Evil Phoenix: The Queen's Good Conspiracy

Chapter 55 Makeover (2)
Su Muqing smiled happily, and Liu Huirong also smiled without the slightest distraction. These two women who used to fight life and death were finally able to dance together at this moment.

The fingertips are lifted lightly, like flowing water, like a green magpie; the long hair is flying like floating yarn, like sea waves.They looked at each other and smiled, their eyes no longer had the hostility of the past, but were more clear and gentle.

This kind of dance is fascinating, accompanied by the flying flowers and leaves, like a dream, as if it will never stop.

Many years later, when Liu Huirong, who got married again and had a child, recalled this dance with old eyes, she would still dance alone under the tree. Every time the child asked: "Why is mother so happy when she dances alone?", she would smile and caress. Looking at the child's head, he said, "Here is the best memory of my mother's life."

After a long time, the night dance finally ended after the two were exhausted.

Mu Qing sat quietly on the ground, while Liu Huirong lay on her lap, sometimes rubbing the fallen leaves on the ground with her fingertips, and sometimes covering her eyes with a light smile.Such and such, it looks like sisters who have a very good relationship on weekdays, and no one can see the life-and-death struggle between them.

When everything returned to calm again, Mu Qing leaned back against the tree, slid her fingertips into Liu Huirong's hair, smoothed it gently as if comforting, then looked at the vast sky, and said lightly: "It's almost time."

Liu Huirong lowered her eyes quietly, knowing that Su Muqing would leave this cold palace soon.She thought, maybe tomorrow morning, she will be the only one left in this place full of lunatics, and she... will also slowly become crazy like them, and then be forever forgotten in this cold palace.Although she had made such preparations when she entered the palace, once she really got to this point, she still couldn't help but feel shuddering.The crazy self must be a woman with teeth and claws that people dare not approach.She couldn't help laughing at herself, then closed her eyes, and sighed softly without saying a word.

Mu Qing looked down at the subtle changes on Liu Huirong's face, as if she had read her mind.She raised her head to look at the lonely night sky, she was also silent like her, only her hair was attached to her face, it was especially cold today.

For a woman in the harem, if she dies in the cold palace, poison, or buried with her, she will not get much love in her life, only some illusory things are left.And the most important thing is that their existence, apart from multiplying, will not make any contribution to this world, and they only have children left by instinct.

How should I put it... I feel inexplicably, a little sad.

The voice gradually fell into silence, only the sound of the wind was still lingering in my ears.The lunatics who came out to watch saw that no one was dancing anymore, so they all went back to their rooms one after another. From time to time, they could still see a few beauties dancing their fat waists a few times based on memory.Judging from their looks, they should all be beautiful and talented women when they were still favored by the late emperor.At that time, no one would have thought that their ending would be like this.

Mu Qing closed her eyes and began to hold her breath quietly.Waiting for the person who will come as promised in the near future.

But the consequences were unexpected. After an hour or so passed, several dark shadows gradually appeared in the courtyard of the Leng Palace.One of them was strong and vigorous, while the other was a little hesitant.Although the two were similar in stature, Mu Qing could tell at a glance which one was the trembling one.So he couldn't help covering his lips and chuckling, showing more love and affection.Almost at the same time, a low, familiar voice full of dissatisfaction echoed above them, "Su Muqing, what are you laughing at. The king is here to pick you up."

Mu Qing raised the corners of her lips, cleared her throat, and then looked at the person coming.Liu Huirong also froze, and suddenly got up from Mu Qing and blinked her eyes to this side. She rubbed her eyes, and then shouted in surprise: "Qi...Brother Qi?!"

Thinking of Beitang Qi never walking with her after Xiaoyue Palace was burned down, Liu Huirong was inexplicably embarrassed, always felt that the impression she gave Bei Tangqi afterwards must be a bad one.But Beitang Qi didn't seem to have thought of that, and then frowned, moved the black cloth on his face upwards, and said impatiently: "How do you know it's me?"

Regarding his question, Mu Qing just smiled, but Liu Huirong answered with a puzzled face: "You can usually tell. Brother Qi didn't even pick up the crown."

Beitang Qi was stunned, stretched out his hand to touch it, his face froze immediately, and immediately began to take off the crown in a hurry, at the same time he murmured: "It's over, it's over, isn't it recognized all the way?"

Mu Qing shook her head, and said in a soft voice: "You're in the dark, usually no one will look at you." After finishing speaking, she smiled happily.

"You—!" Beitang Qi gasped, and then continued, "If I had known you would make this request, this king would not have bet with you at that time. It's terrible." He was depressed, but Mu Qing asked Lu smiled, "I am willing to admit defeat. For this gamble, I also drank a cup of medicine that I don't know what makes my whole body painful."

Thinking of the incident against Su Muqing at the Imperial Hospital that day, Bei Tangqi himself felt a little naive.He was a little embarrassed, cleared his throat vigorously, and then muttered in a low voice: "Who knows that the woman with the same face is not the same person, and you didn't tell me."

"Really!" Liu Huirong became excited when she heard that, and then squinted at Su Muqing, "I didn't know you were not that woman, so we can't blame us for all the injuries."

"Bah! This king is much kinder than you." Beitang Qi was dissatisfied.

"Bah bah! You are more childish than me, don't forget that you robbed me of pastries!"

……

These two people seem to be addicted to quarreling, in a sense, Mu Qing really thinks that they are similar in temperament.Mu Qing smiled helplessly, although her face was helpless, but because of their jokes and teasing, she burst into smiles, and her mood became much brighter.

But having said that, Beitang Qi is indeed still Beitang Qi, although his temperament is a little rash, but his nerves are strong enough and optimistic.The matter between her and Wan'er must have been explained to him by Shangguan Yu, and now Beitang Qi accepted it so calmly, which made her feel at ease.

After a while, Bei Tangqi, who was tired from the noise, suddenly shook his head, and pressed Liu Huirong's face with one hand to restrain her barking her teeth and claws.Then she pretended to be handsome and stretched out her hand to Mu Qing, "It's almost time, let's go."

Mu Qing nodded, and put her hand on his warm palm.Bei Tangqi showed a defiant smile, and then pulled Mu Qing up.

Liu Huirong, who was still struggling, gradually lowered her arms. Beitang Qi seemed to feel something strange on the fingertips covering her eyes. It was a little hot. He turned his head in surprise, wiped it vigorously, and then Looking sideways, he whispered: "This kind of thing is not suitable for you." He stroked his fingertips with two fingers, and said no more.

Liu Huirong also smiled, and said to Beitang Qi: "You are right."

……

After packing up her things, Mu Qing put on the white velvet cloak that Beitang Mo had given her, and stroked it with her fingertips, feeling warm and melancholy at the same time.This time, I'm afraid I won't be able to discuss state affairs with the prince anymore. This time, I have to sort out everything that happened here in the past.

Mu Qing turned around, and finally took a deep look at the cold palace where she had stayed for a whole month, and suddenly realized that she had unknowingly gotten used to the life here.Perhaps this place is more suitable for her than Fengyang Palace.At least she doesn't have to pretend to be anyone anymore, but can be herself freely.

Suddenly hearing a slight movement, Mu Qing turned around to look vigilantly, only to see Liu Huirong standing at the door watching her pack her things.She pinched the door frame with her fingertips uneasily, opened and closed her lips, and seemed to want to say something but dared not speak.For Liu Huirong, who has a unified heart and mouth, Mu Qing can see her thoughts, and suddenly realizes what she is worried about, so she smiles and reaches out to her, "It won't be now, you think I will take you Leave it here."

Liu Huirong was stunned for a moment, and blinked her flowery eyes. She gasped in surprise, and then carefully placed her hand on Mu Qing's palm like a child who was at a loss. Mu Qing smiled, and suddenly held it warmly. The warm temperature made Hui Rong's heart suddenly filled with sourness, so sour that even when she and Mu Qing were packing things together, she was still crying loudly like a child, and she couldn't even hold the things in her hands steadily.

Seeing her rushing to pack her things, Mu Qing smiled, feeling more love and affection in her heart.Never thought that one day she would have such affection for Liu Huirong.She shook her head, slightly lamenting the impermanence and unpredictability of the next world.

When everything was sorted out, Mu Qing took out a hairpin that she usually pinned in her hair. She seemed to have been prepared, and calmly picked up a broken mirror.She stared deeply at herself in the mirror, and then stroked this alluring face with her fingertips.

She smiled, a touching smile, but also a contemptuous smile.

"Sure enough, it's a country and a city." Mu Qing said softly, all the past kept flying in her mind.She still had some memories of Su Muqing in the past, and at this moment, she remembered that it was so piercing.So he raised his hand suddenly, and suddenly used the hairpin to scratch from his ear to the lower left side of his face.The long scars immediately tore through this stunning beauty that everyone admired.

No matter how beautiful it is, it's just a fake. For her, it doesn't need it.Her self-esteem does not allow anyone to trample on her in this way.

At this time, Liu Huirong who was about to call Su Muqing to leave was suddenly startled by the scar on her face, and the things in her hand fell suddenly. She turned around in the room at a loss, then yelled and wanted to run to stop Su Muqing. Even Shangguan Yu and Beitang Qi couldn't help being taken aback by her behavior.But soon, they also fell into silence and didn't want to say anything more, but their faint sadness inadvertently appeared on the sideways faces.

This proud woman finally tore apart this face that did not belong to her.She would rather turn into the ugliest woman in the world, and never be that empress who overwhelms the country and the city again.

The nobile fell to the ground, and it was sticky with bright red blood.Mu Qing once again faced herself in the mirror. At this moment, she finally had a relaxed smile on her lips, as if she had been reborn.Then she casually threw away the mirror in her hand, threw off her robe and walked in the front.The white velvet is scattered and the black color is entangled. She is like the most beautiful snow demon in the world, with a rebellion against the way of heaven, a proud persistence all over her body, and a calm and intelligent eye, leaving this cage of trapped birds forever.

This woman is destined to be extraordinary in her life, and she is destined not to succumb to fate. Whether she is a queen or not, she is well-deserved... the king of all phoenixes.Looking at her unhesitating back, the three people behind him sighed deeply, then regrouped and left with Su Muqing...

The Mingyang Palace in the middle of the night seemed to be much deserted than usual, Bei Tangfeng was drinking cold strong wine alone, his stomach seemed to be on fire.He who has not eaten for a day seems to be more likely to get drunk, and the pain in his heart is still there, like ten thousand ants gnawing at his heart.

'Stay by your side, just because I like you, nothing else. '

Recalling Su Muqing's words during the day, an unbearable pain suddenly pierced Beitangfeng's heart.

He didn't understand... He didn't understand, if she really loved him, why would she tell such a big lie, even if she really betrayed him, if she was willing to tell the whole story, he might still forgive her.Because he has forgiven her once, hasn't he?Even if I forgive again, so what, so what!
Beitangfeng clenched his teeth and poured another glass of wine.

He really fell in love with her.And before I knew it, I had fallen in love so deeply.So deep that he would stop thinking about this woman all the time.

However, if what she said is true... She is really a soul from another world, and she really has never done anything, then the person who really hurt the other party is him.

But, how is this possible, he is the emperor, how can he believe in such ghosts and gods.

He gulped himself a few more mouthfuls, and the juice entered his throat, which was actually full of bitterness.

Not long after, a faint breeze came out of Mingyang Hall, as if someone had come in.Beitangfeng's heart tensed a little, because he knew that the only person in the whole world who was allowed to enter his palace like this was Jiang Tingyu, and Jiang Tingyu... would bring Su Muqing's secret to him thoroughly.

He wanted to hear what this woman wanted from him.

At this time, the wind stopped, and Jiang Tingyu, who was dressed in white, quietly entered the hall. His steps were light, but he frowned slightly.He really doesn't like the smell of wine, but today's Mingyang Palace is full of this smell.So he couldn't help feeling a little worried, and looked at Beitangfeng who was drinking directly from the wine glass.He let out a breath, then slowly approached Beitangfeng and said: "Your Majesty, my subordinates have already found out the clues."

Beitangfeng paused for a moment, but still took a sip, but the fingertips holding the wine glass put a little more force on it.After a while, he said lightly: "Tell me."

Jiang Tingyu nodded, and then said solemnly: "About the matter of the two empresses, my subordinates found out that the former empress Su Muqing used the yin and yang technique of Imperial Physician Li to do it. I only found out after arresting Imperial Physician Li not long ago for questioning. It is said that the queen who was in the palace not long ago was the remnant soul he summoned many years later. She was introduced into the body of the empress empress, just to atone for the dead ghost. That's why the emperor saw the scars of the queen on her body. Subordinates It was unbelievable at first. Perhaps the emperor would not believe it, but the subordinates have already confirmed what they heard."

Snapped--!
The gold and copper wine glass fell to the ground suddenly, and the transparent juice spilled mercilessly everywhere.Beitangfeng turned his head gradually, and looked at Jiang Tingyu in disbelief, "She... really is... such an unbelievable thing, how could it be..."

Suddenly, he recalled what he had said to Su Muqing during the day.

"If you are a wisp of remnant soul, why don't you just disappear..."

"But the emperor already knows that this empress is innocent, so just treat her well, and leave other matters to his subordinates. His subordinates will definitely investigate the one who appeared in Fengyang Palace..."

"It's too late." Beitangfeng murmured, pain gradually showing on his face.

Why don't you just disappear...

Suddenly remembering the words he said to her during the day, it was only at this moment that he realized how cruel those words were.He denied all the reasons for her existence, and completely denied her!

Suddenly, he felt that her words today were so peaceful, as if she was saying goodbye.

If she really disappeared like this... then he...

Beitang got up abruptly, as if he had fallen into a panic that he had never experienced before.He didn't care about the dropped wine glass, the untied dragon robe, or everything else.

You can't say goodbye, you can't leave, you can't let her disappear in your own world.

If even she leaves in this icy palace, then he will return to the depths of hell once again, and will linger in the icy abyss again.

It was the first time he was so remorseful, the first time his heart was so painful, and the first time he seemed to die.

He ran, and then ruthlessly pushed open the door of the cold palace.Everyone including Li Dexi frantically stopped him, fearing that this filthy place would defile the dragon's body.But at this moment, in Beitangfeng's heart, there is no emperor, no queen, no ancestral rules, only one person... that is Su Muqing, that damned woman who disturbed him!

"Su Muqing, Su Muqing!! Come out!" Beitangfeng suddenly entered the Lenggong courtyard, and then pushed Su Muqing's room away like crazy, but it was empty, as if there had never been a trace of that woman's life.

His heart became heavier and heavier, he searched one by one, and woke up all the crazy women in their dreams.

Seeing the emperor, those women suddenly seemed to erupt and rushed towards him like crazy.

The sharp nails scratched his skin, scratched his cheeks, and tore his clothes.He seemed to have lost his sense of pain and everything, and was just looking for, looking for the figure of the woman who once smiled back at him.

But in this dark night, she was lost alone.

And the cruelest words he left her pierced into his heart like a double-edged sharp knife.

At this time Li Dexi suddenly came out with a red brocade box, and came up to Beitangfeng timidly. Beitangfeng pushed away the woman wrapped around his hand, and opened the red cover with a slight trembling.

This is the dragon-carved jade flute he gave her. She took everything away, but left this thing alone.

She... really disappeared as he said, really left him, really... left him alone in this lonely palace.He will never see that warm smile again, no one will hug his trembling body tightly, and no one will stand with him... on the coldest top of this palace.

"Su Muqing, do you really think that after you leave, I will fall in love with that woman who has been greedy for the position of queen from the beginning to the end, and even put me in a sea of ​​fire? Obviously you let me know what love is, Obviously it was you who let me know this bitter taste, but you left me where I am... I am not an object without feelings, how could I touch any woman other than you!"

At this time Jiang Tingyu approached, he hesitated, and finally said seriously: "Your majesty, I advise you to keep this friendship. The people and officials all love the queen, even if the current queen is a traitor. The emperor's woman, but she must also maintain the overall situation for that empress. Even if it is a pawn, you cannot remove her."

Beitangfeng was quiet for a long time, and the jade flute in his hand gradually fell to the ground. At this moment, he suddenly laughed, laughing madly and painfully, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Su Muqing, did you hear that? You have broken my heart and taken away the hearts of all people in the world. Now even the real Su Muqing back then has become your substitute. But... at this moment, you left everything behind and walked away. I will not forgive you ... I will definitely find you, Su Muqing!!!" Beitangfeng roared, and then slowly knelt down on one knee because of his powerlessness, and everyone around him knelt down in shock when they saw it.

God, it's raining, one by one fell on his hands, his face was cold, just like the day when Su Muqing first came a long time ago.

Only this time, she left, just like when she came, disappearing into his world without a sound.
