Demon folding

Chapter 1: Leaving the Palace

The author has something to say: an article that has gone through precipitation, I hope to have a good start, and an end with obedience and heart.

It was night, and the long-drought summer rain finally poured down amidst the muffled thunder for a long time, hitting the corner of the eaves and splashing into the pavilion, cooling my forearm holding the brief book a little.Unstoppable rain came in obliquely, the lamp trembled, I hurriedly put down the tree, and covered the window to block the wind, even blocking the impetuous pouring of the heavy rain.

A little bit of cleanliness permeated the room, the inner room was hot again due to the dry rain, and the damp heat surged up from the bottom of the mat, sticking heavily to the human skin, it was really refreshing and soothing for a moment.

I put down the brief book in a dull mood, leaned against the table under the window, tilted my head with my arm resting on my chin, and listened to the sound of the rain making it shattered and clean.

I have read Sir's book for five years in Mengcheng Temple, but I still can't understand it.

His book is very much like him, who avoids falsehood and deceit, and acts according to the way of heaven. He should be a happy and carefree person regardless of himself, but he only teaches me to protect my whole body with all my heart and mind in the book.

Just because I live in anxiety.

Anyone who lives like me will always feel uneasy.

In the 25th year of King Kang of the Song Dynasty, Prince Kang traveled to Xiapi to prepare for the construction of Qinglingtai Palace. Seeing the beauty of Han Ping's wife He Zhenfu, he imprisoned Han Ping and seized her.On the fourth day of the seventh month of the following year, the He family gave birth to a daughter named Xia.

Han Ping secretly sent a letter to He Shi on the Qiqiao Festival, and soon committed suicide.

Wang Dexin, Xin said, "It has been raining for a long time, and the river is deep and the water is deep. I see my heart every day."

Ask relatives, no one can explain.

There is Su He's words: "The rain does not stop for a long time, which means that the heart is full of worries; the river is deep and the water is deep, which means that two people cannot communicate for a long time; seeing my heart every day, it means that the heart has determined the ambition of death."

Wang Nian is a young girl and bears it.

Later, the He family invited King Kang to visit the Qingling Terrace, fell to the Qingling Terrace, pulled his clothes, the clothes were torn, and He died.

Wang Tan believed in what Su He said.

Gathering He's body, his clothes were attached with words, saying, "The king would like me to live, and I would like to die. The bones will belong to my husband, and they will be buried together for a long time."

Wang Nu ordered the people in the village to bury the two of them, and the two tombs looked at each other from afar, saying, "You two love each other, if you make the tombs together, you will never be alone."

Soon, catalpa trees grew in each of the tombs, which were as thick as ten days, with curved branches, close to each other, and intertwined roots.The people of the country mourned for it, named the tree Acacia, and said that the mandarin ducks were Han Ping and his wife.

Wang Ai, distracted and drunk, lived in Xiapi to supervise the construction of Qingling for three years, and returned to Shangqiu. Since then, he has been far away from ministers.

Ten years ago when he returned to Shangqiu, he left me to live alone in Qinglingtai Li Palace as Princess Xia.

Although I deserve a noble name, I live like a servant.

No, not as good as others.

The palace people called me princess to my face, but whispered behind my back, wishing me to die early like my mother.

Die early, liberate them early.

It turned out that they were still young, and they still had the opportunity to serve their father in Shangqiu, but now they are dragging me down in the Qingling Terrace, where the world should not be, and I don't know when and when they will see their father again, and they will have a bright day again.

I have never been loved by my father, I have never seen my mother take care of me, I am disgusted by others, I dare not speak loudly, I cannot laugh when I speak, I live like an ant in the dust, as if someone can easily be crushed to death by lifting a foot.

I don't know if it's because of my nature, or because no one cares about me, growing up so alone makes me live casually and indifferently.If people don't like me, I don't like to treat them, and if people hate me, I don't dislike me either.

Left and right are just in this magnificent palace, at night, when the lights are turned off, no one sees the other, even if they resent it, they can't do what they hate to face each other, so what does love and dislike have to do with each other.

I have never complained, I only have a thought, that if one day I can get out of Qingling Terrace, I will meet the pair of mandarin ducks.

When I was eight years old, I sneaked out of the palace, searched under the acacia tree for several times, sat down under the tree in disappointment, unwilling to reconcile, and raised my head and opened my eyes. Falling into depression again, I don't know how to put down the thoughts that have been delusional for many years.

I don't understand.

Is it because the mottled leaves through the heavy leaves are so dazzling that I can't see clearly, or is it because my mother only read Han Ping in her heart until she died, hating my father and king at the same time, this has never happened before. The thought of seeing me at first sight?

Tears slipped down abruptly, burning the corners of people's eyes with salty astringency.

"The seven orifices are fed by seeing, hearing, and breathing. Today you dig them out with your tears, or you will die in chaos in six days."

I still remember the first language my husband spoke clearly.

He came like tears, and he didn't know where and why he came from.

In the backlight, he was dressed in sackcloth and rough shoes, his eyebrows were dirty, and his eyes were also cloudy with disheveled buns.

The thin clothes were opened at will, and the thin breastbone was sunken in, and the hemp rope on the waist fell loosely to the crotch, and there was no trace of laziness.The rough shoes have holes, and the toes are dirty, as if they have walked a lot of roads, stepping on the dusty mottled staggered way, squatting down in front of me, squinting to avoid the mottled, approaching A bony and indistinct face.

"Dead?"

Grasping the death word tightly, I wiped the corners of my eyes with joy instead of surprise, looked at him seriously and asked, "Those people said they are dead, if I die too, will I be able to see them?"

"When you are born, you see something, and when you see what you see, you see what you see. When you die, you see everything.

He laughed and said something I didn't understand.

Mottled on the corners of his indifferent lips, like a mockery, made my joy dissipate.

When he was puzzled, he talked to himself leisurely.

"I once dreamed that I was like a butterfly, flying lightly, fluttering, very comfortable and natural. When I woke up, I couldn't understand why I still had these hands, wings, and where did I go?"

Shaking his head, he seemed to be thinking about it, and murmured again, "Am I Zixiu, or a butterfly? Am I a butterfly, or Zixiu?"

I think he's crazy.

The construction workers of Qingling Terrace went crazy, just like him now.

I was terrified and didn't want to get entangled with him, so when I stood up, I was suddenly grabbed by him.

Looking back, it turned out that he was the one who pulled my lapel. The fine brocade embroidered in Song Dynasty was pulled by his dirty fingers, which was so clean that it dazzled the eye.

"What do you want to see?" He asked, his approaching eyes were cloudy and colorless.

I couldn't see the reflection in his eyes, so I pulled out the skirt of my clothes in fear and ran towards Li Gong in a panic.

I stumbled into the palace wall, and from a distance, the faces of those palace people became ugly. I was frightened and anxious, and ran over madly regardless.

As expected, the greetings from the bright side all used cleverness secretly, pushing and shoving me indiscriminately.I was panting, still terrified in my heart, how could I care about the pain caused by these small movements.

While taking a bath in the dormitory, the skin was blue and purple, and my heart trembled along with the pain.It wasn't because of the pain I was used to on my skin, but because I felt that the lunatic had been following me, pulling the bright skirt of my clothes and asking questions repeatedly.

"What do you want to see, what do you want to see..."

I had lingering fears, my ears were buzzing, I couldn't escape the haunting turbidity with my eyes closed, I wiped my body indiscriminately, climbed out of the tub and ran to the bed, and just when I hit the bed, I made an out-of-tuned trembling sound. The palace people put out the lights.

I buried my head in the depths of the quilt, listening to the rapid breathing in my ears, I felt that the darkness I was used to could not bring me the slightest peace of mind at this moment, and I covered my ears in extreme disappointment, and I didn't want to hear those aunts who were in charge punish me vigorously. The tearing and whipping and the cries of the court ladies begging for mercy.

I don't know when I fell asleep, but it was a night without dreams. I woke up from my many years of night dreams, and it was a good thing to be able to open my eyes until dawn.Fortunately, he turned his eyes, feeling in a good mood.

After stretching my waist, a maid came forward to serve me, she was so cautious that I was afraid of me.She was so unfamiliar that I glanced at the bedroom, and suddenly felt that all the maids were unfamiliar.

The good mood that hadn't warmed up suddenly disappeared.

The aunt in charge has always been aware of the secret methods of the maids, but she never speaks out, and only dealt with them ruthlessly when she caught their mistakes.

Thinking about my leaving the palace yesterday, it became my aunt's reason for attacking me. She deliberately slapped me hard in front of me. On the surface, it was to warn the palace maids, but secretly, it was nothing more than a reminder to me.

When I was young, I felt pity for those court ladies, and I sincerely begged for forgiveness for them, but after they ended up in vain, even my aunt in charge no longer got close to me openly.

From this, I knew that I should not beg for mercy, the more I begged for mercy, the more people would feel that I cared about it, and they would take advantage of me because of it.

Since then, I have never paid attention to their feelings, and kept silent when I bullied them. After all, it is useless for me to say or not, to reason or to ignore, and maybe it will make them more If you receive one or two heavy responsibilities, you will blame me even more.

Why should I be hated.

As for how the aunt in charge treats them, that is the result they should bear, only this time, it was really because of my fault that they suffered, the aunt in charge deliberately reminded me that I dare not be presumptuous anymore.

With such a situation of killing two birds with one stone, I can't help but wonder if she let me out on purpose, after all, she is the person I fear and admire the most in Li Palace, her scheming is the most terrifying thing I have ever seen.

Sometimes when I think about it, some of my little thoughts can be too clear and cautious, maybe I learned it from her calculation and handling of things, but I don't use it much.

Just as I got up sullenly, a maid reported that someone had come to the front hall, saying that she wanted to see me no matter what.

I had doubts in my heart, and was overwhelmed by a certain thought in an instant. Before I had time to think about it, I took off half of my shoes and ran away.

The newly ignorant little palace lady cursed in a low voice, picked up my coat and chased after me, her thoughts of pity for her flashed past, and she felt that she was running so fast, as if she was going to fly.

When approaching the main hall, there are singing voices coming from it, the man's voice is clear and clear.

I had never heard of it, so I was curious and went to the side of the temple door and carefully listened to it.

"I'm determined to fly and grab the elm, but the time will not come and I will just control the ground. Xi said it is [-] miles to the south..."

After listening for a few ears, Qingyue clearly only chanted this sentence repeatedly, frowned, thinking to himself that the teacher who taught me in Li Palace is not bad, and I am not stupid, so why can't I understand the meaning of the song?

The palace lady put on my clothes, thickened and combed them casually for a few times, and she stood aside helplessly, looking at impatient eyes from time to time.

I pulled the hook and rolled up my belt and was furious. I thought it was my father who sent someone to pick me up. Unexpectedly, this inexplicable song lingered in the hall, and my eagerness completely cooled down to anger. I just felt that it ruined all my joyful expectations, not only noisy , which is even more annoying.

Seeing that I was hesitant in not advancing or retreating, the court lady squinted her eyes, impatiently urging, and I had some scruples about not wanting to cause trouble, so I had to step in lazily and reluctantly with my eyelids closed.

The mats in the huge hall are clean, and the two cases are neatly arranged.

The hall is decorated with gorgeous bronze and black bird carvings on the wall, and the mighty and frightening wings are wide open, as if fierce and ferocious, as if ready to pounce at any time. The dark picture made me a little slow to react, and I fell into a certain situation stiffly. In a nightmare.

In the dream, the twilight king in black robes was leaning on the throne, staring at me coldly and disgustedly.

Like every night of nightmares, I trembled and shook my head very quickly, wanting to wake up from the dream, and in a blink of an eye, I ran into a lazy man in coarse linen leaning behind a few seats on the left side of the hall, He was shaking his head and singing with his eyes closed.

It's the madman!

I was startled, turned around and wanted to run, but stopped immediately.

Turning my eyes suspiciously, I found that he was a little different from yesterday, curious like a cat scratching, and the tickle made me look up.

He is much tidier today, he looks like a scribe, with his brow trimmed, his thin cheeks are very pale and blue.The messy hair was combed in a bun that was not considered formal, and the hairband on the topknot was not tightly tied, and a few strands of fine hair sneaked out, which added a bit of unruly and free and easy meaning to him.

The clothes are still dilapidated, different from yesterday's pickling, they are already washed and neatly dressed, and the puddings on the shoe uppers are well cut, as if flowers were growing on the feet, not to mention the elegance of fine brocade patterns.

At this moment, his left leg is stretched out on the ground, his right leg is half bent, and the tiptoes of his toes are still stepping to the rhythm of finger bones and knees with the tune of the song. He really looks very comfortable and happy.

"How can you be so happy?"

Surprised in my uncertain heart, I almost blurted out the question, but I immediately pressed my lips in a hoarse voice and carefully suppressed it, looking at it out of the corner of my eye and feeling uneasy.

Fortunately, he didn't notice it, and I was glad that I didn't bother him. I looked at him a few times out of curiosity, and felt that even though he changed into clean clothes and dressed up, he was still as crazy as before. Boring, I plan to go out after a while.

Just calm down, but think more.

Li Palace was originally the palace of the father, although it is not as lively as Shangqiu, it is still the courtyard of the royal family, he is not allowed to come and go at will, what kind of person is he, he can enter the palace of the king at will and sing alone without restraint?

Most of the common people are grass shoes, and he wears cloth shoes, which is not an ordinary status, and his clothes are repaired quickly and properly. There must be a virtuous wife who takes care of him at home.

He is a lunatic, who will marry him?

Out of curiosity, I lingered for a while, I couldn't figure it out for a while, and seeing that he really didn't want to stop, I simply walked up to him and hummed softly, intending to harass him.

His dangling head stopped, his eyes slightly opened, as if he had opened the door of a secret storehouse hidden somewhere, the strange brilliance covered the turbidity, how could he look like a lunatic when he was as clear as amber?

Seeing me, he rolled his lips and smiled, looking over from the corners of his eyes.

Looking at each other, I feel that his eyes are clearly like ordinary people, but I don't know why I saw a strange scene?

When I realized that it was wrong eye and insensitivity, my confused forehead seemed to be hit by lightning, which not only shattered all the incomprehensible visions, but also made me shout in my heart that he may not be a lunatic, but he must be a liar!

"You're so rude."

Although I am not used to bullying him by showing my identity, but at this time I am full of anger because of his deception, and I just want to find an opportunity to bully him and get back some points.

Yesterday he didn't know my identity, and I sneaked out again, without a guard around, I was so frightened by him that I had no choice but to turn around and run, even losing the princess's self-styled etiquette, I was extremely embarrassed.

Now he not only ruined my joyful expectation, but he is so leisurely and honest, how can he not be angry or annoyed when he is together in several places?

I stared at him angrily, and secretly calculated angrily, "Every country in the world respects the monarch. Today is in the Li Palace, and the whole Xiapi knows that I am Princess Xia. If you are not polite, you are naturally rude. You are rude to the royal family." Or, if you pursue it regardless of whether it is minor or serious, you will always be beaten by someone, and you will finally be able to vent my suffocation."

"The emperor of the South Sea is Shu, the emperor of the North Sea is Hu, and the emperor of the center is Hun Dun. Shu and Hu seek to repay the virtue of Hun Chao, saying: 'Everyone has seven orifices to see, hear, eat and breathe. This is unique, try to dig it out, "Dug one orifice every day, seven days and die in Chaos. You looked at it with tears yesterday, and today you dig it with anger. After two days, you still don't meet with Chaos. So, if you are not the emperor of Chaos, how can Zixiu Lizhi?"

He laughed, shaking his head as if shaking out all the cloudy eyes from yesterday, and people followed suit in a vague and arrogant way, making people feel that although the world is big, there is no one worthy of his salute.

Why did you say crazy things again?Didn't even look down on the royal clan?

I've never been angry, even when faced with Li Gong who is a villain, I never got angry or complained, but today I ran into such a lunatic and liar, just a few words made me unable to suppress my emotions easily.

My heart is inherently dissatisfied, and I am confused by his stern words, I think about it for a while, and finally give up incomprehensibly.

"Crazy!" Lightly reprimanded angrily, I couldn't refute his crazy words, so I turned around and fled.

"The lunatic wants to take you out of this ghost place, are you willing to go with the lunatic?"

I froze, and my mood was overwhelmed by his light words.

I thought it was my father who sent someone to pick me up, but it turned out to be an inexplicable lunatic who was provoked by my leaving the palace for no reason.This lunatic not only pretended to be crazy, but also uttered nonsense what I was most looking forward to.

It must be fake, come to lie to me!

Turning around angrily, bumping into his clear eyebrows, I was extremely shocked that his emotions changed so naturally, and then I felt ridiculous, pointing at him and shouting, "You madman not only despises the royal family, but also speaks out." Gossiping and rampant, really don't want to die!"

He got up leisurely disapprovingly, as if he realized that I was not as tall as him, he tilted his figure with his robes lifted, looked at me with almost flat eyebrows, and opened his mouth and said, "I will rise up and fly, grab the elm, and I will not come in time." And it’s just about controlling the land, now that the time has come, ninety thousand miles begin with a single step, what can you do to the south?”

As he spoke, he stretched out his clean left hand and spread it out naturally, calmly showing that I would definitely follow him.

Why do you have to act like a charity!

Amidst the lingering singing, I subconsciously thought that he intended to embarrass me, so I bit my lips and stared at him with hatred, trying to erase his pity for me with my self-restraint and pride!

Such an confrontation, but gradually there are many blanks and confusions in my mind. I feel in a trance that the cloudscape and blue sky in the singing have fallen, and people are drifting away with his singing of flying words and dreams. The wind actually has some excitement and madness to walk against the wind.

Once upon a time, my father drove out of the palace, saying that he was going out to hunt in the city, but I knew in my heart that he was really going to leave.

I still hoped to reach out to him by chance, but what I was greeted was his indifferent and contemptuous smile. The disgust in his eyes was almost still in front of my eyes, which made me wake up from my dream every night.

It made me feel that everyone hates me.

Stare blankly at him.

He is a lunatic and a liar, so pitiful to me, how can I believe that he is really taking me away, instead of making a mockery from the bottom of his heart!

I am like a flying kite floating up and down. I don’t know who is holding one end of the spool. I don’t want to let go of it, which makes people feel anxious. I fall into the clear and determined eyes in a panic, and it overflows when I can’t push it. Many soft streams, like streams drawn from the mountains by Li Gong, reflect my extremely lonely shadow.

Suddenly remembered that there was no dream last night.

I landed on the ground and connected to the invisible thread in the white palm.

I don't know when I stepped forward and grabbed it naturally. The dry and warm real touch feels like the spool has been completely retracted. The master who held the thread carefully held me on his heart, turned around and led me away.

The person in front of him is like a fairy, who doesn't care about the complexity and burden of the world, and floats like the wind.This wind swept me, took away my heart, and also took away my loneliness for many years.

The warm wind supported the person, like entering the clouds, I somehow thought, whether it is good to follow him to a distant place, disconnected, or hung up and entangled with tall trees, it is better than living in the cold palace, with no soul or heart and no one to care for .

I pursed my lips, and I thought about it in my heart, and I rushed lightly, walking with him.Stepping out of the main hall silently all the way until leaving the palace, no one stepped forward to stop him.

After stepping out of the palace wall, the heart that was determined to return suddenly jumped out loud.

I subconsciously look back.

It took five years to complete the Qingling Terrace, which is more than half of its outline. It is far more majestic and magnificent than the Li Palace. From a distance, the Li Palace is hidden behind the Qingling Terrace, just like a shadow in its corner.

In the past, along the outline of the shadow of the Li Palace, light smoke and dense fog filled the air, covering half hazy shadows and half majestic Qingling Terrace. wake up.

I woke up, no matter what, I thought it was free, but I was still uneasy after all, I don't know if I detested it, or it detested me after all.

This uneasiness persisted for years, occupying my five years of growing up in Mengcheng Temple.

I always thought that my father would send someone to find me.

Up to now, time has passed like the wind, and Qingling Terrace has been built for ten years. In ten years, I have grown from three years old to thirteen years old. From Li Palace to Mengcheng Temple, I have never seen my birth mother, and I have parted from him early. , Although I miss him all the time, I am afraid that he has forgotten me long ago, but he has never sent anyone to look for me.

My husband said that if you were born in an emperor's family, you will be sad if you are unlucky.

You are the noble and special among thousands of people, and the king is nothing more than a chess piece that can be manipulated vertically and horizontally since birth.

It's a pity that I can't even count as a chess piece.

The heat and humidity in the room made me irritable, so I got up and pushed the door, and stood on the porch with my shoes, trying to catch my breath from the memories.

The lights in the porch faltered in the wind, rain and lightning, and the eaves of the rain hit the face in shock, and it was so sticky that people couldn't get rid of it easily.

I took a deep breath, only to see that the front hall not far away was still lit.

It's already midnight, isn't Mr. still asleep?

In doubt, I walked around the corridor to the front hall.
