Rebirth of the Phoenix

invitation to death

"When you turn sixteen, I will ride a white horse, carry hundreds of miles of red makeup, and welcome you into the red tent. I will only paint my eyebrows for you in my life." The beautiful young man with peach blossom eyes squatted on the wall with a wicked smile, leaving this

The words and the jade pendant of love are gone with the wind.

Four years have passed and she has reached the age of seventeen. When he comes to welcome her, she comes to look for him, traveling thousands of miles and entering the palace just to be with him.

The young man who fell in love with her at first sight and made a vow of eternal love was Ye Qingge, the prince of the Dashun Empire.

After four years of not seeing her, she suddenly appeared in front of him. She had grown into a graceful and graceful girl. He must be surprised, right?

Thinking of his startled look, she bit her lip and smiled softly, subconsciously touching the dragon-carved jade pendant in the middle of her sleeves, her eyes flashing with amusement and her cheeks flushed.

The flickering candlelight reflected her flawless white jade face, making her look like a dream. How could the word "stunning" be used to describe it?

This narrow, simple, and old basement became full of glory because of her arrival. However, she was so overwhelmed by the joy of meeting the prince that she forgot to think about: How could the noble empress be in Shenzhen?

Meeting her in such a dark place when no one else is around?

Eunuch Ji who brought her here took one last look at her perfect profile, shook his head secretly, and quietly exited, leaving her alone.

He has been in the palace for many years and has seen countless beauties, but this is the second woman as charming and intelligent as she is.

The first one is the Queen, and the Queen will arrive soon, and the next thing will be nothing to do with him.

Nothing happened to her.

Because she is going to die soon, and she will die miserably.

The prince is a poisonous cup of wine, which is beyond her imagination.

Luo Hongzhuang was so immersed in the sweetness that she didn't notice that Eunuch Ji had gone out. It wasn't until the footsteps of several people sounded behind her that she came back to her senses.

"Are you Hongzhuang who has an affair with the prince?" A pleasant but cold voice came into her ears.

She turned her head and saw the woman in gorgeous clothes who seemed to have fallen from the sky. She was so amazed that she forgot to speak for a moment.

This woman is about thirty years old, her appearance is extremely beautiful, and her temperament is extremely graceful and luxurious.

She has a high bun like a cloud, her hair is decorated with beaded and jade phoenix hairpins, and she is wearing a gorgeous palace dress embroidered with golden phoenix. She has an aura of calmness and authority. Except for the Queen, who dares to wear a palace dress embroidered with gold silk phoenix?

Do you have such a maternal demeanor?

Luo Hongzhuang knew that she was beautiful. Many people said that she was the most beautiful woman they had ever seen, but standing in front of the Queen, she felt ashamed.

She was worthy of being the biological mother of His Royal Highness. Her face was almost exactly the same as that of His Highness. When she looked at this face, she suddenly felt respect and kindness.

"Didn't you hear what I said?" Seeing that she didn't answer for a long time, the queen's enchanting eyes flashed with a sharp chill.

Luo Hongzhuang woke up from her sharp look and knelt down quickly: "The daughter of the people, Luo Hongzhuang, comes to see the empress! Empress, the daughter of the people helped the prince four years ago and had a private life contract with the prince, but the daughter of the people and the prince

The prince is in love but only in courtesy. He has never done anything illegal. Please be careful, the Queen!"

"Did you help the prince?" The queen stared at her, "How?"

Luo Hongzhuang did not dare to hide: "Four years ago, the prince was ordered to go to Yaozhou to quell the rebellion. He was chased by the rebels and sneaked into the temple to hide. At that time, a civilian girl happened to be staying in the temple to study Buddhism. She accidentally bumped into the prince and helped him hide.

After passing those rebels, the prince and the girl fell in love with each other as soon as they met, so they made a promise and left the temple. In the past four years, the girl and the prince have not had any contact. "

The queen looked her up and down with a gloomy look on her face: "How old were you then? What did the prince say to you then?"

Luo Hongzhuang said: "The common girl had just turned thirteen at the time. She was ignorant and had no in-depth talk with the prince. The prince only said that he would marry the common girl when she turned sixteen. The common girl kept waiting and never saw her again until she turned sixteen.

The prince will come to pick him up..."

Disdainful laughter reached her ears. It was the maid next to the queen who was laughing at her. She closed her lips and did not dare to raise her head.

The queen sneered: "The prince is famous for being a beautiful woman, and he is also famous for being a romantic. Do you believe what the prince says?"

Luo Hongzhuang said very forcefully: "People's daughters believe in the prince!"

The prince was indeed born well, and he also had a pair of peach-blossom eyes that were disturbing to people's hearts. His smile was always naughty, but there was gentleness in his eyes, and firmness in his evil smile. She just knew that his gentleness and firmness were

seriously.

Seeing how determined she was, the queen smiled: "I thought Hongzhuang was something special, but it turned out to be just a fool! I think that all the good things in this palace have been disturbed by a fool like you. How can I not let you pay the price?"

Eliminate the hatred in my heart!"

Hey, what does this mean? Luo Hongzhuang raised her head, when had she ever disturbed the Queen's good affairs?

She is a girl from a distant border town, and she has saved the prince. What trouble can she cause to the Queen? Why is the Queen so angry?

The queen was too lazy to look at her again, turned her head and shouted sternly: "Here comes someone!"

Who did the Empress call? Luo Hongzhuang looked at the Empress and the two maids behind her who looked gloating, completely confused.

"My servant comes to see the Queen—" When Luo Hongzhuang was confused but didn't dare to ask, the stone door behind the Queen suddenly opened, and several big men walked in and knelt in front of the Queen.

These big men were dressed in black attire, with cold eyes and a sullen look on their faces. At first glance, they were not good-natured people.

When Luo Hongzhuang saw them, she kneeled back subconsciously. An ominous premonition quickly arose in her heart: Since it was a secret meeting, why did the Queen ask these men to come? Why didn't anyone explain to her what was going on? And here.

, where is it again?

She looked around furtively.

There are thick rock walls on all sides, and there is no other exit except the stone door behind the Queen.

There was a stone bed in the corner. The stone bed was covered with sheets that were so dirty that you couldn't tell what color they were. Other than that, there were no other furnishings in the basement.

The air is filled with an unpleasant musty smell and moisture. This place is like a dungeon!

The word "dungeon" made her tremble, and she immediately noticed the dark red stains on the floor and walls.

No, that's not a stain, that's a blood stain - a dark red blood stain that has seeped into the ground and stones!

An ominous premonition came to mind.

She suddenly raised her head and looked at the noble and beautiful Queen, and then she thought: What did the Queen want when someone brought her to this place?

"Get up." The queen looked at the big men kneeling on the ground as if they were dogs, "You have served me for many years, you have been loyal and have made many achievements, and I have specially chosen a beautiful woman to comfort you.

, you should enjoy this gift tonight and don’t leave any residue behind."

Luo Hongzhuang was so shocked that she almost fainted: Did she hear wrongly? How could the Queen say such a thing?

She couldn't believe what the Queen said, but she also didn't dare to doubt her ears: If the "woman" in the Queen's mouth didn't refer to her, who else could it refer to?

But why did the queen do such a terrible thing to her?
