The flowers are similar every year, but the people are different every year. Su Die had seen this sentence in many hypocritical jokes in her previous life, and she never thought that one day, not only would this person be different, but the flowers would no longer be similar every year.

It had been more than two days since I returned from the pavilion that day. In the past two days, she has lived a very peaceful life. To be able to have such leisure, I have to thank Yan Che for the word of advice, she can't get out of this door, and others will no longer make a boring trip to this Beiyuan. She lived the days in the cold palace again, but there was no Ah Xiang here, no osmanthus flowers in the courtyard, and no pot of spicy and fragrant wine.

Because she was grounded by the emperor in front of the public, she was even more pathetic and pitiful in the eyes of the people in Beiyuan. Everyone was even more determined in their hearts, and they were sure that she would end up alone in this courtyard for the rest of her life, and there would be no more fetters and cover-ups in everything, and the guards' clothes would be placed directly in front of her, and they would no longer wait for her to enter the house.

It was night, and Su Die still washed a whole pot of clothes on the branches of the moon, and the efficiency still did not improve. She dragged her sore body slowly to her room, and was about to gently push the door in, when the voice of the woman inside came: "Alas, she hasn't come back yet?" ”

"No, it's all the guards' clothes, they're so many and dirty, they're all washed in a while. It was full of three large pots, and all of them were given to her today. This is used to being a young lady, and suddenly doing this work of serving people, how can she adapt to it all of a sudden. ”

"Not really. I heard that she didn't want to anger His Majesty in order to fight for herself again that day. His Majesty spilled the whole cup of tea on her body, and strode away with Concubine Dong in her arms. Originally, she just felt pitiful, but now it seems that she is pathetic. has fallen so far, and he has not given up, still thinking about the days of fine clothes and food. The woman chuckled softly, and the other woman laughed in unison. If she hadn't heard the previous chat, Su Die would have never imagined that what made them happy was her current situation. I didn't expect that the events in the pavilion that day had been spread in the palace into such a version.

The last person to speak was the woman who slept next to her, and she was polite when she saw her on weekdays, and sure enough, people can't use what they see to make a conclusion. Su Die's heart was cold, and at the same time, she felt sorry for them, she should have been happy with her parents' knees, carefree age. In this bottomless palace, under the world dominated by royal power, they become numb day by day, forgetting who they are, and they don't want to think about it anymore.

Before Su Die entered the house, she stepped down the steps gently, step by step, weak and heavy. She can't change them, she can only remind herself from time to time that no matter when and where she is, don't forget your original intention, and be safe.

The next day, Su Die still got up at six o'clock. Because she came back late last night and didn't sleep well, she was sitting in the courtyard at the moment, dizzy, and she had a feeling that she didn't know what year it was.

Everyone was busy, and the group slowly entered the door. When the leading grandmother in Beiyuan saw that it was Gonggong Liu in front of His Majesty, she was frightened, and quickly got up from the chair in the courtyard, beckoned to the palace maids around her, and everyone knelt on the ground. It has been a long time since anyone from Beiyuan has come to announce the will in person, and everyone is nervous, with a trace of expectation.

Gonggong Liu shook off the dust, cleared his throat, and preached loudly: "The sinner girl Su Die, because she angered the holy face, was grounded in Beiyuan. Heavenly grace is mighty, and Your Majesty is merciful. Now, because his brother returned to the dynasty and had a meritorious role in quelling the rebellion, he was allowed to leave the palace for two days to repay his brother's wish to reunite. ”

Gonggong Liu's voice was sharp and long, and the tail note echoed in this small courtyard for a long time. The crowd fell to the ground and was silent.

Su Die did not hesitate, kowtowed, received the order, and thanked him. There was no color on the face, as usual.

The way back to the house is not much different from the way into the palace, just a carriage, which is a little simpler.

Su Die didn't care, although she hadn't seen the former lord's brother, she also knew that his move must have begged the emperor for her. In this world, she is satisfied to have someone who misses her.

When she came, she raised her hand and saw that her eyes were full of antique, but the gate of this palace was secluded, and she didn't know when she would be gone. When she went, she no longer had the state of mind in her heart, and what she was looking forward to was to be able to say goodbye to this palace, this city, and goodbye from now on...... That person.

The carriage stopped smoothly, Su Die lifted the curtain, saw the word Su Fu, and sighed for a while. When she first crossed over, she didn't pay attention to it, but when she looked carefully today, this mansion gate was also magnificent, with stone lions standing next to each other, and her spirit was vivid.

The housekeeper was already waiting at the door, and when he saw Su Die getting out of the car, he hurriedly stepped forward: "Miss is finally here, come in with me, Mrs. and Son-in-law have been waiting for a long time." ”

Su Die followed the housekeeper into the door, and after a short time, he came to the courtyard of the eldest lady. The eldest lady likes bamboo, and there are a lot of bamboos planted in the courtyard, which are green and leisurely, and there is quite a bit of artistic conception. It's just that today, Su Die has no intention of appreciating bamboo.

Entering the door, Su Die raised his eyes and saw a personable young man standing in front of the hall, he was dressed in a silver robe, standing upright, showing perseverance in leisure, and arrogance in plainness. His eyes were deep, and his eyebrows were stained with some wind and dust. Su Die concluded that this was the former master's brother-Su Yi.

Xu is body's instinctive reaction, Xu is Su Die saw the pity and pampering in his eyes, she didn't care about anything else, pounced forward, and threw his broad arms.

Su Die felt a sense of security that she had never felt before, and this feeling made her feel at ease and made her nostalgic. For a moment, she couldn't help it, and her tears fell.

Su Yi looked at the emaciated figure in his arms, his heart ached, he patted her back gently, and said in a voice: "Die'er is not afraid, my brother is back." In the future, I will not let anyone touch you again. ”

The eldest lady was beside her, looking at a pair of children, her eyes were also hazy with tears, and she hid her face and cried. The atmosphere in the room was low for a while, and only the shallow sobs of Su Die and the eldest lady remained.

After a long time, Su Yi laughed and said: "My good butterfly, you know my brother's cleanliness habit the most, if you cry for a while, my mother will make this new dress for me, I'm afraid it will be scrapped." After that, he rubbed Su Die's head, and his doting feelings were overflowing.

Su Die came back to her senses, she forgot herself for a while, and cried happily in his arms, releasing all the pain that had accumulated in her heart for a long time. But after all, it was not her own brother, she was a little embarrassed for a while, and got up from his arms with a red face.

Su Yi looked at Su Die's red face, smiled again, raised his hand to scrape the tip of her nose, and chuckled: "Mother said that you have changed a lot, in my opinion, you are still the same as before, you love to cry and hide behind me." Didn't look like a big girl. ”

The eldest lady listened to Su Yi say this, looked at Su Die's face, and if she didn't cry red, she replied shyly, it was still the well-behaved butterfly she used to be. She was relieved, and a smile spread around her lips.

Su Die felt this familiar and unfamiliar atmosphere, and her heart was full of mixed feelings, she only wished that time would stop and let her stop in this harbor and not move forward.
