Misty rain, red mansion, Concubine Xiaoxiang
Chapter 57
Shui Danyang couldn't look at her like this the most, and felt even more disgusted and disgusting. He looked at her coldly and said, "Didn't you always say that Miss Ye is the most stable and dignified person? Why do you look at her more and more now?" Is it becoming kitsch? But this is good, it is more in line with Miss Ye's appearance and temperament, and saves me from pretending to be an empty valley and orchid all day long."
Ye Zhilan bit her lips tightly to hide the resentment in her eyes, but the Mrs. Gao Ming sitting beside her couldn't help lowering her head and laughing out loud.Who doesn't know what Ye Zhilan did the year before last?Now that the family members of the Beijing Palace are in full swing, they can still sit here with a cheeky face, it's truly extraordinary.
"I heard that the bridegroom officer is a person who kills heads without blinking. Danyang will marry him in the future. I really have to be careful." Seeing her daughter being ridiculed and made fun of, Mrs. Ye Xu couldn't help it anymore. , looking up at Shui Danyang, who seemed to be making fun of him, but actually held a gun with a stick.
Princess Beijing frowned slightly and looked at Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Ye, with a trace of anger in her cold eyes, she placed the teacup heavily on the high table, the crisp sound made Mrs. Ye shut up immediately, Shui Danyang blushed. Looking at Mrs. Ye with a sneer smile, she said: "No need for Mrs. Ye to worry about these things, Mrs. Ye has no choice but to marry off her daughter."
Xu's complexion immediately sank, and she looked at the Princess of Beijing and said, "Take a look, this Danyang's mouth is becoming more and more clever. After all, I am also her elder, right? Why did she keep talking more and more? It's in order."
Princess Beijing sorted out the pattern of autumn chrysanthemums on her cuffs with a faint smile, and said indifferently: "Mrs. Ye watched her grow up and praised her for being a straightforward person in the past. Why don't you like her a little today? Straight to the point?" Then he turned his head and reprimanded lightly: "What are you talking about in front of the elders? Some people don't like to listen, why make everyone unhappy, they are all about to get married, why don't you understand The truth of speaking human words in front of people?"
Uncontrollable sneers came from the banquet, and the faces of Ye's mother and daughter looked more like a fruit shop with all kinds of colors.Daiyu's eyes were like autumn water falling in a deep pool, with some golden leaves rippling in circles, her face was calm and unwavering looking at Ye Zhilan who got up all dressed up, her eyelids slightly lowered, and a faint smile overflowed.
"It's all Zhilan's fault, Princess Chengning is offended, please forgive me." She bowed her knees dignifiedly and saluted, her pale face with drooping eyebrows looked really pitiful from above.Daiyu stroked the clear tea in the cup, watching the scattered green leaves gently floating in the green tea.
Princess Beijing raised her hand to signal her to sit down, looked at the wives who were drinking tea with a smile, and said slowly: "If you don't know, you may think that you are not here to congratulate Danyang, but to disrupt the situation. But that's all, Cheng Ning I have been spoiled by me since I was a child, no matter whether I should say a lot of words, as long as I think of it, I will rush out, and I won’t even think about it.”
Concubine Dongping looked at Concubine Xining with a slight smile, and said with a smile: "With the pampering temperament of parents and elder brothers, it is inevitable that one will be arrogant and indulgent. Which one of us has not come here like this? The dignity of the princess of the royal family, the etiquette that has been raised since childhood The rules are not bad at all, I just look at Danyang very well."
Everyone's sincere or superficial smiles melted away the entanglement just now, but Ye Zhilan's smiling eyes showed a bit of sharpness.Shui Danyang raised his eyebrows and looked at her quietly until she closed her eyes and lowered her head.
Walking in the garden, kicking the small stones under his feet into the opposite lake, Shui Danyang twisted the embroidered handkerchief in his hand bitterly, and said: "I really don't know how thick-skinned they are, but they can come to the door again and sit in the guest seat In fact, I have never seen such a faceless and skinny person in my age."
Daiyu supported Zijuan's arm and walked by her side, staring at her angry face, smiled slightly: "What is Danyang angry about? We know exactly what kind of character she is, so we just need to be careful about her." Shui Danyang twisted the embroidered handkerchief and leaned on Daiyu's arm, refusing to move, saying: "She is hard to guard against, and now I only worry about her harm to Mrs. Wang in the future."
Daiyu frowned in thought, and said with a slight smile, "Don't worry about Danyang, I have my own concerns about these things." The deeper the person hides, the more scheming she is, and the current situation is like a fog, and she can't see clearly what is going on in her heart. Maybe she didn't have to guess about the measurement, because the Fengyi Palace was behind the Ye Mansion.
Daiyu leaned on the imperial concubine's couch with the scroll in her hand and watched carefully, the fist-sized Ye Mingzhu overflowed with bright light behind the tulle.Shui Rong stepped forward to take away the book in her hand, Daiyu raised her head to look at him, and said with a faint smile, "Have you finished reading Rong Ying's official documents?"
Shui Rong replied casually, took the rhino horn comb on the dressing table and gently combed her dry hair, the smooth and watery blue hair was very cool and comfortable.Daiyu stretched her arms around his waist, raised her head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Shui Rong frowned and thought for a while, then walked to the desk with Daiyu on his arm, and opened the box on the table, Daiyu looked at the jade bracelet in the box in surprise, and said: "Hasn't Rongying returned it to Mr. Pan? "Shui Rong shook his head, fixedly stared at Daiyu's bright autumn eyes, held her in his arms, and said: "It's not that I didn't return it, but Mr. Pan didn't want it."
Daiyu was even more puzzled, and said, "Why?" Could it be that Danyang didn't want it just because he had taken it before?Daiyu frowned.Shui Rong shook his head with a slight smile, and said, "He said it was a symbol of Pan's parents' daughter-in-law." Daiyu frowned, and suddenly remembered something she hadn't asked about for a long time, and said, "Rong Ying, Pan Chengjun really had a childhood sweetheart. your fiancée?"
The water-soluble probe held the blue silk around Daiyu's neck behind her back, and said lightly, "Does it matter?" Danyang was destined to marry Xin Moyu, and keeping her from knowing about many things would break her knot even more. Only by cutting off the past completely can we have the idea of pursuing it again.
Daiyu nodded knowing what he was thinking, maybe sometimes it is a blessing not to know, "In fact, it is silly happiness to know nothing, knowing too much, happiness is also slowly passing away in the process of exploring Exhausted. If so, I'd rather not know anything."
Thinking of this, Daiyu sneered, a strong sense of sadness rippled from her heart, bitterness was like twisting the lotus seeds that hadn't been picked out.Is the mere new top scholar worthy of the Holy Majesty's decree to bestow a marriage?It was nothing more than to use this to break Danyang's thoughts, so that Danyang would marry Xin Moyu willingly and become a pawn in his hands.Staring at this jade bracelet, many things seemed to come to mind clearly. Although Shui Rong didn't say anything, Daiyu could vaguely guess it.
Shui Lu left the mansion privately and brought nearly 200 people to appear near the capital. Doesn't Shui Shu really know?Or wait and see what happens to fuel the flames in order to achieve the purpose in your heart?After all, they are the chess pieces on the chessboard that allow him to control, pushing the Beijing Palace to the target of public criticism.
"Although we don't want to find out, the deeper some secrets are hidden, the more they can arouse people's curiosity." Shui Rong gently stroked her sarcastic face, and said with a light smile: "Daier understands more and more now. , getting more and more annoyed." Leaning over and kissing her brow and eyes, he said lightly, "Not all the pieces on the chessboard can go according to his wishes, and sometimes the situation forces him to make a move." The gloomy eyes were full of coldness, Daiyu held his handsome cheek on tiptoe, giggled and said, "You look more and more like Hao Ze."
The tired look in Daiyu's eyes made Shui Rong smile, followed her words to change the subject, grabbed her troublesome hand, gently took her into his arms, and said, "Am I like Hao Ze?" As he spoke, his big hand reached out to her waist and tightly grasped her girdle, making it impossible for her to escape.
Sensing his intention, Daiyu quickly wanted to dodge and dodge.Water-melting iron arms tightly wrapped her around her, with slender fingers on her waist, she was out of breath laughing, leaned softly on his chest, and smiled intermittently: "Okay, Rong Ying Rong Ying is not like Hao Ze, Hao Ze is like Rong Ying in this head office, right?" The smile on the corner of his lips made Shui Rong want to pick it off, and the dense kisses were lingering.
"Why is mother so angry?" Ye Zhilan squatted down and picked up the broken jade bracelet on the ground, and said, "What did mother drop this beautiful jade bracelet?" Mrs. Ye looked at Xu with disgust. Looking at the jade bracelet, he sneered and said, "It was given to my mother by the princess of Beijing, but now my mother just feels disgusted when she looks at it."
Ye Zhilan walked over slowly, put the jade bracelet on the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, and said indifferently: "Since it was a gift from the concubine, the concubine mother should keep it well." Looking up at Mrs. Ye, she said: "Mother, don't tell me Have you forgotten your father's instructions? The wealth and wealth of our Ye family are all entrusted to King Feng Yi. Although the ministers who support him have been hit one after another. But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and Prime Minister Li has been with him for many years How could it be possible for the business to fail in one fell swoop? Even if King Yicheng becomes the crown prince today, I am afraid that his position in the East Palace will not be secure."
Looking at her daughter's steady eyebrows, those confident eyes full of planning and stability, she sighed and took her hand, saying, "My son, it's not too much to honor your mother with your intelligence and intelligence." , but he misidentified the person and paid the wrong infatuation."
Ye Zhilan's eyes darkened and she couldn't hide her hatred. Her cold tone was like icy stings on her face, and she said coldly: "These shameful daughters are always in my heart. The most important thing now is to let the princess of Beijing be right. Let's let go of our guard and treat our Ye Mansion as before. At that time, it will be much easier to do what we want to do. The seat of Princess Beijing is mine. Since I can't get it, I will never let Lin Daiyu Sit comfortably." He let out a long breath, and said regretfully, "It's just hateful, so many archers sent out by King Fengyi failed to shoot her, so her life is so precious? "
Mrs. Ye sneered and said: "I saw her frail body and couldn't bear the slightest fright. She said that she had to use us for something, and one day she couldn't bear to die." The trace of hatred on her face distorted the beauty On his face, the lines and lines marked by the years are also clearly displayed, and the corners of his lips are pursed with the vicissitudes and oldness of the weather.
Ye Zhilan sneered and handed the broken jade bracelet to Mrs. Ye's hand, saying: "The things bestowed by Princess Beijing are all in booklets, mother should put them away earlier, if someone sees them, we What you do these days falls short.”
Mrs. Ye nodded, held the broken bracelet in her hand casually, and said: "I just hate that Shui Danyang is targeting us so much now, and throwing away all the affection we have cherished her since childhood. Even if it is So what if the matter of Chunchan used her? After all, it didn’t hurt her, did it? Instead, she only recognized Lin Daiyu’s hypocritical overtures.”
"No matter how good it is, so what? Doesn't Shui Danyang still want to marry far away from the frontier? Marrying a daughter in the boudoir doesn't even bother to marry a martial artist. I heard that General Na Xin once married his wife, but she died of illness. She Shui Danyang also But she is married to a widower." The mean and venomous smile could no longer hold up her former dignity, and the sarcasm and resentment distorted her pretty face, turning it into a hideous one!
High-rolled cloud fairy bun, red emerald beaded feather inlaid with bright pearls and emerald green five-phoenix hairpin, red gold inlaid with gemstones and butterfly-shaped silk-wrapped flat hairpin, lightly fastened behind the bun.Red silk flowers adorned with Bohai pearls are winding around the side of the bun, rice beads are connected to ginkgo earrings, and the long hanging tails are embroidered with peonies.
The scattered clothes covered the sky like the morning glow, and her cheeks were as red as a begonia.The golden dark pattern brings out the exquisiteness and beauty of Zhenghong's clothes more and more. The blooming colorful peonies are full of elegance and luxury, and the opened hem of the clothes is adorned with dandelions made of Bohai pearls.The moment he opened his arms, it was like a red butterfly about to spread its wings and leave. In the Chaoyang Pavilion, Shui Danyang's belongings had already been packed.
Slender white fingers slowly slid over the furnishings in the house, the rosewood canopy bed carved with dripping water, the pearl tassels hanging from the bed curtain, and the wishful and auspicious purse hanging on the bed.The place where I grew up for 17 years left suddenly, and the sadness of parting was beyond words.I don't know how many tears fell on the pillow last night, and I barely fell asleep after tossing and turning. At this moment, looking at the spots on the pillow, I couldn't help crying again.
Princess Beijing sat on the couch and looked at her daughter in a wedding dress, with a more complicated expression on her face.There is the joy of having a girl in my family who has just grown up, and there is also the pain and desolation of being separated forever.Walked forward slowly, took Danyang's arm and got up, straightened her wedding gown, and said slowly: "When you get married, you become the mistress of the house, and you can't do things recklessly. You should be filial to your parents-in-law and serve your husband. Open branches and leaves for the Xin family as soon as possible." After a pause, with tears in his eyes, he said: "The Xin family has been generals in the past, and the Yanming Pass is more complicated than the people in Jingdu. You have to think about everything. Do it yourself."
"Toffee, the lord just ordered someone to send the word that the Xin family's wedding sedan chair is almost at the gate of the mansion." The tears from the corners of Princess Beijing's eyes could no longer hold back and fell on Shui Danyang's red wedding dress.He stretched out his arms to hug her and patted her gently in his bosom, forcibly holding back his tears, took a hipa from Xi Niang's hand and covered her with it.
The bright red tassels slowly fell down until they completely covered Shui Danyang's face, and Qing Zhu helped Princess Beijing to sit upright.With the help of the servant girl, Danyang knelt in front of Princess Beijing, choked up and said, "Daughter thanks mother and concubine for her kindness in nurturing, I hope mother and concubine will take good care of her, my daughter is gone!"
The smoky figure went far away, and the brocade cloak wrapped around his arms slowly fluttered and fluttered with the summer wind, submerged behind the frame full of bright red roses, and the branches, leaves and flowers wrapped around the pergola seemed to be a natural barrier to block the last gaze.
The sound of silk and bamboo orchestras rang out, and the high-hanging firecrackers resounded through half of the sky with the light of the setting off. The red wrapping paper fluttered in the green smoke like flowers falling from the sky, and the pungent smell of saltpeter filled the Qin'an Temple. among.
The red wedding dress trimmed with black is a little bit stable in the joy.Tall and upright, all of them have the fierce aura of a warrior.Looking at the slender figure who was helped out by the maid, she stepped forward and gently walked her trembling little hand through the Qin'an Hall.
Shui Rong lightly held Daiyu's little hand standing beside him, and caressed the smooth touch carefully, there was a feeling of parting between his pale face.Staring at Shui Danyang, who was carried into the wedding sedan chair by Xin Moyu, and Xipa, who was slowly jumping with the steps of walking, the hidden face was looming.Daiyu lowered her head to hide the unbearable tears in her eyes, and watched the tears slip down into the embroidered hibiscus in the dress room, the color was a little darker, and she looked more beautiful and lifelike.
Last night, I talked and laughed happily with her, comforting her uneasiness and apprehension.Today, because I have to receive guests from the mansion, I have no chance to speak a word with her.Seeing her figure submerged in a sea of red, Daiyu raised her delicate face with a smile in her tears.She should be happy to marry out of the Beijing Prince's Mansion and lead a life that completely belongs to her, right?Xin Moyu's every move is not ruthless to her, who said that a martial artist can't marry?The tenderness of the iron man, if he can capture his heart, Bailian Steel will also become soft around the fingers!
The welcoming team has already started to move forward, the red shadow in front of them has gradually disappeared, and the sound of the thin orchestra and bamboo flute has also dissipated.Shui Rong looked down at the tears hanging from the corners of Daiyu's eyes, gently raised her wrist to wipe away the pearl-like crystals, walked into Qin'an Hall with her little hand, and greeted the congratulatory guests.
Xin Moyu's general's mansion was far away at Yanming Pass, and the wedding party could only be sent to Bijiao Villa, fifty miles outside the city.It was the other courtyard bestowed by the Holy One on Prince Beijing's Mansion, and it was also the place where King Taiwang of Beijing rested for the last time.The green weeping willows brushed against the white walls and black tiles of the building, and the blue-gray terrazzo steps were not deliberately cleaned. They were stained with blue moss left over from the rainy season, and the greenness seemed to be drawn with ink pens.
In addition to the weeping willows all over the ground in Bijiao Villa, there are only pure white gardenias that are full of strong fragrance in the wind.When Shui Rong rode the horse with Daiyu in his arms, the sound of the horse's hooves rattled on the bluestone road.
The white wall shone brightly under the moonlight, and before it got close, the rich and elegant fragrance of gardenias had already wafted in the wind. Daiyu sniffed it in surprise, and said softly, somewhat nostalgic: "The gardenias here The gardenias are so fragrant, the place next to the wall must be full of gardenias." Slightly raising his head, he saw the snow-white gardenias peeking out of the wall, and they were breathing their fragrance in the dark of night.
Shui Rong held the rein in his hand, turned his eyes to look at the snow-white gardenia, frowned slightly and thought about it, and said: "Father Wang loved gardenia the most when he was alive, and it is even better to move here to recuperate in the last two years." I often sit under the gardenia flowers in a daze, and often sit for half a day without moving."
"Why?" Daiyu frowned slightly, she had never seen gardenias in the Beijing Palace, she did not expect that this Bijiao Villa was full of gardenias.In my memory, every time I throw myself into a warm embrace, it is the warmth with the aroma of gardenia.That clear and poetic face is close in front of her eyes, still with a faint doting smile, so beautiful like a gardenia as white as an ice flower!
Shui Rong's brows were deeply furrowed as if caught in some kind of memory, and after a long while he said slowly: "My concubine doesn't like gardenias, but my father likes it very much." I remember that after the death of the Queen Mother of Beijing, the Queen Mother of Beijing ordered someone to After cutting off the two gardenias in the courtyard where Prince Beijing lived before his death, the gardenias will be extinct in the Palace of Prince Beijing!
The horseshoes clattered to the gate of Bijiao Mountain Villa, and the red lantern hanging on the gate revealed a hazy light.Shui Rong got off his horse, and the steward of Bijiao Villa had already come forward, Shui Rong handed over the reins to him, gently took Daiyu's little hand and asked as he walked, "Which courtyard do the princess and the horses stay in?"
The housekeeper bowed respectfully, and said: "Junma and the princess only stayed here for two hours, and then set off all the way to the northwest." Shui Rong paused, but then smiled lightly: "It really is Xin Moyu The way of doing things." There is no sloppiness at all, and the matter is over, and I don't want to stay here for even a moment.
There was a hint of disappointment on Daiyu's white face, and she sighed softly: "I thought I could still see Danyang." Shui Rong smiled nonchalantly, walked in holding Daiyu's little hand, and said : "That's fine, since it's already destined to be separated, why bother to meet again? It's so inseparable, tears are all over my face." Gardenias all over the courtyard imprinted in front of my eyes, and the rich fragrance filled the whole place with the night wind. Bijiao Villa.
The moonlight was like water staining her clothes and flicking her sleeves, Daiyu's eyebrows stretched slightly, she raised her sleeves and walked to the gardenia, leaned over to hold the gardenia and sniffed it gently.The pure white skirt was submerged in the green leaves and white flowers, and the light sleeves were also covered with the fragrance of gardenia.Jiaojiao's face is elegant and refined, like a flower fairy under the moon!
Stopping and walking along the way, Daiyu couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes.Except for the green willows and Fufeng, there are no other flowers here, except for the gardenias that are full of gardens, which are as white as snow.A bend of clear water next to the white wall and black tiles floats the pure white petals blown down by the wind, and the rushing water flows out of the villa along the square hole made in the corner of the wall.
Shui Rong pulled Daiyu, who was squatting by the wall and thinking carefully, to get up, angrily and amusedly said: "It's so cold, why did you squat on the ground?" Depicting, said softly: "The painting on it is also gardenia."
Shui Rong squinted his eyes for a while, and said with a slight smile: "All the decorations and carvings in the entire Bijiao Villa are all gardenias." Pointing to the dripping tiles on his finger, he said: "All the decorations and structures here are his. I designed it myself." Daiyu looked up for a moment, and sure enough, all the carvings and depictions are all in the shape of gardenias, which shows how obsessed Prince Beijing is with gardenias.
"Snow porch and ice flowers are cool and clear, and the deep part of the song is full of spirit. A crescent moon wind draws the shadow, secretly sending delicate fragrance into the painting garden." Daiyu read this poem lightly, looking at Daiyu in amazement, Shui Rong, Said: "Dai'er also knows this poem?" Daiyu looked up at Shui Rong in surprise, nodded, and said: "Mother loved gardenias very much when she was alive, and she also liked this "Gardenia Poem" very much. Rong Ying, what's the matter? Do you like it too?"
Shui Rong nodded slightly, with a pensive expression, quietly smiled and said: "I like it!" He lovingly closed the lapel of her clothes, embraced Daiyu, who was full of gardenia fragrance, in his arms, and hugged her. He whispered softly in his ear: "Gardenias and this "Gardenia Poem" are not allowed to be mentioned in front of the concubine mother, she doesn't like gardenias."
Daiyu raised her head and looked into his gloomy eyes inexplicably, but she nodded and said with a smile: "Since the mother concubine doesn't like it, then Dai'er won't mention a single word about gardenias in front of her, Rong Ying don't worry Shui Rong nodded, kissed her forehead appreciatively, and said with a smile: "My Dai'er Bingxue is still smart." He took her little hand lightly and walked to the door, saying: "It's getting late, let's go early Go back soon."
Nestled in Shui Rong's arms, the cloak and hood wrapped her jade-like little face, her bright eyes were revealed from the middle, looking back carefully at Bijiao Villa, which was gradually disappearing, she always felt that there was something wrong here.Shaking her head, a helpless voice with a watery smile came from above her head, "Dai'er, what are you doing shaking your head here? Be careful!" The big hands clasped around her waist became tighter, enveloping her tightly in the warm In the embrace, all wind and sound are blocked.
Daiyu smiled sweetly and snuggled closer to his arms, hugging his waist so that he could ride his horse forward with peace of mind.There was only the whistling wind in her ears, as if flying in the clouds made Daiyu feel unspeakably comfortable and happy.Looking up at Shui Rong who was looking ahead, he tugged at the skirt of his shirt.
Shui Rong glanced at her questioningly, and continued to look at the road in the dark night.Daiyu swallowed, bit her lips and looked at him, said: "Rong Ying, I want to learn how to ride a horse, can you teach me?" Reining in the horse, Shui Rong looked down at her clear and curious eyes, Dan asked, "Why does Dai'er suddenly want to learn how to ride a horse?"
Daiyu clutched at his shoulders and knelt on the horse's back, wrinkled her nose and said, "Everything I want to learn comes to me suddenly. How do I know that I suddenly want to learn how to ride a horse? I just want to learn how to ride a horse." Learn, I want to ride horses with you." He would not be so stingy to let her learn to ride a horse, Daiyu pouted, looking at his thin lips unwillingly, for fear that he would say no .
Shui Rong couldn't laugh after hearing her explanation, what kind of explanation was this.After a moment of silence, a smile appeared on the corners of her lips, and she looked up and down evilly at her thin body.Helping her to sit up and hugging her tightly again, she galloped the horse with her legs clamped around the belly of the horse, and her playful laughter was caught in her ears by the night wind, "Well, it's not impossible." Daiyu listened carefully, and raised her voice in water He laughed loudly and said, "As long as Dai'er can double her body weight, then I will teach you how to ride a horse!"
Daiyu twisted his waist angrily, Shui Rong grabbed her hand, and said with a smile, "If you don't want both of us to fall, just sit down obediently." Daiyu pursed her lips, thinking about him The truth in the words, decided to sit down obediently.Holding his waist tightly and leaning against his chest, listening to the steady heartbeat, sleepiness welled up.
Shui Rong looked down at Daiyu who was sleeping soundly with her eyes closed, a gentle and doting smile overflowed from the corner of her mouth, and wrapped her in the cloak.The black horse galloped on the wide avenue under the moonlight, and the moon-white figure galloped away like a rainbow.
Ye Zhilan bit her lips tightly to hide the resentment in her eyes, but the Mrs. Gao Ming sitting beside her couldn't help lowering her head and laughing out loud.Who doesn't know what Ye Zhilan did the year before last?Now that the family members of the Beijing Palace are in full swing, they can still sit here with a cheeky face, it's truly extraordinary.
"I heard that the bridegroom officer is a person who kills heads without blinking. Danyang will marry him in the future. I really have to be careful." Seeing her daughter being ridiculed and made fun of, Mrs. Ye Xu couldn't help it anymore. , looking up at Shui Danyang, who seemed to be making fun of him, but actually held a gun with a stick.
Princess Beijing frowned slightly and looked at Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Ye, with a trace of anger in her cold eyes, she placed the teacup heavily on the high table, the crisp sound made Mrs. Ye shut up immediately, Shui Danyang blushed. Looking at Mrs. Ye with a sneer smile, she said: "No need for Mrs. Ye to worry about these things, Mrs. Ye has no choice but to marry off her daughter."
Xu's complexion immediately sank, and she looked at the Princess of Beijing and said, "Take a look, this Danyang's mouth is becoming more and more clever. After all, I am also her elder, right? Why did she keep talking more and more? It's in order."
Princess Beijing sorted out the pattern of autumn chrysanthemums on her cuffs with a faint smile, and said indifferently: "Mrs. Ye watched her grow up and praised her for being a straightforward person in the past. Why don't you like her a little today? Straight to the point?" Then he turned his head and reprimanded lightly: "What are you talking about in front of the elders? Some people don't like to listen, why make everyone unhappy, they are all about to get married, why don't you understand The truth of speaking human words in front of people?"
Uncontrollable sneers came from the banquet, and the faces of Ye's mother and daughter looked more like a fruit shop with all kinds of colors.Daiyu's eyes were like autumn water falling in a deep pool, with some golden leaves rippling in circles, her face was calm and unwavering looking at Ye Zhilan who got up all dressed up, her eyelids slightly lowered, and a faint smile overflowed.
"It's all Zhilan's fault, Princess Chengning is offended, please forgive me." She bowed her knees dignifiedly and saluted, her pale face with drooping eyebrows looked really pitiful from above.Daiyu stroked the clear tea in the cup, watching the scattered green leaves gently floating in the green tea.
Princess Beijing raised her hand to signal her to sit down, looked at the wives who were drinking tea with a smile, and said slowly: "If you don't know, you may think that you are not here to congratulate Danyang, but to disrupt the situation. But that's all, Cheng Ning I have been spoiled by me since I was a child, no matter whether I should say a lot of words, as long as I think of it, I will rush out, and I won’t even think about it.”
Concubine Dongping looked at Concubine Xining with a slight smile, and said with a smile: "With the pampering temperament of parents and elder brothers, it is inevitable that one will be arrogant and indulgent. Which one of us has not come here like this? The dignity of the princess of the royal family, the etiquette that has been raised since childhood The rules are not bad at all, I just look at Danyang very well."
Everyone's sincere or superficial smiles melted away the entanglement just now, but Ye Zhilan's smiling eyes showed a bit of sharpness.Shui Danyang raised his eyebrows and looked at her quietly until she closed her eyes and lowered her head.
Walking in the garden, kicking the small stones under his feet into the opposite lake, Shui Danyang twisted the embroidered handkerchief in his hand bitterly, and said: "I really don't know how thick-skinned they are, but they can come to the door again and sit in the guest seat In fact, I have never seen such a faceless and skinny person in my age."
Daiyu supported Zijuan's arm and walked by her side, staring at her angry face, smiled slightly: "What is Danyang angry about? We know exactly what kind of character she is, so we just need to be careful about her." Shui Danyang twisted the embroidered handkerchief and leaned on Daiyu's arm, refusing to move, saying: "She is hard to guard against, and now I only worry about her harm to Mrs. Wang in the future."
Daiyu frowned in thought, and said with a slight smile, "Don't worry about Danyang, I have my own concerns about these things." The deeper the person hides, the more scheming she is, and the current situation is like a fog, and she can't see clearly what is going on in her heart. Maybe she didn't have to guess about the measurement, because the Fengyi Palace was behind the Ye Mansion.
Daiyu leaned on the imperial concubine's couch with the scroll in her hand and watched carefully, the fist-sized Ye Mingzhu overflowed with bright light behind the tulle.Shui Rong stepped forward to take away the book in her hand, Daiyu raised her head to look at him, and said with a faint smile, "Have you finished reading Rong Ying's official documents?"
Shui Rong replied casually, took the rhino horn comb on the dressing table and gently combed her dry hair, the smooth and watery blue hair was very cool and comfortable.Daiyu stretched her arms around his waist, raised her head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Shui Rong frowned and thought for a while, then walked to the desk with Daiyu on his arm, and opened the box on the table, Daiyu looked at the jade bracelet in the box in surprise, and said: "Hasn't Rongying returned it to Mr. Pan? "Shui Rong shook his head, fixedly stared at Daiyu's bright autumn eyes, held her in his arms, and said: "It's not that I didn't return it, but Mr. Pan didn't want it."
Daiyu was even more puzzled, and said, "Why?" Could it be that Danyang didn't want it just because he had taken it before?Daiyu frowned.Shui Rong shook his head with a slight smile, and said, "He said it was a symbol of Pan's parents' daughter-in-law." Daiyu frowned, and suddenly remembered something she hadn't asked about for a long time, and said, "Rong Ying, Pan Chengjun really had a childhood sweetheart. your fiancée?"
The water-soluble probe held the blue silk around Daiyu's neck behind her back, and said lightly, "Does it matter?" Danyang was destined to marry Xin Moyu, and keeping her from knowing about many things would break her knot even more. Only by cutting off the past completely can we have the idea of pursuing it again.
Daiyu nodded knowing what he was thinking, maybe sometimes it is a blessing not to know, "In fact, it is silly happiness to know nothing, knowing too much, happiness is also slowly passing away in the process of exploring Exhausted. If so, I'd rather not know anything."
Thinking of this, Daiyu sneered, a strong sense of sadness rippled from her heart, bitterness was like twisting the lotus seeds that hadn't been picked out.Is the mere new top scholar worthy of the Holy Majesty's decree to bestow a marriage?It was nothing more than to use this to break Danyang's thoughts, so that Danyang would marry Xin Moyu willingly and become a pawn in his hands.Staring at this jade bracelet, many things seemed to come to mind clearly. Although Shui Rong didn't say anything, Daiyu could vaguely guess it.
Shui Lu left the mansion privately and brought nearly 200 people to appear near the capital. Doesn't Shui Shu really know?Or wait and see what happens to fuel the flames in order to achieve the purpose in your heart?After all, they are the chess pieces on the chessboard that allow him to control, pushing the Beijing Palace to the target of public criticism.
"Although we don't want to find out, the deeper some secrets are hidden, the more they can arouse people's curiosity." Shui Rong gently stroked her sarcastic face, and said with a light smile: "Daier understands more and more now. , getting more and more annoyed." Leaning over and kissing her brow and eyes, he said lightly, "Not all the pieces on the chessboard can go according to his wishes, and sometimes the situation forces him to make a move." The gloomy eyes were full of coldness, Daiyu held his handsome cheek on tiptoe, giggled and said, "You look more and more like Hao Ze."
The tired look in Daiyu's eyes made Shui Rong smile, followed her words to change the subject, grabbed her troublesome hand, gently took her into his arms, and said, "Am I like Hao Ze?" As he spoke, his big hand reached out to her waist and tightly grasped her girdle, making it impossible for her to escape.
Sensing his intention, Daiyu quickly wanted to dodge and dodge.Water-melting iron arms tightly wrapped her around her, with slender fingers on her waist, she was out of breath laughing, leaned softly on his chest, and smiled intermittently: "Okay, Rong Ying Rong Ying is not like Hao Ze, Hao Ze is like Rong Ying in this head office, right?" The smile on the corner of his lips made Shui Rong want to pick it off, and the dense kisses were lingering.
"Why is mother so angry?" Ye Zhilan squatted down and picked up the broken jade bracelet on the ground, and said, "What did mother drop this beautiful jade bracelet?" Mrs. Ye looked at Xu with disgust. Looking at the jade bracelet, he sneered and said, "It was given to my mother by the princess of Beijing, but now my mother just feels disgusted when she looks at it."
Ye Zhilan walked over slowly, put the jade bracelet on the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, and said indifferently: "Since it was a gift from the concubine, the concubine mother should keep it well." Looking up at Mrs. Ye, she said: "Mother, don't tell me Have you forgotten your father's instructions? The wealth and wealth of our Ye family are all entrusted to King Feng Yi. Although the ministers who support him have been hit one after another. But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and Prime Minister Li has been with him for many years How could it be possible for the business to fail in one fell swoop? Even if King Yicheng becomes the crown prince today, I am afraid that his position in the East Palace will not be secure."
Looking at her daughter's steady eyebrows, those confident eyes full of planning and stability, she sighed and took her hand, saying, "My son, it's not too much to honor your mother with your intelligence and intelligence." , but he misidentified the person and paid the wrong infatuation."
Ye Zhilan's eyes darkened and she couldn't hide her hatred. Her cold tone was like icy stings on her face, and she said coldly: "These shameful daughters are always in my heart. The most important thing now is to let the princess of Beijing be right. Let's let go of our guard and treat our Ye Mansion as before. At that time, it will be much easier to do what we want to do. The seat of Princess Beijing is mine. Since I can't get it, I will never let Lin Daiyu Sit comfortably." He let out a long breath, and said regretfully, "It's just hateful, so many archers sent out by King Fengyi failed to shoot her, so her life is so precious? "
Mrs. Ye sneered and said: "I saw her frail body and couldn't bear the slightest fright. She said that she had to use us for something, and one day she couldn't bear to die." The trace of hatred on her face distorted the beauty On his face, the lines and lines marked by the years are also clearly displayed, and the corners of his lips are pursed with the vicissitudes and oldness of the weather.
Ye Zhilan sneered and handed the broken jade bracelet to Mrs. Ye's hand, saying: "The things bestowed by Princess Beijing are all in booklets, mother should put them away earlier, if someone sees them, we What you do these days falls short.”
Mrs. Ye nodded, held the broken bracelet in her hand casually, and said: "I just hate that Shui Danyang is targeting us so much now, and throwing away all the affection we have cherished her since childhood. Even if it is So what if the matter of Chunchan used her? After all, it didn’t hurt her, did it? Instead, she only recognized Lin Daiyu’s hypocritical overtures.”
"No matter how good it is, so what? Doesn't Shui Danyang still want to marry far away from the frontier? Marrying a daughter in the boudoir doesn't even bother to marry a martial artist. I heard that General Na Xin once married his wife, but she died of illness. She Shui Danyang also But she is married to a widower." The mean and venomous smile could no longer hold up her former dignity, and the sarcasm and resentment distorted her pretty face, turning it into a hideous one!
High-rolled cloud fairy bun, red emerald beaded feather inlaid with bright pearls and emerald green five-phoenix hairpin, red gold inlaid with gemstones and butterfly-shaped silk-wrapped flat hairpin, lightly fastened behind the bun.Red silk flowers adorned with Bohai pearls are winding around the side of the bun, rice beads are connected to ginkgo earrings, and the long hanging tails are embroidered with peonies.
The scattered clothes covered the sky like the morning glow, and her cheeks were as red as a begonia.The golden dark pattern brings out the exquisiteness and beauty of Zhenghong's clothes more and more. The blooming colorful peonies are full of elegance and luxury, and the opened hem of the clothes is adorned with dandelions made of Bohai pearls.The moment he opened his arms, it was like a red butterfly about to spread its wings and leave. In the Chaoyang Pavilion, Shui Danyang's belongings had already been packed.
Slender white fingers slowly slid over the furnishings in the house, the rosewood canopy bed carved with dripping water, the pearl tassels hanging from the bed curtain, and the wishful and auspicious purse hanging on the bed.The place where I grew up for 17 years left suddenly, and the sadness of parting was beyond words.I don't know how many tears fell on the pillow last night, and I barely fell asleep after tossing and turning. At this moment, looking at the spots on the pillow, I couldn't help crying again.
Princess Beijing sat on the couch and looked at her daughter in a wedding dress, with a more complicated expression on her face.There is the joy of having a girl in my family who has just grown up, and there is also the pain and desolation of being separated forever.Walked forward slowly, took Danyang's arm and got up, straightened her wedding gown, and said slowly: "When you get married, you become the mistress of the house, and you can't do things recklessly. You should be filial to your parents-in-law and serve your husband. Open branches and leaves for the Xin family as soon as possible." After a pause, with tears in his eyes, he said: "The Xin family has been generals in the past, and the Yanming Pass is more complicated than the people in Jingdu. You have to think about everything. Do it yourself."
"Toffee, the lord just ordered someone to send the word that the Xin family's wedding sedan chair is almost at the gate of the mansion." The tears from the corners of Princess Beijing's eyes could no longer hold back and fell on Shui Danyang's red wedding dress.He stretched out his arms to hug her and patted her gently in his bosom, forcibly holding back his tears, took a hipa from Xi Niang's hand and covered her with it.
The bright red tassels slowly fell down until they completely covered Shui Danyang's face, and Qing Zhu helped Princess Beijing to sit upright.With the help of the servant girl, Danyang knelt in front of Princess Beijing, choked up and said, "Daughter thanks mother and concubine for her kindness in nurturing, I hope mother and concubine will take good care of her, my daughter is gone!"
The smoky figure went far away, and the brocade cloak wrapped around his arms slowly fluttered and fluttered with the summer wind, submerged behind the frame full of bright red roses, and the branches, leaves and flowers wrapped around the pergola seemed to be a natural barrier to block the last gaze.
The sound of silk and bamboo orchestras rang out, and the high-hanging firecrackers resounded through half of the sky with the light of the setting off. The red wrapping paper fluttered in the green smoke like flowers falling from the sky, and the pungent smell of saltpeter filled the Qin'an Temple. among.
The red wedding dress trimmed with black is a little bit stable in the joy.Tall and upright, all of them have the fierce aura of a warrior.Looking at the slender figure who was helped out by the maid, she stepped forward and gently walked her trembling little hand through the Qin'an Hall.
Shui Rong lightly held Daiyu's little hand standing beside him, and caressed the smooth touch carefully, there was a feeling of parting between his pale face.Staring at Shui Danyang, who was carried into the wedding sedan chair by Xin Moyu, and Xipa, who was slowly jumping with the steps of walking, the hidden face was looming.Daiyu lowered her head to hide the unbearable tears in her eyes, and watched the tears slip down into the embroidered hibiscus in the dress room, the color was a little darker, and she looked more beautiful and lifelike.
Last night, I talked and laughed happily with her, comforting her uneasiness and apprehension.Today, because I have to receive guests from the mansion, I have no chance to speak a word with her.Seeing her figure submerged in a sea of red, Daiyu raised her delicate face with a smile in her tears.She should be happy to marry out of the Beijing Prince's Mansion and lead a life that completely belongs to her, right?Xin Moyu's every move is not ruthless to her, who said that a martial artist can't marry?The tenderness of the iron man, if he can capture his heart, Bailian Steel will also become soft around the fingers!
The welcoming team has already started to move forward, the red shadow in front of them has gradually disappeared, and the sound of the thin orchestra and bamboo flute has also dissipated.Shui Rong looked down at the tears hanging from the corners of Daiyu's eyes, gently raised her wrist to wipe away the pearl-like crystals, walked into Qin'an Hall with her little hand, and greeted the congratulatory guests.
Xin Moyu's general's mansion was far away at Yanming Pass, and the wedding party could only be sent to Bijiao Villa, fifty miles outside the city.It was the other courtyard bestowed by the Holy One on Prince Beijing's Mansion, and it was also the place where King Taiwang of Beijing rested for the last time.The green weeping willows brushed against the white walls and black tiles of the building, and the blue-gray terrazzo steps were not deliberately cleaned. They were stained with blue moss left over from the rainy season, and the greenness seemed to be drawn with ink pens.
In addition to the weeping willows all over the ground in Bijiao Villa, there are only pure white gardenias that are full of strong fragrance in the wind.When Shui Rong rode the horse with Daiyu in his arms, the sound of the horse's hooves rattled on the bluestone road.
The white wall shone brightly under the moonlight, and before it got close, the rich and elegant fragrance of gardenias had already wafted in the wind. Daiyu sniffed it in surprise, and said softly, somewhat nostalgic: "The gardenias here The gardenias are so fragrant, the place next to the wall must be full of gardenias." Slightly raising his head, he saw the snow-white gardenias peeking out of the wall, and they were breathing their fragrance in the dark of night.
Shui Rong held the rein in his hand, turned his eyes to look at the snow-white gardenia, frowned slightly and thought about it, and said: "Father Wang loved gardenia the most when he was alive, and it is even better to move here to recuperate in the last two years." I often sit under the gardenia flowers in a daze, and often sit for half a day without moving."
"Why?" Daiyu frowned slightly, she had never seen gardenias in the Beijing Palace, she did not expect that this Bijiao Villa was full of gardenias.In my memory, every time I throw myself into a warm embrace, it is the warmth with the aroma of gardenia.That clear and poetic face is close in front of her eyes, still with a faint doting smile, so beautiful like a gardenia as white as an ice flower!
Shui Rong's brows were deeply furrowed as if caught in some kind of memory, and after a long while he said slowly: "My concubine doesn't like gardenias, but my father likes it very much." I remember that after the death of the Queen Mother of Beijing, the Queen Mother of Beijing ordered someone to After cutting off the two gardenias in the courtyard where Prince Beijing lived before his death, the gardenias will be extinct in the Palace of Prince Beijing!
The horseshoes clattered to the gate of Bijiao Mountain Villa, and the red lantern hanging on the gate revealed a hazy light.Shui Rong got off his horse, and the steward of Bijiao Villa had already come forward, Shui Rong handed over the reins to him, gently took Daiyu's little hand and asked as he walked, "Which courtyard do the princess and the horses stay in?"
The housekeeper bowed respectfully, and said: "Junma and the princess only stayed here for two hours, and then set off all the way to the northwest." Shui Rong paused, but then smiled lightly: "It really is Xin Moyu The way of doing things." There is no sloppiness at all, and the matter is over, and I don't want to stay here for even a moment.
There was a hint of disappointment on Daiyu's white face, and she sighed softly: "I thought I could still see Danyang." Shui Rong smiled nonchalantly, walked in holding Daiyu's little hand, and said : "That's fine, since it's already destined to be separated, why bother to meet again? It's so inseparable, tears are all over my face." Gardenias all over the courtyard imprinted in front of my eyes, and the rich fragrance filled the whole place with the night wind. Bijiao Villa.
The moonlight was like water staining her clothes and flicking her sleeves, Daiyu's eyebrows stretched slightly, she raised her sleeves and walked to the gardenia, leaned over to hold the gardenia and sniffed it gently.The pure white skirt was submerged in the green leaves and white flowers, and the light sleeves were also covered with the fragrance of gardenia.Jiaojiao's face is elegant and refined, like a flower fairy under the moon!
Stopping and walking along the way, Daiyu couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes.Except for the green willows and Fufeng, there are no other flowers here, except for the gardenias that are full of gardens, which are as white as snow.A bend of clear water next to the white wall and black tiles floats the pure white petals blown down by the wind, and the rushing water flows out of the villa along the square hole made in the corner of the wall.
Shui Rong pulled Daiyu, who was squatting by the wall and thinking carefully, to get up, angrily and amusedly said: "It's so cold, why did you squat on the ground?" Depicting, said softly: "The painting on it is also gardenia."
Shui Rong squinted his eyes for a while, and said with a slight smile: "All the decorations and carvings in the entire Bijiao Villa are all gardenias." Pointing to the dripping tiles on his finger, he said: "All the decorations and structures here are his. I designed it myself." Daiyu looked up for a moment, and sure enough, all the carvings and depictions are all in the shape of gardenias, which shows how obsessed Prince Beijing is with gardenias.
"Snow porch and ice flowers are cool and clear, and the deep part of the song is full of spirit. A crescent moon wind draws the shadow, secretly sending delicate fragrance into the painting garden." Daiyu read this poem lightly, looking at Daiyu in amazement, Shui Rong, Said: "Dai'er also knows this poem?" Daiyu looked up at Shui Rong in surprise, nodded, and said: "Mother loved gardenias very much when she was alive, and she also liked this "Gardenia Poem" very much. Rong Ying, what's the matter? Do you like it too?"
Shui Rong nodded slightly, with a pensive expression, quietly smiled and said: "I like it!" He lovingly closed the lapel of her clothes, embraced Daiyu, who was full of gardenia fragrance, in his arms, and hugged her. He whispered softly in his ear: "Gardenias and this "Gardenia Poem" are not allowed to be mentioned in front of the concubine mother, she doesn't like gardenias."
Daiyu raised her head and looked into his gloomy eyes inexplicably, but she nodded and said with a smile: "Since the mother concubine doesn't like it, then Dai'er won't mention a single word about gardenias in front of her, Rong Ying don't worry Shui Rong nodded, kissed her forehead appreciatively, and said with a smile: "My Dai'er Bingxue is still smart." He took her little hand lightly and walked to the door, saying: "It's getting late, let's go early Go back soon."
Nestled in Shui Rong's arms, the cloak and hood wrapped her jade-like little face, her bright eyes were revealed from the middle, looking back carefully at Bijiao Villa, which was gradually disappearing, she always felt that there was something wrong here.Shaking her head, a helpless voice with a watery smile came from above her head, "Dai'er, what are you doing shaking your head here? Be careful!" The big hands clasped around her waist became tighter, enveloping her tightly in the warm In the embrace, all wind and sound are blocked.
Daiyu smiled sweetly and snuggled closer to his arms, hugging his waist so that he could ride his horse forward with peace of mind.There was only the whistling wind in her ears, as if flying in the clouds made Daiyu feel unspeakably comfortable and happy.Looking up at Shui Rong who was looking ahead, he tugged at the skirt of his shirt.
Shui Rong glanced at her questioningly, and continued to look at the road in the dark night.Daiyu swallowed, bit her lips and looked at him, said: "Rong Ying, I want to learn how to ride a horse, can you teach me?" Reining in the horse, Shui Rong looked down at her clear and curious eyes, Dan asked, "Why does Dai'er suddenly want to learn how to ride a horse?"
Daiyu clutched at his shoulders and knelt on the horse's back, wrinkled her nose and said, "Everything I want to learn comes to me suddenly. How do I know that I suddenly want to learn how to ride a horse? I just want to learn how to ride a horse." Learn, I want to ride horses with you." He would not be so stingy to let her learn to ride a horse, Daiyu pouted, looking at his thin lips unwillingly, for fear that he would say no .
Shui Rong couldn't laugh after hearing her explanation, what kind of explanation was this.After a moment of silence, a smile appeared on the corners of her lips, and she looked up and down evilly at her thin body.Helping her to sit up and hugging her tightly again, she galloped the horse with her legs clamped around the belly of the horse, and her playful laughter was caught in her ears by the night wind, "Well, it's not impossible." Daiyu listened carefully, and raised her voice in water He laughed loudly and said, "As long as Dai'er can double her body weight, then I will teach you how to ride a horse!"
Daiyu twisted his waist angrily, Shui Rong grabbed her hand, and said with a smile, "If you don't want both of us to fall, just sit down obediently." Daiyu pursed her lips, thinking about him The truth in the words, decided to sit down obediently.Holding his waist tightly and leaning against his chest, listening to the steady heartbeat, sleepiness welled up.
Shui Rong looked down at Daiyu who was sleeping soundly with her eyes closed, a gentle and doting smile overflowed from the corner of her mouth, and wrapped her in the cloak.The black horse galloped on the wide avenue under the moonlight, and the moon-white figure galloped away like a rainbow.
