Chapter 263: Sadness
Cherish yourself...... Don't grieve excessively...... In addition to these useless words of care, in the face of Concubine Ling, who was in a state of despair, Chu Zikai searched for thousands of words in his mind, and he didn't know what else to say to comfort.
As everyone knows, if these words are full of politeness and unmixed affection, and fall on the ears of the listener, the concern in them cannot be heard, but adds a lot of life in vain, and it is like a handful of salt that stimulates the severe pain of a wound, and forces the pain to a higher level.
Concubine Ling was sad from her heart, burst into tears, and her crying couldn't help but collapse. The cry has been detached from sadness, and what people perceive is more sadness. Saddening for longing for the love of kings day and night but not begging, and lamenting for asking for but not being able to pay such a great price.
At that time, she was only crowned in Jingzhou City, ignoring how many handsome men gave her quatrain praise poems, in order to enter the East Palace to seek a position on Chu Zikai's side, she was willing to abandon the poetry book to pick up the female virtue, and said goodbye to the wind and snow night that was commensurate with her, and successfully won Yu Zhao's attention with a humble sentence "Don't ask for the king's grace, but ask for silence to keep the king", and also won a sedan chair that pushed her to the boundless loneliness.
At that time, Concubine Ling may have been secretly full of confidence and determination, firmly believing that with her talent cultivation, as long as Chu Zikai's eyes fell on her, she would be able to get him to do it sincerely. I didn't want to be proud and elegant for more than ten years, but I put down my humble figure and lost a lot.
Yu Zhao was not sure if one or two of Concubine Ling's tears at the moment were due to the repentance of the lie she had sown that day that made her lose her freedom and love, but Yu Zhao roughly guessed that she had been able to let go of her obsession recently and be able to sleep peacefully in the middle of the night, perhaps because she had put her expectations for Chu Zikai on the child in her womb.
Looking back, the happiness that I had gambled on with my life's happiness was still unattainable and unattainable, and I couldn't grasp it, and the two ends were empty, so cruel that it was embarrassing.
The screen separated the line of sight, and Concubine Ling's cry became desolate and thick, disturbing Yu Zhao's heart like numbness, so that she couldn't bear to shake her head and sigh lightly, she understood that she should not be welcomed by Concubine Ling at this time, so Zhiqu stopped at the door of the warm hall, and let Chu Zikai carry the child and walk in alone, only silently looking at the situation inside through a veil, not wanting to add a trace of unhappiness to her.
"I know you've worked hard to breed ......" "Go away!" Stay back! ”
As soon as Chu Zikai stepped into the door of the hall with his front foot, he suddenly saw Concubine Ling sitting up and shrinking back, breaking down and shouting to stop his steps, as if she was greatly stimulated by Chu Zikai's action, her crying stopped abruptly, she was so frightened that she yelled, panicked and fled backwards.
"Concubine Ling, I ......"
"Fuck off! Don't come near me!! ”
Another hysterical warning, Concubine Ling was full of defense, her eyes widened in horror, looking at Chu Zikai's eyes as if she was looking at some kind of flood beast, after calming down, she stared directly at the child in his arms, her eyes were full of fear, and finally she shook her head and screamed, fled to the foot of the bed, and hit her head on the head of the bed vigorously:
"Don't come here...... Fuck off! I don't want you to die, don't blame me......"
The sound of her forehead hitting the wooden board was muffled and loud, and in a blink of an eye, Concubine Ling had already hung on her forehead, and her hair was messy and mixed with blood, staining her pale face beyond recognition, but she continued to hit it hard as if she couldn't feel the pain. "Get the hell out of here...... You can't blame me...... I don't want to be like that either! ”
Seeing this, Chu Zikai was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop Concubine Ling's self-harm, before taking a step, and seeing that she quickly raised the incense burner next to the bed as a defensive gesture, her gentle face, which often had a kind smile, became hideous and terrifying at this time, which made Chu Zikai stop in shock.
Yu Zhao saw it clearly outside, only thinking that Concubine Ling's reaction was caused by the pain of losing her son and causing some confusion, in order not to continue to add stimulation to her, and for fear that she would lose her heart for a while and hurt Chu Zikai, she hurriedly stepped forward and pulled him out, and commanded people in a loud voice:
"The people in Jinghualou have all come in, Concubine Ling is weak after giving birth, she is not waiting for her life, she runs out to join in the fun, if you have a good job, don't you want to die?"
When a group of people outside heard the sound, they rushed in, and the housekeeper who was the leader of the house was the wedding companion of the East Palace with Concubine Ling that day, at this time, the tears were not dry and crying like a peach, and hurriedly entered the warm hall, desperately took the incense burner in Concubine Ling's hand, hugged her, and comforted while wiping her tears:
"...... You must take care of your body, Lord Squire has told the slaves and maids thousands of times, if you have any mistakes, how can the slaves and maids live. ”
Concubine Ling nestled in her grandmother's arms and trembled, so sad that she went crazy, pointing to the cradle wooden horse made of mahogany and other children's things that broke down and screamed: "Throw it out!" Throw it out......"
"Niangniang, you cherish, don't cry in the cold autumn and your throat hurts......" Mama Chang persuaded earnestly, pressed Concubine Ling's head in her arms, and comforted softly, "You have been loved by the old lady since you were a child, you must remember their grace, don't do stupid things to practice yourself, and practice them......"
The waiter on the side also echoed the comfort: "Yes, Niangniang, you must remember the good of Lord Shilang and the old lady, the hearts of the entire Ling family are worried about you, please be considerate and considerate of them, cherish them." ”
Under the comfort of the acquaintances who got along day and night, I finally saw Concubine Ling gradually calm down, and after trembling and stopping her movements, Concubine Ling slowly lay down weakly, her red eyes were full of exhaustion, her mouth trembled and sobbed, and she kept muttering: "Don't come here...... Please, let me go, I don't want you to die......"
Chu Zikai is also suffering from the pain of losing her son and losing her responsibilities at this moment, and he can fully understand Concubine Ling's grief-stricken and almost heartless mood at this time, and he doesn't want to provoke the pain in her heart anymore, so he ordered the imperial doctor to come in and treat the wound on her head for her, and whispered another sentence to recuperate, took Yu Zhao together, silently turned around and walked out of the palace gate, waved Feng Yun over, endured the heartache, pointed to the back, and slowly ordered:
"The royal hospital has been working hard to recuperate Concubine Ling, and the little prince will ...... Buried ......"
Immediately, someone from the palace stepped forward and took the child in Chu Zikai's hand and took it away, Chu Zikai looked up at the people around him, each of them was expressing sadness with tears, and they all looked innocent, but the anger bred by the grief in his heart could not be suppressed at all by the innocence of this appearance, and the voice of questioning was as cold as a knife, and it sounded fiercely.
"I just heard that Concubine Ling's premature birth was caused by the invasion of scorpion venom, where did the scorpion venom come from, and why did it hurt Concubine Ling?"
