Chapter 69: The Tao is merciless
I sat outside for a long time, thinking of going back to embroider a little more, but I couldn't calm down, so I just sat outside, watching the sun go down and the night coming.
When Ah Han came, I had already sat outside for a long time, and several palace people were sent back to sleep by me, and I was black and rumbling, and I did not light candles, only the light of the lanterns under the porch.
Ah Han looked at me sitting outside and asked, "How is it alone?" Saying that, he looked around, and said angrily, "How do these slaves serve?" ”
I said lightly: "I took it away." ”
Ah Han felt that something was wrong with me, so he sat next to me and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
I sighed deeply, "It's just a little sigh." ”
Ah Han asked me softly, "But why did the fifth brother come?" What was said? ”
I looked at Ah Han and said, "It is said that he chose Ronghua and Wealth between Ronghua and Wealth and the love of his life." ”
Ah Han was stunned, rubbed my hair, and said with a smile: "Worry about people again?" Okay, you can't help making such a fuss, go back quickly. ”
I originally wanted to ask Ah Han about the choice between Jiangshan and me, but after thinking about it for a long time, this choice is not valid. What's more, I suddenly remembered the kind of question that my classmates used to ask between lovers, and if I fell into the water at the same time with your mother, it was too unreasonable, so I didn't ask, and smiled quietly to myself.
Ah Han pulled me into the hall, looked at me and smiled, and asked, "What is this laughing at?" So happy? ”
I laughed: "Laugh at myself, and worry about the new word." ”
Ah Han understood, so he also laughed at me and said, "You only care about other people's trivialities, you might as well pay more attention to yourself." ”
I looked at Ah Han suspiciously, he smiled, and looked more and more unworldly under the night light: "I asked the imperial doctor today, and said that your body has improved a lot, and you don't need to take medicine after a while." ”
I was pleasantly surprised, "Really? During this period of time, my tongue was numb, but I could be regarded as boiling out, and I was finally about to be freed. ”
Ah Han looked at me through the jumping candle flame and smiled, and asked, "It's okay in a few days, the imperial concubine is really going to be the imperial concubine." ”
I didn't understand, frowned and looked at Ah Han inexplicably, Ah Han played with the cup in his hand, looked at me and jokingly said, "Make a promise." ”
I suddenly understood, sat there awkwardly, Ah Han looked at me like a clay sculpture, and couldn't help laughing, just stood up, walked to my side and said, "Xi'er, it's really not like you, where is your usual sharp teeth, teeth and claws?" ”
I pursed my lips and didn't speak, but Ah Han saw the frame by the window, so he walked over, and when I saw it, I hurriedly took the first step in front of him and said, "What are you going to do?" ”
He smiled: "I'll just see what it is, a little curious." ”
I pushed him aside and said, "Nothing, nothing." ”
Ah Han turned around, his eyebrows and eyes were smiling, and said, "The more you say that, the more curious I become." ”
I simply blocked in front of the window and said, "I won't show you my curiosity!" ”
Ah Han looked at me stubbornly blocking there, so he pouted and said softly: "Xi'er, just take a look, okay?" ”
I gave him a blank look and said decisively: "No! And ......" I looked at Ah Han's delicate face and said, "Don't be like this in the future, I will be jealous." ”
Ah Han asked a little funny, "Jealous of what?" ”
I was upset and said, "It always makes me feel like you're doing the same to other people, so you're jealous." ”
Ah Han looked at me with tears and laughter, but he still wanted to see what it was, so he also scared me and said, "I want to see, as a concubine, you still want to stop you?" ”
I said softly and hardly, "Heh! You threaten me? ”
Ah Han raised his eyebrows and said, "Huh? Don't you want me to get out of the way? ”
I said lightly: "No! I was thinking about whether to show you, but who knew you would dare to scare me! I won't show you this time! ”
Ah Han looked at me with a little headache, and finally smiled: "Okay, don't look at it, look at you, like a cat that protects food!" ”
I muttered, "Have you ever seen a cat guarding food?" ”
Ah Han couldn't help but laugh and said, "Xi'er! You're really ...... Alas......"
I still stood there and said, "Go back, I'm going to bed." ”
Ah Han smiled angrily and shook his head: "Got it, you just stand there!" With that, he went out with a smile.
I shouted through the window: "The concubine sends the emperor!" After speaking, he exhaled and hurriedly stuffed the embroidery thread into a hidden place.
Early the next morning, I sat in front of the window early to embroider the purse, because I was really dissatisfied with the crookedness of my embroidery, and I dismantled and embroidered it several times, but the number of times I dismantled it was more, and it would leave some needle eyes on the embroidered satin, and I could only change the embroidered satin.
Until the third pole of the sun, I sat there straight and embroidered for a long time, until my neck was stiff.
Yuyu saw me as soon as she came in, looked at the frame in my hand, and said with a smile: "The girl has benefited a lot, and she is already very good." ”
I continued to embroider beautifully, Xiang'er looked through the window, laughed out loud, and said, "Girl, do you really want to give this to the emperor?" ”
I nodded seriously and said, "What?" What's wrong? ”
Xiang'er couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”
I frowned and said, "Hey, what do you want to say!" It's a shame to be ridiculed when you send it out. ”
Lin'er also leaned over from the window, looked at it and said, "Girl, since you have chosen double-sided embroidery, you have to embroider the front and back images, the outline is exactly the same, you are not very careful here, and the back is still a little messy." ”
When I heard this, I looked at it carefully, and sighed, "That's true, ......alas," I weighed the embroidered satin, and said, "I've dismantled it many times since the morning, and changed it several times, and it's really difficult." ”
Xiang'er smiled: "Girl, take your time, don't worry, work slowly." ”
I nodded, and silently began to remove the stitches again, Yuyu smiled and shook his head and went out.
Embroidered for a day, although it was very tired, but fortunately it was familiar with the hands, and the embroidery was a little more delicate, until the evening, and the embroidery was dismantled during the day, and the second day was re-embroidered.
At night, I dreamed about embroidering purses, and the next morning I felt that I was stunned, so I washed and washed up, and after breakfast, I sat there and embroidered again.
When the sun was scorching and the plantain leaves in the courtyard were scorched, Miao Wu came in and put ice in the house, and asked me, "Girl, don't you rest?" It's so hot, you should rest first, if you have heat stroke, the gains outweigh the losses. ”
I shook my head and said, "It's okay, you can go, there's ice in the house, it's okay." ”
Miao Wu sat beside me for a long time, and then went out, and I still sat there and embroidered without moving.
After a while, Yuyu came in and said, "Girl, someone is visiting." ”
I didn't raise my head and said, "It's weirdly hot, so I'll refuse, and I don't have the heart to meet it." ”
Yuyu said: "It's the girl from the fifth master." ”
I was stunned, thinking that it was Fu Yue, so I put down my needle and thread and asked, "Please come in." ”
Yuyu said: "The girl said that she was waiting for the girl outside. ”
I smiled and went out and said, "Then I'll go out." ”
When I got out of the palace gate, I saw Fu Yue standing outside looking at the palace gate in the shade, and when he saw me coming out, he smiled slightly.
I walked over and said with a smile, "I didn't think you were here, I was going to thank you!" ”
Fu Yue smiled quietly and said, "I'll come to see you, and I'll say goodbye by the way." ”
I remembered what Qi Yue said, so I smiled reluctantly: "Do you have to go?" In fact...... Isn't it okay to stay? ”
Fu Yue smiled quietly: "If I can ignore the whole clan, I can stay here with peace of mind, but I can't," he said and looked at me and asked, "Chuxi, if it were you, which one would you choose?" ”
I made up my mind and didn't speak, Fu Yue smiled sadly: "Look, if you are so silent, it proves that you have the same choice as me," she looked at me and said, "Chu Xi, I am not very great, nor do I have that willingness to sacrifice, that is just my responsibility, my life, this life can only be like this." ”
I also sighed, and then smiled: "Leave quickly, why is it always so miserable, I'll take you to enjoy the flowers, it's the middle of summer, and the imperial garden is full of flowers." ”
Fu Yueben was reluctant, smiled at this time, and said, "What are you talking about!" I want to enjoy the flowers quietly. ”
I asked, "How about going to see the lotus?" The lake is lined with willows, and there are also places to enjoy the shade. ”
Fu Yue nodded, smiled and went with me to enjoy the lotus.
The lotus flower is really slim and standing in the water, but in the hot weather, the water is tender and dripping, and the people who see it are much cooler.
Fu Yue sat in the shade of the green, just quietly watching the noisy bloom, and did not speak. I sat next to her and was silent.
After a long time, Fu Yue smiled: "I knew that I shouldn't have come to the Central Plains, it's better to have never had it than to get it but lose it." ”
I replied, "It's just a lifetime, and if you haven't even experienced this, wouldn't it be even more wronged?" ”
Fu Yue said for a long time: "Yes, yes......"
I turned around and saw that Fuyue was indeed full of tears, and I didn't know how to speak.
Fu Yue cried and cried, and finally cried out of her voice, she grabbed my hand and said sadly: "Chu Xi, my heart will also hurt, I also want to stay, I also want to put aside the selfishness of the whole clan, why don't I want to?" ”
I didn't know what to say, so I could only gently pat Fu Yue's back and say softly: "Okay, okay, cry, feel better." ”
Fu Yue cried so sadly that the dragonflies on the lotus flowers flew away, and the birds on the willow branches couldn't hear it, so they flew into the distance.
Before leaving, Fu Yue's eyes were still red, and he just smiled reluctantly.
I asked, "When are you leaving, come and see me before you leave, or else bring a letter and I'll go out to see you." ”
