The forbidden love between a ghost and a villain

The high palace walls and red bricks and tiles separate Princess Yunmeng and Li Chengze into two different worlds.

Inside the palace walls is Princess Yunmeng’s magnificent bedroom, and outside the palace walls is the guard camp where Li Chengze is stationed.

There seemed to be an insurmountable gap between them.

Previously, Princess Yunmeng was assassinated on her way to get married, causing the wedding to miss the auspicious time.

According to the divination of the imperial master, September three years later was finally decided as the best auspicious day.

Thus, Princess Yunmeng began her long life of waiting to get married in this deep palace.

Li Chengze was worried about Princess Yunmeng, so he resolutely chose to stay in the imperial guard camp.

He knew that only in this way could he be closer to her.

Only then can he appear by her side at the first time when she needs him.

Princess Yunmeng lived deep in the palace and could only look at the sky outside through the high palace walls every day.

She often thought of the ups and downs they had experienced together.

I remember the sunrises and sunsets they watched together, and the stars in the sky they counted together.

The free and easy life of those six months has now become her best memory.

Three years passed by like a flash.

Three years later in May, Princess Yunmeng and Li Chengze finally met again at the state banquet of Funan Kingdom.

Although they only glanced at each other from a distance, the longing in their eyes could not be concealed.

Li Chengze's gaze passed through the crowd and fell on Princess Yunmeng.

In three years, Princess Yunmeng has transformed from a young girl into a graceful beauty.

Her skin is whiter than snow, her features are picturesque, and she exudes a noble and elegant temperament in every move.

He saw that she was wearing gorgeous court attire, but she still couldn't hide the sadness between her brows.

His heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, causing waves of pain.

Princess Yunmeng also saw Li Chengze. She tried hard to control her emotions and not let the tears flow down her eyes.

She knew that their identities and situations had separated them by a huge distance.

This scene was seen by Nanny Wu, who had always been with Princess Yunmeng.

She sighed softly and reminded at the right time:

"Princess, please pay attention to your etiquette."

Nanny Wu's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on Princess Yunmeng's heart.

She slowly withdrew her gaze, lowered her head, and concealed her inner sadness.

Li Chengze looked at Princess Yunmeng's lonely figure, his eyes full of worry and his heart filled with sadness.

The night is deep and the palace is silent.

In the bedroom, Princess Yunmeng tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

The wedding date is approaching, and today's meeting makes her miss Li Chengze even more intense.

It was like a vine wrapped around her heart, making it hard for her to breathe.

Suddenly, a slight noise broke the silence of the night.

Princess Yunmeng opened her eyes alertly, and in the dim moonlight, she saw a dark shadow approaching quietly.

She was startled and almost screamed.

"Shh..."

A familiar voice sounded in her ears, and Princess Yunmeng's heart skipped a beat.

With the help of moonlight, she saw the person clearly - it was Li Chengze, whom she had been thinking about day and night.

In three years, Li Chengze not only knew the terrain of the Funan Palace like the back of his hand, but also improved his martial arts.

He avoided the heavy guards and quietly came to Princess Yunmeng's bedroom.

Surprise, excitement, worry and other complex emotions suddenly surged in my heart.

Princess Yunmeng could no longer suppress her inner emotions and threw herself into Li Chengze's arms.

"Chengze, it's really you!"

She hugged him tightly, afraid that it was just a dream.

Li Chengze hugged her gently. It had been three years.

He finally hugged the person he thought about day and night.

Feeling her body temperature, my heart was filled with tenderness and sweetness.

"It's me, Meng'er, I'm here to see you."

The sound of guards' footsteps approached from afar, breaking the brief silence in the bedroom.

"who?!"

A loud shout was heard outside the hall, followed by the sound of guards knocking on the door.

"Princess, princess..."

Princess Yunmeng's heart was in her throat. She pushed Li Chengze away.

"Chengze, hurry up and leave!"

Li Chengze looked at her deeply, his eyes full of reluctance and worry.

"Meng'er, I have everything planned out, wait for me!"

After saying that, his figure flashed and disappeared into the night.

Yun Meng forced herself to remain calm and spoke lazily, with a hint of displeasure at being interrupted:

"What's the matter? It's the middle of the night and you're disturbing my rest."

The guard's voice trembled a little, with a hint of fear:

"Princess, we just saw a thief sneak into the bedroom..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the screams of the palace maids from the west courtyard:

"Help! There's an assassin! Help!"

The guards immediately became alert, drew their swords, and ran towards the west yard.

Another guard quickly said, "Princess, please forgive me!"

Yunmeng frowned, as if her sweet dream had been disturbed by this sudden change.

She whispered, "Quickly capture the assassin and ensure the safety of the palace."

At the same time, the lights in the imperial study of the Funan Palace were brightly lit.

The Imperial Master was wearing a black robe, holding a whisk, and was talking in a low voice with the king.

"Your Majesty, the magic circle has been completed. There is no need to wait any longer. We can begin the blood exchange ceremony in three days."

When the king heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"Oh? Imperial Master, we don't have to wait for an auspicious time?"

The Imperial Master nodded slightly, "That's right. I observed the celestial phenomena at night.

I discovered that the Red Luan star was moving, and I was afraid that heresy would arise.

The ceremony needs to be done as soon as possible to avoid any further complications."

It turns out that the reason why Princess Yunmeng became a princess of peace was not for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

Instead, the fate predicted by the national teacher at the beginning pointed to the sixteenth princess of the Shang Dynasty.

If you want to prolong your life, Princess Yunmeng's blood is the right answer.

The next morning, golden sunlight filled the palace.

Red silk flutters, palace lanterns hang high, and lights and decorations are everywhere.

It was a joyous and lively scene.

The palace maids and eunuchs came and went, busy arranging various decorations needed for the wedding, their faces filled with joyful smiles.

Li Chengze was wearing casual clothes and blending into the crowd.

Looking at this busy scene, I felt confused.

He stopped a eunuch who was carrying a flower pot and asked curiously:

"Eunuch, is there some kind of ceremony going on? It's so grand."

The eunuch put down the flower pot in his hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile:

"His Majesty the Emperor is going to marry Princess Yunmeng!"

Li Chengze was shocked when he heard this and asked in disbelief:

"Isn't the wedding scheduled for September? It's only May now?"

The eunuch waved his hand and said mysteriously:

"Well, you don't know this, right? The imperial decree was issued this morning.

They said they would get married in two days, and that it was to bring good luck!"

Li Chengze's heart was filled with alarm.

I originally planned to take Princess Yunmeng out of the palace in the next few days.

It now seems that the three-year plan has to be brought forward.

A wedding for good luck? There must be something fishy going on! He must find out the truth as soon as possible.

Late at night, when everyone was asleep, Li Chengze once again sneaked into Princess Yunmeng's bedroom.

However, the security tonight was much tighter than usual, with the number of guards being ten times that of usual days!

This made Li Chengze feel very confused.

Could it be that the emperor has noticed something?

Don't act rashly.
