Chapter 45: The Dragon Robe (Part II)
Longevity is like falling into a nightmare.
There is a white expanse all around, and I can't see where I am, is this foggy? As he stood there, he suddenly noticed that his hands and feet were small, like ...... Children's hands.
"Mama, where are you? Momma? ”
The little child stood there, panicked.
"Sixth Master, why are you here, the slave will take you back."
The eunuch's thin voice sounded behind him.
Zengshou was stunned for a moment: 'Yes...... Straight? “
"Yes, master, the slave is the son."
A hand grabbed his hand, it was a pair of cold hands, and Zengshou shouted: "Junko, your hands are so cold, it's freezing again." ”
"The slave is a cheap life, it's nothing to be cold, but it's the master, let's get out of here, there's fog everywhere and you can't see anything."
Junko took Zengshou's hand and left.
After walking for a while, there was still chaos around me.
Zengshou was a little afraid, in a trance he felt that this was himself when he was a child, and he seemed to have been at a loss in the chaos when he was a child.
"Junzi, are you eunuchs going to be cut off there?"
Junko's hand stiffened and forced a smile: "Why does the master ask like this." ”
"It's just curious."
Zeng Shou felt that it was too boring to walk aimlessly in such a white and vast weather, so he asked about the confusion he had been having.
From the time he was first sensible, his grandmother taught him not to ask others to look at his own body, not to anyone else, and not to look at other people's bodies.
"Sixth Master, you are the clan, you are the emperor of Tianhuang, your body is extremely noble, no one can see it, it is the old princess...... It doesn't work either. Mama squatted down and stared at the child's clear eyes, saying word by word.
The young longevity was a little incomprehensible, and asked with a wink: "The princess can't do it?" Didn't Mama say that I was born to a princess, and my own mother can't watch it? ”
"You are the master, no one can look at the master's body."
When he was seven years old, there was a little eunuch named Shunzi beside him, with a thin and weak body, a pale little face, and a pointed jaw, in Mama's words, he was a pitiful child.
If you are a eunuch if you are cut down there, then is you a eunuch?
Zengshou didn't say the bottom of his heart to Shunzi, because since he was a child, his grandmother has repeatedly told him that he is different from these lowly people, how can Emperor Tianhuang tell a little eunuch, I am the same as you below?
A cloud in the sky, a mud on the soles of the feet, if the lower body is the same, it will be laughed at and killed.
Zengshou didn't see his biological mother until he was ten years old.
The legendary mother, the old princess, was actually not old at all, she was not yet thirty years old at that time, and she had a beautiful face, looking much younger than her daughter-in-law, the princess, who was standing next to her.
Zeng Shou stood at the door, led by his grandmother and walked in timidly.
"Say hello to the princess." Mama took his hand, bowed her head and said, "Call my mother, this is my mother." ”
Zeng Shou looked at the noble and beautiful woman sitting there, and then looked up at Mama pursing her lips and saying nothing.
"What a ruined child."
The old princess was not happy in her heart, and snorted coldly.
Mama smiled and said, "This is the first time the sixth master has seen the princess, and there are some who are more timid." ”
The princess smiled: "The sixth brother looks really good, everyone said that you wanted to give birth to a girl, but now that I look at it, the sixth brother looks better than the girl." ”
"That is, this person's appearance is natural, they are all cultivated by accumulating virtue and doing good, if you want to grow well, you have to accumulate virtue and do good, if you don't cultivate this good blessing, you can't keep your heart, there is no way, alas."
Looking at the princess's ordinary-looking face, the old princess was extremely proud.
"Whether you can keep your heart or not depends on your personal ability, but unfortunately people's fate is destined, not their own is to do everything possible to get it, but it is just a dream of Nanke, the wind blows and disperses, in vain to increase the laughing stock, this glory and wealth should be enjoyed by whoever enjoys it is God's free arrangement, this is the result of accumulating virtue and doing good deeds." The princess didn't let it go, sarcastically saying that the old princess was pointed out to the old prince at a young age, but she was delayed for a lifetime, but she was widowed in the good days of her youth.
Zengshou stood there, holding Mama's hand tightly, there were only two women in his ears, and no one would give in to him. The old princess has no consciousness of being a mother at all, of course, if she has this consciousness, she will not listen to the master's words when the child is not born, and believes that the child in the womb has hindered the life of the old prince, and she has to be widowed when she is young, and after giving birth to the child, she will be thrown into the countryside and ignored Zhuangzi for so many years. Now, at the age of ten, Mama brought her children to see her, she didn't want to talk to her son at all, she just wanted to vent her anger - so many years of depression in her stepson's palace.
Zengshou's heart seemed to be pinched by a hand, and a sudden pain hit.
When he was seven years old, there was a little eunuch around him who said Shunzi, once he saw Shunzi taking a bath, and found that he was very similar to Shunzi's body, which made him feel scared, and he hid in the tent alone at night and cried, he was worried that he would also become a eunuch, and the people in Zhuangzi said that the eunuch was the most despicable, and he should not become a lowly person.
When he was ten years old, he understood that the legendary biological mother had no feelings for him, and the noble woman, Feng's eyes were disgusted: "At that time, the master calculated for me, saying that you and the old prince were destined to restrain each other, I still didn't believe it, I just wanted to give birth to you, but I didn't expect you to be a hard-headed person, and you killed the old prince before you were born." The princess sighed, reached out to caress her son's face, her hands were slender and soft, in order to protect the fragile nails, she wore nail covers inlaid with precious stones, and the cold nail covers were attached to the young face of longevity, and the child was so frightened that she didn't dare to move, so what was the sharp, cold and bright thing full of gems? She wouldn't want to cut my face with a knife.
"Meow." A white Persian cat jumped on the old princess's knee, the old princess's body shook, her nails on the child's face lightly, she didn't realize it at all, she immediately withdrew her hand, hugged the big white cat, and screamed in her mouth.
Blood beads oozed out of the scratch, and Zengshou reached out and touched it, and there was a small red blood mark on his fingertips.
The old princess hugged the cat, and had no time to take care of her son who was standing on the ground, so she squatted down and pressed it with her fingers, and a small bloody fingerprint was printed on the cold bluestone bricks, which was really fun, like a signature and a drawing! When the blood dried up, he touched the wound on his face again, stained with the blood that oozed out, and imprinted a blood mark on the green brick.
When Mama saw the scratched scar, she felt distressed: "Sixth master, does it hurt?" ”
The child shook his head: "It's fun, it's like signing a book." ”
Mama held him in her arms: "My sixth master, Mama will be gone in the future, what can you do?" ”
As a prophecy, one day I came back from the study to increase my life and found that I couldn't find my grandmother.
"The princess said that Mama was old and sent home to care for the elderly."
Junko stood behind him with her hands down.
He knew that the princess couldn't look down on herself!
Angry from the heart, Zengshou kicked Shunzi to the ground, and Shunzi hugged his leg tightly: "Master, if you want to be angry, come to Shunzi, don't go to the princess, we were finally picked up from Zhuangzi, no one can offend, my lord." ”
"Mama! Junko! ”
Zengshou muttered in his dream.
"Master, master, Shunzi is here, Shunzi is here."
A pair of cold hands held his hand, and Zengshou was startled and woke up.
