Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Little Heartbeat

Mo Zi was not in a hurry, but he was calm, found a position in the front and sat down, and said generously: "Since several gentlemen have said so, then I might as well be respectful." ”

I took the puzzle and asked, "Less Yamaguchi." Hit a title. ”

Mo Ziwu was stunned for a moment, and then said indifferently: "Xiaojun." ”

It suddenly occurred to me that Xiaojun was the exclusive name of the wives of the princes in the pre-Qin period, and later became the general name of wives. He said this to me...... My face warmed up a little.

It's just a puzzle, don't care, I quickly settled down and said, "Emei Mountain goes to a thousand miles of road, type." ”

"Me."

"Three points of the stars, a hook of the crescent moon. Typing. ”

"Heart."

"My son is always worried in my heart. Typing. ”

"Yue."

"Gather with you, and people will not part."

How can it be so simple? The more I read it, the more I realized that something was wrong, and several teachers were worried about it, and the puzzle shouldn't be so simple. I, the heart, and the joy are not the same together......

My heart pounded, and I turned to look at Mo Ziwei, who obviously also noticed this, and stopped without saying an answer. But a child guessed it and said loudly: "I know, it's you, the answer to the mystery is you." ”

My heart pleases you.

My face quickly flushed, "Hahaha-" The teachers finally couldn't hold back their laughter. Seeing the way they winked at me and Mo Ziwei, I realized that they were playing tricks on Mo Ziwei, and I was also being tricked.

Listening to their malicious laughter, I was ashamed and annoyed, and my face became hotter. Mo Ziwei's eyes were bright, and he apologized to me gently, "Miss Xiao, I'm sorry, I'm the one who has caused you." ”

I just wanted to say something, but I heard a burst of laughter from the children below, and it turned out that these children also came back to their tastes, staring at me and Mo Ziwu and laughing, and kept chanting the sentence "I am pleased with you." ”

"Brother Mo's heart is happy with Sister Qingqiang!"

In a panic, in order to calm them, I had to say, "Let's stop playing guessing riddles, let's have something fresh." How about I tell you a joke? ”

Regardless of whether they listened or not, I said to myself: "Once upon a time, there was a death row prisoner, at three o'clock in the afternoon, when the scorching sun was in the sky, the prison officer gave an order, behead!" Suddenly, the death row inmate burst into laughter, and the prisoner asked, why are you laughing? The death row inmate hesitated for a moment and said, the doctor expert was not wrong, and a smile can prolong life. ”

Someone started laughing at the bottom, and I said, "There is a young man who develops later than his peers and has a baby face, and one day, he invited the girl he likes to go out with him, and this beautiful girl said coldly, I don't like to go out with children." Guess what, that lad replied to her? ”

"Did he get angry and scold her?" Some children are starting to get curious.

"No, he smiled politely, sorry, girl, I didn't know you were pregnant with a child."

"He's so smart." The children snickered.

After telling a few jokes in a row, the children gradually became attracted to my jokes and did not grasp the awkward topic just now. Seeing that they had shifted their attention, I was reassured. looked around, but Mo Ziwei was gone.

I was thirsty and wanted to drink water, so I walked away, and when I looked around, I found the green shadow that I was used to. He was standing in front of a magnolia tree, silent.

In early July, magnolia flowers bloom, the flowers and leaves are large and thick green, the flowers are like white feathers stretching, and like a lotus arrow that is happy to go up, straight and straight, standing proudly according to the wind, the flower color is like jade such as fat, the heart of the flower is reddish, like playing a faint rouge, light application of vermilion powder and beautiful. From a distance, a tree is pale and beautiful, and magnolia is rampant.

He watched so intently that he didn't even notice when I approached, and I reminded him out loud, "Magnolia flowers are so beautiful." ”

Only then did he take his eyes off Magnolia and asked me lightly, "You got rid of them." ”

I complained, "Well, why didn't you help me?" ”

Mo Ziwu hit the nail on the head and said: "In that case, I will only help more and more." Moreover, you are smart and tell jokes well, which quickly diverts their attention. ”

Hearing his praise, I was not unhappy in my heart, but I didn't show it on my face, but stared at the magnolia and said, "You have been looking at this magnolia, do you like the magnolia flower very much?" ”

Mo Zi's clear eyes darkened somehow, "I used to like it very much." ”

Once? "Do you still like it?"

"I don't know." Mo Ziwu's eyes were in a trance, "Perhaps, I'm just nostalgic for the time when I liked her in the past." ”

I vaguely felt that there was a story in this, and I didn't ask any more. A gust of wind blew and made the blue clothes flutter, and his dark green clothes and my light green skirt were intertwined by the wind. Mo Ziwei stared ahead, not noticing this subtlety. I still stood without retreating, standing side by side with him, listening to the breeze blowing, the birdsong in the distance, the passing of the sky, there was a subtle and indescribable warmth.

——

Tomorrow is the Midyear Festival, the palace invited a mage, the sweet room to make offerings, set up a dojo to do things in Xiyuan, and allowed the palace maids to put lamps on the Xiyuan River to pray for their relatives. So this night, Ling'er and I prepared the materials for making lotus lanterns, carefully made a lotus lantern, and went to the river to put the lanterns together tomorrow night.

On the night of the Midyear Festival, the lights are beautiful. As soon as the mage finished the ritual, a group of palace maids and female officials couldn't hold it back, and ran to the river to put lamps and pray with a happy face. A lotus lamp gently put into the river, teasing a circle of green halo ripples, the shadow of the sparks swaying in the water, small silver flowers, burning all over the river clear water, illuminating the water curtain bright. The water waves under the lights are reflected in people's eyes, like twinkling green stars, which is particularly beautiful.

Putting the beautiful lotus lantern like a glass lamp into the water, Ling'er smiled clearly and asked, "Sister, what wish did you make?" ”

I quietly looked at the blue water lights, "If people really have souls after death, I hope that my mother and master can live well in heaven, and bless all the people I love and love me to be safe." ”

Ling Er's smile was extraordinarily bright under the light of the lights, "What I promise is that God bless me to be with my sister for the rest of my life and never be separated." ”

I couldn't help but smile and said softly: "Silly girl, you are going to go out of the palace to marry in the future, how can you be with me for the rest of your life." ”

"Nope." Ling'er frowned and pursed her lips and said, "I don't want to marry, how affectionate men are in the world, so I don't take them seriously." My favorite person is my sister, and of course I want to be with my sister for the rest of my life. ”

"Okay, I'll see if you'll remember what you said when you want to get married." I smiled in disbelief.

"I'm not going to leave my sister." Ling Er was extremely serious at this moment.

My smile paused, then deepened. I don't know why, obviously I've only known Ling'er for more than a month, but I'm not at all angry, I'm as close as a sister, and I have a long-lost sense of intimacy, and I naturally get acquainted with her, as if I've known her for a long time.

About, this girl is too likable.

I was walking back slowly from the river, when He Quan suddenly came to pass the word, saying that His Majesty had an order for me to get ready and go out of the palace with him, and I was taken to the palace gate in a hurry. Yu Wenyong was waiting for me in the carriage early in the morning, stretched out his hand to pull me into the carriage, I hesitated, but it was my own hand against the wall of the carriage, and with a force, stepped on the carriage.

I wondered in my heart, shouldn't Yuwen Yong have held a banquet in the palace at this time to spend Zhongyuan with the concubines of the harem, why did he leave them alone? But looking at Yu Wenyong's frozen face, I didn't dare to ask more.

The carriage stopped in Xishi, got out of the car, looked at the street lights, Yu Wenyong's face had some smiles, and whether I wanted to or not, he grabbed my hand, tightly did not let go, and pulled me to buy two lotus lanterns, and was very interested, asking me to go with him to put the lights under the Chengqiao River.

Today is the Midyear Festival, Chang'an has lifted the night ban, and there are many people who come out to put river lanterns. The bright moon of the fifteenth is full, bright, clear and transparent. Under the bright moon, the blue water is sparkling, there are two or three weeping willows on the river bank, the shadow of the faint green green, the slender willow of the oblique can be seen in the moving figures, Qiluo miscellaneous clothes, the lively laughter is far away on the water surface, hundreds of lotus lamps float on the green waves, drifting slowly, the lights of the stars, ten thousand silver flowers are scattered, lined with the blue river, the water and the moon are intertwined, the lights are shining, and the time is amazing.

Yu Wenyong grabbed me tightly along the way, and I could only free my hands when I put on the lamp, and took the opportunity to scoop a handful of water and wash my hands. Yu Wenyong was originally very happy, but when he saw this, he snorted coldly, looked at my flat expression, and slowly softened again, "Today is the Midyear Festival, I left my queen mother, left the concubines, and came out with you, just to simply and happily put a lamp, can't you make me happy?" There was something bleak in the words.

Looking at his lonely look, I felt a little sorry for him, but after thinking about it, he was not unhappy and it was not caused by me, he was the first to find trouble every time, how could he blame me?

In order to lighten the mood, I still said, "Then how can I make Childe happy?" "Now that he is outside the palace, you can't call him Your Majesty.

Under the light of the water waves and open fire, Yu Wenyong's face was surprisingly soft, "Talk to me, say something confidant, just like you do to Feng Xiaoshu on weekdays." ”

I was silent for a moment and said, "Then I'll dare to say a few words, Your Majesty don't be angry." ”

"As long as you don't say anything too out of line, it's fine, I won't blame you." Yu Wenyong looked at me with blazing eyes, "I want to know what you think of me in your heart." ”

I looked at the distance of the river, the lights were flickering, and I tried to keep my voice as soft and faint as possible, "Childe has been neglected by his parents since he was a child, and now he is suppressed everywhere, you probably feel very bitter in your heart." But in this world, who is not bitter? Some people, who have lost their parents since childhood, have been left behind, wandered, and starved. No home, no loved ones. When I was so hungry that I couldn't stand it, and I wanted to cry uncomfortably, I didn't even have a place to cry. He was also looked down upon, ridiculed, bullied, and trampled under his feet like ants. It's useless to cry and struggle, there is no one to help them, and life is humble and small. ”

"Childe, you have lived a good life since you were a child, do you know what it is like to be hungry, have you ever felt like being trampled under your feet? Even if your parents don't value you, they will still stand up for you if you are bullied. There is also a brother who cares about you, even though you are now oppressed by others, but you are still pampered, and there are a lot of people for you to call, how can you understand the suffering of our people? ”
