Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 351 Life after life, can never make up

Concubine Pei Gui went crazy.

To be precise, Pei Cairen was crazy.

Overnight, she fell from the peak of power, and overnight, she changed from a high-ranking imperial concubine to the lowest-ranking talented person.

It rained lightly that night, mixed with snow particles.

The palace people came and went in a hurry, and they couldn't help hiding their fingers in their sleeves.

The dragon's tail is meandering, like a flying dragon entrenched.

The ice blade-like wind whizzed down from the high platform, and Habayashiro, who was standing along the way, shrank his neck from the cold even though he was wearing thick armor.

The sky was getting dark early, and animal-shaped copper palace lanterns were crouching beside the white jade railings, guarding the heart of the entire empire - the Zichen Palace.

Under the high stone steps, a woman's cry came.

"Your Majesty... Even if you want to punish the concubine's crime, or beat the concubine into the cold palace, you have to let the concubine explain a few words!"

"Your Majesty! Have you forgotten the relationship between my concubine and you for decades?"

"Your Majesty, if you keep refusing to see my concubine, I will just kneel here until you calm down!"

"Your Majesty...Everyone in the world says you are a benevolent king, you wouldn't just watch your concubines die like this, right?"

One is more miserable than the other, and more desperate than the one.

Hearing that, the patrolling guards were also a little frightened.

On such a cold rainy night, the imperial concubine, who had never suffered a bit before, just knelt on the ground, her hair was messed up, her clothes were wet, rain and tears rolled down her face one after another.

No one has ever seen such a embarrassed concubine, oh, no, she is a talented person.

But no one dared to go in to report, and no one dared to step forward to help.

This Pei Cairen was also stubborn, and when the emperor didn't see her, she knelt there until the middle of the night, the emperor couldn't bear it, and got up from the bed with his clothes on.

Cao De hurried forward to support him, held a heater in his hand, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's cold outside, you take this to warm your hands."

The emperor let out a "hmm" and walked towards the entrance of the hall with a somewhat hasty pace.

"Your Majesty..." Pei Cairen raised his head in surprise.

"Pei..." The emperor choked up a single word out of his mouth.

But overnight, the once flourishing Concubine Pei turned into a person who was neither human nor ghost.

His face was pale, his eyes were hollow, his hair was disheveled, and his body was wet.

Not to mention ghosts, ghosts are more spiritual than this.

It looks like it was just fished out of an ice hole deep in hell, a long-haired water monster...

The emperor's eyes dimmed a little, and complex emotions such as pain, regret, intolerance, determination... etc. flashed in his eyes one by one, and finally turned into a kind of gentle and alienated plainness.

Just like he faced civil and military officials.

"Arong..." He called hoarsely, but without any extra emotion, "Get up, don't kneel on the ground, I can't bear to watch it. Cao De, I don't need this hand stove, you go and give it to me." Send Pei Cairen, let her warm up."

"Yes..." Cao De hurriedly walked over, "Pei Cairen, get up."

"His Majesty……"

Ah Rong was Pei Cairen's nickname. At this moment, when she heard the emperor suddenly pronounce such a name, she suddenly became emotional.

She ignored Cao De, who was standing aside and drenched in the rain, but looked up at the emperor on the high place, weeping with joy:
"Your Majesty! Did you forgive my concubine? Your Majesty, you haven't forgotten our friendship for many years, have you?"

But as soon as she finished speaking, she heard the emperor's words falling down from the high temple foundation like a wind and snow.

"A Rong, go back, go back and stay in Ye Ting well, I will ask Cao De to arrange a few reliable maid servants, and let them serve you well."

Compared with the coldness in her heart, his words still had some warmth.

But this result made her suffer even more.

The resentment that had been borne for a long time finally collapsed at this moment.

She cried out in grief, crying so much that her whole body prostrated herself on the ground, and bowed in despair to the lofty emperor: "Your Majesty! You are so ruthless to your concubines!"

"Arong..." the emperor read aloud, sighed a long time, and raised his palm empty, as if he wanted to help her up by himself, but in the end he didn't do anything, just stood there quietly. In front of the temple gate, he quietly looked at the woman who had been with him the longest.

His expression was gentle and flat from beginning to end, with the restraint and tolerance that a benevolent king should have.

But only Pei Cairen knew that his gentleness was an illusion acquired over the years.

She has seen his gentle look, seen his laughing look, seen his sad look, and seen his tearful look...

But all these things are not for her.

When Empress Gu died, all his expressions seemed to disappear along with it.

Pei Cairen closed her eyes, a line of bitter and salty tears flowed into the corner of her mouth together with the cold rain.

For most of her life, although she has not been favored, it is also a life of flowers and flowers.

In just a few days, she has experienced the suffering and pain in the world, and endured the cold and injury in the harem...

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! You owe your concubines life after life, and you will never be able to make up for it..." She grabbed the air with both hands and fell down in front of the stone steps.

"Pei Cairen!"

Cao De let out a low cry, and looked at the emperor in front of the hall with some trepidation.

The emperor's face was buried in the shadow of the palace lantern, and no expression or emotion could be seen clearly.

I only heard him say gently and plainly: "Send it back, ask the imperial doctor to take a good look, there must be nothing wrong."

"Yes..." Cao De cast a deep glance at the emperor, then at the talented man on the ground helplessly, shaking his head involuntarily.

"Pei Cairen, why are you bothering?"

The imperial doctor rushed through several palace walls, stepped over several palace doors, came to the desolate and lonely Yeting, and walked around several dark corridors, finally came to the small courtyard where this special Pei Cairen lived .

The women who were trapped here along the way all ran out curiously and looked at the imperial physician with tears in their eyes.

It has been many years, but this is the first time they have seen an imperial doctor come into this dark place!

Usually, those who entered here were lucky enough to eat and wait to die, and those who were unlucky would die suddenly.

Today's emperor is benevolent and tolerant, there are not many concubines in the harem, and fights rarely happen.

Most of the people who live here are female officials who have committed crimes, or a group of women who were sent here during the first emperor's time and lost their chance to be favored without being titled.

What is an imperial physician?
Not even a decent court lady would come here!

This newly demoted talented person has a great background!

Physician Liu greeted her respectfully, and then opened the medicine box.

Since the emperor personally ordered him to take good care of him, they didn't dare to neglect them.

Amidst everyone's speculation and discussion, Imperial Physician Liu diagnosed Pei Cairen's pulse and prescribed medicine.
