It was very dark tonight, with no stars or moon in the sky, not even wind. The dark branches and flowers were almost still. Mingzhu was sitting alone in the small pavilion by the water, staring at the lake in trance.
The lake is very flat and quiet. The duckweeds floating on the lake seem to be asleep. There is no sound in the whole garden. On such a quiet summer night, it seems that the only thing that should be done is to be quiet with loved ones.
She snuggled close together, said a few words from her heart, and then fell asleep leisurely. But even if it is such a simple thing, Mingzhu cannot do it, because her relatives are now far away in another time and space, experiencing life and death.
The trials and tribulations of death.
After a while, Li Longji will be here. Mingzhu has also noticed that although Li Longji appears gentle and gentle, in fact, he is a very strong and domineering man. Ever since she met Li Longji, Mingzhu has been very interested in Li Longji.
It’s not surprising that Longi later became a prosperous generation. Such a man is indeed capable of creating a piece of history and a miracle.
And today, I have to discuss the overall situation of the world with such a man, to discuss how to seize the imperial power that has fallen into the hands of others! Even, I have to ask for some conditions from him as the price of cooperation between the two parties! He will
Promise yourself?
From modern times to the Tang Dynasty, Mingzhu has always been very conceited about her intelligence and brains, but now, for the first time in her life, she feels that her intelligence is not enough. Yes, after all, she is only twenty years old.
Although the girl was somewhat knowledgeable in modern times, could her knowledge and intelligence successfully intimidate Li Longji? Mingzhu felt that she had no confidence at all.
Mingzhu looked around, but there was no movement around her, but she was still very convinced that Hunting Fox and the others must be hiding nearby to protect him. Because of her carelessness, she mistakenly took the poison, which not only affected Wangyounu,
She also implicated the patron saint who was secretly protecting her. Liehu insisted on punishing him with family law. In the end, it was Mingzhu who begged so hard that Liehu agreed to let him go temporarily, but letting him go does not mean forgiveness, it just let him
If he makes a mistake again, he will be punished for both crimes.
Although Mingzhu didn't know the reason why these patron saints were so loyal to Fang's family, their loyalty really moved her deeply.
Mingzhu sighed in her heart:
'Fang Mingzhu, cheer up, you can do it! For the sake of mother, for sister Wangyou, and for these patron saints who risk life and death for a belief, you must succeed tonight!'
There was a sound of footsteps. In fact, Li Longji's steps were very light, but because the surroundings were so quiet, his footsteps sounded particularly clear. Li Longji walked into the garden from the small door, almost without thinking.
, and walked straight towards the small pavilion. Although Mingzhu did not tell him where to wait for him, the small pavilion had become a tacit place for them to go.
The garden in the dark night has a unique charm. Li Longji was wandering on the path and suddenly thought of a problem - he had been in and out of the Fang family's garden too frequently recently. But on weekdays, he rarely even entered the garden of his own palace. The garden.
It seemed that this kind of place was not born to belong to him, but to those men and women who had enough leisure and leisure to have fun. But at this time, he came to this small piece of land again and again because of this girl named Fang Mingzhu.
In the garden, does this also mean that they have unexpectedly become the kind of gentle and romantic young man and woman?
Li Longji saw from a distance a lantern hanging high in the small hall by the lake. The dim yellow halo shot out from the lantern, steadily illuminating the darkness. Because of the distance, Li Longji
Long Ji still couldn't see clearly what was going on in the pavilion, but when he saw the lantern, he felt vaguely angry and disappointed. Only then did he realize that deep down in his heart, he was looking forward to being able to reunite with him.
Mingzhu was alone in the darkness for a while. This did not mean that he wanted to do something in the darkness, but since the last time he had a deep talk with Mingzhu at midnight, he always felt that this boundless darkness could make the two of them
Their hearts are closer.
Although this garden is not large in area, it is very well designed. It is covered with flowers and trees, and the pavilions are scattered and scattered, blocking people's sight. Therefore, it was not until Li Longji came to the pavilion that he saw the pearl.
Mingzhu also turned around at this time and looked at Li Longji quietly. To be honest, the light of the lantern was not strong, and it could only allow people to vaguely see the other person's facial features and the depth of his clothes. But Li Longji
But he felt that even this was enough to destroy the tranquility he expected.
"Your Majesty." Mingzhu greeted Li Longji with an exceptionally calm attitude. Maybe people are like this. The more nervous they are, the more indifferent and calm they appear.
Mingzhu's calm attitude also stabilized Li Longji's mood very well. He stepped on the stone steps and walked to Mingzhu. He looked at her face seriously, and his eyes inevitably fell on her forehead again.
That thin cyan line:
"Mingzhu, are you feeling better?"
Mingzhu smiled faintly, and her smile was more invisible and traceless than the wisp of mist floating on the lake in the night:
"I'm fine now. As long as the poison is eliminated, it won't be a problem." Mingzhu also felt Li Longji's gaze. She subconsciously raised her hand to touch her forehead and asked:
"Is this obvious?"
"Yes." As soon as Li Longji's words came out, he felt a little abrupt again, but it was too late to change his words, so he had to say: "Don't worry, I just returned to the house and already issued an order for my men to visit.
A skilled and famous doctor will definitely be able to find a way to remove these remaining toxins from your body."
Although Li Longji said this, in fact, he was not as confident as he appeared on the surface, because he now knew the skills and methods of these patron saints very well. If he couldn't even understand them, then he really
It is difficult to find someone who can detoxify Mingzhu.
What puzzled Li Longji was that Mingzhu's attitude was so calm from beginning to end, as if she didn't take the thin cyan line on her forehead to heart at all. Li Longji couldn't help but ask:
"Are you afraid of it?"
Mingzhu was stunned for a moment before she realized what he was talking about. She couldn't help but smile calmly:
"Afraid, how could you not be afraid? Being blind in both eyes is probably a terrible disaster for anyone."
When Li Longji heard what Mingzhu said, he couldn't help but stepped forward, thinking about taking Mingzhu into his arms. But as soon as he moved, he realized that Mingzhu's expression at this time was very different from what he expected, because Mingzhu
Now she does not feel sorry for herself or feel sad. On the contrary, under her calm appearance, she seems to have gathered a powerful force.
That inexplicable power seemed to restrict Li Longji, making him dare not be rude, so Li Longji asked:
"Mingzhu, what did you want to say when you came to me today?"
Mingzhu was still looking at the lake, and after a while she said leisurely:
"I know that I will soon go blind. If Brother Fox Hunter and Sister Wangyou can't find a way to save me, then I must be hopeless..."
"Mingzhu," Li Longji interrupted Mingzhu, wanting to express his determination to take care of her no matter what, but Mingzhu interrupted him again:
"Listen to me, because I may lose my sight at any time, so I want to make a quick decision and end it all while I can still see!" Mingzhu's voice suddenly changed.
She became decisive, and she was no longer the gentle and humble girl she was just now.
Li Longji's emotions were involuntarily attracted by Mingzhu, and he asked in a low voice:
"What you mean by quick victory -"
"Let the emperor give up the throne as soon as possible, let your father ascend the throne, and make you the prince!"
Li Longji was shocked. He didn't expect that Mingzhu would say such words so straightforwardly. But Mingzhu's words were far from over. He just heard her continue:
"I have thought about it. There are only two ways to go now. One is to let the emperor voluntarily abdicate and then appoint a successor to the throne. The other is to let the emperor die voluntarily and let someone else take the throne. But these two options, no matter which one we choose
, the throne cannot fall on your head, because you are only the emperor's nephew, and he himself has a son, so it is more appropriate for your father to take over the throne temporarily. After all, if your father becomes the emperor, the throne will naturally follow in the future.
It’s yours.”
Mingzhu's words were spoken quickly and urgently, as if she was just telling Li Longji a very natural thing, and all he had to do was do it. She had no regard for Li Longji's ability to bear it.
In fact, Mingzhu's words shocked Li Longji so much that he was stunned for a long time before he asked in a deep voice:
"Mingzhu, do you know what you just said?"
"I know." Mingzhu nodded affirmatively, "What's wrong? Didn't you hear clearly?"
Li Longji looked at Mingzhu helplessly:
"Then do you know that every word you just said is enough to make you lose your life and bring harm to the nine tribes again!"
Mingzhu nodded nonchalantly and said:
"Of course I know this. In fact, I came back just to do these things that would kill heads and harm the nine tribes. So if I don't do these things, it would be a waste of time!" Mingzhu's tone suddenly dropped,
"What's more, I don't have much time to waste now!"
