Chapter 198: Yuan Chun
"When I entered the palace, I was only fourteen years old....."
In the palace, Jia Rong was listening to Yuan Chun tell her story.
Jia Rong met Yuan Chun today, because what happened with Mrs. Wang yesterday was very embarrassing, so he couldn't say anything today, his head was full of mush, so he asked Yuan Chun to listen to her story today.
I saw the sunlight shining lightly on her cheeks, as bright as spring flowers, as beautiful as the morning glow, and her tone was crisp and soft when she spoke, telling her story.
And Jia Rong was a quiet listener, listening carefully to her every word.
She was fourteen years old that year, and was sent to the palace by Xifu as a thing to please the emperor as a show girl, although she was unwilling but helpless, this kind of thing was not something she could control.
After entering the palace, you can't enjoy happiness, that is the treatment that the family in the court can only enjoy if you have great power, and her family has gradually declined, such as the palace, is a low-level person.
Like everyone else, he learns court etiquette with the aunts in the palace every day, and he also needs to remember all the preferences of the emperor and the queen, and does a lot of dirty work.
That time was the darkest time in her life, and she suddenly changed from a young lady who was served by others to someone else, and this sense of disparity can be imagined.
At the same time, this also aroused Yuan Chun's desire to climb up, she first entered the eyes of the female officials in the palace, and then followed the recommendation of the female officials into the eyes of the queen.
In less than half a year, she was also made a female official, and she has been serving by the queen's side since then.
But after following the queen, I found that the palace I am in now is a huge cage for the emperor and the queen, as long as the queen is still there, all the palace maids will never come out.
The queen is too strong, as long as someone dares to flatter in front of the emperor and is heard by the queen, then that person will definitely not see the sun the next day.
Maybe he fell into a well, or maybe he accidentally fell into the water and drowned.
The most important thing is that the emperor himself also turned a deaf ear to these things, and let the queen come around in the harem, never cared, as long as the queen was okay, he would not care if anyone died.
One thing after another also dispelled Yuan Chun's desire to continue to be on top.
After that, she sat in the palace for so many years, tasteless, and lived like a walking corpse.
Once upon a time, her wish was to be able to go out of the palace to take a look freely, but she was able to go home on the Mid-Autumn Festival every year, and she could only go for half a day, basically she had to go back to the palace quickly after she got home for a meal.
Even sometimes if the queen has something to arrange, she can't even go home for half a day, this is her fate.
After that, she waited for Jia Rong to enter the palace, which finally added a touch of brilliance to the boring life.
"Brother Rong, I'm done."
Yingchun said for half an hour and then lifted the tea cup and took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, she hadn't spoken like this for a long time, this was the first time she had talked about her heart.
After finishing speaking, Yingchun waited for Jia Rong's comment, but he didn't hear him for a long time, so Yuanchun turned his head to look.
But seeing that the distance between him and himself was much closer than at the beginning, the two were now only roughly three fists apart, and the corners of his mouth showed a slight smile, staring at his face stupidly.
"Why are you looking at me, do I have gold on my face?"
"You don't have gold on your face, but I think my aunt is much more dazzling than gold."
Jia Rong replied with a shallow smile, still staring at Yuan Chun.
Yuan Chun was shy by Jia Rong's staring, and a layer of red jade-like faint halo appeared in his snow-white skin, like a new gathering of morning dew, indescribably beautiful and vulgar.
"What nonsense are you talking about, turn around and let you see it."
When Jia Rong heard this, she nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to my aunt!" ”
After saying that, he turned his head away and stopped looking.
But after Yuan Chun saw that Jia Rong really didn't watch it, he felt lost again, and immediately said softly: "You can watch it if you want to, you don't have to listen to me so much." ”
However, this time, Jia Rong directly turned her body to the other side, and said quite stiffly: "I won't look at it!" ”
"Something's wrong!"
Yuan Chun couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw him like this, and said in his heart, if you don't look at it, don't look at it, what are you dragging.
I'm not unusual!
At this time, Jia Rong suddenly said: "Auntie, you just said that you want to go out of the palace freely to have a look, right?" ”
So he listened to me! ’
Yuan Chun was stunned, this was a wish she had just casually brought, but she didn't expect Brother Rong to write it down, she thought that Brother Rong had been looking at her and hadn't listened to it.
Yuan Chun asked, "yes, what's wrong?" ”
This is not just her wish, it should be said that it is the wish of all the women in the palace except the queen.
Jia Rong turned around and said to Yuan Chun with a very serious expression: "Auntie, then I'll take you to take a good look, okay?" ”
His words seemed to be asking Yuan Chun's opinion, but this issue was too far away, it was still several years before Yuan Chun left the palace, and after leaving the palace, he returned to Rongguo Mansion, and he still couldn't see Brother Rong for a long time at that time.
After all, the girl's family has the rules of the girl's family, even if she sees her own brother, she can't be too long.
What's more, Brother Rong is a distant relative, and maybe after going out, he will be married to someone else as a wife, how can he see Brother Rong again, although he has a good impression of Brother Rong, but Yuan Chun is pessimistic about the future.
She didn't think that she could have any good results with Brother Rong, and now being able to talk next to each other every day was the greatest comfort.
"Auntie?"
"Ahh
Jia Rong spoke again, calling Yuan Chun's mind back.
"Good! As long as you can pick me up, I'll go with you and have a good look. Yuan Chun saw Brother Rong'er's serious appearance, and didn't want to make him sad, so he nodded and agreed, in short, he should forget about it in a few years!
However, what Yuan Chun didn't know was that Jia Rong was unprecedentedly serious this time, and he really felt what loneliness was in Yuan Chun.
She seems to be happy every day, but in fact it should be very empty, otherwise how can she come to talk to herself on time every day, not because she can talk freely here, and she doesn't have to worry about anything.
For the situation of loneliness, Jia Rong can let the people in the courtyard play mahjong and play cards, but it is impossible to bring those games into the palace.
Even if she really brought it into the palace, if someone was looking for Yuan Chun to play every day, then wouldn't she come to herself.
So in the midst of the entanglement, Jia Rong made a big decision.
In the midst of talking and laughing with Yuan Chun, time passed quickly, and the two also said goodbye to each other.
......
That night, Yuan Chun was about to fall asleep, but suddenly she seemed to hear a sound, and the sound was very strange.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
This situation is the first time in the few years since she entered the palace, it is strange and scary, Yuan Chun thought of a possibility, that is, whether it will be a ghost.
After all, there are more palace maids and eunuchs who die in the palace every year, and it is not uncommon for a few to become ghosts.
Yuan Chun frowned, retreated to the side of the bed, picked up the quilt and wrapped his body tightly, and then shouted: "Who! ”
At this time, a small voice came from outside the house, but Yuan Chun, who was highly focused, could hear it.
"Auntie open the door, I'm Brother Rong."
Yuan Chun was shocked, what was Brother Rong doing in the middle of the night.
No, I should have asked him how he got into the palace, and he ran into the Forbidden Garden, which was caught and killed.
Yuan Chun hurriedly trotted over and opened the door, and sure enough, there was a person wearing a black night suit standing outside the door, and it wasn't Brother Rong who took off his mask.
"Auntie, I'm here to pick you up!"
Yuan Chun pulled Jia Rong into the room, and hurriedly closed the door, and then asked in a panic, "Why are you here?" What are you here for? How did you get in? ”
Yuan Chun asked three questions in a row.
Jia Rong scratched her head and replied with a smile: "Didn't I say it, I want to pick up my aunt and you go out to have a good look, so I came, as for how you came in, didn't you tell me about the situation in the palace at that time, so I roughly wrote down the roads of the palace, and then I touched in." ”
For Jia Rong's answer, Yuan Chun was scared enough, but he didn't expect Brother Rong to not joke with himself, but to play really, and he was able to write down the route he described in his mouth with a storytelling act, what kind of brain is this.
But now is not the time to praise him, Yuan Chun said solemnly: "Don't mess around, wait for another hour or two when most of the people have slept, and then go back quickly." ”
But how could Jia Rong agree, she finally came in, how could she stop there.
So Jia Rong shook her head and said, "Auntie, didn't I say it, I want to take my aunt out for a good look." ”
"This is a time like this, I mean you should wait until I can leave the palace..."
The more Yuan Chun spoke, the more anxious she became, but before she could finish speaking, Jia Rong interrupted her.
Jia Rong smiled slightly and took her hand: "I can't wait for the eldest aunt to leave the palace, it's been too long, I'm afraid that it will be so long that I and the eldest aunt will forget." ”
His voice was soft, but it was so domineering, Yuan Chun couldn't understand what Jia Rong was thinking at this moment, like a strange person, doing something strange and wanting to break the rules in this palace.
Yuan Chun asked: "Then aren't you afraid that the patrol will catch you and kill you!" ”
Jia Rong shook her head: "Don't be afraid, they can't beat me, besides, I'm not in vain in the Guards, the approximate time of arming and defense and when and where there are people can still be calculated." ”
His statement made Yuan Chun a little speechless, he always didn't seek progress and had nothing to do on weekdays, but he was able to understand everything on the crooked road, and he could even calculate the matter of the guards' defense, which was really strange.
Yuan Chun asked again: "Then have you thought about it, I can't beat them if you beat them, and then you can go out, what if you can't get in." ”
At this time, Jia Rong raised her right hand and said with a solemn expression:
"I promise to send my aunt back completely..."
But then Jia Rong's solemn expression gradually softened, and she raised her eyebrows: "If you can't send your aunt back, then you won't come back, my aunt is hiding from me, I will raise my aunt for a lifetime, let's play in and out of the house to hide Jiao, okay!" ”
I saw him smile softly, with a little seduction in his eyes, but Yuan Chun was really hooked, at this time it was like a bright light flashing in the night, Yuan Chun's white and tender face was red, and the two big dimples were hanging cute, beautiful as the morning glow.
She was slightly taken aback at first, a faint smile rose at the corner of her mouth, and she said with a look of accommodation:
"Good!"
.....
In the end, Jia Rong still succeeded in 'stealing' Yuan Chun out of the palace, and the process was very smooth, after Yuan Chun put on the night clothes that Jia Rong brought for her, Jia Rong ran out of the palace with a light car on her back.
Jia Rong's familiarity with the road to the palace made Yuan Chun think that he often entered the palace to steal incense and jade.
And Brother Rong jumped so high and high, it really scared Yuan Chun many times, every time Jia Rong jumped up, Yuan Chun felt that he had lost his soul and was about to faint.
I had to wrap my arms around his neck tightly, close my eyes and dare not look at anything, dare not look at anything.
Until Jia Rong whispered to her: "Auntie, we are out of the palace." ”
Yuan Chun slowly opened his eyes and looked at the outside world, although Jia Rong was still high on the roof of someone else's house, but at this moment, Yuan Chun didn't seem as scared as he was just now.
The night wind was whistling in her ears, the lights of thousands of homes turned into streamers, and Yuan Chun's heart, which was close to Jia Rong's back, was beating wildly, and she was unconcealably excited in her heart at this time.
In this world, except for the characters in the book, how can anyone else have seen such a scene, escaping from the palace and galloping on a high place, this thrill can make anyone feel excited.
In the end, Yuan Chun set his eyes on Brother Rong again, and remembered what he said before.
"If you can't go back, you really have to hide with Brother Rong."
As a woman, who hasn't had fantasies about feelings, even if she has seen too many battles in the palace, she is still essentially a yellow flower girl.
She had also fantasized that if she hadn't entered the palace, she would have dressed in a wedding dress and covered with a red hijab for whom.
Then, with her husband, you enjoy the flowers in the spring, listen to the rain in the summer, eat the fruits in the autumn, and welcome the first snow in the winter.
Then we have many, many children, and then we watch the children grow up together.
But she is a show girl who was sent to the palace by her family, and she is only accompanied by intrigues, not these worldly gentleness.
But now what she expected seemed to be gradually appearing, since he also entered the palace, there were not so many worries, and there was an expectation every day, and there was nothing to worry about with him.
Yuan Chun even felt that when he looked forward to going to Brother Rong'er every day, he was much happier than when he went home in the Mid-Autumn Festival every year.
So, will it really be him in the end?
Will he really be the one who will accompany him all his life and grow old together?
