Red Dress

In Tianchi Mountain, outside Chaoyun Palace, there is a huge peach tree growing on a cliff, the thick trunk is four or five adult boys and young men can not hold together, half of the huge roots are exposed to the ground, criss-crossed, coiled and criss-crossed, coiled and Wolong, and the other half is deeply rooted in the cliff cracks, surviving in danger.

The thick and winding branches stretch wantonly, stretching along the cold mountain wind to the tumbling sea of clouds, the peach blossoms on the branches are scorching, the fragrance of flowers lingers, and the fire-like brilliance reflects the entire cliff, like the last gorgeous twilight when the west sets, and like the brilliance of the new life when the morning sun is born.

In the shadow of the sky, a red cloth stood with his hands in his hands, the smoke beside him, the sea of clouds under his feet, the red clothes seemed to be blood over blood, and the trance was the only and only touch of magnificence left in the world, and the sky was burning around him and lost his color in an instant.

A black shadow flashed in the air, and a person knelt behind him, and said respectfully, "Palace master, the whistle is coming, and there are officers and soldiers under the mountain who ask to see you." ”

"Throw the carcasses of those eagle dogs into the palace gate."

The red clothes did not move, the words were like ice, and the black shadow glanced up at the staggering clothes, and stopped talking, and finally quietly retreated.

I can't count how many times this is, every time the officers and soldiers of the DPRK go up the mountain to recruit An, none of them leave alive, and the DPRK and the central government have long been resentful of the arrogance of the Chaoyun Palace, but due to the suppression of the emperor, they dare not wantonly admonish, so they can only swallow their anger and secretly make ghosts.

He has been in Chaoyun Palace for thirty-seven years, he has sat in the position of the palace master for thirty years, he has experienced great sorrow and pain, he has long been exhausted, and he has done what the previous palace master did most often, guarding the cliff all day long and looking at the mountains that are unchanged day after day, guarding the tumbling and boiling sea of clouds, white clouds and dogs, but he is like a monk who has seen through the red dust, his heart is as cold as ice.

The previous palace lord was his uncle, the younger brother of his father and mother, according to the rules, he should call the emperor's uncle, and his favorite thing to do most often is to stand in front of the cliff and look at the sky where there is nothing, guarding the mountains and clouds that are unchanged and seem to change every moment.

He remembered that this uncle always looked forward to growing up, always stayed in front of the cliff without saying a word, his eyebrows were staring at the melancholy that could never be erased, and his eyes were as cold as frost, as if nothing in the world could move him half a point.

He originally thought that this imperial uncle of the rivers and lakes must have caused a great disaster before he was demoted to a civilian wandering the rivers and lakes, but later learned that this imperial uncle was tired of the deceit in the palace and gave up everything hidden in the rivers and lakes.

When he was twelve years old, the uncle who had not been moved for ten thousand years smiled at him unprecedentedly, and the next day he was tied to the altar pillar and forced to become the next palace master, because his good imperial uncle suddenly left Chaoyun Palace without saying goodbye, and left a letter when he left, telling him that the elders must support him to be the next palace master, regardless of means.

After he took over the palace master, he perfectly interpreted the word gentleman, and he didn't do a serious thing about gags all day long, he didn't want to become like the unscrupulous imperial uncle who was lonely all day long, without relatives and friends, so he used his secret whistle to find his cousin in the country.

Jiang Guo had a good relationship with the Yan State before the destruction of the country, Jiang Guo had a barren land, no water source, and a bad harvest every year, so Jiang Guo came up with a way to marry to borrow grain and grass from the Yan State to maintain the people's livelihood, and the Yan State required that the person who went to marry must be the supreme woman of the royal family, so the emperor's only sister married into the Yan State and became the concubine of the Yan State.

The emperor of the martyrdom was cunning, taking advantage of the time when Jiang Guo opened the city gate to meet the grain and grass, he waved his troops to attack the city, Jiang Guo did not take precautions, but he lost the country in one day, and the princess heard that the mother country had died, and the fetal gas was moved under the sadness, and after giving birth to a prince who was less than a month, he died of incense, and the prince had a deficiency disease since he was born in the womb, and his body was weak, and the emperor was ashamed of their mother and son, and he was very spoiled by this emperor, and gave him a longevity as the title.

But the whole court and the central government all know that such a sick man with no relatives and no military power will never be crowned as a king.

He learned that he also had a cousin, carrying a sack of ginseng Ganoderma lucidum, Cordyceps sinensis happily went to Shouwang's Mansion, the two talked happily at first sight, he found that the four princes were not as weak as he imagined, but there were some deliberate hidden strength to show weakness, the two were in the same situation, and they couldn't help but have feelings of sympathy for each other.

He often goes to the Shouwang Mansion to drink with the four princes under the moon, enjoy the green waves, and when he is interested, he will compete with each other and learn piano skills.

Helplessly, there is no Tianchang feeling in the palace, and there is no brother for a long time, the fourth prince seems to have moved the idea of ascending to the emperor, he bumped into a heroic female general more than once quietly turned into his house, the two completely held candles and seemed to be discussing something important, and this female general actually stationed troops privately at the border, although the fourth prince didn't say anything to him, but he also guessed eight or nine.

In order to protect this last bit of blood relatives, he placed a secret whistle in the Shouwang Mansion and ordered that in the event of chaos in the mansion, the four princes must be protected. Who knew that the dark whistle had no intention of reporting the matter of the jade seal of the country to Tianchi Mountain, and he also moved his mind, but he regretted it after half of this thought, the rivers and lakes were free and chic, unrestrained, why did he have to suffer in the cold red walls and green tiles!

But there is no way back in the world.

When he sneaked into the secret room of the Ye Mansion, he met the informant placed by the fourth prince in the mansion, this cousin resolutely broke off the old relationship with himself, he wanted to take the girl he liked, but the stupid girl took her heart-wrenching words as a daily joke.

In order to make his path to the throne smoother, the four princes used their connections in the court to attack Chaoyun Palace on the grounds of a cult that brought disaster to the country and the people.

When he went down the mountain again, the new emperor ascended the throne, the Ye Mansion was copied, and the overall situation of Kyoto was decided.

He had sworn never to enter the palace again for half a step, only to wander in the rivers and lakes, and when he heard the secret whistle report that Qiu Lingxuan had a message, the woman wanted to see him, and he went down the mountain and entered the cold and ruthless place again.

She remembered the pure conversation with him with the candle, as if it had just happened yesterday, and she asked him if he had touched the idea of the jade seal, and he nodded truthfully and said that he had moved. She smiled bitterly, her voice was miserable and cold, she said, "That cold stone is really the treasure of the world, no matter how true it is, it can't even exchange for a bowl of hot tea, how can it be compared with the supreme in the world." I underestimated it and valued myself. ”

He mourned in his heart, he wanted to explain to her that he had a good idea, but he had long regretted it, his feelings for her were true, always had been, and it was true a long time ago, but the withering and despair in her eyes made it impossible for him to say this belated admiration, and even if he did, she didn't believe it.

She said that she wanted to leave the palace, and he rejoiced, and she said that she went to say goodbye to the man before leaving, and he did, but this time the farewell was not just for one person, but for everyone, including him.

He regretted it a lot, the strange noise in front of the window at that time made him almost blurt out the truth instantly turned into a lie, if he told the truth despite the voyeuristic figure, would she not have made the idea of parting, would it be possible to stay by his side.

A pale blue figure appeared on the winding mountain road, the figure ran happily on the mountain road, and a few flew bodies and landed on the cliff, and the immature blue cloth stood firm and didn't say a word, drew his saber and rushed towards the person under the tree.

When the sword blade was only an inch away from the flying red clothes, I saw the man fluttering lightly and flicking his hand on the sword body, only to hear "Ding!" With a thud, the sword made of dark iron flew out of the blue coat's hand like lightning, and plunged headlong into the rock under the peach tree, leaving only one hilt to tremble slightly on the rock.

"Yes, this sword is much sharper than last time!"

He turned around and a hint of approval flashed in his eyes, the young man in blue was good-looking, and his big bright eyes were full of familiar cunning, only to see him holding his arms and grinning and saying, "Don't be proud, this saber is not lined with hands, next time I change it, I will definitely beat you down within two moves." ”

He nodded, and with a flick of his red sleeve, a red silk flew out of his sleeve and rolled up on the hilt of the sword that pierced into the rock, and he threw the sword back to the blue coat, and said lightly, "It's a good thing to be ambitious." ”

The blue-clothed grinning sword back into the scabbard, jumped under the peach blossom tree and knelt there respectfully, half coquettish and half complaining, "Sister, you see my brother-in-law reprimanded me with a cold face, today I learned a set of snowflake swordsmanship, Aunt Luzhu praised me for making a lot of progress, and said that I played the sword heroically, there will be many girls crying and shouting to marry me, I also carved an eagle with my own hands today, Aunt Luzhu said that I am very talented, to be a little peach cake to reward me, and when Aunt Luzhu is done, I will bring it to the two of us to eat together." ............”

The blue-clothed young man said and untied the sword at his waist, pointed to the "eagle" on the scabbard and said proudly, "Sister, look, this winged eagle is not very domineering and awe-inspiring." ”

The red-clothed man glanced at the "eagle" on the scabbard that looked like a chicken and not a chicken, tilting his neck and fluttering in the clouds, and sighed helplessly: "If your sister is still alive, she will definitely faint by your own carving spirit." ”

The blue-clothed young man ignored him, dancing and talking about what he had learned, what he had learned, and what Aunt Luzhu had bought him.

Under the peach blossom tree, surrounded by a sea of scorching flowers, there is a small white jade lonely stele, which reads: The tomb of Ye Hao, the eldest daughter of the Ye family.

The young master in blue chattered for a long time, and finally kowtowed to the tombstone, he jumped to the side of the red robe, and said with a smile, "Brother-in-law, tomorrow is my twelfth birthday, have you thought about what gift to give?" ”

The red-clothed man raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and unfolded a beautiful and demonic smile for the first time, just like the smile that the Emperor Uncle lacked Germany had unfolded to him thirty years ago, and the blue-clothed young man who saw it was terrified in his heart, and a trace of ominous premonition came to his heart.

In the shadow of the sky, he turned his eyes to look at the lonely monument under the tree, and the relief and gentleness in his eyes.

"Zhenzhen, don't you want to see the rivers and lakes? Now, I can finally take you there. ”
