Standing up to the west wind and geese not returning

Wrapped in the red gauze, Yan Ci approached, but he didn't go on the bed. He just sat where he had just sat, and said, "I'll just sit for a while. Your Highness just rest. Soon, it will be dinner." Time. Naturally, someone will come in to serve you."

Du Zijin looked at Yan Ci at this moment, and felt that Yan Ci's face was like the clothes on his body, red and white, very good-looking.

When Yan Ci spoke, his face was slightly sideways, his black hair was like a waterfall, and his eyebrows and eyes were like ink.Like a fairy in a storybook.

After Yan Ci finished speaking, he went to see Du Zijin, only to see that Du Zijin was still leaning on his side, looking deeply at himself with his eyes, Yan Ci couldn't help but paused slightly, "Your Highness...Your Highness, please rest .”

"Oh... oh, good." Du Zijin responded, pulled the quilt twice indiscriminately, covered his wound, and closed his eyes while lying down.

When Yan Ci almost thought that Du Zijin was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard him say, "My mother is a very smart and beautiful woman."

Yan Ci was taken aback for a moment, and looked up at Du Zijin, who smiled and said, "I can't sleep, why don't Ah Ci talk to me."

Yan Ci didn't say a word, Du Zijin smiled, and continued, "She entered the palace at the age of 12. My grandfather is just a seventh-rank master recorder. I haven't even seen the emperor a few times in my life. But he has a very bright daughter."

When Du Zijin said these words, his face was neither sad nor happy, as if he was talking about someone who had nothing to do with him, "A woman's birth directly determines her life in the palace. When a mother enters the palace That year, among the 32 beautiful women who entered the palace in the same batch, she was the thinnest and the most wronged one. She even washed the chamber pots of other beautiful women."

Du Zijin raised his head and saw that Yan Ci was staring at him like a child, and asked, "A Ci, guess, how can a little girl who smells like urine get the favor of the emperor?" .”

Yan Ci only felt that anyone who knew about Empress Liu's initial encounters would feel miserable and sad.

But Du Zijin even said it with a smile. When a person does not regard pain as pain, how many things ordinary people have experienced that ordinary people can't bear.

Du Zijin grinned again.Smiling a little proudly, "A Ci can't guess it. At that time, the queen mother was doing laundry for other beautiful girls every day, so although she was small in stature, she was very powerful. Compared with those big families, she could hold embroidery needles Miss, the queen mother can weigh two chickens at that time."

Yan Ci suddenly wanted to say something, so he answered, "So, the empress was chosen by the emperor because she brought two chickens?"

Du Zijin raised his eyebrows, and said, "It's pretty much the same. Father was young at that time, and the world was settled not long after he ascended the throne. He raised several sea dongqings in the imperial garden.

Father at that time.Brave and wise.He looked like a good emperor who founded the country.

Once his father took his favorite Hai Dongqing to hunt in the royal hunting ground. On that trip, the father brought twelve beautiful girls.

And my mother was followed by those twelve beautiful girls dressed as maids.Unexpectedly, the Falcon was in a difficult situation, and when his father didn't notice for a while, Hai Dongqing stabbed at his mother.If it pecks the eye, I'm afraid I will never see it again. "

The mountain rain is about to come and the wind is all over the building.The leaves outside the post house were rattling by the strong wind.Yan Ci wrapped the red gauze tightly around her body, like a child listening to an old man telling a story.

Du Zijin continued, "But the mother's character is not afraid of anything. She immediately widened her eyes and looked at the menacing Haidongqing. This kind of raptor, let alone a little girl, is a grown man It is also difficult to tame. But my mother let the sea dongqing obediently fall in front of her."

There was a smile on the corner of Du Zijin's mouth, which was his absolute admiration for his mother, "Father is used to the weakness and helplessness of women in the harem, this is the first time I saw such a brave and resolute woman as my mother. So I asked me directly The name of the mother, after knowing that she was a beautiful girl waiting to be selected in the palace, he directly brought the mother into his jade carriage. The emperor gave the mother a chance to deal with those beautiful girls who humiliated her. But the mother refused gone."

Yan Ci nodded slightly, and said, "The empress is kind-hearted, she must be unwilling to punish those sisters who entered the palace together."

Du Zijin seemed to have heard a big joke, and said, "Don't want to? Hahaha. It's not that she doesn't want to, she just doesn't want to let them be punished so easily."

Du Zijin turned over, just in time to meet Yan Ci's eyes. "Which of those beautiful women who entered the palace dreamed of flying up the branches, attaining the Tao alone, and ascending to heaven. But my mother did it.

She got what they all wanted.So she is happy.She even chose two of them and recommended them to her father to help them move towards high positions.Then, on a certain day when she was not happy, she pushed them all into the abyss. "

Yan Ci's body was cold, and he couldn't help saying, "Empress, maybe it wasn't on purpose."

Du Zijin didn't go to Yan Ci, turned slightly sideways, and lay down again, but before he could speak, a tear flowed down the corner of his eye, Du Zijin said, "If it's for those concubines, she didn't mean to Yes. It must be intentional for me and Seventh Brother."

Yan Ci remained silent, he felt that Du Zijin just needed to listen quietly at this moment.

Everyone has their own wounds.Some are hidden in hidden corners, and unless the person voluntarily reveals them, they will not be able to be seen by prying eyes.Yan Ci felt that Du Zijin was showing himself the secrets that he had hidden in a corner today.

Du Zijin raised his hand and gently wiped the corners of his eyes, and said, "Ye An is just Ah Ci's cousin, if you were asked to kill him, you would be absolutely unwilling. But Zipei and I were both killed by our mother." I ordered alone to kill the other party. For the so-called ridiculous thriving."

Yan Ci was shocked and didn't know what to do for a while, so he could only say, "Then...why don't you turn your hostility into friendship now."

Du Zijin turned over again and smiled at Yan Ci, "It's the mother's instruction, but it's also the sincerity of me and Zipei. I haven't wanted his life until now, because I'm already in the crown prince's life." Ke Zipei wanted to kill me because I was in the position of prince, so I became the one he had to kill when he wanted to seize power."

Yan Ci's heart was filled with panic, but he still asked, "Then what is the intention of Empress Liu to give you separate orders?"

Du Zijin sneered, "That's the intention. If a flower garden is to be comparable to other flower gardens, it doesn't matter if only one branch of flowers blooms beautifully. A hundred flowers must bloom together, which is the appearance of a beautiful scene competing for spring."

Yan Ci sighed deeply, "In this way, it is better to be born in the family of ordinary people than to be born in the prince's family. Although the livelihood is difficult, but at least it is brotherly respect. It is not like you. The blood is close relatives, but in the end they meet each other like this."

Du Zijin put his arms under his head and said with a smile, "Is Aci a Buddha?"

Du Zijin's question was sudden, but it reminded Yan Ci that Yunni asked her that day, "My lord is a Buddhist."

After a pause at this moment, Yan Ci suddenly smiled and said, "It seems that I have to believe it. There are too many overlapping coincidences."

Du Zijin smiled and said, "I also believe in Buddhism. Then let me make an agreement with Ah Ci. This life and the next life, three lives and three lives, and life after life. We all have to..."

Du Zijin looked up, saw Yan Ci's cold eyes, smiled softly, and said, "May A Ci and I, this life and the next life, three lives and three lives, and life after life. We are all destined to... be able to know each other."

After Du Zijin finished speaking, he looked at Yan Ci cautiously, his eyes flickered, as if eagerly seeking an answer.Yan Ci was stunned.Smiled lightly and nodded slightly.

Du Zijin's eyes were full of light, and joy was like the ubiquitous wind, permeating the world.

Du Zijin pulled the red gauze on Yan Ci's body, and said, "Recently, have you ever received a letter from Ye An's family?"

Yan Ci nodded with a smile, "Shangyang Academy really deserves to be the No. [-] Academy in Beijing. Ye An has only passed away for a few days. I feel that his temperament has changed a little. After a long time, he will definitely achieve something in the future."

Seeing that Yan Ci was happy, Du Zijin himself became happy too, and wanted to say more, when he suddenly heard Ah Jiu's voice outside the door, "Your Highness, it's time for dinner. In addition, the portrait of the Bamboo House in Baihe Valley that His Highness wants It has also been brought."

"Bamboo House in Baihe Valley?" Yan Ci was puzzled, and turned to look at Du Zijin. Du Zijin got up and got out of bed, took Yan Ci's hand and walked out.

Yan Ci broke free and removed the red gauze from his body, just now he followed Du Zijin half a step and walked out.

Ah Jiu had already bowed and waited at the door. Seeing Du Zijin and Yan Ci come out, she hurriedly said, "Your Highness, Lord Yan."

After speaking, he handed a scroll in his hand to Du Zijin.Yan Ci stood behind Du Zijin.Du Zijin turned around and smiled at Yan Ci before opening the scroll.

Yan Ci stood behind Du Zijin, so he could see clearly.In the painting, the trees are overgrown, and a pool of lake water reflects the reflection of the white crane standing up.

But these ingenious and beautiful scenery are just a corner of the picture scroll. What this picture really depicts is a delicate and small bamboo house.It doesn't look like there are two floors above and below.But it is a verandah pavilion.Everything you need.

"The scenery of Piaoquan is panoramic. Your Highness traveled with me last time. There is such a bamboo house. Why don't you tell me?"

Yan Ci complained softly, but his eyes were fixed on the scroll and he couldn't move away.

Ah Jiu laughed. "Your Excellency was joking. This bamboo house was built by Your Highness after Your Highness visited with His Highness last time, and it has just been completed. The last time Your Highness went there, of course, there was no such blessing."

Hearing that it was built by Du Zijin, Yan Ci couldn't help laughing, "His Royal Highness is really an elegant person. This idea is really wonderful."

Ah Jiudao, "My Highness, this bamboo house was built for adults. It has nothing to do with elegance, it's just for the sake of adults' liking."

"Ah Jiu!" Du Zijin shouted.Although the voice was loud, there was no anger.

Ah Jiu scratched his head and smiled, and said, "Go down and ask them to pass the dinner over. My lord and His Highness will wait here for a while." After speaking, she ran away in a hurry.

Only Yan Ci and Du Zijin were left standing in place, as if seeing Yan Ci's embarrassment, Du Zijin said proactively, "It was you who said last time that Piaoquan has beautiful scenery, but it's a pity that we can't see it every day. I made up my mind to build this bamboo house. If you have free time in the future, you can go and stay for a while.”

Yan Ci only nodded slightly with his head down and his blushing face. Du Zijin looked at the top of Yan Ci's head, smiled and stopped talking.
