Chapter 1 The Little Princess of the Cold Courtyard

Next Chapter

Gong Jiuwei has known since she can remember that she is not loved by her mother, and she seems to have never seen her father.

I heard the little palace ladies say that the emperor is not greedy for the harem, and is a good emperor who is diligent and loves the people. Jiuyang's mother concubine Zhang Defei was originally a concubine who was accepted into the palace when His Majesty did not ascend the throne, because of her long qualifications, she gave birth to nine princesses for Her Majesty, and she was once a concubine after entering the palace.

It is said that as a princess, she should have been pampered since she was a child, and she should have been cultivated as a beautiful girl in the sky, but Jiu Yan has been raised in the palace since she was four years old, and she has never participated in the palace banquet every year.

In the eleventh year of Xuanyuan, when the prime minister Liu Jianglin of the dynasty, he asked His Majesty to welcome the nine princesses back to the palace to congratulate the emperor on his twenty-eighth birthday, and the nine princesses were twelve years old, and three years later was the year of the curtain.

It has been ten days since he received the holy decree, and Jiu Yan is sitting on the rockery by the pond, and it is only now that he will accept the fact that he will return to the palace in half a month.

It is said that it is to return to the palace, but it is better to say that it is to enter the palace. Life in the palace before the age of four, Jiu Yang basically has no memory, since he has memory, it is the rockery pond and Jiuqu back bridge of this palace.

As an unfavored princess, she was left in the palace before she could remember, although her life was not honorable and rich, but no one was particularly embarrassed.

Looking at the grass and trees, mountains and rivers in the palace, the little person felt complicated for the first time, and he didn't know whether the front was rich and quiet, or the tiger's den in Longtan.

Although this palace is also a royal palace, but the Son of Heaven is very lively when he drives, and when the Son of Heaven goes, there are many people left, and there are only a few palace maids and eunuchs on duty.

In the past eight years, the emperor also had a whim, and I heard that it was to welcome the envoys from the country, and set up a banquet in this palace.

At that time, Jiu Yang also secretly hid behind the rockery and peeked at the emperor taking the envoys to the garden, but he only caught a glimpse of the bright yellow horned dragon robe, but he didn't even see his face......

"Princess~, princess~, oops, why did you climb the rockery again? If Mama knows, she will count you down again, and Xiao Luo will be trained together! His thoughts were interrupted by this call of concern and a little resentment, Jiu Yan turned his head, and sure enough, he saw the little girl's red and fluttering little face, pinching her waist, standing at the bottom of the rockery and looking at herself with righteous indignation.

Over the years, the people closest to Jiu Yan are the maids Xiao Luo and Gu Mama, compared to the legendary mother and father, Xiao Luo and Gu Mama are more like their own family.

Thinking of this, Jiu Yang couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and jumped off the rockery with a smile.

"Mama is reluctant to really train me, Mama loves me the most, as long as you don't make a small report, who will know that I am here?"

"Oh, Xiao Luo won't make a small report, as long as the princess agrees to take me back to the palace with me, I, Xiao Luo, will swear to follow the princess even if I go to the knife mountain and the sea of fire in the future! Princess, you just promise Xiao Luo~".

Since this little girl made a holy decree in the palace, she has been cheering and shouting to return to the palace with Jiu Yan, but Jiu Xiao knows that the future is not clear, and he still has doubts in his heart, so he has not agreed.

"Okay, okay, let's go back to dinner first, you little girl thinks about this thing all day long." After speaking, Jiu Yan walked back listlessly, Xiao Luo chased after him, and the poolside path leaving the palace was filled with the laughter of the two girls.

。 The night stars are scarce, it is a clear and good night sky, but Jiu Yan is lying on the bed but tossing and turning.

"Knock knock~",

"Fen'er, are you asleep?"

"Mama come in, I haven't slept yet," he said, and hurriedly got up to welcome Mama in.

"It's even deeper, Mama is looking for Fen'er at this time, but what's the matter?" , Mama Gu looked at the girl in front of her, although she was still a little immature, but she had already shown a clear appearance, thinking that if she spent her life in this palace, she would be able to protect her for the rest of her life.

"Alas!" ,

"Why is Mama sighing? Although Mama is nominally just a slave, in her heart, she regards Mama as her elder, and Mama can say anything directly to Ma'er.

"Fen'er, do you know that you were born as a princess, why did you raise yourself in the palace since you were a child? That's it, today's old slave is entrusted to you, and he really has something to tell you. ”,

"Mama, please speak".

"Yan'er, there is still more than half a month, and you are about to enter the palace, so that you can always serve by your father's side and the princess. Mama hopes that no matter how your mother treats you, you don't resent her, she is your biological mother after all, and she may also have her troubles in many things. Hearing this, Jiu Shan was already slightly cold in her heart, I am afraid that what was waiting for her was not the reunion of mother and daughter who had been separated for many years, so she suppressed the sourness in her heart and said

"Mama, I know, I don't resent anyone, in the past eight years, I've not been doing well, Mama rest assured." Gu Mama looked at the twelve-year-old girl, and the stunned, lost but somewhat age-inappropriate mature and relieved eyes in her eyes couldn't help but feel distressed: "Mama knows that Shan'er is sensible, as soon as you go on this trip, let Xiao Luo accompany you, the deep palace compound, there is a person who has grown up together since childhood, and it is a person who can be trusted." Anyone you meet in the future must think twice and not trust it easily. ”

"Mama..., don't you go into the palace with Yan'er?" , Mama Gu took Jiu Yan's slightly cool little hand: "Mama is old, she has long been accustomed to the life of this palace, and the rules in the palace are strict, so Mama will not go." Yan'er is already a smart big girl, she always has to leave her grandmother and go to live in a broader world, can she always stay by my wife's side? ”。

Jiu Yan still cried after all, even if the teenage child pretended to be calm and relieved, in the face of the elders like relatives who were about to be separated from him, the sadness and sourness in his heart couldn't help but overflow his eyes, and slipped into the shoulders of his mother's heavy clothes full of soap.
