After all, his mood was quite heavy and depressing. Li Shimin and Qin Mubai only chatted for a few words, but he still felt a little absent-minded. After a moment of silence, he said, "I want to see Gao Yang."
"The princess just went to bed. Your Majesty can go if you want." Qin Mubai said.
Li Shimin looked at Qin Mubai deeply and nodded: "Then I'll go."
"Your Majesty, please stay a moment. I have something to report." Qin Mubai said, "Princess Cai just said that she wants to see Concubine Yin."
Li Shimin hesitated for a moment, nodded and walked toward the hut without saying anything.
Qin Mubai looked at Li Shimin's background and tasted an extra sadness and desolation.
This man who commands world-wide authority also has the body and emotions of a mortal. God is fair. He has more women and children than ordinary people. This seems very happy, but he also bears several times more responsibilities and pressure than ordinary people.
A few hours later, Qin Mubai came to Concubine Yin De's palace to ask for an audience.
"Come in." There are not many people in the Xianju Palace, and it looks like a cold palace. Qin Mubai stood outside the door talking, while Concubine Yin De answered inside. There was not even a maid to deliver the message.
Qin Mubai pushed the door open and walked in, asking Shi Zhou to meet him.
"No need to be polite, sit down." Concubine Yin's voice sounded better than before, at least with some life. Qin Mubai sat down and raised his eyelids slightly to look at her, which was a little shocking.
It's really... my hair is all white!
Her face is clearly still very young, and she is still so beautiful, dignified, and luxurious, but the faint blue hair of the past has all been replaced by bright silver white hair!
Is it really... morning is like blue silk and evening is snow? !
"Are you surprised?" Concubine Yin said calmly and indifferently.
"Yes." Qin Mubai admitted without denying it.
"I didn't expect that I would grow old overnight." Although Concubine Yin tried her best to cheer up, her voice was always full of exhaustion and vicissitudes that could not be concealed.
"Your Majesty, this humble minister deserves to die!!" Qin Mubai stood up and bowed with his hands in front of him.
"It's none of your business, what's your crime? Sit down." Concubine Yin raised her hands lightly, with a kind and gentle smile on her face, and said softly.
"Thank you for your magnanimity!" Qin Mubai sat down again.
silence.
For a moment, neither of them knew what to say.
It was the middle of winter, and there were no windows or fire in the room, and the air was filled with a bone-chilling chill. In the large, empty palace, only a flying crane bronze lamp is lit above the head. The big lanterns swayed gently, making the two figures stagger, and their expressions were a little unclear.
"Ling'er loves you, I love you to the core." Suddenly, Concubine Yin spoke.
Qin Mubai was startled for a moment and nodded: "Wei Chen knows."
"She is crazy. She doesn't even recognize her father and mother, but she only recognizes you." Concubine Yin said again.
"Wei Chen saw it."
"You..." Concubine Yin prolonged the note, as if hesitating, and finally said, "Do you dislike her?"
"No." Qin Mubai said firmly.
"Then I will entrust Ling'er... to you." After Concubine Yin finished speaking, she suddenly turned her head, covered her mouth, and walked quickly towards the inner room.
"Empress!" Qin Mubai was startled and hurriedly stood up to call her, but Concubine Yin walked very fast. In the dark palace, her figure quickly disappeared.
"The princess wants to see you! She remembered you!—"
Qin Mubai's voice echoed in the empty palace, but no one responded.
Behind it is Concubine Yin De's bedroom, and Qin Mubai, a foreign minister, would not dare to enter. After standing there and waiting for a while, Concubine Yin De came out again. She cupped her hands and said goodbye before walking out.
As soon as he walked out of the palace threshold, Qin Mubai was shocked. He suddenly turned around and rushed into Concubine Yin's bedroom like a cheetah!
"sky!… "
Fortunately, I found it when I came back!
Concubine Yin... actually committed suicide by hanging from a beam in her own bedroom!
Qin Mubai stepped on the table and flew up. At the same time, the sword in his waist was already unsheathed. With a "chila" sound, he cut off the hanging Bai Ling. Concubine Yin's body fell down. Qin Mubai held her waist with one hand and landed on the ground at the same time. , pillowing her on his lap.
"Fortunately, there is help!"
Looking at Concubine Yin's extremely beautiful, noble and honorable face that made people dare not feel guilty or offended, Qin Mubai's heart skipped a beat: "I can't control that much anymore!"
He stretched out his hand and pressed her chin to make her open a little, and then Qin Mubai kissed Concubine Yin on the mouth!
At the same time, he pinched her nose with his other hand and gave her artificial respiration!
After several times, Qin Mubai checked her pulse and heartbeat, but it was still weak.
So he took off her thick mink fur and looked at her plump and erect breasts. Qin Mubai pressed down with his palm without hesitation, pressing up and down rhythmically to help her heart resume beating.
for a long time.
On a cold day, Qin Mubai was so busy that he was sweating profusely.
Concubine Yin finally woke up leisurely.
Qin Mubai gasped and finally smiled.
"Okay, it's okay!"
Concubine Yin looked up at the hazy man in front of her and murmured as if talking in her sleep: "Why do you want to save me? Why don't you give me a relief?"
"Empress, as long as people are still here, everything can be solved. There are no obstacles that cannot be overcome, and there are no problems that cannot be solved. Why are you doing this?" Qin Mubai helped her sit up slowly and said softly, "Princess now Her condition has not improved. If she gets better but finds that she has lost you... what kind of situation will it be like? "
Concubine Yin's face was ashen, her eyes were dull as she looked ahead, and murmured: "Ling'er is my only care and support. Now that she has you, I can rest assured. Over the years, if not Because there is still Ling'er who makes me worry, I have already turned into dust, why should I remain in this dark world and endure endless pain and torture?"
"Empress, please be more open-minded. Everything will turn around. The princess has fallen into that situation and can still get better like she came back from the dead. Your situation will definitely get better too." Qin Mubai could only use all his strength The narrator came to persuade her, "You are so dignified, noble, gentle and courteous. You are looked up to and respected by the world, and your reputation is not inferior to that of the late Empress Changsun. If you hang yourself now, wouldn't you ruin your reputation for the rest of your life?" , It will also make His Majesty the Emperor humiliated and heartbroken!"
"Ho ho...!" Concubine Yin suddenly laughed several times with great sadness, and then said quietly softly, "Why is he so humiliated and so sad?"
Qin Mubai could only remain silent. He knew that Concubine Yin's short sentence contained too many meanings. This may also involve the feud between the Li and Yin families from the pre-Sui Dynasty, as well as the confusing relationship between him and Li Shimin... It is better not to break the casserole and get to the bottom of such a complicated royal family matter.
"Help me up." Concubine Yin seemed to have regained some consciousness and stopped talking. She let Qin Mubai help her get up and sit on her couch.
"Go away, this is not the place you should be." Concubine Yin lowered her head and said calmly.
"Then... can your Majesty promise not to commit suicide again?" Qin Mubai said.
"Don't worry." Concubine Yin nodded, "I'm so tired, I want to rest."
"Wei Chen, please leave." It was extremely inappropriate to stay in the bedroom of the concubines for a long time, so Qin Mubai had no choice but to retreat. After closing the door, he was worried that she would commit suicide again, so he stood outside her room and listened for a long time.
Concubine Yin just sat alone on the bed, silent for a long time. Inadvertently, she reached out and wiped her lips, frowned and said to herself: "Why does it smell like fish? Why is this Diao Jin palace robe untied?..."
Qin Mubai outside the door had a stiff expression: Didn't I just eat fish with Gao Yang? …
I really want to rush in and explain it to her!
I just heard Concubine Yin inside saying to herself: "That's all, if you're not afraid of death, why should you be afraid of anything else?"
Qin Mubai shook his head and smiled bitterly outside: I didn't do anything to you, Yin Concubine! Could it be that you think I'm just trying to save someone's life... just to eat you up
Concubine Yin finally lay down. Qin Mubai waited outside for a long time and saw that she was indeed sleeping soundly. Then he walked out and called two palace maids, telling them to go to Concubine Yin's palace and wait on her at all times.
Then he left with peace of mind.
At this moment, in Princess Gaoyang's room.
Gao Yang was like a wounded deer, curling up in the bed and sleeping very deeply. There was a warm and satisfied smile on the little face that had regained some color, as if she was dreaming of some sweet dream.
Li Shimin sat quietly beside her bed, staring at her blankly for a long time, with a smile on his face.
It's like a loving and warm smile, but also like a bitter and helpless smile.
Seeing Gao Yang sleeping soundly, Li Shimin really didn't want to wake her up from her dream, but he couldn't help it and wanted to pinch her little balls just like when she was naughty.
Just when a big hand gently touched Princess Gaoyang's face, she suddenly woke up, opened her eyes suddenly, sat up, grabbed the quilt and wrapped it around her body, and shrank to the corner of the bed: "You, you... devil, devil ! Don’t come here, wow—don’t come here!”
"Gao Yang, Ling'er!" Li Shimin spread his arms and opened his chest, and said softly, "Look carefully, it's my father... I'm your father!"
"No, you are not! You are a devil, you want to kill me! Get out, get away! Wow, wow, wow, get out of here!!!"
Princess Gaoyang is hysterical!
He picked up everything he could, including clothes and pillows, and threw them at Li Shimin like an old man!
"Gao Yang, calm down." Li Shimin dodged and shouted in distress and heartache, almost begging her.
"I don't care! I want you to go! Get out! Get away, stay away from me! Wuwu..." Princess Gaoyang burst into tears, "Mubai, come and save me, where are you... Come and save me me!!!"
Li Shimin was stunned, standing frozen on the spot as if he was petrified.
"Ling'er, do you really deny your father?"
"You are not! You are not my father! My father loves me the most and loves me the most, but you only want to beat me, scold me and kill me! You are the devil! You are the devil who turned into my father to harm me! Get away—Mu Bai! Where are you? Come and save me!"
…
Qin Mubai had already reached the side of the Huanyi side hall and heard Princess Gaoyang's hysterical shouting from a distance. He knew very well that she suddenly woke up and found the emperor beside her, and she was having a big conflict with him.
But at this time, how can I get in easily
Not only that, Qin Mubai also secretly dismissed everyone in the Huanyi side hall and drove them away.
After a long time, Li Shimin walked out of the hut with heavy steps and slowly closed the door.
The moment the wooden door closed, under Li Shimin's deeply furrowed brow, a pair of sad, helpless and sad eyes met Princess Gaoyang's frightened, fearful and hateful eyes.
The door closed and Li Shimin closed his eyes.
Facing the closed door, he stood for a long time. He raised his hands as if he was about to push the door and then close it, trembling slightly.
Qin Mubai stood far away and did not go over.
After a long time, Li Shimin turned around and walked towards the small courtyard. Qin Mubai waited by the roadside and bowed with his hands in hand.
Li Shimin walked to him, his face returned to a calm expression, he nodded and smiled slightly: "I ask you to take good care of Gao Yang."
Then, with his hands cut behind his back, he strode away.
Qin Mubai couldn't help but feel shocked - take good... care of him
What does this mean? !
