Short Story: Rouge Buckle

Author:Fusheng (test)

In the silent deep palace, there is one of the most secluded places. It was overgrown with weeds for many years, cold and damp, and there were incessant cries of resentment at night, which made people wonder if it was a lonely female ghost in the old death palace.

This place is the cold palace where the women in the palace talk about discoloration.

In the seventh year of Tiansheng, Empress Sikong of the Zhou Dynasty was deposed and sent to the Cold Palace.

"The Emperor... emperor...... The concubines really did not kill The Concubine..." Empress Sikong was disheveled, her face was miserable, she had long lost her former majesty and honor, and her eyes were full of sorrow.

For a month after that, empress Sikong stopped speaking, and every day she just stared blankly into the void of air. Soon, she described herself as gaunt and thin.

"Emperor, have you really forgotten the promise you made to me that year?" Sometimes, it is inevitable that after the abolition, it will be muttered to itself, followed by a burst of laughter, and after a while, it will be in a daze.

In the third month, there was suddenly a new little palace girl Rouge in the cold palace. Rouge has a pair of bright and cool eyes like the deep water of the cold pool, faint eyebrows, but unfortunately the small half of the face is red marks, some terrible. It is said that she was also an outstanding beauty when she was elected to the palace, but one day she accidentally fell in the imperial garden and ruined her face, and was sent to this cold palace.

Time is like a white colt passing through the gap, spring to autumn, another year.

The Queen and Rouge were basking in the sun in the courtyard, but a verdant lady entered the desolate courtyard. Along with the sound of her footsteps, there was a faint jingle that was almost inaudible.

As if hearing the noise, the queen suddenly turned her head toward the people.

Above the waist of the big red brocade, there is a small rouge box hanging from the brocade, and under the rouge box, in addition to the two exquisite pearls, there are two small golden bells.

jingling...... jingling......

Empress Sikong suddenly felt that her breathing had become extremely difficult, and she grabbed her neckline fiercely, emitting a terrible cry from the deepest part of her throat.

"Lady! Lady! Empress Sikong took several steps backwards and almost overturned the tea table, but soon she let out a strange laugh again, "Turns out you are not dead!" Hahahahaha..."

The beauty who had mistakenly entered the cold palace raised her eyebrows slightly, and at the same time stopped the steps that were originally moving forward.

"Concubine Rong, let's get out of here quickly." The eunuch on the side said in a low voice, "I am afraid that this ruined queen is a crazy demon..."

A flock of birds and finches that landed on the dead branches was also startled by the continuous strange laughter, and all of them flew into the clouds.

Drift away.

There was also some foggy early in the morning, the palace maid Rouge carried the basin of water, pushed the door and entered the abandoned palace.

"Niangniang, the slave maid has already inquired clearly, and the one who wore the rouge buckle on her waist a few days ago was the most favored concubine of the emperor in the past six months." Rouge freshens up the wasted Sikong clan while paying tribute.

However, Sikong Shi did not react much, as if he was completely immersed in his own thoughts.

? After freshening up, Rouge tentatively asked, "If Niangniang is fine, the slave will retire first..."

But before Rouge could lift the basin of face wash, her hand was tightly grasped by Sikong. Then, Sikong Shi stood up and pressed Rouge's entire head into the basin of face wash with his other hand. After a while, Sikong pulled rouge out of the water with force, and reached out to tear a red-scarred face.

Rouge couldn't help screaming.

But after being washed by water, that delicate face really looked very different from the previous gray-headed earth face. The eyes appear brighter and larger, and the skin on the face is whiter and more crystal clear, which is really the bottom of a stunning beauty.

Unfortunately, the red mark is still a terrible existence.

"It turns out that this scar is real." Sikong Shi let go of his hand and said lightly.

"What does Niangniang mean?" The slave did not understand. Rouge covered her face, but her heart was shocked.

"If Hongu is not mistaken, you deliberately made your face flower because you did not want to be chosen to be by the emperor's side." Sikong wiped his hands dry with a handkerchief, "You thought you would be sent out of the palace, but you didn't expect it, but you were driven to this cold palace." ”

"Niangniang..." Rouge knelt down, "the slave does not dare." ”

"Would you like to do something for the palace?" The expression on Sikong's face became serious, "Although you have disfigured your appearance, with the knowledge of the emperor in this palace, you still have a chance to gamble." ”

Sikong Couldn't help but glance at Rouge's eyes again, such a beautiful look, but it was rare. At that time, the emperor praised the eyes of Lady Shufei, which showed that these eyes were a chip.

Rouge didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere, but her heart was resistant: "The slave maid is willing to wait for the lady for life." ”

"Hongu doesn't need you to wait!" Sikong Clan didn't seem to hear Rouge's words at all, and some delirious gibberish began to speak, "Hongu wants you to wait by the emperor's side... As long as you can get rid of Shufei for Hongu, hongu will give you whatever you want! Do you want to go out of the palace? As soon as this matter is over, the palace will send you out of the palace for the elderly..."

"Niangniang, Lady Niangniang is long dead..." Rouge snorted.

"No! I saw her a few days ago in the Japanese Palace! It's her! Hongu will not admit mistakes! She's still wearing that rouge button! jingling...... Ding-dong..." Sikong's eyes were a little ethereal, as if immersed in her own thoughts, but soon, her eyes became sharp again, "She is definitely a Lady Lady!" She has come to avenge King Qi! She's going to kill the Emperor! ”

Rouge cried bitterly and knelt down: "The slave maid is immoral and incompetent, and her appearance is ugly, please ask the lady to let the slave maid go..."

"Go down." Sikong suddenly lowered his eyes and waved at Rouge.

Rouge seemed to have received a general amnesty, and hurriedly got up and walked out, afraid that Sikong Clan would change his mind again. What she didn't notice was that the moment she stepped out of the door, the corner of Sikong's mouth seemed to faintly float a smile, but that smile quickly disappeared, as if it had never happened.

My headache was cracking and my body was sore. When Rouge woke up, her heart was cold, and she quickly looked around.

"You're awake." A man in a white brocade robe was standing by the bed, looking at Rouge with an extremely playful look. Long figure, deep eyebrows, and the thinnest lips in the world.

Rouge sat up in some panic, and she quickly felt that her body shrunk in the quilt was completely naked, and even in this struggle, her crisp breasts were half exposed, and the spring light was suddenly released. She quickly grabbed the quilt with her hand and draped it over her chest.

"Slave... The slave had seen the emperor. Although he knew that this was not in line with etiquette, Rouge still said in a low voice.

The man in the white brocade robe was about to drink tea, but was startled by this shout. He smiled deeply and said in an extremely cold tone to the ashamed woman on the bed, "Why bother?" Last night, what part of your body was not seen? ”

There were crystalline tears sliding from the corners of Rouge's eyes, such a humiliation that she could not bear to think of.

"There are no outsiders here, no need to pretend to be miserable!" say! Who did you buy into the wine of Yuan? How did you get into the palace of the Fallen? The Zhou Dynasty Emperor Wan Qianning suddenly rushed up and strangled Rouge's neck deadly. He hated people's unscrupulous means the most in his life! Hate even more the shameless woman who wants to climb the dragon and phoenix!

Rouge didn't know how to answer, nor did she dare to answer. She only vaguely remembered that she seemed to have drunk a bowl of japonica rice porridge given by Empress Sikong and passed out, unconscious.

Wan Qianning stared at the woman in front of her who was almost strangled to death by herself, she had a red mark on her face, but he didn't think she was obstructing her eyes, and even couldn't help but feel that this woman had a strange temperament, forcing him to look at her a few more times.

Eyes skimmed over her half-concealed body nakedly, and finally landed on her face. He finally found that what attracted his eyes was the eyes that were as cold as the deep water of the cold pool. That look, it was as if... Where to see the general.

"What's your name?" Wan Qianning's heart moved, and he unconsciously released his hand.

"Cough cough... Back to the emperor's words, cough cough... slave...... The slave's name is Rouge. Rouge touched his neck with his hand, and it took half a day to say a complete sentence.

Wan Qianning did not ask any more questions, but went to the table and sat down, calmly holding up the teacup.

Come-- Wan Qianning didn't even raise his eyelids, but his tone was cold and bone-chilling, Drag this out and beat her to death! ”

Soon a few expressionless little eunuchs stepped forward and held out their cold hands to grab Rouge's hand and drag it out. Naked Rouge was shy and angry, and the tears couldn't stop falling.

But those emotionless eunuchs would never pity Xiang Xiangyu, and they directly dragged Rouge out of the quilt and fell fiercely to the ground.

"Emperor..." Rouge bit her lip deadly, she had been forced into this desperate road by the Queen! If she wants to survive, she can only rely on herself! She barely had time to think anymore, so she had to shout loudly, "Emperor, Lady Shufei is not dead!" The slave maid knows where Lady Shu is! ”

"Stop!" Wan Qianning put down his teacup, and his eyes became more cold, "What do you say!" You repeat! ”

"Lady... Lady She wasn't dead! Rouge was almost desperate, "If the Emperor still wants to see Concubine Shu, please ask the Emperor to spare the slave's life..."

Before Wan Qianning could answer, he saw a small eunuch hurried into the palace.

"Emperor, Concubine Rong accidentally fell while admiring the flowers in the royal garden, although the injury was not serious, but Niangniang cried and made trouble, saying that she wanted to see the emperor..." The little eunuch reported.

"Got it." Wan Qianning frowned, and then glanced at the on the ground, Come on, first lock up this bitch! Without a word, he stopped looking at Rouge and hurried out of the palace.

It seemed that compared to the unsure Concubine Shu, the most beautiful Concubine Rong in the harem today was what Wan Qianning really remembered in her heart.

Rouge couldn't help but smile bitterly from the corner of her mouth.

In the cold, damp dungeon, Rouge, wearing only a thin blasphemous coat, curled up in a tuft of dry grass, shivering. Crystal clear tears dripped down on the ground, and a snaking stream of blood flowed down her legs.

Before being imprisoned in the dungeon, a pale old eunuch poured her a large bowl of bitter abortion pills. After a while, two fierce eunuchs with fleshy faces grabbed her limbs to death, and before Rouge could react to what was going on, she felt her lower body being poked in by a long brush of hair, brushing several times fiercely, and the biting cold water washed Rouge's body.

This is a cruel method that is secretly kept secret in the palace, specifically to deal with those who have been favored by the emperor but do not want to keep seeds.

The feeling of pain made Rouge's whole body spasm, and she felt her skin and flesh tear apart piece by piece. At that moment, she felt as if she had descended into a torture hell that would never be born again. She didn't even have time to yell before she passed out.

When I woke up, it was pitch black all around, and all I heard was what appeared to be the sound of rats crawling around.

I don't know how long later, some delirious Rouge seemed to hear faintly small human voices coming from afar. Gradually, a flame came over, and soon Rouge saw a large group of people walking to the door of his cell, and the noble lady who was the leader was dressed in a big red palace dress, and it was the jingling rouge buckle around her waist.

"Open the cell door!" Concubine Rong couldn't help but cover her nose and mouth, and her face was a disgusted expression, "Let Hongu see what kind of fox charmer he is, so bold!" ”

Rouge held her legs tighter, and her body couldn't help but tremble.

A pair of embroidered shoes depicting a golden phoenix stopped in front of Rouge.

"Light the lamp!" Concubine Rong scolded angrily.

Caught off guard, he kicked his head in Rouge's face. She fell to the ground again, and the fiery pain coming from her lower body made her powerless to resist and lie on the ground like a dead body. The foot that wore the embroidered shoes depicting the golden phoenix stepped Rouge's face again, and then a burst of heat approached her face.

"Sigh, full of carmine, it was born so charming!" Concubine Rong's tone was full of sarcasm, "Just save your strength, you don't need hongu to do it yourself..."

"Niangniang..." A palace maid rushed in at this moment, clinging to Concubine Rong's ear and saying a bunch of things, while Concubine Rong's face became more and more ugly.

"Go—" Concubine Rong stopped talking nonsense, didn't look at Rouge again, turned around and hurriedly disappeared into the darkness with her servants.

Rouge felt muddy again, her mouth was so dry that it was about to crack, she only felt that her eyes were black, and she passed out again.

When I woke up again, I found myself in a clean change of clothes and lying on a soft and warm bed. It seemed that the pain in his body was getting better, and there was still a trace of medicinal incense in the room.

"Can you say it now?" Wan Qianning seemed to perceive that she had woken up, staring coldly at her face, "Say! Where is Lady Shufei? ”

Rouge did not answer, and she struggled to get up from the bed, making a gesture to get out of bed.

"What are you doing?" Wan Qianning hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her thin shoulder hard, "Where are you going!" ”

"The slave maid is a palace maid who serves in the cold palace, and naturally returns to the cold palace." Rouge pushed Wan Qianning's hand away weakly and stumbled toward the door.

"Stop!" Wan Qianningqiang suppressed his anger, "You haven't told Shufei where Shufei is!" ”

"Doesn't the emperor know?" Rouge suddenly sneered, "Lady Shufei died more than a year ago. ”

"You..." Wan Qianning didn't expect to be played by this little maid, he couldn't help but put his hands on the neck of the weak woman in front of him, he suddenly forgot that this woman had just escaped from death, and was in a coma for three days and three nights before waking up, "You said she wasn't dead!" ”

"Pinch... Kill me! Rouge did not escape his frightening gaze this time, "Strangle... finish...... I, you will never see Lady Shufei..."

Sure enough, her neck was relaxed, and Wan Qianning looked at her cold eyes as deep as water and let go of her clamps.

Rouge smiled faintly and dragged her waddling steps outside. Her shadow lingered in Wan Qianning's heart for a long time.

Three days later.

The thick and dull door of the Cold Palace was pushed open, the bright sunlight poured in, and a figure stood in the brilliant sunshine, loudly reading the emperor's will.

“...... Gongren Rouge, Virtuous Shude, Specially Granted Fengzheng Erpin Nobleman..."

For a month after Rouge was made a nobleman, Emperor Wan Qianning stayed overnight in her palace.

There had long been a lot of discussion in the palace, saying that Rouge was cultivated by fox demons, and I didn't know what means I had played, but I could keep the emperor's heart for a long time. Compared with the Concubine Rong who had received countless long en, it was really impossible to see what the emperor was obsessed with this ugly woman.

Only Rouge herself knew that although Wan Qianning stayed by her side every day, she didn't say a word to her. And every night in bed, he treated her rudely, without any warmth to speak of. It's not so much pampering as venting.

"As long as you don't tell Princess Shufei's whereabouts for a day, you won't let you go for a day." Wan Qianning stared at the woman in front of him with hatred that didn't seem to have any joy or sorrow, he had never been so patient with a woman, he almost couldn't figure out whether he wanted to know the whereabouts of Lady Shufei or whether he wanted to see through what the woman in front of him was thinking!

On weekdays, she also gave a lot of gold and silver jewelry, Aya luo satin, but she did not look at it more. Since it is not for money, is it ridiculous that it is for love? Wan Qianning did not believe it.

"Does the Emperor really love Concubine Shu?" The dark eyes that were as full of water looked at Wan Qianning coldly, "Concubine Kechen heard that the person Shufei loves is the King of Qi..."

Snap—a red mark fell on her pale cheeks and soon swollen up.

Wan Qianning slapped Rouge hard. And Rouge quickly noticed that his hand was slightly trembling.

"Don't think that Yuan will not kill you—" Wan Qianning said a heavy sentence, dropped the rouge, and walked away without turning his head.

Rouge caressed her cheek, and a smile rose from the corner of her mouth. She deliberately and cruelly poked through Wan Qianning's scars, deliberately embarrassing him and making him miserable.

But she also remembered the promise she had made that if she wanted to leave this terrible deep palace, she would first get rid of Concubine Rong.

Rouge ping withdrew from the servants, and one of them went to the royal garden.

In the cloister of the Royal Garden, a beautiful woman sat by the pool, in a daze. Her thoughts drifted away with the ripples of water...

At that time, Lady Shufei also liked to visit this cloister the most, and the first time she saw Wan Qianhe, the King of Qi, after entering the palace, was in this corridor.

The weather was very good that day, Lady Shufei was wearing a lake green shirt, and a pair of smart eyes were the most attractive. She ran happily through the cloister and tugged at the sleeve of Wan Qianhe, the King of Qi: "Brother Wan Qian..."

Wan Qianhe frowned, but when he looked back, he was stunned, and then asked somewhat impatiently, "Who are you?" ”

"You don't remember me?" Lady Shufei skimmed her lips, "I am Fu Yue!" A month ago, we saw it in the Gui Lou in Beijing. You said we'd see each other again, did you forget? ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Wan Qianhe's mouth, and he nodded and said, "Yes, of course I remember." ”

Wan Qianhe, the King of Qi, was the elder brother of Wan Qianning, gentle and kind, and was a very close person. He lost to Wan Qianning in the battle for the throne that year, but he never complained, but instead defended Wan Qianning everywhere, bowed down to the Zhou Dynasty, and established many outstanding achievements.

After that, Empress Sikong often saw the two chatting in the imperial garden, but they were also full of affection and courtesy. But when Sikong Saw Lady Shufei's eyes glow as she looked at Wan Qianhe, she knew that the relationship between them was definitely not so simple.

Empress Sikong saw everything that had happened but did not move, because she was waiting for an opportunity, a perfect opportunity to get rid of Lady Shufei.

"Niangniang seems to be thinking of the deceased?" Rouge walked slowly into the cloister and saw Concubine Rong sitting by the water's edge.

A big red brocade dress with a small rouge box tied around her waist, and when the wind blows, there is a slight clanging sound.

"I don't have to worry about my sister about this palace." Concubine Rong suddenly changed her face and stood up indifferently, "I heard that my sister Rong's favor is flourishing, so let's enjoy it, or which emperor likes which one lacks arms and legs, it is unknown." When the words fell, Concubine Rong walked away without looking back.

Only the rouge buckle still clanged, all the way with her steps. Rouge only saw that Concubine Rong walk out of the cloister, but suddenly her feet were unstable, and she fell to the ground violently.

Concubine Rong was pregnant with a dragon species.

The news soon spread throughout the palace, and the palace was full of jubilation. Ever since Princess Shufei was pregnant with the emperor's child but unfortunately miscarried, there has been no good news in the palace. Wan Qianning was naturally extremely excited, he was nearly thirty years old, but he still had no heirs, so he stayed in Concubine Rong's palace every day.

There was no shortage of gossip in the harem, and soon many palace people were happy to say that the ugly Ning Gui was going to fall out of favor.

"Hongu certainly didn't look at the wrong person." In the silent and dark cold palace, the Ruined Sikong Clan smiled faintly.

"Niangniang sent someone to summon a slave maid, wouldn't she just praise the slave maid?" Maybe it had been too long since she had returned to this cold and gloomy palace, and Rouge felt that her eyes were a little uncomfortable, but in front of the abolition, she still called herself a "slave".

"You're so clever, why don't you take advantage of that Concubine Rong's pregnancy now..." Sikong Shi paused before continuing, "Get rid of her and the evil seeds in her belly!" She quickly took a vial from her arms and handed it to Rouge. It was a bottle of blood-sealed throat poison, as long as you accidentally ate a drop, you would return to the sky and lack of skills, and it would be difficult to survive.

Rouge smiled, "Niangniang wants to get rid of Concubine Rong so much, are you really sure that she is the Concubine who wants to seek revenge on the Emperor?" Or is there something else to plan? Everyone knows that Lady Shufei has died of incense, and the emperor even re-examined her coffin, and the body is intact..."

"Bastard!" Sikong Clan suddenly became angry, "Hongu said that she was Shufei and she was Shufei!" ”

"Why did Niangniang say that she was a Lady Concubine?" Rouge asked rhetorically.

"That rouge buckle!" Sikong Replied in a loud voice, "Hongu knows it, it is a promise gift from King Qi to Concubine Shu!" It was a rouge box personally selected by King Qi, and he personally made a beaded bell with a string of rope. There can't be a second person in this world who has that thing except Lady Shufei! Moreover, the hometown of Lady Shufei's mother... There is a secret art that can change people's faces... Although that Concubine Rong was only five or six points similar to the Shufei of that year, Hongu could also be sure that she was Shufei without a doubt! ”

Rouge suddenly shivered.

Changing faces... This kind of jianghu magic that only exists in ghost novels actually exists in the world.

"After you kill Concubine Rong, bring the rouge buckle to see the palace, and the palace will let you out of the palace."

Rouge no longer spoke, just carefully hid the bottle of poison, and quietly left the silent cold palace.

In fact, for the legend of Shufei and the Qi King Wan Qianhe, Rouge also knows a little bit. Although Wan Qianning issued a ban in the harem, he could not stop those criticisms.

Princess Shu had already seen Wan Qianhe, the King of Qi, long before she was elected to the palace.

It was the Shangyuan Festival, and the Fu Yue girl in the waiting girl sneaked out of the house without even bringing a little girl, wanting to join in the fun to see the lanterns. Who knew that he had lost his way, stumbled more and more and went around into a dark alley.

Then he crashed into the arms of a man, whose arms were thick and warm, and there was a good smell of incense on his body. But he covered most of his face with a black bucket hat, revealing only a thin bend of lips.

"Girl, it's dark at night, you have to be more careful." The man lowered his voice and supported Fu Yue, who almost fell.

Fu Yue looked at the man in front of him with some curiosity, he was dressed in a black riding suit, and he was still holding a sword in his hand, and the handle of the sword was set with a big red gem, shining in the night.

"You... Are you a hero who walks the streets? Fu Yue asked slightly curiously.

“...... Sort of. The man was a little crying and laughing.

"Where are you going?"

"Drink."

"Can you take me with you?"

"This... Girl you are still... Hey, girl, why are you snatching my sword! ”

That night, they sat in the most prosperous restaurant in the capital, drinking and admiring the lively night outside the window. The man didn't talk much, only let Fu Yue call him Wan Qian.

Later, on the way home, Wan Qian met a hawker who was selling along the way. Wan Qian bought a rouge box, two brocades, a few glass beads, and two small golden bells. These things seemed to have a life in Wan Qian's hands, and a few dazzling strokes seemed to be a trick, and a delicate rouge buckle was ready.

"To you, we will have a chance to see you again in the future." Wan Qian left a word, and hurried into the night.

However, not long after, Fu Yue was sent to the palace by her father, who was a high-ranking official, and the emperor was infinitely gracious to her and gave her the title of Shufei, but Shufei's heart was not on the emperor. That day she was idly going to visit the Royal Garden, when suddenly a red star flashed in her eyes, and when she looked closely, she saw a man in a green robe walking through the cloister, and it was the redstone sword that was worn around his waist.

His thin lips, broad shoulders, slender fingers.

He is Wan Qian.

Although the evening breeze is slightly cool, the weather is still hot.

Wan Qianning took only a small eunuch and hurried into Rouge's inner chamber.

Rouge was already asleep, her pale forehead dripping with fine beads of sweat, and a few strands of black hair were wet on her sideburns. Wan Qianning gently reached out and gently stroked it for her. This stroke, but reluctant to let go, fingertips gently rubbed on her skin.

Wan Qianning soon found that there were still some fine white scars faintly visible in rouge's hairline. He couldn't help but move inside and sighed. I don't know how much suffering this woman who can't always see through has suffered.

Although she was asleep, Rouge's brow was still wrinkled, and a pair of hands were tightly grasping the clothes on her chest, as if hiding something extremely important in her heart. Wan Qianning couldn't help but move again in his heart, this feeling... It was as if he was facing The Lady of the Year, leaving him entangled and worried about his stomach.

But when Rouge woke up again, he collected his pity eyes and said rather coldly, "If you are afraid of heat, you will move to the side hall with you, where there are green willows and ice cellars to drive away heat." ”

"Partial temple?" Rouge couldn't help but take out a handkerchief from his sleeve and reach out to wipe the sweat from his forehead for Wan Qianning, "The Emperor's partial hall has not always allowed outsiders to go..."

"I said I was going to go!" Wan Qianning was not troubled by a moment and interrupted Rouge's words. This was a great grace, a supreme grace that no one in the harem had ever enjoyed except the lady of the year. Unfortunately, in the heart of Lady Shufei at that time, there was another person living. Wan Qianning couldn't help but frown, this ugly concubine with red marks on her face didn't know when in his heart she would be able to compare with his lady concubine...

Rouge did not argue, but she calmly got up and poured tea for Wan Qianning.

"Tomorrow you're going to go to the paddock autumn hunt, do you want to go with you?" Wan Qianning eased his tone before he spoke again.

"The only person who is qualified to accompany the emperor is Concubine Rong, who is pregnant with a dragon species, right?" Rouge sneered, "A lowly ugly woman like me..."

"You're not ugly!" Wan Qianning suddenly became excited and grabbed Rouge's arm fiercely.

"Emperor..." Rouge had never seen Wan Qianning so excited, and was a little frightened for a moment.

"I like you, I like you!" Wan Qianning shook Rouge's shoulder vigorously, and his eyes seemed to be crazy, "Fu Yue, Fu Yue... Do you know! I only like you! ”

Rouge, as if stung by something, pushed Wan Qianning away fiercely.

"Emperor, concubines are not Fu Yue." She said coldly, "The concubines have been unwell recently, and I am afraid that they will not be able to accompany the emperor to the autumn hunt, and they also ask the emperor to forgive their sins." ”

On the second day, the weather was clear.

"Niangniang, this blood swallow was sent by Ning Guiren." A palace maid held a brocade box and stood in front of Concubine Rong.

"Throw it out!" Concubine Rong said angrily, "Who knows if that fox spirit has poisoned this!" ”

"Yes." The palace maid walked out with the jin box, but she didn't want to bump into a person. Looking up, the first thing that came into sight was a frightening red mark, and when I looked at it again, I found that it was Ning Guiren standing in front of her, looking at her with a cold gaze. The little palace maid was immediately frightened and fell to her knees.

"Concubine Rong, my sister has come to see you." Rouge didn't look at the palace maid either, and went straight into Concubine Rong's inner chamber.

"Hongu won't bother you to come and see." Concubine Rong didn't look at Rouge, but she soon realized that Rouge didn't come alone, she seemed to have brought a lot of servants.

"Come, wait for Concubine Rong." Rouge smiled, dealing with a figure like Concubine Rong, there was no need to bother to set up any bureau. Anyway, this round is about to reach the finale.

Several strong palace ladies pressed Concubine Rong to death, and even blocked her mouth with a handkerchief. Rouge took the porcelain bottle from her arms and poured it into a teacup in the maid's end.

"Concubine Rong, after drinking this, you will never be in pain." Rouge suddenly smiled, although there was still that terrible red mark on her face, but the smile was like a flower, and it was really a bit moving.

Concubine Rong soon stopped struggling, and her body gradually became cold.

Rouge suddenly reached out and grabbed the rouge button she was wearing around her waist, stroked it gently, and finally pulled it down and put it into her arms.

When Wan Qianning returned to the palace, it was already late at night. He seemed to have a premonition of something, changed his clothes, and hurried to Concubine Rong's palace, where everyone on the side knelt down and saluted.

"What about Concubine Rong?" Wan Qianning asked.

"The mother felt unwell and went to bed early." The little palace maid answered.

Wan Qianning nodded, pressed the uneasiness in his heart, turned around and walked to Rouge's bedchamber. He didn't realize that the palace maid in Concubine Rong's palace was no longer the one he had seen the day before.

But the more he walked, the more uneasy he felt in his heart, and this uneasiness he had had felt before. Only the person who had the accident that time was Lady Shufei.

In that year, Empress Sikong collected a lot of evidence of adultery between Concubine Shu and Wan Qianhe, the King of Qi, and exposed it in front of Wan Qianning, who was furious. Empress Sikong thought that she would be able to overthrow Lady Shu in this way.

However, Wan Qianning only killed Wan Qianhe, the King of Qi, on the charge of treason.

"Even if you kill me, you won't get Fu Yue's heart." When Wan Qianhe died, he was not afraid at all, but smiled extremely happily, "She will avenge me..."

Wan Qianning was extremely angry, and he put Concubine Shufei under house arrest in the palace, and had not yet thought of a way to deal with it. But at this time, there was news that Lady Shufei was two months pregnant.

"Emperor, that wild seed must be King Qi's!" Sikong said to Wan Qianning in a strong voice.

"Maybe that kid is decaying." Wan Qianning held out a glimmer of hope, "I want to ask Fu Yue." ”

"Doesn't the emperor understand?" That shameless woman could not have conceived the emperor's child at all! Sikong Clan easily punctured the last layer of hope in Wan Qianning's heart, "How long will the emperor be confused by her!" ”

Wan Qianning laughed fiercely, leaving Sikong Clan behind and hurried to Lady Shu's palace.

But when he arrived, he found Shufei lying on the ground with a pale face, next to a broken medicine bowl. And the gushing blood was flowing down her legs.

"Fu Yue—" Wan Qianning was startled, "Fu Yue, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Can't you see it?" Lady Shufei's voice was so cold that it seemed to emanate from the ice cellar, "I killed our children." ”

"Is the child really decayed?" Wan Qianning couldn't help but ask rhetorically.

"My Fu Yue and His Highness the King of Qi were originally innocent, and those so-called incriminating evidences were nothing more than the Empress's framing!" Fu Yue said hatefully, "Of course, I can be sure that what I am killing at this moment is your Wan Qianning bloodline!" ”

"Do you really hate it so much?" Wan Qianning's body trembled.

"Yes." Fu Yue nodded, "You killed him, of course I hate you!" ”

"Haven't you ever thought that the reason he came to you was only because..." Wan Qianning tried to explain something.

"You don't have to throw dirty water on him, I won't believe it!" Fu Yue impatiently interrupted Wan Qianning's words, "You sinister and vicious villain! You stole the throne of King Qi, and now you have killed him! I hate you! I hate not being able to eat your flesh and blood! I'd rather die than see you again!" ”

That was the last time Wan Qianning and Shufei met.

Later, Wan Qianning stayed overnight in the imperial study, and his mood was bored. However, within two days, news came that empress Sikong had privately tortured Shufei, and then Shufei was severely poisoned and died of incense.

Obviously, it was the Empress Sikong clan who sent someone to poison Andi Shufei.

Wan Qianning sent Empress Sikong into the cold palace, heartbroken and depressed. Until a few months later, a subordinate paid tribute to a beautiful woman, and looking at the appearance, it was five or six points similar to that of Lady Shufei. Wan Qianning regarded her as a stand-in for Concubine Shu and made her Concubine Rong.

Wan Qianning sighed at the bustling palace lamp. Although it had not been confirmed, he was already vaguely aware that the ruthless and wayward Concubine Rong was probably far away from him.

Before going to see Rouge, Wan Qianning thought about it for a while and went to the imperial study.

When Wan Qianning walked into Rouge's bedchamber, Rouge was holding a cup of tonics and carefully placed it in front of the table.

"Niangniang, is this cup the tonic you stewed for the emperor?" The little palace lady asked with a smile.

"Yes, the emperor's recent autumn hunt must have consumed a lot of vitality, and it is also excellent to take this opportunity to make up for it." Rouge's look was faint, and there was no trace of emotion in his tone.

But when she turned back again, she just saw Wan Qianning walk in. Rouge's face darkened, and her expression became more solemn. She lifted the lid of the cup and poured the tonic into the bowl.

"Rouge, do you know why you stay with you all the time?" Wan Qianning sat down and suddenly asked.

"The concubines don't know." Rouge replied lightly.

"Your eyes are the same as those of the Lady of the Year... Run in the same groove. Wan Qianning paused and said.

"The emperor should not think about it, or drink this bowl of supplements while it is hot." Rouge was not angry, but handed the bowl, and the cold star-like eyes flashed imperceptibly, and then lowered the curtain.

Outside the house, there seemed to be some commotion, and the noise of a woman and a eunuch palace lady came in. The crowd was wondering, but they saw a disheveled woman rushing in madly.

"Emperor—" Listening to this terrible cry, it seemed that the Emperor had abolished the Sikong Clan, "Emperor! That cup of stuff can't be drunk! emperor...... That thing is poisonous! ”

Wan Qianning didn't seem to hear it, and drank the supplements in the bowl in one sip. Several eunuchs rushed into the house in a panic and wanted to drag the ruin out, but Wan Qianning only waved his hand and signaled them to stand aside.

"You poisonous woman!" Sikong Shi suddenly went crazy and pounced on Rouge, "Lady Shu, you poisonous woman! Hongu has actually caught your treacherous plan! ”

A eunuch had already stepped forward to pull the waste, but she still cursed and grinned in her mouth.

Wan Qianning took a look at Rouge before he said, "Sikong Clan is crazy, don't bother with her." ”

"No, she's not crazy." Rouge smiled, sat down at the table, and playfully lifted the teacup on the table, "Didn't the Emperor ask me where Concubine Shu was?" I can tell the emperor now that Lady Shufei is here. ”

Lady Shufei did not die, but it was not Rong Concubine, who was five or six points similar to Lady Shufei, but a rouge with red marks.

At that time, she secretly made up her mind to avenge the Qi King Wan Qianhe, and set up a bureau. During the interrogation of the Empress Sikong clan, she deliberately screamed loudly and let the palace people hear from each other that the empress had privately tortured her. Later, when the empress was extremely angry, she exchanged faces with a confidant palace girl. Sikong shi said it well, Fu Yue's mother's hometown has its own set of transfiguration secrets, and this secret art was taught to her by Fu Yue's mother herself.

The palace maid ate food for her with the poison of the duck.

Dressed in her clothes, he died in her bedchamber for her.

Fu Yue changed her name to Rouge, and in order to hide her eyes, she even deliberately disfigured her face. She wanted to stay in this lonely deep palace, waiting for an opportunity to move, looking for a chance to take revenge.

Only later, sikong finally became suspicious of her identity and sent someone to thoroughly investigate her details, only to find that this so-called "rouge", the duty record of that year was The palace of Lady Shufei. Sikong Clan finally realized that the real Lady Shufei was right in front of her eyes!

"I have already guessed that the transfiguration secret you are talking about has long been heard by you." Moreover, if you find many slender white scars on your sideburns, you will know that you have changed your appearance. Wan Qianning's abdomen began to faintly ache, and he frowned, "However, even if your appearance changes again, your eyes will not change." Even if your appearance changes again, you are still sure to recognize you and pay yue. ”

"I don't believe it." Rouge was a little stunned, "If you recognize me, why do you drink this poison?" ”

"Shuo knows that you are avenging the King of Qi, and since you want to avenge, Shuo will let you repay." Blood flowed from the corner of Wan Qianning's mouth, "You think that you have robbed the throne of King Qi, and you will return this Jiangshan throne to you..."

"No!" Rouge suddenly rushed over excitedly and pulled out a Rouge box from his arms, "You don't want to die!" I still have questions for you! This one...... Who made this rouge buckle? Why does Concubine Rong have the same rouge buckle as me! ”

"Fu Yue, Yuan... It's Wan Qian. These two rouge buckles were made by Shu himself. Wan Qianning's eyes were miserable.

"Impossible! You are not Wan Qian..." Rouge's eyes widened in disbelief, "That redstone sword is obviously in Wan Qianhe's hands!" ”

"That was given to him by the King of Qi, who had meritorious service." Wan Qianning didn't expect that she would use that sword as a sign of recognition, "As I said, we will have a chance to see each other again in the future, so I accepted you as a concubine..."

"No..." Rouge's tears finally fell again, and she actually killed her sweetheart.

"As I said earlier, King Qi, when he approaches you, he is ill-intentioned..." Wan Qianning smiled hard, and finally fell to the ground and gradually lost his breath.

After the abolition of the Sikong Clan finally laughed clearly, she did not expect that the truth would be like this.

But at this time, an expressionless old eunuch walked into the palace and loudly read Wan Qianning's will.

“...... Wan Qianlie, the son of the crown prince, was specially elected as the crown prince and took the throne on the same day. Ning Gui was a man of pure character and had both moral integrity and ability, and was appointed empress dowager and in charge of the affairs of the dynasty. After the abolition of the Sikong clan, the depravity of virtue and the death..."

He paved the way for her to come, and removed all obstacles for her. But what he didn't know was that for a woman who had harbored hatred and blinded her heart for many years, the rest was only the pain and torture of the dark day.

The days go on and on, and this hatred lasts forever.
