Chapter 4: The Courtyard is Deep 8
Ever since the Narancolo affair, I've become more cautious. When I don't have anything special, I mostly stay in my tent, don't hang out easily, and don't walk around. First, it was to prevent that rough man from finding another opportunity to retaliate against me, and secondly, I felt a little guilty in my heart, and I was afraid that I wouldn't know what to say when I met Yinzhen.
On this day, as usual, I was on duty that night, and I prepared Kangxi's favorite refreshments and the tea leaves I was used to eating early, and waited for his old man to come back after the negotiation with the Mongolian prince.
I was in a daze, when I suddenly heard a sound of footsteps, thinking that Kangxi had come back early, and was about to get up to say goodbye, but when I looked up, the person who came turned out to be Zhang Tingyu.
I stepped forward to say goodbye, "I've met Master Zhang." ”
When he saw that it was me on duty, he was also kind, and said with a soft smile as before, "It's not so polite, get up, we are not outsiders." ”
Although he said so, I can't really take it as if it's okay, after all, he is now a close minister of the Son of Heaven and a future Zaifu, so I'd better be cautious. "Thank you, Lord Zhang."
"I haven't seen you for a few years, and my sister is really angry." He sighed softly.
Could it be that he forgot that I am not Zhao Jia Shaoying?! Or are you pretending to be confused with me, waiting for me to show myself?! Although we had a sincere conversation before he was released, saying that we had abandoned our previous suspicions, he had never taken the initiative to contact me in the past few years, as if he didn't know each other, and he didn't even mention it when he returned to the imperial palace, and he treated it as if he hadn't seen it before in front of Kangxi.
"Where do the adults say, the status of the slave and maid, I don't dare to climb high." As a person, backbone is very important, especially for a proud person like me.
"Hahaha, my sister is minding that my brother doesn't recognize each other these days, right?" He burst out laughing, and the crisp and crisp laughter made me look so good.
He stared at me fixedly for a while, "Girl, did you forget to make an appointment with Zhang?" His smile grew deeper and deeper, as if he had printed the bottom of his eyes. I remember that I had an appointment with you before I left Beijing, and when we see you again in the future, you will still be my sister Shaoying. ”
Is this a joke for me? I frowned slightly, and I didn't rush to answer, and let's see what else he had to say.
He smiled and continued, "I've been out of office for the past few years, and when I'm bored alone, I'm quietly thinking, what are you doing at this time? Really reading books? Learning the piano? Or do something else. After a long time, I really think of you as Shaoying's sister, not someone else. ”
I was amazed at his straightforwardness, these words came out of his mouth, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he said it as a matter of course, and there was nothing that should not be done.
But, isn't the person in his heart Princess Wen Xian?
"I know what you're thinking. You're just thinking, the person I should be thinking about should be her, not you! When he saw my expression, his smile suddenly faded, and it turned into a gloom that I couldn't understand, "Perhaps, I used to keep her in my heart and quietly treasured it, but, in the past few years, I have gradually understood, since I have no chance in this life, why should I be entangled." One flower, one world, one leaf and one Bodhi, isn't that what it means, let it go, and each other can be happy. ”
He said it clearly, and I heard it clearly.
Although at this time, I don't know what kind of feelings he has for my relationship, but I don't have to dwell on it, after all, I know my future, I just need to follow history step by step.
"It's best if you can see nature." I smiled and said, "I should have congratulated you on your ascension." Although, it's a little late to say it now. ”
He covered his mouth and smiled, showing a slightly embarrassed look, "Sister, it's wrong." ”
I asked curiously, "Isn't it considered a high ascension when you return to the Imperial Palace?" ”
He shook his head helplessly, "You have been in front of the emperor for some days, have you ever heard that the emperor decreed that it will be sealed to me?" Or is it a clear order to summon me back to Beijing? ”
When he said this, it was as if I hadn't heard of anything like this, so I shook my head inexplicably.
He said, "That's it, I just went back to Beijing with a verbal order, and at present, I have pressed a study to walk, and I have no rank or title." ”
"It turned out to be three no-personnel." I said with a smile.
"What do you say about three nothings?!" He was confused by what I said about the second monk, and asked back a little strangely.
I just remembered that the ancients didn't have this concept, so I hurriedly smiled and said, "Nothing! In fact, you don't have to worry, if you can return to Beijing, it means that the emperor wants to reuse you, and your good days are still ahead. ”
"Chengjun Jiyan." He bowed respectfully, and I giggled along with it.
I haven't seen each other for three years, and today is a good start, at least, I have one more ally in front of the Emperor, which is indeed a good thing to be.
