Work overtime

Sitting on the chariot, Li Beichen held He Fei in his arms, feeling that the person in his arms was very light, as if he was weightless.

Jiang Yuebai stubbornly followed the chariot with his sword on the grounds of protecting the emperor's safety.

The wind blew gently, and Li Beichen stared at Concubine He, whose face was as pale as paper, and carefully tucked the hair covering her eyes back.

The scent of herbs in his weak breath convinced him that the person in his arms was still alive.

They also looked at each other and laughed in April like this.That was a long, long time ago.

The position of the concubine in his heart can never be replaced.Only he himself knows how important it is.

My heart is sad and dull.

Jiang Yuebai followed behind with Qinggong in hand, the wind blowing her hair and loose clothes.I don't feel tired, but I have a sense of freedom like flying in the wind. The depression caused by the incident with my concubine is released while running.

Li Beichen looked sideways at the woman following him, and saw that she seemed to be looking at a high place in front of her, with a smile on her lips and full of life.

Everything that happened just now in Yanxi Palace seemed to be a dream.

She was like a knife, when she was pulled out of the water, a few drops of water would fall, and in the blink of an eye she would be dried quickly in the sun.

Jiang Yuebai seemed to see something suddenly and smiled, as if there were thousands of begonia trees in bloom.

Li Beichen followed her line of sight and saw two magpies chirping on the branch.

His eyes followed the two magpies jumping around, and there was a little smile in his eyes.

Although not happy.

When Jiang Yuebai noticed Li Beichen's eyes turning away, he only saw his back, looking straight ahead.

After placing the concubine and the concubine in Jingren Palace, Li Beichen ordered Jiang Xian who came with him to check carefully again and prescribed some medicine for internal and external use.

Li Beichen sat in front of the bed without saying a word, while Jiang Yuebai stood silently aside with his sword in his hands and his chest.

"Aren't you going to change your clothes?" Li Beichen squinted his eyes and looked at Jiang Yuebai.

"The minister and concubine follow the order."

Jiang Yuebai wisely followed Mo Yu and left.

The palace attendants also explained that the Queen Mother rushed over.

The mother and son stepped back, closed the windows, and had a conversation in the concubine's bedroom.

Only then did Li Beichen know that after the Queen Mother announced at lunch that she would welcome her cousin Li Changan into the palace, she immediately summoned Concubine He and told her about Li Changan's entry into the palace.The concubine burst into tears immediately, but in the end she said nothing.

The Queen Mother told Li Beichen that she knew everything about the pregnancy and miscarriage of the concubine.It was precisely because she made it clear to Jiang Xian that day that He Fei was infertile, that she decided to choose the young Li Changan to enter the palace.

After listening to the Queen Mother's story, Li Beichen's anger burst out in his chest. For the first time in his life, he lost his temper with his mother: "Mother, you are her aunt, and you can do this. You made the same mistake again and again, pushing her to death!"

The Queen Mother said angrily: "The Ai family did all this for you, how dare you accuse the Ai family here!"

For the first time, Li Beichen responded to such "for you" remarks in a mocking tone:

"So what happened today was all arranged by the queen? Will it be proved below that Xi Ronghua caused the death of the concubine and demoted Xi Ronghua and her children to make way for Li Changan?"

His face was pale, his expression was cold and stern, and he stared at the Queen Mother aggressively.

"presumptuous!"

A snap.

The Queen Mother slapped Li Beichen hard, making her whole body tremble with anger and her face turned pale.

She stared at Li Beichen blankly for a long time, and finally said nothing, flicked her sleeves, and left angrily.

Li Beichen asked the Queen Mother's back, "Why must she die? She is already very pitiful."

The Queen Mother paused and tilted her head. She didn't expect Li Beichen to ask her this.

Her face was cold and her heart was bitter.The fingers slowly tightened, and the nails dug into the palms, making interlaced marks.He sneered and left in silence.

Li Beichen was stunned in place, his face was burning with pain, but this slap made him feel better.

When people are extremely anxious, worried, and angry, they often lose their rationality and think the worst about the other person's character and motives.

Only when you calm down can you think calmly.

Li Beichen thought of Jiang Xian's repeated inspections and determined that there was no sign of poisoning in He Fei.

So could he have misunderstood his mother?

Could it be that the Queen Mother was too sad and angry to bother to explain because she was misunderstood and accused by him?
He returned to He Fei's bedside and was horrified when he saw tears in the corners of her eyes.

Could it be that although she was in a coma, she still had some residual consciousness that could hear their conversation?
If Concubine He heard what she just said, she would probably never want to live again according to her temperament.

Although she is forbearing, she is not weak.

Li Beichen felt heartache in his heart. He held He Fei's hand and said in a deep voice, "Jing'er, no matter what you heard, you must wake up. I can't live without you. I know your sincerity towards me. You and me I have never forgotten every detail of my life."

Two lines of clear tears fell from the corners of He Fei's eyes again.

**************************************
Mo Yu looked for the concubine's clothes for Jiang Yuebai, a set of lotus color and a purple pullover with a gauze blouse.

Jiang Yuebai frowned slightly, "Do you have any plain clothes, such as white, gray, black, dark green, etc.?"

Mo Yu shook her head, "Your Majesty, your complexion has always been bad, so you don't wear these colors because it makes you look sick."

Jiang Yuebai thought about it, and it was true that lotus and purple colors set off her complexion better.

Just when I was about to choose the purple one, I suddenly remembered the contents of the initial onboarding training.Only concubines above the imperial concubine rank are eligible to wear purple.Is this a deliberate attempt to harm me so that I can be caught in public?
She glanced at Mo Yu and said, "Give me a set of your clothes. I am not qualified to wear purple yet."

Mo Yu had only served the concubine, so she immediately reacted and knelt down to salute and apologize.I was busy finding two brand new palace maid suits.

"Okay, that's it."

Jiang Yuebai was very satisfied with this set of blue and white coarse cloth clothes. It was pure cotton, loose and comfortable, easy to move, and only had a little embroidery decoration on the cuffs.

She will have to chase the wind behind the chariot for a while.This is much more suitable than the purple one.

Mo Yu stood aside and looked at Jiang Yuebai silently. She didn't understand why the young lady wanted to wear the clothes of a palace maid.Dressing up is a status symbol.In the palace, the mistresses were most afraid of looking down on them.

Her expression was noticed by Jiang Yuebai, who smiled without explaining.

If you have to choose one of the two, you would rather take a lower position than cross the line.What's more, a noble person is nothing in the harem.

Jiang Yuebai suddenly asked, "Do you want to avenge your mother-in-law?"

Mo Yu was stunned and looked at Jiang Yuebai with confusion and excitement, "Young Master, are you saying that someone is deliberately trying to harm the empress? I know this is the case. How can there be such a coincidence in the world!"

Jiang Yuebai stretched out his sleeves, "You answer me a question first, and I'll tell you."

Mo Yu expressed her stance eagerly: "My little master, please ask me. I will answer truthfully."

Jiang Yuebai said slowly, "Do you know who suggested it to go see Xironghua today?"

"This... let me think about it."

Mo Yu recalled for a long time and looked at Jiang Yuebai hesitantly, "It's the Queen Mother."

After saying that, he opened his mouth wide, then quickly covered it, looking at Jiang Yuebai in panic.

The article is full of all kinds of ridiculous misunderstandings, just like in our lives.

The words and deeds of the other party obviously have no special meaning, but we give it meaning based on our own likes and dislikes.

Everyone usually listens selectively to the information in the other party's words according to their own position, and the answers are often based on their own position.Very few people can put themselves in the perspective of the other party and listen carefully.People who can be keenly aware of differences in each other's positions and understandings, respond to them, and take advantage of or eliminate misunderstandings are often people who are smart.
