"Little Master, Little Master... there are no ghosts, there are no ghosts!"
Yan'er and another palace maid serving Liu Guiren jumped up and down, and everyone in the palace went to catch Liu Guiren who was hiding in fear: "My young master, don't run away."
But Liu Guiren, with his hair disheveled and no shoes on, had already run far away.
"Don't pester me, it's none of my business... It's none of my business..."
Concubine Yu and Concubine Wen were still vying for favor in front of Jiang Xinyue. Liu Guiren suddenly rushed out with disheveled hair, startling them.
"Oh my god! What kind of monster?"
Concubine Yu and Concubine Wen hugged each other in fear, while Magpie and Shuangjiang stood in front of Jiang Xinyue and were about to hit him. Xiao Xiangzi pushed the screaming madman to the ground.
"no no no……"
Unexpectedly, the concubine whose face could not be seen clearly rolled on the ground: "Don't kill me, don't catch me, don't kill me... Go to Jiang Xinyue... No! Go to Cheng Jieyu... Hahaha... ...Go to De Fei and kill them all! Kill them all, and the emperor will be mine hahahaha..."
"Noble Liu! Noble Liu!"
Yan'er ran out after chasing him. When he saw Jiang Xinyue, he quickly saluted and said in panic: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please forgive me, but my master was frightened that night when the sun set. He had a high fever for three days after being comatose. When he woke up, he became very sick. It’s like this, she didn’t mean to bump into the Imperial Concubine, please forgive me.”
"Is it Liu Guiren?"
"Why is she like this?"
"Hasn't that corpse been found to be the Chu family of Xin Zheku who has been missing for a long time? Liu Guiren fell into the water and fainted from the shock when he was hugged tightly by the Chu family's skeleton. He probably couldn't bear it. He was frightened. The soul has been separated, so people must have become demented!"
Liu Guiren's whole body was dissociated. He laughed and cried sometimes, and his eyes were not focused. His fear and madness were very real, not like a performance.
If she has such god-like acting skills, she must have a place in the harem.
She is really crazy.
"Take her back and find an imperial doctor to give your master a good look. How will you live in the next few decades if you get mad at such a young age?"
Yan'er's nose became sore and tears flowed down her face. She choked and knelt down on the ground to kowtow to Jiang Xinyue.
Unexpectedly, the master was always against the imperial concubine, but in the end, she was the only one who cared about his future life.
With the words of the imperial concubine, she could ask the imperial doctor to take a look at her master.
But what everyone didn't expect was that that night, news of Liu Guiren's death came.
"How did you die?"
Wang Dequan lowered his head and answered the emperor's question: "It is said that after going to bed at night, Liu Guiren opened the door of his room and ran out and threw himself into the lake."
Whether he fell into the lake or because it was too dark at night to see what he fell into, no one knows.
But the person who reported it always had to clean himself to avoid being convicted, so if she committed suicide, it would have nothing to do with them.
Emperor Xuanwu nodded: "She was posthumously named Liu Zhaoyi and buried in the imperial concubine's mausoleum."
After death, mourning and honor are done for the living to see.
Jiang Xinyue sighed, feeling slightly sad.
It's not that Liu Guiren died, but that she had been in the palace for more than two years and had seen countless lives disappear like flowers. The flamboyant Xiao Ronghua and Liu Guiren ended up going crazy. How can people not sigh?
Sometimes she couldn't help but think, if these women's souls were in later generations, and their methods and talents had more room to display, would they still be so deliberately surrounding a man?
The answer is definitely no.
"What's wrong?"
On the comfortable dragon bed, Emperor Xuanwu hugged Jiang Xinyue from behind and rubbed her neck: "Are you unhappy?"
"No……"
With a muffled voice, she turned around and got into the emperor's arms, raising her head to look at him, with stars twinkling in her bright eyes.
"Your Majesty, I'll be honest with you. In fact, before I went to the palace, I didn't have very deep feelings for you. Those deep feelings can be towards you or anyone who will become my husband..."
When he said this, the emperor's hand holding Jiang Xinyue suddenly tightened, but he still gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, you continue."
"I was not favored when I was a child and was often bullied. My mother was jealous of my wife because of her beauty. I have very vague memories of my childhood. I don't know if I am deliberately trying to forget the things that caused me pain." I still really don’t remember anything about it.”
Warm tears wet the emperor's chest: "When I think about it now, I seem to be either being beaten or on the way to be beaten when I was a child. My father is not often at home, and my mother always asks me to endure it. When I grow up, I will Her appearance was more prosperous than that of my mother, so my father noticed me and started to train me. At that time, I told myself that I would never be harmed by anyone again."
Her eyelashes stained with tears trembled slightly, showing some true feelings, and her eyes were full of love: "You are the emperor, and you are destined to have many women in your life. If I love you, I will not be able to accept you and other women." If a woman has physical contact, I will go crazy. So I shrink into my own shell, unwilling to express my sincerity, and always have some reservations. I thought, if the emperor changes his mind one day, I can still keep it. Take care of your heart and don’t become too miserable.”
Jiang Xinyue played the role so affectionately that anyone would be confused. No wonder Emperor Xuanwu fell.
He pressed a kiss on her forehead distressedly: "You are right, your worries are normal. I really can't dismiss the Sixth Palace because it involves the previous dynasty. I don't want to cause turmoil in the government and the public. But Yue'er, I promise you that your worries are unnecessary. I will love you wholeheartedly and grow old with you. No one can bully you when I am here in the future, and I will protect you well."
Jiang Xinyue nodded: "I know that since I came to Qinzhou, the emperor did not choose to sacrifice my cousin, but took into account my mood and let the Qu family go. I know that the emperor is sincerely good to me. I Concubine... From that day on, I also opened my heart to the emperor."
If the emperor had not chosen to save Jiang Yuncai, the Qu family would have done more than just hand over the gold medal for immunity from death.
The entire Qu family will pay the price for this, instead of losing nothing except the death-free gold medal like now.
The Qu family is still the largest clan in Qinzhou.
It can be said that the emperor gave up the opportunity to eradicate the local snake of the Qu family for Jiang Xinyue.
Jiang Xinyue's heart is not made of stone.
She doesn't want to be assimilated by this era, and she doesn't want to become a concubine in the harem who complains about herself, but this era will not turn into an ideal world of equality between men and women and monogamy just because she is a time-traveling woman.
Can not change……
Then, hold on to the emperor's heart tightly and use his sincerity to get what you want.
