Chapter 127 You like him

"What do you...what do you mean?" With a playful smile on his lips, Shangguan Qi looked at Nanyin Yuluo with slightly doubtful eyes. "You're so good, why are you talking about this?"

"Qi'er, tell me the truth. Are you... are you reluctant to leave the palace?" He hesitated and then asked.

"Why do you say that? Have I shown that I am very attached to this palace?" The peach blossoms were still flying, and Shangguan Qi's pure eyes were so bright amid the falling flowers. Nanyin Yuluo watched quietly.

She then sighed softly.

"No, it's just that you haven't said anything about leaving the palace in the past few days. I thought you weren't ready to leave." He played with the teacup on the table and said lightly.[

"Aren't you busy with the assassination of Ao Cang these days? So, I'm not thinking about it. What's wrong?" I still don't understand, why would he ask about this when he is such a good person.

"What about when things are over?" he asked pretending to be relaxed.

"It can't end so easily. After all, who is the mastermind behind it is not that--"

"It's almost time." He interrupted her. Seeing her turning her head to look at him in surprise, she explained, "My men have new information. General Mo Xuanyu has found new clues there. It can lead to the murderer."

Mastermind, so this matter is almost over."

"Really? That's great." He breathed out slowly, feeling that the tension of the past few days was slowly relaxing. Seeing Mei, he still looked at her with a puzzled look on his face, then he lay on the table and sighed.

"The matter has been resolved, but I cannot leave as soon as the matter is resolved. I am too weak now. If I go out rashly, I will cause trouble."

"In the past, if you really wanted to leave, no one would stop you." Looking at the petals falling on the table, they were standing on the branches a few days ago, pink and impressive, but now they are about to turn into

Dust, grind into dust.

Things are always changing, so why are people different?

"That's because I had the Shangguan family backing me in the past. I can be unscrupulous. Here, I'm the only one. I have to be responsible for my actions." He touched the purple crystal bracelet on his wrist and looked at it.

"Se" answered him calmly. Nanyin Yuluo noticed her little move and suddenly smiled.

"Is it because of him? Because of him, you don't want to leave." There was a hint of pain in his eyes, and he asked calmly.

"He? Who is he?" The hand holding the bracelet paused, then turned his head and asked him blankly. "Who are you referring to?"

"What do you think? Apart from him, who else in this palace is worthy of your nostalgia?" He smiled mockingly, then picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea.

"You understand wrong. I have never been nostalgic for him. I just worry about Yaya and the others because I have little strength now. You know, they are very good to me. I can't leave them behind." Because once she escapes, they will

There is certainly no way to escape responsibility.

"So? Qi'er, do you still remember what you said? You said you wanted to be free and would not ask about political affairs anymore. But what about you now? Are you free? Haven't you been avoiding the Imperial Study Room? But

Now, why did you take the initiative to step in again? You can completely ignore it." Looking at her lowered eyes, Nanyin Yuluo's tone became much harder. The depressed depression in his heart these days seemed to be erupting little by little.

"That's because... I can't let the people suffer because of this matter. My power also needs a stable environment to develop." The hands holding the bracelet slowly tightened, facing Mei's aggressive "

Forcing people, Shangguan Qi began to feel inexplicable panic in his heart.

"Excuse! Xiaoqi, these are all the excuses you made for yourself to stay. That day in the Royal Garden, the little boy came to you and said that there was something important, so you ran over in a hurry. Your face was nervous at the time

The look on his face cannot be concealed. Xiao Qi, tell me, are the reasons for your staying here really just because of those?" His tone changed from tough to cautious, and he looked at Shangguan Qi's lowered eyes and feather-fan eyelashes.

The hair is flying like a butterfly, and the purple eyes that have always been calm are now like pebbles thrown into the lake, stirring up circles of water ripples, breaking the previous calm.

Charming's heart also became flustered along with this ripple.

"I...I..." Faced with his question, Shangguan Qi fell into unprecedented confusion. Every bit of the past with Xuanyuan Yeya played in his mind like a movie.

One playback.

When they first met, she turned into a little eunuch and yelled at him. She not only kicked him twice but also scolded him. As a result, he was so angry that he almost ate himself.

The second time they met on the road, she openly teased him in the street, and then watched his crimson cheeks fly away.[

The third time, her identity was exposed in the royal study room, and she shamelessly refused to admit it, which made him unable to hold on to her pigtails, and then the two officially formed a grudge.

Then, she bit his finger, and then said in front of him, "If you don't do it for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth."...

Later, she signed an agreement with him in order to leave the palace. She helped him draw a map to relieve the drought in the south. In order to make money, she auctioned off his nights and kidnapped Yehan, which made him furious.

One night, they played wildly and forgot themselves in excitement.

He invited her to dinner, but she refused and asked Concubine Shu and Concubine Li to accompany her. He angrily came to question her in the heavy rain, and then they both got angry...

He gave her a bracelet on her birthday, but she misunderstood it as belonging to Concubine Rong. She went to him angrily and threw him to the ground...

At the coming-of-age ceremony, she fought hard for him in the ring, and he looked at her intently in the audience...

She went to Concubine Rong's palace. After hearing this, he rushed over and carefully observed her expression...

They once discussed one thing together in the imperial study until late at night...

They had disagreements and had fierce arguments in the palace or the royal study...

He took her hand to explain the misunderstanding about the bracelet and put it on her personally...

He hugged her to sleep and massaged her hands and feet...

Things in the past passed quickly before his eyes one by one, and Shangguan Qi suddenly realized that the relationship between them had changed from tit-for-tat enemies at the beginning to what could be called close friends now. In the Taoyuan, the cheerful cries of the silver fox could be heard like silver bells.

Come on, it was a spiritual animal that he sent to catch for her entertainment in the snow-capped mountains on the far border out of fear that she would be lonely. Unknowingly, so many things had happened between them, even though some were just minor ones.

It was an accident, but these small things were gradually put together like thin threads, and finally formed a large sealed net, covering her firmly at the bottom of the net without knowing it. If it hadn't been for Mei Mei's questioning today

, she is probably still in a trance, and does not understand that so many things happened between her and a man she hated at the beginning.

But she was unaware of all this.

"Xiao Qi, what are you thinking about?" Seeing Shangguan Qi lowering her head and saying nothing, Mei couldn't help but feel anxious. She reached out and shook her arm.

"No...it's nothing." He looked back nervously, glanced at Mei in a panic, and then lowered his head. In the bottom of his heart, Mei's question just came back to him again.

"Xiaoqi, tell me, do you like this palace?" He reached out and grabbed her hand, staring at her profile and asked.

"No... I don't like it." He shook his head gently.

"Then do you want to leave?"

"Yeah, I want it."

"Then let's leave here, okay?" The hand holding hers tightened secretly. Nangong Yuluo was a little nervous because he felt an unprecedented fear. He could definitely feel that Xiao Qi, who only belonged to him, was becoming someone else's.

Xiaoqi. He was very scared. He didn’t want to feel this way, so the only way was to take Xiaoqi away from here and away from these men.

Leave here...Leave? Raising his head in shock, looking at the longing in Mei's eyes, Shangguan Qi shook his head gently, "No, Mei. I can't leave yet."

"Why? Is it because of him?" Hearing her rejection, Nanyin Yuluo instantly lost his mind, grabbed her hand, and roared.[

"It's not him, I'm here for those——"

"That's him! Xiaoqi, admit it! You stay here because of that man! You like him, you already like him!" Nanyin Yuluo's eyes seemed to be burning, and he yelled at Shangguan Qi.

.But my heart sank in an instant.

"No! I didn't! You're talking nonsense!" Shangguan Qi shook off his hand, stood up and yelled at him. Upon hearing this, Yinhu and Yurou ran over and looked at the two confronting each other with worried expressions.

"Why is that? Then tell me why?" Mei stood up and asked her heartbreakingly. The pain in her eyes hurt Shangguan Qi's eyes.

"I don't know! I don't know!" She covered her ears and yelled at him a few times, then ran out with her skirt in hand. When the silver fox nestled in Yurou's arms saw this, she immediately jumped away and trotted after him.

go out.

"Brother, what happened? What happened to you and Xiaoqi?" Yurou wanted to chase her out, but Shangguan Qi had already run away. So she turned to look at Nanyin Yuluo and found that he had fallen back down without knowing it.

In the seat, there was a look of pain on his face.

"Brother, brother, are you okay?" Yurou leaned over worriedly, seeing Nanyin Yuluo staring at the table with a pale face, she couldn't help but feel worried.

"I'm fine, you go see Xiao Qi." He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, suddenly realizing that he seemed to be too impulsive just now. Why exactly? I have endured it for so long, why can't I endure it today?

Woolen cloth?

He raised his head and looked at the blue sky. In his deep eyes, the pain was like water...

You like him, you like him, you like him...

Mei's voice was like a nightmare lingering around her, reverberating differently in her mind than in her ears. Silver Fox's anxious call came from behind, but her pace did not slow down at all and she continued to run forward.

She knew that she had lost her composure, and she knew that the palace people around her were looking at her with strange eyes, but she didn't want to stop, she just wanted to run, she just wanted to run away from here, run away from here...

"Qi'er, what's wrong with you!" Her body was suddenly grabbed by someone, and she raised her head in panic. Shangguan Yu's enchanting face bloomed proudly like a red lotus. In her charming phoenix eyes, she looked like a fugitive, embarrassed.

.

"Brother..." Her body couldn't help but tremble in his arms. Looking at her appearance at this time, she didn't know what to say. She only felt that the red clothes on his body were so dazzling, which made her...

Can't help crying...

"Qi'er, Qi'er, are you okay?" Seeing Shangguan Qi shed tears inexplicably, Shangguan Yu was even more panicked. He hugged her tightly into his arms, held her long hair, and settled her trembling body.

"Brother..." Shangguan Qi wanted to say that she was fine, but tears fell involuntarily, and the pain in her heart felt like needle pricks, making her unable to control herself.

"Qi'er, Qi'er, what happened to you?" Shangguan Yu held her cheek nervously, with deep worry and fear in his eyes. He felt the tears falling on his fingers were as hot as fire.

"I······"

"Ouch -" Yinhu finally caught up with Shangguan Qi, yelled, and then threw himself at her feet, jumping up and down anxiously with his head raised. Behind Yinhu, Yurou was running over panting.
