At dusk, the sun has already set, which is when the sky and the earth are dim, also known as dusk.

In Nanzhou City at this time, everything was hazy, and faint lights came out from the low buildings. On the long street, the autumn wind whistled, and wisps of tenaciously penetrated through the cracks in the bamboo windows, making the already dim oil lamps even more intense.

Wavering.

Window paper is too expensive, so some ordinary people use animal skins to block the wind, while poorer people use large-leaf plants sewn with bamboo slices and wooden blocks as window panels.

The hides don't get much light and are too stuffy, and the bamboo and wooden windows let out rain and air, so some people simply don't have windows.

Of course, the huge General's Mansion is different from that of ordinary people. Although there is only a young master like the princess, there are all daily necessities. The window screens made of high-quality silk cloth and tissue paper are bright and windproof, and the interior is always as warm as spring.

A copper lamp was firmly placed on the wall. The room was bright, but the atmosphere was tense. Servants carrying water and towels came in and out quietly.

"Ayu is going out tomorrow, but it's a pity that I didn't hit the bear." The little girl, who was so tough during the day, is now lying on the couch like a sick cat, with a dull look in her eyes and a breath of anger. "Uncle Ji, scare me for me."

If her husband-in-law dares to bully Ayu in the future, I will not spare him."

"Okay, I will wait for my subordinate to report to the Marquis Ming and accept Ayu as his adopted daughter. No one will dare to bully her in the future." Uncle Ji sat down beside him in a polite manner and comforted him in a gentle voice, "The princess is tired from fighting bears all day.

, rest in peace."

Knowing that he was going to accept Ayu as his adopted daughter, the princess let out a small breath, seemingly relieved. She was about to close her eyes, but suddenly opened them again and looked over with clear eyes:

"Where's my dad?"

"There is someone coming from the capital. As a general, Mr. Hou is going to receive him. He will be back soon." Uncle Ji looked at Luo Yan gently wiping her sweat and asked, "Is the fever gone?"

Well, Luo Yan nodded silently.

After all, he was a child. He only found out that he was injured halfway back, so he endured the pain without shouting. When he returned to the house, he cleaned the wound, ate something and lay down, he started to feel hot all over.

She went to see a doctor and cooked some medicine for her to drink. Luo Yanhe stayed with her all the time.

Luo Yan is a servant and should not do the work of these maids. The Marquis has ordered that they do not need to serve closely unless the princess is ill. She is afraid that some lowly slaves will be bribed and take the opportunity to tamper with wounds or medicine.

.

Ayu is trustworthy, but she is preparing to get married, so she doesn't have to wait on her for the next few days.

"You and Wu Xi will take turns tonight." Coming out of the young master's inner room, Uncle Ji whispered, "Master Hou will probably be back soon. Be careful and don't make any mistakes. Otherwise, you guys will peel off your skin."

!”

"promise!"

The voices of the three people gradually faded away. On the couch in the inner room, the little child was lying very quietly with a pale face. Her sleepiness was getting thicker, her delicate brows lightly frowned, her expression was slightly uneasy, and her little mouth began to whisper softly:

"aunt……"

Aunt, that poor lonely and helpless woman who lived in the palace. Time flies, and after five years of separation, she can no longer remember her appearance. She vaguely remembers that her aunt is a very gentle woman, and she has a light fragrance.

"Zhao'er," I can't remember anything else, but I still remember the woman's warm embrace and the muffled and vague cry of guilt in my mind, "Auntie, I can't help you..."

She was repeatedly bullied by those people in the palace, and almost died several times.

"My aunt can't even protect her own son, so she can only ignore you and let them bully you..." As long as she ignores you, the person in the palace will be distracted and take care of her. With that person taking care of her, Zhao'er will have a chance to survive.

However, it is inevitable to suffer some hardships.

"Aunt..." the little child muttered in his sleep.

Luo Yan, who just happened to come in, heard it and thought it was getting hot again, so he quickly stretched out his hand to check. Huh, it's okay, it's just a slight heat, not like the scalding heat just now, so it's not a serious problem for now.

When she stretched out her hand like this, the child's dream changed, and the princess sister's playful laughter rang in his ears:

"Huh? Why does everyone have a mother-in-law, but you don't? Because your father is a slave who subjugated the country, and you are the son of a slave, a scoundrel, and do not deserve a mother..."

Auntie, the child’s eyebrows are tightly knitted.

In the dream, what appeared in front of me were either high palace walls, countless stone railings, and large and small squares with a broad view. Except for the wooden guards, no one could be seen around them.

"Aunt..."

Her vision swayed, and she seemed to be the only one wandering around in the huge palace, looking for a figure that seemed familiar, the figure called "A-Niang" in the mouth of the princess.

"Aunt..."

She doesn’t know what A-Niang is. It should be important, right? After all, everyone has it, so she should have it too.

As she ran, her eyes flashed, and the empty palace grounds suddenly turned into a lively and bustling square. An old woman with permed hair came towards her with a smile... Don't ask her why she knew how to perm her hair.

hair.

This dream was very strange and seemed familiar. The old woman had already waved to me before she came to her:

"Alin Ayue, come here quickly and let your dad take a photo of us..."

"Mom..." the sleeping child blurted out.

dad!

...What is it? Who are these people? Do they know her? She doesn't know, she only knows that her name is not A Lin.

Her surname is Beiyue, and her name is Yuanzhao, the name given by her uncle. Also, the name given by her father is Dongxiang, which is not Lin.

In the year of Fengyuan, there were constant heavy rains and floods in the south. It was her birth that brought sunny weather to all parts of the south. This was what the imperial divination order said. His Majesty often held her and laughed and said that she was Wu Chu's little lucky star, and

Give him the name Yuan Zhao.

Yuan means the first year, which was the first year Emperor Fengyuan ascended the throne; Zhao means day, which means bright and beautiful. It is believed that her birth brought a glimmer of light and hope to the people in the disaster.

In the third year of Fengyuan, there was a drought in the north. Not only did the rivers dry up, the fields yielded no grain, and even the wells dried up.

The land was full of hungry people, and the people were resentful.

One night, she was carried by an unknown palace maid to the 108 steps of Jinyuntai in the middle of the night. It was a place where the royal family worshiped gods. It was sacred and solemn and could not be desecrated.

Anyone who goes on stage without permission and offends the gods will be beheaded.

Fortunately, Emperor Fengyuan, who was staying at the palace halfway up the altar and discussing with the Taibu Ling to pray for rain, thought that she was an ignorant child and was woken up by someone in the middle of the night. She suffered a lot and was exempted from the blame.

However, here and now, she didn't know who instigated her to clamor to worship the Sun Master Empress... The Sun Master Empress was a god worshiped by the Beiyue clan. Now that the new dynasty was established, she worshiped the Dragon God.

It was obvious that someone wanted to kill the little girl or her aunt.

Emperor Fengyuan took a look and saw that she was only over two years old. Who knew who she was? He sighed deeply, waved his hand, and asked the prince to accompany her on foot to Jinyuntai to worship.

108 steps!

In the middle of the night, no guards were allowed, and the chamberlains were supporting the noble prince and her young daughter. They were very tired. They walked and walked, and she finally just crawled, which was so fast! I still remember that a little chamberlain beside the prince hurriedly

Shout loudly:

"Slow down, slow down! His Highness is still behind..."

Prince: "..."

I really wanted to kick him, but I didn't have the strength.

Just like this, there were no ceremonial officials, no priests, and even no incense. One large and one small finally reached the altar, with only the chamberlains and bodyguards lined up in two rows. Under the cover of the dark night, there was a faint solemn atmosphere.

Everyone is different, she worships her sun god, and he worships his dragon god.

After praying, everyone went back to the palace to find their respective aunts. In the middle of the night, there was a loud bang from the sky, and it finally started to rain.

Worthy of being Wu Chu’s little lucky star!

The emperor was so pleased that he made her the Princess of Anping the next day. Anping was the royal title that Dingyuanhou had when he was in the previous dynasty. Regardless of whether she asked for the rain or not, Jun Wu said that if the emperor said it was her, then

That's her.

Of course, some people see another meaning in it.
