Ji Rufan was a little happy, but also a little worried.After all, the conditions for the emperor to choose a son-in-law are very complicated.Chu Zhiyao's family background is naturally not good enough, since the emperor said so, he must test and select Chu Zhiyao himself.

When Ji Rufan conveyed the emperor's words to Chu Zhiyao, her expression was more complicated than Ji Rufan's mood at that time.

"Princess, did you really tell the emperor that?"

Ji Rufan nodded, as a tacit consent.

"Great! Really great!" Chu Zhiyao almost jumped up happily.

Ji Rufan looked at her puzzled, wondering if this person was under too much pressure and had already begun to become emotionally confused.

Chu Zhiyao turned around a few times on the spot, ran up to Ji Rufan, gently held her shoulders, and sighed with affection and joy in his eyes: "Princess, you are finally willing to accept my feelings! I thought I have to wait for a long time, I didn't expect you to give me the answer so quickly."

It was only then that Ji Rufan suddenly realized that he had unknowingly revealed his feelings in front of his father.In fact, her feelings for Chu Zhiyao have already evolved.It's just that she never dared to give the other party an accurate answer, because she was afraid that her identity would never give Chu Zhiyao a normal feeling.

After being happy, Chu Zhiyao was not idle.Since her father-in-law wanted to test herself in the future, she naturally did not dare to be negligent. This is the current emperor who has seen all the young talents in the world, so she naturally did not dare to show off her cleverness and planned to fool him.

In fact, she already had a plan in her heart, but because she was concerned about Ji Rufan's feelings,

It is not intended to be adopted lightly.But after several days, Ji Rufan still didn't think of a more suitable solution, and the emperor put pressure on her, forcing her to speak up.

"Princess, have you ever thought that Yuan Yiheng has never inquired about Ma Wang after he has been detained for so long, which is abnormal in itself?"

"It's indeed abnormal. But Ma Wang is in my hands and has been interrogated by his father. It is understandable for Yuan Yiheng not to dare to have anything to do with him openly."

"It's true, but he doesn't seem to be worried that Ma Wang will betray him unless he has enough chips in his hand."

Ji Rufan's eyes sparkled for a moment, and he motioned for Chu Zhiyao to continue.

"Princess, although this method is not the best choice, I still want you to recall the details carefully. Especially the details between Ma Wang and Yuan Yiheng, you must carefully recall them again."

When Chu Zhiyao said this, he was also contradictory.It's not that she doesn't remember how Ji Rufan lived through those extremely tormenting days, and it's not that she doesn't know how painful and cruel it is for a reborn person to recall the dark fate of the previous life.

"Does this really work?"

Chu Zhiyao didn't dare to promise, but still nodded solemnly, at least she thought it was a possibility of a breakthrough.

"If you say it works, then I'll give it a try."

Chapter 76

Because he only revealed the source of his fragility to Chu Zhiyao, Ji Rufan subconsciously regarded Chu Zhiyao as his closest person.Even if they haven't had real intimate contact yet, their tacit understanding has already reached a new level in the accumulated time of getting along.

After bathing and burning incense, in the most relaxed and comfortable environment, Ji Rufan tried to recall that dark memory actively for the first time.The shadow that once burned in their hearts and couldn't get rid of it repeatedly became a necessary condition for them to break through the king of horses.

Chu Zhiyao was by Ji Rufan's side, although there was not much comfort in words, but her warm and soft breath lingering around her had already given Ji Rufan great encouragement.As Princess Yu, in fact, Ji Rufan does not lack those gorgeous and dazzling vassals, nor does she need those hustle and bustle, what she lacks is a low-key but always surrounding warmth.There is no need to deliberately publicize, and there is no need to pay blood to show loyalty, just a simple but always-on company.

"Princess, if you feel uncomfortable, you can stop at any time, and don't force yourself." Before the official start, Chu Zhiyao shook Ji Rufan's hand and warned softly.

The concern in his eyes is sincere, and the concern in the corner of his mouth is tender, Ji Rufan nodded with a smile, and held Chu Zhiyao's hand back.Now she has become more and more fond of holding Chu Zhiyao together like this, which can transmit each other's strength.

Taking a deep breath, Ji Rufan slowly closed his eyes.There was darkness and chaos in front of her eyes, and she tried to open the memory that was sealed in the depths.Starting from her drawing the bow on the hunting ground, the scene changed little by little, and she tried to describe it in words.

Chu Zhiyao listened quietly by the side, he never let go of his hands, nor did he increase his strength.But she could feel that Ji Rufan's palms were gradually sweating, and now she had become Ji Rufan's fulcrum, all she could do for the princess was to continuously transfer her energy to her.

"I escaped with great difficulty, but no one believed what I said! I went to the government to ask for help, but the magistrate said that Princess Yu was in the capital well, and not long ago she attended the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven with her son-in-law."

Ji Rufan was still remembering intermittently, but her voice was mixed with more and more trembling and fear, and the back of Chu Zhiyao's hand was scratched one by one by Ji Rufan's nails.Chu Zhiyao felt a lot of pain, but it wasn't because of his own hand.She knew that Ji Rufan's heart was dozens of times more painful than the physical injury she was suffering now.She was just a bystander, and she already felt that such an experience was shocking, let alone a witness!

"No, I can't, I really can't hold it anymore." Ji Rufan began to cry, his eyes were still closed tightly, but tears were already seeping from the corners of his eyes.

She shook her head, her contradictory emotions made her vacillate, she wanted to get out of this nightmare situation as soon as possible, but she couldn't help but want to recall more useful fragments.Seeing the appearance of his beloved like this, Chu Zhiyao couldn't bear it anymore, and pulled her into his arms with all his strength.

With a soft body and slight convulsions, Ji Rufan finally sobbed and cried after falling into that embrace.Every time, when she felt tired and vulnerable, it was always this embrace that she could rely on, and it was always in front of Chu Zhiyao that she could cry.She didn't know whether she had become more vulnerable or more real.

But Ji Rufan knew that in front of Chu Zhiyao and in Chu Zhiyao's arms, she could do whatever she wanted.

"Princess, stop remembering, wake up quickly. I'm Chu Zhiyao, and I'm by your side." Chu Zhiyao whispered softly and repeatedly in Ji Rufan's ear, slowly stroking Ji Rufan's cheek with his hands rhythmically. spine.

Without any other emotions or thoughts, Chu Zhiyao only felt distressed.Ji Rufan didn't describe all the unbearable details, maybe subconsciously Ji Rufan has blocked the most cruel scene and completely erased it from his heart.But Chu Zhiyao still couldn't bear it, and couldn't bear to let the princess suffer any more torture and blows.She held Ji Rufan tightly in her arms, but secretly swore in her heart that she must get rid of Yuan Yiheng as soon as possible, and never let her princess suffer again!

My mood gradually calmed down, and my thoughts gradually recovered.However, Ji Rufan did not immediately struggle to get up from Chu Zhiyao's arms like before.Instead, like a lazy kitten, it changed its position and rested its side face on her arm.

"Princess, are you feeling better?" Chu Zhiyao looked down at the person in his arms, his eyes were full of concern and tenderness.

"Well, it's much better." The tears on Ji Rufan's face were almost dry, but she still didn't want to open her eyes, enjoying the rare comfort.

Chu Zhiyao reached out and gently wiped the tears off Ji Rufan's face, along the corners of her eyes, all the way down, all traces of sadness disappeared after her fingers passed by.Ji Rufan closed his eyes, enjoying Chu Zhiyao's delicate and silent service, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Chu Zhiyao felt that the princess looked so beautiful, no matter what time it was, she was so beautiful that she couldn't take her eyes off her.In the past, she thought that shopkeeper Fan was good-looking, but she was not as excited as she is now.Maybe it's because after falling in love with someone, the other's every move will affect people's hearts, making it even more difficult to control.

Chu Zhiyao couldn't help but leaned down, and brought his lips close to where his fingers passed.Ji Rufan felt her movement, but didn't stop it.When Chu Zhiyao's breath approached slowly, Ji Rufan's heart suddenly felt tense.

It's an unguarded nervousness, a nervousness that's only caused by extreme excitement.Ji Rufan actually had a strong and inexplicable expectation in his heart, and even wanted to open his eyes and take a look at Chu Zhiyao.However, her long-standing reserve made her feel embarrassed to meet the other party's eyes at such a distance.

In the past, when she was acting every time, she could even handle scenes like a cave, but now, she didn't even have the courage to open her eyes.Just as Ji Rufan's thoughts were running around like this, Chu Zhiyao suddenly kissed her.
