Gongzhongji

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager invites you to visit the Yi Palace."

"I see, you step back."

"Yes."

The maid lowered her head and slowly walked out of the room backwards, closing the door gently, not daring to take another look.They all heard the stern cry just now, but when they entered the room, they just accidentally slipped across the bed from the corner of their eyes, and were glared coldly by His Majesty, if they take another look...

The gauze curtain hangs down in front of the bed, majestic and plundering, dancing gently.

Xia Hao stared at the person around him, and gently stroked the waistline of the person with his fingertips, only then realized that this thin body was covered with bruises.Clavicles, shoulders, chest, fingerprints and bite marks are all over the place, the bluish red marks are particularly eye-catching on the fair skin, the line of sight is down the waistline, the blood between the red and swollen buttocks is mixed with traces of white turbidity, congealed on the thighs and the bed, Obscene and miserable.

"You shouldn't have resisted me...yes, you shouldn't have resisted..."

Xia Hao muttered to himself, Xia Yan was already in a coma and could not hear such accusations.

"Han Shixi won't come to save you, and you can't escape...Why torture yourself like this...Be good, I will treat you well..."

Xia Hao was silent for a moment, then slowly sat up, put on his clothes and left the bedroom.

He is going to visit his mother.

The woman on the imperial concubine's bed seemed to be a little older, the frown at the corners of her eyes deepened, and the lines at the corners of her mouth became more obvious, but this did not affect her luxury and beauty.However, she who was about to be promoted from noble concubine to empress dowager didn't look very happy, the corners of her mouth were tightly pursed, and her complexion was dark.

"Meet the queen."

Xia Hao saluted respectfully, but the woman didn't let him flatten.

!Clang!

The fine celadon cup was thrown to the ground viciously by the owner, and it fell into pieces at Xia Hao's feet.

Xia Hao raised his eyes and said calmly: "Why is the queen mother angry?"

Concubine Rong stood up abruptly, her high-pitched voice was as sharp as two pieces of porcelain rubbing against each other: "You still dare to ask me why I am angry! You know what you have done yourself!"

"The child doesn't understand."

"You don't understand? One of them doesn't understand! I'll explain it to you!" Concubine Rong pointed at his nose and said sharply: "You think I don't know about the good things you did in the palace? How dare you put that The little slut came to the palace, and he, with him—did that stupid thing! Do you want any woman, but you want to be with him—where do you put the royal face! This story is passed on Go out, do you still want to be the emperor!"

The fist hidden in the sleeve was tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened, and after several struggles in his heart, Xia Hao finally endured and did not argue with his mother and concubine face to face. He lowered his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes and said indifferently: "Mother, the child has his own way." Proper, don't bother my mother to worry about."

Concubine Rong was furious: "What sense do you have! Get that little bitch out immediately, or I'll kill her for you!"

The corner of Xia Hao's mouth twitched, even though he didn't want to conflict with his mother, his face became slightly cold.

Xia Hao was silent for a while, and said: "Mother, you are tired, you should take a rest."

"you!"

Xia Hao straightened up and strode out of Yi Palace.

"Evil son!"

Concubine Rong angrily swept down the things on the table, ping-pong-pong, all kinds of things fell to the ground.The maids who were waiting on the side could not help but kneel down in fear, lowering their heads and not daring to make a sound.

Concubine Rong fell down on the couch and panted heavily, her slender fingers tightly grasped the armrest, her veins bulged, as if she wished she could crush the armrest.

Rousha sighed, at this time, only she, the most caring maid of honor of Rong Gui, could come forward and say a few words.

"Your Majesty, please calm down." Rousha said softly, "Your Majesty is still ignorant and doesn't understand your good intentions, Your Majesty."

Concubine Rong slapped the handrail vigorously, and said angrily: "He doesn't understand Ben Gong's intentions! He is clearly fascinated by that little bitch! He doesn't even think about it, it's his brother! It's a man! It's an ugly man! man!"

Rousha sighed: "In the current situation, the more you say that about him, the more he won't listen to you. I'm afraid you still resented your mother for saying that about his sweetheart just now. Don't be upset, my mother, change that person tomorrow." Take it away from His Majesty's eyes, and His Majesty will forget it after a while."

Concubine Rong gasped for a moment, and her distorted face finally calmed down. What the confidant lady said was right, instead of getting angry here, it is better to find a way to get rid of that person.

"Rousha, send someone to get rid of that little bitch!"

Xia Yan lay on the bed, silently looking at the top of the bed.

Gaining hope again and again, being shattered again and again, touching happiness again and again, and being hurt again and again.Destiny always seems to be turning around in circles, returning to the starting point again and again, seeing the familiar scenery and tasting the familiar taste, Xia Yan feels that he seems to be a little numb, he can calmly speak his mother tongue after waking up, lie down and rest peacefully, Recalling the origin of every pain in his body, the momentary trance even made him feel that everything yesterday could be forgotten.

What Xia Hao did was not the most painful one, nor was it the most desperate one.

It's just a little pain... what does it matter.

"I will come to pick you up, I will!"

The words before the farewell are still in my ears, what Zheng said, if I can't go back, he will come to pick me up.

What kind of secret medicine that can forget feelings, such a medicine is impossible to exist...

Xia Yan kept thinking about what he had learned over the years. His master is the most powerful poison master in the world. If there is such a medicine, it is impossible for the master not to know about it. Even if he cannot teach him for a while, he will definitely record it in his notes .Xia Yan has never heard of this kind of prescription, so it must not exist!

Xia Hao is deceiving himself, wanting to give up his heart──it must be like this!

Xia Yan gritted his teeth and used the pain to strengthen his confidence.

I closed my eyes tiredly. Although I couldn't fall asleep, I didn't want to move at all. My eyelids could feel the sunlight moving slowly, and the warm light fell on my body, which seemed to make people's soul float together.I don't know how long it took, Xia Yan was awakened from the half-dream and half-awake state by the faint voice of conversation, and Xia Hao walked to the bed with a smile while opening his eyes.

Xia Hao sat down on the edge of the bed, gently held Xia Yan's hand outside the quilt, and said softly: "Brother Yan, are you awake? Are you hungry? I heard the people below say that you haven't eaten since you woke up." .”

Xia Yan was silent for a while, then said lightly, "I'm hungry."

Xia Hao showed joy, and immediately asked someone to bring porridge, helped Xia Yan to sit up, and said courteously: "Brother Yan, can I feed you?"

Xia Yan shook his head and reached out for bowls, he wanted to eat by himself.

Xia Hao didn't care either, smiled and was about to hand over the porridge bowl, but halfway through it, he suddenly remembered something and took it back.Xia Yan looked at him puzzled, and suddenly felt a little uneasy: Is he going to starve himself to death?

Xia Hao seemed to have seen through his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Brother Yan, don't worry, let me try the poison first." Xia Hao took a spoonful and ate it by himself. In front of Xia Yan, he seemed to explain: "I'm afraid that some people will not see our friendship, so you might as well be careful during this time."

Xia Yan felt a little baffled, he ate, thinking who would poison him, he didn't understand the situation around Xia Hao at all, not to mention that after leaving the palace for so many years, the right and wrong in the palace have also been forgotten, think about it Go, it took me a long time to remember that Xia Hao's mother concubine Rong Guifei has always hated her very much, if Rong Guifei found out... her mother was also killed by that woman back then...

Xia Yan's movements paused, and after a moment of silence, he picked up the bowl and began to eat slowly.

No matter what, he must live on, live well, and wait for Zheng to pick him up, loosen his shackles, and lead him out of this prison.

Xia Hao probably saw Xia Yan being so docile and smiling all over his face, and said, "Brother Yan, you will live here from now on, and I will come to see you every day, okay?"

Xia Yan didn't speak, and didn't want to talk to the person in front of him at all.

Xia Hao didn't seem to be aware of this silent resistance, and still said with a smile: "Brother Yan, my enthronement ceremony will be in half a month. Do you think it's okay when you come?" He suddenly said "ah", She clapped her hands and said, "By the way, brother Yan, why don't you put on women's clothes for a while, and I will make you a concubine, okay? Then we can be together legitimately!"

Xia Yan couldn't bear it anymore, gritted his teeth and cursed: "You are dreaming!"

Xia Hao was not unhappy at all: "Hehe, doesn't Brother Yan like to wear women's clothes? Well, I also like Brother Yan wearing such elegant clothes. The clothes of those concubines are too gorgeous, and they pollute Brother Yan instead."

Xia Yan ignored him and just ate the porridge. He felt that Xia Hao was a little crazy—well, he was crazy in the first place!

Xia Hao was in a good mood and chattered about trivial matters, but Xia Yan didn't respond at all. When the porridge was finished, he put the bowl aside, lay down again, pulled up the quilt, and turned over──out of sight is pure .

Xia Hao was startled, then chuckled, leaned over and kissed Xia Yan's hair, and then left lightly.
