Chapter 33: Feibai Jingkang
I waited for a few more days to learn the palace rules and etiquette, but this time there was no spring dawn, and God Ji was not there, so everything was subject to Su Niang's arrangement.
In the world, women are very demanding, and there are many unfairness between them and men.
In this way, I admire Emperor Pingyu a little, although she has a noble status, but her majesty has nothing to do with her background, it is not easy to make the men in the imperial city, including the human emperor, respect a little.
Thinking about it, my Jiao clan is more comfortable, and I don't need to look at other people's faces to act.
Su Niang taught all the women with kindness and power, and in private she was a kind person, compared with the previous Chunxiao, everyone liked Su Niang very much.
Because she is good at dancing with long sleeves and winning the hearts of the people, Hesui Palace is temporarily harmonious, and Emperor Pingyu also looks down on Su Niang.
I said to Su Niang that day, don't look at me differently in front of people because of some affection.
Su Niang knows my heart, so it's a good thing for me and her, and occasionally she will talk to me at night.
Sister Bai Rong knew that I was good friends with Su Niang, and said that I was "bitter and sweet", and she was happy for me.
I was close to Bai Rong, and sometimes Su Niang was present, and I could see that Su Niang was very optimistic about Sister Bai Rong, and secretly told me that she had extraordinary qualifications and had the demeanor to sit in the back seat.
When Su Niang was away, I joked to my sister: "The female officer said that you stand out, and it is not difficult to come and sit in the back seat!"
Bai Rong covered my mouth in panic and asked me to "stop talking nonsense!"
But I could tell from her seemingly calm eyes that she was still happy.
Su Niang was a little bit in front of Sister Bai Rong, I didn't understand, but I didn't ask Su Niang, she once told me to be more cautious in the Imperial City, and then talked about Bai Rong again, and said casually: "Su'er, you don't want to be your sister Bai Rong as an enemy in this life, she will be good to you, but her heart is too meticulous." ”
Because of our closeness, I asked her to call me a child, as long as she didn't be listened to by others, of course, Qiu An is my person, and it doesn't hurt for her to hear it.
In addition to me, Su Niang is only good friends with Qiu An, she said to me: "Qiu An is safe, with her by your side, my aunt is more relieved." ”
Qiuan told me that the guard who saved me was called Feibai.
I didn't think so, I had already expected that he was Jingkang, and Feibai thought it was a fake name.
It's just that he has been following behind Wu Beihan, and he rarely has leisure, and when Wu Beihan is not there, there are other guards together, and it is difficult to meet him alone.
When he walked past the people beside me, he just saluted according to the rules, and did not look at me directly, and when he looked at me, there was arrogance and disdain in his eyes, and I really did not know where to offend him.
With this, I walked with Miss Hanyan and Condensation, and the maid of Miss Hanyan saw Feibai walking over with Wubei Han, and said to Hanyan: "Girl, before Chunxiao left the palace, that guard seemed to often guard the gate of our Yong'an Palace, but as soon as there was someone, he was far away. ”
Hanyan girl glanced at her maidservant, and then looked at the guard, I felt that her gaze swept over me intentionally or unintentionally, and said, "I think it is Wubei Han who is worried about the spirit girls and has strengthened the guard!"
Condensation pouted, didn't say anything, since Chunxiao left the palace, everyone has been safe for a few days, and she is the same as when she first entered the palace, love and me-for-tat.
Miss Hanyan's words are a pretext, she herself is smart and icy, and she said this because she didn't want people to talk about it.
How can there be such a coincidence in the imperial city, and even if Wubei Han is taken seriously, his hand will not be able to reach out to the river Sui Palace of Emperor Pingyu.
There were two times when I saw Feibai walking alone, and I wanted to question him, but he avoided me from a distance and refused to come, and Qiu An was also beside him, so I had to give up.
One day, Qiu'an was called by Su Niang to help sort out the noble girl's book, and I met Wu Beihan on the way back to Yong'an Hall alone with a few people and came over to see me salute.
I called them to excuse me, and under the pretext that my kite was hanging in the courtyard of the west house, I asked him to send someone to me.
Wu Beihan promised, and just about to point to a person, I pointed at Feibai and said to Wu Beihan: "Just him, grow taller!"
The rest of the guards wanted to laugh, but Wu Beihan glared at them, and those few immediately calmed down.
Wu Beihan also had a little suspicion in his eyes when he looked at me, he saw that I had always been calm on weekdays, and I shouldn't be a fool, but after all, my position was there, and he couldn't say anything, so he ordered Feibai to go with me.
Feibai kept his head down, responded to Wubei Han, and didn't say anything else.
When Wu Beihan's group left, Feibai and I walked in the direction of Yong'an Palace, and he followed behind me, far away.
He obeyed the rules of the Imperial City, but I couldn't find a suitable opportunity to talk to him.
When I got to a secluded and uninhabited place, I casually shouted, "Jingkang!"
He was calm and did not answer anything.
"Do you really want to keep pretending?" I asked him straight to the point.
Feibai didn't intend to admit it, but he raised his head at this time, as indifferent as usual: "The villain doesn't understand what the princess is referring to, and he doesn't know anything Jingkang, and I hope the princess won't embarrass the villain." ”
His expression is just like when we met on the Chunxiao Terrace that day, although he has hidden his heroic spirit and looks mediocre, I also know that it is him.
I sighed: "Are you having something to do, or are you annoyed with me, you have to give me an explanation, right?"
"Little ......" he still wanted to keep it a secret.
I raised my voice and shouted to him, "Enough!"
He looked around and saw that no one was looking at him, his eyes were still cold, but his body was straight, and there was no trace of the guard's appearance to the princess.
I thought he was going to admit that he was Jingkang, and he couldn't help but be happy.
After he stood up straight, he said to me indifferently: "Princess, why is it so painful, what does it matter who I am, the princess of the Jiao clan has an extraordinary status, and now that she has entered this imperial city, His Majesty the Emperor of the People's Republic of China looks at the princess differently, why should the princess care who the villain is, and the princess is very talented, she has a good future that you should have, and she enjoys endless wealth and glory!"
I guess that's an admission.
At this time, the sky was yellow, and it was almost evening, and the wind rose in the imperial city, how could the June sky in this world be so cold.
Feibai, no, it should be Jingkang, don't stay any longer, turn around and walk in the direction where Wu Beihan left, completely ignoring the fact that I told him to go to the Yong'an Palace.
I still want to keep him, but I don't know what to say, there are many people in the Hesui Palace, and I see Qiu An coming from a distance.
In this way, I could only watch his back leave, and then watch his long shadow pulled by the setting sun dissipate into the darkness of the palace wall.
"What's wrong with the princess?" said Qiu'an, who came over and asked me with concern.
I shook my head, was supported by Qiu'an, and returned to the Yong'an Palace.
This night, Qingqing, Bai Rong, and Su Niang were all separated by the rain and didn't come to me.
I didn't fall asleep late, and stayed awake until midnight, when the familiar sound of the flute was remembered over the Imperial City, even though it was pouring rain outside. The sound of the flute is still ethereal, hitting people's hearts.
On the second day, I heard a bad news, and Qiu An told me with red eyes: "Princess, Su Niang is dead!"
