Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

I was standing quietly on that path alone, and the wind blew through, all the dead wood branches around it were rattling, and fine snow spray continued to blow on my face.

Soon, it was melted by the hot stuff pouring out of the eyes.

Snow water, with a little warmth, dropped drop by drop.

I just stood there like this, I do n’t know how long it was, I heard the sound of wonderful words in the wind, and she hurried to this side with a few girls, and when I saw that I was standing in this dark little On the road, hurriedly came over, “Mother, why are you here?”

I looked up and looked at her: “Ah?”

“You haven’t been back for a long time. I’m worried that it’s broken.”

“…”

“Why are you standing here, hey, your hands are freezing cold!”

“…”

“Mother, what’s wrong with you?”

She said, holding my hand and rubbing me constantly, staring at me with wide eyes. Her fingertips were stained with a little warmth, and I seemed to have finally drawn back a little sanely, looking down at her: “Well, why are you out?”

“I waited for my mother to come back for dinner. After waiting a long time, the rice was going to be cold.”

“…”

“I also asked people to ask, Uncle Tieqi Wang said they all came back, but they worried me.”

She was obviously a child, but now she was talking and doing things, but she already had an adult look. I looked at her, only to feel that she could not shed tears, and her dry eyes were slightly astringent, and said gently: “Come on, let’s go back.”

She nodded, and immediately turned back and instructed the girls behind her: “Hurry back and close the stove.”

A little girl answered and immediately ran back.

Miao Yan held my hand in one hand and half held me in one hand: “Let’s go back, it’s cold outside.”

I didn’t talk anymore on this way. She was half-supported and half-holding and returned to the store. The warmth from the stove immediately melted a little of the snow foam on my body. The two little girls came up and changed for me. Immediately after the clothes, Wonderful Word pulled me to the table and filled a bowl of hot soup to my hand.

“Mother, let’s drink some warm soup first.”

“…”

I can’t eat anything, my heart seems to be stuffed into a cold stone, and I feel heavy even breathing, but when I hear her eager voice, I still take a sip and take another sip.

The soup that was just heated was still steaming, and I drank it from my mouth to my heart, but I drank it without knowing where my heart was.

Miaoyan kept watching me, she seemed to feel the blankness of me, and said softly, “Why did the mother just stand in that place? I heard them say, isn’t the mother going to find an old friend? did you find it?”

“…”

My hand trembled slightly, and the rest of the bowl of soup poured out.

The wonderful words were startled, hurriedly reached out to take over the bowl, and took out a handkerchief to wipe me: “Mother, is it hot?”

I shook my head: “It’s okay, mother is okay.”

I don’t know why, but in the warm room, the voice was dumb, and the sound of the wonderful words that heard me talking like that was stunned.

“Mother, what’s the matter with you?”

“…”

“Isn’t my mother always asking people to go to the city to find your old friend these days? I heard that the people sent by the Emperor also returned today. Did they find it?”

“…”

“Is there any news?”

I just feel that the big stone in my chest is falling heavily, and it will almost break my heart. I shook my fist hard, and just after I was burnt, some hot tiger mouths also seemed to be torn. Normally, I said calmly, “No news, no news at all.”

“Really? That mother’s old friend–“

“I don’t know where he went, but since there is no news, he should just leave.”

“…”

“he left……”

Miaoyan looked at me quietly, not knowing what she saw from my face, but only felt her breath sinking, and after a while, she said softly: “That mother, continue to find him?”

I shook my head: “No more.”

“…”

“Never look again.”

“…”

“No news is good news.”

“…”

“He must have left, he must have been freed from the shackles of the past, and free.”

“…”

“I’m not looking.”

“…”

Miaoyan still looked at me quietly. After a long time, she suddenly leaned over and reached out and gently hugged me. There was an unexhausted chill brought in from my body and she was so close to her warm body Then, let me have a little shudder, she said softly: “That’s all right, my mother’s old friend must have left and gone for a good life.”

“…”

“Mother, don’t worry anymore, mother should take good care of herself.”

“…”

“Mother like this, in fact, it should be because others are worried about you.”

I lowered my head and felt her cheek against my chest, rubbing it lightly. The natural closeness between mother and daughter gave me a little warmth in my chest. I reached out and touched her. On the top of my head, I stroked it gently and said, “My wonderful words are about to get married, and my mother should worry about it, it is getting less and less.”

“…”

“In the future, you will worry about your family. You will have children and your grandchildren. You will worry about them.”

“Yeah, no matter what, I won’t forget my mother.”

I smiled slightly at her.

There seemed to be tears in his eyes, but they could no longer flow.

|

That night, I did n’t eat anything. The coquettish words seemed to feel that something was hard in my heart, and it did n’t force me. She must sleep with me at night because she will be married tomorrow. , There is rarely a chance to sleep with me again.

It is rarely said, but I also understand in my heart that there is almost no chance.

The two took a good bath, with a touch of tenderness and fragrance. She got into the quilt and hugged me. As a child, she put her face on my chest, and one hand crossed her. waist.

It seems as if I’m afraid who took me away.

I smiled and said, “It’s so wonderful, it reminds my mother of her past in Jixiang Village.”

“…”

“It’s not honest to sleep at night.”

Coquettishly said, “I hope that I will always be at that time.”

“…”

“In that case, I can stay with my mother forever.”

“…”

“And Aunt Yunxiang they treat me well, and the children in the village play with me.”

She said, her breath became a little thicker, and she said softly, “Although at that time, we were not rich at all, my mother was still busy with the work of those embroidered women every day, and I also helped to twist the threads, but so many years have passed. Now, ma’am, I think it was my happiest time. “

I smiled: “How old are you, what is the happiest time?”

“…”

“You still have decades to live. In these decades, there are still so many sweet and sour bitters waiting for you. There must be a happier time than that, or maybe there will be difficulties you can’t imagine. Holding you. “

When I heard that, she froze slightly.

I said, “But remember, no matter how turbulent the world is, be gentle and kind.”

“No matter how turbulent the world is, but be gentle and kind-hearted.” She repeated, and looked up at me again: “That’s what mother is, right?”

“…” I was speechless.

The coquettish words said: “While I was walking with Uncle Tieqi Wangbo, he often talked to my mother.”

“Oh?”

“He said,” Mother is a strange woman. It doesn’t seem like you should be in this world. “

I couldn’t help but smile: “What’s this?”

She thought about it and said, “Uncle Tieqi Wang said that the mother’s eyes always looked forward, and rarely looked backwards, but the mother did not seem to be in front of her eyes.”

This is a bit of a nonsense.

I said, “What does he mean?”

The coquettish words said: “Uncle Tieqi Wang said that what mother saw was like a hundred years, thousands of years later.”

“After thousands of years?”

“Yes,” she nodded. “Uncle Tieqi Wang said that people thousands of years ago, Ru Mao drinking blood, barbarism, now we have learned the etiquette, better and better than before. And Qianbai People in the years to come may be more ritual and intellectual than they are now, and better than we are now, right? “

“…”

I lowered my head, although I could not see her, but the candlelight by the bed was in front of me, and I could see her outline faintly, and I could imagine how her bright eyes looked at me seriously.

I smiled and said, “Maybe.”

She said, “What does that mother see, how will people be thousands of years later?”

“…”

I thought about it for a long time, and said, “My mother didn’t know it, but I think what we can’t do now, people should be able to do it thousands of years later.”

“Like–“

“For example, my mother-in-law, she used her lifelong persistence in exchange for the opportunity to enter the ancestral hall, but the mother thought that after a thousand years, women may not need to persist for a lifetime. They can choose where they come from or they can Choose your own place. “

“…”

“For example, her cousin Yan Ruoyu, her brother is a straw bag, she is smart and capable. However, because she is a daughter and is destined to be a” foreigner, “their family’s business would rather be put in the hands of her brother. If you lose, you can’t give it to her and let her be the owner. Maybe in the future, as long as a woman is competent, she can be the owner. “

“…”

“For example, the Central Plains and Shengjing are always arguing, but in fact, there are no hard hatreds. Maybe in the future, we can be a family. At that time, there is no king of the earth, all people, You do n’t need to be hostile anymore. People live and work in peace, why not do it? “

“…”

“Also, there are many more …”

I said, the voice was a little bit astringent, saying: “Now we are accustomed to it, because of pain and something we don’t know, but maybe it will change slowly in the future.”

“…”

“By that time, maybe there will be a golden age.”

“Heyday …”

Miao Yan said these two words gently, and said, “Mother is for this, so she has been helping the Emperor, the third uncle, and many other people, all right, right?”

There was a slight stab in my throat.

After all, she could see her, and she said immediately, “Mother, what’s wrong with you? Why are your eyes red?”

I hurriedly concealed and said, “Nothing, I just feel a little tired.”

“Then, let’s go to bed earlier, I’m not entangled with my mother.”

After that, she really let go of me and obediently leaned on my side.

I smiled, stretched out my hand and touched her cheek, which was obviously not as swollen as when I was a child. Now she is a little thin and her chin is obviously sharpened. Taking off the childishness of the child, she has already become a girl. Happy and sad, I said softly, “Your father emperor is a good emperor. Once he regains authority in the future, he will certainly be a good emperor.”

“…”

“This is what we always believe, no matter how he treats me and how we treat us.”

The wonderful words looked up at me.

I said: “It’s also because of this, your uncle insisted on staying with him and sent me to Jiangnan to find you.”

With that said, my throat was too tight to say a word, and I was more afraid of what I said, and tears would flow out of my control. I could only close my eyes silently and closed my mouth.

However, after a moment of silence, the sound of the wonderful words was very light and very light, and even a little timid, sounded in the ear-

“This is also mother, would you like to leave Dad?”

“…!”

My heart jumped.

Pei Yuanxiu.

Since these days, Wonder Woman has clearly known the confrontation between us, and even knows that her father-in-law and her father-in-law are a life-and-death relationship, she never mentioned this person again. Sometimes, I She almost thought she had forgotten him.

It turns out that there isn’t.

I felt it from the moment she spoke, she didn’t forget.

Not only was this person not forgotten, even, she may have been holding her like a rock, but she couldn’t talk.

I whispered: “Wonderful words …?”

The voice of the wonderful words was also a little astringent, saying: “This time, Uncle Tieqi Wang hit Dongzhou. In fact, I know that the next step is that the emperor will go south from Dongzhou to attack the capital.

“…”

“A Dad is in Beijing.”

“…”

“Father Emperor and Mother, you are going to deal with Dad, right?”

At the last word, her voice was shaking.

I slowly stood up and stroked her face with one hand, only to find that the corners of her eyes were already full of tears.

We all seem to ignore this daughter.

Even I know that she grew up with Pei Yuanxiu, and even I am willing to believe that, no matter what, Pei Yuanxiu will not start her wedding tomorrow, but how can we forget that her heart to her Dad, do you have an indelible feeling?
