A star of morning light, penetrating the clouds, emitted a faint light. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info give the world a trace of warmth on a cold winter day. Occasionally, a cold wind blows, and in this ray of morning light, it gradually becomes softer. Under the eaves of the corridor at the cluster, two figures quietly walked towards the back door.

The horses neighed and their hooves raised. The two fast horses galloped away in a southeasterly direction like a galloping wind. The horse's hooves kicked up a slight amount of dust, which gradually disappeared in the thin mist. At this time, the moon was still hanging in the air, and at dawn, even the birds did not smell a word.

At that time, the morning light on the horizon slowly dimmed, and a cloud drifted in the sky. It just happened to be shrouded above the heads of the two of them, and Chu Yunhong turned around to look at the dark clouds. shouted at Haoxue behind him: "We have to hurry, otherwise it will snow!" ”

The Congtai of Shu is located in a low-lying and humid place. If it rains or snows, the roads will be even more muddy. So before the heavy snowstorm, at least find a place to stay. This time I want to go out and find an antidote for my father, and yesterday Haoxue had already planned the route.

At four o'clock in the morning, we set off from the back door, and then ran to the southeast of the mountain village. Haoxue said that Shanjiazhai is a high-level area. Moistened by the sun and rain all year round, the plants there are called "elixirs" by the locals, so you should go and see them no matter what.

The weather is cold, and from Congtai to Shanjiazhai, even fast horses have to walk for three days. It took six or seven days to go back and forth, but fortunately, Haoxue walked this path during the day. It can shorten the journey by two days, and it can avoid the interrogation of officers and soldiers, but the road is not easy to walk.

In fact, for Chu Yunhong, Haoxue has done enough. He wouldn't ask for anything more than to get the cure. At this time, facing the gloomy sky, the two waved their horsewhips and hurried through the forest. In the blink of an eye, I have arrived at an inn.

"People don't have to rest, this horse still rests," Chu Yunhong said while getting off the horse, and also took the reins of the horse for Haoxue and handed it to the shopkeeper. The store is not big, but it is clean and elegant. The two sat in the corner of the table, waiting for the food and drinks.

At this moment, a cold wind suddenly blew. Chu Yunhong raised his eyes and saw that the people who entered the door were several big men. They were dressed in coarse linen clothes, and one of them wore a gray cloak. But when he saw the gray cloak throw his sword on the table, he said to the shopkeeper, "Hurry up and drink!" Brothers, good on the road! ”

"Come on—wait, officer!" The shopkeeper let out a long reply, like a tune. The wine and food that was originally given to Chu Yunhong was given to this gray cloak at this time. He was not in a hurry, slowly sipping tea and observing this group of people carefully.

Through the window, Chu Yunhong could vaguely see a big car outside. There were a lot of straw piled up on the car, and some people even told the store to take good care of it, and not to catch the rain or snow. This group of people sat in the room and really scared Haoxue.

"Your Highness, they, what are they going to do?" Haoxue was nervous for a while, and her palms were covered with sweat. Even the title of "Your Highness" has not been changed. Chu Yunhong gently squeezed Haoxue's hand and whispered, "Don't be afraid, with me, my sister can eat with peace of mind." ”

At this time, the dark clouds outside gradually dispersed, revealing a clean blue sky. It's just only half a cup of tea, and the sky is actually falling snowflakes like cotton wool. The blue sky is reflected, but it is a winter beauty. After the meal came up, Chu Yunhong comforted Haoxue and said that it was important to eat quickly.

In the blink of an eye, twilight fell, and heavy snow was blowing. Chu Yunhong pushed open the window and saw a world of pink makeup and jade. Rooftops, chimneys, fields, roads, are all paved with snow-white marks. He said to himself: "I'm afraid it will take three or five days for this snow to melt ......."

Snowflakes are flying, light and translucent. It is like a delicate handwriting, arranged between Tang and Song poems. Clean, pure and elegant. Snow falls quietly at the end of the sky. Under the west window, Chu Yunhong had no time to enjoy such a beautiful scenery, he was thinking about the safety of his father.

A tightly knit brow, a heavy state of mind. Let Chu Yunhong pacing back and forth, this time it was easy to escape and look for an antidote. Where do you know, but the road is blocked by this heavy snow. He was very worried in his heart, one more day, and his father's life would be in danger.

The warm fragrance lingered, Chu Yunhong looked at the flying snowflakes, and was thinking about what to do. But by chance, I saw the carriage downstairs. It was yesterday, the gray cloak and the minions. But when they saw that they had explained a few words to each other, they left the inn.

What could be in the carriage, Chu Yunhong was puzzled for a while. He hurried downstairs to the backyard to check where the carriage was still parked. At this time, the group of people did not know where to go, just for Chu Yunhong to take a look. He gently lifted the straw from the carriage, but was taken aback.

Bags of grain, oil, firewood and rice, as well as dozens of bags of salt. They were all stacked on the wagon, thinking that the gray cloak had said that the carriage would not be contaminated with wind and snow, and it seemed that the grain must be theirs. It's just that what are they going to do, where did they get so much table salt?

"Childe, let's go!" Haoxue stood behind a pine tree, pointed behind her and whispered. Listening to Haoxue's anxious words, Chu Yunhong seemed to realize something. Hurried to the back of the pine trees. Sure enough, not long after, after the door opened, the group returned.

The gray cloak said: "Don't send it to the Liangzhou camp and hand it over to the general!" I'm going to report to the king!" The men obeyed, and then they drove the carriage and left through the back door. The gray cloak, and the other horse, galloped away.

Looking at the snow foam swept up by the horse's hooves, Chu Yunhong stood up from behind the pine tree, squinted his eyes and said to Haoxue: "You are right, the monarch of Shu is preparing grain and grass...... "How does the prince know?" Haoxue thought that it should be a passing merchant.

But seeing Chu Yunhong walk to the place where the carriage had stopped, he pointed to the ruts on the ground and said, "How can ordinary merchants carry such heavy goods?" The grain carriages of Shu are all specially made wheels - "Haoxue came up to see that the rut marks were thin stripes, like the wings of a bird."

Everyone in the world knows that Shu has always claimed to be a descendant of Xuanniao. The palace convoy is also based on this. Unexpectedly, such a small rut was seen by Chu Yunhong. Haoxue couldn't help but admire: "Childe is really a good eye!" Haoxue is served! ”

The sky was still gloomy, Chu Yunhong looked at the carriage in the distance, and couldn't help muttering: "I don't know how much grain and grass has been sent, there will be danger in the eastern foothills." "Why not, Chu Yunhong has been a hostage in Shu State. But they don't know anything, they can't do anything.

"Tomorrow morning, go to the mountain village!" Chu Yunhong was categorical, he knew that he couldn't wait any longer. Maybe the iron tools at this time are also being sent to Shu in a steady stream. Although an armistice agreement was signed, it was said to recuperate. In fact, Shu has been prepared for a long time.

After all, Shu is located in the south, and the snow will not be too much time. Shu has a vast land, and there are Baiyue, Qiang and other ethnic minorities as the backing, naturally it has strong troops and rich resources. It seems that Shu is already prepared for the war in the spring of next year.

Haoxue on the side saw that Chu Yunhong was so worried, and she couldn't persuade anything. I had to pat him lightly on the shoulder and comforted: "Don't worry, Childe, I will also help Childe's ......" Haoxue couldn't bear to see Chu Yunhong sad, so she secretly went home to listen to some relevant news.

For example, the poison of the ghost grass is some of what Haoxue found out from her father's study. She had passed the news to the King of Shu and hurt Chu Yunhong's father. Helping him this time can be regarded as making up for it. Snowflakes are falling slowly, dotting Haoxue's thoughts.

The sky was white, and a few strands of listless clouds drifted away. The occasional little sunlight, which is just out of sight, is immediately obscured by the clouds. After a while, there was a cold blow, and the leaves that were still struggling on the branches were still floating in the wind.

On the eaves of the long corridor is the distance that has been walked. It's just that Wan Ning at that time was still a maid in front of the palace. You can walk between it and Zhengyang Hall at will. The palace people respect her very much, after all, in the harem, in addition to the queen, it is Yan Wanning, the maid in front of the palace.

But now Wanning is a prisoner. She could even feel the mocking gazes cast by the palace people on the side of the road. It's like counting Wanning's sins, "You deserve it!" These two words fell into Wanning's ears, which made her very uncomfortable to hear.

The harem is a place of right and wrong, and on the surface, the palace people are submissive to themselves, the maids in front of the palace. However, there is always a small part that is not convinced by her. In fact, Wanning doesn't care, she only cares about how Jun Hao will look at her and deal with her.

When I looked up, the three big characters of "Zhengyang Palace" were in front of me. To make Wanning feel so far away, so strange. The thoughts that were close at hand became a little blurred at this moment. She shook her head slightly, only to feel the path in front of her spinning back and forth.

"Ah Ning!" Xiao Yihan, who was behind him, supported Wan Ning in time, otherwise Wan Ning would have almost fainted. Xianyun, who came later, was also taken aback when he saw it. was about to say something, but when he saw Wanning's pale face, he stopped talking in distress for a while.

Wan Ning grabbed Xiao Yihan's arm and reluctantly smiled slightly, "It's okay, Xiao Lang is too nervous......" she said, and tried to stand up straight. asked Xianyun to lead him into the inner hall, but Xianyun still gently supported Wanning, lest something go wrong.

When she stepped up the steps, Wanning's heart immediately became mixed. She could see many people standing around: Liang Yuzhen, Chu Yunzhao, Die'er...... Naturally, there is also the lofty Chu Junhao. The Emperor of the Eastern Foothills.

Come and see her jokes. Her heart was cold, when she was in power in the palace, those people were eager to pursue her every day. She suddenly understood what it meant to fall into a well. is like her cousin at the beginning, who simply looked down on her.

She smiled bitterly, then fell to her knees and shouted long live. She had already prepared in her heart, but just as she was thinking wildly, she heard Jun Hao say to Wanning: "You go, don't appear in Kyoto again in the future......"

There was a bit of bleakness in his words. It seems that he still has a thought about Wanning, so he had to say this. "The emperor is willing, forgive Ning'er?" This was something Wan Ning never expected, she waited for Jun Hao's punishment for her, and was even ready to die.

Who would have known that Jun Hao would let himself go. During the few days she spent in prison, she was surprised by the results she was waiting for. Xianyun on the side looked at Wanning so surprised, and unconsciously touched her arm lightly: "Don't thank the emperor yet?" You've saved a life......"

Xianyun's words made Wanning slowly come back to her senses. She still didn't believe it, Jun Hao was so willing to let herself go. She struggled to get up, then looked at Jun Hao again, and asked unconfidently, "The emperor is really, willing to let me go-"

"If you don't leave, I'll soon change my mind!" Jun Hao no longer looked at Wan Ning, he just wanted to leave a chance for Wan Ning. What's more, it has been a long time since the queen's death, as long as Wan Ning leaves the palace and no longer interferes in the affairs of the palace, then she can save her life.

"Ning'er wants to know, if I don't leave, will the emperor kill me?" This time, Wan Ning returned to the palace in order to clarify her identity, and then prove her existence to Jun Hao. She also wants to confirm whether she can survive in the palace.

It's snowing, and it's flying. Sprinkle the warmth and cold of the world, covering every corner of the world. The fire in the Zhengyang Hall is very strong, and the charcoal fire is constantly burning, exuding a reddish color. When Wan Ning quietly came to the hall, Jun Hao was reading at the desk.

Time seems to have stopped at this moment, and the warm spring seems to be coming. Wan Ning asked softly, "Can the emperor tell Ning Er what happened at noon?" She wanted to know the truth, so she knew where she was going.

"I gave you a way to live, and you didn't either?" Jun Hao picked up a pen and wrote, and said without raising his head, "When I married you to Xiao Yihan, I wanted you to stay away from the palace. You are unwilling, and now you want to find a way to die, are you really not afraid that I will give you death? ”

"Ning'er is thinking of the emperor, how can she be afraid?" Wan Ning stared at Jun Hao's lonely figure with big eyes, and said word by word. She could see clearly, and the brush in Jun Hao's hand paused. The ink remaining on the tip of the pen condenses at the tip and then drips silently onto the fold.

Sure enough, Jun Hao's heart was really thinking of himself. At that time, Wanning's heart was joyful. But she didn't know that Jun Hao gave her this way to live. It was exchanged for the life of Cheng Chunlin in the torture room. The murderer of the queen, Cheng Chunlin was just a scapegoat.

Because I care, because I miss. Jun Hao has never been able to do it, even in the face of Wanning's interference in the government, and in the face of the evidence of Zuo Xiang and the torture room. Jun Hao was still hesitant and difficult to start. However, Cheng Chunlin is a loyal servant: "The slave is willing to solve problems for the emperor." ”

When Jun Hao watched Cheng Chunlin die at his feet, he suddenly hated himself very much in his heart. Hate your own selfishness, hate yourself for not caring about the overall situation. Didn't you say yes, for the sake of your family, country and society, you won't think about your children's private affairs? Why do you always remember that woman, called Yan Wanning.

Afterwards, Wan Ning recalled this incident, and often told other palace people that she killed Cheng Chunlin. On the contrary, Xianyun didn't think so: "It must be Cheng Chunlin who betrayed the girl, and I feel ashamed in my heart, so I want to replace the girl......"

But he is the murderer, Cheng Chunlin is not a "betraying himself" at all. In Wan Ning's view, the words about Cheng Chunlin's "loyal death" are just a reason Jun Hao found, a word that can comfort him.

"I'm the emperor," Jun Hao slowly put away the brush, and then looked into graceful eyes. Those eyes are full of care for themselves. This time, he paved the way for Wanning. I hope Wanning can leave the palace and leave this place of right and wrong.

It's just that Wanning doesn't think so: "If the emperor really wants me to go, why bother Li Dai Taozhuang?" In this way, I can be innocent, and I can still stay in the palace to serve the emperor and be my maid in front of the palace! "She's already guessed Jun Hao's thoughts, hasn't she?

"I won't keep you anymore," Jun Hao thought that if he let go, Wan Ning would inevitably return to the palace. If she interferes in the government again, then Jun Hao will not be able to protect her. The first time was okay, the second time was okay. It's just that this third time, Jun Hao won't be making a bet.

"Why? The emperor only let Ning Er get married, but he didn't strip Ning Er of her position as the emperor! "Do you know why the first emperor didn't let Jun Yan be the emperor in the first place?" Jun Hao said slowly. Jun Yan is the prince's son-in-law, but he is only His Royal Highness King Liang.

Wanning knows this that the Queen Mother is a Xirong woman. The first emperor must not have wanted his relatives to interfere in politics, and at that moment, Wanning suddenly couldn't speak there. She understood what Jun Hao meant: "But the emperor, if Ning'er thinks about being alone, does she have to separate?" ”
