Chapter 519: Deep in the Bamboo Forest
Meng Tianchu: "Xi Yue, you stop, this official must not be rude when talking to you." ”
Xi Yue listened to it seriously, and walked in front of Meng Tianchu and them, Meng Tianchu saw a layer of fine beads of sweat on Xi Yue's forehead, it seemed that she was really hot, panting, and there was a weird smile on the corner of her mouth, which made people shudder a little.
After Xi Yue rested for a while, she said, "Meng Tianchu, has the pot of flowers in the study been moved?" ”
Zuo Jiayin: "Xi Yue, do you know that you are very unkind to do this?" ”
Xi Yue laughed, Zuo Jiayin suddenly took advantage of Xi Yue's laughter to pop out of his fingers, the thing went straight towards Xi Yue's mouth, and with a bang, Xi Yue raised his head, and the thing had been swallowed from his throat.
Du Qin was shocked and said, "Third lady, what did you give Yue'er to eat?" ”
Zuo Jiayin smiled proudly, looking at Du Qin's nervousness, and then seeing that Xi Yue no longer had the arrogance just now, Xi Yue nervously pinched her neck, rushed to Zuo Jiayin, and said, "You evil woman, what are you giving me to eat?" ”
Zuo Jiayin smiled but didn't answer, Du Qin said to Xi Yue: "Yue'er, hurry up and spit it out!" ”
Xi Yue glanced at Du Qin and said, "I want you to take care of it!" ”
Meng Tianchu sneered: "It seems that the good show that this official wants to watch today is gone, and at this time you still have the heart to talk about it, alas, let's go." ”
Xi Yue shouted: "Meng Tianchu, you let your woman get this thing out of my body, otherwise..."
Zuo Jiayin: "Otherwise, what? If you have any other tricks, you can use them for me, I tell you Xi Yue, I Zuo Jiayin will not be afraid of you. Tianchu will not be afraid of you, if you want to harm us again, I will let you know what life is better than death. ”
Meng Tianchu had never seen such a fierce god as Zuo Jiayin with a solemn face, and he leaned in front of Xi Yuedi as if he was about to eat Xi Yue. Even Meng Tianchu was a little afraid when he saw this.
Du Qin saw that Meng Tianchu and they were leaving, so he rushed to Meng Tianchu and knelt down for Meng Tianchu.
Zuo Jiayin looked at Du Qin. said: "I also know that you also have the ability to read minds, you might as well have a mother and daughter work together, and see if my Zuo Jiayin can stop the calculations of the two of you." ”
Du Qin said in a panic: "Third lady, the slave family knows that you have this ability, you are the most important earth master in front of the Lord of Long Live, my family Yue'er has no intention of harming the prefect, but I just want to meet the adult through such a method." This girl, she... She's in love with the prefect. ”
Xi Yue said loudly behind her back: "You shut up for me, I don't need you to find a bunch of excuses to excuse me, I don't appreciate it, I'll tell you." ”
Zuo Jiayin: "She... Like Tianchu? Isn't your reason a bit far-fetched? ”
Du Qin: "I didn't lie to you and the prefect, I can read people's minds without mistakes, but I have never used such skills to harm anyone, and there is one thing that you and the prefect don't know yet." That is, Xi Yue can read anyone's mind, but she can't read my mind and the mind of the man she likes, the more she can't read, the more she wants to know what the prefect is thinking. So I came up with such a method. ”
Meng Tianchu couldn't cry or laugh, turned around and looked at Xi Yue, Xi Yue looked at Meng Tianchu's eyes bravely, and was not afraid, but calm.
Meng Tianchu: "Xi Yue, what your mother said..."
Xi Yue: "I don't have a mother, my mother has died a long time ago." This woman is not my mother. ”
Meng Tianchu: "You are too stubborn. ”
Xi Yue's head twisted. "It has nothing to do with you. ”
Meng Tianchu simply walked up to Xi Yue and looked at Xi Yue's arrogant face. "Don't you want to know what my lady has given you to eat?" ”
Xi Yue smiled and said, "I'll tell you the truth, even if it's poison, I, Xi Yue, won't be afraid, I'm not afraid of death." ”
Meng Tianchu laughed, Xi Yue was puzzled, and said, "Meng Tianchu, what are you laughing at?" ”
Meng Tianchu: "It is said that when a person is concerned about something, she is reluctant to die, your mother said that you like me, but you said that you are not afraid of death, is this a contradiction?" ”
Xi Yue looked at Meng Tianchu's smug appearance with disdain, and said, "Your original intention was to tell me that if I still want to see you and live, I won't let you continue to hate me, right?" ”
Meng Tianchu nodded.
Xi Yue said silently: "You will miss out on many women in this life, and I, Xi Yue, am not the only one, what do I have to regret." Even if you end up with more than a dozen women around you, but you still can't get the woman you love the most, so when I think about it, I won't regret it, there are too many things in this life that can't be perfect, and loving and being loved are naturally the same, you won't understand. ”
Meng Tianchu smiled and said, "Hugh wants to talk nonsense with me, then you understand?" ”
Xi Yue looked at Meng Tianchu's eyes, as if there was a force that shot directly into Meng Tianchu's heart, making Meng Tianchu feel a heartfelt vibration, but what Meng Tianchu was not clear.
Xi Yue: "In the past, I thought that as long as it was the person I loved, I should choose to love me as a matter of course, because I must see the return and result when I give, but since I have experienced Xi Pickup, I know that love is not wishful thinking. ”
Meng Tianchu: "That's it, that's it, I don't listen to you say this, the official has no intention of talking to you about the love between men and women, let's go, you can stay here well." ”
Meng Tianchu and the others were about to come to the end and were about to step out of the door of the cell, when suddenly a very ethereal sound came from behind them, vaguely but very clearly echoing in Meng Tianchu's ears.
"Meng Tianchu, it's not that she doesn't love you, but she can't be your woman, does this feeling make you feel the same as the one I can't get because I love you at this time, it's painful, you and I empathize, it's also a kind of fate."
Meng Tianchu's heart was shocked, Zuo Jiayin saw that Meng Tianchu's face suddenly turned pale, and hurriedly stepped forward to support him. Meng Tianchu stretched out his hand and held Zuo Jiayin's arm tightly, no one spoke, and walked out of the door, Du Qin caught up. Zuo Jiayin looked at Du Qin coldly and said, "Since you can read our thoughts, don't ask." Asking is also asking in vain. ”
Du Qin: "Third lady, I'm not asking anything, I'm just asking for a favor from the prefect." ”
Meng Tianchu stopped and said, "What do you want?" ”
Du Qin: "Please let the slave stay with her daughter in the cell until she is beheaded." ”
Meng Tianchu flatly refused, and then got in the car, Zuo Jiayin saw Du Qin's disappointed look, and said: "This is not in accordance with the rules, but I still advise you to stay at home with peace of mind." Xi Yue may not want you to accompany her. ”
Du Qin nodded weakly, watching Meng Tianchu and their carriage go away, feeling that his heart was empty.
Outside the city.
A horse-drawn carriage sped up clouds of dust on the pipes and quickly disappeared into a jungle.
It was not yet dawn, only the edges were glowing with some white colors of fish belly, and a faint halo reflected in the room, filling the room with the smell of the pre-dawn land.
Yin Susu blinked her sour eyelids. Raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his cheeks, got up lazily, sat on the edge of the bed and put on his indoor embroidered shoes at will, and quietly walked to the window. Open the window on your own.
Looking at the white belly of the fish in the sky, what was reflected in her mind was Meng Tianchu's unfathomable inky black handsome eyes, alas! What should she do with him who always haunts her? She couldn't give up on him, but she knew very well that she couldn't help but leave and hide in this deep mountain and old forest. He had food and clothing brought to him. Even she alone has six maids waiting for her, and she also has people build a small bamboo building next to Gongsun Ju's burrow day and night. One is to keep her away from the ground moisture, and the other is because she knows that she likes to climb high and look far.
Everything was very thoughtful for her, but she neglected one point, that is, Meng Tianchu himself, he has never come to see Yin Susu, it has been ten days, Yin Susu seems to have passed ten years, plucking the strings and playing all day long, it is just more and more lonely, those who can hear the sound of their piano are just some dead trees and old vines.
Yin Susu sighed deeply, and stood in front of the window like that, and the maid came over from behind lightly to put on a coat for Yin Susu, and said softly: "Girl, Mr. Gongsun asked you how you feel better today?" ”
Yin Susu nodded slightly, and Li'er helped Yin Susu to walk to the dresser, carefully combing Yin Susu's hair, Yin Susu's hair has been falling more and more recently, Li'er needs to be very careful, and she will blame herself for a long time if she drops one.
Yin Susu: "Li'er, is my hair getting less and less?" ”
While carefully combing Yin Susu's hair, Li'er said softly: "No, the girl's hair is black and shiny." ”
Yin Susu deliberately didn't see the green silk falling on her shoulder, sighed secretly, secretly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and reluctantly smiled at Li'er in the mirror.
Someone went upstairs, the footsteps were hurried, Yin Susu frowned slightly, recently she likes to stay alone quietly, and she is very tired of some too loud noises, Li'er saw that Yin Susu was unhappy, and hurriedly walked to the door and said: "Who is so unruly, the girl doesn't like to be loud, you don't know." ”
As soon as the words fell, Li'er saw a man covered with stone blue flowers and eight groups of forged spikes, wearing a blue satin foundation and small boots like the moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the color was like a spring dawn flower, the sideburns were like a knife, the eyebrows were like ink paintings, the face was like peach petals, and the man with autumn eyes came into view, Li'er was stunned at first, and saw that the man booed to herself, and then smiled, turned around and walked to Yin Susu's side and put down the comb in her hand, and then walked out of the door, and passed by the man. Whispered downstairs.
Yin Susu held her cheeks in her hand, stared at herself in the mirror with a pair of big watery eyes, and didn't notice that someone had approached her, and thought it was Li'er, and said: "Li'er, close the door, I don't mean to be sunny this day, I'm sleepy, I want to sleep for a while." ”
The door was closed, Yin Susu waited for Lian'er to support her, she was also weak recently, she had no energy at all, she had no intention of getting up when she sat down, and she couldn't sit up when she lay down, feeling that she had reached the twilight of her life.
Yin Susu hurriedly had someone hold her arm up, and she suddenly felt that the other party's palm was thick and powerful, and it was different from Lian'er. Only then did he turn around and look, he was stunned, thought it was an illusion, and blinked. The person in front of him was clearly not a pity, but the man he had been thinking about for a long time. Meng Tianchu.
Meng Tianchu saw Yin Susu looking at him in shock, his face was haggard and pale, Meng Tianchu's heart tingled, he tried to smile, helped Yin Susu to sit down in front of the bed, squatted down to take off the embroidered shoes for Yin Susu, and then put Yin Susu down on the bed and covered her with a quilt, the whole process seemed to be very natural. Yin Susu didn't say a word, just watched Meng Tianchu do it for himself, and it wasn't until he lay down and Meng Tianchu called Su Su that this feeling returned to reality.
Meng Tianchu: "Susu, I... Passing by here, I came to see you. You okay? ”
It turns out that people are just passing by, do you think they will really come to see you?
Yin Susu felt a sense of loss in her heart, nodded with a faint smile, but did not speak.
Meng Tianchu felt that the room was a little cold. Seeing Yin Susu's hands outside the quilt, he got up and prepared to ask someone to bring a brazier or a stove or something, who would have thought that suddenly Yin Susu gently tugged the corner of Meng Tianchu's clothes, but quickly let go, Meng Tianchu turned his head and said softly: "I'm not leaving, I'll let someone get you a brazier or something." It's pretty cold in this room. You can't get the wind chill now. ”
Yin Susu saw Meng Tianchu walk to the door and say something to the people downstairs, and then quickly walked in. This footstep walking on the floor of the bamboo building made Yin Susu feel very safe and steady, she suddenly regretted leaving the Meng Mansion and entering the mountain, even if she couldn't stay with this man, but she could hear his footsteps every day.
Meng Tianchu returned to the bed, and saw that Yin Susu was looking at him with gentle eyes, he sat down, and then Gongsun Ju walked in and said respectfully: "My lord, I heard that it has been snowing heavily outside the mountain for a few days, and the road into the mountain is very difficult, right?" ”
Meng Tianchu looked at Yin Susu, and said to Gongsun Ju with a smile: "It's okay, it's not difficult to go." ”
Gongsun Ju: "My lord, the old man is saying that he wants to see when the weather is good and he will come out of the mountain to find you, but fortunately, you are here." ”
Meng Tianchu: "Is there something wrong?" ”
Gongsun Ju looked at Yin Susu, Meng Tianchu understood that Gongsun Ju was probably going to talk about Yin Susu's condition, so he said to Yin Susu in a good voice: "I'm going to drink some hot tea, I'll come soon, Jiayin is also here, let her accompany you, okay?" ”
Yin Susu doesn't want Meng Tianchu to leave at this moment, and she doesn't want anyone to accompany her, although among Meng Tianchu's six wives, Xiaonuo is her own apprentice, but she is the most in love with Zuo Jiayin, but at this time, she only wants Meng Tianchu to accompany her, and she doesn't want to see anyone else.
Meng Tianchu saw Yin Susu's reluctant expression, but in fact, he was reluctant to leave when he saw her, so he said to Gongsun Ju: "Recently, the girl still takes a regular bath every day?" ”
Gongsun Ju: "Soaking, there is still an hour to soak, but since the adults are here, you might as well get up and move around, and let the adults accompany you downstairs, so that the effect of bathing is better, and it is not good for you to lie down all day." ”
When Meng Tianchu saw Gongsun Ju say this, he said, "Also, get up, let me accompany you downstairs." ”
Yin Susu nodded obediently, Gongsun Ju didn't want to bother anymore, knowing that Meng Tianchu wanted to accompany Yin Susu for a while and talk to himself when Yin Susu was taking a bath, so he went downstairs.
After Yin Susu got up, he felt that the world was spinning for a while, and he couldn't support it a little, Meng Tianchu hurriedly hugged Yin Susu in his arms, Yin Susu was suddenly embarrassed, and was about to struggle to get up, Meng Tianchu whispered: "Good, I'll help you go downstairs." ”
Yin Susu listened and knew that his body was very weak now, so he had to let Meng Tianchu help him out and then go downstairs carefully.
Yin Susu's maid Li'er stepped forward and said respectfully to Meng Tianchu: "My lord, your room has been prepared for you, do you want to go and have a look?" ”
Yin Susu looked up at Meng Tianchu in surprise when she heard this, and Meng Tianchu said with a smile: "I'll stay here with you for a few days before leaving, you won't be annoyed, right?" ”
When Yin Susu heard this, he thought that Meng Tianchu was really just passing by and was going to leave that day, and when he heard that he was going to stay, he was naturally happy in his heart, but he was embarrassed to show it, so he didn't say anything.
Meng Tianchu said to Li'er: "Let Jiayin and Su Su be companions at night, I see that there is a room next to Su Su that is empty, what is the original land, if it is convenient, just put a bed for me there." ”
Li'er: "Yes, it's okay, I'm afraid it will be cold at night." ”
Meng Tianchu: "It's okay, a big man won't be so cold, go ahead." ”
Seeing Yin Susu's little bird leaning on Meng Tianchu's arms, the corners of her mouth showed a happy smile that she had never seen before, and she walked away happily.
Meng Tianchu has been walking slowly on the stone path downstairs with Yin Susu in his arms, no one spoke, until he walked in front of a bamboo forest, Yin Susu seemed to be tired, Meng Tianchu said: "You can't walk more than a hundred meters, you are so tired, or I will carry you away?" ”
Yin Susu said coquettishly: "Now I know that you coaxed your six ladies like this. ”
Meng Tianchu was puzzled at first, then smiled and said, "I have no intention of being a thin girl." ”
Yin Susu smiled indifferently and stretched out his hands, Meng Tianchu didn't understand, but Yin Susu said, "Didn't you hug me?" ”
Meng Tianchu smiled, quickly lowered his body and hugged Yin Susu, who was light, very easily, and said: "You are the reason why you have rarely walked recently, and you still have to move more in the future, in fact, you are not sick, but you are troubled in your heart, thinking that it is a stubborn disease, so you are depressed and unhappy, in fact, it is a heart disease, you know?" Yin Susu leaned on Meng Tianchudi's arms and said, "I want to go back with you." ”
Yin Susu has never called Meng Tianchu's name, he used to be called Lord Meng, but now the relationship is close, but it's just you and you calling, but Meng Tianchu is also used to it.
Meng Tianchu hugged Yin Susu and walked back, saying as he walked: "Okay, then we will go back, as long as you want, you can do anything." ”
Yin Susu looked at Meng Tianchu and said, "I still have that ring on my chest, the closest place to my heart." ”
Meng Tianchu snorted, did not speak, but his heart was warm, the road of 100 meters was not accompanied by Yin Susu, Meng Tianchu hugged her but quickly returned to the yard, Gongsun Ju stood in front of the fence outside the yard, like a father waiting for a child who returned late, so amiable and kind.
Yin Susu whispered to Meng Tianchu: "Mr. Gongsun is a good person, if I die one day, you have to treat him well, is it okay?" ”
Meng Tianchu was annoyed and said, "Don't say such things, you are dead, what should I do?" ”
Yin Susu felt sad for a while, pretended to smile, and said, "Aren't there still your six ladies?" ”
Meng Tianchu tightly pressed Yin Susu to the first floor of his arms, and said, "You don't understand your status in my heart, that's different, you know?" ”
Yin Susu didn't speak, at this time Gongsun Ju approached, smiled and said: "Girl, let's go, it's time to take a bath, the third lady said just now, let her accompany you, just enough to talk, what do you see?" ”
Yin Susu nodded, Meng Tianchu put Yin Susu down, at this time, Zuo Jiayin walked out of a room, Yin Susu saw Zuo Jiayin happily stepped forward, the two women hugged tightly, and then Zuo Jiayin looked at Yin Susu, who was getting haggard, and felt a little sad, but her face was full of smiles, and said, "Miss Yin, let's go into the house and talk." ”
