Chapter 271: Zhao Instantaneously Seeks the Emperor's Seclusion (3)
So the bed is not a bed, it's all a secondary thing. When the two of them show up, they can meet the conditions for exposure.
"Search and search." Zhao Xiangling picked up a straw and put it in his mouth, crossed his legs and said, "Could it be that we don't live well, so we won't be searched?" ”
Anyway, sooner or later they will be found, but they and Ruiqing are more low-key and will not be found so quickly.
"Then we'll have to wait until today." Li Ruiqing pulled out the straw in her mouth, "Do you know how dirty this thing is, just put it in your mouth?" ”
Zhao Xiangling squinted and smiled: "Isn't this thinking about things?" Didn't pay attention to that. ”
She turned over and lay beside Li Ruiqing's hand: "Although Zhao Xian should be looking for us all over the street now, we don't necessarily need to run around the street like this." ”
Li Ruiqing closed his eyes and replied lightly: "I know." ”
"Then why are you ......?"
"Because." Li Ruiqing closed his eyes, pinched the back of Zhao Xiangling's neck accurately, and leaned her against his chest, "I want to stay alone with you for a while." ”
There are no guards, no retinues, not emperors, and no left ministers.
Zhao Xiangling understood what he meant, and felt that his heart was soft, and he was a little sweet. She put her face against his chest beautifully, looked at his long eyelashes, and smiled: "What? Life in the Sycamore Palace is not to your liking? ”
"When you first became the crown prince." Li Ruiqing put his hands under his head and recalled, "I thought about taking you out of the palace." Take you to live the life of idle clouds and wild cranes. ”
Idle clouds and wild cranes? Zhao Xiangling smiled. She didn't seem to dare to think about that kind of day. I used to enjoy some of the three years I spent in the Sword Shadow Pavilion.
"Xiang Zero, do you remember what you told me at the time?" Li Ruiqing tilted his head and suddenly asked Zhao Xianglingdao.
Zhao Xiangling thought for a while and said with a smile: "I said, this is my own volition." ”
"Yes." Li Ruiqing sighed, "I was looking for you with great interest, but you woke me up with a basin of cold water." ”
"You said that you are the prince of the southern kingdom, and you will be the monarch of the southern kingdom in the future, and you will no longer be willful and leave the palace with me, let alone be as childlike as before."
Zhao Xiangling remembered these words vaguely, she turned her head to look at Li Ruiqing, who was quite emotional.
Li Ruiqing said: "When I entered the palace to see you, you were wearing a yellow robe, which made me feel that the distance between us suddenly became farther away, and I am afraid that I will never be able to approach you again in the future." Childhood playmates may only be memories. ”
"No, it won't." Zhao Xiangling smiled and reached out to pinch his cheek, "Ruiqing will always be Ruiqing, not because of Zuo Xiang, just Ruiqing." ”
"But the estrangement you showed at the time was not like that." Li Ruiqing said, "So I was so angry that I turned around and left, and you didn't stop me." ”
"Yes?" Zhao Xiangling smiled. She always felt that Li Ruiqing was settling old accounts with her.
"Think about it, is this your style?" Li Ruiqing rolled his eyes and looked at Zhao Xiangling, "I was so angry at that time, I had a fight with Zhao Xiangwan when I left the palace." ”
Zhao Xiangling: "......" She knew why Zhao Xiangwan was carried back a few years ago, but she didn't expect it to be Li Ruiqing's handiwork.
However, the two of them have always been equal in martial arts, and Bi Ruiqing has also been lying solid for two months.
"And then?" Zhao Xiangling avoided the topic of fighting.
After all, it was her brother who was beaten, and she would laugh unceremoniously if she listened to it again, which would be too bad for Zhao Xiangwan to lose face.
"Later?" Li Ruiqing raised his eyebrows, "Later, I was lifted." ”
Zhao Xiangling remembered that Li Ruiqing was the year after she became the crown prince.
Therefore, the reason why Li Ruiqing will join the government is all because she will be the emperor?
"Yes." Seeing Zhao Xiangling's doubts, Li Ruiqing affirmed, "The reason why I did all this is because of you. ”
Zhao Xiangling was shocked, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
She may not have thought of it, but she never thought about it. And Li Ruiqing is introverted by nature, and rarely brings this matter to the surface.
"I also volunteered." Li Ruiqing smiled, making Zhao Xiangling feel a lot more relaxed.
She smiled: "Good manner, why are we suddenly so serious?" ”
"To Zero, I just want to ask you, if time were to go back again, would you do it again?" Li Ruiqing did not cooperate with Zhao Xiangling to ease the atmosphere, but became more and more serious.
The more ominous premonitions Zhao Xiangling had in his heart, the more he didn't know where this feeling came from.
If you want to talk about danger, she and Li Ruiqing have already escaped Zhao Xian's control. If he returns to the south now, Zhao Xian can't help them.
To talk about traps...... The traps she and Ruiqing have seen are not thousands but hundreds, when are they so heavy?
Zhao Xiangling wanted to find a cheerful way to mix up this topic, but looking at Li Ruiqing's serious expression, he took it back if he had anything to say.
Raising her eyebrows, she said with a straight face: "In fact, where do I have any other choice?" ”
She was the only descendant of the Southern Imperial Family, and if she didn't take the throne, her brother, her parents, and herself would all die at the hands of the last person to ascend to the throne.
She has no way back, and she can't be willful.
"Hmm." Li Ruiqing raised his hand and gently hugged her. The unique fragrance of straw was also mixed with the medicinal fragrance with his movements, and slowly burrowed into Zhao Xiangling's nose.
It made her feel a little sleepy.
Li Ruiqing's voice in his ears was still ringing low: "That's why I hated Zhao Xiangwan at that time." His freedom is obtained by binding you. He was the one who was supposed to stay in the palace. ”
As a woman, it was already difficult for Zhao Xiangling to ascend to the throne, as an elder brother, Zhao Xiangwan not only did not help, but threw the whole stall to Zhao Xiangling, who was only ten years old at the time.
His brother is really incompetent.
In the haze, Zhao Xiangling muttered: "Don't blame my brother, he is actually for my good." ”
Li Ruiqing didn't speak, but just hugged her tighter.
In fact, she is still the same as before, no matter what, she can make the most correct choice.
If so, then he has nothing to worry about.
Li Ruiqing closed his eyes, leaned on Zhao Xiang's zero hair, almost greedily sniffed the light incense, and rubbed her face.
"To zero, if one day ...... You don't blame me, do you? Li Ruiqing asked softly, as if he was asking her, but more like he was asking himself.
He furrowed his brows and hid all the expressions on his face, so that no one could see his expression, and no one could understand what was going on in his mind.
It was getting late, and the dilapidated straw hut could even see a corner of the sky, the moon was gone, only a few stars were scattered in the sky, as if it had been abandoned.
Just like the two most noble people in the south, they were also temporarily abandoned in this humble corner, hugging and sleeping.
Because of Li Ruiqing by her side, Zhao Xiangling's sleep was the most solid sleep she had in recent times, and she didn't wake up until three o'clock in the morning.
