The early summer morning was a little chilly. Skyscrapers rose from the ground one after another. On the balcony of a skyscraper in the golden area of the First Ring, two frivolous women sat, their clothes fluttering in the breeze.
A girl with delicate features revealed her two canine teeth and smiled."Sister-in-law, tell me your story! Hehe!" The girl giggled.
The woman who was being questioned withdrew her gaze from the distance and turned her head. Her three thousand strands of black hair fluttered slowly in the breeze, and her exquisite face was flawless. It was somewhat flirtatious and somewhat ethereal. The woman smiled slightly, and a sweet voice like a silver bell flowed out from her thin lips. The woman looked into the distance again, but her eyes were filled with sadness.
"My story starts very, very far away. "At that time, I was only a princess," the woman said slowly with her jade-like hands supporting her small face. Her tone was sad and ethereal.
In the year 10 AD, in a dynasty that was not recorded in history. This dynasty was incomparably prosperous, and the current emperor was also a wise ruler. Unfortunately, even though there were three thousand beauties in the harem, there was always no heir. This made the officials of the current dynasty who had their own ulterior motives restless.
Perhaps the heavens took pity on this Emperor who loved his people. In the winter of that year, the Empress finally gave birth to a daughter. She was named Qing Moyan and was titled Princess Snow.
That was when she was five years old. The emperor held a birthday party for her. At that time, the country was prosperous and powerful, so the royal relatives of various countries came to congratulate her.
" Princess, don't run away. The birthday party is about to start. If the Emperor finds out, he will definitely drag me out and give me a few beatings," a palace maid around the age of eleven or twelve chased after Qing Moyan anxiously.
Qing Moyan turned her head, and her childish face revealed an evil smile. She said in a domineering and unreasonable manner,"" Shaoyao, if you keep saying that, I'll let you have a taste of being beaten first." After saying that, she flung her childish face and ran away.
The palace maid Shaoyao was helpless and could only follow Qing Moyan closely. She prayed that the little princess would get tired of playing with her and quickly go back to wash up and attend her own birthday party.
Qing Moyan sneaked into the imperial garden, revealing a wicked smile on her face. She looked at the peony behind her. It was still a large distance behind her. Qing Moyan ducked into a small hole. It was pitch-black inside. Qing Moyan touched her waist with her small hand and took out a flint. She rubbed the flint against each other and sparks came out after a while. Qing Moyan frowned and muttered,"" The things that Father gave me are too unreliable. I can't even light a fire." What she didn't know was that there was no firewood and only flint. How could she light a fire?
Qing Moyan chuckled and muttered,"" Hehe, luckily I still have this." Qing Moyan took out a long thing from her waist and blew on it. The fire started and Qing Moyan nodded in satisfaction." Yes!" The things that the little eunuch gave me are more reliable.”
Qing Moyan held a candle and shone it in the small hole. The light from the fire lit up the entire hole. It was very small inside, and only children five years old or younger could enter. However, many of the things inside were worthless folk things. However, in Qing Moyan's eyes, these were priceless treasures. She had asked the eunuch to sneak out and buy these things with great difficulty. Qing Moyan carefully picked up a wooden figurine and gently caressed it. She could not bear to part with it. The wooden figurine was carved with a handsome little boy. Qing Moyan was extremely happy when she first saw the wooden figurine, so she rewarded the little eunuch heavily.
Qing Moyan's little ears twitched. She looked outside warily and carefully climbed out of the small hole. Qing Moyan slowly crawled on the ground. She was a little confused and curious about who was in her imperial garden.
Qing Moyan crouched down and sneakily moved towards the source of the sound. He hid under a peach tree.
"Crown Prince, the Emperor wants you to hurry to the main hall. Princess Xue's fifth birthday celebration is about to begin.”A man in black said respectfully.
A handsome boy in luxurious clothes nodded. He was about seven or eight years old and had a childish face. However, it was not difficult to tell that he would be a monstrous handsome man in the future. No matter which man he was, he exuded a threatening aura and royal nobility.
Qing Moyan, who was hiding under the peach tree, moved her body slightly and accidentally stepped on a peach branch that was about to rot.
The man in black's eyes flashed and he said coldly,""Who is it?"
The eyes of the boy with a noble temperament flashed. The black-robed man understood and moved to Qing Moyan's side, lifting her up effortlessly. Qing Moyan, who was holding the wooden puppet, was furious. She used all four limbs and kicked with her hands."Put me down, put me down. Do you know who I am? Be careful of me calling…"
"Shut up!" Before Qing Moyan could finish her sentence, the man in black interrupted her coldly. The man in black brought Qing Moyan to the boy and said,""Master."
Qing Moyan puffed up her cheeks and said angrily,""Put me down, put me down.”
The boy in luxurious clothes gave the man a look. The man with the tanned skin understood and released Qing Moyan's hand. Qing Moyan came into close contact with the ground.
Qing Moyan cried out and got up in pain. She stood up and pointed at the man in black with her hands on her hips,""How dare you treat me like this? Do you know who I am? Also, didn't your master teach you? You must be polite. Presumably, your master is also such a person! Wasn't there a good saying that like master, like dog?”
"Shut up, or I'll cut off your tongue and head.”The black clothed man said coldly.
"You!" Qing Moyan was rendered speechless by the black-robed man's rebuttal. Perhaps it was because she was afraid of the black-robed man, so Qing Moyan did not say anything else.
“飂! Let's go!" The boy in luxurious clothes said calmly. He turned around and left.
The man in black bowed respectfully.”She followed behind the boy.
Qing Moyan looked at their backs and felt a little upset. No one had ever dared to treat her like this! He wasn't trying to curry favor with her.
"Princess, princess, where are you? We should go back soon. The Empress is looking for someone.”Peony's anxious voice slowly sounded. Qing Moyan was shocked and quickly hid the wooden puppet in her sleeve. He was waiting for Shaoyao's arrival.
Shaoyao walked over slowly and saw Qing Moyan standing beside the peach tree. The stone in her heart was lifted and she sighed,""Princess, I've finally found you. The Empress is looking for you, Princess!"
Qing Moyan nodded slightly." Yes! Let's go!"
Shaoyao was a little surprised when she heard Qing Moyan's words. She never thought that Qing Moyan would agree to go back so easily. When she sneaked out in the past, she would not go back no matter what. However, Shaoyao did not think too much about it, because she would be thankful if Qing Moyan was willing to go back.
Night fell quietly, putting a thin veil over the sky. The crescent moon hung high in the sky, casting a faint layer of moonlight. Everything was so quiet and peaceful, but in a corner of the palace, it was very lively.
The Hundred Year Court of the Imperial Palace was extremely lively and luxurious. Every glazed tile reflected the faint moonlight, as if it was covered in a layer of silver. Noble and pure white.
"King of Qin, congratulations! It has been five years since the princess of the present country! This is the Cloudflame Pill I brought from the Cloudflame Continent. It can increase one's internal strength by ten times.”A middle-aged man smiled and said with a look!
A man behind him understood and walked over with a gilded mahogany box in his hands.
The King of Qin, Qing Yan, laughed. "Please excuse me, Yunyan King." As Qing Yan spoke, a eunuch walked forward and took the gilded mahogany box before retreating respectfully.
Yunyan King walked to his seat and sat down slowly.
"King of Qin, congratulations!”A handsome man in a red robe slowly walked up. Beside him was a handsome boy of seven or eight years old. Both of them exuded the aura of the royal family. Without a doubt, these two were also members of the royal family.
Qing Yan quickly stood up and said,"A rare distinguished guest!" The king of the ancient country has actually come." Qing Yan was a little excited. Although he was also the ruler of a country and the country was prosperous, it was still a small country. This time, an ancient country of the four great countries had actually come. How could he not be excited?
Gu Tianyun laughed,"What?" Could it be that the King of Qin does not welcome me?
Qing Yan hurriedly said,"How can I?" It's my great honor that the King of the ancient country can come. It's also my honor!
Gu Tianyun pretended to be surprised and laughed," Really?”
Qing Yan also laughed along with Gu Tianyun," That's right.”Qing Yan noticed the elegant boy beside Gu Tianyun and said," What was this?
Gu Tianyun stopped smiling and looked at the boy,""Jun 'er, hurry up and bow."
Gu Zijun bowed elegantly and said,"" Greetings to the King of Qin Country. I am the Crown Prince of the ancient country." His tone was very calm, but not weak.
Qing Yan nodded in satisfaction.”Qing Yan sat on the Dragon Throne.
Gu Tianyun nodded in satisfaction and led Gu Zijun to his seat.
"The banquet is about to begin," Qing Yan said happily. She then turned to the eunuch beside her and said,""Immediately go and call the princess to attend the banquet.”
The eunuch beside him bowed respectfully and said softly,""Yes, sir! Your Majesty. "After answering, you will slowly retreat.
At this moment, Qing Moyan's bedroom was in a mess. At the critical moment, Qing Moyan was playing the game of missing people in the palace. She was as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
"The Empress has arrived! " An ear-piercing sound came from outside Qing Moyan's bedroom. As soon as the sound fell, an enchanting woman dressed elegantly and elegantly walked in. Behind her were four palace maids and two eunuchs.
Shaoyao's heart trembled. She immediately led the palace maids and eunuchs in Qing Moyan's bedroom to kneel down and respectfully said,""Greetings to the Empress.”
Empress Yao Yanyu glanced at him and said coldly,""Where's the princess?"
Shaoyao was shocked. Her voice trembled as she said,""Reporting…reporting to the Empress, the Princess…the Princess is missing.”
Yao Yanyu's face turned cold as she said sternly,""Then why are you still kneeling here? Hurry up and look for him. The banquet is about to start.”
Shaoyao immediately kowtowed." Yes! He led everyone out to search.”
