Hearing that Xiang Ling made an appointment outside the palace to relax, Ruyue finally walked out of Yongshou Palace.Seeing Xiang Ling sitting on the porch with a paper umbrella, her expression was full of sadness, Ruyue couldn't help walking forward.

Xiang Ling didn't seem to notice it, she still held the handle of the umbrella with one hand and stroked it with the other, but on the one hand she held it tightly and on the other hand she was deeply attached to it.When the shadow covered the sun, Xiang Ling raised her head, only to realize that Ruyue was coming, and wanted to hide the umbrella behind her.

"There's no wind and no rain, how can Xiangling go out with an umbrella?" Ruyue forced a smile, as if she didn't intend to ask. "Or what's so special about this umbrella?"

Xiang Ling's eyes turned red when she heard this, and Ruyue knew something was wrong, she took Xiang Ling's arm and walked while talking, deliberately alienating Er He and Qian Rui who were following behind.

"What's wrong?"

For Xiangling, Ruyue's heart is full of complexities, she doesn't want to see her, but also longs to hear Wanxiu's words from her mouth; she doesn't believe her relationship with Wanxiu, but she is convinced that Wanxiu has someone else in her heart.After thinking over and over again, Ruyue still hopes that Muduer is the owner of the sachet, but if it is really Muduer, Ruyue dare not think any further.

Looking at Ruyue, Xiang Ling seemed to have made great determination, and said in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty, Xiang Ling stayed up all night last night and kept thinking about one thing. If I tell you, Your Majesty will definitely blame me, but Xiang Ling I really don't want to lie to my mother──"

"A few days ago, Concubine Chungui gave me the umbrella again. I opened the umbrella and saw that there were two knots inside."

"Knot?"

"Yes, it's 'Forever Together'...I can't accept this thing." Xiang Ling continued talking about what happened that day. "Cungui Dowager has a deep affection for me. If she can, she is willing to hold an umbrella for me to shield me from the troubles of the outside world. This umbrella used to be my consolation when facing the pain of bereavement, but..."

Ruyue couldn't help looking at the umbrella in Xiang Ling's hand. The gold thread on the umbrella was like a life-threatening thread, twisting and shrinking around her heart, making her almost out of breath.

"Your Majesty, the person Xiangling cares about is you." Xiangling took a quick step in front of Ruyue, and suddenly opened the umbrella. The sun couldn't fall into a shadow, but Ruyue clearly saw a ray of light cut through like a sharp knife, in front of Ruyue. Sharp deep marks were carved into the ground.

Looking at the umbrella, Ruyue held her breath in shock!

"This umbrella?!"

"That's right, I used scissors last night to stab and stab hard, I want to cut these feelings in two!" Xiang Ling suddenly stretched out her hand and pulled hard towards the gap, the original small opening burst instantly, and a sharp tearing sound came ears──

Ruyue seemed to see that the caring affection Wanxiu had had when she was young was shattered and fell off piece by piece, and a hole was smashed in her heart like an ice pick. Destroyed and shattered by Xiang Ling who got all of them!

A slap fell on Xiangling's cheek, feeling the slight pain in the palm, Ruyue slowly regained her senses. "Xiangling...just now I..."

"It's okay, empress. I'm very happy." Xiang Ling was really happy in her heart, because this slap symbolized that Rufei had completely fallen into the story she wove, and would no longer doubt other people. "Your Majesty attaches great importance to Xiang Ling, and Xiang Ling doesn't want to see her sad. Xiang Ling just wants to return the love of Princess Chungui to Zhao."

Return the love to you, you will return the peace of your life to me, and I will also give you the misunderstanding between you and Princess Chungui that will never be resolved.

"From then on, Xiangling and Concubine Chungui have nothing to do with each other. Xiangling has made an agreement with Muduer that she will leave the palace this winter, and she will not worry your empress again."

"Xiangling, are you leaving?" Ruyue felt a little flustered for some reason.

"Even if Xiang Ling likes the empress, there is no Xiang Ling in the eyes of the empress. From the beginning to the end, it was just Xiangling's wishful thinking and fell in love. I have no regrets about this feeling, but the empress... Ruyue, are you willing to accept it?" Xiang Ling looked straight at her. Ruyue's clear and bright eyes made Ruyue suddenly feel timid, and she turned her head slightly.

"Xiang Ling, since you have already made a decision, it is inconvenient for me to say anything more." Taking a step back, Ruyue walked around the corridor. "The scenery is just right now, Xiangling, you can spend a little more time with Bengong."

Erhe, who was following behind, showed worry on his face.Niangniang originally intended to use Xiangling, but now she is weakly grasping Xiangling, how could she be the empress she had seen before?In this relationship of using and being used, can the empress really escape unscathed?

Several thoughts turned in Er He's mind, and his expression became more and more cold.

After accompanying Ruyue to the garden, Xiang Ling walked to the Shoukang Palace with its heavy doors and closed doors. The kindness just now had changed into a cold expression, and she donated the paper umbrella before the palace gate.

When Youxiang went out to do errands in the palace, she recognized at a glance that the umbrella that was abandoned in the corner was the umbrella brought back by her aunt that day.Youxiang picked it up in a hurry, took it back to the palace and handed it to Concubine Chungui.

Wanxiu, who was originally smiling, turned pale the moment the paper umbrella was opened, and her soul seemed to have fallen into the prison of the mud plow.

"How did the umbrella become like this?" Yuxiang saw that the intact umbrella surface the day before had been torn a large gap, not to mention sheltering from the wind and rain, it couldn't even be used at all!

"It turns out that's how she views our relationship..." Mingming wanted to laugh, but her throat was already choked up, and her eyes suddenly showed resentment, and she threw the paper umbrella on the ground, and the ribs of the umbrella were trampled to pieces.

"You're all like this...you're all like this!"

Regardless of the joys and sorrows in the world, the sky will not stop or pass by for this reason. The way of heaven has no relatives. This is the only idea that Tong Jihai, who no longer looks up at the stars, came up with.

But at this moment, a burst of fists and kicks greeted him, and Tong Jihai had no time to dodge, and was beaten to the point where he was injured all over his body before he could see the murderer clearly in the dark.Everyone pinned him to the ground and stepped on his ribs hard with one foot.

"Damn it, you dare to rob women with Xue Dongsheng! I'm impatient!" Xue Dongsheng walked out from behind the eunuchs, turned his heels on Tong Jihai's body several times, and spat hard. "Even if I don't like Muduer, I feel unspeakably happy when I think of that bitch watching her lover being abused like this!"

Another kick, which made Tong Jihai vomit blood from his mouth.

"You should let that self-proclaimed aunt look at his lover's embarrassment! You feed him a full meal, and drag him outside the garden of Chuxiu Palace early in the morning, so that my aunt can watch!"

Xue Dongsheng laughed wildly for a few times and then left wildly. Tong Jihai covered his head with both hands and could only avoid the vital parts.But from the gap, I saw a star in the sky stopped between the Antares astrolabe, the red light was strange, and the brightness flickered.

"...The sky star is retrograde, the lord changes politics, and the Lord goes to his palace. It is a sign of Yinghuo guarding his heart! It is a sign of Yinghuo guarding his heart!" Tong Jihai has been immersed in the sky for many years, and it is also the first time he has seen the legendary catastrophe of the Lord. in mind. "There must be a big event in the world, there must be a big event! This time, it is impossible to make a mistake, it is impossible..."

While receiving punches and kicks, Tong Jihai looked at the sky and smiled foolishly.
