Adore Trick of Beauty

Chapter 66: End of Spring

For Xiao Fengqing, except for the added reputation of his incompetent "good name", there is no loss at all. The so-called wearing mourning for a month is even more free for him. He spends his days in the palace, admiring flowers or beauties, living a carefree life.

It's just that he has rarely come to "Tingfeng Pavilion", and seems to have forgotten it.

This day, as soon as Nie Wushuang got up, Xia Lan came over mysteriously: "Girl, this servant wants to tell you a piece of news."

Nie Wushuang pursed his lips and smiled: "What is so mysterious?"

"Last night, the prince named Mrs. Zou as his side concubine, and asked her to take charge of the affairs of the palace. Isn't that a big deal?" Xia Lan's eyes widened.

"Well, what then?" Nie Wushuang responded casually, getting up early and lazily, in the bronze mirror, her beautiful eyes were misty, and her palm-sized face was blush from sleep, making her more beautiful and heart-stirring.

She was wearing a long snow-colored silk nightgown, which covered her exquisite figure, and the faint bumps were even more alluring.

Xia Lan stepped forward to comb her long hair, and continued: "Isn't Mrs. Zou on good terms with the girl? Now no one in the palace dares to bully the girl!"

Looking at Xia Lan's excited face, Nie Wushuang secretly sighed a silly girl, but couldn't bear to break her good hopes, so he only agreed a few times.

Just after breakfast, people from the "Wenxiang Pavilion" heard that Concubine Zou was coming to visit her. Nie Wushuang smiled slightly, and tipped the girl who came to pass the message.

An hour later, Zou Nongfang came over. Times are different from the past, I don't know if she has been favored by Xiao Fengqing in recent days, or because she is in high spirits on happy occasions, her not-so-beautiful face is a little more charming after careful grooming.

Nie Wushuang greeted her with a smile: "Is the side concubine okay?" Zou Nongfang supported her, and said with a smile: "Sister Nie, don't be too polite, what you do on weekdays is still how you are now. Feng"

Nie Wushuang accepted it with a smile, and looked at the battle behind her, two old nuns, four handsome girls, it was clear that she was the new mistress of the palace.

"The concubine's words are serious. Now it's different from the past. It's not easy to overdo it." Nie Wushuang said with a smile.

The two sat down, and in the hallway of "Tingfeng Pavilion", the morning wind rustled like the sound of heaven. When Zou Nongfang came, he brought a lot of gifts, including blood swallows, century-old ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum... and various silks and satins that are popular among the famous ladies and ladies in the capital nowadays.

Nie Wushuang looked at them one by one, but his expression was only indifferent.

"The side concubine is really expensive, and Wushuang's illness has been cured in sevens and eighties, how dare I accept your big gift?" Nie Wushuang laughed.

Zou Nongfang took a sip of tea, hesitation flashed across his eyes, and he found an excuse to push back the servants. Knowing that she had something to say, Nie Wushuang made Xia Lan wait.

After all the servants retreated, Zou Nongfang said, "It's not that my sister is sorry for Sister Nie, it's really the prince's intention, he..."

She hesitated. Nie Wushuang frowned slightly: "What's the matter, my lord?"

Zou Nongfang sighed, and said helplessly, "My lord said that I want sister Nie to move out of the palace. My sister has been persuading me all night, but my lord has made up my mind. It's really..."

There was deep apology in her eyes, and she was in a dilemma. Nie Wushuang looked at her carefully, and then smiled lightly: "I don't blame Sister Zou, where does the prince want Wushuang to move?"

Seeing that she was not angry, Zou Nongfang opened his eyes wide in surprise: "My lord said that sister Nie should be moved to another courtyard. It is only twenty miles away from the capital, and you can go back and forth in one day."

After she finished speaking, she was afraid that Nie Wushuang would be angry, so she hurriedly said: "If sister Nie doesn't like it, sister will definitely beg again in front of the prince, and she will definitely not let sister Nie move out of the palace like this!"

"No, everything is according to the prince's wishes." Nie Wushuang smiled and said: "Besides, I am not used to living in the prince's mansion."

Zou Nongfang thought that what she said was ironic, and hurriedly defended: "Is it because some servants in the palace have neglected Sister Nie, or is it because Sister Nie is angry with the prince, or my sister went to persuade..."

Nie Wushuang pressed her hand and smiled leisurely: "No, it's time to go. I hope sister Zou will take good care of the affairs in the palace from now on."

Zou Nongfang was full of doubts when he heard it, but he was relieved deep in his heart. She thought that she would encounter a big problem today, but she didn't expect everything to go so smoothly, she couldn't believe it.

Nie Wushuang's hand caressed the piece of smoky cyan gauze that she sent. The thin gauze was as thin as a cicada's wings, and it was indeed the best quality gauze. Zou Nongfang might not be able to afford such an expensive handwriting. The only possibility is him.

He had never given her anything, but now the first time he gave her love, he borrowed someone else's hand.

The blue color in front of her reminded her of the first time she saw him, wearing a blue satin robe, behind him was a rainy night like splashed ink, he smiled and stretched out his hand towards her, his smile was like a light moon in the water, hazy and beautiful.

He said, "Girl, don't be afraid..."

After all, this is the step to take.

...

"Sister Nie? Sister Nie?" Nie Wushuang recovered and saw Zou Nongfang looking at her worriedly.

"Sister Nie is sad?" Zou Nongfang asked tentatively. Nie Wushuang shook his head: "No, I just remembered some past events. Do you remember what I told you?"

"I remember." Zou Nongfang nodded. Nie Wushuang looked at her: "If you are willing to believe me, the prosperity of your Zou family is just around the corner, if you don't believe it..."

"No, I believe it!" Zou Nongfang interrupted her with a determined look.

Nie Wushuang just smiled faintly: "Why do you trust me? If I were you, maybe I would trust the prince. Not an irrelevant woman. After all, women always rely on their husbands."

Zou Nongfang shook her cold hand: "Father told me that instead of believing in illusory love, it is better to believe in a relationship with interests involved, which is more unbreakable."

Nie Wushuang was silent for a while, then sighed: "Your Honor is a man with profound vision, no wonder he sent you to Prince Rui's Mansion."

Say goodbye to the two of you.

In the early morning of the second day, an unremarkable carriage drove away at the gate of Prince Rui's Mansion without a sound. No one knew who was in the carriage.

After living in the palace for more than four months, Nie Wushuang left as abruptly as when he came.

The wheels were rolling, and Nie Wushuang leaned on the cushion in the car, looking at the lush green eyes outside the curtain, it was already summer.

It went so fast. she thought in a daze.

"Girl, that Concubine Zou is not a good person!" Xia Lan waited a little far away from the palace, and then said bitterly: "She is afraid that the girl will be favored by the prince, so she is anxious to send the girl far away. of!"

Nie Wushuang smiled softly: "You really want me to be favored by the prince?"

Xia Lan was startled, then suddenly thought of Xiao Fengqing, and shivered: "It's not..."

"Since you don't want to, why don't you leave this position to her. Sometimes things are not what they seem on the surface." Nie Wushuang sighed: "It's just that I didn't expect her to be such a transparent person at a young age. She actually sees through love, if I had half of her clarity back then, I wouldn't..."

Her heart ached again, she covered her heart and let her thoughts spread.

Yes, if she was half-clear back then, she wouldn't be in this situation now...

There was a moment of silence in the carriage, and when Xia Lan looked again, Nie Wushuang had already fallen into a deep sleep. She carefully covered her with a thin quilt, only to find that the two tear stains on her face looked like...

After all, her heart is bitter... Xia Lan thought in a daze.

...

Xiao Fengqing's other courtyard is located in a valley less than 20 miles away from the capital, surrounded by birds singing and flowers fragrant, a large flat green grassland in front of the valley, and a small stream slowly passing through.

The world is full of fragrance in April, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple begin to bloom.

It is more refreshing in this mountain than outside the mountain, with all kinds of mountain flowers in full bloom. Xia Lan beamed with joy as soon as she got out of the car. She helped Nie Wushuang get out of the car and said with a smile: "This other courtyard is a good place to spend summer. If it is possible, I really hope it can Live for a year and a half."

Infected by her excitement, Nie Wushuang also smiled brightly.

There are not many servants in this huge courtyard, a few old maids and long-term laborers from nearby villages come here regularly every day to chop firewood and fetch water, it seems like a good place to hide from the world.

As soon as you enter the other courtyard, your eyes are really bright, and all you can see are rockery and pavilions, winding pavilions and corridors. Once you enter, you will feel like you are in a fairyland on earth.

Xia Lan was so happy that she looked left and right, like a butterfly wearing flowers.

Nie Wushuang chose a cool bamboo courtyard "Diancui Residence", surrounded by green bamboos, and at night, she might hear the rustling sound of the wind passing by the bamboo leaves. For some reason, she prefers to listen to the wind by the window more and more.

Xia Lan was dissatisfied: "Girl, now the prince of this other courtyard has let you live alone, why don't you choose the biggest and best courtyard?"

"No, it's fine here." Nie Wushuang smiled slightly without explaining.

Seeing that she was determined, Xia Lan could only order the servants to move the cage in. Fortunately, the bamboo garden was still clean because someone cleaned it every day. The maid tidied it up for a long time, and finally put the boxes and cages back together.

Xia Lan's excitement dissipated at night, and at night, the whole courtyard seemed to darken suddenly, the cold wind in the mountains whizzed by, and the bamboos in "Diancuiju" were blown loudly, like a hundred ghosts crying at night. .

Nie Wushuang got up early and was tired, so he rested after dinner.

In the middle of the night, she suddenly woke up and saw a black shadow shaking outside the curtain.

"Who?!" She was startled and covered in cold sweat, her hands had already grasped the porcelain pillow: "Are you a human or a ghost?"

The wind blew through the curtain, and the man's shadow was faintly visible, but Xia Lan's crying voice came: "Girl, this servant can't sleep, it's so scary!"

It turned out to be a false alarm!

Nie Wushuang lay back on the bed and sighed, "Come in."

Xia Lan hugged a quilt, and stood outside timidly: "Girl, this servant will make a bed next to your bed, otherwise it would be too scary to be outside."

At this moment, the sound of the wind rose again, shaking rustlingly, and the bamboo branches fluttering on the window lattice were like ghost claws. Seeing her panicked, Nie Wushuang smiled and said, "Sleep with me."

Xia Lan was still hesitating, after all, she didn't dare to sleep alone, so she hurriedly squeezed together with Nie Wushuang.

The two master and servant huddled together on the bed, crowded and warm, but Nie Wushuang did not feel sleepy. Looking at Xia Lan's pink and childish face, she suddenly asked, "How old are you this year?"

"The maidservant is thirteen." Xia Lan replied, she was a child after all, she was very happy to chat with Nie Wushuang, and then asked curiously: "Young lady, this year?"

Nie Wushuang was startled, and after a long time said, "I, I'm already eighteen." She married Gu Qinghong at the age of fifteen, and was dismissed three years later...

It turns out that I am only twenty-nine years old, but why do I feel that I have passed such a long life, and I am almost tired of such a long and painful time.

Xia Lan didn't know what she was thinking, and praised her with a smile.

Said: "The girl still looks like fifteen or sixteen, so beautiful."

Nie Wushuang smiled slightly.

Xia Lan thought she didn't believe it, so she quickly swore and swore: "Really, I have never seen a woman as beautiful as a girl. The prince brought so many women to the mansion, and none of them are as beautiful as a girl's finger."

Nie Wushuang looked at her envious eyes shining in the dark, and comforted her with a smile: "Go to sleep. I won't be able to wake up tomorrow."

"What are you afraid of? There's nothing to control here. I used to think it was bad for Concubine Zou to drive the girl out, but now it seems that there's nothing wrong with it except that it's a bit deserted here."

"I really wish I could live here for the rest of my life, just with the girl and the servants, without paying attention to those idiots in the palace..."

Xia Lan said innocently.

Nie Wushuang listened quietly.

"Girl, you are really a good person."

Good man... Nie Wushuang was taken aback, as if these two words would never have anything to do with her. If she was a good person, wouldn't there be no bad women in this world anymore?

She smiled wryly, and looked back, Xia Lan had already fallen into a deep sleep. She looked out the window, it seemed that the darkness of Yong Ye had just begun...
