Chapter 169: A Sudden Confession
The conversation between Xuanyuan Yu and the emperor began inexplicably, and then ended inexplicably.
The two people who came out of the emperor's bedroom, neither of them paid attention to the thoughtful eyes of the emperor and the eldest princess behind them. Including Xuanyuan, all his thoughts were on Xue'er's words "I'll wait for you outside"!
The night is getting deeper and the wind is getting cooler, but the anger in the man's heart is not something that can be calmed by the cold of this cool autumn night.
On the way back, there was no follow, and Yingli left again after stating everything to Xuanyuan, so out of the emperor's bedroom, there were still only Xuanyuan and Xue'er walking back.
Although the palace lights on both sides of the road have not been extinguished, they are bright and out in the autumn wind, and the leaves that fall when the shadows of the surrounding trees are shaking, suddenly there is a trace of autumn loneliness.
"Why?" Xuanyuan Yu grabbed Xue'er's hand and refused to let go, he asked, there was hurt in his tone, and he was extremely dissatisfied. "Why did you just say 'wait outside'?" Do you just want to be a part of my life? ”
Xue'er didn't know why she just instinctively said a word, which made the other party so unhappy. However, thinking of what happened to the third prince's biological mother, Concubine Yun, the fate of Xuanyuan's biological mother Ruo Zhining, and then thinking about the British princess who seemed to be beautiful but could not hide her haggard heart, she suddenly felt that there seemed to be no good ending for women who were involved with the royal family.
However, thinking of Xuanyuan Yu's affection and protection for herself, her heart was soft again, and thinking of the words that inexplicably echoed in her heart, Xue'er couldn't refuse such a Xuanyuan Yu.
Therefore, when Xuanyuan Yu asked this question so bluntly, a trace of confusion rose in Xue'er's heart again.
Xuanyuan Yu didn't allow her to escape any longer, and he could hear the conversation between the Emperor and the eldest princess clearly: Xue'er couldn't stay in his Yunbo Hall like this all the time, she needed a name!
However, now her mind is so wavering, so that he just wants to give her a name, and he has to think about whether she will refuse and alienate herself!
"If," Xue'er refused to speak, and Xuanyuan didn't rush her, she continued, "You really don't like this luxurious cage, you don't like everything in the court, I give up my current identity-"
This sentence directly startled Xue'er, and almost subconsciously interrupted the other party: "No, no!" ”
Xuanyuan ignored her anxiety and said to herself: "Just now, when you were 'acumulating' your father in the palace, Mr. Ying told me some things. ”
He sighed softly: "This time, Shan Tianying's escape is not something that can be done by relying on a single Lingxin, or a single father and daughter. ”
Xue'er was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect that what he said turned out to be such a question, and she couldn't help but pause and turn her head to look at the man next to her. Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Yu's face instantly floated with a trace of anger: "When it comes to the matter of Shan Tianying, are you so attentive?" ”
This sentence made Xue'er even more confused, and looked at Xuanyuan Yu in confusion, not understanding why the other party suddenly turned his face.
Her indifference made Xuanyuan even more angry, so she also stopped, staring at Xue'er deeply with a pair of dark and deep eyes, as if to swallow her into the turbulent whirlpool: "Can't you give me a little care?" ”
Xue'er looked at Xuanyuan in confusion, but didn't know how to explain: "Xuanyuan ......"
But he didn't want Xuanyuan Yu to turn his head awkwardly again, no longer looking at her, but said angrily: "Here, there is the acquiescence of the emperor, the promotion of Yang Jin, and the promotion of one or more of the three county kings of Zhao Ruixian......
"Something to do with the last Assassin?" Xue'er's mind was racing, and she suddenly remembered that the last time she faced the assassin, Xuanyuan Yu had also mentioned the titles of these three county kings, and even suspected that the assassin was instructed by one of these three people!
Although the old man with the cigarette pouch was once a guest of the British Prince's Mansion, the British King was greedy, greedy, timid, and used to being a dominant family, so he developed a temperament that did not know the height of the sky, although he knew that Xuanyuan Yu threatened his position, so blatantly assassinated with his own disciples, he still couldn't come back.
Xuanyuan Yu nodded and said, "Yes, everyone's ultimate goal is to target me, even if it doesn't kill me, let me have a reputation similar to that of the King of England!" ”
Xue'er was stunned for a moment, and then woke up: The appearance of Xuanyuan Yu will of course have a great impact on the status of the British king, but the British king is stupid and arrogant, although he is angry, but he just wants to deal with Xuanyuan Yu, and he is afraid that he doesn't know where to start for a while.
The other three county kings are different, although they are only county kings, not as good as the status of the British king, but the British king is not successful, which naturally makes them see the opportunity. And the appearance of Xuanyuan Yu naturally stifled all their opportunities and hopes in the cradle, unwilling, unacceptable, unwilling, naturally hoping that Xuanyuan Yu would be as unsuccessful as the King of England, so that they would have the opportunity to become the master of a country!
Therefore, when the relationship between Xuanyuan and the emperor showed a slight sign of easing, they couldn't hold their breath anymore and wanted to borrow a knife to kill people and kill two birds with one stone.
They have coveted it for many years, and naturally they have been operating in the palace for many years, so it is really easy for a pair of patrolling guards to avoid a certain place for a certain period of time.
And Xuanyuan Yu has just arrived, and his foundation is unstable and unpopular, so it is naturally not surprising that his every move is monitored by them. Therefore, after Lingxin went out of the Yunbo Palace, she could "coincidence."
Hearing the conversation between the two little eunuchs who delivered the meal, he could follow him smoothly, and even smoothly pass the news to the father and daughter of Shan Zheng outside. And Yang Jin appeared so timely naturally there is a reason, the most obvious reason is naturally because the emperor instructed him to deliberately negligently, so that Shan Tianying could be rescued, as for the purpose, there must be a purpose, but it is difficult to guess for a while.
And Yang Jin, because of the festival between him and Xuanyuan Yu when he was in the Providence Villa, was likely to cause him to throw himself under the command of a certain county king, so he not only released Shan Tianying, but also pushed the charge of letting Shan Tianying go without permission, and insisted on pushing it on Xue'er's head.
Because of the relationship between Xue'er and Providence Villa, it is logical to let Shan Tianying go without permission. On the other hand, Yang Jin knew in his heart that only Xue'er was Xuanyuan's only weakness, which could make him lose control and do irreparable things!
And the most important point is that Xue'er is not only Xuanyuan's biggest weakness, but also the most feared existence in the emperor's heart, Yang Jin knows that if he puts all the blame on Xue'er's head and makes some trouble for Xue'er, the emperor will definitely turn a blind eye and not hold himself accountable for making decisions without taking responsibility.
Speaking of which, the most innocent person among them is Lingxin, she is the one who has been used and calculated.
When he said this, Xuanyuan sighed helplessly, turned his head to look at Xue'er, his dark and deep eyes were full of seriousness, as if he wanted to keep looking at the heart of the woman in front of him.
"Xue'er, I know that now I am embattled and can't give you a stable life at all. But-" Every time Xuanyuan said a word, his eyes were deeper, as if he wanted to inhale Xue'er deeply, and then store it in his heart forever.
"From the time we met, we have experienced a lot of things between you and me. Whether it is twists and turns, misunderstandings or misunderstandings, my heart has never changed. Xuanyuan Yu looked at the woman in front of him, his expression was extremely solemn and serious, and there was a trace of apprehension during the period, "You, are you willing to stay by my side?" ”
"From now to the future, for a lifetime, even ...... Next life. Xuanyuan's slightly begging gaze traced the beautiful outline of the woman, and the delicate eyebrows and eyes seemed to have been engraved on the soul in a long past life.
This sudden confession caught Cher off guard, and she just looked at the man in front of her in a daze, not knowing how to react at all.
"Girl......" he called softly, his voice low and lingering, all the way into Xue'er's heart, as if to awaken the memories of her previous life.
"Xuanyuan ......" Xue'er almost subconsciously responded, her voice was entangled and tactful, and it seemed to wrap around Xuanyuan's entire name, firmly tying the fate of the two people together.
She asked if she had this man in her heart, and the result was naturally positive, but when she wanted to nod her head slightly, there would always be a pair of eyes that were deep to the extreme, but clean to the extreme.
Those are not Xuanyuan's eyes, she is sure, Xuanyuan's eyes will always be as deep as the sea, as deep as the night, at first glance calm as a frozen lake, but in fact, there is a turbulent dark tide underneath.
The expression of the woman in front of him who wanted to speak and stopped letting Xuanyuan Yu know that he couldn't be in a hurry, so he smiled lightly, and there was a hint of bitterness in that smile, interrupting the other party: "I know what you're worried about, it's okay, I can wait." I'm willing to do as long as you give me a reassuring answer. ”
He also knew that it would be difficult for Cher to make up her mind immediately at this moment, but he didn't want it either. As long as he can understand his mind in her heart, as long as she doesn't refuse or escape, it is already the best result.
As long as she's around him, he's got time to move her, doesn't he?
Regulus once again hung the Demon's Tear around her neck, just as she had done at the beginning, and she could not refuse to tuck it into her slightly open collar and cover it up tightly.
"Remember, this Demon Princess's Tear can only be yours." Xuanyuan's voice was soft and firm, "No matter what others say or do, only this is my true heart. ”
Xue'er didn't refuse, and after listening to Xuanyuanyu's words, she just lowered her head slightly, not daring to look at the other party's eyes.
From Xuanyuan Yu's opening, Xue'er stopped, and the two of them began to move forward hand in hand again, except for that soft call, Xue'er didn't say a word more, and it was as quiet as a lake in early spring.
However, the bottom of her heart was like a lake, and the invisible undercurrent began to surge and churn in all directions, and she could not calm down at all......
