Who knows, in the blink of an eye, a year has passed.

In the past year, Xiao Sheng didn't find any valuable information, and the princess didn't rush or hurry, as if he had forgotten about it.But Xiao Sheng never gave up. Every now and then, he would report to the princess, and he would report as usual without any clues. In the name of fulfilling the errand, he reminded the princess that there was still such a person. Release Miss Su and come back.

What made him secretly rejoice was that even if there was no progress in reporting every time.The princess was not bothered, not upset, just listened quietly.

In the past year, An Wuying and General An went down to protect the human world several times, went out on official business in Xianjun County, participated in the activities of Xianzhou State Mansion, and occasionally played chess with Yang Xiao... She became more calm, except for routine work every day , she was mostly sleeping, she seemed to fall in love with sleeping, and often slept for half a day, her complexion became more white and dazzling.

She hides in her boudoir day by day when she has nothing to do, but like her mother Bai Tan, there are more and more legends about her in the fairyland.

But she also has a little hobby, often ordering people to collect strange songs that are rarely heard in the folk villages, and when they are collected, they order singers and dancers to come to her to watch.She often listened and watched, frowning more and more tightly, and finally gave up expressionlessly.

The king of the county thought that his daughter fell in love with music, so he recruited famous composers, musicians, and performers from the whole county and even the entire fairyland, and recruited all those who had anything to do with music. Creation, the result is not very satisfactory.

In the sunny garden, the maids often see the princess sitting alone in the ancient pavilion, leaning on the pillars, ecstatically watching the clouds.

The maids laughed and whispered:

"The Princess seems to be waiting for something."

"Wait for Mr. Ruyi."

"Wrong, the princess has become a music fanatic, waiting for her weird song!"

……

On this day, An Wuying came to the palace of the king of the county to pay her respects. Before she could step in, she heard the sound of the king's fury from inside.

An Wuying bent down to pick it up, stepped forward and said, "Father, why are you so angry?"

The king of the county glanced at his daughter, calmed down a little, and said in a deep voice: "The Liu family in Yunding City conspired to rebel, lawless! I have ordered people to punish their nine families!"

Hearing this, An Wuying put down the booklets in her hand, flipped through one of them, and said softly: "Since the traitor has been punished, father and king don't need to be angry anymore, your body is important."

The county king leaned back with his huge body, and heaved a long sigh of relief.

The hidden rebel forces in Anling County are becoming more and more prosperous. Although they are far from enough to make a big impact, they are all sporadic and small troubles, but if one is caught, it will always make Anling Wangdian furious.

Two days later, Xiaosheng reported that a family named Su was secretly looking for his missing daughter.This family is quite well-known in Yunding City, and is a wealthy businessman with a well-off family.

At that time, An Wuying was practicing calligraphy in Lan's study, and as soon as Xiao Sheng stepped into the study, he saw her sleeping soundly in front of the desk.I don't know when he will sleep again, Xiao Sheng is very impatient and wants to report the news immediately.Just when she was at a loss, An Wuying suddenly raised her head, looked at him with sleepy eyes, and woke up unexpectedly.

Xiao Sheng hurried forward: "Report to the princess, a family named Su in Yunding City has been secretly looking for their missing daughter for the past two days. I wonder if Miss Su is the person they are looking for?"

An Wuying touched her stiff neck and said, "Why are you looking for it in secret?"

Xiao Sheng said: "I don't know, I'm afraid there may be something wrong here. The Su family is looking for people, but the secrecy is very important. Even the daughter of the Su family doesn't know what the daughter of the Su family looks like. What does the princess mean?"

An Wuying thought for a while, the Su family wanted to find their missing daughter, so they would report to the authorities, if not, no matter what the odds were, if it had nothing to do with the person she was looking for, she would not meddle in other's business, she stood up, and quickly unfolded A piece of paper, picked up the brush again, thought for a moment, and waved it twice.

After finishing the painting, she picked up Su Yanyin's portrait and said, "Take this painting and find out if it's her."

After receiving the painting, Xiao Sheng's expression froze, this is Miss Su, she doesn't distinguish between male and female at all, she can barely tell it's a person.

Xiao Sheng said cautiously: "...Princess, maybe you haven't seen each other for a long time, worrying about business, and forgot Miss Su's appearance, this... I can't tell it's her. If the princess doesn't mind, let me try to draw it. ?”

An Wuying held the painting with both hands, her eyes darkened, she looked at it for a while and said: "I know what she looks like, and my memory is not that bad." After looking at it, she felt that she was really not like her, so she casually picked up the painting Throw it: "Forget it, you can draw."

Xiao Sheng quickly drew a picture and brought it up to the princess for review.

An Wuying's eyebrows lit up, and the corner of her mouth curled into a shallow smile: "Yes."

At this moment, one year in the sky and one year in the world, time is like the rain that falls on all things in the world, and it will not flow faster or slower because of who is being showered.

Su Yanyin has been making a tree in the world for a year.

When she was in junior high school, she wrote an article called "If I Were a Tree". Because of her sincere feelings and rich imagination, this article was read by the teacher as a model essay in front of the whole class on the podium.There is a sentence in the article, which reads: "If I were a tree, then I must be the tree that longs for the rain most in the world, absorbing all the tears in the world, and turning it into a green leaf that shades people from the wind."

Now, Su Yanyin really made a tree, but she wants to tear up that article into pieces, not to mention tears, she has had enough of urine, slop, and phlegm.After so much experience, the leaves are still bald.

Being a tree is really hard work, An Wuying's heart is really cold.

But Su Yanyin knew that the princess was right to punish her, and she was wrong if she was wrong. On the one hand, she was willing to be punished, regardless of the sentence, in exchange for a little peace of mind; Sure enough, he has never regarded her as a human being, and now being a tree is a real hammer. He scolds her for being heartless every day, and scolds her uncontrollably.

Perhaps, the princess's "spirit in the sky" can sense her scolding intentions on the earth, and it's not a bad thing to have a good time in a fit of anger!

Today, the sky is dark again.

Su Yanyin, a tree with a crooked neck at the crossroads in Hwaseong, just watched the day bright and dark, and then dark and bright again, letting the sun go by, unable to do anything, it was so unbearable that people's hearts were about to be crushed into a pile of dead ashes.

It's midnight now, and the night is dead.

In the distance, in the dense night fog, there was a vague figure staggering towards him. Judging by the steps, he was eagerly coming towards him.Su Yanyin cursed inwardly: Criticize people more, and come to me again?

If you are in a hurry to urinate, why bother to go so far to find a tree? According to Su Yanyin's experience in making trees, it should be a pair of drunk mandarin ducks.

When he got closer, he realized that it was just a man: a man who was devastated, his face was ashen, and his body was as thin as a white skull.

He walked to the tree, walked in a hurry, leaned on the trunk and coughed violently for a while, and after breathing, he covered a pair of dusty eyes and looked at the tree calmly.

"Big brother, why don't you sleep in the middle of the night?" Su Yanyin said, this man was different from the passers-by she had met before, she felt a little weird.

It's a pity that the man can't hear Su Yanyin's words, let alone her existence.He forced himself to straighten up, was stunned, and took out a gleaming white silk from his pocket, under the moonlight, it was ghastly pale.

"Hey... Hey, big brother, don't get too overwhelmed. There is only one life, and there are many ways to do it. Don't do stupid things!" Su Yanyin yelled anxiously, but the man still couldn't hear him.

With a bent body like a white skeleton, the man threw the white silk up with difficulty, and put it on a thick branch protruding from Su Yanyin, and fastened the hanging ring.

The man moved a bunch of stones to step on his feet again, and he tried his best, wanting to die, making Su Yanyin break out in a cold sweat.Leaning in front of the stone, he gasped for breath and burst into tears. He took out an old sachet preciously, and cried, "Madam, I'm leaving. Don't blame me. I have this strange disease of gray lung. I didn't catch it." It's over, I can't bear to drag you down, you find a good man and marry again! Woooo—"

It turned out that he was sick and wanted to die. Looking at the symptoms, gray lung?Isn't this very similar to pneumoconiosis in modern society?Pneumoconiosis is mostly a disease caused by mining workers exposed to fiber dust for a long time. The patient's breathing becomes weak, life is like drowning, and life is worse than death. No matter how hard they struggle, they will eventually die.

Su Yanyin's heart sank, and she listened carefully again.

The man wiped his tears, looked up at Bai Ling, and said unwillingly: "Blame me, thinking that the little money you earn from working is not enough for you to live a good life. I wanted to win a lot of money, buy you more fashionable clothes, and make you happy, but... ahem... but in the end, I lost and got heavily in debt."

The man's eyes lit up with hatred: "Hehe, at this time, I still want to thank that kind boss Gao, who introduced me to a new job with more money, working in the poisonous silver mine he dug secretly, and said he would do it for a year. Just pay off a debt, ahem... But, I'm useless, if I don't pay off the debt, my health will fail, ahem... a lot of people will die."

The man's face seemed to be covered with a thick layer of dead ashes, and two tears flowed down again: "...But with debts, no one dares to say anything, and Boss Gao doesn't care about us, we live and die by ourselves, yes, he said Let us live and die by ourselves, and when we die, the debt will be gone, and the pain will be gone..."

As he said that, the man followed like a demon, suddenly gained strength, stepped on the stone, and hanged himself.

Right now, the night is like the sea, and everything is silent, as if people are drowning and breathless, only a few night coughs of an old man can be heard from a house not far away.

Under the moonlight, the swaying corpses and falling black shadows looked like ghosts, and Su Yanyin couldn't bear to look at them any longer.She made up her mind and looked at the east exit of the crossroads. Boss Gao's gambling house, where the business is booming, is here.

Hwaseong is the area under the protection of Anling County, whether it is sickness or death, whether it is hanged, these life and death in the human world in twos and threes are normal phenomena, and they cannot be seen by the guardian of the human world.It can't compare to the ferocity of the ghosts in Beimen Village, and the heavenly soldiers descended to the realm.As everyone knows, the human heart is more terrifying than ghosts, and the harm to people is deeper than ghosts.

Su Yanyin quietly stared at the sachet at the foot of the corpse. The body was no longer shaking, and the sachet was still emitting wisps of fragrance.The fragrance penetrated into her sense of smell, as if it was steaming and alive.

The fragrance of flowers comes from Yingwei, and the flower language: I will wait for you to come back.

She seemed to see her wife busy preparing dinner in the kitchen and waiting for her husband to come home from work.

"Is there anyone to save them..." Su Yanyin thought.
