"Reluctantly." Jun Chen's tone was still flat and bland, and he couldn't hear any emotion: "Your Highness's eyes are blue and black, and I think I haven't had a good rest for a few days." ”

Since returning to the palace, I have heard the bad news of Concubine Qin, who has just finished the funeral, and there are thirteen princesses who have fainted after being stimulated too much.

Until today, the thirteenth princess has awakened.

In between, Qi Changrong has never had a good rest.

Junchen knew how uncomfortable she felt in her heart, and didn't want to disturb her hard-won comfortable time.

But she was too keen, and even as long as he moved slightly, there were signs of awakening, and as a last resort, Jun Chen didn't move at all, and kept the same posture for two hours.

Now he only felt that his arm was numb and painful, but he didn't show half of it on his face.

Qi Changrong did not deny Jun Chen's statement, but he did not say a word.

Sensing the gloomy mood in her eyes, and the dark clouds that seemed to be shrouded in her heart that had not been lifted yet, Jun Chen proposed, "Your Highness, do you want to go with me to the roof to have a look?" ”

Hearing this, Qi Changrong turned his head and looked at him suspiciously, and even stepped forward to sniff it, and said blankly: "The general has drunk?" ”

No, she didn't smell any alcohol.

"I didn't drink it." Jun Chen held her hand, lowered his eyes and bent his lips and smiled: "But if you stand on a high place, you can see farther, and if you see far, your mind will be broadened." ”

He has his own opinions.

As we all know, General Jun Da is not strong enough to drink.

But he likes to drink, and he will make a lot of jokes after drinking, almost everyone who knows Junchen knows that he will become confused after drinking, and no one can stop him if he has to go to the roof.

Only Junchen himself knows that he is not drunk, he just wants to stand taller, and then see farther and express the depression that has accumulated in his heart.

If it weren't for that, how could he maintain his peace of mind in the midst of the court's dealings with the enemy?

He wasn't born unintentional.

It's not that I never get angry.

Qi Changrong didn't refuse, and obediently stretched out his hand to him: "Lonely's light skills are not good." ”

Hearing this, Junchen raised his eyebrows, then put her two hands on the back of his neck and wrapped them, and then hugged her horizontally, jumped up on tiptoe slightly, stepped on his feet in the air, and landed firmly on the roof.

However, Junchen still did not stop.

After several consecutive jumps, I came to the highest pavilion in Shangjing.

This was originally a flower building, but in the end, Qi Changrong brought someone to copy it, and now it is an empty lonely building.

When the two of them landed on the roof of the building, a thin layer of dust had accumulated on the surrounding railing.

I think it's someone who comes to clean it from time to time, otherwise there would be so little ash here.

Qi Changrong looked around, inexplicably feeling familiar.

As soon as she raised her eyebrows, Jun Chen knew what she meant, and explained: "The Qinglou here has gone from prosperity to defeat because of His Royal Highness. ”

Qi Changrong suddenly realized.

It turned out that this place was also a stronghold of Jiang Bowen.

It was also the first place she started after she returned from rebirth.

Time has passed so long that she almost forgot about it, if it weren't for Junchen by her side to remind her, I'm afraid that tonight she would only think that this is an ordinary place.

After thinking about it, Qi Changrong smiled bitterly first: "I forgot about it, thanks to the general's reminder." ”

"It's normal that Your Highness can't remember."

It's been a few years.

Qi Changrong said quietly: "But the general still remembers." ”

Jun Chen glanced at her: "The reason why I remember it is because for me, His Highness's move can be described as beneficial to the country and the people, but the reason why His Highness doesn't remember it is because for His Highness, this move is normal, and there is no need to bother to remember." ”

Qi Changrong propped his hands on the railing, took a breath and said, "Your Highness, is this praising Gu?" ”

Jun Chen's deep eyes were silent: "Your Highness can also think the same." ”

Because it was not long after dark, most of the houses in Shangjing City were still brightly lit, and a small lantern hung outside the house, adding a faint light to the darkness, guiding those who had not returned home to follow the candle flame home.

Looking down from a high place, it looks like a few stars hanging in the night sky, which can inexplicably make people fascinated.

Qi Changrong's clear eyes gradually became blurred, a cool breeze blew past her ears, and the broken hair on her sideburns met her long eyelashes, making her squint unconsciously.

It's a painting when you look up, and it's a painting when you look down.

A painting of heaven, a painting of the world.

Qi Changrong didn't say anything for a long time, quietly enjoying the silence of this moment.

Her originally restless heart was also strangely soothed.

No more restless than before.

After a while, Junchen stood next to her and watched the bustling Shangjing City with her.

Because it is still in the filial piety period of Concubine Qin, although the people do not have to keep filial piety, in order to show their respect for the prince of the East Palace, many places have stopped all kinds of entertainment.

Yes, at this time, Shangjing City does not look as usual.

In the past, it could be more lively.

"Is Your Highness in a better mood?"

Junchen took a deep breath and felt the coolness in the air.

Qi Changrong nodded, with a faint relief in his eyes: "Compared to before, it is much better." ”

"General, you know what? In fact, I am not a qualified child, and my mother is behind many things. ”

At that time, she always felt that there was always a priority for things.

The most important thing must be solved first, and she can do more in the rest of the time.

Filial......

It's even more at the back of the line.

So much so that now, when he suddenly knew that Concubine Qin had passed away, and she no longer had the opportunity to be a filial daughter, Qi Changrong's heart suddenly appeared blank, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

This was something that would never have happened to her before.

You can imagine how hard she was hit.

Junchen didn't know what to say.

The relationship between the prince of the East Palace and Concubine Qin, he has actually only heard about it.

I only know that for some special reason, these two were separated a long time ago.

Qi Changrong was brought up by Emperor Jin An.

And Concubine Qin Niangniang was trapped in the harem, and the mother and daughter rarely met.

It stands to reason that such two people must not have much affection.

However, at this moment, Junchen couldn't help but overturn his previous speculation.

Seeing Qi Changrong like this, it doesn't look like he doesn't care about Concubine Qin,

If you don't care, you won't suffer.

"It's Lone's mistake, Lone thinks that everything is under Lone's control, but forgets that people's hearts are the most incomprehensible."

After Qi Changrong paused, he continued: "For the mother concubine, Zeng Gu has always thought that she only needs to be given a place to live and let her draw the ground as a prison, so that she can be guaranteed to have no worries for the rest of her life. ”

Therefore, she has never said anything about Emperor Jin An's decades-long captivity, because only in this way can she protect her secret without hurting her mother.

In the past, the people of the Jun family were disdainful of Emperor Jin An.

But since he knew Qi Changrong's true identity, some incomprehensible facts were completely understood.

At least, this emperor is not really ruthless.

If it was ruthless, it would have been possible to directly kill Concubine Qin more than ten years ago, instead of dragging it to today, when Concubine Qin was threatened by thieves, Concubine Qin chose to keep it secret.

Junchen thought for a while and said, "Maybe in Concubine Qin's heart, you and the emperor have done a good job, and she has never blamed you." ”

"Lone knows." Qi Changrong's voice was very soft, so light that it seemed that a gust of wind could blow it away: "But Gu knows that being locked up in Xingqing Palace, the mother concubine is not happy, and as a child, Gu is not qualified." ”

The reason why he alienated his mother was to protect his mother and protect himself.

However, this protection eventually becomes a confinement from which one cannot escape, and at the same time, traps oneself in this place, even if it is reduced to bones.

Qi Changrong felt a sadness in his heart.

Seeing this, Jun Chen paused and said seriously: "As a child, maybe His Highness is unqualified, but as the prince of a country, there is no one more qualified than His Highness." ”

"Your Highness, you are a smart person, you should know the truth that you can't have both fish and bear's paws, why should you have trouble with yourself here?"

A wise person will not trap himself in a certain past.

As long as you can see it, you will have no worries.

Inexplicably, Qi Changrong suddenly had a question in her heart, she looked at Jun Chen and asked, "In the general's heart, what kind of person is Lone?" ”

"Resolute."

Jun Chen immediately spit out two words, with a faint smile in his voice, which was blown away by the wind: "No matter when and where, His Highness knows very well what he should do." ”

Have the courage to move forward.

There is no cowardice in looking ahead and looking backwards.

After hearing this, the sadness in Qi Changrong's eyes became shallow, and he suddenly said: "Yes, if you want to accomplish something, you must bear the loss of something. ”

Thinking of this, Qi Changrong was no longer entangled.

She took a long breath and let the cold wind of the night penetrate into her chest, making her whole body cold from the soles of her feet to her heart, and she really woke up.

Jun Chen breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that Your Highness can keep Qingming as always." ”

He knew too well what kind of character Qi Changrong was.

Blindly comforting her does not achieve the best effect, only telling her that the matter has come to this point, and what she should do is not to get stuck in the memories of the past, but to continue to do what she should do.

After all, ninety-nine steps have been taken, and in the end, there is only one step left.

Can't help but go.

The sorrow in her heart was thrown aside, and Qi Changrong turned back into the prince Changrong who seemed to be unable to enter her heart at any time.

After a night's rest in the King's Mansion, everything is back on track.

In the early morning of the second day, because the people in the downtown area announced that Qi Changrong, the prince of the East Palace, had been killed outside, many courtiers who were originally in a neutral position fell to Jiang Bowen's side, and asked for his life in a gossipy letter, wanting Emperor Jin An to establish the little prince of the harem as the new prince as soon as possible.

In this way, Emperor Jin An faced the pressure of half of the ministers of the court.
