What are you afraid of?

Xiao Ruyue laughed bitterly in her heart, but her face still had a faint smile.

She retreated back from Yuwen He's embrace and waved the food in her hands: "Your Majesty should quickly try out Lu Yi's cooking. That girl is still waiting at the door for you to praise her."

It was rare that she took the initiative to visit, and she even brought something with her. Yuwen He would definitely taste it, no matter what, he would definitely do what she asked him to do, and at the same time, instruct a young eunuch to serve her tea.

"I heard that last night, you guys took advantage of the time when I wasn't at the Phoenix Palace to share with a group of people to eat. "The taste is really good." he said as he ate.

As he chewed and chewed, he continued speaking, it was obvious that this was not a rest for the emperor, but when Yuwen He did all this, he did not look wretched at all, instead, there was an additional cuteness in his actions.

"Look at you, your mouth is full of food," Xiao Ruyue looked at the broken fragments at the corner of Yuwen He's mouth, and subconsciously took out his embroidered handkerchief to wipe his mouth.

When she touched Yuwen He, even she was stunned for a moment. She wanted to pull back, but Yuwen He grabbed her wrist.

"What is Min Er afraid of? Isn't it supposed to be like this for normal couples? "

"But Your Majesty is the Emperor." Xiao Ruyue felt that her excuse was really crappy.

Yuwen He was even more unconcerned, "There is nothing that can't be done between the Emperor and Empress. If I can cripple three thousand harem for you, why not open your heart to me? What are you afraid of? "

Occasionally, Yuwen He would call himself "I" and occasionally, he would also call himself "We". Now, he called himself "We".

"I, I didn't."

"You do. From the moment you found out my true identity, you avoided me. In your heart, you just want to be a queen, not my wife. The Queen was her responsibility, but the wife had to have love that came from the bottom of her heart. You are afraid, you are afraid that you will fall in love with me, you are afraid that you will be caught in it. "

"The better I treat you, the more scared you become. The more scared you are, the more you want me to treat you well. When we're together, your emotions can't be hidden from my eyes. You are smart, but at the same time, you are too concerned about your own heart.

Xiao Ruyue was unable to refute.

She could not say a word.

She didn't dare to look at him, so she subconsciously avoided his gaze.

"But why? Min Er, why? Why should I be afraid of being my wife? Why should I be afraid of being nice to you? Perhaps I should ask, why are you afraid to love me? "

Yuwen He pinched Xiao Ruyue's chin, forcing her to look straight in his eyes.

Xiao Ruyue mustered up her courage, steeled her heart, and looked directly into Yun Che's eyes, but she was actually shocked by the emotions contained within those black eyes.

Waves of ripples appeared in his heart.

Yuwen He sighed softly, "Forget it. You don't want to say I don't dare to say it, and I don't want to force you. I can wait, until the day you want me to. I want you to tell me your secret yourself. "

His expression was unreadable.

"My, Your Majesty is joking. What secret is this concubine hiding?" Xiao Ruyue forcefully suppressed the worry and guilt in his heart, and he forced a smile.

"Your Majesty, could it be that you suspect that your concubine has some ulterior motive for marrying into the Grand Xia?" You can rest assured on this matter. Chenqie has never been willing to see Da Xia and Grand Mausoleum create trouble for themselves. This chenqie, the princess of Grand Mausoleum and the empress of Da Xia, already possesses everything that others don't have.

If she had not experienced life and death, if she had not experienced so many ups and downs, she would probably not have had the courage to say such insignificant words in front of Yuwen He.

Yuwen He said with a smile that was not a smile: "Min Er really knows how to change the topic. "But it's okay, like I said, I won't force you today."

Xiao Ruyue did not dare to relax, as Yuwen He's extremely sharp gaze seemed to cause her no longer able to hide.

It was as if he could see through her disguise and see through everything about her.

This kind of perception made Xiao Ruyue even more flustered and helpless.

She pulled at the corner of her clothes, secretly exhaled, and thought of a way to put it —

"Your Majesty, this Imperial Consort Ye is as beautiful as a flower, why didn't you teach her to sleep with you? The other Luzhou-yuang-yuan-yuan-jie s and talents in the palace cannot always be empty, right? "

The more she talked, the more she felt guilty, and Xiao Ruyue was clear on this point.

But the situation now was too awkward.

Yuwen He suddenly laughed, his thin lips raised in an evil smile as he looked down at Xiao Ruyue and said, "Isn't the empress investigating the Imperial Consort Ye? Do you still think I should call her to bed? I don't want my pillow man to be a poisonous snake. "

Xiao Ruyue clenched her teeth.

Fortunately, the young eunuch served him tea and finally broke the deadlock.

However, that young eunuch was very observant. Yuwen He glanced at him from the corner of his eyes, and quickly withdrew himself.

Just as the young eunuch was about to leave, Yuwen He whispered into her ear, his low and hoarse voice piercing through her eardrums, "I only need you. The others, have to do with us. "

He paused before continuing, "By the way, I'll tell you a secret. Before I was sheltered by my Royal Grandfather, I once lived on the streets. On the eighth day of the second month, when the snow was falling heavily and other people were reuniting with their families, I collapsed outside their back door, dying. If not for a kind-hearted lady saving me at that time, Yuwen He would not be in this world anymore. "

It was him!

The one who had fallen outside her back door, the stubborn and extremely arrogant youth, really was him!

Even though she had already guessed the connection between her and him, even though she had always wanted to confirm, but hearing the news from Yuwen He's mouth, Xiao Ruyue's shock was hard to describe.

She could even feel her body stiffen as she heard the news.

"Judging from Min Er's reaction, does she know that kind lady? If you know him, you must introduce him to me. " Yuwen He laughed happily, but that smile quickly faded. "But how do you know her? Min Er grew up in the Grand Mausoleum's capital, how would she know her? "

"Chenqie, I don't recognize the kind-hearted lady that His Majesty spoke of." Xiao Ruyue's back was drenched in cold sweat, she raised her head and looked at Yuwen He, and revealed a regretful smile, "But Master said that she is the person who saved your life. I had thought that His Majesty was a prince who had lived in luxury since he was a child. I had never thought that you had experienced such things.

"Isn't Min Er's life in the Qishan Mansion bad as well? She had lost her mother when she was young, and her stepmother had been treated badly by her father. Although she was a princess in name, her life was worse than a servant's. "should be most aware of that feeling, despite the fact that her status is revered, she is still able to live." Yuwen He's words became sharper, and her gaze became sharper.

Xiao Ruyue had nowhere to run, she steeled her heart, and forced herself to look him in the eye with her watery eyes.

"Didn't you say that you wouldn't force me? Why are you bringing up this matter? Yes, I am the princess of Qishan Mansion, someone who can't live as long as a maidservant. I am a pitiful child whose fiance was snatched away by a half-sister. I am no longer obsessed with the past. I have already abandoned my past and wholeheartedly assumed the role of Princess He and Grand Xia. Why does Your Majesty want to force me into a corner? "

Her bright eyes were filled with mist, I felt sorry for her when I saw her.

Xiao Ruyue tugged at the corner of her shirt, not allowing herself to cry.

At this moment, her mood was extremely weak. It was not only for Yuwen He to see, but she had also used her alluring silhouette to voice out the pain in her heart and her soft spot.

His emotions had been accumulating for too long, and at this moment, they were all bursting out.

Perhaps it was because he was too wronged that tears started to uncontrollably flow out.

"Don't cry."

Yuwen He's heart tightened.

He leaned down and kissed the tears off her face. She hugged Xiao Ruyue in pain.

"Don't cry, I won't force you. I will wait for the day when you are willing to confess to me. You don't have to worry, I'll always be here, waiting for you. "

"You'll see it when you turn around."

The low and deep male voice beside his ears, just with two simple sentences, was unable to extricate himself from the abyss.

It was better than speaking a thousand words, better than swearing an oath to the sea and the mountain.

It was superior to countless words of love in the mortal world.

I'll always be here, waiting for you.

You can see it when you look back.

No matter how cautious he was, it didn't matter at this moment.

Perhaps she had been alone for too long, or perhaps her heart was too lonely. When she met someone who was good to her, she could not free herself from wanting to indulge in it.

Xiao Ruyue raised her face, and couldn't help but offer her own lips.

Yuwen He quickly recovered from his shock and turned around to take charge.

To express everything with a passionate kiss, to attack the city. Only by doing so could he express his excitement at this moment.

Fang Weiyong returned, but just as he was about to enter, he was pulled by Lu Yi, "Eunuch Fang, His Majesty and my esteemed wangfei seem to be arguing, don't go in at this time."

"They're arguing?" Fang Weiyong lowered his voice, not daring to believe it.

Lu Yi responded with a determined expression.

She couldn't hear what was being said, but there was no doubt about it.

Fang Weiyong did not believe it, and peeked inside through the gap of the door, after which he pushed the door open guiltily, patting his chest, as if he had seen something that he should not have seen.

"What's wrong?"

Fang Weiyong shook his head, glared at the few guards who were equally curious, and scolded them with a low voice: "What are you looking at, what are you looking at, watch carefully, be careful that Your Majesty doesn't cut off your heads."

Lu Yi was greatly puzzled. She gathered up her courage to peek at the gap between the door and was also scared to the point of shrinking back.

Aiyo, this little heart.

In broad daylight, in broad daylight, the two people inside were truly …

"Cough cough, about that, Eunuch Fang, we still need to wait here for a while."

After a long while, Lu Yi couldn't stand anymore. She held onto the wall and sat down. She looked up at the sky and sighed as she inwardly wailed, "My Lady, if I knew that there would be such a farce, I wouldn't have come with you." He didn't get the reward. Instead, he stood there for more than an hour.

She looked at the guards at the entrance and laughed in a vulgar manner.
