Cui whipped her again and again, but she never heard the two of them begging for mercy. All the slaves who were beaten by her in the past would beg for mercy.

The more they don't beg for mercy, the harder the whip in their hands becomes.

Ye Yilan used her body to block him again, but her weak body could no longer hold up. Seeing that the empress fainted, Zi Ling shouted: "Empress——"

Angry eyes stared at her angrily, but she looked with disdain. She warned angrily: "Ms. Cui, if the emperor knows about it, he will definitely not spare you."

Looking at the scars on the empress' back, my trembling hands didn't dare to touch her at will, for fear of hurting her.

Does the emperor know?

Since she can come back, it means that the emperor has no interest in her.

"You are now sluts, and the emperor will never know." He put down the whip in his hand, walked to the well, picked up the bucket, smiled lightly, and poured the water from the bucket directly on the two of them. "Since he fainted.

, as soon as the water is poured, you should wake up."

"You——" The wounds on his body were soaked in water, and the pain on his body was like a heartache.

When the cold water was poured on Ye Yilan, she had a hint of consciousness, but she was still not fully awake.

His trembling body, his lips had already turned white.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Cui still couldn't wake up. She picked up the whip on the ground again and was about to swing it up when someone snatched it away. Before she could react, the whip hit her in the middle of the cheek, leaving a deep streak.

There were deep marks. He covered his face in pain and was so scared that he knelt on the ground and did not dare to make any sound.

"How can I allow you, my concubine, to trample on you?"

Murong Haochen fiercely held the whip in his hand, his angry eyes threatening to kill him. He threw the whip aside angrily.

"This slave is just doing things according to the rules here. I hope the emperor will spare my life." A frightened and trembling voice slowly came out.

She never thought that the emperor would appear at this time.

Seeing the emperor walking to Chen Zhaoyi's side, his trembling body was extremely flustered, and his hands supporting the ground were trembling even more seriously.

Seeing that her whole body was wet and trembling, all his thoughts were on her at this moment. He held her body in his arms and murmured to himself with his moving lips: "It hurts, it hurts..."

"

Seeing her frowning and crying out in pain, he didn't dare to hold her body very hard.

In the Chenlan Palace, both of them were saying some angry words, and why did he comply with her and forget that she was just saying something for him. It was obviously a temptation, but he did it again.

As soon as he walked into the laundry department, he saw her lying on the ground. Her face was no longer what it used to be, and she was so pale that it made people extremely distressed. Her gentle eyes were always the same as when she left this morning.

His hot lips pecked her white lips.

Feiyu saw the situation and immediately helped Ziling up, but she also had wounds on her body. She had never suffered such an injury since she was a child. She looked at the humble servant kneeling on the ground with hateful eyes.

Zi Ling looked at Cui's family today, snorted with disdain in amusement, and reported to the emperor: "Your Majesty, it was Cui's unreasonable behavior first. The empress has suffered a lot of grievances in the past few days, and it was all her fault."

Hearing this, I felt guilty for a moment. I pointed a trembling finger at her: "How can you, a slave, wrongly accuse me?"

"presumptuous."

Fei Yu's voice made Cui so frightened that she didn't dare to raise her eyes.

"Zi Ling is the person in front of the Emperor. You are the one doing the following."

How come she didn't know that the slave was the one in front of the emperor. Now, both of them have been offended, I'm afraid...

"Feiyu, it's up to you to handle this matter."

He always had her in his eyes, reaching out to wipe away the drops of water on his face. His eyes were full of doting.

"I don't want to stain Chen Zhaoyi with blood."

In that game of "Chen Zhaoyi", every word was very serious. He just wanted to let them know that no matter what her status was, she was his concubine. He could not allow anyone to bully her.

Originally, he wanted to kill the man himself. He swore to Lan'er that he would kill anyone who dared to bully her. But she didn't want her hands to be stained with blood, so she had to let Feiyu do it. After all, she was afraid of seeing him.

to blood.

If he had been more ruthless, he would have killed this person.

"Yes, I will do it immediately."

"Your Majesty, this slave is afraid. I hope Your Majesty will spare this slave's life."

Hearing this, she was so frightened that she crawled to the emperor's feet, but no matter how she begged for mercy, the emperor passed by her with Chen Zhaoyi in his arms.

No wonder people in the palace have been spreading rumors that the emperor is very fond of this Chen Zhaoyi. Now, she realized. This love can be so ruthless that everything in his eyes belongs to her alone.

She sacrificed her life for others, but she died today.

I once promised that I would keep my white head for the rest of my life, and sleep alone for the rest of my life.

Traveling through the world of mortals in this life, a beautiful scroll of ink painting appears.

The floating life is like a dream for ten years, and the flowing water returns to dust in an instant.

The dead wood is stained and it is still spring, and the phoenix is ​​sitting on the phoenix tree and the king is thinking of you.

I have been missing each other for hundreds of years, and I only hope to stay together in this life.

"This is what I wrote when I had nothing to do."

This poem was accidentally discovered on the empress' body and was handed over to the emperor. However, seeing that the emperor had been immersed in it, he did not dare to disturb it any more.

Nothing to do? If you really have nothing to do, how could you be so sad?

"The phoenix dwells in the phoenix tree, and you dwell in my heart."

"Fengqi Wutong Jun Nianqing"; this is not the meaning of this sentence.

He raised his eyes and saw Caifeng with a puzzled look on his face, and asked with a smile: "What? You have served Chen Zhaoyi for many years, but you don't understand this?"

"It's not that I don't understand, it's just that when the empress first wrote a poem, she also said this. She also said..."

She has been with the empress for many years, and naturally she has learned a lot. She still doesn't understand those literate words. Sometimes, after listening to the empress explain in detail, she understands the meaning of those words.

Seeing her hesitating like this, I was extremely curious as to what exactly she said.

He looked at the sleeping person in the bed and couldn't help but reveal an affectionate smile: "What else did you say?"

"Your heart is not where you live, but my tong is home."

If your heart is not with me, where is my heart?

What she said made her feel like talking about herself. A secret smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and then slowly dissipated.

But what exactly does she mean by her words?

"I have been with you since I was a child, and I have never been like that night. I seem to have changed and become less talkative. Instead, I am alone, talking to myself."

Caifeng has been following her for the longest time, so he naturally knows her temper all along. She is indeed right, Lan'er has indeed changed, and she has her own independent thoughts in her mind, which is why she is what she is now.

But why, I should be happy about this, but I shouldn't be happy. I still like her when she didn't have distracting thoughts in the past.

He glanced at Caifeng and warned, "Go down and take care of Ziling first."

"Yes, I will resign now."

Putting the paper in his hand on his waist, he walked forward gently, lifted the curtain and looked at the expressionless face. When he reached out and wanted to touch her, he hesitated.

Does she still hate herself in her heart at this moment? She said such harsh words this morning, so she must hate herself very much. But this is okay, both of us should be calmer, and maybe everything will pass.

Just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly reached out a hand and grabbed his wrist tightly and wouldn't let go. Seeing her mumbling to herself, he leaned down and listened to her weak murmurs.

"Haochen, Haochen, please don't go, don't go..."

Don't leave?

Kissing her forehead deeply, he chuckled and said, "I won't leave, would you like me to stay with you?"

In the past, he would have accompanied her, but now...

He grabbed her hand and was about to let go of it, but what came to mind was the promise he made. He said that he would not let go of her hand, but would hold it firmly. He didn't want to break his promise,

It's time for them to see everything clearly. But after all, they still can't let go of her.

He could feel the strength of his wrist, and his weak body had the strength to hold on to him.

Looking at her, the corner of his mouth could not help but reveal a faint smile, slightly raised.

"I will give you whatever you want." Lying next to her, he held her in his arms with gentle movements and whispered into her ear. "I will even give you the position of queen."

."

One word is worth a thousand words.

next day

'In your heart, do you hate me so much?';

He suddenly opened his eyes, his heart was beating in confusion, and he still couldn't calm down.

For some reason, she actually dreamed of this sentence in her dream. From beginning to end, she had never hated Murong Haochen.

The dull pain in the wound gradually began to ache. As soon as he exerted force with his hands, he noticed the person beside him. He subconsciously pulled his hands away and immediately stood up from his arms. He lowered his eyes and did not dare to look into his eyes: "How could the emperor do this?"

..."
