An Ping's face was pale, leaning on the edge of the table, and he condensed coldly at me: "Tao Dyeyi, what qualifications does she have to talk about these old things." Where did you go, what did you hear from her? ”

I clenched my shirt tightly and said timidly, "No, I didn't say anything." When I went to see her, she was dizzy and delirious. Somehow, for some reason, he pulled me to talk about the past. She talked about you, the King of Yonghe, the former prince Bailifu, and Dong Jia. ”

An Ping sneered, his slender eyebrows and eyes, revealing a cold light. "You shouldn't be asking about these things, so why should you cause more trouble."

After being silent, she gritted her teeth again, and said hatefully: "She also told you about the palace change, and talked about the former crown princess Yu Pengpeng, right?"

I panicked for no reason, and I didn't dare to look her in the eyes, so I only dared to lower my head and whisper yes.

"None of this has anything to do with you, you don't have to know."

I suddenly became very confident, and argued with reason: "How can this have nothing to do with me?" Mother, Changji is my husband, don't I have the right to know everything related to him."

An Ping sneered: "Since you want to know so much, why don't you go and ask Changji in person, but come and ask me first?"

I laughed dumbly and shook my head, "I'm just not sure, not sure about my guess." That's why I'm here to test you. ”

"Temptation? Tempt what you don't matter what you do! ”

An Ping smiled bitterly, and said in a daze: "There are some things that it is better to know than not to know, and the more you know, the more dangerous it is."

She pressed forward step by step, grabbed my hand at once, and threatened me viciously: "You'd better forget what you heard from Tao Dyeyi, don't believe anything, don't say anything." She's a madman, and she can't believe half a word of her words. Did you hear me? Also, you'd better not mention it again. ”

I have never seen such a peace, like an angry lioness who will be eaten by her if she is not careful.

She was so angry with me that she was leaning on the edge of the table and panting as she tried to calm down.

I picked up the pipa again, touched the words engraved on it, and said calmly to Anping: "You know this pipa, and you should also remember the words on this pipa." This is a congratulatory gift from Dong Jia to Tao Guifei, and there are also greetings engraved on it. The left sentence is written in Chinese characters, and the other sentence is written in Beiqiu language. Engraved, ask for benevolence and benevolence......"

"Engrave to seek benevolence and be benevolent, and be obedient."

She interrupted me, but added the second half of the sentence.

I sneered, "Then you admit that you know Dongjia."

An Ping smiled instantly, and shook his head disapprehantly.

By the time she had laughed enough and calmed down, the rest of my panic had dissipated.

"It doesn't matter if you recognize it or not, whether you remember it or not. I don't want to talk about people and things in the past. ”

"Lacking, this is the business of the older generation, and it has nothing to do with you. Don't ask Changji again, he won't tell you, and he can't tell you. If you're really doing it for his good, don't ask him who Dongjia is. I know you're full of questions right now, but I can't tell you. This lute, you are here with me, let me keep it. ”

Unable to allow me to refuse, Anping picked up the pipa and turned to leave.

I touched my sleeve, and luckily, the two paintings in the lute had been hidden in advance.

…… When I got home, Changji waited for me at the gate of the courtyard with a lantern as usual, which seemed to have become his habit. Every time I came home late, he would light the lanterns on both sides of the walkway outside the courtyard one by one, and the long row of lanterns would all light up, so that the floor was bright and I could clearly see the way home. And when I entered the courtyard, he would be waiting for me at the door.

After walking for a day, my feet were sore to death, and my heart was also depressed, I had no strength at all, but I could see the long pole, and I suddenly came to the spirit, and trotted towards him.

I grabbed his arm, looked up and said, "Did you wait for me here?" ”

He scratched my nose and jokingly said, "No, I'm just here to watch the night view and blow the cold wind."

I Nunu mouthed and rolled my eyes: "Wait for me, and lie."

He didn't admit it, but it was sweet in my heart.

I cleared my throat and said loudly, "Oh, I've been tired all day, and I haven't seen any caring people to comfort me."

Changji was quite helpless, pinched my nose, and said with a smile: "Crazy girl, you are tired of what you do, I haven't asked you where you have been crazy this day."

I was surprised, "You really don't know where I've gone?"

"Well, I just knew. Have you seen the last side of Tao Niangzi? ”

I said, "I haven't seen it." By the time I went, she had already been taken to the Wen family cemetery. ”

Changji was stunned, and I didn't say anything more.

Standing motionless like this, my ankle suddenly ached, and I remembered that I twisted my foot when I left the palace, and I was flustered at that time, so I didn't care about dealing with it, but I was afraid that it was swollen now.

I looked up at Changji, made up my mind, pulled his sleeve and shook it around, and said coquettishly: "Changji, I twisted my foot on the way back and couldn't walk, is it okay for you to carry me."

He grinned, gave me a smile, and pronounced clearly: "Not good!"

I let go of his arm and asked, "Why?" You don't even know how sorry you are. ”

He clasped his hands and laughed, "Fang just ran towards me like a rabbit with joy, why didn't you say that your feet hurt at that time?"

"I kid you not, I really twisted my foot, it's just that I'm strong and I've been holding back without saying anything. I was so happy to see you just now, that's why I didn't care about my foot injury, if you don't believe it, then you can come and see. ”

As I spoke, I bent down to unfasten my socks to show him the injury, but my hand touched my foot, but Changji immediately raised his hand to stop me.

He smiled, touched my head, and said softly, "I'll tease you."

He bowed slightly, and called me as if resigned to his fate: "Little fat man, put on your back, I'll carry you home."

I was angry and funny, waved my hand and slapped him on the arm, and said angrily: "You are the little fat man!"

……

I lay on Changji's back, with my side face against his back, my hands gently wrapped around his neck, and I told him what I saw and heard in the palace today. I don't know how to tell him about Anping's unusual behavior tonight, and I can't easily ask him what connection Dong Jia has to do with him.

Speaking of Tao Guifei, some guilt suddenly floated in her heart, feeling sorry for her, and she couldn't rush to see her as soon as possible, so she regretted it. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh.

Changji heard my unwarranted lamentation, turned his head to me and asked, "Why do you sigh for a long time?" Is it a sore foot? ”

"No, I just remembered what Tao Niangzi said to me before her death, sad and impermanent, a little sad."

I was obviously so uncomfortable, not only was he not relieved, but he couldn't help but joke to me: "That Tao Niangzi is really amazing, just say a few words to you, and it can still cause you to be sad, it's really not easy."

"Hey, what do you mean by that? Isn't it strange to see me sad and sad? There are few girls like me who are delicate, empathetic, and reasonable. It's only natural for me to be sentimental. ”

He didn't say a word, but he walked slowly on my back.

It was a little cold at night, and I was in a hurry when I went out and didn't have time to add an extra piece of clothing, and now the north wind is blowing, and it is really cold, so I quickly shrank my hand into my sleeve, and rubbed my head into the neck socket of Changji.

I smiled and talked to him, "Changji, it's so warm next to you." ”

He ignored me.

"Changji, am I very heavy?"

I craned my neck to look at him, perhaps uncomfortable at my rubbing, he frowned slightly, and his face was still a little red.

"Am I very heavy?"

He sneered twice, moved the hand that was holding my leg up, and carried me higher before saying, "It's not heavy, it's not heavy at all." Two more like this, you and I can afford to carry them. ”

"Hah! Do you want two more? No way! It's enough for you to have me. ”

He said bitterly: "Yes, yes, it is enough to have you." I can't bear you alone, and it's good to have one more. ”

I shrugged, not wanting to rub my shoulders with him, and looked up at the night in a pleasant way. The stars are sparse and dim. The yellow light from the two rows of red paper lanterns illuminated the shadowy osmanthus trees next to the path, and the breeze came slowly. The nose is still lingering with the fragrance of late autumn osmanthus, faint, not heavy or strong. I lowered my head, my chin resting on Changji's shoulder, and listened intently to the faint birdsong around me.

I buzzed and muttered, "Changji, why haven't I seen a partridge bird for a long time, it's almost winter, but I haven't heard the partridge bird's call."

He replied softly, "When the gardenias bloom, the partridge birds will appear."

"Liar, gardenias bloom in summer, and partridge birds don't appear until winter. When the gardenia is in bloom, how can you see a partridge bird? ”

Changji couldn't help laughing: "Where did you get the wrong perception, of course you can see partridge birds when gardenias bloom." Have you forgotten that you caught partridges in the gardenia courtyard of Zhanhua Palace that year? ”

I was silent for a moment, as if this was indeed the case.

"Speaking of Zhanhua Palace, I haven't been back for a long time. When will we go back to see if it's okay, I think that piece of gardenia, I want to think about the water lotus pond in Nanyuan. ”

Changji didn't speak for a long time, and I thought he hadn't heard, so I tapped him on the shoulder, and was about to repeat it, but he said, "I don't really want to go."

"Why?"

He smiled faintly and said, "I don't like that place in Zhanhua Palace."

I snorted: "You lie again, you don't like Zhanhua Palace, then you used to run over there."

He paused before saying, "Because you lived there at that time, you were there, so I had to go."

I was overjoyed, covered my mouth and smiled: "Tsk, who did you learn from this flamboyant tongue, you are so good at talking."

He replied to me slowly and unhurriedly: "It's all heartfelt words."

——

I was so playful that I immediately let go of the hand around his neck and pulled his ear, pulling his ear and laughing.

Changji was not annoyed, at my mercy.
