Chapter 71: The Twin Cranes Empty Zhizhi
readx;
The afternoon at the Palazzo Kio was surprisingly quiet. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the courtyard, the incense burner of silver-gilt turtle and crane to prolong the year of the evil spirits is burning fragrantly, as if it has just been added.
On the stone table by the pond in the garden, a box of fish food was half-fed, the lid of the box was not yet covered, and next to it was a sunflower-shaped palace fan with silver wire inlaid with garnet red agate beads.
An unfinished double land was placed in the middle of the stone table, and some chess pieces made of emerald white jade were scattered messily. The wind-blown petals of the laurel tree fall all over the chessboard.
The auspicious grass that has been spread to the palace wall in the shallow apple island has already spread out of the decay of withered yellow. The yellow, white, and crimson flowers that originally adorned the palace wall were all gone, leaving only yellow vines, wood incense, and chicken blood vines, and the wilted branches of the lily curled up in the corners.
The old camellia tree next to the flower well is already green and cold and red, and the flowers are fading and falling into the calyx, reflecting the ground money and blonde moss on the edge of the stone path becoming more and more cold.
This was supposed to be nap time, Yunyang sat on the Luohan bed with his clothes together, looking at everything in the courtyard through the screen window, with a faint coldness in his eyes.
I don't know if this is the first few days since Zhao Yuan left, and after he left, the palace gate was never opened again.
This is no longer the Qiao Palace with a gurgling spring and a deep curved waterfront, it is just a bay of imprisoned backwater, which is difficult to even set off waves, and can only silently brew decadence and sadness.
Sui Su walked in from outside the house, and saw that Yunyang was not sleeping, so he said softly: "Niangniang, if you don't feel sleepy, why don't you go to the yard for a walk." ”
Yunyang glanced at her and shook his head.
At this moment, I heard the sound of flapping wings outside the courtyard. The two cranes with their white wings stretched out flew into the Qiao Palace and landed in the open space between the courts.
A lingzhi was held in the mouth by the two cranes, one with a head and one with a tail. To say, Ganoderma lucidum is not unusual, there are many plantings in Fangjia and Yangshan, and the strange thing is that these two cranes hold Ganoderma lucidum but they do not let go of each other.
When the competition was fierce, I saw the snow wings flying in the courtyard, the feathers withering, and the top of the vermilion head of the crane rose and fell like two dansha......
Seeing this scene, Shi Shi, who was on an errand at the gate of the palace, raised the long pole and broom to sweep the yard and rushed over, facing the crane at once.
The crane deftly dodged the broom and jumped onto the rockery. The stone did not give up, and chased after him again with a broom, and said while chasing: "These two stupid birds are noisily alarming the mother!" ”
Before he could drop the broom holding the broom high, he felt a sudden hot pain in his buttocks. Looking back, Feng Chunxing rolled up his sleeves, wet his hands, and held a short wooden hammer for paddle washing, which hit his thigh.
The stone was so frightened that it jumped two feet high, jumped to the side with a "whoosh", and said with an innocent face: "Mother Feng is optimistic about fighting again, and I am not a crane, how can I fight randomly?" ”
Feng Chunxing stopped her hand, crossed her waist, gasped and said, "It's you who hit this little turtle grandson, don't you rush if you don't look at what is in front of you, aren't you afraid of retribution?" ”
Stone was taken aback by her words, and said timidly: "How do you say that you will be punished for catching a bird......
Feng Chunxing glanced at him fiercely: "Take a closer look at what this is?" Double crane Zhizhi, this is a great auspicious rui, a great auspicious omen, and the lord and nobles will come! Do you dare to run away? ”
"Didn't you see that Niangniang has lost weight in the past few days? With such an auspicious omen falling today, maybe there will be a message from the Changxin Hall in the evening! If you run away, see how the mother cleans you up! ”
After Feng Chunxing's point, the stone came back to his senses and smiled. Turning his head, he knelt down at the crane with a "Ku Tom", and then kowtowed three times with "Dong Dong", and there were still words in his mouth:
"The crane god wants to bless the emperor and stop annoying my mother. It's just enough to lock up our gray-like slaves here, but how can a beauty like my mother be snubbed like this? God can't even see it. ”
"If my mother is angry, she won't stay here anymore, and she will go to heaven with you. Do you remember to drop a leg and let me drag it and take me around the Lingxiao Treasure Hall......"
Yun Yang heard the stone babbling nonsense in the screen window, his face was not as cold as just now, and his eyes glanced at the palace gate.
Sui Su saw it on the side, pursed his lips, and handed a bowl of jade pillar peach porridge to Yunyang in a timely manner: "Niangniang, I didn't eat well in the morning, let's eat some now." If you don't look haggard, you won't look good. ”
Yun Yang smiled lightly and took the porridge.
After nightfall, the autumn mood is getting stronger, and the palace gate is still dead silent, and there is not even a bird call. Yun Yang's heart gradually became as cold as the air in the gloomy hall.
With the call to hold the pot, he hung a crab shell green Suyun brocade curtain at the entrance of the hall, and moved a pot of charcoal fire to the hall.
Yunyang doesn't like to use charcoal pots on weekdays, because he thinks that this kind of household stuff is quite dusty, and the smoked population is dry. In the past, I always took a few more brass carved stoves and put them everywhere, which were just as warm but inconspicuous.
However, Yun Yang also knew that Sui Su was unusually doing it today to save some gold charcoal. Qi Ao Palace is now in the cold, and it is difficult to guarantee that those stewards and eunuchs who watch people serve food will not deduct the supply of Qi Ao Palace after winter.
The coldest day has not yet come, and until then, it is a little bit to be able to save a little. At this point, Yunyang is still very grateful for Sui Yun's thoughtfulness, if she herself is afraid that she will not be able to think so much.
After the time came, it suddenly began to rain outside the temple. The sound of the rain extinguished the last bit of hope in Yunyang's heart.
She sighed softly, and when she saw that Sui Su and Yin Lu were standing beside her, she was tired, so she said, "Go to the outer hall to rest first, and I will call you if I have anything." ”
Drinking green looked at Yunyang sitting at the Huali kang table on the Luohan bed, his eyes were shining, and he wouldn't fall asleep for a while, so he turned around and went to the closet and took a comfrey-colored half-arm embroidered with silver thread and rabbit fur brown for her to wear.
Yunyang put it on and smiled faintly at her and said, "Don't patronize me, and put more futons on your own tonight." ”
After retreating with Yu Yu and Yinlu, Yun Yang took a copy of "Old Stories of Martial Arts" from the bookshelf and flipped through it under the palace lamp covered with goose-yellow crystals.
When he saw the chapter of "Mid-Autumn Festival", Yunyang thought of the night when he stepped on the moon in Hushan City, Zhao Yuan took care of himself in every way, taking care of him warmly, but now when he recalls it, he is like a world away, and he has been unconsciously.
At this moment, a rush of footsteps sounded from far and near outside the palace wall, and then there was a "bang" knock on the door at the palace gate......
Yunyang wiped away his tears with a handkerchief, thinking that he had heard it wrong, but the knock on the door in his ears became more and more urgent. The voice traveled far and wide in the silence of the night, and there was a kind of heart-rending anxiety......
