Chapter 55: Twenty Years Ago

Ten days later, Concubine Yun arrived on time and performed the ceremony of asking for the name.

"Ali, auntie wants to go to the Jokhang Temple to ask Master Wuwei to tell fortunes for you and A'yan. You will stay in the guest room in the temple for one night. Ali, do you want to go with us for two days?" After saying that, her bright eyes looked at Qiao Lili eagerly. A small voice in her heart was shouting frantically, "Hurry up and agree, hurry up and agree. I want to take my little Ali, my good boy, out to play."

The old Duke's wife said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, will it cause you any trouble?" In fact, what she was thinking was that this was against the rules. How could a future mother-in-law go to match the horoscopes and bring her future daughter-in-law with her?

Concubine Yun looked at the old Duke's wife and said, "I am the person who is least afraid of trouble. Besides, Ali was brought up so well by you, how could she cause me any trouble? I'm afraid I still need her care." After Concubine Yun said this, the old Duke's wife was too embarrassed to stop her.

Being able to go out and play for two days and stay overnight outside is rare in this life. Qiao Lili was very happy.

"Aunt Yun, when are we leaving?" asked Qiao Lili. She needed to prepare things first.

"Tomorrow, I'll pick you up tomorrow." You have to hurry up, or her son will be back and she won't get to the stage of getting engaged. Her son will be so embarrassed that he will be upset all day."

Qiao Lili blinked her big eyes and tried her best to act cute, "Then Aunt Yun, can I ride in your car?" Hurry up and agree, hurry up and agree, she was going to ride in the same car with the fairy aunt, if she could rub against the fairy aunt's fairy spirit, she would definitely become fairy-like too.

Concubine Yun's eyes suddenly lit up, "Okay, okay, aunt's car is spacious, and I'll prepare your favorite fruit tea and snacks." Oh, there is such a good thing, they can ride in the same car, and while Haoda'er is not around, she must seize the opportunity to have a good kiss with her darling baby.

The Emperor wanted to ask the Imperial Observatory to match their horoscopes, but Concubine Yun wanted to go to Master Wuwei and also wanted to bring Qiao Lili with her. The two of them had a heated argument in the study: "Fei'er, you take Ali with you. What if Wuwei says their horoscopes are incompatible?" In fact, the Emperor himself wanted to go, but he couldn't go, so he was jealous of those who could accompany the Concubine.

"If he dares to say that I disagree, I will pull out all his hair one by one." Concubine Yun smiled, her smile full of sarcasm.

The emperor thought this was a good idea, but he always felt something was wrong. It was not until Concubine Yun left the study that the emperor realized that Wuwei was an old bald man without a single hair on his body.

Beauty can mislead people, beauty can mislead people. As soon as the emperor sees the imperial concubine, his IQ immediately drops to zero. Eunuch Li complained in his heart, pretending that he heard nothing and saw nothing.

Ever since the day when the memorials disapproving of A'Yan and A'Li's marriage were sent to the Shangshufang, he could no longer enter Yunxiao Palace.

No matter how he explained, said nice things, or sang songs at the door, it was useless. He had no choice but to go back to the study room with his head down and sleep on the cold Luohan bed. He had slept on this Luohan bed for four years, but it would never keep warm.

So these past few days, whenever he saw the eldest prince and the second prince, he wanted to beat them up. Suddenly, he thought, Fei'er was so anxious to match the horoscopes, why did she choose to go far away instead of near?

"Yin San." The emperor called softly, "Go check it out."

"Yes." No one showed up, and no one asked what they were checking, but someone agreed to go.

An hour later, several pages of paper were placed on the desk in front of the emperor.

The eldest prince kidnapped the eldest grandson of the director of the Imperial Observatory, and the second prince kidnapped the youngest son of the deputy director of the Imperial Observatory. They were just waiting for Concubine Yun to take Yu Jingyan and Qiao Lili's horoscopes to calculate.

"Fei'er knows everything, but she refuses to tell me." The emperor sighed.

He no longer has any credibility with Fei'er. He had deceived Fei'er back then. However, if time could go back, he would still deceive her. Call him selfish or call him a scum. Without her, he could not stay even a single day behind these high walls.

Twenty years ago, in winter, after a snowfall, a young man dressed as a scholar was running on the snow. His hair was messy, and there were several knife wounds on his body. Even one of his shoes was missing.

There were three men chasing him from behind, riding horses, shouting loudly and waving swords. In fact, they could have killed the scholar with one blow long ago, but they just liked watching this cat-and-mouse game. Seeing the once high and mighty prince running desperately like a stray dog, they felt a kind of malicious satisfaction in their hearts and felt very happy.

The scholar could no longer run, and he fell to the ground. The blood from his wounds dripped onto the snow, like blooming red plum blossoms.

Forget it, let it be. Even if I die on the snow, I will be considered pure in nature and go away pure in purity.

He slowly closed his eyes, preparing to face the final blow.

At this time, the sound of horse hooves was heard, and a chestnut horse carrying a woman in red came closer from afar.

The white snow covered the sky and the earth, making the touch of red on the snow have a strong visual impact. As the chestnut horse rose and fell and ran, the woman in red fluttered her clothes, as if she was an elf fallen into the mortal world.

The three knife-wielding killers were stunned. They forgot there was a lamb to be slaughtered on the ground. Their eyes were glued to the red color and they followed her closer and closer.

The woman in red had her hair tied up high with a red ribbon. The ribbon and her black hair fluttered together, making her look even more light and graceful.

The woman's face was covered with a veil, but the pair of eyes revealed outside were as bright as stars, leaving no one in any doubt about the stunning beauty beneath the veil.

The three men urged their horses and blocked the woman in red in a triangle, saying extremely obscene words. At this time, the woman also saw the scholar lying on the snow.

She was looking at the dying scholar, but when she saw the three villains surrounding her, she actually struggled to stand up, stretched out her arms, and blocked them: "You, kill me quickly and report back. This girl has nothing to do with it, let her go."

The three men raised their knives and slashed at him together: "Kill this person who's in the way first, then we can have fun with the girl."

The scholar was not afraid at all. He stretched out his arms to protect the woman and the horse, and shouted, "Go, go!"

The woman in red smiled and didn't say a word. She raised her sword and swung it down. A neat line of blood appeared on the necks of the three villains. "Plop, plop," "plop," three bodies fell to the ground on the snow. At this time, blood gushed out from their necks, dyeing the white snow beneath them red.

After killing three people, not only was there not a drop of blood on her clothes, but even the sword was spotlessly clean. Yu Linghuan didn't know how she did it, but he knew that no one around him could do this.

The smile of the woman in red was the nightmare of the three people on their way to the underworld, but it also became the salvation of his soul and life. He was screaming madly in his heart, keeping her, he must keep her by his side, at all costs.
