"Li Zhu..."

These two words exploded like thunder above my head. I was stunned for a moment. Standing behind him, the blood in my body seemed to have suddenly stopped flowing, and my heartbeat had stopped.

The person in front of me is Nangong Lizhu!

This most beautiful woman in the celestial dynasty is always so beautiful. Even under the fireworks night in Yangzhou City and the whole city is in a panic, she still stands spotlessly among the chaotic crowd, as if she is on earth.

The fairies are not contaminated by any dust.

But at this time, she was not stained by any dust, but she was covered in injuries and blood!

I almost couldn't believe my eyes. Not only could I not believe that the person in front of me was really her, but I couldn't believe that she was covered in blood. Her dress, which was originally as white as snow, was stained with a lot of blood and mud.

, looking particularly embarrassed. There were some scratches on his perfectly flawless face, and there was a deep wound on his arm. Although he covered it with his hand, there was still blood flowing out from the gaps between his slender fingers.<

/p>

She was surrounded by everyone and leaned against a big tree. Her pale face slowly raised. When her water-cut eyes looked at Pei Yuanhao, she condensed slightly and then lowered her head.

I have never seen Nangong Lizhu like this.

I believe that Pei Yuanhao has never seen it.

His whole body was trembling. I had never seen him trembling like this. Even when he was fighting for the throne in the imperial city and facing thousands of troops fighting with blood and flesh, his face did not waver at all. But at this moment, his face was trembling.

It was as if my soul had been taken away all at once, and everything in front of me - the guards, Liu Zhaoyi, the panicked Eunuch Yu, and me who was stunned, were all invisible.

Nangong Lizhu was still leaning on the tree pole, her breath was weak, and she was so weak that she almost fell down, but she still stood there gritting her teeth, her pale lips like flowers, trembling slightly.

But he didn’t say a word.

Standing in front of her, there were vigilant guards with their swords unsheathed, Eunuch Yu who was confused by the sudden meeting, and Liu Zhaoyi and I who were silent, but in her eyes, she seemed to be unable to see anything.

To.

There is only one person.

The two people looked at each other like this. Although they were so close, they seemed farther away than they were across the sea of ​​people and the towering tower that night.

And that night, he desperately wanted to find the person in front of him, but now, the person was close at hand, but he just looked at it, just looking at it, although I saw that his fingertips were already pale in his sleeves.

, but still no action.

When the desire to get is extremely strong and is really close to you, you will shrink back and become afraid.

I'm afraid it's a dream, or I'm afraid I won't be able to catch it.

The two people just stared at each other without saying anything. Everyone around them seemed to feel something. In the huge forest, there was nothing except the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves.

I don’t know how long it took, but his face slowly calmed down, and his eyes seemed to be calm again.

As for Nangong Lizhu, her face became increasingly pale, but the corners of her delicate mouth were slightly raised.

An almost cold smile appeared on her face, but even so, it was absolutely beautiful.

My heart is getting heavier and heavier. Looking at his calm face, his hands hidden in his sleeves are clenched into fists, and veins are popping up on the back of his hands.

I looked down at his hand. I don’t know how long it had passed, but suddenly I gently stretched out my hand, subconsciously trying to grab something.

But at this moment, the sneer on Nangong Lizhu's lips suddenly disappeared, her eyes like autumn water condensed in an instant and lost their luster, and the whole person suddenly fell softly.

"Li Zhu!"

He rushed forward and caught her.

As soon as I stretched out my fingertips, I felt a gentle breeze blowing under my sleeves.

Nothing, nothing caught.

This sudden change caused everyone around to be confused, and everyone rushed forward. Eunuch Yu looked at them nervously, while several close guards had already changed their faces in panic, shouting: "Your Majesty, be careful

There is fraud——"

He had already held Nangong Lizhu in his arms, and the unconscious woman had completely lost consciousness. Her pale face was almost transparent, without a trace of blood. A few strands of black hair were wrapped around her pale cheeks, but it gave people a strange look.

She feels enchanting. Even so, she is still so beautiful, leaning softly on this man's chest, looking increasingly thin and delicate, like a cloud of smoke. If she breathes harder, it will dissipate at any time.

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, be careful!"

Without saying a word, Pei Yuanhao picked up the person in his arms, turned around and walked towards the carriage.

When he walked past me with Nangong Lizhu in his arms, his shoulder bumped into me. I staggered slightly, but he had already walked over.

I stood there blankly for an unknown amount of time before slowly lowering my head and looking at my hands.

The pale fingertips were still trembling slightly, but there was nothing on them.

Nothing, nothing caught.

Slowly turning around, I saw that the person had already boarded the carriage, and the curtain was lowered with a whoosh, thus blocking everything inside.

People are so confused that they have no idea when they returned to the state capital. It was only when I got out of the car that I felt severe pain all over my body.

I forgot to use a mat, and the carriage was speeding all the way. The bumps made me dizzy, my stomach was churning, and I felt like vomiting.

When I got off the carriage, the people in front had already entered the mansion, and the people in the state capital were also shocked. For some reason, Liu Zhaoyi was going to perform a ritual for Liu Yi early in the morning, but suddenly turned back halfway, and everyone came out to greet her. I saw

Looking at the chaos ahead, my hands and feet became increasingly weak.

At this time, Shui Xiu also ran out from inside and hurriedly came over to help me: "Girl!"

I was helped out of the carriage by her, and she also had a panicked expression on her face. She looked at my pale face, then looked over there, and whispered: "Girl, what's going on? I

I just took a quick look and it seemed like she was the Crown Princess?"

"..."

When I spoke, my voice trembled slightly: "Then, she is no longer the Crown Princess."

"Ah...!"

"Don't talk nonsense."

"Oh." She stuck out her tongue in fright, and then said: "Girl, since we are not going out, let's go back quickly."

"Well..." I nodded and let her help me walk in. After taking two steps, she felt something was wrong. Especially when I entered the door, I tripped over the threshold and almost fell. She hurriedly hugged me.

, looking at my increasingly pale face, Shuixiu faintly felt something and said softly: "Girl, what's wrong with you?"

"..."

"Why are you shivering? Have you caught a cold?"

"..."

It’s not that I’m catching a cold, I’m just scared. I’ve never been as scared as I am now.

Even when I first learned that Liu Zhaoyi was going to Hongye Temple, I didn't have such fear, but when I saw Nangong Lizhu standing there covered in blood and sneering calmly, I started to get scared.
p>

What am I afraid of?

Being supported by Shuixiu, I felt like I was stepping on clouds step by step. I didn’t know how I walked in. The entrance to the inner courtyard was already lined with guards and sentries, and officials from several state capitals stood nervously.

There, no one could get in, and everyone was sweating.

When I walked over, I realized that several imperial doctors had been called in. The palace maids had been delivering water and medicine back and forth for countless times.

As soon as I got closer, I saw Liu Zhaoyi in the crowd.

Her face was still deserted, but when she looked back and saw me, she raised her eyebrows with a sarcastic expression, walked up to me and looked at me: "What's wrong with Miss Qingying?"

"..."

"My face is very ugly."

As she spoke, she raised her eyes slightly and looked at the closed door in the inner courtyard behind her, and said, "Is it for that person?"

I raised my eyes and looked at her: "What does Zhaoyi want to say?"

"It's nothing, I just remembered something." She smiled slightly: "A delicate heart with seven orifices cannot compare with a beautiful appearance."

"..."

In fact, some words don't need to be said by people, they have already been understood in the heart. But when someone says them word by word, the feeling is completely different from knowing it in the heart. It's like being pierced by red-hot needles one by one.

In my heart.

It hurts, even breathing hurts.

I wanted to struggle to show a smile and say that I was actually not the Qiqiao Exquisite Heart, but when I opened my mouth, I realized that I was too tired to speak.

At this moment, a sweet cry suddenly came from the side.

I turned around and saw that a little palace maid was delivering a box of pills inside. She accidentally fell to the ground and the box fell to the ground. Fortunately, it was not broken.

Eunuch Yu had been standing outside presiding over affairs. When he saw this scene, he immediately came up and cursed: "You little hooves seeking death, are you seeking death!"

The little palace maid was so frightened that she started to cry: "Father-in-law, please spare me, father-in-law."
