Views:

After dressing up for Qingli, someone went to inform Mo Mirage. Qingli looked at himself in the mirror and said: "The face is still that face, but I always feel that it is not me."

Lian Ye squeezed her shoulders and said: "The lady has not changed, she has become a thing and a person. The servant still hopes that the lady can take care of her body. The servant will feel distressed when she sees it, and he will also feel sad."

Qingli heard that Lian Ye was talking about Yu Chen, yes, he couldn't bear the appearance of himself now in the sky. She nodded, "Thank you, Ah Ye."

There was a sound outside the house, Song Lan looked at it and said: "It's the prince who is here with the princess, and the girl is ready to get up."

Qingli raised her hand, and Lianye helped her walk out. Mo Mirage looked at the people coming out of the house, beautiful and indispensable, such a pure and clean appearance, but full of cold eyes, he went forward and led him. After passing her hand, Qing Li wanted to withdraw it.

However, he grasped so hard that he couldn't help it for a while, so he had to follow his footsteps. Xiangning was looking at herself with a smile at this time. She is dressed very gracefully and luxuriously today. With her temperament, a woman from a prominent family in the people's family is indeed style.

She came up to see Qingli, "My younger sister is very simple and elegant today, but she looks very good. It's no wonder the prince likes it."

Qing Li frowned, and did not reply, but Song Lan hurriedly said: "The princess has a good reputation, you are also very beautiful today, but I can't help but look at it more."

Xiangning was naturally happy when she heard these words, "The girl who waits by her side is a coincidence."

Mo Mirage squeezed Qingli's hand and said, "You can enter the palace, Xiangning, take a sedan chair, and this king will be with Qingli."

She couldn't help stiffening, but she smiled again after only a moment, "Yes, the concubine knows it." Qingli said softly, "Can't I go by myself..."

Mo Xiang leaned close to her ear, "Don't even think about it."

But from Xiangning's point of view, it was intimacy.

The sedan chair in front of him was gorgeous and luxurious, and eight people at the front and back carried it together. It was really a prince, and the battle drew people's attention. Mo Wei picked her up and sat in the sedan chair, but Qing Li whispered and waited. After the sedan chair, Mo Mirage closed the curtain and said, "Get up."

After a slight shaking, she moved forward steadily. Qing Li was still sitting on Mo Mirage's lap. She was constantly moving. Mo Mirage frowned, "If you move this king, I will throw you down!"

Qingli had to sit down obediently, and she didn't speak along the way, perhaps because she didn't want to have any extra language with him, and Mo Mirage didn't care.

After a short while, I entered the palace, and the sedan chair went all the way to the Qianyang Temple. It was noon. The emperor had told Mo Mirage to have lunch with him today, and stay until the evening banquet. After entering the hall, Mo Mirage released Qing Li's hand.

Xiangning walked slowly on his left side, Qingli only followed behind, Songlan Tonglianye walked beside her, the emperor sat on the main seat, and Mo Mirage slowly bowed down, "I have seen you Father." Xiangning also bowed down immediately, "Daughter-in-law Xiangning has seen the father, and I wish my father a good life and prosperity." There was a crowd behind him.

Ren Yingying bowed down, and Qing Li had to kneel with the attendants. The emperor said in a majestic and slightly old voice: "The mirage gets up quickly, and the princess also gets up. I haven't seen you two for many days."

Seeing the two get up, a group of attendants, including Qing Li, also got up, waiting quietly on both sides.

Mo Xiao smiled and said, "Isn't your son coming into the palace? Is the father and king's body okay? Can the imperial doctor take care of it?"

The emperor ordered someone to place a seat for him and said with a smile: "My body is like this, it's not good or not, after all, it's too old."

Fu looked at Xiangning again, "The princess has been married to the palace for many years, so why haven't you been happy?" The tone was slightly blaming, and Mo Wei stroked her hand, "Father, don't blame Xiangning, yeah. The ministers are busy with her affairs, and they don't care about her."

Xiangning was grateful for his words, and the emperor said again: "Well, this is something I can't ask for, although I really want to hug my grandson, haha."

The three had a good time. After a while, the lunch was ready. The three of them sat in and ate while talking, and Qing Li went down with them. It was good, it saved a lot of trouble.

People who come to the palace are not qualified to eat the food in this palace. They can only wait until the dinner is over and return to the palace to eat. Lian Ye Songlan brought Qingli to the lotus pond in the side hall to watch. The palace is luxurious. , This fence is actually inlaid with golden threads for embellishment.

Qingli sighed, but Songlan thought she was sad, "Girl, you can't blame the prince, he has his own problems."

Lian Ye patted Song Lan and said, "Sister Lan will be wrong. The young lady doesn't care about those, I'm afraid she sighed because of the beautiful scenery in front of her."

Qingli stroked the golden thread, "A Ye, why are there so many people in this world who like gold and jade things?"

Lian Ye snorted softly: "It's just a layman, the young lady shouldn't mind."

Accompanied by the two of them, Qing Li also wandered around in this palace. The palace was so big that he couldn't find the way back for a while, so he had to wait quietly at the Imperial Garden, Song Lan anxiously said: "Girl, let's go back quickly, it's almost time for the banquet."

Qingli didn't care, but said lightly: "No matter, it's okay to get lost like this, I don't want to go anyway.

"Qingli, you have the ability to say it again!"

Turning his head, he saw that it was Mo Mirage who rushed with Xiangning, and there were a lot of people in court attire behind him. It must have been a lot of effort to find himself. Qing Li slowly said, "I don't know the road, and you can't blame me."

Mo Mirage came forward and grabbed her hand. "If you dare to run away, let's go and see!" Xiangning went all the way with Mo Mirage looking everywhere, but at this time the two in front of him deeply hurt him. heart.

On the Yulian Terrace, there was a joyous singing and dancing elephant. Mo Mirage had also entered the table. Qing Li sat beside him, and Xiang Ning sat on the other side. The seats were all important officials of the court, relatives of the emperor and the country. The big Yulian Terrace is full.

Quite impressive, the small golden jade table in front of him was covered with a dazzling array of exquisite food. Qingli's stomach was already hungry. Mo Mirage reached out and put a piece of Ningxiang cake to her mouth. Although Qingli was embarrassed, he still ate. Go down.

I felt better in my abdomen. The singing and dancing slowly stopped. It was the emperor who wanted to speak and said loudly: "Today's banquet is for the mirage. I want to thank him for the people. It is the mirage. Killing the leader of the Yujiao who has already done a lot of evil in the arena in one fell swoop has also eliminated the great troubles of the dynasty. It is a model for the court!"

When the voice fell, Mo Mirage got up and bowed down. Everyone hurriedly raised their glasses and congratulated in unison: "Mo Mirage is heroic!"

Qingli's complexion was pale, her hands could not help being held tightly, her long nails had been poked into her palms, as if blood was slowly flowing down, she could not feel the pain, because her heart was dripping with blood at this time. How can I just watch Achen being slandered and insulted by these people.

And Mo Mirage, with a proud smile on the corner of her mouth, gave her the desire to die immediately. Mo Mirage turned his head to pull up Qingli, and smiled towards the emperor: "There is still a happy event for your son."

The emperor was very interested, "Oh? Let's have a listen."

Mo Xiang said in a loud voice: "That is to marry Qingli girl as a side concubine. There have been only a few people in the mansion for many years. As a princess, Xiangning can't do everything. Qingli is a gentle and virtuous person. The side concubine is also a blessing to the sons and ministers. In the future, the attached high school can also help the princess."

Xiang Ning was sad, with tears in her eyes, but she could not let it fall, she still showed a smile on her face, Qingli couldn't help crying from the corners of her eyes, and said: "Mo Mirage, you are so cruel."

The voice was very small, but Mo Mirage could already hear it clearly. The emperor smiled and said, "If you like Mirage, I will send someone to plan it carefully, so as to add to the joy of your mansion."

Mo Mirage moved his hand to Qingli's back, forcing her to give a salute, "Thank you Father!"

The emperor waved his hand and ordered the song to continue. Yulian Terrace was filled with joy.

After the banquet, Xiangning got up and walked in front of Mo Mirage, put on a mink velvet and ink-line cloak for him, and said softly: "Master, the night is late, the concubine brought this cloak for fear that the prince might catch the cold."

Seeing how little she was wearing, Mo Mirage took down the cloak and put it on Xiangning, "It doesn't matter to me, the princess should pay more attention to her body."

Moved, Xiangning walked with him all the way to the palace gate. Qingli followed behind him silently. The sedan chair had already been waiting, but this time Qingli was riding with Lianye Songlan, and Mo Mirage was riding with Xiangning.

Lian Ye squeezed Qing Li's hand in the sedan chair, and sighed, "What does he mean, is it possible to want to imprison Miss for a lifetime?"

Song Lan didn't know why, and said, "Isn't it a good thing for the prince to marry a girl as a side concubine? It's better than being so nameless."

Lian Ye wanted to argue with her, but Qing Li stopped it aloud: "Don't quarrel, let me be quiet."

The two stopped talking. The night is cold, perhaps because it rained a lot these days, Qingli remembered that she had been soaked in the rain before, and Achen was always helping her to block her. Thousands of miserable members

Qingli returned to the room, Lianye was about to serve her to sleep, but Song Lan came in to report: "Girl, the prince will come over soon, and ask the girl to prepare."

Qing Li didn't care. He lifted the quilt and was about to fall asleep. "It's his business whether he comes or not. I can't manage that much."

Lian Ye hurriedly pulled Song Lan aside, "Sister, don't blindly match the two of them. The young lady does not like the prince, and he is not sincere to the young lady.

Song Lan only shook his head, "I really don't understand, what happened to them, there is such a big gap."

Lian Ye went out with her, "I can't tell you, anyway, sister, you should listen to me."

Mo Mirage returned to the mansion and sent Xiangning back to the house. She wanted to stay with him overnight, but Mo Mirage declined, and only said that she would come again, and then hurriedly left. Xiangning's resentment towards Qingli deepened again.

Qing Li slept in his clothes, completely ignoring the gloomy expression of Mo Mirage standing behind her. He lifted her quilt and said angrily: "You give me up!"

Qing Li turned around reluctantly, there seemed to be flames in his eyes, "I'm up, are you satisfied? You must be very satisfied with all the humiliations in the palace banquet today."

Mo Mirage was taken aback by the look in her eyes, and then he said again: "Yes, this king just wants to see you desperate, and when you hear the name of Yu Chen and the tears you shed, this king is even more exasperated! "

Qing Li swept off the various porcelains placed on the bedside, antiques, and fragments scattered all over the bed slowly.

"You go! I don't want to see you, get out!"

Qingli shouted at him heartbreakingly. Mo Mirage stepped forward and stared at her eyes closely, "I've got my temper, have you forgotten the consequences of disobeying the king!"

Qingli said with hatred: "How dare I forget, Lord Mo, what a great person, the people admire you, and the officials of the court obey you, how can they respect a person who is not as good as a beast? What a joke, you Say it? Lord."

After Mo Mirage heard her words, the anger that had been squeezed in his chest for a long time could no longer be restrained, and he lifted her into the air by pulling up the skirt of her clothes.

Qingli's throat was uncomfortable, even panting was a little bit difficult, Mo Xiang said bitterly: "This king has the life of a man? What is the reason why this king left you and your maid's life!"

Qingli whispered intermittently: "That's because you don't know how to love, you, tortured me, look at me in pain, you will feel very well in your perverted heart..."

Before she could finish speaking, Mo Mirage threw her heavily on the bed. Qingli's back was instantly stinged by the dense fragments. She subconsciously curled up to relieve the pain, and sucked in a mouthful of cold air.

Mo Xiang saw that the fabric on her back was soaked in blood, he tried to stretch out his hand, but he heard Qingli gasping and saying, "Go away... don't come near me."

The pity that had occurred just now disappeared, and Mo Mirage seemed to be possessed by a demon. He evened her painful body, pressed hard against her, and the fragments pierced her skin deeply. Qingli was at this moment. But he smiled, coquettishly, and the red lotus hairpin lining her hair bun charmed Mo Mi's eyes.

"Kill me, then I will be free, and you will be happy too, right?"

Mo Mi's eyes were full of resentment. He took off Qing Li's clothes one by one, but she did not resist or shed tears, just like Gu Mumu let him play around.

The room is full of spring, she seems to have no longer feel the pain in her back, the man on her body is dripping with sweat, like drops of blood falling on her body, she has no expression, seems to be desperate, her hand is groping on her side, not long. A larger piece of porcelain was found.

She looked deeply into Mo Mirage's eyes, Mo Mirage lifted her hand away from the greasy hair on her forehead, but Qing Li violently inserted the porcelain piece into the back of his neck.
