Chapter Forty-Three: A Dream of Floating Life

Liang Yanyu had an extremely ridiculous dream.

In the dream, she saw her aunt who had been absent for many years, met her father and mother, and met the cousin she had been thinking about - her husband, the son of heaven in the dynasty, and the woman -

Pei Yao.

In the dream, Pei Yao's appearance was still the night when the concubine was abolished in the Long Autumn Palace - a plain white dress, with a loose bun, no makeup and no powder.

"I've always regretted it." In a trance, she remembered that she was smiling, and said to Pei Yao with regret: "When you died, I couldn't take a look at that scene in Changqiu Palace. ”

The person sitting next to her smiled.

"Bloody, what's there to see?" Pei Yaowei quietly looked into her eyes and said to her, "After all, you just know that I'm dead." ”

No way.

She told Pei Yaowei: "It's not enough. ”

Pei Yaowei was still smiling, smiling softly and softly, as if she was watching a play.

- is such a look, which has always been what Liang Yanyu hates the most.

She heard Pei Yaowei ask herself, "Then what do you think, how is it enough?" ”

"It's enough for you to die without a place to bury." She told Pei Yaowei viciously and as if relieved: "It's enough for my cousin to abolish you and for him to kill you with his own hands!" ”

Pei Yao smiled and asked, "Do you hate me like this?" But what do you hate about me? Obviously, in the past, in the palace, you have always been dealing with me, how could I have ever poisoned you? ”

"What do you know?" She sneered: "The position of Princess Qin and the position of the queen should all be mine!" ”

"You're deadβ€”you're dead, but you're still your cousin's rightful wife, his cousin, and he's the one he thinks about."

"But what about me?"

The more she talked, the more angry she became, and she vaguely felt a little aggrieved, "I have done so much for him, why do you mourn after you die, and I, even terminally ill, can only nest in this unsightly realm, and I don't even have a name?" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Pei Yao laugh.

This time it's not like ever, it's not a dispensable laugh, it's a joke.

"What did you do for him? How can you compare to me? She seemed to see Pei Yao Huo Ran get up, looked at her condescendingly, and asked with contempt in her eyes: "Do you know that when the two kings competed for the throne, I made a plan for him, and how many people were defeated by myself?" ”

Liang Yanyu also laughed.

"Haha...... Pei Yaowei, do you really think you know everything? She scoffed: "The two kings are vying for the throne...... Ha, two kings compete for the throne! If it weren't for me, who would have come to fulfill this battle for the throne between the two kings! ”

Pei Yaowei didn't speak, just looked at her.

She was still smug and said, "If it weren't for me...... Cousin, he only has to be bullied by you! If it weren't for me, where would he have come to this throne......"

As she spoke, her face changed, from fierce to soft, but in an instant.

"But why does he need you when he has me? …… Cousin, cousin...... You promised me, cousin, why don't you remember? You obviously promised Yanyu back then...... You said, you said that as long as I and Pan Tian ...... As long as I make her think that the prince is interested in her...... You said you would marry me as the princess of Qin! …… You still said that you would marry me as your wife, but why is it all different? Why is everything different......"

Liang Yanyu is delirious, so he will say one sentence on the left and one sentence on the right, without a charter, and what to say when he thinks of something.

But just after she said this, for a moment, Pei Yaowei almost went crazy.

"What did Xiao Zhudu make you do?!" She tore off the bed curtain, her sharp gaze was wedged on Liang Yanyu's face, and she shook her fiercely and asked, "What have you done?" ”

She was answered by a violent cough.

After the maid of Yuhuaguan and Qingchen went to Mr. Yiyuan to get a new recipe and came back, they saw Princess Chu sitting alone in the outer room, staring at her eyebrows, not knowing what she was pondering, and in the inner room, her own master, who did not know whether she was asleep or unconscious, lay there, and from time to time there were a few sick moans, long and annoying.

On the way back, Qingchen found that the princess's expression was very wrong.

She wanted to ask, but she was afraid that it would be inconvenient to talk outside, so she waited until she returned to Shuchi Pavilion before she took the princess's sleeve in a panic and asked, "Niangniang, what's wrong with you?" Could it be that Yuhua real people bullied you? Why is your face so bad? Don't scare the slaves! ”

Pei Yaowei listened to her words and vaguely thought, did Liang Yanyu bully herself?

It's impossible for her to look sick and crooked now.

But what about the old days?

"I'm fine." She smiled reluctantly, rubbed Qingchen's head, only said that she was hungry, ordered a few dishes that were not easy to make, and carried Qingchen to the small kitchen.

In the inner room, he was the only one left, Pei Yao sat on the Luohan couch, holding his forehead, frowning.

From Liang Yanyu's delirious words, she probably found the reason why Xiao Zhu had to kill this cousin back then.

But this reason was something she had never thought of.

Liang Yanyu, same ...... Pan Tian?

They are all famous ladies who grew up in the capital, and Pei Yaowei knows that these two have known each other since childhood. But before today, she had never considered the two names together.

According to the meaning of Liang Yanyu's words, back then, it was Xiao Zhu who secretly ordered her to work Pan Tian, making Pan Tian think that Xiao Di was interested in her, so she ...... Fang just grew her bear's heart and leopard gall, and gave birth to those things that followed?

If this is the case, then it means that Xiao expelled him......

Pei Yao opened her eyes suddenly, leaned down and breathed violently several times.

When the two kings competed for the throne, did he fall into Xiao Zhu's calculations from the beginning without knowing it?

Before she knew it, she was shaking, first on her fingertips, then on her palms, and finally all over her body.

The answer seemed to be right in front of her, but she didn't dare to think about it, let alone accept it.

Or, is it Liang Yanyu's nonsense in the chaos?

Or......

"!"

Aunt Song's voice suddenly came, which frightened her heart.

Frowning slightly, she asked, "Why is my aunt so anxious?" ”

"The letter that Yuhua Guan just came, Yuhua is a real person...... Dead! ”

Hearing this, Pei Yao Huo Ran got up, and her color changed greatly.

When she arrived at the Yuhua Temple, she was far away, and she first heard the cry from the temple.

Liang Yanyu, just dead?

Pei Yaowei stood at the door in a trance for a long time, still a little incredulous.

is obviously talented, and he still talks to her, why did she die in a blink of an eye? Isn't it...... Is that scene just now her return?

She was thinking about it, but she felt a dark figure approaching her, and when she turned her head, it was Mr. Yiyuan.

"Princess, Yuhua Zhenren is indeed dead." He whispered.

Pei Yaowei nodded and asked, "The imperial doctor has checked the pulse and confirmed the illness?" ”

Mr. One Yuan reassured her.

"Niangniang," Aunt Song saw that she had stood at the door for a long time and did not move, so she reminded her: "Go in and take a look, it's not good to lose the courtesy." ”

In the room, Empress Dowager Liang sat on a Taishi chair a foot away from the bed, wiping her tears with a handkerchief, and when she saw her come in, she didn't even leave her room to salute, and immediately asked: "You still dare to come?!" Don't kneel down for the mourners! ”

Pei Yaoyuan's still somewhat stiff brain instantly became active, she looked around, lifted her skirt slightly, knelt down slowly, and said respectfully: "I don't know what happened wrong with the concubine, why did the Holy Mother be so angry?" ”

"Oh, you don't know?" Empress Dowager Liang said, suddenly got up and strode towards her, without saying a word, raised her hand, and was about to fall into her face-

"Our Lady Queen Mother is angry!"

It was Aunt Song who spoke.

Pei Yaowei looked up and saw that Aunt Song was charged with the crime, raised her hand and stepped forward, and stopped the slap of the Empress Dowager Liang. Before Empress Dowager Liang could speak, Aunt Zong had already shouted: "Bold! How many heads do you have to dare to stop the Queen Mother! ”

"Slaves don't dare." Aunt Song said calmly, as she spoke, she withdrew her arm, shook it slightly, and slipped out of her cuffs.

It is a warrant from the Queen Mother.

Empress Dowager Liang's face was ruthless, but she saw that Aunt Song was holding on to Empress Dowager Li's warrant, and said proudly: "If Princess Chu is wrong, Our Lady should teach for the Empress Dowager." It's just that the slave maid is on this trip, and she is ordered by the queen mother to take care of the princess, and before you want to punish her, you must first clarify the princess's crimes, otherwise, not to mention that the slave and maid are not good in front of the queen mother, it is the Holy Mother, and it may be difficult to convince the public! ”

Empress Dowager Liang laughed angrily, "Okay! The mourning family let her die to understand! "After that, she called 'Ruyi', and Aunt Zong took the order, and hurriedly brought a maid who served in the Yuhua Temple.

Pei Yao saw that it was the one she had met when she came over earlier.

"You say!" Empress Dowager Liang pointed to the trembling maid and said: "Before the death of Yuhua Zhenren Immortal, who came to Yuhua Temple, what did you see!" ”

The servant girl shrank and knelt on the ground, not daring to raise her head, and said something like a mosquito, but no one could hear it clearly. Empress Dowager Liang was angry and shouted: "I can't say it clearly, the mourning family doesn't want your tongue!" ”

The maid was bluffed by her, and two lines of tears suddenly appeared, and her voice was a lot louder, even trembling, and people were panicked when they heard it.

She said, "Back to ...... Back to Our Lady, Our Lady of the Queen Mother! Before the death of the master, it was ...... It's the princess of Chu who has come! Niangniang sent the slave and maid to Mr. Yiyuan to get a new recipe, and when the slave and maid returned, she would see the master...... Seeing that she was lying quietly on the bed with her master, the slave and maid slept as the master, and sent away the princess of Chu, and she didn't take it seriously, who knows......"

"Who knew that the right slave went to call the master to get up and drink medicine, only to find out that the master was ...... Master, she's already ......"

Speaking of this, she hid her face and cried bitterly, and it was difficult to speak.

"Xiangyu, what else do you have to say?" Empress Dowager Liang looked down at her and sneered: "You have come to take a look, and this niece of the mourning family is dead...... It can be seen that the mourning family really underestimated you in the past! You're a living Hades! ”
