Chapter Eighty-Four: Nothingness and Warmth
The winter sun broke through the thick clouds, and wisps of golden shimmer shone on the vermilion walls on both sides of the palace alley, gilding them with layers of warm light.
In winter, only the plum blossoms bloom vigorously, Lingxiu passed by Meilin and folded a few red plums into the Jinlu Palace, holding a white plain bottle with a thin neck and round bottom, filled half a bottle of water, and put the red plum branches on the table.
The people in the palace are the most snobbish, and Niangniang is now out of favor and imprisoned in the cage of the Golden Dew Palace, but her life has fallen to the bottom.
Seeing Niangniang leaning quietly by the window in loneliness, Lingxiu called softly: "Niangniang, the red plum that the slave maid picked in Meilin, you see, how beautiful it is." ”
During this period of time, the chaos in the palace made Xiao Luo miserable, the queen fell, Concubine Yin hanged herself, not to mention how Concubine Li and others died tragically, she was in great pain not because this palace was killed by concubines and former accomplices, but because of her sister, because the king did all this just for her sister!
The king has never been so sad to pursue the two lives of the Roufu people, and the elder sister has just lost a child, and the king almost wants to abolish the entire palace to pay for the life of his sister's child, and he also takes care of his sister in every way, but in this palace, who cares about the new and old loves of these kings!
Xiao Luo looked at Lingxiu's plum blossoms with a haggard face, delicate and beautiful, Lingxiu had a heart, in this lonely and cold deep palace, now only she and a palace maid are left to rely on each other.
"Lingxiu, you have a heart, in the past, I liked Hongmei, it was because of my aunt's liking, but now, when I see this Hongmei," Xiao Luo opened the wooden box in the dressing table, there was a hidden golden wire scissors inside, she quickly picked up the scissors and folded her waist to cut off the red plum branches, in Lingxiu's frightened gaze, she cut the intact and beautiful plum blossom petals to pieces, "When I saw this red plum, I thought of the person who took away my king's favor, I hate her!" Hate her! ”
In a moment, plum blossom crumbs filled the table, and Ling Xiu saw a terrifying killing intent on Xiao Luo's face.
"Mother's ......"
How can she not know the person she hates in her mouth?
Ling Xiu clenched her fists, she must be the person she hates the most!
"Lingxiu, this palace wants you to do something."
Xiao Luo's dress was plain, she walked to the head of the bed, lifted the cloth quilt, and a palm-sized wooden box was revealed underneath.
"This is the only savings in this palace, you go to the Tailuan Palace to find an inconspicuous little eunuch, and use this bag of jewelry to buy him ......"
Lingxiu nodded: "The slave will do the mother's order!" ”
Xiao Luo handed the money to Ling Xiu, and sat at the table, looking at the stump of the red plum on the table, her eyes flashed with bitter hatred, the person she hated used to be her dear relatives who she relied on deeply, but she was no longer the person who was once weak and ignorant, if that person still regarded her as a close relative, why did she snatch her beloved!?
"I lost this red plum too."
Ling Xiu was busy doing it, and Xiao Luo sat quietly in the empty Jinlu Palace, and it was another whole day.
A group of palace maids and eunuchs followed the king like tails, and from a distance, they saw a handsome man in front of them standing under the red plum tree with a stunning woman in his arms.
The glow of the warm sun behind the clouds shone on the branches, and the occasional red plum petals fluttered in the wind and landed on the soft soil beneath their feet.
Ah Rong stretched out his slender white hand, palm facing the plum tree, only to see a bright red plum blossom bone that was blown down by the thin wind fell into the snow-white palm, the bright red color and the color of the white skin contrasted, charming and tempting.
The king smiled, and his usual cold and solemn expression was much softer at the moment.
"Come, Lone pinned it to your bun."
Lightly raised his slender hand, grabbed the flower bone in Ah Rong's palm, pinched the green stem under the bone with his fingers, and inserted it into the bun along the lines of the hair.
The green silk pulls up the lily bun, the middle hairpin of the bun is a purple gold lily jade inlaid with flowers, on both sides is the purple gold string of white jade soft butterfly flowers, the bright red plum bone is not between the flower and the flower, the warm white jade and the glamorous beauty are placed in one place, don't be glamorous.
Zhong Li Xun Jun had a gentle look in his eyes, and touched Ah Rong's ruddy little face: "I have been well nourished in the past few days, and my complexion is also ruddy, which is very good." ”
The soft touch on his face was warm and comfortable, Ah Rong was slightly ashamed, and chuckled: "I have eaten a lot these days and slept better." ”
When Fang Li Xun said goodbye to her flowers, she saw the doting color in his eyes really well.
Yu Quan and others all saw the king's love for Ah Rong, and they were also happy for Ah Rong: "The king specially prepared a tribute ejiao for the girl, which was used to replenish the girl's body, and the girl's body was well conditioned, and her complexion was naturally better." ”
"Well," Zhong Lixun tightened his hand around Ah Rong's waist, and his smile was extremely comfortable, "It's true that Ejiao is used well, Yu Quan, you can go to the treasury to get it when you pour it." ”
"Yes, the minion obeys." Yu Quan bowed down to receive the order.
The two of them wandered through the whole plum forest, and as they walked, they arrived at the plum pavilion in the center, and Ah Rong's pace slowed down a little.
The scene of her farewell to Zice that day appeared in front of her, and the pain in Zice's eyes was still fresh in her memory, but she had no choice, she couldn't give Zice what he wanted, so she couldn't delay him.
Ah Rong felt guilty about Zice, and the person standing by her side now was the person she promised.
Zhong Lixun hugged Ah Rong domineeringly and sat down in the pavilion, and the red plum scenery in front of him was in full view.
"This is the piece of plum forest in the plum hall in the past, and Lone moved people to the palace, which can be regarded as Lone's thoughts on his mother."
Hearing the faint sad tone of the man in front of him, Ah Rong's heart trembled, like a feather sweeping at the tip of his heart.
A-Niang...... I also love red plums......
She was sad in her heart, but she grinned comfortingly: "The slave and maid A-Niang also loves red plums, but A-Niang is not favored by her father, unlike the king's mother, who is deeply favored by the first king, and the first king planted such a beautiful Merlin for her." ”
Ah Rong's smile trembled at the red plum bones on her hair, her smiling face was like a flower, stunning and captivating, and Zhong Lixun's eyes were confused for a while.
The first beauty in Kyushu is none other than Qing, Zhong Lixun's heart moved, he knew that he didn't keep her by his side because of her identity at this moment.
When he heard Ah Rong call herself a "slave", his eyes naturally froze, and he raised his hand to lightly lift her snow-white little face, and ordered: "Remember, don't call yourself a slave again." ”
Ah Rong lowered her head and smiled, her face could not hide her happiness, she had a miscarriage that day, at the moment of life and death, it was he who did not give up and pulled her back from the edge of death, from that moment on, the estrangement between Ah Rong and him seemed to disappear.
"Yes, I see."
Ah Rong raised his head, his eyes shining.
"By the way, the king, there is one thing, can the king satisfy Ah Rong?"
Remembering A-Niang, A-Rong thought of Luo'er, who were all close relatives, although Luo'er harmed her, she was heartbroken, but she promised A-Niang's wish to protect Luo'er!
Zhong Lixun said casually: "You say." ”
"Will you let Luo'er go? I...... After A-Niang went, there was only one relative......"
Ah Rong's eyes were pleading, Zhong Lixun was a little surprised when he heard this, his handsome eyes were deep, and then he finally relented: "Xiao Luo is not the Xiao Luo of the past, but since you ask, Gu can relieve her feet, but if she does it again, she won't go around again." ”
A happy look flashed in Ah Rongmei's eyes and nodded.
