The Hickey of the Demon Lord: The Substitute Princess

Chapter 236

His gaze swept across her somewhat pale face coldly, speaking coldly and without mercy. "I didn't blink an eye when I sacrificed 500 people in order to capture the mountain tops occupied by the enemy country in one fell swoop. The lives of hundreds of people in Xidu are not worth mentioning at all."

She was silent for a long time before she asked quietly, the look in her eyes was extremely hurt. "I'm curious, what scale is used to measure the importance and importance in your eyes, I'm really curious..."

He looked at her, and said an impulsive word without thinking: "You are the kindness of a woman."

Su Min turned her eyes away and didn't see the regret in his eyes. These words made her feel a little lonely and lost, as if they were going to take two completely different paths.

Her heart was a little flustered.

This disagreement made her feel powerless and even more helpless, as if she couldn't see the result.

Did she think wrong?

To become a woman next to the emperor, should she be ignorant or not lose herself? She was confused and panicked, and could hardly keep her composure.

Locking his figure firmly, she couldn't feel his apology, so her smile was a little vague. "I don't want to admit how ignorant and kind I am, but I sacrificed so many lives without trying anything. I am willing to continue the benevolence of a woman."

Nangong Zheng's black eyes were cold, as if he was hiding deeper emotions. He knew that if she didn't insist, she would definitely do it. He didn't want to face the pain and suffering of losing her again.

Not to mention the place where the plague spread, even if it was a night walk, he wished he could walk by her side.

"After I finish what I have to say, I should rest." She buried her face, and there was nowhere to hide her sadness.

"Are you driving me away?" He was displeased and frowned. After so many twists and turns, she had never rejected him once.And he has long been used to her warm and soft body. On the last night they were about to separate, she didn't hesitate to shut him out of her door?

She gritted her teeth, the four words of woman's benevolence were so heavy that she could hardly breathe normally.He seemed to be separated from each other by a wall, and the cold wall made her hit a nail. "I'll leave tomorrow morning. As you wish, I don't want to be too tired from traveling and traveling. Let me rest early. It's not an excessive request."

It was difficult for him to express his emotions when he was rejected by Su Min, because at this moment he was about to lose his mind, and the vague gap between them made him feel bitter for the first time.

He looked at her deeply and said. "I thought that the relationship between us no longer needs to be explained in words."

"Sorry, I can't meet your expectations..."

These were the last words Nan Gongzheng heard when he left her room, but when he turned around again, what he saw was her turning sideways, taking off her outer robe, and unbuttoning the pink curtain.

Silent loneliness slowly spread in the air, he turned his face away, seemingly calm.

He opened the door, closed it behind his back, and stood in front of her door. The rare smile that she used her warm hands to relieve his chill just now appeared in front of her eyes, as if it was a flash in the pan and priceless.

He stood there for a long time, not sure whether it was because he was too busy recently and was overwhelmed, or there was a special emotion that made him almost lose tolerance and was ready to move.

Su Min locked herself in the curtain, not letting anyone see her powerlessness at the moment, she sighed softly, and her face became even paler.

She needed to calm down, she didn't want to stab herself, and she didn't want to say something else that might hurt him.

He seemed to be entangled in other things and had no time to take care of Xidu, that's why he was so decisive. She didn't want to admit that Nangong Zheng was the kind of unscrupulous, no matter how many lives he sacrificed, he felt that they were not worth mentioning, as contemptuous as ants.

In the past, because he wanted to become stronger and come back to take revenge, he used to have blood on his hands and a harsh temperament, but now, does she really want to obey him, watch him, and bear those responsibilities?
She is not willing.

She hoped that she could, bit by bit, untie the knot in his heart and remove the weight from his body.

If only he could know.

She doesn't just sympathize with those Xidu people, and she doesn't just hope that he can become a ruler. She also hopes that he can live a different life from before.

Perhaps this intention was hard for him to see clearly.

She smiled bitterly, raised her face, and kept the salty tears from welling up in her eyes.

This is not the time to cry alone.

early morning.

In the side hall of the Qianyang Palace of the Imperial Palace, he sat alone at the table without moving his chopsticks, as if he was waiting for someone.

This night, maybe they were the same as each other, calmed down and thought about many things.

A sound of light footsteps slowly fell into his ears, he frowned slightly, raised his eyebrows, and looked towards the door.

She was wearing a light golden simple silk gown and the fur cloak he gave her, her long hair was combed behind her head, and a white jade comb on top of the plain bun was shining with a faint brilliance. She had an elegant posture, calm and virtuous, as if she had died , without any trace of sharpness.

"Are you waiting for me to have breakfast?"

She walked to his side, sat down, and asked with a slight smile.

He pushed the porcelain plate containing sweet pastries in front of her, picked up the chopsticks, and stopped talking.

There was a brief silence between them, and her eyes fell on Nangong Zheng, as if she couldn't get enough of him.

"I've made up my mind, I won't fight against you."

He was suspicious, raised his eyebrows, and felt that things were too calm. "it is true?"

She curled her lips into a smile, and the arc of the smile on the corner of her mouth was raised and widened. Her eyes were bright and her expression was calm, as if she were lying. "Of course, someone once told me that my body is not only my own, but also his. If it is damaged by a disease, someone will be more sad than me."

"It's good to know." He finally felt relieved, his expression was no longer so serious, he lowered his head, and picked up the food by himself.

She took a bite of Wufu Cake, her eyes were full of smiles, and she couldn't hide it no matter what. "That bakery again? Did you ask the maid to buy it?"

He nodded, cherishing words like gold.

She lowered her eyebrows, chewing the sweetness in her mouth carefully, maybe not only because of the pastry, but also the sweetness in her heart. "It's so kind to me."

He looked at her eating the pastry, he seemed to feel the sweetness, and it was also full, deep in his heart.

He didn't know how long it would take before he could see her.

Of course, he will meet her again as a winner.

Now, he doesn't want to tell her what he is planning. He knows that she will know clearly in due time, and he will definitely not want to leave the capital alone.

"When you arrive in Los Angeles, write to me."

"it is good."

"Don't think about yourself, and read the ledger all night and all night."

"it is good."

"It's time to eat when it's time to eat, don't always eat these pastries."

"Ah."

"If you want to go out, you must wear this cloak I gave you."

"Ah."

"If there are any difficulties and dangers, don't make up your own mind, remember to inform me."

"..."

Su Min put down the chopsticks in his hand, lay down beside the table, and looked at him with a smile. "Now let me explain the matter."

"If you are free, write me back."

He nodded.

"Don't disregard your body, criticize the memorial all night and all night."

He still nodded.

"It's time to eat when it's time to eat. Don't always feel that you are invincible."

Hearing this, he smiled slightly.

"Every day, a court lady will bring you medicinal soup, drink it while it's hot, it's good for your health."

He looked at her with a smile and said nothing.

She secretly made a decision in her heart, and she didn't have time to imagine whether this approach would run counter to Su Min in the past.

"If you miss me and think you can't extricate yourself, I hope you can remember this gift I gave you before I left."

what gift?
He was a little puzzled, he thought it was clothes, medicinal materials or something else, but he didn't have time to guess her answer.

She suddenly turned her face away, stood up, and pressed a kiss on his thin lips.

She sat back in her seat, as if asking for his opinion: "Of course, this gift is a bit too hasty, I don't know if you like it or not."

"Silly girl."

He sighed, but there was a gentle smile in his eyes, which made the originally cold handsome face more attractive.

Finally, it's time to say goodbye.

Su Min sighed again, staring at the clear winter sky beyond the window lattice.

It has only been half a year since he took the throne, and she hopes to see that the weather is calm and the country is peaceful and the people are safe.

"How long will it take for the world to be peaceful?"

The man behind him was silent, he just tightened his arms and hugged her tighter and tighter, embracing her in his heart, the safest place.

The day, from sunny to cloudy, finally began to snow.

The wind and snow fluttered, one after another.

There was a thin layer of snow on Nangong Zheng's shoulders, and the cold snow water was melted by his body temperature and drenched his blue clothes.The cold wind was piercing, and he just stood there, staring intently and looking into the distance, until Su Min's figure disappeared into the heavy snow and could not be seen again.

Then, he clenched his fists, turned around with a cold expression, and strode away from the window.

she left.

And he still has a tough battle to fight.

The capital city in the next few days is likely to be the most unsafe place.

The next day.

The whole plum garden was surprisingly quiet.

Su Min, who had nothing else to do, would occasionally sit by the window with a cup of tea in her hand, looking at the budding plum trees, the white snow falling from the sky, and the layer of snow without any footprints in the plum garden.

"Miss." Fan'er's voice, with a little hesitation, drifted into Su Min's ears, breaking Su Min's meditation, she turned her face, facing the direction of the screen.

"How about it, do you still like this dress?"

Su Min smiled, looked at Fan'er who had changed into a jacket from behind the screen, smiled, and asked softly.

Fan'er looked a little unnatural, looking at Su Min's figure, she blushed slightly.

The master's clothes are also made of the same pink and purple silk material, but the embroidery is more complicated and delicate. The delicate and beautiful crabapple flowers are embroidered on the neckline and cuffs. A string of pearl necklaces, more jade-like star circles...
