Master, stay safe

Chapter 10 Miss You

Chapter 10 Miss You
After Jun Qingyan took a break at Yunlaixuan, it was inconvenient for me to stay longer.

If Brother Huang knows that I know the princess of Zhao Guo, he will be able to follow the clues to find out about Bai Wan.Of course, it doesn't matter if Bai Wan is found out, I'm worried that Brother Huang will see through the identity of Princess Chengyue's friend.

After I returned to Qingyu Palace, Routuan said: "Princess and Princess Chengyue really hit it off. After talking with Princess Chengyue, my whole spirit has improved."

I touched my face and said, "Is there?"

Routuan nodded sharply: "Yes, although the princess smiled on the surface a few days ago, she didn't smile in her eyes. If the princess doesn't believe it, you can ask Dongtao."

I glanced at Dongtao.

She also echoed: "Princess Chengyue is really charming."

Ever since I reused meatballs, Dongtao has seldom talked.In fact, I also know that I can't completely anger Dongtao about Qiutao's affairs, but I am still worried about Dongtao.After what happened to Zhou Yunyi, I began to doubt the things and principles taught to me by the emperor's brother, and even felt that the emperor's brother was too nervous about me, and he knew everything about me.

Even though Brother Huang is not by my side, I always feel that there is a pair of invisible eyes behind me, watching me all the time.

Routuan smiled and said: "In the future, the princess should have more contacts with Princess Chengyue."

I took a look in the mirror, and I really looked much better than before.

In fact, I know that this has nothing to do with Princess Chengyue. Whether I am happy or sad, I am always concerned about one person from the beginning to the end.I had been sad for a while because of him, and now he told me he was going to take it back, and he figured it out.

Immediately, I felt that the cloudy sky was clearing up, and my sky was full of sunshine.

I had thought a lot before, such as quickly finding the sixth son-in-law within a month, and then lovingly holding his arm to show off in front of Jun Qingyan, making him regret that he missed me.

But thinking about it now, thinking about so much and nothing, it is true to seize the present.

But Jun Qingyan has made me sad for several months, so I have to make him suffer.After the suffering is over, Zhao Guo's envoy and Bai Wan leave the capital, and I will confess to the emperor myself.

At that time, no matter how much she cries, makes trouble and hangs herself, she must wait until the emperor agrees to the marriage.

Jun Qingyan can coax people.

Although he was in Yunlaixuan, he would send sugar figurines here every now and then, all kinds of sugar figurines.I didn't expect Jun Qingyan to have so many ways to coax people, knowing that I was still annoyed by him, after delivering the sugar figurines, I personally made a lot of meat for them to deliver.

He really held my seven inches.

As soon as I squeezed it, my heart softened, and after thinking about it, I left him in the cold for half a month anyway, so I just let it go like this.

When I was asked to pack the things in Zhuxiu Pavilion, the palace servant brought the white cat I gave to Jun Qingyan before.Now I don't annoy him anymore, and it's time to return the property to its original owner.

I had someone prepare a sedan chair.

Routuan asked, "Where is the princess going?"

I said, "Yunlaixuan."

Seeing Dongtao's glance, I smiled again and said, "Go talk to Princess Chengyue."

When I arrived at Yunlaixuan, I didn't let the palace servants follow me, but I carried the white cat into the room myself, and told the servant who had notified me to keep silent.The white cat obediently let me hold it, its paws were soft and comfortable to the touch.

Walking through the corridor, I arrived at the Piange in a short while.

I was about to step in when I heard Bai Wan's voice.

"... For 80 years, I have been following you, watching you wait for her to grow up and get married again and again. I know you have never paid attention to me, but I am like a fool, silently following her I have been with you for 80 years, and I dare not even tell you who I am. After you ate the scorpion, I also ate the last scorpion in southern Xinjiang. After thinking about it for a long time, I can always tell you that I, Bai Wan, like it You. There are only two lindens in this world, you and I are the same, we can be the most suitable couple in the world."

This... is Bai Wan confessing?
My heart suddenly tightened.

Jun Qingyan's voice did not have any ups and downs, he said: "There are many couples who are right in the world, but it is impossible for me and you."

I can imagine Bai Wan's mood after the confession was rejected. I went around to the window and quietly opened a slit, but I didn't see Bai Wan's expression. Her back was facing me, and her back was a bit lonely.

At this time she said: "What about her? You think of her as Wan'er."

Jun Qingyan said: "At first I didn't believe in love at first sight until I met her. Over the years, she has been resurrected again and again. Although her appearance has changed, I can't help falling in love with her. It's not Wan'er, nor Rong Wu, just her. I've been with her for so many years, and the only thing I can confirm is that she is the only girl who makes me fall in love at first sight and is willing to wait."

My mood suddenly became a little complicated.

Judging from Jun Qingyan's words to Bai Wan, he regarded me as Wan'er after all, but not quite Wan'er.What he said just now was obviously expressing his heart to me, what he likes is me, not because I am Wan'er.

I scratched my head, like a knot in my head.

Oh, it's annoying.

I did not enter the side pavilion, but quietly left Yunlaixuan.But I kept the white cat and asked the palace servants to send the white cat to Jun Qingyan.Seeing me coming out of Yunlaixuan, Routuan said in surprise: "Princess finished talking with Princess Chengyue so soon?"

I gave a vague "hmm", looked at the sky, and asked, "What time is it now?"

Routuan said: "Back to the princess, the hour has just passed."

Then the emperor's brother is also going down, and he is probably in the imperial study at this time.I said, "Go to the royal study."

If you're in a bad mood, it's best to go out for a walk.

When Brother Huang heard that I was in a bad mood and wanted to leave the palace for a walk, he readily gave me the order to leave the palace.I brought Routuan and some guards out of the palace, Routuan knows some fists and kicks, when I competed with Dongtao before, the two were evenly matched.

Routuan obeys me, so I don't worry about taking her out.

I went to Xinghua Building to have a big meal, and once I ate the meat, the worries in my heart disappeared a lot.Meat and wine are really a panacea for me, and it will take effect immediately after eating.

After leaving Xinghua Building, I saw that it was still early, so I thought about it and went to Fuhua Temple to talk to Master Zhengdao.

Master Zhengdao is really a liar.

At the beginning, I said that I was too yin, so the five sons-in-law died strangely and suddenly.Now that the truth came out, it was clear that Zhou Yunyi was too murderous and had nothing to do with Bengong's hair.

Thinking of what Jun Qingyan said before, he has known Master Zhengdao for many years, and guessed that it was a lie that Jun Qingyan pushed Master Zhengdao to say.Otherwise, without Master Zhengdao saying this, it would be absolutely impossible for me to bring Jun Qingyan into the palace and recognize him as my master.

Fuhua Temple was built on the mountainside, but the official road was paved in the early years, and the ground was considered flat, and the carriage could go all the way to the temple gate.On weekdays, Fuhua Temple was full of incense, and there was an endless stream of people going to offer incense, but today the carriage traveled all the way, but half of them were not seen.

I took a look and found that the weather today is not bad, although it is a bit cold, but it is not that there are not even half of people going to burn incense.

I wondered hard.

After the carriage stopped, we discovered the reason.

The last time I came to Fuhua Temple was before I went to Cangcheng, nearly half a year from today.But now the huge Fuhua Temple is long gone, replaced by a Taoist temple.

I asked Routuan to call a little Taoist who was sweeping the floor in front of the door.

I asked, "Where is Fuhua Temple?"

The little Taoist looked at me and didn't speak.Routuan stuffed him with a dime, and he said slowly, "What Fuhua Temple, our place is Huixian Temple."

It really makes no sense.

The little Taoist priests are so arrogant that the sweeping monks at the gate of Fuhua Temple did not dare to accept my money.

I winked at the guard next to me.

The guard immediately caught the little Taoist priest.The little Taoist's complexion changed: "Grandma, please forgive me."

I really want to toast and don't eat fine wine, I'm full, I said coldly: "This is the Fuhua Temple bestowed by the Holy One, when will it be your turn to Laoshizi Immortal Temple?"

The little Taoist shook his head in fear, and said, "Auntie, our Immortal Temple is also bestowed by the Holy One! This time the plaque of the Immortal Temple is also given by the Holy One himself."

I said, "Impossible. We in Da'an have believed in Buddhism for many years. This place is the most important place in the country of Da'an. When will it be your turn for Taoist doves to occupy the magpie's nest?"

The little Taoist said: "What I said, my aunt, is true. I don't know how many temples have been demolished in Da'an in the past six months, and all of them have been converted into Taoist temples."

I couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and asked, "Where did the people from Fuhua Temple go?"

The little Taoist pointed out, "It's just... on the opposite mountain."

I heard the words and ordered people to go.

As the little Taoist said, all the people in Fuhua Temple are here.I also met the Master of the Right Way.I haven't seen him for half a year, Master Zhengdao has had a lot of vicissitudes, maybe it's because of the loss of livelihood.

Seeing how many people crowded into such a dilapidated mansion, I couldn't help but feel emotional.

I said: "Why did Master anger Brother Huang?"

Master Zhengdao sighed: "Amitabha, Your Majesty's heart demon has been born, and it can't be extinguished, it can't be extinguished."

At this point, I had no intention of incriminating my teacher, looking at Master Zhengdao like this, I asked Routuan to distribute all the money I had with me to everyone.I said to Master Zhengdao: "Master, please rest assured, I will definitely seek justice from Brother Huang for you."

I can already guess about seven or eight points of the inner demon that Master Zhengdao said.

I was negligent.

Since Brother Huang started copying the Tao Te Ching more than a year ago, I should have figured out what Brother Huang was thinking.I really don't understand, how could the well-behaved brother of the emperor come up with the delusion of immortality like the foolish emperors of the past?
I hurried back to the palace and broke into the imperial study directly.

Brother Huang asked with a smile: "Why did you come back so early? After walking outside, do you feel better?"

Brother Huang's breezy appearance made me feel a lot calmer.I slowed down and said, "Ah Wu has something I don't understand."

"Oh?" Brother Huang raised his eyebrows, "Going for a walk, you still have a question, so tell me."

I said: "Qin Huang sent people to Penglai Fairyland to seek medicine, hoping to live forever, but in the end they were no match for God's will. Ah Wu doesn't know why Qin Huang wants to live forever?"

Brother Huang looked at me: "How can you not live forever?"

I said: "Hasn't the Qin Emperor ruled the six kingdoms long ago?"

Brother Huang shook his head: "Life is only a hundred years, and half of the country will last for decades. How long can the emperor last? Naturally, the longer the life, the better."

I said: "But there are still descendants, and the incense is passed on from generation to generation. Isn't the country of the descendants the country of the emperor?"

"The children and grandchildren belong to the descendants, and the emperor belongs to the emperor. These are two different things." Brother Huang said indifferently. He glanced at me and said, "Who is gossiping in your ears? Is it the right way?"

I gritted my teeth and said, "Brother Emperor, our Da'an ancestors have worshiped Buddhism for generations, and now we have changed to Taoism. I am afraid that the late emperor would feel uneasy when he was underground..."

Brother Huang said: "The first emperor was the first emperor, I am the first emperor, and now I am the son of heaven. I will worship whatever I want. You don't need to say more, just go out."

"But……"

Brother Huang interrupted me: "No but." He looked at me with a straight face, and said: "What I do, I have my own measure."

I opened my mouth just as I was about to say something, but Brother Huang had already picked up the pen and stopped looking at me. He said lightly: "If you say more, you won't even think about leaving the palace."

"Brother Emperor!"

Gao Qiushou who has been waiting by the side advised me in a low voice: "Your Highness, you can go back, don't make His Majesty angry."

I was almost kicked out.

I have never tried this kind of treatment since I was a child, and I was so angry that my forehead acupoint hurt.Routuan said cautiously: "Princess, your face is pale, do you want to send an imperial doctor to take a look?"

I said: "Don't pass it on!"

Routuan asked: "The princess wants to go back to Qingyu Palace?"

I said: "No return."

"Then go to Yunlaixuan?"

When I think of what Jun Qingyan said, I feel uncomfortable.I said, "I won't go." Before I finished speaking, I heard a cat meowing, I looked sideways, and I don't know when Jun Qingyan appeared ten steps away from me, wearing that ordinary face.

He holds in his arms the white cat I sent someone to.

He touched the white cat's head and said, "Where isn't the princess going?"

Jun Qingyan was also bold, dared to show up at the door of the imperial study, if the emperor found out, he would definitely be kicked out of the palace.I gave Routuan a wink, and Routuan dispersed the surrounding palace people.

I was so angry in my heart that I didn't want to speak.But in the bottom of my heart, I cared about him, fearing that he would be seen through, my feet had already started to walk towards a remote place.

Routuan winked very much, but she didn't follow.

Jun Qingyan hugged the cat and followed.

When no one was around, he hooked my finger and held it gently.He said, "Still thinking about being a teacher?"

I said: "I heard everything you said to Bai Wan."

He came up to me, stared at me, and said, "Although the motive was not pure at the beginning, the process of love is not important. The important thing is that you have me in your heart, and I also have you in my heart."

I said: "Master still regards me as Wan'er, right?" Jun Qingyan treats Wan'er with such deep affection, it is impossible to forget Wan'er within a few months.

Jun Qingyan sighed, and said, "You are you, and Wan'er is Wan'er, so you don't need to worry about this issue."

I couldn't help being entangled, Wan'er remained in my heart like a thorn.

I bit my lip.

Jun Qingyan asked: "Do you want to eat sugar man?"

I curled my lips and said, "Master always uses this method to coax people?"

Jun Qingyan said: "Of course not, if this method fails, there are other methods as a teacher, which will definitely make you smile again."

I raised my eyebrows and said, "Oh? What else can I do?"

Jun Qingyan took my hand: "Follow me as a teacher."

I said, "Where are you going?"

"You'll know when you go."

Holding the white cat in one hand, and pulling me with the other, he turned around the jungle path, avoided a few strange rocks, and walked straight forward.I was curious in my heart, I grew up in the palace since I was a child, there is almost nothing in the huge palace that I haven't been to, where does Jun Qingyan want to take me?
After touching half a stick of incense, Jun Qingyan stopped.

I looked left and right, and it was Youguang Lake.

I couldn't help being stunned. Few people come here from Youguang Lake, because it is close to the Leng Palace, and several masters have counted it as ominous many years ago. In fact, there are really some evil gates here, and people who want to die in the palace like to go there. Youguang Lake jumped, and there were several times when the corpses were soaked until they could not recognize the human form. Gradually, almost no one came here, and Youguang Lake became a dead lake. No matter what time it was, it was quiet. Except for the occasional bleak little song sung by a silly, cold palace woman.

It was already late at this time, and when I walked here, the wind blew and it was chilly, and I couldn't help but feel a little chill in my heart.

I swallowed my saliva: "Why...how did you come here?"

Jun Qingyan said, "I'll show you something."

After all, he boarded the boat and pulled me along.I swallowed my saliva again, and said, "Master certainly doesn't know that there are many... grievances in Youguang Lake..."

Jun Qingyan said: "What are you afraid of if you are a teacher? Even if there is a wronged soul, how can you get me?"

That's what Master said.

However, Master doesn’t know how many years the innocent soul has lived, and it will not be destroyed for ten thousand years. When it comes to age, the innocent soul still has to kowtow to Master and call him Lord.I immediately feel at ease, every time I stay by Jun Qingyan's side, I feel extra at ease in my heart, as if the sky is falling and he is there to support me.

It is undeniable that on such a night, I was still a little bit tangled just now, but I don't remember it now.

Before he even opened his mouth to coax me, my heart felt a little flustered, probably because I liked him first, and I couldn't help myself.

Jun Qingyan brought the boat to the center of the lake.

I deliberately joked: "Nowadays, the night is dark and windy, lonely men and widows, but Master wants to have a little fun in the middle of the lake?"

I was joking, but Jun Qingyan looked at me seriously.

He said, "You... want?"

Looking at his expression, it seems that as long as I nod my head, we will be on fire the next moment.But I just said that even if I had the courage, I would not dare to burn it here.

I coughed and said, "What did Master bring me to see?"

"look at this."

Not long after the words were finished, several white lights shot out from Jun Qingyan's body, floating slowly into the air, moving bit by bit as if spiritually, with a faint silver light shining on his body, after a long while, A white hibiscus flower appeared in the sky.

Those Gu insects actually drew a hibiscus flower in the air!

Jun Qingyan said: "The first time I saw you was under the hibiscus tree. You were bitten by a bastard, and your cheeks turned red with anger. You are more beautiful than a hibiscus flower."

My heart is rippling.

He said he coaxed me until I laughed, and it really was extraordinary when he made a move.

He stared at me with tender eyes like water.

I seem to smell the fragrance of hibiscus flowers, and I am also drunk.I don't remember who started it first, but I only remember that the hibiscus flowers bloomed in the sky that night, and I tasted the sweetness of melons and fruits from his lips.

The fragrance of flowers makes people intoxicated, and the heart is even more intoxicated.

When the boat arrived at the shore, I hadn't recovered from the kiss just now, I only knew that my cheeks were scorching hot, maybe an egg would be cooked.Jun Qingyan took my hand and got off the boat, the feeling of my fingers clasped together made my feet feel light.

All Wan'er and beauties were thrown into the clouds.

Oh, the night is really wonderful tonight.

But at this moment, I heard a faint sigh.I was stunned, and looked around, but the surroundings were pitch black, and there was no one in sight.

I said, "Master, did you hear anything?"

"No."

Could it be my illusion?I touched my nose, and when I put down my hand, the sigh came again, like a gust of wind swept directly into my heart.I heard it clearly this time, so I couldn't help sticking to Jun Qingyan's arm, and said, "Master, there are... there are... ghosts."

Jun Qingyan said, "Where is it?"

I said, "No... I don't know."

At this moment, someone began to sing a song miserably, could not tell what was being sung, only the tone was quite sad.I followed the sound, and soon saw a bright red figure on the treetop ten steps away from the book.

Her hair was disheveled, and her lips were smeared red with blood. Looking at it this way, she was really scary.

But I have heard that the women in the cold palace are crazy, so I recovered after being startled.I said: "So it's a concubine who fell out of favor, Master, let's go quickly."

I was about to pull Jun Qingyan away, but the woman suddenly jumped from the treetops and danced in front of me.

"Empress, the slave is Nanny Gui, do you still remember the slave?"

I was taken aback.

The name Gui Momo is somewhat familiar, isn't it the one who served the queen mother before?I still remember that when my mother was alive, she told me that when she married the first emperor, Nanny Gui was already her dowry maid, until shortly after I was born, I fell ill for some reason and started to become silly.When the queen mother was alive, there were still people serving Nanny Gui, but as soon as the new emperor came to the throne, the sky in the palace changed, and Nanny Gui disappeared, so I didn't expect to be here.

Jun Qingyan said: "Ah Wu, let's go."

I said: "OK."

Unexpectedly, Nanny Gui's complexion changed drastically. She looked at me directly, her red lips trembling: "Grand...princess..."

I opened my eyes wide, and even recognized me?
"Mummy Gui, you..."

Before I could finish my words, Nanny Gui knelt down with a thud, and kowtowed violently: "It's the servant who is sorry for the princess. She didn't take good care of the princess and let the princess die. The princess should kill the servant, kill the servant..."

I said, "Nurse Gui, what nonsense are you talking about?"

I'm standing here in good order, what death is, is simply nonsense.

Jun Qingyan held me back and said, "Why did the princess die unexpectedly?"

I said in a low voice: "Mother Gui is a little crazy, master don't worry about it."

Jun Qingyan said: "Maybe there is something hidden, it doesn't hurt to listen to it." He asked again, and at this time Nanny Gui said: "Empress Empress, it's a servant who is sorry for you. The princess died just one day after she was born. ..."

I said to Jun Qingyan: "She is talking nonsense, my mother only gave birth to one daughter, and that is me. Am I not living well now?"

Nanny Gui seemed to understand what I said.

She suddenly raised her head and looked at me fixedly: "The raccoon...the raccoon cat...the prince..."

Jun Qingyan asked: "Mama, do you want to change the civet cat for the prince?"

Nanny Gui nodded abruptly, and she said again: "The princess has a birthmark in the shape of a plum blossom on her right arm."

I touched my right arm subconsciously, and shook my head at Jun Qingyan: "No."

At this moment, Nanny Gui sighed again, and said, "Run away, run away quickly, the prince is going to kill the princess, if you run far away, the prince will not be caught."

I frown.

How could the emperor kill me?
I wanted to ask some more questions, but Nanny Gui climbed up the tree again and began to sing, no matter what I asked, she would not answer.My heart is going up and down, and I don't know if what Nanny Gui said is true or not, if it is true, am I not the real Princess Mingyu?

Jun Qingyan looked preoccupied.

He said: "Can you still find out the woman who delivered the baby at that time? If you want to know whether what Nanny Gui said is true or not, just ask."

I pursed my lips and said, "I should be able to find it."

It's not difficult to find a Wenpo, and the one who delivered the queen's baby is naturally not an ordinary Wenpo, and the Wenpo who gave birth to the queen back then was registered with Concubine Qin.I asked Concubine Qin, and Concubine Qin readily gave me the brochure.

I took a look, and soon found out where Jin Wenpo lived.

Although Jin Wenpo is over sixty years old, she looks good in spirit and in good health.I chatted with Jin Wenpo, inadvertently mentioned the matter of delivering the queen, and Jin Wenpo said proudly: "I delivered the two children of the empress empress. Where's the mole?"

I do know this.

I nodded and asked, "Does the princess have any moles?"

Jin Wenpo smiled and said: "No way, the princess is delicate and delicate, her body is white and tender, and it would be ugly to have moles, but there is a plum blossom-shaped birthmark on her right arm, as thick as a thumb, pink, I don't know how many there are. It's pretty."

As soon as I heard it, my body froze immediately.

I... As expected, I am not a real princess, what Nanny Gui said is true.

Then...then...

I remembered the sentence Nanny Gui said——

"Run away, run away quickly, the prince is going to kill the princess, if you run far away, the prince will not be able to catch you."

The princess has already died, which means that I am the one the emperor wants to kill?For... why?
I gritted my teeth and said, "No, I have to ask Nanny Gui for clarification."

On the way back to the palace, I was very silent.My heart is heavy and my mind is in a mess.Undoubtedly, this sudden news was shocking and thunderous. It struck me with a bang, and I was at a loss for what to do.

Jun Qingyan looked at me and gently hugged me in his arms.

I feel a little better.

After dark, Jun Qingyan and I went to Youguang Lake quietly, and it was much easier for me to sneak out with the meat ball as cover.Nanny Gui was still sitting on the top of the tree, still wearing bright red lipstick, and singing a song miserably.

No matter what we asked, Nanny Gui would not answer.

I was suddenly a little depressed.

Jun Qingyan patted my hand and asked patiently, "Why did the prince kill the princess?"

Nanny Gui acted as if she had never heard of it.

I said: "Are you talking nonsense? You lied to me. How could the prince kill the princess?"

Nanny Gui still sang the song on her own.

I sighed, and said to Jun Qingyan: "Master, Nanny Gui is crazy, and some words cannot be taken seriously. Let's go." I just turned around, but Nanny Gui murmured a few words.I didn't hear clearly, and turned around hastily.

"Sister Gui, say it again."

This time I heard clearly, it was five words.

"The Royal Study Room, the office."

It's almost winter now, but my autumn party hasn't started yet.Ever since I was born, the annual autumn banquet is a must, even if I am sick, I still have to hold it.

I went to the imperial study to ask the imperial brother for an order.

After being kicked out of the imperial study by the emperor's brother that day, although I was a little annoyed, I thought about it. After all, the emperor's brother is the emperor, and he can only decide what he believes.Although I am his younger sister, I can't interfere. I can only secretly help a group of people in Fuhua Temple with money.

I smiled and said: "Brother Emperor, Ah Wu wants to hold a larger autumn banquet this year, not only to invite the ladies and sons of various families, but also the ministers of the court. However, Ah Wu is worried that the courtiers will not be able to be suppressed, so this year At the autumn banquet, I want Brother Qing to come forward. I wonder if Brother Qing can give Ah Wu a face and go to Mingyu Villa to give Ah Wu a face?"

Brother Huang said: "I actually made my mind up on me."

I said: "It just so happens that Princess Chengyue of Zhao Kingdom is also here this year, and they happen to enjoy the autumn chrysanthemum together. Brother Huang, do you think it's okay?"

Brother Huang said: "I heard that you have gotten a little closer to the friends around Princess Chengyue recently?"

I was shocked in my heart, and said calmly: "Who is talking to the emperor? It is obvious that A Wu is close to Princess Chengyue, and she lied about the rumors. She should be punished, and she should be dragged out to beat the board. The emperor... ..."

I elongated my tone and said, "Should I accept Ah Wu?"

Brother Huang smiled and said, "When will the autumn banquet be held?"

I counted the days and said, "Seven days later."

Brother Huang said: "It just happens to be a holiday, so I promise you, so as not to keep buzzing in my ears."

Hearing Brother Huang's tone, my eyes couldn't help turning red.What Nanny Gui said must be false, Brother Huang loves me so much, how could he want to kill me?In the past 20 years, no matter what I want, Brother Huang will get it even if I want to go to the sky and pick the moon. Whenever I cry, Brother Huang will get anxious.

How could the emperor who loves and spoils me like this want to kill me?
Seven days later, the autumn air is crisp and the people in the Ministry of Rites are well prepared for me.The size of the banquet this year is much larger than in previous years. Since the emperor's brother is also here, and there are princesses from other countries, the Ministry of Etiquette has spent a lot of thought.

The autumn banquet only started when it was about to fall into the night. With Brother Huang present, I naturally accompanied him to Mingyu Villa.

When the sun was about to set on the western mountain, my elder brother and I took the same car and drove slowly towards Mingyu Villa.Mingyu Villa is located on the outskirts of the capital, about half an hour's drive away.

Brother Huang turned the jade finger, looked at me, and suddenly said, "Where's your master?"

I coughed, and said, "I already parted from Ah Wu when we were in Cangcheng."

Brother Huang said: "It should have been divided long ago."

I was startled.

Brother Huang said indifferently: "If it wasn't for your sake, how could I allow an unknown commoner to live in the palace for so long? Although Jun Qingyan is indeed a talented person, his heart is not here. Stay in the palace. After a long time, it will be a disaster sooner or later."

I can't help but say good things for Jun Qingyan.

"But...but it's also thanks to him that the real culprit who killed the five sons-in-law was found."

Hearing my words, Brother Huang frowned slightly.He asked: "Ah Wu, do you want to find a sixth son-in-law?"

I said: "Since it's not Awu Kefu, the emperor will pay attention to Awu in the court in a few days. But Awu still likes to find it by herself, like the third son-in-law. It doesn't matter if you come from a poor family, as long as you don't have to be famous. As long as Ah Wu likes it."

Brother Huang said: "Is that so? So, Ah Wu has someone in mind?"

I said: "...No, no."

Brother Huang is prejudiced against Jun Qingyan, how dare I say Jun Qingyan's name.Let's talk about it some time later.Brother Huang said slowly: "You don't have to rush into the matter of the son-in-law. Although you are old now, it doesn't matter. If you want to marry the golden branch and jade leaf of our Da'an, you will definitely be able to marry. I want to keep you for a few more years."

The emperor's eyes were deep: "What do you think? If you are unhappy, you can tell me directly."

I smiled and said, "Brother Huang, Ah Wu is no longer the little girl she was when she was 56 years old. I used to look at the noble girls Feng Guanxia from various families, and I was envious, so I kept arguing for Brother Huang to give me a marriage. But in the past five or six years, Ah Wu also figured it out, there is really no rush to get married."

Brother Huang asked: "Do you really think so in your heart?"

I smiled and said: "Really, how dare Ah Wu lie to the emperor?"

Brother Huang smiled: "That's good."

When they arrived at Mingyu Villa, everyone had already arrived.Bai Wan is an honored guest, sitting at the bottom, and I sit at the top with the emperor brother.As soon as I sat down, she glanced at me, and her eyes were calm.

After Jun Qingyan rejected her face to face that day, I rarely saw Bai Wan.

Seeing Bai Wan now, her complexion is not very good-looking, a little haggard.

But I can understand that this is the case for people who have been hurt emotionally, but it will recover after a long time.How can there be so much vigorous love in this world, if you get hurt, just raise it and it will be fine.

Brother Huang had sharp eyes and asked, "Princess Chengyue, where is your friend?"

Bai Wan said: "Chengyue's friend has a cold so it's inconvenient to attend."

I was afraid that Brother Huang would continue to ask, so I hurriedly interrupted and said, "I would like to offer a toast to all of you." I raised my glass and drank it down.

Jun Qingyan naturally didn't suffer from the cold, so I dragged my brother to Mingyu Villa in order to let Jun Qingyan go to the imperial study to find out the mechanism and see if he could get any clues.

Jun Qingyan said that Brother Huang had ulterior motives for me, but I didn't want to believe it, but what Nanny Gui said jumped into my mind from time to time, and only by finding out the truth would I be completely at ease.

At this time, Bai Wan said: "After getting along these days, Chengyue and the princess are considered to be destined, and Chengyue respects Princess Mingyu."

She winked at me as she put down her glass.

I could tell she had something to say to me in private.I thought about it in my heart, and after a while, Bai Wan quietly left the table. Seeing this, I made a random word and followed behind Bai Wan.

When there were fewer and fewer guards around, I said to Bai Wan: "Go east, there are no palace guards over there."

Bai Wan and I walked to a water pavilion.

I said, "You... have something you want to tell me?"

Bai Wan said: "There is indeed something to say."

I pondered for a while and said, "Is it about my master?"

Bai Wan glanced at me, sighed quietly, and said: "Actually, I just took a gamble at the beginning, but I didn't expect this gamble to bet my whole life. I expressed my heart to him before, and he personally refused, and I was like a blow to the head. When I woke up, I always felt that I had a dream, but unfortunately when I woke up, I found that it was not a dream. He is also a fool, and has been chasing her. "

She looked straight at me and said, "Actually, I have always hated Wan'er. Why did she make Jun Qingyan love her for so many years? Now that she is gone, Wan'er is gone. Jun Qingyan seems to like her too." You, I didn't feel so uncomfortable when I accepted it. I decided to give up on him, woke up from the dream, if I continue to deceive myself and others, I will live up to my good life of Bai Wan. "

I smiled wryly, "He still regards me as Wan'er."

Bai Wan said: "He is confused, how could you be Wan'er. He told me before that the person who can make him fall in love at first sight must be Wan'er, so he took you as Wan'er. Don't tell him, let him Continue to misunderstand. Everyone is in your hands anyway, even if Wan'er reappears in the future, she may not win you."

I asked: "When you first saw me, you thought I was Wan'er?"

Bai Wan said: "You talk about this matter, and now I might as well tell you that there is a relationship between the scorpion and the jade man in southern Xinjiang. The scorpion can find the jade man, and Jun Qingyan found the jade man by relying on the scorpion. , Later he ate the jade man, and naturally he could feel the jade man's breath. As long as he touched the jade man, the jade man's breath would react. But you have the jade man's breath, although I don't know why, but I touch it When he touched you, Zhelin didn't react at all. Zhelin can't make mistakes, so you must not be a jade person. But you can quietly find a jade person before Jun Qingyan, so that you can live forever, so you to be with him forever.”

I asked, "Then why did the master not allow the wish of immortality when she was at Jade Man 25? Instead, she made Wan'er resurrect again and again?"

Bai Wan said: "Everything is born and restrained, how can the jade man's wish be applied to himself? So we can only find another way to make the jade man disappear and make the jade man reappear, which is equivalent to Jun Qingyan exchanging one wish for another wish."

I understand.

Bai Wan said again: "I was originally the daughter of Prime Minister Bai of the State of Zhao, and I ate the bark for Jun Qingyan before, and now I can't spit it out, so I can only live like this. Now that I wake up from the dream, it's time for me to leave. I heard people in the palace say that you have never left Da'an except for the time you went to Cangcheng?"

I nodded.

She said: "It's a pity, the world outside is much bigger than the imperial city, it's a pity that you don't go out and see for yourself."

I said: "Brother Huang is very strict with me."

Bai Wan pulled her lips and smiled, it was not a good smile, it looked quite stiff.I said: "It seems to be the first time I see you smiling." Bai Wan said: "You don't know, there are many restrictions after eating the linden, and now the linden is alive in my body, I have to rely on it for everything For example, it doesn’t eat meat. Once I eat it, I must coax it, play the piano and play the flute. Jun Qingyan’s barren cat likes white cats, so he has to hug the white cat, otherwise it will be unhappy , it will only be us who will suffer. And you also know that Gu worms have no expressions. After I ate the baroque, it didn't allow me to laugh." She sighed: "Before I ate the baroque, I was a lively person. Girl, after eating the bacon, people say that I am cold, lonely and noble, and I can't explain it even if I want to."

She paused, and said again: "I won't talk about this anymore, I will leave Da'an in a few days, if you want to visit Zhao country, you can come with me."

I smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness."

After these words, there is no quarrel between me and Bai Wan.Bai Wan is really a good girl, if her sweetheart is Jun Qingyan, I would like to be her matchmaker.I went back hand in hand with Bai Wan, and when we were approaching the garden where the autumn banquet was held, meat balls appeared in front of me.

Seeing Routuan's flustered appearance, I asked Bai Wan to go ahead.

The meat ball whispered in my ear: "Princess, something is wrong. Mr. Jun said that he found the mechanism, but the key to unlocking the mechanism lies in the princess."

I understood, and said: "Go and prepare the horse first."

The meatball responded.

I collected my expression and took my seat again.Brother Huang said: "Why have you been away for so long?" I smiled and said: "The autumn chrysanthemums are in full bloom along the way, and I didn't pay attention to it for a long time." I sneezed.

Brother Huang said: "But it's cold? Let's call an imperial doctor to come over and have a look."

I said: "Perhaps it's because of the approaching winter, I've caught a bit of cold, I guess it will be better after going back to the palace to rest for one night."

I rub my forehead.

Brother Huang said: "Alright, you can go back to the palace first, and I will go to Qingyu Palace to see you after the banquet."

I nodded and left the table from one side.

Dongtao followed me, and I said to her: "You don't have to follow, brother Huang is still at the banquet, you have been with me for so many years, and you are familiar with the autumn banquet in this Palace, if something goes wrong, you can It's enough to help me by one or two, with Routuan following me."

After Dongtao left, I gave some instructions to the guards around me, and when I was alone, I hurried to the back door of Mingyu Villa. With the green worm Gu, it is not a big problem to deal with the guards guarding the gate. .

I went out the back door, and Routuan was already sitting on the horse.

She called out: "Princess."

I took her hand and she pulled me onto the horse's back.The autumn banquet has come to an end, and the carriage ride is too slow. I am afraid that the emperor will return to the palace as soon as I arrive at the imperial study, so I can only choose to ride a horse.

However, I am in poor health, and I often ride in a carriage, but I have never ridden a horse.

I said: "Quick."

The back of the horse hurt my buttocks, the wind whistled in my ears, and my face hurt a little from shaving.Since the emperor and princess are all in the suburbs today, the gates of the city are still wide open, which is convenient for me.

When we were approaching the imperial city, we got off our horses and walked towards the gate of the palace. With a wave of the token, the guards who guarded the gate quickly opened the gate.Routuan was also careful, and had already asked the palace servants to prepare a sedan chair inside the palace gate.

I ordered: "Go to the imperial garden."

The imperial garden is the closest to the imperial study, I can't let others know that I will go to the imperial study as soon as I return to the palace, otherwise the emperor will definitely suspect me when he returns.Routuan cooperated and said: "Princess, what should I do if I can't find the hairpin?"

I said: "Look for it, it should have fallen in the Imperial Garden."

After getting off the sedan chair, I screened away the surrounding palace people and slipped into the imperial study without anyone noticing.

I saw the little servant who often followed Gao Qiushou with his mouth open, holding a broom in his hand, standing in a rather strange posture.Jun Qingyan strode forward, and I said, "Has he seen Master? Otherwise, why is his expression so weird?"

Jun Qingyan said indifferently: "When the teacher came in, he happened to be talking to himself."

I stretched out my hand and waved it in front of his eyes, but Xiao Nei didn't move, it seems that Jun Qingyan's Gu worm was more effective, and my green worm Gu lost its effect after a while.I got back to business and said, "Where is the organ?"

Jun Qingyan said, "Come with me."

After that, he naturally took my hand and walked around the court.There was a large vase near the imperial case, about one person tall, Jun Qingyan turned it, and there was a rumbling sound, but after a while, a huge stone door appeared in front of my eyes.

I often come to the Imperial Study Room, but I never thought that Brother Huang's place has something special here.

I said, "It's just this stone door that can't be opened?"

I carefully observed the stone gate in front of me. It was as tall as two people. The stone surface was flat and smooth. There was only a sunken place in the center. I stretched out my hand and pressed it, but there was no movement.

Jun Qingyan said: "I need your blood."

When I heard it, I couldn't help but startled.

"Blood... blood?"

Jun Qingyan nodded: "Just a few drops is enough." I never doubted Jun Qingyan's words, I bit my finger without thinking, and after dripping a few drops of blood, the stone door really opened.

I was very surprised, and said: "Why can my blood be opened?"

Jun Qingyan said: "I'll explain to you later, go ahead and see what's there."

There is a dark passage behind the stone gate, Jun Qingyan took out the night pearl from the skirt of his clothes, and led me into the passage.The passage is not long, only about ten steps.I stopped, and there was a quiet room in front of me, with only one couch and one table in it, it looked like a place where Brother Huang would come in his spare time.

I said, "There's nothing here."

As I said that, my gaze paused, and there were several blue books on the desk.Jun Qingyan didn't notice, he walked to the wall and knocked, as if he was looking for a new mechanism.I picked up one of the books, thinking that Brother Huang must be ashamed to read the book in such a secret place. After I read it, I can find a chance to make fun of Brother Huang.

Unexpectedly, I flipped through it at random, but it was handwritten, not copperplate printed, and from the ink, it seemed to be written a long time ago.

My breath stopped.

What is written on it is - Jade Raising Handbook.

"What are you looking at?" Jun Qingyan came over, I opened my mouth, his expression suddenly changed, and said: "It's not good, someone is coming outside." I could only swallow my words, and let Jun Qingyan pull me go out.

My mind is full of those few words - Jade Raising Manual.

Brother Huang knows the legend of the jade man, and he must also know the existence of the jade man.Brother Huang wants to live forever, Taoism is unreliable, but what if there is a beautiful woman?Waiting for the jade person to be 25, grind the bones into powder, and write down the wish of immortality.

My heart was pounding.

Jun Qingyan wants to find Wan'er, Bai Wan wants to find Wan'er, brother Huang also wants to find Wan'er, Wan'er is like Tang monk meat, everyone wants it.

At this time, there was a rumor from the palace people that the holy car had arrived.

I hurriedly got up to greet him, the emperor had already changed into the dark green robe he wore in Mingyu Villa, and put on the black uniform he usually wears in the palace, with the cuffs rolled up three-quarters, I could smell the smell after bathing.

I said: "Ah Wu pays respects to Brother Huang."

Brother Huang stared at me for a while before saying: "Did you call the imperial doctor to take a look?"

I said: "It's just a bit of wind and cold, it's not serious, Ah Wu knows it well, rest overnight and she'll be fine tomorrow morning."

Brother Huang said: "Sit down."

He looked at the palace servants behind me and said, "Everyone back down."

My heart skipped a beat, Brother Huang's expression tonight is not quite right.Brother Huang has been my elder brother for more than twenty years. Although I can't fully understand his thoughts, I can still clearly see the displeasure in his eyes at this moment.

I said: "Ah Wu left early tonight, it's Ah Wu's fault..."

Brother Huang tapped on the table with one finger, and said: "I don't know that you are eager to return to the palace. You who have never ridden a horse in 23 years dare to run all the way back to the imperial city..."

I said: "Ah Wu thinks that riding a horse can make her return faster..."

Brother Huang said, "Really?"

I'm most afraid of Brother Huang's expression, which is half a smile but not a smile, even scarier than Bao Gong's face when the Ministry of Criminal Justice tried the case.I swallowed my saliva and said, "Yes."

Brother Huang hooked his fingers and said, "Ah Wu, come here."

I moved around.

"Come again."

I moved again, the grand master's chair where I was sitting and the emperor's brother was only a small table away, now I moved and moved, my face was almost close to the emperor's brother.Brother Huang's hand pinched my chin suddenly, slightly stronger.

I froze for a while.

Brother Huang said: "Ah Wu, what did you see in my secret room?"

I was shocked, brother Huang actually found out...I trembled, and said: "What are you talking about, Brother Huang? Ah Wu can't understand." The strength of my jaw became stronger and stronger, and I frowned in pain: "Huang... Brother Huang, it hurts."

Brother Huang still didn't let go of his hand.

He said: "The book on the case is passive, and there is a hair on it..."

There was a strand of shiny hair between his fingers.

"The only person who can open that stone door is you, besides me. When Ah Wu grew up, she became misbehaving. She used to obey me and never lied to me."

"Emperor...Emperor Brother..."

"Say!"

My jaw looks like it's about to be crushed. I've rarely seen the emperor's brother angry. Now I really feel the anger of the emperor.I said: "Ah... Ah Wu only saw the Jade Raising Manual, and didn't see anything else..."

Brother Huang let go of my chin, and asked again: "Who else went in with you?"

I said: "There is only Ah Wu."

Before the words finished, there was a slap, Brother Huang... actually slapped me.My eyes widened immediately, since I was a child, Brother Huang has never hit me.But now the emperor brother has changed, in pursuit of immortality, for the beauty, he hit me.

He said: "With your ability, it is impossible for you to avoid many eyes and ears without accomplices. Now you still want to lie to me?"

The teardrops couldn't help falling down.

I said: "Brother Huang has never hit Ah Wu."

He seemed to have thought of something, and his frown relaxed again.But the voice was still cold, he said: "I will give you three days, if you don't let go, when I find out, your accomplices will be killed without mercy."

After finishing speaking, the emperor got up, and when he walked to the door, he ordered: "The princess must close the door and think about her mistakes for the next three days, and she is not allowed to leave the Qingyu Palace, and take a good look at the princess."

I heard Dong Tao respond.

My heart tightened.

Brother Huang is going to put me under house arrest...

I really never thought that such a day would happen to me, as long as I can remember, Brother Huang treated me in a way that he was afraid to melt in his mouth, until recently Brother Huang became a believer, and his temper changed a lot.

Thinking of the Jade Raising Manual I saw before, my forehead acupoint hurts suddenly.

Jun Qingyan said that the jade man was in the imperial city, but he couldn't find it, because the aura was clearly in the imperial city.But there is a secret room in the royal study of the imperial brother, and there are many traps, maybe the Wan'er that Jun Qingyan is looking for falls into the hands of the imperial brother.

When the truth comes out one day, Jun Qingyan and the emperor's brother will surely become enemies.

Even though Jun Qingyan is the person on my cusp, but I helped him, I feel sorry for Brother Huang.And Brother Huang is my elder brother, even though he is not close, he has spoiled me for more than 20 years after all, if he helps Brother Huang, I will feel sorry for Jun Qingyan.

At that time, I will really help no one, and I will be caught in a dilemma.

I pondered for a day and a night, and the next morning, I called the meatball.Guessing that Dongtao has got the order of the emperor, and now she is not far away from me, even when I talk to Routuan.

I really guessed right, Dongtao's most loyal person is always the emperor brother.

But now there is nothing to worry about.

I said to Routuan: "Princess Chengyue is going back to Zhao. I have to shut myself up and think about my mistakes, but I can't go to see her off. I have a good relationship with her. Since I can't see her off, let her come to Qingyu Palace for a drink. Let's talk about it." It's not in vain to meet the fate of acquaintance."

Brother Huang told me not to leave Qingyu Palace, but he didn't say that others were not allowed to visit me.

When I said this, Dongtao had nothing to say.

Bai Wan came rather quickly, as soon as Routuan left Qingyu Palace, Bai Wan arrived on her hind legs.Dongtao came to serve tea, and then stood by my side.The lid of the cup lightly touched the rim of the cup, Bai Wan said with a smile: "I heard that the princess and His Majesty had a quarrel."

I sigh.

"It's my palace who did something wrong and made Brother Huang unhappy." I said, "Princess Chengyue is going back to Zhao soon."

"Left tomorrow."

I said: "The mountains and rivers of the country of Zhao are good, and it has raised such a beauty as Princess Chengyue." I looked at her with burning eyes, hoping she could understand what I meant.Bai Wan glanced at me, then at Dongtao.

There was a silver light flashing, falling into Dongtao's body.

She put down the teacup.

"If you have something to say, just say it. I've lived too long and don't like to listen to oblique words."

I glanced at Dongtao, her eyes were glazed over, she seemed to have been poisoned.I was relieved, and said straight to the point: "You are going back to Zhao tomorrow, can you think of a way to mix me with the team going back to Zhao?"

"You want to leave the palace?"

I coughed, "That's right."
