From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 300 Mei Linlang's Trick II
Turning her head back to him, Mei Linlang didn't speak.Even if he changed his name to "I" instead of Zhen, he is no longer the boy she loved wholeheartedly.

The man she loved so much is gone, and her heart has completely died in the past eight years.Now, he is the emperor, and she is just a member of the harem, one of his many women, the imperial concubine Rong.

The young acquaintance knew Mei Linlang's temper well, and the emperor was not angry.On the contrary, if she forgave him immediately and talked to him like before, he would be worried instead.She is a person who has no city and no scheming, and everything in her heart is on her face, and she can never hide what is on her mind.So, her reaction and attitude are normal.

As he held her hand cautiously like in every quarrel in the past, the emperor said earnestly and pitifully: "Lin Lang, I was wrong. What happened back then was that I was sorry for you. Can you forgive me?"

She has a tough personality, it's useless to act recklessly, head-on will only lead to bloodshed.Therefore, it is necessary to use a policy of softness to overcome rigidity with softness.

Mei Linlang touched her hands and avoided it without even thinking about it, then turned her back to him completely, and said with a cold look: "The emperor's words are serious, and my concubine is terrified!"

Instead of being angry, he smiled, seeing that she seemed to be making a temper tantrum, the Emperor cheekily stretched out his hand again.He was quick to catch her, and he didn't allow her to take it away. He said sternly, "Linlang, all mistakes are my fault. I didn't protect you well, and I didn't fulfill my original promise. Linlang, you punish me. For me, you can beat me and scold me, just please don't ignore me. Lin Lang, it's been eight years, how can you be willing, why are you so cruel? Do you know how much I miss you leaving me alone? you."

As he was talking, his heart suddenly ached, and his nose was sore, the emperor couldn't help but hugged her into his arms.In the past eight years, he wanted to go to her countless times and peek at her secretly, but the pride in his bones and the dignity of being an emperor did not allow him to bow his head.He has been waiting for her, has been waiting for her, thinking that as long as she comes, even if she doesn't say a word, he will make up immediately.But who knew that eight years ago, she would rather be bullied in Luomei Palace than come to him. She hated him, and he hated himself too.

The sad and painful voice made Mei Linlang's heart twitch, but soon she became angry.Stretching out her hand to break free from his grip, she gritted her teeth and said, "I'm cruel, I'll leave you behind, you're an emperor and you're shameless. Let go, let me go."

The emperor didn't let go, not only didn't let go, but also hugged him even tighter.

Unable to break free, the wound on his wrist was also in severe pain, Mei Linlang couldn't help but raise her hand and hit him.While beating him, he said: "Are you a rogue, are you a rogue, let me go, let me go."

The emperor's bones ached even from two slaps, but he refused to let go.He hugged her waist tightly, buried his head in her neck, and said like a pig: "Don't let go, once you let go, you won't leave me. Linlang, I was wrong, give me one more time." Is the opportunity good, let's start over, shall we?"

It doesn't matter who is right and who is wrong, what is important is that they are still together, they are still alive, and they love each other deeply.

Mei Linlang cried, big teardrops rolled down the emperor's shoulders, wet the clothes on his shoulders.

The emperor felt it, but he didn't go to see her.Instead, he tightened his arms around her and said, "Lin Lang, it's still the same sentence in a thousand words, I love you, and I want to be with you."

"Whether it's the first emperor or the queen mother, none of them can separate us, and neither can time."

The sentence "I love you" made Mei Linlang's tears flow even more fiercely.Because of these three words, she abandoned her parents, gave up her dreams, and lost everything. Because of these three words, she suffered a lot of grievances, restrained herself and burned oil in the palace by lighting a lamp, and boiled herself dry.But what did she get in the end?

An empty talk!
An empty phrase that is not even a lie!
She was tired, and she was full of scars, she would never believe it again, never again!
What separates us is never time, let alone others, but ourselves.I used to think that the life you said was a lifetime, but I didn't know that it was just three words.

"Linlang, trust me. I will never let you suffer any more. I will protect you. I will fulfill my original promise. I will make you the happiest woman in the world. Linlang, promise me, Promise me, okay?" He didn't know how many eight years he had in his life, but she really couldn't lose her anymore.

Except for her, he had never fallen in love with any woman in his life, nor did he particularly dote on that concubine. To him, the two queens were just wives.Therefore, he wants to be with her he loves, from youth to middle age to old age, and slowly grow old hand in hand day by day.

This is the promise he made to her that he will live and die with her, that he will be with her till the end of life and death.

If this was eight years ago, if she hadn't had that heavy and long nightmare, she would have agreed to him without hesitation, and forgive him regardless of the past.But in the end, she couldn't go back. Eight years in Luomei Palace exhausted all her lovesickness and boiled away all her love, and now all that is left is a shell that wants to protect her family.

She gave him her love, and gave him the best years of her life.So, from now on, she has nothing to give him.

He didn't say yes but nodded, and the emperor was excited just by nodding his head.He seemed to have returned to the time when he first confessed his love to her when he was young, and his whole body was about to float.

I was so excited that I couldn't speak, I could only hug her tightly, and kept hugging her, as if I wanted to make up for all the hugs in the past eight years.

Since she was a child, she hated hypocrisy and pretentious people, hated the tricks of housewives, Mei Linlang never thought that one day she would become one of them.And like them, they use it to manipulate men's hearts, gain favor and then achieve their own goals. Thinking about it, it's really ironic.

Sadness came from my heart, and the tears fell faster and more fiercely.Mei Linlang thought, cry, cry hard, cry heartily, use these tears to mourn the former self, the once hot, strong, pure and beautiful love.

After a while, the emperor couldn't help but wanted to make a more intimate gesture, but was interrupted by Jianchun who came in.I only heard her say: "Report to the emperor, it's time for the empress to drink the medicine."

Frowning deeply and displeased, the emperor turned his head and glared at her and said, "Didn't you just drink the medicine just now, why did you take the medicine again?"

Jianchun was not afraid, and said calmly: "The medicine I drank just now is a tonic, and it is different."

　This baby overestimated himself, the fourth watch was ruined, and the third watch was over, so I have time to make up for it in these two days.Don't scold me, because it's useless to scold me. If you want to ensure the quality, I can't go up at this speed. Alas, run away with your head in your arms!
