The early sun is twilight, reflecting the deep palace. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info the mist in the forest, slowly receding in the middle of the lake. The birds shake off the night's laziness and spread their wings to soar in the blue sky. This summer morning is the most comfortable. In the imperial city of Kyoto at the eastern foothills, there are already many chariots and horses and sedan chair drivers.

The princes of the world, hearing the news of the death of the emperor of Donglu, rushed to mourn. At the same time, the new emperor was congratulated on his accession to the throne, and many small countries also took advantage of the opportunity. Test the national strength of the eastern foothills, and see if you want to attach to the direction. Shu also sent envoys, and it is expected to send another war letter to the eastern foothills.

Shu understood that the new emperor at this time in Donglu was just a three-year-old child. The government is not yet secure, so it is naturally the most suitable time to write a war letter. At this time, outside the State Guesthouse, the traffic was busy and extremely lively. The merchants, who were lined with shops, also took the opportunity to start their own business.

There are many more people in the teahouse and the green house pavilion than usual. Especially the shops of merchants such as Xirongla, Hurenla, and Bashula are the most lively. After all, the merchants of Kyoto have collected the world's treasures. This time the countries came to Beijing to congratulate him, but in fact, it brought business opportunities to Kyoto.

This day is the tenth day of the seventh month, and the new emperor of Kyoto, Chu Yunhong, handed down the holy decree. Princes from all over the world were invited to the palace to mourn the emperor and attend the banquet of the new emperor in the evening. So on this day, all the carriages and horses drove to the imperial city. They purchased what they thought were curiosities from the shops as congratulatory gifts.

At that time, a girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old walked in a gorgeous carriage. But seeing that she was light and graceful, she got out of the carriage, and then held the hand of a little maid. Hold up a small umbrella and stand by the red carpet in front of the main hall and look into the distance.

After more than 60 days and nights of worry, Haoxue finally waited for the news that Chu Yunhong was the emperor. It's just that the next order given to her by the King of Shu made her hesitate. It turned out that the king of Shu was unwilling to be defeated in the eastern foothills, so he took this opportunity to let Haoxue come to the eastern foothills.

Naturally, the task assigned to her by the King of Shu was to assassinate Chu Yunhong. In order not to arouse suspicion, I signed another war letter by the way. Originally, when she heard the news, Haoxue never agreed. It's just that the King of Shu took his father's life as a threat, and Haoxue had no choice but to agree.

Haoxue had heard before that the previous princess of the Hu clan and the princess of Chen Guo were all delusional about assassinating the emperor of Donglu. It will not succeed, but in the end, your own country will suffer first. For example, the Hu people were beaten back to the Mobei area. For example, Chen Guo was beaten and was no longer able to fight back.

So what about the Shu Kingdom, if he also poisoned Chu Yunhong, would the Shu Kingdom also be destroyed? Last time, the king of Shu poisoned Chu Junhao and buried Chu Junhao's life. So this time, will it be a repeat of the same mistakes? Haoxue's heart was a little scared.

Her palms were a little cold, and she stood for a long time before she lifted her steps. Walking up the steps with heavy steps, this time she came to Donglu, she was in the identity of "Lord of Shu". If he had seen him, would he still remember himself, and even if he did, he would still be able to say something.

"Miss Haoxue, the emperor said to let the girl wait in the side hall," At this time, Die'er was named the tea maid of the Zhengyang Palace, and she was also responsible for passing on a message or something. Today, when I heard that the lord of Shu County had arrived, I volunteered to come to greet him. I often hear that Haoxue is beautiful, and Butterfly wants to take a serious look.

Dressed in a cloudy silk shirt, holding a glass-colored scarf on the crook of his arm. A pair of embroidered shoes under the skirt make it look more and more small. A pair of eyes like water eyes, like a lake in spring. Die'er couldn't help sighing, there are really such girls in the world, just like the new green in spring.

A winding corridor surrounds a blue lake. A piece of Taihu Lake stone stands in the middle, and a small stream of water splatters from it. There are a few water lilies on the lake, and this palace is embellished, just like the people of the south of the Yangtze River. The fish swim back and forth, and they are very cute.

A cup of tea, floating in the air. Haoxue took a sip lightly, then nodded and said, "It's Biluochun made with snow water from the last year." The taste is really fresh and elegant, and it is extraordinary. "I didn't expect Miss Haoxue to be so knowledgeable!" Butterfly was amazed.

Hearing Die'er praise herself like this, Haoxue blushed for a while. Outside the window, birds chirped and fell on the branches and chirped. Shaking Haoxue's chaotic heart at this time, Die'er looked at Haoxue's look of looking out from time to time, and quipped: "The girl can't wait, she wants to see the emperor, right?" ”

After saying something, Haoxue lowered her head. She kept wrapping her fingers around her skirt. The shyness made Die'er also like it very much. She stepped forward and asked Haoxue, "How old is the girl this year?" Where is home? Who is in the family? When did you meet the emperor? ”

In Die'er's heart, I like this Haoxue because of the first time we met. However, Die'er knew in her heart that Haoxue would definitely be left in the palace. Even if she is not a queen, she is still a concubine. Then he will be ignored by Chu Yunhong, and Die'er must always understand a detail.

In other words, at this time, Die'er had already thrown herself into Wanning. If she wants to stay by Chu Yunhong's side, she must help Wanning. It is necessary to understand Haoxue, but Haoxue didn't answer any of her questions, but just said: "The little girl is fifteen years old this year, a native of Shu." ”

"I'm three years older than you, so you're my sister," Die'er laughed unconsciously after hearing this, "I heard that you are congratulating on behalf of the Shu Kingdom, what about your congratulatory gift?" Can I see this sister? Die'er did not shy away from this time, she was just a maid.

In fact, it is a congratulatory gift, but it is actually a little bit of Haoxue's own heart. She has been staying at the State Guesthouse for the past few days and has seen a forest of shops. There were many interesting things, and she followed her maid with her. I went to the shop owned by the Xijon people and bought some gadgets along the way.

"This is a winter coat I made earlier," said a clean white fox fur cloak in a nanmu box. Butterfly stepped forward to look, only to see the stitches fine. It can be seen that Haoxue's intentions are good, "It's just because the emperor is in a hurry, so I didn't bring it, I brought it this time." ”

Unfold to see this cape, the material is soft and warm. At the neckline, there is a lily-colored palace silk. There are a few smooth beads on it: "I just bought it yesterday, and it was a shop opened by a Xijon merchant." Haoxue saw that the beads in the shop were shiny, so she bought a few.

"You're really careful," Die'er praised unconsciously, and she admired Haoxue more and more. I also secretly envy in my heart, no matter how much I compare, I can't compare to Haoxue. At that time, Die'er was a little worried about her status, and sooner or later she would be replaced by Haoxue.

Just when she was annoyed by herself, she heard Haoxue ask, "When will the emperor come?" It's all going to be like this...... "What's the matter?" The girl really can't wait? I'm going to check it out! When Die'er said this, Haoxue's face was as red as the clouds in the sky.

"The emperor has arrived-" Wang Lianying's long announcement came, Die'er's heart was overjoyed, and she turned to Haoxue and said, "The emperor is here, girl, go quickly!" But when Haoxue gathered her temples and opened the door to greet her, Die'er was jealous for no reason.

The branches and leaves are thick, and the apricots are full of branches. The chirping of cicadas came from the eaves, and the midsummer season arrived. You can smell the fragrance of withered gardenias, and the broken jade that has withered to the ground. In the old days, I walked safely on the edge of midsummer, I didn't think about it, I didn't want to.

In the quiet warm pavilion, the fragrance of gardenia is smoked. Wan Ning leaned lazily on the soft couch, quietly listening to Wang Qibo's report to herself, about Chu Yunhong's affairs in Shu Kingdom. The sweet dream fragrance on the table is full of sweet aroma, which makes people feel refreshed.

"That Fu Haoxue has already entered the palace?" Wanning asked, half-closing her eyes. Earlier, Wan Ning had heard the name Fu Haoxue for a long time. I didn't expect to enter Kyoto. If it weren't for her wanting to find Chu Yunhong herself, it would be a fine work sent by the Shu Kingdom.

But I heard Wang Qibo say in a low voice: "The last time the emperor was attacked in Sangzhong, it was all the news leaked by Fu Haoxue. I don't know what the girl should do? "Let's let it go first," Wan Ning sighed, "In ten days' work, I'm going to be kicked out of the palace......"

"Weichen has an idea," Wang Qibo arched his hand and came to Wanning to come up with an idea, "Let's create chaos and pretend to be Fu Haoxue's hand." Then a girl came out to preside over the overall situation, and it happened to get rid of the Shu forces behind this Fu Haoxue. ”

Listening to what Wang Qibo said, Wan Ning snorted softly: "If it is said that it is to preside over the overall situation, the emperor should also stand up, what am I?" Didn't you see that Zuo Xiang was there, you were going to push me into the fire pit! "At this time, Wan Ning must not be allowed to make the slightest mistake.

There is a wind blowing outside the window, sending the fragrance of lotus flowers on the lotus pond. Wang Qibo lowered his head for a while, not knowing what to do. Who knew that Wanning thought carefully for a while before she spoke softly: "This method of yours is not an excuse." ”

Now Fu Haoxue has probably met Chu Yunhong. The Shu country she represents will inevitably have requirements for the eastern foothills. It is just right to use the trust between her and Chu Yunhong to make a change in the Donglu harem. At that time, it was only necessary to push all the guilt to Fu Haoxue.

"I'll be the victim," Wan Ning slowly got up and took a sip of tea. She thought to herself that she had Yuan Yibin by her side, even if she was hurt a little, she would have Yuan Yibin's help. At that time, not only will he not doubt himself, but he will also be hit hard by Shu.

At that time, the door curtain rang, and it was Xianyun who walked in. She whispered to Wan Ning, and Wan Ning nodded slightly: "You go tell Die'er and keep an eye on her carefully." In addition, he instructed He Jing to let her investigate the Xirong shop outside the palace. ”

Looking at the back of Xian Yun leaving, Wan Ning said to Wang Qibo: "The matter on our side has not been resolved, and there is trouble over there." I really can't leave the palace......" "The girl is the pillar of my eastern foothills, how can I leave easily? Wang Qibo said with a smile.

It turned out that after the extermination of Xirong, their people relied on some jewelry business to make a living. The mother and daughter of Xianyun and Qingluan in the palace are all descendants of the Xirong royal family, and their identities are only known to themselves, the emperor and Wang Lianying. If Chu Yunhong knew about it, he would definitely kill him.

Coincidentally, Fu Haoxue bought some white beads from the Xirong shop. The Xirong merchants are not worried, they are afraid that they are just afraid that Qingluan's identity will be revealed, and then they will be in trouble. Wan Ning is investigating, and by the way, she also wants to be careful with the mother and daughter.

"From this point of view, Fu Haoxue is also a potential danger," these words strengthened Wang Qibo's heart to use Fu Haoxue, "Since this is the case, then let's take action, the night is long and the dream is many, and I hope the girl will make a decision as soon as possible......"

The thunder roared, and the wind and clouds darkened. The lotus flowers on the pond also closed their petals. Even the croaking of frogs could not be heard. In an instant, the wind swept the sand. The summer rain soon came out of the clouds, and Parry crackled on the surface of the lake and on the leaves.

The red lanterns also swayed back and forth in the wind, extinguishing the lights and candles in an instant. There was darkness left, only the side hall was still full of tenderness. The red candle west window is full of honey. The faint fragrance of gardenia flowers is still remaining in the room, and the first encounter of the year can be vaguely recognized.

"Assassins, assassins, there are assassins—" Slim Cloud cried, through every corner of the room in the wind and rain. alarmed Chu Yunhong, who was softly speaking, and he sat up straight. hurriedly went out to see, and Haoxue also put a shirt on him.

Pushing the door and looking, the eaves of the corridor are brightly lit. At this time, the palace people also held lanterns, and the Imperial Forest Army also began to patrol back and forth. "Aunt Yan?" Chu Yunhong saw that under the lamp and candle not far away, Yan Wanning, who was dressed in blue, had already fallen in a pool of blood.

"Come on, come and pass on the imperial doctor!" Chu Yunhong's face was anxious, and Yuan Yibin came in a hurry at that time. Chu Yunhong instructed Yuan Yibin to take care of Wanning. He calmed down, turned to look at Wang Qibo who came over, and asked, "What's going on?" ”

Wang Qibo bowed his hand and said: "The last general is on patrol and hears Aunt Yan's call. Only then did I rush here, and Aunt Yan had already ...... By the time I chased him, the Assassin was gone, but I had scratched his arm—" He held out his hand, a bloody sword.

Looking at the endless dark night in the east, Chu Yunhong was silent for a while. It was just in the afternoon, and he ended the banquet early and rushed to the side hall to talk with Haoxue. It was raining heavily outside the clinker, and he had to stay for the time being, but this happened.

At this time, a small umbrella was held above his head, and Chu Yunhong turned his head, but it was Haoxue. But seeing the concern on her face made Chu Yunhong very moved. "You go back and rest early," Chu Yunhong said softly, "It's windy and raining here, so if you get sick, it's not easy to do." ”

But Haoxue had to stubbornly stay by Chu Yunhong's side, and the candle flame in the room was also blown out by the wind for a while. There was silence all around, and only the light of the torches could be seen. Chu Yunhong took a deep breath and said to Wang Qibo: "Let Xiao Yihan come over too, and you will strengthen the garrison together." ”

At this time, Chu Yunhong no longer had any sleepiness. He hurried to the warm pavilion, but saw that Yuan Yibin had already received the medicine box and was sitting at the table to write the prescription. "How is Aunt Yan?" In Chu Yunhong's heart, he was actually still very worried about Wanning.

"It's okay, it's just a skin injury," Yuan Yibin wrote the prescription, handed it to Xian Yun, and turned to Chu Yunhong, "The emperor can rest assured, Miss Yan has Weichen cooking." Hearing the news that Wan Ning was unhindered, Chu Yunhong's hanging heart finally let go.

Walking slowly to the soft couch, Chu Yunhong saw Wanning's pale face. He unconsciously remembered the first queen, who was also like this. It's a pity that she was murdered, and she was killed by this Yan Wanning. Thinking of this, he no longer had any good feelings for Wanning.

"She is the Aunt Yan that the emperor said?" Haoxue had heard Chu Yunhong talk about it first, and this Wanning was very capable. also recommended Chu Yunhong to be the prince, but he was vicious. "But in my opinion, she really suffered an injury for the emperor this time-"

"That assassin should have assassinated the emperor," Hao Xue guessed, "Unfortunately, he was caught up by Aunt Yan, which shows that Aunt Yan really cares for the emperor." That hatred, the emperor forgot about it......" The intimate Haoxue makes people feel very comfortable when she speaks.

Hearing Haoxue say this, Chu Yunhong's heart felt a lot better: "Then just this time, it can be regarded as repaying the debt of the first queen." The rain faded and the wind slowly stopped. At that time, how would Chu Yunhong know that the real wind and rain were still waiting for him.
