To catch a thief, to catch a phoenix first

After returning from the lecture, Shi Huaiwen couldn't help thinking about the poems taught by the Taifu in his heart, trying to figure out the deep meaning in them.As soon as he stepped into the Qixia Palace, he saw three little heads lying neatly by the wooden window, concentrating on watching the beautiful sunset, deliberately lowering their voices, discussing something in a low voice.

Young Master Jingui took his steps lightly, and quietly approached behind them, wanting to spy on them.Thinking that this behavior is not very gentlemanly, he secretly decided in his heart, just listen for a while, and it will be fine for a while.

"The queen mother told my elder brother that if the sunset glow turns orange, it will probably rain tomorrow."

There was a bit of coldness in the immature voice, it was Shaoyang.Shi Huaiwen had a sore nose for no reason, Shaoyang lost his mother when he was young, even if he was loved by his father and emperor, he couldn't make up for it.He is nine years older than her, so it can be said that he has watched her grow up, and he is also a teacher and brother, taking care of her a lot. However, he understands that no one can take her place as the queen mother.

"Your Highness the Seventh Prince is really knowledgeable and knowledgeable. If you want to attend a class tomorrow, Ah Qing will prepare an umbrella for you."

"But... the queen mother only told my brother, not me. Ah Qing, Xiao Jiu, we must keep this a secret. If the queen mother finds out, she will be unhappy."

The voice suddenly became much lower.

Shi Yuanyuan's head moved slightly, she seemed to tilt her head, and said suspiciously: "Yuanyuan heard from the palace people that the queen empress left with the immortals in the sky. Sister Seventh Emperor, the empress will not know." For the children , the matter of life and death, yin and yang, is really too difficult to explain clearly.Therefore, many palace people couldn't explain it, so they told them that they followed the immortals back to the Heavenly Palace one after another.

Children don't know how to avoid these things, they only know that when they have doubts, they have to speak out and question one or two things.Shi Xianyu was not angry, just kept silent for a moment, and said stubbornly: "...she will come back." The apex of his heart throbbed suddenly, his warm eyes were stained with pain, Shi Huaiwen couldn't control his own steps, he just took a step forward, juggling He seemed to take out a paper cricket from his sleeve, and said with a smile, "Shaoyang, come back and see what this is?"

Hearing this, the three little heads turned around and stared at the gadget in his hand in unison, making his fingertips feel hot.Shi Xianyu rested his chin in one hand, with no expression on his face, he only glanced sideways, and said indifferently: "Bug." After finishing speaking, he turned back to look at the sunset.

Zuo Qingyun's face turned pale, she covered her mouth to hold back her exclamation, and faltered for a long time without saying anything.On the contrary, Shi Yuanyuan showed a hint of curiosity, and ran to his side, tiptoeing to get the novel gadget, but she couldn't reach her, she immediately pursed her mouth, like a wronged little daughter-in-law Pan: "Brother Emperor, Yuanyuan wants to play... can I?"

Seeing tears welling up in her round purple eyes, Shi Huaiwen hastily handed the paper cricket to her, smiled gently, and coaxed the baby again: "Of course. Xiaojiu wants to do anything, just tell Big Brother." Yes. This little thing is made of paper, so don't be afraid." Zuo Qingyun was not so afraid when he heard it was made of paper, and put down the little hand that had just covered his mouth tightly, and stretched out his index finger to touch it.

Perhaps because she didn't like being touched by others, Shi Yuanyuan hid the paper cricket in her arms, stepped back a few steps, and stared at Zuo Qingyun warily, as if a cub protecting food had met a mountain A ferocious beast, with a hint of uneasiness in its hostility.

Zuo Qingyun was born in a scholarly family, even though she is a concubine, she can be regarded as a son of a famous family, she couldn't keep her face from hiding like this, her complexion suddenly became very bad, and when she was about to have a fit, she was caught by Shi Xianyu. Interrupted first: "Xiao Jiu, it shouldn't be like this."

I don't know when she noticed this way, her exquisite facial features were stained with displeasure, Shi Yuanyuan was afraid that she would get angry, and she didn't want to hand over the things, so she just bit her lip and said in a pitiful trembling voice: "Sister Ah Qing doesn't like Me, it's not good for me, I don't want to play this with her. "

Zuo Qingyun glared back viciously, gritted her teeth and said, "Hmph, don't talk about whether you like it or not, you don't like everyone! I don't care about it!"

Amused by their childish remarks, the corners of Shi Huaiwen's lips rose slightly, and Shi Huaiwen was about to take out some other small things from his sleeves to make them happy, but Shi Xianyu's face was solemn: "Nonsense, how could Ah Qing not like you? "However, Zuo Qingyun said that I don't like this little thing all over her face.

There was nothing to do with these two imperial sisters, so Shi Huaiwen brought two more volumes, all of which were folk tales.Shi Xianyu's eyes lit up, but he didn't take it, but turned his head away, waiting for him to give it to her.Shi Huaiwen couldn't help laughing, and said solemnly: "Everyone has a share, you are not allowed to grab it. Shaoyang, you can come with me to Zichen Hall to visit the father later. The father has not seen you for several days, and I miss you very much."

"Yes, brother."

Emperor Xuan hadn't recovered from his long illness at this time, and he was already bedridden. The disgruntled palace people said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would ascend the throne.Shi Yuanyuan didn't understand these things, so she raised her head innocently and stared at him: "Brother Emperor, everyone says you can be emperor, what are you going to do when you become emperor?"

In her opinion, there are many benefits to being an emperor. With so many people around her father, the emperor will definitely not be lonely.With rich clothes and fine food, and no lack of palace servants to serve, if you are bullied, you can be bullied back. Life must be extremely happy.When she asked about this, she looked quite yearning, and she couldn't hide her desire for imperial power at all.

The soft golden light shone on that handsome face, and the young man blushed quietly, but his eyes were filled with hope: "Xiao Jiu, don't talk nonsense. I just need to stay by Father's side and share his worries, that's enough. The people have been suffering from wars for many years, and I was thinking about how to fight back so that Annan would not dare to commit another crime."

Talking about the ambitions of the government, the young man's eyes seemed to be full of stars, and he inevitably talked too much: "The virtuous people were not reused by the father because of the views of the family. I must persuade the father to know people and do them well, so that they can show their ambitions." After finishing speaking, he was a little regretful again, scratching his head in embarrassment, his eyes full of apology.

Except for Shi Xianyu, who is a master of power, the other two people don't understand the affairs of the court, how can they understand what he means?Unexpectedly, he continued to chatter, leaving them with no answer: "I was negligent, I'm really sorry."

Who knows, Shi Yuanyuan seemed to understand a little bit, she bit her lips tightly, her eyes were red, and she kept shaking her head: "No, what Brother Da Huang said is very good, really good! Xiao Jiu, Xiao Jiu hopes that Brother Da Huang What you say can, can come true." He paused from time to time while speaking, sucking his nose, not wanting to shed tears easily.

Zuo Qingyun also showed admiration on her face, and said bluntly: "What His Royal Highness wishes is our wish. To serve the court, there should be no distinction between high and low." She has the blood of common people, unless A Niang Be righted, otherwise you will have to live in the shadow of concubine for the rest of your life.Therefore, I can better understand his ambition.

The more broken the ritual and music, the more it can highlight the despicable and ugly side of human nature.The elders rely on the old to sell the old, the young disrespect their teachers, the descendants pretend to be noble, and the common people complain about injustice.Civil and military officials don't know how to be prepared for danger in times of peace, but only know how to receive more money, which causes the hearts of the people everywhere to drop.To bully others by taking advantage of one's power, or to swallow one's breath, is a fallacy parasitic in the world.And the best way to eliminate all sorrows is to reform the government.

Easier said than done?Even if it is not easy, he still has to do everything to try.Shi Xianyu had a rare look in his eyes, and echoed: "I also think that brother's idea is very good." Hearing this, Shi Huaiwen's heart warmed up, and he promised again and again that he would bring some good things to the two next time, and then led her to the Zichen Palace up.

……

As everyone knows, every time a person sees one side, there will be one less side in this life.In the 21st year of Jianning, Shi Xianyu was only 12 years old. Shi Huaiwen personally conquered Annan, but died in this battle.Instead of dying in battle, he was assassinated.The initial attack on Annan ended in defeat.The Hong family had to compensate more property, and had to pay tribute every year, and the people all over the country felt resentful.

Whether it is an official or a royal family, they are all heartbroken for their own interests. When mentioning His Highness the Crown Prince, they always "spit" and dismiss it as if they have never mentioned it.The people didn't know that he had great ambitions, and they also ridiculed him as a disaster, with no other skills, and he assumed the position of general for nothing, but made them pay more taxes.

Who has a sweet voice, folds a branch of winter plum, and has a slightly romantic eyebrow: "When the spring peaches are in full bloom, it will be the time for me to return. Shaoyang, Xiaojiu, you are not allowed to cause trouble. Annan is skillful, and the mask is well made , when I return from victory, I will bring you some beautifully crafted masks for fun."

Whoever is high-spirited is whoever breaks his promise.

No one knew his great ambitions during his life, but after his death, all sentient beings spit on him for being passionate.What is salvation, what is chivalry?Shi Xianyu really didn't understand, all she knew was that her elder brother had gone, and her father secretly told her that if she wanted to become a ruthless emperor, she would rather betray those around her than let others bully her.

She understood that without the royal family, no one would obey her anymore.

Except for Shi Yuanyuan, who had been following her all the time and kept talking about the Seventh Sister, there was no one in the crowd who could be trusted.Three years later, Emperor Xuan died, unknowingly in his sleep.He had already established a will, a decree, and the seven princesses of the past became the emperor of the dynasty.

As for Shi Yuanyuan, she was bestowed with a character and made an idle eldest princess.

……

She wanted to be content with Tianming, but unfortunately Tianming never wanted to help her.Of the four people in the past, one was wiped out, the other was aloof, and the relationship was no longer what it used to be.The purple-clothed girl regained consciousness from her memory and pulled away her thoughts. A snow butterfly flew in from the window at some point and was resting at her fingertips.

She lost her mind and murmured: "Brother Big Emperor, Sister Seventh Emperor... Heh." From the beginning to the end, she was just an outsider, how had she ever integrated into them?In front of the imperial power, Shi Xianyu always regarded her as a pawn, except for Shi Hongyi, the next one would be her turn.

Of course there is no reason to sit still.

"Things like power still have to be held in your own hands. Ah Yue, don't you think so?"

It was clearly Xue Yueyue who taught her what it means to be pregnant with a jade, and what is the law of the jungle. Now, Xue Yueyue wants to leave her, leaving her alone in the endless hell.It's time to end this rare show of sisterly love.
