[Onmyoji] Set a small goal first

The winter moon, the end of the long night, the snow covered Beijing, and the red maple in a small courtyard in Hanhejiang Mansion is like blood.

The angular rockery stands half gray and half white in the northwest corner, while the flowing water around them has already frozen into solid ice. At this moment, the frightened deer made of bamboo tubes is standing bare above the stone bowl, showing a bleak sense of Zen. Kind of ridiculous.

There are two maple trees planted next to the stone bowl, with slender branches and thin leaf-like leaves that cast two or three shades of umbrellas on the snow on the ground.Like two cowardly and shy charming women, they couldn't hide their beauty in this quiet courtyard with silver makeup. After all the flowers withered, they became the only bright color.

There was no wind, and another maple leaf fell faintly, which was extremely red against the snow.

A child was sitting on the edge of the porch not far from the stone bowl, watching the scenery quietly.

The black and full tresses are like a piece of satin, the bangs are soft and neat, the hair on the left and right sides is carefully tied with cherry-colored headbands and hangs down to the neck, and the immature and slender snow neck is exposed to the cold air, but it seems to be unfeeling chill.The green skirt is woven with light-colored butterflies, the grape-dyed hakama, and the two small hands protruding from the wide sleeves are propped on the floor on both sides of the body, and the round nails reveal powder. Yingying's flesh color came.

The skin on the face that has not yet faded from the baby fat is translucent, and under the light of the snow, it looks like a beautiful jade.The only problem was gathered in one place, the left eye that should have been exposed was covered by a silk cloth wrapped around the head, leaving only the right eye, with dark pupils, reflecting the tranquility of the garden, which became extremely quiet and lonely .

She is Hanhejiang Guixuliu, the daughter of a nobleman.

It has been the fifth year since she came to this world, and she has also seen this yard for five years.

She almost forgot... Her name is Xue Miao.

Traveling back to the Heian era from the 21st century and growing up as a baby, Xue Miao couldn't accept it at first, so he desperately refused the nanny to breastfeed, and almost starved to death to see Amaterasu.Xue Miao, who had been taught a lesson, did not dare to resist passively anymore, so she had to cheer up and start life again.Anyway, in this life, I have become a young lady who has no worries about food and clothing, has status and status, and it is not too bad to think about it.After all, she didn't leave a single intact body in the original world, and now she not only came back to life, but also had a good reincarnation.

Everything in the past is like dying yesterday, and everything today is like being born today.

People, wherever they go, they have to live tenaciously, right?Why die when you can live.

With such a positive and healthy belief, Xue Miao accepted the new name and new identity, and planned to work hard to live out her style in the small Japan.

However, she underestimated the corruption of Heian capital, the arrogance and lust of nobles, and the extent to which people can be vicious.

The Hanhejiang family is powerful and powerful, and Gui Xuliu's father, Hanhejiang Pingzhi, is the second master of the family, holding nearly half of the family's power, and the remaining half is in the hands of his elder brother.The two brothers were at odds with each other, and the filth in it was hard to describe.Gui Xuliu's mother was not the daughter of a noble clan, on the contrary, she was a famous dancer in Kyoto.This incident was a sensation at the time. A lowly dancer became the wife of a powerful family. Even if the other nobles disdainful, but remembering the death of Hanhejiang Pingzhi's first two wives, they kept a secret, and dared not speak to Hanhejiang again. Family matters.The folks praised Hanhejiang's family wildly, which actually brought Hanhejiang Pingzhi a good name.Gui Xuliu thinks that this is like Wu Sangui marrying Chen Yuanyuan. While appearing down-to-earth, it gives the people a lot of things to talk about after dinner, encourages the atmosphere of free love, and by the way, also encourages the ambition of a group of women who desire prosperity and wealth. It can be said that everyone is happy.

But is this really the case?

The corners of Gui Xuliu's mouth curled into a cool arc, her eyes were dark and calm.

On the dazzlingly red maple tree, another red leaf fell.

Such a poignant and beautiful red maple, with such a fiery and passionate color, even withered, it is still so heart-stirringly red...

However, no matter how bright red it is, it cannot conceal the fact that it is dead.

Soon, it will be mixed with dirty snow water, and it will be scattered into mud.

Gui Xuliu finally moved, she no longer looked at the only view in the garden, but raised her head slightly, looking at the sky above the courtyard——

It's yin, and it's thunder.

There is no sound of wind, no thunderstorm, but the wind and thunder can be heard from the square inch of sky overhead.Buildings and pavilions block the distance, forming a flat mouth, as if the next second will let out a smile and swallow life.

Guixu's hand that was left on the floor clenched her fist suddenly, her gaze was always calm, and there was no trace of childishness on her immature face.

One day, within this square inch, she can no longer be trapped.

She must...must leave this ghostly place!

"Miss Guixuliu, the time has come, Mrs. Li will deliver the meal."

The calm and respectful voice of the confinement maid outside the shoji sounded behind her.

After a pause, Gui Xuliu relaxed her hands, and looked away at the sky in a dispirited manner. After the voice repeated the same words unhurriedly, she slowly stood up while supporting the pillars of the porch, dragged Dangling in this cumbersome clothes, he left the courtyard.

The Hanhejiang mansion is very large, divided into inner and outer mansions, and the female family members live in the inner mansions.Gui Xuliu's small courtyard is to the east of the inner mansion, which is a small corner that no one cares about on weekdays.Since she came to this era, the farthest distance she has traveled is from her yard to Mrs. Li's bedroom. She is not allowed to leave her yard except for breakfast three times a month.There are a total of 12 maids and servants in the yard, four of whom are personal servants, and the rest have their own division of labor, doing some rough chores, and almost never showing their faces in front of the master.

Gui Xuliu doesn't like to be in the same room with other people. Except for daily services such as dressing, washing and dish washing, the maids have to be summoned and seldom enter the inner bedroom. Dead silence.In fact, in his previous life, Gui Xu could at least be regarded as an optimistic and gentle person, not to mention being enthusiastic and cheerful.

But this Hanhejiang mansion is like a grotesque quilt woven with pieces of poisonous feathers, wrapping, covering, and pressing the person tightly, and then the person suffocates and dies, and it dissolves the corpse together. Strictly cover the rotting corpse, water and rotten meat, mixed with the stench of corruption that can be smoked for three miles, and the appearance is still glamorous.

Every day is the wear and tear of the will and the suffering of the spirit.

Gui Xuliu put down the wooden chopsticks, wiped his mouth lightly with a silk handkerchief, and looked up at the woman in Chinese clothes sitting on the head, there were many exquisite snacks on the table that were completely untouched.

The woman is wearing a three-inch-wide dress in Su Fang color with a cute yellow border, and a red maple circled by the white rattan wheel pattern printed and dyed on the big sleeves, which is the Hanhejiang clan's coat of arms.

"Time flies, Liuzi is already five years old..." Seeing that Guixu stopped to eat, the woman also put down the wooden chopsticks, and seemed not interested in the food on the table, "Your father, sir Appoint a public housewife to come and teach you how to read and write, to enlighten you in rhythm, you should be grateful and learn more.”

Gui Xuliu's gaze slipped away from the woman's flawless smile for a moment, and he bowed his head and closed his eyes.

"Yes, my lord."

she whispered.

This woman is Mrs. Li, the biological mother of this body.

There is no need to wonder how a former dancer became Han He Jiang Pingzhi's wife, Mrs. Li's face is the best answer.Or maybe, plus her figure, her smile and chanting... and even this skin, inside and out, is born to be a good material for Israeli sex.

But Gui Xuliu never dared to face up to Mrs. Li's gorgeous face, which reminded her of those scenes... In those scenes, the painful and twisted side of this beautiful face.

Mrs. Li greeted Gui Xu with a voice as sweet as jade and soft as silk, which fully demonstrated the warmth and kindness of a mother.Such a beautiful voice is enough to make any man from the Heian capital to the emperor down to the common people lose their minds, even if what is uttered from her lips is Dun Dun's teachings, just because it is her, there is still a hint of intimacy.

It is such a magical voice, it is indeed like a monster's voice to Gui Xuliu's ears.

The same water chestnut lips, which are very similar to Gui Xuliu, screamed like a wild beast in another scene, and it was impossible to connect it with this beautiful voice.However, Guixu can stay, and she doesn't want to see Mrs. Li precisely because she can.

"Leave the child, the maid will visit tomorrow, every three days thereafter, you must not lose your manners. If you have nothing to do, go back. Today, in the middle of the moon, the palace will dress for Miss Genji's main family. I need to prepare for the banquet immediately. "

Zhenshou, crescent eyebrows, beautiful eyes with peach blossoms, and there is a touch of powder in the corners of the eyes.Covered in beauty, Mrs. Li smiled at Yan Yan, showing her unparalleled beauty.

Gui Xuliu just bowed his head and said yes, and then resigned.

All the way out of Mrs. Li's dormitory, passing by the South Court, although there is no mountain red, it is full of forests, the maple trees in the courtyard are scattered, and the snowflakes are reflected in the distance, like... what does it look like?Probably like a high-definition photo with over-standard contrast, the three colors of white snow, blood maple, and black wood are so thick that ink can flow out.

Gui Xuliu walked by quickly, not even the heavy hakama on her body could stop her pace, until she left all those Danfeng behind, she gradually slowed down her pace.The attendant following her was expressionless, keeping a distance of three steps behind her step by step, and seemed not at all uncomfortable with the rhythm of suddenly walking and suddenly relaxing.Maybe it's because I'm used to it, every time I come out of Mrs. Li's dormitory, I have to go through this experience.

Back in the small courtyard, Gui Xu left behind the maids on both sides, walked back to the porch formed by the suspended wooden platforms, and the first thing that caught his eye was the two delicate maple trees.

"and many more."

A child's unique crisp voice sounded, and one of the maids who was about to pull up the shoji and retreat stopped after hearing this.

"Yes, Miss Gui Xuliu, what are your orders?"

After waiting for a while, but there was no response, the maid raised her head slightly, and glanced at her master indistinctly.Then, she saw the child's gaze fell somewhere in the courtyard, and the expression on his face was strange.

It seems that there is something here that she can't bear for a moment, and she is so disgusted that she doesn't want to look at it again.This kind of dislike is like seeing the monster under the painted skin for fear of getting a little bit of it.She wanted to run far away, or simply destroy it, because she was gnashing her teeth, because there seemed to be faint firelight dancing in those black pupils.

But even so, it cannot be denied that this child was born extremely well.

Very much like his mother.

However, Mrs. Li would never be able to see things like this.She doesn't have this kind of hot hatred and cold determination, she can't understand this kind of strange beauty, she will always be delicate, charming, and even... miserable.

"Your name is Sangzi, I remember you."

Gui Xuliu spoke clearly, with a dull tone, not at all like a five-year-old child.But this is enough to make Sangzi's thoughts come back.

She lowered her head lower: "Yes, Miss Guixuliu."

It is not surprising that Sang Zi knew that her name was remembered. She has served Gui Xuliu since she was born, and none of the other maids stayed here for a full year.Thinking of this, Sangzi has no distracting thoughts, otherwise she wouldn't be able to stay here for such a long time.

Gui Xuliu didn't look back at the maid who stayed by her side for five years. After a long time, there was tiredness in her voice:

"Go down, don't call me for lunch."

Sangzi responded without pause, even without changing the angle of his head and neck: "Miss Gui Xuliu, I'm afraid this is against the rules."

Gui Xuliu took a deep breath, exhaled it again, and said without making any excuses: "Then come back at that time, and don't let me see people at other times."

"Yes."

This time there was no further rebuttal, Gui Xuliu heard Sang Zi quietly pull up the screen, and the whole courtyard fell into silence again.

Guixu stayed where he was for a long while, speechless.
