Chapter 181: Concubine Hui's Words
Jian Yue, Jian Qiu and the others had never seen Huai Sleeve crying like this, they all panicked, and only circled around her, but they didn't know what to do.
He stared at the threshold for a while, as if he had suddenly come back to his senses, sat up straight, wiped the tears with his sleeves, took the coffee table that had been poured into his stomach just now, and wiped the water marks on his lips.
Jumped off the soft couch, walked to the desk in two steps, rummaged in the books he copied on weekdays, turned out a dozen hand-copied papers, found a large envelope, sealed it carefully and clamped it under his armpit, and swept away with his body. Only Jian Yue and Jian Qiu were left looking at each other and standing in the house.
Carrying the manuscript under the armpit of the sleeve went straight to the Guiyan Pavilion, although he had never been there, but the approximate direction was still known, the road was shaded by trees, the flowers and trees were in the sky, and the sleeves had to ask a few palace maids and eunuchs, and finally came to the outside of the Guiyan Pavilion garden.
Guiyan Pavilion is located in secluded, there is a hundred-year-old banyan tree in front of the door, the huge crown is like a dark blue umbrella to cover the sky, the sunlight sprinkles the fine shadows all over the ground along the fine leaves, like cut gold leaf, sparkling fluctuations, quiet and soft.
When the sky is clear, it is easy to give people a vague illusion, which is very quiet and quiet.
Although Chang Ning is Prince Gong, there are no guards at the door of Guiyan Pavilion, only an old eunuch holding a big broom and quietly sweeping leaves.
Huai Sleeve walked to the front of the main gate, looked at the inner courtyard for a long time, and did not see the eunuch or guard in charge of Tongbing, lingering in front of the door for a while.
The old eunuch who swept the courtyard saw Huai Sleeve hesitating in front of the door, so he came over with a broom, his slightly fat face and kind eyebrows, he looked at the clothes of Huai Sleeve slightly, and asked with a smile: "Is the girl here to find our prince?" ”
Huai Sleeve nodded hurriedly: "Exactly, I don't know if the prince can be in the house at this time?" ”
The old eunuch smiled and returned: "The prince is not in the house, it is useless for you to wait here, at this moment, eighty percent is waiting for the long-lived lord in Qingning Palace, where is the prince these days." ”
Hearing this, Huai Sleeve lowered his eyebrows and thought for a while, reached out and took out the manuscript held under his armpit, held it with both hands and said to the old eunuch: "Annoying father-in-law, can you transfer this to the prince for me, the prince will naturally know who I am when he sees this." ”
The old eunuch saw that Huai Sleeve was earnest, so he took the manuscript.
With great joy, he reached out and took out a piece of silver from his purse and stuffed it into the old eunuch's hand, and thanked him repeatedly.
The old eunuch refused with a smile, and said, "When the prince comes back, the slave will be handed over to him, but it's just a gesture, and the girl doesn't have to be so polite." ”
The old eunuch said, carefully took the manuscript, and walked into the Guiyan Pavilion with a broom.
Bored with his sleeves, he walked slowly along the side of the road to Diyu Xuan, and the purple cockscomb and canna flowers planted in the middle of the road were strong, and the scarlet blood-like color was dazzling.
Huai Sleeve only felt that the bright flowers were too bright, and the flirtatious people were upset and uneasy, so they simply lowered their faces, staring only at the bluestone pavement, and kicked the small stones scattered on the ground without a match.
The sound of the skirt squirming came from far and near, until the sound of the creaking bamboo strips trembling had forced behind him, and the sleeves woke up, and when he looked back, he found that it was Concubine Hui's cool vine shoulder.
Huai Sleeve hurriedly stepped sideways and bowed and said, "Concubine Hui Niang Jin'an." ”
Concubine Hui didn't expect to meet Huai Sleeve here, and hurriedly called the eunuch who was carrying the sedan chair, and slowly dropped her shoulder, and the little palace maid next to her hurriedly held Concubine Hui's arm, got up from the shoulder and walked to Huai Sleeve.
"Hurry up and excuse me, this palace hasn't had time to congratulate you, but I don't want to meet here by chance, you really have a good relationship with this palace!" Concubine Hui smiled with a smile, and when she saw her sleeves, she seemed to be an unexpected surprise.
Huai Sleeve smiled lightly: "I don't know what happy things Huai Sleeve has, because I have been serving the Queen Mother and the Crescent Princess recently, and I have no skills, so I haven't visited Niangniang for a long time, and I hope that Niangniang is not to blame." ”
Concubine Hui smiled and shook her head and said: "Where are you talking about, you are now a princess teacher, since when you first entered the palace, we, the concubines who live in the inner palace, have to ask you more about the rules and etiquette and expand our horizons." This palace also thought that the body had been recuperating in recent days, so I went to see you, and by the way, I asked for some Buddhist scriptures that I didn't understand, but I happened to meet you here today. ”
"Niangniang's phoenix's health is the most important, if there is a need to carry sleeves, send someone to pass it on, how dare you bother Niangniang to drive in person." He replied with his sleeves down.
Concubine Hui smiled indifferently: "That's good, this palace will not be polite to you in the future, and you and I are not outsiders!" ”
Concubine Hui's last sentence was a little more serious, as if she intended to remind her of the matter with Rong Ruo.
He smiled and bowed his head slightly, but did not answer.
Concubine Hui's narrow Danfeng eyes glanced at the face of the sleeve, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she asked softly: "This palace sees that your face is slightly pale, and it seems that the fire is rising in your heart, but what is the hurry?" If you might as well listen to it, maybe this palace can explain it for you. ”
Huai Sleeve originally wanted to talk about the affairs of Northern Xinjiang, but after thinking about it, he often heard that the emperor was very disgusted with the harem about political affairs, and even if he heard his own affairs with Concubine Hui, he was afraid that it would be in vain, so he only shook his head slightly.
Seeing that Huai Sleeve refused to speak, Concubine Hui lowered her eyes and thought about it carefully, and muttered in her mouth: "The day before yesterday, I heard that the war in Northern Xinjiang was in an emergency in the past few days, what are you worried about, isn't this ......?"
Her words seemed to be talking to herself, and suddenly touched the most sensitive heartstring in her arms, and her originally drooping eyes suddenly looked at Concubine Hui and asked, "Niangniang, do you know how the war is going in northern Xinjiang?" ”
Concubine Hui raised her face to look at the arms sleeve with an anxious face, and sure enough, at this time, she glanced around, lowered her voice and said: "You can be quiet, you also know the temper of the Long Live Lord, as a harem concubine, how dare you ask about the political affairs of the previous dynasty?" What's more, it's an important matter for military aircraft such as war, but I just heard a sentence or two. ”
Huai Sleeve heard this and said: "Huai Sleeve is rude, and I hope that the mother is not strange." ”
Concubine Hui smiled softly: "What's so strange? If you change to this palace, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold your breath even better! After that, he looked at the sky and said, "It's time to go back to the palace, and I invite you to drink tea at the palace another day." ”
Huai Sleeve bowed again and said: "Thank you Niang Niang for your love, and Huai Sleeve to send Niangniang." ”
"Relax, it's okay!" As he spoke, he gently patted the back of his sleeve with his fingers, and summoned a palace maid to help him sit down again on his shoulder.
As soon as the eunuchs lifted up, Concubine Hui seemed to think of something again, and walked to the side of Huai Sleeve and said: "Recently, the emperor's dragon body is not safe, and the palace needs to go to Qingning Palace every day to serve and visit, why don't you go ......there?"
