I looked at him and said very lightly and solemnly: "I do have something I want to say to His Highness."

"You said."

"I wonder if Your Highness still remembers the agreement you made with your slave."

His expression slowly turned cold, like a frosty lake surface with no visible fluctuations or even any temperature below.

I don't know if I feel pain or hope when I say these words at this moment, but after all, a decision is needed between me and him. Now that I have made up my mind, I don't want to let myself be capricious and hurt myself in vain.

"So, I would like to ask if His Highness can pardon this slave and leave the palace."

After saying this, the entire Chengqian Hall suddenly fell silent.

Pei Yuanhao still looked at me, with no fluctuation in the expression on his face. In other words, his face had no expression at all, just a layer of frost. I felt a little cold because of the cold eyes.

He lowered his head gently.

He never spoke, but I could feel his eyes staring at me, which made me uneasy. Cheng Qiandian didn't even make a sound at this moment. He couldn't even hear his own heartbeat. Only his breathing sounded above his head.

By.

One sound, one sound...

The long breath blew the hair in front of my forehead with scalding temperature. As time went by, my whole face seemed to be scalded red, but I still didn't look up at him, I just lowered my head stubbornly, not knowing what was going on.

After a while, I heard him say, with a little smile: "By the way, I almost forgot, you want to go out of the palace."

"..."

"What do you want to do after you leave the palace?"

"..."

"Do a small business? Farm? Or -" His voice lengthened a bit, and he finally said the two words slowly: "Marry?"

I was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked up at him, only to see a gentle smile on his face. His eyes were slightly narrowed, and I couldn't see what kind of gaze he was looking at, but at least such a smile could be seen.

When the sunshine outside shines, it actually looks a bit kind.

I have never seen Pei Yuanhao like this.

For a moment, I was a little at a loss. Looking at him who was completely unfamiliar to me, I couldn't say a word for a while, but I saw him smiling again and said, "What, I'm sorry?"

"No, no."

"No? Are you really planning to go out and get married?"

"..."

I don’t know why he suddenly told me this. It was as if the man in front of me suddenly changed his soul. He looked up at him, still smiling, even with a bit of warmth. I don’t know why, but I suddenly remembered that he was there.

In those days in Yangzhou City, there was such a warm feeling, just like in a dream.

Looking at my dumbfounded expression, he seemed to smile again and said: "Yes, after all, you did your best to help me. You almost lost your life. Just for such a small wish, if I

It would be too unkind to deny you permission." He took another step forward and looked down at me: "Tell me what your plans are for leaving the palace. Now that I am rich all over the world, I will definitely make your dream come true.

”

If anyone else had said this, I would have been overjoyed, but it was him in front of me - my face became paler, as if I had walked into the forest and suddenly faced a thick fog, and I didn't know what to do.

If you step on it, you will know whether it is real or empty.

After a long while, I finally said reluctantly: "I don't have any plans, I'm just taking a step and watching."

"Oh..."

He raised his eyebrows and looked at me, his face still half-smiling.

I felt more and more uneasy. After talking for so long, he still didn’t give me a definite answer as to whether he would give me the opportunity to be released from the palace through amnesty. After thinking about it, he simply gritted his teeth and knelt down: "Can this slave be released under His Highness's amnesty?"

Your Majesty, I am deeply grateful. Your Highness’s gift is something that this servant dare not accept. I would like to thank Your Highness for your generous pardon.”

After saying that, I kowtowed to him.

He stood in front of me and accepted the bow without moving. When I slowly stood up, he looked at me with no expression on his face and said lightly: "Okay, you can go down."

"Your Highness..."

"In two days, there will be a general amnesty in the palace. At that time, I will make your dream come true."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

I was overjoyed and gave him another blessing, but he had already turned around and walked back into the house.

Finally...

Finally heard him speak!

At this moment, my heart that had been hanging on me for a long time finally sank. I breathed a long sigh of relief and turned around to leave. But just after taking two steps, I felt that there seemed to be eyes looking at me from behind. Even though

Without looking back, I could still feel the complete lack of kindness in the eyes, and even the bloodthirsty ferocity.

I suddenly felt a chill in my heart and turned around subconsciously.

But the moment I turned around, the door to Chengqian Hall was closed.

The vermilion door reflected dazzling light under the sunlight, but in a daze, it seemed that the blood color of that night had not faded, and the bloody smell permeated from every corner of the imperial city, slowly staining it.

The corner of my clothes, even my body.

No! No!

I shook my head vigorously - it's all over, it's over!

Pei Yuanhao has agreed to let me out of the palace, and there is no fight in the palace to involve me. I should be almost free!

Only when I thought about this, I felt relieved and hurriedly turned around and left Chengqian Hall.

When we returned to Yeting, Yu'er heard that Eunuch Yu had called me away, and she kept sitting by the bed worriedly. When she saw that I came back safe and sound, she was relieved.

And I saw at a glance that there were four or five large cloth bags piled on her bed.

"Yu'er, what are you——"

"My luggage!" She said with a smile: "I will leave the palace in two days. Of course, I have to pack it in advance. If I leave something behind, I can't come back to get it."

Yes, if you leave something behind, you can't come back to get it.

Somehow, when I heard this witticism, it turned out to be funnier than any joke I had seen in the past. I wiped away the gloom in my heart and became happy. However, looking at her big baggage, I was also a little strange: "How did you come to be like this?"

Multiple pawns?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"Hey, let me show you."

She proudly unfolded the baggage, but at first glance, it made people laugh or cry. Although this girl was usually smart, she was really bad at packing the baggage. However, a few clothes and small toys were careless without being properly arranged.

Wrap it up, no wonder there are so many.

I smiled and walked over to help her fold her clothes again, and then wrapped her usual rewards and sewed them inside the cotton clothes. Time passed quickly while I was busy, and I finally packed her bags at night.

.

Yu'er looked on and was dumbfounded: "Qingying, you are so capable."

"You are too thick." I had already started to pack my own baggage, and while folding clothes, I said: "Looking at how old you are, why don't you know how to pack it? Will you be like this when you become your own family in the future?"

"Be your own boss?"

Yu'er seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly covered her mouth and laughed.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Do you still remember that we said before who we wanted to marry?"

When I heard this sentence, my originally smiling face became a little stiff - she, she, and Ning Yan in the cold palace had indeed thought about who I wanted to marry. Even Yu'er, who was not shy, even said,

But at that time, how could I think of now.

Can I still get married?

Thinking about this, my mood became gloomy, but Yu'er didn't notice it at all. She dragged her chin and said longingly: "I want to marry a businessman. Well, it's better to have three entrances and three exits in the house, and there is such a

A big garden, yes, yes, I also want to raise a dog, a little Pekingese..."

I folded my clothes silently and listened to her description of the life she expected, which would include a bed with wenge wood carvings, a large bronze mirror beside the bed, roses in the yard, and she would make rose wine...

…

"Huh?" As she was talking, Yu'er suddenly stopped and looked at me: "Qingying."

"Huh?"

"Who do you want to marry in the future?"

"Me?"

Who do I want to marry?

It’s not that I haven’t thought about it. In fact, I have sketched that scene thousands of times. The phoenix crown is decorated with flowers and candles are red. My beloved is walking hand in hand with me. No matter how hard the life is, no matter how many twists and turns I have to go through, as long as there is

With him by my side, I enjoy everything.
