Chapter 18
There is a stone tablet in the pavilion, engraved with a text of the Tao Te Ching, which seems to be left by a favorite concubine of the former emperor.
"The highest goodness is like water, and water is good for all things without fighting for it." Chu Qinglan muttered softly, but the queen's shadow appeared in front of her eyes.
It's not so much not to fight, it's better to say that the queen has already fought and is tired, so she doesn't care about these things anymore.
It was obviously such a person, but when Chu Yurou started spreading rumors in front of her, she connected the queen with the poisonous queen seen in the previous history books, thinking that the mother queen was a lunatic fighting for power and profit.
Those heartbreaking words back then should have made the queen mother so sad.
Mo Beiyu quietly stared at Chu Qinglan's face. For some reason, ever since she woke up that day, there was always these seemingly invisible sadness in her eyes.
And he always tried his best to erase it.
Chu Qinglan felt that her chin was gently lifted, her rough fingertips with thin calluses ran across the corners of her eyes, and wiped away the teardrops.
The man in front of her got closer and closer, and she could already smell the aroma of the stone wine she drank at today's banquet.
"Sister Lan! You are here!"
When the two were about to touch each other, Chu Yin's voice full of surprise suddenly came from behind Chu Qinglan.
Chu Yin was bored at the banquet, his father and queen mother went out, even Chu Qinglan was not there, he and Concubine Shu looked at each other, and finally couldn't help but take a step first.
He was walking around here, but saw two figures in the distance that looked like his sister and brother-in-law.
Chu Yin approached carefully, and indeed saw those two people, regardless of what the scene was, he ran over directly.
In front of the child, Chu Qinglan definitely couldn't let Mo Beiyu do whatever he wanted like before. She pushed Mo Beiyu away and kept the two of them at a certain distance.
"What's wrong?"
Chu Yin frowned and arched his nose: "At the banquet, both the father and the queen left, and no one accompanied me."
He took Chu Qinglan's hand: "Sister Lan, go and accompany me."
Facing the boy's star-like eyes, Chu Qinglan really couldn't refuse.
They took a step ahead, leaving Mo Beiyu smiling helplessly in the pavilion.
Although he was unable to kiss Fangze, the moment Chu Yin arrived, he clearly felt that the sorrow on Chu Qinglan's body was swept away.
That's all right, he's satisfied.
As long as you can see Chu Qinglan smile again.
Mo Beiyu stood alone in the pavilion, blowing the cold wind, which beat dead leaves as it passed by his toes, and there was a crisp sound from a distance.
The edge of the golden water pattern brushed the thin soil, Chu Yurou staggered to support the stone pillar next to him, and waved away the maid.
With tears remaining on her face, she walked towards Mo Beiyu step by step.
This time, with the bright moonlight, she could clearly see who was standing in the center of the pavilion.There was finally a glimmer of light in the gloomy eyes.
"Brother Beiyu."
The soft voice was not the one Mo Beiyu expected. He turned his brows coldly, turned around and saluted: "Princess Yongping."
Chu Yurou shook her head wildly, the bumps along the way made her hair accessories a little messy.
"Don't call me that, I'm Yurou, don't you remember me?"
She wanted to go one step further, clinging tightly to that stalwart figure, but the other party avoided it as if dodging.
"There's no one here, it's okay." Chu Yurou opened her arms, hoping to get a positive hug, but unexpectedly the man in front of her just frowned.
"Princess Yongping respects herself."
As if verifying the emperor's words, Chu Yurou stood there blankly, clearly feeling that the man in front of her had no affection for her at all.
"Why? Then why did you show up?"
Helpless tears dripped from the corners of Chu Yurou's eyes, she covered her face and cried bitterly, and fell to her knees.
The belief she had firmly believed in seemed to have completely collapsed overnight. She said that in front of her father just to prove her friendship with Mo Beiyu.
But the man in front of her ruthlessly tore up all her expectations.
"Why are you doing this to me? Am I not good enough?"
After learning about the assassin from the secret guard, Mo Beiyu's attitude towards Chu Yurou was already at his limit so long as he failed to show disgust.
He would not let go of anyone who wanted to hurt Chu Qinglan. If it weren't for this matter, they had lied to Chu Yurou before, then Chu Yurou would not even be able to keep this title now.
"Princess Yongping, I have nothing to do with you, why did you make such a statement? It's a dirty name for the princess."
The estranged words reached Chu Yurou's ears, but she was still unwilling to believe that this was the truth: "Bei Yu, I like you, take me away."
Chu Yurou's earnest eyes fixed on Mo Beiyu's eyes: "I know that the marriage between you and the princess was forced by the empress, I'm not afraid, let's go and find the emperor now."
The effect of the medicine made Chu Yurou completely disregard the shame. She wanted to hold Mo Beiyu's hand, but the other party wanted to avoid even this point.
Mo Beiyu withdrew his hand, looked at Chu Yurou's obviously abnormal expression, and knew that she must have taken some strange medicine.
Of course it's okay to leave her here, but the maid just now saw the two getting along, if she left like this, if something really happened to Princess Yongping, she would get into trouble instead.
He naturally knew that the emperor wanted to deal with Concubine Shu, but Concubine Shu was an old man in the palace after all, and her daughter was once favored by the emperor, and now it's not the end of the day,
If it was normal, Mo Beiyu would naturally not care about these things, but his and Chu Qinglan's wedding is approaching.
Even if it is to prevent the mother and daughter from making troubles, I have to be more cautious.
"Princess Yongping, offended."
Not wanting to drive Chu Yurou crazy, but also unable to sit idly by, Mo Beiyu simply apologized, and slashed at Chu Yurou's neck with a knife.
The other party's physical strength is not good, and it is only thanks to the help of medicine that it can survive until now.
Mo Beiyu supported Chu Yurou's body that was about to fall through the clothes, put her in the pavilion, and then walked out of the court to call the maid over.
"Princess Yongping fainted, send her to Concubine Shu's bedroom."
Presumably Concubine Shu is also anxious to find her daughter at this time, seeing that Chu Yurou is sleeping in the pavilion, the palace maid dares not hesitate.
Chu Yurou was weak, and after running outside for so long, she developed a high fever when she returned to the palace.
The queen also had the same symptoms as her, but it was slightly milder.
In the haze, the queen grabbed the emperor's hand and rubbed it on the side of her face like a kitten. After smelling the familiar smell, she closed her eyes and fell asleep again.
And the man beside her looked tenderly, and never left her side all night.
Concubine Shu was sitting beside Chu Yurou, wiping her body over and over again. She had given Chu Yurou the antidote, but the high fever on Chu Yurou's body was due to her walking in the cold wind for too long.
Even though her consciousness was chaotic, Chu Yurou still whispered Mo Beiyu's name.
"Don't worry, the husband you want, mother and concubine will definitely get it for you!"
Concubine Shu's eyes were both distressed and resentful, she felt sorry for her daughter's suffering, and resented Mo Beiyu's ruthlessness, but she couldn't help Mo Beiyu for a while.
