As night fell slowly, the palace maids in the tent finished their work and everyone filed out. Because I was thinking about Cheng Huan, I hurriedly tidied up and walked out of the tent.
The little Shunzi outside the tent hit a thousand, bowed and said: "Madam, it's cold outside, I have an explanation. Madam, please go out and ask me to give you a verbal reminder." I felt warm in my heart. I went out with Minmin last night.
, his body was cold when he came back, so he kept giving the order to the people waiting around him. After giving him a nod, he turned around and went into the tent, adding a lynx monkey skin waistcoat.
When they arrived at the Thirteenth Camp, a guard outside the tent bowed and saluted, and after announcing something, he hurriedly opened the tent curtain, and Lu Wu's personal maid, Hong Yu, had already come forward. She humbly gave her a blessing, and just as she was about to speak, Lu Wu was already taking broken steps.
Out of pocket.
"I didn't know that your Majesty is coming, and I haven't made any preparations. I wonder if you have eaten yet?" I glanced over and saw that I had not yet used my chopsticks for dinner. I sat down and said with a smile, "I have already eaten. You eat first."
Ask Hongyu to make me a cup of tea." Before she finished speaking, Hongyu came over with a tray in hand and said, "I heard that your Majesty is very particular about drinking tea. If the tea I brew is not to your taste, I hope you will forgive me." After that,
Put the tea in front of me.
He waved his hand to Lu Wu to sit down, picked up the cup and took a sip. The fragrance was incomparable. I smiled at Lu Wu and said, "The master is elegant, and the little maid is clever." After hearing this, Hong Yu smiled like a flower. Lu Wu glanced at her and gave her a slight smile.
Nodding, Hongyu understood and left. Luwu then sat down, smiled and said softly: "Your Majesty, you praised me." Seeing that although she was smiling, there was a lonely look in her eyes, I sighed secretly in my heart.
The two of us were silent for a while. I took a sip of tea and put down the cup, and said, "Lvwu." She raised her head and said with a smile, "What do you want me to do?" Seeing her sitting upright and speaking in a decent manner, I sighed heavily.
He said in a tone: "Lvwu, do you have to talk like this?"
After she was slightly startled, she covered her mouth and chuckled: "Yeah, why do I look less and less like myself?" My heart tightened. We are all adults, no longer the young girls we used to be. We all know that the deepest parts of our hearts are
Her thoughts are hidden deep and she is as smart as a green leaf, so how could she not know it. But her words and deeds these days have shown everyone that she is heartbroken and at a loss.
I stared at her and said, "How about we drink some wine?" She looked at me thoughtfully, got up and walked towards the tent door.
After a while, she came in with two small jars of wine. After sitting down, she smiled and said: "I heard from you that the girl has a good drinking capacity." I removed the tea and also smiled: "Then did the Thirteenth Master say,
Not only do I drink a lot, but I also drink well. I always fall asleep after getting drunk, no matter where I am. You have to be prepared this time and find a good person to carry me back." She caressed her.
His forehead said: "I have never heard Master say that."
The two drank for a while, and I said straight to the point: "The Thirteenth Master and the Emperor are dining with the two princes. I wanted to discuss some things with him, but then I thought about it, maybe it would be best to talk to you.
It's my choice." I paused and saw that she was listening intently. I took a deep breath, stared at her and said, "Don't be miserable. If life is short, get to know your child."
The cup in her hand fell with a thud on the table, her face was pale, and she stared at me blankly. I watched the spilled wine gurgling down the edge of the table and onto her body, but she turned a deaf ear.
After a while, she bit her lower lip tightly to suppress the tears in her eyes, preventing them from falling. She smiled miserably and said, "If you let her come back and recognize a sinner as your mother-in-law, wouldn't that be harmful to her?"
I shook my head and sighed: "Lvwu, that happened during the reign of the Holy Ancestor. Moreover, the situation in the court today is no longer the same as when the emperor succeeded to the throne. No one dares to endanger the prince with this matter, so you don't have to worry so much.
.Besides, human life is unpredictable, and one of us may go to another world. If by then, the child knows the truth of the matter, how do you want her to feel and how do you want her to face herself?"
Tears still fell from Lu Wu's eyes. She took off her handkerchief and wiped it for a while. Then she looked at me through her teary eyes and smiled bitterly, and said: "I think even a girl knows that there was a man named
What about Zeng Jing? Didn’t he get into trouble by holding a counter-proposal? Although he brought it upon himself, the court will deal with it sooner or later. Is it appropriate for us to recognize each other at this moment? If it affects Cheng Huan’s life in the future, then I would rather
If she hates me in the future, I will never recognize her."
I sighed again, and there was no words in my heart to convince her. As a mother, her decision was right. If I hadn't had Honghan, I would never have felt her mood.
I picked up the wine jar and filled it for her. I picked up the cup and said, "I understand you and why you made this decision, Lu Wu. Let's take this opportunity and let's have a good drink." She wiped it dry.
With tears in his eyes, he nodded with a smile, picked up the cup and said, "It's really rare for us to have the opportunity to sit together like this, as if we were back in time."
We drank one glass after another, and seeing that she was already very drunk, I induced her and said: "Lu Wu, if you want to cry, just cry. You don't have to suppress yourself so much." She picked up the jar and drank it all in one gulp, then put the jar down and lay on the table.
He burst into tears and said while crying: "Over the years, I know that I have been thinking about making me happy. I know his thoughts, and I have tried hard to adjust myself... I also know that Cheng Huan is in the palace, and you must
I would wholeheartedly be kind to her, but deep down in my heart, I still couldn’t help but think about her, imagining the situation where my grandpa and I would be together with her family of three... But how should I say this to my grandma?
I will definitely take her back to my hometown and get to know me, but now I don’t say that my status does not allow it, let’s just say that if I let her come back, can she really live as carefree as in the palace?…
.”
Her voice became weaker and weaker, until there was no sound at all. I chuckled and stroked my forehead. After a while, I felt a little more comfortable. I looked up at her and said to myself: "You are so hard on yourself, if Shisan knew
, he is more than just heartbroken." After saying that, he slowly stood up and walked toward her with unsteady steps, trying to help her back to the couch.
"I'll do it." Shisan's voice suddenly came to my ears, and I looked away. Shisan's brows were furrowed, with a heavy look on his face. His eyes were tightly wrapped around Lu Wu without blinking. I stood there,
He nodded and said inarticulately: "That's fine, it's not me that Luwu needs, so I'll leave now."
Without looking back, Shisan walked step by step toward Luwu, saying as he walked: "Thank you, fourth brother, and thank you, fourth sister-in-law, for letting me know what she was thinking." I was drunk and my mind was a little confused, so I asked confusedly.
He said: "Why do you call me Fourth Brother? Haven't you always called me Brother Huang? Besides, he's not here, so why should you thank him?"
The tent door sighed softly. I rubbed my eyes and looked at Yinzhen who was walking slowly. I smiled and walked quickly towards him. As I walked, I said, "It's great. I'm still worried about how to go back."
His feet were completely out of place, his body staggered, and he threw himself towards him.
He hugged me, shook his head helplessly, and hugged me. I put my hands around his neck, rested my head on his shoulder, and whispered into his ear: "Husband, you are not the emperor.
, you are just my husband..." He left the camp, and I still whispered in his ear over and over again. He tightened the strength in his hands and said softly: "Ruoxi, if you have anything to do, we can talk to you back to the tent.
." I responded with an 'oh', nestled in his arms and stopped talking.
Lying on the couch, still holding his neck, he lowered his head and said: "Ruoxi, let go, I'll pour you a glass of water to rinse your mouth." I was actually still awake in my mind, but these days
I was feeling depressed that day, and I wanted to let it go for a while under the influence of alcohol, so I narrowed my eyes and said with a charming smile: "What I need is not rinsing my mouth, I just want to stay with my dear husband."
He sighed inaudibly, lay beside me, and looked at each other face to face. His face was calm, and something inexplicable flashed in his eyes. I was confused and caressed his face,
After watching silently for a while, I said, "There is something in your eyes." He took my hand away, held it in his, and said, "Ruoxi, is there something in your heart that I don't know about?"
I stared at him and said with a bitter smile: "Why not? You are the emperor above me. I can't ask you for anything because you have too many things on your shoulders, but I want you to be more tolerant. For myself and for me,
Because I am very scared in my heart. I am afraid that one day you will suddenly leave me. Then what will be the meaning of my life in this world? But if we all go, what will Honghan do? Every time I think about this, I feel scared.
I have trembling fear and can’t sleep at night.”
That indescribable thing expanded in his eyes, and he hugged me in his arms all of a sudden, and then his lips fell on my face, pecking them gently, from my forehead, to my eyes, to the tip of my nose, and finally to my
On the lips, I touched lightly, and I gently bit his lower lip. He made a grunt in his throat, and then kissed my lips gently and then violently.
I had a splitting headache and a dry mouth. I swallowed hard, but my mouth was still uncomfortably dry.
"Ruoxi, drink some water." His voice came to my ears. I slowly opened my eyes and saw him sitting on the edge of the couch holding a tea bowl with a hint of tiredness on his face. I sat up, my arms were sore and weak.
I fell back again. He shook his head and put the tea bowl on the table next to the couch. He gently helped me stand up and let me lean into his arms. Then he picked up the tea bowl and brought it to my mouth.
I drank it in a big gulp and felt better, so I asked, "What time is it?" He put down the tea bowl, put his arms around my body, and said gently, "It's almost noon."
I was slightly startled, turned around, sat up, looked at him and said, "Then why are you still in the tent? The two Mongolian troops will leave tomorrow. Shouldn't there be a big banquet at noon today?"
With a smile hidden in the corner of his mouth, he stared at me and said: "My dear wife hasn't gotten up yet, how dare I leave." A gentle and considerate word came out of his mouth lightly, and there seemed to be something special in it.
, looking at his still calm face, I sighed softly, then smiled and said: "Glib accent."
I suddenly felt something was wrong. I thought about it for a while. Everything about last night came into my mind. It seemed that I was the first to call out my husband. However, I didn't seem to say the word "wife". How could he?
will know.
I stared at him and asked coquettishly: "What did you call me just now?" The smile on his face also disappeared, and he was silent for a while and said: "Honey, you don't like me calling you that." I suddenly said
I'm confused. Did I say something when I was drunk?
I looked at him furtively, and he was looking at me with a smile. I mumbled, "What did I say last night?" His face was sullen for a while, and finally he laughed uncontrollably.
After he finished laughing, he stroked my face, leaned back on the couch, looked at me and said, "You said a lot." My heart tightened, I bit my lower lip and thought for a while, but I didn't expect that...
After getting drunk, I fall asleep every time, but I look like this when I am half awake and half drunk.
While I was dazed, he gently pulled me to lie down. The two of them were quiet for a while. Then he sighed and said in a deep voice: "Ruoxi, if you have any thoughts or worries in your mind from now on, I will know about them." I was silent for a while,
He said softly: "I will."
I thought about it silently for a while, feeling a little regretful about what I said when I was drunk. I turned sideways, looked at him and said, "If I said anything stupid when I was drunk, don't take it to heart." After hearing this, he smiled and said.
: "The customs in the northwest are really interesting. It's the first time I've heard of husbands and wives being called 'husband' and 'wife'."
I was stunned and said: "The custom in the northwest?" He laughed dumbly: "Why, didn't you say that? 'We call our wives wife and our husband as husband'." I still laughed and said: "What else did you say?
?" He touched my hair and said, "I wanted to trick you, but you didn't expect that you fell asleep after saying this, and you slept very badly at night." Hearing this, I felt relieved, but I couldn't hide the tiredness on his face.
So I pulled up a thin blanket and covered him, lying on the side and stopped talking.
After a while, I suddenly thought of what happened at noon. I hurriedly patted him and said, "Don't sleep anymore. The banquet at noon is still waiting for you." He pulled away my hand, closed his eyes and said, "It has been changed to evening.
A fire is lit in the night, giving it a more prairie atmosphere." After a while, thin breathing could be heard.
After lying there for a while, he turned over and lay down, tucked the thin blanket for him, and walked out gently.
After lifting the curtain and going out, Xiao Shunzi at the door of the tent called Qianqian: "Your Majesty, your breakfast Ju Xiang has been prepared. I will go and ask her to bring it." I was already hungry, so we leaned against each other, so
I said: "No need to bring it, I will go directly. When the emperor wakes up, I will report back to the emperor that Cheng Huan and I will be together."
As she walked forward, before she reached the tent where the palace ladies lived, she saw Cheng Huan galloping out from between the two tents on a pure white horse, closely followed by Zotel riding a dark brown horse.
.I stood there, looking at Cheng Huan, whose face was filled with happiness. At this time, she was like a happy elf with no worries.
Seeing me, Cheng Huan raised her hands up, and the horse under her stopped with a cry. She turned over beautifully, jumped off the horse lightly, dropped the reins, and ran over happily: "Aunt, these days
I haven't even seen you." Zotel dismounted and came over, bowed, then picked up the reins of the two horses with a smile and walked slowly forward.
I took off my handkerchief and wiped away the fine sweat from her forehead, and suddenly I noticed something strange about the jade pendant around her neck. I picked it up and looked at it carefully for a while. It was indeed that the jade pendant was no longer the original one, although the jade quality was the same.
, but the lines were different. With a thought in my mind, I put down the jade pendant, straightened her collar, and looked at her with a smile on my face.
Cheng Huan lowered his head and glanced at the jade pendant. He raised his head and his face turned slightly red. He said in a sullen voice, "Auntie, this piece belongs to Zotel. I gave my piece to him."
I suppressed the smile on my face and asked her seriously: "Chenghuan, do you like this kind of life where the sky is high and the sky is low, and you can ride a horse and gallop around at will? Auntie is not talking about a month or a year, but a lifetime." Chenghuan's face was a little confused.
With a confused expression, he looked at me confusedly for a while and said, "Aunt, Chenghuan didn't think so long term, but I am indeed very happy this month."
I looked at Zotel, who was standing there waiting for Cheng Huan, withdrew my gaze, caressed her face, stared at her and said, "Chenghuan, do you like riding horses with Zotel? Or someone else can ride with you.
, you just like the life on the grassland."
Cheng Huan frowned, lowered his head and fell silent. The white horse in the distance made a long cry, and Cheng Huan raised her head and looked over. After a while, she turned her head and said, "Auntie, Cheng Huan likes to ride horses with Zotel.
"
I breathed out secretly, and my hanging heart dropped. I smiled and said: "Auntie knows, you go quickly." Chenghuan's face relaxed, turned around and ran forward, ran two steps, then turned around again
I asked doubtfully: "Why is aunt asking these questions?" I waved my hand to her, and she was stunned for a while. When I didn't answer, she smiled at me, turned around and trotted away.
I felt relieved for a while, but I became more and more hungry. I felt that my steps were a little slow, so I walked towards Juxiang's tent.
"Your Majesty." A low, familiar voice came. I turned around in confusion, and saw a palace guard standing in front of me. It turned out to be Zhang Yuzhi.
I'm a little startled. I don't know why he appeared here. This time, the guards responsible for the area around Changchun Garden were all brought from the Old Summer Palace, and the Green Camp army a mile away were all drawn from the banner armies.
An elite, firstly to guard the safety of the camp to prevent wild beasts from raiding, and secondly to train troops by the way. He should not appear here.
