Seeing that Xianyue didn't speak for a long time, Hongli said in a cold voice: "What, do you have nothing to say?"
Xianyue shook her head and said: "Yes, I kept it from Xia Qing, but everything I did was for Xia Qing's good. I don't want her to get stuck deeper and deeper on the wrong path, and be unable to extricate herself in the end!"
Hongli nodded with a livid face and said: "I have lived for more than thirty years, but only now do I realize that liking me is a bad thing and a wrong path."
His words shocked Xianyue and said in astonishment: "She...she said she likes the emperor?"
Hongli ignored her words and said directly: "It seems that in the eyes of the imperial concubine, the entire harem is a mistake. So many people in the palace are taking the wrong path, right?!"
Xianyue said in a panic: "No, I don't mean that, Xia Qing..."
"That's enough!" Hong Li interrupted her angrily, shook his head and said, "I don't want to hear you say any more, not a word you say!"
Seeing this, Zhichun said eagerly: "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. Xia Qing does not like the Emperor at all. What she said is just..."
"Shut up!" Hongli growled, walked up to Xianyue, and said word by word: "Nala Xianyue, since you regard it as a bad thing and a wrong way, that is to say, you have never liked it.
Have you ever crossed me? Never?"
Facing his questioning gaze, Xianyue felt heartache. Hongli could doubt anything about her, but he couldn't doubt her feelings. If she was ruthless, how could she stay with him willingly for nearly twenty years; if not,
Love, how could she sacrifice her life to save him?
She endured the pain in her chest and gritted her teeth and said, "Doesn't the emperor understand at all what my concubine thinks of the emperor?"
Hongli said slowly: "I always thought I understood it very well, but it turns out I'm not. Just like I never understood what kind of person you are, maybe..." He gritted his teeth and said in a cold voice: "It's true.
, or maybe it’s just hypocrisy.”
The human heart is really a very strange thing. Sometimes what we see is obviously real, but we think it is fake; sometimes what we see is false, but we think it is real. What is true and what is false is like looking at the moon in the water and looking in the mirror.
Look at the flowers.
Hearing Hongli's words, Xianyue's eyes turned black and she could hardly stand. Aluo quickly stepped forward to support her, "Master, be careful."
After the dizzy feeling subsided, Xianyue said in pain: "It turns out that the nearly twenty years of companionship are just false love in the eyes of the emperor. So who is real, Xia Qing? Why, why do you believe it?
Is it always someone else? I was the queen before, but now I am Xia Qing. Is this concubine so untrustworthy in your heart?"
Hongli's eyes turned cold and he said: "For no reason, why did you mention the queen?"
Xianyue did not retreat from his gaze, and sneered: "You don't want to mention the queen because you believed in her so much, but you found out that you trusted the wrong person and was deceived by the queen again and again. Even if the queen is gone, this
This matter is still a stain on you."
Hongli's face was gloomy and he said: "You are not qualified to mention the queen!" As soon as he said the words, Hongli regretted a little. This sentence was really too heavy for Xianyue, but he had said it and regretted it!
The words "not qualified" were like a sharp arrow, stabbing into Xianyue's chest, and it kept turning, making the heart under the skin drip with blood.
Xianyue held back the tears that were about to fall and said with choked sobs: "Yes, I am not qualified. In the eyes of the emperor, I have always been an unqualified person; Concubine Xian, Imperial Concubine, Imperial Concubine, all of these are just rewards.
Or compensation, in your heart, there is no existence of my concubine at all, and there is no half trust.
These words are all words of coaxing, but I am so stupid that I actually took them seriously, thinking that after the rain the sky has cleared up, that you really believe in me. Haha, you are so stupid..." She waved away A Luo's hand.
, staggering back, said sadly: "As far as the Emperor is concerned, are the Queen, Concubine Yu and even Wei Jingxuan and Xia Qing more trustworthy than the concubines?"
Hong Li said in a cold voice: "Have I ever said such words? Don't talk nonsense."
"Nonsense..." Xianyue said with a sad smile: "I hope that what I am saying at this moment is all nonsense, so..." She pointed hard at her chest and gritted her teeth: "It won't be like that here.
pain!"
"If you are not hypocritical, why did you deceive me? Why have you refused to answer my questions directly? Na La Xianyue, tell me?!"
"Deception..." Xianyue laughed again and said sadly: "Can you really tell what is deception and what is truth?" Before Hongli could answer, she shook her head and said: "No, you can't tell.
Otherwise you would never ask me those questions."
The sadness in her eyes made Hong Li feel pain in his heart. He looked away and said, "Since you think I can't tell the difference, tell me what the truth is."
Xianyue slowly shook her head and said: "Will you believe what I say? No, you have confirmed what Xia Qing said, and you have determined that I cannot tolerate Xia Qing. No matter what I say, you will only listen to it as a lie.
If that's the case, why waste any more time on it?"
Before Hongli said anything, Qi Kuan said anxiously: "No, the emperor will believe it. Master, please tell me the truth. Xia Qing is the one who told the big lie. She..."
"Shut up!" Xianyue interrupted Qi Kuan sharply. In this situation, the more she spoke, the less dignified she would feel. Yes, she never told the truth to Hongli, but she told a lie, but
After nearly twenty years of relationship, can’t we get a trace of trust?
Xianyue's frustration, in Hongli's eyes, turned into a guilty conscience after the lie was exposed. She said heartbrokenly: "Obviously it was you who deceived me and you couldn't tolerate Xia Qing, but now you say it as if it was me.
It's the same mistake, Nala Xianyue, I have always known that you are scheming and have excellent methods, even men are inferior to them, but I never thought that you would always use scheming methods to deal with me!"
"Scheming? Means?" Xianyue suddenly laughed sharply and said sarcastically: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten where this place is? This is the Forbidden City and the harem. Without scheming and means,
, what can I do to protect my life?
!As for Xia Qing..." She took a step forward, stared at Hongli and said: "If I tell the emperor that I really can't tolerate her, what will the emperor do with me? Is he going to abolish me as a concubine, a concubine?
Or should we simply dethrone him as a commoner and resign him to the cold palace?"
Hongli looked complicated and said: "So, you admit it?"
A Luo was so anxious that she stamped her feet. She knew that her master was suspected by the emperor and felt uncomfortable, but she could not admit such an unfounded thing. What if the emperor was really determined to depose his master?
Xianyue gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, I admit it. Is the emperor satisfied?"
