[Three Kingdoms] I am the queen of the Great Wei Dynasty
Chapter 59 Snow Night
Snowing.
The heavy snow all over the sky floated down, one after another.
Ah Sheng was lying alone by the dusty window, smelling the faint fragrance from the plum tree outside.
Now the house is empty and she is the only one left. Luyi was ordered to take Pi'er to another courtyard, so Ah Sheng could only watch Xueluo outside in boredom every day, counting the days left to be locked up. .
But no matter how close she was, it would not have passed three months.
She stretched out her hand to catch a snowflake falling from the sky.This fragile whiteness quickly melted and disappeared in the palm of the hand, as if it couldn't bear the warmth of the mortal world, a coldness quietly appeared, and gradually penetrated into the skin.
She stared blankly for a while, then heard the crackling sound of tree felling from the yard, mixed with the heavy sound of branches falling to the ground, which hit her heart instantly.
A Sheng couldn't help but look in the direction of the sound, his eyes widened suddenly.
I saw several servants who were busy cutting down the crabapple trees in their yard. The poor thin branches and leaves fell weakly, and the trunk collapsed, making sudden holes in the snow.
"What are you doing? Stop!" Shocked and annoyed, Ah Sheng yelled at them.
However, those strong men ignored her stop at all, and continued to chop on their own, as if they were deaf to her yelling.
Seeing the crabapple trees that she had worked so hard to plant collapsed one after another, she was so anxious that she was about to cry, wishing she could break open the door beside her and rush out.
"Hey, you guys are so courageous! This is my wife's favorite tree. Without my order, how dare you be so ridiculous!" A Sheng bit her lip nervously, desperately holding back her tears, and gave the order forcefully. .
"It was my order." Ding Xi's sharp laughter next to her ears was extremely piercing. She walked past the window wearing a luxurious feather cloak, and looked at the furious A Sheng with an expression as if she was admiring her prey. Standing leaning against a wall.
Pulling the corners of Vermilion's lips, she said with a smile, "I just see that your precious Begonia doesn't like it. Why, Sikong's dignified wife doesn't have the right to remove the eyesore?"
She double-tapped the phone, which made Ah Sheng even more displeased.She opened her mouth to reply directly, but she was not on guard when she saw Xiao Bing running into her yard in a hurry.
He was obviously extremely anxious, and his ragged prison uniform was particularly conspicuous, and many soldiers and servants were chasing after him to stop him.
He just ran over with all his might, and stopped panting in front of A Sheng.
"Sister..." He panted, anxiously grabbed her hands across the window sill, and knelt down in front of her with a "plop".
When the soldiers chasing him saw A Sheng and Ding Xi, they didn't dare to step forward, they all took a few steps back, and Wei Wei said "madam".
Seeing Xiao Bing's eager look, Ah Sheng was also anxious, and hurriedly waved his hand to make him stand up and asked, "What's the matter? Take your time."
"Sister, A Tao, she..." Xiao Bingcai cried out after saying a name, his strength and composure couldn't bear it anymore, he choked up and said, "I'm going to be executed, I beg my sister to save her Come on! Xiao Bing finally escaped to find you, now you are the only one who can help Xiao Bing, I beg my sister! A Tao is only 16 years old, she is still so young."
He begged repeatedly, the facial features on his face were crowded together because of grief, tears poured down in an instant, and the crying made Ah Sheng feel as if a knife was twisting his heart.
She can't protect herself right now, so how can she save Ji Tao!
But Xiao Bing cried so pitifully that she could only stretch out her arms and touch the top of his head.He felt a few drops of cool tears falling on the tip of his hair, and looked up in surprise, only to see his sister's eyes were red, looking at him sadly.
Only then did he realize the indifference and abnormality of the surrounding atmosphere, and a sneer suddenly sounded out.
He carefully looked to the side, and suddenly found a gorgeous lady with heavy makeup, looking at him playfully.
Ding Xi sighed pretendingly, and pretending to be regretful, he broke off a branch of plum blossoms carved from jade, pinched it between his fingers and slowly crushed it, and said: "Jiping's daughter may not be saved, your sister is hard to save herself now, How can you care about that nosy business. Poor couples are really doomed, but I will ask Sikong, you just wait to bring Ji Tao's body home. It is also a good thing to do a ghost wedding ceremony, and your infatuation is not in vain. "
"Ding Xi, shut up!" Ah Sheng glared at him, picked up the vase on the table and threw it at Ding Xi's face.Not wanting to be dodged by her quickly, the porcelain bottle fell into countless petals with a bang, and the already withered flowers inside fell to the snow, and were immediately covered up without a trace.
Ding Xi smiled triumphantly at her, motioned to the soldiers below, and said coldly: "Put this crazy woman's younger brother under arrest, and let him watch Ji Tao's execution with his own eyes. Don't waste his infatuation."
**
A Sheng sat in the corner in a daze, his mind kept resounding with Xiao Bing's begging during the day, so he could only sit helplessly covering his eyes.
Suddenly, she heard the back door being knocked open, and the cold wind rushed in from outside.
She stood up in panic to see who it was, and saw a slender figure taking off her cloak, shaking off snowflakes, and revealing her face.
"Little Hongxue!" A Sheng wiped his eyes, and after confirming that it was Hongxue whom he hadn't seen for a long time, he couldn't help jumping up and hugging her in joy.
"Hush——" Hongxue quickly covered her mouth, looked around carefully, and then said angrily: "Slow down, don't be discovered by those who want to hurt you, or you will still think I am talking to you." What are you colluding with?"
"Why did you come to see me secretly?" Ah Sheng couldn't help but look her up and down, seeing that she was wearing a black night gown, her face was more charming than that of a married woman, she seemed more beautiful than before.
Hongxue took out the package in her arms, and there was a warm breath and a familiar sweet smell, "Not only did I come to see you, but I also brought you your favorite sugar-filled glutinous rice cake Hurry up, eat while it's hot."
She opened the paper bag carefully, and what A Sheng saw was a dozen square lotus root white pastries, dotted with tempting black sesame seeds.After being hungry for a whole day, she couldn't wait to pick up a piece and eat it. She didn't have time to feel its taste, only the lingering sweetness lingered on the tip of her tongue.
Seeing her so greedy, Hong Xue couldn't bear to pat her on the shoulder: "How long has it been since you had a good meal?"
"It didn't take long—" Ah Sheng devoured her food, and took the time to answer her questions. "I've been imprisoned here for three months, and I'll be released in half a year."
Hongxue's gaze swept the whole room, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw the leftovers in the corner, green hairs even grew on the hard buns, and there was an unspeakable smell from time to time.The bone-chilling cold of winter came in through the cracks in the wall, and the vast night gave some thin moonlight, just enough to illuminate the faint candlelight.
She couldn't help frowning: "Do you eat this kind of food on weekdays?"
A Sheng nodded indifferently, busy swallowing the hard-won delicious food in his mouth, wiped his mouth and replied: "This bun is too hard to eat, so I have no choice but to throw it away. The other meals are rotten, but At least I can eat it, and I ate it all."
"What does he, Cao Mengde, eat? Just let them treat you like this, let you eat this kind of food that the dogs in my house don't want?" Hongxue couldn't help jumping up, cursing angrily at the sky, venting her anger.
After a while, she saw A Sheng bowed her head and remained silent, thinking that something in her own words made her sad, so she hastily came over to pat A Sheng on the back, and said with a smile: "I didn't mean that, don't get me wrong. , I mean, dogs don't want to eat the food you eat, and they let you eat it, which is really deceptive."
But it seemed that the more she explained, the more unpleasant it was, so Hongxue simply closed her mouth and carefully stood behind Ah Sheng to watch her face.
It took a long time before Ah Sheng raised his eyes, held Hongxue's hand, looked into her eyes sincerely, and said, "Thank you for still caring about me in this situation."
Hongxue hurriedly shook her head and smiled embarrassedly, changed the subject quickly, and stared at her with a face of hating iron and steel, and said in a scolding tone: "I told you last time, let you be careful of those vicious women You. I realized early on that Huan Pei was not a good person, colluded with Ding Xi to put you in jeopardy, and you really deserved to be bullied."
"But I have no intention of harming others, how could I expect them to harm me?" Ah Sheng couldn't help being wronged, and the bitterness in his heart wanted to pour out, unwillingly sitting on the bed hugging his legs, with his face on his knees "I can't figure out how this person's heart is so cruel. It might kill me one day. I always thought that I had the upper hand just by talking about it. Who knows that my fate has been secretly controlled by them all the time?" At the mercy of."
Hongxue also sat down, staring at her face intently without saying a word, completely different from the past in quietness and silence.
Ah Sheng reluctantly finished biting the last piece of glutinous rice cake, then suddenly turned his head to look at Hongxue and asked: "Actually, this is made by Xun Wenruo, right?"
His tone sounded like he was asking, but it was actually confident and determined.
Hongxue was suddenly disturbed when she heard the words, and wanted to deny it hastily, but she honestly confessed after shaking her head halfway, "Yes, I told Ling Jun that I wanted to see you, so he did this and asked me to take you with me. Give it to you, and said not to let you know."
"Then why did you still admit it?" A Sheng asked with a smile, not knowing if he was serious.
This time it was Hongxue's turn to be embarrassed, and looked at her with a forced smile: "Ling Jun said, this must not be hidden from you, so if you see through it, you might as well admit it."
She rested her head on her hands, and continued regretfully: "I heard that you lived under the protection of Mr. Xun Ling when you were young. You must be very self-sufficient around such a gentle and polite young master."
Being mentioned so suddenly by her, Ah Sheng's eyes moved, and he looked out at the dark night sky.The light stars reflect the bright streamer of white snow, whirling and flicking among the sparkling tree shadows.
"I was so happy back then. I laughed and cried when I wanted to. It's not like I have to suffer so many inexplicable grievances now. No one can make me reason." Consciously lowered, "At that time, I only had to play the piano and learn to write all day long, and read books for three days fishing and two days drying the net. No one could restrict me from doing anything. When it snows in winter, the snow in Yingchuan It’s really beautiful, flying and dancing in the air without bounds, even better than the one in my hometown of Hanoi. At this time, I play snowball fights with the girls and build tall snow houses. Sometimes Xun Wenruo will come to play with us .”
"But now, I can't even go out, and I can only watch the snow fall with greed. Besides, the snow is not as good as it was in Yingchuan at that time, and I'm not in the mood to play in the snow anymore."
The heavy snow all over the sky floated down, one after another.
Ah Sheng was lying alone by the dusty window, smelling the faint fragrance from the plum tree outside.
Now the house is empty and she is the only one left. Luyi was ordered to take Pi'er to another courtyard, so Ah Sheng could only watch Xueluo outside in boredom every day, counting the days left to be locked up. .
