Rebirth: The paranoid war king was controlled by the crazy female protagonist

"Does Xiao Yu come here often?" Xiao Yanzhou asked.

"Well, if you can come out."

“Enjoying delicious food and having fun can make people feel relaxed and happy. Even a short-lived happiness is good.”

Her crescent-shaped eyes were always filled with smiles, and this warmth flowed into his heart.

"Short-lived joy..." He was puzzled. Why was it a short-lived joy?

She didn't explain. For her, or even for everyone else, it was a luxury. "I guess Mr. Zhou is also working hard day and night."

Hearing her guess, Xiao Yanzhou smiled helplessly, "What can I do? I'm so busy with work that I can only come out and relax today."

She looked at him and thought for a moment, "It's not necessarily a bad thing to find a reason to take a break. It can improve your work efficiency."

"Find a reason? How?" His eyes were full of confusion and anticipation that could not be concealed.

Shunran frowned slightly, covered her head with her left hand, and said seriously, "Hiss... I have a headache today. What if something goes wrong with such a difficult task? Forget it, let's just take a rest today."

He looked at her expression in surprise, then suddenly understood and laughed out loud, "Hahaha...Xiao Yu is really smart."

She put away her dramatic look and put on a smile, "Haha, when I'm in a good mood, my efficiency will double."

"Haha, Xiao Yu is right. It's worth adopting."

"Don't be too hard on yourself. We are at the feet of the emperor, so we have nothing to fear." She met his gaze and said this casually.

A complex light flashed in Xiao Yanzhou's eyes, he raised his eyebrows, and drew the corners of his lips, "Then, doesn't it mean that the emperor can only work hard and bear no complaints?"

She shook her head and denied it. "Your Majesty the Emperor should be more careful, otherwise he will get sick."

"Sick? Isn't there an imperial physician in the palace who diagnoses your majesty every day?"

She looked at the clear lake and sat aside, "It's the heart that will get sick."

"Mental illness? What is that?" Xiao Yanzhou was puzzled. It was the first time he heard such an expression.

"Yes, a person's mood is like a rope. If it is always kept tight, it will break sooner or later."

She looked at him with her black eyes as if immersed in a lake, and the playfulness just now was put away, replaced by an inexplicable seriousness.

"As an emperor above all others, both the responsibility and pressure are far greater than those of an ordinary person."

For some reason, he was naturally immersed in her eyes, which soothed his originally anxious heart.

"Then, how do you think we should adjust it and avoid it?"

But she asked him, "Mr. Zhou, do you feel happy today?"

"I'm very happy to have Xiaoyu take me out to play." Xiao Yanzhou said frankly.

This was a kind of joy he had never experienced in his life, without identity and without grudges.

"Will you feel happy tomorrow when you think about today's outing?"

"Yes." This joy may last for a long time.

She smiled again. "Maybe there is not much difference between once and many times. We always keep anxiety, anger, and sadness in our hearts. As long as we keep the joy, there will be hope."

"Because, one day, we will realize the scene we hope for again."

Her soft voice was like spring water, enveloping him, "Really?"

"Believe that it will happen. Believe that there is hope."

Why would this young lady in her teens have such an understanding? This kind of understanding is definitely not something that comes overnight. It is more like something that has been settled in her heart for a long time and she finally got the answer.

She stood up and turned to him, "Mr. Zhou, it's nice to be able to play with you. It's getting late, I have to go back."

Hearing that she was leaving, he felt reluctant to let her go, "Xiao Yu, when can I see you again?"

She lowered her eyes and thought, "If we can meet again at this time next week, I will go out with you, Master Zhou, okay?"

"Haha, Xiao Yu is still so mysterious."

"Haha, isn't this more interesting?"

She leaned forward slightly and nodded goodbye, "Goodbye, Master Zhou."

"Good night, Xiaoyu." He also bowed his head in return.

He stared at her as she left, his gaze gradually deepening, "Follow her."

"Yes, Your Majesty." He Yi immediately asked the guards in secret to follow her footsteps.

Her words seemed to have touched a nerve in him that he couldn't calm down for a long time. He wanted to get all the news about her and know everything about her.

……

Qing Yu was on his way back, unaware that the Huanxiang Pavilion was already covered with dark clouds and filled with anger.

Just before this, Xiao Yanqing had planned to go back home directly after finishing his official business, but while hesitating, he quietly came to Huanxiang Pavilion.

For some reason, even though only two days had passed, she felt restless and unable to calm down now that she was not at home.

"Your Highness." Hua Niang didn't expect him to come and was a little surprised.

"Where is she?" he asked directly.

"Your Highness, you should rest inside the house." Hua Niang immediately followed him to her house.

He opened the door, but was greeted by no one.

"Rest in the room?!" His questioning words suddenly became extremely cold.

Hua Niang was stunned for a moment, then she leaned over to look, noticed the open window, and immediately understood.

This Qingyu girl must have gone out to play again! This is the end!

He suddenly felt something was wrong, and anxiety suddenly rose in his heart. Could it be that Jiang Zhuo took her away? !

"Qianyun!"

Qian Yun was also terrified and quickly summoned the secret guards who were guarding her, but the information they received was that she had not left the house.

Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Hua Niang had no choice but to speak frankly, "Your Highness... Miss Qingyu must have gone out to play."

He was startled, his eyebrows knitted, "Play?!"

"Yes…yes your highness."

In an instant, he was furious. This woman was just pretending to be obedient!

"She does this often?!"

Hua Niang quickly comforted him, "No, Your Highness, it's just occasionally, and he always comes back on time."

"It seems that I have been too tolerant of her!"

How dare she sneak out?! And let Hua Niang hide it for her?!

"Go down!"

He angrily drove everyone away and walked into her house.

It seems that he is going to punish her today!

Qing Yu returned to Huanxiang Pavilion and thought about what had just happened, the man's condition, and the guards hidden around him. For this reason, she deliberately proposed to get on the boat, and sure enough, she was monitoring them not far from the boat.

It was also mentioned that the emperor looked visibly unhappy, and he probably had doubts about his own identity.

If he is not from the royal family, he must be related to it.

Who could it be? He also gave her the same feeling as Xiao Yanqing, could it be...

She was immersed in her own thoughts when she opened the door. Perhaps she was too focused and didn't notice the man in the room at all.

"Where have you been?" The sudden and overwhelming voice frightened her so much that she felt cold from head to toe.

She turned back to look at him in surprise, "Your Highness?!"

My head went blank. It’s over! I’ve been discovered!

What a coincidence! Why is Xiao Yanqing here?!

He saw what she was thinking at a glance, "Why? I came at a bad time?"

As he spoke, he took a step closer to her, and the cool air around him pressed against her body.
