"Mother's craftsmanship is unparalleled in the world, who else in this world can compare to Mother?" I raised a smile on my face, "But don't worry, the clothes you make, the child will be cherished and cherished, and they will never be worn out casually and damaged." ”

"You, you love to be poor." Ning Su was amused by me, raised his hand and pointed at my head, "When you have someone in the future, won't you be laughed at by others?" ”

I was stunned for a moment, then smiled and looked away, "Grandmother can't tolerate me anymore?" ”

"What are you talking about?" Ning Su got up in a hurry, took my hand and persuaded me, "After all, you can't live like this forever, because my mother knows that you don't like Wei Yinghou's Mansion and don't like your ancestors, but she is right in one sentence, in the future, you will have to find someone to marry, husband and children." ”

I brushed her hand away and stood up.

"Is that what a mother expects from her child?" I turned my back and didn't dare to look at the look in my mother's eyes.

Ning Su looked at me, her eyes suddenly turned red, she clenched the half-sewn Yuezhu white shirt in her hand little by little, and choked up, "Yes, the expectation of my mother's life is to hope that you can marry a confidant and spend your life safely and smoothly." For my mother, I don't want you to be famous, and I don't want you to leave a name in history, praised by thousands of people, I just want to have someone who can accompany you, love you, tolerate everything about you, and block all the wind and rain for you. ”

"Qingzhi, I'm a useless mother, I can't protect my children, so I want such a person to appear in your life...... You have endured enough hardships, do you still have to watch you struggle desperately in the officialdom for your mother for the rest of your life? ”

It was as if something had struck me in my chest, and it hurt so badly that I could only bite my lower lip and try to calm myself, but the sharp sourness still flowed slowly down all the veins in my body like a trickle, until it all filled my heart.

"Mother." It took me a long time before I turned to face her, "Will you take you away?" At the end of the earth, let's go to find a place with flowers and water together, live our own lives peacefully, and no longer care about the rights and wrongs in Wei Yinghou's mansion. ”

His face turned pale suddenly, Ning Su opened his eyes, and said, "Wei Niang is now a person from the Hou Mansion, how can she say that she will leave if she leaves?" The ancestor's body is not as good as before, although there are maids, but she always needs a caring person to take care of her, and your father ......"

"The child understands what the mother means." My heart was so cold that I didn't dare to listen to my mother's words anymore, and after saying this, I didn't even say a word of goodbye, and rushed out of the stone pavilion in a panic.

"Green Branches!"

My mother called me behind me, but I didn't dare to stop at all, and walked straight out of Qijingxuan, and at the end, I even felt like I was about to run wildly, but in fact, I just walked faster than usual.

The clothes are windy, Peiyu sings softly, I am still the personable young man.

Oh, ridiculous.

I went to the ancestral hall, didn't go in, just lifted my clothes and knelt down outside, the autumn wind was blowing, and there was a kind of sadness.

Raising my head slightly, I looked at the rows of gold-inlaid tablets in front of me, the corners of my mouth twitched, and I smiled and muttered, "Probably I am your most unworthy descendant......

But so what? I don't care anymore.

The old ancestor was also very angry with me this time, and it was not until the sunset was setting and the moon was beginning to rise that she sent someone to let me go back.

I resisted the numbness and tingling in my legs, and walked out of the corner gate of Wei Yinghou's mansion alone.

"It's dry, be careful with the fire...... Hey, Childe, are you alright? ”

Because of the long punishment of kneeling, I was walking in the night road, and my leg suddenly hurt, and then the whole leg lost sensation.

When I threw myself forward, I really didn't think that someone would come to help me.

"Huh? It's you, Prime Minister. The watchman saw my face clearly with the lantern in his hand, and couldn't help but exclaim.

"You know me?" I frowned and quietly pushed away his hand that was holding me.

This watchman looked middle-aged, but when he touched the back of his head and laughed, he was a little silly, he first shook his head, and then nodded vigorously, which made me confused.

"Although the little one is here at night, during the day, the little one will set up a small stall on the side of Baique Road, so the little one can often see you go to the palace."

"I see." I nodded and waved at him, "Thank you for your help." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!" The man who beat the watch jumped back in fright, and he couldn't help it.

I just smiled at his reaction and didn't speak.

"By the way, in the past few months, the little one hasn't seen you walk along the White Bird Road, is the adult going far away?"

I nodded, "yes." ”

"Your Excellency, did you have a smooth journey? With such a thin body, you have to pay attention to the time of day and prepare warm and cold clothes. ”

I was stunned, a little unintelligible about what he was saying.

"It's going to be winter soon, if the adults need it, the small one can let the mother-in-law make a pair of hand cages for you, she can't do anything else, it's just that this thing is well done." The watchman couldn't help but say to me with concern when he saw that I was wearing so little at night.

"I ......" I didn't know how to answer him.

I never imagined that the first person who cared about me for the past four months was a stranger with whom I had never been in contact.

Even ...... Even my mother was only concerned about my father's injury, and never asked me, 'How are I doing these days?' I love to read Chinese

Is this God's mercy on me, or God's punishment for me?

"I still don't bother Mrs. Zun." I thought about it for a long time, and finally I could only reply to him like this: "I'm busy on weekdays, so I can't use it." ”

The watchman probably also knew that I was the lord of glory and wealth, and he could not enjoy it enough, so he did not force it, but just sent the lantern in his hand forward and put it in my hand.

"It's dark at night, so adults should take my lantern."

"No, no." I quickly refused and handed the lantern back, "You work at night, how can you miss the lantern?" ”

The watchman smiled and said, "This road is small, I have walked for almost half a lifetime, why do you need this thing, but just pretending, you are the parent official of our people, and you are not familiar with the road here, if there is no lantern lit, isn't it dangerous?" ”

"No......" I was about to refuse, but he said, 'It's not too early, the small ones are gone', and he strode away.

I stared in the direction he had left, and felt that the lantern in my hand was brighter and more scorching than the daylight.

It took more than an hour, I finally walked back to the Prime Minister's Mansion on foot, when Wang Jie came out to pick me up, his face was strange, as if something terrible had happened, but when I followed him into the Mingxuan Hall, I finally realized that something terrible had indeed happened during the time I was away.

"You ......"

I stared blankly at the candle flames, full of people sitting in a circle, and suddenly I had a feeling that I was in a catastrophe.

"This ...... What a coincidence, everyone is ......" I laughed awkwardly, and immediately retreated out of the hall, who knew that my legs were so uncompromising, trembling because I didn't feel and couldn't support my body.

"Green Branches." A pair of hands suddenly stretched out behind me and held my shoulders steadily, I subconsciously looked back, and saw Du Rong looking at the people in the lobby with a subtle expression.

I turned back in an instant, and saw that all the people who had been sitting upright had risen one after another, and some had even taken a step towards me.

"Ahem." I coughed lightly twice, knowing that I couldn't escape, so I could only go in with Du Rong and find an empty seat to sit down.

"Shen Qingzhi, what's wrong with you? Does your leg hurt? The first to speak was Cen Yuhe, who ran to my side very worriedly, and crouched down to lift my robe to look.

How dare I let the princess of a country deign to do such a thing, so I could only stop her in a hurry.

"Wechen is fine, Wechen is fine, please let Her Royal Highness the princess be relieved." I stood up and got out of the way, "Princess, please take a seat." ”

"You...... What are you polite to me? Cen Yuhe lowered his head shyly, "It's all ...... Morning and evening ......"

"Yuhe, why don't you come and sit down!" Seeing that Cen Yuhe was talking more and more unlikely, Cen Xi, who had been watching coldly, couldn't sit still, and immediately scolded in a low voice.

Cen Yuhe has always respected her as the imperial brother, and now that the imperial brother has spoken, she can't listen to it, so she can only sit back unwillingly.

Call!

I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, barely dragging my tired body to deal with this group of people that I couldn't avoid.

"That...... Have you eaten? ”

Be quiet.

Still quiet.

My heart trembled, and I couldn't help but put my eyes on Du Rong next to me for help.

Du Rong looked at me and smiled slightly.

"Everyone, if you don't have anything to say, I'll take Shen Xiang to rest next." Du Rong got up, arched his hand at everyone, and then took my arm to take me out.

"Shen Qingzhi!" Gu Yuancheng, who had been silent, finally couldn't help but stand up, he walked in front of me in a few steps, raised his hand and grabbed my other arm with all his might, "Where do you want to escape?" ”

“......”

Big brother, can't you just go against me once?

I glared at Gu Yuancheng with resentment, but I only saw the gloating look on his cold expression.

"If there's anything you'd like to ask, just ask." With a sigh, I decided to surrender.

Be quiet.

A large expanse of silence.

“......”

Seriously, if I'm just one of them right now, I'm going to roll up my sleeves and get ready to punch someone, except for the women, of course.

"It's all a coincidence today, you know, there are so many strange things in the world." I tried to express my innocence.
