The next day, Chu Xuan moved to Qiwu Palace to recuperate.

Shuo Nu looked helplessly at the person who occupied her bed.

He leaned leisurely on the head of the bed, eating fruit and reading a book, was he really seriously ill?

"Fairy Princess, do you want to come up and watch it together?" He asked, looking at her dotingly.

"No!" Her face turned red, and she looked away.

His smile grew wider, and a low laugh erupted from his throat.

She looked at him in amazement.

After an accident, he can still laugh?

Even if she stayed at home, she knew the turmoil in the government and the opposition, and the Du family's father and son were aggressive, so they simply didn't take him as the emperor in their eyes.

The death of the Korean duke, the discerning person doesn't need to look at it to know that it was the ghost of the Du family.

Hundreds of lives were burned to death in this way in the Korean government, and the methods were vicious and unreveling.

In order to eradicate dissidents, this is their usual method.

Shuo Nu's eyes turned cold, and human life was as light as grass in their eyes.

Chu Xuan interrupted her thoughts.

"Concubine Xian, do you think the Korean Duke can be regarded as a pillar of the country?" He asked suddenly.

Shuo Nu was slightly stunned, and looked back at him, his face had long since lost his smile, and his face was slightly blue.

Although he was calm and light on the surface, he looked like he was fine, but the lights that were still on in the middle of the night betrayed his mind.

The east window is not white, and the lights are out.

She took a deep breath and said, "Han Gongnai is a veteran of the two dynasties, so he is naturally the pillar of Dachu!" Misfortune has already happened, so why should Your Majesty be concerned? ”

"Then do you think that the widow is a good emperor?" After years of pretending to be crazy and stupid, just to protect himself, countless people have died for him, and he now doubts whether their sacrifice is worth it?

In the face of his frank emotions, Shuo Nu was a little moved, "Have you ever been sorry for the people of Dawn?" ”

"Nope!"

"Then you are at least not a faint king!"

He is indeed not a faint king, he is just enduring humiliation and stealing his life.

An emperor who has no military power is just Du Qingshan's puppet......

--

"Your Majesty, the old slave has already asked, no one in the palace knows about His Majesty's injury before! No one in the court mentioned it! Gonggong Lin interrupted his thoughts and said.

No one else knew that he had been assassinated.

So the fairy concubine hid it, why did she help him?

There is no doubt that Du Qingshan was the instigator of his assassination.

But she was obviously sent by the Du family to spy on him.

She helped him. So, has her mind changed?

Just for him.

But what could he give her?

An emperor who can't even protect himself......

Du Qingshan sent someone to stab him, and set fire to the Korean family, forcing him to establish a prince.

Under the double coercion, he had to obey.

If he doesn't, I'm afraid there will be countless assassinations like that night in the future.

Chu Xuan sighed weakly.

At the very least, he has to defend this Qiwu Palace.

--

Soon after, Chu Xu was made the crown prince.

Six months have passed, and it is early winter.

At this time, there was news that the prince was critically ill.

The implications of this news are enormous.

The prince is critically ill.

If he, the emperor, is also critically ill and dies before the crown prince.

What will be the fate of this stormy country?

This year's winter seems to be particularly cold.

The north wind howls all day long, mixed with ice and rain, and the bones of the cold people hurt.

There is a charcoal basin burning in the Qiwu Palace, and the palace people are busy with their own things in the palace, but they are warm by themselves.

In the study, it was still so quiet.

Chu Xuan hadn't been to court for a month, and stayed in her Qiwu Palace all day long, completely isolated from the outside world.

The study room, which was originally a little empty, was now full of all kinds of books, many of which were rare books, and she wondered if he had moved all the books in the imperial study.

She also had trouble not knowing when such a seemingly comfortable day would come to an abrupt end, like waking up in a dream at night.

He raised his head in the automato, and when he saw that she was in a daze, he asked, "Fairy Princess, but you are tired?" ”

"What?" She looked at him, not hearing what he said.

Putting down the piece in his hand, he walked over.

"What do you think?" He asked.

"Why do you want to stay here all day?" She asked blankly.

"Isn't it good?" He looked into her eyes and asked.

There seemed to be waves in his eyes, deep but incomprehensible, she shook her head, "Not good! ”

He tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled bitterly, "It's not good......

His expression of helplessness and despair made her heart ache.

"It's not good, but it's not bad!" she said. ”

He was amused by her words, extremely gentle, but there was deep meaning in his eyes.

"If the widow doesn't come, will you miss me?"

Shuonu was always unable to break free from his deep eyes, and she seemed to sink deeper and deeper, unable to extricate herself.

She said blankly, "Won't you come?" ”

Chu Xuan shook his head, "No." ”

She sighed.

He stared at her eyes, and suddenly said with a straight face, "The father and son of Chu Guogong will not let you go, what are your plans in the future?" ”

She looked at him in shock.

Why did he make everything clear?

When she saw the indifference in his eyes, she suddenly understood his intentions.

He's ...... Give up struggling.

Shuo Nu looked at him movingly, her eyes were a little wet, "You have already seen through me." Be! I was sent to the palace by Du Chen! So I'm his man, so you don't touch me? But you come to me every day, and you're helping me deceive him? Why? ”

He created the illusion that she was favored, making Du Chen think that he was really fascinated by him and made her valuable.

He looked deeply at her misty teary eyes, "You really don't understand?" The widow thinks that what he has expressed is already very clear! ”

The affection in his eyes almost overwhelmed her, and she hurriedly looked away, a little flustered.

He reached out and touched her face, and his tentacles warmed, and he said with a little pleading, "Would you like to come to my side?" ”

He uses me, not the widow.

Emperors have always been called lonely, but who is really willing to be lonely?

There is infinite loneliness hidden under the seemingly gentle appearance, didn't she already know this? He pleaded with him so affectionately to go to his side? What could she do?

She still has a master, that is her ideal, her dream, and the love that she can't catch up with in her life.

Although these are not tolerated by the world, they can't stop her from hesitating.

Impressed?

He treated her so well, so good that he never forced her to do anything, she was still in the palace for so long, how could she not be moved by such a favor.

She was silent for a long time, and Chu Xuan finally let go of her hand, unwilling to embarrass her.

He smiled lightly, "The widow is joking with you, but the fairy concubine is serious?" ”

Looking into his eyes, they were still gentle, and there was no sadness.

But how can the loneliness be hidden?

She was destined to fail him.

"I don't deserve ......," she said in a low voice.

Hearing her words, he was finally injured, and didn't say anything more, just held her hand tightly.

I knew in my heart that this kind of comfort would never be there again......

Knowing the result, he asked her for an answer, and he knew this answer for a long time.

But my heart still can't stop hurting......

This winter seems to be going a long time, so long that it makes people desperate.

Chu Xuan faintly felt that his country, his love, and his spring would never come again.

Qingchen held his chin and couldn't help but sigh for him.

This ancient person is trouble, and if you fall in love, you can hold back the internal injuries.

She suddenly thought of Qi Chu.

Seeing Qi Chu in Shuonu's dream, to be honest, she really had mixed tastes.

In addition to fear, there is also unwillingness.

She really wanted to rush up to him and ask him why?

She loved him so much, why did he kill himself?

But she didn't dare.

In this case, she seems to be inferior to these stereotypical ancients!

In Qiwu Palace, the palace people retreated outside the hall, exhaling white gas one by one, almost blocking their vision.

In contrast, the inner sanctum is warm and sleepy.

The girl sat on the chair with her chin propped up, looking at the person in front of her lightly.

"Looks like he's nice to you, huh?" Du Chen curled the corners of his mouth and said mockingly.

"Say whatever you want!" Her clear eyes are not stained with a trace of mortal dust, but they are also cold like this cold winter.

He sneered, "It looks like you're happy to forget who you are!" This son sent you into the palace to enjoy happiness, and you haven't repaid it yet? ”

"So?" His words around and around annoyed her.

He took out a blood-stained handkerchief from his sleeve and threw it on the ground, saying, "Do you know this handkerchief?" ”

Very ordinary handkerchief, only in the corner of the show of a simple honeysuckle, the bamboo house in the mountains will be full of such flowers every summer, fragrant and can also repel mosquitoes.

The Shuo Nu recognized that she had embroidered it for the Master.

She opened her handkerchief, her nose was bloody, a severed finger appeared in front of her, tears fell, and she looked at him with hateful eyes, "You promised me that I wouldn't hurt him?" ”

"Really? I don't remember! He looked at Bloodpa and said in a flat tone, as if he was talking to her about the weather.

"Despicable villain!" She roared.

"Hahaha......" he laughed, "do you know what pleasure is?" Ice-like jade, smashing with a knife, it's really fast! Aren't you very cold? Isn't it very high? What's going on now? ”

"You saw it, you were satisfied, so what do you want?" She put away her excitement and asked lightly.

"I want Chu Xuan's life! I want you to kill him! "The prince is critically ill, and Chu Xuan's life will only be bad and multiply.

She sneered, "Are you underestimating him, or are you overestimating me, I gave it to him by you, do you think it is possible for me to kill him?" ”

He didn't answer, just took out a small bottle and handed it to her.

"What is this?"

"Poison! Just one drop can kill him! You just need to put a drop in his diet and eat a little bit every day, or it won't be long before he will be in vain, just like his father! ”

The bottle seemed to burn her hand, and she let go of her hand, and the bottle fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

"It's up to you whether you do it or not! I can give you time to think about it! ”

Picking up the bottle and holding it in her hand, she glanced at the bloody severed finger on the ground, and she said coldly, "No need! ”

He was slightly surprised, only to hear her say again, "If you hurt him again, I will kill myself immediately, and I will not be threatened by you again!" ”

He snorted coldly, brushed his sleeves and left.

A colorless and odorless poison that kills instantly with just one drop.

He poured out the medicine from the medicine bottle, diluted it with water in a porcelain bowl, and took out the mahogany comb on the dresser and soaked it in it.
