Chapter 43 I love you, when will you love me?
I quickly sat up, tidied up my clothes, and heard Ximenque's footsteps at the door.
"Why is it closed?"
"Your Majesty Qibin, the noble concubine has rested."
"Why is it so early? I haven't had dinner yet. What's the purpose of leaving you in the Qingcheng Pavilion? Why don't you go to pass the meal?"
Then there was Grandpa Huang's cautious voice: "Yes!"
Hearing the sound of the outer door getting closer and closer, what is Ximenque going to do? Eunuch Huang said that I fell asleep. Does he still want to come in? I quickly pulled away the quilt beside me and fell asleep with my clothes. Turn around and face the wall, pretending to be asleep.
As expected, Ximenque opened the door and entered the room. But his movements were very light, as if he was afraid of disturbing me. Slowly, I listened to his footsteps slowly approaching, and my breathing began to become heavier with his footsteps.
Ximenque's footsteps paused a few meters behind me, as if he was hesitating to get close.
In a short time, he moved his pace and gently walked to my bedside and sat down.
I can feel that the people behind me are careful and even breathe lightly. If I hadn't heard the conversation between him and Mr. Huang outside just now. I really can't believe that such a gentle breath behind me would come from such a reruly and evil Ximenque.
His hand gently stroked the hair behind me, and then my back was numb. Then help me twist the corner of the quilt
Just as I was considering whether to get up, Luo Qi's cautious voice came from outside: "Your Majesty, dinner is ready."
The person behind him got up gently, walked out of the room, and gently closed the door. I thought I could finally breathe a sigh of relief, but there was a voice outside that made me almost spit blood.
"Your Majesty, dinner is ready."
"If the noble concubine is willing to wake up, please come out and eat together."
My body almost trembled. What does it mean that I am willing to wake up? Did he see that I was pretending to sleep just now? Since I know it, it's really inexplicable that the pace is still so light.
If it were the previous Murong Yu, he would definitely rush out and comment on him. He can't let him play many times. But now Murong Yu is no longer the person who can do whatever he wants.
Too many involuntarily things have subverted her naive thoughts in the fantasy continent. This is a bloodthirsty continent, and there is killing everywhere. The unprepared events made her have to change her previous impulse and simplicity to carefully observe human nature.
Especially after what happened just now, I should reflect on myself. He is the king who holds the power of life and death. Maybe he will get angry when, but I, Murong Yu, only has a head.
So I'm not in a hurry to go out. Luo Qi has been waiting outside. I paused for a while, and the fatigue of the day finally eased a lot. It was time to go out. It seemed that there was another battle without gunpowder tonight.
Luo Qi saw me go out and nod her head and said, "Your Majesty, the emperor has been waiting in the front hall for a long time. The dinner is ready. Is the queen going there now?"
"Go and make a cup of jasmine tea..."
Qingcheng Hall, Front Hall.
Ximenque sat alone at the dinner table, and Grandpa Huang behind him carefully served him.
This scene is very similar to that in the East Palace before, and Mo Youchen is also waiting for me to go back to the palace for dinner early. That scene seemed to have passed for a long time, which made me think it was a matter of my previous life.
Why do I suddenly think of a ghost at this moment? Is it because my guilt is too deep?
Sure enough, people really shouldn't owe too much to others, otherwise their conscience will be condemned everywhere.
I sorted out my emotions and walked over slowly. When Ximenque saw me, he changed his normal smile to his face. After waving his hand to sign off, Grandpa Huang behind him retreated and said with a smile, "I just went out for a while. You went to bed so early. Are you so tired to read the memorial with me?"
For some reason, whenever I see his smile, I like to sing against him.
"How can this be compared to your daily wisdom?" When I said this sentence, I felt how pretentious my words were.
Ximenque smiled secretly, helped me pick up the vegetables, and didn't say anything.
Suddenly he saw the dragonque I was wearing at my waist. His face darkened, and he restrained a little smile.
"That thing is so important to you?"
I followed his eyes and took a look at the green dragon on my waist. I even forgot this thing, but he still remembers it.
It suddenly occurred to me that Qin Huang and I had escaped from the Peony Pavilion to the Sheshui River and were blocked on the shore by Ximenque and Mo Youchen. At that time, Ximenque was so confident that he tied it to Mo Youchen. That confident look seemed to say: I no longer care who he has now, because one day even the dragon chair representing the supreme power will be mine.
But Mo Youchen gave me this token that represents that can stand side by side with the emperor. Only the future queen of Shu deserves the dragonque.
The sincerity of Mo Youchen can be seen from heaven and earth.
But this is no longer what it used to be. Mo Youchen was not here. Ximenque became the emperor of Shu, but I was his royal sister-in-law. Even if I have never fallen in love with Mo Youchen, I can't change this fact.
As for why he made me a noble concubine when he was in power, this is something I haven't figured out so far.
It's just that this Longque does represent the token of the queen of Shu. Since Ximenque is already the emperor, I should not wear this thing again.
I casually untied the dragon'sque around my waist and pushed it flatly in front of Ximenque: "I'll give it back to you!"
Ximenque looked at the little thing with a round phoenix sculpture, and his face was still the same. But I couldn't escape my sharp eyes, and finally let me see the sneer at the corners of his mouth.
It seems to say again: I never cared.
I ignored his emotions. He lowered his head and was eating.
But I heard the voice of the person above my head: "In order to prevent me from getting this country, you didn't hesitate to take the fairy grass, and your hair was all white overnight. Your friendship will not be for your brother. You have been sleeping in separate rooms for the past few months. So you can't pay such a big price for falling in love with him. If it is because of his guilt after his sudden death, this reason can still convince people.
But since the royal brother is dead, you don't have the heart of a certain picture of the throne. Why do you have to pay such a big price? Under the sky. There are only three people who can make Murong Yu willing to pay such a big price, among which the royal brother was exchanged for his own death. As for the remaining two, Qin Huang naturally doesn't have this idea. Are you trying to..."
"Enough..." I don't want him to go on. A scar in my heart seemed to be suddenly uncovered.
I don't know why I did that after Mo Youchen died. Now that I think about it, if it's just for the guilt of Simonque, this reason is a little far-fetched.
I can't deny that I thought of Ye Yu at that time. Only Ye Yu and Yin Xueyuan deserve to sit in the country in my heart. But as the emperor of the Southern Kingdom, Xueyuan is far from this possibility.
Since he promised Ye Yu before the expedition, even if he was willing to be his pawn, he would be promised to be a prosperous emperor. In this case, instead of letting Ximen Que sit as emperor, it is better to take advantage of the situation to master sovereignty and make a commitment to Ye Yu.
But I never thought that the fairy grass has become a necessary thing for me to make this plan, and it is also a thing that I will fail in this plan.
The virulence of mother grass is so bad that you can't have a happy in March after taking it. I knew that this poison must have sequelae. But I didn't expect it to make me gray all night.
The rainy night kept flashing in his mind, Ye Yu's bloodthirsty eyes, and his beautiful face instantly turned into a demon of hell, with the momentum of destroying everything. And my three thousand green silks turned white in an instant that night.
I dare not think about it anymore. I don't want to uncover that scar again.
PS: Chapter 44 The mechanism is too smart. The mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch will be updated tomorrow. It will reveal the first big conspiracy from Murong Yu and Xiao Ye to come out of Taoyuan. Who is the person who has been secretly controlling? Who is the mantis catching the cicada and giving a fatal counterattack? Please look forward to it.
