Fireflies
Chen Wang pointed to the low table in the car with one hand, half-supported his head with one hand, his eyebrows slightly drooped, and he leaned in the car. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info suddenly heard a noise outside the car, and the carriage stopped again.
"Your Highness." The waiter said outside the curtain.
Chen Wang lifted the curtain of the car slightly, and saw several scholars kneeling in front of the honor guard, holding blood books in their hands and shouting aggrievedly: "The state has virtuous ministers, loyal and filial, serving the king and caring for the people, and now there is no guilt and grievance, the son is on the side of suffering, and the woman is in the workshop, which makes the people of the world feel cold." His Royal Highness has a virtuous heart, why not have mercy? ”
King Chen lowered the curtain of the car, there was no speech, no one could see his face clearly, only his fingertips moved slightly, the street was wide, and the convoy went away from the side, and the few scholars in green shirts were still kneeling on the street, but they looked at each other. Night is approaching, the roadside pedestrians are in a hurry, seeing this scene, they have stopped to see, from time to time there are whispering sounds. One of the kneeling scholars said to the scribe at the head: "Brother Liu, how is it good?" ”
That Brother Liu pinched the blood book, got up angrily, and said: "I hate my scholar and have no power to restrain the chicken, otherwise how can he make this person rampant to this point, isn't he afraid of the mouth of the world!" ”
There was a restaurant on the side of the street, and the two people upstairs looked at this line of scholars and went away angrily, and one of them asked worriedly: "Second brother, third brother Meng, they were exiled to the border city, is it really King Chen's doing?" But isn't Fifth Brother Meng reused for King Chen, why does he still have to deal with the Meng family? ”
The two people who spoke were the brothers and sisters of the Du family, and Du Shaojue was also full of worry, he rubbed his eyebrows: "Liu Shihe, they are still fooled." ”
Su Jun was puzzled: "Who did you fall for?" ”
Du Shaojue's face was a little bad, and he said coldly: "You are a girl, don't worry about these things." ”
Su Jun was a little angry, with tears in his eyes: "If my father and brothers fail, Su Jun is afraid that she will end up like the sister of the Meng family, how can she do nothing?" ”
"You!" Du Shaojue really didn't want to scold his sister again, so he had to get up and say, "Let's go home first." ”
Su Jun said: "Second brother, Xiaoxi is in King Chen's mansion, and I haven't heard from him for more than a month, so I'm really uneasy. ”
Du Shaojue suddenly hammered the table and said, "Don't be foolish, she has not been in Beijing for the past two months." ”
"Ahh Su Jun was surprised, and asked urgently: "Then where did she go?" Why don't you say it to me? Could it be that he was persecuted by King Chen? ”
Du Shaojue shook his head: "She went......" He sighed and didn't say anything.
Du Shaojue only has some sporadic news, yesterday Liu Shihe and they met with King Zhou, and today they performed such a play on the street, and Wen Xi followed Leng Shuzhu to Meizhou, he didn't know the news before, seeing that His Majesty got King Cheng Lin, King Zhou was very guarded against the Du family, and the sixth uncle avoided it far away, did he expect these a long time ago?
Du Shaojue only felt that he was in a thousand things, and it was really frustrating that he was blind everywhere in it.
He sent Su Jun back to Du's mansion, and then went to visit the Yang Mansion in Ziyuan Fang, that Yang Shaofu was exquisitely in the court, Du Yu only met him before leaving Beijing, presumably he picked out some news in his mouth, Du Shaojue felt that it was necessary to find out.

At night, the moonlight has risen, there is no silver light in the secluded courtyard, after Wen Xi washed, sorted out the luggage, this trip, I didn't buy any tuyi, only those gifts of the King of Bohai were piled on the table and the ground, she didn't bother to look at it, just opened the package she carried, there were two sets of clothes and a short sword.
The shirt was also torn, it was pierced by Haiya that day, and the scabbard of the short sword fell off and the gem was never set back, Wen Xi picked up the short sword, some thoughts, Chen Wang he, a little weird......
Wen Xixiu frowned slightly, pulled out the furoshiki, wrapped the short sword and the gem that had been taken off and put it aside, and did not look at it again.
I don't know if I'm tired, or I don't have to worry about it anymore, even though Wen Xi is full of worries, he still sleeps dark and sweet until dawn.
It's just that it's not the sun and the birds that wake up, but the laughter in the courtyard.
She got up, pushed open the window sash, and saw the taro carrying a bamboo basket by the water, smiled and said to Qing Yu: "Sister Qingyu, you see that these lotus canopies are ripe, you can eat them when you pick them." ”
Qing Yu covered her lips, "You girl, how can you eat this lotus pod in the house, you be careful, don't fall into the water." ”
Taro giggled: "Sister must have never eaten fresh lotus flowers, but they are delicious, I will pick more and give them to the girl later." ”
In the corridor, there were fireflies and two little maids, carrying all kinds of things, and when they saw Wen Xi, they stepped forward with a smile and said, "Miss Wen is awake, where is the breakfast?" ”
Hearing the words, Taro was holding a lotus pod in her hand, and hurriedly turned her head and said, "Girl, girl, there are fresh lotus seeds here." ”
Wen Xi faced the morning light, feeling a little dazzling, she wanted to raise her hand to cover it, but her hand was still weak, she had to shake her head, and said, "What about Leng Shuzhu?" ”
Firefly Candle said: "Young Master Leng went to see His Highness." ”
Wen Xi lowered his eyes and said, "Then whatever it is." Before she finished speaking, she picked up her true qi, ran out of the window, swept directly to the lotus pond, stepped on the lotus leaves in the wind, and turned around, and had torn off several green lotus canopies.
Taro was stunned, "Girl, good, so powerful!" Can fly! ”
Wen Xi jumped back on the shore, gave her the lotus canopy, and said, "Do you want more?" ”
Taro pointed to another place in the water and grinned, "There, girl, there are several." ”
Wen Xi wanted to lift her breath, but saw a clear shadow drifting away like a shadow like a mist, flipped between them, the lotus leaves trembled slightly, and the hibiscus swayed, but it was the firefly candle that picked up the lotus pods, she was dressed in fluttering clothes, and Wen Xiwei saluted: "The girl's injury has not healed, don't be tired." ”
Taro was already stunned, and pinched the lotus pod in a daze.
Wen Xi was also surprised, her kung fu, and Leng Shuzhu went all the way, which was extremely wonderful.
Firefly Candle ordered the attendants to put down their food and leave. Before she could come to her senses, she saw her go away like a breeze and mist.
Wen Xi suddenly turned her head to look at Qing Yu, Qing Yu stepped forward to serve soup for her, and said with a smile: "The girl has something to order?" ”
Wen Xi saw that her slender jade fingers were like flowing water, and she was indescribably pleasing to the eye, and asked, "You also have kung fu?" ”
Qing Yu said with a smile: "If the girl asks about the kung fu on the side, such as the needle girl cooking tea and soup slave maid knows herself, if it is like the girl's kung fu of flying eaves and walking on the wall, it will not be." ”
Wen Xi was very shocked in her heart, the light work of the candle was free, and the water did not leak, if it wasn't for her to show it, Wen Xi would never see the slightest flaw, her skills, compared to Leng Shuzhu, must be one or two points smarter, why would such a skilled woman be a slave for others?
Wen Xi was a little curious, and after breakfast, she deliberately went around the back courtyard of the cold bamboo house, where several of his maids lived. Wen Xi had never been here, and he didn't know which room was where the candles lived, so he turned his head to look east and west, turned a bush of dense forsythia, passed through a few plantains, a flood of water under the rockery, a small stone bridge on the water, and a few green bamboos on the opposite bank, except for a few chirping birds, half uninhabited, thinking that no one was in the house, Wen Xi had to give up, and wanted to turn around and leave.
