Dongchen Kingdom, inside Haotian City.

Just after the end of the year, although the wind and snow have stopped, the weather is even colder.

The snow is not cold, the snow is cold, that's the truth!

Half a month ago, Haotian City, the imperial city of Dongchen Kingdom, had several major events in a row.

The Queen Mother passed away, and the whole country mourned.

Emperor Chu Qi was heartbroken, mournful and weeping, moving the heavens and the earth, all the ministers and scholars have written speeches to mourn the queen mother, and at the same time do not forget to praise the monarch for his love and filial piety, which is really an example of the country.

The strange thing is that on the night of the queen mother's death, the princess hall caught fire, burning the entire Haotian City red.

Another one, it is also very strange.

Soon after the death of the Queen Mother, Princess Yu'er also died of illness.

Because the queen mother loved her the most during her lifetime, Chu Qi ordered the princess to be buried with the queen mother, because the underground palace has not yet been built, so the coffin was transported to the imperial mausoleum, which also caused a lot of controversy.

At night, Chu Feng sat alone on the eaves of the Qinzheng Hall with a pot of wine, which was the highest and could vaguely see the decaying palace in the distance.

On the day the princess hall caught fire, after learning that Yu'er was still inside, Chu Feng ran there desperately, but was stopped outside the princess hall by the guards, and later saw that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, Chu Qi ordered the guards to take Chu Feng and the concubines in the palace out of the palace, until the blizzard ushered in and completely extinguished the fire, and then took them back.

But the princess hall no longer saw the style of the past, and burned all those finely carved, magnificent, and beautiful ones to ashes, and even the west palace was also sold, and a few pavilions and pavilions were burned, even the white snow could not hide the black decay and withering.

It's like after a grand and bright fireworks, only a night of choking smoke is left, and the eyes are full of gloom.

Just after the New Year, the weather was a little colder than before the New Year, Chu Feng took a sip of wine, it was hot, and it was a little warmer.

"Does it look like a turtle shell?" suddenly remembered the girl's voice, pink cheeks, like a porcelain doll, smiling at him.

Chu Feng looked at the empty position beside him, lowered his head and smiled bitterly, there would never be anyone to accompany him here to watch the stars, drink, and chat.

Once there was a lively scene around him, the talented and yellow Pianpian Gongzi Qingxiang, the elegant and elegant first-hand wine Qingyu, and the clever and lovely Yu'er who had a marriage contract with him.

But now, Qingyu is dead, and Yu'er is also dead.

Qingshang was sent to the Yexiang Pavilion as a slave by the law, and the three scholars who accompanied him were also sent away for a reason.

The dead are dead, the walking is gone, and they are scattered~ they are all scattered~

In the huge palace, he was the only one left.

He has never been smart, and he has no power to hear and see, and he doesn't even know how Yu'er died?

Some people say that Yu'er failed to escape the fire and was burned to ashes, some people say that the Queen Mother died of illness, Yu'er was stimulated and died of wind and cold, and some people say that Yu'er was secretly executed by the holy decree of her father.

These days, he has been wondering what went wrong, until he saw in the Yexiang Pavilion that only a handful of bones were left to be bullied, and he brushed the toilet with his frostbite-covered hands, and suddenly his ears rang with what his father had said to him.

"As my only prince, your only way to survive is to inherit the throne and sit firmly on the throne, otherwise you will not be able to protect anyone!"

The cold wind was bitter, and Chu Feng poured wine into his mouth violently, but it was difficult to hide his loneliness.

How ridiculous, the father and son he has always longed for, brothers, friends and brothers, but in this royal family he has become flesh and blood and wants to kill!

Imperial power!

Born in an imperial family, you can only protect yourself by holding imperial power, and those who are connected to your blood are all threats and competitors.

No wonder the first emperor killed all his sons, no wonder his father detained the first emperor and forced him to death.

As a prince, if you want to survive, you must fight, grab, and become strong.

Other than that, it's a dead end!

The Queen Mother died, and the entire Haotian City was hung with mourning cloths, and it was strictly forbidden to sing, dance, drink and play, and the whole country mourned for three years.

It happened that the New Year was approaching, according to the customs of Dongchen Kingdom, the poor people would buy some red lanterns, and the red cloth would be pasted to decorate the façade, so that the picture would be festive and lively, but who knew that the Queen Mother would die at this time, so she had to hide all those red and color, and I am afraid that it will not be used for the next three years.

It has only been a few days since the death of the Queen Mother, the fire in the princess's palace, and the death of Princess Yu'er...... Rao is a poor man in cloth who doesn't care about the court, and he also noticed a little weirdness.

Naturally, there are a lot of versions, after all, these things happen together, which can't help but make people feel faintly uneasy, revealing a sense of depression that the wind and rain are about to come and the wind is full of buildings.

Just like the purging turmoil in Yanfu ten years ago, it was also overnight, the Yanfu Mansion with power and opposition overturned overturned, making everyone dumbfounded.

Now that the Empress Dowager of the West Palace has passed away, the Yan Mansion has no biggest backer, even if the Yan family still has the god of war Yan Qi, but the Yan Mansion is withering, General Yan's mother and wife also passed away a few months ago, and now Princess Yu'er, who represents the new power of the Yan Mansion, has also followed.

Some people even suspect that Princess Yu'er's mysterious illness and death must have been instructed by Emperor Chu Qi, after all, Chu Qi had just ascended the throne, and he finally got rid of the shackles of the West Palace, and he was unwilling to let Yu'er become the second West Palace.

The courtiers have always been the best at observing words and feelings, tending to be inflammatory, like grass on the wall, falling with the wind, seeing the situation of Yanfu, they have alienated Yan Qi.

Although the Queen Mother passed away, it is strictly forbidden to sing, dance, drink and play, but for the New Year, it is still necessary to walk around to pay New Year's greetings, and other mansions are full of people coming and going, and the door is like a lively scene in the city, but only the Yan Mansion is deserted.

After Yu'er jumped off the cliff, Yan Qi ordered people to look for it at the bottom of the cliff, but the wind and snow were combined, the road was closed by heavy snow, the weather was cold, the water dripped, and it was very dangerous to go down to the bottom of the cliff, and it took two days to go down to the bottom of the cliff.

At the bottom of the cliff was a sea of forests, covered with thick snow, and after such a long time, layers of ice and snow had already buried all traces, and they searched for days and nights in the vast snow forest, but finally made no progress.

Later, the emperor personally ordered him to return quickly, and Yan Qi had to return.

Although Yan Qi returned, he ordered his subordinates to continue the search.

Even though the emperor had made a decree and announced Princess Yu'er's death, Yan Qi still did not give up.

He always felt that she was still alive.

Although he knew that falling from such a high place and encountering such bad weather would be more than lucky, and the probability of survival was very small, as long as her body was not found, everything was possible.

These days, what Yan Qi is most looking forward to hearing is the news from the search force at the bottom of the cliff, and what he is most afraid of hearing is also this news.

He owes Qisheng too much, although he always says that he wants to make up for it as much as possible, but he can only watch her jump into the abyss.

Just like on her day, she returned the flesh to the bones, and said to him coldly and decisively: The relationship between father and daughter is broken, and the grievances are cleared.

The cold wind howled outside, rolling up the snow on the ground, the huge Yan Mansion was deserted, a dim lamp in the study, a lonely shadow, holding a glass of cold wine in his hand.

His eyes were sad, and he muttered to himself: "It's the New Year, seven years old." "I want to talk to more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
