In the pavilion of the palace, the queen sat there quietly, looking left and right. Everything around her was colorful in her eyes. She seemed to have forgotten how long it had been since she had been back.
Those dream-like lives made her a mess, but she still survived.
Turning her head, she saw a gleaming palace not far away. The queen's eyes suddenly narrowed. She knew where it was, Weiyang Palace.
The place where she once lived was deserted and calm, as if no one lived there. She felt that a certain place in her heart was being broken little by little, and she seemed to be able to hear the sounds of that place.
It had been many years since they had met like this. When Shen Zhongbai rushed to the door, he saw the queen sitting there, with an atmosphere of sadness surrounding her whole body.
In total, he has liked Gu Qiang for many years. During these years, he convinced himself that it was just a desire to possess women.
The fact that he has come to this day step by step is actually just to prove himself and prove that Gu Qiang was completely wrong in not marrying him. She may not admit it, but he does have the strength to be stronger than Shen Qianshan.
Of course, Shen Qianshan died early, otherwise he would not have sat on the throne of the emperor so easily. After all, it seems that he should be grateful to Shen Qianshan for his early death.
She seemed to have lost weight. The originally dry girl sat there, with traces of being washed away by the years. Although she was not as innocent as she once was, her agility was even more beautiful at this time.
Did he really fall
After Shen Zhongbai stood there for a long time, he slowly walked forward.
When the queen raised her eyes, she saw Shen Zhongbai standing among the layers of flowers, looking at her lovingly.
He didn't change. Everything before suddenly appeared in front of the queen, making her head hurt.
The queen stood up, as calm as a lake, and said in a very cold tone: "Long time no see."
Shen Zhongbai's heart was already beating hard, but now that he heard the Queen say this, his heart was about to beat loudly.
Even at that moment, he felt like he was about to cry. Facing Gu Qiang, he would always be the one whose weak point was caught.
"Yes, long time no see." Shen Zhongbai had never been so emotional before. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and calmed down his mood. He clearly told himself that he would not suffer like this again. Before that, he must get Gu Qiang. .
The queen was very calm, and this calmness was terrifying.
She had faced Gu Qiang like this more than once before, but this time, she took the initiative to come to him, which meant that she had already thought about a lot of things. In other words, she was pronouncing something this time.
Ridiculous, Shen Zhongbai is the emperor now, she pronounces the sentence? He can use the toughest attitude to let her know that everything in this country, including her, is under his control.
"The fact that you came to the door shows that you have already made up your mind, right? You might as well say it and I will consider it." Shen Zhongbai smiled. His facial skin had been tense for a long time and he needed to do some movements to make himself more comfortable. .
The queen was still calm. She pointed to the Weiyang Palace next to her and asked softly: "Who lives there?"
Shen Zhongbai was stunned for a moment, and then he felt a little embarrassed. This question seemed like a woman who liked him was vying for favor. Weiyang Palace has been the place where the queen lived since ancient times. Gu Qiang asked this question as if it was just a casual question. But actually she was asking who the queen was.
"If you want, you can live there." Shen Zhongbai pondered for a long time, but in the end he still didn't say it. She should know about the people living there now.
The queen sneered. The expression on her face made people feel terrible. She was obviously such a lovely woman, but now the haze on her body was scary.
The queen just smiled casually and said: "Shen Zhongbai, I just want to ask you, do you know what liking is? Or, you are just trying to get me, just like getting something you don't like, but someone else Do you have to have some?"
Shen Zhongbai didn't say anything. Everyone in the world knew what he was thinking about her. How could she not know
"You have nothing now. Your brother, Shen Qianshan, and the Gu family who don't want to see you. You must know clearly that only if you follow me can you live a good life." Shen Zhongbai has said this time This sentence has been said many times, but no one knows what it means.
Especially Gu Qiang, she probably feels that she still has many opportunities. After six years, if there is any chance, she can completely reverse the current situation, but she never has, that is to say, she has no chance.
Everyone was trying to persuade her, but she was the only one who stubbornly disagreed.
"Really? You may have forgotten that there is a saying that it is better to be in pieces than in ruins. If I really can't live anymore, I think I can still die." The queen said calmly.
Of course she knew that she could never do this, because if she really committed suicide, everything Gu Qiang did in the diary would be meaningless.
You can't give up hope of living just because the current situation is not good. This is unfair to everyone.
But her appearance today was to let Shen Zhongbai know that he was not as forced as they thought.
Shen Zhongbai was indeed a little nervous. According to what he knew about Gu Qiang, she was a woman of her own accord. If she wasn't sure about everything, she wouldn't come here rashly.
"You clearly know that you haven't reached that point yet." Shen Zhongbai still wanted to convince the queen.
"Then be good." The queen smiled immediately. Different from the previous sneer, this time she smiled so brightly, just like the smile she would give to her lover.
Shen Zhongbai had never seen her smiling at him like this before. He froze immediately, then without saying anything, he lowered his head and smiled too.
It seems that his desire to marry Gu Qiang home cannot be accomplished in a day or two. This is a long-term matter. He can wait. He has been waiting for so many years. Now she is only slightly moved. He thinks this is progress.
The queen walked past Shen Zhongbai, and he seemed to want to reach out to hold her back, but naturally knew that it was of no use, so he quietly felt the faint fragrance on her body, which still remained unchanged.
Walking forward on the winding road, the queen felt helpless like never before. No one was helping her. Even if the entire Gu family had power, they could not cover the sky with one hand. Prime Minister Gu only used power to protect himself. As long as It's good if you don't die.
But in fact, everyone knows that if all his chips disappear one by one, it will be like a big tree with all its branches dead. In the end, the big tree will not be able to escape the situation of drying up.
Gu Qiang and Gu Zhihua were both branches of Prime Minister Gu, but he didn't even notice.
In other words, Prime Minister Gu didn't want to use his ability to help Gu Qiang at all, or he was actually being controlled.
A dignified prime minister ended up in such an end. The corners of the queen's mouth raised. She never felt that her father did anything right. In other words, she no longer had any hope for the entire Gu family. She just I just hope that I can survive, and that it is enough that Shen Qianshan and Gu Huaian don't die.
There are flowers all around the path. In this season, only the chrysanthemums are still blooming tenaciously. The surrounding white, yellow and red flowers are very desolate.
Turning the corner, a woman walked up to her. The woman was wearing a yellow dress. Her outfit was very gaudy. The queen recognized that it was the dress of the queens of the past. Not everyone can wear that kind of dress. In the harem, Concubine, if someone wears that kind of clothes, he can be killed without saying a word.
When she raised her eyes to meet the woman's eyes, the queen was startled for a moment, and then her whole body couldn't help but tremble. The woman's face always appeared in her countless dreams. It was Shen Qiangwei's face.
She gritted her teeth and thought that she had seen this woman once or twice when she lived in the palace. If it weren't for her, her child would live happily in this world.
One life for another, Shen Qiangwei should have died long ago.
But the woman came up to meet her, raised her eyes and said to the queen with a smile: "Long time no see, Princess Luoping, I guess you have forgotten who I am, right?"
How could she forget that woman? In just a moment, she put her mind back together and said to Shen Qiangwei: "It seems like you are the queen now?"
Shen Qiangwei was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly, but she was still very happy in her heart.
Although Shen Zhongbai was not very good to her over the years, to Gu Zhihua, it was heaven and earth. She never thought that she would be able to sit in the position of the queen. But, she achieved it.
Shen Qiangwei's previous identity was known to everyone even if she tried to hide it.
It is true that she has never received a guest, and Shen Zhongbai is her first man, but her identity is something she cannot change no matter what.
No one cares about whether she has difficulties, and no one is willing to accept that a prostitute finally sat at the position of the highest woman in the country. Everyone will only remember her past misery.
But so what? Although she can't get all of Shen Zhongbai's love, Shen Zhongbai has tried his best. As a prostitute, she can get everything she has now, and she can wake up from her dreams with a smile.
"If the princess hadn't insisted on not obeying, the one who takes the position of queen now should be the princess, right?" The smile on Shen Qiangwei's face was very sincere, as if the queen's position could be given to her immediately.
