After days of heavy rain, water eventually accumulated in the courtyard, and the potholes were very like, like the small courtyard where I lived when I was a child.

When I first entered the palace, I always felt that after entering the royal family, no matter how bad it was, it was better than the place outside, and when I really lived in the palace, I knew that there was no shortage of cold streets and alleys in the house of the dignified son of heaven, which was dirty and dirty, and it was not inferior to the people outside.

Of course, after all, Baisunyuan is where the emperor and grandson are, and the house furnishings are all regulated by the prince, and the manpower is used, although it has been ordered by the two provinces, it is often overdone, and it is never among the "cold streets and alleys", the reason why Wei Huan feels this way is only because she doesn't like rainy days.

Ah Niang and Qi Niang were both funeral on a rainy day. Qi Niang was young, she didn't do a big job, she only used a coffin to bury things, Ah Niang was buried seriously, for this reason, Wu Sheng Ren and Wei Huan also had to solemnly guard the funeral, in the endless rain guarding Ah Niang's cold and deserted, no one mourned the mourning hall, and stepped on the muddy path to send Ah Niang's thin coffin to the suburbs, on the outside of Wei's ancestral tomb, the most inconspicuous corner was hastily buried, and the rain poured the sackcloth on the body, and even the heart was wet.

From beginning to end, I couldn't bear to cry, cry all the time, cry all the time, cry so much that my liver and intestines were broken, my heart was torn, and I fainted several times, if Wei Huan hadn't stopped it, most of them would have cried a long time ago and became an example of filial piety and died. But Wei Huan couldn't cry at all. Words full of hearts are piled up like rain, and there is nowhere to pour out.

The young Wei Huan stubbornly believed that since Ah Niang and Qi Niang both died in the bright sunshine, they should also be buried in the sunshine. She thought that since they could not live happily, they must die happily. Cui's chose to funeral them at such a time, and the beautiful name was "auspicious day", which must be out of jealousy, because people like her are most likely to die in thunder and rain, and they will never see a trace of sunshine.

As she grew older, she had forgotten all the messy thoughts she had back then, but when it rained, she was always more irritable than usual. This irritability is especially severe in the days when Taiping is not there—although this little lady was persuaded by her in every possible way to coax her to drink with Dugu Shao outside the palace.

Wei Huan once again set her eyes on the door, a gust of wind came in, blowing the Zhanfeng Duo into a loud noise, she frowned slightly, turned her head and asked the palace people: "Didn't you let you put it away?"

The palace man said carefully: "Da Lang likes to listen to sounds, and he cries when he collects it, so he keeps two." ”

Wei Huan heard that it was a courtesy, Fang eased the color, but still said: "You find two more rattles for him, put away the two wood chips Feng Duo, too... I love it, don't get wet. ”

The palace man respectfully answered, withdrew, and together with the other person, took down the wind duo hanging in the porch. When the two of them were busy, news finally came from outside the courtyard gate: "Cui Erniang has arrived." ”

Wei Huan involuntarily glanced at the copper leak, then looked at the sky outside the window, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and immediately drooped again, got up and walked to the door, and smiled at Cui Mingde appropriately: "Long time no see, how is Erniang lately?"

Cui Mingde stood on the steps, took off his hat, and leaned over to Wei Huan and smiled: "Princess." ”

Wei Huan was only five years old when she first saw her, she was already like this at that time, and now her appearance has not changed at all, Wei Huan has changed from a lively and noisy little girl when she was a child, to the current Princess of Luling, wearing the double skin of the family and the royal family, but there is no family and royal skeleton inside.

But Cui Mingde is not like this to everyone. Wei Xin once studied with Cui's, Wei Huan listened to her talk about Cui Mingde and Dugu Shao's good appearance, and later played with them, and also saw the awkward relationship between the two. Before he met Taiping, Wei Huan always thought that the two of them were natural enemies, but after meeting Taiping, Wei Huan knew that they were not natural enemies, but natural enemies.

Wei Huan was selfish, but hoped that the two of them could be together, not only to take advantage of them, but simply felt that if there was another pair of women in the world who could be as good as himself and Taiping, he would not be so lonely when he kept secrets.

Wei Huan also leaned over Cui Mingde slightly, and said with a smile: "Yan Ju doesn't mention the grade, Erniang calls me 'Wei Si'." ”

Cui Mingde smiled noncommittally, as if he hadn't seen Wei Huan take a few steps inward, standing upright on the ground, the rain fell from the edge of the umbrella above her head, blown by the wind, and stained her long black hair, and in an instant, many shiny small water droplets were formed, and the water droplets dripped into the collar along the hair, but she just smiled as if she hadn't noticed it: "I don't know what happened to Siniang Xianghuo?"

Wei Huan said with a smile: "I have nothing to do, so please have fun with Erniang Pu." ”

Cui Mingde showed a little doubt, Wei Huan knew that half of this doubt was revealed to himself: "Mingde has never been good at this. ”

Wei Huan just laughed: "I'm not good at this, so I can only play with Erniang like this, so as not to lose money." ”

Cui Mingde frowned just right, this frown was also deliberately shown to Wei Huan, and sometimes, the smiles and smiles of the sons of the family had deep meaning, and they expressed those unspeakable dissatisfaction on their behalf: "I have to accompany the Queen Mother to listen to the scriptures in the afternoon, I'm afraid I can't stay for a long time." ”

Although Wei Huan is not as old as Cui Mingde, he has also been familiar with these twists and turns since he was a child, but at this moment, he is like a puppet who does not know how to play, and he still said with a smile: "It's okay to play one or two games, the Queen Mother also summoned me, you take my chariot in the afternoon, and we will go together." Suddenly, he smiled: "Erniang shirked in every possible way, don't you think I'm the concubine of the abolished emperor and don't want to be with me?"

Wei Huan looked at Cui Mingde's face changed slightly, his mood improved slightly, and reflexively led her into the seat. When Wei Huan sat down, he had already held the dice in one hand, threw out a handful, and handed it to Cui Mingde, except for the gambler, he never said a word, and the palace attendants on both sides were also holding their breath and concentrating, except for the Luling Wang Dalang who was accidentally naughty and came over to make trouble, in the entire courtyard, only the sound of rain could be heard.

Cui Mingde and Wei Huan gambled against each other, lost two games, but their faces remained the same, only when the time was approaching and the two of them got up, they took advantage of the absence of the palace people, slightly tilted their heads, and asked Wei Huan casually: "Why does Siniang suddenly like to pick up the calamus?"

Wei Huan turned his head and smiled at her: "Taiping likes it, so I like it." ”

Cui Mingde frowned again: "Zhu Pu is slazy in the art industry, it is useless to others, and it is unreasonable, not only do you not dissuade it, but you are so conniving, you are not afraid of harming her?"

Wei Huan smiled: "Erniang can know that the normal feeling of people is to be obedient and disobedient, if it is really what she loves, instead of forcibly dissuading her, making her embarrassed on both sides, so that the love gradually fades and eventually becomes a stranger, it is better to follow her heart, slowly figure it out, besides, the calamus and playing chess are originally small paths, so those who confuse people are nothing more than because there is nothing more interesting than this. The game of chess is more interesting, and I don't need to say more, she will naturally choose me, so why should I make myself like a long-tongued woman and annoy her?"

Cui Mingde frowned: "I thought she was so affectionate to you, and you had her in your heart, but it turned out that she was just deceiving and using her like this." ”

Wei Huan grinned: "Erniang doesn't have to provoke me, I know what I do to her, she knows it in her heart, and other than that, it doesn't matter." I only grieve for Sixteen Niang, she is full of blood, and she has been guarding until now, but she has only exchanged a few names for Er Niang, don't you feel ashamed in your heart?"

Cui Mingde lowered his head and said lightly: "Her business with me has nothing to do with you." ”

This hypocritical and arrogant self-proclaimed son of a noble family finally really changed his face, Wei Huan actually had a faint happiness in his heart, trying to hide his smile, but a shallow dimple was unconsciously revealed on his left cheek, and he lowered his head to cover it, and when he saw the extremely ugly pouch he was wearing, the deeper the smile.

Taiping likes to be quiet, and suddenly likes to get up, but because the Queen Mother likes to be lively, so she is forced to learn to shoot her mother's sycophants, with her lazy temperament that can't be practiced, she is suddenly so motivated, in the final analysis, it is not for Wei Huan. Cui Mingde should have figured out the truth from the beginning, but he behaved at a loss everywhere, for who it was, and it couldn't be clearer - I didn't expect her Cui Mingde to have today.

Wei Huan pinched the pouch in his palm, reluctantly took it off himself, and when he looked up, he met Cui Mingde's angry face: "Last year, you deliberately provoked her thoughts, in fact, you just wanted me to make an idea for her, so that she could transfer from the honor guard to the government soldiers?"

The palace people came in, and Wei Huan laughed in a low voice: "She has her own ambition of Lingyun, so why do you need us to urge?" Putting the pouch in her palm into her arms, the palace people put on a delicate and beautiful peony bag for her, straightened her clothes, walked out of the door, and winked at Cui Mingde: "Erniang is not happy, it will be too late." 166 Reading Network
