"Then what are you doing now?"
Shen Zhixi looked back at Song Lianzhou, but he had a teasing look on his face.
"Of course there are only two of us in the carriage. We are not afraid of being seen by his people, and there is no need to put on a show." He smiled and sat closer to her, and hugged her waist tighter.
Just as Shen Zhixi was about to reply, he spoke again: "Why, I promised to cooperate with you, shouldn't you give me some compensation?"
While speaking, he leaned closer and his eyes fell on the wound on her chest.
"Look at your complexion, you have recovered well these days."
"What are you doing?" Shen Zhixi instinctively shrank back and put her hand on his chest, "This is on the carriage, you still want to talk about business. What does the Queen want to see me for?"
Song Lianzhou pinched her chin and lifted it up.
"We haven't seen you for three days. Do you have anything else to say to me?"
"Say...what?"
"That's all, what can I expect a heartless person like you to say to me."
Song Lianzhou let go, sat back but still held her waist and said, "Send Wan Ying to my place."
"you……"
"Don't worry, this is just for show to Marquis Xie. In his eyes, I stole your daughter, and you must hate me to death. This will make him believe even more that you want to get rid of me."
What he said made sense, but Shen Zhixi didn't take it seriously.
"Don't think that I don't know what your intentions are." She moved to the side, and even if Song Lianzhou hugged her tightly, she would try to distance herself.
Song Lianzhou stared at her side face with a smile on his face, making her feel uncomfortable all over.
I don't know what he was thinking, but it took him a long time to say, "Madam, you understand me."
"Song Lianzhou..."
"I said I wanted to marry you. Whether I hate you or love you, I just want to tie you to me forever."
Shen Zhixi couldn't help but look back at him, and then replied with a smile: "Then it depends on whether you have this ability. Don't think you can really trap me. Even you and Xie Muyun combined can't trap me." In Yuejing City, even if you all block outside the city and set up a dragnet, I can quietly disappear into Yuejing City."
Upon hearing this, Song Lianzhou's smiling face immediately turned cold.
"You mean King Hui can help you escape?"
Shen Zhixi looked back, neither nodding nor shaking his head.
She didn't tell Song Lianzhou about King Hui, but Song Lianzhou was not a fool. King Hui's fiefdom was in the south, on the same border as Yanzhou. In addition, she had said something to him about rebellion and treason a few days ago, so of course he could guess her. He has a close relationship with King Hui.
"Chen Zhixi!"
Song Lianzhou suddenly grabbed her wrist and his voice became heavier.
"What are you doing? You scared me." She pulled her hand away hard, and her wrist hurt from being caught.
Song Lianzhou looked serious and said seriously: "If he wants to rebel, there will be a war. If he loses, what will happen to you?"
"Yes." Shen Zhixi pushed him, trying to break away from his hand, "You are right, so you have to think carefully about whether to marry me or not, to marry a woman who is in cahoots with the rebel king. However, I said that I have my own way to leave Yuejing City, not relying on King Hui, he is far away in the south now, and although there is his power in Yuejing City, he cannot always take care of him."
"and you……"
"Don't ask me, I'm not a fool. Can I tell you how I escaped from Yuejing City so that you can catch me?"
"you!"
Song Lianzhou was about to strike again. She immediately made a distressed expression and said in a soft voice: "I hurt. Although the injuries on my body have healed a lot, they still hurt. It hurts like hell. I can't sleep all night long. I lie down." I can't even lie down, I can't eat, I didn't even eat a few mouthfuls in the morning, my stomach is empty now, I will go to the palace to see the empress in a while, don't faint again if I get nervous."
Her show of weakness seemed to be effective for Song Lianzhou.
Song Lianzhou sat up again, and even took back the hand that was holding her waist. Although he said nothing, his cold face was still slightly moved.
"It's better to really hurt you to death."
After a long time, he said this.
It was just a soft tone, obviously not sincere.
In fact, he was relieved to hear Shen Zhixi tell him so openly that he would run away. At least he didn't have to worry about whether she would leave every day. On the one hand, he guessed that she would leave, and on the other hand, he was lucky enough to think that she might. I can't bear it and compete with myself.
At least, she no longer agrees on the surface, but secretly plots and deceives behind the scenes.
All he wants is for her to stop lying to him.
Even if she still wants to leave, even if she really doesn't have him in her heart, he still hates deception.
"parking!"
He shouted, and the carriage slowly stopped on the street.
He glanced at Shen Zhixi and immediately ordered Wei Hong outside to buy some food.
No need to ask, it was naturally bought for Shen Zhixi.
Shen Zhixi didn't say anything. He just said that it was true that he didn't eat much in the morning. He went to bed late last night, and it was the time of spring sleepiness. He didn't eat a few bites of breakfast before he drowsily wanted to go back to bed to rest. She suddenly woke up when she heard that Song Lianzhou was going to take her into the palace.
What Wei Hong bought back was a piece of embedded cake, which is considered a specialty of the south.
When he went there just now, Song Lianzhou didn't explain in detail what he wanted Wei Hong to buy, but he was careful because he was afraid that Shen Zhixi wouldn't be used to the food in Yuejing City. For this reason, Shen Zhixi looked at Wei Hong twice and thought that he was really sincere. , Wei Hong was not thinking about her, but actually he was thinking about Song Lianzhou.
After thanking him, Shen Zhixi took the cake wrapped in oil paper, which was still hot and a bit hot to the touch.
Looking back at Song Lianzhou, she found that he was also staring at her.
"I'm worried that you will faint in the palace and embarrass me." Song Lianzhou said.
"Oh." Shen Zhixi held the cake in his hands, moved closer to him, and said with a smile, "Then I will definitely faint and make you lose face."
Song Lianzhou raised his eyelashes, raised his eyelids and replied: "It doesn't matter, we are one and the same as husband and wife. Even if we lose face, we will do it together. As long as my wife is with me, I don't care."
The cake in Shen Zhixi's hand became even hotter because of Song Lianzhou's words.
Shen Zhixi turned away and took a bite of the cake without saying a word, as if to vent his anger. Seeing her like this, Song Lianzhou secretly raised his lips, and his eyes showed a bit of tenderness that even he didn't notice.
Halfway through the meal, Song Lianzhou took a kettle from the side seat and handed it to Shen Zhixi.
Shen Zhixi didn't refuse, but after eating half of it, he couldn't eat it anymore. The dough of this embedded cake was made of glutinous rice, and there were many side dishes inside, so eating half of it was enough to satisfy him.
"That day you said that Xie Muyun wanted to take your and Wanying's blood to make medicine, but I don't think Xie Muyun looked sick, and I rarely heard that he had to call a doctor or an imperial doctor because of his illness. If If there is a disease that is difficult to cure, he must search for famous doctors, and there should be no news of it." Song Lianzhou said, taking back the kettle that Shen Zhixi drank from.
