Chapter 202 - Sadness in the heart
The three-day period passed in a flash, and the good day of celebration was coming in a blink of an eye.
Inside and outside the castle of Kyoto, a festive red color stretches from the palace gate to the city gate, covering the red carpet all the way, and the palace is a festive and lively scene.
The new emperor decreed that the whole world would celebrate and amnesty the world.
After holding the enthronement ceremony and canonization ceremony, and accepting the worship of hundreds of officials, Ye Wanruo was sitting on the edge of the bed in Kunning Palace with a little nervousness at this time, her hands subconsciously entangled, as if she was still half-asleep and half-awake, obviously not relieved by the situation in front of her.
Kunning Palace is the dormitory specially chosen by Yu Chi Jingyao for Ye Wanruo, which means the combination of yin and yang, and the meaning of heaven and earth merging.
I saw Ye Wanruo, Moyu's long hair was pulled into a peony bun, and delicate peony flowers were inserted on the left and right sides of the bun, all saying that the peony is the queen of flowers, and the same is true in this harem, which also represents a symbol of status.
The top of the head is firmly wearing the phoenix flying nine days ruyi agate hollow crown, the phoenix with gold inlaid rubies, and the left and right are embellished with agate jadeite, which looks vivid and radiant. The long smoky willow broken crystal purple tassel hairpin is worn on the peony bun, which is more elegant and peerless, and the phoenix is dignified.
On the phoenix robe, the bright blue satin floor is embroidered with eight colorful phoenixes, and in the middle of the colorful phoenix, there are several peonies. The color of the peony is treated plainly and elegantly, and the color changes are vivid, on the contrary, the color of the phoenix is relatively strong, and the contrast between red and green is extremely strong. Chao Feng is extravagantly inlaid with tens of thousands of colorful gems, and the nine phoenixes soaring wantonly look realistic and echo each other.
In the past, Ye Wanruo looked a little soft, but at this time, against the backdrop of this court dress, it is even more majestic. The red lips are like fire, revealing a bit of enchantment, but I can't ignore the coldness between these expressions.
At this time, Ye Wanruo was still in a dream, looking at the bleak autumn outside the window, and the autumn leaves of the trees fell to the ground one after another, Ye Wanruo remembered that day in the secret room of the princess's mansion, when she opened her eyes, Yu Chi Jingyao was already sitting beside her, looking at her affectionately.
Ye Wanruo threw herself into his arms excitedly, glad in her heart that he was safe and sound.
Those pictures that I have seen in the TV series have now become reality, looking at the surrounding splendid sleeping palace, as well as this well-fitting phoenix robe, Ye Wanruo never thought that she would also become the queen and the mother of a country.
"Miss...."
Qiu Qiu walked in from outside the door, and saw Ye Wanruo sitting on the bed with a little nervousness, and couldn't help but smile and speak: "Miss, you and the emperor have gone through so many calamities, and finally achieved a positive result, what are you nervous about?" ”
"You girl, I'll tell Jing Yao tomorrow, hurry up and promise you to Zimo, I want to see if you're nervous?"
Ye Wanruo rolled her eyes at Qiuqiu, and laughed at Qiuqiu without showing weakness, but the tension in her heart eased a lot.
At the mention of Zimo, a little tenderness flashed in Qiuqiu's eyes, and at the same time, a suspicious flush rose on his cheeks, and he said coquettishly: "Miss knows how to make fun of the slave maid, look at who will accompany you when the slave and maid get married!" ”
"Oh like this, it's better to be an old girl by my side, when Zimo becomes an old man, and he still guards Jingyao, watching you see through the autumn water every day, how about it?"
Seeing that the previous Qingqiu had become such a shy appearance, Ye Wanruo suddenly felt teasing, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became more and more obvious.
"The slave is ignoring you!"
Saying that, Qiu Qiu walked towards the door, only halfway through walking, he came back again, and blessed Ye Wanruo: "Just now, the emperor sent Gonggong De to come, saying that the young lady should rest for a while, and the emperor will come over later!" Thinking about it, the young lady was hungry all morning, and the slave went to the small kitchen to find something to eat for the young lady! ”
After finishing speaking, she walked out again without stopping, as if she was afraid that Ye Wanruo would make fun of her again, which made Ye Wanruo's smile even more wanton.
It's just that Ye Wanruo's smile didn't last long, and she froze her smile because of the black-clothed man who suddenly appeared in front of her, instantly raised her vigilance, and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?" ”
"General Huwei of the Beihai Kingdom--Kang Tong see the princess!"
General Huwei?
Seeing the man leaning over and kneeling down in front of him, Ye Wanruo glanced at him indifferently, her eyebrows tightened, and she asked in a slightly solemn and suspicious voice, "You are General Huwei?" Before that...."
"Back to the princess, you are talking about General Zhao, right? General Zhao is dead! ”
"Dead? How so? ”
Hearing Kang Tong's words, Ye Wanruo's heart sank suddenly, and this sudden news made Ye Wanruo's eyes full of incredulity.
"The princess didn't know that General Zhao disobeyed the king's orders privately, and the king sent messages many times, but General Zhao ignored them. In desperation, the king sent people here to arrest General Zhao, and when the battle was made, General Zhao died because he was outnumbered, and now his subordinates protect the safety of the princess! ”
Staying safe?
Hehe, that's a nice thing to say, but in fact, it wasn't Beihaijun who sent her to spy on her!
I didn't have a good impression of Beihaijun, but when I heard Kang Tong's words at this time, I was even more indifferent to this only remaining trace of blood relationship.
Although Kang Tong spoke rigorously, it still made Ye Wanruo suddenly remember that since Bei Cheng'an left the Southern Qin Kingdom, he had never heard General Zhao talk about the Beihai Kingdom, and even Ye Wanruo had repeatedly questioned it.
Now it seems that it is not Beihai Guo who let her go, but General Zhao chose to remain silent after receiving the order. But what was the purpose of his risky behavior? Could it be that he recognized Jingyuan, who was dressed as a woman and a man, who saved him?
That day, she was forced to leave the palace early because of Shen Yishu's tricks, and thought that General Zhao had left in the air, even if she hadn't seen General Zhao in the past few days, she never thought that he would die like this!
"You're not here just to tell me this, are you?"
Ye Wanruo's cold voice came.
Every time she saw someone from Beihai Kingdom, Ye Wanruo would think of her true identity, especially on such an important day, which made Ye Wanruo's mood plummet.
In the past three days, it has actually been the most torturous three days for Ye Wanruo, who was about to marry Yu Chi Jingyao and become the mother of a country admired by thousands of women, so she should be happy.
But the tiger talisman that was stolen from the imperial study that day was like a hot potato to Ye Wanruo, which made her a little overwhelmed.
Originally, I wanted to give this tiger talisman to General Zhao to take back to Beihai Country to make a mission, but recently Ye Wanruo had been hesitating, and reason told her that if the tiger talisman was given to Beihai Kingdom, it would mean that the lifeblood of Southern Qin Kingdom was in the hands of Beihai Kingdom. But if you don't give it to them, how can Beihaijun give up, and then prove her identity when the time comes, it will still end badly.
Now the appearance of this Kang Tong has once again pulled Ye Wanruo back from the dream, and she has to face this cruel reality.
"Back to the princess, this is what the king ordered his subordinates to give to the princess!"
As he spoke, Kang Tong took out a letter and a porcelain vase from his arms and handed them to Ye Wanruo with both hands.
After a while, Ye Wanruo took the letter from Kang Tong's hand.
The letter was written by Beihai Jun himself, to the effect that according to the current situation faced by the Southern Qin State, he instructed Ye Wanruo to know how to use this opportunity to find the tiger talisman as soon as possible, and if necessary, manipulate Yu Chi Jingyao to become a puppet emperor, and the medicine in this porcelain bottle is the final destination of Yu Chi Jingyao.
What Ye Wanruo didn't expect was that Beihai Jun actually threatened Ye Wanruo's true identity, if Ye Wanruo didn't do what he ordered, not to mention that Beicheng'an's crown prince position was in jeopardy, even she Ye Wanruo didn't want to be alone.
I remember that Lishu once talked about the affairs of Wuzhou Kingdom, which made Ye Wanruo think of the greed and intentions of Beihai Kingdom, and Ye Wanruo at this time was ashamed of having the blood of Beihai Kingdom. The behavior of the Beihai State at this time was not just as simple as self-preservation, but wanted to include the entire Southern Qin State in the bag, so as to further realize the desire to unify the four countries.
The unification of the Four Kingdoms is a fantasy and a fool's dream, and it is even more dangerous to win if you want to use Ye Wanruo's chess piece to control the overall situation.
At this time, the fingers holding the letterhead had turned white, and the cold aura emanating from Ye Wanruo's body could feel even Kang Tong, who was kneeling on the ground, and buried his whole head a little deeper.
"Get out!"
After a while, the silence between the two was finally broken by Ye Wanruo, and there seemed to be a little sadness in the cold voice.
"Princess, the king also said...."
Thinking of Beihaijun's entrustment, Kang Tong, who was kneeling on the ground, continued with a hard head.
It's just that before he finished speaking, he heard Ye Wanruo's hysterical voice rushing out, roaring at Kang Tong: "I let you out, didn't you hear?" Get out of here...."
Thinking that he Kang Tong was also the dignified Tiger General of the Beihai Kingdom, he was actually scolded by Ye Wanruo angrily, and his face immediately turned slightly gloomy, but he still bowed to Ye Wanruo, turned around and disappeared.
Bei Yangyang's mind is vicious and cunning, and even his blood relatives can calculate and use it, which is enough to show that his ambition has made him lose his mind, and this kind of behavior that will not give up in order to achieve his goal, Ye Wanruo knows that if he does not do what he asks, the final result is likely to be a dead fish.
At this time, Ye Wanruo's only remaining illusion was completely destroyed by this letter and the arrival of Kang Tong, in the face of the intricate entanglement of love and identity, Ye Wanruo's eyes were slightly dull, and after some struggles and trade-offs, Ye Wanruo had secretly made a decision in her heart.
Perhaps Ye Wanruo was too focused in deep thought, and didn't notice that the mollusk-looking earthworm that quickly crawled in from outside the Kunning Palace and quickly moved towards Ye Wanruo.
It wasn't until it stopped at Ye Wanruo's feet that the little guy who looked like an earthworm miraculously grew bigger little by little, until his whole body became red, and he spit out a red letter from his mouth and hissed, that Ye Wanruo noticed its existence.
After two lifetimes, Ye Wanruo was particularly afraid of snakes, especially when she looked at the red snake that was close at hand and still growing, she felt even more frightened.
Just before she could scream, the snake had already quickly bit towards Ye Wanruo's leg, and the pain hit, just for a moment, Ye Wanruo felt as if her body had been unloaded with all her strength, and finally fell weakly on the bed until she lost all consciousness....
