The Prince Consort's Beloved

Chapter 117 Summer Rain

In the green plum garden.

The cicadas in the big trees kept chirping.

Li Yuanrou stretched out on the bed in her underwear, shouting about the heat with despair.

Xiao Luobai handed a piece of paper to her: "Take a look, what have you found?"

Li Yuanrou took it and read it once, then read it again, and shook his head in confusion.

Xiao Luobai sat on the edge of the bed, keeping it a secret: "Don't you look familiar?"

Li Yuanrou read it again, and suddenly realized what was going on. She pointed to the names in a row and said, "These officials are all ministers in the court who were won over by my elder sister."

She asked again in confusion: "What's the problem?"

Xiao Luobai went straight to the bed and replied, "The daughters of the officials above are all considered by Li Yuanqi to be included in the list of concubines."

Li Yuanrou was puzzled again. "In order to prevent foreign relatives from interfering in politics, the family of those who entered the palace to become queens and concubines must not have anyone serving as an official in the court. Yuanqi is not stupid. Those people are all powerful officials. How could they give up their official careers and power just for their daughters to enter the harem?"

Xiao Luobai put his arm around her waist and gently lifted Li Yuanrou up.

He covered her from behind and whispered in her ear: "Li Yuanqi is not stupid, but you are a little stupid, Madam."

Li Yuanrou exclaimed: "It's daytime now."

Xiao Luobai arched his eyebrows and answered irrelevantly: "There is no one in the yard."

The wind is coming.

The summer rain comes suddenly, fine and dense.

There was lightning in the sky, and the rain was heavy and the wind was strong, like a raging wave.

Li Yuanrou raised her moist eyes and said, "I haven't done anything recently."

Xiao Luobai snorted coldly: "Why did our book appear in the hands of other men?"

Li Yuanrou's voice trembled: "It's none of my business."

Xiao Luobai's movements were slightly slow, with a smile in his eyes. He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Anyway, this booklet came from your hands."

The rain was like a kite with a broken string, swaying in the air, and wet like the tears of a sad person.

Sobbing sounds accompanied the falling rain.

The rain was unpredictable, hitting the ground from all directions.

A clear voice emerged in Xiao Luobai's mind.

"You lied to me!"

"You killed my entire clan, why did you leave me alone alive!"

"You want to tie me up in this deep palace, but I won't do as you wish!"

Li Yuanrou screamed: "Why did you hit me?"

The rain keeps falling outside the window.

Xiao Luobai smiled cynically and said, "It's fun."

Li Yuanrou cursed fiercely: "Fuck you, you are crazy!"

Xiao Luobai narrowed her eyes slightly. Having been with Li Yuanrou day and night for such a long time, she naturally knew what those messy words of hers meant.

At this time, Li Yuanrou could not see the dangerous look in Xiao Luobai's eyes behind him.

The wind suddenly became stronger, the curtains by the window were blown away, and the ends of the curtains flew out of the window, making rustling sounds. Suddenly, a loud sound was mixed in with the sound of the wind.

Li Yuanrou groaned.

Raindrops fell from the eaves, window frames, walls, and leaves, forming streams of water that splashed onto the ground and gathered into puddles.

Li Yuanrou angrily scolded: "You didn't let my elder sister..., and you yourself..."

Xiao Luobai's deep voice was accompanied by a smile: "Others can't do that, but I'm different."

The summer rain falls lightly like a big net from the sky, covering the moist earth.

The summer breeze blows gently, making the drizzle fall sideways.

That clear voice came out again.

"Your Majesty, I wish you a long life...hahaha..."

The blood of suicide gushed out.

A large area of red filled Xiao Luobai's eyes.

He was absent-minded and couldn't help shouting: "Zhao Zhao!"

Li Yuanrou asked: "Who is Zhao Zhao?"

Xiao Luobai's eyes were firm: "It's you!"

Li Yuanrou said: "I am Li Yuanrou!"

The bright red in Xiao Luo's eyes disappeared in an instant.

His eyes softened, and he said decisively: "Yes, you are Li Yuanrou, you are Rou'er, my Rou'er."

Zhao Zhao of the previous life is dead, and the emperor is also dead. He is Xiao Luobai and she is Li Yuanrou. He will never let her down again in this life.

A gust of wind blew upwards, causing the branches in the rain to sway in the wind.

On the huge trees that blocked out the sun in the Green Plum Garden, layers of green leaves rustled in the rain.

The clear voice in my head started again.

"I never loved you!"

A clear voice with a smile: "Your Majesty must live a long life... Live a long life, and die alone..."

Xiao Luobai's gaze suddenly became sharp. He closed his eyes, extinguished the anger in his eyes, and in an instant replaced it with tenderness.

He smiled. That was right. This was him, Xiao Luobai. This gentleness was for the love of his life.

He suddenly asked: "Rou'er, do you love me?"

Li Yuanrou said angrily: "I don't love you!"

The summer rain was blown by the wind, and the ends of the curtains were wet by the rain.

A loud voice sounded again in the wind.

Xiao Luobai's Adam's apple moved and his eyes became more and more burning.

He whispered softly: "Rou'er, I love you."

Li Yuanrou cried and said, "It hurts..."

Xiao Luobai touched the red palm print on the round part, and the undercurrent of emotions in his eyes gradually subsided. He suddenly asked again: "Rou'er, if one day you and I separate..."

Li Yuanrou interrupted him sharply: "No!"

Xiao Luobai's eyes flickered, and it took a long time for them to calm down, eventually turning into silent pity.

His brows were filled with tenderness, and he whispered, "Okay, as you say..."

There was a thunderstorm and lightning.

Li Yuanrou cried in her voice: "Husband...can you..."

Xiao Luobai leaned over to her ear, his warm breath spraying on her soft earlobe, and he whispered softly: "Okay, everything is up to you..."

A flash of lightning as bright as day split the sky.

The sudden rain stopped quickly.

In the unattended plum garden, the crying sound seemed particularly abrupt.

Xiao Luobai sighed helplessly, his eyes full of pampering.

He stretched out his fingers to wipe away the tears from Li Yuanrou's eyes and said sadly: "You cry so much, what should I do in the future..."

The summer rain stopped for a few moments and then fell again, splashing a layer of white mist.
