After getting on the spacious and comfortable carriage, Dongfang Ze took back his hand
. Su Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The carriage moved forward steadily, and the people in the car could not notice any bumps. The fatigue of running for half a day seemed to have surged up at this moment. Su Li couldn't help but let out a sigh, and slowly rubbed the center of his eyebrows with her slender fingertips. After a while, stop.
Dongfang Ze was still lazily reclining on the cushion, holding his head with one hand, staring at Su Li with a half-smiling starry eye, and said, "It seems that Su Su was indeed having a hard time being chased by Hu Erdu today."
At the mention of this man, Su Li was filled with doubts, and frowned slightly: "I was walking on the street, and he rushed directly in front of me. His words were incomprehensible and his attitude was very rude. I didn't even recognize him. ! How strange.”
Dongfang Ze's eyes flickered, he stroked his eyebrows and thought: "I heard that Hu'erdu is the number one master in the Bian Kingdom and has few opponents. Su Su, you don't know martial arts. It's really not easy to outsmart him today. "
Su Li's heart skipped a beat and she said with a faint smile: "What's so strange about this? He doesn't understand the language, and the terrain of Kyoto is no more familiar than mine, so he is naturally at a disadvantage. If I were in a strange place, I'm afraid I would have to be captured by him. ”
Dongfangze chuckled lightly and sighed: "Are you really brave, actually running to hide in the coffin? Or Su Su is so smart that he can use a dead object to seek good luck and avoid evil!"
Su Li's eyes darkened, but he just smiled and said: "There was no way out at that time, so Su Li hid in the coffin shop. He couldn't be caught!"
Dongfang Ze raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Oh? By the way, during the time you stayed inside, did you find anything unusual in the coffin? What did they say on the way?"
Su Li subconsciously squeezed the things in her sleeves tightly and said with a calm expression: "They were just busy on their way and didn't say anything... When they arrived at the City God's Temple, they were waiting for someone. It didn't take long for you to come."
Thinking back carefully, her mind was spinning rapidly. Dongfang Ze has spent so much effort to track it down. It seems that this thing must be important. Before the truth is figured out, it is best not to hand it over easily. Just now, Dongfangze was polite to the Prince of Dingguo on the surface, but there was something hidden behind his words. Could it be that... the Prince was the one who responded
Dongfang Ze's eyes were fixed on her face, and Su Li gathered her thoughts and continued: "It was pitch dark inside the coffin, and I couldn't see anything. I was only thinking about how to get out as soon as possible, and I didn't really pay much attention to anything else. "She quietly raised her eyelashes. Dongfangze was contemplating with concentration on his face, obviously analyzing the current situation. This man was always good at catching clues. It would be better for her to divert his attention as soon as possible.
Su Li let out a long sigh and said quietly: "Originally, I went to the street today to relax, but I didn't expect that it would cause more trouble. Could it be that I... am I really an ominous person as the rumors say?"
Her tone seemed to be a bit blaming. Dongfangze was slightly surprised and chuckled in amazement: "Su Su is actually so troubled? I always thought that you had a clear mind and understood the world, so you shouldn't be affected by rumors from the outside world. Own
. "
"What can I do if I understand the world?" Su Li said sadly, "Not everyone in this world can be as clear-minded and unscrupulous as the prince. Many times, the effect of rumors is far beyond Our imagination. And people’s destiny will be different because of it.”
Dongfang Ze pondered: "Su Su is referring to... the matter of the candidate list this time?"
It seems that he already knew that she was not on the list! Su Li's heart sank, and she lowered her head and said nothing.
Dongfang Ze sat up and reached out to gently push the hair covering her face behind her ears, revealing the blood-red mark. Su Li's body suddenly froze, somewhat unsure of what he was going to do.
Dongfang Ze stared at the birthmark for a moment, then slowly said: "The difference between good and bad in this world is only relative, it just depends on how you explain it. A truly smart person will not give up any opportunity around him, so that he can Fulfill your purpose.”
Is this a hint that he shouldn't give up this opportunity for him, or is it Dongfang Zhuo's
Su Li's breathing was slightly suffocated, and she couldn't move even half a minute. She could only feel his warm fingertips gently traveling on her left cheek, as if he was repeatedly tracing a pattern. He was not too close to her, but the clean and good-smelling manly scent, along with his sudden and ambiguous movements, filled her senses domineeringly, making it impossible to ignore.
The skin was involuntarily burning with the moving warm touch.
Time seems to be frozen in this moment.
Suddenly, the carriage jolted violently, as if it had hit a rock.
Su Li immediately became alert. Before she could react, she leaned forward and threw herself into Dongfang Ze's arms!
She was startled, and she didn't want to have too close contact with him. She subconsciously waved her arms and blocked him in front of her chest. Dongfang Ze's eyes flashed lightly at this moment, and he stretched out his long arms and wrapped his hands around Su Li's slender waist. With a little force, he brought her into his arms and hugged her tightly.
The irresistible force made Su Li frown. The last time she was in danger during a trip to the lake, he was extremely attached to her and nervous, almost making people think that he was different from her, but in the days that followed, he never once I went to see her, and I happened to see her again today. He called her by her nickname affectionately, and held her hand naturally, as if getting along with her should be so familiar and natural.
. What is this man thinking
Her heart suddenly felt cold, and she pushed him away hard.
Dongfang Ze's face sank slightly, and he noticed her deliberate alienation. His heart sank slightly, but he didn't speak. One hand was still touching the red birthmark, and he smiled lightly and said: "There is a saying, I wonder if Su Su has ever heard of it?"
"What?" She stared straight at him with a pair of bright eyes, defensive, doubtful, and even a little bit of invisible jumping fire.
"Misfortune lies on the back of good fortune, and good fortune lies on the back of misfortune. Good or bad are determined by people, not fate." He looked at her beauty carelessly, as if the ominous red marks under his fingers had leapt into something rare in the world. Auspicious.
Su Li's heart beat wildly.
"Your Majesty, the prime minister's residence has arrived." The voice of the driver outside the carriage brought the two of them back from their thoughts.
Su Li quickly concealed her inner emotions and stood up calmly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for seeing me off. Su Li will go back first." After saying that, he lifted the curtain and got out of the car. He walked a few steps quickly. Just as he was about to step up the stone steps in front of the door, he suddenly felt a sharp force behind him. His gaze sent shivers down her spine. Su Li subconsciously turned around, only to see Wei Shu, Dongfangze's personal bodyguard, sitting on a horse with a respectful posture and a calm and slightly lowered gaze.
Su Li's eyebrows twitched. Wei Shu's eyes seemed to have been seen before somewhere!
Back in the room, she ignored Mo Xiang's anxious questions. The birthmark on her cheek reminded her of something. She eagerly sat in front of the dressing table and carefully examined the face reflected in the bronze mirror.
That face is beautiful and refined, with a pair of cold eyes that are shining brightly. The birthmark on the left cheek is as red as blood and has a strange shape. This... why does it look familiar
She involuntarily approached the bronze mirror, stared at it and thought carefully, and suddenly an idea flashed in her mind! In the phoenix blood jade, the crawling phoenix!
Su Li's heart suddenly moved. He lightly applied rouge and traced the remaining warmth on his cheek with his white and slender fingers. The prototype of a phoenix soaring into the sky suddenly appeared, faintly flowing with shocking light.
