After all, who lost whom: broken glass

Chapter 20 Lin Lang's boudoir (2)
Such infatuation, for the sake of the position in Qian'an Palace, finally failed... The whole thing was just a disappointment...

Rong Yu suddenly felt sorry for that woman, she raised her head to look at the face in the mirror, her breath suddenly became stagnant, and the Queen Mother's words flashed in her mind:

"... until a bird called Nightingale, standing on its branch in the brightest moonlight, sticks the thorns into its chest, and then bleeds, dripping every drop. On the buds that are not yet open, the bird has to endure such pain and sing, singing all night, and the flowers will bloom at dawn-people in that country say that the song of the nightingale is the best in the world Listen, and the flowers it pours out with blood are also the most beautiful in the world... That kind of flower is called a rose..."

She has never seen a rose in her life, but when she saw the flower on the side of the bronze mirror, what she saw in her eyes and what she thought in her heart was nothing but those two words—it turned out to be like this, so delicate and bright red Because it is too beautiful, it makes people feel unreasonable sadness-because such a beautiful flower will wither...and the flowers inserted by the bronze mirror are in full bloom, and even the elites on the petals can be seen. The dewdrops... Rong Yu was shocked, how could there be dewdrops on the flowers in such a late night?Could it be that—Xin Yu just came here?
She grabbed the copper pillar by the bed and couldn't help trembling. At this moment, she suddenly heard a sigh, a very low voice, but she still recognized it immediately, it was the voice of Prince Pingjun Liuluo.

Rong Yu's hands and feet went numb, and he immediately thought: Lin Lang's boudoir... is naturally in the Prince Pingjun's mansion, and it's really normal for King Pingjun to appear here.

"My lord, it's late at night, let's go back." A slightly old female voice came from outside.

Liu Luo said lightly: "Go down, I want to stay here alone for a while."

"My lord, the previous king has made a confession that the lord is not allowed to enter this room. It is a big violation of the previous king's intention for the slave to let the lord in. The lord should not make things difficult for the slave." Mother's room?Why?Could it be that he knew the existence of this tunnel, and was afraid that his son would accidentally bump into the emperor's whereabouts and be killed?
But why would Xin Yu kill Lin Lang's son? The word "Lin Lang" was his Achilles' heel, and he couldn't get rid of it throughout his life.

Liu Luo said: "My father is dead."

The old female voice continued to speak, but Liu Luo slowly repeated: "My father is dead." At this point, the two sides faced each other silently for a moment, and finally the old female voice said: "Yes." Then the footsteps gradually distant sound.

Candlelight came out from outside the screen, and something rose from behind the screen, condensing into various shapes, the taller and thinner... Rong Yu's expression changed—it turned out to be smoke!what is he burningWhat is he burning in Lin Lang's room!
Rong Yu stood up suddenly, the bead chain in his hand moved and hit the copper pillar, the sound was clearer.She was stunned for a moment, and the person outside the screen had already shouted vigilantly: "Who!" Stepping in, seeing a face that looked like Fei Tian in the smoke, he was startled at first, and then choked up and shouted: "Mother!" He took a step forward and said softly: "Is it you?" The voice was so soft and wronged, Rong Yu couldn't help thinking, if Lin Lang could see him like this, would she have chosen to be the emperor's dead man many years ago without hesitation?

She dared not speak, but looked at him tearfully.

Liu Luo seemed to want to reach out to her, but he retracted it in the middle of the air, and he said, "Mother, don't go... can you... can you stay here with me for a while... for a while." Such a sad look , even Rong Yu couldn't refuse, she nodded slightly.

Liu Luo had a look of surprise on his face, and he smiled with tears in his eyes: "I knew, I knew you would be willing to see me... Mother, are you down here? My father... father passed away, you see him No, he has always missed you very much, and I also... miss you very much... miss you very much..." His voice was choked up, and his face was full of sadness.

"Do you like the flowers that I asked Aunt Zhu to change? Dad said this kind of flower is called a rose. He said that you liked it very much when you were born, so you have always planted it in Ningyu Pavilion. Mom, I will give you the best one every day." , Do you... like it?" He looked at her eagerly, her eyes were sore, she just tried her best to hold back, nodded her head vigorously, joy appeared in Liu Luo's eyes, and he said excitedly: "I knew it, I just knew it I know..." At the end of the words, tears fell down, and Rong Yu stood there dumbfounded, as if she was Lin Lang, seeing her child alone and helpless, and the people around her, holding great power, in high positions, always calculating and making peace Beware of him, and he is just a child... Both parents are dead, and there is no one to rely on in the world.She wanted to reach out and hug him to make him cry, but in the end she just stood there motionless with mournful eyes.

——If she died, her child would be in the same situation 20 years later.

Liu Luo said: "Mother, you are willing to show up to see me, that is to say, you don't blame me for what I did, right...you...do you hate him too? He forced you to death, right, I will definitely Take back what belongs to me, under the Nine Springs, so that you and dad can rest in peace." After saying these few words, his expression changed, and he said, "Mother, don't worry."

Rong Yu knew that what he said must be a matter of collusion with King Rui and King Qin, and that "he" must be referring to the emperor.She wanted to shake her head, but she couldn't make up her mind - if it was really Lin Lang's soul standing here, would she shake her head or nod?She thought about it for a while, and her face became more and more serious, but she didn't say a word after all.

Seeing such a change in her face, Liu Luo was terrified and thought: Could it be that my mother disapproved of my actions.

So he said again: "Mother, don't worry, I won't kill him. Dad told me, I won't kill him... But do you know that my aunt died too, and she was poisoned by him just like you. Huju has raised a woman who looks exactly like you... how many are there, but every time I hear the news, I feel like a thousand arrows piercing my heart... Mother, do you know that he dares to insult you like this! "

Seeing the anger between his brows, Rong Yu mentioned himself again. With such a resentful tone, he was so frightened that he couldn't stand for a moment. He moved his hand to hold the copper pillar, and only heard another ding, and Liu Luo's expression changed. He shouted, "Who are you!"

Rong Yu knew that the matter had been revealed—how could ghosts have entities?Even if she came across the copper pillar, she should pass through it as if there was nothing—she rolled her eyes in a hurry, leaned back, her face was pale, and she was in a coma.Hearing Liu Luo suspiciously in his ear: "Could it be that Niang borrowed her body to come out to meet me? Alas, I was the one to be abrupt, what should I do now, I startled my mother away."

He regretted it a lot, and suddenly remembered something, hurried to the front hall to extinguish the soul-returning incense, thinking that it could be used next time.

He was originally a suspicious person, but his mother's death was always a pain in his heart. He had been thinking about and thinking about it day and night for decades.

The soul-returning incense was gifted by a quack warlock, so naturally he paid a thousand gold price.He didn't believe it at first, but this sorcerer was very famous in the capital, and many dignitaries in the city patronized him and had a good reputation, so he was dubious.Unexpectedly, when the incense of returning soul was ignited, his mother actually appeared to see him in person. Although she borrowed someone else's body, she finally saw him.

He looked at the woman on the ground very hesitant, killing her was a trivial matter, but if killing her mother would prevent her from seeing him again, wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss?

Conflicted in his heart, he couldn't help bending down to look at this woman carefully, she was very luxuriously dressed, especially the bead chain on her wrist.With a thought in his heart, he took off the bead chain and looked at it. There seemed to be fine lines on the live clasp of the bead chain. When he looked at the light, it turned out to be the word "Xin Yu"!
In an instant, it was like wildfire, and the ground was covered with ashes.

He already knew who she was, except for that beloved concubine Rong Yu who resembled his mother, who else could wear such a treasure?But how did she get here?Is it really a coincidence?
He let out a long sigh and said to himself: Everything will be discussed after she wakes up.

Rong Yu woke up at dusk of the second day.

She pretended to be unconscious, but because she was so tired, she fell into a deep sleep. When she opened her eyes, she saw that the clouds were like fire, and it was already evening—but she didn't know if anyone was looking for her in the palace. The Empress Dowager should cover up the disappearance of the Compassionate Ning Palace.

Their mother and son already had a knot in their hearts, and her disappearance would only make things worse.

While worrying about the affairs in the palace, she sat up blankly and asked: "What place is this?" The maid at the side saw her wake up and hurriedly informed Liu Luo, but Liu Luo arrived after a while, and Rong Yu was still dazed. Ask: "Where is this? Where am I?" Seeing Liu Luo, he was stunned for a moment, and then, ignoring the defenses of men and women, he grabbed his skirt and said, "What is this place?"

Liu Luo saw that she was still a little idiotic in her actions, and her eyes were full of bewilderment, she already had [-]% to [-]% confidence in her heart, and said softly: "Don't worry, empress, this is the residence of Xiaowang."

Rong Yu wondered: "I rested in the Compassionate Ning Palace last night, so how could I be in the Prince's Mansion of Pingjun?"

Liu Luo said: "Rong Xiaowang will report it in detail." Rong Yu was amused in his heart, but he put on a look of listening attentively.Liu Luo retreated and said, "Your Majesty, don't you remember what happened last night?"

Rong Yu naturally shook his head and said: "Last night, I fell asleep after chatting with Hanyan for a few words. It was still early at that time—what time is it now?"

Liu Luo didn't answer her question, but only looked at her with serious thoughts, walked back and forth a few steps with her hands behind her back, and said, "So...the empress won't go back to the palace for now."

Rong Yu's complexion changed, and he said, "What's the reason? I disappeared in the Palace of Compassion and Peace, and the palace is still in chaos!"

Liu Luo smiled coldly and said: "Don't ask so many questions, your empress knows my tricks. If I say I can't go back to the palace, I just can't." Rong Yu guessed his thoughts, probably he really thought that only by borrowing his own body can he go back. The soul met him, so he wanted to keep himself by his side at all costs—but how did the palace explain it?She looked angry and said: "Unless you have a way to convince the emperor that I am no longer alive, otherwise even if you dig three feet, he will definitely find me."

What she said was not groundless, the child in her belly was the heaviest weight - she believed that Xin Yu could let her go, but she didn't believe that Xin Yu would give up one of her children so easily.

Liu Luo said: "He won't be thinking about coming out to look for you in the near future, so please don't worry about it!"

At this moment, Rong Yu already regretted the actions of last night. Hearing this, he couldn't help but think: Could it be...they have already done something?Xin Yu... is he still alive?When this thought came together, my heart was suddenly in a state of confusion.She once cooperated with Liu Luo to save her life, but since she knew that she had flesh and blood in her belly, she had given up this idea. Now——have they already done it?
Thinking of Xin Yu, the more she thought about it, the more confused she became, so she had to throw it aside and asked Liu Luo, "Then how does Duke Ping plan to deal with me?"

Liu Luo shook her head and said: "Your Majesty is serious, how dare you say dispose of it? Liu Luo just wants to bring your Majesty along with you."

"You mean, you want to take me as an envoy to the country of Jing?" Rong Yu's face sank, but Liu Luo said nonchalantly: "Who says I'm going to the country of Jing, I just plan to go to the border—isn't it like your mother Do you wish?" He deliberately slowed down the last few words, as if squeezed out from between his teeth, Rong Yu shivered coldly, she thought silently: So he actually hates me so much?
For some reason, she didn't want him to hate her—maybe it was because of Lin Lang, after all, she was the last patriarch of her Tang Sect.
