The patron saint glanced at Li Chengqi and said casually:
"Please come with the county prince," Liehu said. After he and King Linzi finish discussing the matter, he will invite the two princes to discuss the current major matters."
Li Chengqi's heart moved. He wanted to see what the patron saint's expression was now so that he could judge what he meant by his words. However, the black robe on the patron saint's body held him tightly from head to toe.
After wrapping it up, Li Chengqi couldn't see anything. He and Li Longji looked at each other and immediately reached an agreement - go over and take a look at the situation first.
The patron saint led brother Li Chengqi into the Fang family's garden through the small door. When they reached the center of the garden, the patron saint suddenly said:
"If the prince feels bored sitting in his room for a while, why not take a walk in this garden."
Li Chengqi felt more and more that the reason why the patron saint invited the two brothers to come today was actually for him and not for his third brother. Now that the patron saint said so, he just happened to come down the slope to see the patron saint.
What is the real intention? So he said:
"Brother, it's your thoughtfulness. I'll just walk around here. The morning breeze is just right and the morning fog is thinning. It's a great time to enjoy the flowers."
The patron saint bowed slightly:
"The prince is really an elegant man. If that's the case, then let the prince do what he wants."
Li Chengqi was secretly amused:
'You brought me into the garden early in the morning, so what can you do if I am indecent?'
At this time, Li Longji also felt that there was something wrong with this matter, so he deliberately fell half a step behind, approached Li Chengqi and shouted:
"Brother..."
Li Longji hesitated to speak, because he knew the abilities of the patron saints and knew that no matter how low his voice was, he could not escape their ears. However, Li Chengqi was very free and easy:
"Third brother, you can go ahead with peace of mind. Hunter Fox is an upright gentleman and will not harm us. Besides, since he saved us, we should also listen to what they think."
The implication of Li Chengqi’s words is very clear:
'The Fang family saved two of our lives as soon as they took action. My father's life still needs to be saved by them, so at this time, we should try our best to accommodate them.'
Li Longji understood what Li Chengqi meant, so he said no more and followed the patron saint straight to the front yard.
Li Longji walked away, but Li Chengqi's heart was beating more and more wildly. Although he spoke calmly in front of Li Longji just now, he actually knew that deep in his heart was buried a secret that could not be told to outsiders.
expectations - after going through so much trouble to separate herself from her third brother, does she want to see me alone?
Li Chengqi didn't dare to let himself continue to think about this idea, because he was afraid that if he hoped too much, he would be more disappointed in the end. However, although his reason was desperately reminding him, Li Chengqi could not restrain himself from looking forward to...
Suddenly, a call like a warbler came from behind him. Li Chengqi didn't look back, but he closed his eyes tightly as if he was struck by lightning, "It's really she who's here, it's really she who wants to see her."
Himself.' At that moment, Li Chengqi felt that his heart ached. He only had one thought in his mind now, that she really came to see him first after returning! Based on this, he would go through fire and water for her in this life, and he would have no regrets.
.
Li Chengqi calmed down for a long time before turning his head. Although he turned around, he still did not dare to look directly into Mingzhu's eyes and asked in a low voice:
"Why are you back again? How is your mother?"
Mingzhu's heart warmed up. Li Chengqi didn't ask about Nishang Yuyi's secret or what happened to her, but asked about her condition and her mother first. Mingzhu smiled slightly, but it was a pity that Li Chengqi couldn't see this.
A smile that makes all the flowers and plants in the garden eclipse:
"I rescued my mother, but I left with my colorful clothes, so I don't know if something will happen to my mother again. But I have to come back, because I found out after I got home that you and King Linzi still
There are emperors who have been harmed by evil spirits, and only colorful feathers can save you."
"Thank you." Li Chengqi said sincerely.
Mingzhu suddenly smiled mischievously:
"Don't you blame me for bringing Nishang Yuyi away to bring you such a big disaster?"
Li Chengqi shook his head seriously:
"I never thought about it that way. You didn't take Nishang Yuyi away, it was God who made it leave with you, so I can only be grateful that you came back to save me."
"You are such a gentleman. Sometimes I find it hard to imagine how a person like you can be an emperor. An emperor can't be too much of a gentleman, right?" Mingzhu asked with some sigh.
Li Chengqi sighed softly:
"Actually, I no longer want to be the emperor."
"Why? You are the eldest son of the emperor. Logically speaking, you should be the emperor?" Mingzhu felt very strange.
For such a question, Li Chengqi had already prepared several different answers, waiting to give a corresponding explanation immediately after different people asked this question. But he did not want to use those lies to perfunctory
Mingzhu, I don't know why, in front of Mingzhu, he can naturally tell the deepest secrets hidden in his heart, without worrying at all that Mingzhu will betray him or laugh at him.
Li Chengqi said leisurely:
"Once, I was a prince, and I felt that I should be the emperor. But then I was no longer the prince, so I wanted to take back both the crown prince's position and the emperor's position. I believe that I have the ability, and I believe that I can definitely do it.
Be a good emperor."
When Li Chengqi said these words, he did not incorporate much heroic tenderness. On the contrary, his attitude was extremely calm, and it was this calmness that made everyone believe from the bottom of their hearts that what he said was true.
It's true, he must have the ability to take back the throne, and he must be a good emperor.
Mingzhu looked at Li Chengqi and nodded secretly:
"Yes, this is the real Li Chengqi that I have always observed. Underneath his humility, he hides his majestic ambition and the self-confidence of a king."
Li Chengqi then said:
"Later, changes happened one after another in my family. Suddenly, our family changed from a real royal family to the most bullied family. At that time, I thought, I must unite with my younger brothers and sisters to strengthen our family.
Strength, never let others bully our brothers and sisters again."
Mingzhu nodded:
"You have done a good job in this regard. You and King Linzi are really close brothers. Your kind of love is rarely seen among the royal family."
Li Chengqi breathed out softly. These words have been pressing in his heart for many years. Today it is rare to meet someone he wants to talk to. He feels like a woman who has walked away in the cold night.
A person who has been waiting for a long time is like finally seeing a fire. He just wants to throw himself on it and never leave.
"Later, when the third brother grew up, I discovered that he also wanted to be the emperor, and was very suitable to be the emperor, so I made up my mind. If I really take back the throne one day, the third brother also wants to be the emperor.
If he is the emperor, then I will definitely not compete with him, and I will definitely not let the tragedy of fratricide happen between our brothers. For this, I would rather give up the throne. This is what I thought in the past."
"Have your past thoughts changed your current thoughts?" Mingzhu asked.
Li Chengqi turned his body slightly to look at the flower branches in front of him intently, and then replied:
"Later, you told me your story, and I witnessed with my own eyes the sudden disappearance of Nishang Yuyi after you were killed. You may not know that after you were killed by Shangguan Wan'er with poisoned wine, I
For most of the day, I have been holding your body..."
Mingzhu's eyes suddenly widened. She really didn't know that there was such a thing. Li Chengqi continued:
"At that time, there was always a little warmth in your heart. It wasn't until Nishang Yuyi disappeared that the warmth completely disappeared. Therefore, I always felt that your soul must not be dead. It must have brought Nishang Yuyi back to the place you once loved.
The place I mentioned. From that moment on, I made up my mind
After I helped my father and third brother stabilize the throne, I gave up everything to find you. No matter where the world ends, whether it was the past life or the next life, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will find you." Li Chengqi's voice became louder and louder.
It’s getting lighter and lighter. “I found out by myself in front of my mother’s grave.
I swore that I would never snatch anything from my third brother in this life, but I never thought that I would meet you in this life. So, you returned to your world, which is good news to me, because in that world
There is no third brother, as long as I can find it, it is possible for me to be with you...
"Li Chengqi's voice was so soft that Mingzhu couldn't even hear it. Li Chengqi didn't dare to look back for a long time, because he was also shocked by his bold confession. He never thought that one day, he, Li Chengqi, would...
You would say something like this to a girl.
And Mingzhu was also stunned. Although she didn't really hear what Li Chengqi said, the girl's unique sensitivity made her think of what Li Chengqi said. Mingzhu felt at a loss for a moment. A person like Li Chengqi
Such a man's confession is always more disturbing than a confession from a young man who has just begun to have an affair.
The two people were deadlocked here for a while. After a long time, Li Chengqi broke the deadlock. He cheered up slightly and his voice became much clearer:
"Mingzhu, I'm sorry to tell you this. You must still have a lot of trouble when you come back this time. Do you need my help?" As Li Chengqi spoke, he turned around and looked at Mingzhu. This is still
This morning, he looked directly at Mingzhu for the first time. When he saw it, Li Chengqi couldn't help but was stunned again. The calmness and ease he had just pretended suddenly fell apart again.
