The spring rain stopped, but the depression in Gao Zhen's heart did not stop.
Gao Zhen turned around and was about to leave, but Luo Qingzhi stopped her.
"Ah Chao."
Gao Zhen said "hmm" and stopped, but did not look back.
Luo Qingzhi walked up to him, raised her head slightly, and met his gaze. A pair of innocent and lost eyes struck her heart.
Her voice was gentle and she said slowly: "Ah Chao, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that the palace is not a completely safe place."
"I know." Gao Zhen nodded, "I know, Aluo, I just, just..."
Luo Qingzhi blinked, waiting for his answer.
"I'm just a little jealous..."
Gao Zhen's answer stunned Luo Qingzhi, "Jealous? Me, Your Majesty and I?"
"Yes." Gao Zhen nodded and said, "I know that you and His Majesty have known each other since they were young. You have been together for so many years. He knows many things that I don't know. I..."
Before Gao Zhen finished speaking, Luo Qingzhi laughed out loud.
Gao Zhen immediately lowered his head, "That's childish, isn't it?"
Luo Qingzhi hugged him gently, "Not childish."
Gao Zhen enjoyed Luo Qingzhi's every initiative. He hugged her back, even using a little force to hold her tighter.
"Your Majesty and I have known each other since childhood. If we could be together, we would have been together long ago." Luo Qingzhi said.
The haze of a night was instantly dispelled by a hug and a word.
Gao Zhen took the initiative to end the hug. Luo Qingzhi thought that his sensitive thoughts had been calmed and was about to say good night.
"Can I kiss you?"
Luo Qingzhi's eyes were stunned. Gao Zhen lowered his head and kissed her lips. At first, he was still gently probing. When he realized that Luo Qingzhi didn't refuse, he started to attack.
Luo Qingzhi was just in a daze at first, but when she reacted, she was already entangled, so she had to close her eyes and let him attack.
Both of them gradually immersed themselves in the kiss, the temperature rose, and they made ambiguous sounds.
"What are you doing?"
The sudden sound made both of them suddenly come back to their senses. They looked at the room door that was not closed. Fan Li, who had left and returned, was standing at the door with surprised eyes.
Fan Li said sharply: "You...you..."
Gao Zhen stood in front of Luo Qingzhi and explained first: "Master, we are meant to be husband and wife."
"That's a temporary measure." Fan Li said.
Gao Zhen said seriously: "No, we have been husband and wife for a long time."
"Ah Chao!"
Luo Qingzhi stopped Gao Zhen from continuing, "You go back first and I will explain."
Gao Zhen refused to leave alone.
"Go back," Luo Qingzhi said softly.
Gao Zhen left with a worried look on his face.
The moment the room door closed, Fan Li spoke angrily: "Do you know what you are doing?"
Luo Qingzhi nodded, "I know."
Fan Li shook his head and became even more angry, "He is seven years younger than you."
"......I know."
Luo Qingzhi's indifferent attitude made Fan Li even more angry, "You told me that you wanted to support him to ascend to the throne of God. Now that you have such a relationship with him, do you still want to take the throne after that?
"
"..."
After being silent for a long time, Luo Qingzhi said: "No, I will not enter the palace."
Fan Li asked back: "Then what are you and him doing now, huh?"
Luo Qingzhi did not answer, and Fan Li continued: "Sir, of course I also hope that you can meet a good man and live a normal life from then on. However, Gao Zhen will not be that person. After he ascends to the throne of God, those of us who are assisting him will
Everyone has to retreat, don’t you understand this truth?”
"I know." Luo Qingzhi answered.
Fan Li sighed deeply and said, "You know everything.
I understand, then tell me what’s going on between you and him?”
"Master!"
Gao Zhen, who was supposed to leave, opened the door and said loudly: "Master! It has nothing to do with A Luo. It's me. It's me who can't control myself. It's my boldness. It's because I like her. A Luo is just, just
There is no way to refuse me..."
Fan Li listened to Gao Zhen's long monologue. Instead of calming down, he became even more angry. He looked at Luo Qingzhi and said seriously: "Stop it."
Gao Zhen also looked at Luo Qingzhi, terrified in his heart, staring at her mouth for fear of missing every word she said.
The door of the study room was wide open. After a whole winter of dormancy, the chirping of insects once again became the main theme of the night.
Luo Qingzhi said: "Sir, Achao and I want to be husband and wife."
Fan Li knew that this was Luo Qingzhi's answer. He sighed deeply, rolled up his sleeves and left.
Gao Zhen had never seen Fan Li speak loudly to Luo Qingzhi since he came to the Princess's Mansion. He looked at Luo Qingzhi worriedly and asked cautiously: "Did I get into trouble?"
"No." Luo Qingzhi shook her head and said, "Sir, you will know sooner or later."
Just outside the door, Gao Zhen almost heard what Fan Li and Luo Qingzhi said. Although he knew Luo Qingzhi's plan early on, he still couldn't help but ask, "If this matter succeeds, will A Luo really do it?"
Will you be by my side?"
Luo Qingzhi listened to his question and knew that he had heard the conversation in the room.
"At that time, if you still need me, I will stay by your side." Luo Qingzhi promised.
"Of course I need you." Gao Zhen said immediately, fearing that Luo Qingzhi wouldn't be able to understand his feelings.
Luo Qingzhi didn't answer, just smiled lightly.
On the second day, Luo Qingzhi and Gao Zhen took the emperor's edict, joined Luo Chen, and entered the Imperial Academy in a huge formation.
Luo Chen asked if he would start looking for someone, and Luo Qingzhi said: "Wait a moment."
Qi Zhen came to the hall in a panic and asked, "What does the princess mean by this?"
Luo Qingzhi said: "Don't you understand, Master Si Ye?"
Qi Zhen didn't know why, so he asked: "Of course I don't know, the official, please let the princess know clearly."
Qin Shu took Xia Ji to the Imperial Academy and nodded towards Luo Qingzhi.
Luo Qingzhi said to Luo Chen: "Go."
Luo Chen received permission, whistled to call the yellow dog, put a handkerchief on the yellow dog's nose, sniffed it, and then led it running around the Imperial Academy.
"Wait and see, Sir Siye."
Xia Ji was brought to Luo Qingzhi. Most of his injuries had healed and he seemed to be in good spirits.
Luo Qingzhi said: "Master Xia, many things are not what you think."
Xia Ji frowned and looked around. After looking around, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Luo Qingzhi looked at his series of actions, and her guess became clearer.
At this time, Luo Chen's yellow dog came out with Li Shen in its mouth, and the onlookers were a little surprised.
Naturally, everyone does not understand why the wanted person appears in the Imperial College.
Li Shen broke free from the yellow dog, and Luo Qingzhi nodded.
Luo Chen patted the yellow dog on the back, and Li Shen was relieved.
"We meet again, Mr. Li."
Li Shen didn't speak, looking like he refused to admit it.
Luo Qingzhi took out the two seals in her arms and just handed them to Xia Ji. He asked in horror: "Where did you get them?"
"One was obtained from Mrs. Xia, and the other was obtained from the Imperial College."
Xia Ji guessed that one of them was given by his aunt, but he did not expect that the other one came from the Imperial College.
Hearing the sound of horse hooves, Luo Qingzhi looked towards the door. After waiting, Bailihan walked in wearing court clothes.
Xia Ji immediately saluted and said, "I'm here to see Lord Baili."
Hearing Xia Ji's voice, others present also saluted.
Luo Qingzhi smiled and said, "With such a lively event today, why haven't you seen Master Jijiu yet?"
Qi Zhen sneered and said, "The princess knows that Lord Jijiu is seriously ill."
"Oh," Luo Qingzhi said lightly, "Luo Chen, tell me where you found this Lord Li Shen just now."
Luo Chen said loudly: "I found it in Master Jijiu's room."
Qi Zhen immediately retorted, "Nonsense."
Luo Qingzhi was not in a hurry and said calmly: "In this case, why not let's go and have a look. Lord Jijiu is seriously ill and we really should go and have a look."
Qi Zhen stopped him, "My lord is seriously ill and needs to rest. Princess, please let me go."
Luo Qingzhi didn't care at all about Qi Zhen's words, and a large group of people went to the courtyard of Lord Jijiu.
Bailihan and Luo Qingzhi took the lead, and everyone came to the courtyard where the wine was offered. Qi Zhen once again blocked the door of the room and said, "Don't bully my Imperial College."
Luo Qingzhi smiled and said, "Okay, Si Ye is sincere. So, have you never doubted that Lord Jijiu fell ill suddenly?"
Qi Zhen was stunned, he had naturally suspected it.
"How about this." Luo Qingzhi took a step back, "We won't go in, how about you go in and take a look yourself?"
Qi Zhen hesitated for a moment, then turned around, opened the door, and walked in.
But for a moment, Qi Zhen came out in horror and asked loudly: "Where did you hide the Lord Jijiu?"
Luo Chen brought Li Shen forward, and Luo Qingzhi said: "Here he is."
Qi Zhen glared angrily and asked, "Does the princess think I'm a fool?"
Luo Qingzhi sighed, and Bai Lihan said, "I think the princess knows the truth, so tell her quickly."
After Bailihan finished speaking, he looked at Luo Qingzhi.
"Luo Chen."
Luo Qingzhi shouted, Luo Chen nodded, entered the room, rummaged around, and took out a box.
"Open it." Luo Qingzhi said.
Qi Zhen slowly opened the box and found many rubber masks inside.
Luo Chen took out one of the masks, asked his men to hold Li Shen down, and put the mask on forcefully, making it a tight fit. The appearance of a wine sacrifice appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Qi Zhen couldn't believe it and shouted: "You, who are you?"
Li Shen didn't speak, and Luo Qingzhi began to explain, "At first, I thought Lord Si Ye was an ally, but later, I realized that you have also been kept in the dark."
Gao Zhen stood up and asked, "Master Si Ye, does he know who I am?"
"...You are Luo Jinchao." Although Qi Zhen didn't understand, he still answered.
Gao Zhen continued to ask: "That night, when you saw me, you said something. Do you still remember it?"
"What are you talking about? When have I seen you at night?"
Qi Zhen's words completely confirmed Luo Qingzhi's thoughts.
Luo Chen took out another mask from the box, and in an instant, Li Shen changed into Qi Zhen's appearance again.
Qi Zhen's eyes widened, "Why, how could this happen?"
