Pei Yuanhao lowered his head, although I could see his face, but I felt as if I couldn't see his expression at all, or no one could see his expression clearly at this moment, whether it was anger or sadness, I couldn't tell the difference.

I could only see his eyes, the deep pool that was so dark that it seemed that even the light could not shine into it, condensed into ice in an instant, and he looked at Nangong Lizhu kneeling in front of him coldly, without saying a word, and there were so many military officials and harem concubines in the main hall, he couldn't even hear a breath, only the wind outside, as if it was about to overturn the whole world and the world.

At such an extremely quiet and chaotic time, Pei Yuanhao spoke, and his voice was no longer warm: "Zhu'er, I want you to speak." ”

“……”

"You say."

“……”

"Even if you say it's not."

“……”

"You say."

My palms were covered in cold sweat, and the more I heard his question, the faster my heart beat as if it was about to burst from my chest, and my ears hurt with a bang.

I don't know how long it took, I heard Nangong Lizhu slowly leaning down and kowtowing, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the concubine is guilty." ”

The concubine was convicted.

These four words were like a heavy blow, knocking Pei Yuanhao into the abyss of the ground all at once, I just felt that the heat on his body was gone, and he looked straight at Nangong Lizhu, and his voice trembled slightly: "Is it really you?" ”

“……”

"It's really you, hurting the second prince?"

“……”

"Is it really you, my son who tortures me like this?"

“……”

After asking questions sentence by sentence, but never got her answer, he slowly stood up with the dragon chair, Chang Qing subconsciously walked over and wanted to help him, I seemed to feel as if he was about to collapse, but the tall figure still stood steadily, just that kind of stability, like a palace, a stone monument, any kind of cold and lifeless thing, is standing like this.

He said word by word: "Sue sù me, why? ”

"......" Nangong Lizhu was silent for a moment, still lying on the ground deeply: "The concubine is guilty." ”

"Sue sù me!"

"The concubine is guilty."

"Sue sù me!"

"Concubine...... Can't say. ”

When Pei Yuanhao heard this, a look of shock appeared on his face, and my heartbeat also suddenly, and I saw that his back straightened slightly, and his voice became more and more cold and hard: "Say!" ”

Nangong Lizhu was silent for a long time, so silent that even the wind became more and more violent, she finally raised her head slowly, lowered her eyes and reddened slightly, and said: "The concubine - before the concubine, she did beat the second prince, and the concubine was - she was angry." ”

"Can't be angry?" Pei Yuanhao narrowed his eyes slightly: "Because of that sinner woman?" ”

"......" she paused again, not speaking.

A glimmer of light flashed in Pei Yuanhao's eyes: "I want you to say it!" ”

Nangong Lizhu's eyes swelled with a streamer, as if it was in severe pain, the whole person was trembling, and choked up: "Actually, the concubine has always wanted to forget about this matter, but--But the queen asked the concubine to take care of the second prince, and when the concubine saw this child, she remembered again, those things, the concubine can't forget, but the concubine can't find the culprit to take revenge." The concubine was really angry, so she hit the second prince a few times. ”

"The culprit?!" Pei Yuanhao's eyes widened suddenly: "Who are you talking about?" ”

I was cold.

Suddenly, I suddenly understood where the uneasiness had come from.

Nangong Lizhu had already raised her head, and her tearful eyes slowly moved from Pei Yuanhao's body to mine, and everyone's eyes followed her, only to hear her choke and say: "Yue Qingying, this palace also wants to ask you, you are so heartbroken that even the second prince was beaten, and you want to uphold justice for him." The unborn child of this palace, is he guilty? He's so innocent, what kind of vicious heart did you have when you killed him!? ”

As if a thunderbolt was slashing from the top of his head, Pei Yuanhao's whole body froze, and he turned to look at me suddenly.

I stood there dumbfounded, unresponsive.

She- how would she know?

How would she know that I had caused her to have a miscarriage?

Could it be that

I subconsciously turned my head to look at Mingzhu, she had already been frightened by this accident and her face was pale, and her soul was out of her body, and when I looked at her, her eyes also shrunk to me.

As soon as I met my gaze, I immediately screamed in my heart - oh no.

It was too late, Mingzhu was already trembling and shaking her head, and said to me with a frightened look: "No, no, it's not me, it's not what I said." ”

The people around were all taken aback.

Even Chang Qing's face changed, and she looked at me with wide eyes in disbelief.

Nangong Lizhu no longer concealed the hatred in her eyes at this moment, and in an instant, it pierced me like thousands of sharp needles, and the kind of cruel and profound hatred made me shudder.

And Mingzhu was still muttering: "I, it's really not what I said, I didn't sue others, I-"

Pei Yuanhao was already gritting his teeth: "Take it down!" ”

The palace maids and grandmothers on both sides of the hall came up immediately after a moment of apprehension, but they stood there a little at a loss, not knowing who the emperor wanted them to take away, or Chang Qing was the first to calm down, turned his head and said to Mingzhu: "Choosing a waiter, if you have anything to say, go down and think clearly, the emperor will come to ask." ”

As soon as he said this, those palace maids and grandmothers immediately came up and took Mingzhu away half-pulled and half-supported.

Looking at her dejected look, I turned around and saw that although Nangong Lizhu was still kneeling there, the wolf bèi helplessness on her face had completely disappeared, leaving only a sinister sneer, facing me.

She did it on purpose!

With the way of others, she actually used the method I just forced her to ask her, so easily let Mingzhu tell the truth.

I only felt an unspeakable suffocation, almost fainting, but no matter how black my eyes were, and how cold sweats broke out on my back, I still stood like this, accepting everyone's eyes.

Among these eyes, there was a very familiar one, but at this moment it looked at me like a stranger, I only felt a pain in my heart, and subconsciously raised my head and looked at the crowd of His Royal Highness.

He was standing there.

At this moment, Liu Qinghan's face was even paler than before, and after the anger faded, what was left was a blank strangeness and emptiness like a snowfield.

He seemed to be looking at a completely strange person, and even showed a hint of panic, as if no matter how he tried to identify and distinguish, the person in front of him was obviously familiar, but he couldn't recognize it at all.

Yes, he didn't know.

He never knew, or even thought that I would harm people, and he didn't dare to imagine that I would harm a woman who was pregnant with Liujia, but when the blame was pointed at me just now, I had no room to refute.

Perhaps, I am not what he thinks I am at all, but now, in his eyes, what am I like?

I shrunk and didn't dare to look at his eyes anymore, so I could only turn my head slowly, and when I looked at Pei Yuanhao's dark eyes, I saw the pale shadow, like a ghost-like self.

That's me, the most real Yue Qingying.

I am not a pure white and immaculate paper, nor am I a fairy painted on the paper, I am a person who came out of the darkest, as if from the depths of hell, and my hands have never only had the fragrance of fat powder, but have always had a strong smell of blood, even after so many years, it has not faded.

However, I haven't had time to let him know about this qiē.

I haven't had time to tell him my secret.

If I sue him, if I sue him for everything, maybe he will understand and will not look down on me, but now it is too late.

It's too late.

Thinking of this, I gently closed my eyes.

Pei Yuanhao had already walked in front of me, and the cold voice sounded in his ears: "It's really you?!" ”

I nodded hard, heavily, "Yes." ”

Indeed, it's me.

There is no way to deny it, and there is no room to deny it, that accident, although it was also unexpected by me, but indeed, it was manipulated by me.

"Why?"

Why?

At this moment, my mind, which had always been shrewd, became a little blurred.

Because I hate her? So you want to hurt her?

Because I hate her for giving me too much humiliation and pain in the first half of my life, or because she took away my son and separated me from my daughter?

No, it's neither.

Because my target is not her at all, but Shen Rou, and I want to harm Shen Rou as well.

And Nangong Lizhu was because she wanted to harm Chang Qing and went to the studio to find Chang Qing's handle, and was contaminated with the same fragrance as Xu Youling, so she let the crazy Yuwen attack her.

If that's the case...... I subconsciously glanced up, Chang Qing's face was pale, and he looked so helpless standing there for the first time, but one hand was still tightly caressing Xiao Nianshen's shoulder, protecting him hard under his wing.

I looked up again and looked at Liu Li, she once said that if Nangong Lizhu could no longer hold a grudge against Pei Nianyun, she could adopt this child.

Actually, what I want to see the most is the light cold of His Highness, but at this time, I don't dare to look at it.

I was afraid to see his disappointed eyes.

I can only use all my strength to control my voice and body, and I slowly knelt in front of Pei Yuanhao: "Weichen confesses." ”

I knelt in front of him like this, I couldn't see his expression, but I felt that the man in front of me seemed to have no body temperature.

And opposite me, Nangong Lizhu was still kneeling, and those eyes full of hatred finally no longer had any concealment, glaring at me like a knife.

In fact, her gaze has always been like this, and that outright hatred has never changed, but she has been suppressing and enduring it.

I finally understood.

This matter is not what Mingzhu said, she has always regarded me as her dependence, and the grasshopper on her rope, she also knows that Nangong Lizhu hates Shen Rou, and she doesn't dare to secretly communicate with her.

The only person who really said it was someone else who knew what it was all about.

Shen Rou.

I finally understood why Shen Rou was crazy.

Her madness was not the result of Nangong Lizhu's torture, but deliberately; After all, the Shen family had fallen at that time, even if Pei Yuanhao did not cure her crimes, her status would be difficult to protect, with Nangong Lizhu's status, it was easy to torture her, and torturing a sober person was far more relieving of hatred than torturing a madman.

It was because Nangong Lizhu knew the news from her mouth, and in order to paralyze me, she tortured Shen Rou to madness, so that I thought that this matter would be annihilated, and there would be no more fortifications.

That's how she is, she's always hiding her hatred.

No wonder these days, she has been so quiet, and she has not used any more means against me, not that she does not use it, but that she has endured it until today, crushing me in one fell swoop!

After all, I lost!

Raised his head and looked at Chang Qing with a solemn face, he was in a trance for a while, recalling that she had reminded me many times that my opponent was Nangong Lizhu, I listened, thinking that I was enough to pay attention to the meaning of this sentence, and I also thought that my means were enough to deal with her, but now I know the true meaning of Chang Qing's reminder of me.

Nangong Lizhu doesn't even need any means to deal with me.

As long as she sues Pei Yuanhao about this matter at the most appropriate and irreparable time, it will be enough to resist any means and any schemes of mine.

Because, she is Nangong Lizhu.

The favorite woman of the current emperor.

I slowly lowered my head, and an indescribable sense of powerlessness came over me, and the smooth floor reflected my pale cheeks and godless eyes, and this was how I had lost.

I really lost.

However, it's not a one-size-fits-all approach.

I raised my head and looked at Nangong Lizhu, the deep hatred in her eyes, in fact, I have always been familiar with it, that should be the look in my eyes every time I looked at Shen Rou, her pain was actually the same as mine. Regardless of the reasons I had, I was the one who caused the accident, and her child was indeed lost.

This is Skynet, negligent but not leaky.

What I do will be judged after all.

Thinking of this, I was no longer depressed, but I felt a little biting cold all over my body, and Pei Yuanhao kept his back to me, never turned his head to look at me, he slowly walked over and sat down on the edge of the table, that hand seemed to have been exerting force, grabbing the corner of the table, and when he sat down slowly, his body regained the calm and almost cold aura of the past.

That kind of calm made everyone feel uneasy, Nian Shense shrank his hand and held Chang Qing's hand, and whispered: "Queen Mother, Aunt Qing ...... her"

Chang Qing reached out and covered his mouth.

At this time, everyone knows that they should not open their mouths and should not insert them.

I myself was unbelievably calm, and I knelt on the floor straight, feeling the biting cold spread from my knees to my chest, and then accept my judgment in the cold.
