Love in the Red Chamber is full of Xiaoxiang

Chapter 9: The Garden Is Not Worth It

With the support of Xueyan, Daiyu hurriedly walked out of the Peony Pavilion, out of the sight of Shiheng and Shui Rong.For many days, Daiyu and him have been separated by two places, and these high palace walls have already made her feel disheartened.I don't want to recall the past anymore, and the word Baoyu gradually formed a little cinnabar in my heart.

Seeing the girl's expression change with cold eyes, Xueyan knew that it was the prince who suddenly mentioned Baoyu just now, which must have made the girl sad again.She is not Zijuan's sister, so she can't say words of comfort.I can only support her and walk with her all the way.

Passing through a rockery, Daiyu felt that her steps were vacillating, and she thought to herself, am I sick again?After leaving the Peony Garden, you have come to Jingxin Lake, which is in a hexagonal shape, with a nine-curved bamboo bridge connecting the opposite bank at one end and a corridor at the other end.Wisteria is planted on both sides of the corridor, and the vines cover the headspace.Now when the wisteria is in bloom, clusters of white, pink, purple or pale flowers hang down.

Xueyan saw that there were a lot of arched benches here, so she quickly spread the handkerchief and helped Daiyu sit down, and said: "I think the girl is tired from walking, so let's rest first."

Daiyu leaned on the railing and sat down, coughing twice probably because of the wind blowing.The scenery is pleasant now, and the waterside is clear. Daiyu reached out to touch the strings of wisteria flowers, and recalled a few lines of libretto: "Your Dao Cuisheng is full of skirts and shirts, and the gorgeous crystal flower hairpins are filled with eight treasures." , It can be seen that I have always loved nature all my life."

Xueyan stood aside, seeing that the girl didn't speak, she just stared at the clusters of flowers in a daze.Xueyan suddenly pointed to a pair of waterfowl on the water and called: "Look, girl, isn't that the mallard on the water?"

Daiyu looked at Xueyan's finger, and burst out laughing: "Silly girl, you can't even recognize a mandarin duck now and still call it a mallard. You really are a stupid girl."

Xueyan said to Daiyu with a pleasant face: "I have been looking at the girl and I am not happy all the time. Xueyan has a stupid mouth and can't say anything nice to relieve the girl. After all, it is sister Zijuan who is not here. The girl finally smiled, so Xueyan is relieved. gone."

Daiyu looked at her, and suddenly felt a little emotion in her heart and said to her: "You have followed me since I was a child. I went all the way north to the capital, lived in Rongguo Mansion for a few years, and now I come here with me. In terms of wit , You can’t compare to Zijuan in terms of meticulousness and consideration. How old is she older than you? People say that you are a coincidence, and some people say that you are stupid. In fact, it is because of these that I brought you here.”

Xueyan lowered her eyelids, and said in a low voice: "Sister Zijuan still has a place to go, but I have nowhere to go. I have to follow the girl wherever she is. I just hope the girl doesn't dislike her."

"This palace is naturally not comparable to the Grand View Garden. You and I must act carefully. Don't do one thing wrong or say one sentence wrong. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, even the princess will not be able to save us."

Xue Yan repeatedly nodded in agreement.

Just as the master and servant were talking, a group of people came across the corridor.Daiyu got up quickly.

Seeing that the momentum is not small, there are eunuchs leading the way in front, and there are palace maids in the back, there are more than a dozen people in front and behind, and I think this must be a big person.Gradually getting closer, Daiyu saw that the beauty surrounded by her was wearing a real red narrow gown, and when she walked around, she revealed the twelve apricot red skirts on her lower body. There are many gold, silver and jade hair accessories on the hairpin, which are radiant and dazzling.Daiyu hurriedly bowed her knees to salute.Only bursts of fragrant wind came over.

When the beauty came to the front, she looked Daiyu up and down, and said to the people around her, "Miss Lin is really thin. Could it be that their Jia family can't afford to eat? Oh, I really see her appearance like this." You are pitiful. What a delicate flower."

Daiyu looked and realized that it was Concubine Shu, and hurriedly said another blessing: "Minzi doesn't know that your mother is coming, please forgive me for being rude."

"Forgive me, forgive me. How can I not forgive you. Now you are the proud person next to the fifth princess, and the Queen Mother also said that you were born well, but our Long Live Lord wants to say that you are talented. We can't afford to offend you." Concubine Shu pulled Dai Jade's hand, with a charming and bright smile.

Then he said: "As long as a talent like Miss Yilin is willing to curry favor with her, she will be rich in the future. Didn't the Yuan concubine of your Jia family have some means to get the position of Fengzao Palace before? I didn’t even dare to lift my head when I saw Bengong’s face, and then I grew up with ambition. Oh, it’s her fault too. Who let other people’s natal family be powerful.”

Hearing this, Daiyu felt a strange smell. On the surface, she was praising her elder sister for her ability, but on the other hand, she seemed to be complaining that she was not reconciled.Now that she is Concubine Shu, why not be reconciled.Daiyu raised her eyebrows and held her breath, not daring to say anything casually.

Concubine Shu patted Daiyu's shoulder again, and said coquettishly, "Miss Lin came to Xianning Palace to have a sit and sit down, I still have something to say to the girl. Don't be afraid, the princess is covering you, I see you This pitiful look hurts you a little more."

Daiyu had no choice but to take a step back, and said embarrassingly, "Thank you, Ma'am, for your love."

Concubine Shu covered her face and smiled: "It depends on who I love. If I can't get into my eyes, I can't look down on it at all. It's hard to reason. In the past, I still had some friendship with your concubine Yuan. Unexpectedly, she left one step ahead of me. Hey, what a pity."

Seeing Daiyu's cold look again, Concubine Shu wondered if she had listened to what she had said.He pressed Daiyu's shoulder again and walked away with everyone.

Daiyu watched Concubine Shu's team gradually go away, and then slowly returned to Fengyi Palace with Xueyan.

Xueyan supported her and said: "This empress seems to be very kind to the girl. It would be great if the girl can find such a backer."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Daiyu scolded her lightly.

She heard from her aunt that there is no middle palace in this harem now.Since the death of Empress Xiaoduan, the position of the middle palace has been suspended, and it is counted as the head of Concubine Sun Guifei.Naturally, it rules the Sixth House.Sun Guifei came down and there were three concubines: Jing, Shu and Shun.Among the three concubines, Concubine Shu gave birth to two princes who were naturally a head taller than the other two.Now is the time when the spring breeze is in full bloom, and it is too late for others to flatter such powerful people, but Daiyu knows that it is better to avoid them in the future.
