With his words, a cold breath lingered on the tip of her nose, slowly burrowing into her sanity.

She thought it was from the precious spices on his clothes, only to find out later that it was the smell of his skin. Like him, so unique, so untouchable, she does not allow the slightest refusal and resistance.

She asked him, "Do you miss me?" ”

He reached out and lifted her into his lap.

His arms were solid and steady, and he raised his eyes to look at the person in his arms, and spat out a sentence that made his face blush and his heart beat from between his lips: "Every finger is thinking." ”

The air in the curtain froze for a moment, and for a moment there was only the sound of intertwined breathing. She put her arms around his neck, hung her head, and whispered to him, "Me too." ”

As if to confirm the answer, he breathed a little closer, and asked her, "What do you think of me?" ”

She was forced by him to run away, and kissed him lightly on the cheek, and the kiss was like a wet rain in the season of apricot blossoms, with a little dampness and coolness, and went straight into people's hearts and spleens.

Since she was intimate with him, there was no reason why he should not return it, but compared to her extremely restrained kiss, his return was much more straightforward and domineering.

He pressed down on her lips, rubbing her lips and commanding in a low voice: "Shaowei, open your mouth." ”

She closed her eyes, sank into his arms, and honestly exchanged a wet kiss with him. When it was over, the two of them looked at each other in a messy breath, and there was a deep affection in each other's eyes.

"Shen Yun." She spoke first, "When did you fall in love with me?" ”

Maybe he liked her face from the beginning, but it wasn't the same as falling in love with her. She remembered that before going to Zhejiang, he was unapologetic to her, and later some deviant behaviors were also more teasing.

Perhaps, until now, he has not really fallen in love with her. She knew that a smart woman shouldn't get to the bottom of it, but at this moment, she just wanted that clear heart.

He asked her rhetorically, "Does this answer matter to you?" ”

Her eyes lit up and she said, "Maybe not that important, but, I'd love to know." ”

Shen Hanxi wondered, when did he fall in love with her.

Perhaps, it was when she kissed her for the first time, perhaps, when she was finally willing to tell him his name, or perhaps, in some not-so-profound moment. But if he were to decide now, he thought, he should have loved her deeply when he first met her—there were so many maybes, so many uncertainties, and why not grow longer in love?

He didn't want to give her this frivolous answer, and after careful consideration, he said slowly: "You just need to know that when you were still guarding against me, I already had a lot of thoughts, and it was a little earlier than you accepted me." Grabbed her hand and kissed her finger gently, "For a person like me, feelings are about hell, because it will slowly deepen, slowly hurt people, and one day it will become a Ling Chi knife, cutting flesh and bones." When I meet you, I don't even have a second choice, you say, am I pitiful or not? ”

These words made people tremble, and she hurriedly raised her hand to cover his mouth, and frowned: "My lord is talking nonsense again." ”

He only bent his eyes and did not refute.

She calmed down her heart palpitations, put her hand down from his mouth, and asked him: "Shen Yun, tell me honestly, do you want to be a powerful minister above ten thousand people under one person, or ...... Are you no longer willing to just be someone else's courtier? ”

She was very bold in asking this question, but he only hooked the corners of his lips and said idly: "If you succumb to others, your heart will naturally be unstable all the time." Even if it is a successive minister, once the surname is changed in this world, the wealth and merits accumulated in that generation will be a passing cloud. What about one person below and above ten thousand? Perhaps in the blink of an eye, he will be reduced to a prisoner, oppressed and despised by others. ”

"So?"

"So only stupid people will take one step at a time and calculate one step at a time. Rather than being pushed along, it is better to swim against the current, if one day, the world will turn its back on me, then why should I take it? ”

There was an unstoppable arrogance between his eyebrows and eyes, and Song Ran was shocked when he heard this.

He suddenly changed the subject and asked her, "What do you think of the prince?" ”

She thought for a moment and said, "Long Zhang Fengzi." ”

Four simple words are enough to express her appreciation and recognition of the crown prince.

He forcibly suppressed his displeasure at her evaluation, and said, "But there are people who don't want him to sit on the dragon chair." ”

"Among the people who don't want him to sit on the dragon chair, are you also included? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to have been very wary of you from the beginning, and if he succeeds in ascending the throne, he will inevitably embarrass you in the future. She couldn't help but groan, and there was a deep puzzle between her eyebrows, "The Holy Lord has appointed the eldest prince as the crown prince, I still can't figure it out, isn't he afraid that the crown prince will embarrass the two princes when he ascends the throne in the future?" After all, the two princes are his sons by blood. Could it be ......," she paused, surprised by a guess, "Is it true that the edict of the prince has been manipulated?" ”

He glanced at her and said, "The Holy Inheritance to the Great Prince can be regarded as the return of things to their original owners." ”

Song Ran couldn't help but widen his eyes: "You mean, the Holy Lord wants to return the throne taken from Emperor Yongrui to Emperor Yongrui's eldest son?" This ......"

It's incredible!

Shen Hanxi didn't seem to be interested in a more in-depth explanation, and only said: "The emperor's heart, the needle under the sea, who knows what he is thinking." ”

Song Ran was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but ask him: "There is also the matter of Concubine Yi, what are your plans?" ”

seemed to be talking about his troubles, but he saw his eyebrows sinking slightly: "There was originally a chance to get her out, but I didn't calculate that she was pregnant." There aren't many things that can stump me, and that's one of them. ”

Whether it is Su Long or the child in her womb, they are all hot potatoes.

Song Ran vaguely saw that he was exhausted, his eyes showed an unbearable look, and he gently rubbed his eyebrows for him.

He looked at her and raised an eyebrow: "I almost forgot, the most difficult thing in this world has long been placed in front of my eyes." ”

Song Ran was puzzled and looked at him blankly.

A smile appeared on his face, adding to the flawless countenance, and he stretched out a hand and gently stroked her cheek: "There is a mortal who is not self-sufficient, and he wants to pick up the few microstars in the sky, do you say it is difficult?" ”

Song Ran's cheeks were slightly hot, he hurriedly lowered his eyes, and gently ordered: "My lord, close your eyes." ”

He looked at her for a moment, then obediently listened and closed his eyes.

She grabbed a strand of his long hair at the end of his hair, and with a very light movement, she knotted the long strand with the end of her own.

Shen Hanxi opened her eyes and saw the two strands of hair that were knotted together, a smile appeared in her eyes, and she commented: "Childish." ”

She was not depressed by his evaluation, and said, "My lord, blow out the lamp and sleep." ”

He lifted the lampshade and blew it out. As soon as Song Ran lay down, his body covered up, he propped up the bed with his hands, his body pressed against her, looked at her face from top to bottom, and said: "It's knotted, but it's husband and wife, and there seems to be some routine between husband and wife." ”

She saw that there was no lust in his eyes, so she bent her eyes and said, "I'm sleepy, don't make trouble, adults." ”

He pecked her lightly on the lips and lay down beside her. As the night deepened, the two fell asleep together, breathing like two strands of hair, intertwined together, slowly blending into the dark night......

In the same night, the crisis that had been dormant for many days could no longer be contained, and it was ready to move. There was a well-trained army, which quietly completed the deployment throughout the imperial city. In such a sensitive period, such a large-scale troop movement should have set off great waves, but the military department did not say a word, and the relevant officials who smelled the unusual smell also turned a blind eye and allowed the situation to continue to brew.

In the deep palace, the woman who had been asleep for many days finally opened her eyes in the dark. She counted the more leaks and sat up slowly. The slender and delicate hand was placed on her lower abdomen, and it took a long time for a tremor to spread from her shoulder.

The pain was extreme, but it was silent, without any sound.

In this way, she became a mother, but the father of the child in her womb is no longer alive.

He is such a calculating person, he has long expected that without him, she will not be able to live, so he gave her this child and wants to tie her to this world.

He cruelly deprived her of the desire to live, but gave her a reason to live.

How ...... Unreasonable.

Hearing her call, the palace maid who was guarding outside the bed hurriedly stepped forward, hung up the bed tent, and put on a robe for her, she was the favorite concubine of the Daxing Emperor, although her face was haggard at this time, she was still so beautiful that all the people standing beside her were eclipsed.

The palace maid handed over a night's medicinal soup and said, "Niangniang, use the medicine." ”

Suddenly a gust of wind blew into the temple, and the lights were dimmed, and the wind blew a little wickedly, and when I looked to the side, it turned out that the window had been blown open.

"Cold, go close the window."

When the palace maid heard this, she put down the decoction temporarily, walked over and closed the window, and when she returned to the bedside, Su Long had already drunk the decoction.

The little palace maid didn't notice that her fingers were already slightly spasming at this time.

"Niangniang, Imperial Doctor Chen said that you are weak, this fetal medicine should be drunk once an hour, you can lie down again, and when the time comes, the slave will come and call you."

Su Long opened his mouth to speak, but first squirted out a mouthful of blood.

The palace maid's exclamation sounded, and the originally quiet night was set off by this sudden change......

The residue of the bowl of medicinal soup was quickly sent to the Tai Hospital, and all the personnel who handled the bowl of medicinal soup were strictly controlled. The first to bear the brunt was the one who personally boiled this bowl of medicinal soup - Chen Gui, the resident envoy of the Tai Hospital.

When Su Long's pulse stopped beating, Chen Gui also confessed under severe interrogation that he was instructed to plot to kill the emperor's heir.
