I looked into his eyes and was silent for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty don't have to say anything." ”

His dark eyes looked at me fixedly, as if in addition to anger, there was also a hint of urgency: "You don't believe it!?"

"The folk girl doesn't want to hear it. ”

……

He shook slightly, his brow furrowed even tighter.

"You don't want to listen, you don't dare to listen?!"

“…… Can't. ”

"Why don't you dare, how afraid are you of telling you this?"

"......" I gritted my teeth and said: "The people don't dare, it's true that they are afraid, but they are not afraid of hearing what Majesty is saying, but they are afraid. ”

“……”

"What will happen if the decision of the people is not in line with His Majesty's wishes?"

“……”

"Whatever the consequences, it won't be Your Majesty who will be hurt, but me. ”

“……”

"Over the years, although I have been used to it, people will be afraid of pain after all, and the folk girl knows that she is not a fairy, so she will be afraid of pain, so please don't tell your majesty, so that the folk girl doesn't have to make a decision. ”

His pitch-black pupils suddenly turned to deep black, and there was not even a trace of light.

Although I said that I was "scared", my voice and expression were so calm that I didn't even flinch my eyes, and I just continued: "Your Majesty, I don't want to hear it. ”

He took a deep breath.

After a long time, he said, "If this is the case, then I will not listen to you as you wish." ”

“……”

"I'm not going to ask you to make a decision now. ”

“……”

"But, you can't stop me from talking to you, can you?"

I looked up at him, and for some reason my eyes were a little red, maybe it was because the sun was shining into the room and shining on us at this moment, and it seemed that the blood in my whole body was pouring into my eyes at this moment, and for a moment the waves were churning in my mind, and I could hear the sound of the tide whistling, but I became a little unable to hear his voice.

I just watched his lips slowly open and close, and his dark eyes looked hard at me.

Every word he uttered, my mind became more hollow.

I don't know how long it took, he finally finished speaking, his thin lips slowly pursed into a line, and his eyes became heavier and heavier. In my head, the torrent finally calmed down, and I heard my own heartbeat and his breathing.

But what he just said-

I looked at him silently, and he looked at me hard, but neither of them spoke again.

The atmosphere, as dreary as the oppressive tranquility that preceded the storm, made it impossible to even breathe. Gradually, I felt his hand straining, as if the calm and emptiness made him more and more uneasy, and he had to hold on to what he had in his hand to make him steady.

His wrist was in the palm of his hand, on the verge of shattering.

I gritted my teeth, bearing his anger and unease.

I had thought that every confrontation between me and him would have to involve an injury of one person to break the deadlock, and naturally, as every time before, it should have been me, but just when I was almost about to break the deadlock, he withdrew first, and the force in his hand slowly weakened, and he let go of my wrist.

There were a few deep red marks on the thin white wrist.

I was caught off guard, and I didn't know why he endured it like this, but the next moment, I heard a "pop", and the teacup in his other hand was crushed by him.

Several sharp shards fell to the ground with blood.

I was startled, and before I could react quickly, a confused voice came from the bed behind me: "Hmm, what......?"

I didn't have time to say anything, so I quickly broke free of his hand and turned and walked to the bed.

Miao Yan had already woken up, rubbed her eyes and crawled out of the bed, her unkempt hair made her look like a confused little beast, and looked up at me: "Mother, what's wrong?"

"It's fine. You're finally awake. ”

"Hehe, I had a good dream. It's a pity that I was woken up in the middle of my dream. What was the sound just now?"

I was still a little uneasy in my heart, and subconsciously turned around, and saw Pei Yuanhao, who was standing outside, with his back to us, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, and slowly wrapped it around his palm.

Miao Yan also saw him, and immediately exclaimed with great joy: "Daddy!"

At this time, Pei Yuanhao turned around, his face had been replaced with a gentle smile, and walked in.

"Little lazy worm, finally woke up. ”

"Hey, hey, hey. ”

"What did you dream about just now? I can't get up after sleeping for so long?"

"I won't sue you!"

"Can't even my father know?"

Miao Yan rolled his eyes, and then said, "Okay, I'll secretly sue Sù Dad." As he spoke, he covered his mouth with his little hand and leaned into Pei Yuanhao's ear, and muttered for a while, Pei Yuanhao listened, and a smile slowly formed in the corners of his eyes, and when she finished speaking, she looked at Miao Yan with a smile: "Okay, I know." ”

I sat next to me, a little confused: "What is it?"

He turned his head to look at me, his eyes a little deep, "You want to know?"

“……”

Obviously, it was just a dream of the wonderful words, but when he said this, I felt like there was something deeper, and I didn't dare to ask more.

He looked at me deeply, as if he wanted to say something, but Miao Yan was already next to him and suddenly slapped his forehead: "Oh, I almost forgot! Daddy, is that lady okay now?"

As soon as this question came out, it was like a cold wind blowing into this warm room.

Miao Yan didn't notice it, and looked at Pei Yuanhao with wide eyes, but saw Pei Yuanhao's eyes sink slightly, looked at me again, and then said, "She's fine." ”

"Really?"

"Well, you--the Heart Sutra you recited worked very well and saved her life. ”

"Haha," Miao Yan immediately jumped up from the bed happily: "It turns out that I am really so powerful." If I had known that I had learned my mother's Heart Sutra to read to her earlier, then she would have been well a long time ago, and she would not have been so sick for so long. ”

Pei Yuanhao looked at her, smiled and said, "Medicine and medicine don't die, and Buddha is destined to be a person." Without this time, the Heart Sutra will not work. ”

“……”

"What I'm afraid of is that the Buddha crossed the destined person, but he refused to care about this destined person. ”

My heart trembled slightly, and when I looked up, I saw him look at me deeply.

Miao Yan looked at us as if she didn't understand, and suddenly, her eyes fell on Pei Yuanhao's hand, his palm was wrapped in a thick layer by the handkerchief just now, but at this time, it was propped up on the edge of the bed, but there was still blood seeping out, soaked on the mattress, Miao Yan was startled: "Daddy, your hand is injured!"

Pei Yuanhao suddenly realized this, raised his hand, and Miao Yan hurriedly reached out to hold it.

"Daddy, doesn't it hurt?"

Pei Yuanhao smiled faintly: "The pain here is nothing. ”

“……”

Although he said this, I felt that the wound in his palm was not so shallow, the handkerchief was thickly wrapped, the blood was actually soaked, and it was still seeping out, and the place where he had just propped up on the bed was printed a bloody handprint, which looked shocking. I sensed that something was wrong, so I hurriedly got up and walked out, saying, "I'll call Grandpa Yu." ”

"No!"

He reached out and grabbed my wrist.

This time, before I could break free, he let go of me after shaking in pain, and as soon as I turned around, I saw that the red mark on my wrist that he had pinched before was no longer visible, and was replaced by blood.

Bright red and piercing.

His injuries really don't seem to be light.

I was really startled, looking at him in a cold sweat, but still with a comfortable expression, it seemed that I was going to talk to Miaoyan for a while, I was very sensitive to the smell of blood, and I felt uncomfortable all over my body when I smelled the smell, so I sat on the side and said in a suppressed voice: "Your Majesty, your majesty's dragon body still needs to be taken care of." ”

He was still looking at me.

"I'm going to call Grandpa Yu. ”

This time, he didn't stop me, and when I went out and told Father-in-law Yu that the emperor might be injured, Father-in-law Yu was so frightened that his face turned white, and he hurriedly walked in with someone, and saw the few bloody fragments on the ground at a glance, and immediately became even more frightened, and hurriedly walked outside the bead curtain: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......."

He finally sighed, patted Miaoyan's face with his other, uninjured hand, and walked out on his own.

At this moment, the blood on his palm was already dripping down his fingers, and there were several drops of blood on the ground all the way!

Father-in-law Yu was so frightened that they didn't dare to take a breath.

Fortunately, this time, no other concubines saw me, and no one would have come against me, otherwise, it would have been a farce to be made by the emperor so badly wounded in my room.

He walked past me until he reached the door, but stopped again.

"Lightness. ”

“……”

I looked up at him.

Yu Gonggong and they stood next to him, but he didn't dare to urge at this time, just looked at me with a little anxious expression, I watched him stand there motionless, silent for a while, and slowly walked over and walked behind him.

"Your Majesty, what do you command?"

“……”

He slowly turned his head to look at me, and I looked at his hand.

That bloody look made me a little inexplicably shrunken.

Seeing that my brow frowned slightly, his hand moved, as if he wanted to reach over and hold my wrist, but as soon as he raised his hand, he pulled the wound, and also saw his bloody hand, hesitated for a moment, and then put it back.

He looked at me and said calmly, "Don't be afraid. ”

“……”

"This time, it's me who is hurting. ”

“……”

"Even if you sue me for your decision, it's the same. ”

“……”

"What I say to you is true, and if you don't believe it—if you don't believe it, I'll keep telling you until the day you believe. ”
