The power of rebirth
Work related (3)
Don't compete again in a few days, and gather enough energy to show your demeanor to the world on the day of your wedding! "
Ming Yuan nodded. During this period of time, he would go to Ye Qianshang every night to learn swordsmanship. Gradually, he also basically mastered the prince's previous martial arts, but his memory did not show any sign of recovery.
He also talked more with Ye Qianshang, before Ming Yuan asked a question and Ye Qianshang answered it.And during this time, that person will occasionally show rare warmth, and even leave him drunk.But Mingyuan found that every time he drank alcohol, he would inexplicably get more scars on his body and have some strange dreams.
In the end, Mingyuan concluded that the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty had an allergic constitution. Drinking alcohol made his skin red and itchy, and the color disappeared after a few days... No wonder I heard from Fugui that Situ Qing brought him the one who didn't drink too much before. That's the end of the bad...
Knowing this, Mingyuan also refrained from drinking, he would not drink as a last resort.
The author has something to say:
☆, prince wedding
March is already warm, and there is very little rain.
The night before the big wedding, Mingyuan chose a set of blue single clothes, taking advantage of the dead of night, avoiding the palace people and quietly going out.
When he arrived, Ye Qianshang was bowing his head and talking to a man in black, but the man in black disappeared immediately when he saw Ming Yuan approaching.
Mingyuan asked suspiciously, "So Qianshang also has other friends?"
Ye Qianshang didn't answer, but just stared at him, "Today's clothes are really chic."
Under this sudden compliment, Ming Yuan didn't know how to answer, and froze there motionless.
Ye Qianshang looked down at the jug in Ming Yuan's hand, "You didn't bring a sword"
Only then did Mingyuan lift the jug, "I only drink wine today." Mingyuan saw that the place was still dark and gloomy without any festive atmosphere, so he said, "The prince of the Northern Han Dynasty will get married tomorrow, don't you have any lanterns in your palace?"
Ye Qianshang immediately turned around, "The two-month period is over, you can go."
The night wind blew past, and Ye Qianshang's long hair scattered with the wind, leaving only Ming Yuan with a nearly blurred back.
"Qianshang...I brought wine." Ming Yuan followed up and grabbed Ye Qianshang's sleeve.
Ye Qianshang faltered, turned around and looked at Ming Yuan, wanting to refuse, "Wine?" Ming Yuan pulled him aside after finishing speaking
"I specially asked for this wine for you to drink." Ming Yuan picked up the wine glass and handed it to Qianshang.
Ye Qianshang hesitated for a moment, but still took the glass, "That's all..." Then he drank it down, "Good wine."
Mingyuan filled it up for him again, "Then you should drink more."
Seeing that Ming Yuan just poured wine for him but didn't drink it, Ye Qianshang said, "Why don't you drink it?"
"Ah... I... I can't drink." Ming Yuan smiled awkwardly.
"Why?" Ye Qianshang said while picking up the wine glass.
Ming Yuan said embarrassingly, "I'm dissatisfied with you, my body seems to be allergic to this wine. Every time I drink it, there will be various bright red marks on my body, and... and... anyway, I will be allergic to drinking."
"Cough cough..." Ye Qianshang suddenly spurted out the wine he drank, "Cough...have...allergies? Red spots?"
"Hehe, I made Qianshang laugh."
Ye Qianshang put down his wine glass, thinking in his heart, does he drink so heavily every time?
"Qianzhang... Qianshang? Why are you in a daze?" Mingyuan filled Qianshang again.
Ye Qianshang got up suddenly, "That's all for today, don't come looking for me again in the future, just leave now." As soon as the words fell, he disappeared.
Ming Yuan stood alone outside the palace with a jug, and looked at the place where Ye Qianshang disappeared, "Forget it, in his capacity, how long can a relationship like this last? It will be exposed one day, so why don't you take advantage of it?" It's good to break."
"Master, tomorrow is his wedding day, why not let Anu kill him tonight!" The man in black reappeared after Ming Yuan left.
With a click, Ye Qianshang casually pulled his black-clothed arm and stood up in the air as if he had lost his backbone, "Last time you pushed him into the moat privately, I haven't settled with you yet! This time I want to What? Huh?"
The man in black knelt on the ground with a plop, "Anu just wanted to help the master solve his problems, and didn't want the master to hurt himself by facing that man day and night."
"Since you know how I feel about him, why bother to make it difficult for me again." Ye Qianshang sighed, "Go on...the things to do tomorrow are much better. If there is nothing wrong this time, his Green Stream Sword It's yours." With a crackling sound, the man in black's arm returned to its original state.
"Ah... thank you master, how did the master know that Anu is against that sword..."
Ye Qianshang stroked Anu's head, "You never look at people more than once, but you never take your eyes off that person. If I didn't know that you are obsessed with swords, I'm afraid I might have misunderstood that you fell in love with him."
Anu scratched his head, "Hey...the master still understands Anu."
Ye Qianshang nodded, and touched the blood jade with his hand, "The entanglement of grievances and grievances of more than ten years... can't be resolved overnight."
***
The next day.
Mingyuan was called out at midnight, he squinted his eyes to take a bath and changed clothes, and was surrounded by crowds and stuffed into the carriage.
When he woke up, he had already held the hand of the beautiful woman...
After worshiping and getting married, Mingyuan needs three martial arts competitions before entering the bridal chamber.
In the arena of the martial arts competition, the opponents arranged seem to be formidable, but they are idiots. After all, the emperor will not let the current prince make a fool of himself in front of the world.Coupled with Mingyuan's hard work in the past few months, he is sure to win after several rounds.
After Ming Yuan finished the last round, he clasped his fists as a signal, and the audience burst into applause, followed by a deafening voice, "The prince is mighty, the prince is a thousand years old!"
"Good! You are worthy of being the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty!" The emperor sitting in the high hall said, "Reward! Haha"
After Mingyuan changed his clothes, he toasted the emperor, queen and all the guests according to the etiquette. He didn't want to drink but had to.
Ming Yuan almost drank and wanted to go back to the room to rest, but was stopped by a few princes. The person who came was the fifth prince, "Congratulations... The prince's swordsmanship today can be regarded as an eye-opener for my younger brother. If you are so anxious to go to the bridal chamber, don't be in a hurry to let me go. The Crown Princess will wait a little longer...to be ecstasy."
The thirteenth prince pulled the fifth prince away, "Fifth brother, don't talk nonsense" and then turned to Ming Yuan, "Brother Prince, I wish you and the concubine the crown prince a happy marriage for a hundred years and have a son soon."
Ming Yuan smiled and held up the wine glass, expressing his thanks.
Having said that, among the many princes, the thirteenth prince is considered to have a pure heart, he never fights with others, and treats him very well on weekdays.
"Haha... the prince is so brave in the martial arts field" the voice suddenly became quieter, "I wonder how your skills are in bed? As we all know, although the prince is older than our brothers, but the bed brother is like a virgin... Do you want us to be a little bit older?" A brother from the sidelines...haha" the fourth prince was half drunk and half awake talking nonsense.
Seeing that the fourth prince's words had lost their importance, the other princes quietly dispersed, hiding aside and waiting to see Ming Yuan's embarrassment.
Contrary to everyone's expectations, Mingyuan ignored the fourth prince without changing his face, and left...
Ming Yuan stopped at the gate of the palace covered with happy words, looking at the red inside the house, Xi Niang greeted at the door with a smile: "Prince, you are here, please go in quickly and don't let the bride wait in a hurry."
Mingyuan was a little nervous, he took the stick from Xi Niang's hand, and walked slowly into the hall, the red sandman was floating around, and the candlelight was flickering.
Seeing the author's graceful figure on the bright red bed from afar in the abyss of the underworld, Su... Ruyan
Getting closer, he could even smell the woman's body fragrance.
"The auspicious time has come, please ask the prince to lift the hipa for the princess..."
Ming Yuan held the gold-rimmed happy stick and slowly stretched it towards the red happy handkerchief.With the strength of his wrist, Xipa also floated to Mingyuan's feet.Mingyuan looked up along the Xipa under his feet, and the little shoes embroidered with gold silk phoenix were hidden in the skirt of the skirt...
The woman lowered her head, unable to see her face, Ming Yuan gently lifted the woman's chin with one hand...
With a slap, the joy stick in his hand fell to the ground, Ming Yuan stared blankly at the woman's face, the corners of his eyes were a little moist.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Mingyuan would not have believed that the person in front of him was exactly the same as his lover in modern times, except that the person in front of him was named Ruyan, and he felt more vulnerable.
"Prince...you want to see the princess and have time to watch it. It's time to have a glass of wine." Xi Niang came over with a wine glass.
Ming Yuan took the wine glass, crossed arms with the blushing bride, and slowly drank the wine.
"After drinking a cup of wine, the prince and concubine are husband and wife. From then on, they will never leave each other. A moment of spring|night is worth a thousand gold. The servants will not disturb the rest of the prince and concubine."
Ming Yuan kept staring at the person in front of him, his eyes never wanting to leave, like a lover reunited after a long absence.
"Prince...His Royal Highness" the woman called out coquettishly to Ming Yuan who had been staring at her.
Only then did Ming Yuan regain his senses, took the wine glass from the woman's hand, and placed it on the table.
The woman lowered her head and sat on the edge of the bed, silent.
"Ruyan..."
When the woman heard the voice, she looked up at Ming Yuan in surprise, "Prince...your voice."
"Oh...it's ready." Mingyuan held those little hands, "Ruyan...from now on, I, Mingyuan, will definitely live up to you!"
"Prince..." The woman responded softly.
Ming Yuan then pulled the curtain of the bed.
In the dormitory, the candles hissed and burned, and Shaman was blown back and forth with the shadow of the candles blown by the wind.
Ming Yuan comforted the woman's excited emotions, "Don't be afraid..."
In a trance, Mingyuan heard a commotion outside the bedroom, but those voices did not attract his attention.
Just then the door was kicked open...
In the darkness, Mingyuan couldn't see the appearance of the person coming.
"Presumptuous! Who? Get out!" Mingyuan roared angrily.
And the man stood there as if he didn't hear it.
The author has something to say:
☆, palace coup
In the darkness, Mingyuan couldn't see the appearance of the person coming.
"Presumptuous! Who? Get out!" Mingyuan roared angrily.
And the man stood there as if he didn't hear it.
Across the bed, the shadow of the candle flickered unsteadily, and the happy candle shone on the man's clothes, and the stitches of the golden thread could be vaguely seen on the crow-blue robe.Hidden in the shadows from the waist up, Mingyuan couldn't distinguish the man's face.
The man on the opposite side dragged his sword and slowly walked forward a few steps. Where the sword rubbed against the ground, there was a bloodstain.
"Prince..." The person below him was trembling with fright and crawled into his arms.
Ming Yuan comforted the woman, "Don't be afraid, it's just a slave who has lost his sense and went to the wrong place."
In the dormitory, there was no sound, only Mingyuan's heavy panting had not yet calmed down, the hissing candles were burning more vigorously, the wind came in through the gap in the door, and rushed on it in waves, blowing out the candles one by one.Ming Yuan felt a chill, and subconsciously pulled up the quilt that had receded to his waist.
"I'll say it again, get out of my bedroom!" Ming Yuan emphasized his tone.
Seeing that the man was unmoved, Ming Yuan immediately wrapped the quilt around the woman, pulled the clothes over her body, pulled out the Green Stream Sword from the bedside, and pointed at the figure in the darkness.
At this moment, Ming Yuan heard a whoosh, and the lit candles on the table were extinguished one after another, and the green smoke flew along the wind direction, and the air was filled with a slight burning smell.
"Prince, be careful..." A woman's concerned voice came from behind Mingyuan.
Ming Yuan drew his sword and stabbed at the man, but the man remained motionless. When the sword peak was an inch away from the man's body, Ming Yuan suddenly stopped, "Today is my happy day. The prince doesn't want to be stained with blood. If you are sensible, then you can't be bloody." Get out now!"
With a snap, the sword fell to the ground.
Ming Yuan didn't even have time to see how the sword was bounced to the ground, and then he felt a throbbing pain and numbness in his hand.Ming Yuan supported his trembling right hand and took a few steps back.
Such a strong effort, who is he?assassin?
Mingyuan immediately put his bare hands in a defensive posture, thinking about the moves that Qianshang taught him on weekdays.He took the initiative to attack and wanted to preemptively hit the man on the head with his fist, but his hand was caught by him.Ming Yuan struggled to break free, picked up a grand teacher's chair and threw it over, only to hear a crisp sound, the chair shattered under the man's feet.
"Who are you?" Mingyuan said to the figure in the darkness.
The man didn't answer him, but turned around and walked towards the bed.
"Ah... prince" the woman screamed.
, Ming Yuan saw through the man's intentions, and was about to step forward to stop him, when suddenly a man in black jumped off the beam and blocked his way.
"Master... leave this to Anu!"
"Ruyan..." Ming Yuan shouted the woman's name while fighting with the man in black.
Seeing that the man was about to leave the door with Ru Yan on his shoulders, Ming Yuan clenched his fists and rushed out fiercely, but he didn't expect to meet the fist that the man in black was swinging towards.
"Uh...like...smoke" Mingyuan covered his chest with one hand, the huge pain made him convulse all over, he slowly stood up, kicked again, and immediately the smell of blood overflowed from his mouth.
Mingyuan endured the severe pain and heard a sentence in a trance, "Don't... let him die."
Mingyuan looked along the place where the sound came from, and a vague figure was disappearing at the door. The figure seemed to have been seen a thousand times, and it seemed strange as if it was the first time.
A few hours later, Ming Yuan was lying on the ground, his whole body was wounded and he would tear his wounds, and his lips were bitten by him.
"Hmph... What's so good about you, but you're just a little bit better-looking, what's so worthy of my master treating you like this?" The man in black grabbed Mingyuan's hair and patted his bruised face disdainfully, " If my master hadn't protected you, I wouldn't have let you survive tonight."
Ming Yuan struggled to get rid of the hands that disgusted him, and the blood spat out from his mouth was soaked on the carpet covered with petals. The strong smell of blood and flowers made him unbearable. Fall down fast.His physical strength was severely overdrawn, and his body was covered in cuts and bruises.
"Ruyan..."
"Ruyan? Hehe... This country has changed hands, let alone a... a crown princess who hasn't bloomed yet? My master will help you finish the unfinished business." The man in black Evil smile.
Ming Yuan immediately got up again when he heard it, "Come... come" the somewhat hoarse voice echoed in the empty room.
"Even if you shout Potian, no one will come to save you, don't struggle."
Hehe... On the wedding night, his wife was blatantly taken away?What about palace people?Where's the guard?Why so quiet?People... where have they all gone?
What is this sound?It seems like a fire is burning the mountains and forests, and it seems like thousands of people are crying. Why is it so bright outside?He was so dazzled that he couldn't even open his eyes...
With the help of the firelight outside the house, Mingyuan could see clearly the man in black who had been fighting with him all night. The man's hair was disheveled, he was extremely thin, and his face was so pale that it reminded him of death.His body was covered with a whole piece of black cloth, and his eyes were full of evil spirits... For some reason, Mingyuan suddenly thought of Ye Qianshang for this feeling.
At this moment, the man in black looked out of the window, the flames were soaring into the sky, but he smiled brightly, "Master finally got his wish... Haha, happy!" Then his eyes seemed a little moist.
Ming Yuan looked at the man in black smiling almost madly, as if ghostly shadows kept wandering towards him.
Hei still punched Ming Yuan's chest without any warning, "This punch is to recover the suffering my master has suffered in the past ten years!"
"Hmm..." Mingyuan suddenly felt the pain of the broken ribs piercing into the internal organs.
A puddle of blood was spat on the ground again, Mingyuan was severely injured, and every cell in his body seemed to be screaming.Consciousness gradually became blurred, and the scene of being taken away like smoke kept appearing in my mind.
what happens?My eyes are so heavy, I really want to sleep... I can't sleep, Ruyan is still waiting for me... Qianshang...
In a trance, like in a dream, he heard a child calling his brother...
What kind of smell... a faint fragrance.
Ming Yuan opened his eyes, the bright yellow brocade with dragon patterns on the bed made him feel a little more at ease, at least he was still in the palace.
Lifting the curtain of the bed, a few court ladies in plain clothes held their folded clothes, "My lord, you are awake."
Mingyuan looked at the unfamiliar furnishings around him. The spacious bedroom and the hall were only separated by a layer of white gauze and bead chains. There seemed to be someone drinking tea outside...
"Where is this? Who are you?" Ming Yuan slowly sat up with his body propped up.
"My lord, this is Wangyou Palace, a small island above the emerald lake. We are arranged by the master to take care of you." The maid opened the folded clothes and put them on for Mingyuan.
"Hmm..." When he raised his arm, the wound was torn, causing Ming Yuan to sweat coldly from the pain.
The sharp pain reminded him of what happened on the wedding night.
"Ruyan... Where is Ruyan?" Mingyuan suddenly grabbed the arm of a court lady, feeling a little out of control.
"My lord... My lord, this servant doesn't know what Ruyan is... ah...Young master, you are hurting this servant."
Mingyuan slowly let go of the maid and calmed down, "I am the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty, and Ruyan is my concubine, how could you not know?"
The two maids looked at each other, one of them was obviously taken aback, and stammered, "My lord... I really don't know that you are the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty... and I don't know where the concubine is. And... and this Northern Han Dynasty is no longer the Northern Han Dynasty. Han, the emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty passed away three days ago, don’t you know, our Seventeenth Lord is in charge now, that is, the seventeenth prince of the former emperor, Ming Han.”
"What? Change of owner? Ming... Han?" Ming Yuan sat down on the bed all of a sudden, his ears buzzing, "Are you kidding me... the seventeenth prince??" Ming Yuan suddenly remembered something, "He is only ten years old... how is it possible ?”
The maid helped Ming Yuan up, "Ten years old? Who said ten years old, the current emperor is 19 years old. It was read out at the enthronement ceremony."
"Don't tell me, the current emperor looks really extraordinary." Another court lady interjected.
"That's right, our Seventeenth Lord is simply a fairy descending from the earth."
Ming Yuan held his head, he couldn't figure it out, and he even wondered if he had traveled to the previous life or the next life of the Northern Han Dynasty.But these court ladies know that he is the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty... It is obvious that he did not continue to travel.
"Why am I here? Who sent me here? I have to go to Changle Palace... Ruyan is still there." Ming Yuan said and was about to walk out of the house.
"Yo...His Royal Highness, where are you going? How did you sleep?"
Ming Yuan turned around and saw Eunuch Zhao, the chief eunuch who had been with his father all day, coming here.
"Eunuch Zhao?"
Eunuch Zhao sneered, "His Royal Highness really has a good memory and never forgets the old slave. The old slave is really moved." Then he reached out and touched Ming Yuan's pale face, "Look, this pretty face is haggard What has become, the old servant feels distressed when he sees it."
"Presumptuous!" Ming Yuan knocked off the shriveled palm on his face, and took a step back.
"Haha..." Eunuch Zhao laughed wildly at first, and then immediately said with a dark face, "Huh...don't be arrogant, this country has changed masters, and your former prince is quite tempered." Then the eunuch took out The imperial decree inlaid with gold, "Following the heaven, the emperor ordered to abolish the former prince Mingyuan, and move it to Wangyou Palace and give it to Wende Palace from now on. Hereby..." Eunuch Zhao put away the imperial decree and handed it to Mingyuan , "Prince... accept the order."
Ming Yuan stood there staring at the imperial decree, "My father...has he really gone? My mother...and Ruyan, they..."
Eunuch Zhao: "Oh... your father was very quiet when he left, and he didn't suffer much. As for your mother, you don't have to worry anymore... The current emperor left early when he was young. When he ascended the throne, he already made your mother the queen Empress Dowager."
Ming Yuan let go of his hanging heart, "That's good...it's good that the queen mother is fine. Then how is my princess, Su Ruyan, the daughter of Prime Minister Su?"
Eunuch Zhao suddenly looked at Mingyuan with a full smile, and said after a while, "The holy majesty has issued an imperial decree to make Su Ruyan the concubine of the Northern Han Dynasty...Ming." Then he patted Mingyuan on the shoulder, "Don't stick to the past, if Forcing will only increase worries."
With a bang, the imperial decree in Mingyuan's hand fell to the ground.
"Ming... Concubine Ming?" Mingyuan suddenly grabbed Eunuch Zhao's collar, "You are talking nonsense! Ruyan is my concubine! How could it be Concubine Ming... How could it be possible!" Mingyuan suddenly laughed, " What is the Holy One? What is the seventeenth prince? They are all lies! My seventeenth brother is only ten years old, so how can he be registered as a concubine? So what..."
Eunuch Zhao ruthlessly pushed Ming Yuan aside, then rubbed his clothes, "Huh... believe it or not, let's go!"
Click, the door was closed, and the sound of heavy chains came into Mingyuan's ears.
"You guys take turns, if anything goes wrong, watch out for your lives!"
"Yes!"
Mingyuan fell to his knees on the ground, not knowing whether it was because of the intense pain in his body or because his emotions were hard to restrain after so many things happened, and the ground began to become wet.
"Ruyan... father and queen... mother and queen."
late at night.
Ming Yuan was still kneeling there, with his untied long hair hanging behind his back, and his eyes were a little dull.
Clang, squeak...
The door was opened, and someone came here.
Ming Yuan slowly raised his head, and sneered after seeing the appearance of the person, "Are you here to kill me? Just kill me if you want to. I've already died once, and it doesn't matter if I die again."
"Kill you? Hmph... If I wanted to kill you, you wouldn't come out of the moat alive. If I wanted to kill you, you wouldn't kneel today and let me admire your embarrassment."
The veins on Mingyuan's forehead twitched, and he stood up slowly, "Is there really a traitor who intends to murder me?" Suddenly he caught a glimpse of the Green Stream Sword in the person's hand, and his eyes suddenly revealed a trace of hatred, " Who is the master in your mouth?"
The man in black played with the sword in his hand, "You will know sooner or later, but not now. Although the master won't let me kill you, but you remember for me the head of you, the deposed prince, and I will come to take the head at any time."
Ming Yuan: "If you don't kill me, then why are you here...?"
The man in black took out a piece from his arms and handed it to Ming Yuan, "Return it to its original owner."
Ming Yuan took it, it was a piece of blood jade with a sense of age, but the shape was worn out so that it could not be seen clearly.A flash passed through his mind, as if he remembered someone wearing it, but couldn't.
"This is……"
"If you want to see your mother or other things, you only need to hang it at the window every day, and someone will take you there." After speaking, the man in black disappeared like a gust of wind.
Hehe, always like to play this kind of game... interesting?Interesting... who the hell are you?
Ming Yuan held the piece of blood jade, and slammed it against the wall fiercely, the blood stained the blood jade along the gap between his fingers...
The next day, the door was opened, and several court ladies and eunuchs walked in.
"My lord, let this maidservant wash you up. The flowers in the yard are in full bloom. I'll take you to have a look after you finish your breakfast. My master has ordered you to take good care of you."
Ming Yuan leaned against the corner of the wall, hadn't slept all night, his eyes were bloodshot, "Go out...I'm not hungry."
"Eat even if you are not hungry, how can you gain strength if you don't eat, how can you practice martial arts if you don't have strength, how can you protect your loved one without martial arts, how can you repay the hatred of the family and the country?" A familiar nagging voice came into Ming Yuan's ears .
Ming Yuan looked up and saw Situ Qing still smiling on his usual face, walking over with a jug in his hand...but he was wearing an official uniform.
"Situ Qing?" Ming Yuan immediately got up and walked over quickly, "How are you doing? Did they make things difficult for you?"
Situ Qing's eyes were moist, "Prince, don't worry, Situ is fine." After speaking, he touched the scabbed scar on Mingyuan's face, "It's just that the prince...is suffering, Situ is late!"
Ming Yuan stepped back to avoid Situ Qing's concern, "I'm not in the way, how did you get in? What happened? How did the Seventeenth Brother become emperor? Who is Ming Han? My father ...how did he die?"
Situ Qing put the jug on the table, turned away from the left and right, "Prince... you and I never thought of today's ending, alas... I also heard what the old man in the palace said... It all started 15 years ago, when Your father is just a prince, and your mother and queen are the main family. Your father and the maid of the palace secretly married each other. They were in love for life and became pregnant. Your mother didn't know about it until after the child was born. After all, this child is Your father's flesh and blood, your mother will definitely not kill him because of your father's face. But that girl... Later, for some reason, that girl was executed by your mother, and no one has seen that child again..."
Ming Yuan was shocked, "Didn't my father protect that woman?"
Situ Qing filled the wine glass and handed it to Ming Yuan, "Isn't it easy to convict a person, besides, what a smart person your mother is?"
Ming Yuan gulped it down, "That child is..."
"Yes...he is the current emperor...Minghan! The real seventeenth prince."'
Ming Yuan looked suspicious: "The palace has never heard anything about him, how did he manage to change hands of the Northern Han Dynasty?"
Situ Qing stood up, walked to the window and said, "Look at the acacia and peanuts here are very prosperous."
Ming Yuan heard the sound and followed, the Albizia juliensis outside the window covered the sky and the sun, the thick branches and leaves covered the entire courtyard, and the ground was also covered with a thick layer.
No wonder, I have been smelling a fragrance...
"Albizia julibrissin was originally a forbidden flower in the palace. The specific reason for the forbidden flower may have something to do with the current emperor! Who can hide from people's sight and cut off the news... and secretly form a party for personal gain, and even annexed the entire Northern Han Dynasty ! And because the emerald lake is far away from the center of the imperial palace, the terrain is extremely low, and it is surrounded by smog all the year round. It is not safe for the emperor to travel, so it was abandoned later, but it is still connected to some important secret passages of the Northern Han imperial palace."
Ming Yuan frowned tightly, and twisted a silk julienne flower on the window sill, "How could those subjects who are loyal to my father be willing to submit? And those generals who hold military power!"
"Hehe...surrender? They don't have this chance. All officials above the third rank will take off their crowns and wear feathers. They will either kill the nine clans or send them to the frontier. They will either die or be disabled. It's terrible." Situ Qing sighed, "And those who hold military power All of your generals were poisoned the night before your wedding, so it can be said that those who follow others prosper, and those who oppose others perish."
Ming Yuan slowly crushed the flower in his palm, with a painful expression on his face, "What should I do..."
Situ Qing turned to Ming Yuan, "Preserving the prince's life is the most important thing now. If you are safe, the Northern Han Dynasty still has a chance! And the only one who survived above the third-rank officials is Prime Minister Su..."
Ming Yuan suddenly stared at Situ Qing and asked, "Then how did you escape his clutches? Isn't it you who walked closest to the prince?"
Situ Qing didn't evade either, "A good bird chooses a tree to live in, but my heart belongs to the prince forever, otherwise I wouldn't be here today to analyze the court situation with the prince."
Now even Situ Qing was bought by that person?Or is it his plan to delay the attack?Now... Who is the trustworthy person?
"Let's go, and don't come back again." Mingyuan sat back on his seat and stared at the wine glass, "Get closer to me for a moment, and you will be three points in danger."
Situ Qing looked at Ming Yuan, who was drinking alone, and was suddenly shocked, "Prince, are you able to speak?"
Ming Yuan smiled and looked around, "So what, it's not like being a prisoner of others!"
Situ Qing wanted to say something else, but seeing Ming Yuan like this, she had no choice but to leave silently.When he walked to the door, he met a man in black, holding the Prince's Green Stream Sword in his hand.
"Stop... That sword belongs to His Highness the Crown Prince." Situ Qing grabbed the man in black's arm, "Hurry back!"
The man in black immediately locked Situ Qing on the door with his backhand. The man in black looked at the man in front of him who looked like a green onion, and wanted to kill him with a sword, but now the sword stopped on the man's neck Do not do it.
"..." Situ Qing watched the evil look in the black man's eyes, and felt cold sweat all over his body. This was the first time he saw this person.
At this time, Ming Yuan in the room said to the man in black, "Don't hurt him..." Then he turned around and continued drinking, "You go back first."
Only then did the man in black let go of his hand, "This is the tribute incense from the Western Regions given to you by the Queen Mother. Slight it every day before nightfall to soothe your nerves and fall asleep. Don't forget." The man in black put down his things and left, casting a sideways glance Standing by the door, Situ Qing kept staring at him.
"Mother..." Ming Yuan tremblingly touched the plate of things.
***
At night, Mingyuan took a stick of incense, lit it with a candle, and put it in the incense burner.The scent is a bit different from the usual one, and there is also a scent of silk juniper flowers...
He fell asleep after smelling the fragrance.A few hours later, Mingyuan woke up from his sleep, feeling a little hot, so he took off his coat, took the blood jade and went out. This was the first time he stepped out of this hall.
It is early summer, and there is a strong smell of Albizia julibrissin in the air.
This Wangyou Palace is huge, but there are few people, giving people a decadent and decadent feeling.Out of the courtyard of Wende Hall, there are two passages, one is the main road and the other is a deep path.
Mingyuan walked along the path, and when he was tired from walking, he sat on the stone platform to rest, and caught a glimpse of an ancient temple next to him.
Ming Yuan raised his head, "Wangyou Palace? Hmph... how can a person like me forget worries?"
The main hall door was half-closed, and it was pitch black everywhere.
Could it be the queen mother?He is locked here, maybe the queen mother is really inside.
Ming Yuan quickened his pace, the light in the hall was very dark, and the courtyard was also blocked by the silk tree, he looked around, only one room had light.
Mingyuan walked slowly towards that room, gently pushed open the door, there were countless sandman floating in the empty room, and a lamp was burning flickeringly through the sandman...
In a trance, Mingyuan seemed to hear a heavy breathing, and seemed to hear another woman's sobbing.
mother?
Mingyuan walked very slowly until he kicked something... The sandman kept hitting him on the face, peeling off layers of sandman, and the candle flame jumped... The candle light shone on the bed, Mingyuan didn't know it was a candle Is the fire jumping or the bed itself shaking...
"Hmm..." A woman's voice reached Ming Yuan's ears.
"Ruyan..."
Mingyuan lifted the veil violently with joy, but was surprised to find a pair of ketone bodies entangled together, and a scene that almost made him despair.
With a bang, the thing in Ming Yuan's hand fell to the ground, waking up the woman. The woman opened her eyes and met those sad eyes, "Prince..."
When Mingyuan heard Ruyan calling him, he immediately turned around and ran out stumbling, tearing the gauze along the way...
At this time, a figure of a man stepped down from the bed, bent down to pick up the blood jade on the ground, and the candlelight reflected that cold, charming and even evil face.
The author has something to say:
☆, Beacon in Troubled Times
At this time, a figure of a man stepped down from the bed, bent down to pick up the blood jade on the ground, and the candlelight reflected that cold, charming and even evil face.
The man touched the piece of jade, looked at Ming Yuan's receding back from the window, his mouth curled up slightly, "Yuan...we will meet soon."
"Please... Please let me go. I was born to belong to the prince, and I will die to be the prince's ghost." The woman rolled out of the bed wrapped in the quilt, and shouted heart-piercingly by pulling the hem of the man's clothes.
The man helped the woman up from the ground and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "But you are mine tonight, and you can only be mine from now on." The man stretched out his hand to stroke the woman's hair, "You are already the North Ming Concubine of the Han Dynasty, not the Crown Princess."
The woman was trembling all over, her hair was stuck to her face with tears, "Why...why did you do this to me?"
The man turned around and fastened his clothes, walked into the shadows, and said to a wrinkled painting on the wall, "Just because he loves the person in this painting, and the person in this painting is you." The man slowly approached Woman, "Why are you crying? Have I been rude to you? As long as you stay quietly by my side, your clansmen will save their lives because of you, and even rise to the top because of you. Not only will your father not have to die, but he can continue to serve in the court Be an official."
The woman seemed to understand something, her emotions gradually calmed down, and she slowly lay back on the bed, "Your majesty...the concubine understands."
The man did not continue to return to the bed, but disappeared into the night with the painting in his hand, "Go to rest early."
Mingyuan came out of the ancient temple and ran along the road until the end, until the sound of gurgling water sounded in his ears.
There is a thick fog in front of my eyes, and a bottomless lake under my feet. The night is thick and there is no light.Ming Yuan frowned, and suddenly fell to his knees in the soil, holding his head tightly with both hands, and turned his back to the sky.That unbearable picture, that heavy breathing, that thing that should belong to him...but now he was snatched away naked by others, but he ran here timidly.His heart aches for his own cowardice, for the loss of a loved one, and for his own powerlessness.
He was an ordinary person in the future world, but for some reason he was transmigrated into this history book
Ming Yuan nodded. During this period of time, he would go to Ye Qianshang every night to learn swordsmanship. Gradually, he also basically mastered the prince's previous martial arts, but his memory did not show any sign of recovery.
He also talked more with Ye Qianshang, before Ming Yuan asked a question and Ye Qianshang answered it.And during this time, that person will occasionally show rare warmth, and even leave him drunk.But Mingyuan found that every time he drank alcohol, he would inexplicably get more scars on his body and have some strange dreams.
In the end, Mingyuan concluded that the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty had an allergic constitution. Drinking alcohol made his skin red and itchy, and the color disappeared after a few days... No wonder I heard from Fugui that Situ Qing brought him the one who didn't drink too much before. That's the end of the bad...
Knowing this, Mingyuan also refrained from drinking, he would not drink as a last resort.
The author has something to say:
☆, prince wedding
March is already warm, and there is very little rain.
The night before the big wedding, Mingyuan chose a set of blue single clothes, taking advantage of the dead of night, avoiding the palace people and quietly going out.
When he arrived, Ye Qianshang was bowing his head and talking to a man in black, but the man in black disappeared immediately when he saw Ming Yuan approaching.
Mingyuan asked suspiciously, "So Qianshang also has other friends?"
Ye Qianshang didn't answer, but just stared at him, "Today's clothes are really chic."
Under this sudden compliment, Ming Yuan didn't know how to answer, and froze there motionless.
Ye Qianshang looked down at the jug in Ming Yuan's hand, "You didn't bring a sword"
Only then did Mingyuan lift the jug, "I only drink wine today." Mingyuan saw that the place was still dark and gloomy without any festive atmosphere, so he said, "The prince of the Northern Han Dynasty will get married tomorrow, don't you have any lanterns in your palace?"
Ye Qianshang immediately turned around, "The two-month period is over, you can go."
The night wind blew past, and Ye Qianshang's long hair scattered with the wind, leaving only Ming Yuan with a nearly blurred back.
"Qianshang...I brought wine." Ming Yuan followed up and grabbed Ye Qianshang's sleeve.
Ye Qianshang faltered, turned around and looked at Ming Yuan, wanting to refuse, "Wine?" Ming Yuan pulled him aside after finishing speaking
"I specially asked for this wine for you to drink." Ming Yuan picked up the wine glass and handed it to Qianshang.
Ye Qianshang hesitated for a moment, but still took the glass, "That's all..." Then he drank it down, "Good wine."
Mingyuan filled it up for him again, "Then you should drink more."
Seeing that Ming Yuan just poured wine for him but didn't drink it, Ye Qianshang said, "Why don't you drink it?"
"Ah... I... I can't drink." Ming Yuan smiled awkwardly.
"Why?" Ye Qianshang said while picking up the wine glass.
Ming Yuan said embarrassingly, "I'm dissatisfied with you, my body seems to be allergic to this wine. Every time I drink it, there will be various bright red marks on my body, and... and... anyway, I will be allergic to drinking."
"Cough cough..." Ye Qianshang suddenly spurted out the wine he drank, "Cough...have...allergies? Red spots?"
"Hehe, I made Qianshang laugh."
Ye Qianshang put down his wine glass, thinking in his heart, does he drink so heavily every time?
"Qianzhang... Qianshang? Why are you in a daze?" Mingyuan filled Qianshang again.
Ye Qianshang got up suddenly, "That's all for today, don't come looking for me again in the future, just leave now." As soon as the words fell, he disappeared.
Ming Yuan stood alone outside the palace with a jug, and looked at the place where Ye Qianshang disappeared, "Forget it, in his capacity, how long can a relationship like this last? It will be exposed one day, so why don't you take advantage of it?" It's good to break."
"Master, tomorrow is his wedding day, why not let Anu kill him tonight!" The man in black reappeared after Ming Yuan left.
With a click, Ye Qianshang casually pulled his black-clothed arm and stood up in the air as if he had lost his backbone, "Last time you pushed him into the moat privately, I haven't settled with you yet! This time I want to What? Huh?"
The man in black knelt on the ground with a plop, "Anu just wanted to help the master solve his problems, and didn't want the master to hurt himself by facing that man day and night."
"Since you know how I feel about him, why bother to make it difficult for me again." Ye Qianshang sighed, "Go on...the things to do tomorrow are much better. If there is nothing wrong this time, his Green Stream Sword It's yours." With a crackling sound, the man in black's arm returned to its original state.
"Ah... thank you master, how did the master know that Anu is against that sword..."
Ye Qianshang stroked Anu's head, "You never look at people more than once, but you never take your eyes off that person. If I didn't know that you are obsessed with swords, I'm afraid I might have misunderstood that you fell in love with him."
Anu scratched his head, "Hey...the master still understands Anu."
Ye Qianshang nodded, and touched the blood jade with his hand, "The entanglement of grievances and grievances of more than ten years... can't be resolved overnight."
***
The next day.
Mingyuan was called out at midnight, he squinted his eyes to take a bath and changed clothes, and was surrounded by crowds and stuffed into the carriage.
When he woke up, he had already held the hand of the beautiful woman...
After worshiping and getting married, Mingyuan needs three martial arts competitions before entering the bridal chamber.
In the arena of the martial arts competition, the opponents arranged seem to be formidable, but they are idiots. After all, the emperor will not let the current prince make a fool of himself in front of the world.Coupled with Mingyuan's hard work in the past few months, he is sure to win after several rounds.
After Ming Yuan finished the last round, he clasped his fists as a signal, and the audience burst into applause, followed by a deafening voice, "The prince is mighty, the prince is a thousand years old!"
"Good! You are worthy of being the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty!" The emperor sitting in the high hall said, "Reward! Haha"
After Mingyuan changed his clothes, he toasted the emperor, queen and all the guests according to the etiquette. He didn't want to drink but had to.
Ming Yuan almost drank and wanted to go back to the room to rest, but was stopped by a few princes. The person who came was the fifth prince, "Congratulations... The prince's swordsmanship today can be regarded as an eye-opener for my younger brother. If you are so anxious to go to the bridal chamber, don't be in a hurry to let me go. The Crown Princess will wait a little longer...to be ecstasy."
The thirteenth prince pulled the fifth prince away, "Fifth brother, don't talk nonsense" and then turned to Ming Yuan, "Brother Prince, I wish you and the concubine the crown prince a happy marriage for a hundred years and have a son soon."
Ming Yuan smiled and held up the wine glass, expressing his thanks.
Having said that, among the many princes, the thirteenth prince is considered to have a pure heart, he never fights with others, and treats him very well on weekdays.
"Haha... the prince is so brave in the martial arts field" the voice suddenly became quieter, "I wonder how your skills are in bed? As we all know, although the prince is older than our brothers, but the bed brother is like a virgin... Do you want us to be a little bit older?" A brother from the sidelines...haha" the fourth prince was half drunk and half awake talking nonsense.
Seeing that the fourth prince's words had lost their importance, the other princes quietly dispersed, hiding aside and waiting to see Ming Yuan's embarrassment.
Contrary to everyone's expectations, Mingyuan ignored the fourth prince without changing his face, and left...
Ming Yuan stopped at the gate of the palace covered with happy words, looking at the red inside the house, Xi Niang greeted at the door with a smile: "Prince, you are here, please go in quickly and don't let the bride wait in a hurry."
Mingyuan was a little nervous, he took the stick from Xi Niang's hand, and walked slowly into the hall, the red sandman was floating around, and the candlelight was flickering.
Seeing the author's graceful figure on the bright red bed from afar in the abyss of the underworld, Su... Ruyan
Getting closer, he could even smell the woman's body fragrance.
"The auspicious time has come, please ask the prince to lift the hipa for the princess..."
Ming Yuan held the gold-rimmed happy stick and slowly stretched it towards the red happy handkerchief.With the strength of his wrist, Xipa also floated to Mingyuan's feet.Mingyuan looked up along the Xipa under his feet, and the little shoes embroidered with gold silk phoenix were hidden in the skirt of the skirt...
The woman lowered her head, unable to see her face, Ming Yuan gently lifted the woman's chin with one hand...
With a slap, the joy stick in his hand fell to the ground, Ming Yuan stared blankly at the woman's face, the corners of his eyes were a little moist.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Mingyuan would not have believed that the person in front of him was exactly the same as his lover in modern times, except that the person in front of him was named Ruyan, and he felt more vulnerable.
"Prince...you want to see the princess and have time to watch it. It's time to have a glass of wine." Xi Niang came over with a wine glass.
Ming Yuan took the wine glass, crossed arms with the blushing bride, and slowly drank the wine.
"After drinking a cup of wine, the prince and concubine are husband and wife. From then on, they will never leave each other. A moment of spring|night is worth a thousand gold. The servants will not disturb the rest of the prince and concubine."
Ming Yuan kept staring at the person in front of him, his eyes never wanting to leave, like a lover reunited after a long absence.
"Prince...His Royal Highness" the woman called out coquettishly to Ming Yuan who had been staring at her.
Only then did Ming Yuan regain his senses, took the wine glass from the woman's hand, and placed it on the table.
The woman lowered her head and sat on the edge of the bed, silent.
"Ruyan..."
When the woman heard the voice, she looked up at Ming Yuan in surprise, "Prince...your voice."
"Oh...it's ready." Mingyuan held those little hands, "Ruyan...from now on, I, Mingyuan, will definitely live up to you!"
"Prince..." The woman responded softly.
Ming Yuan then pulled the curtain of the bed.
In the dormitory, the candles hissed and burned, and Shaman was blown back and forth with the shadow of the candles blown by the wind.
Ming Yuan comforted the woman's excited emotions, "Don't be afraid..."
In a trance, Mingyuan heard a commotion outside the bedroom, but those voices did not attract his attention.
Just then the door was kicked open...
In the darkness, Mingyuan couldn't see the appearance of the person coming.
"Presumptuous! Who? Get out!" Mingyuan roared angrily.
And the man stood there as if he didn't hear it.
The author has something to say:
☆, palace coup
In the darkness, Mingyuan couldn't see the appearance of the person coming.
"Presumptuous! Who? Get out!" Mingyuan roared angrily.
And the man stood there as if he didn't hear it.
Across the bed, the shadow of the candle flickered unsteadily, and the happy candle shone on the man's clothes, and the stitches of the golden thread could be vaguely seen on the crow-blue robe.Hidden in the shadows from the waist up, Mingyuan couldn't distinguish the man's face.
The man on the opposite side dragged his sword and slowly walked forward a few steps. Where the sword rubbed against the ground, there was a bloodstain.
"Prince..." The person below him was trembling with fright and crawled into his arms.
Ming Yuan comforted the woman, "Don't be afraid, it's just a slave who has lost his sense and went to the wrong place."
In the dormitory, there was no sound, only Mingyuan's heavy panting had not yet calmed down, the hissing candles were burning more vigorously, the wind came in through the gap in the door, and rushed on it in waves, blowing out the candles one by one.Ming Yuan felt a chill, and subconsciously pulled up the quilt that had receded to his waist.
"I'll say it again, get out of my bedroom!" Ming Yuan emphasized his tone.
Seeing that the man was unmoved, Ming Yuan immediately wrapped the quilt around the woman, pulled the clothes over her body, pulled out the Green Stream Sword from the bedside, and pointed at the figure in the darkness.
At this moment, Ming Yuan heard a whoosh, and the lit candles on the table were extinguished one after another, and the green smoke flew along the wind direction, and the air was filled with a slight burning smell.
"Prince, be careful..." A woman's concerned voice came from behind Mingyuan.
Ming Yuan drew his sword and stabbed at the man, but the man remained motionless. When the sword peak was an inch away from the man's body, Ming Yuan suddenly stopped, "Today is my happy day. The prince doesn't want to be stained with blood. If you are sensible, then you can't be bloody." Get out now!"
With a snap, the sword fell to the ground.
Ming Yuan didn't even have time to see how the sword was bounced to the ground, and then he felt a throbbing pain and numbness in his hand.Ming Yuan supported his trembling right hand and took a few steps back.
Such a strong effort, who is he?assassin?
Mingyuan immediately put his bare hands in a defensive posture, thinking about the moves that Qianshang taught him on weekdays.He took the initiative to attack and wanted to preemptively hit the man on the head with his fist, but his hand was caught by him.Ming Yuan struggled to break free, picked up a grand teacher's chair and threw it over, only to hear a crisp sound, the chair shattered under the man's feet.
"Who are you?" Mingyuan said to the figure in the darkness.
The man didn't answer him, but turned around and walked towards the bed.
"Ah... prince" the woman screamed.
, Ming Yuan saw through the man's intentions, and was about to step forward to stop him, when suddenly a man in black jumped off the beam and blocked his way.
"Master... leave this to Anu!"
"Ruyan..." Ming Yuan shouted the woman's name while fighting with the man in black.
Seeing that the man was about to leave the door with Ru Yan on his shoulders, Ming Yuan clenched his fists and rushed out fiercely, but he didn't expect to meet the fist that the man in black was swinging towards.
"Uh...like...smoke" Mingyuan covered his chest with one hand, the huge pain made him convulse all over, he slowly stood up, kicked again, and immediately the smell of blood overflowed from his mouth.
Mingyuan endured the severe pain and heard a sentence in a trance, "Don't... let him die."
Mingyuan looked along the place where the sound came from, and a vague figure was disappearing at the door. The figure seemed to have been seen a thousand times, and it seemed strange as if it was the first time.
A few hours later, Ming Yuan was lying on the ground, his whole body was wounded and he would tear his wounds, and his lips were bitten by him.
"Hmph... What's so good about you, but you're just a little bit better-looking, what's so worthy of my master treating you like this?" The man in black grabbed Mingyuan's hair and patted his bruised face disdainfully, " If my master hadn't protected you, I wouldn't have let you survive tonight."
Ming Yuan struggled to get rid of the hands that disgusted him, and the blood spat out from his mouth was soaked on the carpet covered with petals. The strong smell of blood and flowers made him unbearable. Fall down fast.His physical strength was severely overdrawn, and his body was covered in cuts and bruises.
"Ruyan..."
"Ruyan? Hehe... This country has changed hands, let alone a... a crown princess who hasn't bloomed yet? My master will help you finish the unfinished business." The man in black Evil smile.
Ming Yuan immediately got up again when he heard it, "Come... come" the somewhat hoarse voice echoed in the empty room.
"Even if you shout Potian, no one will come to save you, don't struggle."
Hehe... On the wedding night, his wife was blatantly taken away?What about palace people?Where's the guard?Why so quiet?People... where have they all gone?
What is this sound?It seems like a fire is burning the mountains and forests, and it seems like thousands of people are crying. Why is it so bright outside?He was so dazzled that he couldn't even open his eyes...
With the help of the firelight outside the house, Mingyuan could see clearly the man in black who had been fighting with him all night. The man's hair was disheveled, he was extremely thin, and his face was so pale that it reminded him of death.His body was covered with a whole piece of black cloth, and his eyes were full of evil spirits... For some reason, Mingyuan suddenly thought of Ye Qianshang for this feeling.
At this moment, the man in black looked out of the window, the flames were soaring into the sky, but he smiled brightly, "Master finally got his wish... Haha, happy!" Then his eyes seemed a little moist.
Ming Yuan looked at the man in black smiling almost madly, as if ghostly shadows kept wandering towards him.
Hei still punched Ming Yuan's chest without any warning, "This punch is to recover the suffering my master has suffered in the past ten years!"
"Hmm..." Mingyuan suddenly felt the pain of the broken ribs piercing into the internal organs.
A puddle of blood was spat on the ground again, Mingyuan was severely injured, and every cell in his body seemed to be screaming.Consciousness gradually became blurred, and the scene of being taken away like smoke kept appearing in my mind.
what happens?My eyes are so heavy, I really want to sleep... I can't sleep, Ruyan is still waiting for me... Qianshang...
In a trance, like in a dream, he heard a child calling his brother...
What kind of smell... a faint fragrance.
Ming Yuan opened his eyes, the bright yellow brocade with dragon patterns on the bed made him feel a little more at ease, at least he was still in the palace.
Lifting the curtain of the bed, a few court ladies in plain clothes held their folded clothes, "My lord, you are awake."
Mingyuan looked at the unfamiliar furnishings around him. The spacious bedroom and the hall were only separated by a layer of white gauze and bead chains. There seemed to be someone drinking tea outside...
"Where is this? Who are you?" Ming Yuan slowly sat up with his body propped up.
"My lord, this is Wangyou Palace, a small island above the emerald lake. We are arranged by the master to take care of you." The maid opened the folded clothes and put them on for Mingyuan.
"Hmm..." When he raised his arm, the wound was torn, causing Ming Yuan to sweat coldly from the pain.
The sharp pain reminded him of what happened on the wedding night.
"Ruyan... Where is Ruyan?" Mingyuan suddenly grabbed the arm of a court lady, feeling a little out of control.
"My lord... My lord, this servant doesn't know what Ruyan is... ah...Young master, you are hurting this servant."
Mingyuan slowly let go of the maid and calmed down, "I am the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty, and Ruyan is my concubine, how could you not know?"
The two maids looked at each other, one of them was obviously taken aback, and stammered, "My lord... I really don't know that you are the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty... and I don't know where the concubine is. And... and this Northern Han Dynasty is no longer the Northern Han Dynasty. Han, the emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty passed away three days ago, don’t you know, our Seventeenth Lord is in charge now, that is, the seventeenth prince of the former emperor, Ming Han.”
"What? Change of owner? Ming... Han?" Ming Yuan sat down on the bed all of a sudden, his ears buzzing, "Are you kidding me... the seventeenth prince??" Ming Yuan suddenly remembered something, "He is only ten years old... how is it possible ?”
The maid helped Ming Yuan up, "Ten years old? Who said ten years old, the current emperor is 19 years old. It was read out at the enthronement ceremony."
"Don't tell me, the current emperor looks really extraordinary." Another court lady interjected.
"That's right, our Seventeenth Lord is simply a fairy descending from the earth."
Ming Yuan held his head, he couldn't figure it out, and he even wondered if he had traveled to the previous life or the next life of the Northern Han Dynasty.But these court ladies know that he is the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty... It is obvious that he did not continue to travel.
"Why am I here? Who sent me here? I have to go to Changle Palace... Ruyan is still there." Ming Yuan said and was about to walk out of the house.
"Yo...His Royal Highness, where are you going? How did you sleep?"
Ming Yuan turned around and saw Eunuch Zhao, the chief eunuch who had been with his father all day, coming here.
"Eunuch Zhao?"
Eunuch Zhao sneered, "His Royal Highness really has a good memory and never forgets the old slave. The old slave is really moved." Then he reached out and touched Ming Yuan's pale face, "Look, this pretty face is haggard What has become, the old servant feels distressed when he sees it."
"Presumptuous!" Ming Yuan knocked off the shriveled palm on his face, and took a step back.
"Haha..." Eunuch Zhao laughed wildly at first, and then immediately said with a dark face, "Huh...don't be arrogant, this country has changed masters, and your former prince is quite tempered." Then the eunuch took out The imperial decree inlaid with gold, "Following the heaven, the emperor ordered to abolish the former prince Mingyuan, and move it to Wangyou Palace and give it to Wende Palace from now on. Hereby..." Eunuch Zhao put away the imperial decree and handed it to Mingyuan , "Prince... accept the order."
Ming Yuan stood there staring at the imperial decree, "My father...has he really gone? My mother...and Ruyan, they..."
Eunuch Zhao: "Oh... your father was very quiet when he left, and he didn't suffer much. As for your mother, you don't have to worry anymore... The current emperor left early when he was young. When he ascended the throne, he already made your mother the queen Empress Dowager."
Ming Yuan let go of his hanging heart, "That's good...it's good that the queen mother is fine. Then how is my princess, Su Ruyan, the daughter of Prime Minister Su?"
Eunuch Zhao suddenly looked at Mingyuan with a full smile, and said after a while, "The holy majesty has issued an imperial decree to make Su Ruyan the concubine of the Northern Han Dynasty...Ming." Then he patted Mingyuan on the shoulder, "Don't stick to the past, if Forcing will only increase worries."
With a bang, the imperial decree in Mingyuan's hand fell to the ground.
"Ming... Concubine Ming?" Mingyuan suddenly grabbed Eunuch Zhao's collar, "You are talking nonsense! Ruyan is my concubine! How could it be Concubine Ming... How could it be possible!" Mingyuan suddenly laughed, " What is the Holy One? What is the seventeenth prince? They are all lies! My seventeenth brother is only ten years old, so how can he be registered as a concubine? So what..."
Eunuch Zhao ruthlessly pushed Ming Yuan aside, then rubbed his clothes, "Huh... believe it or not, let's go!"
Click, the door was closed, and the sound of heavy chains came into Mingyuan's ears.
"You guys take turns, if anything goes wrong, watch out for your lives!"
"Yes!"
Mingyuan fell to his knees on the ground, not knowing whether it was because of the intense pain in his body or because his emotions were hard to restrain after so many things happened, and the ground began to become wet.
"Ruyan... father and queen... mother and queen."
late at night.
Ming Yuan was still kneeling there, with his untied long hair hanging behind his back, and his eyes were a little dull.
Clang, squeak...
The door was opened, and someone came here.
Ming Yuan slowly raised his head, and sneered after seeing the appearance of the person, "Are you here to kill me? Just kill me if you want to. I've already died once, and it doesn't matter if I die again."
"Kill you? Hmph... If I wanted to kill you, you wouldn't come out of the moat alive. If I wanted to kill you, you wouldn't kneel today and let me admire your embarrassment."
The veins on Mingyuan's forehead twitched, and he stood up slowly, "Is there really a traitor who intends to murder me?" Suddenly he caught a glimpse of the Green Stream Sword in the person's hand, and his eyes suddenly revealed a trace of hatred, " Who is the master in your mouth?"
The man in black played with the sword in his hand, "You will know sooner or later, but not now. Although the master won't let me kill you, but you remember for me the head of you, the deposed prince, and I will come to take the head at any time."
Ming Yuan: "If you don't kill me, then why are you here...?"
The man in black took out a piece from his arms and handed it to Ming Yuan, "Return it to its original owner."
Ming Yuan took it, it was a piece of blood jade with a sense of age, but the shape was worn out so that it could not be seen clearly.A flash passed through his mind, as if he remembered someone wearing it, but couldn't.
"This is……"
"If you want to see your mother or other things, you only need to hang it at the window every day, and someone will take you there." After speaking, the man in black disappeared like a gust of wind.
Hehe, always like to play this kind of game... interesting?Interesting... who the hell are you?
Ming Yuan held the piece of blood jade, and slammed it against the wall fiercely, the blood stained the blood jade along the gap between his fingers...
The next day, the door was opened, and several court ladies and eunuchs walked in.
"My lord, let this maidservant wash you up. The flowers in the yard are in full bloom. I'll take you to have a look after you finish your breakfast. My master has ordered you to take good care of you."
Ming Yuan leaned against the corner of the wall, hadn't slept all night, his eyes were bloodshot, "Go out...I'm not hungry."
"Eat even if you are not hungry, how can you gain strength if you don't eat, how can you practice martial arts if you don't have strength, how can you protect your loved one without martial arts, how can you repay the hatred of the family and the country?" A familiar nagging voice came into Ming Yuan's ears .
Ming Yuan looked up and saw Situ Qing still smiling on his usual face, walking over with a jug in his hand...but he was wearing an official uniform.
"Situ Qing?" Ming Yuan immediately got up and walked over quickly, "How are you doing? Did they make things difficult for you?"
Situ Qing's eyes were moist, "Prince, don't worry, Situ is fine." After speaking, he touched the scabbed scar on Mingyuan's face, "It's just that the prince...is suffering, Situ is late!"
Ming Yuan stepped back to avoid Situ Qing's concern, "I'm not in the way, how did you get in? What happened? How did the Seventeenth Brother become emperor? Who is Ming Han? My father ...how did he die?"
Situ Qing put the jug on the table, turned away from the left and right, "Prince... you and I never thought of today's ending, alas... I also heard what the old man in the palace said... It all started 15 years ago, when Your father is just a prince, and your mother and queen are the main family. Your father and the maid of the palace secretly married each other. They were in love for life and became pregnant. Your mother didn't know about it until after the child was born. After all, this child is Your father's flesh and blood, your mother will definitely not kill him because of your father's face. But that girl... Later, for some reason, that girl was executed by your mother, and no one has seen that child again..."
Ming Yuan was shocked, "Didn't my father protect that woman?"
Situ Qing filled the wine glass and handed it to Ming Yuan, "Isn't it easy to convict a person, besides, what a smart person your mother is?"
Ming Yuan gulped it down, "That child is..."
"Yes...he is the current emperor...Minghan! The real seventeenth prince."'
Ming Yuan looked suspicious: "The palace has never heard anything about him, how did he manage to change hands of the Northern Han Dynasty?"
Situ Qing stood up, walked to the window and said, "Look at the acacia and peanuts here are very prosperous."
Ming Yuan heard the sound and followed, the Albizia juliensis outside the window covered the sky and the sun, the thick branches and leaves covered the entire courtyard, and the ground was also covered with a thick layer.
No wonder, I have been smelling a fragrance...
"Albizia julibrissin was originally a forbidden flower in the palace. The specific reason for the forbidden flower may have something to do with the current emperor! Who can hide from people's sight and cut off the news... and secretly form a party for personal gain, and even annexed the entire Northern Han Dynasty ! And because the emerald lake is far away from the center of the imperial palace, the terrain is extremely low, and it is surrounded by smog all the year round. It is not safe for the emperor to travel, so it was abandoned later, but it is still connected to some important secret passages of the Northern Han imperial palace."
Ming Yuan frowned tightly, and twisted a silk julienne flower on the window sill, "How could those subjects who are loyal to my father be willing to submit? And those generals who hold military power!"
"Hehe...surrender? They don't have this chance. All officials above the third rank will take off their crowns and wear feathers. They will either kill the nine clans or send them to the frontier. They will either die or be disabled. It's terrible." Situ Qing sighed, "And those who hold military power All of your generals were poisoned the night before your wedding, so it can be said that those who follow others prosper, and those who oppose others perish."
Ming Yuan slowly crushed the flower in his palm, with a painful expression on his face, "What should I do..."
Situ Qing turned to Ming Yuan, "Preserving the prince's life is the most important thing now. If you are safe, the Northern Han Dynasty still has a chance! And the only one who survived above the third-rank officials is Prime Minister Su..."
Ming Yuan suddenly stared at Situ Qing and asked, "Then how did you escape his clutches? Isn't it you who walked closest to the prince?"
Situ Qing didn't evade either, "A good bird chooses a tree to live in, but my heart belongs to the prince forever, otherwise I wouldn't be here today to analyze the court situation with the prince."
Now even Situ Qing was bought by that person?Or is it his plan to delay the attack?Now... Who is the trustworthy person?
"Let's go, and don't come back again." Mingyuan sat back on his seat and stared at the wine glass, "Get closer to me for a moment, and you will be three points in danger."
Situ Qing looked at Ming Yuan, who was drinking alone, and was suddenly shocked, "Prince, are you able to speak?"
Ming Yuan smiled and looked around, "So what, it's not like being a prisoner of others!"
Situ Qing wanted to say something else, but seeing Ming Yuan like this, she had no choice but to leave silently.When he walked to the door, he met a man in black, holding the Prince's Green Stream Sword in his hand.
"Stop... That sword belongs to His Highness the Crown Prince." Situ Qing grabbed the man in black's arm, "Hurry back!"
The man in black immediately locked Situ Qing on the door with his backhand. The man in black looked at the man in front of him who looked like a green onion, and wanted to kill him with a sword, but now the sword stopped on the man's neck Do not do it.
"..." Situ Qing watched the evil look in the black man's eyes, and felt cold sweat all over his body. This was the first time he saw this person.
At this time, Ming Yuan in the room said to the man in black, "Don't hurt him..." Then he turned around and continued drinking, "You go back first."
Only then did the man in black let go of his hand, "This is the tribute incense from the Western Regions given to you by the Queen Mother. Slight it every day before nightfall to soothe your nerves and fall asleep. Don't forget." The man in black put down his things and left, casting a sideways glance Standing by the door, Situ Qing kept staring at him.
"Mother..." Ming Yuan tremblingly touched the plate of things.
***
At night, Mingyuan took a stick of incense, lit it with a candle, and put it in the incense burner.The scent is a bit different from the usual one, and there is also a scent of silk juniper flowers...
He fell asleep after smelling the fragrance.A few hours later, Mingyuan woke up from his sleep, feeling a little hot, so he took off his coat, took the blood jade and went out. This was the first time he stepped out of this hall.
It is early summer, and there is a strong smell of Albizia julibrissin in the air.
This Wangyou Palace is huge, but there are few people, giving people a decadent and decadent feeling.Out of the courtyard of Wende Hall, there are two passages, one is the main road and the other is a deep path.
Mingyuan walked along the path, and when he was tired from walking, he sat on the stone platform to rest, and caught a glimpse of an ancient temple next to him.
Ming Yuan raised his head, "Wangyou Palace? Hmph... how can a person like me forget worries?"
The main hall door was half-closed, and it was pitch black everywhere.
Could it be the queen mother?He is locked here, maybe the queen mother is really inside.
Ming Yuan quickened his pace, the light in the hall was very dark, and the courtyard was also blocked by the silk tree, he looked around, only one room had light.
Mingyuan walked slowly towards that room, gently pushed open the door, there were countless sandman floating in the empty room, and a lamp was burning flickeringly through the sandman...
In a trance, Mingyuan seemed to hear a heavy breathing, and seemed to hear another woman's sobbing.
mother?
Mingyuan walked very slowly until he kicked something... The sandman kept hitting him on the face, peeling off layers of sandman, and the candle flame jumped... The candle light shone on the bed, Mingyuan didn't know it was a candle Is the fire jumping or the bed itself shaking...
"Hmm..." A woman's voice reached Ming Yuan's ears.
"Ruyan..."
Mingyuan lifted the veil violently with joy, but was surprised to find a pair of ketone bodies entangled together, and a scene that almost made him despair.
With a bang, the thing in Ming Yuan's hand fell to the ground, waking up the woman. The woman opened her eyes and met those sad eyes, "Prince..."
When Mingyuan heard Ruyan calling him, he immediately turned around and ran out stumbling, tearing the gauze along the way...
At this time, a figure of a man stepped down from the bed, bent down to pick up the blood jade on the ground, and the candlelight reflected that cold, charming and even evil face.
The author has something to say:
☆, Beacon in Troubled Times
At this time, a figure of a man stepped down from the bed, bent down to pick up the blood jade on the ground, and the candlelight reflected that cold, charming and even evil face.
The man touched the piece of jade, looked at Ming Yuan's receding back from the window, his mouth curled up slightly, "Yuan...we will meet soon."
"Please... Please let me go. I was born to belong to the prince, and I will die to be the prince's ghost." The woman rolled out of the bed wrapped in the quilt, and shouted heart-piercingly by pulling the hem of the man's clothes.
The man helped the woman up from the ground and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "But you are mine tonight, and you can only be mine from now on." The man stretched out his hand to stroke the woman's hair, "You are already the North Ming Concubine of the Han Dynasty, not the Crown Princess."
The woman was trembling all over, her hair was stuck to her face with tears, "Why...why did you do this to me?"
The man turned around and fastened his clothes, walked into the shadows, and said to a wrinkled painting on the wall, "Just because he loves the person in this painting, and the person in this painting is you." The man slowly approached Woman, "Why are you crying? Have I been rude to you? As long as you stay quietly by my side, your clansmen will save their lives because of you, and even rise to the top because of you. Not only will your father not have to die, but he can continue to serve in the court Be an official."
The woman seemed to understand something, her emotions gradually calmed down, and she slowly lay back on the bed, "Your majesty...the concubine understands."
The man did not continue to return to the bed, but disappeared into the night with the painting in his hand, "Go to rest early."
Mingyuan came out of the ancient temple and ran along the road until the end, until the sound of gurgling water sounded in his ears.
There is a thick fog in front of my eyes, and a bottomless lake under my feet. The night is thick and there is no light.Ming Yuan frowned, and suddenly fell to his knees in the soil, holding his head tightly with both hands, and turned his back to the sky.That unbearable picture, that heavy breathing, that thing that should belong to him...but now he was snatched away naked by others, but he ran here timidly.His heart aches for his own cowardice, for the loss of a loved one, and for his own powerlessness.
He was an ordinary person in the future world, but for some reason he was transmigrated into this history book
