The night in early winter is quiet and deserted. The frost and rain have stopped. The ground is wet and dark, reflecting the night sky. Only a few solitary lamps are left swaying in the biting cold wind.

Jiang Nan was trapped in a dream, constantly stepping on the air and falling.

Time and time again, he fell from the high city wall and fell into the cold water, struggling desperately to survive.

Then, the dream changed, and she stood on the bank of the Green Water River. There were countless souls floating in the Green Water River, shining strangely like fireflies. The other side was full of Gu family members and her mother.

They didn't speak or smile at her, they just waved her away.

But where is she going?

There is no home behind her!

The death knell rang, and the heaven and earth shook.

"Emperor Chenghua has passed away!" the voice of the ghost by the Green Water River was long and stretched for thousands of miles.

Emperor Chenghua?

It's Xie Yun.

Jiang Nan was shocked. Xie Yun was still just a prince. When did he become emperor?

Xie Yun proclaimed himself emperor at the age of twenty-three and reigned for ten years. He served the people diligently and the country was peaceful and peaceful. Then he suddenly died.

When talking about the previous dynasty, the queen also looked disgusted and resentful.

"I don't want it, my father is not my father."

"...Can't you just dream about something good? Are you expecting me to die?" Xie Yun looked strange, not knowing whether to comfort her or himself.

"Suicide for love? That's fine!" Xie Yun grinned.

Just breathing is still very fast and heavy.

After a while, Jiang Nan smelled the strange fragrance on him again. Although it faded a little, it did not completely dissipate. He had clearly taken a bath and changed his clothes last night, so why was there still that smell?

"Um?"

How can a woman's powdery smell be so tenacious?

Xie Yun's words of love were indeed exaggerated, but Jiang Nan did not laugh and asked blankly: "Then will you kill yourself?"

The face is childish and the eyes are firm and cold.

"It's just a dream, everything is the opposite." Xie Yun gently rubbed the top of her hair, blaming himself in his heart. She must have been frightened last night, and he even argued with her over Chen Yanli.

"To tell the truth, the Gu family is just an unjust case, but Leping is a bloodline of the previous dynasty. When Emperor Gaozu was still alive, the Hundred Ghost Camp created chaos among the people in the name of restoring the previous dynasty, and the people were in dire straits. The Holy Emperor was deeply disgusted, and when he first ascended the throne, he hunted and killed hundreds of ghosts. The camp seems to have been destroyed now, but in fact it is all hidden in the dark, just like the weeds that cannot be killed at all! Who dares to say that this has nothing to do with the Liang family in Leshan? "

"Shu'er, what are you doing? I'm your mother!" The woman stepped back, but there was no trace of fear on her face.

"I dreamed that you were dead."

At the entrance, a bright light shone in, making people stunned.

In the blink of an eye, a huge whirlpool swept her up, and the Green Water River disappeared.

"ah!!!"

The young man's eyebrows were sinister and violent, and he pierced the Queen Mother's heart with a sword: "I am a descendant of the Xie family, and you are a remnant of the previous dynasty. We are sworn in! I will kill you to avenge my father!"

Jiang Nan woke up with a fright, stretched out her hand to caress her chest where a bloody hole had been poked, and there was deep fear and horror in her eyes.

Changle Palace.

Xie Yun was stunned for a moment, hugged her tightly, and said in a clear voice: "Don't tell me to die, I'm still alive, how can you die so easily?"

Floating in the air, she saw the young emperor Xie Shu, wearing a crown, thin shoulders, and wearing a black and gold robe, stepping towards Fengtian Gate step by step.

"Death by suicide..."

"Rokuro..."

Jiang Nan frowned slightly: "What if I die?"

"When the Hundred Ghost Camp was raging, the prince was not yet born. He didn't hate the previous dynasty enough, but the Holy Emperor had seen the evil deeds of the Hundred Ghost Camp since he was a child, and he had already reached the point where water and fire were incompatible! The emperor would never allow the blood of the previous dynasty. If you tarnish the royal family, even if you have children, you will still be killed!"

Xie Shu climbed up to Fengtian Gate, his head covered with blood, and drew his sword towards him.

The woman sitting on the Fengtian Gate was the newly named Queen Mother Jiang. She raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Nan floating in the air. Her eyebrows were exactly the same as those of the woman in the painting, and she showed a strange smile.

After a while, feeling her breathing gradually stabilize, Xie Yun asked: "What did you dream about? Are you so scared that you are crying and screaming?"

Jiang Nan was killed by her husband in her previous life, and was killed by her own son in this life. Jiang Nan was never so frightened in both lives.

Xie Yun: "...?"

The queen instantly turned cold: "What? Are you worried?"

Jiang Nan's heart softened, but when she thought of the Leping County Lord, her expression turned cold again and she snorted: "Liar."

"I am you, and I am the eldest princess of the former dynasty. So what if the men of the Xie family are brave and good at fighting? In the end, the world of Southern Liang is still bleeding with the blood of our Northern Liang royal family, so it's all in vain!"

Jiang Nan calmed down for a moment, looked at the Queen, and asked without thinking: "Does the Queen know that the Lord of Leping County has quietly entered the capital?"

"..." Jiang Nan was speechless for a moment.

"How could it be? My heart and eyes are filled with yours, and I can't live without you."

"Don't call me! I don't have a mother like you!"

Want to meet him.

There is nothing better than knowing a son like a mother.

"Royal Grandma, do you think the Othello chess piece I piled up looks like my father?"

Hearing this, Xie Yun suppressed a smile, looked down at her, and asked an unexpected question: "If you run away, I will chase you back! If you fall in love with someone else, I will snatch you back. Anyway, I won't let you leave me!"

The two looked at each other, and the fear in Jiang Nan's eyes lingered for a long time. Xie Yun hugged her into his arms, and she nestled in his arms. The familiar smell was on the tip of her nose, which gradually relieved some of her fear.

"I'm dead too."

Jiang Nan was horrified, but she was just a thought. No matter how she shouted, no one listened.

Because he was suddenly woken up, Xie Yun's voice was a little hoarse, as if he had been soaked in a jar and was muffled.

"What's wrong? Are you having a nightmare?"

Gui Cha's words were like a thing falling from the sky, causing the earth to collapse. Jiang Nan couldn't believe it and looked towards the entrance.

The queen's expression was serious, and she called for the palace servants to lead Xie Shu down. When no one was in the room, she said with a smile: "I was looking forward to how you could avenge Gu Jiao, but I didn't expect that you would also be filled with love."

"No, he was killed by the family member he cared about the most." Jiang Nan couldn't laugh, her eyes were calm and her heart was palpitating.

"It doesn't look like it! It's inappropriate to call me daddy all day long. You have to change your words and call me father!"

The queen was holding Xie Shu and laughing, and when she glanced over, she saw Jiang Nan sitting deep in thought, like a Buddha.

"Who are you?"

After a long time, Jiang Nan asked: "When you hold me, do you think of others?"

"How is that possible? You are just frightened. Drink some soothing soup tomorrow."

"..."

That year, Xie Yun returned to Beijing from a trip, accompanied by the beautiful and unique Leping County Lord, who envied everyone.

Everyone thought that his happiness was due to his acquaintance with the head of Leping County, and the time he spent traveling with her was unforgettable. But he was the prince, and he knew better than anyone else that the initial motives of the people around him were not pure. .

It just depends on who he wants to be used by.

The royal family was assassinated several times, and when the head of Leping County fled the capital overnight, Xie Yun just thought she was leaving without saying goodbye, without any reluctance. Unlike when Jiang Nan was sent to be married to Nanling, he went on a hunger strike to protest without eating or drinking, and he changed his mind ever since. one person.
