Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

I froze a bit.

At this moment, I want to escape subconsciously, not to escape the danger, but to escape the gentleness he gave. Even when I was in pain, it still raged and almost drowned me.

However, his words, the heavyness revealed in those simple words, seemed to be engraved in his heart like the wounds on my body, and the heavyness made me unable to step forward. The candlelight shivered slightly in the gentle night breeze, shining on my flickering eyes.

I didn't look back and didn't leave again.

He also seemed to feel the chaos in my heart, didn't speak immediately, but just stood behind me.

The outside is much cooler than in the previous layers of curtains, but even if the wind blows with dew at night, the temperature brought by his hot eyes cannot be ignored; even the traces he just left on me, every time It is still raging everywhere, exuding his breath, and his enthusiasm makes me tremble.

I don't know how long I stayed in the night like this, only to see the teardrops of the candle slipping, and a large piece of cake was accumulated on the candlestick, and he finally spoke.

"Green baby."

"..."

"Just now I--"

He spoke halfway, but didn't say any more, and my heart was aching.

He just, how?

It seemed that he didn't even know what to say. He didn't apologize to me immediately, because he knew it well, and even I could understand that it wasn't an insult, but he did invade me almost. Out of control, I was still hurt and pained.

After a long hesitation, he said softly, "I'm sorry, it scared you."

"..."

"Don't blame me."

I subconsciously reached out and hugged my lean body. In the cool breeze of the night, the thin clothes made me look weaker and weaker, seemingly still carrying the helplessness and embarrassment just now.

Pei Yuanxiu slowly walked behind me and felt his breath came up. The feeling made me a little shudder, but he did not reach out and touch me again, as if he was afraid to scare me, even after he approached His breathing seemed to be cautious, and his voice was deliberately peaceful: "You believe me, I don't want to-hurt you."

"……Ok."

"Green baby, I said, I've waited too long, but just now, I can't wait."

"..."

"I'm afraid of you. Don't wait for me."

My heart trembled, and I turned a little to look at him.

In the night, I saw him standing behind my back like this, and his white clothes were normal, but I do n’t know why, under such a swaying candlelight, it seemed a little dark, even his peaceful expression was a little dark, as if It was hurt and painful, but those eyes were still the same, looking at me with such firm and stubborn affection.

At that moment, I really felt heartache.

I spoke a little hard, my voice was completely hoarse: "My son ..."

"Qingying, it doesn't matter how long you wait. As long as it's you, I'm willing to wait."

"..."

"I just don't want to miss the chance."

I looked at him hard, couldn't say a word, and couldn't even shed tears. After a long silence, I finally choked and said, "You don't want to."

"..."

"I, it's really not worth it."

What else did I want to say? As soon as I looked up, I met his firmer gaze: "It's not worth it, I have the final say!"

"..."

If it has n’t been exited, everything is caught in the throat, and with such firm eyes, no words seem to be enough to argue, I just stood in front of him dullly, and after a long time, I gently He shook his head: "My son, don't do this."

"..."

"Actually, I always wanted to find a chance to tell you—"

Before the words fell, I heard a very weak voice behind him: "Mother?"

I hurriedly turned around, and saw Li Er, wearing a thin skirt, standing in the dark bamboo forest, blinking at us with big eyes.

I turned around quickly: "Lier, why did you come out?"

"Mother, I'm alone, afraid."

I was about to return to her in a hurry, and looked back at Pei Yuanxiu: "My son, I--"

In fact, it was n’t a good time to talk to him now, let alone wake up again, and I could n’t let her wait for a long time, and said softly after a moment's sleep: "Son, please come back tonight. Some words , Let's talk tomorrow. "

He looked at me without speaking, but his eyes flickered and he nodded slightly.

When I nodded, I hurried back to Lier and hugged her. The child seemed to be fully awake, still blinking his eyes and looking at the figure of Pei Yuanxiu at the gate of the hospital, and said gently, "Mother, what do you say to Dad? Why did you say it for so long?"

"nothing much."

"Oh……"

She mumbled, and didn't speak again, and when I looked back, the courtyard door was empty. I hugged Lier and walked back, but on the way back, Lier kept looking back, looking at the empty doorway.

.

I originally thought, I told him something to say tomorrow, he should come to me again, but the next day, the inner courtyard was quiet and quiet.

It was only mentioned when the maid came to serve me and Lier to have meals. He and Sister Han accompanied the guests.

I didn't expect Pei Yuanfeng to leave.

However, since his identity is Xichuan, he must not be able to walk away with a banquet. Moreover, as is the case today, where do Jiangnan and Xichuan go from here? This is definitely not a trivial matter for one person to come and go. Each exchange may have a crucial impact on the future situation.

And my heart also added a heavy weight.

The atmosphere at the banquet yesterday, I can feel that Pei Yuanfeng is not friendly, even if Pei Yuanxiu, although the etiquette is thoughtful, but he speaks some scenes, the atmosphere is peaceful, but it is not harmonious.

Of course, world events are not always possible.

When I was on the boat, Pei Yuanxiu still remembered the words I said-time can change a lot of things. Although time may not change what I want to say, it may not change the attitudes of both Xichuan and Jiangnan.

And if they really have a joint intention, then--

Thinking of this, my back suddenly became numb.

With a snoring sound, I woke up suddenly, only to find that Yisong loosely dropped the spoon into the bowl, Lier and the servant girl were surprised and looked at me.

My face was a little red. I picked it up and drank the rest of the chicken congee, and asked, "Where are the sons and nobles now?"

The maid looked at me: "Madam, are you-are you going?"

I felt her eyes strange, and said, "What's wrong?"

She stood upright with some shyness and said, "The son ordered him to say that Miss Li was frightened yesterday, and she needs to take good care of herself. These days, the VIP is not in the hospital, so please ask his wife to stay in the hospital. Accompany the lady. "

"..."

I didn't talk for a while, but Lier next to me listened, clapping her hands with a smile: "Okay! Mother, I don't want to see that bad guy!"

I looked down at her happy appearance and smiled, "OK."

As soon as the voice fell, I heard the maid sigh gently.

I smiled slightly in my heart, and didn't talk anymore.

In the past, even if he was busy, Pei Yuanxiu would find time to sit in the inner courtyard, accompany me and leave, and sometimes even someone came in to urge him, but this time, he seemed to make up his mind , No longer enter the inner court, nor let me go out to meet him.

I can't get angry, even if I laugh, it's bitter.

I just feel heartache.

.

Although I was a little disturbed in my heart, I did not really leave the hospital for the next few days.

In the final analysis, no matter what Jiangnan and Xichuan are going to do, what does it have to do with me? Now I just want to live a peaceful life with my daughter, just like in the inner courtyard in the past two days. I ate easily and slept peacefully. In my spare time, I taught her to read ancient classics. This girl was born to me. Although I usually love bungee, I can still calm down to study and gain a lot.

just……

On this day, there was a drizzle of rain on the outside, and the inner courtyard was not big. In this way, we would have nowhere to go, and simply stayed in the house, observing the rules of Lierzi disciples.

This child is also good, he really obediently sits on the chair kneeling, picks up the writing brush carefully word by word.

The room was extremely quiet, and in such quietness, the slight crisp sounds of drizzle falling on the bamboo leaves continued to accompany every drop of Lier, like a movement.

But my mind drifted away when I looked at the silver rain in front of me ...

I don't know how long it was before I felt Lier pulling my sleeve and whispering, "Mother, mother?"

I woke awkwardly and lowered my head: "Ah?"

Not yet responding, the voice of the maid sounded: "Mrs. Qingying, slavery disturbed Mrs. Qingying."

I just came back to God. The maids have entered the house. I'm still in a trance, and I turned around in a hurry and smiled in concealment: "What's the matter?"

"Ma'am, your guest is going back to Xichuan."

I snapped: "Ah?"

"Guy, you're about to leave the house now."

"..."

Pei Yuanfeng and Xue Muhua are leaving?

I was a little hesitant for a while. I haven't seen them again these days, and I really don't know what they have talked to. Do you leave now, on behalf of them?

However, Pei Yuanxiu asked the maid to tell me that what I meant was that I naturally wanted to give it away.

Thinking of this, I hurried to stand, Lier still lying on the table and looked at me in wonder: "Mother? What are you going to do?"

I said softly: "Then they are VIPs, they have to go, and the mother is going to see them too. Lier you-you don't want to go?"

Lier thought about it and nodded: "Well, Lier doesn't want to see them."

I laughed bitterly in my heart. Although I tried hard to explain to Lier these days, in fact, Pei Yuanfeng is not a bad person, but the nature of the child caused her to be scared like that. The shadow of her young heart left her unable to feel good about Pei Yuanfeng.

In this way, I can only give up temporarily, in the end, come to the Japanese leader.

Thinking of this, I didn't say anything, just sorted out my clothes, and then followed the maid out of the inner court.

.

I didn't go out for a few days. The servants in the house saw me, and their attitude was still humbly. I asked the follower of Yao Lao to know that the carriage was ready.

I quickened my pace and went out.

The maid behind me helped me hold an umbrella. I walked fast, and she could only follow it, and some cold raindrops fell on my face. I didn't care about it. After a while, I reached the door.

In the distance, people have heard the noise, and Pei Yuanfeng actually brought a lot of people. With the accompanying maids on the side of Pei Yuanxiu, it looked like a crowd in the distance. There was a stop outside the door. There was someone in the team carriage, but it was obviously not convenient because it was raining.

I was just approaching, and the attendants said to me, "Mrs. Qingying is here."

Upon hearing this, the people standing at the door turned their heads.

Pei Yuanfeng, Xue Muhua, and Pei Yuanxiu naturally have Han sisters.

Speaking of which I haven't been out of the hospital for the past few days, but they don't seem to think anything strange, but the expression on Pei Yuanfeng's face still freezes, some pale faces appear in the drizzle and mist. Somewhat ambiguous.

I walked slowly and stood in front of him: "Are you going?"

"..." He paused, "Well."

"..."

I hurried up, even the skirt corners were stained with mud, and the people around me, even myself, felt that there must be many words to say to him on the parting.

But after saying that, I was speechless.

Pei Yuanfeng, who had looked at me with his eyes widened, seemed to be waiting for me to speak, but after a while, his eyes calmed down, as if he knew everything and stopped waiting.

In this way, he and I were silent.

At this moment, there was a sudden rush of horseshoes on the long street outside. Although there were many people here, when I appeared, everyone was silently silent, but quiet, and the horseshoe sound was exceptional. Everyone turned around and turned around.

As soon as I looked back, I saw the other side of the long street and ran over two riders.

As soon as they arrived at the door, they stopped at the same time, hurriedly turned over and dismounted, one hurried to the cloth that followed Pei Yuan's self-cultivation, and the other went to the people brought by Pei Yuanfeng, whispering something , And then took out a piece of paper and handed it over.

I immediately understood that it was naturally a messenger.

Want to come, Pei Yuanfeng came here as a guest. Any news from his messenger naturally came here.

but--

I saw Butu's face suddenly changed. I immediately stepped forward and handed the stationery to Pei Yuanxiu. On the other side, the stationery was also handed over from Xue Muhua to Pei Yuanfeng.

The two brothers unfolded the stationery, glanced at them, and changed their faces at the same time.

In particular, Pei Yuanxiu, the blood on his face faded all at once, as pale as the slightly trembling piece of paper on his hand.

What happened?

It seems that they should see the same news, but what news has made them both look different?

I felt something faintly, and the next moment they both looked up at me and looked at me.
