Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 157 Three concubines (2)
"Okay, I won't break my promise." Her voice was hoarse, and her little hand had already untied his belt.

The emperor was startled, stopped all movements, and hugged her tightly into his arms again.His eye sockets were already slightly moist, but there was a forced smile on his face.

"Well." His heart was trembling and aching, but he didn't want her to be sad again because of his worry.Even though they all knew that her body had reached its limit and there were not many days left...

In the shadow of the trees, in front of a tall tree, stood two men in white clothes, peerless and graceful, as silent as a fairy.

Xiao Tingxuan's phoenix eyes looked far away quietly, and the hands behind his back unconsciously tightened and then tightened.The brilliance of the stars all over the sky fell, reflecting the scarlet blood in his eyes.He suddenly rolled his eyes in grief and anger, his expression was painful and desolate, and he punched the big tree.Blood slowly dripped down his fist.Under the hazy moonlight, poignant and enchanting.

"You—" Ling Xihan's eyes shook.

Xiao Tingxuan suddenly turned around and hugged her tightly in his arms.

Ling Xihan was stunned, and wanted to push him away, but suddenly felt the lonely and sad aura on him.Her outstretched hand paused in the air, then slowly landed on his back, patting him gently.

"Don't worry, the queen will be fine." She thought he was worried about the queen.

Xiao Tingxuan's body trembled, he closed his eyes sadly, he didn't say anything, but the hand holding Ling Xihan tightened even more.

Ling Xihan frowned, she had an illusion that at this moment Xiao Tingxuan was like an insecure child who desperately needed a warm embrace to melt away the coldness and panic in his heart.

After a while, Xiao Tingxuan said hoarsely: "Han'er, do you know? Father, he hates me, no, it should mean that he... hates me." There was pain and sadness in his voice that could not be concealed.

The movements of Ling Xihan's hands paused, and his eyes were slightly surprised.

"My mother had a difficult labor when she gave birth to me, almost..." His voice trembled, and the twilight was dark, covering the blood-red pain in his enchanting phoenix eyes.

"Every time my mother fell ill and fell into a coma, my father would never let me get close to my mother."

Ling Xihan's eyes moved slightly, so this is what he is suffering from?Just as he was about to say a few words of comfort, Xiao Tingxuan slowly let her go.His eyes lightly turned elsewhere, covered by the mottled branches, the pain and desolation just now was gone, as if the fragile and desperate Xiao Tingxuan just now had never appeared.If one ignores the suppressed and suffocated sadness emanating from his body.

"It's late at night, let's go back." He turned his head again, his phoenix eyes were calm, and he turned and left.The steps were steady and powerful, without stopping at all.

Looking at his lonely and firm back under the moonlight, Ling Xihan suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and called him without thinking.

"Xiao Tingxuan!"

In front, the white shadow paused, but did not turn around.

"Just now...thank you." He left without hesitation after speaking, and never stopped again.

Ling Xihan looked at the direction in which he disappeared, and was stunned for the first time.Then she turned around quickly, and immediately headed towards Prince Zhongyi's mansion.

In the royal courtyard, Ouyang Chen stood in front of the window, and a black shadow fell behind him.

"My lord." Qian Yun stood behind him respectfully.

Ouyang Chen's eyes were silent, his brows and eyes were calm.

"Checked it out?"

"Yes!" Qian Yun handed over the information obtained from the investigation to Ouyang Chen.

Ouyang Chen's eyes skipped over the thin piece of paper, his calm eyes seemed to be blown by the wind, causing ripples.Then he pressed his fingers, and the rice paper in his hand instantly turned into fly ash.He opened the folding fan and shook it lightly, as if to disperse the ashes floating in the wind.

A smile flashed across the corner of Ouyang Chen's mouth, and he said a word through voice transmission.Qian Yun was startled, and then said in a clear voice, "Yes."

"Yes." With a flash of his figure, Qian Yun immediately disappeared.In the night, the figure was heading towards the Right Prime Minister's Mansion.

Ouyang Chen looked out the window with unpredictable eyes.

Ling Xihan hurried back to the palace, ignoring everyone's eyes, and went directly to the study.

In the study, King Zhongyi stood blankly in front of a picture of a lady hanging on the wall, his eyes focused and gentle.The woman in the painting has a country-like appearance, her brows are as light as water, and her gestures and gestures are so glamorous, which makes people disappointed.The scene of her vomiting blood and fainting appeared in his mind again, and he was surrounded by heavy sorrow and pain.The hands beside him were clenched tightly, suppressing the pain that pierced the heart like a thousand arrows.

There was a noise outside the door, "Second Miss, you can't go in." The guard stopped Ling Xihan who wanted to barge in.

Ling Xihan's eyes were as cold as ice, "I want to see my father, go and report it."

The guard hesitated a little, and the indifferent voice of King Zhongyi came from inside the room.

"come in."

The guard immediately moved away and made a 'please' gesture to Ling Xihan.

"Second Miss, please."

Ling Xihan pushed the door directly and went in. King Zhongyi had already put away the pictures of ladies, and was sitting in front of the desk with a calm expression.

"Father." Ling Xihan called out.

King Zhongyi raised his head, "What's the matter?" There was a layer of sadness in his brows, and he seemed a little tired.

Ling Xihan frowned. When she walked in just now, she clearly saw that her father seemed to be hiding something, as if it was very important.But it's not important, she has something important to come to him tonight.

"Father, I want to know what happened on the day the queen gave birth to the crown prince 18 years ago?" Xiao Tingxuan's sad and lonely appearance always appeared in her mind, such deep sorrow was suffocating.She recalled the first time she met him, when she mentioned the queen's illness, he was covered with layers of sadness.At that time, she thought it was her illusion, but tonight, he hugged her, so fragile, so sad, as if he was abandoned by the whole world...

King Zhongyi was shocked, and pain flashed in his eyes for a moment, and then he said quietly: "Why are you asking this?" Suddenly he remembered something, "How is the Queen's condition?" He tried to keep his voice calm, but slightly clenched his voice. His fists revealed the worry and anxiety in his heart.

Ling Xihan's eyes darkened, and he sighed softly.

"I haven't seen the Queen."

King Loyalty said nothing, he should have thought of it long ago, the emperor hates Han'er so much, so naturally he will not allow Han'er to approach the queen at this time.

"Father." Ling Xihan asked again: "Why does the emperor treat the prince so..."

King Zhongyi raised his eyes, the eyes flashed sharp and cold, and then he sighed softly.

"You...are from the same world."

Ling Xihan was slightly taken aback, his eyes a little surprised.

"Father, you?" He actually knew?

King Zhongyi smiled bitterly, "Yes, I know, she is not from this world." It is precisely because he knew that he was not surprised by Han'er's transformation.
