If you want to enter the palace, you must first leave the palace

The Empress Dowager Cisheng watched Zhu Yijun walk out of the bedroom with a forced smile. She felt a little unbearable in her heart for a moment, but it quickly disappeared.

Or, she is a woman who doesn't understand love at all, but she is definitely a woman who knows how to survive in the palace. She has seen too many empress dowagers from a lowly maid to today's honorable empress dowager. There have been many storms, and I have long known that love and love are not the whole of life, and deep love may not necessarily lead to lifelong happiness.It is to live cautiously.Only in exchange for a sound of security.

She is a mother, and she is also the empress dowager of Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yijun is the Yellow Emperor, who bears the heavy responsibility of the world, and his every move is watched by the world; and as the mother of the emperor, he must establish an image of motherhood to the world. Internally, he has the responsibility to teach his young and frivolous son who is not yet fully mature, and let him follow the etiquette and laws to do what an emperor should do.

The Empress Dowager Cisheng sighed softly, and then called out: "Come here!"

An old eunuch and a middle-aged court lady came in and knelt down: "What orders does the Empress Dowager have?"

The Empress Dowager Cisheng said: "I pass on the decree of this palace. From today onwards, no one is allowed to mention Prince Nanzhao or anything related to him in the palace, especially the emperor. If anyone dares to mention a single word, he must repeat it Punishment without pardon.”

"Yes."

"Also, this matter must not alarm the emperor." The Merciful Empress Dowager added solemnly.

The two palace servants took Yi's order and quickly withdrew.

The Empress Dowager Cisheng rubbed her temples, with a tired look on her face, she said to herself: "My lord, everything I did behind the scenes today was for the overall situation and for you. One day, you should understand my This is the painstaking effort behind the scenes."

Under the arrangement of the Empress Dowager Cong Sheng, the escape from the palace was finally brought to an end peacefully.

On the other hand, the county-level city and their group, who were afraid of unexpected changes, fled southward day and night after leaving the capital.Knowing that there are no pursuers catching up behind them, and when there are no relevant arrest warrants around, they have not been obstructed when passing through multiple checkpoints all the way across the state and provinces. .

At this time, they had passed Lingnan and entered the border of Guangxi. According to the coachman, they could go south for about ten days before arriving at the border between Daming and Annan.

The continuous running around day and night has already made everyone feel exhausted. When they were sure that the environment in the depths was safe, they decided to find an inn to stay overnight, let everyone have a good rest and recover, and then rushed back to Nanmian Country.So, they found an inn in a small town before dark and stayed down.

After dinner, everyone who was tired went back to their rooms to rest.

Bei Juese was lying on a bed that was several times wider than a carriage, and softer and more comfortable than the muddy ground in the barren mountains. After tossing and turning for a long time, he still couldn't fall asleep.Ever since he ran out of the palace, he only focused on running forward single-mindedly, and his spirit has been in a state of tension. Now that his mood is suddenly relaxed, he feels a little uncomfortable, and there are many messy thoughts in his mind for no reason. He cannot sleep well.

Bright moonlight shone in through the half-opened windows, scattering silver light all over the floor.The half-open window is facing the sea and facing the bed, as long as you turn your body to one side, you can see the full moon with the soft and spiritual light of the three outside the window.Bei Juse, who was completely sleepy, simply got up and got out of bed, took the coat hanging by the bedside, put it on her body, and walked to the window to look at the moonlight.

He walked to the bed, but found two people in the small courtyard downstairs, and by the bright moonlight, he could see that the two were Dong Wudi and Qiu Wuhen.Qiu Wuhen stood next to the well in the courtyard and looked up at the moon. Less than two meters behind him, Dong Wudi sat on a stone slab under a flower tree and slowly wiped a sword.

The scene of two big men running into the yard looking at the moon and wiping their swords in the dead of night looks a bit strange!Bei Juese's curiosity arose and he decided to take a walk in the yard.

Go out of the room and turn right, go straight to the end along the corridor, and there is a staircase leading to the small courtyard downstairs.

Bei Juese walked into the small courtyard, Dong Wudi just looked up at him slightly, and said lightly: "You can't sleep either?" After speaking, he lowered his head and continued to wipe his sword seriously.

And Qiu Wuhen was not affected by the external environment at all, and still maintained the posture that Bei Juse had just seen from upstairs, his eyes were blurred, and his face with a dull expression was facing the moonlight. Under the reflection of the moonlight, he remained motionless for now Sometimes it looks like a lifeless stone statue.

Since we were on the road together, I haven't heard a single word from him. Even if someone talks to him, he doesn't seem to hear it. Oh yes, he never answers.He is like a living dead whose soul is sealed in his own world. Although the poison that he guards on his body every day has been removed by the doctor Xiaofei, he is still unconscious beside Concubine Yun, staring at him obsessively. Concubine Yun's sleeping face would occasionally pick her up and sit in a corner, slumped and motionless for a long time. The time from the capital to here was not too long, but he obviously came a lot. Her hair also turned half white in just a few days.

The "eternal legend of Nanmian" back then attracted the whole people's sallow and white Wuhen son, but today he can't see the elegance and chic of the old days at all.The handsome and arrogant Mr. Pian Pian was now a decadent, haggard, old man, like a lump of mud that couldn't support the wall. There is no difference between wretched middle-aged men.Perhaps, the death of Princess Zhaoxia and Concubine Yun's suicide by taking poison had really hit him too hard.

Bei Juese passed by Qiu Wuhen, walked eastward to Wudi, sat down on the stone slab, and asked, "Brother, why did you come here in the middle of the night to wipe your sword?"

Dong Wudi said without raising his head, "That man walked out, so I have to follow."

Dong Wudi carefully and slowly wiped his sword that never left his body. He wiped it over and over again, then lifted it up to the moonlight and carefully checked it several times, then retracted it and continued to wipe it.

Bei Juese noticed that when he recommended Dui Yue, there was a trace of the same look in his eyes inadvertently, and it was soon replaced by disappointment.

Bei Juese suddenly remembered that the elder brother he had known for so many years was a person who yearned for the world.Although the master educated their senior brothers since they were young, saying that the Jianghu is such a terrible place, and told them not to get close to the Jianghu as much as possible; .

Bei Juese still remembers very clearly the day that Dong Wudi left his master to go wandering and exclaiming alone. The rusty old iron sword that didn't even have a scabbard, only wrapped in old cloth, went down the mountain without looking back.A year later, he came back to the mountains to visit his master and his juniors. At that time, he was as embarrassed as a beggar on the side of the road. Except for his shabby clothes, all he had was the old iron sword.

In the second year, he came back in high spirits, and the worn-out iron sword became a shining sword with a scabbard.In that year, he had already become a newcomer who was just showing off. It was also that year, the second senior brother who couldn't stand the lonely days in the mountains happily followed the senior brother down the mountain to see the colorful world outside.

In the third year, he came back with an extremely sharp sword, which was said to be a trophy obtained from defeating Fan Jin, the number one swordsman in martial arts. In that year, he was already one of the best swordsmen in the Jianghu.That year, the three senior brothers also went down the mountain, and the originally bustling mountain hut was left deserted after grouping together, Bei Jue Se and the master depended on each other, and the parting of that year did not meet again until ten years later. See you, see you again, he is already the leader of the martial arts.

Dong Wudi might be born to be a swordsman in the Jianghu, so the Jianghu has an irresistible attraction for him.

Bei Juese doesn't have much longing for Jianghu, but he can understand the feelings in Dong Wudi's heart.He thought for a while and said, "Brother, if you go south, you will leave Daming. You still have a lot of things to deal with, so don't accompany us to Nanmian." For some reason, he said When I said these words, I felt a feeling of reluctance in my heart. It was not the first time I was struggling. I don’t know how many places I have been separated since I was a child.

Dong Wudi looked up at Bei Juese, then turned to Qiu Wuhen, and said, "I'm worried about letting you take those two back to Nanmian."

Bei Juese smiled and said: "Xiaoqing is still helping to watch. Now Mr. Wuhen's martial arts has been abolished by the medical girl, and Concubine Yun is just a living dead person who has no ability to take care of herself. They are on the road, even if something happens, Xiaoqing and I should be able to handle it. Besides, we should be able to catch up with Minister Wen and the others very soon. As long as we meet them, there is no need to worry about other people when there are so many people on the road together Things. Senior brother, you should be very concerned about the Central Plains martial arts in your heart, right? You don’t have to worry about my affairs, just leave everything behind.”

Dong Wudi put his sword back into the scabbard, patted Bei Juese's head, and said, "I don't need to worry about the matter of the Central Plains martial arts with your second and third senior brothers watching. But you idiot, don't watch it for a while." There will be troubles, and as a big brother, I can't let you go."

"But..." Bei Juese wanted to say something, but Dong Wudi slapped him on the head.

"Don't do it. Now that you are a prince, do you think that I, a man in the rivers and lakes, has disrespected you? After sending you back to Nanmian, you are driving me away."

"Why would I have this kind of thought?" Afraid that Dong Wudi Dance would be a ruthless person, Bei Juese quickly explained, "I just don't want you to delay your business because of me, senior brother, if you are happy If so, after arriving in Nanmian, you can stay in the south for as long as you like! Also, can a prince like me, who has the effect of not laying eggs, be able to compare with the majestic Central Plains martial arts leader?"

Dong Wudi chuckled, and said, "I've learned how to flatter. It seems that the idiot junior is also smart at times."

Bei Juese looked at him with some dissatisfaction, and said, "Why did the teacher call me stupid?"

Dong Wudi shrugged his shoulders and said seriously: "Because this is an unchangeable fact."

In terms of verbal disputes, Bei Jue Se presumably is not Dong Wudi's opponent.He waited for Dong Wudi to take a look, and after saying "I'm going to sleep", he ignored Dong Wudi and went upstairs to his room exquisitely.

Rested at the inn for one night, got up early the next morning and had breakfast, bought the supplies needed on the road, and then drove to Nanmian.

Going south like this, after about ten days, in a small town hundreds of miles away from the border between Daming and Annan, I finally caught up with Ruan Jinglun and his party who went ahead. Feelings for the rest of my life.Leaving aside the summary of the reunion, the team continued on the road without any delay.

The long commune team dragged the heavy Daming to return the gift. Although they were already heading towards Nanmian at the fastest speed, they had to take care of one and the other on the way, and they had to stop and rest for a day or two when the weather was bad. It took more than two months to stop and go like this, and come back to Nanmian City.

Not long after returning to Nanmian Kingdom, Prince Nanzhao, who successfully asked the Emperor of Ming Dynasty to reduce the amount of tribute paid by Nanmian Kingdom by half and reduce the tribute period from one side to two years, became a novel citizen of Nanmian Kingdom. An idol, not only because he freed Nanmian Kingdom from the burden of paying tribute to the elders, and made the lives of the working people better, but also because many Nanmian citizens have seen his peerless appearance and humble appearance. His attitude towards the world made him adored him.

With the increasing popularity, Bei Jue Se has more and more things to do.Less than a month after returning to Nanmian Kingdom, his four king uncles and the king handed over all the powers that were injured. The official statement is that the frail and sick king has been working hard on state affairs for many years. Meditate and recuperate in middle duty.But the truth is, after Nan Mingxiang's open and unannounced visits, it was discovered that the group of killers who belonged to the group of men in black who were planning to assassinate Bei Juese in Shangzhong, the leaders of Zhong Zhong had secretly communicated with Wang, and sent troops to attack him. The Shahesou Group captured several leaders for interrogation, and they even confessed that they sent killers to assassinate the prince.

The king of Nanmian thought that the love between brothers would kill He Wang, but he just withdrew all the rights in his hands, and declared that she would go home to recuperate, but in fact he was under house arrest in the palace, excluding special personnel to monitor all his daily actions .

Concubine Yun and Qiu Wuhen who were escorted back from Daming, after Ziai Nanmian Wang learned of everything they had done, Nanmian Wang Ba locked them in the room alone for a day and a night, and finally ordered them to be imprisoned in a foreign country. In the courtyard, he could not step out of the other courtyard for the rest of his life. Although these two people killed the people he loved the most, they were once as close as brothers and sisters to him. King Nanmian could not execute them in the end.

In addition, Bei Juese, after Nanmian King dealt with the scourge of Hewang, Nanmian King transferred all the recovered political rights to him, so although he was not very willing, Bei Juese began to go to court and studied with Ruan Jinglun's assistance. The pig looks like dealing with affairs of the DPRK and China.

Time passed bit by bit, and winter passed in a blink of an eye, and Nanmian Kingdom ushered in the spring when red cotton bloomed everywhere. It was also in this season when the world was red and bright, in the Nanmian Palace, the concubine Ming was the Nanmian King The second prince of Nanmian Kingdom was born.

Concubine Ming was pregnant with this prince when Bei Jue Se and the others went to Ming Dynasty. In order to commemorate this very important mission to Nanmian, King Nanmian named the prince "Nanming". The friendly diplomatic relationship between Nanmian Kingdom and Ming Dynasty, on the day of the full moon of the prince, the Nanmian King amnesty the world, and the state capitals all over the country hosted banquets to entertain the citizens, and the whole country celebrated together for three days.

Everything is going in the direction of a trial.

On this day, in the bright spring, Nanmian Wang and Bei Juese climbed up to the Feifeng Tower, and the red cotton was blooming brilliantly in the streets and alleys of the city. Looking down from the Feifeng Pavilion, you can only see large expanses of red cotton in full swing under your feet, The red is so shocking, the red is so warm to the heart.

Sitting on the top floor of Feifeng Pavilion, leaning against the comfortable hungry soft couch, looking at the red city of Nanmian, Nanmian Wang and Bei Juese leisurely drinking tea, Chi Chi snacks, doing homework, After chatting for a while, King Nanmian suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Wang Er, how old are you this year?"

Bei Juese thought for a while and said, "Eighteen."

King Nanmian stroked his beard thoughtfully, and said, "It's already eighteen, it's time to accept a wife and concubine. It seems that it's time for my father to hold a ceremony for you..."

Before King Nanmian finished speaking, Bei Juese couldn't help but spit out the tea he just drank.

Nanmian Wang hurriedly put down his teacup and asked with concern: "My lord, are you alright?"

Bei Jue-se Huang Zhao touched the tea near his mouth, and said, "No, it's all right. By the way, father, my son suddenly remembered something important and wanted to ask Minister Wen for advice. I'm afraid I'll forget it later, my son." Go find Minister Wen now! My son will retire first!"

Without giving the opportunity to Nanmian King to intervene, Bei Juese finished speaking in one breath, and ran away as if fleeing.

Bei Juese ran down Feifeng Pavilion in one breath, as if he was afraid that Nanmian King would catch up from behind, and then ran back to the small courtyard where he lived in one breath.

Seeing him come back with his kicks, Meng Chao and Meng Qing looked at him with strange eyes, and then forgot about his back for a while before asking: "Why is your highness taking pictures in such a hurry? There is no strange thing behind Someone is chasing you."

Bei Juese took a few big gulps of air, and after recovering, he said, "My son, run to practice Qi."

Meng Qing blinked her eyes and looked at him puzzled, and asked, "There are many ways to practice Qi, why does His Highness insist on running?"

Bei Juese, who didn't want to continue to dwell on this question, waved his hand and said, "Don't ask, that's right, has the Eastern General Soldier come back yet?" , Bei Jue Se also first thought of talking to Dong Wudi.

Meng Chao forgot to glance at Dong Wudi's room, and said, "General Dong has not come back yet."

Dong Wudi protected Bei Jue Se and stayed after returning to Nanmian. The King of Nanmian appointed him the position of chief guard, responsible for managing all the soldiers in the palace and all the soldiers in the royal city.And after he became the chief soldier, he already lived in the same courtyard as Bei Juese and did not move.

He hasn't come back yet, so he should be training soldiers in the training ground.Bei Juese didn't think much about it, and walked straight to the training ground with her skirt up.

Soon after, we came to the training ground.Several teams of soldiers gathered on the large field and were seriously practicing offense and defense with each other, but after watching several laps, there was no Dong Wudi in the team.

Bei Jueser pulled a soldier who looked like a small captain to ask, "Is the Dong Zong Bing here?"

The soldier pointed to a path behind the training ground, and said, "The chief soldier went there."

Bei Juese walked over there quickly.After passing through that path, a small forest appeared not far ahead, and Dong Wudi was standing in the middle of the small forest.Upon closer inspection, I saw that he was holding a piece of paper that looked like a letter in his hand, looking up at the top of a tree with a lonely expression on his face in a daze.

Bei Juese slowed down and walked towards him, calling out: "Eldest brother."

Only then did Dong Wudi quickly put the one in his hand into his bosom as if waking up from a dream, turned his head to look at Bei Jue Se with a smile, and asked, "Why did you come here?"

Although he handled the paper quickly, Beijuse Haihuasi could tell that it was a letter sent by the second senior brother a few days ago.The letter said that this year's Mid-Autumn Festival will hold a mighty martial arts rookie selection contest, and asked Dong Wudi if he wanted to go back and preside over the overall situation.

Bei Juese didn't answer Dong Wudi's question, but asked: "Eldest brother, do you really want to participate in that great martial arts event?"

Dong Wudi smiled without showing traces of gentleness and said: "I want to caress you, the future king of Nanmian Kingdom here, so I don't have time to take care of the little things in the martial arts. Don't think too much, it's getting late , I have to go train that group of soldiers for a while. Brother, you can do it yourself, brother, I will go to work."

After speaking, he turned around and walked towards the training ground.

Although Dong Wudi is already a person who hides everything tightly, but the days of getting along are happy, and Bei Juese can show his thoughts as much as possible.Just like Fairy, although he said he doesn't care about the Central Plains martial arts, in fact, his heart has already drifted there.If he really didn't care so much, how could he read and reread the letter sent by the second senior brother?

Bei Jue Se looked at the back of Dong Wudi leaving, the figure of the boy who always liked to spoil one dream after another in front of him a long time ago, clearly appeared in front of his eyes again.

Eldest brother is a person who doesn't like to be restrained. He was locked up voluntarily as a soldier in Nanmian Palace for his own sake. This kind of unchanging life is not the life that elder brother likes to live with gardening.Eldest brother has done so many things for himself, now, shouldn't I do something for him?

That night, in the dead of night, a black figure sneaked into Dong Wudi's room.

From the moment the black shadow sneaked in, Dong Wudi noticed something, but he lay on the bed calmly and pretended to be asleep, knowing that the black shadow was close to his bed, his sword was immediately unsheathed, and he was at the black shadow's door On the neck, asked in a low voice: "Who is it? Report your name!"

Without the slightest fear, the black shadow whispered, "Elder brother, it's me."

Dong Wudi withdrew his sword, and asked suspiciously: "Junior Brother, what did you want to do in my room in the middle of the night?" I thought he was the only one who got into Bei Juese's room, but now he has come here, what's wrong with the world?

Let's get up and think about it while talking and turn on the light, but Bei Juese grabbed him and said: "Brother, pack up your things immediately, let's go out of the palace!"

"Leaving the palace? Where are you going?" Dong Wudi couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Bei Jue Se's gourd.

Bei Jue Se chuckled lightly in the dark, and said, "Go to participate in the grand event of the Central Plains martial arts!"

"What?" Dong Wudi suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.

Bei Juese gave him a back, and said, "Stop dawdling, let's go quickly before the others find out!"

Hearing the problem, Dong Wudi said a little impatiently: "You want to escape from the palace? You are the prince of Nanmian Kingdom. If you run away quietly like this, it will cause unnecessary commotion!"

Bei Jue Se said: "It's okay, I have already left a letter for my father to explain clearly, there is no problem."

"You are too foolish! We can't just sneak out like this! If we want to leave, we have to go and talk to King Nanmian first." Dong Wudi couldn't help but blamed.

Bei Juese said anxiously: "Elder brother, if I run away in a fair manner, I don't need to come to you in the middle of the night. The father just said today that he will choose a concubine for me. If I go to tell him at this time, he said that I am a concubine." If I want Li to go sightseeing in the mountains and rivers, to watch the excitement in the Central Plains Wulin, do you think he will let me go out of the palace?"

"Choose a concubine?!" Dong Wudi yelled in great reaction, "Okay then, let's go right away."

In just a split second, the old man changed his mind immediately, packed his luggage in the dark as quickly as possible, pulled Beijing up again, and said in a firm tone: "Let's go!"

Quietly opened the door and took a look outside, and saw that the palace guards outside were all lying on the ground in a disoriented state and fell asleep.

Bei Juese said softly: "Don't worry, I drugged them all and made them fall asleep."

Dong Wudi was a little disbelieving and forgot to take a look at Bei Juese, but said innocently and innocently: "There is no way, people will always have some unexpected instinctive reactions when they are in crisis."

Dong Wudi suddenly had the illusion that Bei Jue Se was a wolf in sheep's clothing.When did this silly and naive little junior start to know how to use some cunning tricks?

Before he could think too much, Bei Jue Se gently poked him and said, "Elder brother, let's go. I have already prepared the carriage outside the palace."

After speaking, walk ahead and lead the way.The two sneakily avoided the guards in the palace, and finally they successfully climbed out of the last palace wall.

The two walked towards the carriage, but suddenly they saw a person picked out from the carriage, stood in front of the two of them and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness, Dong Zongbing, if you sneak out of the palace to play, you don't count as my share." , isn’t it too embarrassing?”

Bei Juese stared at the person in front of him with wide eyes, and asked in disbelief, "Xiaoqing, why are you here, here?"

Meng Qing said brightly: "Your Highness, is it strange why I drank the drugged tea and didn't fall asleep? No way, I know your thoughts too well when I sleep? It's just me That silly brother will be tricked by you, obediently go to drink that questionable tea."

Bei Juese sneered and said, "Xiao Qing, Dong Zongbing and I have important things to do, not to play, you go back first, I will explain slowly when I come back, okay?"

Meng Qing laughed and said loudly, "His Royal Highness, when are you leaving the palace this time, when will you come back?"

Bei Juese quickly stepped forward to cover his mouth, and said repeatedly: "Don't be so loud! Xiaoqing, what exactly do you want?"

Meng Qing pulled Lai Jue-se's hand, winked and said, "I want to go on the road with you!"

Bei Jue Se looked to Dong Wudi for help, and Dong Wudi replied with a look of "it's because of you, I can find a way to solve it myself".

Bei Juese thought for a while, and said helplessly, "Okay, Xiaoqing, you can come too."

"His Royal Highness is the best!" Meng Qing flattered her, and quickly climbed into the carriage.

Bei Juese sighed secretly, and said to Dong Wudi: "Brother, let's go."

In the darkness, a carriage drove quickly in the night except for Nanmian City. At dawn, the car had already left Nanmian City. Facing the morning light, it was thinking about the distant front and quickly went to this area.

Meng Qing in the car was just like the last time she went to Daming, excitedly asking non-stop.Bei Juese, who had a headache from being asked, peeked at Dong Wudi, but saw him leaning against the carriage with his sword in his arms, as if he was sleeping soundly.

Bei Juese rubbed his aching head, pretending not to hear Meng Qing's question, and looked out the window.Originally, I thought about how to take a leisurely walk around Ji'ang Huli, and get a feel for what kind of place Ji'ang Hu is, but now, this wishful thinking has definitely been shattered.

Plans are never as fast as changes.Beijuese deserves the helpless appointment.

Looking at the morning light outside the window, Bei Juse suddenly remembered the dream she had before. In the dream, Jing'er once said that his destined person had appeared, and that the destined person who held his bracelet loved himself around.

Thinking of this, Bei Juese couldn't help turning his head to look at the two people in the carriage.If that dream was real, and that dream was real, that destined person should have been circling around him long ago, then, couldn't it be one of the two people beside him?

However, he has never seen Jinger's bracelet from the two people around him.

Bei Jue Se smiled, and then turned to look at the scenery outside the window.Or, it was just a dream, why bother to care too much?

What is it like to be with someone who is not destined?As long as you can trust and have a good person by your side, go where you want to go freely, and do what you want to do, that's enough.

Facing the hopeful morning light, running in the warm spring breeze, accompanied by a stylish and cool-faced senior brother, and following the troubled and surly girl Meng Qing, another part of Beijue's happiness is accompanied by both beauties and handsome men. The journey of life has unfolded magnificently.

Postscript This love can only become a memory - Zhu Yijun

The heavy palace is like shackles that cannot be shaken off one after another.

The spring flowers are red, the summer lotus is blooming, the autumn leaves are falling, and the winter snow is falling.Even though the beauties of the four seasons fall in the magnificent palace in turn and show off their various charms, Zhu Yijun still feels that the world is so lifeless and gloomy.

From the day when Beijuse left the Palace, his world lost all its colors.With a stagnant heart, he lived a life that the benevolent empress dowager would like to see, day after day, year after year.

The capital city in November is wrapped in thick snow.Zhu Yijun dressed in fox fur stood in front of the bedroom window and looked at the gloomy sky outside the window. After a long time, he let out a suppressed sigh.

Zhang Cheng hurried in, knelt down and said: "Report to the emperor, the tribute envoys from Nanmian Kingdom have entered the capital, and now they have settled down in the Huitong Hall."

Zhu Yijun immediately turned around, unable to hide the joy in his heart, and asked, "Is Prince Nanzhao going with you?"

Zhang Cheng lowered his head even lower, and said cautiously: "Back to the emperor, Prince Nanzhao did not go with him."

The hope and joy that Zhu Yijun had finally raised in his heart were ruthlessly shattered in an instant.He lowered his head in disappointment, looked at the belt in his hand that had not yet been embroidered with double dragons spitting beads, and muttered to himself: "Xiaobei, Xiaobei, have you made up your mind that you will never see me again for the rest of your life?" ? Xiaobei, Xiaobei, why are you so ruthless, I still can't forget you?"

Zhu Yijun laughed sadly.Zhang Cheng whispered uneasily: "Your Majesty..."

Zhu Yijun stopped laughing, turned around and walked outside the bedroom.Zhang Cheng quickly stood up and was about to follow, but Zhu Yijun said blankly: "You don't need to follow me, I want to go out for a walk alone!"

Although Zhang Cheng was worried, he still didn't dare to resist the order and said: "The servant obeys the order."

After leaving Qianqing Palace, Zhu Yijun walked aimlessly.He didn't pay attention to where he walked at all. He just walked forward when he saw a road ahead. He didn't know how long he walked until he felt tired before stopping.He raised his head to look at the surrounding environment and was stunned.Isn't this place the painting pool where he and Bei Jue Se met for the first time?

The place where we met for the first time couldn't help but become clear again in my mind, and my heart couldn't help throbbing.This place is still there, nothing has changed, but the stubborn and stubborn boy who once appeared in his life is now separated from him, and will never appear in front of his eyes again.

I thought that as the days passed, the pain hidden in my heart would slowly subside, but the pain was still so unforgettable.Zhu Yijun looked up on the tree pole and closed his eyes, trying not to let the uncontrollable tears fall from his eyes, trying not to remind himself of the past.

After a long time, the grief and pain in my heart gradually calmed down.Zhu Yijun stood under the tree for a long time, and finally walked back on the way he had come back dejectedly. At this moment, from nowhere came a few clear and clear laughter like silver bells.

Listening carefully, the laughter seemed to come from not far behind.For some reason, Zhu Yijun had an idea to step forward and find out, and he walked involuntarily to the place where the laughter came from.

After walking for a while, a small open space appeared not far ahead, and there were a few girls in the open space, accompanied by palace servants, making snowmen.

Zhu Yijun didn't want to disturb them, he just quietly approached and hid behind a tree to watch them.

No one noticed Zhu Yijun's arrival.

The gloomy weather didn't seem to affect the girls' interest at all.They were talking happily while making snowmen, and bursts of happy laughter from time to time.

Infected by the bright and carefree smiles on their faces, Zhu Yijun's depressed mood unknowingly eased a little, and he watched with interest as they fiddled with the snowman that was about to be completed.

A girl who had been turning her back to Zhu Yijun turned around and spoke to her companion. Seeing the girl's smiling face, Zhu Yijun's heart beat a few beats faster.That face with a smile as bright as the morning light, the eyebrows and eyes looked somewhat similar to the person he cared about so much in his heart!

Zhu Yijun stepped out from behind the tree recklessly, and strode towards the girl.

His appearance attracted everyone's attention.Everyone was taken aback by this unexpected visitor. After seeing who it was, everyone quickly knelt down and saluted in a panic. The girl, who was not as panicked as the others, glanced at Zhu Yijun with a pair of bright eyes. After that, he knelt down to salute calmly and calmly.

Zhu Yijun only had eyes on the girl, he walked past the crowd, walked up to the girl and helped her up, stared at her face, and asked softly, "Who are you?"
