CHAPTER XXI
Li Yuni handed over the sleeping child to the wet nurse and sat next to Shangguan Han. Hot wine was warm on the table, and the charcoal fire in the stove was blazing. She straightened her sleeves, gave Shangguan Han the warm wine, and poured herself another glass. Shangguan Han looked out the window, the bright moon was in the sky, and the bright moon was hanging high. The once young and reckless heart has also disappeared quietly with the passage of time. Once, the days when the three brothers talked together and toasted to invite the bright moon are gone, but now they are really separated from each other......
Li Yuni raised her glass and touched him lightly, only then did he retract his mind and look at her and smile: "Why do you want to drink with me?" Li Yuni glared at him: "Did Ying'er say anything to you when she left?" Shangguan Han shook his head: "If you want to say anything, just say it, don't beat around the bush, when you go home, you still want me to guess my mind, do you exhaust me." ”
Li Yuni: "Don't be poor with me, I'll talk to you about serious things." ”
Shangguan Hanya took a sip of wine, sandwiched the food for Li Yuni, and listened to her continue: "I think the Ying girl wants to say something to me, maybe it has something to do with the third child." "On that day, my mother asked me what my eldest brother had told you, but I didn't say anything."
Shangguan Han: "I know that he can't rest assured that he won't be a sister-in-law, and we won't sit idly by." And the third ......"
Li Yuni: "I'm afraid that Jing Chen will know about it......"
Shangguan Han: "Jing Chen knows what's wrong with this, sister-in-law is alone, she won't be able to stand it." ”
Li Yuni: "Shangguan Han, your brain is broken, I'm talking about the third child and sister-in-law......
Shangguan Han: "The two of them were not together before, and it will be even more impossible in the future...... What are you worried about, besides, the third child and Jing Chen will return to the capital soon, what can happen if they are so far away? ”
Li Yuni: "The third child broke his teeth and swallowed it in his stomach, I was afraid that Jing Chen would hear something, and if I misunderstood, I would also care that my beloved man's former old lover was right in front of me, and I felt panicked when I thought about it." "Not to mention the ...... of the church"
Shangguan Han: "Don't talk nonsense, the original thing was grandma, mother was the master, and it was also for the eldest brother." "After so many years, he is also relieved, and he is still holding on to what he is doing, these are nothing more than providence, fortunately, now the third child has been happy, but it's a pity Yunxi, hey, big brother is blessed." Shangguan Han sighed deeply and drank the wine one by one. Li Yuni knew that he was upset, so she never mentioned it again.
Time may be able to dilute everything, and this secret past hidden in the Shangguan Mansion hopes to really heal the pain of the past with the passage of time. Let this reluctance to be mentioned let it be sealed with the departure of the deceased, after all, how cruel it is for the living to have their scabbed wounds torn again......
The matter of sending troops to Burma, which had caused a lot of uproar before, was finally decided. Commanded by the crown prince, Shangguan Jun was ordered to send troops as deputy marshal. The moment she received the holy decree, Jing Chen was still in a trance, she knew that Shangguan Jun had already prepared, but she was still worried. After all, it was a distant place. The dangers of this road are unknown. The most taboo thing for a strong man to go out on an expedition is to be timid, crying and crying. So even if I was nervous, I still pretended to cheer up on my face. She didn't want to show any weakness in front of him. When Shangguan Jun came back, she also behaved as before. After eating, it was still early for her to propose to go out for a walk. Shangguan Jun did not refuse. Although she behaved as usual, Shangguan Jun still saw her unnaturalness, and he didn't expose it. With her all the way to the bamboo forest.
Jing Chen: "It's the first time I've been here, and I didn't know you liked bamboo so much. Shangguan Jun was silent and accompanied her all the way inside. The further he went, Jing Chen found a simple bamboo house. She looked at Shangguan Jun in shock.
Shangguan Jun: "It was built before, but it hasn't been used for a long time. Jing Chen was very curious, so he walked in, but saw that there were many books and ancient paintings piled up in the house. Because no one took care of it, and it was covered with dust. Jing Chen casually took out a book to read, choking her to sneeze. Shangguan Jun pulled her: "There's nothing to see, it's all before, let's go out." Jing Chen was not in a hurry to leave, and took a flute with him when he left. Yin Jingchen gave it to him, Shangguan Jun looked at the bone flute as if he thought of something, held it in his hand and played with it, his thoughts drifting away.
Jing Chen still felt his fugue, and his mood fell to the bottom, and he slowly walked in front alone. When he was about to step out of the bamboo forest, he heard the melodious flute sound: "Lujiang Xiaoguan Zhu Banlun, willow wisps spit buds fragrant jade spring." The two golden hairpins have promised not to make the lone work empty into dust......" is "Song of Regret". In this silent night sky, the sound of the flute is melodious. can't help but sigh at the helplessness of the men and women in the story who love each other but can't love. Jing Chen's tears flowed, and he quickened his pace. Shangguan Jun realized Jing Chen's departure, so he put away his flute and chased after him. Jing Chen was in a hurry, and he chased him all the way to the house. He called: "Jingchen ......" She didn't look back, he turned her body, but saw that she was already in tears. He was stunned by her appearance, and without saying a word, he hugged her in his arms. Jing Chen couldn't break free, so he didn't struggle, so he was immersed in his gentleness......
This night, Shangguan Jun has been holding her in his arms, and she sleeps unusually peacefully on his arm. Looking at the person in his arms, snuggled in his arms like a kitten, he kissed her hair, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled, and he felt satisfied at the moment. Let him pass everything that has passed...... Tomorrow just starts......
That song is a tribute to the past, now that the deceased are gone, the living should cherish the people in front of them. And the past buried in his heart will also go away with the years, maybe one day he will tell her as a story.
Fortunately, he recognized his heart in time, and I don't know when she has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow. The child who has not yet been born, how can he not feel distressed, it is the crystallization of their love. He hugged her again and touched her belly, almost, almost becoming a father. Now I look at the second brother and I am really envious. Especially after having a son, this guy is more and more energetic. and Guan Liren are better than children when they have nothing to do, he said that his family is good-looking, and he said that his family is good. Guan Liren said that his son would call him father, and Shangguan Han said that his child would be sooner or later. The two of you say a word, I say a word, he is like an outsider. Looking at the two fathers because of the stupid appearance of the child, he has only envy.
He knew it was a kind of first-time fatherly pride, and he sniffed her hair and listened to her subtle breathing, and fell asleep.....
Yin Jingchen woke up, felt the warmth around him, and turned around to see that Shangguan Jun was still asleep. She rubbed her eyes, as disbelief as she had woken up from a dream. At this moment, Shangguan Jun's lazy voice sounded: "Awake? She asked him if he didn't have to go to the yamen. He shook his head and pulled her into his arms again. Jing Chen struggled to get up: "It's not too early, I still have to go to see grandma." ”
Shangguan Jun: "Go to grandma's later, grandma won't blame you, I'll leave the camp tomorrow......" Jing Chen was just about to say something to refuse, but he was gagged by him. He kissed her on the lips.....
Before Jing Chen came back to her senses, she heard him say, "I want to accompany you ....." This sentence hit her heart and touched the softest nerves. She hugged him tightly. He felt her relax and whispered in his ear, "Is this day okay?" ”
She understood what he meant, and blushed. Looking at her face like a ripe apple, he laughed out loud. She hurriedly covered his mouth and glared at him. He wasn't annoyed either, and pushed her down with a smile. Kissed her again, gently, until she was completely relaxed...... Then he gently stroked her lower abdomen, Jing Chen was embarrassed by his behavior, and when he understood what he meant, tears appeared in the corners of his eyes. He wiped away her tears and said to her very gently: "Don't be sad, we will have another child." ”
Yin Jingchen waited for a long time for this sentence before waiting for his comfort. She thought he wouldn't be mentioning it. Now, it is like a lost treasure, which fills her heart with anticipation. She used her actions to inform her how important his comfort was to her. She put her arms around his neck and kissed him softly on the lips, and he was ...... little by little And then it became more gentle......
Sunlight pours into the room, bringing warmth to the room. Dispersed the winter cold and the coldness of this room......
After Shangguan Jun set off, Yin Jingchen and Shangguan Han returned to Shangjing together. Because of the business of the Shangguan family, Shangguan Han often traveled back and forth between Pingcheng and Shangjing. Jing Chen also came back because Shangguan Jun was going to return to Shangjing to report on his work in the future. The house that was used for the previous wedding has been renovated and completed. Jing Chen moved in. Empress Yin disagreed at first, but Jing Chen insisted, and Empress Yin could only arrange more people to serve.
Jing Chen thought about the name of the house for a long time, and asked Shangguan Jun before, but he didn't care about it. At the beginning, the emperor named him Orchid Garden, and originally this house was the most famous for planting orchids, and Jingchen liked orchids, so Emperor Yin gave it to her. But later, at Jing Chen's request, a lot of Shangguan Jun's favorite bamboos were planted, and Jing Chen wanted to change his name. In the end, the "Junchen Palace" was decided.
Junchen Palace is not far from the palace, and it is very convenient for Jingchen to enter and exit the palace. On the day of the completion of Junchen Palace, Empress Yin also came to see it in person. But seeing that the courtyard is clean and elegant, and the garden is planted with a lot of bamboo, the wonderful combination of orchid and bamboo is even more fresh and refined. Empress Yin was very impressed.
Yin Hou: "Chen'er, I said why do you want to live here, and I would like to live here instead." ”
Yin Jingchen stuck out his tongue mischievously: "Queen Mother, I want to surprise him." ”
Empress Yin poked her head helplessly: "The daughter who got married spilled the water." ”
