At this moment, he was so close to me, and the hot breath was blowing on my face, but I had a feeling of chilling into the bone marrow, and the fingertips hanging in the sleeves on both sides were a little spasmodic.

It turned out that he was for this purpose.

Some of the cold faces were blown by his breath, and the skin felt slightly irritated, as if it was pricked by a lot of needles, although it didn't hurt, but it was a little numb, that feeling, it felt as if someone had slapped it hard.

At this time, I slowly calmed down.

I looked him in the eye and said, "Has His Majesty the Emperor ever seen a cold face?" ”

He was stunned.

Probably he wouldn't believe it at all, I would mention Qinghan so clearly in front of him, if it was in the past, when Liu Qinghan was still an official in the court, I wouldn't dare to do it; But now, he has stayed away from the capital, away from the court for which he paid almost a qiē, he is now in Xichuan, has his own power, and no one dares to act rashly against him.

So, now, in front of him, I can say his name clearly.

Pei Yuanhao's breathing sank suddenly.

I hooked the corners of my lips: "Although it is unsightly, I think that His Majesty the Emperor has seen a little bit." ”

“……”

"His Majesty the Emperor just asked me if I would like to go back to four years ago."

“……”

"Going back to four years ago means that I have to forget who gave me these four years."

“……”

"But I can't forget."

“……”

"I can't forget what price he paid in order to give me these four years, in order to give me the opportunity to give Miaoyan a mother's love."

I recalled that in the Wangjiang Pavilion, I saw those hideous and terrifying scars on the originally familiar and handsome face, and the rumors about this Lord Liu that were circulated by Yangzhou people - the face is as strong as a yaksha, and the heart is as kind as a bodhisattva. But I know that he was not like that, and that he had clear and bright eyes, a broad, clean forehead, and the gentlest smile I have ever encountered in my life, but they all became the price he paid.

If I go back to four years ago, who will he ask for those costs?

If one day, God has mercy, and I can meet him again, how can I face those gloomy eyes hidden under the mask?

I took a deep breath, looked directly at Pei Yuanhao, and said calmly: "It's impossible for me to turn back!" ”

Pei Yuanhao's face turned pale and cold for a moment, as if at this moment, the blood in his whole body was suddenly frozen.

The entire apse also became cold and solidified.

I don't know how long it took, the corners of his eyes were slightly red, and I could even clearly see that his eyes were bloodshot and slowly turning red, and his breath was blowing on his face, as sharp as a steel knife, and I almost thought that the next moment, I would have to go through the nightmares that I had experienced every time I annoyed him in the past, but this time, I was calm, and even looked at him with a little stubborn eyes, refusing to retreat in the slightest.

Then, he walked over to me.

Although my gaze was unwavering, it was impossible to hit his arms at this moment, I took a step back, but I was caught off guard, my back hit the door, and suddenly, the tall vermilion lacquer door made a clang.

This sound is actually not loud, but at this moment, it is like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and some of the bustling sounds outside are all quiet at this moment.

Someone exclaimed, "There are people in the temple! ”

"Who is it?"

"Is it to-Assassin?"

The people outside continued to speculate in horror, but they never heard Chang Qing's voice, instead, they could feel that she seemed to breathe a long sigh of relief.

I turned my head sideways, and through the narrow gap between the doors, I saw her slowly turn her head to look at it.

"Who's in the hall?"

Her voice, calm and soothing, with a hint of reverence that could be detected.

The people around were also some with eyes, and as soon as they heard Chang Qing say this, the guards who were originally nervous and even wanted to draw their swords immediately froze in place, but the expressions on everyone's faces were still quite nervous.

As soon as I saw this scene, my mood also tensed, and I subconsciously raised my head, but I saw Pei Yuanhao stretching out his hand and slamming the door panel behind me hard, and there was a loud bang, and the door shook, but I was shackled there by his hand, and I didn't dare to move lightly.

He slowly lowered his head, almost touching my cheek, but stopped again, looking me straight in the eye.

I looked at him too, without blinking.

Then, he said, "It's me." ”

The sound was not loud or small, but it was just right for everyone outside to hear.

As soon as they heard this voice, the people outside were all frightened, and immediately heard the sound of everyone kneeling, kowtowing to the ground one by one and not daring to speak, only Chang Qing could still speak, and said calmly: "It turns out that the emperor is resting here, and the concubines don't know, I hope the emperor will forgive the sin." ”

"Those who don't know are not guilty, the queen is flat."

"Your Majesty."

Knowing Suosuo's voice, Chang Qing slowly stood up, still hanging his head, standing outside the door without moving, and only said gently: "The concubine thought that the emperor was accompanying Princess Miaoyan in the palace to pray for blessings, but I didn't know that the emperor was here to rest." ”

"The method of praying for blessings of the national teacher is different, I don't need to be present, so I'm here for a leisurely walk," he said calmly, and added, "Why is the queen here?" ”

"I heard that someone stole the items in the palace out of the palace here, and gave them privately, and the concubines came to take a look."

"It turns out that the queen is here to handle the case."

"The emperor made fun of it, but the concubines didn't dare."

"So, did you catch it?"

"I've caught two of them now."

"Catch the traitor and catch the double, catch the thief and take the stolen goods."

"The stolen goods have been captured."

"Then, let me see what kind of treasure it is, worthy of such a big risk for them to steal from the palace."

"Yes."

As soon as the words fell, Pei Yuanhao stretched out his hand and slowly opened the door next to me.

At this moment, my heart was in my throat, I was afraid that this scene would be seen by people outside, but one of his hands was still firmly propped to the side, blocking the way I could walk away, and suddenly, my cold sweat was like pulp, and I looked at him with wide eyes.

He was unhurried, listening to Chang Qing's footsteps and slowly walked to the door.

However, he only opened the door a little.

Then, he reached out.

The people outside could only see one of his hands stretched out, and Chang Qing did not come in, but stood at the door, respectfully offering a hairpin to his hand.

He slowly retracted his hand, twisted the hairpin lightly with his fingertips, and slowly raised it in front of me, although the distance was too close at this time, and I didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore, and I didn't want to look at each other, but at this time, I couldn't help but look up, it was indeed the hairpin that Chang Qing handed over to Yang Yunhui, and Yang Yunhui handed me the hairpin before he died.

Originally, it should have been handed back to Yang Jinqiao, but at this moment, it was-

His eyes looked at my eyes through the hollow pattern on the golden hairpin, the corners of his mouth turned slightly, evoking a smile that seemed to be nothing, and said loudly: "It turned out to be this hairpin." ”

Chang Qing's voice raised slightly: "The emperor knows this?" ”

"Of course. This is when the Dongzhou War was in the beginning, someone specially left behind and asked someone to transfer it. ”

He said this ambiguously, who left behind did not say, and who entrusted it did not say, but Chang Qing already knew it, and at this time, he only grabbed the most important sentence to ask-

"To whom?"

As soon as I heard her ask this, my heart tightened slightly.

Holding his breath, he looked nervously at the man in front of him.

On Pei Yuanhao's face, the smile was slowly disappearing, and the contemplation in his eyes became heavier and heavier.

I could almost hear my own heartbeat and I could hear his.

After a while, he said, "Give it to the eldest lady of the Yang family." ”

Chang Qing immediately said: "But at the beginning, the lady Yang Jinqiao who died in Shangyang Palace? ”

"Exactly."

At this point, the two of them stopped.

If at this time, there is anyone who doesn't understand, it is really stupid.

The people outside didn't even smell their breath, but I could feel that everyone's eyes fell on one person.

At this time, Yang Jinqiao originally straightened his back and knelt there, slowly turned to the apse, knelt down gently, put his hands on the ground, and said slowly: "Concubine, meet the emperor." ”

……

Just this one sentence, like earth-shattering thunder, shook everyone.

I looked at the golden hairpin, raised my head again, and looked at Pei Yuanhao's eyes that flashed with light, and my heart was bitter and astringent for a while, and I couldn't tell what it tasted like.

Yang Jinqiao finally admitted his identity.

Moreover, not in her own home, not alone in front of Pei Yuanhao, but in front of Chang Qing and many palace people, she called herself a "concubine", and she had already admitted her identity as Mrs. Jin Qiao of Shangyang Palace before she cheated to death!

Pei Yuanhao also seemed to sigh lightly, and then his voice was as usual: "It turned out to be you." ”

"Yes."

Chang Qing said softly: "I didn't expect it to be Yang Jinqiao." Could it be that the emperor already knew? ”

"Yes," he said calmly, "I have already seen her at the Yang family's birthday banquet before, but she has experienced a lot of things, and she has just returned to the capital, so I asked her to go home first to reunite with her parents, and I did not immediately tell the queen; This kind of thing was originally given to her by me. ”

"It turned out to be the emperor's arrangement, and the things were returned to the original owner, but the concubines did this too much."

"No, the queen's eyes are like torches, and she is discerning, if there is no such carefulness, how can I rest assured that the harem will be handed over to the queen?"

"The emperor has a good reputation."

After saying this, Chang Qing said softly: "I didn't expect that it was rumored that Mrs. Jin Qiao was killed by the rebels, which is really regrettable, but I didn't expect that she was still in the world, which is really gratifying." ”

The drama is now clear.

I raised my head and looked at Pei Yuanhao with some nervousness.

How will he deal with this "resurrected" Mrs. Jin Qiao?

Just when I was nervous and the people outside held their breath, waiting for the emperor's final "verdict", Yang Jinqiao suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the concubine has something to say." ”
