How much do you know about the flowers in your dreams (3)
(Girls' Literature)
The imperial concubine is sick. Originally, I just thought it was a small wind chill. But it didn't take long for him to vomit blood. I think the imperial concubine's illness is very strange. This intuition is very strong. I don't know why I'm so sure. People in the palace are rumored to have a serious illness because the imperial concubine drank a bowl of medicinal soup sent by Concubine Chu.
On the day when the imperial concubine was seriously ill. Concubine Chu was beaten into the cold palace by her father. and abolished the concubine. When I heard the news. There was no joy in my heart. On the contrary, there is an indescribable sadness. I didn't tell anyone. Instead, he secretly ran to the cold palace. When I saw that her body was covered with scars from whipping. I think my father must have hated her so much. Otherwise, how could he have made such a heavy hand?
The reason why the cold palace is called the cold palace. It's because it's so cold. The dilapidated palace and the howling wind make it especially terrifying at night.
I was just going to take a peek at her. But later she found out. She was tied to a pillar. There is always a smile on the corner of his mouth. His dark eyes looked at me brightly. It's much more beautiful than the stars in the sky.
Those eyes seem to have a very great attraction. It drew all my attention. It made me want to get close to her unconsciously.
"Why are you here?" I heard her ask softly.
"......" I didn't answer her. Instead, the girl stroked the scars on her body. The wounds as thick as earthworms were terrifying. I guess she must have been in a lot of pain.
"Forget it. I know you hate me. "And then. She sighed again. That tone made me want to go up and hug her. Trying to soothe her wounded heart.
But I didn't. I just gave her a cold look. And he left. Didn't take a few steps. A crisp song rang out behind him. It was the first time I had heard such a beautiful singing voice. I don't know what tune she was singing. All in all, it's very good. She's such a weirdo. I thought quietly. This song has been accompanying me out of the cold palace. Snow was lying in the room waiting for me.
Bai Xue is the cat that my father gave me. Probably born with me. It's always coming to me when I'm unhappy. Then he rubbed me gently with his soft body. to show comfort.
I walked over. Gently picked up the snow. Resting his chin on its head, he gently asked, "Kitten." I obviously hate Concubine Chu very much. And why when I saw her covered in wounds? There will be a dull pain in my heart again. ”
"Meow~". It was like answering my question. The snow rubbed lightly against my chin. Nestled in my arms again and did not move.
Such gloomy days lasted until half a month later. The imperial concubine is finally still an immortal. I remember that day it was raining heavily. The roar of lightning and thunder shook the earth. The sky was dark and oppressive. It looks like it could fall off at any moment. It's terrifying.
I sat in the room. Watch the bean-sized raindrops crash on the leaves in front of the window. The thunderclap made people even more upset. It didn't take long. Suddenly, I heard a heavy bell ringing from afar. The heart slammed into a screech. Immediately rushed out the door.
The wind carried the rain that was rushing and drenched my clothes and hair. I didn't bother to wipe the rain off my face. An arrow rushed to the queen mother's bedroom. And he saw the queen mother sitting alone in the house. She was dressed very charmingly. He was still muttering, "Finally dead." Girls' literature is finally dead. ”
I was horrified by all this scene. Stand still and don't dare to move. Until she turned around and found me. I finally burst out crying.
I've never seen a queen mother so crazy. I think she must have been stimulated. I thought she would come over and comfort me. I didn't expect her to just sit in her chair and keep laughing at me. The laughter mingled with the sound of rain outside. It's very weird.
Just as we are at a stalemate. Qiu Xia hurried in from outside the door. She didn't have time to say hello to us. just said loudly: "The imperial concubine is dead." ”
。 Tears were already streaming from the corners of his eyes. The expression on his face was also very distorted. I can't tell if I'm laughing or crying.
I still stood still, not daring to move. The queen mother must have laughed too. The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became very strange.
After all, the queen mother did not attend the funeral of the imperial concubine. And I was taken to the Dragon Palace by Qiu Xia. The original golden Dragon Palace has turned into a plain white. I saw my father standing with his hands in his hands. In the wind and rain, his figure seems to be depressed.
"Father—" I called softly. He glanced back at me. Beckon me over.
I lifted my dress and walked on the slippery road step by step. until they came close to him. He didn't reach out to me. Girls' literature is updated as soon as possible
"Salute her." The commanding tone made my heart beat fast in an instant. When my father scolded me before. It's just harmonious. But now his whole face was covered with gloom. It's frighteningly tight.
I don't have anything to do with this imperial concubine. What's more, she's dead now. How could I, as the princess of Qiyue, salute a dead man? I don't understand. But I didn't dare to ask my father. You can only do what you say.
After the ceremony. I was taken aside by Qiuxia. I saw that many harem concubines were already kneeling on both sides of the long corridor. I know this is my father's order. And such a ritual system is only available when the emperor or empress dies.
。 I didn't see Concubine Chu. I think my father will probably use her to sacrifice to the imperial concubine. After all, she killed this man.
But I was wrong. It didn't take long. I saw a figure gradually appear in the rain and mist. She didn't have an umbrella. His body was also completely soaked in the rain. When she approached. I realized that she had a lot of stuff in her arms. It was all soaked with rain.
The person who came was Concubine Chu. She was still wearing that tattered dress. When she walked into the temple. He did not salute his father. The father did not turn around or get angry. I saw Concubine Chu put down the things in her arms one by one. She took the brazier. Slowly open a picture scroll that is about to turn into a papier-mâché. Put it in a pot again. Girls' literature was updated for the first time, and the majestic flame suddenly swept the entire picture scroll. until they all are reduced to ashes.
No one in the temple dared to stop it. And my father acted as if he didn't know anything. Just keep your eyes fixed on the coffin.
I didn't dare to speak out. But in my heart, I became more and more curious about this Concubine Chu. Wouldn't you be afraid of being killed? I thought to myself.
Until the things in Concubine Chu's arms turned into black ashes one by one. No one has said a word. I saw Concubine Chu kowtow three times against the coffin. Then he didn't even look at his father. Turning his head into the rain.
"Boom" with a loud bang. I shuddered at the loud noise. This was followed by another loud roar. It exploded in the sky above the Dragon Palace.
In the month after the death of the imperial concubine. My father locked himself in the Dragon Palace every day except for the court. I haven't even seen it. I listened to the little eunuch on duty. My father only drank some porridge every day. The whole person was haggard. I think the death of the imperial concubine must have dealt a big blow to my father. He really loved her miserably. This is also the last thing an emperor should have.
Soon after the imperial concubine went. But my father suddenly summoned me to the Dragon Palace. I haven't seen him for over a month. At this time, I was naturally happy and tight. When I jumped and ran in. I saw that the shadow under his eyes deepened. Deep-set eye sockets. He seems to be very unmotivated.
"Li'er. Come here. "My father beckoned to me. I immediately rushed into his arms. There is always a faint scent of sandalwood on his body. It smells great.
From that day on. My father seems to have returned to his old life. It's just that the smile is getting smaller and smaller. Although he didn't say it. But I can still see that he has a very serious heart. Whenever I ask. He always started with "I'll understand when I grow up." Such words prevaricate me.
I don't know how old he said he would be when he grew up. I just want to grow up fast. In this way, I can help my father share some of the burden.
In the days to come. My father would spend time with me every day. The rest of the time is spent wandering around the harem. He seems to have regained his old style. Every day, I would stay with a different concubine. But he never came to the queen mother.
The queen mother's sighs also became more and more frequent. Even if she doesn't say anything. But I knew that her heart must be extremely bitter. Concubine Chu, who is good with her mother, has never come back since the imperial concubine went. The Phoenix Hall of Nuoda became even more deserted.
In order to make the queen mother happy. Every day, I try to find some new things to put in front of the queen mother. Hope to see her smile.
But she always looked cold to me. In desperation. I had to excuse myself that I wasn't feeling well. When you want to go out for a walk. dragged the queen mother to the royal garden.
The sun is shining. Colorful butterflies flying. It's a great weather for butterflies. I excitedly pointed to the butterflies flying up and down in the garden. There was a lot of cheering.
The queen mother saw that I liked butterflies so much. So I ordered someone to catch one for me. Just when I was having a great time. I saw that in the gazebo not far away, my father was hugging two concubines on his left and right. I turned my head to look at my mother. I saw that her face instantly turned pale. Unnaturally looked away.
I wanted to take the queen into the gazebo. But then a man came from the other side. Standing in front of us.
I heard her call the queen mother softly, "Sister." "After. The eyes kept falling on me.
The person who came here is really the concubine Chu I hate the most.
