Chapter 9: The same thing
An empty bird cage hangs in the corridor of the palace carved with dragons.
Qi Anning didn't ask anyone to take that thing away, she wanted to watch it every day, reminding herself that she couldn't repeat the mistakes of the past and become a caged bird.
The spring breeze blew into the hall along the window lattice, blowing away the drowsiness of the people, and the woman sitting on the edge of the bed stretched out and put the scroll in her hand aside, "Spring Sakura, do you have any snacks, I'm hungry." ”
I brought a plate of lotus cake to her, the delicate dim sum was made of lotus flowers, the skin was dark pink, the lighter the color was the further inside, the middle of the layers of petals was rich in fillings, and there were small fresh green leaves on the bean paste, and the dew drops were dotted, as if they were freshly picked from the lake.
Looking at the plate of pastries and swallowing his saliva, the southern dim sum is the same as the women in the southern country, beautiful and sweet, no wonder the neighbors want to marry, if they are born ugly, I am afraid they will go to war directly, why do you need to bother with these thoughts.
Thinking of this, he suddenly laughed, the king of Shu is lustful and warlike, if he sends a wild rose with thorns, I am afraid that he may not be able to talk about his appetite.
"This snack is too sweet, Aunt Yun is afraid that you will be tired of eating it, so she specially fried a cup of tea for you."
The people in Chenyou Palace feel that the third princess has changed a lot since she was sick, not only is she not a picky eater, but even her temper is good, although this change is good, but it is somewhat strange, Yun Gu is afraid that An Ning has something on her mind, and she asked a few times before learning the truth.
The princess said that since she knew that she was suffering from a stubborn illness, she was always worried that there would be no tomorrow today, so she cherished her current life, hoping to accumulate blessings and virtues and live longer.
Aunt Yun cried after hearing it at the time, she was poor and had to bear this at a young age, no wonder she was so sensible overnight. In fact, I would rather she never have to grow up for the rest of her life, compared to her physical health, what is a little willfulness.
But An Ning has lived for two lifetimes, and he has seen a lot of dirty methods in the courts of the south and the north, and he knows that Yun Gu only has one, and no one will always be used to herself like her.
"My aunt is so good, she knows that I called Ah You, and she is willing to give me sencha." With a joking smile, she said it to the outside, and I don't know if Aunt Yun can hear it.
Chun Ying also pursed her lips and snickered when she heard this, and whispered to An Ning, "Aunt Yun will only stay outside and tell Pei Gongzi a few more words, how can she be willing to talk about you." ”
"That's really pitiful Ayu, carry the book for me, and be scolded."
It seemed that she couldn't listen to it, so Aunt Yun walked in with a bead curtain, "Princess, it doesn't matter if you want to bring something, it's a big deal to ask Pei Gongzi to give it to the prince, and then ask the prince to give it to you." ”
"Brother is so busy with schoolwork, how can I ask him to run around, the envoys of Shu will come in a few days, Grandpa has explained a lot of things to him, I am bothering him at this time for a script, I don't want to go." After taking a sip of tea, An Ning sighed comfortably, "Auntie's tea is so fragrant, pour it for Ah Yu in a while, it's so hot, it's easy to have a dry mouth after running outside for a long time." ”
glanced at her, and there was a bit of helplessness in her expression, "Is the princess really interested in Pei Gongzi?" ”
"The slave remembered that the princess did not like people in the past." Not only does she not like it, An Ning's disdain for Pei You is on her face, she hates his gentle nature, and she often teases people when people like her, and even asks people to come down in front of the public several times.
"I'm not in good health, and only Pei Youken will let me." Looking out the window at the birdcage, she didn't understand why everyone was asking him this question, "I'm afraid I've wronged him......"
"Not aggrieved." The young man walked in at some point, Pei You smiled softly, even though his face was a little shy, but his eyes were extremely firm.
can be with her, no matter how he doesn't feel wronged.
"When did you come," An Ning grinned, but there was really a bit of a girl's coquettish taste when she saw her lover, "how did you learn to eavesdrop on people's conversations?" ”
Seeing this, Yun Gu glanced at the people around her, and everyone retreated with her.
"I didn't mean to eavesdrop, it happened to ......"
was amused by his serious appearance, and An Ning also learned to restrain her smile, "Then will you be angry, I relied on my illness and used you as a lifesaver." ”
"How come, what's so angry about this, not to mention that your disease is not necessarily incurable."
"What if it can't be cured?"
"That's okay, anyway, I'll take care of you and don't let you get sick. As long as you're good, I'm willing to do anything. ”
"Ayu, you're so nice." stared straight at him, and saw that the young man's face turned a little redder.
An Ning stopped teasing him, withdrew his hand and sat down properly, "By the way, how are things going, is it still going well?" ”
"It's going well, the post house is all in order, I taught them the words you told me word for word, it must be no problem."
"That's good," he breathed a sigh of relief, now that everything was ready, it was just a gust of east wind to set this fire on fire.
"Ayu, when we settle the matter of the eldest sister, I will tell Grandpa that he wants him to marry me, okay?"
The young man was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then his eyes seemed to be sprinkled with crumpled starlight, shining brightly. Pei You was so happy that he didn't know what to say, although An Ning suddenly changed his attitude towards him in the past few days, but such a solemn confession was the first time.
Since she woke up, the feeling of suffering and loss in her heart finally dissipated, and the young man nodded, "I will ask my father to ask His Majesty for marriage, as long as you are willing, I will treat you well for the rest of your life." ”
"Aning, I never thought there would be such a day."
An Ning never thought that there would be such a day, in order to escape from Xun Domain, she would choose a husband who was not very agreeable.
I don't know if I feel sorry for him or herself, the little girl snorted and laughed, "Silly Ayu..."
Long after Pei You left, An Ning was still sitting by the window in a daze, and once upon a time, that person said the same thing.
At that time, the young man was burned red by desire, kissed her lips and promised softly, and said that he would treat her well for the rest of his life.
Later, she learned that a man's words, especially in bed, could not be trusted.
Xun Yu was just worried that he would spread the shame he suffered when he was a proton in the northern country, so he left her in the palace, and she was gagged by the glory and wealth.
In the end, he said that he had never been sincere to her, and now she not only couldn't give birth to a child herself, but also caused others to have a miscarriage and murdered the emperor's heir, which is an unforgivable crime.
The northern kingdom was strong at that time, and Qi Anyi, who was secretly imprisoned, finally asked him to torture to death, and no one knew about the past, so she was useless.
Fortunately, there is an eldest sister, who is far away in Shu and still supports her, otherwise what awaits her is not just as simple as the cold palace.
So the most important thing she should do now is to protect her sister well.
After settling down, An Ning called Tang Li over, "You just said that Grandpa is going to have a banquet tomorrow, who will come?" ”
