Chapter Sixty-Seven: Lost That Identity
Paper can't always contain the fire, and the news that Ouyang Heyue was canonized as a concubine can't be contained.
"Lord, I heard that it was canonized by the Queen Mother herself, which seems to have nothing to do with the emperor. ”
Xu Yan's heart was like being roasted by fire, looking at Su Li's discomfort, he couldn't stand it, and he really wanted to share all the discomfort.
From the moment he followed him, he was faithful to this master until his death.
He will find a way to resolve all the difficulties that will make Su Li sad, and he will find a way to solve all the difficulties in front of Su Li.
But there are some things in the world that can be solved, but there are also some things that he can't solve.
The matter of Ouyang Heyue being selected as a concubine is something he can't solve. Even the emperor has no choice, let alone an ordinary guard.
The concubines personally selected by the queen mother are something that the emperor can't refuse.
After Su Li heard the news, the hand holding the teacup shook, and he didn't realize that some of the tea was spilled.
"The one chosen by the Queen Mother?"
Su Li's gaze was very dim, the person chosen by the Queen Mother, that meant that there was no room for maneuver!
"Yes, it was chosen by the Queen Mother. At that time, the emperor had already left, and the selection of concubines had been completed, and the queen mother suddenly said that she wanted to choose a concubine for the emperor. After the emperor agreed, the queen mother stretched out her hand and pointed at Miss Xiaoyue. ”
Xu Yan's voice became smaller and quieter, he didn't even dare to figure out Su Li's psychology, and he didn't know if he could accept such a result.
"How do you know?"
Su Li's hand holding the teacup was exposed, and his slender fingers were distinct.
He has never loved anyone in his life, but Satsuki is definitely one.
He never thought about growing old with anyone, but Satsuki was definitely the one he wanted to stay with for the rest of his life.
But this qiē no longer had a chance, and even the faint hope was gone.
"It was the news from Gonggong Chen in the palace, and he served by the emperor's side that day. ”
Xu Yan hung his head, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword used too much force, as if the hilt of the sword was about to be broken.
"Okay, I see, you go out first. ”
Su Li asked Xu Yan to retreat, but he couldn't calm down for a long time.
In the dead of night, the cold wind is bitter, and the stars twinkling in the sky are so bright, but the night is as cold as water, and the heart is as cold as ice.
A man in a white robe stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, and the hurricane whistling outside the window tore his already wounded heart to pieces.
Those amorous eyes are full of sorrow, melancholy that cannot be seen at a glance.
That night he did not close his eyes, and stood like that until dawn.
The flood control process is going very well, and there are already ministers in the court who invite merit for King Rui.
The emperor was also very satisfied with the progress of this matter, and had already commended King Rui in the court.
The entire palace was immersed in the atmosphere of preparing for the New Year at this time, and before you knew it, the New Year was about to come, and the weather was getting colder day by day.
Ouyang Heyue hadn't gone out for several days, and her heart was colder than the weather, not just cold, from the anger at the beginning to the despair at the end.
After she was canonized as a concubine, she also had the opportunity to go to the emperor, but the wood was already in the boat, and there was no room for recovery.
I didn't eat or drink for a few days, and my body weakened day by day, from missing and looking forward to Su Li, to my current despair.
The only thing that can make her happy now is to hear Mi Li'er say that Su Li has made meritorious contributions to water control, and to be able to hear his news, which is the most gratifying thing for her.
"Master, eat some, you haven't eaten in a few days. ”
Mi Li'er brought a plate of fruits, knowing that Ouyang Heyue liked to eat fruits, since she couldn't eat, she had to find her some fruits back.
All the fresh fruits in the palace and the rice grains have been tried one by one, but every time they are rewarded to their subordinates to eat.
"Is there any news from Lord Rui today?"
Ouyang Heyue looked at the plum blossoms outside the window, the plum blossoms began to bloom when she was elected as a concubine, and now they are blooming, and the fragrance of plum blossoms is wafting everywhere.
It was originally the most beautiful scenery in winter, but at this time, in her eyes, there was no beauty at all.
Love, she doesn't understand why God likes to joke with her so much.
Is it so difficult to let her love someone well, and then the two of them will grow old together?
Why, why can't she be with the person he loves.
"I heard that Lord Rui is coming back soon, and the emperor also specially held a celebration banquet for him, and I heard that many people will attend at that time. ”
Mi Li'er was peeling an apple in her hand, and the posture of peeling the apple was not very correct, because she had only learned it from Ouyang Heyue.
"Master, do you think we can go then? Or beg Gonggong Chen to say a few kind words for us in front of the emperor, and let us go too, so that you can see King Rui." ”
Mi Li'er is a girl after all, sometimes she thinks things are too simple, but she thinks that the master wants to see King Rui, but she forgets that her master has no identity to see King Rui at this time.
Ouyang Heyue smiled bitterly, see him?
Even if she longed to see him in her heart, she couldn't go to see him.
Then what would she be said to be? Then she would destroy him.
Is it the emperor's concubine who has a private meeting with the prince?
"Mi Li'er, don't bother Grandpa Chen. She got up and sprinkled a handful of plum blossoms out of the window, and the past was gone, she just needed to know that he had her in his heart.
Lovers don't have to stay together, and lovers don't have to be together.
If there are lovers in the world who are married, then what does God want to do, wouldn't he be unemployed.
"Unless the emperor agrees to abolish the title of my concubine, in what capacity do you let me go to see him?
"Sometimes it's better to miss each other than to see each other. ”
What Ouyang Heyue said was not unreasonable, Su Li also thought so, when he returned to Beijing from outside, he had already planned not to meet Ouyang Heyue.
The celebration banquet was set up in the palace, and the emperor not only invited a few high-ranking ministers, but also a few newly canonized concubines to accompany him, but there was no Ouyang Heyue.
The moon concubine on the list has been crossed out.
"Your Majesty, ...... like this"
Gonggong Chen looked at the name that was crossed out, and looked at the emperor who was a little hesitant, he felt that he was against his will.
"Let's do it. ”
It was not that Sunan Ge didn't want Ouyang Heyue to participate in the celebration banquet, but that he heard the wind and heard Ouyang Heyue's complaints and refusals.
So, as long as it doesn't make her sad, what is there about him to be sad?
Some things have to be faced, and if she doesn't have him in her heart, he can only work hard until she will fall in love with him.
