As soon as we looked up, we were already at the apse.

This hall is not the most majestic in the temple, on the contrary, it is a place to wash and rest between the emperor's prayers and sacrifices, so compared to the front of the hall and the hall, this hall gives people a much more relaxed feeling.

But, at this moment, it is not.

The door of the main hall in front of him was closed, and there were no guards around, but there was an invisible pressure, and although he was just standing at the door, he had a feeling of almost being crushed.

It dawned on me.

Xiao Fuzi was still standing in front of me, and he didn't have much expression on his face, just stretched out his hand respectfully and respectfully: "Madam, please." ”

I walked slowly up the steps to the closed doorway.

Although I have completely understood in my heart, and I know that there is no way back at this time, but if I really want to enter this hall and meet that person, from the bottom of my heart, I still refuse.

And just as I was standing in the doorway, unable to move, the door was opened from the inside.

Not surprisingly, I saw the tall, familiar figure appear in front of me, dressed in a bright yellow robe, and his hands were still holding the door frames on both sides, as if he was about to embrace something, and the feeling made me involuntarily take a step back.

Pei Yuanhao.

From the moment I first walked to this place, I already realized that what was waiting for me here would not be Chang Qing, nor would it be Wonderful Words, but him.

As soon as he saw me take a step back, there was a chill on his originally cold face, but he didn't say anything, just slowly put down his hands behind his back, and looked at me in silence.

A gentle footstep behind him went away, and it was Xiaofuzi who left.

Just now, I remembered that although Xiao Fuzi had been working in Jingren Palace before, now that he had put on the official uniform of the deputy commander of the Sixth Rank Eunuch, he was no longer under the control of Jingren Palace.

The current Xiaofuzi is the emperor's person.

This time, it was Chang Qing's arrangement to let me enter the Taimiao, but it was already Pei Yuanhao's gesture to bring me here, the palace maid who led us into the front hall was completely unfamiliar, and I was very concerned about her at the time, because if it was really Chang Qing who sent someone to pick me up, I was very familiar with the detainees around her, but I don't know why I would arrange a completely strange newcomer to come over, and there were so few words.

Now, of course, they all understand.

I raised my head, Pei Yuanhao was still standing at the door, his face was still as cold as the weather, and when he spoke, his voice was as cold as ice: "Don't come in?" ”

“……”

I was silent for a moment and walked slowly inside.

Now that I'm in front of him, it's futile to do anything, and besides, my purpose is, after all, a good word.

Walking into this hall, I felt that it was colder inside than outside, because unlike several other halls, there was no arrangement here, not even a heating stove, I couldn't help but shrink, and I was a little puzzled, since he would be here, there should be a eunuch to arrange it in advance, how could he let him stay in a cold place here.

I thought to myself, but I didn't realize that he had walked behind me.

"What, cold?"

My breath tightened, but it was still silent, and I shook my head.

However, the fingertips that were frozen and white could not deceive people, as soon as he looked down, he saw that my hands were clasped, the pale skin and the snow-white clothes were almost integrated, there was no difference, he looked at my cheeks again, and then said in a deep voice: "No one knew that I would come here, and the wonderful words were still in the main hall, and the mage cast spells and prayed for her, and everyone thought that I and the queen were there to accompany her." ”

He seemed to be explaining why it was so cold here, and there was no arrangement at all, but my attention was all on my daughter after hearing the name of the wonderful words. I suddenly looked up at him: "Miaoyan, how is she?" ”

"She's fine."

"Is her illness better?"

"After the mage prays, hopefully there will be improvement."

“……”

My look of surprise suddenly darkened.

Although Xue Muhua and Yao Lao had made it clear to me before that Miaoyan's illness was not so easy to cure, but after being separated for so long, I still hope that a miracle can happen, and I also hope that Pei Yuanhao has so many people around him that can give Miaoyan some turnaround, so when I heard him say this, the disappointment in my heart still arose.

I lowered my head slightly: "Really? ”

He was silent for a moment and said, "You want to see her, don't you?" ”

I nodded hurriedly.

He looked at me motionlessly, his eyes flickering: "But you don't want to see me?" ”

“……”

My breath tightened.

If I just regarded him as the father of Miaoyan, maybe I could still get along with him peacefully, but I cared too much about Miaoyan just now, and almost made me forget who I was facing, and once I met those cold eyes, some memories were resurrected in the depths of memory.

I lowered my head and didn't speak, but there were some answers, and there were no words to say, and they slowly flowed out in such a somewhat dull air.

I don't want to disobey him, but I am too familiar with each other to this day, and I think that annoying him and deceiving him may not have any different ends, perhaps, I am too familiar with the fate of simply annoying him, but I am not so afraid.

In such a tense atmosphere, I could feel his gaze burning on me, and even though the air around me was so cold, there was always a flame in his gaze, almost burning my skin.

I don't know how long it took me to hear him let out a long sigh.

Then he said, "But I want to see you." ”

“……”

"I've had a lot to say to you in this long time."

I thought about it for a while, and said softly: "Yangzhou has only been farewell for a few months, and I don't know what the emperor's majesty has ordered." ”

He looked at me: "I said after you left the capital. ”

“……”

"You know, how long?"

“……”

My heart tightened.

If no one else could fully understand the meaning of this sentence, I already knew exactly what he meant—he was going to erase me from the palace to where I am now, what has happened to me over the years, everything I have experienced.

If it is simply summed up as how many years have passed since I escaped from the palace and left the capital, then a qiē is not so important.

I looked at him in silence for a moment, then said softly, "Of course I know, it's been four years. ”

“……”

He was about to say something, but before he could speak, I said, "When I left the capital, Miao Yan was only six years old; But now, she's almost ten years old. ”

His eyes froze.

I looked at him and said calmly: "In four years, I can finally make up for the regret of leaving her when she was so young and not fulfilling the slightest responsibility of being a mother, so every day in the past four years, I remember it clearly, and I will not forget every memory." ”

His expression became complicated.

Every word I say can be completely reflected in him, but the difference is that even in the past four years, he still has not fully fulfilled his responsibilities as a father, even in Yangzhou, there was a short time together, but at that time, he didn't even dare to admit that he was his father.

He is not without regrets.

But as I said the last few words, his face slowly sank as I spoke.

He repeated slowly: "Every memory, you won't forget it lightly? ”

“……”

I didn't speak, just looked at him, but I felt that the apse, which was already very cold, was as cold as an ice cellar at the moment, and his body was constantly exuding cold, and even his evil breath was so overwhelming that people could hardly breathe.

After a while, he said coldly: "Do you want to sue sù朕, along with that person's memories, you won't forget jì?!" ”

“……”

My heart thumped.

He was talking about Pei Yuanxiu.

……

For some reason, when I suddenly thought of this person and remembered the memories about him, I already had a feeling of being in a different world.

I didn't deliberately forget him, if I want to say hate, I don't hate him, after all, from beginning to end, he was very protective of me, not let me be wronged, although, he didn't know what really made me wronged, but now when I suddenly mentioned him, I realized that I was so far away from him.

I almost returned to the original point of me and him - I was in the capital, and he was still in the far south of the Yangtze River.

Separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, clouds and mist, what kind of person he is, even when he was closest, I don't know, and now when I think about it, it is even more vague.

The only thing I remember is that when he was in the palace, every time he appeared in the Inner Hidden Pavilion, he looked quiet and indisputable.

I slowly lowered my eyelids.

Pei Yuanhao's face became more and more gloomy: "Sure enough, you haven't forgotten him." ”

“……”

I didn't speak, also because there was nothing to say at this time, and just as his breath was getting heavier and heavier, almost overwhelming the surrounding qiē, suddenly, in the distance, there was a sound of footsteps.

Originally, I thought it was a patrolling guard, but when I got closer, I realized that there didn't seem to be many people, only two or three at most, and when I walked to the back of the main hall, I stopped.

I glanced at him, but we didn't speak.

Today is the emperor came to the temple to pray for the princess Miaoyan, the temple is different from the past, the guard is more strict, if it wasn't for Xiaofuzi to bring me here, I wouldn't have come to this remote apse, but now, the footsteps we hear are obviously not those patrolling teams, let alone the people around the emperor.
