The afterglow of the setting sun spilled into the Xinuang Pavilion of the East Palace through the screen window, adding some warmth to the quiet room.

Concubine Chen Gui sat at the top and carefully looked at Chen Jia who was sitting below.

She thought she might not know this niece well.

On the day Chen Jia was born, she happened to go back to Chen's residence to visit her relatives, so she encountered the situation of giving birth that day.

As the baby's first cries sounded in the delivery room, she heard a strange bird cry.

Looking up, there was a bird standing on the sycamore tree in the courtyard. She had never seen such an energetic bird.

The baby's cries gradually subsided, and the bird flew away from the Chen Mansion. The sky it passed by was full of magnificent clouds.

She thought that this child might be a little different from ordinary people.

It was only later that she realized that the bird that day was actually the divine bird Phoenix.

She didn't dare to underestimate this niece even more, and every year she would spend some time trying to please Chen Jia and make the relationship between the two closer.

Gradually, the relationship between her and her niece became much closer, and the correspondence between the two gradually became more frequent.

Judging from the words in the letter, she thought that Chen Jia was a talented girl who only knew how to watch flowers and drink tea.

But when Chen Jia returned to the palace, she saw that the niece kept a low profile and never provoked trouble, so she knew that the child was not just as simple as the letter showed.

Chen Jia just revealed the side she was willing to show.

A few months ago, when the divine monk from the National Temple came back from her wanderings, she asked the divine monk to test Chen Jia's fate, and only then did she know that Chen Jia's fate was the rare "Huang Nu" fate in a hundred years.

Huangnu is the queen who is destined to be born.

It was also from then on that she had the idea of ​​bringing her niece and daughter together.

When Chen Jia faced Concubine Chen Gui, she was very calm.

When she eavesdropped on that passage in the prince's dormitory before, she knew that her aunt was not only an elder who loved her, but also a winner who was familiar with the struggle in the palace.

She could only maintain the mentality of saying less and making fewer mistakes, waiting for her aunt to speak first.

"When did you know?" Concubine Chen Guifei casually touched the lid of the cup, her bright red nails on the white celadon looked really pretty, adding a sense of laziness and coquettishness.

"Fairly."

Chen Jia felt that the prince and Concubine Chen did not resemble each other at all.

One is charming and scheming, and the other is heroic and graceful when awake, with a demeanor like the breeze and the moon, but innocent and clever when he is foolish, there is a huge difference between the two.

If you spend too long with a woman like Concubine Chen, you will be cautious and unconsciously tense. For example, at this moment, she doesn't even dare to take up all the stools under her seat.

Fortunately, it will not be Concubine Chen Guifei who will live with her in the future.

"Just now? As expected of the most talented woman in Beijing, she is really smart." Concubine Chen Guifei gently put down the teacup, and started another topic, "Why did you accept the marriage order from this palace before?"

She knew that her elder brother did not want Chen Jia to marry into the palace and marry a half-dead prince, but the imperial decree was still in Chen's residence, and it was Chen Jia who accepted it.

"The crown prince has a celestial appearance and an unparalleled demeanor. He is the most favorite husband-in-law candidate for the daughters' families in the capital. Jiajia naturally has such thoughts in mind."

Chen Jia talked nonsense without blushing, hoping to fool Concubine Chen Gui.

The past between her and the prince is a secret between them, and no one else wants to know it except them.Now that the other person doesn't remember, she has to protect her and wait for that person to wake up.

Concubine Chen Gui squeezed the brocade handkerchief in her hand, but she still didn't quite believe Chen Jia's words.

After all, it is too rare for this daughter and daughter to get married. If one of them is not her daughter, she thinks it will be difficult for her to accept it.

She understands that she is a selfish person who only cares about those she loves.Of course, if Chen Jia really married Yi'er and treated Yi'er wholeheartedly, she would also be willing to protect Chen Jia under her wings.

"Now that your father has asked the emperor to refuse the marriage and made you a princess, this marriage will never come true."

Chen Jia was also quite troubled by this matter, he had to listen to his father's words, and even more irresistible to the emperor's will.For a while, she couldn't think of any solution.

Concubine Chen Gui saw that Chen Jia lowered her head and didn't reveal her feelings anymore, she felt unhappy and couldn't help being angry, "Yi'er is just a child now, she doesn't even know what she has done, so what she did to you just now , don't take it too seriously."

After saying that, he rolled his eyes and said again: "It's likely that a little girl will come tomorrow, and she will go up to ask for candy again."

She felt that Chen Jia's appearance didn't seem to have the slightest affection for Yi'er. If she couldn't even stimulate her with what she said just now, then this marriage will be dirty if it turns out to be bad. very?

Chen Jiasu always does what he wants, but he is stubborn about the prince.

Ever since she saw the exiled prince under the city wall when she was ten years old, a person lived in her heart.

At that time, the girl was still naive and ignorant, and she didn't know what love was. It was only derived from her admiration for beauty, and a shadow was carved in her heart.

Maybe that was the ignorant first love.

At the age of 11, wars broke out in Yunnan.

When the enemy invaded the Yunnan Palace, she ran into the enemy outside.

It was the prince who rescued her at the critical moment, and she has followed him since then.

The military situation is critical, and the enemy army marches triumphantly all the way, even the prince's camp has become a battlefield.

The prince fought side by side with her on the battlefield, escaped in the dark night, and avoided the enemy in the cold pool... All these formed bright pictures and were sealed in her memory.

Those beautiful scrolls are gradually woven into a new world, called the beginning of love.

After the civil strife in Yunnan was over, she separated from the prince and returned to Beijing.It's just that she didn't know the identity of a "boy" at that time.

She often recalls those alone times, reads those affectionate poems, prays in the small Buddhist hall at home, and sees that person again.

I don't know where to start lovesickness, and who to pay for with a heart.

Girls in Beijing have to see each other since they are 12 years old. After they are optimistic, they will marry for three years. When they are 15 years old, they can leave the court after paying the ceremony.

She acted like a baby to her parents and adults, laughing and saying that she wanted to accompany the two elders for life.

Only she knows that she has been waiting for that person, that elegant "youth".

It's just that she didn't expect that the man was actually the prince, who was only a palace wall away from her.

Chen Jia finally raised her head and looked directly at the person above her, "I am willing to wait for her to wake up, and she will definitely take care of all this and never let me down."

Whether it's the princess, or the emperor and her father's objection, she believes that the prince will be able to solve it.

Just like the days of fleeing, she gave her life to that person, and that person never hurt her.

Her trust is unreserved.

"You trust Yi'er so much?" Concubine Chen Gui was a little moved, "You don't mind that she is a woman and she lied to you?"

"What about women? Could it be that if you change your gender, you have to let go of your deep-rooted temperament and past grievances?"

If she only likes a man, she doesn't have to endure such a long wait.

"It is said that the crown prince of the country is the prince, not the prince's daughter, but hasn't she been the prince steadily for 16 years?"

Chen Jia finished his words in one breath, expressing his determination sincerely and firmly.

Concubine Chen Gui finally confirmed Chen Jia's intentions, took off her precautions, and fully accepted Chen Jia.

But after a while, her expression was tangled, as if there was something hard to say.

"Jiajia, my aunt has to confess something to you today."

Chen Jia had a bad premonition in his heart, and he unconsciously clenched the hand holding the teacup.

"Yi'er had a marriage, a marriage with the Nanqiang Princess, but because of..."

"bang"

The crisp sound of fragments entered Chen Jia's heart, like a thunderbolt on the ground.

The warm tea has already wetted the delicate skirt, which is covered with tea dregs, which is really embarrassing.
