Chapter 003: First Encounter
As soon as Concubine Yue saw that her daughter was fine, she was no longer so frightened that she needed to be buried, so she took her daughter's hand, gently held her daughter in her arms, and tried her best to pass on her warmth to her daughter!
In the arms of her mother, Xiao Chengxi felt extremely warm, her mother's soft comfort and gentle words made her feel that she was dreaming, in her previous life, her mother's unwilling eyes were not closed, which made Xiao Chengxi extremely painful, she couldn't imagine that she was unexpectedly reborn, and she still had such an opportunity to feel her mother's arms!
Lying in her mother's arms, she had an impulse, and in an instant, it became a determination, in this life, she must not let her mother die unwillingly!
"Queen Mother, is the crux of all this on the Seven Princes?" Xiao Chengxi sorted it out a little, and then he had some clues, this is that Murong Yixuan wants to pay the price for himself, and at the same time, he is also eager to know where his hatred comes from.
As soon as she heard this, Concubine Yue's eyes immediately dimmed, and she touched her head: "Chengxi, the queen mother believes that you will not do evil things, forget it, maybe it's not a bad thing." ”
She just wanted to continue asking, but the cell door was opened with a bang, and two jailers walked in: "The emperor Xuanchengxi has come to see her!" ”
Just obeyed Murong Yixuan's words, and knew that this was a very cowardly emperor! Xiao Chengxi was very disdainful, but after thinking about it, maybe this was an opportunity to rescue her mother and this cousin, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, she would try her best!
When she walked out of the cell and looked back at the two pairs of eyes with endless concern, Xiao Chengxi knew that at this moment, she had no choice to become this princess, no matter what her fate was in the future, she must also take this road!
It's just a few steps, and the wrists and ankles have been rubbed off a layer of skin, and in the prison, a casual movement of oneself will make the mother comfort softly, presumably this deity is also very delicate!
The scars on her body could not extinguish her will in the slightest, she calmed down, followed the two jailers step by step, walked out of the prison, and followed an old eunuch towards the Moon Emperor's imperial study.
The dark and dreary night could not be dissolved like thick ink, the cold wind, and the snow rolled up like mist, enveloping the Qionglou Yuyu of the palace, and even the grass and trees were shivering in the cold wind.
In the dull imperial study, Murong Yixuan, the seventh prince of Qingxiao, sat indifferently on the side, sipping the fragrant tea in the cup, while the Moon Emperor stood on the side, a little low, which made Xiao Chengxi feel depressed, so he simply stood in the room, did not salute, and did not speak!
Seeing Xiao Chengxi's appearance, the Moon Emperor's face suddenly sank, and he was about to say something, but the Seventh Prince sitting on the chair waved his hand: "Your Majesty, can you ask His Royal Highness to say a few words to Princess Chengxi alone?!" ”
The Moon Emperor naturally didn't dare to slack off, and retreated to the door with small steps: "Your Highness the Seventh, please, I will go out and have a look first." A trace of disdain flashed in Xiao Chengxi's eyes, how can this still look like an emperor! still didn't say a word, stubbornly standing in place.
When the door of the imperial study was gently closed, Murong Yixuan slowly stood up from the chair, Xiao Chengxi stared at him, but he couldn't see how he pinched his jaw, he only felt a burst of pain, and his face was held up fiercely, just like the face with anger he just opened his eyes!
"Xiao Chengxi, you should know what I came here for!" Murong Yixuan said very fiercely, and the strength in his hand did not decrease at all!
Xiao Chengxi endured the pain and raised his eyes to look at the angry Murong Yixuan: "I don't know!" "I remember that the queen mother said in the prison that this deity doesn't remember that incident, but with her observation, it definitely has something to do with the Seven Princes, so she can only confess, hoping to know the truth of the matter!
His face suddenly became hot, and Murong Yixuan poured all the hot tea in the teacup in his hand on Xiao Chengxi's face.
"I'd like to see how long you'll quibble!" Murong Yixuan didn't let go of her at all, "You must know how my sister Princess Qinghe died, because you were in front of you at that time, and Princess Qinghe's cloak was in your hand!" ”
Before I had time to say anything, I suddenly felt that I couldn't breathe in my throat! Murong Yixuan's palm like an eagle's claw pinched her neck fiercely, her eyes were already black, and she couldn't even move her thoughts!
Just when she was about to lose her will, fresh air penetrated through her nostrils again, and the cold words were still in her ears: "Xiao Chengxi, because I married the princess, you are crazy to attack my sister, since His Royal Highness has made you so jealous of your infatuation, then good, Your Highness will fulfill you, and you will never want to escape from my palm in your life!" ”
Xiao Chengxi has already sat on the ground due to lack of oxygen, despite suffering so much, she has finally obtained some useful information, the thoughts of the women in the palace are really elusive, the mother looks at her daughter, everything is good, but listening to this Murong Yixuan's words, this Princess Chengxi is devoted to the Seven Princes of Qingxiao, could she really make such a mistake!
"Xiao Chengxi, go and ask your emperor for a decree, I will allow you to become a princess of marriage and marry to my side!" Murong Yixuan took a step back and said coldly.
Xiao Chengxi naturally understood in his heart that he would never have such kindness, and turned to a wry smile, does this still need to ask for a decree, what does this Seventh Prince Murong Yixuan say, does that Emperor dare to disobey! But with a change of heart, I rescued the queen mother!
"My queen mother is still in prison, how can I get married with peace of mind!" Xiao Chengxi was looking for a way to free the queen mother, but after thinking about it, only the uncertain Murong Yixuan in front of her could make her wish!
"A person with a heart like a femme fatale can still take care of other people's lives and deaths, it's really a joke!" Murong Yixuan was very disdainful, "All this, how can you object!" His Highness doesn't care to say a word more! ”
All of Murong Yixuan's arrangements are to avenge his sister, but whenever he sees people who are good to Xiao Chengxi, he will do everything he can to make them disappear, just to see the pain of Xiao Chengxi's loss of relatives!
Seeing Murong Yixuan so cold, Xiao Chengxi slowly stood up from the ground, very stubborn, but said indifferently: "If my mother and cousin can't leave the prison, I will not hesitate to resist the decree and never be separated from the queen mother, die, and die together!" ”
Murong Yixuan couldn't help but lose his mind slightly, his usual anger was replaced by a touch of surprise, he couldn't imagine that Xiao Chengxi could say such a thing! Words like "Resist" came out of her mouth so easily!
