Chapter 178: Choice, being disliked is his fate
When Song Qingyun heard this, her eyes widened in disbelief.
If Feng Ming was just on guard against her last time, now he is completely disgusted and hates her.
She was so heartbroken that she couldn't accept it.
Just a few months ago, he respected and loved me like his own sister.
But now...
Her eyes were sore and instantly filled with tears. "Feng Ming, you actually think so? In your eyes, I am the bad guy who deliberately plotted to murder the prince's life?"
She didn't call him Wind Guard, but called him by his first name.
When she and Beigong You made a vow of eternal love, she was very kind to the guards around him. She also called him like that at that time. Everyone knew that she treated Feng Ming as her own brother.
"The prince has been tied to Optimus Prime now. What does Concubine Song want me to think?"
What else could he think?
"I don't know whether Concubine Song really wanted to harm the prince, but it is a fact that you harmed the prince." Feng Ming's eyes were cold.
She was once the most talented woman in Shengjing, and a perfect match for the prince.
He respected and honored her, treating her as the mistress of the palace. He took special care of her and protected her in every way, fearing that she would be bullied or wronged.
Everything he did was not only because she was gentle and kind, but also because she was the apple of the prince's eye.
She was good to the prince, and he was good to her.
But now, she not only harmed the prince, but also almost killed the entire Ning Wang Mansion. How could he not be angry?
If she were a man, he would have already smashed down with his clenched fist.
"Heh..." Song Qingyun sneered.
Feng Ming actually thought that it was her fault that Beigong You was tied to Optimus Prime at this time.
Does he think so too?
Although she had been bedridden for the past two days, she knew that Beigong You had volunteered to go to the Temple of Heaven and be tied to Optimus Prime for Lin Miaoyin.
"If I kill one person or infect one person, I will cut my own flesh."
What a touching friendship.
Why should Lin Miaoyin's crime be pinned on her?
Above the Temple of Heaven, under Optimus Prime, the black figure heard the voices over here, his numb fingers moved slightly, and he slowly looked over there.
From his perspective, the bloody sunset cast a layer of crimson glow on Song Qingyun's white figure.
In a trance, he thought Lin Miaoyin came over.
His eyes, dry as dead water, trembled violently. He hurriedly stood up, struggling so hard that the chains that bound him rattled. He spoke hoarsely, "Let her come over."
"Prince?" Feng Ming was stunned.
The prince actually wanted to see her? Soon, the disbelief in his eyes was replaced by disappointment.
Even someone as dull as him can see that Concubine Song is not worthy of the prince's love at all. Can't the prince see it?
"Your Majesty!"
After hearing this, Song Qingyun ignored Feng Ming and took Zizhu directly to the Temple of Heaven.
She stopped before she reached Optimus.
Because the figure under Optimus Prime was emitting a foul odor. In the hot summer of July, the slightest movement under the scorching sun would make one sweat profusely, but the man in front of him had not washed for two days, let alone changed his clothes, and was now covered in filth and sweat.
The smell from afar makes people's stomach churn.
Song Qingyun had never seen Beigong You in such a miserable and miserable state. Even though he had been defeated in the battlefield and narrowly escaped death, and was covered in blood, he was not as miserable as he is now.
At least it was heroic and vigorous back then, but now it is just lifeless.
She was almost unrecognizable.
"Your Majesty?" She tried to call out.
Beigong You raised his eyes with difficulty. Blurry scenes swayed in front of his eyes. His vision also swayed, and his head soon became dizzy.
After a while, he calmed down and his shaking vision gradually focused.
Finally, he set his eyes on that touch of white.
He frowned suspiciously. Wasn't that a red figure he just saw? How did it turn into Song Qingyun?
What is she doing here?
He narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who... asked you to come?"
"I was worried about the prince, so I took the initiative to come here." Song Qingyun's eyes turned red as she spoke. She slowly walked over to the man and wiped her tears with a handkerchief. "When the prince was away, the mansion was in chaos. They heard... they heard that the prince would be executed in the autumn, so many people packed up their bedding and fled. Now the huge Ning Prince's Mansion is empty and deserted..."
"Your Highness, you may not know that since she learned that Your Highness was punished, the Concubine has been ill. She was so sick that she couldn't get out of bed yesterday. Today, she was hanging on to her last breath to come to the Temple of Heaven."
"Let's go back." Beigong You sighed.
They had known each other for many years, and he knew the purpose of her visit without her having to say anything.
"No." Song Qingyun shook her head desperately, "I want to stay with the prince. No matter what happens, I want to be by his side and accompany him."
"This is not the place for you."
"Your Majesty is in poor health and yet he can stay here, so why should I be afraid? Rather than dying in the empty Prince Ning's Mansion, it is better to stay here with Your Majesty and die together."
It is true.
Beigong You twitched the corner of his mouth slightly.
She is still afraid of death.
So, this time she came to test whether the execution after the autumn was true or not, or to force him to find a solution?
Retreating in order to advance is what she is best at.
In the past, he never used these dirty thoughts to speculate about her, but now he suddenly seemed to see everything clearly.
It was hard for him to imagine that she, who was so afraid of death, had actually jumped into the river to save him at all costs.
Is the girl who saved her really her?
"Your Highness, can you please let me stay?" Song Qingyun requested.
Before coming, she deliberately put some powder on her face, making her already pale complexion even paler.
The thin figure was swaying in the sunset.
Beigong You won't let her stay.
"Are you determined to do this?" Beigong You looked away.
She must not know that every time she was careful and calculating, there was always a layer of gloomy mist in her eyes, which concealed the purity of the past and made him feel strange.
For example, at this moment, he could no longer see her as she used to be.
But he found that he was not very disappointed.
Maybe, there are too many disappointments.
Song Qingyun nodded firmly. She didn't want to go back and wait for death.
He is the emperor's son. Even if he committed a capital crime, the emperor would still take some family affection into consideration. Since he could save Lin Miaoyin, he could save her.
"I will let Feng Ming take you to the Jokhang Temple." Beigong You said in a calm voice.
Until this moment, he still had a glimmer of fantasy in his heart that as long as she was willing to go to the Jokhang Temple, he would bring her back if he could return to Prince Ning's Mansion in the future.
Even if he hadn't saved my life, we still have the affection we've had for so many years.
As long as she doesn't abandon him, he will protect her.
Unexpectedly, when Song Qingyun heard this, her face turned colder.
Jokhang Temple, what is that place?
That was a royal temple. Besides being a place for the ladies of the capital to burn incense and worship Buddha, it was also a place where the officials of the capital housed their wives who had committed crimes.
If she goes there, even if she can get out later, her reputation will be ruined.
How could he... send her there?
Beigong You slowly lowered his eyes, a faint sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth.
He knew her choice.
Being despised and abandoned is his fate.
My chest felt numb and I didn't feel any pain at all.
