Chapter 8: A Love Letter
The sideburns want to be fragrant and snowy, lazy to draw moth eyebrows, and late to make up and groom. Before and after the flowers, the flower surface reflects each other, the new embroidered robe, and the double golden partridge.
Although this poem depicts a coquettish woman, missing her lover from afar, and feeling lazy and tired, at this moment, it seems quite appropriate to describe the expression of Xu Zixuan, the third lady of the Taishi Mansion, at that time.
The cold winter of Layue is also an important factor for people to be attached to the warm quilt of the bed collapse, and they are lazy and tired and reluctant to get up. At the same time, the excitement made her have mixed feelings and couldn't sleep for a long time.
Even in her dreams, she was inseparable from Wu Shuang! After waking up from the dream, she clearly remembered that Wu Shuang was holding her hand and running among the flowers in the area of Huixian Pavilion in the suburbs, it seemed that it was still a time of spring flowers! They sometimes chased the colorful and beautiful butterflies, and sometimes squatted down by the stream, holding hands and shoulder to shoulder, and she could also feel the temperature coming from each other's cheeks. In the stream, they saw small fish and shrimp swimming happily, but when they put their fingers into the water, the fish and shrimp flashed and they all got into the middle of the water!
"Look! there's a big fish here. ”
She looked back in amazement, only to see Wu Shuang pick up a handful of clear river water, swaying at her sky, she shouted in surprise, in the sun, in the spring breeze, she saw the water droplets in the sky, reflecting the brilliant sun, as if it was a bright pearl falling from the sky. At that moment, her mind was also like these dazzling pearls, full of magnificent colors, full of magical fantasies. It also made her feel like never before, the original world is still so wonderful!
So, she giggled, ran up to the grassy streambank, lay on the grass with him, looked up at the blue sky and white clouds, they held hands, shoulder to shoulder, cheeks to sideburns, eyes to autumn waves, infinite warmth!
They looked up at the swallows flying in pairs, listened to the spring breeze singing slowly, and they heard the swallows' elegant murmuring, as if telling the most touching heartbeat! At that moment, she saw Wu Shuang's pair of talking eyes, full of tenderness and sweetness, all lingering. In the sunshine, she saw his handsome cheeks, with an extraordinary heroic spirit, such heroism made her feel safe, down-to-earth, reliable, and the jade tree was beautiful and flawless!
However, the good dream finally awakens, and the years are still long.
When she sat in front of the mirror and groomed in the mirror, the maid Xiang'er helped her comb the black waterfall and her silky hair, but found that her mood was more joyful and excited than ever, at this moment, her face was full of tireless smile, just like the flowers laughing at the wind, the birds singing to you as natural, beautiful, and cheerful! All this, of course, is not difficult to Lingxiu Bingxue Xiang'er, she is also the most good at the master's good maid, her words and deeds, has always been in the master's joys, sorrows, and sorrows in general.
Therefore, she knew the time and made such a thrilling counselor for the young lady:
"Miss, it's cooling, and there's still snowflakes in the rain! It looks like it's going to be very cold today, have you figured it out, what skirt to wear?"
Obviously, Xu Zixuan was completely immersed in her own long-term reverie, she didn't have it at all, she thought about what dress she was going to wear next, and when Xiang'er asked, he also pushed the boat and asked her:
"What dress do you think I look good in today? ”
"Xiang'er thinks that today is a rainy and snowy day, and it must be very cold outside," Xiang'er helped her pin the jade pendant golden hairpin, glanced at her from the mirror, smiled and said, "Just wear that autumn-colored velvet dress, jacket goose yellow satin shoulders, isn't it very warm and glamorous!"
Immediately, Xu Zixuan cast an approving glance at her from the mirror, which was a unique way of communication formed by the master and servant, who have been inseparable since childhood, and this way is also known as tacit understanding.
After finishing grooming and dressing up, Xu Zixuan lifted the door curtain with a timid look and an inexplicable heartbeat, and bent sideways into her boudoir.
At that moment, she felt so strange to herself! Why did I feel such a wonderful feeling when I entered my room? As for the answer, she herself seemed to understand, but she did not seem to understand at all. However, her maid Xiang'er knows very well, because many things have always been like this, and the authorities are obsessed with bystanders.
When the door curtain was gently lifted under her delicate jade fingers, of course, her eyes couldn't help but look at her couch first, because she thought that Wu Shuang was injured last night and was very tired, and he should still be asleep on her exquisite embroidered couch at this time!
However, what she saw in front of her made her immature heart stunned, only to see that the bed was empty, and the person was nowhere to be found. Suddenly, her face, which was as bright as a flower just now, had become sad and miserable in an instant. She took almost three steps and two steps, rushed to her bed, she touched the quilt with her hand, obviously Wu Shuang had been gone for a long time, and there was no temperature on the mattress.
At that moment, for some unknown reason, her always bright eyes were blurred with tears, and one or two crystal teardrops were drip along her petal-like pink cheeks on the charming autumn-scented dress she had just put on.
Alas, she thought to herself, who is the jade pearl for, the empty bed in the treasure pavilion has gone, and she is melancholy for no reason!
At this moment, she suddenly felt that her body was very tired and tired, like a weak patient, and she could no longer be bothered to take a step or say a word! She was like that, lazily, leaning over, sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze, and even the wonderful and flawless dream of last night seemed to be no longer felt at this moment that there was anything wonderful about it worthy of her praise.
Xiang'er, the maid in the next room, saw that the young lady had been here for a long time, and there was no movement, and she didn't even hear the two of them talking, let alone their laughter, what were the two of them doing? Thinking of this, her face couldn't help but suddenly turn crimson, but the contradictory mood always inspired her, and she lifted the curtain to take a sneak peek at what the young lady and the benefactor of the jade tree were doing!
Curiosity finally triumphs over shyness!
She carefully opened the curtain of the door, and when she saw the young lady sitting on the edge of the bed with her head down, crying secretly, she was startled, and hurried over, and asked:
"What's wrong with Miss! What about Wu Shuang and the others? Is he gone?"
"He's gone!" Xu Zixuan almost called out in a crying voice. It seems that a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, her emotions are so arbitrary, natural, reckless, naïve, and she is not well versed in the disguise and reserve of the city government.
At this moment, in fact, Xiang'er's mood is also very lost, but she is a maid, she thinks that the coming and going of Wu Shuang, although it will make her mood feel a little fluctuating, but she still feels that in front of the young lady, this person will never become the man she cares about.
Therefore, he is much calmer than Xu Zixuan, and the things she observes and thinks about will be clearer and more organized than Miss.
Suddenly, she saw a piece of writing pressed with an agate comb on the dressing table in front of her, and many words were densely written on it, so she exclaimed:
"Miss, the note that Wu Shuang left for you!"
"Really!" Xu Zixuan stood up in surprise, she walked to the dresser next to the bed, and was almost so excited that she snatched the note from Xiang'er's hand. With indescribable excitement, she read the note.
It reads like this:
The third lady of Taishi Mansion, Xu Zixuan, Taiqi.
Good morning Miss Three:
By the time you see this note, which does not become a letter, I have already left your house. Originally, I came this time to personally tell Lord Ling Zun what I told you last night, but there was a reason for it, and everything was not as natural as we imagined! Therefore, I had no choice but to ask Miss to tell Ling Zun about this matter as soon as possible, so that he could take precautions as soon as possible, so as not to fall into the calculations of the bad guys!
In addition, as far as our two encounters are concerned, I am grateful to God for giving me the privilege of meeting a girl like you, the third lady of the Taishi Mansion, who has captivated the country and the city, and has also received your special care and care, which is the honor of my life! As for the little thing when we met in the Black Wind Forest, it is not worth mentioning at all; from last night's reunion, I also feel that you are not only beautiful and flawless, ice and snow smart, but also kind-hearted, lovely and respectable!
Finally, please forgive me for saying goodbye!
May you always be happy and happy!
There will be a period later!
Wu Shuang (To be continued.) )
