Zhao Zhen thought that her efforts to hold Zhao Yan to such a height were already the limit, but it turned out that he still underestimated her.

When Wen Zhiluo was thirteen years old, she orchestrated a turmoil that completely changed the situation of the dynasty and, so to speak, the fate of all of them.

In the autumn hunt of September, the emperor took several of his favorite princes with him, including Zhao Shen and Zhao Yan. On the night of the third day of the autumn hunt, the palace suddenly burst into flames and shouted endlessly. Zhao Zhen woke up from his dream and held his sword in the Cuiyun Palace. At this time, someone knocked on the door of the Cuiyun Palace.

This man was a small boss in the guard, and he had a very good personal relationship with him, and as soon as he came, he told him that he was the prince's rebellion, but he would not hurt the innocent, so please rest assured.

Zhao Zhen was suspicious at that time, Zhao Shen, the crown prince, sat as stable as a rock, how could he not think so much about suddenly rebelling?

It was not only Miyagi that had an accident that night, but also Nishiyama, where the hunt occurred. I heard that the prince's men surrounded Xishan, and the situation was critical. Fortunately, the garrison arrived in time to bring the situation under control. Later, it was found out that the matter was related to the crown prince, and the emperor was furious, removed Zhao Shen from the position of crown prince, and imprisoned him in the Zongren Mansion.

Since then, Zhao Yan has replaced Zhao Shen's position. Although the emperor did not issue an edict to crown him as the crown prince, he gave him all the authority of the crown prince, and he assisted in state affairs. Wen Zhiluo was secretly wooing the courtiers, and almost half of the courtiers in the court fell to Zhao Yan.

And Zhao Shen is unpopular in the Zongren Mansion.

He had some friendship with Zhao Shen, so he went to visit him in the Zongren Mansion after the matter calmed down. Zhao Shen gradually collapsed mentally in the Zongren Mansion and told him the truth: The rebellion was planted by someone and had nothing to do with him.

"It was Zhao Yan who did it! There will be no one else but him! Third brother, you help me and help me explain things clearly to my father! I really didn't want to hurt him, I was framed! ”

Zhao Zhen asked, "Do you have any evidence?" ”

“…… No. ”

"There is no evidence, even if I explain it to my father, my father will not listen." Zhao Zhen sighed, "Big brother, my father has always loved you, and I should let you out when my anger is gone." ”

He didn't promise Zhao Zhen, it was really not because there was no evidence, but because he knew that Wen Zhiluo did it, and if it was turned out, Wen Zhiluo would definitely die.

For the sake of her life, he could only keep his mouth shut.

Even if, the eldest brother was really wronged.

Later, he found the connection between Wen Zhiluo and this matter from some clues, which are very small and not easy to attract attention, for example, the words she finished practicing for a period of time will be burned, he once picked up a small piece by chance, and found that she practiced Zhao Shen's font.

There are nine points of resemblance.

Later, he burned the small piece of paper as well.

After Zhao Shen's stumbling block was removed, Zhao Yan was extremely diligent in order to consolidate his position, and Wen Zhiluo occasionally lived in the palace in order to help him.

But on such a night, he would involuntarily run to Zhao Yan, standing still for a long time through the wall.

Once the door suddenly opened, and he didn't have time to dodge when she stopped him: "Third Highness? ”

"......," he was so embarrassed that he turned back to her and smiled, "It's me." ”

Under the moonlight, her face was not beautiful, she was plated with a layer of soft light, her long hair was not draped behind her shoulders, and between movements, a few strands of hair passed in front of her eyes.

Zhao Zhen looked at her, his body stiffened slightly.

It seems that the devil is stunned.

Wen Zhiluo hesitated, closed the door and came out, she was dressed thinly, and her whole person looked very slender, which made him want to hug her.

His fingers moved, and he clenched them silently again.

"Why are you here?" There was a hint of caution in her eyes.

It was about night that emboldened him, and he said to her, "I have come to see you." ”

Wen Zhiluo was stunned, obviously he didn't expect him to answer like this, and he couldn't find a word to deal with it for a long time, but his ears slowly turned red.

A thin layer of crimson.

His gaze stopped at her ear and he couldn't help but smile.

It's still as cute as ever.

Wen Zhiluo also felt the temperature on her ears, and reached out to pull her hair out from behind her ears to block her ears. When the hand left, he pinched the earlobe.

Her little movements didn't escape his eyes.

"How did you come out?" Zhao Zhen asked.

"I'm a little dizzy, so I'm going for a walk to get some air." Wen Zhiluo raised his eyes to look at him and asked, "Since you came to see me, why didn't you come in?" ”

Because I don't dare.

Zhao Zhen said this in his heart, smiled, and replied to her: "You may not remember me anymore, where do I dare to disturb casually." ”

"How could I not remember." Wen Zhiluo explained embarrassedly: "The Third Highness helped me, I remember it very clearly." ”

She sighed, "I've been so busy lately that I can't take a break." I wanted to see you, but I forgot about it after putting it off again and again. ”

Zhao Zhen raised his eyebrows: "You originally wanted to come to see me?" ”

"yes." She nodded seriously, tilted her face, and the moonlight sprinkled into her pupils, which was exceptionally clear, "How is Your Highness doing lately?" ”

"Me?" He smiled, "It's the same every day." ”

This sentence once again made her not know how to answer, lowered her eyes and pursed her lips, and said with a smile after a while: "Your Highness, rest assured, I keep the agreement with you in my heart." ”

He looked at her and let out a soft "um".

In fact, he didn't expect her to help him, he just felt that at least because of that agreement she would remember him, and that was enough.

But Wen Zhiluo is a trustworthy person.

*

The following year, in March, he went to the hospital to find a doctor to see his mother, but was shirked by the doctor. He beat up the imperial doctor and was stopped by Wen Zhiluo. Wen Zhiluo arranged for the imperial doctor to treat Tang Jieyu, and stayed until Tang Jieyu woke up.

He sent Wen Zhiluo away. On the way, she told him that she could arrange a way out for him.

Go to the northwest and lead the army to fight.

This is how she repays him.

In a way, this is a good opportunity to get ahead. As long as he wins this battle and has his own place in the northwest, then no matter how the capital changes, it will not delay him.

With opportunity comes danger. The situation in the northwest is chaotic, and if he goes, he is likely to die on the spot.

So she didn't force him, she just offered him a choice.

"Your Highness, whether to go or stay, you have to think it out for yourself. Don't listen to the advice of others, ask yourself what you want. ”

"If you want a peaceful and stable life, then stay, I promise that King Qi will not embarrass you. If you are not willing to live like this, then go to the northwest and give it a try. She laughed, "I think you have that ability." ”

Of course, as smart as she is, she won't know that once he wins this battle, he will become a threat to Zhao Yan. But the melee in the northwest was the most urgent problem, and it was also the problem that the emperor asked Zhao Yan to quickly find a way to solve.

So while she was giving him a chance, she was also helping Zhao Yan solve the dilemma in front of him.

Wen Zhiluo didn't ask him for an answer right away, she gave him three days to think about it.

He thought a lot about it in the past three days, but in the end it was her words that made him make up his mind.

"I think you have what it takes."

Then trust her judgment, and trust him once.

Three days later, he told her about his decision. Wen Zhiluo looked at him for a long time, didn't smile, and sighed a little in his eyes: "I knew you would choose this way." ”

"Why?"

"Because you're tired of this palace." Her eyes crooked and she laughed, "Isn't it?" ”

He was shocked in his heart, and he had to sigh at her ability to recognize people.

Indeed, this boxy palace city, he has long been disgusted.

He wanted to see the outside world, even if he was crushed and the net was broken, it was better than drowning in this palace.

It's a pity that she is so smart, but she can't see through one thing.

- He's so, likes her.

On the day I left Beijing, it was drizzling in the capital.

He rushed to the northwest with 50,000 soldiers, and once defeated, it would be a catastrophe.

The emperor was very satisfied with his courage and sent him off on the city tower, and Zhao Yan also stayed on the city tower, and the person next to him was Wen Zhiluo.

She was wearing a goose yellow dress, which melted into the April light rain, and she couldn't see clearly in a hazy way.

After the farewell ceremony, he was ready to board his horse and set off.

At this moment, a soft voice called out to him: "Wait! ”

His body stiffened, and he turned his head slowly, and saw her holding an umbrella in one hand and a skirt in the other, trotting towards him, and she didn't care about the muddy water splashing on her skirt.

"Zhiluo." He called to her softly.

Wen Zhiluo panted and stopped in front of him, she ran down from the city tower just now, a little anxious, she raised the umbrella high and covered his head.

"Your Highness, if you don't do it, forget it." Her voice was faint.

At the last moment, it was still too late to turn around.

Although she believes in his strength, there are too many variables on the battlefield to guarantee what the outcome will be.

She was actually reluctant to let him die.

Zhao Zhen looked at her and smiled.

The kind of smile that was relieved.

She didn't want him to die.

He stretched out his hand, gently rubbed her head, and said, "The arrow is on the string, and it has to be sent." ”

If he turns back now, all of them will suffer.

"But ......"

"Zhiluo, do you want me to live?"

He abruptly interrupted her and asked.

"Hope!"

"Okay." Zhao Zhen lowered her head, quietly looked at herself in the little girl's eyes, and assured her: "Then I will definitely come back." ”

The little girl bit her lip, touched a beaded hairpin from her head, and put it on his hand: "This hairpin has a mechanism that can pop out sharp filaments." If you take it, you may be able to save your life. ”

Wen Zhiluo showed it to him, he played with it in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh: "Why do you have so much thought, this girl." ”

"There's no way, it's all about survival." She blinked.

He looked at her in silence for a long time, and said "goodbye".

"Well, goodbye." The corners of her mouth curled into a smile.

I don't know when the goodbye is.

Zhao Zhen left under the umbrella, stepped on horseback, and led the three armies to advance.

There was no turning back all the way.

He was afraid that the determination he had made up his mind would fall apart the moment he looked back and saw her.

So Zhao Zhen didn't see it, Wen Zhiluo held an umbrella and watched him until he disappeared at the end of the road.
