It's the middle of winter, and there's heavy snow outside the window.
The strong wind slapped the doors and windows wantonly, making a "clanging" sound. A bit of cold air squeezed into the house, washing away the last warmth in the room. Several maids shivered with the cold, adding fire while secretly He looked at the woman on the bed.
The woman was in her early twenties, still very young, but her face was pale, her eyes were hollow, and she looked lifeless, as if she was about to die soon.
"Squeak——"
The person outside the door finally made up his mind, opened the door, and walked into the house with heavy steps. He first glanced at the woman lying on the bed, and sighed quietly: "Ayao, Qing Huan... I don't want to be a concubine. "
Yun Chuyao felt cold all over her body!
She clenched her fists, but she couldn't feel any inner strength. Her originally healthy body was becoming more and more depleted due to ten years of confinement. She took a deep breath and managed to calm down. She gritted her teeth and spoke word by word. He suddenly said: "Ji Jingheng, I want to make peace with you."
Ji Jingheng was stunned for a moment.
"Jinmei," Yun Chuyao gritted her teeth and used the last bit of strength in her body to say reluctantly: "Bei Mo!"
"wait wait wait!"
Ji Jingheng panicked: "Ayao, I, we can't reconcile..."
He lowered his head, not daring to look into Yun Chuyao's eyes, and only whispered: "Qing Huan, Qing Huan said that she wanted to get in cleanly, so we can't make peace, we can only... break up. "
Yun Chuyao's hand shook, and all the pens and ink in her arms fell to the ground with a clang, smashing into pieces!
"What did you say?"
Ji Jingheng felt guilty!
I dare not look at him at all!
"That's right!"
Suddenly, a familiar and old voice rang from outside the door. Ji's mother rushed into the house with a large group of maids and maids, and said with a ferocious expression: "My son is the one who will divorce you!"
"You are presumptuous!"
Yun Chuyao had a cold face, trying to maintain her dignity as a princess of the Jin Dynasty, and spoke word by word: "Have you forgotten that I am Princess Changle of the Jin Dynasty, the only daughter of the current Queen Mother, and the emperor's biological sister? Do you really want Ji Jingheng to divorce me?"
"Ah."
Ji's mother sneered: "You can't even tell whether you are a princess of the Jin Dynasty, or a legitimate princess? Yun Chuyao, don't say you are not a princess, even if you are a legitimate princess, so what? You don't really think that His Majesty will do anything for you Make the decision, right? To tell you the truth, if Heng'er wanted to break up with you, he would have found out from His Majesty a long time ago!"
Yun Chuyao felt her head buzzing, like it exploded!
Isn't she the princess of Jin Dynasty?
How can it be!
She is the Queen's biological daughter. Even if the Queen does not love her, even if the Queen prefers Song Qinghuan as the princess, she is still the Queen's daughter.
Now someone told her that she might not be the daughter of her father and mother, how could she believe it? !
And...Brother Emperor.
Does he really want to see himself abandoned?
"What nonsense!"
Yun Chuyao was slightly panicked, and her anger grew stronger. As soon as she opened her mouth, her already pale face turned red, and she looked more and more sickly. She gritted her teeth and pretended to be calm and said: "Brother Huang and my mother My compatriots, how can you just watch me being abandoned! You pretend to preach the imperial edict, and you are not afraid that the emperor will punish you for your sins!"
Ji's mother sneered, looked at Yun Chuyao with disdain in her eyes, and said, "Heng'er, why don't you write a letter of divorce quickly?"
"you dare!"
Yun Chuyao was furious and said sternly: "Okay! You have to write this divorce letter, right? In this case, your Ji family is unkind, then don't blame me, Yun Chuyao, for being unjust! Jinmei! Help me into the palace!"
"Ayao!"
Ji Jingheng's face changed slightly!
But Ji's mother smiled meaningfully, as if watching a good show, and said, "Heng'er, why are you stopping her? Let her go. I want to see if His Majesty will make the decision for her."
Yun Chuyao felt a chill in her heart.
Why isn't Ji's mother panicking? Could it be...
No!
She couldn't help but shudder, and thought to herself, although the imperial brother was very unhappy with her, considering that she was his biological sister, he would never be so cruel to her. The top priority was to ask to see the imperial brother. Let him show you a way out!
Thinking like this, Yun Chuyao stumbled out again!
In a short period of time, she fell more than a dozen times. Her face, body, and legs were all covered with scars, and her hands and feet were red and swollen from the cold. She was shivering from the cold, but no matter how biting the cold wind was, or how deep the winter wind was to her bones, she still couldn't. Yun Chuyao's heart was far less cold than at this moment.
Separated by a wall.
Her close relatives are celebrating Song Qing's birthday.
The warmth, the smell of meat, the laughter, and the blessings all have nothing to do with Yun Chuyao. She is like an ugly mouse hiding in the dark, who can only pry into the happiness of others. No wonder the palace people looked sympathetic along the way. Looking at herself, no wonder Ji's mother is not afraid of filing a lawsuit...
It turns out that today is Song Qinghuan’s birthday.
But they all forgot.
Today is also Yun Chuyao’s birthday.
"...What is she here for?"
In the hall, a young voice full of disgust came out. It was Yun Chuyao's younger brother Yun Yanyu. He said irritably: "Don't she know that today is sister Qing Huan's birthday! She must ask for bad luck!"
"Ayu."
The Queen Mother said helplessly: "Our family finally got together, why should we be in a bad mood because of her?"
family……
Yun Chuyao's mind was shocked and she was in a daze. She thought her heart had died long ago, but she didn't expect that she would still be extremely sad and angry because of her mother's words. It turned out that in the eyes of her mother, they and Song Qinghuan were just one family. Then I Woolen cloth? Who am I?
Her figure was swaying slightly, her face was as white as paper, and she could only kneel on the ground, desperately listening to the laughter in the hall.
After an unknown amount of time, her knees were numb and her thin body was covered in heavy snow, almost turning into an ice sculpture, when the door finally opened.
Song Qinghuan was wearing a crescent-white moire cape and walked out of the hall surrounded by a group of people. She seemed very happy with a thick smile on her lips. But the moment she saw Yun Chuyao, her face turned pale and she exclaimed!
"Qing Huan."
The emperor frowned, quietly stood in front of Song Qinghuan, and whispered: "Don't look at her."
Yun Yanyu's face also changed slightly, and he strode forward, completely protecting Song Qinghuan behind him, and angrily yelled at Yun Chuyao: "Yun Chuyao! Look at what you look like now! I'm not afraid of scaring Qinghuan." elder sister!"
Yun Chuyao felt great pain in her heart!
This is her biological brother, the biological brother who she raised and taught him how to read and understand!
But she didn't give up. She forced herself to climb to the front of the Queen Mother. She prostrated on the ground and cried blood every word: "Mother is on high. The unfilial daughter Chuyao is here to bow down! Mother! The Ji family has betrayed their faith and not only abandoned their son. I have done martial arts, put my son under house arrest, and even tried to abandon my son. I beg my mother to make the decision for my son!"
"Yun Chuyao, you are unfilial as a daughter, unkind as an elder, and unvirtuous as a wife," the emperor said, with an unconcealable coldness in his voice, and asked her slowly: "Why can't the Ji family divorce you? "
Yun Chuyao's heart throbbed, but she turned a deaf ear to Yun Yanchen's words. She only looked at the Queen Mother stubbornly, as if looking at her last life-saving straw.
"Ayao."
The Queen Mother sighed softly and looked at Yun Chuyao with compassion in her eyes. She said, "You know, Qing Huan from the Ai family is used to being squeamish and cannot be a concubine."
"puff--"
A big mouthful of blood spurted out!
Yun Chuyao's body softened and she fell to the ground. Despair surged into her heart like a tide, and grief spread from her limbs to her body. But she clenched her fists tightly, and her dark eyes were on fire. She burst into the flames of anger because she was more resentful than painful! Hate even more!
She wished she could tear their ugly faces to pieces!
Because Song Qinghuan couldn't be a concubine, she, Yun Chuyao, had no choice but to be abandoned!
Because Song Qinghuan is their darling, it is wrong for her, Yun Chuyao, to even be alive and can only be trampled on by others!
Why!
Why!
"ah!"
Song Qinghuan was startled, covered her mouth with her little hand, and exclaimed: "Brother Imperial! Look! Sister Chuyao is vomiting blood! Hurry, call the imperial doctor!"
Yun Yanchen's face darkened: "Qing Huan, you are so kind!"
"unlucky!"
Yun Yanyu also spoke out in disgust: "She has to make herself uncomfortable on this great day. I don't have a vicious princess like her, huh! If she wants to lie here and pretend to be dead, then let her pretend, mother. Brother Huang, Sister Qinghuan, let’s go!”
"Can……"
"Leave her alone!" Yun Yanyu sneered: "It's best if she freezes to death!"
The Queen Mother sighed: "Chu Yao's temper should be controlled. That's all. Qing Huan, let's go."
The footsteps gradually faded away.
The person lying on the ground never moved.
The snow is getting heavier.
