Chapter 98: What Mirror, What Illusion?
There was a rush of footsteps, and Yin Xinmei heard the sound of knives and forks clinking, and figures of different shades dangled in front of her. She vaguely saw someone placing the table beside her bed, and after a while, the noise died down, and she felt the edge of the bed sink and knew that it was Sether sitting up again.
"I'll help you up," Sether squeezed her hand, pulled her up and straightened it, "I'll feed you." β
"But I'm in a bad stomach right now, and it's nice to barely throw up," Yin Xinmei sat up, her hand still tightly held by Sether, "I don't want to eat anything." β
"Slow down, you won't throw up," Sether squeezed her palm, "I'll feed you." β
"I'm just poisoned, not crippled. She tried to pull her hand back, but he tightened his grip, "I can eat it myself." β
"You must be mad at me. β
"You didn't offend me, why are you angry?"
"Look, you're mad at me," Seser shifted his position closer to her, "My mother taught me from a young age that I must not be angry while eating and sleeping. Tell me, Xinmei, are you angry with me and a dead man?"
Hidden Xinmei was extremely surprised to hear Sether's words, she straightened her eyes, and almost at the same time felt that her vision was clearer, I don't know whether it was the previous medicinal soup or the shock at the moment, which of the two had a greater healing effect, in short, she could almost see Sesser's beautiful face close at hand in an instant - ah, since the Blue Star Cave parted, she felt that she hadn't seen him for almost a century, her heart involuntarily began to beat faster, she felt her qi and blood surge, and her ears were hot.
"Dead man?" she repeated dumbfounded, feeling that Sesher and herself were not alone at all, "who died?"
"Duchess of Windsor," said Sether, with a strange smile on his face, as triumphant, as cruel, as relieved relief, "she's dead. β
"She's dead?!" Hidden Eyebrows cried out again as if she had been hit by a bullet, and immediately wanted to jump out of bed, but Sether held her down first, "How is it possible? Who killed her?"
"It's me, I killed her. Sether said calmly, and the expression on his face could be clearly seen at this moment, which was by no means the expression of a person who had loved or had been obsessed with Bloody Meili, "Moreover, I killed her three times." β
"What the hell are you talking about, Your Majesty?" said Yin Xinmei, unable to believe her ears.
"Something very strange and terrible has happened in Cloudcast, and I'm willing to tell you in detail from beginning to end, and after that, your anger and anger at me will surely disappear. β
"I have nothing to be annoyed with you, Your Majesty. "Hidden eyebrows are insincere.
"Didn't we say that when there is no one else, you only call me by my name? It can be seen that you are really angry with me, stop being stubborn, hide your eyebrows, I know your expression when you lie. But before that, you can answer me a question. β
"What's the problem?"
"You have to promise you, you have to tell me the truth. And I can't get angry when I answer, because the answer to this question is very important for me to get to the bottom of it. β
"So serious?" Hidden eyebrows were infected by the deep worry and anxiety in his tone.
"That's right, the stakes are high - can you guarantee that?"
"Well, I promise, I'll know everything, I'll say everything. β
Sether nodded after receiving her assurance, but the look of anxiety on his face did not subside, but only added a touch of embarrassment, and the hidden eyebrows stared at his face so closely, how could they not connect him with the lustful maniac who indulged in lust in Meili's bed.
His face was still so stunningly beautiful, but it added more sorrow and pain than before, his dark circles were heavier, he seemed to have been sleepless for several nights, his shallow stubble was also exposed, his eyes were full of blood, and he felt that he was much thinner than before, and the indifferent and alienated imperial ruthlessness was also diluted by the pain of this force.
Seser had been holding her hand and didn't let go much, and then he found that his hand was more than twice as rough as when he applied the resurrection ointment to her in the Mirror Lake Palace before, it turned out that Seser had a pair of hands that were more delicate and white than a woman, but now his hands have turned yellow, his knuckles have become a little abrupt, and his palms have also grown a lot of calluses because of the long-term grip on the reins and hilt of the sword.
"What the hell are you asking me?"
Seeing that Seser hadn't spoken again, Yin Xinmei couldn't help but urge him.
He could only sigh slightly, as if he had made up his mind, but he did not look her in the eyeβand he had always been accustomed to gazing at each other with those dazzling black diamond eyes, whether facing courtiers or women, until the man in front of him could not help but be defeated in the light of his majesty and glory.
But at this moment, Sether deliberately avoided the gaze of the hidden eyebrows, he twisted his head to the side slightly, stared straight at the dining table next to the bed, and asked in a low voice for a long time, "When you were in the Dark Cloud Castle, did the Sang Ladder ......?"
"Is there anything?" Yin Xinmei was confused and confused by his question, she had seen him so serious before, and thought it was a major event related to the political situation in Velogosa, but she didn't expect to wait for such a clueless question.
"Let me ask," Sether turned his head cautiously, but still didn't meet her gaze directly, "Has anyone hurt you in Cloudcast?"
"The Duchess of Windsor has indeed devised a whole lot of disgusting ways to kill me," said Yin Xinmei at once, "but she must have been unlucky, not only did she not harm me, but according to Your Majesty, she tossed herself to death in the end." β
"Really?" Sether cried out in surprise, shaking his shoulders with both hands and shaking excitedly, "Are you really okay in Cloud Castle?"
"Bloody Meili wanted to torture me, strip off my fingernails and toenails, and then have Sanjie and his soldiers in Dark Cloud Castle gang rape me," Yin Xinmei sneered, "Unfortunately, her old lover and chief jailer, Captain Kupe, decided not to work for her anymore, and chose to escape from Cloud Castle with meβso, she didn't succeed." β
"It's okay if you're okay, ah, it's okay if you're okay......" Sether's tone of voice choked up, and she thought that her eyesight hadn't recovered, so she was dazzled at the moment, she felt that Sether's eyes were red when she heard her say that she was fine, and she just wanted to open her eyes to take a closer look at what was going on with Sether, but she was suddenly hugged tightly in her arms by the latter.
"Great, great, the ...... in the mirror Sure enough, it's a hallucination, but luckily you're okay, fortunately you're okay...... ......"Sether's arms wrapped around her, almost making her breathless.
"Sether, what's wrong with you? What are you talking about? What mirror? What hallucination?"
