Once that thought flashed across Xiao Ruyue's mind, she was extremely shocked.
Now that he thought about it carefully, the youth that he saved back then had never told him where he was from, where he lived, or what his parents did for a living.
Was there really such a coincidence in this world?
"This concludes Empress Dowager's business. "Just pretend it never happened. If someone were to bring it up again in the future, it would be like saying that you don't know what's good for you."
Yuwen He looked at Xiao Ruyue and said, "Min Er, I am not worrying too much about those old people, I am serious. If I was not the emperor, you are not a princess, but also not a queen, do you think we would be able to be an ordinary couple, living together for eternity?"
Xiao Ruyue never thought that he would be so persistent, and mentioned it again.
She smiled and replied, "If you and I were ordinary people, we might not even meet. "Therefore, this hypothesis was false."
But why did his heart hurt?
Could it be that you also desire to become an ordinary couple with him, to hold hands and live together forever?
But that was a dream that he would never be able to complete in his entire life.
Xiao Ruyue suppressed the bitterness in her heart, and then realized how different Yuwen He's position was in her heart.
Unknowingly, her feelings were deep and tender.
But, other than the status of the empress, where would they be able to protect each other, and where would they be able to meet?
After Yuwen He left, Xiao Ruyue fell into deep thought.
Liangqiu Yayin saw that she was sitting alone by the window, playing with the white porcelain teacup in her hands, but her gaze was unknown.
She didn't want to disturb him.
"Big Sister Ya Yin, tell me, if we could go back in time and make everything go back to before, wouldn't we have a different ending?"
Xiao Ruyue called out to her just as she was about to leave.
Liangqiu Yayin paused in her steps, walked to the back of her body, and said, "Yue'er, what has happened cannot be changed. The backtracking of time only exists in legends. Don't think too much about it now. I can tell that you are sincere towards that emperor, and that he is even more protective and caring towards you. Everything else is for you, so I can't bear to see you suffer even the slightest bit of grievance. Furthermore, even ordinary people would find it hard to achieve such a feat, not to mention the fact that Emperors were not Emperors at all. "
"Sister Ya Yin, there are a lot of things that I haven't told you, but I feel very aggrieved in my heart. I need someone to talk to me. "Are you willing to listen to my story?" Xiao Ruyue looked at her earnestly.
Her secret could probably only be heard by Liangqiu Yayin.
Other than that, she couldn't think of anyone else to listen to her.
"Are you talking about the story of how you went from Yue'er to Min Er?"
Xiao Ruyue nodded.
The people of Liang Qiu lived in seclusion, and they were completely different from the people of the outside world. In their hearts, promises took precedence over everything, and friends and relatives over all.
It was a matter of righteousness.
"I have to start from that stormy night ten years ago …"
Ten years ago, she was in her sixties. It was a stormy night.
The arrival of the new life should have been a joyous and lively celebration, but under the lead of Yao Ziyan and Yuwen Chenglian, the whole world had changed.
She became the unchaste and unclean girl that Yuwen Chenglian talked about with someone else and tried to confuse the royal bloodline with a bastard. Yao Ziyan's words made Yuwen Chenglian believe it. No matter how much she did for him, she gave him children and became a sinner overnight.
Your child Fang was born and bred. Before she could even see the beauty of this world, he had already died a violent death in front of her. She was actually powerless to do anything.
Seeing her own flesh and blood being strangled to death, the next was herself.
The red-hot iron chain wrapped itself around her skin, and from then on, the chain and flesh would no longer be able to be removed.
The pain penetrated his heart, causing him to be utterly humiliated.
However, even if it was better to die than to live, she would not easily surrender.
At that moment, she swore to make those who harmed her pay with their blood!
One day without snow, one day without light words!
After five and a half years of imprisonment, she had lived a life worse than death, and her face was completely unrecognizable. Yet on New Year's Eve, she had watched the fireworks bloom all over the city, starving to death. But who knew, everything was like a dream, when she woke up, she was already in East Mausoleum.
From death to life, there was no sign of it. She did not understand either.
After that, she became a princess and Situ Chen bestowed her with the title of "Wuyou" and married her back to Da Xia Empire. Meeting Yuwen He.
Yuwen He treated her like a treasure and treated her so well that it made her feel like she had fallen into paradise.
One step at a time, she still felt like she was dreaming.
It was an unreal dream. He could wake up at any moment.
Liangqiu Yayin listened quietly, her expression occasionally becoming shocked, astonished, and incredulous.
It seemed to her that this was just a story, but it also sounded like she truly believed the truth of the story.
But her expression was so deceptive that it looked like she wasn't wearing anything.
After Xiao Ruyue had finished speaking for a long time, she said sincerely: "I never thought you would experience so much. From death to life, it was like a rebirth. Your former husband was really something. And that Wei Wangfei, he's simply a beast with a human's face! However, all of these cannot be judged by common sense. "
Xiao Ruyue laughed bitterly, she did not know how to reply.
Then, Liangqiu Yayin sighed, "If it wasn't for me being an extraordinary person, I would definitely have only listened to this story as a story. Presumably, you wouldn't dare to tell your husband about it. "
Xiao Ruyue laughed bitterly.
Thus, she didn't dare hope that anyone would understand.
He was only willing to reveal the secrets in his heart and relax a little.
But Liangqiu Yayin could understand and believe that she was already overjoyed.
But strangely, she secretly wished in her heart: If only I could tell Yuwen He these words, it would be great.
After the Emperor went to the Imperial Palace and fought with the officials to protect the Empress's life while she talked about the matter of the Empress Dowager, Yao Ziyan had intentionally or unintentionally investigated Xiao Ruyue to clear the suspicion that she was spreading the rumors.
However, Xiao Ruyue would always say a few words to her, so she could not get anything out of him, and could only give up. She left the palace very early.
However, after leaving the palace, she did not return to the Wei Wang Manor. Instead, she went straight to a well-known rouge shop in the capital — — Cigarette Water Pavilion.
The rouge and cosmetic powder produced by the Cigarette Water Pavilion was sought after by all the noble families in the capital. It was made from a rare snow lotus on the outer layer of the mountain that was used as a base and was produced using an ancient method for a full 981 days. The degree of detail was something that normal rouge and cosmetic powder could not compare with, a thousand gold was hard to come by.
However, no one knew that there was a powerful backing coming from the Cigarette Water Pavilion.
Everyone in the capital knew that the Wei Wangfei was a regular customer of the Cigarette Water Pavilion.
Therefore, when Yao Ziyan appeared in the Cigarette Water Pavilion, no one would feel that anything was amiss.
Once Yao Ziyan got off the carriage, a clever girl from Cigarette Water Pavilion came out to receive him and led him into the pavilion.
The rear pavilion was actually a small building with two floors.
After going up to the second floor, the girl stopped in front of a door and said to Xiao Ruyue: "The tower lord is already waiting inside.
Without waiting for Yao Ziyan to speak, the girl went downstairs.
Yao Ziyan cautiously pushed open the door and entered.
Inside the room, there were five lotus flower lamps burning. It was unknown what sort of strange object the lamp wick was, but it was a room filled with a delicate fragrance.
From behind the curtain came a soft "En" sound, "Get up."
Yao Ziyan then stood up gracefully, with a face full of flattery, "Junior Master, why did you leave the palace yourself? Didn't they say that the palace was tightly guarded and that you couldn't exit the palace easily? "
"Hmph, you piece of trash, you have failed over and over again, how can I be at ease if I do not personally take charge?!" The voice that came out from behind the curtain was undoubtedly Ye Haitang's voice, but it seemed to be older than when she was in the palace.
Yao Ziyan immediately knelt down, "Please forgive me Junior Master, I was in the wrong, please forgive me!"
"What is the use of asking for forgiveness? "Last time, when I told you to poison that bitch without anyone noticing, you failed; last time, I told you to take advantage of her time at the palace to teach her a lesson, but she came back unharmed, it was only a little shock; this time, I let you fan the flames, you can't do it either, tell me, what can you do after we nurtured you for so many years!"
She would feel aggrieved if she was angry at Yao Ziyan.
"Uncle-master, you can't say it like that. The poison was administered in secret last time, but who knew that she would actually find someone who can cure poisons?" Didn't you say that the poison is unsolvable? "
"You mean I lied to you?!" Ye Haitang's voice came out from behind the curtain, it was filled with anger, she sat straight up.
"Uncle-master is enlightened. Disciple does not dare. However, Junior Master, you should also know that if something were to happen to Situ Min in the Duke Palaces, the Duke Palaces will be in for a disaster. I, your disciple, am truly thinking for the greater good.
Yao Ziyan lowered her head and spoke sincerely, but a bit of what she said was true, and only she herself knew.
"So, I wronged you again?" Ye Haitang smirked, "Then, was it also my fault for making you spread the rumor around? I shouldn't have let you do these things, because the Emperor is protecting her! "No matter how others say it, it's useless!"
"Martial Uncle, I am not this …"
"Meaning" Before he even had the chance to say it, he was interrupted by Ye Haitang who suddenly stood up and opened the curtain.
"No matter what it is, you can find excuses for yourself. Did our Red Sleeve House save you to cultivate you just to listen to your excuses? Yao Ziyan, don't forget, I want you to live on so that you can. If any day comes when I am unhappy, I will let you live a life worse than death! "
