Chapter 284: The Dust Fate Is Hard to Break
The former princess of Dongyang has become Xuanhui Daogu today.
In Li Su's arms, her body is thinner than before, I don't know how much sourness and grievances she has endured alone in the palace these days, at this moment, Li Su's heart is full of self-blame.
An untimely relationship, in this era of inequality, the price to pay is too great.
In the dark night, the two hugged each other silently, I don't know how long it took, time flowed quietly like the Jing River beside him, until the cold wind made Dongyang tremble slightly, Li Su came back to his senses, took off his outer robe, and wrapped her in the outer robe.
"Don't, you'll be cold......" Dongyang shirked and resisted.
"Don't move." Li Su couldn't help but say and wrapped her tightly.
Grabbing her thin shoulders, Li Su looked at her carefully.
The night was too dark, and only her eyebrows could be faintly seen when she was so close. I haven't seen him for more than a month, Dongyang has lost a lot of weight, his face is unhealthily pale, and even the blood on his lips is very light.
The princess of the past has changed into a hundred Taoist robes, the wide robe wraps her thin and weak body, and the high cloud temples on her head have also been pulled into a bun.
Li Su caressed her face and said, "A few days ago, you were seriously ill, and it is said that you vomited blood, but now you are better?" ”
Dongyang nodded: "There are palace maids decocting medicine in the palace every day, and my body is much better......"
Saying that, she suddenly reacted, and began to struggle in Li Su's arms again, and said hurriedly: "I...... I'm already a monk, we can't ...... like this."
Li Su had no choice but to hug her tightly again, not letting her struggle, and sighed: "Don't move, it's too precious to see you once." Let's not waste our time on nonsense like not leaving home, okay? ”
Dongyang was shy and hesitant, and said, "But...... I've worshiped the statue of Lao Jun, and I've said that I'm going to be a monk......"
Li Suqi said: "Whose house is it?" You ask Lao Jun, did he promise to accept you? A woman in her twenty-eighth year old is afraid that she can't even memorize the "Tao Te Ching". Where can I really break the edge of the dust? At the beginning, I expected that you might take this step, in order to avoid your father's endless marriage in the future, so I didn't stop you, and after a few days of recitation, I really regarded myself as a monk? ”
Dongyang was so angry by Li Su that he buried his head in Li Su's arms for a long time, and suddenly said sullenly: "...... I memorized it all. ”
"What?"
"Tao Te Ching...... I memorized it all. Dongyang's tone seemed to be a little unconvinced, and he hid in Li Su's arms and twisted restlessly a few times.
Li Su couldn't cry or laugh: "Okay." In the future, you can recite it to me slowly when you have time. ”
Dongyang nodded, buried his head in his arms, secretly wanted to laugh, wanted to show a happy appearance, and thought of his monastic status, how unethical it was to hug a man at this moment, he wanted to break free, but he was reluctant......
Came. The psychological struggle that goes around and around, Dongyang is so entangled that it can't work. In the end, he simply sighed faintly, and drilled his head into Li Su's chest like an ostrich.
As long as I am in his arms, I will be safe in this world, and there will be no troubles.
…………
There are no stars or moons in the night sky, and the two don't know the time. hugged each other quietly like this, the wind blowing from the river was still cold and biting, but Li Su didn't feel cold, and there seemed to be a flame burning in his chest.
After a long time, Dongyang's faint sigh interrupted the quiet and beautiful time at this moment.
"Before I left the palace. I heard the palace attendant say that you are married today? …… Was it a marriage from my father? ”
Li Su stiffened and said with a wry smile: "Yes, today is indeed my wedding day." ”
Dongyang hung his head, tears slowly dripped down, and said sadly: "You and I are in this life...... Sure enough, there is no fate between husband and wife. ”
Li Su's expression suddenly became cold, holding her face with both hands, and said in a deep voice: "You hear clearly, no one in this world can separate us, as long as we live, there will be infinite hope and turnaround in the future, so we have to live well, wait for an opportunity, or, wait for me to create an opportunity, just like the ghost fire I once concocted with my own hands, the fate of you and me is not destined, it is destined for you and me, as long as we don't give up, there will be a day when the clouds will see the day, understand?" ”
Dongyang couldn't stop crying, but he still nodded vigorously: "I believe you." ”
Hiding in his arms and sniffing, Dongyang said in a low voice: "Your lady...... Is she beautiful? ”
Li Su smiled bitterly: "After sending off the guests, I went out and arrived here, the new house has not yet entered, how do I know what she looks like, maybe she looks like with crooked eyes and slanted mouth, stammering speech, and a beautiful mole on her face......"
"A ...... on the face Beauty mole ......" Dongyang was stunned for a moment, and then began to beat his chest: "You don't accumulate virtue when you speak, how can you say this about your wife?" ”
After a pause, Dongyang said lonely: "Today's wedding, you leave your wife alone in the new house, this is not good, you ...... Go back and accompany her, she is innocent after all, you and I are already like this in this life, Li Su, cherish the people in front of you. ”
Li Su said bitterly: "You teach me how to have sex with a strange woman I have never met?" ”
Dongyang suddenly made a mistake, shook his head and said: "No, she is not a strange woman, she is the wife you are marrying, and I will spend my life with you in the future, a lover who shares blessings and misfortunes, Li Su, you shouldn't be here at this moment, go back, don't let her wait for you anymore, the taste of waiting for someone is very uncomfortable, when my mother waited for my father in the palace, I waited for a lifetime, until I closed my eyes after death, and I couldn't wait for him after all, Li Su, don't let there be another hard-working woman in the world, go back, when I beg you, okay?" ”
Seeing that Li Su had a calm face and didn't speak, Dongyang was anxious, broke away from his embrace, and said, "Go back quickly!" I'm also back to the Taoist temple, it's so cold......"
Li Su finally nodded reluctantly.
Dongyang smiled sadly, looked at him deeply, said goodbye to him, turned around and left.
Li Su pursed her lips, saw her back going farther and farther, sighed, and turned to leave, the two of them went in opposite directions, as if they were going to a life that no longer intersected.
After walking more than a dozen steps, Li Su suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at the darkness in front of him.
The footsteps on the opposite side also stopped, and Dongyang's urging came from afar: "Why don't you go?" ”
Li Su smiled: "Can you see me?" ”
“…… I can hear you, you stop. Dongyang's voice trembled in the distance.
Li Su waved at her, but she didn't know if she could see it: "Let's go." Be careful on the way back, don't fall. ”
"Got it, go back quickly."
There were footsteps at each end, and after a dozen steps, they stopped.
"Why did you stop again?" Dongyang's voice was a little crying.
"Let's go, I'm walking." Li Su's eyes also turned red.
"Go back. Don't miss the day. ”
"Well, I'm really going back." Li Su held back tears and laughed.
The footsteps sounded again, drifting away until they disappeared.
Leaving the river beach, Li Su stood quietly by Tian Mo for a while, estimating that Dongyang had almost gone back, he turned around and walked towards the river beach again.
The night was still dark, Li Su found a stone and sat down, looking at the river in a daze.
The night passed. The sky showed a hazy morning light, and the white of the fish belly in the east gradually reflected the familiar grass and trees.
Li Su rubbed his frozen stiff neck and sighed, but a sobbing sound came from behind him.
Li Su turned his head suddenly, and Dongyang stood not far behind him staring at him stupidly, still wearing a Taoist robe, standing in the cold wind and crying silently.
*************************************************************
When the first rays of sunlight shone on the earth, Li Su finally went home.
The house is still calm and undisturbed. The gate had already opened, and several servants were cleaning the open space outside. Seeing Li Su come back, everyone saluted one after another, and their eyes showed a little weirdness.
On the night of the master's wedding, he didn't return all night, which can be described as shocking.
Seeing that Li Su's face was not good-looking, the servants didn't dare to say more. After the prostration, they continued to perform their duties.
Steward Xue tiptoed to meet him, the housekeeper knew how to behave, and he didn't say a word about Li Su's bad behavior of throwing the bride away to keep the empty room alone, and shouted loudly to the maid to prepare water for Shaolangjun to wash, and whispered to Li Suyu to report the movements at home.
The lord was drunk last night. I haven't woken up yet, and the snoring in the front yard is loud, and I'm afraid I won't be able to get up even if it's three poles in the morning.
The red candle in the new room was lit all night, and the maid who had good things secretly glanced through the window in the middle of the night, and the young lady still sat motionless on the bed, as if she had sat all night.
The eyes of the subordinates are often the most snobbish, and the master's attitude towards the lady determines the attitude of the subordinates towards the wife, Steward Xue looked at Li Su's face carefully, and hesitated: "Shaolangjun, after all, the lady is married to your Ming media, whether you like it or not, the name is there after all, or ...... Or how about sending two maids to serve the young lady? ”
A little guilt flashed in Li Su's heart, and he nodded when he heard the words: "There was an urgent business in the Firearms Bureau last night that I had to wait for me to do, so I left home temporarily, it's not that I have a prejudice against the young lady, Uncle Xue turned around and told the people, the young lady will always be the young lady, don't chew your tongue behind your back, and don't have the slightest disrespect for the young lady, if you let me know that someone has neglected the young lady, I will directly break my leg and throw it out." ”
Steward Xue can be a man, and he has no doubts about Li Subian's nonsense, at least on the surface, he nodded hurriedly: "The old man has already instructed his subordinates, Shao Langjun and the young lady are the masters, we are servants, this point can still be distinguished, in the future, in addition to the old man and the young man, the old man will also report to the young lady, and dare not deceive." ”
Li Su nodded with satisfaction, walked towards the inner courtyard, and said as he walked: "The young lady hasn't slept all night, has she slept now?" ”
Steward Xue said with a smile: "The backyard maid said that the young lady has not been out of the new house, and she has not dared to trespass without telling them, but I really don't know if she has slept or not." ”
The two talked as they walked, and soon came to the arch in the backyard.
When I got here, it was inconvenient for Steward Xue to go in again, the big families paid attention to the rules, and the male subordinates other than the male owner would be beaten to death if they entered the backyard.
When Li Su raised his legs and was about to step into the arch, he suddenly saw a strange woman walking towards him, wearing a bright red dress, standing quietly in the arch and bowing to Li Suyingying.
"Concubine Xu, meet your husband."
