Sixty-eight, chrysanthemum brocade (1)
This night, Pei Zhenwan was still staying in Hanxiangzhai, and Emperor Chen chatted with her for some words, and then stayed in the bedroom by himself.
Agar was puzzled, but Pei Zhenwan also needed to know more about Emperor Chen's mind and preferences, so she fell asleep in such confusion.
In the Chen Palace, Jun En maintained the status and future of these women in the palace, no one knew that Pei Zhenwan had never served in bed, and only known that this was the first beauty in the Chen Palace who crossed the canonization and lived in the emperor's bedroom.
Because of this, Pei Zhenwan walked in the Chen Palace in the following days, and in the Zhengde Palace and Penglai Palace, everywhere she went, she could enjoy the compliments and respect sent by everyone on the front, and naturally, the gossip or jealousy on the back did not need to be expressed.
On the third day after the canonization, Pei Zhenwan finally waited for the congratulatory gift she was most looking forward to.
It was a thin copy of the Buddha's auspicious scriptures copied with sprinkled gold ink on the flowers and plants. Smelling the fragrance of ink, the faint aroma of flowers and plants, Pei Zhenwan couldn't help but smile gently.
"Agar, it's time for us to go to Xuanming Palace."
Agar nodded and asked, "Do you need the slave maid to bring some Nanshu-flavored delicacies?" There should be ready-made ones over there in Banxia. ”
"Fabulous."
I took the agar to Liushang to get some food from Nanshu, and then walked all the way to Xuanming Palace. This road has been walked again after 20 days, but the mood is still completely different.
The palace gate of Xuanming Palace was open at this moment, and the guards stationed outside the palace saluted her, and there was nothing else to say. Pei Zhenwan entered from the main gate of Xuanming Palace, Xuanming Gate, and the inside was as cold and pure as the previous time when the second prince died.
All the way to Xiaozhu, there was still only one little eunuch carrying water and sprinkling and sweeping, and there was no one else.
The two doors of the small building are completely open, and when I walked to the door, I stopped and saw two pots of chrysanthemums under the window, the petals and the heart of the flowers were yellow and clear colors, and the small flowers bloomed intensively.
It happened that Bai Lu came out of the house, saw the two people standing at the door, and smiled: "Pei Meiren is here." ”
I saw Shen Zhaorong holding Qingming's hand and coming out of the room, although he was still dressed like a Taoist robe, but there was already a slight gentle smile on his face.
"I've seen Shen Zhaorong." Pei Zhenwan took the agar and bowed in unison.
"Shibei three days, it's really impressive." Shen Zhaorong's face was bright, and he smiled faintly in that light and gentle demeanor.
"Zhaorong here, there is really a lot of life, those two pots of sunshine chrysanthemums, they are really vigorous."
Shen Zhaorong turned around, looked at the two pots of chrysanthemums under the window, and said quietly: "Autumn is high and cool, you always have to respond to a scene, this is not a precious variety, it is good to put it here casually." ”
Pei Zhenwan smiled and took a few steps closer and said, "Although this kind of chrysanthemum is ordinary, it can bloom in the sun, and it is very suitable for all kinds of difficulties." I think that the variety is secondary, and such tenacious vitality is worth sighing. ”
The two sides had a heart, and each smiled, Shen Zhaorong tilted his head slightly, and asked with a smile: "There is tea in the house, or the old tea from last time, can the beauties drink it?" ”
"Naturally, you have to drink."
The inside of the house was no different from the past, the two of them sat down, and the Qingming people went outside the house to wait.
Shen Zhaorong carefully looked at Pei Zhenwan, who was carefully dressed up, and praised slowly: "There are beautiful women in the north, peerless and independent. One look at the city, and then look at the country. Rather than know the city and the country? Beautiful women are hard to come by. Today I understand what kind of peerless beauty this Li Yannian song describes. ”
Pei Zhenwan smiled faintly: "Zhaorong compares me to Li Yannian, but there is a lot of fear. If I take care of the country again, then I will become a sinner in the Chen Palace. ”
"Whether you can become a sinner depends on what Your Majesty does, why bother to attribute it to a woman who suffers in the deep palace?" When Shen Zhaorong said this, he was faintly sad.
Pei Zhenwan nodded and said, "This is indeed as I thought, too many people in the world often focus the name of the dead country on the names of traitorous ministers, demon women, and Diao people. But I don't know, if it is not the person who is in the main position, who is mediocre, negligent, delusional, and arrogant, how can there be an end to the troubled times and the destruction of the country? ”
The two of them had the same mind, but they were extremely comfortable, and they couldn't help but raise the tea cup in their hands, look at each other and smile and drink.
"When I talked to you that day, I knew that you must have great achievements, and sure enough, even Your Majesty appreciates you very much." Putting down the teacup, Zhao Rong smiled gently.
"Zhaorong praised, but Zhenwan was a little ashamed, if he was dressed up carefully, he would still be able to shine."
"Zhenwan, is this your maiden name?" Shen Zhaorong said slowly.
"Exactly."
"This name is like you, how about I call you by your name in the future?"
Pei Zhenwan smiled and was not in a hurry to answer, Shen Zhaorong raised his hand to refill the tea for the two, and said lightly: "You used some means to get to Your Majesty's side, and tried your best to persuade me, why?" ”
Lifting the teacup to his lips, he also asked lightly, "Zhaorong is willing to go out of the mountain?" ”
Shen Zhaorong's expression moved, he chuckled, and nodded, "I do." ”
Pei Zhenwan got up, bowed with the salute of a general, and said in a deep voice: "Zhaorong doesn't know my identity, I don't know my intentions, but I can trust and be honest with each other, Zhenwan is here today, thank Zhaorong first!" ”
This ceremony is considered solemn, but Shen Zhaorong was a little surprised, and got up to help him up: "I was also thinking in my heart, why are you such a big gift." ”
The two returned to their seats and sat down, Pei Zhen Wanfang said solemnly: "Same as Zhaorong's identity, my real name is Yang Jingshu, my father Yang Qian, and the word Zhongqi." ”
Shen Zhaorong couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked in disbelief, "What are you talking about, General Huaihua?" ”
Pei Zhenwan pursed her lips and smiled: "Yes." ”
This news came too shockingly, that is, Shen Zhaorong's heart has been calm and peaceful all these years, and at this moment, he also felt like a thunder explosion in his ears, and he almost couldn't believe it. Fu looked at Pei Zhenwan's expression again, and there was no intention of frolicking and cowering. recalled the last time she came to this time, she had mentioned the battle in Fengcheng, even though she couldn't believe it, she had to relate it to one place.
"What you said is indeed the Huaihua general of Nanshu, Yang Qian, the commander of the Shaking Mountain Army?"
"Indeed, my grandfather is Yang Xuan, the general of Xiandingyuan, and my brother is Yang Jingqi, the general of the Shaking Mountain Army."
Shen Zhaorong took a sip of the teacup and sorted out the chaotic thoughts in his mind: "You just said that your real name is Yang Jingshu and you are Yang Qian's daughter, but I heard that back then, the people of the Yang family all went." ”
Pei Zhenwan grinned a tragic smile, and a sense of pain climbed into her heart: "Yes, the whole army of the Shaking Mountain Army was wiped out, my father and brother died on the bank of Baishui, my sister-in-law Luo Zhen cut herself, my uncle Gao's family was slaughtered, I fled in a hurry back then, and the one who survived, as well as my nephew, my brother's son, Yang Yi." ”
This can be regarded as a summary of the events of the year, Pei Zhenwan finished speaking, and quietly looked at Shen Zhaorong's expression. When she said this, she couldn't tell what the reaction would be, and it was a big gamble. But she can't help but gamble, the future alliance needs absolute trust in each other, and honesty at this time has become the first step of the temptation.
If it can be done, it will be an ally, and if it can't, it will be the first enemy to strike at each other.
