The emperor's favorite useless concubine

Chapter 118
He Lanyou's eyes cast towards the distant sky quietly, and said softly: "I also loved someone, if possible, in this life, I don't want to see him again."

"Aren't you Ai Ruochen?" It was the first time Rong Xiu heard He Lanyou bring up this topic, and she couldn't help being surprised.

"In the past, I also thought that I loved Ruochen. There was no reason not to love him. He is so outstanding and gentle, and we are often together. However, I didn't know it until I met that person. I don't love Ruochen, I love another man, and I can't wait to destroy him." He Lanyou smiled bitterly, and said: "For that love, I even did a very stupid thing, I intentionally hurt myself. Create scars, and then slander him for belittling me—I think he must have regarded me as an unreasonable and unscrupulous woman."

"...Who is that person?" Rong Xiu was extremely shocked, and asked after a pause.

"He is the emperor of Yan Kingdom, and he is as honorable as the emperor's elder brother." He Lanyou raised his head and said proudly: "The man I love is a man of indomitable spirit. He is handsome, burly, and daring. He's different from anyone."

Rong Xiu looked at He Lanyou quietly, and suddenly smiled, "Anyway, it's a blessing to meet someone you really admire."

He Lanyou looked at Rongxiu sympathetically, and said with empathy: "We are all the same, you love Third Brother, I love Yanhan, we are all inseparable from love."

"No, I don't love your third brother." Rong Xiu looked at He Lanyou calmly and said softly.

This is also the first time she admits that she doesn't love He Lanxue.

For some reason, after blurting out these words, Rong Xiu suddenly felt her whole body relaxed, as if it was a curse that had been pressed on her body for too long, and now, she was finally able to let it go.

He Lanyou opened his eyes wide, looking at Rongxiu in disbelief.

Rongxiu's expression was still calm, she smiled, and said quietly: "In the past, I was the same as you, I didn't know. You thought you loved Ruochen, but you didn't. Similarly, I thought you loved Axue, but you didn't. , I am just a kind of dependence on Axue, a kind of dependence on a brother. He is too eye-catching and smart. As long as he is there, everyone will become a foil, and everyone will revolve around him. I am no exception , Then, that is not love, just being attracted, attracted by his brilliance and his feelings, that kind of attraction is not enough to make me give everything, nor is it enough to make me forget myself. "

"...Then, who is it that can make you give everything?" He Lan Youchi asked.

Rong Xiu's tears had dried up, she raised her head, showing an incomparably dreamy smile, calmly and resigned, "It's Your Majesty."

"Big brother?"

"Yes, before I knew it, I already loved His Majesty so much that he ignored me and used me to torment me. I couldn't even hate him. It was just heartache, pain to the bone, and now, gradually, Not even pain."

"Axiu..." He Lanyou was startled, for a moment, she didn't know how to react.

"But now, my heart is dead, and I don't love anyone anymore." Rong Xiu smiled and said lightly: "So it's useless to talk about these things."

"Why..."

"Do you know what it means to have a heart like dead ashes?" Rong Xiu stretched out her jade-like fingers, pointed at her heart, and repeated the cold words word by word: "Heart, like, dead, ashes."

Deep in love, it turns into ashes.

Perhaps, when He Lanchun sent Rong Xiu to bury He Lanxue, he also buried Rong Xiu's love for him at the same time.

With this layer after layer of betrayal, what other feelings can keep the original passion?

He Lanxue and He Lanyou heard these words in their ears at the same time, and their hearts trembled.

——When Rongxiu said this, the kind of determination that was flat.

He Lanxue didn't want to hide anymore, he wanted to show up immediately, ask about the current situation of the palace, and also tell Rongxiu: the past was all on his own will, so she doesn't have to worry about it.He had let go, and hoped that she would be relieved.

However, just as He Lanxue's thoughts changed, his figure froze again.

There was a loud noise from the entrance of the attic.

Heavy knocking on the door and heavy footsteps.

He Lanxue couldn't help being puzzled: Ever since I came to this big tree, I haven't noticed anyone passing by, and where did the person come from?

After a little thought, He Lanxue suddenly understood: It seems that the man stayed outside the door for a long time, and he should have stood outside the door before he came, so he didn't notice it.

That person could hold his breath... He Lanxue was guessing wildly, and through the window, he could already see who it was.

After seeing clearly, He Lanxue almost fell from the tree.

He Lanchun.

The man who strode in and said nothing with a sullen face was none other than his elder brother He Lanchun!

The two people in the room were shocked when they saw the person coming, but they were more confused.

"Brother Emperor, why...how..." He Lanyou pointed at him and then at the door, but he couldn't figure it out.

At this time, shouldn't the emperor's elder brother accompany Pei Ruolan in the palace?How could it appear here?

He Lanchun didn't agree to He Lanyou, but walked straight in front of Rongxiu, stood still, and stared straight at her with those eagle-like eyes.

Rong Xiu's initial reaction was the same as He Lanyou's, but now she calmed down. She looked back at He Lanchun calmly, her expression still calm.

"Don't give up." With a straight face, He Lanchun said four words almost domineeringly, with a golden eloquence, saying it was an order.

Rongxiu's eyes flickered slightly, she looked at him without saying a word.

"Your Rong family has been loyal for generations, and your entry into the palace is also an opportunity for you to be loyal." He Lanchun said again: "So, you must do your best. There is no need for walking dead by my side."

The momentary light in Rongxiu's eyes dimmed again.

She laughed at herself, raised her eyebrows and bowed her head, "I know."

He Lanchun was still looking at her with a solemn expression, that not-so-remarkable face, if it was straightened up, would be like a tree carving or stone sculpture, so cold that people dare not look directly at it.

Rongxiu's gaze has already moved away.

Something shatters in the eyes, becomes ashes, becomes dust.

"Why don't you look at me?" He Lanchun noticed her wandering and asked in a deep voice.

Rong Xiu had no choice but to raise her head again, but she didn't look at him very intently.

"Did you still think about other men when you looked at me?" He Lanchun suddenly smiled, with a hint of cruelty in his smile: "Is it because we don't look alike, so you don't even bother to cast your shadow on me?" found."

"Brother Emperor!" He Lanyou couldn't hear her, and she yelled from behind: "Axiu clearly loves Brother Emperor, why should Brother Emperor say such things!"

Rongxiu pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.

He Lanchun also had a sullen face with a sullen expression.

He really doesn't look like He Lanxue. He Lanxue is handsome, tall and straight, intelligent and elegant.

But He Lanchun is mediocre, with a wide face and small eyes, not elegant enough, and not as smart and exposed as He Lanxue.

If He Lanxue is the moon in the clouds and the fairy in the mountains, he is the grass in the water and the mud in the stream.

Apart from his elder brother status, what else can he compare with He Lanxue in terms of attracting women?

Will a woman who was loved by He Lanxue fall in love with him instead?
It's not that He Lanchun lacks confidence.Rather, he is confident that such a thing will never happen!

What's more, Asue loves Rongxiu so deeply, so deeply that she gives up the throne, so deep that she exiles herself--that kind of determination and chic, He Lanchun thinks he can't give it, even if he compares his heart, he can't compare with Asue.

"You know I'm outside, right?" He Lanchun asked cruelly, "Did you say those words to me on purpose?"

Rong Xiu raised her head, looked at him stubbornly, and then replied affirmatively: "Yes!"

"Axiu!" He Lanyou quickly called out, "Why are you talking so angry!"

"I didn't say anything angry, it's the truth." Rongxiu smiled suddenly, her beautiful and refined face made people's hearts sway with a smile, "It's just that I don't understand why your Majesty won't accompany Concubine Lan appear here?"

"As a queen, you don't stay in the palace, and you come out of the palace, what a disgrace!" He Lanchun reprimanded coldly: "If you offend me, I won't pursue it for the time being. If there is a next time, I will join you." Punish Grand Master Rong for not teaching!"

Rong Xiu froze for a moment, still smiling, but that smile was too beautiful and false, like a fake.

Rong Xiu froze for a moment, still smiling, but that smile was too beautiful and false, like a fake.

But He Lanchun narrowed his eyes, and his voice became colder, "The queen mother is seriously ill now, and everyone in the palace is worried, praying for the queen mother, but you are busy competing with Lan Fei for favor, and you are playing childish tricks like witchcraft dolls. I think it's time for you to give up your empress position."

Rong Xiu didn't have much reaction, but just asked indifferently: "You abolished me, how could you be worthy of Grand Master Rong who is loyal to His Majesty? If he knew that his daughter was abolished from the Queen's position, would he still be so loyal to His Majesty?" Woolen cloth?"

"Could I be afraid of a minister?"

"Your Majesty is not afraid, but is making full use of it. Although my father has lost the power he had before, half of them are my father's disciples. No matter how much your Majesty hates concubines, you can't act rashly. No matter what, you must let your concubines be in this empress's place." Stay where you are, don't you?" Rong Xiu looked at him sternly, such a weak woman still spoke like a knife like a sword, and hit the nail on the head.

"Look if I dare to abolish you!" He Lanchun was furious, grabbed Rong Xiu's hand, and dragged her out of the door: "Now go back to the palace, I will immediately summon the ministers and make Pei Ruolan queen!"

Rong Xiu staggered behind, her face was pale, but her eyes were filled with dead silence.

He Lanxue stared blankly at that scene, and wanted to go out to help Rongxiu, but she felt like an outsider: no matter whether they loved or hated or hurt each other, it seemed that no one else could interfere.

But He Lanyou didn't have such awareness, she rushed over, stopped He Lanchun, and said angrily: "Brother Emperor, you can't treat Axiu like this, Axiu can't be sorry to you, you can't abolish her."

"She spent the night alone with the traitor Xiaoyao Wang, how do you know that she has never done anything that would disrespect her status as the mother of the country?" He Lanchun asked coldly.

He Lanyou was taken aback, He Lanchun had already taken Rongxiu out with big strides.

Rong Xiu's footsteps were messy, bumping and bumping all the way, she was very embarrassed.

But He Lanchun just walked forward and didn't care about her at all. On the road, when the guards saw He Lanchun, they all knelt down in fear and fear, and didn't dare to lift their heads. No one cared about Rongxiu's situation at the moment.
