When the Great Dao Dies, I Remain; When Spiritual Energy Withers, I Endure

Chapter 494 The Empress Seeks a Dream

The guest rooms of the Fufu Inn in Shanhe City are very simply decorated. When you push the door open, you will see two wooden beds on the left and right, with a layer of bedding and a wooden pillow on them.

If you look closely, in addition to the bed, there are wooden tables, desks, wooden barrels, oil lamps, and half-closed wooden windows. Wang Ruyi entered the guest room and fell into a deep sleep, which was very sweet. Li Changxiao saw her deep sleep again, so he observed her sleeping posture and studied this.

But it can be said that good deeds are rewarded. Although Li Changxiao saved her only out of his heart, Liu Qier did not know gratitude, did not distinguish right from wrong, and did not know good from bad. Therefore, even if he was trapped in a fire, he would raise his hand to save her, but he also left.

Wang Ruyi was tortured, but he heard a good name along the way. He was a wise king. Even if there was no mermaid tribe and Mengdao God, if he really encountered a trap, he would also take action.

It was just driven by my heart, not for profit, but it was a blessing that came naturally. How could Wang Ruyi's deep sleep not be an opportunity for Li Changxiao?

It was considered a careful consideration.

One repays one return, Li Changxiao's kindness in saving and caring for him, and the kindness of helping the Tao in deep sleep, but it was all repaid.

The cycle of things and principles is wonderful. Li Changxiao enjoyed it, but he didn't want to spend all his energy to figure out the cause and effect, right and wrong, right and wrong, like an abacus, one bead at a time.

However, it is still necessary to clarify the repayment of favors and money, otherwise I will feel uncomfortable.

It was the hot summer, but at noon, the cicadas were chirping everywhere, and it was faintly noisy. At this time, it was actually not a good time to sleep, especially for Wang Ruyi under the robe. Li Changxiao's eyes moved down to his trouser legs, and sweat dripped down.

The design of this body-covering robe is very clever, covering the body, not ventilated, not breathable. But it is not completely tight, so the wearer's figure cannot be seen. If Wang Ruyi had not appeared, it would be difficult to tell whether it is a man or a woman.

This sleep lasted for an hour, not long but very comfortable. When she opened her eyes again, it seemed that everything in the world became clear. Wang Ruyi wanted to stretch, but she found that her hands were tied and hidden under the body-covering robe.

Immediately, she was secretly annoyed and glanced at the white clothes. Her heart was mixed. She longed for freedom, but when she met the white clothes, she was addicted to the other party's gentle actions.

Although the other party behaved freely and casually, there was always a touch of gentleness in his bones, which she could feel.

As an emperor, she was strong and unyielding, but deep in her heart, she still hoped that someone could be trusted, and she had never felt tired. Now she met this person to save her from danger. For some reason, she seemed to have put all the "dependence" she had accumulated in the first half of her life on this body.

That is why she often cried, felt wronged, and was happy in her heart. Women are really complicated.

Often at a certain moment, she thought that if it was just like this, it would be fine. But then, she felt selfish, and she thought that people were capable and talented, but they couldn't just take care of her for the rest of her life.

But it is undeniable that it was a difficult journey, and she gradually enjoyed it and indulged in it. The guest room was simple and the decoration was ordinary, but she felt happy in her heart. Looking at her expression, her eyebrows and eyes were relaxed, and she seemed to be restricted.

She swung her feet slightly and moved her eyes to the bronze mirror. When she saw herself in the bronze mirror, she had another thought. Although her true face was revealed, she wanted to let that person see her full face.

If she had this luck, her beauty would not be in vain.

She was entangled for a while, but if her hands and feet were free, she would never be treated like this again. The king of Dayu was thinking about it like this, and in less than a moment, he turned around and thought about it.

If you can see that look, it must be a moving scene, but the person on the other side has already tried to sleep, and in that dream, he studied the dream.

After two consecutive deep sleeps, Li Changxiao gained a lot, and he entered the state of moderate sleep, which was obviously much faster than before.

Shanhe City never stopped for a moment.

After an unknown period of time, Li Changxiao interrupted his sleep and looked out the window. In this day, two murders occurred in the street.

The bodies of the murdered were looted, and the limbs were torn apart. What's more, a child took advantage of the chaos to pick up the intestines on the ground and returned to the dilapidated hut to boil water and stew.

How could that chaos not be horrifying? Wang Ruyi also looked through the window and sighed in her heart, feeling very uncomfortable.

Li Changxiao closed the window and told Wang Ruyi that this fortress was very special. There was no county government, no officials, and if she was responsible, it would not be her head.

Wang Ruyi shook her head. How could she not have expected that? She was the king. Everything in Dayu, whether natural or man-made, would eventually be blamed on her.

She couldn't hide from this responsibility. After hearing what she said, Li Changxiao nodded with relief. However, what Li Changxiao had just said was not just a simple consolation, but he saw that the ills of this city were far from being completely governed by Wang Ruyi's benevolent governance.

Behind this, I'm afraid it was related to the incense. Without a temple in the city, the county government could not be established. The people in the city were surrounded by mountains, with a lack of supplies and resources.

In this way, a chaotic and lack of funds situation was formed. The scenes in Shanhe City were naturally normal. Even if Wang Ruyi knew about these problems in Shanhe City, what could he do?

More importantly, the people in this city had been corrupted. Those actions were like those of wild beasts, and the people in the city were all holding big knives and wearing animal skins. Li Changxiao was not unfamiliar with this outfit. It was the dress of the mountain bandits and robbers.

They are not good people in the first place, and when they are combined, it is clear that the chaos in this city is not a problem of one person or one policy, but the city itself is a gathering place of evil.

However, no matter how sinful it is, you still have to beg for food. Li Changxiao tidied up his clothes and took Wang Ruyi downstairs to the lobby to order two dishes. Stay for one night today, and set off again tomorrow morning.

Wang Ruyi was frightened and took the opportunity to hide in Li Changxiao's arms. She refused to leave no matter what, and acted a bit like a spoiled child. She didn't look like a king at all.

Li Changxiao could only let her do what she wanted. Wang Ruyi leaned on his arms and murmured softly, with a bit of pleading and a bit of expectation, "Li Changxiao, just treat it as a dream, can you let me do what I want?"

The woman's passionate emotions, expressed directly, seemed to be so dazzling that he couldn't open his eyes. Li Changxiao was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.
