Chapter 35: Confession
On a cool morning after a rainy day, the sun was as fresh and bright as a wash. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info air exudes a clean, earthy smell. Two little finches sang merrily among the branches.
Outside the house, Miao Ling and Shu Tong stood a little embarrassed with a basin and a face towel, not knowing whether they should push the door in. Last night, Mengbai's shouts rang out for most of the night. Hearing this, the people in this courtyard were terrified. What if you push the door in and see something you shouldn't see?
Shu Tong spoke, "Wait at the door, wait for the princess to call us to go in." ”
It didn't take long for the princess to open the door. Shutong and Miao Lingyu entered the house and began to serve the princess to freshen up. Catching a glimpse of Mengbai still kneeling on the ground, still wearing the tattered clothes of yesterday, everything was the same as when they came, both of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that it was not as they thought last night, the little girl's family was thin-skinned, and she blushed easily.
The princess didn't seem to notice, and while observing the newly combed lily bun, she said, "I'll send Ping'er to ask Concubine Li Niangniang to bring people back." I've taught this swinger a good lesson. ”
Miao Ling couldn't help but sigh when she looked at Mengbai covered in blood and weak. This princess is as gentle as a rabbit on weekdays, tormenting people, but she is not soft. Respectfully replied "No", and went to Ping'er to pass the word.
At breakfast, Concubine Li led the two little eunuchs to come and said: "My slave turned the sky upside down, in the end, the princess has the means, ** is good." ordered the two little eunuchs to help Mengbai back to Jixue Courtyard.
Someone in this palace has already stretched their necks, waiting to see this farce. Qingge didn't know that there was already a lot of rumor in the palace.
Some people say that the prince has not been close to women for many years, and he thought that he was a modern Yanagi Megumi, but when he saw Mengbai, he knew that he was not with other people's appetites, the prince was a good man, and some of the little eunuchs were afraid, and some were excited to have another road to development.
Some people also said that the princess admired His Royal Highness the Prince, knew that Mengbai was favored, and her eyes were red with jealousy, and she tortured Mengbai to the point of being inhuman.
Some people also say that the princess and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have taken a fancy to Mengbai and fought for Mengbai. In the end, the princess won the battle and abused her behind closed doors.
Either way, it subverts the image of the princess as a weak white rabbit in the past, which is impressive. Even Miao Ling didn't dare to nag in front of the princess for several days.
Qingge looked at everyone's suspicious faces, a little funny. Walking on the way to Jixue Courtyard, the palace maids and eunuchs who came to her all saluted respectfully, looking at her shoes with low eyes, as if they wanted to see the shoes as flowers, but they didn't dare to look at her.
But when he arrived at Jixue Courtyard, in Mengbai's bamboo house, Qingge obediently turned back into a little white rabbit.
"Swinger?" Mengbai sat leisurely on the bamboo rocking chair as usual, holding a cup of new green clouds and mountains and rain and mist in his hand, and said expressionlessly.
This kid still holds grudges......
Qingge smiled all over his face, rubbed his hands and said, "Master, isn't this going according to the plot, if you don't say that, the prince will be suspicious."
"Do you think the prince won't be suspicious?"
Qingge was stunned. After Mengbai said it, I remembered that Su Ye should have been suspicious when he handed over Mengbai to her.
"Whatever, I don't deal with his mother anyway, and it's only a matter of time before I turn my face. Master, are your injuries better? Qingge was furious and wanted to lift his sleeve to see his pierced wound. But he was caress away with his hand without a trace.
was so alienated, Qingge's face was a little red, and he experienced yesterday's night. She was already naturally close to him in her heart. And he acted as if nothing had happened.
Since Qingge recognized him as a master, he no longer deliberately catered to him, and his attitude towards Qingge was also a little light. Obviously last night......
"He's not going to fall out with you." Mengbai said.
Qingge came back to his senses at this time, thinking about what he said just now? Yes, the night.
"His attitude towards you, you can see it from the beginning. Don't be confused at this time, in his heart, you are far more important than you expected. Mengbai continued. I picked up the book in my hand and flipped through it casually.
"So what should I do?"
"Ask him for peace."
Thinking about the night, every time she looked at her somewhat strange affectionate eyes, she felt creepy. He's her brother.
"Don't." She said reluctantly.
"He's the future master here." Mengbai tapped the smooth armrest with her fingertips to remind her.
Mengbai is right, people are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads, and if they don't have a good relationship with the prince, once he succeeds to the throne, his stable days will be over.
Qingge looked at Mengbai who was comfortable in front of her in a depressed mood, her body was completely injured by the night, but now she asked her to ask him for peace. It seems that he is not the one who is being bullied, how can he be so calm, calm as a pool of lake water in the mountains, clean and thorough. Nothing seemed to taint him.
"Come here." The previous topic ended in silence. Mengbai spread the book that was like a plague on his lap - spring! Palace! Fig!. He also beckoned to her.
He walked over lightly, and now he is very calm.
Mengbai didn't read, but looked at her with a smile and said, "You know a lot." It seems that there is no need to elaborate on the teacher. ”
Qingge's face flushed, although she did that kind of thing yesterday, and the object was him, how could he be so calm and not embarrassed at all.
"You are the daughter of the heavenly spirit, do you know that you can choose any man in the world to be happy with you? But you must choose the most powerful one, mate with it, and give birth to a new generation of Celestial Daughters. ”
Powerful? Do you really think of her as a breeding animal?
Qingge scoffs at this statement, union without love is not the same as animals, how can humans in the twenty-first century accept such a view. However, she didn't refute Mengbai, she didn't want to, no one could touch her, "Then why did you match me to Cui Dai?" ”
"Not anymore." Mengbai raised her hand and put the broken hairpin on her cheek behind her ear, and said softly, "I will definitely give you such a future." ”
Qingge can't tell his true feelings or fake intentions. His warmth is like sticky honey, soaking the light song in it, but after a moment, it returns to its light and breezy appearance, making people suspect that it is just an illusion.
"Everyone, let me choose?"
"Anyone."
"That'...... What about you? The light song ghost sent the god to ask this hidden sentence in the bottom of his heart. Is this a confession? She is also too domineering, and as soon as she confesses, she asks directly about the most intimate things. After asking her, she realized how informative the question was, but she felt a sense of relief.
The eyes of the two met calmly, quietly staring at each other, no dodging, no shyness, only staring. In the bamboo forest at the end of summer, the air is already a little cool, and the insects chirp weakly, like a gentle chord, warm and light.
This moment seemed to be very long, until Meng Baiwan smiled and spit out two words: "It's okay."
Qingge's heart was like a drum, he took a long breath, made a fan with his hand, and fanned his already ripe cheeks.
These two words fell on her ears, hotter than any love words. Is this his response in the affirmative? As soon as a sweetness rose in Qingge's heart, he was poured a basin of cold water by Mengbai.
"Just keep one thing in mind, though. You can be happy with anyone, but you can't give your heart to anyone. Mengbai said coldly.
What is this? Qingge's heart that had just floated fell down fiercely.
"You can't have weaknesses. Because you will become the queen of the prosperous era who will rule the Central Plains. ”
