Chapter 21: Affectionate and Ruthless

Does Xiao Chai love her?

Pei Yaowei never doubted the answer to this question.

But the love and dislove of the emperor's family are not always the same as kindness and harshness. When love and harshness are put on one person at the same time, it is the most painful.

She sorted out her mood and looked at Xiao Zhu eagerly, "The courtiers are fortunate to have a little bit of a look like the former queen, and I have seen you in the palace these few times, and I always feel that the eyes you look at the courtiers are full of remembrance of the former queen." His Majesty's affection for the former Empress is really moving. ”

In a word, the Tao is full of empathy.

Sure enough, Xiao Chai listened to her words, and his color became more and more pleasant, and he couldn't help but praise: "It's rare that you are so sensible." ”

As soon as the water came to fruition, Pei Yaowei took the opportunity to propose to him, made his own prayer flags, and wanted to go to Gyeonggi Zhaoye Temple to pursue blessings for Empress Renyi.

"The courtiers heard from my sister that His Majesty and the former Empress met in Zhaoye Temple, and the former Empress valued Zhaoye Temple during her lifetime, and had visited several times and repaired several times. Now that Chinese New Year's Eve is approaching, the courtier daughter thinks of going to mourn and pray for the maiden, in order to repay the maiden's deep kindness to the courtier. I hope that Your Majesty will be fulfilled! ”

When Xiao Chai heard Zhaoye Temple, his brows frowned imperceptibly, and after thinking about it for a while, he finally nodded.

"Go ahead." He said meaningfully: "Just remember to come back." ”

Pei Yao was embarrassed and said in a low voice: "Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace!" ”

After Min Dai returned to the palace, Xiao Chai had already left.

Regarding Xiang Yinghuai's replacement of Pei Qingtan to marry Zhou Guoyuan, Pei Yaowei originally thought that she would not approve, but her reaction was much calmer than she expected.

But when she thinks about it, she can understand. Min Dai has always disliked Yinghuai, and naturally she is not as good as Qingtan. When there is nothing to do, it is to protect, but the current situation is like this, no matter where you consider it, Yinghuai marrying far away is a matter that has more advantages than disadvantages for the Xiang family. She had nothing to object to.

Pei Yaowei told her that she was going to Zhaoye Temple, and after listening to it, she didn't ask her what her plans were, but only assigned Tear Qing to serve by her side, and told her not to do anything on her own.

Pei Yaowei responded one by one, and two days later, he left the imperial palace.

Before leaving the palace, just in time for the Queen Mother and Queen Mother to send Aunt Song to Xiancui Palace, she begged Xiang Yinghuai with regret to return to Nafang Gugui, and at the same time, she also rewarded her with a lot of treasures to add makeup.

At that time, Tear Qing laughed beside her, only saying that this Gu Gui still took it back when he arrived, and he Shougong was not afraid of being embarrassed at this time!

Hearing this, Yao Wei shook her head and smiled, but didn't say anything.

Zhaoye Temple has not changed much compared with the past, she is in charge of the abbot too asked for a small courtyard in the maple forest behind the temporary residence, most of the month, but it is rare to live a quiet day.

In a blink of an eye, it's Chinese New Year's Eve.

Celebrating her own death day alive, she finished the evening class with her sisters-in-law at night, and on the way back to her residence, this thought popped up in her mind, and she didn't feel a sneer.

When she heard this, she asked her what was the matter.

Pei Yaowei shook her head, but at this time she felt that her stomach was a little empty, so she asked her to get some porridge and side dishes and sacrifice to the Five Organs Temple.

Seeing that the lights were dim everywhere and the people were depressed, she was a little hesitant and repeatedly told her to be careful, so she left uneasily.

In the middle of the moon, Pei Yao carried a lantern and slowed down.

This is a very special day for her, but at this time, she recalls everything before she died, thinking about her child who did not survive, but her mood is not as turbulent as she expected.

Probably, the divine consciousness has been trapped in the sword and tortured for three years, and what kind of pain is painful, and even if you look back, you will be numb, only the hatred brought by the word betrayal can always be invincible, which is also rare.

She was so caught up in the thought that she didn't notice that the path under her feet had gone astray, and she didn't come back to her senses until she was stopped by a short shout.

"Who?!"

In the desolate and barren garden, there was a person, dressed in a dark robe and a sable coat, standing alone among them.

The moonlight, which was not very abundant, seemed to be all reflected on this person, Pei Yao saw his face clearly in surprise, and then he was shocked-

"Xiao Di......?!"
