Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

He just walked forward calmly, took a few steps to realize that I didn't keep up, then stopped and looked back at me.

"what happened?"

"..."

I stood behind, watching his throat slightly blocked.

He opened his clear eyes and looked at me.

He is also a handsome young man, although compared to what I know, it is as brilliant as Huang Tianba, and the brothers in Tianjia who are superior in appearance are worse than them, even his elder brother Liu Yi is better than him Much refined; he was raised in landscapes, with a natural ruggedness.

But I don't know why, now that rough is slowly being smoothed. When he stood looking at me in the white snow, he felt a kind of wholeness.

At this moment, although my heart was beating constantly, it seemed to touch a needle, and every time my heart beat, there was a slight pain.

I smiled: "Nothing."

He glanced at me again.

I thought about it and said, "I think you are still you, but you are not the same as you."

He heard this sentence, but for a moment, he laughed quickly, continued to turn around and walked forward, said while walking: "My heart has not changed, but I can't change it when I get to this place." Then he looked at me and said, "You taught me."

"Me?" I laughed dumbly: "When did I teach you?"

He laughed: "Although in Jixiang Village, although you have always had a lot of heart, you didn't think too much. When they embarrassed you, you didn't do anything to them."

"..."

"But on the hall that day," he said, and his expression sank. "I saw your face was very difficult. Just like when I was embarrassed by them, I think you were scared, so I--" But then I realized that you are just nervous, you are not afraid, because you have already prepared yourself for everything. "

"..."

"You taught me that in this place, this is needed to survive."

"..."

"I used to complain to you that I was constrained everywhere, but now I want to come, but actually I am constrained because I haven't done well enough and I am not sure enough."

"... So you today--"

He looked at me and laughed: "I am confident that I have done everything, and I must do everything. Only in this way can I win!"

Looking at the firm light coming out of his clear eyes, I felt both familiar and unfamiliar. In fact, he was like this from the beginning, but the environment and the identity were different, and the complexity of Vientiane made me feel more and more strange.

For a moment, my feet slipped, and the whole person fell down.

"Be careful!"

He reached out his hand in a hurry, and I fell into his arms with a sting, and the cold cheeks pressed against his undulating chest, and suddenly a scent and warmth that belonged to him melted around.

My heart was a fierce jump.

He also seemed to froze, and for a moment lost his response.

The wind and snow became more and more urgent.

After some time, a pair of warm, but trembling hands stretched over and supported my shoulders. I looked up suddenly as if awakened, only looking at his snowy eyes and looked down at me: "Is everything right?"

"..." Just a move, I frowned.

Although he didn't fall, he felt a pain in his ankle and stomped.

Seeing my frown all of a sudden, he hurriedly helped me to walk to the side of the stone pier, flicked off the snow on the sleeve with a sleeve, took off his coat and spread it, and then helped me to sit down, "Does it hurt? Where did it hurt?"

I frowned, biting my lower lip in pain, he carefully held my feet, and squeezed little by little: "here? Here?" I suddenly hit the ankle, and I whispered: " what--"

He quickly let go of his hand and said, "Is this here?"

"Ok."

"It's okay, come, I'll rub it for you."

After that, he gently rubbed my ankle with his fingers across the socks. His fingerings are not light or heavy, and they are just right. I also feel better, and laughed: "Why do you still have this?"

He lowered his head and helped me pinch his feet carefully, saying, "After the master's eyes are broken, he doesn't listen to people's advice, often hits and falls, and often has injuries on his body. That's how I help him pinch. Does it hurt?"

"Well, much better."

"Be careful later, go back and wipe with medicinal wine ..."

As he asked, he continued to rub my feet. I looked down at him and couldn't see the expression on his face. I could only see that the slender eyelashes were like black crow wings, flashing over the clear pairs. Every movement of the eyes seemed to fly away.

I looked at him like that, speechless.

As if feeling my gaze, he looked up at me and smiled: "What have you been watching me for?"

"..." I thought for a long time before laughing, and said gently: "It's nothing, I just-remembered something when I was a kid."

"what's up?"

Speaking of that time, my smile was somewhat reluctant, and I tickled my lips and said, "I remembered that time, it was already difficult, and I needed help to survive, but my mother kept telling me to read, read and learn. Qin Qi calligraphy and painting, learning needlework women. "

"..."

"At that time, I was still young. I could n’t eat enough food and could n’t play. I still had to learn so much. I was really annoyed. I lost my temper. I said, what ’s the use of learning so much? You learn so much, you wo n’t appreciate it. "

"What did your mother say?"

"..." My thoughts were a little hesitant, and I was silent for a while, then slowly said, "My mother told me, no matter if anyone knows, I should go and learn. I only need to learn wonderfully, others, old God will come and arrange it for me. "

"..."

"I haven't understood the meaning of my mother's words, but when I saw you now, I felt that my mother was right."

"why?"

I smiled, looked down at his eyes, and said, "If you still only fish, then God will of course let you stay in the fishing village for a lifetime; if you know the literacy and want to know more, God Will let you go to the academy; when you learn more, think more, and expect more, God will naturally arrange you to a better place. "

He listened slightly and stared at me with wide eyes.

I laughed: "Light cold, you are responsible for the wonderful, just the other, God will arrange it."

He was speechless for a long while, but there was something dignified in his eyes, but he didn't say anything. He just rubbed my ankle slowly. When it didn't hurt any more, he lowered my ankle gently and stood. Get up and turn to the lake, watching a blank snow in front of me.

Everything in the heavens and the earth is white, there is a way to see when it does not come, and do not know how the future will be.

I sat on the pier behind him and quietly accompanied him.

The two people were standing one behind the other, sitting and talking, without any movement, just listening to the falling snowdrops one after another, time passed little by little in the throbbing sound, but little by little Not boring, not even cold.

Looking at his back, just looking at it this way, as if he could feel his temperature and feel warm.

I don't know how long, he turned to look at me, a little cool in his eyes, and slowly said: "What about you?"

"..."

"Where will God arrange you?"

He asked this question deeply, but also asked a little silly. I smiled: "I don't know."

I can't predict, even if I knew where he might go in the future, I didn't see his own way. The place I am going to and the place God has arranged for me always seem to be different. I've been fighting for half my life, fighting with God, and fighting against the Nine Temples and Three Temples of this imperial city.

Because, I still refuse to give in.

After a long time, I laughed loudly: "Maybe, I'll go to a place where the lights are dim."

.

I ca n’t think of what kind of lights I would go to, but after the day ’s exam, Liu Qinghan was picked up by the people in Duwei ’s house, and I was sent back to the palace by someone sent inside the palace. The door looked at the bright lights.

Today is really a lively day.

After the father-in-law, two little eunuchs who raised lanterns came hurriedly. As soon as they saw me, they said, "Master Yue, you are finally back."

"What's wrong, Father Jade, is there anything wrong with the Queen?"

"It's the emperor, the Royal Study has a call!"

My heart was agitated, and I didn't say anything. I was about to walk with the pain of my feet, but I saw him beckoning. A few eunuchs ran out behind me and carried a rattan chair. I staggered and said gently: "Mr. Liu just let a rumor come in. The emperor knew it and ordered the slave to arrange it."

"Oh……"

I didn't say much, after all, I couldn't go far enough with my feet, so I got on a rattan chair and went to the Imperial Study Room.

At this time, the sky was already dark, but the silver candle in the Royal Study was bright. When I saw the projection on the window from afar, the people were shaking, and there seemed to be a lot of people inside.

They stopped at the door, and Gong Yu helped me walk down carefully. In the past, I knocked on the door properly. When the people inside opened the door, I walked in carefully and bowed down, "Wei Chen met the emperor."

"Flat body."

His voice sounded, with a little coldness. I was okay, but I heard some people shouting. As soon as I looked up, I saw Pei Yuanzhang sitting directly above, although the candlesticks were burning on both sides, but under the shadow. On the contrary, his face added a few shades, and the pair of refined and restrained eyes were glittering with a sharp sword-like sharpness, which made people dare not look straight.

In front of him, several old ministers were kneeling.

I only recognized it briefly, and there was still no expression on my face. I respectfully walked over and said, "You are here just right, I am going to ask you, what are the people arrested in the examination room today?"

I arched my hand and replied: "If you return to the emperor, today the test room found a total of fourteen candidates who carried or replaced the test. They were-Yi Wei Sun Wei, Ding Yi Chen Sheng, and Wu Shijie ... This is the roster recorded by Wei Chen today, please look at the emperor. "

Every time I said one, those officials trembled, and when I finished, there was a pool of cold sweat on the floor below where everyone was kneeling.

When I had finished speaking, I presented the roster recorded in my hand.

Pei Yuanzhang took it, rolled his eyelids a few times, sneered, and threw the booklet in his hands to the ground, making a slamming noise. Those officials were still shrinking, and one of them was almost paralyzed with soft legs.

Pei Yuanzhang sneered: "It is a loss of morality and godliness for the first time to encounter such a large examination room fraud since the founding of the People's Republic of China!"

As soon as he said this, several officials were sweating under the rain, and they couldn't say clearly, staggering again and again: "The emperor, the emperor is wise, it is the crime of oversight by the officials and other officials!

"Convict?"

Pei Yuanzhang's mouth was slightly picky, and he looked at them: "How will you punish your sin?"
