The Emperor stopped two inches away from her. After all, he was born with his hands, and he couldn't get down his hands when he blinked at her big eyes...... mouth, Qiwen realized this, and felt that closing her eyes again would be too much of a trace, so she had to turn her eyes away in a panic.

The smile on the emperor's lips deepened slightly, and he was stunned for a moment, but he still didn't continue, only tightened his arms, and held her in his arms for a while before giving up.

Alas, it's really green. Qiwen breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time, she couldn't help but be disappointed, and quietly licked her lips. It's really a little curious, most of the sons and daughters of ordinary big families have had a room at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and he is a prince in his twenties, can he really not touch a woman?

The moon has risen to the middle of the sky, huge pink and white, the sky is like a dark blue brocade, dyed with a layer of luster by the moonlight, empty and remote.

"Today is fifteen."

"Well, it's fifteen."

The fifteenth day of September was not a special day, and at this point, both of them thought of the same thing: today was the day when he should visit the Empress.

Although he just went there yesterday, he will still go today, and try to stay with the queen for a meal, find more topics to talk about, and then leave. It's just a point.

"Have you always wanted to ask me something?" The emperor asked.

The queen's affairs, he ignored the affairs of the concubines, there has been no matter of the concubines, and there is no matter of talents, she must be curious, she must have endured it for a long time.

"Yes, yes, but none of them are necessarily good, so I don't want to ask, and you don't have to." Qiwen said lightly, but changed her mind, "But if you think it's more refreshing to say it, just say it, I'm willing to listen." ”

Some not-so-good past events are mentioned to expose the scars, but some scars that have never grown well are painful and itchy and tormented from time to time, and even ulcers and pus, so it is better to uncover them, maybe it will be better to heal.

The emperor was still smiling, and slowly opened his lips and said: "You were right in the past, He Xin'er, He Cairen, I really didn't execute her because I found out that she was meticulous. In fact, she is timid and weak, and she can't be a spy at all. Yuan Ying chose her, probably by chance, after all, the concubine can rarely meet the prince. After I said a few words, she was confused, pulling my sleeve and crying at a loss. I promised her that I could not blame her in the past and leave her to continue to live in the palace, and she didn't succeed in any evil anyway. She said that unless I could truly love her, she would not have the confidence to escape Yuan Ying's control with my strength. ”

He paid attention to the change in Qiwen's expression as he spoke, and did not find any fluctuations in her feelings, it seemed that he was indeed too careful, and the sentence "If you don't love me, I have to die." "It's just a coincidence. He had the heart to ask about it, but he felt that it was not appropriate at the moment, so he put up with it for the time being.

Of course, Qiwen wouldn't find out how He Cairen's fate was similar to her own - there was no resemblance at all, she just heard a little question: "She really likes the third prince?" ”

The Emperor nodded affirmatively: "Otherwise, what do you think with someone as weak as her would have the motivation to spy on me?" I once asked her if she was coerced by Yuan Ying, and she clearly told me that the coercion was there, but she didn't care, the key was that she was in love with Yuan Ying and couldn't extricate herself, but Yuan Ying was ruthless to her, and asked her to come close to me, which made her disheartened and almost lifeless. She wants me to be affectionate with her, but she just wants to ask me for comfort. ”

Qiwen secretly gritted her teeth and was indignant, especially if she admitted that she loved others so much that she couldn't extricate herself and wanted to get his love, how shameless!

"Then she committed suicide?"

The emperor nodded again, and his face showed self-deprecation: "It stands to reason that a woman who claims to have a love for Yuan Ying can ask me to have love?" It's almost ridiculous. But at that time, seeing that she was so pitiful, I couldn't refuse stiffly, and let her die, so I told her that I was willing to give it a try. But she looked at me blankly for a moment, then shook her head and said, 'You're not him after all.' ’”

His face narrowed slightly, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes, "That's right, I'm not Yuan Ying after all." Then I watched her swallow the poison in front of me, and I didn't pity her more. ”

After all, he is not the king of Tan, the king of Tan forced a woman who loved him to approach another man against his will, but after he learned the truth, he still gave this woman a chance to survive, and even reluctantly agreed to such an unreasonable request.

These two people are indeed the difference between cloud and mud, but who is the cloud and who is the mud?

Seeing Qiwen frowning and looking indignant, the emperor laughed again: "You think it's unbelievable, don't you?" Yuan Ying doesn't believe that you will take a fancy to me, and you still think that he is arrogant. It's a pity that over the years, I've seen the fact that this is the case, and everyone is partial to Yuanying, without exception. My parents thought it was ...... It's the queen, I thought she was an exception, I thought she was in love with me, so I chose her as the queen, originally, I was so suspicious......"

He faded his smile slightly, revealing a melancholy and loneliness, "I have long lost hope that I can meet a woman who is happy with each other, and I didn't have the heart to marry after returning to Beijing at that time, but my mother lobbied me repeatedly on the grounds that my father was seriously ill, so that my father could see me get married in his lifetime, so I had to agree." I also thought that the queen was Zhining, and it was not bad, at least we could talk about it when we were young. Maybe she's really an exception, and she hasn't had a heart for Yuan Ying. I didn't expect that on the night of the wedding, I clearly heard Zhi Ning's whisper, calling Yuan Ying's name......"

Qiwen's pupils shrank, and her face turned pale. On the wedding night, what kind of blow should it be to hear your wife calling someone else's name in her voice?

"She has married me, Concubine Ning and the others can still be released from the palace, but she has no way out. I also thought about being confused and being a worldly couple with her, but ...... How can a woman who will call Yuanying's name in a dream make me get close? ”

He shook Qiwen's hand tightly, "I regret it all the time these days, if I insisted on my opinion at that time, how good would it be if I didn't marry her?" Now it has not only delayed her, but also wronged you. If I hadn't been marrying a wife until now, my parents would have been anxious, and they would have supported you as much as I wanted to lift you up. With them to speak, it's a lot easier to do a qiē, and you don't have to worry about your identity. ”

"No...... I'm not ......" Qiwen was incoherent, her heart was like a mess, and she didn't know what she wanted to express. She still has the leisure to think about her own status, and her heart is full of distress for him. How could he be so unlucky, his parents, relatives, subordinates, servants, and even the queens and concubines around him all regarded him and King Tan as a difference between him and the king of Tan. What the hell!

Just that playboy? What the hell!

"You must be tempted to ask me why I never got married." The emperor ignored her touch, and directly substituted for the next topic, which did immediately attract Qiwen's attention.

"According to the old practice, the vassal king should wait until the twenty weak crowns, at least after the marriage in the capital, to go to the vassal king. I set off for Guanzhong at the age of fifteen, and outsiders thought that it was because my father and emperor posthumously crowned Yuan Ying's biological mother as his successor and gave Yuan Ying the identity of his son-in-law, so I ran away with resentment, in fact, it was just a coincidence. ”

It's been seven years, and the scar that hasn't been touched for seven years, once he touches it again, he realizes that he is no longer painful, "I ...... that year It's the beginning of love, and I accidentally had some feelings for a small palace girl next to me. Her name is Yin'er, she is a year older than me, and she is in charge of my diet. I know that there are at least two or three palace maids around Yuan Ying who have been used, so I feel that I like her, and maybe I can learn from Yuan Ying's example, take her by my side and ...... with her Get up close. ”

It's been seven years, and he, a twenty-two-year-old man, still has some of the shyness of the past, and even the emperor himself can't help but laugh at himself.

"I didn't think much about it at the time, so I went and told my mother about it. I rarely took the initiative to ask my mother, but after hearing this, the queen mother ridiculed me and said that such a small thing is worth my fearful exploration and serious running to beg her. I myself had no choice but to go directly to Yin'er and say that the queen mother sent the female history around me to pass the word for me. Thinking about it, it will only be some official words, telling her that I have taken a fancy to her, and I want her to serve me well in the future, so as not to say anything excessive. Unexpectedly, after I went back that day, I never saw Yin'er again......"

Qiwen stared at him blankly, already guessing a little bit where things would go, and a sour feeling in her heart rose little by little.

"Later, it was Wang Zhi who told me, someone saw Yin'er running to the Yuan Ying Palace, kneeling on the ground, pulling Yuan Ying's robe, crying and begging Yuan Ying to accept her, claiming that she would rather be a rough palace maid in the Yuan Ying Palace, and not follow me. It is said that in the end, Yuan Ying persuaded her a few words, did not take care of her, did not reproach her for her faux pas, and let her go. After another half a day, Yin'er was found...... Died in the well behind Renshou Palace. ”

Qiwen's whole body was cold, and she even shivered. How did things come to this! It's just a subordinate, not to mention that he is the prince, even if he is a young master of an ordinary squire's family, once he sees it, he will just start directly, and he will solemnly make peace with his mother, how much respect does he have for that little palace maid? How did it end up as if he was a bully and □□ committed suicide?

The emperor cast his gaze into the distance, and did not show any sad look, still smiling faintly: "I can't figure it out, after so many years, in fact, I haven't figured it out, so she came to me and said that she didn't want to." I've been with her for nearly two years, and I've never scolded her, nor have I scolded anyone else in front of her, I'm just plain and silent, how can I make her feel so terrible, so unreasonable, and ...... I'd rather die than say a word of truth to me. Why, Yuan Ying is the god in her mind, and I am the devil in her eyes? ”

yes, how so! Qiwen also said the same thing in her heart.

The girl who fell in love with his first love actually looked at him like this, how big a blow should this be to a prince who is just beginning to fall in love and has high self-esteem? No wonder he ran away angrily, and he would become so inferior, so he couldn't believe that a woman could love him but turn a blind eye to the third prince. His self-confidence in this regard has long been destroyed.

His narration stopped, and the two fell into silence, except for a slight astringent sound when the night wind blew through the row of ten glazed beasts, as if it were a low sound.

The emperor slowly turned his gaze back to Qiwen's face, and when he saw that she was stunned for a long time, he suddenly sobbed and cried, shedding two lines of clear tears.

The emperor was shocked: "What's wrong with you?" ”

She took his hand with both hands, held it tightly to her chest, and cried silently: "The third prince is so good?" Oh, just his virtue! Obviously, you are the one who is a thousand times better than him! Those who love Him and despise you are blind! I don't have long eyes! ”

The emperor laughed and laughed, and his heart was also very moved, he pulled her into his arms, stroked her hair and gently persuaded: "Okay, okay, they don't have long eyes, as long as you are long." What are you crying about? I thought you wouldn't be a crying person with such a strong temperament, but I didn't expect that only a few days have passed, and I have seen you cry several times. ”

Qiwen couldn't help but scold herself for being inexplicable, I've seen so many romance dramas and romances, as for being so unseen in the world, do you sprinkle golden beans at every turn? But these tears are not controllable by themselves at all, and they are generally spilled out, and they can't be stopped if they want to. As soon as he was held in his arms, he was even more like a child who had been greatly wronged, and he cried for a while before he could barely stop.

"I didn't bring a veil." Qiwen looked at him pitifully with tears on her face.

"Then use your sleeves." The emperor is not so easily fooled.

Qiwen didn't want to take the handkerchief anymore, so she had to take the sleeve of her shirt to solve it, blinked her eyes and hesitated for a while, and asked timidly: "I want to ask you something, why do you ...... Will you hear the Queen's whispers? I heard that the history of Tongzhong in the palace has not recorded any of the mothers. ”

The emperor suddenly made a wooden face: "Who did you listen to?" ”

Qiwen continued to blink: "So, it's a rumor? ”

"......" The emperor is very angry, how the palace talks about him, you can know it just by thinking about it, but this doesn't mean that she has a reason to come to him in person to confirm, at this time, he doesn't want to maintain a master-servant relationship with her, but she should also take care of her identity as a girl, right?

Regarding whether he had slept with the queen, she dared to ask so bluntly?

"On the night of the wedding, I slept with the queen all night." Why would she care about this, it's easy to imagine that she is jealous of him. So although the emperor was very angry, he patiently explained to her, "Kimono, I just slept all night." ”

A stone fell in Qiwen's heart, and she turned her head with a red face in hindsight, and changed the topic sharply: "The third prince robbed you of so many good things, you must hate him to death, right?" ”

"No, I didn't hate him." The emperor shook his head indifferently, "What, you don't believe it?" ”

Qiwen pursed her lips, and almost wrote the two big words "don't believe" on her face: "I haven't even shied away from you with unfilial words, you don't tell me the truth, you can't say it, right?" ”

The Emperor smiled dumbly: "Is it that unbelievable? His parents favored him, Yin'er favored him, the queen favored him, and the palace people also looked at him well, but it was not won by Yuan Ying himself, it was just given to him voluntarily by those people. Although He Xin'er's matter is that he is wrong, I don't care about that woman, and I don't care much about it. Yuan Ying has been cultivated by his father as a prince for all these years, but once the throne was returned to me, he was dissatisfied, and he made some moves, and it was understandable, why hate him for this? ”

Qiwen's eyes widened, and she couldn't understand it at all: "But, since Shengyu and He Shengliang, you never thought that if there was no such person as him in the world, those benefits would be yours?" ”

The emperor shook his head, and showed a self-deprecating look: "As far as I know, Yuan Ying never intended to provoke the relationship between my parents and me—at least not before my father made me emperor. If I want to hate him, it is better to hate others for not knowing gold and jade, or to hate myself for not being born as pleasing to him, so why hate him? ”

If you don't talk about the difference between cloud and mud, Qiwen's eyes are wider, and the gaze that looks at him is more admiration than admiration. There is really such a good person as him in the world.

"He always comes to dismantle me and make trouble now, I'm a little annoyed that he doesn't know the general situation, but I can't talk about hate. But," his face turned a little colder, "the one I am most dissatisfied with him is for you." ”

The moon and stars are scarce, and the eyes of the girl next to her reflect the moonlight, which is brighter than the stars.

The emperor took a breath and said with a bit of indignation: "He wants to fight for the throne, and it is forgivable, but he shouldn't know my heart for you and still come to pester you." Fortunately, so far, his actions have made you and me closer and closer, and he has not let us have any suspicions. But he's afraid he won't stop there...... Anyway, the only thing I can call him angry about now is that he thinks about you! ”

turned his head to look at Qiwen again, but saw her facing to the side, as if she was wandering. He was a little displeased, how could he say this as a confession, why didn't she react?

In fact, Qiwen is not unresponsive, but overreacting. After experiencing the series of feelings just now, his favorability unconsciously rose sharply, and just now, I heard a sharp system alarm.

System: Yan zhòng warning! The player's favorability of the male protagonist has risen to 72 points, which has been on par with the male protagonist's favorability, and there is a trend that continues to rise, please take measures immediately, otherwise the system will terminate the player's heartbeat!

measures, what can be done? It's impossible to say that you hate him at all, you can only hurry up and win a little more of his favor, but how can you fight for it?

The cool breeze was blowing, but Qiwen was covered in a cold sweat, oh my God, if she stopped her heartbeat here, she would have to roll down to the ground and fall into a face! When the time comes, don't expect to win back his sympathy, pity and resurrection.

"You ......" The emperor saw that she seemed to be nervous and panicked, leaned over slightly to ask, but she actually stood up and threw herself into his arms, and before she had time to make any judgment, he felt a warm breeze blowing on his face, and a strange touch of soft and warm humidity came from his lips, and the thick and long eyelashes like crow feathers were already imminent.

She turned out to be, unexpectedly ...... The emperor's whole body was stiff, and he felt that his soul was not possessed by his body. If you want to talk about enjoyment, it seems that he is also enjoying, but he has no heart to think about it at all.
