Chapter Twenty-Four: Smoke and Clouds
The clouds hung low, the wind was blowing, and the dusty memories were suddenly torn apart, like the coldest snowflakes in a cold day, bitter and long, and they came unprepared. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Murong Wei stared into the distance, and remembered the Su character on the banyan tree. It's good to keep it like that, always reminding myself of what kind of confused old dreams I have had, and how my heart has been crushed.
There was a stove in the carriage on the way back, and as soon as the curtain was opened, there was a surging warmth.
The tassel untied the fox fur for Murong Wei, and carefully took the tongs to add silver silk frost charcoal. A few pine branches were thrown into the furnace, and when they were opened, the breath in the carriage added a bit of sweetness.
After doing this, the tassel cleaned his hands again, and then took out the tea and snacks that were warm in the closet, and placed them on the fixed table, and did everything in an orderly manner.
Looking up and seeing Murong Wei looking at herself, Tassel smiled and said, "The princess doesn't squint for a while, she always looks at the slave maid, is there a flower on the slave's face?"
Murong Wei played with the crystal clear jade bracelet on her wrist with pity, looked at the tassel in a goose yellow palace skirt, and smiled slightly: "Su'e, a young girl who can be effective, only found out today that the tassel looks overwhelming." I'm looking at such a charming and wise girl, I don't know how long I can keep her. ”
In the past, the two of them often joked in private, the tassel smiled, and the green silk around the waist gently rippled and spread out.
The tassel put the peeled pine nuts in a small dish, and then presented it to Murong Wei, her two eyes were bent into a beautiful crescent moon, and her voice was soft and sweet: "If the slave is such a stupid person, if you don't follow the princess, where will you beg for a bowl of rice?"
The tassel eyes are bright, the cheeks are faint, the lips are slightly curved, and the smile is sweet and delicate. Murong Wei has always boasted that her appearance is unparalleled, but she realized that the appearance of the tassel is not inferior.
Perhaps, it is precisely because of this appearance of being born that the tassel is not willing to be bland, and uses the body of the young lady as a maid to live his life.
Murong Wei pushed the pine kernel away, and took a purple grape in her mouth, slightly relieving the stuffiness in her chest. She wiped her hands with a handkerchief, raised her eyes lightly, hesitated with determination, and smiled and told her what the tassel wanted to hear.
"If you're stupid, where will I find a clever one? Cousin Twilight... I've known you since I was a child, and I... I am very relieved, too. My aunt treated me very well, and I... I'll plan for you anyway, and I won't ask you to fight with me for nothing. ”
The Su character engraved on the ancient banyan tree, the tassel has long been clear in my heart.
Murong Wei's thoughts since childhood, she naturally understands them.
I wanted to finish carving the name, but unfortunately there was someone under the tree. The embarrassment of being spied on secrets caused the princess to be nervous?
It's just that the princess's secret is also her secret, and what the princess asks for is also what she wants. The difference is that the princess can hide her desire to say goodbye, but she can only bury it in her heart.
The tassel peeled off the pine nut's hand and slowed down, her eyes were bright and shiny, and a touch of spring-like beauty was only a flash of surprise, and she lowered her head shyly: "The princess is making fun of others, the slave and maid will naturally follow the princess all her life, and the tassel will be where the princess is." ”
Only such an ominous shallow temptation to test the mind of the tassel, the little girl of twelve or thirteen, thinking that she was hiding it well, did not know that the beautiful eyes had already given the answer.
How can I be embarrassed in my previous life? Because of love and hatred, because of hatred, Tassel's heart is so big, how can she be willing to let herself stand in her way?
Murong Wei sneered in her heart, with a three-point longing on her face, "In the future, we will still live together, and there is a cousin in the twilight, let's go green in the spring, pick lotus flowers in the summer, enjoy chrysanthemums in the autumn, and pick the snow water of the plum heart in the winter, let's cook tea around the stove, just like now." My aunt must depend on me for everything, and Twilight Spoils me... And you".
Tassel looked at Murong Wei obsessively, that delicate face that was not stained by the world was as pink as a glow, full of longing for the future, making her envious and jealous, she nodded lightly, and that kind of picture really flashed in front of her.
Tassel didn't think Murong Wei was lying. She lowered her eyelids slightly, following Murong Wei's train of thought to indulge herself.
When the princess gets married, she and Yingluo will still serve closely. Murong Wei is inconvenient to put down her figure, in order to envelop Su Duhan, maybe she will really promote herself as a concubine, and then a lady, if she gives birth to a child in the future, maybe she will make herself a side concubine, then she is only one step away from the main concubine.
These thoughts are in Tassel's heart, and I don't know how many times they have turned a thousand times, and each time they become clearer and more real.
Murong Wei said it heartily, the tassel listened to it surgingly, and coupled with her own imagination, her eyes were already shining.
Murong Wei changed her words again, "If it is... You don't want to, I don't force you, let's sisters, I... Although I am sad, I will definitely think of sending you out of the palace at that time. ”
The unthinkable dream will eventually become a reality, and Su Duhan's handsome figure seems to be right in front of him, as long as he raises his hand, he can reach it.
Where is the tassel to give up the palace, she bowed her head shyly, and the ghost made a fool to answer: "The slave is reluctant to give up the princess, where the princess is, the slave and the maid are there." ”
It's really nice to say, who leaked the news of Gu Chenxiao's forced palace and put herself in dire straits, but she herself fled back to Xixia early and turned into Su Duhan's palace concubine?
Or maybe it was the reward promised by Su Duhan, rich and rich, which could make her willing to give up the affection of her master and servant sisters for many years.
How many past events are whistling with the wind and snow outside the window, like cold and damp moss, lingering on the bamboo forest path that has just been walked for a long time.
The person in front of her was smiling, Murong Wei only felt extremely disgusted, she pushed the fruit saucer, only said that she was tired, put the silk handkerchief with the coupling color gold and silver double line to her face, closed her eyes to recuperate, and left the tassel alone, kicking her beating heart with great longing.
Tiredness hit my heart, it took too much effort to be reborn in the past two days, and I got up early in the morning today, Murong Wei was pretending to sleep, listening to the wheels running over the ice ruts, raising a monotonous creaking sound, and actually fell asleep soundly for a while.
When the carriage entered the palace gate, the tassel carefully called her to get up, and the waiter became more and more dedicated, putting the palace shoes that were warm on the stove on her lotus feet, and did not forget to pinch her slightly loose sideburns for her, and diligently supported her body.
Queen Chu had already sent a message to the princess, and the princess didn't have to say hello when she came back, just take care of her life and rest.
Murong Wei's tiredness was still heavy, and she couldn't stop the confusion in her mind. Something seems to be right in front of you, but you can't hold it when you reach out.
She sent the tassel to reply, and she didn't even use her lunch, so she still put the tent and went to sleep.
The white in front of King An's mansion, the white in front of Shoukang Palace, and the bleak and solemn white inside and outside the palace are all lingering nightmares.
In the dream, the imperial grandmother stood alone at the door of Rentai Palace, her figure flashing with a pale snow-colored shimmer, giving up her last attachment to the world.
She cried tears in her dreams.
