Allure of the World Chapter 257: Concubine Shu’s person

Looking up, I saw that the red plum blossom in the corner was blooming like a torch. ...

A vague consternation flashed through Qingyun's heart, but he couldn't tell what it was when he wanted to catch it. Her pair of plain hands were as pale as the moon and snow, and they were dazzlingly white against the gorgeous neon clothes.

That kind of shock gradually became clear, it turned out to be seeing myself. Qingyun seems to see that he is like this lonely Yushang, maybe he will be here forever in the Wangshang Palace, loveless and ruthless, until the beauty passes away.

A tear silently fell on her palm.

Qingyun raised his face, gently wiped away the water marks on his cheeks, put this gorgeous feather dress into a box, and smiled silently.

Before dusk, Qingyun asked the maid to close the door. She rested early and lay on the bed, but she was unable to fall asleep.

Tossing and turning, she heard a knock on the door.

The little palace maid came in and reported: "Princess, the emperor is here."

Before Qingyun got up, Huo Jingyun had already walked in.

His face was slightly red, and he appeared to be drinking a lot.

Qing Yun alertly covered her body with the quilt. Shark flicks. The candlelight flickered, and Huo Jingyun's slender shadow was reflected there, making the night quieter and deeper.

"Today is your big day, what are you doing here at Qingyun so late?" Qingyun asked.

Huo Jingyun just stood there, he only wore a bright yellow jacket.

"I just married her. Everything I said to you was serious." Huo Jingyun looked at Qingyun with starlight in his eyes.

Qing Yundao: "Senior brother said this, you know that woman can hand over her life to you."

Huo Jingyun said: "I told her when I was engaged that I couldn't give her too much, and she agreed. I helped his father regain the family business, and she married me."

Qing Yundao: "Senior brother, you don't have to tell me this."

Huo Jingyun's eyes showed deep disappointment: "Qingyun, I married someone else, aren't you unhappy?"

"No, there should have been a woman by my brother's side."

Huo Jingyun gave her a deep look, "Okay, you can rest." He calmly retracted his gaze, turned around lightly, and his back was cold.

From the second day of the wedding, Huo Jingyun would go to Qingyun's palace to sit for a while every time he went to the harem. Every time there was a reward, Concubine Shu had it, Qingyun had it, and there were only a few more.

There are rumors in the palace that the new emperor has a deep affection for Princess Qingyun. The two are deeply in love.

There are only two days left before the Chinese New Year, and it's surprisingly cold.

The trees outside are covered with large and small red lanterns, adding a seven-festival celebration to this icy harem.

Qingyun likes winter, especially the snow in winter. It is clean, pure, and makes people free from distractions.

The pure white snowflakes were blown away by the frigid wind, fluttering in the air, occasionally flying into the window, but in a flash, they turned into cold drops of water.

Clothing a lavender cloak and holding a small heater in her hand, Qingyun stood quietly under a blooming plum tree in the plum garden.

She watched as the snow particles on her hands turned into droplets of water. Life and death are impermanent, prosperity is impermanent, it is but a momentary thing.

It seemed that snowdrops had entered her eyes, gradually moistening, filling her eyes with cold tears.

The afternoon sun reflected the silver snow on the ground, but suddenly there was a sound of laughter in this quiet courtyard.

"Niang Niang, you must be slow, the servants in this yard are lazy, the snow has not been cleaned up, be careful not to slip!" came the voice of a servant.

"Why are there still people there! Who is there, disturbing the purity of the goddess!" A female voice came over.

Another voice next to him said: "It seems to be the Princess Beiyi!" The voice of the chamberlain.

Xiaojing whispered to Qingyun: "Princess, Concubine Shu is here."

Qingyun turned around and saw a group of people standing not far behind with beautiful flowers.

The one in the middle is wearing a red cloak. He is tall, with high browbones, sunken eye sockets, bright eyes, and a faint shrewdness.

This is the woman Huo Jingyun married. If Huo Jingyun married a woman in the past, Qingyun must be very happy. She is the one who hopes her brother can be happy the most. Now Qingyun has mixed feelings in her heart.

She bowed and gave a salute, "My lady is safe."

Concubine Shu nodded, "Princess, in this icy world, the princess is also here to enjoy the flowers."

Qingyun said: "Qingyun has always liked white snow and red plums. Qingyun has been here for a long time, so please don't disturb the empress to appreciate the flowers. Please redeem Qingyun and return to the palace first."

Qing Yun wanted to leave after speaking.

"Princess stay," she looked at Qingyun, "now there are only two of us in the emperor's harem. I heard that the emperor is going to marry the princess after the new year, so we shouldn't be too detached."

Qing Yundao: "Another day, Qingyun will definitely say goodbye to the empress. Today is really too long to come out."

"Niangniang, the emperor just gave her that priceless feather dress! It was originally a gift from other countries to congratulate Niangniang and the emperor on their wedding!" A palace maid next to Concubine Shu said in disapproval.

Concubine Shu smiled slightly: "The emperor has given me enough, I don't need to worry about a feather dress. I also want to invite the princess to appreciate the face and plums together."

She stepped forward and grabbed Qingyun's hand, "Princess, how about staying for a while?"

Qingyun had to agree to see her saying this. She didn't understand why the empress had to keep her.

She took Qingyun's hand and said: "I heard that the princess is only seventeen years old, and I am already twenty years old. Almost all women of this age have children. It is because of my father that my father was framed and the family was wronged. Only me and my seven-year-old brother are under my father's knees. The emperor helped me."

Qingyun didn't speak. She didn't understand why Concubine Shu told her so much.

"I married the emperor to repay my kindness, don't take it to heart."

Qingyun looked at her: "You don't need to tell me this, you are already his concubine."

Concubine Shu said: "The emperor has told me that he only has you in his heart. I mean you don't have to care about me and him, he doesn't like me."

Qingyun looked at her with wide eyes, this woman, after all, has something different from others. Not an ordinary woman in a boudoir.

But Qingyun didn't want to talk to her too much. Regarding the grievances between herself, Huo Jingyun, and Ling Chen, she and Concubine Shu didn't have the kind of friendship that they could talk about.

"You are the first woman he married after all. You are so smart, he will like you. I really want to go back." Qingyun wanted to free his hand.

Concubine Shu still didn't let go. She approached her and whispered: "But I like him. I liked him when I was young. My father and Uncle Huo are friends. I have known him since childhood."

Qingyun finally understood what Concubine Shu was going to say to her. Concubine Shu took her hand and walked slowly forward. The maids and servants at the back looked at them very close, and even Xiaojing felt that Concubine Shu was really easy-going.

Qing Yun said: "Don't worry, he is just my senior brother, I have a lover. Not him."

Concubine Shu looked ahead: "You know, my father was framed last year, but before, I was also a lady, why didn't I marry? It's because I was waiting for him!"

Qingyun stopped and asked her: "What is the mother going to say to Qingyun?"
