Chapter 176: Selfish Soul
Gao Jin went directly to the early dynasty and ordered someone to remind the dark soul to ask Miao Ji for peace;
After receiving the rumors from the palace people, the dark soul understood Gao Jin's intentions, if Gao Jin was on a long-term road, although she could not be his shoes, she could at least clear some inconsequential gravel on the road for him.
After dressing up, the dark soul came to Miao Ji's Fengyi Palace, because there was no one to guard outside the hall, the dark soul walked directly in, only to see, Miao Ji sat in front of the bronze mirror, still disheveled, it seemed that she had just gotten up, from the bronze mirror, she seemed a little haggard, and a little tired.
The dark soul didn't dare to linger longer, owing a debt, "The concubine came to ask the queen for peace." ”
Miao Ji glanced at the dark soul from the bronze mirror, then got up, and said with a smile, "Concubine Rong got up early, but the palace has not yet changed her outfit, but she wants to make Concubine Rong smile." ”
"The concubine didn't dare, it was the concubine who came abruptly, disturbing the mother, and I hope the mother will forgive the sins." The Dark Soul bowed her head and said, whether she was sincere or fake, etiquette always had to be in place.
"Concubine Rong's words are serious, it is because the palace did not rest last night, so that she got up this morning and night, if Concubine Rong has nothing important, there is Concubine Rong waiting in the palace." Miao Ji is still smiling, if you want to deal with a man, you must first start with the woman next to him.
The dark soul smiled and said, "The concubine is waiting for the mother." As he spoke, he gestured with his head, and then led by the palace maid to the side hall, Miao Ji was undoubtedly fighting a woman's psychological war with her, so she deliberately revealed the scene of last night;
No matter how broad-minded a woman is, she has a narrow side, especially when facing a woman who shares her deep love, her narrow-minded psychology will become more and more compact;
The dark soul was in the side hall, drinking tea, the tea was tasteless, and her thoughts were even more depressed, although she repeatedly warned herself that this was only the beginning. About half an hour later, the palace maid introduced the dark soul into the main hall, Miao Ji was already a peach blossom-like decoration, seeing the dark soul coming, but also got up to greet him, it seemed that there was no queen's posture, but the momentum was better than the queen's delicateness.
"Let Concubine Rong wait for a long time, come and sit down." Miao Ji was full of enthusiasm and pulled the dark spirit, not caring about her identity as a queen at all.
"The concubine doesn't dare." Dark Soul said, the expression on her face was not inferior to her in the slightest, Miao Ji looked at Dark Soul a little confused;
The dark soul smiled again and said, "The queen doesn't know, the palace has always had a rule, all the queen-palace concubines ask the queen for the first time, they must personally make a tea cup and offer it, but the concubines are not good at tea, and I hope that the mother will not dislike it." ”
Miao Ji didn't think much about it, and said with a smile: "I don't want Beiliang Palace to have such rules." The dark soul smiled, and Miao Ji said, "Since this is the case, then there is Concubine Lao Rong." ”
The dark soul pursed his mouth and said, "It is the luck of the concubine to be able to serve tea for the mother." ”
Miao Ji smiled, raised her head and said to the palace people on the side, "Come and serve tea cups for Concubine Rong." ”
The palace people on the side bowed their heads, and then put on a set of exquisite tea sets for the dark soul; The dark soul put the tea leaves into the teacup, the hot water, poured into the cup, the shrunken tea instantly stretched, the dark soul poured out the first hand of tea, and then brewed a second time, at the moment of pouring the water, her little finger of the Kodan, slightly touched in the water, the powder in the Kodan, also followed the water to stay in the cup, her skillful movements, not attracting attention at all, a short time to brew a cup of fragrant tea.
The dark spirit knelt down in front of Miao Ji with the teacup, raised the tea cup above her head and handed it to Miao Ji, "Please use the tea for the queen mother." ”
Gao Jin's instructions came a little suddenly, she could only put the contraceptive medicine in the Kodan, on the grounds of tea ceremony, in order to have a chance to let Miao Ji take it, for this strange queen, they all need time to explore.
Miao Ji took the teacup, casually put it to her mouth and took a sip, the taste of tea seems to be very refreshing, in this cold winter, there is a cup of hot tea to keep warm, it seems to be very suitable, so she took another sip, until the cold of the body was driven away, and then put down the teacup, which also found that the dark soul was still kneeling in front of him, so he hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Concubine Rong, hurry up." ”
The dark soul replied, for her, Miao Ji was deliberately snubbing her, but at first, she was worried that Miao Ji would only take a sip of the tea cup and affect the efficacy of the medicine, but now, she didn't have to worry about it at all.
The two found some topics at random, and they chatted harmoniously, because Lin Xuan'er never came to ask for peace, the dark soul found an excuse for her, saying that she was not in good health, and Miao Ji didn't care much.
Recently, Gao Jin has been neglecting the harem on the grounds of government affairs, Miao Ji and the dark soul are easy for him to deal with, only Lin Xuan'er He doesn't dare to face it, before she is fully adapted, he will give her time to forget, all he wants is for her to stay by his side;
And Lin Xuan'er's avoidance of Gao Jin can only prove that he is weak and timid, in fact, it doesn't matter if he doesn't see each other, if he doesn't see him, she doesn't have to face it, and if he doesn't see it, she won't hate it so much.
On this day, Lin Xuan'er returned to the Lin Mansion under Gao Jin's arrangement; And Lin Mo is not in the mansion, in the huge mansion, there are only two people, Cui'er and Xiaoying;
Even if the Lin Mansion has returned to its former appearance, it still can't return to the warmth it once had, just like a simple heart, after going through vicissitudes, it can't return to the simplicity it once was.
Lin Xuan'er spread all the people around her, leaving only Cui'er alone, the two of them wandered in the backyard, it was the winter season, there was no scenery to enjoy in the courtyard, a slight cold wind blew from all sides, they didn't feel the slightest cold;
When she arrived at a pavilion, Lin Xuan'er walked in and sat down first, Cui'er had already sensed her displeasure, but she didn't plan to ask, because it was not time for her to know the way, so she simply sat down beside her.
Lin Xuan'er pondered for a long time, and finally asked, "Cui'er, are you willing to enter the palace with me?" ”
Cui'er was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile, "Cui'er is the girl's slave, so she should naturally follow the girl." ”
The palace is a good place for aspiring women, but for her or her, it is a bottomless backwater, although she doesn't know the meaning of Lin Xuan'er's words, but she can sense that her words mean something.
"Don't you want to know what Lu Dao is for?" Lin Xuan'er knew that as long as she said it, Cui'er would definitely not refuse, but she didn't want her to regret it in the future, and she didn't want her to know her selfishness and resent herself.
Cui'er smiled forcefully, and shook her head gently, it wasn't that she didn't want to know how to say, but she didn't know how to speak, or rather, she didn't know how to choose.
Lin Xuan'er took her hand and said with a stunned face, "I know that you have affection for my brother, but my brother only wants a quiet stay away from the world, so he has been hiding his identity, but now my identity is different, and the tranquility he wants is difficult to have, so we have to stay away from him and give him a life he wants." ”
Lin Xuan'er deeply understands that if Cui'er is left in the Lin Mansion, with the affection between her and Cui'er, they will definitely come and go often, and Gao Jin will definitely closely observe her movements on his own thoughts, then Lin Mo's identity will be exposed sooner or later, if they don't get along, Gao Jin will be even more suspicious, so she selfishly chose to break them up, she had no selfish psychology, but they all had a selfish soul.
When Cui'er heard this, she finally understood the reason, she knew a little about Lin Mo's past, but at this time, she didn't need to understand too much, for the fiery feelings in her heart, she nodded decisively and firmly.
"Don't you hate me?" Lin Xuan'er looked at Cui'er with a guilty face, if it weren't for her, maybe they could have a complete and worry-free life.
Cui'er shook her head gloomily, "If you want to hate, you hate that we didn't meet at the right time." ”
There are too many encounters in the world, different times, different places, different people, often too early or too late, the real right time to meet, how many times in the world, perhaps, everyone is looking forward to that coincidental encounter all their lives, or to survive for that momentary encounter.
"As long as we have met, it is not a pity." Lin Xuan'er looked away, her expression was as empty as she was, in her life, as long as the most beautiful encounter was transformed into the most poignant memories, this was enough.
Cui'er glanced at Lin Xuan'er, who had a sad face, and smiled desolately, she could imagine that she had faced the pain of giving up Song Jingran, and in the face of choices, everyone had a helpless and fragile side.
Since Lin Mo had not returned to the palace, Lin Xuan'er sent someone back to the palace to inform Gao Jin, saying that she was suddenly unwell and wanted to stay in the Lin Mansion for one night, because she knew that the palace people around her were Gao Jin's eyes.
Lin Mo didn't return to the house until evening, and when he heard that Lin Xuan'er was in the house, he was very excited and went straight to the garden, because he had too many questions and wanted her to answer them;
When Lin Mo arrived in the garden, she saw her swinging on the swing she loved, although it was a cold winter, she still had a leisurely attitude, looking up at the sky with indifferent eyes, and a calm face, how many unknown secrets were hidden, and how many pains that others could not understand;
This scene reminded him of his childhood, but her body and mind at this time could no longer see the innocence and innocence of childhood, but desolation and loneliness, suddenly, he subsided all the doubts in his heart, he just wanted to protect her and give her spiritual comfort.
"Xuan'er" Lin Mo reminded and followed her.
Lin Xuan'er withdrew her eyes in the air, looked at Lin Mo and smiled, and called out softly, "Brother"
Lin Mo walked beside her and helped her gently push the swing, just like when she was a child;
Lin Xuan'er just let him push him, closed his eyes, and completely recalled the time when he was a child, at that time, they had no troubles, only laughter, at that time, they had no pain, only happiness, at that time, they were like flowers in spring, blooming their own beauty wantonly, at that time, they had the purest love, the most true love.
Now, trouble has replaced their laughter, pain has replaced happiness, from flowers in spring to frost and snow in winter, after years of reincarnation, they still have a fiery heart, true love, but no longer pure love.
