Chapter 21: Women Like Mirrors
Stunned, so soon to start the temptation? She tilted her head, looked out the window, and said casually something inconsequential: "Today, the weather is so good!" ”
Zong Zheng squinted his phoenix eyes, slowly stood up, and opened the window completely, and the room instantly became extremely bright. The bright sunlight hit him, enveloping him with a warm yellow halo, but it couldn't hide the cold breath that had already penetrated deep into his bones and blood. This woman's defensiveness is really not ordinary! He changed the subject and said, "Why did people come to this king?" Why are you so sure that this king will save you? ”
People like him are only used to controlling others, and they don't like to be controlled by others. Man Yao knew it in his heart, smiled lightly, put on his robe on the ground, walked to the window and stood side by side with him, and said lightly: "I'm not sure if Your Highness will come, but I know very well that you are the only one who can take me out of prison." ”
"Why?" Zongzheng didn't look back, and his voice was still cold.
Outside the window, the flowers are splendid, the branches and leaves are luxuriant, and the clear water reflects the blue sky. Man Yao turned his head, looked at the man's perfect side face, and said with a light smile: "Because you know that I am not a murderer, and because you are a chess player...... Soft spot. He will save her, not only because of the sympathy of his opponent, but also because of the secrets he wants to know.
Zong Zheng looked at her sideways, his eyes were deep and difficult to understand, and he said: "Women are too stupid and easy to annoy. However, too smart...... It's not good, it makes people feel tired. You can, appropriately...... Be stupid! "They are very cautious people, and every word has to be measured against each other.
The same dark eyes looked at each other. A pair seems to be clear, but in fact it is a flow of wisdom; A pair of warmth reflecting the sun, but still as cold as a cold pool. Her gaze seemed to look through his eyes, into his heart. His gaze seemed to look through her body, to her soul. In the air, there was silence.
The wind rose, and out of nowhere, a leaf rolled up, floating between their gaze. Raising her hand, the green leaves fell on her white jade palm, which was very beautiful. It's easy to make people feel the urge to hold that leaf along with that slender and beautiful hand.
Zongzheng retracted his gaze without worry, turned his head and continued to look at the scenery of the garden outside the window, his eyes drifted, and he couldn't lock on to one place.
Man Yao raised his eyes slightly, looking at the floating clouds in the sky, and the sky was endless. Does it make people feel tired to get along with her? If she could, she would also like to live a simpler life. However, in this world, if you are not smart enough to deal with people from the royal family, you may lose your life at any time. She hooked her lips lightly and laughed at herself, "Once...... Some people say that I am like a mirror! "How the people outside the mirror treat her, she in the mirror will be treated the same. Because she is a person with a strong sense of self-protection! Even if she is hurt, she will not hate, but chooses to forget, completely forget. Because if you hate someone, you also need to pay your feelings, and you will be tired.
Mirror?! Zong Zheng was stunned for a moment, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Listening to you say that, it's still the king's, isn't it?" ”
Man Yao smiled lightly: "Don't dare! It's just that you, Your Highness, have been tempted everywhere, telling me how to ...... Back to be honest? ”
Zong Zheng's carefree eyes swirled in her face, this time, her gaze was calm, and behind the calmness, there was a vicissitudes that were too late to put away. He looked at her for a long time, and then suddenly laughed. He frowned, laughing inexplicably.
Zong Zheng Wuwu suddenly took her hand, his body stiffened, and he was pulled back like that, listening to him say as he walked: "Your body is just healing, you need to rest more." ”
She really couldn't keep up with the shift in his thinking. His gaze was so gentle, but there was no warmth, just like his hand, cold and cold. She suddenly wondered, what kind of warmth is needed to restore such a hand to a normal temperature?
Zong Zheng helped her back to the bed, and saw that she had been looking at him holding her hand, and looked thoughtful, so he asked, "What, not used to it?" ”
It's not that I'm not used to it, it's very unaccustomed! His moodiness, she can adapt, but his gentleness from time to time makes her a little at a loss and can't keep up with his rhythm. She searched for words and spoke slowly, "Your Highness......
"When there is no one in the future, you can call me by my name!" An irrefutable tone, this time, he said it seriously. softened his voice and said, "Slowly you will get used to it." Aman, you ...... Rest first, I'll come back to see you in the afternoon. With that, he let go of her hand, smiled lightly, and without waiting for her to say anything, he had already turned to leave. Hooked lips, maybe getting used to a woman, not as hard as he imagined, go with the flow.
Leaning lightly on the bed rail, his fingertips still lingering on his coldness, his eyes looked at his elegant back that was gradually moving away, stunned. Think back to the different sides of him every time we met. Once, in the palace hall, he was arrogant and domineering, but in fact, he was secretly competing with the emperor, what kind of hatred would make a person avoid seeing his father in such an extreme way? The second time, he was indifferent and deep, acting ruthlessly, treating women as snakes and scorpions, but showing mercy to the Nine Emperor Brothers, who were not born of one mother; Three times, in Longyue Tea Garden, he saw through her ingenuity in designing the dark entrance passage at a glance, and the sentence "Liulimu, Yuehua" praised her not too tacky, and "women should be like this" is even more to break the fact that she is dressed as a man. After tasting the fruit tea, the light of the eyes dimmed the brilliance, and the nostalgia and sadness hidden in the depths of the eyes, what is it for? In that half moon, wandering in the tea garden, Qingxiao and lonely figure, occasionally raised his eyes to look at her, with exploration and expectation. On the last day, he said that she should wait at home to marry and have children, but in her answer that violated the modern concept of women, he was not surprised, and smiled and said that he would teach her to play chess. Thinking about it, perhaps every step was his careful temptation. But why did he go to such great lengths to find a modern man?
