Chapter 200: Dark Incense Floats (I)
Seeing that her mother was so persistent, Shu'er couldn't help but feel distressed: "Mother, Shu'er is back." β
Lin Long felt that Shu'er's voice was weak, and knew that although she woke up, she was indeed seriously injured and her heart was damaged, so he helped her lie down again, and said, "Shu'er, when you are healed, we will go back to Chu together, and together with your father, help your uncle King Sheng, unify Chu Realm, and reopen Zhaohuang." β
After Shu'er lay down, Fang caught a glimpse of the Shu embroidered silk handkerchief that her mother had placed on the ground beside her. Shu'er looked at the silk handkerchief, her face was a little hot, and she said in a low voice: "Mother...... I made my own decisions without your permission and married ......" I wanted to say that it was the "leader of the Restoration Alliance", but when I saw that my mother's face suddenly darkened, I said: "Married to ...... The young master of the Zhuge family. β
Lin Long glared at Shu'er, but he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, although his face was gloomy, his tone was quite gentle: "If that kid is just the young master of the Zhuge family, he can barely be worthy of my daughter." Speaking of which, my mother and your father have been familiar with that kid's father-in-law Zhuge since they were young. At that time, my father was still alive. My father likes to be extravagant, likes to feast and drink, and often holds banquets in Zhaohuang Palace. His children, including the current Seven Kings of Chu, including Queen Chen's mother, our eldest sister, and me, the ninth sister, often gather in the Zhaohuang Palace to eat, drink and have fun, without restraint. In addition to his children and the warblers and Yanyan in the harem, his father often invited civil and military officials, as well as the largest merchant in Chu State, the lord of the Zhuge family, and the stepfather who escaped. β
Shu'er opened her eyes with curiosity, thinking that her mother and father had known her father-in-law early on, and her marriage with Congrong was really destined.
Lin Long continued: "Your uncle and I were able to meet your father, in fact, thanks to Master Zhuge . In the autumn of that year, Master Zhuge took two teenagers into the palace for a banquet together, one was his newly adopted son, Zhuge escaped, and the other was also the child that Lord Zhuge helped to take care of, that is, your father, Dongfang Yu. β
Shu'er was puzzled: "Could it be that my father was also raised by Master Zhuge ? Then why didn't you choose my father as the young master of the Zhuge family, but chose my father-in-law...... Ahem, chose the current Zhuge Island Master? β
Lin Long said: "Because your father is not an orphan, but a trace." The previous owners of the Zhuge family must be orphans. Your grandfather's name is Dongfang Creek, the stream of the stream, is a famous master of calligraphy and painting in Yuling, and has painted a complete set of "Chu Yue Landscape Map", a total of 300 sheets, Zhang Zhang is worth 10,000 gold. He also compiled a "Walking Trail of Chu Yue", written for travelers who like to travel in the mountains and rivers. Master Zhuge and your grandfather were best friends when they were young. Your grandfather was old and had children, and your father died before he reached the age of the weak crown. Your grandmother's surname is Yu, and she is a descendant of the old Yue royal family. She also died sadly shortly after your grandfather's death. So your father has been taken care of by Master Zhuge since then, and he has also become close friends with Trace. β
Although Shu'er was a little tired, she liked to listen to the old pastβthe past of her mother and father, and the past of them and her stepfather. Shu'er reluctantly opened her eyes and asked, "So my mother fell in love with my father at first sight at that time, in Zhaohuang Palace?" β
Lin Long's smile is gentle and sweet, like a girl whose heart has just moved. She nodded, "Yes." At that time, I was going to a banquet with my brother, and we met Master Zhuge and your father under the oldest and largest ginkgo tree in Zhaohuang Palace. The ginkgo biloba leaves in Zhaohuang Palace are like golden fans all over the sky, and your father is dressed in white, and his belt is the same color as the blue sky in autumn. β
Shu'er recalled the appearance of the Oriental Adult, gentle and elegant, calm and relaxed, when he was young, he should indeed be a jade-faced young man who captured his heart and was as easy as a hand. Although Shu'er was sleepy, she still looked at Lin Long with a smile and asked, "Then why didn't my mother fall in love with the Lord of Zhuge Island at that time, but fell in love with my father?" β
Lin Long pursed his lips and smiled, saying, "Because he doesn't smile, and your father, with gentle eyebrows and eyes, can always make people feel like a spring breeze." In fact, if it weren't for the neighboring Song Guoqiang, my father was afraid that the Song State would attack the Chu State in the future, and he would not let me marry here. Your grandmother, who was one of the two queens of the Chu State at that time, was very fond of your father. She told me that as long as it is someone I like, even if it is a prodigal son, she will not stop it. It's a pity that your grandmother died early, and I kept filial piety for her, so I had to wait until the filial piety period expired before I could propose marriage to my father. But before the filial piety period expired, I waited for the marriage letter of the Song Kingdom. β
Shu'er sighed secretly, and her voice gradually weakened in sleepiness and pain: "Mother...... Although you are not married to your father, you are loving and loving, and you have a pair of loveliest children. Mother, tell me the story of you and your father when you were young......"
Lin Long saw Shu'er slowly close her eyes, so she spoke at a soothing pace as if she had told her daughter a bedtime story when she was a child, not in a hurry or slow-
Shu'er, in the autumn of that year, under the ginkgo tree in Zhaohuang Palace, a young man named Dongfang Yu said to me with a smile: "I have the same surname as my uncle and Escape. β
I looked up at him with disdain and deliberately provoked: "What's so great about the surname Fu?" My surname is 'Shuangmulin', and I am the most honorable surname in the Chu State. Didn't you look at the word 'Chu', it's a 'double wood forest'? β
My brother walked in front with Master Zhuge and the three of them, and the young man in white and I were arguing and falling behind.
He smiled and said: "I heard that the nine princesses of Chu State have a single name of the word 'Long', otherwise, I will call you 'Shuangmu Long'?" 'Mu Mu Long'? β
So, that young man called me "Mumu" for the rest of my life......
Every time Master Zhuge enters the palace, even if he doesn't come, the young man who calls me "Mumu" will definitely follow. Every time I entered the palace, he brought me a lot of interesting things from outside the palace. He also gave me a painting of "Yuling Mountain Stream" from his father's "Chuyue Landscape Map". He was under the ginkgo tree, and while letting me appreciate the "Yuling Mountain Stream", he read to me the "Yuling Chapter" in "Chu Yue's Walking".
He said that if I could go to Yuling with him one day, he would definitely take me to see these scenery.
But I haven't been to Yuling yet.
Your father's piano playing is not as good as mine, but his painting skills are very good in his father's true biography. He begged me to play the harp, and I did, and he sat down and painted a picture of me.
He painted a lot of small portraits of me. Some gave it to me, some didn't.
From autumn to spring, the ginkgo biloba leaves have fallen, the catkins have also flown away, although he and I have not seen much, but we admire each other and make a private life.
He said, when I reach the age of sixteen, I will ask Master Zhuge to help him ask the King of Chu and ask to marry the ninth princess.
Later, I had no choice but to marry the Song Kingdom. He knew that I was more sad than anyone else, so he didn't show his sadness, but followed me all the way to the Song Palace. I had a round house with King Song Huai, King Song Huai was drunk and didn't come, and the person who lifted my red silk hijab quietly slipped into the Song Palace...... The boy who called me "Mumu".
Lin Long saw that Shu'er was sleeping sweetly, and his heart was suddenly warm. If you want to chat about "The Ups and Downs of the Nations" with more like-minded people, follow "Hot Network or rd444" on WeChat to chat about your favorite books with more book friends
