Su Yu couldn't help but stop, looking at this scene in a daze, and her thoughts were pulled back to the past. I remember that in the past, every festival, Yuan Day, Lantern Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and her birthday, the palace would hang lanterns like this, jubilant. Those festivals are also her happiest days, the court is on vacation, Aya has nothing to do, and she and A-Niang celebrate the festival together, drink Tusu wine on the first day, the Lantern Festival curfew is open, the city is full of lights, and the Mid-Autumn Festival night worships the moon and makes a wish. Not to mention her birthday, on that day, everyone in the mansion can wear new clothes, and it is as lively as Chinese New Year's Eve.

It was on her last birthday that Aya begged her for the title of hairpin, and in his mouth, the ugly scar on her forehead also became the only falling star in the world.

The eunuch followed her silently, and instead of urging, he breathed very lightly, as if he would disturb her thoughts.

Standing for a long time, Su Yu stepped across the threshold, wandering on the brick road where she had run back and forth when she was a child, and spilled countless laughter, and walked across the small bridge where the pool was filled in, and suddenly a few wisps of the sound of Jin Zhen of the wind and the wind were floating in the night wind, as if she was called by Yin Yin, she couldn't help but follow the sound and stepped into the dormitory here.

Walking through the courtyard of her memory, she slowly walked in.

She was greeted by two snow-purple curtains that hung quietly from the ground, and the curtains had been rolled up to the left and right with gold hooks hanging from the tassels, and she passed under the tent, passed the dormitory, and slowly pushed open a blue screen door, and turned into a small dormitory that was connected.

Facing is a lamp tree with warm and bright candles, next to the lamp, a Ruyi screen depicting flowers, birds and children playing, a couch with embroidered mats that is much smaller than the usual size, by the south window, there is a wooden horse on the ground, a string of small golden bells hanging on the horse's head, and a delicate stove at the head of the bed, and the furnace quietly scatters sweet sleep incense.

This is where she lived when she was a child.

Because he refused to be separated from Aya A-Niang, he set up this interconnected pavilion next to their dormitory. She remembered that she often lay between Aya and A-Niang before going to bed, and when she woke up the next morning, somehow, people ran to her little bed. If she doesn't ask Ah Niang, Ah Niang will push it to Ah Ye. At that time, Aya smiled and said that she had gone back to sleep in the middle of the night.

Everything was as she remembered it. Even the jade box containing her candy and the brocade basket containing her toys were exactly the same as before.

Su Yu stood in a daze, and I don't know how long it took, when he suddenly heard a gentle voice behind him that seemed to be a little cautious and tentative: "Sister? ”

She turned back and saw the current Emperor, standing behind her by the blue screen door that connected the two bedrooms.

Seeing that she saw herself, the emperor's eyes immediately bloomed with joy and excitement, and he stretched out his hands and coaxed in a slightly trembling voice: "Sister! It's Ayya! I am your Aye! ”

"Come here, come to me!"

It's still a familiar scene.

When she was a child, if she held out her hands to her like this, she would rush towards him with joy, rush into his arms, and then he would catch him and pick her up high.

Su Yu slowly turned around and faced the emperor, but did not go up, just looked at the person in front of him silently, and did not react.

The joy and excitement in the emperor's eyes vanished, and a look of loss appeared on his face. He also slowly put down his arms that were stretched out in the air, and suddenly, as if remembering something, turned around and walked up quickly, slammed open the lid of the box on the table, beckoned to her, and then pointed to the dazzling gold beads, jade, coral, and seser in the box, and said in a flattering tone: "Come and see, sister-in-law, this box is a treasure specially picked out for you by Aya's self-mansion treasury!" ”

The rain does not move.

"You don't like it? What about these? ”

The emperor opened a box again, and in it were many daughters' jewelry hairpin rings, and a string of five or six circles of gold jumped out because the emperor was too anxious to open the box, and it was hooked out, and it fell to the ground with a clang, rolling to the feet of Su Yu.

"You don't like it either? And also! Aya and there! ”

The Emperor opened another large box.

"This cage skirt, the name is very awkward, Aya can't remember, only listen to the embroidery lady said, what is it called Baibao Jumping Gold Skirt, said that it is woven with peacock velvet and gold and silver foil twisted thread paid by the female barbarian country, and this piece is woven in three years, and only one cage is wrapped in snow days, which is enough. Aya remembers that you liked new clothes the most when you were a child, how do you feel about this? ”

After the emperor finished speaking, he looked at her tightly with expectant eyes.

This golden and silver peacock feather skirt is as rich as a cloud, nailed with gold beads, and under the reflection of the candle flame, the whole skirt is golden and silver, flashing with a faint halo.

Su Yu's gaze lifted from the hem of her skirt and slowly shook her head.

"Don't like it? It doesn't matter! Aya and there! ”

The emperor rushed to say.

"Aye, I'll take you to Neku! See for yourself, what you like, just take—"

The emperor came back, took her by the hand, and hurriedly led her out as if she were the same little girl she had been.

Su Yu took off the emperor's palm that held him.

"Your Majesty!" She screamed.

"How did Your Majesty know about me?"

The emperor turned a deaf ear, only stopped, and slowly turned his head to look at Su Yu.

"Sister-in-law!"

After a moment, his gaze trembled and fell on Su Yu's forehead, "You deliberately covered up the wound on your forehead just because you didn't want Aya to recognize you, didn't you?" ”

"You've grown up, but Aya is old. Do you really want to recognize Aya anymore? ”

Muttering this sentence, the emperor's face suddenly aged a little at this moment. He looked at his daughter in front of him with disappointed eyes, and his tone was sad.

Su Yu's eyes were hot, and he couldn't help himself from crying.

"My aunt was harmed in the past, and when I was running for my life, I saw the people chasing me. I know who it is. Your Majesty, you know that too! After so many years, have you done anything for my aunt, Your Majesty? ”

As her words fell, the atmosphere in the room froze for a moment. The Emperor's gaze also turned dark. He looked at her fixedly, moved his lips slightly, and as if he wanted to say something, he finally paused.

"Nope! Your Majesty, you didn't do anything! Except for that mausoleum! But no matter how high the sealed soil is, no matter how big the underground palace is, in addition to making the world visible, Your Majesty, you ask for peace of mind yourself, what is the point to my aunt? Even, I have reason to suspect that my aunt, she is not in it at all! ”

These words, which had been fermenting in her heart, were like finding a cover at this moment, and kept coming out of her mouth. Seeing a wisp of mourning on the emperor's face, if she wanted to speak again, she cut it off.

"Your Majesty, what do you want to explain to me? Say you have a hard time, right? ”

She nodded.

"I've seen Zhao Bandang! He hid it for you, saying that he had never told you, that you knew nothing about the events of that year. He also said that you have a hard time! I believe it! Your Majesty, you are sitting on the four seas, and naturally you have your trade-offs. I believe you have a hard time. But so what? Your Majesty, you can comfort yourself with your sufferings and gain peace of mind. But with me, Your Majesty, I just want to say one thing—"

She spoke quickly and urgently, and when she said this, she was almost out of breath.

"Your Majesty, you have disappointed me so much! I'd rather never have such an Aye! ”

After a pause, her words rushed out of her mouth.

There was a terrible silence in the room for a moment. The emperor stared at her, and his face had changed several times, and he had lost the faint mourning at first, and had become gloomy.

"Sister-in-law, are you saying that if Aya can't give you a reason that satisfies you, you're going to never recognize Aya for the rest of your life?"

Su Yu was not afraid at all, and met the emperor's two threatening gazes.

"What if I'm not satisfied? I want to ask my aunt! Is she satisfied! I didn't come back to recognize Aye! Now that I know that Your Majesty has your troubles, then I will hold your troubles and be your saint, and I will go to find my mother! ”

Su Yu didn't want to see Aya's old face that annoyed her, so she walked out.

"Stop!"

Far from stopping, the rain is getting faster and faster.

"Stop!"

As she walked to the outside under the two purple curtains, an angry roar of the emperor came from behind her.

"If you dare to take another step, I will kill that kid from the Pei family immediately!"

Su Yu was stunned, stopped and turned his head to look, only to see that the emperor had caught up in stride, and his face was full of anger.

"Sister-in-law! You weren't like that when you were a kid! When did you become so disobedient? Who taught you all those thoughts that went against me? Is it the Pei family's little boy? Aya told you that he actually hates you Aya in his heart, and this time he should be called to Beijing, or save other thoughts, when Aya doesn't know? After he knew your identity, he deliberately tried everything to please you, the purpose was to separate you and my father and daughter, sister-in-law, you listen to Ayah, don't fall for outsiders! ”

Su Yu didn't know where the old father came from, these absurd words made her think she had heard the wrong words, and her eyes widened in surprise: "Pei Langjun is not such a person!" ”

The emperor sneered: "The little bit of thought of the little cub of the Pei family, I want to hide it from you?" This time he entered Beijing to be called, and when Aya saw him for the first time, he saw that he was not loyal to you Aye! It's not just that, it's a backbone! Now it's just a matter of forbearance, and there are other plans. If you don't believe it, if there is a change in the future, he will be the first to jump out and oppose you! ”

Su Yu was so angry that everyone trembled, and he couldn't wait to stretch out his hand and pull off a few of his beards on the spot: "You are talking nonsense!" He is by no means such a person! ”

Compared with Su Yu's emotions out of control at the moment, the emperor seemed to have slowly calmed down, and snorted: "Isn't it, you will know in the future!" Listen to Ayah, and don't believe him just because he was born well. What is the use of the skin? If you really like good-looking men, it doesn't matter, Aya will find you a lot in the future! ”

Su Yu was so angry that he paused: "What did you do to him?" ”

The emperor said lightly: "It's not good, he is very free, much more free than you!" ”

Su Yu was shocked in his heart, looking at the emperor's face staring at him, knowing that he couldn't ask anything here, so he slowly retreated.

The emperor didn't stop him this time, just looked at her, and said in a loving tone: "Sister, Aya is not in a hurry to ask you to recognize Aya at this moment. When you've figured it out, it's not too late for you to come back to Aye. ”

Su Yu stared at him, didn't say a word, turned around and walked away.

Chapter 54

She was anxious, came out, the carriage did not sit, dragged a horse of the palace guard, turned over, galloped all the way back to Yongning House, unimpeded, entered, and saw that the Qingtou who had not seen anyone during the day had returned, and was squatting by the door, his eyes were straight, and when he saw her, he said that he was in trouble.

Su Yu had vaguely guessed some causes and consequences, and asked him to enter with him.

As soon as he entered the house, Qingtou knelt on the ground and told him about his adventures during the day, until he met Pei Langjun who entered the palace at the gate of the Water Pavilion, and then he was watched by the palace supervisor, and it was not until Fang Cai that he was sent out of the palace and returned here.

"Xiao Langjun, did I get into a big accident and fall for Your Majesty, and actually told me that you are a little lady? When I saw Lang Jun enter the palace and heard me say this, his face changed suddenly. Lang Jun hasn't returned yet, could it be that he was locked up by His Majesty? ”

Qingtou cried and slapped his face.

"It's all my fault, why are you so stupid! Seeing His Majesty's kind eyebrows, he believed everything he said! What if something happens to you, Lang Jun and Pei Gong? ”

Su Yu was more and more upset by Qingtou's crying and slapping in the face, told him to go out, sat and waited for dawn, as soon as the door opened, he immediately rode to Lu Wusi's government office, and inquired, no one in the government office had seen him last night. Not only that, since the night before, Liu Bo hasn't seen him, looking for him for something, I've been to Jin Wuwei to look for it, and I don't see anyone else there, I was thinking about going to Pei's house in Yongningfang to ask for news.

"Xiao Langjun doesn't know where Si Cheng went? Since the night before, yesterday, and last night, I haven't seen Pei Sicheng's face, there has never been such a thing before! Liu Bo was very anxious.

Su Yu turned his head and immediately rushed to Chengping, wanting to ask him to inquire about the news, when he was about to enter the concert hall, there was a galloping sound of horses' hooves behind him, and soon, someone beside him swept the horse's shadow, and then, the man turned the horse's head sideways, and her front was blocked by a jade dragon horse with a golden face.

Su Yu raised his eyes and met a pair of dark eyes.

It's Yu Wenzhi who she hasn't met in some days.

The Xiping County Royal Mansion and the two Jinjuan Courtyards of the Chengping family are not far away, and they are all in this area. He looked as if he had just gone out with his entourage, and here he met her, and chased after him alone on horseback.

"Who are you looking for early in the morning?" As he spoke, he looked in the direction of Chengping across the street.

Su Yu was in the mood to entertain with him at the moment, but thinking that he had sent him a letter asking him to help a few days ago, he put down his anxiety, thanked him, and then hurried to leave, but then heard him say: "You don't know yet, right?" Yuan Cheng personally approached me yesterday and interrogated me about you. ”

Su Yu was stunned.

Yu Wenzhi looked at her with a suspicious gaze: "I naturally replied according to your instructions." But who are you? It's strange to enter the palace as a painter, why is it that even Yuan is eyeing you now? ”

In an instant, Su Yu's heart was like a mirror.

"This man is ruthless and vicious like a snake. You have to be careful. She heard Yu Wenzhi say again, came back to her senses, answered twice, said that there was something else, urged the horse to go around the people, and was about to continue to move forward, when suddenly a tortoiseshell handle horsewhip came in front of her, and stopped in front of her.

Yu Wenzhi looked at the front and back.

It was still early in the morning, and there weren't many people on the nearby streets. Immediately, he leaned over to her, whispered, and said in a somewhat strange tone: "I know that you have that person as a backer now, and you have all moved in together." The last time Qujiang had an accident, I heard that he saved you in the end, so you naturally look down on me, you won't look for me if you have something, and I don't have to be bored. But I still have to remind you that the surname Pei is not as simple as you think. I advise you to stay away from him. ”

When he saw Su Yu looking at him, he pursed his lips, "If you can't listen, just be my villain's heart!" After saying that, he sat up straight, returned to his usual somewhat arrogant appearance, turned the horse's head, whipped the horse's belly, and went to his own business.

Su Yu watched him ride away, frowned, and threw it away, continued to move forward, and soon came to Chengping's Jinjuan Academy, just when he came out, the person was at the door, and there were several entourages around him, where to go on the horse, seeing Su Yu, his eyes lit up, and he quickly greeted him, and without waiting for Su Yu to speak, he asked: "What about Pei Er?" I was just about to ask you. Yesterday I looked for him, but I didn't see anyone else. I heard from one of my brothers who was on duty in the palace that he seemed to enter the palace in the evening and never came out. Could something be wrong? ”

Su Yu knew that the relationship between him and Pei Xiaoyuan was different, and he was in a hurry to find him this morning, originally wanting him to ask him to inquire about where Pei Xiaoyuan was locked up by the emperor, but thinking of what he had just heard about Yuan Value, he hesitated and changed his words: "Yuan Value can I ask you about me yesterday?" ”

Cheng Ping nodded: "Yes." I went to Pei Er yesterday for this matter. You have to be careful. Also, how could he have his eye on you? What the hell is going on? ”

Aya appeared too suddenly last night, and she didn't expect him to treat Pei Xiaoyuan like that, emotionally, she couldn't think about anything, and she slowly cooled down at the moment, and she realized.

She suppressed her guilt and annoyance, and said, "I know. I'll be careful. Pei Langjun should have something else to do, don't worry, he will be back soon. I'll go first! ”
