Chapter 14

Wei Liao felt dreamless and peaceful this time, and in a trance, he always felt that Fu Xiru was still by his side, and when he woke up, he became even angrier.

It was late at night outside, Ziqiong came in to check on his condition, she was shocked when she met a pair of eyes shining brightly in the shadow of the bedside lamp.Call him tentatively: "Your Majesty?"

Wei Liao was still angry at first, but when she woke him up, he slid lazily into the bed, and felt that his body was unwell, and became even more annoyed: "He left the palace? When did he leave?"

As soon as he spoke, he realized that his voice was also hoarse, and Wei Liao was annoyed.I just felt that the bed was too soft and the brocade quilt was too thick, so I kicked off half of the quilt and took a few breaths, Zi Qiong brought the prepared warm water in time, served him a few sips, and then answered him softly: " Master Fu went out while the palace gate hadn't been unlocked, and there would be a curfew any later."

She knew what Wei Liao was angry with, and to some extent she meant to excuse Fu Xiru.Her temperament can't be changed, she only speaks kind words and rarely offends others, especially Wei Liao is getting more and more lonely, and she doesn't want to easily make him feel bad for anyone.

It's so naive that people don't know what to say.

Wei Liao was clearly brought up by her, but looking at her now, he felt like going back to the past, and rolled his eyes indecently: "Okay, don't speak up for him, is it just because of this that I can still cure him? Is it a crime of respect?"

Zi Qiong just smiled, turned around and put the cup away, and picked the wick again: "Does Your Majesty want to take a bath, or continue to sleep?"

In fact, Fu Xiru had already wiped his body and cleaned everything that needed to be cleaned, but Wei Liao had slept for too long, his heart was at peace, and the hall was warm, so he was sweating unknowingly.He has always been unwilling to give up, and Zi Qiong noticed that it was hot when he kicked the quilt just now, now that she raised it, he simply sat up: "I can't sleep anymore, you can also talk to me by the way."

Ziqiong agreed, lowered her eyebrows and avoided things she shouldn't look at, turned around and went out to arrange hot water, and then came to invite him in.

Taking a bath at the moment is still considered a luxury, and bathing in winter is easy to catch wind and cold, and the imperial physician has advised him many times, but Wei Liao can't bear the dirt, and he thinks he is healthy, so he can wash whenever he wants.

At present, no one can control him, Ziqiong has nothing to do with him, so she can only close the doors and windows, prepare a change of clothes, and put them at hand, and don't ask him to take an extra step to avoid catching cold.

It was getting late, the keys were unlocked everywhere in the palace gates, and it was also curfew time in the city. The whole Chang'an city was very quiet. It seemed that only this palace was left with the lights on.

Since he said he wanted to talk, Ziqiong didn't bring anyone else in, she served him in the water and helped him wash his hair on the shore.

Wei Liao lay safely in the water with a calm face.After all, this sweet dream made him feel a lot better, and he couldn't help thinking about how to make Fu Xiru work tirelessly to put him to sleep every day. After a while, he opened his eyes and let out a long sigh.

There are too many things that are more important than being coaxed to sleep, so I just think about it.

He didn't make a sound, and Ziqiong didn't speak either. She quietly swiped the water, and gently rubbed his brocade-like thick hair. When she was concentrating, she heard Wei Liao ask her endlessly: "After the new year, you will be 27." Bar?"

The women in the palace do not look old, no matter if they are the palace officials, the shanggong, or the concubines of the various palaces, they always refuse to show their shame, they always look younger than their real age, as if they are living in a huge colosseum. If you die, you will die.

The same is true for Ziqiong, not to mention that she works hard and doesn't care about her face, and she has Wei Liao's support and trust. The kind of court lady with warm eyes.

"Yes," Ziqiong replied with a smile: "After the Chinese New Year, Your Majesty will be 22."

Wei Liao didn't remember his own age, he actually lowered his head and thought for a while before smiling: "Yes."

He paused for a while, then asked Ziqiong again: "Have you thought about going out of the palace?"

Ziqiong forgot the movement of her hands, and looked at his profile in surprise, not knowing why she suddenly brought up such a thing.

It's hard for female officials in the palace to get out, everyone knows that.Those who are used to doing things, those who have skills that can be used, and those who know secrets, most likely the master would rather call you dead than let you go out, let alone a female official like Ziqiong?

Wei Liao never showed any signs of letting her go, and Ziqiong knew very well that there was no plan to release her in the palace recently. This proposal inevitably made her uneasy, and she couldn't show her composure, so she didn't care about Wei Liao. Whether you can see it or not, she shook her head first, and said with a little bit of disbelief, "Your Majesty knows that this concubine's family is landless and poor. If it wasn't for this, I wouldn't have asked me to enter the palace to make a living. It is already a great blessing to be able to survive until today, not to mention... there is no one at home, so where can I go when I go out?"

This is the truth, in fact, Wei Liao knew early on that Zi Qiong was born poor, which is not a disadvantage in the palace, but once she leaves the palace, there is really nowhere to go.She has a special status and cannot be placed at will, so this question is even more abrupt.

After being silent for a while, Ziqiong still asked: "Your Majesty... is planning for the concubine, how do you plan to arrange the concubine?"

When will the emperor consider the fate of the people around him?

Zi Qiong thought that she had also experienced strong winds and waves. When the crown prince was abolished and Wei Liao entered the reserve within two months, she could already smell the direction of the wind, let alone now.

But it is unavoidable that the hands and feet are cold, the whole body is cold, the voice is intermittent, as if it is frozen, it is terribly frightened, and the voice is sharp: "Your Majesty?"

Wei Liao turned his head, glanced at her face, and patted her arm with his wet hand, as if to comfort her, even with a smile on his face: "Look at you, what are you afraid of?"

"I'm still here."

He is the emperor, where else can he go?

Ziqiong didn't dare to think about it, she just wanted to shrink back and tremble, and forced herself to sit upright, ignoring etiquette, grabbed Wei Liao's hand, and looked firmly into his eyes: "I can't go anywhere, I will stay with you."

This is not the first time she has said this, Wei Liao would smile, without pulling away from her grasped hand, and changed the subject as if nothing had happened: "Look at you, your clothes are all wet."

He has experienced it. He has been taught by the late emperor to keep his face from the day he entered the reserve. In the past few years, he has become so proficient in using it that even Zi Qiong doesn't know whether he is afraid or not.Ziqiong knew that now was not the time for her to be afraid, even though her feet were weak, she tried her best to hold on, regardless of her wet clothes, and asked: "Is everything going to be okay, Your Majesty, is everything going to be okay?"

In fact, she didn't know what happened, but she realized that the storm had gathered and was about to land on them at some point, maybe, right now...

She didn't know that there were tears of pity in her eyes.

Wei Liao was softened by her look, raised his hand to wipe her eyes, and said in a very gentle voice, "What are you afraid of, nothing will happen, if I die in Fu Xiru's hands, we will be all right, if ...Then I will trouble you, remember me."

Ziqiong trembled and slid unstoppably to the ground, as if she was about to throw herself into his arms.She actually doesn't understand the turmoil of politics, and the bloodiest scenes she has ever seen are nothing more than battles in the harem, and the turmoil brought about by Wei Liao's entry into the reserve and succession. Fu Xiru will kill Wei Liao, and Wei Liao seems to be doing well Without preparation, this was beyond what she could accept.

She didn't know who she was guaranteeing for: "No, it won't happen like this, if you wait, everything will be fine..."

If Wei Liao hadn't comforted her, maybe she wouldn't have shed tears, but now she seemed to have to cry, the tears were surging because of fear, and also because she touched the desolation and loneliness in Wei Liao's heart for a moment.

He stood and waited for someone to kill him.

Wei Liao had no choice but to regret saying such words casually, which frightened her so badly that he didn't feel happy about saying it, so he said something quite thoughtful: "It's nothing to be afraid of, no one lives for the dignity of death. What? I’ve been asking for this for the rest of my life.”

These words are even more frightening. Fortunately, Zi Qiong is used to him. After crying for a while, she realized that she had lost her composure. Besides, Wei Liao was still comforting her, so she wiped her face in a hurry to cover up her indifference: "Yes , I trust Your Majesty."

This topic should not be discussed with a female official, no matter how much he trusts this woman, Wei Liao also knows that this topic is too intimate.

So Wei Liao didn't talk to Ziqiong again until he went back after bathing. It's good to see people.

No matter Ziqiong or Fu Xiru, they were actually outstanding figures for a while.

Fu Xiru... Fu Xiru...

This person still posted it himself.

At that time, Fu Xiru was praised by lonely women in the palace, but they didn't have the chance to see him. It would have been better if he hadn't happened to come to the palace while serving pen and ink. The county lord of the palace thought of his demeanor from afar.

Wei Liao is better than them, and he can be seen often, but this person is just as small as a mountain and a moon, he doesn't get close to the prince, and he won't get close to him when he is still a child.

It's hard to say why he is so attracted to this person, maybe it's just because he is too upright, and being upright is boring, but Fu Xiru should be a very interesting person - he guessed right.He can be called Fang Lie, which is very similar to the calamus in his name. Under the layers of clothes, there is an unknown intensity and heat. Both love and hate are equally inscribed to the extreme, as if he doesn't know how to save it for a long time.

Maybe he doesn't want any long-term, just one night is enough.

After getting used to it, Fu Xiru is the person who suits Wei Liao's taste the most, until now.

He wanted to drink for no reason, and wanted to tell Fu Xiru this story.

What do you say?Saying "I want to die at your hands, that would be nice"?

Now Fu Xiru is even more unwilling to listen to such absurd words from him.He won't admit his killing intent, let alone come to take Wei Liao's life right now, so it seems that he can only make fun of wine and let it go.

It's a bit lonely.

=========

The author has something to say

In the Tang Dynasty, the daughter of the prince was named the princess, and the daughter of the prince was named the county princess, so Fu Xiru and Wei Liao are actually cousins, but they are not close - after all, the previous emperors had too many cubs, so it is not rare.
