Chapter Twenty-Nine: Those Who Meet by Chance Depart

The cold rain has been pouring from the Mid-Autumn Festival to Chongyang, the atmosphere in the palace is depressing, everything in Chongyang is simple, and the West Palace, which I thought was full of people, became more and more deserted.

Min Xing has not gone out for more than a month, since the Mid-Autumn Festival, the temperament has become more and more cold and silent, in addition to writing poetry every day, most of the time she leans on the long couch in front of the window to read, silent, even Rong Guifei was blocked.

Xiao Yue came every day, or sat with her for a while, or had a meal, no matter what he said, he was silent, Xiao Yue didn't care, he still came every day.

Because Minxing promised the royal family of the previous dynasty and the Northern Dynasty, although he later became the lord of the county, his identity was also very embarrassing. She was actually very lonely when she was a child, and only a few people in Zhaoning Lingbi were close to her since she was a child.

Xiao Yue knows it, so he can only love her more to offset those coldness.

But now Lingbi doesn't want her.

Xiao Yue seemed to regard the Lingque Palace as the Chengtian Palace, and asked Xia Yuan to send all the excerpts, except for the last dynasty to stay in the Lingque Palace for most of the day, reading, learning characters, and criticizing the folds, he lived very comfortably.

Lingbi had already moved out of the Lingque Palace, and Concubine Rong had to clean up the side hall where Lingbi lived when she was a child.

This matter is already a well-known secret in the palace, but no one dares to mention it, and there is a little girl who is not long-eyed and whispered that His Majesty is staying in the Lingque Palace again, and it happened to be heard by Lingbi who was passing by, and he was rewarded with twenty sticks and distributed to the Liangless Palace. Twenty sticks are basically abolished, there is no beam hall in and no out, no clothes and no medicine, it used to be the cold palace of the concubines of the former dynasty, and the palace people who were mainly guilty of great crimes after Zhaohou.

After that, no one dared to chew the root of the tongue.

Rong Guifei blamed Lingbi for being too punished, and Lingbi said lightly, "Erchen thinks that if the harem is rectified, it should be killed and punished." ”

"Admittedly, you did the right thing, but I couldn't be ruthless." Rong Guifei sighed.

Cai Kui carefully refilled the tea, accidentally sprinkled a few drops, hurriedly wiped it, and glanced at Lingbi timidly.

Lingbi smiled, "What's wrong with this girl lately?" Always look at people like this, can I eat you? ”

Cai Wei hurriedly quipped, "Cai Kui is very afraid that His Highness will eat her." ”

Lingbi smiled, "I heard that human flesh is sour, I love to eat sour, you should be careful when picking sunflowers." ”

Everyone laughed.

The palace maid reported that Yan Zhaoyi pulled the little prince and Cui Zhaorong over, Rong Guifei hurriedly said Please come in, Yan Zhaoyi has come in, "I don't know what Niangniang said with His Royal Highness, so lively?" "Laugh.

The bamboo branch took the embroidered pier and let the two of them sit, Rong Guifei pointed to Lingbi and held the handkerchief and smiled, "We can get a little soul bi in the future, if she eats human flesh once, we will have a night's sleep." ”

Yan Zhaoyi smiled, "Niangniang teased His Royal Highness again." ”

Rong Guifei hugged Xiao Zhenzhi, the sixth son, and sat on her lap, "Zhenzhi has grown a lot and weighed a lot recently, is it okay to eat and sleep?" ”

Yan Zhaoyi said, "It's all good to have Lao Niangniang care." ”

Rong Guifei was pitiful, "This child is good at everything, but it is too quiet, but unfortunately there are no other children of the same age in the palace to play with the town, I would like to find a boy in the family to read to the town, do you have a good candidate?" ”

Let's look at Cui Zhaorong, "Min Min has never spoken, how can it be as quiet as the town, do you have children of the same age at home?" ”

Cui Min has a quiet personality, gentle and elegant, and has been smiling and watching everyone talk since he entered the door. Hearing Rong Guifei's question, she hurriedly got up and said, "Back to Niangniang, the weak brother in the family is more than seven years old, and he is also very quiet, and he loves to read, so I am afraid it is not suitable to play with the little prince." ”

Several people discussed for a while, but they didn't know who still had school-age children, Lingbi suddenly said, "As far as I know, Gonggong Xie's eldest grandson is less than five years old, and he is very lively. ”

Rong Guifei said happily, "But just mentioned the eldest son of Xie Youyi, the deputy commander of the Southern Army?" ”

"Yes." Lingbi replied.

"Very good, I have the impression that the eldest son of the Xie family has always been seventeen or eighteen years old, and I don't want the children to be four or five years old. I will show your father when I turn around, please thank your family and grandson for entering the palace to read with you. ”

Lingbi got up and said, "Erchen wants to go out of the palace to relax, so he retired first." ”

Xiao Zhenzhi, who was only more than two years old, had been quietly staying in Rong Guifei's arms, and when he saw his sister leaving, he stretched out his little hand to Lingbi, "Sister." ”

Lingbi touched his little head and smiled, "Sister came back and brought you a lot of books." ”

Wandering aimlessly on the street for a long time, I also felt very boring, I used to be tired of shopping on the street and went back to the palace to find Minxing, Minxing doesn't like words, she is a talker, she can keep chattering until dinner, Minxing always listens quietly, says a word or two from time to time, and the time is gone.

In the past, when I went shopping, there was Xiao Hangzhi, Xiao Hangzhi loves to play, and he is interesting together, but it is a pity that Xiao Hangzhi married his daughter-in-law and forgot his buddy.

Han Jin went to Nanqingshan a while ago, saying that he was apprenticed to learn art, but when he left, he had a heavy face, and he said that he would not return if he couldn't learn.

Lingbi glanced at her at that time, Concubine Xie is two generations behind you, I heard that her temper is very tricky and weird, don't be angry and cry!

Xie Ruan Ning didn't make Han Jin angry, Han Jing wanted to cry Xie Ruan Ning angrily.

This child is energetic, too noisy, and tireless in watching drama books night after night. Fortunately, she is finally going to be sent back to the capital, and when she returns to Nanshan, she must have a good night's sleep.

Han Jin, who saw her sisters outside the car window, urged her to stop the carriage and jumped out of the car in high spirits.

Han Jin said, "Hold the claws." ”

Lingbi said, "Bumper hooves." ”

The two men happily bumped fists.

Xie Ruan Ning covered his face in the carriage and glanced at it lightly, the young man came over and was slightly surprised when he saw her.

Xie Ruan Ning was also quite surprised, he didn't expect to meet Qiao Su here. This kid absolutely lied to her.

What Qiao Su, it must be the son of the king and grandson.

Qiao Su just wanted to say something, Xie Ruan Ning urged the carriage to go quickly, Qiao Su only saw that the curtain of the carriage was lowered, and the carriage had run away as soon as the light dust swept by.

Han Jin asked, "Brother, where did you come back from?" ”

"Nanshan."

When she arrived at Gantang Palace, Concubine Rong was already waiting outside the palace gate, Su Yao helped the second lady, and before she could walk over, Concubine Rong had already greeted her and said with a smile, "Concubine has worked hard all the way." ”

Xie Ruan Ning said, "It's okay." ”

The two entered the hall and sat down opposite each other, and Rong Guifei asked, "The concubine will go back today?" ”

Xie Ruan Ning floated the tea and said slowly, "Naturally, I want to go back." Come today, but see Min Xing's side. ”

Concubine Rong sighed abruptly, "I'm afraid the concubine is going to be disappointed." ”

Xie Ruan Ning said, "It's okay. He got up.

Before the cup of tea was finished, Xie Ruanning was about to leave, and Concubine Rong instructed Zhuzhi to take the two of them over.

When I went to Lingque Palace, I passed by the agarwood pond and saw the Eternal Palace where I once lived.

After stopping for a while, Xie Ruan Ning pointed to the palace gate and said to Su Yao, "Look, there must be flowers and plants buried inside, and dust on the doors and windows." ”

Su Yao helped Xie Ruan Ning away, "Girl, don't look at it." ”

When they arrived at the gate of the Lingque Palace, the bamboo branch knocked on the door, and the voice of the little inner supervisor came from the door, "Who is it?" ”

Zhuzhi said, "Concubine Xie came to see the county lord." ”

Hearing the voice of the bamboo branch, the little inner eunuch opened the door of the palace and said apologetically, "The county lord is gone, sister." ”

Zhuzhi said, "When you go back, you will say that Concubine Xie is here." ”

The three of them stood outside the door for a while, and the little inner supervisor led Taxue and Mama Song to hurry over, Mama Song was the old man of Xie Mansion, and when she saw the second miss, tears flowed out, "Second miss." ”

Xie Ruan Ning nodded slightly and smiled, "Mama Song." ”

Mama Song looked carefully at the old master in front of her, nodded incessantly, choked up and said, "Second Miss is not old. ”

led the way in front of the snow, Xie Ruan Ning and others followed, "Mama is forty." ”

Mama Song said, "Isn't it?" Next month will be a full forty. ”

Ning Zhu helped Min Xing to come over, and when she saw Xie Ruanning, she bent her knees, Xie Ruan Ning looked at her with a sick face, and hurriedly stopped her with a fan, "No need to be polite." ”

Min Xing's face was pale, and he forced a smile, "I've been uncomfortable lately, and I've been rude." ”

The two sat at the small stone table in the courtyard, speechless for a long time, or Xie Ruan Ning spoke first, "But someone is embarrassed for you?" ”

Min Xingzheng lowered his head and frowned, and when he heard Xie Ruan Ning ask, he shook his head slightly, "I won't go out again." ”

Xie Ruan Ning carefully looked at the person in front of him, and thought to himself that no wonder Xiao Yue was reluctant to send him to the north, such a beautiful woman with blue wind and lotus bones, Chu Chu is moving, I feel pity, not to mention Xiao Yue, a beast who eats people and does not spit out bones.

Xie Ruanning leaned on the table, played with the fan, and said lightly, "I have spent ten years on the mountain, but I am not without insight, there are a few Buddhist scriptures that say very well, I will tell you about it." ”

"Like a river flowing, it goes and does not return, human life is like this, and the deceased does not return. Ten years in an instant, they all said that I don't see old age, how can I not be old. Those who come are not happy, they are not worried, they are not stained and they are worry-free, and their hearts are silent. ”

"All love will be due to karma. Fate comes and goes, fate gathers and disperses, fate arises and falls, fate falls and perishes, and all laws are fate. What about life, it's just fate pushing forward, I used to feel sorry for myself, but now I want to open it, and the meeting will leave. So, you don't have to rush either. After speaking, he chuckled, and his fingertips brushed the fan surface, and his muscles were cold.

As he was talking, his footsteps sounded softly, and Xie Ruan Ning didn't have to look back to know that it was Xiao Yue coming.

Xiao Yue sat down by himself and poured himself a cup of tea, "I just came in and listened to you talk about Zen, well, you have had a lot of epiphany." ”

Xie Ruan Ning glanced at him lightly, ten years have passed, this beast is still handsome, so jealous and angry.

Xiao Yue said, "Tell me, what else have you realized?" ”

Xie Ruan Ning played with a fan and smiled, "People who love love are like holding on to distance, and going against the wind will definitely burn their hands." After a pause, he added, "When karma meets, the retribution will be repaid." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yue chuckled, "I don't believe in gods and Buddhas, I don't believe in reincarnation, you don't have to choke me." ”

Xie Ruan Ning smiled, "I know you don't believe it, but I still want to remind you that the body is still untied, but the heart is not free, and the heart is bound by desire, and it often suffers from all kinds of troubles." ”

Xiao Yue was noncommittal, his eyes fell on the fan in her hand, he looked at it fixedly, stretched out his hand and said, "Take it and let me see." ”

Xie Ruanning looked at the fan in his hand and didn't want to hand it to him.

Xiao Yue couldn't help but take it from her hand, stared at it for a moment, and said, "This style of painting is familiar." ”

Xie Ruan Ning took it from his hand and said lightly, "It's almost noon, I'm back." ”

Xiao Yue's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he grabbed her sleeve, "Who drew it." ”

Xie Ruan Ning gently pulled it open, "A little friend." ”

Xiao Yue didn't speak again, seeing that Qingli figure Shi Shiran left, Min Xing listened to the two of them fighting for a long time, didn't say a word, chewed Concubine Xie's words carefully, and felt quite embarrassed.

Seeing that Concubine Xie was leaving, Min Xing was about to get up, but Xiao Yue grabbed her, "Don't worry about her." ”
