Chapter 95: The Price
This night, many people did not fall asleep.
In Jingyu Palace, Concubine Jing tossed and turned on the bed, a rare "unruly".
Mama Shu stayed by the bedside, her eyes were helpless and happy, the last time Miss did this kind of behavior was in the boudoir.
It's a pity that he later entered the palace, and he was strict and rigid, and he was more etiquette and standardized than those who raised grandmothers in the palace.
Mama Shu said loudly: "Miss." ”
Concubine Jing couldn't sleep, so she simply sat up, frowned, and said, "Bai Ying's girl, I'm afraid that she is like a fish in water in the National Teacher Tower, and she won't think about it anymore." ”
After all, the National Teacher Tower is where she has lived for many years.
How can there be a palace that makes her deeply emotional?
"Don't think too much, the girl is a good child, she values feelings, how can you give up easily to her?"
"You also said that she is emotional." Concubine Jing sighed, "Compared to us, her relationship with the National Teacher is naturally deeper. ”
How can the two be compared?
Mama Shu knew what she was saying now, and Concubine Jing couldn't listen to it.
She smiled faintly, when Bai Ying first lived in Jingyu Palace, did Miss ever think that she would have such an inseparable day?
Similarly, Bilo Xuan is also brightly lit.
Ruhua Ruzhu stayed by Concubine Luo's side, watching the time pass little by little, she couldn't help urging Concubine Luo: "Niangniang, if you don't sleep again, it will be bright in a while." ”
What she said before did not get any response from Concubine Luo.
She had been sitting on the threshold of the temple in a daze, dressed in her bedclothes, and on her shoulders was wearing the windbreaker that Ruzhu had draped over her.
But this time, Concubine Luo suddenly turned her head and asked, "It's dawn, will Ah Ying come back?" ”
The hope in Concubine Luo's eyes is like the brightest light in the night.
Ruzhu's heart was instantly grabbed by a big hand, and she even felt that she was about to run out of breath.
"Niangniang......" Ruzhu said with difficulty, "Let's go rest first." ”
Ruzhu finally determined that their mother had a special paranoia about the girl......
Normally, Miss Ying is fine, but if this happens, Niangniang seems to be in a panic - she catches the light and is about to flee.
It turned out that unconsciously, Niangniang's love for Miss Ying was already so heavy.
Ruzhu felt dizzy, and she even wondered whether it was luck or mistake for Niangniang to meet Miss Ying.
Ruhua was also very sad, but she still said: "Miss Ying said that she would come back, that is, she will definitely come back." Hurry up and rest, or Miss Ying will blame the slaves for not taking good care of you when she sees her face tomorrow. ”
"Ah Ying won't." Concubine Luo subconsciously defended Bai Ying, "Ah Ying is kind to people and will not do such a thing." ”
Even if she wants to blame, she will only say coquettishly that she is such a big person, and she is so willful.
Concubine Luo muttered: "I don't want Ah Ying to leave, if...... It would be nice if Ah Ying could stay in the palace for the rest of his life. ”
"!" Ruzhu lost his voice and said, "You don't want to do this. ”
What is that?
Ruzhu should have known that from the moment she learned that she couldn't have children in her life, Niangniang was crazy.
Only when the girl is there can she heal her festering wounds.
But it is only to soothe, to suppress.
That wound, I'm afraid it won't heal in this life.
Keigo Palace
In the darkness, the boy seemed to be talking to himself, as if he was talking to another person.
"The national teacher came back and took her away, is the plan going well?"
That little girl, by now, should have taken out the lost pill recipe and gave it to the National Teacher like a treasure, and then offered him out when the National Teacher asked about the origin.
Regardless of whether the national teacher is willing to owe him this favor, I am afraid that he will have to do something for him in the future.
Obviously, the goal should have been achieved.
But Fu Nanqi had a handsome face and a gloomy aura, as if someone owed him millions of taels of silver.
The shadow guard, who was blind, also said happily: "Congratulations to Your Highness, your subordinates, you are about to get what you want." ”
"......," Fu Nanqi said coldly, "Shut up!" ”
The shadow guard touched His Highness's moldy head again somewhere, and he didn't dare to speak, but quietly listened to the young man gritting his teeth and scolding.
"Tell her to go, let her die, is it stupid to die?"
"Stupid!"
"Like a pig's head!"
She shouldn't have given her all the rest of the pills!
However, not to her...... How can the National Teacher owe him a favor?
Fu Nanqi took a deep breath, and his sanity and calmness gradually returned, he was really dizzy.
"Your Highness?" The shadow guard whispered tentatively.
"Let the Shoukang Palace come tomorrow." Fu Nanqi's face was expressionless, his eyes were cold and fierce, like a beast that could eat people.
The shadow guard whispered, "Yes." ”
……
And at this moment, in the tower of the national teacher, Bai Ying stood in front of the national teacher, bowing his head and not speaking.
The National Teacher is still very patient, "Has Ah Ying thought about it?" ”
"Master......" Bai Ying wrenched his hands, raised his eyes and pleaded, "Master will give Ah Ying a few more days to think about, just a few days." ”
"Okay." The national teacher nodded, he respected the little girl's decision.
No matter which path she chooses, he will let her grow up safely.
Bai Ying tossed and turned on the bed, and couldn't help but think of the day before the national teacher left.
The national teacher's clothes were the same color as the heavy snow that was falling outside, and he was also in the study, and the national teacher asked her condescendingly: "Do you want to enter the palace to study with Concubine Jing, or learn to be a national teacher."
Bai Ying only replied with three words at the time: I don't know.
The national teacher is not angry, nor is he angry.
He only touched Bai Ying's head lightly and said, "Then Ah Ying think about it, don't worry." Master sent Ah Ying to Concubine Jing first, Ah Ying must remember that we can't expose our relationship in the palace, and when Master comes back, you will make a decision. ”
But now that Master has returned, she is still hesitant.
Bai Ying hugged the quilt tightly, she didn't like the kind of life in the palace, intrigues, and words, but she liked Concubine Jing, Concubine Luo, and Mama Shu, and she also liked those exquisite snacks in the palace.
She longed for such a comfortable life as the National Teacher Tower, but she knew that once she became the heir of the National Teacher and a disciple, the burden on her shoulders would be as heavy as Mount Tai.
It seems that there is nothing else in front of her except these two roads.
Bai Ying smiled bitterly, this may be the greatest sorrow of women in this era, right?
Thinking about it from another perspective, at least she has a second option.
And noble people such as Fu Yunlan, the lord of Huaiyang County, have only the road of marriage in this life.
But she doesn't want to marry at the age of sixteen or seventeen like them.
A man may marry later, even if he is twenty years old, he can be said to be young and promising.
But girls, at most until the age of seventeen, eighteen years old and not in the boudoir have not made a marriage contract, they will be called old girls.
This world is too harsh on girls.
Bai Ying felt panic for the first time, and she could even imagine that she was married in her teens, with a big belly, trapped in the house, and slowly aging.
"No!" Bai Ying sat up suddenly.
No way! Not at all!
In modern times, she hasn't given her first lead, first hug, first kiss and first love at the age of twenty-four, why did she get married and have children here in her teens?
Do you want to live?
Bai Ying put on his shoes and hurriedly pushed the door out.
She's going to find the National Teacher, she's going to the Master.
She decided.
Qingfeng was about to come over to see if she was asleep, but she saw Bai Ying's light clothes and ran out regardless of it.
"Ah Ying!" The breeze hurriedly called out to her, stepped forward quickly, and drove her back to the room, "It's autumn, and you're not afraid of freezing?" ”
Bai Ying's eyes were shining, and he was scolded by the breeze like this, and his calmness returned.
She smiled: "Ah Ying knows." ”
"So? Is there something going on? I ran out in a hurry. The breeze said softly, "Ah Ying is going to find the national teacher?" ”
Bai Ying nodded, she said embarrassedly: "Master must have rested, it was Ah Ying who was reckless." ”
Qingfeng said: "The national teacher has indeed rested, Ah Ying should also sleep." If there's anything important, it's never too late to talk about it tomorrow. ”
"Ah Ying bothered Sister Qingfeng." The white tree gently breathes and blows the back of the hand with a gentle breeze.
Qingfeng smiled and said, "What kind words did you say?" Ah Ying still wants to enter the palace tomorrow? I'll go and prepare your clothes. ”
Of course I want to go, Bai Ying said: "What you have promised, no matter what, you must do your best to do it well, and live up to yourself and the person who promises." ”
"Ah Ying has learned a lot." Qingfeng exclaimed, "The master who is too learned is really powerful. ”
Perhaps, the decision of the National Teacher was right.
The changes in Ah Ying are obvious to you.
She used to be, but she has been scattered and passing.
Bai Ying rested for the night, and the next day he went to the National Teacher in high spirits.
"Decided?" The national teacher's glass-like eyes looked at Bai Ying intently, and his tone was serious, "Ah Ying has really decided?" You can't say that one is two. ”
Bai Ying nodded vigorously and said loudly: "Since it has been decided, it will never be changed." ”
The National Teacher has always been very good to this only disciple.
His face softened slightly, and he said, "Since you have chosen this path, you must go on." ”
"Ah Ying's own path will never be regretted!"
"Okay."
The National Teacher brought the white tree to the top of the National Teacher Tower.
The position of national teacher has always been destined, even if Bai Ying's life is excellent, he must follow the rules.
The national teacher took out the things used for divination, inserted three pillars of incense in the rustic incense burner, and whispered to Bai Ying while moving: "Ah Ying kneels down and gets rid of distracting thoughts." ”
Bai Ying knelt down with a serious expression, and there were hard black bricks underneath, which were cold and hard, which made Bai Ying's knees hurt.
The National Teacher Tower has a very long life expectancy of the national teachers in the past dynasties, all of which are the mandate of heaven, which can pass the will of heaven, and some natural disasters can also be predicted in advance, because of the national teacher, Dayu has been prosperous for hundreds of years.
The white smoke curled, blurring the hexagram, the national teacher stared and waited for the result, Bai Ying was also worried and did not dare to come out, she knelt in front of the table, and the pain in her knee seemed to be unconscious.
Bai Ying clasped his hands together and closed his eyes.
God, you must take care of her.
Hopefully, my wish will come true, and my wish will come true.
The smoke slowly dispersed, and the National Teacher gradually stretched his eyebrows, as if something was pulled out of his body in an instant, and the National Teacher's voice was much weaker than before, "Ah Yingke must work hard to be the next master of the National Teacher Tower." ”
Bai Ying opened his eyes and was speechless in surprise.
She couldn't understand the hexagrams, and hoped that the national teacher would say more.
But the face of the national teacher was as pale as paper, and Bai Ying's heart was pouting, and he had a bad premonition.
"Master...... Master, does divination come at a great price? ”
