Chapter No.16

Lian'er lived in the palace for a few days, and has already pestered Xiao Yun to visit almost the entire palace, except for the Empress Dowager and Concubine Yun, Xiao Yun followed him to play.

Although this Lian'er is similar to Liu'er, there are still differences, not as reserved and quiet as Liu'er.But Xiao Yun also thought that Liu'er would occasionally show some liveliness, but because of his status, he couldn't help being playful. After all, he was only sixteen or seventeen years old, so how could he be so quiet.

Lian'er was very familiar with Xiao Yun, clinging to his side during the day and sleeping beside him at night, curled up in his arms like a kitten.Xiao Yun wanted to repay all the tenderness owed to Liu Er to Lian Er, and treat him better and better.

"Lian'er, eat a grape." Xiao Yun peeled off the skin of the grape himself, and fed the crystal clear flesh into Lian'er's mouth.Lian'er didn't feel flattered at all, and accepted Xiao Yun's favor for her very naturally.

"Your Majesty, who lives in the yard with the blue hydrangeas? Why didn't you take me there?" Lian'er asked suddenly, which made Xiao Yun panic a little, "That's Concubine Yun's residence, a woman's. residence, so I didn’t take you there.”

"Concubine Yun, she is the emperor's wife." Seeing the disappointment in Lian'er's eyes, Xiao Yun immediately hugged him tightly, "Lian'er, please don't be angry, Concubine Yun was married when I was the prince. "

"You mean, if you had met me earlier, you wouldn't have married her?" Lian Er's question was very naive, but Xiao Yun didn't know how to answer it so naively. Afraid of seeing Lian Er's disappointed expression, he just Neng once again lied to him, "Yes, with you, I wouldn't marry her."

Lian'er nestled happily in Xiao Yun's arms, narrowed her eyes happily, and a sweet smile bloomed at the corner of her mouth.

The next day, Xiao Yun went to court early.Lian'er was holding a box of snacks and stood in Concubine Yun's yard.Hearing the servant girl's report, Concubine Yun frowned, and handed the prince she was holding to the nanny beside her.

She had long heard that the emperor had brought back a man who looked exactly like Liu'er, and she tried her best to suppress her emotions and not disturb her, after all, she had witnessed the pain of the emperor in the past six months.Now that she has found a replacement, she is also happy for Xiao Yun.It's just a male favorite. As Concubine Yun, she gave birth to a prince, so naturally she doesn't take him seriously.

I didn't expect this male favorite to come to me, I don't know what to worry about, I have a meeting for a while, see his appearance, and see if there is really someone who looks similar to Liu'er.

"Concubine Yun." Lian'er came in with the snacks in her hands, instead of kneeling down, she stood there and handed the snack box to Concubine Yun.

Concubine Yun took it over in a daze, her eyes still fixed on Lian'er's face, "Liu'er, are you Liu'er?"

"Concubine Yun always calls me Liu'er, I'm Lian'er, the emperor doesn't tell me who Liu'er is." After saying this, there was a hint of coquettish anger on her handsome face, making Concubine Yun even more confused.

Liu'er would never have such an expression, but if it wasn't for Liu'er, how could there be such similar people in this world.

"Who is this, the emperor's son?" Lian Er suddenly found the prince in the nurse's hand, snatched it and hugged it in her arms.

"Put down my son!" Seeing the prince running into Lian'er's arms, Concubine Yun suddenly panicked, she didn't know why this person who looked exactly like Liu'er appeared in front of her.For Liu'er, she has hatred and guilt in her heart, if Liu'er hadn't been tricked to send that bowl of soup, everything in the future would not be what it is now, and Liu'er would not die.

However, the face that was supposed to be dead suddenly appeared, how could Concubine Yun not panic, she ran over and wanted to snatch the prince away, in the panic, the prince dropped his hand and fell to the ground, crying loudly.

Now Lian'er was also stunned, Concubine Yun hugged the prince in great pain, "Prince Xuan, Physician Xuan!"

"Liu'er, you are too cruel, I am sorry for you, I framed you, but the emperor is not wrong, how could you treat him like this!" The crying of Concubine Yun and the crying of the prince were mixed together .Lian'er was frightened by the crying, and stood there, not knowing what to do.

When Xiao Yun went down to court, he heard that Lian'er was actually coming towards Concubine Yun's residence, so he hurried over and happened to see this scene.

"Enough, Lian'er, come out with me!" Xiao Yun's expression was unkind, Lian'er looked worriedly at the prince who was still crying, and followed Xiao Yun to leave sadly.

"What's going on, why are you going to Concubine Yun's place?" Xiao Yun just said a word, and Lian'er's tears had already flowed down, "Your Majesty, Lian'er was wrong, Lian'er made some snacks today, and the emperor didn't come back , I just wanted to find someone to taste it, so I went to Concubine Yun's place, and then..." Lian Er wiped the tears from her face, "Then I saw the prince, so small and so cute, I can't help it To hug, and then Concubine Lian ran over to hug, I thought she wanted to hug, so I let go, and then, I saw the prince fell to the ground."

"Your Majesty, it's all about Lian'er's fault. She shouldn't have gone to Concubine Yun's place. From now on, Lian'er will obediently stay in this yard and won't go anywhere." Lian'er sat beside Xiao Yun and buried her head in his arms. , Weeping non-stop.

Of course Xiao Yun didn't believe that Lian'er threw the prince to the ground on purpose, because he had no reason to do so. Although he was usually lively, he was a well-behaved child and would never do such vicious things.

"Don't cry, I don't blame you, but don't provoke Concubine Yun again, except her and the queen mother, you can go anywhere you want." Xiao Yun gently wiped Lian'er's tears, and kissed her gently. Red and swollen eyes from crying.

With tears still in her eyes, Lian'er burst into tears because of Xiao Yun's gentleness, but asked in doubt, "Why can't you go to the Empress Dowager?"

"Listen to me, there are some places that are not suitable for you to go." Although she knew that Lian'er was not Liu'er, the Queen Mother hated this face deeply. She had already ruined Concubine Lian and Liu'er. Ruined Lian Er.

"Well, then Lian'er won't go." Lian'er nodded obediently.

After that, Lian'er obediently stayed in her yard for two days, and on the third day, she couldn't help but wander around again.

Yushufang, Xiao Yun brought him here before, but there were many memorials piled up at that time, Lian'er didn't want to get close, just glanced at it casually.Today, without Xiao Yun by her side, Lian Er wandered around in the study.Fingers caressed the desk made of golden camphor wood, and his eyes stayed on the wall behind the desk case.A picture scroll was hung there. On the picture, Xiao Yun was riding on Tayun in high spirits, showing the domineering aura of the king everywhere.

Lian Er stretched out her hand to take down the painting scroll, held it in her hand and looked at it, Xiao Yun pushed the door in and saw Lian Er standing up at the table to look at the painting, smiled at him softly, "Why did you come to the study today? "

"Your Majesty, who painted this, is it the Emperor?" Lian Er smiled sweetly at Xiao Yun.

As he approached, Xiao Yun's expression suddenly changed, he saw clearly that what Lian'er was holding was actually the only thing Liu'er left him.

"Put it down, who told you to touch this!" Xiao Yun yelled, Lian'er's hands trembled in fright, and the scroll fell on the table, just in time to land on the ground ink.

Xiao Yun rushed forward and picked up the scroll, but the painting was still stained a lot.The ink smear covered half of the horse's body, Xiao Yun wanted to find something to wipe off the smudge, looked around, but looked back at the scroll in disappointment.There is nothing to erase this ink stain, after all, this painting was destroyed by myself.

Xiao Yun's hand holding the scroll trembled slightly, and after several tries, he hung the scroll back on the wall.Standing in front of the painting, Xiao Yun's gloomy expression was full of pain.

"I'm sorry Liu'er, I couldn't even keep the only thing you left behind." Xiao Yun's voice was choked with sobs. Liu'er must be blaming him for forgetting himself so quickly and finding Lian This replacement is back.

Liu Er must have been angry to destroy the painting she left behind to punish him.Thinking of this, Xiao Yun clenched his fists. He clearly knew that Lian'er was a fake, so why did he treat him like Liu'er and pamper him.

Why would I be so stupid that I would treat the substitute as Liu'er and love her. When Liu'er was alive, she had never been loved like this by me.Liu'er's soul in the sky, seeing that the person she is pampering and loving every day is another person, does not know how sad it will be.

The pain in his heart turned into anger, Xiao Yun turned around suddenly, and grabbed Lian Er's skirt, "I indulge you in everything, but you treat me like this, you can also move this painting!"

A sudden slap hit Lian'er on the face, Lian'er was sent flying out and fell to the ground, before she could recover, she was pulled up by Xiao Yun again, with another slap, Lian'er fell to the ground again On the ground, his forehead hit the table beside him, blood oozing out.

However, Xiao Yun didn't seem to see it, and kicked Lian Er's body fiercely. Lian Er curled up on the ground clutching her stomach, "It hurts..."

Xiao Yun, who was about to continue kicking, suddenly heard this sound, the raised foot couldn't fall down, Lian'er's image overlapped with Liu'er, and he thought of the wounded Liu'er in the dungeon again, Struggling to say the words, "My lord, save Liu'er, Liu'er is in pain."

The same tone, the same helplessness made Xiao Yun unable to do anything again.He closed his eyes in pain and took a deep breath.Turning around, I saw the painting scroll stained with ink, as if Liu'er was crying.

The pain of guilt towards Liu'er made Xiao Yun angry again, why did he take this Lian'er as Liu'er again, he is not Liu'er, he is not Liu'er, they can't be confused anymore, Liu'er will be sad will be sad.

He dragged Lian'er from the ground to the yard. Lian'er's thin clothing was worn away by the rough ground, and bloodstains were drawn on her tender skin.

Xiao Yun completely ignored the scars on Lian'er's body, found a rope, and hung him from a tree with his backhand, "Think about your own identity, don't do whatever you want just because you have this face!"

Xiao Yun left with grief and indignation, leaving only Lian'er hanging in mid-air, his arm was being pulled in pain like tearing, but he didn't cry out.His always gentle eyes were filled with sadness.

Without begging for mercy, without crying, Lian'er just hung there quietly.The noon sun was scorching hot on his body, and soon he became dizzy, and sweat dripped down his pale face.

It was so uncomfortable, Lian'er's body trembled slightly, her breathing became short of breath, and her mind gradually became blurred.Maybe, I'm going to die like this, maybe, I'm going to die like this...
