Qing Yan

In Kuntai Palace, Jing Yan remained silent, time seemed to have stopped for her.

A quarter of an hour?Still an hour?Or is it a year?lifetime?

Jing Yan suddenly woke up when he realized that his whole body was stiff and numb, and found that he had been sitting in a brocade quilt for an unknown amount of time.

With a slight movement, Jing Yan frowned, not only the muscles, but also the joints seemed to have froze.

She endured the discomfort and moved around a few times before she managed to get better.She cheered up somewhat, but when she looked up and saw the bathtub in the middle of the room, her eyes dimmed again.

Yu Wenrui's every move, every word and deed, I don't know how many times it went back and forth in Jing Yan's mind before, and it couldn't be dispelled like a demon.

Jing Yan bowed her head dejectedly, the blood on the fingertips of the index finger and middle finger of her right hand had already dried up, but it was still burning her heart.

Jing Yan clenched his palm tightly and put his fingers into his palm.

But what is the difference between accepting and not accepting?It's just deception.

Thinking of Yu Wenrui's resolute appearance, Jing Yan's heart suddenly tightened, making her breath almost choked.

She stubbornly let go of her palm, forcing herself to stare at the blood that had dried up and turned dark red——

That's worry-free...

Whether it is calculated or forced, the facts are the facts——

I took away my worry-free virginity.

If he was the one whose body was forcibly taken, at most, if he was greedy for a moment of happiness, he would use his body to repay Wuyou's love.Afterwards, he repaid Zhe's affection with his death.In this way, if you don't owe any kindness or resentment in your life, you will feel at ease under Jiuquan.

But, by chance, this enemy forced himself to take her body!

How could, how could he just let go of her?

Jing Yan closed her eyes tightly in pain.

However, Yu Wenrui's eyebrows furrowed due to the pain, the cold sweat dripping from the broken wound, and the harsh words he let down because of the pain... didn't disappear even a little because Jing Yan closed his eyes.On the contrary, the tight body, messy clothes, and refreshing breath, like a chisel carved by a knife, became more and more vivid and profound in Jing Yan's memory, no matter what he could not erase it.

Jing Yan's eyes opened again, clear and decisive, she knew that she couldn't bear that person.

She could give up her own life, but she couldn't give up her worry-free life alone.

Is it because the blood from Wuyou's heart is flowing in the body?So, empathize with her hurt and pain?

Or is it because, having her, the thought of her walking alone in this world, and the thought of the pain she would feel if she died, would make her feel even more painful?

To live is to live up to the philosophy of heaven; to die is to live up to the carefree world.

Can't live, can't die.Let me ask: Is there a kind of existence between heaven and earth, which is called neither birth nor death, or is it both life and death?

Jing Yan laughed bitterly at himself, the smile was so bitter that tears filled his eyes.

She raised her face vigorously, facing the carved pattern on the top of the tent.

Don't cry, don't cry...

she said to herself.

The affairs of the world can never be solved by crying heartily.

"Queen Mother..." There was a thin, probing voice like a gnat coming from outside the door.

Jing Yan froze, regained consciousness in an instant, and recognized that it was Bingbi's voice.

"Come in." Her voice was calm and solemn, and she changed back to the queen mother of Da Zhou.

Bing Bi and Shi Mo who were waiting outside the door were greatly relieved when they heard this sound.

More than two hours ago, the emperor ordered Shen Quan to drive the two of them away, and then only the queen mother and the emperor were left in the room.Then, the emperor came out bloody alone, still holding the "Non-Gong" sword in his hand!It was really bloody, half of his body was soaked in blood.

Bing Bi and Shi Mo were terrified, they just wanted to rush in immediately to see how the Queen Mother was doing.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Shen Quan hurriedly wrapped the cloak outside the emperor's clothes.

The emperor left him to work expressionlessly, glanced at the two of Bingbi, and said coldly: "The Queen Mother has fallen asleep. Please don't disturb me!"

With that said, he left without looking back.

Bing Bi and Shi Mo had to take back the steps they had taken, thinking about the emperor's meaning: Is this the meaning of not letting them in?But, if you don't go in and take a look, how can you feel at ease?

Therefore, for nearly two hours, the two of them whispered to the Queen Mother almost every quarter of an hour, but to no avail.

Did the Queen Mother really fall asleep?The two looked at each other, feeling uneasy in their hearts.

Until now, the queen mother finally responded, and the two rushed in hastily.But just seeing the Queen Mother, they all blushed and lowered their heads.

Jing Yan noticed their strangeness, looked down at himself, and immediately blushed——

She actually forgot that she was still naked under the brocade quilt.

"..." Jing Yan's mind went blank for a moment, and embarrassment and embarrassment occupied her, making her porcelain-white body flush with shame.

Bing Bi and Shi Mo felt more than embarrassment at the moment?It was like a galloping horse, full of surprise and fear: What did the queen mother and the emperor do before?Why would the queen mother be naked|naked?Why is His Majesty covered in blood?His Majesty also said, "The Empress Dowager has fallen asleep"?scare!Could it be that His Majesty did something to the Queen Mother and was injured by the Queen Mother swinging a sword?

The two dare not think about it anymore.No matter what the specific details are, it is a private matter of the Tian family. If they find out, will they be in danger of their lives?

Fortunately, Bingbi was quick-witted, and hurriedly said: "Your servant, carry this tub down..."

But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Bingbi wanted to bite off his tongue——bath, bath!What do you do after bathing?Why can't you skip that thing?

Jing Yan was calm.Rather than saying that she has regained the dignity that belonged to the Queen Mother of the Great Zhou, it is better to say that at this moment, she is physically and mentally exhausted.How could she not see the strange look of the two maids?But she had no time to think about it.

"Both of you, serve Ai's family to change clothes first."

Hearing this, the second servant girl felt relieved.It would be the best if the Queen Mother could bring this matter to a close.Who doesn't want to live a peaceful life in stop and go?Who likes to be in fear every day?

While changing clothes, Shi Mo saw Jing Yan's sleepy expression, obviously exhausted, and felt distressed, and said: "The dining room has already prepared dinner, the queen mother can use some?"

Jing Yan was slightly startled when he heard the word "dinner", and glanced out the window, "It's night?"

"It's two quarters of Xu time." Shi Mo replied.

Jing Yan was shocked: "Where's the emperor?"

Bing Bi and Shi Mo paused, looked at each other, Shi Mo said: "Your Majesty left two hours ago."

"Where is she now?" Jing Yan asked anxiously.

The second servant said ashamedly: "The Queen Mother calm down! It is the servants who are incompetent and unable to leave Kuntai Palace..."

Jing Yan was stunned for a moment, and then understood: The Empress Dowager had grounded herself before, not to mention the little maid, even herself, at this moment without the approval of the Empress Dowager, she was inseparable.

But how could she rest assured?

Jing Yan's eyes slid to the sword that was originally placed in front of the incense burner on the case. At this moment, there was only an empty sword holder——

Wuyou forcibly took the sword away, and said those words again, what on earth is she going to do?

The Empress Dowager passed away when she returned to the Shoukang Palace. She had just grounded the Empress Dowager in the Kuntai Palace before, and she was displeased with the Emperor. The maids who served her personally did not dare to disturb the two of them, so they had to act first. Shi Ran was invited to treat the Empress Dowager.

When Shi Ran stepped out of the Empress Dowager's inner room, he saw Yu Wenrui standing outside with his hands behind his back.

"I have seen His Majesty!" Shi Ran saluted.

Yu Wenrui nodded and said: "Ai Qing has worked hard! How is the queen mother's phoenix body?"

Seeing that there are proper people around, Shi Ran said in relief: "The empress dowager's phoenix body is fine, it's just... a moment of anger."

He didn't go on.Although the Empress Dowager has a good age, she has been well maintained. If there is no reason for the incident, she will never faint suddenly.But what was the reason for the Empress Dowager to be like this?No matter how deep the relationship between Shi Ran and the harem of the Great Zhou Dynasty is, he is still a foreign minister after all, which is not what he should know.

Yu Wenrui frowned slightly, and said: "I know."

Seeing her pale and bloodless appearance, Shi Ran couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty should also take care of the dragon's body without authorization."

Yu Wenrui nodded and moved inside.

Not waiting for the maid to meet the emperor, Yu Wenrui had already arrived at the empress dowager's bed, lifted her robe, and knelt down on her knees: "Mother queen!"

The Empress Dowager had just taken the decoction, and she was leaning on the pillow, while Yu Jue was stroking her back.

Seeing that it was Yu Wenrui, the Empress Dowager raised her face with a dark gray face, "Are you here to intercede for Mrs. Jing?"

Yu Wenrui didn't answer her words, she stared at the empress dowager's sickly face, felt pain in her heart, and said with shame: "The child is unfilial, and the empress is angry..."

When the Empress Dowager heard what she said, her complexion softened a little, and she said softly, "I don't blame you. You belong to the common people in the world. You need to decide the future of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the government affairs of the court. How can you spare your mind to take care of the harem?"

Yu Wenrui saw that her words still had the meaning of complaining about Jing Yan, she was silent for a moment, and said to the maids: "You all, step back!"

The maid next to her was fine, but the Empress Dowager trusted Yujue and Jade Bi, even Jing Yan had to pay her respects. The two of them were only the Empress Dowager, so how could they easily obey the emperor's orders?

The Empress Dowager was puzzled and said, "A Rui, what are you going to do?"

"I have a few words that I want to say to my mother," Yu Wenrui replied.

The Empress Dowager was even more puzzled, but in the end she waved away everyone, leaving only the mother and daughter in the room.

No one knew what the two of them said, and the door remained tightly closed for half an hour.

However, there was silence at first, and then there was a crisp sound, as if the sound of a cup being smashed somewhere; then the Empress Dowager sternly reprimanded, but it was unclear exactly what the content was.

Later, the silence returned.

The servants of Shoukang Palace and the retinue brought by the emperor all stayed outside, with several hearts raised in their throats at the same time.No one knows what happened inside that door, and no one knows how what is happening will affect themselves or this country.

That door was finally opened.

Everyone hurriedly lowered their heads, fearing that the most honorable person in Dazhou who came out of the door would see their impolite gaze.

"Please come again, Shi Ran." Yu Wenrui's voice remained steady.

But Yujue and Yubi's hearts were raised because of this sentence, one was busy calling for someone to invite, and the other rushed in to check the situation of the Empress Dowager.

Yu Wenrui left a word and strode out.

Shen Quan hurriedly followed her, and when he looked up, his face paled in shock——

Yu Wenrui's right hand was pressing on the right forehead, and bright red blood overflowed from between his fingers.
