The mysterious bird of destiny, the beginning of China

Chapter 210 Emperor Li Shimin dies!

"Seeing the life span of a person..."

Bai Zhi, who was hidden in Li Xinni's body, heard the words and pondered for a moment before replying: "Of course I can!"

In Bai Zhi's eyes, human life is like a candle. The candle that belongs to a child is bright but fragile; the candle that belongs to a teenager is bright and strong; the candle that belongs to a mature person is like the high sun!

And the old man is like a candle in the wind!

The Qingfeng who was talking to Li Xinni just now is like a candle in the wind.

In fact, Bai Zhi could tell how many days an old man had left to live, down to the sky!

Hearing what the divine bird said, she quickly asked, "How long does Qingfeng have to live?"

In her opinion, the first time she met Qingfeng was decades ago, and she must have spent a lot of energy traveling long distances to Chang'an City.

As a good friend, although Li Xinni hopes that Qingfeng can live a long life, he also needs to prepare for the worst. If Qingfeng... then leave Qingfeng in Chang'an City, and return to his roots after the defeat.

"Qingfeng..."

Bai Zhi recalled Qingfeng's fire of life, then sighed softly and said: "She still has two months...thirty days!"

"Thirty days..."

Li Xinni was stunned and stopped writing with the brush in her hand. She thought of her conversation with Qingfeng tonight. At that time, Qingfeng said that she planned to go back in three days and would be able to return home in two months.

In fact, Li Xinni could still clearly recall Qingfeng's eagerness when she said these words.

It turns out that Qingfeng had everything planned.

Two months to travel...

Hearing this, Li Xinni couldn't help but be silent for a while.

Then, she seemed to be discussing with Bai Zhi, and seemed to be talking to herself, murmuring in a low voice:

"What if I let her stay in Chang'an City?"

"However, she is so eager to leave, probably because she is unwilling to die in a foreign land..."

"But if she were to leave, it would be a long and tiring journey..."

In the end, Li Xinni shook his head slightly, not knowing what conclusion he finally came to.

……

The next morning, Qingfeng got up early. At the same time, Li Xinni had also gotten up and was sitting in the courtyard reading a book. When she saw Qingfeng getting up, she immediately smiled and said:

"get up!"

"Since you have come to Chang'an City, you should stay here for a while, so that I can fulfill my duty as a landlord!"

"Thank you Sister Xinni for the hospitality, but it's better to go back as soon as possible. If your grandson doesn't follow you, if you go back too late, I'm afraid my grandson will be anxious again!"

Speaking of her grandson, Qingfeng showed a kind smile on her face. This kind of smile Li Xinni had seen on the faces of her own parents and the faces of the parents of the children she came into contact with.

At this time, I saw it on Qingfeng's face again.

Li Xinni suddenly put all her plans for last night aside in her heart, and then nodded slightly, with a gentle smile on her face, looking at Qingfeng, and said: "That's good, the grandson at home can't be 'neglect'!"

"Hehehe...exactly!"

Qingfeng also smiled and nodded.

……

Qingfeng finally left, and both of them understood that this time they said goodbye, they might never see each other again in this life.

But when the two parted, they were not too reluctant to say goodbye, just like when Li Xinni left the mountain village, they said farewell lightly.

In the next few days, Li Xinni was busy in the Women's Palace and the Junzi Tower. The schools in the Junzi Tower and the Women's Palace also faced the entire Chang'an City with the help of Li Xinni.

In other words, the schools in the Women's Palace and the Gentleman's Tower are no longer closed schools, but schools open to the world.

All of a sudden, the young men and girls from the dignitaries' families in Chang'an City came to the Women's Palace or the Gentleman's Tower at the same time.

Study in its schools.

They don't care about what they can learn, but they care about the people behind the Women's Palace and Junzi Tower.

On this day, Li Xinni was in the school of the Women's Palace, looking at the students who were enrolling today.

I saw that there were many women in the school. They were not only women from the palace, but also girls from official families.

Just when Li Xinni was explaining the rules of the school, a dazzling divine light suddenly came out, and a divine bird suddenly appeared in the school.

Seeing this scene, the women in the school were stunned, looking at the sudden appearance of the divine bird, with a look of amazement on their faces.

At the same time, he stared at the divine bird even more intently, wanting to remember the appearance of the divine bird in his heart forever.

Li Xinni, who was talking on the side, was also startled by the sudden appearance of the divine bird, but she also instantly understood that the divine bird usually would not show its figure in front of others, but its sudden appearance at this time must have happened for a reason.

"Sacred bird, what happened?"

Li Xinni immediately asked in a low voice.

"Enter the palace as soon as possible..."

Bai Zhi didn't say much, just said one sentence.

However, when Li Xinni heard these words, he suddenly thought of something, and his beautiful face suddenly turned pale. Then he told the students in the school, stood up and left.

In the palace, the maids and waitresses around were in a hurry, and there were more soldiers in the palace, and their faces became more serious.

Seeing Li Xinni walking quickly, some soldiers saw him and quickly got out of the way and greeted him respectfully.

At this time, Li Xinni had no time to pay attention to the soldiers beside her, and she quickly walked back to the palace.

"Auntie, you are here..."

Outside a gorgeous palace, the prince was seen pacing back and forth outside the palace, wearing a crown.

Seeing Li Xinni approaching quickly, she immediately came up to meet him.

"How is Shimin doing now?"

"Father, he..."

Prince Li Zhi's temples are also a little pale. After all, he is already in his fifties, but it is a little weird to call Li Xinni aunt, who is still young.

"My father was reading the documents when he suddenly fainted. It has been nearly half an hour since the imperial doctor entered the treatment room!"

"Half an hour..."

Li Xinni felt uneasy, but she also understood that it might be today.

Otherwise, the divine bird would not let him enter the palace.

At the same time, the queen from the harem also rushed over. At the same time, the prince also called all the ministers in the court over.

In a short time, people were standing outside the palace.

However, everyone's eyes were turned to Li Xinni who was standing aside, as if they were waiting for Li Xinni to speak.

Li Xinni was silent for a moment, and then said to the imperial doctor outside: "Go in and tell the imperial doctor who is treating you, so that he...does not need to treat him anymore, and try to keep your majesty awake."

"Yes!"

The imperial doctor quickly entered, and a moment later, the closed palace door opened wide, and the imperial doctors came out one after another. At the same time, an imperial doctor with white hair and beard said to Li Xinni: "I have seen Princess Yong'an. Your Majesty has woken up and asked Yong'an to The princess enters alone.”

"it is good!"

Li Xinni nodded slightly, and then walked into the palace under everyone's gaze.

Everyone outside, including Prince Li Zhi, continued to wait.

Although the palace was bright, it was filled with a depressing atmosphere, making the entire palace look particularly dark.

Li Xinni entered all the way and came directly to the bed where Li Shimin was lying.

Li Xinni looked down and saw an old man with white hair and white hair lying on the bed. He was the emperor Li Shimin.

Seeing Li Shimin's current appearance, Li Xinni stopped but didn't know how to face it.

The person lying in front of him is his younger brother. Now, his younger brother is old, but he is still young. Suddenly, this made her feel deep regret, regretting her immortality and her ageless appearance.

However, now that things have happened, there is not much use in thinking about it at this time.

She looked at her brother, and Emperor Li Shimin also opened his eyes and looked at Li Xinni standing next to him.

Li Xinni quickly squatted down and looked at Li Shimin.

"elder sister……"

Li Shimin shouted weakly, and Li Xinni responded silently, waiting for Li Shimin to continue talking.

"I'm not envious, I don't envy my sister's ageless appearance..."

Every time Li Shimin said a word, he would pause for a moment, and then he said: "How many emperors in ancient times have longed for immortality? Qin Shihuang, the only emperor throughout the ages, only lived a lifetime, and he was not granted immortality by the divine bird!"

"Although Emperor Wu of the former Han Dynasty survived his second life, he voluntarily died in the end. In this way, I know that a long life is not of much use..."

"And the future belongs to future generations..."

Li Shimin looked at his sister, "But my sister is different. Ever since my sister came to Chang'an City, I knew that maybe one day in the future, my sister should be praised by future generations..."

"Sister, there is no need to be sad or cry. As long as sister always remembers Shimin, Shimin... will always live..."

"..."

"clatter!"

"clatter!"

"..."

Tears fell to the ground, and there was a clear cracking sound. Li Xinni looked at Li Shimin who had lost his voice, and naturally understood what his brother meant by his words.

Some people are dead, but he is still alive!

My younger brother has this confidence, so he does not care about the world.

Therefore, this is also the reason why he does not allow himself to be sad and cry.

She stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on her cheeks. Seeing this, the waiter on the side quickly handed over the brocade handkerchief respectfully.

However, he was rejected by Li Xinni.

After a moment of silence, Li Xinni stopped crying and then ordered the waiter who had been waiting for a long time: "Go..."

"Yes!"

The waiter respectfully exited the palace, and then sang loudly: "Your Majesty... has passed away!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a lot of crying outside the palace.

Li Xinni stood up, and then the waiters hurriedly came forward to take care of Emperor Li Shimin's appearance and posthumous matters.

Li Xinni didn't want to stay long, so she got up and left directly.

Outside the palace, Prince Li Zhi and many ministers looked at Li Xinni's leaving figure with different expressions on their faces.

……

When I walked out of the palace, I saw that a white cloth had been hung on the palace gate for some time, and it was even spreading into Chang'an City. It won’t be long before the city is full of vegetarians!

The Zhenguan era is about to pass. I wonder if the heyday of Zhenguan will pass?

No one to worry about.

After all, at this time, the Tang Dynasty was so powerful and prosperous that no other country in the surrounding area could match it!

Li Xinni stopped and turned to look inside the palace. After a moment, she stood up and left.

However, she did not return directly to the Palace Academy. Instead, she turned around and walked towards a mansion in the city.

Princess Pingyang Mansion.

Li Xinni thought of her sister, and her only living relative was Princess Pingyang at this time.

"elder sister……"

"Sister must be old too..."

Standing in front of Princess Pingyang's mansion, the soldiers in front of the mansion recognized Li Xinni at a glance. After all, no one knew the famous Princess Yong'an, the only person with an ageless appearance.

Even if you haven’t seen it, you have heard it.

Not to mention that he was the former bodyguard of Princess Pingyang's mansion.

"I've met Princess Yong'an..."

The respectful soldiers in front of him interrupted Li Xinni's thoughts.

"Yes, my sister is getting old too..."

After all, Princess Pingyang was several years older than the emperor, but she lived longer. Now, she should be in her eighties and about to turn ninety.

"Princess Yong'an invites you, the general has told you that if Princess Yong'an comes, there will be no obstruction!"

Hearing this, Li Xinni nodded slightly, and then followed the soldiers into the mansion. Then a special maid led Li Xinni to the hall in the backyard, where he met Princess Pingyang, whom she had not seen for a long time.

In the hall, an old man with snow-white hair was sitting on the bed. He was dressed in simple clothes and had a kind face. At this time, a group of three or four-year-old children were playing and playing next to her.

The old man looked at these children with a smile on his face.

At this time, after hearing the maid's report, he looked up and saw Li Xinni at the door of the hall.

"Sister is here..."

Seeing it was Li Xinni, the smile on Sister Li's face became even brighter.

However, because of Li Xinni's arrival, the children in the hall immediately stopped all their movements and stood beside Third Sister Li. They raised their heads and looked at Li Xinni curiously with pure eyes.

"Hurry up and call me grandma..."

Third Sister Li said to the children on the side.

And the children also called people obediently.

After Li Xinni sat down, Third Sister Li asked, "Why did you remember to come to my place?"

As he spoke, he looked at Li Xinni carefully and said with emotion: "It's been so long. My sister is still as charming as ever..."

"Sister is envious? If sister wants to..."

"That's it! That's it!"

Before Li Xinni finished speaking, Third Sister Li quickly waved her hands and said, "What's the point of living forever? It's better to entertain your grandchildren and enjoy the happiness of family."

"Too……"

Li Xinni nodded, looking at the children who were still looking at her curiously, and finally showed an embarrassed smile, and said to Sister Li: "I had enough time this time, but I forgot to bring gifts to the children..."

"Why should this be done between my sisters!"

Third Sister Li waved her hands, indicating that she didn't care.

After a moment, Li Xinni suddenly said: "Sister, Shimin... collapsed!"

Obviously, the Princess Pingyang Mansion had not received the news at this time. After all, Li Shimin had just passed away and Li Xinni had left the palace. Soon after arriving at the Princess Pingyang Mansion, the news from the palace should not have spread yet.

"What……"

After hearing these words, Sister Li's expression finally changed, and the smile disappeared from her face. A look of sadness appeared on her face. She was silent for a long time, and then she said leisurely:

"So, sister, you are reluctant to give up, so you come to me?"

Li Xinni didn't speak, just nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Third Sister Li also sighed and said: "Suddenly I remembered the time when you first came to Chang'an. At that time, I was busy conquering the world, and we didn't spend much time together after that..."

"However, the relationship between us sisters is still very close..."
