The soft morning light penetrated the glazed windows with ice flowers, and sprinkled on the carpet in the bedroom, by the soft tent, on the corner of the bed, and on the quilt.

Sun Yanling woke up and found that Sizhen was still asleep, so he habitually propped himself up and wanted to kiss her on the cheek.

As a result, he looked at Sizhen's expression and found that she seemed to be dreaming, the scene in the dream was not pleasant to think about, her expression kept changing, and there were sad, helpless, and gnashing of teeth mixed with various emotions mixed together......

Why do you suddenly have nightmares?

Sun Yanling couldn't help but pat Sizhen and tried to wake her up from her dream.

But Sizhen couldn't wake up.

She was trapped in her dreams and couldn't get out.

She smelled the strong smell of pine oil, and saw the old flames rising from the ground, and in the flames, her father and mother, were devoured little by little, burning into ashes...... The sound of the flames flickering up made her creepy, and every time it seemed to burn on her heart, there was a strong smell of burnt and bloody in the air, and the ground was full of charred broken wood remnants, and there was blood everywhere, and as soon as she stepped on it, the embroidered shoes were half dyed red, and the two feet went down, and the embroidered shoes could not distinguish the original color.

She returned to the year when she was eleven years old, 1652, the year of Renchen, the year of the dragon, the ninth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, the night of the fourth day of the seventh month, the night when the city of Guilin and the palace of Dingnan were on fire.

It's just that in the dream, she has grown up, she is wearing the court clothes of the princess of the Qing Dynasty, wearing embroidered shoes, looking around in the burned ruins, there is a disgusting bloody smell everywhere, there are rolling heads everywhere, broken arms, adults, children, men, women......

The faces with open eyes and dead eyes were familiar to her and unfamiliar to her.

Sizhen saw herself running in the thick fog, running between the heads and corpses, not caring about being afraid, not caring about vomiting.

She rummaged through them one by one.

No! No! Neither is this one!

She wants to find her father, she wants to find her mother.

Even if she dies, she will die with her relatives.

A pack of hungry dogs ran in, their eyes wide open as if no one was around, gnawing on the broken corpses.

Don't, don't!

Sizhen ran over, trying in vain to drive away the hungry dogs, but the hungry dogs were not afraid of her, and often as soon as she drove this side away, they ran to the other side, and continued to gnaw on the corpses on the ground, and some of the bold ones even let out a low roar in front of her, trying to snatch the corpses from her.

"Wang, Wang......" The voices of those hungry dogs were far and near in the thick fog, and their eyes were like lanterns, lanterns that would eat people, waiting for her to fall, and at any moment they would pounce on her and tear her to pieces.

I don't know how long it has been, Sizhen has not found the bodies of his father and mother.

She felt so scared and tired!

She began to cry, her head hurting like a hammer, and she fell to the ground in pain, and her liver and intestines were broken.

There was a burst of laughter and sarcastic laughter from the thick fog: "Kong Sizhen, your father Kong Youde stabbed his beloved wife and set himself on fire, why are you still embarrassed to live?" Why don't you die? You deserve to die, you should have died a long time ago, you go and die! ”

"Yes, yes, her father, mother, and brother are all dead, and she is embarrassed to be happy every night, how can she have a face? If I were her, I would have died a long time ago. ”

Later, the voices came together and surrounded her.

"Die, die, die! It's long overdue, you're supposed to die......"

No, it's not that she's greedy for life and afraid of death, she's just unwilling to die like this, she wants to take revenge, she doesn't want to live secretly, she wants to glorify the lintel of Kong's house, so she lives.

Sizhen fell to the ground, reddish-brown, fishy-smelling blood sludge staining her body.

This is the blood of more than 130 mouths of Dingnan Palace! This is the blood of her father and mother!

Sizhen couldn't help crying.

In the confusion of tears, she saw a head in the mist that looked like her father, and she crawled to the ground to hold the head in her hand, but was preempted by a hungry dog.

She staggered to her feet, and went after the hungry dog, trying to snatch her father's head back, but an arrow came at her and struck her in the heart.

"They're all dead, so go and die. What are you doing while you're still alive? How do you still have a face alive? Kong Youde betrayed my Ming Dynasty, and in the end, he was shot in the forehead by an arrow from my Ming army, and ended up setting fire to himself with his family, why are you still embarrassed to live? A figure came through the fog and sneered at her.

Sizhen couldn't see the man's face clearly, but she knew that that person was Li Dingguo, the king of Jin in the Southern Ming Dynasty.

Sizhen held down the arrow in his heart and begged Li Dingguo: "Please, please let me retrieve the bodies of my parents, and bury our family together, even if it falls into the stomach of a hungry dog, let our family be eaten by the same hungry dog." My father turned his back on the Ming court back then, but he was forced to be helpless, the Ming court was exhausted, and the way of heaven was like this. Even if you want to be loyal to that emperor, please grant my last wish. ”

Li Dingguo smiled desolate and cruelly, and he asked Sizhen: "Satisfy you?" So who will satisfy me? Fulfill the emperor's wishes? On the fourth day of the first month of this year, the emperor arrived in Yongchang, and guarded the Yulong Pass with Bai Wenxuan, the king of Gongchang, as a result, Bai Wenxuan was defeated, the emperor and I fled to Tengyue Prefecture, and the university scholar Fugang, Gong Yi, the head of the Ministry of Rites, Zheng Fengyuan, Hu Xian, and Chen Qixiang, the imperial history, all fled separately. After that, the emperor fled to Burma, I led the army back to Mengla alone, sent people to borrow soldiers in the car, this year, the people and horses in my camp have died of illness one after another, I am also full of pain, just waiting to borrow soldiers to save the emperor, I am satisfied with you, can you lend me soldiers to save the emperor? ”

"All of this is caused by you rebellious ministers and thieves, if it weren't for Kong Youde, Wu Sangui, and Hong Chengchou who betrayed my Daming, why did Daming fall into such a field?" Li Dingguo gritted his teeth and said: "If you die, and your father, your mother, your brother, and your Kong family will die together, your Kong family should end up like this!" Kong Youde betrayed the emperor, took refuge in Qinggou, and committed the great crime of punishing the nine clans, all of them deserve to die, and you should have died a long time ago! ”

Yes, Li Dingguo hates his father so much, he hates the Kong family so much, what is the use of begging him?

In this person's heart, her father betrayed the Ming Dynasty, which is equivalent to the crime of rebellion, and the Kong family deserves to die, so her father, mother and brother will fall into the field where there are no bones.

is this person, who hates her for losing her father, mother, brother, and all her relatives, and is lonely in this world......

Sizhen pulled out the arrow in her heart, and stabbed Li Dingguo with all her strength with hatred, and she was about to succeed, but she fell to the ground with a gentle push from Li Dingguo.

She threw herself to the ground, and when she saw her father, her mother, and her brother, they were an arm's length away from her, looking at her with wide eyes.

Life and death are separated, yin and yang have different paths!

Sizhen struggled to crawl over there, trying to hold them in his arms.

Just a palm's throw away, a foot stepped on her hand.

A pair of dark brocade boots embroidered with python patterns stepped on the back of her hand.

Sizhen lifted up, and she struggled to look at the man who was stepping on her condescendingly—

Li Dingguo——

Why?

Why?

Even if you are a loyal minister and a good general, even if you are loyal and courageous, but my father and mother have committed suicide and burned the house, isn't this enough? Isn't that enough? People die like lights out, why don't you let their bodies go?

She asked silently, raising her eyes.

He stomped her palm to death with an expressionless face, and said coldly: "Kong Youde is a thief of rebellious ministers, you are the daughter of rebellious ministers, you deserve to die." ”

No, she doesn't want to die, she wants revenge, she wants to glorify the lintel of the Kong family, she wants to take care of the Dingfan for her father, she wants to have a few children with Sun Yanling, and pass one to her brother's name, so that the incense of the Kong family will continue.

Sun Yanling, yes, Erlang, Erlang, where are you?

Save me! Save me!

"Chastity, chastity, wake up, wake up...... You're dreaming, wake up......"

Sizhen heard Sun Yanling's voice and was close at hand.

She put her mind at ease, by the way, she is still alive, she is dreaming, all this is just a dream, as long as she wakes up from the dream, she will not die, she can take revenge......

As long as she wakes up, wake up!

However, the foot that was on the back of her hand stepped on her neck, and her head slowly drooped.

In the dormitory, Sizhen lay lifeless on the bed, her face was pale, the corners of her mouth were tightly closed, her once ruddy lips were bruised, and there were black and red blood stains between her mouth and nose.

She's unconscious.

"Zhenzhen, Zhenzhen, what's wrong with you? ...... you wake up" Sun Yanling shouted in horror, without his usual composure, he shouted, "Someone, someone, come to the palace and ask for a doctor......

He didn't know what was going on, he was fine last night, why did he get up early in the morning and become like this?

Sun Yanling ordered people to wait for Sizhen in the princess's mansion, and those who came into contact with her from last night to this morning, as well as those people in the kitchen, except for a thrush and Mama Qin who were left to wait in front of her, all the rest were taken care of.

Except for these two loyal servants who lived and died with Sizhen, he didn't believe anyone.

Even Mama Du and Bailing, who were given by the Empress Dowager back then, were also imprisoned from the moment they found something unusual, Sun Yanling has been holding Sizhen's hand and never letting go for a moment, all orders were issued in the bedroom.

The thrush knelt in front of the bed, and kept wiping the black blood from Sizhen's mouth and nose with a clean handkerchief, and when the handkerchief was wet, he changed it again.

Although Thrush's hand holding the handkerchief was shaking, every time the blood came out, she wiped it away in time, so that it would not fall on the pillow or the bed.

Although there is not a lot of blood between Sizhen's mouth and nose, it has been flowing slowly, as if it will not stop, and she looks very scary when she is asleep.
