Chapter 44: He's been trapped all his life

Xie Shuangge's little sorrow immediately disappeared, and he even felt a little itchy in his teeth.

Uncle, can you not open a pot and mention a pot?

The Queen Mother sat up straighter, leaned on the cushion and frowned, "Speaking of whichβ€”"

She paused, raised her eyes and looked at Chu Wuxian, who looked like a wooden stake behind her, "Didn't you combine the eight characters of Wuxian and Jianing last time, how about it?" ”

The emperor also turned his head and glanced at Chu Wuxian, and quipped: "It's a match, the master said that it was a match made in heaven, and it was destined for a good fate." ”

The Queen Mother was surprised: "Really? ”

"The son does not dare to deceive the queen mother," the emperor smiled and poured tea for the queen mother, "it is true." ”

The Queen Mother looked at Chu Wuxian with emotion, "Good boy, do you really like Jianing?" ”

Chu Wuxian stepped forward and knelt down and said, "If Weichen is not sincere, he will never dare to speak at will. ”

The Queen Mother nodded: "The mourning family thinks too, after all, this marriage still depends on Jianing's meaning, if it doesn't work out, you still suffer a loss." ”

Chu Wuxian bowed his head, and his posture was very respectful and obedient.

Xie Shuangge: "......"

She shook her hand frantically: "Imperial grandmother, don't be deceived by him!" This is a wolf in sheep's clothing, what does he suffer? He's going to eat me! ”

Sensing the slight vibration of the jade pendant, Chu Wuxian pursed his lips and forced a smile.

I'm afraid that Jade Perry is very unconvinced, scolding himself, right?

Thinking of this, Chu Wuxi's thoughts drifted back to last night uncontrollably, the fiery entanglement, the soft touch, and the delicate ankle......

"No hate, why are your ears red?"

The Emperor sat on the other side and let out a rare call.

Chu Wuxi: "......"

The Queen Mother stroked her palms and laughed, her mood was much better, she glared at the emperor, "Why are you so puzzled?" When young people are first in love, they are most likely to be shy, even if you see it, you have to say it, where does he put his cheek? ”

When the words fell, Chu Wuxian's face turned red.

The emperor hurriedly said: "What the queen mother taught me is that it is my son who is confused. ”

After speaking, the mother and son laughed together, "Okay, okay, get up, look at you like this, you know that you are sincere to Jianing." "The more the Queen Mother looks at Chu Wuxi, the more satisfied she becomes.

Xie Shuangge couldn't stand up with a smile in the jade pendant, and gloated: "Chu Wuxian, you also have today?" Hahaha - yes! ”

When Chu Wuxian got up, he pinched the jade pendant without a trace, and Xie Shuangge was pressed to the ground again.

The laughter came to an abrupt end.

Xie Shuangge: "......"

You wait for me!

Sensing that the jade pendant was quiet, the corners of Chu Wuxian's lips rose restrainedly.

"This is the birthday gift that the mourning family prepared for Jianing before, I wanted to give it to her personally, but I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, alas...... You help the mourning family run and send it to her, the mourning family knows that you young people can't hold it back, so you should also go to see her. ”

The Queen Mother took out a rosewood box from the drawer of the low table, and Chu Wuxian took it, and it was heavy and weighty.

I can't help but wonder what will be in this.

The emperor was also curious: "What did the queen mother prepare?" ”

"It's not a rare thing, it's the dowry at the bottom of the box in the early years of the mourning family, accompanying the mourning family from the crown princess all the way to the queen mother, and then the mourning family didn't have the heart to love beauty, so they didn't wear it again, thinking about passing it on to Jianing."

The Queen Mother opened the lid, and there was a pair of blood jade bracelets inside, with a rich color and excellent water head, and the flowing gold threads were faintly visible against the light, which was extremely amazing.

Xie Shuangge recognized it at a glance, this was the Queen Mother's favorite pair of bracelets, every time she saw the Queen Mother, she wore it, and now she was going to give it to herself?

"Imperial Grandmother ......"

She called out movingly, the Queen Mother put the lid back on, and touched it nostalgically, "After you send it, put it next to Jianing's pillow, she liked this when she was a child, maybe she will wake up when she is happy." ”

Chu Wuxian's eyes softened, "Yes." ”

The Queen Mother.

The emperor sighed: "My son doesn't have any good things, and the rare playthings in the treasury are almost given, but some time ago, the envoys sent by the Zhou State visited Proton in Jindu Jindu, and sent a few precious Huanyue yarns, all of which were given to Jianing, and when she woke up, she could make a few new clothes." ”

Chu Wuxian's heart moved slightly, Huanyue yarn is a specialty of the Zhou Kingdom, Dayan lacks raw materials and can't make it, so it was sold at a sky-high price.

A horse of Huanyue yarn is a thousand taels of gold, and the emperor is also a big deal.

The emperor said a few more words to the queen mother, and then got up to leave, Chu Wuxian took the things and prepared to leave the palace, but he didn't expect to meet Wei Jiuyuan at the gate of the palace.

Wei Jiuyuan stood on the road out of the palace, and the entourage behind him held a long box.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Wei Jiuyuan turned around and smiled slightly when he saw Chu Wuxi: "Lord Chu, are you going to the Rongding Eldest Princess's Mansion?" ”

Chu Wuxian suddenly understood that he was waiting for the rabbit.

"Wechen has seen His Royal Highness."

"No courtesy, this palace is waiting for adults here, mainly because I want adults to help deliver something."

Wei Jiuyuan clapped his hands as he spoke, and his entourage stepped forward and picked up the box with both hands, Wei Jiuyuan took it and opened it in front of Chu Wuxian, "Today is Jianing's birthday, and this palace is an elder brother, so I have nothing to give, so I made a painting with my own hands to relieve her boredom." ”

Xie Shuangge was stunned: "Painting? What paintings? ”

She doesn't like it.

When she was a child, the master taught everyone to read and write, and she was not interested in poetry, but she was most active when she was learning to ride and shoot.

Growing up together, will the second cousin not know this?

Xie Shuangge squinted suspiciously.

Chu Wuxian was also puzzled, he stared at Wei Jiuyuan's hand, and said in a deep voice: "The things sent to the princess's mansion must be checked before making a decision, can Your Highness show the picture scroll for Weichen to see?" ”

Wei Jiuyuan smiled good-naturedly: "This is natural. ”

He opened the lid and took out the scroll, untied the string, and slowly unfolded the painting, the painting was not too long, it stood up half a person high, and the thing painted on it was also simple, it was Xie Shuangge.

The girl in the red dress sat on the swing, surrounded by flowers, butterflies and warblers, but they all became a foil under her smile.

The beauty is round and jade, her skin is as white as a thin frost under the moon, her eyes are bright and her teeth are bright, and she is playful and cute with a little red mole on her earlobe.

I don't know if she heard someone call her, she looked back slightly, and her eyes seemed to fall on Chu Wuxian's body as if through the picture scroll.

Chu Wuxian's breath was suffocated, his eyes fixed on the painting, and his heart beat uncontrollably.

At this moment, he was in a trance and returned to that spring day, he led the horse and walked in the grass, the sky was very blue and high, the clouds were very white and light, but the wind was extremely fierce.

He had just seen his father, he was depressed, and he wanted to come to the horse to release it, but suddenly he saw a touch of pomegranate red from far and near, bringing a burst of crisp laughter.

He raised his eyes to look, but was filled with the oncoming garland, and his sleeves were filled with fragrance.

The girl on the horse grabbed the reins, "Phew-", her hair was slightly messy, and she smiled and stretched out her hand to him, her amber eyes were shining, like stars scattered on the surface of the lake, "Did you hit you?" Excuse me. ”

At that moment, Chu Wuxian's heart was so instantaneous, crazy and restless, and his limbs and bones were slightly painful when he jumped, but with a little pleasure.

The clouds broke through the fog, the wind was clear, and all the dust was forgotten by him.

At that time, he knew that in this life, he was trapped by that garland.
