Manchu civil and military bow down

The water was very cold, Xu He was trembling from the cold, and his face was pale. He felt that after swimming in the water, he didn't have to pretend to be sick. He probably would have a fever when he returned.

The feeling this time was different from the last time he fell into the water. This time, it was weird, he really had the feeling that his soul was about to come out of his body.

The eldest princess's eyes were red, and she came over and hugged him in her arms.

At this time, the imperial doctor rushed over, checked his pulse, and his face was pale.

There were people talking and crying in his ear, Xu He was so annoyed that he simply turned his head away.

In the end, Xu He was carried to the room by a court lady, followed by the imperial doctors.

And the queen mother was comforted by the maid, closing her eyes and breathing calmly.

The eldest princess stood up, tidied up her appearance a little, turned around, her voice was still trembling, and said to Unknown: "Master, can I take a step to speak."

Injustice.She panicked at that time, and rushed over anxiously and fearfully. After getting close, she heard these two words clearly.In an instant, I remembered that day when the mountain temple was clear and cold, the monk who walked down the snow-covered steps step by step said to her with a smile: "I will come down the mountain to find you."

The eldest princess bit her lip and held back her sobs: "Master, Xiao He..."

Injustice, injustice...

Not knowing how to lower his eyes, he stretched out his left hand and spread it out under the moonlight. The snow-white lotus on it was lifelike, and the edge was silvery.

Stained with water, reflected in the waves, blending with his distant and transparent temperament, it is really like a god and Buddha in the world, unreachable.

The eldest princess' lips and teeth trembled, and her whole heart was raised.

Most of the female relatives next to him also showed shocking looks on their faces. After knowing that this is the well-known Master Unknown in the capital, this shocking look was mixed with some awe.

The expression of not knowing is in the shadow of the rockery, and it is impossible to guess.

After a long time, he only heard him say softly: "Your Highness, please follow me."

Xu He was not wrong, this time he fell into the water, and he caught a cold again.

He had a fever at night, but fortunately there were a group of people around him to take good care of him, so it was not very uncomfortable.

Woke up in a daze, it was morning.

He moved his hands and found that his hand was tightly held by the eldest princess. His throat was a little dry, and he called out faintly: "Mother?"

The eldest princess was staring at a certain place in the sky in a daze, and was awakened by his voice.She had thought about a lot of things in the past few nights, and she didn't sleep well. She was very tired all over, but the moment she turned her head to meet Xu He's clear eyes, her heart suddenly felt infinitely soft and astringent.

Seeing her expression like this, Xu He was startled, and a sense of guilt arose spontaneously.

The eldest princess pursed her lips and showed a pale smile. She stretched out her hand and rubbed Xu He's hair: "Is it better?"

Xu He's body was weak, and his heart was even weaker: "Well, it's much better, I'm fine now."

The eldest princess' fingers slid down his hair lightly, thinking of what he had told her that day.

My heart was sour, and I almost shed tears again.

Her youngest son, who has been smart and generous for so many years, has done good deeds, why should he face this kind of thing.

Xu He felt extremely uncomfortable, and reached out to help his mother wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.But he still made up his mind, pretending to be a little scared and puzzled, and asked softly: "Mom, what happened to me, right... I remember that day when I was awake by the water, I suddenly felt in a daze , When I woke up, I was already in the water.”

Hearing the panic in his tone, the eldest princess couldn't hold back the tears and fell down.It dripped on Xu He's fingertips and it was boiling hot.

She turned her head away, and after clearing up her mood, she turned back and held Xu He's hand, her eyes were gentle but firm: "Xiaohe, if mother wants you to pretend to be a daughter's family for a year, would you be willing?"

Xu He: "...!!!"

Willing!

Why don't you want to!

God knows how long he waited!

I can't ask for it, mother! ! !

No, hold back, hold back, don't laugh!

Xu He held back the joy in his heart, and acted dumbfounded: "Is it just wearing a skirt?"

The eldest princess nodded with tears in her eyes, brushed his hair on the sideburns, and said: "Not only wearing skirts, but also buns and makeup."

Xu He:? ? ?

The eldest princess said: "Mother made a fortune for you, Xiaohe, when you were 15 years old, you were full of evil spirits, and you were destined for a catastrophe. Only by pretending to be a daughter like this can you get through it safely. Don't complain." mother."

Xu He: "...I don't know what Master told you?"

The eldest princess hesitated a little and nodded.

Xu He: ... Fuck!

——Damn monk, why do you talk so much nonsense, I only want you to wear skirts!

I don't know if he was 15 years old, but this time he fell into the water like a ghost, almost dying, which really scared the eldest princess.

Before he was 15 years old, I pressed him in front of the vanity mirror and tied his hair.

Xu He was in a hurry, it was too early to say, but when he met the reddish eyes of the eldest princess, he couldn't say these words, but he didn't want to sit still, so he could only soften his tone: "Mother, I don't know if the master said 15 years old, I haven't arrived yet." He is still in the capital!It's embarrassing to wear women's clothing in front of people you know, okay!He doesn't want to lose face!

The eldest princess combed his hair skillfully, and said, "Yes. He also said that you are only 15 years old when you are full of evil spirits, but you are 14 years old and you fell into the water."

Xu He: "..."

The Eldest Princess was also in a calm mood now, sighed, and said to Xu He: "Xiao He, just bear with it, at worst, I will take you back to the mansion tomorrow, and never come out to see anyone again."

Back to the general's mansion?

Damn it - he's going to Jinzhou to be an official!

Xu He went all out, and said patiently: "No, no, mother, I'd better stay in the National Academy."

He will be participating in next year's Qiuwei. He only needs to pass the exam and rely on his connections to take up an official position.After waiting for such a long time, it's not a big deal to lose face for a while.

The eldest princess also followed him.

She lowered her head, looked at the handsome young man in the bronze mirror, held the hand of the comb, and paused slightly.

When she interacted with several wives in the imperial capital, she often heard them praise her youngest son's looks, saying that blue is better than blue, and his eyebrows and eyes are even worse than hers back then.Now, if you take a closer look, it is true.The color is like spring dawn, turning the world upside down, but he himself doesn't know it, his eyes are full of the frank light of a young man, contradictory and wrong, so it is even more dazzling and eye-catching.

This is already the case for a man, if he really pretends to be a daughter...

A thoughtful light flashed in the princess's eyes, she put down the comb, spread out her daughter's bun that she planned to tie up, and let the black hair fall down in Xu He's confused eyes.

She took a black ribbon and tied it lightly for him, saying, "That's pretty good."

The black belt is drawn at the end of the hair, and it is suitable for both men and women.

The eldest princess kept every word she didn't know in her heart, whether it was a bun or makeup.

She opened the rouge box.

What the hell!

Xu He's expression was as if he had seen a ghost: "...I don't need this one."

The eldest princess hesitated for a moment, skipping the step of applying makeup powder, picked up the small eyebrow pencil with her fingers, and began to paint his eyebrows in detail, gradually dyeing them black.

She said softly: "Don't move, it will be fine in a while."

Xu He: "..." There is nothing to love in life, and I really want to die.

Applied with tin, painted with dimples, painted obliquely red, and dotted with crimson lips.The young man in the bronze mirror looked bored, but he couldn't hold back the blooming spring, bright and flowing, turning this boredom into laziness and tiredness, and the corners of his eyes were painted red, so he was full of charm all his life.

The eldest princess smiled lightly and patted him on the shoulder, "Okay."

alright? !Xu He regained his energy in an instant, and only glanced at himself in the mirror, then quickly looked away.

Too girly, hot eyes.

He was forced to change into a red dress again.

The rose skirt unique to the banks of the Huaihe River is thin and cool, with layers covering each other, and on the hem of the skirt, fine gold silk flowers are embroidered, and there are additional layers of piping as bright as pomegranate flowers.Women's dresses are always complicated and cumbersome. Xu He spent a long time working on them, but he didn't figure out how to get the red gauze around his waist.

He was a little speechless, and came out wanting to ask his mother for help.

But his mother is not there.

In the room was Xue Chengyu who came at some time.

Xu He: "..."

Is there a seam?

Xue Chengyu had already been told about this by the eldest princess.So when I turned my head, I saw Xu He in a red dress.With a calm expression, without revealing anything, he said, "Okay?"

Xu He looked around in embarrassment: "Where's my mother?"

Xue Chengyu said: "The eldest princess was announced by the queen mother."

Xu He: "Oh."

Xue Chengyu's eyes were very light, looking at the body, as if touching the skin with substance, it gave Xu He a very weird feeling.

But this weirdness was quickly covered up by depression, the skirt he was wearing was crooked, and in the end he simply tied the waist veil casually.

Xu He wanted to take two steps forward, but he hadn't gotten used to women's dresses, so he accidentally stepped on the hem of the skirt and almost fell, so he managed to hold on to the pillars next to him.

So thrilling.He wiped the sweat off his face with his hands - and then wiped off the flower sticker between his eyebrows.

Xu He was in pain.

Xue Chengyu couldn't hold back, and laughed. He stood still in the morning light with a long body, with a white jade crown and wide sleeves, and his temperament was as noble as snow on the top of a mountain.

He stretched out his hand towards Xu He and said, "Come here."

Xu He lifted up his skirt, step by step carefully before he dared to go over.When he left, he looked irritable and awkward.Fortunately, the eldest princess didn't make him a very cumbersome bun and wore those emerald jade beads, otherwise he would really have a big head today.

Do it again in front of the vanity mirror.

Xu He faced the mirror, trying to put the brows on it, but no matter how he put it on, he couldn't put it in the right place, and finally fell to the ground.

He rummaged through the drawers, looking for the same stickers, but couldn't find them.

Will his mother kill him when she comes back to see her?

The irritability in Xu He's heart became even worse.

Xue Chengyu leaned over behind him, picked up a paintbrush from the table calmly, and said, "You have to get used to it."

Xu He said: "I think I just need to get used to wearing skirts."

Xue Chengyu seemed to smile, the laughter was cold and indifferent, like the breath of him leaning over.Like black silk brushing against the side of Xu He's face, it was slippery and cold.

Xu He was still wondering what Xue Chengyu was going to do, and felt his chin being gently lifted by a hand.

Tilting his head slightly, he met Xue Chengyu's deep eyes.

Xue Chengyu picked up the pen, his sleeves fell slightly, showing a section of his wrist, and said: "Close your eyes, I will help you draw."

Xu He: "..." Why are you closing your eyes!

His complexion was slightly contorted, and he wanted to struggle, but the paintbrush was stained with flower juice, and the coldness came from between his brows. He was afraid that the flower juice would fall into his eyes, so he didn't dare to move.

Flower stickers are popular peach blossom makeup in Beijing.

So Xue Chengyu's jade brush only opened four peach blossoms.

Xue Chengyu lowered his eyes, all his emotions were suppressed in the depths.

He painted the first peach blossom.

Look at his eyebrows.

Dai Ruo is far away from the mountains, but the mountains are empty, and in a trance, I think of the night when I first met, the breeze and moon, the grass and trees were sparse, the little boy carved with powder and jade was attracted by Jiancheng, there was tension and tension in the clear eyes. Terrified, he softly called him "Brother Xue".

He didn't respond, but nodded to answer, but the hand holding the pen paused slightly, and the ink smeared, thus ruining the word "Huanxi" that was being written.

Thinking about it at the first glance, I already missed my joy and confused my mind.

second pen.

Watch his eyes.

Laughing, annoyed, angry.In the thousands of stars of the Futu Pagoda, he went down the ladder, and he saw surprises and smiles in his eyes, which were as cold and quiet as dried ink, capturing all the light waves in the world.

So everything faded.

third pen.

Watch his lips.

Xue Chengyu's eyes swept over Xu He's lips indifferently.

Charming thoughts, absurd and delusional, surged in my heart.

Hidden in Ruye's eyes again.

Quietly.

He stroked his brush for the last time and said softly, "Open your eyes."

So Xu He opened his eyes.

Xue Chengyu smiled.

The sun is faintly golden, and the warm wind floats the wind chimes under the eaves of the palace, blowing open the rolling blue curtains.Of the two people in the mirror, one has a face like a flower, raising his head slightly, and the other is as cold as a moon, bending over with a smile on his face.

The bright color of the skirt on his body melted the frost and snow in his eyes.

In the 18th year of Jingle, he fell into the water and was trapped in the skirt from then on. He had no love for him, but he changed the elegant name of the monk who grew lotuses in his palm, and he was very popular for a while.

Xu He vomited blood, comforting himself that the task was completed ahead of schedule, and it didn't seem like a bad loss.

After he put on the skirt, he waited for several days, but he didn't see the system refresh task, so he was a little dazed.

Is it not yet time?

When will it be!

For Xu He, the rest of his life would drive him crazy.

Whether he eats, walks, or sleeps, he is always in the spotlight.One day, I went out of the palace with the eldest princess and walked on the street. The spring was shining brightly and the beauties were like Xixi, which attracted the attention of passers-by frequently.

The eldest princess couldn't help laughing, "You can be regarded as captivating all living beings."

Xu He: "...Oh." The gods are so damned fascinated by all sentient beings, it must be a bunch of fools!

When women's clothing went to the National Academy for the first time, the whole place was deadly quiet, and the eyes of the students who had been with each other for four years almost fell to the ground.

Gu Xihuan hesitated for a long time, and it took a long time before she mustered up the courage, and like a shy little girl, she blushed before he could speak, "...Xu He?"

"..." Xu He once again held up his book to cover his face.

So for the rest of the year, he didn't even step out of the palace.

She forced herself into a cold, violent beauty in the eyes of some people.

Time flies.

Jingle's 19th year, autumn.

Walking out of the tribute courtyard, Xu He looked up at the sky, the sky was clear and cloudless.

In his opinion, the questions in the autumn test are quite satisfactory, and the rankings will not be too high, but it is not so that everyone cannot pass the test.After waiting for a while, the carriage that picked him up came slowly.Princess Zhaomin raised a corner of the curtain and waved to Xu He.

The autumn wind killed people, enveloped the imperial city, brought a sense of bleakness, and rolled up golden marigold petals all over the ground.

After getting in the car, Zhaomin smiled and asked, "How is it?"

Xu He said: "It's okay." What he was more concerned about was, "Did Mother promise me to go to Jinzhou?"

Zhaomin looked at him with a smile and said, "What do you think?"

Xu He thought for a while, "I should agree."

In fact, the eldest princess really agreed.

In the autumn test, he was listed in the top thirty.

Xu He didn't want to participate in the spring test at all, and begged the eldest princess for a long time. Thanks to Xue Chengyu's help, the matter was successfully won.

On the second day after the list was made, the emperor announced that he would be the county magistrate of Fengling County, Jinzhou.

At the moment of receiving the decree, Xu He bowed to the ground for a long time, and heaved a long, long sigh of relief in his heart.

On the eve of going to Jinzhou, he returned to the National Academy for the last time. Xue Chengyu helped him pack some gadgets. After giving his Rubik's Cube to the little boy, he made a new one.

There is also his wooden box, his [-] manuscript paper, each sheet is full of memories.

In the long corridor connected by mahogany boards, in autumn, the vines on the stone pillars are all withered, but the maple leaves beside the road are burning red.

During the walk, Xue Chengyu said coldly: "Fengling County is not a very safe place, so be careful."

Xu He hugged his Rubik's Cube, nodded, and said, "I know, I will be careful."

Xue Chengyu looked at him seriously for a long time, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Jingle is 19 years old.

This year, the horns of the frontier are vast, and in the blue blood and yellow sand, the new generals are like a bloody Shura, and they will take the enemy's head straight all the way.

In this year, Yanguan once again quelled wars and chaos, and the king of Yan slaughtered all directions and recovered the barbarians in Lingnan.

This year, the palace was deep and the incense was heavy. The empress, who had been ill for more than a year, had a pale complexion and tears in her eyes, and tightly held Bu Shuyue's hand in front of the couch.

This year, the hairpins were thin and the dandelions were gorgeous, and the imperial concubine who had been favored for a while looked back, smiling like a flower, and smiled cleverly at the man who was burning the Yanguan letter paper on the candle in the dark: "Jinglan, do I look good? "

This year, in front of the Jokhang Temple, the white-clothed holy monk who was already so rich that he didn’t need an account book, spread his hands, the lotus in his palm penetrated into his blood, and the wooden fish’s voice was calm.

Jingle is 19 years old.

Prime Minister Xue began to hand over some political affairs to Xue Chengyu slowly.

White marble is layer by layer, under the emperor.

He looked at him in a navy blue robe, like the eldest son of the moon in the sky, and from his cold brows, he thought of the night when the hall was full of lights many years ago.

The eight-year-old Changle Zhuyu wrote two characters with one stroke, which reflected the panic on Manchao's expression.

The handwriting is immature and cold.

If you want to come to Huiji, you will be hurt.

Cutting swallows.

Now autumn is September [-]th.

Hundreds of flowers are killed.
