The cold dew is coming, the days are warm and the nights are cool.
In the early morning, on the carefully pruned holly trees on both sides of the garden road in Yunmeng Temple, clusters of red eastern green fruits with turquoise branches and leaves, covered with a thin layer of autumn frost, like fine snow, look absolutely picturesque.
As the sun shines and the temperature rises, the frost on the branches gradually turns into dew, condensing into drops of crystal water.
The bluestone paved courtyard path made the dew wet, and suddenly a few pairs of embroidered shoes could be seen rushing back and forth, and it was the maids and daughters who stepped on the stone slabs and rushed straight into the main house, accompanied by a rush on the road.
"It's all fast, the girl has nightmares again."
"Hurry up" In the boudoir, on the incense couch covered with a hibiscus brocade quilt, it can be seen that Mu Nuan's slender body is sitting only in a middle coat, with a dark green silk hanging behind her back like a waterfall, and she is already sweating, and the broken hair on her forehead is wet with sweat, covering her chest and breathless, and her pale face is panicked.
Today's vigil is the big girl ring water, hearing the movement of the first to arrive, at this moment has taken a nightgown to cover Mu Nuan's shoulders, patted her back, and softly reassured: "Girl, it's okay, it's okay" Mu Nuan just woke up from a nightmare, her eyes were empty, staring intently at somewhere, she was silent for a moment and calmed down, and she read a name: "Brother Xun." ” Mu Nuan no longer remembered how many times she woke up from a nightmare, and she didn't know how many times she repeated this dream.
In the dream, the mist was as hazy as a veil, and there was a small arched stone bridge not far away, on which Li Xun was sitting in a wooden wheelchair, looking at her with a smile on his lips, his eyes full of tenderness.
Mu Nuan beckoned, shouting "Brother Xun" while running towards the stone bridge.
But every time she arrived at the stone bridge, Li Xunren had disappeared without a trace, leaving only an empty wheelchair standing quietly on the stone bridge, which was always untouchable.
In her dream, Mu Nuan had been looking for Li Xun's traces on the stone bridge, but every time she was lost on the stone bridge, she was surrounded by fog and couldn't see anything, and she shouted hoarsely, and finally woke up by shouting Li Xun's name.
Li Xun is the third son of the current emperor, King Jing, born to Xu Guifei, is Mu Nuan's cousin, the two are of the same age, since childhood sweethearts, they have already made a marriage contract, and promised each other for life, but who knew that a few days before the wedding date, King Jing Li Xun died violently in the palace.
The sudden change was undoubtedly a painful blow to Mu Nuan, making her unable to accept the facts, she was grief-stricken for a while, washed her face with tears all day long, and committed suicide several times, but fortunately she was found by Yahuan and saved in time.
Since then, Mu Nuan's temperament has changed greatly, she is depressed every day, the whole person is like losing her soul, she has nightmares when she falls asleep, she has lost weight several times in two years, and her body is getting weaker and weaker.
The eldest girl takes care of Mu Nuan every day, and her reaction to her nightmare awakening is no longer strange, she is a little relieved, recently her own girl has been waking up at night less and less, does it mean that her condition has improved "Girl, your clothes are soaked, get up and bathe and change your clothes first, if you get cold, it's not good."
"Hmm."
The water color is familiar with the road, and the girl next to the girl Huanyue Bai made a look, and the two of them left the soft couch with Mu Nuan together, and took the bath behind the colorful silk screen, according to the old rules, the hot water in the bath bucket has already been prepared, and the fragrant pink petals float on the water, and a stick of soothing incense is also lit, and the green smoke is slowly rising.
After bathing and changing, breakfast has been prepared, a cup of pumpkin porridge, a few stacks of delicate side dishes, and a plate of five-color crystal steamed dumplings, bright in color, with proper matching, neatly listed on the table, it seems that people can increase their appetite at a glance.
However, Mu Nuan didn't seem to have much appetite, drank two mouthfuls of pumpkin porridge, took a bite of crystal steamed dumplings, and didn't move anything else.
After eating, rinse your mouth with tea, and then wipe the corners of your mouth with a silk handkerchief.
Removing the meal, Shui Se looked at the almost untouched meal, couldn't help but sigh, and muttered to Yuebai: "Our girl has been getting thinner and thinner recently, but what should I do." ” Yuebai frowned, shook her head slightly, and did not speak.
After breakfast and a short rest, a small servant outside came to pass the word.
Yuebai sent the little maid and entered the house to report to Mu Nuan: "Girl, Madame called you over to sit down." ” Mu Nuan is the only daughter of the Mu Shang family, it is said that the Mu family has five sons, but only one daughter, born like a flower like jade, since childhood, regarded as a treasure, held in the palm of the hand to grow up.
But since the death of King Jing, the only daughter of the Mu family seems to have changed as a person, and since then the door has not been out of the door, and she has been locked in the house all day long, and it is useless to persuade anyone, like when King Jing died, her heart also died.
Mother Xu's love for her daughter is like her life, and it hurts in her eyes and heart, today, she took the initiative to let people pass the word, it should be something important.
"Changing clothes."
Mu Nuan said indifferently and got up.
Shui Se and Yuebai serve closely, both of them grew up with Mu Nuan since childhood, know her preferences, and serve them with all their hearts.
Among them, the eldest girl is slightly older, the same age as Mu Nuan is seventeen, she is small and exquisite, she has a cheerful personality since she was a child, she is clever and smooth, and her sweet mouth is very likable, Yuebai is two years younger than them, she is stronger, her strength is greater, her personality is more quiet and calm, and she is honest and responsible.
Shui Se and Yue Bai glanced at each other, then picked out a set of newly sent autumn clothes from Shui Se, and presented Mu Nuan with both hands: "The girl usually loves orchids, although there are only some flower embellishments in the corners of this piece, the embroidery is particularly exquisite, as if it is heavenly, at a glance, you can know that it is from the hand of the famous Jiang Xiuniang in the capital, the orchid is fragrant, lifelike, it is said that the girl's temperament is like an orchid, which is the most compatible with the girl."
"Just count your sweetness."
Mu Nuan didn't have the heart to choose, the water color has always been right, so she acquiesced.
Yuebai held back a smile beside her: "Sister Shuise, just count you as a sycophant, the girl can't listen to it." ” Shui Se glared at Yuebai: "Shut up, the girl didn't say anything about me, you dare to say it, the wings are stiff, right?"
” "If you want to shut up, it's also Aqua Sister, you first."
"Hey, when are you going to talk back like that?"
"I learned it from my sister," and then listened to the two girls, you and me.
Mu Nuan never stopped it, she felt that it was actually good for them to talk back like this, otherwise this house would be lifeless all day long, and it would be overwhelming, not like a place where people live.
Later, under the service of the two, Mu Nuan changed into the blue and white embroidered orchid embellished satin skirt, combed the hanging hair and divided the Xiao bun, and there was only a silver silk wrapped flower carved white hosta between the hair, the whole person was plain and elegant, the face was not stained with a little fat powder, the skin was so white that there was no blood, and the cyan blood vessels could almost be seen as transparent, and the appearance was a little haggard, but it also revealed a trace of delicate and delicate temperament.
In fact, Mu Nuan used to have a plump body, round and jade, white and translucent skin, delicate and soft facial features, and a beautiful appearance, which is one of the best beauties in the capital.
After changing her clothes, Mu Nuan led Yahuan and went to the Spring Festival Courtyard where her mother Xu was.
At this moment, in the Spring Festival Courtyard, the door is closed, and someone is whispering in the house.
"Madam, it's time to tell Ah Nuan about His Majesty's marriage, how long do you want to hide it," said a deep middle-aged man's voice.
It was already a few days ago to give the marriage, that day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the full moon reunion, the emperor suddenly remembered King Jing who died two years ago, heartbroken, and went to the palace of his biological mother Xu Guifei, thanks to Xu Guifei blowing the wind in his ears all night, the next day, the emperor drafted a holy decree, and married Mu Nuan Xu to Li Wuxuan, the son of Prince Zhao.
However, Mu Zichun took the holy decree and went home, and after telling the Xu family, remembering the experience of saying goodbye to Mu Nuan several times before, the two couples were a little nervous, so they hid it for the time being, and no one was allowed to reveal half of Mu Nuan's words.
I didn't expect that the Zhaowang Mansion was quite satisfied with this royal gift, but in a few days, he found a matchmaker, and sent boxes of gifts to discuss the date of marriage, and he couldn't hide it.

Thinking of this, Xu Shi sighed and frowned: "You don't know our Ah Nuan's stubborn temperament, it has been two years since that incident, but you still refuse to let go" After Li Xun's death, Mu Nuan vowed not to marry in this life, and told her a few family affairs before, she reacted extremely fiercely and was very emotionally unstable, and then Xu did not dare to propose marriage again.
The middle-aged man was Mu Shangshu Mu Zichun, and he was so anxious: "But Your Majesty gives you a marriage, how can you easily refuse it." ” Xu Shi instantly shed tears: "Do you want Ah Nuan to die before you are willing?"
Mu Zichun paused, frowned and sighed: "Madam, a woman always wants to find a good home, how can we take care of her for a lifetime?"
"I'll just keep her by my side for the rest of my life, so what's the matter, it's not that we can't afford to raise this daughter."
Xu Shi rolled her eyes, thinking about her daughter was distressed, she was reluctant to get married, wouldn't it be better to stay by her side for a lifetime.
"People will eventually die, you and I are old, if she returns to the West, who can take care of her" Mu Zichun has always favored his daughter and regarded her as the pearl of her palm, and he was heartbroken when her daughter looked like this, but it was a pity to no avail.
He patted his wife's shoulder and comforted in a deep voice, "Your Majesty's marriage is not trivial, I think there is another hidden secret, we still inform Ah Nuan of this matter, let her decide for herself, if she is still willing to die rather than get married, I just give up this old life and dare to ask Your Majesty to take back his life." ” Xu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, thought for a long time, and couldn't help complaining: "My sister can't settle down."
If it weren't for Concubine Xu Guifei in the palace, how could she have given this marriage.
Mu Zichun didn't want to say anything, but comforted: "The concubine has always loved Ah Nuan, and it should be for the sake of our Ah Nuan." ”gd1806102:
