”The night before your Grandmother's birthday banquet, Emperor suddenly released his might in the Pingxi Palace, and hurriedly left in the middle of the night. However, only the Emperor and the Empress would know what happened. ”
Lian Si Yue originally thought that Lian Yan Qing would know the reason behind the Consort being demoted, but she didn't expect that even he didn't know.
”Then doesn't that mean that the Ninth Prince can only stay in the Duke Palaces?” Lian Jue asked.
”Although Emperor did not strip him of his title, he was forbidden from entering the palace. This means that he cannot participate in the imperial government, and the Abandoned Crown Prince has lost his last ally. It looks like Emperor is determined to weaken the crown prince's remaining power, so the Ninth Prince will naturally be affected. Lian Yan Qing said.
When I played with him, I saw him a few times. Every time he didn't speak much, he would always look at us quietly, and he seemed to have lost his independence from the world, as if he was not allowed to live in the world. I dare say that his appearance is also the most outstanding out of all the princes. It's such a pity that things have turned out like this. ” Lian Jue lamented on the side.
On the road out from Wen Hua Yuan, Lian Si Yue appeared to be in a state of silence. After thinking about it, Feng Yun Zheng's memories of his in her previous life became blurry, and even though he had allied with Feng Qian Yue, she rarely saw him in Prince of Yue's Mansion. So, even though this person had risked his life twice to speak up for her at her most miserable, and even had his head chopped off by Feng Qian Yue as the ”Consort Queen”, she didn't know much about him.
And she had only met him twice with such a deep impression …
The first time they met, was on the day of her and Feng Qian Yue's marriage. The bridal sedan chair went all the way from Prime Minister's Palace to Prince of Yue's Mansion, and after finished paying his respects, and was supported by the nanny to the new house, a sudden gust of wind blew past her head, causing her red head to be blown away.
Her hands tightly covered her face, while the nanny and her servants hurriedly chased after the red hair that was blown away by the wind.
”Yours.” Suddenly, a strange voice sounded in front of her. Her heart trembled, and she slowly let go of her hand that was covering her eyes. A hand stretched out in front of her, and in that hand was the red veil that had fallen to the ground.
She was stunned. She slowly raised her head and saw a man's face in front of her.
Under his sword-like eyebrows, his eyes were as black as ink, his eyes were as bright as the stars, and he gave off a disdainful air. The corner of his mouth was lifted into a faint arc, containing both the charm of the spring and autumn flowers, and also the sharpness of the deep sea.
In her heart, Feng Qian Yue's appearance was already at the peak, but the man in front of her, seemed to unknowingly shock the world, turning everyone upside down.
He wore a white embroidered robe, and his sleeves fluttered in the wind. He wore a purple and gold crown on his head, and his entire body exuded a cold and noble aura.
Who is he?
Her face was red and hot, and her earlobes seemed to be about to bleed. This was the first time she was so close to a man other than Feng Qian Yue, and for a moment, she forgot to take back her veil.
He smiled and slowly lifted the hood back over her head. When the red cap was slowly lowered, his face slowly disappeared from her sight, so she didn't know what expression he had on his face. She seemed to hear a soft sigh from him, but it didn't seem to be there.
”Ninth Prince!” Only then did she realize that the man in front of her was Ninth Prince Feng Yun Zheng, the idle prince who was rumored to be relegated by the emperor to the outside of the palace. He did not allow anyone to enter the palace.
This was the first time they had met.
The second time they had met, was after Lian Shi Ya had entered the palace. At that time, the rumors of her loss of favour as an empress had already spread like wildfire.
One day, after fighting a huge battle with Lian Shi Ya, she suddenly felt both mentally and physically exhausted, her heart was disheartened and she even had the thought of giving up her position, leaving the palace and everything else behind.
She ordered the palace maids and eunuchs to withdraw, and walked along the tiniest human path in the imperial garden by herself. A light breeze blew, and peach blossoms by the side of the road floated down, as she thought back to the grudges she had with Feng Qian Yue and Lian Shi Ya. Her heart ached to the point that she could not breathe, and she walked forward step by step, with her hands covering her chest.
Normally, she would not show any signs of weakness in front of others, because she was the Empress and the master of the Six Palaces.
But at this moment, when there was no one by her side, she could no longer control her emotions. She stopped walking, leaned her back against the rock garden, and closed her eyes. Tears of exhaustion and sadness rolled down her ice-cold face.
As soon as he entered the palace gate was as deep as the sea, and as soon as he entered the palace gate was as deep as the sea.
Currently, Feng Qian Yue's heart was already completely with Lian Shi Ya, so he definitely would not care about her sadness and happiness.
It hurts, it hurts.
She slid down the rockery and sat on the ground. She didn't look like a queen anymore.
”Take it.” She was crying when a voice suddenly sounded in front of her. She was shocked. She didn't have time to wipe the tears from her cheeks as she suddenly raised her head to look at the person in front of her …
It's him, Ninth Prince Feng Yun Zheng!
At this moment, his pair of deep and serene eyes were looking at her. He held a handkerchief in his hand, and held it before her. His fingers were clean and slender, and his joints were clearly strong.
Why was he here? Did he see her cry?
