Text Chapter 5 Wishful thinking is empty?

Qingguo Mansion is busy, but it is quiet in the Xiyun Pavilion, Xia Yunshang came back from his thoughts and looked out the window, it was the clear sky and moonlight, the cool wind in early summer blew through the window leisurely, bringing a little floral fragrance, Xia Yunshang took a deep breath, adjusted her mood, slowly got up from the beauty couch, heard the sound in the house, Zijuan walked in from outside the screen.

"Miss, are you going to rest?" Zijuan asked

"I'm a little tired, let's rest." Xia Yunshang said and turned around and walked to the Babu carved bed in the inner room, Hongyu and Luqiao stepped forward to change into a moon-white mandarin duck long skirt for Yunshang, put down the loose bun, and served Yunshang to rest.

"Miss has little for dinner, why don't you eat some white fungus lotus seed soup sent by Madame?" Zijuan asked

"It's okay, I'm really hungry when I say that." Xia Yunshang said, and when Zijuan took the warm lotus seed soup handed by the maid, she found that Yunshang was already asleep. He carefully covered the quilt for Yunshang and gently stepped back. And Yunshang's sleep is really unstable.

"Go down and save people!" Chu Mengxi's voice appeared in the dream.

"Miss! Hurry up! Hurry up! Miss ......" In the distance, there were anxious cries of Zijuan and Hongyu.

But his body has been sinking to the bottom of the bottomless lake, the lake is dotted with shadows, the oxygen in the chest is depleted little by little, the cold lake water enters the lungs, choking uncomfortably, and consciousness fades little by little. There was a figure in the distance, Yun Sheng waved his arms with all his might, the figure was getting closer and closer, Yun Shang's consciousness was blurred a little bit, only fixed on the black, bloodstained clothes, the blood stains spread little by little, wrapped around Yun Shang, and there was a blood mist in front of him that could not be lingered......

In her sleep, Yunsheng's brows were furrowed, and beads of sweat oozed from her forehead. A pair of warm hands gently brushed over and carefully wiped the beads of sweat. Yunshang seemed to feel the warm body temperature, and her right hand held the man's hand tightly, pulling it into her arms, as if she felt safe, and Yunshang's frowning brows gradually flattened.

"But scared?" A low male voice came slowly, and a long figure in black sat by the window of Yunshang in the moonlight, looking at Yunshang's gradually peaceful sleeping face with distress.

There was a faint sound outside the window, the man turned his head sideways, the moonlight depicted a delicate face, phoenix eyes, cold eyes, and thin lips pursed slightly.

"Master, report urgently at the border." Hearing this, the man looked down at the sleeping Yunsheng, and replied slightly: "Well, sleep in peace, I will protect you in the dark" The man was reluctant to glance at Yunsheng, and was careful to pull out Yunshang's clenched hand, tucked the corner and disappeared into the night.

Losing the hand that pulled him out of the blood mist, Yunshang only felt that he was sinking to the dark bottom of the water again, "Ah......" Xia Yunshang exclaimed, panting heavily, a little bead of sweat oozed from his forehead, there was only a little light in the room, Yunshang was in a trance for a while, not knowing whether he was in the underworld or the world, his heart was beating like thunder.

"Miss!" Ruby rushed to the bedside with a wax table, and the maids lit the lamp in the inner room. Looking at the room that was gradually brightening up, and the vivid red jade in front of him, Yun Sheng slowly relieved, and his breathing slowly slowed down, but the hand on his abdomen couldn't take it for a long time.

"Miss is not feeling well, why is she sweating, do you want to ask a doctor?" Hongyu said as she gently wiped the cold sweat from Yunsheng's head with a handkerchief.

"It's okay, I had a nightmare." Xia Yunshang said with a sigh of relief.

"I asked the kitchen to prepare longan soothing soup before, Miss drink some?" Ruby said.

Xia Yunshang nodded, and Lu Qiao served and changed his clothes, and Hongyu took the soothing soup with Yunshang, and after using it, Yunshang asked again, "Hongyu, you said that a little guy came to tell you that he found me that day?" Do you remember what that little guy looked like? ”

"Why did Miss think of this?" Hongyu thought for a moment and said, "I was anxious that day, but I didn't pay much attention, the little guy was dressed in black, about eight feet tall, with his head down, and the other slaves didn't pay attention." ”

"Did you see him again? For example, when the second prince of the Hou Mansion came? Xia Yunshang asked

"I don't think so." Hongyu said with some uncertainty, "At that time, the slave maid had already messed up and didn't pay attention, or the slave maid would ask Sister Zijuan, maybe she still remembered." ”

"No need, I'll just ask casually, it's late at night, don't disturb her rest, okay, you can go and rest too." Xia Yunshang said

"Yes" Hongyu served Yunshang to lie down, closed the curtains, extinguished the candle in the room and withdrew. Yunsheng was lying on the bed, but her heart was full of questions. The man in black, with blood stains on his clothes, sent himself on the boat and left again, is the silver in his hand his? Who the hell is he? After thinking about it to no avail, I fell asleep when sleepiness hit.

β€”Early Morning Dividing Lineβ€”

"Miss is awake?" Bihe smiled and said, "But I want to take a break again, I heard from Hongyu in the morning that Miss is not sleeping well." ”

"It's okay, since you're awake, get up, and it's time to go to your mother's place to say goodbye. Grandpa, Daddy, and Brother, they're going to court, right? Yunshang said.

"Yes, after the young lady woke up that day, the young master sent someone to say that he was going to be dragged back by the emperor to work as a coolie at dinner. It seems that something happened at the border gate, and the old man was also called in the middle of the night, thinking that he couldn't come back overnight. I uploaded a letter early, so that Miss could have a good life, and I would come to accompany Miss every day after the next day. Hongyu smiled, turned around and beckoned the maids to bring the toiletries, and served Yunshang to freshen up, and finished grooming.

Zijuan asked, "Which dress is Miss wearing today?" ”

I just woke up from falling into the water, I was just recovering from a serious illness, my face was a little bad, and I couldn't be too widowed to worry my mother when I went to see my mother, Xia Yunshang thought for a while and said, "Wear that jujube red ancient satin full-breasted skirt." After changing clothes, having breakfast, sitting in front of the dresser, Lan Rui asked, "Is it good for the slave to comb the young lady's hair and put on plum blossom makeup?" ”

"Well, good" Yunshang returned with a smile, glanced at the jewelry on the dresser, chose a pair of butterfly and hibiscus treasure jade hairpins, wore red golden lotus life locks, and cleaned up. took Zijuan and Hongyu to Qiongrui Pavilion to ask for peace.

As soon as they entered the hospital, the maids saw that the young lady was coming, and they didn't dare to slack off, so they hurried to the main hall to return.

Half a moment later, I saw Shangguan Rui'an's personal maid greet him with a smile: "Just now, Madame was still talking about Miss, and this Miss came." Can Miss pinch it? ”

Yunshang said angrily, "Aunt Anrou made fun of me. ”

"Okay, let's not talk about Miss, let's go quickly, the lady of the province is in a hurry." An Rou said, the group walked through the courtyard in the middle, bypassed the corridor, and went to the main hall behind, only to see Princess Ruian with her hair pulled into a bun, wearing a peony red gold pendant Huasheng, beautiful eyebrows, natural atmosphere, slender and white neck wearing a string of southern beads, full of them, wearing a yellow peony pattern cloud brocade cardigan skirt, nephrite belt at the waist, and looking at Xia Yunshang walking slowly with a smile on the front.

"Xiang'er asks her mother to say goodbye." Yunshang said with a smile.

"I just wanted to go and see the clothes, come and show my mother." Shangguan Ruian smiled, took Xia Yunsheng's hand and sat down beside him. After a while, he frowned and said, "Xiang'er didn't rest, okay?" Why is it so green now? ”

"It's okay, mother." Yunshang said with a smile, raised her hand and pressed her temples, her face looked very tired.

Aunt An Ci looked at Yunsheng's face, thought for a while and said, "Madam, Miss is in distress this time, I'm afraid that she will be frightened and can't sleep at night, so it seems that she has encountered a catastrophe, so it is better to go to Baiyu Nunnery to pray for blessings and eliminate disasters." ”

"Well, what An Ci said is reasonable," Shangguan Ruian nodded and said, "In this way, we will prepare tomorrow, anyway, there is a garden over there, all of them are distracted, and when your grandfather and father come back from the court, I will tell them, how about it?" Shangguan Ruian felt that what An Ci said was very right, and every time he thought about Yunshang falling into the water during this time, his heart was not steady.

"Then mother, let's go for a few days." Xia Yunshang thought in her heart, according to the memory of her previous life, Xia Yuqi should come this afternoon with Chu Mengxi's distress letter. If you don't save yourself in this life, it is too inconsistent with your temperament and temperament, but you don't let them suffer a little, and you really haven't even recovered any interest.

But did you ignore something? The letter was for himself, but it was brought by Xia Yuqi......

"I'll be back in two days. How is it? Shangguan Rui'an's gentle voice interrupted Yunsheng's thoughts. The eldest princess was also worried that Yunsheng's body had not healed, and she was worried that the outside of the city was not as convenient as the inside of the city, and it would be troublesome in case she got sick.

"Mother, I always feel that it is the blessing of the gods to get out of danger recently, every time I appear in the dream I will sink to the bottom of the lake, it seems that there is a Buddha light falling from the sky, pulling me out of the bottom of the lake, I want to worship for a few more days." Yunshang said

"Really?" Shangguan Ruian was even happy when he heard his daughter's words, "If it is really blessed by the Buddha, we must thank the Buddha for his kindness this time." In this way, I wrote to ask your Aunt Su to help prepare for her birthday, and we will come back two days before our birthday, how about it? ”

Aunt Su here is the wife of Chu Xuan of the Qingguo Mansion, Su Ruoxue.

"Listen to your mother. By the way, Mother, I think that this worship of Buddha and Thanksgiving should be sincere, but I don't have to wait, how about I go now? Anyway, this white jade nunnery is not far away, and the left and right objects are missing and come back to get it. Xia Yunshang said.

"Is it in such a hurry?" Shangguan Ruian was also stunned, although the place is close, but the preparation of this item also takes time.

"Mother, I always feel that I am not at ease in the house, last night I only felt that the Buddha protected me, but I don't know why the hand I was holding suddenly disappeared, I think that my catastrophe must not have passed, otherwise why is there a Buddha light warning?" Xia Yunshang shook Shangguan Rui'an's hand and said.

"Madam, the slave maid feels that the young lady said that it is reasonable, and this prepared object will be handed over to the maids and maids, and the lady and the young lady will go first, and the slaves and maids will also send it later, and there are also preparations in this garden." Aunt An Ran said.

"So, okay, let's go back and prepare later." Shangguan Ruian said with a smile

After the mother and daughter chatted for a while, Shangguan Ruian instructed Zijuan and Hongyu to prepare things and let Yunshang go back to rest. When Xia Guogong and the three of them returned to the house, they all felt that it was reasonable to listen to what Shangguan Ruian said, so they did not hinder it, and after lunch, Xia Yunxuan escorted them to the suburban garden. As soon as they left, the Chu sisters' wishful thinking was in vain.

In the afternoon, a woman dressed in a blue satin maid appeared at the side gate of the Guogong Mansion, and the guards at the door recognized it at a glance as Shulan, who often followed Chu Mengxi, and stepped forward and said, "What's the matter with the girl?" ”

"On the orders of my young lady, I came to meet the county lord. Tiredness is passed on. "Saying that, I took a look at the waist card of the Qingguo Mansion.

"Now, at noon today, the young master escorted the lady and the young lady out of the house. This ......," said the guard, embarrassed

Shulan was taken aback and left the house? "Then, what about our young lady! Where did they go? When will you be back? Shulan asked anxiously, thinking that Chu Mengxi was being punished in the ancestral hall at this time, if she couldn't invite Xia Yunsheng to go, Chu Mengxi would definitely not be able to spare herself, and she was anxious and afraid.

"I don't know about that."

"Then please send a message to Zijuan and Hongyu. Let's just say that my young lady is in a hurry, and I bother them to inform the county lord. Shulan said politely

"But this Miss Zijuan and Miss Hongyu have gone with Miss, why don't I help you pass the word to Miss Bihe and Miss Lanrui?" The guard saw that she was anxious and said kindly.

"Is Miss Xia here?" Shulan asked anxiously.

"Yes." The guard nodded.

"Then please bring the letter to Miss Xia, there is a lot of work." "Well, okay," the guard took the letter and walked inside. Shulan breathed a sigh of relief, waited, and after a while, the guard came out again and said, "I happened to meet the grandmother next to Mrs. Fang, and I took it, don't worry." Hearing this, Shulan's heart was slightly light, and she said with a smile: "Thank you, thank you." He turned around and hurriedly walked in the direction of Qingguo Gong.
