The way she looked at me was painfully unfamiliar.

I thought I wouldn't have this kind of love again.

I also thought that I would never feel sorry for her.

But I was wrong, wrong.

No matter how much I warned myself and deceived myself, I couldn't change the fact that I really let her into my heart.

In the face of her questioning, I didn't know how to explain it, so I could only remain silent.

The wolf left the room where she had been imprisoned and returned to Kwong Xiqing's dormitory, which is now mine.

Lying alone in this large royal couch, I couldn't sleep for a long time, and I easily fell asleep, but I didn't sleep very well.

I had a dream about the past.

"Little master, where are you? The water is cold, come back quickly! The boy anxiously circled back and forth.

I hid quietly in the tree and didn't make a sound.

- The young man's name is Wei Shu, and he is an attendant who grew up with me.

He searched around below like a headless fly, and I bent over with laughter, not paying attention to the soles of my feet, and almost fell.

The movement caused him to look up, and he immediately panicked, and said tremblingly: "Little master! Be careful! I'll take you down right away! ”

"I don't want to soak in that disgusting medicated bath! If you don't come down, you won't come down! You have the ability to come up~" I grimaced at him, and I climbed the trunk of the tree, making a gesture to continue climbing to a high place.

Who knew that before he raised his feet, he felt that his neck was tight, his body was light, and he taught people to catch the tree in the blink of an eye.

"Aunt Yun...... "Alas, I was caught, and I will be punished again in a while."

"Soak for an hour, and then copy the second volume of "Imperial Strategy" five times." The older woman straightened my collar and said with a blank face.

“…… Oh. Nodding resignedly, he was taken back to the medicine house that was specially used for medicinal baths.

――The woman's name is Wei Yun, and she is Aunt Yun who raised me.

I dare to tease Wei Shu, who is eight years older than me, but I dare not disobey Wei Yun in the slightest.

Before I was five years old, my name was Kuang Xixi, and I was the last hope of the Yongle Emperor Kuang Yunfei; After I was five years old, my name was Jiang Zhuo, and I was the only daughter of Jiang Qin, the general of Weiyuan Army.

Jiang Qin and his wife thought that I was abandoned at the door of their house, but in fact, my appearance was just a deliberately arranged scene; Even their deaths were Wei Yun's plan—unfortunately I didn't realize it until much later.

Now that I think about it, the heartfelt love for me by Jiang Qin and his wife, even if it has an empathetic effect on their own daughter, can be regarded as precious - at least before I met her, I always thought that there would be no one who loved me without reciprocating in this life.

When they were seven years old, that is, the second year after they were adopted by Jiang Qin and his wife, they died unexpectedly, and the people in the house were thin, and they fled and scattered, leaving only an old servant and a small servant.

After that, I was rightfully taken to the hometown of the old servant - Baiyun Valley.

At that time, Baiyun Valley was not a famous poison doctor's residence, and there were no disciples, only a few inconspicuous thatched houses and people living in seclusion.

The person at the head, Wei Yun, is the personal guard of my biological mother Kuang Xinqi, and he is also a saint of Xinglin.

When Emperor Yongjia Kuang Yunwei successfully seized the palace, he demoted my grandmother Kuang Yunfei to the king of Xu, and her daughters were almost clean, and in the end only my mother Kuang Xinqi was left.

My mother, who had been sick since childhood, sailed away shortly after I was born.

Since I was sensible, Aunt Yun told me: I am the only remaining bloodline of Emperor Yongle, and I am also the last hope for the restoration of orthodoxy.

My birth is destined by God and the unwilling wish of my ancestors, and the responsibility and meaning of my life is to regain the glory that belongs to me.

For this goal, I will do my best, even in the depths of my heart, I have always deeply resisted this qiē.

But I can't live up to Aunt Yun, who has worked hard and painstakingly to arrange contacts for contact, Wei Shu, who has forgotten to sleep and eat for me, and tried medicine for me, and I can't live up to the heavy oath made in front of the tablet of my ancestors every morning and night.

I can only live up to myself.

After the age of twelve, I left Baiyun Valley with my old servants and servants, returned to Guanlan City, bought a small courtyard, and while analyzing the situation in the court, I became familiar with Jiang Qin's old troops in the Weiyuan army.

It took two years, and the name of Jiang Zhuo, the daughter of Jiang Qin, has gradually become known to the middle and lower military attachés.

At the age of fourteen, I joined the Weiyuan Army.

In the name of the daughter of General Yunlu, the captain took good care of me; With hard work, I was promoted quickly, and it took me only three years to stand out from the army and be recommended by my commander to join the forbidden army.

Half a year later, I finally got the Praetorian Commander to notice me.

And my plan has finally taken the first step.

Earlier, I had seen the portrait of Kwong Xiqing - only when we were somewhat similar, but when we saw the real thing, we realized that it was so similar that if I wore the same clothes as her, and then dressed up a little, I am afraid that only those who are very close to us can distinguish it.

This would have been a reason for her jealousy of me, but it was also my chance to ascend to the top—when I was recommended by the Praetorian Commander to face the saint, I knew that this opportunity had come.

Obviously, the Commander of the Praetorian Guard wants me to be the emperor's stand-in, which is probably a secret that every emperor has tacitly assumed, and it is also a hole card to save his life, no one can refuse, and Kuang Xiqing is no exception.

She sat on the ground, looking at me with interest, asking some questions that were not salty or light, but she was always observing my reaction, and for a long time, she nodded slightly, and motioned for me to leave.

The next day, I officially became her personal guard.

I knew that she had affirmed my qualifications as her stand-in, and had intended to take me with her, to observe her every move, and to imitate her better, which was also a test and test for me - if I had any mistakes or abnormalities, she would get rid of me at any time.

So, it's a risky move.

However, unexpectedly, I only stayed by Kuang Xiqing's side for half a month, and then I taught the arrogant and domineering little overlord to be taken captive.

That's right, I can't help but say it, like a thief robbing a good family...... Taken captive.

In fact, when I first met, I was amazed by her, just as she was shocked when she saw me, but she never knew, and I didn't plan to sue her.

She was not as hateful as the rumors, but she was born with a pure and coquettish appearance, soft and weak, and I felt pity for her, and only when those eyes looked at her without the slightest emotion, did she feel as if she was being targeted by some fierce beast, and a chill was revealed from her bones.

"What's your name?" She asked nonchalantly, playing with a leather whip in her hand, circling around me for half a circle.

"Jiang Zhuo, the imperial guard, has seen His Royal Highness King Ling." Although my hands were hung up and I was left with only a thin white shirt on my body, I was extremely calm in my heart - the more I was in crisis, the more calm I became.

Looking at her posture, the pain of flesh and skin is inevitable, but it shouldn't kill me.

My body has been immersed in precious medicinal herbs since I was a child, and my recovery power is amazing, as long as the injury is not fatal, it will be fine.

"Do you know why this king wants to arrest you?" She whipped me in the chin and smiled maliciously.

"Forgive Jiang Zhuo for being blunt, I don't understand the deep meaning of His Highness." She was so close that I could see her long eyelashes and smell the sweetness of her—such a bad character, unexpectedly with a good smell.

"Because of your face...... Teach this king, I hate it tightly! Her eyes darkened for a moment, and the whip slammed into my shoulder.

There was a muffled sound of "popping", and I couldn't help frowning: Judging from this strength, there may be blood marks.

"Are you worthy of this face?" She sneered and whipped again.

――Does it sound like she's angry with me because I look like Kwong Xiqing?

Could it be that she hates Kuang Xiqing to the core?

If that's the case, it can be used.

Diverting my attention from my thoughts, ignoring the pain in my body, I closed my eyes and waited silently for her to finish.

At this time, I heard her suddenly choke and call "Imperial Sister", and waved the whip hand.

When I opened my eyes, I was confronted by her sweating profusely clutching her chest, panting for breath, and in a moment she fell to the ground and fell into a coma.

Watching her be carried back by the attendants who had rushed to hear the news, I closed my eyes again, calculating how much use she could have in my plans.

Unexpectedly, when I saw her again, it was like a different person.

Those clear eyes were as clean as the clear sky after the rain, and when they looked at me, they actually had a trace of guilt and unbearability—was this person really the King Ling who had whipped at me?

The series of events that happened after that taught me even more confusing things.

But I vaguely feel that this Ling Wang seems to be easier to control than the angry Kwong Xiqing, and perhaps her plan will have an unexpected effect on me.

With this idea, I did not refuse her temptation step by step, and even acquiesced to her getting closer little by little, but in the end, it became conniving at her to touch my bottom line again and again.

Unconsciously, he lost his armor and lost his heart.

When she was tormented and repeated, I didn't struggle.

What do you like about her?

-- Notoriety, unlearned, domineering and arrogant...... What's more, she's a woman, just like me.

But after getting along with her for a long time, I found that when I didn't speak, the corners of my eyes and eyebrows were always softly curved; When he is angry, his face is flushed and he grits his teeth; When you are sad, you will only hide in the corner and cry silently...... Innocent and naïve, like a child who does not understand the world.

When I was shy, I turned my face away and pretended not to care, but I couldn't help but look at me secretly; When happy, squinting and curling the corners of his mouth like a hungry cat; When expressing affection, a cautious but sincere and firm gaze...... With affection, teach people to soften unconsciously, and they can't give birth to half the idea of rejection.

I can't help but think: how nice it would be if she were the lord of the world?

But her temperament is unwilling after all.

No matter how much I delayed and resisted, the plan still went according to schedule, and the opportunity came unexpectedly.

As the commander of the secret guard beside the emperor, the dead soldiers trained by Yan Ke can be described as one in ten thousand.

It's just that the elite of the Jiazi generation has been consumed in the White Cloud Valley, and the rest is not to be worried.

Yi Liu was the nail I planted in Yan Ke's hands, and I easily deceived the tiger talisman and all the guards, feinted against the guards, created chaos, and took the opportunity to drop the bag between me and Kuang Xiqing, and at the same time controlled her personal palace attendant, and quietly replaced it with my person.

With my similar appearance to Kuang Xiqing, how can those palace guards and guards who are just waiting from afar and dare not raise their heads on weekdays be clearly distinguished?

Even if you notice the clues, how dare you squeak?

As for the former dynasty...... Oh, probably Kuang Xiqing would never have thought until she died that her most trusted emperor, Master Yunchong, would be my ally.

Or rather, I think I am an ally of the master behind me, Ling Wang Kuang Xihan, and I have been dreaming of becoming the emperor's mother-in-law and serving as the first assistant, right?

I wonder what kind of expression she will look like when she sees me?

The funny thing is that everyone thinks they are the winners, but they don't know that everyone loses badly...... Including me.

The great cause has been accomplished, what can we do to regain the world?

After knowing the truth, will she forgive me and accept me?

I do not know.

All I knew was that in the end, I had failed not only myself, but also her.
