Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 611 Love and the Throne

"Not only do I want to break up with you, but I also want to leave the capital and disappear from now on! Does Your Highness want to punish me with death?"

Li Xuanye's back tensed, and he suddenly raised his head: "Disappeared?"

The cold wind came suddenly, Zhao Xiwei only felt his chin go cold, and it was pinched by his protruding hand.

The man's strength was as heavy as iron, and his tender skin suddenly turned red.

Zhao Xiwei looked into his eyes, and his heart tightened again.

As the crown prince who is highly valued and favored by the emperor, he is calm in planning and planning in most cases, and is rarely provoked to such an extent. He looks anxious and cold like this, like a red-eyed beast. At any time, it is possible to tear the prey to pieces.

Zhao Xiwei didn't want to confront him like this, so he lowered his eyelashes, avoided his gaze slightly, and said, "What Your Highness needs is a pet, and I don't want to be that pet..."

As soon as the words came out, the fingers pinching her chin lifted again: "Zhao Xiwei!"

He sipped in a deep voice, his tone tried his best to restrain himself, but the strength of his fingertips increased unconsciously, "Do you think you are a pet? I love you and protect you, but you actually think you are a pet?"

The raw pain was accompanied by a faint murderous aura, Zhao Xi frowned slightly and did not speak.

He also realized that he had acted hard, his eyes glanced at her somewhat red and swollen chin, but he didn't let go, he only asked with a sneer: "Because you think you are a pet, so you have to leave me and the East Palace, right?"

A burst of sour gas rushed straight to his throat, Zhao Xiwei subconsciously covered his mouth, but because his chin was pinched, he could only cover the corners of his lips.

Suddenly, she didn't know whether it was stomachache or heartache, so she couldn't help but retorted: "Yeah! I don't want to be locked up in a remote courtyard by you anymore! I don't want to be watched by your people anymore! I don't want to be concealed like a fool -"

His eyes became hot, and tears welled up quietly, "Li Xuanye, I want to be a normal person and live a normal life, can't I?"

But she didn't want to show a little fragility in front of him, and she didn't want him to see through her emotions at this moment, so she ruthlessly held back her tears.

The almond eyes were reddish, covered with water vapor, staring at him so resolutely made him feel pain in his heart.

"Wei'er..." He loosened his fingers suddenly, and his fingertips slid along her jaw and landed on the side of her neck.

Across a table, he stood opposite her, his fingertips stroking her skin, with a sense of guilt and nostalgia.

He looked at the red marks on her chin, his eyes flickered slightly, and said softly: "You don't like being locked up in the side courtyard, I will let you move back to the main hall as soon as possible, give me some time, wait..."

There was a sudden pause in his tone, before he was about to say something, he just swallowed it back.

What should he say?
Tell her that Zhao Ziyi and Shen Yuqing are suspected of teaming up to murder the queen?
Tell her that what he is doing now is just a delaying measure, and he will still investigate in the future?

No matter which answer, it will be irreversible harm to her.

But with her clear eyes, he felt that it was too cruel not to say anything.

After hesitating for a moment, he said softly: "When I regain the military power, you won't have to suffer this kind of grievance—"

The military power is firmly held by the Empress Dowager, and more than [-] enemies on the border are watching. Every year, money from the national treasury is filled into the hole of Xiliang like flowing water, and there is no need to plan any other big plans.

The military power is suppressed, and the Liangzhou army cannot be commanded to fight, so the stability of the border cannot be determined.

Unable to determine the stability of the border, they have to spend a large amount of military pay every year.

And a large amount of military pay will drain the treasury.

This is a means of raising bandits created by the Empress Dowager in order to gain power. Although it is contemptible, it is very effective-as long as the military power is not handed over, the operation of the entire empire will always rely on her instructions.

Where the military power is, there is the throne.

And love needs power to protect.

If he doesn't secure the throne and only indulges in love, he will only make her suffer together - such as now.

And after he has fully grasped the power, even if the Zhao family has ambitions, even if Zhao Ziyi has a conspiracy, but he holds the military power, what is there to be afraid of?At that time, he made it clear that he favored the woman he loved, so what's the matter?
……

A chuckle broke his thoughts.

Zhao Xi looked at him slightly: "When you regain the military power, when you inherit the great rule, and when you rule the prosperous world, you will be able to join hands with me in raising the case, won't you?" "Li Xuanye, since I have decided to abolish my position, let's let it go, okay?"

Li Xuanye choked suddenly, not knowing how to answer.

In fact, he thinks so. The love of children is important, but Huang Tu's hegemony is also very important.

The prince of a country, if there is only love in his heart and no world, what can he promise for the future?
Just questioning her disheartenedly still made him feel a little distressed.

He raised his other hand, held her cheeks in both hands, his tone was full of guilt, and whispered: "It's my fault... I can't give you everything you deserve..."

In the middle of the quarrel, the anger he was about to express was suddenly suppressed, and he lowered his posture so quickly. Zhao Xiwei couldn't adapt to the change so quickly, so he held his face like this, just staring blankly at him. he.

"Since you also suspect that you are pregnant, how can you still think about leaving the East Palace and me?"

pregnant...

When these two words came to his ears, Zhao Xiwei was instantly refreshed.

She raised her hand to hold his finger, took it off her face, then took half a step back and looked at him defensively: "Who said I was pregnant?" Her voice froze, and she said hurriedly, "Even if I'm pregnant, so it's impossible for me to be trapped in the East Palace by you!"

"Zhao Xiwei!" He tensed his voice, gritted his teeth and shouted, "Don't be so willful!"

Willful again!
After being put on such a hat by two men in one day, Zhao Xiwei felt the thorn in his heart suddenly poked out again.

"Yeah, I'm self-willed, so what?" She stood a few steps away from him, looking at him coldly, "You can just keep it from me, let me be deprived of my position like a fool, let me be like a fool." Imprisoned in the deep palace like a bird, you have a reason for everything you do, and you have to be considered, and as long as I don't cooperate a little bit, I am self-willed and ignorant?"

"Zhao Xiwei!" Li Xuanye called out heavily, reminding: "Don't forget your identity!"

As soon as the words came out, there was a moment of silence.

In the past, she could be reprimanded as a princess, but now...

Zhao Xiwei obviously thought of this, and sneered: "Yes, you have reminded me many times to pay attention to the identity of the princess. But—"

Her tone was firm, "I am a human being, a living person with my own feelings and thoughts, not an empty shell, and I cannot do whatever you want."

She glanced at him, saw that there was a struggle between his brows and eyes, and her heart softened suddenly.
