Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

I didn't look back, I just stood there, looking at the dark and narrow corridor ahead, and said, "What's the matter?"

Pei Yuanzhen said: "I know that the other day you took your daughter to Yangzhou to meet with the Emperor Brother. You once encountered an assassin who stabbed, right?"

I nodded.

"Actually, not only the emperor met the assassin."

My heart fluttered, but before I reacted, I heard Pei Yuanzhen said, "Light cold, but also assassinated."

"...!"

I looked back at her: "What?"

"Light cold is also among the assassinated."

Assassinated? !!

When I heard this sentence, my face was pale, and countless pictures flashed in my head, but none of them could be seen clearly. The only thing that was clear was that every picture was bloody, terrible, that **** smell. As if spreading from memory, it made me shudder.

My face sank: "Then he--"

"He's okay." Pei Yuanzhen said quietly: "Although the assassin touched the state capital, he responded quickly, suffered only a minor trauma, and persisted until the guard arrived, and those assassins were subdued."

"..."

I stayed there without a response, and after a while, I breathed a long sigh of relief.

He's fine.

All right, all right!

I just heard Pei Yuanzhen say two words, but at this time I felt the cold sweat on my body came out, was blown by the wind on the promenade, and there was some trembling in my whole body. I remember that day, Pei Yuanzhang took me and the wonderful words When going to the prefecture to enjoy the flowers, the guards of the prefecture seemed to be very cautious. It could even be said that they were nervous and almost did not let Gu Ping enter the door. Now I understand that it is because Master Fu Yin was assassinated. For them, they may lose their heads at any time, and of course they must be careful.

But I didn't expect that assassination—this kind of thing really fell on Liu Qinghan!

At that time, Liu Shizhou, and Liu Yi, both his father and brother were in this place. After being assassinated, he died in the south of the river. After knowing Qing Han's life, and after knowing his dreams and responsibilities, what I worry about most is That is, the blood of the family gave him such a sense of responsibility and led him on the same path as his father and brother. Then, will he also have the same ending as his father and brother?

When I think of it, I just feel that the whole body's blood is cold, and I look up at Pei Yuanzhen subconsciously.

"Who is it?"

"..."

"Who sent those assassins?"

Pei Yuanzhen looked at me coldly, without answering, "Who are you talking about?"

"...!"

Looking at her cold gaze, my heart fluttered a little, and I reacted.

Does she mean--

"No! It won't be your second brother!"

Pei Yuanzhen still looked at me, coldly speaking.

"It won't be him. I've made it clear to him, and he promised me."

"What did he promise you?"

"He promised me that he would not use force against Yangzhou!"

"..."

After hearing this, Pei Yuanzhen's eyes flickered slightly, and it seemed a little hesitant, but after a long silence, she still said, "The second brother's work must be done, and he is not so easy to give up. Moreover, even The second brother does not want to do anything with Yangzhou for the time being, but you-you and Qing Han's past, does he know? "

After listening to her, I was suffocated for a moment.

For Pei Yuanxiu-To be honest, I know too little. Although he has always been so gentle to me, has no cold and brutal attitude, and has not rejected people from thousands of miles away, but I still cannot see him and Yao Lao Like what I said, although I face him day and night, I still don't know what he is thinking.

But Pei Yuanzhen said that what he was going to do must be done.

Even if he doesn't do anything with Yangzhou now, it's only temporary.

Is it really like that?

I just felt a chill, and I could not help but stunned. When I looked up, Pei Yuanzhen was still looking at me, waiting for my answer. I settled down and said, "I also made it clear to him. . "

"..."

"Me and light-I and your groom officer, we have passed."

"..."

"Yuan Xiu already knew."

Hearing my words, Pei Yuanzhen seemed relieved, but when she looked up at me, her eyes seemed a little complicated. After a moment of silence, she said doubtfully, "Do you really think so?"

"He promised me, he should--"

"I mean, you and Qinghan," she asked me, "do you really think that you have passed?"

"..."

Looking at her heavily makeup-stained face, the fingerprints that were already clearly visible, for some reason, I felt a little powerless and tired, and looked at her lazily: "Otherwise?"

"..."

"What else?"

"..."

"Liu Qinghan, your groom officer, he was the first person to come out of the past; and I, after marrying your second brother, has been letting myself out. As for you—" I looked at her with a slight smile "You are the only one of us who has been stubborn to stay in that past."

"..."

Speaking of which, I looked up and looked around. This area is rich in vegetation, full of joy, and bright moon and clear feng shui. There are always some things that are constant, and there are always things that are changing. Like the water in the river, the tighter you hold it, the faster it will slip away from your fingers.

"In fact, you don't have to come to me at all, and you don't have to be so worried about me and his past."

"..."

"He's going to marry, I'm married, that's the truth."

She stared at me stupidly. The expression of surprise on her face made me wonder whether I should cry or laugh. She just looked at the place where she was beaten by me. Although I didn't feel wronged, I still felt pain.

I thought about it and turned around again, facing her completely, and said calmly, "Whether you are doing these things for him or whatever, but you can do that, I know It's not easy, Your Royal Highness. Many people will thank you. "

"..."

"If you have the heart ..."

Speaking of this, I was a little hesitant for a moment, I don't know if I should say it, but Pei Yuanzhen seemed to have felt something, and frowned slightly: "What?"

"..." I was silent for a while, after all I said, "If you are interested, protect your nephew more."

She snapped: "Did you read it?"

"Yes, His Royal Highness."

"What do you mean?"

I hesitated, but still said, "I don't know if it's my illusion. His Majesty the Emperor seems to be dissatisfied with the Prince, he seems to--"

Pei Yuanzhen's face slumped: "He wants to abolish the prince?"

I shook my head: "I didn't mean it that way, and he didn't say that. I just felt that he seemed a little dissatisfied with the Prince."

Pei Yuanzhen frowned suddenly.

I said: "His Majesty the Emperor will not have fewer children in the future, the Prince's status will be impacted to some extent, Her Royal Highness-I know that Her Royal Highness has always taken good care of her Prince, and if she can, Her Royal Highness will pay more attention to her.

She listened to me, but frowned suddenly: "How do you know I'm right-to take care of the Prince?"

"..."

I was silent for a while, watching her face that was clearly alert, sighing, and slowly said, "In the past, His Royal Highness suffered a bad throat, and I was entrusted by the Queen's maiden to take care of her Highness in Jingren Palace. Living. And that night, I saw the shadow of His Royal Highness before his bed ... "

Her face suddenly sank.

"Although everyone said that it was Xu Xianfei's injustice, I know it is not."

"No? Then why the next day, your little girl shouted to see a ghost?"

"That's just what I borrowed, let her say the same, to scare Yuwen."

"..."

"I'm the only one who sees the shadow."

"..."

"Furthermore, if there is really a ghost, and who the queen and queen are, it is impossible not to care about it at all, but to allow the dark shadow to come and go freely in Jingren Palace. After all, the old Taoist priest of the inner court is not Useless. "

This time, Pei Yuanzhen did not speak, but closed her bright red cherry lips.

"The palace is full of excitement, but the queen mother and acquaintance acquiesced that this kind of thing has always existed. Actually, it is not that this kind of thing exists, but she is very kind. She acquiesced in and out of Jingren Palace like this. You have even explained that some guards in Jingren Palace have opened doors for you, and you haven't publicized the truth of the matter, because you don't want others to know that you are actually caring about your Highness. "

"..."

"Because, although you have hatred in your heart, you are actually guilty of Your Highness."

"What guilt?"

"At that time, when the concubine was still talented, she was pregnant with Rokko, but the incense you gave her was--"

Speaking of which, I saw her complexion suddenly become pale, and she could not conceal even the thick makeup, and did not say any more.

I said calmly: "Moreover, I went to find out later. In fact, you went back to the palace a day in advance, but you didn't tell anyone. Only after Ye Yunshuang went to find you secretly, did you come to Jingren Palace. But After you came, you did n’t ask anything, but you just asked why Shui Xiu talked nonsense, because you did n’t come to Jingren Palace that night, and that dark shadow should not have appeared. ”

"..."

Looking at her slowly sinking complexion, I asked, "Am I right?"

She looked at me, this time completely speechless.

The two were facing each other in silence, the wind blew through the empty promenade, blowing the clothes of both men up and down, and there was a sense of coldness as if they were like flying foxes.

Looking at the redness and swelling still on her face, I could not help feeling a little guilt.

However, I have no intention to apologize to her.

After all, she didn't apologize to me.

The two stood here with a little embarrassment, and after a while, I said, "Let's stop here."

She looked at me and said nothing, and I just turned and walked away slowly.

After leaving the garden, a loud noise came from the front hall. Several maids passing by saw me and they bowed carefully, I just nodded and opened the side curtain. Just watching the hall was a lively scene.

When I walked to the place where we sat and rested, I found that my chair was already seated by another person.
