Fingers of crossing

Jiang Ningzui still remembered the unprecedentedly luxurious ball on the ship before the accident.

She has never liked to be lively, so naturally she has no plans to go to the banquet, but her mother said that this is the first step for her to take over the family business, and she should learn to deal with and promise on her own.If it weren't for the shipwreck accident at the end of the ball, this night would have been really ordinary.

Thinking about it, Jiang Ningzui suddenly felt clothes covering her shoulders. She turned her head and saw Qingfu putting on a fox-fur coat thoughtfully for her, and said in a low voice: "It's cold in the middle of winter, my mother is careful to catch a cold."

Jiang Ning was drunk, but she didn't speak. She just stared at herself in the mirror on the dressing table in front of her, silently lost in thought.

I am not your princess.

Jiang Ningzui really wanted to correct her like this, but probably no one would believe her if she said it.She was silent, looking at the face in the mirror that was [-]% similar to her own, she only felt absurd and weird for a while.

If she hadn't looked at the face in the mirror in front of her, maybe she still couldn't accept this sudden time travel.The person in the mirror is probably the real princess in their mouths, but now she has transmigrated into this person's body, not only being forced to accept another person's appearance, but also her life with an unpredictable future.

"Don't worry, ma'am, even the imperial physician said just now that you were probably frightened when you fell into the water before, which caused the temporary amnesia. After a few days when you calm down, you will remember it naturally." Qingfu Naturally, she doesn't know what Jiang Ningzui can't say at the moment, so she softly said considerately: "The imperial doctor told you that your body is still very weak, so I'd better help you to bed and rest."

How could it be possible to think of it?Jiang Ningzui looked at herself in the mirror speechless, feeling helpless, she was afraid that she would never be able to rely on time to think of anything about this princess in her life.

Jiang Ningzui didn't move, but asked coolly: "Qingfu, how long have I been unconscious since I fell into the water?"

Qingfu thought for a while, and replied: "If you want to answer your mother, you have been in a coma for two days."

Jiang Ning was drunk when she heard the words, and frowned: "Then why did I only see the imperial doctor and you guys when I came and went in the palace in the past few days when I woke up?"

"Your Majesty probably doesn't remember. The Crown Prince is out of the city to supervise the training of recruits in person. I will receive the news that you wake up, and I will probably leave for the palace soon." Qing Fu thought for a while, and continued: "The Queen's Majesty, too. After hearing the news of your waking up, I hereby grant you that you don’t have to go to her place to pay her respects for the next few days, and we will discuss everything after your recovery.”

"What about the emperor?"

"Why doesn't your empress remember these things? The emperor passed away three years ago. At that time, you were still in the general's mansion and you were not married into the palace."

Jiang Ningzui silently sorted out Qingfu's words in her mind, and then became more puzzled: "If that's the case, why hasn't the crown prince ascended the throne for three years?"

"Ah!" Qingfu couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice when she heard the words, then she looked around in a panic, then lowered her head and said, "You must never say this, Niang Niang, you must remember, this sentence You can't say something in front of outsiders, let alone in front of the prince." As she spoke, as if she was afraid that Jiang Ningzui would ask something serious again, Qing Fu couldn't help but bend over to Jiang Ningzui's ear, The voice trembled slightly with the tension, "This is a big taboo in the palace, no one should mention it, but if you mention it, you will lose your head. Empress, you must keep it in your heart..."

What she said was really weird, and the doubts in Jiang Ningzui's heart became deeper and deeper.She quietly looked at Qingfu through the rhombic mirror for a while, and found that the solemn warning expression on her face did not seem to be fake, and she realized that this might not be an issue that could be brought to the table for discussion.

It has been three years since the emperor passed away, but the prince has yet to ascend the throne.No matter how you think about it, this matter is strange, even too unreasonable.

The atmosphere became cold all of a sudden, Jiang Ningzui did not continue the topic just now, but changed the topic and said: "I still can't remember anything, why don't you say something about me, maybe I will remember. "

"Your Majesty's words are really embarrassing for the servant. The servant is just a little maid, how dare she put on airs in front of the Crown Princess?" Qingfu said, lowered her head and thought hard, and then said: "Your father is The great general that everyone in the country of Yan admires today, the master has been away all year round, and he couldn’t even come back from your big day half a month ago. Madam heard the news that you fell into the river, and she just visited you in the palace a few days ago. Send someone to send the news of your waking up to the General's Mansion, it is estimated that Madam already knows about it by now."

"You said I only got married to the prince half a month ago?" Jiang Ningzui smiled indifferently when she heard the words, and said: "It seems that the relationship between the prince and me is not very good, otherwise why did we get married half a month ago? Did you leave the city immediately to inspect the recruit training?"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ningzui would say such words directly, Qingfu was startled, her face showed embarrassment, and then she smiled softly: "How could it be? No one in the palace knows that you have loved the prince since you were a child , when you learned that you were going to be betrothed to the crown prince, you were happy for quite a while. And the crown prince has loved you very much since he was a child, and his servants have served you by his side since childhood, and they came into the palace with you as a dowry. This is all clearly visible.”

Anyway, it was just someone else's business, and listening to it didn't bring back many memories and feelings. Jiang Ningzui just smiled indifferently, and said a little tiredly: "It's getting late, I want to rest."

"Yes, that servant will fetch water for you to freshen up."

Qingfu led the order to retreat, and the huge palace became more and more cold and quiet.Jiang Ningzui walked to the depths of the palace, while looking up and looking around the palace, the bed was made of high-quality carved sandalwood, exuding a faint fragrance, the bed curtain was made of high-quality fabric, and the silk thread was inlaid into a complex and elegant pattern. pattern.

When the door was pushed open, Jiang Ningzui was standing in front of the bronzing tassel bead curtain at the cabinet, she turned her head and looked over the screen in front of her, vaguely saw a shadow standing in front of the door, but she was not in a hurry walk in.

"who is it?"

Jiang Ningzui asked vigilantly, but the person by the door didn't answer her, but followed her question and slowly walked towards the cabinet.

"I heard you woke up?"

What rang to Jiang Ningzui's ears was an unusually beautiful and charming voice.Jiang Ningzui had never heard such a unique voice. It was clearly a cool voice, even a bit too cold, but it also had a strong laziness in it, tactful and charming.

Jiang Ningzui raised her head following the voice, and found that the woman who spoke had already stood outside the bead curtain, not more than one meter away from herself.The golden bead curtain in front of her was like tassels falling to the ground, covering her face brilliantly, only the flower tinsel between her eyebrows was like plum blossoms blooming on her forehead, red like a ball of flame.

"Huh?" As if she didn't expect Jiang Ningzui's eyes to be so vigilant and cold, the person behind the bead curtain was slightly startled, then she smiled very shallowly and charmingly, stretched out her hand and slowly opened the tassel curtain in front of her, Walking towards Jiang Ningzui. "You look at me like that, and it hurts."

There are three thousand peach blossoms blooming outside the window, but they can't match the face that fell into Jiang Ningzui's eyes at this moment.She was born with a pair of extremely beautiful phoenix eyes, and her long eyelashes are like a pair of butterfly wings ready to fly. The eyes staring at her are enchanting and lazy. There are plum blossoms in the middle of the room, and her lips are smeared with bright red, but they are not unconventional at all, and their beauty is breathtaking.

Noticing that Jiang Ningzui was looking at her silently, she smiled lightly, and her originally lazy face became alluring and bright because of this smile.Her slightly squinted phoenix eyes revealed a natural lazy and charming attitude, but although her smile was beautiful, her brows and eyes were still thin, as if the coldness had reached her bones.

Obviously, there has never been a fragment related to this person in front of her in her memory, but Jiang Ningzui can faintly feel the sense of majesty and danger conveyed from her.Maybe it's from her cold face, maybe it's from her pair of phoenix eyes that never really smiled, or maybe it's from the kindness in her figure slowly approaching her. A sense of oppression.

"Ningzui, I'm asking you something."

As if impatient with Jiang Ningzui's muffled silence, the person in front of her gently reminded her again, but in this sound, Jiang Ningzui not only heard the sexy laziness in that voice, but also Subtle sullenness and coldness.

The person in front of her has already come directly to Jiang Ningzui's side in the space of her speech, and along with the oppressive feeling from that person, it hit Jiang Ningzui's heart. She instinctively avoided the suffocating urgency He suppressed and took a step back, and his body was completely pressed against the carved mahogany bookshelf behind him, there was no way to retreat.

"Presumptuous!" Jiang Ningzui's eyes stared straight at the overly beautiful face in front of her, the coldness on her face deepened, and her tone was also faintly tinged with cold sullenness. "Trespassing into the princess' bedroom is a capital offense."

As if he heard some big joke, the person in front of him sneered softly, and his voice, which was not considered friendly, added a bit of disdain at this moment, "I'm getting more and more courageous, how dare I She puts on the airs of a princess in front of her." As she spoke, she suddenly took a step closer, making the gap between the two of them even more intimate.In such a close distance, Jiang Ningzui can clearly see any delicate makeup on her face, any subtle expression changes. "Also, what is trespassing? I have to come to your bedroom several times every day and every night."

It was obviously an extremely ambiguous word, but when it came out of this person's mouth, it carried a bit of intriguing meaning, it seemed to be a hint, it seemed to be a joke, and more of it seemed to be a kind of contemptuous playfulness.

Ever since she woke up, the court ladies and even the imperial physicians around her have always treated her with respect and respect. Only the person in front of her spoke without humility or respect, and even spoke with disrespect and contempt all the time. , listening to what she said seemed to be close to the Crown Princess, but there was not much friendliness in her words, and she did not take the Crown Princess seriously.If this person is not a noble person who is more noble than her princess, then this person must be crazy.

Jiang Ningzui thought about it, and looked at the person in front of her calmly, her eyes were extremely calm and sly, this is definitely not the calmness and courage that a lunatic can have.

Jiang Ningzui's mind was still hesitating about the other party's identity, her hands had already pinched her chin first, and with a little force from her fingertips, she was forced to follow the force and raise her head, following the man's instructions Looking up at her.

"You really don't remember anything?" The person who couldn't grasp her emotions from just now until now, had a serious expression in her eyes until this moment. "There are only you and me here, Ning Zui, you don't need to hide it from me."

Jiang Ningzui stared at the person's face indifferently, stretched out her hand and slapped the hand that was holding her away, and said with disgust, "I don't know you." Jiang Ningzui said, her eyes slowly swept to Outside the door, he said: "If you continue to be so rude, I will call someone."

"Call someone?" The seriousness in the man's eyes was fleeting, replaced by a narrow and nasty smile, "Do you need me to help you?"

No matter how calm a person is, hearing such rogue words now will inevitably fall short. Jiang Ningzui looked up at the person in front of her in astonishment, but she turned around first, and called out to the gate of the palace. : "Come in."

Qingfu and Luhe, who had been guarding the door all this time, hurried in when they heard the sound. Unfortunately, after they came in, they just glanced at Jiang Ningzui who was in front of the bookshelf in a hurry. They turned around abruptly, knelt down to the people around Jiang Ningzui in unison, and hurriedly bowed their heads and said, "My servant pays homage to the Eldest Princess."

...the eldest princess?

Jiang Ningzui's breathing was stagnant, and she looked towards the direction where Qingfu and the others were kneeling, and saw that the man was looking at her with a half-smile, with a lazy and unpredictable look on his brows and eyes , like a playful inquiry.

Looking at the group of servants kneeling on the ground, the eldest princess must be a ruthless character.Jiang Ningzui thought resignedly, yes, dared to break into her palace without authorization, and said such disrespectful words, it seems that the eldest princess must not have taken her as a crown princess seriously.I don't know which of the two crimes of speaking rudely to the crown princess and offending the eldest princess is more serious in the laws of Yan country.

In all the scenarios, no matter how Jiang Ningzui thought about it, she seemed to have just survived a catastrophe at sea, and now she might die again.She glanced over the crowd of servants to the Eldest Princess who was smiling all the way at her, only to feel that there were countless murderous intentions and dangers hidden in this hypocritical smile.

Everyone in the palace breathed lightly, changing with the emotions of the eldest princess. When Jiang Ningzui realized this, the eldest princess who took everyone's breath just brushed the clothes on her body indifferently. rose-colored gauze, and retreated to a chair beside her.She rested her chin lightly with her left hand, and those pitch-black phoenix eyes were fixed on Jiang Ningzui, with an intriguing light shining in them.

"It seems that this fall was worth it. Going for a dip in the river really inspired your courage."
