Chapter 242: Chu Huainan's Death
As soon as she cried, the other girls couldn't help but cry.
For a while, the girls who wanted to go out of the palace and go home accounted for the majority.
The remaining few, represented by Chen Xiaoxue and Zhuang Xia sisters, stood hesitantly in place, with a pair of beautiful eyes still secretly peeping at Xiao Yi, as if to gauge whether they could have a place in his backyard.
Nan Baoyi is used to being stingy.
Danfeng's eyes were full of blackness, she took off the light pink tie of the dressing skirt, carefully wrapped it around Xiao Yi's wrist, and tied a beautiful bow generously.
She stared coldly at Chen Xiaoxue and the others, and raised her white and tender chin arrogantly: "This man is mine." If you want to rob it, just come and rob it. If you can snatch it, you have the ability! ”
After speaking, he pulled the strap and led Xiao Yi away like a dog.
Chen Xiaoxue watched her walk away, her face full of disbelief.
Nan Baoyi is so bold, isn't she afraid that His Royal Highness King Yong will be angry?!
His Royal Highness King Yong's spoiled and gentle expression is really annoying!
They nestled in their bellies full of fire, stood in the breeze of dusk for a long time, and finally gradually realized that Xiao Yi was not someone they could touch.
That man is different from other powerful people, he doesn't love three wives and four concubines, and he doesn't love Yingying Yanyan.
He really wants to be with Nan Baoyi, a couple for the rest of his life......
Zhuang Xia twisted his little face, and his tone could not hide his sourness: "Nanbao's life is really good, she is obviously from a merchant, but she can be favored by His Royal Highness King Yong...... We're going to be miserable, Your Majesty has been deposed, let's either go to the cold palace or go home and get married. What an unwillingness! ”
Chen Xiaoxue tugged at her handkerchief.
Until Xiao Yi's back disappeared from her field of vision, she still didn't retract her gaze.
Who can be willing?
I have admired such an amazing and brilliant man, how can I admire ordinary scholars again?
Zhuang Qiu said timidly: "Sisters, what should we do next?" ”
Chen Xiaoxue lowered her head sadly.
Tears fell on the embroidered upper one by one, she wiped her tears, and said softly: "I don't want to stay in the palace anymore, I plan to go home and get married." Even if you can't marry the right one, it's good to keep the spring flowers and autumn moon and read His Royal Highness King Yong. ”
The women looked sad and nodded in approval.
For a time, all the concubines in the Chu Palace dispersed.
The palace ladies also received a large amount of compensation money and could return to their hometowns.
The eunuchs took the silver money and remembered Gu Chongshan, the former governor of Xichang, so they went to the Northern Wei Dynasty together, intending to continue to be loyal to him.
However, in just half a month, the former prosperous and majestic palace no longer has the liveliness of the silk bamboo orchestra, and many palaces in remote locations are even inaccessible and overgrown with weeds, as if they are abandoned.
Nan Baoyi is very idle.
Either stay in the regent's palace to play with Ah Weak, or go out of the palace to participate in the poetry and camellia banquet held by the nobles of Shengjing City, because of his lively temperament, he has made a lot of handkerchiefs, and his popularity is very good.
It was dusk.
She rode back to the Regent's Palace, where lotus leaves waited for her to have dinner in the flower hall.
She picked up the chopsticks: "Won't the second brother come back for dinner tonight?" ”
"There are a few officials from the southwest region, and they are discussing in the imperial study." Lotus leaves cloth vegetables for her, "The slave maid heard that now South Vietnam is changing all kinds of official systems up and down, inside and out, and His Highness is very busy." ”
Nan Baoyi nodded understandingly.
There is no South Vietnam in the world.
In the past, the twelve major counties of South Vietnam were all incorporated into the territory of Dayong, and Shengjing City, as the accompanying capital, no longer assumed the responsibility of the capital, and these county guards were to have direct contact with Chang'an in the future, and the second brother arranged them, which is beyond reproach.
She had dinner alone, washed and bathed.
Sitting on the chaise longue and applying pearl paste to the calf, the lotus leaf came in with a flower cake: "Is the princess hungry?" The kitchen delivered freshly made snacks, and they were still warm. ”
Nan Baoyi looked.
The porcelain plate with golden lotus leaves on high legs is delicate and intricate, and it contains various colorful flower cakes arranged beautifully, which is very precious and delicious.
Her gaze suddenly fell on one of them.
She reached out and picked it up, staring at it for a long time, but she didn't put it into her mouth.
Lotus Ye smiled: "This is the dragon beard cake made by the chef, the slave maid specially instructed them, the princess was afraid of caries, and told them to put less sugar." Do you like it or not? ”
Nan Baoyi didn't taste it.
She put the dragon beard cake into the lotus porcelain plate, got up and put on the skirt, and said with a smile: "When I see the dragon beard cake, I think of an old man, I don't know how he ...... now."
As he spoke, Cloud Sleeve hurried in from outside.
She said respectfully: "Princess, there is news from the cold palace, and Chu Huainan is gone." Now the palace is looking for people, and the ten bitter guards have sent a message back, saying that Chu Huainan may hate His Royal Highness and the princess, and told the princess not to go out easily at night. ”
Nan Baoyi was stunned.
Lotus Ye stomped his feet and scolded: "He has become a lost dog, why is he still restless?!" If he dares to mess with the princess, I, I want his life! ”
She was so angry that she picked up a handful of golden scissors and clicked into the air.
Nan Baoyi raised her hand to hold the lotus leaf's hand and motioned for her to put down the scissors.
She straightened out the waterfall green silk that fell under her waist, and Danfeng had more care in her eyes.
It's night.
On an early summer night, the sky is full of stars and the cool breeze is like water.
Nan Baoyi carried the palace lamp, left the regent palace alone, and quietly went in the direction of the Zangjing Pavilion.
The deep palace is lonely.
Most of the palace maids and eunuchs dispersed, and the whole palace was as cold as a tomb in the middle of the night, and the towering palaces stood in the dark like monsters.
To the southwest, the Pavilion has long been burned to the ground.
In the distance, Nan Baoyi saw a figure sitting on the ruins, looking up at the moon.
Approaching, she held up the palace lamp and shone it out.
The man wore a moon-white brocade robe, with a hosta and a hairpin, describing him as thin.
The only remaining right eye reflects a bright moon, which is particularly moist and lonely.
It's Chu Huainan.
She lifted her voluminous tulle skirt and slowly climbed the tall ruins.
Chu Huainan stared at Mingyue and said in a low voice: "I went to Shu County with my father, vaguely just yesterday. The bright moon in Shu County that year seemed to be more brilliant than tonight. ”
"The bright moon has always been the bright moon." Nan Baoyi whispered, "What has changed is His Highness's heart." ”
"Is that so?"
Chu Huainan raised his hand and gently placed it in his heart.
After a long time, he shook his head and smiled, and then turned to Nan Baoyi: "I smelled the smell of dragon beard cake, but the little county lord brought it?" ”
Nan Baoyi took out the brown paper bag from the wide sleeve.
Chu Huainan took it.
Unwrapping the paper bag, the dragon beard cake presents a golden yellow color, which looks very delicate and delicate.
He looked at it for a moment, picked up a piece, and gently put it in his mouth.
Dragon's beard cake melts in your mouth.
Chu Huainan finished eating half of the piece, and laughed at himself: "In my life, I have done a lot of things wrong and hurt many people...... Little county lord, will a person like me, after death, go to hell? ”
Nan Baoyi replied categorically: "Yes." ”
Chu Huainan was silent for a moment, and tears flowed out.
