White Hedge Dream

Zhou Jingyun put on his clothes, sat down by the bed and looked at Zhuang Li.

The lights in the room were bright, but she didn't know if the lights were too bright. Her eyebrows were a little blurred and she couldn't see clearly.

In fact, he didn't see her clearly before.

He asked Mr. Zhuang to marry him. After Mr. Zhuang agreed, she did not come out. She only expressed through Mrs. Zhuang that she would obey the arrangements of Mr. and Mrs. Zhuang.

The first time they met was at a wedding, with their headscarves lifted.

But at that time, he was wary of Zhang Ze in the front hall and worried about Mr. Zhuang in the back hall. There were many people, lights, shadows and makeup, and he couldn't see clearly what he looked like. Then he served Mr. Zhuang, and then presented his new wife outside the city gate. carriage.

She was wearing filial piety, plain clothes and a clean face, and he could see her appearance clearly for the first time.

When he thought of this, Zhou Jingyun couldn't help but pursed his lips. Fortunately, he had a glance, otherwise he would not have recognized his wife when he saw her in his mother's house when he returned home.

He didn't know anything about this wife either, except that she was Bai Xun's daughter and was accepted as a disciple by Madam Zhuang.

The person is not very nice, Zhou Jingyun pursed his lips. Just now at his mother's side, Mrs. Dongyang Hou complained, "Who are you looking for? Do you know how bad her behavior and words are?"

How bad a girl can be is just because of the dissatisfaction caused by her status as his wife. He motioned to Zhuang Li: "Sit down and talk."

Zhuang Li walked over and sat down as he said, looking at him.

"Why is it not good?" Zhou Jingyun asked, and then added, "I asked you earlier if you had been wronged at home. If you were wronged and had to protect yourself, it is not your fault."

Zhuang Li said: "I said before that my mother passed away when she gave birth to me."

Zhou Jingyun nodded.

"So, my Kemu is considered unlucky." Zhuang Li said.

Well, Zhou Jingyun was about to speak, but Zhuang Li intercepted him again: "It's really ominous. Not only my mother, but also the people around me have been prone to bad things since I was a child. That's why I sold myself. I scratched off the name from the family tree just because I don’t want to affect the Bai family.”

At this point, she laughed to herself.

"But it still didn't work."

"Not only the Bai family, but also Mr. Zhuang after taking me in -"

"Mr. Zhuang is also dead." Zhou Jingyun took the words and looked at Zhuang Li, "Mrs. Zhuang, you, me, my family, everyone in this world is going to die."

Zhuang Li looked at him for a moment and smiled: "I know that the prince dares to bring home prisoners, so naturally he is not afraid of these things, but I still have to tell you these things."

She paused here.

"You see, I am an unlucky person. Even the lotus buds I make can make people sicker..."

Lotus bud.

Regarding the lotus buds, although he interrupted his mother and others to talk about it, he also learned about it from the stories told by Li Fu and Ding Anbo.

The so-called lotus bud scared Li Shilang to death. General Li actually didn't believe it at all. He went to Ding'an Bo Mansion just to vent his anger.

Uncle Ding'an not only thought that General Li could not do anything to the Wang family in Shangguan Mansion, so he picked on him to bully him. He also thought that the mother at home was obsessed with burning incense and chanting Buddha. The servants and maids at home went crazy to please them. They were obsessed with ghosts and ghosts all day long, and Lu Wenjie was also attracted by them. The heart aperture.

Mrs. Ding'anbo also had other intentions when she brought Lu Jin to the house to cause trouble.

They keep talking about evil things, but they don't believe it at all. They just want to achieve what they want.

He couldn't let them ruin Zhuang Li's reputation in order to fulfill their own selfish desires, so he kept suppressing it.

He didn't even plan to ask Zhuang Li.

Although this woman retorted confidently when asked by Mrs. Ding Anbo and her voice was loud enough to be heard standing in the yard, she was still feeling uneasy.

Zhou Jingyun looked at Zhuang Li's slightly frowning brows and said, "Is it unlucky for the little maid in Ding'an Bo Mansion to watch the lotus buds in her dream to survive?"

Zhuang Li didn't seem to expect that he would say this: "That's because she is blessed with great fortune—"

Zhou Jingyun smiled and interrupted her: "Then Li Shilang has a poor fortune and a short life, what does it have to do with you." Before Zhuang Li could speak, "You are a disciple of Mr. and Mrs. Zhuang, don't say such stupid words again."

Zhuang Li looked at him for a moment, then pursed his lips and smiled: "I met Mrs. Zhuang at that time, and the reason why I sold myself to her was because she said she could cure my ominous disease."

Mrs. Zhuang must have been ten years old when she met her. Zhou Jingyun thought that Mrs. Zhuang was also very good at coaxing children, as he listened to Zhuang Li's voice continue to come.

"After following my wife, she taught me reading, making incense, playing music, meditating and many other things. I am indeed much better."

"However, I have been very cautious in these years and rarely appear in front of others. When I come to your place, I try not to be in front of Mrs. Hou. I don't go out if I can."

"besides….."

Speaking of this, Zhuang Li looked at Zhou Jingyun.

"When the storm has passed, we will make peace as soon as possible."

After the limelight passed, Zhou Jingyun looked at the dancing lights and smiled: "Don't think so much yet, the limelight has just begun."

Yes, Zhang Ze didn't know about her existence before, but now he knows about her, and his escape and hiding has just begun.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

"The days are long, let's rest first." Zhou Jingyun said.

Zhuang Li nodded and said hello, looked at the bed behind him and asked, "Is the prince sleeping inside or outside?"

Zhou Jingyun said, "I'll sleep outside." Zhuang Li said good, went to bed as promised, and said, "Your Majesty, then come and turn off the lights."

Her tone was very relaxed and familiar, just like a real wife telling her husband. Zhou Jingyun pursed his lips. This was actually the first time they slept together.

The lights in the room went out one by one, and the tent fell into darkness.

The breathing of the two people could be heard in the silence.

"You really don't have to think so much." Zhou Jingyun said suddenly, "I brought you to the capital. If Li Julang is really evil, I brought it to him. If it's true, it's me who brings the evil."

Zhuang Li chuckled and nodded in the darkness: "Your Majesty is right."

Zhou Jingyun's voice also had a smile: "Go to sleep." After saying that, he turned outwards, and then heard Xisuo Zhuangli turned inwards.

There was no sound in the tent anymore, and the sound of breathing became calmer and calmer.

Zhuang Li looked at the night in the tent. Although what she just said was half-truth and half-false, it still revealed something about her own situation.

It was okay to be half honest with Zhou Jingyun. After all, she was not a very nice person. In addition to being ominous, it was also normal to lie. Zhuang Li closed his eyes and merged with the darkness.

The person behind her must be asleep, breathing long and relieved. Zhou Jingyun thought to herself, looking at the bed curtain in the night, she didn't need to say so much.

He didn't care what kind of person she was, what kind of temperament she had, or what kind of past she had.

Zhou Jingyun closed his eyes and sank into the night.

…

…

The night is dark, but the lights in the capital are still bright, and the brightest place is the imperial city.

The emperor was sitting in the royal study, looking through the memorials on the desk boredly.

The great **** Gao Twelve was holding tea beside him: "Your Majesty, it's late at night and it's time to rest. The Queen is waiting for you. Just now, I asked someone to come and make your Majesty's favorite snack."

The emperor made a sound and said: "There are still a few memorials, I will talk about them after reading them."

Looking at the memorial in his hand, what appeared was not words, but a picture.

The scene of Bai Ying kneeling on the ground.

It seemed like he didn't even have any shoes on.

The emperor sighed inwardly. Bai Ying was very particular about etiquette. Because she came from a family of military commanders, she felt vulgar and strictly followed the rules after entering the palace.

Now it looks like this...

Never seen before.

Inexplicably, it makes people even more distracted.

"...Your Majesty, if you don't want to go to Concubine Li, you can go to Concubine Li. I asked the palace maid to tell you that my foot was sprained."

Concubine Li was a beauty who entered the palace last year. She was young and charming at the age of seventeen or eighteen. She had been deeply favored in the past two years, but at this time the emperor had no interest.

Bai Ying has lost a lot of weight and will fall down if the wind blows.

The **** Wang Degui who walked in from the door sneered in his heart, Gao Twelve, you can't even figure out the emperor's thoughts. This **** is really in trouble.

"Your Majesty," Wang Degui said loudly, raising the scroll in his hand, "The portrait of the White Lady has been painted. Can you send it to Zhang Zhongcheng?"

Gao Twelve's face sank and he shouted: "Nonsense, where is the White Lady in the palace?"

Wang Degui knelt down with a frightened expression: "I deserve to die. I was wrong."

"She was once my concubine, and now she is still in the palace. It is not wrong to call her White Lady." The emperor said, looking at Gao Twelve displeasedly, "What are you making such a fuss about?"

Gao Twelve hurriedly laughed and said: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that this sinful woman will tarnish your Majesty's reputation."

The emperor's face became even more ugly. When Empress Chiang was in power, he was very cautious about his reputation. He was frightened by being praised or scolded, for fear of offending Empress Chiang and losing his life.

Now that he has finally become emperor, is he still trapped by his reputation?

"General Manager Gao is overly worried. How can His Majesty's reputation be tarnished by others?"

Wang Degui's voice came.

The emperor looked at him and saw that the chamberlain was just an imperial eunuch, with a smile on his face but arrogant eyes.

When Empress Chiang was in power, everyone around her behaved in this unruly manner.

However, these people looked down at him at that time, but now they are bending down and looking up at him.

Now he is in power.

Naturally, there should be people like this around him.

The emperor signaled to him: "Bring it, I'll take a look first."

Wang Degui responded respectfully, crossed Gao Twelve, and unfolded the scroll on the table in person.

Under the bright palace lantern, a woman wearing white clothes and sitting on her knees appeared in sight.
