Wei Yuchen, is that position really that important?
You can even abandon your wife and children? Even if you let them turn into evil spirits, are you willing to do that?
If this is the case, how will you accept this mother and son in this life?
It turned out that the person who saw the situation most clearly from the beginning to the end was not Wei Yuchen, nor the master, but Qiu Zhen, who was sandwiched between the two of them and played the role of a third party.
She believed that what Qiu Zhen had just said might not be understood by Wei Yuchen, let alone her own master.
Because she knew the whole incident, she was able to resonate with Qiu Zhen's words. Almost subconsciously, she believed that what she said was true, because Qiu Zhen not only understood Wei Yuchen, but also especially understood her master.
However, who could have imagined that the facts were really developing as Wei Yuchen had imagined? How would they feel if they knew that the series of revenges against Wei were all because of his love for her?
And Qiu Zhen, if the day ever comes when she actually meets her, will she faint from fright, or will she chat with her about family matters and share with her the grievances and sufferings she has endured over the past few decades?
Mu Han sneered and shook his head slightly. How is this possible?
According to her master's temperament, once this pair of dogs appeared in front of her, she would definitely make them live a life worse than death!
"What? Do you think what I said is wrong?" Seeing Mu Han shaking his head, Qiu Zhen frowned unhappily.
Mu Han suddenly came to his senses and shook his head lightly: "It's not wrong, but I can't understand it. I can't understand this kind of love. Love should be beautiful, right? But why must it be stained with blood?"
"Especially this kind of love is a double-edged sword. It hurts the other person and stabs yourself at the same time. In the end, both sides suffer. Why bother?"
Qiu Zhen's unique soft and charming laughter suddenly rang out: "Hahaha, Mu Han, ah Mu Han, you really are worthy of being an old girl. Can't you see such a simple truth?"
"When a man's rights and status are threatened to a certain extent, especially when this position is coveted by everyone, his ambition will expand little by little until it reaches a situation that you cannot control,"
"There is only one such position, but a man can have women and children at any time. As long as he has this position, he can have countless women in the future. Even the most beautiful and wonderful women in the country can be obtained by him."
"If a moment of leniency could lead to the loosening of this position, he would rather immediately reduce this possibility to the lowest level, or even eliminate it."
"He can live without a woman and a son, but he absolutely cannot live without that position. Even if that position is earned by the people he is about to execute at the cost of their lives, he will do it at all costs."
"So, he really did it. Not only did he do it, but he did it on a super large scale, almost losing himself. The sacrifices he made for it were so great that the Siyou Kingdom regressed for several years. If it weren't for the iron barrel defense left by General Du, and if he hadn't led the troops himself, how could they have survived?"
"The heart of an emperor is the most ruthless. This sentence is the most true portrayal of him now. As an emperor, he should be ruthless and unrighteous. Don't you find that the current emperor is the one that everyone fears? Hahahaha..."
Mu Han quietly looked at Qiu Zhen who was laughing wildly. She knew that she was trying to hide her inner sadness with a smile, but for some reason, she suddenly felt that the woman in front of her was also a pitiful person.
Over the years, Wei Yuchen never loved her, but gave her a seemingly noble and glamorous identity and status. She had a son and a daughter, and she had everything she wanted before. Unfortunately, there was no true love in between.
Qiu Zhen loved him, loved him recklessly. For him, she even gave up the family that had the possibility of returning to her roots, but what did she get in the end?
She had asked herself more than once, had she ever been happy over the years?
But every time I think of this problem, my heart feels like it’s being pricked by needles. It really hurts!
Have they ever been happy? Maybe, but most of the time, they have been lonely at night and had nightmares all the time!
She has been worried about gains and losses over the years.
She has been living in fear and anxiety over the years.
Over the years, she has been scheming and conspiring to frame others.
Over the years, she even had her hands stained with blood in order to consolidate her position and prove his favor to her.
But she thought he had seen through her, but what was the truth?
It’s just so-so, just so-so!
At this moment, she wanted to laugh out loud, Rong Zicheng, you have such a cruel heart!
I only hear the laughter of the new people, but not the crying of the old people?
Although she had experienced this feeling countless times over the years, this time was different. It was different. How long had this woman been in the palace?
She was pregnant in less than three months? How much did the emperor love her? How much?
Counting the days, the emperor hasn't been to her Yongning Palace for nearly ten days. This is abnormal, very abnormal.
So, when she heard that he went to Baiyuxuan again last night, she completely collapsed.
She would rather he went to another concubine, and she didn't want his final choice to be someone who looked so much like her!
The position of Queen has been vacant until now. Who knows if Yu Yan, whom they all fear, will suddenly become Queen?
How could she not be afraid? How could she not be angry?
"Your Highness, even if you are unhappy, you can't lose your temper here. If it gets to the emperor's ears,
"I want to let the emperor know how angry I am!"
"But Madam, don't we still have cooperation with Bai Yuxuan? Even though this cooperation hasn't started yet, it doesn't mean it's over!"
"After all, from what we can see right now, this woman is not only bad for us, she is also good!"
"Look, now all the firepower is aimed at Bai Yuxuan. The entire harem seems to have become quiet all of a sudden. It has been so quiet for a long time."
"Oh, cooperation? That was just some kind of cooperation that you forced me to do. This cooperation is optional. Do you think I care about it?"
"I thought this woman would be more sensible and that we could perhaps benefit each other."
"But now, three months later, she is pregnant. Within 90 days, the emperor has been resting with her for at least 60 days. Is this reasonable? Is this reasonable?"
Seeing that no amount of persuasion was working and the situation was only getting worse, Mu Han simply kept silent and let him complain and vent as much as he could. It was not until a young eunuch ran in in a panic that he realized that the Emperor had actually arrived.
Mu Han looked at Qiu Zhen who suddenly jumped up from the bed and was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Your Highness, what do you look like? You should go and take a bath. What if the Emperor sees you like this?"
Qiu Zhen looked at the mess in the room and suddenly became panicked.
"What should we do? What should we do? Quick, hurry up and order someone to come in and clean up the mess. No, no, we can't let the emperor in. Oh, you have to think of a solution!"
"Your Highness, it's too late to go wash up and take a bath first. I'm thinking of a solution now. I also need to ask someone to clean up here. Please go first."
Before Mu Han finished his words, Qiu Zhen had already run out barefoot to call for help. Looking at the mess and debris on the ground, Mu Han couldn't help but sigh again at Qiu Zhen's fighting ability. She was crying and shouting one second, and the next second she was happily dressing up.
Are all women so fickle?
It usually takes her an incense stick of time to wash and bathe, but today it only took half an incense stick. Even Empress Zhenfei, who has always paid attention to her appearance, actually gave up her favorite complicated bun and did the simplest one. She even started to dress in a fresh and clean style, which really made Mu Han's eyes twitch.
this……
Fortunately, Mu Han was there to take care of everything. When Qiu Zhen went downstairs to tidy up her appearance, Mu Han had already been ordering her men to clean the bedroom in an orderly manner.
At the same time, she walked unhurriedly to the small garden outside Yongning Palace.
Looking at the weather today, the sky is clear and the temperature is suitable, so we immediately prepare tea, snacks and flowers in the pavilion.
When Wei Yuchen stepped into Yongning Palace, Concubine Zhen appeared in front of him in a fresh and charming green palace dress that was eye-catching.
Wei Yuchen, who hadn't seen Qiu Zhen for a long time, was a little uncomfortable when he suddenly saw her change her previous luxurious and noble dress to a plain and simple one.
But fortunately, a beauty is a beauty. Qiu Zhen has a good foundation, and even if she changes her aura, it still can't stop the radiance around her.
He immediately stepped forward to help his Concubine Zhen up, "Zhen'er, get up quickly, why do you look so unhappy today?"
Qiu Zhen had just lost her temper this morning. There were no secrets in the harem, and she was unsure whether the emperor knew about it. Rather than let the emperor become suspicious and test her, she might as well admit it openly.
She immediately stepped forward, took Wei Yuchen's arm, and gave him a coquettish look.
"Your Majesty is a rare guest today. I don't know how long it has been since I last saw you. How can I be in a good mood without seeing Your Majesty?"
When Wei Yuchen's brows sank slightly, Qiu Zhen suddenly smiled at him with great energy.
"But fortunately, the emperor is here now. I am very happy from the bottom of my heart. Your Majesty, the weather is so good today. Why don't we go to the small garden to drink tea and chat?"
Wei Yuchen's expression eased a little, and he reached out and pinched Qiu Zhen's rosy face.
"You, I don't know you. You say you're happy, but I don't know how you're cursing me in your heart. Do you feel that I've neglected you these days? Are you unhappy?"
Qiu Zhen's face changed, and she knelt down in fear and trepidation: "Your Majesty, I dare not. How dare I scold you? Your Majesty is busy with all kinds of affairs, how can he stay in the harem day and night? If this gets out, wouldn't it be a disaster for the beauty?"
"I know that the emperor is diligent in his work and loves the people, so I would never think this way. However, it is true that the emperor has not come to Yongning Palace for a long time. I dare not deceive the emperor, but I definitely have no other thoughts. I hope the emperor will understand!"
Wei Yuchen looked at Qiu Zhen's tearful face and his heart softened as he gently helped her up.
"Okay, I was just saying that. Look how scared you are. Okay, I don't know you well enough. Let's go. I haven't been here for such a long time. I miss the tea you made for me. Come on, play a few games of chess with me."
Qiu Zhen let out a long sigh, then slowly stood up with the help of Wei Yuchen, looking as if he had survived a calamity.
But in his heart, he was very dissatisfied. She made the tea? Haha, she learned this skill from Du Yunge. How could he not know?
Did I come to her Yongning Palace on a whim today just for this cup of tea?
Even though she felt uncomfortable, Qiu Zhen still followed her instructions and ordered Mu Han to go downstairs to prepare tea.
Because Wei Yuchen liked drinking tea, and Yongning Palace had been in great favor with the emperor over the years, especially since Wei Yuchen would always come to Yongning Palace to sit for a while after the morning court session, the palace maids in Yongning Palace had long developed the habit of collecting dew.
She thought he had been ignoring her all these days, but she didn't expect him to come today. She should be happy, right?
Why was she so unhappy when she mentioned tea? Was it because she was thinking of a certain woman?
Now, not only Du Yunge, but even her new favorite has become a demon in her eyes, and the culprit of this demon is the world-famous eldest daughter of the Du family - Du Yunge.
Because of Du Yunge's brilliance, Qiu Zhen has already regarded her as her greatest enemy in this life.
Even though she had never done anything to let her down, and even though she was the one who saved her, she should be grateful, right?
But why is there only endless hatred between them?
Especially, even if she is mentioned now, she always feels very reluctant in her heart.
Du Yunge, Du Yunge, it was this Du Yunge again. She had already become the inner demon of her heart and could not be shaken off. Could it be that she wanted to haunt her for the rest of her life?
Qiu Zhen raised his eyes and quickly glanced at Wei Yuchen, who was holding the teacup thoughtfully, and sighed softly in his heart.
Now, she is the only one who is troubled? I am afraid that the emperor came to her to find his memories, right?
Her skill in brewing tea came entirely from Diu Yingbao's true teachings. Although she couldn't reach Du Yunge's level, in the entire palace, the taste of her tea was the closest to hers.
Over the years, he would only come to her for tea when he encountered troubles. Looking at him like this, could it be that he was upset again?
But recently Concubine Yu is pregnant, isn’t the Emperor very happy?
He even protected that woman so much that he personally ordered that no one from the harem was allowed to go to Baiyuxuan to disturb her. Haha, the idea of disturbing her was fake, but the real idea was that he was afraid that they would harm her and the baby in her belly?
Especially, over the years, Wei Yuchen knew her jealousy best, so what? Was he here to attack her today?
It seems that what happened this morning finally reached his ears.
Qiu Zhen sneered, but continued to repeat the actions of making tea without any expression, from washing the tea leaves, to the second cup of tea, as well as the required temperature and color of the tea, and so on. These seemingly simple actions actually contained many thresholds.
She could feel Wei Yuchen's gaze on her, but as to whether he was looking at her or at someone else through her, only Wei Yuchen himself knew.
Over the years, she had gotten used to his occasional distraction, so she made tea quietly without saying a word.
She didn't want to disturb him and disturb his peace. If he wanted to talk, he would speak naturally. Before he spoke, any attempt to speak would be inappropriate.
At this time, everyone around him had left, leaving only the personal eunuch beside Wei Yuchen and Mu Han beside Qiu Zhen standing not far away, waiting for their orders at any time.
Mu Han had long been accustomed to the way they got along. In fact, she had thought more than once, why did Wei Yuchen want to keep Qiu Zhen? Is it good or bad to keep a woman who knows his past and present by his side?
No matter what rumors the outside world spreads, the only people who know the truth are these two people. Even the Queen Mother and Prince Rong only know one side of the story.
Although Qiu Zhen seemed to be enjoying a glorious life on the surface, Mu Han had been able to see over the years that Wei Yuchen was only perfunctory and superficially caring towards Qiu Zhen, and he did not have the kind of heartfelt care and love that he showed to his young lady.
Precisely because she was a witness, she could tell that Wei Yuchen didn't like Qiu Zhen very much. On the contrary, not only did he not like her very much, he even had a hint of disgust towards her.
But even so, he could still forbear and give her everything that seemed to be the best. He even let her take care of the power of the harem.
What does this mean?
Is it just because Qiu Zhen has too many shadows of the young ladies on him?
For example, the tea being brewed in front of you, and even the pastries on the table, are all based on the taste and appearance of the ones the young lady once made.
Although these were no longer a secret in the harem, and even each palace would prepare some according to the emperor's taste, the ones that looked the best and tasted the best were only made by Qiu Zhen herself.
Haha, instead of torturing yourself like this, why did you kill the young lady in the first place?
It’s just a position, is it really that important?
Doesn’t Wei Yuchen know whether the Du family has the intention of rebellion?
But why did he do that in the end?
After doing it, what is the point of reminiscing about the past in this way?
Every time this happened, Mu Han would look at it all with disdain, looking at this couple who had long been labeled as a bunch of adults in her eyes.
If they had planned all this with the determination to die before, then now, things are really very different.
Because the lady is alive.
Their young lady is there for everything. She doesn't believe that they can't take revenge on them. Sooner or later, the Wei family's empire will cease to exist because of Wei Yuchen.
Because, the lady after rebirth really looks scary. If she still had some girlish heart before, then the lady after rebirth has been completely burned by the flame of the goddess of vengeance.
The fire will not go out until the last moment. As long as this fire is there, the Wei family’s kingdom will be like a sword hanging over their heads, and there is a danger of being killed at any time!
After an unknown amount of time, Wei Yuchen's slightly aged voice finally rang out from the pavilion: "Zhen'er, have you ever hated me? Even a little bit?"
When Wei Yuchen's eyes were fixed on Qiu Zhen, the latter's smile froze and he looked a little embarrassed: "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?"
Wei Yuchen's complexion didn't seem to be very good, it was dark and gloomy, I wonder if it was because he didn't get enough rest.
Hearing Qiu Zhen's question, he gently stroked the edge of the teacup with his slender fingers, looking at the green plants outside the pavilion with a slightly melancholy look, his eyes far away.
"Do you know? During the morning court today, I heard that several of my trusted aides died inexplicably and without a sound."
