Chapter 198: Grandpa, I'll Ask You a Secret
I was busy all morning, and when I entered the palace in the afternoon, everyone was almost there. Those official ladies are enjoying the flowers in the imperial garden.
Qin Fengwu didn't have much heart to look at these flowers and plants, and gently held back a glance at the warbler in the flowers, and Yanyan was about to leave to go to the East Palace to see Jimo Nuoyu. Instead of being polite to them here, it is better to accompany Jimo Nuoyu and tease the little emperor and grandson.
But before she could step out of the garden, she was stopped by a voice behind her.
"Miss Qin, please stay."
Qin Fengwu was stunned, she recognized this voice, it was flowery. What she told herself to do. As he thought, he turned around.
I thought I would meet her eyes with some resentment, but I didn't expect to see her smile like a spring breeze. Smile slightly, the country is captivated. The smile is very pure, the eyes are clean and not stained with a trace of dust, and the flowers at this time are just like the appearance at that time when I saw them for the first time. It's beautiful and pure.
Hua Yuxi slowly walked towards Qin Fengwu step by step and saluted her slightly. Qin Fengwu hurriedly returned the salute. In terms of position, he is inferior to her. Hua Yuxi has the title of the county lord of Xiling. And he is nothing.
"Miss Flower." She replied faintly.
"Can we walk together? I want to talk to you. ”
Qin Fengwu wanted to refuse, but she couldn't bear to refuse with such a flowery language, so she nodded and agreed.
The two of them left the nobles and walked to a more remote place in the Imperial Garden. However, Qin Fengwu was not worried at all about what she would do to her, and subconsciously felt that today's flower language had changed.
Coming to the lotus pond, the weather in June is a good time for lotus flowers to bloom, and the lotus pond is full of large lotus flowers, which is very beautiful. The floating lotus leaves were still dripping with crystal droplets. It's very pleasing to the eye.
"Miss Qin, can I call you a phoenix dance like my cousin?" Hua Yuxi stopped, stood by the pool, and asked cautiously.
Qin Fengwu was slightly stunned, met her eyes, and saw the expectation in her eyes. I don't know why, I always feel that it must be a good thing for her to find herself today. A shallow smile: "Yes, Yuxi." ”
She called out frankly, and the smile on her face was even worse, and there was even a hint of relaxation and relief. Gently patted his chest, closed his eyes slightly and said, "Thank you." I think I figured it out. ”
"Figured out what?" When she said this, Qin Fengwu had probably guessed what she was going to say, but she just wanted to hear her say it with her own ears.
"Poof" Hua Yuxi didn't hold back for a while, so she laughed out loud and looked at Qin Fengwu with disgust: "Fengwu, you know what I'm going to say, you are deliberately trying to ridicule me." He pouted and deliberately glared at her fiercely.
Qin Fengwu pursed her lips, her eyes were looking around, and she looked like it was none of my business. After a while, he was stunned: "Have you figured it out?" What about you, or Shaoqing? ”
Without waiting for Qin Fengwu to finish asking, Hua Yuxi nodded, and at the same time restrained his smile and said, "Yes, I figured it out." You're right, you have to use all means to get love if you can't do it. It will only bring misfortune to yourself. I don't think I'll be obsessed anymore. ”
Qin Fengwu looked at Hua Yuxi with great relief, she knew that she was not bad, but she had gone astray because of love. Someday I'll figure it out, and if I figure it out, just like now.
"I can't say I don't love my cousin now, but I'm learning to give up." Hua Yuxi said again.
Qin Fengwu was surprised for a while, she thought that Hua Yuxi would not implicate her anger, and she could think that she would not harm others, but she didn't think that she would give up.
Looking at Qin Fengwu with a stunned face, Hua Yuxi lowered her eyebrows and smiled lightly, her eyes seemed to make her thoughts drift away, and she said in a babbling voice: "I have liked my cousin since I was a child, it can be said that I am from the age of six to the age of seventeen now. Loved for eleven years. However, for the past eleven years, he has not waited for his response. I was full of joy and thought that when I waited for me, I would marry him, but when he came, he fell in love with you. At that time, I was unwilling and hated. That time my uncle-in-law came to ask for the Jiaolong Divine Whip, I secretly wrote to him, just to want him to teach you a good lesson, but I didn't expect my uncle-in-law to not dislike you, but he liked you because of it. That time, the hatred and the sense of crisis made me lose my mind, so I chose An Wanting to cooperate. Unite her to harm you. It's just that you're smart and not fooled. And I want to thank you for not exposing the ugly things I did in front of my cousin. I'm grateful for preserving my reputation.
It's just that you know that when you came to my cousin, I hadn't woken up yet, and I even thought you were a watery poplar woman. Knowing what you told me, I figured it out. This time, thank you the same.
And I will give up because I am not young, seventeen, and the next year will be eighteen. There are girls at my age who are already mothers of children. I know that I don't have to worry about getting married with my appearance, but it is difficult to guarantee that someone will always come to the door to propose marriage in the future, so I want to take the opportunity to have the capital of beauty, forget that it is impossible to marry my cousin in this life, and find happiness that belongs to me. ”
Hua Yuxi said for a long time, and Qin Fengwu also listened carefully. Her mood seemed to open up all of a sudden, and she hoped that it could be as she wished.
"That's very good." Qin Fengwu can only respond with these four words.
Hua Yuxi is already very satisfied. She stared at this Qin Fengwu's delicate face, and finally understood why they liked her at this moment. There is confidence between the eyebrows, and only a little stop there seems to be extravagant. The smile on the corner of his mouth is very pure. Just that confident look is fascinating.
"Now, I don't know if I can be your friend."
"Of course." Qin Fengwu responded happily. That's the best, and who wants to have one more enemy of their own.
When I returned to the Imperial Garden, there was not much time left before the banquet began, and I hadn't had time to see Jimo Nuoyu or Feng Qiyun, so I hurriedly said goodbye to the flowers, and hurried to the East Palace.
Hua Yuxi looked at her distant back, in the sun, like a flame, blazing and dazzling. Don't be surprised, she is such a person who is as warm and fascinating as fire.
When he came to the East Palace, it happened that Feng Qiyun was teasing the little emperor and grandson in the East Palace, and he deliberately ran to the Yunlai Palace again.
Cheerfully spoke: "Grandma." ”
When Feng Qiyun heard the voice, she pretended to be unhappy, and said without looking over, "You are up there, your mother came over early, why did you come, did you forget me." ”
Qin Fengwu was stunned and didn't hold back, laughed, ran behind Feng Qiyun to pinch her shoulders, and began to be coquettish: "Grandma, don't be angry, I just met Miss Hua and chatted casually." You see that you and Grandpa Hua are brothers and sisters, so I can't communicate more with her granddaughter. ”
Feng Qiyun looked at her with a look on her face, and she was really said by her.
"Wu'er, it's really filial, as soon as you come, pinch your grandmother's shoulder." It happened that the emperor came over.
As soon as Qin Fengwu saw the Emperor Taishang, he especially wanted to ask him about the secret passage. Holding back his mouth for a while, he didn't hold back after all, and said to the Emperor: "Grandpa, Wu'er, there is something I want to ask you, can you tell me?" ”
"What's the matter, God is mysterious. Just ask. The Emperor Taishang thought that there was nothing important, and said very easily.
Qin Fengwu glanced around, everyone was here, estimating that this kind of thing was a royal cipher, so if he asked like this, it was estimated that he would not reply, and he would definitely say that there was no such thing, so he said: "Grandpa, this is a secret, I will ask you quietly." ”
"Ouch, when did the dance become so mysterious." Feng Qiyun said jokingly.
However, the Emperor Taishang saw unprecedented seriousness in her eyes, thinking that what she was going to ask was definitely not trivial, so he nodded: "Okay, come with me." ”
Under the unexplained gaze of everyone, Qin Fengwu followed the Emperor Taishang out of the East Palace. Returning to the Yunlai Palace, the Emperor Taishang retreated from everyone very interestingly.
After making sure that no one was present, Qin Fengwu asked: "Grandpa, are there any escape exits in the palace?" She didn't dare to ask blatantly, after all, this was a royal secret.
The Emperor Taishang was stunned for a moment, but he obviously felt that she must have something to do, so he asked, and replied without thinking deeply: "Yes, just in the cold palace, there is a secret passage leading to Donglin Street, the courtyard of the former Lin Guo Mansion. It is used as a time of great calamity, to flee. Wu'er, are you in trouble? ”
Qin Fengwu didn't want to hide it from the emperor, so he nodded lightly: "Yes, maybe after this matter is solved, the emperor will be willing to give me the title." ”
"Oh, yes? That's really great, what else do you want to know, grandpa will tell you. ”
Qin Fengwu was so grateful that she almost didn't shed tears, she didn't expect that she was just saying something vaguely and casually, and the Emperor Taishang trusted him so much.
"Grandpa, you're so nice." As he spoke, he pounced on him and gave the Emperor a big hug.
And learned from the mouth of the Emperor Taishang that this secret passage is only known to the emperor, not to mention that the queen does not even know the family of the old prince who originally lived in the Lin Guogong Mansion, which can be described as extremely secretive. It was only more than thirty years ago that a little boy suddenly broke into the palace one night. After investigation, I learned that this child was the son of Lin Guogong's family. Accidentally broke into the secret passage and came to the palace. At that time, he was still the emperor, and immediately re-gave the mansion to the old Lin Guogong family. The house was in ruins. Fortunately, the child was still young, and it didn't take long to forget about it.
After hearing this, Qin Fengwu became more and more puzzled, since only the emperor knew, then why did the queen know about this secret passage. It's incredible. It wasn't until Qin Fengwu saw a person at the banquet that all this suddenly became clear.
