Chapter 331: Envy
When Duan Xue hated receiving Mu Zhen's letter, the sun was in the west, and the letter was sent in by a eunuch on an errand in the gatehouse of the palace. Mu Zhen wanted to ask her to meet.
In the past two years, Duan Xue has never moved around with Mu Mansion, and he has not even changed his surname back. Hearing that her cousin had made an appointment, Duan Xue felt very sudden; She didn't really want to face the people of the Mu family, but she felt that something might happen to Mu Zhen.
In the past, the person who hated the Mu family the most was Duan Yang's family, and Duan Xue hated that the Mu family was their enemy, and she had never had a good feeling. But for some reason, when she learned that she was also a member of the Mu family, even if she didn't usually have any contact, Duan Xue Hate gradually developed a little closeness to the people of the Mu family...... Probably because she thinks that after Mu Fu knows her life experience, she will not hurt her family?
So Duan Xue hated to the Han princess Guo Wei, and went out of the palace.
The weather was clear with a few white clouds floating in the clear sky. The smell of flowers wafts in the air, and weeping willows waft in the wind.
Duan Xue hated still tied her hair and wore a round-necked green robe, and walked to the south city gate not far from the Han Palace. She found Mu Zhen under a willow tree next to the canal.
Mu Zhen still dresses up as a man when she goes out, but the eighteenth year of the female college has changed, I haven't seen her for a few years, Mu Zhen's figure is even more unconcealed by a man's outfit, and it can be seen at a glance that she is a handsome young woman, the chest of the robe is very full, the waist is becoming more and more flexible, and the hip contour is also very round. Xu has grown up, and his beautiful peach heart face is more delicate than that of a few years ago, and his skin is smoother and more delicate.
The little girl and sister of the Yi tribe next to Mu Zhen still followed Mu Zhen, dressed in colorful flowers. Duan Xue hated to find Mu Zhen just now, and was first attracted by Ah Mei's bright clothes.
"Cousin!" Mu Zhen also found Duan Xue Hate and waved her hand here.
Duan Xue hated and approached, clasped his fists and said, "I received Miss Mu's letter, so I rushed to the south city gate. Miss Mu has something to tell you? ”
She once almost hurt Mu Zhen's life, and she felt guilty and concerned when she met. But Duan Xue's face was very cold, she was not a person who was used to showing her heart.
Mu Zhen was different, Duan Xue clearly observed that her eyes seemed to have cried, but Mu Zhen still had a beautiful smile, and her greeting tone was also very affectionate and generous.
However, Mu Zhen seemed to be very hesitant, and did not respond for a while, before she raised her head and smiled: "Cousin, not far from the city is Dianchi Lake, I haven't been there for a long time, let's go to the water's edge." ”
Duan Xue hated nodded.
The group of three went out of the city gate. There is a war going on in Annan, but Yunnan has been quiet recently, and even the officers and soldiers guarding the gate are a little listless. The three little ladies were empty-handed, and no one paid attention to them when they went out of the city, and when it was peaceful, these officers and soldiers only thought about collecting taxes on goods.
When I came to the shore of Dianchi Lake, a cool breeze blew on the vast water, which made people barely have a feeling of cold spring.
The situation inside and outside the city of Yunnan has hardly changed in a few years, the roads are still the same, and the scenery is still the same. Duan Xue hated to remember that near the city gate by the lake, there used to be a grass shed for guarding fish, but now it seems that there is no more.
Back then, Mu Zhen and Geng Hao had an argument near the grass hut, and Duan Xue hated to see them.
At this moment, Duan Xue Hate suddenly noticed that there were tears on Mu Zhen's face. Mu Zhen quietly avoided her face and took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears. Duan Xue couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Mu Zhen shook her head, hurriedly wiped it a few times, and showed a hint of a smile, "It's nothing, I shouldn't have come out to see the old scene recently, it's easy to remind people of a lot of things......" she said, her eyes that had just dried were soaked with tears again.
Duan Xue didn't know what she was sad about, or what she remembered, but she didn't ask. If it weren't for some purpose, she didn't like to ask about other people's affairs.
However, Mu Zhen's contradictory performance makes the bright mountains and rivers blooming in spring seem to be shrouded in a little sadness of memories.
Duan Xue hated Mu Zhen's face and felt that her little face with a smile in her tears was really distressing. But Duan Xue just said "um".
At this time, Mu Zhen let out a long breath, wiped her eyes again, and her expression became serious: "I heard my father say that in the past few days, there has been a team of guards in the Han Palace, and he wants to escort someone to Annan. Is my cousin going? ”
Duan Xue hated standing in place, shook his head and said, "In the letter that King Han brought back, he didn't ask me to go. ”
"Oh!" Mu Zhen replied.
There was a long silence.
Duan Xue hated for a moment, and finally spoke: "Miss Mu, don't you have something important to tell King Han?" You can write a letter and give it to me within two days today and tomorrow, and I will bring it to the military guards for you and take it to Annan. ”
Mu Zhen said: "Forget it, why should I tell him, and what is the reason?" But it only adds to his annoyance. It's not good if someone else knows about it. ”
Although Duan Xue didn't know what Mu Zhen was going to say, seeing that she cried more than once, and hesitated for so long when she wanted to speak, she only felt that it was definitely not a trivial matter. Duan Xue hated and said quietly: "The escort person this time is more important, it would be better if I accompanied him." ”
Mu Zhen listened, and suddenly said, "I may be going to marry to Zhao Wangfu!" Holy meaning. ”
Her eyes suddenly flickered a little, and she said: "King Han is kind to me, and not many people know about this matter now, I want to tell him first......"
"I don't need Miss Mu's explanation." Duan Xue's face was still unshocked, and said, "Leave this matter to me, Miss Mu don't worry." The gates were closed early, and we went into the city. Miss Mu should go home early and don't worry about the family. ”
Mu Zhen nodded.
The two of them walked side by side towards the main road, and at this moment, Mu Zhen suddenly said without a clue: "Actually...... I envy my cousin in my heart. ”
"Envy me?" Duan Xue was stunned for a moment.
Then there was silence. Walking back to the gate of the mansion, there was a long road, but Duan Xue Hate never figured out where he could make the eldest daughter of Xiping Marquis envious.
……
In February, the Jingshi is also full of spring, winter goes to spring, and everything seems to be recovering. The magnificent palaces, pavilions, stone bridges and water pavilions of Jingshi, embellished with new green branches and flowers, are like a fairyland on earth.
On the shore of the pool in the Spring and Hall of the Imperial City, Zhu Zhanji was playing in the mud there, and he was bumped into by his father Zhu Gaochi again, and he had to be reprimanded.
The edge of the pool was made of bricks and stones, but in one place the stones fell down, revealing the dirt. Every time Zhu Zhanji picks out the mud there, he makes it into all kinds of humans and animals, which is his favorite thing to play in addition to reading and writing recently.
Zhu Gaochi said angrily: "Your brother has been sick for a few days, and I don't see you to take a look." Wash your hands and follow me! ”
A eunuch said, "The slave maid will go and fetch hot water immediately." ”
Zhu Gaochi said: "Isn't the wet mud cold?" Just wash by the pool, don't delay the hour. ”
Jungi looked reluctant, but he still didn't dare to disobey his father's orders. Zhu Gaochi saw it in his eyes, and only felt that these two children were really not as close as his brothers back then......
His father became the emperor, and now Zhu Gaochi feels that the three brothers are getting worse and worse; But their relationship was still very good when they were children, like Zhan Ji and Zhan Kai now, they haven't been close since they were young!
Sometimes Zhu Gaochi quietly thought in his heart, the second brother is now in his heart, maybe he wishes he died early! If he dies, the second brother may become the prince!
Although the father also likes the kid Zhanji, the second brother's credit is too great now. Yesterday, the good news had been reported to the Beijing Division, and the second brother and Zhang Fu had destroyed a country, and it only took more than half a year! The second brother is now very filial and obedient, and his father praised him more than once.
Zhu Gaochi was thinking about his thoughts, and took Zhan Ji to Guo Yan.
Guo Yan's face was very haggard, and she probably hadn't slept well since Zhan Kai was sick and hot. Seeing the salute, Zhu Gaochi immediately reached out and touched Zhan Kai's small forehead, and after a while, he turned his head and said, "It doesn't seem to be so hot." ”
Guo Yan said weakly: "After drinking the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor, Kai'er's body is indeed not hot, and the concubine's body is a lot more relieved." But now he is always twitching and trembling, and the imperial doctor can't see it well. ”
Zhu Gaochi looked at it carefully for a while, and sure enough, it was as Guo Yan said.
Guo Yan said again: "My father brought me here, and I know a monk who is very famous; The monk soaked wine with snake gall bladder, saying that it could cure Zhan Yuan's disease. The concubine wanted her father to bring some in and try it. ”
Zhu Gaochi frowned and said, "Fangshi? ”
Guo Yan said kindly: "Kai'er is the grandson of my father, and there will be no problems with medicinal materials; The concubine also asked someone to ask the imperial doctor today, and the imperial doctor also said that some snake gall bladders can really cure convulsions in children, but the medicinal materials are scarce and difficult to find. My father was not easily deceived. The concubine told her father to send the medicine and wine to Wenhuamen tomorrow, and asked the prince to get it back for Kai'er, and it was best not to let others take over. ”
When Zhu Gaochi heard the second half of the sentence, he felt uncomfortable, but he didn't say anything, only said: "I'm going to study in Wenhua Hall early tomorrow morning, just ask him to send it over." ”
He couldn't help but say again, "You have a very bad complexion, you still have to sleep a little more at night and pay attention to your body." There are so many slaves watching, don't worry too much. ”
Guo Yan was a little moved when she heard this, and hurriedly bowed her knees to thank Zhu Gaochi.
Women just love to listen to good words, Zhu Gaochi remembered the little palace maid he had pampered last time, and he only said a few sweet words, and the little palace maid was happy. Zhu Gaochi also understood that his status as a prince was the reason for their respect, but the little palace maid really treated him with heart.
But soon Zhu Gaochi remembered the cold and terrifying corpse hanging on the beam! His face changed suddenly.
At this time, Zhanji's voice said, "I hope my brother will get better soon." ”
Guo Yan was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and said with a smile: "Zhan Ji is really sensible. ”
Zhu Gaochi also breathed a sigh of relief, touched Zhanji's head, and said, "I'll go first, and when I'll be better, you can send someone to tell me earlier." ”
Guo Yan said: "The concubine sent the prince." ”
