The Queen sealed her heart and locked up her love, and the Emperor was trapped in the crematorium

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chengxu was stunned, and a trace of sadness flashed across his narrow and long phoenix eyes.

But in the end he did not force it. Instead, he put the honey water aside. He did not want to stand there to hinder Xie Yaoqing from getting up, so he stood up and made way.

Xie Yaoqing glanced at him unhappily and said in a light tone: "Your Majesty, please come in less often in the future. I am still young and don't want to be scared to death."

This is still in broad daylight, if it was at night, the scene would be even more unimaginable. Imagine, in the dead of night, there is a person standing by the bed like a piece of wood, just like a ghost that lingers. Not to mention that you will be awakened by the shock, even just thinking about it will make people feel creepy.

How did Feng Ning Zhiyu and the others do things? How could they let Xiao Chengxu in?

After thinking about it, Xie Yaoqing felt relieved. In fact, she couldn't blame Feng Ning Zhiyu and the others. After all, they were just palace maids and eunuchs. How could they stop Emperor Xiao Chengxu?

Xiao Chengxu said nothing, so Xie Yaoqing assumed that he had agreed, and then turned around and called Jue Xia in to serve her.

When Jue Xia came in, her face looked a little strange, and there was a hint of guilt in her eyes when she looked at Xie Yaoqing. Xie Yaoqing thought about it for a while and soon guessed the reason. This girl must have tried to stop Xiao Chengxu, but failed, so her mood was a little strange.

Xie Yaoqing gently patted Juexia's hand to express his comfort.

Although Xie Yaoqing did not ask, Xiao Chengxu took the initiative to tell the story.

When Xie Yaoqing learned that Concubine Qi was punished and demoted to Noble Lady Qi, her eyes moved slightly, revealing a look of surprise.

If she remembered correctly, in her previous life until the tenth year of Xihe, that is, before her death, Concubine Qi had always been the majestic and arrogant Concubine. In this palace, Concubine Qi was the only Concubine, with an extremely respected status, except for a few people.

Concubine Qi was always arrogant and domineering, causing a lot of trouble, but with the protection of the empress dowager, Concubine Qi was naturally like a fish in water and had the limelight. In addition, in the previous dynasty, the Qi family was very powerful and gave Xiao Chengxu a lot of support and help. Therefore, compared with other concubines, Xiao Chengxu was indeed much more tolerant towards Concubine Qi, and even the queen Xie Yaoqing was afraid of her.

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that Xiao Chengxu had fallen in love with Concubine Qi. After all, Concubine Qi was young, beautiful, graceful, and deeply in love with Xiao Chengxu, so maybe she could really make Xiao Chengxu fall in love with her.

However, it was precisely because of Xiao Chengxu's indulgence of Concubine Qi that Xie Yaoqing became jealous and her jealousy became stronger. She could not control herself and had wild thoughts, suspecting that Xiao Chengxu had been bewitched by Concubine Qi and could not extricate himself.

In addition, Concubine Qi often talked about the childhood sweethearts and cousins ​​between her and Xiao Chengxu, and Xiao Chengxu's attitude was also ambiguous. This made it difficult for Xie Yaoqing not to have wild thoughts. If the person who was indulged and favored by Xiao Chengxu was replaced by other concubines, Xie Yaoqing might not be so jealous. Because other concubines and Xiao Chengxu were not childhood sweethearts, nor were they cousins.

Xie Yaoqing made things difficult for Concubine Qi, and Concubine Qi was not to be outdone. She fought against Xie Yaoqing with all her might, causing a lot of trouble. The two fought overtly and covertly, and finally Xie Yaoqing fell.

Hearing these things now, Xie Yaoqing just found it ridiculous.

Why did Xiao Chengxu discipline Concubine Qi strictly in this life because of her outrageous words, but he didn't do so in his previous life? Didn't he know that Concubine Qi was arrogant and had never been respectful to her as the queen, and had always been provoking her in various ways? Everyone in the palace knew about this, so there was no reason why Xiao Chengxu didn't know about it. The reason why he kept silent was that he turned a blind eye and turned a deaf ear to it, pretending to be deaf and dumb.

The same person, just because he lost five years of memory, behaved so differently before and after.

It still goes like the saying: People's minds change easily, but it's said that people's minds are easily changed.

Human hearts are always the most fickle, changing silently without anyone noticing.

The time when they were in love and cared deeply for each other was not necessarily false, but it could not withstand the erosion of time. The deep friendship was reduced little by little, and finally there was nothing left.

If it was Xiao Chengxu five years later, perhaps Concubine Qi would not be punished today. After all, Xiao Chengxu at that time would even give the position of empress without hesitation.

Xie Yaoqing curled her lips and said sarcastically, "Your Majesty is punishing Concubine Qi so severely. Aren't you afraid that the Queen Mother will be furious when she finds out about this? Will the Qi family be dissatisfied when they hear the news?"

As the ruler of a country, he had to worry about this and that. He frequently used the harem to check and balance the previous dynasty. To be honest, Xiao Chengxu was a pretty pathetic emperor.

Moreover, Xiao Chengxu was a typical person who would turn his back on people. Once someone was no longer of use to him, he would immediately abandon them. There was once a concubine who was like this. When her family lost power, Xiao Chengxu sent her to a remote palace and never cared about her again. He let those people in the palace who were accustomed to flattering the powerful and bullying the weak, whether they were concubines or palace maids, step on them and add insult to injury.

Not long ago, Xiao Chengxu was still chatting with the concubine about everything under the sun, talking about the past and present, but in the blink of an eye, he could be so heartless and abandon her mercilessly.

This shows that Xiao Chengxu was a heartless and profit-seeking person. He was so ruthless to other concubines, and the same was true for her, the queen. Later, the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion was about to collapse, and her good days were over.

"I acted according to the rules and did nothing wrong. If I didn't punish the person who should be punished, wouldn't that be confusing the hierarchy? My mother is now resting in peace and not caring about worldly affairs. As for the Qi family, why should I take them seriously?"

Xiao Chengxu's voice was very calm, but it sounded a little strange to Xie Yaoqing.

The Queen Mother actually rested and recuperated? This was really unlike her past behavior.

Although the Queen Mother was no longer young, she did not seem to enjoy her old age, but instead caused trouble from time to time. She even tried to intervene in the management of palace affairs, under the pretext that she was worried that she was too young and inexperienced to handle the heavy responsibility of managing palace affairs.

But why didn't she think about her origins? She was not from a small family. Although her mother died when she was young, her father and brother loved her very much, but they were not overly doting. She had learned everything, whether it was playing the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, or the art of managing a household. Which noble girl in the capital was not trained to be the mistress of the house from a young age? If she couldn't manage the household, wouldn't she be looked down upon and ridiculed by her husband's family when she got married?
