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

Princess Gong Jing led Bei Juese into the inner room.

In the dimly lit inner room, apart from a bed with a green cloth curtain and an old wardrobe, there are large cloth racks for embroidery in other places where things can be placed, making the space that is not very big It looks narrower, and it feels a bit difficult for people to walk inside.

Embarrassed, Princess Gong Jing removed the two cloth shelves, opened a path, and said, "There are too many messy things in this room, Xiaobei, please be careful not to touch yourself." She walked through the cloth shelves as she spoke. , pushed open two closed windows.

After the window was opened, light flooded in, and the room was suddenly much brighter.The light shone on different cloth frames, and I saw that they were basically embroidered with different patterns. Only the cloth frame in the middle was not embroidered with flowers, but with a rough outline and The black eagle with half its wings spread its wings, and there are continuous blue mountains under the black eagle. Such a picture of a black eagle is particularly eye-catching in the embroidered pictures of flowers and plants.

Looking back and seeing Bei Juese's eyes on the eagle, Princess Gong Jing said: "I have been embroidering that picture for more than two years but I have not been able to embroider it well. I am not satisfied after embroidering it. Maybe it is because I have never embroidered it." It’s a chance to see what an eagle looks like up close.”

Bei Juese said with some surprise: "I didn't expect Jing'er that in addition to embroidering flowers, you would also be interested in embroidering eagles."

Princess Gong Jing smiled self-deprecatingly, looked up at the rainy sky outside the window, and said, "Actually, I have always imagined that an eagle can fly freely in the sky, flying to where I want to go, flying Go to different places to see the scenery of the world. Unfortunately, this wish cannot be realized in this lifetime.”

Looking at Princess Gong Jing's back, Bei Jue Se asked in bewilderment, "Why? As long as you have the determination, you will definitely be able to realize your wish."

Princess Gong Jing lowered her head sadly, and said: "I am a bird without wings imprisoned in the palace. Besides, even if there is no big cage like the palace, my weak body will not allow me to fly freely. It's pretty good to survive in this palace, so what right do you have to dream of soaring to the clouds and flying freely? It's because it's impossible in this life, so I embroidered such a picture of spreading my wings and flying high, and pinned my wish on this bird on Black Hawk."

Bei Juese didn't quite understand what the princess was talking about, but he could feel the sadness in her tone.Bei Jue Se asked cautiously: "Jing'er, are you unhappy here?"

Princess Gong Jing sighed, looked at her hands holding on to the window, forced a smile and said: "There is no one who is unhappy. For me, being able to live one more day is the greatest gift from God." She turned her head to look at Bei Jue, her expression became serious, "Xiao Bei, do you think there is such a thing as reincarnation in this world? Do people really have an afterlife?"

Unexpectedly, she would ask such a question. Bei Juese met her serious eyes, hesitated for a moment, and replied: "Yes, there should be. I heard from the master that after death, people will drink Mengpo tea and reincarnate. .”

Princess Gong Jing said: "If there is an afterlife, I really hope that I can decide my own life, have a healthy body, no longer need to be locked in a cage, and can freely go where I want to go, and can see the world prosperity." She stretched her hands out of the window to catch the falling rain, and smiled wryly, "Isn't such a wish too greedy?"

Looking at her thin back, Bei Juese felt a faint sadness slowly spread in this small space in the silent atmosphere.This feeling made him feel very uncomfortable, and such a silent Jing'er made him feel an inexplicable pain in his heart.He tried his best to smile, tried to comfort Princess Gong Jing and said: "Jing'er, if you are really unhappy in the palace, why not go to the place where I grew up and live for a while? I grew up in the mountains Yes, there are all kinds of birds and animals, a lot of flowers and trees, and occasionally hunters and woodcutters. You can live freely and without worries there; unlike this palace, there will always be someone in your ear While reminding you again and again to obey the rules, you must be bound by etiquette in all your actions, and you must be careful when speaking, always afraid of offending other people if you are not careful."

Princess Gong Jing turned around, opened her eyes wide and asked in disbelief, "Is there really such a place in this world?"

Bei Juese nodded and said, "Of course!"

Princess Gong Jing asked: "If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely go to the place you mentioned."

Bei Jue said: "Well! When the time comes, I will take you to play around the mountains! There are many places and things to play in the mountains, and there are many delicious wild fruits! If you like that place then , and you can live there for as long as you want!"

"Really?" The curiosity of Bei Jue Se's words was aroused, Princess Gong Jing's depression subconsciously receded, "What fun is there in the mountains?"

When it comes to the things in the mountains, Bei Juese can't help but dance with joy, and then she dances and talks endlessly. Princess Gong Jing, who has never seen the world outside the palace wall, also opened her curious eyes wide and listened intently. The expressive voice of Bei Juse vividly tells how the world in the mountains is a fun place, and interrupts Bei Juse's words from time to time to ask various questions with great interest.
