Chapter 261: Dragged Down to Earth
Nan Xi raised her head, her eyes full of strong emotions: "Rong Yu, I had a real dream before."
"Dreams are just dreams." Rong Yu didn't know whether he was trying to convince her or himself, "Xi'er, things that have really happened won't be fully presented in dreams."
Nan Xi was silent, "What if it wasn't a dream?"
Rong Yu was startled.
The uneasy atmosphere slowly spread between the two of them, as if a veil was about to be lifted, and each of them wanted to expose the long-hidden secrets under the veil.
Nan Xi couldn't help thinking, why not tell him all about her past and present lives, husband and wife should be honest with each other, tell him that it was not a simple dream, she had personally experienced his death, suffered Gu Qingshu's betrayal and calculations, and saw with her own eyes that cold arrows shot into his body.
With his cognition and tolerance, he should believe in things like past and present lives, and he himself once said that he believed that people have past and present lives.
However, when the words came to his lips, Nan Xi was the first to lose the battle.
What happens after she says it?
Should she tell him that in her previous life, Gu Qingshu betrayed her and plotted against her, but Rong Yu always responded to her requests and held her in his heart, and even before he died, she still held her tightly in his arms. She owed him a life, so she decided to marry him to compensate for his sincerity in her previous life?
Can he accept such a result?
Nan Xi did not have the courage to gamble, because she knew that Rong Yu loved too deeply and too persistently, and could not withstand the slightest emotional blow.
If he thought that she was only marrying him with an apologetic and compensatory mentality, would he be sad? Although she gradually fell in love with him later, the deeper she loved him, the more she dared not take risks.
Nan Xi was silent for a moment and quietly gave up the idea.
"You're right." Nan Xi leaned into his arms gently, and said softly, "How can a dream really tell the whole story of the past?"
Rong Yu's heartstrings relaxed slightly, and he subconsciously hugged her tighter, saying softly: "Don't take it too seriously."
Nan Xi responded quietly, nestled in his arms, listening to Rong Yu's strong heartbeat, and couldn't help thinking, was the strange dream just now a coincidence?
It is said that you dream about something during the day, and it is possible that she had that strange dream because she kept thinking about the identity of the Queen of Dongling these two days?
Sighing softly, she said, "It's late, go to bed."
Rong Yu hummed, and gently helped her lie down: "How do you feel these two days? Do you feel uncomfortable? Do you want to rest here for two days before leaving?"
Nan Xi smiled and said, "I have been taken care of like a jade doll along the way, and I am afraid that I will be bumped or bumped. How can I feel uncomfortable?"
Rong Yu lay beside her, staring at his eyebrows and eyes tenderly and affectionately, with a dark color in his eyes that Nan Xi could not understand.
It was like obsession, as deep as the sea.
It made it impossible to peek.
Nan Xi slowly closed her eyes, her mind was quiet, and her whole body was at peace. It seemed that just lying beside this person and feeling his breath lingering could make her abandon all her worries and sorrows, and her body and mind could be completely relaxed.
However, the pair of eyes that had been falling on her face were like a shadow, lingering, so strong that even with her eyes closed, she could feel the complex emotions from the bottom of his heart that could not be expressed, like uneasiness, like trepidation, like a struggle and hesitation with thousands of words but not knowing how to speak.
Rong Yu, what secrets are hidden in your heart?
As strong and noble as you are, would you also feel uneasy about something that others don't know?
Nan Xi's heart twisted slightly, and her heart was in pain.
If possible, she hoped to share his anxiety. If such anxiety was caused by her, she would give her all to reassure him and let him not be so hesitant.
One night passed.
It drizzled in the morning, and the journey was naturally delayed. Rong Yu was not in a hurry to travel, and was afraid that Nan Xi would be tired from the journey. It was natural to stop and rest after the rain.
The rainy weather easily makes people lazy, not to mention that she didn't sleep well last night. Nan Xi slept in Rong Yu's arms until almost noon in the morning.
She actually woke up once in the morning, but Rong Yu's gentle and low voice "Be good, it's raining today, don't rush to travel" coaxed her to continue sleeping, so she missed breakfast and slept until almost noon.
"Hmm, I slept so hard that my bones are almost numb."
Nan Xi opened her eyes and looked at the noble man who was so close to her. His handsome face was so attractive that Nan Xi reached out and held his face, and kissed him.
Rong Yu: "..."
He had just woken up and hadn't washed up yet, so she kissed his face and lazily greeted him: "Good morning, my husband."
"Good morning, my beloved concubine." Rong Yu's lips curled up, and the tenderness that eroded his bones was hidden in his eyes, "Did you sleep enough? Are you hungry? Do you want to get up and eat?"
"Rong Yu." Nan Xi ignored his question and stared at his handsome face, "You are so beautiful, the more you look at it, the more beautiful it is, like a blooming flower."
Rong Yu's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but smile: "Men are like flowers?"
"Yes, my husband is more beautiful than flowers." Nan Xi didn't think there was anything wrong with the adjective she used, "When I get up in the morning and take a look, I feel good all day long."
Rong Yu couldn't help but curl up his lips: "I'll let you see it every day and every night in the future."
"In this case, is it possible for me to become a foolish king who will never go to court again?" Nan Xi raised her eyebrows and smiled, her eyebrows filled with brilliance. "The civil and military officials in the courts of various countries should all be about the same age. There are a group of old men and a group of middle-aged people. , a group of young people, but whether they are old or young, they are probably all crooked and not as good-looking as one of my husband’s fingers.”
Rong Yu chuckled: "My beloved, you just got up in the morning and ate honey?"
"Do you think I look like a demon concubine who brings trouble to the country by serving people with sex?" Nan Xi pondered, "The demon concubine's greatest advantage is her beauty that captivates the country, and the second is her ability to charm the king and dote on her. She is good at coaxing people, and The coaxing is just right, the sweet words can penetrate into the king's heart, and the emperor is so confused that he can't tell what night it is... Well, although I haven't quite grasped the essence, the truth is actually this. "
Rong Yu's heart softened into a ball, and she said, "My beloved concubine doesn't have to do anything to overturn this mortal world."
"Rong Yu." Nan Xi said melancholy, "You have been infected by me."
"Um?"
"You used to be as noble as a white crane in the sky, and you looked down at the world like an ant." Nan Xi's voice was calm, "Now you have been dragged into the mortal world by me, and you can never go back to the indifferent and noble life you once had."
Rong Yu said: "My beloved concubine, don't you like me like this?"
