Chapter 35: The Rise of the Sunset (9)
The emperor couldn't help but admonish him, so he took a step back and said, "Then choose a small group of pro-army, follow me from afar, hide in a place where I can't see, don't disturb me." β
The servant said happily: "The old slave will go and order." β
He stepped his feet to get out of the tent, but was stopped by the emperor: "Wait a while, you can remember it for me, a small team is enough, and you need to stay away from me, don't let me turn my head to see." β
"......" from the waiter, he did what the king wanted.
The night was cool, and the emperor put on a big hat and went out for a walk with the attendants around him.
The servant was loyal, a roundworm in the emperor's belly, and he naturally knew why His Majesty sent everyone away and went for a "walk" alone. Because he said: "Your Majesty, you have worked hard for many years, if you want to talk to the queen of Gongwai, the old slave is waiting by the side." You have something to tell you again. β
The emperor said: "You are really a roundworm in my belly!" My heart is clear! β
The tone was relaxed at first, but then sad for a while.
A cold wind blew, and the emperor shrank back.
The emperor's stationing ceremony was grand, and the tents set up were next to each other, looking like bulging tombs from a distance, looking at it in the wind, it was strange and terrible.
The mausoleum of Queen Xu is southern, and you can see the grass in the daytime, and at a glance, the blue sky is clear. At this time, it was getting late, and only the torch raised outside the tent of the camp could be seen at the moment, and the hook of the crescent moon was white and painted, and the light was not clear.
The Emperor went all the way south.
The king cried the mausoleum, and let the courtiers see it, it was time to lose his prestige. He can't pay homage to his queen when he officially pays homage to the tomb tomorrow, so he can only quietly walk on the path leading to Duling at this moment to visit Pingjun, whom he has been thinking about for a long time.
A detachment of pro-army followed the king at a distance, hiding as much as they could, so that the king would not be bored.
The emperor would occasionally stop and ponder for a long time, and the pro-army Yu Linwei would also stop and follow the king.
The South Park, where the Mausoleum of Empress Xu is located, is only a part of the Du Tomb. Because of the ritual system, the emperor could not arbitrarily expand the mausoleum of Empress Xu, and Pingjun was frugal during his lifetime, and he must not be so extravagant after his death.
At this time, the emperor standing in the South Park was no longer an emperor.
He's just Liu's illness.
The South Park is very large, only in front of the Queen's Monument, and you can worship under all looks. Therefore, although the emperor stood here, he did not see that there were still people in front of the queen's tomb.
The emperor stood facing the wind and muttered, "Pingjun, I have come to see you." β
The emperor frowned slightly, and the past was vivid.
The Emperor was about to go further and talk to his deceased wife. But I caught a glimpse of a figure in front of the queen's mausoleum, kneeling on the ground, still muttering something.
The Emperor walked closer, and the attendant followed cautiously......
The shadow was the appearance of a child, not very tall, and even if you knelt, you could see that the shadow was not an adult. In the white moonlight, the shadow was as thin as a layer of silk.
The emperor suddenly felt a little distressed, and he didn't know why, he really felt that his heart seemed to be being pulled by someone.
That's Jingwu.
Don't guess, that's his martial arts.
The terrain here is desolate, and it is an imperial tomb, so even during the day, there will be no children from ordinary people's families coming here, let alone at night.
The underage children in the entourage, except for the prince and Jingwu, there is no one else.
Jingwu had dinner, and went to bluff his brother, she was clever, knowing that her brother loved her the most, and she must have taken good care of her all the way, if she wanted to go to Nanyuan alone at night to worship the mother of the underground palace, her brother would not allow it. Therefore, she tried her best to pester her brother first, and when she was tired of playing, she said that she would go back to the tent to rest, because she was with the prince most of the time, and the prince would not pay too much attention to her movements in the evening, so that she could find the opportunity to sneak out without her brother.
The road was not easy to walk, the black light was blind, half-touching and half-climbing, she was almost entangled in the vines and couldn't pull it out. She used to play and was bold, so even when it was dark, she wasn't too afraid.
Before the emperor's royal drive came, the pro-army had sealed the emperor's mausoleum for several miles, and the inspection was very secret, so there would be no bad people leaking in. Jingwu is not stupid, everything is considered before acting.
She stumbled and stumbled easily before she came to the queen mother's mausoleum, because she knelt on the ground and bowed in the palace first, her head touched the grass and trees, and she knocked her head down one after another, Jingwu felt for the first time that she was so close to her mother.
She shouted, "Queen Mother......"
Jing Wu carefully uncovered the package he had brought with him, and took out all the contents inside: "Mother, Jing Wu has come to see you and brought you something delicious-" She smiled and spread the cold osmanthus sweet stuffed cake she had made herself on the silk silk to sacrifice her mother.
"Mother eats more ......"
Jing Wu snorted, a little sad: "Queen Mother, Jing Wu misses you so much-"
She reached out and touched the baggage strap on her chest,ββ which she had brought with her before leaving, and which contained something extremely important. It's not eating.
Jing Wu carefully loosened the strap and took out the contents of it......
"Mother, do you like it?"
It was four tiny dolls made of flour. Two large and two small, painted, although it is not a very fine thing, but the production zuΓ² is very careful.
Jing Wu picked up one of the large dolls and shook it in front of her mother's tombstoneβ
"Mother, this is you, is it good-looking? Jing Wu pinched ...... Jingwu has never seen his mother, and he doesn't know what his mother looks like, but she is pinched according to what her brother said - does it look like it? β
Jingwu giggled in the wild wind, laughing and laughing and shedding tears.
The little girl raised her hand and wiped away her tears bitterly:
"Mother, mother, if you just hug Si'er! Si'er misses you so much! β
Jingwu lined up four flour dolls, two small ones in the middle and two large ones outside. Jingwu pointed one by one, in front of the tomb of Empress Gongwai, and said to the air:
"Queen Mother, this big one is the father, you see, there is a pearl in front of the forehead, I can't pinch it well, but I can still see that it is the father, and the crown is twelve - only the emperor wears this. This is the queen mother, how beautiful it looks! I used painted gold dust, and only Masamiya Niangniang used this! This little one is the elder brother, and the elder brother is the crown prince,...... He is the best and best brother in the world! β
Si'er was sad next to the mourning grass, and suddenly stopped talking. She pinched a small noodle figure, and her voice was pitiful like a kitten that could just make a sound: "This one, it's not very good, it's Si'er...... Si'er is not well-behaved, Si'er is not good. β
The little princess buried her head.
Jingwu was sad alone, immersed in a person's world, even if someone approached, she didn't notice it.
"How can Si'er be unbelievable and bad?"
Jing Wu raised his head.
The person who spoke was not the Emperor, who was standing not far away at the moment looking at her.
The emperor sent a servant to speak to her, and he wrapped himself in a squill and watched coldly. At this time, it was completely dark, and the candles in the tent could not shine here, and the moonlight was very hazy, and only a single figure could be seen, and it could not be seen clearly.
Therefore, Jing Wu could not see the emperor standing not far away.
"Who are you?" Jing Wu sniffled, and the tiger glared at the servant.
The servant smiled and tried his best to let the little princess take off her guard: "The old slave can't sleep, so he walks casually, and he happened to come to the front of the mausoleum of the queen of mourning, because he saluted the late master." As he spoke, he bowed to the mausoleum of Queen Xu.
Jing Wu saw that he was very respectful to the queen, and he didn't think he was a bad person, because he said: "Si'er is a little ...... bad."
The attendant simply sat down, squatted shoulder-to-shoulder with the little princess, and asked, "What's wrong?" You can always change ......."
"It can't be changed." Jing Wu saw him looking directly at the four-faced people, and couldn't help pinching the puppet and shrinking back: "What do you see?" β
"What is the little princess holding in her hand? It's pretty good. β
Jing Wu was a little tired from crying, and he was extremely sleepy, so he yawned: "It's nothing." β
"Tsk...... How does this poke the needle? How can a good face poke a needle, princess? From the sharp eyes of the waiter, I saw that the little princess was holding a small noodle figure in her hand, poking needles all over her body, dense and scary.
Jing Wu is young, so he naturally doesn't understand the matter of melon fields and plums, and in the palace, there are some taboos that have to be avoided. She didn't know at all that if this noodle man with a needle fell into the hands of someone with a heart, it would cause an accident and involve countless people.
Jing Wu saw that he had discovered it, and this person looked very kind, so he didn't hide it, because he lined up all the four faces and counted them to him:
"Oh, this is big, this is big, I'm pinching it hard-this is the father, that's the mother, do you see? These two little ones, one is the elder brother and the other is Jingwu...... I pinched it and brought it to the queen mother, who must have liked our family to be together. β
This has been with you for many years, and has seen too many rights and wrongs, and at this moment with a young girl who has not yet entered the world, she was very sad by her fairy words.
Alas, it would be nice if Queen Xu was still here.
Majesty is really a family together.
Thinking so, the attendant turned around and looked at the emperor from afar, wanting to ask the emperor for a show.
The Emperor pursed his lips slightly, and motioned for him to continue.
He was not far away, he could see Jing Wu's thin shadow, and he could hear what she said. The emperor's heart was also uncomfortable. For many years, I ignored Jingwu, and I didn't want her to grow up, she was quite sensible.
The emperor was a little moved.
"Little princess, why is this face of yours different from others?"
What he means is, why are all the face-faced people good, the little princess human-shaped face-faced people are covered with silver needles.
Jingwu lowered his head and remained silent for a long time.
He waited carefully, but saw the little girl quietly wiping her tears with her sleeve.
"It's all about respecting martial arts and not being well-behaved, respecting martial arts is not good ......"
She said.
I repeated what I had just said.
