Prologue
In the bronze mirror, a face with heavy makeup and light makeup was reflected. The eyebrows are far away, the skin is like condensation, and the lips are a little red, like a fairy who has fallen into the dust by mistake, and the lightness can make people obsessed.
Beside her, a maid was combing her hair and dressing up.
Tao Wan looked at herself in the mirror and suddenly thought how good it would be if time could go back to when she was fourteen years old. If she had come back to that day again, she would not have agreed to go away with that man.
"Niangniang, Mrs. Wei asks to see you."
The maid's sudden arrival interrupted her thoughts, she looked at the already combed bun, lowered her eyes, and said lightly: "Let people in." ”
No matter how many times she heard that name, she still couldn't keep her mind as calm as water. Every time I dream back at midnight, my dreams are full of pure and faint feelings when a boy and a girl first met.
But the past is still in the past, this path is her own choice, and no one can complain in the end.
The footsteps approached, and she forced herself to collect her emotions and put up the same signature smile in this deep palace.
The woman who came in with the palace was slim, and her face looked like she was still as beautiful as a flower, but she was covered with green silk, showing the fact that she was already a wife.
After the woman saluted respectfully, Tao Yunping retreated.
"What does that mean?" Seeing that the woman in front of her threw the name tag carved for her by her master in front of her when there were only two of them left, Tao Guan's face turned slightly pale.
Mrs. Wei stood quietly, looking at Tao Yun's eyes with a little indifference and pity: "Niangniang is a smart person." ”
These words seemed to confirm her suspicions.
"So what?" She frowned, posturing defensively.
"The adult ordered the concubine to pass the word to the mother, and the past became a memory, why bother with empty lovesickness." After speaking, Mrs. Wei sighed, saluted her respectfully and was about to leave.
…… The past becomes a memory, why bother with empty lovesickness!
What to reminisce? Acacia what?
What is there to reminisce, and what is there to love.
She chuckled, tears streaming down her cheeks. I somehow remembered that year when she was enjoying the shade under the locust tree in the courtyard, there was a young man standing under the porch not far away, and asked her with a smile: "Wanyun, earlier you said that you only want to hold hands with one person in this life, I don't know if I have this honor?" ”
Laughing and laughing, he suddenly burst out: "No, he won't help the court to arrest my master!" ”
Mrs. Wei paused, turned around and looked at her very seriously, and said, "Niangniang, people will change." The past has become a cloud of smoke, and since he is a courtier, he naturally has to do things well for the emperor in order to keep the black veil on his head...... Hey, that's it, if the mother doesn't believe in the concubine, the lord is now discussing with the emperor in the Wenhua Palace......"
Before the words fell, I saw Tao Guan hurriedly running out with his skirt. Seeing this, the palace maid who was waiting outside the door hurriedly beckoned a few clever girls to catch up with her: "Niangniang, slow down, even if there is a big thing, you can't break the rules in this palace!" ”
But she couldn't manage that much anymore.
trotted all the way to the front of the palace, and saw the emperor's close attendants guarding the door from a distance. Tao Wan cleaned up his expression and greeted him, "Father-in-law Heshun, the palace heard that the emperor has been busy with government affairs recently, so he wanted to come to visit, I wonder if my father-in-law can pass it on his behalf?" ”
"The old slave has seen the lady concubine." After He Shun saluted her, he frowned and said, "It's really not a coincidence today, the emperor is discussing with Lord Wei inside, and he ordered no one to disturb." Niangniang, you have delicate bones, and you can't stand a long wait, so it's better to go back to the palace first, and wait until the emperor finishes discussing things, and the old slave will definitely give you a gift for Niangniang. ”
"In this case, there will be Lao and Shun's father-in-law."
…… It's ironic, I heard the truth with my own ears, but I couldn't do anything but force my face to laugh.
Just as Tao Wan turned around to leave, she heard the voice she missed every day say, "Your Majesty, this is too precious, ...... minister"
"Hahahaha, Wei Qing, I'm in a very happy mood today, just a few treasures, how about rewarding you!"
“…… We're thanking Your Majesty Longen. ”
……
It's stupid.
She remembered that she didn't know who had put a booklet on her desk, because there was no word on the cover, which aroused her curiosity, so she picked it up and flipped through it, and only halfway through it did she realize that it was related to the previous dynasty. Frightened, she dropped the booklet on the ground with trembling hands, and when she was frightened, she glanced at it and suddenly spread it out on the page, and the pattern drawn was extremely familiar.
So he picked it up again with trembling hands and looked at it carefully, and found that this pattern was originally a symbol of the imperial family of the previous dynasty.
The booklet suddenly became inexplicably hot. It was winter, and Tao Wan didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly tore it up and burned it with the charcoal fire, lest it be seen by others.
Thinking about it this way, it turned out to be him.
He had long since abandoned the affection between him and her, decisive and decisive.
Why don't you want to see it until now?
Since the founding of the Emperor Gaozu, this dynasty has spared no effort to find the treasures left by the royal family of the previous dynasty. It is said to be an immeasurable fortune, and as long as you get it, you can change the dynasty. However, at the moment when the imperial city of the previous dynasty was breached, most of the core members of the royal family died under the sword. - And the other members of the side branch did not know where the treasure was hidden, so the treasure has not yet seen the light of day.
On the other side of her nameplate, where her name is inscribed, there is a small pattern engraved in the corner of one side, which proves that her master is related to the royal family of the previous dynasty, or that the royal family of the previous dynasty is likely to know the secrets of the treasure.
She had known about it, and had been trying to hide everything. But now, because of that person, her last home and thoughts are gone.
