Murong Yingluo left Yutaijiao, hid in a dark alley and sat on the bluestone slab, without a single tear in her eyes. She hated herself for being blind and falling in love with Gongyichu so desperately.
"Since you have not forgotten your love, why did you marry me?" Si Wushang said coldly when he saw her unfocused pupils and hated seeing her dying look.
Yingluo's eyes narrowed and she slowly raised her head to stare at him, "It's not that I haven't forgotten my feelings. I just hate myself for being so stupid. Why didn't I see his true face clearly earlier?"
"If you really hate him, you should repay him no matter how much he hurts you, and let him know what retribution is."
Murong Yingluo clenched her fists fiercely, hatred bursting from her eyes, "Gongyichu, if you betray me, I will pay you back a thousand times."
Si Wushang stood quietly beside her, letting her think clearly about how to go in the future. Only if she truly thinks clearly can she use it for herself.
Murong Yingluo was in a bad mood. She wanted to drink, so she suddenly stood up from the ground and walked towards the restaurant ahead.
However, she was held by Si Wushang from behind. Yingluo looked at the hand held by him with a puzzled expression, "My lord, what are you going to do? I just want to find a place to drink."
Si Wushang's appearance was so striking that he didn't want to reveal his identity, "If you want to go out like this, we are wearing night clothes. I will take you to a place where you can drink as much wine as you like."
The two of them returned to the palace and headed straight for the ice cellar in the palace. The entire ice cellar was cut out of bluestone. At the end of the ice cellar was a natural wind cave. It was much colder here than above.
There are a lot of ice cubes stored in the stone chamber, and there are a lot of wine jars in the secret room in the middle. Drinking cool wine in the hot summer is both warm and refreshing.
Yingluo looked at the strange layout here. In addition to ice and wine, there is also a bath carved from ice. "Is this a bath? Do you need to use wine to bathe?"
Si Wushang opened his mouth and explained: "This wine cellar was built by my father, and the bath was once filled with medicinal wine, which was used to treat my illness."
Murong Yingluo's eyes were full of doubts. It turned out that he was really sick before, but he was cured later. However, when he thought of sitting naked in the ice pool, how much pain he had to endure, but his tone was very...
It was plain, as if it was telling someone else's story. Maybe it was because the temperature in the ice cellar was too cold, and Yingluo actually shuddered a little.
Si Wushang was not sick at all, but was poisoned by a chronic poison. The Queen Mother's son was born weak and suffering from heart disease. The Queen Mother was afraid that King Zheng would threaten her son's throne and wanted to murder her mother and son. When the late Emperor learned about it, he spoke out
After warning, Concubine Chen was forced to death in the end. The late emperor was so angry that he threatened the whole family of the queen mother. In order to cover up the public, he adopted King Zheng to the queen. The queen mother did not dare to act rashly, so she only gave a slow poison to King Zheng.
.
Si Wushang casually took a jar of wine, broke the seal on the jar, handed it over, and warned: "This wine is called Zui Xian Brewing and has a strong stamina. I advise you to drink less to strengthen your muscles.
I'm afraid it will be very uncomfortable if you get drunk."
Yingluo directly stretched out her hand and took the wine jar he handed over. Just smelling the mellow taste of the wine, she knew it was good wine. Her father raised her as a boy since she was a child, and it was common for her to drink in the military camp.
"Wine is for drinking. How can you count it as drinking if you are not drunk? When I was in the military camp, I drank as much as a man. If the prince doesn't believe it, why don't we stay drunk and never come back!"
Si Wushang just smiled. He had been soaked in medicinal wine since he was a child. It is not an exaggeration to say that he could never get drunk after a thousand cups, let alone just a little yellow-haired girl.
He knows the potency of this wine better than anyone else. Even a grown man will get drunk after drinking three bowls of this wine.
It's not like he spoke the truth after drinking. He really wanted to know the unknown secrets in Yingluo's heart.
He picked up another wine jar, knocked open the seal, and drank it all in one gulp. After all, Yingluo was the daughter of her family who drank from a large bowl, but she had never drank from the jar like this. Seeing him like this, she would also drink it.
He raised the wine jar and took a sip with a muffled sound.
"Ahem!" The wine wetted her clothes, Yingluo held her heart and coughed lightly.
Si Wushang frowned at her, "What! Didn't you drink like this in the military camp?"
"It's okay! It's just that the wine is a bit strong."
Since she said this, Si Wushang stopped caring about her and found a seat to sit down and drink alone. His eyes fell on the ice pond. His father had worked hard to survive for himself, and for his father
He and his mother and concubine must live well, and he will not spare the people who forced his mother and concubine to death.
Yingluo raised her eyes to look at Si Wushang. There were unpredictable and complicated emotions in her eyes, like the frozen lake where the bottom could not be seen. She seemed to have something on her mind, but she also thought of the live erotic drama performed by Yu Taijiao tonight, and she felt the bottom of her tongue feel bitter and annoying.
There were a lot of things going on, and it didn't matter what he was worried about. The two of them just had a cooperative relationship.
Looking at the rippling wine in the jar, it was condensed like honey, cold and mellow, sweet and refreshing. It was the best wine she had ever drunk. After drinking it, her whole body felt warm, and it was soft in the mouth without any strong taste.
.
Si Wushang quickly drank one jar of wine and stretched out his hand to take out the second jar. However, he saw Murong Yingluo's face was as pink as a lotus and she was drunk, so he tried to say: "Hey! If you are drunk, I, the king
I am not responsible for dragging you back."
Murong Yingluo did not expect that this wine would have such great stamina. After only drinking half of the jar, her body became so light that she could not stand upright and could not even move. However, her mind was sober. "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I won't let you go."
What a joke, I can use martial arts to protect my whole body, even if the prince leaves me here, I won’t freeze to death.”
Unexpectedly, she drank too much and the title was correct, "Don't use your skills, otherwise the alcohol will poison your mind."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the wine jar tilting and smashing to the ground. Si Wushang ran over in an instant, stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms, and his mind was a little confused due to the surge of alcohol.
He hurriedly put his hand on her wrist. Fortunately, it was not the poison of alcohol, but he was dizzy due to the heavy stamina of the alcohol. He stretched out his hand and patted her cheek, "Hey, do you still recognize me?"
who?"
Yingluo heard the sound and raised her blurred eyes to look at him. All the images were overlapped together. She couldn't see clearly, but he could hear the voice as warm as ice.
"You are Prince Zheng."
Since she recognized him, she should be fine. Seeing her appearance, she could only hug her back, but at this moment, Yingluo unexpectedly hugged Si Si Wushang tightly.
She didn't know if being drunk made her confused. She just felt wronged. All the negative emotions came to her overwhelmingly. She didn't have the sense of security she wanted. He wanted to find a hug to lean on. She felt that she
She was very tired and aggrieved, and she wanted to cry loudly.
"My mother despises me, why am I not a boy? I thought that as long as I learned martial arts well, I would be loved by my father. No matter how hard it was, I gritted my teeth and endured it. In the end, the person I loved most betrayed me. My heart
It's very cold and painful. I'm so lonely. Please give me a hug. I'm so afraid of being alone."
She was afraid that she would leave her in the ice cellar. When she saw her cheeks were wet with tears and shimmering, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes, she looked like she was begging. It turned out that she had grown up like this, so she had to endure the pain.
There was a hint of warmth in the frozen heart, and a trace of love flashed in the usually cold eyes. He actually felt compassion, and he bent down and took her into his arms with his long arms, giving her a warm support.
