Chapter 76: I Don't Want to Be a Queen (36)
"Your Majesty."
"Your Majestyβ"
Li Bian shouted at the top of his voice, and hurriedly ran in from outside the Qianyuan Hall with his robe in hand.
Sima Jin leaned on the chair and slept for a while, when he was woken up by this sharp voice, his face was very bad, he looked at Li Bian who was sweating profusely and ran into the hall, and scolded: "Li Bian, you are old, panicked, what's the matter?" β
"Your Majesty, the queen is back."
Sima Jin was stunned for a moment, Huo Ran got up and said, "Tang Ruo is back?" β
Li Bian was dumbfounded, his expression was a little strange, and his voice was two points weaker: "If you go back to the emperor, you are the mother of Empress Kangyuan." β
"What do you say? She came back on her own? What about Tang Ruo? β
Sima Jin got up and walked up to Li Bian and interrogated him coldly.
Li Bian bowed his head and said: "There is only Empress Kangyuan alone, and the guards said that Niangniang returned to the palace by herself." It is said that the queen mother first went to Lord Li's house, and Lord Li took her into the palace, and the slave rushed back as soon as she heard the news. β
Sima Jin was anxious and angry, he didn't know why, he couldn't calm down in his heart, going up and down, as if something bad was going to happen.
He didn't want to blame Li Bian for not being able to ask clearly, so he immediately strode towards the gate of the hall.
At this moment, all he had in his mind was "Where is Tang Ruo?" "Why didn't she come back?" "These questions.
It's just that after seeing Yan Chengyu, those questions seemed to have answers in an instant.
But he didn't want this kind of answer, he wanted to see Tang Ruo and ask her in person, what did she want to do.
Yan Chengyu blessed his body, his eyes were clear, looking at Sima Jin's distracted appearance, his expression was gentle: "Your Majesty can send someone to the westernmost farm yard of the small grange in the suburbs to have a look, but she should not be there anymore." β
Sima Jin was incredulous: "You have been living there for the past few months? β
"Hmm."
Yan Chengyu's face was pale, and she also had to bleed during the Gu induction process, so her health was not good at the moment, but she didn't know what mood she was in, so she stood here waiting for Sima Jin, and didn't let the imperial doctor start treating her body first.
Until this moment, looking at the confused and shocked look on Sima Jin's face, as well as a series of indescribable complex emotions, she suddenly understood what she wanted to see, she wanted to see if this man had a heart.
Sima Jin instructed the guards waiting at the door, "Send someone to take a look there." β
The guards received the order and immediately hurried towards the small grange with a group of men.
Yan Chengyu sat down slowly, holding the hot tea poured by Li Bian, and bowed his head slightly to thank him.
Sima Jin's expression was slightly cold, and he asked, "Why didn't you inform me?" It's fun to see me looking for you guys? β
Yan Chengyu was stunned and said with a smile: "The emperor originally wanted to be a concubine like this? β
"You don't seem to have such a-for-tat relationship with Tang Ruo."
Sima Jin grabbed the corner of the table with his fingertips and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Yan Chengyu lowered her eyes and took a sip of tea to moisten her throat: "Now naturally there is no need to fight-for-tat, after all, she doesn't have many days to live." β
"What do you mean?"
"The emperor can't see it?"
Yan Chengyu pulled open the cuffs of the azure coarse cloth shirt, revealing a piece of his wrist, which was wrapped with a white bandage, and a touch of red was slightly fragile.
"She hurt you."
Sima Jin's pupils shrank, but his brows quickly condensed.
No, if Tang really can't tolerate Yan Chengyu, as long as he no longer uses blood as an auxiliary medicine, Yan Chengyu will die soon.
Yan Chengyu put down her sleeves, the dense water vapor floating in the teacup, she lowered her eyelashes and shook slightly.
"The truth is indeed as the emperor thinks." Yan Chengyu said unhurriedly.
But these words pierced his heart like a needle burning red.
Sima Jin withdrew his hand into his wide sleeve, but where Li Bian and Yan Chengyu couldn't see it, the knobby hand was clenched tightly together, trembling uncontrollably.
She actually ......
She actually lured the worm Gu into her body.
Sima Jin got up and hurriedly walked towards the door.
Yan Chengyu looked at his back and asked aloud, "Your Majesty, where are you going?" β
Sima Jin paused, his eyes quickly cleared, and he looked back at Yan Chengyu, who was like an orchid, and faintly felt very strange.
It seems that it shouldn't be this way.
Yan Chengyu shouldn't have looked at him so indifferently, and Tang Guo shouldn't have introduced Gu worms into his body so decisively, and he didn't even want to see him, so he completely disappeared from this world.
It can't be, it shouldn't, it's not right.
Something messed up in my head.
He leaned against the lattice door, watching the light passing through the eaves of the porch, and was in a trance.
"Your Majesty?" Li Bian looked at his uncertain complexion and dull eyes, and screamed uneasily.
Sima Jin suddenly came back to his senses, turned back to the hall, looked at Yan Chengyu with a gloomy expression, and asked in a deep voice, "Where is she?" β
Yan Chengyu was completely stunned, looked at Sima Jin, who was gloomy, was silent for a few seconds, and shook his head.
"I fainted when I was luring the Gu, she put me in front of Lord Li's mansion, and left on her own after notifying the little girl."
Sima Jin got the answer and left without looking back.
Yan Chengyu put down the cup, leaned on the corner of the table and slowly got up, staring thoughtfully at his departing back.
The grandmother who was waiting on the side carefully supported her and said with concern: "Niangniang is not feeling well, let's go back to the harem quickly, and let Doctor Li diagnose the pulse and prescribe a prescription." β
"Mama, don't you think the emperor has just become ...... Isn't something quite like him? β
Mama was shocked, and immediately reached out to grab her in fear, and whispered: "Niangniang, you must not say this again, it is disrespectful." β
Yan Chengyu came to his senses and said abruptly: "It turns out that it is disrespectful for husband and wife to talk like this. β
She laughed self-deprecatingly, tears in the corners of her eyes, and then gently wiped them away with her fingertips.
"Sure enough, she lived the most sober life."
To survive in this palace, you have to deceive yourself for the rest of your life.

Tang Guo squatted by the beggar's nest outside the city gate, holding a broken bowl, and watched with a sigh on his face as a team of soldiers and horses took over the city gate.
The city gate guards immediately tightened the ranks to enter the city, and the teams out of the city were even blocked in one direction, and they could not leave the city for the time being.
She patted her chest and turned her head
U turned the head of the little beggar next to him.
Tang Guo said expressionlessly: "Those little beggars can't come out for the time being. β
"I know, what are you doing?"
The little beggar slapped her paws away impatiently, very upset that she was terrible
UA wool technology.
"They can't come out and beat you, and you still don't leave?"
Tang Guo didn't care about his attitude, and hugged the little guy's shoulder.
"I'm not afraid of them, huh!" The little beggar puffed out his cheeks and twisted his head.
Tang Guo glanced at the half bun he was holding tightly in his arms and asked, "How many streets are they chasing you for half a bun?" β
The little beggar did not speak.
Tang Guo was not in a hurry, and occasionally glanced at the city gate guards who were checking out the population of the city, and turned his head to glance at the little beggar.
Tang Guo: "Where do you live?" β
The little beggar looked at her for a while and sighed: "The city god is ruined." β
"Let's go, let's go to the City God's Temple first." Tang Guo pouted.
The little beggar patted his pants and stretched out a hand in front of her: "I want to live in a broken temple at night and collect a piece of bread." β
