Chapter 18: Death at Every Step (Part II)
Just when everything seemed to be calm, a discordant scene was being staged in the Chu capital and Shangyang Palace. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
A man in a dark green robe with a black background was quietly drinking the tea handed by the maid, looking left and right at the layout of the Yinshui Hall's dormitory, as if his eyes had never fallen on the beautiful and luxurious middle-aged woman sitting on the upper seat.
Chu Muyu vaguely remembered that there was always a tooth mark on his wrist that would not heal. It was once left by him to keep his mother, and he kept it. Take a look when you can't hold on, take another bite when the wound is about to heal, and as long as the blood is still alive and the scar is still there, he can hold on to the end.
More than 20 years have passed, and Chu Muyu has learned to hide the affection in his eyes, but he can't hide it completely, and he can always get a glimpse of what is going on in his eyebrows.
Suppressing the sadness in his eyes, looking at the familiar old things in front of him, and the mother who made him love and hate, as if everything in front of him was just a cloud dream. It's just that he can't let go of the master here, the one who worries him...... Thinking that if he had a next life, he must not be born in the emperor's family, it was his current identity that made him involuntary and powerless. This thousand-heavy palace is deeper than purgatory, and there is love but not love, and he is bound so much that he is about to run out of breath.
"Mu'er, you seem to have been very busy lately" The woman sitting in the high seat only asked lightly, but her eyes revealed a complex pain and sadness.
"It's nothing busy, it's just like outsiders say, I'm just singing every night in Tai**" The handsome man in black just replied coldly, as if the middle-aged woman in front of him had nothing to do with him.
But a sentence is like a blunt knife, inserted into the woman's heart, grinding, stirring up the flesh and blood.
Xu Lingge slowly stepped forward and stretched out his trembling hands towards his child in the void. She heard herself speak incoherently, or awkwardly comforted: "Mu Yu, are you punishing the queen mother?" ”
But here Chu Muyu didn't seem to wait for the reason he wanted. He laughed, but his face was disapproving, and a trace of resentment and resentment flashed in his eyes when he looked at Xu Lingge. He knew that the queen mother would always be so calm and light on him, but it was precisely because he knew it very clearly that he seemed more and more pathetic. No one knows the endless confusion in his heart.
Thinking of this, Chu Muyu's eyes became deeper and deeper, and he calmly finished the next earth-shattering paragraph.
"The queen mother and Mu Yan, the queen and King Mu, but no one in this world knows, behind this seemingly high-sounding relationship, is the unbreakable deep affection accumulated since childhood sweethearts?"
"You...... Why did you become like this. Can't we talk calmly? The woman's body trembled slightly, and her left hand, which had just been raised, hung down gloomily.
"Why? Why, you ask? Put away your hypocrisy. Have you ever cared about our siblings over the years? You just hide in the nunnery every day, in this Yinshui Palace, and you ask me why this is happening. The man in black condensed his sword eyebrows and said with an angry smile.
"Mu'er......" The woman trembled for a long time, looking at her eldest son with some complicated guilt, but she didn't explain anything, and she didn't know what to say. In vain, she has always had the most desired position for women in the world, but under the palm of the clouds and rain called fate, she was powerless to explain when the people of her own flesh and blood faced the pain in front of her.
"In your heart, all you care about is probably the old obsession, but now it's okay, he seems to have been treating you as he did at the beginning, now you are satisfied," Prince Chu Muyu shouted angrily.
"Shut up" Xu Lingge's face turned pale and screamed out. The hand that was unconsciously waved out froze in mid-air, unable to retract it.
"You... You..., you can't make me believe that you are still the same Mu Yu as before. "That's what Taifu teaches you on weekdays, how can you talk about setting an example in the world in the future...... like this!
Chu Muyu was not angry at all when she heard this, but envied the self who "did not know the etiquette", "rebellious", and "chaotic" in her mouth. Because only in this way can he bravely vent his grief and dissatisfaction.
"I've let you down, haha, Queen Mother, why is this happening? You know it best. His tone was full of rage, as if he wanted to cut a rift in her.
"You evil obstacle, kneel down for me, I knew why I was a mother and son with you today, I gave birth to you and raised you for so many years, I didn't expect you to be so obsessed."
Mother, have you finally admitted it? If you knew this was the case, why did you give birth to me? You think your son doesn't know your thoughts, you can hide it from Huan Yu, you can hide it from your sister, but you can't hide it from me, I know why you hate me so much, because I am the most similar to my father, and when you see me, you are like seeing him" The prince hissed and blamed his mother, but the laughter was full of sadness and crying.
Xu Lingge felt cold to the bone, and her whole body stiffened, but the cold meaning was filled with grief and desolation, and she said in a trembling voice, "You get up, Mu'er, I don't want to explain anything, but you must know that you will always be my son, I will not hate you, let alone abandon you." ”
"Yes, you won't abandon me, where were you when I was sick? Where were you when I was locked up by my father? Where are you when I need my mother's arms? You are just immersed in the grief of losing him, just living in the years of resentment towards your father, you indifferently watched me grow up, indifferently watched the birth of Huan Yu, only my sister can still get a little bit of charity from you, just because her name is "Chu Siyan",
Now my sister has also been married off by you. I grew up without you, without you, my mother" The prince's expression fell into madness, and his expression was hideous and furious.
Xu Lingge's expression was gloomy, his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he suddenly felt a piercing coldness, sadness and pain, and his eyes revealed irresolvable remorse, gloomy and sad. "How so...... How could it be ......" wanted to get closer to Chu Muyu beside her, but found that Chu Muyu, who was originally by her side, suddenly avoided it at this moment. It turned out that the pain was so deep that he couldn't make a sound. But the endless pain will seep into every vein, grinding out the last bit of sobriety.
She muttered, "I don't blame you, I don't blame you..."
"Queen mother, the son is a little tired, if the queen mother has no other instructions, the son will kneel down first" The prince looked at his mother coldly, stroked his sleeves and turned around and walked out of the Yinshui Palace.
Leaving only a heartbroken and painful queen, Xu Lingge held his face and sobbed sadly, the cry was mixed with compassion, desolation, and sadness.
"In troubled times, as men, you all have the right to choose after all, but what about us? Siyan... Thinking about that day, she looked at her daughter who was still smiling below, as if she had an illusion, as if she saw herself. is also so red, such a complicated look, such a forced smile, and so desperate. It seems that the queen mother owes you after all, but fortunately, Siyan still has the protection of your brothers after all, and she will not fall into the same way as me, love can't be, hatred can't. It's just that Chu Muyu can't hear her words.
