"You still want to negotiate terms with me?" Lin Ruo frowned and interrupted Na Ye's words unhappily.

He also kowtowed to the ground in fear, and the cold ground was accompanied by a dull sound. "No, no, no, the little one, the villain just asks, I beg the young lady to let the villain live!"

"Want to live? Then get things done. ”

"Yes, yes......" Na hurriedly agreed.

"Ace, take him to Steward Wang."

Lin Ruo glanced at the guard named "Ah Ce", and the guard understood, and picked up the one who had already been frightened.

"After you go out through this door, what to do and how to say, Steward Wang will teach you. If you want to survive, don't make any mistakes. ”

That's also like garlic.

Lin Ruoyan smiled: "Don't be afraid of being like this. As for me, there are clear rewards and punishments, and I do what I say. As long as you don't make a mistake, when it's done, you can just say what you want. ”

Na also opened his eyes wide, and his gaze fell on Lin Ruo's face, but he suddenly felt a chill enveloping his whole body, hurriedly lowered his head, and responded: "Yes, yes, thank you, thank you, Miss......"

Lin Ruo waved his hand, Wei Ce left the wing room with Naye, and Zhu Xuan also retreated together.

Only Lin Ruo and Murong Chong were left in the empty room.

Murong Chong frowned slightly, and asked, "Is the heavy promise you made to him inappropriate?" ”

Lin Ruo raised his head and smiled wryly: "Really? I just asked him to tell me what he wanted, and I didn't promise him what he wanted, so I gave him anything. ”

“……”

Beat a stick and give a sweet date.

Lin Ruo's majesty and arms have long been used perfectly. He had already lost his mind, and in order to survive, he was naturally at the mercy of Lin Ruo.

Murong Chong originally wanted to ask something, but Lin Ruo couldn't help but sneeze.

"Got a cold?" Murong Chong stretched out his hand and probed Lin Ruo's forehead, but he did not get hot, and his movements were extremely natural.

Lin Ruo rubbed his nose, and there was a little grievance in his slightly red eyes: "No, the smell of charcoal is a bit heavy." ”

The south wing is remote, and there are no people living on weekdays, so there is no Andilong.

At the moment, even if the brazier is lit with good charcoal, the musty smoke mixed with it does not smell good. When there were a lot of people, it didn't feel so obvious, but now that there were only two of them left in the house, the taste was naturally much stronger. Lin Ruo is particularly sensitive to smells, so he is naturally not adaptable.

Murong Chong didn't think much about it, and immediately took the big coat and draped it on Lin Ruo's body.

"Lord, you ......"

"It's warm in the house, and you haven't taken off your hat. When you go out at this moment, you will definitely feel cold. Murong Chong said as a matter of course, helped Lin Ruo tie his belt, put on his hat, and then opened the door.

The cold wind whistled in, stabbing his cheeks. But because he wore an extra coat, Lin Ruo didn't feel cold.

On the contrary, it was Murong Chong, who looked extremely thin next to her bloated.

"Lord Wang, I'll let someone give you ......"

"If you don't want me to get cold, let's go quickly."

Murong Chong clenched Lin Ruo's hand, took her, faced the wind, and walked in great stride.

His tone was calm, but his heart was not as calm as it was on his face.

Lin Ruo was led by him, and followed behind him, he was a little dazed for a while, the soles of his feet were not steady, one slipped, and he almost fell, but he was held firmly by Murong Chong.

"I, I'm fine."

Murong Chong frowned slightly, his hands were held tighter, but his steps were much slower.

When he returned to the room, Lin Ruo hurriedly asked him to sit next to the earth dragon, and hurriedly instructed Zhu Xuan to make ginger tea.

After a busy back and forth, Murong Chong grabbed her sleeve and asked her to sit down, and while helping her untie the strap, he asked with a smile, "Aren't you afraid of the heat?" ”

Lin Ruo was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he was still wearing two large coats, and fine beads of sweat had appeared on his forehead.

The big hat was taken off and put aside, Lin Ruo took out the handkerchief, and when he raised his hand, the handkerchief had already fallen into Murong Chong's hand, and carefully wiped the fine beads of sweat from her forehead for her.

The dark eyes were close at hand, and he even felt the air flow of the other party's exhalation on his face. At such a close distance, Lin Ruo, who prided himself on being thick-skinned, unconsciously felt embarrassed, and his eyes unconsciously turned away.

"Once upon a time, you wouldn't shy away from my scrutiny."

put Juan Pa aside, but Murong Chong didn't pull away.

"I ......"

Without hearing an answer, Murong Chong continued to ask in a low voice, "Why did you change your words and call you the prince again, huh?" ”

Murong Chong's deep voice swirled in his ears, especially the last last note, like a light feather scratching his ears, crispy and itchy.

Lin Ruo didn't know how to answer.

Murong Chong didn't urge, just quietly waited for her answer.

When we first met, her delicate and flying black eyes would always follow him without showing weakness, just as confident and domineering as when I questioned him just now, and the victory was in her hands.

There seems to be something, unconsciously changing, she is changing, and so is he.

If you want to ask him, when Lin Ruo has changed, he can't say; But if you want to ask him if she has changed, he can give a sure answer.

Last night, he thought about it for a night, and completely sorted out all the things between them, from meeting, acquaintance, to acquaintance, only to find that they had so many common experiences: Bian'an City Gate, her aggressiveness, made him a little excited about meeting his opponent; Shangyu flood, her decisiveness and fierceness, made him begin to appreciate her compassion; Suddenly suffering from a chronic illness, her trembling made him unconsciously worried about her; Under the red candle tent, her guidance made him marvel at her amazing talent; In the princess's mansion, her self-sacrifice made him resentful of what happened to her.

The longer I get along with Lin Ruo, the more I can't take my eyes off her. Until yesterday, he saw the note, the paper with the portrait of Chu Haoze, and the irrepressible anger almost swallowed his reason.

He had to admit that he was attracted to her.

And what about her?

So, suddenly, he wanted to confirm something.

Lin Ruo disdains the words of privet and virtue, and sneers at the three from the four virtues, but as a princess, she is generous, gentle and demure, and her words and deeds in front of everyone make people unable to find mistakes.

As I deepened my understanding of her step by step, I got to know the people around her, relatives, friends, confidants, and old people...... He had the idea more and more strongly that he hoped that in her heart, he was different.

Lin Ruo had never seen such a burning and gentle gaze in Murong Chong's eyes, and he felt that it was difficult to resist, and his body subconsciously moved back.

"Lord, you ......"

Murong Chong stretched out his hand, grabbed her, and said in a low but gentle voice: "Ah Ruo, you said that you would not disguise or deceive me, but you only did not say it, and you would not hide it. ”

After being silent for a long time, Lin Ruo admitted calmly: "Yes, if the prince wants to know, I ......"

"I want to know, but I'm not going to force you. When you want to say it, you'll tell me. There was no doubt, just a statement of certainty, and the corners of his mouth were hooked up with a hint of upward arc.

Lin Ruo raised his head and looked at Murong Chong, only glanced at him, and then avoided his gaze. Murong Chong was not annoyed, but the curvature of the corners of his mouth was more obvious.

"But there's one thing I want to know."

"W-What?"

As Murong Chong got a little closer, Lin Ruo's heart jumped. She vaguely guessed what Murong Chong wanted to ask, but she deceived herself and avoided it, making a final struggle.

Bang, bang, bang......

Lin Ruo's heart seemed to be beating, she knew that she wanted to avoid Murong Chong's gaze at this moment, but those dark eyes looked at her motionlessly, so deep that she couldn't take her eyes off.

"Now, is the relationship between you and me just a contract?"

Murong Chong pressed forward step by step with terrifying might, but his tone of voice was very natural and his attitude was very sincere. He expressed his meaning very tactfully, but he believed that Lin Ruo could understand.

Lin Ruo was silent.

On the wedding night, she swore to him that they were just allies, that she would help him sweep away Beiqi and avenge his father, and that he needed to help her find out the truth and protect the Lin family.

She handed him the letter of resignation and the letter of divorce signed with her name on it, and frankly promised that she would leave as long as he met the person he liked.

At that time, did she ever think that the person he liked would be her?

Murong Chong, he is the Rong King of Donglu and the commander of the Tiger Army, with great achievements and no defeat; He is the fourth prince of Donglu, the only king with a different surname in Donglu, and the husband that many women in the boudoir dream of!

She admired and adored him. As for the heart......

Lin Ruo didn't want to go against his will, so he shook his head.

"Then let's go with the flow, okay?" Murong Chong leaned forward slightly, stretched out his hand, and gathered the broken hair around Lin Ruo's ear, and naturally withdrew it without waiting for Lin Ruo to react.

Lin Ruo was silent for a long time, raising his eyes to look at him.

He knew she had a knot, that's why he said it......

Go with the flow, okay?

And what about him? Has the knot in his heart been untied? Or is he not going to solve it?

This thought turned around in his mind a few times, and in the end, Lin Ruo chose to follow his heart and nodded.

Murong Chong looked at her, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became deeper and deeper: "Then, you change your clothes, and I will accompany you to see Midu." ”

"The prince is also going with him?" A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Ruo's eyes.

"Lord Wang?"

Murong Chong smiled playfully when he heard this title.

Although he still couldn't figure out how Lin Ruo planned to use the batch of skins that Li Yan was going to trade with Zeguo to achieve the goal of disintegrating Beiqi, he had already guessed a few points about the purpose of her meeting with Midu.

"The fourth young master of the Wang family, the most beloved is his sister. How could it be possible to watch his Yi'er go to the tiger's den in Longtan alone? Murong Chong narrowed his eyes.

"But, but, Mitsu is your enemy......"

Lin Ruo's eyes widened, looking at Murong Chong's face in front of him, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva very spinelessly.

Murong Chong's expression changed slightly, and he said lightly: "He is King Rong's enemy, not Wang Ji's." ”

At this moment, his identity is Wang Suiyuan, and her identity is Wang Tianyi.

Lin Ruo nodded knowingly: "Since that's the case, then, then I, listen...... Fourth brother's. ”

The corners of Murong Chong's mouth hooked, and there was a satisfied smile in his dark eyes. He took a few steps back, let Lin Ruo stand up, with a smile in his eyes, and said, "Very good." It's windy outside, so Yi'er needs to dress warmly. ”
