寢宮裡有絕望的氣味。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rvhCZOoRu

湖衣獨自躺臥床上，每一側身，她受傷的腳踝就無比刺痛，她盡可能躺著不動。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmHYmKuBsL
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6AW5P9aCc
皇上聽說她在樹林中受傷，無法下床，遣了正骨科的王太醫前來問診。太醫為她針灸放血，她才瞧見自己腳踝瘀血腫脹，她的知覺早已麻木，無論他人如何擺弄，都感覺不到疼痛。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8jtpoSC01
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyDKA43OD5
她不知日落月升，醒了睡，睡了又醒，醒著的時候，她內心清楚地知曉，自己身在宮中，被宮牆層層圍困，思念所愛卻不得見，無法逃脫；睡了以後，她總會陷在夢魘裡，不斷重複皇上寢宮內看見的那一幕，夢醒後她就無法抑止反胃。離別的滋味酸楚，絕望的滋味苦澀。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsFov84HXE
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp7D352aQ0
還是回到夢裡吧，在那裡她可以與他生死不離。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXe3rtoxPd

不知過了多少天，小紅和鶯兒進房為她梳洗，她才知道外頭已在準備拔營。連日來大雨如注，三大營的軍士不能外出狩獵，飽受陰濕之苦，今早驟雨初歇，皇上隨即下令全軍回宮。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUf6xtV1dpm

除了行動不便的湖衣，行宮裡所有人都在整裝待發，御馬監在為馬匹刷洗上鞍，宮監將各種箱籠抬上馬車，再一一綑緊，禁衛軍也穿戴了硬皮甲，司禮監諭令，御駕將在半個時辰後出行。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jSUcxnXsl
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuXxbXugai
馮瑛先將湖衣所乘馬車內的座椅几凳盡數卸下，再命宮人將湖衣抬進馬車，馮瑛自己則是策馬跟在馬車後方扶車。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nUl5l29SR
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzyeXgryR5
「主兒，王太醫特意叮囑過，千萬別移動傷腳，妳可得安靜地躺著。」馮瑛自車幃外探看。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALdbXEeyxi
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjNlgHDHTQ
「真的一定要回宮嗎？」湖衣問，光是想像就令她打了個寒噤。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCethhGaGyE
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqty4Nz4d79
半個時辰後，鼓樂鳴響。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2RLh3QdXc
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ElMQA17f6
無論如何不願，該來的還是會來的。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHjD1K4JYj
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68n4kzj1hJ
丹陛駕鹵簿起駕，導駕儀衛先行，隨後是鮮衣怒馬的騎兵隊及六行步甲隊，緊隨其後的是以幡、幢、旌旗組成的錦羅旗隊，及大批武裝騎兵的引駕儀衛，之後才是天子御輦。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwgMDib5mX
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhcpEhl9Mi
御輦前後有四十一名帶甲將士簇擁，兩側由左、右衛上將軍護駕，重甲騎兵和輕甲步卒無數。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJqS0UvhlJ
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJLJUWobrF
距離太遠，湖衣看不到朱玹是否在護駕隊伍之中，他與她終究有著跨不過的鴻溝，回宮之後，再難相見，密林深處那一晚，猶如夢幻泡影。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTDtEVRhHu
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQ2L561Nmi
御駕之後，又有後部儀仗隊、車駕黃麾仗隊、後衛部隊，待宮監女眷的馬車開始移動，已是一個時辰之後。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQpBkdtWmJ
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQekLiFoPVA
湖衣僵直著身子坐在馬車內，她的腿腳麻木，身子越來越冷，她憶起杏花開的那一天，因為她不顧父親禁令，執意和冰月乘坐馬車出城，才會招致天翻地覆的劫難。若是可以，她多希望能回到那一天，她一定會好好待在家裡，哪兒也不去，這樣就不會有此刻的心痛如絞。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXSbaUsvfI
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJXTgqEZtI
不知不覺中，馬車停了。湖衣坐起身來，掀開車帷一角往外查看，車駕已到桑乾河渡口。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PTuIZp5Td
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYe5TAcqS2
行前她便聽馮瑛說過，桑乾河是北直隸最寬闊的河流，每年春秋雨季常泛濫更改河道，又稱無定河。元朝大定年間，元帝為控管京畿的出入交通，修築了一座堅固的大石橋，名為廣利橋。正統年間再度重修，至今廣利橋依然還是進出京城的唯一門戶。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLekEhk455x
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmn75e2d3b
廣利橋寬二十五尺，橋面僅容兩輛馬車並排而行，工部為讓大批軍事和隨駕隊伍行進順暢，預先在石橋兩側添搭了臨時便橋，以便眾人加速渡河。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTOCVDLoFg
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5XnVndTkh
湖衣望向廣利橋和兩座便橋，便橋由木板搭成，兩旁以粗繩作成圍網。在石橋下，混濁的河水正猛力沖激橋墩，可知雨後水深湍急。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAyIlEGbfZ
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgA1QVvHp8
司禮監的傳奉太監在橋邊，依次引導御輦車駕行進，御駕鹵簿通過後，還有許許多多車駕隊伍在橋頭等待，分進合流之間引發不少混亂，眾人抱怨催促，渡口一片亂哄哄的。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51UqHrHXsa
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48ZOmUGdYc
湖衣索性在車廂內平躺下，不再去聽外頭的喧嘩，不知等了多久，馬車才開始移動，木橋橋身狹窄，只能容許單輛車駕通行，隨著車底傳來的吱嘎聲和令人不安的晃蕩，想來馬車已上便橋。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlzldy8L5t
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zkwOjdbfc
行到便橋中段，車身一震，馬車再度無預警地停了。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBchZleLlfo
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9QNtaPJU3
湖衣坐起身來，想查看車外景況，隱約聽見馮瑛激動的聲音自後方傳來，不知在喊些甚麼。她掀開車幃，發現韁繩、馬鞭被棄置一旁，車夫已不知所蹤，前面太醫院的馬車剛過橋頭，騎著馬的馮瑛被擋在橋尾，她位於便橋中央，橋上獨有她這一輛馬車，馮瑛又在橋尾不知叫嚷些甚麼，神情十分激動，湖衣心生疑惑，鼻子卻在風中捕捉到一絲奇異的氣味。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwx7i4kRdk
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqdg7Hvp2l
這味道她在朱玹的身上聞過，在神機營的營地聞過。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWzYdOGbKf
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDnZstbGS5
一驚之下，她即刻撲向車轅，拔下頭簪，朝前方馬臀狠狠扎下，馬匹吃痛後撒足狂奔，巨大的衝力拖著車廂，她用盡氣力拉住車幃，才不至於硬生生地摔了出去。一回神，幾道尖銳的破空聲自遠而近，湖衣疑惑地瞪大了眼睛，三支燃燒的弩槍朝向便橋飛來，她轉過頭，眼看橋頭就在前方，她的心懸在喉間，暗自祈求：趕緊的，只要馬車踏上對岸就安全了……236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZ3pH3H3bu
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn72SDcPru9
馮瑛永遠也忘不了此刻所看到的景象。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigiZ0vArBO
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsaSNm8Yb6
他被司禮太監擋在橋尾，看著湖衣的馬車單獨上橋，便心覺有異，等到太醫院的馬車到達彼岸，湖衣的車夫隨即自橋上跳河，他隨即意識到這是一場早已設下的殺局，他欲奔上前護主，橋口幾名太監拔出兵刃將他攔下。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzRMakgNYO
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWSzy1DroE
馮瑛一勒韁繩，朝湖衣不斷大喊：「主兒，小心！」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovhT9PaeAz
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWI5rDbDz2
湖衣應是聽見了他的警示，催動馬匹迅速前行，他目不轉睛地望著橋上，心中祈求湖衣盡快脫險，此時不知何處傳來一股刺鼻的焦油氣味，他四下環視，左側樹叢隱約透出火光，他馳前一看，林木亂石間藏有一座三弓床弩，有人正持著火炬點燃槍頭，電光火石間，三支燃燒的弩槍朝著湖衣所在的便橋飛去。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4y83fGSZdN
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUrHRdqV3b
不好。他心底一沉。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSczqlr1bZL
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnUS5tZazY
先是一記窒悶的爆破聲，接著是地動山搖的驚天巨響，便橋從中冒出一團火球，如同一個迅速綻開的血色大口，所有冒著火焰的撐架樑木皆遭吞噬，離岸只有一步之遙的湖衣，連同分崩離析的馬車一併墜落永定河中，掀起陣陣巨大的水花。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdQFNppN4X
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLB95zPmIyH
驟然驚變，位於便橋旁的廣利橋與第二座便橋雖然沒有爆炸，仍不免遭受些許波及，水花、燃燒的樑木石塊如雨飛濺，橋上眾人憂懼下一波攻擊，驚叫著向橋頭奔去，四周登時陷入混亂。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCW3JSkeS8o
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CiOFela8I
「皇妃墜河！皇妃墜河！快救人！」他扯開喉嚨大吼，救人如救火，多等一刻，危險就多十分。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEzA863grp
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4Zbf1vAty
湖衣始終沒能到達對岸。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kLNxZiOUA
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXn4CVEkwCg
隨著一個爆裂聲，一股強勁熱風將她朝下推，燃燒的馬車在空中支離破碎，她的身軀失速翻滾，然後筆直墜落，她眼前一黑，只聽見風聲在耳邊呼嘯。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf64vi0DLET
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP132ZhE973
死亡逐漸朝她逼近。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9YNCvjB0t
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFwsELXFcC
一堵水牆迎面撞來，她胸口一窒，劇痛之後，冰涼的河水灌入口鼻，本能的求生意志迫使她清醒，湖衣拚命划動雙臂，將頭衝出水面，她知道自己無法久撐，她需要一條船，一截浮木，或什麼都好。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uENGYdCSs
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwofKztMHzH
「皇妃，這裡，」湖衣抬頭向聲音的來源看去，站在離岸不遠的王太醫正將倒空的藥箱向她擲來，「接住！」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9xvKSXs5l
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gW1MqjJsK
湖衣依從太醫的話，咬牙拖住傷腿，奮力划水，死命攀住漂浮在水面的藥箱，但她氣力已竭，無勁再游向岸邊，只能任憑滾滾河水將她帶到離岸越來越遠的地方。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZadGwybSJR

爆炸絕不是意外。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4rlPzB4mo

從黑熊，到斷橋，有人真心想要她的命。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoRHwkEdfZ

在這宮中，是誰千方百計想除掉她？236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8op2MMtyCJ

不言而喻。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡye852Qz4s0
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREIayD2Hin
一道強勁水流朝她襲來，她好冷，又好疲倦，一是在死亡與夢魘中擺盪，河中礁石刮著她，劇痛令她無法呼吸，過去情境忽然在眼前閃現，她明白，她就要死在這裡了。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8DKRFN9Ig
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEFrFbI3Zx
凍僵了的十指無力再攀住藥箱，她沉入水中。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs4Lf7FUmI
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfKSftrhuG
意識逐漸模糊……不需要再掙扎了，似乎也不是太壞……再也見不到家人和好友冰月……如果可以……她好想再見他一面……那怕是一刻也好。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7aT1PLicf
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURJar4UDmQ
然後就是一片黑。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9pNPLgoMp
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGL9Awy1AL
好像有個人來了，環抱住她的胸口，將她向上拉……236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAI3SNrftW
