Strange Return: Love at First Sight, Tide Over Difficulties Together (3)
(a)
I was on top of the main hall and watched her walk towards me step by step.
She probably didn't know how long I had been waiting for this moment.
Even if you are recovering from a serious illness, even if you hear the secret guard come back and tell me everything, even if you are full of questions and grievances, you can't miss the wedding.
Tonight's Jinling, the ceiling blooms in countless months, the colorful peach blossoms surround the cloud platform, and the second half turns over the flowers on the brocade, and the refining medicine burns out for ten thousand days.
When I saw that she was coming, I couldn't help but walk down slowly, and took her from the hands of the grandmothers and palace maids who were supporting her, I thought she would hesitate because of that person, but she didn't, not at all.
Then all the ministers bowed down together, and the chamberlain stepped forward to read the edict, which went something like this:
By the order of heaven and the transportation of the country, His Majesty said:
Shang's Shuli, also the lord of the county of Lingguo, has a supple temperament, pious feeding, the line of Sijia, Xiujia Qing envoy, the ministers and ministers, and the past generations. Hereby announce to the world, salty and smelly!
By the order of heaven and the transportation of the country, His Majesty said:
Today, the joy of the two countries, the edict of the matter, the merger of the Ye country, the return of the people, the heart of the heart, Jinling Zhongshan Longpan, the stone city of the tiger, is the place of the emperor, so the capital of the Ye country is in Jinlinger! Hereby announce to the world, salty and smelly!
"I wish Your Majesty a thousand generations, and I wish my mother the world!"
"I wish Your Majesty a thousand generations, and I wish my mother the world!"
"I wish Your Majesty a thousand generations, and I wish my mother the world!"
After the edict, the congratulatory voices of the ministers came and went, and they continued for a long time.
Then I joined hands with her to worship heaven and earth, respect the elders, and drink the wine of the husband and wife, and she had to step back first, and I would continue to entertain the guests.
But at this moment, no one understood my anxiety, and I couldn't wait to rush to her immediately and ask all the things about Ling Guo clearly.
Mogui Palace has long been explained to be clean and bright.
In the meantime, the flowers and candles are red, the clothes are fragrant, and then the hollow fence is separated, and the window screen is transparent, and it is fine and uninterrupted, no insects and no dust.
After the reception
I drank a little too much, rushed directly to the Mogui Palace and rudely slammed the palace door open, she was vigilant for a while, moved back slightly, I stumbled and approached to provoke the veil, staring at her deadly, speechless in my heart, and I didn't know how to speak.
She was very embarrassed by me, and only said in a daze, "Childe, what are you looking at?" ”
Of course, I ignored her, just fell on the bed, and said with a little wine, "In the past few days of separation, has my Li'er changed?" ”
"What can I do?" She asked with a strange look on her face.
I said, "The worrying change is, do you have one more person in mind?"
She asked in a daze, "You know everything?"
Actually, I really didn't want to scare her, but I really couldn't suppress the jealousy in my heart.
"yes, I know all about it, otherwise what do you think my secret guards are doing?" I staggered to my feet.
"You don't believe me?" She took a few steps back and asked me aggrieved.
"It's not that I don't believe you, but I don't believe him, it's impossible that you haven't had any feelings for these days together." I immediately said my understanding, my thoughts, my fears.
She only looked at me carefully from the side, and suddenly laughed heartily again, only came to my eyes, and said verbatim, "Childe, you, eat, jealous!" ”
"How can I!" I rolled over and refused to admit it.
She smiled and sighed lightly, and threatened, "Then why do I feel that this strange return palace is very sour!" ”
I just flipped back in discomfort and said to her, "Yes! I'm jealous, what's wrong? I didn't have any good ideas when I saw that white words! ”
"Childe, how do you know his name is Bai Yan?" She only asked at me puzzled.
"Because...... I've checked him and I've seen him. I looked at her with a calm and breezy attitude, as if nothing had happened.
So, the result? Why didn't you tell me?" She questioned.
"The first time he appeared, I ordered the secret guard to start checking his details, and after the investigation was seven or eight, it was shelved because of the big wedding, I didn't want to, but he took the opportunity to enter, it was really not a gentleman's doing, do you know that there is a ballad circulating in some places in Ling and Qi countries, that is, he is talking about."
No, it turned out that she didn't know anything, and after I told her, she seemed to figure out the ins and outs of these things.
"What ballad?" She asked me with interest.
I opened my mouth and said, "On the iceberg, cold and rugged, the jade-faced miracle doctor, the game world, the hanging pot to help the world, impermanence." ”
But she only shook her head and said, "How can this last sentence not make sense, impermanence?" No matter how Bai Yan is, how can he make black and white impermanent, and there is nothing to be done! ”
I said honestly, "This person is very comparable, and you should have experienced it in the few days you spent with him!" ”
"I admit that Bai Yan is indeed a skilled miracle doctor, there is no other person in the world, but my life can only be a son, not someone else's, it was, it is, and it will be even more in the future!" She sat on the edge of the bed and whispered helplessly.
"Do you know that the secret guard came back and told me that you went up the iceberg with him and stayed there for a few days, I really want to fly to Ling Country and go to your side to drive away all those 'idle people'."
I grabbed her wrist from behind and pulled it vigorously, and she fell on my shoulder and arm, why, Li'er, we have only been separated for half a month, but I feel as if it has been a long, long time, as if half a life has passed, from now on, I will never be separated from you again.
She looked at me and whispered to me, "I didn't stay on the iceberg for long, and later, Bai Yan and I went to a small village to save people there, and then I came back." ”
"Does Li'er miss me?" I whispered, but the image of the person in my mind lingered.
"I think about it on the iceberg, I think about it in the village, I think about it in the Kanzhelou, and I think even more when I am waiting to get married at my grandfather's place." Such a transparent gesture sounded very heartwarming to me.
"Li'er, do you know how worried and scared I have been in the past half a month, I have never been so worried, so scared." I hesitated, because I didn't know whether I should say this to her or not.
But she raised her hand and touched my cheek lightly with her fingertips, and said gently, "Why are you afraid, why are you worried, do you not believe me, or do you not believe in yourself!" ”
"I'm worried, scared that the person next to you is too good." I didn't expect to have such an inferiority complex in front of her.
"Childe, you have to remember that you are my only choice in this life, and the person next to me will only be you, and I and Bai Yan can only be said to be inseparable." She rubbed into my arms again and said softly.
I took her over half-lying and said affectionately, "Li'er, so is my heart." ”
"Now, should I change my name to your majesty?" She asked me in such a way that she was so incomprehensible.
"Nope! I prefer you to call me son, if you call your majesty, you will always feel that there are a lot of points, between you and me, there are not so many rules and regulations, I have never been Emperor Jin in front of you, and you don't have to change your wife. I had no choice but to respond to her seriously.
"Well, Childe, I will hold our memories, our past, and our eternal affection to continue to belong to you, my ...... Time. Her voice sounded trembling up and down.
Then, it is full of tenderness and happiness in the air so wordlessly diffuse, it can be said that the peach blossoms in the palace have come, unconsciously has been three watches, the red clothes are blown on the ground, the dragon and phoenix red candles shine double happiness, jujube sheng guizi blessing is in, around the childhood sweethearts.
(b)
On this day, I happened to finish approving the excerpts, and today the chamberlain told me that Li'er had moved to the Phoenix Palace, so I happened to go there.
But as soon as I entered the door, I saw that Li'er's hands were somehow wrapped like zongzi, and I thought something big had happened.
He asked in a loud voice in front of the door, "What's going on!" ”
For a while, the palace people were so frightened by me that they knelt on the ground, I didn't care about that at all, I just walked quickly to her side and squatted down and grabbed one of her hands and looked at it carefully, but she smiled and sighed, and said lightly, "I'm fine, they're just scary!" ”
"How so?" I looked at it distressedly, but I didn't dare to touch it, for fear that it would hurt her.
She bent down to help me to the seat, and motioned for the palace people to get up, and then turned around and secretly didn't know what she was doing, and suddenly she hung a rather delicate sachet in front of my eyes, and smiled smugly, "Na! For you! ”
I raised my hand and took it carefully, and a warm current flowed through my heart, "Are you doing this?"
She admitted, "Hmm! It's not for this, people say that I must make something for my husband, but I'm very clumsy, so I have to make a simple sachet for you, do you like it?"
She looked at me expectantly, I only held the sachet in my hand, took her into my arms, and said, "I like it, this is the favorite thing I have received in my life." ”
I have lost my mother since I was a child, and I have not had my father's love, and no one has ever made such a good thing for me, full of affection.
"But it's the first time I've done anything like this......" I just hugged her a little tighter and replied, "It's okay, I like it." ”
(c)
At noon on this day,
I'm discussing something important with the Dark Guard.
I was sitting in front of the desk, she walked towards me, first put the food box firmly on the table, and then took out the peach blossom cake in it, put it in front of me and said, "This is the peach blossom cake just made in the hall the day before yesterday, I think it's very good to eat, and the son also tastes it." ”
"What the secret guard explained to me just now is the matter of the Nancheng Patrol Envoy, so don't worry about it." I didn't care about this peach blossom cake now, I just stared at her like this.
"What happened to the Patrol of the Southern City? Don't you trust him?" She only said casually.
"The Nancheng Patrol Envoy is going to return to the Dynasty to inspect Chengbing's recent official affairs this evening, so I want to arrange a reception banquet for him, but this Nancheng Patrol Envoy is a person who advocates thrift and is not good at publicity, so he is worried about this matter." I just said with a look of helplessness.
She thought to herself for a while, and only said, "Childe, I have an idea that I don't know if it will work." ”
"Li'er, let's hear it." I looked at her and asked expectantly.
"I want to come here to the Feng Palace, with a clear stream, winding and flowing, until the depths of the stone stream, and here is connected to the Langyue Pavilion, where the strange stones are rugged and spread by the stream, the source of living water, you can prepare a banquet of meandering water there, or let the southern city patrol envoy bring his family into the palace, live alone for a day, plus one or two peach brews, one or two crisp points, isn't it good?" She only wandered around the desk and said a lot, and I hurriedly added after listening to it, "There are also music one or two, and poetry and ink one or two are even better!" ”
Night
Langyue Pavilion,
She didn't want to come, but she really couldn't resist my intentions, so she had to go with her.
From time to time, the Nancheng Patrol Envoy arrived, only led her to greet him, the Nancheng Patrol Envoy has always been honest and majestic, in fact, few people can see at a glance that he will be a civil official, one of them, a woman, face like a full moon, lips red, this is the wife of the Nancheng Patrol, Li'er and this woman exchanged a glance, all looked at it with a smile.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your kindness!" The southern city patrol only knelt down in front of me and thanked me.
"Why is this so, please get up quickly!" Seeing this, I lifted him up and said.
After a few simple greetings, everyone took their seats, "This is the ...... A feast of winding water?" The South City Patrol was incredulous for a moment.
"Exactly, thanks to my ingenuity." I only praised her general.
"On weekdays, I only listen to the fairy-looking lady of humanity, but I don't think about it, and today I see it when I see it, and my talent is not beyond the reach of ordinary people." After the Nancheng Patrol was surprised for a moment, Fang Jingyan said.
"Yes, I don't see my mother, I'm always complacent day by day, it's really boring to think about it now." His wife also spoke.
Li'er was already embarrassed, so she only waved her hand slightly and said, "Don't talk about it, this palace is going to be fluttering, in fact, this is all Your Majesty's meaning, this palace is just an idea." ”
"How can there be no poetry without such a Yaxing?" The Nancheng Patrol took a bite of the dish and only put chopsticks in it.
"I can't compose poetry, I can only pick up two sentences at random." The wife of the Nancheng Governor punished himself for drinking and said bluntly.
Li'er only comforted her, "It's okay, the poetry and books are not very popular, let's just play at will!" ”
After listening to my words, he had no choice but to stop refusing and squirming to accept.
The Nancheng Patrol Envoy had the highest affection for this, and first said, "The sky is clear and the wind is clear, and the soft flowers and trees are deep. ”
I rolled up my sleeves and took the first-class snail from the qushui, and then sang, "Shi Xun cup wine hold, that is the east wind is broken." ”
Li'er looked at me and thought only of one sentence, "The new swallow returns to the old nest, and the feathers do not fade." ”
I took another sip, and my eyes swept over the crowd, "Relatives and friends gather under the moon, and the stars are scattered." ”
Li'er Fulian said, "The peach blossoms fall in the wind, and the honey butterflies are only among them." ”
The Nancheng Patrol pointed to the water and laughed, "The morning glory is hidden in the stream, and the canal water is always ruthless." ”
His wife finally said slowly, "It comes up from it and starts between the incense sleeves." ”
I turned Shi Feng to myself, "If you ask Yun why is he innocent? Only envy the mandarin duck tears. ”
The Nancheng Patrol said, "In the past three months, the world has been sad and extinct in the world." ”
Li'er said again, and looked very touched, "Jun Huaimin is affectionate, and Pucao is left and right." ”
After a few rounds like this, it was naturally me as the leader, followed by the Nancheng Patrol, but I understood that Li'er's literary talent was not below me at all, and she deliberately fulfilled me.
I and the Nancheng Patrol are full of poetry at this time, and we only care about drinking and talking about the moon!
From the poems of etiquette and righteousness to the philosophy of Qufu, from the vicissitudes of personnel to political strategies, and then inexplicably talked about the official affairs of the monarchs and ministers, and what they saw on patrol along the way.
After the vernal equinox, it is Qingming.
After staying in the palace for the night, the envoy of the southern city and his wife left the palace early the next morning.
Qingming is really not a good day, causing people to feel sad and sad, full of melancholy, and helpless!
I came to the Laifeng Hall early, but I only learned that she went out of the palace to worship the Shang Gong, human nature, Qingming!
I sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, alone playing and admiring the moon, cups of birds and flowers.
Suddenly I felt someone gently blindfold my eyes with both hands from behind, I didn't say a word, but I knew that this cold and soft hand would only be Li'er's, so I put Yuxun on the stone table, and the melodious music was interrupted, and then I grabbed her up and pulled her over, "Why did you go for so long to worship Shang Gong today?"
She turned around and sat on my lap and watched me slowly speak, "Thank you." ”
"Thank me? Thank me for what?" I didn't know why she said it.
"Today, when I returned to the palace, I passed by the Shang Mansion, and I thought that it was already covered with a dense net, but I didn't want to, but it was still as clean and tidy as before." She seemed to have a hint of guilt in her words.
"So you mean it." I just said in one stroke.
That's what I'm supposed to do! I sent someone to reorganize the Shang Mansion, it was clean and comfortable!
"Tomorrow I want to go to the lonely house where my mother used to live and have a look again, do you want to go with me?" She asked me again.
"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow!" I thought about it for a moment, and still agreed, but in fact, I will receive foreign guests tomorrow, but for me, nothing is as important as you.
Following
I was entering the Feng Hall when I came down, and I happened to hear the laughter coming from inside
So as he walked, he asked, "What do you say?" So happy! ”
She only half-jumped and half-ran to Childe's side, took my hand and said, "No, Lai'er is talking!" ”
"But you're all set?" I muttered to her veneer.
She only replied obediently, "Well, I'm waiting for you." ”
The two of us glanced at each other, and walked hand in hand to the carriage that had been prepared outside the hall.
The new smoke is in the willows, the wanderer goes out of the city, the wind rises the pear blossoms, and the paper ash makes butterflies.
It's still the same courtyard, the same ruins, but the difference is the mood and feelings.
She stood in the study, looking at the woman in the unfinished painting, but she couldn't help but laugh dumbly, "This is what my mother looks like." ”
After watching here, she walked slowly to the hall, knelt in front of his spiritual seat, first kowtowed three times, and then solemnly gave him three pillars of incense.
"Mother, it turns out that you are my mother, you know? When I was young, I always wondered what kind of person my mother was, and whenever I saw other children with my mother, I would wonder if if my mother would love me like this if she was still there, and she would go shopping with me, play with me, and whisper to me in the boudoir," her voice trembled unconsciously, and after a pause, she confided in the spiritual seat, "You know what? How miserable is it for a child who has no mother since childhood, whenever I ask you in front of my father, my father's eyes are full of sadness, and I look at my father's appearance, although there are thousands of dead knots in my heart, I can't bear to ask again. ”
I have been depressed since I was a child, and today I finally told it sadly in my words, I understand, I also knelt down in front of the spiritual seat, and held her hand in distress, "Don't worry, Li'er will have me from now on, and she will definitely not be wronged again." ”
She only looked sideways at him and said this, and for a moment, she threw herself into his arms and cried into tears.
Holding the hand of the son, growing old with the son, life and death are broad, and the son is said.
(iv)
I hid under the peach blossom tree and watched their intimate appearance, and for a moment sour feelings welled up.
It's just that the arrows are full of bows, and the golden arrows are facing the direction of the white words......
After I couldn't help but shoot an arrow, I regretted it in my heart, what if I hurt Li'er?
turned around and walked quickly back to the Mogui Palace, and Li'er followed.
"Lord Chamberlain, please let me!" I was sulking inside, and the voice of Li'er, who was stopped outside, came in from time to time.
I didn't want to see her now, but the inner servant was embarrassed, and she shouted outside the palace, "Does it also include the main palace?"
I was afraid that after the case was vented, I shouted angrily to the outside world, "Let her in!" ”
She rushed in angrily and slapped the bow and arrow in her hand on the case in front of me, "Believe it or not, but what you just saw is not real!" ”
"What else could be true!" I was so angry that I got up from my seat and looked at her.
"Childe, don't fall for the trick, what you saw just now was what Bai Yan deliberately let you see!" She reminded truthfully.
Yes, that Bai Yan is afraid that he deliberately did it to show me that he was angry with me, after all, he couldn't get it!
Then I calmed down and said, "Yes." ”
She walked to the edge of her seat, took me by the hand, and said, "Just give me a moment to talk to him alone, okay?" ”
I was shocked to hear Li'er say this, "What?"
"I was poisoned by Gu, only he can solve it, he just told me about it, he also said that my Gu poison was in the middle twenty years ago, he must know the inside story, and I also want to know what is going on! You have to trust me! She just looked at me, and for good reason.
I took two steps back, and after a short period of deep thought, I said, "Okay, I promise you, and of course I believe you, but if he dares to touch you, I will kill him!" ”
She breathed a long sigh of relief, her body finally relaxed, and she only said softly to me, "Childe, don't worry, he won't!"
