Chapter 158

But the light in the shallow eyes is flowing, and the vastness of the night is reflected in the brightness.She sighed: "I believe. The emperor will definitely miss me, and he will definitely want to forget me as soon as possible. He knows that I have suffered a lot and is worried, so he asks about me; I will throw it away and restrain myself from not seeing me. After a long time, I will be forgotten."

Zhuo Rui was startled, and said: "Why does Concubine Shu think so?"

But Qianmei chuckled and said: "I thought so when I left him, so he must have thought the same way when he left me. Since I am willing to leave him first, he is naturally willing to leave me too."

We have known each other for so long, but Qian Mei's words and deeds are often beyond Zhuo Rui's expectation.

She was so sure that Tang Tianxiao would have the same idea as her?
He noticed the rare helplessness and melancholy in the eyes of the woman in front of him, and whispered: "Actually, not necessarily."

"Oh?"

"I heard what Eunuch Qi said. Although the emperor was displeased, he didn't really intend to throw Concubine Shu away. It's just that when the son and Concubine Shu were arguing, he probably spoke too harshly, and his face couldn't be wiped off for a while. I guess Concubine Shu is willing to be serious. Forgive me, and it will be fine.”

"Apologize seriously?"

"For example, Concubine Shu can make a confession once and confess her mistake to the emperor. The emperor feels that he can save face, so he will naturally turn his anger into joy."

"Is it……"

She answered very sloppily, with erratic eyes, as if she didn't pay attention to what Zhuo Rui had to say.

Zhuo Rui couldn't figure out what she was thinking more and more, and continued: "Eunuch Qi has served the emperor for so long, he can't understand the emperor's thoughts very well. Now that he said that, Concubine Shu might as well try it tomorrow!"

But Qianmei didn't answer, she lowered her head and caressed the wound on her wrist.

The medicine used by the imperial doctor is very good. At this moment, the damaged skin has formed scars, but the swelling has not completely subsided, and there is a thick circle of bruises, like iron cuffs growing into the skin.

Zhuo Rui hurriedly said: "There is one thing that Concubine Shu may not know. Since the Emperor brought Concubine Shu back, she has been ill in Qianyuan Palace. Therefore, he did not know about the matter sent by the Empress Dowager to come to Yiqing Palace until yesterday evening. I heard it. It's not...not really that cruel, wanting to see Concubine Shu suffer."

But Qianmei gave a low "Oh", and still lowered her head without answering.

Zhuo Rui pondered: "Concubine Shu can't write those forms well, right? Or, I'll go out and find someone to write it, and bring it in and transcribe it for Concubine Shu, how about it?"

But Qian Mei finally raised her head, her black eyes turned on Zhuo Rui's face, which inexplicably made his chest feel tight and painful.

What is that thing in the deepest part of Yaoliang's eyes?
It is as indistinct as a firefly, but it does exist. Is it sadness?Still sad?

When did such deep bitterness and pain appear in the eyes of the little princess of Beihe who was welcoming back to the Central Plains?
She should be a woman who has everything written on her face.

She likes to laugh, likes bright and colorful clothes, likes the unrestrained vast world, and she is so cheerful that she never seems to worry—even if she is worried, she will not worry for long.

She is always alive.

Such bright joy not only infected Tang Tianxiao, but also infected the people around Tang Tianxiao...

But at this moment, her smile is also bleak.

She said slowly: "It's not that good. I don't intend to admit anything wrong."

Zhuo Rui was stunned.

But Qian Mei stood up, but bent down to help her injured knee in pain.

Xiang'er quickly went to hold her by the arm, and persuaded: "Your Majesty, it's better to go back to bed and lie down! It will be better, be careful not to touch the wound!"

Ke Qianmei nodded, leaned on Xiang'er and walked slowly towards the bed, then turned around and asked: "Zhuo Rui, are my friends really ordered to be executed by him?"

Zhuo Rui was stunned, and said: "This... I followed the emperor later, but I didn't hear about it."

"Where are Nuannuan and Xiaona?"

"No...not sure."

Sweat broke out on Zhuo Rui's head.

But Qianmei didn't ask any further questions, she sighed, and said to herself: "He treats the people around him well, but he never relents when he treats those who block his way. They must all be dead, maybe it's worse than death .”

Tao Zi lowered the curtain over there, and her staggering figure was hidden in the light pink silk curtain, only a faint black shadow cast by the candlelight.

Thin, like a piece of paper-cut, a gust of cold wind can blow it to pieces.

Zhuo Rui stood there for a long time before he understood.

As the king of a country, Tang Tianxiao has lost face and heartbroken because of her escape and infidelity.

Both he and Jin Qi think that as long as she admits her mistake, it will be fine, and it is lenient to her, but she doesn't think so.

She didn't intend to admit her mistake at all, nor did she intend to reconcile with Tang Tianxiao.

If Tang Tianxiao was told that she refused to give in because she cared about the rebellious party he ordered to kill, would Tang Tianxiao regret not letting the Queen Mother torture her for a few more days?

After all, among the gangsters who were killed, the one who had the best relationship with her was obviously that Kanati who had an affair with her...

Both of them were unwilling to take a step back, or Tang Tianxiao was willing to take a step back, but Qian Mei didn't know what was going on.

He remembered the massacre of Jinzhou city again, and shivered while hugging his shoulders.

I hope it's just him being overwhelmed.

If Ke Qianmei is really related to that city, even if he can't do it because of the friendship between the two, there will never be someone on Jingshan who sacrificed his life to save her.

Slowly walking out of the palace gate and walking to the guard room outside, I felt the frosty wind was bleak and the fallen leaves were fluttering, and it was so cold.

The Milky Way cuts off the flow of the sky, and the palace is locked in Qingqiu.

In the blink of an eye, the scorching sun and scorching heat of summer have completely passed away.

---------------------------------------------

But Qian Mei sat leaning on the bed, turning over and over in her hand, it was the broken comb.

It is already in two pieces.

The broken slit was uneven, undulating like jagged teeth, and it hurt dullly when stuck in the palm.

Seeing her with a wilted expression, Xiang'er brought a bowl of freshly steamed custard to her, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you don't have enough dinner, why don't you drink some of this!"

Ke Qianmei nodded, took two sips in her hand, and said, "How did you steam it? It's very bland and tasteless. Don't drink it."

Xiang'er hurriedly brought another bowl and spoon, took a mouthful and tasted it herself, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's okay for the slave to taste it. Could it be that your Majesty is in a bad mood, so the food doesn't suit your appetite?"

Ke Qianmei said: "I can eat and sleep, what's wrong with me? I probably slept too much and lost my appetite. This is really strange, the more I sleep, the sleepier I become."

She yawned and sighed: "It's a pity that when I really fell asleep, I couldn't fall asleep."

Xiang'er looked at her face and said: "If the emperor is here, talking and laughing with the empress, he will definitely not be sleepy."

Ke Qianmei narrowed her eyes and smiled lazily.

Xiang'er tentatively asked: "Your Majesty, since the Emperor has the intention of reconciling, why not push the boat along? I heard that the Empress Dowager sent someone to send two women there, both of whom are beautiful, and..."

"And what?"

"And I heard... I heard that the two women look a lot like that Concubine Ning Shu back then."

Ke Qianmei smiled and said: "He used to treat me differently because I look like Sister Qingwu. Now that I have offended him, he must be able to empathize with those two soon."

She turned her eyes and laughed at herself: "So, should I go to the table to congratulate him?"

Xiang'er was taken aback.

If there is such an expression in the past, Tang Tianxiao will be so angry that his seven orifices will be filled with smoke!
What the hell is this concubine Shu from a different race thinking in her mind!

She hurriedly said: "The emperor has not empathized. I heard that these two women have been placed elsewhere! But Concubine Ruoshu refuses to bow her head. He is heartbroken. I am afraid that he will really spread them to sleep. If there is a newcomer I have divided the emperor's heart over here, and if I want to redeem it in the future, I'm afraid I won't be able to treat Concubine Shu as well as before!"

"Xiang'er, you're wrong!"

But Qianmei said tiredly, "A person has only one heart, if it is divided by others, there will be no more!"

She lowered her eyebrows and said in thought: "If his heart is no longer on me, he will be happy, and I will really be imprisoned here for him for a lifetime, right?"

Xiang'er hurriedly said: "Where does your lady think all this is going? This servant is watching, the emperor and your lady get along like an ordinary couple, naturally they quarrel at the bedside, how can you imprison your lady for a lifetime?"

But Qianmei stared at the pattern of pomegranate bats on the gauze tent, and slowly said: "If he gradually forgets me, I gradually forget him, and it will be my blessing to live here peacefully for the rest of my life." , is also his blessing!"

Xiang'er was stunned, and said in a stunned way: "Mother...you, you plan to never talk to the emperor again? Are you going to leave this Yiqing Palace for the rest of your life?"

Ke Qianmei laughed.

"Out of this Yiqing Palace? Out of this Yiqing Palace, where can I go? I cut off half of the way back, and he cut off the other half for me. Where else can I go?"

Xiang'er had vaguely heard about some things between her and the people of Beihe, so she didn't know much about it, so she could only say: "Where is your empress thinking? As long as you have the emperor's favor, where can your empress go?"

But Qianmei didn't answer, she just put the broken comb together and said: "Look, this comb is broken, even if you hold it carefully with both hands and put it together, there are still cracks. Besides, who has the patience to put it together?" , hold it up all the time!"

As she spoke, as soon as she let go of her hand, the comb that was barely held together fell down and fell on the red carpet, and there were two more pieces, and the things were scattered.

Tang Tianxiao kept this comb all the time, Xiang'er didn't know her, only knew that Tang Tianxiao broke it off with his own hands and threw it down that day, picked it up quickly when he saw it, looked at the broken comb again and again, really didn't see anything strange, said in a low voice : "This comb... if it breaks, it will be broken. Let's just replace it with another one. Not to mention other places, only in our palace, the silver ones, jade ones, sandalwood ones, and a handful of ivory ones are all exquisite. Very, which one is better than this?"

Ke Qianmei nodded, "That's right, any one is better than this one, if you break it, break it!"

Xiang'er heard that her tone was wrong, so she didn't dare to answer. When she was carefully putting the broken comb back beside her pillow, she said charmingly: "I don't want it anymore, you can put it away!"

Xiang'er was stunned: "I keep it?"

Ke Qianmei said: "That's right, you keep it. When I die one day, you can take half of it and put it in my coffin to be buried with me, and the other half will be incinerated and sprinkled on my grave!"

Xiang'er's face turned pale when she heard this, and she reached out to touch Ke's charming forehead, but she didn't feel hot.

But Qian Mei smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm not talking nonsense. I had a good time with the emperor, and I only had this idea as a commemoration, so I told you first. ——Actually, I don't know how long it will be! I am seventeen this year, and my health is very good, and I may live to be seventy. Maybe I will live longer than you and the emperor!"

Xiang'er wiped off her sweat, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty will naturally live a long life."

But Qian Mei sighed: "Long life is meaningless, even seventy is too long. A woman starts to grow old when she is forty or fifty. If the emperor comes to see me by chance and sees me goosebumps and white hair Isn't the appearance very boring? Well, it seems that I can live to be 50 or 30 years old, so as to save myself from being annoying when I am old and ugly."

Xiang'er heard that the more she talked, the more unreliable she was, so she quietly put away the comb, and dared not speak again.

But Qianmei yawned again, lying lazily on the pillow and dozing off, only to feel drowsy coming over her, but she couldn't sleep well.

In a blur, it seems to be in Jingshan again.

That evening, that small courtyard, that deep and elegant man.

Squeezing her hands full of sweat, she mustered up the courage to tell him about Tang Tianxiao and her choice.
