"You said, you don't remember?"

Being stared at by his hot eyes, my skin felt a little hot, but I still stood there numbly, as calm as if nothing had happened: "Yes."

A hand reached over and pinched my chin.

I don’t know whether he used force intentionally or couldn’t control it. I just felt that those two fingers were like iron pliers, and my jaw seemed to be crushed. I gritted my teeth and was lifted up, facing the pair of eyes that concealed the violent storm. Eyes.

He is obviously angry.

"Say it again."

"Weichen doesn't remember."

When I finished saying this, I clenched my fists subconsciously.

Saying I don't care means I don't care, but it doesn't mean I'm not afraid. Besides, with my current body and current situation, if he really wants to hit me, there's nothing I can do about it. I even feel that he's slightly convulsed. The next moment, he was about to let go of my chin and slap my face.

That kind of fear made me tremble slightly.

However, the expected pain never came.

His hand slowly opened and pinched my cheek, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, but that smile was completely devoid of any kindness, only revealing a strong bloodthirsty cruelty: "Yue—— Qing——Baby!"

"..."

"You still feel that you have been wronged, don't you?"

Aggrieved? I raised my eyebrows and looked at him seriously: "Wei Chen is not aggrieved. In the case of Concubine Xu Xian, Wei Chen personally confessed to the crime, so it cannot be said to be a grievance."

There was another anger between his brows.

"It's just that all the minor officials have forgotten what happened back then."

"..."

"If the emperor wants to blame you, the humble ministers will never complain, let alone say they are wronged."

After I said these words calmly, I lowered my eyelids and stopped talking with a bit of tiredness. Pei Yuanhao didn't speak immediately, but I could feel his breathing getting tighter and tighter, and he kept pinching my cheeks. Looking at me, after an unknown amount of time, he suddenly said: "Yue Qingying, do you think that I promised Liu Qinghan not to touch you or you until the Jiangnan matter is over, and you can do whatever you want in front of me! ”

"...!"

My heart skipped a beat.

Until Jiangnan is over, don’t touch me or us!

Is this—could this be what Qinghan and he were talking about when they were alone at the entrance of the waterfall?!

I looked up at Pei Yuanhao in astonishment. There was still some lingering anger on his face: "I can't move you, I can't move you! He's so brave!"

His anger did not frighten me. Instead, an indescribable sourness welled up in my heart. I couldn't help but turn my eyes red - it turned out that he had not really given up on me.

Don't move me, don't move us, this is his last perseverance, even in the face of his dream, he is not willing to give up like this.

But, Qinghan, Qinghan, you are so stupid...

Do you think the agreement is a real agreement? Do you think this man will really keep the agreement and not touch me or us? You are really too naive and don’t understand Pei Yuanhao as the emperor!

If he really kept his promise, how could I have gotten to where I am today? How could you and I have gotten to where we are today?

The pain that was about to crush my jaw hit me, and I suddenly came back to my senses. I saw Pei Yuanhao staring at me without blinking, his eyes slightly narrowed with unspeakable danger: "He has been in front of me all the time.

Be careful, but after I followed you down the valley, you actually dared to negotiate with me and put forward conditions! What on earth did you do down in the valley?!"

Hearing this sentence, a sneer suddenly appeared in my eyes.

It turns out that he was still thinking about this - what did we do at the bottom of the valley? A man and a woman were alone away from the hustle and bustle of the world for those days. He and I have already been in love, and we have the status of husband and wife. What can we do?

I was so impulsive that I really wanted to say these words, but then I thought about how Qinghan was still serving as an official. After all, my life and his life were still in the hands of the man in front of me, so I gritted my teeth.

, finally endured it.

But he didn't give up so easily, and held my face up hard: "Don't tell me, you've even forgotten this."

This time, I really laughed.

Forgot? Of course I won’t forget.

People, because they seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, are afraid of the harm caused by painful memories, so they slowly forget these memories and only give these memories a general mark - pain; but happy memories are different, every moment and moment.

It is sweet. You can take it out and reflect on it slowly when you face pain and setbacks in the future, and absorb the power of happiness to overcome difficulties and face setbacks.

My reliance on survival is Li'er; and my strength to survive is those happy memories.

"I haven't forgotten these things. It's just - it's inconvenient to say."

After hearing my words, the fire in his eyes suddenly burned up.

At this moment, Chang Qing suddenly walked in from outside the door.

Pei Yuanhao's hand was still squeezing my face, and he didn't relax at all. The pain made me grit my teeth. He didn't look back, but said solemnly: "Get out!"

"Your Majesty," Chang Qing was shocked when she saw this scene, but she did not leave. She stood at the door and said, "Your Majesty, I have something important to do—"

"Get out!"

"Your Majesty."

"I'm letting you out!"

"Qing Ying had a miscarriage back then because she was harmed by someone else!"

Chang Qing's voice was uncontrollable and she spoke loudly, and the whole room fell silent for a while.

The fingers holding my cheek froze, and my own breathing was suffocated. I saw Pei Yuanhao staring at me with wide eyes, a look of astonishment in his eyes, and then slowly turned his head: "You said

What?"

Chang Qing's face turned red, and she said with some hesitation: "I just brought Mingzhu and the others there, and suddenly I thought that Concubine Xian, and Qing Ying were pregnant together, but something happened to them one after the other.

Concubine Chen felt something was suspicious, so she asked Mingzhu; she kept hesitating and hesitant, and was pressed by Concubine Chen until the end, and then she admitted that it was Concubine Shen who was jealous and gave Qingying the medicine that is taboo for pregnant women."

"Drugs contraindicated by pregnant women? How did she do it?"

Chang Qing turned around and waved her hand, and Xiao Fuzi and the others immediately pushed Mingzhu in: "Speak for yourself!"

Mingzhu knelt on the ground, trembling and not daring to raise her head, and said: "Your Majesty, these are all done by the noble concubine and have nothing to do with the slaves."

"I want you to tell me what's going on!"

Pei Yuanhao gritted his teeth and spoke word by word. I almost felt as if he was going to crush and destroy everyone in front of him in the next moment. Mingzhu was so frightened that he almost fainted and started crying, one line at a time.

: "That one

The imperial concubine’s family sent fireworks into the palace and distributed them to the ladies in each palace. The servants only found out afterwards that the imperial concubine had tampered with the fireworks distributed to Fangcaotang and added some banned powder to them.”<

/p>

Pei Yuanhao gritted his teeth: "Keep talking——!"

Mingzhu could only continue to cry: "That night, the emperor came to the Yuhua Palace. The imperial concubine drank wine with the emperor, but she said that she - her period of trust had expired and she could not serve the emperor. At that time, the slaves also felt strange, because

, because her letter period is not those days..."

When Pei Yuanhao heard this, he could hardly stand still. After a while, he turned his head and looked at my face, which was as pale as paper.

Mingzhu suddenly crawled over on her knees and hugged my leg: "Master Yue, this matter really has nothing to do with me. I didn't do it. I didn't expect that the imperial concubine would harm you like that. It really has nothing to do with me.

Don’t blame me for what happened!”

My eyes had been staring blankly in front of me, but I didn't seem to know what I was looking at. At this time, I slowly lowered my head, my vision was blurred, and I saw her figure in a daze, and her tearful pleas became increasingly blurry.

, even her crying gradually became distant.

Everything around me and my mind were blank at this moment.

I was shaken by her pull, and I was a little unsteady on my feet. I lowered my head and said vaguely: "Since...it's none of your business..."

"Master Yue..."

"Then, it doesn't matter."

Listening to my weak voice, both Pei Yuanhao and Chang Qing turned to look at me. I raised my head randomly and wanted to walk out: "I, I really don't remember..."

"..."

"Qingying!"

"No, don't follow me again——"

Before I finished speaking, I felt like the world was spinning in front of my eyes, and I fell down.

I thought I was strong enough and didn't suffer any injuries. It wasn't until the moment I lost consciousness that I realized that everything was just superficial strength, including the injuries accumulated after falling to the bottom, fatigue, and the long journey back to the capital at starry night.

The hard work finally broke out at this moment.

I was trapped in a familiar dream, surrounded by blood-red colors. I was drowned, unable to struggle out, and fell into a deep sleep for who knows how long.

When I finally opened my eyes, I felt that my surroundings were filled with red blood and I couldn't see anything. I could only hear my own heartbeat and heavy breathing ringing in my ears, which was so depressing that I almost suffocated.

A pair of hands reached over and held my shoulders: "Qingying!"

It’s Chang Qing’s voice.

Her gentle and low voice gave me some comfort. I slowly turned around and saw her sitting on the edge of the bed looking at me with concern. She reached out and wiped the cold sweat on my forehead: "Are you feeling better?"

"..." I'm still stuck in a nightmare and can't speak.

"Having a nightmare, right?"

Seeing that I was in a daze, neither speaking nor reacting, she turned around and waved her hand. Mother Wu immediately brought a small bowl to my mouth. When I opened my mouth, a warm smell with the fragrance of rice came out.

The sweet juice flowed into the mouth.

It's rice soup.

Chang Qing asked her to feed me a few more sips before asking: "Are you feeling better?"

My mind was settled, but I was still a little worried, and I looked at her uneasily: "I——"

"You fainted, and the emperor brought you here."

He...?

I frowned subconsciously and then saw Nanny Wu and Shui Xiu standing aside carefully, not daring to speak easily. Chang Qing stretched out her hand to cover the back of my cold hand and said softly: "Are you okay?"

I didn't feel like talking for a while, I just shook my head silently.

"Your Majesty, you are very angry." She said, looking at me hesitantly: "After sending you here, he left. Shen Rou has been deposed. How to deal with it? I don't know yet.

, but - at least the truth is revealed."

The truth is revealed?

I thought about these four words in my heart, and I just felt that everything was so boring.

Chang Qing looked into my indifferent eyes and whispered: "Don't you want to think about all this again?"

Hearing her ask this, I remembered that she had forced Mingzhu to ask about my miscarriage. Looking at me like this, I was afraid that she would misunderstand that I thought she was troublesome, so I shook my head quickly: "Mother, I am not like this."

Meaning."

She sighed.

After all, this matter is not her fault, nor is it my fault, but now it seems that she and I are the ones who are sad. I held her hand behind my back and wanted to comfort her, but I heard her say: "

The emperor is not having a good time now."

"..."

"The Shen family's rebellion case needs to be tried, and the Queen Mother's funeral has to be handled. Now everyone has reported the misdeeds of the imperial concubine in the harem, as well as the affairs in Jiangnan, and the papers have been sent to her in piles... Your Majesty, he

, I have been in the Imperial Study Room for three consecutive days without even closing my eyes."

"..."

I lowered my eyes indifferently and sat on the bedside.

Chang Qing said: "Qingying, what's wrong with you?"

"What?"

"Since I found you this time, something has been wrong with you. You don't seem to want to see anything, you don't want to hear anything, and you don't want to care about anything. Even your own affairs, you--"

"Mother," I interrupted her, hesitated, and said, "Qingying is just tired."

Yes, I'm just tired.

Until now, Pei Yuanhao and I have still not been able to end the fight completely, and Qinghan - I thought I could fly away with him, find Li'er, and live a life that belongs to us. I have never had such an urgent hope in half my life.

I even tried to force him, but I didn’t expect that such expectations would eventually be shattered.

I'm really tired.

She frowned slightly.

For a moment, the room became quiet. She sat by the bed and looked at me for a long time, and finally said slowly: "Qingying, who in this palace is not tired?"

"..."

"Who has a dream in their heart that cannot be realized?"

"..."

"Do you really think it will be better if you give up when you are tired?"

Would it be better if you gave up?

No, I'm tired, so tired that I can hardly take the next step, but I don't want to give up.

Even Qinghan dared to put forward such conditions to Pei Yuanhao. Even he hasn't given up yet. How could I be willing to give up like this?

Feeling that my hand on the bed slowly tightened, and a trace of anger seemed to rise in his eyes, Chang Qing said: "I know that you are suffering in your heart, and I also know your pain. No one

You may feel the same way, but no matter what, you must remember that it is not easy for you to get to where you are today, and it is not easy for anyone."

"...Empress."

"Your Majesty, it's not easy for him either."

Hearing this sentence, my heart sank again.

I don’t know what Chang Qing said. He was very angry and what it was like. I don’t know what kind of hard life he had these days. No one can feel the pain of others. Me and him

, this is true for each other.

People who don’t feel pain don’t suffer.

I sat quietly on the bedside without saying anything, but there was a sound of footsteps outside, and I saw Xing'er running to the door, pushing open the ajar door, and whispered: "Your Majesty, the Emperor has come to see Master Yue again.

."

When Chang Qing heard this, she hurriedly said to me: "In the past few days, the emperor will take time to come and see you. You——"

I thought about it and slowly lay down: "Mother, just say that I woke up and fell asleep again."

Chang Qing frowned: "Qingying!" This time, her tone was a little harsh, with a hint of reproach. I stood up and said calmly: "The empress also said that the emperor is tired these days.

It’s not easy.”

"Then you——"

"Then this is the best that Qingying can do."

She stood by the bed, thought about what I said, and seemed to understand. She sighed softly, and I slowly lay down towards the wall and slowly closed my eyes.

As soon as she closed her eyes, she heard the door being pushed open. Chang Qing seemed to rush forward and whispered: "I pay homage to the emperor."

A hoarse voice that changed its tone said: "Where is she?"

"Qing Ying - she just woke up, but she's not feeling well yet. She drank some soup, talked to my concubine for a while, and then fell asleep again."

"..."

He didn't speak, and neither did the people around him, but as if they had received the order, their footsteps sounded in unison, and they walked out quietly.

But there was a sound of footsteps, slowly approaching the bed.

I curled up in the thin quilt and frowned involuntarily. I felt a breath coming from behind and covering my body. His breathing was not heavy, but a little disordered. He walked to the bed and did not move again.

, as if looking at me all the time.

I was still lying calmly.
