Article 518
Teardrops, when his flustered figure was reflected in his eyes, slipped down again, clutching the sheets with his bare hands, and his vision gradually blurred
"I killed your child, you gave me poison" Qingyi's voice seemed to be choked, closed his eyes, couldn't bear to look at him anymore, and then lowered his long eyelashes, and said in a trembling voice: "Is this considered a flat one?" If so, do they no longer owe each other?
The air, as if frozen by Qingyi's words, was so quiet in the hall that only the north wind whistling outside the hall was heard, the cold breath penetrated into the window, and the bright yellow Luo yarn tent was slightly whisked, with the cold fragrance of cold plums, and the Ming Zheng red wedding dress on Qingyi's body was rolled up, and the green silk floated with the wind
Yu Haoxuan's fist gradually clenched, that sentence seemed to be his key point in the store, the sound of joints sounded, Qingyi's long eyelashes slowly raised, looking at Yu Haoxuan's fists that seemed to have been endured to the limit, his heart also throbbed, it turned out, it was true
Getting up, the golden bell on the fair-skinned jade foot made a crisp sound, as if with some kind of incomprehensible spell, barefoot stepped on the gray blanket laid on the ground in front of the bed, got up, and the hem of Mingzheng's red skirt fell on the blanket with a bang, blocking the slender white ankles, and the bright red robe dragged behind him
Qingyi looked at Yu Haoxuan standing in front of him, raised his eyes to look at his still handsome, but extremely vicissitudes of life, stretched out his hand, and wanted to touch his face, but Yu Haoxuan took a step back with distrust in his eyes, shook his head slowly, and his hoarse voice was still the same: "Is it a beauty?" I won't be fooled."
The hand, a little hesitantly froze in the air, but the corners of his mouth pulled out a beautiful smile, the clear eyes reflected Yu Haoxuan's expression, slowly stepped forward, the bell sounded again, and then the warm but soft hand stroked Yu Haoxuan's cold skin, fit on his face, and at the same time felt his faint uneasiness, and then whispered: "We used to have too deep grievances, already... There's no way to turn back, Xuan, I'm very proud, so it's impossible for me to be with a man who once trampled my self-esteem under my feet, you used Ruyue to strip away my only remaining pride, and you can't understand the pain of that day, and you won't understand why I don't want you to touch the corpse, because I don't like to break the thread, so... I can't possibly forgive you."
Yu Haoxuan's body shook for a moment, but he laughed weakly, he reached out and grabbed Qingyi's hand covering his face, and pinched it tightly, as if he wanted to load all the heartache to Qingyi in this way, he looked at Qingyi, his eyes were already deep and faint that Qingyi couldn't see through, he said: "But every young man, I don't know what to do, I go deep, I hate nowhere to go, and I am entangled and distracted" Qingyi's hand trembled, and wanted to withdraw it, but Yu Haoxuan held it tighter, he looked at Qingyi deeply, The dark blue pupils seemed to suck her soul in, and then, I only heard him say in a low voice: "Qingyi, this is the pain you let me try, in this life, I will always haunt you until I die of old age"
But any young man, love does not know what to do, go deep, hate nowhere to be found, and the heart that is entangled and distracted from Qingyi seems to be stung, tears fall again, she closes her eyes, and does not want to think about everything that has been, but those pictures follow her memories like a shadow, one by one in the depths of the memory are dug up, forcibly brushed away and buried dust, and gradually emerge clearly
Shaking his head, Qingyi didn't want to think about it anymore, but his body was hugged tightly by Yu Haoxuan, he looked at her, with pain and torture, and blew in her ears word by word: "Qingyi, you haven't tried that kind of tearing pain, that... Even hate, I can't find sustenance, every midnight dream, I obviously feel you beside me, but when I just want to snuggle up, it's full of cold heartache"
"Don't say it" Qingyi wanted to cover her ears, but Yu Haoxuan held her hand, imprisoned her body so that she couldn't move, and gasped deeply: "When you just left, I was scared when I saw this bed, and I was so afraid that I didn't dare to sleep every night. I always thought that the longing when I was awake was too painful, so I fell in love with the wine, but when I really drunk myself, I realized that the feeling that I could see but couldn't touch was the most heartbreaking, do you know how I felt at that time? It's like being hollowed out by someone, it hurts so much that it almost can't breathe."
"Enough" The tears in Qingyi's eyes kept falling, why should she listen to this, she didn't want to, but the smell of Yu Haoxuan's body was entwined with her, and the cold kiss was unwilling to let go of her lips, and slashed hard in her chaotic heart, and the big hand soothed her like a storm, pressing her body on the bed
"You let go" Qingyi struggled desperately, beating desperately, but Yu Haoxuan just let her beat like that, as if he would not let her go no matter what, until Qingyi was tired of beating and her tears were dry, but she still held her in her arms like a treasure, kissing her hand that had become red from the beating, and whispered in her ear hoarsely: "Qingyi... I love you, I've always loved you."
At noon, in the 'Kunning Palace', several concubines had already been seated, all of them looked at the door of the main hall, the atmosphere was extremely cold and solemn, but a few hours had passed, but no one came in
Ruyue and Concubine Shu were like rigid stones, and the tea on the table that had been cooled had been changed several times, but they didn't seem to be aware of it, and in the entire hall, only the sound of palace maids walking back and forth was heard
"Queen Mother, drink a cup of tea to moisten your throat" A little, Ouyang Hongyu's soft voice sounded, she picked up the tea bowl on the side and carefully handed it to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother sat on the high hall, full of majesty, less than the love she once had, but more than countless vicissitudes, she reached out to take the tea bowl, solemnly took a sip, sighed lightly, that was already white on the temples, the jade jade pendant sounded, and then handed the tea bowl back to Ouyang Hongyu's hand, sighed: "Zichen, what time is it?" ”
Ouyang Hongyu glanced up at the sky, bowed her head and said respectfully: "If you go back to the Queen Mother, it has been two hours since the tea ceremony, if the Queen Mother is tired, the concubine will help the Queen Mother to go back to the inner hall to rest."
The Queen Mother shook her head, but she didn't mean to blame at all, she just said with a little contemplation: "Han Lin, you go to the 'Heart Palace' to inquire, see if Qin Zhaorong can come to the tea today, if the body is not, it will be exempted, and another day can be."
"Slow" Gonggong Han stepped forward, just wanted to receive the decree, but saw Concubine De Niangniang suddenly stood up, and turned to look at the Queen Mother with grievances in the back, and said delicately: "Queen Mother, this can't be done, the concubine remembers that when she married into the palace, Concubine Shu Niangniang taught her concubines, any concubine, as long as she inherits the emperor's grace, must be in the early morning of the second day, in' Kunning Palace' or the Niangniang who is in charge of the harem decree in the palace to the sisters above the throne to offer tea, listen to the teachings of women's morality, this is not only the rule of our dynasty, but also the unchangeable harem decree since the founding of Huaiyue, but now a small Zhaorong was favored on the third day of entering the palace, but he did not come to the tea, and let the queen mother follow, whether there was a harem decree"
Xu didn't expect Allure to say this, the concubines were a little stunned for a while, the queen mother's face was also a little ugly, for a while, everyone didn't know what to say, and then, only heard Ouyang Hongyu laugh lightly, and said softly: "Concubine De is so talented, no wonder she will be named Concubine De by the emperor, but if it is said that Qin Zhaorong is late in serving tea, it is better to say that the emperor is unwilling to let go" said, Ouyang Hongyu covered her lips and smiled.
Suddenly, all the concubines in the hall looked ugly, and Allure almost didn't grit his teeth, but he still smiled softly: "My sister heard when she entered the palace that Sister Xian has a seven-trick exquisite heart, which is deeply favored by the emperor, and it seems that what she said today is true, but I didn't expect my sister to know even the emperor's state of mind at this moment."
Ouyang Hongyu's heart was sour, she raised her eyes to look at the peerless graceful face of Allure, but she smiled casually, as if she couldn't hear the irony in her words at all, and said lightly: "Concubine De's sister praised it falsely, but if you know the emperor's intentions, the concubine does know a little, but if you talk about the seven exquisite hearts, once, this person did have this person in this palace, but unfortunately, that person has passed away."
One sentence broke the tight string in everyone's hearts, making everyone's brother's face unbearable, especially Ruyue, she grabbed the silk handkerchief in her hand tightly, as if she wanted to step forward and slap Ouyang Hongyu. Concubine Shu's body also moved, but she still said gently: "What Concubine Xian's sister said is true, but the sister of this palace has already grown up, and she has lived up to the emperor's love and grace, so don't mention it."
Concubine De moved her eyebrows, but then lowered her long eyelashes, she remembered Xiao Tong, and she had heard her brother chanting her name all these years, perhaps, because of this, she accepted the title of 'Concubine De', and she wanted to get what that woman had gotten. With a chuckle, Allure sat down slowly, and said with some frustration: "Oh? If Sister Xianfei said this, then my sister would be speechless" Then she turned her head and glanced at Xiao Zhaoyi Xiao Min, who had been silent, but tightly twisted her hands, and quipped: "Actually, when it comes to confidants, Sister Zhaoyi should be the emperor's confidant, after all, when Sister Zhaoyi was more than ten years old, she followed Lord Xiao to worship in Huaiyue, and she has known the emperor for a long time."
Everyone's hearts moved, and then their eyes fell on Xiao Min's body, but they saw Xiao Min clenching his hands even more helplessly, and his delicate face gradually showed a flush, and then said shyly: "How can there be... Sister Concubine De made fun of the concubine", however, this sentence caused a giggle from Allure. The atmosphere in the main hall has also improved slightly
Ouyang Hongyu smiled and turned her hand to look at the Queen Mother, stretched out her hand to help the Queen Mother enter the palace to rest, but saw that the Queen Mother waved her hand very worriedly, sighed, and then said in a low voice: "The emperor has no heir, Xue'er also jumped off the cliff and committed suicide, when this harem came back from the mourning family, it became a dungeon, and the women who came in were like prisoners, and now a Qin Zhaorong finally came, the mourning family must meet her, and ask her personally, must leave an heir for my Heavenly Dynasty, and take good care of the emperor"
The smile on Ouyang Hongyu's face was a little solidified, and a mist rose in her eyes, she knew what the Queen Mother was going to say, and even more knew why the Queen Mother had gray hair in the half year she had entered the palace, she stretched out her hand to cover her lips, forcing herself to commit suicide without shedding tears, and then smiled and held the Queen Mother's old hand, and said in a low voice: "The Queen Mother is relieved, the concubine has heard of Qin Zhaorong's appearance, and the concubine believes that as long as she is really good to the emperor, the emperor will definitely get better, and the Queen Mother and the concubines will definitely hug the emperor and grandson soon."
The queen mother's grief gradually faded, but she looked at Ouyang Hongyu's smiling expression with pity, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty, and said: "Zichen, the child who mourns the hard life of the family, the emperor is most sorry for you."
With a pain in her heart, Ouyang Hongyu shook her head with tears in her eyes, and looked at the concubines who were chatting and laughing at the bottom of the steps, and suddenly, she felt that her heart seemed to have followed the death of the dejected emperor three years ago, after Xiao Tong's death
Three years ago, when she learned of Xiao Tong's death, she risked her resistance and rushed out of the 'Chongyang Palace' and went straight to the 'Yixin Palace', but she saw a once high-spirited emperor holding the cut futon like a wounded lion, and kept pouring spirits. She walked in to comfort him, but when the emperor found her, he rushed over and hugged her in his arms as if he had gone mad, and then roared, "Why did you leave like this... You leave me alone, what do you let me do? Do you really have that kind of confidence, thinking that I really have to be you? ”
At that time, she was stunned, stunned, her heart ached, and even all her hopes were torn apart, it turned out that her beloved emperor was not lucky, nor cold, and then, he gave all his love to a woman, and her tears fell like a broken thread, because of pain, but also because of hate.
But the pain is because he actually sees himself who has always loved him as another woman, and hate, but he knows all this, and when he holds himself, he is so willing to be a stand-in for another woman he hates
She looked at him with teary eyes, watching him carefully touch her face, over and over again, and then listened to his love words to another woman: "Qingyi, I'm sorry, but do you know how I felt after interrogating Hu Hai?" At that moment, I thought that my breathing had stopped, I didn't believe that you could be so cruel as not to save our child, Qingyi, that was our child, ours"
He shook her body wildly, and then, she saw the teardrops in his eyes, and then, he kissed her, confused and eager, but, just when she thought she could finally become a stand-in, the emperor suddenly stopped, he looked at her, as if trying to distinguish something, and finally pushed her body to the ground mercilessly, he said, she is not her, and she couldn't bear to cry: "Is it only Xiao Tong can?" Is it the same woman, only she can? ”
He didn't know, and perhaps had forgotten, that the night of the candle in their cave room was a year after they got married, and that night, without a glass of wine, without a chapel, or even a red candle, he walked into her dormitory and said to her, "Marry me, wronged Zichen" and then, she became his person, but he didn't kiss her, and it was useless to even caress her. On the fourth watch, when he was leaving, she got up and mustered up the courage to hug him, but his body was stiff as if he was extremely reluctant, and he pulled her hand away and left, and later, she knew that it was the Queen Mother who forced him to pamper herself, and he did what she wanted
She always thought that her emperor was just a lucky person and just cold, but when Xiao Tong entered the palace, everything changed, although on the night of the cave room, the emperor gave her a great humiliation, but on the second night, he gave the harem concubines a great humiliation
In fact, she should have seen that Xiao Tong was different, after all, when she served tea for the first time, the emperor, who had never paid attention to the complicated etiquette of the harem, would come in person, this was the first and only time
Taking a deep breath, Ouyang Hongyu closed her eyes and slowly pulled back her thoughts, but the bitterness at the corner of her mouth couldn't be swallowed, it was another three years, and the lovely heart hidden in her chest seemed to be broken to almost nothing left on that night three years ago, but today, when she mentioned Xiao Tong, she still stinged, why were you still so jealous of that woman?
