Chapter 53: Night Terror (Part II)
Desire is sometimes a knife that kills people without seeing blood, these big men were frightened just now, when they saw Yuwen Xiyue was injured, coupled with Xia Liu's promise, they forgot their fear in a blink of an eye, thinking about Yuwen Xiyue's charming appearance and bewitching body, their hearts itched again.
Yuwen Xiyue listened to Xia Liu's words in the dark, and she was also angry with her silver teeth, but now she was dizzy, and she couldn't distinguish between east and west, north and south, and she really didn't have the strength to go out and kill this disgusting person.
Xia Liu is very aware of Yuwen Xiyue's personality, seeing that she actually listened to her words and didn't jump out immediately, she knew that she was indeed at the end of the crossbow, and her heart was a little settled, but if she continued to spend it with her, it was not a way, there was still an emperor waiting for him to kill.
Quietly pulling Wang Hu's clothes, Xia Liu said in a low voice: "You guys are here, and when she falls, you can take care of it yourself, I'll go and light the gunpowder first, blow up the dog emperor into the sky, and then let's go back to Jiannan together." ”
In the grove outside the village, people are dying one by one, but at this time, in Li Guanqi's room in the village, it is a different scene.
In this night that was destined to be unpeaceful, Li Guanqi actually didn't have the heart to sleep peacefully. From the time Yuwen Xiyue told him that the court had agreed to the exchange, his heart had never stopped turning over the river and the sea.
The first is whether he can return to the palace safely, which is still a question. Before the exchange, he didn't really worry about this problem, because at that time he had the value of being alive (of course, he didn't know that Xia Liu didn't want him to live). But once the exchange began, how could Yuwen Xiyue and his gang tolerate him returning to the palace safely, and then send troops to encircle and suppress the cottage? So although it was possible to return to the palace tomorrow, he was not happy at all, but was really worried for the first time.
Secondly, even if you return to the palace safely, how to deal with Yuwen Xiyue is also a problem. Let's not say that Yuwen Xiyue is kind to him, but purely emotionally, he also likes Yuwen Xiyue more than he hates it (of course, he doesn't know that Yuwen Xiyue is so murderous!). )。 But Yuwen Xiyue is an "anti-thief" after all, and as the emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty, he should never let the anti-thief go unpunished.
There is another problem that makes him feel more headaches, and that is Liu Hanyan. The two have gone through so many twists and turns, and he doesn't want to let her suffer the slightest bit of hurt and grievance no matter what. But now that she is the emperor, Liu Hanyan's identity as a woman in the Qinglou has become the biggest obstacle between the two. He could imagine that opposition in the palace and in the court would definitely come to him like a tidal wave.
Tossing and turning on the bed, until the third watch, Li Guanqi still couldn't sleep, but there was a gentle knock on the door.
"Who?" Li Guanqi turned over, sat up, and asked vigilantly.
"It's me!" The voice is gentle and nice.
"Smoking?" Li Guanqi asked with a little surprise. Although the two are now in love, except for a fierce kiss the day before yesterday, the two still treat each other politely. Now in the middle of the night, Hanyan came to his room alone, and he couldn't help but feel strange.
The door opened, but Liu Hanyan did not enter the room, but stood outside the threshold, looking at Li Guanqi in front of her stupidly, but her face was much paler than before.
In the days when she was separated from Li Guanqi, she had imagined countless times about the reunion of the two and the beauty after the reunion. In fact, when Yuwen Xiyue brought this man to her eyes again, she felt that it was the happiest moment in her life.
She originally knew that Li Guanqi must be from a rich background, and with her own identity, it would be difficult to marry into his family, but as long as Li Guanqi loved her, she didn't care about her status. In fact, at the moment of reunion, Li Guanqi's performance proved that he was indeed in love with her, and she thought that she had finally kept the clouds open and saw the moon.
But......
But Li Guanqi is the emperor, which is something she never expected. Liu Hanyan knew what the word emperor represented. This means that the man in front of her is the most noble person in the world, but he is in a lowly position. The son of a big family can also have an outer room, but the emperor, how can the emperor do such a thing? I'm afraid that when the time comes, those high-crowned ministers will drown themselves with just spit.
"Why did you fall in love with this man who you should never love? Is it really as the godmother said, that his heart is higher than the sky, and his life is thinner than paper'? Thinking about it, a tear had fallen from the corner of her eye, and she hurriedly reached out to wipe it away.
But standing face to face, how could Li Guanqi not see her condition? Gently pulling Liu Hanyan, Li Guanqi reached out to help her wipe away her tears, and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" ”
"I have something to tell you." Liu Hanyan broke free from Li Guanqi's embrace and said.
Li Guanqi smiled lightly: "What's so urgent?" Can't wait for tomorrow to talk about it during the day? ”
"Brother Li, I want to ask you something?" Liu Hanyan raised his misty eyes, looked directly into Li Guanqi's eyes and said.
"Just ask." Li Guanqi faintly felt that something was not quite right, because Liu Hanyan's name for him suddenly changed, but he couldn't say what was wrong, so he had to take one step at a time.
"When you go back, will you marry me?" Liu Hanyan had the courage to say this, and his slightly pale face also added a few red halos.
"......" Li Guanqi didn't answer, he didn't know how to answer. He wanted to answer yes, but his identity meant that it wasn't so easy to say. Don't think that the emperor can do whatever he wants, the real management of the past dynasties is actually a huge bureaucratic system, if you can't control this group of bureaucrats, the emperor's rule will immediately lose its effectiveness. And the so-called ministers will definitely not allow the emperor to marry a Qinglou woman.
Liu Hanyan sighed slightly, and said softly: "Brother Li, don't you even know how to lie to me?" ”
"......" Li Guanqi couldn't wait to find a piece of tofu to kill him. Is there anything more humiliating in the world than not being able to promise one's loved ones?
Liu Hanyan looked at Li Guanqi and asked again: "Brother Li, you like the He family's sister very much, right?" ”
Li Guanqi nodded ashamedly and said heavily: "She is also a poor person, I treat her as a relative." At this time, his mind was completely confused, and he had no time to think about how Liu Hanyan knew what his "wife's" surname was.
"I know, she's got to be a good girl." Liu Hanyan smiled sincerely, "It's a pity that my life is not as good as hers." ”
"Don't be cranky." Li Guanqi is already starting to be a little at a loss.
"I'm not cranky." Liu Hanyan gently grabbed Li Guanqi's hand and said softly: "I know very well the truth of knowing fate and cherishing blessings, and I am already satisfied with being able to make you fall in love with me in this life." ”
