The Queen Mother jumped from the tower, and His Majesty was reborn with fear

Yu Jinzhi raised her head and looked at the sky: "There are no stars tonight. Why don't the stars come out?"

"Because the dark clouds are too thick." Xie Yuxiu added subconsciously.

"Why are there dark clouds?" Yu Jinzhi asked again.

"Because someone wants to sort out her emotions, she doesn't want others to see that she is sad." Xie Yuxiu continued.

Yu Jinzhi calmed down, and she slowly looked at Xie Yuxiu. Coincidentally, Xie Yuxiu also looked at her, and the two of them just stared at each other.

"Your eyes...are a bit like stars." Yu Jinzhi suddenly said.

Xie Yuxiu felt as if his heart skipped a beat. He looked at the person in front of him, not knowing how to start talking.

"You really don't look like a shadow guard." Yu Jinzhi added.

Xie Yuxiu was not flustered: "Why not?"

"Aren't shadow guards supposed to be very cold, very dull, and like a piece of wood?" This is all the impression Yu Jinzhi has of shadow guards.

But in fact, it is indeed the case...

only……

"Because they are all wearing masks." Xie Yuxiu suddenly said, with a hint of meaning.

Yu Jinzhi looked at the mask on his face. What did this mask mean?

"Do you have someone you like?" Yu Jinzhi suddenly asked.

Xie Yuxiu did not answer.

"No, right? People like you probably don't have anyone you particularly care about. If you had someone you care about, you probably wouldn't be a shadow guard." Yu Jinzhi asked himself and answered.

"What does the princess want to say?" Xie Yuxiu suddenly became curious.

"I originally wanted to ask you, what are you like in front of the person you like?" Yu Jinzhi smiled gently.

"It's like this now." Xie Yuxiu replied after a moment of silence.

Hmm? Yu Jinzhi didn't react. Is it like this now? Is he the same in front of everyone?

"Hiss..." Yu Jinzhi suddenly shivered.

Xie Yuxiu also calmed down: "Are you feeling cold? Why don't you go back to the house first?"

Yu Jinzhi nodded, she stood up and looked at the people below: "You guys eat slowly, I won't accompany you, I'll come out later to watch you set off the fireworks."

The people below would definitely not stop her, so Yu Jinzhi was about to enter the room after saying this. But just as she turned around, she remembered something, and then Xie Yuxiu saw her pick up the jar of osmanthus wine that she had not finished drinking on the table.

Xie Yuxiu: "..." Still want to drink?

When Yu Jinzhi walked into the house, Qingyu was about to follow. But Xie Yuxiu stopped her: "I'll accompany you. Don't let others disturb you."

Sunny and Rainy: “???”

Is there something wrong with my ears or is he crazy? Who the hell is he? How dare he take my place?

Qingyu was already holding back her anger over having her seat taken away from her, and now she wanted to curse even more, but...

Xie Yuxiu gave Qingyu a cold look and she fell silent instantly. This aura was so powerful, why did I feel so chilly?

So after hesitating for a long time, Qingyu finally compromised. However, she did not object at all because she saw that her own princess did not reject it.

Xie Yuxiu followed Yu Jinzhi into a room. Liang Qing looked at their backs and then silently drank a glass of osmanthus wine in front of him.

When Yu Jinzhi entered the house, she wanted to take off her cloak, and Xie Yuxiu hurried forward to take it.

"It's still warmer inside the house." Yu Jinzhi sat directly next to the table, holding a jar of osmanthus wine in her hand.

"Princess, do you want to drink more?" Xie Yuxiu asked, because Yu Jinzhi was already a little tipsy, and if she continued drinking, she would really get drunk.

Yu Jinzhi didn't care. She just held the jar and took a big gulp. Although her face looked a little hideous, she felt great!

"What do you care whether I drink or not?" Yu Jinzhi said bluntly.

Xie Yuxiu: "..."

Yu Jinzhi's eyes had begun to become blurry.

"Is there no stars in the sky because the people they miss are no longer on earth?" Yu Jinzhi asked again.

Why are we talking about stars again?

"I can't see the stars because no one cares about me and I'm all alone..." Yu Jinzhi began to feel sad, and the packaging that had been holding on just now began to fall off.

Xie Yuxiu felt a pain in his chest.

"No." Xie Yuxiu said.

Yu Jinzhi smiled bitterly: "Why not? I am the only one left in this world now. If I die in a few decades, will no one ever remember Yu Jinzhi?"

"Many people will remember you." Xie Yuxiu felt distressed.

"No way... Even if they remember, they will only remember that there was a shameless and dissolute rich girl in the past." Yu Jinzhi said.

Xie Yuxiu really wanted to hug the person in his arms, but he didn't dare.

"Actually, I used to think that I owned the whole world." Yu Jinzhi supported her head while drinking.

"I used to be the envy of everyone in the city. This is because I have a father who commands a large army, and I was a princess specially appointed by His Majesty. Later, I was personally taught by the Empress, and I was chosen by His Majesty as the Crown Princess, and I was also favored by the Crown Prince. Do you think that my identity would be enviable?" Yu Jinzhi asked.

Yes... She was indeed once the envy of everyone. Even the princesses in the palace were not as glorious as her.

Because all the people with the highest status liked her and valued her, and she was also very competitive, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and had extraordinary talent.

"But now I... have become someone that everyone looks down upon." Yu Jinzhi continued.

Now, whenever Yu Jinzhi is mentioned, they would think about how she was abducted into the palace and how she fell from the altar to the bottom of the valley.

People are always like this, they like to watch the fall of gods, they like to watch the tall phoenix struggling in the mud.

Yu Jinzhi was drunk, and she almost spilled the wine in front of her. Xie Yuxiu stepped forward and took the wine from her hand: "The princess is almost finished."

"Obviously there's still more than half left..." Yu Jinzhi retorted in a low voice, but he was no longer conscious.

She stood up from her seat, but lost her balance and fell towards Xie Yuxiu. Xie Yuxiu quickly hugged her, and Yu Jinzhi looked at her and did not resist his embrace for a moment.

"What... does your face look like under the mask?" Yu Jinzhi's fingers fell on his mask.

Xie Yuxiu was silent for a long time before he answered softly: "You won't like it..." he said.

He said... You won't like it, because it's me under the mask, so you won't like it...
