First Lady of the Crown Prince

Chapter 978 Confession (Xinyang VS Xiao Jifan)

The entrance to the cave was about as tall as a person. When she was taking off her clothes, Long Yi did two things: first, he filled a lot of snow down, and second, she took off one piece of clothing and threw one piece down.

　　…The kind who works with one hand and covers his eyes with the other. Long Mengmeng is not a bad dragon shadow guard who can peek!

Princess Xinyang fell heavily on the soft clothes and snow, and the force was greatly cushioned. She did not suffer any consequences from the fall, but her skin was too delicate, and her arms and legs were bruised extensively at the irregular openings.

She ignored the coldness and pain in her body and hurriedly got up to find the seriously injured person.

But it was so cold that she suddenly stepped on her foot, and a dense pain like needles suddenly surged through her entire foot.

 She gasped.

However, she did not stop to sort out her pain. Instead, she looked around with the faint light from the cave entrance: "Xiao Ji! Xiao Ji!"

This is a long and narrow underground cave with roads at both ends, but it gets darker and darker as you go inside, and she can't see anyone.

“Long Yi, where are you?” She raised her head and asked Long Yi.

 “It’s cold, put on your clothes first.” Long Yi reminded.

Princess Xinyang said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to make it in time."

"He's not dead yet." Long Yi thought for a while and added, "I will remind you if he dies."

 Princess Xinyang: “…”

She put on clothes, but her body did not warm up so quickly. She was still very cold.

 Long Yi then said: "Your right side."

 Princess Xinyang began to walk to the right.

The terrain here is very complicated. It looks very close, but it is very difficult to walk. She fell several times, her knees were bruised, and her palms were bruised.

 She endured the pain and got up.

 She had only one obsession in her mind, to find Xiao Ji.

 Finally, she fell again, this time tripping over a leg.

She didn’t even think about whether this was a human being, or whether it was a living person.

When a well-dressed princess touches a cold corpse with her own hands, what a terrible shock it will be.

 Her hand touched the other person's arm, blood, warm blood.

Her heart tightened, and she continued to go up and touched his face, which was also covered in blood.

She spoke in a trembling voice: "Xiao Ji, is this you Xiao Ji?"

He sat on the cold ground, leaning against the hard rock wall, his head drooping under the weight, and his breathing was short and weak.

 She touched the bridge of his tall nose and his delicate brow bones: "Xiao Ji, is that you?"

 He did not respond.

She followed his arm all the way down and touched the hand that had been holding the sword for many years. There were thick calluses on the tiger's mouth and there were mottled scars on the hand.

 It’s him, right?

 Is that so?

At this critical juncture, she realized how little she knew about him.

The only two nights of skin-to-skin contact were when she was drugged and unconscious. She had no idea what injuries and scars he had on his body.

 He never let her see him either.

 “Waist... waist injury!”

She knew this. Chang Jing always mentioned it, saying it was an old injury of his that could not be completely healed.

Aheng also asked Jiaojiao to look at it for him, but Jiaojiao also said that he could only rest.

 “Where is the waist, waist injury?”

Princess Xinyang didn’t understand and thought that the waist injury was caused by someone cutting her waist, which would definitely leave a long scar.

She reached out and clumsily untied his armor in the dark. She took it for a long time, and in the end she didn't know whether she had untied it smoothly or torn it off with force.

　His breath was covered by the thick smell of blood, so she couldn't smell it at all.

 She had to use this stupid method.

Her hands groped around his waist, but the tentacles were **** and sticky.

 Are there any injuries here too?

Her movements paused, and when she was about to feel the extent of her injuries, her slender wrist was clasped by a broad palm.

Immediately afterwards, she heard a weak and hoarse voice: "Qin Fengwan, what are you doing?"

Princess Xinyang was startled: "Xiao Ji? Is it really... you?"

The circles around her eyes turned red, and hot tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

Xiao Ji was seriously injured and spoke weakly, but his tone of voice was still very precise: "Qin Fengwan... don't think that because I am injured... you can take the opportunity... to do whatever you want to me..."

 Princess Xinyang suddenly couldn't cry anymore.

His body was extremely hot and his consciousness gradually became blurry. However, he never let go of his hand holding her wrist.

 All his strength seemed to be spent there.

Princess Xinyang raised her other hand and touched his forehead: "It's so hot. How did you get here? Didn't you and Chang Jing fall into the snow pit in front?"

Below the snow pit was the cave. He pushed Chang Jing up and fell down. Two stone slabs in the cave collapsed, sealing the entrance.

He dragged his injured body in the other direction. He walked an unknown distance but his strength was exhausted and he could no longer walk.

Princess Xinyang said to him: "You wait for me here, I will call Long Yi."

 He did not let go.

Princess Xinyang felt the strength on her wrist and frowned anxiously, but she could not forcefully pull his hand away. She turned back, looked in the direction she came from and shouted: "Long Yi! I found Xiao Ji!"

 Click!

 There was a cracking sound from the top.

 This place is going to collapse!

"Can you still leave? The cave is about to collapse!" Princess Xinyang asked him.

 Xiao Ji slowly let go of her hand.

 He can't leave.

 But she can go.

Long Yi, Zhang Yong and others did not dare to act rashly, otherwise the entire tunnel would collapse by accident, and Xiao Ji and Princess Xinyang would all be buried underneath.

 Zhang Yong almost collapsed: "Princess, my ancestor, why do you want to go down?"

The death of a marquis is enough to make him drink a pot of wine, but if he takes the death of a princess from another country, his wealth and life will be at stake!

Hearing the sound of gradually cracking, Long Yi suddenly pulled Zhang Yong to take a step back.

 There was only a loud bang and the cave collapsed!

With the small entrance as the center, it spread to the caves at both ends. The rocks on the side collapsed inch by inch. Princess Xinyang grabbed Xiao Ji's arm and tried to help him up.

Seeing that they were about to be crushed to death, Xiao Ji, who had already exhausted all his energy, suddenly got the strength from nowhere, hugged her soft waist and turned her around.

　　Boom!

 The place where they were originally collapsed.

 The fragments of the rock fell next to the two of them. Xiao Ji covered her with his tall and weak body, and protected her with his arms.

Fragments of rocks hit his back one by one. He gritted his teeth to hold on. The veins on his forehead and arms popped out, and heavy beads of cold sweat fell down one by one.

It took several breaths before everything finally stopped.

 The way they came was completely blocked, so they had no choice but to continue walking forward or sleep here together.

 Princess Xinyang raised her hand and touched his face: "Xiao Ji."

 Xiao Ji did not move.

 His strength had long since gone, and he maintained his posture of protecting her with obsession.

 He had lost consciousness, and only his body was still stiff.

"Xiao Ji...Xiao Ji...Xiao Ji, did you hear me?"

 Princess Xinyang could not wake him up. His body temperature was rapidly decreasing and his breathing was weak.

Her hand tremblingly touched his neck.

 She could not feel his pulse.

 His heartbeat…stopped.

Princess Xinyang lay under him, tears bursting out of her eyes: "Xiao Ji... Xiao Ji, you don't want to die... you don't want to die..."

 She still lost him.

　　Since when did he come into her heart?

It

She couldn't tell. She only knew that it was too late.

"I haven't told you yet... I'm cured... I won't push you away anymore... Open your eyes and look at me..."

“Xiao Ji, look at me...”

 She burst into tears.

　　It turns out that losing your lover is such a heart-piercing feeling.

It hurts.

 But why did she understand so late?

Why couldn’t she discover her heart earlier?

"Xiao Ji..." She clutched his shirt tightly and cried hoarsely.

 “Ahem!”

 Xiao Ji, who was lying weakly on top of her, suddenly took a sharp breath and started to choke and cough desperately!

Princess Xinyang was startled. She opened her eyes full of tears and looked at him unblinkingly in the darkness: "Xiao Ji! Xiao Ji!"

 Xiao Ji turned his head and coughed so hard that he wished he could cough out his lungs.

Princess Xinyang helped him sit down against the wall and asked with a choked voice, "Are you okay?"

Xiao Ji gasped: "I just couldn't catch my breath... I almost died..."

 Princess Xinyang’s tears became more intense.

She is not a tearful person, and she is not pregnant. She can’t figure out why she can’t stop crying today.

Xiao Ji leaned against the wall weakly, saying in pain and weakness: "Qin Fengwan, what were you talking about just now...?"

"It's nothing." Princess Xinyang wiped her tears solemnly and said in a normal tone, "Do you have any scratches on your body? Let me see where you are injured."

Xiao Ji raised his left arm, which was actually more seriously injured but not bleeding, and pulled her into his arms forcefully and domineeringly.

Her heart skipped a beat when she heard him whisper in her ear: "I heard it, Qin Fengwan."
