Chapter 74: Where Love Goes (1)

Since meeting Cui'er, Zhen Ke'er has ignited her passion for life again.

Zhen Keer has admired Xiao Wu who was the king of children since she was a child, and thinks she knows everything and can do anything, Zhen Keer believes that Xiao Wu must be good, and she should go to play crazy again, and she will come back after playing, just like when she went up the mountain alone when she was a child, and came back safe and sound after three days.

On the contrary, the eldest prince found out Cui'er's whereabouts from her mouth, so he hurriedly sent someone to the inn to find her, but Cui'er did not say goodbye and was nowhere to be found.

Did Cui'er and the eldest prince deliberately avoid it? Did they hear the wrong address? Or did Cui'er have something urgent?......

Zhen Keer, who already loves to think crankily, the more she thinks about it, the more her mind is full of mush, and she doesn't dare to ask Cheng Lie, thinking about it every day, and guessing and guessing in her heart.

What makes Zhen Keer happiest and worried the most is the news that the young master Xiaofeng may still be alive.

Zhen Ke'er knelt beside the bookcase, holding a clean towel in one hand and touching the jade pendant on her neck with the other, she was dazed and immersed in the memories of missing Xiaofeng, and she was already wet with tears and her clothes were unconscious.

This scene was seen by the eldest prince Cheng Lie, who had just stepped into the hall, and a trace of angry and complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, and he disappeared before he had time to catch it, Cheng Lie walked in with a gloomy face, pouting at Zhen Keer with cold eyes, and asked in a deep voice: "Say! Why are you crying?"

Zhen Ke'er looked up at Cheng Lie, stunned for a moment, and panicked and stuffed the jade pendant back into the collar.

Cheng Lie's eyes were sharp, and he still saw a piece of a man's jade pendant. For this jade pendant, Zhen Keer was framed by Xiangluo and others, and the hanging beam almost killed herself, but she saved her and arranged for her to be by her side.

It's really cute that people are busy kneeling down and saluting, and they reply weakly in a very nasal voice: "Slave...... Thinking about family members, can't control themselves...... Rushed into the eldest prince and begged for forgiveness".

Cheng Lie's eyes were cold, his brows were slightly frowned, and there was a chill in his voice, "Get up and change your clothes for Prince Ben."

Zhen Ke'er responded with "yes", hurriedly got up, secretly wiped her tears, and respectfully waited for Cheng Lie to change her clothes, secretly annoying that she was too careless, so that the master could see crying and crying, if the crime is not light.

Cheng Lie stretched out his arms, Ren Zhenke'er took off his robe, and sometimes looked coldly at the people in front of him who were silent, with ice muscles and jade bones, and there was a sense of depression and resentment in his heart. He wanted to find out what was going on with the man's jade pendant that was worn by Zhen Ke'er, and why was she crying alone?

For nearly two hundred years, Cheng Lie has become accustomed to Zhen Ke'er's proper and meticulous waiting, Zhen Ke'er is familiar with all his habits and preferences, and things are handled properly without reminding.

Cheng Lie has never been worried, Zhen Ke'er will have someone else in her heart, let alone worry that she will leave, she can only climb on his big tree like a vine in order to grow and survive.

After being busy every day, Cheng Lie knew that there must be a person in the palace who was as elegant as a chrysanthemum, and no matter how late it was, he would be waiting for him. Zhen Keer's cup of fragrant tea and silent companionship by his side are enough to comfort his tired and chaotic body and mind. Every day, Zhen Keer changed his clothes, washed and waited for tea, made a mattress for him every night, took care of his sleep, and kept a quiet vigil not far away, so that Cheng Lie could sleep peacefully in a beautiful atmosphere that was carefully cared for.

As long as Cheng Lie calls softly, Zhen Keer will immediately appear in front of him with a light smile, Cheng Lie's irritability is often swept away in this light smile, he likes her supple and well-behaved, gentle and indisputable temperament.

Zhen Ke'er has no old acquaintances with clansmen, family and friends, she should only have him as the master in her eyes, Cheng Lie takes it for granted that Zhen Ke'er is something that belongs to him, and she can get it at any time. She is not his woman, and if he wants her, he will immediately turn her into his own woman. Cheng Lie is very confident in his heart, and the woman in the palace is pampered, which is a blessing that is regarded as a great blessing.

Cheng Lie was confident that Zhen Ke'er would not leave this matter, and with the appearance of Cui'er and the jade pendant of the brain man, he began to waver. He faintly felt that there might not be himself in Zhen Ke'er's heart, she was good to him, but the maid was responsible and concerned about the master, and Cheng Lie began to look forward to it in his heart, Zhen Keer could take the initiative to help and charm him.

I don't know if it's emotional, is it used to warm companionship, or is it possessive?

Recently, somehow the dullness of the really lovely person makes Cheng Lie often feel inexplicably troubled, the last time she mistook her for a private meeting with a man, it was like this, and today it is like this for the jade pendant hanging on her chest.

After the loss of his beloved brother and his mother, his father was in pain and could not extricate himself, Cheng Lie took on all the burdens, facing the ministers of the court and the opposition every day, dealing with the intricate court affairs, he was physically and mentally exhausted but no one understood and relieved, only in the Wude Palace, which was treated sincerely and intimately, Cheng Lie felt a moment of peace and warmth.

Cheng Lie suddenly became troubled by gains and losses, and began to worry that he would lose Zhen Ke'er, if there was no her, he would be a calculating woman by his side, just like his two side concubines, all day long full of organs twisting and turning, talking and doing things with meaning, if you are not careful, you will fall into large and small conspiracies, that really makes Cheng Lie very annoying.

Wude Hall is the last peaceful and warm harbor that Zhen Keer uses delicacy and warmth to create and protect for him, is it because of this tranquility that he likes people who are as light as chrysanthemums? Or do they like this person who is as elegant as chrysanthemums and fall in love with this tranquility? When Cheng Lie found out that he might lose Zhen Ke'er, he thought about it seriously, and only then did he really realize that Zhen Ke'er was important and precious to him.

Cheng Lie stood in front of the window and walked independently, and in contemplation, he slowly sorted out his mind, and confirmed that in two hundred years of dependence, he unknowingly fell in love with Zhen Keer.

In the most difficult time, Zhen Keer guarded herself with her purest and selfless love, warmth, and now that her father has figured out that she has returned to the court, the burden on her body is not as heavy as before, Cheng Lie feels that it is time to care about his own happiness, and he must not let this indispensable happiness stay away from him.

Zhen Keer was still uneasy about the eldest prince Cheng Lie's sudden return to the palace and seeing her gaffe, she knew that the eldest prince did not pursue her, because she was grateful for her careful service over the years.

Zhen Ke'er is not a proud girl, she has never used the rights and favors given by the eldest prince as capital, and has done anything to cross the thunder pond by half a step. She is simple-hearted and loyal to her duties, and the more she takes care of her, the stricter she is with herself, and she takes care of the eldest prince herself, respectful and meticulous.

A burst of familiar tea fragrance wafted in, Cheng Lie didn't need to look at it, he also knew that it was really Ke'er coming, "Big Prince, please use tea."

For the first time, Cheng Lie felt that this light voice was as graceful as the cry of a yellow bird, and he looked up at Zhen Ke'er, who was as elegant as a daisy, with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and there was affection in his eyes slowly.

Cheng Lie drank tea while looking at the table, it was really lovely to sort out the case, the two were like an old couple, silently busy with each other, but they felt each other's warm company.

"It's really Ke'er, go out with Prince Ben"

Zhen Ke'er was slightly startled, saluted slightly and responded with "Yes!", followed Cheng Lie, and walked out of the Wude Hall together.

Cheng Lie retired to guard Long Teng and Yin Suo, and only took Zhen Keren to pass through the garden of Dajing Palace, Cheng Lie's mood seemed to be very good, and he chatted with Zhen Keer while walking, "You, how many years have you been in Da Jingyang Palace?"

Zhen Keer felt that Cheng Lie was very different from the past today, since she entered the palace, she had never seen the eldest prince go to the garden, let alone see him chatting with others. Zhen Keer had a faint uneasiness in her heart, and replied weakly, "Back to the words of the eldest prince, slave, it has been one hundred and seventy years since I came to Da Jingyang Palace."

"For so long?"

"Yes!"

Next was a wordless all the way, and unconsciously, Zhen Keer followed Cheng Lie to the Zhaode Hall where the second prince Mu Bai lived before.

When the guards at the gate saw the arrival of the eldest prince, they hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

Cheng Lie raised his hand to signal the guards to get up, and entered the hall with Zhen Ke'er. He ordered people to clean the Zhaoyang Hall regularly and sent guards to protect everything here, so the Zhaode Hall maintained the same original appearance as it did more than 3,000 years ago.

In the Zhaode Palace, time does not seem to have left any traces, the only difference is that there is no owner here, that Cheng Lie's favorite, the younger brother Mu Bai who is like a jade chisel and pink carving.

Cheng Lie's eyes were filled with pain and sorrow, silently walking, touching, and reminiscing, and the scenes of the past lingered in his mind:

"Brother, I'm here, come and get me, hahaha"

"Brother, you sleep with me, it's cold in the quilt"

"Brother, my leg hurts, you carry me"

"Brother, I want to be as strong as my brother when I grow up"

"Brother, is Mu Bai dying?"

"Brother, help me take care of Xiao Wu......"

Cheng Lie was immersed in sad memories, there was a figure of his beloved brother Mu Bai everywhere, thinking that he was now lying alone in the ice coffin, Cheng Lie's heart was like a knife, and the tears on his face were shining brightly under the dark light and shadow.

A white handkerchief was silently handed over, Cheng Lie glanced at Zhen Ke'er with a concerned face, and felt a little embarrassed, but he still took the handkerchief and wiped his tears.

Before Cheng Lie could speak, he heard Zhen Ke'er's soft words float over, "Listening to the people of the old palace, it was the second prince who was brought up by the eldest prince himself...... He also said that after that day, he never saw the eldest prince laugh...... So affectionate and loving, slave ...... I can understand the pain of losing a loved one!".

What a reasonable and confidant woman!

Cheng Lie's heart fluctuated, and he suddenly felt as if his heart was not as uncomfortable as just now, he glanced at the shallow Zhen Ke'er meaningfully, and asked in a low voice: "Before bringing you here, ...... Have you ever been to Dajingyang Palace?"

"Been here"

"Huh?"

It was a casual question that had nothing to say, but Zhen Keer's answer still made Cheng Lie stunned.

Zhen Ke'er looked at the tall and sturdy Cheng Lie in front of him, with a puzzled expression on his face, and continued: "More than 10,000 years ago, the lord of the country brought Xiao Wu and I to Da Jingyang Palace to participate in a banquet...... Soon after that day, the little lord left home and went to the palace to be an accompaniment."

"That, playing with Lu Xiaowu in the woods, I almost ran into a young man in a car...... Is that you?"

"Hmm!", Zhen Ke'er remembered that scene clearly, and nodded a little shyly.

Cheng Lie looked at it carefully, and remembered the shy girl who was standing next to her, completely different from the radiant Lu Xiaowu, and suddenly laughed, "Ah......! and shyness".

Cheng Lie paced to the side of the painting, opened a painting, turned his head and glanced at Zhen Ke'er, his eyes were as soft as water, "I still remember that I was in the Holy Maiden Hall and arranged for you to accompany Xiao Wu."

"Yes! The eldest prince remembers this."

Cheng Lie raised his head, looked at Zhen Ke'er in front of him in a daze, and said softly: "Remember, you...... It's a very special girl, it's hard to ...... to make people forget".

Hearing this, Zhen Ke'er raised her head to meet Shang Cheng's burning gaze, and was a little flustered.

When Cheng Lie saw it, he smiled bitterly and sighed secretly. He saw that what he opened in his hand was the painting "Peony flowers are dead, and ghosts are also romantic", and a complicated look suddenly surged to his face, and he said after a long time: "I know, Lu Xiaowu and you grew up together...... When she's at home, is she also mischievous?".

Cheng Lie's question really subverted Zhen Keer's three views, what's wrong with the eldest prince today? Stunned for a moment, Zhen Keer still answered truthfully: "Xiao Wu Xiao Master, is the head of our group of children, as long as she is there, no one dares to bully us."

"You mean to say that she ...... It's yours...... Dominated?"

"Ah?!......h

Looking at Zhen Ke'er's stupid appearance, Cheng Lie felt that her stupid appearance was very cute, and her mood was much better, "Hmph......! It's not going to be any less naughty."

Cheng Lie thought that since Lu Xiaowu came to Da Jingyang Palace, his status in Mu Bai's heart had dropped a lot, and he had once pestered his younger brother, but suddenly his eyes were full of that naughty bag, and he pampered her without a proper appearance.

Think about that Lu Xiaowu, chubby, really smart and cute, and I don't think anything else?Cheng Lie even thinks that she is not as good-looking as the well-behaved and delicate Zhen Keer in front of her, why did Mu Bai make her baby like an eyeball?

As the saying goes, radish and cabbage have their own love. What kind of people do you love, and who do you love? In the dark, there is destiny.

More than 3,000 years have passed, Cheng Lie is still eating Xiao Wu's dry vinegar, he laughed at himself, looked at the painting again, and asked in a low voice: "What do you think, Lu Xiaowu is ...... her."

Zhen Ke'er hurriedly grabbed the words, "She's fine! must have gone somewhere to play again? Or lost? Xiao Wu will definitely come back, she was a child...... It's been like this several times", knowing from Cui'er that Xiao Wu was lost, Zhen Ke'er never thought that Xiao Wu would die, she was sure that Xiao Wu would be fine.

Hearing that Zhen Ke'er was so determined, Cheng Lie was a lot relieved, with a bit of strangeness on his face, "Oh, what the hell happened?

It was really cute and resolute, and said resolutely: "Xiao Wu, ah, no! It's the little master, she chased a beautiful monkey when she was a child, and she didn't come back until three days and two nights...... Although her robe was badly scraped and her body was wounded, she ...... I still caught the monkey back, she is very good at martial arts, and she can do anything."

Seeing that Zhen Ke'er's face was full of admiration, Cheng Liewu sneered to himself, and sure enough, the little girl had been naughty since she was a child, and he asked with great interest: "What about later?"

Zhen Keer asked back confusedly: "What...... Later?".

Cheng Lie quipped: "Oh, that's it, his father and queen mother...... What to do with her?".

Zhen Ke'er felt that the eldest prince Cheng Lie was very strange, how could he care about this issue? She hesitated a little and said, "Later, later...... Xiao Wu was beaten by the queen."

"Hahaha, hmph! I knew it would be this result, hahaha"

Cheng Lie laughed out loud, thinking about it, what kind of anger would that naughty little girl make her parents angry?
