Chapter 353

A group of guards responded, and at the other end, Yun Gui and Gao Yuan made up the sleeping beds.

Mi Le was tired all the way, so she lay down on the bunk to rest. At first, she wanted to call Li Zirong over, but then she realized that her identity was not suitable, so after struggling for a long time, she left the mink fur coat that Xiao Qi gave her to Li Zirong. Let her sleep on the side bunk.

Li Zirong has always been bold and unpretentious, took a coat and took a rest in the corner, while the rest of the men sat around the fire, leaning on each other and fell asleep.

Xiao Qi went out to watch the night, and the cave was silent for a while.

But the night was still early at that time, and Mi Le couldn't really sleep well. In his field of vision, it was Hou Junli's hand hanging down beside her couch. The knuckles were slender, white and clean, and the nails were neatly trimmed.

Mi Le stared at it for a while, then suddenly stretched out his hand and hooked his fingers.Hou Junli turned his head and glanced at her, then held her hand: "Don't make trouble."

Mi Le immediately giggled: "Sleep!"

Sure enough, she closed her eyes after she finished speaking, but her hand was still held in his palm.

This night, they were safe and sound. Early the next morning, the group set off again and finally arrived at the Hunting Palace that night.

The Hunting Palace is already preparing for the hunting in a few days, and the whole Hunting Palace is lit up with fiery red lanterns.

Mi Le took Li Zirong to the back mountain of the Hunting Palace, from where he could see the lights of thousands of families at the foot of the mountain, like twinkling stars in the quiet night.

"Pretty, isn't it?" Mi Le looked at her and said, "Isn't it worse than Li Shan?"

Li Zirong's expression froze for a moment, and then she smiled slightly and shrugged: "It's really pretty, but..."

"Just what?"

Li Zirong met her gaze, there were stars in her eyes, and her face was full of brightness.In the end, she shook her head: "It's nothing, I'm just happy to see the emperor happy."

Mi Le looked at her for a while, then suddenly pulled her into the gazebo and poured her wine: "It's been a long time since I've had a drink together, let's have a drink with me!"

When it comes to drinking, Li Zirong has always been straightforward. After two glasses of wine, she raised her head and looked at Mi Le: "Has the emperor thought about it?"

"what?"

Mi Le still felt the pungentness in his mouth, and raised his head to look at her when he heard this sentence, his eyes showed doubts.

"The identity of the emperor." Li Zirong looked at her, "From ancient times to the present, there has never been a woman who has been an emperor."

Mi Le paused, but didn't speak.

Li Zirong said again: "Nowadays, everything the emperor does is based on the status of the emperor. It is undeniable that the emperor wants to be a wise king and works very hard. However, there has never been such a precedent in the past. Risking the disgrace of the world, unless the emperor can hide it for a lifetime, but, is it possible?"

Mi Le shrugged: "I don't even want to sit on the throne for the rest of my life!"

"what?"

"I've thought about it!" Mi Le touched the wine glass and said, "When the country is stable, I will choose a suitable person to inherit the throne, and then go back to seclusion."

"This...does the Regent know?"

Mi Le suddenly smiled again, and asked her: "I haven't told him yet, but do you think he would like to retire with me?"

Li Zirong fell silent again, and said after a while: "Whether you like it or not, if this road works, it's good, but if it doesn't work..."

"Aren't I still young, even if it takes another ten years, I will only be 25 years old, enough!"

Li Zirong looked at her, and finally smiled: "If this is the case, I can rest assured, anyway, the regent will help you, and the people selected by you in the future must be excellent."

Mi Le looked at her and smiled: "In the spring and March of next year, the results of the imperial examination will come out. Mr. Qi participated in this year's imperial examination, and next year you will be able to meet him in court."

Li Zirong was taken aback, then lowered her eyes, and turned the wine glass in her hand: "Why did the emperor mention him to me?"

"Be a matchmaker!" Mi Le chuckled, "Sister Li, if you like it, you have to go after it yourself, just like you used to, how nice it is!"

"But it turns out that twisted melons are not sweet." Li Zirong's voice was low.

For no reason, Hou Junli's past words flashed across Mi Le's mind.That's what she said to Hou Junli at the time, but his answer was - whether it's sweet or not, he has the final say!
Thinking of this, she immediately blushed a little, and after a while, she stretched out her hand to hold Li Zirong's hand and said, "Then wait until you're sweet before doing it!"

Li Zirong looked at her, met her clear gaze, and shook her head for a moment: "I'm not thinking about this right now, I just want to find the mastermind behind my brother as soon as possible."

Miller paused for a moment before sighing: "It's my fault too. After returning to Beijing, I was so busy with state affairs that I forgot about it!"

Li Zirong shook her head: "The emperor is busy with state affairs, so it's better to leave this matter to me, not to mention that now, I have some clues, and I will soon be close to the truth!"

Hearing this, Mi Le breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good... come, drink!"

The two sat on the back mountain until late at night, and then they went down the mountain together. Yu Quan followed them not far away, seeing the two holding hands and building in the pavilion, after sending Mi Le back to the palace, his eyes narrowed for a while. He couldn't help turning around Mi Le.

"Speak up if you have something to say!" Mi Le finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Actually, there's nothing wrong with it!" Yu Quan smiled and fetched water for her to wash up. "This servant just thinks, does the emperor...have a little interest in Miss Li?"

"What kind of messy things do you keep in your head all day long? Do you seem to be such a playful person?" She slapped Quan on the head, and Yu Quan hurriedly covered his head in shock.

"The slave is wrong!" He hugged his head and felt wronged.

"Okay, get out!"

As soon as Yu Quan walked to the door, he heard his respectful voice.

When Mi Le heard the word "Prince Regent", he immediately became serious, straightened his clothes, and looked towards the door.

After a while, Hou Junli entered the inner room, seeing her flushed cheeks, he frowned immediately: "Have you been drinking?"

Mi Le laughed immediately, stretched out his hand and gestured: "A little bit!"

"Really?" He took two steps closer, and walked up to her in an instant, his eyes glanced at her slightly red lips, and suddenly he lowered his head: "Let me try..."

Mi Le was tasted hard by him, his lips were a little numb, and he couldn't help but pushed him: "No one is guarding the door!"

"Don't worry, Yun Gui and Gao Yuan are outside, no one dares to come in."

When the words fell, he took Mi Le to the couch. Mi Le was startled, and subconsciously grabbed his clothes: "Aren't you tired after traveling for so many days?"

"I'm tired, that's why I need to sleep."

While speaking, he had already taken Mi Le to the couch, held her between the couch and his body, and said in a low voice, "Do you miss me?"

Mi Le just felt baffled: "What are you thinking? We are not together every day..."
