Chapter 44: Affectionate and Ruthless (1)
The sweetest thing in the world is that you are moved by true feelings, and the most bitter thing is also moved by true feelings.
Although Qingtian has long been an adult and has been married for thousands of years, in his past life, he has either fought or assisted in the affairs of the government, and has never had a love experience of children and daughters.
When he met Xiao Wu, Qing Tian gradually understood that love could be so wonderful, distressing and worrying. There is no one else in his eyes, and he cannot tolerate others. Qingtian is waiting for Xiao Wu to grow up, and wants to mingle with her.
Qingtian has seen many beauties, all of whom have all kinds of talents and skills, but to him, they are just women after all.
There is a kind of woman, in addition to being a woman, she can also confidant, and fortunately, she can be a bosom friend.
Xiao Wu is such a woman to Qingtian, he feels that he and Xiao Wu have long been in their hearts, tacit understanding like siblings, considerate like confidants, and acquaintances like bosom friends. In the vast world, it is a blessing to meet such a woman.
Such a woman is around, but Qingtian always feels that he can't hold it.
Qingtian knew that as long as he wanted, he could choose from the thousands of women around him, and this Lu Xiaowu alone showed her feelings for him intentionally or unintentionally, always pretending to be stupid and deliberately dodging, and the reason why he was distressed was that she was pinching the time to leave.
"She's leaving! she's leaving......"
Qingtian's heart was filled with these words over and over again, and he felt a chill on his body, and his heart throbbed and throbbed. In the past, he never thought that Xiao Wu would have the idea of leaving. How could a little girl who had lost her memory and family have such a strange idea? She once knelt down and begged Xuanyuan Zhenjun to let her stay in Xiyi Immortal Mansion, not hesitating to be a coolie sweeping boy, and also asked for a place to live in peace.
Is it better to be a scholar than a sweeping boy? Is he not as good as Xiyi Xianfu to her?
Feeling that his heart was being despised and let down, Optimus was indignant. Qingtian, who did not feel the slightest sleep, felt very frustrated and hurt, sat on the stone pillar in front of the Chenghua Palace, waved his sleeves and conjured two jars of wine, and drank alone in the lonely night sky.
In the Jingzhang Palace, the first side concubine married by the crown prince Qingtian, --- Weixi, had just gotten up and was about to make up, she was sitting in front of the bronze mirror, her hand touching her still beautiful and glamorous face, and she was secretly sad.
She hadn't come out of the resentment of staying in the Fangfei Hall the day before yesterday, and her expression was sad and sad, and a fairy was holding a comb and combing her hair like a waterfall.
Weixi's personal maid Zhiwei came in with small steps like a gust of wind, bowed slightly to Weixi, and whispered to Xian'e, "You go down first."
After Xian'e Shili withdrew, Zhiwei came to Weixi's side and said in a low voice: "Niangniang, there was a message this morning, saying...... Said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ...... last night I went to the little scholar's room, and I stayed for a long time."
"What? How could it be? in the middle of the night...... After that, where did the prince go?", Wei Xi listened, stood up in disbelief, got up, found that he was out of shape, and hurriedly stopped talking.
Zhiwei glanced at the angry master, stretched out her hand to help Wei Xi sit down again, and said softly: "After that, the prince ...... It's right in front of the Chenghua Palace...... drinking".
"Drinking?"
Wei E's eyebrows frowned, and she was even more puzzled, why did the prince, who doesn't like to drink too much, drink in the middle of the night?
Wei Xi has never believed the rumors that the prince has taken a fancy to the little scholar. With her understanding of the prince, Wei Xi thought that the rumors could not be taken seriously. But it is really unbelievable to enter the little scholar's room in the middle of the night and drink alone.
Wei Ji frowned, looked at it from the bronze mirror, and followed Zhiwei, who had been serving her, and asked listlessly: "Zhiwei, what do you think?"
Zhiwei picked up the comb, combed Wei Xi's hair, hesitated for a moment, and analyzed: "The slave maid thinks that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the little scholar will be fine...... First, His Royal Highness the Prince's taste will not be so bad, the prince has never seen any beauty? Why can the little scholar make His Royal Highness fall in love with her?
Second, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cherishes his reputation and face very much, and he has never caused any romantic gossip, and it is impossible to be a lowly little scholar."
"What about the three?", Wei Xi felt that the analysis was reasonable, glanced at Zhiwei, who was thinking and no longer spoke, and took the initiative to ask.
"Three?...... The slave didn't dare to say."
"Say, there are no outsiders"
"Yes, the slave maid thinks...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... It's a gracious person, and he ...... to his mother."
Zhiwei paused the movements of her hand, looked up at Wei Xi in the mirror, and saw that the master was biting her red lip, and she didn't want to blame her for ignoring the master, so she was bold enough to say: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only has the community in his heart, and he has never put women in his heart...... If it weren't for that, Niang Niang wouldn't be ...... I am so lonely and unhappy today."
Wei Xi's eyes changed a few times, knowing that Zhiwei felt sorry for herself, but regardless of whether the master was bad after all, she reminded softly, "In the future, Hugh will say such rebellious words again."
"Yes! Niangniang", Zhiwei responded softly, no more squeaking, she knew that Niangniang was not angry with herself, and she also knew that her words had touched Niangniang's sadness.
Wei Xi also thinks in her heart that the prince and the little scholar get along day and night, on a whim, fortunately with the little peach-blossom-like girl, it is still possible, but it is absolutely impossible to fall in love.
Wei Xi is the eldest princess of the Huxu clan of the ancient clan, although the Huxu clan is not as brilliant as the ancestors, but many years of marriage, and all ethnic groups have inextricable relations, its status is enough to call for influence many clans. The queen of heaven is also from the clan, according to the generation, Wei Xi should call the queen of heaven as an aunt.
Although Wei Ji is a concubine's daughter, she has a very high heart, and her father Wang saw that her talent was good, so he cultivated it since childhood. When Wei Xi grew up, she became a well-known talent, not only with a long flower and moon appearance, but also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and Wentao Wuluo.
In order to consolidate the power within the clan, the queen of heaven made Tianjun early and married her eldest son Qingtian and Weiji, and originally planned to be the position of the main concubine, but the heavenly monarch had his own considerations and only agreed to give the side concubine position.
When they first got married, Qingtian and Wei Ji also fell in love with each other for many years, talented and beautiful, and they were very good at poetry and songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and Wen Taowu strategy.
Wei Ji is the first woman in Qingtian, who has just tasted the rain and love, and she is glued together.
Qingtian is willing to say anything to Weixi, she will often give him many amazing ideas, Qingtian handed over the affairs of the harem to her, and Weixi has become a veritable heroine of Yongzheng Palace.
As the number of beauties around Qingtian who are rewarded and offered increases, the freshness of that skin is not there. Qingtian gradually saw that under Weixi's beautiful appearance and the aura of a talented woman, he became more and more unbearable for the ruthlessness of unscrupulous means for profit, and she was greedy for power, scheming, and murderous behavior, so he gradually distanced himself from her. For more than a thousand years, the two have long been separated from each other and have no real name.
Wei Xi fell from the sky to the ground, and was troubled by the prince's newly married side concubine --- Wumei. The fox spirit Wu Mei's ability to charm the prince is really powerful, she spent a lot of effort to make the prince tired of the fox spirit step by step, and as a result, she and Wu Mei were both defeated, and the prince rarely came to the harem, and he only went to a few beauties for a short stay, and never stayed overnight.
For thousands of years, Wei Xi has not even seen the shadow of the prince, she is a proud woman, and she will not be like the fox spirit and the little beauty, looking for all kinds of excuses to deliberately approach the prince. However, loneliness crawled upon her like a demon, gnawing at her broken heart.
When she knew that the prince was staying in the fox spirit's Fangfei Palace, Wei Xi's heart ached like a thousand arrows piercing her heart! She could tolerate the prince ignoring the harem, and she could bear his presence with those beauties, but she couldn't bear it, he shared the bed with her rival who was on an equal footing, which was undoubtedly a violation of her dignity.
That night, Wei Ji guarded a pair of red candles alone, recalling the prince's amorous eyes staring at her, the feeling of his big hand on his cheeks with hot temperature, and the love words he had said......
Wei Xi couldn't help herself, all the grievances gushed out at once, and she howled and cried, like crazy......
"Your Majesty, your majesty can't treat your concubines like this...... Can't you...... You said that you love your concubines, and you can't live without concubines...... Your Majesty, how can you break your word? You can't break your word...... You can't treat your concubines like this! You can't ......."
No matter how strong and smart a woman is, she will inevitably fall into the whirlpool of feelings and cannot extricate herself!
Wei Xi loves the crown prince Qingtian deeply, she has always believed that she is the only woman who is qualified to stand by the emperor's side, and she is confident that she has the ability to help the emperor beside her guide the country, just like her aunt and queen.
However, all these expectations are getting farther and farther away from her, and Weixi is in great pain, but she doesn't want to give up......
After all, she was young, Xiao Wu's injury was healed in less than two days, she acted as if nothing had happened, and the days went by as usual, accompanying her to meditate, practicing swords, and accompanying her in the tired copywriting at night.
Qingtian was annoyed in his heart, feeling that he had been let down and despised by Xiao Wu...... He always ignored Xiao Wu, and the two basically didn't communicate, everything was going on silently and tacitly.
Qingtian, a dignified prince of the Heavenly Clan, and a time-tested slaughtering hero, actually gambled with his little scholar and made an awkward fuss. He had a black face all day long, as if the whole world owed him, and he ignored endlessly.
Xiao Wu could feel that the prince had something on his mind, he was much more taciturn than before, his eyes were cold, resentful and unpredictable, and there was more grievance and sadness in the piano sound.
As a scholar, doing his own thing is the only code of action, and he feels that he has not made any mistakes, so Xiao Wu naturally won't think much about anything?
We can't afford to hide if we can't afford it!
Since she was punished for kneeling, Xiao Wu rarely went to the study during the day, for fear of encountering uninvited trouble again. Xiao Wu told Yanwen in advance that if there was something, she could go to the wild pond next to the Luoying Hall to find her.
Yanwen knew that Xiao Wu was punished to kneel, and he also understood that she was deliberately dodging, so he agreed. In the decades of official document exchange with Xiao Wu, Yan Wen appreciates the little girl's way of doing things, and Xiao Wu also likes Yan Wen's elegance and flexibility, and the two have a good friendship.
Xiao Wu will stay by the wild lotus pond almost during the day, where he will be in a daze, reading, playing the flute, practicing swords, etc., and occasionally hunting hares and catching fish.
One day, Xiao Wu was in a daze in the pavilion, and the lotus fairy ---- Hanlian came.
Since they met in Xiyi Immortal Mansion, this is the second time that Xiao Wu and Han Lian have met. The first time they met, it was because the prince complained that she didn't care about Yongzheng Palace, and Xiao Wu asked Han Lian to help find a big pomegranate tree to plant in front of the Chenghua Palace, in order to shade the prince when he practiced swords. The reason why I chose the pomegranate tree is because I like to eat pomegranates.
When they met again, Xiao Wu and Han Lian talked very happily, and Han Lian lacked the cold arrogance when they first met. After that, Han Lian would often come to the wild lotus pond to chat with Xiao Wu, and Han Lian liked to inquire about some things about the prince Qingtian.
In addition to the political affairs that can't be said, Xiao Wu can be regarded as endless, after all, she is also bored, not to mention the prince who is frowning and uncertain to her, and her mouth is really happy.
Every time before leaving, Han Lian will leave two delicate lotus flowers for Xiao Wu to take back to arrange vases.
The clever Xiao Wu found out that Han Lian was actually secretly in love with the prince, so she teased: "Oh, I understand, it turns out that Sister Han Lian asked me about the prince because of ...... Because of you...... Love the prince, haha, right?".
"Dead girl, she is talking crazy things!"
"Oh, no...... Well, the prince's matter involves secrets, and I won't dare to say it again in the future...... I won't bring your flowers, it's troublesome...... Ben was still thinking about it, and there was no need to help my sister say good things...... I don't have to worry about it."
"You...... People are small and big, and I have served you."
Han Lian shyly acquiesced, she didn't want to lose, she could get close to the prince's most direct help, she needed Xiao Wu to mediate from it, so that the prince could understand her mind.
"Haha, admit it...... Well, pursuing what you love, there's nothing to be embarrassed about, my sister helped me, this thing...... I'll help you!"
Xiao Wu is a warm-hearted person, and he does his best to help match, although he has an inexplicable feeling of emptiness in his heart, but when he thinks about it, he will soon be able to hold the sword while looking for his family, and when he goes to see the prosperity of the world, his mood jumps again.
In fact, Xiao Wu can also understand the hearts of Prince Qingtian and Zixiao, but she can't accept the frightening harem life, she can only pretend to be stupid and wait for the day she leaves.
Leave, everything will be over! Xiao Wu wants to find the life she wants.
The reason why Xiao Wu has the stubborn idea of loving only one person with all her heart is because in the genes of the Bailu clan for generations, once men and women are identified, they will stay together until death, one party dies early, and the other party will never remarry. Therefore, Xiao Wu has an instinctive rejection of the identity of Qingtian and Zi Xiaotian's son.
After all, when it comes to the flowering season of the budding heart, in the face of the true feelings of excellent men, it is inevitable that there will be feelings such as greed for shoulders to rely on.
Xiao Wu often laughed and teased Han Lian, asking her to bring delicious fresh lotus seeds in exchange for messages. Xiao Wu likes Han Lian, and when she is a good friend, she also thinks that Han Lian and the prince should be a talented and beautiful pair, she is willing to help Han Lian, so that the prince can understand her mind as soon as possible, and promote a good match made in heaven.
Every day, Xiao Wu would insert a slim lotus flower in the vase on the table, and put it in the most conspicuous place that Qingtian could see, for fear of not attracting attention, and would have to move it several times a night. In addition, as long as you seize the opportunity, you will talk about how beautiful the lotus fairy is, and how good is it?
Entrusted by people to be loyal to people, Xiao Wu is a man of action, and he will do what he says.
Seeing that Qingtian had a gloomy face all night and ignored himself, Xiao Wu took the time when the prince closed his eyes and rested, and reminded: "His Royal Highness the prince will rest, let's have some refreshments."
Qingtian's eyes were gloomy, and the little girl, who was well-behaved and had some flattering color, still ignored her.
Seeing that the prince didn't take care of himself, Xiao Wu reached out and picked up the lotus seeds and peeled them, saying, "This lotus seed is newly picked by the lotus fairy, and it is very fresh...... The fairy said that when you give it to the prince, you must peel it fresh."
Xiao Wu didn't notice that Qingtian's face was gradually darkening like a dark cloud before the storm, and she still said while peeling off: "The fairy also said that it is sweeter to remove the lotus seed heart...... The immortals are not only beautiful, but also gentle and considerate, Your Royal Highness the Prince, you ......."
When Xiao Wu handed the freshly peeled lotus seeds to Qingtian, he saw the anger and coldness of the prince who wanted to eat people, and he was immediately confused.
Like a chicken, Qingtian pulled Xiao Wuti to his side, pressed it on the case, and the whole person bullied him, gritting his teeth and saying viciously: "Damn it! Are you testing Benjun's patience?"
Xiao Wu was directly frightened, in the past hundred years, the prince had never treated her like this, her big eyes were round, blinking, she wanted to understand, why was the prince suddenly so angry?
Qing Tian's eyes were red, and he glared at the woman he loved so much in front of him, but this woman not only did not love him, but also enthusiastically sent the woman to his arms.
It's so heartless! It's so ignorant! It's so hateful!
felt that self-esteem and pride were ruthlessly trampled on, and the bottom line was repeatedly challenged, and for a moment I really wanted to strangle this unknown thing.
After glaring angrily for a long time, seeing the little girl's silent and aggrieved and inexplicable appearance, Qingtian still relented and slowly let go of Xiao Wu.
Qingtian looked up to the sky with a bitter face, and sighed, what kind of evil fate is this? Let this damn thing harm himself like this, disturb him very peacefully, and be very troubled.
Experience teaches.
After that, Fan Qingtian didn't introduce the topic, Xiao Wu didn't dare to take the initiative to say more, and Han Lian's topic never dared to mention it again.
