Looking at the incense burner in front of him, the emperor's eyes were alienated and a little distracted, thinking that the sandalwood in the middle was always lit by Shen Yu, but the future was already another identity, and it was impossible to have anything to do with himself......

Since Shen Su completely tore his face with the emperor, the latter has been difficult to let go, and it seems that he can't get out of the sadness in his heart for a long time.

Looking at his sad appearance, Xie Lingxu didn't know what to say at this moment, being betrayed by the closest person, I am afraid that the taste is like piercing the intestines.

"I have mistaken Shen Su for so many years, and he is still being used in the end."

"Your Majesty, although he doesn't mean anything to you, he has protected you for so many years. You don't have to be kind to him, but you have to be relieved and don't be too yourself. ”

The emperor smiled faintly, but the smile was bitter, he got up and walked to Xie Lingxu, and couldn't help but caress her shoulder:

"Lingxu, I only give my heart to you alone, don't you leave me behind, okay?"

The corners of Xie Lingxu's eyes lifted slightly, and his fiery gaze made people's hearts palpitate, and he was no longer willing to live up to his expression.

"Hmm."

The emperor's fingertips moved slightly, and the former's faint response was already hard to find, the person who was once estranged is now close at hand, and at this moment, I only hope that she will never leave her for a second, and she will be with her forever in this life-

"Lingxu, do you remember last year when you looked at the peony in the garden?"

"What?"

Seeing her smile awkwardly, the emperor couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips slightly:

"Forget about it, let's go again today."

"Flower viewing?"

"With you."

Seeing that the gorgeous peony flowers were adorned with branches, delicate and blooming, Xie Lingxu's eyes moved slightly, Fang recalled the scene when he was here with the emperor, but he didn't know his identity, and thought that the one who was playing with him was just that innocent and innocent Luo Fan.

Xie Lingxu: "Do you like this flower very much?" ”

The emperor lowered his eyes, his eyes were slightly cold:

"They told me that my mother liked peonies the most, and that the flowers in this garden were planted for her by the first emperor."

"Hmm......" Xie Lingxu bowed slightly, secretly thinking that the emperor must also be concerned about his mother, whom he had never met......

"I don't know why, standing here, I seem to feel her breath in the air, this is the place she comes to most often, and probably the quietest place in this palace."

The emperor smiled, and then said as if he were a little self-deprecating:

"Probably just thinking about it, this scene is just an ordinary scene, and this flower is just an ordinary flower."

"It's good that you think it's special, why should you worry about the eyes of others."

"I don't care about the criticism of the world, I only care about you."

Seeing that his face was not red and his heart was not beating when he said sincerely, Xie Lingxu couldn't help coughing a few times, but when he came back to his senses, he was grabbed by the emperor's slender five fingers...... The eyes of the person in front of him were soft and tender, and he gradually approached him, and the faint sandalwood stirred the air ambiguously......

Xie Lingxu's pupils shrank, and he held his breath, only to feel that the person in front of him had unconsciously shattered the strict barrier in his heart, allowing him to let go of his indifferent and resolute defense.

…… His face gradually got closer, his breath gradually became clear, and Xie Lingxu's back tightened, and he couldn't suppress his heart beating wildly at this moment-

"There are mosquitoes!"

Taking a step back awkwardly, Xie Lingxu flashed the air in front of him, hastily avoiding the former's approach, and he didn't want to see the red ear roots......

Xie Lingxu clenched his fists, opened his eyes in a panic, and lamely explained the red tide on his cheeks-

"It's so hot, I'm ......"

He was just halfway through his words, but he felt that his warm palm stroked the back of his neck without saying anything, and his wrist exerted a slight force, and he was about to press himself forward-

The emperor didn't do anything out of the ordinary, only gently kissed Xie Lingxu's forehead...... At this moment, I don't know how long I have been waiting patiently.

His soft lips pressed against his skin, and a brief touch was enough to make the heartstrings tighten. Xie Lingxu's pupils shrank sharply, and she was as quiet as an ice sculpture in her arms, but her whole body suddenly lost the slightest strength.

The air grew with emotion, stirring up the quiet atmosphere all around, and the deep breath became a little warm and dense for a while......

The former's hand on the back of his neck finally broke away, and his slightly closed eyes slowly lifted, but the burning that remained on his forehead burned for a long time, and the imprint in his heart was difficult to subside. Xie Lingxu looked at the person in front of him steadily, not knowing what kind of expression he should have in front of him at this moment......

"Lingxu, I've finally waited for you, haven't I?"

The emperor stared at himself, and finally stretched his eyebrows, revealing a long-lost smile...... He smiled so heartily, but so bitter, as if this moment of joy had exhausted all the effort of this life, and the mustard buried deep in his heart was finally removed, but he didn't know how long such a rare warmth could last......

At this moment, I longed for it but I was also afraid, afraid of what was secretly buried in my heart and secretly bred......

His thoughts were still a little confused, Xie Lingxu was in the long pavilion by himself, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a sneaky figure flashing outside the treasury where the tribute in the palace was stored...... The doubts in his heart instantly swept away the remaining affection and sweetness in his mind, Xie Lingxu's lips were tightly closed, and he immediately followed......

………………

"Who?"

scolded sharply, but saw the black-clothed masked man in front of him instantly backhand slash at him, Xie Lingxu took a step back neatly, and then swept the man's eyebrows with a wave of the reckless sword in his hand, and the sharp blade was slightly raised, and the black gauze he was hiding in front of him was lifted......

"It's you ——!"

Looking at Cheng Qi standing in front of him, Xie Lingxu couldn't help but be surprised,

"I haven't seen you for many days, but the little girl has grown a lot of kung fu!"

Looking back at the fact that no one had broken in behind him, Xie Lingxu moved closer to him, and said with a solemn expression:

"What are you doing in the storeroom!"

The corners of the former's lips lifted slightly: "Master Xie, have you forgotten our previous agreement?" ”

Hearing this, Xie Lingxu couldn't help frowning: "You can't be so blatant about this dark Chen Cang!" Afraid that others won't know that I'm complicit with you? ”

Looking at the pale-faced woman in front of him, Cheng Qi had a calm face: "Then Lord Xie shouldn't leave here quickly." ”

Xie Lingxu shook his head and couldn't help but sigh secretly: "Cheng Qi, you are so restrained, at most I will turn a blind eye to what you do, if you are discovered, I will definitely not show mercy." ”

"I naturally know the morality on the rivers and lakes, don't worry, I won't make you too embarrassed."

However, he actually got into such trouble, Xie Lingxu thought that he was unlucky, turned around and walked forward......
