Chapter 002: The Soul Returns

"Everything is like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity, and it should be viewed as such!"

Putting down the pen in his hand, Gu Yu breathed a cool breath and cast his eyes out of the window, only to see that the cold wind of early spring had cut out a large area of new green, and the swaying flower branches cast mottled silhouettes on the window paper.

This is the twilight pavilion where she lived when she was young, and because there are not many servants and maids in the pavilion, it seems extraordinarily quiet.

Two servant women were sweeping the snow in the courtyard, a maidservant girl with a double bun was sitting on the kang and playing with a bun, and one in the room was setting up a purple clay pot to boil tea, and there was a very faint jasmine fragrance in the air, mixed with an indescribable strange sandalwood fragrance.

The maid who was making tea smiled lightly, suddenly raised her head and smiled at her, and said angrily: "Lady, what are you doing looking at me like this, don't you know Ah Wei again!" ”

Ah Wei!

Yes, this is Ah Wei, the personal maid who has accompanied her for more than ten years, when she was in the boudoir, this maid was her only trusted partner, from being dependent on each other in the Gu Mansion when she was young, to being driven out of the family, being sold into Chongqilou, and later entering the Huan Mansion, until finally entering the palace to become the queen and the queen mother, all the bitter honors and disgraces that happened to her, Ah Wei is the only witness, and her only sharer.

It's just that unlike Ah Wei, who accompanied her every day in the Xianyang Palace in the past, the maid in front of her is a little less gorgeous and flamboyant, and a little more childish, clear and clever.

"Look, the lady woke up this time, she was a little crazy, I'm not Zhang Shishilang, don't look at it!"

The pink-faced and peach-cheeked maid said and laughed, and hurriedly brought a cup of tea over and sent it to Gu Yu: "The weather is a little cold, the lady has just fallen into the water again, the slave has boiled some jasmine ginger tea here, the lady is about to drink it, go to get rid of the cold in the body." ”

Gu Yu looked at her in a daze, and she didn't realize it until the tea was delivered to her hand, but after a while, the face in front of her suddenly lost its color, and a "bang" sounded in her ears.

"Yikes! Lady, what's wrong? Miaowei exclaimed, and hurriedly squatted down, picked up the broken porcelain on the ground, looked up and saw the surprise and cold light in Gu Yu's eyes, and said busily, "I'm sorry, lady, it's a slave who is careless." ”

The chirping in my ears is finally no longer ethereal and dreamy, it seems extremely real, even the hot water splashed on my feet is also extremely hot.

So, it's not a dream.

She is not only Gu Yu, the eleventh lady of the Gu family of Jinling, but also the Empress Dowager Chu who assisted six emperors in the past fifteen years of listening to the system in the Linzhao Dynasty, but was finally forced to die in the Xianyang Palace by the so-called lover.

She is even more her, a soul who does not belong to this era at all and has many strange memories, because of those strange memories and deduction ability, she will be used by Huan Che, change the original history, and push herself to the peak of power of the Huan family, but in the end, she fell from the peak alone.

After her death, Huan Che took the soldiers and horses to occupy the healthy city, first set up the three-year-old Sima An as the crown prince, but in the following year, he finally abolished the emperor and established the Huan Chu Dynasty with the surname Huan, however, he was not proud of the throne for long, and was soon driven down by the Beifu soldiers with the homeless marshal as the main force, and he Huan Che finally ended up with a betrayal of his relatives and the defeat of the army.

These are all things she saw in her dreams, seeing his final embarrassed escape, watching him alone, being beheaded by his closest and most trusted subordinates, it was in the dream that she also woke up laughing, laughing until there were tears in her eyes.

Jade-faced Shura, bloodbathed in health, will never end well.

Seeing that Gu Yu's eyes were stunned, and even gradually overflowed with a sparkling light, the maid was also a little stunned.

"Lady, what's wrong with you? But just now, I had another nightmare? She asked.

Nightmare? Yes, it was a nightmare, but when you wake up, you won't be fine.

Since she has become the eleventh lady of the Gu clan in Jinling, Gu Ayu, then in this life, she will walk out of an unusual way of her own, and all the past will become the sand in her palm, paving the way for her tomorrow.

As soon as she thought of this, Gu Yu smiled, she looked at the boudoir she lived in again, it was not big, at least compared with the Xianyang Palace where she lived before, the furnishings and furniture here were particularly shabby, in addition to a bronze mirror on the mahogany makeup table, there was a small makeup box, and there were very few carved jade combs inside, and the bird's head and hairpin were visible.

The four walls are white, only a simple calligraphy and painting hangs in the middle of the wall facing the head of the bed, which is not a celebrity calligraphy, and the only two places in the whole room are a painted and hung powder gauze Hu bed, and the dark lacquered wooden table at the head of the bed is a light smoke of Ruijin incense burner.

The environment she lives in is not good, at least for the first scholar clan in Wuzhong with thousands of hectares of fertile land, she can only be regarded as a humble room here, and it is no wonder that in the first family of Wu County, her Gu family A Yu is just the daughter of a noble concubine with a bit of status, and the noble concubine Shen who gave birth to her is not close to her, in this Gu mansion, she has not been able to see Shen for a long time, and at that time someone told her that her mother made a mistake, so she was locked up, and no one was allowed to see her. In addition, her mother-in-law also let her go, so she was placed in this remote small courtyard as if she was neglected, and lived on the dowry left to her by the Shen family.

But she knew that as the daughter of the Shen family of Wuxing, the pride of Jiangdong, the dowry of the Shen family was much more than what she saw.

"Ah Wei, you just told me that I fell into the water with the ten ladies in the second room, so I lay on the bed for three days."

Gu Yu suddenly asked, Miao Wei nodded again and again: "Yes, the lady fell into the water this time and suffered from the cold, and she was in a coma for several days, and the lady also said a lot of nonsense, but the slave was frightened!" ”

Miaowei said innocently, and an old woman with a round face walked in from outside the door and scolded in a low voice: "Ah Wei, what are you talking nonsense, how can you talk to a lady like this!" ”

"The lady won't blame me, the lady has always liked me, lady, don't you say?"

Miaowei said with a smile, and at the same time grabbed Gu Yu's arm with both hands and came to her, but what she didn't expect was that Gu Yu, who had been laughing and playing with her like a sister in the past, had a sinking face.

"When did I, Gu Yu, be so cheap that even a maidservant could trample on my identity?"

Gu Yu's words suddenly made Miaowei dumbfounded, and she quickly knelt down with a puff.

"I'm sorry, lady, it's a slave who is low, and it's not good to be a slave." As he spoke, tears almost fell.

Chen Yu, who had just entered the room, was also taken aback, and looked at Gu Yu in some amazement.

Gu Yu realized that because of his excessive reaction, the two servants and maids became suspicious, and he collected his thoughts again, and his face slowed down: "It's because I'm in a bad mood, I shouldn't say such heavy words, Ah Wei, you get up!" Go out first, I have something to say to Concubine Chen. ”

Miao Wei looked panicked, didn't dare to raise her head, quickly nodded yes, and then got up and walked out, when she went out, she couldn't figure it out, she used to say that she used to say, often with the lady without scruples, but the lady never blamed her, and even treated her more like a sister, and today she ...... How could it be different?

Chen Yu was also a little strange, as Gu Yu entered the inner room, opened the curtain, and asked in a low voice: "What did the lady tell the old slave?" ”

Gu Yu just looked at Chen Yu quietly in a daze, and with her staring like this, some illusions also appeared in her mind: blood, a large piece of blood, and a heart-rending cry, even with a roll of straw mats, dragging a long line of blood on the ground.

Because she did something wrong and was punished by her grandmother, Chen Yu interceded for her, so she was beaten to death by her grandmother, and after her death, she was also thrown into the ruins of the chaotic post and fed to the vultures - this is the last memory image Chen Yu left her.

"Chen Fei, I remember, you were originally a person next to A-Niang, when I was very young, A-Niang gave you to me, and you became my nurse." Gu Yu said word by word.

Chen Yu's eyes couldn't help but moisten, and she nodded and replied: "Yes, in fact, when the lady was less than a year old, the lady followed the lady, and the lady actually ...... Remember. ”

Of course she didn't remember things that were so long, but there were just some things she should know, such as this nurse who really treated her in her previous life.

Gu Yu smiled and asked, "Then this year is Xiankang...... What year? ”

She could deduce what years she appeared in based on her approximate age, but she couldn't be accurate in which year and month, so she asked Chen Yu.

In the last life, she mistakenly believed Ah Wei, but the loyalty of this nurse is beyond doubt.

Chen Yu was slightly shocked, glanced at Gu Yu with some distress, and replied: "This year is the seventh year of Xiankang, lady, what's wrong with you?" Is it because of the ...... that fell overboard this time?"

"Nope!" Gu Yu interrupted and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm fine, but I'm confused and can't remember some things, not to mention that in today's world, dynasties change so frequently......"

Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and then thought that the lady was usually heartless, in addition to liking to dance and play with swords, she really didn't care much about poetry and scriptures and even today's times, and it was normal to be confused occasionally.

In today's world, although the scholars live a life of indulging in singing and leisurely descending the southern mountain, it does not affect the open and secret struggle between the clans of the gate lords, the unmasking uprising of the folk homeless marshal, coupled with the weakening of the royal family, the Hu soldiers have repeatedly violated the border, internal and external troubles, and wars are everywhere...... If it weren't for this troubled era, if everyone didn't want to control the emperor and plot to abolish it, the Shen family wouldn't have ......

Thinking of this, Chen Yu felt a little sad in her heart.

But Gu Yu's mind was racing, looking at a picture of a lady on the screen in a daze, and her eyes like lacquer gradually became bright and deep.

Seven years of Xiankang!

She actually returned to Xiankang for seven years! If there are any things in her childhood memory that she can never forget for the rest of her life, then it is the seventh year of Xiankang, this year has been three years since the death of Situ Wang Dao, and only one year has been before the death of Emperor Cheng, this year is a turning point in her fate in her previous life, her biological mother Shen will die of illness in this year, the youngest grandson of the Gu family will die, and she will be kicked out of the house for "murdering" the fetus in her mother's womb......

It was in this year that she met him, and under his training, she spent one of the most cruel but memorable years of her life, after which she was presented as a gift to King Wu...... Until he entered the palace, he joined forces with him to invade the Jin Dynasty for fifteen years.

"Xiankang...... Seven years ......" Gu Yu repeated it again, and suddenly turned his eyes to look out of the window, outside the window of the rhombic lattice, a few budding stamens overflowed obliquely, it was the spring breeze that was charming, the peach blossoms began to bloom, and a few finches chirped without knowing the spring cold, wandering on the top of the tree.

A vibrant painting hall is displayed in front of you.

In the seventh year of Xiankang, in March, that is to say, that day is not far away!

Thinking of this, Gu Yu's eyes lit up, this year, she did fall into the water because of a quarrel with Gu Shi Niang, but it was not because of a stumble or who pushed who into the water, she vaguely remembered that after falling into the water, there seemed to be a pair of hands desperately pulling her feet to the bottom of the water, but she couldn't remember what happened, let alone who the person who dragged her was.

And all the misfortunes she suffered in the Gu Mansion were caused by this incident......

At this moment, a shout suddenly came from outside the door: "Gu Ayu, you come out for me!" ”
