Before dawn came, Xue had already woken up, and looking at the golden inner sanctum, she felt a little dazzling, she pinched her face hard, and then let out a "Ah! She knew it wasn't a dream, but she still had to confirm it so childishly, and Snow herself smiled.

Xue got out of bed, walked to the back of the screen, skillfully wrapped a part of the prince that should not exist with a wrap, at this time, the bedroom door was suddenly opened, Xue was excited, panicked, and finally found that there was nowhere to hide in this room, and finally she turned over to bed and wrapped herself in the quilt as she had done in Shihualou before.

Aunt Ning came in and saw the trembling quilt on the bed, and suddenly realized that she was not serving well, and hurriedly called Xue:

"Your Highness, it's me, Ning Ying."

Xue was relieved when she heard Ning Ying's voice, stretched out her little head, and made sure that it was Ning Ying herself who kicked the quilt away, and then wiped the fine sweat oozing from her forehead.

Aunt Ning saw that her hair was messy at the moment, and half of the wrap was still wrapped around her body, she felt cute and distressed, so she hurriedly put down the washing utensils in her hand, tidied up her appearance for Xue, stroked the green silk of Xue, and sighed:

"Your Highness's ebony black hair, if it is combed into a bun, it must be very beautiful."

Xue listened, her eyes couldn't help but redden, she knew that Aunt Ning was best at two things, one was tailoring and embroidery, and the other was combing her hair in a bun.

Xue hurriedly turned around, held Aunt Ning's hand, and said to her with a smile:

"Ji'er is really sorry for Aunt Ning, your good skills have not been shown."

Aunt Ning was obviously feeling sorry for Xue, but it turned out that Xue was comforting herself, and she couldn't help but burst into tears. Although Xue said it beautifully, her loss and regret could not deceive what she thought.

The two hurriedly wiped away their tears, Xue smiled and took Aunt Ning's hand and walked to the dresser, then sat down by herself, put Aunt Ning's hand on her shoulder, looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and said with relief again:

"Aunt Ning, don't worry about the princess anymore...... This is the path I chose myself, I am happy to be able to help Ah Ji, don't feel sorry for me. ”

Finally, leave a big smile in the mirror.

Because of Xue's special identity, Xue said that she was used to staying in the people, so she finally refused the arrangement of the servants on the Queen Mother's side, so in the huge East Palace, except for Aunt Ning and Gonggong Jiang, there was no one left to serve.

In this way, Xue does not have to worry about the exposure of the woman's identity.

Therefore, this morning's hiding in the quilt will never happen again, Xue sighed that Aunt Ning was thoughtful, in this palace belonging to Sima Ji, she also had a place to take off her clothes.

The cold night is about to dawn, Xue has changed into court clothes early, which is made by Aunt Ning, according to her size, deliberately made looser, on the one hand, so that Xue will not look thin and thin, on the other hand, it can also avoid some physical embarrassment.

What to do today, what to say, last night, although the snow had been practiced with Sima Cheng many times, but when the dawn was about to fade and the bell of the early dynasty rang in the sky above Luojing, the snow was instantly like that morning, and the birds that stopped on the vertical ridge of the temple were startled with a deep loud sound.

The melodious sound of the bell announced to the people of Luojing that the early dynasty was approaching and a new day had arrived. The officials scattered in various neighborhoods have also already dressed up and are ready to enter the palace to face the saints.

The heavy palace gate slowly opened, and this day finally arrived.

Xue and his party set off earlier than the scheduled hour, Aunt Ning was like saying goodbye to a child who was about to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and saw the three of them leave the East Palace, Jiang Gonggong led Xue and Sima Cheng to the Taiji Palace, because they came out early, Jiang Gonggong deliberately slowed down, and the three of them walked slowly in the inner palace.

Even seven years ago, Xue had never set foot in the previous dynasty, and on the way into the palace yesterday, Xue vaguely saw the true face of the former dynasty for the first time through the shaking curtains. Behind the gray and white palace walls, the arches are staggered, the towering pavilions cover the sky and the sun, and the heat of the summer heat rises and the gilded copper tiles intersect, adding a layer of mystery.

One step into the corridor of nine curves, the snow walked to the old place again, still feeling that this place was so strange, the morning dew had obviously completely dissipated, but under the sky, it seemed to be covered with a layer of gray sand, pressing people out of breath.

In fact, after Xue and Sima Cheng discussed in the study last night, Xue proposed that the two of them went to the Taiji Hall privately, stroking the palace pillar outside the Taiji Palace, the carving of the golden dragon pillar slid across the palm, but it was like a thorn piercing the skin, Xue finally did not have the courage to walk in, with the swaying cage fire and the hazy moonlight, the two stopped on the avenue with the white jade carved fence outside the main hall, silently staring at this dark behemoth.

Xue had mixed feelings in his heart, and wanted to blow the wind, so he and Sima Cheng went to the second highest place in the palace after the main hall, Brahma Pavilion, which was the founding emperor of Dayu in order to worship the Buddha, so near the palace gate facing the ancient temple White Horse Temple, this Tongtian Pavilion was built. The two climbed the pavilion, on the south side, the fire trees and silver flowers outside the palace wall, a little bright, and when they turned their heads, there were lights and lights in the gray tiles of the high wall, and the lonely lamp was afterimage.

When Xue was a child, she always heard others say how wonderful the world outside the palace was, so she always wanted to go to the pavilion and overlook it, but now that she is here, the two realms of the world and the abyss seem to be more and more desolate in the palace.

Unfortunately, he became an emperor and was imprisoned in Afang Palace for life.

Unconsciously, the three of them are about to reach the boundary of the previous dynasty, and in front of them are the three major halls of the previous dynasty: the Taiji Main Hall, the Yuanji Middle Hall and the Xuanguang Palace. Crossing the Xuanguang Gate, the corridor outside the hall has been replaced with white marble, before entering the middle hall of the wish, the snow leans on the carved railing, pokes out slightly, only to see the Zhu Gate wide open, the officials in court clothes rush in, the steps are hurried, the look is solemn.

Xue was about to turn around, and without a glance, she saw her good imperial uncle Sima Lie.

Snow couldn't help but shake her body.

The pomelo yellow and black-edged clothes that Sima Lie was wearing were not much different from the outfit of his father in Xue's impression, but he was still wearing a ribbon, which was a belt tied to the official seal, a symbol of official rank, and he was all over his body, and it could be seen that he was just a courtier.

Sima Lie looked as if nothing had happened, but in fact, there was already a fierce light hidden in his eyes, and the frivolity and playfulness between his eyebrows may have already broken Xue Qian a hundred times in his heart.

At this time, a man in a gorgeous court dress walked up to Sima Lie, the man was a little older than Sima Lie, the two talked a few words, only to see the man glaring angrily, stamping his feet excitedly, and was stopped by Sima Lie.

"That's Sikong, the fifth prince Sima He." Sima Cheng's faint voice came from behind his ears.

Xue was startled, and even her breathing stopped for a few seconds, she suddenly turned around and punched Sima Cheng's arm like a child, glancing at him dissatisfied.

Sima Cheng's complexion did not change, and his long figure stood behind Xue, like a straight pine, but Gonggong Jiang on the side leaned over and reminded respectfully:

"Your Highness is already Your Highness, and you won't have to do such a child's act in the court anymore."

Jiang Shangyi's voice was deep and slow, Xue came back to his senses and didn't dare to act rashly.

The snow was outside, and the last time I looked up at the eaves and arches of this hall, even if it was the second time, the snow still couldn't get close to these buildings, and felt that I didn't belong here.
