The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 490 Painful Choice (4)
Qing Chen was not as strong as him, and was dragged by him to stagger and rush out a few steps, and Xiao Jun said loudly behind him: "Brother, let her go first, how about we let her choose? How about you take her away forcibly like this?" , with her temperament that would rather be broken than jade, she will never stay by your side, a twisted melon is not sweet, why do you bother to make things difficult for her?"

Xiao Hong stared at her and asked, "Are you really not going with me? Aren't you afraid that one day you will regret it when you learn about your life experience?"

Qingchen shook his head and said resolutely: "I never cared about my identity. You can't let it go because you are unwilling, but I don't have so many desires. Now my only wish is to stay by the emperor's side. Nothing else matters to me."

"Even your..."

Before Xiao Hong could finish his sentence, a sharp arrow pierced through the wind again, brushed his shoulder and flew into the tangled grass beside him, causing the two of them to be separated in shock.

Xiao Jun who was on the horse didn't see Qing Chen turned around for a long time, obviously a little out of breath, squinted his eyes slightly, drove the horse forward two steps and said: "Chen'er, I will give you a chance to choose, if you If you want to leave with him, I will let you live today; if you are willing to stay, I said that no matter what mistakes you have made, as long as you are willing to turn around, I will forgive you. I don’t want to force it, you make your own choice. "

Qingchen hesitated for a moment, then slowly turned around and walked in Xiao Jun's direction, Xiao Hong chased after two steps unwillingly, "Nian Yi..."

She said without turning her head: "I am no longer Shen Nianyi. Now I am Mu Qingchen, the emperor's concubine Rong. From now on, I only want this identity."

The corner of the emperor's mouth was slightly raised, and the joy in his eyes could not be concealed. She finally chose him.He leaned over and stretched out his hand to her, and said softly: "Chen'er, let's go back to the palace."

But Qingchen stopped not far from him, bit his lips, and asked with difficulty: "Your Majesty, this concubine is willing to go back with you, but can you be kind enough to let this concubine give you a ride? "

If she didn't give him a ride, she was afraid that he would really die in Xiao Jun's hands.

Xiao Jun burst into anger, closed her eyes, raised her chin slightly, clenched the horsewhip in her hand and asked, "Did you choose me to save his life, or did you really love me?" If you want to leave, I won't stop you."

Qingchen knelt down calmly, looked into Xiaojun's deep eyes, without the slightest intention of dodging, "Your Majesty, after all, sir has the kindness of nurturing his concubine, and sending him a ride is also repaying his kindness in this life." As for whether Chen'er loves the emperor, can the emperor really not feel it? The concubine really just wants to give the husband a ride."

"Get up!" Xiao Jun ordered coldly, looked at her and said in a deep voice: "There will be a farewell to sending you a thousand miles away. Are you not afraid that your woman's kindness will cause people to die one day in the future? Xiao Hong has 10,000+ in his hand. Soldiers, not to mention that you have no relationship with him, and he just wants to use you."

After being scolded by him like this, she felt cold and woke up instantly. She only thought about Xiao Hong's kindness to her, but forgot that he had the intention of treason. If he is allowed to escape today, it will definitely lead to chaos in the world in the future , How many people will die in the war?Then wouldn't she become a sinner through the ages?

It's not like she doesn't know how to weigh which is more important. It turns out that this kindness has long been doomed to be irrepayable.

She braced her body and stood up slowly, with a trance-like expression, and staggered towards the emperor.It turned out that the choice was such a heart-piercing pain, so painful that I couldn't feel it, and the three souls and seven souls seemed to be no longer in the body.

Xiao Jun reached out to take her on the horse, hugged her tightly in her arms, and whispered softly in her ear: "Chen'er, I know you are sad, but think about those innocent people, those who suffered accidents like you when you were young." Do you want to see children living on the streets who are left unattended, coming and going in the wind and rain, having no cotton-padded clothes in winter, and freezing to death on the streets without even having a full meal?
He may be very important to you, but isn't the brotherhood between him and me important?If I fell into his hands today, how do you think he will treat me?You heard what he said just now. He vowed to bloodbath the Qin and Lin families. I am the empress dowager's son. Can he tolerate me?But no matter what, I can promise you that I don't have to kill him, but just imprison him, and keep him safe for the rest of his life, that's my brotherhood. "

She understood the truth of what he said before, so she listened dumbly and didn't react, until the last sentence, she seemed to wake up suddenly, turned her head to look at him expectantly and asked: "Are you really not going to kill him?"

The emperor nodded solemnly, "I won't kill him, I will do what I say!"

This should be the best result, she dare not have any other extravagant hopes.

Xiao Jun turned the horse's head and ordered to Fufeng: "Here you are in charge, you must capture Xiao Hong alive and escort him back to Beijing." Then he ordered Su Yue: "Bei Ma returns to Beijing with me, go now. "

The two took their orders, Qingchen asked puzzledly: "Why is the emperor in such a hurry to return to the palace?"

Xiao Jun galloped on the horse and patiently explained: "Since the things on your clothes fell into Gu Jieyu's hands, I felt that you seemed to be being watched by someone, and just now Su Yue received an inexplicable letter Secret letter, the purpose of the people behind it is not to let him escort, but to catch the traitor. In other words, the matter of your meeting here with Qin Zishuo has been known for a long time. It's just that they didn't expect that Zhen would personally Just to catch people.

Su Yue is the person I personally selected to come up, and is my confidant. Seeing you having a secret meeting here, why didn't you tell me?Gu Jieyu was killed and silenced, and today you were caught on the spot, at least I will believe that there is no innocence between you and Qin Zishuo.

I was in a hurry to go back to the palace because the identity of Qin Zishuo was only known to me before, but now if anyone knows that Qin Zishuo is Xiao Hong, they will rush to tell the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother and Xiao Hong are in the same situation, and I wish to kill him soon, you Think if she knew Xiao Hong's false identity, based on your relationship with Qin Zishuo, would she still spare your life?So I have to deal with this matter properly before the Queen Mother gets the news. "

It was the first time for Qingchen to ride a horse, but he didn't feel afraid at all, that's because the fear in his heart had far exceeded the external danger.She said in a trembling voice: "Does the emperor trust the concubine? The concubine really didn't know that he was Xiao Hong before."

Xiao Jun rubbed her forehead with her cheek in a consoling manner, and said softly: "Of course I believe in you, as I said, no one except me knows his true identity, including you."

Qing Chen raised his eyes and asked: "Has the emperor checked the real identity of the concubine? Who is the concubine?"
