Chapter six hundred and thirty sixth boudoir honey language
It was rainy and windy last night, and I couldn't get rid of the remaining wine after a deep sleep. I tried asking the people behind the curtain, but the crabapples were still the same. Do you know, do you know? They should be green, fat, red and thin.
——Li Qingzhao in "Like a Dream: Rain and wind last night"
…
It's early spring in Chang'an, when it's warm and then cold, and the wintersweet and willows are weeping, each with its own melancholy.
Ever since Bai Fu politely rejected Princess Qingluan on the night of New Year's Eve, Princess Qingluan had not thought about food or tea, and became seriously ill and was bedridden for several months.
The weather was fine that day, and Crown Princess Dugu Xiaozhong went to Yuduzhai to visit the princess.
In the past, Princess Qingluan's Yuduzhai was the liveliest place in the palace. The ladies practiced martial arts and swords, swinging and fluttering butterflies, playing and teasing, and laughing.
As soon as it enters the rain, the door of Duzhai Hall is full of wintersweet branches and red and yellow flowers, which is refreshing. It is the flower viewing season, but the huge courtyard is silent.
The maids were cleaning quietly, with gentle hands and feet, not daring to breathe. Everyone was worried and had a gloomy look on their face.
Entering the dormitory, the hall is dark and gloomy, the air is turbid, and the strong smell of herbs remains.
Dugu Xiaozhong frowned and scolded: "The crowd is so tight that even a good person becomes sick. Come on, open the curtains and open the flower window to let some air in."
Princess Qingluan's personal maid Yuan Xiaoer and Little Lantern saluted her and said: "Reporting to the Crown Princess, the imperial doctor said that the Princess is weak and cannot bear the wind."
Dugu Xiaozhong said angrily: "I am also proficient in medicine, so don't bring imperial doctors to me. You take care of me like this, no wonder the princess has not recovered for so long!"
Yuan Xiaoer and Xiao Lantern also knew that Dugu Xiaozhong had superb medical skills, so they hurriedly took the order.
Opening the hibiscus embroidered curtains, the golden sunlight shines through the flower spirit window and spreads all over the bedroom, like long osmanthus rain, and the spring light suddenly appears.
Dugu Xiaozhong suddenly remembered that many years ago, it was also such an early spring afternoon. At the spring dawn on the Changdi, a young man dressed in white as snow was filled with sunlight.
The young man smiled warmly and brightly, and smiled at her: "Miss Dugu, if you ask me, sunshine is the best painter in the world."
Dugu Xiaozhong suddenly felt so beautiful, as if just yesterday...
A burst of fresh early spring air came in, like wind through the pine forest, dispersing the musty smell in the dormitory.
After opening the gauze curtain, Yuan Xiaoer and Xiao Lantern took the pillows and asked Princess Qingluan to sit up from the bedside and lean on the pillows.
Dugu Xiaozhong was shocked. After not seeing her for several days, Princess Qingluan became thinner again, her face was pale and bloodless.
It was the flower season, but the princess's green silk hair fell off in handfuls.
When taking the pulse, Princess Qingluan's pulse is disturbed and her breath is like a hairpin, which is exactly the sign of restless mind and endless troubles.
Dugu Xiaozhong asked with concern: "Sister Qingluan, how is your appetite lately? The pigeon soup I recommended to you last time can replenish qi and blood. Can you take it on time?"
Princess Qingluan shook her head and replied feebly: "I don't want to drink a sip. Everything I eat tastes the same and tasteless."
Dugu Xiaozhong asked softly: "Did you have bad sleep and couldn't sleep all night?"
Princess Qingluan nodded and sighed: "Sister, I'm afraid I won't be able to recover from this illness. When you have free time, please ask the prince brother to come and see me. I'm afraid that one day, he won't be able to see me anymore."
"What nonsense!" Dugu Xiaochongyang said angrily, and lightly slapped the back of Princess Qingluan's hand.
Dugu Xiaozhong said: "Heart disease still needs heart medicine to cure. I came here this time and brought a prescription to keep and cure you. But the premise is that you must cooperate, such as eating well and walking on the ground!"
Princess Qingluan struggled to squeeze out a smile and said: "Okay, I will listen to my sister."
Dugu Xiaozhong had already found out the cause of Princess Qingluan's illness from Yuan Xiao'er and Xiao Lantern. The reason why she came here today was because there was also a problem that Dugu Xiaozhong himself did not want to face.
This feeling cannot be explained, its meaning cannot be explained, and it cannot be buried...
Dugu Xiaozhong has been struggling with whether to tell the truth to Princess Qingluan. After all, this was the diary of his youth...
Love is a thing, like honey or medicine, which teaches you to live and die together without any regrets.
Seeing the haggard Princess Qingluan, Dugu Xiaozhong finally made up his mind. Some things have passed, and they have passed. The beauty of adulthood is not a blessing.
Dugu Xiaozhong asked the maid to step back and leaned beside Princess Qingluan, whispering.
After hearing this, Princess Qingluan opened her beautiful big eyes with an incredible expression. She covered her mouth with an embroidered handkerchief and said, "Sister, have you also fallen in love with him?"
A blush flashed across Lonely Xiaozhong's face, and he said shyly: "Who doesn't have the first moment of love? Hiding Mr. Pianpian in your heart and thinking about him silently is the most beautiful time in this life."
Princess Qingluan stretched out her hand and gently held Dugu Xiaozhong's catkin.
Lonely Xiaozhong soon returned to normal, his eyes full of love, and he said to Princess Qingluan: "What I regret most is that I didn't persist to the end.
If I hadn't been so reserved and stayed by his side no matter what, I wouldn't have had what happened to Yu Wenba later on."
Princess Qingluan asked softly: "Then do you still like him now?"
Lonely Xiaozhong gently stroked Princess Qingluan's hair with his hand and said with a smile: "Silly girl, that is all in the past.
Although your royal brother is the crown prince, he is considerate and caring towards me.
We treat each other with respect as guests, and we play the piano and the harp in harmony, why do you think I am not satisfied and still miss this person?"
Princess Qingluan's eyebrows were filled with joy and she said proudly: "That's true. Although that boy is pretty good, how can he compare to my royal brother?"
Lonely Xiaozhong said: "What's the use of you being here, feeling sorry for yourself, crying and complaining? You can't see this pimple. As long as he doesn't get married for a day, he can't escape your grasp.
I inquired about it and found out that he was stationed in Shaanzhou and worked as a military envoy. He danced with guns and clubs all day long with a bunch of rough guys.
Let me tell you, get yourself well as soon as possible and go to him. Don't rely on him. If he doesn't obey, you can tie him up with a sword.
If it really doesn't work out, I'll ask my father to grant him a marriage and give him an imperial edict. I'll see if he accepts the edict and does he still dare to hide?
Princess Qingluan was so ashamed that she covered her face with a brocade quilt and said angrily: "I am so ashamed of myself. I can't be so shameless and let him be proud."
Gu Xiaozhong laughed and said: "What's wrong with not being ashamed? Don't forget, you are a majestic princess of the Tang Dynasty! You have to be a bit domineering and bully others! Haha"
Lonely Xiaozhong was talking, making himself laugh. The two beauties laughed together, overjoyed...
After Dugu Xiaozhong left, Princess Qingluan seemed to have taken a miraculous medicine and recovered without any treatment. Her silver bell-like laughter filled the entire palace.
"Yuanxiaoer, in addition to bird's nest and ginseng soup, I also want to eat meat! I want to make myself fatter as soon as possible.
Little Lantern, take out the Nanzhao Baique skirt that my father gave me. I want to try it on! If it doesn’t fit, ask the embroiderer to help me change it as soon as possible.
Where is my sword?
Rusty? No way, you are lazy every day and don’t even clean your sword! See if I don’t break your legs!
Armor! I also want armor!
I have said it many times, it is not a hunting suit for hunting, but a stomach for killing enemies in battle.
No?
I'm a princess, if you don't have any, please help me quickly and don't stare at me innocently with your peach blossom eyes!"
…
Walking out of Yuduzhai, Dugu Xiaozhong took a deep breath. Through the palace eaves, you can see the clear blue sky and the clouds within reach.
To be honest, Dugu Xiaozhong wouldn't want to share the past if he hadn't seen Princess Qingluan in agony.
As long as he doesn't belong to anyone else, I can still have some thoughts about him.
In the depth of the courtyard, when he was most depressed, Dugu Xiaozhong often fantasized about this ruthless young man coming in the wind, and without any explanation, he would be dragged into the strong wind in full view of everyone, and from then on, he would fall in love with the world and wander around the world.
Dugu Xiaozhong laughed at himself. He seemed to be comforting others, but actually he was comforting himself. If she had not misheard the news of his death, she would definitely not have followed her mother's arrangement.
It is better to imitate Li Tengkong, practice Taoism in Lushan Mountain, and never marry, so that this lover cannot let go and miss him for the rest of his life...
Now, I have helped others and embarrassed myself.
Maybe, before long, he would face the scene he was most afraid of: this young man and Qingluan, arm in arm, appeared in front of him and shouted respectfully, "I have met the emperor's wife!"
