Chapter Twenty-Four: The Secret of the Deep Palace
Inside the Palace of the Stars. (Xingyao Palace is the palace where Fenghua lived before the queen was abolished.) In the palace, amber wine, jasper, golden foot bottle, jade plate, food is picturesque, wine is like a spring, the guqin is trickling, and the bell is dingdong. The main hall is decorated with inverted bell-like flowers, the calyxes are white, the bone china is translucent, and the top of the petals is a circle of different shades of lilac, which seems to be dyed naturally. )
Concubine Yan leaned on the couch, covered with a fine silk futon, her pale face was not powdered, and she coughed lightly twice from time to time, as if she was afraid that others would hear it, so she deliberately lowered it and covered her mouth with a white handkerchief.
If you look closely, the white handkerchief is not a thing in the palace, the palace is used to luxury, and the concubines are also delicate, and they will never use such coarse cloth embroidered handkerchiefs.
I saw two lines of words embroidered on the handkerchief, one line is: Eternal heart and king! It's probably because the embroidery time has been a little longer, some of the threads are open, and the embroidery is not particularly good, but you can still see it.
The other line is embroidered: I don't know if I am lovesick to the bone! This sentence is newly embroidered, and the embroidery is very good, and it is actually red.
Concubine Yan held a handkerchief, her eyes were empty, and she chanted softly: "Linglong dice An red bean, do you know if you are lovesick!" β
After that, he coughed twice and continued: "I don't know if after I leave, An'er she... How are you doing! Probably not good! As he spoke, he hammered his leg angrily and blamed himself for his incompetence!
Xiao Wu, who heard the movement and heard the sound, was frightened when he saw the handkerchief. Hurriedly snatched the veil and said fearfully: "You don't want to live anymore!" Why do you still keep this veil! β
"You give it back to me, it's... It was embroidered by An'er herself, and it was my only thought! β
"That Miss Wang's family is poor, and the master will never let you get married!"
"Xiao Wu, you don't know what love is, it has nothing to do with Fengyue, it has nothing to do with affection, you can know eternity at a glance!"
"Yes, yes, I don't understand, I only know that you are Concubine Yan now, and you are the most favored Concubine Yan in this deep palace now, and you must not think about the love of children anymore."
"Whoever loves this Yan Concubine wants it. I'm not rare, I just want to be a couple with An'er for the rest of my life. β
"Oh, my father, don't talk this nonsense. You don't want to live, I still want to! β
"I'm telling the truth, I agreed with An'er to meet in front of the stone bridge that day, but who knew that before An'er, I actually waited for the name of Concubine Yan! Hehe, creation makes people, creation makes people! β
"You don't look down on the name of this Concubine Yan, you don't look down on this grace, but do you know how many people fight for these two things, and there are no bones."
"What's there to fight for, people~" Concubine Yan smiled helplessly and sighed!
"Look at this pavilion and pavilion, look at this Guidian Lan Palace, how many people dream of it." Xiao Wu said excitedly.
"Look, this is the silk that the emperor rewarded yesterday, and it is said that there are only two horses in the palace in a year!" Xiao Wu stroked the silk piled up at the head of the bed, his eyes full of yearning.
"Look at this jade Ruyi, it feels warm to the touch, it is a rare and good product, this is what those individuals sent us yesterday!"
"Look at this fruit, it's rare to see outside the palace, and it's even harder to find, but now it's for you to eat, you're still not satisfied! ......β
"If you don't want to give me the name of Concubine Yan! Why are you occupying? β
"Xiao Wu, you..."
"Huh. From childhood to adulthood, you have always been like this, always like this!! After that, Xiao Wu actually squatted on the ground and cried with his hands covering his face!
Concubine Yan hurriedly sat up from the bed and went down to the ground to comfort Xiao Wu, who was crying bitterly.
Concubine Yan's hand just wanted to fall on Xiao Wu's shoulder, but Xiao Wu pushed it away violently and said, "You go, you go!" I don't need your pity! β
"I... I'm not pitiful for you..."
"What is that, it turns out that in your eyes, I don't even have the capital to make you pitiful!"
"Xiao Wu... No... Not what you think! β
"What is that, for so many years, in the eyes of your family, I am just a domestic dog!"
"How so! You're my brother, and they've always regarded you as their own! β
"That's just the shackles that have been put around me to keep me faithful! What bullshit brother, you're a goose, what about me! Hehe, it's just a crow, a crow that everyone looks down on! β
Xiao Wu took a breath and said: "When I was a child, in the school, you always understood the books that Mr. taught, and Mr. often praised you as his protΓ©gΓ©, what about me?" I studied hard night and night, but in exchange for only one sentence: This son should not embark on a career path! β
"Xiao Wu..."
Concubine Yan just wanted to open her mouth to explain something. Xiao Wu interrupted: "You look good at beating Xiaosheng, what about me!" I'm just trying to cover up my face under my makeup! β
Xiao Wu paused for a moment and said: "Even the emperor, the emperor has taken a fancy to you at a glance, Concubine Yan, Concubine Yan, but you still don't know how to cherish it!" What about me? What about me! β
"I don't want to do that either, I'm sorry... I... I didn't know I had hurt you so much! β
"Do you regret it? It's too late to regret it, I can't go back, I can't go back! β
"Xiao Wu, this palace is unfathomable, otherwise I will drag my father to take you out of the palace, find a good family to marry, and I will be safe and happy for a lifetime!" Concubine Yan originally wanted to compensate Xiao Wu. But he ignored one point, people's hearts are different.
"I don't, I don't want to leave the palace, I finally begged the master to follow you into the palace, why do you want to go out."
"It's you, now that you've entered the palace, competing for favor is the king's way, don't look sick all day long, annoying people, you have to be favored, I can follow the light!"
"Alas~"
"Don't sigh all day long, the emperor has been diligent these days, and the veil will be burned. lest the emperor see it and cause trouble in vain! β
"No, you can't burn it, An'er sent it!"
"Give it to me!" Xiao Wu tugged hard, pulled the veil over, and turned to leave.
Only Concubine Yan was left lying on the cold ground, unable to stand up for a long time, a hot tear hit the floor, Concubine Yan whispered: "An'er, don't be!" β
After crying, Yan struggled to get up, wiped his tears with his sleeve, moved to the desk tremblingly, spread a piece of paper, dipped his pen in ink, and wrote: An'er, seeing words is like me......
After writing, he surprisingly did not pack the seal, but picked up a candle and evenly applied the melted wax oil to the letterhead, and then sealed it. He didn't notice that a small dark shadow was hidden behind the pillar outside the door......
