The princess is crazy.

This is the gossip that has been going on in the palace lately. According to the memories of the maids of the Lingxi Palace, after the girl came that day, for some reason, the queen lady did not step out of the door of the dormitory for more than two months, and she heard the mournful crying in the hall every night, like a ghostly ghost. At the behest of the regent, the guards guarded the palace and protected the princess.

In the past two months, all the affairs of the previous dynasty were controlled by the regent, and Yuwen Qiye used his thunderous means to eliminate the Xiao clan's henchmen and suppress the ambitions of the princes.

Because of the regent's previous family status, the Great Zhou Dynasty opened the precedent of appointing the protégés of the family to enter the court to discuss politics, and the court showed a new atmosphere. At the same time, the declining clan and the emperor expressed their dissatisfaction, and for a while the court was in turmoil, bluntly saying that the regent pretended to be the news of the madness of the crown princess, but in fact imprisoned me, thus playing with power, causing turmoil in the country headquarters and unrest.

The previous dynasty was in a uproar, I stayed in the Lingxi Palace every day and never stepped out of the palace gate, listening to everyone in the harem chewing gossip with great interest, so it was not lively, but the topic content was not as speculated in the previous dynasty, and more focused on my private relationship with Yuwen Qiye's children.

"I still remember the heart-rending scream of His Majesty from the dormitory after the girl left that day. I remember when I was a child in my hometown, there was a plane tree in the mountains, and it was rumored that there was a luan phoenix perched in the forest, no one had ever seen its appearance, and many people who hunted for a living loved to look for this rare spirit bird in the forest. One winter, when the snow covered the mountain, there was a sudden roar in the mountain, and the sound lingered in the night for a long time, and the people were terrified. The next morning, I heard from my grandmother that someone had captured Luan Feng, and that long cry was because the spirit bird had broken its wings by life. "Under the warm sun, an aunt who was newly dispatched to the Lingxi Palace on an errand sat in the corner of the wall, telling a long story to a group of small palace maids sitting around, "Your Majesty's cry that day was more heart-wrenching than the neighing of the birds, I have never been on an errand in the Lingxi Palace, I only know that Your Majesty and the prince were once a pair of immortal couples who were extremely loyal, which made countless people envious, why are they strangers today?"

A palace maid looked left and right and said timidly: "Auntie doesn't know anything...... On the night of the Xiao rebellion, the prince's counterinsurgency army came late, and His Majesty resisted with one person, watching the emperor, the emperor, the queen mother, the queen, and the princess...... One by one, they died overnight, and when the prince arrived, the fetus in His Majesty's womb was no longer safe...... The affairs of the family have always been impermanent, not to mention that the two people who are now sitting on the top seat will also have disputes over who can sit more comfortably......"

"Hey, since ancient times, there has been constant competition between the royal heirs, and they have fought each other for the sake of the imperial brothers. What's more, they are two people who are not related by blood! In sincere feelings, I am afraid that they will also change their taste in the face of power. Now you look at that Alluring City, serving the palace every day, as if he has become a celebrity around the prince, the man really can't believe it! Another palace maid said indignantly.

My aunt smiled: "At a young age, it's too early to say whether you believe it or not. You haven't experienced where these words come from. I'm afraid that even His Majesty, who is the person concerned, does not dare to make a conclusion. Do you think I'm right, Your Majesty?"

My aunt had already noticed that I was standing on the side listening to them talk about me with a distracted face, and met my gaze straightly, showing a slight smile, without the slightest fear and timidity of other palace people towards me.

"Your Majesty, why did you come out?" The rest of the palace maids were startled at first, and then became overwhelmed, and surrounded them with all hands and feet. Loud greetings and inquiries buzzed in my ears as if they had burrowed into a bee's nest.

"You all go about your own work first, Your Majesty is here for me to serve. Seeing that I was cramped, my aunt waved away the noisy crowd with one hand, and stepped forward to support me, "Your Majesty, the sun is just right today, and the old slave will lead you around the garden." ”

I nodded slightly, looked up at the sky, and the harsh sunlight was shining into my eyes, making me dizzy.

"Why is Your Majesty crying?" My aunt took out a handkerchief and wiped it lightly on my face, seeing that I did not resist, she smiled faintly, "Maybe this sunshine is too dazzling." Your Majesty has been in the dormitory for so long, I am afraid that I will not be used to it when I come out. ”

I turned my head to look at her, my eyes fixed on her, it was clear that she was a newcomer who had been waiting by my side for a long time, but it felt inexplicably familiar to me.

"Your hometown is in Fengming Mountain?"

She was startled by my sudden inquiry, and then chuckled, "The princess remembers." ”

This "princess" seems to have been separated from me for several years, and I have not heard of it for a long time. Now there are only a few people who remember that I am a princess. Zhaoyuan is dead, and after 3,000 years, he has become a prisoner of madness.

"Master Jinghui, why are you here? "It's not a doubt, I said calmly, "Could it be that the sister-in-law in Chaolu Temple also thinks that you are slamming the door, and they have joined forces to change the host? ”

Hearing the ridicule in my words, Jinghui didn't care, only said: "I didn't come here because I was desperate to eat, if someone didn't beg me, I would rather stay in Fengming Mountain every day and eat my cabbage and radish." ”

"I'm afraid there is only one person in this world who can think of begging you. And the only one who can make you willing to leave Fengming Mountain is that person. Master, what should I call you now?Should I call you 'Hui Fei Niang'?" I slowly opened my mouth as I looked at her. When she said this, she and I both had expected expressions on our faces. It's just that after saying that, looking back on the past, I can't help but sigh that fate has already tied a dead knot in a critical place.

"There are no mothers in the palace now. There are 3,000 beauties in the harem, but the title of 'Concubine Hui' has never appeared in the royal jade. The princess still calls me master better, or, like Jiu'er, she can call me 'mother'. ”

There was a warmth in her voice that I hadn't experienced in a long time. The word "mother" came out of her mouth, breaking through my mind surrounded by mist, and a warm current rushed through, making me silent in place, and suddenly laughing.

"Your madness seems to be healing, and I have been worried about it since I came. I suspect you're faking your illness and doing this to gain sympathy. Little princess, do you want to go back to Fengming Mountain with me?"

Fengming Mountain...... My thoughts drifted off with her words. It was a place where I dreamed day and night, where snow covered the vast land, where I could not see a trace of filth, where the clouds could not hide the stars. I think of the carefree years in the mountains, I and Zhizhi spent all day napping in front of the Buddhist shrine, sneaking out of the temple with the star slave at night to look for shooting stars, and when I dream back at midnight, there will always be a gentle sound of the flute in the white moonlight outside the window, and when I fall asleep again, I will go back to my youth, when I didn't have everything, and I was never afraid of losing everything.

"Yes. But I can't. I said, "Stay here, I still have a lot to do." I'm waiting for someone, and once I made him wait for me for a long time. Today, I'm waiting for him. ”

Jinghui smiled: "It turns out that you haven't solved it yet." ”

"The five aggregates and the six degrees are all false, how can I find out? I was originally a mortal guest, but now I am contaminated with sin, and I am afraid that I will not be able to go back even if I want to. Besides, I have no face to go back to face Xingnu and Zhizhi. ”

Jinghui nodded: "I understand what you mean." It may be three days, it may be three years, or it may be endless. He asked you, what do you still believe that makes you so stubborn?"

I smiled and asked her, "Master, don't you also believe in fate? I believe in fate, and I am destined to have him, so I can't escape, so I can only persevere to the end." ”

A gust of wind blew, and the leaves rustled. In early autumn, the trees begin to wither, and the dark green leaves climb up layers of withered yellow, as if another gust of wind blows, and they will all fall.

The summer subsided, and Chang'an was sunbathed in the autumn tigers, and the heat was hotter than before. I felt so unwell at night that I stroked my forehead and shivered at the scorching heat, and a wave of nausea in my stomach rushed up my throat, and I vomited all over the place. Thinking that it was heat stroke, I summoned people into the temple, and the cold musk emanating from the bedside in the dark dormitory made me feel a little refreshed.

"Your Majesty, this is a happy pulse!" The imperial doctor who came to check the pulse probed my wrist for a long time, smiled happily, and prepared to walk to the outer room as he spoke, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, God bless Da Zhou! Go and spread the word to the prince, Your Majesty has finally conceived a dragon heir for my Da Zhou......

Before the imperial doctor's words fell, he only heard a "hiss-" sound, like a poisonous snake crossing the border, and a stream of red blood gushed out from his carotid artery, splashed out, and stained my cheeks.

"Ahh

Everyone in the outer room rushed in when they heard the sound, led by King Gongyi and Yuwen Qiye. The Imperial Doctor collapsed in a pool of blood, as if he still had a breath left, and kept convulsing. I held the golden hairpin in one hand, trembling all over, and looked at everyone in horror.

"I ...... I...... I don't know anything...... You're all off...... You all want to kill me...... Get out, get out!" I clutched my head and shouted desperately, as if trying to get rid of something, and the room was filled with thick blood and nausea.

"Your Majesty, it's Uncle Huang, I!" King Gongyi stepped forward first, but saw that there were mottled blood stains around me, and he stopped hesitantly, "Your Majesty, what's the matter? What did the imperial doctor say to let you do this?"

"I don't know...... I don't know anything......"

Faced with countless pairs of questioning eyes, I was helpless for a while, and could only keep shaking my head. Suddenly, the bed on my side sank down, and then I fell into a warm embrace, raised my head, Qi Ye was hugging me, one hand gently took the golden hairpin I was holding, and blood flowed on his hand.

In front of everyone, he hugged me tightly and whispered in my ear, "It's okay, don't be afraid." I'm still here. ”
