BXBX NOVEL Chapter 368: alive
Shen Mingjiao glanced at the embroidery thread she held in her hand, and couldn\'t help but marvel: "You embroidered red plums, so beautiful!"
Along the way, Yun Shu consciously takes care of the daily necessities of the group, and she has a wealth of experience and vision, which perfectly complements the silly Haitang.
Yun Shu usually never asks them what they are going to do, and only helps her do some sewing from time to time, and most of the clothes she wears now are made by Yun Shu.
Yun Shu smiled and said, "I\'m only capable of doing this. Seeing that the weather is getting warmer, I\'ll make a spring shirt for the princess some other day, and I\'ll take that goose-yellow makeup gauze."
Shen Mingjiao looked at her helplessly: "I told you earlier that I was willing to save you back then, not because I wanted you to be my little maid."
She has said this many times, but Yun Shu just smiles every time.
Sure enough, Yun Shu put down her needle and thread, and said: "Madam, don\'t worry too much. All I want is a shelter. Today\'s life is much better than what I imagined before. If Madam returns to the palace, it will be her turn." Until I do this, but now I’m on the road, since my wife has brought me with me. I should do what I can.”
Shen Mingjiao looked at the glamorous face in front of her. She was willing to take Yun Shu in because she had the same name as her sister, and because she was talented and good at poetry. At that time, she wanted to use Yun Shu to abuse Su Qing.
After the Su family was robbed, Shen Mingjiao once asked her about her future plans, because the two of them got to know each other somehow, if she wanted to go back to Gaochang and get her identity back, Shen Mingjiao would also find ways to help her.
Yun Shu just smiled and shook her head, her beautiful purple eyes remained calm.
"Princess Xiyue is dead, only Yunshu is alive."
Seeing her like this, Shen Mingjiao didn\'t want to say anything more, Yunshu just wanted to stay in the Pretty Pavilion, and do some work casually, as long as she could support herself.
Shen Mingjiao has always known that Yun Shu is a person with a story, but she respects the privacy of others, so even though she was a little curious, she never asked.
However, now that it involves the Gaochang royal court, she can\'t care so much anymore.
"I came here today because I want to ask you something."
Yun Shu picked up the needle and thread again, and raised her head curiously upon hearing this.
"His Royal Highness has received news. It is said that the royal court of Gaochang is restless, and has sent operas to various parts of Daxia, intending to provoke civil strife in the Central Plains."
Yunshu\'s face changed when she heard the words, the needle in her hand almost pricked her finger, she lost her voice: "Impossible, Gaochang is just a small oasis country, how can it be an enemy of the Central Plains!"
After all, it is the motherland where she was born. Even if she can never go back in her life, she does not want Gaochang to be destroyed.
Shen Mingjiao poured her a cup of tea and smiled comfortingly at her.
"Don\'t be nervous, I just got some news right now, the details are yet to be verified, because you lived in Gaochang since you were young, so I thought of asking you.
How much do you know about the current King of Gaochang, Nalanxu? "
Yun Shu took a sip of tea, and her emotions gradually calmed down. She said softly, "Nalan Xu is my father\'s half-brother. He is not very smart. He likes to make money, but he bullies the weak and fears the hard."
Shen Mingjiao asked: "What about Queen Gaochang? What kind of person is she?"
Yun Shu frowned: "I have been away from Gaochang for nearly seven years. I vaguely remember that before Beidi attacked Gaochang, my second uncle\'s wife seemed to be deeply involved in evil and died suddenly. It seems that my second uncle brought a woman from the Central Plains back from outside. It is said that I love that woman very much."
"Then do you still remember the woman\'s appearance?"
Yun Shu nodded hesitantly: "At that time, Wang Tingzhong held a family banquet, and the second uncle showed her with her."
She roughly described the woman\'s appearance from memory, Shen Mingjiao became more and more startled the more she heard it. According to Yunshu\'s description, this queen of Gaochang is almost the same as the portrait that Cui Lingling had found out back then.
That is to say, the queen of Gaochang Kingdom is indeed the saint who escaped from the Miaojiang God and Witch Village.
How did the prince get involved with such a person?
Seeing that Yunshu\'s expression was a little wandering, Shen Mingjiao asked softly: "Can you tell me something about your past?"
Yunshu came back to her senses, lowered her eyelashes, and said softly:
"My days in Gaochang should have been quite happy!
My father\'s heart is Ziming, and he has four older brothers. I am the youngest child of my father, and because I was born with purple eyes and outstanding appearance, I was famous far and wide at a young age. While my father was happy, he couldn\'t help feeling sad, Gaochang is only a small country in the Western Regions, and my father was afraid that he wouldn\'t be able to protect me. So early on, he betrothed me to the only son of a minister\'s family in the court. "
Mentioning this, her voice obviously choked up, but she continued:
"That man is three years older than me, he is... a boy who is more blazing than the sun.
We grew up together, he and his two older brothers were meant to be close, and after getting engaged, they followed me all day long.
At that time, we often rode camels in the endless desert, yearning for the world beyond the desert. He heard that the Central Plains had beautiful mountains and clear waters, and everyone could wear expensive silk. He promised me. When we grow up, he will take me to the capital of Daxia, to the ancient capital of Chang\'an..."
She spoke quietly, her beautiful purple eyes glowed with radiance, and her whole body looked radiant.
"Until the age of ten, Beidi sent troops to attack Daxia, and had to borrow a way from Gaochang. Gaochang soon fell, and my father and brother were locked up. He and I escaped by chance, but were taken as prisoners by the Beidi army. We met King Su who was lurking into Beidi,
I told King Su the secret way to enter the city, and King Su led an army to protect Gaochang. "
She clenched her fingers into fists: "We thought the suffering would be over, but at this moment there was a rumor that the Beidi army that had withdrawn went back and turned back. Beidi sent someone to say that their prince admired Princess Xiyue. Gaochang was saved from war and had to hand over Princess Xiyue.
I don’t know why this news spread to everyone. The people of Gaochang Kingdom were frightened by Beidi’s army. They forced my father to hand me over one after another.
Father refused, saying that we have the protection of the Great Xia Kingdom, and Beidi would not dare to attack again.
But the common people didn\'t believe it, and several big families who wanted to replace them fanned the flames, and finally the father was crushed to death by the excited rioters!
My father served the people all his life, but in the end he died in the hands of the people he wholeheartedly guarded.
In order to appease public anger, I asked him to hand me over. But he refused to die. Soon Beidi Army sent a team over, and several elder brothers went out of the city to fight, all of them died.
Then rumors began to spread in the city, saying that I was a demon with the heart of harming the country, and that the Beidi army sent troops to attack Gaochang in order to get me. I was imprisoned in the palace by people from several big families. To burn me alive.
The fire almost engulfed the temple, I thought I was dying, but he appeared..."
She will never forget that in the flames, half of the boy\'s deep and handsome face was hit by a burning and broken wooden beam, but he smiled brightly as usual, his eyes were as bright as obsidian,
"Princess, promise me to live a good life."
Because of this sentence, even though she was later sold into a flower building, was almost ruined many times, and suffered all kinds of humiliation, she never gave up hope of life.
She tried her best to live a good life, just for the boy\'s words "live well".
Shen Mingjiao took out the handkerchief and handed it over, and said softly, "I\'m sorry."
Yun Shu took the veil and shook her head: "It\'s all in the past."
Although she said so, Shen Mingjiao knew that it would never pass in her lifetime.
In the past, Shen Mingjiao only thought that Yunshu Mingming\'s talent and appearance were not bad, but she seemed to have no desires or desires. She tried her best to follow her and to have a shelter, but she just imagined the peaceful life that the young man expected. !
