Chu Jiaoli turned her back to him, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on her beautiful face. She breathed in the refreshing breath of the vast grassland, and her depressed mood today relaxed a lot.
Beigong Tengxiao twisted a strand of her hair around his fingertips, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Look at how restless you are, what's bothering you?"
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli bit her lip gently and said, "Are you...going to go hunting in the autumn?"
"It's just a few days." Beigong Tengxiao put his arm around her waist from behind, leaned close to her ear, and said hoarsely, "What? You can't bear to leave me?"
Chu Jiaoli was suddenly startled, lowered her head, and whispered: "What are you reluctant to part with?"
Beigong Tengxiao narrowed his eyes slightly. If he hugged her in the past, she would definitely resist. There is something wrong with this reaction...
His voice was a little softer and he said: "Li'er, do you... want to go hunting in autumn?"
Chu Jiaoli's body froze slightly, she bit her lip and said, "What...what should I do?"
"Today, my father summoned Chu Jiaoxing to the palace and mentioned this matter. Chu Jiaoxing agreed. I was also present at the time. He asked me to come and ask what you meant, but I refused on your behalf." "Well..." Chu Jiaoli's eyes looked a little lonely and her voice was soft.
Beigong Tengxiao raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Don't you have anything to ask me?"
Chu Jiaoli shook her head and said: "I don't know how to ride a horse and shoot arrows. If I go, it will cause trouble. It doesn't matter if His Highness refuses."
"I will refuse because Marquis Xiang and Duke Bai will also go. Chu Jiaoxing is very skilled in martial arts, so she is not afraid of being plotted. Since ancient times, there has been no example of a woman going hunting in autumn. Chu Jiaoxing wants to set this precedent.
She is very courageous, and I don’t want you to make any comments or fall into any danger.”
Chu Jiaoli was slightly stunned. At that time, he had not said that Xiang Qanting would go, so when he scolded Xiang Yini in front of her, was it just to show off to Xiang Yini?
But why didn't he have any explanation at that time?
After thinking about it, she said with some confusion: "Your Highness...why do you want to explain to me?"
Beigong Tengxiao raised the corners of his lips, closed his eyes, sniffed the comforting body fragrance from her white neck, and said: "Because you are smart, gentle, considerate, and have a deep heart. What I said,
You can all hear it."
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli's eyes suddenly turned red. Thinking of her behavior in this life, she suddenly realized.
Although she was so pampered in the previous life and received infinite favor from him, he always maintained an attitude of being unable to rest assured and trust her. She should be the softest person in his heart and the most worthy of his reliance. After all, he had
How many worries are faced with her all day long, but the pain is unspeakable?
Her heart ached. This man was so good to her that she would never be able to repay him in the next life...
Tears overflowed from her eyes and slowly ran across her cheeks, which were as clear as crystal under the sunlight.
Beigong Tengxiao raised his hand and gently touched her cheek. He felt a moist heat on his fingertips. He frowned and turned her body around, and saw her with a few tears hanging on her face.
He suddenly panicked, and gently wiped away her tears with his fingertips, saying: "Are you...are you angry? Is it because your sister has gone and you haven't gone, and you feel uncomfortable? But how does Chu Jiaoxing decide?
I don’t care. You can hit me and scold me if you want. Don’t cry like this. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t make decisions for you. Can you listen to my explanation? I’m just... afraid
You become the target of public criticism, fearing that the courtiers will be dissatisfied with your status and ruin your reputation, so all the hard work you have done..."
Before he finished speaking, Chu Jiaoli stood on tiptoes, wrapped her arms around his neck, and covered his lips.
Beigong Tengxiao was slightly stunned, was he dreaming? This was the first time she took the initiative to kiss him after she regained her freedom. Does this mean...she finally has him in her heart?
He slowly and tenderly frowned, closed his eyes, raised his hand and gently stroked her smooth black hair, and gently embraced her into his arms.
After the kiss ended, Chu Jiaoli spoke softly, looking into his dark eyes with bright beautiful eyes, and said: "Your Highness has helped Jiaoli, and if you continue to apologize, Jiaoli will only feel more guilty."
There was a trace of ambiguity in Beigong Tengxiao's eyes, and he said hoarsely: "If you can kiss me a few more times, I can apologize unlimited times."
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli's face suddenly turned red, she slowly lowered her head, bit her lip gently, and turned around to leave.
Beigong Tengxiao took her arm. In a moment of astonishment, he raised his hand to cup the back of her head and kissed her lips.
Chu Jiaoli frowned slightly, and put her slender hand against his heart. She could feel the strong beating of the heart in her cool palm. In an instant, her mind went blank.
Bei Gong Tengxiao leaned his forehead gently against hers, raised his hand to pinch her fair face, his eyes were as faint as autumn water, and his voice was hoarse: "You are not allowed to hide. If you tease me, you will have to bear the consequences."
."
Chu Jiaoli's eyes were blurred and she was a little dizzy. She said softly: "Then... I can only kiss you."
Beigong Tengxiao gently raised the corners of his lips and whispered: "You have a beautiful thought..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he picked her up and walked towards the carriage. He glanced at Jingyue who was leaning against the carriage picking up weeds and said coldly: "Get away."
"Yes." Jingyue understood immediately, coughed lightly and walked away knowingly.
The dry autumn wind blows across the grassland, and the waves are like ripples spreading on the lake.
……
In the Imperial College, after handling official matters, Xiang Yini slowly stepped onto the gorgeous carriage with her skirt in hand.
A carriage traveling in the opposite direction slowly paused beside the carriage that was not leaving. The person in the carriage used her slender fingers to slightly lift the curtain, revealing her beautiful chin. She said casually: "Princess, please
Don't worry, after some time, the stumbling blocks will be removed, and the road you are going to will be smooth as you walk."
Xiang Yini frowned her long eyebrows slightly, raised her glass and took a sip of the fragrant scented tea, and said, "Why did Mrs. Bai help me?"
"Although we are taking different paths, the stumbling block lies at the intersection, and Yue Ying really feels uncomfortable. It would be better to do nothing else. In this way, you and I will be clean."
Xiang Yini faintly raised the corners of her lips and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Bai."
As soon as she finished speaking, her carriage drove towards the Marquis Mansion.
Bai Yueying put her hands down, and the curtain dropped, covering the beautiful fair face in the carriage. She snorted coldly, her eyes indifferent.
Xiang Yini's eyes narrowed slightly, her voice was slightly calm, and she said: "From now on, you can discuss such matters with Bai Nufu privately. I don't want to participate."
Xiang Yinli was stunned for a moment, frowned slightly, and said, "Sister, are you being soft-hearted? People like Chu Jiaoli are not worthy of your being soft-hearted."
