I knew it was so stumbling, how could I not know each other at the beginning.

-- Li Bai

Dali Temple in the prison

After staying in such a dark place for so many days, Mei Liangyu no longer knew if she could see the sun outside.

He didn't even know if it was day or night outside.

There were always different people who took him to different places, and all kinds of punishments and scourges, as if they were always exhausted, were used on him in a variety of ways.

For a few days, he once doubted that he would be able to persevere.

It seems that only by constantly repeating the same person's voice and smile in his mind can he have a reason to persevere.

It's been a long time since someone last took him out.

Some of the wounds on his body had slowly scabbed, and if he turned over a little and pulled it, it would burst open and bleed, and because of the pain, he lay motionless on the dry pile of straw.

The sound of chains rang in his ears, and Mei Liangyu raised his sleepy eyelids vigorously to see the person who was coming.

"Lord, the slave will also call you the prince, if you know each other, the emperor will come in a while, you can answer truthfully, the slave is also here to give you a thorough understanding, this concubine has already returned, and you don't need to hide anything."

It was Gonggong Li, who came to the prison at the behestage of Miyazawakun to bring him to the palace.

With handcuffs and leg irons, he was not worried that he would be robbed halfway, after all, many of the secret guards in the Beiqing Palace, that day, were not found out.

A royal palace can't be so clean and flawless.

The iron chain was heavy, Mei Liangyu walked on the hard stone slab step by step, and with every step, the wounds on her body would be scabbed and torn open.

This road is not very far, but it is very long, extremely long, as if it is a catastrophe in life, and the process is the most difficult.

At the first sight of the sun, he didn't even dare to look up.

The light outside was too warm, and he had been in the shadows for too long.

After walking for a long time, I finally came to the door of a palace - Qingli Palace.

Going around and around, I didn't expect it to be a stumbling block here.

No one expected that Mei Liangyu's first step into the door of the palace was a greeting.

"You...... It's okay. ”

Mo Ran, whose voice was hoarse, almost couldn't recognize it, if it weren't for the eyes still shining, she would have thought that she was just a beggar from the imperial capital.

There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he didn't care about what others looked like.

"Brother May...... I'm sorry. ”

I'm sorry I didn't live up to your kindness, I'm sorry I didn't stick to my insistence, I'm sorry, I'm back.

But what made her most sorry was that she didn't come back until now, and he suffered for the past few days.

"You didn't, you didn't, you didn't."

The person you are most sorry for is yourself, your freedom, your happiness, the mountains and rivers you yearn for and the magnificence, and the beauty and spring and autumn you hope for.

Now you can only look inside the walls of this palace.

"Miyazawa-kun, the emperor, the emperor! I beg you, please let Brother Mei go, I won't leave again, I will definitely not leave again, will you let him go? ”

Since last night, when Miyazawa Kun came to Qingli Palace, the "presumptuous" voice has already let her know that this person will never go back.

But if her compromise can save someone, she is willing to live in this impregnable palace for the rest of her life.

Miyazawakun looked at Ren who fell on his lap, and was confused, I don't know when it started, and the people around him always seemed to talk to him like this.

Inferior to him, he was submissive, he didn't dare to look directly, and he didn't even dare to make a slightly louder sound.

There was Mo Ran who could stand side by side with him before, but now even she knelt on the ground.

"Are you here to save him, or are you staying for me?"

The cold voice was dangerous and shocking.

When he asked this sentence, he actually had the answer already there.

What he wanted was not her yes or no, not who or who, it was the gaze she looked at when Mo Ran was choosing.

There is no entanglement, no hesitation, no reluctance to rely on others, no fear, no nervousness, no messy emotions.

The bottom of his eyes is very simple, full of dissatisfaction and sadness.

"For myself."

In order to make myself not regret it in the future, I will not blame myself, and I will not swim in the mountains and rivers again, I am sorry why I didn't save them in the first place.

Mei Liangyu, Ji Yanqing, Cen Er, she can't lose each one, and each one is far more important than mountains and rivers.

If that's what she asks, she's doing it for herself.

"King Beiqing! You concealed the traces of the queen, secretly hid a large number of weapons in the palace, the crime of bullying the king, and the ambition of the wolf, I ask you, what is your intention! ”

As soon as the conversation changed, Miyazawa Kun suddenly challenged the weak Mei Liangyu.

"Now... Queen, isn't it in the Flower Palace, minister, there is no concealment, minister, I don't know that Yong'an Niangniang faked her death... The minister did not deceive the king. ”

said that Miyazawa Kun was speechless, he forgot about his canonization of Empress Yong'an, and in front of Mo Ran, this matter was turned out again.

"Why did Yongan say that Mo Ran was in King Su Li's house but there was no trace to be found, did you do it before!"

King Su Li's house?

He still didn't know Mo Ran's whereabouts, and Mo Ran, who he always thought was taken away by Ji Yanqing's people, turned out to be King Su Li.

That Cen Er, does Cen Er also know about this?

"Speak quickly!"

A Praetorian Guard stepped forward and kicked Mei Liangyu to the ground, his knees slamming heavily on the hard ground.

"Shhh

He gasped in pain.

"The minister said from the beginning that he didn't know where Niangniang went, but the emperor himself didn't believe it, and the minister couldn't do anything."

I plucked myself clean.

But Miyazawa-kun called him today, not to give him a step.

"Then I want to see what excuses you have! Someone's coming! ”

There are really a lot of people coming today, and two more people came in from the door at this time-Cen Er and King Su Li.

Originally, Cen Er was the person of King Su Li, and he broke with him for the sake of Mo Ran, and now he came in together, which is inevitably reminiscent.

In addition, the clothes on Cen Er's body were not as tattered as Mei Liangyu, but they were very dirty.

He is still like this for a prince, and a palace maid like Cen Er has not received any punishment, which is also worthy of scrutiny.

Mei Liangyu was not sure about the current relationship between these two people for a while, so he didn't dare to speak.

"King Beiqing, take a good look, is this person you have been thinking about and loving for a long time to marry!"

Asking to marry Cen Er was indeed what he said in front of Miyazawa Kun and Mo Ran that day, but now, everyone understands the reason, but he still has to continue to pretend.

"Back to the emperor, yes."

No matter what the outcome will be in the future, this decision has been made since that day, and Cen Er can only be a person from the Beiqing Palace.

"Back to the emperor, although the slave maid did not make a big gift to the prince, but since the slave maid entered the door of the Beiqing Palace, everything will be the prince's priority."

As soon as I spoke, I heard it, and the days were not easy, except for the pain of the flesh and skin, the other hardships should not be less.

"It's really Lang You's concubine's intention, shouldn't I make up a wedding wine for you today!"

Mo Ran still knelt in place, watching Miyazawa Kun ask questions, watching their answers, and feeling a deep sense of powerlessness.

Didn't she go back to the palace to save them? How can it now put them in a more difficult situation?

She glared at King Su Li, if it weren't for him, there would be no such things.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! It was really King Su Li who took me away, Brother Mei didn't hide it, he didn't know it at all, Your Majesty! ”

I had thought about hiding this matter for him before, but now it seems that the existence of King Su Li and his ambition are the biggest threat to them.

"It's my fault, it's all my fault, Miyazawa-kun, no matter what happened to them, I was bent on leaving, Brother Mei and Brother Qing persuaded me."

"It was King Su Li who took me captive, they don't know, they don't know!"

"Miyazawa-kun, will you spare them? I'm not leaving, really not leaving. ”

With a very aggrieved and desperate cry, suppressed one by one, Mo Ran didn't dare to let his tears flow out, for fear that this tear would stimulate Miyazawa Kun to make any wrong decisions.

Gritted his teeth and endured desperately, but he still couldn't help it, and there was still an unspeakable cry in his pleading voice.

"Ran'er, I've given you a chance."

I originally thought that everything would return to the original point and start all over again, whether it was right or wrong, but it was you, on the day you returned to the palace, after you said that there was no me in your heart, this opportunity had already been abandoned by you.

It's you, Mo Ran, it's yourself, you can't blame me.

Everything Miyazawa Kun does will be to find an excuse for himself, such as setting up a court concubine at that time, such as restoring her, such as putting them in prison.

It's as if everything he does is to take him as the party who has to bear the mistakes, because he can't bear it anymore, because he can't help it.

He can't be wrong, he doesn't allow himself to be wrong.

It's like this time, and he gave it a chance, because she didn't cherish it, so he killed it all.

"Your Majesty, since you are talking about your subordinates, your subordinates must say something."

King Su Li stood up, dressed in purple, fluttering non-stop, and the clothes were fragrant, which was a stark contrast to everyone standing below.

Miyazawa lifted his chin and motioned for him to continue.

"Concubine Li... Niangniang, since you said that you were taken away by this king, may I ask Niangniang, where did you go, where was it, and how did you get out? ”

In the end, I had to pick up the last note and look at her meaningfully.

King Su Li just bit the nail on the head, and Mo Ran wouldn't tell him about that place.

Where are there such slaves, Mo Ran said before, do your best to keep them alive.

But once that secret stronghold is known, then those slaves will still run and serve today, and tomorrow they may be a coffin buried in the soil.

For the sake of those lives, King Su Li bet that she would not tell the food that day.

Sure enough, Mo Ran's mouth opened and closed, wanting to say everything he had seen in those days, but no.

She can't, can't be like this.

That's dozens of people up and down, and she can't let those people die for her words.

Mo Ran stared at him viciously, and he couldn't tell whether the current one and the one who sent her back that day were the same person.

"If you can't say it, how can you wronged your subordinates? The emperor, just based on what Yongan Niangniang said, it can't be concluded that his subordinates kidnapped Niangniang, besides, hasn't the emperor already searched it, but what evidence has been found? ”

It's really a lot of good and bad things that he can say, positive and negative, and he just doesn't suspect it.

Miyazawa-kun won't believe his words completely, but some things are seen with your own eyes, and they are still different from what you heard.

His eyes fell on Mo Ran's body again.
