Chapter 47: Even if you admit your mistake once
Han Shuang's face was like dough in a frying pan, and then it was burnt yellow, and then it was ugly.
Countless times they met, she would tell him about her grievances like this, complaining about his lack of affection and cold-bloodedness.
At first, she would be weak-hearted, but after a long time, Han Shuang herself had to believe that she was wronged, she didn't seem to have betrayed anyone for a reward, and she never lied.
Until now.
Li Jingyun stood in front of her, played her hypocritical appearance all over again, and then lowered her eyes and asked her softly: "Do you know how disgusting it is for Ye to watch you lie for five years?" ”
The string that had been tense in my heart suddenly broke.
Han Shuang grabbed the fence, her throat was so tight that she couldn't breathe, she rolled her eyes, and tried to explain in a panic: "I'm not...... I was only 12 years old, and how did I know what to do and what not to do? Brother Jingyun, I really didn't mean to, I was just a ghost for a while-"
"And then I was obsessed for five years." He interrupted her and raised his eyes coldly, "Ye gave you a chance for up to five years. ”
Even if you admit your mistake once?
"I ......" was anxious and ashamed, Han Shuang's tears welled up, her body slid down a few inches against the fence, and she muttered and repeated, "I really didn't mean to, I really didn't." ”
A twelve-year-old girl, it was the time when vanity was at its peak, and the girl from another family was rewarded by which lady in the palace, and she showed off with her tail cocked, and she was so blushing that she naturally wanted to ask for it.
At that time, the Great Wei Dynasty was destroyed, countless loyal ministers of the Yin royal family were on the run, Feng Zixu was the most famous wise man among them, Jing Yun's brother admired his reputation and hid him in his own courtyard, at that time they had no guesses, Jing Yun's brother did not guard against her, let her wander around in the east courtyard, and happened to have a face with Feng Zixu.
She still remembered Feng Zixu's appearance, like a well-weathered ancient book, although the clothes were ragged, but her bearing was like a flower, and her eyebrows were full of emotions that she couldn't understand.
It's exactly like the portrait on the wanted post.
The little devil in her heart was troubled, and when Han Shuang was asking the eldest princess for peace, she suddenly opened her mouth to tell the truth and invited the credit.
She also loves him in the end, she didn't say that she was a Tibetan from the Li family, she only said that Feng Zixu disguised herself and deceived Jingyun's brother, and the eldest princess was magnanimous, and she didn't blame the Li family, she only took Feng Zixu away and cut off his head.
Han Shuang didn't think it was a big deal, and Feng Zixu and Brother Jing Yun just met in Pingshui, and a stranger's life was exchanged for her, which was very worthwhile.
That time, she got three strings of agate jade chains, two jade bracelets with excellent water heads, and a beautiful pearl and emerald phoenix tail hat, which were neatly dressed, and pressed the girls who liked to compare with her for several years without looking up.
But right now, Han Shuang knelt in front of him, suddenly regretting it as if he was crazy.
If she did it again, she didn't want to choose those rewards, it was better for the two of them to continue to grow up without any guilt than anything else, he would still protect her, he would only look at her alone, and she must be the one who could welcome her into the door, instead of seeing her as a thorn in the side as now.
Han Shuang looked up with trembling lips.
Li Jingyun didn't look at her anymore, he turned his head to the side, and said coyly: "You didn't cry, the master is tired of watching it, if you want to go to the court to be a witness, you can go, and the master won't stop you." ”
His eyes widened, Han Shuang shook his head stiffly, grabbed the fence and barely stood up, and said unwillingly: "Then you will die." ”
"It's better to die than to be with you." He laughed, and there was no temperature in his eyes, "Miss Han should change someone's mind, the master is really not good for you." ”
The words were as sharp as a knife, stabbing people's hearts at once, Han Shuang's eyes were red, bloodshot crawled from the tail of her eyes to her pupils, hideous and desperate, she had never suffered such humiliation, she was so ashamed that she almost wanted to hit the fence.
Wen Jiuzhi couldn't stand it, and persuaded her softly: "Miss, there's no need, there is no jade tree at the end of the world." ”
"He saved my life." Han Shuang's face was pale and murmured, "When he hanged himself last time, he still felt sorry for me, how long has it been, how long has it been......"
"The third master is hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, but they grew up together, if you really seek death, he may not feel happy." Wen Jiuzhi's eyes were full of unbearable, "But don't calculate it on him, eldest miss, you are also a smart person, the third master is the most taboo about this, you have committed it, don't say it, leave some dignity of the Han family, let's go." ”
Han Shuang cried and laughed, wiped her face with a handkerchief, and asked Li Jingyun stubbornly: "If the person who betrayed you is not me, are you willing to marry me when you are eighteen years old?" ”
Li Jingyun's eyes were mocking, and he opened his mouth to answer.
Han Shuang suddenly panicked, she grabbed her skirt and paced in place, turning around and covering her ears: "I know, I know the answer, you don't have to say it." ”
She looked up, and her whole person trembled so much that her tongue couldn't be straightened: "But the person you marry, she will also calculate you." ”
"You men look at women with very shallow eyelids, and you really think she is a good person. Wait and see, she will also betray Jing Yun's brother one day. ”
“……”
The skirt swept over, bringing the candlelight on the wall to go out, Han Shuang trembled and walked away in a panic, and the footsteps were messily moving away.
Wen Jiuzhi looked at it with a stunned face, then sat back opposite Li Jingyun, pointed in the direction she left and said, "Are the little girls so ruthless now?" If you can't get it, you have to curse two sentences. ”
Li Jingyun seemed to be thinking about things, his expression was a little solemn, and after a while, he answered him and poured him wine.
Wen Jiuzhi raised his head and drank, and was still a little indignant: "What a good person my sister-in-law is, and she has no background, how can she stick a knife in someone's back like her." ”
Stroking the hand on the rim of the cup, Li Jingyun pursed his lips and glanced in the direction of the skylight with a complicated expression.
Outside the window, it was nearly dusk.
The brilliant sunset filled the sky, and Hua Yue sat in the east courtyard with a blanket, opening her mouth to bite the chicken leg that Su Miao fed.
She said vaguely: "Miss Cousin, I don't really have a miscarriage, so I don't have to eat so much." ”
"If you send it from the kitchen, you won't eat it for nothing." Su Miao said while feeding her, her eyebrows fluttered, "The eye-catching courtyard in the mansion is finally gone, and those people in the mansion are very happy, all of them are vying to give you something to make up for your body, you, just rest in peace for two days, and leave the rest to your uncle and them to take care of." ”
Kazuki nodded, her gaze drifting to the person standing on the other side of the courtyard.
Shen Zhiluo came with Su Miao, but from the time he came in to the present, he didn't say a word, just looked at the magnolia tree in the courtyard.
"Miss Table." Frostfall suddenly shouted outside, "Madame, please come over." ”
Su Miao hurriedly stuffed the chicken leg into her hand, glanced at Shen Zhiluo, and didn't say anything, just smiled and said to her, "I'll come back when I go." ”
"Okay." Hua Yue should go down and watch her step out of the hospital.
The evening breeze rose in the yard, and the last magnolia on the branch did not remain, and the half-withered petals fell in a row. Shen Zhiluo stretched out his hand to catch it, but the petals fell from his hand in a whirl.
The feeling of powerlessness spread from his fingertips to his heart, Shen Zhiluo pursed his lips and squeezed the compass in his hand.
"Lord Shen." The man behind him called out to him.
He paused, collected his emotions and turned his head, facing Shanghuayue's calm eyes.
When she saw her before, she would resist and ridicule, but now she doesn't know what happened, and when she looks at him again, she can already look at him like an ordinary old man, polite and peaceful.
"Can Li Jingyun escape this time?" She asked.
The cuffs were closed, and the stars above were shining, Shen Zhiluo was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "You have never liked to listen to me about fate." ”
When he was young, the little master of the West Palace was the smartest and smartest, no matter what he learned, he was very fast, and when he wrote a picture to him, he would always be unable to help asking: "What reward do you want?" ”
The little man who was pink and white and jade replied to him without hesitation: "I want your Qiankun plate." ”
"What do you want this for?"
"Take it and smash it into mud." The little lord laughed out two little tiger teeth, which were bad and cute, "Then paste the wall." ”
She hated him very much, counted her fortunes and determined her future, and took the initiative to come to his palace ten times, and nine times she wanted to steal the Qiankun plate and smash it.
But now, Yin Huayue leaned on the bench and said to him gently, "Please take a look." ”
Shen Zhiluo suddenly felt bitter at the root of his tongue.
He tucked the Qiankun plate into his cuffs, lowered his eyes and said hoarsely: "He has been rich and noble all his life, there are no twists and turns, if you have to be with him, he will have a few more calamities to cross, and now this calamity is not very powerful, you don't have to worry too much." ”
More powerful is yet to come.
Hua Yue understood the meaning of his words, and couldn't help laughing: "Adults know that I am a disobedient character, and the more I persuade, the more I don't listen, so why bother to say these two sentences in a weird way." ”
"Say it's going to be said, whether you listen to it or not, it's up to you, the little master." Coughing twice, Shen Zhiluo covered his mouth with a handkerchief and wiped it fiercely, "After all, you haven't taken us people seriously." ”
"You, guys?" Hua Yue accentuated the last word, and her eyes rolled to understand, "Sun Yaozu, have they contacted you recently?" ”
Shen Zhiluo nodded, the second seal he got from Li Jingyun was the private seal of the eldest prince, so there were more people who contacted him recently. Sun Yaozu and Yin Ru were originally waiting, but somehow they suddenly figured it out and came to surrender to him.
The courtiers of the Great Wei who have been scattered, some have completely changed their minds, and some are in vain and wronged, if they want to reassemble these people, it will take a lot of effort, once they are discovered by Zhou Heshuo, it will be a fate to destroy the nine clans.
Fortunately, they have all been distracted by the affairs of the Governing House recently, and no one will pay attention to the ordinary tea parties and banquets.
Shen Zhi fell back to his senses and suddenly asked, "Have you ever been in contact with Feng Zixi?" ”
Bowing her head and sorting out the folds on the blanket, Hanayue replied, "I'm a slave, how can I contact the steward of the armory?" ”
Also, Shen Zhi bowed his head.
Yin Ru often said that the little lord has lost his heart, and he doesn't care about revenge at all, and she is already the gospel of the Yin royal family while she is alive, and she is not expected to do more.
Feng Zixun is now considered a high-ranking official, there is no reason to risk killing Han Tianyong, even if the wound in Han Tianyong's throat seems familiar, it may not necessarily be that he did it.
After being silent for a long time, Shen Zhiluo said in a low voice: "You are so good to take care of your body, don't take any more risks for the son of the Li family, he will reopen the palace door one day, and I will still serve you as the master." ”
Listen, how loyal and multi-emotional, if it weren't for lying down really comfortable, Hua Yue would have thought of giving him a salute. Shen Zhiluo, like Sun Yaozu, felt that she was a useless ornament, but she just said something nice and said something ugly.
Yawning, Kazuki wrapped herself in a blanket and closed her eyes.
Su Miao really came back after a while, looked at the person who was asleep on the chair, and changed the big grinning step to a small broken step on tiptoe, she took a light breath, leaned over to Shen Zhiluo's side and asked in a low voice, "Is this sleeping?" ”
Shen Zhiluo nodded and led her out of the East Courtyard.
Since the last time Su Miao was drunk and damaged the Qiankun plate, the two of them have not seen each other for a long time, according to the prince's instructions, Shen Zhiluo gave Su Miao a gift box of reparation, I heard that she accepted it with a smile, but she didn't give him a word.
said that she was going to come over today, I thought she would find an excuse to shirk it, but who expected Su Miao to lead him into the house and send him out of the house as if she was nothing.
Shen Zhiluo couldn't help but ask, "What have you been busy with lately?" ”
Su Miao raised her eyebrows, and said with her hands in her heart: "It's rare that you care about me." ”
"Nope." He pursed his lips, "Just ask." ”
The person next to her smiled, a face was bright and beautiful, she jumped on the bluestone bricks, crossed her fingers and said to him: "I was invited to go to the mountains to play in the flowing water, got a few good poems, and came back to have someone frame it and give it to my uncle, my uncle has been worried about my cousin's affairs recently, and it is good to be able to make him smile." ”
"In the past few days, it's been a matter of burning the master's house, oh, I don't know if I don't burn it, I'm also decent in Jinghua, so many people rushed to condole, let me act impulsively next time."
Shen Zhiluo asked, "Who is here?" ”
"The little waiter of the military department, the servant of the East Palace, and a few people who have met at the banquet." She thought for a moment and shook her head, "I can't remember the names, but I remember the clothes they wore, and some of them were quite good-looking." ”
“……”
The people next to him were silent, and Su Miao didn't notice it, but still said with a smile as she walked: "It's you, who just came to see me by the way now, and you don't look like a husband who has been married at all." ”
Shen Zhiluo smiled coldly: "Then who is most like?" ”
When normal people listen to this, they should know that they are angry, and they should appease them, saying that no one is like it.
But Su Miao didn't, she touched her chin very, very, very seriously and pondered: "The little squire is gentle and gentle, but he lets me too, not like a husband, like a guard." The one in your East Palace, I don't know if I have learned from you, I clearly have a belly of words, but I just refuse to say it directly, and I want to be cautious around the bend, and I look at it at a glance, which is a little cute. But it's still the Lin family's appearance that looks the most, tsk, if I didn't have a relative, I really have to think about it. ”
"Miss Su has countless peach blossoms in her life, and it should be so." Shen Zhiluo pulled the corners of his mouth and raised, "If you feel that your family affairs are hindering the peach blossoms, you might as well go and tell Your Highness and ask him to give you another husband." ”
Su Miao shook her head, and the steps in her hair swayed straight away: "Don't want it, how good it is to have a family affair with Da Si Ming, you can not only bloom peach blossoms, but also have a place to return home, anyway, Da Si Ming has seen the destiny of heaven, and he won't care who I am good with, am I not happy?" ”
As soon as his gums tightened, Shen Zhiluo stopped his steps.
He turned his head to look at her, and said as calmly as possible: "I don't care, but Miss Su doesn't want to be embarrassed, and Shen doesn't want to be poked in the back." ”
The smile on his face froze for a moment, and then stretched out again, Su Miao stretched her waist, and said coquettishly: "Then you go and repent of marrying His Highness, just say that I am a prodigal person and unworthy of being a wife." Your Highness favors you so much, you must have agreed. ”
In front of him was the side door, Su Miao didn't give it away, stood in place and waved at him with a smile, as well-behaved as a little fox wagging his tail.
Shen Zhiluo felt that his heart was blocked.
How can there be such a girl in the world, who does not follow the rules at all, saying that she is affectionate, she is partial to him, but she can say that she is dedicated, but she can praise anyone.
She was like a mouse, being slapped by her cat's paws, she didn't want to eat him in one bite, but she didn't want to let him go.
The cheeks tightened, and Shen Zhiluo flicked his sleeves and stepped out of the door.
Su Miao stood behind him, watching the stars disappear outside the door, and the smile on her face slowly disappeared.
***
The lawsuit between the Han family and Situ Feng lasted for seven days, and the two parties quarreled from Jingzhao Yin Yamen to the court, and finally because the evidence in Situ Feng's hands was conclusive, he was sentenced to exile in Huizhou, and he did not have to pay Han Tianyong's life.
The Han family and his wife were so angry that they fell ill, and the eldest princess was also anxious, and in the chaos, Situ Feng left Jinghua happily.
Although Huizhou is far away, it is not a barren place, with the blessing of the prince, he can find another official position in the past to live again, it is not a dead end, so when he got on the prisoner car, he was still humming a little tune with his legs crossed, and the tune was sprinkled on the potholed dirt road, and it was quite rural.
"There's a post ahead." The official who escorted him said, "When you arrive, go and rest." ”
"Okay." Situ Feng responded with a smile, and began to hum yellow plum leaves again.
The post station was not far from Jinghua, and the official sent him into a wing room to look for food. Situ Feng looked left and right, and felt that this room was also unusual, the habit of the Liang people, there must be a partition between the table and chair and the bed, but the furnishings in this room are like the customs of Dawei, the table and chair are leaning against the bed, and a pot of tea is also placed.
Rushing to Huizhou all the way, he didn't know how many bumps he had to suffer in the middle, and with the idea that Noh was a moment, he sat down and poured two mouthfuls into his mouth with a teapot.
Leaning on the back of the chair with his legs crossed, Situ Feng thought with a sigh, the last time he saw this kind of room was many years ago.
At that time, the tea table in the palace was placed next to the bed, and he pierced the abdomen of a concubine with a knife, watched her fall on the table, and staggered to the bed. Bright red blood snaked all the way, like red embroidery on brocade, from the table to the bed.
He was never afraid of that scene, and even missed it very much, because there was a time when he was a high-ranking official.
It's a pity...... Situ Feng shook his head and took another sip of tea.
At noon, the sun was in full bloom, shining a little sleepy, Situ Feng felt that his eyelids were heavy, and he wanted to get up and go to bed in a daze, but he never thought that his feet were weak, and he fell down softly when he stepped on it, facing the ground, and his forehead "banged" on the edge of the bed.
This knock was really heavy, and the pain made his eyes white, and he couldn't help but cry out "sigh yo yo".
The door was pushed open, and there was a squeak, Situ Feng thought that the official had returned, and hurriedly covered his head and shouted: "Come and see if my head has been broken?" Alas, it hurts to death. ”
The man walked up to him slowly, leaned down to look at it, and said with a smile: "It's a small hole, it's okay." ”
How is it a woman's voice? Situ Feng was stunned and looked up in confusion.
Hua Yue smiled to meet his gaze, her eyes were clear and shining, and the broken hair on her sideburns fell down a little, adding to the gentleness.
She took a handkerchief and pressed the wound on his forehead, and said softly, "Just stop the bleeding." ”
Inexplicably, Situ Feng felt cold all over his body, he waved his hand indiscriminately to block her, shrunk back and retreated: "You, who are you?" ”
"The slave is the handyman of this station." She blinked.
Situ Feng shook his head and frowned: "No, no, you're not a handyman, how did you get in?" ”
He looked at the door behind her, pushed her open in a panic, and tried to run that way.
However, as soon as he took a step on his legs, his whole body fell to the ground, and his limbs were as weak as if they had been cramped, like a mass of boneless flesh, struggling to curl up and move towards the door.
The person behind him did not catch him, but followed his movements slowly and methodically towards the door, and the footsteps were elegant and clear.
Click-click-
Situ Feng's face was full of horror, and he said while squirming: "You let me go, let me go, we have no grievances, what do you want to do?" Go away, go away! ”
Hua Yue watched him crawl to the door for a long time, and with a touch of his fingers, the rusty shaft made a hoarse turning sound, and the two wooden doors slowly closed.
The light narrowed from wide to wide, and the last strand of orange faded from the door of his head, leaving only a pair of eyes with pupils as shrunk as the tip of a pin.
Situ Feng was in a hurry, and began to scold and beg for mercy with a grunt in his mouth, and the person in front of him listened with a good temper and fed him a pill.
The cacophony gradually turned into inaudible whimpering, and there were screams of extreme pain stuck in the throat, which sounded like someone's broken bellows, pulling out the broken hollow sound without stopping.
After a while, Hua Yue put away the bloodstained knife and gently helped Situ Feng to the bed.
He still stared at her with his eyes open, but his body could not move, and the smell of blood in the room was strong and choking, but he was not dead, his eyes bulged as he watched her get up, and his voiceless mouth was almost deformedly open.
Kazuki calmly opened the door and went out.
The hem of her skirt swept on the threshold, bringing up a layer of ash, and her face was expressionless, but her eyes were gloomy, as if she had been choked by something, depressed and crazy.
She wanted to look up at the sun outside, but this time she looked up, and Hua Yue bumped into a pair of very familiar eyes.
The pupils contain ink, the ink color is like lacquer, the color is rolled and blended, giving people a sense of tranquility for no reason, like a dark stone soaking in the stream, and dark clouds rolling up the night sky.
Hua Yue was distracted, and the anger in her eyes gradually faded, and then a few traces of panic surged up.
She snapped the door behind her shut.
Li Jingyun stood at the bottom of the corridor with her hands in her hands, wearing the Xuanqing crow robe she sent today.
He looked down at her, but didn't speak.
