Conquering the country and seeking the empress

Chapter 52

In Zhuju, fallen leaves were flying, one after another slowly falling on the dry ground, rubble, and table; Gao Shu retreated to the eaves after serving tea, and looked at the two people on the high platform with a pair of watery eyes.

The fragrance of tea diffuses in the air and draws into the lungs.

"Mister's tea looks very good." Luo Rongye's slender fingers rubbed against the teacup, his lowered eyes showed no emotion.

"You didn't drink it, so how would you know if it's good or not?" Mo Jincheng smiled gently, his eyes wide open.

Luo Rongye raised his brows slightly, and suddenly, he picked up the teacup and put it in front of his nose; after a careful sniff, he took a sip; there was a bitter taste in his throat, bitter to his heart, Luo Rongye's amber eyes looked at Mo Jincheng , There was a trace of disdain at the corner of his mouth.

"Mister's reputation has reached my father's ears. You may be able to make a fortune in the future, this tea." After a pause, he pushed the tea aside. "It could be better."

"Really? But I think it's already very good." After Mo Jincheng finished speaking, he took a sip with his usual expression.

"Isn't this tea bitter?" He frowned in disbelief.

"This tea is not bitter, but a little sweet." Mo Jincheng poured another cup, as if it was delicious, causing Luo Rongye's eyes to flash with surprise. "It's just that you're not used to drinking."

Luo Rongye has a noble status, his mother is a queen, and there is a general's mansion behind him. In everyone's mind, he is the person most likely to aspire to the throne; but because of this status, he has developed an aloof character.

"You know who I am?" Luo Rongye picked up the teacup again and took a sip.

This time he drank it, it was still the same bitterness, but after the bitterness, there was a hint of sweetness; he took another sip under Mo Jincheng's half-smiling eyes, but it didn't have the same sweetness as before, and some were just sweeter than before. heavy suffering.

"In this imperial city, the most arrogant person belongs to His Royal Highness King Shuo."

Luo Rongye's eyes deepened. "You are so bold."

"Really? I can be more courageous." She has never backed down since she was a child, and this time, she is the same, and she will not back down.

She was born as a shadow, and the loneliness and killing in the Hall of Two Lives made her numb. She didn't understand why they were brothers and sisters, but why they had to kill each other. She didn't understand, those people wanted her to die, as if it was a matter of course, but But she killed one person, and everyone looked at her with hatred, as if she was a sinner.

Mo Jincheng lowered his eyes to hide his fluctuating emotions.

"You dare to talk to me like that." Luo Rongye's tone sank, and he seemed to want to blame; but there was a strange feeling in his heart, he was not angry when this person dared to talk to him like that, but found it funny.

"You are lonely, are you afraid?" Mo Jincheng opened his eyes, and the alienated eyes were mixed with a trace of complexity; Luo Rongye couldn't understand, but his heart felt a little lonely and scared; this was the first time he had encountered this feeling, But he seemed to have seen those eyes just now, but he couldn't remember.

Seeing Mo Jincheng get off the high platform and walk towards the house, Luo Rongye turned over and got off the high platform, seeing that delicate and cold figure enter the room, Luo Rongye couldn't express the feeling in his heart.

"Master, what's the matter with you." The subordinate approached and called out a little puzzled.

"Matsuna, has this king forgotten something?" He seemed to have seen that look just now!
"Ah! Master, have you forgotten something?" Matsuna was startled, obviously curious.

Luo Rongye didn't speak, and turned to leave, but when he passed the high platform, his eyes fell on the cup of tea he had drunk, and after a long time, he left the bamboo house.

"Young Master, that...Young Master, left." Gao Shu looked at the closed door and said; but she was still a little worried. The feeling that Young Master gave her just now made her feel scared and distressed.

"Understood, I'm tired, you should rest earlier." Mo Jincheng's calm voice came from the room, Gao Shu pursed her lips, and stopped talking; now it's daytime, why is she resting?But today son, he might be really tired.

After thinking about it, Gao Shu silently exited the door.

In the room, Mo Jincheng stood in front of the window, looking at the swaying green bamboos outside the window, with a tear streaming from his calm eyes.

Only she knew that the tears were not shed.

The sentence just now was what Qu Qingmo wanted to say, what she wanted to say a long time ago.

The scene of Qu Qingmo meeting Luo Rongye for the first time came to mind. It was the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet. Under the leadership of the eldest princess Luo Rongyi, she got to know Luo Rongye.

At that time, Luo Rongye was aloof and unrestrained, turning a blind eye to people, with his aura as a prince, he was flattered and flattered by everyone, with a careless slap on his face, as if he never took people seriously; At first glance, she saw the fragility in his eyes, which made her want to love him well.

Luo Rongye is an ambitious person, he is proud, aloof, selfish and cruel; these are not what Qu Qingmo likes, but Qu Qingmo is no longer able to extricate himself; she has many things to ask him, but she is struggling. There was no chance. On their wedding night, she was full of expectations, but all she got was a cold room.

She really wanted to ask: "Luo Rongye, you who are lonely, are you afraid?"

She wanted to ask: "Luo Rongye, is imperial power important to you? How does it compare to yourself?"

She really wanted to say: "Luo Rongye, I want to accompany you on the journey, but I'm afraid you won't agree."

She really wanted to say: "Luo Rongye, I really hope that after a hundred years, it will be me who sleeps with you."

She also wanted to tell her: "Luo Rongye, I will always be with you, if you are afraid, just tell me, I will protect you."

……

She had a lot of things she wanted to say to him, but there was a lot of separation between them; he wouldn't know that Qu Qingmo lost his life just by looking at her.

Mo Jincheng let the wind blow in from the window, drying the tears in her eyes; she didn't understand Qu Qingmo's feelings for Luo Rongye, in her opinion, feelings can only harm people, it is poison, once contaminated, There is no redemption; therefore, she rejects feelings from the bottom of her heart.

Family affection, she has become numb; friendship, what is that?Love, she doesn't understand...
