If Lei Bingfu knew that she would run into Murong Ke when she went for a walk at night to digest, she would rather die than come out.
Was it because she had been thinking about him today that she had met him?
Ever since she saw his mind yesterday, she had been thinking about what kind of person Murong Ke was. How could he like Princess Qin?
When she was in the palace, she had seen all kinds of beauties. Some of them were extremely beautiful, but none of them could compare with Princess Qin. She was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off her. Even she was amazed by her every frown and smile. Could it be that Murong Ke fell in love with her because she was beautiful?
She didn't think it was possible. Murong Ke was not a person who would be obsessed with the look in his eyes. There must be more stories between him and Princess Qin.
Lei Bingfu was very curious about Murong Ke's past. She wanted to know why he was so devoted to the Princess of Qin. For her sake, he didn't even choose a concubine and treated her daughter as his own. He even prepared the throne for Mingyu.
How much love does it take to do that?
"What are you thinking about?" The cold voice interrupted Lei Bingfu's thoughts. She hurriedly came back to her senses and focused all her attention on Murong Ke.
She had been thinking about this matter for the entire day. She was dizzy from thinking about it, and she didn't feel very well.
"Replying to Your Majesty, this concubine didn't think of anything. I was just a little surprised to see you here." How could she not be surprised? Usually, at this time, Murong Ke would never appear here. She had walked this road countless times, but she had never seen him.
"Why are you here?" Murong Ke's voice was cold, as if as long as Lei Bingfu's answer did not satisfy him, he would punish her at any time.
Lei Bingfu said in a low voice, "This qie will walk along this path every day after dinner to aid digestion."
Murong Ke coldly stared at her expression. Seeing that her expression was proper, it didn't look like she was lying, so he didn't argue with her. However, his expression was still gloomy, as if he had something on his mind.
He ignored Lei Bingfu and walked toward the cobblestone path on the other side.
Lei Bingfu looked at his back and heaved a sigh of relief.
"Follow me." Murong Ke's cold voice floated over.
What? Lei Bingfu, who was about to walk back, froze. Why did he ask her to go?
Although she was extremely unwilling, she had no choice but to follow behind him.
Murong Ke strode forward, as if he had forgotten that Lei Bingfu was following him.
Where was he going? Lei Bingfu was puzzled. Previously, she had only walked on the other side of the path and had never come here before. That was because if she continued to walk forward, she would reach the Eternal Life Palace Hall. The Eternal Life Palace Hall was very close to the Yangxin Palace Hall, and she did not like to come here.
Eternal Life Palace!
Lei Bingfu immediately understood why Murong Ke wanted to come here. Princess Qin used to live here!
Did he come here to reminisce about Princess Qin?
No way! What was the point of doing so? The relationship between the Princess of Qin and the Prince of Qin seemed to be so good. What else could Murong Ke expect? If he did not let go of the white moonlight in his heart, would he still want to snatch the Princess of Qin away?
Mo Rongzhan didn't seem to be easy to deal with.
While Lei Bingfu was lost in her thoughts, Murong Ke stopped in front of her.
She almost bumped into his back.
Fortunately, she stopped in a hurry. Otherwise, she would definitely be scolded by him.
"Your Majesty … …" Lei Bingfu called out to him in a low voice. They were already at the Eternal Life Palace, why wasn't he going in?
Murong Ke looked at the three words Eternal Life Palace in a daze. He had not been here for a long time. He thought that he could forget about the four years they were missing. When she came back, he realized that she was still deeply engraved in his heart. It was a mark that could never be erased.
Letting go was easier said than done.
Lei Bingfu raised her eyes and quietly looked at Murong Ke. The sadness and deep love in his eyes were too heavy, making her feel bad for him.
She was even more curious about what happened between him and Princess Qin.
She was a person who had never truly loved. Even when she became the Empress Dowager in her previous life, every step she took, every expression of love she showed, was for a purpose. It was all for more benefits.
It was hard to understand why Murong Ke would do so much for Princess Qin.
Murong Ke seemed to have forgotten that Lei Bingfu was following him. He slowly walked into the Eternal Life Palace, his steps heavy and his expression sad.
Just by looking at his back, she could feel that his heart was so heavy that he almost couldn't take it anymore.
Lei Bingfu suddenly felt a little sorry for him.
To fall in love with someone he couldn't love, and love so deeply, it was really … a sin in his previous life.
Every table and chair in the Eternal Life Palace exuded an exquisite and elegant feeling, making people unable to help but think of Princess Qin's beautiful figure.
Could it be that after so many years, the Eternal Life Palace still maintained the same decoration as before?
How attentive! Lei Bingfu glanced at Murong Ke.
Did Princess Qin know that Murong Ke liked her? If she knew, would her heart waver a little in the face of such an excellent man who was deeply in love with her?
Oh, Mo Rongzhan was also very excellent, so she wouldn't waver.
Lei Bingfu saw Murong Ke sitting by the window. There was a straw mat there, and there were several wine jars next to it. At a glance, she knew that the wine jars had been stored for a long time.
She didn't know if he had asked someone to put them here, or if Princess Qin had brewed them herself.
Murong Ke began to drink, but his eyes kept looking out of the window. She didn't know what he was looking at.
Did he think she was transparent?
Lei Bingfu was a little unhappy. She had been forced to follow him all the way, but he was the one who was drinking and reminiscing about his sweetheart. Then what was she doing here?
Ah, that wine smelled so good! It smelled like it was brewed from grapes. The fragrance of the wine filled the air, and there was a faint fruity aroma.
She used to like drinking wine the most.
Lei Bingfu's heart itched. She thought that since she was already here, it was fine to watch Murong Ke suffer alone, but she couldn't let herself be wronged.
She didn't even ask anything as she walked over and directly opened a jar of wine. She took a cup from the side and filled it up. She smiled at Murong Ke and said, "Your Majesty, this concubine offers you a toast."
Murong Ke just looked at her coldly, as if he didn't understand why Lei Bingfu would appear here. After a while, he remembered that he was the one who asked her to come.
He picked up the wine cup and drank it in one gulp.
Lei Bingfu didn't really expect that he would drink with her.
Anyway, it was fine as long as she had wine to drink.
After drinking a few cups, she suddenly thought of something and took out a bag of dried fish from her bosom. "I had the imperial kitchen make this today. It tastes good and goes well with wine."
Murong Ke didn't pay attention to her and just continued to drink.
In a short while, the jar of wine was finished.
Even if he wanted to drown his sorrows in wine, he didn't have to do this, right? Lei Bingfu slowly sipped the wine, frowning as she looked at the cold and gloomy Murong Ke.
