In the past in General Yuchi's Mansion, the two of them not only lived in the same room, but also liked to squeeze into the same bed in the winter. Because Jin Ye was a good sleeper, he always slept outside, no matter how strange Yinye was sleeping inside.
Well, she can sleep firmly on the edge of the bed without falling.
Jin Ye vaguely understood what was going on and said sheepishly, "Maybe it's because I was dreaming that I made you laugh."
Zhenliang smiled and said, "What kind of dream did you have? Are you being chased and can you actually fall to the ground?"
Jinye didn't know whether his cheeks turned red because of what Zhenliang said, or because he looked shy because he thought about the content of the dream. He replied shyly, "I'm not chasing you. I don't know what happened recently. I often have weird dreams, cough cough."
Looking at Jinye's shy and embarrassed expression, both Zhenliang and Yinye silently thought that Jinye must be having a dream.
After confirming that there was no pain or abnormality on Jin Ye's body, Ma Ryo and Gin Ye left her house together.
After Zhenliang's figure disappeared in the courtyard, and when Yinye's door was closed by her, Jinye closed his eyes blankly.
The candle brought by Yin Ye is still burning on the table and will burn out soon.
When the light of the candle became weaker and weaker, the golden leaf fell asleep again, and suddenly there was a rustling movement under the tablecloth where the candle was placed.
The next morning, after breakfast, Zhenliang asked Jinye to prepare some gifts, and then took Yinye to Kunning Palace.
When the two arrived, the queen's personal maid from the Great Lotus Kingdom said that the queen had not gotten up yet. Zhenliang and Ginye looked at each other knowingly, then smiled and said that there was no need to wake the queen, and they were willing to wait until the queen came.
wake up.
The queen's maid was so moved by Zhenliang's friendly attitude that she secretly went to the queen's palace several times and finally woke up the queen from her deep sleep.
About an hour later, the queen walked into the main hall in shame with her head lowered and supported by the maid. Although she had only washed her face and had no makeup on her face, her eyes were bright and her posture was charming. She was completely different from the one she met yesterday.
Two people.
Zhenliang's ears couldn't help but turn red when she thought of the overwhelming sounds she heard last night, especially the Queen's bold request. It seems that a mature woman, nourished by a man, can indeed nourish her face, stay young and charming forever.
.
The two chatted casually and naturally for a while. Since the queen had not had breakfast yet, Zhenliang ate some snacks with her.
Then, the queen invited Zhenliang to go to the lotus pond in Kunning Palace to appreciate the beauty of the remaining lotuses.
The main hall is not far from the lotus pond, but as Zhenliang walked, he found that the queen's steps often lagged behind his own.
Yinye secretly tugged on Zhenliang's sleeves and used his eyes to signal her to walk slower and pay attention to etiquette. Zhenliang had no choice but to slow down. She was really puzzled. She had never seen the queen walking. For example, yesterday, the queen
Walking is not as slow as a snail.
Ginye next to her had a mysterious and weird smile on her face, and Zhenliang cast a questioning look at her. Yinye winked at Zhenliang playfully, then stretched out his two index fingers and touched each other.
Zhenliang stared blankly at half a rate of actions such as hitting, and finally understood what Silver Leaf meant.
The queen walks so slowly, is it not intentional, but because she was "bullied" so badly by the queen last night?
Zhenliang was glad that she asked Yinye with her eyes. Otherwise, she would have almost asked the emperor directly: Queen, are your legs injured? Why are you walking so strangely?
With great difficulty, everyone reached the lotus pond. When they saw some round gravel on the ground, they picked up some and threw them into the lotus pond to play with.
The queen admired Zhenliang's childish nature very much, and she couldn't help but have a desire to play, and they competed with her and threw stones.
When the two were having a great time throwing, Zhenliang first glanced at Ginye, and then, as if because he used too much force on his hands, his feet slipped and he was about to fall down.
When Zhenliang looked towards her, Ginye quietly distanced herself from her in a tacit understanding, so that when Zhenliang was about to fall, she had no time to run up and help her.
Therefore, there was no difference with the design. When Zhenliang fell down, the jade pendant hidden in the cuffs seemed to slide out naturally.
The jade pendant slipped right to the queen's feet. Zhenliang pretended to get up with difficulty and limped towards the queen's feet, seeming to be nervous about the fallen jade pendant.
"Concubine Liang, are you okay?" The frightened queen saw Zhenliang staring at her feet with a concerned and anxious look, so she followed her eyes.
The moment she saw the jade pendant, the queen's beautiful eyes widened, her crimson face began to turn from red to white, and she said in disbelief, "This...this..."
Zhenliang didn't seem to notice the Queen's abnormality. He could pick up the jade pendant from the ground quickly, but he deliberately took it a few steps slowly.
So, the queen picked up the jade pendant one step ahead of Zhenliang.
Zhenliang and Yinye glanced at each other secretly, and they were very excited in each other's hearts. It seemed that their expectations were right. The Queen was indeed related to this jade pendant.
Raising an eyebrow at Yinye, Zhenliang stood firm, stretched out his hand towards the queen, and said as if he was eager to take back the jade pendant, "Thank you, queen."
Zhenliang clamped one end of the jade pendant with two fingers, but the queen clamped one end of the jade pendant with four fingers of both hands, and used great force. If Zhenliang didn't use strong force, she wouldn't be able to get it back.
.
"Queen, what's wrong with you?" Zhenliang asked, pretending to be confused, reminding the queen of her gaffe and abnormality.
After being reminded, the queen finally came to her senses. Although she was extremely embarrassed, she still reluctantly let go of her hand holding the jade pendant. She looked at Zhenliang in shock and asked, "Where did this jade pendant come from, Concubine Liang?"
Zhenliang did not answer but asked, "Why is the Queen so excited? Could it be that she knows the owner of this jade pendant?"
"Master..." The queen looked at the jade pendant and muttered two words. In an instant, her beautiful eyes were filled with crystal tears.
Without further speaking, the queen stopped her words alertly, and first backed away the several maids behind her.
Seeing this, Zhenliang also turned away the silver leaves with his eyes,
Although Yinye wanted to hear immediately about the whereabouts of the owner of the jade pendant, at the critical moment, she understood her identity and believed that Zhenliang would definitely ask everything she could. Therefore, she resisted the urge to stay.
, retreat silently, and choose to focus on the overall situation.
When only the Queen and Zhenliang were left by the lotus pond, the tears that had been shining in the Queen's beautiful eyes for a long time fell down, wetting her entire pretty face, revealing a desolate look.
Zhenliang vaguely realized something, looked back at Yinye who was full of expectations, and suddenly did not dare to ask any more.
The queen wiped the tears from her face, tried her best to suppress the urge to continue crying, and asked, "Concubine Liang has not yet answered me, where did this jade pendant come from."
Zhenliang took the initiative to put the jade pendant into the queen's hand and let her take a closer look. She smiled and said, "Four years ago, Zhenqi picked it up from nowhere. I liked it, so I kept it with me."
The queen trembled with her hands, looked at the jade pendant in her hand with great nostalgia and cherishment, gently rubbed the surface of the jade pendant with her fingers, and said half-heartedly, "To tell you the truth, this jade pendant in your hand belongs to me.
It belongs to the late brother of the prince."
The late brother of the prince?
Such a result was both within Zhenliang's expectations and beyond Zhenliang's expectations. When the queen shed tears of sadness, Zhenliang made the worst plan. For example, the man with the jade pendant was the queen's old lover and had already died.
Married, disabled, or missing, he never imagined that his fate would be death.
Zhenliang was very glad that Silver Leaf couldn't hear her at the moment. Otherwise, she couldn't guarantee whether Silver Leaf, who seemed strong but was actually fragile, would faint on the spot.
The queen continued to caress the jade pendant in her hand and said, "My father is the emperor of the Great Lotus Kingdom. He has seven children. Each of his children has such a jade pendant in his hand. Except for the pattern in the center, each jade pendant is different.
The place is almost exactly the same. When my father taught us the jade pendant, he said that he accidentally got these seven jade pendants from a mysterious figure. The mysterious figure said that these seven jade pendants contain the secret of the treasure. If he could
If you crack it, you can get a huge treasure that is as rich as ten countries."
"My father said that he had been studying these seven jade pendants for more than twenty years, but in the end he found nothing, so he began to wonder if the mysterious figure was joking with him. However, one thing is absolutely true, and that is
Those who own each piece of jade pendant can use it to extend their lives and have a safe life. My father told us to keep it well and never give it away or lose it."
"We brothers and sisters have kept our father's instructions in mind and regard the jade pendant not only as a family heirloom, but also as a great favor from our father to our children. Four years ago, the prince's brother shamefully reported to his father that he accidentally lost it.
After losing the jade pendant, his father was furious and sent people to search everywhere. The father was afraid that the loss of the jade pendant was an ominous sign, but the prince brother did not take it seriously. But just two years ago, the prince brother was shot to death by an assassin with a poisonous arrow and never woke up.
"
When the queen said this, her crystal tears fell in clusters. After wiping them away hastily, the queen continued, "I never thought that one day, I would be able to see the prince's brother's jade pendant. This is really a blessing from God. Concubine Liang, I
I would like to take the liberty to ask if you can give me the jade pendant in your hand? I can give you other priceless jade pendants, okay?"
"This..." Zhenliang looked at Yinye who was blushing in the distance, and did not dare to make decisions for Yinye easily.
Yinye is really pitiful. His background was pitiful, his experiences were even more pitiful, and now he is so pitiful even if he falls in love with someone.
She would never believe that the man who haunted her dreams was actually dead.
However, although the man is dead, Yinye has been attached to her for so many years, and the jade pendant has become an inseparable part of her life. Even if it is reasonable and reasonable to return the jade pendant to the queen, how can Yinye bear it once it is lost?
How cruel would it be for a man who wanted to wait all his life to no longer be able to wait, and to lose the only token associated with him, and everything turned into ashes?
