Chu Li looked at her calmly, his eyes were unwavering, and he couldn't see a trace of emotional ups and downs. It was a long, long time before he lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

Wei Nong seemed to hear a faint sigh from him, but she was not sure, she called out in confusion: "His Royal Highness the Prince? ”

As she spoke, a light breeze swept through Chu Li's jade crown, brushing off a strand of his hair and covering his lacquer-like starry eyes. There seemed to be some story hidden in Moyu's pupils, but he couldn't see through it, and he didn't have the heart to explore it.

"If you really want to go, I'm not reluctant." He said with a straight face, and at the same time, his eyes fell on her face again, like a reminder, like a warning: "If you dare to abandon your family and country, and give up all this, you can leave." However, with your current three-legged cat skills, do you really dare to travel to Kyushu alone? Can you evade the soldiers of the Yan Kingdom? ”

Hearing this, Wei Nong opened her mouth, and was about to ask for a question, but Chu Li had already blocked her thoughts: "I will not do anything that violates diplomatic relations for you, don't think that I will help you avoid tracking." ”

He turned his head to look not far away, where the two frightened mounts were munching on the dead grass with their heads down, raising their hooves and flicking their tails. He looked at them with a cold expression: "Even horses don't eat back grass, let alone people...... Once you leave the Chu Palace, you will have nothing to do with me, forever. ”

"You're threatening me?" Wei Nong was a little unconvinced.

Chu Li gradually hooked his lips, as if smiling: "This is not a threat, but a fact." ”

Wei Nong looked at him in a daze, not knowing how to answer. At this moment, Chu Li seems to have regained his calm and gentleness, there is determination and detachment in his expression, he seems to have seen through her, but he seems to be unwilling to pierce it.

"Next, the princess, you make a choice." Chu Li looked at her again, with a little warmth in her eyes, and a trace of alienation, full of pride and dignity, but mixed with a hint of uncertainty.

"Elect...... What to choose? Weinong's mind was empty, and he was instantly at a loss.

"The choice is to go or to stay. Is it to continue to be 'preached' by me and do your best to be a princess of Chu who meets her identity? Or is it far away, using your three-legged cat's kung fu to travel in Kyushu? Chu Li's voice seemed to have a kind of magic, as if he had spied on her full fate, but he didn't say her ending, he handed over the final choice to her.

Wei Nong was afraid of being bewitched by his gaze and voice, so he couldn't help but close his eyes and cover his ears. She hesitated, struggled, sighed about the past, and hoped for the future.

Yan Guo can't go back, if she leaves Chu State again, she will float too far! Even if she wants to be a paper kite, she hopes that someone will hold the thread, and she will eventually return to it if she looks at it from a suitable height.

She didn't dare to imagine that once the paper kite broke its thread...... How will it be? It is undeniable that she doesn't like the court, but her identity is here, where else can she go if she leaves the court?

No! Why did she give up everything and wander away for the sake of Nie Xingji, that rotten person? Why did she give up the person in front of her for the sake of the eyes and beads in front of her?

She deserves to live better! With someone like Chu Li by his side, even if there is no love for each other, he will teach her and love her, and she will respect him and obey him. They will respect each other and make a difference!

Even a few years later, at the meeting between Yan and Chu, she would calmly and confidently walk up to Nie Xingji as the queen of a country, and smile fiercely, she wanted to tell him: Without you, I would live better! My children and grandchildren are on their knees! My mother is the world! I'm going to live forever! I will have a place in the history books and classics of Yan and Chu! I envy posterity!

Thinking of this, Wei Nong suddenly opened his eyes and stood up from the grass. She looked at Chu Li, took a deep breath, and the words she wanted to say suddenly turned into a smile of shame. The more anxious he was, the more he couldn't speak, and the more he couldn't speak in the face of Chu Li's clear eyes.

Chu Li obviously understood what she meant, and obviously smiled lightly, but he didn't open his mouth to relieve her. She didn't say anything, he just waited, like waiting to see her jokes.

Slightly ashamed, he lowered his eyes, and after a moment, he held back a weak sentence: "Preaching is preaching, don't be too harsh......"

Chu Li also stood up, patted the withered grass on his robe, and frowned: "But I will be very strict." ”

Slightly annoyed, he grabbed his hair and replied in a softer voice: "You are strict, I am lazy and lazy......"

Chu Li seemed to hear it, but it didn't seem to hear it, so he only raised his eyes to look at the bright sun, and asked, "Has the rain passed and the sky is clear?" ”

Wei Nong rubbed his eyes again, and then remembered that he was still holding Chu Li's sweat towel in his hand. Not surprisingly, this sweat towel had been ravaged by her to the point that she was miserable, and she was embarrassed to return it to Chu Li, so she put her hands behind her back and apologized again: "I lost my temper for no reason today, and I hope Your Highness will forgive me." ”

Chu Li said "um": "Did I arouse your sadness?" I don't know why, but next time I'll ......."

"There won't be a next time!" Wei Nong hurriedly made a promise.

Chu Li glanced at her and said jokingly: "Next time I have to bring a few handkerchiefs with me, it's scary for you to cry." ”

Wei Nong continued to torture the sweat towel behind his back, and was thinking about how to justify it, when he heard Chu Li say again: "Also, I can't let you ride a horse in the future." ”

"Huh?" Wei Min almost wailed.

Chu Li didn't care about it, walked straight to the two horses, and beckoned to Wei Nong: "It seems that there is no need to hunt, let's go!" ”

Wei Nong hurriedly trotted over and took his mount from Chu Li's hand, and the two did not ride again, walking slowly side by side to the depths of the dense forest. During this period, no one spoke again, but the strange thing was that Wei Nong actually felt very comfortable, and was not as helpless and uneasy as before.

It turned out that it was a good feeling to talk openly and honestly, and Fang Cai's tears were not in vain. Thinking of Fang Cai Chuli's "bitter heart" persuasion, he bit his lip slightly, but still asked: "Why is Your Highness so good to me?" Just because I'm a princess? ”

Chu Li pondered for a moment before saying, "Yes." ”

"Would you do the same to any woman?" Wei Nong asked.

"Other women shouldn't be so uneasy." He shifted a thousand pounds in four or two.

Wei Nong pursed his lips: "Fortunately, I asked more, otherwise I would definitely be cranky." ”

Chu Li didn't answer this sentence immediately, as if he was considering the wording, and said after a while: "I'm not a person who goes against the grain, but I will never resist the responsibility I should bear." Since you are destined to be my wife, and you happen to be a blank slate, I want to personally transform you into what I imagined, is there anything wrong? ”

"But it sounds like a pretty domineering one." Wei Nong unconsciously expressed dissatisfaction.

Hearing this, Chu Li's footsteps paused: "Then is it too late to ask for your opinion now?" ”

Wei Nong raised his eyebrows and did not say anything.

"I think the same as you, I want you to get better and better. As long as we can keep this in mind, we will not be divided. Chu Li's words were calm, half determined, half determined.

Wei Nong nodded unconsciously, and suddenly had an illusion that the person next to her was not her fiancé, but more like her teacher, her guide, and her friend who had reunited after a long absence. Perhaps, this is contrary to her original vision and vision, but it is undeniably a good feeling.

At least, Chu Li is no longer out of reach, nor is he on top of it.

Thinking about it, he laughed slightly, and Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Chu Li also laughing. Different from her snickering, he smiled so breezy and moony, which made people feel like a spring breeze.

"What are you laughing at, Your Highness?" She couldn't help but ask.

"What is the princess laughing at?"

"Is it true that Your Highness doesn't have a crush on someone?"

"No, I'm not good at dealing with girls."

"Lying, you're obviously very good at manipulating the girl's mind."

"If I knew how to handle it, you wouldn't be angry with me and cry."

……

They chatted with each other, completely forgetting the purpose of the hunt, until they walked with a sore leg and feet, and then they rode back to the camp side by side, empty-handed.

After the fierce horse chase, and sitting in the grass for a long time, Wei Nong and Chu Li were both embarrassed. But even if there was no smile on their faces, the people could feel the happy mood of the two, so they all tacitly ignored their clothes, and also ignored the slightly messy buns, except for Chu Yi, who looked clear to his heart, and smiled as if distressed and gratified.

Sitting on the chariot back to the palace, even Shui Yue retreated with each other. Chu Li tasted the high-grade Lu'an melon slices, and asked, "Of the four books, which one does the princess plan to start with?" ”

"Nangong Old Things." Slightly thick without thinking.

Chu Li groaned slightly: ""Midnight Wu Song" is an anthology of folk poetry, which is easy to understand, you can start with this one. ”

"I'm currently more interested in "Nangong Old Things"." A slight smile.

"Oh? Why? ”

"Didn't you say that "Old Things of Nangong" is an anecdote about the former court? He also said that this book is a must-read in the boudoir. I also want to see how those harem women behave in the world, how they get along with each other, and what is the beauty of their clothes and makeup, which can be passed down in the boudoir for hundreds of years. Obviously, Wei Nong was aroused by Chu Li's interest.

Chu Li seemed to be very satisfied with this result, and couldn't help but bowed his head and said, "It's okay, let's start with the book I am most interested in." If you have any questions, you can ask Mama Jiaoxi...... However, Yuntai Palace also welcomes the princess at any time. ”

"I'm not going to ask you for this book. Since it's a woman's boudoir reading, it's better to ask your grandmother. Wei Nong glanced at him playfully, and asked curiously: "You are even familiar with "Nangong Old Things", how can you not be close to women?" There are so many concubines and princesses in the book, isn't there one you like? ”
