Looking at Su Nianwei, who came in afar with some confusion, A Xiang was relieved and went forward; "Sister Su, where have you been? I'm scared to death."
Su Nianwei smiled indifferently and his eyes were full of helplessness; "It's not to find you. I'm afraid that you will get lost, and finally I lost my way."
As soon as Ah Xiang heard this, his red face looked slightly guilty and said, "What should I do now?"
"What else can I do? Go back to the royal palace!" Su Nianwei spread out his hand with a disapproving face.
Ah? Back home? It's not now..."
Su Nianwei, who knew what Axiang was going to say, walked forward by herself; "No more, the palace can't accommodate us. Let's go!"
"But..."
"Let's go!"
.....................................................
In the Wende Hall, the ten-year-old young emperor sat in the hall with a silent face. He was absent-minded, holding the dragon and phoenix white jade cup in his hand and playing with it.
Soon, the songs and dances dispersed, and the congratulatory messages of the ministers did not make him happy. Instead, he frowned, and his handsome and wise face showed a heavyness that did not match his age.
At this time, Lord Liu, the right middle primer, suddenly got up and said, "Your Majesty, in today's world, singing and dancing have become flat, the country is picturesque, and the country is prosperous and the people are safe. The people of the world are not closed at night, and the road is not found. Moreover, Su Shiyan's family, a sinner, was also detained. Such a scene is really a blessing for our Eastern Qin Kingdom!"
Dongling Zhutian is used to listening to the words of these ministers who report good news and not bad news. Of course, he can't personally understand the people's feelings. At this moment, he can only nod and say nothing.
After that, everyone raised their glasses and invited each other in a festive mood.
However, while congratulating each other, Dongling Xiu, with a cold face, suddenly hugged Leng Ji, the beauty in his arms, and smiled evilly; "Who said that the world is really peaceful?"
As soon as these words came out, all the officials who congratulated stopped moving. Everyone looked at the bloodthirsty eyes, and the elderly minister was so scared that he swallowed his saliva on the spot and turned his eyes with a frightened face. It seems that if you look at it for one more second, your heart will be under more pressure. However, those noblewomen secretly peeped at him with respectful and timid eyes. Yes, he is as respectful and frightening as a god. At the same time, his power, courage, excellent appearance and poppy-like demagogic people.
"Recordingly, a group of robbers have appeared outside Beijing. These thieves of unknown origin only picked up to get out of the car at night. I guess the ministers sitting should not know, right?" After saying that, Dongling Xiu raised his slender and thin cocooned index finger and flicked slightly. While the action was lazy, it also added a little danger.
"This..." Some ministers have sweaty foreheads and wiped them with those expensive brocade robes from time to time.
"Uncle Yu? Is this really the case? Dongling Zhutian, with a naive face, turned his doubtful eyes to Dongling Xiu's body, and even the beautiful empress dowager beside him had to look at him differently.
"Holy, they are not ordinary thieves!"
"Is that reckless?" Dongling Zhutian secretly guessed.
Dongling's deep pupils scanned the nervous expression of all the ministers in the hall, and then replied coldly: "No, they are professionally trained and know the operation of the court. I suspect that internal officials must be revered from it!"
Speaking of this, several ministers have turned pale because they couldn't stand Dongling Xiu's sharp and cold eyes. It seems that as long as the center of gravity is unstable at any time, it will faint.
"Internal officials? They sent people to rob the official silver. Don't they know that these silvers can't be seen? Even if you get it, you may not be able to use it. This time, the noble empress dowager was puzzled. She glanced at the suspicious people of Her Royal Highness and analyzed the advantages and disadvantages.
After listening to Dongling Xiu, his face still did not change, and his eyes were as black as before.
Then, he hugged Leng Ji, who was drinking for him, and stroked his jaw with the other. "The official silver of unknown origin did not dare to show it, but they could enrich their own pockets and recruit troops to buy a car in the future. At a critical time, this group of official banks will play a great role.
"Oh? Bold, who dares to make trouble under my eyes is really the opposite. Although Dongling Zhutian doesn't want to be powerful in public. However, I was forced to be helpless. Yes, although he was not in the Dragon Throne, the regent, who took all the power in the court, was forcing himself to give down to the big officials.
Dongling Xiu raised an evil smile at the corners of his mouth, and then took the wine from Leng Ji's hand and drank it down. The sound of "coo-" was like a devil in hell, which made the officials on both sides of the palace tremble and close their eyes.
He proudly put down the blue and jade cup and got up indifferently; "Whoever swallowed these official silver knows it. I won't get into this matter. It depends on whether the people of the Ministry of Criminal Justice have the ability to settle the case. After saying that, Dongling's long eyes slanted and glanced at some officials one by one.
Just when those who had been awe-insered by him were sitting upright, he suddenly picked up Leng Ji, who was like a water snake, and walked out of the hall; "Those who want to reintegrate Su Shiyan had better have enough strength to resist the king. Responsible, let me catch the handle, and you will know what it means to die without a burial place. A devil-like cruel voice sounded faintly in the hall, and the terrible warning was like a spell, making everyone headache and chest tight.
When his figure was really blurred, several ministers who could not stand the destruction knelt down with a plop.
"Old minister, I will investigate the official silver tomorrow, and I will definitely recover all the stolen official silver in half a month!"
In the Langlang Hall, there was a burst of unbridled laughter, accompanied by a charming coquettishness of the woman. The ministers looked at each other as if they were cold as cicadas.
The bright teenager in the Golden Hall frowned slightly and was deep and forbearing. The seemingly powerless appearance is actually a few times, with a pair of clenched fists.
.............................
In mid-September of Jinghe's seventh year, Su Shiyan's family asked Xuan. His daughter Su Nianwei was the concubine given to King Yu by the previous emperor to avoid her death. He was assigned as a maidservant of Yufu. Without the order of King Yu, he could not turn over in this life.
In early October of the seventh year of Jinghe, Xiao Yuxue was officially repaired by Dongling and married into the royal palace with infinite scenery. The next day, she was awarded the title of imperial concubine.
Some changes are too fast to catch people off guard. However, Su Nianwei knew that it would end like this for a long time, so there was no change as a result.
Therefore, after accepting the facts, she calmly moved out of the Fuyun Pavilion.
Two years later.
Looking at the once delicate, flexible, white and soft hands, now full of thick cocoon, Su Nianwei sighed. She is now more and more suspicious of the original decision. In order to get the dust bead in Dongling Xiu's hand, she avoided many spring, summer, autumn and winter. Now that she is living a slave life that is worse than death, there is no hope or ending, and she begins to be a little desperate.
If she had put aside the idea of getting the dust beads, maybe she had escaped from Dongling Xiu's grasp at this moment. Even if she wandered in ancient times, she could live a free life.
"Sister, you are in a daze again. Why don't you go to bed when you are so tired? You have to work early tomorrow morning!" The thick door was pushed open by Ah Xiang. Seeing that Su Nianwei was as dazed as before, she couldn't help reminding her carefully.
Since two years ago, when she came out like a floating cloud pavilion, Sister Nian has become more silent. Although she usually didn't say a word, Ah Xiang understood how hard she lived.
"You two haven't slept yet. Don't be listless at that time. It's better not to blame me for giving you heavy work tomorrow morning." Su Meng, who passed by the door, immediately reminded coldly with a calm face when he saw such a situation.
When Ah Xiang saw Su Meng coming, he immediately closed the door and muttered with a grunted face; "I know!" Yes, after moving out of Fuyun Pavilion two years ago, Sister Su was demoted to a slave, the three of them were responsible for the sanitation here at the same time. Of course, we also have to take care of a woman favored by King Yu.
"Sister, at least you are also Su Meng's former master. Look, she has become a "female official" now. Now she often calls people like this and calls people like that. If you can't do it well, just complain to the top. It's really bad-hearted.
Looking at Ah Xiang's aggrieved appearance, Su Nianwei could only smile bitterly and said, "Let her go. I'm tired. I won't have energy until tomorrow after a good rest."
A Xiang was not convinced and pouted and asked, "But sister, aren't you angry at all?"
"Can I be angry? Here, everyone knows how much the prince hates me. The reason why I didn't die is that he wanted to torture and insult me. Now, as long as there is an individual here, he can shout at me. I'm not as good as you. Who do you think I am entitled to be angry with?
"Sister...I..." A Xiang, who realized that he had said something wrong, was full of guilt and suddenly didn't know what to say or what not to say.
Su Nianwei blew out the lamp and took off the veil. In the dark room, she sighed alone; "Sleep, life is a lot of helplessness. I believe that one day, it will rain and clear up.
The moon rose slowly through the mist, like a jade ice plate that had just been dehydrated, stained with fine dust. The surrounding clouds are like a woman's sad thoughts, faint and soft.
The next day, dawn.
Su Nianwei, who was cleaning the fallen leaves in the garden, suddenly felt that something was staring at her.
She stopped her hand and looked at both sides with a pair of hazy eyes like clouds after the rain, and found that there was nothing else in the garden except the singing of birds and the "hooting-" sound blown by the breeze.
Suddenly, she thought for a moment and continued to wave the broom in her hand, intending to sweep the fallen leaves in the garden.
It seems that I went to bed too late yesterday, so I had hallucinations. Why did she feel a pair of eyes staring straight at her? That uneasiness has been around her since morning.
"Well, that's right. Su Nianwei, who used to be a daughter and a princess of gold, didn't expect to do these cheap jobs. It's really incredible."
A cold sound, accompanied by his unique deterrence, suddenly shocked Su Nianwei's whole body trembled.
She turned side in surprise, and the face in front of her was so familiar and unforgettable. This man who once tortured her to death, the man who almost threw her into hell, and the man who once destroyed her life are standing beside him proudly.
She calmed down for two years, and for the first time, she began to surge fiercely. Yes, the appearance of this man means that her life will change again.
In two years, her eyes have become much more dead, and her body has become much more haggard and thin. After such a long time, he almost forgot the existence of this woman. I just occasionally remember in my dream that a woman would always stare at him with a pair of resentful eyes when he closed his eyes. Many times, he couldn't see her face. He only remembered that her eyes were so dark and clear, but when he looked at him, he was so terrible and unwilling.
Is it her? Is she the woman in the dream?
He still hasn't changed at all, but there is a touch of sharpness and coldness in his eyes that ordinary people can't detect. It seems that the power and momentum in recent years have made him more arrogant and lawless.
For a long time, she came back to her senses before she opened her mouth quietly; "How can you noble people feel comfortable without people like me to do the lowly work?"
Dongling raised his eyebrows, and a trace of anger flashed on his cold and handsome face; "Two years later, your fierce personality remains unchanged. In today's world, only you dare to talk to me like this. Su Nianwei, do you know what your identity is now?
Isn't this woman afraid of death? She was imprisoned for two years and tortured her for two years, and she not only did not beg him as expected. On the contrary, she is even more unpredictable at this moment.
She smiled, and the sarcasm in her eyes burned his black pupils; "In my parents' eyes, I am a priceless baby in your eyes. I'm a bitch who is not even as good as an animal!"
After listening to Dongling Xiu, he snorted coldly; "Huh, haven't your father Su Shiyan and your mother Zhang Shi have already been killed? Now, where are your parents?
Su Nianwei smiled bitterly and did not say anything.
"Su Nianwei, listen to me. I'm not here today to ask questions. I just give you a chance to leave here and get glory and wealth. However, it's up to you whether you can grasp it or not. As he said, he leaned closer. The dangerous action immediately made Su Nianwei retreat three steps away.
She narrowed her eyes and laughed coldly, "The prince should know what it means to be a thing. Before the prince promises me to be rich, I think I should also pay a painful price. After all, it is impossible for the most wise and magical regent in the world to do business at a loss, and he still faces the most annoying person in his life.
Looking at the beautiful pupils shining with the light of wisdom, Donglingxiu suddenly found that he did not hate this woman. To be precise, after Su Shiyan was beheaded, he had no sense of her hatred. However, when he thought that she was Su Shiyan's daughter, even if he didn't hate her, he tried his best to force himself to hate her. Therefore, in order to show that he hated her, he used all kinds of methods to torture her and humiliate her, but in the end, he increasingly found how stupid it was.
Another reason is that this woman's eyes have never looked at him with reverence or fear as others. He was the first one. When he looked at him, he was so unyielding, so calm and arrogant. Therefore, he has always wanted to conquer her and the eyes that make him sleep in his dreams. Even the most cruel torture in the world will make her bow to him.
"You are very smart! Unfortunately, I didn't find out before that if I had known the current affairs earlier, I wouldn't have made you suffer so much. Soon to get rid of those messy ideas, Dongling Xiu said with a grim face.
Is that right? Unfortunately, the prince never gave me a chance to perform. At the beginning, as long as he found the opportunity, Donglingxiu either beat or insulted her, but now he praises her so much, which sounds really ironic.
In the face of disdain and doubt in his beautiful eyes, Donglingxiu's anger rose again. Damn, it was this kind of look that made him unable to control himself. Let him try all the eyes that want to fight for God. At this time, he really can't wait to crush her.
"Now, I have given you a chance." He tried to control himself and said with a deep face.
"Oh? Thank you very much for looking up to it."
"I want you to enter the palace and monitor the emperor's every move."
"Do you want me to work on it?"
"Yes, when the king's detailed work has the glory and wealth you can enjoy!"
"What if I don't agree?" Su Nianwei knew that this kind of thing was equivalent to betraying the country for glory. As long as he was a little careless, he was likely to kill the nine clans. Although she has no nine clans now, she wants to return to modern times alive.
Dong Lingxiu's face was gloomy, and a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes; "Then I can only kill you."
Su Nianwei didn't expect this person to say so, but on second thought, this devil-like person will definitely do what he says. Immediately, the heart showed a beat for no reason. Turning around and taking a deep breath, he said calmly, "Yes, I can be your fine work, but you also have to agree to me!"
"Do you think it's good for you to bargain here?" He raised his thin lips with a Satanic smile.
"There is no benefit, but there will be no harm. After all, you have to use me."
"Since you are so confident, can you tell me about it?" He playfully moved the wrench on his left hand with a haze on his face.
Su Nianwei turned around indifferently and looked directly at him without a pair of water eyes. "I don't want glory and wealth. I just want the dust beads in your hand."
Dongling Xiu's face changed suddenly, and his eyes were like a pool, looking around Su Nianwei for a long time; "How do you know that I have dust beads in my hand?"
"You don't need to know this. Anyway, you promise to complete this transaction. If you don't agree, then kill me!" Yes, Su Nianwei is gambling and gambling with her life. Just bet that Dongling Xiu must come here for her. He is responsible for his arrogant temper. How can he entrust himself to ask her to do things for himself?
"Are you threatening me?" Donglingxiu saw a trace of determination from those quiet eyes, and suddenly there was a tremor in the depths of his heart.
"I dare not, I'm just fighting for my own interests."
"Very good, I underestimated it again."
"If you find me now, it shows that you have a unique vision."
"What's the use of that thing?"
"It's self-useful."
He suddenly stepped in, and his eyes became terrible; "With your cleverness, is it for this bead to stay here for so long?"
Su Nianwei felt the heat from his thin lips and tried his best to calm himself down, but retreated step by step: "You treat me as a felony prisoner. It is well known in the palace that hundreds of pairs of eyes stare at it every day. Can I escape? Can this be used as an excuse to stay here?
He suddenly walked in, put her against the corner of the wall, and then whispered in her ear with an ambiguous face; "You... are really smart!"
A hot air rushed from the ear to the back of the head, and Su Nianwei's whole body was numb. He wanted to push it away, but he was restrained by Dongling Xiu with thick arm tweezers.
" Let go of me..." She roared out of control.
"My concubine, do you remember that you haven't had a room with me yet!"
"Shameless!"
