Chapter 14: Have I Lost My Heart?
Heaven is forgivable, but you can't live! Famous quote for the ages! Life is the most reasonable!
I sat bored in the box on the second floor, watching the heavily armed opera artists babbling there on the stage below, and sighed silently for the tenth time in my heart.
Be! I know that Peking Opera is the quintessence of the country, and we should enjoy it well, but one word is so old that when I hear the next word, I forget what the previous word is singing, and there are no subtitles, who knows what they are singing? I looked at the old and young men downstairs who kept applauding, did they really understand? Look at Shunzhi next to him, he actually looks like he is shaking his head, alas! ~ It can't be pre-aging, right? In the 21st century, it seems that only old people love to listen to this thing.
Alas! The eleventh sigh, and once again glanced at Shunzhi with "grievance", didn't he know that I was a blind theater gardener? You don't have to really come, do you? My eyelids were already fighting uncontrollably.
"Ahem!" I coughed lightly...... No one paid attention to me...... "Ahem!" "Coughed a little louder...... Still no one paid attention to me.
"Uh-huh!" I looked at Shunji and tried to get his attention.
"Say something." Shunji spoke lightly.
"That ......" I whispered into Shunzhi's ear, "the concubine wants to ...... Untie your hands. ”
Shunzhi glanced at me, and then turned his attention back to the stage: "Chang Xi, accompany the queen." ”
"Huh? No...... No, the concubine is her own...... Well...... Okay, hehe, Chang Xi will accompany me. "In Shunji's deep gaze, I had to change my words.
Chang Xi and I got out of the box and went downstairs, I didn't go in the direction of the thatched house in the backyard, but walked straight to the gate.
"Hey, master!" Chang Xi hurriedly stopped me, "Master, where are you going?" ”
I looked at Chang Xi and reached out to pat him on the shoulder: "Chang Xi, what do you say I do to you two brothers?" ”
"Ouch master," Chang Xi was a little anxious when he heard me ask: "The master didn't say anything to the slave and Laixi, but now the ninth master asked the slave to accompany the master down instead of Laixi to accompany him, doesn't the master understand?" No matter what, the slave doesn't dare to disobey the will of the ninth master. ”
"Okay, I know," I comforted Chang Xi, "I'm really stuffy upstairs, let's not go far, let's go up to the door and take a turn, okay?" ”
"This ...... Slave ......" Chang Xi looked very embarrassed.
I held up three fingers and swore: "I promise to go back after a turn, it won't be long." I looked at Chang Xi still looking hesitant, and then pretended to be a hanger, squinting and saying: "I don't agree to this little thing, I can't guarantee that I will ...... after I come to Xi."
"Hey, okay," Chang Xi looked frustrated, "but the master wants to promise the slave that he will go back immediately." ”
"Well, definitely, that's good." I walked out of the gate happily, but I really didn't dare to go far, after all, I couldn't burden others too much.
Fortunately, the gate of the opera garden is also very lively, set up a stall selling jade jewelry, in fact, as long as I don't let me listen to the play, I can do anything, I looked at one stall after another with great interest, and walked to a slightly larger stall, I was attracted by a jade pendant, the diameter of the jade pendant is about five or six centimeters, the whole is light cyan, the jade material is just general, but the peculiar thing is that there is a dazzling glow in the center of the jade pendant, the vendor is an uncle in his forties, he saw me staring firmly at the jade pendant, smiled and said: "The girl is really discerning, this piece is called 'eternal knot and one heart', the girl might as well pick it up and take a look." ”
Forever united? I reached out and picked up the jade pendant, who thought of this, I was even more surprised, the original jade pendant was actually made of two semicircular jade pendants, together, the glow of the edge of the two jade pendants can be assembled into a clear and complete circle, the combination is seamless, separated, the two jade pendants are integrated into one, the best thing is that this pair of jade pendants does not have a trace of artificial carving, it is natural, but I don't know whether it is a natural formation or the carving is too clever, this is a couple of pendants, no wonder it will be called this name.
The uncle at the stall saw that I seemed to like it very much, so he worked harder to sell: "This pair of 'eternal knots' has been around for a long time, and it is said that the couples who own this jade pendant can be more affectionate than Jin Jian until death." Qixi Festival is coming, why don't you buy it and give it to your sweetheart? ”
"Sweetheart?" I stared at the jade pendant in my hand, muttering in my mouth, and a pair of bottomless eyes unconsciously appeared in my mind, and after looking at it for a long time, it would sink. I smiled shallowly, and finally understood that it turned out ...... The one with a cold countenance...... It's my sweetheart......
I didn't bargain and bought the jade pendant from the boss, the gold and jade are priceless, even if it's just a dream, let me do this dream that can't come true alone.
Carefully put the jade pendant into his purse, turned around and walked for less than two steps, and saw Shunzhi slowly walking out of the gate of the opera garden, with a slender body, a handsome face, and an arrogant and noble temperament, all showing his freshness and handsomeness, and his extraordinary appearance.
Really, once I determined how I felt for him, I couldn't let go, I looked at him, grabbed the purse in my hand, and my face was slightly hot, do you want to give it to him?
"Is the clean room outside the theater?" Shunji looked at me playfully, and his clear voice was charming.
I surprisingly didn't talk back, and walked up to Shunzhi meekly, women in love are docile, uh...... All right! I am...... A woman in a crush.
Shunji looked at me in some surprise, I smiled nervously and grabbed my purse, "I ......"
As soon as I said one word, my attention was drawn to the conversation between two girls passing by:
"I heard that on the night of the Chinese Valentine's Day, the Guanyin Temple will set off fireworks to illuminate the Magpie Bridge for the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, and if you go to worship Guanyin Niangniang that day, it will be very effective."
"Oh! Someone wants to ask Guanyin Niangniang to give her a wishful husband! ”
"What nonsense are you talking about! See I don't hit you! ”
The two girls played and walked away, and I came back to my senses, Tanabata...... Valentine's Day...... It would have made more sense if it had been given to him on that day, right? Thinking about it, my face is already a little hot.
"What's wrong?" A long, cold hand touched my forehead, "So red?" There was a hint of worry in his voice.
"It's fine." I felt the temperature between his fingers and said in a thin voice.
"Master," Chang Xi stepped forward, sweating slightly: "The slave didn't do what the master told him." ”
"That's it." Shunzhi waved his hand, "I expected it, it would be strange if she was obedient." As he spoke, he looked at me with a smile and a hint of ...... in his bright eyes Pampering?
Chang Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Master, isn't it time to go to Master Suo?" ”
Shunzhi nodded slightly, Chang Xi retreated, after a while, I saw Chang Xi driving a simple decorated blue-topped carriage, stopped in front of us, I got into the car with Shunzhi, the place in the car was not too wide, I could only sit down next to Shunzhi, put his hands on his knees, and did not dare to move, Shunzhi looked at me funny: "Why do you look like a great enemy?" ”
"I ...... The concubine didn't ......" I replied in a whisper, being so close to him that I could even feel his body temperature through my clothes, which made me ...... Hey, a little blushing.
At this time, there was a bump in the car, thinking that the wheels were pressing on the stone and soil pit or something, I shook my body slightly, and stabilized my figure, but Shunzhi stretched out his arm, took me into his arms, and said softly: "Be careful." ”
My face is so hot that I can fry eggs, and my body is fluttering, it's useless! I despise myself in my heart, just hug it, can I use this dead virtue? But I ...... Oh, so happy!
I secretly raised my head to look at him, his face was so close to me, Shunji also looked down at me, his eyes became deeper and deeper, and slowly approached me, closer to me......
My heart was pounding, his breath was on my face, and I couldn't help but close my eyes in anticipation of what was to come...... He's going to kiss me, he's going to kiss me, hurry up and kiss! Kiss! Well? Why don't you kiss yet?
I opened my eyes in confusion and looked at me for a long time, his eyes full of narrowness, and the smile on his lips gradually expanded.
"What does the queen want to do?" A clear, cheerful voice rang in my ears, showing that he was happy.
I ...... "I'm going to die of shame!" Although he was a little reluctant, he still quickly pushed him away, "No, it's okay!" ”
I listened to Shunji's sullen laughter, and I couldn't wait to jump out of the car now, immediately, immediately! It's a big shame this time.
"Hmm...... The emperor is ...... Do you want to go to Lord Suo's house first? "I don't have the confidence to divert the subject.
Shunzhi smiled: "Yes, I have some things to discuss with Sony, and the queen will return to the palace first in a while, okay?" ”
"Hmm!" I nodded vigorously, and suddenly remembered, Shunzhi, was it an appointment with Sony? I was surprised: "It turns out that the emperor didn't sneak out to play?" ”
Shunji looked at me and said funny, "You think everyone is as unruly as you?" ”
I quickly lowered my head, and I said to him "fifty steps and a hundred steps" in a righteous and stern manner, and I smiled with a humble "hehe", please, don't mention this matter again!
After a while, Shunzhi suddenly said: "I will watch you that day, you don't want to sneak out again!" ”
"Huh?" I was confused by his mindless words, "Which day? ”
Looking at Shunzhi's expression of "don't pretend to be stupid for me", I thought about it carefully, what he said...... Is it Tanabata day? Did he hear the two girls too? He thought I was going to sneak out of the palace to see the fireworks and the bridge? Watch me? Does that mean he'll be with me that day? My heart was filled with joy, and my cheeks were slightly hot.
"Then ......," I glanced at him blushing and whispered, "Then you have to watch a little jailer, and don't let me slip out again." ”
Shunzhi laughed softly, and then the carriage stopped, and then Chang Xi said outside: "Master, it's time to Suofu." "Why is it so fast...... That's it?
Shunzhi glanced at me, turned around and got out of the car, I heard him say to Chang Xi: "You send the queen back first, and then come out to pick me up." ”
"Hui'er," Shunji called me out the window, and I quickly lifted the curtain and poked my head out.
Shunzhi looked at me gently and said, "I'll go back in a while, take the car to the Qianqing Palace first, change my clothes, and then go back to Kunning Palace." ”
"Hmm." I nodded obediently, and was about to retract my head, when Shunzhi stepped forward, picked up my chin with his fingers, and put his cold lips on my forehead, "Don't lift the curtain before going to the Qianqing Palace, you know?" ”
I blushed and obediently agreed, and then Shunji turned around and walked towards the gate of Suofu.
