Then, Wei Qilang also got up and walked out, following the emperor's drive away.

At this point, there was a room of ministers left in the main hall, all looking at each other, and a good wedding banquet was stirred up like this, and after staying for a while, people also felt bored, and they all sighed and dispersed with each other.

******

Jiang Xueyao's body is not weak, although she is not in good spirits after being hungry for a few days, but people are not looking for death and life, but they are even more depressed, and they don't go out every day in their county lord's mansion, and there are only two people in the county lord's mansion of Nuoda, she and the nurse.

Tonight, Yang Huaicheng is full of joy, because the queen gave birth to the prince and established the East Palace, the emperor is ordered to set off fireworks and enjoy with the people, therefore, Yang Huaicheng is particularly lively, fireworks are being set off everywhere to celebrate.

Jiang Xueyao sat in the courtyard with her clothes on, but she looked up at the sky and was distracted, the fireworks in the distance rose into the sky in a colorful way, and the sky reflected was gorgeous, and her pair of dead pupils were even more unfocused, and her small body sitting on the stone bench was also thin, like paper as if it could be blown away by the wind at any time.

Her face was pale, like a purple and red night sky, and those fleeting brilliance were like shooting stars, and like the emotions she had persisted for sixteen years, they drifted away with the wind with the fall of fireworks.

But why, her heart is so unwilling, how can she not be sad when her more than ten years of emotions are cut off like this.

******

Dong Ru sat bored in the room, holding his chin in his hand and looking up at the brilliant fireworks outside, and listening to the laughter in his ears, but he was not interested at all.

She hadn't seen fireworks before, so she was happy, but when the people around her were not there, her heart was empty, and she was not interested in watching those fireworks.

Zishu on the side and her relationship have gradually become closer, and now she is playing with Qi'er, listening to their laughter, she somehow, she just can't be happy, maybe it's such a beautiful day, Qilang is not around, she is alone, she feels lonely.

"Madam, otherwise, let's go out for a walk, and go to the palace gate to greet your lordship, he will definitely be happy to see you." Seeing that she was listless, Zi Shu came up with an idea and wanted her to be happy, so he picked up the child and came over to her and said.

Dong Ru turned his head to look at her, a pair of clear eyes on her porcelain white face were lonely, she took the child from her arms and kissed her, and said softly: "If you don't go, just wait for him at home, there's no interest when you go out, you can do your own thing, you don't have to accompany me." ”

Zi Shu listened, and saw that she turned her head to look at the child, and the lonely look in her eyes was more radiant because of the child, and she couldn't help sighing, and wanted to say that some adults were actually running around for their business, and they didn't hesitate to bear the infamy in order to protect her, but looking at her sitting there was weak and delicate, like a small flower, and the words couldn't be said when they came to their mouths.

I had to persuade: "Don't blame the adults, you were so busy when you didn't come, and it was common to not see people for a few days, so don't forget to go in your heart." ”

"Was he so busy before, and he was very busy for the New Year?" Dong Ru turned his head when he heard this and asked in surprise.

"Yes, the lord is a celebrity in front of the emperor, and the main power of the seven provinces is on the lord, and there are many things that need him every day, so he is very busy." Zi Shu said very casually, she was used to Wei Qilang's time rules, so she didn't think it was anything, but when Dong Ru heard it, she lowered her head, a little lost.

The two of them were talking, and Xiao Yong's voice came from outside, and he said to Dong Ru: "Madam, my lord can't go back to the house for a while, so I ordered my subordinates to come and talk to Mrs., saying that if you feel bored, go out of the house and go shopping. ”

"Look, what the slave said, even if the adults can't come back, they still think about you, no, even this is thought out for you, don't be bored, listen to the adults, go out for a walk." When Zi Shu heard Xiao Yong's words, he smiled, and he seemed to be happier than Dong Ru.

Dong Ru listened to it with shame, and the expression of Qilang when he said this came to his mind, it must be gentle, sweet in his heart, and he couldn't help but have two small dimples on both sides of his face, and hurriedly turned his head, but the side face was pink and tender, and his eyelashes trembled like wings for a long time, and he said in a small and delicate voice: "He said it all, then let's go out for a walk." In the end, his voice was quieter, and only a smile remained.

Zi Shu looked at her little face flushed, even the ears were pink and transparent, although she was sitting on the stool with her head tilted, she was smiling, a few strands of hair hung down softly and sticking to her white neck, the little person looked as bright and translucent as a budding flower, and her heart couldn't help but be soft.

She sighed very much, such a woman even she wanted to protect, no wonder the adults fell in love with it. At that moment, he nodded, went out to find Mama Wang, asked her to take care of the little son, and accompanied his wife out of the house.

The street was indeed full of people, and the children ran by in twos and threes, Dong Ru looked at the boredom and swept away, and finally had some smiles on her face, they did not take the carriage, but Xiao Yong followed behind, and Zishu accompanied her all the way out of the house.

All kinds of fireworks were lit by people and put into the sky, bursting into big flowers, gorgeous, illuminating the whole sky colorfully, and people also gathered together to cheer loudly, shouting long live the emperor, long live the crown prince, laughter, a prosperity.

Dong Ru didn't understand when she heard it, but it happened that three or two children ran past them at this time, chasing and playing, but their mouths were like those adults singing nursery rhymes.

The imperial city is rich, and the Wei family is strong.

Empress Wei, Tianzi Yue.

Born the crown prince, the east palace stands.

The nursery rhymes of this and so on were sung all the way, and Dong Ru was even more puzzled when he heard it, and turned his head and asked Zishu: "What are they singing?" ”

"Today's fireworks festival is to celebrate the birth of the prince of the queen, and established as the prince of the East Palace, the emperor is happy, is to make us the people and the royal family happy, and this Wei family is talking about our Wei Mansion, because the queen is from the Wei Mansion, people feel that the Wei Mansion has a face in front of the emperor and is glorified for a hundred generations, so there is this nursery rhyme, which is made up by people, you don't have to pay attention to it."

Zishu explained to her, but Dong Ru looked at the look on her face with great pride, as if talking about Wei Fu and Wei Qilang, as if she had won this glory herself, her face was full of glory.

It turns out that the queen is from the Wei Mansion, this is really a supreme honor, Dong Ru admired it in her heart, but she heard Zi Shu and said to her with great interest: "Our lord is ranked seventh in the mansion, this queen is his half-sister, the third daughter of the former master, and has been cultivated as a queen since she was a child, so she can marry into the royal family, which can be regarded as the foresight of the former lord, and he plans for the future of the mansion." ”

These Dong Ru don't understand, but they can understand it.

No one will last long, and power is even more so, so the former master will do this, sacrificing a daughter and preserving the entire family, this is the most advantageous way, just like Wei Qilang's marriage contract, it is all for the shackles of power.

She suddenly felt a little inexplicably sad, her chest was uncomfortable, and she felt sorry for him when she thought that Shichiro had sacrificed a lot of things for such a false name, and she lost interest in looking at the beautiful fireworks that exploded in the sky.

She silently followed Zi Shu on the road, looking around, her face shining in the light of the firelight, as crystal as a pearl, and her two jet-black pupils reflected those colorful fireworks but they were quiet and clear, not happy at all.

As he was walking, a soldier came in front of him, bowed to Dong Ruyi, and said, "Mrs. Wei, Lord Shoufu is invited." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and made a way, Dong Ru was stunned, followed his guidance and looked over, only to find that it was on the city tower, too high, I couldn't see Su Liuyu, I only saw the red lantern swaying in the wind above the city tower, but he saw her, so many people on the street, I don't know how he saw it.

Xiao Yong, who was behind him, heard that it was the first assistant of the cabinet, and immediately stepped forward to protect Dong Ru's side, his expression was also indifferent, it seemed that he was very repulsive to Su Liuyu.

"Is there anything wrong with Shousuke-sama?" Dong Ru asked symbolically and politely.

She didn't want to go over, since she knew that Su Liuyu, who escorted her all the way to Beijing, was the first person today, she didn't want to have any intersection with him anymore, not to mention, she was married, and she agreed to the invitation of a strange man.

But the soldier said, "Mrs. Hui, my lord said that it won't take up too much of your time, you don't have to refuse, he is waiting for you above the tower, so he will only say a few words to you." ”

Hearing him say this, Dong Ru immediately looked embarrassed, presumably this is Su Liuyu's original words, he guessed all her psychological activities, and expected that she would refuse, so he used such words to block her back road, even if Dong Ru didn't want to go at this moment, it wouldn't be possible, and not going would become her stinginess.

At that moment, he nodded, explained to Zi Shu behind him, and cast an expression of "I'm fine" to Xiao Yong, that is, he wanted the soldier to lead the way.

Zishu also wanted to follow, but the soldier came and said, "My lord only said to let Madame go alone, please stay." He followed Dong Ru and led her up to the city tower.

Along the way to the city tower, looking around, this place is empty and quiet, ten steps and one post, five steps and one soldier, and the joy of the earth below is completely two worlds, and Su Liuyu is standing in the open place of the city tower, looking at the joy on the faces of the people below, with a faint expression.

There was no one else behind him, only the soldiers standing guard indifferently, the cold wind blew, blowing his clothes up, it seemed that others were out of touch with the world, and his white face was lonely and lonely in the fireworks in the sky.
