atypical prostitute

Chapter 248 Out of control, strangled to death

The incense ashes in the Boshan furnace have long been burned, but there is still a sweet and soft smell in the air. Inside the hibiscus tent, the curtains hang down, and there is a sound of greed.

The woman quietly got out of bed, casually ordered a silk dress, walked to the dressing table, sat down, and Qianqian picked up the ivory comb with her ten fingers, and casually dressed in the mirror.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she was also a little dazed.

The corners of the eyes are dimpled, the cheeks are flushed, and the lips are smiling, as soft as rose perfume brought from the Western Regions.

This is the face of a stupid woman trapped in love, she made a self-deprecating gesture.

This is a relationship that is destined to have no ending. The relationship between him and her can only be played on the spot, pretending to be a snake, but she still puts her heart into it unknowingly.

Because of the cold, or because of loneliness?
I don't know, and I don't want to know.

The fingernails were dipped in rouge, and they scraped viciously across the mirror surface, making a piercing sound, leaving a streak of blood red on the mirror surface.

"Who made you unhappy again?"

Behind her, there was the rustling sound of silk rubbing against each other. She didn't need to look back, she also knew that it was him who had come.

"Apart from you, who else would dare to make me feel painless?"

She spoke wearily, her words vaguely resentful.

King Wei walked up to the woman, sat down loudly, and looked lustfully at her.

Pei Ling'er didn't care about his gaze, she continued to do her makeup in front of the mirror, but every time she moved, her fragrant shoulders and jade skin were faintly exposed.

Thinking of yesterday's love, the corner of Wei Wang's mouth was slightly drunk, he twisted the snail, leaned forward, and said intimately: "Do you need me to draw eyebrows for you?"

"What do you think?" Pei Ling'er smiled sweetly and looked straight at him.

So the man pinched her small chin, drew it carefully and gently, and sighed: "I really don't understand what the emperor likes. I have you, a beauty who can smile and smile, but I don't know anything about Queen Ye." There is a soft spot for women who are beautiful and don't know how to be interesting."

"Empress Wu is an amazing woman in the world, not something we vulgar fans can compare to."

Pei Ling'er giggled, suddenly grabbed his thrush's hand, and said sadly: "Wang Ye's thrush is so skillful, Wangfei is really lucky."

"Her? After tasting your peerless delicacy, who will be interested in her plate of chaff?"

Wei Wang said jokingly, pushed Pei Linger's hand away, and continued to draw.

Hearing this, Pei Linger's heart immediately eased a lot. Even though the love in front of her was veiled with calculations, she still liked this man, the warmth brought by his body, and the sense of security when she slept with him.

Yin'er is only five years old, and her natal family has not lived up to expectations. Without the support of King Wei, she, the queen mother, would have struggled a long time ago.

Whether it is for personal needs or for political life, before Yin'er really grows up and takes back the imperial power, she must tie herself to King Wei's chariot and share his fate with him.

But the way forward remains uncertain.

"...If you tasted something more delicious than mine, would you abandon me?"

Because of uneasiness, Pei Ling'er grabbed his hand, buried her head on his shoulder, and asked sweetly.

The man stroked her face tenderly, and said, "How could there be more delicious food than you?"

Pei Ling'er raised her head and said with a smile: "There is a plate in the capital. Regardless of her background or appearance, she is more noble and delicious than me."

King Wei was speechless, pinching her face and said: "That's my cousin, no matter how daring and unscrupulous I am, I can't do anything to my cousin? What's more, she is the wife of a great general, and I don't know what is involved behind it. No matter how many forces, I am afraid that they will cause a whole lot of trouble before they taste the fishy smell."

"So in your eyes, I'm just a convenient woman who doesn't have to worry about getting into trouble after eating?"

Pei Ling'er spoke unhappily, biting his shoulder.

"Ah! It hurts!"

Wei Wang exaggeratedly shouted, but he said with a mouth full of honey: "You, you really still have a heart for what happened back then."

For a long time, there have been rumors in the palace that Pei Ling'er was able to be favored by the late emperor because she resembled Fu Lici's words and deeds.Although these rumors have disappeared without a trace since she became the empress dowager, this cloud still hangs over Pei Linger's heart to this day.

Even though King Wei regarded her as a narrow-minded woman, Pei Ling'er couldn't help but care.

Because, it is true!
The late emperor's true love was Empress Ye, but Fu Lici was also an unusual existence for the late emperor.

Empress Ye once said that if Fu Lici was not the eldest princess' daughter, there must be a place for her in the harem.

And Emperor Wu married Fu Lici into Ye's family because he sincerely hoped to have the same blood as Ye's, but Queen Ye was barren.

That's why the first son of Ye's parents was born, which alarmed the late emperor who was lingering in the sick bed!

Pei Ling'er knew that even if there were no signs of congealing lotus fragrances and vermilion birds coming to congratulate her, the late emperor would still like the son of Ye's parents. He needed a child who integrated the blood of the Xiao family and the Ye family, and finally handed over the world to the Xiao family at the same time. and the descendants of the Ye family.

"Why don't you mind, the late emperor loved them too much, it always makes me unsteady."

Pei Ling'er spoke softly, and ordered the female officer to come forward and present a secret to King Wei.

"What is this?" Wei Wang casually asked after receiving the secret report.

"Yesterday, I got a new report that the Turkic State Teacher sent envoys to the Central Plains just to send a New Year's gift to the Ye family."

Pei Ling'er pretended to be unfair and said that she knew that Ye Chuan and Wei Wang both held the auxiliary power, so it was inevitable that there would be disagreements.It's a pity that the first emperor took precautions and left a legacy, strictly prohibiting the king of Wei from interfering in military affairs, forcing them to maintain the current delicate balance.

He also blamed himself for overreacting to the matter of Ye's second son, which angered King Wei and led Ye Chuan back to court, making the situation even more complicated.

Although she still doesn't know why the King of Wei suddenly forbids anyone to pursue the matter of the Son of Heaven, but she also understands most of it after contacting the information about the birth of King Wei's young son half a month ago.

There is only one person sitting on the throne, no matter how much tenderness and sweetness there are on weekdays, when it comes to the bloody struggle for power, she can rely on herself, He Yin'er.

Sure enough, after reading the report of the Turkic state teacher sending envoys to see the Ye family, King Wei's face remained unchanged. He returned the report to the original place, and said with a smile, "I thought you found out something serious?"

"Isn't this a big deal?"

"Yesterday, when the Turkic envoy was giving gifts, I was behind the screen."

When Pei Ling'er heard this, a trace of unnaturalness flashed across her gentle face, and she said in embarrassment: "... I was overthinking."

"Recently the state affairs are in turmoil, the queen mother can't distinguish the importance for a while, but it's inevitable."

King Wei spoke uprightly, but he didn't mention the content of the Turkic envoy's New Year's greetings.

Pei Ling'er couldn't sit still anymore, she bit her bullet and said: "But I don't know what kind of rare item the national teacher sent to make the prince so happy?"

"Twenty heads."

"Human head?"

Wei Wang said coldly: "It is the head of the envoy of the Guangming God Sect. This time, the Guangming God Sect is willing to ask the Turks to borrow troops to fight against our dynasty at the cost of the ten countries in the Western Regions. But Zuo Xianwang and the national teacher are people of faith. The Guangming God Sect made mistakes first, not to mention that the Turks had an alliance with us early on, so how could they break their promises?"

"——So the heads of the envoys were sent to Ye's house as a New Year gift?"

King Wei nodded, fondling the woman's black hair.

Because of this, Pei Ling'er smelled something else.

Sure enough, my queen mother is an empty air, even the Turkic people sent the New Year's greetings to Ye's family in private!
She thought sourly, gnashing her teeth even more in her heart.

However, King Wei didn't know what she was thinking. When the blue hair ran across his fingers, he couldn't help sighing: "It's just that, the prestige of the Ye family in the army can no longer be limited."

"My lord can use the reason that the national treasury is empty, not to allow Ye Chuan to go on the expedition." Pei Linger said innocently.

As soon as this remark came out, King Wei's smile froze immediately. He stood up and said angrily: "The Guangming God Sect despises the heaven. If we don't send troops to attack, it will make people laugh at us as weak and deceitful! What's more, at present, the Ye family has suffered a great loss. The eldest son, who is famous as a teacher, Turkic beheaded the envoy of the Guangming God Sect, it is imperative... This battle is not that we don't want to fight, so we can not fight!"

"But……"

"You can object to the expedition, if you don't mind the reputation of the Queen Mother as weak and bullied! Back then, the first emperor beat the Turks to shame and knelt down to beg for peace!"

The cold accusation exhausted all the remaining tenderness in the palace, Pei Ling'er raised her head and looked at King Wei.

This man, in the final analysis, is only for himself.

"……I see."

She said sadly, lowering her head.

Seeing her aggrieved appearance, King Wei also knew that what he had just said was a bit exaggerated, and he was about to coax her tenderly, but he saw a confidant at the door of the palace poking his head, hesitating to speak, so he put on furs, opened the door and left.

Pei Ling'er, who was left behind again, bit Yan Hong angrily.

why!
Why is no one willing to help me!

She thought painfully, grabbed the eight-treasure enamel incense box, and smashed the glazed mirror to pieces with a bang.

The female officials panicked and hurried forward to clean up, but she was still angry and walked barefoot on the cold gold brick floor, letting the cold invade her heart.

……

……

Gently, a brocade robe fell on her shoulders, and a faint fragrance filled her arms. She turned around expectantly, and saw an unexpected face.

"why you?"

Wearing a moonlight brocade gown, he is handsome and handsome, with a romantic attitude.

It was Chu Qing.

"The Queen Mother is curious about my appearance here?"

He smiled and carried himself like a fairy.

"This is the harem!"

A harem where outsiders are forbidden!
"But I saw His Royal Highness King Wei."

Chu Qing said nonchalantly, the embarrassing things about the royal family were tinged with romantic elegance when he said them out of his mouth.

Pei Linger's face turned red immediately.

"……you--"

She angrily threw down the brocade robe that was covering his shoulders, but Chu Qing didn't think it was a pest. He squatted down, picked up the robe, put it on his arm, and said respectfully: "Don't worry, queen mother, I am not interested in harem romance." It's just that I accidentally saw it in the corridor just now, and I couldn't help but want to remind you."

"You are looking for me, what is the matter!"

She spoke viciously.

"I just want to tell the Queen Mother that from today onwards, Jun Fengxi and I have nothing to do with each other. No, it's irreconcilable!"

It was still calm and indifferent, but when Jun Fengxi's name was mentioned, there was a touch of anger.

Pei Ling'er couldn't help being startled, and said: "He is your uncle, what evidence do you have to prove that you are not lying to me?"

Chu Qing smiled: "There is no need to prove it, because it is not necessary."

"Okay," Pei Ling'er sighed, knowing that although she was the empress dowager, she was just an ant in front of these cultivators, but she was curious, so she said, "Then at least tell me the reason for the breakup."

Chu Qing was silent for a long time, and a voice full of resentment cracked from the ground: "He killed my master! He killed my master who treated me like a brother like a father! His senior brother! Just because he is the guardian of the Light God Sect!"
