Chapter Forty-Eight: Tears on Red Sleeves

Under the light of the day, the water and light on the Penglai Pond flow, the blue waves are rippling, the weeping willows along the coast are green and green like jade, a tree is green and manman is on the ground, thousands of lush green silk silks are flying with the wind, the blue shadow is rising, the wind is curling up to the water, and even the wind blowing from the lake also brings a trace of green, cool and comfortable, pleasant and calm.

The flowers and trees on the lakeside where the wind passed were falling one after another, fluttering flowers like snow, confusing the beautiful women on the Penglai Pond, and adding to the misty and messy beauty.

Walking to the white jade bridge, looking at the thousands of sparkling waves on Penglai Pond and the green mirror, I groaned slightly, and said slowly to Yan Shuyuan, who came with me: "Sister Shuyuan, my sister has always had a question in her heart, which has been troubled for a long time and is difficult to solve. My sister is smart, I wonder if she can solve this doubt for me? ”

Yan Shuyuan saw that I was solemn, not like a joke, the smile on her face froze, and said: "Look at what my sister said, my sister is just pampered, and she is pregnant with a dragon heir, and she is deeply loved by Your Majesty, what else is there to worry about my sister?" ”

I frowned slightly and said, "It is precisely because Your Majesty loves me so much that I have to worry about the fact that one day someone will assassinate my life!" ”

I looked at Yan Shuyuan's calm face and continued: "Your Majesty dotes on me, but it is also easy to attract the resentment of other sisters, it is difficult to guarantee that someone will not harm others, Pan Ronghua and Liu Zhaohua in front are examples. The harem sisters are so dissatisfied with me, and I am really afraid, afraid that one day they will calculate their lives. Sister Shuyuan, you won't be one of them, right? ”

When Yan Shuyuan heard this, her face changed suddenly, and she said slightly angrily: "How can my sister think like this, I have always treated you like a sister, I respect and love, and I don't have half a point of contempt, how can my sister suspect that I will harm you?!" ”

The pain in the abdomen gradually increased, and I knew that the abortion pill I took when I came had worked, so I gritted my teeth slightly and endured it, keeping my face as usual, and sneered, "Yes, people in this palace are used to acting, a face in front of people, a face behind people, people's hearts are unpredictable, how do I know that sister, your usual kindness and kindness are not pretended?" ”

Yan Shuyuan was stunned on her face, as if she didn't understand how I, who had always been kind, could suddenly speak coldly to her, and said bluntly, "Did someone chew the root of her tongue in front of my sister, so that my sister misunderstood me like this?" ”

The pain in my abdomen became more and more intense, and I didn't want to spend any more time with her, so I said: "Did you misunderstand that my sister knew in her heart that on the night of the Hazel Plum Garden Palace banquet, my sister dared to say that it was not you who asked Su Tong to push me!" ”

Yan Shuyuan's picturesque eyebrows jumped, and her calm appearance finally couldn't be maintained, so she only smiled lightly and covered it up: "What my sister is saying, why can't I understand?" ”

I stepped forward, and my slender jade fingers grabbed her hand, and her cold eyes swept towards her, "Sister is so calculating, take advantage of the chaos to push me towards the assassin." If it succeeds, everyone will think that I have died at the hands of the Assassins, and no one will suspect you. Even if it didn't work out, and the scene was so chaotic at the time, no one would know who pushed me. Even if you know, you can use the confusion to accidentally push me down as an excuse to get rid of it. Sister Shuyuan, do you think I'm right? ”

My strange abnormality today finally aroused Yan Shuyuan's vigilance, as if she smelled something unusual, she wanted to escape in a little panic, but still kept sober and said: "Sister, you are pregnant, emotionally unstable, it is inevitable to be cranky, I won't annoy you here, take the first step." ”

The weeping willows flying in the blue waves, and the squinting eyes saw a corner of the bright yellow embroidered dragon pattern robe through the dense green leaves, I made up my mind, tightly pinched Yan Shuyuan's wrist, and deliberately said loudly: "Sister, you must make it clear to me today, did you ask someone to push me to the assassin on the night of the Hazel Garden Palace Banquet, it turns out that you have always been gentle and virtuous, and you actually want to kill me, I really misjudged you!" ”

"I have no idea what you're talking about!" Yan Shuyuan struggled to get out of my hands.

"You don't have to pretend anymore, I know everything, the person who pushed me is Su Tong. She is a person in your palace, not someone else who you instigated her. You just want to take advantage of the chaos to kill me, I really didn't expect you to be so vicious! ”

The pointed nails pinched into Yan Shuyuan's jade white and tender hands, and Yan Shuyuan finally couldn't help but exhale the pain and pushed me away. I let go of my hand, leaned back, slipped my feet, and fell down the high white jade steps. I was hit hard in my abdomen, and in the great pain, there seemed to be a viscous liquid flowing out of my body, and I closed my eyes weakly......

When I opened my eyes, I vaguely saw the figure shaking, the palm was warm, the body seemed to have lost something, the whole person was heavy and stiff, and I couldn't move.

The line of sight gradually became clear, and Chen Qian's surprised face came into view, "Qing'er, I finally look forward to you waking up!" "The hands that had been clasped tighter.

"Have I slept for a long time?" As soon as he spoke, he felt that his throat was dry and unbearable. Chen Qian hurriedly poured a glass of water, and I drank it from the edge of the cup, and then I felt better.

"Sister Shurong has been in a coma for two days, and Your Majesty is very worried about her sister." It was Han Xiuhua's voice.

Yes, the whole thing was designed by us together, my plan is to ask Yan Shuyuan to go to the Penglai Pond Stone Bridge, and she is responsible for leading Chen Qian over there, and Chen Qian will see Yan Shuyuan pushing me down. As a result, Yan Shuyuan's charge of murdering the emperor's heir was established.

I stroked my flattened lower abdomen, as if in disbelief, tears welled up in my eyes, and I murmured, "Your Majesty, what about the child, what about my child?" ”

Chen Qian unconsciously let go of my hand, couldn't bear to look directly at my gaze, and frowned painfully with two thick eyebrows, "Qing'er, child...... We will have children in the future. ”

"The child is gone?" I was so badly struck that I couldn't help myself, crying out bitterly, "Son, my child is gone?" My child is gone? How could my children be gone, Your Majesty, our children?! ”

I struggled to get up, my hands grabbed the bed beside me, and the cherry purple gauze tent embroidered with hibiscus and lotus leaves was almost torn apart by me.

Chen Qian hugged me tightly in her arms, her voice was full of pain and pity, "Qing'er, you still have me, I'm here." I'm there for you at all times. The sincerity under the heartache was revealed, and he forgot to call himself "I".

I fell on his shoulder, like a sad and helpless little beast, and wept sadly, "Your Majesty, the child is gone, our child is gone!" ”

Chen Qian's chin rested on one of my green silks, "Don't worry, I have punished Yan Shuyuan, and I will not let go of anyone who hurt you!" "There is a gloom in the relief.

I consciously leaned close to him, crying more and more mournfully.

My sadness is not entirely false, after all, it is my child, it is flesh and blood linked to my blood, it is impossible not to have a little heartache, if his father was not so hateful, I would still be willing to give birth to him. I hate Chen Qian so much, even if I reluctantly give birth to this child, I can't force myself to like this child. I am not a person who easily admits defeat and yields, and I will not accommodate my whole life for the sake of my child, and I will definitely do everything possible to escape from Chen Qian in the future, then this child's childhood will be spent in the shadow of lack of maternal love and father's love, and there will be no happiness. Giving birth to him is a pain and suffering for me, and it is even more a pain and suffering for him.

I don't think my children would want to have such a miserable life, and they would be happier if they didn't come to this world.

If I could, I wish I had never been in this world.

If you hadn't come to this world, there wouldn't have been so much pain, so much hatred, heartbreaking, hatred to the bone marrow, shattered.

"Qing'er, since you know who the person who pushed you in the first place, why didn't you report it to me as soon as possible, so as to avoid today's disaster?"

"Although I saw her face clearly, I didn't know who she was, and I didn't know that she was the palace maid in Yan Shuyuan's palace. The Yan clan rarely looked at Su Tong in front of others, how could Qingqiang know? It wasn't until a few days ago that Qingqiang accidentally saw her, and only then did she know that she was from Yan's palace, and in a moment of anger, she went to question Yan, who knew that she ...... "I lied with a sad face, a red face and a heartbeat."

"It must be that Yan clan saw that the matter was revealed, so they harmed you, killed people, killed people, and killed two lives." Chen Qian's eyes flashed with cold hatred, his generous palm touched my back, and a trace of fear flashed in his clear pool-like eyes, "Fortunately, I arrived in time, Qing'er, I almost ...... I won't see you. ”

Yan Shuyuan was crowned with "mutilating the imperial heir and plotting to kill the palace concubine." The crime went to the cold palace.

During my coma, Chen Qian ordered someone to arrest the palace maid named Su Tong, but she had a hard mouth, and she couldn't pry her mouth open even after being tortured, until Chen Qian threatened her with her family, which revealed that Yan Shuyuan had ordered her to murder me. After this incident, coupled with what Chen Qian saw with her own eyes, Yan Shuyuan pushed me off the stone bridge, so I had a miscarriage. Pile by pile, Chen Qian has determined that Yan Shuyuan's crime is unpardonable, and he hates her to the extreme. Yan Shuyuan didn't even have a chance to defend herself, so she was thrown into the cold palace by Chen Qianfa.

As soon as Yan Shuyuan's incident came out, the harem was in an uproar, except for Concubine Kong Guifei, who felt happy, most people adhered to a half-believing attitude, after all, Yan Shuyuan's gentleness and kindness were obvious to all in the harem. Whether it is the palace people or the palace concubines, they have more or less received her favor, and they don't want to believe that Yan Shuyuan will kill the palace concubines, and even look at me with suspicion and fear in their eyes, suspecting that I framed Yan Shuyuan in order to compete for favor, and I am afraid that they will end up like Yan Shuyuan in the future.

The palace concubines who were good friends with Yan Shuyuan on weekdays went to intercede, but they were all severely reprimanded by Chen Qian without exception, and some were even grounded, with the lessons of these people in front of them, no one dared to intercede for Yan Shuyuan.

I had a miscarriage in my first child, and this miscarriage caused a lot of damage to my body, and the imperial doctor said that it would be difficult for me to get pregnant again in the future. This is just right, I don't have to bother thinking about contraception in the future, and I don't have to worry about what Chen Qian will suspect. It doesn't matter to me if I can get pregnant, I don't care anyway.

Chen Qian was both sorry and distressed for me, and treated me even more, and the only remaining doubt in his heart disappeared.
