In the evening, the clouds above the palace city are steaming and rosy, connecting with the vermilion palace wall.Empress Ye wore a Yanju crown on her head, a red Ju garment with a round collar and tufted pattern, a long shirt with a straight collar, and a deep blue woven golden cloud and dragon pattern Xiapei, and she walked into the Ninghua Hall in style.

Her red crane Ganoderma lucidum supports weaving Jinshou character patterns on the ground, and the skirt of the skirt has a white jade cloud-like pendant, a red thread tie belt, and a jade flower ribbon. When walking, she wears rings and jingle bells, which is very luxurious. People, the palace people gathered their skirts and saluted one after another.

The queen ordered the palace servants: "You all step back." Then she walked into the bedroom alone, sat by the dressing table, and called out: "Lingzhen—" that was the name of the queen's personal maid.

When the veil moved, someone came out from behind the curtain, but it wasn't the queen's maid, but the current emperor in ordinary clothes.The queen peeped through the Linghua mirror and asked coldly: "What is your Majesty doing?"

Jinshang walked behind the queen and asked in a low voice, "How did Concubine Zhou die?"

The queen said: "He committed suicide by taking poison."

Jinshang asked: "It is true that he committed suicide by taking poison?"

The queen looked at herself in the mirror, Imakami in the mirror, and said with a sneer, "It was killed by my concubine. Is this the answer your Majesty wants?"

After listening to this, Jin Shang took a few steps back, and said with a ferocious face: "This is what the empress said."

The queen just sneered.

Imakami couldn't help but ask, "What exactly do you want to do?"

The queen gritted her teeth and said, "I should ask you this—" After she finished speaking, she picked up a hairpin filled with lapis lazuli and ruby, and stuck it upside down at her temples. Said: "Don't think I don't know what you did."

Hearing this, His Majesty's heart tightened, and he took another step back, but the Empress turned her head again, and carefully pasted a jade tin with pearls in front of the mirror.

Red candles, red veils, silver-red cloaks, beauties in red dresses, and rubies like blood congealed on the temples of beauties.His eyes were blood red, so red that it was suffocating.

Imam couldn't help looking at his hands, the red candle reflected the red light on his palms through the red tent, as if his hands were soaked in blood.

It turned out that she was addicted to blood and couldn't get rid of it.

"Siqing," Jinshang whispered the queen's small characters.

The queen finally finished her makeup, put on a blue collarless shirt with large sleeves, and said: "This is all I have said to Your Majesty, I have nothing to say. Your Majesty, please go out."

Now he said: "For more than ten years, why did you and I end up here? Is there anything we can't talk about?"

"Ten years..." The queen lost her mind for a moment, and said immediately, "Looking back, these ten years are like a joke, and there is really nothing to miss."

"You really think so."

The queen said: "The people who used to laugh at the ridiculous things in the world, and the people who laughed at the ridiculous things in the world, now realize that they are actually laughing at themselves."

Jin Shang said: "I'm afraid you're not laughing at yourself, but at me..."

The queen said coldly: "Your Majesty can understand it in his heart, why bother to speak out?"

"Ye Siqing!"

The queen stood up, spread out her wide sleeves, pointed to the palace door with one hand, and said, "Please go out."

Wandering around without a word today, he walked away in a huff.

The queen thought for a moment, then suddenly said sharply: "If you haven't come out, how long are you going to hide?"

The door of the side hall slammed lightly, and Ling Zhen, the queen's personal maid, walked in gently, bowed her skirt and bowed.

The queen looked at Ling Zhen, sighed, restrained her hostility, and said lightly: "You and I have been together for many years, and we are no different from direct sisters. I have missed you all these years. I know your thoughts, but I Elder brother has passed away, you can't delay your whole life because of this. Since I promised you to King Jianchang back then, let's start preparing for the marriage right now. Before I die, get the marriage done, in case there will be another accident, and you will be exhausted you."

Ling Zhen tilted her head and said stubbornly, "I don't want to marry."

The queen said: "If you don't marry, no one can protect you, you have no choice."

It was getting dark, and outside the palace gate behind Lingzhen was the endless night of the Forbidden City, as if Lingzhen would be sucked away by this floating night in the next second.The queen sighed and said, "So I'm sorry for you."

"Your Majesty still has affection for you, why do you insist on turning against Your Majesty?"

The queen closed her eyes and said, "You don't need this kind of charity. I've had enough."

Ling Zhen said: "You used to say that you can't bear it anymore, you can bear it from the beginning."

The queen walked slowly to the door of the palace, closed the door with both hands, turned around and leaned against the door, raised her eyebrows and said: "He has ghosts in his heart."

Ling Zhen asked: "Who are you talking about? Your Majesty?"

"I don't know what shameful thing he did behind my back, otherwise why did he react so violently just now?"

Ling Zhen said: "Maybe it's because you have too many intentions. In all fairness, Your Majesty treats you..."

"There is no need to say more." The flowers on the queen's forehead reflected fine light and shadow.

Pushing open the long window, the tuberose and lilac had already decayed, and the entire Ninghua Palace was shrouded in darkness, gloomy and terrifying, only the fragrance of golden chrysanthemums from the imperial garden not far away from the west wind was refreshing.Everything about entering the palace is engraved in Ninghua Palace by time.The queen suddenly recalled many years ago, as if in the 17th year of Xining, when she was only the imperial concubine, on that golden autumn afternoon, she was originally drawing a fine brushwork painting with color on silk, and the palace servants opened the bead curtain to draw a picture. Walk in, and the curtain slowly opens.A game of chess is hard to close, and it is hard to regret.Now that I think about it, I want to regret it, but it's already too late.
