Chapter 52 Going Crazy
Chapter 52 Going Crazy
"My lord..." Mingzhu choked up, shook her head and said, "It's not like that, it's not."
How can a murderer forget himself?It's just an escape move.After a murder, what else is there besides desolation and loneliness?Use killing to paralyze yourself, and use killing to remind yourself that hatred needs to spread and grow.He believes in hatred in order to live.
When the belief is gone, what is the difference between the living and the dead?
"There are still many people... who care about the prince, many, many people." Mingzhu said distressedly.
Feng Zhanxiu took a step forward, his tall body was a little shaky, and he laughed loudly, "Who? Who cares about this king? There are many, many people? This king can't see it! It's pitch black here!"
"General Zhongli, General Yun Ni, and many more." Mingzhu listed in a panic.
There is a voice that keeps shouting: I care about you, I care about you very much.Very concerned, very concerned.
"They are my king's subordinates, so they don't count." Feng Zhanxiu said quietly, raising his hand abruptly.Xu was covering it up with his sleeves, only then did he see a jug of wine in his hand.
Mingzhu gritted her teeth and got up from the ground, only to find that her legs were already numb.She just got up, fell to the ground again, and cried out in pain, "Don't drink! Drinking too much will hurt your health!"
He wrinkled his brows tightly, his heart was in a state of confusion, he just raised his head and drank sullenly.
After drinking a bottle of wine, he slammed the jug on the ground.The jug suddenly fell apart and shattered into countless pieces.He walked up to her slowly, grabbed her from the ground, his vision blurred for a while, and he only regarded the person in front of him as her.
"Why don't you let me drink? You are just a maid, believe it or not, I will crush you to death right now!" Feng Zhanxiu asked disdainfully with a gloomy expression.The big palm holding her wrist became more and more forceful, only to hear her bones creaking, as if they were about to break.
Mingzhu looked at him stubbornly, neither begging for mercy nor crying out for pain.
"So stubborn." His breath was cloudy with the smell of alcohol, but a little gentle.
Mingzhu clenched her fists, and finally couldn't help but said, "If possible, I care about the prince!"
"You?" Feng Zhanxiu narrowed his eyes and looked at her carefully.
Through her eyes, look into her bright eyes, as if looking at another person.He raised the corners of his lips, and his laughter was a bit melancholy, "Someone once told me that he cared about me. But that person didn't keep his word. This king hates breaking his promise, so I don't believe it anymore."
Feng Zhanxiu.Feng Zhanxiu.Feng Zhanxiu.Mingzhu shouted silently, tears streaming down her eyes.Can't stop anymore.
"Why are you crying, little maid." He stared at her tears curiously, and kissed her tear-wet face in admiration.
His handsome face gradually suppressed, Mingzhu sobbed silently.
Feng Zhanxiu raised his head and said in a muffled voice, "Tears are salty, crying so ugly, it's the same as that person crying. Don't cry, this king hates it the most."
Mingzhu was confused by his drunken and childish words, so she could only say "En".
"My lord, I'll help you back to the palace." She wiped away her tears indiscriminately, and reached out to support him.
Feng Zhanxiu frowned stubbornly, and said firmly, "This king is going somewhere."
※※※
It was late at night, and the palace was a bit gloomy, except for the guards who were closely patrolling.The eunuchs and maids escaped again and fell asleep with lingering fear.No one knows when his head will move, maybe the next second, maybe tomorrow.Such a day is too unstable and frightening.
Mingzhu was hugged by Feng Zhanxiu, and she stumbled forward.
"Actually, if this king is alone, this king would not dare to come here. Hehe. Actually, you know what, this king..." Along the way, Feng Zhanxiu spoke nonsense in a daze, it seems that he really deserved it. drunk.But why was he still so unhappy when he was drunk?
Doesn't wine mean that you can forget everything after drinking it?
Why, he is in such pain.
Mingzhu looked around, but found that she seemed to have been on this road before.Looking up, there is a cold palace in front of you.Huh?Isn't that the cold palace?She remembered that she had come here by mistake before.At that time, she met Eunuch De here, and Eunuch De scolded her not to stay here.
What ulterior secret is hidden in this palace?
Also, why does she have a strange feeling about this palace?
Mingzhu supported Feng Zhanxiu and slowly approached the palace, she turned her head and said, "My lord, this is the cold palace."
"Lenggong. This king is going to come to this cold palace." Feng Zhanxiu let go of her, and walked into the cold palace unsteadily, his lonely figure seemed to be submerged in this cold palace.
The cold wind blew, blowing his black hair.
Mingzhu stood not far behind him, and asked softly again, "My lord, why did you come here?"
"This king once lived here." His distant voice floated slowly, but it was so clear.
Mingzhu was startled, lived here?He lived in this cold palace?She couldn't help thinking of his life experience, he said that his mother was burned alive, he said that his father was pierced by random arrows, and even his heart was gouged out.But she still doesn't know who his father and mother are.
He also said that the thing his mother regretted most was giving birth to him.
What kind of past did he have?
Feng Zhanxiu looked at the dark and gloomy palace, and said solemnly, "I dare not come here. In fact, I am a coward, hehe, a coward."
He paused, but the male voice seemed to be crying.
"She said here that the thing she regrets the most is that she gave birth to me."
"She also said that the last person she wanted to see was me because she hated me."
"Because I... because I am..."
Mingzhu's heart seemed to be squeezed tightly in the hands, the pain was so painful that she was suffocating.She stepped forward suddenly, her steps were messy, and she hugged him desperately.From behind him, hugged him tightly, and said anxiously, "No, you heard it wrong. You are dreaming, a nightmare. She didn't say that, she actually said..."
"She said she loves you very much, more than anyone else in the world, deeply in love with you."
"Because you look like the person she loves, she is proud. She is very happy to have a son like you. She said that when you were born, she hugged you and cried with joy, thanking God for giving you to her , her life is full of sunshine because of you."
"That's what she actually wanted to tell you."
"But you got it wrong."
Mingzhu pressed her face against his back, every sentence, every word, she spoke her heart.
Whether it's family, friendship, or love, she is indifferent.
Because she actually has nothing, from the beginning of memory, there is only one person.Eat alone, sleep alone, and be in a daze alone.You can do a lot of things when you are alone.But still hearing those emotions about love, so she wants to know who her parents are.
Although, although she doesn't even have parents.
It doesn't matter, you will always get a little bit.
As long as you meet that person, you will always get it.
Feng Zhanxiu was so drunk that he turned around slowly and looked down at her in a daze.His handsome face was still as heroic as ever, but there was infinite melancholy in his brows.He raised the corners of his lips and smiled like a child, smiling so brightly that Pearl had the thought of crying.
"Really?" He asked hoarsely, his eyes sparkling.
Without any hesitation, Mingzhu nodded firmly, dazedly, "Really."
"It turned out to be a nightmare." Feng Zhanxiu said with a light smile, his body sank, and he leaned on her.He didn't move, and whispered in her ear, "That's great, it turned out to be a nightmare."
"En." Mingzhu gently stroked him, comforting a lost child, "When you are sad, cry."
"I can't cry." He closed his eyes and said regretfully.
He can't even cry.Mingzhu swallowed her sourness with a smile, and said softly, "Hug, it won't be sad."
Feng Zhanxiu finally fell asleep, breathing steadily.
But Mingzhu froze in place, and in an instant, the deep-seated memory began to wake up.She remembered the sporadic images, and also remembered that night, and they were like tonight.As a child, she endured her fear, walked up to him, and hugged him.
He turned and squatted down in front of her, and said with a smile, "You read it wrong. I didn't cry."
She pointed to his heart and shook her head, "You are crying here."
He froze and hugged her tightly, who was still a child.
He asked her what's your name.She replied, my name is Ye Mingzhu.She asked, why are you crying.He replied, because there is a person living here, but I can't take that person away.She nodded eagerly, and said childishly, it's okay, you can take me away.
But later, only Dong Xiaotian and him remained in her memory.
Because Dong Xiaotian said, Mingzhu, you can't play with that person or talk to that person, otherwise, I won't play with you anymore.And the father, the father will also be unhappy.If the father is not happy, he will kill him.Do you understand it?So when I saw him, I ran away.
It turned out to be the case.
Mingzhu put his arm across her shoulder with one hand, and carried him back to Pingle Palace with difficulty.
I'm sorry, it turned out that I forgot you.
Sorry, never again.
sorry Sorry.
※※※
Shuri, Mingzhu woke up early.Quietly walked into the bedroom, glanced at Feng Zhanxiu, and found that he was still sleeping.She covered the quilt for him, squeezed the corner of the quilt again, and then turned to leave.Mingzhu hurried out of Pingle Palace, but went to find Eunuch De.Because she wants to know the truth of the matter.
He said that he once lived in that cold palace, and his mother used to live there too.
Who are his father and mother?
Could it be that he is a royal descendant of the Daxing Dynasty?
With countless questions in her mind, Mingzhu searched for her father-in-law all the way.
"Eunuch De? He's heading in this direction." The old mother in the palace said kindly.
"Thank you Mammy." Mingzhu helped her up and thanked her, then turned and hurried towards the direction Mammy pointed.She was even more suspicious. Isn't this direction the direction leading to that cold palace?
In front of the bleak cold palace, the father-in-law is alone.
Mingzhu panted and ran towards him, and stopped when she got behind him. She asked softly, "Eunuch De, I want to know who lived here before."
"There used to be a little princess from the East Prisoner Kingdom living here." Eunuch De said in a deep voice, feeling very emotional, "She is a kind princess."
Mingzhu frowned, "Eastern prisoners?"
"During the time of the ancestor emperor, the Daxing Dynasty was called the East Prisoner Kingdom." Eunuch De squinted his eyes and recalled the past, "At that time, the tyrants of the Huangfu Dynasty fought and killed the people, making life difficult for the people. There was a king who unified this continent. , he is kind and generous, deeply loved by his people.”
"It's just that he recruits girls from all over the world to enter the palace every year. According to legend, all the beautiful girls who enter the palace die, crazy, and none of them end well. Terrible cries are often heard in the palace. Those eunuchs and maids They said it was haunted. The ancestor emperor pitied the people, but in desperation he married the little princess."
Mingzhu listened intently, "What happened next?"
"Later..." Eunuch De looked at the cold palace blankly, and said slowly, "There is no later."
Mingzhu stared, and asked with a trembling voice, "In the end, the king was pierced by random arrows. And the little princess was burned to death. Could it be that both of them died because of the ancestor emperor?"
"How did you know?" Eunuch De turned his head in horror and asked in surprise, "Who told you?"
Mingzhu stopped talking, feeling uncomfortable for a while.
No wonder you hate the Daxing Dynasty so much, it turns out that's the case.
"Eunuch De, the prince should wake up." Mingzhu bowed deeply to him, turned around and ran back to Pingle Palace.She suddenly realized that even if she couldn't find her own body, she should rely on other people's body to take good care of him.It doesn't matter if you have to pass through someone else's body for the rest of your life.
Mingzhu ran wildly all the way, she ran so fast that her heart almost jumped out of her throat.Why did she forget so many things? In fact, he has been waiting for her for a long time.It was from the beginning, that's why he firmly denied it, denied that he liked Liu Shuiyao.
Deep in the palace, a thin figure was running sullenly.The eunuchs and maids passing by looked back curiously, wondering at her crazy behavior.Someone recognized her, and said in perplexity, "Why? Isn't this Pearl? What is she running for? In such a hurry?"
"Could it be that the King of War punished her again?" The people beside him immediately agreed.
"Don't talk nonsense!"
"..."
Mingzhu wiped away tears indiscriminately, it turned out that laughing and crying would also be very sad.
He didn't lie to her.
On the contrary, the person who deceived him was himself.
I'm sorry, Feng Zhanxiu, I didn't keep my promise.I even forgot about you when you came to take me away.You hate people who don't keep their word, that's why you treat me like that.Sorry, from now on, I will never forget you again.No matter what happens, I will never forget you.
There was Pingle Palace in front of her. She slowed down and tidied up her appearance outside Pingle Palace.Taking a deep breath, raised the most beautiful smile, and walked into the palace to face him.Even with someone else's body, relying on someone else's eyes, it doesn't matter, she will always be with him.
Mingzhu smiled brightly and finally walked into Pingle Palace.
In the bedroom of Pingle Palace, Zhongli and the twelve cavalrymen had already rushed back to their orders.Yun Ni waited on Feng Zhanxiu to get up and change clothes. After washing and combing, his eagle eyes glanced at the crowd coldly, as if looking for someone.But he couldn't find it all the time, so he asked in a deep voice, "Where is that little maid?"
"Going back to the prince, I didn't see her just now. I guess she's not in Pingle Palace..." Yun Ni replied softly.
In the middle of her words, Feng Zhanxiu suddenly said in a haze, "I want to see her, go find her immediately!"
Yun Ni was stunned, everyone was silent, and the twelve cavalrymen were even more surprised.
what's up?Why does the prince seem to be particularly interested in that little palace lady now?
Zhong Li rubbed Yun Ni with the handle of the knife calmly, and Yun Ni regained consciousness, and immediately responded, "Yes! This subordinate will go now!" After she finished speaking, she turned around and left.
But as soon as he turned around, he saw a little maid running towards the bedroom with her head bowed.
With the tray in both hands, Mingzhu cautiously walked into the bedroom.Maybe it was because she was too nervous, a fetter under her feet, she panicked, let out a soft cry, and fell forward.In an instant, someone rushed to her side like the wind, stretched out his long arms, protected her in his arms, and stabilized the tray in her hand.
His familiar aura instantly surrounded her, and she felt an inexplicable sense of relief.
"Are you injured?" Feng Zhanxiu slowly let go of his hand, looked down at her, but only saw her drooping head.
Mingzhu shook her head and replied in a low voice, "No, no..."
Feng Zhanxiu then withdrew his hand and sat back in the chair.
Everyone was completely stunned.
This, this, what is the situation?The master would actually protect a little maid?
"The king is hungry." Feng Zhanxiu glanced at her and ordered.
Because she almost fell down earlier, Mingzhu was undecided and became more and more nervous.Her steps are very small, so small that they are like stepping on ants.Seeing this, Feng Zhanxiu couldn't help chuckling, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I won't let you fall. Why are you walking so slowly?"
"I'm afraid the porridge will be spilled." Mingzhu said with some embarrassment, "Today is scallop porridge, and I started cooking it in the morning."
Feng Zhanxiu directly reached out to take the bowl of porridge, picked up a spoon, took a spoonful, and drank it slowly.He looked a little dignified, which made Mingzhu feel relieved.Before she went to find Eunuch De just now, she cooked scallop porridge.When she came back, the porridge was just ready.The scallops taste very fresh, but she still put pepper.
Maybe, maybe this would make him feel a little warmer.
Because he said that there is only one person in this world who can put pepper.Even if it was just a mistake, it made her another one and only in this world.She is willing to make fried rice with peppered eggs, clear porridge, scallop porridge for him all her life... and other things, more things.
"How is it?" Mingzhu looked up at him and couldn't help asking.
Feng Zhanxiu held the porridge bowl in one hand and the spoon in the other, and did not speak for a long time.
Mingzhu frowned, and thought to herself: No way, isn’t it delicious?She had no choice but to say honestly, "I'm sorry, my lord, this is my first time cooking scallop porridge, I..."
"The first time you cooked something, you also brought it to the prince? What are you a prince? Experimental product?" Yun Ni was worried about him, not caring about other things, and reprimanded him in a cold voice.
Feng Zhanxiu only glanced at Yun Ni from the corner of his eye, and then met the little maid in front of her who lowered her head, and said in a deep voice, "This is the first time?"
"En—" She nodded and responded with difficulty.
Feng Zhanxiu smiled lightly, "I didn't say it was bad. I like it very much."
"Really?" Mingzhu raised her head happily and asked in a low voice.
"Really." He continued to drink porridge.
Mingzhu looked at him and smiled happily, a sweet feeling came to her heart.
Yes, the first time, too many firsts, all because of you.It was the first time that I found myself loving him so much, the first time I learned to love someone, the first time I desperately wanted to be with him, and the first time I cooked scallop porridge.I hope there will be more firsts in the future, all about you.
Everyone hadn't recovered from the dazed state, and looked at the two blankly.The prince not only protected the little maid, but even smiled at the little maid.The prince has always been indifferent to food, not to mention liking it, not to mention hating it, but the prince said he likes it, and he likes the scallop porridge made by the little maid for the first time.
God!It's a miracle!
Could it be red rain outside?
Yun Ni lowered her head silently, and Zhongli noticed that her eyes were reddish.The twelve cavalry couldn't help turning their heads to look outside the hall, the sun was shining brightly.
Is it because spring is here?
A bowl of porridge was eaten slowly, but it was all eaten up.
Feng Zhanxiu put down the porridge bowl, and when he looked up, someone approached his mouth with a towel.He froze for a moment, then stared at her and saw that she was wiping the corner of her mouth for him.An inexplicable feeling hovered in my heart.He suddenly reached out and held her hand, "Is there any more tomorrow?"
"Yes." Mingzhu replied with a smile, raising the corners of her lips.
Only then did Feng Zhanxiu let go of her hand, and then asked in a deep voice, "Did you find it?"
Everyone was already tongue-tied, and it was only after hearing his question that they came back to their senses.
Zhongli clasped his fists and said, "My lord, I have sent people to chase after him. According to the news reported by the spies, Emperor Xiao fled to Daicheng."
Mingzhu tensed up when she heard Zhongli say that.
Feng Zhanxiu glanced at her from the corner of his eye, noticing her strangeness, and slightly raised his forehead, "What else?"
"My lord, my subordinates haven't found it yet." Yiyue replied with her head down, blaming herself, "My subordinates are incompetent, please punish me."
"This subordinate is incompetent, please punish him!" The twelve cavalrymen knelt down on the ground one after another.
Feng Zhanxiu's eagle eyes swept across the crowd, and he didn't speak for a long while.His eyelids drooped slightly, and he shouted in a low voice, "This king will punish you to clean up the imperial garden."
What?What kind of punishment is this?Everyone looked at each other and reluctantly agreed, "Yes!"
A group of people got up and strode out of the hall.
Feng Zhan Shuhei looked ahead, and said quietly, "You all go down."
"Yes!" Zhongli immediately echoed, and when he took a step, he gathered energy between his fingers and flicked towards Yunni.Yun Ni regained consciousness in an instant, and only then did she react.She cupped her fists and bowed, silently followed behind Zhongli, and walked out of the bedroom.When the two left the dormitory, Yun Ni stopped and looked at Zhong Li in front of her.
"Thank you for what happened just now." She thanked softly.
Zhongli also stopped, looked sideways and said, "You like Wang Ye."
"I didn't!" Yun Ni flatly denied, her hands under her sleeves clenched into fists unconsciously.
Zhongli turned back to stare at her, and said lightly, "Some marriages don't belong to me, so it's useless to force them." His eyes sharply caught her momentary loss of consciousness.He calmly withdrew his gaze and walked towards the end of the corridor, "Miss is about to wake up, master should be very happy."
Yun Ni watched his figure disappear, but her eyes were blank.
In the bedroom, a group of people walked cleanly, only the two of them were left.
Only then did Mingzhu feel a bit awkward being alone like this, after all last night they... wait, if he asked, what would she say?oops!Mingzhu frowned in annoyance, her thoughts were in a mess.Please, please, he must not ask!She hasn't figured out how to answer it yet!
"Yesterday..." Feng Zhanxiu suddenly spit out two words, which meant that which pot should be lifted if the pot is not opened.
Mingzhu was suddenly nervous, her ears pricked up.
"Did the king get drunk yesterday?" He asked in a deep voice.
Mingzhu nodded, "Yes, the prince is drunk, so I helped him back."
"That's right." He murmured.
Mingzhu waited for a while, but he didn't see him continuing the text, thinking that he must have sobered up and forgot everything about last night.That's fine, he doesn't remember the best.She immediately changed the subject, wanting to make his amnesia worse, "My lord, what do you want for lunch later?"
"Before, this king met a young man with black hair and black eyes." Feng Zhanxiu ignored her, stared at a certain place casually, and said to himself, "That young man came from the Western Regions and was trafficked by a merchant. He said he It's called Mingzhu, and the strange thing is that the young man called out my king's name."
Mingzhu tightened her clothes, and asked embarrassingly, "Maybe that young man has seen the prince before."
"This king only knows that this king has never seen him before." Feng Zhanxiu suddenly turned his head, staring at her, "Why don't you ask, what happened next."
Mingzhu felt her heart beat half a beat faster, and asked following his words, "What happened?"
Feng Zhanxiu smiled, and the corners of his lips raised a curve, "He said that someone entrusted him with a dream, and the person in the dream asked him to tell this king something. The ridiculous thing is that this king believed it, and let him sleep every day. Because this king I have never dreamed of that person before, I hope that young man can dream more often."
"The person who entrusted the dream must be someone important to the prince?" Mingzhu asked softly, her eyes gradually becoming sour.
Feng Zhanxiu was silent for a long time, and said calmly, "It doesn't matter whether it's important or not." The moonlight gathered in his eyes, and he asked in a concentrated voice, "You answer me, is there someone who entrusted you with a dream? "
"..." Mingzhu froze in place, faltering.
"Why do your eyes look so alike." He slowly stretched out his hand, pinched her chin and lifted it up, making her gaze directly at him, preventing her from escaping at all.
Inside Mingzhu's body, there seemed to be two people arguing.A person warned her, you can't say it, if you say it, you will go back to modern times.Can't be by his side anymore.The other person is encouraging her, say, Ye, tell him, you are the pearl.Tell him quickly.
She narrowed her eyes with a headache, and said tremblingly, "No one entrusted me with dreams, I just... I just..."
Feng Zhanxiu's expression was the same, but he was a little sad, "It's just what."
"I just think the lord is like my brother." She was quick to think and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother?" Feng Zhanxiu read these words strangely, his eyes were also unfamiliar, "How do you look like it?"
"Where does it look like? It feels...it feels very similar..." she hesitated.
Feng Zhanxiu continued to ask, "What about others?"
"Dead." Mingzhu really couldn't make it up, so she simply said she was dead.
Feng Zhanxiu's troubled expression gradually became brighter, and he suddenly moved, stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly.His hug was domineering and gentle, as if he was caring for her. He whispered in her ear, "Do you love your brother very much?"
"En." Mingzhu replied dully.
"This king allows you to treat this king as your elder brother." He said arrogantly.
Mingzhu was startled, and hugged him back.
In May, the long summer heat is ushered in, and the temperature is gradually rising.
The days are stretched infinitely, and it is Xu time when it gets dark.
In the city of Daicheng, the mansion of the state official has been occupied by Emperor Xiao and the Empress.They fled from the capital, and they ran day and night for a full month before arriving at Daicheng.
In the blink of an eye, from April to May.
The situation is becoming more and more chaotic.
In the main hall of the mansion, Dong Xiaotian and the ministers are discussing important matters.
Everyone looked dignified, and the atmosphere was even more stalemate.
Prime Minister Liu Qing sat on the side, and said in a deep voice, "Feng Zhanxiu has already captured Daxing and occupied the capital. But now, Prince Rui is silent, and he has not seen any action. There must be a conspiracy. Your Majesty, according to the old minister In my opinion, I am afraid that he is about to attack. The whole city is strictly on guard, and we must defend this place!"
"What the prime minister said is true!" Several ministers echoed.
"Your Majesty, I have always had a question in my mind, which has troubled me for many years." The person who spoke was Jiang Zaiyuan, a senior official who had been an official for many years.
Dong Xiaotian sat in the middle and upright, looked up at Jiang Shangshu, and asked slowly, "What questions does Jiang Aiqing have?"
"Feng Zhanxiu was strongly recommended by Prime Minister Liu to become an official in the court back then, but his life experience is completely unknown, he has no father and no mother. I just want to know the background of Feng Zhanxiu, and I don't know if the Prime Minister can explain it to me. "Jiang Zaiyuan bowed, looking at Prime Minister Liu Qing with his old eyes.
In fact, this question also troubled Dong Xiaotian, he glanced at Liu Qing, "Prime Minister, I really want to know."
Liu Qing squinted her eyes, recalled the past, and said thoughtfully, "Back then, the old man was ordered by the late emperor to make a private visit in disguise. Unexpectedly, he was assassinated by thieves on the way, and the old man's subordinates were killed and injured. In the end, the old man fell into the water and fell into a coma. When the old man woke up, it was Feng Zhanxiu who rescued the old man. After that, he escorted the old man all the way. The old man saw that he was capable of writing and martial arts, and he was courageous and brave, so he recommended the late emperor."
"Prime Minister, don't you think it's too coincidental?" Jiang Zaiyuan said.
"The old man didn't think much about it at the time, it was the old man's mistake." Liu Qing lowered her head and said ashamedly.
In fact, back then, he still had selfish intentions and wanted to set up his own party members in the court.After Feng Zhanxiu entered the court, he did not disappoint him, he won many battles and was invincible.Even later, he was valued more by the first emperor, and he granted the vassal land as a vassal king.As a result, the evolution of things did not go as expected.
Feng Zhanxiu was indifferent and conceited, and even ignored him.
He really regrets himself!
At this time, a travel-stained soldier rushed in from outside the hall.The soldier hastily knelt down on the ground, and reported back, "Your Majesty! According to reports, the city of Shu has been occupied by the troops of Nanchang Kingdom. Prince Rui has long since died."
What?Everyone was shocked.
"Your Majesty!" Jiang Zaiyuan stood up abruptly, bowed and said, "That Feng Zhanxiu had planned to rebel, I'm afraid he is a spy of Nanchang Kingdom. He has been undercover for many years, and he just wanted to bring Daxing down without a single soldier. Nanchang Her Majesty the Empress of China really has a lot of ambitions, she wants to dominate the Nine Kingdoms Continent!"
Dong Xiaotian was stunned, he never expected such an incident to happen suddenly.
Shu City was occupied by troops from Nanchang Kingdom, and Prince Rui was even killed.If all this is a conspiracy for many years, then what is the identity of Feng Zhanxiu?this is too scary!Not only was he being toyed with and applauded, even the dead Pearl was just toyed with and applauded by him.
"I want to be quiet! You all back down!" Dong Xiaotian murmured.
"emperor……"
He frowned, and shouted, "Back off!"
"Resignation!" All the ministers stood up and had no choice but to retreat.
All the ministers left the hall and saw Liu Shuiyao walking towards them with the support of several maids, and immediately bowed to each other, "Empress Empress!"
Liu Shuiyao is about to give birth, her belly looks more and more round.She saw the ministers frowning from a distance, and she knew that everyone was worried and depressed.She walked to the front of the hall with a smile, and said softly, "Ministers, you don't need to be polite, I ordered someone to stew some sweet soup, everyone go and taste it."
"Thank you, ma'am." The ministers thanked again and retreated one after another.
Liu Qing warned, "Be careful."
Liu Shuiyao nodded, watching them leave one by one.After the shadow disappeared, he took the bowl of sweet soup from Qiaoer's hand and walked slowly into the hall.
"Didn't I let you all..." Dong Xiaotian was thinking with his back turned away, when he heard footsteps approaching, he thought it was the ministers turning back.Without even thinking about it, he yelled sharply, and when he turned around, he saw Liu Shuiyao approaching him with a bowl of sweet soup.He stopped immediately, and his voice was a little lower, "Why are you here?"
Liu Shuiyao smiled slightly, "Your Majesty, the weather is a bit hot, drink a bowl of sweet soup to reduce the fire."
"You are about to give birth, why are you still walking here and there? Can't you let me relax?" Dong Xiaotian took the bowl with one hand and put it aside.Holding her with the other hand, he helped her to a chair and sat down.
Instead, Liu Shuiyao grabbed his hand and asked softly, "Your Majesty, what happened?"
"Prince Rui is dead." Dong Xiaotian stared at her with his head down, and said quietly, "Feng Zhanxiu is a spy of Nanchang Kingdom."
spy?Feng Zhanxiu?how is this possible?
Liu Shuiyao was flustered and dizzy, "How is it possible? Impossible!"
"You don't believe it? But this is the truth." Dong Xiaotian let go of her hand, "He has been planning for many years and is just waiting for the present."
Liu Shuiyao shook her head and shouted, grabbing his hand again, "No! I don't believe it!"
"Believe it or not." Dong Xiaotian laughed and couldn't help coughing.She believed him, and now even his wife believed him, so let's all believe him.
"Xiaotian...I..." Liu Shuiyao felt a burst of pain, and she reached out to caress her stomach.Just as he was about to stand up, his feet went limp and his whole body collapsed to the ground.
Dong Xiaotian turned around in astonishment, ran to her side in a big stride, and picked her up, "Shuiyao!"
"Xiaotian, it hurts so much..." Liu Shuiyao cried out in pain as she grabbed him tightly.
Dong Xiaotian shouted anxiously, "Come on! Come on!"
Immediately, Mrs. Wen, who delivered the baby, was passed into the mansion.
In the wing room, from time to time, there was the encouraging sound of Mrs. Wen, as well as Liu Shuiyao's heart-piercing shouts.Outside the wing room, Dong Xiaotian and other ministers waited anxiously.When a woman gives birth to a child, it is no different from walking through the gate of hell.Several hours passed, but Liu Shuiyao still failed to give birth to a dragon son.
This panicked everyone, only to see pots of blood pouring out.
Several times, Dong Xiaotian wanted to rush in, but was stopped by the ministers, "Your Majesty, don't enter!"
He had no choice but to stop and reached out to beat the wall.
Liu Qing is an old woman, so she dotes on Liu Shuiyao.He ran out of the room and knelt down to God, crying, and murmured, "This old man has done many wrong things and committed many sins in his life. But this old man is just such a daughter, and I beg God to bless Yao'er and the child to be safe." Nothing! The old man is willing to accept the punishment, please don't blame Shuiyao and the child!"
He kowtowed and begged.
Suddenly, Liu Shuiyao yelled.
In the next second, the cry of the baby resounded throughout the hall, "Wow——"
Wen Po was sweating profusely, and shouted happily, "Congratulations, you are a prince! Congratulations, you are a prince!"
Everyone hurriedly knelt down on the ground and shouted loudly, "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the empress, and joy to the prince!"
Dong Xiaotian ignored the minister and hurried into the room.
"Your Majesty!" Wen Po carried the infant baby in front of Dong Xiaotian.
With trembling hands, Dong Xiaotian hugged the child.When he lowered his head, he saw that the child's face was flushed, and his appearance was very cute.He couldn't help being excited, and kissed the child's little face.He hugged the child, walked to the edge of the bed, and whispered, "Thank you for your hard work, look, this is my child and yours."
"Your Majesty..." Liu Shuiyao turned her head to look at the child, but found that she had no strength in her body.He closed his eyes and passed out.
"Shuiyao? Shuiyao?" Seeing that she was unconscious, Dong Xiaotian hurriedly shouted, "Come on! Come on!"
……
After the imperial physician's treatment, Liu Shuiyao was finally out of danger.However, this also left the root of the disease.I'm afraid I won't live long due to blood loss.
In May of the Xiao Year, the queen gave birth to a prince in Daicheng, named Xuan Yi.
※※※
The capital, the palace.
In Pingle Palace, Feng Zhanxiu rested in the study.Of course, accompanied by the court lady Zhu Er.
During these days, Zhu'er has almost become a popular person beside the King of War.How red is it?Even Yun Ni, who is in charge of the body, is far behind!What's even more strange is that Zhan Wang listened to her very much.How obedient are you?For example, the King of War wants to drink, but as long as Zhu Er murmurs, the King of War will stop drinking.
It's like a wife controlling her husband!
Everyone in the palace thought that Zhu'er had become a phoenix by flying up the branch, but they didn't expect that the King of Zhan would not let her sleep with her.
As time goes by, rumors and rumors spread naturally.
It has long been heard that the King of War once doted on a beautiful boy, has the prince changed his orientation?Or, because the prince still has a princess in his heart, he can't tolerate other women?All in all, all in all, no one knows why.However, the person involved didn't mind at all and had a good time.
""Nvjing"? The prince also reads "Nvjing"?" Mingzhu walked up to him boredly, took a look, but found a copy of "Nvjing" on the table.
Feng Zhanxiu glanced at the "Nvjing", and then looked at her again, "Do you think this king will read this kind of book?"
"No." She answered simply and without ambiguity.
Look at such a big man like him, if you read "Nv Jing", it is also strange.Mingzhu thought about it for a second, and thought of those luscious books.Hmph, he just loves to read those coloring books.Her eyes wandered over his face, and she frowned suddenly in annoyance.This man has nothing to do, what is he looking so good-looking for?
It's disgusting, it's disgusting.
After Feng Zhanxiu stared at her leisurely, he asked in a deep voice, "Little maid, what are you looking at?"
"Uh..." Mingzhu was taken aback, and hastily reached out to pick up the book, pretending to flip through a few pages, and said falteringly, "I'm reading "The Classic of Women."
He propped his head on one hand, exuding a lazy air all over his body, "You will too?"
"Underestimate me? Of course I will!" Mingzhu gritted her teeth and gave him a sideways glance, and said from memory, "Don't walk around, don't dangle around, don't show your teeth when you smile, and don't speak too loudly... anyway... That means, almost."
Feng Zhanxiu nodded, "You don't match at all, I think you will definitely not be able to marry in the future."
"Nonsense!" she roared angrily.
"So fierce." He sighed, his eyes full of sarcasm.
Looking at his handsome face, Mingzhu said resolutely, "I won't marry in the future, I will definitely be with you."
"That's not okay, how can you not marry someone? Tell me, is there someone you like?" Feng Zhanxiu stared at her and asked.
Mingzhu blushed when he stared at her like this, "No."
"If there is none, then there is none. Why are you blushing?" He didn't show any face, and continued to ask, "Could it be that you are shy? Tell me, is there any?"
Mingzhu bit her lip and stared at him, "No."
"My lord thinks it's time for you to get married. How about I find someone for you?" He transformed into a Yuelao, wanting to hold a red line.
Mingzhu said speechlessly, "Will the lord want to ask me next, what do you think of General Zhongli?"
"How do you know? This king really thinks Zhongli is good. If you like it, I will marry you tonight!" Feng Zhanxiu asked her what she meant, but his face was sincere.
The idiot!Mingzhu cursed in her heart, and immediately knelt down.
"What are you doing?" Feng Zhanxiu asked puzzled.
Mingzhu lowered her head and said, "I won't marry! I won't marry! I don't like people leaving!"
"Then who do you like? You tell this king!" He said, reaching out to help her up.
I like you!You idiot!Mingzhu felt that she was going crazy.
At this moment, Zhongli rushed into the palace slowly, "Report to the prince! I just got the news that Liu Shuiyao gave birth to the prince successfully in Daicheng!"
Mingzhu hurriedly turned her head to look at Zhongli, and shouted in surprise, "Really? You gave birth to a prince?"
"En!" Zhongli responded, nodding his forehead.
Mingzhu shouted with joy, grabbed Feng Zhanxiu's wrist and shook it vigorously, shouting excitedly, "My lord, did you hear that? The queen gave birth to a little prince! She gave birth to a very cute little prince!" Those are the flesh and blood of Liu Shuiyao and Dong Xiaotian, if counted by seniority, Feng Zhanxiu should be the uncle of the little prince?
(End of this chapter)
"My lord..." Mingzhu choked up, shook her head and said, "It's not like that, it's not."
How can a murderer forget himself?It's just an escape move.After a murder, what else is there besides desolation and loneliness?Use killing to paralyze yourself, and use killing to remind yourself that hatred needs to spread and grow.He believes in hatred in order to live.
When the belief is gone, what is the difference between the living and the dead?
"There are still many people... who care about the prince, many, many people." Mingzhu said distressedly.
Feng Zhanxiu took a step forward, his tall body was a little shaky, and he laughed loudly, "Who? Who cares about this king? There are many, many people? This king can't see it! It's pitch black here!"
"General Zhongli, General Yun Ni, and many more." Mingzhu listed in a panic.
There is a voice that keeps shouting: I care about you, I care about you very much.Very concerned, very concerned.
"They are my king's subordinates, so they don't count." Feng Zhanxiu said quietly, raising his hand abruptly.Xu was covering it up with his sleeves, only then did he see a jug of wine in his hand.
Mingzhu gritted her teeth and got up from the ground, only to find that her legs were already numb.She just got up, fell to the ground again, and cried out in pain, "Don't drink! Drinking too much will hurt your health!"
He wrinkled his brows tightly, his heart was in a state of confusion, he just raised his head and drank sullenly.
After drinking a bottle of wine, he slammed the jug on the ground.The jug suddenly fell apart and shattered into countless pieces.He walked up to her slowly, grabbed her from the ground, his vision blurred for a while, and he only regarded the person in front of him as her.
"Why don't you let me drink? You are just a maid, believe it or not, I will crush you to death right now!" Feng Zhanxiu asked disdainfully with a gloomy expression.The big palm holding her wrist became more and more forceful, only to hear her bones creaking, as if they were about to break.
Mingzhu looked at him stubbornly, neither begging for mercy nor crying out for pain.
"So stubborn." His breath was cloudy with the smell of alcohol, but a little gentle.
Mingzhu clenched her fists, and finally couldn't help but said, "If possible, I care about the prince!"
"You?" Feng Zhanxiu narrowed his eyes and looked at her carefully.
Through her eyes, look into her bright eyes, as if looking at another person.He raised the corners of his lips, and his laughter was a bit melancholy, "Someone once told me that he cared about me. But that person didn't keep his word. This king hates breaking his promise, so I don't believe it anymore."
Feng Zhanxiu.Feng Zhanxiu.Feng Zhanxiu.Mingzhu shouted silently, tears streaming down her eyes.Can't stop anymore.
"Why are you crying, little maid." He stared at her tears curiously, and kissed her tear-wet face in admiration.
His handsome face gradually suppressed, Mingzhu sobbed silently.
Feng Zhanxiu raised his head and said in a muffled voice, "Tears are salty, crying so ugly, it's the same as that person crying. Don't cry, this king hates it the most."
Mingzhu was confused by his drunken and childish words, so she could only say "En".
"My lord, I'll help you back to the palace." She wiped away her tears indiscriminately, and reached out to support him.
Feng Zhanxiu frowned stubbornly, and said firmly, "This king is going somewhere."
※※※
It was late at night, and the palace was a bit gloomy, except for the guards who were closely patrolling.The eunuchs and maids escaped again and fell asleep with lingering fear.No one knows when his head will move, maybe the next second, maybe tomorrow.Such a day is too unstable and frightening.
Mingzhu was hugged by Feng Zhanxiu, and she stumbled forward.
"Actually, if this king is alone, this king would not dare to come here. Hehe. Actually, you know what, this king..." Along the way, Feng Zhanxiu spoke nonsense in a daze, it seems that he really deserved it. drunk.But why was he still so unhappy when he was drunk?
Doesn't wine mean that you can forget everything after drinking it?
Why, he is in such pain.
Mingzhu looked around, but found that she seemed to have been on this road before.Looking up, there is a cold palace in front of you.Huh?Isn't that the cold palace?She remembered that she had come here by mistake before.At that time, she met Eunuch De here, and Eunuch De scolded her not to stay here.
What ulterior secret is hidden in this palace?
Also, why does she have a strange feeling about this palace?
Mingzhu supported Feng Zhanxiu and slowly approached the palace, she turned her head and said, "My lord, this is the cold palace."
"Lenggong. This king is going to come to this cold palace." Feng Zhanxiu let go of her, and walked into the cold palace unsteadily, his lonely figure seemed to be submerged in this cold palace.
The cold wind blew, blowing his black hair.
Mingzhu stood not far behind him, and asked softly again, "My lord, why did you come here?"
"This king once lived here." His distant voice floated slowly, but it was so clear.
Mingzhu was startled, lived here?He lived in this cold palace?She couldn't help thinking of his life experience, he said that his mother was burned alive, he said that his father was pierced by random arrows, and even his heart was gouged out.But she still doesn't know who his father and mother are.
He also said that the thing his mother regretted most was giving birth to him.
What kind of past did he have?
Feng Zhanxiu looked at the dark and gloomy palace, and said solemnly, "I dare not come here. In fact, I am a coward, hehe, a coward."
He paused, but the male voice seemed to be crying.
"She said here that the thing she regrets the most is that she gave birth to me."
"She also said that the last person she wanted to see was me because she hated me."
"Because I... because I am..."
Mingzhu's heart seemed to be squeezed tightly in the hands, the pain was so painful that she was suffocating.She stepped forward suddenly, her steps were messy, and she hugged him desperately.From behind him, hugged him tightly, and said anxiously, "No, you heard it wrong. You are dreaming, a nightmare. She didn't say that, she actually said..."
"She said she loves you very much, more than anyone else in the world, deeply in love with you."
"Because you look like the person she loves, she is proud. She is very happy to have a son like you. She said that when you were born, she hugged you and cried with joy, thanking God for giving you to her , her life is full of sunshine because of you."
"That's what she actually wanted to tell you."
"But you got it wrong."
Mingzhu pressed her face against his back, every sentence, every word, she spoke her heart.
Whether it's family, friendship, or love, she is indifferent.
Because she actually has nothing, from the beginning of memory, there is only one person.Eat alone, sleep alone, and be in a daze alone.You can do a lot of things when you are alone.But still hearing those emotions about love, so she wants to know who her parents are.
Although, although she doesn't even have parents.
It doesn't matter, you will always get a little bit.
As long as you meet that person, you will always get it.
Feng Zhanxiu was so drunk that he turned around slowly and looked down at her in a daze.His handsome face was still as heroic as ever, but there was infinite melancholy in his brows.He raised the corners of his lips and smiled like a child, smiling so brightly that Pearl had the thought of crying.
"Really?" He asked hoarsely, his eyes sparkling.
Without any hesitation, Mingzhu nodded firmly, dazedly, "Really."
"It turned out to be a nightmare." Feng Zhanxiu said with a light smile, his body sank, and he leaned on her.He didn't move, and whispered in her ear, "That's great, it turned out to be a nightmare."
"En." Mingzhu gently stroked him, comforting a lost child, "When you are sad, cry."
"I can't cry." He closed his eyes and said regretfully.
He can't even cry.Mingzhu swallowed her sourness with a smile, and said softly, "Hug, it won't be sad."
Feng Zhanxiu finally fell asleep, breathing steadily.
But Mingzhu froze in place, and in an instant, the deep-seated memory began to wake up.She remembered the sporadic images, and also remembered that night, and they were like tonight.As a child, she endured her fear, walked up to him, and hugged him.
He turned and squatted down in front of her, and said with a smile, "You read it wrong. I didn't cry."
She pointed to his heart and shook her head, "You are crying here."
He froze and hugged her tightly, who was still a child.
He asked her what's your name.She replied, my name is Ye Mingzhu.She asked, why are you crying.He replied, because there is a person living here, but I can't take that person away.She nodded eagerly, and said childishly, it's okay, you can take me away.
But later, only Dong Xiaotian and him remained in her memory.
Because Dong Xiaotian said, Mingzhu, you can't play with that person or talk to that person, otherwise, I won't play with you anymore.And the father, the father will also be unhappy.If the father is not happy, he will kill him.Do you understand it?So when I saw him, I ran away.
It turned out to be the case.
Mingzhu put his arm across her shoulder with one hand, and carried him back to Pingle Palace with difficulty.
I'm sorry, it turned out that I forgot you.
Sorry, never again.
sorry Sorry.
※※※
Shuri, Mingzhu woke up early.Quietly walked into the bedroom, glanced at Feng Zhanxiu, and found that he was still sleeping.She covered the quilt for him, squeezed the corner of the quilt again, and then turned to leave.Mingzhu hurried out of Pingle Palace, but went to find Eunuch De.Because she wants to know the truth of the matter.
He said that he once lived in that cold palace, and his mother used to live there too.
Who are his father and mother?
Could it be that he is a royal descendant of the Daxing Dynasty?
With countless questions in her mind, Mingzhu searched for her father-in-law all the way.
"Eunuch De? He's heading in this direction." The old mother in the palace said kindly.
"Thank you Mammy." Mingzhu helped her up and thanked her, then turned and hurried towards the direction Mammy pointed.She was even more suspicious. Isn't this direction the direction leading to that cold palace?
In front of the bleak cold palace, the father-in-law is alone.
Mingzhu panted and ran towards him, and stopped when she got behind him. She asked softly, "Eunuch De, I want to know who lived here before."
"There used to be a little princess from the East Prisoner Kingdom living here." Eunuch De said in a deep voice, feeling very emotional, "She is a kind princess."
Mingzhu frowned, "Eastern prisoners?"
"During the time of the ancestor emperor, the Daxing Dynasty was called the East Prisoner Kingdom." Eunuch De squinted his eyes and recalled the past, "At that time, the tyrants of the Huangfu Dynasty fought and killed the people, making life difficult for the people. There was a king who unified this continent. , he is kind and generous, deeply loved by his people.”
"It's just that he recruits girls from all over the world to enter the palace every year. According to legend, all the beautiful girls who enter the palace die, crazy, and none of them end well. Terrible cries are often heard in the palace. Those eunuchs and maids They said it was haunted. The ancestor emperor pitied the people, but in desperation he married the little princess."
Mingzhu listened intently, "What happened next?"
"Later..." Eunuch De looked at the cold palace blankly, and said slowly, "There is no later."
Mingzhu stared, and asked with a trembling voice, "In the end, the king was pierced by random arrows. And the little princess was burned to death. Could it be that both of them died because of the ancestor emperor?"
"How did you know?" Eunuch De turned his head in horror and asked in surprise, "Who told you?"
Mingzhu stopped talking, feeling uncomfortable for a while.
No wonder you hate the Daxing Dynasty so much, it turns out that's the case.
"Eunuch De, the prince should wake up." Mingzhu bowed deeply to him, turned around and ran back to Pingle Palace.She suddenly realized that even if she couldn't find her own body, she should rely on other people's body to take good care of him.It doesn't matter if you have to pass through someone else's body for the rest of your life.
Mingzhu ran wildly all the way, she ran so fast that her heart almost jumped out of her throat.Why did she forget so many things? In fact, he has been waiting for her for a long time.It was from the beginning, that's why he firmly denied it, denied that he liked Liu Shuiyao.
Deep in the palace, a thin figure was running sullenly.The eunuchs and maids passing by looked back curiously, wondering at her crazy behavior.Someone recognized her, and said in perplexity, "Why? Isn't this Pearl? What is she running for? In such a hurry?"
"Could it be that the King of War punished her again?" The people beside him immediately agreed.
"Don't talk nonsense!"
"..."
Mingzhu wiped away tears indiscriminately, it turned out that laughing and crying would also be very sad.
He didn't lie to her.
On the contrary, the person who deceived him was himself.
I'm sorry, Feng Zhanxiu, I didn't keep my promise.I even forgot about you when you came to take me away.You hate people who don't keep their word, that's why you treat me like that.Sorry, from now on, I will never forget you again.No matter what happens, I will never forget you.
There was Pingle Palace in front of her. She slowed down and tidied up her appearance outside Pingle Palace.Taking a deep breath, raised the most beautiful smile, and walked into the palace to face him.Even with someone else's body, relying on someone else's eyes, it doesn't matter, she will always be with him.
Mingzhu smiled brightly and finally walked into Pingle Palace.
In the bedroom of Pingle Palace, Zhongli and the twelve cavalrymen had already rushed back to their orders.Yun Ni waited on Feng Zhanxiu to get up and change clothes. After washing and combing, his eagle eyes glanced at the crowd coldly, as if looking for someone.But he couldn't find it all the time, so he asked in a deep voice, "Where is that little maid?"
"Going back to the prince, I didn't see her just now. I guess she's not in Pingle Palace..." Yun Ni replied softly.
In the middle of her words, Feng Zhanxiu suddenly said in a haze, "I want to see her, go find her immediately!"
Yun Ni was stunned, everyone was silent, and the twelve cavalrymen were even more surprised.
what's up?Why does the prince seem to be particularly interested in that little palace lady now?
Zhong Li rubbed Yun Ni with the handle of the knife calmly, and Yun Ni regained consciousness, and immediately responded, "Yes! This subordinate will go now!" After she finished speaking, she turned around and left.
But as soon as he turned around, he saw a little maid running towards the bedroom with her head bowed.
With the tray in both hands, Mingzhu cautiously walked into the bedroom.Maybe it was because she was too nervous, a fetter under her feet, she panicked, let out a soft cry, and fell forward.In an instant, someone rushed to her side like the wind, stretched out his long arms, protected her in his arms, and stabilized the tray in her hand.
His familiar aura instantly surrounded her, and she felt an inexplicable sense of relief.
"Are you injured?" Feng Zhanxiu slowly let go of his hand, looked down at her, but only saw her drooping head.
Mingzhu shook her head and replied in a low voice, "No, no..."
Feng Zhanxiu then withdrew his hand and sat back in the chair.
Everyone was completely stunned.
This, this, what is the situation?The master would actually protect a little maid?
"The king is hungry." Feng Zhanxiu glanced at her and ordered.
Because she almost fell down earlier, Mingzhu was undecided and became more and more nervous.Her steps are very small, so small that they are like stepping on ants.Seeing this, Feng Zhanxiu couldn't help chuckling, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I won't let you fall. Why are you walking so slowly?"
"I'm afraid the porridge will be spilled." Mingzhu said with some embarrassment, "Today is scallop porridge, and I started cooking it in the morning."
Feng Zhanxiu directly reached out to take the bowl of porridge, picked up a spoon, took a spoonful, and drank it slowly.He looked a little dignified, which made Mingzhu feel relieved.Before she went to find Eunuch De just now, she cooked scallop porridge.When she came back, the porridge was just ready.The scallops taste very fresh, but she still put pepper.
Maybe, maybe this would make him feel a little warmer.
Because he said that there is only one person in this world who can put pepper.Even if it was just a mistake, it made her another one and only in this world.She is willing to make fried rice with peppered eggs, clear porridge, scallop porridge for him all her life... and other things, more things.
"How is it?" Mingzhu looked up at him and couldn't help asking.
Feng Zhanxiu held the porridge bowl in one hand and the spoon in the other, and did not speak for a long time.
Mingzhu frowned, and thought to herself: No way, isn’t it delicious?She had no choice but to say honestly, "I'm sorry, my lord, this is my first time cooking scallop porridge, I..."
"The first time you cooked something, you also brought it to the prince? What are you a prince? Experimental product?" Yun Ni was worried about him, not caring about other things, and reprimanded him in a cold voice.
Feng Zhanxiu only glanced at Yun Ni from the corner of his eye, and then met the little maid in front of her who lowered her head, and said in a deep voice, "This is the first time?"
"En—" She nodded and responded with difficulty.
Feng Zhanxiu smiled lightly, "I didn't say it was bad. I like it very much."
"Really?" Mingzhu raised her head happily and asked in a low voice.
"Really." He continued to drink porridge.
Mingzhu looked at him and smiled happily, a sweet feeling came to her heart.
Yes, the first time, too many firsts, all because of you.It was the first time that I found myself loving him so much, the first time I learned to love someone, the first time I desperately wanted to be with him, and the first time I cooked scallop porridge.I hope there will be more firsts in the future, all about you.
Everyone hadn't recovered from the dazed state, and looked at the two blankly.The prince not only protected the little maid, but even smiled at the little maid.The prince has always been indifferent to food, not to mention liking it, not to mention hating it, but the prince said he likes it, and he likes the scallop porridge made by the little maid for the first time.
God!It's a miracle!
Could it be red rain outside?
Yun Ni lowered her head silently, and Zhongli noticed that her eyes were reddish.The twelve cavalry couldn't help turning their heads to look outside the hall, the sun was shining brightly.
Is it because spring is here?
A bowl of porridge was eaten slowly, but it was all eaten up.
Feng Zhanxiu put down the porridge bowl, and when he looked up, someone approached his mouth with a towel.He froze for a moment, then stared at her and saw that she was wiping the corner of her mouth for him.An inexplicable feeling hovered in my heart.He suddenly reached out and held her hand, "Is there any more tomorrow?"
"Yes." Mingzhu replied with a smile, raising the corners of her lips.
Only then did Feng Zhanxiu let go of her hand, and then asked in a deep voice, "Did you find it?"
Everyone was already tongue-tied, and it was only after hearing his question that they came back to their senses.
Zhongli clasped his fists and said, "My lord, I have sent people to chase after him. According to the news reported by the spies, Emperor Xiao fled to Daicheng."
Mingzhu tensed up when she heard Zhongli say that.
Feng Zhanxiu glanced at her from the corner of his eye, noticing her strangeness, and slightly raised his forehead, "What else?"
"My lord, my subordinates haven't found it yet." Yiyue replied with her head down, blaming herself, "My subordinates are incompetent, please punish me."
"This subordinate is incompetent, please punish him!" The twelve cavalrymen knelt down on the ground one after another.
Feng Zhanxiu's eagle eyes swept across the crowd, and he didn't speak for a long while.His eyelids drooped slightly, and he shouted in a low voice, "This king will punish you to clean up the imperial garden."
What?What kind of punishment is this?Everyone looked at each other and reluctantly agreed, "Yes!"
A group of people got up and strode out of the hall.
Feng Zhan Shuhei looked ahead, and said quietly, "You all go down."
"Yes!" Zhongli immediately echoed, and when he took a step, he gathered energy between his fingers and flicked towards Yunni.Yun Ni regained consciousness in an instant, and only then did she react.She cupped her fists and bowed, silently followed behind Zhongli, and walked out of the bedroom.When the two left the dormitory, Yun Ni stopped and looked at Zhong Li in front of her.
"Thank you for what happened just now." She thanked softly.
Zhongli also stopped, looked sideways and said, "You like Wang Ye."
"I didn't!" Yun Ni flatly denied, her hands under her sleeves clenched into fists unconsciously.
Zhongli turned back to stare at her, and said lightly, "Some marriages don't belong to me, so it's useless to force them." His eyes sharply caught her momentary loss of consciousness.He calmly withdrew his gaze and walked towards the end of the corridor, "Miss is about to wake up, master should be very happy."
Yun Ni watched his figure disappear, but her eyes were blank.
In the bedroom, a group of people walked cleanly, only the two of them were left.
Only then did Mingzhu feel a bit awkward being alone like this, after all last night they... wait, if he asked, what would she say?oops!Mingzhu frowned in annoyance, her thoughts were in a mess.Please, please, he must not ask!She hasn't figured out how to answer it yet!
"Yesterday..." Feng Zhanxiu suddenly spit out two words, which meant that which pot should be lifted if the pot is not opened.
Mingzhu was suddenly nervous, her ears pricked up.
"Did the king get drunk yesterday?" He asked in a deep voice.
Mingzhu nodded, "Yes, the prince is drunk, so I helped him back."
"That's right." He murmured.
Mingzhu waited for a while, but he didn't see him continuing the text, thinking that he must have sobered up and forgot everything about last night.That's fine, he doesn't remember the best.She immediately changed the subject, wanting to make his amnesia worse, "My lord, what do you want for lunch later?"
"Before, this king met a young man with black hair and black eyes." Feng Zhanxiu ignored her, stared at a certain place casually, and said to himself, "That young man came from the Western Regions and was trafficked by a merchant. He said he It's called Mingzhu, and the strange thing is that the young man called out my king's name."
Mingzhu tightened her clothes, and asked embarrassingly, "Maybe that young man has seen the prince before."
"This king only knows that this king has never seen him before." Feng Zhanxiu suddenly turned his head, staring at her, "Why don't you ask, what happened next."
Mingzhu felt her heart beat half a beat faster, and asked following his words, "What happened?"
Feng Zhanxiu smiled, and the corners of his lips raised a curve, "He said that someone entrusted him with a dream, and the person in the dream asked him to tell this king something. The ridiculous thing is that this king believed it, and let him sleep every day. Because this king I have never dreamed of that person before, I hope that young man can dream more often."
"The person who entrusted the dream must be someone important to the prince?" Mingzhu asked softly, her eyes gradually becoming sour.
Feng Zhanxiu was silent for a long time, and said calmly, "It doesn't matter whether it's important or not." The moonlight gathered in his eyes, and he asked in a concentrated voice, "You answer me, is there someone who entrusted you with a dream? "
"..." Mingzhu froze in place, faltering.
"Why do your eyes look so alike." He slowly stretched out his hand, pinched her chin and lifted it up, making her gaze directly at him, preventing her from escaping at all.
Inside Mingzhu's body, there seemed to be two people arguing.A person warned her, you can't say it, if you say it, you will go back to modern times.Can't be by his side anymore.The other person is encouraging her, say, Ye, tell him, you are the pearl.Tell him quickly.
She narrowed her eyes with a headache, and said tremblingly, "No one entrusted me with dreams, I just... I just..."
Feng Zhanxiu's expression was the same, but he was a little sad, "It's just what."
"I just think the lord is like my brother." She was quick to think and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother?" Feng Zhanxiu read these words strangely, his eyes were also unfamiliar, "How do you look like it?"
"Where does it look like? It feels...it feels very similar..." she hesitated.
Feng Zhanxiu continued to ask, "What about others?"
"Dead." Mingzhu really couldn't make it up, so she simply said she was dead.
Feng Zhanxiu's troubled expression gradually became brighter, and he suddenly moved, stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly.His hug was domineering and gentle, as if he was caring for her. He whispered in her ear, "Do you love your brother very much?"
"En." Mingzhu replied dully.
"This king allows you to treat this king as your elder brother." He said arrogantly.
Mingzhu was startled, and hugged him back.
In May, the long summer heat is ushered in, and the temperature is gradually rising.
The days are stretched infinitely, and it is Xu time when it gets dark.
In the city of Daicheng, the mansion of the state official has been occupied by Emperor Xiao and the Empress.They fled from the capital, and they ran day and night for a full month before arriving at Daicheng.
In the blink of an eye, from April to May.
The situation is becoming more and more chaotic.
In the main hall of the mansion, Dong Xiaotian and the ministers are discussing important matters.
Everyone looked dignified, and the atmosphere was even more stalemate.
Prime Minister Liu Qing sat on the side, and said in a deep voice, "Feng Zhanxiu has already captured Daxing and occupied the capital. But now, Prince Rui is silent, and he has not seen any action. There must be a conspiracy. Your Majesty, according to the old minister In my opinion, I am afraid that he is about to attack. The whole city is strictly on guard, and we must defend this place!"
"What the prime minister said is true!" Several ministers echoed.
"Your Majesty, I have always had a question in my mind, which has troubled me for many years." The person who spoke was Jiang Zaiyuan, a senior official who had been an official for many years.
Dong Xiaotian sat in the middle and upright, looked up at Jiang Shangshu, and asked slowly, "What questions does Jiang Aiqing have?"
"Feng Zhanxiu was strongly recommended by Prime Minister Liu to become an official in the court back then, but his life experience is completely unknown, he has no father and no mother. I just want to know the background of Feng Zhanxiu, and I don't know if the Prime Minister can explain it to me. "Jiang Zaiyuan bowed, looking at Prime Minister Liu Qing with his old eyes.
In fact, this question also troubled Dong Xiaotian, he glanced at Liu Qing, "Prime Minister, I really want to know."
Liu Qing squinted her eyes, recalled the past, and said thoughtfully, "Back then, the old man was ordered by the late emperor to make a private visit in disguise. Unexpectedly, he was assassinated by thieves on the way, and the old man's subordinates were killed and injured. In the end, the old man fell into the water and fell into a coma. When the old man woke up, it was Feng Zhanxiu who rescued the old man. After that, he escorted the old man all the way. The old man saw that he was capable of writing and martial arts, and he was courageous and brave, so he recommended the late emperor."
"Prime Minister, don't you think it's too coincidental?" Jiang Zaiyuan said.
"The old man didn't think much about it at the time, it was the old man's mistake." Liu Qing lowered her head and said ashamedly.
In fact, back then, he still had selfish intentions and wanted to set up his own party members in the court.After Feng Zhanxiu entered the court, he did not disappoint him, he won many battles and was invincible.Even later, he was valued more by the first emperor, and he granted the vassal land as a vassal king.As a result, the evolution of things did not go as expected.
Feng Zhanxiu was indifferent and conceited, and even ignored him.
He really regrets himself!
At this time, a travel-stained soldier rushed in from outside the hall.The soldier hastily knelt down on the ground, and reported back, "Your Majesty! According to reports, the city of Shu has been occupied by the troops of Nanchang Kingdom. Prince Rui has long since died."
What?Everyone was shocked.
"Your Majesty!" Jiang Zaiyuan stood up abruptly, bowed and said, "That Feng Zhanxiu had planned to rebel, I'm afraid he is a spy of Nanchang Kingdom. He has been undercover for many years, and he just wanted to bring Daxing down without a single soldier. Nanchang Her Majesty the Empress of China really has a lot of ambitions, she wants to dominate the Nine Kingdoms Continent!"
Dong Xiaotian was stunned, he never expected such an incident to happen suddenly.
Shu City was occupied by troops from Nanchang Kingdom, and Prince Rui was even killed.If all this is a conspiracy for many years, then what is the identity of Feng Zhanxiu?this is too scary!Not only was he being toyed with and applauded, even the dead Pearl was just toyed with and applauded by him.
"I want to be quiet! You all back down!" Dong Xiaotian murmured.
"emperor……"
He frowned, and shouted, "Back off!"
"Resignation!" All the ministers stood up and had no choice but to retreat.
All the ministers left the hall and saw Liu Shuiyao walking towards them with the support of several maids, and immediately bowed to each other, "Empress Empress!"
Liu Shuiyao is about to give birth, her belly looks more and more round.She saw the ministers frowning from a distance, and she knew that everyone was worried and depressed.She walked to the front of the hall with a smile, and said softly, "Ministers, you don't need to be polite, I ordered someone to stew some sweet soup, everyone go and taste it."
"Thank you, ma'am." The ministers thanked again and retreated one after another.
Liu Qing warned, "Be careful."
Liu Shuiyao nodded, watching them leave one by one.After the shadow disappeared, he took the bowl of sweet soup from Qiaoer's hand and walked slowly into the hall.
"Didn't I let you all..." Dong Xiaotian was thinking with his back turned away, when he heard footsteps approaching, he thought it was the ministers turning back.Without even thinking about it, he yelled sharply, and when he turned around, he saw Liu Shuiyao approaching him with a bowl of sweet soup.He stopped immediately, and his voice was a little lower, "Why are you here?"
Liu Shuiyao smiled slightly, "Your Majesty, the weather is a bit hot, drink a bowl of sweet soup to reduce the fire."
"You are about to give birth, why are you still walking here and there? Can't you let me relax?" Dong Xiaotian took the bowl with one hand and put it aside.Holding her with the other hand, he helped her to a chair and sat down.
Instead, Liu Shuiyao grabbed his hand and asked softly, "Your Majesty, what happened?"
"Prince Rui is dead." Dong Xiaotian stared at her with his head down, and said quietly, "Feng Zhanxiu is a spy of Nanchang Kingdom."
spy?Feng Zhanxiu?how is this possible?
Liu Shuiyao was flustered and dizzy, "How is it possible? Impossible!"
"You don't believe it? But this is the truth." Dong Xiaotian let go of her hand, "He has been planning for many years and is just waiting for the present."
Liu Shuiyao shook her head and shouted, grabbing his hand again, "No! I don't believe it!"
"Believe it or not." Dong Xiaotian laughed and couldn't help coughing.She believed him, and now even his wife believed him, so let's all believe him.
"Xiaotian...I..." Liu Shuiyao felt a burst of pain, and she reached out to caress her stomach.Just as he was about to stand up, his feet went limp and his whole body collapsed to the ground.
Dong Xiaotian turned around in astonishment, ran to her side in a big stride, and picked her up, "Shuiyao!"
"Xiaotian, it hurts so much..." Liu Shuiyao cried out in pain as she grabbed him tightly.
Dong Xiaotian shouted anxiously, "Come on! Come on!"
Immediately, Mrs. Wen, who delivered the baby, was passed into the mansion.
In the wing room, from time to time, there was the encouraging sound of Mrs. Wen, as well as Liu Shuiyao's heart-piercing shouts.Outside the wing room, Dong Xiaotian and other ministers waited anxiously.When a woman gives birth to a child, it is no different from walking through the gate of hell.Several hours passed, but Liu Shuiyao still failed to give birth to a dragon son.
This panicked everyone, only to see pots of blood pouring out.
Several times, Dong Xiaotian wanted to rush in, but was stopped by the ministers, "Your Majesty, don't enter!"
He had no choice but to stop and reached out to beat the wall.
Liu Qing is an old woman, so she dotes on Liu Shuiyao.He ran out of the room and knelt down to God, crying, and murmured, "This old man has done many wrong things and committed many sins in his life. But this old man is just such a daughter, and I beg God to bless Yao'er and the child to be safe." Nothing! The old man is willing to accept the punishment, please don't blame Shuiyao and the child!"
He kowtowed and begged.
Suddenly, Liu Shuiyao yelled.
In the next second, the cry of the baby resounded throughout the hall, "Wow——"
Wen Po was sweating profusely, and shouted happily, "Congratulations, you are a prince! Congratulations, you are a prince!"
Everyone hurriedly knelt down on the ground and shouted loudly, "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the empress, and joy to the prince!"
Dong Xiaotian ignored the minister and hurried into the room.
"Your Majesty!" Wen Po carried the infant baby in front of Dong Xiaotian.
With trembling hands, Dong Xiaotian hugged the child.When he lowered his head, he saw that the child's face was flushed, and his appearance was very cute.He couldn't help being excited, and kissed the child's little face.He hugged the child, walked to the edge of the bed, and whispered, "Thank you for your hard work, look, this is my child and yours."
"Your Majesty..." Liu Shuiyao turned her head to look at the child, but found that she had no strength in her body.He closed his eyes and passed out.
"Shuiyao? Shuiyao?" Seeing that she was unconscious, Dong Xiaotian hurriedly shouted, "Come on! Come on!"
……
After the imperial physician's treatment, Liu Shuiyao was finally out of danger.However, this also left the root of the disease.I'm afraid I won't live long due to blood loss.
In May of the Xiao Year, the queen gave birth to a prince in Daicheng, named Xuan Yi.
※※※
The capital, the palace.
In Pingle Palace, Feng Zhanxiu rested in the study.Of course, accompanied by the court lady Zhu Er.
During these days, Zhu'er has almost become a popular person beside the King of War.How red is it?Even Yun Ni, who is in charge of the body, is far behind!What's even more strange is that Zhan Wang listened to her very much.How obedient are you?For example, the King of War wants to drink, but as long as Zhu Er murmurs, the King of War will stop drinking.
It's like a wife controlling her husband!
Everyone in the palace thought that Zhu'er had become a phoenix by flying up the branch, but they didn't expect that the King of Zhan would not let her sleep with her.
As time goes by, rumors and rumors spread naturally.
It has long been heard that the King of War once doted on a beautiful boy, has the prince changed his orientation?Or, because the prince still has a princess in his heart, he can't tolerate other women?All in all, all in all, no one knows why.However, the person involved didn't mind at all and had a good time.
""Nvjing"? The prince also reads "Nvjing"?" Mingzhu walked up to him boredly, took a look, but found a copy of "Nvjing" on the table.
Feng Zhanxiu glanced at the "Nvjing", and then looked at her again, "Do you think this king will read this kind of book?"
"No." She answered simply and without ambiguity.
Look at such a big man like him, if you read "Nv Jing", it is also strange.Mingzhu thought about it for a second, and thought of those luscious books.Hmph, he just loves to read those coloring books.Her eyes wandered over his face, and she frowned suddenly in annoyance.This man has nothing to do, what is he looking so good-looking for?
It's disgusting, it's disgusting.
After Feng Zhanxiu stared at her leisurely, he asked in a deep voice, "Little maid, what are you looking at?"
"Uh..." Mingzhu was taken aback, and hastily reached out to pick up the book, pretending to flip through a few pages, and said falteringly, "I'm reading "The Classic of Women."
He propped his head on one hand, exuding a lazy air all over his body, "You will too?"
"Underestimate me? Of course I will!" Mingzhu gritted her teeth and gave him a sideways glance, and said from memory, "Don't walk around, don't dangle around, don't show your teeth when you smile, and don't speak too loudly... anyway... That means, almost."
Feng Zhanxiu nodded, "You don't match at all, I think you will definitely not be able to marry in the future."
"Nonsense!" she roared angrily.
"So fierce." He sighed, his eyes full of sarcasm.
Looking at his handsome face, Mingzhu said resolutely, "I won't marry in the future, I will definitely be with you."
"That's not okay, how can you not marry someone? Tell me, is there someone you like?" Feng Zhanxiu stared at her and asked.
Mingzhu blushed when he stared at her like this, "No."
"If there is none, then there is none. Why are you blushing?" He didn't show any face, and continued to ask, "Could it be that you are shy? Tell me, is there any?"
Mingzhu bit her lip and stared at him, "No."
"My lord thinks it's time for you to get married. How about I find someone for you?" He transformed into a Yuelao, wanting to hold a red line.
Mingzhu said speechlessly, "Will the lord want to ask me next, what do you think of General Zhongli?"
"How do you know? This king really thinks Zhongli is good. If you like it, I will marry you tonight!" Feng Zhanxiu asked her what she meant, but his face was sincere.
The idiot!Mingzhu cursed in her heart, and immediately knelt down.
"What are you doing?" Feng Zhanxiu asked puzzled.
Mingzhu lowered her head and said, "I won't marry! I won't marry! I don't like people leaving!"
"Then who do you like? You tell this king!" He said, reaching out to help her up.
I like you!You idiot!Mingzhu felt that she was going crazy.
At this moment, Zhongli rushed into the palace slowly, "Report to the prince! I just got the news that Liu Shuiyao gave birth to the prince successfully in Daicheng!"
Mingzhu hurriedly turned her head to look at Zhongli, and shouted in surprise, "Really? You gave birth to a prince?"
"En!" Zhongli responded, nodding his forehead.
Mingzhu shouted with joy, grabbed Feng Zhanxiu's wrist and shook it vigorously, shouting excitedly, "My lord, did you hear that? The queen gave birth to a little prince! She gave birth to a very cute little prince!" Those are the flesh and blood of Liu Shuiyao and Dong Xiaotian, if counted by seniority, Feng Zhanxiu should be the uncle of the little prince?
