Chapter 183 Defei's Mind
She pointed to Merlin in front of her and smiled at Murong Xun, "Do you know the name of that Merlin?"
Before Murong Xun could answer, Concubine De continued to say, "Yiyuan, Yiyuan, there is a word Yi in the name of a woman, so Your Majesty changed the name of this plum garden to Yiyuan, because that beautiful woman likes to see plum blossoms!"
Murong Xun looked at it coldly and swept the garden with indifferent eyes. It was no longer possible to raise any ripples in his heart, just like when Zhao Che pointed to the large piece of tricolor chrysanthemums. Can the man who once loved deep into the bone marrow now only be like a bystander mentality?
Murong Xun turned her eyes to the face of Concubine De. There was deep sadness and despair on her face, but she did not need other people's pity. She was like a lily blooming in the deep valley. Even if there was no audience, she could open up her own beauty, not alone, but only herself. The beauty.
"I was only 16 years old when I entered the palace. I was a woman who grew up in the desert, as free as an eagle. At that time, I hated why my father sent me to this place where there was no sun until I saw him. He picked me up outside the Zijin Palace. A tall, handsome, gentle and elegant man broke into my vision. All the longings and expectations of my girlhood seemed to be just for the man in front of me!"
"You can feel the joy in my heart. The sweetness of my first love makes my life full of color like a spring breeze!" She suddenly turned her head and looked at Murong Xun, and her eyes were full of excitement and eager expectations.
Murong Xun squinted and thought for a while. She remembered the first time she saw the man under the mask who suddenly broke into her life. His smile seemed to be the most poisonous poison in the world, which made her unable to extricate herself.
First love, that beautiful and strange word, Murong Xun raised a light smile at the corners of his mouth.
Her vibrant eyes dimmed, "But I soon found that I was wrong. This relationship was just my own monologue from the beginning. He didn't love me. This cold and cruel fact made me fall into grief that I couldn't extricate myself."
After a pause, Concubine De continued: "My parents love me very much. My brother and sister-in-law care about me. How calm and simple my original life is, but the Zijin Palace, this tormenting prison, is full of harmful traps. I hit walls everywhere and I am at a loss. Until I offended a concubine favored by His Majesty at that time again, I was so scared that I couldn't do it, but I was also arrogant! My attitude angered the concubine more and more. She wanted to punish me, but at this time, Queen Nan appeared in my life. She saved me and severely punished the concubine who framed me.
"She is kind and noble, and often enlightens me. After my love falls into darkness, friendship is my only spiritual support. She may not know how much she has influenced me!" Concubine De smiled, and then a firm hatred appeared on her face, "But what's the use of kindness in this place where people don't spit out their tongues!" Isn't what happened to her not enough to explain everything?
Murong Xun sighed deeply. Under the wide robe, her fingers were tightly clasped together. She looked at the face of Concubine De and sincerely praised the unstained soul in the Zijin Palace, but her existence itself was already her own sadness, and she should no longer feel it for her. Unfortunately.
It seems that she hasn't said so much for a long time. Concubine De smiled at Murong Xun, touched her cheek, and smiled gently like a girl, "I've eaten too much wine today. It's nonsense. Don't take it to heart, princess!"
Murong Xun smiled faintly. She looked at Concubine De thoughtfully and wondered that she was almost pregnant at the same time as Concubine De. So if her child was raised by Concubine De, where would Concubine De's child go?
She suddenly remembered that when Yuzhi came to Chang'an, Concubine De asked him to come. Later, Yuzhi was attacked by people in the dark palace. I don't know if it has anything to do with this? Perhaps, Defei's child was just hidden by Zhao Che. Is there anything more tragic in the world than this?
Murong Xun withdrew her eyes. She didn't want to look at this woman with pity. If she could, she just wanted to express her gratitude.
I don't know when the snowflakes began to fall, small, like salt.
Are women, especially emotional women, destined to bear sadness?
"Thank you!" Defei looked at the erratic snowflakes for a while, and suddenly turned back to Murong Xun and said, "Thank you for staying in Sifang City at the most dangerous time of crisis. It's snowing in Sifang City. Is it snowy? I remember that the snow in Sifang City there fell like goose feathers, and soon the world was covered with silver!"
Murong Xun said, "When my concubine came back, it was starting to snow in Sifang City..."
She talked about the past of Sifang City with Defei again. Defei drank a few more glasses of wine, and her face became more and more flushed.
"The Empress is drunk!" Murong Xun said lightly.
Concubine De looked at Murong Xun deeply, and there was indescribable confusion and confusion in her eyes. She called the little maid of honor and helped herself back. Before leaving, she said to Murong Xun, "I'm very happy today. Thank you!" She stared at the sky in a daze, "Maybe there will be no such opportunity in the future!"
Concubine De went back. Murong Xun was still sitting in the pavilion, and the snowflakes outside were still falling!
She suddenly remembered Dan Ying and didn't know how she was doing now. There has been no news of her since the last time I met her. However, she always faintly believes in the bottom of her heart that Zhao Che will not hurt Dan Ying.
Houyuan Hall.
"What do you think?" Zhao Che's fingers gently tapped on the table, and he couldn't see any emotion on his face.
Murong Yao pondered for a moment and said, "Although Chen Yuzhi may be dissatisfied with your majesty, Weichen dares to guarantee with his life that he absolutely has no bad intentions!"
Zhao Che's worries naturally have a reason. Since Chen Yuzhi already knows that the prince is not the son of Concubine De, will he have other ideas? That was also one of the reasons why he was determined to get rid of Chen Yuzhi, and the other reason was that he was afraid that he would leak the news.
He looked at Murong Yao with gloomy eyes, "Remember what you said today! I can understand that your purpose of saving Chen Yuzhi at the beginning is to hope that he can stabilize the situation of the four parties. After all, the four parties are the gateway to Daxiang and Subei, which is very important for the safety of Daxiang!"
"How is the recent situation of the Huangfu family?" Zhao Che continued to ask.
Murong Yao replied, "As your majesty expected, although the Huangfu family had the instructions of the empress dowager, and the life and death of Huangfu Junhua are now unknown and has restrained, but because Huangfu Shaohua has just won and returned to the court, he still secretly gargan all forces, and his strength is still growing. !"
A smile appeared on Zhao Che's face, "Very good!" He touched his chin. Sooner or later, someone will pull it out by myself!
At this time, Xiao Anzi entered and said a few words in Zhao Che's ear. Zhao Che's face changed a little, and he looked helpless inside. Murong Yao was slightly surprised and quickly lowered his head. Since he met Zhao Che, he had not seen him show such a look.
"You step back!" Zhao Che said.
"Yes!" Murong Yao retreated. He opened the door and went out, and a strong cold wind came towards him. He looked coldly at the snowflakes falling in the sky. Since he came back from Taohua County, he has told Zhao Che about the Jun family, but Zhao Che showed tolerance and generosity, and scolded the Jun family. Murong Yao knew that His Majesty was giving him face, and at the same time This is also a handle, a handle that will always be loyal to Your Majesty.
After a few steps, she met the oncoming summer frost. She was always dressed in blue with white hair.
Murong Yao nodded slightly and passed Xia Shuang by. But at this time, Xia Shuang said gently, "Princess Qin enters the palace!" As he spoke, he walked towards Houyuan Hall.
