The moonlight is like a knife, cutting the shadows of the dunes, making them longer and more lonely.
The blood moon hanging in the sky seemed like a blood-colored eyeball, silently watching the two people walking in the desert.
After walking with Helan Xiaoxiao for more than an hour, Li Nanke couldn't find any way out.
Everywhere you look, there is nothing but sand.
And Li Nanke never met the mysterious woman in black again.
This made the man very unhappy.
I can only blast this stinky bitch a hundred times in my mind, which is a spiritual way to vent my anger.
"I'm not looking anymore, I can't walk anymore."
Helan Xiaoxiao, who was a little tired, sat on the ground unladylikely, grabbed a handful of sand with residual heat and complained, "There is no way to get out of this place."
"Don't be lazy. Aren't you afraid of being trapped here forever?" Li Nanke frowned and said dissatisfied.
"Don't be afraid. If you're tired, you'll be tired. No one will die anyway."
The woman stretched out her two long white legs, like a cat stretching and coquettishly. Her movements were indescribably charming, and at the same time she was agile and lively like a girl.
Li Nanke had no choice but to sit next to the woman and said, "I'll take a rest too."
"Why don't you go back first and I'll rest here alone. After you rest, I'll find a way out on my own and I'll always find it."
Although the Empress Dowager has a temper with her younger daughter, she is very considerate.
I know that Li Nanke is very busy in the real world. If he accidentally oversleeps, he will be in trouble.
"It's okay. I'm under house arrest. I can sleep wherever I want."
Li Nanke put his hands behind his head, lying on the warm beach and looking at the bloody full moon, relaxing and comfortable.
"Ah, you are under house arrest!?"
Helan Xiaoxiao's beautiful eyes widened in surprise.
"yes."
"Have you been placed under house arrest by the Supreme Emperor? Are you unable to leave the palace for the rest of your life?"
The woman's eyes were full of pity and sympathy.
What the hell?
Li Nanke was startled, and then he remembered that the Empress Dowager beside him had been under house arrest for more than 20 years. He even had a stress reaction to the word "house arrest".
"It's okay, I'll just keep you under house arrest for three to five days."
Li Nanke explained.
"Oh, that's good." Helan Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief, also lying on the sand, and said quietly, "House arrest is very scary, you can only stay in a small courtyard, and you can't see anyone else except the servants around you.
No one plays with you, no one talks to you..."
The woman talked a lot, as if she was talking about the tragic experience she had experienced.
Li Nanke looked at the woman's beautiful profile, his heart moved, and he asked softly: "Xiaoxiao, I remember you are the princess of the Gulan Kingdom, do you want to go home and visit?"
"In no mood."
Helan Xiaoxiao shook her head and answered simply.
Li Nanke was puzzled, "Why not? You don't want to see your... uh, relatives and friends."
The man wanted to say his parents, but he remembered that the queen and king of the Gulan Kingdom were long gone.
Today, a young emperor is in charge of the Kingdom of Quran.
He should be Helan Xiaoxiao's nephew.
"I don't have any impression, why should I go?" Helan Xiaoxiao answered matter-of-factly.
Family love is indeed thicker than water.
But for a woman who was "sold" to a foreign land at the age of six, her hometown was a completely unfamiliar place.
Li Nanke smiled, reached out and stroked the woman's smooth hair, and asked: "If one day you can no longer stay in the Red Rain World, where will you choose to go?"
"Well, this is..."
Helan Xiaoxiao tapped the corners of her lips with her fingers, tilted her head and thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "I don't know, anyway, I will never return to the palace, not even to the death."
As she spoke, the woman waved her pink fist twice.
Such a romantic and innocent look made Li Nanke laugh and feel pity for him at the same time, and he was filled with a faint emotion in his heart.
If not for this accident, the Empress Dowager might have stayed in the palace for the rest of her life.
"If you can't stay in the red rain world anymore, just follow me."
Li Nanke said softly.
Helan Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously with a bright smile, "Okay, I like to stay with the little rabbit."
But then, the woman said sadly: "It's impossible. If someone discovers it, both you and Little Rabbit will be implicated. I can't harm you."
Women are not stupid, knowing that their special status will only bring trouble.
"It doesn't matter. My wife knows the art of disguise and will change her face for you when the time comes. She will say she is my wife in front of outsiders. No one will find out. I guarantee safety."
Li Nanke said.
Helan Xiaoxiao's apricot eyes suddenly lit up, but soon she stared at the man with a suspicious face and asked: "Why do you say she is your wife? I don't want to get married. You must be having bad ideas."
"It's just talk, it's not true."
Li Nanke started his usual deception, "And you also like me, so it's normal to be my wife."
As soon as these words came out, the woman's expression suddenly became astonished, "I like you?"
Li Nanke said: "Yes, you like Meng Xiaotu, right?"
"right."
"Then Meng Xiaotu likes me, right?"
"right."
"So after all calculation, it means you like me." Li Nanke's tone was very sure.
Helan Xiaoxiao was stunned.
Just when the man was smiling proudly, the woman raised her hand and scattered the sand in her hand, and the man immediately became disgraced.
"You think I'm a three-year-old? That's not the same thing at all."
Helan Xiaoxiao pursed her red lips and said angrily.
It seems that the innocent-looking Empress Dowager is not so easy to deceive after all.
Li Nanke was helpless, "I've seen your whole body and hugged me. According to this world, you are already my woman. Who else can you be if you are not my wife?"
Listening to what the man said, the woman was speechless.
"It seems... too."
Although women are not stupid, the rules and regulations of this world ultimately constrain traditional thinking.
Even a woman like Luo Qianqiu thinks that harmony between wives and concubines is what they should be.
As a royal aristocrat, the Queen Mother must have stricter rules than ordinary people. Naturally, she cannot break away from the shackles of tradition under the influence of her ears and eyes.
"And in this red rain world, only I can always accompany you. Even the little rabbit has to get my permission before he can come in."
Seeing that the woman was finally shaken by his deception, Li Nanke hugged the Empress Dowager's soft and slender waist at the right time and said with a smile, "What is this lifelong companionship if not a husband and wife?"
In the real world, Li Nanke would not take the initiative to seduce other women.
Because he feels guilty towards Luo Qianqiu.
You can even refuse the eldest princess's advances.
But in the world of Red Rain, it seems that all shackles and morals can be thrown away and you can become a "bad guy" as you please.
There are no restraints, no worries, no boundaries between good and evil.
Otherwise, he would not have insulted the mysterious woman in anger when he traveled to two years ago in Phoenix Mountain.
Red Rain is a world with ambiguous morals.
A patchwork of imaginary worlds.
As long as you enter here, your thoughts will be "polluted" and "transformed".
You can think of it as your own dream.
Do whatever you want. Here, you are the real master, without any restrictions.
Facing a super beauty like Helan Xiaoxiao, when Li Nanke has the idea of "possession", his true nature as a man will naturally be exposed.
It’s just a “dream” anyway, so what if you have a hundred wives?
But if the Empress Dowager was in the real world, Li Nanke wouldn't even have any thoughts.
"But……"
Helan Xiaoxiao opened her eyes and looked at the blood moon in the sky, her eyes as pure as glass filled with confusion.
Although she doesn't hate Li Nanke, the couple is still too far apart.
But what the other person said makes some sense.
If she stayed in the Hongyu world, wouldn't she be Li Nanke's exclusive wife?
"Being my wife has many benefits."
Li Nanke grabbed the woman's smooth little hand, clasped his fingers and said one after another,
"First, you can always live freely in the Red Rain world, and no one will put you under house arrest anymore.
Second, you can play with the little rabbit, and no one can separate you. I can also always accompany you.
Third, if you can give birth to a child here, you will be completely companionable..."
"Wait! Child?"
Helan Xiaoxiao was frightened, "Me and yours?"
"yes."
Li Nanke nodded, "Think about it, in the future you have a lovely daughter or son who can play with you anytime, anywhere, take adventures with you, talk with you...
You won't be alone, you won't be lonely, and you won't live a boring life here.
Do you like such a boring life?
Life should be colorful..."
Under the bright future that the man tried his best to describe, Helan Xiaoxiao looked in a daze, and he could not help but weave the pictures and scenes in his mind.
It seems... I'm really excited.
For a long time, Helan Xiaoxiao stared at the man's handsome and sunny face and said seriously: "Well, I want a child!"
"That's it."
Li Nanke smiled with a cracked mouth.
"Well, why?" the woman asked.
Li Nanke's expression froze, and he suddenly realized that this woman didn't know much about men and women.
I remember when we first met in Red Rain World, in order to verify whether her virginity was still there, this woman actually studied her belly button.
"This kind of thing is not difficult at all."
Li Nanke had no choice but to guide her step by step, "Usually it's the woman who takes the initiative, why don't you kiss me first."
But the woman didn't move.
Li Nanke thought the other person was shy, so he simply took the initiative, straightened up and kissed the other person on the lips.
The man at this moment was undoubtedly excited.
After all, the woman in his arms is no ordinary woman, but the Empress Dowager of the Dazhen Dynasty.
But the woman still didn't respond.
Like a puppet.
Li Nanke was confused, and then he realized that He Lan Xiaoxiao's eyes had been staring behind him.
