Chapter 17: The Past of Whiteness
"Senior sister, there is no other room here, let's go out first, it's not safe here after all." Pei Jingqi saw that Su Mo was pondering, and did not continue the original topic, but this place was weird, and he had to leave immediately.
"Hmm," Su Mo nodded, "Huh?" What's going on? ”
"What's wrong, senior sister?" Pei Jingqi immediately looked at her nervously.
"My hand."
Following Su Mo's words, Pei Jingqi looked at her hand.
"My hand is stuck and I can't take it off?"
"How so?" Pei Jingqi held Su Mo's hand with one hand and the wooden card in her hand with the other, trying to separate the two, but to no avail, her own hand was also glued.
"What should I do?" Su Mo asked Pei Jingqi, "It's too strange to go out like this, even if the people in the palace are like stupid people, but this will be noticed at a glance, right?" ”
Before Pei Jingqi could answer, they saw the dazzling golden light emitted by the wooden card, and the two of them were dazzled, so they had to block their vision with their other hand. They vaguely felt that the light was getting stronger and stronger, and the area was so large that it completely enveloped the two of them.
Their eyes were invisible, but they could clearly hear a woman talking to herself, Su Mo tried to talk to the other party, but just like the time she was attacked by Bai Yu, she couldn't make any sound.
The woman's mental state is afraid that it is not ideal, the gods are chattering, talking to themselves, and they don't care whether Su Mo wants to listen to it or not, they take care of themselves.
Su Mo couldn't move, like fish on a chopping board, so they could only wait and see what happened and listen to what the woman said.
She said: "Bai Yu and I are a pair of cousins, although they are close relatives, the situation at home is two states. ”
Bai Yu's cousin? Isn't it white?
"My mother was a very special woman, she would always come up with strange ideas, and she always said that she was a modern person, very different from other women in the imperial city."
Bai Jie's tone was full of pride, Su Mo could imagine the other party's expression, but her mood changed too quickly, joy and sentimentality, it really only took a moment.
"It's a pity that she died too early and too suddenly, I miss her so much, if she could live a little longer and teach me more, I might have a different ending."
Su Mo wanted to persuade her that people can't be resurrected after death, don't dwell on the past, and look forward, but she still can't speak, and her eyes are blurry and can see.
The light and shadow were dappled, and Su Mo only saw her wearing goose-yellow clothes, her body was thin, and she was pacing back and forth in the dim cave.
She didn't notice the changes in Su Mo and them, still with rich expressions, and their movements exaggerated to describe their past: "My father is single-minded, maybe it's because my mother is well-trained."
There is never room for a second person between them, and even I seem to be superfluous many times.
They are my role models, and I want to have the same love as theirs, and I have been looking for, or maybe I have had. ”
The figure of the maiden is light and full of activity, bouncing and jumping like a cute bird.
In a trance, Su Mo felt that she could see the other party's face clearly, and the woman seemed to pout slightly at this time, coquettishly: "Hey, it's a pity that my cousin's family situation and I are two different looks." ”
"Her tutoring is too strict, she has been taught to follow three virtues and four virtues since she was a child, and she has been disciplined like a bald scoop, except for being able to hold water, she has nothing.
When I first met her, I really felt that she was so pitiful, but she was also so likable, she was so obedient, so kind, so simple. ”
"When I was a teenager, my father was sent by the emperor to guard the border outside the Saiwai, and he was afraid that I would suffer with him, so he fostered me in my uncle's house, that is, my cousin Bai Yu's house.
Now that I think about it, it was such a happy time.
Although my uncle married many women, and Bai Yu's cousin had many brothers and sisters, most of them were concubines. She only had one brother-in-law, and I envied her for a while.
It's kind of funny to think about it now, so what's there to envy?
There are a lot of people who are quite lively, too lively, and there are too many people who care, and in the end they become empty and cumbersome, and they can't do anything.
At that time, our grandmother was still alive, probably Aiwu and Wubar. My father was her favorite child, so she always treated me better than the sister next to me.
In the big mansion, there will always be some open and secret battles, but at that time, I was protected by my grandmother, and no one could snub me.
My brothers and sisters are very enthusiastic about me, always pulling me to talk about common things, thinking I am a cheater?
It's really not long-eyed, they didn't speak, I already knew what they were doing, there were words hidden in the words, there were needles hidden in the cotton, they wanted to use me as a gunman, dreaming!
Cousin Bai Yu is different, compared to those who have flowery intestines, she is more like a piece of wood, pedantic but unexpectedly pleasing to me.
I really like to listen to the somewhat sluggish cousin Bai Yu read some sour poems. Hey, what kind of fetish, hey. ”
In the plot of the original novel, Bai Yu was killed by Bai Jie, but in the setting of the system, Bai Jie felt that he had a good relationship with Bai Yu.
Then why did Bai Yu still die? has also become a wronged soul to seek justice from Su Mo?
Bai Jie's confession is far from over, everything has to be told in detail.
"Our family is considered a prominent family in Beijing, so we often have the privilege of attending royal gatherings. Maybe it's fate, in a hunting outing, I had a relationship with the little emperor Li Qianjing.
Who believes in love at first sight?
He once told me that he fell in love with me at first sight.
Therefore, when choosing a concubine, he preferred me and was ready to make me the queen.
Supreme glory, but also endless sorrow.
Why does the rise and fall of the family have to be on the shoulders of my sister and me?
Because we are the heirs of the wang family, my sister and I are inevitably used as bargaining chips in the power struggle.
When I appeared before the Emperor again, it was in the form of a portrait, like a mass of women, for him to choose from.
What love or not, it's all nonsense, it's more about managing my emotions, who to choose is for Li Qianjing, it doesn't matter at all.
Feeling that I met my eyes, he glanced at me in a hurry, and settled on me.
But in fact, it doesn't matter who he chooses, he was too young at that time, what real power could he have?
The choice is never in the hands of waste, and I have pitied him.
Now I feel even more pity for myself and my sister.
My cousin and I belong to the same clan, but for my uncle, who is an important minister, I should still feel that Cousin Bai Yu, who is a daughter, is more suitable to be the queen, so I played some tricks to let my cousin take my place.
Bai Fu did this completely on the bright side, not giving face to the little emperor, how could Li Qianjing not hold a grudge?
After getting real power, how can it not be severely punished?
But my uncle at that time was even more conceited than me. No one can complain about getting to that point. ”
"My sister replaced me as the queen, which doesn't mean that I don't have to enter the palace. No matter how wasteful, he is also an emperor.
Those who have been chosen by the emperor can only marry him.
In this way, I married our mutual husband a day before my cousin, and it became a good story.
A good story?
Bah! Why should a man with three wives and four concubines, and it can still be a good story if he marries two sisters! ”
Bai Jie looked a little lonely, depressed, listless, she insisted with a tone that was half comforting to herself, half sarcastic.
"It's too late to think about this now, I should have rebelled at that time, I shouldn't have married the same person as my sister, but whatever I say, the facts can't be changed."
"Moreover, at that time, I accepted my fate shortly after marriage.
No!
Hehe, when I knew that he was going to marry me, I had already gotten carried away and completely forgot my mother's advice to me! ”
Bai Jie was silent for a short time, the surroundings were quiet and terrifying, and the seeping sentimentality leaked out of nowhere, freezing to the creepy.
"I feel that since I am going to marry him, I have to treat him wholeheartedly, he also has me in his heart, and I also ask her to treat me wholeheartedly, what's wrong?"
"I'm doing normal things, but I'm always being thought of as crazy, saying that I'm delusional, and that I'm pretentious!
Scold!
I was originally the pride of the sky, who am I!
My mother, the greatest talent in the world, the most special existence! I'm her daughter and I'm certainly unusual!
Am I sick just because I think differently than everyone else? I'm not crazy!
Tell me! I'm not! ”
Bai Jie suddenly rushed towards Su Mo, his hands restrained her shoulders, shaking, shaking, wailing, but Su Mo still couldn't see clearly and couldn't speak.
She gradually calmed down, and sat down on the ground, her voice so small that she could only understand it if she listened attentively: "For a long time, I felt that he and I were in love, and I had a honey-blended life.
During that time, I was almost a pet, he took me with him in everything, he thought about me in everything, and the illusory happiness was really confused for a long time.
It's to the point that even when I think about it now, I can't help but hook the corners of my mouth. ”
"I really like Cousin Bai Yu, but she is always sandwiched between me and my husband, I don't know if you understand this diaphragm?
I hope that Li Qianjing can be kind to his cousin, and I hope that they can keep their distance.
I often subconsciously instigated my husband to stay away from her.
But I always feel guilty about this, so I take the initiative to get closer to her, care about her and take care of her.
I tried in vain to compensate her with that. For a short time, it was peaceful. ”
"But people on the outside are always watching.
The concubine and queen are out of the same family, which means that a clan has the highest privilege except for the royal family, which makes other families unable to beat it.
No one could bear to have two knives hanging over their heads. And for the royal family, it is absolutely unbearable to have an existence that can threaten them.
Among them, there is Li Qianjing's acquiescence, and the intrigue of the major families, anyway, the palace will soon be stuffed with women from various forces and gangs.
A beautiful woman with a beautiful appearance and stunning talent has become the smallest microcosm of a family that rings and eats.
In order to weaken and balance the power of the major families to the greatest extent, Li Qianjing reduced his exclusive favor to me and became evenly wet.
But wolves have more meat and less meat, and there are always people who can't eat enough, and even starve to death.
Between my sister and me, for the family, there was gradually the ultimate proposition that we could only choose one of the two, and she and I were forced to stand on opposite sides, and we had to fight each other with the most hideous faces. ”
