"But have you ever seen someone who looks like her? Over the years, the emperor has chosen concubines, how many people are like her? Like her? Smiling like her? They were all left in the harem, where are the three thousand beauties of the harem! In fact, she is the only one! Xia Rongxin was almost hysterical.

"But the person who is on the drums of war today, the dancing and squeezing postures are the same as in the past when Lu Fushuang was alive, and the distance is too far to see the real face, but I can always feel that the smile and smile are all what she looked like back then, and her gestures are all the same as she used to be, have you ever seen someone who looks like her? Even Hongu almost confessed his mistake. Xia Rongxin said in a broken heart.

Yun Xi smiled dumbly, listening to what Concubine Mei said was so terrifying, she always felt cold behind her back: "Niangniang, don't scare yourself... It's been so long since the first queen died... It shouldn't be hers. It's better to rest early. Otherwise, the prince will be worried on the front line. ”

"Yun Xi! Yun Xi, you will go to Qin Tianjian tomorrow, early tomorrow morning, and admit your name back, and the palace will know who that person is. Xia Rongxin grabbed Yun Xi's hand and ordered.

Yun Xi didn't seem to know the lady in front of her, and always felt that she was very strange in a panic, but Yun Xi still agreed: "Okay." ”

"Niangniang, it's not early, let's rest early." Yun Xi persuaded.

Xia Rongxin was silent, and she also felt that she was too excited, she sat on the bed, her eyes looking around blankly.

Suddenly caught a glimpse of the bronze mirror on the dressing table, which Yun Xi accidentally touched when he closed the window just now, causing it to deviate from the direction.

Now she sits on the bed and can just see the offset bronze mirror, looking at her own Shaohua who has already passed, the traces of time have carved indelible wrinkles on her face, and the woman she sees today looks only twenty-eight years old, which is the most beautiful age.

Xia Rongxin felt that she was physically and mentally exhausted, and she was in love with the decay in the end...

"Hahahahaha." She burst out laughing.

"Mother?" Yun Xi felt scared, "What's wrong with you, mother?" Do you want to pass on the imperial doctor? ”

"Yun Xi, the woman on the drum platform today is twenty-eight years old, which is the most beautiful age." Xia Rongxin said with a smile, "Bengong thinks, even if Lu Fushuang is alive, she may not be as good as her, right?" Bengong thought that he was going to lose to Lu Fushuang again, but when he thought about it this way, in fact, we all lost. ”

Yun Xi looked embarrassed: "Niangniang looks like a fairy, Rao is also in her twenties after many years, Niangniang, you better go to bed early." ”

"You step down, this palace wants to be alone and quiet." Xia Rongxin slowly suppressed her smile, her eyes staring at her own face in the bronze mirror.

Yun Xi looked left and right, and retreated.

"Hey! … Haven't you slept yet? When Rong Fu passed by the dormitory, he saw that Yun Xi was not there, so he thought that something might have left him, but today the prince had just set out on the expedition, thinking that Niang Niang might not be able to sleep, and he was worried that no one would be here when he sent someone to call, so he waited at the door for Yun Xi, and when he was sitting at the door and was drowsy, Yun Xi suddenly pushed the door out and scared him.

"Ahh Yun Xi was also taken aback by Rong Fu, she patted her chest and shook her head, "No, let me come out and be quiet by myself now." ”

As he spoke, he looked inside uneasily.

"You persuade Niangniang more, let her not worry, the prince is strong in martial arts and can protect himself, besides, General Liang is also beside him, don't worry." Rong Fu whispered, "No matter how bad it is, there are still 100,000 troops, I secretly went to the school field today to see it, how shocking!" The black pressure was full of people, and the sound when the bowl was smashed, I am afraid that the whole of Kyoto heard it. ”

"You still went to see it? What a guts. ”

For this kind of grand festival, they, as entourage slaves and maids, can only wait behind the Ming Terrace, and they can't see inside the school yard.

"Shhhhhh I also wanted to be a soldier before I entered the palace, but my family was poor, and I couldn't get my military salary for a while. And that cleansing fee can save my father's life, there is a younger brother and a younger sister at home, and if my father survives, they can all survive. ”

As he was talking, a gust of autumn wind blew, and the autumn breeze was cool at night, and Rong Fu, who was blowing, shrunk his neck, he rolled up his sleeves, looked at Yun Xi and smiled innocently.

Yun Xi's heart suddenly felt uncomfortable, she turned her face away, and said awkwardly: "You should be careful in the future, if someone finds out, Niangniang will not be able to protect you." ”

"Don't worry. I just took one look and left. Rong Fu smiled.

Yun Xi nodded lightly, her eyes were a little moist, but she suddenly thought of something, turned her head to look at Rong Fu, and asked, "Then have you ever seen the white-clothed goddess dancing on the war drums?" ”

Rong Fu thought for a while, shook his head and said, "When I went there for a while, I didn't see any goddesses on the drums of war. What's wrong? ”

Yun Xi shook his head: "It's okay, Rongfu father-in-law go back to rest early, I'm going to keep vigil for my mother." ”

Rong Fu nodded: "Okay, then I'll go back first, it's slowly getting cold, you wear more clothes during the vigil." ”

Yun Xi answered, and turned back.

Prime Minister's House.

"It's my son." Mrs. Lu said distressed while bandaging the wound on Lu Huiling's foot.

Lu Huiling wanted to dance on the war drums, and the drums were light, so he was worried that the drum would be broken after wearing shoes, so he went up to dance barefoot. When he walked out of the Xuanwu Gate, he stepped on the fragments of the porcelain bowl that the 100,000 army had fallen after drinking the candied wine, and stepped out of the Xuanwu Gate step by step.

"Mother, I'm fine." Lu Huiling smiled, she didn't care about the scar on the soles of her feet, but went to comfort her mother.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have let you go." Mrs. Lu looked at her daughter with tears in her eyes, she was pregnant in October and gave birth to Huiling, it was Huiling who made her a mother, she should be a treasure on the tip of her heart, how could she endure the pain of tearing her heart.

"What nonsense, mother, this is a good thing for the country and the family, others can't compete for it, how can there be a reason to shirk." Lu Huiling smiled and wiped away the tears from the corners of Mrs. Lu's eyes and said with relief.

"How can Xiangye bear it... There is no good place for these feet... It's all rotten..."Mrs. Lu couldn't bear to look at it anymore, so she had to complain about Lu Gaohong and cried.

Fortunately, Mrs. Lu didn't know Lu Gaohong's plan, otherwise she wouldn't have let Lu Gaohong elect Lu Huiling on the drum stage.

Lu Gaohong was listening outside the door at this time, and he couldn't stop feeling distressed in his chest, after all, it was also his daughter, Mrs. Lu only saw visible skin injuries, but he was going to push his daughter into the abyss.

Lu Huiling smiled faintly, she patted Mrs. Lu's back and comforted her, thinking about the scenery she saw on the drum platform today.

…

An army of 100,000 gathered in the Mingtai campus, Qi Jingqin was in command and majestic, and she was also proud, worthy of being the man she admired.

On the drum platform, she stepped on the drum to play a stirring drum music for her beloved, a drum song was suspended, she lowered her head to face the king above 10,000 people, and when she looked up to face the king, her face was full of tears, the corners of her mouth smiled, and she slowly put down Qi Jingqin in her heart.

When she stepped off the drum platform, she walked out of the Xuanwu Gate with the 100,000 army, her tears fell on the sharp porcelain bowl fragments, and she didn't know the pain coming from the soles of her feet, and walked out of the Xuanwu Gate step by step.

The splinters she walked on were mixed with her blood and tears.

Blood is the blood of the soles of the feet, and tears are the blood of the heart.

She thought.

Qi Jingqin, I will send you one last ride, and when you say goodbye, you will all be enemies.

East Palace.

Tonight, Qi Jingyang no longer sang and danced in the East Palace, but carried a pot of liquor alone, sat on the high platform of the East Palace, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and swallowed the liquor one by one.

"The Queen Mother." He sighed.
