"Back to the Crown Princess, Your Highness went into the study after dinner."
The maid was respectful and courteous, not just simply showing her the way, but holding the lamp in front of her to lead her way, taking her to the study intimately, and reminding her in a low voice from time to time to pay attention to her feet.
Walking slowly on the nine-bend corridor, Le Zhi was finally able to take a closer look at this strange prince's mansion.
Xu is in response to the wedding, the mansion is still decorated with lanterns, and there are red lanterns hanging on the eaves of the corridor, adding a lot of joy to the mansion. Like the East Palace, this place is big but deserted, and there are not many maids and servants.
Just as Huo Du made her feel, cold and lonely. When getting along with him, there seems to be an invisible barrier around him, separating him from everything in the world...
Since she was brought back to Qi by Huo Xu, her original plan was to accompany Huo Xu softly and wait for the opportunity to rescue her sister who was under house arrest.
Le Zhi knew very well that he had nothing now, except for this body, a body that Huo Xu had never obtained before.
Huo Xu has a desire for her, doesn't he
Even if she can't rescue her sister in the end, she can use herself as bait and die together with Huo Xu. The Dali royal family is never afraid of death. If she really came this far, she believed that her sister would find a way to commit suicide, and then they would meet again in Huangquan.
The father, mother and elder brother will be waiting for them.
However, in order to quell the anger of the neighboring country, Emperor Qi gave her to marry the crown prince. Huo Xu also wanted to follow the trend and use her beauty to get rid of his confidant. This disrupted her original plan, but it also made another plan emerge in her heart.
Hearing what Huo Xu said, Huo Du was definitely not someone to deal with, otherwise he would not suppress the struggle in his heart and let her marry Huo Du. Le Zhi knew that if a hypocrite like Huo Xu deliberately did not want her to marry, he would always have a way to persuade Emperor Qi.
However, he didn't.
Furthermore, Huo Xu told her more than once that Huo Du was a vicious wolf. It could be seen that Huo Xu hated him, but also feared him... In addition to the idle discussions of the servants of the inn, she had a general judgment in her heart that Huo Du must not be a good person.
However, hearing is false and seeing is true.
In the past, as the little princess of Li Kingdom, she lived under the doting protection of her family. She didn't need to think about many things, and she was happy and comfortable, too lazy to think about it.
When I was a child, my father said that the little prince from Qi should be better, and she listened. After she was married, the royal father promised her to Huo Xu. The mother, the queen and the elder brother and sister both said that Huo Xu was as warm and smooth as jade. He was the person they had grown up with since childhood. If she married him, she would definitely live a happy and peaceful life. At that time, she didn't understand love, but at least she had the friendship she grew up with Huo Xu since she was a child, so she agreed.
In the end, the country was destroyed.
Dali governed the country with benevolence, and her father, the emperor, was the most kind person. But in the end, it was the wrong person and the wrong person.
Therefore, Le Zhi swore that he would never trust others easily.
She only believes in herself, she can only rely on herself, and only herself.
Even if those people described Huo Du as such, she was only dubious, she had to see it for herself. And these two days, she saw it very clearly. Huo Du is not only fierce and bloodthirsty, but also indifferent.
Rao is as hypocritical as Huo Xu, and she can also detect his inner greed through his hypocritical skin. But Huo Du, apart from the fact that Huo Xiaoli could get into his eyes, she couldn't see what he cared about or wanted at all.
But Lezhi was a little convinced that with Huo Du's character, he would not sit still and allow Huo Xu to invade his territory.
So, the enemy of the enemy, can she and Huo Du become allies
Once this idea germinates, it grows wildly. Le Zhi thought, it turned out that she didn't just want to die with Huo Xu, she wanted revenge and wanted to kill too many people. She also wants to save her sister, find the missing royal sister-in-law and young nephew, and can't worry about the people of Da Li who have become subjects of the subjugated country...
The country and the family, the relatives and the people, only Huo Xu, how can they balance
If the royal father knew that she had such thoughts, I don't know how to react.
- The innocent and gentle Le Zhi died a month ago, and now the only person alive is the little princess of Li who crawled out of purgatory. She can no longer live only for herself.
Huo Xu might be right when he said that Huo Du was a wolf. But if it wasn't for the wolves, who else could defeat an evil ghost like him
She didn't know how dangerous the road she was going to take next would be. Looking for skin with tigers and dancing with wolves, she will step on the edge of the cliff with every step, and she will be shattered if she is not careful.
But she has no turning back, and she does not want to turn back.
Taking a heavy sigh of relief, Le Zhi's cheeks were as pale as paper, but the steps he took were more calm and firm.
The maid in front thought she was tired, and hurriedly said: "Prince Concubine, after a few steps, you will arrive at the study."
"Okay." Le Zhi responded warmly.
Inside the study.
"His Royal Highness, the third prince has secretly contacted the crown princess..."
Before An Xuan's words were finished, the person sitting by the window turned the wheelchair gently to look at him, put his index finger on his lips to signal for him to keep quiet, "An Xuan, it's not fun to say some things too clearly."
An Xuan was at a loss: What does Your Highness want to play...
There was a sound of footsteps from far to near outside the door, and then there was a knock on the door, "Your Highness Qi, the Crown Princess asks to see you."
Hearing this, An Xuan was even more shocked—
At this hour, shouldn't the Crown Princess set off from the East Back Gate to meet the Third Prince, why did she come here
A flash of surprise flashed across Huo Du's face, but his lacquer eyes were filled with a smile.
It's fun, isn't it coming
Seeing Huo Du nodding, An Xuan immediately went to open the door knowingly. After inviting Le Zhi into the room, he walked out of the study and closed the door.
"What's the matter?"
It's still the tone that is clear and without warmth. Le Zhi walked up to Huo Du with a solemn expression, and slowly bent his knees towards him with his hands folded...
Seeing this, Huo Du leaned forward, reached out to support her, and didn't let her kneel down.
"To do such a big ceremony?" Huo Du chuckled: "It seems to be a big deal."
"Yeah." Le Zhi nodded slightly. Since he wouldn't let him kneel, she squatted down and looked up at him: "Huo Xu wants to see me, does His Highness think I should go?"
On the way to the study, Le Zhi thought about a lot of words, but finally felt that it was inappropriate. Finally decided to throw the problem to Huo Du, let him decide, and let him see her sincerity.
