"Half a year ago, the previous head of the Ye family had just been imprisoned, and the Ye family fell apart in just one day. On the day your father was taken to the border, the elders went to see him off. ”

He paused, a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes, he sent a secret whistle to protect her father, but no one expected that the elders of the Ye family's own family would attack the former head of the family, and he was careless for a while, and there was no way to remedy it after the incident.

"Less than half a day after leaving the capital, your father fell ill with an epidemic, and the leader of the escort out of Beijing was the housekeeper of the Meng family................... Your mother was injured during childbirth and has been bedridden, and later.... I don't know who said about you, and I ........... in a hurry."

She listened quietly, without a trace of fluctuation in her eyes, as if he said that things were trivial things, and these little things had nothing to do with her.

"What about Ye Fan?"

Outside the window, there was a faint sound of dead leaves breaking in the wind, and he quietly skimmed to the window, sighing that the child was frail, and there was no follow-up to the cold winter.

"Is it the hand of the Meng family?"

He nodded and said with some hesitation, "It's the Meng family, but I don't dare to say if there is any indication from the Meng family after that." ”

"Fox, help me with one thing, tomorrow, burn down the house of Naye Mansion!"

She was silent for a long time, and said coldly, a faint gaze flashed in her eyes, he saw it in his eyes, and he only felt bad in his heart, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

"Why?"

"The Ye clan has been completely wiped out, what are you doing leaving that empty house behind! Since you want to say goodbye, you have to say goodbye completely! ”

"What about you?"

She suddenly raised her head and smiled, that smile was incompatible with her pale face, and she looked very awkward, "It's too cold in the palace, I want to go to the rivers and lakes." ”

"Really?"

She reached out and pulled the red thread around her neck out, a crystal clear jade lock shimmering in the dim candlelight.

"This is the jade lock that my father specially built for me when I was born, and my mother said that the jade lock is ruyi, and the jade lock is a gift. Back then, I gave you the idea of giving jade, but unfortunately before the time came, I suffered a catastrophe. Now that I am giving jade with both hands, I don't know if you are willing to take it? ”

He was overjoyed, and carefully took the delicate and small jade lock, ignoring the guilt and unbearability that flashed in his low eyes.

"Tomorrow I will go to the emperor, some words must be made clear, some things must be done, I will return to Qiu Lingxuan, you arrange for someone to wait for me in the backyard, I will leave the palace as soon as I come back, and I will not enter the palace gate half a step from now on."

He nodded solemnly, his eyes filled with joy.

When he was about to leave, he suddenly turned his head and said, "My name is Zichen, Mo Zichen." ”

She nodded, only said a word to pay attention to safety and said nothing, full of joy he did not notice her strangeness, when he went out, there was a touch of blue standing under the corridor outside the door, he recognized it as her maidservant, it seemed to be called green bamboo.

The servant girl saluted him from afar, and her attitude was extremely respectful.

The deafening thunder interrupted his memory, and the letterhead in his hand splashed a few drops of rain, which was a little blurry by the rain, and he slowly opened the letterhead, and the words on the letterhead were full of familiar cunning, but also mixed with great guilt and unease.

"Fox, I was no longer there when you saw this letter, and I can imagine how angry you would have been when you saw it, and you must have raised your eyebrows, pursed your lips, and scared the hell with a blue face. From the acquaintance to the present, this is the first time I have lied to you, and it is also the last time, but you, your identity as the prince has been hidden from me for so long, but I am generous, so I will not worry about you. Since you have come out of that cold and merciless cage, you will go farther, the farther the better, and never come back. Also, I really want to give you that jade lock, but it's not for you to take it casually, no matter how angry you are, you can't throw it away, you must not throw it away! ”

"Also, fox, I apologize to you for the last time I had a gold and jade pendant, I have taken the jade pendant back, it is at the green bamboo, you must accept my apology is to accept it if you don't accept it, you have always been good to me, I remember it, even if I drink Meng Po soup, I will not forget you." Thank you for your kindness to me, I am sorry for you in this life, and the debt I owe will be repaid in the next life. ”

He clutched the paper as thin as a cicada's wings tightly and muttered to himself, "Who said you lied to me for the first time..............."

"Who are you? Why hide in a tree? ”

She tied her head with two balls and asked him with a childish little face.

He is the little prince of Jiang State, with the help of the secret guard, he successfully escaped from the cage escorted, in order not to be captured by the Ninth Army, he has been wearing a beggar suit for a whole month, hiding in the woods every day like a frightened little beast.

Often eats alone on the tree and lives on the tree, he has not been in contact with people for a long time and suddenly sees such a delicate little face, and the first reaction in his heart is: She looks so good-looking, is she a human? Or is it the incarnation of the mountain charm to eat its own?

"Why don't you speak? Are you alone? What about the adults around you? Are you too hungry to speak? Do you want to eat my snack? ”

He has never seen such a talkative person, whether it was before or now, the people around him cherish words like gold, and they can't wait to say every word in their minds after rehearsing it more than a dozen times and then saying it slowly, but she is different, she can say whatever she wants, this kind of freedom and freedom deeply attracted him.

She took out a small package of oiled paper and held it high in the air, a pair of big sparkling eyes were very clean, like crystal clear lake water, just one glance, he could no longer take his eyes off her.

He jumped down the tree and took the snack from her, and she tilted her head and asked, "Can you speak?" ”

He nodded and said, "Yes." ”

The big eyes curled up and asked, "Do you know your name?" ”

He replied obediently, "My name is Zichen." After speaking, he also asked, "Who are you?" Why here? ”

"Me!" She looked up at her cunning little face and said seriously, "I am a fox demon, I have been practicing here in retreat for five hundred years, and I only came out today." ”

She looked at him as if she didn't believe it, and said with a red face, "You don't believe me?" ”

Seeing that she was a little anxious, he nodded hurriedly and said, "I believe, I believe!" ”

She laughed happily and said a little proudly, "Since you believe in me, you are my believer, when my believer can't wear such a downbeat, you close your eyes and count a thousand, and I will change a dress for you." ”

He obediently did so, when he counted a thousand counts and opened his eyes again, he saw that her figure was already gone, just as he was about to leave, he saw the sound of rustling in the grass behind him, and when he turned around, he saw that the girl who called herself the little fox demon was running over with sweat and panting, and she was holding a small package in her arms.

She gasped and opened the small package, which was a red shirt, she stuffed the shirt into his hand, gasping and said, "This.... This is what I conjured......... You.... You put it on and try it .............."

He looked at the shirt in his hand in a daze, and hesitated a little, "This, this seems to be women's clothing............."

She was stunned for a moment, then waved her hand and said, "Ahem!" This is the most popular men's clothing at the moment, but the style is a bit like women's clothing! ”

He believed it, and went to change into the bushes with his clothes, and the moment he walked out of the bushes in the red clothes, her eyes widened, and she looked at him intently, and the gaze that stayed on him made him secretly happy.

"You...... You look so good in this dress, just like the fox demon in the villain's book! ”

“.................”

He was stunned and asked, "Aren't you a fox demon yourself?" ”

She hurriedly said, "Ahem! I mean, when you wear this red dress, you're just like the fox demon in our fox villain book, and you look good anyway! ”

She said something upside down, and before he could react, she put her toes on her tiptoes and used her fingers as a comb to arrange his hair, and for her convenience he simply sat on the ground and let her rub her hair.

"That's it! It's the first time I've tied someone's hair, and it's a little worse than you're used to. In the future, I will come here every day to help you tie your hair, as the days go by, you will get used to it, you don't want to tie your hair, after all, you can't see it, it looks messy to tie your hair, and others will be very rude when they see it. ”

After speaking, he groped out a small bronze mirror from his sleeve and handed it to him, he saw from the mirror that she had pulled her hair for herself, originally her hair was messy, but not so messy that it was knotted, and now his head was like a big bird's nest, the mirror was shining with gold, and he groped to pull out the glowing thing in the "bird's nest".

It was originally a gilded hairpin with a plain face facing the sky.

I only heard her stumble and said, "This, this is what I built with my own hands, just to create its hairpin shape, as for the pattern or something, I didn't think about it myself, you will wear it first, and tomorrow I will pick a better one for you." ”

"No need."

He carefully inserted the somewhat hand-gilded hairpin into the "bird's nest", looked up and smiled at the "little fox demon": "I like this hairpin." ”

"Okay, then this hairpin will be given to you, as a return gift you will play with me in the future, you must not forget me, if you dare to forget, I will punish you for squatting."

He asked, "Why squatting?" ”

"Because squatting can enhance people's memory! The stupid third will be punished for squatting every time he makes a mistake, and after being punished, he will firmly remember that he will never make a mistake again, so it can be seen that if you want to remember, you have to squat. ”

The sound of someone calling loudly in the distance, she hooked up with him, and agreed to see her again tomorrow, he stood in place in red clothes and watched her, his heart was full of joy, he could see her again tomorrow.

However, she did not show up the next day.

He comforted himself for various reasons, until a month later, his uncle, who was the palace master of Chaoyang Palace, found him, he entered Chaoyang Palace, and stayed for fifteen years, and he saw her again in fifteen years, she was dressed in plain clothes, slim and slim in the courtyard, blinking her big eyes that were still smart, and asked him vigilantly, "Who are you?" Why is it on the tree in my Yefu? ”

From the first time you saw me, you lied to me!

You always hate me for not liking to tie my hair, and you don't remember why I don't tie it.

You nagged me to never change my red clothes, but you forgot that my first red clothes were given by you.

You said that the gilded hairpin was incompatible with me, and you were full of joy and put the new ruby crown on my head, and when you took it off, you forgot that the hairpin was also from you.

You blame me for often punishing you for squatting, saying that I am cruel and torture in private, and you forget that this criminal law was taught to me by yourself.

You mumble that I don't trust you and never tell you by your real name.

Actually, I told you early in the morning, but you just forgot about it!

The sound of rain in his ears did not decrease, and the cold wind passed through his clothes, and he shivered a little, looking at the somewhat crooked Juanxiu small characters, he muttered to himself, and there was a faint sound of rustling outside the palace wall, and the man in black who had been following him subconsciously held the long sword at his waist, jumped over, and stayed on the palace wall for a moment before returning to the same place.

"Palace master, there are secret guards."

He stood there as if he hadn't heard it, staring at the letterhead in his hand, but his dim gaze seemed to see something else through the thin paper.

Lu Zhu took a step forward and said, "Palace Master, Miss has one more thing to ask for before she dies." ”

He shook the letterhead in his hand and sneered, "She lied to me and wants me to help!" ”

Lu Zhu took out an object from his sleeve and held it in the palm of his hand, and Xu'er said, "Miss, beg the palace master to take his Su hosta out of the palace before noon." ”

A hairpin lay quietly in the hand of the green bamboo, the plain hosta was scarred, and only half of the plain jade inlaid at the bud was dull and black, and even the hairpin body seemed to have been hit hard by the blade, bent like a hunchbacked old man.

He looked at the "hairpin" called Su Yu Hairpin in a daze, but it was not worthy of the name, and said, "What is she going to do?" ”

"Miss said, since she wants to say goodbye, she must say goodbye completely, a stitch and a thread, and everything she has used will not stay here." ”

He picked up the hairpin in her hand, was silent for a long time, and then turned to himself and said, "In this case, this palace will go to her and take her out of this cage." ”

"Palace Master!"

He didn't hear it, and walked into the rain curtain alone, and suddenly a choked voice came from behind him, only to hear her cry and say, "The palace master doesn't have to go, miss....... Miss, she's right here. ”

He wandered around the empty courtyard, turned his eyes to the tearful girl, and asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”

Lu Zhu took out a small jar from the grass on the side, and choked up, "I grew up in the palace since I was a child, and I have some reliable friends by my side.......... Sprinkled with corpse powder. ”

"You!"

He snatched the jar, angrily filled his chest and slapped her, only to see the blue figure was beaten to the ground, a mouthful of blood spurted out, she said bitterly, "The slave and maid commit the crime, the crime deserves death, the palace master does not have to do it himself, and when the slave and maid take the ashes of the young lady out of the palace to settle them properly, the slave and maid will kill themselves to make amends." ”

The footsteps outside the palace wall gradually approached, the black-clothed man guarding the corner of the wall had already pulled out the long sword on his waist, the raindrops continued, Luzhu sat on the ground, received his angry palm, and there was a sharp pain in the ribs, before she could speak again, she saw a red shadow flashing in front of her, the person had already crossed the wall, and the black-clothed man guarding the corner of the wall also withdrew the long sword and followed closely behind the red-clothed man.

Green Zhi hurriedly got up and followed despite the pain in his body, and his footsteps faltered slightly when he passed by the small side hall where he lived, and the blue sleeves flicked suddenly, and several small black balls flew over like lightning, and at the same time, Green Branch quickly crossed the palace wall and chased after the red figure in the distance.

As soon as the black ball hit the ground, "Bang!" The explosion caused the palace people to look at each other, and when they looked up, they saw the billowing smoke rushing into the sky, and the sea of fire was not affected by the heavy rain at all, greedily devouring everything around.

There was chaos in the palace, and the eunuchs and palace maids shouted everywhere with their voices, "Qiu Lingxuan has gone to the water!" Qiu Lingxuan went to the water. ”

Three days later, the palace posted the emperor's list for medical treatment, saying that the emperor's dragon was not in good health, I don't know what disease he was infected, he turned white overnight, and his mind was dull all day long.

However, the emperor list was unveiled for half a year and was still hanging at the palace gate, but this time no one dared to reach out to unveil the list.

Later, I heard that the queen invited the idiot master who had been walking in the rivers and lakes for many years to the palace, and since then the emperor's condition has improved slightly
