Give Him the Handle

Chapter 25

Pei Qing has always been docile and quiet. Even if the concubines in the harem made sarcastic remarks, she would never care or care about them, let alone say anything bad about them in front of Xiao Jing.

Therefore, it was widely rumored outside the palace that Queen Pei was gentle, tolerant and generous, and that she was the most empress in the world.

But people in the palace knew that although the little Queen Pei was similar to the big Queen Pei in every way, she was not Pei Wan after all. As a queen, Pei Qing puts His Majesty and the Prince first in everything, but as a woman, she does not have His Majesty in her heart. She never asked whether the concubines would vie for favor among the other concubines. Because she was not jealous, she was calm and calm.

But the Pei Qing now was something no one had ever seen before, and something Xiao Jing had never seen before.

She is sad and determined.

Xiao Jing coughed twice, calmed down and asked her calmly: "What do you want to do when you come to me?"

"I want to open the palace gate." She blurted out.

Xiao Jing looked at her: "Do you know what will happen if you open the palace door?"

Pei Qing naturally knew. Opening the palace gate means offering surrender. The army outside the city covets the throne, and the person they want to kill is Xiao Jing. Opening the palace gate means giving them what they want.

If this happens, Xiao Jing will die and the throne will fall into the hands of others.

But this can give the Nanchuan army outside the palace a chance to breathe. It only takes a moment, and with Xiao Yuan's ability, he will definitely be able to survive whether he withdraws his troops or flees in all directions.

Pei Qing lowered her head and said nothing, while Xiao Jing smiled instead of being angry.

When King Yu and King Yun's rebels were about to attack the palace, he already thought that he was in a desperate situation, but at that time, Pei Qing had no intention of surrendering. What could make her hold on was not so much the letter for help. It's trust in that man. She believed that as long as Xiao Yuan came, everything would be safe.

But right now, Xiao Jing doesn't think it's a desperate situation. As long as the Nanchuan Army fights to the death, it is not completely impossible to save the palace. But his queen wanted to open the palace gate and surrender.

When it was about the life and death of the man outside, she lost all her usual gentleness and tranquility.

Xiao Jing stared at Pei Qing.

It turns out that his queen is such a determined and cruel person. She and Pei Wan have similar faces, but completely different temperaments. All the obedient behavior in the past was just because I didn't care.

Although he knew the reason why she entered the palace, for some unknown reason, a surge of anger still came up.

Xiao Jing stood up, and walked up to Pei Qing with a thin but tall figure. He leaned over, pinched Pei Qing's face with his pale and veiny hands, forcing her to look up -

"I don't agree."

Pei Qing looked towards him . Those deep black eyes had a terrifying look of cruelty in them. This was also the first time she saw Xiao Jing like this. Your Majesty's kind-hearted nature is known to everyone in the world today. He governed the country well and never abused cruelty or lynching. He never speaks harshly, let alone in such an aggressive manner.

At this moment, the expression on that handsome face remained unchanged, but Pei Qing felt that the entire hall was bone-chillingly cold.

There was another roar outside, which made her tremble.

But her eyes were firmer, and she said word by word: "Your Majesty is seriously ill. As the Queen, I have this power." (Go save your man)

Xiao Jing's eyes darkened immediately, and Pei Qing's face was pinched with red marks. But then he let her go and sat back on the bed without saying anything. Pei Qing saw that he was still stepping on the cold ground with his bare feet, and recalled the caress he received in the past.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Ji'er has been escorted out of the palace by the Nanchuan Army. Everything will be fine." She paused and her voice trembled: "After the palace gate is opened, no matter what the consequences, I will stay with your Majesty."

After hearing this, Xiao Jing was startled.

"I know I'm selfish, but I... I really don't want him to die." The tears she held back finally fell, "I have betrayed him, hurt him, and... It is useful to provoke him rashly and drag him into such a cruel dispute. Xiao Yuan is a good person. He can still protect the country while he is alive. "

"Since Pei Qing is the queen, I will never have anything to do with him in this life . Maybe. I...I have nothing else but my life to repay my brother-in-law for taking care of me and my sister's spirit in heaven. So when it comes to life and death, I will never let your majesty face it alone. ."

A crying voice echoed in the huge nursing home.

Xiao Jing listened quietly to what Pei Qing said, and after a moment of silence, he chuckled, "I didn't know that the queen I married was such a strong-tempered person."

Seeing Pei Qing's tears falling on the ground, the ground was wet. In the blockbuster, Xiao Jing said: "Get up."

Pei Qing didn't understand what he meant.

"Go and pour two glasses of wine, and treat this as a farewell. After drinking, I will immediately order the palace door to be opened."

"Thank you, brother-in-law, thank you Your Majesty!" She stood up wiping her tears.

Pei Qing quickly brought the wine, Xiao Jing coughed twice more, and when Pei Qing heard it, she immediately turned around and moved the charcoal fire in the hall closer. When she turned around, Xiao Jing was looking at her with a slight smile on his lips.

She was slightly startled: "What?"

"Nothing." Xiao Jing picked up a glass of wine and handed it to her.

After being an emperor for more than ten years, it was the first time that Xiao Jing could not see through a person, to be precise, a woman. He obviously wanted to use his life to save the man outside, but at this moment she was still worried that he would be cold.

Pei Qing took the wine and said sorry in a low voice.

Xiao Jing smiled and drank it all. Pei pursed her lips lightly and drank all the wine.

"Pei Qing, how much do you admire him?" Xiao Jing put down his wine cup.

Pei Qing lowered his eyes.

"If you are really selfish, you should kill me directly. I will never test the poison of the things you bring." He said, "When I die, you can be with whoever you want, right? But what about you? , just because you are a queen by name, you want to die with me, are you selfish or stupid?"

Xiao Jing's voice was very soft and pleasant, but for some reason, Pei Qing felt a little uncomfortable when he was so close. I can not hear you.

She raised her eyes to look at him, but her vision was blurry. She shook her head and suddenly remembered the glass of wine just now.

"Pei Qing, let me be selfish for once."

This was the last word Pei Qing heard before she fainted.
