When Yunchu was very young, he went to Baihua Pavilion.
But it all happened in her last life. After so many years, she had long forgotten the way to Baihua Pavilion.
She followed the little eunuch, and something became more and more strange as she walked.
"Miss Yun, just go around here, ladies and gentlemen should have arrived a long time ago." The little eunuch led her to the palace in front.
Yunchu saw that this was a main hall, and the door was full of chrysanthemums of various colors, swaying in the autumn wind.
The Baihua Pavilion in my impression does not seem to look like this.
She paused in her steps and looked at the little eunuch in front of her with burning eyes: "Are you really from the Queen's Palace?"
The little eunuch's expression suddenly changed.
He pushed Yun Chu violently, and Yun Chu stumbled on the threshold and fell into the palace gate.
Tingxue quickly rushed over and helped her up.
The dagger hidden in her sleeve was instantly unsheathed, she pressed the red button, and with a whoosh, a hidden weapon flew towards the eunuch's face.
The eunuch blocked it with his hand, and the hidden weapon penetrated directly through his entire palm.
He didn't even care about his injuries. He stepped forward and closed the palace door with a clang and a big lock.
"Is the lady injured anywhere?" Tingxue quickly checked Yunchu.
Yun Chu shook his head and said with great regret: "What a pity about that hidden weapon."
There are only three in total, which is really a pity.
Tingxue looked around: "This palace looks like it has been unoccupied for a long time. I will go and see if there are any chairs or other things that have been dug out."
Yun Chu made an unnecessary gesture.
The little eunuch locked her up in this long-uninhabited palace and left. He must have something to rely on.
There should be something hidden in this palace.
She clenched the dagger in her hand and looked up at the majestic hall. Looking in from the sunny outside, she could only see darkness.
Like a bottomless mouth in the night, boundless fear spreads out.
People who have died once in Yunchu are naturally not afraid of this.
But she wasn't stupid enough to go straight up the steps and into the temple.
She carefully walked around the main entrance and walked slowly toward the back. There were thick trees there. Maybe she could use the big trees to get out of here first.
Walking to the back, the chrysanthemums were blooming, which was particularly eye-catching.
"Miss, there seems to be a sound..."
Yun Chu also heard the sound and signaled to listen to Xue Silence.
She asked Tingxue to stand where she was, and slowly moved her body along the palace wall. The sound became more and more obvious, and she heard the sound of water flowing.
Going around the wall, she saw a man sitting in a pavilion in the backyard, drinking one cup after another.
She smelled strongly of alcohol.
She frowned slightly.
Did the little eunuch bring her here to plan for her to be caught up with this drunk man and ruin her innocence?
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The man suddenly stood up and walked towards Yunchu's direction.
Yun Chu immediately held his breath and concentrated, pressing his fingers on the hidden weapon, looking ready to go.
However, the man stopped in front of the palace wall and spilled a glass of wine on the autumn chrysanthemums blooming enthusiastically along the palace wall.
"How, how...how should I do!"
The man raised his hand and slammed the wine cup against the palace wall.
The cup shattered and porcelain pieces flew, almost falling on Yunchu's face.
She had no expression on her face and was still observing the man.
This man was dressed in rich clothes, with a rare mutton-fat jade crown on his head, and a jade pendant hanging around his waist. She recognized it. This was a jade pendant that could only be owned by members of the royal family.
She knew all the princes, and some of the princes who were equal to the emperor were not in the capital. Who was this person?
Yun Chu looked at the man's appearance. He looked very thin and his skin was very pale, giving him the feeling of being sick all year round... Wait, isn't there a sick man in the royal family?
The legitimate son of the former Crown Prince and the only grandson of the current Queen Mother, Prince Zhuang Chu Rui.
Is this man Prince Zhuang?
There was disbelief on Yun Chu's face.
Who is plotting against her and Prince Zhuang, and what is their purpose?
"Uh-huh!"
While she was deep in thought, she saw the man who was only three steps away from her and suddenly drew out the sword from his waist.
She should have thought that Prince Zhuang had discovered her.
Unexpectedly, Prince Zhuang pressed the sword edge against his wrist and slowly cut it down bit by bit.
The blood soon seeped out and dripped on the bright autumn chrysanthemums.
He was still pressing down on the sword's edge.
How could Yun Chu hide?
If Prince Zhuang died in front of her, she would not be able to escape even if she jumped into the Yellow River.
She stood up abruptly.
Chu Rui, who was standing in front of the palace wall, was stunned.
His eyes fell on Yun Chu's face and he murmured: "Sister, you are finally back..."
Yun Chu heard her mother mention that the former crown prince had a legitimate daughter. Later, the former crown prince died and the current emperor succeeded. The former crown princess and her son and daughter probably lived in this palace.
Not long after, the former crown princess died.
As for when the princess died, not many people knew.
"Eldest sister, Rui'er misses you so much..." Chu Rui burst into tears, "I finally made up my mind to see you, eldest sister, please wait for me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up the sword and pressed it on his neck.
"Prince Zhuang!" Yun Chu shouted, and immediately realized something was wrong. She quickly changed her words, "Rui'er, I am the eldest sister. I came to see you. I don't allow you to hurt yourself like this. Can you give the sword to the eldest sister... …”
Her gentle voice made Chu Rui completely relax.
Chu Rui stretched out his hand, slowly moved forward, and touched Yunchu's face. When he touched the real thing, his whole face showed shock.
Immediately, the drunkenness in his eyes dissipated a little, and he became sober: "You are not the eldest sister!"
Yun Chu took the opportunity to snatch the long sword from his hand and saluted: "I have met Prince Zhuang. I am the eldest daughter of the Yun family. I will obey the authority in urgent matters. Please forgive me."
Chu Rui's face was as gloomy as water: "You have offended my eldest sister, what crime should you deserve!"
As he spoke, blood was still dripping from his wrist.
Yunchu stretched out his hand, and Tingxue behind him immediately brought a handkerchief over. She lowered her head and tied the handkerchief around Chu Rui's wrist, tightening it tightly to stop the bleeding.
"It is indeed my daughter who offended me." Yun Chu looked up at him, "The body is affected by your parents. No matter what the prince does, you should not harm your body. Furthermore, the queen mother is old. If the prince passes away, the queen mother is afraid that she will die. …”
In his previous life, Prince Zhuang had indeed died early, probably after the turmoil in the Yun family had settled, and he had died to apologize and give the Queen Mother a chance to live.
It didn't matter when this person died, but he couldn't die in front of her.
She still has many wonderful things to experience in the future and will not let herself get involved in such a quagmire.
Chu Rui's lips tightened into a straight line.
He lives because of the Queen Mother.
I also want to die because of the Queen Mother.
Life is too contradictory.
"You hate everything now, why can't you die?" Chu Rui's voice was full of emptiness, "What's the point of living a life of idiocy?"
"If you hate it, then abandon it." Yun Chu looked directly at him, "Every loss must be gained. If you lose what you don't deserve, you may get something unexpected. Why don't you give it a try?"
"Everything you lose must be a gain, and every loss must be a gain..."
Chu Rui murmured.
Immediately, he looked at Yunchu suddenly: "Why are you here? This is not a good place. Leave quickly!"
