Chapter 58: Reparation
Huo Guang paced, found Huo Chengjun's courtyard, and looked at the two women with smiles on their faces, I don't know how many years ago. At that time, Shangguan Ji caused the destruction of Shangguan's family due to rebellion, and Shangguan's hazy eyes were full of fear and anxiety when he lost his loved ones all of a sudden, so Huo Guang asked Emperor Zhao for his life and let Huo Chengjun, who was of a similar age, enter the palace to accompany him; Although Huo Chengjun and Shangguan Youhao are a family, they are not very familiar with each other before, Huo Chengjun was still a noisy child when she was young, after she entered the palace, perhaps because of the proximity of blood, Shangguan Youhao gradually regained her smile, the two of them played together, held hands and laughed together, these things of yesterday, at this time, surged into Huo Guang's heart.
"Grandfather!"
"Father!"
Two voices recalled Huo Guang's intoxicated memory, "Youhao, my grandfather knows that you are here, and he is here to find you." Huo Guang directly said why he came back.
"So, is my daughter going to avoid it?" Huo Chengjun opened his eyes wide and looked at the two.
Huo Guang smiled knowingly, "No need, you're hazy, I just want to ask you how the queen mother is?" Huo Guang's question surprised both Huo Chengjun and Shangguan Youhao, but he didn't expect him to come here specifically for this matter.
"My grandfather and Cheng Jun asked the same question, the queen's health has been much better than a few days ago, and Your Majesty has also gone to the Xuan Room to deal with official business, if your grandfather has government affairs to discuss with Your Majesty, you can find someone in the Xuan Room." Shangguan thought for a moment that Huo Guangxu asked because he couldn't find Liu Ai a few days ago, and he knew that he had been in Jiaofang Palace, so he said a few more words.
Huo Guang smiled and nodded, his usual sternness was withdrawn from his eyes, and it was replaced by kindness and kindness, "Okay, you're misty, you also need to take care of yourself in the palace, now it's winter, it's cold, don't let yourself get cold, if anyone embarrasses you, you tell your grandfather, and your grandfather will definitely protect you." Looking at his granddaughter, who had become familiar with a lot, Huo Guang rarely said such a caring word, "I, old man, won't bother you." After finishing speaking, Huo Guang turned around and left Huo Chengjun's courtyard.
When Shangguan Youhao turned around when Huo Guang's words fell, she saw that a few of his exposed strands of hair outside the crown had been dyed silver-white, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red, she always felt that she was lonely, but she always understood that since the collapse of the Shangguan family, she has been safe and sound, and it has always been because of her grandfather's support in the court, although he had selfish intentions, so that Emperor Zhao could only favor himself alone, but if it weren't for this, how could she have such feelings with Emperor Zhao later.
When Shangguan Youhao left, she took Huo Chengjun into the palace together, what she thought was that the palace was busy, Xu Pingjun was tired, and others couldn't believe it, so let Huo Chengjun live in the palace for a few days, and she could help herself; Second, you can also accompany yourself to relieve boredom.
On the second day of Huo Chengjun's entry into the palace, Chun Yuyan went to Huo Mansion again and found Huo Xian, Huo Xian's attitude was much softer than before, but he still did not make a clear statement, Chun Yuyan was not easy to request, so he had to leave and leave; And not long after Chun Yuyan left, an uninvited guest had come to visit, although the Huo family was not afraid of others, but it was not easy to spread the words of turning people away, so it was too arrogant, so Huo Xian reluctantly saw this uninvited guest, and his face was very dissatisfied.
Even though Huo Xian had already shown his attitude, Mrs. Rong still smiled at each other, "Mrs. Huo, I offended you without knowing the severity of the incident before, and I also offended the county lord of Mu marriage, and I am here to make amends today." Now that the intention has been explained, it is natural to lower the posture.
Huo Xian squinted at her when he heard this, and sneered, "Mrs. Rong's daughter is Your Majesty's beauty, no matter what, you are still a little related to Your Majesty, I can't stand Mrs. Rong's reparation." "Having said that, anyone can hear the mockery in the language, a beauty, there is no favor, where does the mother's family and His Majesty come from, not to mention, in terms of status, Huo Guang is also above the beauty, how can he not stand it.
"You are serious, I was too arrogant to do this before, and I hope Mrs. Huo will forgive me, if the county lord is here, I can personally apologize to the county lord." Mrs. Rong was not affected by Huo Xian at all, but lowered her posture even more, and got up and saluted Huo Xian.
"I can't afford this gift, my family Chengjun entered the palace with the Queen Mother, and he is not in the house." Huo Xian was still sitting on the seat, with a mocking smile on his face, "Mrs. Rong is a noble person who forgets a lot, this is already a matter of February, I really want to apologize, why wait until this November, this interval can be a battle between the Han and the Huns." Huo Xianke hasn't forgotten the embarrassment at that time, but now he still grits his teeth with hatred.
smiled embarrassedly, and then said: "Mrs. Huo, I speak a little ugly, I really mean to be unhappy for the county lord, the county lord is in the city, from General Huo's mansion, the family background is prominent, Chang'an City is known to be a talented woman, which is comparable to the one in the palace, but ......" There is no need to say much, the parties are naturally clear.
How can a mother not like to listen to others praise her daughter, although she doesn't want to see Mrs. Rong, but she is very useful for her flattery, "My family is unmatched, it's already like this, what's the use of regretting?" His tone was much softer than before.
"In my humble opinion, Your Majesty is just grateful, after a long time, the kindness is exhausted, and there is no affection for it, when the Emperor Xiaowu Jinwu was in the house, but in the end, it was not finally the Changmen Palace, dare to ask the county lord if he can be married now?"
After seeing Huo Xian shaking his head, Mrs. Rong said again, "By the way, I just saw Chun Yuyan coming out of the mansion, but what's the matter, I think about it, Queen Xu and the county lord are so good, it must be because of the better health, I want to invite the county lord into the palace to talk about my heart, this Chun Yuyan is the queen's female doctor, and she is also a person who is chosen by thousands of people, and is very trusted by the queen, I also heard the little girl laugh yesterday, as long as it is Chun Yuyan's offer, the queen will not doubt it, even if it is harmful, it will be difficult for her to be so loyal, otherwise how can the queen's miscarriage recover so quickly." It seemed that he had no intention, but the rest of his eyes were always on Huo Xian's quietly changing face.
"I have also made amends, I am also a little tired, Mrs. Rong is self-convenient, and the hospitality is not good, I hope to forgive me." Without waiting for Mrs. Rong to answer, Huo Xian had already left the flower hall with the maid, leaving only the little maid at the door and Mrs. Rong and her party.
After Huo Xian left, Mrs. Rong immediately left the Huo Mansion, "Why should Madame be angry with her, as long as Miss wins the Holy Grace, she can't hold on to us." The maid's heart is also high, and she also has a lot of dissatisfaction with Huo Xian.
"But a maid was born, why bother with her, lose her identity, I want to see the daughter of a maid, even if it is framed with a gold frame, what can it be?" At this time, he was completely different from the people in Fang Caihuo's Mansion, and his words were full of disdain, "Others don't know, but I know that if the Empress Dowager Shangguan knew how her grandmother died, I don't know what would happen?" This drama is getting more and more exciting. Mrs. Rong's face was full of pride, and she was even more looking forward to what Huo Xian would do.
Huo Chengjun and Shangguan Youhao didn't know at all that they were already being calculated, and they only cared about laughing with Xu Pingjun to relieve their boredom, with Huo Chengjun's arrival, Liu Ying was already a lot relieved, at least when he was not there, there could be someone by her side, after such a long time, Liu Cheng had completely trusted Huo Chengjun, and he was also relieved to let Xu Pingjun be alone with her, in Liu Chengjun's heart, Huo Chengjun was just a woman with a young lady's temper, and her mind was still simple.
Xu Pingjun and Huo Chengjun are also at ease with each other, in Xu Pingjun's heart, Huo Chengjun is not like those famous ladies, and people who are not familiar with her only say that she is arrogant and extremely difficult to get along with, but those who are familiar with each other understand that she has a warm heart, and she is very lucky, she is one of those acquaintances.
The stamens of the plum blossoms have bloomed a little bit in the cold winter, Huo Chengjun has nothing to do, so he went to the plum garden to fold a few white plums, she knew that Liu Yi and Huo Chengjun both liked white plums, after pruning and pruning, she found a white bottle from the Shangguan Palace, inserted the flowers into the vase, and placed them in front of the window.
Xu Pingjun, who was lying on the bed, took in the change in her expression, "Chengjun, what are you laughing at, you also like this flower?" At a glance, this small plum blossom seems to be able to add some vitality to the room.
"I like red plums." Huo Chengjun let go, "Well, look, you can enjoy the flowers in the room, you can watch it slowly bloom, and you won't get cold, I have to ask Your Majesty for a reward." As he spoke, he walked to the front of Xu Pingjun's collapse.
"The red plum garden in the palace, in a few days, it will definitely be good-looking, and my body should be good at that time, accompany you to see the red plum, but reward?" Xu Pingjun looked at Huo Chengjun with a smile, but the last sentence was obviously defending Liu Ai.
Huo Chengjun pouted, obviously dissatisfied, "Then you want to send me away, this can't be done, Hongmei, I can let Youhao accompany me to appreciate, no matter how bad it is, there is also Songwan, you still have to take good care of your body, this reward, when I meet Your Majesty, I will mention it to him, but I can't let you worry about it." ”
Xu Pingjun could only shake his head, Huo Chengjun's mouth was really not something he could deal with, and after leaving the Jiaofang Palace, Huo Chengjun walked and came to the Red Plum Garden, at this time the red plum blossoms opened only a few, compared with the enthusiasm to bloom, it is a unique charm, at this time, a red plum forest is full of small buds, like a shy woman, but there is a different kind of tranquility and elegance, Huo Chengjun couldn't help but sit down on the stone bench on the side, looking at the scenery of the garden, some thoughts gradually spread to his heart, But in the end, it ended with her smiling.
Get up, under a tree, look at the ground for a long time, and then say to Yunling, "Yunling, go back to Changxin Palace", and then the master and servant walked on this familiar road, but this road, no matter how many times they walked, the mood is always different, maybe it is this time and again that I understand what growth is.
