don't forget lovesickness

The grass grows and the warbler flies in April, and the breeze makes people feel refreshed.

Today, the capital of the Jokhang Dynasty—Jiangjing ushered in a wedding that was three years late, the wedding between Princess Lehua of the Jokhang Dynasty and Han Yunzhu, deputy commander of the Xuan Ce Army, one of the four armies of the Jokhang Dynasty.Everyone knows that the two are talented and beautiful, and they grew up together as childhood sweethearts. They had already made an engagement to marry the eldest princess when she was 19 years old, but the emperor died early. In order to show her filial piety, the eldest princess postponed the wedding for a whole day three years.

The crowds in the streets of Beijing were surging, and everyone was looking forward to seeing the beauty of the first beauty of the Jokhang Dynasty, Princess Lehua—Xiao Yunhuan.

"I heard that the eldest princess looks like a fairy, and seeing the crowd surging, I think it is true." A spectator sitting in the restaurant glanced at the crowd on the street, and said to himself in a moderate voice .

A person at the next table heard the words and quickly answered, "It seems that this young master is not from our Dazhao whole capital, but all the people in the whole capital are not unaware of this matter."

The spectator smiled and said: "What brother said is that I am indeed not from the whole capital, but came from other places. It has long been spread in Dazhao that the eldest princess is married, so I came to join in the fun."

The man understood clearly, and said enthusiastically: "I am fortunate to have met the Eldest Princess once. One year before the late Emperor passed away, the Eldest Princess traveled to a temple outside the city to pray for the seriously ill late Emperor. That day the crowd was also like today, and I happened to be standing at the front, so I saw it. Although the princess was covered with a veil, I knew it at a glance. I am afraid that I will never see a woman more beautiful than the eldest princess. regret."

The spectator nodded, looked at the street and continued, "I don't know if I will be lucky enough to see the face of the Eldest Princess today."

The man shook his head helplessly: "I'm afraid I won't see you today. She is the bride after all, so she won't get out of the carriage."

The spectator nodded with some regret: "What brother said is that I am dull."

The man patted the shoulders of the spectators, and continued: "It's okay, today's grand occasion is rare, and it's worth the trip. The saint announced to the world that he will marry the eldest princess with the highest wedding ceremony."

"By the way, this young general Han has a mansion in Quanjing, but why didn't he let him come to Quanjing to marry the eldest princess, but sent the eldest princess to Beicheng in the north?"

"You don't know about this. General Han and his elder brother, General Han, are guarding Beicheng together. They have a heavy responsibility. In order to protect the safety of the border, His Majesty authorized it."

The spectator smiled gratefully at the man: "I see, thank you for your advice, brother."

The man waved his hand indifferently, then turned around and sat back in his seat.

The spectator turned his head, stared at the surging crowd thoughtfully, then put down the teacup in his hand, dropped an ingot of broken silver, and left.

The Jokhang Palace was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and it was full of joy.In the palace of the eldest princess, eunuchs and court ladies came and went, and everyone had joy on their faces.

In front of the dressing table in the bedroom, a woman was sitting quietly, her eyes were lowered and she said nothing, she couldn't tell whether she was happy or sad, and she let the maids dress up, and this was the Eldest Princess Lehua— — Xiao Yunhuan.After the maid dressed up Xiao Yunhuan, she brought Fengguanxiapei to put on for her.

"The empress is here!" A shrill shout sounded, and everyone quickly stopped what they were doing, and knelt down to welcome the visitor.

Surrounded by everyone, Qin Yurou walked in, and at a glance she saw Xiao Yunhuan in a wedding dress but her back was facing her. Such a graceful figure made her stupefied as a woman, and she couldn't help but think of the day she entered the palace. The Queen's Grand Ceremony is as attractive as the person in front of her.

"Lehua." Qin Yurou quickly withdrew her thoughts, adjusted herself, and called out to Xiao Yun in a soft voice.

Only then did Xiao Yunhuan slowly open her eyes. There was no wave in her pitch-black eyes, and there was no sound. She got up and turned around slowly to look at Qin Yurou who was slowly approaching. She bent her knees slightly and said softly, "See the queen."

Qin Yurou stepped forward to help her up, and said with a smile: "Today is your wedding day, let me see if I can help you, I don't know when we will see you again, General Xuan Ce's mansion is far away in Dazhao The northernmost point, it will take a month to go back and forth, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to see again, I can't help but feel a little sad when I think of this place." After speaking, he sighed slightly.

Xiao Yunhuan got up, looked at Qin Yurou with deep eyes, but suddenly laughed softly: "Really?"

Qin Yurou was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously avoided Xiao Yunhuan's eyes. She was a little afraid to look at her. Xiao Yunhuan seemed to be able to see through everything, which made her flustered uncontrollably, and quickly said to the court ladies kneeling around. : "Today is the day when the eldest princess gets married. Everything must be done properly, and there must be no mistakes. If something goes wrong, be careful with your heads."

Everyone bowed lower, and quickly responded: "Wei!"

"See Empress Empress, Your Highness the Eldest Princess."

Qin Yurou turned her head to look, and it turned out to be Chang Yuan, the eunuch close to the emperor, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Excuse me, Manager Chang."

"Thank you Empress Empress, thank you Your Royal Highness, Princess Chang," Chang Yuan stood up, and said with a smile, "Our family has been told by the saint that the auspicious time is coming soon. Please, Your Royal Highness, please go to the Hall of Yude to salute. The Empress went to preside over the grand ceremony, and now the Empress Empress is also here, just right."

Qin Yurou nodded, turned to Xiao Yunhuan and said, "I'll go first."

Xiao Yunhuan slightly bowed his knees and saluted Qin Yurou to leave.

Qin Yurou left with Chang Yuan.

Xiao Yunhuan got up and watched Qin Yurou's figure disappear into her eyes. Although she walked dignifiedly, she still made people feel that she was fleeing in despair.

Seeing that the queen and Chang Yuan had both left, the palace lady quickly brought a wooden tray with a peacock fan on it.Xiao Yunhuan glanced at it, took it over, touched the handle of the fan carefully with his hand, and looked at each peacock feather on the fan quietly. The depths of his dark eyes jumped slightly, and then he returned to calm.

In front of the Yude Hall, Xiao Yu, the fourth king of the Jokhang Dynasty, was sitting in front of the hall, looking straight ahead, a little absent-minded, while Qin Yurou was sitting in the queen's position on the left, seemingly indifferent, but his eyes seemed to be absent Looking at Xiao Yu, the hands in the sleeves were tangled together due to nervousness.

Sishi, a red figure slowly came out from the side, and slowly came to the avenue directly in front of the Yude Hall, she was fixed there, the peacock fan in her hand blocked her appearance, but couldn't block her appearance. She was dressed in bright red, and the red was as hot as fire, burning into everyone's eyes, including Xiao Yu's.

Xiao Yu's dull eyes suddenly jumped, and then he calmed down, straightened his posture unconsciously, stroked his sleeves, then quietly looked at the peacock fan in Xiao Yunhuan's hand, and watched her take a step forward. Another step slowly towards himself.

Qin Yurou's mixed hands finally stopped at the moment Xiao Yu regained consciousness. She looked slightly sideways at Xiao Yu, her eyes gradually dimmed, and followed his gaze to her. She was so beautiful, even if she didn't Seeing her face, you can also feel the different breath, which attracts everyone's eyes and makes people reluctant to move away.

Under everyone's gaze, Xiao Yunhuan stopped in front of the steps.

The ceremony official shouted loudly: "Salute!"

Xiao Yun paused for a moment, then slightly bent her knees, and gave Wan Fuli to Xiao Yu.Before Princess Jokhang got married, she had to kowtow to the emperor. Since Xiao Yu was Xiao Yunhuan's elder brother, she proposed to give Wanfuli, and Xiao Yu agreed without saying anything.

After a series of cumbersome farewell rites, with the words of the ceremonial officer, "Li Cheng".Xiao Yunhuan got up slowly, turned around without looking back, and walked towards the carriage that had been waiting for a long time at the gate of the palace, like a gust of wind, as if to take away traces of herself, without a trace of nostalgia.

Qin Yurou looked at Xiao Yunhuan's leaving back, watched her get into the carriage, and did not relax her hands in her sleeves until the wedding procession disappeared at the gate of the palace, and her eyes finally became clear. At this moment, she waited How many days and nights, she couldn't remember clearly, but she knew clearly that this woman finally left the Jokhang Palace, and she finally didn't see each other again.

"Your Majesty," Qin Yurou was in an inexplicably good mood, stood up and saluted Xiao Yu slightly, raised his eyes to look at him, and said softly, "Although it's just spring, it's better not to blow the wind here, be careful Injured the dragon body."

Xiao Yu waved his hand at Qin Yurou indifferently, and said, "Queen, go back to the palace first, the day is just right, I will sit down later."

"Wei." Qin Yurou's eyes dimmed for a moment, Shi Li turned and left.

After a long time, a guard came to Xiao Yu's side and whispered a few words in his ear.Xiao Yu slowly closed his eyes, raised his head slightly, took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly, he opened his eyes, stood up slowly, looked at the palace gate, with a hint of sternness in his eyes, vaguely There was still a trace of worry in the room, then turned and left.

The dense woods are silent, oily green trees are lined up on both sides of the official road, and the sound of orderly footsteps can be heard from a distance.Not long after the sending team left the city gate, the team sent by Xuan Ce Army to welcome the relatives took over the guardianship.Surround Xiao Yunhuan's carriage and wrap it in the center. Their mission this time is to bring the eldest princess to Beicheng safely.The seemingly simple task is full of anxiety and tension, and no one dares to slack off.

Xiao Yunhuan was sitting in the carriage, and now she was far away from the imperial city. They also traveled for seven days, and the road was calm, which was not a good omen for her. The sound of the son's hooves and the footsteps of the surrounding palace guards seemed so strange.For some reason, today's itinerary was very slow. After walking for a day, I still haven't walked out of the woods. The sunset at dusk is looming among the tall trees in the forest, which makes people feel a little depressing.

"Elder Princess," a man who looked like a general came to Xiao Yunhuan's carriage on horseback. If you look carefully, you will find that this person is the spectator at the restaurant that day. I can only wrong the eldest princess to sleep here, and I will send more people to protect you in the end, please rest assured."

"Thank you, General Chen, I'm sorry."

Chen Yi clasped his fists at Xiao Yunhuan and saluted, then looked up at the front and rear of the troops, and shouted loudly: "The troops stop! Rest here today, and leave tomorrow!"

The team stopped at this point, Xiao Yunhuan quietly listened to the voices outside the carriage, and waited quietly for the night to fall. She had a premonition that tonight was not destined to be peaceful.

The sun was setting and the towering trees made the sun disappear from everyone's eyes faster than usual. The moonlight slowly climbed up and hung high in the night sky. There was silence all around, except for the "crackling" sound of burning firewood. No other sound could be heard, and a penetrating silence enveloped the earth.

Chen Yi was sitting behind the fire next to Xiao Yunhuan's carriage, holding a long sword tightly in his hand, and his eyes were always observing the movements around him. The forest made him feel very uneasy.

"The general has worked hard, come and drink some water, you are tired after guarding the eldest princess for so long."

Chen Yi raised his head and stared at the maid who came over, frowning slightly: "Thank you, I will have it myself."

The maid did not intend to give up, she continued to say with a smile: "Don't be nervous, general, then I will bring water to the eldest princess, she is thirsty after so long."

Chen Yi was slightly taken aback, hesitant, but he heard Xiao Yunhuan say indifferently in the carriage: "I am not thirsty, go and find my personal maid, Yan'er."

The palace maid lowered her head, a hint of sternness flashed in her eyes, she answered "Wei", but she was still reluctant to leave.

Seeing that the maid didn't intend to leave at all, Chen Yi felt that there was something wrong, and was about to scold her, but suddenly heard wails one after another, followed by a commotion, and in an instant, screams and the sound of weapons colliding were mixed together , he was slightly taken aback, and quickly asked loudly: "What happened?"

A guard hurried over and said to Chen Yi: "General! It's bad! Many people vomited blood and died for some reason. At the same time, countless men in black came out. We are now suffering heavy casualties!"

Chen Yi frowned slightly, and suddenly realized, he turned his head to look at the maid just now, and shouted loudly: "You are here to poison!"

The palace lady suddenly pulled out a dagger from her bosom and stabbed at Chen Yi. Chen Yi was caught off guard and pushed her away with a palm, quickly drew out the sword in her hand and stabbed the palace lady to death.

"General Chen, what happened?" Xiao Yunhuan didn't miss the voice outside, she had been paying attention, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, so she hurriedly asked.

"Princess, we are ambushing among us. They are among our people and poisoning us," Chen Yi paused, and suddenly felt the pain in the wound was too severe. Looking down, he found that the wound had already turned purple-black, and he understood the dagger. There is poison, he raised his head and said to Xiao Yunhuan, "Don't worry, eldest princess, I will definitely protect you well in the end."

Xiao Yunhuan was silent for a moment, then suddenly lifted the curtain of the car and came out, her wedding dress was more vividly set off by the firelight.Chen Yi stared blankly at Xiao Yunhuan. This was the first time he saw her real face. It was indeed as the people in Beijing said, she was so beautiful that he forgot to retract his eyes for a while. Realizing that he was rude, he quickly lowered his head: "Please return to the carriage, the eldest princess, this place will be dealt with in the end."

Xiao Yunhuan watched the flames dance around, the crowd surged, the palace people ran and screamed, and the men in black shuttled through the crowd like ghosts, and blood gushed out everywhere they went, which was more dazzling than the jumping flames. They were step by step Get close to Xiao Yunhuan.She understood that their target was herself, and staying here would only cause more soldiers to die, and they would fight desperately to protect her.

"General Chen," Xiao Yunhuan got off the carriage and looked at Chen Yi, "They are coming towards me. I know that you can't resist them. Please take all the soldiers back and tell Yunzhu to hold your breath."

Chen Yi was taken aback for a moment, he understood Xiao Yunhuan's meaning, but he couldn't do this: "Please forgive me for being helpless, the last general's task is to protect the eldest princess!"

Xiao Yunhuan understood what Chen Yi meant, and she also knew that it would be useless to talk too much. She took off the phoenix crown on her head, grabbed the sword in the hands of the guards on the side, cut off the noose on the carriage, climbed on the horse, and turned her head to face the fighting black The man in clothes shouted loudly: "Aren't you looking for me, right? I'm here!" After finishing speaking, he kicked the horse under him in the stomach. The horse roared, and took her to the deep forest without looking back run everywhere.When the man in black heard Xiao Yunhuan's voice, he didn't want to fight, and his attacks inevitably became more ruthless.

This scene caught Chen Yi by surprise, and he froze in place, and he also understood Xiao Yunhuan's determination in an instant, and he also understood why Han Yunzhu would never forget this princess. He looked at the black clothes who were getting closer He turned his head to the lieutenant beside him and said, "I have passed on the general's order. This general has been poisoned deeply, and there is no way to recover from it. You must save your strength and pass on what the eldest princess said to Han." Little general, 'hold your breath'."

The deputy general was stunned for a moment, with a look of grief and indignation on his face, he silently lowered his head, and replied heavily: "Wei!" Then he turned and left.

Holding the long sword in his hand, Chen Yi sat on his steed, and suddenly said loudly to the crowd: "You have to stop it, this general will go to protect the eldest princess and escort her to go first!" After speaking, he turned towards Xiao Yunhuan's leaving direction chase after.

The soldiers also got the order from the lieutenant general, and in the end they all pretended to fail to allow the man in black to break out. After a symbolic chase for a while, they stopped. They quietly watched the direction in which the man in black disappeared. With mourning, they all understood that they would never see that hearty Captain Chen again.

Xiao Yunhuan turned around and found that Chen Yi was chasing him, he was slightly taken aback, and said, "General, don't come here to persuade me again."

"Princess, the last general has been poisoned and is powerless to recover, so let the last general perform his last duty."

Only then did Xiao Yunhuan see the injury on Chen Yi's waist, he hesitated for a moment, then his eyes became very firm, and he looked straight ahead.

Under the moonlight, one front and one back, one red and one gold, shuttled non-stop through the woods.

The poison on the assassin's dagger had spread all over Chen Yi's body over time. He finally couldn't hold on anymore and fell off the horse. He covered the wound with his hand, struggled to get up, supported himself firmly with the sword, and opened his mouth. panting.Xiao Yunhuan hastily reined in his horse and stopped, dismounted to check on Chen Yi's injuries.

Chen Yi waved his hand, and said to Xiao Yunhuan: "Princess, go, the general can only escort you here, and the rest will be resisted by you, you go!"

Xiao Yunhuan tightly grasped Chen Yi's arm, looked deeply at Chen Yi, and then slowly let go after a long time, turned around and got on the horse, and continued to run forward without looking back.

Chen Yi understood her shame in her eyes. He smiled, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, held the long sword in his hand, and let himself stand up slowly. His whole life was for the Xuan Ce Army To fight, and to protect Xiao Yunhuan is to protect Little General Han. He feels that he has no regrets in dying, but he can't go back to see the general for the last time, and he can't see the old mother who always waits at the gate of the city to deliver buns to him.Chen Yi stood still, staring at the man in black who was approaching with piercing eyes, and suddenly raised his sword and shouted: "You wait for Xiaoxiao, step over the general's body first!"

A trace of mourning flashed in Xiao Yunhuan's eyes as she was running, but she did not stop running, despite the sound of weapons colliding in her ears, and was finally covered by the sound of insects and wind around her, she forced herself not to look back , don't stop, she can't live up to the time Chen Yi bought for herself, and her eyes have become more determined.

Three thousand blue silks were scattered behind her, and her wedding dress had already been torn by branches, but her eyes were still calm, without a single pause, suddenly Xiao Yunhuan noticed a rustling sound not far behind her, and she didn't Instead of looking back, she continued to run, knowing that they were catching up.The man in black followed like a cat catching a mouse. They were waiting, spitting out a bright red letter like a black snake, walking calmly in the dense forest, ready to eat Xiao Yunhuan alive at any time.

Passing through the towering woods, there was a roadless cliff in front of her. Xiao Yunhuan finally reined in her horse and stopped. She dismounted and walked to the edge of the cliff. When she lowered her head, she saw the bottomless cliff. clothes people.

The men in black stopped, glanced at each other, pointed the gun at Xiao Yunhuan, and walked in slowly step by step, but the arrow of the gun was already full of venom, shining the light of death under the moonlight.Xiao Yunhuan looked at the man in black, and suddenly there was a smile on the corner of her mouth. It was so beautiful, calm, and even relieved. She turned her head and touched the head of the horse that was running with her. It was damaged, but the moonlight shining from the night sky covered her body, as if she had put on an incomparable white gauze dress, combined with her inherent nobility, it was fascinating.They are specially trained dead soldiers, without emotion, without thought, just a killing machine. At this moment, they were actually moved, but they couldn't disobey the order, and in the end they couldn't bear to close their eyes and pulled the trigger.

Xiao Yunhuan slowly closed her eyes without any fear. The red figure leaned back slightly, like a butterfly, fell gracefully into the cliff, and disappeared into the mist bit by bit...
