The fifth wife wants to escape marriage: marry the princess

Chapter 194 You Are Ah Jiu 2
"I gave you the peace talisman back then, and lied to my mother that it was missing. This is the second piece she asked me for, which is exactly the same as yours. Wushuang, you are Ah Jiu!" Xiao Xuanyu was very excited, it was the reunion after a long absence happy.

Wushuang kept shaking her head, "No, I'm not, I'm not Ah Jiu!"

After all, he didn't know how to face Xiao Xuanyu, so he fled back to Chunhua Palace.

When passing Liuli Palace again, she didn't have the courage to take a look and hurried past.

She didn't know what she was running away from, but she was not Ah Jiu, she didn't want to be Ah Jiu, no, no!
Xiao Xuanyu never thought that she would run away. She was the nine princesses that everyone was looking for, and the most beloved princess of the former emperor.

But fortunately, she came back again, and returned to her side.

Xiao Xuanyu stared blankly at her running away, his heart was suddenly hollowed out, he thought she became Ah Jiu, just his Xiao Xuanyu's Ah Jiu, but both Ah Jiu and Wushuang had to run away from him.

Wushuang fled back to Chunhua Palace, ordered all the maids to retreat, and closed the door of the bedroom alone.

She sat in front of the dressing table in a daze, but found a scroll of paintings on it. She stared at it for a long time, and finally opened it in a state of confusion.

However, when the picture scroll was opened, her heart suddenly stopped for a few beats.For some reason, the tears flowed down inexplicably.

There are three people in the painting, and Wushuang saw Concubine Lan at a glance.

Concubine Lan was so young at that time, but she looked like she was in her twenties, with a smile on her face, completely different from what Wu Shuang saw later.

The weather that day was extremely sunny, and the whole painting was filled with warm sunlight. Concubine Lan was sitting on a brocade bench in a purple palace dress, and beside her stood a young boy in a pale yellow brocade dress, with a jade belt and a plain waist. Dressed in a noble manner, he is obviously a little prince, with a smile as gentle as jade on his face.

Wushuang's heart twitched, she knew who it was.He also knew who the girl who was leaning in Lan Fei's arms beside him was.

The girl was wearing a pink thousand-layer dress, which looked extremely delicate and gorgeous. She was leaning in Lan Fei's arms, waiting to be painted in an unruly way, and her hands were playfully pulling the swing beside her.

Wushuang has seen the swing before, and Wushuang is also familiar with the scenery, which is the imperial garden.

The girl in the painting is only six or seven years old, round and round, with a pair of big watery eyes that are playful.She was holding the flower vines of the swing, and the little boy was standing beside her. Even though he was young, he was already exuding a heroic spirit.

Looking at this painting, all the scenes seem to be vivid in my mind, they are all so extravagant and beautiful.

Wushuang couldn't believe it, this was them when they were young and Concubine Lan back then.

She didn't want to believe that she was Ah Jiu, but the appearance of Princess Jiu in the painting was exactly the same as when she was a child.

The inscription is from the Painting Bureau, and the age of painting has to be pushed forward by more than ten years, and even the scroll is a little yellow.There is also a line of small characters next to it, to the effect that it is the seventh birthday painting of the ninth princess. The people in the painting are indeed the birth mother Concubine Lan and the fifth prince Xiao Xuanyu.

This is how they were together back then?

Everyone has a smile on their face, Xiao Xuanyu is so noble and handsome, and Concubine Lan is also smiling gently, Wushuang has never seen such a Concubine Lan, her eyes are full of smiles, she looks down at the Ninth Princess slightly , the affection is beyond words.

Concubine Lan is happy to have Ajiu, but Wushuang only sees Concubine Lan who lost Ajiu, and only sees the endless cold war between her and the emperor and their closeness.

As long as he closes his eyes, Wushuang can see Lan Fei's death without regret. She is such a beautiful woman, but she has been burdened by love all her life, living in pain, and regretting even her death.

Wushuang raised his head and looked at the woman in the mirror, his face was wet with tears, full of disappointment.What's the use if she doesn't admit that she is Ah Jiu?At this moment, when she looked at herself in the mirror, she realized that the expression on her brows and eyes was exactly the same as that of Concubine Lan.

I'm Ah Jiu?

She asked herself, her heart throbbing with pain.

She didn't want to be Ah Jiu, and she didn't want to face the fact that her biological mother died of regret.She is not Ah Jiu, not...

Wushuang lay on the dressing table, only to hear the scroll fall to the ground with a "squeak" sound. Everything that was once beautiful disappeared after she fell off the cliff that year.

Wushuang can no longer remember the events of her childhood. The past is too long, and the life in Yuzhou and the capital are too surprising. Living there for so many years, she can't recall the slightest memory of the capital. Forget about the capital completely.

She forgot, but she forgot what Xiao Xuanyu remembered deeply.

Wushuang was lying on the table slumped, and she had no strength left. She used to say that Xiao Xuanyu was hiding other people and Ah Jiu in her heart, and used this as an excuse to reject Xiao Xuanyu and hurt Xiao Xuanyu.Only now did I realize that I was wrong, that other person was herself, but she used that period of the past to repeatedly hurt Xiao Xuanyu.

What did she do?
Obviously she was in severe pain, but found that she hurt others more.

Is Xiao Xuanyu the brother in her mind?She always felt that he gave her the same feeling, but when she was really convinced that it was, she flinched.

She misses the relatives in her dreams so much, the elder brother in her dreams, however, when she finally finds her family, they are all gone, gone.

Concubine Lan was dead, her biological father had also died long ago, and the late emperor was no longer around. The meaning of her existence suddenly became insignificant.

Those who once deeply remembered her are gone.

Concubine Lan said that all her life was to wait for Ah Jiu, to wait for a miracle, but she still let her die with regret.

What Concubine Lan once said to Ah Jiu, and her grievances towards Ah Jiu, seemed to be directed at herself.And she stood in front of Concubine Lan alive, but she never gave Concubine Lan any comfort.

She didn't respond like a log, making Concubine Lan wither in front of her eyes like an orchid in deep winter.

Ah Jiu is Concubine Lan's knot, but now Concubine Lan has become Wushuang's knot.After all, it is still "tit for tat".She had caused Concubine Lan to suffer for so many years, and she could not pass away peacefully. Finally, God punished her!
Tears have dried up, and her heart is empty, but she just feels numb and at a loss.She didn't know why this happened, even if she was Ah Jiu, why did she come to this deep palace step by step?Is everything really predestined?

Wushuang just lay on his stomach, without any strength in his body, and heard the foreign maid whispered, "Your Majesty, the emperor is here."

Wushuang didn't want to see him, and when he saw him, he remembered that he was Ah Jiu, she remembered Concubine Lan, and remembered the regrets and mistakes one after another.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." the maid shouted, and Ruyi also knocked on the door, but there was still no response.

Xiao Xuanyu was very worried, but the door was locked from the inside, he called Wu Shuang a few times, but failed, so he hurriedly ordered someone to find the craftsman who opened the door.

However, as soon as the order was ordered, the door opened.

Wushuang stood at the door, the tears on her face were dry, she didn't dare to look up at Xiao Xuanyu, she turned around when she opened the door, "Close the door."

Xiao Xuanyu entered the room, the palace door was closed again, the room was a bit dark, the curtains were drawn, and the light could not come in.

The picture scroll fell on the ground, Xiao Xuanyu glanced at it, and the past was vivid in his mind, "Back then, my father was afraid that Concubine Lan would be sad, so no one was allowed to mention Ah Jiu, and no picture scroll of her was allowed to be kept in the palace. Woke up, only hoping that one day Ah Jiu will come back and return the painting to her."

Said, Xiao Xuanyu went to pick up the scroll, rolled it up, turned to Wushuang and said, "Now it returns to the original owner."

But Wushuang ignored it, and walked into the hall, walking, as if the strength in his body had been drained, his feet suddenly went limp, and he fell to the ground.

With a very loud "pa", Xiao Xuanyu rushed over and helped Wushuang up. She leaned in his arms as if she had no soul, without saying a word.

Xiao Xuanyu never thought that if she told Wu Shuang the truth, she would react like this.

Wushuang thought that she could cry aloud when she was in pain from the fall, and that she could fall asleep when she was tired from crying.When you wake up, act like nothing happened.

However, she couldn't cry because of the pain.

"Ajiu, Ahjiu..." Xiao Xuanyu looked at her nervously, "Where is the pain from the fall, I will announce the imperial physician immediately."

Wushuang shook his head, "Don't call me Ah Jiu."

Xiao Xuanyu was startled, only to hear Wushuang say, "Ah Jiu is dead, I am Wushuang."

"No, she's not dead, she's by my side." Xiao Xuanyu hugged her tightly, and Wushuang leaned wearily in his arms, her thoughts were all stagnant, and she heard him blame herself that if it wasn't for him, she wouldn't have used it. Living among the people has suffered so much.

Wushuang never replied, how did she tell Xiao Xuanyu that she didn't feel hardship at all when she was in the folk, on the contrary, it was in this palace that her real suffering began.

Her mind is full of bits and pieces of Concubine Lan. She used to be Concubine Lan's court lady, and she feels very happy to live by her side, happy to be pampered by such a mother.

She was also deeply envious of Ah Jiu, loved and cared by Concubine Lan, and loved and cared by Xiao Xuanyu.

However, now, when she became Concubine Lan's daughter, but she couldn't give him even the slightest bit of comfort, she regretted that she didn't find comfort from her relatives, and only endless regrets remained.

The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop, the child wants to be nurtured but the parent is not there.

Why let her know this fact when she feels happy to be a mother?Why not earlier?Long before Concubine Lan passed away, maybe in that case, Concubine Lan would not regret, nor would she suffer.

She felt that she was so unfilial, standing next to Concubine Lan, but seeing her in such pain.

She was so sad that she didn't enjoy a moment of family happiness with Concubine Lan.It was too late to understand everything, too late, if she hadn't deliberately concealed the scars, wouldn't it have caused today's regret?
The more she thought about it, the more sad she felt. Xiao Xuanyu kept hugging her. In the deep winter, she felt extremely cold, but because of his presence, she felt warm.

He said that he would always be by her side in the future.

He comforted her, as if he knew all her thoughts, and explained that he would take her to pay homage to Concubine Lan tomorrow, and Wu Shuang's uncomfortable heart eased a little.

It was cold on the ground, Xiao Xuanyu picked Wushuang up and put him on the bed.

"If you don't like Ah Jiu, it doesn't matter if you don't want me to mention it again. In the future, you will still be Wushuang, and I will still be my concubine, no, queen." He said softly, sitting by the bed, looking at Wushuang's pale face, "I really don't need to pass it on." Are you calling the imperial physician? I see that your face is so pale."

Wushuang shook his head, and his mood calmed down a lot. Xiao Xuanyu was right, knowing who he is is a happy thing, and it shouldn't be sad.

Although, her heart was still more sad than happy.

"Your Majesty, don't bring up the matter of being a queen in the future. I don't want to be a queen, not at all." Wu Shuang refused repeatedly, and Xiao Xuanyu could only compromise.

Although he wanted to go against everyone and set up Wushuang as the queen, he couldn't go against the wishes of the client after all, Wushuang begged to be unwilling, so what if he persisted alone?

If you don't stand, you don't stand, she will always be by his side, and it's the same.

Wushuang felt very tired, the child was taken out by the nanny, she was lying on the bed, looking at Xiao Xuanyu's concerned face, her head hurt so much, and she felt dizzy.

Both parties did not speak, Xiao Xuanyu's mood was a little complicated, "I went to verify your identity this time, and I also found some things..."

Wushuang looked at him slightly sideways, seeing that he was hesitant to speak but stopped knowing what was going on, but she was not interested in anything at the moment, so she asked hesitantly, "It has something to do with me?"

Her expression was so sad, although this was an excellent opportunity for her to completely give up on that person, but he didn't want to do it.If she is sad, he will be unhappy too, why bother to torture her and himself.

Xiao Xuanyu finally shook his head, "No, go to sleep..."

Wushuang looked out the window, only to realize that it was dark at some point.

"Your Majesty, go back to the palace to rest!" Wushuang said softly, and he brushed the messy hair on her forehead, "I know, I will leave when you fall asleep."

Wushuang refused, so she could only close her eyes and go to sleep earlier.However, he couldn't sleep no matter what, and when he closed his eyes, he would think of Concubine Lan, his heart was chaotic and sore, he couldn't sleep, and felt inexplicably scared.

Xiao Xuanyu saw that she kept frowning her eyebrows tightly, but never opened her eyes, and gently held her hand.He wanted to tell her that he had gone through all this with her, this complicated mood together.

As if it were an invisible force, he held her hand, making Wushuang gradually calm down, she opened her eyes slightly, he was still by his side, he smiled at her, for a moment, everything lost its spirit, nothing could compare His smile is pure and warm.
