Obviously, he fainted on the bed in the hall, why did he go outside the hall in a blink of an eye?

Mu Chen wanted to take a step back to the hall, but her feet seemed to be locked to the ground by a thousand-pound chain, and she couldn't move half a step.

She was confused about the current situation, but suddenly her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the temple door opening, and she couldn't help but look in which direction.

I saw a little boy carrying a burden and walking out of the hall lightly.

The little boy was very small, he looked to be eleven or two years old, and although he was dressed in burlap clothes, he could not hide the nobility of a royal child, and he should be a prince who wanted to escape.

Wait, this is the Prince's Palace, how could there be such a big fleeing prince for no reason?

Looking closely at the little boy's appearance and facial features, he was seven points similar to himself.

She instantly realized that what she was looking at now was not a little boy, but a little girl. That's who I was five years ago.

After Xiao Muchen walked out of the hall gate, he gently closed the door again, and when he turned to leave, he met Zhang Xuan.

There is not much difference between Zhang Xuan five years ago and now, but he doesn't have the mustache he has now.

"Prince, where are you going at this time?" Zhang Xuan's tone was respectful, and he asked as he pushed the door and invited the little prince back to the palace.

At this time, Mu Chen's feet seemed to be unlocked again, and she could move, and she followed the footsteps of Zhang Xuan and Xiao Mu Chen into the Prince's Palace.

Obviously, Zhang Xuan and Xiao Muchen couldn't see her, she realized that she should be out of her body and went back to five years ago.

Seeing that Xiao Muchen was carrying a burden, and he looked like he had stolen it, and then compared the time, she guessed that this time happened to be the time when Xiao Muchen and the second prince Xi made an appointment to elope? Could it be because he was trapped by Zhang Xuan, so he couldn't go?

Sure enough, as she expected, Xiao Muchen really wanted to go to the appointment, but Zhang Xuan didn't seem to have any intention of obstructing it.

He stood respectfully a few steps away from Xiao Muchen, and said calmly: "Prince, if you really want to leave the palace with the second prince and live a mortal life, Weichen will not object, but has the prince ever thought about the consequences?" ”

Xiao Muchen sat on the crown prince and lost his temper: "No, I just know that I like him and want to be with him." ”

"Then have you ever thought about your father? He has had high hopes for you since he was a child, and he named you the prince early, and he is very fond of you, do you not care about this family affection? ”

"I don't want the crown prince at all, and I don't have the ability to ask for it, no matter how hard I try, I always disappoint my father, why not just change a prince and let me go, so that everyone is complete." In the early years of love, it is inevitable that there is only love in her eyes, what family affection, what power, what is involuntarily, probably she doesn't understand it very well.

"Prince, Weichen knows, you ran away with the second prince this time, how many heirs are there in the emperor, the prince doesn't know, both of you have left, who else can the prince change?"

"There are many beauties in my father's palace, tell him not to always go to Concubine An's mother, find more other concubines to spread out, I don't believe that I can't give birth to a son."

Zhang Xuan sighed lightly: "Originally, these things shouldn't have been told to you, but now, you should know." ”

Zhang Xuan began to talk about the little secret of Emperor Yonghe.

It turned out that five years ago, Emperor Yonghe became ill because of overwork, and his heart, lungs and kidneys began to deteriorate, and he didn't know how long he could survive.

Bad kidneys will affect fertility, which is also the real reason why there are no newborn children in the harem in recent years, so in order to try not to make others suspicious, Emperor Yonghe began to favor Concubine An alone and rarely go to the bedrooms of other concubines.

Of course, Emperor Yonghe would choose Concubine An, and it was not entirely a pretense, and his feelings for her were indeed true, otherwise he would not have chosen her.

At this point, the situation is already obvious, if Mu Chen and the second prince Zixi leave, Emperor Yonghe will have no heirs to inherit the throne, even if he takes a step back, even if he is lucky enough to have another son, it will take time for this son to grow up, and his body will fall at any time, if he suddenly falls one day, without a decent son to support the overall situation, the Mu dynasty will definitely end.

After revealing the truth, Zhang Xuan once again persuaded bitterly: "Prince, Weichen knows that you are not attached to the position of the prince, and you don't want to ascend the throne as the emperor in the future, but if you don't leave, the second prince will stay, even if you give up the throne in the future, the Central Plains can be taken over by the second prince, and it will not fall into the hands of others." The second prince is a material that can be made, presumably the country is in charge of him, and the world will be peaceful. ”

Xiao Muchen listened quietly, and his expression became more and more gloomy.

Maybe it's because of the relationship between the same skin, Mu Chen seems to be able to sense Xiao Muchen's mood, contradictions, hesitation, struggles, all kinds of tastes come up, blocking his heart, it's very uncomfortable.

She should really like the second prince Zixi, but she was also shaken by Zhang Xuan's words.

After all, she went to the dock where she had met, but she didn't appear in front of him.

She hid behind a boulder from afar, looked at him from afar, and wept silently. She shouldn't want her father's country to be handed over, nor does she want the talent of the second prince Zixi to be buried, it seems that she is not a little girl who only cares about herself.

In the blink of an eye, Mu Chen returned to the Prince's Palace.

Time has changed, because Xiao Muchen has grown up, and his appearance is almost the same as now.

I saw a woman talking to her, and it seemed that she had already talked a lot.

Isn't that Concubine Hua? How did you come to the Prince's Palace? It's a rare guest.

"Prince, this tea is a tribute from Xilang Kingdom, try it quickly." Concubine Hua took the initiative to pour tea, and she drank it first, probably because she wanted to prove that the tea was not poisonous with her actions.

Mu Chen was still a little hesitant, so Concubine Hua chuckled again: "My emperor Xiaoxi said that this tea is delicious." ”

It seemed that when he heard the name of the second prince, Mu Chen's eyes moved slightly, and he slowly reached out to pick up the teacup and slowly brought it to his lips.

It was probably because Concubine Hua hadn't shown her sinister side at that time, so the simple Mu Chen would believe her lightly.

And Mu Chen, as a bystander, naturally knew Concubine Hua's scheming, so she wanted to rush up and shoot the teacup away, but she forgot that she was a wisp of soul, and patted it with one hand, but it was empty.

I watched my former self drink the cup of tea that seemed to be problematic and drank it all.

Sure enough, Mu Chen put her hand on her forehead, and seemed to be starting to get dizzy, and Concubine Hua kindly helped her to the bed to rest.

The moment she collapsed on the bed, she had already passed out.

"I'm sorry." Concubine Hua can still say sorry, it's really a joke, "If it weren't for my son, I wouldn't have done this, I can't watch him fight or grab anymore, he is unmotivated, I know that he is all for you, he will be depressed, only if you disappear forever, he can put aside a qiē and cheer up." ”

Mu Chen suddenly understood that her crossing a year ago was not a magpie's nest dove for no reason, but that she could not escape death, and it was only because of her crossing that she was reborn.

It was dark in front of me, and the wandering soul seemed to be pulled back somewhere.

The eyelids were weakly opened, and she only felt that there were fingers on her wrists, probably to check her pulse, and heard a voice beside her: "Imperial Doctor Zhang, what is going on with the prince?" How can you suddenly vomit blood and faint? ”

The anxious voice knew that it was Su Wuxian when he heard it.

Zhang Xuan's answer was also full of surprise: "How can this be? This poison will come to the prince, you ......"

He probably understood the reason for this, and then the two seemed to talk a lot back and forth, but Mu Chen's consciousness seemed to fall into darkness again, from not being able to hear what they were saying, to finally not hearing anything.

In the darkness, she thought, she must be dead, so that the soul can leave the body, travel through time, and see the past.

When she opened her eyes again, she saw a familiar face looking down at her worriedly.

She stretched out her hand to touch the handsome face in front of her, but then she thought that she was already an out-of-body soul, and even if she reached out, it would only touch the air, so she retracted her hand again.

Halfway down, I felt that my wrist was tight, as if I was being held by something.

There was a warm temperature coming from the wrist.

It's his hand.

He can hold his own hand.

"Innocent......" her voice blurted out.

"I'm here." Su Wuxian held her hand with a smile on his face, but that smile was a little sad.

"Am I not dead yet?" No one knows what will happen to this poison when it attacks, I don't know what the symptoms are when it attacks, I don't know how long it will last after the attack, I just know that it seems to be fine at the moment.

"Chen'er, you won't die, trust me." It's a declarative sentence, but why does it sound like a dying comfort?

Mu Chen smiled indifferently: "You tell me the truth, Zhang Xuan should have come to help me diagnose and treat, right?" What did he say? ”

Su Wuxian shook his head: "Imperial Physician Zhang said, this poison is very strange, when it comes to you, it seems to have changed, and it is different from when it was on me before." He also said that he did not know about this poison, only that it would make your heart and pulse turbulent, and the time and interval of the attacks were not yet known, and he was not sure if it would be stricter each time, in short, he would do his best to study the results and hope to make an antidote. ”

"So, I had a seizure once?"

Su Wuxian nodded: "Hmm." ”

She suddenly pressed Su Wuxie's big hand on her face, feeling the real, warm temperature.

If it was just such an attack, she thought she could bear it, but it was just a heartbreaking feeling for a while, and then vomit some blood, and then come out of her body to see some past she didn't know.

As long as she can finally wake up and really feel his temperature, she feels that the poison is nothing.

It's just that the most confusing thing is that I don't know which one is the real departure.

I hope that Zhang Xuan can really develop an antidote before her deadline.

As for what I saw when I was unconscious, it was very real, it should not be a dream, but a real past.

Mu Chen recalled those clear scenes one after another.

It turned out that she was drugged by Concubine Hua a year ago and died once, and since this incident has passed, no one knows that she has passed through rebirth, so she knows this matter herself, and it is not enough to mention it to others again.

But five years ago, at that time, she had missed the appointment with the second prince Zixi, although he didn't say it explicitly, but Mu Chen knew that this matter was a knot in his heart, and he thought that she broke the appointment because she couldn't give up the glory and wealth of the palace in the end, should she tell him the truth?

But he doesn't know that she is no longer the same person she was now, if he tells the truth, will he misunderstand that he still has no feelings for him?

Wouldn't that complicate things even more?

Forget it, let's not talk about it yet.

After hesitating for a long time, I decided to put all this in my head for the time being, and then consider whether to say it when the time is right.

"What are you thinking?" Su Wuxian took the freshly cooked medicinal soup and slowly walked to the bed.

"Didn't think about anything." She took the decoction and drank it in three or two sips.

"Don't think about men other than me." Su Wuxie's eyes narrowed slightly, staring straight at her, as if he wanted to see her soul.

When did he start to be sensitive to this? He seemed to know more and more about reading her mind.

Mu Chen suddenly laughed out loud: "Are you jealous again?" ”

He didn't even deny it: "The Central Plains statutes that men can't be jealous? ”

"I found that you are becoming more and more shameless, are you still poisoned yet, so your head is poisoned?"

"It's possible, but this poison will only attack when I see you." He sat on the edge of the bed and hugged her tightly in his arms, wanting to dissolve her into his body, "Chen'er, why don't you wait for you to detoxify, let's leave the palace, leave the court, and live in a place where no one knows, let me love you well for the rest of my life and compensate you well, okay?" ”

Her eyes sank slightly, and her thoughts turned a thousand times.

She didn't want to use the identity of a woman to be with him openly, but she couldn't leave irresponsibly, especially when she remembered that she was out of her body, and when she heard what Zhang Xuan said to Xiao Muchen five years ago, she couldn't bear to leave suddenly at this time.

Even if the second prince Zixi inherits the throne, she can't let go of the long-ill Emperor Yonghe. At the age of twelve, she still understood the word loyalty and filial piety, and now she has no reason to be inferior to before.

Besides, it is still unknown whether this poison can be cured, and now we can only choose to live one day at a time, how dare we think so long-term?

Thinking of this, she replied, "When this poison is solved, we will think about other things, shall we?" ”

Su Wuxian didn't deny it, he was a little disappointed when he heard this answer, but he only thought that Mu Chen was worried that the poison would not be solved, so he didn't continue the topic, but only replied vaguely: "Well, okay." ”

Mu Chen and Su Wuxie came and went too often, and the message reached the ears of Emperor Yonghe.

Emperor Yonghe couldn't help but think of the quarrel in the early years, although the choice of concubine was imminent, but in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, he temporarily decided to deploy Su Wuxian to the frontier to guard, and the return date was uncertain.

As soon as this news came out, Mu Chen was reluctant to do so, but thinking about it, if this could reassure Emperor Yonghe, then it would be as he wished, and it was okay for them to secretly use spiritual power to communicate, but this way of meeting was more secretive, and the feeling of sneakiness was even stronger.

For this reason, Mu Chen felt a little sorry for Su Wuxie.

The day of choosing a concubine is coming in a blink of an eye.

Because a year ago, when Yonghe Emperor Ti Na was concubine, Mu Chen analyzed that many ladies were unsatisfactory, so this time the selection of concubines is no longer limited to the recommendation of the royal family or officials, but all women can participate.

According to folk legends, today's prince has amazing talent and earth-shattering appearance, and he is the successor to the throne, so no matter from the royal family to the nobles, down to the common people, as long as the daughters of the family have a little bit of beauty or a little talent, they have all sent them to participate in the election, and even some women who are far away from several towns have worked tirelessly day and night to come to the election, and the number of candidates has been much more than expected.

Of course, not everyone who comes to run for election can show himself in front of the prince, and all women who run for election must first go through the primary election before entering the palace to meet the prince.

However, the so-called primary election only eliminated a small number of people who even normal people find difficult to accept, such as being pitifully young or difficult to see, as for the rest, no one knows the prince's taste, so it is better to leave the prince to choose it himself.

On the main hall, Emperor Yonghe sat in the middle, next to Mu Chen, and on both sides sat Concubine An, Concubine Hua and the second prince Zixi.

Of course, the protagonist is Mu Chen, and everyone else is here to watch and join in the fun.

Today's Mu Chen is rarely wearing a bright purple palace robe, with a golden dragon totem embroidered on the front, and a purple jade gold crown on his head, which is refreshing.

The show girls in the primary selection of Tongguò are a group of ten, brought to the front of the palace by the eunuchs, and then introduce themselves one by one, if the prince nods and is satisfied, then stay in the palace as the prince's concubine, as for whether he can become a side concubine in the end, it remains to be considered by the prince slowly.

She thought that if she chose a few at random, it would be over soon, but she didn't think that there were too many people, and she couldn't finish it, and there were a lot of delicate and contrived ones, and there were few beautiful and refined ones, and she felt almost the same when she looked at each one, so she soon felt visual fatigue, and her elbow was propped up on the arm of the chair, and her palm supported her jaw, drowsy.

After a whole day, she finally chose a few, and it was Emperor Yonghe, Concubine An, and Concubine Hua who said yes from the side, so she nodded and let them stay.

She had yawned countless times, almost trying to use a bamboo stick to support her eyelids, but how could there be no end?

Thinking that she had already chosen a few and could make a difference, she almost didn't look at the waves of beauties behind her, so she raised her hand and let them go down.

Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice coming from the group of show girls below: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, I will regret if you don't choose." ”

The voice was faint and gentle, provocative, and it tickled people's ears when they heard it, and Mu Chen couldn't help but raise his eyes.

How could it be her? No, it's him?

"She" is tall, a head taller than all the women next to her, holding a silk scarf in her hand, hanging her head slightly, smiling, and her expression is slightly shy, which is clearly him.

Mu Chen was so stunned that his eyes were about to fall out, and he was speechless.
