Reborn as King again

For three years, He Wenliu stayed in the cold palace for three full years. Except for the time when he first came here and was neglected by others, he lived a pretty good life. Of course, it cannot be compared with that in Qingluan Palace. It should be similar to that before entering the palace. Five years in Yiliu Temple.

In the cold palace, apart from occasionally tossing some flowers and plants, He Wenliu was in a daze most of the time, sitting in the yard when the weather was good, and returning to the house when the weather was cold.

When he was in a daze, the most thing He Wenliu thought about was "what if", if he hadn't entered the palace, if he hadn't met Li Mujing, would he not be in pain.

He Wenliu couldn't help fantasizing that in a life without Li Mujing, his children would be born in ordinary people's homes, Dan'er would grow up happily, Yun'er would not become stupid, and Li Ji would not go far away to die. His elder brother, He Wenyan, would not resign from office to save his life.As for himself, he will definitely meet someone who likes him, plant a yard full of peonies with him, spend a lifetime together in an ordinary life.

But fantasies are fantasies after all, and life goes on.

In fact, when He Wenliu learned that Li Ji was dead, his heart also died.He Wenliu couldn't accept this kind of life. He begged Li Mujing to kill him.But how did Li Mujing do it?Threatening Yun'er's life, threatening He Wenliu to live.This is not the first time that Li Mujing threatened him with his child's life. He Wenliu knew that Li Mujing would do what he said, so he could only hang his own life, not die.

For three years, He Wenliu didn't take a step out of the cold palace, his heart was still like water, he just had to wait, wait slowly, wait for Yun'er to grow up, and when she married a good son-in-law, he could let go of everything.The days passed like this day by day, until the end of autumn, an uninvited guest disturbed He Wenliu's peaceful life.

The sun was not bad that day, He Wenliu put on more clothes and came to the courtyard, as usual, Ding Ding sat on the stone table, looking at a certain place casually, but his mind had already drifted away to the sky.

Just when He Wenliu was in a daze, suddenly someone around him called him, "Ms. Wen Fei."

He Wenliu was startled for a moment, then turned around to look, and saw Xia Zhijie standing not far from him, greeting him respectfully.

There were few people in the cold palace, and it was cold in late autumn, so there was no one else in the courtyard except He Wenliu.

"What are you doing in Lenggong?" Although he was a little surprised, He Wenliu didn't care about Xia Zhijie's arrival, "If it's because I used you before, isn't it too late for you to pursue it now?"

We haven't seen each other for three years. Xia Zhijie has been thinking about He Wenliu all the time. In other words, since they were teenagers studying in the same academy, he must have cared about this Concubine Wen. "This minister is here to see you, Concubine Wen."

It's not that He Wenliu doesn't know Xia Zhijie's thoughts, his tone became colder, "What are you doing seeing me? I don't like being disturbed by others."

Xia Zhijie's face was slightly red, and he stammered, "Weichen...Weichen wants to take Concubine Wen out of the palace with you."

"Going out of the palace?" He Wenliu thought he heard it wrong, "Are you all right?"

Xia Zhijie naturally knew the meaning of He Wenliu's words, he quickly explained: "The emperor... the emperor is about to die, and there is chaos inside and outside the palace recently, otherwise the humble minister would not have come into the palace so easily to see you. When the emperor dies and the empress assists the new emperor to ascend the throne, he will not let you go."

die? !He Wenliu didn't react on the surface when he heard these two words, but asked softly: "The emperor is in good health, how could he be about to die?"

"It's a plague," Xia Zhijie told He Wenliu what happened in the palace. "The emperor accidentally contracted the plague. At first, the imperial doctors thought that the emperor was just infected with a cold, but when they realized it, rashes began to appear on the emperor. It is said that the emperor has already festered all over his body. I am afraid that he will not live long."

"I know." Plague, cold, rash, festering, He Wenliu grasped these key words, he stood up, saw the guests off and said: "You go back, I will pretend that you have never been here. "

"Concubine Wen!" Xia Zhijie knew that if He Wenliu stayed in the palace, he would definitely die! "Do you still want to keep the emperor's chastity?! You and the queen have always had a bad relationship. After the emperor dies, he will definitely settle accounts with you!"

"Empress?" Although he never asked about the affairs of the harem, He Wenliu still knew what he should know, "When the crown prince succeeds, I'm afraid that the queen will have no time to take care of this palace. He can't spare this palace, but the prince can't spare him either. "

"No! You don't understand. The situation inside and outside the palace is very critical now," Xia Zhijie said in a hurry. In order to make He Wenliu believe in himself, he gritted his teeth and simply told Zhou Ling and the Xia family about to force the palace. "The empress will not let the prince succeed, he plans to establish a new emperor..."

He Wenliu listened calmly, listening to Xia Zhijie tell everything, leaning his body slightly against the stone table, supporting it with his hands, trying not to tremble.After Xia Zhijie finished speaking, He Wenliu was silent for a long time before asking, "According to what you say, the Queen is bound to win?"

"Yes," Xia Zhijie nodded, thinking that He Wenliu understood the seriousness of the matter, "so in order to survive, you must leave. If you don't want to leave with Princess Yun'er, then...then I can think of a way .”

He Wenliu heard this, and said in embarrassment: "But I am a concubine, how can I leave the palace in a big way, it will arouse suspicion."

"It doesn't matter, Weichen has already arranged for you, no one knows that Weichen came to see you," Xia Zhijie said, and took out two tokens from his arms, which are tokens for entering and leaving the palace. One, "As long as you change into the clothes of the inner prisoner, you can leave with the humble minister."

"Really." He Wenliu stared at the token in Xia Zhijie's hand, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Okay, I am willing to go with you."

"Great." Xia Zhijie took a few steps forward excitedly, but He Wenliu subconsciously stepped back.Xia Zhijie also realized that he had overstepped, and quickly said: "Then Concubine Wen, please go into the house and change quickly, Wei Chen is waiting for you here, we have to hurry up while no one is watching."

"Okay, then you will wait." After He Wenliu finished speaking, he turned and walked towards his bedroom.

Xia Zhijie sat on the stone bench contentedly, his heart agitated, he was always uneasy when he came, he was afraid that He Wenliu would not agree, he was afraid that He Wenliu would think he was frivolous, but things went so smoothly, that person was willing to go with him!

He Xia Zhijie hadn't spoken a few words to He Wenliu from the beginning to the end, and he was even considered a stranger, but what did it matter?Even if He Wenliu has no feelings for him now, it may be a long time to come, and he can slowly influence him.

Just when Xia Zhijie was yearning for the future, he glanced at the ground inadvertently. Due to the sunlight, he saw a shadow approaching quietly on the ground. Throw it at yourself.

Fortunately, Xia Zhijie reacted in time, he was on one side, and there was a bang, and something fell on the stone table.Because Xia Zhijie didn't keep his balance when dodging, he fell to the ground violently. When he turned around, it was He Wenliu standing behind him!On the ground and on the stone table are fragments of vases.

"Concubine Wen, you..." Xia Zhijie couldn't believe his eyes, did He Wenliu want to hit himself with a vase?Why? !

At this time, He Wenliu was also pale and panting heavily. It was the first time he did such a thing, but he missed it.Xia Zhijie wanted to stand up, but He Wenliu was one step faster than him. He Wenliu picked up a fragment of a vase and immediately pressed it on Xia Zhijie's body. Before he could react, He Wenliu held the fragment and used the sharpest The place slashed across Xia Zhijie's neck fiercely!

Immediately, Xia Zhijie's blood spurted out, staining He Wenliu's palace uniform red.

Xia Zhijie who cut his throat couldn't survive at all, he struggled hard and wanted to ask He Wenliu why!But He Wenliu didn't give him a chance, because He Wenliu covered his mouth and let him make any sound.

Xia Zhijie was like this, staring at He Wenliu at the last moment of his life, seeing that his eyes changed from fear to fear, from fear to peace of mind, from peace of mind to indifference, but there was no guilt!No apologies!Not long after, Xia Zhijie's body stopped moving, his eyes opened angrily, and he couldn't rest in peace!

At this moment, Xiaoluzi and Xinyue came out when they heard the sound of something breaking inside the house. They were startled by the scene in the yard.Xinyue rushed forward and pulled He Wenliu away, "Concubine Wen, Concubine Wen, you are..."

He Wenliu stood up with Xinyue's support. In fact, he didn't want to kill anyone. He just wanted to knock Xia Zhijie unconscious with the vase, but who made Xia Zhijie avoid it?

"Little Luzi," He Wenliu said while panting, "you once told me that there is a dry well in a corner outside the cold palace, right?"

"Yes... yes." Xiaoluzi replied tremblingly.

"That's good." He Wenliu threw away the pieces of porcelain in his hand, and then ordered: "Little Lvzi, you and Ben Gong carry the body to the dry well and throw it away. Xinyue, you stay here, clean up the scene, and wipe off the blood. Lose."

"Concubine Wen, your hand!" Xinyue saw that He Wenliu's right hand was bleeding continuously, she grabbed He Wenliu's hand and spread it out, only to see a deep and long gash on the palm.

"It's okay," He Wenliu withdrew his hand, "Hurry up and do something, it will be bad if Aunt Wenmin and the others see it."

He Wenliu first asked Xiao Luzi to fetch a sheet to wrap Xia Zhijie's body so that no blood would drip on the ground when he lifted it.Then the two carried Xia Zhijie's body out of the gate of the cold palace, and came to the remote corner that Xiaoluzi said.Putting down the corpse first, He Wenliu searched Xia Zhijie's belt, found out the two exit tokens he had seen before, then threw the corpse into the dry well, and left with Xiaoluzi without looking back.

Back in the cold palace, Xinyue had already cleaned up the scene as quickly as possible.When the three of them returned to the house, Xinyue couldn't help asking: "Miss Concubine Wen, what happened? Is that person Xia Taifu? Why did he appear here?"

He Wenliu frowned, and didn't want to talk about it, "Don't ask too much, you can live if you know little." He paused, and said: "Little Luzi, go pick some stinky grass, and then boil it in the kettle." , Wait for the water to boil, wait another half an hour, then pour the water into the cup, and serve it to Ben Gong."

"Yes." Usually little green son is most afraid of losing his head, since the master said so, he will not ask more questions.Xiaoluzi immediately left the room and went to do what He Wenliu asked.

"Concubine Wen, you should bandage the wound first." Seeing three or four drops of blood dripping from the floor, Xinyue was very worried. Has her master ever suffered such an injury? !Before He Wenliu could say anything, Xinyue was already rummaging through boxes and cabinets looking for gauze.

He Wenliu didn't care about the injury on his hand at all, he said: "You can help me find two sets of inner eunuch costumes first."

"Yes Yes."

Xiaoluzi was cooking stinky grass, Xinyue was looking for clothes, He Wenliu went to the couch and sat down in a daze.He thought that after these three years, he had given up and given up on that ignorant and paranoid relationship, but when he heard that Li Mujing was in trouble, he didn't think through the series of actions he made.Only now did He Wenliu realize that he has never changed, and has always loved Li Mujing, deeply in love with him.At this moment, He Wenliu finally felt the pain in his palm. He looked at his palm, and gently scratched the deep wound with the fingers of his other hand.

The feeling of pain, the bleeding, he couldn't help laughing, He Wenliu, you are really a bitch.
