Family Has a Concubine

After King Liang got into the carriage, the young servant's face was pale, but he saw that it was silent inside and there was no movement.

Suddenly, I saw two carriages approaching not far away, one in front and the other in the back. It looked like they were out for an outing.

They stopped here like this, it's really out of place, they are afraid that someone will come to ask, and it will be bad if people see their master with Liang Wang.

The young man immediately jumped onto the shaft of the carriage, lightly whipped his whip, and let the horse slowly move forward on the path.

The carriage staggered along the path in the outskirts of Beijing, with long and yellow weeds on both sides, a fiery red maple tree in the distance, and the sky was high and far away, so clear and clear that it seemed to be able to cleanse people's hearts.

The atmosphere in the carriage was particularly dull, and Lin Guogong's elegant face was cold.

Looking up, I saw that Liang Wang was also silent, his charming eyes were lowered, his long eyelashes cast a faint shadow on the eyes, and his red lips were slightly raised.

His gorgeous deep purple python robe is actually surrounded by a bunch of wild flowers, red, yellow, blue... There are all kinds of colors in a mess, they are the common wild flowers on the roadside, there is really no sense of beauty Word.

"Duke, do you still remember the woman that the king asked you to come to find you at the beginning of the year?" Liang Wang's faint voice rang out casually, but with his slender hands, he picked up the wild flowers on the hem of his clothes and planted them one by one. around together.

Hearing this, Lin Guogong's face darkened, and he sneered: "Later, the Duke of the country inquired about the wife of Chu Yunpan, the concubine of the Chu family. I thought that she was just an unknown person, but now she is the upstart of the court who saved Daqi. The great hero has cultivated a decent person! But this is not enough."

Liang Wang snorted and sneered: "Have you seen Chu San?"

Lin Guogong snorted coldly: "Why does my countryman want to see you?"

The Lin family is the family of the emperor's teacher, the current emperor is Zheng Xuanshi, and his deceased father was the emperor's teacher of Zhengxuan emperor.

And he will be the emperor's teacher of the future emperor in the future, so he only pledges allegiance to the future emperor and does not usually go to court. These years, he has been a bit of an idler, not participating in the banquets in the palace or the contacts between the aristocratic families, usually his son Lin Mojin and other brothers go out. So he has never met the young Lord Hou who took Yingcheng back at a young age.

"That's free, the Duke should go and see it." Liang Wang chuckled, but didn't look up, his eyes were lowered, and the wild flowers in his hand turned into a simple garland.

"Hmph! My Duke is not interested at all." Lin Guogong sneered. "Oh... what are you doing?"

Lin Guogong screamed angrily, but saw the wreath in Liang Wang's hand was placed on Lin Guogong's head.

"You bastard—" Lin Guogong was furious, shouted, and with a wave of his hand, he knocked the wreath on his head to the ground. "Put this dirty thing on my head."

Liang Wang smiled faintly: "When I was in Tongzhou, my sister didn't have any jewelry, so I could only wear this kind of thing."

Lin Guogong was stunned, looking at the wild wreath on the carriage that was knocked to the ground by himself, and fell apart, he was a little stunned.

Yunxia loves beauty, and the clothes she wears on her head and body are all exquisite and expensive, but in Tongzhou, she doesn't even have a decent piece of jewelry.

Thinking about it, Lin Guogong felt uncomfortable in his heart, but immediately, his elegant face was hardened, and he said coldly: "What nonsense, how old were you at that time, how much do you remember?"

King Liang glanced at him with a half-smile, "I told you that you might not believe it, but the memory of the two-year-old is still clearly printed here." As he spoke, he nodded his head with his slender fingers.

As long as he can remember, he has lived in a small garden.

The small garden is very simple, there are only three thatched huts, and he can't go out of this small garden at ordinary times. In his vague memory, only his sister Yunxia is with him.

For Empress Xiao, he still has some memories. He got mad and was crazy all day long. He almost strangled him several times. Finally, when he was three years old, Empress Xiao died, and his sister dug a hole in the garden to bury her. up.

After burying Queen Xiao, Yunxia sat on the big bluestone at the door, put him on her lap, hugged him and said, "Do you know why Queen Mother is crazy?"

He shook his head.

"Then let me tell you." Yunxia said, "Because the dishes that are delivered every day are not clean, she knows she has been drugged, but she still has to eat, because the three of us can't all be well. In the end, she went crazy and died. , so we can eat well and grow up well.”

At that time, he didn't understand what that meant, but he only remembered that in order for them to eat well, the empress mother knew that there was madness in the dish, but she still wanted to eat it.

Later, when I was a few years older, I realized that it was because the mother's accident would be reported back to the palace. If even their siblings died here by then, it would be too coincidental, and the emperor would still be angry.

The life of the siblings in Tongzhou is extremely boring and monotonous, and there is usually nothing for entertainment.

Fortunately, there was a wild flower growing in the garden, so she often picked it and weaved it into a garland to wear on her head, and then looked at him with a smile: "Zhenger, is this pretty?"

"All right."

Every time he gave a ignorant compliment, she would burst into laughter, and then smiled and fiddled with the dim bronze mirror for a long time, "Maybe he saw it... and thought it looks good?"

The thirteen or fourteen-year-old cardamom girl is just the age for beauty and love, but the only things she can wear are these worthless wild flowers.

Apart from plucking flowers, she also played music. She was young at the time, so she didn't know if she could play the song well, but it was sweet and moving. She played the song "Qiao Ling Thirteen Tune" softly and lingeringly.

This is a piece she composed in her spare time, saying: "This is a piece composed for my mother."

The tune changes thirteen times in a row, from high to low, and then from low to high. The last tune is even more mournful and withered, and the spectrum is full of Empress Xiao's desolate life.

When he was four years old, there would often be an old woman who was dressed up richly and noblely walking into the garden, pulling Yunxia aside and saying, "Princess, why do you demean yourself here? The emperor sent me beauty Xiao, who has no feelings for the little prince. But it’s different for you. You are the eldest daughter of the emperor, who grew up lovingly like a jewel, but now... Even if the emperor wants to take you back, he can’t, because there is no reason to only take you, and take the little one. The prince stays here, if there is no little prince, the princess can go back immediately."

On Yunxia's pale face because of poor food, a faint smile flashed across her face: "Mammy let me go, I think I'm a maidservant of a princess, and I can't enjoy the fine clothes and fine food in the palace, and the fire cooking oil. Mammy Gao Good luck, after leaving the queen mother, she was immediately taken under the command of Empress Zheng, thinking about it, the nanny is destined to be the life of the gold slave and the silver servant."

Nanny Gao's old face turned green and pale, and she became angry from embarrassment: "What did the princess say? This old slave is for you, the princess. If even the servants and servants come here... then there will be no one in the palace who can speak to the princess."

"Oh, I blamed you wrong." A sentence as light as water.

Nanny Gao was even more ashamed and annoyed, but soon calmed down again, and said coldly: "Princess, do you know? The Duke's Mansion asked the emperor and said that the princess was traveling far away and could not get married. The emperor agreed to let the Lin family retire." .Now the Lin family is looking after Lin Shizi...Princess, if you don't go back, Lin Shizi will marry someone else. Maybe it will be Miss Liao Er or Miss Zheng Si. Oh, I don't know. Who is it, anyway, when the old slave came out, he heard that Mrs. Guogong was interested in Miss Liao Er. Princess, if you go back, then Shizi Lin will still marry you."

After finishing speaking, he shook the handkerchief in his hand, turned around and walked out.

After walking two steps, he saw him, who was only four years old, sitting dryly on a rock, staring at them nervously.

When Gao Momo looked at it, she groaned: "This is the little prince? He really looks like a fairy boy... Tsk tsk, what a pity. Little prince, you really... shouldn't exist!" While talking, already left.

He was only four years old at that time, but perhaps because of a person's instinctive sense of crisis, he actually understood their conversation. This richly dressed old woman actually instigated her sister to harm him in exchange for a chance to return to the palace.

He was so frightened that his mouth was flattened, and tears fell down.

"Oh, little cat, why are you crying?" She giggled and hugged him, and smacked his forehead, "Come on, my sister will play the piano for you."

As he spoke, he put him on his lap as always, and then began to play the piano.

On this day, however, he heard that the song "Qiao Ling Thirteen Tune" had changed, and finally had a truly sad taste, which belonged only to her.

Gentle like soft tenderness, passionate like a girl's lively joy, with a tune, from up to down, all the prosperity is gone.

For three or four years, the love was endless, and she waited and waited, but what she waited for was not his helping hand, but abandoning her completely.
