Cao Qin's thin figure trembled slightly, his face was like ice oozing bones, his gloomy eyes exuded indescribable sadness, and the whole person was like a silhouette walking alone in the sun. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

I sat quietly on the opposite side, stroking the Fuji pigeon with one hand, and gradually blurred the Edoni gold inkstone with the other hand, spread out the small parchment scroll and began to write, and soon, when I finished writing, I tied myself to the Fuji pigeon's feet.

The pipa language rising outside the window, and the sound of artillery fire and wind and rain are slow:

The tune is not affectionate first, between the reels and the strings, the infinite heart blooms in the screen, the big strings are like noisy and rapid rain, and the small strings are like whispering and cutting the pearl and jade spinning plate, the two phases are handed over, the throat is tactful, and the silk string buckle is speechless and choked,

A song lingering and reluctant, heroic and heartfelt, graceful and sometimes desolate through the ages, and listen to the chant, and the song is like jade, arranged into short sentences, cold and affectionate.

"Pour a lifetime of love and pity, imprisoned for an infinite period of time, take a lonely boat, a day of dreams, choose a lover for a lifetime, complain about a way to say goodbye, the song is broken and sad, just like now. Invite the green trees of the year, the beautiful trees are in the sky, a piece of scenery, two fans are like weaving, how to discuss the orchestra ......"

The pipa piano language is bright and harmonious, the sense of loneliness and the wind is galloping, and if the big waves are infinite, the lead is washed away and the lead is plain, and the heart is frightened and deducted into the deep affection.

I saw that Cao Qin was also listening, and I felt that God had pity on me, so I gradually sighed:

"Do not do to others what you do not want to be done to yourself, this song was written in the flute language when I was fourteen years old above the lord of Beiming, and played it on the mountain every night to his beloved woman."

Outside, the sound of the pipa was broken, the side door retreated, and there stood quietly outside a woman with an elegant and dignified temperament, a dark green brocade Luan Niao wide-sleeved palace robe, a black and gold pattern brocade belt around her waist, embellished with gold on it, a Jin-style clog, a ruyi scarf tied in front of her, and a short sword.

Next to the comb of sorrowful hair, insert a treasure deer and crane with the spring golden hairpin, wear a rust red sprinkled bright gold carved silk crab claw chrysanthemum palace dress, holding a pipa is different.

The pipa neck is narrow and the belly is flat and pear, four strings and four columns, the web is open to two silver filaments and a half moon, the dial held by the negative hand is painted with a gilded ukiyo-e painting style brocade, the deer neck Tang wood is ancient and horizontal, the lobster at the first place is white sandalwood, and the hand is made of palm cherry wood.

The four pillars of the neck are the Luo Wei Bian Cypress, the body of the piano is made of mulberry wood cherry beech, which is the form of the pipa on the straight armor, but it is slightly different, the four strings are made of silk silk, as if the Luo Wa Satsuma pipa or the Chikuzen pipa is the general silk string, so there is a flavor in the pleasant place.

The eldest princess walked in with the lute in her arms, followed by the dagger woman behind her, and closed the door.

Unexpectedly, when I saw Cao Qin seeing the short sword woman, his expression instantly condensed, and a murderous aura rushed to Yin Tang, but he quickly returned to that sad and erotic state.

When I saw the eldest princess come in, I saluted and stepped aside.

The eldest princess moved her steps, sat down on one side, and said softly, "This is my enlightenment teacher, and I am also the nurse of the queen mother He Yaolan, I guess you have also seen it." ”

Cao Qin's expression changed instantly, his thin lips coughed lightly, and his feet were even more diagonally on the ground.

I've seen many people who lie and cover up with all sorts of imperceptible details that can't escape my eyes.

"My brother is the same as your General Xiukang, he was born in a reckless background," the eldest princess glanced at Cao Qin, "At that time, our family was a farmer from the hot spring farm in He's hometown, just because Master He wanted to choose a girl for the second lady He Yaolan, and Mama Geng picked me,

Single-handedly trained me, cultivated me, taught me to read and write, taught me to use mental means, saw that I was clever, and finally selected me as the second lady's personal first-class girl, and because of this, my brother was also transferred from the farm to the house in the He family's Wuyang City as a housekeeper.

When my brother saw the second lady for the first time, he was shocked. It's also common sense, since we grew up on the farm, how have we ever seen such an elegant and talented girl? Presumably, when General Xiuyasu first met Yodohime's mother, he was in the same situation. ”

"Yodohime's mother is also the daughter of General Xiukang's family, and the eldest princess is not wrong in what she said." I accosted me.

The way of the heart is true feelings, and there are also singing and harmony, but it is not to be exaggerated, in front of Cao Qin, a group of extremely smart people, calm and sincere means are the most available, the eldest princess's trick is worthy of being the husband of the middle woman, and it is quite the right medicine.

The eldest princess didn't look at me, only looked at the pipa in her hand indifferently, and continued, "Later, Master He's family was in trouble, and the He family was involved in the writing case of that year, and the men in the family were killed and exiled, and the women and children who survived moved to the countryside to live in the hot spring farm with Mrs. He and her party.

It was a happy time. Miss He Er is very easy-going, and has been very good at people, my brother is often sent by the old lady to protect Miss, and the three of us ran along the side of Gomos Mountain in Wuyang City, at that time, the corners of everyone's mouths were simply smiling,

The second miss also seems to have walked out of the shadow of the great changes in the family, and restarted her heart, that year, my brother blew the tune to the second miss, and the brother only said that the second miss was the birthday of the second lady, which was a birthday gift, but who couldn't see the love and admiration in my brother's heart? ”

The eldest princess seemed to be thoughtful, but looked at Mama Geng, and the eyes of the two were full of tears, like the dew on the needle of the green shirt, clear and pure, only to hear her continue to say slowly, "However, it didn't take long for Liangshan Liukou to come to the outskirts of Wuyang City to loot, and the old lady and the third lady of the He family were robbed, and they opened 30,000 taels of silver to be ransomed.

At that time, no one dared to go to the Liangshan camp to save people, only the second lady He Yaolan was not afraid, and took me and my brother to Liangshan together, in exchange for the old woman and the eldest lady.

It's just that later, somehow, the second lady actually fell in love with that Liang Yi and became the wife of the village, I could see my brother's pain, and I thought that we would leave and forget the sadness. But ......"

The eldest princess paused, but it was Mama Geng who then looked at us and said leisurely:

"But at that time, the second lady had a child, in order to gain a firm foothold in Liangshan and protect the second lady and the little master, the lord and the eldest princess did not leave, and went to the farm to recruit our mother's family to go to Liangshan together.

Later, Liangshan accepted the imperial court's recruitment, and in the next few years, it was the Eastern Expedition and the Western War, and then the famous Liangshan generals died one by one, and Liang also found out in private that the imperial court originally wanted to use the Liangshan generals to suppress bandits everywhere, and after exhausting their strength, they were all killed.

It's just that in the future, there will be time for a counterattack, and Liang Yi will soon die in an assassination, which is difficult to see.

The second lady and the little young master were in danger, so I sent someone to find the lord and the eldest princess at night, and contacted the gentry in the countryside in the old days.

The Lord took us, relying on the official positions in our hands and the support of the squires and merchants, to build Beiming.

But the lord has affection for the second lady, not because of the squire power behind her, but because it has been like this for a long time, Mr. Cao knows it, and the old slave also sees it in his eyes, but in order to shut up the old slave, Mr. Cao's bloodbathing methods for the old slave's whole family have always made the old slave difficult to understand.

The old slave wanted to make a living secretly, but he didn't expect Mr. Cao to be a Japanese ninja.

The old slave knew that he couldn't live with the He family, and he couldn't live with the lord and the eldest princess, so he tried every possible means to train spies and infiltrate Luo Wei, speaking of which, the old slave has been in Luo Wei for seven years, Mr. Cao——"

For a while, everything in the hall seemed to be still, silent as a long night, and the light of the wind and candles scattered out, brushing the corners of the eldest princess's slightly raised lips, "I don't know who is more fortunate between my brother and General Xiukang?"

General Hideyasu had never spent a day with his sweetheart, Yodohime's mother, the princess of Omi, and he just admired her, and when he could become famous, he went to marry her.

She got married and had children, and General Hideyasu killed Princess Omi's husband and wanted to marry her, but Princess Omie was forced to commit suicide, so General Hideyasu raised Princess Omi's daughter Yodohime, and finally married Yodohime.

After that, he loved her even more.,Put all the infatuation for her mother on Yodohime.,Even when you go out to fight, you take it with you.。

I just want to come to that Dianji Niangniang, who had reached the age of sensibility when her biological parents were forced to die, may not have such no hatred for General Xiukang, the so-called twisted melon is not sweet and other things that are well known to the people, but it seems that General Xiukang does not know about it. ”

"It's not just General Xiukang who doesn't know, I'm afraid you don't know Cao Qin, right?" I followed the eldest princess's allowed gaze, and said firmly, "Hayakawa Kotokusa, oh no, let's call you Cao Qin, you know that Mrs. Beizheng is the main room of General Xiuyasu, but you admire and love in your heart, it won't happen overnight."

Do you know that a ninja must never have a child's personal affairs, you have violated the morality of the samurai, the principles of the ninja, but you are attached to the world, unwilling to cut your stomach, unwilling to commit suicide, or reluctant to commit suicide, is it still reluctant to support Mrs. Kitashosho's life-free promise? ”

"You set up a poisonous plan to make General Xiukang never have the possibility of having an heir, but it was for love, and the love of your widows is only possession?" Mama Geng waved her sleeves, took the eldest princess's pipa and put it aside, and continued:

"Compared to the perfection and protection of our Lord, the love of your widows is so narrow and selfish."

There was silence again, and just when we were about to give up and leave, we heard Cao Qin suddenly say, "I don't believe that Fang Jun sincerely loves He Yaolan, your lord has already favored Song Guifei Niangniang."

The queen mother is lonely day by day, and the eldest prince is even more excluded - love is not happy with it, love is not accompanied by it, love always wants to think about the west, suffers from gains and losses, tries in every way, and does not dare to express his chest directly in a word,

You Beiming people keep saying that they are more civilized and free than Xin, but your so-called love is really hypocritical. ”

"That's because the queen mother was provoked by you and didn't believe in the love of the lord, and the lord was disheartened, so because of Prince Jing's excellence, she loved Song Guifei Niangniang, besides, Song Guifei Niangniang was originally similar to the queen Niangniang's temperament and appearance, so the lord is different, how can you not know.

Everything the queen mother is worried about is just that I am afraid that other princes will succeed to the throne in the future, which will be unfavorable to the non-relatives of the eldest prince.

When the queen mother and the lord gave birth to the prince, most of the lord was established as the prince because he wanted to protect the heart of the queen's mother, so how could he still worry about the difficulty of the eldest prince to preserve?

But not only did you not persuade, but you also blocked the old slave, assassinated the old slave and the maid of the He family for dozens of lives, and what is even more hateful is that you, you actually assassinated the queen mother and drank the decoction that she could no longer have children.

Who are you to love and not to love? Mama Geng's eyes were bloodshot, and the short sword in her hand was almost ready to be withdrawn.

As soon as these words came out, the eldest princess's expression was also amazed, presumably the queen mother He Yaolan could no longer have children, and the eldest princess never knew about it.

"Did you want to go back to Luo Wei this time to assist Mrs. Beizheng to seize power, so you pretended to disappear?" I suddenly smiled, let go of the Fuji pigeon in my hand and opened the window lattice, and the pigeon rushed away in the rain.

"Don't bother, you can't go back, Mrs. Kitasho, the main palace lady of General Hideyasu, your beloved, will no longer believe in your support and love," I glanced at and said, "Soon, this carrier pigeon will bring the letter to General Hideyasu's first daimyo Shogun Tokugawa,

The Tokugawa shogun and the Lady of the Hokumassho faction will quickly deduce from this and a lot of evidence that you have fallen to the lady Yodohime, and borrowed the rumors of having children for it.

I think, with your wisdom, it is all the means by which Mama Geng designed Mrs. Beizheng Institute, and it is said that you are a unicorn ninja, a ghost genius Cao Qin, and Mrs. Beizheng Institute will not doubt it at all."

"You-" Cao Qin's thin body and blue-gray robe kept shaking, and he spat out blood with a pop, but he froze and said, "You shoot the pigeon, and I will follow you to the queen mother to confess." I'll bounce everything. ”

The eldest princess nodded lightly to Mama Geng.

……

When I came back again and rushed to the stage of the Vermilion Bird Tower to meet Qin Qiong, Qin Yi, Sheng Zheng and other generals, the wind and rain had already subsided.

The entire Vermilion Bird Tower was full of blood, and the tower was in fact completely occupied by the Praetorian Guards and the reinforcements of General Ye Chengchou of Fengyi City, and more than half of it had been climbed, leaving only the top lookout and the queen mother and the guards behind her.

In the midst of the fire, I urged my inner breath to try to speak the six senses to the extreme, and only listened to the Lord who had been trying to persuade the queen mother, calling her "Lan'er" one after another, to ensure that her eldest prince was fine.

And the queen mother only stood at the height of the wind, but no one dared to shoot her down, and no one around her dared to persuade her to intercept her.

I vaguely saw her face, it was a pale face with a temperament very similar to Song Guifei, but she was a little older, with pear blossoms and rain, and she felt like crying.

How could the queen mother climb this Suzaku Tower? Is it just for the lookout to have a good view of the battle in Pengcheng?

And why is the Lord also confronting here, such a posture is clearly soft-hearted, and a man's soft-hearted is nothing more than affection.

Heroes are short of breath and children are long, this is human nature.

"Hey, it's a debt" General Qin Yi wiped the blood from his lips, staggered and leaned on Qin Qiong, and sighed, "Why is the Lord obsessed with this woman, I have already said back then, these two people can't stay, but the Lord thinks that they are the family members of the old master, how can they do harm."

Let it be presumptuous, and give the position of the queen and prince, I wish it to be happy, but unexpectedly made it do a lot of harm so far, this time Pengcheng is ruined, why hasn't the Lord woken up! After speaking, he coughed and wheezed frequently, and blood splashed from his lips.

I hurriedly stepped forward and supported the old general with Qin Qiong, but I didn't know how he was injured, everyone was very worried, and wanted to persuade General Qin Yi to go back to the rear to rest first, but he refused to do so, and only muttered to Qin Qiong, Su Su said,

"Over the years, if it weren't for the fact that the lord has always pleaded with the queen mother a little, he couldn't help but agree to her for various reasons, how could Prince Jing and Prince Ning be sent to the battlefield at the same time, and if it wasn't for the lord's repeated connivance, how could the queen and the eldest prince have today's chaos?

How can the queen mother be so ruthless, the infatuation of the Lord for many years is really sighing-"

"But this time, it was the queen who took the initiative to protect the lord hiding in the Vermilion Bird Tower first," I heard General Qin Yi say angrily, so I also persuaded:

"On the balcony, the Lord is talking to the mother about it. I'm afraid that Niangniang may not be completely ruthless to the Lord. ”

And I can't help but think in my heart, if the queen mother is completely ruthless to the Lord, it will not be impossible to see all the stakes, I am afraid that the two of them were originally in love, but they misunderstood each other, and caused this catastrophe in misunderstanding and mistakes, which is really sighing and sad.

General Qin Yi opened his mouth and was about to say something, but he heard a loud commotion in the distance, "Report-"

In the distance, the Praetorian Guard scout raised his voice and said, "The Great Prince led the peasant army to break through from the northeast and fell into the moat and drowned. ”

Word by word, as if it was said that the people on the platform listened to it, after speaking, he also carried a corpse to the bottom of the Suzaku Tower, passed by our side, and carried it up step by step to the Suzaku Tower.

Behind is the frame of the eldest princess, and Cao Qin, who slowly got out of the car with a gray face and stumbled, and Mama Geng, who is protected by a short knife.

I raised my eyes to look at the great prince who passed in front of me.

He didn't get the opportunity to lead a soldier in his lifetime, but at this moment he was wearing a full set of golden Beiming armor, and the red battle robe made him lifeless, and his slightly gray and puffy face looked quite cruel.

Next to it is a helmet made of stainless steel, and even the hair bands wrapped around the soaked hair and the headbands on the helmet are all golden.

I guessed in my heart that this was Liang Yi's armor and battle robe back then.

Although the remnants of the peasant army in the city are still resisting to the death, such tragedy and death seem to be the doomed end that has been laid out layer by layer from the beginning.

Everything in the world, if there is love in the sky, there is no way to recount.

In the middle of my thoughts, I saw the queen mother, stumbling and rushing down from the balcony as if she was crazy, hugging the body of the eldest prince, half dragging and half hugging, entangled with the guards carrying the body upward, and tore up to the lookout.

There, she screamed and cried, her originally beautiful face became hideous and distorted, and the hatred and fire in her eyes penetrated the human body, emitting a kind of misery and grief like a long howl.

"Quick, go up and protect Your Majesty," General Qin Yi instructed General Qin Qiong and me.

We hurriedly crept to the lookout.

As soon as I passed the stage, I saw that the queen mother pounced on the Lord like crazy, and in a panic, I pulled the Rainstorm Pear Flower Needle in my sleeve again, and I didn't know if she was hit by the needle, but I saw that her might was still rushing towards the Lord and hugged him.

I shouted in my heart that it was not good, but I saw that she suddenly smiled miserably, let go of her hand as if she was relieved by pain, and then stumbled back to the corpse of the eldest prince, hugged the corpse tightly with her strength, and turned over and fell down the Suzaku Tower.

I suddenly understood that she originally wanted to hug the Lord one last time, and those resentful and even hateful looks, maybe originally, were not because of the Lord at all.

People grow to hate, but it is difficult to find a confidant, love but not understand, understand but not love, love is a word, it is difficult to discuss through the ages.

"Lan'er—" The Lord cried out bitterly, and the voice was infinitely sad, hanging high in the highest place of Pengcheng, like a crane roaring for nine days.

I saw that he swooped down on the fallen queen mother like his life, but he only grabbed a corner of her clothes, and the guards rushed to stop him, but he fell to the ground, like a child, and sobbed.

It was the first time in my life that I saw the tears of the emperor. However, my heart was sour, and I had an inexplicable feeling of wanting to cry together.
