Xiao Ziheng likes the taste very much.
He looked at the angry Xiao Zisu, and did not show a panicked expression. Instead, he arched his eyebrows.
Xiao Zisu His eyebrows jumped fiercely, and an ominous premonition flashed through his mind.
Sure enough--
Xiao Ziheng stuck out the tip of his tongue and licked his palm.
Xiao Zisu seemed to have been greatly frightened. He took a few steps back. Walking in the hot spring was not as convenient as on land. His steps were fast and urgent, and he fell straight back.
Xiao Ziheng quickly stretched out his hand to support him.
His movement range was relatively large and he was unable to catch Xiao Zisu, so instead of falling down in the hot spring alone, he fell into two people in the hot spring.
"Ugh..."
Fortunately, the hot spring is not deep.
Xiao Zisu struggled to stand up. His hair was completely wet. The first button of his white shirt was accidentally washed away by the water, and his chest muscles could be faintly seen.
Xiao Zisu wiped the water on his face, and his vision gradually became clearer. Only then did he notice that Xiao Ziheng was lying motionless in the hot spring.
"... Stop pretending."
Xiao Zisu was a little helpless, he rubbed his eyebrows helplessly. "Aren't these all tricks played by children? How old are you, why do you still do this..."
Xiao Ziheng Still no action.
"Stop pretending."
Xiao Zisu shouted again.
But Xiao Ziheng still doesn't do anything.
The water in the hot spring was very clear, and Xiao Zisu could see that Xiao Ziheng's eyes were tightly closed. He maintained his original posture without struggling, but lay quietly in the hot spring.
Xiao Zisu finally realized something was wrong, and he quickly pulled Xiao Ziheng up. "Don't scare me..."
Xiao Ziheng is as quiet as a corpse.
Xiao Zisu then remembered some rumors about him. It was rumored that Xiao Ziheng's illness was from his mother's womb. The emperor searched for famous doctors for him, but there was still no cure. The imperial doctor said that if he took care of himself quietly, Xiao Ziheng could live for another twenty years, but if he encountered any accident, it was uncertain.
What happened just now... is it an accident?
Xiao Zisu was so anxious that he dragged Xiao Zisu to the shore first, and then called in the guard guarding the door. His tone was undisguisedly anxious. "Go and call the doctor!"
The guard hurriedly ran towards the hospital.
Xiao Zisu looked at the unconscious Xiao Ziheng and said at a loss, "I... I didn't mean it... I thought you were faking... that's why I didn't save you right away..."
"Don't let anything happen to you."
Xiao Zisu held Xiao Ziheng's fingers tightly. After all, he was just a child who had not yet reached his prime. No matter how mature his mind was, he would still be at a loss in the face of human life.
Feeling Xiao Ziheng's body temperature getting colder and colder, he cried anxiously, "I really know I was wrong... Third brother... I swear I will never quarrel with you again... Please... wake up quickly..."
The boy's hot tears fell on Xiao Ziheng's face, and the hand that was not held by Xiao Zisu moved slightly.
Xiao Ziheng is installed.
He was very familiar with this hot spring and had learned how to practice water. He pretended to be dead just to see how Xiao Zisu would handle this matter.
Xiao Ziheng thought about many possibilities in his mind, such as Xiao Zisu yelling at him, Xiao Zisu not believing him and deliberately testing him with "leave", or Xiao Zisu dragging him to the shore and deliberately kicking him a few times to anger him and expose his poor disguise... He imagined so many possibilities in his mind, but there was no picture of "crying".
In Xiao Ziheng's concept, only the most important people are worthy of crying, and the only person in this world who meets this condition is his late mother.
Xiao Zisu Why should you cry for him?
Xiao Ziheng can't explain clearly either.
The young man's hot tears fell on his cheeks, and Xiao Ziheng felt that his heart was being burned a bit.
"I'm fine..."
He opened his eyes and wanted to explain that this was just a scam, but Xiao Zisu suddenly hugged him, his voice filled with suppressed crying and the surprise of lost and recovered, "Third brother, fortunately you are okay..."
If Xiao Ziheng said he wanted to "help Xiao Zisu ascend to the throne" before, it was just a casual joke, but when he felt Xiao Ziheng's hot tears, it turned into assisting Xiao Zisu from the bottom of his heart.
A long, long, long time later, Xiao Zisu had ascended the throne as the emperor, the sea was clear, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. Xiao Ziheng had retired to the mountains and forests, and was visited by old friends. When he mentioned the events of that year, his tone was still somewhat puzzled. "At that time, it seemed that the first prince and the second prince had a better chance of winning. Why did you want to help the fourth prince who had nothing?"
Nothing?
Xiao Ziheng couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
Xiao Zisu is not nothing. He is smart, courageous, talented, good at using strategies, has a discerning eye, and is good at judging people's hearts. He is always able to select the most loyal talents. He is kind, does not feel inferior when he is in a low position, and is not arrogant when he is in a high position. He knows how to think in other people's shoes and is good at reflecting on himself, so he is very popular among the people.
These are essential to becoming a good king.
But these are not the reasons why Xiao Zisu impressed him.
He made up his mind to support Xiao Zisu as emperor, which started from the tear left by Xiao Zisu at the hot spring.
Xiao Zisu was the first person to cry for him.
He is used to the intrigues in this world, and when he sees a pure-hearted person like Xiao Zisu, he is reluctant to let him lose.
Later, as he got along with Xiao Zisu day by day and fought side by side, his feelings for Xiao Zisu became more and more complicated, and even mixed with some unknown love.
Xiao Ziheng looked at the old friend who humbly asked for advice, and said "love" in a very soft voice.
He loves Xiao Zisu.
His voice was too soft, as if it would be blown away by the wind in the next second. The old friend didn't hear clearly, so he quickly asked, "What did you say? Can you speak louder?"
"Nothing."
Xiao Ziheng lowered his eyelids slightly, and his gaze fell on the lush bamboo forest outside the window. The sunlight shrouded the bamboo forest, as if it had been coated with a vague golden light.
It's okay if you can't hear clearly.
Anyway, his love for Xiao Zisu is shady.
He has been hiding it all his life, not least for the past few years.
This is the end of Xiao Zisu and Xiao Ziheng. I haven't written much about ancient plots. I have limited writing skills, inappropriate wording or illogical logic. I hope you can forgive me. The script of "Reign" ends here. The roles of the male and female protagonists and other supporting actors will not be written again. In addition, I will take a day off tomorrow, so there is no need to wait for the update~
