Article 595
He held her wrist tightly, his eyes were cold and cruel, staring at her face, gathering all the pain overflowing in his chest in his hand, until her eyes showed panic and fear, and kept begging him, calling: "Your Majesty"
Her expression was pitiful, and the sparkle of pleading eyes seemed to make him stop holding her accountable for what she had done the next moment because of his soft-heartedness, but she would never know that she was in pain, and he was more painful than her. All along, he has tried all kinds of ways, whether it is to pet her or treat her like this, there is only one result he wants, and that is to let her stay by his side obediently
Her tears fell, and the long eyelashes of incitement made his heart tear and hurt, but when he thought she had learned to be obedient, she actually said with stubbornness: "If the emperor is angry because of the concubine's trespassing into the 'imperial study', the concubine is willing to be punished, so it hurts."
Her words angered him again, and the trace of pity that rose in his heart turned into ashes, he held her wrist fiercely, and said angrily: "Concubine Ai also knows what pain is" The pain has always been borne by him alone, this heart-rending feeling is impossible for her to experience, and when she closes her eyes, the pain in her heart is even worse. He suddenly let go of her chin, held her fingers, interlocked with her ten fingers, and said with hatred: "Ten fingers even heartache" Qingyi, he hurt his heart
Her face was pale, tears kept falling, and she even wanted to cry without tears, closing her eyes as if she had given up the struggle in despair, and let him torture her. His heart shook when he looked at her sudden despair, and then he looked down at her wrist, which he had ravaged by him, and it was already purple. Hand, let go suddenly, he knew that his hand was very heavy, but he just wanted to teach her a lesson, he never wanted to hurt her, but he was out of control to this extent
The heaving of his chest, accompanied by heavy breathing, clenched his fists, and looked at the red marks on her fingers and the bruises on her wrists in disbelief, not knowing whether to be angry with her or at himself. He turned and walked to the window, stretched out his hand and slammed the window open, facing the cold rain and cold wind blowing outside, his clenched fist slowly loosened, but it was tighter
"Am I" he spoke, but it was as if he was blocked by something, he couldn't speak, was he too demanding, was he too anxious, maybe she still needed time, needed time to accept him slowly but he had waited too long, he was afraid to wait until the end, what he was waiting for was not her complete acceptance of herself, but that she had exposed all his plans, if so, then in the end, they
When he closed his eyes, he didn't have the courage to think about it anymore, but he still didn't know what to do. So, he could only take a deep breath, clenched his palms into fists again, and said in a depressed voice: "Rest, I will accompany you for a while", he said, he walked to the bed, and did not care whether she wanted to, and lay down with her body in his arms, but he did not even have the courage to look at her
*·
On this day, he was destined to be unable to sleep, and after the man in his arms had fallen asleep, he got out of bed with a heart full of confusion, and closed his eyes, unwilling to look at her sleeping face that fascinated him, and he was reluctant to leave her, but what about her, and perhaps after today, there was nothing but fear
But that's okay, he leaned on the edge of the bed weakly, looking at the begonia flowers flying into the room outside the window, so that at least she could leave a lesson in her heart, at least she would have reservations about helping Ruyue in the future, maybe she would be more towards herself, at least he closed his eyes again, in fact, he couldn't even convince himself
Got up, walked lightly to the window, looked up at the light rain in the sky, squatted down, looked at the pink remnants on the ground, pronounced her name in his mouth, reached out and picked up the remnants of the flowers piece by piece, and pieced together her name on the cold and damp ground
Begonia flowers, his mother's favorite flowers, she said, she was born in March Begonia flowers bloom. But she didn't know that even her fate was the same as this chaotic flying begonia flower, withering with the wind when it was gorgeous
His heart trembled in the cold wind, and he got up, but he inadvertently saw the broken white hosta scattered in the corner of the stone pillar. He remembered that when he first saw her, there was only one peony and white hosta on her bun that he had given her, and she had never worn any of the other luxurious ornaments
His eyes glanced unnaturally at the sleeping man on the bed, and he wanted to come up to her and say something, but he didn't even have the courage to approach her. He knew that once he got close to her, he would never be reluctant to leave. She is like a poison specially formulated for him, making him addicted, making him sink, and letting him be slowly killed in the entanglement of love and hate
The rain stopped, the red sun of the first clouds and mist set weakly in the west, in the "Palace of Eternal Life", he sat on the chair, staring at the delicate peony white hosta in his hand in a lost mind, and his fingers gently caressed its finely carved lines. This was the only reward she asked for from her father when her mother was canonized as a nobleman. It is said that it was carved by Taizu himself, but the Yiren who wanted to give it to the people of Yi had passed away with the wind when the hairpin was carved
Perhaps, because it was the only relic of the concubine, or maybe it was because it was about "the man", so he left it. It's just that after the death of his mother, this hairpin was left lonely by him in the box next to the bookcase for decades. He originally thought that he would never open this box again in his life. Sighing slightly, he closed his eyes and held the hairpin in his hand, today, why did he turn it out, and was it because of her
Outside the dormitory, Qin An walked in in small steps, and when he saw that he looked extremely tired, he whispered: "Your Majesty, the box you wanted, the slave brought it" As he spoke, he handed him a brocade box carved with roses and opened it carefully
He opened his eyes, looked at the small white ivory phoenix tail comb in the brocade box with a little tiredness, reached out to pick it up, and looked at it in front of him. Qin An looked at him and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, you have kept this comb in the book pavilion for three years, and today it is"
He glanced at him, held the comb in his hand, then put the hosta into the brocade box, picked up a sharp dagger, and began to carve it slowly. This comb was carved by him three years ago, when it had no purpose, it was just a whim. Because he had been by Ruyue's side at that time, in the whole plan, that time was the most leisurely time, because he had nothing to do, he wanted to carve something. Later, because the time was ripe, he was busy preparing to eliminate the Mu clan, so he discarded the half-carved phoenix shape in a brocade box and placed it next to the bookcase at will. And this release is actually three years
The sharp knife is carefully carved on the phoenix's tail, clearly carving every line. Give it to her after carving, he thought, anyway, it has been idle for so many years, but when he stopped the movement of his hand and stroked the clear lines on it, he couldn't help but be a little irritable, why did he think of her every time. When he carved the comb, he never imagined that one day he would give it to a woman
chuckled, but there was a hint of bitterness at the corners of his mouth. At the beginning, how could he have expected that three years later, he would be sad for a woman and a burst of unspeakable bitterness, he went down the knife again, carved carefully, and then after carving, put it into the brocade box in Qin An's hand with the hosta, put down the dagger, closed his eyes, and said: "Send it to Concubine De"
Qin An was stunned, looked at the box in his hand in a daze, and said a little hesitantly: "Your Majesty, do you want to send this hairpin too?" He opened his eyes slightly, waved his hand lightly, signaling him to go quickly, while he propped up his forehead and twisted his sword eyebrows irritably
At dusk, Zhao Chuan, who was beside the Queen Mother, hurriedly came to report that the Queen Mother had set up a banquet in the "Chongyang Palace" tonight, saying that it was to comfort Ouyang Hongyu. After hearing this, he couldn't help but tighten his sword eyebrows irritably. Ouyang Hongyu has always known the general situation, but this time it was a plan that could not be made and another plan was born, which made his heart bored for no reason. He never liked to play this game of hide and seek with women
He supported his forehead, put down the Zhu Pi in his hand, raised his eyes and glanced at Zhao Chuan, who was kneeling on the ground, Bai Banban's fingers tapped the imperial case a few times, and then stretched out his hand and waved it, signaling him to retreat, and then said lazily: "I will go at dinner"
Zhao Chuan, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only respond, and then withdrew from the hall. But as soon as he left, Qin An walked in in a hurry, and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, Hua Qiong came to report just now, saying that the concubine Niangniang has been restless these days, standing outside the palace all night looking at the 'Ningxue Palace', and has been embroidering silk handkerchiefs, and his body is weaker than a few days ago", he twisted his eyebrows and waited for Qin An to continue, but Qin An paused for a long time before he said again: "Your Majesty, you haven't visited your concubine Niangniang for several months, and it's raining again today, if Niangniang still stays outside the house all night, The slave is afraid that the mother's illness will be worse."
Taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes, and irritability rose in his heart even more. His heart had been stirred by Qingyi and couldn't settle down, but Ouyang Hongyu and Ruyue still bothered him. Seeing that he didn't speak, Qin An whispered unconsciously and worriedly: "Your Majesty, are you staying in the 'Chongyang Palace' tonight?" ”
opened his eyes, got up with a little impatience, strode to the window, and when the cold wind and drizzle blew on his silk, he clenched his fists, and then said coldly: "You go to the 'Ningxue Palace' now to send a message to Concubine De, and I will stay with Ouyang Chongrong tonight, let her pay attention to her body and rest early" and then thought about it, knowing that it was impossible, but still added a sentence self-deprecatingly, and said: "Tonight, let her not wait for me"
Qin An nodded a little unnaturally, and then said softly: "The slave obeys, the slave will go to pass the word", and as he spoke, he cautiously withdrew from the main hall
During dinner, Qin An entered the palace again, but he did not invite him to the 'Chongyang Palace', but Ouyang Chi asked to see him, he twisted his sword eyebrows again, but listened to Qin An say: "Your Majesty, it seems that Prime Minister Ouyang must have heard something, otherwise why would he come to ask for a meeting overnight when the emperor decided to stay in the 'Chongyang Palace' overnight?" ”
He was slightly stunned, but then understood what Tai'an meant, his thin lips couldn't help but smile, he reached out and played with the white jade plate finger on his thumb, and said coldly: "I didn't expect my father to really know my heart", said, glanced at Tai'an, who was a little stunned, and chuckled: "In half an hour, you go to the 'Chongyang Palace' to tell Ouyang Chongrong, just say that the father asks to see me, and is now in the imperial study, tonight, I won't go to her."
Tai'an was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The slave only knows, and asks the emperor to move the 'imperial study'." He nodded, got up and stepped out of the hall.
Ouyang Chi is a cunning old fox, he is too good at all soldiers, but he is not good at using soldiers, just like a game of chess has just begun, he has begun to screen the good and bad, but he often loses completely because he abandons the child too quickly. Just like Ouyang Hongyu's chess piece, he knew that although Ouyang Hongyu was more than intelligent, her appearance was mediocre, so he gave her up early. But he didn't ask if this piece would be more tempting to the enemy than the bet he had pressed before
He didn't care, when Qingyi didn't appear, he once thought that Ouyang Hongyu was the only woman in the world who was worthy of standing by his side, and he also thought that if he could really wipe out the Ouyang clan in one fell swoop, then Ouyang Hongyu would definitely be able to take the throne on behalf of his sister. After all, with her intelligence and sincerity to herself, even if she has no feelings for her at all, she will take care of the harem so that he has no worries
Thinking of this, he couldn't help sneering in his heart, but he got into the chariot and drove towards the 'imperial study'
*~!·#¥ up her. In the corridor not far away, the sound of gongs and drums rang out, and there were three watches in real time
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has already left the 'Xuanwu Gate', Hua Qiong reported that the queen changed into civilian clothes and was sent out of the palace gate, and only returned to the 'Fengqi Palace' before half a pillar of incense. It seems that the previous news was that the queen sent someone to leak it" Tai'an held the bright yellow cloak in his hand, said unhurriedly, and then put the cloak on his shoulder, and said, "Your Majesty, it's late at night, go back to the palace to rest"
Rest, his eyes dimmed, rest, where to rest? Her own 'Palace of Eternal Life' or her 'Snow Palace'?
He closed his eyes, sighed lightly, and said with his hand: "You went to the 'Ningxue Palace' today, what did Concubine De say?" He always has a glimmer of hope for her, and he always has expectations for his unclear relationship, but he doesn't know what he is expecting
Tai'an glanced at him nervously, then lowered his head, and said cautiously: "Back to the emperor, Concubine De Niangniang didn't say anything"
Bang - he punched the royal case, causing Taian to take two steps back. He opened his eyes, with a throbbing pain in his heart, stared out of the window with cold eyes, pursed his thin lips, clenched his palms into a fist, and said, "You follow the chariot back to the 'Heart Palace'", after speaking, he jumped out of the window and threw himself into the dark night.
After walking through the chaotic begonia flower forest, with the cold dew wetting the dragon robe, his footsteps suddenly froze, and across several gardens, he narrowed his eyes and stared at the woman standing in front of the window
The light rain in the sky was intermittent, he walked forward step by step, his eyes staring at his quiet and contemplative face, almost without thinking, he thought that she must be thinking about Ruyue, thinking about how to help Ruyue gain a foothold in this deep palace, thinking about how to get Ruyue out of the cold palace, thinking about how to push Ruyue back into his arms Thinking of this, he actually felt a little suffocated, clenched his fists, and strode in her direction
The slightest cold wind blew the length of her temples, and with the flickering candle flame on her back, she couldn't see what kind of emotions were hidden in those clear but always sad eyes, he approached her, smelled the cold fragrance in the air, looked at her sad eyes, and then when she seemed to be aware, he turned the window and hugged her
Her body was stiff, her eyes were full of astonishment and fright, her hands were tightly pressed against his chest, and after a while, she called him in a panic: "Your Majesty"
"Well," he replied, and then slowly let go of her body so that she could look up at him, and kissed her on the lips as she lifted her in confusion
