Changqing Ci

"Don't worry, I just want to see you." Xun Yiran replied in a low voice, staring greedily at the person in front of him who was thinking day and night, and sat up like a flash of light. The illness had tortured him for a long time, and made him fall from the clouds to the dust. It was done by the person in front of him.

Now, she came to ask him outrightly what she wanted from him, women are really cold.

Wei Lingci didn't come forward, but sat down by her table, stared at him, and smiled with relief, "You've seen me, you can say what you want to say."

Xun Yiran leaned on the pillow, his eyes were scattered, but they still focused on Wei Lingci's white face, which made him dream about, love and hate, "They said, I will be abandoned because of your plan?"

Everything collapsed so fast that he couldn't expect it.

"Yes... and no, it was you who chose the path of treason, but I broke your hope." Wei Lingci was not afraid to be honest with him, she had always done things very openly, and she was not afraid of people's words .

She spoke sonorously and forcefully, with determination in her eyes, and she seemed like a rat, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You know that I like you, and I can also give you the position of queen. I will give you whatever you want." I can give it to you."

"But I don't like you. It's the same in Xun. How many outrageous things you have done against your conscience, your own brothers and feet can be removed. If the late emperor didn't protect you, he would miss you even before he died. You thought you would live in peace. To this day, Xun Xing is raised under the Empress Dowager's knees, no accidents, as long as you behave properly, he will be His Majesty's child, and may also be the future king of Daqi, but there will be many accidents during this period, if you behave properly, he will It will be glorious for a lifetime. But I don't want him to inherit your viciousness in his bones, so I will be the first to kill him."

Xun Yiran's desolate eyes froze, the wry smile on his lips faded away, and he shook his head fiercely: "To this day, I can't hate you, but if you marry Xun Changqing, both of you You will be scolded by the world, you have done so much, is it worth it?"

Wei Lingci didn't want to stay here any longer, so he stood up, stopped casting a glance, and said: "It's worth it, and Xun is the same. You and I are not fellow travelers, and it's useless to talk too much. Today the world is Xun Changqing, you If you live under her wings, you should remember her well."

"Wei Lingci, stop." Seeing that she was about to leave, Xun Yiran rolled down the bed excitedly. He trembled from the pain. He lay on the ground in embarrassment, curled up on the ground, watching the shadow stop the door.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Over the years, I have been having a dream repeatedly. I dreamed that I would become emperor, kill Xun Changqing, and marry you as the queen, but on the wedding night, you took advantage of my drunkenness to kill me Smothered in Changle Palace. Wei Lingci, you are a snake and scorpion..."

"Xun is the same," Wei Lingci turned around and stopped him abruptly, with a hint of evil spirit hidden in her brows and eyes, and blue veins stalked in her white jade-like neck, she looked down at the struggling man in front of her, "no matter the reality or In the dream, if you killed Xun Changqing, you should know that I will not let you go, even if I will pay a huge price for it."

"So you put her on the throne, pacified the frontiers for her, and risked being scolded by the world to marry her, and you love her so much?"

"Yes, I love her more than my own life." Wei Lingci admitted frankly, and no longer concealed his admiration for Xun Changqing.

When Xun Yiran saw her admit it directly, he squeezed his fist in anger, touched the coldness in her eyes, and didn't know what to say.There seemed to be something boiling in the chest cavity, which made him unable to help coughing while lying on the ground, covering his lips, and blood filled his throat and gushed out.

Wei Lingci glanced at him indifferently, turned around and walked out, looked at the desolate courtyard, and told the people beside him: "Repair this place, and give him what he lacks, don't be harsh on him."

After she left the mansion, she transferred to the prime minister's mansion. Tang Mo was not in the mansion, so she waited for someone to come back. She has already left the palace today, so why not go back after finishing her work, the little rogue would be angry anyway.

When the servants saw this queen-to-be, they didn't dare to be negligent, and sent a servant to invite Tang Mo back.Half an hour later, Tang Mo returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion. She was not surprised to see the man, and smiled and ordered him to serve tea.

Wei Lingci also smiled and shook the teacup in his hand, "This is the third cup of tea I've drank. The family in your house is very warm, which makes me feel very honored."

The person who came uninvited and with some purpose made Tang Mo feel very melancholy, knowing that this person's heart was not pure, she couldn't drive him away, seeing her sitting at the bottom, she also sat there, "Lord Wei is here, Is His Majesty ordering something?"

Compared to Tang Mo's restlessness, Wei Lingci was very calm, rubbing the cup with plain hands, and sighed: "No, Your Majesty didn't give orders. After you left last night, Your Majesty cried for a long time, so today I will ask your lord, Where is Princess Liu's tomb, His Majesty would like to pay homage to it. I don't know, can you tell me?"

Tang Mo's eyes trembled. The person in front of her must not believe what she said yesterday, and she will come to the door today. She took the teacup brought by the servant, and took a sip, "In Jiangnan, I can't remember the details. gone."

"Master Tang has a strong record of his knowledge, and he has always had a deep memory. How could he even forget such an important thing as the place where his friend is buried? Could it be that you don't want to talk about it, or does it mean that you don't know at all?"

Wei Ling's words never beat around the bush, and now he is even more stingy with his own words, directly explaining his intentions.She didn't want the people she cared about to be hurt by the people in front of her eyes, and those closest to her would hurt her the most.

Tang Mo smiled lightly, and Wei Lingci knew that she would not tell the truth, so he got up and paced around the room, looking at the masked person in front of him, feeling that she was lonely.

Tang Mo doesn't understand fragility, that's why she can do it so freely, but Wei Lingci can't do it, she smiled, "My lord, you are thinking that there is Ana Yanran in the front, and the Queen Mother in the back. Changqing doesn't need a biological mother." , You are indeed right, she told me last night that she only wanted to know her mother's face, because Xunyi didn't even give her a portrait."

"Actually, the authorities are obsessed. You think Liu Ying is dispensable, but in Changqing's eyes, she is indispensable because Liu Ying gave birth to her." Wei Lingci stared deeply at Tang Mo, his eyes were like torches, and seeing her Confused, his fingertips rested slightly on the tea lid, as if in a state of ecstasy.

She shot out suddenly, her fingertips flew over, and touched half of Tang Mo's mask, and easily took off the silver mask. Although the sneak attack was not an act of benevolence, but for that person, she really could do it' play hard'.

Perhaps Tang Mo was so engrossed by her touch on the past that she didn't realize that Wei Lingci would sneak up on her at this moment. When she woke up, it was too late. Her face was just like the one she told Xun Changqing for the first time. , ugly, beyond words to describe.

There was no trace of shock in Wei Lingci's eyes. Tang Mo leaned on the chair without moving, quietly looking at the mask in Wei Lingci's hand, and said with a sad smile: "Liu Ying is beautiful, but I am so beautiful. In this way, I'm afraid it will tarnish the image of a mother in His Majesty's heart. Why are you persecuting me? I didn't stop you from being together... No, I'm the same as Xun Yi... I have no right to make choices for her. She is the best in the world The person who is in love with you is you—Wei Lingci."

Her voice was not as sharp as usual, it was very light, very light, it fell on people's heart, and it was extremely heavy.Wei Lingci returned the mask to her respectfully, and lowered his eyes, "Didn't you collapse in blood back then, or was someone chasing you?"

Now that the matter has come to an end, Tang Mo knows that Wei Lingci is smart, too much entanglement will only make others see the clues, she has always been a decisive person, why not tell Wei Lingci directly, she will not reveal the secret for the sake of the little emperor.

"Although I am a girl from the south of the Yangtze River, I have traveled the rivers and lakes for a long time. After I met Xun Yi, I was indeed attracted to him. The Hou family is as deep as the sea. I didn't want to enter, let alone a name. So I bought a house in the suburbs. Waiting for him to come over every day. He is a prince, but also a general, he has his own responsibilities, I will not force him to see me every day."

"I only asked him to be by my side during the delivery, but he refused, and I left after he went to Southwest in a fit of anger. I thought that no one knew about our affairs, and I didn't care whether someone followed me, deep and shallow Qian, I couldn't see through the methods in the backyard of the palace, until when I was about to give birth, someone found out the yard where I was temporarily staying, and set fire to the yard at night, at that time, my fetal gas was alarmed and I gave birth to a child."

Tang Mo paused, rubbing the mask with her fingertips, her face haggard, Wei Lingci knew that she was restraining her emotions, and Xun Yi's friendship seemed very weak in front of the fire, not even as good as a loyal servant beside her.

After a while, she continued: "Rihan, it was the child I adopted who escaped from the back door holding the newborn baby. Men in black came in front. They were not afraid of death and surrounded everyone, including me. I I just gave birth, so I couldn't beat them, I was surrounded by fire, and my appearance was ruined, it was the servants who desperately took me out of the fire."

Wei Lingci frowned, puzzled, she knew the feeling of being burned by fire, voluntary and forced were different, her heart was ashamed, she had been alone for decades before choosing this way to solve her life, she still felt pain, not to mention trying her best struggling person.

"But why did you return the child to Xun Yi?"

"That's because I believe that Xunyi knows I'm dead and feels guilty, so she will treat her kindly."

Hearing the word kindness, Wei Lingci couldn't help sneering, the misery of the previous life hit his heart again, the cold breath froze the blood, and laughed: "Do you believe in Xunyi? He has Daqi in his heart, he has the late emperor, and he will treat children kindly." ? Xun Changqing's death... Xun Changqing hasn't talked about his father for 14 years. It can be said that he has no choice but to guard the border, but he raised his elder brothers with protection. Do you think his guilt is worth it?"

Wei Lingci's words were extremely sharp, she didn't feel sorry for Liu Ying, on the contrary, she was responsible for the tragedy in her previous life.

"Xun Yi can treat her as a proton, which means that he doesn't have you in his heart. The tablet that welcomes you into the mansion is just for the world to see. Let Xun Changqing explain."

She knew that Xun Changqing loved Liu Ying now because she did not have a complete family in her two lifetimes, and what is missing is always what people yearn for. Even if she knew that she would not be able to recognize Liu Ying, meeting her would satisfy her wish.

Wei Lingci stared at her, and after a while, the water in his eyes flickered, "You know who set fire to kill you, Gu Liangyin was dead at that time, and Ana Yanran just entered Daqi, so she won't oppose you , are the two side concubines? It seems that you have avenged yourself, is it Xunluo's mother Wang Lin?"

A tear fell from Tang Mo's eyes, and her heart ached, "Yes, I checked for a long time, and I found out that every time Xun Yi went back to my place, someone would follow her. Xun Yi doesn't like Ana Yanran. If I enter the mansion, I will definitely hinder her. After the child entered the mansion, Ana Yanran protected her very closely. When I was working in the household department, I knew that the frontier man treated her well, so I was relieved."

"So after I took her away, you deliberately pretended to provoke the Shao family and was dismissed from office. I thought it was a coincidence that you and I met, and it was also a coincidence that you taught me martial arts. I didn't know that all of this was your scheme, but I didn't As you wish, teach her the sword technique."

"She is not suitable for martial arts." Tang Mo shook her head slightly, raised her eyes, her eyes were dark, and begged: "Don't tell her, I will leave here, and I will not come back if it is not necessary. These years, I have been empty Xun Yi, as long as she is cruel enough to abandon the father-daughter bond that shouldn't exist, Xun Yi can't do anything to her."

It was the same sentence, Wei Lingci's heart trembled, and he knew that this was the best ending, Tang Mo was just one step away, how could it be ruined by her hands, she nodded, "Just pretend I haven't been here before."

After finishing speaking, he strode away without staying any longer.Tang Mo in the room stood silently for a long time, then slowly put the mask back on her face, and said lightly, "Come out."

"Master," Rihan outside the door called tremblingly, his eyes red, "why didn't you tell her that everything you did was for His Majesty, it's not that you don't love her, but you dare not love her, you I'm sorry for her, but you have done enough. Why let Wei Lingci misunderstand you."

Tang Mo opened her mouth, unable to utter a word, raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and looked outside at the blue sky in the late spring, with floating clouds drifting around without root, her eyes were slightly rippling with autumn water, faintly showing the intoxicating beauty of that year. shine.

"Rihan, Wei Ling's poems are very clever. She doesn't need me to say more, she will understand. Now that she is adopted by the first emperor and the queen mother is alive, I shouldn't make things difficult for her. By the way, help me bring her a copy of the painting so that she won't have to worry about it." They always say they haven’t seen my face.”
