"—However, forming a party for personal gain and plotting rebellion are serious crimes that implicate the nine clans. At that time, the person involved will not be the only adult, but anyone who is related to the adult will be suspected. At that time, in order to protect themselves, those courtiers have no choice but to write a letter Arguing for your lord, the two parties are fighting each other, and you are bound to die. The queen sees that the situation is out of control, so naturally she can't. At that time, the emperor will come forward again, pick you up high, and put you down gently. Not only can your lord save your life, but you can also Keep your job."


"And after the dispute between the two parties, both parties' vitality has been damaged. At this time, only Duan Wang and his party are out of the matter. The current empress and Ninghe King will inevitably suspect that the man behind the scenes is Duan Wang. The purpose is to kill people with a knife and confuse the two parties. , kill two birds with one stone.. After that, King Ninghe and Queen's eyes will definitely shift to Duanwang Yidang, my lord, only then can I breathe a sigh of relief."


Meng Ran explained the reason in detail, and Gongsun Bozhong had already been convinced in his heart.Sighed, "Now that I think about it, the Eighth Prince's style of conduct is quite similar to his master's. He is also very strategic, courageous, and capable. It's a pity that the Eighth Prince's age is... alas."


Meng Ran's eyes flickered a little, and he secretly lowered his head and sipped a glass of wine.


If Uncle Gongsun knew that Nangong was the Eighth Prince, he might be so happy that he couldn't sleep all night.

King and Palace.


With a sound of "the emperor has arrived--", ​​a group of people followed the emperor into the Prince's Hall.


Outside the hall, the emperor raised his hand and blocked the people behind him from the outside.


He frowned slightly and slowed down.


When he came to the hall, Lan Xi greeted him first, "Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince is practicing archery in the plum grove."


The emperor frowned, "You are still practicing archery before your body is fully recovered."


After speaking, he went straight to Meilin, and Lan Xi followed closely behind.


In the plum grove, Shangguan Hongyu's white clothes are more than snow, his black hair is like ink, and he is loosely tied up with a white jade hairpin.


The bow and arrow in his hand were on the string, and his long green eyes stared at the target in front of him, but he didn't shoot it.


There is only one figure in my mind.


Back then, Brother Chu didn't tell Xue Yi's name because he was worried about revealing his identity, but he himself didn't care and never asked.


He never thought that the woman he had been thinking about in his dream for two years was just an illusion, but who would have thought that one day, that woman would actually stand in front of him, and he would hardly forget her.


Finally, he knew why he had such a strong and familiar feeling for her when he suddenly glanced at him on Dijing Street.


How can this be a coincidence.


Brother Chu, if you love her so much, how can you have the heart to let her go to another country while holding another woman in your arms.


Is it because you have changed your mind, or what kind of difficulties do you have?


And at this moment, how should I face her.


'Boom! '


One arrow off the string, easily hit the red heart.


Merlin trembled, and the sky was filled with colors and red. What came to mind was the scene of Meilin that day.


Hearing footsteps approaching behind him, he didn't look back, but said lightly:


"I ordered you to back down, why are you bothering me again, back down!"


"Your Highness, the emperor is here to see you."


Lan Xi whispered.


Shangguan Hongyu was slightly taken aback, then turned around, "Father, why are you here?"


The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, and the wind and frost loomed on his sideburns. He hesitated for a moment before saying:

"I'm going down to court, thinking of coming over to see you, and I have something else to tell you."


"Father, if you have anything to say, you can speak directly."


Shangguan Hongyu wiped the bow and arrow in his hand with silk.


The emperor looked at the plum grove, and then at the arrow shot by the prince, his eyes were filled with emotion:


"Hongyu, your archery skills are getting better and better. It's just that it depends on when you practice archery. When you return to the palace in the paddock, you have never been in good health. Don't be too tired."


A slight smile appeared on Shangguan Hongyu's beautiful face, the wind swept gently, and the loose black hair fluttered on his temples.


"Father, you don't need to worry too much. The 'imperial doctor' whom my father invited to treat my children these few days has already felt very good. Daily supplements, medicinal treatments, and smoked herbal soups are more effective than usual medicines. Much better, and my body is much more refreshed."


The emperor's mind moved, his eyes flickered, and he said:

"It's only a few days, and we still need to cultivate more."


"Father just said that he has something to tell his son, what is it?"


Shangguan Hongyu said lightly.


The emperor hesitated again, and then said:

"Last night at Youshi, the Niande Street outside the imperial city was flooded, Tianyue Tower was burned to ashes, and even the city tower was implicated."


Shangguan Hongyu said:

"I heard about this matter. Last night, the flames burned most of the sky, and no one in the palace knew about it."


The emperor nodded, and pondered for a while, "When the Tianyue Tower caught fire last night, Concubine Jing happened to put a lamp in that building to pray, I don't want to"


"and many more!"


Shangguan Hongyu raised his arms and stared over in shock: "Father, what did you say?!"


The emperor was somewhat surprised by Shangguan Hongyu's expression, and said:

"Unfortunately, only the servant girl who followed Princess Jing escaped. The maid saw that Princess Jing was burned to death in the building unfortunately, and there was no bones left. Originally, I thought that she had extraordinary medical skills and could save you from years of illness. After being freed from the serious illness, I still thought that after three years, I might be able to point out you as a side concubine, so that she will be by your side to serve you from now on. Blessing"


The emperor spoke directly and emotionally.


Lan Xi, who was at the side, saw Shangguan Hongyu standing there like a statue, and suddenly, he felt that that clear and beautiful face was covered with frost-like coldness.


It's just that the breeze was blowing, but the long figure was shaking violently.


Fear spread from the bottom of her eyes little by little, and she rushed forward while screaming, but it was still a step too late.


A smear of dark red blood spilled from the corner of Shangguan Hongyu's mouth, and his peerless figure fell violently. The plum red falling all over the sky, like rain, sprinkled the whole garden and fell all over the ground

The emperor stayed there for a while, his shocked expression gradually turned to a dark sigh.


This was something he never expected.


It seems that this child is probably already in deep trouble. As the father, he has ignored his son's feelings.


－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－—————————————————————————— ———————————


At this time, Xiaoqi General's Mansion.


"General, I have tried many times, but every time I spit out the soup, I can't drink it at all, please punish me, General."


The maids knelt on the ground.


Long Qingtian frowned deeply, and glanced at the pale and haggard face on the couch.


He sat on the head of the bed, supported the drowsy Abi on his chest, and stretched out his hand, "Bring the medicine bowl."


The maids quickly got up from the ground and quickly brought the medicine bowl over.


He pinched her lips with one hand, picked up the spoon from the medicine bowl brought by the maid with the other, and slowly poured the soup from Abi's mouth, mouthful after mouthful.


The maids smiled happily, "Okay, the girl has drunk the soup, the general has a solution!"


After drinking a bowl of medicinal soup slowly, Abi coughed dizzily.


"Bring the handkerchief!"


Long Qingtian stretched out his hand, and a maid immediately handed over the handkerchief.


He carefully wiped the medicinal juice spilling from the corner of her mouth for her, and brushed her hair sticking to her sideburns behind her ears.


Abi in her arms turned around, her brows were furrowed together in extreme anxiety, and she uttered nonsense from time to time:

".Princess, princess..., Abi is here, Abi is here"


"Princess. Sorry. Sorry."


"Abi is not angry with the princess?"


The atmosphere in the room was suddenly heavy, and the little maids were infected with tears in their eyes by Abi's weak whispers.


I can't express the pain in my heart.


Long Qingtian lightly raised his hand, and the maids all looked at each other and retreated quietly.


He stared quietly at the disturbed face.


With a heartbeat, he bent down unconsciously, and his thick lips fell on her babbling red lips, just a little, and Abi suddenly woke up with a cry of surprise.


"Princess--"


The four eyes met, Abi's cloudy eyes were still stuck in the chaotic world, Long Qingtian suddenly moved away, a layer of fiery red burned his cheeks, and his resolute lines were a bit awkward.


However, he naturally picked up the veil and wiped the sweat from her forehead when she woke up.


"You, you're awake."


Abi's first reaction after waking up was to look for Xueyi.


He didn't care where he was, and he didn't care that he was lying in Long Qingtian's arms, but he tugged on his sleeve and shouted urgently:


"Where is the princess!"


Long Qingtian was silent.


What should come will always come, and what he worries about cannot escape.


"I asked you where the princess is, tell me!"


Abi felt faintly uneasy, and shouted anxiously, regardless of her identity.


"She failed to escape and stayed in Tianyue Tower."


Long Qingtian said hoarsely.


Abi suddenly relaxed, "What does it mean to stay, what is she doing there, Tianyue Tower is on fire, what is she doing there, you tell me she is dead, the princess was burned to death, right!"


"."


Long Qingtian's eyes were burning, and he looked closely at Abi.


His silence undoubtedly gave Abi a clear answer, and Abi stepped down her shoulders dejectedly.


Long Qingtian clenched and loosened his hands, suddenly he just wanted to hold her in his arms.


Abi lowered her head, her low voice was full of grief, but also undeniable firmness:

"Prepare my horse!"


Long Qingtian clenched his fists, and responded silently. After a while, he asked his servants to prepare their horses, and he took Abi to the Tianyue Tower in front of the imperial city.


In front of Tianyue Tower, there were still people crying miserably.


The glorious building collapsed in an instant, and the wind and rain washed away overnight, leaving only the messy, charred wooden frame in front of me.


Abi's thin figure swayed in the wind.


She heard that she could make a wish here, and her wish was very spiritual, so she didn't go back home, so she wanted to come here to pray for the princess.


But the sky lantern was released, why did the wish turn into ashes in an instant.


If she didn't leave in anger, if she could learn more forbearance, learn the forbearance of a princess.


If she returns home earlier.


If only she had gone to save the princess sooner.


如果

"Do not----"


She couldn't believe that the princess was in this pile of ashes, she couldn't believe it!


The princess must be alive!


Must be alive!


Long Qingtian clenched his hands into fists suddenly, and saw Abi rushing into the ruins that had been doused by the heavy rain with a piercing cry, her thin figure laying all over the ruins, trying to dig through the thick Burnt wooden shelves.


"No, no, you can't just die like this, princess, princess! Abi is sorry for you, Abi is sorry for you."


"How could you leave me alone!"


"I'm not mad at you, I'm just sorry for you."


"How can you not want me."


"Come out, come out! Don't hide, you are hiding from Abi, right? Are you angry with Abi? Come out, Abi promises to take you away, take you back to Beicang, we won't go back to the palace , let’s go back to my mother’s hometown, to the prairie.”


Go back to the grassland, no longer be ridiculed, no longer be bullied.


However, in the ruins, there was a dead silence.


Abi collapsed on the burnt Tianyue Tower, tears of despair flooded her vision.


princess



How could Abi bear the heart to leave you alone

"stop!"


Long Qingtian drew his sword and flew over, and flew the dagger in Abi's hand, Abi fell into his arms, and he anxiously checked the injury on her neck.


Fortunately, it only scratched the epidermis and did not hurt the blood vessels. If he was later, she would already be dead by now.


"Although she is dead, you can still live!"


There was shock and anger in Long Qingtian's eyes.


"No, the princess died because of me. I failed to protect her well. I am ashamed of my mother."


Abi's hoarse voice revealed great grief.


"I won't let you die!"


Abi looked up at him suddenly, "Why do you rely on the power of the palace? If I want to die, you can't stop me forever."


"I didn't want to stop you, I just didn't want you to die."


Long Qingtian's eyes were dim, and he stared deeply at Abi.


Abi stared at him blankly, her surprised expression gradually paled, and finally fainted weakly in his arms.


Holding Abi in his arms, Long Qingtian flew onto the horse, rode the horse and raised its hooves, and headed straight for the mansion.

On the third day, in front of King Jing's Mansion.


Early in the morning, a large number of people crowded in front of the mansion, and these people came here for the snow clothes.


At this time the government hall.


"Housekeeper, what is going on with these people outside?"


The old concubine's face was very solemn.


Butler Feng, who had just seen the situation, said in a hurry:

"Returning to the old lady, this group of people came to the door. They came to deliver the coffin for the princess, saying that the princess was their savior. Now these people have come to the door to help the princess of the Beicang Kingdom to see her off."


Steward Feng glanced at the old concubine with a more solemn expression, and continued:


"It's just that the people are dissatisfied with the situation of our funeral, saying that they want the emperor to issue a decree, grant titles, send the spirit off with princess etiquette, and transport them back to Beicang, and what else?"


"What else, you finish it all at once, I, an old man, can't stand the toss."


The old concubine couldn't sit still anymore.


Butler Feng said tightly:

"And Mr. Nangong got married today. Some of the servants forgot to order and brought the wedding box in through the front door instead of going through the side door of Xiangxue Garden. It is impossible to let the people know that there is a happy event in the garden today, and now there is a commotion. It is said that the princess sacrificed her life to save the people of Dongling Kingdom. Although the person who got married was the master of King Jing, it is not appropriate to have a happy event in King Jing's mansion, so she was quite dissatisfied and made a big fuss. There are too many people, and the servants It’s hard to suppress for a while.”


"Hi,"


The old concubine sat up with a cane, "I really can't stand their troubles with my old bones. I really shouldn't have let this evil star get in the door. If I die, I will add bad luck to us!"


"Grandmother, my aunt died to save the people. Why do you still say such things? Zhuzhu really doesn't understand why you hate aunt so much. Auntie is such a nice person, why doesn't Zhuzhu think she is unlucky!"


Shangguan Zhuzhu's eyes were red and swollen, and she pouted unwillingly.


"You little kid, what do you know!"


The old concubine glared at her angrily, but Shangguan Zhuzhu flinched.


Shen Bijun came up and pulled Shangguan Zhuzhu, Shangguan Zhuzhu pouted and said again with courage:

"Zhuzhu has grown up, she is no longer a child. Zhuzhu only knows that her aunt is a woman from the Beicang Kingdom, but she can sacrifice her life to save our people. How can such a kind heart be a evil star? According to Zhuzhu, It’s our palace’s fortune that’s about the same.”


"Zhuzhu, don't say any more, I see you made the old grandmother angry!"


Shen Bijun clenched Shangguan Zhuzhu's hand, and Shangguan Zhuzhu turned and ran away angrily.
