Chapter 13 Beauty Fu Liu
Gongzi Guang heard about Beiliang's illness, and as the younger brother of Wu Wangyi, he naturally had to care about it. He ordered his servants to prepare the finest ginseng and reishi mushrooms, put them in a small, intricately carved box, and ride to the palace to visit the Beiliang clan.
After sending off the miracle doctor that day, Bei Liangrong always looked preoccupied. There is less tea and rice, and occasionally King Wu comes to the Nuan Jade Palace, but it is just a perfunctory entertainment. King Wu thought that she was seriously ill and had not yet recovered, so he just told his subordinates to take good care of her, and besides, there have been a lot of affairs in the court and China recently, and she has to deal with them, so she doesn't have much energy to accompany Bei Liang Rong.
Bei Liang Rong stayed in the warm jade hall all day and couldn't help but feel bored. I also sighed that my fate was ill-fated, and I had a good poor life, but I just entered this high palace wall, and now I have no way to go out, so I have to sigh a few times at the flowers, birds, insects and fish.
"Gongziguang is here, ma'am!" Zixia hurriedly walked behind the Beiliang clan.
"MadameβMadameβ"
Bei Liang came to his senses and asked:
"What?"
"It's Childe Hikari, he's coming to see you!"
Bei Liang Rong was flattered. I have never had any friendship with Gongziguang, so why did I come to see myself today? Eighty percent of it was because of my illness.
"You go and talk back, say I'll be right away!"
"No!"
Bei Liang Rong dressed up and came to the main hall, only to see Gongzi Guang sitting in front of the desk on both sides. Bei Liang Rong saluted.
Childe Hikaru asked with concern:
"I don't know if Madame's health is better, I specially brought some high-quality ginseng wolfberries today to replenish Madame's blood qi. β
"Childe is bothered! Recently, I have taken medicine and my body is much better. β
Bei Liangrong's cheeks gradually flushed, and she looked radiant. Again:
"Zixia, quickly serve wine to Childe. β
"No!"
"This is the Fufeng Willow sent by the King a few days ago!" Bei Liangrong said.
"Fufeng Willow? What a Fufeng Willow! The king really has a heart, good wine and a beautiful woman!" Gongzi Guang took a sip and praised again and again, "Liu Yixi helps the wind, and there are beauties and wine." β
Bei Liang Rong listened stupidly, as if she saw the green willows on the river outside Zhongli City, the fluttering green ocean sprinkled, the most is the woman in the raccoon clothes, wearing colorful clothes, stepping on the clear river, rippling layer by layer, and humming a little song in her mouth:
The willow is green and green
The river is bubbling and rippling
There are mulberry girls on the riverside
Wormwood is in the hammer
A group of men cut bamboo in the bamboo forest, as if to accompany the women in raccoon clothes, and some of them put down the firewood knife in their hands from time to time and looked at the women by the river stupidly.
Bei Liangrong came back to her senses, her cheeks reflected a faint red light, was it embarrassment, shyness, or joy? She couldn't tell, feeling that the person in front of her seemed to have an inexplicable feeling for her. It's a bit like King Wu, and it's a bit like ...... Like whom?
"Madam, if you are disrespectful and offensive, you really should be punished, you should be punished!" Seeing this, Gongzi Guang couldn't help but relieve himself, in fact, he was relieved of Bei Liangrong.
"Fill it for me, I'll give you a drink!"
Zixia understood, and immediately took the wine jug and filled a glass to Gongziguang.
Childe just held up the wine glass and drank it all.
"Childe doesn't have to be punished. Bei Liang Rong instructed Zixia to fill herself with a glass of wine.
Zixia guarded the flask, looking reluctant.
Bei Liang Rong knew that Zixia was considering that she was sick and could not drink alcohol, especially since wine was a strong thing, and the divine doctor specially instructed her to pay attention.
"Zixia, just one cup, it's okay, you fill it for me!"
Zixia had no choice but to comply.
"Childe, come, I'll toast you!" Bei Liang Rong raised the wine glass, and Childe stared at Bei Liang Rong, holding the wine glass in his hand but looking a little hesitant.
Bei Liangrong covered her sleeves, raised her head gently, and drank it all.
Childe looked at it as if he was admiring a work of art. I saw that Bei Liang Rong drank this cup, her beautiful face was slightly drunk, and her cheeks were glowing with sublime, which was even more moving.
Bei Liang Rong looked at Gongzi Guang in surprise.
Childe Hikaru felt that he was a little out of shape, so he raised his head, drank the glass of wine, and said, "Good wine, good wine!" to hide his embarrassment.
"Childe, the political affairs of the court and the central government are heavy, and the king works day and night, so please take care of it and share it for the king. β
"It should be, it should be," Gongziguang echoed, "Madame is virtuous and talented, the king will be more diligent and attentive with you by his side!"
"What Gongzi said is wrong, I don't know anything about political affairs, and I can't help the king share his worries, I'm really ashamed. β
"Madame doesn't have to blame herself, you don't have to worry about political affairs with the assistance of the ministers of the DPRK and China!"
Bei Liang Rong didn't know that Gongzi Guang in front of him was a far-sighted and politically minded person. And this is laying the groundwork for the mistakes he will make in the future.
"Childe, I heard that the situation in the southwest is tense, I don't know what the situation is?"
"Madame's words are true, since the provocation of Beiliang, the southwestern border has been in a state of turmoil, although we sent troops to stabilize the border war situation afterwards, but the tense situation between the two countries has not changed. The slightest provocation can lead to a big war. "The military affairs of the frontier have always been handled by Gongziguang, so he knows this very well.
Bei Liang Rong sighed unconsciously. She thought of her home, Zhongli, which was the place where Gongziguang said that the provocation of Beiliang took place. And since he entered the palace, he has never been back there. Now that I have no relatives and no reason, I have no worries, but after all, it is the place where I grew up since I was a child, how can I not have a trace of nostalgia?
Gongziguang doesn't understand, he won't understand, at least not now, Bei Liangrong's heart, and the sorrow hidden deep in her heart, are so intense, like a pot of water that has not yet boiled, the stomach is hot, but it has not boiled.
"Madame, if you have something on your mind, you might as well tell me, and maybe I can help you in some way. β
"Nope. Bei Liangrong replied lightly. In fact, such an answer has obviously exposed his answer to Childe Hikari.
Zixia stood aside, feeling Bei Liangrong's heartbeat. Ever since she first met Bei Liangrong, she felt that she was connected with her fate, and no matter what sorrows and confusions she had, she would bear them together. But at this moment, she couldn't go to comfort her.
"Madam, forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, do you have any relatives over there?"
Isn't this viciously poking Bei Liangrong's tears?!
Bei Liang Rong was already sad in her stomach, but at this time, Gongziguang "added fuel to the fire" again, and her tears couldn't help but burst instantly, and her eyes rolled from the corners of her eyes, wetting the desk.
Seeing this, Childe was at a loss and didn't know what to do. looked at Zixia next to her, Zixia understood, and hurriedly went up to comfort her.
"Don't be sad, madam, the past is over, don't be sad about it, be careful of hurting your body!" After speaking, he handed over a handkerchief, "Childe is here, how bad it is to be seen!"
Bei Liang Rong wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said:
"I was a little out of shape just now, please forgive me!"
"No, it's all my fault, I offended!"
Before Gongziguang finished speaking, a waiter outside the hall came to report and said a few words in his ear.
Childe stood up and apologized:
"Madam, there is something at home that I urgently need to deal with. I'll come to the door another day to plead guilty!"
Bei Liang Rong had already stopped her tears, but the corners of her eyes were red, and she instructed Zixia again:
"Zixia, you go and send off Childe!"
"No!"
Gongzi Guang returned to the mansion, and Zhuzhu had been waiting in the hall for a long time, and when he saw Gongzi ushering, he wanted to kneel and bow.
Childe hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and said with a smile:
"Hurry up, please get up! I don't see you for a day, like every three autumns! Zhuzhu, you're really tired of waiting for me!"
"Let Childe worry!"
"It's okay, it's okay, please take a seat, you must be very tired from running along the way!"
Childe Hikari and Zhuan Zhu sat separately.
Childe Guang hurriedly instructed his subordinates:
"Someone, tell the kitchen to prepare wine and meat, and I will wash the dust for Zhuzhu!"
Zhu Zhu hurriedly stopped Gongziguang and said:
"Childe is slow, and there is one person missing!"
Gongzi Guang looked puzzled and asked in surprise:
"What did you say?"
"There's one person missing. β
Childe thought for a moment and suddenly realized:
"You mean Wu Zixu?!"
Zhuan Zhu nodded.
"When he left, he said that he wanted to retreat to the mountains and forests, and I thought it was strange at the time. What do you think about him, he keeps saying that he wants to avenge his father and brother, but at this time he retreats alone!"
Childe Hikaru looked angry.
"Brother Wu knows best, he won't give up so easily, he must have his own ideas. β
"Thoughts? Did he tell you? I see that he looks self-righteous, and if he has ideas, he is the only one! It has nothing to do with us!"
Zhuan Zhu seemed to notice that something was wrong: what happened between Gongzi and Wu Zixu? Otherwise, how could Gongzi Guang be so angry. If there is not even the least trust between each other, what kind of cooperation is there to talk about!
"Childe, Zixu wrote me a letter when he left, he said that he went to Luofu Mountain. I think we'd better wait for him to come back! I'm sure he didn't mean to run away, but there must be some kind of trouble. Zhu Zhu defended Wu Zixu.
Childe's anger weakened slightly, and he waved his hand:
"Well, I'll send someone to find him. β
"Don't bother with the son, let me go. I think only I can convince him!"
"But you've just come back......"
"It's okay, Childe, at least it won't be empty. β
"Uh-huh, that's right, then there are Brother Laozhuan!"
"Childe, let's go now!"
"Don't be in a hurry, you better go home first, you haven't seen your mother for a long time, she must miss you very much." Don't let him miss it!"
"Gongzi Xie cares! Then I'll go home tonight, rest at home for a night, and set off tomorrow!"
Childe hurriedly ordered his subordinates to prepare the car and prepare to send Zhuan Zhu home.
The two said goodbye, and Zhuan Zhu left Gongziguang's mansion in a car.
Looking at the long yellow dust raised by the wheels, Gongziguang looked serious and preoccupied. He turned around, looked up at the plaque on the lintel, pursed the corners of his mouth and smiled, and walked into the mansion.
