It is another year of apricot blossoms, the new emperor of the Great Jin Kingdom ascends the throne, the government and the opposition celebrate together, and the world will be amnesty within March.

Zi Ning was accustomed to looking at this delicate apricot blossom day, so she ordered the maid to put a rosewood couch under the flower tree, and spread a soft gold embroidered pillow with fresh pink satin.

Two maids stood solemnly on the side, holding a glass fruit plate and flower leaf tea in their hands. Another maid set up a half-blackout silk umbrella from the soft couch and helped Zining to lie down.

Looking up and slanting, a blue sky reflected by the flowers and trees, Zi Ning raised his hand to wipe his forehead and smiled faintly. Countless pink and white petals fell one after another, scattered in all directions, and sprinkled on her fine gold silk single silk silk colorful phoenix robe, spreading a piece of pink snow white.

When she first saw that piece of apricot blossom, she was lucky. In this flowery years, when entrusted to a man who knows how to appreciate, he will not bloom and decline alone, live up to the east wind of the night, and live up to the prosperity of a tree.

The beauty of this tree is like the reflection of her girlhood, with long hair hanging down, purple clothes and green hairpins, moaning and laughing. Oh, there was a majestic man standing beside him, with gold and snow satin clothes, a sword and a heart, and a peerless face.

The Su Mansion, the first scholar family of the Great Jin Kingdom, has a prosperous family background for a hundred years, and the prestige and status comparable to the royal family. Su Zhen, who is known as Master Su, became her wishful husband ten years ago. The women in the world are either hated or jealous, and they talk about the luck of her life, which is full of the tone of legendary wild history, like a mist dyed with flowers.

The maid stood aside, bent her head slightly, looked at Zi Ning, whose clothes were covered with petals, pursed her lips and smiled: "Madame's unparalleled demeanor is really the first beauty in the Great Jin Kingdom." Everyone says that Master Su is tender in the world, and he only loves beauties and does not love the court......"

Zi Ning's face was hot, and then she stretched out her wrist to support it, half of the apricot blossoms on her chest fell, and she reproached softly: "You little girl with a rap, you don't know anything, you just listen to people." "I just gently pinched one petal, and it looked white. What is the first beauty of the Great Jin Dynasty, what is the famous lady of the scholar family, what is the golden branches and jade leaves of the palace, it has long been dispersed in the wind. can't compare to the apricot blossom in her hand, some people pity it.

A child dressed in brocade clothes walked through the flower tree, ran to the couch with his feet "kicking", and shouted loudly: "Mother, mother, ......" and then the nurse who chased after him shouted: "Little master, don't run, beware of falling." ”

Zi Ning grabbed the child, wiped the fine sweat on his head with a silk handkerchief, and scolded slightly: "I ran this sweat, beware of the cool breeze." Yu'er is now seven years old, and she is still so naughty, and her mother is going to break her heart. As he spoke, he gently kissed his fair and delicate forehead.

Yu'er's eyes were dark and smart, she stuck out her tongue with a smile, reached out to put her arms around Zi Ning's neck, leaned into her ear, and asked softly, "Mother, what is a concubine?"

Slightly stunned, Zi Ning held Yu'er's round face with both hands, looked at it for a moment, and said with a smile: "Why is my Yu'er asking this?"

Yu'er frowned, tilted her head and said, "Mama said that when Yu'er grows up, she will choose some maidens for Yu'er." What's that girl, is it a delicious snack?"

As soon as these words came out, the maids all covered their mouths and laughed. Zi Ning couldn't help laughing, and said seriously: "A girl is not a sam, she is a woman." ”

Yu'er was puzzled, raised her head and asked, "What did you choose some women for?" ”

Zi Ning stroked Yu'er's head, yes, what do you want from the men of the scholar clan of the Great Jin Kingdom to those hundreds of women?

She loves her husband's words the most: "Born as a man, you should have a passionate heart, and you should have a sense of responsibility." Choosing a woman is not for bullying, but for protection. ”

hugged Yu'er to his lap, hugged his soft shoulders, and said, "Didn't Yu'er say that you want to be a big hero when you grow up?"

Yu'er nodded heavily, and said in a childish voice: "Yu'er has become a big hero and protects her father and mother." ”

Zi Ning said: "Those women are all poor women in the world, no one loves them, no one pities them. Yu'er has become a big hero, are you willing to protect them?"

Yu'er's eyes blinked, thoughtful, and only after a while did he hesitantly nod and said, "Since it is pitiful, then Yu'er will protect it together." ”

The maids all smiled, and a bunch of eyes converged on Yu'er, flashing with a soft glow. I only heard a whispering voice like a magnetic: "Who did Yu'er say she wanted to protect?" From behind the flower tree, a scarlet satin figure came out, looking at Zi Ning and Yu Er with a pair of bright eyes and a smile.

Yu'er jumped up happily, jumped down from Zi Ning's lap, jumped two steps and threw herself into his arms, "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy is back home!"

Zi Ning also smiled and got up, and said coquettishly with half anger: "My husband still wants to go home, the concubine has been looking forward to these days, and her neck is stretched and twisted." Saying that, he bowed slightly, and snuggled into his warm and steady arms.

Su Zhen hugged his wife and children tightly, closed his eyes with a smile, and remained silent for a long time.

After a while, his eyes opened and he said, "Ning'er, there is good news you want to hear?"

Zi Ning leaned on his shoulder and pouted coquettishly: "Ning'er doesn't listen, the return of her husband is the best news." Since marrying into Sufu, she has been separated from her husband for half a month for the first time in these years, which made her taste the pain of lovesickness. At this moment, even if there are thousands of joyful news, it is not as good as Su Zhen appearing alive in front of her.

Su Zhen smiled, "The new emperor ascended the throne, rewarded the sergeant clan of the country, and enshrined Ning'er as the first lady of the auspicious order." The father-in-law who issued the decree was on the road yesterday morning and arrived in Su Mansion a day later. ”

Zi Ning looked at him in surprise, she couldn't believe it, but seeing his soft and deep gaze made her feel at ease and warm.

In the quiet apricot blossoms, the maids left with the naughty reputation, leaving only the husband and wife to support each other, and the layers of flowers and trees were scattered, watching the clouds rise and the wind roll, and the flowers fly and fall.

Zi Ning suddenly said: "Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, she must be the queen." I haven't seen her for ten years, and I don't know how well she is doing. When you enter the palace to see her this time, does she look more beautiful?" A picture of a beautiful hairpin holding a scroll appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Time has passed so quickly, it has been ten years." It's a pity that the new monarch has not solved the lingering meaning, and the people of the past are still yellow flowers. ”

Su Zhen lowered his head and smiled: "If I say that she is more beautiful, you must be jealous." If you say she's not beautiful, you don't necessarily believe it. I have to say that I haven't seen her for ten years, even if I entered the palace this time, I went to the outer courtyard of the palace to feast with the new emperor, and I didn't step into the harem for half a step. As for the audience with the queen, it is neither reasonable nor decent. What's more, it doesn't matter to me whether she's beautiful or not. The heart already belongs, even if it is met for many years, it is calm. ”

The apricot petals fell, and the two of them were close to a bright snow-white in front of them.

"There is a sentence, Ning'er has waited for ten years, and she always has to ask her husband. Zi Ning raised her head, stared at his eyes, and asked affectionately, "Why did you choose me back then?"

A little cook with a poor identity, floating alone, among the women with overlapping figures. Lord Su, the son of the first scholar clan of the Great Jin Kingdom, ruined the contract of the royal princess and abandoned the love of the lady of the boudoir;

The disparity in status, the gate is strict, and I have seen a group of desolate and desperate women, unable to cross this abyss and ravine, crying tears and blood, and suffering from life. But there are always lucky women in the world, stepping on countless ditches and bumps, separating and merging, life and death, and finally side by side of Su Zhen, there is only one Zining.

Su Zhen stretched out his hand to touch the apricot blossom tree, gently broke off a branch, and said with a light smile: "Apricot person, fortunately." Everyone said that Ning Er was lucky to meet Su Zhen in a thousand turns. But I said that Su Zhen was fortunate to meet Zining. Put the apricot blossoms into her hand, stared at her pretty face, and said movingly: "I am fortunate to meet the Qing, and I live up to the court! There are many princesses and ladies in the world, but there is only one Zining." Su Zhen has always only chosen the unique. ”

With his arms folded, he hugged Zi Ning tightly into his arms, and the fragrant smell of her body was still the same as it was back then, making his eyes slowly close, revealing a relieved smile. After a while, he leaned low into her ear and whispered softly: "Su Zhen's arms will always belong to one person!"

Zi Ning's eyes were hot, and the flower branches in his hands trembled, and he suddenly realized in his heart: "I know that I have been here for thousands of years, just to find you-Su Zhen!"

It seems to recall the early spring of the old year, and the apricot blossoms are flying and falling all over the ground. ——
