Chapter 641: Those who don't hurt are not tormented
cpa300_4(); "You say, you don't remember?"
Being stared at by his hot gaze, my skin was a little hot, and I still stood there calmly, as if nothing had happened: "Yes." β
A hand reached over and pinched my chin.
I don't know if he deliberately exerted himself or couldn't control his strength, but I felt that those two fingers were like iron tongs, and my jaw seemed to be crushed. I gritted my teeth and was held up, meeting the eyes that hid the storm.
He was clearly angry.
"Say it again."
"Weichen doesn't remember."
When I said this, I subconsciously clenched my fists.
To say that I don't care is not to care, but it doesn't mean that I am not afraid, and with my current body and current situation, if he really wants to hit me, then I have no choice at all, I even feel that his slightly spasmodic hand will let go of my chin and slap me in the face in the next moment.
That fear made me tremble slightly.
However, the expected pain was delayed.
His hand slowly opened and pinched my cheek, and the corners of his mouth slightly hooked up a smile, but that smile had no kindness at all, only a thick bloodthirsty ruthlessness: "Yue-Qing-baby!" β
ββ¦β¦β
"You still think you've been wronged, don't you?"
Grievance? I raised my eyebrows and looked at him seriously: "Weichen has no grievances. Concubine Xu Xian's case was a crime that Weichen personally confessed, and he couldn't be said to be wronged. β
There was another anger between his eyebrows.
"It's just that Weichen has forgotten about the events of that year."
ββ¦β¦β
"If the emperor wants to blame, Weichen will never complain, let alone say that he is wronged."
After I said these words calmly, I lowered my eyelids and stopped speaking with a little tiredness. Pei Yuanhao didn't speak immediately, but he could feel his breathing getting tighter and tighter, just pinching my cheek and looking at me all the time, I don't know how long it took, he suddenly said: "Yue Qingying, do you think that I promised Liu Qinghan, before the Jiangnan affair is over, if I don't move you, I don't move you, you can do whatever you want in front of me!" β
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
My heart skipped a beat.
Before Jiangnan is finished, don't move me, don't move us!
Is this what Qing Han and him talked about when they were at the mouth of the waterfall?!
I looked up at Pei Yuanhao in astonishment, and there was still some anger on his face: "Don't move you, don't move you!" He's so bold! β
His anger didn't frighten me, but an indescribable sourness welled up in my heart, and I couldn't help but reddenβit turned out that he hadn't really given up on me.
Don't move me, don't move us, this is his last insistence, even in front of his dreams, he is not willing to give up like this.
But, light cold, light cold, you are so stupid......
Do you think a promise is a real promise? Do you think this man will really keep his promise and not move me, not move us? You are really too naΓ―ve, and you don't know Pei Yuanhao as the emperor too well!
If he had kept his promise, how could I have come to this day? How did you and I get to where we are today?
The pain of my jaw about to be crushed hit me, and I came back to my senses all of a sudden, only to see Pei Yuanhao staring at me without blinking, and the corners of his eyes narrowed slightly with unspeakable danger: "He has always been cautious in front of me, but after falling down the valley with you, he actually dared to negotiate with me and put forward conditions!" What the hell are you doing down the valley?! β
Hearing this, the sneer in my heart suddenly floated in my eyes.
So he was thinking about this -- what did we do at the bottom? Lonely men and widows are far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, and they are alone in those days, and he and I have long been in love, and we have the status of husband and wife, what can we do?
These words, I really wanted to say these words on impulse, but then I thought that Qinghan was still an official in the court, in the final analysis, my life and his life were still in the hands of the man in front of me, I gritted my teeth, and finally endured it.
But he didn't give up so easily, and held up my face hard: "Don't sue sΓΉ me, you even forgot about this." β
This time, I was really smiling.
Forget? Of course I won't forget.
People, because they seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, are afraid of the harm caused by painful memories, so they slowly forget these memories, and only mark these memories in general - pain; But happy memories are different, that every moment is sweet, you can take it out in the face of pain and setbacks in the future, and absorb the power of happiness to get through difficulties and face setbacks.
The one I relied on to survive was my son; And the strength of my life is those memories that were once happy.
"These, Weichen has not forgotten. It's just -- it's not convenient to say. β
Hearing these words from me, the flames in his eyes suddenly burst into flames.
At this moment, Chang Qing suddenly walked in from outside the door.
Pei Yuanhao's hand was still pinching my face, and I clenched my teeth in pain without the slightest relaxation, and he didn't look back, only said in a deep voice: "Get out!" β
"Your Majesty," Chang Qing was also shocked when she saw this scene, but she didn't quit, stood at the door and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine has something importantβ"
"Get out!"
"Your Majesty."
"I'll let you out!"
"The young baby was miscarried back then, and it was killed by someone!"
Chang Qing's voice was uncontrollable, and he spoke out loudly, and the whole room fell silent for a while.
The fingers pinching my cheeks stiffened, and my own breathing was suffocated, and I saw Pei Yuanhao staring at me with wide eyes, with a look of surprise in his eyes, and then slowly turned his head: "What did you say?" β
Chang Qing's face turned red, and he said with some hesitation: "Just now the concubine took Mingzhu and them over, and suddenly thought that Concubine Xian and - and Qingying were pregnant together, but the two of them had an accident one after the other, and the concubine felt a little suspicious, so she asked Mingzhu; She has been hesitant, and was forced by her concubines to ask until the end, only to admit that it was Shen Guifei who was jealous and gave a forbidden medicine for pregnant women to Qingying. β
"A contraindicated drug for pregnant women? How did she do it? β
Chang Qing turned his head and waved his hand, and Xiaofuzi and the others immediately pushed Mingzhu in: "You say it yourself!" β
Mingzhu knelt on the ground, trembling and didn't dare to raise her head, and said, "Your Majesty, these are all made by the concubine, and they have nothing to do with the slaves." β
"I want you to tell you what's going on!"
Pei Yuanhao gritted his teeth and said word by word, I almost felt as if he was going to crush the people in front of him in the next moment, Mingzhu was so frightened that he almost fainted, cried, and cried one by one: "That year, the family of the concubine Niangniang sent fireworks into the palace and distributed them to the ladies of each palace, and the slave maid also learned afterwards that the concubine Niangniang made a move to the fireworks distributed to Fangcaotang, and added some forbidden powder to it. β
Pei Yuanhao's teeth gritted loudly: "Go on-!" β
Mingzhu could only continue to cry: "That night, the emperor came to the Yuhua Palace, and the concubine Niangniang accompanied the emperor to drink, but said that she - her letter period has come and she can't serve the emperor." At that time, the slave maid also felt strange, because, because her letter period was not those days......"
When Pei Yuanhao heard this, he could barely stand still, and after a while, he turned his head to look at my pale face.
Mingzhu suddenly crawled over on his knees and hugged my legs: "Lord Yue, this matter really has nothing to do with me, I didn't do it, I didn't expect the concubine Niangniang to harm you like that, it's really none of my business, don't blame me!" β
My eyes have been looking at the front blankly, but I don't seem to know what I'm looking at, at this time I slowly lowered my head, my vision was blurred, I saw her figure in a trance, and the tearful pleading, more and more blurred, even her cry gradually became distant.
The surrounding qiΔ, and my mind, were all blank at the moment.
I was shaken by her, a little unsteady on my feet, lowered my head and said vaguely: "Since you ...... It's none of your business......"
"Lord Yue......"
"Well, that's okay."
Listening to my weak voice, Pei Yuanhao and Chang Qing both turned their heads to look at me, and I raised my head indiscriminately and wanted to go out: "I, I really don't remember ......"
ββ¦β¦β
"Young Baby!"
"Don't, don't follow me againβ"
Before I finished speaking, I felt that the world was spinning in front of me, and I fell headlong......
I thought I was strong enough, and I didn't suffer any injuries, but I didn't know until the moment I lost consciousness that I was just a superficial strength, and the injuries and fatigue accumulated after falling to the bottom, coupled with the hard work of rushing back to the capital under the starry night, finally broke out at this moment.
I was trapped in a familiar dream, surrounded by blood-red colors, and I submerged myself, unable to struggle, and fell asleep for an unknown amount of time.
When I finally opened my eyes, I felt that my surroundings were blood-red, and I couldn't see anything, only my heartbeat and heavy breathing ringing in my ears, which was so depressed that I almost suffocated.
A pair of hands reached over and grabbed my shoulders: "Qingying! β
It's Chang Qing's voice.
Her gentle and deep voice gave me some comfort, and I slowly turned around to see her sitting on the edge of the bed looking at me with concern, while reaching out to wipe the cold sweat from my forehead: "Are you better?" β
"......" I was still stuck in a nightmare, and I couldn't open my mouth.
"It's a nightmare, isn't it?"
Seeing that I was stupid, neither opened nor reacted, she turned around and beckoned, and Mama Wu immediately brought a small bowl and handed it to my mouth.
It's rice soup.
Chang Qing asked her to feed me a few more sips before asking, "Are you better?" β
My mind is settled, but I am still a little worried in my heart, and I look at her uneasily: "I-"
"You fainted, and the emperor brought you over."
He......?
I subconsciously frowned, only to see Mama Wu and Shui Xiu standing cautiously on the side, and did not dare to speak lightly, Chang Qing reached out and covered the back of my cold hand, and said softly: "Are you okay?" β
I didn't say anything about my mood for a while, I just shook my head silently.
"Your Majesty, I'm very angry." She said, looking at me with some hesitation: "After sending you over, he left." Shen Rou has been deposed, and what to do with it is not yet known, but at least the truth has been revealed. β
Truth?
I read these four words in my heart, and I just felt that a qiΔ was so boring.
Chang Qing looked at my indifferent eyes and said in a low voice, "Are you, don't you want to think of this qiΔ again?" β
Hearing her ask this, I remembered that she forced Mingzhu to ask about my miscarriage, and looking at me like this, I was afraid that she would misunderstand that I thought she was troublesome, so I shook my head hurriedly: "Niangniang, I didn't mean that." β
She sighed.
In the final analysis, this incident is not her fault, nor is it my fault, but now it seems that it is me and her who are sad, I held her hand with my backhand, trying to comfort her, but I heard her say: "The emperor is not having a good time now." β
ββ¦β¦β
"To try the case of the Shen family's rebellion, and to handle the funeral of the queen mother, the concubine's bad deeds in the harem are now reported by everyone, and the things in Jiangnan are sent in stacks and stacks...... The emperor has been in the imperial study for three consecutive days, and he hasn't even closed his eyes. β
ββ¦β¦β
I lowered my eyes somewhat indifferently and sat down at the head of the bed.
Chang Qing said: "Qingying, what's wrong with you?" β
"What?"
"After finding you this time, you have been wrong. You don't seem to want to see anything, you don't want to hear anything, you don't want to care about anything, not even your own business, you'reβ"
"Niangniang," I interrupted, hesitated, and said, "Qingying is just, tired." β
Yes, I'm just tired.
The struggle has reached this point, Pei Yuanhao and I still haven't been able to completely break off, and Qinghan - I thought that I could fly away with him, find Li'er, and live a life that belongs to us, I have never had such an urgent hope in half my life, and even forced him, but I didn't expect that such an expectation would finally be shattered.
I'm really tired.
She frowned slightly.
For a while, the room was quiet, she sat on the edge of the bed and looked at me, looked at it for a long time, and finally said slowly: "Qingying, in this palace, which one is not tired?" β
ββ¦β¦β
"Which one has no unfulfilled dreams in their hearts?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Do you really think that it will be better if you are tired and give up?"
Give up, would it be better?
No, I'm tired, so tired that I can barely take the next step, but I don't want to give up.
Even Qinghan, he dared to put forward such conditions with Pei Yuanhao, and even he hadn't given up yet, how could I be willing to give up like this?
Feeling my hand on the bed slowly clenched, and there seemed to be a trace of fire in my eyes, Chang Qing said: "Bengong knows that your heart is very bitter, and I also know your pain, no one can empathize, but no matter what, you have to remember that it is not easy for you to get to this day, and it is not easy for anyone." β
ββ¦β¦ Empress. β
"It's not easy for the emperor."
Hearing this, my heart sank again.
I don't know what Chang Qing said, he was very angry, what kind of it was, and I don't know what kind of bad time he has had these days, what kind of bad time he has, other people's pain, no one can empathize, me, him, and each other, it's all the same.
Those who do not suffer are not afflicted.
I sat quietly at the head of the bed, didn't speak, but there was a sound of footsteps outside, and I saw Xing'er running to the door and pushing open the hidden door, and whispered: "Niangniang, the emperor has come to see Lord Yue again." β
When Chang Qing heard this, he hurriedly said to me: "In the past few days, the emperor will take the time to come and see you, you-"
I thought about it and lay down slowly: "Niangniang, just say that I woke up and slept again." β
Chang Qing frowned: "Qingying! This time, her tone was already a little heavy, with a hint of reproach, I propped myself up and said calmly: "Niangniang also said that the emperor is tired these days, and it is not easy. β
"Then you-"
"That's the best that Qingying can do."
She stood beside the bed, reflected on my words, seemed to understand, and sighed softly, I had slowly lay down towards the wall, and slowly closed my eyes.
As soon as he closed his eyes, he heard the door being pushed open, Chang Qing seemed to greet him, and whispered: "The concubine visits the emperor." β
A hoarse voice said, "What about her?" β
"Qingying she-she-she just woke up, but she is not very well, she drank some soup, talked to her concubine for a while, and then fell asleep again."
ββ¦β¦β
He didn't speak, and neither did the people around him, but as if they had all been ordered, his footsteps sounded in unison, and he walked out quietly.
But there was a footfoot, slowly approaching the bedside.
I curled up in the thin quilt, I couldn't help frowning, I felt a breath coming from behind, enveloping my body, his breathing was not heavy, but a little disordered, he didn't move again when he walked to the bed, as if he had been looking at me.
I still lay peacefully.
After being silent for a long time, I suddenly felt a very light touch between my eyebrows, a few fingers, touching the center of my eyebrows, and rubbing it gently.
