Chapter 18: Twilight
The queen's words seemed to stimulate the empress dowager, and she slowly closed her eyes.
The queen said that half of it was left, and she looked so sad that she almost took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.
"Who said I didn't come back, may I ask who the queen asked me to inform, why don't I know?"
July stepped in from outside the hall, noble and elegant, but at a young age, he perfectly showed the majesty of the royal family and the spirit of the superior, and the voice pierced people's hearts, making the whole room full of weirdness and embarrassment.
The Empress stood there with a strange face, and July did not give her a look as she passed in front of her.
Looking at the empress dowager's skinny body, she couldn't help it for a moment, and pounced on it and shouted loudly.
"Great grandmother, July is back, back!" The tearful July knelt in front of the bed and held the Empress Dowager's hand and kept shaking, hoping that her voice and movements could affect the Empress Dowager who was unconscious.
No one dared to come forward to comfort the heartbroken July, and Aunt Wangya, who had followed the Empress Dowager for most of her life, felt distressed in July, and she felt sad and hurt when she heard her cry.
Since July came to this world, what she cherishes most is family and friendship and love that has just been doubted, Ning Ning's departure made her disgusted with the whole world, including herself, but she didn't expect that she would be powerless again now.
"Princess Xiaoyang, get up, don't worry, the Empress Dowager will be very happy to know that you are back!" Wangya insisted on picking up the heartbroken July and patted her gently.
"Auntie, Grandmother won't blame me, will she?" July's voice was slightly hoarse from shouting and crying.
Wangya looked at the appearance of July kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly, except for the rest of his eyebrows, which was exactly the same as Ning Ning back then, his heart was like being cut by a knife, and his mind was full of pictures of Ning Ning's pale face and bright red blood before he died, all of which were the sentences: Auntie, I have never begged you, July, my July ......, thinking of this scene, Wangya was full of heartache, took July's hand and said: "Good boy, the Empress Dowager will not blame you, she is reluctant." ”
Although the queen was annoyed, in order to show her generosity and tolerance as the queen in the hearts of others, she pretended to be okay and bent over to help July and said with care: "July, don't be sad, the Queen Mother loves you the most, knowing that you are back must be the happiest, after you leave, your father can't eat or sleep, but I'm worried about you, how can you send a message back, go and see your father." ”
The Queen's seemingly gentle care made July feel thousands of dark arrows flying towards her, and this femme fatale would never remind herself so kindly.
"Thank you for reminding the queen, my father and the emperor will go to ask for peace in person."
She would never bow her head in the face of the queen, and still proudly and disappetly took the queen's words aside.
The queen saw July's attitude towards her, although her face was like a peach blossom and she had a refreshing smile, but under this "mask" she was full of anger, and if she was close, she could hear the "creaking" grinding sound of gritting teeth.
The queen is the most disguised person, deceived Twilight, and also deceived Ning Ning's life, she not only felt guilty and regretted her killing of her sister, but also hated July who was nine points similar to Ning Ning, and wanted to kill her quickly.
After waiting for too long in July, the Empress Dowager still didn't wake up, she carefully explained a few words to Wangya, and slowly went to the Heart Cultivation Hall alone.
She hadn't walked this path in a long time, and when she was very young, Twilight often let her ride around her neck to take her to the Heart Cultivation Temple, and these things were so far away that she couldn't even remember them.
With a "click", July pushed open the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace, which was dim and dull, without a trace of light, and a strong smell of wine came out, which was so pungent that people wanted to vomit.
At the foot of the stairs in the distance sat a man dressed in bright yellow, his face full of exhaustion, his stubble growing unscrupulously like a newborn weed, and the white hair between his sideburns and hair was particularly eye-catching.
Tears poured out of the corners of July's eyes, and she couldn't believe that the decadent, lifeless Twilight in front of her could be her personable and gentle daddy.
Even if he entered the temple in July, he didn't attract Leng Dui's attention, and in his eyes there was only the wine bottle in front of him, only wine.
Holding back the tears in her eyes, July ran forward and hugged Leng Twilight and said, "Daddy, July is back, why don't you look at July?" ”
A July finally summoned the attention of the cold twilight, and there was a glimmer of light in the godless eyes.
"July, July......" a muttered voice came out of Twilight's throat.
"Well, it's me, Daddy."
Unlike July's surprise, Twilight is still expressionless, and he has almost reached the realm of ruthlessness and desirelessness now.
"You go out, don't stay here."
After speaking, he picked up the wine bottle and took a sip of it freely, and then lay on the ground without looking at Qiyue, obviously not wanting to talk to her anymore.
July knew that there was no need to say any more, so after going out, he found Yuan Zhi and asked, "Father-in-law, has my father always been like this?" ”
Yuan Zhi's most trusted in addition to Twilight is July, and he is unconditionally obedient to July and says: "Princess, you can be regarded as back, since you left, the emperor has become more and more decadent, and he uses wine to kill his sorrows every day, you can persuade the emperor well, and the body can't stand it if it goes on like this." ”
"Stand down!" July's voice was a little weak and a little sad, she didn't know how to comfort Twilight, the current government and harem were in chaos, and in the eyes of those ministers, she was not qualified to ask about the government, because she was just a princess.
Sitting on the steps outside the hall, she racked her brains for a long time, she had to pull Twilight out of her world no matter what, this hatred not only belonged to her, but also belonged to Twilight.
After thinking of how to stimulate Twilight, July rushed into the hall with a quick meteor, reached out and grabbed the few remaining wine bottles in Twilight's hand, and fell directly to the ground and roared: "You use alcohol so much to kill your sorrows, you think it's because you miss my mother, don't you?" ”
Seeing that Twilight still didn't move, she continued to scold and said: "You do this, it will only make the person who killed my mother more happy, more unscrupulous, when my mother died, let you take good care of me, all these years, how have you taken care of me, do you still think that I have grown up unconsciously, hahahaha, I have always thought that you still love me, it turns out that I just deceived myself!" ”
Mentioning the cause of Ning Ning's death, Twilight finally reacted, it seems that his love for Ning Ning really goes deep into the bone marrow and penetrates the heart.
When July first came in to call him Daddy, the corners of his eyes were actually slightly moist, but he didn't want to face the face that looked like Ning Ning, so he drove her out.
When she came in again and smashed his bottle, he was a little surprised by the reaction of his well-behaved daughter, and was about to drive her away again, when she mentioned the cause of her mother's death, Ning Ning, which made him completely irresistible.
"Who is it?" The voice was still low and magnetic, and the light in his eyes lit up like stars.
"It seems that you still have some concerns, I thought that the paralysis of alcohol had made you forget everything about my mother, just to ease the pain." July's voice was full of mockery, she was disdainful and contemptuous of Twilight as the emperor, but she was sympathetic and pitiful to Twilight as a husband and father.
He didn't care about his daughter's ridicule, all he cared about was July's opinion and why Ning Ning died.
"You don't need to talk to me in such a tone, I love your mother, this kind of love you don't understand now."
These words reminded July of the cold twilight of saying goodbye, and she didn't know if her love for him was the kind of love her father had said.
"No matter who it is, I will avenge my mother, I have been trying to live for revenge since I was three years old, are you willing?" No matter how much Twilight loves her mother, she must have an answer, an accurate answer.
After being an emperor for so many years, Twilight could hear what it meant, it must be someone with a high authority and a deep connection with him, and suddenly, he felt that the answer was very close to him.
"Queen, Concubine Xiao, maybe there are more people, are you willing, Daddy?"
July's words were tentative and teasing, and she didn't know what kind of thoughts Twilight had in her heart, so she would ask such a sentence.
The two fathers and daughters haven't said a few words in seven years, and July doesn't know Twilight, I don't know if he has changed or not, and I don't know if his attitude towards him is still the same as when he was a child.
"July, don't worry, even if you don't want this country, your mother's revenge must be avenged." His eyes were burning with the flames of hatred, no matter who it was, he would not hesitate to ruin the whole world.
"Hmph, your country may not be yours now." July Yin and Yang said angrily.
Twilight knows that after she has done these ridiculous things, her whole strength has been divided among those so-called courtiers, and it is not so easy to regain power, who wants to vomit what she eats in her stomach.
"Daddy, what were you like before, the current enemy is not so easy, those people in the former Xuanwang Party are also involved, maybe it is a bigger conspiracy, there are their shadows in the gold mine case reported by Mo Zhong, let's have a desire to capture the old man!"
When she wakes up Twilight, she has already thought of a solution to the follow-up problem.
Now it's up to Twilight Yu's acting skills to trick those wolf ambitions into a group.
Twilight Yu really didn't expect her daughter to be so good one day, and what she discussed with him was her mother's hatred, it seems that she really wanted to say that she didn't fulfill her father's responsibilities and didn't fulfill Ning Ning's instructions.
"July, I love your mother so much that I have no principles, but I am most sorry for you, I didn't take good care of you, if I see your mother one day, do you say she will hate me!" His grief-stricken whole body trembled, and drops of tears fell to the ground.
