The capital city shrouded in darkness was eerily silent, with only the faint sound of a watchman coming from the distance. The ice and snow in early spring melted, blowing the wind mixed with the wind that was about to leave the winter, causing a chill.
Along the way, Shen Zhiyi snuggled in Jiang Yubai's arms, trembling slightly. He pulled off his cloak with one hand and wrapped Shen Zhiyi tightly.
The three of them hurried back to the princess mansion.
The woman wearing a green shirt and white clothes with a high ponytail was leaning on the door with her hands folded in front of her chest, looking him up and down. It was rare to see such a caring side of this cold-faced man, and she couldn't help but be a little impressed.
Jiang Yubai carefully placed Shen Zhiyi on the soft couch, "Her wounds... try not to leave any scars."
ah?
Xie Yuan could not help but doubt his own ears. The iceberg in front of him would worry about whether the girl would have scars one day. She swallowed back the unspoken words, and the corners of her mouth curled up with a smile that could not be hidden in her eyes. .
Yo~ The iron tree is blooming.
Xie Yuan moved very gently, carefully wiping the stains on her face, wiping the jade fat ointment he developed on her wounds, and told Jiang Yubai, "The medicine in the yellow bottle should be taken once in the morning and evening, and the medicine in the red bottle should be taken in the morning, noon and evening." once."
"When she wakes up, just tell her that I don't have time to take care of her."
Pfft, you are tough-talking.
Xie Yuan stood up and said, "This girl looks like a fairy. Which girl is she from?"
"The Shen family."
"What!?"
She resisted Chongdong, who wanted to beat Jiang Yubai to death, and dragged Jiang Yubai outside the door. It was not until the moment she closed the door that she released the breath she was holding in her chest, raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Yubai and said:
"Jiang Yubai! I finally hoped that you would come back alive, but in the end you were handed over to my woman! She is also the daughter of General Shen!"
"You are simply my biological father!"
"Your Highness Princess, I have no such plans for the time being."
Realizing that he had been taken advantage of, Xie Yuan kicked Jiang Yubai, but he cleverly dodged it.
"Your body? How is your recovery?"
"Still the same as before," seeing Jiang Yubai's eyes drooping, the princess sighed and said in an indifferent tone, "It's bad, I can't die anyway."
Xie Yuan was the princess of the current dynasty. Back then, the emperor spared no effort in red makeup and spent tens of thousands of taels of gold to marry the Song family. When the country was weak, the ceremony for the title of queen was unprecedentedly prosperous.
Legend has it that the Song family gave birth to a son and a daughter for the emperor. She suffered a hemorrhagic collapse during delivery and died immediately. The emperor was so distraught that he took out the accident on his two newborn children. Emperor Jing's temperament changed drastically, and that night he captured Song Tingwan's sister Song Wanqing as the new queen.
The national funeral and wedding were held at the same time, which became the biggest joke in the world!
"This is my life...I accept it..."
Jiang Yubai took over the task of rectifying the riots in Shu regardless of the risks. One of the reasons was that he heard that there was a miracle doctor in Shu who was unpredictable, moody, and always crazy.
From the description, he looked very much like his uncle, the mad genius doctor Cen Fengxu.
Uncle Master...where have you been...why are you hiding from us?
After the death of the empress, the two were raised by the step-empress Song Tingwan.
Xie Yuan is just a princess, and the queen often murmurs: "Princess... always has to get married. Once you marry someone, you become someone else's daughter-in-law."
She was always the one who was ignored. Once, she lay in bed with a fever for a whole day and night. Cen Fengxu found her and saved her life. Unfortunately, the root cause of the disease was revealed.
From the day he was born, the prince Xie Yu was cherished by Song Wanqing like a treasure. When she was still in her infancy, Song Wanqing did all the affairs by herself, and even her sister could not interfere.
The only one who loves her is her master, Cen Fengxu.
Until when Xie Yu was five years old, because she missed her mother too much and wanted to see the things her mother had used before her death, he moved a table and stepped on it and stood up on tiptoes to try hard. However, he accidentally knocked over the relics left by his biological mother. Emperor Jing could not wait to see them. He was cut into pieces by a thousand cuts.
It was Song Wanqing who knelt outside the emperor's palace all night, with her wrists on the ground, copying scriptures for the late empress, begging her for forgiveness, until her fingers were worn out and the last stroke of red ink fell down the tip of her nose. The emperor This exempted Xie Yu from the death penalty.
Death penalty cannot be avoided, and living crime cannot be avoided. The prince and queen were punished to go to the imperial mausoleum, and they were queens every day. They were not allowed to set foot in the capital.
And she was kicked out of the palace when she was eleven years old, and she was still living in the princess's mansion outside the palace.
Soon after, the emperor personally named her Princess Yong'an. The canonization ceremony followed royal etiquette and even granted permission for Xie Yu and others to return to Beijing. However, Emperor Jing never said a word to them during the ceremony.
Looking at Shen Zhiyi, who was covered in sweat and in shock, muttering "Mother, father..." Xie Yuan didn't know when a trace of love arose in his heart, and he looked at the girl on the bed with distressed eyes.
Xie Yuan tidied himself up for a moment, adjusted his disrupted breathing rhythm, took a deep breath, and cursed earnestly.
"Damn it, why did you bring a big girl back to your house?" Xie Yuan didn't know how to describe it for a while, and thought for a moment, "It's like, you... are evil and crooked, but she is from a well-known and upright family. "
Xie Yuan muttered that this little girl was a trouble and didn't want to see her. His bony hands were already covered with water drops, and he wiped Shen Zhiyi's forehead gently.
"Mother... don't leave... please sister, please let my family go..."
"Just let them go...just come to me..."
"Xie Shaoheng...Xie Shaoheng..."
The scene of rivers of blood and corpses everywhere in Shen's house suddenly flooded into Shen Zhiyi's dream, and she wanted to grab her mother's hand.
"Auntie, give me your hand!"
The raging flames burned her face hot, and the smoke penetrated into her throat. Even her shouts were hoarse, and her cries were mixed in the air. Shen Zhiyi was about to reach her mother's hand. , the eaves suddenly crashed down, forcibly separating the two people.
"Aniang!"
Shen Zhiyi rushed into the fire, her black pupils reflected the light of the soldering iron, and the noise of the burning flames continued to reach her ears. Xie Shaoheng carefully selected a piece of the reddest soldering iron and placed it gently on her face. superior.
"You traveled a lot for me back then. You obviously don't know martial arts, but you are a rare military genius in thousands of years. I value love and justice. As long as you hand over that military book, I will spare your life."
"That military book is the hard work of my brother and I, as well as all the soldiers. How could it be handed over to a despicable person like you?"
"Valuing love and righteousness? Bah! You slaughtered all your brothers and sisters within half a year after you ascended the throne, and you didn't even spare the female family members! There were even infant children! You killed my parents and wiped out my entire clan, and you still have the nerve to do it. Want to talk about friendship with me?"
Ha ha ha ha--
Shen Zhiyi had blood in his mouth, his laughter echoed in the cell, and his eyes were red with tears as he looked at the bright full moon through the window. Tonight was supposed to be the Mid-Autumn Festival...
The radiance of the moon shone on the earth, and just the ray of moonlight glimpsed through the small window made her breathless, and a line of tears streaked across the corner of her eyes.
What exactly happened to you?
Jiang Yubai reached out and brushed away the tears from his eyes. The hot tears spread on his fingertips and turned into ashes with a slight twist.
Xian Qing stepped forward and reported: "Father, the Shen family and his son have mobilized a team of personal guards and are looking for Miss Shen."
If the person is not returned, when the Shen family and his son find out, they will have to fight to the death with Jiang Yubai.
"Go and inform General Shen that Miss Shen will stay at the Princess Mansion tonight."
The calluses touched the letter paper that had not yet dried, and the remaining black ink stayed on the fingertips of Old General Shen.
How audacious and lawless!
She must be taught a lesson when she comes back!
General Shen An turned to comfort the eldest lady and told her that her daughter was safe. His helpless tone was mixed with anger, "It's all because of you!"
For no reason, why does his daughter have anything to do with the princess mansion?
The eldest lady didn't have time to think about it carefully, so she could only wait for Shen Zhiyi to come back and ask clearly.
Shen Qinghe knelt down in front of the two elders, his forehead was bruised and he was crying so hard that his delicate appearance was still as heart-wrenching as in the last life.
"It's all my fault. My sister wanted to see Third Prince Xie, but I didn't bring her back."
After saying that, when Shen Qinghe was about to kowtow again, Shen Zhiyun quickly helped her up with quick eyes and hands, and kept comforting the sobbing Shen Qinghe, "It's not your fault."
"Father, since Yi'er likes her, then let her do whatever she wants. I will propose to Your Majesty tomorrow."
"Nonsense! You can't go!"
"Why?"
"I'm an old man, so if I go, I'll go too!"
If Yi'er is still so willful and disregards etiquette and law, then he will personally enforce the family law!
Being so willful, the girl stayed away from home all night. If word spread, what would outsiders think of the Shen family? If she doesn't discipline her anymore and marries into the Xie family royal family, the palace's strict rules will not allow her to be any willful. If she behaves like this, she may cause some trouble in the future!
Shen Zhiyun always felt uneasy in his heart.
Shen Zhiyun was stationed at the border these years and rarely saw his sister. He always felt indebted. Even if Zhiyun wanted the stars in the sky, he would climb up with a ladder and pick them for her.
Shen Qinghe leaned against him with dim eyes. There were many thugs in the mass graves, the mountain road was rugged and difficult to walk, and she was injured even if she didn't die. How could she be inexplicably related to the princess?
What a bargain for that idiot!
Shen Zhiyi was still imprisoned in the nightmare of torture in her previous life and could not come out for a long time. Xie Yuan held her hand tightly, and the warmth flowed from the palm of his hand to the bottom of his heart.
"don't want!"
"don't want!"
Shen Zhiyi was awakened by a nightmare, and when she opened her eyes and saw Xie Yuan's cheek, she was so shocked that she instantly withdrew the hand she was holding. The princess who had been taking a nap also woke up and looked at her.
your Highness? Is this the princess mansion? Why is she here?
Seeing her reaction, Xie Yuan couldn't help but laugh out loud. He clenched his right hand into a fist and put it on the tip of his lips.
"Don't be afraid, Miss Shen. This is the princess's mansion and no one will bully you."
Shen Zhiyi was about to breathe a sigh of relief when she looked up and saw Jiang Yubai, who had been guarding her all night. She instantly became nervous, her face turned pale, and she desperately wanted to find a bunker to hide herself.
The awkward movements caught the eyes of the two of them, and Jiang Yubai didn't know how to speak.
The princess glared at Jiang Yubai fiercely, as if to warn, "Don't scare her again!"
"Don't worry, Miss Shen. In the Princess Mansion, even the governor will not dare to make mistakes."
