"Yes, our Prime Minister is young and promising. There are not many people who can reach such a high position at the age of thirty." Xiaoyu answered matter-of-factly.

It is indeed not much. It seems that she has missed too much. Is it too late for her to come back now?

"Sister, you really don't know anything? How did you get into the palace?" Xiaoyu was even more curious. She didn't even know who the current emperor was. Did she come from the mountains?

Chu Xia thought for a while, "I came from a far away place, so I don't know much about the situation here. I thought the palace was easy to get around, but when I first came in, I almost lost my life. So I planned to sneak out.

,Xiaoyu, what are your plans?"

You will leave sooner or later, but she is really worried about leaving this girl here alone.

Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly dimmed again, and she muttered sadly: "I was sent to the palace by my parents, and I signed a contract. I can't leave the palace before the deadline, unless I die."

Seeing that the little girl was sad again, Chu Xia felt uncomfortable. She knew that if she left here, the girl might not have a way to survive, so before she left, she had to arrange a place to go.

He smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, since you call me sister, it's impossible for my sister to leave you alone. I will definitely take you out of here."

Xiaoyu raised her head suddenly, her eyes shining with joy, but soon the excitement in her eyes dimmed and turned into helplessness, "No need, sister, if you can go out, just go out. It's impossible for me to go out. Even if I go out,

If you do, you will be caught and brought back, which will harm your family and you." If she could, she really wanted to leave here. When her parents sent her to the palace, they expected her to honor her ancestors. If they knew that she almost killed

What would she think if her reputation was lost here? But compared to those sisters who were executed, she was lucky. Besides, her sister was a good person, so how could she bear to drag her down.

Chu Xia naturally knew what she was thinking. It would be useless to talk about it now. Since she wanted to save her, she would naturally not leave any trouble. We would wait two days to discuss this matter. Besides, she was very weak now and her injuries were not healed yet. No.

Easy to move.

He put the clothes on the little girl again and said, "We'll talk about this in a few days. Now you just take good care of yourself and don't think about anything else. I'll go get you something to eat."

She has been pretending to be a palace maid these days, which is a lot more convenient and she will not go hungry. But Xiaoyu is a wounded person now and needs to eat nutritious food, so she will have to worry a lot.

"Sister, don't steal anymore, it will be very dangerous." Xiaoyu hurriedly grabbed Chu Xia's sleeve, her eyes full of worry and emotion. She didn't want her sister to take risks for her anymore. They were not relatives, she

How can I bear it?

"I understand. You can rest first. I'll be back soon."

Chu Xia settled down with Xiaoyu, turned around and left the woodshed. This poor place was really not a good place to recuperate, so she had to leave as soon as possible.

When passing by the Imperial Garden, I heard a familiar voice. It sounded familiar, but it was a bit abnormal. Because when he talked to her, that person's expression and tone were sinister and vicious; but at this time, his soft words were obviously gentle and charming.

of.

"Your Majesty, you haven't been with Meng'er for a long time. Meng'er still thinks you have forgotten me?"

Chu Xia couldn't help but tremble. This vicious woman was really not suitable to speak in such a tone.

The petite body quietly hid in the flowers. Through the clusters of flowers, I saw two people cuddling closely, standing side by side in front of a sea of ​​flowers. One was tall and one was short, one was large and one was small. The sun coated their bodies with a layer of sunlight.

The golden light, seen from a distance, is really a pair of beautiful people.

The person who spoke just now was the imperial concubine, Zhao Meng'er. She had the posture of a little bird clinging to her, almost pressing her whole body against her. There was a hint of resentment in her tone, but there was nostalgic admiration in her eyes.

Looking next to her, she is wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, golden cloud-patterned dragon boots, a slender figure, proud and straight, and a helpless face in the sun, reflecting the dazzling brilliance, perfect like the statue of Apollo, which makes people

Don't dare to look directly.

Her heart couldn't help but start to beat wildly, but this time it was different from when she saw him in the 'Tianwu Pavilion'. Because this person was once the closest to her, the Junbao she cherished.

He is right in front of you, as if you can touch it with your tentacles; the familiar facial features and unfamiliar breath give people an invisible sense of alienation.

At this time, he is more calm than before. The dignity of the royal family and the aura of dominating the world are perfectly reflected in him. He is many times more powerful than that little kid.

Her Junbao had really grown up, but she didn't recognize him at first sight. It was because he was too handsome and handsome, and his aura was too huge. Compared with him ten years ago, he was completely different.

Although it was possible to see his extraordinary handsomeness and the most noble aura of a king at that time, he lacked the courage of a mature man. Today, Jing Yuan is undoubtedly the proud son of heaven, a god who came to the world, aloof and commanding the world.

People look up to him, and countless women are fascinated by him. He has a proud appearance that is popular among women all over the world, and he also possesses supreme power. He is a true king.

Junbao, I'm here, do you still remember Chu Xia ten years ago?

Her heartbeat was getting stronger and stronger, and she was almost out of breath. Chu Xia really wanted to walk over, hug him as tightly as before, and tell him how much she missed her. She wanted to find a sense of security in each other and feel each other's affection.

exist.

But at this moment, I heard the man speak, cool and cool, with the majesty of a king.

"How could it be? I've just been a little busy recently. I believe my concubine can understand me, right?" This was said to the woman beside me, but her eyes were always looking at the blooming peonies in front of her. Her eyes were vague, but yet

None are in focus.

The woman smiled shyly and said softly: "I naturally know that the emperor has many things to do every day, and I don't dare to expect the emperor to accompany me every day. As long as the emperor has a place for me in his heart, I will be satisfied.

"

"My dear wife, you still understand me and understand me, and my sincerity towards you is not in vain." The young king slowly moved his eyes to the woman, with a smile in his eyes. But if you look carefully, you will find that there is a smile in his eyes.

Cold.

Zhao Meng'er sneered in her heart when she heard this, "Sincerely? Thanks to your words, do you really think I'm a puppet? I'm at your mercy? Have you ever been sincere to me?"

But she could only think about this in her heart, but she didn't dare to ask. Instead, she looked flattered.

"The emperor will make Meng'er happy. I have been with the emperor for so many years, and I naturally understand the emperor's thoughts." Zhao Meng'er said with a wink, and then said: "But I heard that the emperor is looking for someone recently.

, who is this person? Is he important to the emperor?"

A sharp light flashed quickly in Jing Yuan's eyes, and then he disappeared without a trace, and just said lightly: "I also know my concubine, it is Chu Xia who saved my life ten years ago." He knew that she was trying to trick her.

If he said so, he would simply answer her openly.

When Chu Xia heard her name, her heart skipped a beat. Was he looking for her? It turned out that he had not forgotten her. A feeling of joy suddenly filled her heart. Her Junbao had not changed.

But before she could finish being happy, what they said later made her completely cold.

Zhao Meng'er's face sank, her eyes were full of sadness, and she said sadly: "Your Majesty, it's really common sense. She has been missing for ten years, and the Emperor has been looking for her for ten years. He doesn't care whether she is still alive or not? Whether she is married or not.

As a wife. If my concubine goes missing, I’m afraid the emperor will not only not look for her, but he will also be happy, right?"

That's natural. If you weren't with me, I would wish for the whole world to celebrate. Of course, he will not say these things in his heart. Although he hates this vicious woman, he has to take care of her father and the deceased Taifu.

"What did my beloved concubine say? You clearly know that Miss Chu has saved my life. As the saying goes, if you receive a drop of kindness from someone, you must repay it with a spring. I am now the emperor of ninety-five years. You worked hard with me back then.

My old minister has been granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister, but she is the only one, and I have done nothing for her, so how can I feel at ease?"

Zhao Meng'er's face suddenly became happy, and she asked tactfully: "Is the emperor really doing this to repay his kindness?"

With a quick glance, he asked in a cold voice: "What do you think, my beloved concubine?"

"Meng'er always thought that the emperor loved her deeply. Could it be that I was wrong?" Although the emperor's eyes looked a little scary, she still had the courage to ask.

Jing Yuan concealed his emotions, stretched out his arms around her slender waist, and said calmly: "My dear, you are worrying too much. I just don't want to be said to be an ungrateful person." He knew how cruel this woman was, and if she let her

He knew that he had feelings for Chu Xia and would be cruel to her. So before he found Chu Xia, he could not anger her.

"Did the emperor tell the truth? Then why do you still insist on making her your queen?" She wanted to ask him for an explanation today, so it was best to give her a promise.

The coldness in the emperor's eyes became stronger and stronger, but the smile on his face made people feel like a spring breeze.

"That's because she was booked for me by my mother. How could I cancel it privately? Wouldn't it make people all over the world accuse me of being ungrateful? How can she be qualified as a woman with no family, no background, and a very young age?

How about being my queen?

In fact, this is one of the reasons why I am eager to find her. I will persuade her to give up her plan to be a queen, so that I can explain it to the world. Of course, I will also give her some compensation, which can be regarded as my compensation for her.

Concubine, what do you think of my idea?"

After hearing this, Zhao Meng'er naturally agreed with everything. If the emperor really planned this, she didn't have to worry. But soon her heart sank, and she had second thoughts. The emperor had always been very thoughtful, so how could he tell her the truth?

.She must be trying to trick her. Thinking of this, the newly raised hope was extinguished again.
