The moonlight is like water, and the stars are like silver.

Mei Niang raised her eyes and looked at the silver glow in the sky, and she didn't know why for a while.

Slowly, she turned her head and looked at the brightly lit inner sanctum.

She knew that there was someone waiting for her inside, and that person was also the man she had been waiting for all her life.

But why......

Why did she feel that she was so far away from him that she was just a moment?

Lowering her eyes, for a long time, she looked up again, sighed softly, and lowered her eyes again.

After a while, she sighed and shook her head, turned around slowly, and was about to walk back to the hall, when she looked up, she saw Li Zhi dressed in plain clothes, standing with his hands in his hands.

With such an indifferent face and such calm eyes, they all seemed to tell her one thing:

He's always been here, never left.

Slowly, her eyes softened, and she slowly stepped forward, two steps, three steps.

Eventually, stop in front of him, look up, and look at him.

He just looked at her and was silent for a moment.

After a long time, he said:

"When you came back to me for the second time, I thought I had embraced you in my arms and never left you."

Mei Niang looked at him without blinking, extremely calm.

Li Zhi said softly:

"But then I found out that it wasn't......

Even if I hold you in my arms, even if I have your whole love......

But you won't stay with me forever.

Sooner or later, one day you will leave me, or I will leave you.

So......

I really care, I care about every thing, every memory left between you and me.

It was all these years, step by step, that I had become my flesh, my bones, my marrow, and my heart.

It's you......

Even you can't destroy them. ”

Mei Niang lowered her head, her eyes were slightly ashamed:

"I'm sorry, it's Mei Niang who is too willful.

But Mei Niang really doesn't want to ......"

She looked up at him:

"I really don't want to watch Jiro always think about those things when he looks at me.

Mei Niang is right next to you, isn't she?

Or one day, birth, old age, sickness and death, will eventually separate us, but if Mei Niang is there for a day, Jiro will always live in Mei Niang's heart.

Isn't Jiro? ”

Li Zhi looked at her for a while before he said softly:

"Yes, but I'm a very greedy person, so from the very beginning, I won't be able to afford to lose a single bit of you, your memory......

Nor can it.

Because for me, that's all the traces of the past that have made Li Zhi what he is today.

I said, it's my flesh, my bones, my marrow, my heart.

If I cut the flesh and remove the bones, I will lose my heart......

So how can I still be alive? ”

Mei Niang didn't know how to answer for a while.

Fortunately, Li Zhiben didn't want her to answer, and after only a moment, he sighed lightly and said lightly:

"There's always a reason why you do this?

Or maybe in a word? ”

Mei Niang closed her lips tightly and said after a long time:

"This is the only thing that everyone in the palace knows.

Only by bringing up the old things again can the Wang family believe that Zhilang is already ruthless, and he will be determined to Zhilang.

Only when the Wang family is determined to be satisfied with Zhilang, Mei Niang can get rid of it.

And only when the Wang family leaves, Mei Niang can feel at ease...... In order to be able to Anxin Jiro's little mercy, there will never be a chance to become a child lover. ”

Li Zhi's eyes widened, and he shook his head again:

"That's it...... Was......

Well, why do you want to split it in two? ”

"The chrysanthemum hand cage is divided into two and has another purpose. First, it was to make the Wang family die, and second, it was a small temptation from Mei Niang...... Unfortunately, it seems that this temptation is useless. ”

Mei Niang sighed lightly, her eyes were confused and hesitant:

"Or, it has already achieved its proper role, but Mei Niang's judgment is just wrong."

Li Zhi was stunned, looked at her, and said softly:

"What the hell are you talking about?"

“…… Under the nest, what about the eggs? If there are eggs and heavy stones are struck, how can they be protected alone? ”

After Mei Niang looked at this sentence, her face was confused at first, and her eyes immediately widened, and she looked at Mei Niang with a shocked face.

When he opened his mouth, he couldn't say anything after all, he just turned around suddenly, wanting to shout, but he couldn't shout after all.

Next.

Afternoon.

Inside the Great Treasure Hall.

In the inner bed, Mei Niang looked at Minghe who was slowly entering, and said lightly:

"But it's all arranged?"

"Back to my mother's words, it's already arranged."

Mei Niang nodded and said lightly:

"Do you think it's unreasonable for me to do this?"

"The mother's arrangement has its own deep meaning."

Minghe just whispered back.

Mei Niang looked at him, but didn't say anything anymore, just turned around, looked ahead, took a deep breath, and spit out a long breath. After a while, he said lightly:

"What happened to your sister Wen Niang's side?"

“…… Left, however, it's been half a day. ”

Mei Niang's eyes drooped:

"Then let's watch it a little closer. Seize the opportunity to start, don't miss it. ”

"Yes."

After a light response, Minghe hurried down, leaving Mei Niang alone in place, looking ahead in a daze.

……

Tang Yonghui in September of the fifth year.

Chang'an, Taiji Palace.

In the Imperial Palace.

The night is like water.

Ryan stood calmly in the courtyard, watching the stars in the sky.

It took him a moment before he let out a sigh of relief, and his eyes reflected a little starlight or water, revealing a happy smile.

Then, he stretched out his hand, inserted the white jade whisk into the back of his waist, took off the high hat, untied the hosta, and his black hair was messy in the wind in an instant.

What is surprising is that in this black hair, there are faint traces of silver threads mixed in it.

Ryan didn't care, just silently took out a slender ribbon from his waist, tied his hair behind his back, tied a ribbon between his forehead, and slowly, slowly, walked into the apse room.

On the couch, a woman lay peacefully, covered from head to toe in a fine silver veil.

With her hands folded over her chest, she felt as if she was asleep. has long black hair, a beautiful face, and a favorite goose yellow skirt before his death......

Even the two small pear vortices that always loomed when she smiled looked very lovely at the moment.

Ryan glanced at her, just one glance, as if he had seen something that scared him, and he couldn't bear to look at it. But for a moment, he turned back and continued to look at her, looking at the familiar face shrouded in silver veil.

With a faint smile, he sighed and said:

"You're still ahead of me......

In the end, I couldn't listen to what I said from the bottom of my heart, so I left.

It's good, it's good. ”

He shook his head and continued to laugh, his gaze mild:

"That's a good ending for you.

If you continue to follow me, follow the mother......"

He paused, then chuckled:

"I'm afraid that after knowing everything, I'm going to be even more sad?"

Lowering his eyes, he smiled faintly, raised his eyes, his eyes were gentle, slowly walked to the couch, bent his knees, bowed his waist, and slowly put the woman who used to be wise and jade, the woman who used to move the Taiji Palace, and the woman who used to put on a wedding dress for him......

Pick it up.

Then, turning, step by step, he walked out of the door of the hut, and began to sing a nameless song from his mouth:

"My white jade body, once the tiles fell into light dust.

Providence has the grace to resurrect me as a mortal.

Although it is pure dust, it is the grace of heaven and earth.

However, the cause and effect are so good, and only a shadow of ...... is left in a scattered life."

The song spread farther and farther, softer and softer, until it could not be heard.

……

A moment later.

Linyou, Wannian Palace.

The Great Treasure Hall, the inner bed.

Li Zhi woke up suddenly, stretched out his hand, but didn't seem to see Mei Niang by his side, and immediately got up in shock, looking left and right in a panic, but when he saw the thin figure sitting on the couch under the porch, wearing clothes and looking at the bright moon above his head, his heart was slightly settled, so he got up and walked over slowly, and took off a purple embroidered golden phoenix peony from one side of the hanger, gently draped it on her, and sat down beside her, and hugged her into his arms:

"What's wrong?"

Mei Niang didn't look back, just leaned on him weakly, and said lightly after a while:

She ...... After all, I went to accompany Hui'er. ”

Li Zhi was stunned, immediately lowered his head, just silently hugged her in his arms, patted and shook her gently as if holding Li Hong, and then did not bow his head, just looked at the bright moon in the sky, and said:

"If you want to cry, cry."

Mei Niang smiled faintly, and the water in her eyes rippled:

"What are you crying about? This is also a blessing for this child...... If she followed Hui'er earlier, she would suffer less hardship. ”

Li Zhi was silent, only holding her in his arms, hiding her head and face in his neck socket.

A moment later, he felt a hot, wet sensation on his chest stain his shirt.

The next afternoon.

Sleeping in the Great Treasure Hall.

When Mei Niang opened her eyes again, Minghe had been standing beside her for a long time.

She got up slowly, sat up straight, and was stunned for a moment before she said lightly:

"But what's the news?"

"Yes."

Minghe nodded and said lightly:

"Niangniang's expectation is good, the hidden prince and the sons of the hidden prince are indeed still alive in the world."

Mei Niang suddenly raised her head and looked at Minghe tightly:

"Sure?"

"It's decided."

"The body of the emperor's heir is not trivial, how can you do it accurately?"

"Hui Niangniang, when the queen mother came to the rescue, because Julu Wang Chengyi was still young at that time, but he was a three-year-old child, so he kept his nurse and sent him out of the capital.

Brother Liu'er followed the guidance of the mother, first went to the palace register to check, and found the nurse, which confirmed the name and appearance of the nurse, which proved this. ”

Mei Niang turned her head and looked at Minghe:

"The palace attendant register is different from the palace concubine register, but the system is to be controlled by the four ladies under the queen.

Now the four concubines are only the Xiao family, and she is currently imprisoned in the cold palace, but the servants in the palace are still loyal to her, how can you be so smooth? is so sure, but what is on the palace concubine's book is not false? ”

"Niangniang, you forgot one thing, the Qianqiu Palace was a fire. And the place where it is burned is the residence of the palace people. ”

Mei Niang's eyes were clear:

"These things should have been stored here...... Who took it out? ”

"Back then, the two masters of De and Rui had the foresight to know that Niangniang was going to design the competition between Xiao Wang and the two clans, and when the fire was profitable, they went to arrange people early, replaced all the things that should be important, and hid them in the palace people's residence."

Mei Niang said lightly:

"All?"

"All."

She said no more, and after a while she added:

"Then how did you find him out of this palace register?"

"Hui Niangniang, among the sons of Prince Yin, except for the eldest son Taiyuan Wang Chengzong, who died early, there is only one fourth son, Wu'an Wang Chengxun, that is, Prince Chengqian's close attendant.

And he was also sentenced early, because he only had four sons, all of whom are still alive. ”

Mei Niang Mu Ran said:

"Shen Shu is Wang Chengming of Runan, a god back then...... At that time, the queen's mother had a clever plan, so that Lord Wei accepted her as a righteous son, and she had to enter the door of the prime minister......

In this way, there are also the second son Anlu Wang Chengdao, the third son Hedong Wang Chengde, and the youngest Julu Wang Chengyi...... The whereabouts of these three are unknown? ”

"Two, mother."

Minghe said softly:

"There is already one who has been found out. It is King Chengde of Hedong. ”

Mei Niang suddenly raised her eyes and stared straight at him, and then said for a while:

"Who is it?"

Minghe stepped forward and whispered a name in Mei Niang's ear.

In an instant, Mei Niang's eyes were wide open, her mouth was round, and she looked at Minghe in a daze.

Minghe nodded, his eyes were full of sighs, and he closed his eyes again, and when he opened his eyes, it was extremely complicated:

"Have you mentioned this to Dean or Ryan?"

"No, I didn't."

"What about Liu'er?"

"Brother Liu'er is not in time to enter the palace at all."

"Remember, you must not let Dean know about this, and you must not let Ryan know about this, understand?"

"Mother...... mother?"

"It's okay for something else, just this kind of thing...... If the two of them knew, it would be equivalent to Jiro knowing.

Right now, it's better not to let Jiro know. Be sure to save tightly. ”

"Yes."

Seeing Ming He slowly leaving the hall to arrange everything, Mei Niang suddenly closed her eyes tiredly:

Jiro...... Jiro......

What the hell am I going to do so that I don't burden you with the hatred and heartache of the previous generation?

Jiro......
