The people in front of the emperor are the most efficient in their work.WWW.tsxsw.COMWhen I left Feng Shuyi's place, only half of the guards guarding Cunju Hall were left.
Jinxi held my hand and walked out slowly. Seeing that the night was already dark, she deliberately took a long detour. Then she returned to the house behind the rockery in Shanglin Garden, changed into palace maid clothes, and quietly followed Jinxi back to Cunju.
Hall.
It was the time for the two shifts of guards to take over. Most of them were exhausted due to Concubine Hua's fuss just now. In addition, Xuan Ling had withdrawn half of the guards, and the remaining people were also slacking off a lot. Fangruo had already followed the instructions,
The food I gave to Meizhuang was given to the guards who were watching the night. A certain amount of Han medicine was added to the food, but after a while, the guards were already sleepy.
She quietly concealed herself and went in. Fangruo and Xiao Lianzi were already waiting inside. Xiao Lianzi whispered: "The mistress did not guess wrong. Soon after the mistress left, she went to Cao Jieyu's palace from the side door of the back hall.
went."
My breath suffocated. Although I had already guessed it was her, once I knew it, the mixed emotions of shock, anger and disappointment still surged into my chest. I remained silent, thinking that my face was extremely ugly.
Lianzi was frightened when he saw Da, and asked: "My lord, do you want me to go and detain her first?"
I tried hard to suppress my raging breath and said quietly: "No need. You just ask them to act as if nothing happened."
Xiao Lianzi was stunned and said: "Yes."
I said: "You should go back first. I will personally review her matter."
Xiao Lianzi bowed and stepped back, "I have parked the boat deep in the lotus bushes. The young master should not attract anyone's attention when he comes back."
I nodded, and when I saw him leaving, Fang held Fangruo's arm and said, "Auntie, thank you very much."
There were tears in Fangruo's eyes, "If the young master says this, he is going to kill the servant. The servant has to serve the young master from the mansion, so it is right for him to do his best for the young master." As he said this, he led me to the inner hall.
I have always been very familiar with Cunju Hall. Walking into the hall, you feel like you are in your own palace. Because of Xuan Ling's favor, this time last year, the place was full of chrysanthemums of various colors. The chrysanthemums include golden peony, yellow crane feathers, and golden peacocks.
, side marigold, warbler feathers yellow; white chrysanthemum has white under the moon, jade peony, jade treasure phase, exquisite jade, a ball of snow, Diao Chan worshiping the moon, Taiye lotus. Purple chrysanthemum has Bijiangxia, Shuangfeiyan, Jianxia silk
, Nao Pan, Purple Umbrella. Red chrysanthemums include beauty red, sea cloud red, embroidered hibiscus, rouge incense, brocade lychee, and crane top red. The light red ones include Buddha Seeing Smiling, Red Pink Tuan, Peach Blossom Chrysanthemum, Xishi Pink, and Yulouchun.
The colors are all of precious varieties. Among the chrysanthemums that resemble clouds and clouds, a shy smile of a newly married woman can be seen on the eyebrows and cheeks, rubbing in the light of satisfaction, she said softly: "Your Majesty treats me with sincerity."
People are really more beautiful than flowers.
However, time is short, only one year. The chrysanthemums withered and bloomed again, and the grand scene of the past was no longer in the Chrysanthemum Hall.
The soles of the palace maid's shoes are very thin, and there is a strange broken feeling when stepping on the fallen grass. In autumn, the smell of sparse grass and trees is faintly smelling. The dew on the grass and trees under the moonlight wets the palace shoes. Because Meizhuang fell out of favor, the palace was closed.
The slaves and maids were eager to be lazy, and they became even more lax in their service. As a result, weeds grew thickly, flowers and trees withered, and the autumn wind made the courtyard look even more desolate and desolate. Only a round of autumn moon was left, spreading its clearness over the lush weeds like a new eyebrow.
Hui.
When I turned around and entered the inner room, I saw Meizhuang standing at the door. He stretched out his hand to me from a distance. His eyes were hot and a tear was about to fall. I hurriedly ran forward and held her hand firmly.
hands.
Mei Zhuang's hands were unusually cold. Before I could speak, my vision was blurred, tears rolled down my face and I was sobbing. Mei Zhuang also sobbed, looked at me carefully, and then managed a smile and said: "It's okay. It's okay."
. Fangruo always said you were fine when he sent word, but I still didn’t believe it. Now it seems that I am relieved.”
I forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. I'm just afraid that something bad will happen to you."
As she spoke, Fang Ruo had already withdrawn to look out, her figure in Meizhuang had lost its former plumpness, and she held my hand tightly with her thin hands and walked into the inner room with me.
When I went in and took a look, I couldn't help but feel startled. I felt that the air was filled with a smell of decay. Seeing my expression, Meizhuang smiled sadly and said, "This is no longer the Cunju Hall of the past."
I was still surprised: "That said, you still have a position, but the palace is in such a state of decline. Those servants are going too far!"
Meizhuang stretched out his hand to light the red candles in the room one by one, and said: "Concubine Hua is so powerful. None of those slaves are accustomed to following the wind. They blindly worship me and trample me. If Youfangruo hadn't been secretly careful, I'm afraid I
I can't even survive today." As he spoke, a tear fell down, just like a burning candle. There was a soft "chi" sound, and a wisp of choking white smoke rolled up.
The candle seemed to be of extremely low quality. There was a pungent smell of soot when burning. Meizhuang couldn't help but cough. I quickly helped her sit down. The quilt and curtains were dark and ambiguous, and even the teapot looked unclean.
.I carefully wiped the bowl with silk, poured a cup out, and looked at the candlelight. I was glad that although the tea was not good, it was still drinkable.
Seeing Mei Zhuang finish the drink, I slowly said: "Don't worry. I will beg the emperor to let you out as soon as possible." This statement was not confident, and I inevitably felt guilty. When did Xuan Ling release Mei Zhuang, but I
There is no foundation at all. But now, I can only slowly comfort her, hoping to relieve her depressed heart.
Mei Zhuang just sneered, seemingly noncommittal.
The crescent moon shines on the window, like the pearly light of ignorance, and the smell of desolate vegetation outside the hall slowly pours in. The candlelight jumps and jumps, extinguishing the pungent smell of wax oil, and the red tears slide down drop by drop.
On the candlestick, it seemed like a sigh of resentment, reflecting the heavy brocade curtains stained with decaying dust, and it seemed like the desolate state of mind of Meizhuang and I at the moment, lost in the dim light.
After half a day, Meizhuang seemed to have calmed down a little, and then she said quietly: "I heard Fangruo say that you were not implicated because of my affairs, so I felt a little relieved. Fortunately, now that you have Lingrong, you are not alone anymore." She said.
After a pause, he stared out the window at the withered chrysanthemums on the ground that had been left unattended. After a moment, he came back to his senses and asked lightly: "Does the Emperor like the mausoleum very much?"
I was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It's not particularly good. But it's still far above the likes of Cao Jieyu."
Meizhuang said lightly, "Yeah," "That's pretty good. It's just that Lingrong is timid and afraid of getting into trouble. Although she is favored, you still have to make the decision if anything happens."
I agreed, but when I saw her emaciated figure, I couldn't help but say: "Don't be angry with that screwdriver slave, it's more important to take care of yourself. You can hear the noise outside today. It can be regarded as a sigh of relief for you."
Mei Zhuang nodded and said, "I heard it. It's just that she may not be so easy to deal with."
I couldn't help but sigh, "I can only take one step at a time."
My eyes gradually went down and fell on her still flat belly, and finally I couldn't help but ask: "Why did you get pregnant that day?"
Mei Zhuang smiled sadly: "Everyone said that I pretended to be pregnant to compete for favor, do you think so too?" Mei Zhuang subconsciously stroked his flat belly and said, "With the favor I had that day, why should I pretend to be pregnant and go to all the trouble to compete for favor?"
?”
I said calmly: "Of course you don't need to take such a trick. With the favor you have back then, it's only a matter of time before you get pregnant. So why bother with this?"
Meizhuang sighed quietly and said, "As long as you understand."
"Sister, they deliberately made you think that you were pregnant and got all the glory and favor, and then accused you of faking your pregnancy to compete for favor." I sighed and told her what I guessed: "I'm afraid I'll start with the prescription that Imperial Physician Jiang gave you.
, until he recommended Liu Fan, it was all arranged by someone. He took advantage of your eagerness for a son to lure you into the urn, and then used a trick to remove the fuel from the cauldron and expose it at the right time. "
Mei Zhuang said: "They set up this trap from the beginning, just waiting for me to fall into the trap." She tightly clutched the handkerchief in her hand, "It's all my fault that it's useless!" Two lines of clear tears came from her sad and angry expression.
Eyes dripping, "I didn't know that I was not pregnant until Fu Ling took out the bloody clothes and pants." Meizhuang's nails were already three inches long, and in grief and anger he could only smell "click"
"With a soft sound, the onion-like fingernails all broke off. I was startled, and Mei Zhuang's eyes were full of hatred, "They actually used the emperor's heir's affairs to plot against me!"
I can't help but feel sad when I think of Meizhuang's overjoyed mood after hearing about her pregnancy. How much she hoped to have a child to comfort her loneliness in the deserted night, and to consolidate the king's favor and the family's glory.
I comforted: "It's useless at this point. You know, even I almost fell into their trap. I wanted to support Concubine Hua to co-manage the Sixth Palace. If I hadn't brought her into the situation today, I'm afraid I would be in trouble with them in the future.
The mausoleum is in danger."
"I can hear clearly from inside." Meizhuang said sadly, "I'm no longer useful, I hope I don't involve you all." After saying that, he turned sideways and wiped his tears and said, "It's best if you can save me from the current predicament.
, if you can't, don't force it. You have to be careful when you are supporting the overall situation by yourself. You must not end up like me..."
My heart felt hot and I wanted to cry more and more. I was afraid of making Mei Zhuang even sadder, so I finally raised my head and held it back.
In the sleepy hall, the branches and leaves of the ancient trees swayed leisurely on the window screen, like the skinny claws stretched out by ghosts. The chirping of autumn insects became more and more lonely and cold in the middle of the night, directly touching my heart with waves of panic.
I tried my best to say: "Your Majesty...he..." However, I couldn't say any more. Xuan Ling's behavior towards Meizhuang really chilled my heart. The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold! I finally couldn't suppress the disappointment and sadness in my heart about the past.
, slowly said word by word: "Your Majesty...perhaps he is indeed not your beloved...what we prayed for sincerely in the past may not come true."
"Beloved?" Meizhuang sneered, almost harsh, "Even the wives and concubines of Qi people know that the so-called 'beloved' is the one a woman looks up to throughout her life..." Meizhuang bit his lips and said angrily: "He... how could he ever do that?
Let me look up to you and rely on you!" Meizhuang's voice became increasingly sad, as if he was drowning in the overwhelming weight of the past, "In the past, you and I spent long days together in the boudoir, just hoping to marry a happy man in the future.
From now on, I will get up early in the spring to pick flowers and wear clothes with him, light up the lamp in the cold night to guess riddles, add incense and stand to look at calligraphy and painting, and walk on the moss with the passing years. 1. Even though I know that I will marry a king one day, I don’t dare to expect that the air will be filled with sweet words and coquettish words.
Girlfriend, like a knife cutting through water, I hope he can trust me and take pity on me."
Meizhuang's voice was choked with excitement. Her words were burned into my heart, forcing the pain out of my throat. These words were the jokes in the boudoir in the past, and they were also the most sincere wishes of a young woman...
I reluctantly persuaded with tears in my eyes: "Don't worry, I've sent someone to investigate the matter they framed you. I think there will be results soon. Please be patient. When the truth comes out, the emperor will definitely compensate you well and return the favor."
You are innocent."
Mei Zhuang's sad smile showed a faint hint of disdain under the moonlight, "Compensation? Isn't it possible for him to compensate for the injustice and pain of these days? He holds me in the palm of his hand and abandons me like a clog, Your Majesty... He is really ruthless,
You don’t even care about your usual friendship at all!”
There was a vague and unknown fear in my heart, but I couldn't say it out. I just felt that my heart was like a floating boat bumping on the top of the waves in Meizhuang's words, and finally sank, sank...
Meizhuang just stared at my expression and said: "Perhaps these words may hurt your heart now, but if you are in such a miserable state as me, how can you understand the pain involved?" She paused for a moment and then added: "This honor in the past is today.
The down-and-out Cunjutang makes me think clearly, Jun's kindness is just like this." She looked at my increasingly complicated and unspeakable expression, and said lightly: "But the Emperor is very good to you, so he won't have me in the future.
On this day, you don't have to persuade me. You only went out to protect my Shen family. Your Majesty..." She smiled coldly and stopped talking.
I wanted to say more, but Fangruo had already knocked on the door and said in a low voice: "Master, please come out quickly. The guards' medicine will wear off quickly, and it will be difficult to deal with if they are discovered."
I hurriedly wiped away my tears and said: "At least take care of yourself, I will try my best to save you."
Meizhuang tightened my hand and said, "Take care of yourself too!"
Fangruo urged me twice more outside the door, and I reluctantly gave him a few words of advice, so I had to go out in a hurry.
The autumn night spreads with thin mist among the palaces and palaces of Ziao City, as if the most secret hands are exploring every cold or bustling corner or pavilion in this deep palace in the dark night.
The secrets and conspiracies of the world can make people feel at a loss anytime and anywhere.
I quietly avoided the guards who were watching the night in the palace, came to the place where Xiao Lianzi had arranged the boat for me in advance, and sneaked into the depths of the lotus flowers along the winding stone path.
The small one was not tied to the boat. When I got on the boat, it swayed slightly and made waves. I felt that the boat was too heavy. I didn't care about it for a moment. I just untied the rope that tied the boat. Just as I was about to paddle, I suddenly heard
There was a clanking sound of the soles of boots as a line of guards passed by. In a moment of panic, he hid in the small cabin.
Suddenly, my feet felt soft and slippery, as if I had stepped on something warm. I was so shocked that I could hardly scream, but the thing yelled "Ouch".
It was a man's voice! And it seemed familiar. Before I could say anything, I heard someone on the shore shout: "Who's in the boat?"
My heart almost jumped out of my chest, and it was rushing wildly in my chest. I closed my eyes and whispered, complaining secretly - if someone discovers it, all the efforts I have put in today will be in vain, and even Meizhuang will not be able to get away with it.
!
However, clear eyes flashed across the dark and cramped cabin, seemingly surprised and unexpected. He tightly covered my mouth with one hand, leaned out of the cabin, and lazily said: "Who is disturbing me?"
Sweet dreams?”
The voice was not loud, but it silenced the menacing voice on the shore. Someone said with a smile, "I don't know that the Sixth Prince is here. I'm really disturbing you. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Xuan Qing seemed impatient, yawned and waved his hand: "Go away. It won't disturb my interest."
Xuan Qing has always been informal, no one would mind why he is here late at night, not to mention that the Kaiyun Pavilion on the Taiye Pond is his old residence. Whenever he comes to the harem to visit the Queen Mother, he stays there when it is inconvenient to leave the palace, away from home.
Enter the concubine's residence.
The people on the shore seemed to be in a hurry. After hearing no movement for a while, he said: "Come out."
I "woo" a few times, and then he remembered that his hand was still covering my mouth, and hurriedly let go. I opened the curtain hanging on the cabin and looked outside, but my face felt as if it was burning.
It's going to burn.
He seemed uncomfortable and slightly embarrassed. He immediately noticed my unusual attire but didn't ask any more questions. He just said, "I'll take you back."
I didn't dare to speak, so I nodded hurriedly, as if to relieve my nervousness and confusion.
He pushed hard, and the boat slowly moved away from the shore for a few feet, and gradually rowed towards the center of Taiye Pond. As it got further and further, his racing heart slowly calmed down.
Kyoto, where Ziao City is located, is more southerly than Taiping Palace, so the summer heat has not completely subsided with the arrival of early autumn. Even the lotus flowers in Taiye Pond have been in full bloom for longer than those in Fanyue Lake. However, after all, it is almost time.
In the September weather, the lotus flowers in Taiye Lake are filled with a sweet fragrance that is almost decadent when they are in full bloom. On the contrary, the fragrance of lotus leaves, water chestnut leaves, and reeds is unique and refreshing. The lotus flowers in Shili Wind are gently trailing in the smoke and water.
, the pavilion terrace of the palace is hidden in the wind and mist, and the silk-red palace lanterns are reflected in the water in the distance. The lake is as beautiful as a stream of light, with gorgeous soft waves floating around. I feel like I am sitting on a ship full of stars and wandering, and I suddenly feel like a dream.
You can't help but be intoxicated by the beautiful scenery of the sea.
Seeing the lotus piled at the stern of the boat, I felt slightly confused and asked: "It's the end of August, and there aren't even many lotus pods left. Why are there so many newly bloomed lotus flowers for the prince to pick?"
He rowed the oar slowly, and his long figure was reflected in the lake water. His voice was as solemn as the wind under the pines, and he said casually: "Maybe this is the last bunch of lotus flowers this summer. Xiao Wang visited the depths of the lotus flowers at night, alarming the gulls and herons.
, so I have to go back and put these in bottles to keep them clean.”
I looked up at the clear moonlight and asked, "Your Majesty, do you like lotus flowers?"
"I only love it when it comes out of the mud but is not stained, and when the water is clear and watery it is not evil." He said with a gentle smile.
The flowing water murmured through the occasional sporadic conversations between me and him. As the boat passed by, the duckweeds separated on the sides of the boat gathered together again, as if they had never been separated.
Seeing that no one was there, I got out of the cabin and sat on the bow. My nose was very sensitive, and I smelled a delicate fragrance that was not like lotus, so I asked, "It seems to be the smell of Du Ruo? But it shouldn't be this."
All seasons.”
Xuan Qing said: "Jieyu's beautiful nose belongs to Xiao Wang." He looked up like a crescent moon, and smiled lightly like a wisp of breeze passing through the water, bringing up the moonlight on the water ripples like silver, "People in the mountains
Xi Fang Du Ruo 2, Doctor Qu Yuan wrote "Mountain Ghost" very well."
I covered my sleeves and smiled, suppressing the slight surprise in my heart, "It seems that the prince has found someone he likes?" He smiled without saying a word, and tightened his hands, and the boat started to move faster.
Seeing Xuanqing's leisurely mood, paddling along, his plain clothes and wide sleeves moving up and down in accordance with his gestures, he looked very far away. He couldn't help but smile and said: "It's so late at night, the prince is riding an untied boat on the Taiye Pond, and it's very late.
It’s leisurely, elegant and comfortable.”
He also responded with a light smile, looked back at me and said: "Zhuangzi said, 'A person who is full and traveling around is like a boat without a tie, and a person who is empty and traveling is the same.' 3 A person who is full and full all day long has nothing to do, and a rich and idle person has no choice but to travel and have fun.
"Suddenly he showed a stubborn look: "I didn't expect to be in the same boat with Mei today. It actually made Xiao Wang feel like he was riding with Xi Shi and rafting on Taihu Lake."
I looked serious and said, "If I didn't know the prince's true intention, I would definitely be angry. Please stop comparing my concubine with Xi Tzu."
Xuan Qing smiled indifferently, with a look of disapproval, "Why is it that Jieyu, like those common people, thinks that Xi Shi is a disaster for the country?"
I shook my head gently and said in a sweet voice: "If Xi Shi conquers the Kingdom of Wu, who will come after the Kingdom of Yue falls?"
He wondered, "If Jieyu is so reasonable, why did she say what she just said?"
The lotus flowers are picked lightly, and the fragrance fills the arms. "Fan Li is Xishi's lover. Xishi was born as a daughter, but was sent to Wu State as a concubine by her beloved. How unfortunate and sad. Even if she later abandoned her previous suspicion and went boating on Taihu Lake with her, I think about it.
It is no longer the girlish sentiments of Huansha in Zhuluo Village back then. She was young and beautiful and was sent to the enemy king as his concubine by her sweetheart Fan Li. When she came back to him when she was old, she lamented that Xi Shi's love was so unbearable."
He was startled for a moment, and a meteor-like exclamation flashed through his clear eyes. There was a smile on his lips, and his eyes were full of surprises that could not be locked. "Historical books either praised Xi Shi or scolded the King of Wu, but no one ever blamed Fan Li. Qing also followed
I have never heard such a high-level talk." He suddenly released the oar and bowed to the bottom: "Jieyu's wonderful thoughts, I can't help but sigh."
His sudden move caused the boat to sway lightly. I was startled and hurriedly grabbed the side of the boat. I felt embarrassed and said, "I only use myself to judge others. If a boudoir talks nonsense, the prince will laugh at it."
Perhaps because of the rocking of the boat, something suddenly slipped from his arms and landed on my skirt. He didn't notice it at all, but just said: "As Jie Yu said, Fan Li is not as good as Fu Cha. At least Fu Cha is better than Xi Shi."
It’s all heart-warming.”
I nodded and sighed, "Yes. Fu Chai devoted all his country's efforts to loving a woman. It's love, not pampering. If it was just pampering, he wouldn't pay such a price, but for an emperor, this is too extravagant."
He seemed to be hiding his feelings and sighed: "To spoil a woman but not to love her is the greatest insult to a woman."
There was a sudden movement in my heart. He said that he had never heard me say such a thing. And I had never heard anyone say his words before. Suddenly, it seemed that my chest was opening and closing, and Mei Zhuang's words were mixed with his.
Ruchao, stunned and speechless.
Women in the palace only seek the emperor's favor to protect their lives, and who dares to ask for love extravagantly? Even though I once had a glimmer of extravagant hope, I also understand that I am not like Xuan Ling.
He suddenly turned his head, his eyes passing over my face like a stream of light, "Jieyu seems to be touched by something from the bottom of her heart."
The orchid boat floated on the waves, paddling deep into the lotus flowers, the breeze came slowly, and the egrets rose and fell in the sparkling waves under the moonlight. Occasionally, a red carp came out of the water and splashed with water flowers. I responded in silence, and smiled as usual again for a moment.
: "Your Majesty is too preoccupied. My concubine is just discussing the matter and sighing that Xishi's beauty is ill-fated."
I don’t know why sometimes what he said always makes me so moved that I can’t speak. I lowered my head slightly and saw the lake water as thick and smooth as dark silk rippling silently. The palace maid’s dress I was wearing was a pure moon-white color, reflecting the
The flowing moonlight is faintly blue. A simple and elegant color falls on the skirt, but a tassel embroidered with gauze has its own soft luster.
The silver tassels and tortoise shell beads were obviously items worn by the man, and they should have belonged to the person in front of me. I should have returned them to him immediately, but somehow I couldn't hold back my curiosity. I saw him taking the oar again and rowing.
Without paying attention, I quietly opened it and took a look.
The tassel is as light as nothing, and a few Du Ruo flowers have been dried, like translucent yellow butterflies, still retaining their noble posture, and the faint fragrance is lingering. I smile knowingly, Du Ruo is a noble fragrant flower.
Just as I was about to put away the tassel and return it to him, I saw a soft piece of red at the bottom of the bag. I fumbled it out and looked at the moonlight, and I almost froze in shock. The light touch on my white palm was exactly what I was hanging on my back on New Year's Eve.
That little statue on the plum tree in the plum garden! Xiao Yunzi’s dexterous hands made the little statue’s face and smile appear every detail. Anyone who takes a closer look will know it’s me. It’s so unexpected! I’m confused and almost at a loss. I just feel that there are threads in my mind.
The tune of "Mountain Ghost" sounded, and he felt confused and confused as if coming from the other side. Across the illusory torrent of confusion, he could only chant repeatedly what he just said, "The people in the mountains are as beautiful as Du Ruo."
He just pushed the boat forward, occasionally praising the silvery moonlight and the beautiful scenery. I actually felt guilty. For a moment, I couldn't tell whether the person I had just talked with was the person who carefully collected my portrait together with Du Ruo.
It wasn't until the gold-chiselled rose hairpin on her bun slipped and hit her arm that she suddenly woke up from the pain. The gold-chiselled rose hairpin was one of the jewelry given to me by Xuan Ling a few days ago. I saw it was well made and the style was unique.
, I pinned it on my hair, and I didn’t even want to take it off when I changed into a palace maid’s dress. Who would have thought that it was polished so smoothly that my hair could hardly bear to loosen it. When I saw this hairpin, I immediately thought that I was Xuan Ling.
Regarding the fact that he loved his concubine, he quickly decided that it was best to pretend that he didn't know. He tried his best to calm down and put his mind in order, put Du Ruo and the little statue in the tassel and put them away, and then calmly called him, "The prince seems to have lost the tassel that he carried with him.
"
He took it and said "Thank you", and then carefully put it into his arms, not caring whether I opened it or not. It seemed that it didn't matter whether I looked at it or not, he just cherished the things in it.
In vain, I grasped the jade pendant hanging from the gold-threaded hibiscus purse on my skirt, and I didn't notice it as I moved my hands. I was just lost in thought.
When did he get it or how did he get it, I have no idea, and I can't figure it out even after thinking about it. I just feel that it would be very dangerous if someone discovered it if it was placed next to him. But when I saw him keeping it close to him, I couldn't bear to tell him.
Say this.
He was carrying me, who was full of worries, in a calm and gentle manner. He seemed to be talking about something that had nothing to do with him, "This tassel is something I love dearly. It would be a great pity if I lost it just now."
Only then did I hear him speak, and I woke up from my confusion and said, "Your Majesty, your words are serious. It's just a tassel." I sighed so quietly that only I could hear it, so I said reluctantly: "Since it is my beloved thing, please don't show it to me anymore, Your Majesty."
There is no limit to the trouble you can cause in front of others."
Before he could speak, the boat had arrived at the small ferry behind Tangli Palace. I picked up my skirt and stepped up to say goodbye. I remembered something, turned around and bowed with a smile: "I have a favor to ask, Your Majesty."
"But it doesn't matter."
"The concubine once encountered a little trouble in the palace, but fortunately the nobles came to her rescue. However, no matter what the prince hears about the night banquet at the Taiping Palace, don't tell anyone about your encounter with the concubine, just like tonight
Same. If the prince agrees, it will be a great blessing for the concubine."
Although he didn't understand what he meant, he still smiled and agreed, "No. Xiao Wang only treats it as a little secret between him and Jie Yu, and won't tell the third person." He added: "It's a small thing for me to be able to talk freely with Jie Yu.
The king's good fortune is like the breeze blowing through his ears. If you are lucky enough in the future, I should invite Jieyu to gather at Xiao Wang's cool terrace and talk freely about the past and present. Xiao Wang should be very happy about it."
I said: "The moon waxes and wanes, and people also pay attention to fate. Some things can be left to fate, and there are some things that it is useless for the prince to ask for too much. Midsummer has passed, and the cooling terrace is too cool, so I will not go there to disturb you."
He was absent-minded for a moment, and his left hand unconsciously pressed the place where Jin Ying had just been placed, and then said calmly: "Qingliangtai is warm in winter and cool in summer. If one day Jieyu feels that the weather is unbearable, you can also come and get together. The red mud terrace
The stove is willing to melt the cold frost for Jieyu." He lowered his eyes, and the edge of his lower clothes was wetted by the lake water, with an almost transparent texture. His voice gradually became lower, as if it was wetted by the lake water, "Qingye hopes, forever.
There is no such day."
There is an inexplicable sadness and emotion in my heart, as if I wake up in winter and the ice and snow in the garden have turned into flowers in full bloom. It is so beautiful and grand, but it is out of season, and it makes people dare not accept it, nor can it be accepted.
I will never fail to remember that my husband is the supreme being in the world, and he is my husband’s brother.

2 From "Zhuangzi: Lie Yu Ke": "A person who is full of food and travels is like a boat without a tie, and a person who is empty and travels". It means that a boat without a rope is carefree and carefree, which is fascinating.
3. The people in the mountains are as fragrant as Du Ruo: It comes from Qu Yuan's "Mountain Ghost", which means that the person I long for is as fragrant and clean as Du Ruo. It is a poem expressing affection.
