"Farewell Branch" / Lychee is very sweet in March, Dayin was defeated, and thousands of soldiers were killed and wounded.An urgent report was delivered from the northwest frontier to Beijing, and Wen Shu's face was darker than the ink stains on rice paper.When the ministers met, it was inevitable that some people were fishing in troubled waters and eyeing the military power in his hands, and after two hours, the man's face was really like an ice cellar.The palace people who were on an errand in the imperial study were extra careful, and they couldn't help but breathe lightly at this time, for fear that one would be accidentally blamed and implicated.At this time, the aunt in charge of the Imperial Qiangong sent a life-saving straw.Sheng Quan took the food box in his aunt's hand, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Yang Zhi Manna dispels the fire in her heart, and the Song and Song girls are really the most considerate of the emperor." ”I don't know if it's the nectar to dispel the heart fire, or the person who sent the nectar to dispel the heart fire, in short, Wen Shu lowered his eyes, but his face slowly eased.When he was in the unit, Wen Shu returned from the imperial study, but it was rare to see the figure eating in the main hall.The man frowned slightly, glanced around, and was slightly unaccustomed to it.Isn't she supposed to have dinner at this hour?
Walking to the dormitory again, I saw the crimson figure lying on the windowsill, facing the afterglow of the setting sun, his eyes closed, and sleeping soundly.It seems that he has been standing beside him for a long time, and the girl in the dream has sensed it and slowly opened her eyes.She was stunned for a moment, then the tail of her eyes curved, pointed to the guqin in the corner of the wall, and said, "New, I also learned a new tune and played it to the emperor." ”"Okay."
Listen to the forgiveness.The girl sat on a low wooden bench and placed the guqin on the small table, touching the strings with her fingertips, and the sound of the qin curling.Wen Shu's gaze moved from her face to her hand.The hands were white and slender, and each finger was as soft as a bone.And her hands are really flexible.I can play the piano, write well, do embroidery and soup, and at night, I can do everything.The longer I have known her, the more Wen Shu seems to like her.Probably the well-behaved and unruly nature in her temperament seems to be both ice and fire, which is really unbearable.Suddenly, he interrupted the sound of the piano like gurgling water, "Song Song, come here." ”"Wow-" sounded, the last string tone was elongated, Song Song raised his eyes to look at him, and carried the hem of his skirt over.She sat down in front of him and looked up for him to speak.Wen Shu said: "Don't you ask me, what are you doing at this hour?"
”The woman in front of her shook her head, raised her hand, and rubbed his slightly tighter eyebrows, "I don't like you frowning, isn't the new song good?"
Song Song changed a song, okay?
”Looking at each other, Wen Shu lowered his head and pecked her lips, then rested his chin on the girl's shoulder and neck.His rare tiredness and fragility couldn't help but make people stunned, and Song Song gently stroked his back with one hand.Immediately after, she felt the two arms on her waist tighten, and it hurt her a little to hug her."
Song Song."
Wen Shu called her softly.The girl tilted her neck.I heard the deep voice say slowly: "You accompany me." ”He said, "Song Song, you accompany me." ”Under pressure from all sides, the palace she was in was the only place where he could catch his breath.- On the sixth day of the sixth month of June, the Ministry of Internal Affairs purchased a new brocade and jewelry and sent it to the Imperial Palace.The specifications are all made according to the concubine position.The father-in-law in charge took out the books that recorded the palaces and handed them over: "Miss Song Song, this autumn, the mourning period of the Queen Mother has passed, and the emperor ordered the servants to choose a few nearby palaces, so that you can choose the one you like to live." ”The girl was stunned for a moment, and this moment fell in the eyes of the father-in-law, and she was overjoyed.The father-in-law hurriedly said: "If nothing else, the winter girl can be canonized, and then the old slave will be called a mother!"
”"Really?
Thank you father-in-law. ”Song Song smiled and beckoned Mingyue to send him out of the palace.The girl got up and walked around the Imperial Palace, frowning slightly.If she is sealed, she will have to live in another palace, and she would rather live in the Yuqian Palace without a name and no points.At night, she complained to Wen Shu about this matter, the man hugged her and laughed lowly, kissed her ear, and said, "Then Huihuaxuan, it's only a few steps away from the Imperial Palace, I'll accompany you every night, okay?"
”With a teasing smile in his words, knowing that he was being laughed at, Song Song was stunned for a moment, put on a serious look, and said, "That's not necessary." ”She snapped her fingers, "In a month, the emperor can come up fifteen times." ”"Song Song, it's only the thirtieth day of January, I have a lot of concubines in this harem, are you greedy?"
Two laughs escaped from the corners of the man's mouth.As a result, he was poked twice in the chest by his elbow.The girl said, "Then you go to someone else's." ”After a few more words, the two of them stopped and fell asleep honestly with their eyes closed.- On June 26, the last line of defense in the northwest was routed.In less than a month, from 30 May to 26 June, the Great Yin Dynasty suffered a rapid and tragic defeat.The leading Fengzhu general Bai also entered Beijing to receive the punishment, kneeling in the imperial study with red eyes.There were more than 3,000 soldiers who were damaged.Wen Shu closed his eyes heavily, put one hand on his temple, Sheng Quan saw it, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, do you want to declare the imperial doctor?"
”The man shook his head and said to Bai Yi, "You go down first." ”Before leaving, Bai Yi paused, turned around and knelt down again, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, if it weren't for the enemy's arson of grain and grass this time, and they were caught off guard on the two roads that must be passed, it really wouldn't be like this, and they know the situation of our army well, and they know when to advance and when to retreat, which is really incredible." ”"What do you mean by that?"
Wen Shu narrowed his eyes.Bai Yi hesitated for a moment, raised his head and said: "The military defense map, there are two copies, one is in the hands of Wei Chen, and the other is in the hands of the emperor. ”The man's fingers on his knees curled up slightly, and he sneered: "Could it be me?"
”Bai Yi frowned, that naturally didn't mean that.Half loud, I can't say why, Bai Ye had to retreat first.On the path, a yellow-clothed palace maid stopped him.The goddess of the small palace was flustered, and she stammered when she spoke, and said: "Great, general, the slave maid is Bi'e, the palace maid of the Imperial Palace." ”Bai Yi glanced at her a little impatiently.Bi Yu glanced around, and whispered: "The general has great achievements, and he is my famous god of war, as we all know, the general has never lost a battle." ”When the words fell, Bai Yi's face was really embarrassed.I also heard the righteous words of the little palace maid: "Someone must be obstructing it and collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country." ”Bai Yi's face turned pale, "You can't say this nonsense, be careful that your emperor wants your head." ”Bi'e's heart "banged", sneaked her head out, and put one hand to her mouth.Seeing that there were people on the path, Bi'e hurriedly stood up straight.She nervously tightened her sleeves and stumbled, "What the slave said is true. ”Bai Yi was silent for a while, and brushed his sleeves away.At this time, in the imperial study, Wen Shu sat quietly for a long time, Yu Er got up, put one hand on the edge of the table, swept around, and finally looked straight on a dark grid somewhere.It was quiet all around, and after about a quarter of an hour, he sat back in his chair, closed his eyes with a headache, and suddenly a picture flashed in his mind—the silence of the long night, the breeze blowing through the window.The girl closed her eyes and fell into a dream, a tear trail slipped through the tail of her eyes, and she called in a low voice: "Dad, mother......"
There are still a few words, but I didn't hear clearly.The man came back to his senses suddenly, frowned, and said sideways: "You said, Song Song used to sell his family to Ya Pozi and transfer to Hongshaoyuan?"
”I didn't know how to ask about this matter, Sheng Quan reacted for a while, and then responded: "Yes, Yu Niang sent someone to investigate, the girl from a small merchant family in Jinzhou, her family's business was ruined, and she owed a lot of debts, no, it hurt the Song Song girl." ”With that, Sheng Quan shook his head.As if he hadn't said it yet, he said: "I heard that when the Song family sold their daughter, the Song Song girl also committed suicide by jumping into the lake, but fortunately, she asked someone to fish it out of the lake, but the family has no heart, the biological girl, she said that she sold it, and the Song Song girl was also miserable......
"Wen Shu jumped between the knuckles in front of the case, and she committed suicide by jumping into the lake, which should be hatred to the bone, but the look of her crying father and mother at night was clearly thoughtful......
How will?
The man sat in silence for two hours, and the sky suddenly darkened.Wen Shu looked up at the window and said, "Drive and go back to the palace." ”It's night.The sound of humming and begging for mercy overflowed the window, and the cicadas chirped to play the summer night.Wen Shu gasped low, propped himself on either side of her arms, and looked down at her.Song Song was inexplicably looked at by him, and poked him for some reason, "What's wrong?"
”The man leaned over and a fine, dense kiss landed on her face, all the way down her chin, biting her little ear.He said in a dumb voice, "Song Song." ”"Huh?"
She answered."
Have you ever lied to me?"
In an instant, even the gloomy air stopped flowing, and the distracted person suddenly came to his senses and raised his eyes to look at her.She blinked, and a smile suddenly appeared on her lips, "What if there is?"
”"If there is," Wen Shu smiled, rubbed the side of her face with his palm, and said, "It's still too late to say now, Song Song, don't make me angry." ”Don't make me angry Song Song, Wen Shu said in his heart.The corners of the girl's mouth stiffened slightly, and the sudden rise of speculation caused her blood to freeze all over her body, and the soles of her feet were a little cold.In the middle of the four eyes, the curvature of the corners of Song Song's mouth rose by two points."
Then I said, don't punish me."
Wen Shu bowed: "Okay." ”Just had sex, the girl's voice was still slimy, and she said slowly: "Last month, Concubine Yao went to the imperial study to send almond soup to the emperor, that day, I was not sick, I pretended." ”Wen Shu paused, and his heart sank to the bottom.He stroked her jet-black hair with a smile, "Why?"
”"It's probably a taste."
She said so, the man said "um" in a low voice, hugged her and kissed her twice, and in this way, the long night went back to peace.- On the first day of the seventh month, the sun was in full bloom through the dense shade of the trees, and the faintly broken light fell under the eaves, and a group of palace people stood outside the door, hanging their heads, and their hearts hung high.Bai also asked for a meeting with a group of generals outside the imperial study.I don't know what it said, but I heard the "crackling" tea cup swept to the ground and shattered into several petals.The man's voice was as low as the spring water in a cave, and the cold penetrated his heart and lungs.He said, "No." ”...
