Introduction——

Ah Lan was locked up in the cold palace for fifteen years, and the first time he left the palace was as an abandoned son to marry instead of his sister.

Married to the notorious enemy prince Luo Changtian.

Before getting married, her father told her: "Alan, you have to believe in your father." ”

After getting married, Luo Changtian said to her: "You are obedient, I will be good to you." ”

But the two armies faced each other, she was tied to the city wall, sharp arrows pierced her body, and no one cared about her life.

==============

Chapter Sample——

Chapter I

In the most remote corner of the palace, there is a cold palace, which is inaccessible and overgrown with weeds.

However, there are many secret guards on the periphery, not letting people from the outside in, and not letting people from inside come out.

Lan has been here for fifteen years.

She is the daughter of the deceased Empress Yuan, and it is said that it was because of her uncle's rebellion, so she was rejected by her father when she was still an infant and left here for more than ten years.

Even few people in the outside world know that Emperor Cheng has a daughter in addition to the pampered Princess Mingyu.

Ah Lan leaned on the table in front of the window, raised his hand, spread his five fingers, and the beams of sunlight shining in from the window passed through his fingers.

She put her fingers together, and the beam of light behind her hand disappeared in an instant.

As if she had found some fun toy, her fingers parted and closed again and again, and closed and separated.

But there was no expression on the excessively beautiful slap face, and a pair of eyes like ink jade were also unwavering.

"Princess!" the palace maid Shan'er suddenly rushed in in a panic.

"What's wrong?" Lan straightened up and turned his head to look.

"Your Majesty wants to marry you to the prince of Yueguo!" Shan'er's tears were about to fall.

Ah Lan was stunned for a moment, "Prince Yue?"

Although she couldn't go out, she knew a lot of news from the outside, and she was especially impressed by this prince of Yueguo.

Luo Changtian, the prince of Yueguo, is the seventh son of the monarch of Yueguo, because of the vision that fell from the sky when he was born - the grass withered, the death of hundreds of animals, and the drought of the capital of Yue for three years, which caused the monarch of Yue to be very disgusted and jealous of this son, but at the age of five, he exiled people to the most bitter place in Yue.

But he didn't expect Luo Chang to have a great destiny, not only did he not die there, but he also collected the forces of the bitter land under his command, and many years later led the soldiers and horses back to the imperial court, and the prisoners who had bullied his brothers and sisters killed and imprisoned, and the monarch of Yue Guo also became a puppet in his hands, although he was still the identity of the prince externally, but everyone knew that he was already the controller of Yue Guo.

What Ah Lan remembers most is the evaluation of Luo Changtian's character - brutal and unkind, ruthless, and moody.

The Sui State and the Yue State have been at war for three years, and the last year against the enemy is Luo Changtian, the brutality of the opponent's methods and the cunning of the use of troops make the Sui State deeply jealous.

The strength of the two countries is equal, but the army can afford it, but the people can't afford it, this year, Emperor Cheng chose to make peace all the way, and Luo Changtian reached an agreement to stop the war.

Three days ago, Luo Changtian arrived in the capital of Sui, and when Emperor Cheng asked him what he wanted, he said in front of a group of courtiers that he asked to marry Emperor Cheng's only daughter - Princess Mingyu!

"Didn't you say you wanted to marry Mingyu?" Ah Lan didn't know why she suddenly became her.

"How could Princess Mingyu be willing to go? The prince of Yue Kingdom is also merciless to women, and the beautiful women given to him by others are all going in and out horizontally, and none of them will end well!" Shan'er said, "I heard that Princess Mingyu and Concubine Yao Guifei went to see Your Majesty together, it must be that they slandered Your Majesty to let the princess suffer this kind of suffering!"

"Princess!" Shan'er cried, "Let's go to His Majesty to plead for mercy, you are also his daughter, even if you have been like this all these years, how can you still push you to death now?!"

"Don't go!" a hoarse voice came from outside the door, and a rickety old eunuch walked in.

He is Liu An, along with Shan'er, and is the only two servants Ah Lan has had by his side over the years.

Liu An's eyes were grim and cold, he stared at Shan'er, and said something rebellious in his mouth: "What's the use of begging him? If he really treats the princess as his daughter, he won't keep the princess here for more than ten years! I'm afraid he can't wait for the princess to die early!"

Chapter II

Shan'er was frightened, but when she heard this, she couldn't help but argue: "How can Your Majesty not care about the princess?

"Don't say it. Ah Lan suddenly spoke.

The two of them fell silent in unison and bowed their heads respectfully to her.

Ah Lan looked at the door quietly, and after a while, he only heard the sound of footsteps outside.

Emperor Cheng's side was the chief eunuch Wang Gonggong appeared at the door, followed by a long line of palace people carrying boxes, "Your Royal Highness Princess, these are the dowries that Your Majesty has prepared for you, please take a look." ”

The prince turned to one side, and the palace people behind him opened the box, and all of them were priceless treasures.

Ah Lan glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze, "I want to see my father." ”

The prince bowed his head, "Your Majesty is busy with government affairs, I'm afraid I don't have time to see Her Royal Highness the princess." ”

Shan'er was about to cry angrily, and after the princess left, she said: "When the slave maid just came back, I obviously heard that His Majesty was playing Keju with Princess Mingyu. ”

Liu An glanced at her, and she immediately lowered her head and didn't dare to speak.

Ah Lan looked at the boxes all over the ground and was silent.

Mingyu is a daughter who is held in the palm of her father's hand, and in front of Mingyu, he is no different from an ordinary father.

Her father's care and gentleness for Mingyu was something she had never received.

She turned and went back to the room, where there was a painting on the table, and the ink had dried.

The man in the painting is majestic and handsome, and he is the father she admired the most since she was a child.

Lan lit the fire and threw the gift, which he hadn't had time to give, into the brazier.

……

Emperor Cheng didn't give Ah Lan time to react, and the next day he sent two grandmothers over and forcibly took her out of the palace.

Luo Changtian said that he wanted to marry in the Sui Kingdom, and Emperor Cheng agreed.

As if knowing that she would resist, the grandmothers grabbed her arm the whole time, did not let her move, groomed her like a puppeteer, and stuffed her into a sedan chair when it was over.

Then he tied her hands and feet with ropes and gagged her mouth with something.

The grandmothers are still not at ease, and pay attention to the movement in the sedan chair from time to time.

But Ah Lan was very peaceful and did not do useless struggles.

At last the sedan chair stopped, and a grandmother lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, quickly untied the rope, took the strip of cloth, and quickly whispered: "For the sake of your two faithful servants, please also ask the princess to know more about current affairs." ”

Then he helped her down.

Suddenly, an angry low male voice sounded in front of him: "Wait. ”

The grandmother next to her stopped and saluted respectfully: "His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Ah Lan was covered with a red hijab and couldn't see anything, but she felt a trembling aura approaching with a burst of unhurried footsteps, and then stopped in front of her.

Suddenly, the hijab was removed.

A man with deep eyebrows, a tall figure, and an imposing man stood in front of her, he was wearing a red wedding dress, and Ah Lan knew that this was the person she was going to marry today - Luo Changtian, the prince of Yueguo.

Luo Changtian stretched out his hand, hooked her chin, forced her to raise her head, and looked at her face, he suddenly squinted his eyes and said, "We have met before?"

Ah Lan lowered his eyes and said, "No." ”

Luo Changtian hid the strange emotion in his eyes and withdrew his hand, "Are you Princess Mingyu?"

Lan said, "No. ”

Her tone was calm, but the officials on the side who were sending off relatives were so frightened that their faces changed.

Luo Changtian smiled, but his smile made people shudder involuntarily: "Then you explain to me what's going on?

The officials on the side hurriedly stepped forward and said: "There is a reason for the incident, don't misunderstand the prince! Princess Mingyu suddenly fell ill and couldn't marry the prince, our majesty decided to change the candidate after consideration, this is our eldest princess, the eldest princess is happy and quiet, and she has lived in a simple house for many years, so outsiders ......"

"You married me voluntarily?" Luo Changtian suddenly spoke up, interrupting the official's explanation.

Under the wide sleeves, Ah Lan's hands tightened, and she made a decision in just one breath, "I was forced and didn't want to ......"

"My reputation is not very good, how many women who want to cling to glory and wealth dare not approach, since you are willing to marry me, then you must like me very much?" Luo Changtian said as if he hadn't heard her words.

Ah Lan looked up in amazement and met his smiling face.

"I don't want to marry you!"

"Your Royal Highness Princess!" the official next to him warned him.

Luo Changtian still didn't listen to it, and said to himself: "Since you like me so much, then I won't pursue today's matter, I just want to replace Mingyu as my crown princess, but it's not so easy." ”

He turned around and strode away, raised his hand and made a gesture, and immediately someone quickly paved a charcoal road in front of Ah Lan, and the heat wave hit his face, and the surrounding guests hurriedly retreated, looking at Luo Changtian in disbelief.

Among today's guests, most of them were officials of the Sui State, and they had heard of Luo Changtian's reputation for being violent and ruthless, but they had never seen it with their own eyes, and now it was an eye-opener.

Ah Lan's eyes were full of shock, and his hands were already clenched on his sleeves.

She looked at the other side, at the other end of Huotan Road, Luo Changtian sat on a chair and stretched out his hand to her, and his voice was gentle: "My crown princess, come here, I'm waiting for you here." ”

Chapter III

Ah Lan subconsciously took a step back.

"I don't want to marry you, I was forced!" she said.

Luo Changtian's expression was slightly cold, but his tone was even more gentle: "Don't make trouble, come here." ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince!" an official of the Sui State stood up and said angrily, "Your Majesty promised to marry the princess to you, in order to make the two countries good for Qin and Jin, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also promised to treat our princess well, but now what does it mean, openly insulting my Sui royal family, is it a provocation to our Majesty?!"

Other officials echoed one after another, Luo Changtian and their eldest princess had no grievances and no enmity, why did they make things difficult for her like this? Not to insult their majesty!

Luo Changtian didn't even deny it, his arrogance was evident, and he said casually: "What do you want to do, do you want Princess Mingyu to come and take this path, or do you want me and Your Majesty to talk about the truce again?"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the officials of the Sui State changed.

How much effort did Emperor Cheng spend on the truce, they all know, who dares to reply to this easily?

Thinking of what Emperor Cheng had explained before he came, he wanted to make this family affair successful no matter what, gritted his teeth, walked to Ah Lan's side and whispered: "Eldest princess, please think about your two loyal servants, think about Your Majesty, and think about Sui Kingdom!"

Ah Lanqiao's face was tense and expressionless, and the palms of her hands had pinched the corners of her sleeves into wrinkles.

"What did Father say?" she asked softly.

A trace of pity flashed in the eyes of the officials who sent off the relatives, and they still said that Emperor Cheng "will succeed in any matter what".

After Ah Lan heard this, his lips turned white, and his mouth grease was almost unable to cover it.

She stepped forward, stepping closer to the blazing coals.

The hearts of the people around them were raised, and some people couldn't bear to turn their heads away.

Luo Changtian looked at it with interest, and there was no unbearability on his face.

Ah Lan stopped in front of the charcoal fire, closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and stepped on it-

The expected burning pain did not come, Ah Lan suddenly opened his eyes and found that he had been held in Luo Changtian's arms.

Ah Lan was stunned for a moment, and she didn't know how he came to her in such a short time.

"Your father treats you as an outcast, and you are still willing to sacrifice for your so-called family and country?" The person who practiced martial arts had a sensitive ear, and he heard what the official who sent him to his relatives just now.

Ah Lan bowed his head slightly and said, "My people are still in his hands." ”

Luo Changtian laughed.

She was still a little afraid, and her heart was pounding.

She heard Luo Changtian say in her ear: "In addition to walking over in person, there is another way, I will hold you." ”

His figure froze for a moment, and then Lan slowly raised his hand and wrapped it around his broad shoulders.

Luo Changtianlang laughed, bent down and hugged her horizontally, and strode in the direction of Xitang.

The atmosphere was relaxed, and it slowly returned to its previous joy.

After being sent into the cave room after worshipping the hall, Luo Changtian did not stay for long, Ah Lan sent away the strange maid around him, and took off the hijab himself.

The guard at the door was Luo Changtian's guard, who didn't take her, the princess of the Sui Kingdom, in his eyes at all, and chatted as if no one was around.

"I heard that the princesses are arrogant, so won't our Highness be controlled in the future?"

"How is it possible, what do you think? Who is our Highness? What kind of woman dares to take care of him? And this princess - snort, even if she has that guts, it depends on whether His Highness gives her the qualifications to take care of her, you don't think Your Highness really likes her, right? Don't be stupid, the reason why Your Highness brought her over is just because you have had enough, the goal has been achieved, and you don't want to waste time, so you are stupid to think so much!"

"Maybe this princess is thinking too much?" snickered.

Suddenly, someone said: "I thought His Royal Highness's crown princess would be Miss Fu, but I didn't expect ......."

"His Royal Highness marrying the princess is for the sake of big things, which does not affect the relationship between him and Miss Fu, even if this 'crown princess' goes back with us, she will not be able to shake Miss Fu's status. ”

"There are so many people who can be responsible for the negotiation, why did Your Highness come in person? It's not because there is a medicine in the Imperial Palace of the Sui Kingdom that Miss Fu needs to recuperate, and His Royal Highness still has to stay in the Sui Kingdom for a while, do you know why? Or is it to help Miss Fu find something!"

"Yes, yes, Miss Fu's status in His Highness's heart is undoubted, I heard His Highness say yesterday that she would go back earlier, so as not to worry Miss Fu......"

Ah Lan sat on the bed, listening to the remarks outside, and his eyes were uneasy.

Chapter IV

It was getting dark outside, and Ah Lan was a little sleepy, so she gently rested her head on the head of the bed and closed her eyes.

I don't know how long it took, Luo Changtian hadn't appeared yet, and suddenly there was a little movement by the window, and Ah Lan immediately opened his eyes.

A masked man in black jumped in through the window, revealing a pair of grim eyes, "Princess." ”

Ah Lan was overjoyed and stood up, "Liu An!"

Then he whispered to him, "Where is Shan'er?"

"That girl is fine, the slave will take you away. ”

Ah Lan glanced at the door, there was no movement outside, I don't know if those guards were gone, or if they were solved by Liu An.

She was prepared, quickly changed out of the conspicuous and inconvenient wedding dress on her body, and quietly left through the window with Liu An.

Liu An jumped on the roof with her, and quietly left under the cover of night.

He was once the number one master around the Empress Yuan, and this action was not noticed.

After a lot of effort, Shan'er had already prepared a carriage to meet him outside the city.

After getting into the carriage, Shan'er disguised Ah Lan to hide her outstanding appearance.

"Where are we going?" Ah Lan lifted the curtain, it was pitch black outside, Liu An relied on his familiarity with the road, holding a torch, and there was no obstacle to catch the car.

"Go to the Northwest. Liu An said, "Let's go find the prince." ”

Ah Lan was stunned for a moment.

The prince Liu An said was Jing Wang Wei Shenyin, her imperial uncle.

During these years in the cold palace, Emperor Cheng would visit her once a year, but King Jing often went quietly, he brought her all kinds of things she needed, taught her to read and learn calligraphy, and told her about outside things.

It's just that he is now fighting in the northwest and is not in the capital. Liu An said: "Your Majesty has forced you to death, the prince will never sit idly by, as long as you go to the northwest, everything can be solved." ”

Ah Lan didn't speak.

……

Luo Changtian didn't go back to the happy room, he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, as if he was drunk.

"His Royal Highness the Prince!" suddenly a guard ran over.

"What's the matter?" Luo Changtian didn't open his eyes.

"The crown princess is gone!"

"Oh?" he said, "gone?"

"Yes......" The guard knelt on the ground, cold sweat was dripping, Luo Changtian was silent, he didn't dare to get up.

"Take me to see it. Luo Changtian stood up and went to the happy room.

A complicated and gorgeous wedding dress was thrown on the bed, and there were still traces by the window, and it was obvious that he had run by himself.

The confidant general Qiu Zi recommended: "Your Highness, your subordinates will take people to chase after you!"

The guards were also in a hurry.

Luo Changtian didn't hurry to pick up the wedding dress, rubbed it in his hand, and showed an interesting and extraordinarily penetrating smile, "Don't worry, let her run for a while." ”

Saying that, he turned around and walked to the door, paused again, and said, "Block the news first, don't let the Emperor of Sui know, otherwise my crown princess may be in trouble." ”

Qiu Zijian knows what kind of virtue his master is, and he is no longer in a hurry, nor does he ask, just "yes".

Luo Changtian drank some wine, went back to the room for a good night's rest, practiced the sword for an hour after breakfast in the morning, and enjoyed the scenery in the courtyard for a while without hurrying, before instructing Qiu Zijian: "Go, go and pick up the princess home." ”

He was originally the focus of the Sui State, and this group rode out of the city on horseback, which naturally attracted the attention of Emperor Cheng, and Ah Lan's escape could not be hidden.

……

Ah Lan and they hurried overnight, and at this time they were already some distance away from Beijing, and they were resting in an inn.
