To the north is Shen Mansion, the royal city
The bright moon hangs high above the tall courtyard wall of Shen Mansion, and a gentle evening breeze blows into the lush courtyard. It is the time when the cold spring and winter plum blossoms have gone from blooming to withering. Shen Changge comes to the Yuebaipao Mansion , the hem of the clothes is embroidered with bamboo leaf patterns, the robe is exposed with silver hollow orchid trim, a jade belt is tied around the waist, and a hairpin is worn on the head. The hair is as long as flowing water and flows down the back. Her eyes are like stars, her thin lips are slightly pursed, and her temperament is gentle. The expression is lonely.
He held a green jade flute in both hands, and his whole body looked like a god under the cold moonlight. However, the tailor-made clothes he wore were a little too wide at the moment, making him look a little thin.
The moonlight in the sky is as cold as water, accompanied by the evening wind, the sound of the flute is melodious and sad, turning a thousand times, creating ripples, like a dream, like an illusion, like crying, like complaining...
One of the maids couldn't bear it, so she said to Shen Wu: "Old madam, the master of the house is leaving for Nan'an tomorrow, and he has to get up early. Now that it is getting late and the body is even more exposed, why not let the master have a rest early!"
Shen Wu's eyes were sad, looking at the lonely figure in the courtyard, and finally shook her head helplessly.
"Let it be!"
Changping Palace, the royal palace in the north
In the Changping Palace, which was covered with red gauze curtains, the wedding scene that was supposed to be joyful and joyous turned out to be particularly deserted because of the woman in the palace who was wearing a phoenix crown and a haori but couldn't stop crying.
Even the footsteps of all the palace people were very soft, and the two special envoys sent by Nan'an Kingdom could only stand awkwardly on both sides. At this time, there was a sudden noise from outside the palace. Qingcheng, who had just put on makeup again, couldn't help frowning. Hongyu beside her hurriedly walked out of the palace, but she didn't expect that before she left the door of the dormitory, someone had already strode in.
Princess Yonghe and several other princesses, dressed in gorgeous pink palace clothes, walked into the dormitory surrounded by palace people. Yonghe took the lead and said with a smile on his face: "Sister Qingcheng, sisters, I wish you and Emperor Nan'an the best." The red makeup is tied with a concentric knot, and the green trees are blooming and tied with lotuses. This pair of concentric knots and tied lotuses was embroidered by my sister. I gave it to you as a wedding gift. I hope you won’t dislike it!"
Both Hongyu and Lvzhu couldn't believe that Princess Yonghe would be so kind, so they were a little wary and didn't dare to accept her gift. However, Qingcheng turned around and smiled gently at her, and accepted her gift smoothly.
Only then did Yonghe see Qingcheng's makeup clearly and couldn't help but be a little stunned. Qingcheng is so beautiful today!
Her black hair was tied into an elegant bun, and the tassels embellished with gems swayed gently in the candlelight, adding a sense of charm to the dignified and noble red wedding dress. Her beautiful eyes were flowing, and her red lips were bright. With her sharp teeth and slender waist, she was so beautiful that even a woman couldn't take her eyes away.
She sincerely praised: "Qingcheng, you are so beautiful today!"
Several other princesses also agreed. They all knew that Qingcheng's status was no longer ordinary. She could marry into a powerful country like Nan'an and become the queen. After all, her status would be different from theirs. Thinking of the past festivals, they They all came over to say goodbye to her early in the morning, thinking that they could make up for it a little bit!
Qingcheng is now filled with sadness and helplessness, and is still dealing with the grudges and grudges between the children in the past. Therefore, a sister wedding that should have been touching turned out to be a bit hypocritical and embarrassing due to the respective concerns of both parties. .
As expected, even the princesses of the royal family at the pinnacle of power rarely have any affection at all.
"Dong, dong, dong, dong..." The supervisor in charge of the clock knocked four times.
The martial arts gate was wide open. Shen Changge, who was wearing a silver armor and a fine steel helmet, led a group of wedding banquet soldiers and slowly came towards Changping Palace. On the surface, he looked as usual and walked steadily, but he was the only one. Only then did he realize how painful his heart was at the moment. Every step he took was like walking on a sea of swords and fire. The closer he got to Changping Palace, the more he wanted to look back.
But he couldn't. He knew that the woman who had shown him the most beautiful smile in the world was waiting for him in Changping Palace. If there was anyone in the world who could feel her pain at this moment, it must be him! Although he can no longer do anything for her, he can at least accompany her through this journey of getting married! Let her have warmth and memories to remember during her last days in Beilin!
Hongyu glanced outside the palace door, and after seeing Shen Changge's figure, she hurried towards the dormitory. As soon as she entered the palace, she immediately said to Qingcheng: "Princess, we are all here!"
Hearing this, Qingcheng nodded to her and said, "Yes, Guqin!"
Hongyu immediately placed the guqin in front of Qingcheng from her side, then glanced sideways at the two Nan'an special envoys in the palace, and then said loudly outside the palace: "Generals, Princess Qingcheng thanks you for your hard work in escorting me all the way this time, so today Before getting married, I will play an Autumn Breeze poem to express my gratitude to all the generals!"
Shen Changge and the escorting imperial guards hurriedly clasped their hands and knelt on the ground to express their thanks: "Wei Chen, please thank Princess Qingcheng!"
Qingcheng's ten fingers were like the tips of fresh green onions, gently covering the strings, and the music sounded like weeping in the hall.
The autumn wind is clear, the autumn moon is bright,
The fallen leaves gathered and dispersed, and the jackdaws roosted again.
When will we know each other when we miss each other? It’s embarrassing to be here this night!
Entering my lovesickness door, you know my lovesickness is painful,
I miss you for a long time and remember each other for a long time, but I miss you for a short time without end.
If I had known that it would be so disturbing to people's hearts, why would I not have known each other in the first place
After the song was finished, the beauty in the palace did not move for a long time. She sighed in her heart, Changge, I know it will be uncomfortable for you to marry me in person, but this is the only way I can see you again. Forgive me, just let me. I will be willful and selfish again, and then we will forget each other!
The moment Shen Changge remembered the music, he was immersed in memories of the past outside the palace.
In the green bamboo forest, Qingcheng imitated his example and began to gently strum the strings. As he listened, he could tell that something was wrong, so he walked around behind her, gently held her hand, and said slowly: "You are playing something wrong here. , it’s time to pluck the Zhengxian.”
He sat behind her, almost hugging her whole body, holding her hand and teaching her step by step. Both of them were startled at the same time, their hearts pounding, but neither one wanted to let go of the other's hand!
Qingcheng suddenly panicked when he saw Queen Ling and Princess Yonghe approaching them aggressively. He sensed her fear and immediately protected her behind him, saying to her: "Don't be afraid, I will take care of everything."
Qingcheng looked at his still warm brows and immediately felt at ease.
In the Qinzheng Palace, he faced the king in the north and said with a sonorous voice: "Your Majesty! My admiration for Princess Qingcheng can be seen in the sun and the moon. I am willing to win the heart of one person, and we will never be apart forever!"
In the imperial garden, he spoke sternly: "Qingcheng, no matter whether they are eunuchs or palace maids, they are all the same as us. They are all raised by their parents and are made of flesh and blood. We feel pain when we are injured and cry when we are sad. They are the same. , we shouldn’t treat them as tools for our fun and base our happiness on their pain, can you understand this?”
Qingcheng nodded confusedly and said to him: "I understand, I will listen to you from now on!"
By the Qingyue Lake, the moonlight was intoxicating. Under the moonlight, Qingcheng's eyes were shining with stars. She lay in his arms and said drunkenly: "Chang Ge, will you marry me?"
He was startled when he heard this, and then he was ecstatic. He held her hand in surprise and solemnly said hello to her several times!
In Yongzhou Yaolu, Qingcheng narrowly escaped death. He held her hand and said to her: "Qingcheng, I will always be by your side from now on and will not let anyone hurt you again!"
Qingcheng held his hand in hers and said, "I believe in you! I will never leave you again! Wherever you are, I will be there! I will be good and won't cause trouble for you!"
At the back of Shaomu Palace, Qingcheng, who had been missing all night, threw herself into his arms. She was immediately aggrieved. Thinking of her thrilling experience that night, she sobbed softly: "Chang Ge, why did you come here? You don't know how rich I am. Fear?"
On the border battlefield, where millions of corpses lay buried, Qingcheng's frail and slender figure strode towards him. She threw out the flying needle in her hand and shot it at an enemy soldier who was about to slash at him again, and then she was covered in blood. He stood behind him and shouted towards Jun Hu: "Jun Hu! Don't shoot the arrow! Don't shoot the arrow! We surrender, we surrender!"
After being pushed down on the body by him, she immediately got up stubbornly and stood in front of him again, looking at him with a distressed face full of blood. She raised her other clean sleeve and helped him tenderly. He wiped the blood on his face bit by bit, and then faced with his soulless and hopeless expression, he cried out: "Chang Ge, let's not fight, let's go home!"
Facing him who would rather die than surrender, Qingcheng cried heartbreakingly. She turned her back, her wide sleeves catching wind in the strong wind. She pointed at the closed door with blood flowing into a river and corpses everywhere, and used With all his strength, he shouted loudly: "Changge, look behind you, look at them! They are all dead!"
Then she pointed to the soldiers who were still alive.
"But they, they are still alive, Fonda is also alive, he is just a child! Have you ever asked them if they are really willing to die? They all have families, and their families hope that they can Go back alive! Why do we have to die in battle to protect our country? We have tried our best, but we obviously can't defeat them, why not surrender? We can only live once in this life, why do we have to make such a unnecessary sacrifice? It’s not righteousness! It’s stupidity!”
On the way back to Beilin Wangcheng from the Nan'an military camp, Qingcheng warned him again and again: "Changge, when you go back, you have to tell your father that it was me who led the Beilin army to surrender, not you! You must remember, don't worry, Father will not do anything to me!"
…
Unknowingly, they have experienced so much, but the deep love between them finally lost to reality and rights! This is probably the case for all love that is deep but not destined to last forever!
Qingcheng now wants to use the sound of the piano to tell him that long-term lovesickness brings long-lasting memories, but short lovesickness brings endless love. If I had known that it would be so annoying, why would I not have known each other in the first place.
Why don't you get to know each other? That year on the Surabaya River, the woman weeping under the moon, the fairy's tearful joke, and the tearful smile will be unforgettable in just one glance!
Why don't you get to know each other? At Fenglin Ferry, because he couldn't bear it for a moment, he desperately dragged the disheveled "corpse" out of the lake in the cold winter. When he pushed back the scattered hair on her face to reveal the eyebrows and eyes that had appeared countless times in his dreams, How can I forget the shock in his eyes and the severe pain in my heart
Why don't you get to know each other? How could he forget the fishy sweetness in his mouth when he faced her lifeless body and the twelve bone-deep knife wounds on her hands in the Yongzhou courtyard, and how he could forget the pain that penetrated his bone marrow and was unconscious for many days
Once you meet some people, you will be hooked for thousands of years and have a certain heart-beating. Once you start, it will be irresistible.
Qingcheng, I will never forget you, I will only hide you deepest in my heart! I lost to you, and I don’t blame anyone.
Chang Ge remembered a story he had read. There was a young man who fell ill because his lover who had been in love for many years married someone else. One day a monk came to their house and gave him a mirror. He saw a female corpse lying on a beach. The first man came over to look at it, said it was pitiful and walked away. The second man walked over and covered her with his clothes, while the third man dug a hole and buried her.
The monk said that your lover was the girl on the beach in the last life. You only covered him with a piece of clothing. In repayment, she had been in love with you for many years, but she would eventually marry the man who dug a hole to bury her.
Fate is destined long ago, it just depends on the depth of the fate and the shallowness of the fate. Maybe there is just a little bit of fate between us that cannot be forced, no matter how much we force it!
