Chapter Ninety-Six: The Cold Moon and the Cold Dew (2)
Su Mi's face changed.
Only then did Qi Hao notice Su Mi's expression, and his words suddenly froze.
The two fell into silence, and after half a sound, Su Mi opened her mouth and asked, "This time it was my rumors that killed her, don't you blame me?" ”
"She chose to die by herself," Qi Hao sighed, "If she chose to take the opportunity to leave the palace at that time, I could still help her." ”
Su Mi nodded, since she already knew that Qi Hao was not the kind of prince who seemed to be idle and wealthy on the outside, she naturally understood that he must have his own power in his hands.
Once the Wang family arranges Concubine Miaoyi out of the palace, according to Qi Hao's forces, they should be able to secretly rescue her and leave this palace from now on. However, if she is really out of this court, where can she go? She suddenly remembered what Miaoyi had said to her, "...... I have only lived in this palace for more than ten years, but I have exhausted the days of my life......."
Concubine Miaoyi really wanted to find death, and Su Mi was gloomy for a while.
She remembered Miaoyi's sad and desperate expression when she said this, and her old and haggard appearance that was completely out of her age...... With white hair and red face, the short ten years of harem life in this deep palace have exhausted the time of her life and buried the happiness of her life. Her family has also passed away, who else in this world will remember her and remember her? Only the dark palace room in front of them was left, which became the last hanging of the two.
In this empty palace room, the two sat side by side on the railing that had been burned beyond recognition, and under the cold moonlight, a gust of wind blew, and there was a faint sound of petals that had been snapped and fallen by the wind. The night clouds are thick, and most of the stars in the sky are covered, but the hook of the bright moon is still slender and elegant, the spring cold and dew are clear, and there is a faint winding and tactful Yan Song Yaoqin from the side of the blue wave pool.
Su Mi turned his head and looked at the person beside him, he was lowering his head, he couldn't see the look on his face clearly, only saw the silhouette immersed in the shadows with a peaceful sadness.
Su Mi suddenly felt a sense of wonder, the two had only talked twice.
Last time, it was still-for-tat, planning and calculating each other's gains and losses, but this time it became gentle and gentle, remembering the same person in the same place.
"You're coming here today, isn't there a feast going on over there?" After a moment of silence, Qi Hao asked.
"I'm a little upset, I don't want to look at those faces anymore." Su Mi said casually, unconsciously saying the words in his heart.
"There's trouble, isn't it?" Qi Hao chuckled, his voice had returned to his daily brightness, "If it wasn't for being robbed of the limelight, the favored Lian Jieyu wouldn't have backed down, right?" ”
"It's just a flirtatious little girl, it's not a problem." Su Mi sneered.
"Don't be too careless," Qi Hao said in a sigh tone: "In this court, you can never imagine how deep and dark it is. ”
Su Mi suddenly thought that the man in front of him had lived here for nearly twenty years, although he was just an unfavored prince, but as a bystander, he might have seen the darkness and strife of this court more deeply than others.
She didn't speak, she didn't want to think about these dirty and dirty things designed for favor now, she just felt that just thinking about it was also living up to the elegant moonlight in front of her. She looked up and looked at the bright moon above her, shining brightly, cold and white.
"The emperor's biological mother is not the queen mother's secret, I guess you also know it, right?" Qi Hao suddenly asked.
Su Mi was stunned, nodded, and asked, "His biological mother is the Shen Luyi of Liang Guo back then." ”
"Yes, didn't Miaoyi tell you?"
"She was interrupted before she could finish speaking, but I guessed."
"Shen Luyi doesn't know whether it should be considered lucky or pitiful." Qi Hao said slowly: "She really didn't die as the world knows, in fact, she was only seriously injured, and she was later treated by the imperial doctor of the Great Qi. ”
"Of course she is pitiful, forced to serve her enemies who ruined her family and country." Su Mi laughed mockingly.
"She lost her memory," Qi Hao interrupted her and said: "She was seriously injured in the head, and after she was rescued, her mind was greatly damaged, and she didn't remember anything before, so the first emperor brought her back and placed her in the Duyue Palace, and deceived her into saying that she was just a show girl who entered the palace in an ordinary draft, and all the people in the family were dead, and even the roster and family history were all compiled clearly. ”
Su Mi didn't know what to say, she couldn't judge whether the woman was lucky or pitiful in such an encounter, maybe this kind of rhetoric couldn't directly summarize her bizarre ups and downs.
"Actually, at that time, Shen Luyi was already dead, and only an ordinary concubine of the Qi State Palace remained, accepting the favor of Emperor Qi Wu." Su Mi said.
Qi Hao's thin lips raised a sarcastic arc: "It's just that no matter how beautiful such a stupid and sick woman is, she is destined to last long in this palace, and the first emperor's popularity in her is only less than a year's work, and when she gives birth to a child, the first emperor already has other beautiful flowers and new beauties." ”
"And then?" Su Mi asked with a little reluctance.
"And then she died silently." Qi Hao's cold tone told the bleak ending of this legendary woman.
"Is it the Queen Mother's hand?" Su Mi asked.
"I don't know," Qi Hao said: "No one knows anymore, no one will care about paying attention to a woman who has lost her favor and has a blank background." He raised his head and looked at the moonlight, and he still remembered the moment of amazement and admiration he felt when he first saw the woman. It was a beauty that should not exist in the world, which he would never forget, and for the first time at the age of five, he understood the meaning of the word beautiful so accurately and directly.
It's just that...... That kind of beauty was tarnished by too much worldliness, and finally disappeared. Therefore, he is particularly disgusted with his father, whether it is Miaoyi or Shen Luyi, or his mother, he is not worthy of such a woman at all, but because he is the emperor of Daqi, he can sit on three thousand beauties in a grand manner.
Shen Luyi had such a glorious and stunning name, but in the end, it was such an ordinary and lonely exit.
Listening to the final ending of this legendary woman, Su Mi didn't know what kind of emotion she should have. She turned her head slightly sideways and looked at Qi Hao's side face, the facial features were deep and clear, but her expression was as hazy and obscure as moonlight.
This person is really very contradictory, she suddenly thought.
The quiet silence echoed between the two, and no one wanted to speak again, as if as soon as they spoke, they would break such a beautiful moonlight and such a beautiful atmosphere.
At this moment, a hurried call came, "Niangniang, Niangniang,"
Su Mi looked up at the door, and it was Miqing's voice.
Suddenly, the shouting stopped abruptly, and Mi Qing, who had just run in, looked at the two people in front of him in surprise,
Su Mi's expression had returned to her usual coldness, and she stood up and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”
"It's the night banquet over there in the Lingxi Pavilion that has ended, and the emperor has summoned the lady to sleep." Mi Qing replied.
A trace of disgust flashed in Su Mi's eyes, and she suddenly didn't dare to look back at Qi Hao's face, she responded lightly and said, "I know, let's go back." ”
Mi Qing hurriedly stepped forward to hold Su Mi's hand, and the two walked outside in the night.
Qi Hao didn't say anything, and stood quietly behind watching the two of them go away.
Approaching the door, Mi Qing suddenly couldn't help but glance back, the figure of that person was already blurred under the moonlight, and he couldn't see his expression clearly, but ...... Mi Qing thought that at first glance just now, sitting with Niangniang was really indescribably harmonious, and the Biren mentioned in the book was like this......
