Chapter 9: Indulgence (1)
Guining Hall is clean and even a little desolate, there is no need to serve the emperor Chu Jun to become idle, three meals a day are delivered on time by maids, and the days seem to have returned to the time of Hou Yan, at that time he was also alone in the empty and deep Luhua Palace, as if forgotten by the world.
My mother left when I was five years old, and I still remember that she was very sick at that time, sometimes sober and sometimes delirious, and when she was sober, she would hold herself, and talk to herself with a desolate expression. When she was delirious, her mother smashed things like crazy, scolded herself, said something vicious, and even almost killed herself.
Chu Jun stroked the ribbon around his neck, after so many years, he seemed to still be able to feel his mother's exertion at that time, and the suffocation feeling of being out of breath at that time.
After the death of his mother, only himself and the nurse were left, and three years later, the nurse also went, and he was left alone in the huge palace.
The nurse said that her mother was the most favored concubine of her father, and the two of them were envious of others like glue, so they were hated by other concubines, and when her mother was pregnant with herself, she used witches and ghosts to frame her.
My mother named herself Jun and cherished it, but unfortunately, I failed to win back my father's heart for my mother.
The husband is innocent and guilty, Chu Junxi can understand her mother's hatred for herself, if it weren't for herself, she would not lose her father's favor. But he is not innocent, he has borne the consequences of their grievances since he was a child, grew up in a cold palace without warmth, and was bullied all his life.
In the cold deep palace, no one cares about himself except Su Ao. I stayed there for eight years.
originally thought that he would die of old age in Hou Yan's deep palace and no one cared about him, until the body was found, who knew that the will of heaven made people, and he actually embarked on the road of harmony, and originally thought that the life of the backwater would change, but who knew that the emperor was seriously ill and was killed a month later. The rules of Gu Yu, the emperor's guests and queens and their concubines were martyred.
Is it really providence? His life is destined to be desolate.
Chu Junxi smiled and comforted himself, no one in the world can escape death, he has already been prepared, what else is there to be sad about.
After the continuous cold weather, today finally saw the bright sunshine, Chu Junxi stood at the door of the main hall, bathed in the warm sunshine. In the corner of the wall is a row of holly, which is still verdant in winter.
I didn't expect that the man in black to be the second prince Yuan Yongyan, no wonder that the king was imposing, everyone thought that he was still far away, but they didn't expect him to sneak into the palace quietly, Su Xueyao did everything, and didn't think that her every move was under the control of the other party.
Chu Junxi thought of the first night when he looked at the sleeping emperor's eyes, he had feelings for the emperor, but he didn't expect the emperor to pass on to the eldest prince, the immoral and incompetent Yuan Yuheng, he listened to those words outside the window and didn't know what it was like.
If the emperor had the intention of passing on Yuan Yongyan, he would not become Ning Yuanlie's sword ghost, Yuan Yongyan outside the window would prevent the tragedy from happening in time, but it was a pity that he was obsessed with it and pushed himself to a dead end.
For the sake of the throne, Yuan Yongyan did not save his father. The palace has always been a ruthless place, either you die or I die, and I have no right to judge others' shortcomings.
Now that the throne is vacant, the two will have a fight, the eldest prince has his mother Su Guifei Su Taiwei as the backing, and the second prince is alone without assistance, how will he deal with it?
However, these things have nothing to do with him, it took about a month for the emperor to enter the mausoleum, and after a month, there was no Chu Jun in this world to cherish this person.
Shrinking all his life, Chu Junxi decided to indulge once.
As soon as he stepped out of the tall vermilion wooden door with his right foot, Chu Junxi saw Yuan Yongyan coming towards him, and behind him was Lin Jikuo, the guard of that night.
Chu Jun cherished his body slightly.
"Going out?" Yuan Yongyan's voice seemed to be deeper than before.
"Can't I go out?"
"If you go out like this, the guards at the gate of the palace will not let you go." Yuan Yongyan took out a token from his sleeve, "This is my token, when you see this, they will let you out of the palace." ”
The token is tied with a brown veil on the top, a tassel of the same color is below, and the silver token is carved with intricate and delicate patterns. The token tentacles were cold, and Chu Jun silently held it in his hand, "Thank you, Second Prince." ”
Chu Junxi's body was a little stiff, and since she knew that Yuan Yongyan was at the mercy of her father for the sake of the throne, she had a little fear of him. She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until she turned the corner and made sure that the person behind her couldn't see her.
"Qingyu is in their hands, and most of our troops are outside the gate, it is not easy to win with troops, it is better to ......" Lin Jikuo stared at the direction where Chu Junxi's figure disappeared, and said meaningfully.
Yuan Yongyan shook her head, "Even if she serves by her father's side all day long, but with her being a foreign princess, no one will be convinced by what she says, I have other plans for this matter." ”
"Yes."
The lively streets, the rows of shops, the sound of cars and horses, the sound of children frolicking and the shouts of hawkers, everything is so new to Chu Junxi, who has never been out of the palace gate, she is excited and cautious to walk and watch.
There was a juggler not far away, Chu Junxi's eyes were suddenly attracted by the wonderful performance, standing in the crowd and staring at the eyes, the performer's magical performance and superb skills all made her sigh, as the crowd applauded and shouted, the performance ended, someone walked in front of the people watching with a gong in turn to ask for a reward, Chu Junxi learned from others, put all the copper plates that the mask boss found for him, and the person who received the reward nodded and thanked him.
It turns out that there are people in this world who live like this, they are completely different from the life they have lived since childhood, they are lonely and have no freedom, they must live a very happy and chic life.
Chu Junxi turned around, a young man in cloth hurriedly ran past him, the wind blew the hair on his chest, the man looked very anxious from then on, just ran out a few steps and accidentally bumped into an oncoming boy in a brocade shirt, and the entourage behind the boy immediately stepped forward to restrain the man.
The brocade-clothed boy lifted the chin of the cloth-clothed young man and said lazily, "What? Collided with Ben Gongzi and walked away? ”
The young man in cloth said anxiously, "Just now the neighbor said that my mother was sent to the hospital, and I was worried that my mother didn't see the road clearly, so she collided with Childe. ”
"I don't care if you are an old mother or an old father, and if you bump into this son, you will apologize." The boy in brocade glared at him and said viciously.
"Yes, yes, it's my fault, it's me who hit Childe with no beads, and I will compensate you." Thinking about the sick old mother in his heart, he was anxious, and a layer of hot sweat appeared on the head of the young man in cloth in the cold winter.
The boy in brocade smiled evilly, "Since you sincerely apologize, then this son will not embarrass you, this dress is newly made by me, it cost twelve taels of silver, you pay for it, and our business is finished." ”
"Ten...... Two two? "Don't say it's twelve taels, it's two taels, and you can't take it out yourself.
"This is Su Xiu, open your dog's eyes and see clearly, if you can't take it out, don't blame my son for being ruthless."
The heart of the young man in cloth sank to the bottom, this person was obviously blackmailing, "I, I didn't ......"
Expecting that he wouldn't be able to come up with so much money, the brocade boy smiled proudly, "Come on, discount this beast's leg." I want to let the people here know that this is the end of offending my son, and see who dares to be so unsightly in the future. The tone was very gentle, as if the cold was asking for warmth.
The side was already full of people watching the excitement, and there were indifferent people who saw this scene, some whisperers, and even those who watched the excitement with a smile on their faces, but none of them stood up to speak and uphold justice.
"Stop." Chu Junxi really couldn't stand it and walked out of the crowd, she didn't know if the clothes of the young man in brocade were worth twelve taels, but it was too much to break the young man's legs, "Isn't it twelve taels of silver, I gave it for him." ”
"Hey, I really went out and met a nobleman, you want to help him pay for it, right?" The boy in brocade looked up and down at this beauty who suddenly appeared, and his lust suddenly rose.
"Not bad."
"My son is not short of these taels of silver, since you want to help him pay, why don't you exchange it, how about accompanying this son tonight?" The boy in brocade looked at the entourage behind him, and the group laughed in unison, "It must taste good if it looks so beautiful." ”
The first time he heard such explicit and obscene words, Chu Jun blushed with shame, and had no intention of entanglement with these shameless people, throwing the silver to the brocade boy, and Chu Jun regretted wanting to leave.
"Hey!" The young man in brocade stopped Chu Junxi's way, "Beauty, what are you doing in such a hurry, we haven't finished talking yet." ”
"I don't have much to say to you."
"How so? I have the most to say to the beauty. ”
Chu Junxi suddenly laughed, "You want to talk to me, don't you?" Okay, come with me if you're not afraid of dying. ”
