For days, I didn't go out, either admiring the orchids in the yard, or hiding in the study to read books, staying in peace, not going anywhere, let alone seeing anyone. The prince www.biquge.info of Pen & Fun & Pavilion came to me two or three times, and Zang Er rejected him on the grounds that he was sick in bed and inconvenient to see guests.

I was engrossed in looking at the heavy bamboo slips one after another, and Zang Er was collecting the ones I had read for me from time to time, and while collecting them, she seemed to complain: "The princess is probably the most read woman in the world, but the princess is not the prince, so why do you need to read so many books? This volume is so bulky, I don't know which idiot came up with this method to write." ”

I snickered and said angrily: "Why do you talk so unruly, you are really getting lazier and lazier, I just let you collect a few books for me on the side, why do you complain? If you are not happy, just put it down and call someone else to do it." ”

"Don't be angry, princess, where am I complaining, I think this broken thing looks really hard, and I'm worried that the princess is tired of her hands. I can't figure out why the king has always only ordered the princess to read more, and never forced the other princesses to read so many books, but I am afraid that the princess has already read all the books in the world. Even I, Gong E, who reads with me every day, can memorize one or two poems, and my mind is filled with a bunch of people's names, Confucius, Mencius, Shang and Martingale, and the ...... of the underworld."

"Hades and Voiders. I dragged my voice and corrected her with a smile.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's the Void Son. I've heard that the Void Son is still the son of the current Kui Kingdom. Zang'er said to herself with a happy face.

I suddenly felt a little strange, I also heard the life experience of this Void Son from the prince Fu (the prince's teacher). The prince said that the prince was the son of the nobles of the country at the moment, because his mother had been left out in the cold, so he had not been taken seriously, so he buried himself in books and treatises all day long, but he was a man of insight who was rich in learning and five cars.

But I hadn't told Zang'er about this, so I asked her with a curious smile, "How do you know, where did you hear it?"

"The prince told me!" Zang'er replied without thinking, but then lowered her head, her face flushed.

I looked at Zang'er's expression carefully, and secretly guessed in my heart, could it be that Zang'er likes the prince?

"Hmm. I pretended to have an epiphany, and deliberately said in a mocking tone: "No wonder every time I want to send palace people to refuse the prince, you take the initiative to rush forward, it turns out that this is the case." You like the Prince, don't you?"

I saw her eyes drooping, and she was completely red when I asked so suddenly, and her form was very cute.

Knowing that I was deliberately teasing her, she hurriedly whispered, "Where is the matter? The princess must not make fun of Zang'er with this kind of thing." Zang Er didn't dare to have those ridiculous ideas, Zang Er just admired the prince's knowledge and character, and felt the prince's infatuation with the princess, and admired it even more. That's it, the princess doesn't want to make fun of me anymore. ”

As she spoke, Zang Er picked up the stack of books and put them on the shelf, and ran out with a shy face.

I covered my mouth and snickered, and suddenly felt that the woman in the world who thought of spring was so cute and moving.

Zang'er is very handsome, with willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, a small and delicate round face as bright as the moon in the sky, and a lively and lovely temperament. It's just that I was so careless, Zang'er was with me all day long, and I didn't even notice that she had feelings for the prince.

Then she sighed secretly, if Zang'er didn't like the prince, even if it was any other prince, maybe she would still have some hope in the future to ask her uncle to point out the marriage for her, but what she liked was the prince, and only one generation wife was enough to make people shudder.

Thinking of this, the beautiful and hidden face of Mrs. Dai suddenly appeared in my mind, and I couldn't help but shudder, and I no longer had the heart to read the book.

In the depths of my heart, I may still be very firm in my belief that my uncle favors me more than any other princess, and that my uncle and queen will treat me as her own, and will do everything in her power to keep me safe. And as long as I stay in this Maolan Hall honestly and don't provoke Situ Chengjin, Mrs. Dai will only stare dryly. In the future, I will find a husband who knows each other and spend this life together.

I didn't see Zang'er come back for a long time, so I put away the scrolls on the case by myself, got up and walked to a large rhombic window that was pushed open, and leaned in a daze. Looking up at the sky, the sky was covered with clouds, like a big coarse gray old linen cloth, and the lines of the eaves were like cracks in the coarse cloth being torn.

"Queen Kangding!"

All thoughts were shattered by the bad news outside the temple gate.

I heard a long, shrill cry like a sharp dagger piercing my heart. After a moment of suffocation, he didn't have time to cry, so he had to fly straight to Jingshou Palace.

Zang'er was coming back from outside in a panic at this time, blocking the Maolan Hall and stretching out her arms to stop me, knelt down and begged bitterly: "The princess must not go at this time! The king has decreed that before the queen's body is buried in the Zi Palace, no one is allowed to enter the Jingshou Palace without the permission of the king, so as not to disturb the soul, everything must wait for the Zi Palace to be moved to the funeral palace, and the order can only go to mourn!"

"What mourning? What royal decree? Uncle and mother, she won't die, she won't die!"

I was so anxious at this time, and it seemed that there were ten thousand arrows piercing my heart, so I didn't care about being entangled with Zang'er, so I had to push one of her arms away and hurried to Jingshou Palace in a trance.

Zang'er cried behind me: "The queen is gone! Has the princess forgotten what the queen had told her before her death?

I covered my ears with my hands, stumbling along the way, tears flowing like mountain water, and I only felt the cold I had never felt before, shivering all over, as if the blood in my veins had congealed into ice.

I don't know how long I ran, I staggered into Jingshou Palace, only to see groups of palace people kneeling inside and outside the courtyard, sobbing in a low voice, buzzing in my ears.

I was out of breath and desperate to run towards the dormitory, which was covered with white curtains, but was stopped by two guards: "Princess, I am offended. The king has decreed, the queen has been killed, in order to protect the queen's dignity and peace, no one is allowed to come forward, so as not to disturb the soul. ”

I was completely speechless, only desperately weeping and struggling. I didn't know where I got the strength, but I suddenly drew the sword from one of the guards and danced wildly, so frightened that they had to retreat.

I looked like I had been drowning in the water for a long time, and finally I cried hysterically: "Dog minion, you'd better get me out of the way! No one will try to stop me! My aunt won't die, she won't die!"

Probably they'd never seen me so mad, and they were almost stunned. With a sword in one hand, I rushed into the dormitory, knelt in front of my aunt's couch, trembling with the other, and carefully lifted the corner of the phoenix quilt.

The familiar face appeared in front of my eyes, as if she was asleep, her eyes were slightly closed, the corners of her mouth were smiling, her temples were cloudy, her skin was better than snow, and there were still undried tears in the corners of her eyes. It's just that she will never wake up again, never call me Xi'er again, and never shush me again.

I dropped the long sword in my hand, and reached over with trembling hands to wipe away the tears on both sides of her, and couldn't help but cry bitterly.

No, that's not true. I can't believe that God shouldn't have done me so badly.

Seven years ago, my father and mother left me one after another, leaving me alone in this vast world. So far, in this huge ** palace, my uncle and mother are my only reliable relatives, the woman who took care of me and raised me with all kinds of love and care, and the woman who is no different from my biological mother in my heart.

It's just a few days, just a few days, a few days ago she was still promising me happiness in this life, why did she suddenly die? Could it be because of me?

The more I thought about it, the more panicked I felt, and a chill gradually felt in my back.

Suddenly, I heard an angry roar from behind: "A bunch of waste, why don't you stop the princess and let her mess around like this!"

Before I could look back, I was caught by two or three guards. You don't have to look to know who it is.

There are tears in the corners of her uncle's eyes, and the only person in this world who can make her cry is her uncle Wang. Why did she weep? I raised my teary eyes and glared at him with an angry eyebrow, as if he were the murderer of my aunt and uncle, and I forgot to salute.

With one hand behind his back and the other stretching out a finger, my uncle Wang pressed straight at me and said angrily, "Look at what you look like!"

I didn't care about the courtesy of my father and daughter, and asked viciously, "Why did my uncle and mother die suddenly?"

My uncle, Wang, glared at me with a grim face, but did not speak. Behind him stood Mrs. Dai, who was even more disdainful and contemptuous, as if she was just a bystander to the death of her uncle.

I must be sad and confused, can I still expect a character like Mrs. Dai to sincerely mourn my uncle? No, she still has a so-called, she is gloating, she is sitting and waiting for this day, and no one in this ** can be above her from now on.

I was angry with my uncle for a long time, and this silence completely angered me, and I said angrily: "The tears in the corners of her eyes have not dried up after my uncle, and you are the only one in this world who can make her cry! If you want to please that hidden country, or in order to please your favorite concubine, you will definitely marry me to that hidden king, you can directly order, who dares to disobey! Why do you want to attack my uncle? Why do you want to kill my uncle? Why!"

I must be crazy.

In the past seven years, I have never vented my resentment so recklessly, although I have the love of my uncle and the king, but I always remind myself in my heart that no matter how spoiled I am, I am just an orphan of the royal family. So in this **, I learned to be well-behaved, not daring to make a difference in front of my uncle and king, being careful everywhere, forbearance everywhere, and pleasing everywhere.

"Presumptuous!" Uncle Wang finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and roared angrily, which frightened Mrs. Dai and the palace people beside him to tremble.

He had probably never seen me so disrespectful, and I had never dared to disobey him like this.

I still glared at him, as if he was no longer the uncle who loved and cultivated me in the past, and instantly had a blood feud with me.

"Come on, escort Princess Tianze into the side hall and ground! Before the queen's funeral is over, no one is allowed to let her out without my orders!" My uncle and king glared at me angrily, as if I were a fierce dog that had bitten my master, and I must be punished.

As soon as I finished speaking, two guards with steel helmets stepped forward to escort me to the side hall.

"Let go of me!"

I burst into tears, and I was half-dragged and half-dragged by these two people, and in the midst of desperate struggles, suddenly a man stepped forward from the crowd and knelt down in front of my uncle and king.

"Father and the king are angry! The queen mother has no heirs before her death, and the fox seal is the only adopted daughter under her knees. If the father really wants to punish the fox seal, it is not too late to punish the queen mother after the funeral, please think twice about it!"

I twisted my neck and looked back, it was Prince Chengjin. Looking at his words and his voice, it is indeed a true feeling.

At this time, the two guards also stopped, and Uncle Wang stared at the prince kneeling with an expressionless face, and Mrs. Dai who was standing on the side was already frightened.

So, without waiting for his uncle to speak, Mrs. Dai angrily rebuked the prince: "Shut up! As the crown prince, you don't know how to share your father's worries, but speak for this person who disobeys your father's king.

Mrs. Dai's reprimand, which made the prince's expression obviously cringe, but he just knelt there tremblingly, bowing his head and saying nothing.

"Who said he didn't have a place to speak?" said Uncle Wang sharply, and Mrs. Dai was too frightened to speak again.

There was silence for a while, and everyone was worried, and they couldn't understand the thoughts of their uncle and king.

"He is my prince of Xiqiu, the future king, who said that he has no part in speaking!" said his uncle Wang Zheng.

Mrs. Dai hurriedly greeted her timidly: "Yes, yes, it is the concubine who said the wrong thing in a moment's confusion, and the concubine is just worried about the king." The queen had just died, and the king was grieving. The concubine was afraid that the prince would be confused for a while, and she would be open-mouthed, and then bumped into the king, which made the king angry and angry. ”

My uncle didn't answer, but shouted at the two steel-helmeted guards beside me, "Release the princess!"

"Don't thank you yet!" the prince still knelt there, turning his head and whispering to me.

My eyes were crying painfully, my arms were being pulled in pain, and my whole body seemed to float. Despite all the doubts in my heart about my uncle's sudden death, I knew that I had to admit my mistake. Otherwise, if I am confined and cannot mourn my uncle's filial piety, I will regret it for the rest of my life.

I knelt on the ground, kowtowed to my uncle Wang, and muttered reluctantly: "Uncle Xie Wang Chengquan Fox Seal is a filial piety!"

"The queen mother died suddenly, and the fox was extremely sad, and for a while, he had no words and deeds, and then he contradicted his father, so he asked his father to forgive her for the sake of her deep affection with the queen mother and daughter!"

My uncle Wang glared at me fiercely, but without answering, he slowly moved from me and the prince to the front of my uncle's bed, hesitated for a moment, and said in a loud voice: "Pass the order, Queen Kangding suddenly fell ill and died of Chinese New Year's Eve at the age of eight." The queen was a mother of the world all her life, virtuous and meritorious, and was crowned Queen Kangding Xianmu Duande, buried in the main mausoleum of the king, and buried thousands of martyrs. When Shen is for the queen to clean and change clothes, bury into the Zi Palace (note: the ancient emperor and queen died with Zi wood to make a coffin, called Zi Palace), set the main hall of Jingshou Palace for the funeral palace (note: the ancient emperor after the death of the Zi Palace parked the place called the funeral palace, the funeral palace is generally the main hall of the palace that symbolizes the identity of the emperor during his lifetime), and the queen Zi Palace will be moved to the funeral palace when the son is waiting. For the funeral of Queen Kangding, during the funeral, the whole country mourned, and the subjects of Xiqiu wept for three days and were relieved, no need to get married, and all the princes and princesses were dressed in filial piety for 27 days. ”

My uncle and aunt have always been in good health, except for the occasional head wind, I have never heard of any other diseases, how can I suddenly have a serious illness and die without treatment? I sneered, lowered my head, bit my trembling teeth up and down, and knelt there, my body was as stiff as a stubborn stone.

Under a royal order, everyone knelt on the ground to mourn for Queen Kangding, and the deep and mournful sound of bells and drums rang, and the buzzing sobs turned into mourning and mourning.

They weren't necessarily crying for their queen, they were probably crying for themselves.

Thousands of people were buried with them, and these kneeling palace people may be on the list, and some of them were only eleven or twelve years old, and they had to be buried a few days after entering the palace.

According to Xiqiu's funeral system, the mourners were to enter the tomb under the guard of the mourners, and then lie on the wooden beds in the mausoleum, and commit suicide by taking poison.

A thousand palace slaves buried her, is this all a king to a queen? Oh, no, and that great pile of cold gold and silver beads, and that incomparable honorable name.

She was his wife, the original wife, and the first woman to accompany him. She was dignified, virtuous and gentle, and when she was young, she was not a stunning beauty? Or complained that she had never conceived an heir in her life, and after he inherited the throne, although she was crowned queen, she was just guarding a seat that everyone looked up to, and her life was more lonely and bleak than before.

Now that she had died suddenly, she had received so much that she had nothing to do with her, and she had not received a single tear from him.

I still vividly remember the scene when my uncle Wang handed me over to her to raise and take care of, and her joyful and weeping expression puzzled me as a young child, and she held me tightly in her arms, as if she were holding a treasure, for fear that if I was not careful, someone would rob me. She had always been quiet and indifferent, and rarely rejoiced or grieved about anything, and that was the happiest I have ever seen her ever remembered.

Thinking about it this way, I suddenly felt that she was in love with me, but I first conceived the heart of sending people under the fence, and I was just suffocating myself everywhere.

The priest in the palace rang the dull bell and drum, and someone shouted an order: "The time of Shen is approaching, everyone immediately retreats outside the gate of Jingshou Palace, and after the ceremony is finished, they will go to the funeral palace to mourn." ”

Everyone retreated, and I looked at the weeping palace people, and my heart was full of pain.
