Chapter 141: In a blink of an eye
Liu Zhao's voice sank into his ears: "Li'er, I am the emperor, the world is big, but I am alone. Not only has to bear the heavy responsibility of the world, but also the love of the harem, although sometimes I can't think of Li'er, but I also have Li'er in my heart. Therefore, as the queen, you must also be considerate of my difficulties. ”
Yin Li suddenly smiled coldly and said: "The emperor's words are uncomfortable to hear, since this is the case, how can the emperor go to see Deng Guiren every day." If you have Li'er in your heart, why don't you ignore Li'er for a month and ignore it in the harem? Yes, Li'er can endure the private feelings of the emperor's children, but only for a while. If there are any grievances, I can bear it, no matter how hard life is, think about the emperor's difficulties, everything is cumbersome, and don't let the emperor be embarrassed. But Your Majesty, have you really thought about Li'er? ”。
Liu Zhao looked at a pair of Crane Zhi copper lamp stands erected in the warm pavilion, and the milky white palace veil on the shelves was like a pair of candles, and the lights revealed fell into the moonlight, which was as clear as porcelain, but it was dimly warm. suppressed the anger when he heard Yin Li's words just now, and said with a smile: "My Li'er is the most jealous and angry, okay, okay, I'm not here today, come, serve me to renew the bath, I'm tired today, I really want to rest earlier." ”
Yin Li's eyes opened for a moment, and he said with wide eyes: "Your Majesty, the concubines are here to serve you, come here, prepare hot water!" ”
That night, Liu Zhao felt that his whole body was relaxed after bathing, and the unpleasantness of the day seemed to have faded a lot. Lying on the wide and soft collapse of the Changqiu Palace, his eyes began to become foggy, and drowsiness gradually attacked. By the time Yin Li came to the dormitory, Liu Zhao had already let out a soft snoring sound. I had no choice but to shake my head, and I couldn't bear to wake him up. I had to sleep next to the emperor, listen to his heartbeat, and slowly fall asleep.
The days to come. The emperor rested in each palace for a night according to his position, which is called "rain and dew are evenly wet". It's just that he didn't go to Sui'er, and it seems that Deng Guiren, who was in full bloom, lost his favor in an instant.
But Queen Yin did not stop investigating Deng Guiren, but strangely, the Qianyuan Hall seemed to have become a dead palace, and the people she sent in. I can only go in, but I can't get out again. I wanted to make a big deal out of it, but I couldn't catch any solid evidence. had to let his father and brother spread rumors in the court, claiming that Deng Guiren colluded with the deposed Empress Dowager Dou and had a bad intention.
Deng Sui, who had already aroused discussion inside and outside the court, caused an uproar in the court. The imperial historians have come to the table. Ask the Emperor to find out the truth. Dispose of Deng Guiren. Liu Zhao quietly burned the book, and at this moment, Liu Qing brought some courtiers to the table to speak for Deng Guiren. refuted everyone's remarks, and there have been two factions in the DPRK and China, and Liu Zhao is in this whirlpool, like a small boat without slurry, turning with a headache. originally thought that the appeasement of Yin Li would make her no longer pursue the matter. But I didn't expect that the yin glass was falling into the well. I can't wait to get rid of it quickly, so Sui'er was placed on the cusp again, which Liu Zhaowan didn't expect.
After a few snowfalls, the North and South Palaces entered winter. Yin Li was busy with the affairs of various palaces, and there was no way to find out the conclusive evidence of Deng Guiren, so he gradually became lazy and asked less questions. In the afternoon of this day, Sui'er was sitting and reading, but saw Zhao Yu open the curtain and come in and said, "Miss, Cai Changshou is here, I want to see Niangniang, saying that I want to show Niangniang something." ”
Sui'er raised her head and glanced at her, and said lightly: "Call him in!" ”
Cai Lun rushed in and saluted and said, "Niangniang, the minister is back, and he brought something to Niangniang, please show Niangniang?" ”
Sui'er put down the book, looked at Cai Lun, and saw that he was wearing a cotton coat, the cloak on his body, his bald head was not wearing a hat, his smooth face was full of joy and excitement, and his soft eyes were shining.
Sui'er smiled: "Isn't the old servant done?" ”
Cai Lun nodded and said, "It's done, it's still a little hot, and the minister has to think again." But this ready-made thing is also worth seeing. As he spoke, he took out a roll of white things from his arms, put it on Sui'er's desk, and looked at Deng Sui with a smile.
Deng Sui carefully looked at the white thing, and said that it was white with a hint of gray. Reaching out and picking it up, the portion is extremely light, and when it is opened, it is a long one, smooth, soft, not brittle, and there are no blemishes. It is extremely comfortable to touch in the hand, only a little rough. It looks like satin but not like it, and it smells like a faint woody fragrance.
"What is this?" She was very curious, and slowly rubbed her fingers, and there was a feeling of warmth in her tentacles.
"Tell the mother, this is a thing, the minister calls it "paper"! Cai Lun replied respectfully.
"Paper?" Sui'er touched it again and asked, "What you said is that you can write?" ”
"Exactly, Niangniang, you see." After that, Cai Lun picked up the ink on the case and wrote a big blessing on the paper.
Sui'er was overjoyed and said: "Good things, are they made by the regular servants?" If you use this paper to write a book, it is thin and light, isn't it much lighter and more convenient than writing with bamboo slips? ”。
"Yes, the minister thinks so too, but the minister still has some problems to deal with, for example, this paper is still a little thick, it needs to be thinner, and the minister also needs to make it have a certain degree of flexibility, so that it is not easy to break. Niangniang, this is the first sample that the minister has made these days, without eating or sleeping. Niangniang, if you think it is feasible, the minister will work harder, and he will definitely make better paper. Cai Lun couldn't hide his excitement, and kept talking.
Sui'er loves to read the most, and naturally can't put it down, but after thinking about it for a while, he said: "Cai Changshi, Sui'er is just a small nobleman in the palace, and this matter can't be the master. ”
Cai Lun has been outside the palace and has not entered the palace, of course he doesn't know what happened in the palace, he was stunned for a moment when he heard Sui'er's sudden resignation, but he was alert and expected something to happen here. It's just that he decided that Sui'er will be the master of the harem in the future, and this little ditch Xiaokan is nothing, so he smiled and said: "What Niangniang said is that the minister is also about to tell the emperor, but the minister still said, Niangniang, no matter what you encounter, Niangniang's status in the emperor's heart will not change." As long as the mother likes it, how can the emperor not allow it? "Say it. gave a salute again, exited the West Palace, and beat Liu Zhao.
His words. Sui'er was stunned for a long time. Looking out the window, the meager light of the sun, like a withered yellow leaf, falls into people's hearts one by one. The palace is terrifyingly quiet, these days, the emperor has been in the palace of all the concubines, but he has not come to her, except for the occasional Song Jun who sometimes brings Liu Sheng over. and that Su Zhao'er would occasionally come and laugh for a while, just like a cold palace, so cold that he didn't have much popularity. The days of the old days. It seems that they are far away and will never come back.
Zhao Yu came in quietly, and when she saw that she was looking out the window, she coughed lightly and said, "Miss." I warmed the lotus seed porridge for you. Drink some! ”
Sui'er didn't look back, and said softly: "I heard that a long time ago, there was a bird in the world that was very loving, and if the partner died, the other one often didn't live for half a year. It's a pity that it's just a legend, and no one has ever seen it. ”
"Miss, what do you say? That shouldn't have been said. The emperor who swore to you is not worthy of dying for him! She put the bowl on the table, still feeling breathless. It's a pleasure to say it. But Sui'er interrupted her.
"Sister Yu, I am not sad that the emperor does not come to me, my heart, when I first entered the palace, has been sealed, and the people are warm and cold, not to mention, he is the emperor who has the world and many concubines. Therefore, some words and some things are good to know in your heart, and if you say them, you will inevitably fall into the mouth of others. The more you care, the more sad you become. If you don't think about it, it will fade. It's like," she said here and stopped, remembering the days when she was opposite Liu Qing, and her heart hurt for no reason. The tears that were about to well-up in the corners of his eyes were swallowed.
After drinking a few mouthfuls of porridge, his stomach warmed up, and he sighed and said, "I'm bored for a long time, it's always Su Zhao'er who comes to see me, how about we go and see her?" In this palace, although I have lived for a few months, I have not gone out for a few walks, I think I am lazy, the snow is beautiful these days, I should go out, you find out my fox fur cloak, that is-" I thought of Liu Qing in my heart, the fox fur cloak was specially sent by him when he was afraid that he would keep filial piety and be cold. Now that everything has changed, I can't help but sigh again.
"I still have that one, since the winter, it is better to be at home in this palace that day, not to mention that the charcoal sent is not good, and even the materials of the nobles' winter cotton clothes are not ready. I went to urge it a few times before it was delivered. You don't go out, I haven't gotten out yet. If you want to wear it, you have to wear the old one. "Zhao Yu's complaints are a lot.
Sui'er smiled and said: "The courtesy of the people in the harem is all based on the favor of the emperor, if you lose your favor, you can't help but stop in the cold palace." The queen has always felt that I am not pleasing to my eyes, and now it is a good opportunity to suppress me, how can I have no worries about food and clothing? That's it, I don't love this either, so I can use whatever I have! Sui'er put on the cloak that Zhao Yu took out, tied the belt, and the powder makeup was so jade, even Zhao Yu praised: "Miss, I love to be talkative, but I can't understand, how can the emperor be such a stunning beauty like you?" ”
Sui'er interrupted her words and said: "A lot of mouth, that is, a lot of mouth, whether the emperor comes or not, what he thinks in his heart, we won't know, why complain every day, you can't see me quiet for a day, right?" She was slightly angry, and her face was even more delicate, as beautiful as a begonia flower, and Zhao Yu sighed.
Push open the door and walk out, but see that the eyes are full of white, and the red wall in the palace is in the snow, but it is like a little plum blossom, reflecting very beautifully. The wind suddenly blew the long hair, like willow silk flying among the flowers, and the branches were affectionate. Sui'er stood still, letting the wind roll up her sleeves and cloak, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, like a spring flower blooming.
Outside the door, Sun Jue and Su Lan'er were already standing in the snow waiting, Sui'er felt that she couldn't go, so she hurriedly walked over and said, "Manager Sun, Sister Lan'er, I have been rising, but I let you freeze in the snow, is it Sui'er's." ”
Sun Jue said: "Niangniang is our master, this is a matter of duty, and Niangniang doesn't have to worry about it, but Niangniang is wearing a little thin today, is it a thicker dress?" ”
Su Lan'er also said: "Yes, Niangniang, it's very cold these days, don't blow the cold wind and get sick." ”
Sui'er smiled and said: "I can't help but be so weak, I can not help the wind and rain, I used to be able to guard the filial piety in the wild for three years, what else can stump Sui'er." Let's go, I haven't been to the place of the Su Gong people, is it far from here? ”。
She said that she had already walked out, Sun Jue took Su Lan'er, Zhao Yu and a few attendants, trotted to follow, and said as she walked: "Niangniang, it's not far, turn the pavilion in front of you, and then walk through a section of the palace wall." Su Gong is a person who can't be idle, and she always goes out for a walk, but she doesn't go to other people's palaces, only to her mother, the same relatives. ”
"Oh? She always told me about her childhood, interesting and tight, although there are many people here, but they all have things hidden in their hearts, and it is not easy to meet a confidant. I also see her like a sister, I should have seen her a long time ago, but I was too lazy. ”
As he was saying this, he looked up and saw a large group of people running in a mess ahead, Sui'er was stunned and stopped. (To be continued......)
