Han Ling thought that she would never come to the capital again in her life, but she didn't think that time would pass, but under such circumstances, she returned to this place that she hated in such an embarrassing capacity.

In the capital in September, the autumn is high and cool, there are no clouds, the south wind is rising, the withered leaves are flying, a large piece of osmanthus is blooming on both sides of the street, ten miles are fragrant, it looks so lively.

Since Emperor Chengzu moved the capital from Jinling to Shengjing, it has gradually gathered the aristocratic and royal atmosphere, and it is prosperous in the eyes.

She once felt that no matter how prosperous this place was, it couldn't compare to the smoke and rain of Hangzhou Mansion, and the mountains and rivers were empty, so she really felt at home there.

And now, whether it is the capital or the Hangzhou Mansion, to her, it is familiar and distant, and goodbye is like a world away.

She has been to many places in her life, when she was a child in the capital, when she was young in Fengyang Mansion, and then married King Jing and moved to Hangzhou, the eight years of life in Hangzhou Mansion can also be described as happy and peaceful, the years are quiet, King Jing treats her like a newlywed vow like never abandoned, she once thought that she could marry a man like Zhu Chengyun, this life is finally worth it.

But now everything has changed, she is no longer Princess Jing, and she no longer dares to use her former maiden name, Han Ying-jeou, she came to the old capital as the princess of the enemy country, and she has cut off the relationship with the former person and the former self.

But then again, how many of those people and things are nostalgic, the closest people have left, and the most trusted people have betrayed.

She's alone now.

"Ah Ling, this is the imperial capital of Da Yu, you see, from here, we are not far from the imperial palace of your homeland. The new emperor has arranged a place for us to live, and you have been working hard with me for a few days, so it's time to take a good rest. ”

Suddenly, a mellow and melodious voice sounded softly in her ears, interrupting Han Ling's thoughts suddenly, she raised her head faintly, and reluctantly glanced at an abandoned mansion that emerged from the alley of Zhenwu Temple not far away.

Yes, the carriage has entered the official road, and the city gate of Xicheng District stands majestically, which is clearly visible, and they are getting closer and closer to the palace, however, when they saw the mansion that used to have the plaque of Guangning Bofu, Han Ling's heart still hurt slightly, and he hesitated a little.

"Ah Ling, are you homesick? I have heard that you were born in Guangning Bofu, and this is your real mother's home, and now that you have come here, it is better to ......" The man's voice was still so gentle, for fear that if he said something wrong, it would cause her displeasure, and his eyes would shine on her all day long. Because he is of different races, his pronunciation is a little stiff, but it does not affect the smooth and beautiful timbre.

Han Ling retracted his gaze and looked at him slowly, this man had a beautiful silhouette, his face was not ordinarily handsome, his eyes were watery, he was bewitching, cold and soft, if he hadn't been with him day and night for the past two years, she would almost not believe that this kind of gentle eyes would appear in his eyes.

She met him on the battlefield, and at that time he was like a hell of Shura, riding on a tall horse, commanding the 50,000 soldiers and horses like a vicious wolf and tiger to devour her 50,000 soldiers defending the city, and she became his prisoner, and even later became his favorite or his plaything.

Although he has cared for and doted on her in the past two years, after all, it is not my race, Han Ling still looked at him with a little hostility, if it wasn't for the truth to ask, she might choose to commit suicide and martyrdom on the day she became his captive, in order to be completely chaste.

In fact, she had done the same, and the man stopped her and told her a piece of news that she still didn't want to believe.

He said that one of the biggest reasons why she would lose to him in that battle was because her maidservant Jiao Wanting revealed her battle plan to him, and the reason why Jiao Wanting dared to do so was because of the acquiescence of her husband.

Because of that battle, it was an agreement between him and her husband Zhu Chengyun, a cooperation agreement reached with her as a transaction, the purpose of which was to use his strength to help Zhu Chengyun ascend to the throne.

She and Zhu Chengyun have been husband and wife for eight years, and with her understanding of Zhu Chengyun, she thinks that such a gentle and handsome humble gentleman has been seeking self-preservation all his life, and he is only willing to be an idle rich and noble prince, and he will never have such great ambitions.

However, two years later, she was exiled overseas to the country of the rising sun and was humiliated, and she was always looking forward to him to save her, but she was looking forward to the news that he had ascended the throne as emperor and established a new one.

It was this news that shattered the last bit of hope in her heart, she was so convinced that with the many years of relationship between their husband and wife, no matter whether she lived or died, he would not give up looking for her, let alone marry another woman.

Because they loved each other so much, they knew each other!

"Ah Ling, don't worry, this time I am the secret envoy, and the people here will not know me, nor will they know your true identity. The new emperor of Da Eye allows us to stay here for a few more days, if you are homesick, I will accompany you back to see, how about it? ”

The man's voice was still so soft, and even the heat that blew into her ear piercing was infinitely gentle.

Han Ling sneered in his heart: New Emperor, is it really him?

Her eyes were still empty, and her gaze passed over his shoulder, cast into the distance, and replied to him with only two words: "No." ”

A hint of gloom flashed in the man's eyes, and he finally sighed in a low sigh that was almost inaudible.

The carriage continued to enter the official road and stopped in front of the West City Gate, and the first assistant minister Yan Xiang came to greet them with royal etiquette, and they were soon arranged to live in the Xinli Palace of the Royal Outer Pavilion.

Being able to live in the Xinli Palace of the Royal Outer Pavilion, Han Ling knew how respectful and important the "new emperor" of Dawei should be to the envoys who came from the country of the rising sun.

When she wandered around the Xinli Pavilion, she heard many odes about praising the new emperor for his diligence and love for the people, and the same nursery rhymes she heard all the way through the streets of the east of the capital, they said that the new emperor was a benevolent king, and he made a lot of achievements in fighting against the Japanese when he was the king of Jing in Hangzhou, which was a battle two years ago, even after the defeat of the princess, King Jing still turned the tide in the end and repelled the enemy soldiers, and in the past two years, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas have not been harassed by pirates. And Guan Bai of the country of the rising sun is also willing to pay tribute to Da Yu and forever marry the good of Qin and Jin.

Yes, the first emperor was stunned, in order to seek immortality, he could not go to the court for ten years, the traitorous ministers in the court were in charge, and they formed a party to exclude dissidents and betray the country for glory, and many officials bribed most of the military rations on the border to Zai Fu Yanxiang, who was in power in the court, so that the soldiers in the north were hungry and tired, and the Mongol Tatars repeatedly violated the border, in addition, the emptiness of coastal defense also attracted those Asura soldiers from the country of the rising sun.

The Central Plains was not peaceful for decades during the reign of the first emperor, and now as soon as the new emperor ascends the throne, he ushered in a peaceful and prosperous era of peace and security for the country, and the people can live a stable life.

If she didn't know that he had made such a dirty deal with Toyotomi Takiichi of the Land of the Rising Sun, she would have believed that her husband would be a good emperor who was kind and loved the people, but unfortunately......

The day in Xinliguan passed quickly, the unitary time was close to dusk, the moonlight was like silver, dissolved and condensed on the clusters of golden autumn chrysanthemums in the courtyard, like that distant memory, hazy but unable to forget.

At this hour, Toyotomi Takiichi had entered the palace to see the new emperor, and she hadn't returned for a long time, she didn't know what kind of deal was being made between these two men, but it gave her a chance to take advantage of it.

On this day, she was not completely unfounded, from the mouths of those gossipy palace maids, she had heard some important information about the new queen, the virtuous woman who was said to be from a poor family but talented, and her intuition told her that the new queen must have a close connection with that woman.

She had to see the woman and ask her face to face, and she had to see him and ask him to make it clear!

This is also the purpose of her enduring humiliation and secretly living for two years, voluntarily committing herself to Toyotomi Taki and seeking this opportunity to return to the capital.

It is not difficult for her to enter the palace garden, she has learned martial arts from her grandfather, and she has learned the art of war strategy from Xu Shuxuan, the eldest young master of the Wei Mansion, that is, the art of disguise was also learned from that woman, so she can easily avoid Yu Linwei's inspection and follow a group of palace maids into the harem inner garden.
