"Sure enough, only the dead can keep the secret. Changsheng chuckled, looking like a messenger of death, "Then now I tell you, there are enough secrets hidden under this mountain of white bones to be able to subvert the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, princess, who do you say should pay for this?"

As soon as his words fell, a gust of wind suddenly blew around him, as if a tide was surging around, and the heavens and the earth began to shake. The dark night sky was lit up by cold light, and even the air suddenly became cold. I don't think I can forget the scene that appeared in front of me at this moment, rows of soldiers in black iron heavy armor stood still, surrounding this mountain layer by layer, and between heaven and earth were the murderous aura carried by iron armor and silver blades.

"The princess should know why the general doesn't want you to return to Chang'an. This should not have told you that the general has given up too many opportunities for your sake!"

My body shook suddenly, and I looked up at this row of soldiers and horses, and the chilling murderous aura was enough to shake the heavens and the earth. The appearance of immortality became strange in front of my eyes, and I didn't know how to deal with the secret that had been revealed in front of me, and I was afraid of the price I should pay.

"Princess, how much do you know about the general? After being a traitorous king, do you know how much past and mission he is carrying? My eldest brother follows the king of Jiaodong, and I know better than anyone what kind of person the prince is! The emperor has changed the historical documents and the mouth of the world, but he can't change the heart of our old ministers who swear allegiance to the king of Jiaodong! When the Bailu Palace changed, my eldest brother died tragically, and after his death, he was crushed by the will of the emperor himself. Fortunately, the town of the country was merciful, and entered the Yuwen Wuli Ancestral Hall with a wordless spirit card. After ending up like this, our family has no regrets! Following the general, I have no regrets!" Changsheng recalled the past and began to become excited.

Everyone is born with a heavy past. Qi Ye is, I am. Immortality too.

"I am like this, let alone the general? You knew the general back then, and the general was just a small Jin Wuwei in the palace when he was called 'Xiao Jiu'. Your father has already seen and privately investigated the true identity of this adopted son in the Yuwen Mansion. Fortunately, Zhen Guogong noticed it in time and sent Jiu Ye to Xiliang, only to exchange the death of 'Xiao Jiu' for the life of 'Yuwen Qiye'. Princess, you have been pampered since you were a child, and you can worry about your children's private affairs without worrying about food and clothing. But the general can't! Everyone only saw that General Jin Wu was invincible, but they never knew how he came to the altar of the god of war. Princess, the general stepped through the Blood Pool Corpse Mountain and walked through the Shura Purgatory before returning to Chang'an to meet you!"

Blood pool corpse mountain, Shura hell...... These heavy eight words hit my heart a little bit. What flashed to my mind was the time I saved him at the Thousand Lanterns Society, and his back was covered with scars. At the time, I only felt shocked, but now that I think about it, my nose is inexplicably sour. Every scar carries Qi Ye's deep affection and irresistible fate.

"Princess, I have told you this to-day, not to gain your sympathy. The Yuwen clan was in trouble, the identity of the general was exposed, and the change of imperial power in the Great Zhou Dynasty was turbulent...... If you don't have these, the general once said that you can put aside your hatred and protect the Great Zhou Dynasty with peace of mind, but now you can't! Princess, the general has sacrificed too much for you, can you make some concessions for him this time? Now that the arrow is on the string, you can't help but send it!"

I took two steps back, my expression becoming more and more dazed. I felt my body gradually cold, and I involuntarily began to shiver. I subconsciously clenched my fists, and the stinging pain in my nails embedded in the flesh made me sober up a little, and I gritted my teeth, and said, "Changsheng, I understand everything you say." Now I just want to say one thing, if you agree with it, don't stop me. If not, then I can only accept my fate. ”

Changsheng was stunned for a long time, and then spoke: "Princess, please speak." ”

I took out the Pixiu wrench from my arms, and the red threads around it were so intertwined that I couldn't distinguish the original lines. "Without me, Qi Ye would have died. A cold voice sounded, and every word was said extremely firmly, "Without Qi Ye, I would also die." ”

There was a sudden gust of wind in the sky, and the surroundings brightened a little, and then became gloomy again. Changsheng stared at me motionlessly, for a long time, smiled suddenly, and his eyes revealed a little relief: "In the past 20 years, the general really hasn't loved the wrong person. Princess, I'm being rude. ”

I watched as Changsheng knelt down in front of me, and the wolves behind him gradually subsided their howls. "The secrets you told me are now known only to you. After returning to Chang'an, no one remembered everything in the White Bone Mountain. Those who should pay for this have been gnawed by wolves, and their bones are gone. What do you think?" I said to Changsheng with a cold gaze on the dead bodies that had fallen to the ground around me.

Who knew that Changsheng smiled and replied: "Princess, there is no secret to you in the White Bone Mountain, walk along the road at the beginning, and you will be able to reach Chang'an Pass in a few days, and the Pixiu wrench you hold in your hand can keep you safe all the way." ”

There was a dangerous message between the lines of Changsheng's words, I faintly sensed the ominousness, and just wanted to speak, only to feel that Changsheng suddenly pounced on me, and my eyes were full of flowers, and my brain was blank. When he came back to his senses, he felt his waist loosen, and a cold light flashed, and the long sword of lightning and stone fire stabbed straight into Changsheng's abdomen.

"Changsheng!" I exclaimed, and Changsheng smiled brightly at me with his long sword in hand. He fell from the air like a broken piece of paper, and the second before he fell to the ground, I reached out to catch him, the hot blood wet my palms, and I was too scared to say a complete word as I watched his abdomen continue to gush out of the blood.

"Gong ...... Princess...... As a samurai, you can't betray your lord...... I betrayed myself...... You deserve to pay the price......" Changsheng looked at me with a pale face and comforted me.

I shook my head desperately: "No! No, I can pretend I don't know anything! You're not wrong, so you can't die...... Why are you so stupid!Cheer up, I'm ...... Let's go back to Chang'an together!Sijiu is still waiting for you......" Speaking of this, my tears burst out of my eyes, like a flood that opened the floodgates, engulfing and invading me in an instant.

"Forty-nine ......" Changsheng muttered the name, his pale face filled with infinite tenderness, "Princess...... Promise me not to tell Sijiu that I'm dead...... Let's just say that Changsheng went to a far, far away place, and if he can't come back, let him find another better person...... Princess, take good care of him for me......"

I hugged Changsheng, feeling his body temperature passing little by little, and I could only keep nodding: "I promise you...... Changsheng, I promise you......"

"Princess...... I really want to go back to Xiliang ......"

Changsheng's voice was as light as a feather on the ground, almost indistinguishable. I ran my hand over the tear stains on my cheeks, opened my mouth and hummed softly, "...... Lingshanwei, Lingshanwei, how much love is in the end of the world? Seeing geese flying south every day, I don't see the hearts of the deceased being broken. Lingshanwei, Lingshanwei, the annual cold star falls. Looking at last year's star in the north, who is the cold star this year......"

Surrounded by dark clouds, the terrible howls of wild wolves, surrounded by impregnable soldiers, I sat among the weeds full of dead corpses, looking at the night sky with immortality in my arms, and hummed nursery rhymes over and over again.

A day later, I buried my immortal life and got up to hurry alone, the sound of Dada's horse's hooves striking my heart, and the bumpy road could not stop me from returning like an arrow.

When I arrived in Chang'an, I was already disgraced. The dignified princess of the Zhou Dynasty fell into this kind of virtue is really detrimental to the face of the heavenly family, thinking that Pei Shisan is a distinguished guest on the national color Tianxiang seat, and I have the fish ornament token he gave me, it must not be difficult to get into the building to change into a decent clothes.

The situation in Chang'an is turbulent, and everyone is in danger. In just a few months, the crown prince was deposed, the prince was imprisoned, the eldest princess was reconciled, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the clan was suppressed...... Now that the Yuwen clan has been convicted, there is a faction of gossip in the folk square, and all kinds of rumors are boiling against the sky, I finally realized that everyone has the heart of gossip, and it is regardless of the identity of the occasion, only three or two crowds gather, a plate of melon seeds is an afternoon.

The national color Tianxiang is much better than I imagined, no matter how the situation outside the door is turbulent, how the people's hearts are panicked, stepping into the national color Tianxiang, only the silk bamboo warbler song, see only the feather coat and neon clothes.

"I'm afraid this girl is in the wrong place, this is not the place you should be. As soon as he stepped into the hall, a woman dressed in fancy clothes stepped forward and gave an eviction order, and her words were polite.

I patted the dirt on my body embarrassedly, took out the fish-shaped jade ornament from my sleeve, and said with a smile: "I am from Pei's mansion, and I have been like this for a few days." My concubine Niangniang summoned me to enter the palace at noon, I am afraid of losing my honor in front of the palace, I don't know if the girl can make it convenient, prepare a set of clean clothes for me, and I will be thanked again another day. ”

The woman looked at me suspiciously, her eyes fell on the token in my hand, and she was stunned for a moment, and then immediately grinned and showed a bright smile: "Blame me for being clumsy, I didn't see that you were Mrs. Pei's mansion, and you don't have to be surprised if you collided with Mrs. Pei Fushang." "With a wave of his hand," Xia Fan, quickly take Mrs. Pei to the back wing room to change into clean clothes. ”

The corners of my mouth twitched, and my eyes looked at the pair of fish ornaments in my hand tangledly, admiring that Thirteen was really open-minded. Under the affectionate gaze of everyone all the way, I was taken by a maid to the VIP room where I had come. The maid named "Xia Fan" brought me a set of red skirts and said: "Madam, most of the clothes of the girls in the building are not suitable for you, this set was once cut for the girls of the Allures, and the girls of the Allure City entered the palace and won the favor of the Emperor and now become the concubine, and no one wears this dress anymore." If the lady does not dislike it, she will replace it first. ”

I nodded and took it, and the maid got up and wanted to retreat, and when she closed the door, she seemed to remember something, and turned to me and said, "Madame will come out quickly after changing her clothes, it is inconvenient to walk between the wings, otherwise you should be careful of getting lost." ”
