Facing Ning Palace.
The Empress Dowager Wei, upon hearing that Lou Si had gone to the Imperial Study, flew into a rage and smashed everything in the palace. Then, with a fierce air, she led a group of people towards the Imperial Study.
Since that mischievous creature dared not come to see her, she went there herself.
-
Lousi, accompanied by Chu Wei and a few others, just entered the palace when they encountered Zhao Xian. It turned out that it was Lou Zheng who asked him to invite her over.
She immediately knew that it was Lou Zheng who had heard about the events at the General's Residence and was worried that the Empress Dowager Wei at Ning Palace might cause her trouble, so he had sent someone to invite her over first.
She did not refuse either, following Zhao Xian to the Imperial Study.
They said nothing along the way, and soon arrived at the Imperial Study.
Zhao Xian wanted to announce it, but Lousi directly walked in without going through him.
"Ah Zheng."
Lou Zheng looked up, revealing a tender smile, set down the pen in his hand, and walked forward to take her hand naturally.
"How did you sleep last night?"
"Quite well." Lousi did not withdraw her hand. Instead, she let him hold it.
Lou Zheng felt a cold gaze locked on him, and without looking back, he knew who it was.
After a cold glance at Chu Wei, Lou Zheng looked at Lousi with a gentle smile and said, "After ten years, I have some things I want to say to Your Imperial Highness. Please ask your attendants to leave."
As the emperor, he could order Chu Wei and others to leave, but he chose to ask Lousi, which shows how much he values her.
Although she didn't know what he wanted to say to her, Lousi nodded and instructed Chu Wei and Wanxiang to wait outside for her.
Wanxiang bowed to her and retreated outside, while Chu Wei stood motionless in place.
As a man, he naturally understands the look in Lou Zheng's eyes when looking at Lousi. His look was too passionate.
Just based on that alone, he couldn't possibly let them be alone together.
Seeing that he didn't move, Lou Zheng's eyes flashed a cold hint, but his face still smiled gently.
"Prince Ruyue, oh no, it should be called Rúzi now. Prince Rúzi, what are you looking at my imperial sister? Is it possible that I can eat her?"
Though his tone was gentle, the words he spoke were filled with derision.
As if he was saying, "What are you, a mere thing?"
Chu Wei didn't even spare him a glance, turning his head and looking at Lousi with no expression on his face, but those who were familiar with him knew that he was now begging Lousi, asking her not to drive him away.
Lousi pulled her hand back and smiled at Lou Zheng, "He's still young. When he came to Lingjiang, he never left my side. I'll talk to him."
Lou Zheng's hand in his sleeve tightened fiercely, and he smiled, "Good"
Said and done, he glanced at Chu Wei, turned around, and walked away to the side. In the instant of turning, his eyes were so cold and intimidating that they were frightening.
Lousi walked over to Chu Wei, took something out of her chest, and handed it to him, smiling and chatting with him a few words before he nodded and left.
After the door of the Imperial Study was closed, Lousi walked over to Lou Zheng with furrowed brows and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lou Zheng said in a muffled voice, "A Si is so close to him; I'm even jealous."
Lousi ignored his address, smiled, and rubbed his head gently. She said with a trace of helplessness, "You're the emperor now; why are you still being so petulant?"
"Nobody said that once you become the emperor, you cannot be petulant." Lou Zheng smiled gently.
Lousi's smile deepened at the corners of her mouth: "You really are a child at heart."
"That's because of you alone. If it were others, I wouldn't be like this." Lou Zheng raised his head to look at her, his eyes shone so brightly that they looked like they were hiding a starry river.
Lousi's hand in her sleeve tightened a bit more, really wanting to pluck out those beautiful eyes.
Ah Zheng is so handsome; even with two holes, he has a certain charm.
The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. Without realizing it, her hand unconsciously touched his beautiful eyes.
Feeling her hand was a bit cold, Lou Zheng tightened his grip on her hand and smiled gently, "Your hands are so cold. Let me keep you warm."
Lousi was no longer a naive young girl who didn't know what he meant by his action.
A barely noticeable smile curved her lips. She pulled her hand back and took a step back, creating some distance between them. Her voice was a bit flustered as she said, "I'm not cold."
Lou Zheng maintained the same gesture from before, silently watching her without a word.
Lousi avoided his intense gaze, turned around, and said, "The empress dowager is still waiting for me. I'll go first."
As soon as she finished speaking, her wrist was grabbed by someone as she lifted her foot, and then she was pulled over with a powerful force.
Lousi's lips curled up slightly, feigning fear as she said, "Ah Zheng, what are you doing this for?"
"Don't be afraid of me." Lou Zheng said in a low voice, "A Si, don't be afraid. I don't like Chu Wei. Could you kill him for me?"
"If you're reluctant to kill him, I'll do it myself."
He had intended to give Lousi some more time, but as she had just pulled her hand back and taken a step back, it reminded him of the sound he had heard coming from Lousi's room yesterday. He couldn't help but wonder if Chu Wei was around, whether she would have pulled her hand back.
The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't help but want to kill Chu Wei and keep Lousi all to himself, so that she would be solely his.
Lousi remained silent, her body shivering slightly, and her eyes sparkling with undeniable excitement.
She had originally intended to pull Lou Zheng into a abyss, but now there was no need for that.
Because Lou Zheng has already been in the abyss.
Lou Zheng couldn't see her expression and thought she was crying. He became anxious and said, "A Si, don't cry. If you don't want to kill him, don't do it. Don't cry, will you?"
Lousi's shoulders were trembling severely, and she was biting her lip tightly, afraid of laughing out loud from too much excitement.
"Don't cry, I won't kill him anymore." Lou Zheng suddenly became confused, and even began to regret that he had been too eager and frightened her.
Lousi, hearing the fear in his voice, smiled more deeply at the corners of her lips. She then looked up at him with tears in her eyes.
"A Zheng, don't be like this; I'm scared."
Lou Zheng tenderly reached out to wipe away her tears on her face, and whispered softly, "Don't be afraid, A Si. Don't be afraid of me. If you like him, keep him. Don't kill him."
Since she couldn't bear to do it, he would just let it be.
After all, he was just a prince of a fallen kingdom now. Even if there was a real contest, he had no chance of winning.
Lousi didn't say anything, and leaned her head on his shoulder. She unconsciously licked her lips, and couldn't help but want to taste what his blood tasted like.
Lou Zheng gently tapped her back and whispered softly, "Can't you be a bit less afraid of me?"
Lousi pulled herself back to reality, raised her red-eyed gaze to look at him, and said, "Then don't scare me like this anymore."
"Okay." Lou Zheng tenderly picked up her face, looking at the lip that was bitten and bled.
Lousi almost subconsciously wanted to respond to him, but she held herself back and reached out to push him away.
Just a moment ago, the door of the Imperial Study was pushed open from the outside, followed by a loud roar.
"What are you doing!"
