Chapter 64: The Flute
After Huo Chengjun left the Taoist temple, he went straight to Huo Mansion, but unfortunately he was one step away from Song Wan, and he could meet; She was covered in dust, but she was not tired, and after greeting Huo Guanghuo Xian, she went to the courtyard, but in addition to the two maids behind her, there were also many Huo Yu.
"Eighth sister, tell me about the fun on the mountain?" When Huo Yu saw Huo Chengjun leave for so many days, he thought that she was only caring about the color of the mountain, and did not want to come back, where did she think that she was trapped by the snow on the mountain.
Huo Chengjun stopped his pace, turned around suddenly, and almost collided with Huo Yu, pretending to be angry, "The scenery on the mountain is good, but if my brother feels trapped in the snow and wants to live in the Taoist temple for a long time, it is not too late to go at this time." Looking up at Huo Yu, who was half a head taller than him, he pouted and stared straight at Huo Yu with wide eyes.
"Good sister, I was wrong, it's cold outside, it's better to go in quickly." Although he is not afraid of Huo Chengjun being angry, how can Huo Yu let her be angry with herself for no reason, this is not to block herself, and hurriedly begged for mercy, plus Huo Yu has not forgotten that Huo Chengjun has been suffering from cold and sick for several days before, where do you dare to let her stand in this cold wind for a long time, plus the sky is getting darker, the cold is getting heavier.
Huo Chengjun turned around, but her light steps revealed her good mood, "Brother, what trouble have you made, let me go and clean up for you, or go to Daddy's place to intercede?" There was a bit of provocation in his eyes.
Huo Yu couldn't help but glance at Huo Chengjun, "You girl, why don't you look forward to some good things, and I protect you like this!" Having said that, anyone can see that Huo Yu is just joking, and the brother and sister sing and harmonize for one night.
After Song returned to the palace, Shangguan Youhao's face became more and more solemn, there were only three days before the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, how could there be time to see her again, but this delay did not know what would happen, Shangguan Youhao knew that this matter could not be delayed any longer, so he wanted to go to the Jiaofang Hall to ask Xu Pingjun this party, if there was nothing to do, it would be good; If even Xu Pingjun is aware of it, it can only be said that good and evil are rewarded.
Shangguan has a hazy white fur cloak, and the cyan step hangs down the thin tassels, step by step, showing the elegance, and when he arrives in the Jiaofang Palace, he can't help frowning, and he always feels that the hall is empty, too elegant, "Pingjun, why are there so few ornaments in your room, but the palace people are disadvantaged?" His eyes were slightly stunned, and he looked at the waiter who was standing with his hands down.
Xu Pingjun hurriedly said, "It has nothing to do with them, I'm afraid I'm going to return to Changding Palace in the next year, so I moved some things over and arranged them, which will be so simple." A smile still hangs on his face, but the weakness seeps into the smile, and there is no warmth, only more pity.
Shangguan Youhao was even more puzzled, "Your Majesty can know, what is the good way to go back to Changding Palace, is it not that the people of Jiaofang Palace are not well served, so you have not been well, if so, you tell me which one it is, I will not spare it!" ”
"He knows the illness, and it has nothing to do with others, I just feel that Changding Palace is more comfortable to live in, and when I entered the palace, I was there, which is quite a bit of a former residence." Xu Pingjun explained, Shangguan Youhao had also sat down on the wooden bench next to the bed.
"Do you feel better than you used to?" Shangguan Youhao only felt that the uneasiness in his heart was greater, so he stopped going around the bend and asked each other directly.
"I know what you're worried about, I've already tasted my decoction myself, and there's no problem, but it's my own body that doesn't fight for it, and if I want to get better, I'll get better, but this year you're the only one to do, and I can't help much." Xu Pingjun was a little apologetic, she also knew how many things Shangguan Youhao and these people needed Zhang Luo, although there were palace people available, but what one thing didn't need her to have a purpose?
"These are nothing, I usually have been Zhang Luo, but just change some things, your body is very tight, a few days ago the nurse took the child to the Changxin Palace, the mother only called the queen mother in her mouth, and the child still needs you to accompany her." After listening to Xu Pingjun's explanation, Shangguan Youhao's uneasy heart calmed down a little, thinking that Xu was so relieved of the pain of losing his son, so he persuaded Liu Zheng as an excuse.
The three-day scene is fleeting, the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet gathers thousands of families, but the son Lang is still at the border pass can only send a bottle of sake from afar, see the stars in the cold night sky, and then tell the heroic story of the distant son, perhaps more imagination, in the Han Palace, a clear flute, melodious, mellow and tactful, causing Liu Ill and Xu Pingjun to listen to it, and the person who played the flute was Shangguan You.
I saw her lips closed with the tune, as if she was an independent person, she blew the song, put away the flute, and then said to the two, "See and laugh, this flute was left by the first emperor, and when I saw it today, I played a song." "The flute in Shangguan Youhao's hand is a male and female flute, which should be a pair, and after Emperor Zhao died, another male flute has entered the mausoleum with Emperor Zhao, and this female flute is in Shangguan Youhao's hand.
"I'm sick, you won't leave me alone like the first emperor, will you?" After Shangguan Yu left, Xu Pingjun asked half-leaning on Liu Aiji's chest, looking up at Liu Aiji, she didn't want to be alone in the world, and Xu Pingjun's dependence on Liu Aiji also made it impossible for her to survive well in a world without Liu Aiji.
"Fool, what do you think?" Liu Yi has smiled, holding her tighter, Xu Pingjun also reflected a sweet smile, but his heart is a hundred turns, looking at another year of fire trees and silver flowers, looking at the brightly lit Han Palace, I always feel that this year is less joyful, add a wisp of sorrow, Xu is a worry of the Han Palace, Xu is a touch of concern for the thinking of thousands of people in the world, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve, also seems more heavy.
From night to dawn, I thought that the New Year would be sunny, but when I got up in the morning, it was covered with a thin layer of snow, the snow was not big, but it was quite surprising, for Huo Chengjun, who already loved snow, he was very happy, but Huo Guang was more worried, this snow, I was afraid of adding a little inconvenience to the dinner party.
In this banquet, Shangguan Youhao finally saw Huo Chengjun, halfway through the banquet, Shangguan Youhao handed Huo Chengjun a look, and the two left one after the other, so that the two Huo Xian naturally would not miss it, but she didn't say anything, and she didn't order anyone to stop her, she just smiled and drank the wine in the glass, and her eyes fell on Xu Pingjun as if nothing.
Just when Huo Xian retracted his gaze, he happened to meet the gaze cast by Mrs. Rong, Mrs. Rong hurriedly lowered her head, and then raised her hand again, and drank it all, Huo Xian didn't think much about it, and looked away with a polite smile, she was looking for a figure, but for some reason, she didn't see it after looking around, so she didn't have time to care about Mrs. Rong drinking the elixir and raising the empty cup, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes.
When Huo Chengjun followed Shangguan to a no-man's land not far from the banquet place, Fang stopped, in fact, tonight, everyone in the palace was busy with this first banquet, and they didn't dare to make any mistakes, and many places were quiet and quiet, and there were few people.
"Chengjun, does your grandfather still have the idea of sending you to the harem?" It's not good to leave for too long, and as soon as she stopped, Shangguan Youhao couldn't wait to ask what she wanted to ask this morning, but what she didn't ask was "Do you have this idea too?"
"Poof" Huo Chengjun couldn't help but chuckle, he thought that Shangguan Youhao was frowning all night, what was the big deal, it was just for this matter, "How could I fly into this cage stupidly, my father didn't mean it, he also told me about the marriage a few years ago, and the people chosen are the ones you saw last time, what does it have to do with this palace." ”
After Huo Chengjun said this, Shangguan Youhao relieved his heart, a Huo Xian could not turn the sky, but if she had Huo Guang's support behind her, it would be difficult to break, "Your mother is only afraid that this year has not been dispelled, she also entered the palace to tell me about this before, I wanted to look for you earlier, but you have left Huo Mansion, so I have to give up." Shangguan Youhao didn't say what Huo Xian said that day, but just gave Huo Chengjun a wake-up call, and at the same time thought about finding Huo Guang another day, Huo Xian was afraid that only Huo Guang could hold it down.
Sure enough, Huo Chengjun's little face was full of the word "accident", "I understand, my mother will leave it to me." Huo Chengjun also had a headache, and she had already told Huo Xian, but why couldn't she let it go, she thought that she had destroyed these thoughts, but who knew that she would bring up the old things again, and at this time, Xu Pingjun had not recovered, what did she want to do, did she want to let herself take advantage of the situation, and let herself be despised by the world? For a while, Huo Chengjun couldn't wait to find a crack to drill into.
"Alright, let's go back quickly, so as not to arouse suspicion." I didn't want the two of them to meet Huo Xian on the road, who was also going back to the banquet place, Huo Xian's face did not change, but Shangguan Youhao and Huo Chengjun were surprised, especially Shangguan Youhao, I always felt that Huo Xian was not just coming out to breathe.
This banquet finally ended in their own thoughts, Huo Chengjun was about to leave, but Xu Pingjun stopped her, so let Yunling and Huo Guang Huo Xian say a word, wait outside the palace, and then follow Xu Pingjun to the Jiaofang Palace, into the hall, Huo Chengjun's reaction was expected by Xu Pingjun, and it was not much different from Shangguan Youyou.
"Don't be surprised, there will be no one in the Jiaofang Palace after the year, and I will also go back to Changding Palace, so I will move many things to Changding Palace." Xu Pingjun spoke weakly and sat down to the side.
"It's enough to re-install the Changding Palace, why bother moving it around, he will return to the Jiaofang Palace in the future, and add another thing." Huo Chengjun really felt that there was no need to be like this, Xu Pingjun of Jiaofang Hall would have to come back sooner or later, which would be tiring.
Xu Pingjun just smiled, didn't speak, leaned on the table beside him, his eyes narrowed slightly, he seemed to have no energy to talk to Huo Chengjun, Huo Chengjun was also afraid that she would be too tired, so he wanted to leave, who knew that Xu Pingjun opened his eyes, dismissed the palace maids and eunuchs around, and only said that he still had something to say to Huo Chengjun.
Huo Chengjun saw that Xu Pingjun was so cautious, just as it was a serious matter, he immediately straightened his face, walked a few steps closer, and knew that the question he heard in his ears made Huo Chengjun want to go up and touch Xu Pingjun if he had a fever.
