C28 (1/2)
It was precisely because of this contradictory feeling that he had never shown up in front of her in the days he had brought her back to the palace. There was also one more point, which was that the change in Sixteen caused him to feel a trace of unfamiliarity.
In the past, Zhen Liuxi was innocent, she loved to laugh and cry and also loved to cause trouble. She was even a spoiled girl who acted impulsively and recklessly, who was always at odds with others.
And when he took her back to the palace, he knew the reluctance in her heart, but he did not show it. This kind of independent, strong, calm and collected Zhen Liuxi was something he was unfamiliar with, something that made him panic. She was no longer the A Xi he could see through with a single glance.
”So, don't even think about leaving the palace. The world is mine, you can't escape.”
Her jaw ached slightly. How could the current ruthless him still be that gentle and crazy man from last night? However, he was the Emperor. He could decide whether or not her life in the palace was safe or not. From the moment she entered the palace, she could no longer be herself, so she lowered her body to be gentle to the point …
”I'm not leaving. I'm not going anywhere. I'm just going to stay here.” Her voice was sincere and there was no hesitation in her eyes.
The moment he put his hand down, she suddenly saw that there were large and small horizontal wounds on his wrist. She couldn't help but hold onto that hand as she looked at the countless thin scars on his wrist and ask.
”These injuries?”
As if he completely despised her, Yin Su abruptly flung her hand away and walked out of the six clear palaces without looking back.
From the courtyard, he could hear the terrified sound of Xiao Yu.
”Long live the Emperor.”
Only after Yin Su left did Xiao Yu bring washing water and hot water into the room. Looking at the messy room, the table, and the couch, her face slightly flushed, yet she could not hide her pride and excitement as she blurted out.
”The Emperor is finally willing to let you know that he comes every night.”
”What do you mean?” Shuxi didn't understand.
Xiao Yu happily replied
”From the night you entered the six clear palaces, the emperor would visit you every night when you were asleep. Sometimes he would stay for a while, sometimes he would stay until the sun was about to rise before he left.”
”Why didn't you tell me earlier?”
”The Emperor won't let me speak.”
In an instant, Sixty Four also felt that she didn't understand Yin Su either. He did everything he could to find her and bring her back to the palace, then left her in six clear palaces, but he also came to see her every night after she had fallen asleep, so he didn't want to let her know?
After Yin Su left, she finished washing himself. After eating a simple breakfast, he ordered Xiao Yu to the four treasures in the study room, she wanted to practice his small inscriptions, but because he was used to simple writing in the modern world, he couldn't help but feel that there was a difference in his hand. Although Xiao Yu couldn't understand it, he could tell the difference between good and bad, so he didn't forget to smile and say something.
”The emperor's writing is the best in the imperial court.”
After hearing her words, the tip of the Six Moons Brush froze, and forcefully raised a corner of the last stroke of the ”Wind” character she was writing. If Yin Su saw this, he would laugh at her lack of strength, and would not even be able to hold the brush.
Yin Su's words were indeed written in a grand and vigorous and forceful manner. ) When they were young, they once sought for marriage at a temple outside the city. The old man told them to write a word each, she wrote a word, Yin Su wrote a letter instead. At that time, the old man was so shocked by his ”Xi” word that he forgot that he was looking at who was dressed like a commoner.
”This is incredible. If young master was born in a royal family, the world would be yours.”
Liu Xi admired the elder's capabilities, but Yin Su did not mind and continued to chase after the old man.
”I want to see if it's a marriage alliance.”
The old man stroked his white beard. After looking at it for a long time, he shook his head and muttered some words.
”Deep love.”
”It's a different day, pack up and go home. It's a pity that you weren't born in the royal family. ”
At that time, because of the deep feelings the old man had for him, Yin Su was so angry that he grabbed onto Sixi's hand with extra force.
Liu Xi asked him with a smile
”Do you think the old man is sure?”
Yin Su did not reply, and only tightly held onto her hand as they walked towards the busy city. She was unwilling to give up, so she asked as she walked
”Do you think this old man's judgement is accurate?” This time, Yin Su hugged her and jumped onto his horse carriage to quickly enter the city.
In fact, even he subconsciously knew that it wasn't important if the old man's words were accurate or not. What was important was that in Yin Su's heart, he would rather believe them as correct or not.
To believe that the old man was right was to admit that their relationship was deep and shallow.
If he didn't believe the old man's words, then he was willing to not obtain the throne.
