Chapter 3 Chapter Three

Sheng Yan lived in Chongfu Palace for a few days, the emperor was paying homage to the imperial mausoleum, and hadn't come back yet. But the more she waited, the more panicked she felt.Obviously she knew him, but she was always guessing in her heart, wondering how the man who smiled so gently at her in front of Sansheng Pond would appear in front of her. Moreover, when she met him, what should she say, how to say, what to do, and how to do it? But no matter how you think about it, the day of meeting will always come.One day when she got up, the courtyard was quiet except for Wu Zhaoshen, who saw her coming out of the room and said with a smile: "This morning, someone from the Empress Dowager informed that everyone is allowed to go out of the courtyard and walk around."

This courtyard is the inner palace city, and everything in the harem is within reach of the courtyard, so everyone can't wait to go out and see where they will live in the future.What's more, the emperor must be here today. She didn't know why other people would have known the news early, but she just smiled at Wu Zhaoshen, changed her clothes carefully and went out.This dress is light green in color. In this spring, it is bright and not too delicate.After walking a few steps, she felt that her waist was a little bigger, but she had no choice but to think, go back and change it.

It was the best time of spring, she was led to the imperial garden by the palace servants, and saw the flowers in the garden blooming like brocade heaps. "In front is the Lingbo Pavilion, and the Queen Mother is listening to the music inside. You can go and see me, Miss," said the palace man. She followed the palace servants towards the Lingbo Pavilion, walked casually in the imperial garden, and saw the roses on the rockery, red and white, and lotus money coming out of the water, small and round.Spring is the same in the whole world. The palace maid usually didn't have much activity, and soon sprained her foot and couldn't walk anymore, so she had to point the way to her.She walked all the way, roses, peonies and begonias in spring, clusters of flowers.

When she passed a tall rockery, she saw a cluster of flowers hanging from it, hanging high in the air.She stood below and looked at it, the flower was extremely beautiful, blooming wantonly in the blue sky, she didn't know what it was, she just thought the color was bright, red and lovely, so she stood there and took another look.When I lowered my head, I realized that a man in scarlet clothes came up alone. She saw that the color of the clothes was pure and the material was the best, and it was embroidered with ancient Kuilong dark patterns.Thinking to himself, this person must be of some noble status, so he can come and go freely in this palace.Maybe it's King Rui, the emperor's elder brother, the one who controls the government?

She turned her side to let him go first. But he stopped on the path of the rockery, looked at her, and asked with a low smile, "Are you Sheng Yan?" His voice was soft, like a whisper in his ears.She was slightly taken aback, thinking to herself, this person is not like the legendary King Rui.I didn't know what he meant by talking to me, so I just nodded slightly. "I heard Wu Zhaoshen mention you yesterday. You are very similar to what she described." He said casually, brushed her shoulder and walked over. When she raised her head, he turned back to look at her. The two of them met face to face.

He is as gentle as jade. She is as beautiful as a flower. She stood under the wisteria flowers on this rockery, and the bright spring sun was blurred. Under the gorgeous purple flowers, she seemed to be emitting a blazing brilliance, and her face was shining brightly. He is delicate and handsome, even wearing such rich scarlet clothes, his face will not look pale, and there is an unconcealed freshness in his smile.This is the temperament that has been soaked and precipitated in the books for a long time, and the whole body seems to be covered with smoke. Sheng Yan unknowingly compared the emperor with him, and thought to herself, it was bright for a while.

One is introverted drow, and the other is extravagant. She hurriedly turned her face away and stared at the flower on the cliff, still a little flustered in her heart. So he smiled, turned around and walked over, grabbed a thick wisteria on the edge of the cliff, tried the foothold on the rockery, and climbed up. Sheng Yan stood below and watched him pick flowers, and slowly climbed down, but unexpectedly her foot stepped on the ground and almost fell down. In a moment of desperation, she stretched out her hand to support his waist.He glanced down at her, and whispered, "It's okay." She woke up, quickly withdrew her hands and backed away, her face so red that there was nowhere to hide it.

He handed her the flower in his hand, Sheng Yan saw the red flower lying in his hand, emitting a faint gleam, she stared at his hand, but dared not reach out to take it. The entire rockery was covered with wisterias, and her whole body was enveloped in the violet flowers of the wisterias. He looked at her, and felt a sudden coolness around him, and a cool breeze blowing on his face. Smiling, he actually pulled her hand over and gently placed the flower in her palm. She blushed, shrank her body back a bit, and hurried to the front holding the flower, never daring to look back at him again.

When he came to Lingbo Pavilion, he kowtowed to the Queen Mother and reported his name.The Empress Dowager was a little interested, so she deliberately looked at her a few more times. When she saw her unfit clothes, she was slightly displeased. After gesturing her to get up, she turned around and asked the maid: "Why hasn't the Emperor come yet?" "The emperor was halfway there, and suddenly lost interest, so he dumped us and walked away." The maid said hastily. The queen mother was noncommittal, she knew the emperor's temperament long ago, and she didn't like to get together with so many people, so she put down the teacup and said, "Let's go to enjoy the flowers by ourselves. The emperor is busy with political affairs, so he can't compare to us."

Looking back, she saw Sheng Yan's hand was tightly clenched, and asked casually, "What is that in your hand?" Sheng Yan looked down, and saw that the flower was still tightly held in her palm, and her knuckles turned white from holding it too tightly.She slowly spread her hands, and found that the flowers had been squeezed into a ball, and the juice was all stained on the clothes, and the red was dyed on the light green, which was very conspicuous. She lost the flowers in a hurry, not knowing what to do for a moment.The Queen Mother knew that her father had passed away and her family was not in a good situation. Seeing her panicked appearance, she felt disgusted in her heart, thinking that she was not a lady, so she said, "Hurry up and change your clothes."

Sheng Yan hurriedly bid farewell, left the Lingbo Pavilion, and walked up the path, surrounded by the sound of birds singing and countless flowers blooming. But she knew in her heart that she had failed extremely in front of the Queen Mother today, so tears fell down without realizing it. After leaving the Imperial Garden, Sheng Yan went back alone.After stopping and walking, I realized that the palace is extremely empty, and even a slight breeze blows through the tall rooms, it is still cutting people.All the palaces are tall and cramped, so majestic that there is no room for them.She heard her own footsteps echoing in the air. A chilly air surrounded her. She wiped away her tears silently, looked up at Gao Tian, ​​and pressed it on her head.In such a big palace, he had no mother since he was nine years old, so how deserted it must be inside. Thinking of him, she calmed down unconsciously and comforted herself. When meeting for the first time, the Queen Mother should also know that she would panic. After a long time, she will naturally know her true nature. There was a faint sound of a flute in front, playing a piece of "Linjiang Fairy", far away, a kind of lingering that seems to be absent, especially moving. She stood still and listened for a while, the sound of the flute was long and long, like a warm spring day, which made her feel much more at ease.She was not familiar with the path in the palace, so she could only lean against the wall and listen quietly.Suddenly, the sound of the flute rose to a higher level, as if the membrane of the flute had been blown, and she became dumb. She was in a daze for a long time, and turned around to leave when she saw a figure suddenly appearing in front of her. fall. The man hurriedly grabbed her wrist and asked, "Why, did you scare you?" She looked up and saw the vermilion dress with Kui dragon pattern.It turned out to be the one who picked the flower for her.In her heart, she felt that he made her upset the Queen Mother, so she immediately shook her hand away from his palm, thinking, this man is so rude. But he has a very good temper, he only waved the flute in his hand, and said with a smile: "If the membrane of the flute suddenly ruptures, you will know that someone is eavesdropping." "I only heard that eavesdropping on others playing the piano will break the strings, but I haven't heard that eavesdropping on others playing the flute will break the membrane of the flute." Speaking of someone else?" "So you can also play the flute?" He asked with a smile, his voice was warm and peaceful, just like his flute. Dizi, her mother who is also considered a scholar once taught her.In such a hard life, let them find some happy things.She nodded, and the servant next to her hurriedly gave her a flute. The flute is excellent, clear and well-proportioned.She stretched out her hand to take it, and as soon as she approached her mouth, the man knew she was talking about Linjiang Immortal. The sound of the flute is clear and bright, and the throat is faint, and it is round and round with the dripping oriole in the garden, like pearls and jade falling to the ground. Attracted by the sound of her flute, he also took a flute and put it on. Her breath was weak, and her voice was lingering and melodious, while his voice was thick and long. Come, daylight shakes.On the flowers among the leaves, even the sound of the wind stopped for a while, and Wan Lai lost his voice.Those two wisps of unvoiced sounds, like entangled clouds, elevate and entangle each other, resounding against the sky. She wanted to just try a few notes, but at this moment she couldn't do it by herself, so she continued to play. Linjiang Xian has four styles and two tunes. It was originally classified into Gaoping tune, and later generations also performed it into Xianlu tune.When playing the flute, Gaoping tune and Xianlu tune can be combined.It's just that at the end of the piece, her tone changed, and Xianlu tune ended in a low and slow tone, while his high-pitched tone was Linjiang Xian's third ge, because it had to add two characters, and the sound was especially long.But her woman's strength is a little weak, and today she encountered unhappy things, and she couldn't connect with such a dangerous energy, so she still had to end with Xianlu. The ensemble of the two people suddenly separated, and each put down the flute in a sense of loss. This wonderful performance ended in a snake tail. She returned the flute to his hands, and looked down to see his hands, green jade flute, white fingers, shiny and moist under the sunlight.This person can move freely in the palace, and he is not the emperor, he must be King Rui.He turned out to be such an amiable character. Thinking that although he is the emperor's elder brother, it is not proper to meet in the harem like this, Sheng Yan blushed slightly without realizing it.Suddenly I heard someone approaching not far away, footsteps rising and falling, apparently a group of people were coming here, and I heard voices coming, saying: "I don't know who is here, playing so beautifully." Knowing that someone was coming, she panicked for a moment, turned around and left, forgetting the etiquette.He heard him calling her from behind: "Sheng Yan?" She quickened her pace and left in a hurry.He threw off the servant, quickly chased her up, pulled her to the alley in the nearby palace, and said: "Come here, it's closer to the Chongfu Palace." She lost her mind for a moment, seeing that those people were about to see her, I had no choice but to follow him hurriedly in the strange palace.When he realized that something was wrong with him, he didn't know where he was, so he could only bite the bullet and follow him. He was very familiar with the paths in the palace, turned left and right, and reached the small gate on the side of Chongfu Palace.She thanked him, which meant to stop him.When she entered the yard, she turned her head slightly to see that he was still smiling at her, and hurriedly lowered her head and turned around to a place where he could not see. No one else came back yet, only Wu Zhaoshen was sitting in the courtyard alone, recording all the big and small things in the courtyard in his notebook. Wu Zhaoshen saw her and told her to sit down and have a cup of tea.She held the tea bowl and took a few sips, thinking of the King Rui who seemed to be younger than the emperor just now, he didn't match the rumors she had heard at all.For some reason, he felt uneasy in his heart, and asked, "Wu Zhaoshen... I heard that Wansui's mother died when he was nine years old?" Wu Zhaoshen shook his head and said, "No, he died when Wansui was six years old. At that time, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor were in the palace. By the time they came back, it was already too late." Sheng Yan thought in amazement, but he obviously said that he died when he was nine years old, and he remembered his mother's last words clearly, how could it be different?After hesitating for a long time, he asked: "The emperor's mother came from a humble background, so it must have been difficult in the palace, right?" Wu Zhaoshen said with a smile: "Concubine Yi is the daughter of the empress dowager's family. Although she was the maid of the empress dowager when she first entered the palace, she was granted the position of imperial concubine early on and was favored by the former emperor. How can she come from a humble background? In contrast, Prince Rui's mother is considered humble. She was originally a maid in the concubine's palace, and she didn't even have a taste. She was seen by the late emperor once in a while, and she was favored once and forgotten Unexpectedly, she became pregnant. Originally, the first emperor himself would not admit it, but because it was indeed recorded in the daily life record, he allowed her to give birth to a child and gave her a grade similar to mine. The first emperor didn't like her, and even the eldest son of the emperor King Rui has always been underestimated, after the concubine gave birth to Long Live, the emperor immediately made him the crown prince, but King Rui only gave the emperor his name when he named him." Sheng Yan said: "I heard that King Rui now controls the government and the people, and has a domineering temperament, but..." Wu Zhaoshen didn't answer, but turned to the side and said, "Oh, I'm going to move that orchid, the sun is already shining." Sheng Yan was speechless, regretting her slip of the tongue. "It's my fault, I'm talking too much today." Wu Zhaoshen smiled, stood up and said, "I went to see the queen mother yesterday, and the emperor asked about you. He is very curious about the girl born on the same day. The emperor is gentle and benevolent, It's excellent." She nodded, thanked her quickly, got up and went back to the house.I just feel that what he said was still in my ears that day, but today it sounds completely different, and I feel a little bored.It seems that I have done something very wrong, but I don't know where it is wrong for a while.Just secretly heart palpitations. I also thought, what's wrong with me, I knew to be careful when I came here, and always pay attention, but I still kept doing and saying wrong.How do I change everything in the past to adapt to this place and live a good life in such a place? After Sheng Yan left, Wu Zhaoshen was sitting alone looking through the records when she heard someone calling her outside.She hurriedly put down her pen and went out. When she saw the man, she was startled. The man was wearing light blue casual clothes, with only a bright yellow jade belt loosely tied around his waist, and a dozen guards in brocade clothes with knives stood behind him.The only person in the palace with such a posture was King Rui.She knelt down and kowtowed.He didn't ask her to get up, he glanced into the courtyard and asked: "That woman named Sheng Yan hasn't met the emperor yet, right?" She had heard about King Rui's various behaviors, and she was terrified in her heart, she thought, fortunately she didn't intervene when Sheng Yan said that he was not, otherwise she might not be able to escape today.He shook his head again and again at the moment: "I haven't seen it before." "It's not a blessing for the imperial court for a person like her to stay in the palace." He was obviously suppressing his anger and whispered. Wu Zhaoshen hurriedly kowtowed in response: "But the emperor and the queen mother think..." "Of course I will go and explain to them, as long as you know what you should do." He didn't allow her to finish speaking and interrupted her. Wu Zhaoshen, who has seen many changes in fate in the palace, thought to himself, this woman might not be able to escape King Rui's tricks if she stayed in the palace, so why should I get into any trouble for her? So he replied: "When the servant girl looked at her appearance, she felt that this girl was too beautiful, and she might have a bad life. What's more, she was lonely since she was a child, and her fingers and palms were thick. She might not have the fate of wealth and honor, and it would be difficult to live in the palace." "So that's how it is." King Rui calmed down a little, nodded and said, "I'll discuss with the Queen Mother, you should prepare for her going out." After walking a few steps, he looked back at Wu Zhaoshen who was still prostrate on the ground, and said, "If you If you can help, I will naturally thank you very much.” Sheng Yan returned to her room, changed the oversized clothes and put them on the couch, compared her waist with her hands, then took a needle and thread, and sewed her waist down.Before she was halfway through sewing, she suddenly felt a slight movement outside, so she opened the door to look, only to find that the person who sent her back just now was still behind the yard. She frowned and asked, "Why are you still here?" He looked ahead and said, "It's not right to go out now." She walked out of the side door and looked into his eyes, only to see Wu Zhaoshen kneeling in front of a person.The man was wearing an azure robe with his back to her.She felt that this person's back made her feel a little strange. She hesitated whether to go over and have a look, but she heard him beside him talking to himself: "What will happen when he comes here?" When she heard this sentence, she stopped in horror for a moment, thinking of what she did and said wrong just now, her heart sank, and she thought, the more things in the palace, the more shouldn't be, the less you should pay attention to them, anyway, it has nothing to do with her. She turned around and went back to the room, picked up the clothes on the couch, and concentrated on narrowing her waist with fine stitches.Never mind the outside again. The man saw King Rui leaving outside, so he came over and said: "Sheng Yan..." When he saw Sheng Yan sitting there, he was stunned for a moment. She sat quietly in the thin shadow, concentrating on sewing the clothes in her hands, her butterfly-like eyelashes cast rosy traces on her face, her eyes rolled occasionally, water rippled under the eyelashes like tears Light, so moving. After a long time, he can still clearly remember today, the ordinary house, the bamboo couch with the apricot-yellow brocade mattress, the green shade outside the window, and the leaves rustling in the breeze.He stared at her drooping face for a long time, even his breathing slowed down. A lifetime is so long, you can meet many people, in such a big palace, there are all kinds of different beauties.But at this moment, her quiet expression suddenly hit his heart. She heard his voice and looked up at him.He stood at the door, and after a long time, he found a word and asked, "What's wrong with this dress?" "The waist is a bit bigger, I need to change it." She sewed her clothes and said in a low voice. He said, "Throw away clothes that don't fit." Sheng Yan stopped her hands and thought of the first dress she wore when she was ten years old. She still clearly remembers that her mother made her own old dress smaller and made it stitch by stitch under the dim light. Flowers are embroidered where they have been worn.No one here would understand my own joy at that time. She said nothing and did not contradict him.She knew that these people were different from herself, even if she said it, it was just like begging for mercy. Seeing that she was silent, he didn't speak anymore, and the two of them were in the room in silence.Only outside the window behind her, the branches and leaves have been undulating restlessly in the wind. After lunch the next day, the Clothing Bureau in the palace delivered the palace makeup and costumes for the pilgrimage to the emperor tomorrow. Everyone in the yard delivered them one by one, but only Sheng Yan, who waited for a long time but no one came to deliver them. She finally couldn't help going out of her room, but seeing that the servants had already gone out, she hurriedly chased after her and asked, "Grandpas, do you have too many clothes that you missed?" Those servants looked at each other with a smile, shook their heads and said: "There is no omission, it is the Empress Dowager who took pity on you, your blessing has arrived." Sheng Yan was at a loss and didn't know why, and after returning to her room to sit for a while, the Queen Mother had already handed down an order at the door. It turned out that the Empress Dowager felt sorry for the loneliness of Sheng Yan's mother and daughter, and Thien allowed Sheng Yan to go home from the palace and be dependent on her mother. Amidst the whispers around, Sheng Yan was in a trance for a moment, not understanding what was going on.She repacked her things, thinking that she had just left the house five days ago, bid farewell to her mother and came here, and now she was suddenly sent home again, hurriedly sent people to come, and hurriedly sent people to leave, what happened? Could it be that what happened in the past few days was just a dream, or just a joke? Following the palace people along the high palace wall, she took her simple things and walked towards the gate of the palace. Red walls, yellow tiles, high and blue sky. In such a large and empty palace, the brick floor stretches continuously under the feet, and the sky above the head wants to press down on the top of the person, as if fate is suppressed in the person's body. Why didn't he stop himself from going back?Could it be that he just joked about it at the time, does he regret it now? She quietly reached into her bosom and held the Nine Dragon Pendant.Long Yan's majesty stung her palm, and tears flowed down without her noticing. The side door to see the palace is right in front of you. As long as she turns a corner, she will be exposed to the outside world, and her future fate will be completely different. Just as she was about to take this step, someone behind her suddenly asked, "Where are you taking her?" Several servants looked back and saw the walking chariot passing by here, as well as the emperor on the chariot, and quickly knelt down. Sheng Yan looked at the man in the emperor's clothes in a daze.It was the person who climbed to the rockery for her to pick the flower in the imperial garden.With a gentle smile, restrained brilliance, and poetic temperament, against the background of the dragon pattern all over her body, she clearly feels weak. He got down from the chariot, walked in front of her, held her hand, and said with a smile, "Fortunately, I saw it, otherwise if you go out, then..." There was a faint look of helplessness on his face, as if Not knowing what to say, he paused, turned to look at the palace gate, and said, "Fortunately, it's just a step away." Sheng Yan only felt that she was in the floating clouds, and her whole body had no strength. He is the emperor, so he is the emperor. So, who was the person who gave her the Nine Dragon Pendant? There is a pair of figures in Sansheng Pond, who is that one? Just outside the palace gate ten steps away from them, King Rui stood there alone with his hands behind his back, looking at the sky, it was almost noon. There was a slight smile on his face.Is she coming out soon? Naturally, he couldn't go in and pick her up from the palace.Just wait here, wait for her to step out of the palace gate, and from then on, everything will be perfect. Willing to be a pair of swans, soaring high. In the sparse shadows of apricot blossoms, play the flute until dawn. The sun gradually shifted, and the glare of noon, as if the future was pouring down, ferociously pressed on the three people inside and outside the palace gate. Tongyin Palace, where Emperor Shang Xun lived in spring. Sheng Yan followed Shang Xun in blankly, looking at the tall and spacious house, the palace is tall and majestic, and the momentum is sparse.Tall sycamore trees are planted all over the base of the palace, and it is time to bloom. Strings of lavender sycamore flowers are in full bloom under the blue sky. The pure white and purple colors seem almost to be deserted, which is quite different from other palaces. She expected that this was not an ordinary place, so she turned her head to look at Emperor Shang Xun who brought her here. He smiled and said, "When King Zhou Cheng was playing with his younger brother Shu Yu when he was young, he once rewarded him with tung leaves as a token of the princes. Duke Zhou Thinking that the emperor had nothing to say, he persuaded King Cheng to seal Shuyu in the land of Jin. The Tongyin Palace was set up in the palace to show that the emperor could not be shaken by his words." The allusion of Tongye Fengdi, Sheng Yan was taught by her mother to read and write since she was a child, this is known. "It's rare that every sycamore tree here blooms so well." She said softly. "Of course, if a tree blooms poorly, it will be dug up immediately and replanted with good trees from other places." He said, "If the trees in the palace can't bloom well for people to see, then they will be destroyed. What is the need for existence?" Sheng Yan was secretly startled, bowed her head and remained silent. "The phoenix trees here bloom so well, so I live here now." He grabbed her wrist and led her in. This is his bedroom, but now his own hand is held in his, Sheng Yan was extremely flustered for a moment, only felt his heart twitching, slowly flowing warm blood. He pulled her to sit on the porch, this corridor was completely covered in the shade of sycamore trees, the branches of sycamore trees were soft, and the flowers bloomed so much that the branches were overwhelmed, a purple and white area surrounded them, only the gaps between the flowers and leaves, there were A thin wind blows in. The two were silent for a long time, and he asked, "Why are you sent out later?" She was taken aback, and looked up to see his pair of eyes staring at her, dark and clear, as if she had never seen anything in the world.She only felt that her chest was so sad that it was about to burst, she couldn't speak, she opened her mouth, but tears rolled down first. The emperor thought that she was sad because she was going to be sent back, so he gently put his hand on her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I don't care about the affairs of the court, but in the palace, I will definitely keep you." She knew that the emperor had been in poor health since he was a child, and had never been involved in state affairs, and it was King Rui who made the decisions.But such a mistake, could it be God's destiny? How could she have thought that the man who met by chance in the heavy rain and smiled gently at her should be King Rui, who is known for his violence. One mistake is a lifetime. There was so much confusion in my heart that in the end there was only a blank space left.She felt him bowing his head to kiss away the tears on her face, his lips were soft and warm, his movements were gentle, cautious like a young animal, it seemed that she was the sycamore flower on the branch at this time, so weak that she couldn't help being delicate, afraid that her strength would be a little weak If it gets too heavy, it will hurt her. In shortness of breath, she smelled the aroma of sycamore flowers.The aroma was dizzying, like poison. Kiss... Sansheng Ikegami, there was once someone who kissed her so tenderly. And he was slowly rubbing against her ears, her breath disturbing her body almost trembling.She clenched her fists in fear, and her nails were deeply embedded in her palms, causing sharp pain.As if a sharp knife had been cut through her mind, she suddenly had a cold thought, she struggled to push him away, and said in a panic: "Please let me go out, my majesty, I... I already have... I have myself outside the palace." the person I like……" But he held her hand tightly, and with his beautiful hand, he gently raised her chin to look. She saw his clear dark eyes, and when he frowned, his expression fluctuated a little, but he calmed down immediately, smiled slightly, and said, "Since you have chosen to enter the palace, you have already given up your previous love." It's all over, who has you liked, what's the big deal?" He put his arms around her shoulders, hugged her chest, and said softly, "Besides, you will never see him again." She was terrified, but in the end she could only cry out: "Your Majesty..." "Shang Xun. My name is Shang Xun, Sheng Yan." He whispered in her ear, reached out to hold her hand, then lowered his head and kissed the back of her hand. Her hand trembled, feeling that he had gradually moved along her wrist. Move the lips up. The turbulent reflection in the Sansheng Pond, the one who accompanied her swaying in front of the blue sky background, was not him. not him. But how can a woman resist this gold-threaded coiling dragon on a bright yellow background and the emperor's majestic dragon face?What can she do? On the night of her father's death, her mother held her hand and said, Ayan, let's live well. Live well.No matter where you are, who you meet, or what God gives you, you must let yourself live a good life. She slowly closed her eyes, even though the corners of her eyes were wet, it was just the pain of Taohua after a night of rain. From now on, I will spend my time by this person's side and look forward to this life.Everything in the past is like a cloud of smoke. This is her fate. The sky gradually dimmed, and the setting sun left golden shadows on the grass and trees. The sun has not yet set, but the moon has already appeared.The silvery full moon left only a trace on the light blue sky. King Rui stood outside the palace gate, and the surroundings were completely silent at this moment.As if he had come to his senses suddenly, he raised his eyebrows and strode into the palace. The guards at the gate saw him, and all of them just paid respects to him, and no one stopped him. When he went to Chongfu Palace, someone called Wu Zhaoshen out, and asked, "Why haven't you sent her out yet?" Wu Zhaoshen replied in astonishment: "It was already sent out of Chongfu Palace at the end of the afternoon." When the women in the harem were sent out, they had to go out through the side door next to the Qinglong Gate. How could they leave the Chongfu Palace at the end of the afternoon, but they haven't come out yet? He walked slowly from the gate of Chongfu Palace to the gate of Miyagi.Next to it is the left vertical road, which leads to the north and south of the palace city. People in the palace often take this shortcut to get from the palace gate to the inner palace. Standing there, looking towards the inner palace, the palace city is really too big, and the road seems to have no limit. He asked the servant next to him, "Did the Empress Dowager come here today, or... the Emperor?" The servant hurriedly lowered his head and reported: "The emperor has been here, and just happened to meet a girl who was going out of the palace. Long Live Lord seemed to know her, so he took her back to the palace." "I see," he said slowly, standing there watching the sun go down.The entire imperial city is a piece of gold. "I see." Seeing that his face became so gloomy, the servant was startled, and hurriedly lowered his head, but did not dare to make a sound.He had already left quickly, and went to Tongyin Palace alone. When we arrived at Tongyin Palace, the sky had gradually darkened.All the flowers are piled up in the dark blue sky like white snow. The guards at the gate saw him coming in such a hurry, they didn't dare to stop him, and let him walk all the way to the front of the hall.The servant waiting outside hurriedly stopped him, and said softly: "What's the prince, you can talk about it tomorrow." He stood in the dark, the servant couldn't see his expression, but he clearly felt that he shivered, as if there was a terrifying chill hurting people invisible from his body.The house attendant moved aside nonchalantly, not daring to stop him. He walked to the outer hall with big strides, facing an agarwood screen of a lady with hairpin flowers, separating the inside and the outside.The faint candlelight came through behind the screen, flickering in front of her. All of a sudden, the whole body is cold. He turned around slowly, and there was only a full moon in the sky in front of the hall, and a large snow-like phoenix tree, flowing in the wind, as if when he looked back, it seemed like a lifetime away. It seems like a lifetime away. In that heavy rain, the eyes of the two people met for an instant, as if seeing their own life. At that time, it was raining all over the world, far and near.
