Chapter 42: The Record of the Holy Lord (1st Update)
Concubine Han was stunned for a moment, and a bad premonition suddenly appeared in her heart.
"What are you going to doβ"
She hurried to chase, panicked and didn't care about her manners, and ran under the attention of the palace people with her skirt.
Mama Pei Yun was frightened that something big was going to happen, so she hurriedly caught up with her, and carefully supported Concubine Han.
Fu Yingran stood in place and looked at the backs of the three of them in the distance, hesitating whether to catch up.
She is an outsider and is not fit to appear.
But this is a good opportunity to explore Concubine Han's secrets, and perhaps learn about the unexpected gains.
When Fu Yingran was the last to follow Concubine Han to sleep, he happened to bump into Concubine Han and slapped King Yan in the face.
On the ground between the two of them, a crumpled book lay with torn pages and confetti scattered everywhere.
Concubine Han's eyes were red like rabbits, the air was cold, and her hands hanging by her side kept trembling.
"No one can believe in the Lord, but you can't! If there is no Holy Lord, where is you King Yan. β
It was the first time she had seen her so out of shape and roaring, like an enraged trapped beast.
Fu Yingran stood outside the door in astonishment and did not enter, and the people in the room were also full of surprise.
King Yan was stunned for a long time before he said in disbelief, "What do you say...... What do you mean? β
Concubine Han's chest rose and fell, Xu is calm down and realized that she was emotional, and said something that should not be said, picked up the book on the ground with a short body, and turned her back to King Yan.
"I don't want to see you right now."
She meticulously smoothed the crumpled cover, unfolding the shredded pages one by one, piece them together.
King Yan excitedly turned to her and asked urgently, "You explain clearly, what does the Holy Lord have to do with me?" What do you mean there would be no me without her? β
Concubine Han didn't want to face him, so she went to the warm pavilion next to her, he wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Pei Yun's grandmother.
"Your Highness, you better go back first. I'll talk about anything when the concubine is in a better mood. β
Talking halfway is the most uncomfortable.
King Yan wanted to find out what Concubine Han meant, but it was not easy to break in, so he paced back and forth in the house a few times, and finally left.
When Fu Yingran walked lightly to the warm pavilion, Concubine Han was lying on her side on a soft couch and weeping, her elbows propped up on the table.
The book was badly damaged, and lay pitifully at hand.
Fu Yingran saw the title of the book on the coverβthe Record of the Holy Lord.
Mama Pei Yun handed a handkerchief to Concubine Han distressedly, sighed long, and walked silently to Fu Ying,
"County Lord, the concubine likes you very much, you can talk to the concubine."
Fu Yingran nodded, and Pei Yun withdrew from the warm pavilion.
Fu Yingran poured a cup of warm tea and handed it to Concubine Han, watched her take a sip, put the teacup away, and sat down on the soft couch.
"His Royal Highness King Yan is just emotional, don't be too sad."
Fu Yingran accompanied her comfortingly, holding her hand and patting it gently, and the tears rolling down Concubine Han suddenly became even more turbulent.
"Do you know that I was just an ordinary peasant girl in Ximing Kingdom, and when the emperor was still a prince, he traveled to Ximing Kingdom and met me, defiled me, and became pregnant. And I already had a loved one at that time. β
Concubine Han was sad, the corners of her mouth trembled, recalling the painful past, and said slowly.
"I'm too weak to resist his strength. I wanted to kill myself, but I already had a child in my belly, so I couldn't be ruthless. I thought, maybe, this is fate, and no one can help it. When I was seven months pregnant, he heard a rumor out of nowhere that I was secretly in a relationship with someone and that the baby in my womb was not his. In a fit of rage, he punched and kicked me, who was pregnant, and he thought I was dead and threw me into a mass grave......"
Concubine Han choked up, her voice was hoarse, tears were pouring out, and she couldn't go on.
Fu Yingran caressed her back, and then her words were softly tentative, "So, it was the Holy Lord who saved you?" β
Concubine Han covered her lips with a handkerchief and kept sobbing, but she insisted on not letting herself cry a little.
She is a person who is very good at forbearance, and since she stepped into this palace, she has been forbearance all her life.
Today's scene still did not make her abandon the habit of forbearance and indulgence.
"The Lord is his savior, and he must not disrespect him."
Fu Yiran didn't expect Concubine Han to have such a bizarre experience, and it was the first time she knew that Concubine Han was from Ximing.
The country of Ximing is very far away from the country of twilight, and if you come here from your hometown, you will never be able to go back.
Fu Yingran has a great curiosity about the Holy Lord in his bones, and always wants to know about this legendary woman.
She asked Concubine Han, "The concubine has seen the Holy Lord, what does the Holy Lord look like?" What kind of person is he? β
Concubine Han wiped her tears, a smile bent into the corners of her eyes, her reddened eyes looked at her gently, and she rubbed her long hair.
Concubine Han thought for a while and said, "She is a person worth putting in your heart, you can see her just by looking in the mirror." β
"...... in the mirror"
Before Fu Yiran could decipher the meaning of her words, Concubine Han opened her mouth embarrassedly again.
"What a gaffe today. I don't know why I'm telling you this, but you've forgotten it. β
Fu Yingran nodded, promising that he would never tell anyone else.
What Concubine Han said today can be described as a great rebellion, if it is spread out, it will kill her.
These deepest whispers and resentments hidden in the bottom of my heart have been told to Fu Yingran, and it is enough to show my trust and true love for her.
It wasn't until Concubine Han was so tired that she fell asleep that she left Rongping Palace.
On the way back to Yinghui Garden, she had been thinking about Concubine Han, and suddenly stopped and asked the three crescent people around her.
"Do you know the Book of the Holy Lord?"
Crescent Moon and Fu looked at each other, their expressions were a little subtle,
Tian Guangfeng was afraid that someone would take the lead, so he raised his hand and replied with a big grin, "The villain knows." Almost everyone who believes in the Holy Lord has a copy, and even illiterate people will buy one and keep it at home. β
"What's written on it?"
Tian Guang's face was full of pride, "I know this, I have read this book." β
"You're not illiterate."
Crescent Moon debunks his lies.
Tian Guangfeng craned his neck to defend, "I can't read, but my cousin is literate, I listened to him." These are short stories about the Lord helping others, and nothing else. β
Fu Yingran was a little surprised, she thought it would be some kind of demagogic tirade, or the regulations that believers need to follow.
"The Holy Lord was a beggar?"
Fu Yingran raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked, this is what she heard from King Yan's words.
Tian Guangfeng sighed, "The Holy Lord's life is a legend of twists and turns. She was abandoned by her parents when she was a child and was raised by a beggar. Later, he became the national teacher of Tianyang and was known to the world. β
"I see."
"Why did the master suddenly ask about the Holy Lord? Why did King Yan get so angry? I watched him run to Concubine Han's bedroom, and Concubine Han was still chasing after her......"
Tian Guangfeng chattered curiously, and before he finished asking, he felt the warning gaze of Fu Yingran.
"In the palace, be cautious in your words and deeds. What to ask and what to say, have a number in your heart. β
Tian Guangfeng's bright face immediately retracted, and he lowered his head and responded, "Villain, remember." β
After being trained, Tian Guangfeng was quiet, and returned to Yinghui Garden in silence all the way, and immediately went to the small kitchen.
He said before that today he was going to show his cooking skills and let Crescent Moon and Fuyan see it.
