CHAPTER XLIV
This time, Daddy was hard-hearted, and Aunt Song couldn't persuade her, so I also admitted it.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Yi went to the Queen Mother today."
Chu Hanyuan was cold and arrogant with a hint of resentment: "He actually went to Kunning Palace in broad daylight, and he really had no face and no skin, do you know why he went?" ”
Gonggong Li's eyes froze: "According to the palace maids, His Royal Highness King Yi seems to have led a person to Kunning Palace!" ”
"Who?"
"Nam Sang's daughter!"
Chu Hanyuan's eyes turned downward thoughtfully: "Nanxiang's daughter? My sixth brother is usually so wooden that he can't even name a girl's family, how can he fall in love with Nanxiang's daughter, isn't it enlightened? ”
Gonggong Li stepped forward: "Could it be that His Royal Highness King Yi is trying to win over the Southern Minister?" ”
Turned around and sneered: "Wooing? Chu Muxiu was as arrogant as the vicious wolf on the Tianshan Mountain, he couldn't do it if he begged for something like this. ”
"Your Majesty, knowing people and faces but not hearts, ten years is enough to change a person's heart. Regarding Concubine Feng Shu back then, His Royal Highness King Yi didn't say anything on the surface, I am afraid that he has already hated you. ”
Chu Hanyuan's face wrinkled: "I don't rule out this possibility", turned to Gonggong Li, "Does Nanxiang's daughter have a marriage match?" ”
"Originally, I heard that it was promised to the son of General Lu's family, but on the day of marriage, the young lady of the Nan family contracted a cold, so the southern minister postponed the marriage, and there has been no movement since then."
Chu Hanyuan looked like he had a premeditated plan: "Okay, the son of the Lu family ......"
I lay on the wooden table by the window, holding the pen weakly: "Women have four elements, one day of women's virtue, two days of women's words, three days of women's appearance, and four days of women's ......"
"Hey!"
A face swooped in front of me, "Oh my God," I was so frightened that my hand shook and the pen fell, and I looked up at the window, "Chu Muxiu, why are you here, no one sees you, right?" ”
"Nope!"
I slapped my chest with my hand and breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good!"
Chu Muxiu stuck his head in through the window and handed me a bag of pine cakes: "Here you go!" ”
"Songhua cake!" I was so happy that I forgot to pick up the pen, and took out the pine cake from the bag to eat.
"Did your daddy punish you when you came back?" Chu Muxiu asked me.
I swallowed the pine cake: "My father punished me for being grounded for half a month." Pointing to the women's training on the table that had not been copied, he stretched out two fingers, "My father also punished me for copying the women's training, twenty times, twenty times!" ”
Chu Muxiu thought thoughtfully: "Hmm...... It's time for you to copy the women's training! ”
In the past, I hoped that Chu Muxiu would smile more, but now that he laughs, I am very angry: "You can still laugh, although I begged you to take me into the palace this time, but half of the responsibility lies with you. If you had persuaded me, I might not have to suffer this sin! ”
Chu Muxiu was helpless: "I have persuaded you several times, but obviously you don't listen!" ”
"Yes, I don't care anyway, this matter just has nothing to do with you!" I picked up the brush from the ground and said, "If you want to atone for your sins, then you can copy the women's training for me!" ”
Chu Muxiu retracted his head from the window for a moment: "This is your father's punishment for you, not for me, why should I help you copy it!" ”
I climbed down the stool to the window: "Just copy it, just copy it once, I've copied it all afternoon" I shook my hand vigorously, looking pitiful, "Look at my hands, they are all about to break, you can pity me, my broken hands are not good for you!" ”
Chu Muxiu pursed his lips: "Then, just copy it once, just do it again." ”
"Just over and over again!" I nodded repeatedly.
Chu Muxiu suddenly climbed in from the window, I handed him the brush, he sat upright, glued the ink and began to write.
I sat next to me and started to eat Songhua cake while watching him copy the women's training, in fact, I felt that it was really a little difficult for Chu Muxiu, I didn't care about him, I forced the crime on him. But he was also strange, so sharp and sharp when dealing with the queen's mother, but in the face of such an unreasonable request from me, he actually agreed.
He seemed to gradually open his heart and gradually began to communicate with me, but I seemed to understand him sometimes and sometimes I didn't understand him.
I held the pine flower cake in my hand and walked up to look at the rice paper he wrote: "You can't copy it like this!" ”
Chu Muxiu was puzzled: "Why not, did I copy it wrong or did I copy it too ugly?" ”
I put half a piece of pine cake into my mouth: "Your writing is too good-looking, you have seen the words I write not look like you, if I show such a round and upright word to my father, he must not believe that I wrote it, you Qu Cai once wrote a little ugly!" ”
Chu Muxiu shook his head: "I've never heard of someone asking to write the words ugly!" ”
"I'm in a special situation, different from others, you can't hurt me!"
Chu Muxiu began to write again, and I stared at the side again, "Don't write that one so straight, write a little more crookedly on the side of the body, and then the one horizontal and one vertical is better not symmetrical." ”
Chu Mu leaned down: "Write like this?" ”
"The children can be taught!"
I said that I would only copy it once, but I didn't stop Chu Muxiu and had already written it about three times, "Chu Muxiu, my father asked me not to meet you in the future!" "I thought about it for a long time before I said it.
Chu Muxiu was stunned for a moment when he put away his pen, and the ink dripped on the rice paper, "Why?" ”
"Daddy didn't say it, and I don't know!"
Chu Muxiu began to copy the women's training again: "Then did you agree?"
I was afraid that Chu Muxiu would misunderstand and stood up suddenly: "Of course not, I'm not one of those people who only promise and don't know how to resist, don't underestimate me!" ”
Chu Muxiu raised his head and bowed his head: "Why?" ”
"Because I want to be with you!" Maybe I held this in my heart for too long, and suddenly it popped out of my mouth.
Chu Muxiu looked up at me, his eyes were so deep and empty. I don't know if he was happy or resentful, but his face became tighter and tighter, and the relaxed appearance on his face instantly dissipated, and his eyebrows wrinkled into figures. My face began to burn all of a sudden, and I regretted it when I first said it, but it was like water that had been spilled, and I could never take it back.
Chu Muxiu didn't speak for a long time, I was so nervous that I didn't know what to say, "Then, it's not too early, I, I should go to bed too, you can go back too!" ”
Chu Muxiu came back to his senses: "Oh, then I'll go first!" ”
I turned around and waved my hand: "Let's go, let's go!" ”
I only heard a "whoosh", and when I turned my head again, Chu Muxiu was gone, and this time he somehow slipped faster than a wild cat.
I collapsed on the bed and stared at the wall of the roof with wide eyes: "It's over, it's over, they all say that the girl's family should be reserved, I'm really ashamed, it's too embarrassing!" ”
On the way back to the house, Chu Muxiu's heart has been surging, and my words made him happy and worried, like a sunshine that warmed him, and like a cold wind blowing his bones.
"Your Highness, you are back, Your Majesty has been delayed for so long today, is Your Majesty embarrassed you again?" As soon as he entered the door, Qian Che caught up.
"Nope!"
"That's good, Taifu came to the house today, but you are not here, he will sit down and leave!"
"What did my uncle say?"
"Didn't say anything!"
The corners of Chu Muxiu's mouth flickered: "Hmm......"
Qian Che looked at Chu Muxiu: "You have been vaguely smiling since you entered the door, didn't you encounter something happy?" ”
Chu Muxiu folded his sleeves: "The weather is good today, I don't know why this mood has become comfortable!" ”
Qian Che looked up at the sky: "Your Highness is afraid that he is joking, today is obviously a cloudy day, and I haven't seen half of the daylight, why is the weather good?" ”
"Ahem......" Chu Muxiu coughed a few times.
Qian Che slowly turned his head down: "Your Highness is very right, don't say it, my mood has suddenly become better!" ”
"Go back to sleep, wouldn't it be better to sleep until dawn!" After Chu Muxiu finished speaking, he walked into the hall.
"Great!"
I saw Chu Muxiu again after a day, because of my words, I was a little uncomfortable when facing him, but he looked relaxed as if he was nothing, and then it wasn't like I had nothing to do with a few bags of pine cakes. During that time, Chu Muxiu came to help me copy the women's training every night, I copied it during the day, and he copied it for me at night, in fact, Chu Muxiu copied half of the women's training for me twenty times.
"Hey, do you know, I saw the same wolf bead as you at the queen mother that day!" When Chu Muxiu was copying women's training again, I asked him.
"You can see clearly, that wolf bead is rare in the world!" Chu Muxiu didn't raise his head, obviously not believing it.
I sat and then stood up: "I didn't believe it at first, but then I looked at it for a long time and realized that it was really the same. The queen mother told me that she brought it from Xiliang, saying that it was from the hands of Xiliang craftsmen, and that the craftsmen had worked hard to make two. ”
Chu Muxiu was puzzled, and thought silently in his heart, this wolf bead was originally made by Tianyue Skillful Craftsman, and why did she say that Xiliang said that this was simply a trick and a substitute.
"That's what she told you?" Chu Muxiu asked me again.
I said, "yes, I told her you have an identical one." She was delighted and told me about the history of the bead, and she said that there were only two in the world, and the reason why the craftsman only made two of them was so that those two destined people could meet! ”
Chu Muxiu turned his face: "So you mean that I and the queen are destined people as craftsmen say?" ”
"Yes, later you and the queen became brothers-in-law, do you say it's a coincidence?"
"There are so many coincidences in this world!"
"That's too," I thought for a moment, "just like you and me, I thought I would never see you again in my life, but we happened to meet again, and we went to the border together." ”
Speaking of the border, I thought of Xuanwu again: "I don't know how they are doing now, I don't know if it's raining there, I don't know ......if the small river on the mountain is dry or not, I don't know if the small river on the mountain has dried up."
"You're worried about a lot!"
"I'm not like you, shameless, heartless!"
He didn't speak, and copied the women's training with his head bored.
