"It was a long time ago, the emperor had just done the gift of tying his hair, and Nangong Jieyu had just arrived. ”

I was stunned - it had been so long ago.

When I listened to Shui Xiu before, I thought it was a recent event, but I didn't expect that one of them had just done the gift of tying his hair, and the other had just reached the brim, which was more than ten or twenty years ago.

I felt that this didn't seem to be an ordinary thing, after all, it involved the original three princes, Nangong Lizhu, and the mysterious protector mage, so I calmed down and asked, "What happened back then?"

Mama Wu said: "Back then, it was a spring, and the Emperor Taishang took the civil and military officials, as well as several princes, and several sons and daughters of the official family to go to the Juma River Valley for spring hunting. ”

My heart thumped.

Juma River Valley?

Spring hunting?

I seem to remember something.

Mama Wu didn't pay attention to the change in my expression, only tried her best to recall, probably it has really been so many years, those things at the beginning are already dusty past events for her, and then I want to recall, I want to spend some effort, I waited patiently, waiting for her to say slowly: "At that time, Nangong Jieyu, she was not married to the prince at that time," she said, she glanced at me: "In fact, at that time, she had a very good relationship with the emperor, that is, His Royal Highness the Third Prince at that time." ”

I nodded.

This, even now, is true.

Mama Wu said: "I was also accompanying at the time, but at that time, I was not the one who served the Third Highness, he had his own Mama and those little eunuchs by his side, but in fact, those people couldn't keep up at all, although the Third Highness was young, but he didn't let people follow, no one dared to go up." ”

“……”

"Only Miss Nangong has always been by his side, and the only thing that His Royal Highness does not exclude is her. ”

“……”

"I remember, it was noon, all the people had been hunting for a long time, and they were already very tired, and everyone returned to the station, but suddenly found that His Royal Highness and Miss Nangong had not returned. Later, I heard from a little eunuch who followed the Third Highness that it was the Third Highness who wanted to take Miss Nangong to play, to see the world, not to let people follow, and to get rid of all the people who secretly followed, so no one knew where they went. ”

“……”

"I remember that time, the first time the Emperor was angry, it was the fury of thunder, and he immediately dragged out a few little eunuchs who followed him and killed them, and then asked all the people to go out to look for them, and after looking for a long time, they didn't find anything, only on the grassland, far away from the camp, they found the horses of the Third Highness, which had been eaten by beasts that didn't know what they were, and their stomachs were hollowed out, and there were clothes on his body next to them, a few of which were torn, and they were still stained with blood. ”

“……”

"That time, it really scared people. ”

“……”

"Although the place where the spring hunt is carried out, the Praetorian Guards arrived first and cleaned up some of the fierce beasts over there, but the beasts on the grassland can't be controlled, and they run so far away, it's hard to say what they will encounter. ”

“……”

"That day, I searched for them in the middle of the night, and then finally found the two of them in a very hidden cave under the river valley. ”

I asked, "What about the two of them?"

"Covered in blood," Mama Wu frowned slightly when she said: "Although I wasn't in that place at the time, the little eunuch who listened to it came up and said that His Royal Highness had a lot of injuries on his body, and his clothes were dyed red, but Miss Nangong, she was even more miserable, a very deep wound on her wrist, I don't know what beast bit it, and she shed a lot of blood." ”

"And then?"

Later, those people rescued them, and after the imperial doctor's consultation, His Royal Highness woke up, only to know that they had encountered wolves, and the wolves had eaten his horses and scratched them, and he and Miss Nangong fought hard to escape to the river, and followed the river to the bottom of the valley, and finally avoided the wolves. ”

"He's awake, what about Nangong Lizhu?"

"Although Her Royal Highness was injured, she woke up quickly, but Miss Nangong shed too much blood, and everyone was cold, and the imperial doctor tried a lot of ways to save her, but she didn't die, she just fell asleep and didn't know anything. At that time, some people were worried that such a beautiful young lady would have to sleep for the rest of her life. ”

My heart sank slightly.

No matter how dirty I am with her now, but I think that at the beginning, she had just reached the end of the year, and she would follow the girl who ran around with the Third Highness who had only done the gift of tying her hair back then, she was also innocent and had an infinitely beautiful vision for the future, and she was still so beautiful, if she really fell asleep unconsciously like this, it would indeed make people feel sorry and feel distressed.

I said, "What about then? How did she wake up?"

Mama Wu said: "After that incident, of course, the spring hunt could not continue, and the emperor took all the people back to the palace. Along the way, His Royal Highness himself was still seriously injured, but he had been guarding Miss Nangong's bedside, not eating, drinking, or even sleeping, so he kept holding Miss Nangong's injured hand and guarding her like this. ”

“……”

"After returning to the palace, if it weren't for Huang, if it weren't for the reprimand of the queen at that time, saying that men and women would not kiss, he was afraid that he would always be with him. ”

“……”

But even so, he still stayed outside the queen's palace, and every time the palace maid and eunuch went out, he stopped and asked how Miss Nangong's condition was, but during that time, Miss Nangong never woke up, and the Emperor Taishang and Queen Yin were also very worried, so they let her stay in the queen's palace and be cared for by the imperial doctor every day. ”

“……”

Later, I really saw that His Royal Highness was too tired, and he fell asleep squatting at the gate of the Queen's Palace, and the Emperor Taishang mentioned that he wanted to take Miss Nangong out of the palace for treatment. ”

I immediately said, "The Protector Mage you went to?"

Mama Wu nodded: "Yes, I went to the Taimiao, and I specially invited the protector mage." ”

"Miss Nangong, that's okay?"

"yes. Mama Wu nodded and said, "That was the time, we really knew the person of the Protector, and before that, we had never seen him, and we rarely heard about him. ”

I nodded slightly, and when I looked down, the rice in my bowl was already cold.

Mama Wu also saw it, and hurriedly said: "Oh, it's cold, this can't be eaten, it hurts the stomach." ”

After speaking, she took it: "Girl, I'll go and change a box for you." ”

I didn't speak, just nodded slightly.

Mama Wu pushed the door and went out.

She left in such a hurry, and she didn't want me to continue asking, perhaps, she didn't know much, but I sat at the table, remembering the past she had just said, and my heart brightened for a while.

I remembered that back then, it was also in the Juma River Valley, but it was not the Emperor Taishang, but Pei Yuanhao specially laid down that bureau in the Juma River Valley in order to eradicate the power of Shen Taifu, and that time, I led the horse into the place where he and Nangong Lizhu quietly recalled the past, I vaguely remember that at that time, in the conversation between the two of them, they talked about the tribulation together, and now contact Mama Wu What she just said, it should be that time.

Speaking of which, they have also lived and died together.

In fact, if a qiē can go on smoothly, they should be able to get married smoothly, and live a life with their husbands and wives, whether Pei Yuanhao continues to be the prince, or the position of the prince in the future, or whether they force the palace to seize the heir and ascend the throne as the emperor as they did later, they should all be a pair of beautiful people made in heaven.

But they didn't expect it, probably because they themselves didn't expect that their life path would come to this point.

And after I sighed, I thought of the protector again.

Speaking of which, this person's ability is really not small.

Nangong Lizhu was so seriously injured that even the imperial doctor couldn't cure it, and he could be cured if he handed it over; and Miao Yan, who had suffered from soul loss for so long, had thought of any way, and she was also ignorant and unconscious, but after he prayed for blessing in the Taimiao, he began to cry and laugh, and now he can even call his mother unconsciously.

He's just amazing.

Such a powerful person, why has he been silent all the time, I have been in the palace for so many years, and I only knew about his existence on the spirit talisman that Pei Yuanhao begged for, and at other times, before that, I hadn't even heard of him.

Pei Yuanhao is now deliberately hiding his existence, and even targeting me.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help frowning.

Just then, there was a sound of footsteps outside.

I thought that if Su Su came back, or Mama Wu asked the people in the imperial dining room to bring hot food, I didn't care until the door was gently pushed open, and a handsome and emaciated figure appeared at the door, and I came back to my senses.

The emaciated, handsome face was full of surprise, his eyes were wide open, looking at me as if he couldn't believe it, standing outside the threshold and not moving, only holding on to the door frame: "Aunt Qing?"

It's Nian Shen!

By the way, Pei Yuanhao said before that it was going to be the New Year, let him relax, and ask someone to go to Jixian Hall to call him back, and also meet me, he is finally back!

I hurriedly got up: "Your Highness." ”

"Aunt Qing, it's really you!"

He ran in in ecstasy, rushed to me and looked at me, still with an expression of disbelief: "When they told me, I couldn't believe it, Aunt Qing, you really entered the palace?"

I smiled: "Yes, Aunt Qing still came in." ”

For some reason, it feels like going to prison.

Nian Shen didn't feel it, he still looked at me happily, and reached out to grab my sleeve: "It's great, it's really good, I can finally be reunited this year, and I can finally spend the New Year with Aunt Qing!"

I looked at him with a smile: "Hmm. Aunt Qing is also very happy about this. ”
