Chapter 1073: Xiao Ling'er (5)
I don't know what Daddy meant by that, but I nodded unconditionally. As long as Her Majesty the Empress and Brother Yao want me to be a cow or a horse.
Daddy wants to teach me all the skills of medicine, so I'll learn it. What I have learned is all-encompassing, as long as it is useful to the court and the prince's brother in the future, why don't I learn?
Once a month, I would go out of the palace and go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion for two days to reunite with my father.
In those two days, my father taught me everything I need to do to be a prime minister. The official system of the imperial court, the promotion and demotion system, the division of labor, the duties of the prime minister, the dark side of officialdom, etc., are all taught. I don't know why my dad did this, but apparently he raised me like a son.
Between the words, my father kept mentioning the words "time is running out", which made me honestly afraid, for fear that I would accidentally miss something. I studied without sleep or food, and at the same time, in life, I tried my best to be attached to my father and try my best to behave childishly in front of my father. If I can't be independent, then my father will definitely not be willing to leave me, and no longer feel any ominous remarks that "time is running out".
I don't like to hear these four words at all, as if my father is about to leave me and go after my mother. No! I don't want to let my dad go so early, I have to hold him tight, even if I stumble him with my studies.
Therefore, when I learned martial arts formations from my uncle, I learned very quickly; And when I was studying economics, history, and politics with my father, I seemed to be forgetting to sleep and eating, but my comprehension was slow, as if I couldn't fit it into my brain.
Daddy may have understood my carefulness, and always touched my little head with a smile when I pretended to be stupid and didn't understand, without reproach.
Sometimes, when I returned to the palace from the Prime Minister's Mansion dejectedly, I could see the Prince's brother waiting for me on the castle tower from a distance. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on his tall figure, shining with golden warmth, and in an instant I saw the hope of the future, and I was in a happy mood.
As soon as I lifted the curtain, I jumped out of the carriage at a rapid pace, turned back and waved goodbye to the servants who saw me off, and ran towards the palace. And the prince's brother will also rush down from the castle tower at the same time, and then we meet at the bottom of the stone steps, he holds my hand tightly, and walks towards the Qianyun Palace, and the sunset casts our shadows high and low for a long time.
I asked, "Brother Prince, why did you come to pick me up in person?" ”
He replied, "Because I will stand here so that you can see that there are people in the palace waiting for your return!" ”
I laughed, "You're so nice!" ”
He laughed: "No! It's because you're so nice! ”
This conversation really makes me drunk!
Isn't this kind of waiting, this kind of dialogue, ambiguous enough? As I grew older, I reminisced about these conversations and kept guessing about the mind of the prince's brother. But the more I guessed, the more I couldn't be sure.
Because in the long formative years that followed, such ambiguous/ambiguous conversations kept happening.
"Brother Prince, what if my father locks me in the Prime Minister's Mansion and doesn't let me live in the palace again?"
"I'll do it. I'll just let my mother make a holy decree. ”
"Will you be reluctant to me, will you miss me?"
"Absolutely!"
"Then if I get married, will you miss me too?"
"Yes! Of course! ”
……
I burst into tears.
I finally understood that such an ambiguous/ambiguous conversation really doesn't mean anything! In his eyes, it is normal for me to get married, and he is not anxious, what does this mean? When I think about it, I already have a girlish mentality, and I've grown up......
