Chapter 39: Spring Heart
"Chen Huoshu asks to see." A man's voice sounded outside the door, and Sang Ma heard that it was Huo Shu, and looked at me indicatively, and when he saw me nodding, he opened the door and let him in.
Looking at the man in official uniform in front of him, he glanced at Bai Zhi's shy face again, and asked funny, "Guard Huo, what else is the matter?" ”
"The minister is guilty." After he finished speaking, he immediately clenched his fists and knelt down, "Please punish the mother." ”
I was also taken aback, and asked, "What is the crime of Huo Guard?" ”
"The minister is incompetent, and he didn't handle the matter just now, which disturbed the mother." Huo Shu lowered his head, and he couldn't see his expression clearly, but he had always known the rules of self-denial and etiquette, and he hadn't looked at me for a moment since he came in just now.
pondered for a while, there was no need to punish this kind of thing, he actually took the initiative to invite guilt, he was also a smart person, he wanted to say that it was okay, but looking at Bai Zhi's worried face, he wanted to make a bad one, "That's right, the main palace that was arguing just now was almost pricked by an embroidery needle." Seeing that he didn't speak, he paused and continued, "It's not a capital crime, then let's go and suffer thirty boards, as a leader, you can't even take care of your own subordinates, what do you want." ”
Huo Shu hesitated a little when he heard my words, but he still replied loudly, "Yes, obey the order!" ”
These thirty boards are not a small punishment, the average person is about to break his muscles and bones, although he is a person who practices martial arts, but these thirty boards don't want half of his life.
Bai Zhi pressed Huo Shu's shoulder as he was about to get up, knelt in front of me and pleaded, "Master, Kai Grace, I'm afraid this will kill people." ”
Seeing this, Sang Ma couldn't figure out what I meant, so he immediately reprimanded Bai Zhi coldly, "When did you become so ignorant of the rules, get up quickly." ”
Huo Shu also raised his head violently, pulled the corner of Bai Zhi's clothes, and whispered, "Zhi'er, get up quickly, don't make Niangniang angry." I deserve it. ”
"I don't. Brother Huo, this matter has nothing to do with you, it's all to blame on those reckless people. Bai Zhi turned to look at Huo Shu, slapped his hand away, and then turned to me crying and said, "Niangniang, please be merciful, the slave is willing to serve the cow and the horse." He kept kowtowing and slamming his head on the floor.
"Zhi'er." Huo Shu looked at Bai Zhi, her eyes were also wet, and she looked at me pleadingly, "Please don't blame Zhi'er, she is also worried that the minister will be rude." ”
The two of them look like this, they really look like hard-working mandarin ducks, they just wanted to tease Bai Zhi, but they didn't want to try to find out that the two people were actually in love, so it was naturally better.
"What do I want so many cows and horses for, Zhi'er, get up." Bai Zhi was a little surprised when she heard me say this, but she still stood up obediently, after all, the master's order could not be disobeyed, seeing that she stopped crying, I continued, "Huo Guards don't need to take the board anymore, in exchange for punishment, you will take care of Bai Zhi for the rest of your life for the palace." ”
"Mother's ......"
"Mother's ......"
Hearing this, the two of them wanted to speak in unison, and they really looked like lovers with a good heart and a tacit understanding.
I smiled, got up from the stool, and took Sang Ma's hand, "Didn't you say that the flowers in the backyard of the post house were blooming just right in the morning?" Take a look with the main shrine. Sang Ma looked at me in some surprise, and secretly squeezed her hand, this girl is also smart, and immediately spoke, "Yes, I saw that acacia flowers blooming just right in the morning, and the slave maid accompanied the mother to watch." ”
"Mother, I'll go too." Seeing me like this, Bai Zhi blushed again, but there were still tears hanging from it, and she said cautiously.
I pulled Sang Ma to the door and said softly to them, "Don't follow this palace, if you leave, this punishment of Huo Guard's punishment will not be completed." After that, he didn't bother anymore, leaving two stunned lovers and Sang Ma downstairs.
Although this post station is small, I don't want the backyard but it is very big, and the flowers in the yard are not precious, but they are also luxuriant. I asked Sang Ma to take a bamboo basket, ready to pick some petals for bathing at night, the sun at the end of summer, not as hot as a few days ago, but Sang Ma still followed me with an umbrella.
I told Sang Ma to hold an umbrella in summer, although this oil-paper umbrella is not as effective as a parasol, but it is always good to cover it.
The flowers I picked were all low potted flowers, which grew on the acacia trees and hung high on the branches, but I felt that they were out of reach. The floral fragrance of the acacia is clear and mellow, which can completely mask the smell of these potted flowers! This tree full of acacia flowers reminds me of the acacia trees in the whole courtyard of the Queen's Palace, and it also reminds me of those people in the palace, I wonder if they are doing well and whether they will miss me.
Picked a basket full of petals, stood up and was still a little dizzy, pulled Sang Ma to sit down on the stone bench by the flower bed to rest, from just now in the house, her mood was not high, I don't know if I think of Qi Hao again.
"Sang Ma, do you think of him?" I took her hand and asked, Fu Xia Qi This girl's hands are cold.
When Sang Ma heard me ask, he was like a frightened bird, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his head and said sullenly, "The slave doesn't dare to overstep." ”
"I know you're bitter, do you really have to be him?"
"Master, slave maid......" Her eyes turned red instantly, her expression was sad and tenacious, which made me feel distressed, and the tears that broke the thread fell on the back of my hand one by one.
"You are all so infatuated, why bother." Her current appearance reminds me of Qi Hao's expression at that time, he also looked at me like this, he was also painful in his heart at that time, but what did I do, blame him loudly, and asked him, is this self too ruthless.
I didn't know how to comfort her, just like I didn't know how to comfort Qi Hao in the first place. I feel sorry for her, and I feel sorry for Qi Hao, the child who has been silently good to me for six years, the child who has been good to me but refuses to admit it, but what can I do.
A heart is so big, how can it accommodate two people, if there is no Ziqing, maybe I can't bear to refuse a person like him. Now, I chose to leave, for myself, for Ziqing, and for him, I am afraid, afraid that if I continue to entangle, I will never recover.
can only sit quietly with Sang Ma, this girl is always like this, she holds everything in her heart, suffers herself, and she doesn't want to tell anyone, she doesn't want to talk about it, if it goes on like this, I'm really afraid that she will get sick sooner or later, and now looking at this appearance, I'm afraid that she is too affectionate for Qi Hao, and she can't extricate herself at all.
I'm an outsider, I can't say much, I can only accompany her, I hope time can heal, after all, time is the best medicine for emotional wounds, this trip to Liangzhou and back, it will take more than half a year, and going out for a walk should help her.
