After the beginning of spring, March, Dongfang Mei's 100-day ceremony is just a finger, and the three-year filial piety period of the princess of Zhuyi is about to expire. On this day, Chen Ajiao ordered to come down and invite Princess Zhuyi to come to the Jade Hall Palace.

Liu Qing walked to His Royal Highness, looked through the bead curtain at the elegant and prosperous Jade Hall, and Chen Ajiao, who was sitting there with a relaxed expression, slowly clenched her fists under the wide sleeves of her deep coat.

"Niangniang" Mo lost the curtain and said, "Princess Zhuyi has arrived," Liu Qing saw Niangniang. She gently bent her knees, and over the years since her mother's death, she has already learned to restrain her temper, and at this time, in front of Chen Ajiao, she was able to perform this salute completely, and even she sighed.

"Get up." The woman in the main seat looked up, her face soft, and she looked as if she was still extremely young. And she remembered that before the queen mother died, there were already fine lines on the corners of her eyes. Slightly hooked the corners of her lips, Gillian knew that she and the Wei family were separated from each other's honor and disgrace, and a dead Wei Zifu would never be able to get along peacefully. Therefore, it is better not to see each other. It's better to see each other for a long time than for a short time, otherwise they will not be happy with each other, and quickly cut through the mess and asked, "Princess Zhuyi must know that after this month, your filial piety period will be over." And you're eighteen years old and a little past your marriage. So I mean to get you married as soon as possible. Do you have anyone you like? ”

Liu Qing smiled slowly, remembering that the second sister Liu Jun had begged her mother before she went to Shanglin Yuan to confess her guilt to her father, and if one day it was time for her to get married, she could let her follow it. Jiaojiao can also be a technician, and no longer want to fight for anything, so that the last sister can embark on the life of two sisters.

In the end, the queen mother did not agree.

In fact, even if you say yes, what can you change? The queen mother is dead, so that their four siblings can survive in this palace in peace. The queen mother committed suicide in the Jiaofang Palace. Her happiness at that moment. It's no longer possible.

In the end, she still chose. Embark on the old path of two older sisters and fight for a safe future for his younger brother.

"Mother," she called tamely, bowing her head slightly. Said: "I like Lord Neishishi's second son, Shi Zhe, Chen Ajiao was silent for a moment and said, "I know." You go back first. ”

After Liu Qing left, Green Yi asked, "Niangniang, princess of Zhuyi, what ......do you think?" ”

Gillian picked up the teacup at hand. took a sip lightly, and said lightly: "If this candidate is chosen by Princess Zhuyi herself." I think I'm going to have to reevaluate her. ”

"How?" Green was shocked. Road. Shi Zhe is not as prominent as the husband of Wei Chang and Princess Yangshi. ”

"But. The Wei family is far from having the momentum of one door and five marquis. Gillian smiled faintly, "What would I think if she chose to be too prominent," she looked in the direction of the Xuanshu Hall and said softly, "What will Your Majesty think?" ”

"Shi Qing, the master of the internal history, is in charge of governing the Beijing Division..#.Although the official position is not as prominent as Jiuqing, it is an extremely important position. And Shi Qing was once the master of Liu Ju, the king of Qi, and this goodwill can ensure that she is worry-free in the Shi family. Gillian praised and said, "You can attack and retreat, you can defend, it's really smart." ”

"Then," Green asked worriedly, "does Niangniang plan to fulfill her?" ”

"Why not?" Gillian said. If Liu Che still has some pity for this daughter in his heart, why should she be a villain in vain?

Maybe Liu Qing didn't think it clearly, maybe the Wei family accepted his fate, with the family style of the Shi family's pure ministers for several generations, under the condition that the Son of Heaven was wise and the throne was stable, it was impossible for the Shi family to accompany the Wei family's desperate rebellion.

Gillian lowered her eyebrows.

In March of the fourth year of Yuan Ding, Chen Niangniang conveyed the meaning of Princess Zhuyi to Liu Che. Liu Che was silent all night, and the next day, the Xuanshu Hall passed the intention to give marriage.

In May of the fourth year of Yuan Ding, Princess Zhuyi got married. Chen Ajiao, as the highest-ranking concubine in Weiyang Palace, stood in the Xuande Hall and accepted the salutes of the princesses and concubines of Zhuyi with Liu Che.

watched Liu Qing put on the car in red makeup and left without looking back. Chen Ajiao breathed a sigh of relief, and had to admit that when the last woman with Wei Zifu's bloodline in this Weiyang Palace left, her heart was a little stretched.

Princess Zhuyi's wedding was far less grand than when Princess Wei Chang got married. But after all, it is the royal princess who is married, and the dowry is complete. Liu Liu, the king of Qi, who had been in Qi for three years, rushed back to Chang'an to participate in the wedding ceremony of his sister-in-law. There was no chance to meet each other in a hurry in the Xuande Palace, and there was no chance to even look at each other for a moment.

After the wedding ceremony in the palace, Liu Ju went to the Xuanshu Palace to meet his father.

I haven't seen Liu Che for three years, and looked at His Royal Highness's kneeling second son with some emotion. Liu Ju also grew taller. The expression on his face was calm, and he was confused when he first went to the fiefdom.

"Now that you're back," Liu Che thought for a while, "let's stay longer." coincides with your sister's marriage, and you spend more time with her. ”

Liu Ju lowered his head lightly and said respectfully, "Thank you for your grace." ”

"Your Majesty," the attendant outside the palace bowed and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asks to see you." ”

"Let him in." Liu Che said lightly.

Liu Mo, who was dressed in the court uniform of the prince, entered the palace and knocked: "Son, see my father." With the unique vigor and confidence of a young man on his face, Liu Ji glanced at it and felt dazzling, lowered his head and bowed his head, "See His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"Excuse me. Second brother. Liu Mo said lightly.

"My father and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have something to discuss, so the minister will retire first." Liu Zhidao saw that Liu Che nodded in the palace, and then bowed down. Out of the Xuanshu Palace, I heard Liu Mo's voice in the hall: "After a while, the son and father emperor will patrol the Fenshui." Erchen came to consult on the affairs of the prison state. ”

The sun outside the temple was scorching hot. Liu Ju's heart was never warm, and he smiled coldly, when he went to Qidi, his uncle instructed that it was better to be clumsy. Now the Wei family does not seek merit in the disadvantage, but seeks no fault. Therefore, he has been mediocre in Qidi all these years, barely maintaining a clean and peaceful place, and does not let Liu Mo be suspicious.

He thought. If one day his hidden sword blade is revealed, the world will definitely look sideways. It's just now. When he grows, that man grows too. Maybe it's growing faster than he is.

In the days of Qidi, when I heard that the woman in the Yutang Hall had asked her only son to go away from the desert and poison herself, Liu Mo had already left Chang'an for a month. I was stunned. Such a fact is beyond his imagination. However, it is true that traveling far away makes people stronger faster than the teachings of any famous teacher.

And he was a famous flower pampered by his mother in Weiyang Palace, and his family was ruined for the first time when he experienced wind and rain.

In June of the fourth year of Yuan Ding, the Jianzhang Palace was completed and lasted three years.

Liu Che was very happy, and said in the Yutang Hall that day. "Jiaojiao took a moment to go over and have a look. You will rejoice. ”

Chen Ajiao didn't care, but said, "This time the new palace maid is selected." By the way, let some of the older palace maids in Weiyang Palace go back. If there are too many elderly palace maids in the palace, they will increase their resentment. In the end, the harmony of heaven and earth will be lost. ”

"Leave these things to Jiaojiao." Liu Che was in a very good mood. It's not a big deal, so I agreed.

Chen Ajiao recruited the order to establish the chapter. Asked: "How many halls are there in Jianzhang Palace?" ”

Jianzhang Ling respectfully said: "Jianzhang Palace has thirteen outer halls and forty-nine inner halls. His Majesty specially instructed that the Nagato Palace be made into another Nagato Hall as the main hall of the inner hall and the walls should be plastered with pepper mud. First, it should be used in the middle palace. ”

Gillian was surprised and asked, "Really?" ”

In the evening, when Liu Che returned from the Xuanshu Palace, seeing her preoccupied, he summoned the green clothes and asked, "What's wrong with your master?" "Today, Niangniang summoned Jianzhang Ling, and after asking, that's it." The green clothes are respectful.

Liu Che understood, waved away the green clothes, walked in with his hands, and said lightly: "When I was a teenager, I once promised that if I became a wife, I would store it in a golden house. Do you remember? ”

She couldn't help but feel stunned, and naturally remembered the sweetness of the promise, but what was more deeply engraved in the memory was the piercing wind that pierced the hall when the promise was broken, and the endless pain and despair that could not be seen.

"If you don't want to go back to your pepper room, it's okay, I'll build another chapter for you." He kept staring at her eyebrows, and naturally noticed a subtle change in her expression. Covering her eyes to prevent her from thinking about it again, he muttered with his lips in his mouth, "This time, I promise that Jianzhang will not fall." ”

She dodged slightly, and the oath of the Golden House back then was a little clever and sincere, so long ago it was difficult to trace. Couples who have been doing it for so many years are more confused by the more they understand the person around them.

She accompanied him through her youth, and she saw all his life and thought she knew him very well. But standing within reach, she didn't understand him.

It has been a full decade since the sixth year of Yuan Shuo. She thought that his temperament of liking the new and hating the old would not tolerate her for long. He endured spending ten years with her, and as time went by, it seemed that having him by his side had become a habit.

That year, Li Yan appeared so young and delicate, she really thought that he would leave him, although she would not be too sad. In the end, however, he would not be too happy if he chose to stay with her.

Since then, I've had a little confidence in each other's feelings.

In Shanglin Garden, she lost her child, but she was closer to him and gave birth to a little dependence. Rely on it, but at the same time guard against it, sometimes even you are confused.

If he leaves her now, will it be him or her who is not used to it?

"Actually," she thought for a moment, "you don't have to. ”

The mind has gradually settled down, and if it does not change, it will be like this in this life.

But if something happens, she'll still leave. Even if you will be in love, you will turn back, and you will still leave in the end.

Liu Che sneered, there was a faint haze in his eyes, and said, "I'm happy like this." His hand around Gillian's waist increased the force, and Gillian snorted in pain.

He was stunned, and his strength was lightened, but he still hugged it tightly.

She frowned, she didn't believe what the words of building a Jianzhang Palace were given to her. Liu Che built the Zhang Palace, most of which was for himself, but she still received the thoughts of the Changmen Palace.

At this moment, leaning on his arms, he suddenly wanted to ask, he knew that today would regret what he did that day. Even now, even if he holds a prosperous world, he can't erase everything in the past in front of her.

In the end, there was no opening.

There are some things that can't be done by humans.
