I asked, "How did you meet Emperor Qi?" He doesn't stay in the palace well, what is he going to do when he comes out! ”

Chu Yi said: "I don't know, the emperor may have come out to make a private patrol, and then happened to run into us." ”

This is the only reason that can be explained. I continued to ask, "What is the relationship between the master of the house where we stayed and you, the prince?"

"The son of their second elder used to be my subordinate. Brother Zhou once sacrificed his life on the battlefield to save me, he has no family and no siblings, only this pair of elderly parents. I have nothing to repay, so I can only do my filial piety for Brother Zhou. ”

It turns out that this is the case, no wonder the courtyard is full of people from the Li Palace. "Also, my lord, what are you crazy about early in the morning, why did you bring me here?"

"Girl," he stopped and looked at me solemnly, "whether it's in Chang'an or Yucheng, have you ever been to a village?"

I thought about it, but shook my head. How could my father allow me, a troublemaker, to leave the city at will! Chu Yi said: "You are a dignified county lord, for your safety, General Shang will never let you come to such a place." You just know where the child's father went, this is the real state of people's lives. You've been growing up in the Imperial City, and all you see is the world through the screen. What you see is a cluster of flowers on the screen, and you think the world is like this. However, when you remove the screen, you will find that the world is so tattered. Now, the Three Kingdoms seem to be relatively calm, but sooner or later, wars will break out. ”

I was a little dazed when I heard this, and I said, "Lord Wang, please make it clear, I really don't understand it."

"Wu'er, you were born in the emperor's family, you have innate glory and wealth, but you also have to take your own responsibilities, not to mention that you still belong to the battlefield. When the wind and smoke rise, more children can only watch. Some people participate in wars for profit, while others do so for long-lasting peace. What kind of do you think you are? He stood with his hands behind his back, and the wind blew his robe, as if he was more secular and independent.

I said slowly: "My father often said that the civil ministers rule the prosperous times, and the military generals will rule the troubled times. When I was a child, every time I practiced martial arts to wipe my tears, my father would actually feel very distressed. He said that he also hoped that I was just an embroidery girl in the boudoir, but the children of merchants have the responsibilities of merchants, and my father said that I still bear the responsibilities of others. My dad is gone, and my brother doesn't know where. I don't know who I am now, but I am called a merchant one day, and I am a merchant's daughter one day. I will definitely take responsibility for my business. However, in a stormy world, without the support of my family, I don't know how I should go on. ”

Chu Yi touched my head, "If I can, I don't want to see you on the battlefield." You'er, you're well protected by General Shang. But you have to learn to grow up now. The unification of the world means the destruction of two countries. War is bound to face sacrifices. You are the one who walks the battlefield, and those who die will be the people around you. He will be your family, he will be your friend. Wu'er, I said so much to say that I am sorry for Ling Zun's death, but I am not wrong. The battle of Yucheng is inevitable. You have to learn to face these lives and deaths, and when the war starts, it will be a regular occurrence. It's like I'm standing in front of you right now, but~"

"I'm tired, let's go back." I interrupted him and climbed on my horse. I ended the conversation with a loud voice, it was too deep.

All the way, no one spoke.

Approaching the small courtyard, I saw a carriage parked outside. Chu Yi said: "It seems to be the carriage in the eldest brother's mansion." "Thinking of Princess Yi, I don't know why, I shook a little.

Seeing that we were back, the little guy in the carriage hurriedly jumped down. "I've seen the prince!"

Chu Yi said, "Is there anything wrong with King Yi?"

"Back to the prince, Princess Yi said that she wanted to meet the five girls in your house. The little one came to pick up the girl. ”

I turned around and said to Chu Yi: "Since it has been opened, it must be completely understood after all." Lord, I'll just go back to the city by myself, you don't have to worry about me. You finally took the time to talk to Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou here. ”

The little guy had already prepared the bench, and when I stepped on the bench, I turned around and said, "Lord, I will never allow you to have any possibility." ”

I don't know when I learned Chu Yi's habits, when I got into the carriage, I would close my eyes and think about things. Perhaps, it was really Chu Yi who said, I was protected too well, and there are still some teenagers who don't know what it's like to be sad. I never had too many worries, at most I was annoyed by Liu Yiyi. Nowadays, without the backing of the merchants, I have to learn to face too many problems on my own. I can't imagine what I will face when I return to Zhou.

When I entered Jinling City, I opened the curtain and watched these people coming and going. The prosperity in front of me makes me feel a little cold.

Inadvertently, I saw an oncoming carriage, which seemed to be Lord Yan's. I wanted to stop the groom to stop, but I thought about it or gave up, I couldn't bring any disturbance to Lord Yan.

Seeing Princess Yi again, she is no longer as crazy as yesterday, and has returned to her previous dignity. I guess she had told her to disperse, and Princess Yi was the only one in the room, and she sat in front of the piano, and as soon as I stepped into the house, she began to pluck the strings. What she played was pear blossom song.

She stopped playing the piano and said, "This is my uncle's original song, and it is also a song played for my aunt alone." After my uncle was unjustly killed, there are still three people in this world who can make this pear blossom song. These three people are, me, General Shang, and the new emperor of Zhou. ”

I said, "How do you know that my father and Xia Qian will play this song?"

Princess Yi didn't answer me, she plucked the strings again, "You dance with my piano first, and I'll tell you." ”

Princess Yi's piano sounded again, and I danced slowly to the sound of the piano. I was dancing and dancing when I heard the strings break with a clang.

I turned my head to look at her, and she was already in tears. I asked worriedly, "Princess, you're all right." ”

Although one of the strings was broken, Princess Yi still plucked the strings next to her. She said faintly: "You and your aunt are not very similar, but dancing this pear blossom dance is the charm of your aunt back then." General Shang and I know pear blossom songs, just because we listen to them a lot. The uncle said that he would teach his son-in-law this song in the future. And the pear blossom dance is also what my aunt said she would teach her daughter. I guess Emperor Zhou will, because I know that it is no accident that you were posthumously crowned queen. General Shang and Mrs. Shang have a heart, and they have cultivated you exactly according to your aunt's expectations for her daughter. ”

My hands trembled uncontrollably, and I tried to speak, but I couldn't make any sound. Princess Yi stood up, she stared at my face, "Whether you can accept it or not, you are my aunt's daughter, the child who survived from prison!" ”
