Section 139 Fear of disappointment, a deep love
"Everyone said that the official family liked Liu Junjun and didn't want her maid to have 'green' and 'cui' in her name, which suppressed the color of the willow branches."
"But as far as I know, the emperor is unwilling to let them use your color." Dong Qingning said coldly.
Maybe she was so shocked that she couldn't make a more surprised expression, or maybe her previous words had exhausted all her strength to think, and she didn't have the strength to think about this sentence at all. After hearing what Dong Qingning said, Shu E just nodded blankly and turned to leave.
Dong Qingning shouted twice behind her back, but Shu E turned a deaf ear at all. No, I don't dare to listen to it anymore. Every word of the day made her listen to it so thrillingly. Dong Qing stared at Shu E's slowly departing back, his face was full of disgust, but with a little schadenfreude: "You just have to go, anyway, what you want to know the most, I will never tell you......"
Shu E didn't turn around again, didn't look back, and didn't even pause in the slightest. She didn't want to know anything anymore, she just regretted it, she knew too much.
Shu E walked through the back garden, out of the Yingyang Gate, and through the high palace wall of the Liushang Bureau, just walking forward.
The weather was so hot and dry, and the bright sunlight was a little dazzling. Shu E only felt powerless to think, and she didn't want to, anyway, she went straight to the north, which was the way back to Qingshou Palace.
Qingshou Palace...... How do you think it feels so familiar?
Yes, Fang Cai Dong Qingning told her that when she faced the saint in Qingshou Palace that day, Liu Zhi was the same as him, wearing the color of green and green. Just because of this, Liu Zhi was favored, pregnant, and was named the monarch of the county.
Qingshou Palace, I thought it was a place to calm my nerves in the palace in desperation, but at this moment, I realized that this place was just the beginning of a nightmare.
The momentum that had just escaped from the back garden had been exhausted at this moment. I'm really tired and just want to stop and rest......
Was it intentional or unintentional? Shu E settled down, and the person was already standing in the bitter bamboo forest, and it was still the place where the wine was sacrificed that day.
Is it real or fake? The person standing under the bamboo, why did he look so much like the third young master?
No, that's not the Third Young Master. The third young master has already set a wedding date, how can he still appear in the place of her lovesick memory. Besides, the third young master in her heart came by stepping on the snow. She was picking bamboo leaves for him, and he came to the bamboo forest and sent her a hand stove, which warmed her to the depths of her heart.
At this moment, it was she who broke the sunlight on this place, making them dappled and reflected on her face and body. But even so, the invisible person still did not appear.
Xin Wei year, Ding Youyue, Geng Yin day, Xin Si time.
Dong Qingning only said it once, and she firmly remembered it. It's just that she doesn't have the heart to calculate anymore.
A, B, C, D, E, H, G, XIN, NON, and DE.
Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, Hai.
Ten heavenly stems, twelve earthly branches. One circle of reincarnation is sixty jiazi. That's what I promised you, for the rest of my life. I will serve you all my life, watching you marry and have children, and watching your children and grandchildren around your knees.
I can't see you all your life, but I see you standing here.
Shu E's eyes gradually turned red, and deep in her heart, she knew that the person she was looking for was the emperor.
She walked briskly, deliberately putting her steps too hard. Under this bitter bamboo forest are piles of leaves that have fallen over the years, and there is a sound of rustling when stepping on it. Before the emperor heard her footsteps and turned around, Shu E had already bowed to Wanfu.
The emperor was slightly stunned, but there was a happy look in his eyes, and he hurriedly put his hands behind his back and asked Shu'e to get up.
Although it was only a moment in a hurry, Shu E had already seen what the emperor was holding in his hand. Just like the last time we met in the bitter bamboo forest, the emperor was playing with something in his hands. It was something that Shu E couldn't find and always remembered.
"Your Majesty." Shu E shouted softly and saluted again.
"What's wrong with the wound on your hand?" The emperor asked eagerly.
"Emperor Domeng is worried, and it has gotten much better." Shu E replied.
"Really?"
Shu E saw that the emperor was asking eagerly and caringly, and her face turned slightly red. Thinking of Dong Qingning's words, how can I afford such deep kindness? What's more, if you have a wife, Luo Fu already has a heart. It's just a piece of kindness from the emperor, after all, there is no way to refuse, Shu E nodded, stretched out the palm of her left hand, and the blood scab in the palm of her hand was only a small point, tight on the wound. Shu E bent her fingers slightly, although she couldn't hold them completely, she looked much more flexible. Presumably, after a while, the wound will heal, and as for the palm to move freely, it will recover slowly.
"It hurts so deeply!" On the day of the Little Manchu Festival, the Queen Mother discovered Shu E's injury and inadvertently talked to Zhu Yan, and the emperor heard it on the side. On the same day, Hua Dongyang was sent to the clinic to prescribe medicine. Ten days have passed now, and my fingers still can't bend freely, which shows the depth of the injury that day.
The emperor wanted to ask Shu E how the injury on her hand came about, but remembered what Hua Dongyang had replied, saying that Mrs. Yongan insisted on not wanting to say the reason. He sighed slightly in his heart: Since you don't want to say it, there must be a reason why you want to come. If I ask you again at this moment, I wonder if it will make you embarrassed......
Shu E looked at the emperor's expression of wanting to speak and stopped, for fear that he would ask any other questions. She didn't want the conversation to go on like this, and every sentence of such a conversation was deviating from the direction she had envisioned. She hurriedly said: "The slave maid is here, and I implore the emperor for something." ”
"You might as well be straight again." The emperor seemed to be in a good mood, and he was very happy to hear Shu'e ask for something.
"I beg the emperor to return the things left by the slaves." Shu E didn't look away this time, nor did she keep looking down at the ground. She just looked at the emperor, but the emperor was not in the focus of her eyes.
The emperor's hand behind his back moved, as if he was hesitating, but finally he stretched out his hand, and a crystal moist jade wine glass was placed in his palm. It was the jade cup that Shu E left in the bitter bamboo forest that day and couldn't find the cloves later.
The emperor gently twisted the cup with his fingers and asked Shu'e, "You came here to find me?" ”
If Shu E heard this sentence before meeting Dong Qingning, she would definitely feel overwhelmed and shy. At this moment, she calmly replied, "Yes." ”
"How do you know that I must be here?" The emperor seemed to have forgotten what Shu E said when he asked him to return the jade cup, and just asked with interest. It seems that every time she comes, she can meet herself. However, she probably didn't know what to do, this seemed to be a chance encounter, but it was only after how many times she had waited here.
yes, how do I know that he must be here? Shu E's heart was slightly shocked, but she didn't want to think about it anymore. She just felt that he must be here.
"If you are not here today, tomorrow the slave and maid should come again until you find the emperor." Shu E said.
"What's the matter with you?" The emperor asked.
Shu E's eyes glanced at the emperor's palm, and then said: "I am looking for the emperor, in order to implore the emperor to return the things left by the slaves." ”
The emperor's palm tightened, and he grabbed the jade wine glass in his hand, "This thing is so important to you?" ”
"It's not important, it's important, it's a slave's thing." Shu E's tone was firm, but she didn't know what she was talking about.
The emperor's eyes seemed to be gloomy again, but then he smiled and walked over to Shu'e. Shu E was uneasy by his gaze, but she didn't lower her head to avoid it. If Dong Qingning's words are true, then I hope I can tell you clearly.
The emperor approached Shu'e, and the two were only one step away. He lifted the jade cup, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, and asked Shu E, "Who are you here for that day?" ”
"My third brother Cao You." Shu E bowed and replied.
"Don't worry, no matter what I hear today, I won't tell a third person. So," the emperor looked at Shu E, and his eyes gradually looked behind her, "I want to know a true answer." ”
Shu E took a step back, saluted, and said, "What the slave said is the truth." If the emperor is willing to believe, there is no need to ask; If the emperor doesn't want to believe it, then even if the slave and maid say it again, it will still be useless. Shu E's head hung down slightly, but the emperor's expression was clear. There was a momentary distraction in his eyes, but he quickly returned to his usual expression and said, "You are articulate, and there are always many truths. ”
Shu E didn't know if Emperor Lu Dao was angry, and she was a little scared in her heart, so she was silent. After a moment, the emperor reached out and handed her the jade wine glass, and said softly: "If you like it, take it." ”
Listening to such a gentle tone, Shu E's heart couldn't help but move slightly. Then he stretched out his hand to take it, and he was blessed.
The emperor didn't wait for Shu E to speak, and walked past her.
Shu E seemed to see the emperor's expression, with such deep loneliness and sadness, and a little helplessness and disappointment, and felt a little sad in her heart. Because she is so kind, don't say that she takes the initiative to hurt people like this, even if she hurts her, she will forgive.
It's just that...... That's it, this kind of thing makes me upset. Rather than pondering, it is better not to think about it again.
Shu E saluted the emperor's back and said softly: "The emperor's jade pendant, the slave and maid will be sent away." ”
The emperor's long figure stood there in an instant.
He seemed to want to turn back, but in the end he didn't. just looked ahead, and said lightly: "You have served the Queen Mother meritoriously, and that jade pendant is my reward." ”
In this way, there is no need to return it.
Shu E was stunned on the ground, holding the jade cup tightly on her right side, only her hand bones hurt. After a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The emperor's kindness, Shu E can only be a cow and a horse, in order to repay it.
