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

When Xiao Chengxu heard Xie Yaoqing mention the wooden hairpin with twin plum blossoms, his face turned extremely pale in an instant, as if all the blood color had been lost, and his lips trembled slightly uncontrollably, almost imperceptibly.

A few months ago, when Xiao Chengxu saw the wooden hairpin with twin plum blossoms for the first time, he liked it. However, now, the same hairpin made him extremely disgusted.

Xiao Chengxu could never forget that horrible scene. The twin-petaled plum blossom hairpin he personally gave to her pierced into the neck of his beloved and pierced deeply into her throat. Just like that, the life of the person he loved was taken away ruthlessly.

From then on, the wooden hairpin with twin plum blossoms became an indelible nightmare in Xiao Chengxu's mind. Whenever he thought of it, endless pain and regret welled up in his heart.

How nice it would be if there wasn't that wooden hairpin with twin plum blossoms.

Xiao Chengxu clearly knew that the problem was not with the double plum blossom hairpin. Without it, wouldn't Xie Yaoqing have ended her life in another way? For example, self-immolation.

But Xiao Chengxu blamed the hairpin and resented it for not existing.

It would be impossible for Xiao Chengxu to take out the wooden hairpin with twin plum blossoms at this moment, because he had destroyed it long ago. No one would keep a disgusting object around.

The existence of the twin plum blossom wooden hairpin is undoubtedly a reminder to Xiao Chengxu again and again, representing that Xie Yaoqing has died again and again.

Xie Yaoqing caught the subtle changes on Xiao Chengxu's face, his eyes flickered slightly, and he seemed to understand something.

Xiao Chengxu's strong reaction obviously showed that in his previous life he already knew that she would eventually choose to end her life with the twin plum blossom wooden hairpin.

The fire she set with her last breath might not have burned as fiercely as she had hoped, burning the cold palace and herself to ashes. Maybe it ignited a little spark, but ultimately failed to burn everything completely.

Fortunately, she did not choose to self-immolate. Dying in a blazing fire is tragic, but if there are any mistakes in the process, not only will it fail to achieve the goal, but it will cause more pain and may even lead to the embarrassing situation of not being able to die. In contrast, hitting the vital points directly is a more reliable way to ensure death while avoiding long-term torture.

Xie Yaoqing has always been a person who is afraid of trouble. If she fails to die, in Xiao Chengxu's eyes, she will be regarded as a hypocritical person who is trying to attract attention. Maybe he will think that this is just her old trick, trying to attract his attention by self-mutilation, just like before.

"What's wrong? Your Majesty can't take out the hairpin? But I remember that Your Majesty liked it very much and wanted to give it to me. Now I regret it and want to ask Your Majesty to give it back. Is it okay? Is it too late?"

Xie Yaoqing opened her red lips slightly, and every word she uttered was like the sharpest sword in the world, ruthlessly stabbing at Xiao Chengxu. It was as dense as a rain of arrows, leaving him with no way to avoid it. Every knife and sword pierced deeply into his body, leaving him covered in scars and bleeding.

"Qingqing, why do you want to tear out my heart? You know...

"Before Xiao Chengxu finished speaking, he was interrupted coldly by Xie Yaoqing.

"I don't know. Your Majesty, what do you think I should know? Why don't you tell me and resolve my confusion? Your Majesty is the richest man in the world, and he enjoys the whole world, so why is he so stingy that he can't even bear to take out a hairpin?"

There was a hint of sarcasm in Xie Yaoqing's tone.

Xiao Chengxu's expression turned a little ugly, but he still tried to remain calm. He took a deep breath and tried to explain: "It's not that I can't bear to part with that hairpin, it's just..."

However, his words were interrupted again by Xie Yaoqing.

"Just what? The emperor always has countless excuses."

Xiao Chengxu choked.

Our eyes met, we stared at each other, and I was speechless.

The atmosphere was stagnant. Xie Yaoqing, feeling restless, rubbed her temples. She really wanted Xiao Chengxu to disappear from her sight immediately.

Every time she saw him, it reminded her of those terrible memories, making her feel extremely heavy.

"It's getting late, Your Majesty, please go back."

Xie Yaoqing ordered them to leave without any hesitation.

She had had enough of the confrontation with Xiao Chengxu and didn't want to continue this meaningless quarrel.

However, Xiao Chengxu seemed not to have heard her words and still sat there, motionless.

Xie Yaoqing couldn't help but feel helpless and annoyed. Every word she said to Xiao Chengxu was a waste of time and extremely boring. She pulled the corners of her mouth slightly, thinking that Xiao Chengxu was so thick-skinned that it was rare to see him. He deserved the word "shameless".

"Your Majesty is unwilling to move. Does he want to stay here and sleep with me? I just wonder if Your Majesty is still able to sleep with me now? If you have the will but not the ability, it will be a joke."

Xie Yaoqing deliberately said these sarcastic words to humiliate Xiao Chengxu. As the king of a country, he should have been served by others, but now he was asked to serve him, and his masculine strength was questioned in person without mercy. No one could bear such a naked provocation.

However, to Xie Yaoqing's surprise, the expected departure did not occur.

Xiao Chengxu's expression remained calm, and he even began to undress.

"With pleasure, if you don't mind."

Xiao Chengxu's tone was as calm as usual, as if he was not affected at all.

This time, it was Xie Yaoqing's turn to be stunned.

What? Did she hear that right?

Xiao Chengxu wants to sleep with me?
