Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Thief's Heart Never Dies

After Zhao Ling said this, he looked down at Chu Xingyue, who was lying on his chest for a long time and did not speak.

A pair of large hands gently wrapped around her shoulders and rested his chin on her head, he knew that she was very insecure, and even wanted to run away from him because of insecurity.

He will not forget what she said to him when he was in the hunting palace.

She is afraid to live a frightened life, tired of living a life of intrigue; She didn't like his identity, and she didn't like the title he gave her Princess Ling.

These things, which represent supreme dignity and glory in the eyes of outsiders, are a burden to her, originally, he didn't understand her thoughts, but after Zhou Yanran's matter, he suddenly realized.

He finally understood the true meaning of the phrase, 'Although I will not kill Beren, but Beren will die by me'.

He used to think that if he gave her glory and status, honor and honor, she should be grateful and accept it wholeheartedly.

But she didn't know that the good things he gave her were also mixed with secret poison, and if she wasn't careful, she would be crushed by the identity he gave her.

He was reluctant to let her go, and even more reluctant to let her suffer any harm because of him; In the end, he finally came up with a solution, one that could be considered the best of both worlds.

He will turn himself into a sword in her hand, fight with her, and turn the clouds and seas for her.

When danger comes, he will stand up for her as soon as possible, and when she is isolated, he will become her strongest backing.

He wants to tell her with practical actions: Don't harm his identity, let alone choose to abandon him, because he, Zhao Ling, is definitely a man who can be entrusted by her for a lifetime.

"Yue'er, sooner or later, this king will make you the most noble woman in the world, so that you don't have to be afraid to avoid this king, but you will be proud of your identity."

Listening to Zhao Ling's Top Gun, Chu Xingyue closed her eyes and smiled.

Snuggling up to his chest, she felt calmer and more comfortable than ever.

Zhou Yanran has been having nightmares for several days in a row, and every time night comes, she will sit on the corner of the bed with the quilt in a panic, her body trembling with fear, and even her teeth trembling.

For her, the devastation of that day was definitely impressive.

She never knew that the things of men and women could be so cruel, so cruel that they could torture people's souls and destroy people's minds.

Meng'e looked distressed at the mother who was huddled up again because of fear, and after retiring from the palace, she rushed up and carefully took Zhou Yanran's hand.

Persuaded: "Niangniang, the matter has passed, no one will know about the events of the day, Niangniang, please forget about it, okay?" ”

Forget? For a woman, when something happens, can it really be forgotten?

Zhou Yanran looked at Meng'e with dull eyes, and her voice was sneering: "Meng'e, you tell this palace, what should this palace do to forget?" ”

The tears on her face fell, and Zhou Yanran didn't even know that she was crying: "This palace can't forget that day, that brute, he trampled on everything in this palace and destroyed all of this palace, and now, this palace has nothing." ”

"No, sissy! You still have the most important thing to lose. ”

Meng'e sniffed to stop the tears in her eyes, leaned close to Zhou Yanran's ear, and whispered to her: "You haven't lost the emperor yet, as long as you have this card, Niangniang can still achieve her goal." ”

Zhou Yanran was stunned for a moment, and a glimmer of light suddenly lit up in her originally silent eyes, and then, this glimmer of light began to gradually spread, and finally illuminated her entire eyeball.

Looking at Zhou Yanran's bright and beautiful eyes, Meng'e continued: "Since ancient times, those who have achieved great things need to pay and forbear, although King Heng's affairs have been humiliated, but there is one thing we can predict, that is, King Heng does not dare to say anything at will; After all, insulting the concubine, the emperor will forgive him for the first time, but if it happens continuously, even if it is the prince, the son of heaven will be angry. ”

Speaking of this, even Meng'e felt that her words were absolutely correct, so she persuaded Zhou Yanran even more emotionally.

"So Niangniang, God knows this matter, you know that I know King Heng knows, and no fourth person knows, His Royal Highness King Ling naturally doesn't know, as long as King Ling doesn't know, we still have a chance."

"San Lang ......, if San Lang had God to know, he wouldn't dislike this palace, wouldn't he?"

Zhou Yanran seemed to grasp the last straw that saved her life, clasped the nightmare's shoulders tightly, and looked at her with a hopeful light in her eyes.

Meng'e felt sorry for such a mother, so she naturally wanted to say a lot of words to comfort her.

"Of course, Niangniang was so beautiful, and she has the love of the prince back then, one day in the future, even if he knows, he will be angry with King Heng and pity Niangniang even more. After all, His Royal Highness King Ling is not the same as the emperor, he is affectionate, isn't he? ”

Zhou Yanran's heart was greatly soothed, and she nodded again and again, and said: "That's right, San Lang is affectionate, he will not abandon me, he will only feel more sorry for me." San Lang is the most soft-hearted, he is not the same as the emperor at all. ”

Zhou Yanran, who was encouraged again, finally seemed to have regained a little of her original self-confidence, regained her strength, and looked at Meng'e: "It's just that things have developed to this point, and we have no way out." ”

Looking at the mother who had regained her confidence, Meng'e worshiped like a god, and her eyes were full of respect: "What plan did Niang Niang think of?" ”

"This palace has just experienced a heavy blow, and it is no longer suitable to appear in front of Chu Bingyue again in the near future, but if that woman is not eradicated as soon as possible, how can she eliminate the hatred in her heart."

Zhou Yanran clenched her fingers, and her eyes showed a look of poisonous hatred: "This time, this palace must let her taste heartbroken." ”

"Yes, the reason why that Qingzhou girl was so lucky this time is not because of the word lucky; Next time, the slave will not show mercy to her subordinates, and give her any respite and turn over. ”

"Recently, Li Fuqing is still in the nunnery?"

Meng'e replied: "Since I came back from the hunting palace, I have been following the arrangement of the mother, and I have obediently stayed in the nunnery and never went anywhere, but I have been in frequent correspondence with the queen mother recently, and the general content of the letters is crying about the hard life in the nunnery and so on. ”

Zhou Yanran let out a cold sneer: "From the county lord who shows off her martial arts to a noble girl who has been punished, she naturally has a deep understanding of this kind of identity gap, the queen has always loved her, she naturally wants to cry to the queen and put on small shoes for Chu Bingyue." ”

"Niangniang means ......"

The sneer on Zhou Yanran's face continued unabated: "Write a letter to inform Li Fuqing and let her blow the wind in front of the queen, although that old woman is a jealous person, but the identity of the lord of the six palaces and the mother of the world is unparalleled; Chu Bingyue can escape from the hands of the palace, but if it falls into the hands of the queen, do you think she will still have such good luck? ”

Meng'e immediately understood: "What does Niangniang mean, using the queen's ......?" ”

"However, the queen has always obeyed the emperor's will, otherwise she would not have come forward to intercede in front of the emperor to save her after knowing that Li Fuqing was sent to the nunnery.

Zhou Yanran's eyes flashed with calculation: "Meng'e, why haven't you reacted yet, in the eyes of the queen, how can you pretend to be a little person like Chu Bingyue, and the person she puts in her eyes is clearly San Lang." ”

"As we all know, the queen has no children under her knees, and the emperor's eldest son Zhao Xuan is raised under her name, in other words, if the queen wants to be the queen mother, she will have to do everything to help Zhao Xuan ascend the throne; However, Zhao Xuan's biggest opponent is San Lang. ”

"Recently, many ministers in the court are ready to move in private, urging the emperor to establish a prince, I heard that for this matter, the queen has been sleeping for several days; At this time, if we reveal some news to the Yonghe Palace, deliberately making the queen think that the emperor is more fond of San Lang, do you think the queen can still sit still? ”

Meng'e immediately opened her eyes after a little bit, and said: "It's still a clever plan, the queen doesn't dare to do anything to King Ling as the prince, but she can embarrass the Qingzhou girl who is the princess of Ling; At this time, if Li Fuqing cried about the Qingzhou girl beside her, the queen would only be even more angry, so as to vent all her temper on the Qingzhou girl, after all, people like to pick soft persimmons to pinch. ”

Zhou Yanran glanced at Meng'e appreciatively: "Yes, although the one in Yonghe Palace looks mediocre, if a woman is really mediocre, will she sit firmly on the throne of the queen for more than 20 years?" ”

"Many times, some of the methods of this palace may not be the opponent of that old woman, let alone Chu Bingyue who fell into her hands, how can she have good fruits to eat? This time, Hongu doesn't have to do it himself, as long as he waits quietly, he can enjoy a big play. ”

Meng'e seemed to have seen the Qingzhou girl who had been unlucky in the hands of the queen, and finally showed a sincere smile on her face for the first time in the past few days.

"Niangniang, wait, the slave maid will write to tell Li Fuqing and let her come according to Niangniang's plan."

Zhou Yanran nodded, and her slightly narrowed eyes flashed with a sinister and treacherous glow.

Chu Bingyue, between you and me, after all, we will never die.

……

Because Zhou Yanran's incident happened again, as soon as Chunxing's body was better, this girl tossed about going to Longquan Temple.

On the one hand, Chu Xingyue is to make the little girl happy, and now even she wonders if she is really too weak, so she keeps committing villains; It seems that you should go to worship the Buddha, recite the scriptures, and ask yourself for a talisman to keep you safe.

Therefore, after discussing the day with Zhao Ling, Chun Xing picked a good weather that was quite windy and sunny, took Chu Xingyue, invited Zhao Ling and Yunxiao, and the group rode horses, rode in carriages, and walked slowly towards Longquan Temple outside the city.
