Perhaps because I heard Huang Tianba’s last words, I calmed down to a certain extent that night. I no longer suffered from the torment of ice and fire, but only had a night of random dreams.

The dream was very confusing. I saw many things, like the shadow puppet show I watched when I was a child. Countless people and things passed by in front of me scene by scene. I saw the magnificent courtyard, each one in their 28s, like flower buds.

They were just beauties waiting to bloom; the next moment, they were all lying in a pool of blood, turned into cold corpses, their eyes clearly lost their agility and vitality, staring straight at me, I was so scared that I was covered in cold sweats

, stepped back step by step, but in the blink of an eye, the beauties in front of him all turned into concubines in the imperial city wearing gold and silver, with beautiful faces.

Xu Youling, Shen Rou, Chang Qing, Liu Li... and Yang Jinqiao.

The strange thing is that I haven't thought of her for a long time.

Speaking of which, she has been gone for so many years, and I was really sad for her death at first, but now that I think about it, maybe she was lucky to be gone.

Although this woman is a concubine with a poor family background, she has a very good character. If she is really asked to fall among the women in the harem and become a concubine who can only rely on trickery to win the favor of a man, how can she be willing to do so?

?

However, recalling what she said to me at the beginning - "I know very well what I want, and as long as the goal remains unchanged, I will not leave the path I want to take." Although it touched me greatly, I didn't

I know what she wants, but I don’t know whether she got it until she dies.

And what about me?

After all these years of going around in circles, what have I gained in the end?

Liu Saner has completely left me; my daughter has been found by Pei Yuanhao; even I have fallen into his hands.

Thinking of this, my heart felt depressed, as if a stone was pressing on my chest, and my breathing was not smooth. I frowned slightly and tried to struggle. At this moment, the feeling of depression became heavier. I felt that my chin

He was pinched and opened his mouth, and something warm entered his mouth.

Suddenly, the bitter taste filled the air, and I choked and coughed.

"Cough cough...cough cough cough..."

"Hey, be careful!"

A familiar voice sounded in my ears. Although the taste was bitter, it flowed into my throat, but it quickly brought a burst of warmth and dispelled the coldness in my body. I suddenly gained some strength, slowly opened my eyes, and

I saw Mu Hua sitting by the bed, holding a silver spoon in his hand and feeding something into my mouth.

As soon as she saw me opening my eyes, her eyes lit up: "You're awake."

"..."

I opened my mouth and wanted to say something, but my throat was hoarse and I couldn't speak. I only moved my lips hollowly. She reached out and touched my forehead, squeezed my hand again, and secretly grew

He took a breath: "It's okay, it's okay."

After saying that, she fed me a few more mouthfuls of the decoction, then took out the handkerchief from her sleeve and gently wiped the concoction around my mouth.

It should be early morning at this time, and the morning light outside the house shone in through the window paper, giving everything around her a light gauze-like sheen. She was sitting on the edge of the bed, her beautiful face looking a little pale due to fatigue,

But there is a strange tenderness under the morning light.

At this time, I couldn't help but think of the time when the plague was rampant in Yangzhou City. She was seeing doctors and delivering medicine to the victims in the heavy snow. Normally, she was just average-looking, but this time, she was so beautiful.

One cannot look away.

I lowered my eyelids gently, and accidentally saw a person standing at the door. I took a closer look, and it was Huang Tianba. He seemed to have just walked in, with one hand still on the door, but there was no sound at all.

Keep looking at our side.

Those charming eyes seemed to have a flash of water-like light at this moment.

Mu Hua didn't notice at all. He fed me a few more spoons of soup, wiped my mouth with a handkerchief, and said calmly: "I'm too lazy to care about your business, but I lost all my best dowry in this bowl.

The medicine is in it, you'd better not die in my house."

After saying that, he wiped the corners of my mouth again and was about to get up and leave. When he turned around, he saw Huang Tianba standing there.

She was stunned for a moment, then walked over. Before Huang Tianba could say anything, she looked at him, then looked back at me, and sneered: "Why, I haven't seen enough before, and now I want to come over to see it."

?"

Huang Tianba's face darkened slightly and said, "Don't think so wildly."

"Am I thinking wildly? So you didn't come here to see her?"

"...I just came over to see if she was awake."

"Hmph, let me tell you, if I were just here, you wouldn't be so diligent." Mu Hua said coldly: "But don't forget, that man is also here now, so you'd better be cautious."

Huang Tianba gritted his teeth, but didn't say anything after all. Instead, he walked towards me, looked down at me, and said softly: "Are you feeling better?"

I nodded slightly, but subconsciously looked outside.

I still remember that before he fell into coma, Pei Yuanhao said he would take me away. Now that I have woken up, will he take me back? When I think of this, my eyes also flash with uneasiness.

Huang Tianba seemed to understand what I was thinking, and said softly: "Don't be afraid. As long as you don't want to leave, no one can force you. I won't let him take you away."

After listening to his words, I felt a little relieved.

But Mu Hua, who was standing aside, his face slowly darkened at this time.

Although I regained my consciousness, I was still not in good spirits. I had been drowsy and sleepy for the past two days, less often when I was awake, and more when I was in a trance. I finally regained consciousness a little this day, and when I opened my eyes slightly, I saw Mu Hua.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at me in trance.

At this time, it was also early morning, but the morning light shone on her face, but it was a condensed paleness, with a faint chill. Even the eyes did not have any soft light, but seemed to be frozen by something.

It's like being frozen.

I don’t know why, but looking at her like this, I feel a little uneasy.

At this moment, the ajar door was pushed open. When Mu Hua heard the sound, she hurriedly stood up and walked over. She saw Huang Tianba walking in. She frowned and said, "What's the matter?"

"Is she awake?"

"Why do you care so much about her?"

"..." Huang Tianba was silent for a moment and said, "I just want to tell her something."

After saying that, he walked over gently. Mu Hua stood at the door and never looked back. Just when Huang Tianba just walked over, she suddenly said: "In your heart, she is much more important than me, right?

”

Huang Tianba's steps froze.

Mu Hua also turned around and stared at him: "If it were me who was going to die today, would you come over every three days to see me?"

Huang Tianba frowned, turned to look at her, and said, "Mu Hua, I thought I made it clear that day. She and I don't have the kind of relationship you think!"

"You lied!"

Mu Hua's voice suddenly became louder, seeming to have returned to the atmosphere of their quarrel in the past. Huang Tianba frowned slightly and turned back with a hint of anger, only to see her standing there with a pale face and a tired look.

, the corners of his eyes were red, and the original anger seemed to dissipate at this moment. He sighed, and finally softened his voice: "I really don't."

"..."

"I just came here to see her. I have no other intention. If you don't believe me, you can just watch from the side."

After saying that, he sighed softly, turned around and walked to the bed.

I had been lying down, and at this time I also raised my body slightly, but my hands and feet were weak and I couldn't sit up at all. Huang Tianba hurriedly said: "Lie down quickly, don't get up."

I looked at him panting, then at Mu Hua, and said, "I'm sorry, I——"

Huang Tianba shook his head and said solemnly: "Don't think too much. I said, as long as you don't want to, no one can take you away. You can take care of yourself with peace of mind."

Having said that, I felt really sorry for the discord between him and Mu Hua, especially when Mu Hua had always doubted the relationship between me and him. Thinking of this, I turned around and

Wanting to say something to Mu Hua who was standing by the door, she turned around and slammed the door and walked out.

I felt more and more uneasy, and turned to look at Huang Tianba: "Master Huang..."

Huang Tianba smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay, she always does this."

Indeed, from the days when I lived in his house, it was common for Mu Hua to get angry and quarrel with him. But I don’t know why. When I think back to when I woke up just now, I saw Mu Hua’s condensed eyes, which always makes me feel uneasy.

It seems like something is about to happen.

Maybe because I slept for too long before, I felt a little more energetic after waking up. I talked to Huang Tianba for a while and then fell asleep for a while.

When I woke up again, before I even opened my eyes, I felt someone sitting by the bed looking at me.

The eyes were familiar, and even the breath was so hot that it made people shudder slightly. The room was extremely quiet, as if it was just me and him. This feeling made my heartbeat also sink, and my breathing couldn't help but be infected.

At a loss.

At this time, I heard his voice ringing in my ears——

"I know you're awake."

"..."

"Open your eyes."

"..." I stubbornly closed my eyes, pretending that I didn't hear anything, and it was pitch black, which was better than seeing someone I didn't want to see.

But just when I thought about it, I felt him leaning down, almost covering me.

I suddenly opened my eyes and looked at him in horror: "What are you going to do?!"

Although his whole body was covering my body, he did not put all his weight down. He supported me on the pillow with one hand, and the other hand was already caressing my cheek. He lowered his head, his forehead almost

The dark eyes that were close to my forehead reflected my frightened expression.
