Chapter 139: White Vinegar

also said how to be careful all the way, celebrating the birthday of the late emperor of the previous dynasty, and if he was caught in the current dynasty, he would lose his head. As a result, it was not bad, and as soon as he came up, he crashed into the main owner.

So there was a moment of dead silence on the jade platform. No one spoke, no one moved first, almost all the undercurrents were condensed on Zhao Yin, and the evening breeze was blowing, making people's hearts shake.

After a long time, Zhao Yin lifted the glass lamp, reflecting the brick floor in front of him, and it was also good melons, fruits, wine and meat, and a birthday banquet.

"Tonight, no matter the monarch or the previous dynasty, just talk about Xiao Erlang's old man, sit down and celebrate his birthday together." Zhao Yin sighed lightly, "He should too, thirty-nine." ”

The last sentence made everyone put down the mustard and sit down on the jade platform.

Yes, if that person is still there, it should be thirty-nine.

He used to be the old people in the years, and he was full of snow in the world for a year, but he was alone in hell every year and the mud burned his bones, and April did not come, and May did not come.

Maybe when he looked up, the vast mountains and seas became kings and defeated people, and these endless sorrows and joys for hundreds of generations of society didn't matter to him.

It's like watching the pictures in the marquee when I was a child, birth, old age, sickness, death, laughing and scolding, and it passed in the blink of an eye.

It's like a dream, and it's all over the place.

Everyone on the jade platform took out the wine and food they brought, and set up a table on the spot, a number of dishes, a pot of thin wine, and a glass lamp orange.

There is an empty pair of bowls and chopsticks at the top, no one, and the night settles to the bottom of the bowl, and it is cold.

Cheng Yingyu poured wine for this empty seat, then raised his glass and saluted everyone: "Today, my monarch's birthday, if you don't get drunk, you won't return!" ”

Everyone raised their glasses and drank them all, Cheng Yingyu moved his wrist slightly, poured the cup of wine that no one drank, and made a fine mark on the brick floor, and invited the old man to drink it full.

She watched as the wine soaked into the cracks in the brick floor, as if it had flowed through eight hundred miles of rivers and mountains, and then went to the endless yellow spring, where there was him, holding the wine cup in his hand, and pouring it little by little.

He looked up at her through the desolate world.

It was still a pale and gentle smile, as bright as a smile that did not belong to the prison he was in, but there were fine wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

"The flowers have grown."

Cheng Yingbu heard him say this clearly, and in the darkness and coldness of the eternal night, he smiled at her, and there was light in his eyes.

"Your Majesty...... Old. ”

The woman said softly, unsteadily.

Then the man drank it all, and his figure gradually disappeared into the night, so that there was only a trace of wine in the jade brick ground in front of him, and there was no endless eternal night, and there was no more light.

Cheng Ying took a deep breath, poured the wine and looked up, she drank a little hurriedly, and her blurred vision traced back to time.

……

Yes, back then, on his and her birthdays, there was always a piece of celebration in the palace, and it was in the Calyx Xianghui Building, and the lights of the Ten Mile Palace were like day.

He and she sat side by side on this jade platform, one big and one small, one tall and one short, like two Fuwa, accepting the congratulations of the ministers.

He would pour himself a glass of wine, toast her, turn his head to look at her, and smile at her, his brows and eyes curled brighter than the moon in the night sky.

"Happy birthday, flowers."

As soon as he drank it all, Su Ri's pale face because of serious illness would rise with a shallow flush, and then he coughed so hot from the wine that the imperial doctor rushed up, and he retreated, saying that anyone who mentioned unlucky words such as "medicine", "illness" and "medicine" would be punished with alcohol.

Then he was always very looking forward to it, brought her the wine, and urged her to drink it repeatedly, with a clean and secretly nervous look in his eyes.

And she never noticed this bit of play, she drank it all with a smile, and then the next moment her eyebrows and nose were sour.

White vinegar.

Immediately he laughed loudly, his body arched with laughter, his pale face flushed, and the unexpectedly beautiful color of blood made his whole body radiant, as if everything could be fine.

Where is there an emperor who carries everything, only a child who succeeds in mischief.

So she fell into such a smile, bright, vivid, innocent, like the starlight blooming on the top of the mountains in the evening breeze in the night, lighting up this obscure world.

It's beautiful.

Only once in a year is he "presumptuous" to her, but also to himself.

So her silence always made him think that she was angry, and tried to hold back a smile to comfort her, half joking and half serious.

"Flowers, I didn't like to celebrate birthdays before. The fate that has been predetermined to have an ending, every time it is celebrated, it is going to the end...... Endless night and cold, who would want it? ”

After a pause, he couldn't hold back his laughter, so he had to pinch his face while reluctantly saying to his little queen.

"But since I met you in this life, I have celebrated my birthday again...... Because of joy, I have flowers every year after year, and I still have flowers in the coming days...... What a joy. ”

In the night, under the starlight, in the confusion of the lights of the mountain palace, she heard such words, and she was willing to pour a pot of white vinegar.

She was really happy.

Because, you can still see him laughing like this.

……

Cheng Ying took a cup into her throat, the fiery spiciness, she coughed lightly, it was a strong aroma of wine, mellow, not sour at all.

No one will change her wine for white vinegar anymore.

So she couldn't see that smile anymore.

She never had time to tell him, she knew that from the first year of his strange nervousness, she had noticed that there was "fraud" in the wine, but she still drank it all.

Three years, three whole years, this prank lasted for three years, every year he never got tired of playing, every year she pretended not to know, so sour that her stomach and stomach were twisted.

Then the smile of the man next to her made her read it to this day.

Year after year, year after year, she is still tossing and turning in the world, but he has gone to the spring to be cold.

Flower.

He called her, in the dark, the mountains and rivers were lonely.

"Drink slowly. This wine is strong, try some pickles? Zhao Xixing's voice came, and a hand naturally stroked her back and patted her slowly, "Even if you are sad and reminiscent of the past, don't be angry with your body." ”

Cheng Ying's face was hot, and he hurriedly turned sideways: "They and your father are all watching." Hands and feet, drunk high? ”

"The main hall is going to drink high...... Zhao Xixing hooked the corners of his lips, and when he got closer, his voice was slightly hoarse, "It's more than that." ”

Cheng Ying's face flushed to her neck. secretly pulled the man's arm, and the latter gasped in pain: "If you dare to be unruly, I'm yelling?!" Look at how you saint step down. ”

Zhao Xixing had to retract his hand, lay a glass of wine, moved his wrist, and leaned on the ground with a thin trace: "Minister, Zhao Xixing, the eldest son of the right minister, congratulations on Your Majesty's happy birthday!" ”

Immediately, the man drank three whites in a row, his eyes were drunk, and he stared at Cheng Yingyu leisurely: "...... Mandarin duck, what do you think of me? In front of him today, can you give me a clear word? ”

Cheng Yingyu was so frightened that he was about to cover his mouth, glanced at Zhao Yin, and said in a low voice: "It's really high?" What nonsense?! ”
