Pei Yuanhao still twisted the golden hairpin in his fingertips, his eyes flickered, and he said unhurriedly: "Say it." ”

I can feel the surging in Yang Jinqiao's heart at this moment, I am afraid that it is the turbulent waves, although she tried her best to suppress herself, but when she spoke, her voice was still a little trembling: "Before the emperor ascended the throne, the capital was in turmoil, fortunately the emperor blessed her, and the concubine had no worries, but she had been adrift. Over the years, I did not intend to expire the emperor, but there were many unspeakable hidden, unfinished things, and now I have to return to the capital, and I have to get the emperor's mercy, I can reunite with my parents, and I will be under my knees for a few days. ”

“……”

"These days, the concubine has not returned to the palace, not because of her heart, but because there is one more thing that has not been completed. Now, I also hope that the emperor will have mercy. ”

"Oh? What is it that makes you so relieved? ”

"It's my sister's marriage."

……！

As soon as she said this, my heart jumped and I raised my head to look at Pei Yuanhao.

His eyes flickered.

After a while, he said slowly: "Jin Yao? ”

"Yes."

"She, has she decided to get married?"

"Yes, in fact, my father has already made an agreement with Lord Wu, the head of the household, to marry his sister-in-law. It's just that these days, because of my father's 60th birthday, he and his concubine returned to the capital, and one by one, they postponed the marriage again and again. Now, the younger sister is also old, if it is delayed any longer, it will be me who will be the sister, and I will delay her-"

She didn't finish, not that she couldn't finish speaking, but when she said this, her voice was already choked.

My tears also fell from my eyes.

After all, she made a choice.

In fact, at the beginning, the meeting between me and Chang Qing in the Yang Mansion had already presupposed today's result, Pei Yuanhao took away a few of the Yang family's business, so he naturally wanted to make some representations to the Yang family, and including their daughter in the harem was the most obvious statement, at that time, of course, Yang Jinyao could only be seen, but since Yang Jinqiao reappeared in everyone's field of vision, this choice is not the only one.

It's just that it depends on how she chooses.

If she still chooses to grieve alone and remember the power of her life, then it must be Yang Jinyao who enters the palace; However, if Yang Jinyao wants to have his own happiness, then Yang Jinqiao must give up this qiē and enter the palace.

At that time, I asked her a sentence that I didn't finish, that is, I just wanted to ask her if she was willing to give up herself for the sake of her sister.

Now, I see that she has made a choice, she chooses to let herself return to Pei Yuanhao's harem, to face the treacherous battles and life in the future, and exchange for the happiness of Yang Jinyao's freedom.

When I saw this, I burst into tears.

Pei Yuanhao's eyes slowly sank, and after a while, he said slowly: "It turns out that it is Wu Qing's family." ”

"Yes."

"Queen."

Chang Qing hurriedly replied, "The concubine is here." ”

"Wu Shangshu is a senior apprentice of the Taishi, does the queen know about this matter?"

"This matter, the concubine is not very clear, but I heard from my father a while ago that Yanqiu is the official and the scholar, and he is not young, there should be someone to take care of the housework for him, so that he can serve the court and the emperor wholeheartedly."

Pei Yuanhao chuckled: "Yes, speaking of which, Wu Qing's family is not young, but he is still alone, but it delays him." ”

“……”

"Well, tomorrow, I will give them a marriage."

As soon as he finished saying this, he heard Chang Qing outside fall to the ground with a thud, and almost knelt down with Yang Jinqiao: "Thank you, Emperor!" ”

Pei Yuanhao's face was silent and cold, he lowered his head to look at me, his eyes flashed a little bit of joy and anger, and he said in a low voice: "What, are you satisfied with this result?" ”

“……”

I looked at him for a while, and lowered my head slightly: "Emperor Xie." ”

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and a little eunuch ran over and said, "Your Majesty, the blessing ceremony has ended." ”

I breathed hard and looked up at him.

His eyes flickered, and his breathing seemed to stop for a moment.

Then, he looked me in the eye and said calmly, "Let's drive back to the palace." ”

I was suddenly a little anxious, and subconsciously wanted to say something, but I heard him say lightly, even with a little deliberate indifference: "Yan Qingqing, from you, I understand a truth - what causes are planted, and what fruits are produced. ”

“……”

"Now, you have to learn a lesson from me, too."

“……”

"Whatever choice you make, you have to suffer the consequences."

“……”

"Wonder is my daughter, want to see her?"

“……”

"Come back to me!"

|

I was cold, as if I was in an ice cellar full of ice, and I watched him turn and walk out, the door still open, and I could see the people outside kneeling down to him and kowtowing to him, and then one by one they got up and followed him.

I was left alone, standing in this empty apse.

I don't know how long it took, I finally couldn't hold it anymore, opened the gate and chased out, but as soon as I reached the corridor, I was stopped by a familiar figure that suddenly appeared.

Little Fuzi.

He put his hands in his sleeves, I don't know if it was because he had been standing outside for too long, the weather was freezing, his face was also pale and cold, and he was so bloody that it was like a lifeless statue, he stood in front of me respectfully, and said, "Madam, the emperor is going to drive back to the palace." If Mrs. goes out at this time, I am afraid that public opinion will be unfavorable. ”

I looked at him in pain, and I also looked at the flags in front of me, and the footsteps of many people sounded, but they were slowly moving away.

In this, I wonder if there is a footstep of a wonderful word? Where is she? After praying for blessings, did she feel better? Does she remember me? If I follow Pei Yuanhao back to the palace this time, will I have a chance to see her again? These questions are like sharp knives that keep cutting my heart when they ask myself.

I struggled to move forward, but Xiaofuzi finally reached out and stopped me by the arm.

His hands were also cold, and even through the thick clothes, the coolness through it made my whole body shiver.

I was anxious: "Little Fuzi! ”

"Ma'am."

He looked at me, and his brows furrowed slightly: "Madame, don't force it. ”

“……”

"Otherwise, the result will not be good for Madame and Her Royal Highness the Princess."

His words were like a basin of ice water pouring down on my head, and I froze there.

yes, I shouldn't have forced it.

In the face of Pei Yuanhao, I must not force it, because, for so many years, I have understood too well the consequences of "demanding" on him.

It's just that, although I have understood intellectually, but the pain in my chest is unavoidable, I bit my lower lip, and the whole person trembled a little, but finally calmed myself down, I slowly reached out to hold the wall to make myself stand firm, and when I looked at him again, I said softly: "Thank you, Grandpa Fu." ”

“……”

He looked at me, and there seemed to be a hint of pain in his eyes, but it was only a fleeting moment, as if it were just a momentary illusion of man. He nodded at me and turned away.

Looking at his back, I suddenly said, "Do you have anything to say that you want me to bring to Shui Xiu?" ”

His steps faltered.

I could see his shoulders twitching slightly, but he didn't look back, and after a while, he said softly, "Madame may not believe it, but I am happier than she is to marry the one surnamed Du." ”

“……”

"I don't have anything to say to her."

“……”

"I have a word, please help me bring it to the one surnamed Du."

“……”

"Let the person surnamed Du be good to her, even better than when I was by her side in the past."

“……”

After saying this, he turned his head slightly, nodded, and then walked away without looking back.

I stood in a daze, the cold wind howling, blowing over this corridor, almost blowing my whole body cold, I don't know how long it took for me to step out of my completely cold and numb legs, step by step.

Before the banner was also displayed, the crowded Taimiao has been quiet at the moment, all the Praetorian Guards who followed the emperor over, the officials all followed the holy car and left, only some of the guards who stayed in the Taimiao were still cleaning up the rest of the scene, I slowly walked out of the side door, walked on the pine and cypress straight, green and quiet path, just walked to the side of the well pavilion, I saw a person standing inside, heard my footsteps, slowly turned around.

It's Chang Qing.

I stood at the bottom of the pavilion, my face was not yet the slightest blood, and when I saw her, I didn't know whether to be happy or sad for a while.

She seems to have the same numbness.

After a while, she beckoned to me, and I walked up as if I had been summoned by her. The well pavilion is ventilated on all sides, and it is not warmer here than outside, but at this moment, no matter how cold the place is, it does not seem to be a threat to us, because some places in the body are already completely cold.

I looked at her for a while, and said softly, "Why hasn't the queen returned to the palace yet?" ”

She also looked at me: "This palace still has something to say to you." ”

“……”

"Yang Jinqiao's matter, this palace admits that it was I who selfishly calculated her and forced her, but in fact, what you hope for should be such an ending, right?"

“……”

I was silent, but eventually, I nodded.

This ending is indeed what I want, but I can't do it because I don't have the power to manipulate other people's lives.

But - Chang Qing, as the lord of the six palaces and the queen of the world, it is too easy for her to manipulate the life of a person, especially a woman who has had a past with Pei Yuanhao.

I asked, "However, how does the queen mother know that Yang Jinqiao will appear today and will be privately taught to Sun Jingfei in this place?" ”
