Dawn is approaching, and Kyoto is shrouded in a dense night.

A carriage arrived at the corner gate of the palace, and the coachman came down and knocked at the door.It took a long time for the door to open, when a young eunuch poked his head out and said impatiently, "Token."

The coachman respectfully took out the token and handed it over.The little eunuch took a look and said, "In the Queen's Palace?"

The coachman said, "Yes."

The little eunuch nodded, and called a few people to open the gate to let the carriage in.There were two little girls and an old servant in the carriage. The older one looked about eight or nine years old, and the younger one seemed to be only three or four years old.The little one is now clinging to the big one, curled up and motionless.The big and small face was twisted into a ball, and there was a worry that didn't match his age.

These two little girls, the older one is called Ouyang Jiao, the younger one is called Ouyang Wan, they are the orphans of the current empress Ouyang Meiqing's clan.Because the empress had no children, she specially brought these two little girls under her knees. Everyone said that the empress really had a compassionate Bodhisattva heart to take care of the two little orphans.

The old servant woman in the carriage had a coffin face, rigid and expressionless.Seeing that she was approaching the palace soon, she let out a sigh of relief.The carriage stopped, and the coachman said outside: "You two ladies, please get out of the carriage."

The old maid opened the curtain, and she roughly grabbed Ouyang Wan from Ouyang Jiao's arms and carried her out of the car.Ouyang Wan's eyes were opened by such a movement, and she saw that the old servant with a coffin face was holding her. The little girl kept twisting and trying to break free from her, but finally seeing that the old servant did not let go, Ouyang Wan grabbed the old servant with her paw. Face, shouted: "Sister, sister."

This old maid is Zhang Momo in the Queen's Palace, she always has her eyes high above her head, how can she see these two little orphans brought by the Queen from the family?

Ouyang Jiao is okay, what she said is what.But this Ouyang Wan is obviously a Hades temper. If you scold her, she will scratch your face, and if you hit her, she will never cry, but just stare at you with big eyes, and she will still catch you later. Her face was blooming, and Nanny Zhang's face was never better than the bloodstains from Ouyang Wan's scratches all the way.

Along the way, Nanny Zhang didn't want to hug Ouyang Wan anymore, now that she finally arrived at the palace, she actually did it to herself again.Zhang Momo's face turned pale with anger, she really wanted to pinch her severely, but she knew that if she pinched this little Hades, her old face would still bloom, so she had no choice but to hold back her anger.

When the older one got out of the car, Nanny Zhang put the dead child into Ouyang Jiao's arms, and said in a rough voice: "Young servants can't serve the young miss, please take good care of her."

Ouyang Jiao took her younger sister silently, held her hand firmly, and led her to the queen's bedroom without saying a word.

Empress Ouyang Meiqing was combing her hair and putting on makeup at this time, when the maid outside came in to report: "I want to report to Empress Empress, the two young ladies have arrived."

Ouyang Meiqing said lazily: "Well, let them wait outside first, let Qi Shiwei come in first." The maid agreed, and after a while, a person came in, it was the coachman just now, who was also Qi Shiwei.

Qi Shiwei knelt down and saluted, "I pay my respects to the empress."

Ouyang Meiqing said: "Well, get up."

Guard Qi agreed and stood aside with his hands down.

After Ouyang Meiqing finished her makeup, she waved her hand to let the maids go down, and she said, "Guard Qi, how do you look at the two little girls?"

Qi Shiwei said: "The two ladies look like delicate flowers, and they must be celestial beauties when they grow up."

Ouyang Meiqing let out a "huh" and said, "Where are their parents?"

Qi Shiwei said: "The parents of the two ladies met bandits when they went out to do business, and they died already."

Ouyang Meiqing nodded: "Very good. You did this beautifully, and I will definitely reward you well."

Qi Shiwei said: "Thank you, empress, this is what a humble job should do."

Ouyang Meiqing said: "Well, let's go down."

Guard Qi saluted and went out. He was respectful on the face, but he was thinking in his heart: The Empress herself has no children and wants to adopt two girls from her clan.It was good intentions, but she made people kill the child's parents and relatives.Poor those two beautiful little girls, they don't know that their aunt looks beautiful, but her heart is like a snake. Hey, I don't know what kind of punishment they will suffer in the future.

Qi Shiwei thought about it, but he didn't delay. When he arrived at the side hall, he asked Madam Zhang to lead the two girls to meet the queen. Looking at the thin and thin backs of the two little girls, Qi Shiwei shook his head, sighed, and turned to leave. up.

Ouyang Jiao and Ouyang Wan had been taught etiquette by Nanny Zhang, and when they saw Ouyang Meiqing, they kowtow respectfully.Ouyang Meiqing saw that although these two girls were not tall enough and young, they could still foresee that they would be beauties in the future.She was very satisfied and asked, "How old are you?"

Ouyang Jiao said solemnly: "I am nine years old this year, and my sister is four years old."

Ouyang Wan looked at the smiling woman above, always feeling that she was fake.Children always get close to people according to their own preferences, so Ouyang Wan also made sure at once: she doesn't like this empress.

After Ouyang Meiqing said a few words, she stopped talking to the two of them and let Zhang Momo and Wang Momo take care of them.

In the following year, Ouyang Jiao and Ouyang Wan saw the queen Ouyang Meiqing dozens of times that they could count on their fingers.

After all, Ouyang Jiao was older, and after a while she realized that their aunt was unreliable.

The two sisters entered the palace as commoner women, and many princesses and wealthy ladies in the palace looked down on the two sisters.Ouyang Jiao could bear it and pretend she didn't hear their sarcasm.Ouyang Wan has a strong self-esteem and has a short temper. After she beat up those women who spoke ill of her until they cried, many people dared not directly mock her in front of the two sisters.Although Ouyang Wan said she was angry, she was punished severely by Ouyang Mei afterwards, she had no food, and shutting down the small black room was a common occurrence.

After Ouyang Jiao discovered Ouyang Meiqing's attitude towards their sisters, she wondered why their aunt from afar wanted to let their sisters into the palace, because she really didn't seem to like children.Ouyang Jiao really wanted to know the purpose of letting the two sisters enter the palace after the exchange, but she couldn't ask Ouyang Meiqing directly: Why did you let us enter the palace?

After many days and nights of contemplation, Ouyang Jiao decided to make friends with the people in the palace and those powerful women, to see if she could learn something

Ouyang Jiao spent so much time making friends with others, she naturally ignored Ouyang Wan.

Ouyang Wan has no friends since she entered the palace, she followed Ouyang Jiao's butt all day long.Ouyang Wan doesn't like those princesses and noble daughters, and finds them annoying when they speak in a strange way.But later Ouyang Wan found out that her sister liked to be with those noble girls whom she hated, and had a good time, so she couldn't help feeling depressed.

She was just a five-year-old little girl who lost her parents overnight, came to this cage-like palace, there were many rules, her sister didn't care about her, and gradually resentment arose in her heart.

Ouyang Jiao has a delicate mind, and gradually Ouyang Jiao found that her younger sister's character was not as cute as she was when she was a child, and she became a little eccentric.Ouyang Jiao was worried about her sister, so she reprimanded Ouyang Wan several times.Every time Ouyang Wan listened to Ouyang Jiao's reprimand, she always had a sullen face, and then went her own way, not taking what she said to heart at all.

After a few times, Ouyang Jiao found that her sister was still the same, she was annoyed, and took a chance to reprimand Ouyang Wan, but Ouyang Wan was still the same.In a hurry, Ouyang Jiao patted Ouyang Wan on the back twice.

Ouyang Wan was beaten by her sister, and immediately said: "You are not my sister! If you have a new playmate, you don't want me, and you forget about your parents. You only like those princesses and daughters, and you don't want me anymore." At the end of the talk, he started to sob and cry.

Ouyang Jiao choked as if struck by lightning, "I... I never forgot my parents, I... I didn't forget you, you, you... how could you say that about me?" After that, Ouyang Jiao Also whimpered and cried.

Seeing that the two young ladies were crying so much, Wang Momo asked the queen for instructions. Ouyang Meiqing frowned and said, "Children are really annoying. Lock them in the side hall and starve them for two days." After that, she took off her shoes and went to bed. .

The nanny got the instructions and locked the two into the side hall.Few people come to the side hall of the Lizheng Palace where the empress lives, and it is deserted and remote. The two sisters are locked up here and they don't make any noise. The two of them stare at each other, relatively silent.

At night, there was only one flickering candle in the hall, emitting a faint blue flame, and the wind whistling outside the hall, the two sisters trembled in fright, thinking that it was a ghost coming.In the end, the hostility of the two was finally offset by fear, and they hugged each other and cried bitterly.

The two sisters shared their concerns, and Ouyang Jiao said, "I, I don't care about you." She thought for a while, and felt that the younger sister was only five years old and she didn't understand what she said that the queen was not right, so she just said: " I think there are some things that I don't understand, I want to understand, and then I will tell you."

Although Ouyang Wan didn't know what her sister didn't understand, but she knew that her sister didn't want her, so she became happy again, and leaned against her sister's arms, acting like a spoiled child.Ouyang Jiao was very happy to see that her younger sister treated her as usual. The two sisters reconciled as before.

Two days later, Ouyang Meiqing released the two and criticized them a bit. Seeing that the two sisters repeatedly admitted their mistakes, they left them alone.Although Ouyang Wan still doesn't understand her sister's thoughts after this incident, she knows that her sister has herself in her heart. Although she still feels a little sour in her heart, it is not as uncomfortable as before.

Since she couldn't play with her sister, Ouyang Wan went out to play by herself every day.Ouyang Meiqing didn't care about the two of them, and naturally she didn't care where they went to play.

On this day, Ouyang Wan abandoned the maids and eunuchs who were with her and was wandering alone in the imperial garden. She happened to find that there was an old attic in the southeast corner of the imperial garden. She was curious and walked over there.

When she got closer, she found that it was the old Zangshuge.There are two library pavilions in the imperial palace, a new one was built a few years ago, and the former library pavilion is here to hold some old and unused books and some miscellaneous books.Ouyang Wan went to the door and looked around for a while, only saw an old eunuch basking in the sun, but no one else.
