6. Chapter 3

Ke Xiaohong huffed and pulled her to avoid Xiaocui's sedan chair, and walked in a different way, but she didn't go far, but she saw a group of people surrounding and blocking the road.

On the small platform in the middle, there was an old storyteller wearing a long shirt and foaming at the mouth, shaking his head: "Bah! After giving the money, I will continue to say, saying that the first emperor is on the throne, and the ** of the Tianyi Dynasty will be divided into two. Empress Xiao in the East Palace and Concubine Yao Shu in the West Palace fought against each other. In other words, this Concubine Yao Shu is really beautiful, gentle and lovely, and the emperor is also an ordinary person, you said that there is a beauty~~" said and pointed at everyone with a fan, "Who doesn't love it?" ”

Everyone burst into laughter and nodded yes.

"Empress Xiao's father is the veteran Xiao Yuansheng, who was stationed at the border as early as when he was young, and he was a famous general. This daughter became the queen, and the Xiao family played a pivotal role in the imperial court. But he favored Concubine Yao Shufei, so he promoted a group of relatives of Concubine Yao Shufei, and when the queen saw it, it was worth it! Immediately, there was a deep fight in the palace! Unexpectedly, Concubine Yao Shu and Queen Xiao became pregnant one after another! The two are fighting openly and secretly~"

The onlookers were stunned and nodded their heads.

"After October, Concubine Yao gave birth to a daughter, but Empress Xiao gave birth to a son and was named the crown prince - that is the emperor today!" The storyteller said and made a gesture with his fists, "This Yao family looks at it, it's amazing, I didn't give birth to a son!" Even the emperor went to the Zhaoyang Hall of the East Palace more often than before, and Concubine Yao Shu's Yaohua Hall was a lot more deserted. Three years later, Queen Xiao gave birth again, still a son, this is our Prince Rong! ”

Everyone at the bottom looked respectful.

"It was originally a festive event, but two months later, Concubine Yao's three-year-old little princess died of illness! The emperor was distressed about the death of the little princess, and blamed himself for snubbing Yao Shufei's mother and daughter to let the tragedy happen, and since then he has often stayed in the Yaohua Palace to comfort the concubine. ”

The people below sighed again.

"Gradually, Queen Xiao's momentum is completely gone, and the Yao family has taken control of the dynasty with the help of Concubine Yao Shu's favor, which is a spring breeze."

The storyteller took a sip of tea, and the crowd threw copper plates into the small bucket in front of them, and the old man looked at the number, then put down the cup and continued: "This limelight has been four years, although the Yao family is powerful, but there is not much ink in this stomach, and it looks chaotic. Everyone said that the foundation of the Tianyi Dynasty for hundreds of years would not last for more than ten years before it was about to collapse. ”

At this point, he lowered his voice, causing everyone to come up and listen to the secret.

The old man didn't continue to say evasive words, but he showed his fan: "But the first emperor built several palaces for Concubine Yao Shu for the sake of a smile for the Pomeranians." In the fourteenth year of this calendar, Concubine Yao Shu was born again, but she was still a princess! The Yao family was disappointed again, but what was even more disappointed was that Concubine Yao Shu gave birth to a princess and ran out of oil and died! ”

There was another sigh underneath.

"The emperor, who was originally very fond of Concubine Yao Shu, actually went against the norm, sealed the palace, and passed the princess to Concubine Qinggui, who had no heirs. At the same time, the emperor inexplicably sealed four kings with different surnames, and I don't know what conditions were discussed, and ordered them to support Sheji within three years. The Yao family felt bad and wanted to rebel, but the emperor took advantage of the Xiao family, who held military power, and the up-and-coming prince with a different surname, and the Yao family was suppressed as soon as they had some momentum. ”

"Misfortune is not a single line, this internal trouble will inevitably be external, perhaps it is the internal strife that has attracted the attention of neighboring countries, our Tianyi Dynasty has formed an alliance with southern Xinjiang, but the Hu people in the north have taken the opportunity to invade northern Xinjiang. The departure from the West had already sent envoys to reconcile with the heavens, but for some reason they returned home overnight and immediately marched in. ”

"The corruption of the imperial court has been greatly damaged, except for General Xiao Lao, who went north to resist the enemy, and there is no general who can fight. That's how it can be good. ”

The old man said with a look of concern for the country and the people, and there was a lot of discussion at the bottom.

"Guess what happened? That's the king with a different surname! The Rong family, this king with a different surname naturally disobeys the public, but they have the ability. With only a few elite cavalry, King Yu swept away the national army and left Beijing. Since then, he has been in a slump since leaving the country, and King Yu has been stationed in the West and has become a terrifying legend - the god of war! ”

The bottom applauded, and the old man brought tea at the right time.

"This northern Hu people were originally nomadic people, and General Xiao led the northern garrison to easily defeat them. But our Tianyi Dynasty won a complete victory, but General Xiao was too old to endure the hardships of the war and passed away. Although the Xiao family won on the surface, they actually lost their military power. For more than ten years, the four kings with different surnames didn't know where they came from, so they worked hard to help the former emperor Kuang to help the country.

"Our Tianyi Dynasty is also slowly recovering, but the emperor has not only one son, these three years ago, the emperor was critically ill, and people from all walks of life rushed into Beijing...... The king with a different surname is actually standing behind the crown prince! ...... in the middle of the night"

"Miss...... Oh...... Ruoyun ......" Xiaohong was afraid that she would listen to her heart, so she quickly pulled her sleeve, but Ruoyun's eyes had already been nailed there, passing through the storyteller and looking into the void.

Not to mention her heart, the door to the past that she has been holding back has been opened so impartially.

In this night, the emperor died, the queen died, and the crown prince Rong Jinhuan ascended the throne as the new emperor, and changed his name to Tianhao the following year. The former queen's Xiao family henchmen were killed one by one, and in addition to the emperor, there was also Rong Yixuan.

The elder Yu Wang died of illness at the border pass, and in the same year, three other princes with different surnames also passed away one after another. The heirs of princes with different surnames who rarely showed up all took his place and became important ministers to assist the new emperor.

In just a few months, the wind and clouds have changed and the dust has settled.

The people all said at the beginning that the hundred-legged insect died but did not stiffen, and they were afraid that the qi was still exhausted. Who knew that after three years, the Tianyi Dynasty was actually governed in an orderly manner, and there was a great trend of revival in the prosperous era.

The blood feud and deep-rooted stubborn forces that have accumulated for many years are difficult to calm.

With the bizarre death of the queen and the rise of paganism, the DPRK and China began to form parties for personal gain, favoritism and irregularities, and officials in various places began to show the ugly state of corruption again.

This Rongwang Mansion was given to him by the emperor three years ago when he was crowned king, and it was originally the largest of the palaces built by the first emperor for Concubine Yao Shu, but the rest of the palaces were demolished and abandoned.

In the past three years, the palace people have rumored that Concubine Yao Shu did not die of illness, but drowned, so the soul asked for her life, and every year there were people who fell into the water and drowned in the pond.

Even if she was locked up in Chu Mansion again, she would naturally know about these "big things" from the gossip of her subordinates, but unfortunately the focus of her subordinates was on the haunted and handsome prince.

And her life was also turned upside down three years ago, how could she forget......

Three years ago, it happened to be her fourteen-year-old age, and her father Su Xi was a pampered bachelor in the Tianyi Dynasty.

And she is Su Xi's pearl and only daughter Su Ruoyun.

There is a female beginning to grow, and it is naturally a baby's tight. Everyone in the capital knows that Lord Su's daughter grew up in the palm of her hand, she rarely goes out, and she must be proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting like her father.

Except for a few ministers who came to the door, she occasionally followed her father into the palace to play, she hadn't seen many people, counting, she was really a young lady raised in the boudoir, and she was full of curiosity about the outside world.

She has never suffered since she was a child, sometimes she wants to go out naughtily, always in exchange for her father's helpless reprimand, Mrs. Su's indisputable character often infects her, and she can always be quiet when she sees her mother's warm smile.

But once she was too naughty, ignoring the visitor's visit, she bumped into the visiting prince privately, and her father even forbade her feet, except for the occasional banquet, although he was not allowed to go anywhere.

But she is a little girl in the end, but she is in the boudoir but yearns for the earth-shattering and touching stories in the book, and fantasizes about when she will meet the lover of her life.

It was also that year that everything changed.

In the same late autumn, the weather is as bleak and cold as this, my father was ordered to go to Dingzhou to give a lecture, touched her head and smiled before leaving, and said that I would bring her a beautiful hairpin back, and when the New Year was over, she pulled up her hair and wore a hairpin to be the eldest lady, and she could get married.

She pretended to be angry and pouted that she would accompany her father for the rest of her life.

Master Su laughed, how can there be a daughter who doesn't get married, I'm afraid that I won't want him as a father when the time comes.

She was in a hurry, and hurriedly pulled her father's sleeve and said, no, no, no, her daughter likes her father the most.

The father smiled and took her hand, patted her and let go, turned and got into the carriage.

The carriage slowly drove out of sight, and she smiled happily and waved, hoping that her father would come back soon, but she didn't know that this letting go was forever.

Daddy left home only a few days, one day late at night, the palace sent his father-in-law to announce the decree, saying that the volume revised by Master Su involved humiliation of the saint and the usurpation of power, and the person who wrote the main writer had been copied and beheaded.

Who knew that in just a few days, my father had contracted the wind cold, and when he came back, he was gone, and only the old servant with him, who was in a semi-coma and coughed, and never opened his eyes to look at her until he died.

The mother couldn't stand the stimulation, so the hanging beam committed suicide and went with her father.

In a few days, she lost her parents and became orphans, but the emperor was seriously ill and died, and the courtiers were busy forming gangs and meeting the new emperor, and she was the only relative on the funeral road of Su Xi University.

When her parents were buried together, she held on to the coffin and cried bitterly, not understanding why the good and decent person disappeared all at once.

She was still in mourning, and someone came to the palace to announce the decree, saying that Su Xi had no children or brothers, and that her daughter had passed on to Mrs. Su's maiden family, the Chu family, and the family property was confiscated and rushed to the treasury.

It's been three years......

Ruoyun sighed, barely came back to her senses, and looked down at her increasingly rough hand in silence.

In the past three years, the uncle who was originally a wealthy businessman has also become the governor of the capital.

Although the edict said that she was passed on, she lived a life of inferiority in Chu Mansion for three years.

Just because her father took her to visit Chu Mansion when she was in his prime, Chu Rulan was ridiculed by her poems and held a grudge several times, and begged her father to return to the emperor: Su Ruoyun died of an incurable disease.

She has become a "dead person" through and through, her name is "Ruoyun" but she has no surname, and Lord Chu even ordered her not to step out of the mansion for half a step.

The ladies of the capital, who doesn't mean Ruorou, went out and sat in a sedan chair, and shy to put their hands in their wide sleeves. When the ladies were reciting poems correctly, she learned to do chores, and she rarely had a break all year round.

Now, she has reached the age where she must get married, but the Chu family is indifferent, but instead opens up for Zhang Luo, the daughter of Gang Jilu.

Chu Rulan was proud, and often sarcastic, saying that she could only sell to a butcher as a little wife in her life.

Looking at the trace of fear in her eyes, Chu Rulan always laughed happily, not caring at all that she was her cousin, who was thin in front of her.

The pampered eldest lady may have forgotten that if she had been in power in Su Mansion, Chu Mansion would have not been in Su Mansion.

For three years, in the face of human warmth, she seems to have gotten used to it.

said that her father was implicated in her letter, but her father died too suddenly and unjustly.

She didn't live on the streets, she had this place to stay, and she was grateful to God for giving her a way to live—if she went out to make a living, she was proud of it, begged for praise from her father, and was full of poetry and truth, but it was the most useless and unsatisfying.

But there is a glimmer of hope in her heart, hoping to redeem the sealed Su Mansion, hoping to find out why her father was executed, and even more hoping to live as a complete "Su Ruoyun", not "Ruoyun".

What Chu Rulan said right now is actually right, she is Ruoyun, and no one knows Su Ruoyun anymore, except for Xiaohong.

Only Xiaohong...... She turned to look at the girl beside her who was holding her gaze, this little girl said that she was an orphan when she was a child, and it was the old lady who picked her up to live, and she couldn't leave the young lady anyway.

My heart was sour for a while, and I couldn't get rid of this boiling hope for three years, for her father, for Xiaohong and for herself, she had to live well and do her best to live.

"Thinking about it like this, it doesn't hurt very much...... she muttered a sentence and laughed, patted Xiaohong's hand and said, "I'm fine, the previous things are over, and it's good to listen to books occasionally, let's go." ”

Over there, the storyteller is talking about the new emperor's accession to the throne and the congratulations of all the people......
