Many years later, until Mu Fulan grew up, she still couldn't forget the scene when she was six years old, when her aunt Yu Fengyi Palace died, and every word she said to herself that night.

My aunt was the number one beauty in Changsha. In addition to her beauty, she was also famous for her virtue and talent. Later, she was chosen by the empress dowager and entered Fengyi Central Palace, becoming the queen of the dynasty.

What a glorious thing this seems to be.

This dynasty has been established for more than two hundred years. At the beginning of its founding, it was enfeoffed to the world. In addition to the royal vassal kings who were enfeoffed in various places, there were also several meritorious officials in the surnames, who were awarded the kings of different surnames for their merits.

The ancestors of the Mu family were honored as one of them. Due to their extraordinary achievements, they were granted the title of King of Changsha and governed Yuezhou and Tanzhou. From then on, the Mu family moved to the south and lived on the shore of Dongting for generations.

The King of Changsha has kept in mind the teachings of his ancestors. The King of Foreign Affairs contributed, and asked for help in spring and autumn. He governed the country's borders internally and loved the people as his sons.

The country has been passed down to this day. Several kings of different surnames in the dynasty were either demoted or eliminated from the country for various crimes, and the rest are still in danger.

Only Changsha, although the country is small, was diligent in the past kings, and they loved the people, kept a low profile. In addition, they were located in the remote south, and relying on the 800-mile Dongting and the Yangtze River, they were not only far away from the disputes between the Central Plains, and the country was peaceful and peaceful. Now, the sister of the King of Changsha, who is deeply loved by the people, was selected by the Tianjia, who was far away from the central government.

What a glorious and proud thing this is for the people of Changsha.

The aunt left Yuecheng on the shore of Dongting Lake and was sent to Shangjing for the year after her aunt was not born.

But since she became sensible, she has heard the old nannies at home say that she looks very much like an aunt. When talking about the grand scene of Wang Mei leaving Dongting, everyone's face still has the pride brought by the glory of the day.

Although my aunt had never seen Xiao Fulan, she probably heard about this little niece who was portrayed by her appearance, and she always cared about Fulan.

Since her birth, gifts from the capital have been constantly coming from all over the world. The little Fulan is also full of longing for the legendary queen aunt who is far away in the Shangjing Palace, and has always been looking forward to seeing her aunt in her heart.

She often prayed devoutly to Emperor Junshan and made a secret wish.

The god seemed to hear what she asked for.

When she was six years old, her wish was finally realized.

That year, the queen was pregnant, and the King of Changsha and his wife were allowed to enter the capital to congratulate.

Fulan was taken by her parents and her brother, and she traveled through mountains and rivers. She was busy and had been walking on the road for nearly a month, and finally arrived in Shangjing.

Fulan originally thought that Yuecheng, where she grew up, was the most prosperous city in the world. The home on the shore of Dongting Lake, which was called the "Royal Palace" by the people of Changsha, is the best place in the world.

It was not until I came to Shangjing and saw the prosperity of the Emperor's Capital, and then I saw the place where my aunt lived called the "Imperial Palace" that Fulan realized how much she thought she had in the past.

The palace in front of me is endless, and even if you have enough eyes, you can't see the end at a glance.

Such a thousand acres of glazed glass, jade steps and red courtyards, can’t be said to be golden and blue, and painted buildings and flying buildings.

The Fengyi Palace where my aunt is located is even more carved and jade-made, and the gold-shop is bent.

In the magnificence that was fascinating to the eyes, Fulan met her aunt, the most noble woman in the palace.

The aunt dressed up like a fairy girl in the sky, and was as beautiful as a fairy girl in the sky. She smiled and ignored Fulan's mother's dissuasion, let the little Fulan sit on her lap and print a warm kiss on her cheek.

My aunt and Fulan looked exactly the same as they imagined.

My aunt likes Fulan, and Fulan also likes her aunt so much. Later, when her parents brought her brother back to Changsha, Fulan was kept and continued to accompany her aunt in the palace.

With Fulan's knees in her arms, my aunt's belly grew bigger and bigger, and finally it was the day of giving birth.

What Fulan didn't expect was that her aunt had difficulty giving birth and then had a bloody sanitation.

The prince was not able to save him shortly after falling to the ground.

My aunt was lying on the phoenix bed in Fengyi Palace and had been in a coma for three or four days.

During these three or four days, Fulan always prayed to the Emperor Junshan in his hometown Dongting in his heart, praying for the blessing of the gods, so that his aunt could overcome this difficulty safely.

In the mind of the little Fulan, the Great Emperor Junshan is the most capable and pity between heaven and earth.

Every year at the Spring Equinox, parents would prepare five animals, take Fulan, brothers, and officials from Changsha, abandon their carriages, walk devoutly, climb up the top of the mountain from the foot of the mountain, and worship the Emperor Junshan.

It is precisely with the blessing of the gods that Changsha can have good weather and good harvests.

It was also because of the god's request that she came to the capital and met her aunt.

However, this time, the god of Junshan no longer listened to her prayers.

Late that night, she was tired of crying and accompanied by her aunt's side, and she suddenly woke up when she fell asleep.

There seemed to be a song coming from nowhere in the palace in her ears.

"... There is Kunming in the southwest, and the golden bird comes out of the sea... the pearls and turtle brains are spitting out golden chips like millet..."

"...If you don't accept Pi Hanjin, how can you get the emperor's heart...If you don't accept Pi Hantian, how can you get the emperor's pity..."

The little Fulan didn't know what the song she heard meant. Later, she grew up and realized it.

Legend has it that there is a coughing golden bird in Kunming, which flies in the distant sea. During the reign of Emperor Ming of Wei, the country came to offer birds and feed them with real pearl turtle brains. The birds spit out gold chips like millet to make hairpins. The beauties wear them and look more and more handsome. The emperor looked at the head and stopped and loved them. The palace servants competed to use the gold spitted by the birds as hairpins. It is called cold-proof gold, because the birds are not afraid of the cold.

The palace is heavy, the singing is fluttering, accompanied by the swaying candle fires blown by the night wind beside me. The resentment seems to come from the underworld. In this unvoiced palace, it is particularly creepy late at night.

During the six months of living in the palace, Fulan also heard the goddess of the little palace tell herself mysteriously that in a place called the cold palace they could not see, there were souls that had not dispersed for hundreds of years. Sometimes, in the middle of the night, the palace ladies in the palace who were full of yin energy could even hear the sings of complaints coming from that direction.

Fulan originally didn't believe it.

How could there be no resentment in a place like the bright and magnificent palace?

But at this moment, she was horrified to find that a strange singing sound seemed to float into her ears.

What made her even more frightened were the palace men and female officials watching the night.

They didn't respond at all. They were tired and secretly napping on the pillar, or were in front of the phoenix bed, holding tears to treat the palace ladies all day long, but still unconscious at this moment.

The resentment songs in my ears are intermittent, as if they are still continuing.

At this moment, Fulan saw her aunt who had been unconscious for several days. Her drooping eyelashes trembled slightly, and then slowly opened her eyes.

My aunt woke up and looked blankly at the satin tent embroidered with peonies on her head. After a while, Fulan saw her lips slightly fluttering and murmured something.

Her voice was so weak that it was almost unaudible, but Fulan could see it, and her lips were repeating the erratic song just now.

If you don’t accept the cold gold, how can you get the emperor’s heart?

If you don’t accept the Han Dian, how can you get the emperor’s pity?

"aunt!"

Fulan called out, rushed to the phoenix bed, grabbed her aunt's hand, with tears in her eyes, and a little surprise.

The palace servants and female officials nearby were alarmed and surrounded them.

My aunt's face was as white as if a layer of snow floating on the top of Junshan Mountain fell.

After a while, she slowly turned her face, put her cold fingers gently on Fulan's little hand, and ordered everyone around her to go out with a faint voice.

The palace servants and female officials silently withdrew from the inner hall.

The ethereal song in my ears came without a trace and left without a trace.

Everything is silent, and the ears are clear.

The aunt said softly: "Lan'er, sing a song that your father climbed Junshan to sacrifice for a good harvest, and that our people in Changsha..."

"Auntie hasn't listened to it for many years. I want to listen..."

Fulan hurriedly wiped away her tears, nodded vigorously, and sang the song she was very familiar with:

"Yi Tai Emperor, his wisdom is like a god, and he will divide the time of the flowers and help me to be born."

"Yi Tai Emperor, his achievements are as good as the sky, and he will be equal to the four seasons, and he will achieve my good fortune."

The girl's voice circulates in the empty and deep palace of Fengyi Palace, tender and ethereal, like the sound of nature.

The corners of my aunt's lips slowly raised slightly.

Fulan sang over and over again, and after singing this song, he sang another one for his aunt.

My aunt was listening at first, and slowly, she seemed to be tired and closed her eyes.

After a while, Fulan heard her murmuring: "...Prime Minister Yuan, how are he doing now..."

Fulan was stunned and stopped.

She once heard her mother tell herself in a nostalgic tone that Prime Minister Yuan of Changsha was the right-hand man of his father, but a few years ago, he was already ill.

Prime Minister Yuan never married for life, leaving only an adopted son who was said to have been picked up by the wolf's nest in the deep mountains in his early years, named Han Ding. After the Prime Minister passed away, his mother took the child to the palace to raise him and regarded him as his own. He was a few years older than Fulan and obeyed Fulan, just like Fulan's other brother.

"Aunt...Prime Minister Yuan... He is already sick..."

Fulan didn't understand why her aunt suddenly asked Yuan Xiang, so she hesitated and replied in a low voice.

My aunt didn't move, and her eyelashes suddenly trembled again. She slowly opened her eyes, as if she woke up again.

"...Yes, he has gone...I forgot..."

She said to herself in a low voice that was almost unaudible.

"Aunt! You have to get better!"

An ominous feeling, like a tide, swallowing all the little Fulan and the whole person.

She lay on the side, her little hand tightly holding her aunt's soft and wet hand, crying while crying.

My aunt raised one hand with difficulty, gently wiped the tears from her face with her fingertips. Her beautiful eyes stared at her and said softly: "They all said that my aunt is the number one beauty in Changsha, but when I saw you, I knew that when Lan'er grows up in the future, she will be a beauty in our Changsha."

She smiled and said word by word: "Lan'er, you will definitely be lucky than your aunt in your life. Your aunt will pray for you and protect you."

She held Fulan's hand hard.
