The prime minister's daughter had a serious illness before she was about to marry the prince, but few people knew about it, which in itself was a rare thing.

Hyun Gyu can only capture the general outline of this story from the quarrel between the prime minister and his wife after Tang Xiaobai and the others left.

It turns out that this queen Li Hao has been weak and sickly since she was a child, and when she was five years old, there were Taoist priests who calculated that Li Hao's physique was cold and easy to attract evil spirits, and this life was only sixteen.

However, if you can survive the 16th birthday, you will have a smooth and stable life.

So, in order to save his daughter's life, the prime minister and his wife came up with a trick with the help of the Taoist priest to steal the beams and change the pillars.

This method is to first buy a woman with the same birthday as her daughter in the mansion, replace Li Hao in the prime minister's mansion, and then transfer the real daughter to another courtyard and send someone to take care of it.

When the daughter's sixteenth birthday arrives, kill the fake daughter raised in the house and die instead of the real daughter, so that the real daughter's life can be saved.

In this way, Li Hao has been kept in captivity in Beppu for 16 years like a caged bird that has lost his freedom. Except for his biological parents, he is not known to outsiders, and he does not know that there are outsiders.

Originally, everything was going well, but unfortunately, just as Li Hao was about to celebrate his sixteenth birthday, the fake daughter raised in the house suddenly fell into the water and drowned.

As soon as the fake daughter died, the real daughter immediately became ill, and she was dying, and the limit was approaching.

The prime minister and his wife were anxious and asked God everywhere. Fortunately, there is no end in the world, and in the end, I found a fairy girl who is said to be able to bring people back to life, and accepted a lot of money to promise to exorcise evil spirits for Li's good practices.

The fairy girl soon came to perform the ritual, and then handed a string of anklets to the prime minister's wife, and instructed her to tie them to her daughter's ankle, so that her daughter's life could be completely locked.

A few days after the fairy girl left, Li Hao really woke up quietly, but when he woke up, he completely forgot what happened first, and only held a wild cat that he picked up out of nowhere all day in a daze.

After spending a year in peace, she married the emperor who was still the crown prince as the crown princess, and the Li family does not know what happened after that.

“... From this point of view, the current queen only replaced Li Hao's identity a year before the wedding?"

Nansui sighed in surprise, and for a while she didn't know what to do to react to such a story.

Xuan Gui should be, "I'm afraid that Dao Gu was arranged by the cat demon, but I don't know if the real cause of Li Hao's death is related to the cat demon." ”

Nansui couldn't help but ask, "Is there really a human body in this world that is inherently cold and easy to attract evil spirits?" Or was that Taoist priest talking nonsense back then?"

Tang Xiaobai said, "Yes, but the Taoist priest's so-called substitution of a fake daughter for a real daughter to die is a superstitious rumor. ”

In addition, the city of Kyoto has a large population and is extremely yang, and it is difficult for evil spirits to survive. Li Hao will definitely not die because of the evil spirit.

Nansui also figured out that the most likely cause of death of the real Li Hao was that he was killed by the cat demon, and he was a little depressed, remembering the month he spent with the queen, he was irritable and scratched his hair.

... When the three of them walked out of the noodle shop, it was the best time in the afternoon sun.

There were many children running back and forth on the street, all wearing red jackets, running and chasing each other, playing and playing, all of them with red faces, and their eyes were full of joy, which was a little brighter than the sun.

The weather is fine today, cloudless. Even the women who had been busy for a year and finally had a few days of leisure came out of the house, gathered under the wall and knocked melon seeds, and the neighborhood gossiped and homely, which was extremely warm and lively.

Strings of flaming red lanterns are hung on both sides of the spacious and clean streets, echoing the new clothes of the children walking the streets on the ground, and the atmosphere of the New Year is suddenly coming.

The city of Kyoto is lit up and full of joy.

The three of them returned to the carriage after eating, and Hyun Gyu said a word, sat firmly, and marched on horseback.

A cat squatted on the eaves, licking its paws comfortably in the sun, its green pupils narrowing into a slit.

The carriage drove by, bringing up a cloud of dust and disturbing a group of sparrows on the side of the street who were chirping up the crumbs of steamed buns left behind by the children.

The sparrows fluttered and flew in all directions, like headless flies. The cat, which had been licking its fur leisurely, suddenly jumped up, its sharp claws reflecting a light in the sunlight, and an unlucky sparrow was pounced, fell on the eaves and struggled twice, and did not move.

The cat picked up the sparrow, turned and jumped, and soon disappeared above the roof.

......

When the three of them returned to the palace, Jing Yu was standing in the courtyard, watching the people in the palace step on the bench and paste the couplets on the doors.

Seeing them coming back, he said with a smile, "It's New Year's Day, for you, I've prepared, new clothes, in the room." ”

His gaze did not deliberately stay on Nan Sui as usual, but only swept it over, and then continued to look at the next person's pair.

Jing Yu wore a sky blue winter jacket with white edges today, and a pair of gray and white deerskin boots, he was very tall and thin.

Nansui bit her lower lip and stood still without moving.

Recently, she has been hiding from Senior Brother Jingyu, but today she suddenly saw that he was alienated from her, and for some reason, she was a little uncomfortable.

Jing Yu noticed the gaze beside him, turned his head to look, and wondered, "What's wrong?"

Nansui hurriedly shook his head, turned around and ran away.

Tang Xiaobai was not in a hurry to go back, stayed with Xuangui, and told Jing Yu what happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion today.

After saying it for a while, I heard Fukuda's voice come and shouted "boss" loudly.

He was wearing a red winter coat and waving his hand as he ran towards Hyun-gyu, looking like a bulky bear from a distance.

Hyun Gyu took out a brown paper bag from the storage bag and threw it over, "The bun that Liu's shop bought." ”

Fukuda hurriedly braked and stopped, caught the bun steadily, opened it and smelled it, and the fragrance overflowed.

Well, it's his favorite pork and green onion filling.

Fukuda couldn't help but be moved and shouted "boss" again, making a move.

"Stop. Hyun Gyu drank him impatiently.

"What do you have to hug two big men? Hyun Gyu rolled his eyes.

Fukuda was aggrieved and pouted, and he snorted dryly, so pitiful. After thinking about the bun in his hand, he became happy again, brought his nose closer and took a deep breath, opened his mouth and bit down, and the white and soft bun was bitten off in half.

Jing Yu saw that they were noisy, shook his head with a smile, and suddenly remembered that he was about to go to the underground palace tomorrow, and couldn't help but feel heavy in his heart, and said to Xiaobai, "The underground palace is ready." As for Nansui's ......"

Tang Xiaobai snorted, "I will appease her and leave her and Futian in the house tomorrow." ”

"Excuse me, you. Jing Yu was grateful.

The gaze once again moved back to the people who were busy posting couplets, and the memories were once again pulled back to distant childhood.

He had a hunch recently that the secret must be hidden in the dungeon......
