Chapter 30: The Storm Will Rise (2)
Jiang Wan looked at Xia Yahan indifferently, she didn't object to Xia Yahan's admiration for Lu Zhixing, she didn't care about this, Lu Zhixing was related to her, but it was just related to the original owner.
"I don't have the slightest childlike affection for Your Majesty now, and I once truly regarded him as the love of my life, but nothing in this world is eternal, and I just want to live it well."
Jiang Wan sighed, "Yahan, I know that you love Your Majesty, and I have no intention of opposing you, but I just hope that you will not be hurt by this." ”
Xia Yahan looked at Jiang Wan, she had an illusion, she always felt that Jiang Wan seemed to have experienced many things, many things that should not have been experienced by her.
However, Xia Yahan was also very moved to hear Jiang Wan's words with her heart to herself, she knew that Jiang Wan would not deceive herself. She was a little glad that Jiang Wan no longer loved the landing trip, but she was a little sad because of it.
"Jiang Wan, I know that the abolition of the queen has hit you hard, and I don't know how to comfort you, but you are the most empathetic person I have ever met."
Jiang Wan didn't care about this, it was the original owner who hit the original owner, not himself. She knew that Xia Yahan liked Lu Zhixing, and she also wanted to promote them, so that Lu Zhixing always wanted to target herself.
Jiang Wan sent Xia Yahan back to her courtyard, and said before leaving, "You have to believe in yourself and work hard to show your own shining points, Your Majesty will be able to see you one day, don't be discouraged." ”
Xia Yahan waved her hand to Jiang Wan who was leaving, what Jiang Wan said today, she would keep in her heart, and she also hoped that she would be able to stand by Lu Zhixing's side one day.
"Hi'er, why do you say they all like Your Majesty so much?"
Jiang Wan didn't understand, if they were just greedy for the power and status brought by grace, then she could still understand, but she was puzzled by Xia Yahan, who loved Lu Zhixing like her. Lu Zhixing can see his face in her eyes, his temper is so strange that he is almost dead, and he is still a proper scumbag.
Ping'er didn't know why Jiang Wan asked this, but she still expressed her opinion.
"I heard that when Your Majesty was still a prince, the women who admired Your Majesty accounted for almost half of the capital."
"Still a heartthrob." Jiang Wan thought to herself.
"Your Majesty is beautiful in appearance, and has excellent intelligence in governing the country, he is a rare Ming Jun, and it is no wonder that many beauties in the harem are devoted to Your Majesty."
"To put it bluntly, it still depends on the face, where do those women care if Lu Zhixing is brilliant and has a good way of governing the country." Jiang Wan rolled his eyes in his heart, sure enough, no matter where he was or what era, he always looked at his face.
At this time, Lu Zhixing, who was bathing in the Hot Spring Palace, suddenly sneezed, and he was a little puzzled, how could he still get cold in the Hot Spring Palace?
After Ping'er and Jiang Wan returned to Yunxuan together, she was a little worried, she listened to Jiang Wan's words, and felt that Jiang Wan was really heartbroken by Lu Zhixing. As Jiang Wan's personal maidservant, she is also sad for Jiang Wan, but she can see that Jiang Wan is still full of love for life, and she is also happy because of it.
"Master, no matter what choice you make, Ping'er will always follow you."
Ping'er looked at Jiang Wan's back in front of her and thought secretly in her heart.
During the Qingming Festival, it rained a lot, Jiang Wan looked at the continuous drizzle outside the house and the sky intertwined with light and dark, "It's been so long since I first arrived here." ”
Ping'er pushed open the door and walked in, standing at the door shaking the rain on the umbrella. She walked behind Jiang Wan and heard Jiang Wan's exclamation, she thought that Jiang Wan was lamenting the days when she came out of the cold palace.
"Master, it's a blessing that you can come out of the cold palace."
"Hmm." Jiang Wan replied casually, what she sighed was actually the time when her plane crashed and crossed here, when the cold winter was at the beginning of the winter and now the peach blossoms in the mountain temple should be outdated.
I don't know why the flowering period in the palace is longer than she expected, but it is still fragrant and fragrant when it is almost clear. She looked at the moon flowers folded in the vase, and she also expected that there would be a moon in the palace.
"It's really rare that there will be moon flowers in the palace."
"Few people will call it Yuejihua, and everyone in the palace calls it Dou Xuehong, maybe it looks more high-end."
Xia Yahan learned a lot of modern words from Jiang Wan, and she felt that what Jiang Wan said was very interesting. Jiang Wan stretched out his hand to caress the pink dewy petals, but heard a familiar male voice.
"Beware of thorns."
Jiang Wan's body stiffened for a moment after hearing who it was, and then he took his hand back. Xia Yahan and Jiang Wan looked at the man, and it was indeed Lu Zhixing. Lu Zhixing got the news before, saying that Jiang Wan was in the Imperial Garden, so he wanted to come over and have a look.
"The slave has seen Your Majesty."
Xia Yahan was obviously much happier when she saw Lu Zhixing, she was still shy, but this time she had the courage to look at him. Jiang Wan is as indifferent and resistant as ever, isn't it a bit too many times to meet Lu Zhixing recently.
Lu Zhixing saw that Jiang Wan had no reaction to his appearance, and there were some indescribable emotions in his heart, but he was quickly suppressed by him.
"Dou Xuehong has thorns, if Xin Guannu wants to fold flowers, be careful."
"Thank you Your Majesty for reminding me, the slave knows."
Jiang Wan didn't think about breaking flowers at first, but listening to the meaning of Lu Zhixing's words, it shouldn't be okay to fold it herself, so Jiang Wan thought that when Lu Zhi walked, she must fold a few branches back and insert them in the vase.
Xia Yahan saw that Lu Zhixing's attention was on Jiang Wan's body, and was silent for a while, ready to take the initiative to talk to Lu Zhixing.
"Why did Your Majesty come to the Imperial Garden today?"
"I'm a little tired of reviewing and handling official business, and it just so happens that the weather is good today, so I want to come to the Imperial Garden to take a look, if I don't come again, I'm afraid I'm going to miss the fragrance of this garden."
"Your Majesty should pay attention to the combination of work and rest, don't hurt your body."
"Being so intimate makes me feel very relieved."
"It's just the duty of a slave, not enough for Your Majesty."
Xia Yahan and Lu Zhixing had a conversation, and they were very happy in their hearts, and they were confident according to what Jiang Wan had said, and they could really make His Majesty notice him.
Jiang Wan was very relieved to see that Xia Yahan was not cowardly in front of Lu Zhixing. Lu Zhixing saw that Jiang Wan's attention was still not on him, and he was inexplicably disappointed in his heart.
Lu Zhixing chatted a few more words and left, Xia Yahan kept watching Lu Zhixing's back disappear, Jiang Wan stretched out his hand to fold the flowers, not caring at all.
"Jiang Wan, I always feel that His Majesty's eyes are always on you, and I felt it last time I played chess."
Xia Yahan hesitated for a while, but still told Jiang Wan his intuition.
Jiang Wan was playing with the few moon flowers he had folded off, and he didn't hear what Xia Yahan said.
"Yahan, what did you say, I didn't pay attention to it just now."
"I think Your Majesty still has you in his heart, and his eyes are always on you."
"It must be your delusion, if Your Majesty really has me in your heart, how can you target me three or four times, if Your Majesty has me in your heart, how can you ignore my original defense and insist on abolishing my throne for the sake of Concubine Lin Guifei, and put me in a cold palace that is no different from the death penalty."
Jiang Wan didn't believe Xia Yahan's intuition, and felt that Xia Yahan attached too much importance to Lu Zhixing's suspicions. Thinking that she had been stared at by Lu Zhixing, her goosebumps were about to rise.
Jiang Wan comforted Xia Yahan, "I have always regarded you as one of the few lights in the palace, because your character is rare, if Your Majesty values you one day, it must be because of your kind and simple character." ”
"Don't be blinded and lost in your heart by love."
Jiang Wan didn't want Xia Yahan to become like the intriguing concubines in the harem, she wanted to protect Xia Yahan's rare childlike innocence and kindness.
Xia Yahan nodded, she also hoped that she was more careful.
"yes, I see."
"Hire'er, why did you say that the rain has not stopped, it has been raining for two days."
Jiang Wan felt a little cold, closed the window and walked to the bed, took the brazier and lit it. The brazier lit a flame, and the room gradually warmed up. She closed the door and turned on all the lights in the room, and the room was overcast and dim.
"This is also the first rain of the year, and the spring rain is as expensive as oil, and this year's crops must be good."
"Yes, but this gloomy weather makes it difficult for people to cheer up, and they always feel lazy."
Jiang Wan looked at Yueji, who was a little wilted in the vase, "Let's change the water in this vase for the last time, it looks like it can be opened for two more days." ”
"It's the master, but this flower can be regarded as tenacious if it can be left for so long."
Ping'er pushed open the window and took out another vase to catch the rain under the eaves, and the wind blew in, and the flames in the brazier shook a few times. Jiang Wan suddenly felt an inexplicable panic in her heart, and she wondered where this uneasy feeling came from.
"Maybe it's because of this weather, I'm too careful, how can I be the same as Yahan."
As the dampness of spring came to an end, a shocking event took place in the palace. The protagonist of this major event is the concubine of Luo Yunxuan's lord.
Several palace members patrolled the palace and found something unusual in a pond. When they got closer, they found the body of a woman floating on the water.
"Hurry up and call someone!"
It didn't take long for the pond to be filled with people, and several palace people went down to salvage the woman's corpse ashore. I thought that it was a little-known palace maid who died, but who knew that the people on the scene recognized that the clothes on the female corpse belonged to Concubine Xi.
Luo Yunxuan's people rushed over, and their words confirmed the identity of the female corpse, which was Xi Concubine.
"What's going on?"
Lu Zhixing, who got the news, put down his official business and came to check.
"Back to Your Majesty, Concubine Xi was found by the palace people today and drowned in the pond here."
At this moment, Lin Yao also came with a group of palace people, she walked to Lu Zhixing's side, and saw the female corpse on the ground whose face was so blue and swollen that she couldn't see her true face, and her face became very, very ugly.
Xu felt a little disgusted, Lin Yao turned his face away and stopped looking at the ground.
"Your Majesty, what's going on?"
"Concubine Xi is dead."
"How is that possible?!"
Lin Yao was shocked, obviously very surprised by this, "A few days ago, the concubine also saw Concubine Xi's sister, how can she do it now." ”
After that, Lin Yao was about to cry, but Lu Zhixing didn't care about her at all, which made Lin Yao a little embarrassed.
