Chapter 187 Don't Want to Go Back
Everyone in the room looked at Miaoli, waiting for her answer.

Miao Li didn't know what to say, and this was a matter between them, she really couldn't open her mouth in front of so many people.Forced to pull out a smile, he said to Zhou Shuxuan, "Your Highness, take a step to speak."

Without the slightest emotion, she just spoke in a polite and distant manner, unlike the reunion of old friends.It is completely different from the reunion scene that Zhou Shuxuan imagined. In his imagination, Miao Li has normal emotional fluctuations towards him no matter what.

There is no sadness, no joy, he is like an insignificant person.Even on Zhaoyun Mountain, she was angry with him.

Zhou Shuxuan held ice in his arms like cold water, all the joy in his heart dissipated, and followed Miaoli inside.

The people outside didn't want to eat dumplings anymore. Everyone looked at each other with heavy faces and no one said a word.

Miao Li took him back to her house, it was hard to talk outside in the freezing cold, and there was nothing to shy away from him.

After Zhou Shuxuan came in, Miao Li poured him a cup of hot tea, "It's so cold, Your Highness, drink a cup of hot tea to warm up."

Zhou Shuxuan didn't go to pick up the teacup, but grabbed her hand, looked into her eyes and asked, "Are you really so close to me?"

Just a few words, Zhou Shuxuan couldn't take it anymore.

Miao Li didn't struggle too much, and let him hold the same flat tone, "It's not the birth, but the rules. Your Highness is now the heir, so it can't be compared with that day."

Hell rules!
Zhou Shuxuan said anxiously: "Don't say that I became the crown prince, even if I really became the emperor, it would not change you at all."

Miao Li just pulled out her hand at this time, sat down on the side and said lightly: "If nothing has changed, then why am I here?"

Finally asked, Zhou Shuxuan heaved a sigh of relief.He was afraid that if she didn't ask, he wouldn't even have a chance to explain.

"I sent you to my aunt that day because the emperor wanted you to be buried for him, and I did it to protect you. Later, I did something for you, also to blind the emperor's eyes. But the emperor didn't believe me and forced me to I asked my aunt to send you out of the city overnight, and then you came here, hiding from me, and I searched for a long time." Zhou Shuxuan explained everything before in a few words.

Miao Li didn't even want to ask if what he said was true or not, because she felt like she didn't care much.There is no need to investigate the reason, anyway, the result is like this.Zhou Shuxuan's yes may be true, or it may be false, and it has nothing to do with her.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Zhou Shuxuan asked eagerly, "Do you not believe me? I can ask my aunt to explain it to you. She knows the whole thing."

"I believe in you." Miao Li turned her head to look at him, and said in a calm but serious voice, "But I don't want to go back with you."

Zhou Shuxuan must have come here to take her back.

"Why?" Zhou Shuxuan raised his voice and asked, feeling that he was too excited, and lowered his voice slightly, "Isn't it because of these misunderstandings that you have been hiding from me for so long? Why didn't you go back with me?"

"I just don't want to go back with you." Miao Li fiddled with the charcoal in the fire, and said casually: "The emperor wants me to be buried with him. There are no more than two reasons. One is that he told me before Mind, the second is that I am afraid that this kind of love will delay you, and that you will become him in the future. The emperor also treats you with great pains, so don't let him down."

"You!" Zhou Shuxuan stared at her speechless for a long time, so angry that he wished to turn the house over.It's as if he has nothing to do with her when he came to the position of prince, and now he's talking nonsense.Whoever said that it was for his own good not to let him be with the one he loved, he would definitely slap him.

Zhou Shuxuan suppressed his anger and said, "I don't care what you think in your heart now, but you must go back with me today."

Miao Li raised her eyes and looked at him, "But I'm already dead, will His Royal Highness take a dead person back?"

Zhou Shuxuan looked at her dancing shadow under the dancing lights, it was obviously a living person.She didn't die, she was going to piss him off here today.

Zhou Shuxuan gritted his teeth and said, "You are really a female ghost, a zombie, and a fox demon. You have to go back with me."

Miao Li still had that casual attitude, "There are door gods at the gate of the city, and there are gods protecting the east palace. I, a monster, will be out of my wits if I enter."

"I am the Son of Heaven, the real dragon, with me protecting you, even the gods can't touch you!"

Miao Li couldn't help laughing: "It's true." After laughing, she said: "But I still don't want to go back with you. The real Dragon Emperor belongs to the people of the world, not to me alone."

"What do you mean?" Zhou Shuxuan didn't understand, he didn't want to understand her words.

Miao Li sighed and said: "Let me put it another way. After I go back with you, there are countless monsters and ghosts waiting for me. I think I am not young anymore. After this year, I will already be 22. In those water onions Like a little girl..."

Zhou Shuxuan interrupted her in boredom, "Stop talking, there is nothing I want to hear. Do you really know nothing about how I treat you? Because you feel that you are getting old, and you don't want to go back with me. Are you the only one who is getting old and nothing changes in me?"

Everyone will grow old and everyone will die, not just her.Since this is unstoppable, it should be accepted frankly.As long as she is always by my side, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Miao Li was silent for a while, "But I'm really scared, the water in Chengying Lake is too cold, I don't want to suffer it again after suffering it once. Xu Meitang has achieved that, and now she is also the princess. I don't know What do you have to do, anyway, she is the princess now." Miao Li raised her head, holding back her tears and said, "I really can't rob them, and I don't want to rob them. If you tell outsiders that I'm dead, it's true. Think I’m dead. I’m living a good life now, with no worries about food and clothing. Except that I can’t fall asleep when I think about you occasionally, my life is pretty smooth.”

This time it was Zhou Shuxuan's turn to stop talking. He thought she just misunderstood him, but he didn't expect it to be because of this.

"I have never liked to rob things very much. As long as my siblings also like the things I liked when I was young, I will not rob them. I really don't want to go back, and I don't want to enter the palace. You don't have to work hard to give it to me. Change your identity. Just let me go outside, you can stay here, or you can go back to the capital. If you have time, you can go out of the palace to see me, and if you don’t have time, let the eunuch pass a message."

Miao Li never thought about making Zhou Shuxuan give up on herself, knowing that it was impossible.He worked so hard to find her, so he must still have feelings for her.I have the same feelings for him, but I don't like the time after he came back too much.

Trapped in a small room every day, I can only chat with the maid, or do embroidery and read some idle books. The time of the day seems to be extraordinarily long, and there is no difference from the previous day, boring and boring.

In the eldest princess's mansion, every day I look forward to him coming to pick her up.After entering the palace, it is estimated that he will look forward to seeing her every day.She is not even looking forward to it alone, but also looking forward to it with other women.

It was precisely because she kept these things in her heart, otherwise she would have gone back to find him directly.

I was still thinking about my aunt who died in the sedan chair that day. She was thrown alone in the wild without even a grave.I will become like that in the future, although it will not be so miserable, I will probably die of old age alone in the palace.

Now he is very good to her, and after returning with him, he will definitely give her endless love.But what if one day that love is gone?She has nothing left.

Feelings are too fragile, and they will disappear if you don't pay attention.After going back, there will still be countless people sowing discord, countless tricks and means waiting for her, and even the best feelings will be turned into nothingness.

Zhou Shuxuan was silent for a long time, and then asked: "Have you considered my feelings when you said these words? Do you have me in your heart?"

In Zhou Shuxuan's eyes, she just wanted to escape, knowing that the future might not be easy, so she didn't plan to live with him.He also asked him to keep her outside, instead of being a good queen, he actually wanted to be an outer room.If they have children in the future, will they also be lowly illegitimate children?

He finally found this place, thinking that God treats him kindly, but who knows it is like this.

Miao Li replied with certainty: "Of course I have you, without you, I wouldn't have said these things."

For Yu Miaoli, Zhou Shuxuan is a beloved person, not power and wealth.Competing for his favor would make her feel sad, but not competing would make her feel even sadder.

Her answer is enough, Zhou Shuxuan clenched his fist tightly and said, "Well, you can stay here first, and I will come to see you later."

Zhou Shuxuan got up and walked out, walking all the way, feeling as uncomfortable as when Miao Li went out.Isn't she afraid of ghosts and ghosts?It would be fine if there were no ghosts, she would no longer worry about anything, and would obediently go back with herself.

Miao Li looked at his back, and didn't even have the courage to go out to give him a gift.Fearing that he would lose control of himself in the end, he followed him back.

That's it, it's good for now.

I don't know why it came to this point, everything happened as it should.No matter how uncomfortable it is, bear it, and it will pass.

Zhou Shuxuan went out with a dark face, and only said to Ding Guogong, "Take care of her." Then he got on his horse and took the group of people away.

The people who stayed in the room looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what His Highness the Crown Prince was going to do.Duke Ding sighed, no matter what happened, it was right that the crown prince came to snatch his daughter from him.But this girl was originally from someone else, Duke Ding thought about it and sighed again.

Zhou Shuxuan went back to the East Palace and went straight to Yichun Palace, calling out Xu Meitang who had just fallen asleep.
