I once told Su Lan that the reason why the world we live in is called chaotic is probably because the world is impermanent, fast and absurd. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoEverything you have or may not have thought about can happen in a blink of an eye.

When I was five years old, my father launched the famous "Yongjia Coup" d'état, and became the third-to-last king of the Zhou State from a concubine. The moment he killed my eldest uncle, Prince Zhaoming, the fate of everyone in this life was rewritten.

In other words, the whole situation in the world has been rewritten.

For me personally, this coup d'état was almost the beginning of my political life, which transformed me from a prince almost destined for mediocrity, to one of the masters of the palace, and then to a prince with real power, and finally to own the palace.

As far as the world is concerned, my father taught an important lesson to princes who are also from the same humble background as him, and for the first time showed the world that the struggle for the throne can be so fierce. He ruthlessly exposed the battles of the previous hundred years, which had been covered up in a high-sounding manner, and inspired the ambitious royal family, including me.

And she disappeared into that coup d'état, as if she had disappeared completely overnight, or she had never existed in this world at all, even for a moment.

And I miss her so much.

After becoming the emperor's father, my world became more and more blurred, and not only me, but all the children in the palace, including the eldest brother, seemed to be unable to stop his gaze.

My mother's situation has not really changed, and her loneliness has become even greater. She went from guarding a courtyard to guarding an empty palace. She went from a concubine to an inconspicuous nobleman in the palace, and the only way people remember her is through my eyes.

Not only my mother, but almost all the women in the harem of the Zhou Kingdom could not attract his attention, and when he was the prince, his father, who had a beautiful wife and concubine, suddenly lost interest in all this after mastering the supreme power.

Previously, the most favored was the eldest brother's mother. Although we lived in the same mansion, I had only seen her back from afar, but that back made me feel inexplicably familiar, like a peony in a garden. She's probably pretty beautiful.

And my eldest brother and I also began a long and boring life in the study. When I tried to think back on this period of life, I suddenly realized that this period of time was surprisingly calm, as if it did not belong to me at all.

I was born in a turbulent time, and I brought it to a climax with my own hands. Since the age of ten, I never seemed to be able to sleep, and this turbulent era has given me passion and courage, but it has also given me an inescapable sense of anxiety and fear, which has faded as the years have passed, and the anxiety has increased.

My eldest brother and I don't seem to have any intuitive impressions of our childhood. I still remember when I was seventeen years old, when I first met her as a teenager, she asked me curiously what kind of childhood gave birth to me. At that time, she was still a woman with a bright smile and clear eyes. The hardships she will endure in this life seem to be far away, and they have not yet tainted her innocence.

I can't answer that question. However, if I had to find a so-called childhood, it would probably be these short five years.

All I can remember about these five years seems to be just one night.

In the six months since I entered the study, compared to the cowardly and weak boy before, I have not changed much, but my curiosity about the strange palace has given me inexplicable courage. In between heavy schoolwork, my eldest brother Situ Yanqing was mostly asleep, while I chose to explore in this palace secretly.

Mother Zhou, who was next to my mother, once said to me worriedly after accidentally bumping into me secretly opening the door of a courtyard: "Second prince, this palace is a place to eat people, and there are secrets in every corner, old slave, please don't be curious about this palace, let alone go anywhere." It's going to be a disaster for you and your mother. ”

However, when I was young, I always had the inexplicable courage to ignore her words and forget them in an instant.

There were many stars that night, and my mother's narrow courtyard made it impossible for me to see the beautiful sky, so I fled from this small courtyard again. That night, for the first time, I saw the star Beichen mentioned in the book, which was extremely bright in the night, so I chased it and ran away, my heart full of joy.

I don't know how far I've run, I don't know where I've gone, probably somewhere I haven't set foot before. Here I lost the shadow of Beichenxing, and there were only bamboos around me, emerald green and slender bamboos, too many to count.

There is no palace person here, and it is quiet and terrifying. If I go to such a place in the future, the first thing I will do is to draw the sword at my waist. At this moment, I have not yet learned the first essence of the palace, and there is no quiet here.

In the center of the bamboo forest, the eaves of the palace are faintly exposed, and the evening breeze blows, and a bell rings, so crisp, that the scene in front of me fascinates me. Most of my country is in the cold north, and bamboo is not easy to survive, let alone so abundant and lush.

The cobbled path winds its way into the depths of the bamboo forest. The closer the cornices, the more palace lights. In the dim place of the bamboo forest, there are small glazed palace lamps, and the glaze is painted with gorgeous patterns, even if we enjoy it at the Yuanxi Palace banquet, it is nothing more than that.

I became more and more curious, confused, as if I had fallen into a deep dream, and suddenly I didn't know where I was.

The glazed palace lamp seemed to be a kind of traction in the dark, tempting me to end up in a completely different world. And when I saw her in the light of the long street a few years later, I suddenly understood that all this was just the guidance of fate. If you are destined to meet that person, you will not be able to escape it.

A temple appeared in front of me, and a spicy aroma wafted through the air. I still can't find the right words to describe the beauty of this palace. Even if he was young, his eldest brother ascended to the world and built tall buildings all over the world, but he never reached this palace.

Even the air was quiet, and as far as I could see, there didn't seem to be a single palace person here. I stood there in a daze, and suddenly I heard a "bang", and the sound was particularly abrupt in the silence. Frightened, I hurriedly hid in the rockery, and then I heard my father's voice.

At first, I couldn't believe it was my father's voice. The mixture of extreme tenderness and the coldest cruelty made me shiver involuntarily, and I desperately covered my mouth, not daring to make any sound.

He seemed to be saying something, and no one answered. His voice was a little louder, and it came to my ears clearly, and he said, "He's already a dead man." ”

Then the voice grew louder, with a hint of anger, as in the tone of every time the father, with a smile on his face, ordered the execution of a servant who had offended him.

But there was still only his voice here. (To be continued.) )
