Chapter Seventy-One: Between a Foot
Zuo Chen's hand patted his back for a while, and the proficiency made Rui Yan slowly settle down, but Zuo Chen's unintentional murmuring made Rui Yan's heart completely cool.
He closed his eyes and whispered, "Yan'er ......."
Rui Yan raised his eyes and looked at him coldly, Yan'er, Yun'er, it's Lu Yun, no matter who it is, it won't be him.
It's all because of the dead woman, the woman he doesn't even know if he should call his sister.
"Let me go, it's really not like this, after all, I'm not your jealous little sister." Rui Yan, who was gently embraced by Zuo Chen, suddenly sneered at him, which made Zuo Chen freeze in place unprepared.
The pair finally stopped and succeeded, and pushed Zuo Chen violently, Zuo Chen hugged him tightly in his arms, so tight that people even breathed pain.
"Don't keep rejecting me, why don't you keep telling me, is it that if you weren't sick, you wouldn't have told me about the court at all. Prince Xiangrui is lawless in the royal city, making the people miserable, I know why you have been refusing to go back, but ....... Zuo Chen wrapped his arms around his slender shoulders, and his tone was as soft as possible, but it was inevitable that Rui Yan still heard some accusations.
Zuo Chen also had the same idea as Rui Yan yesterday, but when he saw one snail after another thick recital, he suddenly realized that if he continued, he would not only bury the foundation of the country, but also put the people in dire straits.
Finally, because of the new deal, it will recover a little, and it will become barren because of such destruction again and again, and the Khitans will only benefit in the end.
Rui Yan lowered his head because of his words, so that Zuo Chen couldn't see his hidden expression, and his white and white skin could be seen clearly because of his illness, along with his blood vessels, which always gave people the illusion of paleness and weakness.
Seeing that he had been refusing to make a sound, Zuo Chen didn't make a sound, just kept looking at him with those beautiful eyes, and every place on his body, even his fingers touched him gently, for fear that one would accidentally break him.
The long hair had a sour lemon fragrance, Rui Yan was hunched and didn't know what he was thinking, and from Zuo Chen's point of view, he could only see his slightly hooked chin, with fortitude and stubbornness.
Rui Yan, who had never made a sound, didn't notice Zuo Chen's eyes looking at him, but he had been intoxicated in his thoughts, his brilliant facial features, with an incomparable charm, I don't know what he thought of, the corners of his mouth pulled out a warm smile, and suddenly asked a sentence that was incompatible.
"I heard that when you were young, you traveled all over the world and walked a lot of mountains and rivers, right?"
"What?"
Zuo Chen, whose attention had not been here, was startled by the sudden words and did not react.
"I know you want me to go back, but you should know what I came out this time for, my father came back three years ago as if he had completely changed, and began to prepare for his own future, paving the way for me, and even what happened before was erased by my father."
"You can't understand that the self-blame that your father instantly turned white in less than five months is because of my willfulness, so I must find out a result of this matter."
Rui Yan didn't look up, the green silk hung down, the corners of his hair were gently raised by the wind, and there was an extremely indifferent smile on his pale face.
Sure enough, just as Rui Yan thought, Zuo Chen's face was silent because of his words, his eyes fell on Huang Yan, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so Rui Yan lowered his head in complete disappointment.
Sure enough, that person always only believed in the affairs of the country, and never took him to heart, even if that person was with him and became his person, he still had no heart.
Unconsciously straighten up and straighten your chest.
Zuo Chen was stunned at first because of the self-claim in his words, when he talked to him for a long time, he hadn't heard him call himself me, so long that he had almost forgotten his identity, and he was about to forget that the distance between him and him was actually very far, even if he found out that he was sad and sad in his words, he could do nothing but stand aside quietly and feel sorry for him.
He is a ruthless emperor, even if he has never held himself in such an capacity during this time, but he is still, this will not change no matter what, it is he who has crossed the distance.
"It's the minister who has crossed the distance."
Zuo Chen consciously took a step back, stood a foot away and lowered his head, and the temperature in the room also dropped to zero because of his alienated words. Rui Yan turned around and stood against the light, he was afraid that he would not be able to control the disappointment on his face, he was afraid that he could not help the indifference on his face, he was afraid of ...... Let Zuo Chen see what Duan Jiong is.
Rui Yan, who stood against the light, raised his head hard, so that his sour eyes looked at the sunset hanging in the air, even if it would make his eyes black for a while, he still stubbornly lowered his head, and the white coat was swaying alone in the wind, which was cold and distressing.
One foot is the distance between them, one is the emperor who sits on the throne, the other is the prime minister who leans towards the government and the opposition, one can only stand up straight and lonely, withstand all the wind and rain, and the other can only watch from the sidelines and cannot stretch out his hands to give him any help.
One foot is very short, so short that he can even smell the faint fragrance of grass on his body, and the distance of one foot is also very long, long enough to reach the end of the world, one can only be high, the other can only crawl low, so long that they can't keep each other warm and rely on each other.
Just like that dreamlike night, he can only exist in dreams, and even if he really exists, he can't exist.
"Heh, as long as you are willing to agree to one condition for me, it is not impossible for you to want me to go back, after all, my prime minister has the world in mind!" Rui Yan laughed at himself in a lonely tone, and his slender body trembled slightly because it was too tight.
"What?"
Zuo Chen raised his head suspiciously, and just wanted to walk to his side, but he realized the distance between them, a foot away, and had to smile helplessly, or ...... Still unable to cross the distance, he had to bow his head and say respectfully: "What Your Majesty said, the minister does not dare to object."
Hearing his words, Rui Yan mocked sarcastically: "I advise you to think about it, because my request is to let you stay by my side as a concubine for seven days, and you cannot refuse any of my requests during these seven days."
The thin body laughed low because of Zuo Chen's shock, and his hoarse voice was nice and simple.
"Okay, I promise you." Just when Rui Yan thought that Zuo Chen would not make a sound, Zuo Chen's elegant and cold voice sounded behind him.
Rui Yan turned around abruptly, and his beautiful eyes looked at it from beginning to end with a scrutinizing gaze, sharp and indifferent.
"I really didn't expect my prime minister to be such a responsible person, for the people of the world to be able to agree to this condition that they don't like people, it really makes me happy, I hope you don't regret it."
The last thing Rui Yan remembered for Zuo Chen was that satan-like smile, and he couldn't help but sigh softly before he fell.
It turns out that he is really in love with the person in front of him, otherwise why would he only be defenseless against him every time.
