a pillow in autumn

A servant came to report that Sun Qi, the granddaughter of the grand master's mansion, had arrived at Yimen. Seeing that Princess Rui seemed to be still in deep thought, the servant did not dare to exercise power, so he just knelt down in the hall, and it took a long time before he heard the princess say, "Please come to Treading Water." Please wait a moment."

"Master." Shuyao suddenly said: "It's windy today, the Tashui Pavilion is surrounded by water, I'm afraid the wind will be strong, why don't you ask Miss Sun to move to Lingxiang Garden?"

Lingxiang Garden is a small three-story building in the back residence of the Prince's Mansion, with a wooden and stone structure. It is prepared for Yuanzheng and Huawan to study and practice calligraphy when they are older, but it is cleaned every day.

Shen Xianxun's heart was in turmoil, there was nothing to do, so she made arrangements with her.

When the little girl led Sun Qi into Lingxiang Garden, Shen Xianxun stood in the room with his back to the door, and turned around when he heard the sound.

Sun Qi stepped forward, bent her knees, and saluted.Shen Xianxun took a deep breath and said in a gentle voice, "Get up."

Because this room is to be used as a study room, the window panes are ingeniously opened, and the patterns are not complicated.The sun shines in from the window, illuminating the room brightly.

Sun Qi got up slowly and got closer, seeing the haggard blue circle under Shen Xianxun's eyes, which did not affect her exquisite jade-like face in the slightest.

The girls' footsteps gradually drifted away and became silent, which reflected Sun Qi's heart pounding, like when she was naughty and broke her father's glass cup when she was a child, thinking about how to hide it so that she would not be punished, she felt anxious.

For a while, no one in the room spoke.

In the end, Sun Qi couldn't bear the pressure of such silence, and said, "Sister, have you thought about Qi'er's proposal?"

In the center of the room was a table made of rosewood wood and inlaid with mica stone. On the table was a pot of tea, and beside the tea pot were two small celadon cups. Shen Xianxun's hand on the edge of the table moved almost invisibly.

"Miss Sun." She said, "Do you like Prince Rui?"

"Of course I like it."

"How much do you like it?"

How much do you like it?Sun Qi was slightly startled, and asked herself.

The first time I met Prince Rui was two years ago, when Rui Guo's army defeated the Tu tribe in the west, regained Quyang City, and drove the Tu soldiers out of the country for hundreds of miles.The army was victorious, and the troops returned to the court, and the people in Ruijing cheered thunderously.Following the emperor's oral order, the prince led all the officials out of the city gate to welcome the returning soldiers.Grandpa is the grand master of the court, so naturally he will go with the prince, when, where, and where the army will go, all have become matters that have been carefully considered and finalized.

In the early summer when the flowers were blowing and the willows were blooming, Sun Qi and her cousin met for a small gathering in the Wenyuan Building outside the Twelve Squares. When they entered the building, they met several other ladies from the official family as expected.At that time, she was only 14 years old, sitting in front of the balcony window with her cousin, listening to the laughter and noise in her ears, laughing in her heart that they were in love with the secular world.

The army of the Rui Kingdom passed by in front of the Twelve Squares, and the young man in the front rode with His Royal Highness the Prince, dressed in white robes and silver armor, as bright as jade.

As if everything in the world has become the background of mountains and rivers, Sun Qi's heart was moved almost instantly.Holding half a cup of tea in her hand, the voices around her faded away. She looked at her fixedly and walked by not far away. It turned out that when she met the destined person, she would fall into the mundane world just like everyone else.

She thought about it for a long time, and Shen Xianxun didn't press her to ask, until she lowered her eyebrows and said quietly: "I like it very much."

Shen Xianxun remained silent, and Sun Qi said: "I like her so much that every time I see her, I feel that a hundred flowers are in full bloom. Every time I dream of her, I don't want to wake up. I like her so much that even...even if I know her identity, I still don't want to wake up." I am willing to give up my children and grandchildren, give up the famous family, and have the cheek to ask for both." She said as she shed tears in a daze, and looked at Shen Xianxun with her eyes blindfolded: "Sister, what about you? like her so much."

Xian Xun didn't answer, but looked back at her and said: "If you like her so much, why do you want to destroy her?"

"Because I don't want to get it!" Sun Qi still had tears on her face, but the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she smiled softly, "Sister, let me tell you a story. I have a second mother who gave birth to a younger brother. When I was young, Dad I got a glass cup, it was very beautiful, I wanted it, and my brother wanted it too. I was young at the time, but I already knew that my father always favored my brother, and sure enough, he gave the glass cup to my brother. My brother happily took it back to the room Go. A few days later, there was a gust of wind, which happened to blow down the cup on the edge of the window. When my younger brother returned to the room, he saw that the colored glaze had been smashed to pieces. My younger brother said that he clearly put the cup well. How could it be blown down by the wind. Daddy didn't believe it, so he shut his younger brother in the ancestral hall. Sister Shen, do you know why that cup broke." Sun Qi's eyes were dry, her eye circles were still red, and a smile spread from the corner of her mouth Lai: "If you can't get it, destroy it. Burning jade and stone together is the best way I can think of."

Under the corridor outside Lingxiang Garden, Siyuan leaned on the half-height railing, looked at Shuyao beside him, and hesitated to speak.The irises in the atrium bloomed light blue, pink and purple. Although Shuyao didn't look at her, she squeezed her palm as if she knew what was on her mind and said, "Don't worry."

Siyuan leaned close to her, put his head on her shoulder, and replied muffledly, "Yes."

A billowing thunder passed across the sky, and within a short while it began to rain.The sound of pattering rain trickled down from the eaves and knocked on the window panes.

Shen Xianxun looked at the cloud of water vapor coming out of the window, and said lightly: "I have been thinking all night, is there any way to dispel your thoughts."

"Have you figured it out yet?" Sun Qi tilted her head, pouted her small mouth, and seemed to have no plans.

Xian Xun said in a low voice: "I can't think of it. It's just that Sun Qi, have you ever thought that even if you marry into Prince Rui's residence, Prince Rui will probably never want to see you for the rest of your life. Are you happy now?"

"Sister, these are Qi'er's own affairs. As long as you don't stop me, I believe that one day she will accept me and fall in love with me." Sun Qi raised her face and smiled, "Now, I just want my sister to say something. I want to marry Prince Rui, you may not allow it."

Shen Xianxun was two or three steps away from her, looking at her youthful face, she was speechless for a long time.

Sun Qi approached a few minutes, and was already beside her, her voice was clear and agile: "I married into Prince Rui's residence, but as a side concubine. You are still Princess Rui. Since I am her person, I will be happy with her Together, her secret will be kept in my heart for the rest of my life. So, isn't it good..."

As the rain became heavier and the wind became louder, Shen Xianxun shook like a glass cup blown by the wind.

"Are you serious, will you keep this secret?" She bit her lip, tears filled her eyes.

"I……"

Before Sun Qi could finish speaking, another voice sounded from the side.

"What secret? Can the lonely king listen to it together?" There was no door in the main hall of Lingxiang Garden, and Zhou Mubai walked out of the inner hall step by step.

Both Shen Xianxun and Sun Qi were stunned.

Zhou Mubai glanced at them, and said with a faint smile: "Miss Sun, you said just now that you want to burn all the secrets? Could it be... the lonely king is a woman, right?"

A spring thunder suddenly exploded, and Sun Qi's face turned pale with shock.She pursed her lips and looked at the tall and handsome Prince Rui. She was still as handsome as when she first met two years ago, but her eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, staring at her coldly. People are frozen to the bone.

Seeing that neither of them spoke, Zhou Mubai lifted up his robe and sat down at the red sandalwood table, and poured a cup of tea by himself, the soup was clear and the water was only seven minutes old.

"Miss Sun, from what you said just now, I think you already know the identity of the lonely king. Since that's the case, hasn't Miss Sun ever wondered where the two children of the lonely king came from?"

Sun Qi bit her lips with blood marks, but she still couldn't stop her heartbeat, she tried her best to gather herself and said: "I heard from the empress dowager that the young lady of Prince Rui's residence is the blood of Prince Bao."

"What about Zheng'er?" Zhou Mubai said with a smile, "Did Queen Mother tell you whose child Zheng'er is?"

Sun Qi held the silk handkerchief in one hand and shook her head.

Zhou Mubai said: "Then I might as well tell you. Zheng'er is not my own. Only Your Majesty knows who his biological parents are. Guess again, does Your Majesty know the identity of the lonely king?"

Sun Qi's face turned paler in an instant.Zhou Mubai smirked: "Only His Majesty, me, and the princess knew about this matter. Now there is one more you. But I'm afraid His Majesty doesn't want others to know that much. So... the Sun family is full of families, and it's only at the moment of Miss's thought." .”

"You!" Sun Qi took a step back in embarrassment, raised her eyes and looked at Zhou Mubai. Before, she only thought that she was gentle and elegant, like a jade, but she was so cruel and cold as frost.Sun Qi smiled wryly and said: "Your Highness, Qi'er is only yearning for you, why do you persecute Qi'er like this?"

"Really." Zhou Mubai put down the small porcelain cup and looked at her with frown, still looking so good-looking, but the words he said casually hurt people's hearts, "How did the lonely king hear that, you are the one who forced the lonely king Concubine, keep asking her to promise you something. The lonely king hates her being wronged the most. Back then, the generals of the Tu tribe wanted to bully her, you know..." Her voice paused, and she said word by word: "The lonely king , and ended Tu Jiang’s life with his own hands.”

Sun Qi was forced to take another step back by her gaze, tears streaming down her face.

Zhou Mubai said loudly: "Come here!" After Shuyao and Siyuan pushed the door in, she continued: "See off the guests."

Shuyao walked up to Sun Qi and made a "please" gesture, Sun Qi didn't look at her, just grabbed the lapel of her chest with one hand, tears fell faster, she looked at Zhou Mubai fixedly, like two years In front of her, she was sitting on the railing, and it was the first time she saw her riding a horse past Twelve Squares.

"Your Highness." She said mournfully, "I just want to be your side concubine, even if it's just your concubine. Is that okay?"

Zhou Mubai's face was also a little moved, she got up from the chair, looked at her and said: "Miss can afford a better husband. Mu Bai hopes that Miss Sun will be able to match a good son-in-law and have a family full of children and grandchildren." The coldness in her eyes receded, With a slight smile, it was that gentle Prince Rui again.

The thunder faded away, and the rain was still wet, Siyuan took an oil-paper umbrella and accompanied Shuyao to send Miss Sun out of the house.

The door of Lingxiang Garden was open, and Zhou Mubai walked out.

Shen Xianxun has been watching silently, until then, he said: "Mu Bai..."

Mu Bai didn't look back, Xian Xun took a step after her, and only then heard her say: "Just now, do you want to surrender me?"

The cold wind picked up again in the courtyard, and the rain became heavy.Zhou Mubai dusted off his robe and walked out.
