spring as old

The beginning of autumn has passed, and the coolness is gradually rising.

After dinner, it was still dark.Wei Xiu sat in a wheelchair and turned her head to look out the window.Outside the window is no longer a lush greenery.I don't know when the color of the lush greenery faded, and a few pinches of withered yellow appeared.It is conceivable that soon, the greenery of the garden will fade away, turning into a bare, withered and dilapidated scene.

The autumn harvest is about to begin.The weather is good this year, and it should be able to alleviate the disasters suffered in the past and the year before.Wei Xiu thought aimlessly.Since when, these things that she never cared about will pay special attention to.

Pu Yang was sitting one step away from her, Wei Xiu looked out of the window, her whole body seemed to be drifting away from the sky, and she looked at Wei Xiu, waiting for her to turn around.Full of worries, once in front of Wei Xiu, it seemed that they suddenly became irrelevant.She waited for Wei Xiu to look back at her, and she was willing to wait as long as she wanted.

The palace people walked in slowly, added lights silently, and then retreated silently.

Wei Xiu never looked back.Her gaze was always outside the window, dusk had turned into night, and the scene of early autumn mixed with yellow and green was already dark, making it hard to tell what year and season it was.

They are in the same room, only a short distance away, but there seems to be a thick barrier between them, Puyang can't get through, and Wei Xiu can't get through.

They always have to have a break.

After a long time, Wei Xiu slowly opened her mouth: "My real name is Zhong Meng, and Zhong Gong is my father. I came to Beijing with the intention of revenge, and I followed you because you can be used by me."

As soon as the words came out, Wei Xiu felt that her heart was empty, it hurt, but she was also relieved.She looked at Pu Yang, Pu Yang was not surprised at all, let alone shocked, even the pain in her eyes was so properly concealed, without revealing anything.

Wei Xiu understood, she already knew it.She bowed her head and smiled, it turned out that she already knew.In the past few days, Puyang's abnormality has been explained, and she has explained the lies she told, and she is not the only one who shares the same bed with different dreams.

Wei Xiu raised her head, looked over indifferently, and asked in her usual calm tone, "I don't know what you want to ask me, Your Majesty?"

That layer of covering cloth was lifted, and both of them became naked.The way she looked at her was like looking at a stranger. There was no warmth at all. The tenderness she had treated each other over the years was wiped away with every word she said.Pu Yang's heart felt like being slaughtered by a knife blade, and it hurt so badly.But at this point, Axiu must not want to see her hysterical.

Pu Yang also imitated her calm and reserved manner, and asked: "First, is the death of the late emperor related to you?"

She has checked here?Wei Xiu turned her head to look at her, smiled with the corners of her lips, and asked: "Does Your Majesty think that he doesn't deserve to die?"

Following her words, tears flowed up all of a sudden, Pu Yang tried his best to hold back.The enmity between the two families was thus revealed, and Wei Xiu in front of him was so unfamiliar that Pu Yang could hardly recognize him.She forced herself not to look at Wei Xiu's cold eyes like ice knives, not to care about her hostility, her hatred, but to ask stubbornly: "You just said, did you kill the late emperor?"

She didn't know that her eyes were red, and she didn't realize that her voice was almost choked.

Wei Xiu turned her eyes away and didn't look at her: "The late emperor lived in the palace, how can I have this ability. It's the king of Jin, he went to poison her personally, I'm just watching."

On the way back to the palace, Wei Xiu was thinking, if she had never fallen in love with Qiniang, if she had just used her all this time, how would she respond when it came time to tell the truth?

She can no longer ignore the souls of her relatives and insist on staying with Qiniang. Besides, the gap is hard to bridge, and they can't get along as before.

That being the case, why bother to leave thoughts for Qiniang, it is better to break the fate.

Seeing that Pu Yang was obviously relieved, Wei Xiu shook her head helplessly in her heart.The death of the first emperor was caused by King Jin. If Qiniang wanted to investigate, she would definitely find out. If there are traces to follow, it cannot be faked.Only people's hearts can be fake.She will pretend to be sincere, making Qiniang think that she is an unworthy person.

Pu Yang walked up to her, bent down and looked at her: "Second, do you have sincerity towards me?"

Wei Xiu seemed to have heard a big joke, she laughed lightly, looked at Puyang, shook her head, and laughed again: "If it were your Majesty, would you be tempted by the daughter of your enemy?"

Pu Yang didn't seem to see her sarcasm, nor did she see her hatred: "I will, if you, I will."

Wei Xiu froze for a moment, Pu Yang stroked her cheek, looked at her softly, she smiled, anyone could see the bitterness in that smile, but she never retreated, never wavered, and said softly: " Axiu, being able to marry you is the best thing I have ever done in my life. You said that you want to spend the rest of your life with me. This is the best promise I have ever heard. I know you hate me and Xiao Shi. It must be just a joke you used to coax me," she finally shed the tears she endured for a long time, "but I take it seriously, I really want to spend my life with you."

At this point, she still spoke out what was in her heart, even though she knew that what she could get in exchange for these words at this time was Wei Xiu's sneering words, she still spoke out.Between them, she was the one who was tempted first, and she was the one who kept her when it came to an end.

"Axiu, today, if you tell me the truth, do you ever have the slightest sincerity to me?" Pu Yang's eyes were red and tears were all over her face, she insisted on asking Wei Xiu to say something.

Wei Xiu gently wiped away the tears on her face, and under her fingertips was Puyang's skin, which was soft and delicate, which made her nostalgic for it.This is her beacon, the only warmth in her thorny life.She is so dazzling, like the warm winter sun, that she is redeemed.But today, she will push her away with her own hands.From then on, she was alone again, enduring her boring life.

Pu Yang was already surprised, her expression was a little stiff, but she didn't move, she stuck to Wei Xiu's fingertips, and let her touch obediently.Her eyes became bright, a little timid, but more of anticipation.

Wei Xiu's heart also jumped for joy, as if they had broken through many barriers and were able to be together without barriers and knots.It was always like this, Pu Yang could easily touch her heartstrings.

She couldn't help thinking, if there was such a day, it would be great.

But all she can do is hurt the person she truly loves.Wei Xiu's gaze softened, but it was not the gentleness of the past. On the contrary, it seemed to contain cruel pleasure: "Because of the situation, I have to marry you. I still feel humiliated thinking about it. On the night of the wedding, the late emperor suddenly fell ill, so I can't touch you." You, you don’t know how lucky I am. Every moment I’m with you, I’m extremely tormented, and I want to leave all the time. I’ve never been tempted by you, and your thoughts are just ridiculous in my eyes. "

The air seemed to be frozen.Every word Wei Xiu said was like a stab in Puyang's heart.

The anticipation in Pu Yang's eyes has not yet dissipated, but his heart is already dripping with blood.So that's how she saw her.She looked at Wei Xiu in a daze, but Wei Xiu still had that cold look.

If it was true as she said, Axiu would probably feel disgusted even to look at her more.Pu Yang moved her lips, and her eyes gradually filled with fear and dodge.He didn't dare to look at Weixiu, and didn't dare to speak again.

After an unknown amount of time, she stood up slowly, her body was stiff and her steps were also stiff, like a taut bow that would break and be destroyed if someone touched it slightly.She walked very slowly, every step seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, but she never looked back, and walked out stiffly and sluggishly.

The door closed, and Wei Xiu was the only one left in the room.She closed her eyes, and after a while, she finally found the courage to call out silently: "Qiniang..."

Naturally, no one should answer her.

fair enough.

She lives in the dark, unable to advance or retreat.And Qiniang didn't need to accompany her to be tortured.

Life is long, she has the world, she has ten thousand people, after a few years, maybe there will be someone who can stand by her side, there is no enmity between them that cannot be dissipated, there is no gap that cannot be bridged, and he will be like her. Her Qiniang, at that time, she will just be Qiniang's unbearable past.At that time, regardless of whether it is a man or a woman, she only hopes that her Qiniang can be happy and peaceful.

That's enough.

After this day, Puyang did not show up in Hanguang Palace, nor did she set up another palace to live in, and only rested in Xuande Palace.Wei Xiu never took the initiative to look for her.

There is no connection between them at all, as if there is no each other in this palace.

One month after Puyang ascended the throne, envoys from all directions finally entered Beijing.There are those who congratulate the court, and there are also those who use the congratulations to make trouble.These are all trivial matters, the great Wei is strong and prosperous, the country is prosperous and the people are safe, no matter what the neighbors are, they are just showing off their words, and even this, they are not proud of it for a long time, and they are ridiculed and ridiculed by the ministers.

The kings of Han and Teng complained of illness for several days, and never went to court, and even held banquets in the palace, but they refused to excuse them. They hid in the mansion, and they felt very good.

Pu Yang dealt with these things every day, he didn't think about Wei Xiu, let alone what she said.

But since things exist, how can she be allowed to avoid them.

As soon as the envoys left, the Jinwu Guard took action.

After more than a month of arrangements, almost all of Wei Xiu's subordinates were arrested.Things didn't go so smoothly, but Puyang and Weixiu have been together for many years, even if they never bothered to ask, it is inevitable that they know some inside information, relying on these inside information, Zhi Jinwu pulled up a network of people, and did things cleanly.

This matter is so serious that it cannot be concealed from anyone, everyone in the court guessed what kind of rift had arisen between the couple in the palace, among them Grand Master Wei's family was the most disturbed, they entered the palace one after another to ask for an audience.

Pu Yang was not seen at all.

It was the next day when Wei Xiu learned about this matter, she stayed in the palace just to wait for Puyang to deal with it.No, she didn't show up for several days, but arranged in secret, and cleaned up her people.

Wei Xiu couldn't tell what it was like.Yan Huan, A Rong, and many others have been with her for more than ten years. They have protected her, taken care of her, and been loyal to her, just like relatives.

She already felt that she would give up revenge and feel sorry for Yan Huan and those who lost their relatives because of Xiao Yi like her. At this time, it was naturally impossible to ignore them.

Pu Yang was waiting for her in Xuande Hall, she knew she would definitely come.She doesn't like her and doesn't care about her, but she will never care about those who are loyal to her wholeheartedly.

Between them, there must be a settlement after all.

Wei Xiu came very quickly.

She was ushered in by the servant outside the door without reporting.

As soon as Pu Yang saw her, he waved his hands and turned away all the people in the palace.

The Xuande Hall already has the taste of Puyang, her favorite decorations, the paper and pens she is used to, are all laid out in the hall.

Wei Xiu saw the difference at a glance.She moved forward silently, stopped three steps away from the royal case, and bowed to salute.

Pu Yang stood up, walked in front of Wei Xiu, stared at her blankly for a while.

Wei Xiu is still the same, nothing has changed.Only the brows were a little more gloomy, and her expression was not very good. She was weak and cold these days, Puyang was very worried about her, but she had long since lost the right to care about her.She could only inquire about Wei Xiu's daily life from the palace population.

She raised her hand to test the temperature of Wei Xiu's hand, but Wei Xiu dodged it lightly.

Pu Yang lowered his head and smiled, no longer forcing himself.She went to the window and closed it. After much deliberation, she was still worried, and said a word: "It's getting colder, don't forget to add more clothes."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern." Wei Xiu replied.

So clear, so alienated and indifferent.

Pu Yang knew that no matter how much she said, it would be superfluous in Axiu's eyes. What she did was nothing but insulting herself.However, she had no dignity at all in front of Axiu, so she wasn't afraid to appear a little lower.

Pu Yang personally went to pour a cup of hot tea and served it to Wei Xiu.

Wei Xiu looked at her and took it.The heat of the tea passed through the white porcelain cup to her hands, it was indeed much warmer.

Seeing her take the teacup she offered, Pu Yang showed a slight smile, looking very happy, as if Wei Xiu's inconspicuous gesture could take her from hell to fairyland.

"Axiu," Pu Yang still called her like that, without causing any barriers, she sat a little far away, as if she was afraid that Wei Xiu would be bored if she got close.Pu Yang looked gentle, and said calmly: "I know why you came here."

Seeing her like this, Wei Xiu felt distressed beyond words.How deep is the love to tolerate her hurt again and again, to cover up the riddles in my heart, and still treat her with a gentle face.
