Chapter 144: You, Waiting for Me?
Shang Ruyi's breathing subconsciously tightened.
She slowly raised her head, and saw the courtyard door in front of her, and slowly walked in a familiar, fluttering figure like the wind, with a trace of tiredness on her handsome face, but as soon as she saw her standing in the courtyard, the smile in her phoenix eyes came out.
"You, waiting for me?"
At this moment, Shang Ruyi's breath was suffocated.
The man who walked in and called himself "I" was today, but he was also the man who had not talked to her very happily these days, but it always made her thoughts shake-
Yang at will!
No, at this time, he can no longer be called Yang Arbitrary, this name is really just a "magic hand".
Yang is casual, it's today, Chu Yang!
At this moment, he was wearing a gorgeous robe, no longer the leisurely and fairy-like that every time they met in the past, but there was a compelling momentum rushing towards him, and even the cold fragrance that hit him was a little more aggressive.
Shang Ruyi's hands were cold, but he still immediately lifted the hem of his skirt and knelt down.
"Courtiers to see Your Majestyβ"
Before she could finish speaking, she heard footsteps coming quickly, and a hand immediately grabbed her arm and pulled her up.
"No courtesy."
Shang Ruyi's heart sank, but he didn't dare to raise his head, and only maintained a posture of bowing: "Your Majesty, this--it doesn't make sense." β
A cold voice came from overhead: "My words are reason." β
ββ¦β¦β
This time, she had nothing to say.
So, Shang Ruyi slowly stood up with the strength of that hand, but as soon as he stood still, he immediately took a step back and pulled his arm out of that hand without a trace.
Chu Yang's hand paused in the air.
Then, he slowly put it down quietly, and there was still a faint smile in his phoenix eyes, and said, "You, it doesn't seem to be too unexpected." β
Shang Ruyi let out a sullen "um".
"When did you find out who I am?"
"I don't know, it's just that I vaguely guessed."
"Why did you guess?"
ββ¦β¦β
Shang Ruyi glanced at him and didn't speak, but Chu Yang thought to himself and said with a faint smile: "Presumably, these two meetings after arriving in Northern Xinjiang made you start to doubt my identity." β
ββ¦β¦ Yes. β
Chu Yang chuckled: "It seems that I am too frizzy." β
As he spoke, he looked at Shang Ruyi again, and said with a flickering gaze: "However, I do want to see you and talk to you." It's interesting to listen to you. β
Shang Ruyi said softly: "I just hope that the foolish words of the courtiers do not offend Your Majesty." β
ββ¦β¦β
Chu Yang took another step forward, lowered his head to look into her eyes, and said in a voice that was neither high nor low, and only two people could hear: "Do you know, those words of yours, if someone else said them, would have been dragged out and their heads cut off." β
The night breeze blew, and Shang Ruyi's cold sweat dried out instantly.
She cleared her throat before she barely said clearly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, the grace of not killing." β
ββ¦β¦β
"Courtier, courtier, courtier, will be cautious in her words and deeds in the future, and will no more-"
"No,"
Chu Yang interrupted her with a chuckle and said, "I think it's better for you to be yourself, I want to see you be yourself, and I want to hear what you want to say." β
As he spoke, a little light flashed in the phoenix eyes raised high in the corners of his eyes.
"You'd better not lie in front of me."
ββ¦β¦β
"I already know what kind of person you are, and if you lie, I will see it."
ββ¦β¦β
"So, whether it is now or in the future, in front of me, you must be the same Shang Ruyi as before, understand?"
Under the gaze of his almost fiery gaze, Shang Ruyi's heart became a mess, and she was silent for a long time before she said in a hoarse voice: "Emperor Xie...... Fulfill. β
Hearing the word "fulfillment", an almost smug smile appeared on Chu Yang's face.
But that kind of pride is not the pride of others following his orders, but a kind of pride - watching himself pinch sand into mud and shape a doll he wants.
Shang Ruyi didn't dare to look at his smile, he only cared about the situation outside, so he cautiously said: "Your Majesty, the courtiers dare to ask, outside-"
Before she finished speaking, she heard Chu Yang say: "Your self-proclaimed, I heard it really harshly. β
"What?"
"I don't want to hear you call yourself a courtesy anymore."
I saw Chu Yang holding his arms and looking at her with a little sneer: "Since I allow you to tell the truth in front of me and be yourself, then you'd better call yourself Ruyi." I allow you to call yourself wishful. β
Shang Ruyi hesitated: "This, how dare the courtiers-"
Chu Yang's face immediately sank.
The emperor is the emperor, the anger of the true dragon emperor made the corpses of the world all over the field, and the blood flowed and drifted, even if he was not angry at this moment, but only showed a slightly angry face, Shang Ruyi immediately felt that the air around him was cold, and the entire quiet courtyard seemed to be shrouded in an invisible, murderous net.
She hurriedly said: "Ru-Ruyi, thank Your Majesty for your grace." β
Chu Yang's face once again showed a smug smile.
Shang Ruyi suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, she is also a focused person, but it seems that every time she gets along with this person, she will be unconsciously dragged by him, in the past, she just felt that this person was mysterious, but now she naturally understands that this is the real emperor's mental technique.
He will not allow himself to be led by others.
Shang Ruyi settled down, and spoke cautiously again: "Your Majesty, outside-"
"That's right,"
Chu Yang also interrupted her words again and said, "Today, the queen told me that you have something to say to me?" β
"Huh?"
"It's Guan Wang Shaohe's plan, you seem to have other ideas, I'm already here, let's talk about it."
ββ¦β¦β
Shang Ruyi was dumbfounded.
She couldn't have imagined that what she said to Empress Jiang, she would actually turn to tell the emperor - these words, if some generals said them, it would be understandable, but she was just a small young lady of the Guogong Mansion, and she actually ignored the beak war, didn't this push her to the forefront?
Shang Ruyi hurriedly said: "This, the minister-Ruyi doesn't dare." β
Chu Yang's eyes flickered and looked at her: "What did I just say?" β
Shang Ruyi hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Your Majesty just said that you want to be Ruyi, and you will be the previous Shang Ruyi." β
"So, what you said to the queen, I want to hear it as it is."
ββ¦β¦β
"Otherwise, you are a bully!"
These last two words made Shang Ruyi's blood cold all over his body.
And at this time, the words that Queen Jiang had said during the day suddenly sounded in her ears again-
"It's just that Your Majesty has never liked to listen to people, and even if you do, you can't listen to it...... So, the key is, who can make His Majesty listen to him. β
Could it be that she wants to use her own mouth to admonish the emperor?
