Chapter 101: The Heart Has Turned to Ashes

Seeing that Chu Yi's eyes were still full of incomprehension, Ping Die reminded him again, "You have never asked me about my life experience, have you ever thought about why I am a woman and come to Beijing alone?" ”

Chu Yi pondered for a while, and when his eyes came into contact with the look in Ping Die's eyes, he was a little more shocked. Pingdie asked him with a smile, "Right now, does the emperor want to arrest the people's daughter and go back to the prison for interrogation?" Pingdie's gaze did not dodge at all, nor was he afraid.

Chu Yi looked at her and said lightly, "No matter who you are, you can't affect our relationship, the first emperor is gone, this is not an excuse." ”

Chu Yi didn't care in his heart, because he thought that this was an old thing, the first emperor had passed away, and this case should be forgotten with the first emperor.

So whether Pingdie is settled down or not, it is the same for him, but the woman he loves.

Pingdie laughed, laughing at his innocence. "The descendants of the traitorous prince's family are still alive, even if you can rest assured, the officials of the court will not rest assured. Once my identity is known, let alone staying in the palace, even this life should not be saved. ”

Chu Yi couldn't understand her thoughts at all, and he said firmly, "No, I won't let you be hurt, if you stay in the palace, I will be able to protect you." ”

Ping Die didn't care about his words, and said something irrelevant, "The emperor is so confident, is Ping Die's feelings for you real?" ”

Chu Yi obviously didn't expect her to say this, and his expression on his face did not change, but the hand he placed on Ping Die's waist increased slightly, and then he said indifferently, "Let's talk about things, don't be involved." ”

Pingdie shook his head, and there was some helplessness in his tone, "You really think." The encounter between you and me is the fate of God? ”

This time, Chu Yi didn't speak. just silently listened to Pingdie's next words, "I originally wanted to find a chance to enter the palace. Then he killed him with his own hands. The hatred of the exterminating clan is not shared. ”

Ping Die's gaze was a little calm, and his tone suddenly increased, "Who would have thought that tyrant would have such a short life, and he would die before I could find a way to enter the palace." ”

Although Chu Yi didn't have any impression of his father, he still frowned and said with a little displeasure, "Don't talk about him like that." He is my father after all. ”

Ping Die looked at Chu Yi, there was mockery in her eyes, and she sneered, "Then what do you want me to call him?" I have a blood feud with him, do you still want me to respectfully call him long live? ”

Chu Yi said hesitantly, "Why is it all the blame on my father and emperor back then, since it is a crime of treason, it should be beheaded." ”

Ping Die's gaze suddenly became sharper, and her voice was not as relaxed as Fang Cai. She scolded, "What a foolish father and son! The wrongful killing of a loyal minister caused a bloody case, and it was taken for granted? ”

Chu Yi faintly sensed something, and he asked rhetorically. "You say that bloody case was an unjust case?"

Pingdie didn't answer his question, but asked, "What does the emperor think." Marquis Anling, as the prime minister of our dynasty, is above 10,000 people under one person. My father has no intention of the throne, why should he be treasonous? ”

"The Marquis of Anling has been an official in the court for generations. has always been loyal to the country, Wen has a father, and Wu has an eldest brother. When was there a difficulty in the court, didn't I do my best to solve problems for the first emperor? ”

Ping Die's gaze deepened suddenly, and his expression was disdainful, "That faint monarch saw that my An family was leaning towards the government and the opposition, and was slandered by traitors, so he decided that my An family had the ambition to seize power and usurp the throne!" If you make an excuse, you have to be beheaded all over the house, how can such a mediocre and confused person be the emperor! ”

Chu Yi obviously didn't expect that there would be such twists and turns in this, he only said that Pingdie had hatred in his heart, but he didn't want the truth of the matter to be like this.

Even though Chu Yi is an emperor, he is not unaware of the suffering of the world, so in the face of the unappeaseable anger in Ping Die's heart at this time, he can understand and even be willing to tolerate it.

Chu Yi hugged Pingdie, hoping that he could give her some strength, "Pingdie, the past is gone, people have to look forward, I promise that I will let people retry the case from 20 years ago, if it is an unjust case, you will definitely be returned to a clean house, so good?" ”

Ping Die turned her head, her eyes wavering a little, but in the end she just shook her head, "Does the emperor really think that we should go back?" ”

Chu Yi's heart tightened, unwilling to understand the meaning of her words, he pulled Pingdie to stand up, and patted the dust on her body for her, "It's not early, go back to the palace with me first, and talk about it tomorrow." ”

Pingdie was still moved by him, "Your Majesty, please don't deceive yourself." ”

Chu Yi's movements paused, he withdrew his hand, turned around and stood in front of Ping Die, quietly looking into her eyes.

Ping Die also looked at him, the two looked at each other for a long time, and Ping Die suddenly turned short and knelt in front of Chu Yi.

Chu Yi's eyes were calm, and he didn't even look down at him, just stared at the night in the distance, "What are you doing here?" ”

Pingdie lowered her head, her voice was a little muffled, "Pingdie, the folk girl, has been lingering in the palace for many days, it's time to go back." I also hope that the emperor will raise his noble hand, let go of the butterfly and leave, and from then on, the green mountains and green waters will never see each other again. ”

Chu Yi's gaze turned cold, and he asked firmly, "This is what you want to say at the moment?" ”

Pingdie didn't speak, but the meaning was already self-evident.

Chu Yi's anger in the court for many days finally vented on Ping Die's body, he pointed at Ping Die angrily, and even his fingers were trembling, "I think about how to get the courtiers to accept you every day, thinking about how to keep you in the palace, but you think about how to escape every day?" ”

Pingdie knelt on the ground, lowering her head and not seeing her emotions clearly, but Chu Yi understood what she meant, she must leave.

There was a hint of decadence and dazedness in Chu Yi's voice, he took two steps back, slowly put his hands behind his back, the sadness and anger flashed on his face, and he disappeared completely, and he asked the last sentence expressionlessly.

"Pingdie, I ask you, over the years, it has been ten years since we first met. No matter who you are, you tell me, in good conscience, have you ever liked me? ”

"The day before yesterday, the Queen Mother's birthday, we met again, these days in the palace, have you ever had another time, thinking that you will be with me, and grow old together?"

Chu Yi's words came out, and even the pronunciation of the last four words was trembling.

Pingdie couldn't hear it, but she couldn't give any response.

After standing silently for a long time, Chu Yi waited for his answer.

"Never." Ping Die slowly raised his head, looked at Chu Yi with those clear eyes, and said clearly word by word, "Ping Die has never loved Chu Yi in this life." ”

Chu Yi's eyes suddenly tightened, and he stared at Ping Die's eyes tightly, wanting to see the slightest falsehood in them, but he didn't.

To this day, Chu Yi understands. Love someone and be willing to give up everything you have. Even so, the man still dismisses it, and in the end, he doesn't want to do it in this life, but that's it. (To be continued.) )
