275 Brilliant in the world
The spring cicadas hid among the lush branches, occasionally making one or two faint chirps, Fang Xing looked up at the silhouette of the entire sleeping palace, and a trace of fluctuation passed on his indifferent face, as if the sparkling water surface of the dragonfly in early summer was barely visible.
"King Yu."
"I've seen Concubine Yue."
Fang Xing's figure who wanted to leave paused, looked back with a faint expression, was stunned for a moment, then turned around and bowed, and when Fang Xing finished saluting, Concubine Yue had already paced towards her, with a shallow smile on her face.
Dressed in a moon-white long skirt, the shoulder sleeves are embroidered with a pattern of dark patterns of entwined lotus, only a gold-inlaid green hosta is pinned to the slightly coiled bun, and the white jade earrings on the cheeks are lined with the fair complexion of Concubine Yue, and she holds two large-flowered crape myrtles in her hands.
Concubine Yue walked in the shade of the tree, the sun shined through the sparse branches and leaves, pouring colorful light and shadow on her body, and her face was not as pale as when Fang Xing saw her for the first time.
"Why is King Yu here?"
"Concubine Tongde, please come here for a while."
Fang Xing secretly swallowed her saliva, she was beating the emperor and leaving, before Zhan Shi in the East Palace said that the emperor had an accident, but Fang Xing was so shocked that he couldn't do it, and hurried to the palace quickly, not wanting the emperor to just twist his foot, but this is also a big thing, and Fang Xing has to enter the palace every day to ask for peace.
Concubine Yue smiled half-hidden, Fang Xing didn't know if she was aware of her white lies, only looking at Concubine Yue in front of her who was smiling and looking picturesque, Fang Xing shouted in her heart that fate was really unfair, originally looking at the concubine's appearance was already a country and a city, compared to Concubine Yue's beautiful face, it was really inferior.
"Then it's better to sit inside, this palace is still thinking about how today's crape myrtle flowers are so beautiful, it turns out that you are here."
"The mother laughed."
Probably the color of the crape myrtle is very similar to the color of Fang Xing's clothes, Concubine Yue inexplicably pulled to this layer, but Concubine Yue, who moved back to live in the palace, was obviously much more cheerful and bright, Fang Xing didn't care what reason Concubine Yue found to invite, she looked so good-looking, everything was right!
"Niang Niangshi only knew it was me?"
"There are only three people in this palace who can wear such clothes, it's not you, who else can it be."
The corners of Concubine Yue's lips couldn't help revealing a happy smile, as if she was impressed by her own intelligence and wit, like a child who didn't know anything about the world, Fang Xing deeply realized the meaning of the word "red face and troubled water", seeing Concubine Yue, she didn't even want to turn her brain, the black robe, the golden Shoushan sea python pattern, it is true that only the three people above the status of the prince can wear it.
"The mother is smart.."
"However, Hongu didn't actually think of you at first.."
Fang Xing's heart tightened slightly, and he immediately thought of Bai Yumo, the first thing Concubine Yue thought of must be him, but seeing that he is often wearing an ink robe now, he doesn't know that when he was a teenager, he always wore such bright colors, and the patterns that belonged to him were painted.
What can't go back is yesterday, Fang Xing sighed faintly, passed by two groups of eunuchs who knelt down and saluted her, and only noticed that something was wrong after a while, only frowned and glanced back, and then walked inside with Concubine Yue across the threshold of the palace.
"See His Royal Highness King Yu."
"See His Royal Highness King Yu."
The palace maids waiting in the sleeping hall all bowed to Fang Xing, Fang Xing was silent, and looked at Concubine Yue beside him, Concubine Yue just walked past the palace people who ignored her with a smile, as if she was used to such a scene and didn't care at all.
"You sit."
"Xie Niangniang."
After entering the main hall, Concubine Yue was busy looking for something, and after a while, she found a white porcelain vase, and inserted the two crape myrtle flowers that she had held in her hand for a long time.
Seeing Concubine Yue clumsily pouring water into the porcelain bottle over there, Fang Xing couldn't help but smile faintly, it was really hard to imagine that she would be Bai Yumo's mother, except for her appearance, of course! But fairies just don't eat the fireworks of the world.
Fang Xing was bored for a while, got up and walked around the main hall, it was indeed much better than here in the palace, the furnishings that should be in line with the concubine's position were there, and there was no trace of dust on the table frame, which showed that those people were not lazy in addition to disrespecting the concubine.
A few extremely light voices drilled into his ears, Fang Xing thought at first that there was something wrong with his hearing, this is the palace, how can there be... Only the excited shouts continued to come this way, and Fang Xing's dark eyes were mixed with anger, and he knocked on the door and walked towards the apse.
"Great! Big! Big! ”
"Small! Small.."
Several eunuchs gathered in a pile of shouting dice, the corners of Fang Xing's mouth twitched slightly, and quietly walked to them, it seemed that the senses had a special warning of the coming danger, one of the eunuchs raised his head unintentionally, and only bounced up in a moment, and hurriedly dragged the other people.
"References to ginseng. . . See His Royal Highness King Yu. ”
"See His Royal Highness King Yu!"
The dice were touched and fell to the ground, several eunuchs were scared half to death between their side eyes, and knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Fang Xing again and again to say goodbye, and the young people didn't hear Fang Xing's reaction, a few people, you look at me, I look at you, and tentatively raised his eyelids, but saw that Fang Xing was calming his face, looking at them coldly, several people were startled, and hurriedly lowered their heads.
"What are you doing?"
"Minions. . . Slaves should be damned, ignorant and greedy for fun for a while, please forgive His Royal Highness King Yu! ”
Fang Xing's tone was very ordinary, and there was no trace of harshness, but these few people were so frightened that they immediately buried their foreheads on the ground, and one of them replied in a trembling voice, and the others nodded with Nuo Nuo, and secretly scolded the person who played dice with Zhang Luo today countless times in their hearts.
Fang Xing's face became difficult to look at, the world was cold, just imagine if Fang Xing disposed of these minions for Concubine Yue at this moment, but Fang Xing will not be there in the future, the palace rules are so strict, they dare to do this, it means that someone must have hinted above. Thinking of this, although Fang Xing didn't want to cause trouble, he wanted to punish him even more!
"King Yu? Tea is ready. ”
"Yes."
A laughing voice came from behind Fang Xing, and several eunuchs who were drenched in cold sweat suddenly felt that they had a savior, and raised their eyes to look at the Yue Concubine Niangniang on the side, Fang Xingying turned around and swept the kneeling eunuchs on the ground one by one.
"King Yu.."
"Here we are."
Fang Xing was speechless, so he had to stalk the anger in his throat, and turned around to see Concubine Yue raising his hand to send the eunuchs on the ground, those people were relieved, staggered up and ran towards the side hall, there was no trace of grudge in their hearts except fear, and naturally, there was no gratitude to Concubine Yue.
"How is the mother?"
"Much better.."
The smile between Concubine Yue's eyebrows was as bright as Chunhua, without a hint of reluctance, she was really a good-tempered lord, but this sentence was much better, was it compared to when she was locked up in the palace, or when the Ning family was still in this harem... Fortunately, the queen and the concubine are both noble people, and they will not bully Concubine Yue like the Ning family, and they will indeed live much better.
"That's right.. King Yu often walks around outside the palace, have you ever seen him? ”
"I've seen..."
Concubine Yue muttered in her mouth, hearing Fang Xing's words, the jade hand holding the tea cup stopped in mid-air for a moment, and her expression quickly recovered and took a sip of tea, Fang Xing clearly saw it, and saw a trace of emotion on Concubine Yue's face, which should not belong to a touch of sadness that she would have in the world.
Fang Xing waited for a long time, but he didn't see Concubine Yue continue to mention it, so he had to block all the words back, just asking if he had seen it, as if Fang Xing had replied that he had seen it, as if Concubine Yue had seen it herself, it was enough to satisfy Concubine Yue.
"His body is very healthy, if the mother wants.."
"I don't want to."
The emotion in Concubine Yue's eyes increased greatly, so she had to turn her eyes to look out the window, and the smile on her lips gradually became stronger. Fang Xing was slightly shocked, this is really a mother and son, it is clear that they can't remember, and everything they do is so simply rejected to her..
"No one will blame me, don't worry about me."
"No, it's not."
Concubine Yue's autumn-like eyes fell in Fang Xing's eyes, clear and bright, flawless, but Concubine Yue was clearly looking at herself, but Fang Xing felt that Concubine Yue was looking at an ethereal world, and Concubine Yue herself was a fairy who accidentally fell into the mortal world, which did not belong here at all.
"For many years in the palace, I always looked at the sky in all directions. If it weren't for the change of the seasons around you, you would even think that time has long stood still. Time flies, but the life of this palace seems to be never finished, but in fact, it has already passed. ”
"King Mo remembers his mother."
Fang Xing suddenly felt that his heart was cold, Concubine Yue took her through the difficult years of the past few years in a few words, she also had the most profound and warm feelings, the perfect husband, the proud son, if life also needs to distinguish the four seasons, Concubine Yue's life before Bai Yumo was fifteen years old was full of spring and summer, full of affection and sweetness.
And it was precisely Bai Yumo's young talent who calmed down the war in the countries in one fell swoop, but the emperor kicked their mother and son from the clouds with one kick, and since then, for Concubine Yue, for Bai Yumo, there is no difference between a year, a month, a day, and a moment.
"Really?"
"Yes."
Concubine Yue's calm expression was almost cold, it was true that she didn't believe it at all, Fang Xing had investigated, the emperor had promised Bai Yumo that she could visit Concubine Yue every year, but at first they had met two or three times, but later because of the knot in their hearts, they felt that it was better not to see it.
What Fang Xing didn't know was that in their hearts there was not only longing, but also hatred for each other.
