The Rongjudai of the Red Chamber

Following Dai Quan's tortuous walk for quite a while, Daiyu stopped when she looked at the increasingly deserted road, and said calmly, "Where is Eunuch Dai going with this princess?"

Dai Quan's face trembled slightly, and he hurriedly bowed and said: "The slave will take the princess to find the prince, so that he can return to life." He didn't dare to look up at Daiyu's clear eyes, and lowered his eyes.

Daiyu smiled lightly and said, "Return to life?" She smiled coldly, "I don't know whose life Eunuch Dai is going to take back? The emperor?" Then Dai Quan didn't dare to answer when he heard Daiyu's words, and looked at him Without saying a word, Daiyu already understood seven or eight points in her heart.

From the last time he entered the palace until now, Shui Rong has never entered the court at all, let alone meeting Shui Chen?However, when Shui Rong entered the palace today, the Empress Dowager persuaded him to go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, so he followed Dai Quan to the Hall of Mental Cultivation just now!

He stopped and looked around quietly. The towering green pines covered the branches with white snow, and the red plums were like fat. It was an extremely rare and quiet place in this deep palace.

The maids and eunuchs following behind her didn't even know where Madam Li had gone, did they just get lost while meditating?

Withdrawing his gaze from looking around, he carefully examined Dai Quan's slightly frightened expression, and said, "Where is this place?" Then Dai Quan opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Dai Yu, "Don't tell this princess. , this is the shortcut to the Hall of Mental Cultivation." Dai Quan stopped his words coldly, but his delicate face standing against the wind was as cold as snow!

Dai Quan couldn't help wiping the sweat on his forehead, and his tongue couldn't help but get a little knotted, "Princess forgive me, slave, slave." The unfinished words stayed on the tip of his tongue, and he didn't dare to say more.

But in his heart he couldn't help crying secretly, the habits of these masters are becoming more and more difficult to serve, if the prince of Beijing knows about it, I'm afraid that his head will be lost, but if he doesn't bring the princess of Beijing, I'm afraid that I have no way out.

Stealing a peek at Daiyu's clear eyes, surrounded by a noble aura, involuntarily arouses a feeling of awe, not to mention, those bright eyes are more penetrating, and she dare not stay any longer.

The zigzag bamboo and plum groves, bluestone slab trails, one bend after another, all have the same scenery, and the distribution of plum blossoms is also the same.

Seeing the path of retreating in all directions, Daiyu quietly followed Dai Quan's footsteps, slowing down her pace but paying attention carefully, looking at the plum trees and bamboos, the cold wind blowing, and the sound of dragons moaning Gradually, there seems to be a hut in the shadows.

Surrounded by willows covered with dead branches, there is a palace in the distance, which seems to be in the direction of the cold palace. Daiyu is looking at her current seat, but her heart is extremely stable, and she wants to see what tricks they are up to.

Before entering the hut, she saw a person sitting at the stone table in front of the hut drinking tea, Dai Yu stopped in her tracks, the coldness on her face deepened, Dai Quan stepped forward and said: "I have seen the emperor."

The man turned around, who is it if it's not Shui Chen?Shui Chen waved Dai Quan to step back, looked at Daiyu standing quietly under the red plums in the bamboo grove, was even more surprised at Daiyu's fearlessness, and said with a faint smile: "Princess Rong is so courageous, she is worthy of being loved by the younger brother of Rong Wang. A peerless beauty who is like a treasure."

Calmness in the face of danger, if not a reckless person, or a person who is very sure in his heart, the calculations in his heart must be difficult to fathom, this is something that Shui Chen admires, and the eyes that look at Daiyu become more and more profound.

Listening to the indignity in Shui Chen's words, Daiyu frowned even more, and looked at Shui Chen coldly, "As the king of a country, the emperor leads the people of the world, and he has such a leisurely attitude. A concubine is just an ordinary woman, and cannot afford such a holy praise from the emperor."

Sneering words poured out, causing Shui Chen to suffocate, touched his nose, and said: "It's because I have said something wrong, Princess Rong, don't take offense." Daiyu looked at him coldly, but she didn't speech.

Feeling a little embarrassed by Daiyu's gaze, Shui Chen turned around and walked to the stone table, and said, "Princess Rong, do you know why I took so much trouble to invite you here today?"

Daiyu stood under the plum tree calmly, but did not answer.

I didn't expect Daiyu to answer at all, so Shuichen also smiled lightly and said: "I know what's in your heart, and I also have some thoughts in my heart."

Daiyu interrupted Shui Chen's words lightly, and said: "What is the emperor thinking in his heart, concubines, women and children don't want to know, and they don't know. Dare to go beyond half a step, if the emperor has nothing to do, please Rong Chenqie to leave first."

Turning around and about to leave, the anger on his face became heavier and heavier, Shui Chen quickly stepped forward to block Daiyu's way, and said: "Is it possible that Princess Rong hates seeing me so much?"

Daiyu took three big steps back, looked at Shuichen coldly, and said: "Since ancient times, 'the emperor does not see his wife', the emperor, as the ninth and fifth lord, should understand these truths, don't lose the dignity you should have It is."

The cold and angry tone no longer had the respect it should have, but instead it was a sharp-tongued disgust. Seeing the disgust and indifference in Daiyu's eyes, Shui Chen couldn't help trembling, and there was a wry smile on the corner of his mouth!It turned out that in her heart, she was so disgusting.

Shui Chen burst out laughing out loud, making Daiyu frowned even more, she really hated staying here, she turned around and was about to leave, but she heard Shui Chen behind her say: "Could it be that Princess Rong is really cold-blooded?" Is it a ruthless person? Is it true that you can't see it?"

After hearing this, Daiyu's pretty face flushed immediately, she clenched her fists tightly, and said coldly: "Whether it's true or not, it has nothing to do with my concubine, let alone the slightest connection."

"If one day Brother Rong is no longer in this world, has Princess Rong ever thought about it?" Youyou's words actually made Daiyu's heart tremble, and the color on her face quickly faded, saying: "What did the emperor say?"

The anxiety in his heart became heavier and heavier, thinking that Shui Rong hadn't seen him back since he entered the palace today, and now hearing Shui Chen's words, he felt even more uneasy.

Shui Chen walked up to Daiyu, looked straight into Daiyu's eyes, and said: "I said, if one day Rong Wangdi is gone, has the princess ever thought about it?"

Hearing Shui Chen's words, Dai Yu loosened the creases between her eyebrows, her heart lightened suddenly, and a burst of lightness filled her heart. It turned out that Shui Rong had already been connected with her life before she knew it. If he is gone, then he will also go with him.

Looking up at Shui Chen, his face was as cold as ice, and he looked straight at him without dodging or hiding, and said, "I don't know if the emperor has ever heard such a sentence'I would rather die with ten thousand broken wings than split between the clouds'" The clear eyes like water, Ling Ran's unyielding arrogance, are all unyielding arrogance.

"I'd rather die with my broken Qiyi than I can't bear to split between the clouds," murmured these two sentences, his face was full of shock, it turned out that the promise of life and death was nothing more than that, the bitterness that appeared just now Tea leaves, nostalgic for the root of the tongue, bitter to the heart!

The cold wind was blowing, blowing the tassels on Daiyu's temples, and the heavy winter clothes were trembling slightly. Standing quietly between the snow and the sky, she seemed to be a holy and noble girl from the nine heavens, making people unattainable!

Meifeng frowned, as if he was savoring the words just now, he was speechless for a while, and the feelings entangled in his heart for a long time weighed heavily on him, it turned out that any ifs are impossible ifs.

Suddenly he smiled, but he heard movement outside the bamboo forest and plum forest, when he turned around to look, just as he was about to say something, he was hit on the cheek by a fist, and immediately fell to the ground!

When he was dizzy, he tried his best to stabilize his figure and stood up. When he came back to his senses, he saw Shui Rong's extremely cold and angry face, standing aside coldly with Daiyu in his arms.

Shui Chen stretched out his hand to wipe off the blood on his face, and said, "Brother Rong, you finally found this place." The laughing words in his mouth didn't seem to blame Shui Rong at all. , but he was relieved in his heart, after all, Shui Rong could come out and explain to himself, which saved a lot of things.

Ignoring Shui Chen, Shui Rong held Daiyu in his arms, couldn't hide his anxious eyes and looked at Daiyu carefully, seeing that Daiyu was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief, but looked at Shui Chen coldly. , without words.

Shui Chen caressed the painful cheeks, looked at Shui Rong and Daiyu's silence, and said with a smile: "At any rate, I am also the emperor of Yu Dynasty, and even more so, your emperor brother, so at least I should save some face for my younger brother. " Pointing to the small room behind him, said: "Wang brother, do you still remember this place?"

Shui Rong originally came here to find Daiyu, the anxiety in his heart can be imagined, he never looked at this place, even if it was a dragon's lake and a tiger's lair, he would have to venture there, now hearing what Shui Chen said, he raised his head to look around a bit.

Why don't you remember this place, this is the place where they avoided the Taifu and the former emperor when they were young, the bamboo forest and plum forest here were also planted by him and Shui Chen, this place is on the side of the cold palace, no one will come here Here, the only ones who know now are him, Shui Chen and Dai Quan who has been by Shui Chen's side all the time.

Knowing that Dai Quan was taking Daiyu to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the anxiety and fear in his heart became heavier and heavier, and he stayed at the side of the cold palace to see Madam Li anxiously ordering the maids to look for Daiyu, looking at the surrounding scenery , so he flew towards this side, and as expected, he had already seen Shuichen and Daiyu, and the anger in his heart can be imagined.

Seeing Shui Rong like this, Shui Chen walked to the stone table and sat down, and said, "Will Brother Rong and Princess Wang sit down and have a conversation with me?"

Shui Rong and Daiyu looked at each other, but Daiyu didn't want to stay here anymore, Shui Rong looked at Shui Chen silently for a while, and said a few words to Daiyu in a low voice, Daiyu looked at Shui Rong and agreed.

Sitting in the farthest place from Shuichen with Daiyu in his arms, he never let go of Daiyu's hand, looking at Shuichen indifferently.

Shui Chen put the poured tea in front of Shui Rong and Daiyu, but remained silent, looking at the falling white snow and red plum petals around the wooden pavilion, Shui Rong looked at Shui Chen lightly, equally silent.

After a long time, Shui Chen smiled and said: "Brother Wang must understand the purpose of inviting Princess Rong to come." Looking at Shui Rong's cold and indifferent eyes, Shui Chen said again: "Yes, I want you to come out."

Shui Rong gradually calmed down the anger in his heart, and said: "I don't know what advice does the emperor have for his younger brother to come out?" The cold sarcasm made Shui Chen feel uncomfortable.

"What I want is to let you come out and tell me clearly face to face."

"The matter of the Mu family, the empress mother has already made it very clear to the emperor, there is nothing to explain clearly, and there is no need for the emperor to play tricks." The displeasure is beyond words!

Shui Chen looked at Shui Rong's expression of tightly protecting Daiyu, and said: "For today's incident, I apologize to the princess." Standing up and bowing, both Shui Rong and Daiyu stood up in surprise.

As the Ninth Five-Year Lord, how honorable he is, how contemptuous the world is, for such an apology now, Shui Rong and Daiyu don't know how to talk about it.

Seeing Shui Rong and Daiyu's astonishment, the wry smile on Shui Chen's mouth became more and more serious, he pondered for a long time before he said: "Actually, you shouldn't keep this matter from me, after all, I'm also your elder brother, How can I not believe you?"

Containing the astonishment on his face, Shui Rong sat down with Daiyu in his arms, and said: "Please explain something to the emperor Rongchen." Shui Chen raised his hand, motioning for Shui Rong to say.

Shui Rong said lightly: "The emperor said he would believe us? In fact, the emperor has understood what the Mu family has done these years, but he has never believed it. The water seepage has not been removed. If the emperor finds out again, the emperor will definitely be distracted. Winning or losing is an unknown.”

Shui Chen is too suspicious. Although the Mu family has served the court for many years, Shui Chen has always been thinking of the master of the Mu family. admit.

Shui Chen stared blankly at Shui Rong, listened to Shui Rong's words, thought about the thoughts in his heart, and couldn't help laughing bitterly. I don't know what to do.

Fortunately, I didn't make a big mistake at the beginning, otherwise there would be no room for redemption.

Quietly looking at Shui Rong, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be too much estrangement between the two brothers. Over the years, Shui Rong's suspicion of him and Shui Rong's repeated forbearance, when he saw it at the beginning, was used as a bargaining chip for him to retreat. Tight.

Back then when he married Daiyu, he was secretly happy in his heart. After all, Shui Rong is a rare talent in literature, Taoism and martial arts. own talent.

Marrying the daughter of the Lin family, it sounds nice to say that she is the daughter of a former inspector, but in fact she is just a daughter who has fallen in the family. This is exactly what he wants. After all, Shui Ronggui is a prince, but he has never been married. Some people with ulterior motives have already come out with gossip, but the young lady of the rich and powerful family is not at ease after all.

Now that I think about it carefully, I can't help but feel admiration in my heart. The person who was sent to suppress the cholera rebellion these years, could it be someone who is related to Shui Rong? The people under his command have such talents, let alone the people behind him who are strategizing?

"These years, I was really wrong." He murmured, and a sigh of frustration overflowed. He had known it many years ago, and now he was defeated by Shui Rong, but he no longer felt too much dissatisfaction in his heart. Zhizun, the ruler of the world, but he has never been able to win against his brother who is all-rounder in civil and military affairs. There is a trace of wry smile and gratification contradictory, but it is a kind of relaxation!

Defeated, lost, defeated by Shui Rong, defeated the people in the world, but could not win against Shui Rong.What's more, there is such a peerless and strange woman by Shui Rong's side!

Looking up at Daiyu with a calm face, and looking at Shui Rong and Daiyu who were sitting together holding hands together, Shui Chen felt extremely sad and embarrassed. In this life, this woman will never have any contact with him. up.

"It's not wrong, it's in the hearts of the people, and I can't guess it." He knew what Shui Chen was thinking, and seeing Daiyu's displeased indifference, he didn't want to say any more.

Shui Chen took so much trouble to let Daiyu come over alone, not just to attract himself, but also for another purpose, but it can't be explained, holding Daiyu's slender hand tightly, the husband and wife looked at each other and smiled, but it was Clear joy and affection.

She didn't pay attention to Shui Chen anymore, took Daiyu's hand and stood up, but she had gradually forgiven him in her heart, after all he was her imperial brother, but she also hated his thoughts on Daiyu extremely.

Walking in the winding path, Shui Rong told Daiyu in detail about the mechanism of the path, seeing Daiyu's surprised expression, Shui Rong couldn't help but smile, holding Daiyu's little hand tightly with her big hand and going out go.

Shui Chen, who was walking behind them, looked at their holding hands, but felt an indescribable sadness in his heart!

Stepping out of the plum forest slowly, Nanny Li, who was guarding the corridor in front of the Leng Palace, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Daiyu and Shui dissolve, and was even more shocked when she saw Shui Chen who walked out afterwards, and hurried forward Salute with Shui Chen.

Shui Chen waved his hand and said: "Forget it, Madam Li, get up, Nanny Li will take Princess Beijing to the mother's harem first, and Prince Beijing and I will arrive later."

Shui Rong did not let go of Daiyu's hand, turned around and looked at Shui Chen coldly, wondering what tricks Shui Chen was going to do again.

Shui Chen smiled wryly, "Don't worry, Brother Wang, I just have a few words to tell you, and I have no other intentions."

Daiyu let go of Shui Rong's hand, and smiled softly, "I'll be waiting for you in the mother's harem." Shui Rong looked at her beautiful lotus face, finally nodded and said, "Okay, Dai'er is waiting for me in the mother's harem."

Nanny Li at the side hastily stepped forward to support Daiyu's hand, and said: "My lord, don't worry, the servant will definitely escort the wangfei to the empress dowager's side."

Shui Rong nodded, let go of Daiyu's hands, quietly watched the backs of Daiyu's group disappear, and then returned to look at Shuichen, looked at each other quietly, but was speechless.
