CHAPTER XVI
readx;? The emperor was touched to the bottom of his heart by his words, and he couldn't hold the cold posture for a while, but suddenly remembered the ruthless means behind his pitiful appearance, and suddenly felt irritable, and didn't understand how he came to see him, and said: "You can feel Gugu's mind." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Then you can continue to guess when Lone will come. ”
Seeing that the emperor was leaving, he exclaimed excitedly, "Emperor!"
The emperor did not answer, but his steps stopped, waiting to hear what was going on.
Wu Chuan hurriedly settled his mind and quickly thought about what he should do. Suddenly, he remembered the folding fan, so he hurriedly took the fan from the bed and went around to the emperor, and regardless of whether the emperor was willing or not, he took the emperor's hand and stuffed the fan into the emperor's hand.
"Emperor, this, you handed it over to me that day, so that I could meet you in the future. There are some things that Chuan'er has never done, but he is swayed by the evidence, and he knows that he can't argue. Chuan'er doesn't expect the emperor to trust him completely, but just begs the emperor, for the sake of this fan, don't forget Chuan'er......"
Wu Chuan choked. The emperor glanced at the stuffed thing in his hand, and saw that it was the fan of the year, and his thoughts surged for a while, and the appearance of the child in his arms gradually became clear, but soon the picture was replaced by the scene of him holding the withered enchantress, his own dead child, he didn't want to stay long, and glanced at Wu Chuan lightly and left without saying a word.
The emperor's resolute back fell into Wuchuan's blue and faint eyes, and the tears of soybeans rolled out in an instant, and the fiery moment brought by the excitement was like being poured with cold water, from head to toe, which made Wuchuan tremble. If it weren't for this genuine sense of loss in his heart, he would have really suspected that he had just seen a phantom.
"The Emperor. Fuhua came in with a smiling face of hot tea and was about to offer it to the emperor, but as soon as the words fell, he saw Wu Chuan standing alone in the hall crying, and lowered his head crampedly for a while, and the afterglow swept wildly, "The emperor and queen...... Emperor, Emperor. ”
"What kind of emperor ......," he wiped his tears and took a breath, "go down." ”
The flashy words came to his lips, and he grunted back again, and withdrew with small broken steps.
Wu Chuan sat on the ground like a kite with a broken string, sobbing violently, as if he wanted to pour out all the tears he had held back for more than ten years. originally thought that as long as he entered the palace, he could become the treasure of the emperor's heart, but the substitute is a substitute after all, and his trust and forgiveness have always been only given to another person with his love.
He really wanted to see how the emperor would be relative to him after the madness returned, whether he would be as indifferent to himself as he was today, and whether it would make the madman's heart bleed. If that's the case, I'll feel much more relieved.
-----
Early in the morning, the madman got up and came to the street, because Qianxia was not good at showing his face in front of people, and the madman didn't want to stay in the Red Mansion all the time, so he took the initiative to ask Ying to buy some cloth and cotton to add a few cotton clothes to Yihang for the winter.
Although Qianxia didn't want him to be tired from running around, he saw that he was stubborn, so he had to let him go. Because he was too eye-catching, he didn't follow.
Walking on the noisy street alone in the morning light, looking at the stalls in front of the shops on both sides, the hot steam rose up to add a bit of haze to the whole street, and the pedestrians who came and went were also extraordinarily leisurely because it was early in the morning, and they occasionally met three or two acquaintances who greeted each other and went their separate ways. The madness looked at it pleasantly, as if he was one of them.
"Eh, freshly baked steamed buns. ”
With a shout in his ears, the madness couldn't help but tilt his head, and the moment the store opened the cage drawer, the steam that roared out came to his face, "It's so fragrant!"
The madman took two puffs of enjoyment, "Shopkeeper, bring me six." ”
The shopkeeper holding the cage fan the steam, and when he saw a pair of blue eyes looking at him with a smile in his eyes, he was stunned, "Hurt adults?"
The expression of madness and enjoyment froze on his face, obviously he had brought a forehead to cover the blue wound before going out, but it seemed that this person still recognized his eyes. He hurriedly said, "You recognize the wrong person...... I don't want steamed buns......"
"Eh!" the shopkeeper hurriedly ran around the stall to the injured maniac who was about to walk and pulled him down, and the madman looked at him in a panic, only to see him smile bitterly, "Hurt adults and slow." How many of you can have in the North? How could I admit it...... I'm going to tell you to leave empty-handed, and I don't know how I'm going to die one day...... Come, take as much food as you want, it's all mine, I'll please. ”
Crazy for a moment, "What did you say?"
The shopkeeper thought that the madness was not disgusted enough, so he hurriedly said: "Don't be angry, you will give you all this steamed bun today, you just have to take it." ”
"No......" the madman frowned, "Why?"
The shopkeeper was polite to him and bowed down hurriedly, "Why can this be! Who doesn't know that you are with the evil king now, how dare we ...... you?"
"Where did you hear that I was with the Third Prince?" interrupted him. He vaguely thought that he had exposed his whereabouts, but if even a merchant knew, then there was no reason for the emperor not to know...... For so long, he didn't think about coming to find himself, just afraid that he would not have a chance to see him again in this life...... It's just that what does he mean by "together"? The emperor doesn't think that I have been from a thousand times?
"Ah, I didn't listen, I didn't listen......" The shopkeeper was so frightened that he didn't know what to say, he thought that after all, this kind of thing was indeed a bit disgraceful, and maybe the injured adults didn't like to hear it, so he shook his head in a panic.
"If you don't say it, I'll call the emperor to ask you. Said the madman.
The shopkeeper was stunned, sweating like rain, "Hurt, hurt adults, grass people are worthless, where is the use of God's interrogation...... You don't care about villains, don't be like me. Oh...... Don't let the evil and the three princes come to me. ”
The madness frowned slightly, "What the hell are you talking about?"
The shopkeeper saw that the face of the madman was not good, and he didn't dare to speak arrogantly anymore. He only heard that the innocent minister had an affair with the evil monarch, but he hadn't seen it, and now the person concerned didn't know whether he was deliberately avoiding it or really didn't know, so he couldn't say anything.
In fact, ordinary people just use this rumor as a conversation after dinner, and how the royal people have nothing to do with them is actually irrelevant. But rather believe it or not, the shopkeeper was a little unsure, and although the eyes of the mad were gentle, they grabbed him for a long time, and he swallowed nervously.
"Huh?" said the madman again.
The shopkeeper cried with a sad face, "Don't force me anymore, don't you like to listen to all my nonsense." The whole of Kyoto-gun knows it! That's what I said. ”
The madness is even more foggy, and everyone in the whole of Beijing knows about it, what do you know, what did he do?
"Don't worry, I don't mean to blame you, I just want to know, what is the matter with your mouth......?
He didn't dare to think about it anymore and stared at the shopkeeper closely.
The shopkeeper sighed helplessly, "Why do you bother me with ...... hurt adults?"
"I've been crazy and admitted, and what I haven't done can't be left to nonsense. Said the madman gently but unequivocally.
The firm tone made the depressed shopkeeper couldn't help but look at the madness again, and it really didn't look like the villain of the emperor who took revenge with the third prince because of love and hatred as the rumors said.
"Alas. The shopkeeper stomped his foot and made up his mind, "Actually, it's nothing." It is the people of Jingjun who say that you and the emperor have a disagreement, and you and the three princes are a couple...... I just heard nonsense, don't blame me for hurting adults. Hey, I didn't want to tell you about ...... How could you do such a betrayal of the emperor, you are a harmless minister, if there is really ...... It must have been the evil king who forced you...... Hurt you—"
The madman couldn't hear what the shopkeeper was saying, and he couldn't stop for a moment, as if the eyes of everyone on the street were scraping his skin like knives, and he was covered in bruises. He couldn't wait to get out of here.
How could he and Chishita? He will never betray the emperor in his life...... Even though he didn't see each other again, he still made his heart palpitate for a while, and he faintly wanted to go back to the palace, wanting to give an explanation to the person who heard the rumors, telling him that he had never done it, that he had never betrayed him, and that he was never the only one in his heart. What's more, how can a thousand times force themselves!
Emperor......
The frenzied breathing was messy, and he quickly returned to the Red Chamber and locked himself in the room, and finally it was quiet, finally quiet......
He thought over and over again how others knew about him and Qianxia, maybe he had entered and exited the Red Mansion so that people could recognize him, but he was obviously so careful.
No, there is no need to hide it at all, I haven't done it at all.
But who will believe me? Will the emperor believe me? Will he believe me?
No, he won't believe me anymore. He saw me doing that...... He won't trust me anymore. In his heart, I must be an unfaithful and unrighteous concubine, and I am not worthy of being his wife.
"Cloud Maniac?"
Furiously looking up, he saw a dark shadow standing outside the lattice window, he recognized the owner of the shadow, but he did not want to speak.
Qianxia, what are you and him, why do you feel so uncomfortable at the thought of leaving him?
"Cloud Maniac, are you back?"
The ordinary greeting sound, but now it fell on the ears of the madman, but the taste changed, as if the voice peeked into the unknown place in his heart.
Do you really like a thousand times?
No, I can't.
He shook his head quickly, leaned against the collapse with his eyes closed, and kept recalling all the things about himself and the emperor. Even if you can't return to him in this life, you have to keep this feeling.
"Cloud madness, are you there? This king is coming in. ”
Frightened, "Don't!" He sat up straight, for fear that Senxia would be embarrassed if he came in so bluntly - he really didn't know how to face Chishita. How would he feel if he heard such rumors? It was really hateful for him to let two people who loved him become the talk of the storm for no reason.
"You're here. ”
Chishita's tone was not so surprised, it was calm. With his internal strength, of course, he can sense the existence of the madman, but he and the emotions of the madman know each other because of red tears, and he just doesn't want to confuse him.
The gentle voice was like a mother saying "It's okay" to a child who made a mistake, and it touched the soft spot in the heart of the madman.
He choked up, making his tone sound less fragile, and asked, "Am I bad?"
