[Shaoyin] like a short-lived epiphyllum

On the way from his cousin's palace to his Imamori, Zhang Zi kept thinking about what that person said at that time.Should it be said that she is Zhangzi's cousin? She quickly saw through the fact that she was not Zhangzi, no matter how much she imitated Zhangzi's usual habits and habits.

The first sentence she saw her, she answered very normally, according to Zhang Zi's speaking habit.But the woman chuckled, smiling so beautifully, but what she said surprised Zhang Zi.

"You don't have to pretend like that in front of me. When you grow up, you look exactly like Lingzi-sama."

"...What are you talking about, who is Lingzi-sama?"

"Hehe, of course it's your mother."

Zhang Zi turned her head away from looking into Sting Zi's eyes, she clutched her sleeves tightly and kept looking around.

"Just like when you were a kid, once the lie is exposed, that's what you do."

as a child?

Had she ever met Master Sting Zi when she was a child?

Zhang Zi, who had no memory of this, frowned, mustered up the courage to look at Stator again.Sting Zi smiled and approached a little bit, but Zhang Zi tried not to do anything about her big belly.She stroked Zhang Zi's head and patted it carefully.

"Evidently she has just come of age, but she replaced Zhangzi and entered the palace as a concubine."

"why?"

"what?"

Sting Zi blinked and looked at Zhang Zi, Zhang Zi was holding his sleeve to cover his face, because if she didn't do this, she wouldn't be able to help crying in front of this woman.The woman patted her hand very warmly and familiarly, but in the depths of my memory, it was the one who smiled like a blooming epiphyllum at night.

"It seems that there is someone I like, so that's why I'm so sad."

Zhang Zi was silent and did not speak, Ting Zi took her as her acquiescence, and carefully hugged her and caressed her still young back.

"As long as you firmly believe, that person will live in your heart forever."

"...How I wish I was just born in an ordinary family."

Hearing that Zhang Zi finally said what was in his heart, Ding Zi smiled gratifiedly. She pulled some distance away and wiped away the tears from the corners of Zhang Zi's eyes.

"Yes, before I married the Emperor, I also wished that I was just a child from an ordinary family. I was a monk at that time, but the Emperor did not dislike me at that time and hugged me in his arms."

"You are very happy."

"Yeah, I'm the happiest right now. I have Shuko and this unborn child with the Emperor."

"..."

Looking at Ting Zi who was caressing his belly, Zhang Zi lowered his eyes, if, if she is not the child of the father, or the child of the mother.She probably didn't have the fate to meet him, she met the person he would agree to no matter how willful she asked.

Eh?

Why do you feel that even if you make a willful request, he will agree.

Why do you think so, it's really weird...

Whether it's that time or that night.

Everything is not so real anymore.

"Master Lingzi once saved my life, so tell me something in this harem."

Before she left, Queen Tingzi saw her off with a smile.

The bullock cart shook a long distance, and Zhang Zi asked Qin Zi beside him in a strange way.

"What happened?"

"Ah...Your Highness, I heard from the people in front that youkai appeared."

"monster?"

Zhang Zi, who was about to pull up the bamboo curtain, was stopped by Qin Zi's hand, and she shook her head to express that Zhang Zi's current behavior was very inappropriate.Zhang Zi had no choice but to give up holding the hand of the bamboo curtain, looking at the people shaking outside, Zhang Zi looked towards the sky through the bamboo curtain.

In a trance, I saw a woman standing on the tile, shaking the fan in her hand and blowing towards the road in front of her.When Zhang Zi shook his head and looked in that direction again, there was no one there.After seeing that there was nothing around, the bullock cart started driving again, Qinzi asked Zhangzi with some doubts.

"Your Highness, what happened?"

"Hmm...it's nothing, maybe it's an illusion. Today's sky is really strange, there is a lot of fog floating on it."

"Fog? Not much."

When Zhang Zi heard Qin Zi say this, he blinked and covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, a little puzzled.But soon this doubt was interrupted by Qinzi's next words, she nodded and handed the envelope in her arms to Qinzi.

It has been agreed to write letters to family members every other week.Then the father of the family delivered the letter to Chunzi and Aunt Xue. Of course, the Taoist priest also promised her that he would deliver the letter to them on the same day without reading the contents of the letter.Then there was another letter... to Seimei-sama, telling her about the strange dream she had recently.

Of course there were more than one letter inside, but it was just for Zhangzi's reputation, so it couldn't be conveyed to Changhao so clearly.Only the disguised shell can be used to deliver the letter inside.

>>>

Chang Hao, who was aggrieved by today's incident, walked to his room in frustration after being told that Qing Ming had called him over and had a few simple words with Zhang Zi.

"Is there something wrong with Grandpa calling me at this time?"

"Sa~ Maybe it's because of today's matter?"

"Well……"

Chang Hao, who was a little frustrated at the mention of today's events, became even more frustrated. He nodded inadvertently in response to the monster's next words.But when he received the letter from Qingming, he immediately lifted his spirits when he smelled Xiang Changhao from above.

The delicate words on it are undoubtedly the person he misses day and night, the person who has always warmed him.Even if he went to the cold palace instead of Zhangzi, he still believed in him——Zhangzi.

Saying goodbye to Qingming in a hurry, Chang Hao hurriedly ran to his room.Seeing Changhao like this, Qingming smiled gratifiedly. It has been a long time since he saw such an energetic Changhao.

"Zhang Zi still has a letter for you, what did you write?"

"... She gradually began to remember."

The monsters understand what Qingming said.He jumped on the table and looked at the contents of the letter, his beautiful eyes like sunset glow were a little sad and helpless at this moment.

The letter mentioned Zhang Zi's recent dream and some strange things that happened in the palace.She began to remember...remembered all the past events, although very vague and confusing, but very warm and very familiar.

But that child, remember these words.Could it be that one person sadly accepts these facts, and then weeps silently alone, just like when he was a child, even though Changhao is not by his side this time.

After talking with Qingming, the monster who returned to the room looked at Changhao who seemed to be blooming beside him, the corners of his mouth twitched and moved away.And Chang Hao also noticed the monster, and the idiot expression when he turned his head made the monster couldn't bear to look directly.

"Monarch, Zhang Zi is living very well in the palace."

"Um."

"She said she went to the queen today, and the queen has another child to be born."

"Ah... Seimei went to see it not long ago."

Answering Changhao's content one by one, the monster looked at Changhao's eyes and sighed helplessly but also happily.After all, after a day of fatigue and grievances, I became very relaxed when I saw that letter, and my mood gradually became high.

During the night patrol at night, that swaggering appearance made the monster shake his head helplessly.Zhang Zi's letter is now invincible in a sense, after all, it is the most rare time since she entered the palace.

But don't tell the grandson in front of you what you read in the letter to Seimei.Otherwise, when the time comes... there will be unnecessary expectations, looking forward to her coming back.

>>>

"Hey……"

"Don't cry... I like to see you smiling... Even if I'm not here..."

The smiling girl in the memory lost her warmth in her arms, and those beautiful ice-blue cigarette butts also lost the warmth and agility of the past at that moment.No matter how she shook her, no matter how she called her, she would never stretch out those hands to stroke her head again, and said with a smile that it was all right.

"Please...come back, Hotaru..."

She staggered and stood up, looking at the grown-ups and young boys and girls who were gradually panicking, she smiled and recited the spell that that person had taught her, that forbidden spell.It's just that those eyes are full of silence, because these people killed her most important person.

It doesn't matter if she takes revenge on these people a little bit, right, God will definitely not blame her.After all, there was someone who made mistakes first...but this group of people in front of them.

"Bring back my winter firefly...! 』

The wind blew through the long hair of the girl standing in the middle of the dark mist, and the people around her couldn't breathe in pain, and there were gradually countless wounds on her body.But she still seemed to feel that it was not enough, and continued to chant the spell.

"It's okay... to live happily. 』

Countless fireflies floated around the girl, and the dots of fireflies were very beautiful, gradually gathering together and appearing in front of the girl.It was the figure of a girl who had lost the temperature in her arms not long ago, and she stretched out her arms in a gesture of hugging.

The confused eyes gradually became a little watery, and she hugged her tightly between the fireflies, unwilling to let go.But that was just an illusion. After the girl passed out, the fireflies dissipated, and she was caught by a woman.

"Even though we stopped her back then, we still couldn't save her broken heart."

"Haha, so that girl has changed the fate of the stars now."

"So... Gao Yu, I'm sorry for the other child. It's useless to say anything now."

The woman stretched out her clenched hand, and when she let go, a snowflake floated out, and then that snowflake disappeared into the vast starry sky.Gao Yu next to him took a sip of the sake in the bowl and chuckled softly.

No matter how much I apologized, it wouldn't reach the girl's ears, the girl who has entered the palace and lost all her spiritual power.If only the name in memory is missing, then the divine power will destroy the child.

——Your name is Dongying, I heard it from Gong Si, when you were born——On that snowy day, you were surrounded by beautiful fireflies.

The author has something to say: Look!I didn't abuse this time!

Although it's not particularly sweet... [to fingers]

But in the future, no matter what, I will go in the direction of sweetness!

So trust me!

What Ayako did will also be explained one by one.
