If one blindly dug out the secrets in other people's hearts, what they would get in the end would not be a secret. It would only aggravate the pain of others!
At this moment, Du Paihong had no idea that she was the person who kept digging up the pain of others.
Sheng Minghao closed his eyes in pain and curled up in the corner.
A black and blood-red scene kept flashing in his mind, and the scenes kept spinning in his mind like a shuttle. He punched the ground with a fist and knelt on the cold floor. It was as if he was a numb person without a soul. He could not feel the pain in his hands or the coldness in his knees.
"Sheng Minghao…you…what happened?”Du Shanhong looked worriedly at Sheng Minghao and naturally wanted to reach out to help him. However, his outstretched hand was caught by Sheng Minghao when he was only an inch away. Immediately after, her body was quickly hugged tightly by him.
Sheng Minghao hugged Du Panhong tightly, like a drowning victim holding onto the only lifeboat in the sea.
He lowered his head and buried it in Du Panhong's neck. The hot air that was gushing out was constantly blowing against her sensitive neck, causing her face to instantly turn red. She opened her arms slightly, wanting to keep a distance from Sheng Minghao. However, the hand that had just reached out was intercepted by him halfway, and then it was firmly pulled behind him.
Helplessly, Du Pian Hong could only obediently let Sheng Ming Hao hug him. Although she could maintain her self-control on the surface, her heart was like a raging storm. This was the first time she was so close to a man.
Hence, she turned her head in embarrassment and coughed unnaturally."Cough cough…Sheng Minghao, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have exposed the pain in your heart.”
"If you feel uncomfortable now, I can accompany you.”Du Pian Hong sighed helplessly when he saw no reaction from the other party. If her comfort could help Sheng Minghao get rid of his pain, then she was willing.
"Is that so?" Sheng Minghao took advantage of the moment when she was unaware and wrapped his hand around Du Pian Hong's body. Then, he tightened his grip, causing the distance between the two of them to be extremely close. At this moment, they were transmitting warmth and comfort to each other.
Presumably, he was extremely unwilling to talk about that past.
Just like her, she had been hurt in the past and had been running away from it…
It turned out that they were so similar in the past…
As Du Pian Hong thought about this, his hands went from hanging on both sides of his body to wrapping around Sheng Ming Hao's back. She tried to imitate her mother's comforting actions, her hands patting Sheng Minghao rhythmically.
Each time, it was filled with determination, comfort, and encouragement!
" Haha…" After a long time, Sheng Minghao's voice came from the dead silence.
His body twitched as if he was holding back a smile.
"I know you want to know about my past, but now is not the time!”Sheng Minghao let go of Du Pian Hong's body and stood up, returning to his usual appearance. However, he stopped laughing and his face became unusually serious.
"Wait for me." He said,"As long as I can resolve that matter, I'll definitely tell you everything!”
Du Shanhong nodded and stood up as well.
"Alright." She said softly, her tone filled with trust.
Just now, they were comforting each other.
Just now, they were extremely intimate.
After this incident, she had reason to believe that Sheng Minghao treated her differently.
The relationship between them was no longer the playful and abrupt relationship they had when they first met. Instead, they trusted each other as if they were bosom friends.
They shared the same past that they were unwilling to face, but at the same time, they tried their best to escape from the past.
But…
She was already willing to face the present with her brother's hard work.
As for him…
Yet he was still immersed in the sadness and misfortune of the past.
If she could help Sheng Minghao face the past and get rid of the shadow of the past, she was willing to give everything to help him!
However, what should she do?
The cold moonlight shone on Sheng Minghao's body, giving him a holy appearance. He stood quietly in the corner. He did not look like a mortal, but more like an immortal from heaven.
He seemed to be isolated from the world, as if he was standing in a desperate situation in the human world, cut off from contact with outsiders.
Loneliness…
Loneliness could be seen on him.
Cold…
He could also feel the coldness from his body.
Why was he frowning?
Why was he pursing his lips?
She really wanted to know.
"I heard that you've been investigating the Hou family's young miss 'case?”Sheng Minghao turned his head and looked at Du Pian Hong for a long time. His eyes were thoughtful." Can I help you?"”
"Actually, I hope you can let me enter the palace.”
Du Penhong pondered for a long time and said,""I suspect that the Hou family's young lady's corpse might be hidden in the Holy Palace. However, the current me cannot enter the palace again. Therefore, I hope you can allow me to enter the palace to investigate the case!”
"Just entering the palace to investigate a case?" Sheng Minghao pondered for a long time and said,""But…will the Empress, the master of the harem, agree?”
Yes, she once had an agreement with the Empress. She had once sworn to the Empress that she would never enter the Sacred Palace again.
But…
Was this oath still there?
It was the Empress who had broken her oath and caused the rumors to spread throughout Jingdou.
In that case, she could not be blamed for not keeping her promise now!
"Are you the Sage Emperor? If you were the Sage Emperor, would you be afraid of the harem master? You're the ruler of a country, and you have the most power in the world. Why would you be afraid of a woman?”Du Pian Hong pressed forward step by step, his aura instantly becoming sharp and threatening, causing Sheng Ming Hao to feel fear in his heart.
At this moment, he felt that this Du Pian Hong was someone he was not familiar with!
Du Pian Hong, how many sides of you are I still not familiar with?
Sheng Minghao smiled lightly, then the corners of his mouth curled up.
That's right!
He was the ruler of a country, the most powerful person in the world.
Would he still be afraid of the Empress?
However…
Sheng Minghao took a step back, his mind wandering.
However, if he wanted to find the person who truly frightened him, it should be this Du Penhong in front of him.
"You're right. However, I must give you an identity to enter the palace. Pianpian." Sheng Minghao's words reminded Du Penhong of a problem. As everyone knew, the women in the Holy Palace were usually concubines and palace maids. In principle, all the women in the Holy Palace belonged to His Majesty alone.
In other words, if she, Du Paihong, wanted to enter the palace, it meant that she was the Sage Emperor's woman!
The empresses and concubines were His Majesty's wives, and the palace maids were His Majesty's slaves.
If she had to choose between an empress and a palace maid, she would rather choose a palace maid.
Therefore, Du Paihong made up his mind and said,""Then, I will choose to enter the palace as a palace maid!”
She said firmly, her hands tightly clenched into fists.
