Zhong Lishuo vaguely remembered that the queen did not speak savagely. When she read the records of various tribes together, she directly held the original text and translated it to the queen. It's just His Highness, such a very familiar name, accompanied her through all the dark times.

Many years ago, after the approval of Qinglan, the chief minister, Xuan Jingchen, who had the astrolabe of the ruler of the world, became the target of the government and the opposition.

Xuan Jingchen handed in the military talisman to show his loyalty. The still seriously ill Emperor Thorn threatened Zhong Lishuo as the crown prince, and ordered her to kill the woman who would end the Zhongli Dynasty with the help of this star.

"Your father was killed by me, your mother died because of you, you fell from a tree when you were eight years old, and I ordered people to scare you."

"You foolishly call me Empress Empress. It's ridiculous to recognize a thief as a mother."

"Do you know why I didn't kill you? Because your face is more and more like your mother, I am reluctant to do it."

"If it wasn't for you, Yan'er wouldn't die."

"You want to force the palace? Do you know that the golden robe guards you bring are all my people. What's the use of those who supervise Tiansi, as long as I am the king for a day, they will not be able to hold me back."

The Emperor Thorn, who was lying on the sick bed, was neatly dressed, looked at Zhong Lishuo who was kneeling in front of the bed, raised the jade pillow and smashed it at Xuan Jingchen beside her.

With a bang, the blood-stained jade pillow fell to the ground. Zhong Lishuo turned his head and saw the weak princess kneeling on the ground with her head down, blood gurgling down from her forehead, stinging the prince's eyes red.

The Thorn Emperor roared sharply, his eyes glowing fiercely, "Kill her, you are the descendant of Zhongli's clan, as long as you kill her, I can give you the military talisman, the country and the mountains, and everything in the past will be forgiven."

"Or, you have other options."

The Emperor Thorn on the sickbed looked at the weak-crowned young man kneeling in front of him who had the same temperament as the man with the beautiful moon, and said fiercely and bewitchingly: "Aren't you trying to force the palace? As long as you kill me, no one has to die. ."

"Don't you want to take revenge? You forgot how I told you that your father was chopped up by me and sprinkled into cold water, and he will never be born." The already mad Thorn Emperor still has an unparalleled beauty. She was insane at the moment, like the beautiful and evil gods and demons in the murals.

The boy who was shrouded in darkness got up, looked at the Emperor Thorn on the bed, and said with tears, "Since Your Majesty insists on doing this, then I have no choice."

She got up, took off the dagger from her waist, walked to the emperor step by step, and muttered: "Those who killed the monarch will flow into the ruins. Your Majesty, with Shuo accompanying you on the road to the east, it is considered a reunion. "

She approached the Emperor Thorn, who could not move her lower body, and sent the dagger to her heart. The bloody blade was drawn from her warm chest. Zhong Lishuo backhanded, pointed the blade at himself, and sent it into his heart.

At this moment, her eyes darkened and she lost consciousness.

She murdered the king, but got the entire golden robe who obeyed her, and the world that everyone wanted. Zhong Lishuo knew that he was not suitable to be the emperor, and that another person in Zhong Li's family, Zhong Limu, was not suitable to be the emperor either. Sooner or later, the world would belong to Xuan Jingchen.

Therefore, in those few years, like redemption, she spent all her energy and cultivated a bunch of usable talents together with Xuan Jingchen. She imagined that in ten or eight years, she would be able to cede her position to Xuan Jingchen and end Zhongli's home state of Chu.

Emperor Thorn died because of her, even if he was seriously ill and had no cure, she was the one who killed Emperor Thorn in the end. Except for Xuan Jingchen, only Qing Lan knew about this. After the Emperor Assassin left, Zhong Lishuo was in the shadows for a long time. As long as Xuan Jingchen called her His Majesty, she would think of the Emperor Assassin who died under her sword.

No one knew that the dashing-looking Emperor Zhao was an executioner. She shared this experience with Xuan Jingchen, and Zhong Lishuo, who felt guilty and innocent, privately asked Xuan Jingchen not to call her your majesty.

No matter the words or names, don't call her Your Majesty, because this word is a serious sin for her.

In the following years, Xuan Jingchen always addressed her as His Highness as he did when he got married. Accumulated day by day, it never changed.

That dark past had been burned up when it was burned by the fire. She didn't want to think about the grievances and grievances between the Emperor and her, as well as the past between her mother and the Emperor. In this world, except for Xuan Jingchen, no one else knows the secrets of Emperor Thorn, and all the unfortunate things will be washed away with the flow of time.

Even Zhong Lishuo didn't remember the angry and scared mood at that time. What remains in her memory now is Xuan Jingchen's "His Royal Highness", whose voice is reassuring.

It's an illusion, why do you think that Empress Fang Cai's slip of the tongue is calling herself.

Zhong Lishuo looked at Xuan Jingchen's face, holding the clove-flavored hand ointment in his hand, and felt like a numbness in his heart.

The queen gave her the posthumous title of "Zhao", wrote her sacrificial texts to rectify her name, and spread her musical scores to the world. Is it really just the friendship between the ruler and the minister? As a king, is she really good enough to be so admired by the king of the new dynasty? Could it be that the queen would like her a little in her heart

Looking at this almost identical face, do you think of her

That highness, was it really just a mistake? Why do you suddenly have to test her barbarian language, is the queen such a boring person? Just because Le Zhengying mentioned something

Zhong Lishuo thought about it carefully, thinking about everything related to him, thinking about all kinds of things before his death, and some delusions that he dared not exist all surfaced at this moment.

The heartbeat suddenly accelerated, Zhong Li Shuo looked at the queen who was copying the scriptures, and asked cautiously: "I have been with Your Majesty for some time, and I found that the scriptures copied by Your Majesty have always only been prayers, and I don't know who Your Majesty's scriptures were written for. ?" The scriptures of the prayer chapter have always been copied for the sake of their relatives, Zhong Lishuo thought, would the queen write it for her

"This scripture..." Xuan Jingchen looked at the boy's familiar face, shook his head and chuckled, as if he sighed, "Naturally, it was written for the people of the Qing Kingdom."

Zhong Lishuo, who got the answer, felt lost. It turned out that it wasn't for her. Also, if it is for relatives and friends, it should be for parents first, not her.

The young man's lost expression did not fall into Xuan Jingchen's eyes, and Xuan Jingchen left behind those thoughts he wanted to get rid of. After he left the last scripture, he thought for a moment and said, "Today I am suddenly testing your savage language, it is the Ministry of Rites. I have recommended you as a companion to Prince Su He. Prince Su He will come to Yuanzhou soon, and you will inevitably get tired with him in the future. I think about it, starting from tomorrow, the little gentleman will not be used to teach me any more. ."

This news caught Zhong Lishuo off guard, she stared at Xuan Jingchen in a daze, and it took a while to react, and she said, "But Wuchen didn't speak well."

Xuan Jingchen shook his head and said, "It's not that Mr. Xiao's knowledge is not good, but I feel that Mr. Xiao will be too busy to accompany the prince and participate in the assessment of the Privy Council in autumn." Yan After all, Xuan Jingchen chuckled lightly, with a gentle face, "I also hope that little gentleman can be admitted to the Privy Council and write a history book for me."

No, her expression was wrong.

Zhong Lishuo, who was with Xuan Jingchen for a long time, saw something wrong from her subtle expression. She is obviously smiling, why is her expression so sad. Zhong Li Shuo watched her pick up the scriptures on the case one by one, and put them in the incense burner to burn. The firelight danced in her eyes, reflecting a clear sadness.

Zhong Lishuo's heart tightened, and he asked nervously, "Thanks to Your Majesty's love, can Your Majesty encounter anything unpleasant today?"

At this moment, Zhong Lishuo doesn't care whether she can face the queen day by day. What she cares about is the things that make the queen unhappy now.

The youth's keenness made Xuan Jingchen raise her eyes, she looked at Le Zhengsu's serious expression, and said warmly, "I didn't..."

Zhong Lishuo interrupted her words and said, "I don't think Your Majesty is very happy. Is there anything unpleasant? Can you tell me about it?"

Her expression at the moment was not like that of a 16-year-old boy, who was reflected in Xuan Jingchen's eyes, like the young and handsome Prince Zhaoming. Xuan Jingchen was in a trance for a moment, and said: "There is nothing unhappy about it, just looking at the burnt scriptures, thinking of turning to the "Tai Yi Ji" today's revival chapter, thinking about it, there are really people in this world who can die after death. Resurrection person?"

Zhong Lishuo's heart skipped a beat, watching Xuan Jingchen throw the scriptures in his hand into the incense burner one by one, listening to her curling his lips and smiling: "How can there be a person who can survive in this world? It's just an extravagant prayer."

"I only think that this article is just a warning to strangers not to have too many delusional thoughts. I just feel that it is a pity..." Xuan Jingchen looked at the burnt paper in the furnace, and said softly: "The dust returns to the dust, the dust returns to the dust, and then the dust returns to the dust. Deep emotions also perish with death."

Zhong Lishuo's heart was shocked, but she felt that there were thousands of words in her throat. She took a deep breath and said to the queen: "Your Majesty, my personal opinion is not this. It is true that death will cut off everything, but emotions cannot, parents. Will the grace of nurturing, the companionship of husband and wife, and the love of nurturing children disappear when the other person dies?"

"I don't think it's possible. Death doesn't cut everything off. Emotions are things that mortals can't let go of."

The young man corrected Xuan Jingchen's statement and said to Xuan Jingchen: "Your Majesty, the word affection is also in my Taiyi Jingyi, and I hope Your Majesty will not be sad about it."

Her words seemed to be very reasonable and well-founded, Xuan Jingchen looked at her like a portrait of Emperor Zhao, looked away, smiled and said: "Little gentleman is a believer of the Eastern Emperor, I am sure that there is a resurrection, I can understand."

Zhong Lishuo shook his head and said, "It's not that I believe in the Eastern Emperor, but that when I have a deep enough obsession, I will also hope to do it all over again to complete the unfinished business." that person.

"Your Majesty, I believe in the resurrection of the soul. But I also think that death cannot separate emotions. Even if the yin and yang are separated, lovers will eventually be married."

She returned from the ruins for the obsession that could not be completed before her death.

Xuan Jingchen was attracted by the stubbornness in the boy's eyes. At this moment, she looked at the boy's beautiful eyes, as if she had returned to the ruined temple in her twenties.

Qing Jun is timeless, elegant and unparalleled, this is her Royal Highness.

His Royal Highness the Prince who will never be seen again.
