Xiao Langyan sneered and scolded her for being stupid. Then, his voice was low and cold: "Look south, Duobao is standing next to you."
Shen Dingzhu slowly sat up. She was surprised to find that there was a dim light in the room, which seemed to come from another courtyard.
She followed Xiao Langyan's voice and saw that there was a big hole in the wall next to the treasure shelf!
The light flows in from the hole.
Shen Dingzhu rubbed her eyes to make sure she saw it correctly. She swayed slightly and walked over with weak steps.
She sat on the floor by the wall, stretched out her white and delicate fingertips to touch the big hole in the wall, which looked like it had been dug out by someone. Her small hands could fit three fingers into it.
Shen Dingzhu tentatively poked her index finger in, and suddenly, a warm palm grasped her fingertips.
She was startled, but she quickly realized: "Your Majesty, did you dig this hole?"
From the other side of the cave, Xiao Langyan's indifferent voice came: "Yes, the situation is complicated now. Even if our father doesn't want our lives, other forces may take action."
"There is a hole. I can know the situation on your side immediately. It's just that you have slept long enough. It has been a day and a night. Shen Dingzhu, aren't you hungry?"
As he said that, he had already let go of her fingertips. Shen Dingzhu pulled it back and opened his watery eyes in surprise.
It turns out that it was already yesterday that she was imprisoned?
She slept all day and all night!
During this time, Xiao Langyan used something unknown to drill a hole in the wall to confirm her safety.
Shen Dingzhu remembered the emperor's promise and asked hopefully: "Did the emperor send someone to say anything? Has the matter come to light?"
Xiao Langyan sneered: "How can it be so fast? If everything goes well, it will take ten days and a half."
The light in Shen Ding's eyes gradually dimmed.
Xiao Langyan asked again: "Aren't you hungry?"
Shen Dingzhu covered his empty belly and said in a hoarse voice, "It's okay, I don't feel anything."
However, the next second, on the other side of the hole, Xiao Langyan wrapped something in a handkerchief and stuffed it over.
"Eat." Xiao Langyan's tone was calm, with an unmistakable domineering tone, "You have to eat even if you're not hungry."
Shen Dingzhu unfolded the veil, and it turned out to be two soft pancakes.
She immediately understood that Xiao Langyan was the prince, and no matter how bad his treatment was, it wouldn't be any worse as long as the emperor didn't say anything.
But she was different. The Forbidden Army said they would deliver meals on time, but she was sick and after the meal time, they would not go out of their way to deliver meals.
If it weren't for these two cakes, Shen Dingzhu would be hungry at least until breakfast time tomorrow.
She gently bit into the pancake, and Xiao Langyan glanced into the hole calmly.
There were no lights on Shen Dingzhu's side, so he relied on the candlelight here, and the halo of light gave the cave a more magical color. The beauty seemed to be sitting at the junction of brilliance and darkness.
Her sideways figure was slim and plump, and her waist was not full. Xiao Langyan had personally experienced such slenderness. He looked away and closed his eyes.
Shen Dingzhu couldn't eat any more after half a piece of pancake. She reluctantly drank some tea and felt better in her stomach.
She stuffed the remaining cake back and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I didn't know before that Your Majesty had such a tender side? I thought that Your Majesty would blame me for seducing Fu Yunqiu."
Xiao Langyan held the handkerchief and looked at the half of the cake she had just bitten. After listening to her words, the darkness in his thin eyes deepened.
"I still have many questions for you. For example, how do you know that the emperor's body is getting weaker and weaker because of taking forbidden drugs."
As he spoke, his voice gradually became colder, like a clear spring hitting a stone, which was particularly beautiful.
"This is never a good place to ask questions. I'm waiting for you to explain it to me after I get out. So now, you can live well."
Shen Dingzhu's expression did not change. She was as gentle as a Bodhisattva, but without any emotions of her own. As she listened to his words, her clear and beautiful eyes gradually extinguished the light just now.
Xiao Langyan didn't see it, but he heard her voice saying softly: "I know."
At night.
Xiao Langyan glanced at the next door through the hole. Shen Dingzhu was already lying on the couch. She seemed to be asleep and motionless.
Her long black hair was spread on the pillow. From Xiao Langyan's position, only half of her snow-white face could be seen.
Sudden!
There was muffled thunder in the sky outside. After a while, the sky and the earth began to blow violently, and another summer thunderstorm was coming.
There was no light in the house, and it was extremely dark, and it was impossible to see any fingers. Not long after, the sound of rain fell, like drums, beating on the eaves.
Lightning and thunder came and went, and Shen Dingzhu couldn't sleep. She moved slightly, and as soon as she sat up, Xiao Langyan asked, "Are you afraid?"
Shen Dingzhu was wrapped in a brocade quilt, with a white face and beautiful eyebrows.
She shook her head and said a little stiffly: "I'm not afraid."
However, then thunder exploded, as if it was falling on the ears, shaking Shen Dingzhu's heart, and her delicate body trembled again.
Xiao Langyan sneered: "You are always tough-talking, both in front of me and in front of God. It shows that you are usually stubborn."
He said, extending his long index finger through the hole.
"Come here." Xiao Langyan said.
Shen Dingzhu wrapped himself in a quilt and walked to the entrance of the cave. He looked at his fingertips and wondered what he meant.
"Grab my hand." He said.
Shen Dingzhu hesitated for a moment, thinking of what he had just said, she felt that even though the two of them had done something intimate, they could not overstep it.
Her voice was soft: "Your Majesty, don't worry about me anymore, I'm not afraid."
However, Xiao Langyan's domineering tone came right after: "I want you to hold your hand."
Shen Dingzhu thought for a while, and finally held his fingertips with his two slender hands.
Xiao Langyan has been practicing martial arts all year round, and his fingertips are covered with a thin layer of calluses, but even so, his hands are still like those of other princes, with well-defined joints and smooth lines.
Shen Dingzhu leaned on his fingertips and felt a little confident in his heart, as if the thunder in the sky had gone away.
At this time, Xiao Langyan said: "If you were so well-behaved at all times, I would be able to save my worries."
Just this sentence gave Shen Dingzhu an electric shock, reminding him of the entanglement between the two of them on the bed yesterday!
Xiao Langyan also used his hands to restrain her wrist. When she felt pain and resisted fiercely, he actually said in her ear——
"good."
Looking at his fingertips again, I remembered that he had done a lot of things to her with these hands!
So, Shen Dingzhu's ears were red and bleeding. She hurriedly put aside Xiao Langyan's fingertips, wrapped herself in a quilt, ran back to the couch and collapsed in two steps.
Xiao Langyan was startled, then quickly took his hand back and looked to the next door with a cold gaze.
"Why are you running? Are you not afraid anymore?"
"Concubine, I'm sleepy. I'm going to sleep. Your Majesty, please go to bed early." Shen Dingzhu buried his head, turned over, and turned his back to him.
This time, Xiao Langyan couldn't see her expression at all.
