The Flower Guarding Bell Chapter 1: The princess died for the country

Published:

Spring in the 20th year of Shengyuan

The Western Regions committed Chen.

Li Changqing, the leader of the Hu tribe, raised his troops and smashed the capital of Chen Guo.

The mountains and rivers were broken, and there was chaos in the palace, except for the woman in a red wedding dress.

She is Xiao Qingxue, the famous Qing Yun princess of Chen Guo.

But at this time, she is already a princess of a subjugated country.

Her country is broken, and the people she misses are broken.

Xiao Qingxue ignored the palace servants who were fleeing everywhere and lingered under the blooming peach blossom trees.

“Princess, the palace gate is broken, let’s escape with the slaves!”

“Hey! Are you stupid? She’s already crazy, let’s go and ignore her.”

“But—”

“But what, if she hadn’t let go of the traitor, Chen Guo would not be destroyed now. The emperor has committed suicide, how can she still have the face to live in the world? Let’s go!”

Xiao Qingxue didn’t seem to hear the condemnation and scolding of others, but just focused her eyes on the bell in her hand.

“He said that no matter how far away, as long as the wind bell rings, he can always hear it.”

She murmured, looking up at the sky full of bright eyes, and slowly hooked her lips.

“The peach blossoms are not over, he is back.”

It’s obviously spring, but there are bleak scenes everywhere, crying and corpses everywhere.

Xiao Qingxue was wearing the most luxurious wedding dress, standing on the city wall, under the delicate makeup, her eyes were numb.

Under the city tower, the red, even brighter and more coquettish than peach blossoms, stretches to the sky.

Blood…into a river…

“Li Changqing, is this the red makeup you want to show me?”

The advancing iron cavalry army soon approached the capital, and at a glance, she recognized him as the leader.

Beside him, he has long been accompanied by another woman, she has already heard about it:

Na Yunzhe, the daughter of the chief of the Hu tribe in the Western Regions, was an important force in helping Li Changqing conquer Chendu.

Li Changqing, after all, joined hands with his beloved woman to destroy her country.

The eyes meet, and it has been thousands of years at a glance.

Then, she smiled.

“The husband in my mind is an unparalleled hero. One day, he will come to marry me in armor and red makeup.”

The words are still in the past, how are people today?

“Li Changqing, are you watching? You are watching…”

She tightened the flower bell in her hand, slowly closed her eyes, two lines of clear tears fell, the smile on the corner of her mouth became more and more flamboyant, and she opened her arms.

He moved slowly under his feet.

A red figure leaped down the city wall several feet high.

History:

In the twentieth year of Shengyuan, Chen Guopo was broken, and Xiao Qingxue, the princess of Qing Yun, died for the country.

Li Changqing ascended the throne and proclaimed the emperor, and changed the reign name Shengyuan to the first year of Zhihe, and the tribes of the Central Plains and the Western Regions were unified since then.

Qinyang Palace, the bedroom of Princess Yun of the Qing Dynasty in the previous dynasty, but at this time, a group of maids dressed in different servants came in and out.

They are all carefully taking care of a woman.

A few days ago, the new emperor canonized the queen and four concubines, and the unconscious woman was named Jieyu.

For several days, the woman on the bed showed no sign of waking up.

The dream is even more wandering.

In a daze, Xiao Qingxue seemed to see a familiar scene again——

In the palace hall, the five-color glazed lamps are bright, the silk and bamboo music is loud, and the concubine dances, a group of harmonious music.

Suddenly, the music stopped, and the lights in the courtyard suddenly dimmed.

Under the dark night, a group of women in white dance dresses entered the team with night pearls in their hands.

The pearly light is warm and not burning, and it reflects the palace at this time.

Under the bright moon in the clear night, the flowers rained down, and a fairy fell against the pipa.

After the dance, in the face of her father’s teasing, the woman even more proudly said:

“The husband-in-law in my mind must be an unparalleled hero. One day, he will come to marry me in armor and red makeup.”

At the banquet, she spoke astonishingly, with such brilliance and glamour.

Under the seat, a teenager stared at the woman on the field, his eyes shining brightly.

Xiao Qingxue was like a bystander, looking at all this, there was only pity in her heart.

The screen changes suddenly.

Under the peach blossom tree, someone has a pair.

The boy was already in armor, and he was covering the woman’s eyes at this time.

“Are you okay?”

“Okay.” He slowly opened his palm, which was a bell with a concentric knot tied underneath.

The smile on the woman’s face narrowed when she saw what was in his hand, holding the bell and looking left and right.

The teenager became nervous, “what’s the matter? Don’t you like it?”

“Other men who give women gifts are all made of jewelry, how come they are just a broken bell when they come to you?”

The woman raised her hand and gestured to throw it.

“Stop!”

The young man hurriedly protected the bell in his arms, “This is a flower-protecting bell. Don’t you like peach blossoms? Tie it to a tree to scare the birds away. In this case, before the peach blossoms I’ll be back before it’s over.”

“You talk nonsense!”

I don’t know which sentence touched the woman, and her eyes turned red.

“General Li said that this expedition will be as short as half a year and as long as two or three years. When you come back, all the flowers will be gone! The battlefield is ruthless, I don’t know if I can come back alive, and you still want to fool me!”

“Ah Xue, don’t cry, I’m wrong, am I wrong?” The teenager comforted in a hurry.

“Old man Li is all nonsense, he still expects me to marry your daughter-in-law, how could we not come back? I promise you, I will propose to the emperor as soon as the war is over, I haven’t How can you easily die if you see Shili Hongzhuang?”

The woman’s sad mood was so gag by him that she was angry and ashamed, and snatched the bell.

“Who’s going to marry you!”

“You won’t marry me? Okay, then give me the bell back.” He scratched her nose and gestured to grab the bell.

“Think beautifully!”

The situation changed immediately.

Two years of fighting, one victory.

She thought she could marry a good man, but a criminal edict of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country blocked them.

The Li family was destroyed, and all the nine clans were killed.

She doesn’t believe it, but she can’t ask her father to take back her life.

In desperation, she disguised herself as a servant and went to prison and secretly released him.

Broken bowel slope, the two say goodbye.

“Let me go, aren’t you afraid of becoming a sinner through the ages?” His expression was mocking and indifferent, no longer the gentleness of the past.

She held back the grief in her heart, “I believe in you.”

“Trust me? Haha.” His eyes were filled with grief, anger and hatred, “It’s a pity that your royal father doesn’t believe me! The Li family is gone, and the entire clan is gone. Just because I have half of the barbarian blood in my body? He knew my identity a long time ago, but he just waited until the Li family army quelled the riots, your father, my sage, good, good!”

“Changqing, don’t do this…”

“Don’t call me, I can’t stand it, Qing, Yun, Gong, Zhu.”

The woman slumped on the ground with a pale face, but this could no longer provoke any pity from him.

“I, Li Changqing, hereby swear that one day, I will make your father’s Chang’an City, no more! No! Chang! An!”

He left, in such a decisive way, without looking back at her.

But he didn’t know, letting him go privately, she endured far more than he imagined.

“Pop—”

“You evil obstacle! Let the tiger return to the mountain, are you willing to kill my Chen country!”

She never raised her head, the corners of her mouth tasted **** salty, but just held the bell in her hand tightly.

“He won’t, won’t…”

“The person here is to imprison Princess Qingyun in Qinyang Palace. No one is allowed to visit without my order.”

“Uh-“

The image in my mind stopped abruptly.

Xiao Qingxue stroked her chest, which was in severe pain at this moment, gasping for breath.

“My lady is awake? My lady is awake!”
