"No, don't leave me."

Su Cixuan woke up suddenly. The heart-wrenching panic in her dream still clearly lingered in her mind, and the corners of her eyes were full of tears.

She stared blankly at the gauze curtain, her heart still throbbing in pain, and it took her a long time to regain consciousness.

Then, Su Cixuan smiled miserably. Even in her dreams, she was unwilling to give her some warmth. She was always alone. Such dreams had been going on for many years.

Closing her eyes, the scene of being abandoned in her dream gradually became clearer. Su Cixuan no longer felt sleepy, so she put on her clothes and got out of bed, gently opened the window, everything was quiet, and the thin moonlight shone on her face, which was absolutely beautiful.

Revealing endless loneliness and coldness.

A sound of light footsteps sounded behind him, and the concerned voice of the palace maid Jinyu was heard: "Princess, can't you sleep again?"

Su Cixuan turned around and said apologetically: "Jinyu, I woke you up."

"Did the princess have another nightmare?"

Su Cixuan smiled faintly, but asked: "Jinyu, are you homesick?"

Jinyu looked at her in surprise, a little confused as to what kind of nightmare the princess in front of her had had, and she would ask her this question. How could she not think about it? It was just that she had been elected to the palace, and she had not yet

When he was old enough to leave the palace, he replied: "It's useless for me to think about it, so I simply don't think about it anymore."

Then, Jinyu asked tentatively: "Princess, are you homesick?"

Su Cixuan's eyes dimmed, and she said with a faint smile: "I'm not as lucky as you, I have no home to think about." As she said that, she turned and looked out the window again, her eyes were very far away, as if through thousands of rivers and mountains, but she could never find her.

focus.

"Princess, you are so noble and noble, you are not comparable to this slave. You have broken my slave." There was a hint of fear in Jinyu's voice.

Gold is noble and jade is noble? Su Cixuan thought about this word carefully and smiled to herself.

Jinyu stood behind her, wanting to say something to comfort her, but she didn't seem to know what to say.

After being silent for a long time, Jin Yu advised worriedly: "Princess, it's late and cold in the night, and your health is important. It's only midnight now, so you'd better rest."

Su Cixuan turned back to her and smiled reluctantly: "Don't worry about me. You go back and rest first. I'll be alone for a while. I'll rest naturally if I feel sleepy."

Jinyu knew that persuasion was useless, so she responded: "Then slave girl, go and guard outside."

Su Cixuan nodded. After watching her close the door and go out, her thoughts flew far away.

She seems to be as noble as Jin Yu said. She is a princess personally named by the emperor. She was raised by the Queen Mother and grew up in the palace. Her father is the Ling Prince who guards Lingzhou and has a prominent background. But none of this seems to have anything to do with her.

, the scenery is just for people who don’t know what’s going on, she only has a false name, but inside, she is just a hostage who was chosen and abandoned.

Perhaps, she is not even worthy of the word "hostage".

When Su Cixuan was seven years old, her father Su Zhenliang led an army to defeat the invading Yueluo Kingdom's 100,000 troops in Lingzhou. The emperor was so pleased that he immediately named Su Zhenliang the King of Ling, and his fiefdom included the eight counties of Lingzhou. Because of Lingzhou

It was an important military town on the border of Ning State, so the emperor sent Su Zhenliang and his family to the Lingzhou fiefdom to guard it.

Although Su Zhenliang is a military general, he is not a rough man. He knows why the emperor is anxious to transfer him away from the capital. He holds military power, but now the border is not peaceful, and the emperor cannot do without him for a while.

How not to be afraid? Fortunately, Su Zhenliang didn't like the intrigues in the Kyoto regime, let alone the twists and turns of people's hearts, so he readily agreed to the emperor's dispatch.

Just when the family was preparing to move, Su Zhenliang was summoned to the palace by an internal official. His wife, Liu, only thought that the emperor and his ministers were discussing military matters and didn't take it seriously.

However, after Su Zhenliang came back from the palace, he saw his eyes were dark and his face was solemn. Mrs. Liu saw that her husband looked wrong, so she panicked and asked him what happened when the emperor announced that he had entered the palace.
