Chapter 56: After all, there is no going back to the past

Qin Yuan walked back slowly, and when she reached the fork in the road, Qin Yuan looked at the road in the distance, and said to Zhang Dehai behind her, "You go back first, and the concubine will walk back from the road by herself." Zhang Dehai took a look, "Master, it is a long way to walk from this road to the Anshen Temple, and there are few people who usually walk this road." ”

Qin Yuan shook her head slowly, "This concubine doesn't want to go back to the Temple of An so early. Zhang Dehai said with a little worry, "The master is pregnant now, so let the slave accompany him." ”

"No need, this concubine wants to be alone." , Qin Yuan didn't wait for Zhang Dehai to answer, and walked towards Yongdao.

On the long road, neatly paved with square bricks and stones, occasionally you can see one or two eunuchs and palace maids hurrying by, on the silent road, Qin Yuan walked slowly and unhurriedly, her mind was full of Qiao Chang lying in a pool of blood, Qin Yuan didn't feel a little afraid, but felt miserable and sad for Qiao Changzai, even if Qiao Changzai didn't die in the hands of Concubine Yi today, Concubine Wan would not keep her in the future, she couldn't escape death after all.

The corners of Qin Yuan's mouth raised indifferently, maybe what kind of ending would it be if she entered the deep palace, but what was her fate? Qin Yuan felt for a while that in this deep palace, life was too fragile, maybe she would die one day, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, maybe next year, these are all very likely.

Now she finally understands why everyone in the palace is afraid of Yi Guifei and respects Yi Guifei, not because Yi Guifei has a position above 10,000 people under one person in the harem, but everyone is afraid of Yi Guifei's ruthlessness, if she is provoked, it is equivalent to having no way to live. Thinking about his journey, if he hadn't been spoiled by the Queen Mother and helped by Concubine Yi, maybe he wouldn't have lived today.

As the daughter of a general, her status and status are more powerful, everyone looks up to her, the emperor is more fortunate, and every time she encounters a crisis, the queen mother and the concubine Yi help her survive safely, and she has never solved a crisis independently, because of this, she will never learn to be strong.

Now in the face of Qingcang's difficulties, she finally sobered up, without the protection of the Queen Mother and Concubine Yi, she has become too weak and small, what is the trick she used to deal with Qingcang? It's just insignificant, she wants to become resolute and powerful, she no longer needs the protection of others, she wants to become like Concubine Yi, so that everyone is afraid of her, even if her hands are stained with blood, it doesn't matter, she will eventually finish this harem road, not for the honor and disgrace of the family, not for the glory of the powerful, but completely for herself! When Qin Yuan thought of this, her face became firm, and the fierceness in her eyes revealed a hint of determination.

Maybe it was because of the excitement of the moment, prompting the pace to speed up a lot, just at the corner of the fork in the road, Qin Yuan saw a figure coming over from a distance, and he didn't need to look closely to know who Lu Dao was, his mood was a little heavier, his face became a little indifferent, and Qin Yuan walked slowly.

When the two met and stood up, Qin Yuan slowly bowed and said, "The concubine asks Prince Mu for peace." Qingyu looked at Qin Yuan with a complicated face, feeling that although Qin Yuan was standing in front of him, it was out of reach, Qingyu had a serious face and frowned in annoyance, "Do you have to use an honorific title on me?" ”

Qin Yuan straightened up, although the corners of her mouth rose slightly, there was a faint hint of indifference, "It is the rule for concubines to use honorific titles for you. ”

"Qin Yuan! You can't do that! Qingyu finally questioned uncontrollably, Qin Yuan didn't seem to hear it, and blessed her body and said, "If Prince Mu is fine, the concubine will retire." Qin Yuan is obviously evading, she is responsible for Qingyu after all, and she has no shame to face Qingyu, even if Qingyu marries someone else today, she is not qualified to interrogate.

At the moment when Qin Yuan walked past Qing Cang, Qing Yu grabbed his arm and dragged it hard in front of him, Qing Cang ignored Qin Yuan's astonishment, and said in a firm tone, "How can it be okay, I don't have to wait any longer, I want you to give me an explanation!" ”

Qin Yuan raised her hand and shook off Qingyu's arm vigorously, and said coldly, "If Prince Mu has something to ask, it would be fine." Qing Yu couldn't help but feel sad in the face of Qin Yuan's indifference, "Don't you think you owe me an explanation?" Have you forgotten everything in the past? ”

Qin Yuan looked at Qingyu's slightly excited appearance, paused for a few seconds, and said in a gentle and clear tone, "The concubine is now the emperor's concubine, Prince Mu doesn't need to forget it, let the past pass." ”

Qingyu laughed for a moment after hearing this, "Hehe, in the past? The original sea oath and mountain alliance was exchanged for such a sentence from you, hahaha, Xue Qinyuan, you make me so cold. A trace of sadness flashed in Qin Yuan's heart, and she said softly with a slight apology, "I'm sorry." ”

"Heh, Qin Yuan, do you think it's okay to say sorry? I love you so much, I can do nothing for you, and in the end I will get you a word of sorry? You told me that you entered the palace to serve the queen mother, but the woman who became the emperor's brother in the end, do you know how sad I am? If I hadn't seen you in the palace with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that the woman I love so much is this kind of person! Now, are you just saying sorry to me? ”

Facing Qingyu's voice questioning, Qin Yuan finally couldn't hold back her emotions, "Then what do you want me to do?" Now that I have become the emperor's woman, what can I do but say sorry to you? Is it possible to go back in time with you? Not anymore! Nothing will be done! At the end of the words, tears flashed from the corners of Qin Yuan's eyes, and the most slumpy eyes slid across her cheeks.

Qingyu was a little unbearable for a while, even if Qin Yuan betrayed her, but seeing his beloved woman crying, his heart would still hurt, because he still loved her, Qingyu then took Qin Yuan's hand, lowered his voice and said, "If you want, I will take you out of here, we will go to a strange place, and we can go back to the past." ”

Qin Yuan decisively shook off Qingyu's hand, looked at Qingyu with tears in her eyes, and said in a trembling voice, "I don't want to!" Qingyu, don't you understand? It's too late, I'm already pregnant with the emperor's child, and I'm destined to spend my whole life in this red-walled deep palace, and we will never go back to the past. ”

Qingyu hurriedly stepped forward again, held Qin Yuan's arm, and said firmly, "I don't dislike the child in your belly, nor do I dislike you for becoming someone else's woman, I just want you!" As long as you can be by my side, I don't care about anything, Qin Yuan, you said that I won't marry, you said that you only love me alone in this life, have you forgotten? Have you forgotten all those previous vows? You don't love the royal brother, do you? Why do you have to stay by his side, he has too many concubines, you will never get his love, and I can only marry you in this life, only love you, Qin Yuan, I don't need you to do anything now, you just nod your head and say yes, we can go back to the past. ”

At this moment, a strong feeling hit Qin Yuan like Mount Tai pressing, a string of tears flowed silently from Qin Yuan's sad face, Qin Yuan did not cry at all, Qin Yuan's heart was like a sharp knife pierced straight in, let the tears keep flowing down, "No...... Not ......"

Qing Cang shook Qin Yuan vigorously, "Qin Yuan, think about it again, it's okay, everything can be changed." ”

"Say no more!" , Qin Yuan shouted hysterically, broke free from Qing Cang again, took a step back, bit her lips with her teeth, and tried her best to stop sobbing, "We really can't go back!" If we leave like this now, will the emperor let the concubine go? Will you let the Xue family go? We are not people in the worldly realm, and together we are destined to do harm. Qingcang, I'm sorry, forget about me. ”

After Qin Yuan finished speaking, he hurriedly crossed Qingyu and fled, Qingyu did not chase after him, he stood alone and sad, with some tears in his eyes, after all, he was a man, the tears did not fall after all, he looked back at Qin Yuan's back, his eyes were full of sadness, and then he left alone, on the empty road, looking from afar, the back looked particularly desolate.

And at this time, at the partition of the road, there is a majestic figure, this person is Qingcang!

Qing Cang originally learned that Qiao Chang died in premature birth, so he chose to take this ultra-short road to Yuxiu Palace in a hurry, but he didn't expect to see such a good show.

Qing Cang's eyes were full of anger at the moment, he didn't expect Qin Yuan to have a relationship with Qing Yu, and they still don't forget each other, remembering that on the Queen Mother's birthday that day, Qing Yu said that the woman she liked was married, and it turned out to be Qin Yuan!

How could Qing Cang tolerate such a thing, Long Yan was furious for a while, his clenched fists seemed to crush bones, and he whispered in his heart: Xue Qinyuan, I won't let you have a good time! , Then he turned around decisively and strode back, Zhou Ruiqing behind him was startled by Qing Cang's momentary move, and asked while trotting, "Doesn't the emperor go to Yuxiu Palace to see Qiao Chang over there?" ”

Qing Cang said extremely impatiently, "No, everything will be handled by Concubine Yi!" ”
