Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 646 Farewell
Even if it is the closest person, he will not believe what the other party says.

"You have to do all the acting. A smart person like Your Highness doesn't know that I did it on purpose? Frankly speaking, His Highness decided to let me go because he saw through my thoughts?" She flicked her sleeves, He sat down opposite, and said in an unhappy tone, "Li Xuanye, do you want to take me back?"

Li Xuanye laughed angrily: "I just asked a question, and you just said so many things to block me." His eyes moved slightly, obviously still did not give up doubting her, "If you really have What? Huh?"

He stared at her, his eyes seemed to have a net, sucking her down inch by inch, and his words became softer and softer, like sticky honey, sticking to her wandering thoughts: "Wei'er, what's the matter with you?" It is our two children, I am the father of the child, and you are the mother of the child, how can I let you live outside?"

Zhao Xiwei's heart skipped a beat.

Such a gentle him is still a bit irresistible.

but……

It was one thing to be irresistible, but it seemed impossible for her to fall for it again.

One cannot fall several times in the same trap.

"You can't let me wander outside..." Zhao Xiwei repeated these words, smiled, and asked calmly, "Then His Highness wants to come to a golden house?"

"..." Li Xuanye straightened his lips instantly.

Zhao Xiwei suddenly felt a little empty in his heart.

After all, he still can't do it...

That's it.

Instead of letting him know the truth and being in a dilemma, it is better to keep him in the dark forever!

Her eyes were bent, and she smiled brightly and slyly: "Your Highness, there is no better way, right?"

Li Xuanye's heart choked.

She didn't want to stay with him like a pet, and he couldn't give her the identity she deserved.

This is the sticking point between them.

Her smile became stronger, and she continued to ask: "If I didn't leave, but accepted your arrangement, and continued to stay by your side as the abolished princess, what would you do to not let me go?" Disappointment, won't it make me feel wronged? Can you guarantee that I won't have any loss?"

A strand of hair fell down, half covering her eyes.

He raised his hand and gently pushed it away, looked into her eyes, and after a while, finally smiled wryly, and said, "I can't."

On this issue, he couldn't and couldn't pretend to be stupid.

The promise has been said too many times, but everyone knows that the future is very uncertain.

There are so many things between the two of them, unless he gives up everything for her and allows the court to be turbulent, just to stay with her for the rest of his life.

He asked himself that he couldn't do it.

Not only that, if the truth behind that old incident is found out, if Zhao Ziyi is really the main messenger who framed the queen, then he will definitely deal with the Zhao family according to the situation and reason.

This is also the main reason why he chose to let go.

Only by letting go now will it not be too embarrassing in the future.

"Since this is the case, why should His Highness bother you to ask the truth?"

He was silent for a while, reached out to pick up the teapot on the table, poured a cup of tea, put it in front of her first, and poured another cup for himself.

He picked up the teacup and put it to his lips, but he was not in a hurry to drink it. He just looked at the cup through the dense tea steam and said slowly: "I came to you today not to ask the truth, but because I have something to ask." tell you."

Zhao Xiwei didn't dare to look at him anymore.

In order to hide his guilty conscience, he only held the tea and lowered his eyelashes, and asked softly, "What's the matter?"

"I want to go to Xiliang."

A short sentence made her shrink her fingers suddenly, she raised her eyes, full of shock: "What?"

Although she had known for a long time that he was preparing to attack Xiliang, she didn't know that his plan was to personally lead the army to attack.

"You..." She heard her tone tense, and thousands of words rushed into her throat, and finally fell silent for a moment, and changed into three words, "Why?"

There is nothing to say about being reluctant, she is no longer someone to him.

But it's okay to ask questions.

"If I said it was for you, would you stay?" He really wanted to ask her that.

But when the words came to his lips, and meeting her gaze, he swallowed them back forcefully.

She wasn't a silly little girl who only had love in her heart.

On the contrary, she is very clear, even when the relationship between the two is the best, she is very calm.

Yes, he decided to go out in person in order to regain his military power and give her an answer this morning.

Although it's for her, isn't it also for himself?

Moved her with such words, and finally made her stay in the deep palace, just to wait for his uncertain future?
This is indeed a bit too sorry for her.

After thinking for a while, he slowly said: "Father is seriously ill again."

Zhao Xiwei's pupils shrank. The news shocked her more than hearing that he was going to go to war. With a sway of her arm, the tea almost spilled out. Her voice was a little hurried: "Your Majesty is sick?"

The emperor's health has not been very good, but no matter how bad it is, it has been dragging on like this.

As long as there is such a person sitting on that dragon chair, those people who are about to move, no matter how impatient they are, they can only bear it.

But the sudden aggravation of the condition indicates that it is possible at any time...

Can the coveted Queen Mother let go of this opportunity?

Although Li Xuanye has his own influence, but the military power is not in his hands, it means that he may be manipulated at any time.

She held the teacup tightly, trying to stabilize her emotions, and asked, "What did the imperial doctor say?"

After asking, I realized that this was a bit redundant.

If the imperial physician could find a solution, why would Li Xuanye be in such a hurry.

He frowned, not as fragile as she imagined, and only whispered: "If we can survive the first half of the year, there may be a turning point..."

Zhao Xiwei murmured: "Half a year...now it's mid-February..."

She clenched her heart tightly and felt cold sweat breaking out on her back, "In other words, the time left for His Highness is less than four months?"

She leaned her back in the chair and said softly, "In these four months, Your Highness must take down Xiliang and seize military power, so that the Queen Mother can completely give up..." The more she said, the more frightened she became.

In four months, it is too difficult to fight a battle that cannot be defeated.

Moreover, it is also necessary to maintain the stability of the court, and there must be no distraction from the slightest turmoil.

"Yes." Li Xuanye said in a low voice, "To be precise, it's only three months."

Zhao Xi was slightly startled.

She was clearly sitting in the bright lobby, with the spring sunshine shining in, but she still felt the darkness and coldness of the storm-ravaged city.

Li Xuanye saw through her nervousness, gently stretched out his hand, held her wrist on the long table, and said solemnly, "I'm looking for you today because I have something to tell you."

"You say." Zhao Xiwei moved his fingers, wanting to touch and break free, and finally chose to let him hold it like this, without moving.

"I've already arranged everything in court. It's just you—"

His eyes darkened, and his tone was slightly worried, "If I leave, the Empress Dowager will definitely come out and make trouble. She may not be able to shake the front court for the time being, but the harem is still under her control."
