180 reunion after a long absence
I don't know how to get back to the house.
He stood far away outside the house, looking at the plaque on the lintel that was hazy in the rain and laughing.
The dark door suddenly opened, and the sound of the painting could be heard through the rain.
"Fulu Suxi, you lead Xiaoshun to the palace to see why the prince hasn't come back yet? King Rui has been here once...... Let the small full frame get on the car, maybe it will be blocked by the rain. Yuan'er, tell the kitchen to heat the dish again, and tell Lao Hong that the rose sauce has been lost and remade, and the prince likes to eat fresh ......"
The painting stood in the doorway, looking worriedly at the sky.
She was stunned...... The ice-colored figure in the distance covered in darkness was ......
"Lord ......"
She was a little incredulous, and took two steps forward, and the little girl hurriedly held an umbrella over her head.
But she seemed to be ignorant, and only took two quick steps towards the figure.
The figure slowly moved as well.
It's the prince......
She was pleasantly surprised. But...... Why didn't the prince enter the door? Why are you standing here? Why......
The man was suddenly held in his arms, tight, and the powerful arms were bent and trembling.
"What should I do? What should I do......"
"Lord ......"
Zhihua was frightened, she had never seen such a lost soul, in her heart, no matter how much the prince was wronged, how much suffering, he would only smile and say to her: "Zhihua, I'm fine." ”
His smile was like a cloud studded with the golden glow of the sun, like a wind carrying the warm moonlight, but at this moment, the cloud shattered, the wind dispersed, and he was helpless like a child, the child who had been bullied and hid in the corner of the palace.
Fixed, looking at Fu Lu Suxi's reddened eyes, he sighed, and his heart was already clear.
She hugged him, patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, and said softly, "Everything will be fine!" ”
Indeed, no matter how dark the night is, there will always be an end, and no matter how much rain rages, there will always be a moment when the sky is clear. And there is no night, you will not feel the preciousness of light, and without rain, how can you see the brilliant rainbow and blue sky?
The wind is still blowing, the rain is still falling, and the palace veil lanterns under the eaves are swaying in the wind, but they are brighter and brighter under the washing of the rain.
——————————————————————
It rained well one night, and the sun rose the next day.
The emperor was interested, and ordered that a riding and archery competition be held in Heming Yuan seven days later.
Tianhao Shangwu, such a competition is held once a year, but the time is not fixed. At that time, not only members of the royal family, but also princes and nobles will need to send representatives to participate in the competition, and the age limit is over 15 years, and the eldest son is preferred. As for the prizes...... Last year, it was the wind chasing sword that accompanied the emperor to the east and west to kill the leader of the rebel generals, and rewarded Meng Kemin, the eldest son of General Fuyuan, and this year's prizes and popular characters are in full swing of speculation.
Of course, the prize is still secondary, the key is that these little palace maids who are just starting to love are eager to see the posture of a group of heroic men on the field, and fantasize about the romantic encounter of heroes and beauties, and then the two love each other, and the world lasts forever.
So in the past few days, the number of Huaichun has surged, and the palace is full of charming and lovely figures, three or three, two of them, talking to each other about rouge gouache hairpins and hairpins, and discussing which legendary characters participate in the riding and archery competition.
"King Xiang must go. Remember last year? King Xiang and General Fuyuan's eldest son, Meng Kemin, was only a little bit behind...... The Wind Chasing Treasure Sword is about to return to King Xiang. ”
"Isn't it? A hundred steps through the poplar, because King Xiang's arrow feathers scraped off a leaf, and the result was ......"
"I don't know who killed the deer this year......
"I heard that the son of Lu Shilang is also going to participate in ......"
"He's the first time, can he?"
"I don't know about this, anyway, I heard that I just came back from Yuewu Pass, and it is said that within ten miles, you can take the enemy's head with one arrow."
"That's too much of an exaggeration, isn't it?"
"The three girls of Fan Shangshu's family are also here......"
"Ah, is it for ......" someone scoffed.
The third girl of Fan Shangshu's family, Fan Lingxuan, had made a marriage contract with Mu Huaijiao, the son of Master Mu, and on the first day of the wedding, Mu Huaijiao suddenly disappeared, and when he reappeared, it was half a year later, and there was a woman with Liujia around him, who was actually his personal maid. In fact, the two have already been in love, but there is a huge disparity in identity, and Master Mu only said that he would marry first, and then take the maidservant as a concubine. How can Mu Huaijiao resolutely refuse to let his beloved suffer the slightest grievance. When the matter came, the Mu family refused to admit this family affair, until the maidservant gave birth to a son, and Fang reluctantly let him be the side room of the son. However, even so, Mu Huaijiao refused to marry someone else. This incident once caused a sensation in the imperial capital, with mixed reviews, but only pitied Fan Lingxuan. This time, Mu Huaijiao represented the Mu family as usual, and then the second son of the Fan family's leg suddenly broke yesterday, so Fan Lingxuan naturally replaced the second brother and signed up.
"It's going to be lively now."
No matter when and where, everyone has a gossip heart.
"Alas, no matter how lively it is, it can't be compared to a few years ago."
"Yes, I still remember the year before last, several highnesses were riding horses and galloping on the field, and the momentum was ......" This person suddenly looked yearning and looked confused.
"This year, it is estimated that it is only Xiangwang who participates. Whether the prince participates depends on his mood, King Wending said last year that he was ill, and King Yu's eye disease seemed to have flare-up again, and King Rui ...... Hehe, he must have taken the opportunity to make a lot of money, and I heard that repairing the Guanwutai was the craftsman he found. King Qingning ......" The mentioner's eyes began to glow, and then dimmed: "I heard that due to the long journey for disaster relief, I was overworked, and it rained again a few days ago, and I am sick, and it is estimated that ......"
"So what's there to see?"
The crowd lamented.
"In fact, the princes faded out of the mounted archery competition to give others a chance, don't you remember that you have to select generals through the competition every year? And His Highness the Seventh and Eighth Highnesses will definitely participate this year! ”
"Together? I'm really worried that I'll fight if I compare with each other, wasn't it last year? was so angry that the emperor rewarded them with twenty boards each, and they were grounded for another month......"
"Alas, it's not interesting to think about this year's riding and archery competition."
"However, there are many upstarts participating in the competition this year, and the border war is a little off, and the emperor has transferred some generals back to Beijing, which should also be a lively ......."
"What's the use of being lively? We palace maids are not something that everyone can see......"
Just one sentence immediately dispelled all enthusiasm.
Someone swept his eyes and found that Su Jinling was next to him, and hurriedly greeted: "Jinling, you will definitely be able to go to this competition, can you bring us over?" ”
Su Jinling was in a daze on the side, and she didn't hear what she was saying at all.
She hurriedly called again, and saw Su Jinling coming over.
"Jinling, you are so favored, it's just a matter of words, help us?"
Su Jinling's face was expressionless, and he said lightly: "I won't go, if there is a place for me this time, you can go up to the top." ”
After speaking, he changed to a farther place and continued to be in a daze.
Several palace maids looked at each other...... Who wants to miss the chance to watch the game?
"Words count......"
They cheered and immediately heated up over who would replace them, and finally it turned out to be decided by lot.
No matter how lively it is, it has nothing to do with me.
Su Jinling sat under the dense banyan tree, unconsciously looking at the moving spots of light on the stone table.
On the night three days ago, she left the garden to return to the Qingxin Palace. However, as soon as he stepped into the trail, he was grabbed by a wrist by a hand.
The familiar sweet fragrance made her follow him into the depths of the forest without resistance.
Looking at the eyebrows and eyes of a long absence, his heart was full of joy, but he ...... Why not be happy?
"What's in your hand?" His tone was as cold as his expression.
She understood something...... This guy must be jealous again. It's no wonder that he has already left the Qingxin Palace, and she still thinks that he has gone back to the house, but she doesn't want him to wait for her all the time, but she ......
"It's the King of Qingning...... It was given to me by someone else, King Tuo Qingning. ”
She explained in a whisper, and she didn't even believe in this reason, let alone the shrewd and wise Yuwen Xuancang?
"Do you blame me for having nothing to give you?"
She frowned.
She did feel that it was wrong to accept Yuwen Xuanyi's gift, but thinking of his nervousness, she couldn't refuse. Besides, he also said that he was entrusted by others, so he didn't want her to be embarrassed, right? So, what can she do? There are some things that I know clearly, but I have to pretend to be ignorant, just to avoid embarrassment, try not to touch this unspeakable, and after a long time, everything will naturally pass.
But Yuwen Xuancang...... Didn't he believe her?
In these days, she fantasized countless times about the sweetness of reuniting with him, but she didn't want to be poured cold water on her thoughts for many days, and the long-awaited relative became so embarrassing.
"The prince has worked hard all the way, so it's better to go back to the house and rest early."
His wrist was clenched, and his fingers were cold and hard.
"You just want to drive me away? Who are you in a hurry to meet? ”
She turned her head suddenly, and said coldly: "The slave maid wants to go back to the Qingxin Palace." The slave and maid have been out for a long time, and the emperor will be suspicious......"
"Aren't you afraid of my suspicion?"
"Do you need to be afraid? You're already suspicious. ”
The force on his wrist tightened, and he actually let go.
When my heart hurts, tears will overflow from my eyes.
It's strange that people sometimes make their own decisions, but once they are allowed, they are disappointed again.
However, it is necessary to leave!
She withdrew her hand, her nails digging into her palm, and walked forward......
"That painting is good...... "You are dressed in this dress...... Not bad either. ”
What does he mean? Could it be that he suspected her of being with King Wending......
This is the reunion she longs for, and the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
She wasn't going to explain anything, she had never been in the habit of explaining.
She kept walking, and he didn't stop her.
The grass was soft, but the steps were getting harder and harder.
She didn't dare to look back, and she didn't want to look back, she didn't know if those cold eyes were looking at her.
Biting her lip to keep the tears from falling, she didn't even notice a flash of light shining overhead, and when she looked up blankly, the thunder was already rolling in.
