After I left my first husband, I was received by my younger brother who had once depended on each other on the pilgrimage by the palace
"Sister, I'll fulfill my promise"
"I want you to become the most noble woman in the palace"
1
I fell into deep thought after my stepmother left. My uncle's life had an indelible mark on me. I was never used to the wealth that was poured out after the age of twelve and the price I paid for it.
The seven years after marrying Jiang Shao, I worked very hard to be the clan wife of a big family, manage the common affairs of the family, and take care of my husband's life. But if it doesn't work, it doesn't work, and I ended up messing up everything.
I am not a qualified chess piece. I am not smart enough, nor do I lack the spirit of dedication to my family.
Since I was six years old, I felt like duckweed. At my uncle's house, I am a burden, in the general's house, I am an invisible person, and in the Jiang family, I am the so-called young lady with no sense of existence.
I think I still feel resentful. The six years I have lived under someone’s roof are obviously not my fault, but I only bear the barrier caused by separation.
for many years, I have to go to every place. Every place is not my home, and every place has no family.
only has the imperial palace, which I chose myself.
Rong Xu braved the criticism and gave me a roof that sheltered from the wind and rain, and gave me a home, and he was my family.
He dealt with the intrigue and intrigue of the previous dynasty. I can't be his help, so at least, don't be a drag.
Rong Xu came over to have a meal in the evening. Halfway through the meal, he suddenly asked, "Sister, do you have anything to tell me?"
"Is the food still tasted good?" I asked.
He was stunned, as if he didn't expect me to ask this question, and paused before saying, "It's great."
"Sister, Lantern Festival, don't leave Zelan Palace." His tone was unprecedentedly serious, and a storm was brewing in his eyes.
I looked at him, suppressed the uneasiness in my heart, and nodded.

After the Lantern Festival, the court harem changed drastically overnight.
The Jiang family of the Korean Duke's Mansion was uprooted.
is said to be made public that the Jiang family colluded with Concubine Min to try to rebel and support the tenth prince ascend the throne. The rebel party took advantage of the Lantern Festival to plan an assassination. Thanks to General Lu and Prime Minister Wei, the emperor was able to survive and successfully defeated the rebels in one fell swoop.
The Jiang family's ten-year-old male Ding is executed, the boy under ten is exiled to be a slave, and the female family is in the court to be a maid.
Concubine Min and the tenth prince were removed from the household registration and demoted to common people, and banned for life.
Wei Yun, the eldest daughter of the Wei family, was selected as the queen and chose a date to marry.
I was named Chenfei , and Xiao Jin became Rong Xu's Princess Corning.
When I heard the news, everything was settled, and I didn’t even have time to see Jiang Shao for the last time.
At this moment, I suddenly realized that Rong Xu ascended the throne, not to find a bargain. After the
palace transformation, I saw Rong Xu again. It was early March. I looked at his calm face and felt subconsciously fearful and couldn't help but tremble.
When he saw my reaction, he only said three words: "I'm sorry."
My throat seemed to be blocked with a ball of wet cotton. It took a long time to say, "Why did Your Majesty enthrone me and Xiao Jin? The Jiang family has collapsed, and we have no use value anymore."
"Sister, at this point, Xiao Jin must be my daughter." His eyes were deep and there was no emotion.
I smiled, "That's true, thank you for your kindness."
is really ridiculous. He called me one by one, but I was just a chess piece for him to get rid of the Lu Jiang family from beginning to end.
I always call you Your Majesty, but I really treat him as my family in my heart.
The only thing I am confused about is why he didn’t let my young and beautiful sister enter the palace to better win over the Lu family.
If I had been before the palace change, I would have been self-indulgent and thought he wanted to protect our mother and daughter, but now, I can only understand the fear and anxiety of his plan.

Half a year later, the emperor and the empress got married and the emperor ruled.
Settling down Xiao Jin, I went to Zhaoning Palace to pay homage to the queen. The queen is only sixteen years old and is a beautiful girl as beautiful as flowers.
She didn't say anything special when she saw me. She took my tea step by step, said a few polite words, and sent me away.
I recalled the queen's trance expression and felt that the wind in the palace was far from over.
The three auxiliary ministers have gone, who is next, is it my father or Prime Minister Wei?
Rong Xu was newly appointed as the queen and a concubine, but he rarely came to the harem to spend the night. He came four times a month, and the time was very fixed. He went to the queen's Zhaoning Hall on the 15th day of the day, and came to my Zelan Hall on the 26th day of the day, without any resistance to wind and rain, and could not be called Master Duanshui.
I don’t know what he went to the queen to do. When I come to my place, I usually play with Xiao Jin. If it weren’t for the 26th day of the lunar calendar, he would leave after dinner.
If it is the 26th day of the lunar month, we will stay in the same bed until dawn.
I can't guess what he intended. Sometimes I think he was to balance the situation in the previous dynasty, and sometimes I think he was to make the palace people dare not treat Xiao Jin and me slowly.
Queen Guard spared my morning and evening settlement. We can't see each other a few times a month. The days in the palace seemed to have fallen into a strange calm, but I felt that the storm was coming, and I became more and more cautious in Rong Xu.
Rong Xu often looked at me, his expression was unpredictable.
This calm lasted only three years. I heard Ruxin say that a minister recently made a statement, saying that Empress Wei had nowhere to go for three years, and asked the emperor to select beauties to enrich the harem.
Rong Xu adopted the advice, but did not arrange a general election. He only welcomed my step-sister Lu Zilan into the palace and conferred Concubine Li.

As soon as Zi Lan entered the palace, she had to be favored by Rong Xu.
I always thought Rong Xu was restrained and restrained until my sister entered the palace, and I suddenly realized what it means to be unscrupulous.
The number of times he spent the night in the harem every month rose from four times to twenty times, and went to her Yifeng Pavilion every time, and never set foot in the queen and my palace again.
Rong Xu's every night of hard work was very effective, and the good news of Zi Lan's pregnancy was heard more than a month after entering the palace.
The emperor was very happy and asked the queen to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival chrysanthemums and chrysanthemums.
I only met Zi Lan at the banquet for a long time. Last time I met, she was still a little girl who was not as good as the one in the face. Now, she is a bright and charming woman.
However, it may be because of her discomfort during pregnancy. Her face did not have the pride and ostentatiousness of a favorite concubine, but instead leaned in Rong Xu's arms with a pale expression, with a depressed expression.
I sat aside, talking nonstop, and keeping my usual low-key.
Rong Xu was very happy. He drank one cup after another, enjoyed many rare treasures in Zi Lan, and even promoted several Lu family nephews.
He had a flush after drinking on his face, and he held Zi Lan intimately, and said drunkenly: "If the beloved concubine can give birth to Lin'er, he will be the prince of Daqing."
That was his always cold and self-controlled person, and he was a rare loss of composure.
I was scanning the ministers at a high position, and the joy of seeing my father and stepmother's face flashed.
Of course, Prime Minister Wei also glanced at the queen who was on his head as Rong Xu finished speaking.
Queen drank a glass of thin wine calmly, but her slightly shaking hands revealed her uneasy heart.
It seems that Zi Lan is indeed what he loves. When I remembered that I rejected my stepmother’s remarks three years ago, I couldn’t help feeling guilty. If it had been agreed at that time, Rong Xu and Zi Lan could have become a story of a deep love between the emperor and the empress.
Unlike now, Rong Xu respects a queen who doesn't love, Zi Lan guards the identity of a noble concubine. Even if the two of them are singing in harmony, they will be unable to calm down.
I lowered my eyes and suppressed the turbulent emotions in my heart.
5
A few days after the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet, Zi Lan came to Zelan Palace to pay a visit.
I saw that she was still pale and haggard, so I asked the reason.
Zi Lan said that he had too much morning sickness and could not eat.
I remembered that I made some plum during the Great Heat this year. I just started to take it out recently. Xiao Jin was very appetizing when eating it, so I asked her if she wanted to try it?
Zi Lan happily agreed.
Xiao Jin also liked this kind and beautiful aunt, so she personally held the plate and handed it to Zi Lan.
Zi Lan just picked up one, and before she could even wait for the entrance, someone shouted loudly, "Stop!"
Everyone looked at the hall gate together. Rong Xu strode with a gloomy face and reached out to pull up Zi Lan sitting.
When Zi Lan stood up, she accidentally touched Xiao Jin's hand. The child didn't hold it firmly. The plate fell to the ground, and the crisp sound of broken porcelain seemed to hit my heart.
The one Zi Lan originally twisted in her hand fell down and rolled into the plum blossoms all over the ground.
Rong Xu seemed to be not enough, so he wiped her fingers that touched the plum blossoms several times with a veil, and wiped them over and over again and said, "Didn't I say that all things in the mouth need to be verified by three imperial physicians."
Zi Lan explained to me with a blank face: "Sister will not..."
Rong Xu interrupted, "Don't be careless."
Xiao Jin stared at the two people who were close to each other as if no one was hugging each other, tears filled his eyes, but Rong Xu, who originally loved her very much, did not give her a look.
I felt very heartbroken and walked over and knelt down: "It's because I'm not thinking well, please punish me."
Rong Xu then looked at us, his fingers moved, and said coldly: "No, let's do it."
After saying that, he hugged Zi Lan and left.
Xiao Jin's little fist suddenly clenched and shouted at the backs of the two: "Father's bad guy! Um..."
I quickly covered the child's mouth and hugged her: "Xiao Jin, don't say that father, he just..."
What is he just? He just has a new love and is tired of playing a harmonious puppet show with old people .
What's more, for him, I can't even be considered an old person.
Xiao Jin thrust and said, "The plum prunes made by my mother are dirty, and I will never get along with my father again."
I watched Xiao Jin blurt out these rebellious words, and my heart was pity and pain. She is still so young, and I don’t know that her father may have to change his face from now on. Of course, she may never see her father’s face again.
For the first time in five years, I haven’t made Rong Xu’s meal.
Ruxin was stunned when she came with the food box and asked hesitantly: "Empress..."
I said lightly: "No need to send it in the future."
entered the palace from Zi Lan. Every time the meal sent to the Imperial Study room was returned as it was. I pretended not to know what Rong Xu meant and had a shameless sent it for so long, so it was time to stop this self-inflicted behavior.
Ruxin's face was entangled, she wanted to speak but stopped, but in the end she said, "Yes."
6
was unexpected. The next day, Rong Xu came to Xiaojin with a big wooden box and said that he was here to apologize.
Xiao Jin was angry with him for the first time and was quite angry. It was not until Rong Xu slapped the door and said at least twenty times that "the father was wrong" before he let someone in.
wooden box is filled with tumbler Fuwa, windmill, shadow play doll, Jiulian, Luban Lock and other small toys. Xiao Jin couldn't take his eyes away and generously reached out to beg for a hug. The father and daughter smiled and put away their grudges.
Rong Xu asked softly: "The Southwest Governor has offered a new iron-eating beast, black and white, and is very cute. He just sent to the Beast Garden today. His father took Xiao Jin to see it. OK?"
Xiao Jin's eyes glowed and he said loudly: "Okay! Mother..."
Without waiting for my reply, Rong Xu said first: "Your mother doesn't like it."
I... I can only dislike it.
I nodded and echoed, "My mother is afraid of these jackals, tigers and leopards, go with Your Majesty."
Rong Xu still loves Xiao Jin. It's not a bad thing. Even if he is ranked behind Zi Lan, at least he will be ranked. I was a little relieved, but fortunately Xiao Jin was not wronged, at least Xiao Jin didn't have to be wronged.
I was idle alone, so I carried a kettle to water the flowers and plants.
More than an hour after they left, Ruxin rushed towards her with her skirt: "Empress, something happened!"
The kettle in her hand fell to the ground, her mind instantly turned blank, and her ears were buzzing and I couldn't hear a word.
I ran towards the hall gate, but one foot deep and the other was shallow, as if I was stepping on cotton, and before I could step out of Zelan Palace, I lost consciousness in front of me.
When I woke up, Rong Xu sat by the bed.
I saw the eye-catching blood on his imperial robe, my head was dizzy, and my voice was hoarse and unpleasant: "Xiao Jin..."
When he saw me wake up, he immediately said, "Xiao Jin is fine, I'm in the side hall."
The big stone fell to the ground, and I was sure in my heart.
, but I was afraid, but I couldn't help but tremble. If Xiao Jin had something to do...
I couldn't help saying, "If your Majesty has any plans, please come to me, don't... don't get into the child."
His face suddenly turned pale: "It's an accident."
My heart was shaken, and I knew I had said the wrong thing, so I quickly remedy it: "It's an accident. I hope Your Majesty sees that I care about the child. In terms of my fault, I forgive my guilt for making a mistake. "
His face became increasingly ugly: "You don't believe me!"
"No, Your Majesty's words are golden, I will not doubt it."
He stared at me, and suddenly stood up and said coldly: "From now on, Concubine Chen is forbidden to the Zelan Palace, seal the palace gate, and no one is allowed to enter or leave."
He threw down the tough ban and left.
I closed my eyes. Zelan Palace has been afraid that it will be a cold palace since then. Why did we reach this point?
As soon as he left, I quickly went to the side palace to see Xiao Jin.
The medical officer of the Imperial Medical Office said that Xiao Jin was not injured, but was just frightened, and that he would not be seriously injured after a good rest in the near future.
Xiao Jin was not injured. What was the blood stain on Rong Xu's body?
The medical officer asked me, "Why did Your Majesty leave? The scratches on his arm have not been treated yet."
Ruxin told me that Xiao Jin was so stunning in the Beast Garden that he accidentally entered the bear house. At the critical moment, Rong Xu was in danger of saving the child.
I felt extremely regretful when I learned the truth. He was injured and woke up while I woke up, but heard a series of heart-wrenching words. In anger, I just kept me from my feet.
I was worried about his injury and wanted to visit him. The palace people guarding the palace gate were selfless: "Your Majesty has a life, I dare not disobey, I hope the empress will forgive me."
Not to mention people, I couldn't even pass a few words. After touching the wall for a few days, I calmed down.
just felt sorry for me, why did I mess up everything again.
I hurt him like this this time. Has he been consuming a lot of love that was not much? After the suspension of

I realized that in just over two months, the harem of the previous dynasty experienced another bloody storm.
Zi Lan saw red, and the fetus was not safe. The Imperial Hospital diagnosed someone who laid a blood-activated object in her daily diet.
Rong Xulongyan, who had always been lenient with his subordinates, was furious and ordered a thorough investigation.
In addition to the people in Zelan Palace who were confined early, dozens of palace maids in Fengyi Palace and Zhaoning Palace were arrested and tortured.
After half a month of investigation and interrogation by the Imperial Hospital and the Imperial Massacre, the truth surfaced. Empress Wei was jealous of Concubine Li's favor and took the lead in pregnant with the dragon heir, instructing the Imperial Seal Palace Order to add additional saffron juice to the meals of Yifeng Pavilion, causing Concubine Li to slip into the fetus.
Empress Wei hanged herself in Zhaoning Palace after the incident.
She conspired to murder Longsi, but although she committed suicide for fear of crime, she was still deposed as the queen.
Wei Prime Minister was also dismissed and investigated for his inability to teach his daughter. Although the Wei family was not as stolen as the Jiang family, they fell into decline overnight.
After all, if you can find out what happens and what will happen if you dismiss the job and investigate it, it is not the emperor and the Lu family who have the final say.
In the past few days, I have always dreamed of Queen Wei. Although I have not had much interaction with her in the past three years, I have been living in peace. I don’t believe in my heart that she will be so crazy that she will attack the child in Zi Lan’s belly.
Queen Wei is still young and is the main palace, so it is not impossible for her to give birth to children in the future.
The child in Zi Lan's belly still has no gender. Even if he is a prince, the emperor will still say differently whether he admits the drunk joke. Even if he admits it, the position of the prince is not without the possibility of changing his ownership. No matter how you think about
, neither the Wei family nor the Queen Wei should be so desperate. Since that's the case, the mastermind behind the scenes can only point to...
I woke up from the nightmare and suddenly heard the breathing of another person in the bedroom in the dark. I asked in surprise: "Who?"
8
candlelight lit up, illuminating Rong Xu's cold and handsome face. I was still immersed in the nightmare emotions. I was afraid of seeing him, and subconsciously shrank.
He seemed to not notice my dodge, walked over and sat down beside the bed, reached out to brush away my sweaty forehead, and his tone was gentle, "Sister, are you in a nightmare?"
My heart pounded, and I slowed down for a while before saying, "It's okay."
"Why is Your Majesty here? Don't you accompany Concubine Li?"
There is only indifference in his black eyes: "She will only cry when she wakes up, and I have a headache when she cries."
This look is completely different from the man who is full of Zi Lan at the chrysanthemum-watching banquet. Which one is the real him, or neither one is it?
Why did he come to my palace late at night? I suppressed my fear and smiled, "Your Majesty wants to rest here?"
"Well, that's fine." He blew out the candlelight and lay beside me.
My heart was irritated and I was stiff and I didn't dare to fall asleep.
But he reached out to take me into his arms, patted my back and comforted me: "Sister, don't be afraid."
I only felt creepy. He had been sleeping with me before, and had never exceeded the rules, but today he suddenly became so close. What do you want to do?
I was trapped in Rong Xu's arms, he pressed against me tightly, his body was hot, and there was a change that scared me.
I grabbed the bedding, my mind was boiling, and for the first time I realized that he was already an adult man.
His right hand slid along my spine to his waist, pressing it lightly and heavily, as if suppressing something, and seemed to evoke something.
My heart also jumped faster and faster as his strength changed, and it was about to jump out of his throat. The numbness and itch in my waist penetrated my heart, which made me both shocked and scared.
Our breath is intertwined at a glance, and the atmosphere in the dim sleeping hall becomes more and more ambiguous and confusing.
Drunk? Have you taken medicine?
The string in my mind became tighter and tighter, and I almost wanted to push him away immediately.
He moved, leaned over his face and printed a kiss on my forehead. The hairs on the back of my neck immediately stood upside down.
But he stepped back, even let go of his hands that were imprisoning me, and murmured in a low voice: "It's coming."
What's going on? I was sweating heavily, but I didn't dare to ask. I pretended to be unheard like an ostrich, turned my back to him to pretend to be asleep.
He lay beside me in a proper manner, and did nothing more, but his presence was so strong that I couldn't sleep all night.

I went to Yifeng Pavilion after the confinement order was lifted. Zi Lan was lying in the bedding, with only a small bulge. In just a few days, she cleared a lot.
Although I have not been kind to you since childhood, I am the same father and sister after all. I feel sad when I see her appearance.
Her eyes stared at me woodenly, and after a while she recognized me, she sobbed and said in a crying voice: "Sister."
I couldn't help but walk closer and hold her slender hand, comforting her: "Zi Lan, it's okay."
screened around, and she lowered her voice and asked me: "Sister, what's wrong with the Wei family?"
I recalled Ruxin's news and retelled it to her one by one: "Empress Wei hangs herself for fear of crime. Prime Minister Wei was dismissed and investigated. Most of the officials of the Party of Wei were suspended."
"Zi Lan, Your Majesty will make the decision for you. As for the child, there will be something in the future."
Her face became paler, and she asked, "Where is Wei Mao?" As soon as the
said, she suddenly covered her mouth and looked panicked.
I didn't hear what she said clearly, and didn't dare to ask, so I could only pretend that I didn't hear it.
Zi Lan grabbed my hand tighter and tighter, tears fell one after another, and her lips closed: "Sister, be careful of Your Majesty. I..."
At this moment, Rong Xu also came to Yifeng Pavilion to visit Zi Lan, and I quickly stood up to salute.
After the ceremony, I glanced at Zi Lan. She kept looking at me, and there seemed to be a sense of retention in her eyes.
I was hesitating when Rong Xu's cold voice came from my ears: "Didn't I say that Concubine Li needs to rest, and idle people are not allowed to visit at will?"
The people in Yifengge Palace kneeled down together, trembling.
Looking at this situation, I, as a "messy person," was inconvenient to stay, so I could only tell back with a nervous mood.
Zi Lan's "Be careful Your Majesty" has been hovering in my heart.
The Jiang family has been destroyed, the Wei family has been destroyed, and the Lu family’s overthrow is just around the corner.
Zi Lan should mean this. The Jiang family was exterminated for usurping the throne. The Wei family was charged with murdering Longsi. Where is the Lu family?
Is this piece of chess soon coming in handy? How can Rong Xu manipulate me?
I looked at the notes Zi Lan put to me in my palm, and decided to take the risk to see her again.
10
Wait until late at night, I got the news that Rong Xu returned to the imperial study room and inferred that he would not come to the harem tonight, so I secretly dressed up as a palace maid and disguised himself into Yifeng Pavilion.
Zi Lan also forced her sick body to wait for a long time, and saw a mist appearing in my eyes again: "Sister, save the Lu family."
I had no idea and could only ask: "What's wrong?"
Her tears rustled down, and there seemed to be a fierce emotion in my heart, "Sister, I am not pregnant with Your Majesty's child."
I was shocked to almost aphasia , how dare she? As soon as these words were spoken, Zi Lan's next words were much smoother. She was afraid of being discovered, so she quickly said: "Dad doesn't know the truth about my pregnancy, and she will take this opportunity to hurt the Wei family. Wei Mao was tortured by his father's confidant in prison. Sooner or later, she would tell me what was wrong with me and pull the Lu family into the water."
I interrupted her: "Wait a minute, even if you have had a child with Wei Mao, even if you have ever had a child."
I interrupted her: "Wait a minute, even if you have had a relationship with Wei Mao, your child." It may not be his. "
Zi Lan closed his eyes: "I originally wanted to get things done with Your Majesty and cover up the things I had before my marriage with Wei Mao. But I was too cautious and used it for the first time to serve the bed, but my Majesty noticed it. Your Majesty has never touched me, and the child cannot be his at all."
I understand. The Lu family sent a pregnant concubine into the palace, which was naturally ill-intentioned. As for the crimes, treason, usurpation of the throne, confusing the royal bloodline, any one of them is a death penalty. This is the ending that Rong Xu chose for the Lu family.
So what about me, what kind of ending did Xiaojin and me set by him?
I seemed to have been pulled out of all my strength, leaned softly on the bed post, and murmured: "But Zi Lan, what can we do?"
She covered her face and cried: "Dad and Prime Minister Wei have always planned to marry, and I don't care about Wei Mao's private meeting, and even always enjoyed seeing it. I thought I would marry him. I didn't know I would enter the palace..."
Zi Lan suddenly stopped crying and held my hand, "Sister, only you can save me, save the Lu family."
I just think it's ridiculous. The Lu family building is about to collapse, what else can I do.
"Send a message to my father, asking him to kill Wei Mao, and he can't speak."
I looked at Zi Lan suddenly, decisive and cruel. She had a ruthless heart under her weak and helpless appearance, but I smiled bitterly: "Zi Lan, I have no confidant in the palace."
Yes, she is a qualified family support, and I am just an abandoned child.
No rights and no one, I am alone wherever I am.
Her face was fading in an instant, but she quickly forced herself to show off: "Mom told me that when the elder sister was discussing a marriage, Your Majesty asked her father to marry you. If Your Majesty loves the elder sister in her heart and asks her, he will definitely be able to keep the Lu family a way out. My children are gone. Is it your Majesty's only one word from him?"
I gently brushed her hand, "Zi Lan, Your Majesty was just an eleven-year-old child when I discussed a marriage. What did he know at that time? And. Do you think he has me in his heart? Isn’t it too hasty? "
Zi Lan grabbed my sleeves again and refused to let go, as if holding on to the last hope, "Sister, when you first entered the palace, Your Majesty wanted to make you the queen, but he gave up because the Jiang family and the Wei family jointly opposed it. "
I was shocked, no wonder, no wonder the Jiang family suddenly assassinated Rong Xu, how could a proud person like Jiang Shao allow me to leave him and then ascend to the rear.
, but he was not smart enough, but was used by Rong Xu and implicated the Jiang family.
I just find it ridiculous: "Zi Lan, but after His Majesty finally appointed a guard, his purpose is just to take back the power in the hands of the Minister of the Respondent. You are the reason, the guard is the handle, and I... are just a pawn."
The light in Zi Lan's eyes went out little by little, but he still refused to let go of the sleeves in his hand.
But I couldn't continue to waste it. I pulled out my sleeves little by little, turned around and left.
The wind was cold all the way, and I wrapped my cloak tightly on my body, but I couldn't stop my body from getting colder inch by inch.
11
I saw the bright lights in Zelan Hall outside the hall, and my heart sank.
The door of the hall opened from the inside, and Rong Xu's figure appeared in front of him. He looked at me and frowned: "It's even deeper and he is heavy. My sister is out at night, and it's not good to catch a cold."
said, and he shook a big cloak, walked over and covered me with his head, hugged me into the warm inner room.
He hugged me and warmed it up, then uncovered the cloak and took off my cloak.
Under the hooded cloak, I was dressed in a palace maid outfit and was suspicious. I knew that quibbling was useless, so I remained silent.
He seemed to not care about my disguise, nor did he ask where I went, but just stuffed a hand warmer into my palm.
I held the hand stove and looked at him a little dull. Since Rong Xu came to Zelan Palace to catch the current situation, he must have known about the meeting between Zilan and me. It seems that I will not be free before the Lu family is convicted.
When the cold air in my body was dispelled, he spoke: "Didn't I tell my sister not to go to Yifeng Pavilion to meet Concubine Li?"
Although he was saying something blamed, his tone was not harsh.
I was confused by the warm wind in the hall. Of course, there are also reasons for holding it in for too long. I have never been a smart person. I can't understand and participate in those intrigues and intrigues and intrigues. I will always only think about the causes through the ending. Knowing that the sword is hanging high, I was worried all the time, but I really couldn't show my calm attitude.
I said impulsively: "Your Majesty, I'm just too scared."
His expression softened: "What are sisters afraid of? You don't really care about the Lu family."
My heart was thumping, he actually knew?
Yes, I really don’t care about the Jiang family, nor do I care about the Lu family. My heart is very small, and I can only let go of myself and Xiao Jin. I always care about the fate of the Jiang family and the Lu family, but I am afraid that they will affect us.
Rong Xu seemed to be very satisfied with my default and said with a smile: "Besides, I have everything."
"But," I paused, and chose to be honest, "I'm afraid of Your Majesty."
His face darkened: "Why?"
"I'm sorry," I'm not afraid of your majesty."
"I'm not afraid of you."
"Why?"
"I'm not afraid of you." I have never known the ending that Your Majesty has arranged for me and Xiao Jin. Are we not going to the court to be a slave or even living a luxury hope. "
Rong Xu looked at me, and I still couldn't understand the thousands of words at a glance. He suddenly shook his head and smiled bitterly: "How do you look at me like this?"
He suddenly stopped smiling, grabbed my right wrist and pulled me closer to him.
I dare not struggle, but I couldn't control my trembling slightly.
"Are you really afraid of me?" Seeing my subconscious trembling, Rong Xu's angry face became even worse, and the strength in his hands also increased.
I couldn't help but scream in pain.
He suddenly let go, looked at me gloomyly, and said lightly: "Since my sister wants to know, it's okay to tell you first. The future I arranged for my sister is to be my queen. Xiao Jin will be the legitimate princess of Daqing."
12
I looked at him, unable to hide my shock and surprise.
"Don't sister want their respect? If you become the most noble woman in the world, no one dares to be disrespectful."
I heard it wrong, or he was crazy, or I actually have some value that I don't know. He is lying to me?
He seemed to see through my thoughts and sneered, "Sister, what's the point of lying to you now?"
"But this is not right, I'm married again, Xiao Jin is... You just can't tell the difference between attachment and love because of your childhood care, and you will regret it in the future." I felt that everything was confused and could only say incoherently.
"Sister said this, it seems that you can tell it clearly. I really can't tell it, but what's the matter? I only know that I want to be with my sister."
I don't know what Rong Xu had encountered in the twelve years that I couldn't touch. From the innocent child in my impression, he grew up to an emperor who was as deep as the sea.
He used thunder to destroy the Jiang family and the Wei family. He held a handle that was enough to destroy the Lu family, but he said that he only wanted me to be his queen.
is too ridiculous. What kind of virtue can I do? Since my mother died, I have been cared about by such a person.
"Sister, I fulfilled every promise I promised you, but do you want to break your promise?" He accused me calmly.
"Commitment?"
"The promise to stay with me forever."
I remembered that during the six years we have been dependent on each other, I have indeed promised him more than once that we will be together forever.
He took out the queen's treasure and looked at me: "Sister, please accept it."
I looked at the token that symbolized the most noble woman in Daqing, and felt vaguely fearful: "What if... what should I refuse?"
He smiled and his face was indifferent, "No, sister, just don't..."
There was a long silence in the air. He looked at the heavy gold treasure in his hand and finally said: "Please think about it again."
There was no threat in his words. I wonder if it was an illusion, but I heard a hint of pleading.

Rong Xu looked at me and waited stubbornly for the final answer.
I was panicked and could only ask tentatively: "Can your Majesty give me some time?"
He pursed his lips, nodded, and turned around and left.
I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep for several days.
Rong Xu seems to have given me the best option. What's wrong with being a queen?
However, the guard hanged himself and Zi Lan was in panic all day long. How could I know that he had not made a clear oath to them in the past.
When I was still not sure about it, Rong Xu came again. He looked at me deeply: "Sister, I killed Wei Mao."
I don't understand why.
"I have covered up the evidence that Concubine Li confuses the royal bloodline. The Lu family will not be in trouble. If my sister wants to back, I will leave the Lu family to you."

I did as I said, and there was an imperial edict in the box.
He said, "Blank imperial edict, sister can write any decree at any time. It's not a conspiracy, not a plot, not a lie, not a trap. Sister, please believe me."
"You're crazy!" I couldn't describe the emotions that were rising in my heart, I just felt that the surging emotions shattered my reason, and I couldn't help but tremble all over.
"I'm not crazy," his dark eyes were filled with expectations, "Sister, I have eliminated all the obstacles between us, and also given you the opportunity to choose and room for regret. So now, please fulfill your past promises, okay?"
My heart was pounding, my vision was covered with a layer of mist, and my breathing became rapid. I have been doing underground mud for more than 20 years, but I didn't know that I was the moon in my heart of the lord of the world. How is
? How is it possible? But he has already made concessions step by step, revealed everything, and walked ninety-nine steps towards me.
I couldn't help but take a step towards him and said, "Okay, we will be together forever."
His hands shook, then spread his arms and hugged me tightly.
I heard his thunderous heartbeat gradually calming down. It turned out that he was looking forward to my response so nervously.
Forget it, I no longer worry about gains and losses, no longer hesitation. Maybe it is really not a trap, not a design, but years of longing and obsession.
I will accompany him until he no longer needs it until death comes. (Original title: "Hidden has a branch to follow (Part 2) ")
