Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

I froze for a moment.

Seriously, I did n’t have the mental preparation to see the women in this mansion too quickly, no matter what it does, no matter how beautiful it is, or ordinary, but a big beauty is standing under the eaves in front of her eyes, looking bright It surprised me.

My footsteps stopped there, and for a while I didn't think about how to take the next step, and the second brother of the Zhao family stopped beside me and looked up at the woman.

There seems to be a moment of stagnation in time.

The next moment, Zhao Yuncheng had already reacted. He coughed and said to me, "This is, Girl Juan Juan."

Girl ... that is, a woman who is not yet married.

But when I glanced at the past, I quickly found that although this woman was beautiful, she was no longer young, probably not much younger than me; maybe because of her age, her smile and temperament were revealed. An elegant calmness came, as if--

Seems like the sandalwood lingering around the tip of the nose in the temple.

I don't know why I have such thoughts, but when I look at the woman again, I immediately understand why I feel that she is so quiet.

She was wearing plain clothes.

Generally unmarried women cannot be dressed like this if their parents are alive; if they are married, their parents-in-law cannot be dressed like this, and they will be scolded as Dai Xiao. But the girl must be pretty, and she must be filial. Her so plain dress did make her look more handsome than herself.

Wu Juan ... It's also a good name.

At this time, the girl Juan Juan had stepped down the stairs and said with a smile, "It's Miss Yan."

"Yes, Miss Juan Juan."

Her smile was very gentle, but with a sense of alienation that she should have met for the first time, she said: "I heard them before, and Miss Yan came back to Sichuan recently, but she didn't expect to come so soon.

"Excuse me."

"Where. Miss Yan has had a hard trip, please go take a rest first."

"Thanks a lot."

She made a please gesture, and I took Susu as they walked in. There was no special arrangement in the lobby, but it was also quite clean and bright, because the sun was going down and the light quickly dimmed. The servant came up and lit the lampstand, then delivered hot tea.

I sat in the guest's chair on the left and looked up. She sat to the right of the main seat.

Zhao Yuncheng stood behind me and frowned.

Wu Juan put her hands on the armrest on one side, and she was sitting in a very elegant posture. She said to me gently, "Ms. Yan is coming all the way, it must be very hard."

"It's okay. After entering Sichuan, the road will be ripe."

"I heard that the owner of the Yan family also sent someone to pick up the young lady."

"Yes."

"We all thought that the young lady would go to Chengdu first, so—"

As soon as I came, they were all surprised that I came so soon, so I was prepared quickly and laughed quickly: "This is my decision, I hope I didn't disturb your government."

"Dare not dare."

You two came and talked with me. I didn't feel anything in this woman's words, except for the due alienation, the hospitality, and the rest, I didn't feel anything.

It's normal, a little abnormal.

Of course, there is something abnormal.

Zhao Yuncheng waited for us to talk about a stage and asked, "Ms. Juan Juan, what about the third master?"

I also looked up.

After a while, I haven't seen Liu Qinghan.

What about others?

Wu Juan said immediately: "I didn't expect Miss Yan to come so soon. San Ye didn't prepare today. He went out."

"Go out? Where have you been?"

"Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, he went to the street to watch the lantern."

"..."

"..."

Zhao Yun and I glanced silently at Chengdu.

A short while, he said, "I should have someone come back earlier to inform you."

Wu Juan said: "I have sent someone to the street to find, but-Ms. Yan, sorry, you also know that there are many people on the Mid-Autumn Festival. He is not allowed to follow today, I am afraid, it is not easy to find."

I nodded: "I know, we are in a hurry."

After saying this, I was silent.

Wu Juan and Zhao Yuncheng were also silent for a while, but Juan Juan said immediately: "Although this is the case, Miss Yan's room was prepared a few days in advance. Would you like to go and see?"

I thought about it and turned back to Su Su: "Take Shuyuan with you, take your luggage and organize it."

"Yes," Susu agreed, and asked me again, "Well, what about you, Miss?"

"I'll wait here."

"Oh."

She promised that Juan Juan immediately let her and Zhao Shuyuan take her to the back, and the others were taken by Zhao Yuncheng to settle down and rest.

In the lobby, I and Juan Juan are left.

I looked back and the two looked at each other and both smiled.

The sky outside was even darker. Only a little red light was seen on the sky in the distance. I do n’t know if it was the light from the lanterns on the street. In the distance, there was laughter and laughter.

I laughed: "Why, did Miss Juan Juan go to the lantern?"

She shook her head.

She didn't say anything, but she bowed her head and made me see a trace of loneliness.

I really want to ask what should not be asked and what should not be touched.

For a while, the two quieted down again, until Zhao Yuncheng settled Wenhu and a group of them. When they came over again and saw the two of us were still here, they said to me, "Light, the lantern festival will be held until It was late, and it was-it was funded by our government, and he was afraid that he would not return in a short time. "

"Oh."

"You should go down and rest first."

I thought about it, stood up, and said, "I'll go out and see."

"what?"

At this moment, they both froze, looked at me, and laughed: "It's a bit hard to come along this way, so it's hard to see the beautiful scenery, and I also want to go for fun."

When Zhao Yuncheng heard me say this, I felt that my mood didn't seem to be affected, and he laughed, "Well, I'll go with you."

"Do not bother."

"It's not a problem. What if you get here?"

"Oh, that's fine."

We said in three or two words, he took me to go out, but just stopped at the door and stopped. Zhao Yuncheng looked back at Juan Juan and coughed again: "Girl Juan Juan, don't you go together? "

She Juan was standing deep in the lobby, and the flickering candlelight on her face had a feeling of uncertainty. She smiled and shook her head. The feeling of loneliness once again rose in my heart.

She said, "I won't go."

|

I didn't expect that when I came to Laoshan, the first thing I did was to watch the lantern.

Walked out of the gate, turned over the street, and immediately ushered in a bright light in front of the bustling pedestrians, shops on both sides are open, all kinds of shouts, greetings, and children playing and playing sounds like a surge Usually come head-on.

I couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, so lively."

Zhao Yuncheng walked beside me and laughed: "It's really good."

"Here, how much does it cost?"

"I don't know. His money is not in my control."

"So, who is in charge?"

"……moon."

It was no accidental answer. I kept walking, and continued to walk forward, looking at the various gorgeous lanterns on both sides, and asked, "Who is that girl, Juanjuan?"

"I'm not very clear," said the second elder brother of the Zhao family, who was a little hesitant and said for a while, "She was in this other hospital before we came, and has been in this other hospital. At first, I thought she was The son-in-law's wife and concubine, but— "

"of course not."

I asked Yan Qinghan, and he himself told me that he is a precept and has no marriage.

Zhao Yuncheng glanced at me as if he felt something, and suddenly said, "All the people left by Yan Gongzi, he didn't move."

"Ok?"

I turned to look at him, Zhao Yuncheng said: "He said that for at least three years, he will not touch Yan Gongzi's people, Yan Gongzi's system of action."

"..."

"So, all these people are left before."

"..."

"Including, Juan."

Do not change course for three years-it's like Liu Qinghan is observing filial piety for Yan Qinghan. Although the two people have no relationship at all, they have inherited each other's family business. This way of Liu Qinghan, I Can understand.

I laughed: "He has his point."

At this point, it seems as if there is nothing to say. The two of us walked silently on the street, but this silence didn't seem obtrusive at all, because the surroundings were too lively, so I rubbed my shoulders and walked to the most lively section, If he can open the way for me in front, I can go forward smoothly.

Turn another street and see the moat.

It is a stream that divides the river into the city. The current is not too rapid, and the channel is not too wide, but it is enough to carry the lights of a river, dazzling, and the stars are flowing to the distance.

After walking for a while, my ankle was a little bit sour, so I sat on the stone pier by the river, and asked Zhao Yuncheng to go around and see if he could find Liu Qinghan. He promised, and I must not go far away. Then he went to the crowded place on the other side.

I sat on the pier, dropped my knees, and looked around.

It's really good scenery.

I saw a child running forward with a bunch of sugar gourds, young parents behind him chasing after him, the laughter of the family spread far; a pair of lovers, guessing on the roadside, no Knowing what the young man said in the young girl's ear, it caused the other side to laugh for a while, and kept his fists hanging on his chest; not far away was a small ferry, a white-skinned middle-aged man A river lantern was slowly put into the river, I didn't know what to pray for; there was also an old man, full of silver wire, standing on the side of the road with a cane, looking at the colorful lanterns, and his cloudy eyes were full. Streaming light, smiled at the corners of his mouth, do not know what I thought of.

Everyone has their own sadness and joy.

What about Liu Qinghan?

Where is he in the crowd? What is his mood now?
