Chapter 1: In the Rain
In the rain, the droplets of water that slapped on the ground shattered, and the clouds in the sky overwhelmed people. Liu Luoyue's cold eyes couldn't distinguish the fluctuations in her emotions, and she couldn't tell whether it was rain or tears on her face.
She fell to her knees, her fists clenched tightly beside her legs. In front of it is a terrifying mass grave, and a roll of straw mat is abruptly placed in front of you. She didn't have the courage to open it, and inside was her mother Zhu Qingluan, the only person in the world who cared about her.
For as long as she can remember, her mother has always been calm, and nothing seems to shake her by half a point. Although she lives in a cold palace and doesn't know much about the outside news, she often listens to the palace maids talk about her mother's past:
After the current emperor ascended the throne, many places have offered congratulatory gifts to show their loyalty. Jiangnan presented three girls from Fengyuelou, and the oiran among them was Zhu Qingluan.
Mother was probably very favored before, looking back and smiling, the six palaces have no color. The current emperor built a palace with a carved wall for her, named Jiang, as Jiang Guifei, and her status is close to that of the queen. The world is curious about the beauty of this concubine, what kind of woman made the emperor so favored, and even picked a word from her own name as a title. It can be described as a flourishing moment, and the scenery is infinite.
The funny thing is that since ancient times, it has been the most ruthless imperial family. In the end, he still chose power, and used a lame excuse to send this concubine into the cold palace, so that he could marry everyone to consolidate his power.
After the world sighed for a while, who would care about the situation of this former favorite concubine. My mother always told me to be patient, not to fight for anything, just to save my life. I originally wanted to spend my life with my mother like this, but no one seems to let her go.
......
In the main hall of Xining Palace, Yu Ruoxi wore a rose-colored light gauze bodice as thin as cicada wings, a goose yellow soft smoke skirt around her waist, and a snow-white embroidered gold thread robe on the outside, revealing fragrant shoulders. This is the now favored Concubine Yu, one of the girls who entered the palace with Zhu Qingluan.
She sat on the top seat, glanced at Zhu Qingluan, who was kneeling on the ground, and said lightly: "My good sister, why are you so embarrassed now, weren't you very beautiful back then?" You say, what is the use of living carefully every day? In this harem, as long as you are powerful and powerful, you have the final say on everything. The delicate voice sounded, so charming that it could drip water.
"Now that I have become a concubine, I thought that this is power, this is power. But do you know what people say about me behind my back? Yu Ruoxi's voice suddenly became hoarse, and her eyes revealed a faint malice: "They said that I was not as graceful as Jiang Guifei back then, sister, you have entered the cold palace, why do you still like to press me?" ”
After speaking, he raised his hand to the palace maid beside him, and said lightly: "In this case, I am executing a slut who stole my jewelry, and it's nothing." As soon as the words fell, the palace maid stepped forward and strangled Zhu Qingluan's neck with a white silk.
There was sadness on her cold face, and the former sisterhood was deep, and I don't know if she saw the wrong person or the heart of the people in this deep palace is changeable. closed his eyes, that's it, it's just a relief, but I don't know if Yue'er can take care of herself. As for him, he probably won't come......
On the other side, in front of the Heart Cultivation Palace, Liu Luoyue stuffed a purse into the eunuch at the door and said, "Gonggong Xiao, please help me pass it on, I really have something to find my father." Gonggong Xiao accepted the purse and sighed helplessly: "Your Royal Highness the Fifth Princess, it's not that our family is deliberately embarrassed, the emperor specially ordered that no one should be allowed to disturb you." Our family doesn't dare to be this master, the fifth princess, please go back. ”
Liu Luoyue knew that it would not work, and turned to leave. She knew that the only person who could save her mother now was her father, who had never met a few times, and Concubine Yu was so pampered and arrogant that her own strength could not save her mother.
Thinking of this, Liu Luoyue turned around and walked towards the back of the Heart Cultivation Palace. He hadn't gone far before he saw a group of guards striding towards him. Liu Luoyue was shocked, turned around and hid behind the rockery, so she was not discovered. She calmed her heartbeat and looked up, and it wasn't long before she spotted a loophole in the patrol.
With a neat turn, Liu Luoyue quickly ran to the window of the Heart Cultivation Palace, pushed her arm to the windowsill, and her light body turned over and entered the hall. Before she could stand firmly, a cold air struck, and a sharp blade of sharp light rested on her neck. When he looked up, a pair of dark eyes met Liu Luoyue's eyes, dressed in a black suit, with a cold aura lingering around him.
Come to think of it, this is the secret guard of the father, and his skills are really extraordinary.
"Who's coming?" A majestic voice sounded, Liu Luoyue turned her head to see that a middle-aged man wearing a bright yellow Nine Dragons golden robe walked slowly, his face was awe-inspiring, and his words were fierce.
Liu Jiangshuo looked at her bright eyes and couldn't help but be stunned: it was too similar, exactly the same as her, but it lacked the thousands of charming charms, and her eyes were full of anxiety.
"Father, my son, please save my mother." Liu Luoyue knelt down and broke the silence with a voice.
"You are?" Liu Jiangshuo spoke.
Liu Luoyue just wanted to answer, but the secret guard next to her withdrew his hand and said calmly: "Fifth princess, the lady in the cold palace is from her." She didn't have time to be shocked, and said repeatedly: "Father, my mother was taken away by the noble concubine, and now her life and death are uncertain, my son begs you to save my mother." ”
As soon as the words fell, Liu Jiangshuo turned to leave, and his majestic voice made people desperate: "It's just a common person's body, what does it have to do with me?" ”
Liu Luoyue got up and wanted to catch up, but she crashed into a powerful chest, it was the secret guard: "Princess, please go back." ”
Liu Luoyue wanted to pass him, but she was always blocked and couldn't move forward. The dark guard reached out and grabbed Liu Luoyue's arm and dragged her out. Liu Luoyue kept struggling: "Get out of the way, let go of me!" After saying that, Liu Luoyue bit his wrist.
The secret guard didn't seem to feel anything, and he didn't let go until outside the hall, and bowed deeply: "Your Highness, please go back." Liu Luoyue couldn't see his expression, worried about Zhu Qingluan, and turned around and ran towards Xining Palace.
But what Liu Luoyue didn't know was that a ray of light crossed the eyes of the dark guard.
The black curtain fell, and Liu Luoyue knocked on the door of Xining Palace. A palace maid walked out: "Yo, isn't this the fifth princess of our Yun Dynasty?" Why, who are you looking for here? Liu Luoyue suppressed her anger and asked in a low voice, "What about my mother?" ”
The palace maid was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "You said that slut, it's a pity, I just died by our concubine Niangniang with a white silk." Counting the time, it should have been thrown into a mass grave to feed the dogs. ”
Hearing this, Liu Luoyue slapped her face twice, turned around and ran towards the mass grave.
......
The rain was still falling, and a voice came from afar: "Princess! "Liuping is Zhu Qingluan's maid of marriage, over the years, Liuping and them have come together for their lives, and they have been loyally following Zhu Qingluan's side.
Liu Luoyue stood up, wiped her face, and said in a trembling voice: "Liuping, help me bury my mother." Liuping cried: "Yes." ”
Covering the last handful of soil and inserting a tombstone, Liu Luoyue knelt with a calm face and said coldly: "Mother, why don't you fight for this power, why do you want to enter the palace?" Why do you fall in love with him, why do you want me to hide my clumsiness, do you know that he ignores you when he hears that you are in danger? Mother, please forgive your daughter for not being filial and not being able to listen to you. ”
Liu Luoyue kowtowed three times, and when she got up again, she couldn't see the emotion on her face. Faintly convection screen said: "Let's go, go back to the palace." ”
