The princess and I had dinner at the master's place, and we were going back to the palace.
It was getting late at this time, my mother and the master watched us get into the carriage together, and asked us to be careful all the way.
The carriage walked slowly, and it was very quiet outside, and no sound could be heard.
The princess leaned on my shoulder, and we didn't speak a word.
The two of them listened to the sound of the wheels quietly, meditating on each other until they returned to the palace.
At this hour, most people in the palace have already fallen asleep.
That tree is in the corner of the imperial garden, and there is no one there now, so I am not afraid of being discovered by others.
The princess asked me to go under the tree first, she said she wanted to go back to Yihua Palace to clean up first, and she would come to find me soon.
The moonlight tonight is still so beautiful, the stars are dotted with stars, and the evening wind that blows through is carrying bursts of coolness, which actually cools people's hearts a little bit.
That night seemed to be the same, the only difference was that the moon was rounder, the stars were brighter, the wind was not so cold, and she would not leave...
Facing the moonlight, I walked towards the tree, just as I walked towards her that night.
The tree full of sachets, the tree that means a lot to us, the tree that hides our hearts.
Still growing there quietly like that, time doesn't seem to have any effect on the tree.
But with people, it's all too fast.
I was standing under the tree and crying sadly, when I heard a familiar voice behind me:
"Xi Ran, what are you thinking?"
I quickly wiped away the tears on my face, put on a happy look, then turned around and said:
"Princess, you are here, of course I miss you, look, this night is really beautiful!"
I saw that she had changed into a pink dress, and her long hair hung down her shoulders, which was tied casually with a blue ribbon.
The jade hairpin is lightly pulled, and the tip of the hairpin hangs like a small chain as thin as water drops. When it shakes slightly, it looks like rain, and it comes to me every time.
"You are only a poor talker."
After that, she walked to my side and scratched my nose lightly.
I took her hand that was about to let go, looked at her with a smile in my eyes and said:
"Princess, can this be regarded as our private life-long place?"
She lowered her head shyly, then turned her head away and said:
"Who has made a private life with you, I don't have one."
"Princess, do you still remember that you owe me a wish?"
"Um?"
She looked at me suspiciously, presumably she had forgotten.
"I still remember, you have to count on what you say?"
I winked at her, with an enigmatic smile on my face, and went on:
"Today, Xi Ran dared to use this tree and the moon as a matchmaker, and the stars in the sky as witnesses, and asked to marry Zhen'er as his wife. I wonder if Zhen'er would be willing?"
When she looked at me, tears filled her eyes.
"But...but I'm not ready, I'm not..."
I stroked her face with my hand, looked at her seriously and said:
"What else is there to prepare for? There is such a beautiful day and a beautiful woman by your side. The heavens and the earth will testify for us. What could be better than this."
"I mean you, you want to marry me like this. Is this princess's wedding so simple?"
I pouted and looked at her, what should I do now that I don't have anything with me, this... is it considered to be rejecting me...
Just when I was at a loss, she burst out laughing, then wiped the tears off her face, touched my head and said:
"You idiot, why can't you help being so funny? I don't want anything, you are enough."
I looked at her with joy, and then faced the tree with her, and said what I had always wanted to say in my heart.
"Here tonight, I, Song Xiran, swear to the big tree and the moon: I will marry the woman next to me, and I will only love her in this life.
Then she said the same oath, but replaced marry with marry.
Then we kowtowed three times to the tree to show our sincerity.
After the simple ceremony was completed, I looked at her seriously and said:
"Zhen'er, I'm so happy. Don't worry, you'll be fine. There are still two days left. I'll definitely find out the antidote. I want to be with you for the rest of my life."
"Xiran, I am satisfied with what you gave me. Even if I die, I will have no regrets. Can you promise me one thing now?"
I looked at her very seriously, so I nodded.
"Tomorrow night, you come back to this place to open the sachet I hung that day. There are some words in it that I want to say to you. No matter what happens, you must come here, okay?"
I looked at her puzzled, she must have her meaning.
I held her tightly in my arms, tighter than usual, and was reluctant to let go for a long time.
On the second day, after I had breakfast, I went out to look for medicine.
Suddenly, I heard a rumor from someone in the palace that the princess was getting more and more poisoned, she fell into a severe coma, and was already bedridden.
Hearing this news, my world suddenly felt like a landslide, and my heart ached so hard that I couldn't extricate myself.
I hurried back to the palace, and saw her lying on the bed with her eyes closed quietly, with a group of imperial physicians and maids guarding her.
The emperor was also there, and when he saw me, he said to me angrily:
"You still have one more day, and one more day if you can't find the antidote, I will kill you."
After saying that, I walked away in a huff, and I was stunned. Didn't Wei Qi say seven days
Why... why is it so fast, the person who was talking and laughing with me yesterday, what happened today
I sat down on the ground with a plop, crying uncontrollably.
Why do people always fail to get married with the one they love? Why is God so cruel to us
I asked the others to step down first, and just sat outside the bed to take care of her.
As the night deepened, I suddenly remembered that I had promised her to open that sachet yesterday.
Looking at the sleeping person on the bed, I hesitated whether to go or not. I was afraid that if I left, she would...
But if I promise her, I will fulfill my promise.
So I went to the tree alone and found the sachet she hung that day.
After the sachet was opened, there was a note hidden in it. I opened the note slowly, and saw that it read:
Xi Ran outside Yinshi city tomorrow, wait for me.
At this moment, I could no longer hold back the tears in my eyes, crying and laughing like crazy in the dark night.
Early in the morning of the second day, the obituary for the funeral was posted outside the palace:
Mu Zhen, the second princess of Daqi, died of poisoning.
The emperor is deeply saddened. From now on, all entertainment and wedding activities will be stopped throughout the country, and the whole country mourns for the princess for a month.
People all over the city gathered at the obituary office, talking about it.
"Have you heard, just last night. The princess died, and Master Song beside her also disappeared without a trace."
"Don't you know, some of them say that the princess is not dead..."
"Is that so? Then where did she go, tell me what's going on..."
…
While everyone was guessing, two people in the distance were sitting on a horse, one behind the other, looking in the direction of the imperial city.
I saw the man in white sitting behind said:
"Princess, okay, you cheated me so hard. Isn't this joke a little too big? You even colluded with my mother and master?!"
The woman in Tsing Yi who was wearing a veil in front laughed softly:
"Why, I'm married, and I still want to regret it? How could I be so stupid as to take that medicine? How can I leave the palace without any worries if I don't pretend."
"Don't dare, but what if everyone in the world says you're dead?"
"It's not interesting in that imperial city. Now it's just what I want. From now on, there will be no such person as "Mu Zhen" in this world. Also, the wedding ceremony under the tree was too hasty. I must replenish it." .”
"Okay, lady, let's go home with my husband."
"Who is your wife~"
"You, what you said, you are married, you are not allowed to go back on your word! Princess, I don't want to be an imperial cook anymore, I just want to be your own little cook, and make flower cakes for you for a lifetime, how about it?"
"Okay~"
"We have to raise a lot of flowers and plants together, how about cats and dogs?"
"Okay~"
"I still want a little doll, okay?"
"Okay, if you can give birth, I have no problem~"
"Uh... let's forget it then. Lady, sit down and elope with your husband!"
After finishing speaking, the man in white hugged the woman in his arms tightly and said:
"drive".
The horse galloped towards the horizon, slowly disappearing into the boundless skyline...

Flowers are over! ! ! After one month and twenty-two days, I finally filled this hole, but I feel a little dissatisfied, maybe my brain is a little rusty. (laughing and crying)
