44. Chapter 44 Trust me?

Sitting on Ying Zheng's spacious carriage, the air was filled with the faint scent of vegetation.

The two of us were silent. From the moment we held hands, there seemed to be a very subtle atmosphere permeating the relationship between us. I felt as if I had drunk a bottle of red wine and my head was dizzy.

I looked up at Ying Zheng, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and realized that his clothes were very similar to the robe I was wearing. The same style, the same black, the same fabric and cut, even the patterns embroidered on the cuffs and collar were the same.

of.

If this was placed in modern times, it would be called a couple's costume. I don't know if there was such a term in ancient times.

"You're in a daze again! Can I call you Xiaodai from now on?" Whenever he sees me wandering around in the past few days, he reminds me to come back to my senses. Now he wants to give me the nickname Xiaodai, which of course I refuse.

, glared at him.

He laughed, just like the hearty and hearty laugh he had when he was 13 years old. It swept away the haze caused by the military rebellion during this period. When I saw him laughing, I also laughed happily, and the atmosphere in the carriage suddenly became lively.

We laughed until our eyes were slightly moist, and then we gradually stopped smiling.

He looked at me seriously and said, "Qingchi, I'm not joking with you." I knew he had something serious to tell me.

"But do you still remember the poisonous arrow you took for me in this carriage eight years ago?" Ying Zheng looked over my shoulder, his eyes full of pity.

"Yeah, remember." Until now, I still have a faint scar on my shoulder.

"That's what Cheng Xi's mother Zheng did! I promised to give you an explanation for this matter, but I still haven't done anything yet. This time Cheng Xi Bing brought the blame on himself!"

Seeing the indignation on his face, I sighed in my heart. Born in an emperor's family, it is not easy to have family ties. Since ancient times, there have been parricide and brother murder in the fight for the throne.

The Northern Qi Dynasty from 550 to 577 AD had a reign of twenty-eight years. It experienced six emperors, and the fratricide was even worse. Four of the six sons of the Queen Mother Lou became emperors.

"Well, I know you're not happy about what happened to Cheng Xi! But it's all over, right?" The streets were full of Cheng Xi's crusade against him, preaching that Ying Zheng was not of the Qin King's blood, and that his end was a historical necessity.

"Well, everything has passed, and now you are back with me, do you believe me? One day, I will accomplish something, fulfill the unfinished wish of the sixth King of Qin, unify the six countries, and create the real Qin Empire!

"

"Well, I believe that since you were 13 years old, I have always believed that you will be able to achieve something great, be famous throughout history, and become an emperor throughout the ages." Looking at the ambitious Ying Zheng in front of me, I couldn't help but agree.

He, not to mention I know he will succeed.

Ying Zheng looked at me eagerly as if he had met a close friend.

At the moment, he is still a puppet king and does not hold real power in his hands. When he was 13 years old, he never dared to say such words so openly, but now he reveals his ambitions in front of me, which shows his trust in me.

I grinned, gave him a trusting look, stretched out my hand to touch the dragon-patterned bone hairpin in my sleeve, and wanted to give it to him, but now was the right opportunity.

At this moment, "Hey, hey..." the carriage braked suddenly. My hands were groping for the hairpins in my sleeves. Unable to stabilize my body, I threw myself forward and fell into a warm embrace.

"Qingchi, is it not painful from the fall?" Ying Zheng held me in his arms and did not let go.

I raised my head to meet his dark eyes, which were full of concern. His embrace was very warm. It was different from the simple fragrance of grass and trees when I was young, and was mixed with the smell of mature men's hormones. I lost myself for a moment.

"I'm fine." Supporting his strong chest, I wanted to leave the arms that confused me, but I don't know if it was my misunderstanding, but I felt a slight hold on his arm, but then let go.
