Gu Qingci

The strong wind rolled up the yellow sand from the ground, and the gravel as big as a bucket was moving around, and the front was dimmed.The bright sky was suppressed by the black wind and collapsed a little bit, leaving only a golden edge—a sandstorm is coming.

The figure became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared from sight.Sha Yu slowly stood up from the ground, reached out to reach for the red-headed rope behind her head, and pulled it off little by little.There was a Qi Ran smile on the corner of her mouth, like the last self-mockery to herself: "You are really not her anymore... In this life, you were born for her..."

If the formation that breaks the law and changes the fate is going to be backlashed, who will it be backlashed at?The person in the game, or the layout person?

The horse's hooves rattled on the ground, and the scene in front of them kept receding.After leaving the Gobi Desert, we crossed a big river in Xianyang County.I don't know how many days and nights have passed, and how far I have traveled.Why is Daxing's territory so vast?Why is the journey back to Beijing so long?

Liu Yueying, I've gone too far and been away for too long.The truth that Sha Yu told me was simply shocking.You didn't do all of this, you didn't want Yan Xi to die, but I spoke out in despair, and said such excessive things to you - you must be extremely angry and disappointed in me Only then will I be allowed to leave.

The matter of loving you has long been a thing that flows in the blood, and it has become an indispensable and rare thing in life together with breathing.That's why I'm so painful and desperate. It's not enough to hate you for letting Yan Xi stay away from court disputes. I insist on killing them all and throwing away the meager relationship between us.

Leaving you can indeed free me, but the price is that I will become a person who is no longer complete after cutting my heart and blood—there is nothing more sad than heart death, and I can’t see hope and tomorrow, so I lose the ability to be happy, angry, sad, and happy.

But, who would have thought that Sha Yu would put me here?She was so kind to me, first as Master's friend, and later as an elder sister, she helped me a lot in every detail.She hardly ever did anything bad to me, but when she did...

True and false, right and wrong, acceptable and unbearable, all these have long been indistinguishable.Only the most authentic voice in my heart can give me the answer.

When I learned the truth, my first reaction was to go back to Jincheng to see her, which was the best answer.

After rushing for three months, by the time I saw the walls of Jincheng, it was already November when the sun was weak, the snow was falling heavily, and there were no crickets.

The closer it was to Jincheng, the more rumors about the palace in the market restaurants.I've heard a lot of bad rumours.In the beginning, the emperor gradually delegated power to the regent, and later it became the regent who seized power and took control of the government, taking over from the emperor every day.These news are just groundless rumors, I scoffed.

However, after entering Jincheng through the Kaiyuan Gate, the whole city was solemn and solemn, and the people seldom talked to each other. Everyone's face was solemn and cautious.What's going on here?He looked up at the lantern on the city wall, it was still red, and there was no smoke to light it.

After finally inquiring from a servant in a teahouse, there was a rumor in the palace not long ago that the Holy Majesty fell ill and was in danger, and all the government had been returned to the regent.

Are you really sick?I still can't believe it.

Before I left Beijing, her body had been recuperated very well. She didn't look sick at all during the sacrifice last year. She walked steadily and stood for so long. This year hasn't come yet, so why is she in danger?

"Girl, you can tell that you are from another place..." The young man licked his lips, but hesitated to speak.I took a long hairpin inlaid with gold and agate from my head, and the boy's eyes were straightened.He looked around and pulled me into the teahouse.

"You don't know that the Prince Regent has closed the city recently, do you? This Jincheng is only allowed to enter and not to leave, just because someone is afraid that someone will spread this matter out of the capital!" No wonder I only heard about Liu Yuehua along the way, but never heard about Liu Yueying. .

"It's really not a coincidence that you are coming to Beijing now, you won't be able to leave for ten days and a half months; if you really wait until the Emperor Longyu of Lingkong is the guest, wouldn't you be going to the country for a funeral?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" I glared hard at him, and he quickly slapped himself a few times: "Yes, yes, slap your mouth, slap your mouth."

I was so panicked that beads of sweat dripped from my head.Now the top priority is to enter the palace, but how to enter?

I'm just a commoner now, and even the priests can't see her driver, what should I do to meet her in the heavily guarded palace?Do you want to tear off the mask made by Sha Yu and run around the gate of Liu Yuehua's mansion?

Alas, things that were easy to come by before are now as difficult as heaven for me.

"Girl is so generous, let me tell you one more secret. It's rumored that you have a nose and an eye!" Seeing that I didn't speak, the young man smiled gossip again: "It is said that the regent has something to say to Emperor Lingkong. It's a pity that she is the emperor's own younger sister, so she had to endure it for so many years; now that the emperor is seriously ill, besides dealing with the government affairs, she is inseparable from the emperor's sick side every day!"

He frowned deeply, the world doesn't know how to read the wind, so this kind of messy things spread.It's no wonder that Ling Xu's feelings for her sister Ling Kong were seen in the wild history in the previous life. It turned out that it came from this time.It's ridiculous!

"Hey, girl, don't leave, you can't live in the wing room of our teahouse—" the servant still shouted behind him.

Shengqing Building.

I looked up at the tall plaque and strode in.

I was too anxious in the sea of ​​fire at the beginning, and I took off the outer robe and jacket after burning and threw them away, and the things hanging inside were also lost.So now there is not even a thing that can prove identity.

When I entered the Shengqing Building, the waiter immediately came over and asked me whether I should stay at the top or stay in the hotel.Looking past him to the accounting scholar behind the counter, he spit out a few words: "I want to see Mr. Sanshui."

"What are you talking about, why can't you understand, little one?"

"It's Xiao Xiang." Mr. Sanshui was the nickname he later gave himself. Over the years, he gradually became famous in the world, but his original name was unknown.

The boy's expression changed, I pointed to the accountant scholar and said, "That's him." Then I walked straight over.

Xiao Xiang looked at me, hesitated for a moment, stood up quickly and said with a smile, "Is the guest officer here to pay the bill?"

"No, I came here specially to find you," I lowered my voice, "Xiao Xiang, I once gave you a wish in Qingzhou."

……

I was led by Xiao Xiang into the secret room on the top floor.Seeing no one around, I tore off the mask on his face before he could speak.Xiao Xiang stared at the boss, knelt down on his knees and said, "You are still alive, benefactor!" He tried his best to restrain his excitement, and he was no longer the dazed look he used to be.

After Sheng Qinglou was formally incorporated by the imperial court, Xiao Xiang, the big housekeeper, also became the imperial court's official. He finally became an official as he wished.So calling me a "benefactor" is not an exaggeration.

He made up some lies, saying that he was not burned to death, but survived by luck, and returned to the capital after going through untold hardships.

"Xiao Xiang, don't spread this matter." I reminded him.He nodded: "Okay, I will go to the regent now. Please benefactor, please stay here later." After speaking, he disappeared, and I stayed in his small room in a daze.

Liu Yuehua came very quickly, and he was very angry.

After all, she has dealt with those old foxes for a long time, and she has the aura of a high-ranking person in her gestures, but she still can't compare with Liu Yueying.

The door was quickly pushed open, and Liu Yuehua entered the inner room with the wind, and saw me at a glance.She walked up to me in a hurry and pinched my face with her hand.

"Hiss—what are you doing!" I was pinched by her in great pain, and I used my arms to block her and forced her to keep some distance from me.She pulled my face up, down, left, and right for a long time before she let go of her claws and took a step back, folded her hands on her chest, and squinted at me.

When she was looking at me, I was looking at her too.

Liu Yuehua was wearing a big and thick sable fur and a red cloak, and there was still a little snow falling on her hair, which gradually melted into small drops of water; Like Liu Yueying, Yuanyuan's eyes are not as sharp as hers.

"Yang Li, huh?" Her expression was very bad.

"Yes, it's me."

"Since you didn't die, why did you come back now?"

"...It's a long story. Let's talk slowly after I see the emperor."

After hearing this, she poured down her anger: "It's a long story? You said it so lightly, do you know how painful it is for Miss Huang to think about you? She is weak and sleeps lightly, so I don't know how many times she wakes up every night." Once, it was so serious that the imperial doctor prescribed sleeping pills to barely fall asleep, so I knew how to torment myself. On the day of your death, she blew the cold wind on the tall building all night, and was finally carried back by the palace guards, and burned for three whole days... They didn't know, I know, Sister Huang has always read your name. After waking up, I have lived for 25 years. It is the first time I have seen her helpless expression—you are the cause of such a proud Sister Huang. , why did you come back now! How do you know to come back!"

I was choked up by her speechless yelling, and when I looked up, I found Liu Yuehua's tears were in his eyes, and his face was red from the yelling.Her face, which was furious because she hated me, was completely incompatible with the domineering, spoiled and self-willed little girl in my impression.

Is this time?

She is already Wen Jiu's mother and the regent of Daxing.

"I'm sorry, I don't know. If I could have known sooner—" If Sha Yu had told me the truth earlier... I laughed, what if.

"Liu Yuehua, I can't explain the matter with her clearly, but it's all insincere and involuntary. After so much, I will tell her everything I know, the cause and effect. So please let me go See her." I lowered my head and said very solemnly.

Liu Yuehua's chuckle rang in his ears, and then fell silent again.The air was a little stagnant, and my heart was fluctuating.

"Sister Huang protects you like a baby, how dare I stop you. It's just...you should be mentally prepared." Liu Yuehua also lost her temper, knowing in her heart that it is useless to be angry with me, so she rarely sighed. He seemed to be preoccupied: "I'll tell you first, and I don't care about any grievances you have with Huang Jie in the future; since you have chosen to come back now, you should write it off completely and never mention it again. Huang Jie can't stand these stimuli either. gone."

"Okay, I know." His hands were clenched into fists, and his nails dug deep into his flesh.

"It's a good thing you know to come back, I hope...it's not too late." She sighed again.
