A scorching light kept dancing in the man's eyes. Even on such a night, it could force her not to look directly. Su Li wanted to turn her head away in embarrassment, but he reached out to stop him.
.
Holding her delicate chin with his slender fingers, he raised her face and kissed her lips quickly.
Su Li's delicate body suddenly trembled. This kiss was completely different from the overbearing and eager kiss in the hot spring pool. His kiss at this moment was so gentle that people couldn't bear to refuse. And her lips are still so beautiful that people want to taste them again and again, and towards the end they don't want to let go.
Unconsciously, she recalled the blushing and heart-pounding scene in the hot spring pool. Thinking of the passionate entanglement between the two people driven by lust, Su Li's face quickly turned red. It was clear that the desire she had at that time had already retreated, but she did not have the strength to push him away. Perhaps it was because he knew that in his current physical condition, he would not be able to do anything to harm her excessively.
The moonlight is like water, the night is quiet and peaceful, and the surrounding atmosphere is full of ambiguity and warmth. And such a night makes people fall involuntarily.
The throbbing in my heart was uncontrollable. His magical fingers wandered over the back of her slender neck, caressing her gently, making her body soft like a puddle of spring water.
Su Li's hands couldn't help but climb onto his shoulders, unconsciously condoning his sweet intrusion. When the hot lips and tongue slid all the way down from the white neck, and were about to reach the proud height, Dongfang Ze suddenly gasped and pushed her away violently.
He can't continue, otherwise he will really lose control! Dongfang Ze cursed lowly and turned around in annoyance, while Su Li sat stiffly on the ground, trying her best to adjust her disordered breathing.
Both of them calmed down their heartbeats and emotions as quickly as possible.
No one spoke for a long time, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Dongfangze looked up at the sky, wondering what he was thinking, and was stunned. Su Li looked down at her feet. Everything that happened tonight felt like a dream.
"King Zhenning." Su Li thought for a while and took the lead to break the silence, deliberately calling his title and deliberately creating distance.
Dongfangze frowned, looking at her with a faint light still dancing in his eyes. He whispered in a hoarse voice: "Call my name."
Su Li's face felt feverish unconsciously, and he hesitated: "This... is not in line with etiquette."
He gently held her hand, with a smile in his eyes: "You have already shouted several times, why do you care about whether it is polite or not?"
Su Li's heart skipped a beat. She just called him by his first name in a hurry. How could she have thought so much
. I wanted to pull my hand back, but he held it tightly, so I had to shout: "Your Majesty!"
"Call my name!" Dongfang Ze's handsome face was already in front of her, only a finger away from her lips, his black eyes sparkling with seductive light.
Su Li couldn't control the throbbing in her heart. The residual warmth of the kiss just now seemed to be burned into her heart. She hurriedly turned her head and said, "Okay, Dongfang Ze, I want to know what happened tonight..."
"I also want to know who did what happened tonight!" Dongfangze responded before she could finish her words, and the aura around him became familiar and cold again.
Su Li was stunned for a moment, feeling that the gentle man just now seemed to have suddenly disappeared. When he turned around, he returned to the image of the powerful, powerful and profound King Zhenning! Feeling a little blocked for no reason, she raised her head, looked at him coldly and said, "It's the back mountain you invited me to!"
That's what happened after going up the mountain, and then Dongfang Zhuo appeared. This was obviously not a coincidence! So, if you want her and him to cook together in that situation, and then let Dongfang Zhuo see it, who will benefit from such a design
Dongfang Ze turned to look at her. Unlike the frail and weak person she had been in his arms just now, she had completely returned to her usual indifference and calmness. She could analyze things calmly and was full of suspicion and wariness of everyone around her.
"Do you doubt me?" He lowered his eyes slightly, with no emotion on his face.
Su Li said: "I don't want to doubt you, but at that time, apart from you and me, the only one who appeared in the back mountain was Dongfang Zhuo!" She frowned, this thing was really weird, and she also knew that Dongfang Ze should not be a Someone who knows how to use this method, and what's more, his strange behavior at that time doesn't seem to be a fake at all. If it was really him, why did he let her go at a critical moment? Her thoughts were spinning, and she paused for a moment. Something flashed through her mind. She was startled for a moment, and suddenly she looked solemn and asked him, "Who else has climbed the mountain before me?"
Dongfang Ze suddenly smiled, "You are very smart!"
His smile had no warmth. Su Li could almost guess who it was through his expression. She felt her heart beating fast and frowned unconsciously and asked: "Then you and her..."
"Of course nothing will happen between me and her! Otherwise, within three days, everyone in Kyoto will know that I, Dongfang Ze, have an affair with the eldest lady of the Xiangfu, and by then I will not be able to marry her! And you , and the second emperor brother will become the witnesses of this affair.
! " Dongfangze snorted disdainfully, but Su Li was frightened and her expression changed several times.
"Why?" She asked in a low voice unconsciously, sounding like she had no idea, but Dongfang Ze understood. He looked at her and smiled: "A man can only have good self-control when facing a woman he doesn't like."
Su Li was shocked and looked at him blankly, not daring to think about the meaning behind his words.
In that dark secret passage before, she could put aside her scruples to find the mechanism control button for him, and he could block arrows for her at all costs. At that time, they had no distracting thoughts, no consideration of the reasons, no care of the consequences, but once they left the danger After returning to their original positions, they became Princess Mingxi and Prince Zhenning who were always on guard and calculating! Could there be pure love between two people like them
For some reason, her heart suddenly hurt so much that she raised her head and asked calmly: "If you find out who did this, what will you do?"
Dongfangze didn't answer, his face was terrifyingly gloomy.
Yes, who would like to be plotted against, especially someone like him! Su Li felt a little uneasy. After all, this incident happened in the Su family's villa, and it was related to Su Qin. Maybe the person who devised this plan had something to do with the Su family! And although that incident was aimed at Dongfangze, if it really happened, what would it mean? Maybe the husband selection banquet was canceled because of this, and she would have no choice but to marry Dongfang Zhuo. That kind of result was definitely not what she wanted!
Who planned this? Su Qin probably didn't have the courage or the brains. Dongfang Zhuo obviously didn't know... Su Li thought of Mrs. Su who suddenly fell ill before going out... Could it be too much of a coincidence? But since the target is Dongfang Ze and Su Qin, why does her body also have problems
"This matter...how does the prince plan to investigate?"
"What do you think?"
"Start with the food!"
It coincided with what he thought, Dongfang Ze said: "After I go back, I will leave this matter to you, and I will ask Sheng Qin to assist. Remember, never alert the snake. This matter may be more complicated than you think. Yes, it’s more complicated!”
Su Li nodded. She didn't delve into what he meant by being more complicated. She was just worried that if it was really found to be Mrs. Su's fault, would the entire Prime Minister's Mansion be implicated
As if seeing through her worries, Dongfangze smiled lightly and said: "Don't worry, as long as the Prime Minister is not involved in this matter, I will not let this matter affect the entire Prime Minister's Mansion.
! "
Su Li remembered that Su Xiangru was his supporter. If something happened to the prime minister's house, it would be no good for him. Only then did he feel relieved, took out the square of white silk from his arms, considered it carefully and asked: "Your Majesty asked someone to bring this, what is the purpose of it?"
Dongfangze glanced at her and said, "I thought you knew."
Su Li frowned and looked at him in confusion. Dongfang Ze said thoughtfully, "If you really don't know this thing, you can go back and ask the girl next to you. Maybe she will know it."
Su Li was shocked, what did he mean? Could it be that he has found out Wan Xin’s identity? Or did she show off her Qinggong skills in the secret passage and easily find the location of the control mechanism, which made him suspicious? Or maybe it confirmed some of his guesses...
"You don't have to be nervous." As if he could see through her thoughts, Dongfang Ze suddenly held her hand and said with a smile, "The leader of the Shen Clan is dead, and the Shen Clan's power has basically collapsed. As long as the remaining people stay safe, I will not I plan to pursue it further.”
Aren't you going to pursue the case? Su Li lowered her head and glanced at the silk in her hand... her heart became heavier. This thing is clearly from Shenmen, how did it fall into Dongfangze's hands
"This thing belongs to Wei Shu, one of the four killers of Shenmen!" Dongfang Ze's eyes were filled with cold light.
Wei Shu? Su Li was stunned, was he the person from Shenmen lurking next to him? It turns out he is a left-handed swordsman! Then isn't this clue broken again
Su Li asked strangely: "I heard that the identities of people in Shenmen have always been secretive. Even the four killers themselves don't know each other. How do you know that he is one of the four killers?"
"He has been with me for three years. I have known for a long time that he has an extraordinary identity, so I have to be wary of everything. I was assassinated a few months ago, and it was his careful deployment." Dongfang Ze said expressionlessly, "Since that encounter, I I kept an eye on him everywhere and found that this man's sword skills with his left hand were stronger than those with his right hand. I knew that he was hiding it intentionally. Half a year later, when he was in contact with the master of Shen Clan, I finally discovered him. Then I made a plan to lure them out. Take action and capture again."
Su Li was startled. Since he suspected Wei Shu, he naturally wanted to investigate. I just didn't expect that his investigation would go so smoothly. It seems that Wei Shu had not been with him for long, and he underestimated him, so he used him to annihilate Shen Men in one fell swoop. Thinking of the danger at Wangyue Lake, Su Li suddenly shuddered.
Seeing her sudden silence, Dongfangze seemed to see through her thoughts and said softly: "The trip to Wangyue Lake is indeed a plan for me to lure the enemy.
. If I take you on board alone, they will think they have an opportunity. It's just... I didn't expect to meet the second emperor brother so coincidentally. "
Su Li looked at him sharply, "Do you think... the killer was sent by him?"
Dongfang Ze's eyebrows were raised, and the fierce murderous aura disappeared in a flash, and Su Li couldn't help but shudder again.
He lowered his eyes, regained his calm and calm expression, and said calmly: "It is not yet known who ordered the killer. It is said that there is a booklet in Shen Men's secret room, which records in detail every transaction that Shen Men has taken. Business, I originally wanted to get this thing, but I was preempted by someone. When I arrived at the secret room, all the secrets in Shenmen had been taken away!" Dongfang Ze's thick eyebrows were furrowed, and his eyes were deep and serious. sharp.
Record book? Is it that book full of strange symbols? That thing is now in Su Li's hand, but it's a pity that no one can understand it.
"If you find that booklet, can you find out who wants to kill you?" Su Li frowned and asked, "What if..."
"What if?" Dongfang Ze's smile has not diminished, but his eyes have turned cold.
Su Li sighed and didn't speak for a while. Struggles for imperial power have existed since ancient times. Are there more than one or two blood relatives in the royal family who plot and kill each other? Now that the crown prince has not yet been established, the overt and covert struggle between Dongfang Ze and Dongfang Zhuo is tacitly understood both inside and outside the court. Although Dongfang Zhuo was the eldest son, he did not seek many benefits from the emperor. Dongfang Ze's mother was favored by the emperor during her lifetime. Therefore, although Ze was a commoner, she was highly valued by the emperor because of her outstanding talents, and she had the potential to surpass Dongfang Zhuo. It would not be surprising at all if Dongfang Zhuo wanted to harm Dongfang Ze because of this. It's just that they were on a boat that day, and the two brothers shared the same hatred, but it didn't seem like they were acting.
Dongfangze said coldly: "Everyone knows about my fight with the Second Emperor Brother. Even if I doubt him, it's not surprising. The marriage between the Prince Regent's Palace and Prince Jing'an's Palace had an accident, and Princess Mingyu died tragically. Many people also suspected it. It was me who was the one who got in the way. Humph! I also want to know who is so bold as to dare to pay someone to assassinate the princess of Dongfang Zhuo!"
Su Li's heart ached. In the struggle for imperial power, every detail may lead to unpredictable consequences. No wonder he went to the Regent's Palace to pay her respects that day, presumably to find out whether Li Su committed suicide or was killed, right? Even Dongfangze knew that he suspected the cause of her death, why didn't Dongfang Zhuo and her father suspect it? When she thought of her father, she suddenly felt uncomfortable. He couldn't help lowering his eyes and asked: "Power, is it really that good? In order to get it, you can even ignore family ties?"
Dongfang Ze laughed mockingly and said slowly: "Family love? If it is in the homes of ordinary people, maybe it is there. But in the royal family, it has never been an important thing.
. For the prince, he has the supreme right. Only by obtaining it and controlling it can he be qualified to live. "
Some are cruel, some are helpless, and some are sad.
Su Li was startled, turned to look at him, and found that his expression was the same as his tone, indifferent, without any emotional fluctuations.
"My mother... is actually an indifferent and peaceful person." Perhaps the words just touched his heart, Dongfangze suddenly talked about his life experience.
"Because of my father's favor, I have become a thorn in the eyes of some people since I was born. What the women in the harem are best at is killing people without blood. The conspiracies and intrigues that are everywhere around us are hard to guard against! Mother and concubine, in order to I had repeatedly given in and almost moved into the cold palace. Although... She loved my father very much. She also thought that he really loved her, but she didn't know the emperor's affection. She was as frivolous as paper and couldn't stand the test at all. … There was never a shortage of fresh women in the harem. My father soon had a new favorite. The queen and her party took the opportunity to suppress my mother’s family. In just one month, my mother experienced the defeat of the family and the tragic death of my father and brother. And I, That’s when I was pushed into a deep lake that was already covered with thin ice! I was five years old at the time.”
He looked up at the distant sky, seemingly lost in memories.
Su Li was frightened when she heard this. She inhaled involuntarily and couldn't help but ask, "Who saved you?"
"No one rescued me. I swam up from the icy lake on my own!" His angular lips were slightly raised, and his smile was mocking but without warmth.
Su Li couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart. Such a life-and-death struggle seemed ordinary to him. It was conceivable that what he had experienced should be far more than that.
"You...can you swim at such a young age?" She was surprised. When she was five years old, she was still acting coquettishly in her father's arms, unaware that people's hearts are sinister and things in the world are unpredictable.
Dongfang Ze said: "When I was three years old, I accidentally saw one of my brothers being pushed into a well and drowned. So I not only learned how to swim, but also practiced breath-holding kung fu extremely well. Apart from me and Mother and concubine, no one else knows, so I can escape."
So that’s it, no wonder his water properties are so good! Su Li sighed deeply. She always thought that he was a terrifyingly powerful person. He was very powerful at a young age, but he didn't know that he was trained like this! She should also look for opportunities to learn to swim and overcome her own weaknesses.
Dongfangze continued: "Since then, the mother-in-law has also understood a truth. If we are in the harem and cannot get that person's protection, and just give in blindly, our mother and son will be dead in that dangerous palace.
! So she began to think of ways to win back my father's heart, and I also worked harder to practice martial arts, hoping that I would become strong soon and be able to protect my mother without having to rely on anyone. But... she still couldn't wait until that day and left after all! "
His tone still sounded calm and indifferent, but the deep sorrow and regret could not be concealed from his deep eyes, dyeing this hot summer night with a bit of sadness and sadness.
Su Li had never seen Dongfang Ze like this before, and never dared to imagine that he would have such a side. The more powerful a person looks, the easier it is to infect others when he reveals his sadness. Su Li looked at him, as if she saw herself alone every night. Every time she thought of her mother and concubine, she felt so painful and blamed herself.
There was no comfort, no tears due to sympathy for the same illness. She looked at him quietly, saying nothing and doing nothing. She knew that all he needed was someone to listen quietly and accompany him silently. She didn't have to lower her head to see that his lonely shadow was cast at his feet by the moonlight, just like her lonely and ununderstood mood every night.
The surrounding atmosphere became calmer and quieter.
Dongfangze didn't know why he told her this. He was not someone who would easily reveal his feelings to others and talk about the past, especially when it came to his mother. When he turned his eyes and saw the distress in the woman's eyes, and the understanding that felt like her own, his heart suddenly trembled, an inexplicable soreness and pain, accompanied by a rare satisfaction, instantly filled with all that he had ever felt. I thought my heart was closed.
Laughing silently.
This night seems not as dark as before. The injuries on his body no longer seemed to be so painful.
The moonlight shines on the two of them, and the silvery white light seems to be dyed with intoxicating warmth by the summer heat. He gently held her hand, and the two of them waited for the dawn together, but hoped that it would not light up so early.
When the first ray of sunshine in the morning appeared in the east, Su Li slowly opened her eyes. At some point, she fell asleep in his arms. As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Dongfangze's handsome face, close at hand, with his eyes closed, and his pale face was almost transparent. He talked so much last night and spent a lot of energy. Su Li knew that he was seriously injured and had to find a way to return to the villa quickly to seek medical treatment.
She patted his face gently, and as soon as she touched his cheek, he suddenly hugged her.
"Ah!" Su Li couldn't help but exclaimed softly.
"Are you awake?" His low and gentle voice was right next to his ears, exuding a sultry warmth.
.
"Yes." Su Li moved an inch unnaturally, "It's daybreak. Let's find a way. Let's find a way out of here quickly."
"Okay." His dark eyes stayed on her face, and he stood up with support.
Su Li carefully supported him and began to look at the surrounding terrain. This is actually a long and narrow valley, with a small lake not far away, shimmering in the morning light. The terrain due east is relatively stable and there should be a way out.
"Go east." Dongfangze's deep voice was full of confidence. He and she actually thought of the same thing. Su Li's heartbeat inexplicably accelerated a bit. She suddenly discovered that after an incident last night, the man next to her was no longer the Zhenning Wang Dongfangze who had nothing to do with her.
Wei Shu and he were enemies rather than friends. With his pride, it was indeed impossible for him to do such a despicable thing as killing Li Su! Su Li felt a hundred emotions in her heart, one happy and one sad. The good news is that he is really not the one who harmed her. The bad thing is that the clues have been cut off and it is not easy to reverse the case.
The two people walked slowly towards the east. Dongfangze's face was extremely tense and he had to stop every few steps. Su Li wiped her sweat and said, "How are you doing? Why don't you wait here and I'll get someone to come!"
He hugged her waist tightly, leaned against her body, and said with a faint smile: "I don't want to stay here alone. Su Su, don't worry about leaving me alone?" The tone was very calm, but Su Li heard it. There was a slight dissatisfaction in the voice, and there was also a hint of barely detectable nervousness.
Instinctively, her waist stiffened a little, but she couldn't bear to push him away: "Then let's walk slowly."
After walking like this for nearly an hour, the two of them staggered out of the valley. A road appeared not far ahead. Su Li finally said happily: "Great, there is a road!"
Suddenly, the sound of rapid horse hooves came from the front, and a group of people galloped in from a distance. The person in front had a stern and gloomy face, but his expression was anxious. He was running forward, looking left and right, his eyes eager and nervous, clearly looking for someone.
When Su Li saw him, her eyes immediately turned cold. The person coming was none other than Dongfang Zhuo, who knocked the two of them off the cliff last night!
He also knew how to bring people to find them!
