Chapter 173 I'd rather be alone than sleep with others
It's night.
The full moon rises into the sky, accompanied by the stars.
Qianqing Palace.
In the hot spring pool, the water is warm and the petals float.
Princess Qingtian and Aoi sat naked in the hot spring pool.
Xiao Kui was waiting for Princess Qingtian to bathe, rubbing her shoulders and back.
Princess Qingtian closed her eyes tightly, smiled and enjoyed comfortably.
This smile is a little reluctant, a little sad, and a little helpless.
Su Zecai, the sweetheart she loved with all her heart, abandoned her ruthlessly because of a misunderstanding of hatred.
She wants to redeem it, but there is no room for negotiation, so she can only accept her fate and accept this reality that makes her heartbroken.
My heart was broken, I hurt, I cried, and in the end, my tears dried, but my heart just didn't die, my heart still thought about him, I still loved him, buried deep in my heart, and it was deeply rooted.
What's the use of this?
It's just poor unrequited love!
I wanted to marry him twice, but every time on the eve of marrying him, there would always be an accident, which made the marriage come to naught, not only that, but the two also turned against each other because of this misunderstanding.
Heaven is not beautiful, it seems that even the sky is against this marriage.
"Alas!" Princess Qingtian sighed in a deep voice full of sadness and helplessness.
Hearing the sigh of Princess Qingtian, Xiaokui couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, are you missing Master Su again?" ”
Princess Qingtian smiled bitterly and nodded slightly: "Not really." ”
Xiao Kui whispered: "Why don't you go and see him?" ”
"Alas!" Princess Qingtian shook her head and sighed bitterly, "Why don't I want to see him?" But now he hates me to the core, where do I dare to see him? Seeing him, except to make him unhappy, there is no other effect, so forget it! ”
Xiao Kui was bold and asked: "Your Majesty, in your heart, you really identify with Su Gongzi in this life?" ”
Princess Qingtian did not hesitate: "Of course, in my life, I have identified him!" It is better to be alone than to share the bed with others. ”
Xiaokui asked again: "Your Majesty, is this worth it?" In case Su Gongzi ...... with another woman"
Xiaokui knew that she was speechless, how could she say such sad words to hit the emperor?
So, she hurriedly pleaded guilty: "The slave and the maid lost their words, and the slave and maid deserve death!" ”
Princess Qingtian smiled indifferently: "He is him, I am me, how do I do it, that is my own willingness, I think this is very good in my heart, this is not worth it, it is two different things." ”
Xiao Kui muttered: "The emperor is so infatuated, I hope that Su Gongzi can wake up and no longer misunderstand the emperor." ”
Princess Qingtian looked up to the sky and sighed: "I hope so!" ”
Xiao Kui seriously and silently rubbed Princess Qingtian's shoulders and back, and stopped talking, she was afraid that she would talk nonsense again and make Princess Qingtian unhappy.
Princess Qingtian suddenly asked her, "Xiaokui, don't you think that I, the emperor, should be very cowardly?" ”
Princess Qingtian's words startled Xiao Kui, and she hurriedly responded: "Why did the emperor suddenly say that?" ”
Princess Qingtian smiled bitterly: "Which man in the world is not an emperor with a group of wives and concubines, although I am a female emperor, I can't even get the man I like, isn't it a cowardice?" ”
Xiaokui wanted to cry without tears: "Your Majesty, where do you want to go?" That's right, how can this be compared, you! Just stop thinking about it! ”
Princess Qingtian said categorically: "Okay, if you don't want to, you don't want to!" ”
Xiaokui smiled: "That's right, after a while, the slave will help you finish bathing, sleep well, have a good dream, wake up tomorrow morning, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, that is, your twentieth birthday, you must be happy." ”
Princess Qingtian was about to answer, but the voice of the chief eunuch Xiao Quanzi suddenly came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, Prince Su is here, he is waiting for you outside the door!" ”
Princess Qingtian replied loudly: "Let him in!" ”
After a pause, Xiao Quanzi's voice came again: "Prince Su said that he was waiting for you." ”
Princess Qingtian replied: "I'm not afraid of a woman, what is he restrained by a big man?" Here are layers of bead curtains for the screen, there is no need to taboo, call him in! ”
"Squeak—"
The door was pushed open, Liang Yuanjin came in, and walked to the "front" of Princess Qingtian and Xiaokui.
There are beaded curtains hanging on all sides of the hot spring pool, two layers on each side, very tight, although it cannot be said that Princess Qingtian and Xiaokui are completely invisible, but it looks blurry and true.
Princess Qingtian leaned sideways, didn't turn her head to look at him, but said politely: "There is a stool there, brother-in-law, please sit down!" It's all family, don't seem so outward. ”
"Yes." Liang Yuanjin answered, took the chair beside him, and sat down.
Although there were layers of bead curtains, sitting in the chair and watching the two beautiful girls Princess Qingtian and Xiaokui bathe, Liang Yuanjin still couldn't help but blush and heartbeat, so he had to change his position, put the back of the chair to them, and sat facing the door.
He spoke, "I have relayed your words to him, and he says that in this life, like you, he would rather die alone than marry any more woman." ”
"That's fine." Princess Qingtian smiled bitterly, "This is a great comfort to me!" ”
"I persuaded him to stay in the capital."
"How long?"
"I don't know how long he's willing to stay, I'm just asking him to stay for the time being, but if he's leaving, he should tell me."
"In the end, we can't see each other, and we don't dare to see each other, what difference does it make if we stay or not? Alas! ”
After the words were brought, Liang Yuanjin stood up and said, "If there is nothing else, I will go back first." ”
"Wait!" Princess Qingtian called him, "Tomorrow during the Mid-Autumn Festival, you will hold a banquet in the imperial garden to greet the ministers!" ”
Liang Yuanjin nodded: "Okay!" ”
"Call the eldest sister to come to the Qianqing Palace, my birthday is in the Qianqing Palace, accompanied by the eldest sister, Zhao Xiaomei, and Xiaokui, it's enough, I'm in a bad mood, I ordered to go down, no one else is allowed to come and disturb."
"Okay, don't worry, I'll take care of it."
"It's okay, let's go!"
"Okay."
Although Liang Yuanjin said that he was good, his feet did not move.
His face was solemn and he stood silently, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and finally spoke: "Qingtian, I suddenly want to persuade you. ”
Princess Qingtian smiled, still enjoying Xiao Kui's service, and she said calmly: "What do you persuade me? ”
Liang Yuanjin turned around, faced her, and said solemnly: "It's like when I wanted to die or live, I had to marry you, and you finally persuaded me to give up on you and marry your eldest sister." ”
"What do you want to say?"
"What do I want to say, you know very well in your heart, just think it is for the good of your father and queen mother under Jiuquan, you should forget him! They also don't want you, as the king of a country, to be heartbroken for a ruthless man who is the son of an enemy, and even decide not to marry for life, and never be able to have your own happiness, do you think, they will be happy under the nine springs? ”
"I don't think so."
"Let it go!"
"Is it possible?"
Liang Yuanjin said solemnly: "How is it impossible? You also advised me not to fall in love with someone I shouldn't love, and asked me to die for you, but now you yourself are repeating the same mistake and falling in love with Su Zecai, a person who shouldn't be loved, he has abandoned you, but you are still dying for him. ”
Princess Qingtian smiled miserably: "Men can be flowery, and women can be water-based poplars, but I, a woman, am very single-minded." ”
Liang Yuanjin was a little angry: "What do you mean by that?" Could it be that you persuaded me to give up on you and marry your eldest sister, and I really married your eldest sister, so I am a flower? ”
Princess Qingtian smiled slightly: "Brother-in-law misunderstood, I didn't mean that, I just wanted to say that I am a very dedicated woman!" ”
"That's it, alas!" Liang Yuanjin sighed heavily and turned around, "You are a woman, you can be dedicated to your beloved man, but don't forget, you are also an emperor, so, I hope you can also be dedicated to the subjects of the world, I mean, for the sake of the subjects of the world, you should smile more!" ”
After Liang Yuanjin finished speaking, he walked away.
Princess Qingtian really smiled, this smile, smiled very sweetly.
Even so, her heart is still bitter.
