King's man

One day Qingping had lunch with the emperor, and was chatting and laughing, when she saw Sixi approaching quietly, she slipped away without saying a word.Qingping knew that he must have something to say in front of the emperor, luckily the emperor didn't pay attention.For a while, Qingping bid farewell to the emperor and came to the side hall, calling Sixi to her. "What's the matter?" Sixi approached with a smile, holding out a paper fan with both hands, "Please look, my lord!" Qingping opened the folding fan, and saw a picture of pear blossoms in misty rain on it, with a line of words written beside it: Pear Blossoms in March in Spring City Open, Yiren Pingting divides the rain.The signature was Murong Su. "Junior brother, I want you to tell me something else." Seeing the young master's smile, Sixi felt that the sun was shining brightly in front of her eyes, and a sense of happiness spontaneously arose in her heart. "I hope to see you in Tanqing Garden at sunset in seven days' time." Sixi imitated Ji Kuan imitating Murong Su Shi's tone, but his expression was full of admiration.Qingping put away her folding fan and smiled.It's about to happen.

At the end of the day, Qiuping thought maybe Concubine Yu had woken up from her nap, so she went to Yueying Garden.Entering the courtyard from the back door, I saw Yingxiu and Sendjin teasing a cat in front of the hall, it was Concubine Yu's favorite hydrangea, she brought it with Yingxiu when she entered the palace.Sending brocade was later assigned to Yueyingyuan on duty.Qiuping approached on tiptoe and asked softly, "Sisters, is Concubine Yu awake?" The two pointed to the hall and shook their heads.The three chatted for a while, Yingxiu took Qiuping into the inner room.Sending Jinsu knew that Yingxiu Qiuping and Yingxiu Qiuping were selected from the same county, and they had always had a good relationship, so he was not suspected.

"I want to thank my sister for sending me the hair flower last time! Even the son said it was beautiful." Qiuping was not restrained at all, and sat casually by the bed when he entered the room, "I also brought something good for my sister. , guess what it is?"

Yingxiu also sat beside her, without guessing, she leaned over and said, "Bring me to see!"

Qiuping took out the folding fan and handed it to Yingxiu, and said with a sneer, "Master Qingping said that Yingxiu's sister is gentle and graceful, very lovely, so I asked me to bring it for my sister!"

Yingxiu stretched out her hand and twisted Qiuping's mouth, "You can't spit out ivory, you can talk nonsense!" She took the fan, and when she opened it, it was a painting.The inscription next to it instantly locked her eyes: The pear blossoms bloom in March in Spring City, and Yiren Pingting divides the rain.The memory goes back to that day, the lady changed the dresses in her boudoir with great interest early in the morning, but still felt dissatisfied. The water green smoky blue skirt is certainly fresh, but it was worn last time; It is very pretty, but the color is too plain; the satin embroidered butterfly skirt is gorgeous, but it is too colorful, which makes it look tacky... After trying it out, I chose a soft lily gauze skirt, covered with peach blossom clouds and mist shirt.It seemed as if a layer of pink light had passed through the white clouds, and it seemed that a pink peach blossom had fallen from the snow. The young lady of that day was truly as beautiful as a fairy!When it was time to go out, there was a thin drizzle of rain, and the whole world was shrouded in misty rain. "Miss, it's raining, maybe he won't go, shall we go out?" She was a little worried, but the lady didn't have any doubts.Take that umbrella with you.The soft sedan took them to the Liyuan in the east of the city, and Mr. Murong was indeed waiting there.He saw the young lady holding up an oil-paper umbrella and walking with the young master, the sky was full of misty rain and pear blossoms.

Concubine Yu woke up from a nap, Yingxiu and Songjin washed her up.The hydrangea also ran over to make fun of it. Yu Wanying hugged it and put a little rouge on its head. The snow-white hydrangea became playful, and the bright vermilion red made its round eyes more watery and delicate, making it a real beauty An embryo, like its master.It stared at its owner with innocent eyes, as if it didn't understand what was going on, it was rare to see the owner smiling so happily, and it was also happy, rubbing the palm of the owner's hand so intimately.

"Yingxiu, how old is Hydrangea?"

"We have been in the palace for more than three years. Hydrangea was two years old when I entered the palace, and now she is more than 5 years old. You can see that she is still so lively and dexterous."

"Yeah, I've been here for a long time, and I've forgotten the time." She said quietly looking out the window.Every time she doesn't want to look in the mirror, she doesn't want to see the haggard and lifeless face in Lingxiao mirror.Who is Huarongyueyan?The blue hair and the beauty are all sluggish.Her whole life has been like this.There will be nothing but memories.Her life was terminated one day.In the days to come, she could only repeat her memories again and again like an old man, repeating the past over and over again.It is like a reincarnation where the situation is exactly the same from life to life, and even the details are clear and consistent.

Hydrangea jumped onto the dressing table, looked at the cat in the mirror, tilted its head, and the cat followed its example. She meowed twice, and the cat responded by meowing.It opened its Gululu eyes more and more curiously, which looked really cute. "Your Majesty, look at it!" Song Jin called out to Concubine Yu with a smile, she was afraid that she would sink into the memories and be sad alone.Serving her in the past few years, I have also learned about her temperament.Even though she was sad and sad in her heart, she just sat quietly, her face was also very calm, no different from usual, others couldn't see it, but she knew it.Yu Wanying turned her head and smiled softly, and looked at the hydrangea with loving eyes, "That kitten is cute, it's you, smart and mischievous!" She picked up the cat and handed it to Song Jin, who took it out .Yu Wanying wanted to get up, but she didn't know where to go, so she was still sitting.Seeing the figure of Song Jin in the mirror drifting away, he turned around the door and disappeared.

For a moment Yingxiu said: "Young Master Qingping asked someone to send this." She held up the folding fan with both hands.

"Why did he send the things here? You should return them." She responded lightly, her eyes still looking at the door reflected in the mirror, without moving.

"Your Majesty, don't you really want to take a look?"

When Yu Wanying heard that there was something in the words, her heart moved.Immediately, he felt ashamed again, no matter what he heard, he always had something to do with him in his mind.Really took the fan, but didn't bother to open it, knowing that the guess was wrong, but also afraid that the verification was really wrong.When I opened it, I saw the picture and the inscription, which were familiar ink stains, and my heart was full of emotions, and tears rolled down involuntarily.A heart that had been silent for a long time and was about to remain silent began to beat alive again.It really is him, so what can we do?Today, if I don't say it, how can I not know.I also asked someone to bring this thing. If it is discovered, I can still do it. Wouldn't it hurt you!Yu Wanying thought that this folding fan was brought to her by Murong Su, but she didn't know that it was Qingping's idea.In fact, if it was Murong Su, he would not have given her away, because he was the same as her, even though he had thousands of feelings and thoughts in his heart, he would never want her to be implicated.

Seeing Concubine Yu's expression like this, Yingxiu couldn't bear it.He took the silk scarf and wiped her tears, and comforted her, "It's all my fault. I used it to make your empress sad. I'll return it. Don't be sad again, my empress!" As he said that, he put away the folding fan.Concubine Yu raised her fan to cover her face, her throat was choked up, and she couldn't speak. "Your Majesty, why bother! Mr. Murong sent this thing, he definitely didn't want your Majesty to be sad. He should have worried that your Majesty would be too depressed after staying in the palace for a long time, so he sent it to your Majesty to play with it casually to comfort her loneliness. Since this is the case, your Majesty will not let him down. If you are kind, you should also feel gratified, just be happy!"

Yu Wanying heard Yingxiu's consolation, and understood in her heart, but her eyes were hazy, but she couldn't bear the tears.The pear blossoms in the fan are just like the pear blossoms spread out in those days, with the misty rain in the sky, a long stretch.The son held an umbrella for her, but he was immersed in the rain.The drizzle slanted on his blue skirt, and the wet color became darker again.Taking advantage of the opportunity, his snow-like face was beautiful and elegant.Blue is also suitable for him, just like blue sky is to white clouds.She wanted to get closer, maybe the umbrella could cover him from the rain, but he thought she couldn't bear to step on the pear blossoms falling on the ground, so he hurriedly stepped aside, her embroidered shoes couldn't go that far.He was on her right, holding an umbrella with his left hand, and his arm was bent to protect her behind, as if if she walked slower, that arm would embrace her, but he never touched her.He would rather be drenched and tired than to offend her.The sky is full of smoke and rain, and the sky is full of pear blossoms.Everything is silent and time stands still.It was as if there were only the two of them left in the whole world.I just want to grow old together.I just want to bloom forever.

Qingping finally heard back, and Concubine Yu sent him to Yueying Garden.In the evening, he resigned from the emperor on the pretext of feeling unwell, and returned to the side hall.After taking a bath, she changed into a set of blue clothes, and also wore a blue mop on her forehead, her face was covered like snow, her eyebrows were like cut, her expression was bright and her manners were romantic, and she actually looked a bit like Murong Su in her speech. "My lord, the emperor has left the Hall of Cultivating Heart and is heading towards Lanxiang Palace to the east." Sixi was very intimate, seeing the emperor going out, she came here to tell him.Qingping also came out. "In case the emperor comes back to ask, you just say that I have fallen asleep. But it should be fine, I will go back as soon as I go."

Qingping walked slowly to Yueying Garden, according to what Qiuping said, she went to find Yingxiu first, Yingxiu led him into the hall and transferred him to the cabinet.The sky in the courtyard was particularly bright, but the inside of the hall seemed dark.I couldn't see the interior decoration clearly, but I saw two red sandalwood chairs near the desk, and one of them was covered with a lilac-colored brocade bedding.There are several screens standing next to it, and on the screens are pictures of Princess Shouyang sleeping in spring.In the painting, the beauty sleeps under the plum blossom tree. The plum blossoms are extremely red, which is in stark contrast to the beauty's moon-colored brocade clothes and snowy jade-colored skin. Eyebrows are stretched, but the falling plum between the eyebrows is particularly eye-catching, the red is better than the flame, and it is more beautiful than Zhu Dan, which makes the sleeping face charming and pretty, as if awake.There are still some plum blossoms lying between the beauty's dress, as if a gust of wind blows, the fallen flowers are colorful and the plum fragrance is leisurely.As Qingping thought, she could vaguely smell a faint fragrance, but when she carefully discerned it came from behind the screen.Not long after, I saw a shadowy figure standing behind the screen.Qingping knew that she was Concubine Yu.After a while, Fang heard Concubine Yu say, "Your Majesty Qingping is here." Her voice was soft and soft, and it was very comfortable to listen to.

"Willing to serve you!" Qingping also replied respectfully.He also heard Concubine Yu say: "I have received the fan", waited for a long time, but did not see the second half of the sentence, which made him a little worried, he guessed that she must be full of mixed feelings, and he didn't know where to start, and it was also to comfort her. So he spoke first and said, "He's fine." The sound disappeared after the screen.Such a beautiful screen made him so uneasy at this moment, as if the Sleeping Beauty would fall into a deep sleep and never wake up again.He couldn't help thinking of calling her to wake up.The hourglass reminded time drop by drop, and he found it unbearably long.There is only a screen, it is like a world, no matter how you look at it, you can't see through it.He couldn't help moving over, and saw the woman standing next to the window with her back to him, her shoulders seemed to be trembling slightly.Those slender shoulders looked so weak and helpless, he really wanted to comfort her, use any method, but he didn't know what to do, he was at a loss for a while.

"Sorry, I made you laugh." Yu Wanying said, her voice was low and weak, suppressing her choking.

Qingping was speechless, and couldn't help but moved forward again.

Feeling his actions, Yu Wanying turned her head to look at him, and was instantly shocked.When I saw that person for the first time, he was also dressed in blue, with a blue forehead on his forehead, his face was as white as snow, and his pupils were as dark as pitch. He was clearly only eleven or twelve years old, but his face had a handsome face beyond his age. Yi Fengqiao, the light in the eyes is a bit cold.so similar!The person in front of him is so similar to Murong Su, how is it possible!She was stunned for a moment and almost thought that the person in front of her was the person she was dreaming of.

In fact, she didn't care about his appearance at that time, her eyes were completely fascinated by the shining gemstone in the middle of his forehead, the gemstone shone brightly in the sun, it was so beautiful, it made her happy . "It's so beautiful!" She pointed at it and said, his face flushed immediately, and the cold eyes disappeared, replaced by soft panic.He thought she was talking about him. "That jewel on your forehead is so beautiful, can you take it off for me to see?" She was so innocent at that time, she didn't understand anything.Sure enough, he took off the forehead wipe and put it in her hand, the whole action was clean and easy, without any hesitation. "Take it if you like. Just don't tell others, this is our secret!" The voice was soft, as if coaxing a younger sister, and she smiled sweetly.How long ago was that.She was only ten years old that year, and 12 years have passed, and she is no longer that innocent girl.Can not go back.forever missed.

Seeing Yu Wanying's peach blossom tears and eyes full of astonishment, Qingping aroused even more pity.He couldn't help calling out "Xiao Wan", and approached to wipe away tears for her.Yu Wanying woke up startled, and hurriedly took a few steps back.Qingping also felt that she was abrupt, so she didn't go forward any more, and stretched out her hand to pass the silk scarf.She didn't pick it up, and looked down at the embroidered shoes. The upper was embroidered with cherry blossoms, with pink dots.A drop of tear fell, and fell on a cherry blossom impartially. Through the crystal teardrop, the flower seemed to be alive, soft and delicate, as if the petals were still trembling in the wind. "Young master, please go back!" She finally raised her head and said.

When Qingping returned, the emperor had not yet returned.

Yang Xian left the Hall of Cultivating Mind and walked eastward, which is the empress' bedroom. The three characters "Lanxiang Palace" are dignified and delicate on the plaque, just like his queen.The queen who had been put aside by him since the day of her wedding.She has been helping him manage the harem all these years, the empress who has been neglected but never complains despite her best efforts.He was tired of the power behind her, but in fact he didn't hate her at all.He stepped into the palace gate and stopped the prince's shouting of the palace rules.The maids stood at the door and yawned, looking like they had nothing to do all day, very relaxed.It was a surprise to see him, and he was in a panic, he didn't know whether to salute him first or inform his mother.After all, it was Suju who was smarter, and led all the maids to salute, "Everyone in Lanxiang Palace welcomes Your Majesty!" She deliberately raised her voice a little higher, and the empress could hear it even if she was asleep, let alone awake.Sure enough, Mo He followed Chen Huilan out to greet her.

"My concubine didn't know His Majesty's presence, so I beg you to forgive me!" He bowed and saluted. "I didn't let you report it." Yang Xian helped her up.When the two entered the hall, the queen waited on him and sat on the agarwood carved armchair covered by the gold silk embroidered phoenix brocade mattress that she used to sit in the main hall, and she sat beside her.At that moment, Mo He brought two cups of tea, Yang Xian took a sip, but her cup did not move.There is a pot of orchids on the table, a few sparse and slender green leaves, light green flowers, and a faint fragrance.Indescribably quiet and elegant.Even the name is so elegant, cold fragrance.The evening sun had already slanted westward, casting a shadow beside the east gate of the hall. The carved door in the east was brighter than the one in the west because of the light and shadow.Chen Huilan looked at the pot of orchids, and Yang Xian looked at Zhu Hong's palace gate. "It's cold." He really wanted to say something to her, but he didn't know what to say. "Yes." She wanted to answer something else, but she didn't know how to answer, so she only answered respectfully.He suddenly couldn't understand her dignified and elegant appearance, she had always been a queen, just like he had always been an emperor, like two elegant and noble but lifeless portraits.He wanted to get up and leave.The chair seemed to be wedged into the body again, making it impossible to get up.He felt that he owed her an explanation, just like a husband who lost a bet at night and didn't know how to go home to face his wife.But it was precisely this explanation that he could not give.

Yang Xian finally walked out of Lanxiang Palace.He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.Continue to go east, the other side of the road is Yueyingyuan.The leaves of a cherry blossom tree by the wall have all withered, and only a few withered yellow leaves are still hanging from the branches, making it look more lonely.The cherry blossoms were also in full bloom, and the soft and tender pink and white flowers were clustered all over the branches, so delicate and delicate, shimmering in the sun, like snowflakes dancing in the wind, flying down one by one, it is the last of life The whirling dance, with a prosperous joy, but also a sacred sadness.But it's a nostalgia that can't go back.In the season when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, he once picked two cherry blossoms with his own hands and put them on her temples.The pink cherry blossoms took advantage of her white jade cheeks, and there was an undercurrent surging.He likes her peach-like eyes, which are always so gentle.He prefers her slender chin, when he lifts her chin with his index finger, his thumb can't help rubbing it, such gentle curves, such perfect arcs, are quietly presented before his eyes.He also doted on her once, that woman who was as gentle and beautiful as a cherry blossom.But she is not gentle for him.

It was much easier to face Concubine Mei.She was stunned for a moment when she saw him, and then her eyes suddenly brightened, and her laughter as clear as a silver bell sounded in the hall, "Your Majesty has missed your concubine!" A crisp sentence jumped out with the laughter.She walked up to him without saluting, and directly grabbed his neck, her lips attached to her ears, and she exhaled like blue, "I knew you would come!" She said, her voice turned soft, as sweet as a sugar doll , with a stalemate, revealing a temptation.He wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her so softly.This charming, alluring woman with silky eyes can make people temporarily abandon all scruples and morality in the world.responsibility.right.Sheji.all.

He stayed overnight in Meixia Court that night.
