When Li Chang came back, he was very sad when he mentioned this matter, "As soon as the letter from the empress arrived, the emperor was very worried.WWW.tsxsw.COM" Seeing that I just laughed it off, he added: "Everything in the palace has been taken care of. Soon
You can take your empress back home, but the emperor said that living in Lingyun Peak is not very decent, so she has to go to Ganlu Temple to stay temporarily for two days, and then take your empress back from Ganlu Temple."
I nodded, "The emperor's arrangement is that there will be no objection if I come to Ganlu Temple."
Huanbi sneered again and again, raised her eyebrows and said, "If we go back now, I don't know what that little guy from Ganlu Temple will be like. I feel happy just thinking about it!"
Jin Xi was packing her clothes that day, when she turned around and saw Mo Yan coming, with a calm expression as usual, cold and lonely. Following behind him was Anu, who made a living by ferrying in the long river at the foot of the mountain.
I wondered: "What a coincidence today, it's rare for you mother and daughter to come together." As I said this, I let them come in and sit down.
Mo Yan looked around my meditation room and said, "You are living a good life. You are at ease alone after all."
She may have said this unintentionally, but when I saw her, I felt a layer of guilt and shame. In the past, she told me about our past, and I vowed that I would never return to the person who betrayed me.
By my side, now that I am about to return to the palace, I feel desolate and ashamed.
Thinking like this, it seemed that Mo Yan also had endless thoughts, each holding a cup of tea, relatively speechless.
After a long time, it was Mo Yan who spoke first, "I heard that the emperor wants to take you back and leave soon?"
The tea cup in my hand was slightly tilted, and the tea almost spilled out. When I heard from someone outside the palace that I was going back to the palace, I suddenly felt that it was true. Returning to the palace had become an unchangeable foregone conclusion. My heart was filled with joy.
The coolness was like drinking a mouthful of ice water in winter. The coolness penetrated the mouth and tongue, making it numb. I lowered my face and said in a low voice: "Yes, it will only last for three to five days."
She said "Oh", "Then I came by chance." She calmed down, and her dim eyes suddenly flashed with a strange dark light, "Mo Chou, I have something to ask of you."
She used the title she used in the past, and I smiled slowly and said, "Fortunately, you called me Mochou. If you called me empress, I would definitely not agree to what you asked me to do."
She smiled slightly, with a touch of sadness in her smile, "There will be many people calling you empress in the future, not to mention that you may not be very willing to be this empress."
I just smiled and said nothing. She took Anu's hand and said solemnly: "I entrust my daughter to you. You can take her to the palace."
This sentence was so unexpected that I asked in surprise: "What?"
Mo Yan was very calm, as if he had thought it over carefully, with only a hint of paleness on his face, "Anu is not young, and cannot make a living by ferrying people all his life. After all, he is a girl, so is it possible that he will be in public all his life? What's more, she is at this age.
, there are usually too many men who make trouble for nothing, and she has a temperament that just doesn’t like men. As a mother, I have to find a way out for her. "
Anu stood quietly beside her mother, with a coquettish flush on her pale face, and a pair of originally clear eyes that seemed like an unfathomable abyss filled with mist. I let out a long sigh and said, "Mo Yan, you and I
I have been in love for several years, and I will not hide it from you. Instead of entering the palace, it is better to become a monk. There is no better place to be treated in the palace."
Mo Yan's face became paler, like a piece of fine rice paper without any color. There was a sparkle in her eyes, but she was a stubborn person. That sparkle was reflected in her long and heavy breathing.
She endured it. She bit her lip and said harshly: "Ganlu Temple refused to take her in, saying she was not a clean person!" She turned away, her voice trembling slightly, "Ganlu Temple refused to take her in.
Other temples are even more unwilling to take in people."
I was shocked, "You mean..."
Mo Yan nodded, with a sad look on his face, "Not bad."
I felt sad, "When did it happen?"
"More than a year ago." She said, "Mo Chou, I regret so much. I shouldn't have let her ferry alone at the foot of the mountain and let her suffer such a big pain."
I closed my eyes and said with bated breath: "Who is he? Has he reported it to the official?"
"The huge crowd..."
Anu's expression was painful and confused, and he suddenly screamed, "Mom! Stop talking! Mom——"
I went over and hugged Anu's shoulders and comforted her softly, "Yes, it's all in the past. Anu, we won't mention it again. We forget about it. Keeping it in mind every day will only make ourselves uncomfortable." I turned around.
Looking over his shoulder, he looked at Mo Yan with a heavy expression, "I'll stay with Anu. I'll take her into the palace."
Mo Yan's expression relaxed slightly, "As long as you are willing. It's just that Anu is as stubborn as me and I'm afraid it won't be easy to train him."
I shook my head, "Anu is very smart, I will slowly teach her the rules." I looked at her and said softly: "Anu, I just ask you, are you willing to follow me into the palace?"
Anu's expression was as panicked as a wounded animal, "I just want to go to a place without men. Mobile phone visit: wàp."
I hugged Anu and said softly: "Don't be afraid. There is only one man in the palace, and the palace is the place with the fewest men in the world. But the life in the palace is very hard, are you afraid?"
Anu's voice was low and firm, "I'm not afraid."
Mo Yan shed tears unconsciously, "Mo Chou, then Anu will be entrusted to you."
The wind of late spring is mixed with the bleak atmosphere of the mountains. I know that once something happens, it will be the ice that will never melt in life. Even the warmest spring breeze cannot melt it, and I can only keep it in my heart day and night.
, pierced my heart and lungs. I was so sad that I said quietly: "Mo Yan, we are both women. If women can't help each other, who else can help us? What's more, if Anu doesn't leave here with me, just
She is afraid that rumors will drown her."
Mo Yan choked and nodded, holding my hand tightly, "Mo Chou, I know you are willing. When you go, Anu will accompany you and take care of you."
It was as if a cold wind was blowing into my eyes, and everything in front of me was filled with white mist. I cried, "Mo Yan, when I told you that I would never go back to the palace..."
Mo Yan patted me on the shoulder and said gently: "You are different from me. Your own child is not with you. Mothers are always reluctant to let go of their children."
My heart softened and I couldn't bear the sadness. I pulled Anu and forced a smile: "Since you want to follow me to the palace, you can't call me Anu anymore." I thought slightly, "Anu is just your little one anyway.
My name is Hua Yi now, do you like it?"
Anu nodded, with a hint of innocence still in his tone, "I will follow you from now on. If you protect me, I will naturally protect you."
I smiled, "Yes. I will definitely protect you and prevent you from being bullied again."
In the evening, I went back to Ganlu Temple for a temporary stay. It was still the small courtyard, but it was clean and seemed to have been scented with incense. There was a strong fragrance when I entered. Jing'an had already attracted people waiting outside the door.
, her expression was as kind as usual, but the others had long ago changed their expressions to respectful ones. I was disdainful in my heart, but I didn't show it on my face, and I just talked to Jing'an and didn't mention it.
Huanbi looked around, sleeved her hands and sneered: "Why don't you see Master Jingbai? In the past, she was always the first to worship her, so why don't you see her when the empress comes back to stay temporarily?"
I called out "Huanbi..." and everyone looked at each other and didn't dare to answer. In the end, it was Jing'an who said, "Jingbai is ill. I'm sorry that I can't see you."
Huanbi had a cold face and frowned silently, Jinxi smiled and said: "Master Jingbai may have a heart disease, it's unknown. That's all for today. In a few days, the palace will welcome the empress back, and the temple will be closed. Master Jingbai can't help but be ill."
Now, let’s take good care of her.”
I ignored them at the moment and just stayed quietly. Ganlu Temple was very diligent and considerate, and I just looked at their trembling faces and sighed. When I got up that morning, Jinxi combed my hair, and the combs were drawn carefully.
There was an alarming chill on his scalp. Jin Xi said softly: "I heard from Li Chang that a canonized envoy has come to the palace, and he is preparing to come in the afternoon to announce the decree to take the empress back."
I looked at my temples as thin as cicada wings in the mirror and said lightly: "That's fine, so as not to have long nights and lots of dreams."
Jin Xi smiled and said: "The emperor attaches great importance to the empress, but I don't know who he invited to be the envoy. Is it the Duke of the country or the prime minister, or even a clan relative?"
I said indifferently: "The purpose of canonization is important, who cares who is the canonizer?"
Jin Xi nodded and said: "That's what the Queen said. It's just that if I want to return to the palace now, there are some things that the Queen must give up. For example, heart. It's not cruelty, cruelty is also intentional. What I want to do is to be cruel, not without
Heart."
I turned around and held her hand earnestly, "Jin Xi, except for you, no one has said such things to me."
"Jinxi is ashamed," her gentle voice contained deep apology and self-blame, "Jinxi has lived in the palace for decades in vain, but he can't protect the empress in the slightest."
I smiled slightly and said, "You have tried your best. As you said, how can a person with a heart compete with a person without a heart?" I calmed down. Outside the window, the weather was getting warmer in early summer, and the warm wind was blowing my mind.
His thoughts became even colder, "Xuan Qing is dead, I have no heart anymore."
In the dim yellow bronze mirror, there seemed to be a thin shadow like a blood-stained sharp edge in the dark bottom of my eyes. I pressed my heart, and when I raised my head again, my eyebrows had been replaced by tenderness like water, graceful and graceful.
Flowing waves.
At this hour of the day, the sunlight was as thick as gold, so bright that it was hard to open one's eyes. The weather was very clear in early May, and even the sky condensed into a bay of blue and clear autumn water, which was particularly high and far away.
However, I thought with sadness that some people, even if they see through the autumn water for the rest of their lives, will never see them again.
I dressed up according to the etiquette, and Yingying stood alone in the courtyard. Li Chang smiled and called Qian'er, "Tell the empress to wait for a while, please accept the order."
I bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, father-in-law."
There are pomegranate flowers blooming on trees in the small courtyard. Such gorgeous flowers are rarely found in pure temples. However, in May, this flower is the most beautiful and enthusiastic. It blooms in full swing without any intention, and the entire nectar is
The temple is hidden in such a rich red color.
I knelt down, and the necklace in my bun hung down between my brows, feeling a slight chill. Li Chang's voice was the unique high-pitched voice of an internal prison officer:
I only praise the palace to promote the celebration, rely on Roujia, and award the title to share the honor. The Zhaoyi Zhen family is gentle and courteous, and has a kind heart. I sacrifice my position to pray for the luck of the country, and cover myself to pray for prosperity. I have my heart. , can be regarded as a model of the Sixth Palace. I once admired the empress dowager's kind words and was registered as the second-grade concubine, and was given the title "Wan". At that time, I was only respectful, Cheng Qingze's new direction, Yi Maorou, Jiayuan Hongpu and Yu Youyong .Qinzai.
There was a momentary stagnation in his expression. The imperial edict had been issued, and his life was determined, and there would be no turning around. In an instant, it was as if ice water was pouring down on his face, and even his hair was frozen. He could clearly see a crack slowly crossing the sky. From the bottom of my heart, which was as solid as ice, after the crashing sound, the cold and sharp ice pierced my heart. In this life, as long as I was by his side for a moment, I could not escape the word "Wan".
Li Chang smiled happily and handed the imperial edict into my hand, "Congratulations to your Majesty, your Majesty means good luck in three days. Please ask the envoy to bring you back to the palace. - Your Majesty has no idea who the noble person is. It's really good luck. Where is the noble man from Italy!"
He trotted to the door, ushered someone in, and said, "Your Majesty, please."
Someone walked in with colorful fallen flowers all over the ground. I thought it was the King of Qishan or the King of Pingyang, and I just lowered my head.
The man didn't seem to look at me. He just smiled lazily and said to Li Chang: "Which beauty has your brother fallen in love with? I have to ask the king to go to the temple in person to greet me. I heard that the Ye family was canonized last time, but please forgive me, father-in-law. Run to the Liger Garden to proclaim the decree."
Li Chang said repeatedly: "I'm ashamed, I don't know. I scared the old slave almost to death that time. There was a tiger crouching behind Yan Chang Zai. No one except Chang Zai could coax him away."
There was a bang in my ears, like thunder, and countless tiny insects buzzed in my ears, chirping and flapping their wings - how could there be such a similar sound in this world? How could it be?
I couldn't wait to raise my head, and wherever I looked, the man was wearing a moonlit sea-blue sea sapphire patterned dragon-going sea robe, a crimson white jade fish and dragon evergreen belt around his waist, and a sapphire gold-winged crown on his head. He stood with his hands behind his back. On the side of several clumps of green bamboos, his eyes were deep and soft, like the clear eyes filled with flower shadows. The bamboo shadows were sparse, and falling on his tall figure were the soft curves of light ink. He just stood there quietly. There, you can enjoy all the romance alone.
There was a hot and powerful surge in my heart, and I felt that the ice that had been holding on to my heart was instantly melted by such a warm current. My whole body was so happy that my hands and feet were so weak that I couldn't move at all, and I was almost exhausted. However, like this The joy lasted only a moment, but my heart became colder and colder, so cold that I knew there was no turning around, so I just shed tears. It was as if countless huge waves were hitting me, Xuanqing! Xuanqing! I could hardly believe it, I couldn't believe it. Her eyes and feet moved instinctively, and she just wanted to throw herself into his arms and cry loudly, crying away all the hardships and grievances.
Li Chang smiled and said: "My queen is so happy that she cried."
He seemed to feel something and turned around. His face suddenly turned white and colorless. He seemed not to believe his eyes, "Huan..."
Before his voice could reach the ground, he suddenly uttered a delicate exclamation, "Your Majesty—" but he saw a beautiful blue shadow flying out, throwing herself into his arms and crying.
There was a sadness in my heart. It was really not my imagination. Even Huanbi knew that he was back. He was not dead! He was not dead!
When everything was a foregone conclusion, when there was no room for change, he came back.
Li Chang said hurriedly: "Hey, what's wrong with Miss Bi? It's a great joy for the prince to come back fine. The girl is crying like this." After saying that, he smiled at me and said, "The prince just came back yesterday and he was safe and sound.
, unscathed, the emperor was so happy that he stayed overnight in the palace. This is a great blessing for our great Zhou Dynasty. The emperor thought that the prince would be blessed with endless blessings, just like the empress, so he specially invited
I asked the prince to be the canonization envoy!"
Although Jin Xi was surprised and saw something was wrong, she stamped her feet and winked at him and said: "We are reunited after a long separation. Why are you causing trouble here? Get out quickly!"
Li Chang rolled his eyes, patted his head and said with a smile: "So that's the reason. Why is Miss Bi crying so much? No wonder!" After that, he hurriedly led the people out.
Xuanqing helped Huanbi away with one hand, his eyes only fixed on me. The joy of meeting again after the disaster was filled with so much surprise and disbelief. Jinxi quietly pulled Huanbi from Xuanqing's side,
He smiled and said: "It's your Majesty's great day. What does it matter if the girl wets her clothes with tears? Let me go with you and change into happy clothes, so that the prince and your Majesty can have a good talk."
Huanbi raised her head with tears in her eyes, but she felt very embarrassed. She looked at him reluctantly, then looked at me, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is safe and sound. I will offer incense to the Bodhisattva right now." After that, he said.
He blushed and hurried into the house.
Jinxi was blessed and hurriedly chased after Huanbi. She passed by me, took the imperial edict in my hand, and whispered in my ear: "Now that the imperial edict has been issued, nothing can be turned back. The empress must think
It's clear." She emphasized the word "Empress" very hard to remind me of my identity at this time. After saying that, she sighed quietly, "I'm afraid that if I act emotionally for the moment, I'm afraid I'll have endless troubles in the future."
I stood in a daze. He approached me, the smile on his face was light and thin, like a green sunlight leaking through a thousand-year-old iceberg, with a deep chill; and like a man flying through the forest with deep night fog.
The light of a few fireflies is weak and distant.
He said lightly, as if mocking himself: "Empress?"
These two words were like two irons being branded heavily on my heart. I could almost smell the smell of burnt flesh during the pain of breathing. I was in so much pain that I couldn't speak. I endured it for a moment, then regained my composure and managed to say: "I am.
The palace has become Concubine Wan, and the prince has come to meet her in person. The prince has worked hard all the way."
"Your Majesty?" His eyes were full of sorrow, which was unbearable. He cupped his hands and said, "It's just April. I didn't want the world to change so quickly. My wife has become a queen." He took a step back and said, "I haven't heard this from my queen for a long time.
The title, Qing Dajue, is unfamiliar."
His tone was like blaming me, and it was like stabbing me in the heart. However, what's the use of my defense? Can I tell him the reasons why I can't talk about it?
"Farewell in April? Things can change so quickly overnight. The prince is still the prince, but I am no longer a useless concubine." I composed myself and said with a tearful smile, "It would be great if you came back.
Already."
The sun was so fierce that it burned my mind. I opened my eyes slightly and saw the pair of eyes that were holding back the same anxiety and pain as mine. "I have endured so many hardships and fought so hard to come back. If I hadn't been thinking of you——
Huan'er, I want you to come back. But when I come back, I have to see with my own eyes your thousands of honors and favors being welcomed back to the palace and welcomed back to the imperial brother." He staggered back two steps and said hoarsely: "I
I would rather die than ever come back!" He paused, "If I don't come back..."
Reality is like a dull and heavy rusty knife, cutting off all the love between me and him. I burst into tears, "If you don't come back, you won't know that you left only four months ago. I will not hug you 1;
If you don't come back, you won't know that I couldn't wait to return to Zi'ao City and your imperial brother after I thought you were dead. If you don't come back, you will always think that I will be waiting for you and looking forward to you.
, waiting for you to come back at Lingyun Peak, you won’t know that I am such a heartless and unjust woman." I choked with sobs and said heartily: "I am such a heartless and unjust woman."
The wind blew by, and the leaves rustled, like a rapid icy rainstorm. The sunlight fell through the tiny gaps in the leaves, as if a high wall had been set up between him and me that had no temperature and could not be climbed.
At this moment, we can no longer be lovers.
"Heartless and unjust..." He murmured for a long time, looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, with tears welling up from the corners of his eyes.
I couldn't bear to hear it anymore, and I couldn't bear to see it anymore. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to bear it, I couldn't help but throw myself into his arms and ask him to take me away; I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to bear my attachment and my longing.
He turned around in panic, and the wind blew away the bright red pomegranate petals all over the ground, leaving blood all over the ground like weeping.
Where does the fragrant soul go? The pomegranate flowers are all over the ground.
I left alone, leaving him alone, his clothes fluttering, disappearing in the wind.
Note:
1 Don't hug the pipa - Bai Juyi's "Pipa Tour" poem has the sentence "There are few cars and horses in front of the door, the boss is married to a merchant's wife", and "I came out after calling for thousands of times, but I still hold the pipa half-hiding my face". Later, "Pipa" is used.
"Don't hug" is a metaphor for a woman's remarriage. Meng Chengshun's "Parrot Tomb Zhenwen Ji·Crying Tomb": "I tried hard to bury the beauty in the green grass, but how can I carry the pipa back to Nanpu without losing the Luan Jin Shu?" This is the most accurate.
