C50 Did the male lead lose his skin today? (2/2)

Yi Qiannan took out a small mirror and looked at his face, sighing to himself that he, Big Brother Fox Goblin, was also born with such exquisite features, but he forgot that he and Luo Yi were fake siblings.

Lin Ting laughed with difficulty: ”I'm fine, I'm just a bit worried about her.”

He said she was too ostentatious.

Tang Yuan also frowned as he vaguely felt that this matter was a bit strange.

Logically speaking, Luo Yi hadn't been in the palace for long, and it had only been a little more than three months. But in these three months, the stories related to Luo Yi had never stopped for the citizens, and from entering the palace to becoming an imperial concubine, it was as if a hand had deliberately pushed Luo Yi into the sight of ordinary people. As for the two words ”Imperial Consort Yi,” no one in the city had not heard of it before.

But who was it that was going to push her out? What was the purpose of exposing her to the public?

”Perhaps …” is to use her mouth to announce something. ”

Yi Qiannan carelessly said: ”Regardless of whether this reputation is good or bad, the name of Imperial Consort Yi is still known among the people. If she says anything in the future, it will naturally represent the Imperial Family's position.”

”The Emperor and Empress have esteemed positions, and even when they speak, they carry a sense of distance, but the Imperial Consort Yi is different. She came from a commoner's background, so it was easier for ordinary people to get close to her psychologically. Furthermore, she was a mysterious person like Da Ji's reincarnation … The current Imperial Consort Yi is more representative of the Imperial Family than those under the age of ninety five. ”

After he said this in a flat tone, he did not seem to have felt that his words had shocked him at all. Following that, he changed his face, moved his chair to Tang Yuan's side stealthily, and nudged him on the elbow as he spoke coquettishly, saying that he wanted to eat the prawn dumplings.

Tang Yuan and Lin Ting looked at each other, but did not speak.

Of course, all of this would come later, and for the current Luo Yi to obtain the title of Demon Consort from Chen Jinyan before long, she only expressed her gratitude calmly, and did not mention anymore.

Luo Yi lowered his head and pleasing to the eye as she led the servants of the Hall of Announcements in sending them off. In the end, she was still unable to hold his head up, and used her gaze to follow that upright back from afar.

The person was following beside the emperor, and behind him were many palace maids. As a result, Luo Yi couldn't even see his back clearly.

She lowered her eyes and turned around, uncontrollably recalling the conversation she had with Mu Yizhou many days ago.

”This subject has never mentioned the cause of death of Tutor Liang.”

Luo Yi's stomach was filled with words but they were all blocked up by his words, as though there was a fish bone stuck in her throat, making it hard for him to swallow.

”Even the Empress could guess the culprit. Why do you have to ask this subject for evidence?”

This sentence seemed to be a sigh, but it was as if it weighed a thousand kilograms, causing Luo Yi to be unable to catch her breath. After a long while, she struggled to reply, ”I am only guessing that Tutor Liang died a violent death …”

”The Empress is intelligent.” Mu Yizhou was too lazy to expose her, so he could only lower his head and reply with two words that were neither hot nor cold.

The two of them were silent for a long time.

As Luo Yi sat on the stone chair, she only felt a strong stench of blood in her throat, but she forcefully suppressed it. After that, she wiped her lips with the back of her hand without caring at all, got up, and said: ”Lord Mu has already heard what I have to say, please go back.”

Her voice was cold and detached, and she gave off an unreachable feeling of alienation under the moonlight.

Mu Yizhou did not expect them to speak in such a manner yet Luo Yi still insisted on pretending to be deaf and mute, causing him to become angry, and without caring about the status of the two of them, she grabbed her arm: ”Since it has already come to this, does the Empress still want to continue doing evil? What is your conscience? ”

”What about you? How are you better than me? You knew what kind of person he was, yet you still watched Tutor Liang die under his hands! ”

Her body was shaking, her voice was also shaking, but she did not dare speak loudly because she could not control her voice, so she kept her voice low, causing every word to be hoarse and reeking of blood: ”You used Tutor Liang's life as a bargaining chip to make me admit your wrongs, how could you be more noble than me! And on what basis are you criticizing me! ”

”You are not worthy!”

She paused the last three words with a deep hatred in her voice.

Mu Yizhou's finger unconsciously relaxed, and he understood in his heart that the hatred in her words was definitely not because of this matter. As a result, he sighed, and his voice softened as well. To whom are you speaking? ”

”There is a secret guard sent by the Emperor to protect him outside the Tutor Liang Palace. For him to be unable to detect that someone had gotten his hands on him, it is a dereliction of duty.”

Mu Yizhou looked straight at Luo Yi, his tone clearly calm, but he had actually said something to force her to jump down the cliff. As Luo Yi was guided by his words, she couldn't help but recall the ”I won't need to go after today” that Chen Liyi had once casually mentioned to her a long time ago. She was just saved by the secret guards that Chen Jinyan arranged for in the dark.

Luo Yi was almost unable to bear his gaze and lowered his head, as if trying to avoid it.

”I'm tired. I want to go back and rest …” Lord Mu will also go back. ”

”Mother …”

Because of these three words, ”Mu Yizhou was slightly stunned,” I'm really very tired, ever since the first day I met you, I've been very tired. ”

Mu Yizhou, ”...”

Now that both of their roles had changed, Luo Yi watched Mu Yizhou's back as she walked further and further away, but in her heart, she did not feel anything, but she suddenly thought of the question Mu Yizhou asked her before she answered.

”Empress, right now … Who are you talking to? ”

”With Mu Yizhou.”

Luo Yi had stepped across the threshold of the Hall of Announcements, as if she had entered a distinct river world of Chuhan.

Beside her stood a remnant soul, and the enemy across the river was the master of that remnant soul.
