Chapter 198 Does the Emperor hate me?
After many twists and turns, they finally returned to Zheng State.
Along the way, Feng Xiyao escaped whenever she had the chance, either by jumping off the inn and being caught and brought back, or by encountering wolves in the forest...
Shangguan Beiyuan was annoyed by her and lost his patience, so he simply tied her around his waist and kept an eye on her at all times.
He came to Prince Yuan's palace in Zheng State, pulled the rope on Feng Xiyao's wrist, and pulled her in.
"Ah Lian, this is my guest. From now on, I will leave him in your care!"
Feng Xiyao staggered and glared at him fiercely.
"Guest! Is this how you treat your guests?"
Shangguan Beiyuan smiled slightly, his beautiful peach blossom eyes were very charming.
"Who told you to escape? Now that you're in the palace, let's see how you can escape again!"
Feng Xiyao gritted her teeth in hatred, turned around and tried to run, but the man gently pulled the rope and pulled her back.
Feng Xiyao was pulled into the man's arms. Her eyes darkened and she used her head to push him apart.
Shangguan Beiyuan was pushed back a few steps by her.
"Hmph!" Feng Xiyao snorted coldly.
Shangguan Beiyuan always had a smile on his face as he threw the rope to the maid named A Lian.
"I'm leaving it to you. Remember to treat her well. Apart from preventing her from escaping, no one is allowed to make things difficult for her!"
Ah Lian looked at the extremely beautiful woman in front of her. Although she was puzzled about her identity, she still nodded obediently.
"Yes! Sixth Prince!"
After giving the instructions, Shangguan Beiyuan had important things to do, so he turned around and left.
“…”
The only person he knew left, leaving only Feng Xiyao and a group of servants.
Ah Lian was too embarrassed to pull her along by the rope, so she kindly untied the rope for her.
"Miss, please, the guest room has been cleaned up!"
Looking at the closed door and the presence of so many servants, Feng Xiyao felt that she could not escape.
After half a month of traveling, she was physically exhausted. It was a good opportunity for her to stay here and recuperate so that she could escape far away when the time was right.
After thinking about it, Feng Xiyao followed A Lian in.
…
In the Weiyang Palace.
Mu Yun had disappeared for many days. At first, Song Qianxue thought she had met with an accident, but after asking around, she still couldn't hear any news about her.
Finally, she thought that Mu Yun might feel that the palace was boring and ran away from it.
That woman has always been cruel and ruthless, it's better for her to leave.
But she found that Mo Cangyan had not come to see her in the past few days. Even when the wound she pretended to have blocked for him last time started to hurt again, he still did not come.
This made Song Qianxue very anxious. After all, she could not be considered a woman in the harem. She was afraid that after she recovered completely, she would be driven out of the palace just like last time.
She thought about it carefully and decided that she had to ask Mo Cangyan to give her an identity, otherwise all the women in the harem would come to Weiyang Palace to step on her...
Concubine Li has been feeling that she has forgotten something very important lately, but she just can't remember it.
Until he remembered that Ying'er had not appeared in front of him for many days, he ordered the people in the palace to look for her quickly.
After searching for two days without success, a palace maid passing by the Yu Garden discovered Ying'er's body in the lotus pond and screamed in fear on the spot.
Several guards went down to pick the body up, but they found that the body was already dead. His body had become fat from being soaked in the water, and his features could not be seen clearly.
The palace maids in Xiuchun Palace went in and saw the clothes and recognized that this was Ying'er who had disappeared for a long time.
When Concubine Li heard the news, she ran over and saw that it was Ying'er. She almost fainted.
Ying'er was her dowry maid, and she grew up with her, so naturally her feelings for her were deeper.
Ying'er died for no apparent reason. The imperial physician found that her neck was broken and she was thrown into the pond.
When Mo Cangyan heard the news, he immediately ordered people to block the news and instructed that Ying'er be buried properly.
Concubine Li Xu was shocked by Ying'er's death, and she recalled the memory of that time when she woke up the next day.
He immediately ran to Mo Cangyan's Purple Gold Palace and told him what happened that day.
"When I heard that they were going to attack Feng Xiyao, they wanted to kill her!"
"They knocked me out and then killed Ying'er..."
At that time, Mu Yun was also planning to kill Concubine Li, but someone happened to come and she didn't have the chance to do it.
Mo Cangyan also knew that it was Mu Yun who did it, but he couldn't alarm Song Qianxue.
If she becomes alert, it would be difficult to trick Murong in.
That night.
When Song Qianxue arrived at the Purple Gold Palace, she saw Mo Cangyan carefully reviewing memorials.
Looking at his handsome profile, her heart skipped a beat and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
Now that Feng Xiyao is dead, this man is hers!
Thinking of this, her face turned red.
In order not to disturb him, she went in quietly.
Mo Cangyan knew it was Song Qianxue who came in when she approached, but he was too lazy to even give her a glance.
If we didn't rely on her to lure Murong out, we would have sent her to accompany Mu Yun long ago.
"Your Majesty has been busy all day, have a drink and take a break!"
Mo Cangyan didn't even raise his head.
"Just leave it there, I'll drink it later!"
Seeing that Mo Cangyan had been cold and indifferent to her these past few days, and his eyes no longer had the tenderness they had before, Song Qianxue bit her lip.
After a while, she spoke with grievance.
"Does the Emperor dislike me?"
“…”
After a long time, Mo Cangyan raised his eyes to look at the woman who looked aggrieved with tears in her eyes.
"Why should I hate you?"
If I don't like her, how can I dislike her? But I do hate her and I want to tear her apart.
Song Qianxue thought he would say "I hate you", she pursed her lips unwillingly.
"Your Majesty, what I said to you before was sincere. I fell in love with you the first time I saw you!"
"Your presence makes my heart no longer have room for anyone else. If possible, I want to stay with you forever."
"Your Majesty, please grant me this request. I really like you and I want to stay by your side forever!"
“…”
Listening to Song Qianxue's heartfelt love words, Mo Cangyan's face remained expressionless.
Under Song Qianxue's expectant eyes, he just spoke coldly.
"The Queen just passed away, and you're telling me this?"
"Even if I really want you to stay by my side, if the people outside the palace knew about this, how would they view me?"
"You are so eager, it will only make them think that I am heartless and ungrateful!"
With just a few words, the whole matter was brought back to Song Qianxue.
Song Qianxue looked at Mo Cangyan happily. She heard that the emperor was willing to let her stay by his side.
But he was right. The queen had just died. If he took me in, he would be cursed in the future.
Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth. If she had known earlier, she would have killed Feng Xiyao as soon as she entered the palace.
If it had been earlier, maybe I could be together with Mo Cangyan openly now.
"I understand, Your Majesty. I was too impatient, but I did this because I like you too much. Please don't be angry!"
