Chapter 44 The Tao is different, not the same
If Wen Xiuyuan really wants to thank me, she will definitely not kneel down as soon as she sees me, after all, my kindness to her is not something that can be repaid simply by kneeling.
Liu Jianxue hated Wen Xiu Mandarin Duck very much, if it weren't for Wen Xiu Mandarin Duck, I wouldn't have to take risks one after another, and now I have become a thorn in the side of the queen and Concubine Shu.
"Okay, I've been out for a long time, if the emperor goes up, it's not good if I can't find anyone anywhere, Huaixing, you talk to Sister Wen, I'll leave first." Saying that, Liu Jianxue gave me a look, and I immediately understood that Liu Jianxue wanted to avoid Wen Xiuyuan.
I didn't stop it, I walked to the door of the side hall and sent Liu Jianxue away, and then I turned around and went back to the side hall to greet Wen Xiu Yuan, who had just come over.
When I came back, I saw that the embroidered mandarin duck had already begun to feast, although a few plates of food were nothing, but I was very unaccustomed to her appearance of treating herself as an outsider.
"Sister Wen is afraid that she hasn't had lunch yet, so I'll let Qiushui pass the meal, if my sister doesn't dislike it, she will eat at my place and then leave." As I said this, I quickly put away all the food on the table.
When Wen Xiuyuan saw me like this, she thought I was angry, and knelt in front of me again: "Is it that my sister did something wrong to make my sister angry, my sister said bluntly, my sister must correct it." ”
It's just a few words, Wen Xiuyuan shaped me into an unkind, tricky and mean look, and immediately I looked at Wen Xiuyuan's eyes became a lot colder, but I still called Qiushui: "Qiushui, Xiao Zhu Wen doesn't seem to have lunch, so you go and pass two simple dishes, let Xiao Master Wen eat and leave." ”
Qiushui took the order, and I looked at Wen Xiuyuan, who was sitting dignified and quiet at this time, but her eyes were still staring at the food box I had just put away.
"Is the injury on Sister Wen's face healed? If the wound has not healed, how can it come out to blow the wind? "I was going to ask Wen Xiuyuan directly about the purpose of coming over, but I didn't want to say it anymore.
Wen Xiuyuan looked at me hesitantly, as if she wanted to say something to me, so I asked, "Sister Wen, what do you want to say to me?" ”
Wen Xiuyuan still didn't say it directly, she was silent for a while, and just when I was about to ask again, she finally opened her mouth: "Sister, have you ever thought about returning to the queen?" ”
I was stunned when I heard this, although I had expected in advance that Wen Xiuyuan would come because of this incident, but when I heard her say it with my own ears, I couldn't help but be a little shocked.
Is this girl in front of me now still the girl who is soft and weak, crying and crying because of a little thing?
The current Wen Xiuyuan makes me feel a little strange, and it also makes me feel cold, and even my little sympathy for her disappeared in an instant.
"The queen is the master of the harem, in charge of many matters in the harem, of course, those of us who are concubines must obey the words of the queen." I pretended not to understand Wen Xiuyuan's words at all.
Wen Xiuyuan did not give up: "My sister is outstanding, and she is more talented, of course she is not afraid of the queen and Concubine Shu, but my sister is different." ”
Although Wen Xiuyuan's words are pitiful, I don't see any sympathetic expression on her face, and her expression makes me feel that her ambition is not just as simple as becoming the emperor's favorite concubine.
"If my sister has anything to say, it's boring to go around in circles with me!"
It seemed that because of the faint anger on my face, Wen Xiuyuan's whole body began to tremble uncontrollably, and there were tears in her eyes.
"My sister doesn't have to be like this, my sister can come to me today, it is to take my sister seriously, my sister can promise, no matter what my sister says today, my sister will definitely not say it."
It seems that because of my guarantee, Wen Xiuyuan finally let go: "Since my sister said so, then my sister will not hide it, Chuan Bei next to the queen came to find her sister today, and she said to her sister that if her sister can be used by the queen and deal with Concubine Shu together, her sister's future will be guaranteed in the future." ”
Hearing Wen Xiuyuan's words, I couldn't help but start to pity the girl in front of me, since she entered the palace, she has never been blessed by the emperor, and Concubine Shu's punishment of her made her life in the harem even more difficult, which I can understand.
But what I can't understand is why she came to me to say this kind of thing: "What is the purpose of my sister telling me this?" ”
Wen Xiuyuan really didn't continue to hide it, and told me all the words in her heart: "I know that my sister is the niece of Concubine Shu, but I can also see that these days with my sister, Concubine Shu doesn't care about my sister, or it can be said that Concubine Shu only cares about the emperor's favor, in this case, why doesn't my sister go with me to help the queen?" ”
I looked at her suspiciously, a little puzzled, why did I talk about it as I spoke: "My sister said this to me, my sister doesn't understand what my sister means, everyone knows that I and Concubine Shu are aunts and nephews, if I openly take refuge in the queen's mother, does my sister think Concubine Shu will tolerate me?" ”
Wen Xiuyuan's face suddenly changed color, and I guess she had forgotten this relationship between me and Concubine Shu.
"Sister really doesn't want to share the queen's worries?" Wen Xiuyuan looked at me and asked this question, which was already answered in both me and hers.
"What my sister said, as long as we stay in the harem in peace, and don't get into trouble and be jealous, we're helping the queen mother, isn't it?" After speaking, I looked at Wen Xiuyuan, who had a cold face because of my words.
"I know that my sister may not like my sister's words, but my sister must know that loyalty is good for deeds, if my sister insists on being with the queen, my sister will not stop her, but my sister doesn't have to worry about my sister's affairs." I sat down at the table and took a sip of tea.
"Sister, today I will tell my sister clearly, my sister wants to be favored, and if she wants to be like Concubine Shu, she will become the emperor's favorite woman!" Wen Xiuyuan's face was a little crazy, which made me feel a little terrifying.
"Since my sister has made up her mind, my sister can't say anything, so I can only wish my sister what she wants here!" After I finished speaking, I stopped paying attention to Wen Xiuyuan, let alone looking at her again.
The expression on Wen Xiuyuan's face returned to her previous innocence, and when she saw that I ignored her, she walked to the door of the side hall angrily, and when she was about to open the curtain and go out, I suddenly said a word, which made her stunned for a long time and couldn't come back to her senses.
"Since my sister wants to become the emperor's favorite concubine, then my sister and I are different from each other, I don't expect my sister to fly to promote me, but please also remember my sister, I can save my sister's face, and there is a way to destroy everything my sister wants, so my sister must not fight Sister Liu's idea, she is a person who has no quarrel with the world."
For a long time, Wen Xiuyuan stood at the door of the side hall without saying a word, and when I was about to call Qiushui to send off guests, Wen Xiuyuan suddenly spoke: "Sister's words, my sister wrote it down." ”
Immediately, she lifted the curtain and walked out of the side hall, and I looked at the empty door of the side hall, and suddenly felt as if something had been lost.
Then I walked to the inner room, lying on the bed decadently, thinking about everything that had happened since entering the palace, and suddenly felt that life was like a play, and I had already had a lot of supporting roles in this scene, and Wen Xiuyuan was one of them.
Suddenly I remembered again, what did I help Wen Xiuyuan in the first place?
After thinking about it for a long time, I didn't think of the real answer, maybe it was because Wen Xiuyuan, who was troubled at that time, was the same as me before, no one loved her, I saw myself in her, and I didn't want the tragedy on Wen Xiuyuan's body to repeat it.
But after all, I'm not the savior, and Wen Xiuyuan is not who I used to be, so the result is like this, and I still can't accept it.
Not long after Wen Xiuyuan left, Qiushui and Bailu came back from the imperial dining room, carrying food boxes in their hands.
"Little Master, we got the food box back, but where did Little Master Wen go?" Presumably, the two of them didn't see Wen Xiuyuan and the little girl next to her in the yard, so they asked me this question.
"The meal that came to you two is divided, Master Wen is gone, and he may not come in the future." Bailu immediately became confused when he heard my words, but Qiushui understood what I said.
She handed the food box in her hand to Bailu, gave Bailu a look to Bailu to leave, and after Bailu left, she walked to my side.
"Little Master, did Little Master Wen really do that?" Qiushui looked at me, and I nodded: "Some people, some things, are not able to develop according to my plan, and sometimes we have to learn to accept this status quo!" ”
Qiushui saw the sadness on my face, and asked me with some hesitation: "Little master, did you think of yourself?" Qiushui didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but I could guess what Qiushui was going to say, so I nodded and didn't say anything.
"After all, it's not the same way, and it's good to only hope that when you meet in the future, you won't become an enemy." After saying that, I closed my eyes, no longer paid attention to Qiushui, and didn't even want to care about anything, just wanted to sleep like this without waking up, and slept until it was dark.
Seeing that I closed my eyes, Qiushui turned and walked out of the inner room, and the moment she left, I seemed to hear a sigh of life.
There were so many things in that sigh that I couldn't understand and I didn't want to understand.
At night, it was snowing outside, and although my eyes were always closed, I still didn't feel the slightest sleep.
Getting up and putting on a cloak, I walked to the front of the embroidery frame and stretched out my hand to caress the embroidery on the embroidery frame: "Second brother, what do you think I should do?" ”
No one could give me an answer, and I didn't know what the answer was, but for a long time, I looked at the things on the embroidery stand and became distracted, and finally lay down on the embroidery frame, and my consciousness fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up, I was already in bed, if I hadn't seen the vermilion on the top of the bed, I would have thought that I was still in a small room in the backyard of the Lin Mansion, and I was still the unjustified lady of the Lin Mansion, doing even harder work than the people in the family.
Qiushui walked in from outside, and I hurriedly asked her, "How did I get to bed?" ”
Qiushui walked to my side with a worried face: "Little master, what else do you say, if the emperor hadn't come, the little master would have slept on his stomach on the embroidery frame for a night, I'm afraid he would catch a cold!" ”
I looked at Qiushui suspiciously, trying to determine whether what she said was true from Qiushui's expression, Qiushui seemed to see through my thoughts, and immediately answered the question in my heart: "The emperor did come last night, but the emperor just hugged the little lord on the bed, and someone from Concubine Shu's side came, saying that Concubine Shu vomited more than once." ”
When I heard the word vomit, I instantly felt refreshed.
Could it be that Concubine Shu finally has it?
