Chapter 272: The Heart Was Stolen
After saying this, Shen Changge opened the door and walked straight out, leaving Shen Yiqing standing alone.
His angular face was shrouded in terrifying gloom, and in his deep phoenix eyes, there was an endless dark tide surging.
The hands hanging down at his side were clenched tightly, and the green tendons on the back of his hands were bulging, which looked a little terrifying.
Suddenly, he raised his right fist violently and landed a heavy fist on the round table beside him, shattering the solid round table in a daze.
The wooden thorn stabbed into the back of his hand, but he didn't realize it, and let the blood slowly seep out.
"Shen Changge, what should this king do with you?"
Muttering to himself, he suddenly tilted his head back and took a heavy deep breath.
Immediately, he walked out of the room.
As soon as he walked out, he saw Mo Chu who came in a hurry.
"Something?"
Listening to his cold and penetrating voice, Mo Chu suddenly shook his head and looked at him carefully.
Seeing that his face was gloomy as if a storm was coming, and thinking of the same ugly face of the prince just now, Mo Chu suddenly understood.
Presumably the two of them quarreled.
Especially when he saw Shen Yiqing's blood-stained right hand, Mo Chu was even more sure of this guess.
But in my heart, I was puzzled.
I just came back, and I was fine before, why did the prince and His Royal Highness quarrel?
But Mo Chu didn't dare to ask more, and responded: "Your Highness ordered your subordinates to take the poison prepared by Your Highness." ”
Glancing at him, Shen Yiqing didn't speak, opened his slender legs, bypassed him and walked straight away.
After he left, Mo Chu felt that the cold aura that lingered around him dissipated, and his heart could finally be put down.
Walking into the room quickly, Mo Chu couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the round table broken into several pieces.
"This ...... Was it the king's doing? Mo Chu couldn't help but speak, "It seems that the prince and His Royal Highness are arguing a little bit this time." ”
But he only sighed, then picked up the poison that Shen Changge had already put away, turned around and walked out of the room.
……
At night, the imperial city retreats from the hustle and bustle of the day and becomes particularly quiet.
Occasionally, I can only hear the sound of the husband beating the watchman, and the barking of the dog that is awakened by the husband.
In the southeast direction of the imperial city, there is a bell tower, and on the top floor hangs a large bell of several hundred catties.
On weekdays, the bell tower is hardly visited by anyone other than the people in charge of cleaning.
But at this moment, a slender figure was sitting alone on the cold floor of the top floor, lazily leaning against the mahogany railing.
I saw Shen Changge sitting dejectedly, his left leg straight out, his right leg bent, and a small wine jar in his right hand, hanging on his right knee.
And beside her, there were several jars of wine that had not yet been opened, and several jars that were already empty.
Because she had drunk a lot of wine, her face was a little flushed, her eyes were misty, and she was obviously a little drunk.
When Mo Chu found her, what he saw was that she was like this with wine.
"Your Highness."
Placing the box containing the poison on the ground, Mo Chu stepped forward and snatched the wine jar from her hand.
"You can't drink anymore."
Shen Changge struggled to open a pair of hazy eyes, staring at Mo Chu deadly.
It wasn't until she saw him clearly that she grinned: "It turned out to be Mo Chu, you came just in time to drink with me." ”
As she spoke, she directly picked up a jar of unopened wine and handed it to him.
"Tonight, we're going to get drunk."
Mo Chu took the wine jar and put it down casually, frowning and looking at her: "Your Highness, you are already drunk, you can't drink anymore, and if you drink it any more, it will hurt your body." ”
"Who said I was drunk?" Shen Changge glared at him angrily, "I can still drink!" I'm not drunk with a thousand cups! ”
Listening to her nonsense and looking at her fluttering eyes, Mo Chu knew that she must be drunk.
But he couldn't stand the drunken person's absence, so he could only sit cross-legged and guard her.
"Your Highness, will your subordinates send you back to the East Palace?"
Although it is a little difficult to enter the palace now that the palace gate is closed, it is not a way to let His Highness continue to drink like this.
"No, I don't want to go back!" Shen Changge waved his right hand and almost hit Mo Chu's face, "I haven't drunk enough!" Mo Chu, are you my friend? If you're my friend, drink with me! ”
As she spoke, she leaned over to Mo Chu slightly, squinting her drunken eyes slightly, staring at Mo Chu deadly.
Looking at her expectant appearance, Mo Chu sighed helplessly, took a jar of wine, uncovered the sealing mud on it, and raised his head and took a few sips.
Spilled liquor slid down his neck, wetting his collar.
After drinking nearly half a jar of wine in one go, Mo Chu put down the jar and wiped the wine from the corner of his mouth casually with his sleeves.
"Do you think I'm your friend?" With his eyes fixed on Shen Changge, Mo Chu spoke indignantly.
At this moment, in his eyes, Shen Changge was no longer the prince he wanted to be loyal to, but a friend with troubles to express.
All he has to do is listen to his friend's troubles and find a way to enlighten her.
"Enough friends!" Shen Changge laughed, "Keep drinking!" ”
As she spoke, she picked up a jar of wine, touched the jar of wine at Mo Chu, and drank it in a big gulp.
So, the two of them drank like this, one jar and one jar, until there was not much left of a dozen jars of wine.
"Hiccup."
Shen Changge burped, and the sky-high smell of wine instantly diffused out.
"Mo Chu, do you know how annoying I am?" Shen Changge poked the position of his heart with his left index finger, "I hurt so much here, it hurts so much that I'm about to die." ”
Mo Chu was also a little drunk, but compared to her, his consciousness was relatively clear.
"Why does it hurt?"
"Because, my heart has been stolen."
"Who stole it?"
"By Shen Yiqing's bastard!"
It is said that she spits out the truth after drinking, and listening to her words, Mo Chu's wine instantly sobered up more than half.
He looked at her in surprise and asked tentatively, "Lord Wang?" How could the prince steal your heart? ”
"Because my heart is full of him." Shen Changge raised his drunken and hazy face, and looked at Mo Chu for a moment, "I like him, I love him, but I can't tell him." ”
At this moment, Mo Chu's wine was completely sober, and he stared at her dumbfounded, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
After a while, he said, "But, the prince is your imperial uncle, how can you like him?" ”
"You're right." Shen Changge stretched out a finger and pointed it at him slightly, "So I can't tell him, I can't let him know that I like him too." Do you know Mo Chu? He told me that he liked me, and I wanted to tell him that I was too, but I couldn't do that, I couldn't be so selfish, I couldn't hurt him. ”
With that, her eyes began to redden.
Listening to her somewhat sobbing voice, looking at her sad expression, Mo Chu also felt empathy.
But there are some doubts in my heart, is the prince really drunk?
But why does it feel like it's sober when you say it?
