Chapter Ninety-Six: Cherry (Two Chapters in One)

When Shi Qingqing woke up again, it was the next day, and the completely unfamiliar luxury made Shi Qingqing in a trance for a while, and even more, she thought that she had crossed over again. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Shi Qingqing lifted the brocade jacket and sat on the bed for a long time, she couldn't help but look around, the furnishings of the room and all the objects were something she had never seen, a tassel on the top of her head swayed gently in the wind, Shi Qingqing moved her body uncomfortably, but found that the bed under her was cold and hard, even if the complex and gorgeous clouds and silk were spread under the water, it was always soft but also very thin.

The tables and chairs made of rosewood around are also more tough, and Shi Qingqing sighed, it looks like a man's room.

"Are you awake?" Xia Han whispered outside the room.

Shi Qingqing stood up with a spirit, "Seventh brother? Seeing that he was burying his head in something, he couldn't help but ask, "Are you back?" ”

Xia Han let out a soft 'um' and stopped paying attention to her.

Shi Qingqing thought that this must be a temporary palace prepared by the emperor to facilitate him to deal with affairs, and he was usually in his Hanwang Mansion, but speaking of which, Shi Qingqing had never been to his mansion, and he didn't know what it was like.

Shi Qingqing thought about it and walked outside the hall, the morning was slightly cool, and the fragrance after the rain, Shi Qingqing suddenly remembered that he wanted to be tolerant, and hurriedly ran in again.

"Brother Seven, I want to ask you something." Since Shi Qingqing subconsciously regarded her as a royal person, she no longer had an estrangement with Xia Han as before, and she thought that she was close.

But whether Xia Han is like this, Shi Qingqing is not sure, seeing that he didn't answer, he thought he didn't agree, so he couldn't help biting his lip and whispering: "Then forget it." ”

Shi Qingqing turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Xia Han.

"Yesterday, you were cold to the bones, and your knees should not move around much, the imperial doctor has come to see it, and told you to rest well, I ordered someone to prepare breakfast, use some first, right?"

Shi Qingqing nodded indiscriminately, sighing in his heart that he couldn't imagine that the medical skills of the Tai Hospital were so superb, and he could make her recover overnight, and he was also happy, thinking that Xia Han was willing to help, and Xia Han's status in the emperor's mind should have some weight, and it would definitely be successful, Shi Qingqing thought so, so he walked to the food table, and said with a smile: "Cheng, then hurry up and serve it?" When you say that, I'm really hungry. ”

Xia Han saw that Shi Qingqing smiled without a trace of defense, and couldn't help frowning, feeling a little strange, but he couldn't remember what was strange, so he had to give up and go outside to call someone to prepare a meal.

The meal was prepared quickly, two fried Luo juniper and Tianluo tendons, two bowls of Muxi orange porridge, a plate of pickled bamboo shoots, and a plate of white raillo.

Shi Qingqing ate quickly and fragrantly, Xia Han couldn't help but eat a small half bowl when he saw her eating appearance, Shi Qingqing had nothing to do, just stared at Xia Han, "Seventh brother, you eat really Sven!" I couldn't help but sigh, and said, "Is it because the mouth is too small, like a cherry?" ”

As soon as Xia Han heard this, he automatically made up last night's 'cherry', the porridge in his mouth was accidentally stuck in his throat, choking and coughing, and even his face was flushed.

Shi Qingqing couldn't help but be bothered, "Seventh brother, it's a lot darker when you go out this time?" ”

Before Xia Han could answer, there was a commotion outside the hall, and Shi Qingqing's smile suddenly froze at the corner of his mouth.

Xia Han also heard it, and even heard it earlier, waved his hand to let the maid stand down, and said to Shi Qingqing, "Qing'er, this matter is a foregone conclusion, don't ...... it."

Shi Qingqing couldn't listen at all, "You asked me to stay here just to watch and want to enter the palace?" ”

"Even if you go, what can you do? Do you want to kneel all the time? It doesn't help at all, when did you become so stupid that you couldn't see the situation clearly? Xia Han poked at the key point directly, forcing Shi Qingqing to look at the current reality, "Xiang Rong has already entered the palace." ”

Shi Qingqing turned to look at him, tears rolling down his face, and asked, "If it were you, would you give up because you understood that there is no place to turn?" ”

Xia Han froze on the ground, and couldn't help but think of the fact that when his mother died, he knelt in the Jiaofang Hall of the Shuntian Hall to intercede, it seemed... It's like this...

"It's one thing to understand, it's another thing to do it or not, and now it's not with you, why do you bother." Xia Han abandoned the distracting thoughts in his heart, and took Shi Qingqing's hand and still didn't let go, "If you want to save the people around you, why don't you save yourself first, you are satisfied with the protection of your father, and the high praise of the master's family, what about yourself?" Have you ever really put yourself in your present and future shoes and think that your bones are cowardly so that you will repeatedly let the people around you have accidents, haven't you ever thought of redeeming them with your own strength? As the first emperor of your father's own office, the power is at your fingertips, but you have never cultivated your own power, Mama Lu is waiting by your side, but you only use her to serve tea, have you ever used the power behind her to plan for yourself? If you are strong, why do you need to ask for help? ”

Xia Han said quickly, and he was a little stunned at the end, this was more like saying to himself at the beginning, but Shi Qingqing was silent at the moment and wanted to enter the palace in sadness, but he didn't notice it.

No one has ever said such things to her, and no one has said them so thoroughly, what if you have status here, no real power is equal to empty words, and it is equivalent to waiting for death.

Shi Qingqing knew, but she always thought that as long as she worked hard to integrate into this world and become one of them, she would be able to spend this life safely and happily with her friends and the people she liked, but it turned out that all this was just a dream.

Shi Qingqing raised her tearful face and asked Xia Han, "Why do you always like to force me?" I don't want to come here, you let me come, I want to guard Xi'er and guard Qingyuan for the rest of my life, you force me, Xi'er can't speak, I want to enter the palace as a concubine, if Yan dies, you always force me...... Why? Why? Shi Qingqing beat Xia Han's chest, although for Xia Han it was like scratching his boots without pain or itching, but Shi Qingqing's tears fell on his hands, and his clothes were like being burned to leave a brand, which made Xia Han frown, whether he was talking harshly.

Xia Han gently patted Shi Qingqing's back, which was regarded as the other party's scolding to appease her, and she couldn't help but think that she was almost tall but still so tall, "Don't cry, it's useless to cry, if you have the heart to change, so that you will no longer be in such a passive situation in the future, turn around and go home, go back to your Qingyuan, and don't see anyone." ”

Shi Qingqing wiped away her tears when she heard this, turned around and walked out of the hall, Xia Han smiled bitterly, I don't know whether to say that she is obedient or that her emotions recover quickly?

Xia Han looked at the suddenly empty palm in his hand, shook his head invisibly, and whispered to Xia Xue who was hidden in the shadows: "You go to the dark place and follow her until she enters the mansion." ”

After speaking, he went to the bookcase to continue writing, but the table was not an official business, just a painting, the person who painted the cherry mouth, willow eyes and plum cheeks, a big face, and a hibiscus out of the water......

Xia Han added one last stroke, but the ink quickly dried up, so he hid the painting at the bottom of the dark ground, and did not see the light of day.

......

Shi Qingqing walked to the palace gate, and Liu Bo of the Shi family was waiting in the carriage, but Shi Qingqing just wanted to walk alone today, so he walked up to Liu Bo and said with a smile: "Uncle Liu, the bun shop on East Street has reopened today, I want to try it, there are many people there, the carriage is not easy to walk, and when it is estimated that it will be sold out, I will walk alone, you can go back first!" ”

Uncle Liu looked at Shi Qingqing's eyes that were still reddened, and his heart was sour, the third miss entered the palace early this morning, the eldest lady and the third miss are like sisters, but unfortunately the difference in generations in the future is 108,000 miles, how can she still have the heart to eat what buns, but Uncle Liu has lived for most of her life, how can she not understand that she wants to walk alone, so that she will not feel desolate in the lively street market.

Liu Bo moved his gaze slightly, not looking at Shi Qingqing's eyes, and said with a smile: "Cheng, then Emperor Ji, be careful, there are indeed a lot of people today, it is lively, there will be a dragon and lion dance in East City later, Emperor Ji go to see a lively one, but you have to pay attention to safety." ”

Shi Qingqing responded with a smile, no matter how lively it is, how can there be a lively Yilan Hall in the palace.

But Shi Qingqing still wanted to go and see, after all, there was a human touch there that was not in the palace.

Shi Qingqing said goodbye to Liu Bo and walked to Dongshi alone, but when he arrived at the street, he learned that the emperor had granted amnesty to the world, not only that the death penalty could be exempted from capital crimes, but that all those who had been sentenced to death for three years or less would be released, and that all of them would be halved.

Scold......

But I don't know why, Shi Qingqing couldn't laugh sincerely, and even thought very guiltily, what does the life and death of these people have to do with her, she just wants her to come back, what Concubine Rong, what teacher's family, what palace gate, what honor, to hell with it!

But Shi Qingqing can only think about it so sinfully.

Xia Han is right, she is cowardly in her bones.

Shi Qingqing continued to walk forward, and saw that Xiao Er of Yunyang Pavilion was soliciting customers, he recognized Shi Qingqing, even if he didn't recognize it, he knew that Shi Qingqing's clothes were the most popular style this summer, and everyone who wore this clothes was a guest.

Xiao Er came to Shi Qingqing's side and began to introduce the food in the Yunyang Pavilion very enthusiastically, "This girl, you have been in the future for a long time, right?" ”

"Today is the day when our Yunyang Pavilion has a new vegetable field, can the girl go in and try it?"

Seeing that Shi Qingqing didn't answer, Xiao Er didn't think that the three words of Yunyang Pavilion were not attractive enough, but thought that Shi Qingqing was shy, after all, a dish in Yunyang Pavilion was a trivial matter, "Girl, today is a good day, although the girl goes in to try the dishes, if you like it, let Xiao Er send it to the house." ”

Shi Qingqing stopped, raised his eyes and asked him, "Today is a good day?" ”

Xiao Er thought that he had guessed his mind, and couldn't help but continue to persuade, "Naturally, the emperor will amnesty the world for Concubine Rong, and the people will be happy. Girl, later, they will definitely pass by here, and you have the best view on the second floor of our Yunyang Pavilion to keep it. ”

Shi Qingqing sighed, and then asked, "Isn't it that everyone in Dijing rushed to come to the new dishes from Yunyang Pavilion?" What's the matter, do you still need the second brother to come out in person? ”

The little second brother's eyes rolled, and naturally he wouldn't tell her about the opening of a new store elsewhere in Dijing and stealing business with them, but said: "Maybe it's too lively today, and there are not as many people as usual, and the chef who cooks is worried that the taste will not meet everyone's taste, so he asked me to invite it." ”

"I see." Shi Qingqing nodded, "Then you will lead the way." ”

Shi Qingqing had nowhere to go at this time, although he was having a meal just now, he was not hungry now, but he was just thinking about finding a place to sit for a while.

The second brother was very attentive, and he brought Shi Qingqing to a good position, and when he looked at it from top to bottom, he not only had a good vision, but also could see people's expressions and appearances clearly.

The dishes were also quickly served, the color and flavor were complete, the master who cooked the dishes explained them one by one on the side, but Shi Qingqing didn't listen much, most of the people downstairs were old and weak, and most of the cowards were a look, and even the corners of the eyebrows and eyes were dyed with joy, but Shi Qingqing couldn't eat it anymore.

The chef thought he had lost his hand, and looked at the shopkeeper on the ground, not knowing what to do.

Shi Qingqing stood up and was about to leave, but found that the two of them looked very unnatural, so he couldn't help but understand, thought about it, and said: "The peak of the purple camel comes out of the emerald cauldron, and the plate of the water spirit is lined with scales; The rhinoceros has not been eaten for a long time, and the luan knife is hollow; The yellow door does not move the dust, and the imperial kitchen sends eight treasures. ”

After speaking, he said: "If you ask for money, you will go to the Han Palace, and say that it is for Luo Qing to enjoy it, and say goodbye." ”

The chef and the shopkeeper were still silent in the 'Eight Treasures', and when they heard that King Han was about to salute, they saw that there were still people there.

I had to tell Xiao Er to memorize the poem that Fang Caishi Qingqing chanted, pick it up and frame it so that it could be hung in the palace, that was the person of the Han King, and now this business is saved......

Shi Qingqing naturally didn't know that she had unintentionally earned a reputation as a talented person for Xia Han, and was about to return home, originally just wanting to watch the excitement and make herself look less desolate, but she didn't want to feel more and more lonely.

"Look, look, Dumen Academy has recruited Mr., if I was a Xiucai at that time, I wouldn't be a gentleman this year, it's good!" Someone sighed.

"Originally, my mother was still depressed because I only won the show, I didn't want to let her know that I became the husband of the ferry gate, wouldn't it make her old man happy?" Someone is happy.

Shi Qingqing looked at the crowd, and it was really the mark of Dumen Academy.

Shi Qingqing thought about it, maybe this is not a way to go!

Dongshi and Shifu are separated by two streets, and Shi Qingqing thought that since he didn't plan to stay here, he would go straight to his home, so he couldn't help but speed up his pace even more.

There were still big red wedding cloths and red lanterns hanging in front of the Shi's mansion, and Shi Qingqing's foot couldn't step in anyway, so he entered through the back door instead.

As soon as he entered the Qingyuan, Shi Qingqing instructed Mama Lu: "Mama, I bother you to close the Qingyuan, and no one is allowed to enter." ”

Before Mama had time to recover from her surprise, Shi Qingqing said again: "Tomorrow, I will go to Dumen to report, and if anyone asks, you will say that I am seriously ill and need to recuperate, and I can't see each other." (To be continued.) )
