Seicho-in. Cold Palace.

Zhiying woke up from the dream, and when he opened his eyes, he was surrounded by a raging sea of fire, and he was stunned.

"W-What's going on?" She turned her head in horror to look around, and everywhere she looked, there were window frames, door panels, curtains...... Everything that could be burned was burned, "Come on!" Xiaoqiu! Xiaoqiu! ”

She called out the name of the maid, but received no answer, so she struggled to move her limbs and crawled out of bed with difficulty.

The body that had just finished giving birth was very weak, and the food she had eaten in the past few days was all leftovers, and Zhiying didn't even have the strength to stand up, so she could only fall crookedly all the way forward, holding the table and chair to the door with difficulty, and reached out to pull the door.

The burning door panel did not move at all, and I shook it vigorously a few times, but it still didn't work.

The door was locked from the outside.

The weather in the cold winter was already dry, and the room was full of wood and fabrics that were easy to burn, and the fire became more and more fierce after a while, so Zhiying decisively gave up the door, gritted his teeth and dragged an embroidered stool, and threw himself to the window with all his strength.

"Boom!" The window was smashed, and his smooth forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and he staggered to the window, and when he looked out, the blood all over his body was cold.

Xiaoqiu, the personal maid, had her throat cut and lay down under the porch without a bare eye, most of her clothes were already on fire, and the firelight reflected her desperate expression, which was as unreal as a nightmare.

How so...... How could it be...... What the hell is this......

Holding Ying covered her mouth with her hands, her body shook, unable to support it, and sat down on the ground.

Why is this happening? In just three days, his child was gone, and he changed from the queen of the mother world to the daughter of an abandoned concubine in the cold palace and a criminal minister, that man...... The man who respects him like a guest and loves him very much clearly said that although the evidence of the eldest grandson's collusion with the Seventh Prince to rebel is conclusive, but considering the relationship between husband and wife, she will still take her back to Yaohua Palace after the turmoil passes, even if she can't be a queen, she can be a concubine, and her past favors will not be less, but why......

"Yo, is the mother awake?" Outside the broken window, the voice of the great eunuch Fude was heard.

Zhiying trembled, got up again and threw himself at the window: "What's going on?" Who told you to kill me? What about the emperor? I want to see the emperor! ”

Fu put his hands together and smiled: "Niangniang, the slave is standing here, what emperor do you still see." ”

Holding Ying propped up the desk in front of the window, shaking: "You...... What do you mean by that? ”

Fu said: "Why don't you think about it, if the emperor didn't open the dragon's mouth, the slave would have the courage to come to you to kill people and set fires, right?" Hey, I thought that you would sleep all the time after drinking the medicine, and it would be a little less painful, why did you wake up? ”

Zhiying's eyes widened: "The emperor asked you to kill me?" No...... Impossible, impossible! The emperor said he wouldn't kill me! Where is the emperor? Let me see the emperor! I choked on a puff of black smoke and coughed so much that tears flowed out.

"Niangniang is also a young lady of the official family, how can she not know the truth that the heavenly family is ruthless? The emperor said that he would not kill you, but he said it to the civil and military officials and the people of the world, can you believe it? Fu sighed regretfully, "Since Niangniang is awake, the slave will tell Niangniang about it again, the emperor has long planned to get rid of the Seventh Prince and the eldest grandson together, and the bowl of bird's nest porridge mixed with safflower you drank two days ago was also prepared by the emperor's minions." ”

No way...... That's impossible...... He said it, he said it......

Zhiying shook her head in denial, while hearing another voice in her heart shouting: "How is it impossible? Didn't you already think that he did it when you saw Xiaoqiu die? He can even play his own father and brother, you are just one of his women, he is a pawn to contain and use your father, and now that your father is dead, what is he leaving you for? ”

"I don't believe it, I don't believe it!" Zhiying shouted like crazy, struggling to climb out of the window, "I want to see the emperor!" I'm going to hear him tell me otherwise! ”

Just then, the front beams of the house were burned off, and a large part of the roof collapsed, burying her mercilessly.

Forde shook his head and sighed with a miserable expression in the front yard.

"What, you can't bear it?" The man's voice came from outside the courtyard, with a faint murderous aura.

Fu Bude hurriedly smiled: "The slave doesn't dare, the slave just thinks that the mother is still so stubborn when she dies, and she really lives up to the name of a generation of talented women." ”

The man sneered and said, "A generation of talented women? A woman's lack of talent is virtue and merit. ”

"The minions are here."

"I went back first, you arranged for someone to clean up tomorrow, the rebellion of Changsun Tai stimulated the queen a lot, although the means of arson and self-immolation were a little more intense, but the people have gone, I will no longer pursue it, and I will still be buried according to the queen's etiquette."

"Yes."

It's ruthless...... It's really ruthless...... Zhiying was crushed under the rubble, her skin and flesh had been burned by the flames, but she didn't feel the slightest pain, because the pain in her heart far outweighed the pain in her body.

He was married to him, and slept in the same bed for six years, but in the end he was abandoned like a shoe, and died in a cold palace in a desolate and desolate manner, not to mention, in order to fulfill his name of king's benevolence and righteousness, he was also labeled as arson and self-immolation!

Cui Renyu ...... You are so ruthless ......" As he was dying, Zhiying lay in the collapsing palace and muttered to himself, "If there is an afterlife, I will call you...... Bear...... It's better to die! ”

On the twenty-sixth day of the first month of the third year of Qisheng, the eldest grandson was full of grace and died, and Emperor Qisheng was grateful for the love of husband and wife, and was still buried with the queen's ceremony, and was buried in the imperial mausoleum.

On a cold night in the middle of winter, when the moon was exhausted and the stars were scarce, a fire in Qingqiu Courtyard ended the life of the eldest grandson Zhiying at the age of 22, and burned all her good name and talent during her lifetime.

If there is an afterlife, I want you to live rather than die!

……

"Oh, oh, oh-"

At the sound of the rooster's crow, Zhiying opened his eyes violently and gasped violently.

I'm alive? Here it is...... She barely aimed at Jiao, and saw that the top of the tent above was embroidered with patterns such as mandarin ducks playing in the water, dragons and phoenixes, and other patterns, and she couldn't tell where she was for a while.

I was about to sit up, but suddenly I felt something pressed on my chest, and when I raised my hand to touch it, it was a man's arm.

Zhiying was confused - wasn't he burned to death by fire in the cold palace? How can you lie here, here is ......

She opened the tent, only to see that the windows in the room were bright and clean, and there were still leftover drinks and dishes on the table, and there was a faint sweet fragrance in the air, which was almost inaudible.

When I touched my stomach again, I didn't seem to feel any discomfort.

Could it be that miscarriage, debasement and the fire in the cold palace are all Nan Ke's dreams, and they are all imagined by himself? If so, when did it begin? Or is it my current self in a dream? Zhiying frowned, pushed the arm away, and sat up.

The thighs were a little slippery, presumably left by the clouds and rain last night, and Zhiying tried hard to recall for a long time, and he didn't remember when he and Cui Jie had been to such a place, so he had to hurriedly tie the tie of his belly pocket and bend down to pick up the dress thrown at the foot of the bed to wear.

Before her fingers touched her dress, the door was slammed open, and a large group of people swarmed in, and the first person who hit her was her father, Sun Tai.

As soon as the eldest grandson Tai entered the door, he saw his daughter's disheveled appearance, and suddenly became angry, and shouted angrily: "Beast! It's shameless! ”

Zhiying was stunned by his scolding, and before he could answer, he saw his mother Fan covering her face with a handkerchief and crying: "My son, how can you practice yourself like this? How can you let your mother live in the future! ”

Zhiying became more and more confused, and asked: "Dad, mother, ...... What are you talking about? ”

"What are you talking about? Do you still have the face to ask? The eldest grandson Tai rushed up and slapped him, "As a young lady, you actually ran into the Qinglou to fool around with a man, do you want to make me angry to death?" ”

Zhiying's lips twitched, and there was still chaos in his mind, but he vaguely grasped something.

At that moment, the bed crunched, and the man sleeping next to him yawned and sat up.

As soon as Zhiying turned around, he gasped for a moment and almost fell out of bed.

How could it be him?!

Zhiying never dreamed that the person who slept with him would be Cui Yi, the martial king who died in the Battle of Bailonggang two years ago!

It's not her husband Qisheng Emperor Cui Jie, but his second brother Cui Yi, a person who is already dead, what is going on?

Cui Yi hiccuped, his mouth was full of wine, and he asked sleepily, "When is it?" ”

Changsun Tai saw that it was him, and knelt on the ground with a plop: "The king, the prince——! ”

Cui Yi's thick eyebrows were furrowed, and the murderous light in his eyes flashed like an eagle falcon, and he said unhappily: "What's disturbing?" ”

Zhiying's heart was like five thunderbolts, and thousands of thoughts flashed in an instant.

Isn't he dead? Why do you sleep with me? Could it be that I'm dead, this is the afterlife? But as a female dependent, they are used as a teacher and musician, and they won't die, so why are they here? My aunt just said that this is a brothel? Why is it in a brothel? I've never been to a brothel!

Cui Yi's upper body was naked, revealing a strong muscle, rubbing his hair indiscriminately, and said impatiently: "What's the matter, Lord Eldest Sun?" ”

Changsun Tai's expression was worse than death, and he beat his chest to express his mood at the moment, but Cui Yi is the prince, and the prince has an order, no matter how difficult it is to speak, he has to tell the truth.

"Returning to the prince, the daughter of the old minister...... Zhiying, she didn't return all night last night, and the old minister sent people to inquire around, only to know that someone saw her enter the ...... Carved building, old minister...... I really didn't expect the prince to be here," the eldest grandson Tai clutched the hem of his clothes in pain, "Lord, if the prince has a crush on the little girl, he just needs to say it to the emperor, how dare the old minister disobey, why bother, why bother......"

Cui Yi frowned, as if he was thinking about something, but Zhiying understood a lot of information at that moment.

Since the father can say "If the prince has a crush on the little girl, he only needs to say it to the emperor, how dare the old minister disobey", it proves that he should still be in the boudoir, and has not yet been elected as the crown princess, but before that, had he ever been arrested in a brothel with Cui Yi? Why don't you remember at all?

"This is the eldest grandson's daughter?" Cui Yi was silent for a long time, and only popped out such a sentence.

The eldest grandson Tai snorted and cried: "Yes......"

Cui Yi frowned, turned over and got out of bed: "Since it is the daughter of the eldest grandson, this king is married." He picked up his clothes and trousers on the ground and put them on in twos and threes, and went to the saber hanging in the corner of the screen, and he was about to go away.
