42 Chapter 42

Songyuan is like a paradise, far away from the prosperity and chaos of the capital, and the time of poetry is accompanied by poetry every day, which will make some people have a sense of trance.

The theme of the flower folding will rotate daily, the first day of peony, the second day of gardenia, the third day of spring peach, until the sixth day, Sheng Chengxing set the theme of peony.

Lu Jiaxi took the sign to the courtyard early in the morning, and Rong Tang laughed sarcastically when he heard the news.

Su Huaijing peeled off a bowl of yellow and round loquat on the side, poked it with a small fork, and handed it to Rong Tang: "Eat one?" ”

Rong Tang hesitated for a second, turned his head, took a bite of the loquat, and suddenly bulged out a small bag, Su Huaijing looked very eager to poke it, but he couldn't help it, and asked Lu Jiaxi: "Why today?" ”

Lu Jiaxi replied with two words: "Finale." ”

Ke Hongxue Yuan was on the side and pouted Mu Jingxu to play backgammon with him, when he heard this, his hand stopped, he couldn't close his eyes with a smile, and then he took it back one by one, and ate Mu Jingxu's white son very slowly and suggestively, and said: "Sheng Chengxing's courage, should it be said that Marshal Xia and Concubine Hui are in the same line?" ”

The finale is the usage of opera, Rong Tang looks at it from the perspective of modern people, the opera teacher is an old opera artist, promoting traditional culture, and it is very worthy of respect.

But in the context of the feudal era of Dayu, the singing drama is called a drama, and compared with the lady in the palace - even the queen of the world, if Sheng Chengxing is not a prince, how many heads he has is not enough for him to cut off.

Ke Hongxue said: "On an occasion like the Flower Folding Club, the people who go to the meeting are either students who have not left the school, or civil officials who are vassals and elegant, or the children of official families who have no brains and only know how to drink and have fun. In this way, the peony on the first day became the brick that led to the jade, not only did he not respect him, but it was precisely because of respect that he even took out his own mother to serve as a foil for the queen. ”

Ke Hongxue smiled and fell, not knowing whether to remind or watch the play, glanced at Rong Tang, and said: "It's true that someone understands the intrigue and wants to join him, but it's hard to guarantee that he won't fall into his hands." Lord Shizi, this sullen queen has to eat it even if she doesn't eat it. ”

Rong Tang's face was slightly gloomy, he knew this, so he felt unhappy.

He spit out the loquat nucleus in his mouth and asked, "How old is Sheng Chengxing this year?" ”

At a young age, a bad stomach! Among the sons of Emperor Renshou, which one is good?

Even if Su Huaijing doesn't take revenge and seize the throne, this Dayu throne will be passed on to the sons of Emperor Renshou, and how many generations can it be passed on?

Rong Tang once again felt that the setting of the author's worldview was very problematic.

Su Huaijing replied: "The prince left the palace at the age of 16, and the third highness is 17 years old this year. He paused, chuckled and added, "Same age as me." ”

Ke Hongxueyuan smiled and played chess, and when he heard the title of 'Third Highness', the corners of his lips pressed silently, and he raised his eyes to look at Mu Jingxu, who was sitting opposite him.

The latter was quite calm and calm, not moving in all directions, and he didn't even shake his eyes.

Ke Hongxue sighed in her heart, shook her head a little desolately, dropped a sunspot, and looked at Mu Jingxu's Bai Zilian

line-forming,

He came back and devoured his chess.

Rong Tang turned his head,

Seeing the smile on Su Huaijing's lips, as if everything was not lingering, he knew that he had some plans for this matter and was no longer entangled.

He has been very lazy recently, and he has become more and more trusting of Su Huaijing, if Su Huaijing can help him with some things that use his brain, Rong Tang will directly give up thinking and don't want to bother.

It just so happened that Lu Jiaxi tentatively made an invitation: "Do you want to go to Lanyue Pavilion?" The Ziyu class rehearsed a new play, saying that it was the first time to start today, and it was specially dedicated to His Royal Highness the Third Prince. ”

When the words landed, Ke Hongxue, who should have been the most energetic, didn't move, playing backgammon that a three-year-old child can play, and didn't raise his eyelids: "It's hot, I'm too lazy to move, you guys go, just come back and tell me what you played." ”

Rong Tang was slightly surprised, he had the impression that Ke Hongxue was the most lively character, and there were occasional opera troupes from other places in Beijing, even if he didn't eat, he had to drag three or two friends to listen to the play.

The first choice is naturally Mu Jingxu, but if he can't invite a senior brother, he will come to Ningxuan Wangfu to find Rong Tang, Rong Tang himself can't remember how many pear orchards he visited with him, and heard a few spring and autumn seasons.

Now that the new drama is staged, Ke Tanhua can not bear it?

Rong Tang was surprised, but before leaving, he saw Ke Hongxue turn his head, his eyes were a little inquiring, he looked at Su Huaijing twice, and suddenly asked: "Su Gongzi is seventeen this year?" What is your birthday? ”

Rong Tang's footsteps stopped, turned his head and looked at the villain steadily, and suddenly realized one thing:

He doesn't know cub birthdays!

can't write about the villain's birthday, Rong Tang and Su Huaijing have intersected in the first two lives, but neither of them will pull each other to participate in the birthday banquet, it is Ke Hongxue's question, Rong Tang suddenly realized that he never knew his daughter-in-law's birthday!

This is actually very unreasonable, marrying a relative and asking for a name must be attached to the eight characters of the birthday of the two, and the things that can be remembered at a glance are remembered, but the time line of Rong Tang during that time is very simple: go to Yong'an Lane to find cubs, go to the suburbs to find Shen Feiyi, accompany Wang Xiuyu to the temple, and try to get more dowry gifts for Su Huaijing......

He really didn't think to get up to take a look at the villain's birthday.

Xu is eyes were too hot, or maybe Su Huaijing would have subconsciously paid attention to Rong Tang's state, seeing his demeanor, he was stunned for a second, and asked with a smile: "Tang Tang doesn't know my birthday?" ”

Rong Tang was a little weak-hearted, and Su Huaijing said softly: "It's so sad......"

Rong Tang immediately apologized: "I'm sorry ......"

He almost didn't dare to look at Su Huaijing, but the latter laughed clearly, answered Ke Hongxue's words, looked at Rong Tang, and said, "I am spring's birthday, the eighth day of the first month, does Tang Tang remember?" ”

"Click-" There was a soft sound, and a crashing sound came from the chessboard.

Rong Tang didn't have time to return to Huaijing's words, when he heard the voice, he subconsciously looked over, and saw Ke Hongxue leaning over and picking up a white piece from the chessboard, and restored the chess game disrupted by the white piece one by one, and finally put the chess pieces into Mu Jingxu's chess cup, and joked with a smile: "I'll just say don't worry about those worries when you come out and play, you will deal with the aftermath for others and handle official affairs for a while, senior brother, you can't bear it even if you are an iron man." ”

He suggested softly, "Wait, do you want to go and rest for a while?" ”

Rong Tang looked at Mu Jingxu, I don't know if it was an illusion, but he saw a trace of ...... on Mu Shaoqing's perennial frost-like cheeks Barely what can be called

A dazed expression?

Rong Tang is trying to take a closer look,

saw that Mu Jingxu had already packed up his emotions,

He glanced at Su Huaijing lightly, then withdrew it, played chess again, and said 'um' in a very soft voice, and answered Ke Hongxue's suggestion.

Rong Tang felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

Since the rainstorm in the past two days, Mu Jingxu and Ke Hongxue have obviously been much more relaxed, and they rarely mention Sheng Chengli in front of them, intentionally or unintentionally, this is the first time in Rong Tang's life that he has seen some uncontrollable emotions on Mu Jingxu's face.

And the cause......

He thought about it, it seemed to be because of Su Huaijing's birthday?

There was a thread pulling in his mind, and Rong Tang instinctively sensed something strange,

I wanted to ask carefully, but I saw Su Huaijing narrowing his eyes, looked at Ke Hongxue, and asked, "Why did Young Master Ke suddenly remember to ask about my birthday?" ”

Ke Hongxue wore a pink coat today, and the fan was not made of jade, but replaced with a paper fan painted with gold, and the monstrous wealth was both elegant and tacky, and it was very harmonious.

He said idly: "That's the end of the conversation, casually asked, I just suddenly remembered that I have a younger brother, who should be seventeen years old this year, so I want to be older than one of you two." ”

Upstairs, the breeze and the morning sun passed, the clouds were fluttering, Ke Hongxue and Su Huaijing sat and stopped, both smiling, Su Huaijing asked, "What is the result?" ”

Young Master Ke's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Su Huaijing, unable to tell whether those fox-like eyes were thinking about someone or guessing through Shunteng, he opened his lips and laughed slowly: "The same year, the same month, the same day." ”

Rong Tang's heart tightened, his brows furrowed slightly, and he stood next to Su Huaijing as soon as he moved, beware of Ke Hongxue who was going to ask what dangerous words he would say later.

But seeing Ke Hongxue's eyes flowing, he shook off the fan, and said very freely: "I should have asked you again when and when you were born, but my younger brother...... If you ask too much, I'm afraid of arousing sadness, so I simply don't ask. ”

Su Huaijing looked at him for a moment, and said slowly: "The festival mourns and changes." ”

Ke Hongxue: "It happened many years ago, and if it doesn't change, it will change a long time ago." He raised his hand and dropped a son, and once again connected to eat Mu Jingxu's son, reminding Rong Tang: "The drama of Lanyue Pavilion is not waiting for anyone, if the prince wants to watch it, he needs to be as soon as possible." ”

The flowing clouds gathered and dispersed, and when the three of them left from the moon gate of the small courtyard, Ke Hongxue retracted his gaze and said seemingly casually: "Senior brother has nothing to ask me?" ”

Mu Jingxu looked at him: "What do you ask?" ”

Ke Hongxue: "For example, my family's three generations of single inheritance, where did I get my younger brother?" ”

Mu Jingxu pursed his lips and said nothing, but the cold snow that has been condensed in his eyes all year round has faint signs of cracking.

Ke Hongxue looked at it with satisfaction for a while and smiled: "You are still funny like this, you can't laugh, you can't get angry, you can't cry or make trouble, my grandfather is not as old-fashioned as you, sometimes I wonder if you are a snowman." ”

Mu Jingxu didn't speak, Ke Hongxue smiled again: "Someone once called me a snowman, does the senior brother know who it is?" ”

Mu Jingxu looked at his eyes, was silent for a long time, and spoke: "Ke Hanying, what do you want to say?" ”

Ke Hongxue felt happy, and her eyebrows became more and more crooked.

Ordinary people will call the word when they express their cordiality, and when they come to his senior brother, they call when they are angry, when they are angry, and when they want to distance themselves

Ke Hongxue smiled: "I'm just a little curious. ”

He played with a chess piece and didn't fall for a long time: "Jingzhong has been quiet for so many years, but these days, the son of General Zuo Xiaowei has been executed, and the rare white tiger is dedicated to His Majesty the Emperor as an auspicious rui, and even an additional Shu Dao Pavilion has been opened next door to Fengyue Tower, and even my junior who has always been naΓ―ve and immature can have the courage to sue the officialβ€”β€”"

He paused, as if he had just remembered: "Ah yes, I also heard that on the night Ding Laibao was executed, the second prince took someone to catch someone in advance and sent it to Dali Temple?" Brother, who have you seen? ”

Songyuan is full of people, some people go to banquets, some people watch plays, some people recuperate, and some people calculate......

And the two of them sat in the attic, and the light of the day was wrong, and the next game of chess could be understood by a child.

Mu Jingxu didn't, so Ke Hongxue asked and answered: "I haven't seen it, but I heard that the person's name is 'Chen Fei'." ”

Mu Shaoqing didn't finally speak up until this time: "It's a very common name." ”

Ke Hongxue nodded: "It's really common-" He raised his eyes and added: "But it's also easy to disguise." ”

He meant: "It's a pity that I didn't see the looks, whether they resemble the old people." ”

Mu Jingxu's hand clenched tightly.

Ke Hongxue said one by one: "More than three months ago, the Holy Majesty ordered Li Changfu to return to Beijing to serve as a squire in the military department; Two months ago, Mr. Li brought his children to the capital to take up his post lightly...... What's the coincidence? It didn't take long after that for our reckless Second Highness to begin to make frequent political achievements; Our nine-year-old fool suddenly married a male wife. ”

The black chess pieces were turning at the fingertips, and Ke Hongxue smiled casually: "There is one more coincidental thing, senior brother, you must be too lazy to guess, I will say it directly." ”

He said with a smile: "Before coming to Songyuan, I found someone to check, and they told me that after Li Changfu took office, the female dependents and elders of the family took the official road and took the carriage all the way from Shu to the capital, but they encountered a group of mountain bandits at the junction of Shu and Qin, who did not hurt people and intercepted things. ”

Mu Jingxu's face moved slightly, and he asked in a dumb voice, "What do you want to say?" ”

Ke Hongxue shook her head: "I don't want to say anything, I just think it's funny." ”

"Senior brother, you say, when all the coincidences in this world are stripped away and all gathered in one person, can they still be considered coincidences?"

Ke Hongxue dropped the chess piece that he had been playing with on the chessboard, happily watched the black spots connected into a caterpillar-like black line, did not eat the pieces again, nor did he take the chess, but supported his chin with one hand, and said with a smile: "And this person told me that he was born on the eighth day of the first month of the eighteenth year of Yuanxing." Do you think if I continue to ask, will he tell me that he is the birth of the hour? ”

On the eighth day of the first month of the eighteenth year of Yuanxing, at dawn, the rising sun fell on the snow on the red brick and green tile palace wall, reflecting bursts of dazzling light, and a baby's cry came out in Fengqi Palace.

The most favored seven princes in the Dayu Palace were born at that time, and then thousands of favors were like the morning light of dawn, falling on him like a morning star, falling in this world.

The eight characters of the prince's birthday are a secret of the heavenly family, and civilians should not know about it.

Mu Jingxu pursed his lips and was silent, Ke Hongxue sighed softly: "There are so many coincidences, but they are not concealed in front of me, either they are deliberately disguised, or they are ......"

He paused and looked straight at Mu Jingxu: "Senior brother, do you believe that there is a resurrection from the dead in this world?" ”

Mu Jingxu was silent, Ke Hongxue stretched out his hand, extremely rare to exceed the moment, he pressed the back of Mu Jingxu's hand, a trace of perseverance flashed in his eyes, and said seriously: "I believe, I also believe that the cycle of karma is unpleasant, I believe in an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, I believe that there are gods in the first three feet, there should not be so many strange injustices in this world." What about you, brother? ”

Do you want to believe with me?

The wind blew through the small building, Mu Jingxu sat in place and was silent for a long time, and slowly withdrew his hand: "I don't believe it." ”

Ke Hongxue was anxious for a moment: "Senior brother-"

"Ah Xue......" Mu Jingxu interrupted him, raised his eyes, looked into his eyes, and repeated in a cool voice: "I don't believe it." ”

Don't give me hope.

Don't let me hope and be disappointed again.

I'd rather rot in the ground than touch the light of the dawn.

It's already tiring to be alive.

For me, the light and shadow in this world have long been an unattainable fantasy, and they can be broken as soon as they are poked.

Then ...... There is no need to look forward anymore.

I can't take it.!
