Chapter 632: Return to the palace with me
You said that you stayed in the palace for fear that someone would harm you and your children, and you said that you had no thoughts, didn't you think about seeking refuge from me? The emperor asked coldly.
Concubine Lan was slightly stunned, and then said in a low voice: "The emperor is in charge of everything, there are so many things to do every day, and there are countless beauties in His Majesty's harem, how can he be distracted for the sake of his concubines?" ”
She said it so naturally, so humblely, that the emperor's heart hurt instantly.
"So you don't even want me, do you? But as you clearly said, you only have me in your heart, you love me, and you are willing to do everything for me, so all of this does not include staying in the palace for me? The emperor asked step by step, staring at Concubine Lan's body, his eyes were full of grievances, as if he had been abandoned.
Concubine Lan looked at him with some dumbfounded.
Why does she think that the emperor at this moment is like a child who can't get candy to eat?
But he is the emperor, the king of a country, what do you want, how can he show such a look? She must have been mistaken.
Concubine Lan thought about it, lowered her eyebrows, and said lightly: "Your Majesty is the king of a country, your majesty who cares about the world and the people of the world. ”
When the emperor heard this, his heart suddenly twitched, and he only felt that the pain was not his own.
Concubine Lan continued: "As for Your Majesty, if you can't afford the concubine, you can't ...... I don't want it anymore. ”
Duplicity, let's talk about the current situation.
Obviously, she still has extravagant hopes, and she obviously wants him, but now, apart from saying this, she doesn't know what to do.
Concubine Lan endured the heartache and thought silently.
The sentence "I don't want it anymore" made the emperor like a lightning strike, and he didn't say anything for a while.
His hands were clenched into fists, his eyes were a little flustered, she didn't want him anymore, did she really stop loving him? So when I left, I didn't give up at all.
But how could she be so ruthless? After he fell in love with her, he just pulled away so neatly, so what should he do?
If she really didn't have him in her heart, why did she give birth to his child?
The emperor is the emperor in the end, after the initial panic, the emperor quickly calmed down, and he thought of the mistakes and omissions.
His eyes fell on Concubine Lan's body, and he raised his hand to lift her chin, forcing her to look at him, and he also saw the hidden sadness in her gaze.
"You're lying." The emperor opened his mouth word by word.
Concubine Lan met his burning gaze, full of embarrassment, and couldn't help laughing bitterly at herself, "Your Majesty, why should you be so serious, as long as someone bears the charge of bullying the king, isn't it enough?" ”
There was a faint begging in her eyes, and she didn't want to drag Su Jinhan and the others in at all.
The emperor looked at his lungs and was about to explode.
This girl is too real, why didn't you think he liked her?
How did he know that the reason why Concubine Lan didn't think like this was because she didn't dare to think about it, after all, as an emperor, how many people would give her sincerity?
The emperor was about to punish her severely, and the child in her arms suddenly cried.
"Your Majesty, the child is hungry, call the nurse in first, and take the child away to feed, okay?" Concubine Lan's eyes were full of begging.
The emperor happened to have something to say to her alone, so he agreed.
When the nurse came in and took the child away, the emperor gave Zhang Fuhai a look and asked him to follow, obviously afraid that the nurse would take the child away, and he didn't want to make any more twists and turns.
Concubine Lan's expression was slightly gloomy when she saw this, but she didn't say anything.
She knew in her heart that it was what she did that made him jealous, and she couldn't blame him.
After the nurse took the child away, the world was quiet, and the emperor looked at Concubine Lan with lowered eyebrows, and his heart was full of helplessness.
She was too sensitive, too vulnerable, as if she were going to completely isolate him from the world, so that he couldn't get close.
But he didn't know that she was still alive, and now that he knew, how could he still let her slip out of his nose?
Concubine Lan didn't know what the emperor's silence meant, compared to concentration, Concubine Lan naturally couldn't win the emperor as an old fox, not to mention that Concubine Lan was worried that this matter would involve Su Jinhan and them, so she was even more flustered, where could she think calmly?
So she bit her lip and spoke first: "What does Your Majesty want to do with the concubines?" ”
When the emperor heard this, a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes.
Look, look! As soon as she opened her mouth, she disposed of it, as if he had nothing else to do with her.
The emperor asked hard: "What do you want me to do with you?" ”
Concubine Lan whispered: "How to deal with it, the concubines are willing to bear it, as long as Your Majesty does not anger others." ”
The emperor felt that he was entangled with her again, and he was afraid that he would become the first emperor of the Dakang Empire to be angry to death, so he could only grit his teeth and whisper: "You just want me to dispose of you so much?" Didn't you think about returning to me? ”
Concubine Lan looked up at him in astonishment when she heard this.
What the? Back to him?
Can she?
How can she?
The surprise in Concubine Lan's eyes was extinguished almost as soon as it rose.
She thought, maybe His Majesty is just a delaying tactic, and when she and the child really return to the palace, he will deal with the Su family, and then how can the Su family have a chance to live?
Maybe she can apologize with death, so that looking at Zhuang Jingcheng and the child, the emperor may be able to open up.
Thinking about it like this, Concubine Lan is determined to live and die!
The emperor was shocked to perceive the dark thoughts of the person in front of him, and he didn't dare to fight with her anymore, so he hurriedly hugged the person in his arms and reprimanded him in a low voice: "Don't think nonsense, and drive away all the bad thoughts in your head." ”
Being hugged by the emperor like this, Concubine Lan felt that her brain was beginning to knot.
She has never been able to resist him.
The emperor said in a low voice: "You big fool, can't you see that I have you in my heart, I want you, and I want to see you every day?" ”
Concubine Lan's chin rested on his shoulder, and her eyes suddenly widened when she heard this, her eyes were full of surprise and disbelief.
The emperor seemed to be able to imagine Concubine Lan's surprised appearance, the smile on the corner of her mouth was faint but happy, and she said in a low voice: "I like you, I started a long time ago." Do you know how sad I was when I found out you were dead? I was thinking, God is too cruel to me, but if I like a woman, it will take it away, first Concubine Li, then you. I think I might just be lonely and die ......."
"Your Majesty is not a lonely life." Even at this moment, Concubine Lan didn't like to hear him say something derogatory about herself, so she immediately refuted it, and then said very seriously: "Your Majesty is the true son of heaven and the king of Kangguo, that is a person who will be passed down for hundreds of generations and generations, how can he be so arrogant?" ”
When the emperor heard her indignant words, he couldn't help but chuckle.
Look, she's so stupid, even if she's worried that he's going to deal with her now, she's still reluctant to let him be the slightest bit bad.
Putting away the laughter, the emperor continued to whisper: "At the beginning, Concubine Li's death was because of my carelessness and failure to nip the danger in the bud in time, which led to Concubine Li's death, so when I recognized my heart clearly and knew that I had you in my heart, I deliberately distanced myself from you, so as not to be targeted by others and encounter accidents." ”
Concubine Lan was slightly stunned when she heard this, and immediately remembered that when she was in the palace, the emperor had always treated her well, and the time she came to her bedroom was also the top among many concubines, otherwise there would be no rumors that His Majesty favored her alone.
But soon after this rumor spread, Her Majesty stayed away from her, and did not summon her for a long time.
And during that time, the emperor had a new love, a beauty offered by a courtier, and he was favored for a while.
During that time, she was very sad, and that time happened to be when she was pregnant.
Because she was in a bad mood and because the menstrual period was not accurate, she carelessly did not notice the changes in her body and almost buried the child's life.
When Concubine Lan thought of this, her heart tightened at the same time, she was more cowardly, she couldn't believe that the emperor's words about liking her were true.
The emperor then continued: "At that time, I tracked down the murderer who had killed Concubine Li for many years, and then you had an accident, and then my heart was like ashes, and now after the other party was wiped out, I felt that the height was unbearable, and I wanted to give up the throne to Cheng'er and become a monk." ”
"What, Your Majesty is going to become a monk?" Concubine Lan exclaimed.
She broke free from the emperor's arms and looked at him anxiously and panickedly: "No, no, Your Majesty is wise and martial, how can you become a monk?" ”
Concubine Lan made up for the picture of the emperor with a bald head, and suddenly the whole person was not good.
Not to mention the appearance of the emperor after becoming a monk, I am afraid that if the news of this renunciation spreads, it will cause a crazy backlash and obstruction of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, which will definitely not work.
If people know that the emperor's intention to become a monk is related to Concubine Lan, and if they know that Concubine Lan deceived the monarch to death, I am afraid that the entire Su family will be destroyed, and Zhuang Jingcheng will definitely be affected.
Concubine Lan felt terrified just thinking about it, and there was only one thought in her mind, stop him, you must stop him.
The emperor saw Concubine Lan's anxiety and panic, and the mood that had been suppressed suddenly brightened a lot.
She cared about him after all.
This realization made the emperor feel very good.
So when I spoke again, my tone was much gentler.
"Originally, I had the idea of becoming a monk because I didn't have any thoughts, if you are willing to go back to the palace with me, I can consider giving up this idea."
Concubine Lan frowned when she heard this, and she hesitated.
In her selfish heart, Concubine Lan had to admit that she was moved by the emperor's words.
She loves the emperor deeply, and this love has long been carved into the bone marrow over the years.
It can be said that even if the emperor wants her life, she can pay without hesitation.
But she was not carried away by this sudden happiness.
