Chapter 103: Regret
When Concubine Yun Gui heard what Cui Xiu said, her expression was very surprised, because she had never told Cui Xiu that Princess Wanning liked Li Qun.
Why don't you say it?
Concubine Yun Gui knew that there were many misunderstandings between Cui Xiu and Li Qun, and there were many undisclosed things. If this matter was brought out again, it would inevitably make the relationship between the two more rigid.
Even if there is no possibility between Cui Xiu and Li Qun now, there is no possibility at all if the future is not guaranteed.
Concubine Yun Gui still has great confidence in her brother. She knows what happened back then, but she can't help her brother to stop it. She can only watch Cui Xiu join the prince's palace.
“Sister Yun, actually you don’t have to hide anything from me.”
“Princess Wanning likes Li Qun, it’s her business.”
“It’s not Li Qun either. "
Cui Xiu knew what Concubine Yun was worried about. Sister Yun had watched her and Li Qun play together since childhood. Of all the people, Sister Yun was the most optimistic about the two of them.
Cui Xiu still remembers the days when she first married into the prince's palace. Sister Yun often came to see her. At that time, Sister Yun asked her if she still had Li Qun in her heart.
Cui Xiu remembered it very well. She denied it at the time. She insisted that she no longer liked Li Qun.
I will never have anything to do with Li Qun again. The relationship between them can only be a bridge back to a bridge, a road back to the road, and they will have nothing to do with each other in the future.
But Sister Yun saw a trace of hesitation in her decision, and then Sister Yun took her hands and told her.
"He'er, tell the truth to Sister Yun."
"If you still have Qi Yun in your heart, I will definitely help you."
"Leave Li Xiuhuai to me."
Sister Yun's words at that time really touched her. , but Cui Xiu did not accept it, because she knew that if she accepted it, all the previous things would be in vain.
Cui Xiu understands that after she came to this world, she is no longer a person. She is the daughter of the Cui family. Even if she cannot earn glory for the family, she does not want to bring disaster to the family.
If she and Li Qun left Kyoto City, they would be free and happy, but their family members would not escape death.
Cui Xiu knew that she couldn't do this, and she couldn't just watch Li Qun's family suffer this.
At that time, Sister Yun saw that she hesitated for a moment, but still firmly refused, so Sister Yun stopped forcing her.
Sister Yun knows that she has always been a person with a backbone. Once she decides something, even if someone holds a knife to her neck, she will not blink her eyes and change it.
Cui Xiu remembers that when she was a child, her brothers and sisters all said that she was a cute little stubborn donkey who was too straightforward and didn’t know what turning around was.
When Cui Xiu recalls it, a faint smile will appear on his face. Such carefree days can never be returned.
"I'm really happy that you can think so."
"That's true."
"But now that Wan Ning has married Li Cheng, he will probably not bother Qi anymore. Yun."
Concubine Yun continued what Cui Xiu said. Her eyes did not leave Cui Xiu's face, as if she had something to say. After Cui Xiu calmed down, her eyes moved and she spoke to Yun. The noble concubines looked at each other.
“Sister Yun, do you have anything else to say?”
Concubine Yun couldn't help but feel emotional when she heard Cui Xiu's words. She had said some words for many years and got Cui Xiu's answer.
After so many years, Cui Xiu has given birth to a child for the emperor, so this answer will probably not change any more.
In the dead of night, Concubine Yun would always think of many past events, among which the most regretful thing for her was the incident between Cui Xiu and Li Qun.
This is also the reason why she has been unwilling to be sincere to Li Xiuhuai for so many years. She simply cannot look directly at Li Xiuhuai. In the past, when she didn't have the sixth prince, she would embroider, knit, and make gadgets in her palace.
Later, after raising the sixth prince, half of her thoughts were focused on him. The child was still young, so she inevitably had to take better care of him.
"He'er."
"Do you like the emperor?"
Concubine Yun did not ask about Li Qun this time. She had been thinking about it for so many years. , she should also ask from a different angle.
After so many years in the palace, the one person Cui Xiu has been able to come into contact with and make her fall in love is the emperor.
If Cui Xiu doesn't like the emperor, then it's just from the outside. Cui Xiu still has Li Qun in his heart, but it's just because of those external constraints.
When Cui Xiu heard Concubine Yun Gui's sudden question, she raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes did not dodge, a smile flashed across her face and she said: "Who among the concubines in the palace does not like the emperor. "
"Don't you like it, Sister Yun?"
When Cui Xiu heard Concubine Yun's question, she immediately knew what Concubine Yun wanted to ask. Cui Xiu only felt that she and Concubine Yun There is more or less a tacit understanding.
She just remembered what happened many years ago, and Concubine Yun Gui asked her the same question as she did many years ago.
Although the question is asked in a different way, it still changes the soup without changing the medicine.
Cui Xiu has also lived a lifetime, and finally reached the position of Queen Mother. She understands the hidden meaning of these words.
She is no longer the Cui Xiu she once was.
It’s just that Sister Yun doesn’t know.
When Concubine Yun heard what Cui Xiu said, her eyes were a little dazed. Although Cui Xiu did not answer her directly, she could vaguely understand what Cui Xiu meant.
Concubine Yun Guifei didn't go around the bush like Cui Xiu, she had a smile on her face and she was happy in her heart.
Concubine Yun Gui shook her head gently, which was the answer to Cui Xiu's rhetorical question. She smiled, as if she had already let go, and said, "Who would like him except the queen?"< br>
“Don’t like anyone you like.”
“He is not worthy at all, and he is not worthy.”
Cui Xiu heard Concubine Yun’s very direct answer , her eyes fell on Concubine Yun Gui's face. Concubine Yun Gui's expression was a bit stubborn and disgusting. She knew that Concubine Yun Gui was deeply hurt by Li Xiuhuai.
At that time, because Li Qun and Li Xiuhuai played well, Concubine Yun, as Li Qun's eldest sister, also had contact with Li Xiuhuai. Li Xiuhuai was the prince, but he had no airs. All the ladies were secretly happy when they saw her.
Xu Yanyun was no exception at that time.
And Xu Yanyun is Concubine Yun.
Why is Concubine Yun named Xu? That's because their mother's surname was Xu, and Concubine Yun Guifei took her mother's surname, so she also took the surname Xu.
The name Xu Yanyun sounds very heroic, and Concubine Yun at that time was like this.
In the city of Kyoto, women from aristocratic families all targeted Xu Yanyun, because Xu Yanyun was not only able to lead troops on the battlefield, but could also embroider and play the piano in the boudoir.
As the eldest daughter of Mr. Xu, Xu Yanyun has never done anything that caused Mr. Xu a headache. She is also the daughter of the old Mr. Xu.
Xu Yanyun's life should have been free and happy, because it was the first dozen years of her life, but since she fell in love with Li Xiuhuai, her life trajectory has completely changed.
