Jiaochu

Chapter 499 Scheming
On the way back, Ye Lingxi stopped by the koi pond. The clear water rippled slightly in the dusk. The weather had turned cold, and the fat koi in the pond were hiding under the water. She asked He He to go back and get some fish food. He He was not sure about leaving her here alone, so Ye Lingxi told her to go back quickly.

Without Concubine Xiao in the palace, she would not be afraid even if she was feeding the fish alone at night.

After He He left, a black shadow dived up from the bottom of the water, holding a bead between its two fins, and swam up just by swinging its tail. Ye Lingxi stretched out a hand into the water and caught the bead. Ying dived back into the water again. She suddenly had a premonition that this was the last time she would see the Black Overlord. Her eyes couldn't help but feel sore and a little watery.

After blinking, she muttered to herself, "Don't let anyone catch you and stew it into fish soup. Don't bite the hooks, and don't get into the fishing nets. If you can't stay out any longer, come back." You are so domineering, you will definitely not let other fish bully you..."

When Hehe hurried back with the fish food, he met Ye Lingxi halfway. She said that she would not feed them today and would go another day.

After returning to Changxin Palace, Ye Lingxi took out the beads and looked at the candlelight. The icy blue luster inside was changing unpredictably, attracting her closer and closer. She felt that her eyes were blurred, and the icy blue luster turned out to be... Entering her eyes, an icy cold breath enveloped her eyes. After this feeling disappeared, she opened her eyes again and found that the beads on her hands were gone, leaving only a small puddle of water on the table, which was colorless and transparent. .

She sat on the couch and froze for a few seconds, then got up and ran to the dressing table to see if there was any change in her eyes. When her eyes came into contact with the bronze mirror, she suddenly remembered that she couldn't look in the mirror at night. If she saw the third person again, If she doesn't, her life will really be short.

She resisted the urge to look in the mirror and asked someone to bring a basin of water. She used the water as a mirror and looked at her eyes. Fortunately, there was no change. The next moment she realized something was wrong and waved her hand to sweep away the changes. The chaotic water surface made me feel angry again after I calmed down. Now not only could I not look in the mirror, I could not even see the reflection on the water surface.

Hehe and Lingdang came over and asked what was wrong. Ye Lingxi said she was sleepy, and they helped her to bed.

As soon as he closed his eyes, Ye Lingxi felt a wave of sleepiness coming over him, and his consciousness quickly fell into a dream.

The blue sea, the ethereal singing, the beautiful girl sitting on the rocks playing the flute, the beautiful music attracts fish and seabirds, the two who are natural enemies coexist peacefully in the music...

Then there was a raging fire, and the fire engulfed everything. The girl was taken away and locked in a house to learn to dance day after day. When her dance was perfect without a single flaw, at a palace banquet, She was presented to King Xia.

King Xia doted on her very much. He gave her the best Fengqi Palace and built a Crystal Palace for her. She received three thousand favors on her, but she was not happy at all, like a canary trapped in a cage. , always eager to fly out of the cage.

Until she met the young man dressed in white, and the first time she saw him, she knew that he understood her. In this huge cage, only he could see the sadness and loneliness hidden in her eyes.

He played the piano to her through the palace walls, which made her feel that the moon in the palace didn't look so cold anymore.

On a snowy day, only she and he went out to enjoy the plum blossoms. The bright red plum blossoms and the white snow enveloped the two of them. It seemed that there were only two people left in the world to keep each other warm, and there was no one else.

……

Rumors reached the ears of King Xia and she was placed under house arrest.

The moonlight was cool, and she played the flute to the moon.

They were reported again, saying that she was unrepentant and used flute music to convey feelings in an attempt to trick the prince into rescuing her. The two fled away, and King Xia was furious and gave her death.

The poison entered her throat, and she was finally relieved. Unfortunately, she could never see him again. She closed her eyes with regret, and a teardrop slipped from the corner of her eye, hanging on her temples.

There was lightning and thunder, and heavy rain poured down. The water lilies in the water tank bloomed extraordinarily delicately, as if they were dyed red with blood. The raindrops rolled down like teardrops, falling down the beautiful face into the cold water and disappearing.

A man came holding an umbrella. His white clothes were flawless, but the corners of his clothes were wet from the rain and stained with a little mud.

He opened the door, walked to her, reached out and gently wiped away the tears hanging on her temples, hugged her gently, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I will take you away." He picked her up. She walked into the heavy rain, dressed in white and disappeared into the torrential rain, disappearing.

When the heavy rain stopped, the thunder and lightning stopped, and the dawn illuminated the earth, only then did the palace people dare to collect the body, only to find that Concubine Chen had disappeared. The Crystal Palace sank overnight, and the water lilies in the tank withered overnight.

Then there were rumors that Concubine Chen was a demon and was destroyed by lightning last night.

Fengqi Palace was sealed, and various demon-suppressing charms were posted on the door.

The water tank in the yard is broken
The glazed gold tiles on the roof were broken
King Xia went crazy and set fire to the palace. His crazy laughter was swallowed up in the rolling waves of fire...

The fire was half burned, it started to rain, and thick smoke rose straight into the sky, dissipating together with the decaying dynasty in the dawn of dawn...

Only Fengqi Palace was safe and sound, the yard was still deserted, and the glazed gold tiles on the roof still had a few holes.

Ye Lingxi stood among the desolate weeds in the courtyard and asked, "Who are you?" A man walked out of the deserted Wutong Hall, dressed in white, gentle and elegant, and as cold as an immortal.

She looked at the other person, tried her best to stay calm, and asked, "Are you Ziyuan, the crown prince of Xia Dynasty?" He walked towards her, and she took two steps back, raised her hand to make a stop gesture, and told him not to come closer. Come here, "Just stand there and talk." He stopped, his voice was gentle and calm, making people feel that he is trustworthy and his words are reliable, "If you have anything to ask, just ask."

There were too many questions she wanted to ask, so she organized her thoughts and asked the first question, "Are you the crown prince of the Xia Dynasty?"

He nodded.

"So you're still alive?"

"Gong Ziyu is dead. Even if he is alive, he is no longer the prince."

That means she is still alive, she said to herself, and asked the third question, "What did you mean when you said you would come to pick me up before? Am I the Ashue?"

He didn't speak, but his silence gave her the answer. His clear and gentle eyes looked at her, like the warm and cool moonlight, with a touch of sadness. She was annoyed by the tepid gaze and asked in a sharp tone, "You brought me back to life. You arranged everything, right?" He sighed softly, "Axue, don't hate me. Me." When she heard the name A Xue, she immediately screamed, "I'm not A Xue! No!" Her emotions became extremely emotional, and the blue marks on her forehead were looming, and she held her head in pain. He kept repeating that she wasn't, and he came over to comfort her, but she pushed him away violently. She yelled at him to get away. He sighed softly, put his hand on her forehead, and she fell asleep.

……

When she opened her eyes, it was already dawn. She felt a little cold in the corner of her eyes. She raised her hand and touched it, as if she was crying. Thinking of that white clothes, a ball of anger arose in her heart, and she wanted to punch and kick him. After she calmed down, she began to analyze the problem rationally. Concubine Chen, Crown Prince of Xia Dynasty, Marquis of Jinyi, and King of Xia, these four people were going around and around in her mind. With a flash of inspiration, she suddenly Shocked, I feel that the Xia Dynasty Crown Prince's scheming is really unfathomable.

Concubine Chen was sentenced to death for bewitching the prince, and she was brought into the palace by Marquis Jinyi. Naturally, the King of Xia was alienated from Jinyihou. Later, Jinyihou was summoned into the palace by the King of Xia and killed. It was probably the prince who was plotting it secretly and did not hesitate to use himself as bait to seduce him. Concubine Chen, no wonder she said don’t hate him. Poor Concubine Chen didn’t know that she was being used by her beloved until she died.

Thinking of this, she felt a sigh in her heart, and suddenly an inexplicable sadness swept over her. Her heart hurt inexplicably, and a name kept repeating in her mind, Ziyuan, Ziyuan... The sound became louder and louder, as if to She was drowning, "Shut up!" She pinched herself hard, fighting fire with fire, and finally silenced the voice.

Hehe and Lingdang were about to help her get up when they heard a cry to shut up. They were both surprised. Lingdang tentatively called her princess. Ye Lingxi agreed, opened the curtain and looked as usual, and asked if the weather was good outside. Hehe Said the weather was good, it was a sunny day.

The haze in her heart dissipated slightly.
