That morning, early in the morning, I saw the maids of the Yang Mansion running out in a hurry. Caiwei was already familiar with the journey. She walked in with a basin of hot water to serve me to wash, and looked out and said, "I don't know what I sent today."

These days, the emperor gave food here without missing a day, and even she was used to it.

I didn't say anything. After washing up, I sat in front of the dressing table and asked her to comb my hair. But today it seems a little different. At this time, everything has been delivered in, but now my hair has to be combed, but there has not been any movement.

Caiwei put a bun on my back and just put the bead hairpin on me. As soon as I put the bead hairpin in, I heard a loud noise outside. It seemed that more people came than usual. For some reason, I felt a sense of uneasiness and heard a loud knock at the door.

Caiwei smiled and whispered: "I'm sending something again."

I didn't agree, she had put down her comb and ran over and opened the door quickly.

As soon as she opened the door, she froze at the door and stopped making a sound.

I turned around and saw her looking at the people outside the door in amazement, her voice lowered a little: "Who are you?"

Yang Jinqiao's voice came from outside the door: "Caiwei, get out of here and let the empress in!"

Caiwei was shocked, immediately took several steps back, and turned to the side. My heart sank. I reached out and stood up slowly on the edge of the dressing table. Then I saw someone walking in outside the door.

The man was wearing a gorgeous but heavy robe, and the robe was winding on the ground, dragging long, as if all of them were embroidered by gold and silver threads, reflecting the sunlight outside the door, reflecting colorful light; in that light, the thin man slowly turned around, and his pale and thin face was cold, with almost no warm eyes, so dark that it seemed like a bottomless and waveless deep pool.

When I got into her eyes, I felt my whole body tremble for a moment, and subconsciously walked over slowly.

There were many people standing outside the door, guards, palace maids, and Yang Jinqiao, all holding their breath. At this moment, they didn't even dare to breathe out. Until they saw me walking to that person, the two of them looked at each other silently, but couldn't say a word. Yang Jinqiao finally called out softly: "Caiwei came out!"

"oh oh!"

This time Caiwei was very obedient. She probably felt the extraordinary identity of the visitor. Even Yang Jinqiao, as the eldest lady of this family, dared not speak easily, so she did not dare to delay and hurried out. Yang Jinqiao said carefully again: "Empress, I'll wait outside."

After saying that, she reached out to close the door.

There were sparse footsteps outside, and the people seemed to have retreated.

There were only two of us left in the room.

The sun was isolated on the other side of the door, and the room suddenly became dim. Only by seeing a faint sunlight cast in the gap between the window behind her, and a lot of dust flying inside.

Then, I looked into her eyes again.

At this moment, ripples finally appeared in the bottomless, waveless, deep pool-like eyes.

Seeing her like this, I finally couldn't say anything anymore, so I just slowly knelt down: "Queen!"

Standing in front of me was Chang Qing, the woman with the highest status in the world, but at this moment when I looked at her, I felt that her eyes were extremely haggard, and her whole body seemed to have been pulled away by time, and she was empty.

She looked at me quietly, and there was a flash of light in her eyes. At this time, she finally opened her red lips and said slowly-

"Even if I don't come, I'd rather not speak out?"

As soon as I heard her words, I felt like someone was punching hard in my chest. A muffled pain made it difficult for me to breathe. I only felt the tears surging in my eyes, almost falling tears, but I couldn't say anything, and I just said softly: "Queen..."

Her gorgeous skirt slowly appeared in front of me with a rolling curve of waves. At this time, a pair of cold and white hands reached out, holding my arms and slowly helped me up. I stood up and looked at her crying eyes, as if she could finally not hold on. She sighed and said softly: "I feel relieved if I know you are fine."

"Queen!"

I didn't expect that I would see Chang Qing so quickly.

She was more gentle but quiet than I imagined, and always had a cold woman who kept her from thousands of miles away. Now she seems to be the same as before, but she is even colder, as if she has become an ice cave. Time has not taken away her appearance, but it has also frozen her feelings and tenderness.

When she walked to the table with my hand and sat down slowly, my eyes were still a little red. Although she was a little emotional, she kept forcing herself to calm down. But the hand that was holding me was not let go, and the cold fingertips left a light red mark left when they streaked across the back of my hand.

"Empress..."

I was afraid that she would see it, so I reached out and covered the back of her hand.

After a long time, she finally said softly: "When did you arrive in the capital?"

"It's been a few days."

"Have you ever seen the Emperor?"

"That day, during the Yang Life Festival banquet, I was beside me and took a look."

She glanced at me: "The Emperor knows you are here."

I nodded silently.

After a moment of silence, I asked again: "How did the Empress know that I am in the Yang family?"

"These days, the Royal Kitchen has delivered things to the palace every day. I heard that it was delivered to the Yang Mansion. Although I heard that the eldest maid from the Yang family had appeared a while ago and there were people inside and outside, Yunpin told me that the meals delivered from the Royal Kitchen were all spicy and were personally told by the emperor, and Eunuch Yu would go and ask about it every day."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! As she said that, she seemed to sigh: "There is no one else who can make the emperor so concerned about it over the years."

“…”

I was silent and didn't say anything.

"But even so, I dare not believe it completely. After all, you paid such a great price to escape." Speaking of this, I couldn't help feeling my mood. The hand holding my hand gently used some force. Then I raised my head and looked at her: "How can the Queen be sure that I am here?"

"That day, Yang Jinyao entered the palace."

“…”

When I mentioned this, my heart couldn't help but move.

Chang Qing continued, "Although I don't have the heart to talk to her, and I always have Concubine Yun accompanied her, but when I heard her talk, I mentioned one of her 'sisters', who was very gentle and understanding. If it weren't for that 'sister', she said that she wouldn't understand many things."

“…”

"I think you are probably the only one who stays in Yang's mansion and makes the emperor worry. He is so gentle and considerate."

I lowered my head gently.

Unexpectedly, Yang Jinyao would rely on me and like me like this, but her unintentional words also made Chang Qing notice my existence.

"But I didn't expect that you would return to the capital, but you didn't give me a word."

When I heard her say this, I felt guilty. In fact, if I follow my past plans, even the Yang family members would not want to be alarmed. However, the things along the way were not under my control. Today, with the big deal of Pei Yuanhao, I almost went back to Beijing in the capital. Everyone in the officialdom knew about it.

But I didn't expect that this would hurt Chang Qing.

Maybe for me, she was a supporter and a friend in trouble, but I didn't know what I mean to her. In the harem where everyone was intriguing and had no warmth at all, maybe my feelings were more important to her than many things.

Thinking of this, I lowered my head and said with guilt: "I'm sorry."

She still looked at me: "At least, you should report me some peace."

“…I dare not.”

"Why?"

"Because, I am ashamed of the Empress."

As soon as I said this, I felt a spasm of her fingertips. I raised my head and saw that her face turned pale in an instant. For a moment, her expression was almost devastated.

But this is the pain that both her and I have to face.

I said softly: "I did pay a great price when I escaped, but the price I was most reluctant to pay was-"

Speaking of this, I looked at her lower abdomen.

There has been flattened there, and no one would have thought that she had looked like a big belly, and she had hoped to welcome her own children, but my escape, the fire, burned all her hopes.

Her face became more and more ugly.

After a while of silence, she said with some difficulty: "Don't mention that matter."

"Empress..."

"I said, don't mention it again!"

She spoke sternly, let go of my hand, stood up, turned around and walked to the window.

I also hurriedly stood up and walked slowly behind her, watching her thin and thin shoulders trembling constantly, as if I was suppressing something. I could almost feel some of her tears, and I could only flow in my heart.

At this moment, I didn't dare to say anything anymore, so I stood behind her and waited quietly.

It took her unknown how long she finally spoke, her voice with indescribable fatigue and fatigue, and she slowly said: "I have thought countless times that who should blame for that matter."

“…”

"Should you blame you? Liu Qinghan?"

“…”

"I also thought about hating you and hate him, but for some reason, I wanted to hate him, but I couldn't hold on."

“…”

"Later I thought, I couldn't hate you because I knew at all that I shouldn't blame you for this."

“…”

She sighed, turned her head to look at me, with a faint, almost ethereal smile on her face, and said, "Maybe, this child did not belong to me from the beginning, maybe it was right to say nothing. I was destined to have no children. This child should not appear in my life, and he will eventually return to where he should go."

When I heard her open-minded intentions, I felt more and more heartbroken and tears burst out from my eyes: "Empress..."
