Watching the pearl disappear behind a moon gate, Li Longji and Wang Weicai walked in the other direction at the same time. Before taking two steps, Wang Wei stopped and said to Li Longji respectfully:
"Your Majesty, I'm going to Lizi's room in the front yard now. You-" Wang Wei hesitated, but his meaning was already obvious.
Li Longji's eyebrows raised slightly:
"What? Are you trying to drive me away?" Li Longji's words contained a hint of anger.
Wang Wei quickly bowed and said:
"Students don't dare. Your Majesty has misunderstood. If Your Majesty wants to stay a little longer, I will just accompany you."
The more respectful Wang Wei is, the more uncomfortable Li Longji feels all over his body. In fact, Li Longji's current mood has nothing to do with Wang Wei's attitude. He just feels uncomfortable when he sees Wang Wei, whether he is respectful or negligent. He always feels
, as long as Wang Wei still exists, he is challenging his dignity as a prince!
Therefore, Li Longji ignored Wang Wei at all, but snorted lightly, flicked his sleeves, and walked away! Even at this time, Li Longji was still alert in his heart, because Wang Wei
was present, so he did not go through the small door in the back garden, but left through the main door of Fang's house.
Because he didn't want any rumors to spread, saying that he, the King of Linzi, would go through the small door to enter the home of a young woman of unknown origin. Although, he wanted to go through the small door in front of Wang Wei to prove that he and Wang Wei
Mingzhu's relationship with the Fang family was so close that she used it to demonstrate to Wang Wei and attack Wang Wei, but in the end, the majesty and prohibitions of royal power still restrained him.
It wasn't until Li Longji left and sat down in Lizi's room that Wang Wei breathed a heartfelt breath.
——This King of Linzi puts too much pressure on people!
Wang Wei is not stupid, of course he can also see Li Longji's thoughts about Mingzhu. Moreover, as a talented man who became famous all over the world when he was young, he also has his own pride. But in this era, he has to
Li Longji showed respect and kindness in front of him. This is undoubtedly painful for a man. Now, Wang Wei can't wait to take the pearl and leave Chang'an far away, return to the countryside, and leave these powerful and wealthy people far away.
, living his ideal life freely - farming, studying, being self-sufficient, and no longer having to look at other people's faces or be bossed around by others.
Wang Wei decided that when Mingzhu came out from Wangyounu, he would go to Mingzhu and tell her that he didn't care at all whether she would go blind. Even if she was really blind, he would take care of her for the rest of her life.
Wang Wei believed that although Li Longji was a prince, he would not dare to make this promise to Mingzhu. Therefore, he must tell Mingzhu that although he is not as rich and powerful as the King of Linzi, his sincerity and true feelings will definitely be greater than those of Linzi.
The king is a hundred times stronger!
Wang Wei was full of affection and was waiting to express his love to Mingzhu, but now Mingzhu had no thoughts of romance at all. She hurried to Wangyounu's bedroom, and when she saw Wangyounu, Mingzhu was stunned.
There was not a trace of blood on the face of Wangyou Girl. Her eyes were closed tightly, and her dark eyebrows and eyelashes looked particularly shocking on her snow-white face. Her wrists were wrapped in thick
The white cloth, exposed arms and palms were all white and almost transparent. Mingzhu felt that the Wangyou girl in front of her no longer looked like a person, but like a white crystal sculpture. She looked so...
Thin and fragile, it will break into pieces with just the slightest touch.
Mingzhu stopped suddenly, almost not daring to breathe, for fear of disturbing the Forgetful Girl. Lizi was looking at the Forgetful Girl with all his concentration, but now he heard the movement behind him, turned around and saw Mingzhu
When it came, I couldn’t help but exclaimed:
"Mingzhu, why are you here? Are you feeling better?"
Mingzhu felt a little more at ease when she heard Lizi talking so loudly while Wangyounu was still sleeping. She walked to Lizi and whispered:
"I'm fine, but I'm worried about sister Wangyou, so I came to see her. How is sister?"
Lizi also turned his attention to Wangyounu:
"The bleeding has stopped, but grandma's body is too weak. I wonder when she will recover?"
Mingzhu walked to the bed, picked up a silk handkerchief, gently tried the sweat on Wangyounu's forehead, and asked:
"Is sister sweating all the time?"
Li Zi nodded:
"Yes. The fox hunting master said that this is because grandma's internal energy has been excessively depleted and her mind and body are damaged."
Thinking of the healthy and active Wangyou girl in the past, and looking at her current weakness, Mingzhu couldn't help but feel sad in her heart:
"It's all my fault, causing my sister to get hurt again and again."
"I can't blame you, you are all working hard for your respective missions." Liehu's voice suddenly sounded.
Lizi and Mingzhu looked back, and Liehu appeared at the door at some unknown time. Mingzhu looked at Wangyounu for a long time, and suddenly said:
"Brother Fox Hunting, I think I was wrong before."
"What's wrong?" Liehu asked puzzledly.
Mingzhu tried the sweat on Wangyounu again, and then said faintly:
"In the past, I just thought about how to solve the problem as peacefully as possible and hurt others as little as possible. But now I understand that there is no peaceful solution to what I want to do. In fact,
It is war, and it is a life-and-death war! I pity my enemies. I always feel that they are victims of the imperial power and cannot bear the pain to kill me, but my enemies will not pity me and my companions at all! Today is the Forgettable Girl
Sister, maybe it will be you tomorrow who will be attacked by them. Therefore, I can no longer be merciful in the future. I will fight quickly to achieve my goal as soon as possible and end this cruel war!"
"What do you mean by quick victory?" Liehu asked.
"Capture the thief first, capture the king first!" Mingzhu said without hesitation, "I want to get to Queen Wei as soon as possible, gain her trust, and seize the throne! I must hurry up, because as long as I delay for one more day, there will be another
Innocent people were killed!”
Liehu stared at Mingzhu and said nothing for a long time. Finally, Mingzhu lost her temper:
"What? Brother Fox Hunter, did I say something wrong?"
"No, what you said is not wrong at all," Liehu still looked at Mingzhu with his thoughtful eyes, "I think you have changed a lot all of a sudden."
Mingzhu smiled lightly:
"People always grow up after experiencing setbacks."
Hunter Fox nodded:
"Okay, then when are you going to return to the princess's mansion, tonight or tomorrow morning?"
Mingzhu turned her gaze to the night outside:
"I want to meet Li Longji first."
"Now?"
"Yes. I want to have a formal talk with him."
"What to talk about?"
"Talk about cooperation."
Liehu wanted to ask something else, but after thinking about it, he swallowed his words. It seemed that since he realized the changes in Mingzhu, he had consciously started to respect Mingzhu's opinion.
"Well, do you want me to send a message for you and ask Li Longji to come over?"
"That's the best thing. I'll ask Brother Foxhunter to call him and tell him I'll wait for him in the garden."
Li Longji had just returned to the house and told Li Chengqi everything that had happened today when the message from Liehu was delivered.
Li Longji was stunned:
"I just came back from the Fang family, and Mingzhu wants to see me. What will happen?"
Before Li Longji finished speaking, he saw his elder brother looking at him with a half-smile, and Li Longji's face couldn't help but blush.
Seeing that Li Longji had understood what he meant, Li Chengqi simply stopped covering up and asked very directly:
"Third brother, do you think that Fang Mingzhu suddenly encountered such a big setback? He just walked away from the hell gate and is in danger of losing his sight at any time. That's why he desperately wants to see you so that he can be with you.
Make a promise and find someone to rely on for the rest of your life?"
Li Longji was revealed by his elder brother. Although he was a little embarrassed, he didn't feel too embarrassed because he did think so in his heart, and he felt that he was indeed qualified to be so conceited. After all, he was a prince.
Power and wealth are beyond the reach of a poor scholar like Wang Wei. Mingzhu is now in trouble, so she naturally wants to find someone to rely on, and it is obvious that she is a very suitable candidate.
.
Li Chengqi looked at Li Longji and smiled:
"Third brother, you are talented in literature and military, scheming and courageous. You are good at everything. But one thing is that you are too conceited when it comes to women."
"Brother, I don't understand what you mean."
Li Chengqi further explained:
"Because you have never suffered in front of women, and women have always surrendered to you, so you will inevitably despise women. This is not a big problem, but when our Li Dynasty has gone through so much
After the accident, if you continue to despise women, you are destined to end up like our grandfather, father, and uncles, and ultimately end in failure!"
After listening to Li Chengqi's words, Li Longji couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart and said:
"Brother, I understand what you mean, but will there be a second Queen Zetian in this world?"
Li Chengqi shook his head slightly, his eyes deep:
"I don't know if there will be a second Empress Zetian, but the experience of Empress Zetian at least reminds us never to look down on women. Go ahead, I believe you can talk to Fang Mingzhu tonight
After that, we will know whether she can become the second Queen of Zetian!"
"Brother, what do you mean?"
"I think that she suddenly proposed to meet you tonight, either because she really wants to rely on you as you thought. Or, it's time for the final showdown!"
