Volume 1: The Storm Chapter 15: The Red Dynasty and the Twilight
Qing Shi has been living in the palace for more than half a month, since that day in Yanhui Pavilion by chance to meet Xuan Ye, Qing Shi has a great interest in him, once thought that the king is like the drama in the eyes of the autumn water, eyebrows and spring mountains, but I don't know that it is the sword eyebrows and starry eyes, the chest hidden hills and ravines. After all, after all, the white queen can't pretend to be the emperor's eyes on the world.
When Qingyu is better, he often leads Qing Shi into the palace banquet together, instructing this is the palace concubine, how to distribute, all kinds of ways are just to pave the way to the palace for Qing Shi, life is like a play, I only hope that this play is not the big Zhou Hou and the small Zhou Hou, but the Empress and Nuying.
And it is a spring flower very prosperous, peach apricot and sticky stem begonia are developed one after another. Jiangxuexuan begonias and peach apricots compete for beauty, and begonias are charming. In the distance, the clothes are fragrant and the sideburns are shadowed, and the warbler is chirping. In the Qing Dynasty, it turned out that several palace concubines were laughing and frolicking.
Passing through the blooming begonia forest, I could vaguely hear the whispers of the Yiren in front of me in the early days, and I couldn't help but stop.
"Sister Shu, what's the news from the Chengqian Palace?"
Qing Shi was not startled, turned around and was about to leave, but the corners of his clothes caused the man to be surprised. Then he said, "Who's where!?" ”
"When the slave Tong Qing, he was ordered to serve the concubine in the Chengqian Palace. Passing through here, the unknown Niangniang is here, and he collided with Niangniang, asking Niangniang to forgive her sins. ”
Light cyan sprinkled satin collar than the armor, the beautiful crown, the flag bun is high, the red gold phoenix tail tassel is embellished, the glow is bright, the light sweep of the moth eyebrows is thin powder, bright and glamorous. Persistently fanning the ink fan and shaking it gently. Qing Shi knew that she was Concubine Wen who was in the limelight at that banquet. followed by a woman in light clothes, looking at the outfit, it should also be a palace concubine.
"It was the concubine's mother's sister." Concubine Wen pretended to be shocked, leaned over and pinched Qing Shi's jaw, and a smile tugged at the corner of her mouth: "It's a pity that your sister took great pains to send you into the palace, and her appearance was so mediocre." ”
Qing Shi did not break free, and his smile became brighter and brighter: "Since ancient times, the harem has been inhabited by people of virtue and ability, and when can people get good things?" ”
Concubine Wen let go of her hand and said coldly: "Gege is not small, the Tong family has an excellent family education, and he has raised such a daughter." ”
The woman behind Concubine Wen continued: "Xu is the Tong family has never seen the world, and he doesn't know how to speak. With that, she and Concubine Wen looked at each other and smiled.
Qing Shi forced a smile and said: "The slave was ordered to enter the palace, and he was grateful for the grace of the saint." ”
When the Qing Dynasty deliberately bit the word "Fengzhi", Concubine Wen was extremely displeased and said: "I still put up a score in front of the palace, even your sister doesn't dare to contradict the palace." I don't look at what I am. ”
Concubine Wen snorted coldly, and the palace people behind her were about to step forward to catch Qing Shi, and the slight footsteps entered her ears, Concubine Wen couldn't help but hesitate, and when she saw people, she couldn't help but smile and said: "It turns out that Sister Rong Concubine is also here." ”
Rong Concubine's clothes are clear, between the pitches, the dust is gone, and the red sleeves of Qing'e are also tempting. I saw her say: "I thought that Concubine Wen was virtuous, how could I be angry with a little girl?" ”
The few people in the distance should have seen Concubine Wen Rong, and they all came here to say goodbye. Concubine Wen frowned slightly, and without reducing her smile, she called those palace concubines to go with her to enjoy the flowers, and they left with Concubine Wen with a smile. Before leaving, Concubine Wen glanced at Qing Shi with a smile and said, "What Sister Rong said is that anyway, the coming day will be long, and this palace will not care about you today." ”
Qing Shi saw that Concubine Rong stayed, so he had the courage to bow to her: "Thank you Concubine Rong just now." ”
"Today, you and I meet fate. You might as well accompany the palace to go on a trip. ”
Although Qing Shi was silent, he followed her steps, all the way through the begonia forest, all the way to the flower stream, and the fragrance greeted. Eventually, her voice shattered the silence of the moment.
"Mother...... why do you want to help the minions?"
Concubine Rong's slightly frowning brows eased at this time, and she said with a smile: "It's Concubine Wen who doesn't care about you, what does it have to do with this palace?" If you want to thank you, you might as well go to Concubine Xie Wen. ”
Qing Shi was slightly stunned, and he smiled again, and raised his eyes slightly with her words, and his eyes flowed: "The slave is vulgar and ignorant, I am afraid that I will displease Concubine Wen again." ”
She smiled as before, and glanced at it: "Look at the begonia peaches and apricots in this Jiangxue Xuan, as soon as Mengxia passes, a new batch of flowers blooms is when they wither." ”
Others only feel that these words are sighing and thanking, and the implication is nothing more than this year's general election. Huaqing habitual bathing, spring wind and dew, are not what the Qing Dynasty wants. But how can the emperor's grace and family grace be negative?
A lament, it seems to be pity for the flowers, but also for himself. Qing Shi replied slowly: "The flower committee is broken, scattered into mud, there is still the same fragrance, Chen Hou's main words are good, the flowers do not bloom for a long time, and they fall red and return to the silence." ”
There was a cool breeze blowing in the distance, and the branches of begonias were swaying between the slightest coldness, and Concubine Rong climbed a begonia with her hands, and her fingertips were quietly curled up, and the flower was already in her hands. The flickering emotions in his eyes were already obvious.
Su Zizhan also has poems: the east wind curls up and the light is sublime, and the fragrant mist is empty and the moon is in the corridor. I was afraid that I would fall asleep in the middle of the night, so I burned a high candle to shine red makeup. That's it, I don't even dare to love, I just want to like it. ”
The emotions in her eyes were pressed to the bottom, and the begonia in her hand fell to the ground and scattered into petals. He looked down and looked at it again, and after a moment, he turned his head sideways and asked, "The noble concubine Niangniang Xuange's entry into the palace must not be just a servant?" ”
I don't know where the sound outside the strings is clear, and the frost and new snow are suddenly added to the face, but I still don't move.
"How dare a slave speculate on the meaning of the concubine."
Concubine Rong smiled a little sadly when she looked at the Qing Dynasty, and then said: "Oranges are born in Huainan for oranges, and Huaibei is oranges." This palace thinks about Gegege, and it must be a person with a delicate heart. In the future, he will participate in the general election and be able to step into the village. ”
Wealth and glory, a worry-free life, and then step into the middle of the village, but it is just a fantasy, as a concubine, Qing Shi has never had luxury since childhood, these, after all, are not hers. Qing Shi stroked the petals stained on the shoulders of his clothes and replied: "Thank you Niangniang for your good words, but the servants dare not ask for luxury, but they only want to be peaceful and happy all their lives." ”
"I see that Gege is very smart, so I might as well advise you. The affairs of the deep palace are as secretive as deep, and you must not shoot your head. ”
Qing Shi was shocked in his heart, and raised his eyes to see that she said so indifferently, Fang Jue felt the danger of the palace. Qing Shi seemed to understand whether he understood or not, nodded and said: "How fortunate the slave is, to be able to get the mother's mention, the slave is grateful." ”
The sundial is slightly oblique, shining on the palace, the nine-foot red wall, the yellow tiles can be counted, but what is invisible is the human heart. Qing Shi looked sideways, couldn't see the head of the begonia, and was about to turn around to say goodbye to Concubine Rong, but she said first: "The hour is not early, Gege will go back first, otherwise the concubine should be worried." It is a great blessing for this palace to be able to meet Gege today. ”
So Qing Shi asked: "The slave dared to ask, I don't know where the mother lives?" The slave will come to the door to thank Niangniang in the future. ”
"Yanxi Palace."
At the end, Concubine Rong said leisurely: "If we can meet again, I hope that Gege can still be as today as he is, and he will not change his original intention." ”
She walked towards the depths of the Imperial Garden, and Qing Shi bowed to her before jumping out of the Xue Xuan.
