In the tenth year of Xingwen, the emperor died.
It never rains but it pours. The virtuous prince is weak and ill. When he suddenly heard the bad news, he felt sad for a moment. He followed the former emperor a few days later. Emperor Xingwen had few heirs, only the virtuous prince, so there would be no heir to the throne.
The girder was leaderless, but the house leaked, and it rained all night long. The Turks took this opportunity to raise their troops on a large scale.
Seeing that there was going to be chaos in the world, the court could not be without a monarch for a day. The ministers in the court unanimously recommended King Jing, the younger brother of the former emperor, as the son of heaven, to take King Jing as the throne and change the year title to Xuanwu.
In the first year of Xuanwu, the new emperor ascended the throne. On the one hand, the new emperor immediately sent troops to the border, on the other hand, he appointed talents and talked widely, so that the situation in the girder was stable.
********************************************
In the early autumn night, there was already a little chill.
The Zhengsi Hall tonight is really cold, but not because of the chill in early autumn, but because of the bright yellow figure above the main hall.
Next, a group of concubines, led by Han Guifei, bowed their heads.
For a moment, the hall was silent, and even the breath seemed to melt into the wind.
A man in dark red chambermaid quickly walked to the hall and bowed his head, "Your Majesty, Princess Chaoge has found it and sent it back to the Palace of Tranquility..."
Before the words fell, the bright yellow figure in front of him flashed past.
The low air pressure made the normally steady and shrewd eunuch feel a cold sweat at this time.
One eye walked around the hall quietly.
I don't know who ate the bear heart and leopard gall and attacked the emperor's heart
Throwing out the confused thoughts in his mind, Wei Qiu quickly followed the steps of Minghuang's figure in front.
"Drive the Palace of Tranquility."
......
Xiao Qingwu felt that he could not respond.
She stupidly let the doctor take her pulse and listened to the old doctor with white beard vomit a lot of words that she could not understand.
Until the layers of pink and blue tulle curtains were put down, she raised her hand.
This is a pair of thin, white and tender hands, not her long, thin hands that hold the sword all the year round.
Her face was a little sore. She raised her hand to touch it, only felt a piece of soft gauze, and there was a sharp pain on her face.
It seems that I hurt my face.
The room was very quiet, and the little girl outside could be heard crying deliberately.
There was a faint noise of restlessness outside the door.
"The emperor, the princess......" was the voice of the crying girl, but it was soon interrupted.
After a while, the door was opened quietly.
Xiao Qingwu closed his eyes.
She is not ready yet. She has not yet found out the situation. Therefore, for the time being, we should avoid this matter if we can.
The gauze curtain was gently lifted and hung down.
After a while, the door closed gently again.
A faint command came from the door, "... Take good care of the princess."
A man in bright yellow robes stopped on the hall, and a man in navy official robes stopped in front of him.
"How is the princess?"
"I returned to your majesty, but I was shocked and fainted. It's no big deal," the old doctor with gray hair hurriedly replied. After saying that, he hesitated again, and hesitated. "But the scratch on his face is serious. I'm afraid it will be difficult to recover."
Hearing the words, Emperor Xuanwu frowned and looked at the old doctor, his voice was cold and piercing, "No matter what method, the princess must recover as before, if not..."
The old doctor knelt down trembling, "I will try my best to let the princess recover as soon as possible!"
Emperor Xuanwu nodded and waved, and the old doctor left the hall as if granted amnesty.
The old doctor looked up at the sky and wiped the sweat off his head with his sleeve.
Alas It's more and more difficult to be on duty in the palace now, let alone
The old doctor looked back at the temple that had gone away with fear.
It's better to return home as soon as possible.
Above the hall, Emperor Xuanwu cast his eyes far to the east, with a trace of evil in his eyes.
"Go back to the palace."
After half a column of incense, when the outside was completely calm, Xiao Qingwu opened his eyes.
It was the complexity that she had not yet covered up.
That voice
She propped up the bed with her hands and pulled up the gauze curtain.
Moonlight shone through the slightly opened window.
There is a white jade tea set on the yellow pear wood table, and there are several crescent moon stools beside it. A jade Ruyi, a red coral, a peony secret color porcelain plate and some gold and silver wares were placed on the golden nanmu shelf on the site.
On the wall is the masterpiece of Wu Bai, the great painter of the time. On the small table beside the bed is a double chessboard. At the window is a gold nanmu dresser. A bronze mirror stands in the middle. The table is full of makeup boxes. On one side of the dresser is a lyre. Just opposite the door, there is a large inserted screen of butterfly and peony embroidered by the former empress.
A house of luxury and luxury.
Her hands trembled slightly.
If she didn't hear or think wrong
Stepping on the wooden floor barefoot, a little chill seeps into the bones.
She went to the bronze mirror by the window and sat down.
The person in the mirror looks as if he is in the prime of his life, and his facial features are too delicate to describe, especially his eyes, which are as bright as glass soaked in clear water. A piece of white jade was hanging on the neck, but the skin on the neck was a bit more smooth and white than the jade. If you ignore the gauze on your right face, you are indeed a rare beauty in the world.
At that moment, she only felt the chill to the bone.
Sure enough
A gust of wind blew the slightly open window further open, and a red petal fell on her snow-white profane dress.
She cast her eyes out of the window.
A tree of begonia is like blood.
But when she died, it was the last month of winter.
How long did it take and what happened?
The Chaoge princess she knew became Chaoge Princess.
Then, as the father of Princess Chaoge, King Jing, who came here just now, as she knows, is the emperor.
What was the result of the original Emperor Xingwen?
How is their Xiao family? How are her relatives?
No one can answer her now.
Unconsciously, her fingers bent into fists, and she did not release her hands until she felt the tingling sensation of her nails falling into the palm.
Now she, a person who should have died for a long time, occupies the body of the present Princess Chaoge.
It's incredible.
"Tut, it's unbelievable." A white robed man listened to the news that his next subordinate had just received from the palace, casually turned the finger on his hand, and his voice was low. "Are you sure the medicine was poured into her?"
"Yuan Qi is responsible for this," Yuan said after a pause. "Yuan Qi left only after she was dead. She always does things without fail."
"Now there is a mistake," the white robed man smiled, but it made people feel chilly. "Is the identity not revealed?"
"No." Yuan Yi replied.
"Come back from the dead..." The white robed man's mouth was hooked up, and his eyelashes were slightly lowered, covering the unknown meaning of the flash in his eyes.
They all know that Yuan Qi will not pass on a false message in order to shirk responsibility.
That means one thing.
Although it's unbelievable.
"... Let Yuan Qi keep watching, and don't act rashly," he smiled, "to avoid scaring the snake."
Yuan Yi bowed his head and said, "Yes."
……
When Xiao Qingwu opened his eyes again, it was already light.
She lifted the quilt and sat up.
Through the screen, you can see a little girl sitting on the foot pedal beside the bed, with her head propped up, sleeping soundly.
It was probably last night after she slept that she came in to watch the night.
She lifted the veil.
Hearing the slight sound of cloth friction, the little girl got up.
That eye is very swollen.
"Your highness is awake." The little girl's voice is a little hoarse. "Do you want to wash your highness?"
Xiao Qingwu sat silently on the bed with his head down.
As far as she knew, Chaoge Princess was very quiet and did not make trouble, although she was insane.
The little girl seemed to be used to it. She clapped her hands, and a mama led a line of maidservants to come in with washing utensils.
The maidservants carefully cleaned and combed her hair, and were careful not to touch her wounds.
With the help of several maidservants, they finally finished breakfast. Seeing that the sky was just right outside, some maidservants of Mammy's Palace led her out to set her free.
She sat on the mat in the small pavilion in the Begonia forest behind the palace.
The crabapple behind the Palace of Tranquility seems to have made great efforts to select varieties and colors when planting. Therefore, in the season of flowering crabapple, the color of the crabapple tree grows from white to red from south to north, which is wonderful.
The surrounding area is full of blooming crabapples. When the wind blows, the flowers fall in profusion, which is not as beautiful as in the world.
Xiao Qingwu was a bit absent-minded about such a beautiful scene.
Several maidservants around seemed to bow their heads and wait for orders, but they actually looked at her for half an hour.
She sighed in her heart.
The owner of the body is an idiot.
Although she was not familiar with the Princess Chaoge, she also heard about her.
No one knows who her biological mother is. There are many people's guesses about her life experience. Some people said that she was born in King Jing's outer room, while others said that she was born between King Jing and his family's dancers. There are many different opinions and it is difficult to make a conclusion.
It is difficult to verify who Chaoge's birth mother is. However, it is certain that Chaoge is very popular with King Jing.
King Jing claimed that the imperial songs were produced by Princess Jing.
But at that time, Princess Jing died before Chaoge was born, because she was hard to give birth to her son and her vitality was exhausted. King Jing did this just to give Chaoge a place as his legitimate daughter.
Chaoge is not born an idiot. She was normal two years ago.
Unfortunately, I was infected with the epidemic two years ago, and the fever did not subside. It was not easy to get rid of the fever and get back a life. When I woke up, I found that Chaoge became delirious.
She was also greatly regretful at that time.
What a beautiful woman! How could she be so unlucky?
It's said that King Jing, who always dotes on his daughter, killed several imperial physicians.
Now King Jing
She squinted.
If she is not mistaken, this is the Palace of Tranquility.
The Palace of Tranquility is the residence of the empress and the nearest palace to the Zhengsi Hall where the emperor lives.
Nowadays, the emperor really dotes on Chaoge.
At this time, an inner attendant came along the path between the crabapple trees.
He came over and said with a smile, "The slave paid his respects to the princess
Xiao Qingwu glanced at him without any trace.
It seems that this chamberlain was with Emperor Xingwen before.
She lowered her head and looked at her.
He didn't get a response, and he didn't care much. He smiled and said to the girl on the side, "Xiang Ling, the emperor ordered his highness princess to go to Zhengsi Hall."
It turned out that this little girl was called Xiang Ling.
"Yes."
Xiang Lingfu saluted and went forward to take Xiao Qingwu's hand and put her hand on the back of her hand.
She pulled her carefully, just like a fragile porcelain doll.
After walking out of the path among the crabapple trees and passing through several corridors, the palace gate was presented.
At the gate of the palace, Xiao Qingwu seemed to turn his head unintentionally.
The three characters of the Palace of Tranquility stand out in the sunshine.
She turned and stepped forward.
......
