vs 39 For one's own sake

It's been half a month since I married into Taojing's mansion, and the days are really calm like the lake in front of Xiaoxiao now, and there are no waves at all at a glance.

"Concubine Side, the prince said that he won't be here tonight, tell sΓΉ that you have a good rest and don't catch a cold." A thirteen or fourteen-year-old maid poured a cup of tea and respectfully handed it to Xiaoxiao, while not forgetting to convey Han Xuantian's words.

"Got it, you just wait here, I'll go over there and walk by myself."

Xiaoxiao doesn't know why he always comes to the garden where he met Feng Pingran in his spare time, what kind of thoughts do he always have here, are he looking forward to meeting him again.

"Feng ......" was standing boredly in the flowers, Xiaoxiao, whose sharp eyes saw a slender figure flashing at the door, and subconsciously opened her mouth, but the other party just paused and she found that she was calling the wrong person.

"Duan Heng." Xiaoxiao walked a few steps to the side of the man who stopped at the door, and looked at the man who had now abandoned his usual white clothes.

"Wechen has seen the side concubine, the side concubine Jin An." Today's Duan Heng is wearing a dark robe that he has never worn, and there is no gentle pampering in his eyes, only a respectful and humble bow is left, and there is no superfluous expression.

"Why are you in the palace?" Xiaoxiao looked at Duan Heng incredulously, his eyes fell on his waist, which was already empty at the moment, and his chest was stuffy, he really put it down.

"Weichen replied to the prince's words."

Between the words, Duan Heng always bent over and lowered his eyes, maintaining a posture of bowing, I don't know why Xiaoxiao just felt that the deference of the current person at the moment made him look sad.

"You ......" Xiaoxiao looked at himself and could only see Duan Heng above his head, and sighed slowly, "Master Duan is exempt from being polite." ”

"Concubine Xie." Standing up straight, Duan Heng still narrowed his eyes, and didn't even look at Xiaoxiao, as if he would make a big mistake if he looked at it more.

"You said that today is a return to the prince, but the prince has entrusted you with something, and I have worked hard for you." Xiaoxiao looked at the alienated Duan Heng, and only felt that the fairy-like face had thinned a little at the moment, and the edges and corners seemed to be a little too distinct.

"Weichen is now worshipping under the prince's door, and he should do his best to do things for the prince, why do you have to work hard."

"What?" Xiaoxiao's eyes widened, and he looked at the person in front of him in disbelief, worshipping under Han Xuantian's door?

"Why is the side concubine so surprised, the prince's status is precious and famous, and now the prince appreciates Duan Heng's honor is Duan Heng's honor. As the saying goes, there are often thousands of miles of horses and Bole is not often, although Duan Heng is not a thousand miles of horses, but it is Duan Heng's blessing to be able to meet the prince and worship under his door. ”

"Blessings? Honoured? Xiaoxiao couldn't help but take a few steps forward, staring at Duan Heng incredulously.

"If I'm not mistaken, the last thing that Master Duan likes is ganging up, doesn't Master Duan think that the secret interaction between the prince and the courtiers will shake the court!"

"In the past, Weichen was shallow, and what he said was not measured, and I hope the concubine forgot about it." Duan Heng saluted again, "If the side concubine has nothing to tell Weichen, Weichen will resign and leave the house." ”

"Duan Heng!" Xiaoxiao looked at Duan Heng, who turned around and was about to leave, and suddenly became angry.

Duan Heng paused when he heard the shouts behind him, but he didn't turn around, nor did he respond, the two of them just stood in place.

"Concubine Side, if you and Wechen are bumped into now, I'm afraid it will affect your reputation as Concubine Side, you and the prince have just gotten married, if there is a misunderstanding because of this, Wechen will really feel uneasy." There seemed to be a bit of exclamation and reluctance in the obedient voice at the moment.

"Why should you?" Xiaoxiao looked at the back that seemed to be a little thinner than the last time they met, and the guilt in her heart instantly overflowed.

"For a woman like me who is a water-based Yanghua, why do you bother, Master Duan?" Xiaoxiao said that no matter how he reacted, he took his skirt and sat on the ground, since he crossed over to sort out the emotional mess he made, she was most sorry for the man in front of her, it was he who gave her the first care and warmth in the world, but he hurt him the most.

"Since the decree of marriage was decreed, I have not looked at you or thought of you one more time. I swayed between Xiahou Chenyi and the prince, I helped Xiahou Chenyi prepare for the competition, I took blood for the prince to treat the disease, in the past few months, I have never responded to you, let alone cared about you. ”

"Master Duan, have you ever thought that maybe you and I were all a dream, maybe I didn't treat you really at all? Maybe the person you love, the person in your heart, is not the me in front of you at all! Xiaoxiao hugged his knees, staring at the large blooming delicate flowers in front of him, but his heart was gray, "Maybe the woman who accompanies you and sings poems against you is no longer in this world, have you thought about it?" ”

"To be or not to be?" There was a sound of gentle footsteps next to the voice, Xiaoxiao knew that Duan Heng was standing by her side at the moment, and she could even feel that the familiar gaze was falling on her at the moment, but she felt that this gaze was so heavy that she couldn't raise her head at all.

"Whether it's a dream or a scene, the figure in my heart was given by the side concubine, the smiling woman on the temple fair lit up a bright light in my gray life, and the busy and happy figure in front of my eyes gave me hope to continue, whether she was sincere or not, no matter who she is now, she is the woman I care about the most in Duan Heng's life, Duan Heng is just doing things according to his own mind at the moment, all of them are for myself, and I hope that the side concubine will not worry too much."

"Yourself?" Xiaoxiao raised his head and looked at Duan Heng with a serious expression, "This is your own favorite way of life?" ”

"This is a day that can make me feel at ease every day, Duan Heng has nothing else to ask for in this life, and now he has only one wish: to hope that you will be happy." After speaking, Duan Heng bowed and bowed, and left without the slightest hesitation.

Not far away, two figures, one black and one red, saw the scene just now, and the pupils were leaning on a big tree at the moment, shaking a folding fan in their hands, pouting and looking at Han Xuantian who was standing with a good look on his face.

"I really didn't see it, you side concubine is so powerful, one assassin is not over, and now there is one more scholar of the Hanlin Academy," he said, stretching out his slender fingers and gesturing, "In addition, there is also a recently quiet and too weird prime minister's concubine, hey, hey, counting you is a shocking number." ”

"Don't count me and them together, I'm ...... with her" Han Xuantian's face became more and more ugly with Cangtong's words, and his eyes became more and more cold, staring directly at Xiaoxiao who was sitting alone on the ground, "Between me and her, we just take what we need!" ”
