Chapter 101: Hug (Second Watch)
It was a rusty vermilion gate with silver and white nails on it, a full hundred and eighty nails, showing the majesty of this place. It also shows the sturdiness of this door.
Su Qingcheng's hand couldn't help but put it on the door and rubbed it twice.
If you say, this deep palace is a rich cage for women. Then the cold palace is more terrifying, lonely, and corrosive than the rest of the harem land.
Since the founding of the country, until the period of Emperor Ningping of the previous dynasty, it was all used to detain prisoners or abandoned concubines.
In the generation of Jianyong Emperor Shao Mingsheng, there was only one concubine who was imprisoned here, and even the name was unknown.
That person is the original owner of "Broken Fangzhai".
Su Qingcheng pushed open the gate vigorously, and then stepped into this territory, except for Shao Mingsheng, few people have set foot in the territory.
Almost as soon as she entered, a hand took hold of her slender neck, and before she could speak, the hand of the person who came was already strong.
It's Shao Mingsheng! It was clear that he wanted to kill her!
Su Chengcheng's heart actually didn't have the fear of being almost killed just now. In its place, there is courage tumbling in the heart.
Put all oneβs eggs in one basket!
From the moment she chose to live in "Broken Fangzhai", all she had left in her heart was that kind of desperate guts!
If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent!
If she can't win Shao Mingsheng's favor, why did she enter the palace?
She must be favored before she can let him attack Da Liang and let the whole country pay for her hundreds of lives!
Su Chengcheng completely put aside everything about Xiao Qingjue and Rong Songyao in her heart, and all she could think about at this time was the man in front of her who wanted to kill her!
Everything she wants, only he can give!
I don't know where the strength came from, she actually held Shao Mingsheng's hand! Push hard, and you'll break free!
"Your Majesty!"
She screamed hoarsely, and then slid down the door as she spoke.
She stroked her neck, and then looked up at Shao Mingsheng who was standing in front of her!
Shao Mingsheng never thought that the person who sneaked in would be a Su Chengcheng.
Over the years, the concubines who followed him here were not nothing, on the contrary, there was still a noble person he had favored for a while last year.
The noble man was too curious, and actually followed him here and entered here.
At that time, almost without hesitation, he strangled her to death, looking indifferently at her increasingly dim eyes.
It is also because of this that he will bring his guards, although there are only two of them, but he can also prevent people who are not long-sighted from breaking into this sacred place.
And this year, I didn't expect it to be her here - a woman he didn't know how to treat!
The purple palace dress on her body was gorgeous and exquisite, much better than the dance dress that night. It also sets off her delicate face and her complexion is better than snow!
Those flashing eyes made his heart even softer. In it, it seemed to be complaining why he wanted to hurt her!
He clenched his fists violently, and with one swing of his fist, it struck the wall next to the gate, leaving a noticeable indentation!
"Ahh
Su Qingcheng didn't know whether she was shocked or frightened, and the whole person was stunned on the spot, until the blood on Shao Mingsheng's fist fell drop by drop, and she stood up with the gate as if she had just woken up from a big dream.
The sound of old metal colliding from the gate made the silent air around it flow faster.
Shao Mingsheng turned around as if he was irritated, "Why did you come here?" Did you come with me? β
Su Qingcheng hurriedly grabbed the hem of Shao Mingsheng's clothes, and tears flowed out very naturally.
"Your Majesty, don't talk yet, let the concubine bandage your wounds first, you......'re bleeding," he said, couldn't help covering his mouth with his hands and cried.
Shao Mingsheng's body stiffened, and it wasn't until Su Qingcheng's crying became louder and louder that he turned around and looked at her.
Su Qingcheng tilted her head, she was tall, but standing in front of Shao Mingsheng, she still looked a little short.
Shao Mingsheng's eyes were a little dazed, and the woman in front of her who was crying seemed to overlap with the figure of someone in her memory, which made people guess and couldn't see clearly!
Su Chengcheng didn't notice that Shao Mingsheng was wrong, she raised Shao Mingsheng's hand in panic, and the top of her five fingers and the back of her hand were already covered with blood.
Su Qingcheng bit his lower lip and didn't let himself scream.
She used a handkerchief to scrub the dust off the wound, then bandaged him with the other.
"Your Majesty......" She raised her head, and before she could finish speaking, she was hugged by Shao Mingsheng.
"Don't speak, let me hug you and feel your presence." Shao Mingsheng buried his head in her neck and wrapped his hands tightly around her waist.
Su Qingcheng's hands hung in the air, frozen in mid-air, and for a while, there was only the sound of the wind blowing around. Even the chirping of cicadas was eliminated by the two of them, and for a while, the surrounding air became ambiguous, and the temperature slowly warmed up!
Su Chengcheng closed his eyes, and his whole person was surrounded by ambergris on his body. Hands slowly rested on his back, gently encircling him, one hand rhythmically, patting his back.
"Your Majesty, the concubine is here."
I don't know if it's because of her words or because of her movements, after Shao Mingsheng's body stiffened, he hugged her harder!
It wasn't until someone came that this warm interaction between the two ended.
"The minister is guilty, please punish Your Majesty!"
Shao Mingsheng let go of Su Qingcheng, looked at the two kneeling in front of him, and frowned, "What happened just now?"
Su Qingcheng's brows tightened slightly, and he saw the two kneeling people, dressed in silver iron shirts, full of murderous aura.
She could almost conclude that the person who had attacked her outside just now was one of them.
That feeling of imminent death, she would never be wrong!
One of them said: "If you go back to the emperor, just now there were two people who wanted to break into the cold palace, and the ministers chased them out, so they ......" said, looked up at Su Qingcheng, and bowed his head and said nothing.
Su Qingcheng was cold in his heart, and the feeling of dying just now appeared again. She couldn't help but lean closer to Shao Mingsheng.
At this time, the only thing she can rely on is the man next to her, after all, he is now her nominal husband!
"What about people? You didn't catch it? Shao Mingsheng felt the panic in Su Qingcheng's heart, and then held her hand.
"The subordinates are incompetent!"
Shao Mingsheng's eyes were shining with cold light, and he looked at the two kneeling on the ground: "You go back and ask for punishment!"
"Yes!"
The two did not beg for mercy, and left without saying a word, leaving Shao Mingsheng and Su Chengcheng.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew from inside the cold palace, making Su Qingcheng's back cold. This sudden gust of wind almost made Su Chengcheng scream!
"Why, I'm scared, I remember, on the way to the cold palace, it's even more scary than here!"
Shao Mingsheng smiled and whispered, the condensation in front of the guards just now had all disappeared, leaving only the familiar warmth of Su Tingcheng.
