The tyrant has a purpose, abolishes the queen and enters the palace

He doesn't know what's wrong with him?Perhaps, it was because she was too condescending. Even if the concubines in the palace were as arrogant as clouds, which one was not gentle and virtuous, obedient to him, obedient to his words, and trying their best to attract his attention?

Only she, Mu Qingwan, resists desperately every time and makes him angry, and men naturally like to conquer, the more resistant a woman is, the more he will arouse his desire to challenge. Perhaps, when she is completely tamed, he will You might think she's boring.

Thinking of this, the feeling of irritability in my heart subsided a little.

The two just hugged each other like this, and neither of them spoke again.

Mu Qingwan tensed her body in fear, fearing that he would suddenly rush towards her with a wild fury, but she was uneasy for a long time, but there was no movement behind her. Although she was surprised at his abnormality tonight, her body slowly relaxed , As soon as the nerves relaxed, drowsiness began to envelope him.

Her physique is inherently cold, especially in winter, even if she sleeps all night, the quilt will be cold when she wakes up in the morning, but today, she didn't feel the slightest bit of cold.

Although she hated him very much, she had to admit that being hugged by him like this was indeed very warm, and she even had a very reassuring feeling, as if as long as she hid in this embrace, she would be able to stop any wind and rain.

As soon as such thoughts flashed through her mind, she laughed at her innocence, how could he protect her from the wind and rain?Such tenderness is just an illusion.

Now, they just take advantage of each other, and even hate each other.

When she leaves the palace, the two of them will be like two parallel lines, and they will never meet again.

I was thinking about something vaguely in my mind, and I didn't know when I fell asleep.

Her breathing became slow and long, and Xia Houlie knew that she was asleep, so he turned her around to face him, and hugged her a little tighter involuntarily.

In the middle of the night, Mu Qingwan vaguely felt something wriggling around her from time to time, it was not obvious at first, but later she felt that there was indeed movement.

She opened her eyes suddenly, and looked to the side by the moonlight outside, and it really was Xia Houlie who was moving.

What's wrong with this man?

She was about to get up to light the lamp, but the man grabbed her hand, "Did you wake up?"

Mu Qingwan rolled her eyes, and said angrily: "You don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you doing?"

Xia Houlie didn't speak, but the big hand that was holding her quickly retracted. Through the moonlight, Mu Qingwan saw that his clothes were already messed up, and her hands kept touching her body. Mu Qingwan couldn't see Knowing exactly what was on him, a little inexplicable, hurriedly lifted the quilt to light the lamp.

The room lit up, and she walked back to the bed to see Xia Houlie, only then did she know the reason for his convulsions, and she was surprised to see his body covered in red marks: "Are you allergic to animal hair?"

No wonder he hated Ruxue so much, no wonder he wanted to change all the bedding, but unfortunately, he missed her who had hugged Ruxue before.

It's just that since he is allergic to animals, why didn't he say it earlier?When I asked him just now, he was still stubborn! !

Xia Houlie glanced at her angrily, turned around and continued to scratch, seeing that he was obviously uncomfortable but still insisted on not speaking, Mu Qingwan couldn't help laughing anymore.

Unexpectedly, a tough tyrant would have such a deflated side. This is really a wonder in the world.

But just when she was halfway through laughing, she was interrupted by someone's vicious voice, "You are not allowed to hug that damn dog again!"

Knowing that he is not easy to mess with, but she really couldn't help but want to laugh. Mu Qingwan endured so much hard work, but she shouted to relieve her hatred. Speaking of which, she really had to thank Ruxue for avenging her. It seems that this man didn't He was so invulnerable and invulnerable in his imagination, but he turned out to be just an ordinary person.

But letting him scratch like this is not an option, although he is really in need of a beating at ordinary times, but considering his good performance last night, she just forced the strong to ignore the villain.

"Stop scratching, I'll apply some medicine to relieve itching and reduce swelling, and you'll be fine soon."

She tried her best to suppress her smile, found the medicine from the cabinet, walked to him and sat down.

He didn't object, and let her take off his clothes. Although it wasn't the first time he saw his bare|naked chest, she still blushed when she stared at him like this.

The blush on her face pleased him inexplicably, seeing the narrow smile on the corner of his mouth, she blushed even more, suddenly became angry and threw the medicine into his arms, "Take the medicine by yourself, I'm very sleepy, I'm going to sleep. "

"Mu Qingwan, you have become more courageous." How dare you treat him like this.

She turned her head angrily, "You're such an old man, do you even need someone to wait for you to apply medicine?"

"Aren't you an adult too? Then why did you have to wait on me when you had a fever last time?" He retorted.

"Who asked you to..." serve?

Finally, she swallowed the last three words under his icy gaze. She snatched the medicine bottle, dipped her fingers in the ointment, and rubbed it on heavily, without mercy.

It's best to hurt him to death, and see if he dares to let her serve him!

She was cursing, but the man next to her snorted comfortably, "Well, the strength is just right, keep it up."

Mu Qingwan was speechless, she didn't want him to be so complacent, but she couldn't find a way to make him feel uncomfortable.

I can't help but regret that I am such a bad person, why should I let him tickle to death just now!

Indignantly giving him good medicine, she washed her hands angrily, then lay down on the bed with her back to him, still puzzled, she simply covered her head with the quilt, trying to keep out of sight.

After a while, she felt a little suffocated, but she just didn't want to come out until the quilt was pulled from the outside, "Do you want to suffocate yourself?"

Mu Qingwan didn't move or speak, and let him pull the quilt. Seeing her like this, Xia Houlie sighed and helped her cover the quilt.

His helpless sigh made Mu Qingwan's body stiff. She didn't know what happened to Xia Houlie tonight. It stands to reason that if it was him in normal times and she lost her temper like this, he would definitely treat her badly. "Extreme means", but today he just looked at her and sighed.

Why?Has his temper changed?But just now he threatened her so viciously to kill Ruxue.

Is it really a convulsion?Well, that makes sense. With this man's unpredictable personality, he might turn his back on him tomorrow.

The quilt moved again, and then, a fiery body came close and hugged her in her arms again, knowing that struggling was useless, she didn't bother to resist him, but let him hold her quietly.

Her obedience made him hook his lips in satisfaction, and the two stopped talking.

Today is the night of the full moon, and the moon outside the window is very big and bright, which reminds Mu Qingwan of her relatives far away in the south, as well as Hengzhi, and she doesn't know what happened to them.

She opened her eyes and looked at the bright moon quietly, and then slowly watched it transform into countless figures in front of her eyes, including the father, the mother, the constant, and the master...

Memories of the past slipped through her mind bit by bit, and her expression was rendered sad and hazy by the moonlight. If she could, she wished she could still be the carefree Mu Qingwan before.

But everything can't go back, she is no longer that simple Mu Qingwan, in this strange palace, facing those enemies hiding in the dark and staring at her, she must take every step carefully so that she can Stay safe until the day you leave the palace.

I don't know how long she stared at the moonlight, she closed her eyes until she felt a little sore, and was about to fall asleep, when a man's deep voice came from her ear:

"Are you really sure of curing the imperial grandmother's illness?"

Hearing this, her anger was provoked again, and she couldn't help turning her head and yelling at him sullenly: "If grandma can't be cured by then, I'll bring my head up to see the head office, right?"

After yelling at her, she realized that she seemed to be overstepping the rules again. Why can't she control her temper?It's all the fault of this stinky man, every time he has the ability to provoke her into a rage.

I was cursing in my heart, waiting carefully for him to lose his temper, but after waiting for a long time, I didn't notice any movement from him, his breathing was long and long, could it be that he fell asleep?

"It really is a pervert!" She cursed in a low voice, turned around and continued to sleep.

Just as he closed his eyes, his voice suddenly sounded from behind him again, not as cold as before, but with a hint of tenderness: "I will trust you just once."

Mu Qingwan's body froze, wondering if he heard what she scolded him just now? !

Noticing her stiffness, he sighed again.

She turned around in a daze to look at the man behind her, only to see that he had closed his eyes, and the moonlight shone on his chiseled face, making him look as elegant as a banished fairy. Only then did Mu Qingwan know that this man When the man is not angry, he is so good-looking, even prettier than Heng Zhi.

Noticing her gaze, he didn't open his eyes, but just stretched his hand over her head, and pressed a light kiss on her forehead, "Go to sleep."

Mu Qingwan stared at him blankly, a little puzzled, but she couldn't tell what was weird. After a long time, she finally couldn't hold back the deep sleepiness and fell asleep.

It was a rare good night's sleep. When Mu Qingwan woke up, the place where Xia Houlie had slept beside her was already cold. She lay on the bed with her eyes open, and Xia Houlie's tenderness last night was like a dream.

Maybe if you follow him, he won't be so difficult to provoke, so that when the time comes to leave the palace, you will be able to retreat unscathed.

After these days, she is no longer that Mu Qingwan who just arrived in Beiyan, and she will never make fun of her body for a moment of gamble, save her own life, and escape from this cage at that time.

And now that she has signed an agreement with Xia Houlie, the day when she will leave the palace is just around the corner. It is completely different from the previous situation of being like a chicken without a head. There is really no need to provoke him and add trouble to herself, as long as she lives in a safe and stable manner. After this time, you will be free soon.

Thinking of this, she made up her mind that as long as he doesn't challenge her bottom line, she can get along peacefully with him.

"Miss, you are awake."

Just as Mu Qingwan was about to get up, Bi Ying and Mo Ge pushed the door open and walked in.

"Yeah." Mu Qingwan was in a great mood because she had figured out many things.

Seeing her happy look, Mo Ge blinked curiously: "Ma'am, what's so happy about it? Is it because of the emperor?"

Last night, the emperor finally came to Changxin Palace again, and he was so happy that the slaves below kept burning incense and worshiping Buddha, because Mu Qingwan fell out of favor, and even the servants like them were looked down upon everywhere, and they only hoped that their master could get By grace, so that they can speak in front of the servants of the other palace.

Mu Qingwan naturally knows the grievances they have suffered, but Xiahou Lie's uncertainty is beyond her control, and she also hates him very much, so naturally she doesn't want him to come to Changxin Palace, and she doesn't want to have a relationship with him. So I can only say sorry to them in my heart, and take care of them more materially on weekdays.

Hearing what Mo Ge said, she hurriedly spat embarrassedly: "Little girl, what are you talking about?"

Bi Ying giggled, and joked, "Your Majesty is blushing."

"You two hoofs, I will find you a husband and marry them tomorrow, so as not to annoy me in front of me." Mu Qingwan scolded with a smile, took the veil Mo Ge handed over and cleaned her face.

Hearing what she said, the two maids hurriedly begged for mercy, "Your Majesty, please don't want us, we don't dare to tease Your Majesty anymore."

The three chatted and laughed for a while, and when Mu Qingwan had breakfast, she was about to go out for a walk with Ruxue in her arms, when she saw a palace lady in a green shirt walk in.

"The slave girl Qingran kowtowed to the empress, the empress is a thousand years old!"

"Get up." Mu Qingwan waved her hand lightly. If you read correctly, this maid is the Queen Mother Yun's personal maid.

"Thank you, Madam." Qingran stood up and said respectfully, "Empress Empress, today is the beginning of winter, and the Empress Dowager specially sent slaves over to invite you to the Hall of Compassion."

beginning of winter?The beginning of winter is so fast, so to speak, she has been in Beiyan for nearly a month, time flies really fast.

Since ancient times, the beginning of winter has been a big festival. On this day, the ancient emperors had the ceremony of going out of the suburbs to welcome the winter, and had the system of giving winter clothes to all the ministers, pity and widows.

And Beiyan is no exception. In addition to gathering and drinking in the whole palace, the emperor will cooperate with the empress to lead civil and military officials to set up altars in the northern suburbs of the capital to pray for good weather and peace of the country and people.

Under the grand invitation of the Empress Dowager, the royal heirs and all the empresses and concubines went to the Hall of Compassion, and even the Empress Dowager Su Hanzhi, who lived in seclusion on weekdays, came with illness, which shows how grand the banquet was.

In addition to the empress dowager, empress dowager Yun and the emperor, concubines and concubines, there were two concubines present at the banquet—the dignified and gentle concubine He and the charming concubine Chen, and two uncles—Prince Gong and Concubine Chen. Prince Zhong.

Then there are several brothers and sisters of Xiahou Lie. In addition to Zhaohe, there are three county kings and two married princesses.

However, what surprised Mu Qingwan was that Yun Lanshan came with his family and sat on the seat with the Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager Yun, and Xia Houlie. This move did not arouse anyone's doubts. It's commonplace.

Logically speaking, even if Yun Lanshan is the empress dowager's elder brother and Concubine Yun's father, he is a foreign relative and would not normally invite such a family banquet, and his arrival is undoubtedly to tell others that he, Yun family, is quite For a part of this orthodox royal family.

Aside from the fact that she met the Empress Dowager in private, this time, it was the first time she met the Empress Dowager, so when the Empress Dowager introduced her to Concubine Chu, she only kept Su Hanzhi Maintain a detached and respectful attitude so as not to arouse suspicion.

The banquet officially started, and there was a lot of excitement during the banquet.

Because Concubine Yun is pregnant with the emperor's heir, she is naturally the focus of everyone's attention at the banquet. Besides, her father is also there, her aunt is also there, and even Xia Houlie is there to take good care of her. Compared to her, she is an inconspicuous queen. too much.

Mu Qingwan never liked this kind of banquet, and she didn't know those people well, so she didn't participate in the conversation, and kept eating with her head down, keeping a decent smile on her face. At that moment, there was some warmth on his face, and these were undoubtedly noticed by Xia Houlie.

After all, the banquet was finally coming to an end. Mu Qingwan was about to breathe a sigh of relief when she suddenly heard Queen Mother Yun asking Xiahou Lie to take Concubine Yun to the northern suburbs to sacrifice.

"The Ai family also knows that the sacrificial ceremony should be held by the emperor and the empress as a rule, but now that Luoer is pregnant with the emperor's heir, her identities are different after all, so she went to sacrifice to the ancestors together. Maybe the ancestors would see her sincerity and bless her for the sake of her. Our royal family has added a young man, and from then on, our Beiyan Dynasty will have successors." After speaking, she turned to Su Hanzhi respectfully and said, "Queen, what do you think?"

Yunluo was elated when she heard the words, if she could go to sacrifice, her status would be comparable to that of Mu Qingwan, so she hurriedly looked at Su Hanzhi expectantly.

Su Hanzhi's complexion was very bad because of her illness, she coughed twice and said: "Zhaolan has been on the throne for two years, Youxu, now that Yunluo is pregnant with the emperor's heir, she should be special, you can figure it out."

The Empress Dowager Yun couldn't help being overjoyed when she heard the words, and hurriedly ordered: "In that case, just do as the Ai family said. Luoer, you have to be more sincere later, and don't disappoint everyone's hearts."

Yunluo nodded shyly, and exchanged a glance with Yun Lanshan, whose eyes were full of pride and complacency.

It was the first time for Mu Qingwan to see Yunlan Mountain. He was about fifty years old, with a thin body, long beard, piercing eyes, and he was not angry.

While observing, Yun Lanshan seemed to feel someone watching, turned his head, and shot him with eagle-like eyes.

Mu Qingwan stared at such cold eyes, then smiled politely, and turned away as if nothing had happened.

Seeing her turning her gaze away so naturally, Yun Lanshan was taken aback. Ordinary people were stared at by him, either obediently looked away, or were too frightened to move, this woman was quite different. generally.

Mu Qingwan turned her face away, but she could still feel the oppressive feeling coming from the other side of Yunlan Mountain, and she felt irritated, but she couldn't do anything to him, and was feeling uncomfortable when Xia Houlie's voice sounded from the side:

"It's getting late, and all civil and military officials must be waiting at the gate of the palace. Prime Minister, why don't we leave earlier?"

Xia Houlie's words were like sounds of nature to Mu Qingwan today, and soon, she felt the sight of the blade staring at her disappear, Yun Lanshan stood up, cupped his hands at Xia Houlie and said:

"The old minister obeys the order."

A group of people left the Hall of Compassion and Ning, and went straight to the palace gate.

At the gate of the palace, the civil and military officials were already waiting by the side, and the sedan chairs were ready to stop. Xia Houlie's dragon chariot was in the front row, followed by the queen's phoenix chariot, followed by the civil and military officials' sedan chairs and horse mounts.

Xia Houlie hugged Yunluo horizontally, and carried her onto his dragon chariot, his movements were gentle and cautious, as if he was treating a rare treasure.

At this moment, Yunluo has a sweet smile on her face, which is even more beautiful against her delicately made-up little face.

The picture is so harmonious, they really are a pair of lovers.

Mu Qingwan wanted to laugh, no matter how she looked at this situation, she looked like a third party, but how innocent she was as a third party.

Yun Lanshan on the side was very satisfied, and couldn't help looking at Mu Qingwan. She felt his gaze, and although she was extremely reluctant, she still nodded and smiled, then walked to the front of the phoenix chariot, and got into the sedan chair on the hand of the maid. chariot.

The convoy set off quickly, and when they passed the official road, the people on both sides shouted like a tsunami: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live, and empress."

This kind of battle made Mu Qingwan unconsciously think of the situation when Qianlong brought the little swallow to sacrifice to the sky when watching "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", but Qianlong brought a fake Ge Ge back then, but today Xia Houlie brought a nameless one. Queen.

But even though it felt weird, she was very happy to be able to leave the palace. She could finally breathe the fresh air outside.

Stretching out the curtain of the car, the ancient market comes into view, looking at the crowds around, the shops in front of you, the smoke rising from the roofs of the houses not far away, and the simple smiling faces crowded towards the sedan chair , Mu Qingwan's eyes swelled for a moment.

It's only been a long time since she entered the palace, and when she left the palace again, she felt as if she had been a lifetime away.

Now, she can no longer roam the streets unscrupulously like before, and can only peek at the free life she wants through this small window, like a caged bird.

"Here." While in a daze, a snow-white handkerchief appeared in front of her.

Mu Qingwan was startled, and when she looked up, it turned out to be Zhaohe. At this moment, there was no smile on his bright face, and he just looked at her with a complicated expression.

With a cold face on her face, she realized that she was actually crying. She forced a smile, and said a little embarrassedly, "Sand was blown into my eyes just now."

Zhaohe smiled lightly, and did not expose her lame lies, but just raised the handkerchief on his hand, "Wipe it quickly, it's not good for Brother Huang to see it later."

Mu Qingwan thought about it too, thanked her and took it over, wiped away her tears, and after crying, she felt much better.

Zhaohe rode the horse and followed her sedan chair all the time, pointing to the surrounding scenery to introduce her to her from time to time, and told her some folk customs of Beiyan. After playing enough at Beiyan, I will go elsewhere.

When they arrived at the imperial mausoleum on the outskirts of the city, Mu Qingwan followed Xiahou Lie to worship the ancestors of Xiahou's family, and then went to the nearby Nanfo Temple to set up an altar to worship heaven.

Nanfo Temple is a royal temple, and the incense is at its peak. Today is Lidong, and many people in the capital are rushing to come to offer incense. Xiahou Lie has long told the abbot not to disturb the people, so there is a lot of traffic in front of Nanfo Temple.

After the sacrifice to the sky, an eminent monk was arranged to set up an altar for them to give lectures. Mu Qingwan was not interested in these, so she quietly slipped out from behind.

Just now, she changed her clothes and took a shower before offering sacrifices, so now that she is dressed in white, she can't be seen as a high-ranking queen at all, but is as simple and elegant as the daughter of an ordinary family.

Such a dress makes her feel relaxed, and she can finally be herself again.

Walking through several corridors leisurely all the way, and came to the front of the Daxiong Palace, Mu Qingwan shuttled among the crowds of pilgrims, feeling their excitement.

Suddenly, a familiar figure came into view...
