"Because I personally witnessed that girl jump out recklessly to defend you when someone misunderstood you. If not for my true feelings, how can I have achieved such a feat? " Xiao Ruyue slowly said.

Her watery eyes had a smile in them, as if she was looking at a true love that was hard to talk about in her heart.

Xiao Jingyu's face was dyed red with blood.

"It seems like Lord Xiao knows who this one is talking about."

Xiao Ruyue began to laugh as she said "chi chi".

Xiao Jingyu was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a hole and hide in it.

Shen Liang and Yin Lin looked at each other and suddenly felt lucky. The Empress had never teased them like this before, right?

"Don't be too nervous Lord Xiao. In other words, if Lord Xiao and that young lady really have any feelings for each other, we can just find a reason to give you the young lady. The girl that I invited to the Phoenix Palace is naturally worthy of being a guest of your Xiao family. "

Xiao Jingyu's cheeks flushed red, it was an extremely rare sight to see such a clean-minded man.

Xiao Ruyue did not tease him anymore, and asked Xiao Jingyu to listen to some instructions, then left.

After Xiao Ruyue and the other two had left, Xiao Jingyu slowly regained her composure.

He wasn't sure if it was an illusion, but he had a feeling that the empress had known him before.

But, where had he seen it before?

When Xiao Ruyue rushed back to the palace, she just happened to be about to lock the door.

At the last minute.

Otherwise, it would be troublesome if the palace door was locked. Although Xiao Ruyue could move unhindered with the gold medal in her hand, it would still catch people's attention.

Once they caught the attention of others, their whereabouts would be exposed, and that wouldn't be appropriate.

The Phoenix Palace was calm and peaceful as usual.

But when he entered, Xiao Ruyue felt that something was amiss.

The atmosphere.

It was the atmosphere that was wrong.

Today seemed exceptionally quiet.

Xiao Ruyue stepped into the main hall, and the moment she raised her head, she met Yuwen He's eyes.

Wearing a black dragon robe, Yuwen He frowned. His black eyes were like deep pools, his sword-like brows flew obliquely into his temples, his nose was high and his thin lips were pursed slightly.

When he saw Xiao Ruyue, Yuwen He's eyes could not help but reveal a surprised look.

It was a deep black color, and it did not appear dark or gloomy in the slightest when worn on his body. On the contrary, it was even more incomparable than the bright yellow color.

At this moment, he was standing with his hands behind his back, exuding the aura of a king.

Xiao Ruyue was startled, and forgot to look away.

In the time he had to be stunned, Yuwen He casually walked in front of her.

Xiao Ruyue, who was dressed like a man, made his eyes light up.

So it turned out that a woman could also wear men's clothing to give off this kind of feeling.

"Min Er's outfit has really broadened our horizons." Yuwen He lifted her chin and looked at it carefully.

Xiao Ruyue did not resist, but her jaw felt uncomfortable.

"Why is His Majesty looking at me like that?"

"You left the palace without permission and entered the Heaven Prison. Min Er, you are truly too audacious. Do you even put me in your eyes? "

Yuwen He increased the power in his hands.

"It hurts." Xiao Ruyue groaned as she furrowed her brows.

Because he didn't understand what was going on, he was extremely unconvinced.

Yuwen He didn't have any intention to let go, the strength in his hands didn't decrease in the slightest, "Little girl, we love you so much, yet you disregard everyone else and go against the rules? If people knew that you went to the Celestial Prison disguised as a man, how would you, the empress, explain to the world? "

Xiao Ruyue squinted her eyes and hit his hand away without hesitation.

After taking three big steps back to a safer place, he straightened his neck and retorted, "If I don't kill you, I won't harm the world. I still have justice in my heart, so I'm not afraid of the world's criticism."

If Yuwen He's words did not remind her earlier, she would have been tricked before he could react.

Now that he understood Yuwen He's motive, it would be much easier to deal with him.

She did not ignore that, from the start, Yin Lin did not make a sound, and even Shen Liang stood at the door without making a sound.

If Yuwen He had any enmity towards her, Shen Liang would definitely rush over first.

It was because he was the Princess Wuyou and his own wife, and also the bodyguard bestowed to him by the Emperor of the East Mausoleum.

If nothing unexpected happens, Shen Liang will listen to her commands for the rest of his life.

Yuwen He laughed out loud when he heard this, "Not killing to rob others would not harm the heavens and the earth, and you still have justice in your heart. If those stubborn and old-fashioned old men found out that you, the great Empress of Da Xia, entered the Sky Prison just for a mere Minister of the Rites, dressed like a man and acted like a noble man condescendingly. These words might not stop everyone from talking."

Three black lines appeared on Xiao Ruyue's forehead.

Seeing that she had obediently entered the trap, Yuwen He was in a good mood as she actively tried to rescue Jing Yu.

It was obvious that he wanted to play with her.

"If you don't tell me about this, and if the people from Phoenix Palace don't tell me about it, who else would know about it?"

Naturally, Xiao Ruyue would not admit defeat. She raised her head and looked at Yuwen He, who was one head taller than her, with eyes full of provocation.

After he finished speaking, he cast a sidelong glance at Yin Lin.

Yin Lin felt weak in her heart, and lowered her head, not daring to look her in the eye.

"Alright, let's talk about the results of your hard work today." Yuwen He's long arms were wrapped around her waist, his large hands grabbing onto her slim waist, not allowing her to move at all.

Xiao Ruyue looked left and right with resistance, but she did not make a sound. It was unknown what she was hesitating about.

Yuwen He frowned slightly.

She then heard a sudden noise coming from Xiao Ruyue's abdomen.

"Gulp."

In the next moment, the hall was filled with the unparalleled and hearty laughter of His Majesty.

As he sat in front of the table that was full of delicacies, Xiao Ruyue held onto his ivory chopsticks, and did not forget to gouge out two knives in front of him with all his might.

I made you laugh so loudly that you could hear everything in a radius of ten miles.

You've lost all your face!

Yuwen He's mouth curved into a deep smile, and almost curved to the side of his ear.

He enjoyed the delicacies on the table while humming a cheerful tune, he was in a very good mood, and did not care about Xiao Ruyue's sharp knife.

As usual, there were no servants around during meals time.

Yin Lin and the others were also banished to the dining area.

Xiao Ruyue hated being watched for meals the most, furthermore, according to the order of the palace rule s, the Queen would have to eat a meal with more than 10 people watching her. With Yuwen He acting like a public servant saying that she was not happy, she did not know how happy she was eating.

It was unknown whether it was because he had traveled a lot today or for some other reason, but Xiao Ruyue's appetite was especially good. The few dishes that were closest to her that she liked, quickly ate most of them.

He ate with relish.

He had to concentrate on eating.

Just as she was about to extend her chopsticks towards the nearest dish, a pair of ivory chopsticks identical to the chopsticks in her hands appeared out of nowhere and stopped her.

"You ate too fast, it's not good for your stomach, eat after you rest."

Xiao Ruyue looked at Yuwen He's gaze from the outside, blinking innocently, and actually obediently put down her chopsticks.

Being affected by her, Yuwen He's heart also started to "thump" as he also put down his tusk.

"Your Majesty wants to hear a story?"

As if he was staring at Yuwen He with his watery eyes that were rippling in spring water, he only felt his body heating up, and even his heart was burning up.

After waiting for so long, she was finally willing to speak?

"Tell me and I'll listen." Yuwen He stared at her intently, his scorching gaze seemed as if he wanted to burn and swallow the Xiao Ruyue in front of him.

"Sigh …"

Xiao Ruyue sighed lightly, "What a bad fate."

This preface meant that there would be a story that Yuwen He would not dare to breathe too loudly.

But wasn't Xiao Ruyue the same?

She had struggled and struggled, she had wandered and she had been helpless.

But after walking around a bit, she realized that in front of Yuwen He, she was actually able to let down her guard.

Because he trusted her wholeheartedly, because he doted on and cared for her wholeheartedly.

From the very first moment I met him.

After experiencing a lifetime of painful lessons, she thought that she wouldn't be able to love him anymore.

But facing Yuwen He, she could feel his heart throbbing.

This was an experience that Yuwen Chenglian had never experienced before when he was in love with his.

No matter how it used to be, she wanted to try.

Since Yuwen He already knew her identity, why not open the truth and take the risk?

Besides, he would forget.

His lips moved for a long time as Xiao Ruyue slowly spat out the words in his heart.

"I, should have been a dead person."

"Is it really you?" Yuwen He's eyes lit up, the stars in his eyes shone, shining resplendently, "Is it really you, Elder Sister Xiao?"

Since the words were already like this, Xiao Ruyue couldn't find any reason to refute them and lightly replied with a "En".

"I knew it, I knew it, it was you. It can only be you! "

Yuwen He was wild with joy as he hugged Xiao Ruyue.

Those who yearned for it and guessed it had finally come true, how could he not be crazy?

His kiss fell, the tip of his tongue went straight into the ground.

His enthusiasm was infected with Xiao Ruyue.

She could not help responding to him.

In the midst of his muddled feelings, Yuwen He carried Xiao Ruyue and walked into the next room.

His kiss went down like a storm, tight and urgent.

Xiao Ruyue could not help but exclaim out loud, bowing her body as she welcomed him in.

A room filled with the radiance of spring.

Xiao Ruyue couldn't even remember how many times she asked Yuwen He for her, but when she woke up, the pain from her body falling apart left a deep impression on her.

Beside them, Yuwen He was sleeping. There were only the two of them here.

No one dared to come in.

Xiao Ruyue's ear rested against his warm and broad chest, listening to the powerful thumping sounds that came from his body.

She only wished that this moment could continue forever.

But that was impossible.

Yuwen He could not get involved with her revenge plan. That youngster whom she had saved his life, was worth it for a better woman.

She would only be his Elder Sister Xiao and not his empress.

With a light tap of her fingers, it was as if she could touch the deepest part of Yuwen He's heart.

"Your Majesty, you can only remember that I am Situ Min, East Mausoleum of the East Mausoleum, and your Empress."

"I am not your Elder Sister Xiao."

"Your Elder Sister Xiao disappeared ten years ago. It no longer exists."

With the Water of Forgetfulness, no matter how deep the memories were, they would all be gone.

And because he had rejected his long-cherished wish, he did not leave a single detail behind.

She had admitted it, admitting that she was Xiao Ruyue in front of Yuwen He, just so that she could successfully incite the effects of the Forgotten Water, making him unable to guard against her even if she wanted to.

When you wake up, all of your suspicions and speculations regarding Xiao Ruyue will disappear into nothingness. From today onwards, I will only be Situ Min.

It had nothing to do with the past Situ Min.
