Red Mansion: He Doesn't Want to Bend

Concubine Xian, supported by Murong Yongkuan, sat on an embroidered stool in front of the soft couch.Bringing the flute to bring tea, she held the tea and said softly: "Go and see Mrs. Zhou, since the last time... Mrs. Zhou's body has been weakening day by day. Last night, it was probably because I was hurt when I was visiting relatives. After returning to the palace It burned hotly. He insisted on going to greet the empress, but he couldn't hold it back when he returned to Liufang Palace. Wu Guifei called for the imperial doctor, the empress gave the medicine, and the concubines also went to have a look. "

Since Zhou Guiren lost his child, Murong Yongkuan only went to see Zhou Guiren once.It seemed that the child had taken away all the energy and energy from Zhou Guiren, even if the medicine was cured day by day, it could not heal her injured lungs.Murong Yongkuan saw that she was haggard and no longer as agile and beautiful as before, so he never thought of her again.One is because he didn't care much at first, and the other is that when he sees her, he wants to think of the unborn emperor's heir, so it's better to disappear.

Murong Yongkuan didn't spend much time in the harem, but he really didn't know that Zhou Guiren's body was so poor.He rubbed his fingers and asked casually, "Since you went to see her, how is she doing now?"

"It's all right, it's just that the spirit is really bad. The concubine persuaded her to go out and walk around from time to time, but she was always carrying around the house when she was not sick. Only the nobleman Zhou couldn't mention it. Get excited..." Why is it that you just can't get excited, Zhou Guiren lost his child and lost his holy favor, and he has no hope for the future.

"It's a sad thing for her to lose her child, but she shouldn't be so self-deprecating. A concubine should always do her own duty, but she regrets too much, which is really wrong."

Concubine Xian paused her hands and said with a smile: "Don't mention these things, the emperor came to see concubines just to talk about other people?"

Only then did Murong Yongkuan show a smile, and said: "Of course not." After speaking, he stretched out his hand to take her and pulled her to the soft couch, and said with a smile: "Of course I came to Yanqing Palace because I missed you."

Concubine Xian was extremely submissive and allowed him to move.Lying halfway on the soft couch, she watched him lean down with a smile, and reached out to untie his belt.

Zhang Huaxian and Baoqin and others retreated quietly, waved away the palace people waiting outside, only Zhang Huaxian led two servants, and Baoqin led two maidservants to guard outside the door.

After making a fuss two or three times, the commotion inside gradually stopped.

Concubine Xian called for water inside, held the qin and played Ming Sheng, and went in to serve her before helping her to lie down on the bed.At this time, Murong Yongkuan had also washed his body, and lay down on the bed with only a snow-colored jacket.

Murong Yongkuan looked at Concubine Xian's face similar to that person's, and felt tenderness in his heart for no reason.Stretching out his hand to hug her, he said in a low voice: "Your father is in Beijing now, and it sounds like he has a good reputation. Everyone praises him for being upright and honest."

Concubine Xian's heart skipped a beat, because concubines are not allowed to engage in politics, Murong Yongkuan never mentioned political affairs to her.Although she is talking about her father now, after all, she has been involved in foreign affairs.She speculated and said: "The concubine and concubine don't know what to say about my father outside. Only at home, because my father has always been strict and upright, the younger brother is most afraid of him..."

Know that she is cautious, even if she knows, she will not say unnecessary words.Murong Yongkuan put the words aside, didn't ask any more questions, just hugged her tighter, and whispered: "I didn't sleep all night last night, I'm very tired, sleep with me for a while."

The two hugged each other and went to sleep. The rest is for later, so I won't mention it for now.

But Lin Jue hurried to Shoukang Palace to pick up Lin Daiyu back home.After waiting for a moment outside the inner court wall, an aunt came out and replied: "The Empress Dowager is paying her respects to the Buddha, and she has no time to spare, so I told Uncle Lin not to go in to pay her respects, but just go outside to pay respects."

Lin Jue bowed towards the east side of the gate, straightened up, and asked her, "Auntie, I don't know my sister..."

"The owner of Fushou County just ate a little bit for a while, and he will be fine after a while. Now he is resting with the girl from the Xue family in the Xinuang Pavilion. I would like to ask Mr. Lin to wait for a while. I have ordered someone to answer the question later. just come out."

Lin Jue retreated to the side, and after a while, she saw a few maidservants coming out with two girls in their arms.It is Lin Daiyu who wears a light blue orchid-grass-patterned double-breasted skirt at the front, and Xue Baochai who wears a cross-collared skirt with a honey-colored group blessing pattern a little behind.

Probably because he is a foreigner, Xue Baochai half-hid his face with a round fan, only revealing his delicate eyebrows and eyes.

After Lin Daiyu had spoken to Lin Jue, Xue Baochai stepped forward, bowed her knees modestly, and said, "Brother Lin, hello."

Lin Jue also saluted her back and said, "Hello, Sister Xue."

The three of them got into their sedan chairs and changed carriages at the gate of the palace.

Lin Jue and Lin Daiyu were in the same car, and Xue Baochai was in the other.After sending Xue Baochai back to the mansion, Lin Daiyu looked at Lin Jue for a moment, and then said: "Brother is not happy to see it today."

"Entering the palace today, I'm a little tired." Seeing that her face has become more and more radiant recently, Lin Jue wanted to pinch her, but then remembered that the girl is already seven years old, and he has already reached the crown. Even if he is a brother and sister, It's not good to be extra close, so I can only stop thinking. "I haven't asked you yet, why did you eat so badly in Shoukang Palace again?"

Lin Daiyu has a cautious temperament, even though the Empress Dowager treats her very lovingly, she cannot be made to be so presumptuous.

But Daiyu looked puzzled: "Why did I eat too much? I just played Shuanglu with Sister Bao in Xinuang Pavilion, but Aunt Tongyi came in and told us that my brother is here and wants to take me home. Hurry up with Qiaobao My sister is going home too, so she came out together. There is no such thing as eating too much."

There are actually two statements?Lin Jue seemed to reach the tip of the iceberg, but it made his heart jump.Together with Daiyu into the Lin residence, Lin Jue ordered someone to send her to the Chuihua Gate, and then went to the study.Yin said to her: "I have some things to deal with, you go to Congshanyuan first. Go back to mother, and I will go inside to say hello later."

After returning from fighting in the south of the Yangtze River, the burden on Lin Jue became heavier day by day.Now that he said something happened, Daiyu naturally believed it.

Lin Jue said goodbye to Daiyu and came into the study.Automatic hand grind, wrote a letter.Hand it over to Denggao and order him to take it out, and immediately send it to Mu Mansion, Canglang Pavilion, Suzhou.

Why did the emperor's person come by such a coincidence, and why did the empress dowager lend a helping hand at the most critical time?Could it be that they... have already known the joint?Lin Jue sat blankly in front of the desk with a gloomy expression.Where there is love, there is love.Now that he had agreed with Murong Zhizhi affectionately, he didn't think about hiding it for the rest of his life, and never thought about marrying a wife and having children.One day I have to tell my parents and elders, but how to tell and how to bring it up is a difficult problem.

At this time, splitting peaches and breaking sleeves is common.It's just that there are very few people who don't marry wives because of this kind of friendship.How to face Lin Hai and Jia Min's wrath, how to face difficulties without regret, this is the most important thing...

Lin Jue rubbed the center of her brows, feeling a sharp pain in her head, almost about to explode.

After a while, autumn gradually entered, and with the autumn rain, the chill gradually began to rise.When adding the first thick clothes, Lin Jue received a letter from Murong Zhizhi.His real name was not written on the envelope, and the handwriting was not his. The word Mu Fu was written on the outside, nothing else.

Open the envelope and spread out the letter paper. What's inside is his handwriting just now.Murong Zhizhi said in it: "Hiding is useless, it is better to speak out. My heart towards Zijing is as clear as the sun and the moon, how can I hide it? My mother's insight is like a torch, and the emperor's brother has a clear understanding of world affairs. On the eve of leaving Beijing, the clues have already appeared. This matter was all started by me, and I should bear it all by myself. The disaster should not reach Zijing. Now that tigers, leopards and wolves are around in the palace, I am worried about Zijing and cannot relax. Therefore, I have whispered to my brother and mother, please take care of me. .I am worried about having no heirs, and my mother is already a little loose. Please wait for me, Zijing, and when I return to Beijing, we will discuss the rest of our lives together."

Lin Jue folded the letter, Ming Rou took out the small box and put it in it.Looking at the box, it was as if a stove was attached to my heart, warming my heart and lungs.But he scolded: "You bastard, if you want me to wait for you, at least tell me when you will return to Beijing... It's just that returning to Beijing will do me no good, it seems like you owe an enemy for several lifetimes!"

After sitting for a while, he ordered someone to grind it again, and took out a pen to write a letter.What I write is also trivial, such as I have read some books recently, and my younger siblings are sometimes not very obedient.The mother kept urging the girl who wanted to see the Mu family, and mentioned more than once that it was time for him to get married.If you are really interested in that Miss Mu, you should make a decision early and don't ask other girls to wait.In addition to these, some matters in the palace were also mentioned.For example, the Supreme Emperor really wanted to be the crown prince. Some time ago, he appointed the concubine daughter of the former crown prince as the head of Qing'an County, and also the daughter of Xue's family, who had to be named the head of Qing'an County.Fearing another flood in Henan, the emperor sent Jia Zheng, the father of Concubine Xian, and Wu Tianyou, the father of Concubine Wu, to go...

These were either trivial matters, or internal palace affairs that he should have known earlier.It is very trivial, but he wrote every word seriously.As he wrote, the corners of his lips curled into a smile.This is the case with the love, some small things can also suck the sweetness from it.

At the end of the letter, Lin Jue paused, and added another sentence: Winter snow is coming, and I didn't share it with you last year.Two altars of wine were buried, and they were drunk when it snowed.

That's all for writing the letter, and when Mo was dry, he asked Ruan Wen again: "I remember that there are still some medicinal materials in Yuan Que Xuan, take some."

Gentle agreed, and came over with some herbs in a short while.They are all sealed in oiled paper bags, and the same goes the same.Lin Jue didn't recognize the medicinal ingredients, so Wenrou opened the oil-paper package, and spread everything out in front of him.He didn't directly say what he wanted, he just asked all the herbs on the table, and finally picked up the one he wanted.Fold them into letter paper and stuff them into envelopes.

When Murong Zhizhi received this letter, the cold wind was already howling, but the snow had not yet fallen.He put on his cloak and stood on the porch, opened the envelope, only to feel that the inside was bulging, as if stuffed with something else.Spread out the letter paper, but there is a piece of medicinal material inside.He has marched and fought for many years, so he naturally recognizes what this medicinal material is.

Holding the pill in the palm of his hand, and reading the letter carefully, Murong's brows and eyes were stained with soft color.

Angelica... He should go back when the first snow is falling. Zijing brewed two jars of fine wine with his own hands. Wouldn't it be incomprehensible for him to enjoy it all to himself?
