"Sure enough, it's the same as Hongu guessed......"

The eldest princess of An and the eldest princess narrowed her eyes under the white silk swaying in the wind, and a trace of panic slipped through her heart, but her expression was still calm:

"What a wicked woman, this palace will not let your treacherous plan succeed. Drive and go back to the inn! ”

The whirling dress fluttered, and the woman walked out with the guard of honor, all the way to the front hall.

There is green smoke in front of the spirit row, and there are twenty Taoist priests on each side of the Golden Silk Nanmu Zi Palace, who are sitting cross-legged on the plain white futon and chanting Taoist scriptures.

The eldest princess paused, and her eyes fell on the Zigong Palace.

Different from the Quanjinzi Palace where the apse is parked, the golden silk nanmu here is a real one where the remains of Emperor Jingxiao and Empress Qian are placed.

Because the two died on the same day, they were buried in the same cave with the royal rites of Dayi.

The Zigong Palace, which shocked Concubine Xiao in the apse, was obviously one size larger than this, in order to put it on the outermost part of this golden silk Nanmu Zigong on the day of the spirit, and then carried out of the Donghua Gate by one hundred and twenty-eight people.

The past came to mind, and the eldest princess An and the eldest princess sighed coldly, lit incense in front of the incense table and worshipped, and recited silently:

"Brother Huang, back then, you insisted on going your own way because of greed, and finally made a big mistake. Today, the eldest sister came back to see you off, and it can be regarded as the love of the sister and brother. In any case, this palace can't forgive you for the evil deeds of killing your siblings for the throne and brutalizing your father and Lan Guifei.

But the country is always the South China clan's country, the palace for the stability of the community, the joint Tianyanmen Hongzun secretly built the Kunhuang underground palace, and single-handedly stored half of the emperor's jade seal in the underground palace, is to seal the evil royal secrets forever, from the world to know.

But because of greed, you bribed Lei Huan, a disciple of Hongzun, to seize the underground palace map, and finally attracted the killing of the Quartet.

In this way, it seems that Hongu is wrong. The more Hongu longs for stability and balance, the more it messes up everything.

That's it, this palace is no longer silent, and will not let traitors hurt the ninth brother of this palace.

The palace has already made arrangements, if the ninth brother escapes the catastrophe this time, the palace will help him to take charge of the Qiankun, the dragon throne, and ten thousand people. ”

——

Jingyang Palace.

Zhao An saw that Gu Yunyao came back safe and sound, and he was shocked but overjoyed in his heart, and his pale and lukewarm face gradually returned to normal.

Just now, when he stayed in the palace, he received a report that the Seventh Prince was forcibly sent to Duanben Hall by Concubine Xiao, and his own master Yu was about to be buried for Emperor Daxing.

The news came too suddenly.

Zhao An's heart immediately felt cold, and he was about to fall down when it was dark in front of him, but fortunately he was supported by the attendants.

The loss of the master is equivalent to the loss of the backbone of a large family, and the palace is crying.

On weekdays, Zhao An considers himself a calm and wise person, and has also done a lot of beautiful errands for his master and Dongchang.

But now that the Seven Princes and the Master are in trouble, he is so anxious that the Five Ridges and Six Beasts have no idea for a while, and he only has no doppelganger skills, and he doesn't know which one to take care of.

The entire Jingyang Palace was crying and making a fuss, and Gu Yunyao came back with all the mustaches and shadows, not only that, but he was also accompanied by His Royal Highness King Chen, who was about to become the new emperor.

The people of the palace saluted the masters, and then carried basins and water, and people shuttled and busily for a while, combing their hair and cleaning their faces for the masters.

When Zhao An served tea to King Chen, his plain white hands trembled, and half of the tea spilled out of the teacup.

He put down the teacup and "plopped" on the ground, desperately asking King Chen for forgiveness.

"Father-in-law Zhao, hurry up."

King Chen laughed "haha", and when he saw Gu Yunyao changing his clothes and walking to the outer hall, he sat down at the table, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were proudly revealed:

"Actually, you don't have to be afraid of this king, Yu Niangniang, this king is not an ungrateful person, and he knows very well that in this cold and merciless palace, who has deceived this king, and who has protected this king.

You and Xu Niangniang are not thin to this king, but it is a pity that Xu Niangniang has not been able to see the scenery of this king today, and this king will treat you sincerely. ”

Gu Yunyao ignored his false expression, sadness and indignation were intertwined in Yingying's eyes, the mist slowly filled, and he asked unwillingly:

"You...... Why the hell are you doing that! ”

Obviously, she saw through everything.

Because of her temperament, she can't follow the rules like those ordinary women, and now that the person concerned is present, she just wants to ask for clarification.

King Chen smiled and did not answer immediately, and his eyebrows moved. Standing up with his hands in his hands, he walked around the main hall, smiling and sly:

"Yu Niangniang, whether you believe it or not, even if this king doesn't do it this time, Leng Qingtang will do it sooner or later, it's nothing more than a matter of who starts quickly.

The so-called providence makes people, he was the first to be sent to southern Xinjiang by Queen Qian, but he became the king. ”

Gu Yunyao's eyes were shocked, and she frowned tightly.

She had been suspicious, and she had also inquired about Yunxi.

The struggle for imperial power has always been the most bloody and tragic, how can she, a person who lives in the deep palace, easily judge who is right and who is wrong?

The man's graceful posture of facing the wind and talking elegantly made Gu Yunyao dumbfounded, and his mind kept recalling his innocence and innocence in the past.

It turns out that people can disguise, his purity and stupidity are all disguises, they are hidden fangs and claws, I don't know how many pairs of eyes have been blinded, even the scheming Leng Qingtang, I am afraid that this time I will admit it.

King Chen stopped, noticed the strange look in the woman's eyes, and hooked his lips and smiled coldly:

"Why is Yu Niangniang looking at this king like this?"

Gu Yunyao lowered her eyes sadly:

"Hongu just can't figure out why a person who used to be very close suddenly seems to be far away. The palace is now standing with the prince, and the distance is not too far, but the palace can't see through the prince at all. ”

Knowing that it was sarcasm, King Chen's face was natural, and he said with a smile:

"In order to protect himself, this king listened to the plan of the family teacher Wenren Junzheng, and pretended to be crazy and stupid in the palace. Now the king knows that when you show your true face, it will be the first to chill your hearts......"

"The prince really understands."

Gu Yunyao smiled miserably, her lips were cold:

"We are really cold, we were heart-wrenching to the prince at the beginning, you said that you pretended to be stupid just to seek peace overnight, we can understand.

However, why did you stab your teacher with the blade as soon as you took power, and why did you still kill your fourth sister, are these methods what you call benevolence, righteousness, morality, and gratitude retribution? ”

King Chen was not shaken by the woman's tears and questions, and continued to talk about his own reasoning:

"In ancient times, people who have become big things are not informal, how can Concubine Yu ask about this king now? Have you ever thought that Leng Qingtang, the commander of the East Factory, has never stained his hands with innocent blood? The so-called winner, prince, loser, Kou, this battle for power is just the king winning.

Concubine Yu doesn't have to worry too much, you are a person who has no quarrel with the world, so stay in Shoukang Palace in the future and be your concubine with peace of mind. The seventh brother is the most tiring age when he is young, so he doesn't bother to take it with you. ”

"You ......"

Gu Yunyao's eyes were about to breathe fire, and she couldn't bear it and just wanted to get angry, but she was powerless to refute this situation.

Her lips trembled, and she had to accept her fate and speak:

"The prince did not hesitate to fight with Concubine Xiao to save the life of the palace, and the palace is grateful."

King Chen played with the piping of his sleeves, and smiled casually:

"Concubine Yu doesn't have to be like this, this king is just thinking about Yunxi. When they meet in the palace in the future, the king does not want to become enemies with her, and they do not share the sky with each other. ”

"Meet in the palace?"

Gu Yunyao's face turned pale, and she broke out in a cold sweat:

"You... You don't want to attack Yunxi! ”

King Chen turned his eyes to the woman with a strange and mysterious smile:

"How could it be, do it to her...... Hehe, this king is reluctant. ”

After speaking, the person had already stepped out of the hall, followed by the eunuchs and guards.

Gu Yunyao's body was shaky, and she stretched out her arms to support the table, and slowly sat down on the chair.

Zhao An knelt in front of the woman's legs, his eyes wet red:

"Master, I'm afraid something big will happen in the future, what should I do now?"

Gu Yunyao closed her eyes weakly, and two lines of tears rolled down:

"Yunxi can't go back to the capital... Definitely can't go back......"

——

The moonlight casts a faint glow on the tranquil sea, and one or two seabirds soar through the night sky with their wings spread.

Lu Qiange walked onto the deck and saw South China Ji Yan standing at the bow of the boat, looking up at the starry sky blankly.

The girl wore a plain white hemp skirt, and on the edge of the bun were several elegant but featureless chrysanthemum hairpins.

Her light body trembled against the sea breeze, and she couldn't help but wrap her arms around her, she was so thin and helpless.

Before boarding the ship, Lu Qiange saw obituaries posted everywhere in the port and learned that Emperor Jingxiao and Empress Donggong had both returned to heaven.

I thought that Ji Yan in South China would cry and make a fuss, but the result was unexpected.

At that time, she was unusually quiet, and only gritted her teeth and shed tears for a moment, and asked Lu Qiange to find a plain dress for her to change into, which could be regarded as keeping filial piety for her father and mother.

At that time, the girl's strength made Lu Qiange dumbfounded.

Sure enough, as the mother said, South China Ji Yan is pampered on the outside, but she is a very good girl in her bones.

The huge blow of the palace change wore out her madness and sharpness, making her truly mature.

She is like a beautiful gem, after being harshly polished and forged, it finally blooms with the brilliance it deserves.

Seeing the girl on her back, Lu Qiange walked briskly and wrapped her in a big coat, his tone was half blaming, half distressed:

"I don't sleep at night and run here to blow the wind, and I will freeze it carefully!"

The girl's eyes fluttered in the dark night, but she insisted on holding back until her body trembled, and the words with a crying voice were heartbreaking:

"Ah Yan, I can't sleep, when I close my eyes, I think of my father and mother, and I think of Yao'er and Jin'er, who are best with me.

I used to think that I was very powerful, and others would be afraid of me when they saw me. Now I understand that I am a princess, and that what those people are afraid of is only my father and queen mother. Without them, I am actually nothing, and I can't do anything.

I shouldn't rely on my father's love and pampering and pride, and I shouldn't go against my mother everywhere. I'm useless, and if it weren't for me, Yao'er wouldn't have been killed by an arrow. Woo, I miss them so much......"

When she closed her eyes and saw the killing and bloodshed of that night, the girl could no longer stand the torture of memories, and lay on the man's chest and cried bitterly.

Lu Qiange's eyes were stunned.

To be honest, except for Yunxi, there is no one like the girl in front of him, who once again makes him feel the pain of the atrium tearing.

He suddenly realized that this painful feeling should be heartbeat and emotion, right?

With an indescribable heart, he slowly hugged the crying girl.

I never thought that I would be gentle with her, and I comforted her with full patience:

"That's not your fault, you've done a great job. With me in the days to come, I will take care of you, Ji Yan, don't worry. ”

Ji Yan, don't worry——

The girl looked up, her tear-rippling eyes froze for a moment, and then she broke free from his arms, her face hesitant and confused:

"A-chan, you are the prince of the kingdom of Udan, and you are loved by the king and princess, and I, I am nothing.

I'm no longer a noble princess, I'm still being hunted down by my royal brother everywhere, I, I'm afraid of bringing misfortune to you......"

The voice was muffled, and his lips burned.

He kissed her in the night, under the stars.

Time stands still at this moment, and everything is silent.

He looked at her deeply, and felt that she was so dazzling that everything in the world became dull behind her.

The mountains and rivers are full of empty thoughts, and Mo Ruo takes pity on the people in front of him.

Lu Qiange's mood suddenly brightened.

It turned out that he had always been obsessed with it, and he was almost blinded by a leaf.

Holding the girl's little hand and pressing it to his chest, the man bowed his head and poured out to her emotionally:

"Ji Yan, I love you, I will take care of you for the rest of your life."

The girl dismissed her grief, her face stunned, her cheeks unconsciously boiling hot. After a while, the frightened expression gradually broke the ice, and a lot of tears smashed onto the deck with joy.

"Okay, okay, I take your care!"

In response, the girl threw herself into the man's arms again, embracing him excitedly, inseparable.

The footsteps at the stern of the ship were heard in a hurry, and one person reported:

"Your Highness, we found a man in the bilge."

Lu Qiange and South China Ji Yan looked at each other with a suspicious expression, and followed the man down the stairs and into the storage compartment hand in hand.

Just behind the half-foot-high sack of rice noodles, they found a man lying on the ground, eyes closed, and he seemed to have fainted for a long time.

The obvious wound on his back was coagulated and rotten, which should have been the direct cause of his coma.

South China Ji Yan boldly approached him, glanced at his pale face, and exclaimed:

"Ah, this person is the national teacher Yu Xuanji!"
