The sixtieth episode of the concubine's passing flowers and makeup

It is said that Dian Er was first detained in the palace by Jia Guifei, lynched, and after being rescued, he was framed, and the bone mistake was entrusted by Chen Zigui before, and the flying pigeon passed the book, and sent the news to Chen Zigui, but unfortunately the carrier pigeon was shot on one wing of the wing, although it was lucky to avoid the hunter's pocket, after all, it was injured and flew slowly, and fell between the rivers and valleys to rest for a long time, and when it flew to Chen Zigui's Qiwuyi mansion, it was delayed for several days.

Chen Zigui bandaged the wounds of the pigeons and cooked them carefully, and at the same time explained the affairs of Yizhong to the staff, so he went to the capital in person without stopping, and saved Dian'er. Along the way, I galloped on horseback, checked the customs clearance documents several times, and then arrived at the champion Wu Mansion, and after the report, Gu Cuo, Dian Er, and Zhixi all came out to greet them.

Chen Zigui saw that Dian Er was standing in front of her unharmed, with mixed feelings, he hugged her in his arms, just blindly smirked, but there were tears of joy in his eyes, and he said hurriedly: "It's okay for you to be fine, I'm late, I'm sorry." ”

Dian Er has never been able to stand his affection and kindness, and hurriedly pulled out, looking cramped, inexplicably grateful, and at a loss, after a while, he replied with a salute: "You don't have to be like this, come in person, and say that it's not too late, I'm not unscathed, thanks to the help of many people, I can't repay you in this life." ”

"How many people have you saved in Qingsang, God will not fail to take care of good people." Chen Zigui's eyes looked at Dian'er, always so spoiled that people were enviable.

"In the capital, the mountains are high and the water is deep, there are worries about the same room inside, and there are foreign intrusions outside, you are so uneasy, and you don't take her back, and you will marry one day, so as to avoid the hardships of running thousands of miles." How much Wu Gucuo loves Jing Zhixi, how much he understands Chen Zigui's affection.

"Who you are and you are my Lord all my life!" Dian'er watched Gu Mistake push herself into Chen Zigui's emotion, and felt a pain of injury in her heart. She looked at Wu Gucuo with resentment, and there were tears in her eyes.

"Bone mistake, what nonsense are you talking about!" Chen Zigui knew that Dian Er liked Gu Mistake, but Gu Mistake didn't notice it at all, and now he said such a thing. Originally, he Chen Zigui should have been happy in his heart, but looking at Dian Er's injured expression, there was only distress left in his heart.

"You kid, haven't you always had one thing to say, what's wrong today? Obviously, people came all the way to come, and I obeyed your wishes, but you blamed me. Wu Gucuo had never seen Chen Zigui so angry. The two of them have always been brothers, Chen Zigui has never blushed with him once, and today he is angry.

"Gu Wrong," Jing Zhixi pulled Wu Gu Cuo's sleeve and whispered, "Lord Chen should be tired from a long journey, so you can arrange for him to rest." "My own servant received the order, and it was settled, and it was not a little cumbersome.

After a while, news came from the palace that Jia Guifei had passed away, and officials above the fourth grade and their families had to wear white on their wrists, and plum makeup fell on their foreheads.

Wu Fu received the decree, instructed his subordinates to cut white wristbands, put them with them, and prepared gold leaf, camellia oil flower cakes, fish cheekbones and other thin objects, cut them into three-petal plum blossom makeup, glued them with ejiao, and pasted them on their foreheads as sacrificial flowers.

Gu mistakenly felt that using other things to make flowers was inevitably suspicious, so he took out the dried petals of Angelica dahurica that had been stored in the past, made them into plum shapes, and used the yellow flowers of the season, pounded the flower juice, dyed them yellow, and personally sent them to the Zhixi house. Zhixi is not there. He sat in the room and waited for a long time before he returned.

"Why are you here?" Zhixi pushed open the door of the house, and saw that Gu was sitting on the chair facing the door of the small hall, with a serious expression, like a handsome door god, he was startled without being careful, and subconsciously patted his heart, suppressing the shock: "It's always so elusive, let others see it, it's some broken words, you go back quickly." ”

"I'm afraid no one will give you some makeup," Gu Thou looked at her forehead, which was really empty.

"Oh...... Thank you for thinking of me," Zhixi said in a low voice, her eyes a little red.

"Sit here," Gu Cuo took her thin shoulders, pressed her into the Taishi chair where he was just sitting, gently pasted his homemade plum blossom Tian to her forehead, and looked at it carefully after pasting, and said: "Jiang Yuesheng eyebrows, Ximei tries on forehead makeup." I said that my family, no matter how you dress up, is the most beautiful. ”

"Why are you so good to me, I don't deserve it." Zhixi said: "I am a grass and tree, but I have not ordered spring flowers, I don't ask about autumn fruits, and I was born adrift." Do you know how to wander? It is that you have to constantly change places, from one place to the next, and there is no place to call home. In this world, no one likes wanderers, who have no fixed place to live, and who rely on others, and I don't want to live like this. As he spoke, tears flowed down the corners of his eyes and down his beautiful face.

"I understand." Gu Mistake replied in a very deep voice: "I know that if you go to your mother, she will be mean to you." The maids below are laying makeup with each other. ”

"No, you don't understand." Jing Zhixi always thought that Gu Mistake knew too specific, and she was talking about fate: "What I said is not these trivial matters. I've been used to this for a long time. ”

However, what the bone is wrong to understand, is not fate. When she lost her mother in a secret realm, when she was expelled from the world, when she was not allowed by the Zhao family, and even now when she was meanness to Wu's mother, he understood her, and she was so fine that she was a trivial matter, with her joy as joy, with her worry as worry, with his own heart, he realized her most subtle helplessness and loss. In the end, she still didn't understand him.

Gu Mistake wiped away the tears on her cheeks with a generous palm, and her heart was full of love: You want a place that can be called home, I can give it to you, but it is not what you want. What you want is really to go to the palace and enjoy that honor?

He didn't dare to ask her these words, he asked before, but she seemed to be subdued by life, and never refused to fight for herself, others condemned her life, she thought it was her own life, and what was even more tragic was that she took it as her deserved life. At the same time, Gu Cuo just wants to blindly satisfy her heart, and whatever she wants, Gu Cuo will rely on her, including that she is about to marry into the Zhao Mansion.

After that, every three days, the makeup of the flower fell off, and the bone mistake would be done for her personally, and she would put on new makeup, which caused another wave of surging jealousy in the house:

"Madame nominally says that she is a 'righteous daughter', but she does the work of a maid."

"I heard that she came from a poor rural area, and her family in the countryside village couldn't tolerate her, so they wanted to kill her."

"It's a lone star broom"

"But she is the future daughter-in-law of Rongwangfu, and now she is relying on our family to put on her makeup in person."

"What is the daughter-in-law of the palace, the one she wants to marry, is disgusted by King Rong, she is beaten to the point of flesh and blood every day, what good life can she have if she goes."

"She's here, what kind of thing, no name or point,"

"The one in the palace doesn't shy away from suspicion, let her be here"

"What's the way, she has nowhere to go!"

……

During the funeral period of the concubine, the emperor set up the state funeral supervisor, the funeral hall soul hall supervisor, and the mountain tomb eunuch, on the day of the burial, the funeral procession amounted to thousands of people, the white sails were building, floating in the lanes of the imperial city, showing the style of the national ceremony. After Jia Guifei's death, her underage orphan daughter was passed on to the newly favored and childless Yan Guifei.

The palace walls are still red and willow green, and there is no color lost because of the death of a concubine.

The imperial city is destined not to be quiet. The Jia family has just stopped for a few days because of the lack of a favored nepotism, and the Earl Chai's mansion, which was only sealed a few days ago, has become the focus of boiling again.

On this day, Gu Cuo came back from the Hanlin Courtyard and went straight to Zhixi, who was sitting in front of the spinning wheel of the 'Ask the Embroidery Workshop', spinning a ball of yarn. Gu Cuo dismissed the maid from the same workshop, then sat down next to Zhixi, put a sour branch wood octagonal pastry box in her hand, and held a Bazhen cake in her hand, stuffed it into Zhixi's hand, and said with a smile: "Tired, your favorite Bazhen cake." ”

Zhixi smiled, not wanting to brush off his kindness, and brought the pastry to her mouth a little restrainedly, and took a small bite. Gu Cuo held his face and quietly watched her eating, his eyebrows and eyes raised, and his smile was pure and bright.

"Madame wants ten horses of yarn today, and the women in the workshop all said that they were involved in the same room with me, and now you are only sending me food, I don't know how they complain about me behind my back." Jing Zhixi cautiously asked Gu Cuo: "The octagonal box of yours is for them to share, but what do you do to let them all out." She was always worried about criticism, but criticism was not less than half a cent because of her proper steps; She always cares that she is not very looked at by others, but she doesn't know that those who look at her differently will not look at her because she doesn't care.

"Sometimes, I will regret letting you read the book," Gu Mistake looked at her and frowned again, her smile dimmed, and said a little sadly: "When I first saw you in the ruins, you still didn't care about anything, you laughed when you wanted to laugh, and cried when you wanted to cry, but after reading books for two years, you were born in vain with so many sentimentalities and complaints, it can be seen that the sorrows of life all start from reading books and opening your mind." You don't care what they do, they mean you, and I still have to invite them to pastries, I don't have that reason here. ”

"You're just meandering, saying I used to be stupid." Jing Zhixi grinned, still like before, not elegant, not good-looking, but sincerely cute: "In the past, the ancestor of Yue Yue Zhao said that I was her granddaughter, and I really lived as her granddaughter, and I did the work of a maid, and now your mother says that I am her daughter, but I only dare to treat myself as a servant, and I dare not give myself half a penny." In my opinion, I'm making a lot of progress. It's a human word, and I only dare to believe three points. ”

"If you want me to say, I'd rather you be like you used to be." Gu Cuo said: "You carry the pastries, go and see the two sisters of your Yue Yue Zhao family, didn't you say that you played well with them when you were a child and always missed them." Now that they have married into the Chai family, and the capital has also given the Earl's Palace, if you want them, let's go and see them. ”

"What can I do with the yarn, it's not enough to count." Zhixi was obviously moved and wanted to go, but she didn't dare to move her steps.

"What about me" Wu Gu patted his chest and smiled again.

"If your mother beats you because of this, I will come back and I will be punished with you." Jing Zhixi also smiled, lifted the food box, and trotted briskly to the direction of Chai's house.

When he really came back, Wu Gu was kneeling under the scorching sun, holding the bamboo slip of the "Book of Filial Piety", and was punished. Jing Zhixi also knelt beside him, holding her hands up.

Four hours later, they were still on their knees, and the moon climbed up the treetops.

Suddenly, a small servant reported: "My lord, the Chai family has been raided!" Detention in the house! ”

"The two concubines of his family, can they escape?!" Wu Gu asked with concern: "The people I sent to pick them up, but they picked them up?" ”

"My lord is clever, the time they came out, it was not much worse than what you said, and now they have been sent to a safe place." The little guy replied.

"What's going on?" Jing Zhixi was not surprised at all when she heard that the Chai family had raided the house, and she specially asked her two sisters if they had escaped, and she was confused for a while.

"You are the hero," Wu Gu said wrongly, "I hid the news in the pastry, and it was you who saved your sister." ”

"You didn't tell me." Although Zhixi was happy that her sister escaped, she also had a few resentments to keep her in the dark, and she was inexplicably lost in her heart: You are so calculating, you are so fine, but you finally made me in the game. She thought so, but it was inconvenient to ask clearly.

"I won't let you go, I know that the holy decree will come down to the Chai family." Gu Cuo said: "I thought that you wanted to do something for the Zhao family, repay your kindness, and let the old lady not complain about you, so I let you go." If you had said it earlier, you would have panicked, but it would have been dangerous. ”

"In the end, I can't bear it." Jing Zhixi still despises herself.

"How you are, you are unique in this world, if you change, it will not be you." "You just have to remember that I will be behind you and watch over you at all times." ”
