Adore Trick of Beauty

Nie Wushuang watched the palace people excitedly discussing how to worship, and on a whim, he joined in to listen. As I listened, a vague sense of melancholy arose in my heart. A little bit of melancholy turned into an unbreakable sadness. She forced a smile and rewarded the palace man, then she lay alone on the beauty's couch in the inner hall, staring blankly at the rising moon outside the window.

People in the full moon are reunited, and now she can no longer be reunited with her relatives.

Yang Zhi came into the inner hall and asked, "When does Nie Meiren plan to meet the prince?"

Nie Wushuang quietly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said calmly: "When the moon passes to the west, I will wait for him in the Buddhist hall."

Yang Zhi frowned: "In the Buddhist hall where the Queen Mother often worships Buddha?"

"Yes, otherwise where else would there be a Buddhist temple?" Nie Wushuang said calmly: "The queen punished me with grounding. I went to the Buddhist temple to chant sutras and pray all night long, and the queen couldn't say anything."

Yang Zhi nodded and quietly retreated.

Nie Wushuang looked at the huge full moon and let out a long sigh.

…

The Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet is extremely grand. The emperor first had a banquet with the important officials in the court, and then went to the harem to have a banquet with his concubines and relatives. Finally, all the ministers and several concubines and royal relatives will go to the "Yong'an Gate" tower to receive the people's congratulations and blessings. Finally, the entire capital lights off with gorgeous fireworks, and now the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed in a lively way.

Time passed slowly, and a huge full moon was already hanging in the sky. Xia Lan ignored Nie Wushuang's anger and put her into a red gauze dress embroidered with Ruyi auspicious patterns. In order to suppress the fiery color, Nie Wushuang put on another navy blue shirt as thin as a cicada's wings, regardless of the sweltering weather.

Nie Minghu had a heavy responsibility today, leading 30,000 imperial guards to inspect the imperial city. When it was dark, he had already sent someone to deliver moon cakes and a message, just to advise her to take care of herself and not to worry about him. Nie Wushuang asked someone to send her the clothes and shoes she had sewn for her eldest brother. The visitor asked her if she had anything to say to Commander Nie.

Nie Wushuang was stunned for a long time and sighed: "Just please, brother, don't worry about me."

Nie Wushuang looked at the happy faces of the people in the palace, but felt depressed in his heart. After having a hasty dinner, he sent them away one after another and went to disperse. Today there is no strict rules in the palace, so the palace people in each palace can move around freely after dark. The palace people cannot leave the harem to reunite with their families outside the palace, so it is also a good idea to take a break and chat and drink with the palace people they know well. kind of comfort.

Nie Wushuang gave the order, and all the palace people had left. Only Yang Zhi was waiting. Nie Wushuang looked at him with complicated eyes and asked, "Doesn't Eunuch Yang have anyone he knows that he can move around with?"

Yang Zhi smiled: "My servant has already made arrangements for those who should move around. There is no need to nag them now."

Nie Wushuang also smiled after hearing this. Yang Zhi used to be a palace man who walked in front of the emperor. He was able to sit safely in the palace and take the position of the palace manager. I guess he had his own way. I was really too worried.

Nie Wushuang looked at the sky. It was still early. At this time, the palace banquet had already begun. In Yonghua Hall, you could almost hear the loud laughter and the long sound of silk and bamboo. She sighed quietly: "When did Eunuch Yang meet His Royal Highness Prince Rui?"

Nie Wushuang rarely talked about Xiao Fengqing with Yang Zhi. Now the huge palace was lonely and empty. It would be awkward for the two of them to remain silent to each other, so she simply started the conversation and asked.

"Your Majesty?" Yang Zhi glanced at her cautiously, and after thinking for a while, a trace of memory appeared on his delicate face: "At that time, I was just a servant responsible for sweeping the palace garden. Once I saw His Highness Prince Rui climbing on the ground. When he climbed up the tree, the slave didn't know he was the Fifth Prince. When he asked him to come down, he suddenly smiled at the slave and said, 'If you ask me to come down, you have to catch me, otherwise I won't come down.'"

"The slave thought he must be joking. How could such a young child dare to jump from such a high tree? I didn't expect that he really dared. The slave hurriedly went to pick him up. The two fell into a ball, and the slave's arm was broken. His Highness Prince Rui’s foot was also swollen. Although the slave was not punished afterwards, he was still frightened. One day, the slave went to see His Highness Prince Rui and urged him not to do this in the future. In case the slave did not catch it, His Highness Prince Rui Wouldn't he jump down and fall to his death?"

"But he was still fearless and said with a smile, 'You don't dare.' The slave asked why. He said, I've already figured it out but you didn't dare. When the slave asked why again, he suddenly said, 'Your eyes tell me , you and the wet nurse are the same people. You are charitable in your heart and will not let me be in a dangerous situation.'"

"Sigh... In short, His Royal Highness Prince Rui is a lonely person. When he was a prince, he lived a cautious and unhappy life. Therefore, his temperament has always been very stubborn and eccentric. Everyone in the palace despised his origin, but they also treated him with contempt. There is inexplicable fear. Because he will always do something unexpected regardless of the consequences."

Nie Wushuang listened silently, and Xiao Fengqing's charming eyes suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. He sighed deeply and stopped talking.

In the middle of the night, Nie Wushuang was thinking that the palace banquet was in full swing, so he was led by Yang Zhi to the Buddhist hall at the back of the "Yonghe Palace". The palace lanterns dimly illuminate the road ahead, and listening to the huge fireworks coming from the "Yong'an Gate" in the night feels like a world away. Huge fireworks rose in the sky and turned into countless beautiful fireworks. Nie Wushuang couldn't help but stop and watch for a while, then turned around silently.

In the silent Buddhist hall, the eternal lamp is lit. The palace guards guarding the Buddhist hall had already gone out to watch the excitement, and it was completely deserted. The lacquered gold Avalokitesvara sits on a lotus seat with its eyes downcast, and has kind eyes, as if it has already seen through everything in the world.

Nie Wushuang knelt down, opened the Buddhist scriptures and began to read slowly. Yang Zhi stood guard outside the Buddhist hall to prevent irrelevant people from passing by.

Nie Wushuang was reciting Buddhist scriptures and heard even more noises. I don’t know how long it took, but soft footsteps came from outside the Buddhist hall. Nie Wushuang closed her eyes, and the familiar fragrance of Du Ruo came from behind, and a pair of clean hands were already pressing on her shoulders.

"Your Highness is here." Nie Wushuang turned around and met Xiao Fengqing's smiling eyes. His evil face was flushed, and he smelled strongly of alcohol. He must have just had a banquet.

Xiao Fengqing sat on the futon nearby and just looked at her with a smile. Under the ever-burning lamp, his strange-colored eyes were slightly warm: "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Nie Wushuang looked away and said calmly: "It won't be long. Please tell me what the prince has to say."

Xiao Fengqing suddenly chuckled: "If I have nothing to do, can't I come see you?" His fingers brushed her cheek, bringing with her the familiar masculine scent. Nie Wushuang was frightened in her heart, and couldn't help but avoid it, saying coldly: "Is it possible? The prince came here tonight just because he wanted to see Wushuang? Instead of warning Wushuang that he should not forget the agreement between you and me? "

Xiao Fengqing's hand was empty, and he slowly put away the smile on his face: "Yang Zhi just told me that you deliberately angered Concubine Yun because of ulterior motives. But maybe you can use the power of the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother doesn't like Concubine Yun either. With help It is also a way for people with more power than you to suppress your enemies. Otherwise, if Concubine Yun really gives birth to a prince, you may never get ahead."

Nie Wushuang asked, "Did His Highness change his mind and want to use the power of the Queen Mother?" From the beginning, Xiao Fengqing had no intention of colluding with Queen Mother Gao because Queen Mother Gao didn't like him. If she was right, what Xiao Fengqing is doing now Everything is to weaken the power of Empress Dowager Gao and gain Xiao Fengming's trust. And now he actually wants her to conspire with Empress Dowager Gao to get rid of Concubine Yun?

"In the face of interests, there are no permanent enemies and no permanent friends. Empress Dowager Gao is now severely weakened in the court. She will definitely not sit back and watch Concubine Yun give birth to a prince, giving the Qingliu faction the capital to challenge. So maybe at this time You are her best candidate." Xiao Fengqing said slowly.

Nie Wushuang smiled and shook his head: "But what will the emperor think? I finally won the emperor's favor, do I have to give up like this? It's not like the prince doesn't know why Concubine Yun has favored Concubine Yun for three years. Because she is not smart enough or virtuous enough. , and she is not gentle and generous enough. Apart from her appearance, she was favored by the emperor only because she was too simple. Other concubines would not get rid of her so easily because she was too easy to get rid of. If she was rashly removed, the consequences would be It will earn the emperor’s wrath.”

She paused and said coldly: "What others don't want to do naturally has their own reasons. I won't take risks easily."

Xiao Fengqing looked at her with a deep look: "Are you really not worried?" Nowadays, the ruling and opposition harems are talking a lot about Concubine Yun's pregnancy, and they are excited and speculated. After all, if Concubine Yun gives birth to a prince, she might be the future heir apparent. a strong contender. No one wants such a strong opponent to appear.

Nie Wushuang looked at the Guanyin above and said calmly: "Of course I'm not worried. There are many people who are worried. Only by keeping calm and accumulating strength can you finally get everything you want. Your Majesty, you really don't have to worry about Wushuang."

Silence returned to the Buddhist hall. Nie Wushuang looked down at the Buddhist scriptures in front of him and broke the silence: "It's late at night, Your Highness should return home."

Xiao Fengqing remained silent. Suddenly, he took her hand and hurried away: "I'll take you to a place!"

Nie Wushuang was caught off guard and staggered by him: "What do you want, Your Highness?"

"Shhh-" He suddenly turned around and smiled at her, with a deep smile in his strange-colored eyes: "After all, the palace can't help but let me take you to a place!"

He took her out of the Buddhist hall and walked in a twists and turns towards a small road behind the Buddhist hall. Behind the Buddhist hall was a small mountain. The night was dark, and only the bright moonlight in the sky shone dimly on the foot of the temple. path. Both sides of the road are sparsely populated and lush with vegetation. But the path is still very neat. Nie Wushuang felt the hem of her skirt patting her ankles, and occasionally touching the grass and trees on the roadside.

Nie Wushuang suddenly felt in a trance. The road in front of him was winding forward in the dark night. He couldn't see the way or where he was ahead. The only thing in his hand was the warmth of his palm. He guided her and seemed to tell her that he was everything she could rely on.

"We're here!" Xiao Fengqing suddenly stopped. Nie Wushuang looked closely and saw a small pond in the clearing in the forest. The lotus flowers on the pond have long since stopped blooming, and when soaked by the moonlight, there is a vague aura of decadence.

"What place is this?" Nie Wushuang stepped back warily: "Why did the prince bring Wushuang here?"

Xiao Fengqing didn't notice her fear, and said with a smile: "I'll show you something good." He took out the fire folds from his arms, and the fire started to shine, and Nie Wushuang saw several bamboo tubes with different smiles lying flat on the ground. thing.

"This is..." She was confused.

"This is a fireworks tube!" Xiao Fengqing's charming eyebrows were filled with rare excitement: "It's better to watch people setting off fireworks on the city tower than to set off fireworks yourself! I haven't set off fireworks for several years!"

He said, squatting down and about to light the fire letter. Nie Wushuang was shocked, and quickly rushed over and stamped out the fire in his hand: "Your Highness is crazy, someone will find out!"

Xiao Fengqing laughed loudly, rolled up her long-sleeved robe, and shook her handbag: "No! You are usually cruel and ruthless, but now you are so timid! I have already passed it by here, and no one has noticed! Besides, those palace guards on night watch have already been lazy and gone to have a drink, so it’s okay!”

When he was talking about the key points, Nie Wushuang turned pale and held his hand tightly: "You will be discovered!"

"No! Look at it!" Xiao Fengqing made a wrong step, bypassed her, and lit the fire letters one by one. \u003c

/p\u003e

"Peng!——" With a sound, a gorgeous firework flew into the sky and then exploded. The beauty of the moment illuminated the entire night sky, and Nie Wushuang forgot everything for a moment, only staring at the sudden beauty.

"Peng!——" Another voice, and another one, colorful, like the most beautiful stars in the night. One after another, it’s dizzying.

"Does it look good?" His voice came to my ears.

Nie Wushuang nodded stupidly. When she came to her senses, she saw that Xiao Fengqing looked like a child looking forward to a reward. Nie Wushuang suddenly turned cold and said: "It doesn't look good! It doesn't look good at all! The prince risked being discovered. It's so stupid to play such a childish trick! It's so stupid!"

She pulled up the hem of her skirt and turned around angrily: "Your Highness is crazy, Wushuang doesn't want to follow you crazy!"

****

Woo hoo... The ice blue dog was bleeding. Alas, my poor little Qingqing... in fact, she just wants to be childlike and please the beauty...

Rolling for monthly tickets! If you don’t give it, you won’t get up…
