Legend of a Drop-dead Gorgeous Princess

Chapter 284: Trials and hardships

Concubine Xue's desperate face kept flashing before Qingyun's eyes. Is Sima Hui really lying to her? Do you really have no feelings for her? Maybe he doesn't know his heart anymore.

Qingyun remembered clearly that when the assassin rushed up, the queen was hiding behind Sima Hui, and the one standing in front of Sima Hui was Concubine Xue.

Qingyun smiled bitterly.

The sky was getting dark, there were no lights, and it was shrouded in darkness.

"Xue'er!" Qing Yun heard a surprise whisper.

Qingyun turned around.

One person put on a dark purple brocade and stood there with his hands behind. The cold wind was hunting, turning the corners of his clothes.

It is Sima Hui.

"It's you." He was surprised when he saw Qingyun.

"Who does the eldest brother think? Concubine Xue? She walked in your arms, you, you committed suicide with her..." Qing Yun didn't know why she said these words, but the words fell to her lips, and she didn't vomit.

She hadn't seen Sima Hui for many days, and hadn't seen him again after Gongbian. He has lost a lot of weight and has higher cheekbones.

"The weather is so cold and it's quiet here, why did you get here?" he asked lightly.

Qingyun said: "I want to see plum blossoms, and the guard said they are here."

Qing Yun couldn't see the joy and anger in his eyes, but the "Xue'er," just now was really hopeful.

The dead are gone.

"I have been out for a long time, so I will go back first." Qing Yun said. She believes that Sima Hui should want to stay here alone for a while.

"Qingyun, stay with Big Brother for a while, just for a while." There was a pleading in his voice.

Qingyun nodded.

The door of Haitang Palace was closed, and Sima Hui stood there like this.

"Brother, why do you use some intrigues on women, especially those women who treat you sincerely?" Qing Yun asked for Xue Fei, and for herself.

"Because it's the right person. It's a deliberately chosen person. If she doesn't love me, I can't do so much." Sima Hui did not evade. "Are you disappointed with Big Brother?"

"I just still can't figure it out, I can count as a thousand sails. I think Concubine Xue is pitiful." Qingyun turned and looked at Sima Hui: "She died, do you have any regrets?"

"I don't regret it. I got what I wanted. It's just heartache. I didn't expect her to hear it. As she said, if she didn't hear it, it would be a peaceful life." Sima Hui said lightly.

"The one you really love is the queen?" Qing Yun asked.

Sima Wei paused: "I said I don't know, do you believe it?"

Qingyun sighed lightly: "Perhaps, if you do too many fakes, you think it is true. And the real, I forgot."

She looked at the blooming blooming plums: "Big brother, after the Chinese New Year, I want to leave. I'm going to find Qing'er."

Sima Hui looked up at her, "Are you going to Chaoyun Continent?"

Qingyun nodded: "I can't hide anything from Big Brother."

Sima Hui nodded, "It's okay, but you have to let me know whereabouts, or come back often, after all, the person said that he will return Qing'er, don't come back when the child comes back, you are not there."

"it is good."

"Let's go, it's too late, I'll send you back to the palace." Sima Hui said to Qingyun.

"You, don't you stay for a while?" Qingyun thought that he was here to see Concubine Xue. She sincerely hopes that he can stay here for a while.

"Let's go." Sima Hui said lightly.

Qingyun silently followed behind him. The love of the emperor is indeed expensive.

On New Year's Day, lanterns were hung everywhere in the palace, and torches were lit everywhere in the yard.

Sima Hui banqueted the ministers.

Qingyun stayed in the Yilan Temple to keep the year old, and when it was only one hour before his son, Qingyun finished bathing and began to copy medical books.

The Queen Pearl is here. She wore a purple cloak and a white fox fur collar. Brought two maids to the Yilan Temple.

Qingyun saluted her.

Mingzhu said: "The king said you don't want to go to the hall, I will come and see you."

The room was very hot and Mingzhu took off his cloak.

Qingyun saw that she was about to stay in Yilan Hall for a while, so she ordered people to prepare tea and some snacks.

Mingzhu wears a dark red brocade dress with a dark red beaded elastic pattern. Because it is a dark pattern, it looks only a faint red from a distance; with a black pleated dress embroidered with dark red dark peonies. He applied rouge lightly, and only a fringed hairpin with purple jade inlaid with pearls was inserted on his head, and he was dressed casually at home, with a bit of dignity in hospitality, elegant but unassuming.

Although the Chinese New Year was celebrated today, the funeral was only held in the palace a few days ago, and the smile between her eyebrows and eyes was as peaceful as pearls, and she saw gentleness but no sharpness.

Qing Yun secretly sighed, still this kind of woman is suitable for living in the palace. Like Concubine Xue, or her own kind of love and hatred, is destined to be planted in the palace.

"I came here specially today to thank you. Thank you for saving the little prince. Without you, I don't know what will happen. Xiao Zi, bring things up." Ming Zhu commanded with a sincere smile on her face.

Her close-fitting court lady Xiao Zi handed the box she was holding to Qingyun.

Mingzhu said: "I heard from the king that you like to study pharmacology, and there are some precious medicinal materials."

Qingyun thanked him: "You don't have to be polite, the king has saved me. This is what I should do."

Mingzhu stepped back and pulled Qingyun's hand and said: "This palace change is indeed thanks to you. I have already told the king that you saved the little prince twice. You, what are your plans in the future?"

Qingyun said, "I have no other plans, I want to find my son."

Mingzhu said: "There is nothing to be embarrassed about. The king likes you very much, and you are now homeless. If you want, the king can accept you as a concubine."

Qingyun was taken aback, and said hurriedly, "No, no, Wang Hao, I am doing well now. After the New Year, I will leave Nanzhao Kingdom to find my son. He is so young that he cannot leave his mother. Wait. It's been so long since no one sent him back, I don't want to wait any longer."

Mingzhu said: "The king is really nice to you."

Qingyun smiled softly: "Wang, empress, don't think too much. The king is my elder brother. The eldest brother also regards me as a younger sister. Most importantly, I have a lover."

Mingzhu said, "Your husband, isn't it already, isn't it?"

Qingyun shook his head: "I always think he is still alive and I will find him."

Mingzhu nodded: "Well, maybe I think too much. But if you really don't mean it, you'd better tell the king clearly, don't give him any thoughts."

Qingyun looked at Mingzhu: "Me and Wang Shang have nothing, and there is nothing to say clearly."

Mingzhu constricted the smile on her face, and her face became cold: "Do you know why Xue Fei was so desperate that day?"

Qingyun didn't speak.

Mingzhu said: "You heard it at the time. You must have thought it was because the king lied to her and used her."

Qingyun said, "Isn't it?"

Mingzhu said: "Yes. But do you know why she scratched her face?"

Qingyun stared at her: "Why?"

"When Concubine Xue came to Qingsong Palace, she found me there. She didn't enter the room. She stood there and heard the conversation between me and the king. At that time, I knew that the person the king really liked was you."

Qingyun "Huo" stood up.

"Because I found that Concubine Xue looks a little like you, and her temperament is also similar. I asked the king, and he said, Marrying Concubine Xue is because she looks like you."

Qingyun felt cold all over, "Queen, mother, why are you saying this to me?"

Mingzhu said: "I just want to come to see you today and say thank you. The other things are my own thoughts. The king doesn't know. Don't be angry."

Qingyun said: "The princess has misunderstood. Qingyun will leave after the Chinese New Year. Please don't worry, princess, I will not ask the king. The princess should please go back. The king is banqueting the minister in the hall. Suitable."

Mingzhu left with a smile, and hugged Qingyun affectionately when she left.

Qingyun was held by her and thought to herself: It is indeed not easy for a woman to be a queen in the palace.

During the New Year's Day, Sima Hui would go to Qingyun’s Yilan Temple to sit for a while every day, and talk to her about the battle with Daxing, the progress of Ling Ziqing, and even the news of Moshan.

Huo Jingyun really didn't get any advantage from Nan Zhao. Nanzhao Kingdom is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with complex topography and a prosperous country. We make friends with neighboring countries in peacetime, and never have war with neighboring countries. Now the Allied forces transferred by Huo Jingyun did not try their best to attack Nanzhao, but Daxing's direct line troops traveled long distances and attacked several times without success.

Ling Ziqing still had no news.

After the Spring Festival, Qingyun left Nanzhao State with only one letter to Sima Hui.

Since she didn't want to hide behind others, she had no choice but to go through wind and rain. She believed that Ling Chen was still alive. This Northern Wild Continent, Daxingguo was originally his world, Qing Yun always wanted to help Ling Chen.

Qingyun took Xiaojing to dress up in men's clothing, changed his face, and quietly returned to Daxing.

Qingyun once heard from Grandpa that there were several sub-rudders from other cities who were grandpa's henchmen, and Qingyun wanted to find them.

She went to Ganzhou first. She knew the Hall Master Zheng there. After so many years, he could not recognize Lan Ling's appearance, but everyone knew that Lan Ling was the queen of Daxing and was dead.

She couldn't tell him she was Lan Ling. Can he believe her with just a piece of ink?

When Qingyun arrived in Ganzhou, he went directly to Qingyitang to divide the rudder. She turned on Mo Ling to find Master Zheng Ruo, and Master Zheng Ruo immediately saw her.

He arranged a separate house for her to meet her.

Qingyun saw Master Zheng Ruo. Master Zheng Ruo had gray hair and a stern face. He looked difficult to get along with.

Qingyun was about to introduce herself, Zheng Ruo retired the guards on the main screen, and grasped her hand: "Girl, your grandpa said about your situation. Don't worry, we will support any decision you make.

hold. "

Qingyun was surprised: "My grandpa told me about my situation?"

"Yes, your grandfather said that when you were sentenced, they found someone to replace you. It was not you who died. Later you changed your name and changed your surname to come back again." Zheng Ruozhu said excitedly.

Qingyun nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, that's it."

Master Zheng Ruo said: "Ganzhou, Chuncheng, Yushui, Floating City, Yucheng, the old hall masters of these places have already greeted you when they were there. They all know your situation. Since the old hall master will Mo Ling gave it to you, and we will follow the old hall master’s last words. I will contact you for the sub-rudder in other places."

Qingyun said: "Okay, great, I want to see them all,"

Zheng Ruo said: "I will make an appointment with them, find a time for them to come over, let the girl see you."

Qingyun happily agreed.

Two days later, the Ganzhou Tsing Yi Hall was divided into rudder. The outside was a simple Tsing Yi Hall martial arts signboard. Entering the door, there was a cave inside.

Pavilions, terraces and pavilions, with winding paths, are full of large and small gardens and deep and shallow doors. There are doors in the doors, and there are houses in the house, and you can't see the head. Outsiders will get lost when they come in.

Qingyun knew that all the sub-rudders of Waifu Tsing Yi Hall were built like this, either they were built against the mountain, or they were built in a hidden and plain place.

Qingyun is still lost in these two days.

Today, Master Zheng Ruo invited other local masters of Tsing Yi Tang to come to meet him.

When the sub-rudder of the floating city came in, a follower behind him looked at Qingyun with tears on his face.

Qingyun took a closer look, and it turned out to be Lixia.

The two of them hugged each other tightly and wept with joy.

"Lixia, why did you go to the floating city?" Qingyun pulled Lixia aside and asked her carefully.

Lixia cried and said: "The last time the emperor gave me a marriage to Hall Master Chen Chao, I arrived at Ziyi Hall and found out that he actually has a lover. I like him, but the person he loves is not me."

Qingyun sighed: "The most difficult thing in the world is the human heart. He didn't say it then."

Lixia went on to say: "He is guarding me everywhere. Once, I accidentally heard them talking about the murder of Liu Chong, because Liu Chong heard what they wanted to rebel. I was panicked and he found out."

Qing Yun said: "Liu Chong risked his death to find me in the palace that time, just to tell me about it, but unfortunately..."

Lixia continued: "He didn't kill me, but locked me up until they succeeded in their rebellion. Once their branch hall master had a meeting in Ziyi Hall, Master Yang Duo quietly saved me..."

Qingyun looked at the master Yang Ruo, who was very young, not tall, his appearance was not good, and his face was gentle.

Qingyun was very grateful and bowed deeply to Master Yang Ruo. Master Yang Ruo was so frightened, he hurriedly got up to salute, his face flushed. Make everyone laugh.

Qingyun didn't expect to find Lixia here, and saw so many old people in Tsing Yi Tang. These were grandpa's confidants. Seeing Mo Lingru, the old hall master.

Qingyun knew that Moshan had turned against Huo Jingyun, and she was afraid that Huo Jingyun would be disadvantageous to Qingyitang, and asked them to continue to listen to Chen Chao as before. When the time is right, she will come back to look for them.

Qingyun asked Lixia to stay in the floating city.

Half a month later, Chaoyun Continent.

This is the first continent to see the sun.

The land is yellow, unlike the northern wasteland, which is black.

It was also February, but the wind was very soft, and there was a kind of emerald green grass growing along the broad road, tall and swaying.

Green is rarely seen in the winter in the northern wilderness. In the imperial city, bamboo and holly will be planted. Even the emerald cypress is the old green in winter without the moisture of the green here.

Qingyun immediately liked this place.

Chaoyun Continent has long been unified, and there are 20 vassal states in the entire continent. The capital is in the complex city of Chaoyun Kingdom.

Qingyun walked for many days.

The weather is very good these days. Qingyun was wearing a purple brocade, a moon-white pleated satin dress, and a cyan long velvet satin cloak. Take a small well.

Xiaojing had just recovered from his injuries and was still weak, so Qingyun hired a carriage along the way.

At noon that day, Qingyun saw the bustling crowd in front of him, like a market, and asked the uncle who was on the way: "Uncle, where is the place in front, why are there so many people?"

The uncle looked at her and said, "Are you from a foreign country? I don't know about the Xiangshan Temple Fair? Today is February 18, the Xiangshan Temple Fair! The largest temple fair in the country! The people are all going to Xiangshan to burn incense."

"Xiangshan Temple Fair? Uncle, is it close to Chaoyun Country?"

"Girl, this is Chaoyun Country already."

Qingyun was overjoyed: "Then is it close to Fancheng?"

The uncle said: "It's not too far, it's not near, you take a carriage, it will take two days."
