Chapter 24 What the hell do you know?
When I was stunned, Bai Wending came suddenly, and I realized that I had actually said what I thought: "...I chose the wrong material..."

Originally, his expression was three points cold, but now that he got closer, a faint chill oozes out, making me feel like I am sitting in a windy valley, and the bone-deep chill penetrates through my clothes.

"Choose the wrong material?" He smiled faintly, "How can there be so many good trees in this world?"

His smile was against the cold golden thread on his wide sleeves, and there was a bit of bleakness, this bleakness was like a sharp knife, piercing his own blood.

Just like a bonsai that a craftsman has been working on for many years, it will have to be uprooted one day.

"Brother Huang, no one is competing with you for the throne. These things are also for the stability of Zhou and Jiangshan. Why do you want to act arbitrarily?" Bai Mi gave up resistance and finally said.

His answer made Bai Wending turn his chilling gaze to him, which made me breathe a sigh of relief.

This is the question of everyone in the room. Bai Mi is the adopted son of the emperor, and he has no possibility of inheriting the throne. All he did was to make the Dingzhou Dynasty stable, but why did Bai Wending keep demolishing him?What secret did Princess Lingxuan hold on him that made him desperate?
"Father has always admired you, and this crown prince will not disobey his father's wishes. Fortunately, the delay in spring has another benefit. The effect of the medicine is adjusted according to the dose of the medicine, and the effect is different. When the crown prince ascends the throne, you will accompany me." The Supreme Emperor and his old man spend their days happily in the harem, forgetting all worries and troubles. At that time, even this king will be envious." Bai Wending said with a smile, "My prince found that those days in the valley were fake, but Your youthful and ignorant appearance is indeed much more pleasing."

He wants to turn Bai Mi into a useless person, like his pet.

I looked at Bai Mi in a blink of an eye, hoping that what Bai Wending said was not the truth. My body moved, and my heart sank.

This time it's not fake.

Spring is late, and the effect of the medicine varies with the size of the dose, but the increasingly thick and suffocating aroma in the room shows that the effect of the medicine is extraordinary.

Could it be that, as Bai Wending said, the people in our room will really become mentally handicapped?

I was feeling desperate, when I suddenly heard the clanging of bowstrings outside the room, I wondered if Bai Wending had a double killing intent, poisoning and using arrows at the same time?
Suddenly, thousands of celadon cups fell on the marble floor, an explosion sounded, sawdust flew across, and a huge air wave blew the curtains in the room to the roof. The aroma has disappeared, the wooden window lattices around have been shattered, and the evening wind is gushing in from all directions.

My ears were so shaken by the huge sound that I couldn't hear the slightest sound for a long time. I could only see that Bai Wending's face turned livid amidst the flying dust.

"Infinite Venerable Buddha..." After a long time, the temple master joined hands and slowly entered from the door of the room. Beside her was Yeluqi, the Prince of Cochin that we hadn't seen for a long time.

Thinking about the complex grievances and grievances between them, I figured out one thing. The temple master obviously refused to obey Bai Wending's jurisdiction, and of course Bai Wending didn't take her seriously, as long as he ascended the throne. One thing is to uproot the temple master. In order to protect himself, the temple master rebelled ahead of time.

Her ally is Yeluqi, the prince of Cochin.

As soon as she entered the room, she first went to Princess Lingxuan's bed to have a look, then clasped her palms together and proclaimed the Buddha, stepped forward to straighten Princess Lingxuan's messy skirt, and sighed: "Don't worry, there is no one in this world who can protect you." Live in secret."

I don't think she is so kind, but I think she is confirming whether Princess Lingxuan is dead or not... Only by thinking elsewhere can I restrain myself from looking at the place where she is lying, and I don't want to think about her past at the head of the village. It looks like selling Wufu meatballs.

Bai Wending said indifferently: "The temple master is really busy, and he has to intervene in everything."

The temple master raised his eyebrows, flicked his fly whisk, smiled and said: "His Royal Highness, if Prince Ning is in trouble, even this temple cannot get rid of it, and this temple has no choice but to help."

I found a very interesting phenomenon, although she said that she came here for Prince Ning, but from entering the room to now, she looked around, but never looked at Bai Mi, as if there was a void , only dark and deep holes.

Could it be that they were born together and were both spy chiefs, but they belonged to different factions. In order to compete for favor in front of Emperor Wu Chong, they were suspicious of each other?hate each other?

But I observed Bai Mi's appearance, judging by the calm and unwavering expression on his face, he had nothing to do with this temple master. Of course, his face was always calm and unwavering, even Mount Tai exploded in front of him. Even if it is smashed, there is no wave.

Since it was the temple master who controlled the room, the soldiers and horses who were aspiring to the top were taken down again. As the saying goes, the world is changing, and the situation is changing as well.

At this time, Yeluqi closed his eyes slightly and sniffed: "Amberx, cinnamon, sandalwood, Anxi... and one or two other species with not very special fragrances, but their efficacy is more powerful than the magic jade I paid tribute to." As a result, His Royal Highness has spent a lot of thought, right?"

Bai Wending listened to his words, but he didn't panic. Instead, he sat down on the chair in the hall, and said calmly: "What did Prince Yelu say? Why doesn't the prince really understand?"

"Although ordinary people can't smell or detect those one or two special scents, Emperor Wu Chong is not a fool. Your Highness, you are too impatient. You must know that trying to cover up the matter will backfire."

"You think father would trust you?" Bai Wending lightly knocked on the table and smiled slightly.

Yeluqi also smiled: "His Royal Highness... your transformation of form and shadow is trying to cover up. Although it is extremely brilliant, it is not unheard of except for Princess Lingxuan."

His voice was originally mixed with some foreign accents, but now it sounds even weirder when he prolongs his voice. It reminds me of him pretending to be an old master in the valley, and I don’t know where his normal intonation came from at that time. of?
Apparition, he used such a strange word?My heart skipped a beat suddenly, and I looked at Bai Wending in a blink of an eye, only to see his face turn green and pale, and there was a trace of timidity in his eyes.

I thought I was wrong, and wanted to see more clearly, his expression was as calm as usual, which made me think that I was really wrong, but out of the corner of my eye, I could see the clothes on the side twitching. Ripples, he was trembling?

This is almost impossible to happen to him... I have only seen his indifference and cruelty, his indifference and detachment, his use of people as tools, and his regard for human life as worthless, but never Never seen him trembling with fear.

What kind of inside story forced him to be like this?
I suddenly understood why the death of Princess Lingxuan made him desperate to kill and silence her. This secret that frightened him made him desperate.

"What do you know?" Bai Mi who hadn't spoken for a long time suddenly asked, his gaze was directed at the temple master, "What does Shen Cao's outer palace know?"

The temple master bowed his head and remained silent...Only from my angle can I see clearly that she is dodging his gaze.

why?
"Let me tell you why?" Yeluqi smiled, "Originally, the king thought that he would keep His Royal Highness the crown prince when he was in the villa, but Prince Ning planned a strategy better than the king and took the crown prince. Your Highness saved me, this king is actually giving Prince Ning a chance, you must know that it is human nature for a country to change hands, but Prince Ning does not appreciate it at all."

He clapped his hands, and a person walked in from the door. The flame-like red clothes turned into a bronze mirror like the door, and Bai Wending walked out of the mirror... This was actually the shadow of Bai Wending who had disappeared for many days. Summer Tim.

The only way to know his true identity is to observe his eyes... Sure enough, no matter how he controlled it, his eyes still drifted towards Xia Han.

Xia Han didn't know... She returned him a slightly bored expression.

"Tell Prince Ning, what did you do for His Highness the Prince during those days when you were his shadow?"

Xia Tian looked around, cupped his hands, and bowed to Bai Mi, Bai Mi said lightly: "He is his shadow, these kings already know that the emperor's brother is a prince, and his status is precious. There is no way to arrange such an arrangement." No way."

Yeluqi smiled: "That's true. My royal father still has more than a dozen substitutes. To prevent people from plotting against him, he would send the substitutes wherever he went. But he never asked the substitutes to appease the concubines for him and confuse them." Royal blood."

Hearing this, everyone in the room showed surprise on their faces, no matter if they were sitting or unable to move.

Bai Mi even cried out: "What did you say?"

"Prince Ning still remembers the little prince who died before the full moon? His Royal Highness married two concubines. The daughter of Lin Dazai was named Ruren, and the daughter of the crown prince and Taifu Shen Xueyin was named Liangdi. But the two She hasn't conceived for many years, and she is even more neglected. That old guy Shen Xueyin is not easy to get along with. His own daughter is treated coldly, and he will not let it go. He has been in office until the crown prince's master. He is the prince's master, so he has a way to let her The prince committed the crime. In that year, Shen Liangdi conceived and gave birth to a little princess in October, but before the full moon, the little princess went away for no reason... Commander Xia, come and tell Prince Ning, who is this? child?"

His words echoed in the room like thunder, making me vaguely guess the cause and effect, but when I thought about it clearly, my mind was like a cloud of fog.

Before I could figure it out, guilt flashed across Xia Tian's face. He looked at Xia Han, took a step forward, bowed his head and said, "Prince Ning, this subordinate deserves death, but he treats Xia Han as a subordinate." The lives of the closest relatives are threatened, and the subordinates have to follow."

His acknowledgment made Bai Wending lose all color on his face. There was a whistling sound, and the teacup beside him flew like a sharp arrow, and it slammed towards Xia Tian. Two fingers suddenly came from the side, pinching the cup.

Yeluqi put down the cup slowly, put a cup of tea in the cup, put it to his lips and drank it, and said with a faint smile: "Your Highness, if you are impatient, why don't you tell the reason yourself?"

Under the moonlight, Bai Wending pressed his left hand on the leg of the chair, and it turned white: "Xia Tian, ​​do you no longer care about your family?"

Xia Tian turned around and bowed respectfully to Bai Wending: "Subordinates naturally have to take care of their family members. The Prince's Palace has always taken care of them. How can I forget them? Because of this, my subordinates figured it out. The truth of all this is exposed to the eyes of the subjects of the world, so that the subordinates can get rid of His Royal Highness's care." "Really?" Bai Wending smiled.

After hearing his answer, I was startled. Before I could figure out where the shock came from, I saw Bai Wending's figure flicker, and in the next moment, his hand was already firmly grasping Xia Han's neck .

"Look, as long as the crown prince is willing to put his mind to it, no matter when and where, your so-called close relatives will still fall into the hands of the crown prince." Bai Wending's face was ferocious, and he no longer lost his former calmness.

Xia Tian's expression also changed, and he shouted urgently: "Don't..." He tried to save him, but he was cautious, not knowing where to start.

Xia Han's complexion was swollen, and she could no longer make any sound. I seemed to hear the clucking sound of her bones.

But Yeluqi didn't care: "By the way, there is also General You's daughter, You Ping. Back then, because General You was in power and had a large number of soldiers in his hands, the so-called master of meritorious service, General You was already dead when he met the new emperor. There is no sign of not kneeling. In order to make a contribution to Emperor Wu Chong, His Royal Highness set up a plan to marry You Ping, but in fact he secretly communicated with You Ping, which made General You lose all face and forced him to marry You Ping in advance. The mutiny was quickly wiped out. And it was Commander Xia who ruined You Daqian's reputation, right?"

The wind blows into the house, and the veil in the house flutters, and the broken peony red branches on it reveal a faint golden light, and the boy door god painted in gold clay is still smiling innocently, she struggles in his hands, her temples are disheveled, just like many years ago She was struggling in his trap, and I saw tears streaming from the corners of her eyes, and there was a sudden realization in her eyes: "So it's you?"

She has already recalled the past, remembered everything at that time, recalled that dream, the beautiful dream he wove for her.

She stared straight at the anxious face in front of her. Although she had the same resemblance to the person behind her, she only had him in her eyes.

The figure rose suddenly, as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, two red figures were fighting together. Xia Han fell to the ground, rubbing her throat with her hand, staring blankly at the figure, as if she had already been fooled. up.

I hurried over and helped her up, only to hear her muttering: "It turned out to be him..."

The two red figures came and went suddenly, with wide robes and wide belts, and sleeves like the wind, as if casting a glowing shadow in the sky, I can no longer tell which of them is real and which is fake, the same moves, the same killing intent, The same faces seemed to be dancing in front of the mirror and singing on the lake, but Xia Han's eyes never left one of them.

The man was forced to step back, his eyes were everywhere, and I could see clearly that the place he walked was already bloody.

"He used himself to block the man's sword in the sleeve and saved me..." Xia Han suddenly said, "Did he save me many times? That's why I'm so lucky?"

She is the luckiest person in our village besides me.People in the village often say: Go hunting beasts, take Xia Han with you, as long as she is around, you can fight anything!She is the totem that has been blessed in the village. Wearing it on her body can avoid disasters and disasters, and she can earn a lot of money.If there is her, any beast that flies in the sky or crawls on the ground can hit it no matter how ferocious the beast is.And Xia Ji became the third luckiest person in the world because he was always with her.

It turned out that it wasn't God's favor, he was her God, and his blessed totem was like my imperial sister.

I turned my head and looked at the place where she was lying. There was a faint smile on her light blue face: Ah Dan, you are the only one in this world...

No, will Xia Han go through the same pain as me?

I hugged her shoulders and looked over the field, only to see him retreating steadily.Lie Yanhong's clothes did not show color, but the blood slid off his clothes and dripped on the bluestone floor carved with twig patterns, making the twig flowers bloom like the other shore flowers that suddenly bloomed, absorbing human life...

"No, you guys save him..." Xia Han took a few steps on her knees, looked at the watchman, and then at Yeluqi, "Save him..."

"Why should I save him?" The priest flicked his whisk.

"Coming here is his own choice..." Yeluqi smiled faintly.

They had already agreed that he was their victim, but for her, he had already put his own life aside.

I wanted to tell her that begging them was useless, but I could clearly see the despair and desolation in her eyes, like an object that had been waiting for a long time, but was smashed to pieces when it arrived.I looked at Princess Lingxuan lying on the ground.So, I just hugged her tightly and listened to her save over and over again: "Save him, save him..."

Bai Wending's face was cold and mad, and he punched his wound.Every time he was hit, there would be pillars of blood splashing from his body, and the other shore flowers that were as gorgeous as peaches and plums on the floor would bloom more and more, more and more.He already hated this shadow that was out of his control. He was just a shadow, but he was the proud son of heaven. He was another branch that grew out of his control...

As soon as Xia Tian retreated, the Bianhua flower on the floor had absorbed his life, and he fell again, but at the moment of falling, he looked over here... I can see clearly, there is a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth Smile, so warm and satisfying, as if saying, don't be afraid, I will accompany you...

His smile made Bai Wending's expression even colder, and he picked up the fallen dagger from the ground with his bloody fist.

He walked towards him step by step, Xia Han no longer murmured begging, on the contrary, she also smiled, and I heard her whisper: "I will also accompany you."

She was already prepared to be with him, regardless of life or death, so she no longer begged for help.

I stood up, but felt my legs and feet were sore and weak. After walking two steps, I fell to the ground again. Looking around, my parents were no better than me.

The blood on Bai Wending's hand stained the dagger red, his figure is not far away from him, I can clearly see the viciousness and madness on his face.He walked towards him step by step, and he was a bonsai with branches to be pruned, but this time, he was afraid that he would uproot him.

"On a bright moon night...short Matsuoka, the people are gone, the words are empty..."

Xia Han slightly closed her eyes and groaned softly. There were crystal tears in the corners of her eyes, but there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, as if a person on a journey had walked in the desert for a long time, and finally came out from the long yellow sand and saw that oasis. Even if it's just a phantom of Qionglou, Nanke Yimeng.

She sang these few lines over and over again, accompanied by the heavy footsteps chasing after her life, and the ticking of blood, but her body became colder and colder...

"Xia Tian, ​​you can't die. If you die, she can't live..." When I came to my senses, I realized that the cry came from my own mouth, but my face was already wet.

With tears in my eyes, I watched him stand up staggeringly from the ground, but the blood on his body was still dripping down, staining the blue veins completely red.

His pale paper-like face was set against the bright red clothes, and there was a long shadow of red on his face. I knew he couldn't last long.Bai Wending is like a hunter who has driven a wild beast into a trap, and the blood-stained short blade is about to pierce his chest.

"Poor autumn... a curtain of sparse rain and a dark west building... all romantic, people are ashamed, flowers are still the same, people are thinner than yellow flowers..."

A graceful singing voice suddenly sounded in the room, and I looked around, only to see a person I couldn't believe was singing in a low voice with his eyes slightly closed.

Mother?

She can sing, and her singing voice is so good, like the soft spring breeze blowing through the leaves, the gurgling spring water sliding over the round pebbles, and the high-quality silk sliding over the smooth skin... But in my impression, only when she scolded the old man The usual village women shouted and cursed.

"How do you know how to sing this poem?" It was not me who asked this question, but the temple master, with a look of surprise on her face and a trembling voice.

"You save him, save him, I'll tell you why I can sing this song?" Mother smiled slightly, the moonlight shone on her face, which made her look a little strange.

The cyan figure flashed, and before I could see it clearly, the temple master held a fly whisk and stopped Bai Wending in front of him: "Your Highness, why do you have to kill everything, after all, he has warded off disasters for you for many years."

But Bai Wending didn't answer, the light of the saber flashed suddenly, the short blade stabbed at the Guanzhu's body with the cold light, the Guanzhu didn't show weakness, the two fought together.

But Xia Tian couldn't hold it any longer, and fell to the ground all of a sudden.Xia Han broke free from my hand, walked toward his knees, crawled to his side, and held his hand... At that moment, in their eyes, everything around them disappeared, only the each other.

Regardless of life or death, she will follow him, so she is no longer afraid of his life or death.

Blossoming Bana flowers made of blood were dragged by her dress like the glow of the sky, and they were on the other side of the glow, clinging to each other's hands.

Now that the temple master had made a move, Yeluqi waved his hand, and the arrow outside the window pointed at Bai Wending, he said with a smile: "Your Highness, since you know that this king already understands you well, why do you continue to struggle? This king came back this time and brought honey tea, a special product of Jiaozhi Kingdom, why don't we sit down and have a cup of tea, and talk about if you really become emperor, will you embarrass the half-lived Emperor Wu Chong? "

With Yeluqi's words to disturb him, Bai Wending's mood was already in chaos, and now he was even more out of order. The martial arts master of the temple was originally a little behind him, but he was evenly matched with him.

I don't understand the vague meaning of his words. I don't understand why Bai Wending would embarrass Emperor Wu Chong, but this riddle made Bai Wending's steps even more scattered, and he was hit on the chest by the palm of the temple master. .

"Infinite Venerable Buddha..." The temple master swept his whisk away and said calmly, "His Royal Highness, you have a noble status, why bother to humiliate yourself?"

"What's going on?" Bai Mi finally asked after a long time of silence.

"By the way, I haven't finished this story yet, but I was interrupted by them, but I don't know where it went..." Yeluqi smiled lightly, "Your Highness Prince Ning, after hearing so much, you still don't feel strange? Why did His Highness the Crown Prince's own flesh and blood die before the full moon, why didn't he get close to his concubine, even if the concubine's family was from a well-known Dingzhou family?"

His words made the room quiet, only Bai Wending's heavy breathing could be heard.

Bai Mi was silent for a long time, and after a long time, he said: "You don't have to pretend to be mysterious and sow discord!"

"It seems that His Royal Highness Prince Ning has already guessed the answer, but he just refuses to believe it. If Emperor Wu Chong knew the result like Prince Ning, he would regret how he executed his only son back then."

only son?
This sentence lingered in my mind like a thunder, why did he say the only son?Bai Mi is the adopted son of Emperor Wu Chong. Emperor Wu Chong has two princes and one princess.The eldest son of the emperor, Bai Lei, rebelled and was locked up and imprisoned by Emperor Wu Chong.In that year, the imperial edict that the eldest son of the emperor was abolished was posted everywhere, which shows how much Emperor Wu Chong hated this person who betrayed him!
I faintly guessed the truth, a truth that I couldn't believe. I remembered the scented lip balm on the water glass when he was healing in my boudoir... the faint fragrance in that room.

He doesn't let people get close, even my approach makes him extremely disgusted, he unconsciously reveals that he is different from Bai Mi...

Only Bai Mi made him lose his composure.

"Back then, Concubine Hua gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix twins. One was the second prince Bai Wen, and the other was Princess Zifeng. That year was the eighth year of Dingzhou, right? That year was really eventful. She died by giving poisoned wine, and Princess Zifeng was in charge of the dark night organization named Zifenghuang for Emperor Wu Chong. She was assassinated by thieves and seriously injured, so she also died. This made His Royal Highness the Prince. Prince Ning is an adopted son, I don't know if I'm right?" Yeluqi said, "Your Han family's emperor's heirs are really rare, but you lost two at once, which shows that there are many disasters in war, and you will still be envied by heaven. "

I was shocked by the fact hidden in his words. His words gradually confirmed my guess, but I couldn't believe this fact.I looked at Bai Mi in a blink of an eye, but saw that his eyes were slightly closed, as if he had fallen asleep.And Bai Wending stood blankly aside, his face pale, his hair in a messy bun, his eyes were fixed on Yeluqi fiercely, as if he was going to eat him up.

All the nobility and elegance on his body were gone, I felt sorry for him suddenly, knowing his true identity, then, he had an explanation for Bai Mi's strange behavior.Bai Mi became his second brother, and there was an insurmountable gap between the two.What's more, this gap already existed when "she" replaced her elder brother's position?

"Princess Zifeng... are you here all right?" Yeluqi finally called out "his" name, "I think my king traveled thousands of miles to ask you to marry me, but what did you bring to me? It was merciless." Jiesha, my third younger brother and fifth younger brother died at your hands! This king has always admired you very much, so I swear to Changshengtian that I will marry you back to Jiaozhi, and marry my third and fifth younger brothers. Buried together!" He frowned and smiled slightly, speaking softly, but his eyes were as cold as ice.

So many years later, he paid tribute to Dingzhou and set up a trap to catch her.

"Aspirations in vain" is no longer aspirations in vain.

Princess Zifeng bowed her head in silence, and after a long time, she raised her head. Her messy hair draped over her face, casting a few shadows on her smooth and jade-like face, but in an instant, the expression on her face She returned to Bai Wending's cold and noble personality: "It's up to you?" She laughed, "It's just a prince of a small country with few people..."

Her words made Yeluqi's face almost transparent: "If you marry Jiaozhi, you will be the most honorable queen of my Jiaozhi, and Dingzhou will also get countless jewels and treasures. How can you support the left and right like now? The treasury Empty?" He sighed softly, "Is it really so easy to sit on the throne of the Zhou Dynasty? Or did you do it for him?"

He pointed at Bai Mi, but Bai Mi didn't seem to hear it, and still closed his eyes.

He didn't answer, but the temple master answered, and she sneered: "Of course she did it for him. If it wasn't for her, how could Emperor Wu Chong adopt an adopted son with a different surname? She gave Prince Ning the highest position, thinking that he could be He manipulates it in his hands, but he has to be accepted by others!"

Her tone of voice was full of sarcasm, and even a little bit of yin and yang, as if she wanted to vent the grievances accumulated for many years. Who is the master of this temple?What kind of grievances do you have with Princess Zifeng?
Princess Zifeng did not respond to her sarcasm, but walked slowly to sit on the precious chair in the hall, and then said softly: "Wu Que was ordered to kill you, right?"

Who is Wuque?

The face of the temple master suddenly changed, he looked at the fake princess whose neck was broken on the ground, and suddenly smiled: "Princess Zifeng, you are ungrateful to others, and you shouldn't be surprised that she betrayed you." yes."

It turns out that we all thought wrong, it was not the execution order issued by "Bai Wending", the death of the imperial sister was because of the temple master, this Wuque was the person pretending to be me, and Lingxuan was also executed by the temple master's order long princess.

Princess Zifeng nodded and sighed: "A princess from the old dynasty would not know my secrets. The people who know my secrets are the people around me instead." She sighed and looked towards Bai Mi, her face remained the same Still, but because I know her identity, I always feel that her appearance at this time is nondescript, and she no longer has the dignity and pomp of the past.

She smiled and looked at the temple master: "Then, who is Master Mingchen who is in charge of Cancao's Waifu?" She tapped the table slowly, "In my opinion, this chanting and dyeing People with fancy words will know."

She looked at mother, it was mother's singing that made Xia Tian saved by the temple master, the song she sang was something I had never heard before.

I turned my head and looked at her, I saw her skirt hanging down, sitting sideways on the chair, the indoor lights cast a velvet light on her figure, elegant and graceful, like a flower blooming in the dark The orchids, with a faint fragrance.

"His Royal Highness still remember me as an old man?" Mother laughed softly.

Princess Zifeng's complexion changed again and again, and finally said: "Caiyan, you are Caiyan, it is impossible..."

"There is a national beauty with wine, and the fragrance dyes her clothes... At that time, the princess often asked the maidservant to help the princess comb the twin fairy buns, and then folded the long peony hairpin on the head. The princess liked the beautiful peony flower most at that time, But now, the princess’s Prince’s Mansion is afraid that even the peonies are afraid to plant? The servants are favored by the princess. When they sent someone to assassinate Concubine Lu Gui, in the chaos, people stabbed the servants. It deviates a little from the vital parts, allowing the slave to survive. After so many years, the slave has never understood why it was such a coincidence that the slave didn't take a piece of apricot satin and sent it to Concubine Lu, so why did this innocent disaster fall on the slave? It wasn't until the moment I saw His Royal Highness that the servant realized that the princess had great ambitions from then on, and those who had ambitions naturally got rid of those who hindered her ambition. The servant has been with the princess since childhood, Serving the princess for many years, he was the one who knew the princess best, but it was this 'knowledge' that forced the servant to die." The mother sighed, "The servant was still ignorant, but after dying once, I realized why I was Ding' the year when the crown prince was ill, followed the princess, and the people who served the princess either died of typhoid fever or fell into the pond and drowned. The servant should thank the princess for leaving the servant as the last..."

"The bun you wear has a spirit that is not found in all the concubines in the harem. You cook and eat, and even the royal chef in the imperial dining room would be willing to bow down. If it is not forced, I really don't want to do it!" Princess Zifeng sighed. The noble concubine wanted to murder her mother and concubine, so she put diamond powder in the food for her mother and concubine. Fortunately, you were able to see through her tricks, which aroused the anger of my father. That's when the assassination order was issued... After this incident, the inside of the palace has really changed beyond recognition."

"Yeah, it's completely changed. The power in the harem is in the hands of Concubine Hua. There is no more intrigue in the harem. The harem is harmonious, the government is clear and clear, and the emperor's orders are clear and there is no obstacle. But that year was also an eventful year. However, Princess Zifeng was seriously ill and died. The whole country mourned, and the emperor was unable to go to court for many days because of this. In the civil society, an epidemic occurred in Qukou Village. In order to shirk responsibility, the local county magistrate sent people to massacre the village. When the epidemic was just a common disease, it was already too late, that year was really eventful, even Qin Tian monitored the sky, and said that the purple emblem was slanting to the west, and there was a vision in the sky, but the heavens protected it, and it was orthodox in the end." Mother said faintly To be honest, the conversation is elegant and the diction is accurate, which is quite different from the way of throwing chickens and scolding dogs in the past. For a moment, I have the illusion that the person sitting there is just someone else wearing a mother's shell.

"Outside the palace, it's different after all. Caiyan also knows to inquire about the times? Is this all due to Master Wei?" Princess Zifeng turned her eyes to her father who was sitting next to her mother.

The old man remained silent and only looked at his mother with worried eyes.

"Yes, fortunately there is him. If it wasn't for him, how could I have escaped? Fortunately, he was favored by the emperor and told the prince about "The General Essentials of the Martial Arts", so he was able to walk in the harem, which happened to save the servants. "

"Zhihu Wei Yeyun takes every step of the way, so how can there be a coincidence?" Princess Zifeng said, "He is an old minister of the former dynasty, restraining his edge, and serving the master of the new dynasty. The more other people can handle, the better." Princess Zifeng said.

She turned her eyes to mother, there was no trace of warmth in her eyes, she hated mother, but at this time, her panic and anxiety at the beginning had disappeared, which made me secretly suspect that the master and Yeluqi had already disappeared. Grasping the overall situation, seeing her being pressed every step of the way, into a desperate situation, why didn't she panic at this time?

Although what they talked about was earth-shattering conspiracies, they spoke softly, like gossip. Just thinking about the thrilling events at that time makes people feel chills all over the body. All exude a touch of coldness.

But the temple master, who was in control of the overall situation, didn't say a word at this time, his face was pale and he hid in a corner.

I remembered the song that my mother used to save Xia Tian... This temple master was originally a cold and heartless person, but just singing a few words, why can the temple master turn pale with shock?
"But I didn't expect that even Yun Qiuyue, the head of Cancao's outer mansion, would be held by you." Princess Zifeng smiled faintly, "I thought about it and sent people to investigate for a long time, but I couldn't find it. With a little bit of clues, it seems that you have indeed grasped the truth of the tragedy in Qukou Village?"

She looked around the room leisurely, stopped for a moment on the temple master, and then looked at Yeluqi with a smile: "Prince Yelu, you are very good at telling stories, why don't you tell me about Yun Qiuyue's parents and family back then?" Did the king send someone to assassinate him? Does he have any relationship with the emperor's younger brother?"

From the beginning to the end, Yeluqi had an expression of confidence, but at this moment, after hearing Princess Zifeng's words, his face was ashen and he didn't say a word.

At this time, I suddenly realized what she meant by the tragedy in Qukou Village. In that heavy snow, she saved him, and she followed him to become the assassin of Zifenghuang, but in the end, in order to be able to climb On the road to wealth and honor, in order to sever the relationship with her and to surrender to Princess Zifeng, he killed her family members with pain.

This story was told to me by Yeluqi when he became the owner of the valley, and it was buried deep in my heart like a thorn.

Is there another version of his story?
