worry

Under the drowsy candlelight, the cheeks on both sides showed different skin tones.

The deep and dark left face and the right cheek, which is as clean as gel, are so bright.

He let go of her like an electric shock, and his black pupils fixedly looked at the scars ignited by his face. The fierce strings in his heart were broken fiercely. Is she reminding him of the harm he left for her?

Seeing that Dongling Xiu finally let go, Su Nianwei smiled sarcastically, and then covered the exposed ice muscles indifferently.

"What? Are you scared? Will you still be unscrupulous after seeing this face? She looked at him with a sneer, and the chill in her eyes fell on his heart like a knife.

No, he actually felt a heartache for this woman.

He stepped back a few steps awkwardly, and then let out a roar; "No..."

"It's hard to accept, isn't it? But that's the truth. I really want to thank you for the masterpiece you left at the beginning, otherwise, the shame you face now will be more than a thousand times worse than the disfigurement.

"Su Nianwei..."

"The first time I heard you call my name, not a bitch. Oh, it's so kind. However, I will remember your animal walk today. Next time, you'd better stay away from each other so that you don't make such a mistake again. I believe that you hate me so much that you should not want to touch me. If you commit a big taboo next time when you can't control yourself, you will definitely blame me again. I don't want to suffer your innocent crimes while losing my body. In addition, if you deliberately want to torture me, I advise you that instead of eating the "poisonous fruit" here, you might as well go home to coax your "Tianshan Snow Lotus". She is non-toxic!" After saying that, Su Nianwei lifted the veil and then hung it skillfully in his ear, suddenly revealing only a pair of black, deep and transparent eyes, which flashed like two mysterious morning stars.

Dongling suddenly restrained his eyebrows, and his black pupils flashed with the light of danger. At this moment, he was as frim as a violent lion; "Are you remembering me?"

"Don't dare, I'm just a humble pawn under you. How can I be so bold?" Su Nianwei sneered.

He suddenly stepped forward, clenched her hand stroking her hair, and looked directly at her with a cold face: "I just want to know why you hurt Xue at the beginning?"

Snow? Xiao Yuxue?

"Haha--" She smiled sadly, with unspeakable hatred and resentment in her eyes; "Do you hurt her? If I want to hurt her, can she still be today's Princess Yu?

"Then why did you push her into the water?" His blue veins burst and roared like thunder. Yes, he didn't want to see Su Nianwei in front of him. Her eyes flashed with the light of decadence, as if everything she had been innocent.

She looked indifferent, and her eyes were faintly frosty; "Then you should ask your beloved woman whether she fell into the water or had another purpose? Or, you haven't asked anything about her disappearance at all. Everything she wrote and directed is the truth in your eyes!"

"You..."

"Go away, didn't you punish me for what happened? Why do you have to ask again? Do you want to humiliate me many times? If so, then I advise you not to do it."

"Have you really not done anything to Xue?" His magnetic voice was mixed with a trace of suspicion and trembling.

Su Nianwei inadvertently raised his eyes and pretended to be naive; "Are you doubting your favorite woman, or do you want to believe my words? In this way, it seems that it is not your Dongling Xiu who can call for wind and rain!"

After listening to her words, Dongling Xiu calmed down as if he had woken up, and his eyes deepened again; "Yes, I must be crazy to believe what you said. How can I believe you, such a vicious woman?

"Real, I didn't want you to believe it. I just hope you can get out of here right away."

"Well, you'd better take care of yourself." After saying that, he waved his sleeve robe. He looked at her coldly and walked away.

"Wait..." She suddenly turned around and looked at him with a bitter face.

There is an evil smile on the corners of his mouth. Is this woman playing an indulgent trick?

"Why, I can't bear to leave?"

His playful words made Su Nianwei's eardrums prick.

"No." She refused like cold water.

"I want to know when the dust beads will be given to me."

He raised his sword eyebrows, and a thick fire flashed through his black pupils; "This king has his own determination. On the day when the water comes, I will hand it over to you.

"I hope you will abide by this gentleman's promise and keep your promise!"

...........................................................

A few days later, Qiushuifang has an unprecedented tranquility.

Sitting by the lake, in addition to chatting with Axiang, Su Nianwei felt dead all around.

What the hell is going on? After returning from the border gate, the two little ghosts, Dongling Chutian and Dongling Xuehan, never came to see her again.

"Sister Nian... Did you see the fish? Seeing Su Nianwei's sad face, A Xiang approached her and asked doubtfully.

Su Nianwei shook his head listlessly; "No, this fish is not so easy to see!"

"Then you didn't see the fish. Why did you stare at the lake for so long?"

"I'm thinking that no one in the palace has come to see me for so many days. It's really boring."

After listening to Su Nianwei's words, Ah Xiang suddenly looked around mysteriously and found that there were no suspicious people, and then she took Su Nianwei's hand: "Well, didn't you hear that Sister Nian? The Empress Dowager is now sick. How dares to be presive in the palace? The emperor must be very busy. How can he have time to come here to play!"

"What? "Is the Empress Dowager sick?" Speaking of the Empress Dowager, Su Nianwei immediately thought of the innocent woman on the day of the palace banquet.

A Xiang secretly said, "Yes, after you went on an expedition with the emperor, King Yu took the power alone. Several adults of the Empress Dowager's family had some criticism, and they were all given by King Yu. Ah Xiang said as he put on a "cut" posture.

"What? Kill them all?" Su Nianwei was afraid for a while at the same time. Although this Dongling Xiu wants to dominate the government and the opposition, it doesn't have to be so vicious! Those are all the people who are guaranteed by the Empress Dowager!

"If you kill it, it's not killed, but it's no different from death!"

"How do you say that?"

"It's just removing the official position, degrading the status, and reducing the title."

"Just speak clearly. I thought it was killing people!"

"How can that be? They are all court officials. Who dares to kill them!"

"How could the Empress Dowager..."

Speaking of this, A Xiang suddenly stretched out his hands and held his chin and said regretfully; "Alas, the ministers of the Empress Dowager's mother's family will not put themselves in the place of the Empress Dowager. They are determined to frustrate King Yu's spirit. This is good. After offending King Yu, he wanted the empress dowager to protect them. The Empress Dowager was originally a woman, and she did not hold real power in her hands. For Yu Wang, an enlightened official fox, she is a weak woman. Who is her opponent?

"So..."

"So in a fit of anger, I got sick!"

"Is it serious?" Su Nianwei asked with some worries. First, she was worried that Chu Tian would be sad, and second, she did feel sorry for the unique empress dowager.

A Xiang nodded; "I heard that it seems to have vomited blood."

"Ah - what should I do?" What a jealous beauty. Such a beautiful woman, if she dies like this, then God is really unfair.

"How does Ah Xiang know? This is an internal matter of the emperor, and it's not my turn to intervene." After saying that, A Xiang clapped the dust in his hands with an insignificant face.

"Well, that's right. We can't control it. It's just that the emperor is so busy, so what is the kid Xue Han doing? Su Nianwei sighed and complained softly.

"Of course, I'm busy with the visit of the prince of the neighboring country."

Huh? Is it Wuqi?" Su Nianwei once heard the cold snow in Dongling mention when he traveled in the suburbs. But when asked about Chang Qingzhu, the topic opened again. This matter was later abandoned due to the expedition. At this moment, when it is mentioned again, Su Nianwei is inevitably a little excited. Because she may know who is in the hands of the dust beads, one of the four fairy beads.

A Xiang looked at Su Nianwei strangely and said slowly; "It seems!"

"When will they come?" Su Nianwei held Ah Xiang's thin shoulder with some excitement.

"They... They... Who is it?" Sister Nian is so strange today. Her words and actions are different from the past. Ah Xiang is really scared.

"It's those people from the Wuqi Kingdom."

"Uh... A Xiang doesn't know..."

"Then can you help me inquire about it?"

"This... Sister Nian... Why do you know this?"

Su Nianwei's black pupil turned around and said with a gentle smile, "I join in the fun and want to see what the people of Wuyi look like."

A Xiang said with tears and laughter, "It seems to be the same as us!"

"Anyway, I just want to see it. Please take a look for me!"

"All right!"

......................................

"The quack... A quack doctor... They are all quack doctors!"

In Fengyi Palace, the teenager wearing a golden dragon crown and a bright yellow dragon robe shouted angrily at a group of imperial doctors kneeling under the steps.

"The emperor's anger... Redating anger..." Several old men in white couldn't help kowtowing and begging for mercy.

There is a little gloom and anger in Dongling Chutian's indifferent eyes; "Is there nothing but to make me calm down? I can't even save my mother. What's the use of you?

"I deserve to die... Please forgive me."

"You... You..."

"The Empress's stubborn illness has been many years, and the phoenix body is already weak. In addition, the emperor's expedition a few days ago, the Empress was too worried and her qi and blood were not smooth, which led to the aggravation of the condition. Now I want to recover, I'm afraid..."

"Don't say any more!" Dongling Chutian clenched his fists and his nails fell deep into the seams. The green handsome face and the appearance of gritting teeth and forbearance are really heartbreaking.

"Emperor... The emperor..."

Suddenly, the empress dowager's filigree voice came from the phoenix couch.

The sound is ethereal and light, so faint that people think it is an illusion.

Dongling Chutian looked happy and immediately turned around and ran to the phoenix couch behind the bead curtain.

"Mother... Mother... Are you awake?

The thin and boneless soft silk protruded from the brocade quilt through the light veil red curtain. Dongling Chutian held her tightly in his arms and stared at the pale mother lying on the couch with a sad face.

"Emperor... Is there no cure for the mother's illness? Cough--" A heartbreaking cough suddenly scared the group of white-haired imperial doctors outside the stage like a sieve.

"Queen Mother... Queen Mother... What's wrong with you?" Dongling Chutian clenched his teeth tightly while cheering for the empress dowager, as if he was afraid that the weak man would disappear away from him at any time.

"Emperor... Mother is fine!"

"Queen Mother... Don't worry, I will find a way to cure your illness.

Looking at this high-willed teenager, his handsome facial features are extremely similar to his father's. At this time, his black pupils were tearful, and his he-minded appearance was painful in her heart. She knew that her illness was incurable, but when she saw her emperor, she wanted to survive.

"The mother understands. Emperor, these days, you have been by your mother's side. Who will do the affairs in the court... By whom... Cough, take care of it?"

"I..."

"Tell your mother!"

Dongling Chutian has not been in court for many days. Although the affairs in the court are temporarily taken care of by Bai Shuge, the substantive power is still decided by Dongling Xiu.

"Mother, I have my own arrangement for this matter, so you don't need to ask more. Get well first, and then discuss it!"

"However, if you are not in charge of politics in the court, how can your mother get better? You also know how dangerous the down situation is, and you and I can't choose. So... Cough..."

"Queen Mother..."

"So you have to study hard and study hard. Seek blessings for the people and for the people... Life..."

"Mother, I know all about it. Just have a good rest and don't talk, okay?"

"No... If the mother doesn't say it now, I'm afraid she won't be able to say it again..."

Dongling Chutian clenched her hand with a painful face; "No..."

The tone of the man in the couch became weaker and weaker; "by the way, Huanger, didn't you hear that the prince of the Wuqi Kingdom is coming to repair the tower?"

"This matter has been handed over to Xue Han. So the mother doesn't have to worry about it.

"How can you not worry about it? The emperor... Cough... You are the king of the Eastern Qin Dynasty, and how important it is to receive Prince Wu. Didn't you neglect them when you asked Xue Han to greet them?

"I... I..."

"The friendly exchange between the two countries is the biggest regret of your father's life. Now that the heavy responsibility falls into your hands, you must not neglect it! If the two countries go to war, the people will be lost in life, so they can't start a war unless they have to.

"I understand!"

"Then you step back, my family... I'm tired of my family. Cough..."

The far-reaching and hoarse cough made Dongling Chutian's heart suddenly, and he knew the meaning of what his mother said. Yes, she no longer treats him as a child, but as a king with heavy responsibilities and shoulders the people.

He lowered his eyes sadly and said quietly, "I know, you can have a good rest, and I will come again."

"You don't have to come before Prince Shuta leaves. The body of the mourning family should still survive!"

"Queen Mother..."

"Recede!"

Out of Fengyi Palace, Dongling Chutian looked at the blue sky and suddenly turned gray.

It's as gloomy and obscure as my mood at this moment.

In the huge palace, he has an unprecedented loneliness. At this moment, he doesn't know where to go except for his stepmother's Fengyi Palace?

He was at a loss and stepped on a deep step, but he didn't know where he was.

Out of the window, the thin rain filaments are as dense as Su Nianwei's mood at this moment.

Her eyes are like autumn water, staring at the blue lake in the distance with a trace of pity. The ripples hit by rain silk make her feel how boring she is now.

Suddenly, a familiar figure broke into her sight.

The young man's golden-crowned dragon robe walks in the rain with a melancholy look.

The fresh and hazy scene seemed to have entered her heart with a smell of aging for a long time.

Little ghost emperor... Su Nianwei exclaimed from the bottom of his heart, and he opened the door. He took out an umbrella and chased him out.

In the rain, she was dressed in white, with a light posture and worried eyes, which came into his sight like a fairy.

The hair on his forehead is slightly wet, and his eyebrows and eyes are stained with crystal water.

The handsome facial features looked at her with a trace of sadness and a trace of trance.

She was slightly stunned and settled in place. After looking at each other for a long time, she came to her senses.

"Little ghost..... Why are you here? It's raining. Why is there no one to wait for you!" This is a golden body. If there is a mistake, Su Nianwei can't take responsibility. Immediately, he handed over the umbrella to shield him from all the wind and rain.

Dongling Chutian's heart warmed up, took the oil umbrella and stood side by side with her; "I was upset, and then retreated all the people. I want to calm down and walk here unconsciously.

"Then go to the first house. It will rain heavily in a while, okay?" After saying that, Su Nianwei took his cold hand and suddenly ran to the pavilion of Qiushuifang.

Holding her white and delicate palm, his heart was full of gloomy heart, as if he was suddenly cheerful. It was like a bright warm sun, shining straight in.

This woman is really different.

"Come in, come in, kid, don't punish, come into the house!" Su Nianwei opened the door and saw Dongling Chu Tian looking at herself dullly, so she pulled him into the room with some puzzlement.

"I..."

Before Dongling Chutian finished speaking, Su Nianwei spread out his chair and poured tea; "Take a sip of hot tea, and then take off your robe."

"What?" Dongling Chutian took the cup, and his face was stunned.

Su Nianwei looked at him with a smile; "Are you afraid?"

Dongling Chu Tian's handsome face flashed a faint blush; "I'm not afraid, I just don't want to take it off."

"If you don't want to take it off, don't take it off. Look at your stubborn appearance. By the way, you look so ugly. Are you in a bad mood?"

"I..." Speaking of this, Dongling Chutian felt sad. After thinking of his mother, he didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Su Nianwei thought carefully and guessed what was thinking in Dongling Chutian's heart. He immediately smiled and said, "I know your mother is ill, but you don't have to worry. Jiren has his own nature."

"I understand this... But..."

But what is it? What happened? Tell me?" Su Nianwei leaned over and asked with a concerned face. It's not that she misses the eight women, but she is really worried about the little guy Dongling Chutian. At a young age, I won't say that my father died. Now the emperor is not only responsible, but also the wolf ambition of Dongling Xiu. Now, his mother is also seriously ill, and his pressure can be imagined.

"Do you really want to hear it?"

"Yes, I can't help you, but I can share it!"

"Okay, I'll tell you."
