Wangchun Court (Rebirth) verse 78
There was no sound for a long time, and Ming Yue knocked on the door again, "Is the girl okay, can the slave go in?" ”
Hearing this, Song Suqing took a deep breath and spit it out lightly and heavily, her heart calmed down, and she opened the door of the ear room, "Find clothes for me." ”
When the words fell, I saw Ming Yue handing her hand, only to see the gauze she was holding in her hand, the crescent-white gauze shining under the candle flame.
Song Suqing opened his mouth, didn't say anything after thinking for a while, and walked towards the back of the screen, and Mingyue hurriedly followed.
As she changed her clothes and walked out of the room, she paused and took a step back, scanning the landscape in the pavilion.
Seeing this, Ming Yue thought she was looking for the prince, and explained: "The prince is waiting for the girl in the outer courtyard." ”
Song Suqing glanced at her sideways, and after making sure whether what she said was true or false, Ming Yue's white and pure eyes blinked slightly, she exhaled, and stepped out of the ear room.
Ming Yuehu followed her out suspiciously, grooming her.
Song Xuqing's fingertips slowly slid across the corners of her lips, looking at her face in the huge makeup mirror with a stunned expression, the emotions at the bottom of her eyes were agitated, and the love was just like the crimson carved all over the sky, overwhelmingly pressing on her, making her panic.
A familiar voice came from outside, and she looked sideways slightly, pursing her lips and saying nothing.
She didn't know if this was right, and she watched herself sink into the abyss called Pei Muyao, completely unaware of the way forward.
She didn't understand what kind of affection the love between men and women was.
She has been in the East Palace for two years, and she has seen the concubines who are competing for favor sitting in the pavilion sighing and sighing, and she has also seen all the ladies in the harem, even if it is the much-loved Gu Qinning, Pei Yichen often goes to other people's rooms.
How many people promised a lifetime and a couple when they were in love, but in the end they turned into ashes and dissipated between heaven and earth.
Her husband is the future prince and the future son of heaven......
If she can take advantage of the fact that the love is not strong enough to strangle in the cradle, maybe everything will go forward as she planned.
If you can strangle ......
Song Xuqing closed his eyes tightly, and his fingertips wrung the handkerchief helplessly.
I don't know how long it took, but when Mingyue gave her lipstick, she opened her eyes and stared at the person in front of her steadily.
Ming Yue was stunned by the light of her fiery eyes, "Girl." ”
Song Xuqing took a sip of lipstick, took her hand and thoughtfully walked to the round table in the bedroom, and pressed her tightly on the wooden chair.
Ming Yue hurriedly wanted to get up, but the force on her shoulder was heavy, for fear of suddenly getting up and hurting the girl, she could only say: "If the girl asks the slave and maid about something, the slave and maid must know everything, but there is no need to treat each other so solemnly......"
"Mingyue." Song Suqing spoke softly and cut off her words, "Have you ever had someone you like?" ”
Ming Yue paused in her movement, looked at her stupidly, and shook her head: "No." ”
Song Suqing's eyes wrinkled when he heard this.
Now the only thing she can ask here is Ming Yue, if Ming Yue has no one she likes, who else can she ask?
Only then did Ming Yue see that the girl was trapped by love, and a figure flashed in her heart, and she lowered her voice: "Did the girl meet someone she liked?" ”
"Maybe, I don't know." Song Suqing let go of his hand blankly, sat down on Ming Yue's side, and said in a deep heart: "I don't know if I like it, but I'm like a woman who has been hooked by a fox, when he seduces me slightly, I don't like myself, and I will follow his thoughts with all my heart." ”
"Even if he doesn't speak, just looks at me quietly, I will feel flustered, but that panic is not uncomfortable, with a little uncontrollable numbness, it makes my heart tremble, and I follow him step by step into the trap he set, and even sink into it."
"I don't know if it's good or bad, but I feel like it's out of my control, and it's leading me in an unknown direction unhurriedly, I don't know what lies ahead, what kind of situation awaits me ahead, but I want to follow him."
Song Suqing raised his eyes with a smile and muttered to himself: "The road ahead is full of fog, and I actually want to follow him forward." ”
Whether it was in her previous life or in her previous life, she had never experienced anything in love, and no one had taught her what it was like to be happy with someone.
She didn't understand whether the moment her heart fluttered, the moment her fingertips went numb, and the moment her eyes collided, it was a trace of her heartbeat.
The author has something to say:
I went to the hospital in the morning and had a family dinner in the evening, so there is only one more, I hope you understand.
Tomorrow will resume the double watch. Thank you to the little angel who voted for me during 2023-07-08 22:48:21~2023-07-09 17:47:04~
Chapter 68: Confession
(How did you become so cold and ruthless)
The elegant evening breeze blew away the bamboo forest in the forest, and the rustling of small leaves drowned out the footsteps outside the pavilion.
Pei Muyao lowered his eyes and stared at the candle flame not far away, half-leaning on the wall on the side of the redwood cedar door, and some suspicious sentences fluttered in the lightness, intermittently coming out through the cracks in the door, sweeping his eardrums.
The candle flame swaying in the wind suddenly bursts, reflecting in the eyes like a little starlight, and some complex emotions are skipped in the deep and difficult eyes.
Until there was no more noise in the pavilion, he straightened up, knuckles curled up and knocked at the door.
A clear and dull knock on the door awakened Song Xuqing's wandering thoughts, her slender long eyelashes trembled, and she looked back at the closed door.
"It's me."
Hearing Pei Muyao's voice, Song Suqing pursed his lips, exhaled deeply, and responded: "This is coming out." ”
As she got up, she pinched her fingers slightly and lifted them to her lips, shhh
Ming Yue nodded knowingly.
Song Xuqing straightened the slightly scattered hair in the mirror, cleared his throat and pushed the door open, the moment his eyelids lifted, he just hit the eyes with a little smile, and the faint smile swept away the coldness of the weekdays, like the warm sun that suddenly broke through the clouds in the cold winter day.
Under her stunned gaze, Pei Muyao stepped forward, and took her hand casually and unusually familiarly, and broke her fingers inch by inch, and clasped her fingers tightly, and said: "The night market in Shanzhou is famous, you can go and see it after sunset, In addition to sugar cakes, there are also a lot of local foods here, which are flavors that chefs in Beijing can't make." ”
Hearing this, Song Xu glanced at the distance, and the slanted sunset had disappeared into the sky, and it would dissipate into the night in a few quarters of an hour.
She looked back suspiciously: "Aren't we going to have dinner with He Linzhi now?" ”
"Just show your face and go." Pei Muyao took her hand, walked out unhurriedly in the evening breeze, and said, "We are just passing by here, and we don't need to have too much intersection with local officials." ”
Song Suqing suddenly realized 'um', and his voice was as gentle as a gentle breeze ringing in his ears.
"Shanzhou is close to the sea, fresh shrimp, fish and shellfish and other ingredients are particularly fresh, just boil it in water to get a very delicious fish soup, the local potpourri cake is moderately sweet, you should like it."
"You've been to Shanzhou before?" Song Suqing looked up at him, his eyes flashing, "You seem to be very familiar with this place?" ”
"The fourth brother likes to play around, and I used to come with him the year before last." Pei Muyao's fingertips tapped the back of his delicate hand, and raised his chin to signal her to cross the threshold, "But it was winter at that time, and it wasn't as lively as it is today." ”
Shenzhou is close to the sea but is located in the north, and the winter is much more wet and cold than the inland capital.
Many restaurants are built along the riverside, and in the winter, the charcoal fire is much more consumed in the restaurant than in other places.
Song Suqing lifted the curtain of the carriage window lattice, and looked intently at the scene outside, Shanzhou is very prosperous but also has a lot of similarities with Beijing, just like the evening breeze by the river is a little more humid than the river breeze in Beijing.
As it approached the liquor store, the carriage stopped unhurriedly.
Before Song Suqing leaned out of the carriage, she heard a rather soft voice, not to mention a man, even she felt very pleasant to hear.
When the curtain was lifted from the outside, she was about to sit down and push open the window lattice curtain near the restaurant to take a look, but the curtain in front of her was lifted first, and the lively restaurant came into her eyes.
It is said to be a restaurant, but if you want to dig deeper, it looks like a place to drink flower wine.
The woman who spoke just now stood in front of the restaurant, staring at the two of them with shocked eyes, it was the first time she saw a man drinking flower wine and bringing his wife here, what a surprising view.
She looked slightly picky, thoughtfully measuring the couple, the man's expression seemed gentle, but there was a gloom between his eyebrows and eyes that rejected people thousands of miles away, but he supported the woman who got off the carriage, and his clear eyes were turning around to look around, and he could even feel her eagerness to try when he looked closely.
The corners of the woman's mouth twitched.
Song Xuqing got out of the carriage, his eyes rose slightly, and landed on the huge door plaque above the restaurant.
The Moon Pavilion.
The woman waiting in front of the door saw the two coming, greeted them as if she had just woken up from a dream, and asked with a little scrutiny, "Are you two outsiders?" ”
As she approached, Qi An stepped forward and raised his hand to stop her progress.
Lowering her eyes and brushing over the sword handle held by the guard in her hand, the woman took a deep breath, took a step back quietly, and said, "I don't know if the two of you have an agreement......
"Childe!"
The hurried words cut off the woman's words.
The woman looked back and saw the guards hurrying over, and her respectful appearance made her heart feel slightly cold.
Pei Muyao glanced lukewarmly at the guards who were walking quickly, and said with a faint 'um' expression, motioning for him to lead the way.
The guard hurriedly turned sideways, and when he lowered his eyes, he glanced at the princess on the side, and his eyelids jumped fiercely, knowing that something was wrong.
There are many liquor shops in Beijing that drink flower wine, but Rao is active as Song Xuqing has never stepped into these 'flower willow land', it is the first time to come here, but I feel new in my heart, and from time to time I glance sideways at the men and women who are drinking with their arms folded.
The reserved wing room is located on the highest floor, where there is only one private room.
The guards guarding the staircase were stunned when they looked at Song Suqing's eyes full of curiosity, and they didn't come back to their senses for a long time, until someone cleared their throats, and the leader hurriedly said: "Lord, princess, please inside." ”
Song Suqing, who was following behind, smiled, raised his fingertips and poked Pei Muyao's tight and powerful arm, and whispered: "People are scared when they see me, who will bring the girl when they go out to eat." ”
She said this, her eyes full of cunning.
Pei Muyao lowered his eyes and stared at her for a while, raised his lips and smiled, and glanced at the door of the wing room not far away, "Compared to them, I'm curious about what He Linzhi thinks." ”
Knowing that he came with Song Xuqing, he opened his mouth and invited him to come to Jiangyue Pavilion, and he didn't know which stupid staff member gave He Lin the idea, He Linzhi's reaction was also very strange, he would take it into account and really invite him to come to drink flower wine, and there was even a little ambiguity in his words.
When Song Suqing heard this, he hooked his lips and smiled after thinking about it: "I should be scared to death by you." ”
Between the words, the guards waiting outside the door knocked on the door with stunned eyes, and He Linzhi's voice came from inside.
When the door was pushed open, He Linzhi, who was full of spring breeze, was stunned in place the moment he saw Song Suqing, opened his mouth but couldn't say a word, and looked at her stupidly.
"Lord He, I've been waiting for a long time." Pei Muyao's eyes swept over the people in the wing room with a smile, and when he saw Song Huai'an, his eyebrows were slightly raised, "This is a coincidence, the second brother is also here." ”
Hearing this, Song Suqing withdrew his eyes and looked at Song Huai'an standing in him with a heavy mind.
If Song Huai'an was here, then it could only be said that today's flower and wine banquet was his proposal, otherwise He Linzhi would most likely not choose here, Song Suqing did not miss He Linzhi's razor-sharp eyes swept towards him when he lowered his eyes, and he affirmed the thoughts in her heart.
She sneered in her heart, but her face was not obvious, and a smile lit up in her eyes and she said: "Second brother, why don't you tell Lord He in advance, the prince has lived in Nanjian Temple for many years, and he is a good Buddha in his heart, and he has never stepped into the land of smoke and willows." ”
Song Huai'an's eyes were complicated and difficult to understand, he glanced at Pei Muyao, who had a cold face, and said, "It's my problem, I forgot to remind Lord He." ”
"That's right." Song Suqing bowed his head pretendedly, and knew to He Lin: "I'm really sorry to disturb Lord He's Yaxing uninvited." ”
"The princess has been distraught." He Linzhi hurriedly said, waved his hand and ordered the girls to disperse, and said: "It's the dereliction of duty of the lower officials, thinking that they won't disturb your rest, and they also specially ordered the lady and the little girl to come to the door tomorrow to ask for peace." ”
Song Xu listened quietly, and his intention was not to be too entangled with He Linzhi, so he bowed his head to indicate that he understood.
Pei Muyao, who was standing beside her, only said a word after entering the door, and then never spoke again, even after sitting down, he didn't say much, so frightened that He Linzhi wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead again and again.
At this time, there was a burst of glamour in the hall of the Moon Pavilion, followed by the crisp sound of bells colliding and wafting in.
Song Suqing faintly became a little interested, pinched Pei Muyao's knuckles under the table with his fingertips, made a gesture to go out, and walked out with Mingyue.
