Chapter 79

She lay under him not because she loved him, but because she wanted to protect Xu Ze.Until now, she was still plotting against him, using him, and trampled his dignity and sincerity under her feet.Jealousy and anger were like a prairie fire, burning his heart to a barren state, and his bones ached.

He thought of all the pampering and love she had for her, how she ruthlessly drove him from heaven to hell, and how she stepped on his sincerity and walked with Xu Ze all the way, abandoning him like a widow rear.

He had thought of forgiving her just like that.Even if she was tricked and played with.But now, hatred surged up again, and he said coldly, "Xu Ze is on his way right now."

Murong Xue was slightly taken aback, "What way?"

His smile was as cold as ice: "Of course it's on Huangquan Road."

If a thunderbolt hit Murong Xue's head, the bright light on her face would instantly dim like haze, she didn't seem to believe it, and asked again: "Did you really kill him?"

Yeluyan sneered: "It's too cheap for me to kill him, I should keep him and torture him slowly."

He really killed Xu Ze, the cruel and hateful look in his eyes would never be a joke, no joke.

Murong Xue's face was pale, tears filled her eyes, and fell down in a rustle.Seeing this heartbroken expression in Yeluyan's eyes made him even more angry.He didn't expect that she would be so distraught over Xu Ze's death.

Under jealousy, he said without hesitation: "Not only him, but also Pei Jian, your father, everyone should be severely punished."

Murong Xue wiped away tears, glanced at Yeluyan, and rushed out of the Nuan Pavilion.

The intense hatred in those eyes, like a spear, pierced straight into Yeluyan's heart.

Qin Shuhou was outside the imperial study room, seeing that the concubine De concubine hadn't come out for a long time, he vaguely guessed what happened inside, and couldn't help but smile comfortably.The emperor has been holding back for so many days, and it's time to relax.

After the death of the first emperor, the Jade Empress had a miscarriage due to excessive grief. The emperor lived in Qianming Palace all the time. Later, the Jade Empress became angry with the emperor because of the renovation of Yide Palace. As a result, the two had a cold war, and the emperor continued to live in Qianming Palace.

There are countless beauties in this palace, beauties are like a cloud, Yeluyan turned a blind eye to it, Qin Shu watched him become a monk for nearly three months, really found it inconceivable.

It's a pity that he just felt relieved for the emperor for a while when he saw Concubine De running out with tears all over her face, rushing into the night like a gust of wind.

Qin Shu was puzzled and stared straight.

Xu Ze died, it was she who killed him.This thought was like a knife cutting Murong Xue's heart.She remembered the first time she saw him, he smiled so sincerely and cheerfully, helping her out of righteousness.She remembered that every time she needed help, he appeared in front of her, spent countless money for her, and almost died for her. It was such a good man who was finally killed by her.

The guilt and pain in her heart made her almost go crazy.She fell to her desk and cried bitterly, no matter how Yeluyan treated her before, she never hated him, but now she hates him like that.

Ding Xiang and Pei Lan didn't know why she was crying so bitterly.No matter how she asked, Murong Xue didn't answer, she just cried until the tears ran dry.

After a long time, she stood up and looked at this luxurious palace exhaustedly. It was just a cage, and she didn't like it at all.She missed Huichun Medical Center and her father's love.

But all of this no longer exists, and even Xu Ze, her only friend in this life, was implicated to death by her.

Angry and desperate, she tore off the veil behind the screen with one hand, and then tore it with all her might.

Jiayin was stunned.

Murong Xue's subordinates kept tearing the veil that was as thin as a cicada's wings into strips of cloth. She looked sad and hopeless, but a decadent and bright radiance shone around her.Under the slender fingers, the beige veil floated around her like smoke and mist.

Jiayin suddenly understood why the legendary Xia Chao Meixi could make the king tear up a thousand ribbons to make the beauty smile.Aside from being amazed, Jiayin was also worried in her heart. If this news got out, people might say that Concubine De was extravagant and immoral, but seeing Murong Xue's expression, she dared not speak out to dissuade her.

Both Ding Xiang and Pei Lan watched silently, without any surprise on their faces, as if they were not seeing each other for the first time.

Murong Xue walked slowly across the long veil, her expression so mournful that it broke one's heart.

Lonely deep palace.It was as if some part of her heart had also died.

Since Murong Xue returned to the palace, Yu Pingting sent people to keep an eye on the movements of Yide Palace and Qianming Palace.She originally thought that Yeluyan would dote on Murong Xue once she returned to the palace, but who knew that Yeluyan didn't visit her for several days, and only summoned her twice in the imperial study room, and the time was very short. History is still a blank slate so far, so it can be seen that nothing happened in these two meetings.

Although Yu Pingting was secretly delighted, she was surprised at the same time, and really couldn't understand Yeluyan's thoughts.

Everyone in the world knows that he has deep affection for Concubine De, and she also thinks so, but why does he treat Murong Xue so coldly after going through all kinds of hardships to find Murong Xue?

Yu Pingting couldn't figure it out, she always felt that there was something strange about Murong Xue's return, and it was not like what Yeluyan claimed.

She was about to tell Mrs. Guan to pass on Chen An, when Mrs. Guan came in in a hurry and said with a look of shock: "Madam, it's not good. Zhao Zhenniang is in the star picking tower and wants to see the emperor."

Yu Pingting asked displeasedly: "Isn't there someone watching in Jingxin Palace, why did you tell her to run out?"

Since the previous dynasty, once the hundred days of the first emperor's death expired, those concubines who had no children in the harem would be sent to Hong'en Temple.The other concubines are fine, staying peacefully in the Jingxin Palace, chanting scriptures for the late emperor, only Zhao Zhenniang, who has been making a lot of noise recently, because tomorrow is the [-]-day period of the late emperor.

Guan said: "It is said that she ran out this morning while the eunuch who was watching the night was taking a nap, and then climbed to the Star Picking Tower, threatening that if the emperor refused to see her, she would jump off the building and commit suicide. The empress is the master of the harem." , it’s better to go there. This kind of story will always hurt the face of the royal family.”

Yu Pingting got up and said: "She just wanted to blackmail the emperor, to go back to Princess Wenchang, and then stay in the palace instead of going to Hong'en Temple."

"Your Majesty guessed right, that's exactly what she meant."

The Zhaixing Building is just beside Taiye Lake. It is a nine-storey high-rise building built by the water. In summer night, watching the stars and the moon on the high-rise building, the cool breeze is in your arms, very refreshing.

Yu Pingting took people to the Taiye Lake, and saw Zhao Zhenniang riding on the fence on the seventh floor of the Zhaixing Building.

There were quite a few eunuchs and maids around the lake, and when they saw the queen approaching, they all knelt down on the ground.

Yu Pingting said: "They all dispersed."

The maids and eunuchs immediately dispersed.

Zhao Zhenniang seemed to be Yu Pingting, and she shouted in despair and misery: "I want to see the emperor. That bitch Qiao Xueyi took my princess away, and I want the emperor to support justice for me." Zhao Zhenniang knew that Yu Pingting would never He would turn to himself, simply ignore her, and shout to Bi Kong: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

Yu Pingting said angrily: "What are you doing standing there, asking someone to go up and push her down, doesn't she want to die, just let her go."

Guan Shi was a little hesitant, Yu Pingting yelled, "Liuyun, Wanyue, go up."

At this moment, there was a voice from behind, "Wait a minute."

Yu Pingting turned her head and saw Murong Xue coming in a hurry.

She was wearing a pea green skirt embroidered with golden branches and grapes, like a touch of fresh spring green, fresh and delicate, delicate and beautiful.Yu Pingting is tall and tall, and has always looked down on those petite women, but I have to say that a delicate and dexterous figure like Murong Xue's is indeed endearing.

When Murong Xue walked up to salute her, Yu Pingting looked at her carefully, wondering if it was her illusion that Murong Xue really looked like he had just recovered from a serious illness when he returned this time, with a pale complexion and a gloomy expression. She was as flamboyant and bright as she had seen at the palace banquet before, as if all the light had been restrained.

"All blessings, Empress Dowager."

"Exemption." Yu Pingting said with a meaningful smile, "Is Concubine De very well informed?"

Murong Xue replied neither humble nor overbearing: "The maid of Yide Palace happened to pass by the Imperial Garden just now, and she told me about it after returning to the palace." She hurried over when she heard the news, she didn't expect to meet Yu Pingting.

Zhao Zhenniang lowered her head and saw Murong Xue, she immediately picked up a piece of driftwood like someone on the verge of death, and shouted from the Star Reaching Tower: "Empress Defei, Princess Wenchang was born to me, everyone in the harem knows it, Qiao Xueyi took my princess, I ask Empress Concubine De to be the master for me."

Zhao Zhenniang made a sound, and the lake wind blowing from the high-rise building sent her hair flying in all directions, as shrill and desperate as a female ghost.

Murong Xue still remembered the first time he saw her in the palace, she was hugged by the old emperor on his lap, plump and beautiful, dignified and generous.This harem has transformed such a gentle woman into this appearance.Murong Xue felt sad for a while, and shouted to her: "You come down first."

"I can't go down, I want to see the emperor, empress de concubine, have you forgotten how I helped you back then, and now that I'm in trouble, you just stand by and watch? Don't you have the heart to watch my mother and daughter separate, never to be separated?" The day we meet?"

Zhao Zhenniang's mournful cry made Murong Xue sad and powerless, she didn't want to help her, but she couldn't even take care of her own family, even Xu Ze died in vain.

She felt a pain in her heart, and when she raised her head, the light hurt her eyes.

Zhao Zhenniang cried: "Empress Defei, the grace of dripping water should be repaid by the spring. If I hadn't asked the first emperor to give you a marriage that day, how would you have the glory and wealth you have today? Defei Empress, please let me see the emperor. On the one hand, intercede for me."

Yu Pingting watched coldly, and for a while she didn't ask anyone to go up and push Zhao Zhenniang down the stairs. Instead, she took the time to watch Murong Xue make a fool of herself.

Zhao Zhenniang's crying made Murong Xue extremely sad, she looked up at Zhao Zhenniang and said: "You come down first, I will beg the emperor for you."

Zhao Zhenniang cried: "If the emperor doesn't come to see me, I won't go down. Without the princess, what's the point of my life?"

Seeing this, Murong Xue quickly walked towards Qinzheng Hall.

When Yeluyan got down from the court, he saw Murong Xue waiting beside the road leading to the imperial study.

He was slightly taken aback, the morning wind was chilly, her face was pale, he remembered how she left last night full of hatred.

He felt a little regretful, but when he thought that she had someone else in her heart and was so heartbroken for someone else, he felt jealous.It is difficult to restrain.

The hatred in Murong Xue's eyes dissipated, but it was filled with calm indifference and alienation, as if he was a stranger.This look made him feel more uncomfortable than hatred.

"Your Majesty." Murong Xue knelt on the ground.

Yeluyan said: "Get up and talk."

Murong Xue didn't get up, she put her hands on the ground: "Your Majesty, Zhao Zhenniang is in the Tower of Zhaixing, I beg the Emperor to see her."

Yeluyan narrowed his eyes slightly, he naturally knew why Zhao Zhenniang saw him.

"I know."

"If the emperor doesn't go to see her, she will jump off the building."

"so what."

Murong Xue didn't expect him to answer like this, to be so indifferent to Zhao Zhenniang's life and death.For a moment, she couldn't tell whether it was anger or disappointment, but she felt that the Yeluyan in front of her was no longer the person she once fell in love with. Although that person had a cold face, he had a kind heart.And when he ascended the throne, he had a murderous and decisive hostility in him.

Xu Ze, Zhao Zhenniang, these people, in his eyes, are not a life, but an ant.

Since last night, she had made up her mind not to see him again, but today she had to beg him for Zhao Zhenniang.

"I beg the emperor to see her for the sake of her kindness to me."

"She is kind to you?" Yeluyan laughed: "Have you forgotten? If she hadn't made a special trip to recommend you in front of the late emperor, how could you have been selected into the palace?"

Murong Xue said: "Yes, but if it wasn't for her later, I wouldn't have married into Prince Zhaoyang's residence."

Hearing this sentence, Yeluyan's tone softened a lot. "That's because she is planning for herself and paving the way for the future. Do you think she is really doing it for you?" Indeed, the fate with Murong Xue is because of Zhao Zhenniang, who kept her until now, and she is also thinking of her. merit.

"She is the biological mother of Princess Wenchang, and she should raise the princess with Concubine Qiao instead of being driven to Hong'en Temple."

"The palace has its own laws and regulations. This is the will of the late emperor and cannot be changed."

I didn't expect him to be so cold and hard-hearted.Murong Xue raised her head and said slowly: "It's not because of the late Emperor, but because of her, right?"

Yeluyan said angrily, "Shut up."

Murong Xue stood up, with a resolutely indifferent expression: "My concubine wishes the emperor his wish to be fulfilled."

Yeluyan was trembling with anger.

Not far away, Guan's face was pale, and he turned around quietly.
