Mad Concubine: Phoenix Opera Nine Heavens

Chapter 188 Nothing to be sad about!
It was the first time for Rui Linglong to hear someone tell her a story, and she subconsciously turned her head to look at Feng Manshuo...

But at this time, on his usually cynical face, there was an indelible loneliness... It made her feel strange... He was telling the story in a low voice, especially emotional... As if, he was also one of them... …

She was inexplicable, didn't say anything, and listened to him silently.
"The emperor likes women, and naturally he wants to keep them for himself, so the same story happened to this woman. The emperor sent someone to check the background of the woman, only to find that the woman turned out to be the daughter of the governor of Yunzhou, so he was delighted The woman is the noble concubine in the palace. The woman flew up the branch and turned into a phoenix, and was admired by everyone. The emperor treated her very well at the beginning, and his favor for her made all the concubines jealous... But, the emperor's love, It was just a flash... Not long after, the emperor had a new favorite... This woman had already fallen in love with the emperor sincerely... However, the emperor seldom thought of her anymore... Even if she was born He won't even look at a prince, just give him a title, and let it go..." Feng Moshuo sighed, his eyes kept staring at the huge lake, as if he wanted to blend in with the night. General, melancholy...

Rui Linglong also followed his line of sight and looked around, only to feel that the calm heart once again felt empty... lonely...

"Finally, one time the emperor took the empress and several noble concubines up the mountain to pray for blessings. When the woman saw this lake, it was somewhat similar to Liyue Lake in Yunzhou. It reminded her that many years ago, the emperor was on this lake. At a glance, she fell in love with her. Therefore, she was ecstatic. She thought she had found a way to make the emperor pay attention to her again... So, she waited until the next year when the emperor took everyone up the mountain to pray for blessings. However, he specially sent The man arranged a bamboo raft, and she sang to him on the raft. But..." A sneer flashed in the windy tone, and he continued, "The emperor just praised her for singing well, and then left. It turns out that the emperor has long forgotten the past with her..."

The light in Feng Manshuo's eyes was like a flickering candle, which was finally blown out by the wind, gloomy without a trace of luster.

Looking at Feng Moshuo at this moment, Rui Linglong felt that she seemed to have never really understood him...

"From then on, the woman did not return to the palace, but stayed in the temple where the emperor went to pray for blessings once a year. She ate fast and recited Buddha's name. She took her three-year-old child and went boating on this lake from time to time...singing...for a long time. , this lake was given this name because of the story of the noble concubine..."

"Lonely Lake..." Rui Linglong couldn't help murmuring along with his words, only at this moment did he understand the meaning of the name, loneliness, loneliness...

At the end of the melancholy story, Rui Linglong was a little puzzled why Feng Manshuo brought her here and told her such a story...

At this moment, his eyes turned to her again, the eyes were as dark as a bottomless swamp, even she couldn't see what he was thinking.But he opened his mouth and said to her, "So, the most capricious thing in the world is the emotion between people, whether it's the love between a man and a woman, or between a father and a daughter, or between a mother and a child, they are all the same and full of variables. There's nothing to be sad about." When he said the last sentence, there was a hint of sarcasm and natural hair on his handsome face, as if he had already seen through the love in this world.

Rui Linglong narrowed her eyes slightly, she never thought that Feng Manshuo would say such a thing...
