Chapter 468 Don't Pick Up 25
"Your Majesty, it's late, go to sleep."
Xie Chengyao lay down beside her, and Su Lingruo hugged him again.
The palace lanterns were blown out.
Xie Chengyao kept his eyes open, not daring to move, until he heard the sound of even breathing from the woman beside him.
He removed her hand from his abdomen and lifted the quilt again.
Then he walked out of the bedroom and called the palace servants to prepare cold water.
Every time she touched him, his blood was clamoring and his whole body was craving for more, but he could only hold her.
Don't dare to cross the line.
Xie Chengyao was addicted to pretending to be weak, but he didn't dare to reveal himself. He could only take a cold bath every night after Su Lingruo fell asleep.
Xie Chengyao, who had just finished taking a cold shower and was full of energy, did not look like the sickly and cruel emperor he usually was.
After a long time, Xie Chengyao returned to the bedroom. He gently lifted the quilt and got in. Because he had taken a cold shower, his body was a little cold, so he did not hug her.
Perhaps it was because the noise tonight was a little too loud. Su Lingruo opened her sleepy eyes and found that Xie Chengyao was a little far away, so she took the initiative to move over.
He hugged Xie Chengyao, who was still a little cold.
Xie Chengyao was secretly happy, she really liked him. He was afraid that Su Lingruo would be frozen, but he couldn't bear to push her away.
The hot body temperature almost melted the cold Xie Chengyao.
The woman in his arms felt soft to the touch and had a refreshing scent.
He wanted to take an ice bath again.
The next morning, Su Lingruo woke up. Every time she was next to Xie Chengyao, she would sleep particularly peacefully.
But for some reason, every time she woke up and touched Xie Chengyao, his body temperature was always cold.
Su Lingruo actually suspected that Xie Chengyao was faking illness, but Xie Chengyao acted very well and did not reveal any flaws in front of her.
Even every time she hugged him when she was awake late at night, he always had a chill on him, like the water on an autumn lake that was about to turn into winter.
"Why are there water droplets on the ends of your hair?" Su Lingruo rubbed Xie Chengyao's black hair. "What if you catch a cold? Don't go to the morning court today."
"If those old officials make things difficult for you, you can have the secret guards kill them all." Xie Chengyao shook his head, "No, I'll go with you."
He never called himself "I" in front of her.
Su Lingruo squeezed his cold palm, trying to give the warmth to Xie Chengyao, "Don't you believe me?"
That group of ministers were so afraid of her that they said they were attending court. In the past, Xie Chengyao had never paid much attention to her in order to hand over power to them.
Most of them are handled by Lingruo herself.
Therefore, the ministers only reported to her when they had matters.
Xie Chengyao would occasionally play the role of a tyrant, scaring those old antiques.
Sometimes Su Lingruo felt a little pity for those ministers, but it was just pity. When she took action, she was not merciful at all.
She took a step forward and gently touched Xie Chengyao's face with her lips, "Be obedient."
Xie Chengyao was stunned by her action, and his pale face turned red, "Hmm..."
There was nothing else to do, so Su Lingruo went to court. Xie Chengyao walked around the palace casually until he ran into the palace maid beside Xie Si'an.
"Your Majesty." The maid beside the eldest princess said, "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess wants to see you."
In the Princess's Palace, Xie Sian had been waiting for Xie Chengyao for a long time.
"I originally thought that Your Majesty wanted to seize the kingdom of my Xie family, but I never thought that Your Majesty wanted to give it to me in order to please the beauty."
Xie Si'an sat on the Qingluan rosewood chair, somewhat nonchalantly, "But it's good this way. Ling Ruo is from our Nanlin country. After all, this country still belongs to our Nanlin."
Whether his surname is Xie or not is not that important.
Xie Si'an has no feelings for the Xie royal family, but she still has feelings for this country.
The country belongs to the people of the south, and they are the people of the people of the south.
If possible, Xie Si'an still hopes that Nanlin will be ruled by the people of Nanlin. It is better for the people of Nanlin to rule this unified world.
Xie Chengyao liked Su Lingruo so much that he was willing to go to court with her and hand over his imperial power to her.
It is true that beauty can mislead people.
Xie Sian shook her head. She also had a good impression of Su Lingruo. She had also heard about what she had done in the court. She was as ruthless as her "imperial brother". She didn't know where she got the handle from, but she could control those old ministers.
If it were my third or fourth brother, I think he would have to be more cautious and would not dare to take action.
"I'm leaving Nanlin, please take care of Lingruo for me." Xie Chengyao stroked the sachet he took from Su Lingruo, his eyes softening.
To protect Xie Chengyao?
Xie Si'an's mouth twitched a few times. She might have to rely on Su Lingruo for protection. Only Xie Chengyao felt that others would bully his beloved queen.
Xie Chengyao took out a travel book and threw it on the Huanghuali flat corner table. "I also brought you what you wanted. The places marked inside are the places Xie Siwei has been to."
"Thank you." Xie Sian put away the travel notes and held the safety lock on his chest again.
Xie Si'an suddenly thought of something, "You are leaving Nanlin Country, what about Ling Ruo?"
"If I don't die, how can I give her a place?"
"Does Ling Ruo know?"
Xie Chengyao was silent.
Seeing this reaction, Xie Si'an had no idea, "Aren't you afraid that she will be angry after knowing the truth?"
"Those who achieve great things don't care about small details, and it's not like I won't come back."
He would go back to North Vietnam, sit on the throne of North Vietnam, and then pack up North Vietnam and give it to her.
Xie Chengyao also didn't want to be with her using someone else's identity anymore.
He replaced Xie Siwei's identity, not only because Xie Siwei had been his playmate for more than a decade, but also to have some fun for himself, but he never thought that he would meet Su Lingruo and stay in Nanlin Country for so long.
In this case, there is nothing more Xie Sian can say to persuade him.
That night, a fire broke out in the emperor's bedroom, but the empress escaped the disaster because she was in the imperial study handling official business.
The emperor died.
The fire was so fierce that it almost set the entire sky on fire. The raging flames were reflected in Su Lingruo's dark eyes, but she did not show any reaction.
Chengyao, you are doing very well.
If Xie Chengyao were here, he would definitely know that Su Lingruo's current expression meant that she was angry.
The fire engulfed everything; the emperor's corpse merged with the fire and turned into flying black ash.
After instructing the palace servants to handle her funeral, she returned to her bedroom.
Su Lingruo had a blank expression on her face. She was not as sad as others thought.
After taking a deep breath to calm her mind, Su Lingruo lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
I have to go to court tomorrow.
After Xie Chengyao died, someone wrote a letter to the emperor, begging him to allow the fourth prince Xie Wenzhi to ascend the throne.
Su Lingruo chuckled. These ministers had been quiet for a few days, but now they started to act up again. Did they really think she was a pushover?
"Drag him down and behead him."
