Queen, don't be too arrogant

Chapter 375 The Grand Finale (7)
Did something happen to them so late?
He was still discussing with them in the room about how to deal with Xie Lin, but Lu Ming couldn't restrain his worries about Shangguan Mingyu and Nangong Jinghong, so he stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I will go first!" Look outside to see if they're back!"

As he spoke, he rushed towards the door, ignoring their obstruction at all.

Seeing him like this, Xie Jingran and Murong Xuanyan could only look at each other and smile wryly. With Lu Ming's temperament, once he decided to care about someone, no matter what, he couldn't change his mind.

And his previous feelings for Chen Niyun were not like this.

What she always wondered in her heart was why Chen Niyun was willing to marry Lu Ming, and why Lu Ming didn't hate Murong Xuanyan for taking Chen Niyun away.

But it's hard for her to find someone to understand this matter, and it has been kept in her heart, which makes her really uncomfortable.

When he was in a trance, he suddenly heard Lu Ming's voice from outside: "Jinghong, you are finally back!"

Just after hearing his words, Xie Jingran and Murong Xuanyan also jumped up from their chairs, and then looked at each other with smiles on their lips.

They didn't have time to say more, so they also rushed out of the door, only to see Nangong Jinghong and Lu Ming walking towards them in the courtyard.

At this moment, Nangong Jinghong looked tired, but his eyes shone with a kind of ecstatic light. Just looking at his eyes, they knew that his plan must have been fully realized.

Sure enough, as soon as he saw them, he hurried forward and said to Murong Xuanyan: "Your Majesty, I have successfully persuaded the elders of the Nangong family that they agreed to help the Emperor!"

Murong Xuanyan didn't seem to have heard his words at all, but hurried forward, grabbed Nangong Jinghong's hand, frowned and asked: "Jinghong, what did you tell me, in order to make this matter Success, what price did you pay?"

Hearing Murong Xuanyan's question, Nangong Jinghong's expression did not change, she just smiled and said: "The emperor was joking, this minister is the future head of the Nangong family, so no matter what, the elders will not embarrass this minister too much." , Therefore, Weichen didn't pay any price at all!"

"still!"

Murong Xuanyan's eyebrows frowned even deeper, his eyes stared straight at Nangong Jinghong, as if he wanted to see through him.

But Nangong Jinghong still looked at Murong Xuanyan quietly with the same smile, and said calmly but firmly: "Your Majesty, what I said is true, I absolutely dare not lie to the Emperor! It's just that I This trip is very tiring, I wonder if the emperor can let this minister rest for a while?"

Murong Xuanyan still looked at him deeply, but when he saw the tired look on Nangong Jinghong's face, he still didn't say anything after all, just sighed deeply and said: "Okay, then you Go and rest!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After Nangong Jinghong finished speaking, she walked past them and walked towards his room.

Xie Jingran stared at him in a daze, not knowing what Murong Xuanyan said before.

If he really agreed to the request of the elders of the Nangong family because of this matter, and it was a request he was absolutely unwilling to agree to before, then she and Murong Xuanyan would really be burdened with psychological condemnation!
However, even though she was looking at him all the time, he seemed to treat her as if she was invisible, never even looking at her!

This is a situation that has never happened before, could it be... What does it have to do with her that he agreed to the request of the elders of the Nangong family?
She was startled in her heart, and hurriedly turned her head to look at Murong Xuanyan. He was caught off guard, and his eyes also met hers.

Seeing his actions like this, Xie Jingran gradually got some outlines in her heart, so she asked him: "Does it have anything to do with me that he can accomplish this thing?"

Murong Xuanyan avoided her gaze, smiled, and said, "You're thinking too much, after all he himself said that he didn't agree to any request from the elders in the family."

"Don't lie to me, you look like him, do you think I didn't see it?"

Xie Jingran smiled bitterly, and then said: "Xuan Yan, you can tell me everything, after all, if this matter is really related to me, then let me alone bear the apology! I don't want to Let you bear this burden for me, and I don’t want your heart to share this pain for me, so if you believe that I have the courage to fully bear this guilt, you can tell me.”

Hearing my words, Murong Xuanyan also had a bitter smile on his lips, but he said: "However, it's better that you don't know about this matter, and I won't tell you either. "

Although his voice was light, it seemed to have infinite determination, unswervingly expressing his state of mind.

After hearing his words, Xie Jingran knew in her heart that no matter what she said, he would never tell her the truth about this matter.

She sighed and said, "Well, but I'll find out someday!"

"However..."

He looked at her with a hint of guilt in his eyes, held her hand tightly, and said, "I'd rather you never know...Maybe, it's my selfishness, but I also know that he ...I don't want you to know, so please forgive me, I... really can't say..."

Xie Jingran looked up at him, there was a trace of loneliness and pain in his expression, as if Nangong Jinghong's agreement to the request of the elder in the family had dealt a heavy blow to him.

She didn't ask again, because she also knew the struggle in his heart, and she was afraid that knowing the truth would affect the relationship between her and him.

Perhaps, she is also selfish after all.

Lu Ming listened to her and Murong Xuanyan's words from the side, his expression was full of doubts, and he couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, empress, what kind of riddles are you playing, and what exactly did you agree to those elders? "

Xie Jingran and Murong Xuanyan turned their heads to look at him, seeing his expression of looking forward to getting an answer, they couldn't help laughing.

Maybe, among the few of them, he is the only one with such a childlike heart, right?

But it was also like this, in his heart, there was no melancholy accumulation like theirs.

Once upon a time, she was like him, but in the end, after experiencing so many turbulent waves, that innocence still left her.

Seeing that they only looked at him with a smile, but didn't answer his question at all, Lu Ming seemed to be angry, and ignored them, and only said to them: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I'm leaving!"
