The thin shoulder bones of the abandonment made me feel a little distressed, and I withdrew my hand vigorously, unwilling to lean on his shoulder.

A trace of nervousness flashed in Yan Qizhi's eyes, and he looked at me directly, and when he saw that I was silent, he said again: "An'an, for a lifetime!" ”

The gloom and urgency in his eyes seemed to pounce on me and crush me under me and circle me up if I didn't agree.

I shook my head slowly, didn't speak, twisted my head, looked at the window, put my hands on my lap, distanced myself from him, and looked out through the waving curtains.

On a snowy day, the pawn traders in Fengtian in the capital have never been absent and worked hard to support their families.

Like them, from the day my father died, I took up the burden and worked hard to keep my younger siblings alive.

Relying on others, one's own biological mother is unreliable, and how credible are others?

How can a thin shoulder, a person's shoulder, bear me for the rest of my life?

Seeing that I was silent, I did not speak again, and a pair of eyes seemed to be staring at the prey, and locked me until the palace got out of the carriage.

The snow falling in the palace was cleaned by the palace people, and the blood stains on the ground were also washed clean.

On the wet palace road, a thin layer of ice accumulated, creaking when stepping on it, and slipping under the feet.

"Princess, be careful!"

Wei Changfeng reached out to help me, and a trace of distress quickly flashed in his eyes.

Before I could react, how could I see the distressed look in his eyes, Yan Qizhi grabbed my hand, like a wolf that had been robbed of food, grinning at Wei Changfeng with fierce eyes.

Wei Changfeng's expression tightened, afraid that I would be hurt, so he made a move against the words, I stretched out my hand to block, "He's just a child, Wei Duwei doesn't have to deal with a child." ”

"I'm an adult, not a child!" The voice of the abandonment was muffled, and the milk fiercely corrected me with a trace of grievance: "I can hold An An, and I won't let An An wrestle." ”

My hand obviously couldn't wrap my hand and was still trying to wrap it, I smiled, with my own imperceptible connivance: "Yes, you are an adult, don't be so reckless next time, Wei Duwei is strong in martial arts, if he is injured by mistake, it will not be good." ”

I comforted him softly, and the distressed look that flashed in Wei Changfeng's eyes before was probably because I was dazzled by a mistake.

"I'm also very powerful......"

Before the words were finished, Yefang hurried over, and before the person arrived: "Princess, something is wrong." ”

Yefang panicked, so I hurriedly broke free of the abandoned hand and met her: "What's wrong?" ”

Ye Fang curtsied and said: "There is news from the Fengtian Palace, the emperor is angry, and the emperor's eldest grandson has been punished to kneel outside. ”

My face changed suddenly, and I walked away, and as I walked, I hurriedly turned around and followed my Ye Fang, and asked, "The emperor's eldest grandson was punished to kneel outside, what about the Taifu?" ”

Ye Fang said: "Taifu is in the Fengtian Palace, the emperor is angry, no one dares to approach, I don't know what happened." ”

Hearing this, I thought of the grandfather's speculation that the emperor's grandfather might have to change the prince, and on the one hand, he had no bottom in his heart, and on the other hand, he was desperately thinking about how to let Xiao Ziwang escape the punishment of the emperor's grandfather without disappointing him.

When I came to the outside of the Fengtian Temple, I had just run halfway up the steps with my skirt, and the fragments of the cup jumped down from it.

My heart shuddered, and I instantly pulled Yan Zhi, who was following me, without letting the debris jump in his face.

He tensed up, stepped forward, and obviously did not have my tall body, and entered the state and generally blocked in front of me.

I stopped on my feet, and looked back at the debris that had collapsed down the steps, no longer going up the ladder.

Seeing me stop, Yefang said eagerly, "Princess, why did you stop?" Why don't we go up and have a look? ”

I took a step back and went down a step, I stared at the ice cone on the eaves of the Fengtian Temple, and said half-loudly: "Don't go, it's because I think it's bad, I shouldn't come to the Fengtian Palace, but I should go to Chaohua Palace." ”

"Zhaohua Palace is Concubine De's residence, Concubine De has been sick for a long time and has not left the palace, please say hello to the queen, the princess is now in the past, and she may not be able to see Concubine De." Ye Fang said with puzzlement: "If the princess goes, she will only hit a wall, and she will not be able to save the emperor's eldest grandson." ”

"Of course I know, go down first!" I lowered my eyes as I spoke, and at some point my body that stood in front of me turned around and stared at my face.

The corners of my mouth slowly hooked, and he was stunned when he saw my smile, and hurriedly lowered his head, the tips of his ears red.

After retreating down the steps, I hooked my finger to Yefang, Yefang lowered her head and leaned over, I whispered a few times to her, her eyes lit up instantly, and she bowed and said, "Slave and maid, let's do it, the princess is waiting here." ”

I bowed my head slightly, let Wei Changfeng leave, and stood in a place with a wide field of vision, I looked at the Fengtian Temple, and Yan Qizhi stared at me at my side.

About a quarter of an hour, Concubine De, the mother of the fifth uncle of the King of Qi, the owner of Zhaohua Palace, hurried to the Fengtian Hall with the palace people full of panic and nervousness.

I put the token belonging to the fifth uncle's dispatch of the red-armored and red-clothed army in the palm of my hand, and said: "The slave maid found someone to say, Concubine De didn't believe it before, and when she saw the token of King Qi, she believed that King Qi had not been summoned to Beijing." ”

"Has she ever been to see King Qi?" I asked faintly, staring at the Fengtian Palace, my ears pricked up, since Concubine De was crowned king by the fifth uncle, her request to go to the fifth uncle's fiefdom several times was rejected by the emperor's grandfather.

After that, his body was not as good as day by day, and he couldn't even get up in the morning and dusk for the emperor's grandmother on weekdays.

Yefang replied to me respectfully: "Concubine De Niangniang didn't go to see King Qi, but she has already sent someone to investigate, and the place where King Qi and King Jin and King Yan are imprisoned is heavily guarded, as long as you go, you can detect that something is wrong!" ”

I rubbed the token carefully: "Then send someone out of the palace to inform the seventh uncle's grandfather's family, first, to test whether they know that the seventh uncle has entered the city, and second, to see if they will die for the seventh uncle." ”

Yefang got my order and asked in a wordless manner, "Don't you need to inform Lin Zhaoyi, the mother of the Jin Dynasty?" Instead, he directly informed his maternal grandfather's family, would they take the lead in saving King Jin outside? ”

"Lin Zhaoyi doesn't need us to inform her, Concubine De will personally go into battle to inform Lin Zhaoyi for the fifth uncle, and then we just need to fan the flames on the side." My eyes lit up as I spoke, and when I saw Xiao Ziwang being supported by Xu Chengen, his face sank: "Do as I say, no need to ask more." ”

"No!"

The night answered the voice and retreated.

I glanced at Dong Chu and Xia Shuang, and the two of them immediately went up the steps to help Xiao Ziwang down.

Xu Chengen stood on the top of the high steps, bowed to me, waved his hand, turned around and left tremblingly.

Xiao Ziwang was taken back to the Prince's East Palace by me, but I didn't ask, he was the first to speak, with indignation in his tone: "Eldest sister, the country is light, the people are important, the blood is thicker than water, and the family is like the people, do you think this statement is wrong?" ”

I frowned slightly: "Grandfather Huang asked you to invite the Taifu over, is it the Jiangshan Sheji that you are discussing, or is the blood thicker than the water?" ”

"What's the difference?" Xiao Ziwang walked to the stove with burning hot coals, stretched out his hand and roasted it on the stove: "I just want to ask the eldest sister, blood is thicker than water, and family affection is like being close to the people, what's wrong?" ”

"What's wrong with you?" I asked him rhetorically, and my voice involuntarily raised: "Do you think that the imperial grandfather is unreasonable and makes you kneel outside the Fengtian Hall for no reason?" ”

"I didn't mean that!" Xiao Ziwang rubbed his hot hands against each other, and said weakly with sadness: "Ziwang just feels that flesh and blood affection is the most difficult thing to give up, as a family, they should love each other, not like today, the emperor's grandfather almost killed them." ”

No wonder the emperor's grandfather is angry, he has such a weak temperament, regardless of the appearance of caring about family affection everywhere, it is me, and he will also be angry.

The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, no matter how much family affection is flesh and blood, as a monarch, he must have the courage to suppress the Quartet, and he must have the indifference and ruthlessness to cut off the flesh and blood affection.

I suppressed the fire in my heart and said slowly: "Ziwang is a smart child, you should understand the true meaning of the four words Jiangshan Sheji, before the New Year, think about this problem in the Prince's East Palace, if the imperial grandfather does not call you, you will not go anywhere." ”

Xiao Ziwang frowned when he heard my words, and said with a hint of anger at me: "Eldest sister, blood is thicker than water, I can't let the emperor's grandfather kill the fourth uncle, the fifth uncle and the seventh uncle regardless of family ethics!" ”
