Red Robe

Seeing her put down the pen, she said meaningfully: "Is this the end of the question, Your Highness?"

"Otherwise, what else do you need to ask?" Li Qingning said lightly.

Xian Yu smiled, always felt that it was unreasonable for this person to spend a lot of time to get him here, and not to ask more questions, but this was exactly in line with Li Qingning's indifferent temperament.

"Your Highness didn't ask me why I left without saying goodbye?" She said slowly.

Li Qing glanced at her, "Why?"

"I can't tell you." Xian Yu had a lot of meaning.

Seeing this, Li Qingning only frowned slightly, but stopped asking questions.

Xian Yu saw that she didn't ask, so he said: "This seat is so uncooperative in questioning, shouldn't His Highness torture you for questioning?"

Li Qingning's forehead twitched, "Isn't it enough to put you in chains?"

Xian Yu smiled, slightly raised his right leg and folded it on top of his left knee, and the black iron chain tied to his right ankle was pulled tighter.

She lowered her eyes and slowly moved her eyes along the chain, only to see that the other end of the chain was tied to the leg of the chair where Li Qingning was sitting.

When she lifted her leg, the chain attached to the ground rustled immediately.

Li Qingning pursed her lips and said nothing.

Xian Yu bent down and pinched the iron buckle on his ankle with two fingers.

Li Qingning still didn't look sideways.

Xian Yu pinched it inch by inch along the cold iron chain, and with only a little force, the length of chain on the iron buckle fell to the ground with a bang.

It was broken, but the part wrapped around the ankle bone was still tightly wound, but it didn't need to be pulled.

Li Qingning frowned slightly, "You are despising Huangwei."

"No," Xian Yu said meaningfully: "I just feel that His Highness is too selfish, and he is clearly doing the public good for personal gain."

Li Qingning's slender eyelashes trembled slightly, and the light in her eyes suddenly moved.

She sat far away, only the dim light of the fire shone through, and her face was vaguely gloomy.

Seeing her sitting upright, Xian Yu suddenly became playful, and deliberately lifted up a corner of her lower skirt, exposing her ankles which were still wrapped in iron chains.

There was a circle of iron chains on his thin ankles, like a plaything of a rich family, but this person's expression was not very obedient, and his lower jaw was slightly raised, showing arrogance and arrogance.

"I don't know when the Ministry of Punishment will have the rule of covering the suspect with a black cloth." Xian Yu spoke slowly, seemingly very casually.

Li Qingning's slightly pursed lips moved, and she said after a while: "The rules just established."

"Then will there be such a rule tomorrow?" Xian Yu asked very seriously.

"No." Li Qingning said concisely.

Hearing this, Xian Yu smiled, with the corners of his lips raised slightly, with an appearance of malicious intentions, he didn't look like a prisoner at all, but sat very comfortably and leisurely in this torture room.

She said again: "Your Highness really wants to do something out of the ordinary while I'm blindfolded."

As soon as the words fell, Li Qingning frowned, "It's nonsense."

"Is it just nonsense, Your Highness knows it well." Xian Yu said carefully, "This is what the guards should do to put anklets on the suspects, but the dignified eldest princess condescended to bend down. When the two saw it, they also I don’t know how to arrange the eldest princess when I go out.”

"Those two guards belong to my palace." Li Qingning said flatly.

"Then His Highness admits that His Highness put on the ankle chain himself, and his intentions are really unpredictable, and he is still unwilling to give it to others." Xian Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, and locked the eyes of the person sitting upright in the distance.

Li Qingning was silent for a long time before saying, "Not bad."

The man in red laughed more wildly, and his already soft and beautiful face became more radiant, "Your Highness just said to discuss the matter of accommodating, then it is possible to be accommodating, and I don't know how to bribe His Highness."

These words concealed a deep meaning, and the words "accommodation" and "bribery" were word for word, clearly implying something.

The heart under Li Qingning's chest jumped violently, and her fingertips also trembled slightly.

The torture room suddenly fell silent again, and the outside of the room was also very quiet, not even the slightest sound.

After a long time, Li Qingning moved her dry lips and said: "No need to bribe, I have always been magnanimous."

Hearing this, Xian Yu was on the verge of gnashing her teeth, but she didn't want Li Qingning to be so generous.

"But the villain doesn't want to owe His Highness." She said slowly.

"You have never owed me." Li Qingning said in a daze.

Indeed, Xian Yu never owed her anything, but she owed this person a lot.

"Then His Highness should punish the villain, otherwise the villain will feel bad." Xian Yu said in a muffled voice.

Li Qingning's forehead twitched, and she didn't know why the words went back and forth.

She frowned and said, "Don't even think about it."

Xian Yu took a deep breath, "It doesn't take much effort."

After a pause, she then said tentatively: "For example, lock me up in a small dark and lightless house, so that I can't go anywhere, so that I can't see anyone other than Your Highness, so I have to beg His Highness to treat you every day." I'm better."

Li Qingning: ...

In the dark torture chamber, His Highness Xuanyi's complexion was very complicated.

Xian Yu cautiously said again: "If not, an offense that is still on credit will not count, the villain will let His Highness offend you back?"

Li Qingning choked up, seeing the beauty in red in the distance was delicate and weak, and her cautious and careful appearance appeared docile and soft for a moment.

She made a strange mistake, and felt that it was inappropriate and inappropriate to talk about private matters in this torture room, her vermilion lips moved slightly, and she said, "We'll talk about it when we go back."

"Huiyang Ning Palace?" Xian Yu rolled his eyes.

"I have a residence in the west of the city." Li Qingning said.

Xian Yu suddenly realized: "His Royal Highness is very scheming, so he planned to trap the villain in the dark and dim hut long ago, but he still asked the villain to beg, so it seems that His Highness is very noble and decent, and it is also reasonable .”

Li Qingning: ...

She really never thought about it that way.

Revisiting the many words this person said just now, the sudden self-effacement is really artificial and flattering, clearly pretending to lure him into a pit.

"The villain is King Fengxian's counselor, so he disappeared for no reason. If the Ministry of Punishment asks about it, how should His Highness explain it?" Xian Yu asked.

Li Qingning said lightly: "You don't need to worry."

While King Fengxian and others were still being interrogated, the eldest princess' carriage rumbled away.

There were three people sitting in the car, but through the window lattice, they could only see the unattainable eldest princess and her personal maid.

Fang Xin sat aside and didn't dare to move, didn't even dare to swallow her saliva.

Li Qingning didn't move, but it was because her leg was being pressed.

Under the thin blanket covering her legs, the slightly raised little bag never moved.

Perhaps the person under the thin blanket was too thin and frail, but when the embroidered tapestry was covered on Li Qingning's legs, it was impossible to see that there was another person lying underneath.

Li Qingning pursed her lips and restrained her breath deliberately, but her mood was very messy.

This perverted person is now quietly lying on her lap, with his face still pressed against her leg, and his hand gently resting on her kneecap, that hand is as soft as boneless, as if very weak.

I don't know whether the eyes of the people under the thin blanket are open or not, and whether they are also confused like her.

Thinking about it this way, the breathing that had been adjusted with great difficulty became chaotic again, and he had to calm down the chaotic heartbeat again.

Her back was very straight, and because she was holding her breath, her face looked very indifferent, even a little colder than usual, and she didn't even want to pretend to be demure.

Fang Xin was sitting aside cautiously, when she turned her head, she happened to see Li Qing's side face which was as cold as ice.

She slowly took a breath, and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, but there is something bothering you again."

Li Qingning only glanced at her from the side, and didn't speak, not because she didn't want to speak, but because her mouth was so dry that her throat was tight, and it was difficult to make out the words for a while.

On the way to the house in the west of the city, she didn't look sideways all the way, and she didn't even lower her eyes, lest she would be upset when she saw the slightly raised thin blanket on her lap.

In fact, annoying is not too annoying, but chaos is really chaos.

For the time being, she still wants to be a person, and she must not do something too outrageous. Anyway, the person has been robbed back, so how can the meat in her mouth be able to fly?

When she got to the house, she breathed a sigh of relief, and lifted the thin blanket with her face unchanged, wanting to see what crooked plans this person who was lying quietly all the way was thinking.

The thin blanket was lifted, and the person lying underneath was immediately exposed. The vermilion collar was a little disheveled, the long black hair was all hanging down to one side, and the plain white neck was half exposed, the neck was thin and white.

Unexpectedly, she was so distracted that she was almost infatuated, and the instigator was——

Fell asleep.

Fang Xin said cautiously: "Your Highness, do you want to wake up the fairy?"

As soon as she asked, she suddenly felt that she was talking too much.

Chapter 54

Ministry of Punishment.

King Fengxian sat on the hard and cold wooden chair with his eyes downcast, his face reflected by the firelight was unpredictable, while the other half of his face in the shadow was almost dark.

"Your Majesty, do you know what crime it is to secretly collude with foreign countries?" Lord Lin from the Ministry of Punishment said sternly.

King Fengxian said slowly: "My lord, I have learned from you, this king has never colluded with foreign countries."

"The trade route from Dongzhou to Tuona Kingdom has been open for three years. Envoys must pass through Fengxian City every time they arrive in Dongzhou. How dare the prince say that he has never met an envoy from Tuona Kingdom in private?" Master Lin asked again.

"No, if there is no order from His Majesty, how dare Fengxian City receive foreign envoys privately." King Fengxian did not hesitate.

Lord Lin nodded slightly, "Your Highness is honest."

"It's all nonsense, so there's nothing to hide." King Fengxian said.

"Then before and after the Qianqiu Banquet, the fact that the lord met with the third prince in private is nothing but fiction?" Lord Lin's face was stern.

King Fengxian's eyes moved, and his lips were pursed together, "This is indeed the case."

"I don't know what the third prince is talking about with the prince." Lord Lin asked again.

As soon as these words came out, King Feng Xian's breath stagnated, and he slightly curled up his hands on his knees, only then did he realize that the third prince must have escaped a catastrophe.

His eyes were gloomy, his right index finger was slightly raised, and then dropped heavily.

"During the third prince's first birthday ceremony, this king also entered the palace to see it. After that, every time he entered the palace, he would bring some local products from Fengxian City. It was like this in the past, and it is still the same now. In a short time, the third prince will have his hair tied. But the friendship with this king has not changed." King Fengxian said carefully.

He paused, "In the past, His Majesty never asked about it, but now His Excellency has started to investigate it instead."

"Don't dare to pursue it." Master Lin said slowly: "It's just that there are some things that must be clarified."

"That's natural." King Fengxian looked down, but his eyes didn't seem to gather.

"My lord knows that the third prince once sentenced Mr. Xiao on behalf of the minister of the temple." Only then did Mr. Lin ask about this matter.

King Fengxian pursed his lips, his pupils trembled imperceptibly, and it only trembled for a moment before returning to normal.He raised his lowered eyes and looked at Master Lin without any waves in his eyes.

However, Master Lin did not change his face, and there was no expression on his face, which made it difficult to understand his thoughts.

King Feng Xian was silent for a long time before he said: "Before the Qianqiu Banquet, on the day I first entered the palace, the third prince mentioned a few words, but I didn't ask any more questions, I only know that this case was indeed judged by him."

"My lord means that when this case is still under investigation, my lord doesn't know about it." Master Lin asked.

"That's right," King Fengxian's thin lips moved, and a deep voice escaped from it, "This king has never had an official position in the court, and maybe he hasn't paid homage to His Majesty for a long time. Besides, there have been many affairs in Fengxian City recently, and Fengxian City is far from here. The capital city is very far away, and the news is very closed, and the Lord Xiao's case is still under investigation, and this king really doesn't know about it."

Master Lin picked up the next line of Langhao's book, raised his eyes and asked again: "Every word of the prince is recorded by the official, I hope the prince will speak carefully."

"Every word in this king's words is true." King Fengxian said without changing his expression.

"It's so good." Lord Lin said slowly.

"May I ask Lord Lin, what did the Third Prince do that shouldn't be done?" King Fengxian asked slowly.

"Your Majesty, you must remember that you were brought back by the Imperial Army sent by His Majesty. Now that you are in the Ministry of Punishment, don't ask more questions than you should." Lin Daren said seriously.

King Feng Xian's expression changed slightly, "It's overstepping."

Master Lin lowered his eyes to write down a line of words again, and from the corner of his eye, he saw the people in the distance clenched their index fingers, and he said: "If the prince is really innocent, His Majesty will definitely give him an explanation."

"Your Majesty has always been fair." King Feng Xian moved his lips.

The fire in the house gradually dimmed, and the raging flames in the charcoal basin became smaller and smaller.

After a long time, King Fengxian said: "This king has answered the truth this time. I don't know where the servants and maidservants who are traveling with this king are."

Master Lin said: "Trial elsewhere."

King Feng Xian guessed that this matter was definitely not Li Zaiyu's impromptu idea, it must be that something happened to the third prince, maybe someone still reported the secret in front of His Majesty.

His forehead twitched, and after drooping his brows and eyes, his expression was very gloomy, but when Lord Lin passed by, he restrained the hostility in his eyes.

After a while, he asked: "There is a monk in red who is traveling with me. I wonder if he will be tried."

Lord Lin put down the wolf hair in his hand, "Of course there will be a trial, but..."

His voice paused, "I'm afraid the prince has already noticed that not everyone around the prince loves the prince."

King Fengxian's breathing was stagnant, and the veins on his forehead were almost bulging, but he pursed his lips and remained silent.

"If it weren't for this, His Majesty would not have doubts about the prince." Lord Lin said again.

"I don't know, who is that person, and who sent him here." King Fengxian asked word by word.

"My lord asked more questions." Master Lin spoke slowly.

King Fengxian took a deep breath slowly, his heart was beating wildly, although he couldn't confirm it, he could roughly guess it.

"So, if you dare to ask my lord, can I leave?" He frowned.

Lord Lin raised his eyes, "There are still doubts about this matter. His Majesty has sent people to King Fengxian. During this period, I am afraid that the prince will be wronged."

Hearing this, King Fengxian's eyes almost went dark.

Here, a group of maidservants and retainers of King Fengxian, together with his master, were taken to the prison.

All the people were separated and imprisoned. On the way to the prison, King Feng Xian met one of his subordinates.

Although he had already guessed that this would be the case, when he couldn't find the vermilion figure in the crowd, King Fengxian still took a deep breath and almost gritted his white teeth.

It really is her.

I never thought that this person could hide it so well!

King Fengxian is not stupid, he has checked Feng Xianyu beforehand, but apart from a girl with the same name, there is no other person with the same name in the Ceasefire Palace, and this man in red seems to have appeared out of nowhere generally.

When talking with the maid in the Ceasefire Palace, he tried to test his words, but no one knew the details of the man in red.He also asked that when the eldest princess came, she had never seen the man in red.

Although he had doubts, but the people who came to Ceasefire Palace were so treacherous, King Fengxian still took the risk.

Unexpected, really unexpected, no wonder the scheming man in red and Li Qingning were flirting secretly!

Sure enough, there was a nest of snakes and mice, and the two had known each other for a long time, but they pretended to be very unfamiliar in front of him.

I can't believe it, I have to get rid of it, and even his cold and vicious imperial niece, I have to get rid of it too.

And the person who said "unfamiliar" in front of King Fengxian during the day is now in the carriage in front of a certain house in the west of the city, and he still doesn't know that he has been regarded by King Fengxian as a spy with Li Qingning's nest.

She fell asleep in the carriage, not only fell asleep, but also slept on the eldest princess's legs, sleeping very peacefully.

Fang Xin shut her mouth tightly when she asked, and secretly looked at Li Qingning's expression, seeing Li Qingning sitting motionless, she took a breath slowly, and said vigorously, "The servant girl got out of the carriage first."

The voice was very low, afraid of disturbing the person who was lying on Li Qingning's lap.

Li Qingning nodded slightly, looked at her sideways, "Go and make the bedding."

Fang Xin hesitated for a moment, "Do you want one bed or two for the thin quilt?"

In one bed, two people sleep with their feet together, and in two beds, each has its own cover, which is very warm.

"Of course it's a bed." Li Qingning didn't think too much about it, she just felt that this question was superfluous.

Fang Xin swallowed secretly, her eyes rolled and turned, as if she couldn't settle down.

She has stayed by Li Qingning's side for so many years, she has never seen any big storms, how can she panic because of this hour.

Don't panic.

Fang Xin quickly responded, and then asked cautiously: "Then will your Highness return to the palace tonight?"

"Of course I have to go back." Li Qingning said: "There must be no mistakes at this time."

Fang's heart was almost moved to tears, her master is really such a loving person, time is so tight, he still wants to have some tenderness with the girl, it is truly earth-shattering.

She wiped her eyes, lowered her body slightly as a salute, turned around and entered the yard, not daring to leave the matter of laying the mattress to other maidservants, thinking that this matter must be done by herself.

However, the two people in the carriage had no intention of entering the house at all, and the brown horse that was harnessed to the carriage flicked its tail, looking bored.

Fortunately, this house is located next to the old bridge in the west of the city where few people pass by. Even if someone passes by, they may not recognize that the princess sitting in the carriage is the eldest princess of the dynasty.

Li Qingning didn't move, not because he didn't know how to wake up this person, but because he didn't want to speak.

She is also a practitioner, so she naturally knows that monks are usually full of energy and vitality, no matter how tired they are, they can recover after a short meditation.

But now the person on the lap is sleeping very deeply, it is obvious that the time has passed, it must be so sleepy.

I remembered that when this person was still a child, his body was very weak, and he couldn't even walk steadily, as if he would fall when the wind blows, worse than a weak willow.

Looking at her now, she doesn't have to pant for breath after walking a few steps like before, but her body is still thin and thin. Even at this level of cultivation, her breath is still very weak, and she looks soft and soft.

Thinking about it, she must have been holding on for a while, but now she finally couldn't stand it anymore.

Li Qingning couldn't stand it anymore, but it wasn't because her legs were numb from the pillow, but because the person lying on her legs moved slightly.

"Are you awake?" She pretended to be calm.

But the person on the lap didn't open his eyes.

"What are you pretending to be?" Li Qingning said again.

Xian Yu still didn't open her eyes.

Li Qingning: ...

She suppressed the throbbing in her heart, and said slowly: "I saved you from the fire and water, is this how you repay me?"

It was said that the pretending person on the lap opened his eyes like this, his eyes were misty and sleepy, and the eyes were as soft as water, as if they were condensed with tears.

Li Qingning was stunned for a moment, feeling a little surprised.

But in just a moment, Xian Yu restrained the expression in his eyes, and his words were not gentle at all, and he said, "Your Highness forgot, you are also in control of this fire and water."

"How did you guess that it was Bengong who did it?" Li Qingning said.

Xian Yu smiled, "Apart from Your Highness, only King Feng Xian and the Third Prince know about the account books. Naturally, King Feng Xian doesn't want to harm the Third Prince, and the Third Prince doesn't have the guts to confess in front of His Majesty. If you think so, you will do this Only you, Your Highness."

She took a nap for a while, her throat seemed to have not been fully opened, and her voice was very waxy for a while.

Li Qingning was silent for a while, "Do you know how this palace brought you out of the Ministry of Punishment in a legitimate way?"

Xian Yu really couldn't figure it out, but she was full of embarrassing things, she thought for a while and said: "If you think about it, Your Highness will definitely not make me bear a bad name with King Feng Xian, after all, His Highness has always done things. It's safe, maybe His Highness's evil fire suddenly flared up, and he wanted to rob people's daughters by force?"

Li Qingning kept her mouth shut.

Xian Yu smiled, "If your Highness doesn't answer, then you will admit it."

"Stop talking nonsense." Li Qingning's ears warmed up, and she reprimanded in a cold voice.

Only then did Xian Yu straighten up slowly, smooth out the messy hair on the pillow, and straighten his clothes.

Noticing that the person beside her was not secretly looking at her, a trace of gloom appeared in her eyes.

Just now Li Qingning saw that the tears in her eyes were not an illusion, she really almost shed tears.

When her consciousness was still vague, she vaguely heard Li Qingning's voice, but she couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream for a while, and she was still a little dazed when she opened her eyes.

Unlike Li Qingning, she hadn't dreamed about her past life for a long time, and after being reborn and returned for so long, she had only dreamed about it a few times.

Almost every time it was the scene when Li Qingning ordered her to leave, and the scene she saw when she broke into the water prison later.

Does Li Qingning have a heart? After she died, she wandered for a long time. Before she was dragged into this world by an invisible force, she roughly figured out that she should have a heart.

It's just that Li Qingning never showed her her heart in her previous life, and she refused to show her heart until she died.

The water prison was rotten and damp, and there were a lot of snake leeches in the water, crawling around in the water, just looking at it made people feel so disgusting that they almost retched.

She stood alone outside the iron prison, and the water that overflowed to the ground wet her embroidered shoes, but she couldn't even lift her legs.

In the dream, she just stood there, calling Li Qingning's name over and over again, but no one responded, only her voice echoed in the water prison.

She split open the rust-red iron door with one palm, gritted her teeth and slapped the water surface, countless leeches were shaken up along with the water.

But that person was nowhere to be seen.

She was heartbroken, and just as she was about to jump into the water, she heard Li Qingning's voice, and she woke up from her dream.

In the carriage, Li Qingning moved her vermilion lips and said: "During this period, you will live in this house."

Xian Yu looked back at her, and asked in a low voice, "Is there a dark room?"

Li Qingning's forehead twitched, "Nothing."

"Is there any more chains, one was broken by me just now." Xian Yu asked again.

"Don't push yourself too hard." Li Qingning said slowly.

Xian Yu raised the corners of her lips, and stared at the person in front of her eyes without blinking, and then felt that the heartache suffered in the dream just now was a little better, "This seat is not trying to make progress, this seat is trying to do something for His Highness." ruler, so that His Highness can advance a few more inches."

Li Qingning was silent for a long while, and squeezed out the words from between her lips and teeth, "Go down."

Xian Yu just got out of the carriage, and before going down, she covered her head with the blanket that Li Qingning had just covered her legs, raised her jaw and said teasingly: "You have to cover your head, after all, His Highness wants to hide in a golden house, don't let others Look."

Li Qingning couldn't help closing her eyes and calmed down.

The house is not very wide, but it is enough to accommodate one family. Although it is much worse than the imperial palace, it is comparable to Li Qingning's small courtyard on Weifeng Island.

Xian Yu walked in with her head wrapped around her head, and pulled off the thin blanket covering her head only after reaching the threshold.

She was suddenly happy, as if she was covered with a hijab, but the hijab was torn off by herself.

Seeing Fangxin standing by the door on one side and bending slightly, she turned her shoes and walked over.

Fang Xin quickly lowered her head, "Fairy, please."

Xian Yu nodded slightly, and saw that the red mattress on the bed in the house was even redder than the bed made by other people's family when they got married.

She paused, suddenly not knowing whether this was Li Qingning's main idea or Fang Xin's idea.

The mattress is red, and even the gauze on the top is also red. Looking around, it is very festive.

Li Qingning then entered the house, Fang Xin closed the door very cleverly, and sent away everyone nearby.

The door creaked shut, and Li Qingning also paused.

All of a sudden, my heart was full of mixed feelings, and I couldn't help but close my eyes again, I really didn't want to take another look.

"It turns out that His Highness has been prepared for a long time." The man in red said unhurriedly.

Li Qingning didn't know what to say, so she pursed her lips and remained silent.

Xian Yu immediately turned around, only to see that the moment she turned around, the man in black immediately avoided his gaze.

It is obvious that there is a ghost in his heart, otherwise why would he hide from her!

The red mattress and red gauze curtains are all ready, and she is hiding from her!

"Now that things are going on, how dare Your Highness say that you don't want to continue your relationship with me?" She narrowed her eyes slightly and asked slowly.

Li Qingning's eyes moved again, her red lips parted slightly, and she took a slow breath.

Xian Yu smiled, and didn't approach any further. Instead, she took a few steps back and pressed her back against the edge of the table. She stretched her arms back and said meaningfully: "If your Highness is not more honest, I will leave again. This time, I didn't go away in a carriage."

"You—" Li Qingning frowned.

"Anyway, I have nothing to worry about, and I am very comfortable." Xian Yu said again.

Li Qingning only felt that her heart seemed to be entangled in a mess, binding her hands and feet, her fingertips were slightly numb, and the thoughts that had been hidden and kept hidden were hooked into sharp corners.

With just one sharp horn, she almost couldn't hold back the chills all over her body.

"Is that why you want to be beaten so much?" Li Qingning said slowly.

The corner of Xian Yu's lips curled up, "I don't really think about it."

Li Qingning's eyes dimmed, she took a few steps forward and stopped in front of Xianyu.

Xian Yu leaned back a little more, knocking his back against the edge of the table, and there was nowhere to retreat.

She raised her head and said, "Your Highness, have you figured out where to fight?"

The voice was very soft, and between the opening and closing of the white teeth, a thin pink tongue could be seen faintly.

Li Qingning looked down at her, her eyes slowly fell from those peach-like eyes, and slid to those pale lips.

The man raised his head, clearly asking for a kiss, she thought to herself.

Thinking of this, she slightly opened her red lips, and leaned towards the person who raised her head.

Seeing Li Qingning leaning over, Xian Yu slowly closed her eyes, but unexpectedly her jaw didn't touch her lips, but her jaw suddenly hurt.

Never thought that Li Qingning not only wanted to move her mouth, but also moved her upper teeth.

The lower jaw is not very soft, and the white teeth are not very hard to bite.

One touch away.

Li Qingning straightened up and took half a step back, closed her eyes for a moment, then opened them and turned around.

Xian Yu held her chin in the room, watching the person who gnawed her almost fleeing out of the door.

The horse that had stopped for a while at the gate of the house had no choice but to drag the cart and run again, heading in the direction of the palace gate.

The horseshoes sounded loudly, and they ran very hastily.

An hour later, in Yangning Palace.

After Fangxin cleaned the vase, she turned her head and saw Li Qingning was still sitting upright, with a very thin waist and slightly thinner shoulders, but it made people dare not offend.

Li Qingning held the wolf hair in her hand, and was copying the book stroke by stroke.

"Why does Your Highness copy the Heart Sutra?" It was the first time Fang Xin saw her Highness copying the book by herself, and she was usually the one who copied the book.

"Self-examination." Li Qingning said calmly.

Chapter 55

55

Did the eldest princess reflect on herself today?

Introspected.

Fang Xin finished wiping the vases, tables and chairs, and lightly put all the porcelain and gold vases back to their original places. Looking back, she saw that the eldest princess was still sitting with her back straight, and the wolf hair in her hand never stopped.

"Research ink." Li Qingning said.

"Yes." Fang Xin walked over, added some water to the inkstone, stood up the ink ingot and began to polish it.

She rubbed the ink, looked sideways at the paper that Li Qingning was pressing down, and saw that each word was neatly written on the paper.

After reading His Highness's handwriting, she glanced at the properly placed Heart Sutra on the corner of the desk, and she could tell that His Highness had copied it wrong with just one glance.

After all, she is also a person who is good at copying books, and she only needs one glance to see that Li Qingning has copied the words in the left column and the right column backwards. wrong.

Strange, really strange.

Fang Xin carefully withdrew her gaze, and resisted not opening her mouth.

After all, His Royal Highness is a little stubborn. When she copied a word, she was reprimanded to re-copy every word she made. If His Highness made a wrong page, she would have to re-copy it ten times.

Naturally, Fangxin was not willing to let His Royal Highness tire her hands, so she had no choice but to pretend not to know.

Li Qingning copied it, but her heart couldn't calm down at all. After copying this page of the Heart Sutra, she still felt that the tangle in her heart was getting tighter and tighter, as if it was going to strangle her out of breath.

Her hands and feet seemed to be bound, so that she couldn't even turn her eyes freely, and the depth of her throat seemed to be choked, making her whole body uncomfortable.

She knew in her heart that she must never have such nasty thoughts again, but after a sharp corner of this thought popped up in her heart, she seemed unable to hide it anymore.

That sharp corner pierced the barrier she had erected, and the bottom of the barrier was her deepest desire.

All these years she had pretended to be neither fighting nor grabbing, but it wasn't that she didn't want anything, but now, the disguise was torn apart by that man's frown and smile.

Her coldness and desire are like a scourge, wanting to occupy her heart inside and out.

When my mind was in a state of confusion, I didn't know what I was writing, my eyes were turning back and forth between the scriptures and the paper under my hands, and I was copying with my hands holding the wolf hair, but none of the words I wrote were careless.

"Your Highness, do you want to take a rest?" Fangxin asked in a low voice after finishing her work.

"No need." Li Qingning said flatly.

Fang hesitated to speak, but finally pressed her lips together, thinking, if she doesn't stop, she will copy another wrong page.

That's all, the master loves it.

Li Qingning raised her chin and closed her eyes tightly, but after closing her eyes, the scenes in the mansion in the west of the city just now became clearer.

How did that man look at her arrogantly with his chin raised, as if he estimated that she would not dare to do something out of line, his eyes were bright, but he seemed to be provocative, and she couldn't help but step forward a few steps.

Perhaps it was due to her poor health, Xian Yu's lips were surprisingly pale compared to the red dress, but in this way, the slightly exposed tip of her tongue became even pinker.

Those lips opened and closed, as if tempting someone to find out.

Li Qingning couldn't help but leaned forward involuntarily, but at the moment when her breath was almost intertwined, she suddenly saw success in the opponent's eyes.

It was only then that she came to her senses that she had almost done something wrong.

But at this juncture, if she retreated, it would appear that she had no guts, so she turned her head slightly, and set her teeth on the other's plain chin.

The teeth fell out and I felt that this person was too thin.

He exerted a little bit of strength, intending to punish him a little, and only took a bite before retreating.

When she stepped back, her gaze was still on that sharp chin, on which a tooth mark was very distinct.

As expected, her body was delicate and soft, even her skin was so fragile that she couldn't stand it, she only exerted a little strength, and her plain white jaw turned red.

The bitten person subconsciously raised his hand to cover his chin, and stared at her with water-soaked eyes, unable to say any joking words for a while.

Very good, a little punishment is really useful.

Only then did Li Qingning shake her sleeves and leave, and as soon as she got out, she called her heart, and went back to the palace without saying a word.

It's not that he ran away, but he felt that if he stayed for a moment, it would not be as simple as moving his teeth.

"Laying out paper." Li Qingning came back to her senses, saw that the jade tablet in front of her was full again, and said, "Let's put it away after it's written."

Fang Xin nodded slightly, carefully picked up the ink-stained rice paper in front of her, and put it outside to dry.

Li Qingning copied it again, her intuition was wrong, and her forehead twitched, only to realize that she had copied it wrong from beginning to end.

Forget it, she stood up and opened the door to go out, and said to Fangxin who was still drying the paper in the yard: "There is no need to dry it."

Fang Xin turned around in surprise, "The ink is not dry yet, so I can't collect it at this time."

"There is no need to accept it." Li Qingning said lightly.

Fang Xin took a deep breath and carefully looked at her expression.

Li Qingning moved her lips, "Tear it off."

It's a good one torn up, I'm afraid I realized that I copied it wrong.

Fang Xin could only follow suit, but looking at the jade plate paper, she was really reluctant to use it. It would be a pity to tear such a good paper.

Li Qingning said again: "Forget it, let's go to Yuanzheng Hall first."

After counting the time, the trial of all the members of Fengxian Palace should have been completed, but they don't know where they will be placed.

Li Zaiyu is seriously ill now, and he will be frightened whenever there is a turmoil. King Feng Xian showed his feet at this time, just touching Li Zaiyu's bad luck, and he is afraid that he will be severely punished.

The emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people, let alone a mere Feng Xian Wang.

It's just that King Fengxian is Li Zaiyu's uncle at any rate, and in view of his seniority, Li Zaiyu should still give him some face.

Li Qingning frowned and thought for a long time, and when she arrived at Yuanzheng Hall, she suppressed the coldness in her eyes, walked forward slowly, and let the eunuch standing outside the door go in to report.

The eunuch gently opened the door and invited Li Qingning in.

Unexpectedly, after entering the Yuanzheng Hall, not only Master Lin and Dali Siqing were in the hall, but even the Second Prince Li Wuyin was there.

Li Qingning paused, but still walked in, bowed slightly and saluted.

Li Zaiyu raised his eyes, with a gloomy look in his brows, "Thanks to the reminder from the imperial sister."

"Sister Chen only feels doubts in her heart, Master Xiao is so upright
