Eastward Flow

That kind of smile was so gentle that for a moment Zhong Lisuo thought he was still in a dream.She stared blankly at the person embracing her, and after looking at each other for a while, she realized that she was in the embrace of the queen.A gust of heat rushed from his heart to his forehead, burning Zhong Lisuo's ears red.She subconsciously broke free from Xuan Jingchen's embrace, but fell back into Xuan Jingchen's embrace with a soft hiss because of the injury on her shoulder.

"Be careful." Xuan Jingchen immediately grabbed her, supported her, looked at her wound with concern, and said, "Your Highness is still wounded, please don't move around."

As soon as Zhong Lisuo heard it, he knew that she had recognized him.A heart was both startled and happy, beating non-stop.Her ears were red, even her cheeks were hot, and her head was a mess.The injury on the shoulder was very painful, but to the extent that he could bear it, Zhong Lisuo licked the wet lips just now, and said, "Zitong...why are you here?"

There was no need for her to hide it, nor did she need to avoid it, so she called out that title openly.

Xuan Jingchen rolled his eyes with a smile, looked at the person in his arms and said, "Come and see Your Highness."

Thousands of thoughts drifted through Zhonglisuo's mind. She wanted to ask Xuan Jingchen if she blamed her for hiding it for so long, and also wanted to ask her about Yun Ge last night, but she couldn't ask anything, so she just lowered her head and listened. His heartbeat became faster and faster, almost beating his chest.

She licked her lips, looking very thirsty.Xuan Jingchen supported her, seeing this, said: "Let me pour you another glass for Your Highness."

After she finished speaking, she was about to support Zhong Lisuo to lean against the head of the bed, get up to pour water.Zhong Lisuo quickly grabbed her hand and said, "No need."

Xuan Jingchen lowered his eyes, and saw that Zhong Lisuo's hand was in his hand, and he gently shook it back.The queen's not-so-soft hand was in hers, and the familiar cloves surrounded her from behind. Zhong Lisuo felt very hot. She licked her lips and said, "How long have you been here?"

"Only for a while." Xuan Jingchen responded, she adjusted her position, hugged Zhongli in her arms, and did not tell him that she was guarding her all night without sleep.

"Isn't that a sleepless night?" Zhong Lisuo raised his head and looked at her in panic, "Last night was a mess, and you have to work hard on the follow-up matters for a long time, why don't you take a rest here?"

It seemed that there were no four years of life and death. Zhong Lisuo looked at the queen and thought he was in the deep palace.But at that time, Xuan Jingchen would never hug her like this.

Xuan Jingchen shook his head, and said softly, "The Minister Lezheng is outside."

Zhong Lisuo was startled suddenly, looked beyond the screen, and his heart rose to his throat.Xuan Jingchen said with a smile: "But she fell asleep, His Highness doesn't want them to know, I won't tell."

They have been husband and wife for many years, and they still have this tacit understanding.At this point, Zhong Lisuo understood that Xuan Jingchen had forgiven him.

She smiled gratefully at Xuan Jingchen, and said, "Since that's the case, I have nothing to do now, and it's almost dawn, why don't Zitong go back and rest first."

Xuan Jingchen looked down at her and sighed: "Is that why your Highness doesn't want to see me?"

"That's not the case." Zhong Lisuo shook his head quickly, looked up at her, and said, "I just..."

She met Xuan Jingchen's eyes, saw the smile in her eyes, and said relievedly: "I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you very much."

She missed the queen very much, and she missed the day before the queen left Yuanzhou City.So Zhong Lisuo said frankly, "Since the day Zitong left Yuanzhou, I have missed you every day, wishing I could go north to find you. It's just..."

"Everything is impermanent."

"Zitong, how was Yunge last night? When you left Yuanzhou, I wanted to tell you when you came back."

Zhong Lisuo got up from Xuan Jingchen's arms, turned around, knelt on the bed, held Xuan Jingchen's hand and said tremblingly: "Although I am not a heroic general, nor a civil servant, I have only a crippled body. But in this life , you are the only wife I love."

She stared at Xuan Jingchen and said word by word: "If you come back from the north, if I'm still alive, would you like to die with me?"

She stepped on a cloud song just to tell the queen this sentence.

Xuan Jingchen looked at her softly, with tears in his eyes, and said: "What stupid things did your Highness say? Since I am your wife, I will naturally be inseparable from you."

Just, why do you have to go so fast.

Tears fell from the corners of her eyes, Zhong Lisuo was moved, wiped Xuan Jingchen's cheek with one hand, choked up and said, "I'm sorry...it's me...it's me...for you..."

Xuan Jingchen shook his head, reached out to wipe Zhong Lisuo's face, and said, "I'm stupid, I didn't recognize His Highness, why bother to blame others."

"As long as your Highness comes back."

As Xuan Jingchen said, Zhong Lisuo couldn't bear it any longer, took her into his arms, buried her face in her hair, and let the tears flow.After a while, she let go of Xuan Jingchen, wiped away the tears from her face, wiped the queen's face with one hand, and said: "It is a joy to meet Zitong again today, so don't cry Relatively."

Xuan Jingchen nodded, "The same is true for Your Highness, you still have injuries on your body, so don't worry about it anymore."

Neither of them is too hypocritical, and after a few words, they gradually stabilized their minds.Zhong Lisuo managed to complete what he had been doing all this time. Looking at Xuan Jingchen in front of him, he smiled shyly, "Seeing Zitong at this moment is like being in a dream."

"But this title can't be called now, I have to call you Your Majesty." Zhong Lisuo laughed.

Xuan Jingchen didn't care about this, and said, "Your Highness can call you whatever you want."

Zhong Lisuo shook his head and said, "Because of the etiquette, His Majesty can't call me His Highness anymore. I'm the youngest son of the Marquis of Zhenbei now, so I should obey the rules."

"Then follow His Majesty's instructions, just like before, how about calling you Mr. Xiao?" Xuan Jingchen thought for a while and said.

Zhong Lisuo blushed, touched his nose uncomfortably, and said apologetically, "I was wrong before."

She apologized again, Xuan Jingchen knew what it was for and shook his head.

Zhong Lisuo let out a long sigh, thinking that if he knew this earlier, why did he bother to get close to the queen?

She should stand in front of the queen and say it clearly, why bother to waste a lot of good time with twists and turns.

As she thought this way, there was a faint light leaking in from the window.At the end of the night and dawn, they seemed to be separated again.Zhong Lisuo looked out the window hesitantly, and said to Xuan Jingchen: "It's getting late, if Zitong is still here with me, someone will find out, why don't you go back and rest earlier."

Xuan Jingchen knew this, but she was a little reluctant to part with Zhong Lisuo, she took a good look at Zhong Lisuo, and said warmly: "Your Highness was quite frightened last night, please sleep a little longer, when you wake up, I will bring the imperial physician to see you. "

"En." Zhong Lisuo nodded, but kept holding Xuan Jingchen's hand, not letting go at all.

Xuan Jingchen looked down at Zhong Lisuo's hand, reluctant to part for a moment.She hesitated for a while, and said to Zhong Lisuo: "If His Highness does not give up, I will stay and accompany His Highness."

Zhong Lisuo happily wanted to nod in agreement, but he hesitated when he thought of Le Zhengying outside the screen.Xuan Jingchen understood, and said softly: "Your Highness, didn't you step on a cloud song last night?"

Zhong Lisuo suddenly realized, yes, her behavior last night fell into the eyes of all the officials, and all the officials had already understood their affection for the Queen.If it is known that the queen came to visit her, it can be said that the two are in love.

only……

Zhong Lisuo looked at the queen and said, "I've wronged you." Xuan Jingchen shook his head and replied, "Your Highness is singing for me, but I didn't do anything for His Highness. I admire you so much, as it should be."

When Zhong Lisuo heard it, her heart missed half a beat. She moved closer to the Queen's ear and whispered, "I am the same way."

She thought for a while, and then said to the queen: "I was confused. I mentioned this to my sister earlier, and told her that I liked you and wanted to marry you. She knew about this, so Zitong was willing to stay. Get off, it's better."

Yes, she didn't want Zhenbeihou's family to be sad when they learned the truth, and she really regarded herself as Le Zhengsu. For these, she had to have a natural excuse for everything.

Xuan Jingchen glanced at her in surprise, and said, "So, can I stay with His Highness?"

Zhong Lisuo nodded and said, "Take a break."

Xuan Jingchen smiled, took off his coat and lay down.Zhong Lisuo had an injury on his body, so he moved his position, turned his head to look at her familiar side face, smelled the fragrance of her body, and said in a general way: "Go to sleep."

Xuan Jingchen was indeed sleepy. She lay beside Zhonglisuo, feeling the temperature from that person, and an indescribable tiredness welled up in her heart.As if she had returned to the dormitory many years ago, she fell asleep next to Zhong Lisuo.

The breath of the people around him gradually calmed down, and Zhong Lisuo looked at her peaceful sleeping face, feeling at ease.She stretched out her hand cautiously, crossed the invisible line, and embraced Xuan Jingchen into her arms.

Xuan Jingchen frowned, and obediently buried his face in her arms, making Zhong Lisuo jump for joy.

This person was finally held in her arms.

Zhong Lisuo happily wanted to yell, but she restrained herself and just fell asleep with Xuan Jingchen in her arms.

The sky outside the house was getting brighter, but the two people in the house fell into a dream that couldn't be more beautiful.

As the sun was getting brighter, the maids in Xuan Jingchen's bedroom had not been summoned for a long time. The bold servant An entered the bedroom, but found that the emperor was not there.With a cold face, she went to the study to find out, but found that His Majesty was not there, so she sent someone to ask carefully.

Because the queen didn't go to bed, Officer An was anxious all morning.As for the side hall of Anheyuan, Le Zhengying, who was knocked unconscious by Uncle Feng, woke up leisurely, and when she walked around the screen and saw the two people lying on the bed, she froze in place in shock.
