Ye Qingcheng hurriedly returned to the courtyard, cleaned his hands and face, combed his hair, changed his clothes again, and was about to go out, but he realized that something was wrong, folded back, and personally found a moon-white silver silk dark pattern robe in the wardrobe to change in.

The silver threads are painted as entwined vines, flowing like moonlight with the gestures of the hands.

Ah Shu likes him to wear such seemingly low-key and simple clothes, but inadvertently shows off the gorgeous and flamboyant clothes-

Ah Zhao, who was peeling chestnuts and eating them on the chair, saw him going back and forth, washing his hands and face, combing his hair and changing his clothes, so he bit open the chestnut shell with a gabba and snorted with a pout.

Flatter yourself!

It's more stinky and beautiful than the world!

Although the prince's clothes are very beautiful, the prince never changes a few sets of clothes at a time!

Ye Qingcheng caught a glimpse of Ah Zhao's facial expression, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, so he had to pretend not to see it, and walked out of the door quickly.

Silent in the Sanssouci Garden, Fang Yuan waited at the entrance of the courtyard, saw Ye Qingcheng coming, walked over quickly, and saluted, "Uncle, the girl just fell asleep, and told that if the uncle is here and she hasn't woken up yet, please ask the uncle to wait in the flower hall, the girl ordered the kitchen to prepare tea, and also found a book for the uncle to pass the time."

Ye Qingcheng only felt a basin of cold water on his head, and poured his excitement all over his heart, "Sleeping?" ”

Fang Yuan is not as good as Fangcao, and hurriedly explained, "Uncle, don't get me wrong, the girl didn't close her eyes all night yesterday, and today she was busy for another day, and she just kept waiting for the uncle to come over, but she couldn't hold it anymore, so she was persuaded by the slaves and maids to go to bed first, and before going to bed, she also told the slaves and maids to wake her up in half an hour at most, so that she could have dinner with the uncle."

Ye Qingcheng was suddenly ashamed, today because of playing chess with Emperor Dezhao, it was indeed delayed.

"Don't wake up Ashu, she finally fell asleep, was woken up, and should be unhappy and blame me."

Fang Yuan hesitated for a while, but still complied, in the past four years, almost all the people who served around Ye Qingshu realized one thing.

When the girl and the uncle disagree, most of the time they will not be wrong to listen to the uncle.

What's more, Fang Yuan was really distressed when he saw Ye Qingshu's haggard and tired appearance.

Fang Yuan sent Ye Qingcheng into the flower hall and withdrew, Ye Qingcheng walked unhurriedly to the round table behind the screen and sat down.

The furnishings in Sanssouci Garden are almost exactly the same as those in the peony courtyard, and so is this round table, where they eat.

There are four kinds of snacks on the round table, four kinds of melons and fruits, in the center is a small pot of warm tea, and in front of the brocade stool on the left hand side is an open book, between the pages of which is a thin agarwood bookmark, hollowed out and carved with the blue character of the seal.

Ye Qingcheng's eyes paused slightly, this is Ye Qingshu's favorite bookmark, a total of a set of twelve, engraved with different words, which was carved and polished by Zhi Qihua himself, and gave Ye Qingshu a twelve-year-old birthday gift.

Ye Qingcheng sat down on the brocade stool, and was about to get the bookmark, when the three characters of Virtue and Hypocrisy with a line heavily drawn with bright red cinnabar came into view.

Ye Qingcheng paused, changed his hand direction, and turned the book back to the cover.

Emperor Xiao's living note?

He has read almost all kinds of history books in the past hundred years, why did he never know that there was an emperor with the title of a moral hypocrite?

Virtuous hypocrite?

What emperor would have such a nondescript honorific title?

Ah Shu deliberately turned to that page and marked it with cinnabar, which must have been for him to read carefully.

Ye Qingcheng's expression became solemn, and he flipped the living note to the place where the bookmark was held and looked at it carefully.

……

……

"Brother—"

Ye Qingcheng was startled, and his hand twisting the pages pulled heavily, and the thin crisp and yellowed pages suddenly hissed and were torn out by him with a long crack.

Ye Qingcheng stood up in a panic, "I'll go find something to glue!" ”

"Brother—"

Ye Qingshu stretched out his hand and gently put his shoulder on his shoulder, and pressed him to sit down, "I'm a little hungry, let's eat first, and I'll talk about this later."

Ye Qingcheng silently exhaled, tried to stabilize his mind, looked Ye Qingshu up and down, and saw that although her eyes were red and swollen, her cheeks were rosy, her expression was peaceful, and she was slightly relieved.

Ye Qingshu didn't eat rice water for a day, he was indeed hungry, and he ate three bowls of rice in a row before putting down his chopsticks.

Ye Qingcheng couldn't eat it at all, so he ate a few bites casually, and then kept serving soup to Ye Qingshu, and when he saw her put down her chopsticks, he poured another cup of tea and handed it to her.

Ye Qingshu rinsed his mouth with tea, wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and then felt comfortable, and said, "Brother should have read the record of the Puppet Jun just now, right?" ”

This German puppet is the twin brother of Emperor Dejing, the third emperor of the Great Xiao, the two are twins, and they are exactly the same, and they have had a very good relationship since childhood.

Later, Emperor Dejing ascended the throne as the emperor, and was very kind to his twin brother, giving him the most rich and wealthy fiefdom, but he was not willing to leave Beijing at all, and often recruited him to accompany the palace.

In the sixth year of Emperor Jing, the German hypocrite suddenly fell ill and died in the palace, Emperor Jing was very sad, and then his temperament changed greatly, well, but it was not a big change, but it was more calm, more diligent, more loving the people, and more energetic, so that even the harem had no time to linger anymore.

After the violent death of his beloved brother, these changes are natural, and the ministers, including the queen concubines of the harem, did not notice that something was wrong.

It wasn't until three years later that the then Duke of Zhiguo became suspicious due to an accidental mistake by the emperor, investigated in many ways, and it took three years to finally rescue Emperor Dejing, who had been under house arrest for six years, in the emperor's bedroom.

But it turned out that the puppet monarch had already united some courtiers, chamberlains, concubines, and guards, and suddenly attacked six years ago and imprisoned Emperor Dejing in the palace.

With his exact appearance, voice, and deliberately imitated demeanor and movements as Emperor Dejing, he unknowingly replaced Emperor Dejing.

After Emperor Dejing was rescued, he naturally regarded it as a great shame and killed the puppet monarch with his own hands.

The king of a country has changed people unconsciously, for six years, whether it is a great shame for the king or the minister, after a cleansing, only a few people know.

These people also kept silent, and the matter was rotten in their hearts.

I don't want to think that more than ten years later, when Emperor Dejing was seriously ill and dying, he missed the puppet monarch who was killed by himself, and he remembered that he never killed his love back then.

recalled that he had also been the emperor for six years, and couldn't bear to let him disappear in the long river of history, so he gave him the title of Puppet Jun and ordered the historian to record him in the living notes of Emperor Xiao.

But it is not preached to outsiders, and only a few people in the royal family can read the living notes, which is also a warning to future generations, and left a last word, if the descendants of the royal family have twin brothers, they will choose their weak ones to drown when they land, in case of other disasters, otherwise it will be unfilial.

Ye Qingshu's right index finger unconsciously swiped the living note, "I've been wondering, why is there half a golden phoenix on your back, is there any special meaning, after reading this history, it suddenly dawned on me."

"Brother, you must have a twin brother, Emperor Dejing's last words, twin brothers, when they land, they must choose their weak to drown, your parents can't bear it, so they secretly sent you to Yingchuan, and left such a mark, so that there is a chance to find it in the future."
