chronicle of court survival

When a person is frustrated, it is easy to be passive and sabotage.

Xia Qing did not help a few times, and after receiving Lou Guanxue's unabashedly disgusted and irritable eyes, she silently went to do other things.

He climbed up a tree in the corner of the cold palace, and then jumped onto the wall, which was covered with moss and unknown white wildflowers.

Only when Xia Qing reached the wall did he realize that the outside world was nothingness, the "obstacle" was trapped in this cold palace, and the outside was a pure white world.

After Lou Guanxue finished his work, he went to the palace to meet his mother.

Xia Qing followed behind him, and finally saw the woman's appearance clearly, and she had to say that Pure Shark was really the most beautiful woman in the world.Straight hair like a waterfall, fair skin, and a water blue dress like a fairy concubine, her beauty is breathtaking.

She also has a nice name, Yao Ke.

The eunuch called her "Mrs. Yaoke".

In front of the crumbling palace wall, Yao Ke was holding a basin of old clothes that needed to be washed, listening indifferently to the eunuch's shrill words.

The eunuch's eyes lingered greedily on her face: "It's not that our family said, with Madam's beauty, why would I stay in this cold palace if I put a little thought into it?"

Yao Ke's expression was cold: "If there is nothing else, father-in-law can go."

She turned around and walked to the laundry place, leaving the eunuch behind with an uncertain expression, and finally cursed from her mouth: "Bitch, why are you pretending to be so noble."

When Lou Guanxue came over, he just heard these words that were neither serious nor serious, and his expression was hidden in the shadows, expressionless.

Xia Qing was so angry.

The eunuch was going to leave, but when he turned his head, his eyes swept away, and he fell on Lou Guanxue and stopped moving again, and asked with interest: "You are Yaoke's child."

Lou Guanxue stopped in his tracks, past experience told him that it would be even more unlucky to ignore it now.In the spring, he looked at the eunuch vigilantly and indifferently, then lowered his head again, and said "um" very softly.

The eunuch was in a daze for a second, and the corners of his lips curled up in a strange arc: "You raise your head and let our family have a look."

"Look at that! Pervert!" Xia Qing cursed angrily from the side.Then he discovered that he was still a ghost in the eyes of others, unable to see or hear, which made him anxious.

Lou Guanxue raised her head obediently, her face was pale, her pupils were as black as the thick night.

The smile on the corners of the old eunuch's lips deepened, and there was an undisguised obscenity in his eyes: "As expected of Yao Ke's child, he was born really well."

Lou Guanxue pursed her lips and did not speak.

The old eunuch laughed again: "Good boy, do you want to eat candied haws? Ouch—"

He was hit in the face with a stone.

Xia Qing had already climbed to the nearby tree. When she heard the word "candied haws", she was stunned for a few seconds, and then became even more angry.He threw the stones in his hand one by one at the perverted eunuch's face.He smashed fast and hard, and went away through the wind, smashing the old eunuch so that he ran away, scolded "who" and "who" several times in a fit of anger, and couldn't avoid it, so he left with his whisk.

"Pervert." Xia Qing cursed and jumped off the branch.

Lou Guanxue remained expressionless, and wiped the face touched by the eunuch with her hands, repeatedly, as if she wanted to break the skin and let the blood gushes out to wash it clean.

Xia Qing noticed his movement and was startled. He quickly grabbed his hand: "What are you doing? If you think it's dirty, just wash it?"

Lou Guanxue looked down at his hands.

Regardless of his struggle, Xia Qing dragged him to sit by the table in the courtyard, poured a basin of water over without stopping, and put it in front of him: "You tried so hard to wipe the blood?"

Lou Guanxue: "Just to wash away that disgusting feeling."

Xia Qing: "Do you think your blood is cleaner than water?"

Lou Guanxue said lightly, "No, my blood is quite dirty."

Xia Qing choked, and decided to give him a good science introduction: "It's not your blood, it's everyone's blood."

Lou Guanxue took a look at him, put her bruised hand into the basin, washed it casually, and left without even saying "thank you".

"..." What kind of dog temper.

Xia Qing thought that the eunuch would just let it go if he pretended to be haunted, but he didn't expect that it was really a knife on Sezi's head.

One night, the pervert came again.

The bleak moonlight shone on the wild grass in the ancient well. He was wearing a blue eunuch uniform like a upright poisonous snake. He bent down and smiled wrinkledly, and whispered, "Your Highness, do you want to eat candied haws?"

Before Xia Qing had time to get angry, Lou Guanxue was already laughing little by little under the moonlight, her voice was like honey: "Okay."

Xia Qing was dumbfounded.

When Lou Guanxue was a child, she was beautiful and well-behaved. When she had a cold face, she looked like an unsheathed knife with snow in it, but her smile was so sweet that one's heart trembled.

Xia Qing looked like a ghost.

Seeing Lou Guanxue smiling sweetly at the five-year-old child, he said softly, "Okay, I'll go with you."

"Lou Guanxue!" Xia Qing stared sharply.

But there seemed to be strange fluctuations in the air, the cold palace was desolate, the night crows were cold, Lou Guanxue couldn't hear his voice, and it seemed like he couldn't see his person, it was like a static memory.

"You eat candied haws!"

Xia Qing was trembling with anger, and wanted to follow them, but the "obstacle" of Leng Gong stopped him.He just watched Lou Guanxue walk into the void of pure white with that pervert, leaving him alone.

Xia Qing felt in a daze that he was dreaming.

——Candied haws?Is this the so-called liking candied haws?

He scratched his hair irritably, trying to curse.

He was so angry that he decided not to care about the little kid anymore.But I don't care what I think in my heart, but my body is very honest.Xia Qing climbed up the high wall with short hands and short feet, hoping to see the outside clearly with the slightest hope.But as far as the eye can see, it is also nothingness.He stayed there for a long time, and then wanted to go to Yao Ke and tell her that your son was kidnapped by a candied haws, but before he could act, Lou Guanxue had already returned.

"Why did you climb up again?"

Lou Guanxue's disgusted voice came.

Xia Qing turned around in surprise.I saw Lou Guanxue standing under the wall, her hair was tied behind her back with the blue hair band, her black clothes were neat and clean, and she was holding a candied haws in her hand.

The candied hawthorn was bright red, the same dark color as the smudged edges of his sleeves.

Xia Qing was dumbfounded: "You...you..." He looked him up and down, and it took him a long time to find his voice: "You, really just went to get a candied haws?"

Lou Guanxue sneered when she heard this, with a sarcastic look on her face: "What do you think?"

Xia Qing stuck for a few seconds: "Then let me change the question, did you kill him? Did you kill him so quickly?"

Lou Guanxue's ice-like face showed a bit of chill under the moonlight: "It's none of your business."

Xia Qing: "..." He suspects that this is not Lou Guanxue's obstacle, but his!He is about to be outraged by his demons, and he is the one who needs to be rescued!

But that perverted eunuch died well.

"You... After you kill someone, what do you do with the body? You're not afraid of being discovered." Xia Qing hesitated and asked worriedly.

Lou Guanxue opened her mouth to bite a candied haws, her face puffed up, she was a little bit cute, and her tone was unreasonable: "No, I don't make this kind of mistake. Those idiots in the throwing pool can't find it."

"..." sounds very experienced.

Xia Qing thought for a while: "Are you really only five years old?"

Lou Guanxue didn't speak, she glanced at him with her dark eyes, "What stupid question are you asking?"

Xia Qing twitched the corner of his mouth.

When Lou Guanxue grew up, she was mysterious and dangerous like a psychopath.It was scary when I was a kid.

He is like a wolf cub, who can bite off the enemy's throat with his mouth open; he is also like a piece of weed, which takes root in this desolate cold palace and is full of vitality.

Yes, vitality.

Xia Qing finally realized that he was confused.

In such a repressed, twisted, and dark childhood, Lou Guanxue did not appear inferior, frightened, or pitiful.

He is very smart, knowing that keeping the wound on his hand can save some work; he also knows how to protect himself, and when he met the eunuch who was trying to make up his mind, he became murderous the second time he met.

Adversity has nurtured him to be rebellious, like a sharp sword supporting his thin body.

It's hard to imagine what such a demon would be.

lonely?Lou Guanxue should be alone, otherwise he wouldn't have been talking to him.

Of course, this kind of loneliness is not enough to become a demon, it is just a very pure and dispensable emotion.

So the "obstacle" that Dizi talked about?So what is the obstacle.

When Xia Qing was thinking wildly, Lou Guanxue had already eaten two candied haws.

Xia Qing came back to his senses and complained about him: "Brother, we are friends now, don't you know what sharing between friends is?"

Lou Guanxue glanced at him, turned around and left.

Xia Qing gritted her teeth angrily.

Lou Guanxue turned around and bumped into someone.

Yao Ke.

Xia Qing was taken aback.

At this moment, the weird feeling came again, the moon was as cool as water, it seemed that the water curtain of memories was gently rippling.

Yao Ke was wearing a water blue palace dress, holding a lamp, her black hair was like a waterfall, her stunning face was blurred and far away in the light of the lights and moonlight, she asked: "What do you eat?"

Lou Guanxue didn't want to answer: "Candied haws."

Yao Ke bent down and asked, "Who gave it to you?"

Lou Guanxue held back her impatience: "An old eunuch."

Yao Ke asked: "The one from last time."

Lou Guanxue: "Yes."

Yao Ke took the candied haws from his hand and said softly: "The hawthorns are wrapped in sugar and strung together with sticks to become candied haws? Human food is always so strange. Human desires are also very strange, lust, greed, There is also the desire to talk." After Yao Ke finished speaking, she smiled very lightly: "A Xue likes this?"

Lou Guanxue looked back at her coldly.

"Snap" the lantern rolled to the corner of the wall.

Yao Ke suddenly let go of the lantern in her hand, and she grabbed Lou Guanxue's chin suddenly, the irises of her silver-blue eyes glowed coldly, like condensed tears.With the other hand, he picked up the candied haws in his hand, and stabbed Lou Guanxue's throat with the sharp stick.

Lou Guanxue's eyes widened suddenly, but her chin was forced down and she couldn't move.

Yao Ke seemed to be going crazy, desperately stuffing the candied haws into his mouth, and murmured, "Is the candied haws delicious?"

Blood gushed out from Lou Guanxue's mouth, he wanted to close his teeth, but Yao Ke's strength was astonishing.

Xia Qing was dumbfounded. He wanted to stop that crazy woman, but found that it was a memory he couldn't get into.He could only watch Yao Ke stab several times from the perspective of a bystander, and then let go, the candied haws rolled down, and the sign was covered in blood.

After she let go, Lou Guanxue half-kneeled on the ground, her throat was full of blood, and she kept retching.

Yao Ke stood spotless under the cold moon, looking at her son in a state of distress.She was in a trance, tears fell from the corners of her eyes, turning into white pearls, one by one, they reached Lou Guanxue's feet

"How can you have these dirty desires, how can you be human...you are my child."

She seemed to come out of her daze again and woke up suddenly.

"Ash."

Regret, confusion, and distress were all in her eyes, and her eyes were flushed, and she took a step forward.

But the boy avoided her like a viper.

Yao Ke stood there in a daze, the wind blew her dress.

Lou Guanxue didn't even look at her, she staggered away while leaning on the wall.

"Axue!" Yao Ke suddenly turned pale, her eyes were so red that they could bleed, and she ran forward in embarrassment.

Lou Guanxue was delirious from the pain, got caught in the weeds, and had a bloodstain on her arm.

"I'm sorry, Axue, I'm sorry."

She followed behind, flustered and tearful.

Lou Guanxue's arms were in burning pain, and his throat was full of greasy blood. He pulled his lips and smiled coldly and ironically.

"Lou Guanxue?!" Xia Qing was finally able to move, and hurried over, squatted down, and grabbed his scarred hand.

Xia Qing helped him up and said anxiously, "I'll take you away."

Lou Guanxue: "No need." His voice was hoarse.

Xia Qing: "Then we must avoid this crazy woman first."

Lou Guanxue said indifferently: "She won't be able to chase her for long." After speaking, she looked up at the high wall of the cold palace again: "Take me up."

"Ah?" Xia Qing couldn't figure it out, but obediently supported Lou Guanxue, let him step on his shoulders first up the tree, and then jumped onto the wall.

"Axue, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Yao Ke's voice was painful and desperate, she sat on the clouds with no love or hatred all her life, and all her tears seemed to be given to her own children.

Pure shark's tears are comparable to blood from the heart, and cannot be shed too much.

Yao Ke didn't take two steps, her vision was blurred, she couldn't see the way as vast as the sea fog, but she didn't care about it, she just leaned on the wall and searched sadly and anxiously, what came out was no longer tears but blood , flowing across the pale face, like withered flowers.

"Axue, Axue..."

Xia Qing watched as the woman tripped over grass, scratched by rocks, and had her hair tangled in branches, but she still didn't stop.Walking into the darkness, the sound became hoarse and sad, full of remorse and despair.

Xia Qing held her breath, looked away, and immediately asked Lou Guanxue worriedly: "Is your throat okay?"

Lou Guanxue sat side by side with him on the wall, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth expressionlessly: "It's okay." He was still holding the dusty and blood-stained candied haws in his hand, and after he finished speaking, he bit into a candied haws above.

"I rely on you to still eat? Don't die?!"

Xia Qing was so frightened that he grabbed his candied haws.

The corner of Lou Guanxue's lips curled into a sneer: "Don't worry, my life is very tough, I won't die if she falls down the stairs."

Xia Qing was still worried, "Open your mouth and let me see."

Lou Guanxue ignored him, chewing until his teeth were covered with blood.

Xia Qing: "..."

He turned around in a hurry, went down to the wooden spoon to get some water first, and let him clear his mouth.

Lou Guanxue stared at him coldly for a long time, but still sucked in her mouth and spat out a ball of dirty blood.

This Yao Ke is really a lunatic.

Xia Qing hesitated to speak: "How about I take you away."

Lou Guanxue said, "No."

Xia Qing: "Huh?"

Lou Guanxue's eyes were clear, and she said coldly, "I'm only safe by her side, anyway, she went crazy so many times, she didn't kill me."

Xia Qing: "..."

Lou Guanxue looked at him suspiciously, and sneered, "You're not thinking about saving me from my demons, are you?"

Xia Qing was numb and didn't know what to say.

Lou Guanxue spat out the chewed hawthorn. This person became obsessed with cleanliness when he grew up, but he didn't like anything when he was young.He touched back to make sure that the hair tie was still behind, and then said lightly: "How can I have demons. I have lived enough unlucky life in this life, and yet I have demons to torment myself, am I out of my mind? "

Xia Qing said with difficulty: "Things like demons are not a question of whether you think about it or not."

Lou Guanxue's lips curled up into a smile, showing the nervous tone of growing up: "Oh, then tell me, what is my inner demon."

Xia Qing: "It's... your mother."

Lou Guanxue nodded: "Well, then how to break it and kill her?"

Xia Qing thought about it seriously: "You really asked a good question."

Lou Guanxue sneered with unknown meaning.

Xia Qing let out a long breath, and said in a muffled voice: "I really didn't expect you to be like this when you were young. But think about it, this is what you should be like."

Lou Guanxue didn't speak, she lowered her head, the mole on her eyelid was red and evil.

Xia Qing made a mistake, and asked softly, "Lou Guanxue, has anyone cared about you?"

Lou Guanxue looked at him for a few seconds, like looking at a fool, and then a playful smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Yes, there are many. Didn't someone ask me today if I like candied haws?"

Xia Qing: "...I'm talking about normal concern!!"

Lou Guanxue said nonchalantly, "There are a lot of maids in the Huanyi bureau. If I show my wounds and pretend to be stupid, and then expose my scars and tell about my tragic experiences, I can satisfy the sympathy and curiosity of those people and get a lot of greetings." After thinking about it, he added a sentence: "Oh, we can do less things."

Xia Qing: "..."

Xia Qing: "You live so clearly."

etc--

Xia Qing tilted her head, her light brown eyes were full of shock: "Lou Guanxue, your only wish now is to survive."

Lou Guanxue was stunned.

"Yes."

He also seemed to feel that there was nothing to deny.

The tone was understated, but Xia Qing felt that this was the moment he was closest to Lou Guanxue's heart.

The breeze blew Lou Guanxue's emerald blue headband, and his black hair brushed against his face, and he took another bite of a candied haws.

The boy's pale and thin face had dark eyes, and there was a shocking energy.

Like the strong grass that stretches across the barren land toward death, it grows savagely in this muddy and bloody human world.

Lou Guanxue chewed the hawthorn but didn't swallow it, just spit it out, he tilted his head: "Do you know why I talk to you?"

Xia Qing was still thinking about something, absent-minded: "Why?"

Lou Guanxue smiled, without any emotion: "Because you look at people with dull eyes."

Xia Qing: "..."

Stupid flute, let me out! ! !
