This crisp and sweet voice like the stream suddenly sounded in Xena's ears, making Xena's heart tremble.

She raised her teary eyes and looked, only to see Leng Ming holding a handful of small wildflowers in her hand, looking at her with a smile, seeing her raise her head, he directly lifted the handful of small wildflowers in front of her eyes,

"I promise never to make you angry again, don't you ignore me?"

Leng Ming's words made Xina's tears slide down her cheeks silently, and she bit her lip and looked at him, not knowing what to do.

Seeing that she was crying, Leng Ming suddenly panicked and was at a loss,

"Xena, what's wrong with you? Did I mess with you again? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, don't cry, where did I provoke you, you scold me, or you hit me. ”

Seeing Leng Ming standing in front of him, blaming himself in a hurry, Xena suddenly hugged him, buried her head in his arms, and kept crying.

Xena's actions made Leng Ming stunned in place, except for the last time he went back to the city, he had never had such close contact between them, and this time she actually took the initiative to hug herself, which made Leng Ming's heart ecstatic.

He was a little embarrassed to put his hand on her head and kept comforting:

"Don't cry, I really didn't mean to mess with you, I want to see you happy every day."

She nestled in his arms, and her heart ached when she thought of what her sister had said to her, but she couldn't say anything.

At this time, Leng Ming suddenly took two steps back, held her head with both hands, half-squatted in front of her, looked at her with four eyes, and looked at her with a serious face.

"Xena, I don't want you to be my sister anymore......"

His words made Xena stunned for a moment, she looked at him with puzzled eyes, she suddenly realized what Leng Ming was going to say, she hurriedly shook her head vigorously, and stopped in a hoarse voice: "Leng Ming, don't continue." ”

"No, I want to say, I want to say to you, I don't want you to be my sister anymore, I want you to be my woman, my lady, and my princess."

"No, no......"

Xena shook her head vigorously in an uncontrollable mood, covered her ears with both hands, and closed her eyes tightly.

"No, we can't be together, Leng Ming, I'm sorry, we can't be together."

"Why not? Xena, I like you, I've been in love with you for a long time, and I feel like I can only feel happy when I'm with you, you know? I dream of you every night, and I want to come to you during the day, you are not married, I am not married, why can't we be together? ”

Leng Ming's sudden confession made Xina's tears slide down her cheeks like a flood that burst the embankment.

She bit her lip and looked at Leng Ming, and when she shook her head vigorously again, her heart seemed to be torn apart.

"Why?"

Leng Ming grabbed her shoulders with both hands, shook her while his eyes were red and asked loudly,

"Xena, tell me why, why can't you be with me? I'll go to my fourth sister-in-law now and let her fulfill us. ”

"Don't go ......"

Xena looked at him with painful eyes, "You and I have special identities, we can't be together at all, if we force ourselves together, it will only harm you, me and the people around us." ”

Her words made Leng Ming stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't wait to say to her hurriedly:

"Are you saying you're older than me? I don't care, to be honest, I have never treated you as my sister, I have always felt that you are a little woman who needs to be protected, or rather, are you worried that you are from the Chu State? It's okay, I can go and beg my father, I will force him to die, he will agree, I beg him not to pursue your identity, let him order a marriage for us. ”

Leng Ming said the two questions that Xina was worried about in one breath, although he didn't dare to guarantee that his father would agree to marry Xina, but he would fight for it desperately.

But at this time, Xina was very sober, and she knew that Leng Ming's emotional affairs would make this matter impossible to end in the end.

"Don't go, the emperor's ban on the people of Chu has not been lifted, if you go to him now, it will inevitably cause his disgust, and it will affect my sister and brother-in-law at that time, not to mention ...... I also don't feel like we're fit together. ”

Leng Ming stared at Xina with a pair of handsome eyes, and asked seriously word by word:

"Do you like me, then?"

He thought about it, if Xena liked him too, even if he tried his best, he would beg his father to fulfill it.

His question, Xena didn't know how to answer, she didn't dare to look at him, she was afraid that her eyes would betray her.

Just as she was about to turn her head away from his hot eyes, Leng Ming imprisoned her head with both hands, and asked word by word again:

"Xena, do you like me? If you like me too, I'm sure we can break through all odds together. ”

Xena really wanted to tell him that she liked him, loved him, liked it so much, but she couldn't do that.

According to Leng Ming's reckless temper, if she said it, he would definitely rush into the palace and mention the matter to the emperor, and by the time the emperor descended to the Yu Palace, it would be too late.

So, she closed her eyes against her will, and shook her head gently,

"I ...... I do not like you. ”

Her words made Leng Ming stunned, and when he reacted, he directly let go of his hands, stood up weakly, turned around slowly, and then slowly walked out of the pavilion and went straight to the gate of Yuwang's Mansion.

Looking at his lonely back, Xena's heart was indescribably sad, and tears also ran down her cheeks and slipped silently.

Inside the Temple of Nourishing the Heart

On the second day after the emperor stopped taking medicine, the emperor's face was twisted on the emperor's couch, his hands were clutching the bed rail, and he shouted with hatred but weakness in his mouth:

Liu Xi ...... Liu Xi...... What's going on? Fast...... Give me medicine. ”

Liu Xi stood beside him, holding the small pill sent by Luo Lan in his hand, looking at the emperor's uncomfortable appearance, his heart was twisted.

He sent the little pill again,

"The Emperor's ......"

"Get out of here!"

The emperor suddenly used force and knocked the small pill in his hand to the ground, and while wailing in pain, he said in a weak voice:

"Go...... Call Leng Xi and let him ...... Let him bring me the little pill from the past. ”

Liu Xi saw that the emperor had noticed the problem with this small pill, so he hurriedly lay on the ground, picked up the small pill, and comforted him softly,

"Your Majesty, this pill is no different from the previous one, it's because you've been addicted to medicine recently, so you don't feel like it's a big deal, you can take another pill, so you can sleep a little longer."

"I ...... I eat it once, and I can only ...... Can only sleep ...... Sleep for a quarter of an hour, you want me to ...... Eat to death...... Eat to death? ”

Liu Xi looked at the emperor's appearance that life was worse than death, knelt beside the emperor with tears, and choked as if he was about to cry.

"Your Majesty, don't say that, you are in good health and will be fine."

"Liu Xi, what if...... If I die, this throne ...... To whom should this throne be passed? ”

"Your Majesty, you won't die, you take the medicine first and sleep for a while!"

"I can't do it, Liu Xi, you give me a knife! Kill me! Ah......h

A word shouted, and the emperor began to tear his clothes hard, and then began to pull the bed rail hard, and began to keep hitting the bed rail with his head......

"Your Majesty, don't be like this, you are scaring the old slave!"

"Your Majesty, take the medicine, just bear with it."

"The Emperor's ......"
