Remembrance Hibiscus GL

The morning sun is slightly dew, the mist is rippling, and the valley seems to be covered with a layer of veil. After a while, a round of red sun bursts out from the peak, sprinkles thousands of golden lights, dispels the slightest chill, and wipes the majestic and majestic palace. Bright warm colors.

Luying kept Gao Xian's words in mind, she hardly closed her eyes all night, but there was no movement in the tent, and she didn't see Binglun asking for tea or water. In the early hours of the morning, her eyelids became heavy and she was really sleepy. She gritted her teeth and tried her best to support herself. Suddenly, a slight sound came through her ears, she was terrified all over, raised her eyelids to look, and found that Binglun had woken up at some point, was sitting on the edge of the bed with one hand on the curtain, she hurriedly got up and walked in front of her. Kneeling at her feet, waiting for her to put on her shoes, Binglun stared at her blankly, suddenly leaned over slightly, and grabbed her hand.

"Queen..." Lu Ying trembled nervously, thinking that she had done something wrong, she couldn't help but look up.

Binglun's expression was exhausted, as if she hadn't slept all night, her pair of phoenix eyes stared fixedly at her beautiful face, which seemed to be burning with hot flames, and seemed to be full of unspeakable pain, the color of her eyes was changing, The strength in the hand gradually increased unconsciously.

Lu Ying was extremely panicked, and suddenly realized that it was very rude of her to look at the Empress Dowager like this, she hurriedly lowered her head again, her voice changed in fright: "Empress Dowager, slaves have been in the palace for a long time, and don't understand the rules. ..."

Binglun let out a sigh of relief, and finally let go of her slowly: "You don't have to do these things, you tell them to come in."

"Yes."

Lu Ying felt a little relieved and got up to leave, but Binglun said: "Wait a minute." Lu Ying hurriedly stood with her head down, waiting to hear her orders. After a long time, she only heard her say: "You don't have to be on errand in the morning, go back Take a break."

Lu Ying was both surprised and surprised, she didn't know whether to go out to call someone, or knelt down to thank Grace, she just stood there in a daze.

Binglun slowly closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her face had returned to her usual calm and indifferent face, there was no emotion in her dark eyes, and even a little fatigue disappeared instantly, she pursed her lips , said lightly: "Go."

Lian Zhen rode the horse for a few laps, her forehead was covered with sweat, and her face was even more flushed. She was so charming and charming that it was hard to describe.The eunuch of Yumasi stepped forward to hold the horse, and carefully helped her down, Baozhen hurriedly handed over a handkerchief, Lianzhen took it and wiped off her sweat, and said: "Come here today, come back tomorrow." After finishing speaking, she turned around, At this time, the red dragon horse regarded her as his master, and he seemed reluctant to part with her, so he stepped forward and gently rubbed her soft palm with his cheek.

Lian Zhen loved it like a treasure, and after being intimate with it for a while, she said to the head eunuch of Yu Masi: "You take it back to the stable, remember to take good care of it, and don't be negligent."

The eunuch respectfully replied: "Yes."

Baozhen said without losing the opportunity: "Seeing that the master's riding skills are improving day by day, the Empress Dowager is relieved. I haven't come to the Martial Hall for the past two days. After a while, the master will be able to ride horses in the garden."

"There are a bunch of people waiting for you when you get on and off the horse. When you ride a horse, there are people following you. This is called riding skills!" Lian Zhen was funny, but also helpless: "Besides, how many government affairs does the Queen Mother have to do every day? Come and see me every day."

Baozhen laughed and said: "Anyway, the servant feels that the master is riding on the horse, and he is majestic and airy, not to mention how beautiful that demeanor is."

Lianzhen smiled and said nothing, secretly thinking about how long she would have to practice before she could control the horse freely, and then she could take Binglun to take her out, imagining the scene of the two walking side by side, she couldn't help being fascinated, Baozhen was in Bypass: "Master, what are you laughing at? This slave girl's words are not flattery, they are words from the heart."

Seeing that she was in a hurry, Lianzhen smiled and said, "Well, even if you are not flattering, let's go."

Back in the Chenxiang Palace, the maidservant had prepared the fragrant soup, Lianzhen changed into a lake-colored dress before sitting down on the chair after taking a bath, Hengbo stepped forward and replied: "Master, the Queen Mother has rewarded some pearls today, and sent them away Manager Wang sent it over."

"pearl?"

Hengbo turned around to signal, and two young court ladies came in with lotus-leaf-shaped emerald plates in their hands, and knelt down in front of Lian Zhen, while the other two walked up to them with a heavy yellow silk bag in their arms, and wrapped the mouth of the bag Untie it, and lift it upside down slightly, only to hear the soft and crisp sound of "ding ding dong dong" endlessly, hundreds of pearls pour out, each of which is the size of a bird's egg, round and flawless, shining with a warm and soft light .

Although Lian Zhen was used to rare treasures, she also felt that these many pearls with the same color and luster and size were rare. She looked surprised, and while grabbing a handful with her hands for a closer look, she asked: "Where are these pearls?" here?"

Hengbo said: "It was said that it was sent by some official in Qingping County, but the slaves didn't ask carefully."

Guangle Palace is within the boundaries of Youzhou. Since the Queen Mother and the Emperor entered the palace, officials from all counties in Youzhou have tried their best to present gifts. Qingping County is also a county in Youzhou.Lian Zhen felt even more strange after hearing this: "The Empress Dowager never likes gifts from officials. It's a rule during Chinese New Year, festivals and birthdays. Why is there an exception today?"

Hengbo said with a smile: "I don't know about this servant, but I heard from Director Wang that the Queen Mother only glanced at the gift list before ordering them to be put away, saying that the front-line war is still ongoing and can be used as military pay. Te Teer picked out the bag of pearls, looked at it for a while, and then ordered Director Wang to deliver it in person, saying that it will be used for the master to decorate jewelry or clothes in the future."

It can be said that there are very few women in the world who don't love pearls, not to mention it is a gift from a sweetheart. Lian is really happy and sweet, but she doesn't show it on her face, she just tells: "Put it away."

"Yes."

Lian really remembered something, and said again: "While I'm not around, can you reward Wang Youxing for me?"

Hengbo replied: "The servant girl gave him a handful of golden melon seeds, but he said that no matter what, he would not dare to accept the reward from the master. In the end, the servant girl forced it to him, and he accepted it gratefully."

Lian Zhen nodded and said nothing, Heng Bo suddenly laughed again: "I heard that a new palace maid has arrived beside the Empress Dowager, and the servant just asked about Mr. Wang."

Lian was really drinking tea, and couldn't help asking, "What new maid?"

Hengbo laughed and said: "It's a palace maid. Director Wang praised her very much, saying that she is cute and smart, and her appearance is outstanding. She was lucky in no time, and she was elected to the Queen Mother's side as soon as she was elected."

In normal times, Lianzhen doesn't pay attention to these small things, but her heart is attached to Binglun, and she can't help but pay more attention to everything related to her, and immediately asked: "What did you choose to do? "

"It seems to be serving tea."

There are many palace maids around Binglun, some are in charge of etiquette, some are in charge of clothing and jewelry, or food, sleeping, washing, etc. They are divided into different levels and perform their duties. , is the most favored and has the most status. In the past, only Qinzhu and Shutong could take on these two responsibilities. After they were alienated and sent to Qingquan Palace, Binglun no longer asked anyone to stay overnight in the palace , and the fine work of serving tea and water was also handed over to Gao Xian, the chief eunuch of the confidant.So hearing what Hengbo said, Lianzhen was greatly surprised, and slowly put down the teacup in her hand, thinking silently.

Yifang came up to ask for instructions: "Master, it's time for lunch, do you want to deliver the meal now?"

But Lian Zhen raised her head and smiled slightly: "After you said that, even I became curious about that maid."

When Wang Youxing came back from Lianzhen's place, he saw Gao Xian holding a white rhinoceros stag quietly waiting on the porch, while the rest of the waiters were lined up like puppets under the white marble steps, standing with their hands down, so he knew that the Empress Dowager might be there. While discussing government affairs with the courtiers, he walked up the steps and greeted him with a smile on his face: "Master."

Gao Xian was thinking about the two things of Binglun rewarding Lianzhen Pearl and letting Luying go back to the place to rest, trying to figure out Binglun's thoughts, when he called him, he calmed down: "You are back." Xiang Li pouted: " Mr. Yang and several other adults are inside, you wait a while before going in to answer."

"Yes." Wang Youxing hurriedly stood still under him, and then whispered: "Master, you have been standing here for a long time, are you thirsty? How about I pour you a bowl of tea?"

"Monkey bastards have filial piety." Gao Xian looked at the apprentice he had single-handedly trained, and said with a smile, "I'm still thirsty for a while, why don't you stand here for me."

Just as she was talking, she suddenly saw Lu Ying coming from the corridor on the right, and hurriedly said to Wang Youxing: "You wait here." She walked towards Lu Ying and said, "Isn't the Queen Mother Enzhun taking a rest this morning? Why are you here at this time?" coming?"

Lu Ying's mind was mixed, she stayed in the room for a long while, but she couldn't fall asleep for a moment, when she heard him ask, she bowed her knees and gave a salute, and said softly: "Although it is the empress dowager's grace, but the servants are serving by the empress dowager's side, instead It's more reassuring."

A satisfied smile appeared on Gao Xian's face, he looked around, and said in a low voice, "You were on duty for the first time yesterday... Did the Queen Mother sleep soundly?"

Lu Ying said truthfully: "I don't know, probably... probably slept well."

Gao Xian frowned slightly: "What is unclear?"

"The servant did not dare to slack in the slightest throughout the night, paying attention to the Queen Mother's movements, but it was very quiet last night. The Queen Mother did not wake up at night, nor did she give any orders. The servant thought that she should have slept peacefully."

Gao Xian was slightly surprised, thought for a while, and then said: "I see, you don't need to go in for now, just wait here with me."

The eight glazed palace lanterns are shining brightly and colorfully, and there are also twelve giant candles burning on both sides of the big red sandalwood case, illuminating the inside of the hall like daytime.Ambergris is burning in the copper gilt censer with dragon pattern on the ground, and the heating is mixed with the aroma, which makes people feel a kind of soft and crisp warmth.

After Lu Ying finished cutting the candle flowers, the dessert room brought sweet-scented osmanthus milk cheese and a few pastries. She took them out of the food box one by one and carefully placed them on the right side of the red sandalwood case. Feeling, Lu Ying held her breath, for fear of disturbing her.After a while, Binglun suddenly looked sideways at her: "You ate this cheese."

Lu Ying was stunned for a moment before she understood, both startled and fearful: "I don't dare."

Binglun continued to read the memorial, with a calm tone: "I told you to eat, you just eat." Lu Ying hesitated for a while, and could only say: "Thank you... Thank you, Queen Mother, for the reward." With trembling fingers, she took the porcelain cup in hand.

The cheese is delicate and tender, it melts in the mouth, with a faint milky aroma and a faint scent of osmanthus, it is extremely delicious, but at this time and this place, how can Lu Ying have the heart to taste it carefully, she took a spoon, took a sip After taking a small bite, he knelt down to thank him, and then stood up again.

After reading the memorial, Bing Lun put the vermilion pen on the pen stand, and took out another purple pen for use from the jasper pine and crane painting pen holder. Lu Ying heard Gao Xian say that the Empress Dowager often had to copy scriptures for a while at night, so she hurried forward Come, pick up a piece of royal emblem ink with slender fingers, and take off the inkstone cover. After a while, the ink in the inkstone gradually becomes thicker, and the fragrance of the ink is refreshing.

Binglun stared blankly at the ink ingot spinning gently, and suddenly recalled that when he was at home, he often sat in front of the window-facing huanghuali wood desk to write. People are distracted, and whenever this happens, a hand stretches out in front, shaking from side to side.

She smiled sideways: "I've heard footsteps a long time ago, even if I didn't hear them, I can still smell the fragrance."

"People don't like to use incense, how can there be any fragrance." She wrinkled her lovely nose slightly, raised her white wrist, and held the ink ingot with her clean jade hand, grinding it carefully in the inkstone.

"Why is there no fragrance? You are born with a quiet and elegant fragrance, which smells better than floral, fruity, and incense, and any fragrance in the world." She leaned closer to her, sniffed left and right like a puppy, and said: "Serving pen and ink is what little girls do, why do you always say you don't listen?"

"Just treat me like a little girl."

She stood up from the chair, put her arms around her slender waist, and lightly rubbed her chin on her shoulder: "That's impossible, you are the cousin of the general's mansion, you have a distinguished status."

"I'd love to be your little girl."

"why?"

"In that case, my fate can be controlled by you." She drooped her pink neck, sighed faintly, and her voice gradually became inaudible: "I can always be by your side."

Like a handful of salt sprinkled on the most fragile and tender wound in her heart, the pain was unbearable in an instant. She suddenly put down the pen, and the sudden light sound made Lu Ying raise her head and stare. Under the bright light, the Queen Mother's expression Pale as snow, eyes mournful as death, Lu Ying was at a loss, and softly called: "Queen."

Binglun stared at her blankly, this face was too similar to her, but she was not her, why wasn't she her?How wonderful it would be if it was her. . . . . .Endless pain surged from the bottom of her heart, and sorrow swept in like a tide. She called out a name in her heart over and over again in a low, painful way. After calling a hundred times, she finally couldn't help but say: " Wan'er."

Her voice was slightly hoarse, and Lu Ying couldn't hear clearly: "Queen Mother, who are you calling?" She was full of anxiety: "You... Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to summon her?" Physician?"

Binglun shook his head slightly, his pretty brows frowned, and he leaned weakly on the chair, while Lu Ying was not knowing what to do, Gao Xian suddenly lifted the curtain and hurried in, walked to the case, bowed his head and said: "Queen Mother, Master Chen is out. ask to see."
