"No more sleep?" Chu Li looked at the little girl who was only wearing a thin middle coat.

But the silver silk charcoal in the house was prosperous, and Jun Chaoyun didn't feel cold at all.

"I don't sleep."

Chu Li took the person into his arms, "Today is your birthday." ”

"Birthday?" Jun Chaoyun was stunned.

In her memory, it was as if she had never had a birthday.

None of the Chen family remembered what day her birth was, and she was not a child of the Chen family, so she did not know exactly when she was born.

After returning to Yong'an Bo's Mansion, Jun Hong and Luo's were very disappointed with her appearance, and no one mentioned her birthday anymore.

Maybe it's also for fear of provoking others to gossip, and everyone will automatically ignore this matter every time it comes to their birthday.

Luo remembered, but several times he turned his head and forgot about something else, and then told her to wait until the next year for the birthday party.

In this way, year after year, it was the nineteenth year of Xuanning, and on the eve of her birthday, she was taken into the nine-layer dark prison, and after a long time, even she forgot about herself.

Chu Li gently reported to the fragile little girl in his arms, "You were originally born in winter. ”

"I almost forgot."

She was born in winter, close to Chinese New Year's Eve, and it is often said that children born in winter must have a full birthday before they are really one year older.

"This is my first birthday with you."

"Thank you, Ah Li." Jun Chaoyun said softly.

"Let's see." Chu Li took out a bone whistle from his cuff.

"It looks like a wolf's tooth." Jun Chaoyun carefully studied the result in his hand.

"Yes, made of wolf teeth."

"The crescent moon pattern on it is the totem of the Shadow Guard, and if you encounter a situation in the future, you will blow this bone whistle."

"I always feel like I've seen this somewhere?" Jun Chaoyun touched the bone whistle, but he felt very familiar.

"I remember one year at the palace banquet, His Majesty gave each noble lady a reward."

"What I got seems to be a jade bracelet, much simpler than other noble ladies', there seems to be a crescent moon pattern on it, I thought it might be because my status is not high, so the things that the palace rewarded me are relatively simple."

"It's very similar to this one."

"At that time, many people said that I actually received such a simple jade bracelet."

"You sent it?" Jun Chaoyun suddenly understood.

"Qingyin has been helping me keep this jade bracelet for me later, so I can carry it with me."

"I remember, there were times when I was in danger, but it seemed like someone was secretly helping me."

"Is it your man?" Jun Chaoyun asked.

"Yes, the jade bracelet was specially made for you, and I didn't find a suitable opportunity to give it to you, so I took the opportunity of the palace banquet to send it to you."

"So, Qingyin was also arranged by you."

"She told me at the time that the jade bracelet was a gift from the Son of Heaven, and wearing it might be able to keep me safe, and that jade bracelet looked inconspicuous, so I thought it would be okay to carry it, so I would take the jade bracelet with me when I went out."

"When I was drugged and caught, Qingyin threw me into the carriage and dealt with the people who were chasing me alone."

"It's a pity that there were too many people at that time, and I didn't escape."

"Later, I saw Qing Yin's corpse in the Ninth Layer Prison."

"I was very sad at the time, and I didn't think about some things deliberately."

"I thought it was my luck that got better, but I didn't expect that it wasn't the gods who blessed me, but that you kept people silently protecting me." Jun Chaoyun smiled bitterly.

"It seems that I used to be really naïve."

"This bone whistle will blow it when you are in danger, and the nearby Shadow Guard will definitely try their best to come when they hear this sound."

"Ah Yun, I was always afraid of injuring you before, I was worried that you were afraid that I would hate me."

"deliberately alienated you, thinking that they could protect you, but still let those people take advantage of the loophole."

"Ah Yun, not this time." Chu Li held the person firmly in his arms.

"Hmm."

"Okay, okay, let go, it's too tight." Jun Chaoyun struggled in his arms.

"I'm going to get my makeup."

"Qingyin is still waiting for me to go back."

Chu Li let go of the little girl, "It's too cold outside, I'll send you back." ”

"Although some people clearly said that they wanted to live with me, who knew that it was two wings."

"Why are you afraid that I will eat you?" Jun Chaoyun said angrily.

"yes, what is going on in Ah Yun's head every day, who knows?" Chu Li meant something.

"Don't laugh at me."

"Since you're already mine, can't I even think about it?"

"Okay." Chu Li said helplessly, put the person on the small couch, and wrapped her tightly in the fox fur in the chamber where Jun Chaoyun was hugged.

At the dressing table, the woman in the bronze mirror is delicate and moving.

faded away from the past youthfulness, the body began to grow like a strip, the eyes were clear and warm, the thin lips were lightly pursed, and there was a bit of perseverance.

Chu Li took the wooden comb and combed her hair little by little.

"You're going to help me pull my hair?" Jun Chaoyun was a little surprised.

"Hmm." Chu Li patiently chose a new hair ornament.

"I remember that you used to pull my hair too, I didn't know these things when I was a child, I just combed some normal styles randomly."

Jun Chaoyun remembered her previous life, when they were on the way to escape, she was seriously ill, and it was the teenager who tidied up her scattered hair.

At first, she was very uncomfortable, but after a long time, she went with him.

When she lived in Yanjing's small courtyard, perhaps because of the great defense of men and women, she didn't want him to touch her hair anymore.

In fact, when I think about it later, if a man doesn't really love a woman, he won't treat a woman so patiently and meticulously.

It's just that she blindly indulges in her life experience and relatives, has low self-esteem and has a future, and never believes that the teenager will like her.

"Actually, I've always wanted to ask, who taught you."

The hand that tied the hair in the young man's hand paused slightly, and after a moment he slowly talked about the past.

"It's the palace maid."

"Soon after I was born, my mother and I were imprisoned when I was a child and lived in Changning Palace with my mother, I would often watch Liu Er, the big palace maid next to my mother, comb my mother's hair in various buns, her craftsmanship was very good, and my mother believed in her very much."

"Mama Liu always said that her mother was born noble, no matter what the circumstances, she can't be humiliated, even if there is nothing in Changning Palace, she often can't eat enough, the eunuchs in the palace are very good at looking at her eyes, and it is common to deduct the meals in Changning Palace, but her mother will still clean it up, which is different from those women who have been beaten into the cold palace."

"Mother is not sad because of me, she has to cheer up."

"And then?"

"Mama Liu is gone, and when I found her, she was in the old eunuch's room."

"She originally just wanted to change some clothes for us for the winter, but at the behest of those people, she was tortured to death by the old eunuch guarding the door."

"You killed the old eunuch." Jun Chaoyun took her words.

"Yes, I killed him."

"Cut off his neck, and tear apart his bones inch by inch, and the flesh was scattered in the yard and fed to the wild cats." His expression was calm, as if he was saying something, something very ordinary.

"A few palace maids and eunuchs saw it, crazy crazy, dead dead."

"The whole palace is saying I'm a monster."

"Mother is too."

"But she didn't scold me, she told me that if I could survive in this palace, I had to be ruthless."

"My mother helped me throw the bodies into the well and destroy them."

"Maybe from that time, my mother already knew what kind of character I was raised."

"She did it on purpose."

"Empress Xiao, she may want to protect you." Jun Chaoyun softened his voice.

Otherwise, she would not have used her death to cover up the truth of Gu poison, at that moment, she wanted to protect her child.

"When I was young, I didn't have contact with other princes and princesses, what my mother told me, I would remember, teach me, and I would work hard to learn well."

"She taught me to kill, and I used it all on the old eunuch who killed Mama Liu."

"My mother told me that if I met these people in the future, I would kill them mercilessly in the future, because only in this way can I live."

"Later, I pulled my mother's hair, in fact, my mother was very sad, Mama Liu and he grew up together since childhood, like sisters, she forced herself to be ruthless."

"What about you?"

"Your Highness's heart is also very sad, but Your Highness doesn't know what to do, only revenge.
