Chapter 1: The princess descends to
the hall. "Your Majesty, I invite you to come down to the hall."
The voice fell, and the guards and maids in the courtyard wanted to bury themselves in the ground. The voice was so quiet that you could clearly hear a pin drop.
There was only one little maidservant who had just entered the palace. Because she was standing in the corner, she secretly raised her head and looked at the beautiful girl in the middle of the yard who was wearing a pure red tapestry dress with golden branches and peony, and a luan bird holding beads on her head and rocking a golden hairpin. An incomparable and stunning woman.
The moment she saw the princess, the little maid thought she saw the fairy in the sky that her grandma talked about.
"Are you serious?"
A warm and clear voice came from under the eaves. The little maid looked around curiously. She only had time to catch a glimpse of the black gold silk clothes before she was pulled down by the nanny beside her.
Zhou Yunshu looked at Ji Sheng, who had picturesque features and the most beautiful face in the Zhou Dynasty, on the steps. Even after twenty years, she still couldn't help but feel amazed.
Oh, by the way, Ji Sheng hates other people talking about his appearance.
I heard that ten years ago, a man held a wine glass and talked loudly in a restaurant, saying that Ji Sheng was as beautiful as Jiutian Xuannu and even better than Diao Chan and Xi Shi. Therefore, he shaved off the base of his tongue with a sword, cut both mouths, chopped off his arms, and kicked him out of the restaurant.
In addition, because of his unselfishness, he was in charge of the Black Prison Department responsible for lynching and punishment. He killed countless people and ransacked their homes, so he was called a cold-blooded Yama.
Zhou Yunshu thought in her mind, and when she met those cold and deep eyes, she subconsciously looked away, for fear that he would notice her abnormality.
Yes, the Zhou Yunshu in front of her is no longer the original Zhou Yunshu, but the Zhou Yunshu who died in childbirth in her previous life and was reincarnated into modern times twenty years later and was reborn into the Zhou Dynasty due to a car accident.
Thinking of the time for her rebirth, Zhou Yunshu raised her head and looked at Ji Sheng on the stage firmly, and said seriously: "I am serious."
"I invite you to come down!"
She must leave the palace today.
Zhou Yunshu's natal family was the famous Zhenbei Palace of the Zhou Dynasty, otherwise she would not have married Wei Wang Jisheng in the first place.
But yesterday afternoon, an urgent report came from Youzhou in the north, saying that the king of Zhenbei had collaborated with foreign enemies, betrayed the country and sought glory, and colluded with the Eastern Turks to rebel, resulting in the fall of Biyuguan in Youzhou.
After the armies of the Eastern Turks and Tiele went south, they burned, looted, and set fire to the city, resulting in heavy casualties among the soldiers in the north and the displacement of the people.
Under this situation, Cai Chuan, the governor of Youzhou, obeyed his authority urgently and killed first and then reported.
He led the Youzhou army and the Zhou family army led by King Zhenbei to fight to the death at Biyu Pass, and finally killed the treasonous leader Zhenbei King Zhou Cungao and his two sons and three grandsons at the Mobei border.
When the news came, the capital was in an uproar.
Overnight, the once most prosperous family in Da Zhou instantly fell into disdain.
When Zhou Yunshu came to see Ji Sheng, who had just left the court, the palace's order to confiscate the property had already been sent to Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
Not only did they confiscate their homes, but Zhou Yunshu remembered that the Holy Emperor also issued an edict that because King Zhenbei was treason, all the men over ten years old in the Zhenbei Prince's Palace were to be executed, and the men under ten and all the female family members were exiled to the Southern Barbarians.
Of course, the female relatives do not include Zhou Yunshu's grandmother Ji Mingzhu, and Princess Ningping, the wife of Zhenbei King Zhou Cungao.
But even if not, her grandmother still left the capital with the Zhou family in her previous life.
Ji Mingzhu, the eldest princess of Ningping, was the eldest sister of the late Emperor Zhou Guang, and the only eldest daughter of Zhou Ruizong.
If Emperor Zhou Guang had not been in poor health and only reigned for three years, and Zhou Ruizong had few heirs, he would not have adopted the current emperor from the clan at that time.
It can be said that Ji Mingzhu owes a lot to the fact that the current emperor can successfully ascend the throne.
But King Zhenbei was convicted of treason. Even if Ji Mingzhu was the eldest princess, she could not protect the Zhou family.
The Southern Barbarians were the exile place specially chosen by the emperor. The reputation of the Zhenbei Palace in the north was already surpassing that of the imperial court. He was afraid that exiling the people of the Zhenbei Palace to the north would be like letting the tiger return to the mountain.
That's right, even if there was news from the North that the Prince of Zhenbei had betrayed the imperial court and colluded with foreign enemies, few people in the North or even the capital would believe it.
King Zhenbei had guarded the north for thirty years. If King Zhenbei really wanted to betray the Zhou Dynasty, why would he wait until today? He could have established himself as king thirty years ago before the Holy Emperor ascended the throne.
To put it bluntly, the Zhenbei Palace has reached this stage just because it blocked the emperor's way and hindered the emperor's eyes, so it was natural that he became the soul of the emperor.
Ji Sheng looked at Zhou Yunshu who was looking at him stubbornly in the audience, and said, "As you wish."
...
When Zhou Yunshu returned to the main courtyard, the surrounding servants secretly looked at Zhou Yunshu.
Zhou Yunshu's personal maid looked at her master and hesitated to speak despite these observations.
Back in the hall, Zhou Yunshu said to the four maids around her: "You also heard what I just said to the prince."
"Qiu Lu himself is from the prince's palace, I will not make arrangements."
She looked at her three dowry maids. The maid said, "I will return your contract of sale to you. You can go home by yourself."
"Princess!"
Chunque knelt at Zhou Yunshu's feet in panic, raised her head and looked at Zhou Yunshu with red eyes and said, "Miss! Chunque Don't leave, Chunque's life was saved by you, Chunque will be yours whether he lives or dies."
Dongge knelt beside Chunque, "Where are you going, Miss?"
Zhou Yunshu's eyes flashed with emotion, but she thought of herself. On the way to go next, he said: "I will go to Nanman with the Zhou family, you..."
"We will follow the young lady!" Chun Que and Dong Ge said in unison.
Zhou Yunshu sighed. When she had a difficult childbirth in her previous life, it was Chunque who drew her sword and ran out of the palace to find a doctor for herself. It was Dongge who guarded her side.
It's just a pity that it's too late.
"Miss, don't let me go." Chunque looked at Zhou Yunshu fearfully, fearing that she would abandon him.
"Okay."
After Zhou Yunshu finished speaking, she looked at Xia Ying, who had been standing next to her silently. Xia Ying's eyes were evasive, but
she still said: "Princess, I, I want to stay in the palace to take care of the little princess." A cold look flashed in Zhou Yunshu's eyes. It was only when she suffered from severe labor bleeding in her previous life that she discovered Xia Ying's anomaly. Although her rebirth in this life was too hasty, the person who betrayed her...
"Mother!"
Zhou Yunshu's thoughts were interrupted by the cry of milk.
When Zhou Yunshu heard this Nuo Nuo shouting, her nose felt sore and she immediately walked outside. The person she saw was indeed her daughter.
In the previous life, after the Zhenbei Palace fell and the Zhou family was exiled to the Southern Barbarians, Concubine Li, the mother-in-law of King Wei, kept sending beauties to the Palace of Wei, and even sent her biological niece to the Palace to be a concubine.
If Ji Sheng hadn't insisted, perhaps Zhou Yunshu's position as the concubine would have been taken away by Cheng Jiajia, instead of just moving with her daughter from the main courtyard to the most remote courtyard of the palace to be a transparent person.
Thinking about it, after she died in childbirth in her previous life, the position of the concubine should have fallen into Cheng Jiajia's hands.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yunshu touched her belly unconsciously. She remembered Po Wen's cry that she was pregnant with twins, and the twins died together in her belly.
"Concubine, don't cry."
Xiangxiang's soft little hands fell on Zhou Yunshu's face, and Zhou Yunshu held her daughter in her arms.
The reason why she just went to the front yard without saying that she wanted to take her daughter with her was because Zhou Yunshu knew that Ji Sheng's mother-in-law would not let a child with Zhou family blood stay in the palace and become a thorn in the emperor's side.
Sure enough, when Zhou Yunshu was carrying her daughter back to the dormitory to pack her things, Aunt Jiang from the front yard walked in with a bundle.
"Princess, the prince asked his slave to pack the princess's baggage..."
Aunt Jiang swallowed the rest of her words under Zhou Yunshu's eyes.
In fact, she didn't understand. No matter how much the little princess was a bloodline of the prince, how could the prince agree to Concubine Li to let the little princess leave the palace with the princess?
Is it possible that the rumors are true, that the master has long wanted to divorce the princess, and that the purpose of driving away the little princess is just to make way for the third lady of the prime minister's family?
