General and Princess

    The two originally planned to leave the palace after taking the medicine, but You Tao and Luo Xiang hadn't returned, so they waited in Fengxi Hall.

    "Princess, show me around Fengxi Palace." With nothing to do, Di Shengyue said, "I want to see where you grew up."

    Xiao Yinxue softly said "um", then took Di Shengyue's hand and walked around with Di Shengyue.

    Di Shengyue looked at the hand held by Xiao Yinxue, her eyes moved slightly, she secretly turned her fingers, turning their hands into a shape of interdigitation.

    Xiao Yinxue seemed to notice it, but paused slightly, and did not wave Di Shengyue's hand.

    Di Shengyue slightly hooked her lips and held her tighter.

    After walking with Xiao Yinxue for a while, and admiring the scenery of Fengxi Hall, Di Shengyue said, "Princess, I want to go to your bedroom to see."

    "It's just an ordinary bedroom," Xiao Yinxue stopped, her cheeks turned red for some reason, "What's so beautiful."

    Di Shengyueyuan only mentioned it casually, but looking at Xiao Yinxue's flushed cheeks, she suddenly smelled something unusual.

    "Princess, what are you nervous about?" Di Shengyue walked to Xiao Yinxue and looked into her eyes.

    Di Shengyue suddenly became more and more interested in Xiao Yinxue's bedroom, Xiao Yinxue was rarely so nervous.

    Di Shengyue took a step forward.

    Xiao Yinxue took a step back subconsciously, but found that Di Shengyue was holding her hand and could not step back.

    She tried to break free from Di Shengyue's palm, and when she noticed Xiao Yinxue's movements, Di Shengyue grasped Xiao Yinxue's palm even tighter.

    Di Shengyue leaned into Xiao Yinxue's ear and asked, "Could it be that there is any secret in the princess's bedroom?"

    Xiao Yinxue's cheeks flushed all of a sudden: "How can there be any secret."

    Thinking of some things in the bedroom, Xiao Yinxue couldn't help but feel a little guilty, her eyes were erratic, and she didn't dare to look at Di Shengyue.

    Xiao Yinxue's appearance clearly means that there is a problem.

    "Since there is none, then the princess..."

    Just before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Xiao Yinxue: "This princess doesn't like others looking at her bedroom."

    "Oh?" Di Shengyue raised her brows and looked at Xiao Yinxue with playful eyes.

    "But I just want to see the princess' bedroom."

    "The princess said she didn't want to, so she didn't want to!" Xiao Yinxue said, her footsteps could not help speeding up a bit, as if she was about to escape from somewhere.

    Di Shengyue looked at Xiao Yinxue anxiously, with a playful smile in her eyes, she looked vaguely at several bedrooms in completely different directions from the backyard, it seemed that Xiao Yin Xue's bedroom should be in that direction, maybe at some point, she can sneak a look to see what little secret Xiao Yinxue is hiding.

    While walking quickly, Xiao Yinxue felt embarrassed and panicked, thinking that she must find an opportunity to tidy up all the bedroom.

    The backyard of Fengxi Hall is very renovated, and many plum trees are planted around it.

    "I heard the old mama say that these plum blossom trees were transplanted by the father from a long distance." Xiao Yinxue looked at the plum blossom trees in the distance and said, "It is said that for the sake of To plant these rare trees, the royal father has put a lot of thought into it."

    Unfortunately, the love between the father and the queen did not last long.

    Seeing Xiao Yinxue's low mood, Di Shengyue didn't say much, just stood beside Xiao Yinxue and quietly accompanied her.

    Xiao Yinxue looked at Di Shengyue with a little warmth in her eyes.

    She took Di Shengyue into the pavilion in the backyard, and there was a chess box in the pavilion. Because it has not been used for a long time, it has become obsolete, and a few cracks can be vaguely seen on it.

    Xiao Yinxue touched the old chessboard, and her eyes were filled with thoughts: "When I was young, I used to play chess here by myself. I heard from the old lady in the palace that the queen mother often Playing games with the father and the emperor here. I haven't seen the mother and queen very much, so I always wanted to do something that the mother and queen did, and feel the existence of the mother. The masters in the palace taught the most basic pairs, how to play games and how to arrange them. , I didn't mention it at all. I once asked my father to give me some pointers, and as soon as my father saw this chessboard, he walked away angrily."

    Xiao Yinxue took a white stone, put it on the corner of the chessboard, and said, "I only found out after my mother told me. The queen mother is excellent at chess, and she is also a very strong person. When the second father and mother play chess, they will break up unhappily. So when the father sees the chessboard, he is so unhappy."

    "The queen is indeed a person who refuses to admit defeat." Thinking of the deeds of the Yuan Dynasty that her father told her, Di Shengyue said, "It is because of her unyielding defeat that there is a country of Xiao'. God of War' name."

    "Yes, 'God of War'." Xiao Yinxue whispered.

    With a "pop", another sunspot landed on the other corner.

    The two pieces, one black and one white, occupy different places, and they echo each other, but they can't touch each other.

    Just like Xiao Yinxue and Yuan Empress.

    "Has the princess ever resented the queen?" Di Shengyue asked.

    Not long after Yuan Empress gave birth to Xiao Yinxue, she went to the battlefield and hardly ever had any chance to get along with Xiao Yinxue.

    The next year, after the Yuan Dynasty returned victoriously, she was pregnant with the eldest prince, and her thoughts were all on the eldest prince, and she was very indifferent to Xiao Yinxue.

    It's just that Empress Yuan was too weak because of too many injuries on the battlefield. When giving birth, the fetus was in an abnormal position, which was extremely painful.

    In the end, the eldest prince was stillborn, and the queen died because she was too weak.

    Xiao Yinxue became a princess without the love of her mother.

    Thinking of this, Di Shengyue's eyes are dim, she once thought so.

    But judging from the conversation between Xiao Yinxue and the emperor in the previous life, the death of the Empress Yuan seems to be inseparable from the emperor.

    The darkness of the palace is far more terrifying than she imagined.

    Xiao Yinxue shook her head and said, "How could I resent my mother. The mother has always been my pride. It's just a pity that my body is not up to par, otherwise I would like to protect my mother like my mother. what you care about the most.”

    When Xiao Yinxue said these words, she raised her head and looked at Di Shengyue.

    Di Shengyue was stunned for a moment, such a profound and righteous Xiao Yinxue, how did she feel that she was unreasonable in her previous life!

    Di Shengyue looked at Xiao Yinxue and softened.

    There was tenderness in those eyes.

    She took a step forward, hugged Xiao Yinxue, and put her head on her waist.

    "Princess, you don't need to protect anyone." Di Shengyue's voice was so gentle, with a strong tenderness.

    You have been very good at protecting me, both in the past and in this life.

    So

    Di Shengyue said seriously: "From now on, I will protect you."

    Xiao Yinxue leaned on Di Shengyue's body and felt the peace of mind she had never felt before.

    "Yeah." She replied softly.
