Chapter 111: Haoxuan, the Outsider (8)
Jin'er didn't lie to me, Tian Baolin was indeed pregnant.
It's just that what I didn't expect was that Wen Ren Qingcang would choose to tell Murong Yuqing the news in person, which made Murong Yuqing feel painful.
When I came to Kunning Palace, Murong Yuqing had already soaked himself in the bathtub. It was a kind of drowning that was full of despair and left no way back for itself. If you are not careful, you will die in it.
She hid herself so well that I would not have been able to find her if I hadn't seen her long hair floating on the water.
"Idiot! You are crazy! I couldn't hold back a roar and pulled her out of the tub.
The water in the tub has long been devoid of temperature, and on a cold winter night, it is bitterly cold.
"Murong Yichen!" She called out to me in a hoarse voice.
I didn't even bother to look at her, so I threw her the bed.
There was a "bang" sound, and there was no trace of distress.
I rolled her up in the quilt and said to her viciously, "Do you want to die!" ”
Murong Yuqing's tears burst out of her eyes and she said, "You're here...... It's so nice......"
For some reason, my heart seemed to be moved a little bit at this moment.
But looking at Murong Yuqing's dejected appearance, he finally relented, "Looking forward to me coming?" ”
After that, I sneered again, "Hmph, if I knew that I went to great lengths to come in and see you like this, I'd rather not come!" ”
Murong Yuqing cried so much that she hugged the quilt and lay back, looking very pitiful and helpless, "Murong Yichen, am I very cheap in your eyes?" ”
"What?" I was slightly stunned, I didn't expect her to ask such a question.
- Am I cheap in your eyes?
I really don't know how to answer this question.
Because, I don't have the answer in my heart at all.
I used to be jealous that Qingcang could get everything without any effort, and I also hated that iron could not become steel, and complained about Murong Yuqing's unfirmness. But more often than not, I blame myself for not having the ability. Since leaving the Forbidden City, it has been more than 20 years, and I have not avenged the revenge for myself!
So, maybe I once looked down on Murong Yuqing. But most of those who look down on me are based on my great cause.
Before I could think of a pertinent answer, Murong Yuqing cried and laughed at herself, "Murong Yichen, I think I'm so cheap, so cheap that I have no shame, so cheap that I can't finish my body." ”
Her eyes were very sad, and the tears on her face had not dried up and had new marks, "Maybe it's because of my cheapness, so I deserve not to be loved." ”
"Heh......"
Maybe it's everything I've been through, and I can't rub the sand in my eyes. I don't allow myself to be cowardly, and I don't allow myself to see others cowardly.
So, I sat down at the table and poured myself a cup of tea, not wanting to look at Murong Yuqing again, "Since you have self-knowledge, why bother to practice yourself again and again." ”
"I thought I could let go of everything, even the walls of hatred that had been built up of my heart. I thought I could turn back as long as I was desperate! ”
Regarding my question, Murong Yuqing responded to me with an extremely sincere sentence. Not only did she admit that she thought about giving up everything, giving up hatred, and even wanted to start with Wen Ren again.
He also regarded me as a close friend, saying that Fate's favorite thing to do was to joke with her. She said that whenever she wanted to turn back, whenever her hard heart was slowly melted, everything would change again.
I listened to her words and felt sarcastic in my heart.
What fate loves to do most is to joke with her?
Isn't the queen mother's today, my today, and Jin'er's today a joke played by fate? If more than twenty years ago, nothing had happened. So today, our lives won't be like this.
We will not suffer so much torture and suffering, let alone struggle in hatred, and we will live half of our lives.
When he came back to his senses from the unwillingness and hatred in his heart again, Murong Yuqing was still crying and thinking about it.
She said that she could not care about the favor in the eyes of outsiders, and she could even guard the Kunning Palace alone and not compete with others. All she wants is to smell people's hearts!
"Enough!"
I don't know if it's because I'm full of hatred and jealousy for Wenren Qingcang, or if I really don't want to hear about other people's love. So, he finally opened his mouth coldly, trying to interrupt Murong Yuqing's words.
But Murong Yuqing hasn't talked to anyone for too long, and she doesn't care about my emotions at all. He just pretended not to hear it, and continued to tell me that he would not come again.
Because Sweet Pauline is pregnant!
The man she loves the most has a child with another woman after all.
I admit, maybe I'm a narrow-minded man.
I am full of hatred for the man who robbed me of everything from birth. Even though I've been trying to deal with him in any way, I still don't want to hear anything about him as good or bad.
Especially, listening to others say word by word how much they love him.
I put down the teacup in my hand, walked to Murong Yuqing, and slapped her hard.
"Smack!"
The sound is crisp and loud.
"I've never hit a woman in my life, you're the first!"
At this moment, I hope Murong Yuqing can come to his senses in this slap. Not for her future, not for whether she can become the most perfect chess piece in the hands of me and the queen mother. Just to not be able to look at her anymore.
With my hand, which was still a little numb, I took out a set of clothes and threw it in front of Murong Yuqing: "Look at your current appearance, you are not a human or a ghost!" I haven't seen you for a month, and you can't recognize yourself anymore! ”
Murong Yuqing looked at the clothes in front of her in a daze, and didn't make any movements.
Seeing this, I spoke again, "What?" Want me to dress it for you? ”
There was anger in the words, even close to a low roar.
A few drops fell from Murong Yuqing's eyes, and he raised his head in a daze, "Murong Yichen...... You're so fierce......"
The look is innocent, slightly coquettish.
When I saw her like this, my body was shocked, and I couldn't bear to hurt her anymore.
So he softened his tone a little, and turned around impatiently, "Quickly put on your clothes, don't catch a cold." ”
Murong Yuqing didn't answer me, but the sound of Suosuo's dressing behind her proved that she was still saved. With my back to her, I returned to my position and sat down. And Murong Yuqing, after changing her clothes, gradually sorted out her emotions.
"Why are you here?" She walked up to me and sat down and asked.
I glanced her up and down, and my tone was very disdainful, "I'm not coming, how can I see you like this?" ”
After finishing speaking, he found that the ridicule in his words was too strong, so he forcibly changed the sentence, "Looking at the petite body, the figure is not bad." ”
Murong Yuqing glanced at me and said something that had nothing to do with my topic, "The emperor knows about your existence, you must be cautious in your actions in the future." ”
"I know, that's why I haven't come to see you for a month."
Don't I know? The so-called clues were deliberately left by me. Otherwise, just the secret passage that connects Kunning Palace and Cining Palace, Wenren Qingcang will never know that I have been here for the rest of his life.
After thinking about it, I sneered again, "I want to see how capable he is!" Hmph, I actually want to catch turtles in the urn! ”
"What the hell is going on?" Murong Yuqing was slightly worried, and her calmness when thinking about the problem was not at all like the appearance of crying and crying for death and life just now.
"Nothing ......"
I explained lightly, saying that it was because Wenren Qingcang had been sending people to watch outside the Kunning Palace, and every time I came over, it took a lot of thought. And the reason why it has been discovered recently may be because it has come too often, so it is suspicious.
Murong Yuqing did not doubt my explanation. Just a few perfunctory words to me, but my mind has long since drifted to where it has gone.
Seeing this, I had no choice but to persuade her as a brother, "You, even if you don't work for the Murong family, you should plan for you and your two children." ”
As an emperor, what's the use of loving a woman no matter how much you love it? What he has to face is a hundred civil and military officials, the people of the world, and the heirs of everyone. How could he be satisfied with just two children?
In the past, there were no other heirs in this palace, and she Murong Yuqing could mess around as much as she liked. But now that Tian Baolin is pregnant, everything is different.
As long as she successfully gives birth to the imperial heir, whether it is a prince or a princess, there is a certain threat to Murong Yuqing.
It's a pity that my persuasion not only failed to make Murong Yuqing hear her heart, but was also sarcastically mocked by her, "When did you become so kind?" ”
"Huh!" In this regard, I could only shake my head and smile: "If you don't like to listen, then I am self-inflicted and nosy!" But there's one thing, don't blame me for not reminding you......"
Speaking of this, I glanced at Murong Yuqing lightly, and even the words were much heavier: "You live in the splendid Kunning Palace, and your father-in-law and Yusheng are still suffering in the frontier." ”
After that, I analyzed again, "Although your sister-in-law's mother secretly takes care of her, her identity is still a princess outside the country......"
Murong Yuqing's expression gradually became ugly as I said more and more clear words, but I didn't take it to heart at all.
just stared at Murong Yuqing and said that the matter was getting more and more serious, "If this matter is not handled well, and then someone is caught talking about it, maybe the Murong family will be charged with betraying the country." ”
Murong Yuqing's expression flashed, and he didn't dare to look me in the eyes anymore, "I know." ”
When I saw this, I knew that she had heard what I meant, and she didn't want to push him anymore. I just suddenly remembered a funny question, so I subconsciously opened my mouth, "Do you love him?" ”
"What?" Murong Yuqing looked stunned.
"I said Wenren Qingcang, do you love him?"
Murong Yuqing was stopped by my question, and couldn't give an answer in the middle of the sound. I just buried my head very low, wishing that there was no one around me. Because of this, no one will look at her jokes and ask her where her heart is.
But even so, I can still clearly understand her answer.
She loved him to the core.
It is precisely because she loves him that she is so miserable today.
If it was Jin'er who was standing here today, she wouldn't have any love for Wenren Qingcang at all. Then, just because Wen Ren Qingcang refused to find out the truth of the matter, he ruined his family like this. I think Jin'er had already taken Wen Renqingcang's life.
She was only afraid that she would not move fast enough and make her family suffer more. I'm afraid that the means are not ruthless enough, not enough to vent the hatred in my heart. Where else, with so much tangle and pain?
I looked at Murong Yuqing and didn't answer me for a long time, so I heard again, "Do you love your father-in-law?" Love Yusheng? ”
After that, he said to her very cautiously, "Murong Yuqing, if you hear that between Qingcang and the Murong family, you must make a trade-off, what will you do?" ”
Murong Yuqing raised his eyes to look at me, and there were already ripples in his eyes.
I know that at this moment, she must be very tormented in her heart.
Her family suffered a downfall, her sisters died at her hands, she had no support in the palace, and she was betrayed. She was very dissatisfied with everything in front of her, and she was unwilling. But for the sake of love, he would rather let go of all hatred.
But even so, the man she loves the most still has flesh and blood with other women. She hated in her heart, and she knew that her family was living in dire straits. But she couldn't do anything.
The most important thing is that she can't get over this hurdle in her heart.
"Listen," I held Murong Yuqing's shoulders tightly, "I am a man, I know best what men think!" ”
I don't care how much the queen mother understands Wenren Qingcang, and I don't know how much Wenren Qingcang loves Murong Yuqing, how much is it or how much is false.
I only know that at this moment, I need Murong Yuqing to believe the words in my mouth, "An emperor cannot have love!" He can hold you or throw you! He can like you, but he can't give you a unique love! ”
I told Murong Yuqing with the most rigorous attitude and the most cautious tone that an emperor is definitely the most important thing between the happiness of his concubines and the country.
At least now, Wen Ren Qingcang has sacrificed Murong Yuqing's happiness for the sake of his country and the peace of the harem.
"You are his queen, and you are obliged to undress when he comes to you. But ......"
In the end, I pointed to Murong Yuqing's left chest, and said word by word, "Yours can't do anything for him!" ”
After finishing speaking, he looked at Murong Yuqing's hazy eyes, for fear that she would not understand enough. So, at the end, he added a warning, "Otherwise, you will lose not only your life, but also the life of the entire Murong family." ”
Murong Yuqing listened to my words and covered her face in pain.
It only took a moment for her weak shoulders to tremble.
She cried like a child in front of her, without the demeanor of a queen's mother.
I looked at her like this, and for the first time I felt that I had used her a little too much.
But...... There was no turning back from the bow.
Now that I've come this far, I can't stop.
I had to follow the instructions of the queen mother and gain her trust step by step. Then train one of her hearts to become stronger and darker......
