Slave to Queen: One Night Bride

Chapter 150
Yong Xu was sent by Wu Jie, along with a clever maid.Was placed in a room just sitting.She is outstanding in appearance, her hair is combed into the unmarried woman's hairstyle that was popular at that time, it is a high concentric bun, with six gold hairpins inserted, an exquisite ivory comb inserted behind her head, a pair of butterfly emerald rings, her forehead There are plum blossoms on it, bright eyes and white teeth, peach cheeks and red lips.She wears a rose-red Shu brocade cotton mattress on her upper body, and a red Ruyi peony Shu brocade dress on her lower body. She is full of jewels and is very charming.

Yue Pengju came in and sat down opposite her: "Your official is Yue Pengju. The little lady traveled thousands of miles to come to Elong Town. I am very grateful."

Yong Xu was thinking about Yue Pengju's appearance all the way, but when he saw him coming in, his heart was pounding, and he was ten times more heroic than he imagined after just one glance, and said softly, "Blessings, Mr. Yue."

Yue Pengju glanced at her, but saw that she was dressed luxuriously and behaved softly, and she was completely different from his wife.He earnestly said: "Although the lower official is the envoy of Xuanfu, the mountains and rivers have not recovered, the two sages have not returned, and they dare not enjoy themselves. Adhering to the sages who worry about the world's worries, they dare not forget their form day and night. My wife and I usually only wear common clothes and eat Rice and wild vegetables, white noodles, pork, etc. are rare. I wonder if the little lady can share the joys and sorrows with the whole family? When the next official went to war, my wife Huashi and I marched and retreated together, so I had to help the little lady to cook at home alone. "

His question was something that Yong Xu had never thought of.At the beginning, she came here entirely with admiration for young heroes, and knowing that Yue Pengju was considered a high-ranking envoy, so she planned in her heart that even if she was concubine, she would at least be a member of the general's family, and, relying on her good looks, to be a The much-loved concubine of a contemporary famous general is not in vain of youth.

However, after hearing Yue Pengju's words, he couldn't help but feel cold.Xin Dao, being his wife and concubine is really not easy, the wife goes to the battlefield, the concubine stays in the vacant house, and it is impossible to have the so-called glory and wealth.

She is a smart girl, she observed the simple house when she was sitting in meditation, she was really poor, then she looked at Yue Pengju's clothes, that kind of sackcloth jacket, very simple, she immediately understood what he said was true.

She is young and young, and she is holding Prince Charming and Hua Qian Yue Xia, how can she be willing to be a concubine living alone in a vacant room and living a bitter cold life?But he didn't know how to answer Yue Pengju, so he hummed in panic.

Yue Pengju heard her voice like this, so he continued: "Since the little lady doesn't think so, how dare the officials forcefully delay the young lady's youth? Please leave now."

He left the room after speaking.

When they came out, Yu Peng and others were talking with the two veterans who sent Yongxu over.

Yue Pengju asked people to take out 10 copper coins and handed them over to the veteran, before saying, "Please bring a copy of the official revision letter to Mr. Wu, and thank him for his kindness."

The veteran came here on order, but seeing that Yong Xu had no intention of staying, they naturally didn't dare to say more, and then they left.

After everyone left, Yue Pengju breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that he was relieved, Yu Peng and the others had never seen Yue Pengju so nervous when something happened. They teased him and said, "Yue Xianggong, this little lady is very beautiful, why did you remove the beautiful blessing that came to your door? Be careful and regret it..."

Yue Pengju wiped his sweat and laughed, "Which woman can be more beautiful than my wife?"

When Yu Peng and the others saw that he was boasting about his wife, they all laughed. They never knew that Yue Pengju had such a side, and they all said, "Is it because they are afraid that Madam will come back to be the Lion Roar of the River East?"

"Haha, Mr. Yue is also afraid of guilt..."

"Guess everyone, Mr. Yue is really taking a concubine, what will happen when Madam comes back?"

"..."

Yue Pengju chuckled: "So what about fear? If I really take a concubine at home, when Madam comes back, not only will I be beheaded, but you will be beheaded too. I will sue you for abetting, so can you escape? Sigh, I really miss Mrs...”

Everyone couldn't laugh or cry, only to know that this famous general who has won all battles is indeed a "fear of internal affairs"!

On this day, Hua Rong anxiously waited for the news from the envoys. She no longer dared to go to the post house, so Zhang Xian and others went out to inquire, but she heard that Yu Wenxu was "guest" at the Prince's Mansion, and then, No more news.

She was helpless, but there was no news from Zhahe.The most worrying thing is that Zhang Xian and Liu Qi who went out to inquire about the news in the afternoon did not come back either.

She was alone in the palace, and gradually couldn't sit still.

Jin Wushu didn't know where he went except that he met once on the night of the Shooting Willow Festival, and he hasn't been seen these days. In the palace, there are only two stout maids serving, sweeping, cleaning and cooking.

She suspected that these two were spies planted by Jin Wushu, and the second maid did not understand Chinese, and she didn't want to say anything, so she had no one to talk to all day long.

In the evening, the moon rose.

Hua Rong wanders outside Jin Wushu's "palace".After coming here for several days, she has never really paid attention to the scenery of this place. This night, she was disturbed and walked alone, only to discover the very different scenery of this foreign country.

The whole palace is surrounded by luxuriant trees and colorful flowers, and a high stone wall separates it from the hillside behind.A zelkova tree-lined road looks like a dark green barrier.Then, on both sides are a kind of evergreen trees that cannot be named.

Hua Rong walked around along the path in the middle. At this time, the moonlight had just risen, and its clear light shone on a relatively open area.Hua Rong followed the moonlight and stopped at a few wild flower beds on a slightly higher ground. It was the fragrance of wild roses, annua, grass and other wild flowers and plants in spring.

She sat down on a wooden stake, feeling very disturbed, the queen mother could not leave, and the queen could not be rescued, so going out to the Kingdom of Jin by herself, besides trapping herself, what other meaning could there be?
The longing for Yue Pengju in his heart became more and more intense. The sweet taste of being newlyweds, even if the husband and wife have simple food and old clothes, is far better than being in this palace, facing a table of big fish and meat from foreign countries.

She sat for a while, and in her ears, she could hear the singing of a nightingale in the woods at the end of spring, followed by a strong fragrance wafting in the wind.

Surprised by the fragrance, she stood up slowly, under the cold moonlight, silently, a branch of wild thorn fruit stretched out in front of her.

She was startled, but saw the person standing in front of her, wearing a white Hanfu, like a scholar rushing for an exam, and wearing a familiar Dongpo turban on his head.

Then, the fruit-laden branch moved a little closer in front of her, almost across her nose, carrying a sweet spring fragrance.

She didn't pick it up, but he just smiled and said nothing, and continued to wander around, holding up the wild sourberry branch for a while to look at, and then bending down to look at the clusters of wild roses in front of him, or lifting a red flower to put it on the ground. Smell its fragrance in the nose, or watch the first drop of dew on the petals under the moonlight.

A big flying insect flew past him, seemed to land on Hua Rong's shoulder, stopped, he stretched out his hand, as if to grab it lightly, but the flying insect flew away.

Hua Rong looked at him coldly.

Still not paying attention, he put the wild thorn fruit beside him, sat down on a thick wooden stake, and pointed to another wooden stake, signaling Hua Rong to sit down.

Hua Rong still stood where he was, looking at him coldly.

He smiled, and took out a flute from his arms, but it was by no means a flute instrument, maybe it was a special instrument of their nation, but the song he played was lingering, not the rough and original ecology of the white mountains and black waters:
There are creepy grasses in the wild, and there is little dew.

There is a beautiful person, Qing Yang Wanxi.

Encounter meets my wishes.

There are creepy grasses in the wild, and they are all exposed.

There is a beautiful person, as graceful as Qingyang.

Encounter, and Zi Zhan.

This is the wild vine in the "Book of Songs". It talks about the vines that are green and grow in the wilderness. I meet a beautiful girl by chance, which is just what I want.

The tune is very lingering and melodious, under the moonlight, it has a gentle and cool atmosphere.

Hua Rong looked at his clothes in disbelief, at the flute in his hand, and at the moonlight in the sky, what was Jin Wushu doing?Waiting for Zhang Sheng in the West Wing?The son who failed the exam?

Isn't he the murderous commander of Jin Guo's southern invasion?

She suddenly laughed: "Jin Wushu, where are my two guards? Have you killed them already?"

"Hua Rong, you're such a disappointment! Such a beautiful day, why bother talking about those beatings and killings?"

Hua Rong stared at him carefully, as if seeing him for the first time.

This person, in fact, chose the wrong industry. He should not be a marshal who will become a marshal, but should be an actor and ensure that he acts like what he plays.

Jin Wushu finally stood up and walked in front: "Hehe, Hua Rong, I'm back."

It was like a man returning home, talking to his wife so familiarly.

Hua Rong still stood where he was, and asked stubbornly, "Where are my two guards?"

"I despise them as an eyesore, let them stay in my mansion temporarily for one night, and put them back tomorrow."

Hua Rong suddenly took a step back, looked at him warily, then turned around and left.

He took a step forward and quickly grabbed her hand. He was so strong that she couldn't struggle, so she was dragged into the room by him.

At the end of spring in the Northland, the nights were still cold. A stove had already been lit in the room, which was tidy and clean. There were some side dishes and a pot of shochu on the table. The two maids stepped back and closed the door.

Eight thick candles were lit in the corners of the room.

Hua Rong sat cross-legged opposite, under the bright candlelight exuded a faint fragrance, she was familiar with this fragrance, she saw it for the first time when she was in Liu Family Temple, it was a tribute candle only available in the court of Song Dynasty.There is also that kind of candlestick, made of pure gold, with a flying dragon carved on it, as exquisite as a handicraft.
