Chapter 114: The Red Clothes Were Public
The Royal Palace
The palace is very elegantly furnished, and it is completely different from the temperament of the man in red who is sitting at the table, and the man's expression is focused on a drawing in front of him, revealing a bit of bewitchment because of the slightly raised eyebrows.
Mu Tianxing's appearance when he meditated seemed to have become the background of the objects behind him, and the subjects said that the three princes were somewhat similar to their biological mother Concubine De Niangniang in appearance, but in recent years, Concubine De Niangniang rarely went out of the harem, and some ministers still remembered that when Concubine De was still a nobleman, her behavior was a little ostentatious and even domineering, and even the majesty of the queen was probably not suppressed, and then I don't know why, there was not much fighting in the harem.
The man in the red robe was a little more colorful than before, and the person who stepped in by the door suddenly whispered something in his ear, and there was some ghostly light in the eyes of the person who sat there, but it was not very obvious.
The people who came into the house stood aside, their very ordinary faces mixed in with the crowd and could not be found.
After a while, a woman led the two palace maids behind her to walk in, although the woman's makeup was elegant, but it was still difficult to hide the natural style in her eyebrows, about thirty or so faces, when she looked at the people in the room with smiling but vague sad eyes, half of the expression under her eyes turned into a stronger sadness, and the other half ...... But there is something hidden in the heart.
"Mother" Mu Tianxing got up and saluted, probably feeling the thoughtful gaze of the person in front of him, he had a very meaningful smile on his expression, and said: "Today's Erchen suddenly remembered that the red clothes he loved before had not been worn for a long time, and he took it out if he had nothing to do today. ”
The red clothes were a little confused with the eyes of the woman in front of her, and the woman's expression was obviously stunned, but her pursed lips suddenly turned into a faint smile, and her child also looked better in red......
The woman's expression was a little dazed, although she was looking at the person in front of her...... There is no such reflection in the eyes.
"Or is red clothes more suitable for you......" The emperor's meaning back then was that she was not allowed to wear purple clothes, just for a woman who had been dead for many years, and there was no such color in the harem.
"The emperor still likes more red clothes." The woman sat down slowly, her posture elegant, her tone with an incomprehensible exclamation, and a trace of doubt appeared on the face of the person standing, but she thought before speaking.
"If the mother concubine doesn't like the red clothes, the sons will no longer wear this clothes in the future."
"The son knows that the mother likes purple clothes, so she wears them every day, and the mother is happy to see it."
Mu Tianxing kept smiling at the corners of his eyes when he said this, but if he looked closely, there was a bit of bitterness hidden in the smile.
The woman watched and listened carefully, and the gaze left on the red clothes gradually deviated intentionally, and it has been more than twenty years...... The purple garment she hated the most.
Now my mood is no longer so strong, but I don't know when my love for red clothes has faded, and I loved this outfit the most when I was young.
"But I heard from which sister-in-law in the palace, how old is the concubine, I don't care about this." The woman's eyes were much warmer because of the tea brought by the maid, and the emperor still remembered the tea she loved, and it seemed that from a very young age, the child was so sensible, and sometimes thought that her mother was taken care of.
Mu Tianxing's eyes shone brightly because of these words, but his calm appearance did not change, and he still had a flat expression when he was admonished.
"Mother, it should be the son-in-law who asked you to say goodbye in the past." The person standing beside Mu Tianxing retreated silently, except for the other waiting maids in the house, it was the first time that the mother and son got together like this when there were few people.
The atmosphere is different......
"Okay, have you seen the son of the Qi family?" The woman in green clothes had a gorgeous face because of her elegant temperament, and the gentle smile on her face made people never think that the flamboyant concubine would be so quiet and elegant back then.
But the woman's countenance is ...... like this looks younger, but the light in his eyes seems to have seen all over the sea and gradually converged.
"We met once that day at the tournament between the two houses, but we haven't been in touch privately...... If the concubine wants to ask this. The man's reply did not show the slightest surprise, it was still a faint smile on his face, and it was not as obvious as outsiders had seen and said.
"Do you want to use the Qi family to suppress the Fu family?" There was no emotion in the woman's words, and the dark light in the eyes of the person in front of her brightened a little at that moment, but in the end, it was not revealed, Mu Tianxing shook his head, and ...... in front of the concubine He hasn't hidden anything yet.
"Why does the mother concubine think like this...... Mu Tianxing knows that although the mother concubine is deep in the harem, although the harem concubine is not allowed to interfere in politics, but the wisdom of the mother concubine is not only in judging the situation, but also in understanding the opponents of the father.
"The Qi family has never been involved in the affairs of the royal family, although the status of Concubine Qi Liang in the harem has never been low for many years, and now the Fu family is the largest merchant family in the capital, and the faction of light merchants in the court is bound to mention the name of the Fu family every time it is written...... Your father doesn't like to mention it. ”
Mu Tianxing looked at his mother, and the face in front of him was such a look of reminiscing about the past, and his eyes darkened a little, he often heard his sister-in-law say when he was young, how much favor the mother concubine was when she first entered the palace, and the harem concubine's eyes were much redder, although it was not as noble as the queen's position, but on the one hand, getting the emperor's favor was what they wanted, at that time, the mother concubine was dressed in red, and had the pride of the children of the rivers and lakes, but now, it is ...... The woman in front of her, who has not yet aged herself, does not know what to look like in her heart.
"Why doesn't my father like ......?"
"It's about something from many years ago, so ...... After all, these things are not mentioned, if you want to do something big, then let it go, it's good to do it, not like your mother...... Trapped in the palace. In the last sentence, the woman's smile was with visible wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, but Mu Tianxing only saw the helpless smile on the face of his mother, his mother...... I don't know when I broke that unyielding heart.
"If the son is in the future...... will definitely give the mother everything she wants. He didn't say those words, but he knew that his mother would not feel that he was rebellious, nor would she give him advice to help him win the ...... This world.
"You two go back to the palace and help me get the red clothes." The woman suddenly leaned over and said to the maid beside her, her face was still so upright, she was old...... I forgot to bring the gift for Xing'er.
Xing'er's 21st birthday...... But you can't be sloppy.
"Yes, sissy." The two maids bowed and retreated, and Mu Tianxing had a smile on the corner of his mouth, but he didn't know what the concubine was going to say next......
"If there is anything else in this palace that is worthy of the mother's affection, the mother's concubine will not say such a thing just now, tomorrow on your birthday, the mother's concubine thinks that it is better to give you something...... In the future, if you have something unclear, thinking about the figure of the mother concubine in the harem, if the mother concubine goes with your father, you will have a thought. ”
Tears had already appeared in the woman's eyes as she spoke, but Mu Tianxing's entire thoughts were like a glimmer of cold light revealed by being immersed in snow water, Only the bitter smile on the corner of his mouth, he suddenly understood the reason why his mother suddenly came over today...... It turned out that it was because of that person, because that person was long gone, that he became a shadow of that person since he was a child.
Somewhat unwilling!
There were only two people sitting in the room, and the silence suddenly spread between the two, and the woman's expression was indeed filled with sorrow, as if she had left a great regret or fault in her youth, and she knew that there was no chance to make up for it in this life.
"Mother concubine......" Mu Tianxing's lightly covered eyes slowly raised, and he looked at the person in front of him with a serious smile, he didn't understand it for so many years, and even more so when he was young...... When the concubine looked at him, it seemed that he was looking for another person through him, but every time the disappointed look appeared in front of him, he desperately hoped that the concubine could find what she was looking for in him...... Even if...... It was the existence of his jealousy.
Because of this sound...... The woman's mind returned to the present.
"Mother...... I don't know what the name Tianxun has to say...... Erchen has been wondering for years. Mu Tianxing said lightly, the smile in his expression was no longer the one just now, and he inexplicably added a lot of sorrow.
The woman in front of her seemed to be frightened, and there was an unexpected look on her face for a moment, and even her face was pale at that moment, but a very strange smile seemed to appear in the woman's eyes......
"Heavenly Search...... Looking for ......" Mu Tianxing looked at his mother concubine a little stunned, and couldn't help but blame himself in his heart, he knew that this was a secret that his mother had never been able to touch, but he didn't expect that so many years had passed...... It will continue to be so for now.
"Okay...... Your father's country was bought by blood, and if you have this intention or means in the future, your mother will not say anything, but she wishes...... I only hope that you can keep the joy of a hundred years of territory. This is what the man wanted, and now it continues in their son, and she will not hinder or help her, but she will repay the kindness of that night, for the sake of her child, who is probably gone...... Accumulate blessings.
"Mother...... Erchen knew. Mu Tianxing seemed to breathe a sigh of relief in an instant, since the mother concubine was unwilling...... It's better to think he doesn't know.
The man who was sent to fetch the clothes has returned......
"Niangniang" seems to have brought a piece of clothing...... Mu Tianxing looked at his mother's sleeves lightly, as if she was wiping her ...... Something that shouldn't have been. His eyes darkened......
"Okay, I remember that my mother said when you were young, if you have something you like, why hide it because of other people's moods, originally there are bitter and happy tastes in this day, how good it is for you, how to live."
The mother felt ...... Xing'er red clothes are the most suitable, like a fire, just like the mother concubine when she ......was young, "The light in Mu Tianxing's eyes has never been so bright, and the words that the mother concubine said to him today have not been as much as today for several years, and the mother concubine is ...... at this time In the eyes is his reflection.
It doesn't matter who you are looking for that day...... As the mother said, if you have something you like, why hide it, life is short.
