Chapter 1 Wind and dew, cold plums like snow
This time the situation of the crossing was even worse than she had imagined, and it was even longer.
She often woke up in the middle of the night, and when she woke up, the fear of the nightmare lingered throughout her body, she slowly slipped against the wall, she bent her feet, buried her face in her knees, and wept loudly, and those tears fell on the thatch on the ground, and were sucked in, leaving no trace.
It seemed that it only took time to wake up, and she had to endure the pain that she shouldn't have to endure.
What's going on? She thinks that she has not done anything wrong that hurts heaven and reason, why does God punish her again and again?
This torture room was dark and damp, mixed with the smell of rancid and damp, her messy hair was like straw, her dirty face could no longer see the original handsomeness, her eyes floated out of the window, it seemed that only this small window still showed a glimmer of hope, the cold wind outside the window, large snowflakes like torn cotton wool fell, she stood up again with difficulty, after two punishments, her delicate fingers were full of needles, and she was shocked to see herself, looking at the snowflakes outside, She suddenly remembered that the little servants in the torture room were discussing how to prepare for the Layue Festival, and it must be the winter solstice.
The snowflakes are getting bigger and bigger, and they are getting slow and urgent.
In the past few days of coma, she thought that as long as she woke up, she would return to the world she lived in, and when she opened her eyes, she could see the dumplings made by her mother on the table, and she could no longer enjoy the misty warmth.
Thoughts drifted into the distance, her modern name is Qianshan Xue, but no one in this world will call her name anymore.
Finally, she stopped being obsessed and told herself the truth.
She couldn't go back.
The dust and smoke are like a dream, Xiao Xiao locks the window on a cold day, and she has been forgotten by time in the other side of the previous life.
I vaguely remembered that the first time she crossed was also the winter solstice.
Thirteen years, she wore to this dynasty, a world she didn't know, from the beginning of despair to hope, and then from hope to despair, and so on, and so on, the taste of this is like a hot fire just ignited in her heart, instantly doused by ice water, completely complete, her heart is like a thousand ice, completely cold all over every crevice of her limbs, she is a little tired.
That time, the village was invaded by bandits, the bandits burned and looted, the incident happened too suddenly, the villagers fled in panic, and the bandits chased unhurriedly, only a short moment, the village was suddenly on fire, making people feel sad, in a hurry, hiding in a hidden cave.
After all, she was not so lucky, starved for three days, she thought that the bandits had left the village, so she quietly went to the village to find food, and was caught by the bandits when she entered the village, because she was young and dressed as a boy, the bandits did not want to raise a mixed idler, she had lost interest, and sold to the slave owner, after experiencing one failed escape after another, she was finally sold by the slave owner like a livestock.
Unlike the usual employers, this time a well-dressed old woman came, and all the slaves' eyes lit up and they all vied with each other.
The old woman's gaze swept around slightly, and finally her eyes stayed on Qianshan Xue's body, she paced back and forth and looked at her carefully, and Qianshan Xue's indifferent eyes seemed to have long been used to it, and she looked at her calmly, and after a long silence, the old woman whispered to the slave owner as if she was exploring something.
Looking at the old woman's clothes and her dress, Qianshan Xue could be sure that this old woman was from a big family.
After listening to the slave master's introduction, the old woman smiled meaningfully, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes hid the mystery, and after hesitating for a moment, she smiled and smiled before she slowly spoke, "It's you, come with me." ”
Qianshan Xue was slightly stunned, and before she could react, the old woman had already made a deal with the slave owner, handed over the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, and she was taken away.
It's just that she didn't know that on the carriage not far away, two deep eyes had taken in everything, and after a while, he said lightly, "Go home." ”
After entering the house, the old woman led people to the supervision bureau to enter the file, rewarded a few errand boys, and when everything was arranged, she led people to turn around and leave, not wanting to stay longer.
"Wait."
Behind him, the shrill voice of Anji, the consul of the Supervision Bureau, sounded.
He carefully looked at the thousands of mountains and snow, and then swept his eyes, and said to Wang Xiniang with compassion, "Wang Xiniang, everything has to be according to the rules, let him go to the examination room to verify his identity." ”
Wang Xiniang smiled contemptuously, without any intention of backing down, "This is the person the master has a crush on, what's the problem?" ”
"Wang Xiniang, don't make it difficult for the old slave."
Anji smiled coldly, suppressing the raging anger in her heart, although Wang Xiniang was King Xuan's nurse, but Anji was the queen's person, so she didn't take her seriously.
"You're embarrassing your master."
Wang Xiniang did not back down, her voice was calm, the two confronted each other silently, the atmosphere was suddenly solemn and terrible, in such a calm, but there was a bad spirit, and it seemed that the slightest careless battle would start.
At this time, an attendant hurried over, and he hurriedly urged, "Wang Xiniang, the master ordered someone to send it to him quickly." ”
Anji was stunned when he heard this, he was slightly stunned, and after a little thought, he let go, his eyes stared at Qianshan Xue fiercely, and the fierce gaze seemed to poke her out of a hole before he stopped, and snorted coldly, "You'd better not be planted in the hands of the old slave." ”
Out of the Supervision Bureau, Wang Xiniang explained the precautions in the house to Qianshan Xue all the way, and she knew that she had entered the Xuanwang Mansion, the third son of the emperor.
Everything was so logical, she finally became a eunuch in King Xuan's mansion.
The next days in the palace were more leisurely than she imagined, because King Xuan never returned to the palace, and it is said that he wandered around the wild flowers outside all day long, and the princess of the house flower was a widow.
The days went on like this.
Qianshan Xue often climbed the palace wall in the middle of the night, sat on it and looked into the distance, every time she was homesick, even though she knew she couldn't see anything.
That night, there was a banquet in the palace, and the mansion became lively, and the most important thing was that Xiao Xuanyu, the king of Xuan, came back.
Just a quick glance, Xiao Xuanyu's slender and jade figure is unforgettable, Xiao Xuanyu looked at her intentionally or unintentionally during the banquet, and Qianshan Xue didn't know it, she spilled him all over when she served tea and poured wine, she hurriedly helped him wipe it, Xiao Xuanyu's lips hooked, and his eyes flashed so evil that he had no heart barriers, "Warm the bed for Ye tonight." ”
After the sound fell, he dragged her over and let her sit on his lap.
Qian Shanxue jumped up in fright, knelt on the ground, and said in a trembling voice, "The slave offended the master just now, I hope the master will punish him, the slave can't sleep, the slave is..... Eunuch. ”
Xiao Xuanyu was surprised, looked at her, and said with a wicked smile: "Really? Then I'll look it up. ”
When Qianshan Xue heard this, she was so frightened that she stepped back, and everyone present looked at the excitement and coaxed, "Third master, pick him up so that the brothers can also see the long knowledge." ”
Xiao Xuanyu turned his head suddenly, his eyes were full of anger, his eyes were like a sharp sword, trying to penetrate those few people who were coaxing, he killed with a single eye, and several squirts suddenly shut up, and they didn't dare to come out.
In the next moment, Qianshan Xue was dragged and thrown into the bedroom by Xiao Xuanyu, Qian Shanxue was very scared, she was a pretending man, in case she was discovered by King Xuan, if she was not beaten half to death, she would also be tortured by him half to death, you must know that this body is only thirteen years old, in modern times, it is a minor, protected by the law.
Just as she was thinking, she suddenly felt a chill on her body, Xiao Xuanyu had already ripped off the placket on her chest, and she shed tears in shame.
"What is a man crying for? Oh, by the way, you're not a man, you're a eunuch. Xiao Xuanyu looked at her contemptuously, and a disdainful smile spread across his lips.
Qianshan Xue was stunned and stopped crying, that's right, this body is the age when it is difficult to distinguish between male and female from the appearance, but in another year or two, it will reveal flaws, and now while the body has not changed, it is a day to hide it.
"What's your name? How old is it? ”
Xiao Xuanyu's indifferent voice became more and more chilling.
Qianshan Xue hurriedly bowed to the ground and bowed, "The slave has no name, they all call me Xiaobai, and the slave will be fourteen years old in a few days." ”
Her brain contains extremely complex emotions, she lowered her head to hide her thoughts, she thought about it, because she looks white, "Xiaobai" has always been her nickname, just call it this.
Xiao Xuanyu was suspicious, looked carefully with unclear meaning, saw that her skin was white and snowy, and secretly said in his heart, if he was not a eunuch, how amazing would he be?
"You're really white."
Xiao Xuanyu's voice finally remembered after a moment of silence.
Qianshan Xue lowered her eyes, didn't dare to look up at him, and saw that there was no reaction from above, she naturally didn't dare to get up, and after waiting for a long time, she felt that the surroundings were quiet and abnormal, and suddenly raised her head, there was no figure of Xiao Xuanyu for a long time.
Out of the dormitory, she walked aimlessly, she didn't like the world, and she didn't like her incompetent self, the only thing she could do was to forget the original world.
Suddenly smell a dark fragrance in the distance, it is plum blossoms, I heard that the plum garden on the west side of the palace is famous, she has long wanted to explore the flowers, and now there is no one around, so explore the plum blossoms at night.
With the fragrance of flowers, all the way to the search, the wind and dew sandwich plum blossoms like smoke and mist, blowing to her feet, all the prosperity to the end is this retreating bright withering.
Qianshan Xue stood for a long time, until her feet were frozen numb before she had the idea of going back, only to turn around, the rockery in the plum garden came from the sound, Qianshan Xue concentrated, ear listened, in modern times she is an adult, of course she knows what it is.
The night was so quiet, I only listened to the plum blossoms next to me falling by the force of the collision, and no one noticed that the pale red petals fell all over the ground.
No one knows except the full moon in the sky.
The woman panted unscrupulously, one after another, she was shy when she heard it, who was so bold that she dared to fornicate in the palace, and was about to leave, suddenly the two people came out of the rockery and continued to move, the courage was too big, in the moonlight, from the gap between the plum branches, she saw the woman's face clearly, it was the princess, and the man beside her was one of the princes who left the banquet early, but she couldn't remember the honorific name of the prince for a while.
Qianshanxue's throat tightened, and she was so frightened that she covered her mouth and didn't dare to make a sound, she couldn't make a sound, this was an ancient time that could lose her head at any time, she didn't want to stay longer, so she quietly turned around and slowly withdrew.
"Who? Who's there? Come out. The man roared, straightened his clothes, and walked towards her.
Thousands of mountains and snow hid behind a boulder, so nervous that my heart beat to my throat.
One step, two steps, three steps, seeing that she was about to go to the place where she was hiding, she closed her eyes sadly and waited for the rhythm of death, suddenly, "meow", a cat pounced on the man, he flashed sideways, narrowly avoided, but was still scratched by the cat neck.
At this time, the princess trembled and dared to flash out from behind the man, she pretended to be calm and said: "It's okay that the fourth master is just a cat." ”
After speaking, the princess took out a silk handkerchief to wipe it for him, the man's figure flashed, and he stopped him, "I see that the third brother is a little aware, let's not meet recently." ”
The princess was silent for a while, and a trace of imperceptible reluctance flashed in her eyes, but she was afraid that the other party would find out, so she agreed, and after a while, the two left separately.
This box, thousands of mountains and snow escaped, she ran lifelessly, the fragrance of flowers in the wall is still puffy, this was originally a good elegance of appreciating flowers and chanting poems, but it was up in the wind and moon, maybe life is the so-called fate, many things in her future may not be this flower thing can change.
It's just that at the time, she didn't realize it.
Those petals rushed to her face, like a cut and broken ice cream flower, light and windy, and as soon as her sleeve robe moved, the petals spun slowly in the air flow and threw themselves into her arms, falling into the fragrance of a fine cloud.
The beauty of the plum blossom falling, intoxicated the eyes, but also poignant eyes, slowly drifting away, taking away her endless thoughts, just when she forgot to fly, there was a figure not far behind her for a long time, she didn't realize it.
The figure is against the shallow moonlight, the corners of his lips are hooked, and the smile is fatal.
Everything is calm, it seems that the scene of the plum garden has gradually forgotten, after a few days, the palace entered the thief at night, and then a large-scale search was launched, when the search was found, the eunuchs were trembling and afraid, but Cheshan Xue was calm, at this time she did not perceive the arrival of the crisis.
The steward and eunuch searched carefully one by one, and when they found Qianshan Xue's bunk, one of the attendants looked at her with compassion, Qianshan Xue had no impression of him, but the mole on the wing of his nose was special, and he had to look at it a few more times, just when she was distracted, suddenly the attendant pretended to take a handful behind her, she trembled, felt that something was wrong, and before she could think about it, he shouted loudly, "King Xuan, I found this." ”
Qianshan Xue's heart tightened, this is not her thing.
A cloth brocade scroll had been held tightly in Xiao Xuanyu's hand, he looked at it carefully, his brows were tightly locked, and the next moment he shouted: "Someone, send him to the prison department." ”
What was written on it, Qianshan Xue felt that it was something important, and she knew that she had been framed.
