January of the fifty-seventh year of Kangxi. Capital

When I returned, the entire capital was already shrouded in heavy snow. Although I have long been accustomed to such severe cold after two years of living in the Great Northwest, the chill on my face still makes me cold.

The Queen Mother died, and although I had traveled day and night, I still couldn't see her old man for the last time. Mrs. Tong worked hard all day and was too old to bear the sadness, so she also went with her old sister. The national mourning and the family mourning, I don't think I can rush back to this Forbidden City that can suffocate me.

I didn't see the Queen Mother for the last time, and I wasn't sad that although the Queen Mother has always been good to me, I am not a servile person, and I don't care about the feelings of the so-called royal people. However, the death of the old queen mother, as far as I am concerned, is indeed a great loss, because of this, I feel that the winter in the capital is so cold, so cold that even the air is filled with the smell of sorrow.

The Queen Mother, Mrs. Tong, I don't know what ulterior things are in the friendship between them, but one thing I can be sure of is that the departure of the Queen Mother has made me lose the last barrier in this Forbidden City. Qiyun's last * mountain also collapsed with a bang......

I didn't come back in time, and I lost the last chance to test Kangxi's intentions before the Queen Mother died. Now, I'm like a newborn baby, basically at the mercy of others.

Now that the fourteenth elder brother has become the climate, the people who support him in the court have become the majority, in other words, the .sd empress dowager is dead. It's easy for Kangxi to kill me. And anyone can kill me at this time, and the emperor wants me to die, so no matter who fabricates any crime, I will die.

My life in this stormy and shaky place is like the arrogant snowflakes flying in the sky at this moment, as long as I see the sun, it will achieve the effect of vanishing......

"Miss. Aren't you going back home to take a break? You've been on the road for so many days! Dong'er put me down and opened the window looking around, "It's cold outside, do you have to rush into the palace in such a hurry?" ”

"Dong'er, you like winter!" The curtains prevented the snowflakes outside from continuing to kiss my face, but it made me feel a sense of loss.

"Miss, why do you ask that?" Dong'er looked up curiously.

"Hehe, your name is Dong'er!" I smiled sadly: "Dong'er, if I enter the palace this time, I won't be able to come out again." Please take care of Brother Fourteen for me, I owe him! ”

I don't want to go home, I don't want to see a happy morning, and I don't want to let my heart that took two years to calm down because of any waves because of the seventeenth elder brother. I have foreseen that what I don't want to meet, I have to face it today, and I hope that I can have the courage to face it alone.

"Miss?" Dong'er's expression instantly became panicked, and it took a long time before she had the courage to continue my words: "You know everything? ”

Silly Dong'er, her mouth can deceive people, but the affection in her eyes can't deceive people: "I know it from that day when you promised to entangle the fourteenth elder brother for me."

calmly looked at Dong'er's eyes. Sweet things make me calm about all betrayals and not all betrayals are so unforgivable, and letting go of others is equivalent to letting go of myself: "You are my second brother's person, with the crazy look of the fourteenth elder brother chasing me that day." It's easy for you to kill him, but you just hold on to him and won't let go no matter how much he beats and scolds you. As a master of the Heaven and Earth Society for so many years, you will not make such a mistake, unless you ......"

"Unless, I'm in love with him......" The wind rolled up the curtains, and the snowflakes drifted in, reflecting Dong'er's face as white as snowflakes.

"So, you helped me like that day. In fact, you already knew that there were people from the Heaven and Earth Society in the rebels on the other side of Tucheng, wasn't the one who recognized me that day? My second brother must have told you that you must not let me rush over, but you still cooperated with me to do so, because you were not prepared for me to come back alive! ”

I couldn't understand such feelings, knowing that I had met Dawn and killed her. As long as she is dead, everything can be solved. I've thought about this criminal thought a million times in my head. So, Dong'er. I can understand your feelings, but I can't figure it out, how can a girl like you have a relationship with the fourteenth elder brother?

"I'm sorry, Miss......"

"You don't have to tell me I'm sorry, you haven't been seen for days when I've been injured, and I don't think you'll be better if you violate the rules." In fact, she still has a chance to kill me later, but is she soft-hearted if she gives up again? Or, her intentions were also discovered by the Fourteenth Elder Brother, and she couldn't bear the hatred of the Fourteenth Elder Brother?

"Before I followed Miss, I was arrested by the imperial court, and I finally escaped. "Dong'er's brows tightened, and I knew that memory must be very unbearable to look back on: "On the day I was with Miss, the fourteenth master recognized me at a glance, he warned me, but he didn't expose ......"

"That's why you're here?" It's incredible, I caught her back then, just to let her go this time, she was emotional?

"No, I was almost exposed a few times, but it was the fourteenth elder brother who covered up the past for me. I knew in my heart that he was afraid that I would implicate you, Miss, and when I came into contact with the Fourteenth Master, he begged me to take good care of you, but ...... "A few rescues, such a hot-blooded man, after all, it is difficult to help himself......

"Does he know?" The carriage stopped, and the guards at the gate of the palace had already begun to check, and I knew that I was about to get off, so I hurriedly asked the last sentence.

"He ......" Dong'er tilted his head: "I shouldn't know ......"

It shouldn't be known, it shouldn't be known......

Dong'er, you're not a fool, even you can't be sure, how can you be sure, didn't he understand this a long time ago, and then use your feelings to probe the secrets between me and the Heaven and Earth Society, and even use you to spy on me?

Kangxi, you should feel relieved, although history is not biased in your choice, but the son you gave birth to, as you expected, grew up to be an out-and-out politician......

"Please get out of the car!"

I was about to comfort Dong'er for a few words, but who knew it was because it was too late, so I had to beckon Dong'er to get out of the car with me first. As soon as I landed, I heard a crisp voice: "Sister! ”

Closing my eyes, I didn't expect that I had avoided the way home and chose to enter the palace directly, but I bumped into the seventeenth elder brother and Chenxi at the gate of the palace.

Looking back, the seventeenth elder brother is more neat and more like a big man than two years ago, and Chenxi has changed her previous melancholy appearance, like a happy little woman snuggled in the arms of the seventeenth elder brother. I clenched my fists and forced myself to fix my gaze on the cane under Chenxi's armpit, telling myself that Brother Seventeen hugged her like this because she was not good at walking.

"Oops, you've been in the house for months, why are you still so blind!" Although it is still a little difficult to stand, the demeanor of the hostess of Dawn is vividly exerted: "Sister Qiyu, this new sister is Sister Meng, the daughter of Dase, you also know, my legs are inconvenient, and I can rest assured that she is by my side." It's just that sister, you also saw it, it's a blind one! ”

Montess? I smiled a little desolately. Dawn, you are generous! Compared to you, I really look like a jealous woman!

Look at this little girl carefully, fifteen or sixteen years old, with red lips and white teeth, and she must be a great beauty in time.

"Don't hurry up and say hello to my sister." The little girl was also about to look at me secretly, but she was so frightened by Chenxi's shout that she hurriedly knelt on the ground to greet me: "Slave slave slave, slave maid, slave maid has seen Seventeen Fujin!" ”

"Sister, she's just a Han girl, originally my sister and I intended to ask her for a noble title, but because of ......" Chenxi smiled very fakely: "I think it's better to wait for my sister to come back for this kind of thing." ”

"It's up to you." I squinted, trying to ignore the dawn as much as possible, and the smile that made me feel particularly piercing at the moment was like a victor showing herself her life and death to take power. Faced with the embarrassing meeting at this moment, in the face of the authentic ancient scene of three wives and four concubines, I don't want to fight, and I don't want to get involved in this vulgar farce.

"Qiyun, you've worked hard all the way, why don't you go home first? I have prepared everything in the house, and your room is still the same as it is, why are you ......?"

"Is the master here to question me?" Or do you come to demonstrate, take your new love and old love, and take revenge on me for being ruthless?

Brother Seventeen's mouth trembled, and he didn't want to argue with me anymore. I was willing to take a good look at him, still handsome, but his eyes had become as vicissitudes as mine. The snow on his head proves that he has been waiting for me outside the palace for a long time, and I have to admit that even if we are separated for two years, even if things are wrong, he is still the person who knows me best in the entire Forbidden City, and he has long guessed that I will not return home.

"Since the master is not here to question me, then the concubine has something to do, and she can't be accompanied." Resolutely turned around, pulling Dong'er, who was still in a daze, and I hid my figure in the heavy snow.

Seventeenth elder brother, I know that you still have me in your heart, and I also have you in my heart, but we can only know each other, and our positions with each other have long been on opposite sides......
