Xiao Jining didn't know why he was sad.

Obviously he shouldn't be sad, Jingyuan has someone he likes, which is a good thing for Jingyuan...

But the sudden sourness in his eyes was too obvious, and Xiao Jining couldn't ignore the discomfort. In addition, his chest and throat seemed to be blocked by something, so stuffy that he couldn't breathe. The sight suddenly became a little blurry, Xiao Jining blinked his eyes to make the scene in front of him clear, and only then did he understand - it turned out that a layer of tears had just formed in his eyes.

"That's it...that's pretty good." Xiao Jining turned his back not to look at Jing Yuan, trying to keep his voice from trembling, but he himself didn't know how aggrieved and against his will he was speaking at this moment. Also full of sourness.

Xiao Jining didn't know that at that moment, Jing Yuan looked at his back, and there was a moment of tears in his eyes.

Because Jing Yuan suddenly discovered that the person he liked might also like him, but the boy hadn't noticed it yet.

So Jingyuan told him, "Not good."

Xiao Jining sniffed twice secretly to suppress the soreness in his heart, but he heard Jing Yuan say that.Xiao Jining was stunned, and subconsciously asked him: "What's wrong? That person... doesn't like you?"

"Maybe." Jingyuan's voice came from behind him, looking a little distant and lost, "I don't know if he likes me or not."

Xiao Jining immediately turned around when he heard the words, looked at him with wide eyes and said: "How can you not know this?"

"I don't understand either." Jing Yuan didn't look at Xiao Jining this time, he drooped his eyelashes, and his eyes seemed to be fixed on a certain place on the ground, "I thought I was obvious enough, I treat him very well, try my best every day I stayed with him and gave him the best I could give him, but he still didn’t understand anything.”

After listening to Jing Yuan's words, Xiao Jining became even more dazed.

Because the words that Tan Qingxuan and Ruan Jiaren said when he went to Qingzhi Palace to play chess with Tan Qingxuan suddenly appeared in his mind. Tan Qingxuan told him that she would find that she liked Ruan Jiaren because she saw Ruan Jiaren treat others Well she will be jealous.

Jealousy is a strange emotion. It usually only happens to a pair of enemies or two people who like each other.

Tan Qingxuan thought that she and Ruan Jiaren were mortal enemies, but she was not jealous that Ruan Jiaren had a better life than her, she only envied another person—the person Ruan Jiaren treated her well, so she suddenly realized that Ruan Jiaren was not her enemy, But someone she likes.

And what about him?

He and Jingyuan are not enemies, so why should he be jealous of the other person Jingyuan said, who treats him so well?Or to put it more clearly, he wasn't jealous that Jing Yuan was so kind to that person, but that he was jealous that Jing Yuan... liked him.

Xiao Jining didn't understand, and couldn't figure it out. Even though he already had a vague answer in his heart, he didn't dare to admit that answer, or even think about it, and didn't want it to appear in any corner of his mind.

Fortunately, it's easy to do.

Because what Xiao Jining wants to know more now is, what kind of person is that person who can be liked by Jing Yuan so much?Obviously Jingyuan stays by his side every day, so where does Jingyuan have other time to spend with others?

So Xiao Jining asked him: "The person you like, what kind of person is he..."

Jing Yuan snorted lightly, and said with a little helplessness: "He is timid, lazy, and often cheats on me. He knows nothing but food, and he married two wives."

Married two wives!

For a while, Xiao Jining didn't know whether he should be shocked that the person Jing Yuan liked was a man, or that he should be shocked that that person was not only a man, but also a married man.

But the most important thing is: "How could you fall in love with such a scumbag!"

Xiao Jining couldn't help saying this, even though he knew it was bad to say bad things about the person he liked in front of someone, but Xiao Jining still wanted to say: "He, doesn't he have any advantages? "

Jing Yuan raised his head when he heard the words, but he didn't look at Xiao Jining either, but after pondering for a while, he said: "Looking good? Is this an advantage?"

"You can't just look at someone's face when you like someone." Xiao Jining frowned, persuading Jing Yuan earnestly.

Jing Yuan hooked the corners of his lips and said with a smile: "Then what else should I watch?"

"Look at his heart, look at his character, temperament, whether he is worthy of your liking." Xiao Jining immediately reasoned with Jing Yuan, speaking clearly and logically, but he himself has never liked anyone before.

He still doesn't understand that when he really likes someone, he can even like his shortcomings.

Unexpectedly, after Xiao Jining said so many things, Jing Yuan finally turned his eyes to look at him, but he opened his lips, but what he said was full of obsession: "But I don't care about those."

"Because I now—" Jing Yuan took a step in Xiao Jining's direction, bent slightly, lowered his head to look deeply at the young man in front of him, and said softly, "I can only see his face."

On the evenings approaching midsummer, the moonlight is always clear and bright.

Coupled with the warm-colored palace lanterns in the hands of the palace people, it is enough to illuminate the pattern of every floor tile under Xiao Jining's feet.

Jingyuan said: The person he likes has only a good-looking face that can be called an advantage.But now, he only had that person's face in his eyes.

But now, Xiao Jining stared blankly at Jing Yuan, for the first time saw a faint light in his dark eyes, and also saw his own reflection.

No one knew what kind of silence Xiao Jining felt in his heart after Jing Yuan finished speaking, as if time was frozen at that moment, everything around him was still, only his heart was beating.

And the sound became louder and louder, setting off a shocking wave in his chest that no one knew about.

So Xiao Jining moved his lips, but did not make a sound.

The conscientious Mu Kui came forward at this moment, walked to Xiao Jining's side and persuaded: "Your Majesty, it's late at night, you should rest."

"I..." Xiao Jining suddenly came back to his senses, then immediately lowered his head, his eyes wandered randomly on the floor tiles, but he didn't dare to raise his head to meet Jing Yuan's eyes again.

Jing Yuan straightened his body with the sword at his waist, his black figure in the night looked majestic and majestic, like a deep shadow of Xiao Jining overwhelming the sky, but Xiao Jining was embraced in this darkness, but he didn't feel afraid, just feel quiet.

But the master of Deep Shadow took the initiative to break the silence, he said: "Tomorrow we have to go to court early, Your Majesty should hurry back and rest."

Xiao Jining raised his head when he heard the words, and really wanted to ask Jing Yuan—"Is that the person you like, me?"

But he didn't ask in the end.

They parted ways in the imperial garden, one headed towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation, while the other continued to patrol the palace.

After returning to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Xiao Jining sat on the bed and did not fall asleep for a long time.

He hugged his knees, sat on the bed and stared blankly at the brocade quilt embroidered with golden dragon patterns, the palace people had already blown out the lights and left, waiting outside the door, so he was the only one in the huge bedroom.

It's not that Xiao Jining never thought about discussing this issue with Xiaodan, but it's too late today, Xiaodan is not online, so he can't call.

Xiao Jining sat alone for a long time, he remembered every word Jingyuan said to him in the Royal Garden tonight, and Xiao Jining lived for decades in his previous life and this life, and he never felt that his memory was so good.

He slowly thought about all the words that Jing Yuan said to him word by word.But the thoughts in his mind were still chaotic. There were many unanswered questions in his heart, and he was a little scared and a little panicked.

But Xiao Jining couldn't deny that the joy and joy in his heart were real - he was happy at the guess that the person Jing Yuan liked might be him.

This proves that maybe he also likes Jingyuan.

However, Xiao Jining himself couldn't figure out why he fell in love with Jing Yuan.

Xiao Jining sat on the bed and thought about it for most of the night, but he couldn't come up with a perfect answer. He was neither sure whether the person Jing Yuan liked was him, nor how he fell in love with Jing Yuan. The green and black must be obvious because Moo-kyu asked him.

"Your Majesty, did you not sleep well last night?" Mu Kui frowned worriedly while serving Xiao Jining for breakfast, "Your complexion doesn't look very good."

Xiao Jining faltered and said: "Well... I can't sleep, but it's okay, I will take a nap when I come back after the next court."

Mu Kui was not suspicious: "Yes, Your Majesty."

But after leaving the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Xiao Jining remembered another thing: Chao Jingyuan would be there in the early morning.But he is not ready to meet Jing Yuan yet.

Thinking of meeting Jing Yuan in the morning, Xiao Jining panicked.

So when he went to court, he kept his eyes fixed on the civil servant, and he didn't dare to cast a glance at the military officer.

It wasn't until the next court when all the officials bowed to salute him that Xiao Jining dared to glance sideways at where Jing Yuan was standing.

As a result, with this glance, he met Jing Yuan's obviously smiling eyes - Jing Yuan didn't bow his head to salute at all, but stood straight and looked up at him presumptuously.

Xiao Jining opened his eyes wide at first, but when he saw Jing Yuan pulling his lips and smiling at him, his cheeks suddenly burned up, so embarrassing that he had to lower his head to avoid Jing Yuan's gaze, then got up and waved his sleeves, leaving behind a cry of "Back to court!" "After that, he left the Xuanzheng Hall.

Since ancient times, the rule in the early dynasty has always been that the monarch leaves first, and the courtiers can leave, but Xiao Jining didn't understand why he was the first to leave, but was stopped by Jing Yuan on the way to leave Xuanzheng Hall to Shoukang Palace to pay respects to the Queen Mother out of the way.

This person must have secretly climbed the wall relying on his high martial arts skills!

And Xiao Jining was sitting on the emperor's chariot, touching his hot cheek with one hand, surrounded by many palace people, but was stopped by Jing Yuan alone and had no way to go.

Xiao Jining resisted the desire to slip away, pursed his lips and pretended to be calm and asked Jing Yuan, "General Jing, what's the matter with you?"

"This minister is here to plead guilty to His Majesty." Jing Yuan said that he was here to plead guilty, but he stood upright, without any self-knowledge that a sinner should have.

So Xiao Jining felt that Jing Yuan's "crime" must not be that simple, and asked him, "What crime are you asking for?"

Jing Yuan looked straight at Xiao Jining, smiled and said: "Naturally, it is the crime of treason and immorality committed by a humble official."

The author has something to say: Eldest Princess: Tell me honestly, have you coveted the throne under the emperor's ass for a long time!

Jingyuan: No.

The eldest princess: You still don't admit it!

Jing Yuan: What I covet is the ass above the throne.
