Chapter 34 Nightmare
Chapter 34 Nightmare
Since that day, the Yanyun Building has been guarded by guards, regardless of day or night.Mingzhu wanted to visit inside several times, but was stopped by the guards.For several consecutive nights, Mingzhu had nightmares again and again, as if she was being targeted by something dirty.There was always a pair of vicious eyes watching her in the dream, so she had no choice but to run away desperately.
But no matter how she escaped, she just couldn't escape that terrifying gaze.
When she woke up in the morning, Mingzhu felt very tired, not only because she didn't sleep well, but also because of heart palpitations.
"Master, are you having nightmares again?" Xia'er asked softly as she brought some water for washing up.
Mingzhu sighed slightly, said "En", and didn't want to recall any more.
After washing and combing, I used some snacks.She drank two mouthfuls of a bowl of millet porridge but she lost her appetite. Recently, her appetite has become worse and worse.Mingzhu put down the spoon and shook her head, "Xia'er, take it away. I don't want to eat."
"Master? You have eaten too little recently, and your body is just right. Eat more." Xia'er reminded.
Mingzhu waved her hand, she opened her mouth to say something, but a little servant girl rushed into the room and said back, "Ma'am, Mr. Gongsun is here."
"Ask him to come in." Mingzhu said.
The little servant girl responded and immediately turned around to pass the message.Xia'er also hastily collected some snacks and left.Mingzhu vaguely heard Xia'er calling "Gongsun Gongzi", and then saw Gongsun Qingming flashing leisurely in her sight.He seems to be extremely fond of white, and he always arrives in white clothes, slowly shaking a jade fan in his hand.
Gongsun Qingming walked in with his hands behind his back, walked towards Mingzhu, and said as he walked, "You didn't eat a bite of the candied haws I bought for you last time. If you still don't eat this one today, then I will turn my face against you. "He smiled, and threw out his hands behind his back. In his hands were two bunches of brightly colored candied haws.
When Mingzhu saw the candied haws, she was pleasantly surprised, "Thank you, Mr. Gongsun, I will definitely finish eating this time." After she finished speaking, she quickly reached out to pick it up.But he deliberately moved his hand aside to prevent her from reaching it.Mingzhu raised her eyebrows and looked at him suspiciously.
"Hey! I started calling my son so unfamiliar again, which makes me very sad." Gongsun Qingming's tone was pitiful, but his expression was unrestrained and self-satisfied.
Mingzhu snatched the candied haws from his hand, her dark eyes turned cleverly, "Since this is the case, then I won't call you that anymore. However, in the future, don't blame me for not being polite. Gong, Sun, Qing, Ming! "She called his name, reading every single word.
"Are you so pedantic?" Gongsun Qingming flicked his robe and sat down.
Mingzhu put a bunch of candied haws on the plate, and ate another bunch of candied haws.Hawthorn was sweet and sour, and she couldn't help frowning.Gongsun Qingming looked at her with great interest, his eyes were full of tenderness, even he himself had never noticed the tenderness.Suddenly, he said in a deep voice, "I'm here this time to say goodbye to you."
"Farewell?" Mingzhu was taken aback, her mouth was still full of candied haws, and she said vaguely, "Gongsun Qingming, where are you going?"
"I have something to do, so I have to go. Then New Year's Eve is approaching, so it is not appropriate to stay in the palace." Gongsun Qingming replied softly.
Mingzhu heard what he said, grabbed the candied haws, and muttered to count the days, "One, two, three...six..." After breaking her fingers, she suddenly realized, "That's right, there are only six days left. Here we are. Are you going home? Hey? Where is your home? Can you make it back in time?"
"Why can't we make it in time? There is no home everywhere, and there is home everywhere." Gongsun Qingming pointed.
Homeless?Everywhere is home?Does he have no home?What about his family?Could it be... Could it be that he was alone?The smile on her face froze at the corner of her mouth, Mingzhu hesitated to speak.After holding back for a while, I couldn't help but said, "It's better to stay in the palace for the new year, anyway, the palace is so big, there are not many people..."
"One less person is a lot." Gongsun Qingming took the words naturally and smiled happily.
Mingzhu hastily put down the candied haws, and hastily explained, "That's not what I meant, don't get me wrong..."
"It's Chinese New Year, and I want to give you a gift. I don't know what you want?" Gongsun Qingming changed the subject, obviously not wanting to continue the discussion.
Even though she was still full of confusion, Mingzhu tactfully kept her mouth shut, for fear of touching other people's wounds.Looking at Gongsun Qingming in front of him, he suddenly felt a sense of intimacy.After thinking for a while, those terrifying bloodshot eyes flashed again in her mind, and she blurted out, "You do me a favor."
"What?" Seeing her expression change slightly, Gongsun Qingming asked with raised eyebrows.
※※※
The sun is shining and the weather is getting warmer.In the high wall, towering trees can be seen when you look up, and the rich fragrance of plum blossoms is tangy.The big wall in the backyard with no one is facing a rockery.In the stone cave of the rockery, two figures groped forward one after the other.The person who leads the way is Mingzhu, and the person who follows behind is Gongsun Qingming.
"What are you doing here?" Gongsun Qingming asked curiously.
Mingzhu turned her head and hissed, and made a silent gesture, "Hush your voice! Don't let anyone hear you!"
"Come, here, here, what, what..." Gongsun Qingming immediately lowered his voice cooperatively, the rough male voice was a little funny.
The light ahead is getting closer and closer, and the air is getting fresher.Mingzhu took a big step and finally ran out of the dark and damp cave.She turned to look at Gongsun Qingming, looked around, and whispered, "You know how to do light work, don't you? Take me to fly in! I want to go in here!"
"What are you doing here?" Gongsun Qingming was very confused.
"Hurry up, stop talking nonsense, and fly me in quickly." Mingzhu grabbed his wrist and entangled him desperately.
Gongsun Qingming lost his mind, stretched out his long arms and wrapped them around her waist.With one step on the ground, the air was transported to the dantian, and with one step, he stepped on the high wall and flew into the courtyard.Mingzhu only felt dizzy for a while, but it was very exciting.When she came back to her senses, she had already landed on the ground, safe and sound.
"Yanyun Tower? What are you doing here?" Gongsun Qingming looked around and asked again.
Mingzhu said softly, "I'm here to meet someone."
"Meet someone? Mrs. Gu?" Gongsun Qingming asked, "Isn't she crazy?"
Mingzhu immediately made a "cross" gesture with both hands, signaling him not to continue talking.She glanced at him, and walked cautiously towards the boudoir.Gongsun Qingming followed closely behind, and said in a low voice, "I heard that the prince sent guards to guard the Yanyun Tower, and no one is allowed to enter. If you do this, you won't be afraid that the prince will find out and punish you?"
"Punishment? Anyway, I'm used to it." Mingzhu said indifferently, walking more hastily.
In the blink of an eye, the two turned to the corridor, and the mournful weeping sounded faintly again.
Gongsun Qingming only felt a sudden chill, and there seemed to be an inexplicable chill in front of him, but it was very strange.He stopped in his tracks, and reached out to grab the pearl that was rushing forward.Mingzhu turned her head annoyed, Gongsun Qingming warned, "Don't go, it's too cloudy here, it will make people sick."
"Where is the Yin Qi! Are you scaring me?" Mingzhu frowned.
"I won't lie to you." Gongsun Qingming's expression of teasing was reversed, and his handsome face was calm and serious.Seeing him like this, Mingzhu was startled.Holding Mingzhu's hand, he returned to the way he came, and said as he walked, "You have just recovered, it's best not to go to those dirty places, lest you get sick again."
"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
"Don't come to me, woo woo woo—"
The sound of weeping echoed again, and Gu Ruoer's frightened face suddenly jumped out in front of her eyes.Mingzhu's heart was empty, she turned her head from time to time, and hurriedly slapped Gongsun Qingming's hand again.But her strength was too weak, and she couldn't get rid of his restraint at all.Looking at his tall back, he had to grit his teeth and shout, "Gongsun Qingming! Let me go! Let go!"
"Hush!" Gongsun Qingming covered her mouth to keep her from making noise, "Do you want to disturb the guards?"
"..." Mingzhu's eyes widened, and she stopped speaking helplessly.
Only then did Gongsun Qingming let go of his hand, and asked abruptly in a low voice, "Do you believe there are ghosts in this world?"
"You..." Mingzhu swallowed, and timidly shook her head, "I, I don't believe it."
Gongsun Qing stared at her with bright black eyes, raised a smile, and said in a deep voice, "Since the prince doesn't allow people to come in, he must have his reasons. Don't trespass without permission, do you hear me?"
"I didn't hear that! I want to see Gu Ruo'er!" Mingzhu retorted stubbornly.
"If you don't hear it, you have to hear it!" Gongsun Qingming finished speaking, and touched her acupuncture points.Mingzhu was stunned in place, unable to move or speak, so she could only stare at him.He picked her up by the waist and ran out of the corridor quickly.I saw a white figure stepping on the high wall and jumping out.
※※※
After tossing in vain, Mingzhu angrily walked back to Yin'an Hall.A foot away from her, Gongsun Qingming followed calmly.Seeing her awkward look, he felt a little amused, and ran after her.Mingzhu ignored him, but Gongsun Qingming said, "What? Are you angry?"
"You are a coward." Mingzhu scolded.
"Yes, yes, I am a coward." Gongsun Qingming replied agreeingly.
The two were arguing, and two people walked slowly in front of them.Mingzhu looked up and saw Feng Zhanxiu walking towards Lizheng with his bodyguards.She stopped abruptly, glanced at Gongsun Qingming, and whispered, "If you dare to tell the truth, I will never talk to you again."
"Aren't you afraid of punishment?" Gongsun Qingming met Feng Zhanxiu's scrutinizing gaze without looking sideways.
Mingzhu pursed her lips and said nothing, she was just afraid that she would not have a chance to sneak in again.
"Why are you two together?" Feng Zhanxiu approached the two of them, squinted his eyes in displeasure, and asked in a deep voice.
"Let's go for a walk."
"Just met."
At the same time, the two responded with their own words.
Why are you so unlucky!If I knew she would have stopped talking!Mingzhu twisted her eyebrows, and lowered her head in misery.
Gongsun Qingming shook the jade fan lightly, and immediately smoothed things over, "My lord, we just met, and then we will take a walk together."
"Really." Feng Zhanxiu's tone was flat, and he couldn't tell whether he believed it or not.
Mingzhu nodded hurriedly.
"It's getting late, you should go." Feng Zhanxiu said these words to Gongsun Qingming, but his eyes were fixed on that drooping little head.
"Then I will take my leave, my lord cherishes it." Gongsun Qingming held his fan in both hands and said with a smile.
Mingzhu looked up at him, "Leave now? In such a hurry?"
"Yes! I'm leaving." Gongsun Qingming also looked back at her, with a light smile on his face, "Businessmen don't trade at a loss, so I gave you a gift just now, next time you have to give me back one too. .I’ll remember it below. Farewell, farewell.” He turned around lightly, and walked in a chic white dress.
Mingzhu was dumbfounded immediately, isn't he, this person is real!Obviously he was going to give her a gift!Want to pay it back now?
Mingzhu didn't turn her head until Gongsun Qingming's figure walked away.Turning around, facing the charming Junrong of Shangfeng Zhanxiu, he instinctively lowered his head again.These days, he would come to Yin'an Hall every day, but he never stayed overnight.That's fine, if he wants to stay overnight by force, she doesn't know what to do!
What are you going to say now?Flash people directly!
Mingzhu supported her body and said softly, "My lord, I'm going back to Yin'an Hall."
Feng Zhanxiu's eyes turned deep, his displeasure swelled for no reason, he suddenly stretched out his hand towards Mingzhu, grabbed her to his side, and hugged her.Mingzhu exhaled softly, and was already in his arms in the blink of an eye.She tried to struggle, but was stopped by his eyes, and she was shocked silently.
"You have been to Yanyun Building." He shouted.
"I……"
"My king told you not to go, but you decided to go. Are you trying to challenge my patience?" Feng Zhanxiu asked coldly.
Mingzhu looked at him proudly, and retorted, "Yes! I have been to the Yanyun Tower! So what? Why did the prince lock her in and not let anyone see her?"
"If you go again, this king will kill her, and it will be settled once and for all." He put down his harsh words, feeling extremely gloomy.
Mingzhu was taken aback by the haze in his eyes, she asked in confusion, "I just went to see her, why are you so disgusted? She also spent time with you before, are you so cruel?"
"Oh!" Feng Zhanxiu chuckled, but asked in the same confusion, "She hurt you, beat you, scolded you for harming you, but you were so naive and ridiculous! You even pitied her and pleaded for her, Why are you so compassionate? Don't you hate? Seeing her go crazy, you should be happy!"
Mingzhu pushed him away forcefully, "Yes! That's right! I'm naive and ridiculously stupid! She hurt me and framed me, I really should hate her. Now that she has ended up like this, I should be even more happy.
"As the prince said, she deserves what she deserves."
Her voice trembled a little, "But I'm not happy at all."
"My lord, don't forget, I will be hurt by her, beaten and framed by her, all because of you, my lord! If my lord hadn't indulged her and let her go, would she have done this? Everything, if you really want to ask, find out I understand that the culprit is none other than you, the prince!"
"After leaving the capital and arriving at the palace, I realized that I am no longer a princess! I have never regarded myself as a princess!"
"I will never forget, it was you who deposed me, and you gave me to Gu Ruo'er as a servant girl!"
"But you, my lord, are one thing today, and you will be another thing tomorrow. You turn your back on it, believe it if you believe it, and don't believe it if you don't believe it. Human life is in your eyes, and the power of life and death is in your hands. If you are happy, that person will Can live, you are not happy, that person can't even die!"
"Do you think it's fun? Are you watching a play?"
"I'm really curious."
"Feng Zhanxiu, you can't be alone, wearing a mask, are you tired?"
At the end, the angry female voice turned out to be murmured indistinctly, drifting melodiously in the wind, as if there was an echo hovering.
Zhongli had been standing not far behind Feng Zhanxiu, and he was stunned to hear these words.No one has ever dared to accuse the prince like this, let alone point out the prince.Only this princess, only her.When everyone came back to their senses, Feng Zhanxiu straightened his back, and there was a burst of wild air around his body, which gradually condensed.
Zhongli secretly yelled "It's not good," and wanted to step forward, but he heard Feng Zhanxiu's deep laughter.
He laughed abruptly, making Mingzhu stunned.He, he, what is he laughing at?
Feng Zhanxiu narrowed his eagle eyes, his tall body swayed, and took a step towards her.Mingzhu clenched her fists tightly, not allowing herself to back down at this moment.If she backs off, it means that she is afraid of him and she has surrendered.She raised her head stubbornly, without any dodge, and looked at him so calmly.
For a while, neither of them spoke.
The fragrance of plum blossoms is strong, as if it can confuse people's minds.
Feng Zhanxiu suddenly stretched his brows, his expression was a bit hollow, the arrogant aura subsided, but it was another kind of terrifying loneliness.The deep eyes gathered light, and locked her figure in the pupils. He moved his lips, and said in a deep voice, "You can't be alone, wearing a mask, are you tired?"
There was an unknown trance in that handsome face that was close at hand, and Mingzhu looked at him stupidly.
Feng Zhanxiu drew the corners of his lips, suddenly stretched out his hand, and hugged her into his arms with strong arms.His movements may seem rough, but they are extremely gentle.Mingzhu didn't expect him to make such a move, and his unique masculine aura instantly surrounded her.His big palm pressed the back of her head, pressing her to his chest.
"Let go of me, Feng Zhanxiu, let me go..." Mingzhu shouted in fear, rejecting his embrace.
"Don't move." He lowered his head and whispered in her ear.
Mingzhu seemed to be hypnotized, and she didn't dare to move anymore.Why, why does his embrace make her feel boundless loneliness and nothingness.
Lost for a moment, I heard him say, "Are you caring about me now?"
Such a light sentence is like a leaf floating into the heart lake of a pearl.Mingzhu's eyes widened in astonishment, her lips parted slightly, and she was bored for a while, not knowing what to say.For the first time, since she met him now, he didn't call himself "the king" for the first time, but used the word "I".
"You said that this king has no one's heart, so are you willing to give your heart to this king?" Feng Zhanxiu murmured, his warm lips pressed against her skin, like a lover's caress.His tone was very frivolous, and he smiled lowly.
Mingzhu heard his banter and was startled, "Let me go!"
Feng Zhanxiu loosened the strength of his hands at the right time, and let her retreat from his arms, "Why? Don't you want to? Do you know how many women in the Daxing Dynasty are willing!"
"I don't care about you! I don't care about you! Even if women in the Daxing Dynasty are willing to give their hearts to you, I won't! Even if you die tomorrow, I will never shed a tear. And I still Laugh, laugh at you, and you will finally be rewarded with evil, laugh at you being taken away by the King of Hades!" Mingzhu swore angrily.
"Hehe, women love to tell lies, and this king knows that." He responded lightly, and the amber eyes flashed brightly, fleeting.
"Feng Zhanxiu, why are you laughing!" Mingzhu felt that she was being teased by him, and she was suddenly depressed.His smiling handsome face was full of sarcasm in her eyes, but she had nothing to do with him, she couldn't beat him, and he couldn't speak well.In a word, she is bad, absolutely bad.
Mingzhu gritted her teeth and stepped forward, raised her leg and kicked him.But he didn't move at all, on the contrary, his feet hurt, "You..."
"Does it hurt from kicking? Get a doctor to look at it for you?" Feng Zhanxiu said pitifully, as if to hug her.
Mingzhu took a few big steps back cleverly, avoiding his claws, "Go to hell!" After she finished speaking, she turned around and ran back to Yin'an Hall.
"After the New Year's Eve, I will take you back to the capital." Feng Zhanxiu's deep male voice came from behind, and Mingzhu stopped in shock.But he also turned around and walked in another direction.
Mingzhu never expected that he would take her back on his own initiative...
Six days later, New Year's Eve.
There was an atmosphere of joy in the city, and every household hung up red lanterns to celebrate the new year.From the morning, the sound of firecrackers sounded all over the sky, and the city was full of bustling and lively scenes.There was a lot of voices, and the city residents put on beautiful new clothes, replenished their last New Year's goods, and were busy with the New Year's Eve dinner at night.
Mingzhu also gets up very early, these days, she gets up very early every day.It's not because of the New Year, I feel excited and excited.It's just that the nightmares continued, and she couldn't sleep peacefully.And what Feng Zhanxiu said that day still echoed in his ears.After talking about New Year's Eve, he took her back to the capital.
But why, did he want to take her back?
Isn't he afraid that when he returns to the capital, he will join the army and sue his father?
Mingzhu couldn't figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking about it.As the saying goes, when a car reaches the mountain, there must be a road, and when a boat reaches the bridge, it is naturally straight.Xia'er helped her wash and dress, and Mingzhu just opened her mouth and stretched out her hands, and she was happy and at ease.After she finished dressing, Mingzhu looked at herself in the bronze mirror, dumbfounded.
This dress... is too gorgeous, right?
It was a splendid peach red dress embroidered with peonies, and the edges were exquisitely inlaid with gold silk borders, exuding grace and nobility.Peony is both delicate and gorgeous, usually she just feels too arrogant, but the gorgeous dress in front of her now does not look too expensive, it has its own charm and incomparable solemn beauty.The scarf is made of high-quality fox fur, which fits snugly around the neck, making it look cute and exquisite.
Xia'er caressed the fox fur and said in admiration, "Master, this dress was specially sent by the prince. It's really beautiful."
"The prince ordered someone to send it?" Mingzhu was stunned.
Xia'er nodded, and just about to speak, a deep male voice sounded from behind, "It's the king!"
"My lord, all blessings!" Xia'er hurriedly helped her up and greeted her.
Mingzhu turned her head and looked, only to see Feng Zhanxiu wearing a two-color brocade suit with a hundred butterflies and a red satin gown with a bluestone color on the outside. Blue-faced velvet court boots.Maybe it's because of this gorgeous dress, the whole person looks a little more gentle.
Only in those eagle eyes, the hidden sharpness faintly emerges.
Feng Zhanxiu looked straight at Mingzhu, and said casually, "Back off."
"Yes!" Xia Er stepped back in response.
After Xia'er left, Mingzhu stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say.She hesitated in her heart and never spoke.However, Feng Zhanxiu took a step forward and looked her up and down leisurely. His gaze was very bold, without any shyness, as if she had no clothes on.
"You...what are you looking at." Mingzhu blurted out Sunrise intuitively.
Feng Zhanxiu smiled, "You look very beautiful today." Mingzhu was suffocated by his sudden praise, and she tightly clutched her clothes with her small hands and pursed her lips in silence.He took another step forward and walked slowly in front of her.For some reason, under his gaze, she felt a little palpitated, her face was slightly reddish from the domineering masculine aura.
He stopped, looked at her condescendingly, and said quietly, "Sure enough, people depend on clothes and Buddha depends on gold."
This man really can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth!Still so vicious!Mingzhu glared at him angrily.
"Do you like it?" Feng Zhanxiu raised his hand, touched her soft | tender skin with his fingertips, and scraped gently.
There seemed to be scorching heat from his fingertips, and it passed to her. Mingzhu pursed her mouth, and said, "This dress should be very expensive, the prince is really generous."
"Hehe." Feng Zhanxiu smiled comfortably, as if he had expected her to react like this.
"Why are you laughing!" Mingzhu was annoyed.
Feng Zhanxiu grabbed her little hand and held it tightly.He turned around and pulled her out of the room.Mingzhu was dragged by him like this, so she had to take small steps to keep up.She shook her hand, trying to get rid of him, but he held it tightly, not allowing her to escape.Looking at his tall back, Mingzhu asked angrily, "My lord, where are you taking me!"
"Appreciate the flowers." A deep male voice floated from the front, and said the two words leisurely.
Appreciation, appreciation of flowers?
※※※
Wangfu East Garden.
Feng Zhanxiu hurriedly dragged Mingzhu all the way, but Mingzhu made a lot of noise, but he ignored her.When he ran into the East Garden, he stopped and turned to face her.But the hand that was holding her was still not loosened.Mingzhu panted, and said intermittently, "What are you doing...you...bringing me here..."
"Hush!" Feng Zhanxiu stretched out his hand to touch her lips, and asked in a deep voice, "Is it pretty?"
His tall and straight body moved to the side, and Mingzhu saw a pink world, but there were streaks of yellow in her eyes, which surprised her endlessly.The plum trees are in full bloom, and this is the most romantic season. The pink petals of the trees are full of fragrance, which is refreshing with the wind.
The branches of the plum tree are covered with yellow paper.
The pink of the plum blossom and the yellow of the paper seem to be the only two colors in this world.
Mingzhu looked at the yellow note and murmured, "Are you crazy? On such a festive day of the Chinese New Year, you actually hang a yellow note?"
"What? Don't you think it's pretty?" Feng Zhanxiu asked casually.
Mingzhu turned her head and looked sideways, his dazed handsome face was reflected in her eyes, "Don't you know that the yellow paper is used to commemorate the dead?"
"Oh? I just think it's beautiful." Feng Zhanxiu didn't think so, neither surprised nor surprised.He walked towards the plum grove, and under the sunlight, his tall back was rendered with a thousand kinds of glazed luster.His steps are light, and the tassels and long tassels are blown by the wind, flying scattered in the wind.
Reminiscent of heaven and man, beyond the mundane, can not be described in words.
Driven by curiosity and confused by the yellow paper strips all over the garden, Mingzhu couldn't help asking, "My lord, who are you paying homage to?"
"You want to know?" Feng Zhanxiu turned his head and glanced at her.
Mingzhu suddenly felt an inexplicable fear, but she still nodded her head.
Feng Zhanxiu smiled vividly, turned around and walked back to her.He bent down slightly, and whispered in her ear, "This king is paying homage to himself, but in fact, this king has already died."
boom--
Hearing what he said, Mingzhu was really startled.For him, she has always been unable to figure it out.At this moment, she looked at him in fear, as if she was looking at a monster.Mingzhu laughed dryly twice, the corners of Wei Yang's mouth were a little stiff, and said embarrassingly, "My lord, this joke is not funny at all."
Feng Zhanxiu sharply captured the fear in her eyes and the instinct to reject her.He straightened up and said casually, "Yes! This king's joke is really not funny. If not, tell me a joke."
"I won't." Mingzhu immediately refused and at the same time heaved a sigh of relief.
Why do you still feel weird?
"I remember that day, you told a good joke." Feng Zhanxiu put his arm around her waist and pulled her into his arms.With the other hand, she tore off her fox fur, revealing her white neck.Mingzhu only felt a chill, but he had already leaned his head on her shoulder, boldly kissing her delicate skin.
The wet tongue touched her lightly, extremely provocative and ambiguous, the warm feeling made Mingzhu tremble all over.
She panicked and just wanted to push him away, "Feng Zhanxiu!"
"No joke? Then tell me two riddles for this king to guess, otherwise, this king will take you here." His threatening words sounded in his ears, and his big palm around her became even stronger.The tip of her tongue licked the skin she had kissed just now, and she took a deep breath, which made her tremble.
Mingzhu's mind was confused, she was thinking anxiously, and shouted, "A tortoise built a house and guessed the name of the medicine."
"En?" Feng Zhanxiu thought for a long time, but couldn't think of an answer, "I don't know."
"Cover the cover!"
"Gaizhonggai? What is that? This doesn't count, let's talk!"
Mingzhu couldn't think of anything else for a while, so she continued, "The turtle built another house, and guessed the name of the medicine."
"..."
"I don't know? In fact, it's the new Gai Zhong Gai!" Mingzhu suppressed a smile with a smug face.
Feng Zhanxiu sensed that she was snickering, and said, "One more time!"
"My lord is lying, I only asked me to say two things just now." Mingzhu grasped the clues in his words and insisted.
The smile in Feng Zhanxiu's eyes grew stronger, his flexible tongue protruded from his mouth again, and with a light lick, the fiery kiss sucked out a rosy red mark along his neck.Mingzhu was sore and itchy by his actions, but she couldn't break free from him, so she begged for mercy unbearably, "I'll say it! I'll say it again! My lord! Don't be like this..."
"Say it quickly!" Feng Zhanxiu's voice sank a little, calming down the chaotic atmosphere.
Mingzhu raised her heart, said very aggrieved and helpless, "Little turtle went crazy, and built more than 300 houses in a fit of anger, and then guessed the name of the medicine."
Feng Zhanxiu was bored for a while, but still spit out those two words, "I don't know."
"Ju Neng Gai, ah ha ha!" Mingzhu was so happy that she forgot her roots, and threw the current dangerous situation out of the sky.
The faint fragrance that seemed to be absent from her body rushed to her nose, Feng Zhanxiu sniffed deeply, and suddenly there was a movement in her heart, and she even had the desire to possess.He suddenly stretched out his hand to hug her tightly, closed his eyes, suppressed his anger, and murmured, "Tell me, who are you?"
Mingzhu's whole body was stiff, as if struck by lightning.Hastily regaining consciousness, murmured, "Pearl, Pearl of the Night."
"Princess of the Daxing Dynasty, Hongdi's beloved daughter." Feng Zhanxiu slowly opened his eyes, and loosened his hands that hugged her tightly.
"I... I'm anxious, I'm anxious!" Mingzhu pushed him away suddenly, turned around and ran away.
Feng Zhanxiu stared at her running thin figure, his eyes narrowed, "The descendants of Donglingpo..."
※※※
Mingzhu fled back to Yin'an Palace, fearing that some lunatic would catch up to her.Then I learned from Xia'er that he seemed to be out of the house to handle some errands, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.He actually asked who she was, did he discover something?Have you found out that you are not the real Ye Mingzhu?She was worried and nervous.
It was not until dinner time that Feng Zhanxiu returned to the residence.Then, a servant girl came to invite her to dinner.
The dining place is Xuan Yuan in the East Garden.
Accompanied by Xia'er and two other maids, Mingzhu went to Xuanyuan.When she came to the East Garden again, she found that the eye-catching yellow paper notes on the plum trees in the garden had long since disappeared.She was a little surprised, and asked softly, "My lord ordered someone to pick up those yellow papers?"
"Yellow note? What yellow note?" The servant girl asked in confusion.
Mingzhu's heart sank, she shook her head lightly, she just smiled and said nothing.
The pavilion surrounded by flowers is already close at hand.
In the Xuan Yuan, Feng Zhanxiu was drinking wine leisurely by himself.The bamboo curtain was raised, he stopped his movements, and looked up at the person coming.Seeing her cautious and defensive look, it became interesting for no reason.
As soon as Mingzhu stepped here, she thought of Gu Ruo'er again.Somewhat depressed, but saw that he was waving at her.She had no choice but to sit in the seat farthest from him, and did not intend to continue arguing with him at this time.As long as she returned to the capital, she would no longer have to be afraid of him, and she could stay away from him.
"What are you doing so far away from me? Sit next to me!" Feng Zhanxiu looked at her across the table and shouted displeasedly.
Mingzhu gritted her teeth, stood up, walked to the seat beside him and sat down.
"Tonight is New Year's Eve, come and drink with me." Feng Zhanxiu was very interested, and poured her a glass of wine.
Mingzhu frowned, looking at the wine glass in front of her, "I don't know how to drink."
"Then I have to drink it even more." He seemed to find fault on purpose, and directly picked up the wine glass to her lips, motioning for her to drink, "What? Don't you have the guts? Or are you afraid that the king will poison this wine? Will you be poisoned?" die?"
Mingzhu glanced at him angrily, "Who's scared!" She snatched the wine glass from his hand, raised her head and drank it all.The slightly sweet wine flowed from her throat into her stomach, but there was nothing unusual. She lifted the glass upside down, "It's finished."
"Then have another glass." Feng Zhanxiu moved very quickly, and brought another wine glass in front of her.
"Just drink it." Mingzhu only felt that the wine tasted good, and it was not uncomfortable to drink, so she put up her courage and drank it again.
She drank one cup after another, and her eyes began to blur...
"Why is it gone? Eh? It's over there!" Seeing three wine glasses in front of her, Mingzhu shook her head and said in a daze.Looking at the jug on the side, she smiled "hehe" and stretched out her hand tremblingly to grab it.
But her hands were grasped by someone, Feng Zhanxiu said in a deep voice, "Don't drink."
"Why? I want to drink." Mingzhu muttered reluctantly.
Feng Zhanxiu stood up, picked her up, and sat back down again.She fell into his arms obediently, her mind was dizzy, and her consciousness began to blur.It's just that the broad and strong chest made Mingzhu feel familiar for a moment, as if it was Dong Xiaotian's gentle embrace as always.
"You... who are you..." Mingzhu squinted her beautiful eyes, and she asked foolishly with a gentle face in front of her eyes.
Feng Zhanxiu drew the corners of his lips and said in a deep voice, "I am the one you love, who do you think I am."
"The one I love." Mingzhu read his words, smiled softly, and closed her eyes again.She snuggled into his arms tightly, curled up into a ball, seeking warmth, "I don't love you, you are so bad."
"Am I bad?" Feng Zhanxiu patted her gently, as if trying to lure her to sleep.
Mingzhu frowned, and said aggrievedly, "I've been away from you for so long...you never thought about me...you didn't even send me a letter...the day I left...you...you didn't Didn't come to see me off... didn't even come to see me for the last time...I..."
Feng Zhanxiu's patted hand stopped, with a relaxed expression, and started to pat again.
"I...I'm not your sister...I'm not..." Mingzhu said dully, with some regret in her voice.
Feng Zhanxiu's eyes flickered with determination, and his leisurely expression was full of fierceness.If he was seen at this moment, he might convulse with fright.
"So you already knew, hehehehe."
His laughter was hazy and full of laughter.

"Tat-tat--"
Several carriages formed a team and marched forward.
In the carriage, someone was still sleeping.However, she obviously slept uncomfortably, and the sound of horseshoes disturbed her ears, and she finally woke up sleepily.The moment she opened her eyes, the light was dazzling. She rubbed her eyes and saw Xia'er's happy little face. She said, "Master, you're awake? Hurry up and wash up."
Mingzhu was stunned for a while, and then she regained her strength.Looking around, she found that she was already in the carriage, she hurriedly asked, "Xia'er, where are we going?"
"Master, we are returning to the capital!" Xia'er said excitedly and happily.
capital?capital!Mingzhu was stunned, she didn't expect that the Fengzhan Xiuhui would go so fast, just after New Year's Eve, and set off early in the morning on the first day of the new year, heading for the capital.Mingzhu reached out and raised the curtain of the carriage window, and looked out of the window.In the distance, the city of Yicheng is close at hand, but it seems to be far away at the end of the world.
And the life in the palace for nearly a year also seemed like a dream.
She opened her eyes and woke up from the dream.It's time for her to go back.
Xia'er took the kettle, poured clean water for her to relax, put the remaining water in the basin into the basin, squeezed a face towel, "Master! Just make up for it, and it will be fine when you get back to the capital." .”
"Where's my Ye Mingzhu? Xia'er?" Ming Zhu sighed, and wiped her face with a face towel.Suddenly her hands froze, she asked hastily.
Xia'er comforted, "Master, it's here! I haven't lost it! Don't panic!" She turned around and took out the embroidery pouch from the brocade box at the back, and handed it to Mingzhu again with both hands.
Mingzhu took the embroidered pouch and hastily tore open the pouch.She breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the bright orb in her eyes.It was inconvenient to carry it on her body before, but she forgot to carry it on her body afterwards. She was really afraid of losing this treasure.Holding the orb tightly, it was like feeling the kind fatherly love of Emperor Hong, her father who was the emperor.
"Master! You have suffered so much in the palace, and the prince has treated you like this. What are you going to do after you go back?" Xia Er asked in a low voice, holding her hand.
Mingzhu frowned, the road ahead is long, but she really doesn't know what to do.Should she go to sue her father and punish him severely, or just divorce him?Just get a divorce!From now on, he walks on his Yangguan way, and she walks on her single-plank bridge.
"Master, you can't be soft-hearted, the prince is so half-hearted, you must tell the emperor, let the emperor decide for you..."
Looking at Xia'er's worried and concerned face, Mingzhu made up her mind.
※※※
They set off on the first day of the Lunar New Year and passed through several cities along the road. The carriage traveled for half a month before arriving at the capital.Inside the carriage, Mingzhu was very uncomfortable.The journey was bumpy and tiring, and her "motion sickness" symptoms did not improve at all, and it was still the same as when she went there.From time to time, Xia'er wiped her with cool oil, and lightly squeezed her temples to relieve her headache.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed by the window of the carriage, and a respectful male voice came, "Princess! In another hour, I will enter the city."
"Amitabha, thank God." Xia Er hastily clasped his hands together, "It's finally here!"
When Mingzhu heard this transmission, her originally peaceful heart could no longer remain silent.
She couldn't help getting up and poking her head out the window.I saw Zhongli riding forward on horseback, and at the front of the carriage, Feng Zhanxiu's proud and straight back could be vaguely seen.In the half month since the journey, he treated himself with gentleness and courtesy, and took good care of him, as if he had put on that mask of disguise again, with hypocrisy in his tenderness.
Mingzhu sat quietly in the carriage, holding the orb in her little hand and stroking it.
An hour later.
The capital city was already ahead, Xia'er looked up and cheered, "Master! It's here! I saw the capital city!"
"Are you there?" Mingzhu asked in amazement, and also opened her head to look.
Sure enough, he saw the majestic and sacred city in the distance.She's back at last, she's back here at last.The capital, here she comes, the palace, here she comes.Father, long time no see.And Dong Xiaotian, does he still recognize her...
Feng Zhanxiu in front of the team suddenly looked back, and the moment he turned his head, his deep eyes met Mingzhu.
Without saying a word, he took a deep look and looked away.
Mingzhu's little hand trembled, and the orb almost fell.
(End of this chapter)
Since that day, the Yanyun Building has been guarded by guards, regardless of day or night.Mingzhu wanted to visit inside several times, but was stopped by the guards.For several consecutive nights, Mingzhu had nightmares again and again, as if she was being targeted by something dirty.There was always a pair of vicious eyes watching her in the dream, so she had no choice but to run away desperately.
But no matter how she escaped, she just couldn't escape that terrifying gaze.
When she woke up in the morning, Mingzhu felt very tired, not only because she didn't sleep well, but also because of heart palpitations.
"Master, are you having nightmares again?" Xia'er asked softly as she brought some water for washing up.
Mingzhu sighed slightly, said "En", and didn't want to recall any more.
After washing and combing, I used some snacks.She drank two mouthfuls of a bowl of millet porridge but she lost her appetite. Recently, her appetite has become worse and worse.Mingzhu put down the spoon and shook her head, "Xia'er, take it away. I don't want to eat."
"Master? You have eaten too little recently, and your body is just right. Eat more." Xia'er reminded.
Mingzhu waved her hand, she opened her mouth to say something, but a little servant girl rushed into the room and said back, "Ma'am, Mr. Gongsun is here."
"Ask him to come in." Mingzhu said.
The little servant girl responded and immediately turned around to pass the message.Xia'er also hastily collected some snacks and left.Mingzhu vaguely heard Xia'er calling "Gongsun Gongzi", and then saw Gongsun Qingming flashing leisurely in her sight.He seems to be extremely fond of white, and he always arrives in white clothes, slowly shaking a jade fan in his hand.
Gongsun Qingming walked in with his hands behind his back, walked towards Mingzhu, and said as he walked, "You didn't eat a bite of the candied haws I bought for you last time. If you still don't eat this one today, then I will turn my face against you. "He smiled, and threw out his hands behind his back. In his hands were two bunches of brightly colored candied haws.
When Mingzhu saw the candied haws, she was pleasantly surprised, "Thank you, Mr. Gongsun, I will definitely finish eating this time." After she finished speaking, she quickly reached out to pick it up.But he deliberately moved his hand aside to prevent her from reaching it.Mingzhu raised her eyebrows and looked at him suspiciously.
"Hey! I started calling my son so unfamiliar again, which makes me very sad." Gongsun Qingming's tone was pitiful, but his expression was unrestrained and self-satisfied.
Mingzhu snatched the candied haws from his hand, her dark eyes turned cleverly, "Since this is the case, then I won't call you that anymore. However, in the future, don't blame me for not being polite. Gong, Sun, Qing, Ming! "She called his name, reading every single word.
"Are you so pedantic?" Gongsun Qingming flicked his robe and sat down.
Mingzhu put a bunch of candied haws on the plate, and ate another bunch of candied haws.Hawthorn was sweet and sour, and she couldn't help frowning.Gongsun Qingming looked at her with great interest, his eyes were full of tenderness, even he himself had never noticed the tenderness.Suddenly, he said in a deep voice, "I'm here this time to say goodbye to you."
"Farewell?" Mingzhu was taken aback, her mouth was still full of candied haws, and she said vaguely, "Gongsun Qingming, where are you going?"
"I have something to do, so I have to go. Then New Year's Eve is approaching, so it is not appropriate to stay in the palace." Gongsun Qingming replied softly.
Mingzhu heard what he said, grabbed the candied haws, and muttered to count the days, "One, two, three...six..." After breaking her fingers, she suddenly realized, "That's right, there are only six days left. Here we are. Are you going home? Hey? Where is your home? Can you make it back in time?"
"Why can't we make it in time? There is no home everywhere, and there is home everywhere." Gongsun Qingming pointed.
Homeless?Everywhere is home?Does he have no home?What about his family?Could it be... Could it be that he was alone?The smile on her face froze at the corner of her mouth, Mingzhu hesitated to speak.After holding back for a while, I couldn't help but said, "It's better to stay in the palace for the new year, anyway, the palace is so big, there are not many people..."
"One less person is a lot." Gongsun Qingming took the words naturally and smiled happily.
Mingzhu hastily put down the candied haws, and hastily explained, "That's not what I meant, don't get me wrong..."
"It's Chinese New Year, and I want to give you a gift. I don't know what you want?" Gongsun Qingming changed the subject, obviously not wanting to continue the discussion.
Even though she was still full of confusion, Mingzhu tactfully kept her mouth shut, for fear of touching other people's wounds.Looking at Gongsun Qingming in front of him, he suddenly felt a sense of intimacy.After thinking for a while, those terrifying bloodshot eyes flashed again in her mind, and she blurted out, "You do me a favor."
"What?" Seeing her expression change slightly, Gongsun Qingming asked with raised eyebrows.
※※※
The sun is shining and the weather is getting warmer.In the high wall, towering trees can be seen when you look up, and the rich fragrance of plum blossoms is tangy.The big wall in the backyard with no one is facing a rockery.In the stone cave of the rockery, two figures groped forward one after the other.The person who leads the way is Mingzhu, and the person who follows behind is Gongsun Qingming.
"What are you doing here?" Gongsun Qingming asked curiously.
Mingzhu turned her head and hissed, and made a silent gesture, "Hush your voice! Don't let anyone hear you!"
"Come, here, here, what, what..." Gongsun Qingming immediately lowered his voice cooperatively, the rough male voice was a little funny.
The light ahead is getting closer and closer, and the air is getting fresher.Mingzhu took a big step and finally ran out of the dark and damp cave.She turned to look at Gongsun Qingming, looked around, and whispered, "You know how to do light work, don't you? Take me to fly in! I want to go in here!"
"What are you doing here?" Gongsun Qingming was very confused.
"Hurry up, stop talking nonsense, and fly me in quickly." Mingzhu grabbed his wrist and entangled him desperately.
Gongsun Qingming lost his mind, stretched out his long arms and wrapped them around her waist.With one step on the ground, the air was transported to the dantian, and with one step, he stepped on the high wall and flew into the courtyard.Mingzhu only felt dizzy for a while, but it was very exciting.When she came back to her senses, she had already landed on the ground, safe and sound.
"Yanyun Tower? What are you doing here?" Gongsun Qingming looked around and asked again.
Mingzhu said softly, "I'm here to meet someone."
"Meet someone? Mrs. Gu?" Gongsun Qingming asked, "Isn't she crazy?"
Mingzhu immediately made a "cross" gesture with both hands, signaling him not to continue talking.She glanced at him, and walked cautiously towards the boudoir.Gongsun Qingming followed closely behind, and said in a low voice, "I heard that the prince sent guards to guard the Yanyun Tower, and no one is allowed to enter. If you do this, you won't be afraid that the prince will find out and punish you?"
"Punishment? Anyway, I'm used to it." Mingzhu said indifferently, walking more hastily.
In the blink of an eye, the two turned to the corridor, and the mournful weeping sounded faintly again.
Gongsun Qingming only felt a sudden chill, and there seemed to be an inexplicable chill in front of him, but it was very strange.He stopped in his tracks, and reached out to grab the pearl that was rushing forward.Mingzhu turned her head annoyed, Gongsun Qingming warned, "Don't go, it's too cloudy here, it will make people sick."
"Where is the Yin Qi! Are you scaring me?" Mingzhu frowned.
"I won't lie to you." Gongsun Qingming's expression of teasing was reversed, and his handsome face was calm and serious.Seeing him like this, Mingzhu was startled.Holding Mingzhu's hand, he returned to the way he came, and said as he walked, "You have just recovered, it's best not to go to those dirty places, lest you get sick again."
"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
"Don't come to me, woo woo woo—"
The sound of weeping echoed again, and Gu Ruoer's frightened face suddenly jumped out in front of her eyes.Mingzhu's heart was empty, she turned her head from time to time, and hurriedly slapped Gongsun Qingming's hand again.But her strength was too weak, and she couldn't get rid of his restraint at all.Looking at his tall back, he had to grit his teeth and shout, "Gongsun Qingming! Let me go! Let go!"
"Hush!" Gongsun Qingming covered her mouth to keep her from making noise, "Do you want to disturb the guards?"
"..." Mingzhu's eyes widened, and she stopped speaking helplessly.
Only then did Gongsun Qingming let go of his hand, and asked abruptly in a low voice, "Do you believe there are ghosts in this world?"
"You..." Mingzhu swallowed, and timidly shook her head, "I, I don't believe it."
Gongsun Qing stared at her with bright black eyes, raised a smile, and said in a deep voice, "Since the prince doesn't allow people to come in, he must have his reasons. Don't trespass without permission, do you hear me?"
"I didn't hear that! I want to see Gu Ruo'er!" Mingzhu retorted stubbornly.
"If you don't hear it, you have to hear it!" Gongsun Qingming finished speaking, and touched her acupuncture points.Mingzhu was stunned in place, unable to move or speak, so she could only stare at him.He picked her up by the waist and ran out of the corridor quickly.I saw a white figure stepping on the high wall and jumping out.
※※※
After tossing in vain, Mingzhu angrily walked back to Yin'an Hall.A foot away from her, Gongsun Qingming followed calmly.Seeing her awkward look, he felt a little amused, and ran after her.Mingzhu ignored him, but Gongsun Qingming said, "What? Are you angry?"
"You are a coward." Mingzhu scolded.
"Yes, yes, I am a coward." Gongsun Qingming replied agreeingly.
The two were arguing, and two people walked slowly in front of them.Mingzhu looked up and saw Feng Zhanxiu walking towards Lizheng with his bodyguards.She stopped abruptly, glanced at Gongsun Qingming, and whispered, "If you dare to tell the truth, I will never talk to you again."
"Aren't you afraid of punishment?" Gongsun Qingming met Feng Zhanxiu's scrutinizing gaze without looking sideways.
Mingzhu pursed her lips and said nothing, she was just afraid that she would not have a chance to sneak in again.
"Why are you two together?" Feng Zhanxiu approached the two of them, squinted his eyes in displeasure, and asked in a deep voice.
"Let's go for a walk."
"Just met."
At the same time, the two responded with their own words.
Why are you so unlucky!If I knew she would have stopped talking!Mingzhu twisted her eyebrows, and lowered her head in misery.
Gongsun Qingming shook the jade fan lightly, and immediately smoothed things over, "My lord, we just met, and then we will take a walk together."
"Really." Feng Zhanxiu's tone was flat, and he couldn't tell whether he believed it or not.
Mingzhu nodded hurriedly.
"It's getting late, you should go." Feng Zhanxiu said these words to Gongsun Qingming, but his eyes were fixed on that drooping little head.
"Then I will take my leave, my lord cherishes it." Gongsun Qingming held his fan in both hands and said with a smile.
Mingzhu looked up at him, "Leave now? In such a hurry?"
"Yes! I'm leaving." Gongsun Qingming also looked back at her, with a light smile on his face, "Businessmen don't trade at a loss, so I gave you a gift just now, next time you have to give me back one too. .I’ll remember it below. Farewell, farewell.” He turned around lightly, and walked in a chic white dress.
Mingzhu was dumbfounded immediately, isn't he, this person is real!Obviously he was going to give her a gift!Want to pay it back now?
Mingzhu didn't turn her head until Gongsun Qingming's figure walked away.Turning around, facing the charming Junrong of Shangfeng Zhanxiu, he instinctively lowered his head again.These days, he would come to Yin'an Hall every day, but he never stayed overnight.That's fine, if he wants to stay overnight by force, she doesn't know what to do!
What are you going to say now?Flash people directly!
Mingzhu supported her body and said softly, "My lord, I'm going back to Yin'an Hall."
Feng Zhanxiu's eyes turned deep, his displeasure swelled for no reason, he suddenly stretched out his hand towards Mingzhu, grabbed her to his side, and hugged her.Mingzhu exhaled softly, and was already in his arms in the blink of an eye.She tried to struggle, but was stopped by his eyes, and she was shocked silently.
"You have been to Yanyun Building." He shouted.
"I……"
"My king told you not to go, but you decided to go. Are you trying to challenge my patience?" Feng Zhanxiu asked coldly.
Mingzhu looked at him proudly, and retorted, "Yes! I have been to the Yanyun Tower! So what? Why did the prince lock her in and not let anyone see her?"
"If you go again, this king will kill her, and it will be settled once and for all." He put down his harsh words, feeling extremely gloomy.
Mingzhu was taken aback by the haze in his eyes, she asked in confusion, "I just went to see her, why are you so disgusted? She also spent time with you before, are you so cruel?"
"Oh!" Feng Zhanxiu chuckled, but asked in the same confusion, "She hurt you, beat you, scolded you for harming you, but you were so naive and ridiculous! You even pitied her and pleaded for her, Why are you so compassionate? Don't you hate? Seeing her go crazy, you should be happy!"
Mingzhu pushed him away forcefully, "Yes! That's right! I'm naive and ridiculously stupid! She hurt me and framed me, I really should hate her. Now that she has ended up like this, I should be even more happy.
"As the prince said, she deserves what she deserves."
Her voice trembled a little, "But I'm not happy at all."
"My lord, don't forget, I will be hurt by her, beaten and framed by her, all because of you, my lord! If my lord hadn't indulged her and let her go, would she have done this? Everything, if you really want to ask, find out I understand that the culprit is none other than you, the prince!"
"After leaving the capital and arriving at the palace, I realized that I am no longer a princess! I have never regarded myself as a princess!"
"I will never forget, it was you who deposed me, and you gave me to Gu Ruo'er as a servant girl!"
"But you, my lord, are one thing today, and you will be another thing tomorrow. You turn your back on it, believe it if you believe it, and don't believe it if you don't believe it. Human life is in your eyes, and the power of life and death is in your hands. If you are happy, that person will Can live, you are not happy, that person can't even die!"
"Do you think it's fun? Are you watching a play?"
"I'm really curious."
"Feng Zhanxiu, you can't be alone, wearing a mask, are you tired?"
At the end, the angry female voice turned out to be murmured indistinctly, drifting melodiously in the wind, as if there was an echo hovering.
Zhongli had been standing not far behind Feng Zhanxiu, and he was stunned to hear these words.No one has ever dared to accuse the prince like this, let alone point out the prince.Only this princess, only her.When everyone came back to their senses, Feng Zhanxiu straightened his back, and there was a burst of wild air around his body, which gradually condensed.
Zhongli secretly yelled "It's not good," and wanted to step forward, but he heard Feng Zhanxiu's deep laughter.
He laughed abruptly, making Mingzhu stunned.He, he, what is he laughing at?
Feng Zhanxiu narrowed his eagle eyes, his tall body swayed, and took a step towards her.Mingzhu clenched her fists tightly, not allowing herself to back down at this moment.If she backs off, it means that she is afraid of him and she has surrendered.She raised her head stubbornly, without any dodge, and looked at him so calmly.
For a while, neither of them spoke.
The fragrance of plum blossoms is strong, as if it can confuse people's minds.
Feng Zhanxiu suddenly stretched his brows, his expression was a bit hollow, the arrogant aura subsided, but it was another kind of terrifying loneliness.The deep eyes gathered light, and locked her figure in the pupils. He moved his lips, and said in a deep voice, "You can't be alone, wearing a mask, are you tired?"
There was an unknown trance in that handsome face that was close at hand, and Mingzhu looked at him stupidly.
Feng Zhanxiu drew the corners of his lips, suddenly stretched out his hand, and hugged her into his arms with strong arms.His movements may seem rough, but they are extremely gentle.Mingzhu didn't expect him to make such a move, and his unique masculine aura instantly surrounded her.His big palm pressed the back of her head, pressing her to his chest.
"Let go of me, Feng Zhanxiu, let me go..." Mingzhu shouted in fear, rejecting his embrace.
"Don't move." He lowered his head and whispered in her ear.
Mingzhu seemed to be hypnotized, and she didn't dare to move anymore.Why, why does his embrace make her feel boundless loneliness and nothingness.
Lost for a moment, I heard him say, "Are you caring about me now?"
Such a light sentence is like a leaf floating into the heart lake of a pearl.Mingzhu's eyes widened in astonishment, her lips parted slightly, and she was bored for a while, not knowing what to say.For the first time, since she met him now, he didn't call himself "the king" for the first time, but used the word "I".
"You said that this king has no one's heart, so are you willing to give your heart to this king?" Feng Zhanxiu murmured, his warm lips pressed against her skin, like a lover's caress.His tone was very frivolous, and he smiled lowly.
Mingzhu heard his banter and was startled, "Let me go!"
Feng Zhanxiu loosened the strength of his hands at the right time, and let her retreat from his arms, "Why? Don't you want to? Do you know how many women in the Daxing Dynasty are willing!"
"I don't care about you! I don't care about you! Even if women in the Daxing Dynasty are willing to give their hearts to you, I won't! Even if you die tomorrow, I will never shed a tear. And I still Laugh, laugh at you, and you will finally be rewarded with evil, laugh at you being taken away by the King of Hades!" Mingzhu swore angrily.
"Hehe, women love to tell lies, and this king knows that." He responded lightly, and the amber eyes flashed brightly, fleeting.
"Feng Zhanxiu, why are you laughing!" Mingzhu felt that she was being teased by him, and she was suddenly depressed.His smiling handsome face was full of sarcasm in her eyes, but she had nothing to do with him, she couldn't beat him, and he couldn't speak well.In a word, she is bad, absolutely bad.
Mingzhu gritted her teeth and stepped forward, raised her leg and kicked him.But he didn't move at all, on the contrary, his feet hurt, "You..."
"Does it hurt from kicking? Get a doctor to look at it for you?" Feng Zhanxiu said pitifully, as if to hug her.
Mingzhu took a few big steps back cleverly, avoiding his claws, "Go to hell!" After she finished speaking, she turned around and ran back to Yin'an Hall.
"After the New Year's Eve, I will take you back to the capital." Feng Zhanxiu's deep male voice came from behind, and Mingzhu stopped in shock.But he also turned around and walked in another direction.
Mingzhu never expected that he would take her back on his own initiative...
Six days later, New Year's Eve.
There was an atmosphere of joy in the city, and every household hung up red lanterns to celebrate the new year.From the morning, the sound of firecrackers sounded all over the sky, and the city was full of bustling and lively scenes.There was a lot of voices, and the city residents put on beautiful new clothes, replenished their last New Year's goods, and were busy with the New Year's Eve dinner at night.
Mingzhu also gets up very early, these days, she gets up very early every day.It's not because of the New Year, I feel excited and excited.It's just that the nightmares continued, and she couldn't sleep peacefully.And what Feng Zhanxiu said that day still echoed in his ears.After talking about New Year's Eve, he took her back to the capital.
But why, did he want to take her back?
Isn't he afraid that when he returns to the capital, he will join the army and sue his father?
Mingzhu couldn't figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking about it.As the saying goes, when a car reaches the mountain, there must be a road, and when a boat reaches the bridge, it is naturally straight.Xia'er helped her wash and dress, and Mingzhu just opened her mouth and stretched out her hands, and she was happy and at ease.After she finished dressing, Mingzhu looked at herself in the bronze mirror, dumbfounded.
This dress... is too gorgeous, right?
It was a splendid peach red dress embroidered with peonies, and the edges were exquisitely inlaid with gold silk borders, exuding grace and nobility.Peony is both delicate and gorgeous, usually she just feels too arrogant, but the gorgeous dress in front of her now does not look too expensive, it has its own charm and incomparable solemn beauty.The scarf is made of high-quality fox fur, which fits snugly around the neck, making it look cute and exquisite.
Xia'er caressed the fox fur and said in admiration, "Master, this dress was specially sent by the prince. It's really beautiful."
"The prince ordered someone to send it?" Mingzhu was stunned.
Xia'er nodded, and just about to speak, a deep male voice sounded from behind, "It's the king!"
"My lord, all blessings!" Xia'er hurriedly helped her up and greeted her.
Mingzhu turned her head and looked, only to see Feng Zhanxiu wearing a two-color brocade suit with a hundred butterflies and a red satin gown with a bluestone color on the outside. Blue-faced velvet court boots.Maybe it's because of this gorgeous dress, the whole person looks a little more gentle.
Only in those eagle eyes, the hidden sharpness faintly emerges.
Feng Zhanxiu looked straight at Mingzhu, and said casually, "Back off."
"Yes!" Xia Er stepped back in response.
After Xia'er left, Mingzhu stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say.She hesitated in her heart and never spoke.However, Feng Zhanxiu took a step forward and looked her up and down leisurely. His gaze was very bold, without any shyness, as if she had no clothes on.
"You...what are you looking at." Mingzhu blurted out Sunrise intuitively.
Feng Zhanxiu smiled, "You look very beautiful today." Mingzhu was suffocated by his sudden praise, and she tightly clutched her clothes with her small hands and pursed her lips in silence.He took another step forward and walked slowly in front of her.For some reason, under his gaze, she felt a little palpitated, her face was slightly reddish from the domineering masculine aura.
He stopped, looked at her condescendingly, and said quietly, "Sure enough, people depend on clothes and Buddha depends on gold."
This man really can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth!Still so vicious!Mingzhu glared at him angrily.
"Do you like it?" Feng Zhanxiu raised his hand, touched her soft | tender skin with his fingertips, and scraped gently.
There seemed to be scorching heat from his fingertips, and it passed to her. Mingzhu pursed her mouth, and said, "This dress should be very expensive, the prince is really generous."
"Hehe." Feng Zhanxiu smiled comfortably, as if he had expected her to react like this.
"Why are you laughing!" Mingzhu was annoyed.
Feng Zhanxiu grabbed her little hand and held it tightly.He turned around and pulled her out of the room.Mingzhu was dragged by him like this, so she had to take small steps to keep up.She shook her hand, trying to get rid of him, but he held it tightly, not allowing her to escape.Looking at his tall back, Mingzhu asked angrily, "My lord, where are you taking me!"
"Appreciate the flowers." A deep male voice floated from the front, and said the two words leisurely.
Appreciation, appreciation of flowers?
※※※
Wangfu East Garden.
Feng Zhanxiu hurriedly dragged Mingzhu all the way, but Mingzhu made a lot of noise, but he ignored her.When he ran into the East Garden, he stopped and turned to face her.But the hand that was holding her was still not loosened.Mingzhu panted, and said intermittently, "What are you doing...you...bringing me here..."
"Hush!" Feng Zhanxiu stretched out his hand to touch her lips, and asked in a deep voice, "Is it pretty?"
His tall and straight body moved to the side, and Mingzhu saw a pink world, but there were streaks of yellow in her eyes, which surprised her endlessly.The plum trees are in full bloom, and this is the most romantic season. The pink petals of the trees are full of fragrance, which is refreshing with the wind.
The branches of the plum tree are covered with yellow paper.
The pink of the plum blossom and the yellow of the paper seem to be the only two colors in this world.
Mingzhu looked at the yellow note and murmured, "Are you crazy? On such a festive day of the Chinese New Year, you actually hang a yellow note?"
"What? Don't you think it's pretty?" Feng Zhanxiu asked casually.
Mingzhu turned her head and looked sideways, his dazed handsome face was reflected in her eyes, "Don't you know that the yellow paper is used to commemorate the dead?"
"Oh? I just think it's beautiful." Feng Zhanxiu didn't think so, neither surprised nor surprised.He walked towards the plum grove, and under the sunlight, his tall back was rendered with a thousand kinds of glazed luster.His steps are light, and the tassels and long tassels are blown by the wind, flying scattered in the wind.
Reminiscent of heaven and man, beyond the mundane, can not be described in words.
Driven by curiosity and confused by the yellow paper strips all over the garden, Mingzhu couldn't help asking, "My lord, who are you paying homage to?"
"You want to know?" Feng Zhanxiu turned his head and glanced at her.
Mingzhu suddenly felt an inexplicable fear, but she still nodded her head.
Feng Zhanxiu smiled vividly, turned around and walked back to her.He bent down slightly, and whispered in her ear, "This king is paying homage to himself, but in fact, this king has already died."
boom--
Hearing what he said, Mingzhu was really startled.For him, she has always been unable to figure it out.At this moment, she looked at him in fear, as if she was looking at a monster.Mingzhu laughed dryly twice, the corners of Wei Yang's mouth were a little stiff, and said embarrassingly, "My lord, this joke is not funny at all."
Feng Zhanxiu sharply captured the fear in her eyes and the instinct to reject her.He straightened up and said casually, "Yes! This king's joke is really not funny. If not, tell me a joke."
"I won't." Mingzhu immediately refused and at the same time heaved a sigh of relief.
Why do you still feel weird?
"I remember that day, you told a good joke." Feng Zhanxiu put his arm around her waist and pulled her into his arms.With the other hand, she tore off her fox fur, revealing her white neck.Mingzhu only felt a chill, but he had already leaned his head on her shoulder, boldly kissing her delicate skin.
The wet tongue touched her lightly, extremely provocative and ambiguous, the warm feeling made Mingzhu tremble all over.
She panicked and just wanted to push him away, "Feng Zhanxiu!"
"No joke? Then tell me two riddles for this king to guess, otherwise, this king will take you here." His threatening words sounded in his ears, and his big palm around her became even stronger.The tip of her tongue licked the skin she had kissed just now, and she took a deep breath, which made her tremble.
Mingzhu's mind was confused, she was thinking anxiously, and shouted, "A tortoise built a house and guessed the name of the medicine."
"En?" Feng Zhanxiu thought for a long time, but couldn't think of an answer, "I don't know."
"Cover the cover!"
"Gaizhonggai? What is that? This doesn't count, let's talk!"
Mingzhu couldn't think of anything else for a while, so she continued, "The turtle built another house, and guessed the name of the medicine."
"..."
"I don't know? In fact, it's the new Gai Zhong Gai!" Mingzhu suppressed a smile with a smug face.
Feng Zhanxiu sensed that she was snickering, and said, "One more time!"
"My lord is lying, I only asked me to say two things just now." Mingzhu grasped the clues in his words and insisted.
The smile in Feng Zhanxiu's eyes grew stronger, his flexible tongue protruded from his mouth again, and with a light lick, the fiery kiss sucked out a rosy red mark along his neck.Mingzhu was sore and itchy by his actions, but she couldn't break free from him, so she begged for mercy unbearably, "I'll say it! I'll say it again! My lord! Don't be like this..."
"Say it quickly!" Feng Zhanxiu's voice sank a little, calming down the chaotic atmosphere.
Mingzhu raised her heart, said very aggrieved and helpless, "Little turtle went crazy, and built more than 300 houses in a fit of anger, and then guessed the name of the medicine."
Feng Zhanxiu was bored for a while, but still spit out those two words, "I don't know."
"Ju Neng Gai, ah ha ha!" Mingzhu was so happy that she forgot her roots, and threw the current dangerous situation out of the sky.
The faint fragrance that seemed to be absent from her body rushed to her nose, Feng Zhanxiu sniffed deeply, and suddenly there was a movement in her heart, and she even had the desire to possess.He suddenly stretched out his hand to hug her tightly, closed his eyes, suppressed his anger, and murmured, "Tell me, who are you?"
Mingzhu's whole body was stiff, as if struck by lightning.Hastily regaining consciousness, murmured, "Pearl, Pearl of the Night."
"Princess of the Daxing Dynasty, Hongdi's beloved daughter." Feng Zhanxiu slowly opened his eyes, and loosened his hands that hugged her tightly.
"I... I'm anxious, I'm anxious!" Mingzhu pushed him away suddenly, turned around and ran away.
Feng Zhanxiu stared at her running thin figure, his eyes narrowed, "The descendants of Donglingpo..."
※※※
Mingzhu fled back to Yin'an Palace, fearing that some lunatic would catch up to her.Then I learned from Xia'er that he seemed to be out of the house to handle some errands, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.He actually asked who she was, did he discover something?Have you found out that you are not the real Ye Mingzhu?She was worried and nervous.
It was not until dinner time that Feng Zhanxiu returned to the residence.Then, a servant girl came to invite her to dinner.
The dining place is Xuan Yuan in the East Garden.
Accompanied by Xia'er and two other maids, Mingzhu went to Xuanyuan.When she came to the East Garden again, she found that the eye-catching yellow paper notes on the plum trees in the garden had long since disappeared.She was a little surprised, and asked softly, "My lord ordered someone to pick up those yellow papers?"
"Yellow note? What yellow note?" The servant girl asked in confusion.
Mingzhu's heart sank, she shook her head lightly, she just smiled and said nothing.
The pavilion surrounded by flowers is already close at hand.
In the Xuan Yuan, Feng Zhanxiu was drinking wine leisurely by himself.The bamboo curtain was raised, he stopped his movements, and looked up at the person coming.Seeing her cautious and defensive look, it became interesting for no reason.
As soon as Mingzhu stepped here, she thought of Gu Ruo'er again.Somewhat depressed, but saw that he was waving at her.She had no choice but to sit in the seat farthest from him, and did not intend to continue arguing with him at this time.As long as she returned to the capital, she would no longer have to be afraid of him, and she could stay away from him.
"What are you doing so far away from me? Sit next to me!" Feng Zhanxiu looked at her across the table and shouted displeasedly.
Mingzhu gritted her teeth, stood up, walked to the seat beside him and sat down.
"Tonight is New Year's Eve, come and drink with me." Feng Zhanxiu was very interested, and poured her a glass of wine.
Mingzhu frowned, looking at the wine glass in front of her, "I don't know how to drink."
"Then I have to drink it even more." He seemed to find fault on purpose, and directly picked up the wine glass to her lips, motioning for her to drink, "What? Don't you have the guts? Or are you afraid that the king will poison this wine? Will you be poisoned?" die?"
Mingzhu glanced at him angrily, "Who's scared!" She snatched the wine glass from his hand, raised her head and drank it all.The slightly sweet wine flowed from her throat into her stomach, but there was nothing unusual. She lifted the glass upside down, "It's finished."
"Then have another glass." Feng Zhanxiu moved very quickly, and brought another wine glass in front of her.
"Just drink it." Mingzhu only felt that the wine tasted good, and it was not uncomfortable to drink, so she put up her courage and drank it again.
She drank one cup after another, and her eyes began to blur...
"Why is it gone? Eh? It's over there!" Seeing three wine glasses in front of her, Mingzhu shook her head and said in a daze.Looking at the jug on the side, she smiled "hehe" and stretched out her hand tremblingly to grab it.
But her hands were grasped by someone, Feng Zhanxiu said in a deep voice, "Don't drink."
"Why? I want to drink." Mingzhu muttered reluctantly.
Feng Zhanxiu stood up, picked her up, and sat back down again.She fell into his arms obediently, her mind was dizzy, and her consciousness began to blur.It's just that the broad and strong chest made Mingzhu feel familiar for a moment, as if it was Dong Xiaotian's gentle embrace as always.
"You... who are you..." Mingzhu squinted her beautiful eyes, and she asked foolishly with a gentle face in front of her eyes.
Feng Zhanxiu drew the corners of his lips and said in a deep voice, "I am the one you love, who do you think I am."
"The one I love." Mingzhu read his words, smiled softly, and closed her eyes again.She snuggled into his arms tightly, curled up into a ball, seeking warmth, "I don't love you, you are so bad."
"Am I bad?" Feng Zhanxiu patted her gently, as if trying to lure her to sleep.
Mingzhu frowned, and said aggrievedly, "I've been away from you for so long...you never thought about me...you didn't even send me a letter...the day I left...you...you didn't Didn't come to see me off... didn't even come to see me for the last time...I..."
Feng Zhanxiu's patted hand stopped, with a relaxed expression, and started to pat again.
"I...I'm not your sister...I'm not..." Mingzhu said dully, with some regret in her voice.
Feng Zhanxiu's eyes flickered with determination, and his leisurely expression was full of fierceness.If he was seen at this moment, he might convulse with fright.
"So you already knew, hehehehe."
His laughter was hazy and full of laughter.

"Tat-tat--"
Several carriages formed a team and marched forward.
In the carriage, someone was still sleeping.However, she obviously slept uncomfortably, and the sound of horseshoes disturbed her ears, and she finally woke up sleepily.The moment she opened her eyes, the light was dazzling. She rubbed her eyes and saw Xia'er's happy little face. She said, "Master, you're awake? Hurry up and wash up."
Mingzhu was stunned for a while, and then she regained her strength.Looking around, she found that she was already in the carriage, she hurriedly asked, "Xia'er, where are we going?"
"Master, we are returning to the capital!" Xia'er said excitedly and happily.
capital?capital!Mingzhu was stunned, she didn't expect that the Fengzhan Xiuhui would go so fast, just after New Year's Eve, and set off early in the morning on the first day of the new year, heading for the capital.Mingzhu reached out and raised the curtain of the carriage window, and looked out of the window.In the distance, the city of Yicheng is close at hand, but it seems to be far away at the end of the world.
And the life in the palace for nearly a year also seemed like a dream.
She opened her eyes and woke up from the dream.It's time for her to go back.
Xia'er took the kettle, poured clean water for her to relax, put the remaining water in the basin into the basin, squeezed a face towel, "Master! Just make up for it, and it will be fine when you get back to the capital." .”
"Where's my Ye Mingzhu? Xia'er?" Ming Zhu sighed, and wiped her face with a face towel.Suddenly her hands froze, she asked hastily.
Xia'er comforted, "Master, it's here! I haven't lost it! Don't panic!" She turned around and took out the embroidery pouch from the brocade box at the back, and handed it to Mingzhu again with both hands.
Mingzhu took the embroidered pouch and hastily tore open the pouch.She breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the bright orb in her eyes.It was inconvenient to carry it on her body before, but she forgot to carry it on her body afterwards. She was really afraid of losing this treasure.Holding the orb tightly, it was like feeling the kind fatherly love of Emperor Hong, her father who was the emperor.
"Master! You have suffered so much in the palace, and the prince has treated you like this. What are you going to do after you go back?" Xia Er asked in a low voice, holding her hand.
Mingzhu frowned, the road ahead is long, but she really doesn't know what to do.Should she go to sue her father and punish him severely, or just divorce him?Just get a divorce!From now on, he walks on his Yangguan way, and she walks on her single-plank bridge.
"Master, you can't be soft-hearted, the prince is so half-hearted, you must tell the emperor, let the emperor decide for you..."
Looking at Xia'er's worried and concerned face, Mingzhu made up her mind.
※※※
They set off on the first day of the Lunar New Year and passed through several cities along the road. The carriage traveled for half a month before arriving at the capital.Inside the carriage, Mingzhu was very uncomfortable.The journey was bumpy and tiring, and her "motion sickness" symptoms did not improve at all, and it was still the same as when she went there.From time to time, Xia'er wiped her with cool oil, and lightly squeezed her temples to relieve her headache.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed by the window of the carriage, and a respectful male voice came, "Princess! In another hour, I will enter the city."
"Amitabha, thank God." Xia Er hastily clasped his hands together, "It's finally here!"
When Mingzhu heard this transmission, her originally peaceful heart could no longer remain silent.
She couldn't help getting up and poking her head out the window.I saw Zhongli riding forward on horseback, and at the front of the carriage, Feng Zhanxiu's proud and straight back could be vaguely seen.In the half month since the journey, he treated himself with gentleness and courtesy, and took good care of him, as if he had put on that mask of disguise again, with hypocrisy in his tenderness.
Mingzhu sat quietly in the carriage, holding the orb in her little hand and stroking it.
An hour later.
The capital city was already ahead, Xia'er looked up and cheered, "Master! It's here! I saw the capital city!"
"Are you there?" Mingzhu asked in amazement, and also opened her head to look.
Sure enough, he saw the majestic and sacred city in the distance.She's back at last, she's back here at last.The capital, here she comes, the palace, here she comes.Father, long time no see.And Dong Xiaotian, does he still recognize her...
Feng Zhanxiu in front of the team suddenly looked back, and the moment he turned his head, his deep eyes met Mingzhu.
Without saying a word, he took a deep look and looked away.
Mingzhu's little hand trembled, and the orb almost fell.
