The princess is killing like crazy again

In spring, the flying flowers diminish the spring, and the wind blows thousands of petals, which makes people sad.

Liu Pinjue put down the book in his hand and looked over. His princess student, who was from a noble family, had her eyes closed.

Xiao Yurong's eyelashes trembled nervously, as if she had dreamed about something.

The fire in the dream was burning so fiercely that everywhere I looked was flames and charred corpses.

The imperial city was lost, Yujing fell, his brother died in battle, and the Xiao family was destroyed.

In troubled times, the life and death of individuals are too careless, and even the survival of an entire large clan will only result in a few strokes in the history books.

In this turbulent era, the imperial power was unstable and almost in name only, and clans were fighting each other in their own territories.

The aristocratic families intermarried with each other, which can be described as the aristocratic families being permanent while the royal families being transient.

But Xiao Yurong was a princess of the Chule Dynasty. After her father died, her brother ascended the throne and named her Princess Zhaoyang.

From childhood to adulthood, there is nothing she cannot get as long as she wants it.

Xiao Yurong abused his power and became regent, with great influence in the court and the whole country. With the connivance of his brother Xiao Yuxie, who was born of the same mother, he became even more arrogant and domineering, holding the power over everything.

Later, Xiao Yurong fell in love with a man, Cui Ci Ning, a young general of Yinzhou. It would be better to say that he fell in love with Cui Ci Ning, but in fact, he fell in love with the entire Yinzhou.

After being rejected by Cui Ci Ning, Xiao Yurong became angry and humiliated, and repeatedly advised Xiao Yu to give up.

If you want to accuse someone, you can always find a pretext. An imperial decree was issued to execute the entire Cui family. Cui Ci Ning raised the banner of rebellion that night, fled Yujing to Yinzhou, and gathered his old troops to counterattack Yujing.

Because of the dispute caused by Xiao Yurong, the Cui and Xiao families became mortal enemies.

The hands of Cui Ci Ning and Xiao Yurong were both stained with the blood of each other's relatives and friends. Later, Xiao Yurong no longer wanted Cui Ci Ning and she wanted Cui Ci Ning to die.

And what about Cui Ci Ning? He probably wanted her life too.

The Cui family army was brave and good at fighting, with strong soldiers and horses. Moreover, the Cui family had been defending the border and resisting the Hu people for generations.

In the protracted tug-of-war, the imperial army gradually lost the upper hand, until finally, the Cui family joined forces with the Wang and Liu families, and the Xiao family was destroyed.

On a snowy day, the city gates were broken, Xiao Yurong set fire to Princess Zhaoyang's mansion and committed suicide for his country.

Before his death, Xiao Yurong knelt on the ground, covered his face and wept bitterly, then he smiled while crying.

She was so stupid, she provoked the wrong people, and she implicated her loved ones.

How could she forget that her father and brother died with their eyes open? She shouldn't drag the Xiao royal family into the quagmire for her own selfish desires.

She had never listened to the advice of her ministers, nor had she read her brother's letters. Her brother had gone to this point only to support her hatred.

She is insatiable.

But even though she was like this, her brother still died to protect her in the end.

"Brother, Rongrong was wrong..." Xiao Yurong crawled on the ground, tears in her eyes, until the last bit of tears was swallowed by the flames.

Before the flames engulfed everything, Xiao Yurong heard a cry that sounded like sobbing: "Your Highness!"

There is no more Princess Zhaoyang and no more Xiao Yurong in the world.

"Rongrong? Rongrong?"

"Your Highness..."

The calling voice came from far away, and Xiao Yurong woke up from her dream. A breeze blew on her face, the sound of silver bells was crisp and pleasant, and the veil fluttered. Everything seemed like a different world.

"What's going on? What kind of nightmare is this?" someone next to him laughed.

Xiao Yurong turned her eyes dully and looked over. Her third brother was sitting at the table in front of her, laughing and talking with lively eyes.

The third son of the emperor, Xiao Yusheng.

"Third Prince, please stop bothering her." Wang Wanru, her best friend, said from the side.

Xiao Yurong looked at her third brother. At that time, her father was not dead yet, her eldest brother had not succeeded to the throne yet, and she was still a princess.

But in the dream, the enemy had just chopped off Xiao Yuxie's head and put it on the tip of a gun to challenge the royal family.

Seeing that scene, Xiao Yurong cried breathlessly and knelt on the ground begging for forgiveness.

The eldest brother died in battle, and the third brother Xiao Yusheng succeeded to the throne, became the new emperor, and led the troops to fight in person.

He gritted his teeth and said angrily: "How dare you ask for forgiveness?"

He turned around and was about to leave with the gun in hand. Xiao Yurong grabbed his hand, choking with sobs and unable to speak.

Xiao Yusheng didn't look down at Xiao Yurong. He tightened his grip on the gun handle and closed his eyes. "But I will still fight for you."

Xiao Yusheng shook off Xiao Yurong's hand and followed the troops out, leaving Xiao Yurong alone.

He never came back, and none of the sons of the Xiao family came back.

But Xiao Yusheng was still smiling and talking in front of him: "Why are you stupid? You've come back to life."

Xiao Yurong shook his head blankly, and finally came to his senses. Everything that had just happened seemed like a dream, but it was too real.

She actually...really came back?

Her eyes were hot, "Where's my brother?"

"Hey, I said she was stupid. She forgot that my brother and the Cui family army went to the border to suppress the foreign tribes." Xiao Yucheng said, "But it doesn't matter. My brother will return to the court soon."

"Xiao Qingqing." A voice came from above, and everyone around suddenly fell silent.

Hearing this familiar name, Xiao Yurong looked up in a daze.

Qingqing, her nickname, was only used by a few people. That person was one of them, because he was the one who gave her this nickname.

For a long time, Xiao Yurong thought about what this meant. After all, the word "Qing" was too intimate.

Looking into those eyes as calm as black jade, Xiao Yurong felt an inexplicable pain in his heart. He just stared at that person blankly, tears welling up in his eyes unconsciously.

Liu Pinjue, her teacher, her enemy.

Those who had laid siege to the city in the past were the Cui family, the Liu family, and the Wang family. The Cui family was out for hatred, the Wang family was out for profit, and Liu Pinjue of the Liu family was even worse. They were a master and a disciple, but he actually teamed up with Cui Ci Ning to kill her.

After spending so much time together, she actually had no idea that Liu Pinjue had any rebellious intentions.

Staring at Liu Pinjue, Xiao Yurong opened his mouth, tears streaming down his face as he tried to speak.

"What are you doing in class? I haven't said anything yet, why are you crying?" Liu Pinjue was shocked by her look and asked with a frown.

Xiao Yurong's eyes suddenly filled with tears again and she could no longer hold it back.

While shedding tears, she lowered her head and couldn't help laughing.

That’s great… That’s great, it’s really great. She will not make the same mistake again this time. She must get what she wants.

She wiped away her tears and said seriously, "It's nothing, my eyes just suddenly felt sore."

"Let's stop here for today. School is over." Liu Pinjue frowned slightly, "Xiao Qingqing, stay."

What good could it be to be left behind by Liu Pinjue? Xiao Yusheng and Wang Wanru gave Xiao Yurong a look that said "May the best come to you" and quietly packed up their things and left with the other students.

Xiao Yurong lowered his head and said nothing. Liu Pinjue lowered his eyes and looked at the students who seemed particularly unusual today, as if thinking about something.

The way Xiao Yurong looked at him just now... Liu Pinjue asked, "Why were you so absent-minded in class today?"

"I just feel a little unwell." Xiao Yurong forced a smile.

"Where?" Liu Pinjue asked calmly.

I feel uncomfortable just seeing you. Xiao Yurong took a deep breath and kept smiling: "Sir, don't you care about me? Why bother asking so much?"

Liu Pinjue paused.

Xiao Yurong always liked to have fun. In the past, he also liked to pretend that he didn't understand and chase Liu Pinjue to ask for answers. As a result, Liu Pinjue's limited patience was completely exhausted.

Finally, one sunny afternoon, when Xiao Yurong once again pestered Liu Pinjue with questions, Liu Pinjue came clean.

Xiao Yurong still remembers Liu Pinjue's cold gaze. He tapped the edge of the table with his fingertips, "I really don't care about the princess."

"Ah?" Xiao Yurong hadn't reacted when he heard this and raised his head stupidly.

"Whether the princess lives or dies has nothing to do with me." Liu Pinjue half closed his eyes wearily and said, "As a teacher, I should teach you academic ethics, but don't bring out these little tricks that are not presentable.

He said calmly, "This time, Princess, go back and copy the book ten times to learn from it and take it as a warning."

Xiao Yurong had never been humiliated by anyone before, and the memory was profound. He felt like a kitten that had just stretched out its claws and was hit back. From then on, he avoided Liu Pinjue.

After such a long time, Xiao Yurong still remembered this incident, which must be a grudge. Liu Pinjue half-closed his eyes, "Are you angry because of this?"

"How could that be? I am really not feeling well. If you don't believe me, just punish me." Xiao Yurong was too lazy to continue dealing with Liu Pinjue and suppressed his smile.

Anyway, he and Liu Pinjue are lifelong enemies.

Although the Cui family was the main force in the previous life, it was the Liu family who made plans behind the scenes and reaped the benefits.

In later generations, people spread the rumor that Liu and Xiao shared the world.

It was precisely because the Liu family declared themselves king in Yunzhou that they fought with the Xiao royal family for a long time until the Yujing city was broken.

Since the Liu family had already been planning a rebellion, why would she be so cautious? Xiao Yurong smiled at Liu Pinjue and said, "Since the master will not punish me, I will return to the palace."

After saying that, she got up and left without waiting for Liu Pinjue's reply.

Liu Pinjue stared at her back with a serious look and threw the book in his hand on the table.

A man walked out from the shadows behind him, knelt down and handed the letter in his hand to Liu Pinjue, "Master."

Taking the letter, Liu Pinjue glanced at the contents and said, "Well, send some people to keep an eye on Princess Zhaoyang's mansion."

"My lord, did you send someone to look after Princess Zhaoyang because the crown prince is returning to the court?" the subordinate asked cautiously.

"No, Xiao Qingqing looks different than usual." Liu Pinjue lowered his eyes. Xiao Yurong's first look at him was too complicated. He glanced at his subordinates lightly and said, "Since you are talking too much, go and accept the punishment yourself."

"Yes." The subordinate was miserable. He should have known not to ask that question. Although his master would answer his questions, he would also punish him afterwards.

Xiao Yurong walked outside the Imperial College, and Cuicui, the personal maid who had been waiting for a long time, bowed her head and whispered: "Princess, the prince is back."

"Brother is back?" Xiao Yurong raised her eyebrows.

Cuicui paused for a moment, "Princess, there is another person traveling with the prince."

Xiao Yurong remembered that Xiao Yuxie had brought someone with him when he returned to the capital this time.

Her head buzzed and she watched Cuicui's mouth opening and closing as she spoke.

"In Yinzhou, the northern border, Cui Cinning, the second son of the Cui family."

Xiao Yurong remembered that it was because her brother brought Cui Ci Ning back this time that she fell in love with Cui Ci Ning's appearance and also fell in love with Yinzhou.

Her ambition is not limited to the Cui family of Yinzhou, the Liu family of Yunzhou is also a place she must fight for.

Xiao Yurong wanted to use the marriage to completely bind himself to Cui family, but Cui Ci Ning was a very respectful person who looked respectful but was actually disrespectful, and he looked down upon Xiao Yurong's proposal.

This completely angered Xiao Yurong, and she immediately got engaged to the Li family, a prominent family in Yujing.

Later, the rebels revolted and directly attacked Yujing. As a prominent family, the Li family also contributed to the flames.

Xiao Yurong calmed down and said, "Since Big Brother is back, let's go and welcome him."

Cuicui responded, "Yes, Princess."

Xiao Yurong walked through the garden, where flowers were everywhere, shadows passed through the corridors, and warm fragrance filled the air.

Through the green bamboos and pines, Xiao Yurong could see the two young men in front of the rockery from afar.

One was her brother, with a stern face, full of heroic spirit, dressed in luxurious black brocade clothes, and with sharp and deep eyes.

The other handsome one is her enemy, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and an imposing manner. His eyes and eyebrows are full of high spirits. He is still the young man in fine clothes and on a vigorous horse, and the heroic young general.

There is a unique youthfulness between Cui Ci Ning's eyebrows and eyes, and Xiao Yurong liked exactly this in his previous life.

"The palace gardens are really beautiful in the spring. Such delicate flowers and trees cannot be grown in the northern border." Cui Ci Ning exclaimed in amazement, "It is worthy of being the royal capital Yujing."

Xiao Yuxie raised an eyebrow, "Are you talking about these weeds?"

Cui Ci Ning's eyes widened. "My old man has been raising it for several months but it still hasn't survived. Now it has become a weed here?"

"elder brother."

Before I saw the person, I heard his voice first.

Cui Ci Ning, who was still immersed in the shock of finding precious flowers and trees as weeds, turned his head and saw a girl with bright eyes and white teeth walking under the lush green shade.

Long hair like black jade, skin like snow, red lips pursed lightly, face like peach blossoms. She wore a white dress with a peach blossom on her temples, making her look more beautiful than the flower.

Are all girls in the south as soft and gentle as jade? Beauty is like jade, nothing more than this.

Cui Ci Ning recalled that when he had just met Emperor Xiao, Emperor Xiao told Xiao Yuxie that the princess had just recovered from her illness and needed to be taken care of.

At that time, he thought that a man like Xiao Yuxie should not be impatient with such trivial matters as his sister's recovery from a minor illness, but Xiao Yuxie frowned and asked carefully about some details before responding that he would go to see his sister in a while.

Cui Ci Ning was still thinking that the rumors outside that Xiao Yurong was loved by her father and brother were indeed true.

"You, your sister?" Cui Ci Ning stuttered.

Xiao Yuxie ignored him and strode forward to hold Xiao Yurong's arm. Touching Xiao Yurong's slightly cool skin, he frowned and said, "It's windy outside. Why didn't the servants give you more clothes? Are you cold?"

Xiao Yurong smiled and said, "I'm not cold, brother. Have you forgotten that I also know martial arts?"

"A martial artist is also a human being, and humans can get sick. You have the mind of a child, and your subordinates actually let you do whatever you want?" Xiao Yuxie held Xiao Yurong's hand, "Father said that you are the one who got sick."

Xiao Yurong smiled and shook his head, looking at Cui Qining beside him, "I heard that my brother brought people with him, so I came to see him."

Cui Qining waved his hands quickly and said, "How dare I let the princess come to greet you personally?"

It was very rare to see Cui Ci Ning like this. After all, in her previous life, Cui Ci Ning disliked her the first time he saw her, and later he even called her a pink skeleton and a femme fatale.

You like this kind of gentle girl, right? Xiao Yurong sneered in her heart, haha, screw him, she must make Cui Qining regret it!
