The wind blew through the long and narrow palace wall, bringing the chill of ice and snow and the smell of blood. It also made the blood in my body freeze. I felt so cold that I subconsciously stretched out my arms to hug my body.

.

It was only then that I realized that the clothes on my body were in disgraceful torn condition, and I looked like a beggar woman, in a miserable state.

As for the most beautiful woman in the Celestial Dynasty in Chengqian Palace, I always remember her as so beautiful and aloof, like a fairy in the clouds, making all men hold her in their palms, even if they can no longer have her.

I want to keep her in my heart forever.

In comparison, it’s ridiculous for me to be in rags, covered with burns, and look like a beggar.

Yang Yunhui's men and horses immediately surrounded the Chengqian Palace. He walked over and said to Pei Yuanhao: "Your Highness, do you want to go in now?"

Pei Yuanhao looked at Chengqian Palace, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Go to Jingren Palace first!"

Jingren Palace is the residence of Queen Yin. When the people around heard this, their expressions immediately became serious. Although the emperor has been the prince supervising the country since he became seriously ill, in fact everyone knows that it is no longer the case for Queen Yin to interfere in the government affairs.

Secret, even I understand why Queen Yin still wants to do all this when Pei Yuanxiu is already the prince.

I'm afraid that when we went south, she discovered the emperor's decree to pass the throne to the eldest son. That's why she felt that Pei Yuanxiu's position was in danger, so she took all the risks to do this to the emperor, including thousands of miles away.

The plague that controlled Yangzhou City prevented Pei Yuanhao from returning to the palace, hoping to find the jade seal earlier and allow Pei Yuanxiu to officially ascend the throne.

But I didn’t expect that God’s calculations are worse than those of people.

Now, Pei Yuanhao goes to Jingren Palace first, fearing that he will start with her first.

Looking back on everything that happened during this period, I find it a bit funny for some reason. Things in the world are ups and downs, but I didn’t expect that even my heart had been ups and downs many times. At that moment, it should have sunk to the bottom.

It’s nothing, it’s so sad.

Just when I was thinking this, Pei Yuanhao had already walked past me and took my hand.

His hand was still as strong as before, squeezing my slender fingertips, and a burst of warmth surrounded my hands that were as cold as ice cubes.

Normally, such a warm body temperature would have warmed my hands, but today he dragged me to Jingren Palace. The road was so long, and he didn't look back. I just followed in silence until we arrived.

At the end, my fingertips are still cold, as if they refuse any warmth.

He seemed to feel something. He lowered his head and looked at my pale fingers, and then looked into my eyes.

I was held motionless by him, with a dull expression on my face, but even this seemed to irritate him. I saw a trace of anger in his eyes. Just as he was about to say something, he had already entered the scene.

Several advance soldiers from Ren Palace suddenly ran back: "Your Highness!"

"What's the matter?" He immediately turned his head.

"Jingren Palace is empty, the queen is not here!"

"What?" There was a look of astonishment on his face, and he immediately said: "Where have you gone?"

"No, I don't know."

Queen Yin was not in Jingren Palace at this time, but just as we were walking along the way, Yang Yunhui had blocked all the entrances and exits of the palace, and did not see Queen Yin or the people around her. Where would she go?

Pei Yuanhao was silent for a moment, and his expression suddenly changed.

He suddenly let go of my hand, turned around, and strode towards Chengqian Hall.

As soon as the warm hand left, my fingers immediately returned to their previous coldness, and looking at his hurried and impatient back, I seemed to wish I could fly to the Chengqian Palace immediately.

My frozen hands tightened gently.

At this time, Yang Yunhui walked up to me. He glanced at me and said nothing. He only said: "Follow." Then he hurried towards Chengqian Hall.

Chengqian Hall is empty.

The lights here are still bright, fresh and elegant. The sunlight shines through the azure window screens and casts an ice-like crystal light in the room. The dense mountain mist on the three Han jade screens seems to have permeated the entire hall, showing that

The owner has extraordinary taste.

But the owner here has disappeared.

It was as if a treasure had been opened with great vigor, only to find that the entire treasure cave was empty. Pei Yuanhao stood at the door, facing the purity of this room, and his whole face turned pale.

When Yang Yunhui saw this scene, he immediately felt something was wrong and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Third brother, this -"

"..."

"I'll send someone to check right away."

"No need." Pei Yuanhao said slowly. He walked into Chengqian Hall and looked at the layout and furnishings that were exactly the same as before. It seemed that the owner had just left for a while, but everyone knew that there was no owner here anymore.

.

Yang Yunhui broke out in a cold sweat: "If we can't find him, then we-"

If the prince cannot be found, what Pei Yuanhao did today is a complete rebellion!

The emperor is still here, and the imperial decree of passing the throne has been issued, but Pei Yuanhao led the imperial guards to storm into the city, and encountered a bloody battle with the imperial soldiers who were ordered to protect the prince. But now, he broke through the Meridian Gate and entered the palace, but the prince has disappeared.

Got it!

It seems that the imperial soldiers entered the palace not really to protect the prince, but to delay time. Now that the prince, the princess, and Queen Yin are all missing, how will the people of the world view tonight's battle?

, he no longer thinks about it, what’s scary is Pei Yuanhao’s road tomorrow.

Tonight, there has been a river of blood, and the road tomorrow will have to be walked with bloody footprints.

Just thinking about it, I looked up at Pei Yuanhao. His face was pale and his eyes were fixed on a teacup on the table.

It was a delicate white porcelain tea cup, with half a cup of clear tea inside. There was a slight blush on the edge of the cup, as if someone had left a trace of red lips after drinking it.

Pei Yuanhao slowly walked to the table and picked up the cup. There were deep traces of injury in his eyes. With a sudden force, the tea cup shattered in his hand, and his palm was punctured.

, blood suddenly poured out.

The people around him were all anxious and hurriedly gathered around him to bandage him, but he waved his sleeves fiercely and blocked everyone away.

Yang Yunhui seemed to have sensed something, and immediately turned around and ordered: "Go to the north gate first, control the situation, and keep an eye on all the princes and princes!"

Those people took the order and turned around to go down.

I was the only one, I didn’t know where to go, and I couldn’t take the heavy steps under my feet. I could only stand at the door, letting the cold wind blow from behind, just like lying on the cold stone slab that night, letting the cold wind blow.

The earthly energy invaded my body, and I looked at the man in front of me with despair...

"Did you go with him after all?"

His last words, gritted teeth, slowly rang out in the empty hall, with endless hatred, and they also rang in my heart.

After a big war, there is always peace.

The sun shines through the dark clouds on the colorful glazed tiles on the top of the palace, turning into a brilliant light. The white snow stained with blood has melted and been washed away by the well water; the mountains of corpses have been cleaned up long ago, along with the swords and swords on the palace walls.

The scratches and bloody marks were also covered up by the new bright red color.

The entire imperial city has a new look, as if everything is brand new.

Maybe it’s because we want to welcome a new beginning.

Of course, what was left behind by the dramatic changes that night was not just a brand-new imperial city. Although the emperor was still there, although the imperial edict to pass on the throne had been issued, although the whereabouts of the crown prince was unknown, even though the chaos of that night filled the entire place with the smell of blood.

Celestial dynasty, but the change of imperial power is irreversible.

On the second day of the coup in the imperial city, Chang Yanbai and Shen Gongyou, the three princes, led several ministers in the court to report that the emperor's dragon body was hard to recover, the queen had usurped power, and the government was weak. They hoped that the third prince Pei Yuanhao would succeed him.

Great unification, blessing the common people.

Another group of ministers, headed by the crown prince and Taibao Wang Shi, denounced Pei Yuanhao for committing rebellion, attacking the palace with swords, and refused to accept him as king. They knelt down in the Yonghe Palace and asked the emperor to issue an order to severely punish those who murdered the prince.

Murderer.

This stalemate lasted for three days, until on the third day, the Ministry of Punishment arrested Wang Shi and sent him to prison for murdering the emperor. The reason was that the Taiyuan Hospital handed over the medicine list that Queen Yin had given to the emperor and found that it contained herbs.

Aconitum, nux vomica and other drugs that can paralyze nerves, and this prescription was originally presented to Queen Yin by Wang Shi.

As soon as Wang Shi fell, the entire situation in the court began to turn one-sided, and the purge operation was also carried out under such calm.

None of this surprised me. What surprised me was the Taishi Chang Yanbai. He was originally invited by Queen Yin to join forces with Wang Shi to deal with Shen Gongye. I didn't expect that his transformation would be so fast, even worse than Shen Gongye's. Quick, he is the first minister to accept Pei Yuanhao as king.

In fact, I should have known that people are fickle and nothing is eternal.

I stood at the door of my room in Yeting, watching the last withered yellow leaves on the sycamore tree outside fall to the ground, but the branches were already dyed with fresh green.

It’s already the fifth day.

After that coup, there were earth-shaking changes for everyone, except me.

Shangyang Palace has been sealed up. I don't know the reason, but it makes me homeless. Fortunately, I still have a residence here in Yeting. Yu'er has been waiting for amnesty to see me come back safely. Naturally, I was overjoyed and held me to sleep for several nights, like a child attached to its mother.

In the past few days, Pei Yuanhao seems to have forgotten my existence, and I have never seen him again.

Come to think of it, now he is already wearing a yellow robe, and he is just waiting to choose a good and auspicious day to officially ascend the throne. Although Wang Shi has fallen, there are still some voices of dissatisfaction in the court, and they are still being killed and blocked. Scholars all over the world are denouncing him. His cruelty and cruelty, in such a troubled and troubled time, the imperial power that is so close at hand is also in danger.

I heard that he hasn't slept a wink for several days.

I didn't take the initiative to look for him. I just stood at the door every day and looked at the long road in Yeting.
