Chapter 348: Flower Viewing Season (I)
The early spring has just arrived, the buds have not bloomed, Shu'er walked alone in the pleasant garden, saw the hyacinth has broken through the soil, the spring is embellished with golden bones, and the peach blossoms and begonias are no longer dead branches, she can't help but gently stroke the lower abdomen, I don't know when the child in the womb will come to the world.
Since returning to the Song Kingdom, Shu'er has eaten well, slept steadily, and no longer feels dizzy and nauseated, and she even occasionally wonders if there is really a child in her womb. She wanted to go to the outside of the White Jade Palace to find a doctor to check her pulse again, but she finally gave up, afraid that if it was just a dream, it would add to the feeling of loneliness and helplessness.
Calmly, I would rather avoid medical treatment and stubbornly believe that there is indeed our child in the womb, rather than lose any of the slightest involvement with you.
Calmly, are you okay? I dare not inquire about you, and I dare not confide in anyone...... But your life and death are like the child in my womb, if there is nothing.
I have always told myself that not going to Yaowang Mountain to find out your news is the best protection for you and my father-in-law, but in this blue sky and white sun, I have to face my heart calmly. In fact, I was afraid to inquire, and I was afraid that the news I would find out would be a lifetime of regret and a lifetime of lovesickness.
Kill Liu, I can't do it. He thought I was just soft-hearted with my childhood memories, but he didn't know that I was afraid of revenge. If I do not avenge you, you will not die.
Calmly, maybe I have the same disease as your father, King Song Huai. After the Great War of Chen and Song, he ascended the throne of King Zhao and never returned to Song in this life. Presumably, for many years, he has always thought that the person who killed your mother is the power of the Qiao clan of the Song Kingdom, not to mention that the Qiao clan is his maternal clan, he can't do it, even if it is just a relative, he is afraid to face this mortal enemy. Because revenge is tantamount to acknowledging that his beloved has left him forever. But if we don't see it with our own eyes, we don't want to admit it, we don't dare to face it.
But King Zhao is a little easier than me. He has changed his identity to live and live in a different place, maybe the pain of lovesickness will slowly fade away. And me? Not only do I have to live in the White Jade Palace, where we have lived together, and I have to look at things and people all day long, but I also have to dress in a vegan dress so that everyone thinks that I am a widow......
Those people thought that I lived in Liu's dormitory, and I was flattering their Royal Highness King Song, but in this world, apart from myself, who knows the real reason why I stayed in the Bumeng Pavilion? No Dream Pavilion...... It was built by Liu after I left the White Jade Palace when I was a child. There, there are no childhood memories of me and Liu, let alone memories of you and me. Only there can I get a little bit of tranquility, and I can be a little less painful to see things and think about people.
……
Shu'er was twisting a spring bud in a daze, only listening to a few coquettish laughter behind her, like a spring breeze sweeping bells, and spring rain hitting Puyu. Shu'er looked back and saw that the woman was dressed in pink and had a strong smile, so she said: "Ling Meiren is in a good mood, but because your husband abolished Queen Qiao's at the court meeting today and sent her into the cold palace?" ”
Ling Zi smiled: "Sister Dongfang, you are so smart. You're only half right, though. ”
Shu'er's face was expressionless: "I want to hear about it." ”
Ling Zi also reached out to stroke the begonia buds on the branches, and said unhurriedly: "The other half, I am glad that my words back then could harm Qiao to such a situation." When His Highness named her queen, I thought that the higher she climbed, the worse she fell. Unexpectedly, her fall today was without warning, which can be described as even more miserable. And her fall today, calculated carefully, is also due to you, Sister Dongfang. ”
Shu'er nodded and said, "I have always been grateful for the credit, and I will not refuse to come. ”
Ling Zi pretended to be mysterious: "Sister Dongfang, I am your savior." Do you also 'not refuse those who come' to repay your kindness? ”
Shu'er was puzzled: "When did Sister Ling save me?" How do I not know anything? ”
Ling Zi replied: "Back then, when you were in the prison, Qiao pretended to pass the holy decree to General Lu Hui, allowing him to use the torture in the prison on you. If it weren't for the fact that I happened to meet the palace man who reported to her, if I hadn't reported this matter to His Highness in time, His Highness would not have run to save you. Without me, you would have died in prison. You say, "Do I have a life-saving grace for you?" ”
Shu'er clasped her fists at Ling Zi and saluted: "Thank you Sister Ling for saving her back then." I don't know how I can repay you? ”
Ling Zi restrained her smile and said to Shu'er: "I don't ask for much, I just ask you to move out of the Bumeng Pavilion, and don't torture His Highness day after night, day after day." I can tell you don't love him at all. You just want to remind him every day in front of his eyes that he killed your husband and that you can take his life at any time.
My cousin has already told me what His Highness said at the court meeting today. In fact, His Royal Highness is a poor man, he is pure and good by nature, but because of his position, he has to do those treacherous and evil things for the Song Kingdom. You had a brother-sister friendship when you were children, and Your Highness was kind to you to save your life, and he was the father of the child in your womb. You should stop torturing him like this. ”
Shu'er pretended to be puzzled: "How does Sister Ling know that I don't love your husband?" ”
Although Ling Zi looked sweet, she looked sad at this time: "Sister Dongfang, haven't you ever loved King Qi?" Don't you know what love is? If you really love Your Highness, will you still dress another man every day, but you will always appear in front of His Highness and instruct him to cook for you? ”
Shu'er said coldly: "Then tell me, what is love?" ”
Ling Zi sighed lightly, pondered for a moment, but smiled again: "If a woman really loves a man, she will ask for very little and be content and happy. I don't want him to be warm, I don't blame him for being indifferent, I just want to be with him for a long time in a position not far away. Even if he loves someone else, or even has a child with someone else, this woman will love the house and Wu, save the people he loves, and not hurt their children. ”
Shu'er couldn't help but pity this delicate little woman, and her tone was gentle: "Are you the one who loves the house and the Wu?" ”
Ling Zi nodded. "Sister Dongfang, Your Highness treats you as he does to Song Guo, trusting him with his life, even disregarding morality and etiquette. Since you can't kill him with a single knife and avenge the King of Qi, why bother to torture him? People live for a lifetime, love is love, and not love is not love. Hate will kill, and if you can't do it, you should put it down in time. For others and for oneself, it is the sea and the sky. ”
Shu'er pretended to be disdainful and said: "If you are really the one who loves the house and Wu, why are you so happy after Liu is abolished?" ”
Ling Zi replied with a smile: "His Royal Highness doesn't love Qiao at all, let alone love, he doesn't even bother to talk to her." I'm glad because I'm glad for Your Highness! ”
