Chapter 18: Forgotten by Others

The trumpet sounded in my ears.

With heroism, with compassion, with a lonely courage.

Also took away the "light".

They ran in the direction of the known, the "unknown end".

I watched them go.

Watch him and his 700,000 troops go to the gates.

Watching them step by step away from my sight.

Watch them slowly fade out of my view.

Watch them disappear into the sky until they are never to be found again.

The compliments around them walked away bustling after they pulled out.

And I stood for a long time in the direction they left, not knowing what I was thinking.

The maid beside him asked the coachman to bring the carriage.

I motioned for him to leave.

Slowly look back at the gate.

The old inky door.

Bulky and suffocating shackles.

The city is full of disgusting schemes.

swallowed up the reason, conscience of most people.

Maybe soon I'll be one of those devoured.

I suddenly wanted to catch up with them and catch up with him.

Even if I sleep in the open in the future, even if the future is not safe, I am willing.

I looked down at the ground beneath my feet, and words of temptation came to my mind.

"Just one step, just one step, you can stay away from all strife, and you will be free.

Come on! Come on! Take a step to break free from all constraints. ”

My feet were eager to lift up slowly, as if they were about to run towards the vast spring day, the fields and countryside.

But it was quickly retracted at the moment of falling.

I can't!

Behind me the country, the people, my brother, he.

What if I leave them!

Ah Di is still young and easy to control.

The foundation of the country is unstable, and relatives are ready to move.

The court is chaotic and deceitful.

I was overwhelmed by this responsibility.

I'm stuck.

Trapped in this city.

Trapped under imperial power.

I closed my eyes and forgot everything, and walked back to the city.

No one knew that the moment I turned around, I left behind my few expectations.

Eager for someone to pick it up!

I long for someone to take me away at all costs.

"Let's go back to the palace!"

"Yes."

I embarked on the "set route" alone.

The side was empty.

Rushing forward without hesitation.

It was much later that I realized that it was my only chance.

It was an opportunity to leave everything and go away with him.

Yes and he has a chance to have a result.

……

When I woke up in the morning, I saw that the palace was full of joy, so I asked, "Mama, what day is today?" ”

"Princess, today is August 15th, Mid-Autumn Festival!"

I was stunned and asked, "Really?" ”

Mid-Autumn Festival, he set off for the border for a few days.

Since he went to join the army, the days when the two of us have seen each other have become less and less.

It's even more so to meet for the holidays.

In previous years, it was a lonely person.

But this year, fortunately, I have my brother by my side.

After a long time, I opened my mouth and called, "Mama, go see my brother!" ”

"Yes."

I walked out of the temple gate and saw the palace maids on both sides decorating the palaces and halls.

This is the first Mid-Autumn Festival after the restoration of the country.

Also, my first Mid-Autumn Festival with my brother.

At night, the Chang'an Hall is brightly lit.

The ladies of the palace laid out the dishes, and the ministers sat below.

I watched them sit beside each other as they made a toast.

Brother nodded in response.

The silk and bamboo strings sounded, the singing and dancing did not stop, and the cup was changed.

No one remembers that on Chinese New Year's Eve 3 years ago, in the same place, on the same night, there was a river of blood here.

No one remembers that there was a person who went to Guanwai to ensure their wealth and prosperity.
