Chapter 1 May I mourn with white plums
It was the winter of the third year, coinciding with the heavy snowfall, Liu Ill had already looked out of Changding Palace, the cold plum and the snow were stacked outside the window, wrapped in silver, a piece of clean, Liu Ill had no intention of appreciating, only the dead branches of the residual plum in the bottle of the last year had not been thrown away, and this room where Xu Pingjun stayed last also became a forbidden place for others, and became a golden lock that imprisoned Liu Ill's heart; After Xu Pingjun passed away, Liu Ying often came here to spend the night, quietly enjoying the loneliness that belonged to a person, recalling the bits and pieces left here with Xu Pingjun, and often reddened his eyes in the middle of the night.
"Pingjun, they actually let me accept it again, in this life, except for you, how can I want anyone else!" Liu Ill has been talking to himself to that remnant plum, yesterday Bing Ji entered the palace, persuaded Liu Ill that it was time to re-admit, Liu Ill was unwilling, some prevarication, and then perfunctory, but he also knew in his heart that there was a Bing Ji who would say this, and there would be a second person.
Bing Ji is just a person who pushes the boat along the river, he knows in his heart what Huo Xian's big move is, and maybe only if Huo Xian's wish is fulfilled, there will be no greater tragedy, and Huo Chengjun is indeed a good candidate, plus after Xu Pingjun passed away, when Huo Chengjun entered the palace, he would occasionally meet Liu Ai, and the two could also talk a few words, seeing that Liu Ai had not rejected Huo Chengjun, Bing Ji thought about being this matchmaker, but Bing Ji had not yet said the queen's candidate, he had been politely rejected by Liu Ai, and it was not easy to say much, Just waiting for the next opportunity to come.
The day that Bing Ji is looking forward to is also coming quickly, Wusun because of the last war, saw the strength of the Han, so he moved the idea of making peace with the Han, and personally married the Han woman to Wusun, this time the king of Wusun came to marry in person, the Han should set up a banquet to entertain, on the banquet, Wusun put forward his own request, in this, Liu Yi has agreed; Bing Ji took advantage of this time, and said to Liu Ai, "Your Majesty, good things are in pairs, King Wusun wants to marry the queen, mourn the death of the queen for nearly a year, my Han can not be without a queen, the minister thinks that the general's daughter is just right, the county lord did not enter the palace due to illness, and now the county lord is not married, there is no queen in the palace, the minister thinks that this is the fate of heaven, please think twice." ”
In fact, there is no need for Bing Ji to say, everyone also understands in their hearts that Liu Ill has not been established, otherwise the queen will fall on Huo Chengjun's head, or Huo Chengjun has not married for anything, they all thought that it was because of the position of the queen, although there was a lot of discussion for a while, and there were many seconders, but Liu Ill has already understated, "Today is the king of Wusun to my Han to ask for marriage, and the rest of the things do not need to be said, and the queen has passed away for less than a year, I have no such heart for the time being." Liu Yi has clearly refused, since there will be no one who is not interesting, besides, even General Huo agrees with what His Majesty said, and there are outsiders in front of him, of course he will not contradict the emperor, and they all sat down for a while.
On the second day, Bing Ji went to Huofu, "Zimeng, what are your plans?" If Chengjun doesn't enter the palace, will your lady give up, is it possible that she still wants to harm another person? ”
Hearing Bing Ji's words, Huo Guang broke out in a cold sweat, "Shaoqing, Your Majesty also knows your Majesty's affection for Empress Gongwai, Chengjun is my favorite daughter, how can I bear to let her be snubbed in the harem?" Huo Guang thinks more about his daughter's happiness, although he also understands the current situation, but he wants to use his daughter's future as a bargaining chip, but Huo Guang is unwilling, this is the most precious thing in his life, how can he be willing to destroy her.
"Eh......" Bing Ji sighed, and after a long time, he left Huo's mansion, and he understood Lao Huo's thoughts, so he didn't say more, and he wouldn't mention it again in front of His Majesty.
Huo Chengjun entered the palace again on this day to be accompanied by Shangguan Youhao, since Xu Pingjun left, Huo Chengjun felt that Shangguan Youhao had few people to accompany him, although there were not many times to really talk to Xu Pingjun, but he was a person who could talk, but Huo Chengjun himself didn't know if she really entered the palace just for Shangguan Youhao?
Walking on the way to the palace gate with Yunling, they suddenly saw Liu Ai, who was alone, without an umbrella, braving the snow to move forward, until a place full of white plums stopped, and Huo Chengjun also silently followed him to this place, watching his sadness gradually emanate, watching his thoughts gradually overflowing, watching the tenderness when his fingers brushed the white plum, Huo Chengjun envied Xu Pingjun from the bottom of his heart, even if he left, he could still let him be so concerned, and Liu Cheng had never found himself behind him from beginning to end, and the corners of his mouth were involved in a bitter arc, Still staring at the people in the snow.
Huo Chengjun didn't know how long he stood like this, until Liu Yi had come out of this piece of white plum, he found Huo Chengjun standing aside with an umbrella, and he said, "You came with me?" Then the good-looking eyebrows were tightly twisted together.
Huo Chengjun was startled, the paper umbrella in his hand swayed, and the first thing he thought of was to kneel down and ask for peace, but he didn't want Liu Yi to reach out to help, "It's a snowy day, these don't have to be, it's just right here, I have something to tell you." ”
"I remember the last time you and I met here, it was because of the matter of Pingjun, you were still angry at that time, and now you also think of this harem?"
Huo Chengjun was stunned for a moment, she didn't understand what Liu Youji was referring to, but under Liu Yao's scrutiny, she suddenly remembered what Shangguan Youhao had said to herself, although Shangguan Youhao only implicitly mentioned that someone asked His Majesty to establish a new post last night, and now it is related to Liu Youji's words, and she also guessed probably.
"Whether the courtiers want to or not is not a matter of His Majesty's words, when will it be up to me to decide?" Huo Chengjun was inevitably sour, it turned out that the person he repeatedly refused was himself, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the courtiers would rather marry a commoner than enter the palace." Huo Chengjun didn't know how ridiculous her words were when she looked back at this time.
"Those white plums were planted by His Majesty's orders?" didn't want to continue this topic, Huo Chengjun turned to the white plum.
Liu Yi has fallen into deep memories, "I once thought that Pingjun was the woman under the plum blossoms, but Pingjun told me before leaving that she was not, I don't blame her, but even so, I am still willing to send condolences to Baimei." It doesn't matter whether it's anymore, her five-year companionship by his side is something that no one can replace.
"Your Majesty still wants to find the people of that time?"
"We will meet by fate."
Huo Chengjun only thought that he didn't care about those things anymore, and only thought that the person he identified was Xu Pingjun, and only said, "Your Majesty has a heart, you will definitely be able to find it, if Your Majesty has nothing to do, the courtiers will retire first." After a salute, he turned and left.
Liu Ai had already looked at the figure in the distance, and always felt that her words were a little familiar, but he thought again and again that this was just because he had seen it, or that her back was a little similar to Xu Pingjun, Liu Ai had already remembered what Xu Pingjun said before leaving, "The person who folded the plum" was not Huo Chengjun, "Pingjun, do you really want her to enter the palace?" Do you really think she's a trustworthy person? You have been gone for less than a year, she can't wait, how do you know if she treats you sincerely in this world? In fact, Liu Yi didn't know whether Huo Chengjun should believe it or not, and a voice in his heart told him that this girl was not that kind of philistine, but he was afraid of believing the wrong person, so he would rather choose not to believe it from the beginning.
Once, Xu Pingjun was the person he believed in, Xu Pingjun was simple-minded, but even people like her had the heart to poison him; Therefore, Liu Yi no longer dared to believe anyone.
"You want to enter the palace and accompany the king? Chengjun, why do you bother to practice yourself like this? Han Zeng was also there at the dinner that day, but he didn't speak, and when he looked for Huo Chengjun the next day, he only said that she had entered the palace, and it would be another day before they could meet.
Huo Chengjun squinted, "In your eyes, I am such a person?" She could see that Han Zeng would say this because of years of friendship, and asked rhetorically, and after seeing Han Zeng speechless, she spoke quietly, "Pingjun once asked me to accompany Your Majesty more after she left, I don't know what she meant, but I agreed." Huo Chengjun thought that at that time, he might have been selfish.
"Do you know that the emperor has always been a dangerous person, Chengjun, I am afraid that you will one day be like Empress Wei."
"I'm not stupid!" The curvature of Huo Chengjun's clever smile on the corner of his mouth is very beautiful, as brilliant as the red plum that blooms in winter, and as pure and elegant as a narcissus.
It's just that after the year, Huo Chengjun's peace was suddenly broken, and he came so unexpectedly, knocked on Huo Guang's study door, and asked with a little questioning, "Father, do you really want your daughter to enter the palace?" Is it really as outsiders say, fame, fortune and wealth are more important than anything else, my daughter has always thought that my father is not such a person, but I didn't think that today, my father knows His Majesty's intentions, but he still insists on this, and my daughter doesn't want to! Huo Chengjun expressed her protest, hoping that Huo Guang could change his mind, and she also saw the pity and reluctance in Huo Guang's eyes, but because of this, she couldn't figure out why she sent herself into the deep palace?
Huo Guang didn't have time to explain to Huo Chengjun, Huo Xian's voice had already sounded behind Huo Chengjun, "Chengjun, your father and mother are all for your good, do you know that position is something that many people can't climb up to in their lifetimes, but you have it at your fingertips, do you say you should thank your father and mother?" Huo Xian didn't care about Huo Chengjun's questioning, she would come here, because she was afraid that Huo Guang would give up the idea of letting her enter the palace because of Huo Chengjun's few words.
"Mother, the daughter is unwilling, the daughter will go to His Majesty to explain!" After saying that, Huo Chengjun wanted to grab the door and go out, but he was stopped by Huo Xian's order.
"Chengjun, do you remember that you once said that marriage matters are all up to your parents, is it possible that you are going to regret it today, you must know that everything your mother does is for you, you don't have to know what to do!" Huo Xian was already angered by Huo Chengjun, and his sharp eyes were a little accusatory, "Go back and reflect on yourself!" ”
How could Huo Chengjun do what Huo Xian wished, when people were not paying attention, he left Huo's Mansion and went to the palace, first, to seek a way from Shangguan Youhao; The second is that she wanted to explain it clearly to Liu Yi, but after entering the palace, Huo Chengjun regretted it, and her world slowly changed......
