Fragrance in the wind

Royal weddings are usually very complicated, even if everything is kept simple at the sixth prince's request, it will take at least half a month.

On the night before the wedding, the sky was dark and heavy, with bursts of thunder rolling in, the whole world felt like the earth was shaking.Accompanied by the flickering lightning flashes, the appearance of this room can be vaguely seen.

Red, everywhere is red.The gold-threaded shoes in front of the bed, the red wedding dress on the table, and the red candles on the candlesticks all took on a strange color amidst the lightning and thunder.

"Miss, what a blessing! Because of etiquette, we cannot meet before the wedding, and His Highness has been sending people to ask. We have only been separated for a day or two, and His Highness seems to be unable to let the girl go!" the old mother continued. talking.

The woman sitting in front of the makeup mirror was wearing a red gauze dress, sitting loosely. After the old mother took off her dress, she gently combed her long black hair. She poked her head out from time to time, looking outside The weather is a little worrying about tomorrow's wedding.

The old mother thought that she was still thinking about His Highness, so she said: "It's so late that no one will come again, the girl should go to bed early, and people in the palace will pick up the girl in eight big sedan chairs very early tomorrow."

As if the heavens were rejecting the words of the old mama, suddenly, a huge bolt of lightning struck the head with a loud thunder, followed by the sound of chaotic footsteps.

The door of the room was pushed open fiercely, and the strong wind whipped the rain like a horsewhip, whipping the ground, and many figures swarmed into the room, looking extremely gloomy.

"You are from the palace! What do you want to do..." Before she finished speaking, the old mother was knocked unconscious and collapsed on the ground.

Ah Ning stared at the intruders with wide eyes in horror, each of them had a solemn expression of death on their faces, and she unconsciously covered her abdomen with her hands.

On the day of the wedding, it rained for the first time.According to the etiquette, Zizhou should go to the emperor, empress dowager, and concubine Shu in formal attire and kneel down three times and kowtow nine times.

Because the Empress Dowager died of illness three years after he left, and Chun Yufeng didn't want to see him, so Zizhou saluted outside the door and went directly to Concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu greeted him, asked him warmly, and told each other what had happened in recent years. When it came to the plague in Shanyin County last year, Concubine Shu nervously grabbed his hand and let him Zizhou, who had no mother since childhood, felt a little warmth from her mother.

While chatting and laughing, Su Le came in with a flustered expression, and murmured in Zizhou's ear. Concubine Shu saw his complexion turned pale instantly, her eyes were filled with extreme surprise, and she could vaguely guess what happened.

After being stunned for a moment, Zizhou left in a hurry. Concubine Shu Huizhi Lanxin had already seen that his expression was wrong, so she didn't stay any longer.

After galloping all the way to Ah Ning's residence, Fang approached the door, facing a nauseating smell of blood.He suddenly slowed down, looking at the red robe lying in a pool of blood, he felt like he was in a dream, so unreal.

"A Ning?" He picked her up and called softly, his body was covered with dirty blood, it was hard to tell whether it was the child's or A Ning's.

"A Ning?" He called again, but there was still no response. His blood had already solidified, his body was already frozen, his eyes were staring straight at the roof, his hands were covering his belly, and he was still holding his breath before death. pose.

Su Le brought the old nanny who was with Ah Ning to the Highness. The old nanny knelt down on the ground in panic, and replied in a trembling voice: "This old slave knows them, they are from the palace..."

Su Le stepped forward hesitantly and said: "The servant has found out that Miss Ah Ning drank poisonous wine...the poison is a special poison made in the palace."

Zizhou's lips trembled violently, staring blankly at everything in front of him, which almost made him faint for a moment, and he turned his gaze to Su Le, "Is this a dream?"

Su Le lowered her head and wiped her tears, unable to bear to answer him.

Zizhou slapped himself hard, wanted to wake himself up, raised his hand to hit him again but was hugged by Su Le, crying: "Your Highness, this is not a dream, don't hurt yourself anymore .”

"It's not a dream...it's not a dream" Zi Zhou repeated helplessly, suddenly raised his eyes, his eyes were suddenly ruthless, piercing into people's hearts sharply, he gritted his teeth and said, "It's him!" After saying that, he wobbled He stood up straight and walked outside.

"Your Majesty..." The little palace maid walked in quickly.

Concubine Shu immediately stood up when she heard the words, and hurriedly asked: "Have you heard about it? What's going on?"

"Miss Ah Ning and His Highness Six's children are gone."

"What!" Concubine Shu was shocked, and expected, "Did His Majesty do it?"

The little maid nodded and said: "The poisoned wine given by His Majesty last night. His Highness the Sixth Highness broke into the Zhaoyang Palace covered in blood, and has not yet come out."

Concubine Shu slumped down on the chair again, her shocked expression refused to dissipate for a long time, and she muttered to herself: "It's really my mistake, I shouldn't have told the Taifu about the child's background at the beginning, otherwise how could it have developed to this point? .He is really crazy! How could he use such vicious means just to keep one person. "

"Your Majesty, you said that His Highness the Sixth Highness must hate His Majesty to death, and there is no news about Zhaoyang Palace, just in case..."

"Shut up!" Concubine Shu was worried about this, but this girl still said it.If it was the past, she knew His Majesty after all, and she was certain in her heart, but now that the two of them are on the verge of irrationality, who knows what will happen.The more Concubine Shu thought about it, the more flustered she felt. Both parties felt uncomfortable when something happened, so her heart was overwhelmed, and she rushed to Zhaoyang Palace with her servants.

As soon as she entered the palace door, Concubine Shu went straight to the study, and saw Fu Zhi standing at the door from a distance, she stopped in her tracks, neither left nor took a step closer, but stood in the same place and quietly listened to the news in the study. incoming voice.

"Don't you want me? I'm standing in front of you now. Zhou'er is willing to accompany you no matter what you want to do and how many times you do it."

His evil face was stained with blood, and his expression was as calm as a demon that lured others into hell. Chun Yufeng stretched out his hand to push him away, his eyes slowly moved away from his face, and his throat moved up and down unconsciously.

There was a hint of treachery on the corners of Zizhou's lips, and he moved closer, stretched out his hand and slid into Chunyufeng's chest, found that spot, rubbed it slowly, and a lazy voice panted by his ear: "Don't hold back, son. I know my father likes it!"

Chunyufeng moved Zizhou's hand away, and there was no fire in his clear eyes, he just said calmly: "Do whatever you want, you don't have to."

Zizhou was stunned for a while, and then suddenly grabbed the other party's collar excitedly, and stared into his eyes, "You forced me, and you caused us to come to this point."

Chunyu Feng looked back at him, and said every word: "I don't regret it!"

Zizhou was startled, his face was full of disbelief, and he squeezed out between his teeth: "You...how can you be so cruel?"

"That's how I am, don't you know?"

Zizhou staggered a few steps, and murmured: "Even if I can't understand my mother's death, I will try my best to forgive you from your point of view. I don't blame you for the death of Master and Jian Zicong, you I don't care about Su Mo and Xiang Zhu, I try to understand you, but why don't you let her go, let go of my child..."

At the end, the voice was so hoarse that it was hard to distinguish, Chunyufeng watched Zizhou squat down and buried his face deeply by his knees, his whole body was trembling, his whole heart was tearing, and he immediately bent down and hugged him tight.

"You are cruel! You are cruel..."

After crying for a long time, Zizhou's mood gradually stabilized, and finally the strong hatred ruined their love.He slowly raised his head in his arms, bit Chunyufeng's earlobe, and said warmly and wetly next to his ear: "I will not kill you, I will torture you slowly."

After finishing speaking, he pressed his lips again, looked at the other party blankly with tear-filled eyes, and said slowly: "You said that as long as it is what I want, you will give it to me, is it true?"

Chunyufeng couldn't take his eyes off the other's charming and changeable appearance, so he nodded in a daze.

Zizhou smiled in satisfaction, lowered his head and held the other party's throat, and said vaguely: "What if the minister wants the whole Chunyu country?"

Hearing this, Concubine Shu couldn't be calm anymore, she hurriedly turned around and left Zhaoyang Palace quickly, her whole heart seemed to jump out, she didn't even dare to imagine the future.

The sixth prince's marriage was not consummated, so the fief naturally did not go.But the sixth prince is after all a 20-year-old adult who has undergone the coronation ceremony, and it is against the rules to live in the palace all the time.So the ministers began to worry about the sixth prince's marriage, scrambling to introduce the young lady in their own boudoir, but they were rejected one by one by the sinking emperor.

Seeing this, the ministers who pay attention to the rules in the court played one by one, suggesting that the six princes move out of the palace immediately and rush to the fief in order to comply with the ancestor's rules.

After Chunyufeng heard this, he was not angered, instead he sighed and said: "When people get old, they hope that their children will be happy, and the emperor is no exception. I have few descendants, and I want to keep the six princes for a few more years. It's human nature to be by my side, and you all have your own children, can't you be considerate of me?"

After listening to the emperor's complaints, all the ministers of His Majesty were speechless, and all bowed their heads to wake up.

After the dynasty was over, the prince followed the emperor to the imperial study. When there was no discussion on political affairs, the two often fought each other to pass the time.

After three rounds of chess, the prince was completely defeated.Chunyu Gurui smiled and fiddled with the chess pieces, and said: "Father's chess skills are exquisite, I'm afraid my son will not be able to win completely after learning it for a few years."

Chunyufeng was silent for a moment, then said: "What does the prince think about today's matter?"

Chunyu Gurui's movement of playing the chess was slightly stagnant, and then he said: "Father Huang loves the sixth younger brother, this is a well-known thing, rules are dead, people are alive, my son doesn't care about these things."

While the prince was speaking, Chunyufeng kept staring at him, his sharp eyes seemed to penetrate the surface to see the inside.

"Since the crown prince doesn't care, father is relieved." Chun Yufeng touched the chess piece in his hand and continued, "There are some things I don't want to make clear, but it doesn't mean that I will let them go. Since ancient times, the world has been the world, and the imperial court It is the imperial court. There will be a fulcrum in the middle to maintain the balance of each other. The emperor will not rashly intervene in the affairs of the Jianghu, and the Jianghu will not intervene in the imperial court. Even the Huaiyingmen cannot escape being merged into the imperial court. Destiny, not to mention the question of whether the royal blood is pure or not."

Chunyufeng saw that the prince had been silent, Fang asked: "Does the prince understand what I said?"

Chunyu Gurui paused for a moment, and hurriedly replied, "I understand."

"Okay! I understand, so I won't waste my time." Chunyu Feng played a chess game, "Here is your sixth brother who is helping me manage the affairs of the court, so how about I send the crown prince there?"

Chunyu Gurui glanced at Chunyufeng who was opposite him calmly, still maintaining a calm posture, as if everything was under the control of the other party.

Chunyufeng suddenly raised his head, his eyes were so calm that it almost made people want to tear up his disguise, and said slowly: "How about this as a deal between the prince and me?"

The prince hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I dare not!"

Chunyufeng smiled slightly, the years did not leave any marks on his face, instead, he became more and more intoxicated like old wine, and he said in a magnetic voice: "Don't you really dare? In fact, you are the one who is with you The one I most resemble."

The prince pondered for a while, then raised his eyes to look into Chunyufeng's eyes, and said, "If the subject accepts the deal from the emperor, what will the emperor do to guarantee the minister's future?"

Chunyufeng pushed the wooden box under his hand to the prince's eyes, the prince opened it hesitantly, the expression on his face was stunned when he saw the contents clearly, he couldn't help but looked at the other party in surprise, but the other party asked him calmly :"how?"
