Nagato has such a slim waist

When Pei Jue came back, Feng Yun was sitting on a soft chair under the camphor tree with his eyes narrowed, staring at the thick dark clouds in the sky in a daze.

The fragrance of flowers in the yard brought by the wind is very pleasant.

The man's footsteps were extremely light. He put his arms around her from behind, carefully tightening her waist. His breath gently fell on her ear, and he gave her a light kiss, speaking in a low and slow tone.

"Zuo said, you're not feeling well?"

Feng Yun looked back at him and responded with a faint smile.

"I just felt a little dizzy after sitting for too long. It's nothing serious. Don't listen to what the kid says."

Pei Jue raised the corner of his mouth and hummed softly.

"Then don't sit outside for too long. I'll carry you back."

At this time of year, the scenery in the yard is the most pleasant at dusk when the sun sets. Feng Yun likes to sit here, eat something, and read lazily.

But she did not object, and it was too late for her to object, as Pei Jue had already picked her up and carried her sideways.

Pei Jue had just come out of the palace and had not had time to change his clothes. He was wearing a long-sleeved dragon robe that fluttered with his steps, looking majestic and elegant.

He has been running around the palace lately, and his daily life is still the same as when he was the regent. Feng Yun didn't know if the court officials had any objections, but she felt that it was a bit awkward.

How could there be an emperor who didn’t live in the palace?
She put her arms around Pei Jue's neck and said with a smile:

"If you are busy with court affairs, you don't have to come back every day."

Pei Cong lowered his eyebrows, "Chasing me away?"

Feng Yun smiled, eyes as bright as water, and said gently, "The whole world belongs to the king. This house belongs to your majesty. How dare I chase you away?"

Pei Jue frowned slightly.

Recently, the two of them have been getting along privately and everything is the same as before. He doesn't really like Feng Yun calling him that. The word "Your Majesty" seems to have cut a long gap between them.

Feng Yun noticed the unhappiness in his eyes, stretched out his hands to pull his face to both sides, and said unhappily: "For the sake of your body, you are still not happy? You are already an emperor, why are you going backwards as you get older?"

Pei Jue suddenly stopped, looked down at her, tightened his arms slightly, and lifted Feng Yun up gently.

"Yunniang has become fat, why can't I change?"

Fat?

Feng Yun rolled his eyes and said, "Nonsense!"

She was not someone who would easily gain weight, nor did she want to admit that she was fat. She patted Pei Jue's arm in amusement, and when she was about to speak again, Pei Jue had already gently placed her on the soft couch in front of the window.

He said, "It's not very hot yet, don't try to stay cool. Isn't it better to sit here and read a book than to sit in the yard?"

"Yes, yes, your Majesty is right." Feng Yun responded, glancing at him slowly, "Strange, are you so free today? You came back so early, and you showed me the emperor's grace..."

Pei Jue held her hand and pursed his lips slightly, "Are you blaming me for neglecting you recently, Yunniang?"

Feng Yun stared at him intently.

He has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and is extremely heroic.

This is the new emperor of the Dayong Dynasty, above all others.

Power can bring everything to a man, even his appearance.

Pei Jue's face seemed to be even more handsome than before, even his eyes were intoxicating, and the majesty he exuded from within was so strong that people dared not look directly at him...

Feng Yun sighed slightly.

"Pei Gou, you are not honest."

Pei Cong: “?”

Feng Yun curled her lips.

Of course, she was embarrassed to say that a man was too handsome and would make her heart beat faster and her soul unable to settle down, so she just found an excuse and teased him with a smile.

"Your Majesty has become more handsome recently. But there is a new beauty in the imperial palace, who is very popular with you?"

Pei Jue lowered his head, looked at Feng Yun for a moment, and silently kissed the back of her hand, his voice gentle and warm.

"It seems I have to spend more time staying in the mansion with you."

Feng Yun couldn't help laughing when he saw that he was being serious. "Aren't you afraid that people would say that you indulged in pleasures in the boudoir right after ascending the throne?"

Pei Jue snorted, "If anyone dares to be so rude, I will warn him..."

Feng Yun was puzzled when she saw his strange expression.

"What are you telling him?"

Pei Jue said: "Tell him: you are right."

Feng Yun was startled and punched his shoulder with a smile. Pei Jue tightened his arms and leaned over to kiss her. He was very good at pestering her and Feng Yun suddenly felt short of breath and quickly pushed him away.

"I don't feel well today."

Pei Jue kissed her lips soothingly, stopped teasing her, put a pillow under her waist, and then sat down to talk to her.

As the new emperor ascended the throne, he made drastic reforms to the government. The people and things in the court changed with each passing day, faster than the changing of the world. If Pei Cong didn't say anything, Feng Yun would never mention it on his own initiative.

Today I saw him come back early, and we had tea and chatted. While we were free, I immediately told him all the little thoughts in my mind.

"There's something I've wanted to ask you for a long time, but I don't know if it's convenient for you to ask me."

Pei Jue looked at her hesitant eyes, his dark eyes lit up, "You ask."

Feng Yun asked, "After you ascend the throne, is it inconvenient for Li Sangruo to still live in the palace?"

Pei Jue's expression changed slightly.

He thought Feng Yun would ask about the matter of establishing a queen...

There was an uproar in the government and the country, but the real boss remained unmoved.

"No." He said sullenly.

Feng Yun raised his eyebrows and laughed softly, "Since you think there is no inconvenience in putting a queen mother from the previous dynasty in the palace, then you can only blame me for being nosy."

"I mean, she doesn't live in the palace." Pei Jue said.

Feng Yun was very surprised. "She is not in the palace. Where did she go?"

After a pause, he frowned in confusion and asked with a half-smile, "Could it be that you really gave her the title of the eldest princess and let her leave the palace to set up her own residence?"

Pei Jue glanced at her coldly.

"She asked to become a nun."

"What?" Feng Yun was very surprised. "When did it happen?"

"Today." Pei Jue lowered his eyelids slightly, as if afraid that she would see his emotions, and his expression did not change at all. "I went to Huixin Hall, hoping that the ancient Buddha and the green lamps could help her see her true nature."

Feng Yun narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at his expression.

"Did she really volunteer?"

Pei Jue pursed his lips and sighed slightly after a while.

“This is the best destination for her.”

The best destination?

Pei Jue thought so, but Feng Yun didn't think so. Li Sangruo, if she could just end her life like this, it would be too easy.

But according to her personality, it is impossible for her to see her true nature. She must have felt like she was living a year in a day. She used to have a lover by her side, but now she is all alone. How can she bear the loneliness?
She smiled, said nothing, leaned her body on Pei Jue's chest, slowly closed her eyes, and let out a faint smile.

"Your Majesty, the important matter has been resolved. I am uncomfortable sitting idle in Xijing. I will simply return to Andu in two days."

Pei Cong looked down at her and said, "Okay."

He agreed very readily, so readily that Feng Yun became a little suspicious.

She didn't dare to say anything else, but Pei Jue never liked her leaving his side...

Especially since he is different from the past, he is the ruler of a country now. When the two of them are together, although he has not yet developed the habit of being a ruler, how could his emotions change?
Feng Yun had many questions, but she was too sleepy.

Without time to ask anything, she just lay on Pei Jue's chest, letting him hug her waist, and slowly fell asleep.
-
Since May, she has been a little sleepy. Feng Yun feels that she has nothing to do. There are few people in the Pei Mansion, the housework is simple, and Pei Yuan is in charge, so she doesn't need to worry about anything...

After staying for a few more days, she could no longer sit still, so she told her servants to pack up and prepare to return to Andu.

"My lady, my lady..."

Xiaoman came in happily with a bunch of half-ripened flowers from the garden in her hands and told her:

"Madam, do you know that something serious has happened?"

Feng Yun yawned and glanced at her.

"Tell me, what gossip have you heard?"

Xiao Man snorted coquettishly, "But this is not gossip. It's been rumored that Empress Dowager Li asked to become a nun and shaved her head to become a nun in Huixin Hall..."

Xiaoman's happiness is visible to the naked eye.

But Feng Yun had known the news, so she was calm at the moment. "She left her home, why are you so happy?" Xiao Man said, and honestly restrained her smile, and secretly glanced at her.

"Madam, don't you want to see what Queen Mother Li looks like with her hair shaved off?"

Feng Yun gathered her clothes lazily and glanced at her, "Do you want to see it?"

Xiaoman nodded desperately and vigorously.

"Yes. The maid wants to go. Huan'er, Pei'er and the others also want to go! Huan'er said that Empress Dowager Li has a pointy head and will be extremely ugly without hair!"

Feng Yun glanced at her speechlessly.

"Is this what you usually say?"

"We also said..." Xiaoman glanced at her, "We usually say that it would be great if we could call you the Queen someday. We pay our respects to the Queen, wishing you good health, happiness, good luck, and a long life..."

Feng Yun chuckled and narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly.

"Shut up now. Before we go back to Andu, I'll take you to visit some old friends in the nunnery, so you can broaden your horizons and see for yourself..."

Xiaoman and Huan'er looked at each other, smiled and saluted.

"Thank you for your help, ma'am."
-
Huixin Hall is located on the hillside of a mountain called Cuiyun Peak, thirty miles outside of Xijing City.

What Feng Yun didn't expect was that not only Li Sangruo, but also many concubines from the previous dynasty were sent here.

However, others "kept their hair to practice Buddhism", but Li Sangruo "asked to become a nun". Other concubines did not need to shave their heads, but she shaved off her long black hair.

She is not yet thirty years old.

You are so young, and you are going to spend the rest of your life in this dilapidated temple?
Pei Cong is too cruel.

It's too cruel.

There was no mirror in the nunnery, so Li Sangruo looked at himself without hair in the water in the washbasin.

Smooth scalp, shaved cleanly, but still has some short prickles to the touch.

She is not used to it yet, very not used to it.

Angry, she subconsciously poked the basin with her finger.

The water rippled slightly.

The thin reflection swayed on the water, just like her wandering life...

Li Sangruo smiled.

Facing the washbasin.

He also smiled crazily at his reflection in the basin...

A breeze passed through the window, blowing on her blue-gray monk's robe, which was wide at the waist and sleeves. In the silence, footsteps came from far away and stopped at the door.

The place where Li Sangruo lived was the most secluded place in the nunnery.

She had a palace maid named Meixiang with her, but she was not the one who obeyed her. Instead, she was the one assigned by Tang Shaogong to serve her.

Li Sangruo turned around at the sound of the door being pushed open, and saw Tang Shaogong coming in. He saw Meixiang retreating with her head lowered, and his expression changed immediately.

Cold, as if filled with resentment.

"What are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at me?"

Tang Shaogong stood in front of her without saying a word, staring at her with cold eyes.

"Get out. Get out now!" Li Sangruo pushed his hands to his chest, his voice trembling with pent-up anger.

"Get out! Get out of here!"

Normally, Tang Shaogong would not have bothered with her.

If we don't agree, he'll just turn around and walk away without saying a single extra word.

But he didn't leave today.

He looked at Li Sangruo with pity in his eyes, and watched her, being forced to retreat step by step by her, but he remained calm.

It was not until his back hit the wall and he had nowhere to retreat that he slowly reached out, grabbed Li Sangruo's arms, and signaled her to calm down.

"Before I go, let me talk to you."

Li Sangruo sneered.

Those eyes flashed coldly, as if they contained a knife.

"Don't be so hypocritical. If it weren't for you, how could Pei Jue treat me like this? He has ascended the throne and become the emperor. I should be with him now, enjoying the glory and wealth in Xijing City, instead of coming here..."

She glanced around in dissatisfaction, her eyes sharp and almost crazy, "Look here, is this where people live? Does it look like a place where people live?"

"All of this is due to you. It's all your fault. Do you know how humble my life is now... so humble that I would rather... I had never lived..."

"Do you understand? I would rather die than live here."

"Tang Shaogong, send me back, send me back!"

"I want to see Pei Jue! I want to see Pei Jue!"

The empress dowager who ruled the country ended up like this.

Li Sangruo couldn't understand his fate and hated everyone.

She stared at Tang Shaogong fiercely, begging and insulting him one sentence after another.

"What's the use of you as a man? You got me, but you don't even have a way to protect me. You don't deserve it, you don't deserve it...coward, bastard!"

Tang Shaogong pursed his lips slightly, and the trace of pity in his eyes disappeared completely, the warmth disappeared, and was replaced by bone-chilling indifference.

"In that case, I will grant you your wish."

His voice was cold and without any warmth. He slowly put his arms around Li Sangruo's waist, lowered his head, and sprayed his cold breath on Li Sangruo's fair neck...

"You asked for it."

Li Sangruo subconsciously shrank her neck, her hands and feet felt cold...

The moment she sensed the danger, many thoughts ran through her mind.

"Help!"

The cry for help was just instinct...

Unfortunately, Tang Shaogong's dagger was too fast.

Before she could even finish her cry, the tip of the knife pierced diagonally into her abdomen...

Li Sangruo frowned in pain, looked at the blood gushing out from his waist and abdomen in disbelief, and slowly raised his eyes.

"why?"

"I'll help you."

"No...you are mean...you are afraid that Pei Jue will know...you slept with me...he will kill you..."

Tang Shaogong sneered, his eyes red.

"I killed you because you are too dirty... You have tarnished the reputation of the Xie family and the master..."

Li Sangruo's eyes widened, "What did you say..."

"That's right. You are the daughter of the Xie family, and you always have been." Tang Shaogong stared at her coldly, "It's a pity that Pei Jue won't hear it..."

Li Sangruo's eyes were unfocused, wide open with reluctance, his face was pale and dead.

Tang Shaogong had been misleading her all along, making her think that "Xie's daughter" was just a temporary measure, a lie Tang Shaogong used to deceive Pei Cong's trust.

"Why did you...lie to me?"

"Because..." Tang Shaogong remained calm, and the fierce murderous intent in his eyes became more and more intense, as if he could pierce her at any time.

"You do not deserve."

flutter!
Tang Shaogong stretched his arm forward.

Li Sangruo spat out a mouthful of blood.

Just at this moment, Meixiang's voice was heard from outside.

"Your Highness is still taking a nap... Please wait a moment, I will go and report..."

Li Sangruo couldn't hear what was said next.

But Tang Shaogong's face in front of him changed color.
-
"what!"

Meixiang's screams echoed throughout the nunnery.

Feng Yun and Xiaoman looked at each other, walked forward, pulled away the trembling Meixiang, stepped over the threshold, and walked towards the woman lying in a pool of blood.

"Xiaoman, save people." (End of this chapter)
