Chapter two hundred and fourteen
The chrysanthemum cup is deep, the plum blossoms are blowing far away, and the shadows are in the same turbid.
Gathering and dispersing in a hurry, lonely geese beside the clouds and duckweed on the water.
Why don’t people hurt their emotions? How many times will they feel, and their souls will fly and dreams will be shocked.
After night, I miss you, the dust goes with the horse, and the moon goes by the boat.
Putting the wolf's hair down, Concubine Du gently blew the paper. The ink marks were not dry, but a piece of style had already appeared on the paper.
"I have not written many poems in my life, but I like this last poem the most."
"Sister, is this poem considered a clear idea?"
Concubine Du was reluctant to leave her eyes away from the rice paper and turned to Yingcairen. The Qingzhi Palace was surrounded by water and no one could enter and exit at will, but this did not cause Yingcairen. She simply climbed over and jumped into the Qingzhi Palace from the backyard. The maids were all surprised, but Concubine Du was calm and took Yingcairen into the bedroom and ordered the palace people to guard it outside.
"I was only ten years old when I left Mobei. The days of riding horses and laughing were gone forever. Entering the palace was just to complete the task, but everything that happened afterwards was not within my expectations. After giving birth to Yun Qi, I knew that I would never be able to leave this great imperial city again. Thirty years have been guarding this world for a full thirty years. Even when you entered the palace, I didn't dare to see you. The uneasiness in my heart has never been completely released. I am already very tired."
"Sister, I just heard about you. It was not until I actually entered the palace that I realized that the rumored you were so different from the real you. I thought that the days in the imperial city had completely wiped out your memories of your hometown, and it turned out that you had been hidden in your heart."
"You entered the palace with the mission, and now it's been successfully completed. It's time to leave. We grassland women should not be bound in the deep palace. You are still young, and the best years should bloom on the Yinshan Mountains and in the sea of bones. Listen to my sister's words, leave earlier."
"Sister, have you really thought about it?"
"If you help King Xiang do things, you should have a good understanding of his character. For power, you can hide yourself for several years; for power, you will kill your father and brother. Yun Qi is the only person who can hinder him at present. If he knows my identity, then Yun Qi will never have a day to turn over. Besides, the musk-scale fragrance you brought has been searched from my palace. This day will come sooner or later. I guess King Xiang should attack me these days."
"Xiao Yunsheng is meticulous, cruel and harsh. Not to mention his sister, he may not be able to tolerate it. According to the Liang Dynasty people, "All birds are gone, good bows are hidden; cunning rabbits die, and lack dogs are cooked. He knew that my identity would not allow me to leave the capital alive. Since my sister was determined to rescue King Yu, then my sister would give her help, which was also a kind of repayment to her sister."
"Yun Qi followed my character and was somewhat uncontested, but he was one of the three living princes and the most favorable competitor to the throne. Xiao Yunsheng would never let him go. Ruoyuan, I just want you to help me protect Yun Qi and make sure to leave alive. Moreover, I also want him to bear the hatred of killing his father and mother, and ignite his ambition to fight for the world!"
At this time, Concubine Du was no longer the humble, tolerant, polite and kind good-looking person that had always been in front of people. The determination and desire to stir up the storm in her eyes flashed in her eyes. Finally, Yingcairen re-seemed the momentum of being the first female killer in the organization in the rumor. Although she was still dressed in noble concubine costumes, Yingcairen knew that in her bones, the blood of the Mobei woman had never disappeared.
"I promise you, sister! I will definitely try every means to save King Yu!"
To the northwest of the imperial city is a dilapidated and disrepaired palace. It is one of the earliest palaces built by Daliang Imperial City.
A hundred years ago, when the Xiao family won the world, they chose to establish the capital in Xuancheng. Because of the rush of time, they chose this piece of land as the imperial city to build it. However, as the royal family moved in, they found that the land was low-lying and poorly drained. Once the rainy season and the sunset were in the rainy season, it was sultry and hot; and in winter it was biting cold.
So the royal family decided to choose a higher terrain to build a new imperial city. It was very surprising that it was a Feng Shui treasure land just not far from the old palace. People were also wondering why the ancestors of the Xiao family did not discover it. After more than ten years, the strength of the Liang Dynasty increased greatly, so it took several years to build a batch of new palaces, which are the Liang Dynasty imperial city that people can see today.
Originally, those old palaces were abandoned, but later they were used as cold palaces by emperors of all dynasties to accommodate white-headed palace maids and deposed concubines. Over time, the cold palace became increasingly dilapidated and deserted, because the concubines who died in the cold palace were not allowed to be transported out of the palace and returned to their families, and they had to be kept in this cold palace for burial. Gradually, there were rumors that the cold palace was haunted, and no one was willing to approach it.
Only those servants and palace maids with the lowest level had to come to deliver meals every day, but because of fear of being unlucky, they came and went in a hurry every time. Later, some people began to cut corners and reduced the original two meals a day to one meal a day, and only came to the cold palace to deliver meals once a day. Everyone in the palace knew about these practices of the palace people, but both emperors and concubines and all the officials turned a blind eye. After all, those in the cold palace could not be called human beings.
"Life and death have fate, and wealth and honor are in heaven."
Before this palace wall where the original color could no longer be seen, Dan Tai Wengu sighed. He was born in Jinchang City since he was a child and grew up in Jinchang City. The Qianyuan Palace was his first time to enter the capital, and now it is his first time to come to the cold palace.
This is an ominous place, shrouded in sorrow and terrifying crying. As the guards of the imperial city, the soldiers of the God-killing Cavalry must not enter the palace at will without orders, but the Dan Tai family can. During the ten months, Dan Tai Wengu never forgot what Concubine Hui said to him on the day of the celebration. The mother was the vagueest memory he had in the past twenty years, and the memory he wanted to recall the most.
"Since my father never talks about his mother, I can only rely on myself."
Dan Tai Wengu walked around the cold palace for half a circle, and spent half an hour finally discovering a palace gate locked by iron chains. These abandoned palaces should have had more palace gates, but in order to trap the people in the cold palace, they demolished all the original palace gates and changed them into palace walls, leaving only two palace gates, one south and one north, for delivery of food.
If there is no key, the cold palace cannot be accessed. Of course, the people in the palace are not willing to come, but this is not a problem for Dan Tai Wengu. He climbed up a big tree lightly and then jumped, landing steadily in the cold palace.
The cold palace was broken, with weeds half a person tall, and broken tiles all over the ground. This was the best time for spring, but it was still a bleak and desolate place in the cold palace, as if even God had forgotten it.
After walking past the weeds, Dan Tai Wengu walked in the cold palace. His body told him that it was much colder here than outside. He could feel the coldness of the air when he took a breath. Apart from the cold, there was another indescribable smell. For people on the battlefield, Dan Tai Wengu could guess that this was the corruption of the corpse, even if it was very light.
The palaces I passed by were only broken walls and ruins, so people must not be able to live in it. Only two intact palaces in the distance can be used for people to live in. After walking through a weedy field, Dan Tai Wengu saw a towering tree. How big is it? It is estimated that at least five people would need to hug each other. The black bark and dry branches were growing some leaves scattered. However, after careful observation, they found that these leaves were also black.
"There are even big black trees in the world?" Dan Tai Wengu saw it for the first time. He was surprised, but what surprised him even more was that there was a person sitting at the top of the tree, specifically a woman. She crossed her legs, straightened her waist, and looked like she was meditating, her eyes were closed, and her long black and white hair was draped behind her.
During the period when Dan Tai Wengu observed her, the woman remained motionless, as if she was dead, and it seemed that she was just a statue. Dan Tai Wengu tried to keep her steps lighter, and until there was only one person's distance, Dan Tai Wengu finally saw clearly that she was the person she was looking for.
This is the second time Dan Tai Wengu has seen her. Although it has been a month later, it is completely different. The former concubine who was domineering and graceful, is now an old lady who is dressed in plain clothes and is about to fall into vain. The huge gap makes Dan Tai Wengu once doubt whether she was looking for the wrong person.
"You finally came, but fortunately you didn't let me wait too long. If you don't come again, I will be buried in the past with Mrs. Wu."
