In the evening, the rain gradually became heavier. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the end of September, the weather was already wrapped in a light chill in the twilight. There was no sign of the yard, and a few dead leaves stuck to the damp ground, showing a kind of damage for no reason. In the distance, Lianyun Mountain seems to have a layer of blue-gray tulle, and the shadows are so dense that you can't see it clearly.

Ah Dou stood on the stone steps, raised his head, and breathed into the rain.

As soon as the pale white mist left his lips, he only floated forward for a few feet, and then dispersed, and disappeared without a trace.

The wind swept up the rain line, and swept into the canines of the interlaced tiles, and the wind was blown by the wind, occasionally making a clear sound, like the scattered drums in the lonely night, beating the bottom of people's hearts.

Ah Dou trembled slightly, pulled the copper basin in his hand into his arms again, and shrunk his shoulders.

There was half a basin of boiling water in the basin, which she had just brought from the stove, and was ready to be used for the girl to clean her face later.

However, the girl has always liked to use warm water, so this water is not immediately available, and it is better to dry it a little longer.

Ah Dou raised his head and lowered it a little, the tips of his eyebrows were gathered in the center, and there was a bit of resentment on his delicate face, as if he was several years old.

She is only fifteen this year, the same age as a flower, and a willow-like figure, but she can only be in this lonely mountain......

She sighed.

Needless to say, she herself feels a pity.

She turned around, carefully grasped the copper basin, felt the warmth of the hot water in her chest and abdomen, and slowly stepped into the door of the hall.

The hall is neatly arranged, the walls are snow-white, and the tables and chairs are clean. However, this is only one room. The bedroom is located in the west room, and only a thin cotton curtain is hung on the door with a copper hook, and the curtain is gray and you can't see what color it is, and there is no embroidery on it, only a few distinct cavities, showing the shabby and shabby here.

When the cotton curtain was lifted, there was a large and empty room. There were only a few pieces of furniture, the dressing table was missing and was padded with wooden blocks, the walls were mottled with mold, and the vermilion lacquer drum stool had long since worn out, revealing its original wood color. Only the three-screen carved Luo tent bed placed against the wall is still in good condition, and through the two washed white green yarns, the carved Ganoderma lucidum grass pattern on the bed board can be faintly seen.

Ah Dou slowed down, put the copper basin and cloth towel on the shelf, and sighed softly.

When she came back from outside, and saw that the girl was taking a nap, she lied to Ato, saying that she wanted to serve the girl to get up, and brought boiling water in.

She wanted to find something while the water was drying, and even if someone came in at the moment, she had a ready-made excuse.

After arranging the cloth towel, Ah Dou listened attentively for a while, then took a few steps forward, quietly lifted the gauze tent, and peeked in.

In the tent fell asleep a woman, half-on her side with her eyes closed. Although he is still young, he can already glimpse a few bright and beautiful faces, with two curly and curled long eyelashes covering his cheeks, and his snort is light, obviously sleeping deeply.

Staring at the woman in the tent, Ah Dou's eyes gradually swelled up with a little jealousy, and one hand unconsciously touched his face, and after a long time, he exhaled lightly, and a trace of disdain crossed between his eyebrows.

What about the sixth mother of the Qin family? In this remote Zhuangzi, who can remember her surname Qin?

Pouting, Ah Dou put down the gauze tent, turned around and looked in the direction of the door curtain, and made sure that there was no one around, so he quietly turned the end of the bed and came to a cabinet placed next to the base of the wall.

This cabinet was originally supposed to be used as a bookshelf, but Qin Liuniang obviously didn't like to read, but was very interested in having fun and dressing up, there were several makeup boxes on the shelf, and scattered silk flowers, lanterns, kites and other things, although they were not very valuable, but they were very fancy, and the first few layers were piled up. Only in the lowest corner were there a dozen books in random order, and the dust on them was so thick that it seemed that it had not been turned over for a long time.

Although Ah Dou knows a few words, he is not a studious person. However, as soon as she saw those books, her eyes immediately lit up, she squatted down, took out a piece of paper from her sleeve, and compared the contents copied on the paper, rummaging through the pile of books one by one, with a very light movement.

In the gauze tent, Qin Su slowly opened his eyes and stared at Ah Dou at the end of the bed, his face expressionless.

The twilight filtered through a few layers of green yarn, reflecting a little green gray on Ah Dou's back, and Qin Su's face in the tent was inevitably dyed with a layer of green gas.

From the age of seven to twelve, she seemed to have been forgotten by the Qin family, and grew up alone in the most remote countryside in Jiangyang County.

Qin Su looked at Ah Dou lightly, curled the corners of his lips, and smiled silently.

In her previous life, she never knew that in her body, there were things that could be plotted, and the maid Ah Dou, whom she trusted and relied on the most, was not what she was yesterday. hated that she lived until life was worse than death, until she was covered in mud, and finally struggled in that cannibalistic place for five years, before she realized again and again how ridiculous she was at that time.

By then, everything had already happened, and the dust had settled and there was no way to change it.

The five years in the deep palace were like the most unbearable dreams. In the dream, the heavy buildings are like the ocean, and she is a lonely boat, without family support, no children and pets, but the only one who is lonely and brave and full of unwillingness has also walked to the highest position step by step, but when she is about to reach the peak, she suddenly falls.

She still remembered the moment she fell into the Golden Lotus Pond, the phoenix crown pressed heavily on her hair, and then broke away, and the scattered bun was like ink threads, floating around her, like silk.

The red palace wall, pink peach blossoms, glazed green tiles, and the blue sky are like washing.

She sank into the water and looked out, feeling that it was like being immersed in a pool of transparent jade, empty and ethereal, like a dream.

She suddenly felt sarcastic.

She had been so thirsty, so stubborn that she wanted to die.

At the age of fifteen, when her rags were discovered and her reputation was ruined, she wanted to die, and at the age of seventeen, when she was first transferred and woke up from a strange bed, she had looked forward to death so much.

But it is that he begged for death but could not.

First, because you can't, and then because you don't dare.

Death to her turned out to be a luxury.

For a while, she even took pleasure in fantasizing about her own death.

She walked like she was walking in a dark swamp that had no end, covered in dirt and exhausted. Until one day, she returned to the country and entered the palace.

At that time, she didn't want to die.

She just wants to live well. Live above 10,000 people, live a fierce and dazzling life, and get back the humiliation you suffered a hundred times and a thousand times before.

But death came at this time.

The phoenix crown is close at hand, and the glory and light are at your fingertips, but she can no longer touch it.

She had no idea who had pushed her into the water.

When she gradually sank to the bottom of the water, there was no trace of people by the Golden Lotus Pond, and the palace people who were supposed to be by her side disappeared out of thin air in an instant.

She stopped struggling and looked up at the familiar red wall and green tiles, sadness flooding her eyes in waves.

She didn't know where this grief came from.

In the gentle and cold water waves of the Golden Lotus Pond, the frozen, buried, and suppressed emotions in her heart suddenly exploded.

She saw her tears, as transparent as the purest crystals, one by one, floating in the deep turquoise water.

It turned out that there was one other thing in her, which was clean.

It turned out that the tears that flowed from the bottom of her heart, which had long been muddy, were no different from the tears that slid down the pure eyes of a fourteen-year-old girl.

At that moment, tears welled up, and she couldn't help crying at the moment of death.

Then she saw the fire.

A corner of the palace wall burst into flames, and there seemed to be the sound of fighting rushing to the ears.

She stopped crying, watched quietly for a moment, and then burst out laughing.

The cold, fishy water poured into her throat and choked her breathing, but she was still laughing and laughing.

It's ridiculous, isn't it? The person who calculates her would never have imagined that the day she dies will be the time when the country is broken.

What calculations and conspiracies, what honors and illustriousness, under the edifice that will fall, all the dazzling of today is but the dust and smoke of tomorrow.

She burst into tears of laughter in the pool, her messy hairline scattered like black ash.

At that moment, she suddenly had no resentment and no hatred.

So be it, she thought.

It's not bad to end like this.

She slowly closed her eyes, letting the chaos envelop her.

However, when she opened her eyes again, she came here-Lianyun Grange in the twelfth year of the Middle Yuan Dynasty.

This year was the beginning of her doom in her previous life, and it was also the starting point of the Qin family's demise. And she, with all the memories of her previous life, came back.
