The night is still young, and the joy is still young.
In Weiyang Palace, in the light that shines like daytime, Ziyan is dressed in neon clothes and feathers, sings and dances alone with a phoenix, with a graceful figure and round dance steps, Ziyan raises her hand, throws her feet, frowns and smiles. For a while, he showed hospitality to Yan Li.
The person is as beautiful as a flower, and the music is perfect, just to win the smile of the king.
However, to Ziyan's dismay, Yan Li didn't seem to be interested at all.
His movements are dull, pouring, raising hands, throwing back his neck, drinking, putting down the glass, and repeating. She is preoccupied, and she is not focused on tonight's singing and dancing. The so-called happiness is just Zi Yan's wishful thinking.
His whole body was weak and boneless, sticking softly to Yan Li's body, his lips parted, his teeth parted, his delicate voice spewing orchids and jade, like the fragrance of flowers mixed with the evening breeze, shaking Yan Li's eardrums, Brushed over his tight, serious and cold face.
"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you? Could it be that the concubine can't dance or sing well?" Zi Yan knew very well that Yan Li's thoughts were on Rong Chang'an.
Yan Li twitched the corners of his mouth, showing a stiff smile, "You sing well, and you dance well."
As soon as I heard it, I knew it was against my will.
"Since the dance is good and the singing is wonderful, why is the emperor not happy at all? Are you lying to me?"
Yan Li's smile was fleeting, and he looked at Zi Yan with a serious gaze. He observed Zi Yan calmly for a while, "Tell me, Rong Changan scrubs the toilet, what's going on?"
Knowing that he was doing it for this matter, Zi Yan had already prepared a speech in her heart, "I am not worthy of being the emperor, and I am proud of Changan."
"Why are you angry with her?" Yan Li took another sip of wine sullenly, thinking of the image of Rong Changan cleaning the toilet in his mind, he felt uncomfortable.
To reduce a man's hostility, the best way is to be gentle, and a woman who knows how to be gentle will be beneficial everywhere. If Rong Changan also knew how to be gentle, then she would have been invincible long ago.
"Actually, I am very aware of the relationship between the emperor and Rong Changan. You two love each other to the bone. But Rong Changan regards the friendship between you as a bargaining chip and wants it in exchange for the queen's position. She clearly knows It's not your child in the belly, but you deliberately don't say it until you find out."
"Originally, according to the practice of previous dynasties, she was pregnant with the child of the previous emperor, and she was to be killed. The emperor did not pursue her crimes, which was already a great kindness. Give birth to a child! There is such a shameless woman in the world! She is using your feelings, you can tolerate it, but I can't. So, in a fit of anger, I asked her to wash the clothes and clean the toilet as a punishment."
As she said that, Zi Yan knelt on the ground, crying and crying: "Your Majesty, if you think I've done too much, punish me! I don't regret what I have done. Because my purpose is for the Emperor. There is no regret in dying!"
Zi Yan covered her face, she was full of snot and tears, very miserable.
Yan Li saw it and couldn't bear it, and said: "I know that Ziyan is for my own good, but you have gone too far. The relationship between Rong Chang'an and me is not just as simple as wife and husband, friend and friend, but also includes very many."
Ziyan was upset when she heard Yan Li's words, but she didn't show it on her face, she just pretended to be wronged, "Since the emperor values the relationship with the empress so much, then he will send me to the cold palace to clean the toilet and wash clothes Alright. In this way, you can give the queen an explanation."
Yan Li's cold eyes softened, he put his hand on Zi Yan's face, and wiped off a tear, "Since it's over, forget it. But from now on, don't ask about Rong Chang'an. Otherwise, I really want to punish you."
Zi Yan acted like a baby and put her face on Yan Li's chest: "Your Majesty, this concubine knows I'm wrong. Don't be angry, okay?"
Yan Li was a hero, he could scold the enemy angrily in front of the battle, he could scold the stupid officials in the court, but he couldn't hold back that kind of anger in the face of such a delicate cat-like woman.
"Okay, I won't blame you if I say I don't blame you, and don't worry too much about it."
Zi Yan said: "Since the emperor doesn't blame me anymore, do you still want to listen to my singing and dancing?"
Yan Li was not interested, "Forget about today. I am a little tired and want to go back to the bedroom to rest, so Ziyan should go back to Fengwu Palace to rest earlier!"
Before Zi Yan could speak, Yan Li coldly pushed her away, and went back to the bedroom with a few eunuchs.
Zi Yan looked at Yan Li's leaving back from behind, bit her lip in hatred, almost broke her lip, and anger burst out from her evil eyes.
"You care so much about Rong Chang'an, I'll let Rong Chang'an die! Let's go, let's go back to Fengwu Palace!"
In the night, Zi Yan and two maidservants were walking down the dim corridor, and she always felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at her from behind.
Who is it? Maybe she's just being sensitive
A trace of fear flashed across her peachy face, and after turning a corner, she stood still and asked the maid beside her softly, "Did you see someone following us?"
The two maidservants look at me and I look at you. From the expressions on their faces, it can be seen that they were surprised by Ziyan's words.
"Report, Concubine, we have never seen anyone following behind."
"Strange, is it my eyesight?"
Although the two maidservants denied that they saw someone following her, Ziyan was always uncomfortable, and wished she could go to Fengwu Palace in one step and hide under the blanket.
Arriving at the gate of Fengwu Palace, Zi Yan ordered the guards guarding the gate of the palace: "You guys watch out for me, and don't let any suspicious people into the palace!"
The guard replied: "You guys must guard the gate of the palace strictly, and don't even let flies fly in!"
Arriving in the palace, Zi Yan felt a little more at ease, and asked a maid to pour a bowl of tea to soothe her mind.
After a while, there was a crisp sound of the porcelain bowl falling on the ground outside the door, and at the same time, there was the scream of the servant girl.
"You are… "
Before he finished speaking, he heard a thud.
Zi Yan's whole body was cold, and she hugged another servant girl, not daring to breathe.
A hazy figure quickly slid past the window, and then there was a big man standing at the door, dressed in night clothes, wrapped in a mask, with eyes the size of copper bells, shooting out sharp eyes like knives.
Holding a big knife in his long and thick arm, the light of the knife was so cold that Zi Yan was horrified when he saw it.
"You... who are you?" Zi Yan's teeth chattered, her dilated pupils were full of horror.
The big man stretched out his index finger with his left hand, hooked the maidservant, and motioned her to go out, "It's none of your business here, you go out!"
After receiving the amnesty, the servant girl was elated and ran away.
A hideous flash of light flashed in the big man's eyes: "Do you know why I killed you today?"
Zi Yan shook her head: "Who are you?"
The big man sneered and said, "You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know why you died. I think all conscientious people in the world want you to die."
"What's the reason why you killed me?" Ziyan Gululu rolled his eyes, trying every means to escape.
The big man grinned again: "Because you are the most evil woman in Dajing Kingdom! Today I will dig out your heart and see if it is black or red."
