She didn't know how many things would be involved once she left. As the saying goes, one move could affect the whole body, so she wouldn't be so stupid as to throw herself into a trap and fall into a pit of fire.
Wu Ye ate his meal gracefully, lowering his head to hide the faint smile in his eyes.
Ye Xingtong tilted her head and looked at him. She didn't know when she got close to him. She held her chin in one hand and looked at him with a smile. She suddenly said, "Wu Ye, I found that you actually look good when you smile."
The smile on Wu Ye's lips froze, and he picked up a chicken leg as if nothing had happened.
"Well, how should I put it? You are the most beautiful person I have ever seen. No alluring beauty can compare to even a small finger like yours." Ye Xingtong stretched out a finger and gestured, There is also a tendency to continue talking: "You are wearing men's clothing now and people can't take their eyes away. You said that if you put on women's clothing, it will definitely be more shocking. Then there should be..."
Ye Xingtong suddenly felt a chill all over her body. She subconsciously raised her head and met Wu Ye's eyes as bright as stars. She smiled, picked up a chopstick and picked up a handful of meatballs and put them into the bowl in front of Wu Ye: "Eat, you You’re too thin, you have to eat more to make your body... grow.”
Ye Xingtong, whose brain was close to blank, almost held back his thoughts for a long time before he came up with such a lame reason.
Wu Ye looked at the beef meatballs Ye Xingtong put for him strangely, and then looked at Ye Xingtong again.
There was a sparkle in his eyes, as if he was very puzzled by her behavior.
Ye Xingtong smiled brightly at him, touched her cheek and said, "Eat, what are you looking at me for? Do I have flowers on my face?"
"Am I very low?" Wu Ye asked.
"..." Ye Xingtong.
I bet this is what he cares about
"Am I skinny?"
"..." Ye Xingtong.
Ye Xingtong choked for a moment and silently vomited a mouthful of blood in his heart.
Isn’t it okay that she said the wrong thing
You are neither short nor thin, with a good figure, good appearance, exquisite facial features, jade tree facing the wind, majestic and handsome...
…
After dinner, Wu Ye went back and Ye Xingtong sat in front of the table under the candle and read a travel journal.
Before she read a few pages, a noise outside disturbed her thoughts.
"Your Highness!" came a female voice.
Ye Xingtong glanced at the moonlit window with all his thoughts in mind, put down the book and walked out.
Jun Yifan was about to come in when he saw Ye Xingtong coming this way. He nodded to her and said hoarsely: "Xingtong, you won't blame me for disturbing you so late, right?"
Ye Xingtong smiled and shook his head: "I am a guest, and I keep troublesome for you when I live here. How can I despise the trouble? Do you want to sit here for a while, or go out?"
"Let's go out, the weather is nice tonight, let's enjoy the moon together!" Jun Yifan said.
"Okay." Ye Xingtong agreed readily.
Although it was getting late, the palace was still bright and the corridors were full of lights, not much different from the daytime.
After walking a short distance through the corridor, I came to a pavilion standing on the lake.
The crescent moon shines high in the sky, shining brightly, casting a hazy light, quietly entering among the dense treetops, and hiding mischievously among them.
Below the pavilion is the sparkling water, with occasional ripples, which is very beautiful when illuminated by the moonlight.
After sitting down, Ye Xingtong turned his eyes to the water and said in a distant voice: "I used to be in a bad mood. When I was very young, my mother suddenly became ill. I didn't believe it, not at all. In my heart, my mother is a god-like existence. No matter what happens, nothing can trouble her. She is always smart, alert, and omnipotent... She also has a very ordinary heart. She told me, What she has wanted since she was a child is to be with one person for the rest of her life, to grow old together with the person she loves and who loves her, and to live her life peacefully."
"But since she met her father, she abandoned her original idea. No matter what his identity is, she likes him if she likes him. The mother is brave. At that time, the father did not reveal his identity, and the mother's family members She believed that the person her mother liked was just an ordinary person, so she firmly opposed it. For the sake of the person she loved, she left home and went to her father. At that time, the father was facing many problems, internal and external troubles, and constant conspiracies inside and outside. , all kinds of disputes between princes... "
"After knowing the identity of the emperor, the queen mother may have known her future destiny, but she still moved forward bravely and persisted. After the emperor ascended the throne, she was forced to take in more concubines in order to balance the ministers in the court. Although the queen felt bitter, She must also swallow her blood. She was such a great person, but she left us when we were very young. I can understand your feelings, we are actually the same person."
"I don't know what kind of pain you still have in your heart, but as a friend, I still hope that you can get out of the pain. Face what you have to face bravely. Being timid can only make you trapped by yourself forever. , if you can’t get over the hurdle in your heart, maybe in the future, you will regret what you did today.”
"As long as we do what we want, do we care about anything else? As long as we are happy ourselves, who cares about others? Jun Yifan, it's not a big deal, it will pass."
Ye Xingtong gently patted Jun Yifan's shoulder.
After all, I couldn't bear to see him look decadent and depressed.
Jun Yifan slowly pressed Ye Xingtong's hand, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Do you know what an incredible thing happened to me? At the moment when the imperial concubine committed suicide, I had conflicts. She was the murderer, and she deserved to die. , but I felt so damn uncomfortable in my heart, as if I had lost something important. When she was about to die, I still felt a little bit regretful."
"Then, I was told that my original queen mother was not my biological mother. My biological mother was another person, the vicious woman who killed my mother. Do you think this is possible? What's going on? ? How could a woman as vicious as her be my biological mother?"
Jun Yifan looked at Ye Xingtong and smiled: "Tell me, is this a joke played by God on me? It's funny, isn't it?"
A trace of surprise flashed across Ye Xingtong's eyes.
She guessed that the imperial concubine and Jun Yifan had a special connection, but it was not so bloody.
Forgive her for thinking wrongly at first, thinking that the imperial concubine liked Jun Yifan, so she wanted to help him wholeheartedly, even at the expense of herself to eliminate all difficulties for him.
Ahem, Ye Xingtong felt deeply guilty.
But the guilt didn't last long, Jun Yifan was waiting for her answer.
He must be feeling very sad, so he came to her to talk to her.
He coughed lightly, shook his head and said, "It's not funny at all."
"You think so too? I don't think it's funny either." Jun Yifan reached out and poured a glass of wine. After one glass of wine, a chill came over him, and the panic in his heart eased a lot.
His arm sank, and a jade hand that glowed brightly under the moonlight rested on his arm: "Jun Yifan, in fact, life is just like this. Who doesn't have a sad thing? Either you are Fate is teasing, or you are teasing fate, just look away. Now the imperial concubine is dying, and she doesn’t know whether she can survive. No matter how bad she has done, God has punished her enough. She is also a lonely person. A helpless woman, there is no absolute right or wrong in this world, especially in the palace. If you don't take action, you may die. If you want to live, you need to do something that you are forced to do to protect yourself. It's not too late, I hope you won't make a decision that you will regret."
Jun Yifan's hand holding the wine glass paused slightly.
The imperial concubine... is indeed a woman with a tragic life experience. Her family and country were destroyed, and she was abandoned by her senior brothers. She stayed alone in the harem and spent a miserable life. She faced the other conspiracies and calculations of the women in the palace alone. If she is not careful, she may step into a place of eternal destruction... It seems that her life cannot be described in a few words.
My father was not a miserable person. He loved one person throughout his life, but he could never win her heart.
Retribution, retribution, this is retribution!
But because of her loneliness, can she hurt others unscrupulously
The queen mother was poisoned and died. How miserable, innocent, and lonely her death was! Why can she harm others without any guilt
The palms were slightly clenched, and with a "bang" sound, the wine glass shattered, and dark red blood gurgled from the palms of the hands.
The pain in the palm of my hand seemed not to be felt at all. The fragments of the wine glass were held tighter and tighter, and more and more blood flowed.
Drop by drop fell to the ground.
Ye Xingtong was startled and hurriedly wrapped him up with a handkerchief: "You are bleeding. Go to the Tai Hospital to bandage it quickly!"
Jun Yifan pressed his left hand on the wound that was bandaged with a handkerchief. His expression was slightly gloomy, but he looked much better than when he came here.
He shook his head lightly: "I'm fine. I'll just go back and get some medicine. Thank you for accompanying me today."
The two hands touched each other, and the contact between the bodies caused an electric current to rush through the whole body. Ye Xing took his hand back as if his pupils were shrinking, put it behind his back, and said calmly: "You're welcome, if I can make you happy, Even if you let me stay with you for one night, I'm willing to do it. Well, you're injured, so you'd better go back and bandage it as soon as possible!"
On a tree not far from the pavilion, under the swaying branches, a man with picturesque features, as if he had stepped out of a painting, was lying quietly on it.
At this moment, I don’t know whether it is the tree that sets off the person, or the person’s magnificence that makes the tree stand out.
Wu Ye looked at the two people who were affectionate and reluctant to leave in boredom, with the corners of his lips pursed slightly, unable to see clearly his true emotions.
It wasn't until Jun Yifan left that he fell lightly from the big tree, stepped directly across the lake, and flew to where Ye Xingtong was standing.
Suddenly there was a figure in front of his eyes. Ye Xingtong was slightly startled, his pupils shrank, and he stretched out his hand to attack when someone quietly pressed his shoulder: "It's me!"
