Chapter 667: Heart Knot (2)

Yes, of course!

Why else?

Empress Pei didn't speak, and looked at Emperor Xuanhe in silence. The sparkling water light rolled in the eye sockets, but it didn't fall.

She said she wouldn't lie to him anymore. Therefore, if she can't say it, she would rather not say it, and never say sweet words to coax him.

Emperor Xuanhe felt that his whole person was split in half. Half was soaked in the flames of anger, while the other half was full of bitterness and astringency.

"Pei Wanru," Emperor Xuanhe gritted his teeth and whispered: "You look gentle and weak, but you are actually colder and more ruthless than anyone else." Even if it is a heart of stone, it should be warmed up by me. But you ......"

In this way, it is already the limit of what Emperor Xuanhe, as the Son of Heaven, can express.

The Son of Heaven is also a human being, and he is also flesh and blood. The pain of being hurt by love will not be weakened in the slightest because he is the Son of Heaven.

Queen Pei's voice trembled slightly: "I'm not hard-hearted, and I can't be cold and ruthless." If I were one of those people who were greedy for wealth and power, I would have flattered the emperor many years ago. ”

"The emperor treats me well, I know it in my heart. I still dare to come to see the emperor and tell the truth, just because I rely on the emperor's affection for me. ”

"From now on, I will try my best to forget the past Pei Wanru and treat the emperor wholeheartedly."

"If the emperor is willing to accept the real me as his wife, then please ask the emperor to completely forget the three words Pei Wanru! In this world, there is no Pei Wanru anymore. ”

In this world, there is no Pei Wanru anymore.

In the last sentence, Queen Pei said very calmly. But her gaze was so deep and sad.

Emperor Xuanhe's heart seemed to be twisted by a pair of invisible hands, and the pain was not intense, but it was lasting and sour.

Emperor Xuanhe did not speak again.

Empress Pei also fell silent.

The dormitory was silent, so quiet that you could hear each other's slight breathing.

I don't know how long it took for Emperor Xuanhe to break the silence in a low voice: "It's late at night, let's rest first!" ”

Empress Pei hummed softly.

I heard Emperor Xuanhe say again: "You come to my side and sleep with me." ”

Queen Pei: "......"

Emperor Xuanhe glanced at Empress Pei, who looked stiff, unhappily: "What? Shouldn't husbands and wives sleep together? The words are nice, I let you sleep next to me, and you are not happy? ”

Empress Pei had no choice but to respond. Her body was weak and weak, but it was not difficult for the two beds to lean against each other and move her body to Emperor Xuanhe's side.

It took some effort for her to finally lie down next to Emperor Xuanhe.

Emperor Xuanhe reached out and grabbed her shoulders, and the two of them rested their heads together.

It's too embarrassing to look at each other like this.

Empress Pei quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. Probably because she was too tired and exhausted, and as soon as she closed her eyes, tiredness came to her. Within a few moments, she was literally asleep.

Emperor Xuanhe did not sleep. He kept his eyes open until midnight, just looking at Queen Pei sleeping peacefully in his arms.

It wasn't until the third watch that Emperor Xuanhe closed his eyes and fell asleep.

……

In the early morning of the next day, all the princes and harem concubines came to the Jiaofang Palace to ask for peace.

Zhao Gonggong kept watch in the first half of the night, and only slept for two hours in the second half of the night with his eyes closed. Early in the morning, he was energetic and guarded outside the door of the dormitory. One has to admire Zhao's loyalty.

"Let's ask my father to serve the emperor, and I ask Gonggong Zhao to pass it on." Facing Emperor Xuanhe's most trusted confidant, the eldest prince behaved very politely.

A few days ago, Empress Pei had a high fever, which made Emperor Xuanhe angry. Several princes were scolded bloody, and the concubines in the palace were in danger.

also made everyone see clearly that Queen Pei did not fall out of favor.

Gonggong Zhao hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Your Royal Highness, the emperor slept late last night, and the queen mother was also in the bedroom. Until now, the emperor has not summoned the servants to serve. The minions really didn't have the guts to go in and spread the word. Please also ask Your Highness to be calm and wait quietly. ”

What the?

Empress Pei is also in the bedroom?

was so sick that he couldn't get out of bed, so he was still shyly competing for favor and sleeping with his father. What else can be done......

The eldest prince tugged at the corners of his stiff mouth: "It's okay." ”

The fourth prince and the eldest prince thought of one place, and they both sulked in their hearts. He originally thought that if Queen Pei fell out of favor, his mother Zheng Jieyu would have a chance to regain favor. At that time, he and the eldest prince and brother will be able to work together with the mother concubine to attack the position of the prince.

Now it seems that he is overthinking.

No matter how angry the father is, he has no intention of abolishing the queen, and he has no intention of saving it.

The eyes of the five princes flickered, not knowing what they were thinking.

The young Seventh Prince and Eighth Prince didn't think about it that much. The two waited for a while, and then went to the study to read.

The harem concubines also came one by one.

There is no way, Emperor Xuanhe is angry, and the concubines have to honestly come to ask for peace every day. Queen Pei didn't get well for a day, and they didn't want to stop for a day.

A few days ago, Concubine Wei Xian was angrily scolded by Emperor Xuanhe for "having no intention of serving the queen" because she was dressed too gorgeously, and she cried for a long time in shame and annoyance. Today, he is dressed exceptionally plainly, with only a simple gold hairpin on his head, which can be described as extremely low-key.

Zheng Jieyu glanced at Concubine Wei Xian, and pulled the corners of her mouth with a smile: "Why didn't Concubine Xian wear that colorful phoenix hairpin today?" ”

It's really a pot that can't be opened!

Concubine Wei Xian was not to be outdone, and shot back with a smile: "Jieyu used to like to wear silver red." But in the past few years, Jieyu has been recuperating one after another, occasionally coming out to meet people, and never wearing silver red again. ”

Hehe, who wouldn't.

Zheng Jieyu's face really darkened.

Gu Shufei had to smile and play a round game: "I'll wait to come to Niangniang to ask for help, I just hope that Niangniang will recover as soon as possible, and I hope that the emperor's dragon body will get better as soon as possible." ”

Yu Meiren took over the conversation with a smile: "What Concubine Niangniang said is true." The emperor's dragon body is healthy, and the great Chu country can be stable. The queen mother recovered from her illness, and the harem was stable. ”

The topic was smoothly distracted.

Everyone waited for more than an hour, and waited until their hearts were impetuous, and their hearts were full of trouble, and then they were called into the dormitory.

When I entered the dormitory, I was even more depressed.

Emperor Xuanhe was lying on the dragon couch, his face was still pale and weak, but the haze and anger between his eyebrows and eyes had dissipated, and the corners of his mouth showed a smile that had rarely been seen for more than a month.

Empress Pei was lying beside Emperor Xuanhe. The emperor and queen did not look at each other, nor did they show any affection. That casualness and intimacy were enough to make the concubines pantothenic.

One by one is like drinking a large vat of aged vinegar, not to mention how sour and uncomfortable it is.

All the princes saluted one by one.

The concubines also saluted one by one and greeted the emperor and queen with warmth.

Emperor Xuanhe used to think that everyone was snubbing the queen, but now he suddenly felt that there were too many people, and after everyone saluted and greeted, he opened his mouth and ordered: "I and the queen must recuperate, there are too many people to be noisy." Stand down, and you don't have to come again today. ”

Everyone: "......"
