In prison
One stood in prison, looking out of the skylight, silent.
"Yue'er, watch your step. Qi Yan helped Ling Haoyue down the steps.
Zhou Yi hurriedly turned around and looked at the face similar to Princess Anding, his mouth was slightly open, but he couldn't speak.
Qi Yan and Ling Haoyue walked up to him: "General Zhou, don't you want to see this palace? โ
Ling Haoyue's tone was light, she and Zhou Yi had never had anything to say, the hatred of killing her father and humiliating her mother was not shared. If it weren't for Qin Jingzhong's sake, she wouldn't have come at all.
"Did you take Anding's corpse away?" Zhou Yi asked.
Qi Yan nodded: "That's right, along with the crystal coffin, they have already arrived in the capital." โ
Uncle Zhong sent news that he transported Princess Anding's coffin to the capital, Qi Yan couldn't rest assured, so he went out of the palace to confirm first, but he didn't expect that Ling Haoyue was taken away by Wen Mohan during this time.
Zhou Yi nodded and smiled: "Then I'll rest assured." "He's in prison, and he's thinking about the lost coffin.
Ling Haoyue's expression was faint, and Zhou Yi apologized to her: "I'm sorry, Yue girl, I ruined your home and let your parents not see each other for ten years." โ
Ling Juma's corpse was to be buried with Princess Anding, and because of Zhou Yi, the bones that had been lying next to Ling Juma for ten years were fake.
"You hate your father for snatching love back then, this hatred, the life of your father and mother, plus ten years of not being able to accompany you, from now on, my father and mother no longer owe you. Ling Haoyue looked at Zhou Yi and said lightly, "I won't ask to kill you again, Zhou Yi, from now on, the grievances will be cleared." โ
In fact, Zhou Yi's life is more uncomfortable than death, whether he is alive or dead, she doesn't care.
Looking at Ling Haoyue's departing back, Zhou Yi's mind recalled the past of the three of them in the past......
Fifteen years of Chengde
On this day, it was the birthday of the first emperor, that is, the Western Qin Emperor at that time.
"My daughter wishes her father eternal peace and prosperity for the country. Princess Anding said with a smile.
Emperor Xiqin was overjoyed, and hurriedly smiled: "Hurry up, Jingjing, you said that you would surprise me today." โ
The queen took over and said with a smile: "Jingjing is not going to take out the gift you prepared for your father, your father is in a hurry." โ
Princess Anding was blessed: "The sons obey orders." After speaking, he clapped his hands, and someone from the palace had already brought up the prepared gifts.
Princess Anding personally opened the scroll, and a picture of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains was instantly displayed in front of everyone.
"Father, today is your birthday, and my son would like to wish my father a long life. โ
Emperor Long of Western Qin was overjoyed, and praised loudly: "Okay! It is worthy of being my daughter, and my father likes this gift very much." โ
The queen smiled: "Your Majesty, you don't know, in order to paint this painting, Jingjing personally went out of the palace and stood at the highest point of the capital, looking at the rivers and mountains in the distance. โ
"Queen Mother, this is what your sons should do, why do you say it. Princess Anding's face was slightly red, and she was a little embarrassed.
Emperor Xiqin nodded and smiled: "Jingjing has a heart, I am very pleased." Someone came, hung the princess's painting in the imperial study, and I wanted to look at it every day. โ
Princess Anding is the daughter of Emperor Xiqin, and now she is even more happy, and for a while, everyone's eyes unconsciously fell on this princess with golden branches and jade leaves, and one of them looked at Princess Anding intently, this person is Zhou Yi.
"Father, son wants to marry Princess Anding. Zhou Yi happily said to his father, General Zhou.
General Zhou looked at the glamorous princess and glanced at his son: "Princess Anding is Your Majesty's princess, and she is deeply favored. โ
Zhou Yi is the only son in the family, he has been spoiled since he was a child, and he has developed a gentleman who is not good at writing and martial arts. By the time General Zhou wanted to correct him, it was too late.
Zhou Yi clenched his fists tightly: "I just like her and want to marry her." โ
"Then it's up to you to see if you're capable. General Zhou didn't care about his words, General Minglie's Mansion was not one of the top wealthy nobles in Beijing, and Zhou Yi was a gentleman, he had no family background worthy of the status of a princess, and he had no ability, it was too difficult to marry a princess.
During the banquet, Princess Anding only felt that the banquet was stuffy, so she quietly walked out of the palace and breathed her breath. Someone came out behind him unprepared.
"Your Highness the Princess. Zhou Yi saluted Princess Anding.
Princess Anding was taken aback, and Aunt Jinyu beside her hurriedly blocked in front of the princess: "Who are you and what do you want to do?"
Princess Anding didn't speak, just looked him up and down, and it seemed that he was the son of a family.
Zhou Yi smiled: "Princess, below is Zhou Yi, the son of General Minglie." I have a question for the princess, but I wonder if she can answer it. โ
Princess Anding frowned slightly, but her good upbringing made her not say anything to refuse: "Young General Zhou, you ask, this palace can answer as much as possible." โ
Zhou Yi's face was overjoyed: "Princess, what kind of man do you like?"
Aunt Jinyu hurriedly reprimanded: "Bold, you actually ask the princess such a question!"
Zhou Yi hurriedly said: "Princess, Zhou Yi really loves the princess and asks the princess for forgiveness." โ
Princess Anding looked at him, she really hadn't heard much about General Minglie's son, the family background of the General's Mansion was not bad, but this Young General Zhou had never heard of it, it seemed that he was a gentleman.
"Major General Zhou, this palace admires Wen Tao's martial arts strategy and heroic heroes. After Princess Anding finished speaking, she said to Aunt Jinyu, "Auntie, let's go back to the banquet." โ
Zhou Yi muttered to himself: "A heroic hero." โ
Princess Anding originally intended to let him retreat, but what she didn't expect was that Zhou Yi went to the military camp alone that night to practice.
There was one less gentleman in the capital, and by the time Zhou Yi reappeared in the capital, it was already a year later, and he had become the number one warrior in the city defense army.
The Imperial Study
"The last general, Zhou Yi, the captain of the city defense army, see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live. Zhou Yi's voice was rich and loud, and he was no longer the joking gentleman he used to be.
Emperor Xiqin had heard about Zhou Yi's past, and when he saw that he was now a prodigal son, he sighed with emotion: "Flat." I have heard that not only are you highly skilled in martial arts, and you are known as the number one warrior in the army, but the soldiers you have trained are also the strongest in the army. โ
Zhou Yi replied: "Thank you Your Majesty for your compliment, these are the responsibilities of the last general." โ
Emperor Xiqin nodded: "The prodigal son turned back, arrogant but not dry, not bad." If Xiqin is like you, my country will be like an iron bucket, and I will reward you, what do you want?"
Zhou Yi knelt down towards Emperor Xiqin and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the last general has only one wish in this life, and if Your Majesty can fulfill it, the last general will be grateful." โ
"Tell me about it. Emperor Xiqin said with a smile. The subordinates have what they want, and the happier the superiors are, it means that the monarch can use this thing to make the subordinates work for him.
A hint of blush flashed on Zhou Yi's face: "Your Majesty, since the last general saw Princess Anding's face at His Majesty's birthday banquet last year, he will never forget the princess, and beg His Majesty to marry the princess to the last general." โ
Emperor Xiqin's expression changed slightly, it turned out that this person was asking for his most beloved princess.
"Last year, I remember you joined the barracks last year. โ
Zhou Yi nodded: "After the last general came out of the palace, he went directly to the barracks. โ
Emperor Xi Qin asked someone to check Zhou Yi, he used to be a gentleman, he would only drink and walk horses every day, since he went to the barracks, he changed his previous nature, from a small soldier, quickly grew into the first warrior in the army, if it is not for the lack of qualifications, let alone to be a captain, the general can.
"It turns out that your prodigal son turned back because he wanted to marry my daughter. โ
Zhou Yi knelt straight on the ground: "Ask Your Majesty to fulfill it, if Your Majesty feels that the last general is not worthy of the princess, the last general is willing to work hard to hone himself until he is worthy of the princess." โ
Zhou Yi's tone was firm, this was his wish, and he would give everything to achieve this wish.
"Yes, since you are willing to turn back for the sake of Jingjing's prodigal son, then I believe that you will be good to her. Emperor Xiqin said with a smile, "Come on, the proposed purpose, Zhou Yi, the son of General Minglie, is outstanding, and has the courage of ten thousand people, so he will marry Princess Anding in Zhou Yi and marry him on a certain day." โ
Zhou Yi was overjoyed: "The last general thanks Your Majesty Longen, long live my emperor, long live, long live." โ
The decree of the Western Qin Emperor's marriage soon reached the ears of Princess Anding.
"What! Father and Emperor have promised the palace to Zhou Yi!" Princess Anding's hand that was painting was stunned, and the painting was ruined.
Aunt Jinyu nodded: "This is a real princess, and it has been spread all over the palace." โ
Princess Anding pursed her lips lightly, thought about it, and walked out: "This palace is going to find the queen mother, this palace doesn't like Zhou Yi, don't marry him." โ
Aunt Jinyu hurriedly stopped her: "Princess, this is Your Majesty's will, I'm afraid that the queen will not agree." โ
"No, this matter is related to the happiness of the second half of the palace's life, the palace must ask the father and the queen mother to dissolve the marriage, the palace is not familiar with Zhou Yi, and I don't want to marry him. โ
Princess Anding made up her mind and walked directly towards the queen's Kunning Palace.
"Queen Mother, son-in-law don't marry Zhou Yi. โ
As soon as Princess Anding ran in, she didn't care about anything else, and said directly to the queen.
The queen frowned slightly: "Jingjing, you are a princess, how can you be so disrespectful." "Before the person arrived, the voice arrived first.
Princess Anding hurriedly threw herself into the queen's arms: "Queen Mother, the son is wrong, isn't this an emergency." Queen mother, son-in-law heard that his father was going to marry his son to Zhou Yi, the son of General Minglie, mother, son-in-law doesn't want to marry him, can you let your father take back his will?"
The queen only thought that her daughter's family was in a temper, and said with a smile: "Jingjing, this holy decree has been issued, your father will definitely not take back the will, and that Zhou Yi quickly became the number one warrior in the army because of your prodigal son's return, whether it is ability or your heart, the queen mother is also at ease." โ
