The vision is a little blurry.

Those palace attendants are all full of shadows, and they don't really see it.

Yun Yao clenched the cold tortoise shell in her hand and said a word with difficulty: "Water." ”

Her head was buzzing, as if there were many people talking in her ear, including her father, mother, grandmother...... She saw "herself" crying on a couch covered with brocade, and her makeup was a mess; A dignified woman glanced at her coldly and ordered, "Lu Yuan, put on a wedding dress for her." Then a woman with a beautiful face hugged her wedding gown and hesitantly called Ah Yan. But she clearly saw that "herself" was crying even more.

Ah Yan, who is Ah Yan?

Her headache was even worse, as if there was a thin needle pricking it in her mind.

The cold water slid down her throat, dispelling her thirst and fatigue for a while, and someone beside her whispered, "The queen is sick." ”

She moved her lips slightly, trying to say something, but her throat was so dry and hoarse that she couldn't even say a word.

The chamberlain served her with water, and then laid down his bedchamber to darken her surroundings. She closed her eyes and tried to sleep, but in the haze she saw a little girl sitting on the edge of her couch, looking at her with dark eyes.

The little girl was only thirteen or fourteen years old at most, and her face had not yet grown, and she looked blue. Astringent and immature.

But the appearance of that little girl is exactly the same as the "Ah Yan" she just saw.

Yun Yao struggled to get up, but her whole body was soft, and it was a little difficult to even move her fingers.

On the contrary, it was the little girl, tilting her head to look at her, and asked curiously, "Are you here to replace me?" ”

Yun Yao used all her strength before she asked a few words vaguely: "You...... Who is it? ”

"I'm Zhang Yan." The man was serious, and his immature little face was full of expressions of relief, "I just learned a method of conjuring spirits from Chu Di, and you came here." Have you been summoned by me to take my place? ”

Yun Yao was stunned: "You ......"

The little girl in front of her, who claims to be the queen Zhang Yan, is still a little green in her words and deeds. Astringent and immature, there are still some crisp children's voices in the voice. But even so, she sat upright, with a straight back, her hands folded in front of her, and her demeanor was not bad at all.

Just now she said, is she Zhang Yan?

The queen Zhang Yan, who married at the age of eleven, was widowed at the age of fifteen, and was trapped in the North Palace all her life and finally died depressed?

And what else does she say? ...... "Conjuring"? ……

Yun Yao moved her lips slightly, as if she wanted to ask something, but Zhang Yan didn't give her any chance to speak. She clapped her hands lightly, tilted her head and smiled, "Since someone is here for me, then I don't have to be trapped here and suffer." The Queen Mother always forbade me to leave the palace, and my mother always forbade me to leave the palace...... Hey, do you understand? You have taken my place, and you will never be able to leave again! ”

After that, Zhang Yan tilted her head and glanced at her, smiled lightly, and left without looking back.

Yun Yao wanted to stop her, but her throat was so thirsty that she couldn't make any sound at all.

Her vision became even more blurred, and she saw many "selves" appear in front of her: herself who was married, herself who was sealed, herself who cried, herself who was angrily reprimanded by Empress Lu, herself who was hugged by her mother Princess Lu Yuan and cried, who was at a loss in the splendid palace, and finally hit the doorpost and cried......

No, no, that's not herself, that's the queen Zhang Yan of the past.

In the end, Zhang Yan couldn't stand the life in the palace, so she used a method of conjuring spirits to recruit a soul to replace her.

And Yun Yao is the soul who was recruited by Zhang Yan.

The old memories and experiences were replayed over and over again in Yun Yao's mind, like an old and dim old movie.

Yun Yao's mind was groggy, and her voice became extremely hoarse. I wanted to shout, but I couldn't.

The two senses of cold and heat alternate in the body, and all the shadows in front of me are people.

She saw that there were palace attendants, queen mothers, princesses, and even a young man in a dark crown robe. But the young man was pale, looked a little weak, and had a sickly face.

She didn't know if it was reality or illusory.

Because in a fever of forty degrees, she can no longer distinguish between reality and illusion.

From time to time, she would see Zhang Yan crying in her wedding robe, and she could also see Empress Lu coldly scanning her lower abdomen to find out if she was pregnant; She also occasionally hears a song, a song of the conjuring spirits of Chudi, melodious and peaceful.

In addition, there are also the voices of the imperial doctors in front of the sickbed, the rebuke of Empress Lu, and the begging for mercy of the palace attendants......

In these illusory situations, she didn't know what was real and what was false.

Only a piece of cold tortoise shell is the real thing.

The cold tortoiseshell was being held in the palm of her hand, and the surface was full of cracked patterns.

She didn't know why she was here, but most of it had something to do with the tortoiseshell.

Extremely cold, extremely hot.

Eventually, she felt a cold handkerchief on her forehead, and someone pinched her nose and poured the cold, bitter concoctions. At this time, she felt that she was still in the world.

The high fever slowly subsided, and her sanity slowly began to come to her senses.

When I opened my eyes again, there was no longer the little girl who called herself Zhang Yan by the couch.

A young courtier sat on the edge of the couch and fed her spoonful of water.

In her hand, there was an ancient, cold tortoise shell.

She opened her mouth slightly, and asked in a hoarse voice, "How long have I been asleep?" ”

The palace attendant fed her and replied, "You have been sleeping for two months. ”

"Hmm." She replied vaguely, pinching the tortoise shell in the palm of her hand and hiding her hand under the quilt. The palace attendant didn't seem to see her hand, or did, but he didn't care. After feeding the water, the palace attendant tucked the quilt for her, and said softly: "The queen should take a break, and in a few moments, the queen mother will come." ”

The queen mother in the mouth of the palace attendant is naturally Empress Lu.

She didn't know how she knew this, but it seemed that as soon as she woke up, she knew it clearly.

Now that I think about it, it's probably because Zhang Yan left some memories for her before she left.

She coughed lowly, a hint of rust spreading in her mouth. She secretly thought that she was coughing up blood, but the palace attendant still had a strange expression, took a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth for her, and said softly: "The queen doesn't hold on to herself too tightly, the queen mother asked you to take in that child, and you can follow her a little." ”

She asked in a hoarse voice, "Child?" ”

The palace attendant looked at no one around, and then leaned down/leaned over and said to her: "Your Majesty also acquiesced in this matter, so you should take pity on that motherless child." A few days ago, the Queen Mother had already given the child's biological mother to death, you ......" The palace attendant bit her lower lip, as if she had made a lot of determination, and whispered to her, "You are the child's biological mother." His majesty has already given the child a name, called 'Gong'. ”

Gong, Liu Gong, the son of Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty Liu Ying, his biological mother is unknown, and he was forcibly given to Empress Zhang to raise by Empress Lu.

She knew about this history, but she didn't expect that she would experience it herself.

Yun Yao supported her body with her elbows, but somehow she was a little shaky when she saw a flower in front of her. The palace attendant hurriedly helped her and patted her on the back. She looked down at her hands, petite, immature, at most thirteen or fourteen years old, and actually had a child?

She remembered that in history, it was precisely because Empress Zhang was young and unable to have children that Empress Lu chose one of the children of Emperor Ying of Han, gave her a dead mother, and then stuffed the child to Empress Zhang to raise. Later, that child directly hated Queen Zhang.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

She coughed twice with difficulty, remembering this once known history, and her eyes darkened.

The real queen Zhang Yan left and left her a mess.

Regardless of Empress Lu's move to leave her mother and son, just talking about Zhang Yan herself is a veritable tragedy.

After the death of Emperor Ying and Empress Lu, Empress Zhang stayed in the North Palace, and was lonely and miserable, and was finally buried with Emperor Ying.

Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan, you are really ......

Yun Yao smiled bitterly twice, holding the tortoise shell in her hand, and felt a faint chill in her heart.

At this time, the palace attendant also saw the tortoise shell in her hand, and couldn't help but sigh softly: "This is ......"

Yun Yao quietly held the tortoise shell in front of her and asked, "Have you ever seen this before?" ”

The palace attendant shook his head and said, "The maid has never seen it before. ”

The implication is that this thing followed Yun Yao to the Western Han Dynasty, and there was no such thing on the real queen Zhang Yan.

Yun Yao sighed lightly and gathered the tortoise shell into the palm of her hand. The tortoise shell was green and shiny, and the cracked patterns on the surface faintly turned into some strange traces. She didn't delve into the traces, after all, the future is long.

She looked sideways at the palace attendant and asked in a hoarse voice, "Do you remember why I fell ill?" ”

The palace attendant patted her back and said softly: "You were first angry with the Queen Mother, then with Your Majesty, and finally you didn't pay attention, slipped on the stone steps, and the back of your head hit the bluestone slab. If it weren't for His Majesty's side at the time—"

She suddenly stopped talking, and said softly: "Now that the queen is fine, let's just do it together." ”

Yun Yao nodded slightly.

It was probably Empress Lu who forcibly stuffed her with a child, which made Zhang Yan feel unhappy, so she thought about leaving.

But Zhang Yan walked chicly, but what she left for herself was a big mess......

The palace attendant cautiously glanced at her expression, and said softly: "Forgive the slave and maid for being blunt, you have always been unwilling to sleep, and the queen mother has some complaints." In addition, His Majesty is very sick these days, and the imperial doctor said that His Majesty's days are running out, so the Queen Mother doesn't care about it, and wants to leave a concubine for His Majesty. Queen, think more about the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will not harm you. ”

Yun Yao turned her head slightly, just in time to see a trace of unbearability in the palace attendant's eyes.

This palace attendant is Empress Lu's person?
