Inferior dominance

Fortunately, not long after, Ji Xiao sent a letter, saying that although the arsonist was not found out, but fortunately, there were no casualties in the Dun Palace. Throat, can no longer speak and at the same time also looks a little depressed.

In fact, I don't need Ji Xiao to tell me that the one who set the fire this time should be the elder brother's subordinates. "m" "'f" "x" "y"%

What is absurd is that after this incident, many people began to believe that the "Queen of Ran's family" was auspicious.

"Mr. Feng Shui has calculated that the land where the Dun Wang Mansion is located is the place where evil spirits and raging fires gather. I have always wondered why nothing happened in that place for so long."

"As soon as he left the Dunwang Mansion, the Dunwang Mansion became very angry. Maybe it was because of his presence that he kept suppressing the anger in that place."

"So the crown prince is blessed. Earlier, he said that the emperor didn't plan to pass on the throne to him... Now it seems that it is him, isn't it?"

In order not to be discovered, I would change to another inn to rest every three to five days after leaving the city. During this period, I kept communicating with Ji Xiao through letters, exchanging information and ideas we knew, and discussing the strange things that happened these days. Change, I "m" "'f" "x" "y"% 攉木哥哥奶 times we finally got the following explanation——

The most important question is how did the emperor suddenly know his true identity when Ji Xiao didn't take the initiative to recognize his relatives?

Today's fourth prince has not been given up for committing crimes like Mengwai. We guess this is because the prince failed to reach an accomplice with Ji Xiao in this dream, so it is impossible to fundamentally solve "Lan Auntie" is by far the most "favored" woman by the emperor's side.

The imprisoning of the fourth prince will largely arouse the conflict between Aunt Lan and the prince. She knows that if the prince succeeds to the throne, the mother and son will not have good results. So she reported the "disloyal" "Ms. Lin", and pointed out the fault of the prince who had been hiding the matter all the year round (it was confirmed through the plot in the book that the prince was indeed in charge of related matters under the order of the emperor), taking advantage of the emperor He released the fourth prince when he felt that he had no sons to trust.

After the fourth prince was sent out, he would naturally start to fight against the prince. He cooperated with the emperor to thoroughly investigate the matters related to the emperor's heir from the matter of the fifth sister, and thus found out that there was such a person as Ji Xiao.

In this way, it's no wonder why the elder brother focused on attacking Aunt Lan in his previous life. Her existence was indeed a huge threat to him.

And now why didn't the emperor blame his eldest brother like he did in his previous life?One is because "Aunt Lan" did not have an accident, and the other is because there is no direct evidence to prove that Ji Xiao's year-round homelessness is related to the prince.

Outside Mengmeng, because of Ji Xiao's participation, at the end of the fight, only Ji Xiao was left as a candidate for the successor of the Yu family.

But now, there are still three princes, four princes, and Ji Xiao.

The identities of the descendants of the Ran family were probably also investigated through the "five princess style".

It has to be said that the prince's move of marrying the "descendant of the Ran family" was completely correct in theory.

But now I just hope that nothing will happen to Ji Xiao, because at this juncture of the emperor's illness, it must not be a good thing to be suddenly recognized as the prince.

In the second month when I was away from the capital, finally, another message came from Ji Xiao's end.

Knowing that he has been assisting the emperor these days, and the emperor's health is getting worse and worse, Ji Xiao said that he has sufficient evidence to prove that all this was done by the prince, and he asked me to wait...wait until he finds sufficient evidence Evidence, it will be able to--

How can it be?Be the emperor?I think.

Although under the persecution of the prince, this seems to be the only choice Ji Xiao faces, but sometimes I can't help but think, if this is the case, what is the difference between Dreamland?Oh no, maybe that's fine, at least in this illusory world, the third brother, fifth sister, and Dong Siyuan are all fine.

It's just that if Ji Xiao succeeds, he will definitely not let the prince go.

Although I can hypnotize myself, the prince in this dream is not the big brother who grew up with me. We only met a few times, and we didn't even say a word of affection.

Oh, I forgot to mention that the problem of being extremely itchy every seven days... I have already bought tools and solved it for myself every time. People who can't bear the pain of the body can get satisfaction anyway by doing it themselves, so why not do it?

Ji Xiao is undoubtedly an out-of-shape person. Even in the turbulent court, he still clearly remembers every time when he should relieve the itching. The fan works of "Elder Son and Xiaowan" will be passed on to me accurately. I wrote a letter to complain, but he said:

"Didn't it help you? Don't let me know you didn't think of me when you did that."

Well, this can be regarded as the only adjustment in those days of crisis and fear.

It didn't take too long for the real change to come.

Ji Xiao's letter just arrived in my hand that day. He said that the emperor's health is deteriorating, and he must last for about three months at most. The evidence that the emperor used the slow poison has almost been collected. The bad news is that the emperor still has no plans to set up another reserve, but the prince's side is surprisingly quiet, like a beast dormant in the jungle, waiting for the approach of the prey, and then one fell swoop Take it down.

"If the final person is me, then after clearing all obstacles, I would like to give up the position Zen to your favorite third brother, and let him do this hard work. The whole country is far less easy to take care of than the Yu family. , I am not interested, then we will leave the capital together and live the most peaceful and beautiful life that you have always liked the most."

Normally, after reading it, I would burn the letters sent by Ji Xiao in time, but this one... I don't know why, but I was a little bit reluctant, but in the end I threw it into the stove because I was afraid of being caught. Watching it gradually turn into ashes, I thought, next time I see Ji Xiao, I must tell him:

"I think you've changed. Although I don't know exactly where you changed, but you have changed... Thank you, you are willing to let me know that you still have such a side."

However, the reality is that it likes to give you a blow to the head when you completely let go of your defenses.

I didn't expect to receive the news of the emperor's death three days later.

Although the information released by the court is that the emperor died suddenly due to illness, but I know that the prince must have seen something wrong, so before the emperor made up his mind to set up another heir, he killed him.

It's not that he didn't expect the prince to do this, but he still had hope that, at least, he wouldn't make a decision so quickly.

Although the enthronement of the new emperor can only be carried out after the emperor is buried, it is almost a matter of course-everyone agrees that the next emperor will be the current prince.

Everyone in the inn sighed and said, "After all, the sky has changed." But from the look on their faces, they didn't seem to feel that there was anything unusual about the occurrence of these things.

Only then did I realize that I had been taking it for granted all along.

In the book, it was the son who won every step of the way, and outside the dream, it was Ji Xiao who endured humiliation and won the real power.

I seem to believe that Ji Xiao will defeat the eldest brother and win the final victory. This seems to be an instinct that I take for granted in my subconscious.

For a moment I panicked, and I wondered, have I been wrong all this time?Just as Ji Xiao would not let his eldest brother go after succeeding to the throne, the crown prince would certainly not let go of the eldest son who almost won his throne after he succeeded to the throne.This kind of cognition made me suddenly, and I found that I couldn't accept the fact that Ji Xiao would be punished, as if compared to this prince, the most important thing in my mind is Ji Xiao who has always been by my side.

I panicked for a while, I tried to inquire about the "Second Prince" who had just been adopted by the former emperor, but the news about the "Second Prince" or "Elder Prince" seemed to disappear in an instant, that's right, Now that the eyes of the world are all focused on the emperor who has just passed away and the prince who is about to ascend the throne, where is the time to care about the "second prince"?

It's not that I think anything will happen to Ji Xiao, I always believe in him, he has always been strategizing, everything is in his hands, isn't he?

Unexpectedly, not long after, news came from the capital again, saying that during the emperor's burial, the second prince who had just been claimed was not there?There are rumors that he is actually not the emperor's own flesh and blood, but a liar who used witchcraft to deceive the old emperor!

fraud……

I was sitting in the teahouse, holding the tea cup tremblingly, almost spilling the tea on my fingers.

I never knew that just these rumors about him could affect my mood, appetite, physical and even mental state.

I firmly believe that Ji Xiao will be fine, so I still change hotels every few days as before, lest the prince's people find out, how I hope he can come to this small town to find me as he said in his oath , but I know that he is still in danger in the capital now.

I only hope that my little bookstore can help him, a little bit, even a little bit.

The mighty cavalry arrived at the inn where I was staying on the seventh day after the Emperor's death.

Was it finally found?

Standing up calmly, I didn't even need to be poked on the back to move forward. I looked at the bustling street outside the inn door, and at the carriage parked on the side of the road, which belonged to the royal family, I walked over.

The prince finally came to arrest me.

I think he may have checked the address of his recent letter after forcing Ji Xiao away, and finally found this place.

What will be my fate?Laughing secretly, if I was arrested after the crown prince ascended the throne, would the crime I was charged be the so-called "crime of deceiving the emperor"?

In this dream world, I don't have any special friendship with the prince. If he punished me directly, I wouldn't be surprised at all.

However, what if he wants to use me to lure Ji Xiao out, or force me to reveal Ji Xiao's whereabouts?

It's really shocking that a person like me who has no courage, after realizing these possibilities, suddenly had the idea of ​​​​"It's a big deal to die again".

However, reality often has a certain gap with imagination.

What was waiting for me was not a prison, not a secret room, and no torture, but rather light and delicious meals in the harem and the latest custom-made luxury clothes exclusively for male concubines.

The sedan chair was secretly carried into the palace in the middle of the night when no one was looking, as if he didn't want anyone to find out that someone was tied into the palace.

Yuemo is because of the death of the emperor, and the atmosphere in the entire harem is particularly depressed. The crown prince has not officially ascended the throne, so he still lives in the East Palace, and I am arranged in a wing room inside the East Palace. The servants inside are all well behaved. And silence, I don't ask much, and they never say much.

But no matter how calm I appear on the surface, I am still confused and even confused in my heart. I don't know what the prince wants to do. If I guessed correctly, the little prince should always be treated as a princess. After all, it was "Xiangrui" handpicked by the emperor, and now these maids have started calling me "Princess Concubine".

It's so strange, even if the crown prince secretly moved me to this position when no one was looking, where should the young prince be?

And... Ji Xiao, now that I have left the inn, it is tantamount to losing contact with him. Now there is no news of him in the entire capital, what should I do to...

Those maids said that I was sick, or in other words, the prince "set" me to be sick.

On the day of mourning for the emperor, it would be inappropriate for me as a "princess" not to attend, so I fell seriously ill and fell on the bed weakly all day long.

Since the crown prince asked me to do this, for the sake of my own safety, I decided not to be stupid and went to confront him.

The crown prince came to me the second day after I entered the East Palace.

He knocked on the door first, his voice was very soft and gentle, he called me: "Little Lantern", and he asked me: "Is your health better?"

Xiaodeng... For a moment, it dawned on me that this was a name he often called me outside of a dream.

No, he doesn't belong to the elder brother, he is just the prince who has the consciousness of the elder brother in the dream, he doesn't recognize me like Ji Xiao.

There were no servants in the room at that time, so I could only pretend to be weak, and dragged the "sick body" to open the door for him. When the door was slowly opened, I met his warm brown eyes again. Looking at each other, in an instant, all the psychological defenses I had made in advance collapsed.

My elder brother always looks at me with gentle eyes, even though I can't understand his original appearance, his methods, his cruelty, and the harm he has done to my love.

But his eyes can always bring me into the time when we were children, I believe that his kindness to me is not filled with any impurities, and it seems that he has never done anything to hurt me in the real sense ,there has never been.

Even if I try to convince myself that the prince is not the big brother, the prince is not the big brother, no.

But as long as I think that I have already lost him when I am outside the dream, the lake of my heart will inevitably have ripples.

"Since you are resting on the bed, you can just greet me, so why force yourself to open the door for me?" In my "invitation" to open the door for him, he has already stepped in.

"This courtyard was originally prepared for the princess, are you still used to living in it?" the prince asked.

"The Prince's things are naturally good, there is no reason why you are not used to it." Standing in front of him with a low eyebrow, I dare not sit down, let alone relax, I told myself that this person in front of me is not someone I am familiar with Brother, I can't be sure what he will do, and I can't bet on it.

After a while, I heard the prince's laughter.

"Little lamp." He gently grabbed me and told me to sit down on the edge of the bed with him, "Just sit down, don't be nervous..." He was silent for a moment, "Maybe you think I should be angry. "

"I'm the one who's sorry for the prince." Staring at my knees, my hands were overlapping those of the prince, "The prince should be angry."

Punish me, because I will support Ji Xiao's determination from now on, so I won't feel uneasy if the prince punishes me.

"Actually, I also find it strange." The prince's hand was on the back of my hand as if counting the beat, and lightly lit, "Little lamp, I have never been as good as my appearance. I am a gentle and honest person. I will never tolerate it... But for you, for some reason, I can't feel anything other than helplessness, I just feel that I should bring you back to my side and let you stay well, that's all."

I was stunned, because I knew very well in my heart that my elder brother would not make fun of my own heart. He might tell some jokes and tell some unfounded stories to obscure my feelings.

But he has always been a person who is good at hiding his true feelings deep in his heart, and he rarely confesses his heart to others.

Apart from……

Damn it, why do I have to think of Big Brother at this moment!My eye sockets were involuntarily wet, and I was thinking, what kind of expression will my elder brother show when he knows the news of my death after jumping off the car?Suddenly, I recalled what my elder brother said to me when I chose Ji Xiao in the real dream—"I lost." His eyes seemed to tell me, "Xiao Deng, I don't blame you .”

Tears flowed out unstoppably, in front of the prince, I just let it drip, dripping onto my own knees, dripping onto the back of my overlapping hands with elder brother, making a pattering sound.

"Okay, okay, I told you that I won't do anything to you." The prince gently wiped the tears from my face, "It's you, not a puppet, that's great."

That day, the prince told me a lot.

He said that he didn't know why, he felt very kind when he saw me, as if he knew him beforehand, but the fact is that I never had the chance to meet him when I was a child, which is really strange.

He said that although he planned to marry me out of political considerations and made me a princess, he would not do anything bad on his own initiative without my appeal, even if it seemed It seems to be justifiable.

He asked me if I still had concerns in my heart.

I dare not tell the truth, but it is not easy to lie, because I know that my elder brother can always tell that I am lying, so I just choose to remain silent. Any one of the owls stopped, I know, this is an unreasonable or even embarrassing request for them.

Normally speaking, the prince should have lost his temper and even got angry, and I had planned to do so, but in the end, he just sighed.

"For some reason, there is always a helpless feeling of seeing a silly brother love a bastard." As he said, he gently pinched my cheek, "That's all."

After saying that, he stood up, "In the days before enthronement, you should rest in this mansion."

Unlike Ji Xiao, my eldest brother will not directly threaten me, but I know what he means - don't run around, don't do stupid things, don't cause trouble for my brother and me.

So, I lived in the harem like this, living the life of a "princess".

Because the emperor passed away suddenly, the remaining government affairs are naturally busy. While presiding over the emperor's funeral, the prince had to work overtime to review the memorials. In fact, he didn't have much time to come to me to meet with me.

And there are many people I need to meet every day.

First is the prince's biological mother. She has the same appearance as the elder brother's biological mother, Ms. Song.

With the improvement of the crown prince's status, she has now become a powerful figure in the harem, but she doesn't appear majestic. What's more, what I see in her is her inability to adapt to her current status.

Presumably because of his humble background, even with the support of the prince, he has suffered a lot in the palace these years.

Not as magical as in the Gongdou drama, Ms. Song treated me very well, she even held my hand and told me that the prince rarely has someone he likes so much.

She is much more innocent than the eldest brother of the prince, and after only chatting with her for a short while, she blinked and shed tears: "I don't know, whether it is considered as having survived now."

Her experience is exactly the same as Ms. Song's in Dreamland, not only because of her background, but also because she is the shameful proof that the emperor misunderstood his first love, so even after giving birth to the eldest son, she has never been favored very much.

The position that is not very obvious in modern times is so bloody and clear in ancient times. Although she is the mother of the crown prince, the crown prince was sent to foster care under Aunt Lan (Concubine Lan). Her parents and sons were crowned princes, and she was still subservient to Concubine Lan.

As soon as we talked about the prince, she could pull me to tell a lot. When I returned to the palace, it was already late at night. I went back to the bedroom, put out the candles, went back to bed, and recalled what I saw in the palace these days What I heard, for a while, I had an extremely tangled emotion.

——If Ji Xiao successfully succeeds to the throne, what about a good person like Ms. Song?

And, Ji Xiao... Where is he now?

It's not that I didn't ask the palace people about him. Some people said he was missing, some people said he was dead, and many people even insisted that he was a liar. Whenever this happened, I couldn't help but blame my elder brother again.

After all, they are still half-brothers, so why do they keep embarrassing each other so endlessly?

Summer nights are always extraordinarily hot, because I am thinking about things, and it is always inevitable at night. Sometimes I fall asleep in a daze, but wake up in a daze when I hear some noise.

Feeling that someone was playing with my body, I shrank instinctively, and then I seemed to hear the disdainful sound of "tsk", my back seemed to be roasted by a stove, and for a moment I seemed to have returned to the place I was with. Those days when Ji Xiao slept together.

Ji Xiao...

Due to the overheated temperature and abnormal touch, I finally couldn't help but scream.

I thought I was dreaming, but in the next second, my hand on the mattress was covered by a warm force.

"It's quite comfortable to be a princess, you." Ji Xiao's voice rang in my ears, accompanied by the pain of him biting my neck, "Is it because I don't come here, you forget your husband Who is it?"

piss off!

I would like to believe that this is an absurd dream.

This is the East Palace, no matter how you say it is impossible... No matter how courageous Ji Xiao is, it is impossible...

"What are you thinking about?" The ruthless force almost made me cry out in pain, but the person behind me covered my mouth the next moment , "Now you know how to call? If you don't want to be discovered by the guards outside the door, just be quiet."

You could tell he was angry.

Also, why should he not be angry?If I am angry too.

Lie Ye

I'm very sorry, I accidentally copied and pasted a mistake when I was sorting out the manuscript last night, and I put the same chapter into the same chapter. It's hard to make up [-] words, so I can only put the next chapter first... I am so sorry.
