[Shaoyin] like a short-lived epiphyllum

Putting on clothes one by one, Zhang Zi resignedly asked the maids to change her clothes, tie her hair, and... do her makeup.Today is the day she will enter the palace and marry the Emperor instead of the cursed Miss Zhang Zi.

Not long after she fell asleep, she was woken up by Junko. Not knowing what happened, she looked at Junko with a sad and resentful face.After putting on the twelve singles, she came to the lobby and saw her father whom she hadn't seen for a long time and... Abe Seimei-sama whom she just met yesterday.

"Zhangzi... I want to tell you something, it's very important, you have to listen carefully."

She was sitting in front of her father and listening to her slowly describe her future. Her father said that her sister, Miss Zhang Zi, was cursed by a demon, a curse that would haunt her for a lifetime.She who is already filthy like this cannot give birth to dragon sons for the emperor, because that would be disrespectful to this sacred blood.She couldn't listen to what she said next, and just stared blankly at Master Qingming next to her father.

Qingming couldn't bear to look at the eyes that were no longer clear, he clenched his fists.He didn't intend to tell the grown-up about this matter, even if it had any impact on the emperor's future, but as long as this matter is over, he will, will make the curse on that girl disappear.

But why!Why would the Daoist know!

Changho... Grandpa may be cruel to do this, but... I'm sorry, I'm sorry...

Qingming hid all the pain deep in her heart. From then on, when she saw Changhao's expression of letting go as if nothing mattered, the thorn in the bottom of her heart sank like this, as if it would hurt especially if she moved it.

After all, the child married the emperor and went to the palace as Miss Zhang Zi.And his home is about to welcome a guest, Her Royal Highness the Princess from a distant relative.

Chang Hao, who was in a hard fight, saw the scene he least wanted to see, knowing that it was a phantom, and knowing that it was an illusion created by Qiong Qi to make him succumb.But Chang Hao hoped from the bottom of his heart that she could look at him well and laugh beside him, just for the smile he showed alone.

"As long as you can become my subordinate, it will be no problem to restore Akiko Fujiwara's memory."

Looking at the slightly shaken Chang Hao, Qiong Qi narrowed his eyes.Even if the child in front of him has the blessing of the dragon god, he is still a child after all, and his will is very fragile. As long as he seduces him with sweet words, he will soon be hooked.

"Mage, dedicate everything to me and become my subordinate!"

"--I reject!"

"why!"

Unexpected answer, Qiongqi barked wildly.

He obviously wanted that girl very much, and he also said that as long as he became his subordinate, he would restore her memory. Why is he still so firmly rejecting him even now!

"Don't you want to get Akiko Fujiwara?"

Chang Hao didn't answer, he turned around slowly, squinted his eyes a little dizzily and muttered.

"...There are no fireflies here. There is no meaning at all without fireflies! So Qiongqi! I will beat you here!"

For a moment just now, he was indeed shaken.The conditions proposed by Qiongqi Na and the wonderful future he created made him a little dizzy.As long as she becomes Qiongqi's subordinate, her memory will come back, and then they can be together like before.

However, the familiar sachet on his chest, the sachet with the same breath as Zhang Zi, called him back.

That night, Zhang Zi apologized repeatedly, apologizing for lying to him all this time.Even if he was forgotten, he still used those warm hands to give him tenderness and the singing voice he was familiar with.

The child who comforted him and rescued him from despair.It is impossible to bring her here. This world without fireflies is a world without any meaning, and it is not suitable for her.

Moreover, I swore that I would protect her all my life, the warm her at that moment.

Ignoring the real world in his mind, which may not have Zhang Zi, Chang Hao yelled.

"This spell is to cut off all evil and ominousness in the world, as urgently as a law—!"

>>>

I'm sorry... Changhao, after all, I still couldn't wait for you.

It's an agreement, I will wait for you at home when you come back.

After all, I was the one who missed the appointment, I'm sorry... I'm sorry...

Zhang Zi clenched the Gouyu that she had been carrying with her all the time, and she had to hold back the tears that wanted to burst out of her eyes.She couldn't treat the supreme, her future husband, the current Emperor, with a tearful expression.

She doesn't know who gave the jade in her hand, but it's definitely not Master Qingming, it must be someone very important... Because I heard from Junko that this jade is blessed by gods, and it is a very precious orb.

That must be a very important person to her. For some reason, Changhao's face flashed in her mind.

Junzi and Aunt Xue did not enter the palace with her, but the strangers to her.It was the first time to see such a grand occasion, even though they were all beaming, Zhang Zi couldn't be happy anyway.The female officer next to her reminded her that the emperor was coming soon, but she just nodded without showing any expression.

His eyes were hot, but he couldn't cry anymore.

Perhaps the maids guessed that the young Zhonggong was still reluctant to go home, and comforted her, even if she was in the palace, she could go back to visit her parents when necessary.Then she took a cloth soaked in water and applied it to her eyes, in order to welcome the coming emperor.

The young man who came here kindly took care of her funeral here, but it was only because of Her Majesty the Empress.After all, Empress Stingzi is the niece of Michizane Fujiwara, so she must have taken good care of her cousin.

Before the emperor left, she mentioned whether she could let her relatives and friends come to visit her.The female officer beside her frowned in disapproval, the emperor stopped the minister beside her nonchalantly, stroked her head and agreed with a smile.

Even after the emperor left, he never asked her name, but... even if she did, she could only say the name that did not belong to her.

She slept extremely uncomfortable that day, and everything was not familiar, but strange.Everything has changed, without Aunt Xue's friendly smile, and without Junko's complaints in her ears.Nothing... nothing... anything, by the way, I must have forgotten, forgot something!

I heard from the maid who changed her clothes in the morning that the famous Abe Seimei and his grandson will come here to set up a barrier.And Zhang Zi who heard this didn't know why, and there was a voice in his heart.

I want to see him, I want to see Chang Ho...

Order all the maids and ladies to stand down, she doesn't want anyone to disturb her conversation with relatives and friends, that's what she told them.

He heard footsteps coming from outside, followed by the sound of clothes rubbing against each other.Zhang Zi stood up slowly and turned around, holding the exquisite fan tightly in her hand. Looking at Chang Hao who was a little thinner than last time, she felt a little pain in her heart for some reason, and she frowned.

"Congratulations on becoming the emperor's concubine, Zhangzi..."

And Chang Hao, who said this sentence, wanted to slap himself very much now, but it was impossible to take it back after the words had been spoken.The air became more and more solemn, Zhang Zi looked at Chang Hao with some disappointment, she pursed her lips and said.

"...Well, thank you."

Hearing the sweet voice from behind the curtain, Chang Hao raised his head and smiled slightly.Even if the girl is not visible, even if she is already the emperor's concubine, Zhang Zi has become very adult now.Thinking of this, he smiled even deeper.

"It's over... everything..."

Chang Hao nodded with a smile.

"Well, I've wiped out Qiongqi. The things that caused you pain are gone."

"Um……"

Zhang Zi clenched his fists tightly, his heart was beating hard but at the same time it was extremely painful.

"...Changhao, you can't see me, right... because of this obstructive bamboo curtain."

Changhao probably couldn't see her face.

Hearing the girl's complaints, Changhao opened his eyes wide and smiled wryly.He remembered that when they met before, the girl had complained to him like this.

She said that it would be fine without the bamboo curtains, why can't I meet outsiders in an upright manner, who invented such a troublesome thing.

It was early summer, and Zhang Zi, who was afraid of the heat, was sitting in the corridor, shaking his white legs and complaining.

"This is not acceptable. From now on, the only person who can look at you directly like this is His Majesty the Emperor."

Moreover, the one who can call you by your name is also--by the way...

"My way of speaking is really rude...For the daughter of destiny who is under one person, please forgive me with your compassionate heart."

For Chang Hao who suddenly changed his tone of voice, Zhang Zi felt that his eyes were hot again, his heart ached more and more, and his breathing gradually became difficult.

——Don't, don't be so strange to her...

Without the strength to hold the fan tightly, let the fan fall to the ground.Zhang Zi walked slowly to the bamboo curtain, and stretched out his hand to touch the bamboo curtain.

"Nakamiya..."

"don't want……"

The voice from the bamboo curtain was so hoarse that Changhao's heart suddenly tugged.

"Don't say anything about the daughter of destiny under one person, Zhonggong or something. Changhao... please."

Chang Hao looked up at the sky, there was something stuck in his chest, and he couldn't breathe.Obviously it was hard, finally came to see her with the courtesy of a monarch and minister, and finally thought that he could forget her.

The distance between them is separated by the bamboo curtain.A very long distance, clearly within reach.

Chang Hao stretched out his hand quietly, passed through the bamboo curtain and gently held Zhang Zi's hand together.Through the dense bamboo curtain, feel the temperature from the other party.

"I'm sorry... I promised to wait for you at home, but I missed the appointment..."

"..."

Chang Hao didn't speak. Hearing the girl's choked up words, she must be crying now as she was then.

"……firefly."

Hearing half of what the girl said, Changhao nodded.

This is their agreement.Promised, things to see next summer.At that time, the girl was sitting in front of him, without the bamboo curtain to block her.She smiled like a flower and made an agreement with him.

Just holding each other's hands through the bamboo curtain like this, Changho closed his eyes.

"...I will definitely take you to see it, even if I use spells, I will bring you the fireflies from your ship."

Even if we won't meet again later, let her see the beautiful figure that Xia Tian showed, for which he has to learn the only spell.

"...I heard that there are many youkai in the palace, isn't it?"

In this resplendent and resplendent palace, the monsters here are actually more sinister than outside.Because it is a disgusting thing gathered by all kinds of unbearable and ugliness of human beings, and it is the harem that best embodies it.

The strife between the pink and dark beauties in the harem is a very terrifying existence even in modern times. Those resentments that are hundreds of times stronger than the curse will hurt her.

Thinking of this, Chang Hao frowned and clenched his fists.

"...But, I have nothing to do with it."

She said with a smile.

"Because... Changho, you will protect me, won't you?"

The boy who promised to protect her, the successor of the Great Onmyoji Abe Seimei.

When Chang Hao heard such words, tears gradually welled up in his eyes, he opened his mouth but swallowed those words again.He finally said with a smile.

"……Um."

Lowering his head, Chang Hao said decisively.

"I'm here... to protect you."

Will definitely protect you.The people you cherish and the future you look forward to are also good.

"I will—always... protect you."

I will do my best to keep you safe forever.

After Zhang Zi heard these words, he showed a very happy smile.Even if she didn't know why she was so happy, but the unstoppable tears that shed, the Changhao in front of her - she couldn't see it.

"……I trust you."

Chang Hao was stunned for a moment when he heard the words from the bamboo curtain.Even if the girl didn't say this to him with a smile, she still believed in him, and that was enough.

The warmth of the hands clasped through the bamboo curtain is so warm, it will penetrate into the bottom of my heart many times.

She is so warm and will never be forgotten.

The author has something to say: The Qiongqi Chapter is officially over...

It seems impossible to say that it is not cruel...

But I will try to go in the sweet direction!

Even if you forget all the chapters, wouldn't it be enough to fall in love with him again?

This is what the girl missed.

I don't know if the next Fengyin chapter is about sweetness or abuse

I don't know how many times it was declared, I am definitely not a stepmother!I want to be a mother!
