Hongde Longqiu looked into her stubborn eyes, "Are you blaming me for not finding out who hurt you?"
"You know who it is without tracing."
"Oh?" Hongde Longqiu sat opposite her, "Do you know who it is?"
"They are just people who like you but not me, but you are still the culprit."
"I?"
"Who are you? If you hadn't issued some imperial edict and asked me to follow you to the Eastern Capital, would I have been like this?"
Hongde Longqiu smiled, "If I didn't ask you to come, how could you have a chance to escape from the water?" Meng Xinzhu looked up at him, "I have already asked people to guard Kangding Lake. Even if you are in the palace,
No chance either."
"Oh," Meng Xinzhu nodded, "I just said that it was not such a coincidence that Xiao Zhao appeared that day. It turned out that it was all under your command." Hongde Longqiu nodded without denying it. Meng Xinzhu shook his head, "I really...
…”
Hongde Longqiu waited for a long time, but Meng Xinzhu just shook his head and said nothing.
"Who are you really?"
Meng Xinzhu ignored him and turned her head to look at the night. Hongde Longqiu smiled even happier.
Meng Xinzhu sighed heavily, "I thought I was good at acting and was very proud of myself. I didn't expect you to be a master of acting."
"I have to admit that you did a good job. I didn't recognize you until you rejected me two or three times. You must know that no concubine in the palace would refuse my favor like you, so I treat you
I became more and more curious, so I sent Xiao Zhao to spy on you, and then I discovered your secret."
Meng Xinzhu was silent. He said that he didn't know this, and he was worried that it would expose him. But after all, she was not a bamboo concubine, so how could she accept the emperor's so-called favor?
"Have you never thought that I killed Concubine Zhu and then pretended to be her?"
"I thought about it at first, but I found that the existing people in the cold palace are consistent with the household registration records. Where did the concubine who had been gone for a short time come from? And on the day of the death of Concubine Zhu,
The person who can sing that song for her does not look like her murderer, but rather like her confidant. In addition, after Zhu Fei received the reward, she asked for nothing but the abolition of life and death. I guess.
Concubine Zhu knew that her time was short, and she was worried that the person who had served her for many years would be killed in the end, but she met you by chance, so she staged this fake show."
"Since you know I'm a fake, why do you keep me here? Aren't you worried that I might be a killer and kill you?"
"Hahaha!" Hong Delongqiu laughed, "If you were a killer, I'm afraid I would be the target of this sacrifice now. Fortunately, you are not."
"So sure?"
Hongde Longqiu raised her chin, "Because your eyes have told me that a killer would not have such clear and bright eyes."
Meng Xinzhu was stunned, and she remembered what he said again: "Do you know why I want you to learn poetry, music, music, chess, calligraphy and painting that others don't need to learn? Why do I never send you to assassinate me? I don't want you to sacrifice yourself.
Hue? Because I am attached to your purity, and I hope to do my best to maintain it."
Hongde Longqiu noticed the trace of sadness and tenderness in her eyes, "Do you know that since I saw you, I will never forget you. I have missed you for as long as you have been hiding in the palace, so I will not
Let go of any opportunity to find you."
Meng Xinzhu said weakly: "There is no shortage of beauties around you, and I am not a beauty either."
"Because I must get these eyes."
Meng Xinzhu looked at him and suddenly narrowed her eyes, "In that case, I'll cut them out and give them to you."
Hongde Longqiu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly, "Hahaha, I don't want the eyeballs, I want the aura in those eyes." He moved closer to Meng Xinzhu, whose chin was held up by him, "It's a human being
The aura.”
Meng Xinzhu was frightened, "Although I will return to Zhuyuan, it does not mean that I will become your concubine!"
"I will make you my concubine."
"Did you know that blind confidence can turn into arrogance?"
Hongde Longqiu held up the back of Meng Xinzhu's head and asked her to look directly at him, "No matter what, I will decide for you."
Meng Xinzhu did not feel scared, but found it funny. She pushed Hongde Longqiu away, "Even if you are the emperor, there are things in this world that you cannot have, let alone people." She stood up, "After struggling for so long, I
I’m tired, so I’ll go back first. However, I suggest you’d better get some air here to cool down your over-inflated ego.”
After arriving in Dongdu, Hongde Longqiu went to discuss sacrifices and celebrations with the princes and ministers. After packing his luggage, Meng Xinzhu walked alone in the garden of Dongdu Palace.
Dongdu was originally the capital of the Moon Kingdom, but it was occupied due to the war. The Emperor of the Moon Kingdom moved the capital to the Moon Capital. However, the imperial tombs of the ancestors of the Moon Kingdom were still in the East Capital. Later, after the Moon Kingdom regained its lost territory, this place became
It became the Eastern Capital of the Moon.
Meng Xinzhu climbed up to a pavilion. It may be because the emperor rarely came to live here, so the maintenance here is not as good as that of the Yuedu Palace. Although the palace is older, it still does not lose its grandeur.
"Sister Zhu Fei! Sister Zhu Fei!" Meng Xinzhu was in a daze on the pavilion when she heard the call of the Tenth Princess. "Sister Zhu Fei, it turns out you came here and made it easy for me to find you." The Tenth Princess smiled and walked away.
Enter the pavilion.
"I was bored for a while, so I came out to take a look."
"Sister, I noticed that your complexion is getting better and better recently."
Of course, after her identity was discovered by Hong Delong Qiu, Meng Xinzhu knew that there was no need to continue wearing makeup, so she restored her original appearance.
"Oh," Meng Xinzhu touched her cheek, "Maybe it's because I'm more accustomed to the climate here. I feel much better."
"Judging from my sister's point of view, it must be because of the Emperor's concern."
Meng Xinzhu looked at her, "Why do you say that?"
"Although everyone said that the emperor asked my sister to accompany me this time, he wanted to keep me company. But after my sister fell into the water, the emperor immediately ran out to look for her. He was afraid that her sister would catch a cold, and even gave her a dragon robe to wear. Anyone with a discerning eye would know that the emperor is
I care about my sister."
Meng Xinzhu frowned. Regardless of whether the emperor really cared about her or was just greedy for the temporary novelty, the current situation was too unfavorable for her.
The tenth princess did not pay attention to Meng Xinzhu's reaction, and said to herself: "Knowing that my sister is weak and drowned again, the emperor ordered everyone not to disturb you, to have a good rest, and to apologize to the Queen Mother on your behalf." Long Haodu said
, I have never seen the emperor care so much about a concubine. Sister, sister! Why are you so stunned?"
