Staring at Zhuangzi in a daze, the queen touched her cheek, "Your Majesty, how can you beat the concubine, what did the concubine do wrong, you want to treat the concubine like this."

Zhuangzi casually threw over a blank piece of paper, "Take a good look for yourself, how many bad things have your Wu family done behind the back of the imperial court?" I have always thought that you are my queen, and the Wu family is a relative of the emperor and will not be held accountable, but I would never have thought that you would be jealous, not only deceived me and the queen mother with a fake pregnancy, but also framed Concubine Liu and caused Concubine Liu's child to die prematurely. This title deed should be evidence that you bought Imperial Doctor Lu! Otherwise, how could you give such a big deal to Imperial Doctor Lu? ”

The queen looked at the title deed that fell to the ground in shock, picked it up with trembling hands, and in a moment, the title deed slipped from her hand, and she leaned down, "Your Majesty, the concubine knows that she is wrong, and the concubine is stupid, but the concubine does this, but she just wants to keep the emperor's heart!" Two lines of tears dripped down, and her words were very affectionate.

"Keep my heart? Let me ask the queen, is it necessary to kill others in order to keep my heart? Zhuangzi didn't even look at her, and his tone was very cold.

The queen suddenly stood up as usual, her eyes stayed on Zhuangzi like pleading, and after a bitter smile, she muttered: "From the day the concubine entered the palace, she knew that there was another woman in the emperor's heart. Although the concubine didn't know who she was, the concubine thought that as long as the concubine was good to the emperor, the emperor would not feel it. Over the years, the emperor is no longer as indifferent to his concubines as he was when he first entered the palace, and the concubines have always thought that the emperor still has feelings for his concubines. After a pause, her gaze shifted to me, "But why did you come back?" Why? The concubine will never allow the relationship that she has built up with the emperor to be dissipated by your appearance. So, you have to die, you die, the emperor is only sad for a while, just like you once left, after that, the concubine is still the emperor's queen, or the master of the harem, haha..." she laughed, her voice very desolate.

The Queen Mother walked over to the queen's position, and in front of her, the Queen Mother still looked at her, stretched out her hand to caress her cheek, and couldn't bear to say: "Silly boy, he is the emperor, no woman can keep the emperor's heart." Even if he mourned the family, he couldn't keep the heart of the emperor back then. Why do you do this? ”

"The Queen Mother..."She called softly and threw herself into the arms of the Queen Mother, "The concubine has failed the Queen Mother's trust in the concubine, the concubine is guilty, I only hope that the Queen Mother will have mercy, don't blame the people of the Wu family for the fault of the concubine, these are all borne by the concubine." ”

The Queen Mother closed her eyes very painfully, and it took a long time to open them, facing me, she looked at me for the first time with a kind of request, "Concubine Liu, when the queen first entered the palace, because she wanted to please the scene, she accidentally fell from the roof of the stage, and suffered a heavy head injury and was in a coma for nearly three months. Since then, his sanity has not been very good. This time, I'm afraid it's because of your appearance that you're too afraid that you will lose the emperor, so you will be framed. The mourning family knows that if you don't let go of this matter, Jing'er will not let go of the queen. Therefore, the mourning family begs you, and the matter is peaceful. ”

I couldn't believe my ears, and I didn't expect the Queen Mother to say this to me, but how could I let go of the person who killed my child. Even if she didn't kill Liuyun's only child with her own hands, she caused it all by herself.

I can't open my mouth, I can't intercede for the queen.

"My harem, I will never allow such a thing to happen, the queen will be grounded in Fengyang Palace for the time being, and I will make a decision another day." Dropping this cold sentence, Zhuangzi took my hand and left the Queen Mother's bedroom without looking back.

On the way, I broke free of Zhuangzi's hand, "You are the emperor, why don't you make a decision?" ”

He turned to look at me, "You want me, what do you do?" ”

But my heart was confused at this moment, I don't know if I want Zhuangzi to order a heavy punishment for her, and I don't know if I want her to fight with her life. Or is it that I can't swallow the resentment in my heart and make me lose my duty?

I raised my eyes and stared at him for a long time before asking, "Zhuangzi, are you unwilling to let go of the queen who loves you so much?" ”

His body couldn't help but tremble, and he looked at me puzzled, I just smiled, "She is your queen, but you don't feel any pity for her." Just now, were you afraid that I would agree to the Queen Mother's request and release the Empress, so that your desire to reduce the power of the Wu family would be shattered, so you hurriedly took me out of there, right? ”

His expression was no longer calm after I spat out these words.

Once, the things that Liuyun did to cut down Queen Han Xiaoyang's mother's family have always remained in my heart. The sentence that Zhuangzi said in the palace of the Queen Mother, the Wu family has done a lot of bad things behind the back of the court, and that sentence is the best proof. As the emperor, he did not pursue what the Wu family did, which can only show one problem, he, like Liuyun, was also tied up by those people and could not follow his own thoughts.

He, however, is the same as Liuyun.

It's just that Liuyun not only used me, but also hurt me. And him, I don't know if I'm thinking too much about it.

"Song Liu, you..." he pursed his lips slightly, but he didn't continue, isn't it, my words have already reached the right point.

"I don't know what happened to you and the queen in the years I left, but I can tell that the queen really cares about you and is afraid of losing your heart. I can relate to a woman's urgency to keep a man. I frowned and said softly, just like the heart that I had feared losing Liuyun, it was the same.

Zhuangzi raised his expression and became a little serious, "You hope that I won't pursue it?" But if it weren't for her, your child wouldn't have died. ”

I looked up at him again, "I know that you want me to pursue it, and I know that you are dissatisfied with the queen's family." Your tone and look make me see what you are thinking. ”

A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Zhuangzi's mouth, but he instantly put it away again, "Song Liu, when I was able to successfully eradicate the regent, the Wu family did help a lot. However, I have already given their family great grace, and according to the mother's will, Wu Xue is the queen. But the Wu family, since they had the rights, they were happy to enjoy it, and they relied on themselves to be relatives of the emperor and the country, bullying the people, and privately occupying many people's fields. As the emperor, how can I turn a blind eye. However, their Wu family is a hero after all, and I just want to borrow the queen's matter to give them a little warning. If I still act as if nothing happened, then where is my majesty? ”

I sighed slightly, turned around and walked forward alone, took a few steps and stopped, looked back at him, and said softly: "When I lost my child, I really wanted her to die, but I don't want her to die now. The words fell, and he took a lotus foot and left.

After returning to the Yuchu Palace, I locked myself in the dormitory, am I the poor queen Wu Xue? I asked myself, why would I say that sentence otherwise?

Just because her family has made meritorious contributions, no matter what she does, Zhuangzi can't indulge her too much. Even if he was sincere to Zhuangzi, Zhuangzi still failed to pay attention to her existence. In this regard, he is the opposite of Liuyun.

In order to stabilize the Han family, Liuyun is very fond of Han Xiaoyang.

And Zhuangzi, in order to be wary of the Wu family, was cold and ruthless to Wu Xue.

I seem to have forgotten that royalty is inherently ruthless. What you do on the surface and what you think on the inside are completely different.

That's why I'm leaving the palace.

But my child, after all, died because of the queen, and I know that I hate her.

But I pity her even more.

In my heart, I don't want her to end badly.

In the first place, I shouldn't have listened to Zhuangzi and stayed in the palace. Perhaps, my child will not die, and I will not bring these troubles to the palace. Queen Wu Xue would not do these wrong things because she hated me.

Is everything because of me? I'm really messed up, messed up.

Qingqing pushed the door in, but stood in the middle of the dormitory and looked at me for a while, before slowly putting the food on the table, "You haven't eaten for a day, no matter what, eat a little!" ”

I looked at her, and it was as if I was crushing a big stone in my heart, and it was very uncomfortable.

"The emperor decreed that the queen should not step out of Fengyang Palace in this life. However, she is still the queen. Qingqing said again.

I smiled bitterly, "Even if you don't depose her, you will be grounded in the future, and this is no different from deposing." ”

Qingqing walked up to me and held one of my hands, "These are all her faults." But I'm really sorry for making you so uncomfortable! ”

I shook my head, not wanting to find out who was right and who was wrong, because the results were always unexpected, "It's all because of me, although I don't have anything to do with Zhuangzi, but the people in the palace naturally don't think so." You have to be considerate of the Queen, all I can say is that she is just a poor person. ”

"Song Liu, even if you lose your child, I can still see that your heart and past have not changed." She crouched down and stared up at me.

"It's time for me to go!" I spit out these four words softly, got up and walked to the window to look up at the sky, tonight is full of stars, although there is no moon, the starry sky is still very bright. In the future, there will be no flowing clouds, no children, even if there is no one relatives around me, I will let myself live well.

Her body stiffened, "Do you really have no nostalgia for the emperor at all?" ”

I looked at her with a stunned low brow and a look of anticipation, I have only a friendship between friends with Zhuangzi from beginning to end. After all, a heart that has been hurt cannot be healed.

If you have to say it's nostalgia, it's better to say that it's a kind of concern for your friends!

Thinking of this, I smiled slightly, and I didn't plan to answer Qingqing's words.

I suddenly realized that it had been a whole year since I left Liuyun.
