The world's ambitions are unparalleled

Chapter 24: Dream Short Screen Deep Qing Night Sorrow (3)
Only then did Jinse notice that he didn't call himself "my king", but only "I".She stared blankly at him for a long time, then whispered: "Are you crazy?"

The smile on his face was gone only for a moment, and he looked at her calmly at this moment, but it was quite different from before.In fact, this difference probably started on the way to Zhongli, but she was so slow that she didn't realize it until now.

"Probably, he's crazy." Su Li replied calmly in a deep voice.

He's crazy?Jinse only thought that she was going crazy, seeing him looking at her with dark eyes, she hastily turned her gaze away.

A branch of the fake peach blossom just landed in front of her eyes, Jinse raised her hand unconsciously, stretched out her hand to caress the petals of the fake peach blossom, her heart was in a mess.

what to do?I asked myself repeatedly in my heart, but the answer seemed to be hidden deep in the complicated sorrows in my heart, no matter how hard I searched, I couldn't find it.

She kept her head down to pick peaches, Su Li didn't say much, turned around and just saw a guard approaching with two large baskets of delicate fake peach blossoms, so she stepped forward to pick one and handed it to Jinse.

Jinse took a look at him, took it after all, turned around and tied it to another bare branch, then turned her head and asked him, "Does it look good?"

Su Li smiled lightly and nodded.

He laughed again.With mixed thoughts in her heart, Jinse lowered her head to pick out a few more branches, and found another branch to tie.

"Hey——" Suddenly met a tall branch, Jinse couldn't reach it anyway, and couldn't help calling anxiously.

Su Li walked over, raised his hand from behind her, and tied the highest part of the peach blossom.

Jinse looked up, her eyes were shining brightly, but after a while, the brightness gradually dimmed: "No matter how beautiful it is, it is fake."

Su Li's hand slowly lowered, but suddenly turned around and wrapped around her waist: "The peach blossoms will gradually bloom next month, and then, shall I accompany you to see it?"

Jinse's body froze, and at the same time, the feeling in her heart gradually became clear, and she quietly lowered her eyes.

How could you not be moved?This person is probably the first person in the world who likes her, and is also the first person who treats her well with the love of a man and a woman.Although she used to think that he was very bad to her, but that kind of "badness" never hurt her at all.What's more, now, when she is most painful and vulnerable, he is there.

But how can I let go of some obsessions?
Just as Su Li couldn't let go of his obsession to unify the five kingdoms, his father couldn't let go of his obsession to follow Su Li, and Jinse also had his own obsession.

Thinking of this, she gently broke away from him and took two steps back.

Su Li seemed to have expected her to have such a reaction long ago, but his expression remained the same. He was about to say something when hurried footsteps came from behind.

"See King Ning!" The visitor hurriedly saluted, "The emperor hastily called King Ning back to the palace, please leave immediately."

Su Li frowned slightly: "Did you say anything?"

"The slave doesn't know."

Su Li's eyes darkened again, and he glanced at Jinse.

Jinse hurriedly said: "You go, don't worry about me, I will go back when I am tired."

Su Li nodded, then turned around and strode away.

Jinse looked at his receding back, calmly breathed a sigh of relief, stayed for a moment, then continued to pick peach blossoms and tie them to those branches.

Su Li hurried into the palace, and when he came to the imperial study, he heard the emperor calling Su Mo: "Ah Mo."

No one agreed.

Su Li was puzzled, and stepped into the hall, but saw Su Mo clearly standing in the hall, but he didn't seem to hear the emperor calling him.

The emperor and Su Li looked at each other, and called again: "Ah Mo!"

Only then did Su Mo raise his head, as if he didn't know that he missed the emperor's call earlier, he slightly raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Brother Emperor, what's the matter?" Turning his head, he saw Su Li also stepping into the hall, and said again: "The third brother came very quickly."

The emperor sighed helplessly, and said with a smile: "Ah Mo, you have been in a trance recently, what is the reason? I don't have any beautiful maids to serve you in this imperial study. This time you will be absent-minded, and you will never use this as an excuse again." Bar?"

Su Mo said with a smile, "I don't even have a beautiful court lady, how can I cheer up?"

"You! Tell me what to say about you!" The emperor shook his head helplessly.

Su Li was not in the mood to listen to what they said: "Brother Huang urgently summoned his younger brother, why?"

"This matter is related to both of you." The emperor stood up, picked up a memorial on the table, came to Su Mo, and handed it to him.

Su Mo's brows frowned slightly, and when he took it and opened it, his brows gradually relaxed.Seeing the end, the long and narrow peach eyes were already full of smiles, and he handed the memorial to Su Li with a wave of his hand.

When Su Li saw the cover of the memorial, he knew where it came from, and immediately had a bad premonition in his heart. After opening and reading a line, his complexion suddenly sank.

"This matter is really embarrassing for me." The emperor stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the two people opposite him, "The dignified princess would rather be a side concubine than marry you, the third son. Since this matter is related to both of you, I Naturally, I want you two to discuss together."

"This matter is not a problem to me." Su Mo raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly, "Brother Huang can just discuss with the third brother, and the younger brother has no objection."

The emperor then looked at Su Li: "What do you say?"

Su Li silently looked at the memorial in his hand repeatedly, his brows furrowed.

This should be the best thing for him, but why, there is no joy in his heart?

He didn't make a sound for a long time, but the emperor suddenly clapped his hands and smiled: "I have expected you to react like this a long time ago, can you worry about your little princess?"

The corners of Su Li's lips sank almost invisibly, and Su Mo, who was smiling as usual, flickered from the corner of his eyes, and suddenly nodded and said: "Brother Huang is clearly aware."

"I also know that you are newlyweds, and it is time for you to be in love. If you are suddenly asked to marry your side concubine, she will definitely not accept it for a while." The emperor took back the note, "Fortunately, there is no rush for this matter, and I will give you another period of time. , You have to think carefully before giving me an answer."

When Su Mo and Su Li left the imperial study room together, Su Li still remained silent. Su Mo couldn't help but sighed with a smile: "This is a beautiful thing. In the past, I'm afraid I've already agreed to it?"

Su Li was silent for another moment, then suddenly looked up at him and said, "Yes, in the past, I would definitely agree. Now, I really can't let Jinse go."

Su Mo smiled faintly, turned his eyes away and said nothing more.

After walking for a while, Su Li suddenly looked at Su Mo: "Why didn't the second brother ask me, how is Jinse doing now?"

Su Mo seemed to have heard something funny: "Since Jinse is your princess, why do you want me to ask?"

"Anyway, Jinse is also here to save you." Su Li's face was calm, but his tone was slightly cold, "I never asked why Jinse appeared in Linglong Pavilion that night, and why did he risk his life to save you. But Jinse Ye was greatly frightened, and the second brother didn't know about it, but in the past half a month, he never asked. With the second brother's temperament, it seems that he shouldn't behave like this."

Hearing this, Su Mo sighed slightly, stretched out his hand to caress his forehead: "You don't know, Haitang got into a fight with me a few days ago, which caused me to burn out these days, and I have no time to take care of other things. I was negligent, so how is Jinse doing now?"

"Not good." Su Li replied indifferently, "I still have frequent nightmares, and I feel like a bird in fright every day."

"Really." Su Mo slightly hooked the corners of his lips, "Then I'll visit her tomorrow."

"That's not necessary." Su Li said, "I'm afraid she will remember what happened that night when she sees you, as long as the second brother has a heart."

Su Mo nodded indifferently and said nothing.

In the evening, Jinse and Lvhe, who had been busy in the peach blossom forest all afternoon, finally returned from East Lake.After entering the city, it was just the first time when the lights came on, and the streets were extremely lively. Seeing that Jinse was still alive, Lü He dragged her to the night market together.

The two bought a lot of things, big and small, and all kinds of food along the way, which finally made Jinse happy, and Lu He was very pleased: "What else do you want to eat?"

Jinse was still holding a bunch of candied haws in her mouth, and suddenly her eyes lit up when she heard this: "The crystal dumplings from Yunshanlou!"

Lu He was more tolerant than ever: "Then let's go."

The two of them held hands and walked forward. Before they had gone far, Jinse suddenly withdrew his hand, and then broke away from the base of Luhe and retreated.

"Miss!" Lu He was shocked for a moment, and then saw the abandoned "Linglong Pavilion" hanging under the bright red lantern in front of her, and she screamed in her heart, and hurriedly turned to hold Jinse, but she saw Jinse Already retreating in a panic, he bumped into a guard with a knife in front of a soft sedan chair.

"Who!" The guard seemed extremely nervous, and suddenly shouted angrily. Jinse turned her head and saw the flash of the knife, and suddenly her face paled again, and she hugged her head and screamed.

The curtain of the soft sedan was lifted suddenly, revealing Su Mo's frowning face.

"Second Master!" Seeing him, Lu He rushed forward to protect Jinse, "It's my young lady, Second Master, please don't hurt Miss!"

Su Mo's eyes were deep, looking at Jinse who shivered in Luhe's arms, huddled into a ball, all the coldness in his eyes finally turned into softness.

The sedan chair landed slowly, he got up and got out of the sedan chair, came to Jinse, squatted down slowly, stretched out his hand to caress Jinse's head, and called her softly: "Jinse?"

Jinse's body froze suddenly, and after a long time, she slowly raised her head.

After seeing Su Mo's face clearly, the face that was already panicked to the extreme suddenly turned pale!
"You..." Jinse murmured a word, and suddenly squeezed Lu He's hand, "Lu He, let's go!"

Su Mo slowly withdrew his hand, but still looked at her.

Luhe took a look at Su Mo, and hurriedly helped Jinse up: "Miss, don't be afraid, we'll leave now."

Still trembling uncontrollably, Jinse leaned on Luhe and nodded gently.

"Jinse." Su Mo called her again suddenly, "I'll send you back."

"Don't!" Jinse looked back at him suddenly, emotionally incoherent, "I didn't! I didn't appear in front of you on purpose, I didn't wait for you! I don't want to see you, I don't want to see you again!"

Su Mo remembered what he had said to Jin Yan that day in front of Jin Yan's tomb, and all he could see was that his eyes were dark and bottomless.

But Jinse couldn't see it, she just let Lu He help her, and left here with messy steps.

It wasn't until they boarded the carriage that Lu He stroked Jinse's head and sighed: "I knew you were thinking so much, but I didn't wake you up sooner. The young lady knew it, so I should be to blame."

Jinse leaned in her arms in silence, finally stopped trembling, and said in a low voice: "Lu He, let's go back to the Marquis's Mansion."

Hou An Ding did not return to the mansion because he was on duty in the army, so Jinse walked straight to the study as soon as he entered the mansion gate.

Sure enough, Song Heng was still there, playing chess with Yu Qian.

Jinse drove away Yu Qian unceremoniously, sat down opposite Song Heng, and stared at the chessboard with frowning eyes.

Song Heng slowly put the chess piece in his hand back into the chess box, then reached out his hand, and pressed the center of Jinse's eyebrows, as if to smooth her frowning eyebrows.

Jinse didn't move, and after a while, she suddenly said in a daze: "Song Heng, I want to do one thing, but once I do this, I will lose everything now, even my father. You say, what do I do?"

Then don't do it.Song Heng said lightly.

"But...but..." Jinse murmured, but she just repeated these two words, unable to say the next words at all.

Song Heng suddenly shook her hand vigorously, and then said - Master Hou, King Ning, Lu He, and me.

Jinse understood what he meant, but she lowered her head and couldn't help but shed tears: "If I can't do this, will I be unhappy for the rest of my life?"

Song Heng pursed his lips, and suddenly reached out to hold her head in his hands, his eyes clearly said - don't do stupid things.

Jinse stared at him blankly for a long time, then suddenly pushed his hand away forcefully, turned around and ran out the door.

Song Heng didn't chase, because he knew it would be useless even if he chased him.

He stared at Jinse's previous chess moves - she made a wrong move, but she was resolute.

In the early morning of the second day, Jinse returned to the palace with Luhe, but happened to meet Su Li who was about to enter the palace.

Su Li was about to get on the horse, but when he saw Jinse's carriage coming, he waited under the horse, and when Jinse got off the carriage, he beckoned her to come over.

He looked at her face and nodded slightly: "Your spirit is much better, did you sleep well last night?"

Waiting here just to ask this?Jinse pursed her lips and nodded: "Well, there are no more nightmares."

"That's naturally good." Su Li said, "If you still want to go out to relax, let someone accompany you."

Jinse's mood at this moment is far from being "flattered". She thought for a while and said, "I want to ride a horse, too?"

Su Li didn't think too much: "Yes."

"But I don't even have a good horse." Jinse sighed aggrievedly.

Su Li was stunned for a moment, then suddenly put the rein in his hand into her hand: "Qingfeng has been with me for two years, it is considered a rare good horse, now it is yours."

Jinse looked at the rein in his hand in a daze, and it took him a long time to recover, and put the rein back into his hand with a smile: "I'm just talking casually, how can I really dare to want your horse? I remember There is still a Jinglei horse in the stable of the palace, I can ride that horse."

Su Li looked at her, as if he still had something to say, Jin Se hurriedly said: "My lord, hurry up and get on the horse, it will be bad if you miss the morning time."

Su Li paused for another moment before finally getting ready to mount his horse. The moment he turned around, he suddenly said: "The Longevity Day next month, when you are free, think carefully about what to give to the emperor's birthday."

Jin Se smiled with crooked eyebrows, and said casually, "For Longevity Day, I'll give him 1 birthdays."

"Don't be lazy." Su Li suddenly reached out his hand and flicked it between her eyebrows. Although it seemed like punishment, it was full of pampering, "Think carefully."

Jin Se was dumbfounded again, but Su Li seemed finally satisfied, got on his horse and galloped away.
