After the carriage left the city gate, it accelerated towards the official road, and the moment she left the gate of the Eastern Capital, Yu Ruyan had mixed feelings in her heart, both sour and uncomfortable, and a kind of relief after rebirth.

She lifted the curtain and looked at the towering walls of the Eastern Capital, with a bitter smile on her face.

After going around and around, she was going to get out of here......

She once thought that she was going to be by Mu Lingzhi's side for the rest of her life, and he also said that he would accompany her to the end in the rest of her life......

The oath is still there, but things are in vain!

The countryside is full of clusters of delicate mountain flowers, red and yellow, vibrant and lively. It's the twilight of spring, but how long is it summer, presumably the flower garden in the palace is already full of flowers, in a trance, she suddenly thought that she unconsciously came to Daliang for almost a year, but this short year, but it seems to have exhausted the time of her life......

The knife drove as fast as he could, not stopping for a moment, as if someone was chasing him behind him. In the carriage, Brother An asked Yu Ruyan worriedly: "Princess, are we really going back to Qi Kingdom?" ”

Xiaodao had also asked her the same question before, and Yu Ruyan replied helplessly: "Now that Wei and Wu are at war, the beacons are in flames, the world is in chaos, there are homeless people and bandits everywhere, and the people are fleeing out, how dare we go to die?" So, except for the country of Qi - we have nowhere to go. ”

Da Liang can't stay, Wei and Wu are at war, where else can she go except for Qi?

Brother An heard her say this, and nodded seriously, but when she thought of Yu Ruyan's current status, it was estimated that she would be embarrassed by more white eyes after she went back, and her heart began to ache, and she said in a daze: "Princess, if you return to the palace, the eldest princess, they will embarrass you again......

Brother An's worried Yu Ruyan had already thought that she knew that she had failed with her relatives and became a lowly military prostitute, she had been snubbed by her father and oppressed by other sisters, and now she returned to the palace with such an unbearable identity, and it is estimated that the future will be even more difficult.

A cold light flashed in her eyes, Yu Ruyan's expression was cold and firm, and she said coldly: "In the past, I always followed the teachings of my mother and was kind to others in everything, thinking that as long as I didn't deceive others, others would be kind to me." But after so much, from the palace of Qi to the palace of Daliang, I don't offend people, but people will offend me, just blindly retreating and dodging, just make people think that I am easy to bully, and treat me more and more. Oh, I used to read that Jade Pearl was my own sister, and I let them do everything, but I won't do it later, if they dare to offend me again, I'll be merciless! ”

When she said this, Yu Ruyan's face was indifferent, thinking of the indifference and injustice of her father to her since she was a child, and thinking of the bullying of her by her eldest sister Yu Mingzhu and other princesses, Yu Ruyan's heart was cold, and her eyes crossed the cold blade, and she said coldly: "More importantly, when I return to the palace this time, I not only want to know who is the real jade girl among the princesses, but also find out who is spreading rumors around to ruin my reputation!" ”

If it weren't for the Jade Girl, she wouldn't have been driven to Daliang by her father; If someone hadn't deliberately spread rumors to ruin her reputation, she wouldn't have ushered in her husband's cold arrow on the way to marriage, and her fate wouldn't have been so miserable!

She thought that she had been staying in the deep palace except for Putuo Temple, and outsiders had never even seen her face, so how could they know about her, so the rumors about those malicious and hurtful people must have been spread by the Qi Palace.

Why did they do this, they had already married away from the Qi country, why did they come to destroy her last hope?!

With her hands clenched into fists, Yu Ruyan tried her best to calm the hatred in her heart, closed her eyes and rested -

In the palace, she at least has Mu Lingzhi to rely on, but now that she is back in Qi Kingdom, her father never looks at her properly, and her mother is even more reluctant to live on her own, and there is no one to rely on, she not only has to protect herself, but also has to protect Brother An and Xiaodao around her, so she must fight with twelve spirits to face everything in the future!

After rushing away for more than half a month, he finally saw Kyoto, the capital of Qi State, and the knife raised his horsewhip and entered the city smoothly at the last moment when the city gate was closed.

After a year, when Yu Ruyan stood on the streets of Kyoto again, she felt a lot of emotion in her heart-

At this time last year, she was named Princess Heshuo to marry Liang, the day of the marriage, the father and the emperor in the Lian Guifei's Chunlan Palace has not gotten up, the mother can only send her to the palace gate because of her low status, and none of the other brothers and sisters came out to send her away, she sat alone in a beautiful sedan chair braving the scorching heat and walked through the long Chang'an Street in Kyoto, the streets were full of people watching the excitement, but everyone was strange in their mouths, and there were many discussions, saying why the princess married without a send-off?

Now that she had quietly returned, dressed plainly and wandering the streets, no one recognized that the gorgeous woman in front of them was actually their fifth princess, but because of her outstanding appearance, she would look at her twice, and then turn her head and forget.

Yu Ruyan led the knife Brother An to find an inn to live in, and rushed for half a month, the three of them were exhausted, and after washing, they lay down on the comfortable bed, and after a while, Brother An in the same room was already asleep, and Yu Ruyan was obviously so tired that she fell apart, but she didn't feel sleepy at all when she lay on the bed, staring at her eyes and thinking about what was in her heart, and couldn't fall asleep for a long time......

Early the next morning, Yu Ruyan left the knife in the inn to sleep for a while, took Brother An to breakfast without eating, changed into men's clothes, shook the folding fan to the most famous morning market in the capital, found a porridge shop with the most people and sat down, called two bowls of millet porridge plus a few spring rolls, brewed a pot of new tea, sat in the pile of people and ate slowly.

Brother An thought that she would lead them back to the palace early in the morning, but she didn't expect Yu Ruyan to have no intention of returning to the palace at all, sitting leisurely in the crowd drinking porridge and eating tea, listening to the people around chatting and snorting, and there was no intention of leaving for a long time.

Brother An couldn't help but be a little anxious when he saw Yu Ruyan like this, and was about to open his mouth to urge her, but saw Yu Ruyan and said lightly: "Don't rush back to the palace first, I've been away from Kyoto for a whole year, and I don't know anything about Kyoto in this year. Take advantage of this rare time for you to relax and relax, besides, entering the palace so early, my father doesn't know that he has fallen asleep in that beauty's palace and hasn't gotten up, so don't be so anxious! ”

Hearing this, Brother An was stunned, but he understood what Yu Ruyan meant, and sat obediently and stopped urging.

It was already noon when she came out of the morning market, Yu Ruyan dressed up again, and led Brother An with a knife into the palace!

Everyone in the world knows that the love of the king of Qi for the beauty is far greater than the thousands of miles left to him by his ancestors.

Fortunately, there are many beauties in his harem, and more beauties have given birth to princesses, and over the years, thanks to his daughter, he can exchange his relatives for several years of peace in the Qi country.

Yu Ruyan suddenly returned to the palace, which frightened everyone in the palace, and the eunuchs and palace maids were all frightened to avoid her when they saw her-

As early as a year ago, King Qi told everyone that it was the fifth princess Yu Ruyan who was killed by robbers on the way to her relatives, and everyone in the palace thought she was dead, but she didn't expect her to appear suddenly today, which really scared everyone.

Ignoring the frightened eyes of everyone, Yu Ruyan pulled a palace person to ask and learned that King Qi rested in Chunlan Palace last night, so he walked towards Concubine Lian's Chunlan Palace without squinting.

The face was calm and waveless, but there was a sneer in his heart, it seems that Concubine Lian is really pampered, how many years have passed, and her father is still very kind to her, and it is rare to favor a concubine for three months.

Chunlan Palace is the most magnificent and luxurious palace in the whole harem, carved beams and paintings, flower pavilions and warm pavilions are exquisite everywhere, and all kinds of luxury.

Yu Ruyan went all the way under the guidance of the palace people, and now the Chunlan Palace a year later is even more luxurious and exquisite than before.

Passing by the lotus pond, a radiant beauty came in the distance, dressed in a colorful silk shirt, and her face had seven or eight points of imagination with Yu Ruyan, but she wanted to compare with Yu Ruyan's restrained and cold, the expression on the woman's face was gentle and elegant, making people look like a spring breeze and her heart rippled, and she was really a beautiful woman with a national color and fragrance.

However, only Yu Ruyan knows what kind of hypocritical and vicious true face is behind her gentle and elegant.

This woman is none other than Yu Ruyan's mortal enemy, Jade Mingzhu, the eldest princess of Qi who is loved by thousands of people, and is also the beloved daughter of Concubine Lian.

Compared with other princesses who were taken away from their mother's side and brought up by their nurse and grandmother since childhood, Jade Mingzhu is different, she has stayed with Concubine Lian since she was a child, her mother has been favored for many years, and she is also the most popular among the princesses.

King Qi spoiled this pair of baby mother and daughter to the sky, so the entire Qi King Palace can also be said to be the world of their mother and daughter.

is also a princess, Yu Ruyan has suffered from snacks, but Yu Mingzhu is pampered, obviously among the sisters, the two of them look the most similar, but the eyes are different. But Yu Mingzhu hates her the most, maybe in her heart, the daughter born by a lowly palace girl has a face similar to her, which is simply an insult to her arrogant.

Moreover, what makes her hate even more is that Yu Ruyan is obviously full of wind and rain and hardships, but the sunrise and sunrise are more beautiful and moving every day, and the momentum is about to overshadow her, how can she not hate?

Yu Mingzhu was in a good mood and walked along the lotus pond, and suddenly saw the oncoming Yu Ruyan, her face was stagnant, and the look of surprise flashed in her glass-like eyes, but the next second she described that her face had returned to normal, smiled gently, but did not speak, waiting for Yu Ruyan to say hello to her first.

With a cold smile in her heart, Yu Ruyan quietly hooked the corners of her lips and said to the woman in front of her: "Hello Imperial Sister!" ”

With that, she walked straight past her.

"Actually, from the day you got married, I knew that you would definitely come back, so I still had people keep your Hibiscus Sakura Hall for you, but I didn't expect you to come back so soon!"

Yu Mingzhu's beautiful face shone in the sun, and she never called Yu Ruyan a sister, because in her heart, Yu Ruyan was not worthy of being her sister.

The meaning of her words was unclear, as if she expected Yu Ruyan to return to Qi again, which couldn't help but make Yu Ruyan feel stunned.

When her footsteps stopped, she turned around and looked at the woman in front of her with an elegant face, and said slowly: "The imperial sister's ability to anticipate things like a god is getting better and better, I don't know if this time I asked that immortal Taoist to help you calculate?" If Yunyi Dao is calculating, then I advise the imperial sister not to listen to it again, you forget, more than ten years ago, he made me an ominous person in a hexagram, and said that as long as I am here, I will definitely destroy the country. But after so many years, I am alive and well, the imperial sister is still alive, and the Qi country is still there, and it can be regarded as destroying the country, so it can be seen that the words of Daoist Yunyi can no longer be trusted. ”

She looked at the Jade Pearl in front of her fixedly, and the chill on her body made the Jade Pearl feel stunned.

Her good-looking brows almost jumped, she didn't expect that Yu Ruyan, who had always been submissive, would come back again, and her momentum and words were sharp.

The glass-like beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and Yu Mingzhu hooked her lips and sneered: "I haven't seen you for a year, but you have grown a lot of ability." Actually, in the days without you, this harem is really not very lively, and the sisters have a lot less fun, and they can't find anyone to have fun, but now it's good. ”

As soon as she heard the word 'pastime', the former oppression and humiliation came to her heart, and Yu Ruyan pressed the resentment in her heart and said coldly: "The imperial sister has been in the boudoir all the year round, and it is really boring. If I'm not mistaken, the royal sister is over eighteen years old, and I don't know when I will hear the good news about the royal sister's marriage? ”

If other people heard such words, they would probably be so angry that they jumped to their feet, but how could Yu Mingzhu's mind be comparable to ordinary people, she smiled slowly and said: "I, Yu Mingzhu, either don't marry, if I want to marry, I must marry the most outstanding man in the world, not that you can compare with your own chess pieces." ”

After speaking, she gently swung her willow waist and paced, as if muttering word by word: "Once married, married thousands of miles away, the husband does not know, and the lonely bed is cold." Oh, it's better not to marry like this! ”

After that, he didn't pay attention to Yu Ruyan anymore, and walked forward movingly.

Her words pierced into Yu Ruyan's heart like a sharp needle, everyone knows the sorrow of the princess, far away from her hometown and homeland to a completely strange place, the husband is tall or short, the temperament is good or bad, the person who shares the bed is completely strange, so strange that it makes people tremble!

However, Yu Ruyan was even more pathetic, and it was not a strange husband who greeted her, but a cold and piercing arrow......

When she came to the dormitory of Chunlan Palace, the palace people went in to help her pass the word, and it took a while for the palace to come out and lead her in. I saw that in the slightly dim side hall, King Qi was lying on the soft couch casually in a yellow civilian dress, but he didn't see the figure of Concubine Lian.

King Qi looked at Yu Ruyan who was kneeling in front of him, his face flashed with surprise, and after a while, his face was calm, and he didn't wait for Yu Ruyan to speak, and he said coldly: "Why don't you stay in Daliang and run back?" Do you know that you are already a person of the Great Liang when you marry into the Great Liang! ”

Yu Ruyan, who was kneeling on the ground, felt cold in her heart, she raised her head and looked fixedly at the man in front of her who called herself 'Father', and said with a wry smile: "Father, don't you know anything about what happened to you and your relatives a year ago?" ”

King Qi's face changed slightly when he heard this-

He had already heard about the events of that day, but he broke his promise and deceived Da Liang, so after the accident with his relatives, he didn't dare to reason with Da Liang at all, and he didn't send someone to find Yu Ruyan, just because Concubine Lian said something in his ear at that time-

It's best if such ominous people are gone, so as to save the country and the people!

He said coldly: "I know what, I don't know what, you are the princess of Heqin, your feet have set foot on the land of Liang Kingdom, you are the person of Daliang, what does your life and death have to do with my Daqi?" ”

The cold-blooded ruthlessness of the King of Qi made Yu Ruyan's heart sad, she looked at the father in front of her fixedly, and said word by word: "My daughter desperately saved the thirty-six dowry maids, just hoping that they would notify their father to come to save me after they fled back to Qi, but my daughter waited day after day, and did not see a single soldier sent by her father." Father, it was you who said to me at the beginning, I must focus on the overall situation, for the sake of the country, for the sake of the people and subjects, and sacrifice me alone to make peace, but my father forgot, I am also one of your subjects, why did my father and emperor not care about me when I was killed? Even now, I still say that my life and death have nothing to do with Daqi! ”

Sadness came from it, Yu Ruyan couldn't help laughing, but the smile was more ugly than crying, and said: "I sacrificed myself and my relatives for the throne of my father for the sake of Daqi, but I didn't expect to wait for such a sentence." Oh, don't forget, my surname is Yu, the national surname of Daqi, and I am your biological daughter like Jade Mingzhu. ”

Yu Ruyan's questioning made Qi Guo's whole body shocked, and he couldn't believe that his most unrespected daughter dared to say such a thing in front of him!

He couldn't help but look at Yu Ruyan again, only to see her kneeling there, her thin body straight, the cold in her shining eyes, and her expression was firm and resolute, but such a description was something he had never seen before.

King Qi's cold face showed a trace of unbearability, when treating this fifth daughter, his heart was indeed too biased, he never gave her a trace of fatherly love, and he never put it in his eyes when he watched her being bullied for so many years, just because she was born without tears, and the respected Yunyi Daoist believed that she was an ominous person, and she would definitely bring disaster to the Qi country in the future, so since then, he has been disgusted with her......

Now seeing her come back from Daliang with her death, King Qi felt a little unbearable in his heart, and said in a softened tone: "Forget it, don't mention the past, since you come back, live a good life, no matter what you have experienced in Daliang, your father will still treat you as the fifth princess......"

"Father, I just want to ask, among the many sisters, who is the real jade girl?" Yu Ruyan interrupted King Qi's words and asked eagerly.

When she returned to the palace of Qi Kingdom, she wanted to know who the real jade girl was?

King Qi's face was shocked, and his face, which had just eased up for half a minute, turned cold again, and Yu Ruyan saw it, and hurriedly asked, "The jade girl is the eldest sister Jade Mingzhu?" ”

However, before King Qi could answer, a cry for help came from outside the hall-

"Princess, save me!"

The voice came out of Brother An, Yu Ruyan was instantly stupid, looked up at his father with a cruel and indifferent face in disbelief, and the next moment he got up and ran outside the hall.

The scene in front of her made her heart tighten suddenly-

I saw that the palace people of Chunlan Palace were holding ropes to strangle Brother An's neck, and Concubine Lian was standing leisurely on the high steps under the eaves of the palace, seeing Yu Ruyan running out in a panic and not looking at it, her voice was charming with a piercing coldness: "Hurry up with your hands and feet, don't disturb the emperor's rest." ”

The palace people got the order of the concubine, and they didn't stop in their hands, and tightened the rope in their hands.

Yu Ruyan rushed up and punched and kicked the two palace people who were pulling the rope, but the palace people got the order of the concubine, and let Yu Ruyan beat, without blinking her eyes, only pulling the rope in her hand hard.

Yu Ruyan gritted her teeth with hatred, and she trembled with anger, but the knife went back to Jinying Courtyard first, and she couldn't shake the two palace people at all, and under the instructions of Concubine Lian, the other palace people were ready to step forward to stop Yu Ruyan.

Seeing that Brother An's face was getting purple, and Yuruyan's eyes were full of murderous aura, she pulled off the hairpin on her head and stabbed the sharp hairpin tip into the neck of a palace person......

Blood splashed, and the palace man fell to the side with a miserable scream, and the strength in his hand was naturally loosened, while the other palace man saw Yu Ruyan's fierce and crazy appearance, and his eyes showed fear, but he didn't dare to loosen the rope in his hand without the order of the concubine.

Yu Ruyan's eyes were red, and when she saw that the palace people were still strangling Brother An, she didn't blink her eyes and stabbed the hairpin in her hand towards the palace people's necks-

"Stop!"

With a broken drink, the palace people and Yu Ruyan both stopped their movements, but it was the King of Qi in the hall who was alarmed by the noise outside, and couldn't help but walk out anymore.

He looked at Yu Ruyan with red eyes in shock, only to see that she was holding the bloody hairpin in her hand, and she didn't even let go of the rope around Brother An's neck, and her whole body trembled to the point that she couldn't do it, but the expression on her face was extremely terrifying.

The palace people who were pierced in the neck by her were killed, and Concubine Lian didn't have time to complain to King Qi that Yu Ruyan was killing people in her palace, she had already shouted at Concubine Lian: "Why did you kill Brother An?" ”

Her eyes seemed to be dripping blood, regardless of the presence of King Qi, she glared at Concubine Lian viciously, eager to stab her neck with the hairpin in her hand.

"I told her to kill her! Why, do you want to kill me together? ”

Looking at Yu Ruyan's bloodthirsty appearance, King Qi snorted coldly, his face was cold.

Hearing this, Yu Ruyan looked at King Qi in disbelief, and said in a daze: "Why did my father do this? ”

I don't know when, Yu Mingzhu also came to the side hall, looking at Yu Ruyan with an ignorant look, her heart was cold, but she said indifferently: "Everything my father does is for you." You rescued the thirty-six dowry girls and let them go back to the palace. But have you ever thought that you are not saving them, but pushing them to their deaths! ”

Jade Mingzhu's glass-like eyes shone coldly in the sun, looking at Yu Ruyan's more confused appearance, and said slowly: "You haven't thought about it."

, your dignified princess of Qi became a military prostitute, which is a great shame for Qi country. One of the thirty-six girls revealed half a point, does Qi still have the face to survive among the four countries? Therefore, in order to protect you, my father has no choice but to kill them all! ”

Her pointed nails lightly pointed at Brother An, who had not yet penetrated the ground, and wrote lightly: "Just in case, she will also die!" ”
