161 Butterfly Blossoms (2)

() Before entering the Wanyi Palace, Dongxue had already hurried out, and suddenly saw Xiangxiang's embarrassed and miserable look, and couldn't help but ask anxiously: "Niangniang, what's wrong with Madam?" ”

Even Dongxue could see a little emotion, I sighed in my heart, turned my head and glanced at Xiangxiang, and then said softly: "It's nothing, Madam is a little tired, I want to go in and rest." ”

Xiangxiang raised his eyes and stared at me, and after a while, he replied in a low voice: "Yes, I'm tired, I want to go in first and rest for a while." ”

I smiled slightly and said, "Okay, let Dongxue accompany you." ”

After Xiang Xiang nodded lightly, he turned around and trotted all the way in, and soon disappeared.

Zhuang Jieyu's expression was now obviously confused, like a thin cloud shrouded in her face, and after hesitating for a long time, she couldn't help but slowly say out: "There are some words that I really don't feel comfortable holding in my heart, and I must ask what happened." ”

I nodded, "I understand," and after a while, sighed again, "let's go in and talk." ”

Zhuang Jieyu waved her hand and said: "It's not good, Xiangxiang just went in, her face didn't look very good, if the voice we talked about in the Wanyi Hall was accidentally heard by her, wouldn't it make her even more sad, let's take a slow walk nearby, and talk slowly." ”

I thought about it, "Or you're thoughtful." ”

The wind is soft, with a charming warmth, gently blowing from the cheeks, melodiously raising the sideburns hanging from the ears, soft as cicada wings, and the weak flower branches seem to be trying their best to absorb the breath of the world, ready to break through the soil and bury like a butterfly breaking through the cocoon, trying its best to embrace the temperature of the sun.

In such a season, wandering in the poetry of ink flowers and leaves, how free and easy, how chic!

I lowered my eyes and asked out loud: "Do you want to know some things about the marriage between Xiangxiang and Lord Rong back then?" ”

Zhuang Jieyu frowned lightly, "Yes," and said, "I'm really curious about how they could escape the eyes of His Majesty and the Queen Mother when they were married by His Majesty and the Queen Mother, not to mention that there were so many cumbersome and harsh etiquette procedures. ”

I took a deep breath, "To be honest, I don't know a lot of details, after all, like you, I haven't been lucky enough to catch up with the real experience, but I heard Xiangxiang talk about it before, I was very surprised when I knew it at first, but when I calmed down and thought about it, I didn't think it was impossible." ”

Zhuang Jieyu hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”

I pursed my lips and said, "It is said that on the second day of marriage, Xiangxiang and Lord Rong entered the palace together to thank him, and there was indeed blood on the Supa, but the blood was not from Xiangxiang, but the blood taken by Lord Rong who cut his wrist with a dagger. ”

Zhuang Jieyu thought for a while and said, "I have indeed heard that this method is about to be used in the people," and couldn't help laughing, "I didn't expect Xiangxiang to agree to use such a desperate method." ”

I smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if it's a bad idea, or it's a risk, as long as it works, it's done, isn't it?" ”

Zhuang Jieyu asked: "But how could Xiangxiang agree?" ”

I smiled wryly, "What if she doesn't agree?" Shaking his head, "How can this kind of thing be done by just one party?" After thinking about it again, she continued: "If she insists, it will be an insult to her own identity. Second, it will make Lord Rong even more bored with her. She's not stupid. ”

Zhuang Jieyu nodded and said, "That's a good thing," and asked, "But how could the Queen Mother not see it?" Even if the Queen Mother can't see Na Supa's Qiankun, and Aunt Jinyue is the person sent by the Queen Mother, how can she not see whether Xiangxiang and Lord Rong have done a joint ceremony? ”

I chuckled and said, "I think this should be the beginning of the rumors of Lord Rong and the princess." ”

Zhuang Jieyu's eyes lit up, and she whispered: "Could it be that Lord Chengrong and that princess have really been together?" ”

I asked, "I don't know because I entered the palace too late, how could you not know about it?" "I wanted to ask you!" ”

Zhuang Jieyu said lonely: "Although I entered the palace earlier than you, it was not much earlier, when I entered the palace, it was the eve of the princess's marriage, but there have always been such rumors, but I have never seen any intersection between the princess and Narong." ”

I looked at Zhuang Jieyu and said, "Although no one has ever been caught in this matter, I always feel that there are no groundless rumors." ”

She said cautiously: "What do you mean...... paused, "Is it Your Majesty and the Queen Mother who suppressed this matter?" ”

I nodded, "I heard that the Queen Mother loves this little princess the most, and the Queen Mother buried this matter in order to keep the princess's innocence." ”

Zhuang Jieyu said "um", "You're right," she lowered her head and thought for a while, "That's why she gave marriage to Xiangxiang and Lord Rong, but the actual intention was not to succeed, but to cut off the idea of a princess." ”

I snorted lightly, "Therefore, the Queen Mother and Your Majesty don't care whether Xiangxiang and Lord Rong really share the same bed, they just want to make an appearance for the princess and the world to see." ”

Zhuang Jieyu said in a disdainful tone: "Xiangxiang is just a chess piece that the Queen Mother gave to that princess to cut off her thoughts," anger gradually rose between the words, "Xiangxiang is such a beautiful woman, is she not qualified to have happiness that truly belongs to herself?" ”

I sighed and said: "This world is a blessing and misfortune, the people seem to be the royal favor to Xiangxiang, but in fact, Xiangxiang's happiness is exchanged for the princess's change of heart, now Xiangxiang looks unsatisfactory, but no one can say whether Lord Rong will fall in love with Xiangxiang in the future?" ”

Zhuang Jieyu said fiercely: "But the princess is Lord Rong's sweetheart!" ”

I smiled and said, "Then didn't the princess marry into the Yunnan palace and fall in love with the prince of Yunnan?" ”

Zhuang Jieyu sighed and said: "The princess is really a good fate, Lord Rong is already considered a handsome man, but I heard that the prince of Yunnan is more handsome and chic than Lord Rong, even if it is replaced by you and me, do you dare to say that you will not be tempted by such a man?" ”

I glanced at her and said, "I don't, I don't want to, it seems to me that one person is enough for a lifetime," and sighed softly, "Do you think the princess is good?" ”

Zhuang Jieyu joked: "If I can choose when I am reincarnated, I will definitely choose to be a princess." ”

I smiled and said: "Although the princess is more proud and freer than us in life, but she can never choose the person she likes, and she can never choose the path she likes. ”

Zhuang Jieyu's face turned a little pale, "Really? Biting his lip again, he shook his head again and again, "Then I still don't want it." ”

I whispered, "Nature is true, don't you know?" ”

Zhuang Jieyu said: "I only heard that the prince of Yunnan committed a crime before he was ...... Executed. ”

I chuckled, "The King of Yunnan has always been His Majesty's confidant, and if you want to get rid of it quickly, do you think Your Majesty will allow the prince of Yunnan to live well and then inherit the title of King of Yunnan?" ”

Zhuang Jieyu lowered her head and was silent, no longer speaking.

After I said goodbye to Zhuang Jieyu, because I was worried about Xiangxiang, I hurried back to the Wanyi Palace, and when I reached the gate, I saw Dongxue was pacing anxiously left and right in front of me, sweating finely. I walked up and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Dongxue saw that I was back, and hurriedly grabbed me and said, "Niangniang, you are finally back, Mrs. Fang Cai ran in but locked the slave maid outside the door, and no one was allowed to go in to disturb her. ”

My scalp was numb, my heart was terrified, I opened my mouth for a while, and I choked for a long time before I could hurriedly ask: "Madame, is there something wrong?" ”

Dongxue held me up, "Don't worry, Niangniang, fortunately, the slaves and maids went in quickly and have been rescued, and Madame is resting inside, but she doesn't seem to be in a good mood." ”

I nodded, my heart was anxious and painful, and I was about to go to Cuizhutang when I raised my feet, Dongxue looked at my face, stopped me and said, "Niangniang, don't go in yet, the slave knows that Niangniang is anxious, but now Madame doesn't seem to be able to listen to anything." ”

As I walked, I frowned and said, "She doesn't care for herself like this, how can I not say it," After a while, he sighed again and helped his forehead. ”

Dongxue followed me and said, "It just so happened that the imperial doctor came to send supplements to Niangniang, Niangniang was not there, and I bumped into Mrs. again, which is a coincidence, otherwise I don't know how long it will be delayed when I will go to the imperial hospital again!" ”

I stopped outside the Cuizhu Hall, and saw Xiangxiang sitting on the bed sobbing sadly through the cloud curtain, and my heart also became uncomfortable, and I sighed repeatedly. Dongxue asked suspiciously: "Madame just went out and was fine, how did she come back and become like this?" ”

I raised my eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "It's not because I met Feng Shuyi outside Cining Palace. ”

Dongxue was still puzzled, "What happened to Feng Shuyi?" Could it be that she could still target a lady she had never met? ”

I hated to laugh, "It's not that I saw Xiangxiang and I together, Xiangxiang said something that she didn't like to listen to very much, "I can't help but feel sorry for Xiangxiang," Feng Shuyi was unhappy when she heard it, so she couldn't speak well, and picked stinging words to humiliate Xiangxiang, but fortunately, Zhuang Jieyu's slap could be regarded as a lesson for her. ”

Dong Xue was surprised, "Zhuang Jieyu has always been calm and calm, not like a person who is easily impulsive. ”

I exhaled and chuckled, "No matter how thoughtful people are, there will always be times when they can't control themselves. ”

Dongxue nodded and said politely: "It's obviously not Madame's fault, why should Madame punish herself, it's really not worth it." ”

Unexpectedly, Xiangxiang had already stepped out of the door, "It's really not worth it!" ”

Winter Snow hurriedly saluted. I walked over to her and whispered, "Why are you so confused? ”

Xiangxiang's face was full of sadness and sorrow, as if the clouds were miserable, "Miao, I was wrong, I regret it, but my heart is like being pricked by a needle, I am really sad." As she spoke, tears glistened from her eyes.

I sighed lightly, raised my sleeve to wipe her, and said, "Why do you cry like a child, is it the same in your own mansion?" ”

Xiangxiang was in tears, and his voice trembled when he spoke, "At home, I secretly cry in no one's place," smiled dismally, shook his head, and a pearl tassel inserted in his sideburns swayed from side to side, Ding Ling, "It has been more than three years since I got married, but Rong Ruo has never thought anything about me, it sounds good, it is respectful, in fact, all the care and explanation are not out of love, but it is just a formality, and there has been a quarrel, but to this day he has not taken me off, even if he is sad and sad, Where do I stand and whimpering and crying all the time at home? ”

As soon as Xiangxiang said this, my heart became clearer, and I comforted softly: "There are so many couples in the world, how can every couple be like glue and love abnormally?" His eyes wandered on Xiangxiang's face, "In fact, sometimes it is good for husband and wife to respect each other like guests." The days of pen and ink are not necessarily as good as each other. ”

Xiangxiang said sadly: "Miao, you also said it, it's good, it's not very good." ”

The surroundings were suddenly as quiet as water, and the orange light cast by the setting sun was dim like a thin layer of clouds, which always lingered, and the voice I made sounded exceptionally clear, "Then you go to change him, to warm him, to move him." ”

Xiangxiang's face was pale, and her moon-white bedclothes made her even colder, "I can't warm him, let alone move him," after being silent for a while, she couldn't help but release, "He doesn't need me at all!" As he spoke, tears flowed well.

I grabbed her arm and said, "So, you thought of dying because he didn't need you?" ”

Xiangxiang nodded, every word was so shocking, "Yes, he doesn't need me, what's the point of me living, is it humiliating to live?" ”

When I heard this, I was really angry, glared at her, and whispered: "If you die to make him fall in love with you from now on, and let the person who humiliates you get the punishment he deserves, I will never stop you!" But is it possible? You clearly know that he doesn't have you in his heart at all, and you still want to do this, do you want him to feel guilty for the rest of his life, or do you want me to add a little more sin? You say you love him, but if he lives forever in guilt for your impulsiveness today, will you be at ease in the netherworld? After a pause, he said, "Without Lord Rong, your life is really meaningless?" Don't forget, you still have your parents, you still have friends and friends! ”

Xiangxiang's body trembled, staggered two steps and fell against the door frame, tears were even better, filling his eyes, his eyes turned slightly, tears had rolled down, sobbing like a wounded white rabbit, looking at it made people feel pity.

She said weakly: "Miao, what should I do?" I don't know what to do, I don't know ......"

I calmed down and said in a suppressed voice: "Xiangxiang, it is pitiful and sad that feelings are sandwiched on top of the imperial power, but in the face of such a situation, how can you stop alone, I am, Zhuang Jieyu is too, everyone in the harem is, if everyone is like you, then the people in the harem have already died, you can't just know how to blindly avoid crying and self-pity, a moment of stupidity without knowing it is forgivable, but then you must stand up again, you must not lose your ambition for a lifetime, if you do things that hurt yourself again, no one can save you, Maybe someone will feel sorry for you for your bumpy love path for a while, and after a while, you will still be quickly forgotten by most people in the world, and the only people who are sad are those who love you. ”

Xiangxiang finally suppressed the sobbing in her throat and choked, the gaze in her eyes seemed to be covered by a thick fog, endless sadness, grievances, and guilt were intertwined and thickened, she firmly grabbed my arm, the hot temperature scorched my arm, and suddenly, a painful cry broke out in her throat, and her face leaned on my shoulder to release and cry, "Why? ”

I stroked her back and rose and fell because of the whimper, and followed by two lines of tears silently, pushing others and myself, I suddenly felt very lucky, and I was very happy, Luo Xi's harem was beautiful and beautiful, but she only treated me very well. And I also have Luo Xi in my heart.

I also sighed that under the plot of imperial power, how many lovers were both passionate and sincere for each other's hearts, and how many innocent and innocent women could have chosen the opportunity to be loved by themselves, I am afraid that no one can count them.

I said gently: "People's hearts are made of meat, no one is a stone, how much you do, he can feel it, you can figure it out now, after you go back, think more about him between words, do more heart-warming things in life, your infatuation, there will always be a return, the so-called plant melons get melons, plant beans get beans, isn't this the truth?" ”

Xiangxiang bit his lip, "I understand, it's just ......"

I looked at her, "Can't you still let go of your face?" ”

She bowed her head, "I've never done it for anyone else before, and I don't know where to start?" ”

I said quietly: "If you really want to do it, you must know how to do it, but if you still want to escape, or even want to give up your life, if you feel that you can be worthy of your father and mother, and can be worthy of the person who treats you well, you can do it, and I will not stop you again." ”

Xiangxiang raised his eyes and stared at me, there seemed to be a little self-blame and a little remorse in it, "Xu has accompanied his family to watch the play of Miss Gongzi since he was a child, and he thought that all the love between men and women in the world should be so natural at a glance, but he never thought that in fact, there would be so many twists and turns." ”

I said in a deep voice: "That's just a script, in fact, what person's feelings are not tempered into steel, especially people like you and me." ”

Recalling the past, Xiangxiang's sad look was even more intoxicated, "At that time, although His Majesty and the Queen Mother gave him a marriage, he did not refuse, only when he was married, he was as suave as a Qiongzhi jade tree, I secretly agreed, naturally I thought that his feelings for me were the same, but when I married in, I found that things were not as beautiful as I imagined." ”

I smiled and said, "The love is deep, and you don't feel good when you think about it." ”

She said bitterly and embarrassedly: "No matter how bad it is, I can get through it, no matter how much Rong Ruo treats me as nothing, it's just that I can't bear other irrelevant people to show me a face, and they also mock me with this matter." ”

I said: "This is the case, what others say is just the truth, so what you have to care about is not what others say, but your own life, you will care so much about other people's words today, and it is precisely because those words are in the right heart, if you have a good life, what others say has nothing to do with you, you don't care at all, you will just laugh it off." ”

Her eyes were slightly red, and she looked like she was about to cry again, "He didn't even want to suppress this idea of gossip for me." ”

I looked at her and said, "You still care about Feng Shuyi's words?" ”

Xiangxiang said sadly: "She's right, how can I not care?" ”

I glanced away, a rhododendron next to me bloomed well, pink petals swaying gently in the breeze, and couldn't help but say quietly: "Whether Lord Rong is willing to do it for your ideas is his business, and whether you are willing to pay for him is your business, it depends on who can take this step first, if you don't take a step, I am afraid that you will have to torture each other for a lifetime, although they live under the eaves of the same house, they are the most familiar strangers." ”

Xiangxiang nodded, "I understand your reasoning." ”

I looked at Xiangxiang Qiu's crystal eyes, although she has been pampered since she was a child, she will not collapse like this when she encounters anything, but it is Feng Shuyi who just chose the biggest pain in her heart to add fuel and vinegar to her criticism to lead to the current result.

I finally realized what it means to kill people without seeing blood, if Xiangxiang is not stopped today, and commits suicide in my Wanyi Palace, I will lose a life, even if Your Majesty favors me again, it is also more auspicious, the plan of killing two birds with one stone, is very exquisite, and I don't feel that my heart twitches secretly, although Shen Jieyu is annoying, but my biggest and most terrible opponent is still Feng Shuyi, and it is not that I have not learned her methods a few days ago, but today with only three or two sentences, a person who has only met once can be killed according to her thoughts, I was really shocked.

How much power does she have to rely on, and how much accurate secret information can she get. Nobody knows.
