The Prince Consort's Beloved

After Li Yuanrou came back, she had a feast and forgot all about Xiao Luobai.

Although it's a bit regrettable that the handsome guy wants to commit suicide, she can't do anything about it because no one cares about her.

And she didn't do those things. She was fake. She was just taking the blame. She just wanted to lie down and do nothing.

Li Yuanrou was immersed in her beautiful fantasy of being rich and powerful but having no man, but the two girls had worried looks on their faces.

Daya said worriedly, "If the Prince Consort doesn't come back, how can we explain this to His Majesty?"

Another maid named Erya suggested: "Why not just tie the person up as we did before?"

Daya tapped Erya on the head with her finger: "How dare you tie up the prince consort? Can you take him away? Do you know how many secret guards the prince consort has around him?"

Arya rubbed her head and said, "What can we do? If he doesn't want to reply, then he doesn't have to. Anyway, our princess has someone in her heart."

Daya asked her, "Are you talking about Prince Yun?"

Erya asked curiously, "Doesn't the princess like General He's son He Wenting? The jade pendant bestowed by the late emperor was given to him by the princess."

Li Yuanrou's curiosity suddenly arose. She turned to look at the two maids and asked, "So, who does this princess like?"

Daya chuckled and said, "Princess, how would I know if you asked that?"

Then Daya sighed again: "In fact, I think the Prince Consort is quite good. He is a gentleman, capable of both literature and martial arts. He is in no way inferior to Mr. He and Prince Yun."

As they were chatting, a servant outside the door came hurriedly to report that the eunuch Fulai beside the emperor had come in person to convey the imperial decree, asking Li Yuanrou to go and pick up the prince consort and take him back to the princess's mansion.

Li Yuanrou accepted the order reluctantly, thinking that her brother, the emperor, really cared about her as his son-in-law.

Eunuch Fulai once again instructed: "Your Highness, please bring your husband back to your residence."

Li Yuanrou frowned: "This princess went there today, and he refused to come back."

Eunuch Fu wiped his sweat and said with embarrassment: "Then Princess, please go again. The relief funds for the flood in the south still rely on your husband. Princess, just think of it as a national cause..."

Li Yuanrou suddenly thought of something and raised her head to Fu Lai and said, "Oh, I remember now. Xiao Luobai is going to commit suicide!"

Fulai was startled by her sudden movement of raising her head. After listening to Li Yuanrou's words, he smiled indifferently: "Princess, please don't tease me. No matter who commits suicide, the prince consort will never commit suicide."

Li Yuanrou took a step forward and spoke nervously, "It's true. This princess saw it with her own eyes. He said that time is cruel, the world is boring, and he doesn't want to live anymore! Send someone to keep an eye on him. If he is really dead, it has nothing to do with this princess. This princess didn't do anything to him again."

Eunuch Fu took a step back and distanced himself from Li Yuanrou. He said slowly, "Princess, please don't make excuses to refuse. The most urgent thing is to bring the prince consort back as soon as possible. Censor Cao has already submitted several memorials, and Your Majesty is very annoyed. If you don't bring him back, I'm afraid Censor Cao will have to live in Your Majesty's Changsheng Palace."

Fu Lai shook his head and looked as if he was blaming himself for not being able to share the worries of the emperor.

Li Yuanrou said nothing, looking like she didn't want to go.

She just went there once, and it hasn't been long since then, and she's going again? Doesn't she have any dignity?

Li Yuanrou raised her head proudly and said in a domineering tone that she would not go.

Eunuch Fu looked at her and pointed at the imperial edict in her hand: "Princess, you have received the edict..."

Li Yuanrou was stunned: "Uh..."

That’s right, if you receive the decree, it means you agree, so you have to go...

She laughed shyly twice, narrowed her eyes and looked at Fu Lai, and asked cautiously: "Eunuch Fu, if I return this imperial edict to you now... do you think it's too late?"

Eunuch Fu was shocked all over and took two steps back quickly. He said quickly, "I'll take my leave!" and then ran away like the wind.

Li Yuanrou's attempt to withdraw the imperial edict failed.

She gritted her teeth and frantically found excuses for herself: since she had enjoyed the honor of being the Princess of Shanyang, she should also bear the blame for her misdeeds, all for the sake of future glory and wealth...

She made up her mind and set off for the Prince Consort's Mansion again.

Li Yuanrou thought, forget it, just consider it as a good deed. The prince consort is handsome and rich. If I can coax him well, it would be nice to keep him in the mansion to enjoy his beauty. Maybe I can even get him to give me some money as a gift.

It would be unreasonable for Xiao Luobai not to agree to the princess's visit for the second time. So when Li Yuanrou walked to the main courtyard of the Prince Consort's Mansion, the mansion had already started to clean up.

Li Yuanrou walked into the bedroom with a gentle look on her face: "Prince consort, are you done packing?"

There was no one in the house.

There were a few pieces of paper scattered on the table, not knowing whether they had been picked up in time or were discarded. Li Yuanrou tilted her head to look over curiously. Another poem?

The Milky Way is still on a cold night in early winter.

The moon shines brightly in the deep courtyard.

The red candle has only a short flame.

When will I stop having these dreams?

I don't understand it, but it looks a bit sad.

Just as he was thinking about it, Daya came in and reported that the prince consort was in the attic.

Li Yuanrou responded, turned around to look at the papers on the table again, and walked slowly towards the attic.

Xiao Luobai stood at the railing of the attic, wearing a moon-white robe facing the wind.

A gust of wind came, and the clothes fluttered.

He wore a jade crown on his head and had an upright posture, which could be described as a handsome man.

Although his face still had a sickly look, he did not lose a bit of his charm, and was a graceful gentleman with a bright and handsome appearance.

If he hadn't stood in front of the railing, Li Yuanrou would have been confused. At this moment, Li Yuanrou was terrified. She felt that Xiao Luobai was eager to try and was about to jump down at the next moment.

Li Yuanrou took a deep breath, ran upstairs, and shouted in panic: "If you have something to say, please talk to me nicely. Don't let me get upset."

Her eagerness to save people made the kind-hearted girl have no choice but to hug Xiao Luobai's waist.

Xiao Luobai's body stiffened, then he understood and chuckled: "Princess, do you think I want to commit suicide?"

Li Yuanrou tightened her arms: "Isn't it true? If this princess hadn't come up, you would have jumped down."

Xiao Luobai tried to pry her hands apart, but couldn't budge them.

Li Yuanrou gritted her teeth and hugged him tightly. If someone didn't know her better, they would think she was going to strangle him to death.

She said hastily, "It is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. There is nothing more important in life than life and death. You must live well!"

Seeing that Xiao Luobai didn't say anything, she solemnly advised: "It's nothing that can't be overcome. Life is short, so you must be kind to yourself."

Xiao Luobai frowned slightly, a glimmer of moonlight flashed in his dark eyes, and he patted her hand: "Let go."

Li Yuanrou pressed her whole face against his back, gritted her teeth and used all her strength to tighten the force again: "If you promise me that you won't commit suicide, I will let you go."

Xiao Luo smiled like a white cloud disappearing in the rain, just like the light coming out of the dark clouds, his eyebrows and eyes were stained with a layer of magnificence, he said softly: "Okay, I promise you."

I promise you, I promised you ten years ago...

His eyes seemed to hide hundreds of mountains and rivers, deep and mysterious.

Xiao Luobai curled his lips slightly and explained: "I'm not looking for death, I just came here to get some fresh air and think about some things. The height of this attic is such that I won't die even if I jump down."

Li Yuanrou was stunned, looked at the height of the attic, laughed awkwardly, loosened his arms that were slightly numb from overexerting, shook his arms, and smiled awkwardly: "Ahem, you're thinking about something, why didn't you say so earlier? Have you finished thinking? If you're done, go down."

Xiao Luobai turned his head slightly, his gaze fell on her eyes, and a hint of tenderness suddenly filled his dark pupils: "I've finished thinking about it."

The corners of his lips curved up, and he actually held Li Yuanrou's hand.

Li Yuanrou was led downstairs by him in surprise, and a fine electric shock surged through her palms.

It feels so good to be held hand by a handsome guy.

Although there is no man in her plan to lie down, it seems that it is not unacceptable if it is Xiao Luobai.

Xiao Luobai turned his head and looked at the stunned Li Yuanrou. His thin lips curved again and he chuckled, "Your Highness, let's go. Everything is ready."

Li Yuanrou originally thought that it would take some time to explain, but she didn't expect Xiao Luobai to be so reasonable this time. He was so stern and cold last time, but his attitude changed so quickly in just a short time.

Could it be that he was moved by himself just now?

possible……

She complained in her heart, but her face remained calm, and her legs and feet honestly let him lead the way.

She lowered her eyes to look, and a warm big hand wrapped around her hand. A strange feeling grew in her heart, and Li Yuanrou's face was slightly flushed.

Xiao Luobai glanced at her, his eyebrows slightly raised, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

Li Yuanrou stole another glance at Xiao Luobai and couldn't help asking, "Don't you blame me for hurting you?"

Xiao Luobai smiled faintly and said in a low voice: "Hasn't Her Royal Highness the Princess come to greet me personally? How can I not forgive you? And the Princess' attitude towards me now..."

He paused, raised his eyes, and said meaningfully: "It's very special."

The two of them got into the carriage hand in hand and sat opposite each other.

Originally, Xiao Luobai wanted to pull her to sit next to him, but Li Yuanrou felt embarrassed, so she broke free from his hand and sat opposite him.

Xiao Luobai looked at her and smiled calmly.

The carriage moved forward slowly, and everyone looked at each other in silence. The atmosphere was a little subtle for a moment.

Li Yuanrou glanced at Xiao Luobai out of the corner of her eye. Xiao Luobai was resting with his eyes closed.

"Princess, you can look openly." Xiao Luobai said with his eyes closed.

Li Yuanrou felt like he was caught doing something bad. He twitched the corner of his mouth and thought to himself, is this Xiao Luobai Erlang Shen? Does he have a third eye?

There was a sudden neighing sound and the carriage stopped abruptly. Li Yuanrou lost his balance and fell forward due to inertia.

She buried her head in Xiao Luobai's legs and her nose hit them, causing her tears to well up in her eyes due to the pain.

Society is dead!

Xiao Luobai looked at her teasingly: "Your Highness, can't you wait to throw yourself into my arms?"

At this moment, Li Yuanrou was kneeling on the ground, looking up at him with tears in her eyes. Wasn't it just like throwing herself into his arms?

Li Yuanrou could tell that he was making fun of her, but she was speechless. She stood up, angrily lifted the car curtain, and asked loudly, "What's going on?"

Daya stepped forward and said, "Princess, a child suddenly ran out just now. Fortunately, the driver stopped the horse in time and did not hit anyone."

Li Yuanrou exhaled a breath and lowered the car curtain.

Xiao Luobai looked at her with interest, and asked calmly, "Did Princess ever bump into other people's carriages like this when she was young?"

Li Yuanrou angrily replied: "No!"

The light in Xiao Luo's eyes dimmed and he stopped talking.

When they arrived at the gate of the princess's mansion, Xiao Luobai went down first and stopped Daya who was about to help Li Yuanrou out of the car. His eyes were stern and he glared at Daya quickly. Daya was frightened by his sharp eyes and trembled, and hurriedly stepped back.

Xiao Luobai reached out and helped Li Yuanrou down.

Li Yuanrou's face flushed, and she quickly collected her thoughts, pulled her hand out, and coughed lightly in a pretentious manner: "The yard has been arranged, let your people help move the things in."

Li Yuanrou forced herself to remain calm, straightened her sleeves, and walked into the mansion with leisurely steps. She was a princess, she could not be seduced by beauty, she had to keep her composure.
