[Chapter 19: Determining Right and Wrong between Men and Women] (1)
After checking that Xiao Jiangyuan was not injured, Li Longji took Xiao Jiangyuan's hand and ran out of the house, but as soon as he took two steps, the roof beams that were burning down suddenly fell and almost hit them. Li Longji took Xiao Jiangyuan on a detour again, and walked all the way out that he could, but he was blocked by the raging fire, and he couldn't take a step forward at all.
After a while, I am afraid that before the people outside can finish demolishing it, the house will collapse by itself. But now there is no way forward, no way back, could it be that they are going to die here?
Suddenly, his palm moved, Li Longji turned his head, only to see Xiao Jiangyuan looking at him steadily, but his footsteps were walking towards the couch. He subconsciously followed, and when he looked down, he saw a stone slab that had been removed, and next to the stone slab was a rather large deep hole. When he first found Xiao Jiangyuan, his attention was on Xiao Jiangyuan alone, and he didn't see it, but he finally noticed it at this moment, and he was stunned: "...... This is the legendary secret passage? ”
"It was the ignorance and delusions of a young child, but I didn't expect it to come in handy now."
The two of them hurried in. Xiao Jiangyuan was determined to ask Li Longji to go in first, although Li Longji was not polite, but after entering, he pressed his back against the cave wall and gave up a large area for Xiao Jiangyuan. Xiao Jiangyuan stepped in, but his foot slipped, and Li Longji immediately took her in his arms.
The cave could only accommodate the body of one person, so after the two of them entered, it was very crowded. Their bodies were clinging to each other. Li Longji held Xiao Jiangyuan's waist with one hand, and was still free with the other, and after moving the stone slab to the top of his head to cover the vital point, he turned to brush Xiao Jiangyuan's messy hair as if inadvertently.
Both men were lying on their sides, with the slate above their heads, closing only half of the hole. The light of the fire penetrated through the cave and shone as day. Li Longji turned his head sideways to look at the brighter and brighter light outside, couldn't help sighing, and chuckled helplessly: "Maybe this time, I'm really going to die here......
There was no panic or fear in that smile, there was a leisurely cloud and breeze like a mountain stream, and he seemed to be talking about the most ordinary thing that did not concern him, talking about his life and death.
After finishing speaking, I thought that Xiao Jiangyuan would respond, but after a while, I didn't hear anything. He turned his eyes to look, but he met Xiao Jiangyuan's gaze squarely.
Xiao Jiangyuan has not left his face since Li Longji appeared in the fire, hugged himself and immediately let go. Her gaze was three points of inquiry, three points of disbelief, and four points of shock, which converged into a very emotional surge.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Li Longji couldn't help but cough lightly a few times when he saw it, and his eyes turned away.
After being silent for a while, he heard Xiao Jiangyuan's voice say steadily: "Ah Lang shouldn't be so impulsive. This fire is bound to alarm the saint and the princess of Zhenguo, if they arrive here first, Ah Lang thinks they will save people first, or will they put out the fire first? ”
"I've handed over the outside matter to Yueniang. If she couldn't even think of this, wouldn't she be her grandmother's niece and granddaughter in vain? As for me," Li Longji snorted lightly, "Of course not, this is the biggest mistake I have ever made in my life." I should have stayed outside and waited for the results. If you are still alive, then I will breathe a sigh of relief and take care of your medical examination, if you are dead, and the corpse cannot be seen male or female, I will take advantage of the situation and lead the ministers to point the finger at Aya and my aunt. But if the corpse can see that you are a woman, I will fall into the well, and as you said before, I will put all the blame on you. This is the most correct choice I should have made. ”
"Since Ah Lang knows, why ......?"
"Is there anything I can do?" Li Longji hooked the corners of his lips self-deprecatingly, "I clearly know what is right and what is wrong, but when I see this room blazing, when I know that you are still in there and did not come out safely, I can't think of anything else except to save you." What to restore the identity of a woman, what to marry me, what the prince Donggong, all disappeared in an instant, until I found you, I came back to my senses, but it was too late, and it was too late to regret it. ”
Xiao Jiangyuan's eyes fluttered, and he pursed his lips and said, "...... In the future, Ah Lang must not do this again. ”
"Do we have a future?" Li Longji shook his head and smiled, "You are really, even for the sake of me forgetting to ask for my life in order to save you, you should gratefully say a few nice words to me, right?" I know you don't have much thought about me, but it's this time, and you're not sure if you can get out or survive, and you're still complaining......"
Before a "me" could be spoken, Li Longji's eyes widened - Xiao Jiangyuan suddenly leaned forward and kissed him on the lips!
Her lips are tiny and warm, with the softest touch. As soon as Li Longji felt that this was not a dream, he immediately tightened his arms, closed his eyes, and deepened the warmth into a scorching heat.
Xiao Jiangyuan just wanted to prove that Li Longji's words were wrong with her actions, she thought that she was just learning from the way she was in the small jungle before, and just pasted it, but she didn't expect Li Longji to do the opposite...... She had never had this experience and feelings, and she just felt that she couldn't breathe. She opened her eyes slightly, wanting to struggle, but felt that the arm around her waist tightened a little, and her eyes were gently covered by the palm of the hot man in front of her.
That's what I had to do...... She tried to learn to respond, and asked Li Longji to let go of her first in a soft way, but she didn't want this to cause another long time. Her head was already a little dizzy, but he was still inadequate, and he didn't come to his senses until something hit the stone bricks above his head.
He hurriedly moved his lips away, leaned into Xiao Jiangyuan's ear, took a deep breath for a long time, and said in a slightly dumb voice: "You...... You're ...... me ...... you are," he smiled, then disenguising himself and stating, "You finally admit it." ”
Seeing Xiao Jiangyuan breathing rapidly, he smoothed her back and said gently, "Don't worry. I originally thought it wasn't worth dying here with you like this, but now I feel that even if I die, it's not so difficult to accept that I didn't die in vain. ”
Xiao Jiangyuan didn't move, and he didn't say anything.
It's just that she missed Li Longye, Li Longji would rush into the fire to save her regardless of his life, although his heart towards her was selfish and full of incomprehension, but he was still able to put his life and death out of the way, I am afraid that it will be the biggest miscalculation in her life, and this miscalculation can subvert everything.
If it was just herself, she didn't want him to die, and he couldn't die, but now, there was nothing she could do but reach out and hug him and rest her head on his shoulder.
Li Longji had never felt such an obedient Xiao Jiangyuan, and he couldn't help but be a little flattered, but the arm that was about to be tightened was a little looser. Thinking of what he had just done and his whole body with hot blood now, his face turned suspiciously red, and he covered his nose with the back of his hand, and coughed lightly: "...... You will never be allowed to do this again. ”
Xiao Jiangyuan naturally knew what Li Longji was talking about, and did not answer.
Li Longji continued: "You don't want to restore your status as a woman, you don't want to marry me, but you like me, don't you?" In this case, those things are easy to discuss, we can discuss them slowly, anyway, there are still many things, and it is not impossible to talk about them when everything is settled. Why do you think that when you die, I will no longer be angry with you, angry with you, and calculating for you? You're all gone, but what about me? ”
Xiao Jiangyuan opened his mouth to say something, but after thinking about it, he was still silent.
His life, his experience, was destined for him not to understand her, unless...... Something big happened that was enough to shake his heart and make him subvert all his cognitions. It's a pity that that kind of thing shouldn't exist, at least in Datang, it shouldn't exist.
"If you don't speak, I'll take you as a default." Li Longji said with a cross eyebrow.
Xiao Jiangyuan had no choice but to say: "Slave maid...... Do all in one's power. ”
"Can't you coax me?" The anger in Li Longji's heart recurred as he spoke, "When is this happening......
Xiao Jiangyuan suddenly raised his head: "When you are rescued!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the sharp blade of a spear was inserted into the middle of the stone brick, and then with a pick, the stone brick and everything pressed on it suddenly flew up, and then was swept away by the spear shaft, and flew aside!
Wang Jun came very quickly.
Li Longji rushed into the fire, and the eunuch who went back to the East Palace to invite her had already said, she only felt that the world was spinning, and as soon as she stabilized, she went back to her room to change into a light Hu clothes, picked up a spear, and ignored the honor guard behind her, and rushed straight to the Yeting Palace.
Seeing that the surroundings were all in order, and some officials who were closer to each other had arrived, all of them greeting Wu Guanyue, Wang Jun's heart was even more chuckled.
San Lang said that she is the crown princess, the future queen, the mother of the Tang Dynasty, and the wife of the Son of Heaven, which is completely different from a concubine like Wu Guanyue. She can't be inferior, she has to cheer up and try to make herself worthy of Saburo.
She immediately raised her head, and walked heroically in front of Wu Guanyue in the eyes of everyone.
Seeing that Wang Jun was coming, Wu Guanyue hurriedly saluted humbly: "Yueniang gave a salute to the crown princess." ”
"Excuse me." Wang Jun looked at the fire scene in a daze, "Hasn't San Lang been rescued yet?" ”
Wu Guanyue was also full of worry: "The fire is too big, and it really can't rush in." ”
"Nonsense!" Wang Jun was so angry for the first time, "Since you were by San Lang's side at that time, why didn't you stop him?!" ”
This matter is the most difficult to explain, and Wu Guanyue didn't bother to explain, so she said: "It's Yueniang's, isn't it, and ask the princess to confess." ”
Those eunuchs could even tell Wang Jun about Li Longji rushing into the fire, so Li Longji naturally wouldn't fail to say anything about leaving everything outside to her before he went in. As long as she has a good attitude and is willing to admit her mistakes, even if she Wang Jun is the crown princess, she can't do anything to herself.
Li Longye came over and said with a sad face: "Third sister-in-law, Ah Yuan is also inside, they haven't come out until now......"
"I've seen the crown princess!" At this time, Yang Siqiao also came over with his righteous sons.
Wang Jun looked at the fire again, and noticed that the eunuch palace people around the fire were dismantling the places that had been extinguished, and the hand holding the spear immediately tightened: "Yang Changshi, you came just in time, I need the help of you and your righteous sons." ”
