calm to light

The author has something to say: This article cannot avoid Su's shortcomings, childishness, insufficiency, etc., but I will insist on finishing it, and I will also refer to your opinions to make his shortcomings as few as possible.

Hearing from the palace people that Mei Zhuang was pregnant, the emperor was overjoyed, knowing that Mei Zhuang and I had a good relationship, he took me here.Mei Zhuang is pregnant, so the balance between the rising star represented by Zhen Huan and Concubine Hua will be broken, and at this time, I will appear in front of everyone in the harem.

Before leaving the palace, I was nervous and nervous, but when Chun'er learned that I was going to the palace, she came to my palace to see her off, she was so sincere in her reluctance, and she muttered in a low voice, she was the only one left in the palace. One, very boring.Her innocent heart is so rare, like the rare white lotus blooming in the mud of the harem, the fresh smell even slightly dissipated my troubles.

I took Juqing, Cuisi and Xiaolezi, and I took the carriage, and after walking for half a day, I arrived at Yuanmingyuan.When I got out of the car, I looked at such a charming building in front of me, and my heart was very delicate.In the 21st century, the Old Summer Palace, which was just a ruin, is still a summer resort with pavilions, towers and pavilions, green mountains and green waters, where all the treasures of the world are hidden, and the beauty of the world is poor.

Yuanmingyuan, the splendor that should have disappeared, made me very curious, but under such circumstances, I really couldn't arouse my interest in watching it.Therefore, when Zhen Huan came out, she saw that I was not at all excited about coming to Yuanmingyuan for the first time. Compared with ordinary people looking around, I was too plain and seemed a bit depressed, which made her think too much involuntarily.

"Sister, I was looking forward to you." Zhen Huan greeted her with a smile, "Sister Mei has been talking about you all the time, and finally begged the emperor to bring my sister to be with me. Sister, please don't be annoyed by me and Sister Mei's self-made behavior." It's a good claim."

The reason for bringing me to the palace was not that I wanted my sisters to be together to avoid the summer heat and play games with each other. Their intention was to prevent someone from taking advantage of Meizhuang's favor while she was pregnant. , and took me out.They have the same plan, and so do others. In the harem, it is always better to have a hundred flowers blooming than a single flower.Although I was treated as a pawn by others, I don’t need such a will. Since it’s something you love and I want, there is no blame or guilt. There is a slightly uneasy smile on Zhen Huan’s face, which is really unnecessary. "Where is my sister, the Old Summer Palace is a place my sister has always wanted to come to, but now that I am in my sister's light, how can I complain instead of being grateful?"

"As long as you're happy, you don't have to be grateful." Seeing that I didn't seem to be lying, she thought that my abnormal behavior just now was because I was thinking too deeply and seeing too clearly. In her view, it was natural for me to understand all kinds of reasons. "We are sisters. Naturally we have to share weal and woe."

Yes, it is natural to share joys and sorrows.When one person is favored, they will take care of them more, and when the time permits, they will pamper them more. When they are employed, they will contribute together, and they will spend together in critical moments. These are sisters, but with a little more suspicion and pursuit, they are nondescript and a bit like companions. If we reconcile because of interests, it is reasonable to break up because of interests. That's why the Queen Mother indulges Zhen Huan in this way. Mei Zhuang and I are on good terms, so the Queen will turn a blind eye and look at me with purpose. Uh, come to the palace.Even Concubine Hua has been laughing at the deep sisterhood of us rising stars.

Mei Zhuang was pregnant, and for the first month she suffered from nausea and drowsiness, so she mostly stayed in her own room and didn't come out. Besides, I was not in a hurry to see her when she was taking a nap.While Zhen Huan was talking to me about the current situation of Meizhuang, she led me to wander around the Old Summer Palace. Although it was a hot summer season, the Old Summer Palace was well-arranged, with pavilions, pavilions and lush greenery to avoid pedestrians from being exposed to the sun. , so that I can enjoy the rare coolness in summer no matter where I go.

Seeing me admiring the beautiful scenery and smiling comfortably, Zhen Huan was really relieved, it was rare that she wanted to take me for a walk around the palace, but she didn't want Su Peisheng to come over and say that the emperor summoned her to serve him.This is a good thing, and it is more important than being with my sister.Even though Zhen Huan felt that it was not good to leave me here, she would not stay with me. Of course, I would not let her stay, so she said nothing, and watched her go with a smile.

Without Zhen Huan's company, I wandered around in the huge Yuanmingyuan, like an adventure, with an indescribable excitement.It was rare to have the nature of wanting to let go of myself, so I felt that the entourage behind me was a little restrained, "Ju Qing, you go and settle down first, I want to walk alone."

Seeing that I was determined to pay attention, Ju Qing felt that the crowd would be a disappointment, but after all, she felt that it was inappropriate for me to walk around in the palace, so she persuaded, "Master, why not bring Cuicai with you, so as not to let me walk around in the palace?" There is one less speaker on the road."

Knowing that she was there for me, at least one person would be with me if I had anything to do, and thinking that Cuisi was very lively, maybe there would be more fun with her, so I agreed.

And the next play and walk proved that my decision to take Cuicai was very wise.No matter how beautiful the scene is, if you are accompanied by the wrong people, you will feel all kinds of boring, and the opposite is the same.

"My lord, look at the lotus there, how beautiful it is blooming." I looked in the direction of her finger, and saw large swathes of slightly swaying green waves not far away, among which there were many white spots mixed in. The hypocrisy of the pink is the lotus that has not yet bloomed or even has already bloomed. Such a beautiful scenery reminds me of a well-known poem, "The lotus leaves are boundless in the sky, and the lotus flowers are red in the sun." I blurted out The verse has won the admiration of the little girl, "Little master, you are really talented!"

"Little girl, knowing what it means to be talented," she casually glanced at her, "Don't keep talking nonsense like this, it will make people hear a joke."

The little girl stuck out her tongue, lowered her head and didn't say much, but she was attracted by the scenery after a while, and raised her surprised smiling face again, "My lord, there is a pavilion over there, my lord, go and sit. Be careful not to expose yourself to the sun."

I've been walking for a while, so it's good to sit down, "Cuisi, I'm still a little hungry, get me something to eat."

"The little master alone?"

"Go and come back quickly, and everything will be fine."

······

This gazebo is located in a remote place, with one side leaning on the rockery, and the other three sides are more or less covered by the willows planted on the bank, so it is easy to ignore if you don't look closely.It is also these natural shelters that allow people in the gazebo to enjoy the pleasure of looking at the hazy beauty through the green silk tapestry. Not only that, but the rare coolness inside the pavilion allows me to eliminate the accumulated summer heat while walking. I just feel very refreshed.

I was enjoying it when suddenly a white figure of Yue Yue broke into the space that was originally only me.It was a small child, about four or five years old, thin and small, but the little baby fat on his face made him look innocent and cute, but this trace of childishness was destroyed by the seriousness of his face .He just glanced at me in surprise, as if he was surprised that someone would go to this place first, but even though he was surprised, he still didn't panic, ignored me, and used the fence around me as a stepping mat, climbing all at once When I arrived on the rockery, I found a hiding place, and disappeared in front of my eyes in a blink of an eye.

Although I couldn't see him, I knew he must still be there. The sight cast on me was so strong that I was shocked by the maturity of this child. He was obviously just a child. How could he be like this...

"Fourth elder brother?" Through the wicker, I vaguely saw a palace man, as if looking for something, "fourth elder brother?" She probably saw someone in the pavilion, and came in asking, Seeing me because I didn't know my identity, I just bowed respectfully, and asked with a little anxiety, "Mistress, can you see a child in moon-white clothes?"

This palace man is not young, and his clothes are very simple, even crude, as is the child just now. Although the cloth on his body is much better than that of the palace man in front of him, it is still too ordinary, not at all. Like an elder brother, the glory that a son of an emperor with few heirs should have.

"A child came here before, and what you described is also appropriate." I didn't think about hiding anything for anyone. Obviously, I am not a simple elder brother. If I hide it, I will only provoke myself. To be honest It was just that the child attacked with his eyes, "The child ran to the rockery just now."

Although I was telling the truth, I didn't seem to be telling the truth. The palace man looked around the rockery, but didn't see the slightest movement or anything wrong. Thinking that the fourth elder brother she was looking for might have passed the rockery and made a detour, he hurriedly He hurriedly thanked me and withdrew.

Well, I have told the truth, as for her not being found, it has nothing to do with me.

"Bang!" Not long after the palace talent left, the fourth elder brother couldn't bear it anymore, and threw a stone down, rolling down on the stone slab beside me. It was rare that he looked like a child again.

I looked at the unhappy child who was glaring at me, and said with a smile, "What's the matter, brother Si?"

"Who are you?" The little child, with his hands folded on his chest, coupled with a serious expression, made people laugh even more, "I am Mrs. An." It's rare that I cooperated with this child, and I felt that such a precocious child was like this. An angry look should be rare, and it's an honor for me to see it.

"You are a noble person who serves the queen mother, I know you." It really surprised me, whether this child is well-informed or I am too famous.

"Why did you tell the truth just now?" If other people had encountered this matter, they would certainly not have told the truth like her gang did not help him and did not tell the truth. If it hadn't been for the aunt's overthinking, he would have found it.

I didn't answer the child's question, but just glanced at him, as if looking at a stranger, the eyes were very cold and indifferent, as if he was just a dead thing, this kind of eyes also made him hesitate to speak, his eyes Stubbornness gathered in his heart, and he finally said, "You look down on me!" Even though he was a child, there was an element of exasperation in his tone, did I think too much, or was this child too unsimple and too mature?

"Si elder brother thinks too much." Precocity is not born, it's just that he has experienced too much, "Why is there always someone in the palace who looks down on fourth elder brother, so why do you let elder brother think this way?"

Injury flashed across my eyes, my words made the fourth elder brother look like a little beast whose wound was touched, his eyes widened, and he looked at me warily, without saying a word but full of vigilance. The atmosphere between us froze.Fortunately, Cui Si came back with some snacks, which broke the deadlock, "My lord, I brought some crystal osmanthus cake and iced mung bean soup." As he got closer, Cui Si saw the child standing on the rockery, and touched it all at once. Unclear situation.

"The sun is so big, Si elder brother would like some snacks?" I was just saying politely, Si elder brother seemed to have something to do, I thought he must be very disdainful to reject my proposal.But he just hesitated for a while, and finally agreed.Is it because the child is hungry?

With outsiders around, Cui Si calmed down, placed delicious food on the stone table in an orderly manner, and stepped aside.I waited for the fourth elder brother to jump down from the rockery and take a seat before I sat down on the seat opposite him.Seeing him start to eat unceremoniously, he was not in a hurry, but felt that he looked at the lotus on the lake from a different angle, which made him feel special.

"The cakes are delicious, and the iced soup is hard to come by. Why is Mrs. An not moving?" Could it be that there are outsiders around, this little boy also restrained himself, and his tone was rare and steady, but such calmness is a bit funny for a child.

"It's just that I was fascinated by the beautiful scenery on the lake for a while, as long as the fourth elder brother eats happily." In his slightly surprised eyes, I saw that I smiled extraordinarily gently.

"Master An, it's really elusive."

The smile on the corner of his mouth widened involuntarily, "The fourth elder brother is so incomprehensible."

······

I thought that the fourth elder brother would go to do his things after he was full, but I didn’t want him to accompany me all the time and say some irrelevant words. Instead, I saw a elder brother’s erudition. Sure enough, geniuses start from childhood of.

In the end, seeing that it was getting late, I thought about going to Meizhuang to pay my respects to the Queen Mother, so I had to leave first.

"Mr. Angui, do you think the lotus will underestimate the lotus leaf because of the silt?" Hearing the sound, I turned around and looked at the four or five-year-old child, looking at the lake with rapt attention, so mature that it made people feel distressed.

Subconsciously I opened my mouth, "Lotus leaves and lotus flowers are just two unrelated things in my opinion." They seem to be one, but they are actually unrelated at all. Since they are unrelated, I won't bother to underestimate them. The dense lotus and lotus seeds, and I have never seen the lotus give up this unusual taste because of the pain of the lotus seeds.” I just said it casually, and after I finished speaking, I even wondered how I could tell a child I just met. Such endless words, "I just said it casually, Si elder brother don't care."

Walking around a corner, I completely left the pavilion behind, "Cuisi," after hesitating for a while, I finally asked, "No one should mention what happened just now." The child of the emperor's disregard.

When I raised my head slightly, I saw a woman wearing a plain green embroidered robe walking slowly with the support of a maidservant in a light blue dress a few feet away. The man also saw me and nodded to me. I saw her Although the dress is simple and elegant, but the clothes belong to the concubine's rules. I moved my luggage away in her direction, but she just accepted it from a distance, and the people around her walked away with the support.

She should be the long-ill concubine Duan.

My luck was really good, as soon as I came here, I saw the fourth elder brother who had been raised in the Old Summer Palace since he was a child, and the concubine Duan who had never shown up due to illness.
