Chapter 18 Each according to his ability
I really suspect that Duan Xuan came to scare me last night.
I didn't sleep all night last night, thinking over and over what Duan Xuan's words meant.
I remember that I used to see her in Concubine Li's dream that she was also so smart, and I didn't show too far from Concubine Li, could it be that I thought too much about it?
Si Qing said that as long as I don't change the ending, I can restore my own form, and I don't have to wear the skin of Concubine Li to live the rest of her life for her.
But how do I know if I'm going to change the ending?
I know that the ending of Duan Xuan and Concubine Li is regrettable after all, but now I don't know whether Duan Xuan hates the cold Concubine Li or the playful Concubine Li.
So I don't know what I'm going to do in front of Duan Xuan before he loses interest in me.
I thought about it before thinking that the queen knew Duan Xuan better, so I was going to meet the queen for a while.
This was probably the first time I had taken the initiative to go to the queen, so she was so excited to see me.
I sometimes feel like I'm a toy in her hands, everything I do is a show in her eyes, and no matter how big the stakes, she is sure to win.
When I walked into the Queen's Palace, she was drawing in her study, and her long hair was simply tied up with a thin red rope.
It was a picture of a paradise, and there was a girl with a thick ponytail washing clothes by the side of the stream, and I looked at the landscape of the paradise drawn by the queen, and I couldn't believe that she had drawn it.
"You like this kind of life?" I said as I stood behind her.
"Ah, why are you here?"
The queen was very happy when she saw me, and hurriedly put down the paintbrush in her hand, took my hand, and took me to the front hall to drink tea.
"Sister Li, why did you think of coming to me, is it because you are not used to living in this palace?"
"No, I just wanted to ask a few questions."
She paused and said with a smile: "What else do you and I want to talk about, do you ask for advice, if you have anything to say, just say it directly." ”
I looked at her and said, "You can obviously keep me away from Duan Xuan and make me never see him for the rest of my life, but you forced me to play this game with you and force me to stay by Duan Xuan's side, why?" ”
She quipped: "So you came to ask this, didn't I tell you, I want you to die for Duan Xuan, and let you leave Duan Xuan voluntarily." ”
Without a trace, I withdrew my hand from the palm of her hand.
"Are you so confident in your own judgment? Aren't you afraid that Duan Xuan will really fall in love with me? ”
She saw that I withdrew my hand, and she didn't say anything, but she held the teacup and gently floated the tea leaves in the cup with the tea lid, not in a hurry or slowly.
"Actually, I'm not a bad person, I don't want to hurt you, I can't do anything about your father's death, if my life can be chosen by myself, then I'd rather change my life with you, I'd rather live your life, just like the painting I painted, wearing coarse cloth clothes, braids, although life is not decent enough, but fortunately, free and unrestrained."
"Then why don't you live like that?"
She smiled: "Some people are born with a predestined fate. ”
She put down the teacup in her hand, took my hand again, and said.
"Your father died because of me, and I am ashamed of you, so I want you to get close to Duan Xuan, I let you see clearly that you and him are not suitable, let you see clearly that me and him are the most suitable pair in this world, I want you not to have illusions about him, I am helping you, you know?"
The queen's words sound absolutely ridiculous to me, and breaking up Duan Xuan and Shen Qianxun is helping her?
She and Duan Xuan are the most suitable pair in the world?
Why?
The queen's words seem to be bitter, but in my opinion, they are her own wishful thinking imposed on others.
I've never believed in fate, let alone what others say.
I pulled my hand out of the Queen's palm and put it on her hand instead, laughing.
"Whether you help me or not, we'll know later, then from today on, let's rely on our abilities."
The queen raised her eyebrows: "Willing to accompany"
