Life passed unhurriedly like this, and Sheng Qingshu seemed to be slowly getting used to following Pei Yi's life every day.

Every day when Pei Yi went to the court, Sheng Qingshu was reluctant to look at Jilagesang's face, so he took advantage of this time to take a turn around the Taihe Palace, and sometimes he could meet some resentful souls that were different from her.

There are concubines who died in the battle of the harem in the previous dynasty, and there are also eunuch slaves who were affected, and after a long time, they slowly became familiar with Sheng Qingshu, and they would also tell her some little secrets that she didn't know.

For example, the unjust souls who choose to stay in the world often have unfulfilled wishes, and over time they will become obsessions and resentments.

However, among this resentful soul, there is also such a saying.

There is a tall man who always wears dark blue clothes and will help these resentful spirits fulfill their wishes, and they privately call him "Lord of the Demons".

But no one had seen him, and the souls that had been helped had disappeared inexplicably.

If you can really fulfill your wish, even if you disappear, you will be willing, Sheng Qingshu didn't speak, and thought silently in her heart.

At this time, Pei Yi went down, and she could only say goodbye to those souls and followed.

After she left, the three or two wandering spirits gathered together and discussed in a whisper: "Have you heard, the night she died, the Demon Lord appeared and secretly took away a handful of her ashes. ”

"Really? Could it be that she will be the next to disappear? "Who knows, it's been four months, and the Demon Lord hasn't appeared again......"

In the afternoon, Pei Yi would take the prince to class, talking about Confucius and Mencius, and the civilization of the Great Sheng Kingdom.

Sheng Qingshu sat on the roof and listened boredly, and caught a glimpse of a faint figure outside the courtyard, which was a spy sent by the emperor to monitor Pei Yi.

It's really stupid, the surveillance is so obvious, she can find out what's more, Pei Yi, who has always been shrewd, Sheng Qingshu complained in her heart.

Suddenly, a touch of rose red broke into his perspective, it was a beautiful woman, wearing a rose-red jacket skirt, learning from the women of the Central Plains, applying grease and powder, hairpins and jade.

But it can be seen at a glance that she is the daughter of Jilagesang, Uyatutu.

In addition to their extremely similar facial features, her slightly darkened skin due to long-term sun exposure also reveals her identity.

In all fairness, she is beautiful, with beautiful facial features, but she insists on learning from the little jasper and taking care of one or the other.

Wu Yatutu rushed into the courtyard regardless of it, shouting Pei Yi's name: "Pei Yi! You come out for me! What kind of man are you, why should you refuse my brother's marriage? ”

Marriage? Sheng Qingshu felt a pain in her heart, it turned out that after going through so much, she would still feel heartache for him, and she was really useless.

Wu Yatutu walked into the house, and seeing this, Sheng Qingshu hurriedly followed her footsteps.

Her beautiful face was full of anger, and her eyes glared at Pei Yi angrily, "Why do you refuse to give marriage, what do you think you are, you are just a dog in our Utu country." ”

Pei Yi didn't care, and always had a gentle smile on his face, as if everything in front of him couldn't affect him in the slightest.

"That's right, Pei Mou knows that he is not worthy of the princess, and because he misses his deceased wife too much, he does not want to delay the princess's good youth, and has told His Majesty that Pei Mou is willing not to marry for life and dedicate his life to the country of Utu."

The righteousness of the words in a passage is awe-inspiring, if he didn't know the inside story, the prince would have praised him for his deep affection and high demeanor.

Sheng Qingshu smiled sarcastically on the side, lying on Pei Yi's shoulder, even though he knew that he couldn't hear it, he still spoke: "That's a good thing to say, Pei Yi, you'd better keep your promise and cut off your children and grandchildren for the rest of your life!" ”

After hearing this, Wu Yatutu sneered again and again: "What kind of affection are you pretending, who in the palace doesn't know that you have betrayed the country to seek glory, if you really love her, why don't you go to hell to accompany her." ”

As if thinking of something, her face showed a hint of disdain, "I'd rather hold a dummy every day than marry me, and my face will be lost when I say it." ”

"Master Pei, what do you think I'll destroy that dummy now, since I can't get it, then no one can think about it" Uyatutu's beautiful face smiled wantonly, and he turned around and was about to leave.

Pei Yi still didn't move at all, but his delicate and elegant face was covered with frost.

"Princess, Pei Mou once collaborated with the enemy and committed treason, he is not a gentleman, whether to do certain things or not, please think twice."

Pei Yi's voice didn't carry any emotion, but Sheng Qingshu shuddered when she heard it, and she even suspected that she had never understood Pei Yi in the past twenty years.

Uyatutu turned around, as if he had heard some joke.

"You threaten me? I'm the emperor's daughter, I don't want anything, let alone a wooden man, even if it's your life, I want it! ”

"Of course, Pei's life is not worth mentioning, but it is not worth betting on the princess for the rest of her life."

Pei Yi still looked like an old god, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, always staring at Wu Yatutu's eyes, and her back was cold when she looked at her.

"Although Utu is in charge of the Central Plains, but the Yunjiang tribe in the west is still eyeing us, I heard a few days ago that they are interested in making peace with us, Your Majesty has no other sisters, and there is only one adult daughter, do you think there will be a second princess to send to kiss?"

Uyatutu's face turned red, his chest kept rising and falling, panting, and he couldn't say a word.

Sheng Qingshu unexpectedly caught a glimpse of the prince and the spy outside the window quietly made a look, and then stepped forward quickly.

"Eldest sister, you are too rude, your father is in charge of your marriage, and you are not ashamed to contradict Teacher Pei here." With a wave of his hand, two secret guards immediately appeared out of nowhere.

"If you don't send the princess back to her house, you can't move around at will, and the maids around the princess can't persuade her to drag her out and kill her in time."

The two secret guards covered Uyatutu's mouth, ignoring her writhing body, and took her out half-dragging and half-dragging.

The prince turned around and saluted Pei Yi, "Teacher Pei, I apologize to you for the eldest sister, she is really spoiled." ”

Pei Yi arched his hand to the prince and smiled, "It's okay, the princess is beautiful and generous, and her demeanor is myriad, Pei's cheap life really can't be matched." ”

The prince smiled and asked again: "My father has set the time for the autumn festival, this is the first autumn festival in my country, and I hope that Mr. Pei can be by Lone's side at that time." ”

Autumn Fall? Sheng Qingshu chuckled in her heart, so much time has passed, is it already September, it turns out that she has been dead for so long.

Thinking of the happy times of Qiu Qiu in the past, Sheng Qingshu's heart felt sour, and the picture of the past appeared in front of her like an illusion.

That was when she was the happiest, and the fox fur jacket that her father and Pei Yi called were all hers.

Pei Yi also took her to gallop in the forest, standing on the edge of the cliff to watch the clouds roll up, watch the sunrise and sunset.

The picture in front of her gradually shattered, and she saw the burning palace again, which was as bright as day even though it was night, as if the sky had been set on fire.

She stood outside the hall and watched her mother being burned to death, her own nurse died under Pei Yi's knife in order to protect herself, and Liuli was taken away by Utu soldiers, and hanged herself when she came back.

Sheng Qingshu felt that someone was choking her throat, unable to breathe, and the feeling of lightheadedness became more and more intense.

She knew that her own demons were at work, but she couldn't get rid of it.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, blowing away the picture in front of him, and the feeling of suffocation disappeared, as if he smelled a trace of sandalwood in a trance.

Sheng Qingshu gasped for breath, and a voice came from the void, "Little warbler, wait for me." ”
