All night, he looked at the peaceful sleeping face nestled in his arms. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, her thick eyelashes cast a row of shadows, and her pretty nose would occasionally twitch. Her hands were always around his waist, like a
The helpless child is looking for a little warmth.
She didn't know what she was dreaming about, her expression suddenly became sad, and then a low sob escaped her lips.
"Qing'er...Qing'er..."
A tear came out of the corner of my eye and slid down all the way.
He wiped it away gently and gently took her into his arms.
Maybe, he should tell her everything.
The person in his arms squirmed uneasily, his beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly, and his eyes slowly opened.
When she saw his peaceful sleeping face, she smiled lightly, and for a moment, the smile froze on her face. She reminded herself in annoyance that she could not forget, and could never forget, that he was the murderer of her brother! The chuckle was replaced by a sneer.
, now, everything is just the beginning.
Gently taking her hands away, Mai Mai sat up, got out of bed, and put her clothes back on one by one.
"Why don't you sleep more?"
Upon hearing his voice, Mai Mai's movements immediately froze. She turned around, looked into his clear eyes, and then turned her head away in a panic. She could not be seduced by the gentleness there.
"King Wang, it's time for you to return to your Nianxi Palace." The ruthless eviction order was like a bucket of cold water being poured down from the head.
He frowned slightly, put on his long gown, and walked behind her, "Do you want me to go back?" After she gave her first night to him?
"Haha, King Hao, you are not mine. Why should I keep you here? Oh, by the way," Mai Mai turned her head as if remembering something, "You have a close brotherhood with King Zhao. I think, I and I
When King Zhao gets married, you will definitely come to watch the ceremony, right?" Her eyes, as bright as stars, stared at him closely. She saw the shock he showed instantly, saw his injury, and was silent. Isn't this what she
Expected?
She should be happy, why, why didn't she feel the slightest bit excited when she saw the hurt in his eyes.
Gritting her teeth, she looked away. She would never forget Qing'er's death, let alone her hatred for him! All this was just the beginning, the beginning of his punishment!
"What? Not happy?" Mai Mai smiled nonchalantly, "You can do anything for King Zhao, right? It shouldn't be a big deal to give me up to him." She looked a little tired and snuggled into his arms,
"King Zhao likes me very much. He said that no matter where I am, I can see him as long as I look back. Hey, how can such an affectionate man not be moved?"
Snuggling in his arms, but telling the goodness of another man. There is nothing more cruel than this, and that person is the sixth brother he cares about most.
He understood that this was just one of her means of revenge. She did not hesitate to use her first night as a bargaining chip, only to hurt him deeper. He should not forget, wasn't this what he expected? He wanted her to hate him.
Is the sixth brother she wants to marry...
"Why don't you speak?" Sensing his silence, Mai Mai raised her head and said with disdain, "Aren't you happy for your sixth brother? He finally got what he wanted. Even if... the other person is the woman you care about.
"This is a script she wrote, and everything is as she expected. Except for the heartache in her heart,
"If you do this, will you give up your hatred?" He gently stroked her cheek and stared quietly into the pair of eyes he loved most.
Mai Mai was startled, then concealed a mocking smile, "Hate? Is it useful? In your heart, no one is more important than your sixth brother. Even if I want to marry him, you won't be heartbroken." This time, she bet.
She fell in love with everyone, but she never looked back.
He twitched the corners of his mouth, with an intoxicating smile on his handsome face. Ever since she appeared, he seemed to be getting more and more accustomed to this action.
"Yes, and it will hurt a lot." His tone was calm and calm.
She raised her eyes and stared at him, "It hurts? Do you feel pain too?" She just smiled contemptuously in response to his words. Then she softened her body and leaned towards him again, her delicate hands ambiguously inserted into his clothes, and gently touched him.
Caressing, "You and I have already had skin-to-skin contact, how could I forget you? When your sixth brother and I get married and you miss me, come find me."
His frivolous eyes exuded seductive charm.
Gently pushing her away and turning around, not wanting to take another look would make him look more pitiful. If this is what she wants, he will make it happen.
"I just want you to be kind to yourself."
The moment the door closed, Mai Mai could no longer pretend and fell to the ground. She buried her face in her knees in pain. Was she torturing him or herself? She could hardly resist the growing weight in her heart.
of pain.
She jumped up suddenly and rushed into the courtyard in one breath, breathing with her mouth wide open. She couldn't retreat, absolutely not!
"Hey, Miss? You got up so early!" Ah Shang bowed and walked to her, "Miss, your eyes are red and swollen. Is it because you didn't sleep last night?"
"It's okay," Mai Mai turned her head to the side unnaturally, "Ah Shang, send someone to ask for King Zhao." He clutched the hem of his skirt with both hands, trying his best to suppress his panic.
"Oh, yes." Ah Shang looked at her with a complicated look, agreed and walked out of the garden.
Wan Qizhao rushed to Yanxia Residence without hesitation. When he saw her figure, he couldn't hide his excitement and smiled, "Xuanyun, what do you want from me?"
"King Zhao," Mai Mai was still sitting in the courtyard. Although the cool breeze had penetrated her thin shirt, it could cool down the annoyance in her heart. "Drink a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up." Her gentle tone said,
Wan Qizhao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Excuse me, is it Xiaosheng's deep affection that moved the beauty?"
"Haha," Mai Mai smiled softly, "Do you want me to keep talking coldly to you?"
Infected by Mai Mai's rare good mood, Wan Qizhao sat next to her and stared at her with smiling eyes, "Did you dream about me last night?" After just one night, her attitude towards him was like a different person.
Similar.
"Do you want to marry me?"
Wan Qizhao, who had just taken a sip of tea, almost choked at the sudden words.
"You..." The evil eyes widened in surprise, "You say it again?"
"I was once the deposed concubine of King Qing, do you care?" Mai Mai said directly, with a slightly pale face, and remained calm and unfazed.
"Xuanyun, you are finally willing to accept me!" After hearing her words clearly, Wan Qizhao held her hand emotionally, "As long as you nod, you will be my wife, Wan Qizhao! You will be mine in this life.
only."
Slowly taking out his hand, Mai Mai smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's not that easy to marry the dragon girl."
"Haha, as long as I am here, you don't need to worry about anything." Wan Qizhao said firmly, "Xuanyun, I will let you marry me gracefully. I want everyone in the world to know that you are just my princess, Wan Qizhao.
!”
Gently, she nodded. Whether it was good or bad, it didn't matter to her. What mattered was that she was about to marry this man and let another person taste the feeling of losing a loved one.
"I'm going to talk to my father now." Wan Qizhao stood up excitedly, turned to leave, but stopped again, "Xuanyun, am I not dreaming?" His uncertainty was revealed.
With a heart-wrenching timidity.
"No." Mai Mai shook her head, telling him and warning herself. None of this was a dream, just a script she had written.
"Yeah." He responded briskly.
It wasn't until he stepped out of Yanxia Residence that his smiling face gradually dimmed.
"Master, we found out the identity of the person who committed the assassination last night." The person accompanying him hurried forward to report.
"Say." The evil eyes were slightly narrowed with determination.
"It's King Jing."
"Is it him?" After a long silence, "Go to Nian Xi Palace."
"yes."
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This should be their first meeting after that incident.
"Brother Six." The calm voice remained the same.
"Seventh brother." The gentle voice did not change.
But the atmosphere surrounding the two of them seemed to be filled with alienation.
"Seventh brother, it seems that your health is much better." The corners of his mouth curved.
"Thank you, Sixth Brother, for your concern."
"Last night..." Wan Qizhao paused slightly and glanced at him.
Wanqixun's expression remained unchanged, "How?"
"Third brother sent people to Yanxiaju to assassinate Xuanyun, did you know?"
"Really?" As if he was a little tired, Wan Qihan slowly sat on the chair and stroked his forehead.
"Seventh brother seems to be very tired." He asked casually, but his tone was no longer as gentle as before.
"Brother Six," Wan Qixun sat up straight and looked at him meaningfully, "I said, as long as Brother Six wants it, I will never say anything!"
Slowly lowering his eyes and sitting next to him, Wan Qizhao sighed softly, "Seventh brother, you won't blame me, right? Sixth brother can't help it. I believe that you already know everything.
"He smiled helplessly, "Until something big happens, I'm just a chess piece with no control over it."
"The brotherhood between you and me is also a step in this chess game."
At this time, Wanqi Xun actually gave him a strange feeling. He understood everything. If there was no poison in his body and he joined the battle prematurely, wouldn't the outcome have been announced long ago?
Now, who is controlling his poison? Is it him?
"Seventh Brother, have you ever blamed Sixth Brother?" Now that the conversation had begun, it would be petty to hide it any more. Wan Qizhao simply asked him once.
"I only remember that when I was most alone, Brother Six was by my side." So many times that I would forget that it was someone's instruction.
"Seventh brother," Wan Qixun's answer made him slightly moved, "Sixth brother, protect yourself before anything happens." After so many years of brotherhood, he didn't take it into his heart. During this time, he could only ask for himself.
What a blessing.
"The same goes for Sixth Brother." At this time, all the things hidden in the dark should come to the surface. He has repaid enough for Sixth Brother's love.
He stood up and said, "Seventh brother, I will choose a day to marry Xuanyun."
He raised his eyes slightly and said, "Congratulations, Sixth Brother."
"About Qing'er..."
"Brother Six, don't mention the past anymore." Wan Qixun also stood up and looked level with him, "The same goes for the brotherhood between you and me." He turned around and walked out.
This love made him lose his most beloved woman.
His breathing became rapid, and there was a bit of fishy sweetness in his throat. He quickly adjusted his breath and slowly suppressed the rolling. It seemed that it would take some time for his poison to be completely eliminated. From the moment he knew that he had been poisoned,
From that day on, he had long been indifferent to life and death. But he could not be indifferent to her.
