Just when he was concentrating on admiring the flowers, a woman's soft voice came from behind him: "What a gift for the eternal heart!" "

Huai Sleeve didn't expect that there were others here, so he hurriedly turned around to look, only to see a concubine dressed in orange and pink palace clothes and beautiful pink makeup, accompanied by several little palace maids standing behind her.

Huai Sleeve hurriedly walked closer, bowed his head and bowed: "The palace maid Huai Sleeve first came to the palace, and I don't know how to call this master's respect. "

A deacon palace maid next to her said, "This is Concubine Hui." "

Huai Sleeve heard this and hurriedly squatted down and bowed: "The slave maid asks Concubine Hui Niangniang to say goodbye, and I wish Niangniang good health and good health." "

After Huai Sleeve finished speaking, he didn't hear Concubine Hui speak, so he had to bend his knees and squat and didn't dare to raise his head, and he still didn't see Concubine Hui speak for a long time, and his knees were a little sore, so he had to repeat the words he had just said, and Concubine Hui came back to her senses, raised her hand lightly and said, "Get up." "

Huai Sleeve slowly straightened up, still lowering his eyes.

"Lift your face." Concubine Hui whispered.

Hearing this, Huai Sleeve slowly raised his face, his eyes were as bright as water, his quiet and waveless eyes were neither humble nor arrogant, peaceful and steady, not at all like the stability and tranquility that a woman of this age should have, Concubine Hui couldn't help but feel slightly surprised in her heart, what a woman with a heart like brocade!

"I heard that you were appointed by the Queen Mother to come? I saw it today and really has a good temperament, it can be seen that the Queen Mother has a unique vision, I just heard that the Queen Mother praised your scriptures for copying very well, and it just so happens that I also have a thin scripture here, and I want to bother the girl to copy a copy for the palace. "

Concubine Hui said, stretched out her hand to the side, and a little palace maid next to her immediately put the scroll in Concubine Hui's hand, and Concubine Hui turned her hand and handed the scroll in front of her sleeve.

Holding the scriptures with both hands, he replied: "Thank you Concubine Hui for your love, and the slave will carefully copy the scriptures for the mother." "

When Concubine Hui heard her words, she laughed and said, "It is important for you to serve the Queen Mother well, the scriptures of this palace are not in a hurry, and you can copy them carefully." "

"I don't know who will hand over the scriptures to the mother after they have been copied, or where will the slaves and maids send them?" Huai Sleeve asked.

"This palace lives in Ningxuan Palace, you can copy it and send it over." After speaking, Concubine Hui raised her face to look at the noisy magnolia with the branches blooming, and said inexplicably and deliberately: "Remember what you just said, you should not forget your original intention!" "

Huai sleeve held the scroll in his arms, and when he heard Concubine Hui say this, he was shocked and stunned.

Just when she was thinking about the meaning of that sentence repeatedly, Concubine Hui had already turned around and said to the palace maid behind her: "Spring is deep and sleepy, when you come out, the palace is also a little tired, let's go back." "

A group of palace maids responded, hugged Concubine Hui left and right, and walked out of the back garden of Cining Palace, and gradually walked away along the verandah.

Huai Sleeve is still stunned in place, let the falling petals of the branch magnolia brush over the head and fall under the feet, for a long time, Huai Sleeve slowly raised his face, looked up at the flowers swaying in the wind between the branches, and murmured: "Flowers and plants can be scattered with the wind, but people are not grass and trees......" After speaking, he walked back to Zhihuazhai with the scroll of Concubine Hui in his arms.

As soon as Huai Sleeve stepped into the hall door, Lian Qiu had already set up a meal in the main hall, and when he saw Huai Sleeve entering the door, he said with a smile: "But it happened that the girl is back, so I thought about asking Fu'an to go to the girl to find it, and I'm afraid that the meal will be cold if it's late." "

She didn't feel that she had been out for many hours, and she didn't realize that it was dinner time.

Jian Qiu noticed that Huai Sleeve's expression was a little strange, and saw that there was an extra scripture in Huai Sleeve's hand, and asked in a low voice: "Girl, is this the Queen Mother having a new scripture to copy?" "

Huai Sleeve was asked by Juanqiu, looked at the scripture in his hand as if waking up from a dream, and slowly shook his head: "This scripture is not the Queen Mother's, it is Concubine Hui's." "

"Concubine Hui? Did the mother pass the girl to go? Zhuo Qiu asked suspiciously.

Huai Sleeve still shook his head: "I just met by chance, Concubine Hui heard that I copied the scriptures for the Queen Mother, so she also asked me to copy a copy for her." "

When she heard this, she didn't ask any more.

After a hasty dinner, Lianqiu and Yingxue put away the plates and dishes, and Lianbi brought tea.

Huai Sleeve asked, "What about Jian Yue?" Why didn't I see her at night? Lian Bi replied: "Aunt Su Ma called and said to ask Jian Yue to help embroider a pattern." "

Huai Sleeve asked casually: "Is the embroidery of Jianyue very good?" "

Jian Qiu said with a smile: "The girl just came, I don't know, the female red girl embroidered in the moon is top-notch in this Cining Palace!" "

When Huai Sleeve heard this, she nodded lightly, thinking in her heart: No wonder she has been paying attention to these girls for the past few days, Jian Yue's heart is as fine as silk, and she is thoughtful, which is somewhat similar to Su'er's temperament.

Huai Sleeve because of the old man, to Jian Yue is very good, and at the same time also noticed that Jian Yue is a woman with a good personality, a few days of getting along, the two have a similar temperament and temperament, and the affection is getting closer than others.

Among these palace maids, Jian Yue was the first to enter the palace, and she knew more about the stories in the palace, and Huai Sleeve was very interested in listening to her tell the gonzo in the palace, and originally wanted to chat with her at night to relieve her boredom, but Qiao'er was not here today.

Huai Sleeve picked up the book of scriptures given to her by Concubine Hui in the afternoon, sat at the table, took out a silver hairpin in her temples, plucked the wick, and slowly opened the scriptures.

Nalan Hui'er, Nalan Mingzhu's niece, Rong Ruo's cousin, Kangxi entered the palace in the twentieth year, canonized Hui Concubine, and Kangxi was promoted to the concubine in the twenty-second year.

I had heard this name before I entered the palace. Mentioning this name, my heart also swelled with a heartfelt longing, and today I suddenly heard Concubine Hui say those words, and I guessed that Rong Ruo must have mentioned herself to Concubine Hui, but it was just ......

Huai Sleeve thought about it and frowned slightly, what impressed her was not the last words of Concubine Hui, but the eyes she looked at her at the end, the jealousy that was deliberately hidden in the depths of the eyes, but could not be completely concealed.

And the last thing she said to Huai Sleeve was more apt than a reminder.

He wanted to flip the scroll casually, but unexpectedly a page fell out of the scroll and fell to the ground.

Huai Sleeve was slightly stunned, and immediately picked up the piece of paper to take a look, and was shocked, there was a poem neatly written on the page, and by the glow of the candle, Huai Sleeve muttered: "Life is like morning dew, and the world is full of people." Hardships often come early, and reunions often come late. Remembering to serve in the service, go to Erri far away. Send the car to welcome the son, and return empty. The provincial book is sad, and I can't eat before eating. Sitting alone in an empty room, who will exhort you? I couldn't sleep for a long night, and I lay down on my pillow and turned alone. Worries come like a cycle, and bandits are unstoppable. "

Cherish the sleeves and read the poems carefully, and for a while the sourness poured into her heart, this familiar Chu Henan style, even if it turned into ashes, she could recognize it, a longing poem, evoking the gentle time when the sleeves were grinding in the past.

Huai Sleeve is familiar with this poem for women, it is the Eastern Han Dynasty Emperor Huan, when Qin Jia, the county official of Longxi County, went to Luoyang to take office, wrote a poem to his wife who could not say goodbye in person, there were originally three poems, and here is the first one.
