Chapter 1: Reckoning
This year's winter came more suddenly than usual.
Yesterday, Bianliang City was still in the hot sun, and sweat beads flowed when I moved; Today there was a strong wind, and the black clouds were suppressed. In the blink of an eye, the snow particles had fallen to the ground.
"It's weather like this again!" The terminally ill Empress Dowager Luo looked out the window at the white expanse and smiled contentedly: "This is the case when Huairen leaves, the snow particles wash away the world, and he comes and leaves clean." ”
He has been in charge of the country for the young emperor for fifteen years, with internal and external troubles, and surrounded by tigers and wolves. Roman's heart was exhausted, and now he has run out of oil and lamps, and when he says these two words, he no longer has the strength to speak.
Her face was pale, and her eyes were as bright as stars: Huairen, I'm going to find you!
Our son has grown up and is in the court, and his ability to govern the country is above me, and I can look at you and rest assured. For so many years, the palace has been bloody and bloody, and the court has open guns and hidden arrows, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have survived......
Thinking of you, all those suffering, hardship, and hatred will disappear. Whether it's Jiangshan or my son, I must guard it for you!
I held on, and the dynasty that was poor and begging for food was gone. By this year, the four seas will be leveled, and all directions will come; The amount of silver grain handed over from all over the country has multiplied dozens of times......
The wind blows, and the snow particles fly into snowflakes. Roman struggled to reach out the window, like a butterfly about to fly......
That year, I was confiscated into the workshop and committed suicide with a knife, and you saved me; The palace was trampled on, you taught me the way to survive and made me successful; When you ascended the throne, you entrusted me with all your children......
You are good to me, but you only love Zhou Mei.
It's that she doesn't have you in her heart, and in the end she hurts you, and you still don't change your heart and love her alone......
"You said you love me in the next life, only me!" Roman smiled at the corner of his mouth and passed away: Huairen, you have to count when you speak!
………………
Roman sat alone in front of the open window, his chin in his hands, and watched the sunlight shine through the branches of the trees in a daze, as if he was thinking about things and as if he was distracted.
She's dead, but she's alive! I lived when I was eleven years old.
This year, she was calculated by Pei Pozi to marry Pei Junlin, and since then she has lived in the embroidery building and embroidered her dowry with joy.
After five years of embroidery, the super-rich family changed his surname to Pei; My grandfather's family was convicted and exiled, and the whole family died in a foreign land; Xuanyi Bofu rebelled, and the man punished the woman......
Roman's eyes flashed sharply, and he snorted as if there was nothing.
"What is my sister looking at?"
As soon as the voice arrived, Roland's furry little head was already crowded in front of Roman. She followed her sister's gaze and also looked at the mottled shadow of the tree: "It's like spilling whitebait cake on the ground, no wonder my sister is fascinated." ”
Roman fixed his eyes on the shadows of the trees, but he couldn't see the whitebait.
She smiled and reached out to point her sister's forehead, full of helplessness and pampering: "I can think of eating this, and I'm really convinced!" ”
He also instructed the girl waiting outside: "Go and serve the second lady a plate of whitebait......"
"Don't go, I won't eat." Before Roman finished speaking, Roland, who was originally pulling his sister to be coquettish, jumped up and shouted out. The voice was agitated and sharp, like a great enemy.
Roman waved his hand to let the girl who came in and waited for the order to go down, and then squatted down and took his sister's hand, and asked with a smile: "You don't love whitebait cake the most, why don't you eat it?" ”
"Mama said I'm too fat......" Roland lowered his little head, so inferior that he didn't dare to look at his sister's eyes: "I don't even have half of my sister's color, how can I talk about marriage in the future?" ”
Roman looked at his seven-year-old sister in surprise, and pinched his sister's face with a smile: "The white and tender little face is round, but even a double chin hasn't grown yet, why is it too fat?" ”
He reached out again to touch Roland's little belly, and said disdainfully: "The little belly doesn't have an upside-down plate drum, it's really embarrassing for a fat man." ”
Looking at Roland's eyes that lit up a little, Roman smiled and pinched the itchy flesh on her waist, and said with a smile: "I am only seven years old and I want to discuss marriage, don't be ashamed!" ”
Roland was scratched by his sister and giggled, and while dodging his sister's hand, he picked up the empty answer: "Mama said that you should see each other at the age of eight or nine, and you can decide at the age of ten, let me plan earlier." ”
Before he finished calculating himself, he hit Lan'er's idea again?
Roman made a mistake in his heart, and still laughed at his sister on his face: "Marrying a wife and marrying virtue, can you still lose your virtue and fat if you gain ten pounds?" ”
Roland stopped laughing, Roland pinched her itchy flesh again, and she flattened her mouth full of tears: "Mama said that before losing weight, I will deduct two meals after eating a snack." ”
"Just to scare you......"
"No, I was hungry the afternoon before yesterday and ate half a lotus seed cake. Mama slapped my palm, and I really didn't give me dinner, and I only let me serve a cup of tea for breakfast the next day. ”
Is this to the master? It's a training maid, and it's not so tough and mean!
Roman was at ease, hugged his sister and wiped the tears she didn't dare to fall, and asked her: "The rules set by Mama Pei?" ”
"Hmm." Roland hugged her sister's neck, leaned her delicate little face on her sister's shoulder, sighed long and said with a strong smile: "Sister, don't feel sorry for me, everything Mama does must be for my good." Don't you and your mother always say that in this world, only Mama Pei is willing to take out her heart to plan for us, and there is something wrong with it, it must be that we don't understand Mama's deep meaning. ”
This bastard said it himself?
Roman laughed angrily, she rubbed her sister's hair, pulled her and said seriously: "Even the body is hungry, what else can be good in the future?" No matter how deep the meaning of Mama is, she can't joke with her body. ”
Speaking of this, Roman smiled: "In the future, you come and eat with me, and you must not be hungry at all." ”
"Pretty Mama......"
"I'll go talk to Mama!"
Luo Lan, who was still low just now, suddenly became excited, and his big black eyes overflowed with brilliance: "Sister go and say, Mama will definitely be accurate." Mama also said to her mother yesterday, when you pass the door, you will be the director of the family, who dares to have a word in the Pei family, she will never spare it! ”
She will never be spared, so isn't the Pei family still only pinched in her hands?
Roman smiled, and was not in a hurry to teach his sister. She is still young, not yet old enough to say that she will get married. As for Pei Pozi's calculations......
A slave, how can it be important for a sister to be happy?
"Sister, go and go to see my embroidered purse."
After solving the belly matter, Roland excitedly pulled Roman outside: "In two days, the Pei family's small gift will be brought over, just for reward." ”
"Brother Junlin is good-looking, and the daughter of our Luo family is not a straw bag. When it is time for Xiaoding, let them all open their eyes, so that they can take a look at our needlework girl. ”
Hearing this, Roman nodded his sister's forehead and smiled.
Although after the death of his father, his mother took a few of his brothers and sisters to live in Wanzhaoyuan. No matter how you say it, they are still the serious four rooms of Xuanyi Bofu, and Bofu has never left a festival ceremony or greeting according to the New Year's Day.
Don't talk about Bofu, just talk about the declining grandfather's house. The eldest uncle also held important positions along the way, and the younger uncle was in charge of half of the city's wealth. Even if they broke off contact because of old grievances, their mother and their foreign family were connected and could not be torn apart for the rest of their lives.
She has a good appearance, no loss of virtue, the name of the concubine of Xuanyi Bofu on her head, and forty-three dowry shops in her hands. She married Pei Junlin, who had just passed the children's birth test, and the whole family could only count Pei Pozi, and she still needed to earn face with needlework?
Roman was pulled out by his sister, looked at the table full of sachets and purses, and his eyes widened in shock: "So many, you made it?" ”
Roland looked at his sister proudly and smiled: "If I do more, my sister will be able to do less." ”
Roman's heart was hot, and he held his sister's hand tightly and tightly.
When she raided her home and sold it, if her sister hadn't insisted on notifying her first and then escaping, she would have been hanged by Pei Pozi; My sister will not be caught by the Pei family and commit suicide by hitting the pillar......
Thinking about the past, Roman's eyes were flushed: This time, what sister will fight to protect you!
"What do you guess Big Brother did?"
Seeing that her sister was about to cry with a purse, Roland pulled her sleeve and replied: "I went to Pei Junlin to drink, saying that it was in the fun and the subtleties that I saw the character."
He has to see through Pei Junlin before Xiaoding, so that you don't suffer in the future. ”
Roman was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Pei Junlin grew up in our wine shop, and the eldest brother even had to get drunk for three days even to eat a glass of fruit wine." ”
"Don't be afraid, the eldest brother has invited reinforcements. For this reason, the eldest brother gave away several rare books. ”
Those lonely books were left by the father, and the eldest brother usually didn't let people touch them, so he did the cleaning and drying himself. He is usually drunk in books and doesn't care about the world, but he is not too sick to get off the ground, and he will never delay half a day of study.
This time, because of her, the eldest brother came back from the academy for four days, and he coerced Pei Junlin to play for four days.
Roman remembered his eldest brother's past life again!
The day after she joined the Sect Division, she heard that all the men of the clan were beheaded at the entrance of the vegetable market, their heads rolling everywhere, and blood flowed like a river. Roman didn't see his eldest brother for the last time, and he couldn't help his eldest brother collect his body.
After she was rescued by the king of the county, she begged the king of the county to inquire about the affairs of her eldest brother, but she didn't hear any news. When she took charge of the country and checked from the beginning, she learned that her eldest brother was still writing articles when he was arrested, and he didn't know what happened to Bofu until he died.
The eldest brother who is dedicated to scientific research and shadows his family. After his death, he was exiled to mass graves and eaten by wild dogs.
Roman hurriedly shook his head to drive away the sorrow, she came back, and the tragedy could not come back.
Although she is only eleven years old, she is a little girl who has been trapped in the countryside nunnery with her mother for five or six years. Although it is inconvenient to hinder everything everywhere, Huai Xian said: If you put your heart into everything, you will definitely find a crack.
"What does my sister think?" Roland shook his sister's arm dissatisfiedly, and pouted with a pink mouth: "Since the beginning of the fight, my sister has always been distracted." With Brother Junlin, my sister doesn't even want her brother and sister. ”
"Nonsense!" Roman reached out to scratch Roland's nose: "You are the most important people, more important than life." ”
Roland was about to say more, but a girl came in with a curtain and said, "Miss, Mrs. please come over and talk." ”
Roman nodded and followed the maid out, and the maid bumped Roman's shoulder and winked at her: "Aunt Pei is here, Miss wants to take a look at her mother-in-law." ”
