Chapter 112: The Incident
In the daze, there were many figures dangling in front of them, like paper figures in a marquee, turning one by one. I struggled to get up and see their faces, but my eyelids grew darker and darker, and their figures blurred like illusions. My consciousness was also a white mess.
When I woke up again, all the vague figures were gone, and I was alone on the couch. The entire Cuizhuxuan was empty, and the broken bowls of Shenying on the ground had also been cleaned up, and everything in the bedroom was still the same, as if nothing had ever happened.
I wanted to shout someone, but my throat burned and I could only make a "whoop" sound. I was a little stunned, what the hell is going on?
The hand fell on the stomach, and the heart was bottomless, is the little thing in it still there? I distinctly remember Shen Ying pushing me, hitting the corner of the table, and a palpitating pain in my lower abdomen.
Child, are you still there? I asked in my mind. No one could answer me, I just felt that the whole Cuizhuxuan was like a dead sea.
I struggled to get up, unable to scream, so I fumbled my way out of bed, threw off my shoes, and walked out the door. Pushing open the door of Cuizhuxuan, Xian'e blocked my way.
Wait, this team of immortals is so eye-catching, why have they never seen it before? What about the original Xian'e of Xiaoxiang Pavilion? What about the toad? What about Yu'er? And what about the purple cuckoo? I couldn't say a word, my throat just burned. Am I sick again, or was someone feeding me dumb medicine? I vaguely remember that when my amnesia was at its worst, I couldn't make a full voice in my throat. But now I suddenly lost my voice, as if it was not the same as then.
I was talking to myself silently in my heart, and the cold-faced fairy at the head of the company did not salute. In a businesslike tone, he said: "The Queen Mother has an order, and when Concubine Xiang wakes up, she will take her to the Queen Mother's Palace to see the driver." โ
See the driver? Is it to see the Heavenly Monarch or the Queen Mother of the West? That's when I realized that losing my voice was such a painful thing. Crazy.
Xian'e couldn't help but say, pulled me and left. One of the two men drove me with one hand, and the other surrounded me from front to back, left and right, as if they were afraid that I would escape.
When I arrived at the Queen Mother's Palace, I walked through the layers of palace rooms and came to the main hall.
Above the main hall, the Queen Mother of the West sat cold-blooded and lonely. Sitting beside her was the Heavenly Monarch. The Heavenly Monarch is as quiet as water, like a deep pool. His gaze lowered and fell to the ground. I couldn't see his face.
Xian'e pushed me. Kick me in the foot, and I fall to my knees. With a "poof", his knee touched the white jade ground, and he immediately felt pain and numbness. I groaned. Tianjun's body trembled. Keep your head up. The four eyes are facing each other, the lightning is lightning, and the vicissitudes of life.
My heart is hammered. What is the source of such a deep and deep pain in the eyes of the Heavenly Monarch? I'm completely at a loss in my heart.
"Go, pull up the Xian'e of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion!" The Queen Mother of the West scolded coldly.
Xian'e took the order and left, and after a while, Bao Chan, Yu'er, Zijuan and others were brought up, kicked on them a few times, and fell on my side one by one, I was anxious to help them, only to find that several people were whip scars and bloodstains.
Who tortured them? I don't even ask, I know that it was instructed by the Queen Mother of the West.
"Sisterโ" Bao Chan, Yu'er, and Zijuan hugged me and called out to mourn.
"Kneel down!" The fairy dog of the Queen Mother Palace is fierce and vicious.
I gave Bao Chan and the others a comforting look, and the three of them had to wait for Ai Ai to kneel beside me. Zijuan knelt on my right side, and Bao Toad Yu'er knelt next to my left.
We put our hands on the ground, our heads bowed, and listened quietly to the Queen Mother of the West. My sense of foreboding deepened, and I knew that I was already meat on the chopping block.
The voice of the Queen Mother of the West sounded coldly: "Idle people wait to retreat." โ
As soon as he said that, there was a sound of rustling footsteps behind him. Then the hall fell into a deathly silence, and I could hear the sound of my own sweat falling to the ground.
"Say, whose child is in Concubine Xiang's belly?"
Although I had a hunch, I was poked on the spot, and my back stiffened. I didn't dare to look up at the Heavenly Monarch, I was afraid to see his disappointed and painful eyes.
Bao Chan and Yu'er were silent, and Zijuan was confused: "The child in my sister's belly? What are you kidding, how can my sister get pregnant? โ
"You have to ask Concubine Xiang herself."
Zijuan had already turned her head to look at me, her eyes full of inquiry.
I couldn't speak, I was completely dumb.
"Sister, how could you get pregnant? Defend yourself! Who framed you like this? Zijuan was worried.
Where can I speak, I have already guessed that I suddenly lost my voice, it must be the hands and feet of the Queen Mother of the West, who fed me dumb medicine. I just don't know if I'll be so dumb from now on, or if this medicine is only temporary.
"Sister, why don't you speak?" Zijuan was so anxious that she was about to cry, and kept pulling my clothes.
Bao Toad persuaded: "Zijuan, don't get excited! Sister Xiangfei felt uncomfortable enough. โ
Yes, I'm miserable, I'm uncomfortable, I can't speak.
"Bao Chan, I think you know, and your Concubine Xiang refuses to say it, so you can say it for her."
The Queen Mother of the West, this black-bellied old witch! Am I reluctant to say? I was fed dumb medicine by her! If I say that the father of the child is Shen Ying, see what she will do!
"I'm ......," Bao Toad looked at me in embarrassment. She knew that I was pregnant, but she didn't know who the father of the child was! Even if she knows the truth, how can she say it without me speaking first?
I shook my head at Bao Toad, motioning for her to ignore it. Let's all shut up! If you want to kill or chop, listen to it.
"Say! Who is the evil seed in Concubine Xiang's belly! The Queen Mother of the West slapped the table, her voice cold.
I jumped to my feet, and when I looked up, I met the eyes of the Heavenly King. He looked at me faintly, and with just one glance, he had already spoken a thousand words.
"Mother, you are angry, I didn't talk to my mother beforehand." The Heavenly Monarch spoke. He was respectful, humble and forbearing, and whispered to the Queen Mother of the West. "The child in Jiangzhu's belly is mine, I want to wait for the ceremony to be made public after the seal, and it will be more natural, I don't want my mother to misunderstand, my mother should not be angry, it's all my fault, Jiangzhu is pregnant, she should be allowed to recuperate. You can't kneel like that anymore. What does Mother think? โ
"Heavenly Monarch-Jade Emperor-Haotian-" The Queen Mother of the West changed her title three times in a row, and her anger was depressed.
The Heavenly Monarch no longer waited for the Queen Mother of the West to show me, and walked straight to me, and he stretched out his hand to me, which was as warm as jade, with fair skin and clear lines.
The countless bitterness in my chest turned into a stream of heat swirling in my eyes.
"Concubine Xiang, go back with me!" Tianjun said softly, his tone calm. Others may not be able to hear the waves. It's very heartwarming to my ears.
What face do I have to him?
Tianjun had already pulled me up, I knelt for a long time, my feet were numb, and I stumbled and fell into his arms. Tianjun pursed his lips. Picked me up horizontally. He also instructed Bao Chan and the others: "A few of you hurry back to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion." It's time to heal wounds, it's time to take medicine! With that, he hugged me and strode out of the Queen Mother's Palace
"Jade Emperorโ" Behind him was the voice of the Queen Mother of the West, who was so angry that she couldn't do it.
The Heavenly Monarch turned a deaf ear. He didn't look back, just hugged me and walked out.
As soon as I arrived at the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Tianjun put me down from his arms, and I hurriedly knelt down, my body shaking. Where did Bao Chan and the others dare to heal their wounds, kneeling in a line beside me, just like me, trembling all over.
The Heavenly Monarch was silent, and as far as I could see, his golden boots, inlaid with the most ornate jade, were particularly dazzling.
The silence of the Heavenly Monarch made people shudder. I know that I annoyed him, I know that I broke his heart, but how can I make up for it? At this point, it's a mess, and there's nothing I can do about it.
"Tianjun, Sister Xiangfei must have been framed, Tianjun don't believe them......" It was Zijuan who was pleading and pleading, she had been sick recently, and she didn't know about the secret knot of my pearl fetus.
Although Bao Chan and Yu'er have not been confirmed by me, they are smart women who have already found clues. The two of them had gone to pull the purple juan.
Tianjun finally spoke: "You three retreat first, and deal with the injuries on your body first." โ
"Yes." The three of them sobbed quietly and retreated silently.
In the entire Cuizhu Xuan, there were only me and Tianjun left, and it was as quiet as death, and the sound of the needle landing could be heard clearly.
I wanted to tell him I'm sorry, but my voice felt like I was imprisoned, and I couldn't make any sound.
"Don't you have anything to explain to me?" Tianjun's voice trembled slightly, and I realized that he was also trying to calm down.
Although I have nothing to explain, I have thousands of apologies that I want to tell him, but I can't say anything, I can't say anything.
Tianjun let out a long sigh, "When you figure it out, you can come to me, and we'll think about it in the long run." โ
The pair of gold-encrusted boots in front of me moved, and I finally took a step. The hem of the gorgeous dragon robe swayed with the movement of the boots. I watched as those boots went away. Tears smudged the stumbling back into a cloud of ink.
I want to explain, I want to apologize, don't go, come back!
I shouted in my heart, but I couldn't make a sound.
He sat on the ground until it was dark. Until Zijuan, Bao Chan, and Yu'er came to take charge of the lamp. When the three of them saw me sitting alone on the ground, they panicked. Yu'er lit the lamp, and the whole room lit up. The purple toad helped me to sit on the couch.
My head was still a mess and I couldn't think.
"With your body in mind, Sister Xiangfei should not abuse her body." It was Bao Toad who spoke.
My heart fluttered, is my child still there? I opened my mouth to confirm, but I couldn't speak.
"This child is the blood and bones of the Heavenly Monarch, and it is the dragon fetus, my sister must take care of it." Zijuan seemed to have believed the expedient words of the Heavenly Monarch to save me.
"Sister Xiangfei, why don't you keep talking?" Yu'er was still shrewd and sensed that something was wrong.
I gestured to her, and Yu'er understood, and hurriedly went to get the four treasures of the study. Bao Chan took a red low table and put it on the couch, I dipped my pen in ink, and wrote the words "Mother-in-law" on rice paper.
Zijuan asked, "Sister wants to see Ana?" โ
I nodded.
"The Queen Mother's Palace can't be easily entered, so I'll find the Shenying attendant! No, he's a prince now! When Zijuan said this, the man had already flown out of the house. I can't stop it. That's it, let her go. (To be continued......)
