Chapter 386 People Are Selfish
Rong Yu looked at Nan Xi, and Nan Xi looked at Rong Yu.
Their eyes met, and the atmosphere was warm and subtle for a moment.
"Your subordinates really take good care of you." Nan Xi said calmly, "I'm afraid that you may inadvertently suffer injustices that you don't deserve."
"Your Majesty is very aware." Rong Yu said with lowered eyebrows and eyes sincerely, "I really don't know anything."
Nan Xi looked at him for a moment and couldn't help but smile: "Don't destroy the regent's cold and aloof image."
"I obey." Rong Yu accepted the order, and at the same time reached out for Nan Xi, wrapped her in his arms, lowered his head and kissed her lips, and then said softly, "Do you smell bitterness?"
Nan Xi raised her eyebrows: "Are you accusing me?"
"I dare not." Rong Yu shook his head, "I am asking for a favor from His Majesty."
"What grace do you ask for?"
"I want to go out and get some air."
Nan Xi was silent for a moment: "I thought you wanted to stop drinking the bitter medicine."
"My husband dare not bargain."
The transition from "subject" to "husband" is smooth and natural, without any stiffness.
Nan Xi turned her head and looked outside. The sun was just right, but it was the coldest month of the twelfth lunar month, and no matter how bright the sun was, she couldn't ignore the cold current in the air.
"Be calm." She refused flatly, "A seriously injured patient still dares to be willful. He really deserves a beating."
Instead of lying on the bed to recover from such a serious injury, you actually want to go out for some air?
I don’t know what to think.
Nan Xi was not used to his problems and ordered Yinyue to lead the palace people to retreat, then walked to the bed and sat down, then reached out and patted the bed: "Come over here and lie down."
Rong Yu glanced at her silently, walked to the bed, and lay on it without saying a word: "My husband's majesty for so many years has vanished into thin air."
"It sounds aggrieved."
Rong Yu reached out and held Nan Xi's thin wrist: "Lie with me for a while."
Nan Xi thought for a while: "Today is the second day after we ascend the throne. Logically speaking, we should go to court."
"Yeah." Rong Yu tilted his head and looked at her, "You just remembered?"
Nan Xi reached out and patted him on the head: "Presumptuous."
Rong Yu laughed sullenly, his wounds throbbing with pain: "Xi'er, you are the first person who dares to hit me on the head."
Nan Xi looked at him for a moment and said calmly: "Do you want me to call you back?"
"I can't bear it." Rong Yu kissed the back of her hand, "Well, I don't dare either."
Nan Xi was silent for a moment: "Empress Jinghua has never beaten you before?"
Rong Yu was slightly startled, then slowly shook his head: "No. She is too dignified, too noble, and has an inviolable majesty of the empress in front of others. Even in private, she would not do such a thing that would damage the image of the empress. "
Nan Xi looked at him: "So, I'm not dignified or noble enough?"
Rong Yu couldn't help but want to laugh again: "Xi'er, my husband's body hurts so much. Even if you want to make me laugh, wait until I'm healed."
"Who told me I wanted to make you laugh?" Nan Xi reached out and pinched his ears, pretending to be angry, "I am asking you to accuse me, can't you hear it?"
Rong Yu was silent for a moment, lying on the bed meekly, as if he was at your mercy: "I was wrong."
Nan Xi coughed lightly, let go of her hand, put her feet up on the bed, and lay down beside him. Her voice was calm: "Listening to what you just said, I understand that you really like Nan Xi now, not Jinghua." Empress."
After all, Nan Xi and Empress Jinghua are very different in temperament, and the way Nan Xi likes him is also different from Empress Jinghua.
From the perspective of a bystander, Empress Jinghua is actually just an obsession in Rong Huaijin's heart. Because she couldn't get what she asked for, she eventually developed paranoid thoughts and was unwilling to give up even reincarnation.
The love between Rong Yu and Nan Xi is more lively. It is not a monarch-subject relationship with clear distinction between superiority and inferiority. There is no looking up and chasing. They have been on an equal position from the beginning. Even though the status of Nan Xi was not as good as that of the regent Rong Yu, but Apart from being a little cautious, Rong Yu had always treated her with the most normal relationship between husband and wife.
The husband loves and cares for his wife, and the wife is considerate of her husband.
This should also be the wish that he had always wanted but failed to achieve in his previous life, and it eventually became a regret.
If Rong Yu still regards Nan Xi as Empress Jinghua, their current love will not be like this. Precisely because Nan Xi understands the paranoia in his heart, the more she can put herself in his shoes and be tolerant to him, and then in terms of thoughts It suddenly dawned on him instead of dwelling on who he loved.
Rong Yu turned his head and looked at her without saying a word.
"Although she is me and I am her, women are all narrow-minded, especially when it comes to emotions." Nan Xi's eyes were calm and her voice was calm, "I can bear that you like me in this life because of her, but I can't stand the fact that in the years to come, you will always regard me as Empress Jinghua. After all, we are different."
Rong Yu moved towards her, wrapped her whole body in his arms, and buried his head on the side of her neck: "I am selfish."
Nan Xi said: "People are selfish."
"From the first time I saw you, I knew you were different from her." Rong Yu said, "Danshu has been taught the standard of a prince since she was a child. Therefore, she is precocious, intelligent, and wise. Just looking at her will give birth to a child. There is so much pressure. You are different. You used to be silly and innocent, like a soft little bun——"
"Wait a minute." The more things Nan Xi heard, the more something was wrong. She couldn't help but interrupt him, "Who is stupid? Who is acting like a little bun again?"
Rong Yu was silent for a moment, then raised his head slightly and looked at her: "When I first met you, you were still young, like a little dumpling."
Nan Xi's expression was petrified. Little dumpling?
She was talking about?
"When did you first meet me?" Nan Xi was entangled, because there was really no way to put these words on herself, "It can't be when you just landed in the womb."
Rong Yu held his cheek, as if recalling: "Well, the little face was pink and tender, milky white, and the eyes were big and bright, twinkling like stars in the night sky-"
"Rong Yu." Nan Xi said in a light tone, "Is it pink and tender, or milky white?"
Rong Yu was silent, just looking at her quietly with a pair of deep pupils.
Nan Xi forgave him for only leading troops to fight, but not thinking about what words to use to describe a child. She quickly skipped the topic and smiled, "So in your heart, I have always been different from Empress Jinghua?"
Rong Yu hummed, "Different. It's just that I have always selfishly wanted to see her shadow in you, but now I think about it, I feel how stupid I am."
"Why do you feel stupid?"
"The love of an emperor is very heavy." Rong Yu smiled lightly, "If you really have the people of the world in your heart, I am afraid that the first person who can't stand it will be me."
