222. The old people are reunited

If she was still a little sober just now, she was really kept in the dark, and she covered several layers of large quilts.

The princess jumped up, put her arm through the crook of her arm, and held her affectionately: "I'll tell you a story...... A long time ago, one of the sons of the god happened to pass by a garden and accidentally glanced down, only to be hooked by a small flower. If you say how beautiful the flower is, it is not certain, because a hundred flowers compete for beauty, each has its own merits, but it is so lovely, people can't bear to leave, just afraid that when it turns around, it will wither in the wind and rain. So the son of the god kept watch by the flower, and kept watching, forgetting the passage of time, forgetting that he was the son of the god, and even one day, the god wanted to summon him back to inherit the throne, but he gave up, he was afraid that if he was gone, the little flower would wither, and he would no longer be able to find its trace......"

"Why didn't he bring the flowers back?" It was not difficult to hear the metaphor, but she couldn't help but interject.

The princess glanced at her, her eyes flashing with a hint of helplessness and sadness, it was so familiar......

"yes, why don't you bring it back?" The princess seemed to say to herself, "Is it because the little flower does not want to leave her homeland, or is it because she waits for it like he waits for it...... I don't know, because the son of the god never asked, he just waited stupidly, waiting for the elegant little flower to look back at him......"

It was a story with a faint sadness, so much so that the princess's voice stopped for a long time, and the two of them said nothing more than watched the bees and butterflies shuttle through the flowers.

The princess smiled, her smile was unmatched with her age, and suddenly changed to naughty: "I heard that the eldest girl has retired from Gu Taiwei's third son?" ”

Cheng Xueyan's mind fluttering in the light sadness suddenly turned, and she didn't know how to answer for a while. This princess is very inexplicable, she was very affectionate to her just after they met, and told such an inexplicable story. said that she was simple, and what she did always seemed to mean something, saying that she had a city, but her eyes were so clear, like ......

Strange, how could she think of that person so often today? He has been gone for more than half a year, if you don't count the chance encounter by the boiling pond river...... Is that man......

"What is the big girl going to do in the future?"

The princess was so direct that she was always a little overwhelmed.

"Big girl, if you were that little flower, what would you choose?"

The princess is definitely a problem baby!

She bent her knees slightly, and politely rejected all questions: "But I wonder why the princess brought this up?" ”

"You may still wonder why I have never met you, but I know that you are the eldest girl of Chengfu? Why do we have no acquaintance and I pull you to say this? Because ......" her gaze stopped on the goose yellow soft gauze shirt, and suddenly smiled mysteriously: "Because of that story......"

Cheng Xueyan is going to be dizzy by her, is this Princess Xinyue bored on weekdays to make fun of her?

"I'm not so bored......" The princess seemed to be able to read her thoughts: "I just saw you at first sight, because ......"

blinked, and suddenly made a frightened look: "I can't say it, otherwise the imperial brother will ignore me again......"

After worrying for a while, I was happy again, and my mouth was loud: "Actually, it's them who are boring, those women, you must ignore them......"

So then Cheng Xueyan learned about the emperor's troubled family affairs. The harem concubines are roughly divided into two gangs, one is to consolidate the marriage between the imperial power and the powerful, the pure daughter, and the other is the girls who have been selected to enter the palace who have been educated in the Guan Ju Pavilion. Because the latter is versatile, it is more popular with the emperor. But which of the women in the harem doesn't want to be on the throne? So the two sides often fight openly and secretly, and frequently compete, but although the former is from a noble background, he will only be arrogant, even if there is a person from the Guan Ju Pavilion, there is no outstanding talent, and it is inevitable that he will be ashamed of himself but refuse to admit defeat. This time, I wanted to take advantage of the emperor's summons to learn a trick or two temporarily, but now the only thing that can get started as soon as possible is singing, and Cheng Xueyan's song to move the emperor's capital has already spread, so ......

"Don't pay attention to that Lan concubine," Princess Xinyue pursed her lips and said indignantly: "I don't know what's wrong with the imperial brother, suddenly promoted a Lan Cai who just entered the palace to Lan Concubine, is it because her cousin is the imperial history Wang Qian?" Don't look at her coquettish and stupid, in fact, she is the most scheming, and now even the queen has to let her have a few points. She tricked others into doing everything, and when she was good, she received the merit and was rewarded, and when she smashed it, she pushed the responsibility on others. This time she has to find you, she must want you to teach her to sing, you must ignore her, when she crosses the river and demolishes the bridge, I am afraid that you will not be able to return when she is scheduled to go back to the house......"

Cheng Xueyan broke out in a cold sweat when she heard this, this palace looks like it is golden and brilliant, the red walls and green tiles are dazzling, and the feelings are ghostly. Since people's hearts are so complicated, and I don't know whether this Princess Xinyue is so good-intentioned, this group of women began to practice intrigue when they were born, and in comparison, the age she really has is just a ridiculous number. In this case, it is better to leave early, but the regulations will wait until the time of the day...... You can't make a mistake by nature, and a mistake may become a big mistake!

Stabilize her mind and give a blessing: "The folk girl has had a friend since she was a child, and now she is a concubine." I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss it very much, I don't know if the princess can ......"

At the moment, it seems that only Liang Peihan is safer.

"Concubine Han," Princess Xinyue hooked the corners of her lips, and she couldn't tell what kind of smile it was: "This summoning order has been issued for a long time, and I don't know if she has prepared a ......."

Cheng Xueyan couldn't understand what she was saying, but when she saw her moving forward, she cautiously followed behind.

Speechless all the way, I saw that the flower road stretched, the different grass shook the incense, the pavilions and terraces were staggered, and the pavilions were lined up, all of which were colorful and luxurious, and the atmosphere was magnificent. But who can believe that there are too many unsightly things hidden in such a pleasant scenery?

I can't remember how many verandahs I walked through, and then I came to a pool of clear water.

At this moment, the sun is shining, even if you fan your body, you are sweating, but the water in this pool is cold, and you feel refreshed after standing on the side for a while.

Looking up, the waves are as flat as a mirror, and the sunlight is directly above the water, which is extremely dazzling.

She squinted and looked at it for a long time, and faintly saw a small bridge in the light, on which seemed to stand a person, very slender, as if a gust of wind could blow it away.

"She's ...... there" Xinyue's expression was subtle and indescribable.

She hesitated for a moment, lifted her skirt, and walked towards the bridge.

Faintly, there seemed to be an extremely cold aroma wafting in. She was a little suspicious, the impression of Liang Peihan was enthusiastic, innocent and lively, she should not use such a cold incense, this person ...... Is it really her?

The people on the bridge should have heard the movement and slowly turned their heads.

The skin as fine as clotted fat is more moisturized in the light, and the powder is applied to add a little charm of a young woman. Her cheeks are plump and her chin is pointed, making her look like a plump peach. The slightly higher forehead is pasted with a coral flower, which makes this face without too much brilliance a little more noble and a little more alienated.

The well-drawn but not sparkling eyes looked at her so fixedly, without surprise or joy.

She only looked at the pair of extremely blessed ingots...... Only these ears seem to have not changed.

Bend over......

Before he could open his mouth, he heard a sentence: "Do you and I still need to perform such a great gift?" ”

It was a very intimate word, but because of this resentful tone, the slightly hoarse voice made people feel cold and estranged, as if this hot summer day was mixed with the gloom of autumn.

She didn't say anything, the two of them stood silently for a long time, and Liang Peihan said, "I've changed, haven't I?" ”

I couldn't answer, just looked at the sparkling pool water.

"Even I feel like I've changed, in other words, which one here hasn't? It's just that you ......" she gathered the sleeves of her intricate and wide embroidered silk robe: "You're still the same......"

Cheng Xueyan smiled with difficulty.

"I knew you were coming, but I didn't know how to face you like this, and now I ...... No one wants to see ......."

"Who doesn't want to see it? Is it true? Even the emperor doesn't want to see him? ”

There was a sudden joking on the side, and when I looked back, it was a few concubines I had seen in the garden before.

"I knew that the concubine was here ......"

"Isn't it? This is a necessary place for the emperor to pass through every day......"

"Otherwise, how could the concubine be promoted two levels in a year, but what about the palace that she entered with the Song nobles......"

This group of women, even in front of people, shows no mercy, which shows what kind of life Pei Han usually lives.

However, there is also pity for hateful people, three palaces and six courtyards...... A man, everyone wants to be favored, everyone wants to block the opponent, but he can't be satisfied, so he is entangled and entangled, and plans to plan again...... She really wondered if all the women who had lived in such a place for a long time were a little psychopathic?

"Sister Han, don't get me wrong, in fact, everyone is envious of my sister......"

"Everyone should envy and envy Sister Lan, but my sister has just entered the palace......"

Liang Peihan glanced at her and walked under the bridge expressionlessly.

"Is my sister so joking?" Lan Concubine pursed her lips.

Liang Peihan stopped, looked back at her for a long time, and suddenly smiled. The smile is still sweet, but it's so sweet that it's a little stiff.

"People often say, 'If you say too much, you will lose', Sister Lan Concubine originally came to find the eldest girl, but it involved me, so wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss?"

Lan Concubine blushed, and suddenly rushed up to pick up the little pink fist and went to hammer Liang Peihan: "Sister Peihan is the worst, she is silent on weekdays, and she will be terrible as soon as she opens her mouth......"

"It's time to fight! It's time to hit ......"

All the concubines laughed, and an episode that could not be said to be a turmoil was over.

Someone started to be open and honest.

"Actually, we came to learn singing from the eldest girl. The eldest girl didn't expect that your reputation had spread to the palace, and the emperor mentioned it a few times. You say that those of us who have not been out of the door since childhood, and who is better than anyone in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, which one will let the emperor take a second look? Big girl, don't laugh, the women in the deep palace can't compare to your ......" emotion, Song Guiren couldn't help but wipe his tears with a handkerchief.
