Dress up as a queen and start the game with a card drawing system

"Yingli, have you stayed here since I left during the day?"

Qi Yun's voice sounded above his head.

"Uh-huh."

Yingli's thoughts gradually returned.

"Did anyone else come in during the day?"

"No."

Qi Yun hugged him tighter.

"Qi...yun."

"Ok?"

"I can't breathe."

"Oh!" Qi Yun reacted and relaxed a little, "Is this okay?"

Actually, it's still a bit lame.

However, Yingli leaned his head in her arms and said softly "Hmm".

"Are you going out tomorrow?" he asked.

"Well, I'm looking for someone."

Hearing this answer, Yingli felt a little uncomfortable, "Looking for Yingquan?"

Qi Yun nodded, "If you think about it carefully, is there an older brother or younger brother with this name?"

Yingli shook his head.

Although Yingli is young, he has been reading for a while, and it is extraordinary to understand the word Quan.

A prince who can be named after the word Quan must have a transcendent status.

None of the favored brothers in Yingli have this name.

She didn't know where she heard the name, so she took the risk of sneaking into the Daxia Palace to look for a needle in a haystack.

Yingli wanted to tell her the truth, but he opened his mouth but no sound came out.

If she knew that there was no prince named Ying Quan in the palace, would she have left the palace? Have you left yourself?

Yingli suddenly grasped Qi Yun's clothes in the darkness.

Tell her tomorrow.

*

The next morning, the two ate the snacks left yesterday, and Qi Yun walked out of the cold palace under the watch of Ying Li.

After she left, Yingli looked at the empty palace and suddenly felt a little deserted.

A confused look appeared on Yingli's face.

Obviously, it has always been so deserted here.

Yingli walked to the front door of Leng Palace, sat on the steps, and looked at the bleak palace road in front of him. He sat there for the whole day without realizing it.

Waiting until the sun was about to set, Yingli didn't wait for the person he wanted to see to come back, but he saw a group of palace people walking on the palace road.

"Slave Li Yun has met His Highness the Ninth Prince!"

The leader of the palace was very respectful to him, but Yingli had a vague premonition in his heart.

"Who are you?"

"The servants are here to take you to Fengzao Palace on His Majesty's orders."

Yingli was extremely surprised.

Fengzao Palace, that is the queen's palace.

How could the queen allow herself to live in her palace?

"Mother, you have so many things to do, why do you think of me?"

The eunuch said: "Your Highness does not know something. This afternoon, Your Majesty held a banquet in the Dengxian Pavilion. The guards caught a palace maid who accidentally entered the banquet. They were going to kill her. Who knew that the palace maid actually risked her life and rushed to the palace to serve you? Speak uprightly..."

"Your Majesty has just learned that your Majesty, your Majesty, has been abused in every possible way by that ungrateful slave all day long in the cold palace. His Majesty lost his temper and even the Queen was reprimanded..."

Hearing that Qi Yun was almost sentenced to death, Yingli couldn't listen to what this person said next. He hurriedly asked: "How is she?"

"You mean that palace maid?"

Yingli nodded.

The eunuch said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty Ninth. His Majesty praised her loyalty and pardoned her sins. The imperial concubine liked her temperament, so she asked for a favor from your Majesty and kept her by your side to serve her."

Yingli felt relieved.

He was taken to the queen's palace.

The queen had no children, so she wanted to win over him and was very kind to him.

However, amidst this dense kindness, was the Queen's extreme desire to control him.

Every moment of Yingli's day, everything he did was carefully arranged and calculated by the queen.

What you eat, what you drink, what you wear, what you study, what you practice martial arts, when you go to bed and when you get up all need to strictly comply with the Queen's standards.

A slight deviation would be a punishment with no visible scars.

Yingli didn't have any time to breathe. Whenever he was lying in bed in the dead of night, he only had a little time to himself.

The queen only gave him two hours of sleep every day. Sometimes when he couldn't sleep, Yingli would think about her and talk to her in his heart.

If she were here, his life would not be so boring.

Yingli complained a little bit about Qi Yun, who didn't even look at him after such a long time.

But then he changed his mind and hoped that she would never come to Fengzao Palace.

Her noisy and bold temperament would be a catastrophe if the queen's men saw her.

"When you come to Zhongzi, there is no way beyond me."

I didn't know the meaning of the poem before, but now I can actually understand it.

I'm both looking forward to her coming, but also afraid of her coming.

It's not that she's afraid of being frightened, but that she'll be hurt.

Finally, one day two years later, he found an opportunity at a palace banquet, sneaked near the imperial concubine's palace, and asked a palace official about her whereabouts.

"That palace maid is gone a long time ago."

The little eunuch sweeping the floor sounded casual as if there was no leaf on the tree.

"On the second day she was on duty in the imperial concubine's palace, the imperial concubine's jewelry was found on her body. She stole the palace property and was executed with a cane."

Yingli's brain went blank at this moment.

She is dead.

Died three years ago.

how come……

How could such a smart and clever person die like this?

She said she was looking for someone, and the person she was looking for was his brother, named Ying Quan.

How could she die like this when she hasn't been found yet?

Yingli walked along the palace road in a daze. When he came to his senses, he found that he had arrived at the cold palace at some point.

Standing in front of the dilapidated palace, Yingli didn't dare to open the door and enter.

His mind was full of Qi Yun.

Her cheerful and sunny smile, her harmless pranks, her warm embrace, and her stubbornness that she would rather die than speak out to her father...

No more.

The person who suddenly appeared in his life and made him feel the sudden drop of the warm sun was gone.

It was gone three years ago.

In the past three years, he has been acting on his own initiative.

It turns out that a person's life is so fragile.

She was briefly like a dream that had never existed. Before she had time to touch and understand it, she had already disappeared without a trace.

Yingli closed his eyes as if a piece of his heart had been cut out.

Perhaps, people like me are not born worthy of having...

A tear fell on the worn floor tiles of the cold palace, but it was quickly dried by the cold wind and left no trace.
