283. V One Night Talk
"How do you know that I am leaving the palace because of the people and things in my dreams?" Chu Li took a step forward and asked, his eyes flashing with endless light. "Did you already know that I was going to leave the palace?"
The light in Hua Xiaobai's eyes became even more dazzling.
He smiled wickedly and said, "The queen mother doesn't really think that the emperor will ask Weichen to come to Mo Lige to consult the queen mother late at night, right?" β
Looking at the misty smile in Hua Xiaobai's eyes, Chu Li suddenly understood Hua Xiaobai's purpose of coming here.
It was he who used acupuncture to pull himself back from the dream when he was immersed in the dream. He must have known his condition best.
"Then I won't go around in circles with you, this palace is indeed going out of the palace. In order to find out the person who appeared in the dream of this palace, a cold person wearing an iron mask. Chu Li said bluntly.
Perhaps, Hua Xiaobai may not recognize this person. Chu Li could only use a dead horse as a live horse doctor at this time.
The man standing next to him leaned over and sat on the edge of the table, smiling slightly between his eyes.
"You should actually ask Hua Xiaobai the most now, in fact, it shouldn't be the person who appeared in the queen's mind when she was unconscious. Whether it is a dream or a reality, whether it is real or illusory, these are not the most important things. β
Hua Xiaobai seemed to have deliberately opened the topic, deliberately leading Chu Li to another mystery.
"Then you sue the main palace, what should the main palace care about?" Chu Li asked, "Actually, I was going to look for you, but you came." β
Chu Li thought of the question that was still bothering her just now, "You have been frying the decoction for seven hours, and I heard Huan'er say that when I was seriously ill and unconscious, the emperor broke the decoction?" β
This matter is the most important thing in her mind now.
Hua Xiaobai deliberately couldn't let Chu Li out of the palace like this tonight, and Chu Li had to plan for the worst. also listened to Hua Xiaobai's words, there is some truth, to find out the truth of the matter, you can't rush overnight, you still have to think long-term.
"Queen Mother, do you really have no self in your heart except for others? Do you really think that this time you are seriously ill and in a fever coma, so that a real and illusory vision appears in your mind, and it is really just a result of overwork and fever? β
In Chu Li's eyes at this time, there was only a blur and coldness that he couldn't see through.
"What do you mean......" Chu Li asked in an extremely weak voice-
"Your illness is not just overwork, nor is it just suffering from the cold. It's because your brain has already been hit hard, and the blood congestion has not dissipated, but it is like a long-term wound where blood clots have accumulated in the blood vessels of your brain, and the blood circulation is not smooth, leading to your ......"
The light gauze was curled, and the pale thin lips were stained with a little red.
Chu Li listened to Hua Xiaobai's words, and his eyes were already blurred.
"You mean, I've had a big brain hit? It was a long time ago, but it hasn't been treated? So now...... There's no way to treat it anymore, is it? β
Facing the person in the bronze mirror, she stopped talking for a long time, her teary eyes blurred.
"But...... But why? If you have suffered a severe brain injury early, why has it never been noticed before? No one has ever mentioned this to me. Chu Li asked.
Hua Xiaobai got up, walked behind Chu Li and said, "Maybe it's because I'm afraid that the emperor will blame, or maybe it's because the imperial doctors know that they can't heal, so they have to delay like this." Does the queen still remember...... The thing about amnesia? β
"Could it be that the amnesia is also due to a severe brain injury? But...... I remember it because I had taken medicine myself five years ago and chose to lose my memory. No...... No...... You're saying the potion has been dropped? Chu Li recalled why he was able to give birth to Ye'er when he had a miscarriage, but he lost his memory.
It turned out that the dose of the original potion had been reduced a lot.
My amnesia was not due to the medicine, but because the blood in my brain was crushing the blood vessels. So just now, I was in a coma, and many imperial doctors were helpless, and they didn't dare to explain what the reason was.
Suddenly, Chu Li suddenly realized.
"Xiaobai, if I sue you, I am not from this world. Sooner or later, I'm going to leave your age, do you think I'm joking with you and scaring you? Chu Li closed his eyes and asked.
Because she seemed to recall the shocking scene in her mind in an instant.
The memories that had been lost a long time ago, the dusty memories that had been deprived of her since she arrived at this age, were finally awakened.
"My brain, I did get hit hard. At the time when I should have been saving zΓ i, it was the twenty-first century. I was supposed to be someone else's wedding day, but I chose a paper agreement to marry someone else, but the night I got married...... The man I had loved for a long, long time, lifted my red hijab and died in front of me. β
Chu Li and Hua Xiaobai talked a lot that night.
Many, much more.
"Queen Mother, the bun is combed."
In the blink of an eye, the door was pushed open. "Queen Mother, your breakfast is ready."
Chu Li just raised his haggard face and said to Huan'er who was standing beside him. "Ho, so fast. The main palace originally wanted to go to the Longhui Hall to dine with the emperor. β-
"This..."Huan'er heard this, and put the comb in his hand on the dresser, not knowing what to do-
"Then slave, take the food away." Jing'er didn't dare to stay here for a moment, especially when she looked at Chu Li's pale face.
"Wait!" Huan'er took it upon himself to order, "Let's put it here first." β
Chu was taken aback, she was a bit of a measured person.
Seeing that Chu Li didn't make any other moves, Jing'er stopped and put the meal on the dining table as it was-
"Go down, I'll serve the queen for dinner." Huan'er said softly.
They are all women, and she is also a maid who has served Chu Li for so long, and she has accompanied her through the wind and waves, and she is not shocked. She thought that no one would know Chu Li better than her.
When she was very young, she was revered by thousands of people in the palace around her, and then a palace accident tightened the gate of hell from heaven, and after becoming an orphan of Chu State, she was once again placed by Uncle Longhui and named the princess of Liu Kingdom, changed her name, but was given to the son of the leader of the Western Regions. Then, there was another coup d'Γ©tat because of her, but five years later, she still has such an irreplaceable position in the emperor's heart.
Now, she has become the queen of the mother of the world, the lord of the harem, and her own child has also become the crown prince. It seems that everything is gradually getting better, the emperor is favored, the king of Luyang protects her, and the prince of Hulu is the same. She seems to have everything, but she doesn't seem to be able to grasp anything. A qiΔ is so respectful to outsiders, but she knows, she knows that a qiΔ is not so simple.
Because her eyebrows and eyes have never been stretched, she seems to have been born with a lively and active temperament. In this palace, because of her, she has changed color, because of her, she is angry, she often likes to go out of the palace, Huan'er also knows that she really has something, it seems that she is always so busy-
"Queen Mother, Huan'er is waiting for you to eat." She was indifferent, and picked up a bowl of rice and fed it to Nazhu's lips.
Chu Li looked at her suspiciously, and turned his head again.
"If you insist on going to the main hall to dine with the emperor, please eat a few bites of this meal first." As she spoke, Huan'er couldn't bear to look at Chu Li's pale face.
Even with makeup, it looks even more pale and weak.
She knew that last night, the lights in the Mo Li Pavilion were bright, and the queen mother and the imperial doctor talked for a long time.
"Hongu will eat by itself," she took the rice from Huan'er's hand, "I don't need you to feed it." β
There is no hysterical shouting, no pretending to be pampered, only cold words.
Her thin lips trembled slightly, and her eyes reflected pitiful tears, which swirled but refused to fall.
These, in Huan'er's opinion. The noble and proud queen mother in front of her is just a child at most.
A child who needs to be hurt and cared for. Although, this child is a little cold in his heart, although this child silently suffers injustice in his heart.
In fact, how much she hoped that Chu Li could talk to herself when something happened, even if it was a big cry.
"Come with me and go for a walk in the back garden."
Huan'er attached herself slightly, watching Chu Li just take two bites-
"This..."She was obviously a little overwhelmed, her body was still weak, after a night of tossing, and she hadn't eaten much, how could she just go outside in the winter cold?
"Help me up," she said, ignoring the embarrassment on Huan'er's face beside her, and took her hand and got up.
Her hands are so cold!
Huan'er was silent, but her face became more and more solemn.
trembling all the way to the back garden, except for a few trees introduced by foreign dynasties, the others have already fallen into decay and decay.
Why did she insist on coming here?
Glancing at Chu Li, who had a hint of subtle expectation in his eyes, Huan'er's heart was filled with a hint of complicated feelings.
"Mother, go back. The weather is cold, your illness is just getting better, if you freeze again......" Huan'er put the cloak in her hand on Chu Li in distress, but Chu Li stopped her words.
However, she was still willing to stand here and wait. Let the cold wind of winter howl in gusts of time, and let the cold of disappointment emanating from the bottom of her heart penetrate her body little by little.
Huan'er could see that Chu Li was waiting for something.
But the empty expectation in her eyes seemed to know that this waiting and hope was simply small and unexpected, but she still had to insist on waiting-
"Lord Commander, please go back! It's windy here, and your body is still delicate, how can you bear it like this! Huan'er couldn't help but persuade Chu Li to return to Mo Lige again.
Chu Li raised his eyes and glanced at Huan'er, whose eyes were blown by the cold wind of early winter, tears flowed out, lowered his head, took out a Su embroidered brocade handkerchief from his cuffs, and handed it to Huan'er's palm.
