Chapter 216: Extinguishing the Mouth
"Okay, you go see him, tell him a word, and let him arrange for us to leave the palace as soon as possible." When Miao Jinxiu finally finished speaking, Chen Linlin's eyes moved away from her face, and the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, "You be careful, don't just care about being sticky with him for others to see, you have to pay attention to your own safety......"
Speaking of this, she felt that her voice seemed to be a little more cold and sarcastic, and she paused, and then explained softly, "You must be careful—"
"I'm not sticky with him." Miao Jinxiu muttered and explained, "It's not that you said you don't want to offend him, coax him to take us out and talk about it, so I talked to him." ”
She hoped that Chen Linlin could say a few more words to herself, but she waited for a while, but she didn't hear Chen Linlin say a word.
It was already dark, and the palace lamps outside were lit one after another, and there were already palace maids who asked the outside twice if they wanted to hold the lamps, and this time they asked again, Chen Linlin finally answered, "Come in, in addition, take two lamps and give them them, so that you can send Miao Guiren back." ”
Miao Jinxiu was a little disappointed, before the palace maid came in with a lantern, she quickly ran to Chen Linlin's side, hugged her, pasted her face, and then sat upright, and waited for her palace maid to arrive at the door, then she got up dignified and blessed Chen Linlin, "That sister also rested earlier, sister, I went back." ”
Chen Linlin nodded, got up and smiled and sent her to the door.
The palace lamps are tall and bright, and from a distance, the two red lights soon merge into the starry galaxy of the world.
The people were no longer visible, but the wind was blowing, and small snowflakes were gently falling down.
The palace maid behind Chen Linlin said carefully: "It's snowing, the nobles should go in and catch a cold carefully." ”
Chen Linlin neither nodded nor shook her head, just stood there, staring blankly at the back that was no longer visible.
The palace lights were bright, but the figure was no longer visible—she was far away.
The snow is falling heavier and heavier, like catkins, flying all over the sky.
Chen Linlin turned around and went back, untied the cloak on her body and handed it to the palace maid, her expression was gloomy, her brows were tightly locked, she slowly sat back on the edge of the bed, and said for a while: "You all go down, I want to be quiet alone." ”
When the ladies went out, she took out a jewelry box from the closet, took out a small key from her purse, and took out a stack of letters from it.
She laid the letters on the bed and unfolded them one by one.
“…… After talking to you that day, whether it was getting up early in the morning or going back from you, my heart felt bright, and I felt that there was hope in life again, and even the boxy sky in the palace did not seem depressed. When I'm in a bad mood, I miss you, open the window and think that you and I are under the same sky, drinking tea and reading books have become extremely interesting......"
“…… I caught a cold, I can't come to see you, even my favorite bird's nest porridge is not interesting, in fact, I didn't say anything when I saw you, but I was used to it, seeing your eyebrows and eyes, as if I saw myself, my heart softened, no matter what, even your somewhat cool smile can lift my spirits......"
"Playing the piano and boiling tea can wash away the filth of this world, and you are above all that, a necessity in my life, just like the stars that converge into the Milky Way, and gather into a bright light......"
……
She read those letters word by word, as if they were going to be engraved in her heart.
Chen Linlin gently stroked those words, and a trance smile appeared on the corner of her lips, "Such a person who is so out of his mind, and the letter he writes is such a lingering ......"
She smiled sadly, and with trembling hands gathered the letters together, she walked towards the brazier.
Walking to the brazier, she seemed a little reluctant, and she didn't throw it in for half a day.
Chen Linlin slowly closed her eyes, took a few deep breaths, and let go of her hands-
With a slight "whirl", the fire in the brazier burst into flames, greedily devouring the letters.
With a slight popping sound, the letters became flames, flames, black butterflies, ashes......
There was a little bit of paper that escaped from the brazier, Chen Linlin didn't care about the heat, picked up the piece of paper in her hand, but found that it was just a piece of paper without a little handwriting, she sighed lightly and threw the piece of paper into the brazier.
The pieces of paper fell slowly, flying with the flames......
Miao Jinxiu walked for a while, and found that the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and they were all like cotton wool that had been rubbed off, and gradually even the vision in front of her was a little blurred, and the wind was even tighter, blowing her shivering.
She gathered the cloak on her body and told her two palace maids, "You two shrank your hands into your sleeves, just carry the lamp, you don't have to be so upright now, no one will see such a big snow." ”
The etiquette of the palace people cannot be wrong at all, even if it is such weather, the aunts in charge will be seen by the aunts in charge, and the nobles they are waiting for are not favored, and whoever sees it can step on both feet.
With Miao Jinxiu's words, the palace maids breathed a sigh of relief, and invariably shrunk their necks, trying to keep the little heat on their bodies longer.
One of Miao Jinxiu's henchmen complained: "This Tubo is too cold, it is early winter, it is already cold like this, if it is cold winter, I am afraid that I will not even dare to go out." These days, Zanmeng is unconscious, and even the nobles have been treated slowly, and I don't know when this day will end! ”
The other was blinded by the heavy snow, couldn't see the road clearly, and staggered, and also echoed: "That's it, and the houses here are all the same, and the inside is going around and around, and the slaves and maids don't recognize it clearly for so long, and they have been lost several times......"
Get lost?
Miao Jinxiu's heart froze, she raised her eyes and saw that the temples near and far were covered with snow, and in the night, only the flickering lights shone far and near, and it seemed that the southeast and northwest were not very clear, and she didn't feel a little panicked.
In order to go back to her own palace earlier, she listened to Chen Linlin's suggestion and specially picked up this shortcut, but she originally estimated that she should have almost arrived at the place, but it looked very unfamiliar.
It's not unfamiliar, but it looks almost the same, and she doesn't know if it's almost there.
"Which palace is this, can you recognize it?" After carefully identifying it a few times, she couldn't make up her mind, so Miao Jinxiu opened her mouth to ask her palace maid.
The two looked at each other and shook their heads blankly, "The slaves and maids saw that Chen Guiren asked you to go this way, and you didn't say anything, and you thought you knew ......."
Although he is a confidant, there is a meaning of complaining about the master in these words, so the palace maid lowered her voice as she spoke.
When the three masters and servants were worried, they heard the sound of creaking snow, coming from the palace alley at the other end behind them, getting closer and closer.
Miao Jinxiu looked back and saw a group of people holding wind lanterns, clustered in front and behind, and a warm sedan chair walking towards this side.
Looking at the posture, it should be the palace concubine's guard of honor, Miao Jinxiu followed the rules and took the palace maid to stand aside, planning to wait for the sedan chair to come over and salute, and ask the path by the way.
She secretly prayed in her heart that there were people who could speak Tang dialect, otherwise, with the few words of Tubo she knew, she might not be able to ask the road clearly.
The snow was cold and windy, she didn't move, just stood for a while, Miao Jinxiu felt that her body was going to freeze numb, but the sedan chair walked slowly, and she had to wait patiently for the pedestrian to come.
When the palace lanterns reflected the snow and walked to them, Miao Jinxiu took the palace maids together and stepped forward to salute.
The sedan chair stopped, and a lazy voice came from inside, "Who is still walking outside in such a snowy weather?" ”
It was a woman's voice, which sounded delicate and charming, and a little crisp, like beads rolling on a jade plate and falling on the velvet, which was very pleasant to listen to.
It sounds a little like the voice of that Muyaru Sajamin.
Although it was spoken in Tubo, fortunately, the sentence was simple, and Miao Jinxiu barely understood, so he replied with a smile: "If you go back to Mu Yarusa, we are from Lesheng Palace." ”
She didn't learn her Tubo language by heart, she didn't speak it very well, she was simple and a single sentence, and she stumbled and stumbled, and Jia Muzeng in the sedan chair seemed to have lost her patience and said something.
Miao Jinxiu saw several people walking towards them.
Before she could react, she saw those people come to them, and with lightning speed, two people on one side detained the three of them to death.
Others covered their mouths with their hands.
When she came back to her senses, Miao Jinxiu found that those people were quite powerful, and they actually buckled her tightly, and she couldn't move for half a minute, and the palace lamp in the hands of the palace maids had fallen to the ground at the moment, and the light shook on the snow, and the snow light was reflected in her eyes, which was very dazzling.
Miao Jinxiu closed her eyes and exclaimed, "What are you going to do? ”
However, her words turned into a ball of "woo woo woo" because her mouth was covered tightly, and even the people closest to her couldn't tell the meaning of the original words.
Immediately after, someone forced a pill into her mouth, and soon, she felt her eyelids sink a little, and she whimpered a few times, and she tried to open her eyes wide, but she couldn't help yawning......
Knowing that it was futile, she still struggled, and in her increasingly blurred vision, she saw that the two palace maids were knocked unconscious and thrown on the snow on the side.
It's so cold, and when the people who clean the palace tomorrow morning find out, I'm afraid it's already frozen.
Miao Jinxiu opened her mouth wide and wanted to say to those people: Don't leave them...... But she found that she didn't even have the strength to open her mouth, and soon her eyes were dark, and she didn't know anything.
After a few moments, the sedan chair was lifted, and the group continued to move forward, and the snow continued to fall, and the messy footprints on the snow were soon covered. The ground was covered with snow, and the ground was white, as if nothing had happened here, and they had never passed by here.
Behind them, the bodies of the two palace maids were gradually covered in snow.
