"No, I have no tricks, I just..." Xianyue was so nervous that her voice was trembling, "I want to go back to the way we used to be with the emperor, I really don't want to be strangers to the emperor from now on. What happened before
, it’s my concubine’s fault, I shouldn’t have done this
In order to deal with the Su family, I knew that she wanted to harm the queen, but I still let it go. I know that I was wrong, and I beg you to give me another chance. I promise you that in the future... I will protect the queen and not let anyone harm her.
Can I promise you, my concubine?"
She stared at Hongli, then the latter, never speaking. As time went by, Xianyue's heart gradually cooled down. Could it be that...even this couldn't impress Hongli? She had given up all dignity, except
There is nothing left to give up in this life. What on earth...does Hongli want her to do?
In her anxiety, something cold fell on her long eyelashes, but Xianyue ignored it and just stared at Hongli unblinkingly. No matter what the outcome was, she wanted to hear what he had to say in person.
Hongli raised his hand to stroke away the coldness on her long eyelashes, and said softly: "Xianyue, look, it's snowing!"
"Your Majesty..." Xianyue didn't care at all whether it was snowing or not. She was just eager to know what Hongli's answer was.
Looking at the eager and nervous Xianyue, a warm smile that was completely opposite to the ice and snow appeared on Hongli's lips, "I will spend the first snow of this year with you. From now on, you will spend the first snow of every year."
Would you like to stay with me?"
Xianyue stared at him blankly. Suddenly, tears fell from her bright eyes like broken pearls one after another. She couldn't stop them no matter what.
Hongli caught the tears falling from her face and said with a half-smile: "Look at you like this, what's the matter? Are you not satisfied with what I said?"
"No! No!" Xianyue shook her head desperately, trying hard to swallow the astringency that was stuck in her throat, and choked out: "I am happy, I am happy that the emperor is willing to let me stay with you again. I was so happy just now.
Scared, really scared."
Hongli nodded and said: "I know, don't cry. Xianyue, I only have one request - don't... don't let me down again, okay?"
Xianyue shook her head urgently and said: "No, absolutely not. I will definitely not betray the emperor's trust."
"That's good." Hongli smiled slightly, took her hand and said, "The past is over. Now you can enjoy the snow with me."
"Yes." Xianyue nodded excitedly and looked up at the falling snowflakes. It was the most beautiful snow she had ever seen in her life. In the following decades, she had never seen night snow that could compare with it.
The next day, the news about Hongli staying at Yanxi Palace quickly spread throughout the palace, and naturally it also reached Mingyu's ears. Mingyu was so angry that he smashed the medicine bowl to pieces.
She obviously told Hongli just last night that she should not hand over the power of co-managing the Sixth Palace to Xianyue. In the blink of an eye, Hongli actually rested in the Yanxi Palace. Hongli... did he take himself into his heart?
Have you ever considered her feelings?
Xianyue, that woman was obviously so vicious and harmed one person after another, but Hongli and Ling Ruo seemed to be blinded by ghosts. After a trip to Qingliang Temple, when they came back, they not only stopped blaming her, but also praised her one after another.
, especially Hongli, who actually stayed in that woman's palace. How...how could he be worthy of himself?
Thinking of this, Mingyu was so angry that she almost couldn't breathe. The palace servant rubbed her chest and said, "Master, don't be angry. The imperial doctor said that you need to rest for your illness, especially you can't be angry."
Mingyu said angrily: "I am almost forced to have no way out, can you not be angry?"
While she was talking, a young eunuch came in and said, "Master, Concubine Xian is here to pay your respects."
Mingyu's face turned cold and he said coldly: "She actually has the nerve to come to see me. Tell her to come in."
"Hey!" the little eunuch agreed and retreated. Not long after, Xianyue, wearing a sapphire blue plum pattern and cloud brocade palace dress, appeared in Mingyu's sight.
Xiayue stepped forward, bowed her knees respectfully and said, "I respectfully wish the Queen to have a blessed blessing!"
Mingyu stared at her and said coldly: "I waited all day yesterday, but Concubine Xian didn't come. I thought Concubine Xian only saw the Queen Mother, and the Emperor could no longer see me."
"It's my concubine's fault that I didn't come to pay my respects to you yesterday. Please forgive me." As soon as Xianyue finished her words, Mingyu lowered her face and said sternly: "If you make a mistake, it's not a fault and you can forgive me.
Hasn't this happened before? Concubine Xian, you are really thick-skinned."
Xianyue endured the soreness between her knees, lowered her head and said, "I said something wrong, please forgive me."
"Condemn?" Mingyu sneered: "How dare I? Concubine Xian is now highly regarded by the Queen Mother and the Emperor. How dare I convict you? Aren't you afraid that you will sue me in front of the Queen Mother?"
Xianyue looked calmly and said: "I know what I am really blaming you for. It is because I was not good and did not stop the Su family in time, which caused my concubine to become allergic. I..."
"Don't mention this matter to me!" Mingyu interrupted her angrily, "I have always believed in you so much, but you have teased me like a fool. If it weren't for me, you would have married the emperor.
Are you doing it for the sake of blessing Jin? Without me, can you become the current Concubine Xian? But you are not grateful, but instead repay kindness with hatred. Concubine Xian, ask yourself, are you worthy of me?"
A Luo felt angry for a while and couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty..." However, as soon as she said two words, Xianyue stopped her and said: "Be brave, you are not allowed to be presumptuous in front of the Queen."
Mingyu coughed several times and said disgustedly: "You don't have to pretend to stop her here. Let her talk. I would like to hear what she has to say."
Xianyue smiled apologetically and said, "My dear, A'luo is just a servant. She has no right to speak in front of you. I will send her down right away so as not to taint your ears here."
Mingyu patted the bed and said coldly: "Didn't you hear what I said? Let her say it!"
Seeing Mingyu's resolute attitude, Xianyue couldn't say anything, so she could only wink at A Luo secretly to signal her not to talk nonsense. When A Luo saw the look in her eyes, he felt more and more sad, and said firmly: "Yes, you are
You have helped the master, but you have also doubted the master, and even harmed the master; Baixiu
As for the drawings, if the master had not been prepared for it and showed the embroidery drawings to the Queen Mother every day, and the Queen Mother discovered the problem, the master would have died in vain. If the queen wants to settle an account, may I ask where to start from?
After all, the master does not owe the empress, on the contrary, the empress owes the master."
Mingyu laughed angrily and said, "I owe her? Then tell me, what do I owe her?"
"The imperial concubine was once encouraged by the Su family to apply poison on the cat's claws in order to harm the second elder brother. If the master had not protected her, the second elder brother would have died long ago."
