Xiaoxiao's fingers trembled slightly, she lowered her eyes, and a line of tears fell down her cheeks. She remained silent, but the answer was already obvious.
Baili Yeheng lowered his eyes. For a long time, he didn't speak. It seemed that as long as there was silence, the rift between them would be closed silently. However, Yingying's suppressed sobs always reminded him of what was going on between him and Xiaoxiao.
It has changed.
"You all go down." Baili Yeheng frowned and waved his sleeves feebly.
Mei Mei put Ying Ying down, and the two of them hurriedly left the room, Mei Mei even carefully closed the door.
Baili Yeheng took off his shoes and lay down next to Xiaoxiao. He carefully hugged her into his arms and said softly: "Xiaoxiao, I know you have resentment in your heart, but... they can do it, why is she alone?
no?"
Xiaoxiao bit her lip and murmured: "Heng, did I disappoint you?"
Baili Yeheng kissed her forehead gently, rubbed his chin gently on her cheek, and said affectionately: "No, I'm very happy. You, who have always been indifferent, can be jealous of me, I'm very happy. It's just that
...Can you please stop using such an extreme method? I'm so scared. If something happens to you... I'm really scared."
Xiaoxiao buried her face in Baili Yeheng's chest, with tears streaming down her face. She shook her head and said, "I'm sorry... I really want to be the right-hand man who makes you proud, but I can't, Heng...
You fell in love with her, you love her more than you love me... I'm so scared that one day she will completely replace me in your heart. If this day comes, I would rather end my life as soon as possible.
"
Baili Yeheng was shocked all over. The next moment, he held Xiaoxiao tighter, holding her delicate earlobe in his mouth, and murmured over and over again: "No, no...
....You will always be the most important person in my heart, so don’t do such stupid things again, okay?”
Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, she just lay on Baili Yeheng's chest, crying like a child.
Baili Yeheng hugged her quietly. He couldn't even remember how long it had been since she cried. It was all because of him that made her sad. Thinking of this, Baili Yeheng felt sad. Could it be that Xiaoxiao and
Huai Mo Ran, couldn't he have them both at the same time? No, neither of them could be missing!
Baili Yeheng didn't know that his hand was tightening unconsciously. Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, but didn't say anything. She knew that her current behavior was a bit despicable, but Baili Yeheng was hers and everything she had.
world, then...she would not allow anyone to take him away.
...
When the morning light first appeared, a dark cloud was about to move, covering up the ray of light on the horizon. Then, in an instant, it covered the sky and covered the earth, followed by rolling thunder.
Immediately, a bolt of lightning split the dark sky, followed by heavy rain.
The door to the file room, which had been closed all night, slowly opened, and Huai Moran walked out exhausted. Because she had not slept all night, her complexion was a little sallow, and she didn't seem to have much energy. She stood on the corridor, looking at the sky.
Rain Curtain, I don’t know what I’m thinking.
Liangchen brought an umbrella over and opened it in front of Huai Moran, "My dear, the rain will get you wet, so you'd better go back first."
Huai Moran looked back with a smile and said lightly: "How can you be so weak?"
"Your Majesty has been in poor health, so it's better not to force yourself." Liangchen frowned and continued.
Huai Moran didn't speak. Behind him, Ye Si and four others stood there with bows. They were all curious about why this thin woman was so wise. Every move they made was exquisite and unparalleled.
"Remember, this matter is confidential and must be handled properly." After a while, Huai Moran turned around and said calmly.
"yes."
Huai Moran stopped talking and turned around and walked towards the room.
One night, she made all the arrangements according to her predictions. Those plots that could be vaguely guessed but would definitely have discrepancies made her unable to restrain her excitement.
Yes, it's excitement. In her previous life, when she performed tasks, she was cold, but she felt excited every time. She would formulate her own murder plan and control everything about the other party in her hands. That feeling of hunting,
Her blood boiled every time. Perhaps, in the eyes of others, the killer was cruel, but in her eyes, everyone she killed was doing harm to the people.
This is probably like **, "twisted justice".
"Mother, you have been awake for several days, so you should rest today." When he came to the door, Liangchen still told Huai Moran with some worry.
Huai Moran nodded slightly: "Ask them to prepare hot water. I fell asleep after taking a bath."
"Let's have something to eat." Liangchen said hurriedly with a smile on his face.
Huai Moran looked at her. She had always cared about him very much. If it were in this country of China, she would probably be the only one who could be regarded as a relative. Ning Qing was still young and had abandoned herself, but she was different. She had always
Everyone chooses to stand on their own side and is always caring.
Huai Moran suddenly wanted to be pretentious. She hugged Liangchen into her arms and said softly: "Thank you, Liangchen."
Liangchen was flattered, but she was also deeply moved by Huai Moran's behavior. Although it is the duty of every slave to take care of the master, how many masters can express their gratitude so sincerely?
"Empress, this is what I should do..." Liangchen gently patted Huai Mo Ran on the back.
Huai Moran let go of her, smiled softly, turned around and stepped into the threshold.
Liangchen was stunned because she just saw... tears in Huai Moran's eyes.
She...isn't actually that strong.
After taking a bath, Huai Moran ate something, then climbed onto the couch and prepared to sleep. When Liangchen was packing up the dishes and preparing to leave, Huai Moran suddenly said: "No matter who comes today, don't let them in. I'm tired. I want to leave."
Have a good rest and don't see anyone."
Liangchen frowned and looked worriedly at Huai Moran, who was turning his back. After a long time, he said softly: "I know." She turned around and left helplessly. She had hoped that His Highness the Crown Prince would come back soon, but now she started to
I hope he won't come over, otherwise, whether she can stop him or not is the second best thing, but I am afraid that he will break in and quarrel with the empress again.
That day, it was raining and the wind was blowing wildly. Baili Yeheng stayed in Xiaoxiang Pavilion for the whole day, but he didn't know whether it was because of the heavy rain or because the woman in his arms was too fragile. He was afraid that if he let go, she would run away again.
As for Chongzi Villa, it was more silent and solemn today than before. I slept until the afternoon. When I woke up, I saw the empty room and my heart seemed to be hollowed out. Even though I had no expectations, no matter what I said, I didn’t want anyone to disturb me.
, but she seemed to be used to his domineering attitude, used to him always breaking into the room when she was sleeping, used to seeing him looking at her with his chin in his hands as soon as she woke up.
Sometimes, habits are really scary things.
Huai Moran sighed leisurely, got up, cleaned up, opened the door, and called Liangchen, she said calmly: "Let people prepare and go to the fifth prince's house."
Liangchen's face was full of surprise, and he said in astonishment: "My Lady, what are you doing there? This rainy day... Besides, many people now blame the death of the fifth prince on the prince, you go over now...
..It’s like getting yourself into trouble.”
Huai Mo Ran looked calm and said coldly: "I have my own thoughts."
Liangchen wanted to say something else, but seeing that Huai Moran was so determined, she couldn't say anything anymore. She had to go and tell her subordinates to prepare, and at the same time find someone to inform Baili Yeheng. But then she thought about it, His Highness the Crown Prince was busy with his affairs.
, the empress didn’t want him to worry about it, so she gave up the idea.
At this time, only Ye Si was left in Chongzi Villa. After the other three received the mission, they each led a group of people to get busy. Ye Si learned that Huai Moran was going down the mountain to the fifth prince's residence. He hesitated for a moment and asked Liangchen
He said: "Young lady, do you think you should tell His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Liangchen rolled his eyes and sneered: "The prince has no time to take care of the empress. Besides, the empress never does unnecessary things, so don't tell him first."
Ye Si was surprised by Liangchen's boldness, but after following Huai Moran for so long, he admired Huai Moran from the bottom of his heart. Seeing her tired face last night, and thinking of the prince's highness coming and going in a hurry, he nodded silently: "I understand."
Liangchen's expression softened a lot. She patted Ye Si on the shoulder with a smile, and said a little casually: "Excuse me, protector~"
No one has ever been so close to him and had such a cordial contact. Ye Si looked at Liang Chen with a smile on his face and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart, "Don't worry, I will make arrangements to protect the owner of the village."
When everything was ready, Liangchen accompanied Huai Mo Ran on the carriage. Huai Mo Ran asked curiously: "In the past, Ning Qing was always making trouble. What's going on these days?"
Liangchen smiled strangely, "What else can happen? Ever since the empress started to be busy, Zang Xin has stopped being lukewarm to the princess. In the past few days, the girl has been hanging around Zang Xin every day. How can she care about it?"
Where are you, empress?"
Huai Mo Ranqing smiled slightly: "You are just starting to fall in love. It's great to be young."
"Pfft~ Your Majesty is only twenty-eight years old, and she talks as if she is seventy or eighty years old. But that's fine, the princess has never known about the death of the fifth prince, otherwise... how could she still be in the mood to play? The fifth prince
The relationship with her is better than the relationship between her and the prince."
Huai Moran was a little surprised, not because of the last sentence, but because Ning Qing didn't know about the fifth prince. But she soon understood that Ning Qing was everyone's beloved little sister, and no one wanted to make her sad.
It was also normal. Thinking about it, she felt a little envious of Ning Qing. When would someone think about her like this?
After traveling for about half an hour, the carriage stopped in front of the Fifth Prince's Mansion. At this time, the Fifth Prince's Mansion showed no signs of decay, and the stone lions at the door became more majestic and ferocious under the wash of rain.
The housekeeper heard the knock on the door and hurried over. When he saw it was a stranger, he couldn't help but asked curiously: "Who are you looking for?" Although Huai Moran is famous in the capital, few people have seen her. The last time Huai Moran came here
, in the chaos, the old housekeeper didn't notice who was holding Baili Fusu, so naturally he couldn't recognize her.
Huai Mo Ran took out a jade pendant from his sleeve. When the butler saw the jade pendant, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he immediately respectfully made way for him: "I am stupid, I don't know that this is a distinguished guest. Please come in."
Huai Moran shook his head and said calmly: "Today, I am here to pay homage to the soul of the fifth prince... I wonder if the housekeeper can lead the way?"
The old butler's eyes were slightly red, as if he was still grieving for his master's death. He nodded and said hurriedly: "Girl, please come with me."
Liangchen held an umbrella and protected Huai Moran as he walked forward. On the way, Huai Moran noticed that the entire mansion was very clean, and the servants were busy in an orderly manner, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
The old housekeeper brought Huai Moran to the door of a wing on the west side. Seeing her full of suspicion, he explained: "The master often travels around the world. The servants have long been accustomed to it and never neglect it. This time the master encountered an unexpected event...
...We have the right to think that the master has gone out to enjoy the mountains and rivers..." At this point, the old housekeeper burst into tears, shook his head and said: "The master is such a good person... Oh,
God is unfair."
A trace of sadness flashed in Huai Moran's eyes, and he comforted: "Old housekeeper, don't be too sad, the emperor will definitely give your master an explanation..."
