Reborn! The terminally ill prince has taken a fancy to me again

Chapter 140 How did you chat with your old lover?

"You were still so straightforward when you rejected me."

That sad tone made Hua Zuili want to laugh: "Master, what kind of spring are you grieving here? What kind of autumn are you hurting?"

The friendship between them has been cut off long ago, even the love-hate parting that was difficult to tell in the previous life has already disappeared completely at the moment he accepted Mei Ruoyue, if he didn't refuse, would he point to talking about romance with a married man like him?

Xue Sheng could hear her indifference, and the word "son-in-law" made his face turn red, and his heart felt very uncomfortable, but he also knew that everything was his own choice.

"Now the Holy Majesty's secret letter is lost, and you are here, if..."

"My son-in-law, you don't need to worry." Hua Zuili interrupted him, "I have a clear conscience, and I am not afraid to confront the Holy One. You only need to perform your duties."

Although she did come here with a purpose, she did not take the secret letter in the hidden compartment. What is it?Hua Zuili was also very curious. Hearing what Emperor Huan said at the time, the secret letter was very likely to have something to do with Mei Zhuoxue's biological mother or Mei Zhuoxue herself, or it had something to do with the entire Tianhe Dynasty, otherwise it wouldn't have happened. Hidden so secretly.

This reminded her of the Yinghuo Rebellion that everyone kept silent about, maybe it was hidden, and it was related to this matter?

Hua Zuili pondered over this matter, and Xue Sheng's silent look fell into Xue Sheng's eyes, and he felt that she was trying to be brave on the surface, but in fact she had no countermeasures at all. The girl in blue stood there quietly, with no face to face His hostility at that time, it made him recall in a trance, the beauty buried in his heart that could not be eradicated.

"Xiaoli..." he muttered to himself, "Don't be afraid, nothing will happen to you with me here."

"My son-in-law is too arrogant." Hua Zuili sneered, "Who is this lady, and who are you? Why do I need you to protect me?" She turned her head to the side, "Besides, this lady is the future princess, Even if you want to protect, it's not your turn."

After speaking, both of them were stunned.

Xue Sheng had heard about her marriage to the prince, but he thought in his heart that it was just a political marriage in the court, and the two of them had absolutely no feelings for each other, but they just walked the old road as he had no choice.

But seeing her say without hesitation that the person she relied on was Mei Zhuoxue at this time, for some reason, the bottom of her heart was in vain pain like being pricked by a needle, so painful that she was suffocating...

And Hua Zuili was stunned, because she didn't expect him to be the person she subconsciously remembered. She has always relied on herself to walk step by step, and never thought that anyone could be trusted to be her backing, but Just now, when the word 'Prince Princess' was uttered, there seemed to be a sense of relief.

Could it be... that she has such deep feelings for him...

"Xiaoli!" Xue Sheng lost his posture, and grabbed the person who was about to leave.

"What is the son-in-law trying to do? Don't forget the Fifth Highness who is seriously ill now."

Xue Sheng froze, but still tightly grabbed her wrist, "I just want to know, do you really want to marry His Highness the Crown Prince? Is someone forcing you? If so, then I beg Your Majesty..."

"Xue Sheng!" Hua Zuili was bored, and frowned and looked straight at him, "So what, so what, the person I want to marry is definitely not you, and besides, I have nothing to do with you, why do you need to beg the Lord?" What, let go!"

"But……"

'Boom', a loud noise outside the door interrupted their entanglement with each other.

The sound of messy footsteps came one after another, Xue Sheng frowned, and strode out to push open the gate of Tianlu Pavilion. Rows of guards saw him standing there, and hurriedly stopped to salute: "I have seen the son-in-law, I don't know why you are here this?"

Xue Sheng did not speak, and directly took off the gleaming waist card from his waist. The leader of the imperial army saw the big "和" on it, and knew that this item was bestowed by the Holy One, and Xue Sheng was representing the emperor at this time.

"This subordinate is blind, please forgive me, my son-in-law."

Xue Sheng took the badge: "It's okay, let's talk about it, what's going on?"

The leader of the forbidden army said: "Going back to my son-in-law, my subordinates also heard the sound of bombing from Tianlu Pavilion, and thought it was some thieves making trouble, so they rushed to support."

Xue Sheng frowned, glanced at the room indistinctly, and then ordered: "I have been guarding here all the time, there are no thieves at all, but the voice is abrupt, it is very likely that the thieves are making noises, you hurry up and protect the Holy Majesty, don't make mistakes. "

"Yes."

The imperial army took the order and left. Xue Sheng breathed a sigh of relief until their backs disappeared completely. He stepped into Tianlu Pavilion again, rubbing his brows and muttering bitterly and helplessly: "Little Li, do you know how much trouble you have caused this time?" ...Little pear? Little pear?"

Halfway through his low voice, he realized that the house was empty. The girl standing there gracefully just now was just his sudden illusion, and now there was no one at all.

He called twice more, but still no one answered, he didn't know whether it was depression or bitterness, he closed his eyes while looking at the layers of bamboo books.

But...how could such a well-behaved living person suddenly disappear...

Hua Zuili didn't understand either, as soon as she heard the footsteps, she guessed that it was most likely the imperial guards patrolling nearby, but she couldn't guarantee whether Xue Sheng would betray her, so, when Xue Sheng stepped out of the room, In an instant, she jumped out directly from the outermost window, but before her feet touched the ground, she vacated directly into the air.

She looked at the empty soles and swallowed silently.

"How was your chat with your old lover?"

A soft and cool voice slowly sounded from her ears, with a light and cold plum fragrance, which made her shiver.

"How did you come?"

"If Gu doesn't come again, Concubine Ai will knock on Gu's hat." Mei Zhuoxue stretched out Ruyu's fingertips and stroked her cheek lightly, with endless tenderness and intimacy, but her eyes staring at her were dim Unpredictable.

"Aifei hasn't told Gu yet, how are you talking with your old lover?"

Hua Zuili leaned against him, unable to see his expression clearly at this moment, but the hand tightly clasped around her waist was telling his anger and sourness.

"I just happened to see him."

"Coincidentally? This Tianlu Pavilion hides the secrets of the dynasty, and non-emperors are not allowed to enter. How could Zui Zui come here by such a coincidence to coincide with Xue Sheng?"

Mei Zhuoxue pinched her jaw and gently made her look at herself.

"Lying is not a good habit, especially in front of your husband."

His eyes were cold, and Hua Zuili knew that he was completely annoyed. It stands to reason that telling the whole truth now is the correct answer, but for some reason, she subconsciously didn't want to tell him about the 'Yinghuo Chaos'. The emperor's unspoken words are most likely some scars that he has always wanted to hide, and she doesn't want her to recall them again.
So before the investigation is clear, let's be sloppy first...

"I'm not lying, I'm just afraid that you will be angry..."
