"This belongs to the queen," Zhong Mingwei said slowly, looking at He Chengzhi's froze face. Zhong Mingwei said again slowly, "You said that there are many wonderful things in this world, and I never imagined that the queen would have a Guanyin pendant exactly like your sister's."
He Chengzhi was speechless. He looked at the white jade Guanyin in his hand, and then at Zhong Mingwei's face like an ancient well without waves. Finally, his eyes fell on the white jade Guanyin. He turned and turned to look at it, the more he looked, the paler his face became, and the more he looked, the more frightened he became. Finally, he raised his head and asked with a look of panic and surprise: "Long live. Are the empresses really, are they from Ningguta? The subordinates remembered that the empress and... are the same age as the younger sister. And... and the last time In front of the imperial study room, the subordinates looked at Niangniang, and unexpectedly, she was somewhat similar to Niangqin. Long live Lord. Is this... is there actually a connection?"
He Chengzhi knew that after he asked this sentence. What would be the consequences, but he had to ask. Facing this white jade Avalokitesvara, I can vividly remember the scene of being separated from my younger sister fifteen years ago. The cry of the younger sister is right next to his ears, and this cry has tortured him all these years, so he can't live in peace, so today. Facing this white jade Guanyin, how could he resist asking
"The queen is undoubtedly from Ningguta," Zhong Mingwei said slowly. He looked at He Chengzhi's anxious face, and he didn't know how to say the words he had prepared. He took a deep breath. He finally calmed down, and then continued, "Chengzhi, you have to remember that your sister passed away fifteen years ago," Zhong Mingwei reached out and patted He Chengzhi gently as he spoke. The hand tightly holding the white jade Guanyin said in a deep voice, "Since this pendant is similar to the pendant you gave to your sister back then, then you should put it away and take it as a thought."
"Long Live Lord, you must know something, don't you?" As soon as He Chengzhi grasped Zhong Mingwei's hand, his bloodshot eyes stared at Zhong Mingwei without blinking. His chest heaved violently, and the words he spoke were, Every word was trembling, "My lady... Is she..."
"Tomorrow will be the queen conferment ceremony," Zhong Mingwei also looked at He Chengzhi, letting him squeeze his hand with such great strength, Zhong Mingwei said in a deep voice while looking into those bloodshot eyes, "Chengzhi, No matter what background the queen was in the past, and no matter how complicated her life experience was, her identity from now on can only be my queen," Zhong Mingwei paused, looking at He Chengzhi's dull face , couldn't help sighing, and said again, "Chengzhi, I will never allow anyone to turn over a page that took me fifteen years to turn over, do you understand?"
The hand that was firmly holding Zhong Mingwei suddenly lost its strength and slid down. He Chengzhi's whole body seemed to be paralyzed on the ground, his face was on the ground. Zhong Mingwei couldn't see his expression clearly, but he could feel him. He was crying, Zhong Mingwei couldn't bear to look any further, and was about to look away, when He Chengzhi sat up again, staring at Zhong Mingwei with tearful tiger eyes: "You promise that you will treat her well for the rest of your life?"
"I promise," Zhong Mingwei stood up while speaking, walked up to He Chengzhi, knelt down in front of him, kowtowed, and said solemnly word by word, "I, Zhong Mingwei, hold the head on my neck, I swear to you with the fate of the Great Zhou Kingdom, that I will do my best to protect and love the queen in this life, be loyal and sincere to her throughout my life, and have no concubines in the six palaces. It will fall into the hands of a different surname!"
After saying this, neither of them spoke any more, they just knelt facing each other, He Chengzhi looked at Zhong Mingwei, and Zhong Mingwei also looked at He Chengzhi, as if they both wanted to find some peace of mind from the other's eyes.
