Chapter 13 Sue's Curtain-It's Jade People's Pity for Snow Lotus Roots

Chapter 13 Pianyuren pity Xuelian root

Text/Mu Liangqing

A month after Xue Shuxin got married, Duan still stayed in Fan's capital, secretly shuttling between Fan's various power camps.

Chen Duan Obsidian believes that all parties want to use his power, and several parties will not move easily. His security needs the strength of these parties.

Today, Yao is invited to gather in Chunhui outside the city, and the Prime Minister Fan has already been waiting here.

As soon as Duan entered the door, he smiled and said, "I have long heard that the Shangguan Prime Minister is knowledgeable. Today, he really looks like a heaven and man. Nice to meet you. "

"Among them, Wei Liu has made outstanding contributions, which is even more indispensable." Shangguan Yi made a rare gesture of inferiority and said with a smile: "It's a blessing that my husband condescended to come to my humble abode! Come, your majesty, please sit down. "

Chen Duan Yao sat down and continued to compliment Shangguan Yi: "Shangguan's kind invitation is to give Chen Yao face. If you don't come, isn't it that Chen Yao is not available? It's just that I've been in Fan Yuan for more than a month, and the Prime Minister is willing to meet me today, which shows that the Prime Minister is busy. "

"Excuse me, Your Majesty, I was negligent." While speaking, Shangguan Yi personally poured tea for Duan and said slowly, "I wonder if your majesty is satisfied with a little prince?"

Chen Duan obsidian only smiled and said nothing.

Seeing Chen Duan's silence, Shangguan Yi continued: "I don't want to beat around the bush with the prince. I think the report has come, and I naturally understand my intention. I hope the prince can help the great cause of the old lady. "

Duan corners of the mouth hung with a smile, but his eyes were cold. He said, "The fact that my eldest brother is a prince will never change. What Chen has planned is just how to help big brother, protect the territory, and make the country safe and secure the people. "

Sensing Chen Duan's displeasure, Shangguan Yi changed her tune: "It was the old lady's slip of the tongue. She promised that if something important could be reached in the future, she would definitely sign a long-term armistice agreement with your country and present it to five counties in the border town to ensure the peace of the people on the border between the two countries."

With a chuckle, Duan said, "Shangguan Prime Minister doesn't need to speak so full. If there is anything Chen can do to help adults, just do his best. "

Hearing this, Shangguan Yi knew Duan was not so easy to promise him. He just said, "The old lady thanked the prince first."

Two people drank half a cup of tea while meditating. "In that case, Yao Chen will leave first, and the Shangguan Prime Minister will please stay." Chen Duan obsidian got up to go.

Shangguan Yi got up and said, "Cui Rong, send it to your majesty."

"Stay."

"My Lord, Chen Duan seems unwilling to cooperate with us." Be kind to Chen Duan obsidian and leave, and hurriedly said.

"Not unwilling, but cautious. After coming to Beijing for a month, he also got to know many people one after another. It is unwise to put the eggs in the same basket rashly when he is still vacillating and unable to judge. He may want to wait and see. " Shangguan Yi explained.

"That's ... if he finally chooses to cooperate with Xiao Shenghan, won't we be in danger?" Shangguan Mo Yun flashed cold light and said, "Do you want us to strike first? Since he refused, we can't keep him for others. "

Shangguan Yi shook his head and said, "Don't make a move. Just send a few people to stare at him secretly and see what he does before making a decision. "

Those who wax were sacrificed at the end of the year.

The twelfth lunar month has entered. No matter the royal family, dignitaries or ordinary people, they are busy worshipping God and ancestors, praying for a long life and avoiding disasters. The twelfth lunar month, the new and old handover. Since drinking Laba porridge, I have to get busy, clean the house, invite incense, offer sacrifices to the stove, write Spring Festival couplets and run for new year's goods.

Inside and outside the Prime Minister's House, Qing Er and his second sister-in-law went shopping, while Jia Qing stayed at Rongqingyuan to help the servants do odd jobs.

Ting Anne stood on the ladder and hung a red lantern. When she saw Qing Er skipping back to Rong Qing Garden, she shouted, "Qing Er, New Year's Eve is in January. What do you think? "

Qing Er looked up and saw that it was Ting Anne. She stopped thinking and said, "Ideas? Hmm ... I hope it snows on New Year's Eve! "

Ting Anne continued to hang lanterns and casually said, "This is a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is not easy to snow."

Qing Er found a place to sit down and continued: "I know, but this is my little wish!" " "

When the lantern was hung, Ting Anne came down from the ladder and sat next to Qing Er. She said, "Well, if it snows, will you accompany me to the top of the mountain to watch the sunrise?"

Going to the mountain, will it be cold? Qing Er thought about it, but agreed: "Well, anyway, Shangguan Yi will go to the palace for dinner and he will come back with a favorite concubine;" Mother has been in poor health since winter, so she must go to bed early. Second brother will keep vigil with second sister-in-law; Not to mention Muliang and Brother Xue, the young couple just got married and can't wait to stick together. I am lonely and have nothing to do, so I will stay with you. "

Ting Anne looked her in the eye with a smile and said, "Well, it's a deal."

After consulting with Shangguan Yi for half a month, Chen Duan finally waited for Xiao Shenghan's secret letter and kept the appointment late at night.

When Duan arrived, Xiao Shenghan hadn't arrived yet, and Duan was in no hurry. He stood outside the yard, looking at the moon. He was far away from the court when he suddenly heard the noise. He immediately became alert, looked around and shouted, "Who, come out!" "

Xiao Shenghan came from the dark and praised: "Your Majesty is really talented."

Chen Duan-Yao is not modest. He nodded and replied, "That's natural."

Seeing that he was so arrogant, Duan was furious and said, "How dare you not bow to the emperor?"

Duan laughed without anger and asked, "First, the first emperor wanted to meet the first king. Our king is honored to meet us. Second, the king is not from your country, but the emperor is from your country. What does it have to do with the king? Third, this is a personal opinion. We are friends of the same age, drinking and having fun, not involving the court. Why do you have to stick to the ceremony? When it comes to ceremonies, our king is two years older than your emperor, and his brother is before his brother. Shouldn't we salute? "

Xiao Shenghan led the people into the room. "Since the report is an equal friend, just casually. This is a unique tribute tea in Jiangnan, China. Your majesty has come a long way, tired and thirsty. Please use it. "

Duan always likes to cut to the chase: "Cut to the chase, what do you want this king to do?"

Xiao Shenghan didn't expect Duan to run away from him as soon as he started, but he came prepared after all and replied, "Mind your own business."

"Stay out of it?" Chen Duan obsidian raised his head, and for the first time he began to look at the man carefully.

"Yes, please don't get involved in my competition with the Prime Minister." Xiao Shenghan spoke out his requirements directly.

Chen Duan Yao Feng's eyes narrowed slightly and said, "What can you promise this king?"

Xiao Shenghan said with a wry smile, "I can't promise anything now, only that you can keep Fan alive."

"Ha, that's interesting. Since the king dared to come, he didn't take your so-called assassination seriously at all. " Chen Duan obsidian said very bossy, but added, "but you did make a deal with the king. But don't you want to know what attractive conditions the Prime Minister has offered? "

Xiao Shenghan said confidently: "If Wang Ye is willing to cooperate with Shangguan Yi, he will not agree to see me."

"So ten thousand kings want to shop around?" Chen Duan Obsidian doesn't buy it.

Xiao Shenghan was silent. Indeed, he is not sure whether Duan will stay out of it. After all, cooperation with Shangguan Yi is more profitable and profitable. Chen Duan's words are so powerful that every fist he has carefully prepared these days seems to hit cotton, soft and powerless. Alas, this man is really as shrewd as he is rumored to be, and should not be underestimated.

Duan knows what he is doing. He stood up and said, "All right, let's go." Two people to Xiao Shenghan a slight nod, and roared off.

Xiang Yan said angrily: "Your Majesty, this period of Yao Chen is too arrogant!"

Xiao Shenghan remained silent, watching them leave.

After leaving with Duan, Jia Yuan asked Duan his doubts: "Why does your master treat Shangguan Yi and Xiao Shenghan so differently? No ... does your master have a choice? "

Yao shook his head and explained, "No, it just varies from person to person. If my attitude towards them is contrary to what it is now, then according to their personality, they will definitely doubt me and our situation will be dangerous. "

"I see, then who are we helping?" I asked in a low voice

Duan only said to him, "It's too early to say who to help. We may wish to wait and see. "

On the top of the mountain on New Year's Eve, there is no darkness. Against the background of snow, there is blue in the white crystal, and the quiet winter snow is falling silently without a trace of wind.

"It hasn't snowed so heavily here for decades. I didn't expect it to snow so heavily tonight, so it's difficult to walk up the mountain. Come, give me your hand. " Ting Anne held out his hand to Qing Er. "One more step, and you can reach the top. Come on! "

"Ha, finally came up! It's snowing, it's snowing, haha, so happy! " Qing Er danced excitedly and rubbed snowballs at Ting Anne, being as naughty as a child.

Reluctantly, Ting Anne patted off the snow, found a big stone to shelter from the wind, swept the snow on the floor with branches, laid a mat for Qing Er, and sat down directly on the ground.

"Your home is not like this? Didn't you just arrive in Beijing? How do you know it hasn't snowed so heavily here for several years? " Qing son sitting beside Ting Anne, asked.

Ting Anne was shocked, but she accidentally let it slip. She quickly explained, "Ah ... because, although she is not in Beijing, her family has relatives who work in Beijing and heard about it when talking with their elders."

Qing Er cocked his head and looked at Ting Anne. She asked, "Why don't you go home for the New Year like this? Won't the family worry? "

"Worried?" Ting Anne gave a wry smile. He has no family to worry about him. He said, "Will Shangguan Yi be worried about you if you don't go home tonight?"

"But there is a mother and a second brother. They let me know that there is a warm corner in the cold room, where there is a home and people who love me. Do you know that this year, I am so happy, and I have never been so calm and at ease. " Qing Er looks very happy. Suddenly, she pulled Ting Anne and whispered, "Thank you, Ting Anne." Then he shouted at the valley: "Thank you, Mom, Thank you, Second Brother, Thank you, Mu Liang, Thank you, Brother Xue." Your son feels cool, and all the frustration and boredom are shouted out. She only felt indescribable smoothness from head to toe and laughed heartily. A year finally passed, and she had to go crazy once.

"Qing Er, I ..." It's not worth it. Ting Anne turned around and lay down on the big block stone, whispering softly, as if to himself, "Maybe, when Conan dreams, you never want to see me again."

"You may not know what I experienced in my last life, so you don't understand my treasure of the present." Qing Er also leaned against the stone with him. Although she is wearing a fox fur coat, she can still feel that the shelter stone is slightly cold. She put away her coat and continued, "Yes, I'm scared, too. I am afraid that one day I will wake up and find that everything is just a dream of Conan. So, I will try to keep this beautiful. Hold on to mom, hold on to second brother, hold on to the wooden beam ... "Qing Er turned his head and stared at Ting Anne, saying," Hold on to you! "

Two people sitting side by side in the long snow, your son's eyebrow eye is clear, beautiful and moving, and his eyes are full of friendship and sincerity, but at the moment, Ting Anne suddenly felt weak, afraid to look directly into your son's eyes, Mumu turned his head and closed his eyes wearily.

"Thousands of miles are frozen, and Wan Li snows ..." Looking at the surrounding snow, Qing Er remembered the text at school and remembered it clearly.

"Bang …" In an instant, a flashy flower bloomed in the night sky, dazzling and gorgeous. In a flash, the glory conquered the whole night sky.

"Ting Anne, look, it's fireworks in the city!" Qing Er shook Ting Anne excitedly. It's been a long time since she watched fireworks when it snowed. "It's a new year and a new beginning."

Ting Anne opened his eyes. He never disdained such fleeting things, but now she was beside him. He also felt that the fireworks were swaying in the dark, as beautiful as an illusion.

"What a beautiful fireworks, what a big snow! Xue Ruizhao has a good year, and we will all be very happy in the new year! " Qing Er leaned against Ting Anne and whispered. Ting Anne reached out and stroked Qing Er's hand slowly. Ting Anne looked at Qing Er sideways, while Qing Er smiled and quietly enjoyed the fireworks. Ting Anne also turned to look at the fireworks, fingers locked.

Both of them stopped talking and looked at the sky.

I don't know how long it took, but Ting Anne felt her shoulders sink. Originally, Qing Er was sleepy and fell asleep.

Ting Anne looked at the sleeping Qing Er, with a smile on her lips. He is alone, and Qing Er is also a cold-hearted man. In his view, their closeness is inevitable. Just like now, two cold people must keep warm with each other if they want to survive.

It snowed all night, and the top of the mountain was filled with water mist in the morning. Thick clouds covered the charming face of the rising sun.

"Qing Er, get up, it's dawn!" Ting Anne gently shook Qing Er.

Qing Er rubbed his sleepy eyes, and later realized that she had been held by Ting Anne all night, and her face turned red. She quickly pushed Ting Anne away and stood up, but she left her warm arms. The cold wind roared in the morning after the snow, and Qing Er couldn't help shivering. "Hachoo!"

Ting Anne stood up, patted off the snow for your son, closed the fox fur coat for her, and then took off her cloak and put it over your son. She said, "put on my cloak first, and don't catch cold." It's getting late, let's go down the mountain. "

Qing Er looked at her like a steamed stuffed bun and couldn't help laughing. She quickly said, "But if you wrap me up like this, I can't leave."

Ting Anne doesn't care. She took Qing Er's hand by herself and said with a smile, "It's all right. I will hold you. Anyway, there is no hurry. Let's take our time. "

Perhaps Ting Anne was right, or perhaps Ting Anne's rare smile was too warm. Qing Er did not refute it, but obediently asked Ting Anne to wrap it into a steamed bun and lead it down the mountain.

In the new year, auspicious symbols are full of joy inside and outside, and people come and go in an endless stream in the morning and evening. Your son hasn't been idle since the vigil at the top of the mountain. After all, when he appeared at the palace banquet, he naturally became a daughter-in-law candidate for a lady in Beijing. He is often dragged by Jin Ying and Pei Rong to play with the famous ladies in Beijing.

"A-choo! Cough, cough ... "On New Year's Eve, Sunny caught cold at the top of the mountain. She sneezes and coughs from time to time these days.

Dizzy and a little bloated, Qing Er shook his head and said to himself, "It's all right. When I used to go to work, I didn't take medicine for seven days and just took medicine 1 week. " This little cold will definitely pass! "

Qing Er felt unwell after coming out in the morning and broke up with those famous ladies early. At the moment, she is walking towards Xiang Fu alone.

"Oh, my head is so heavy." Qing Er mumbled weakly, raised his hand and pressed his temple, then said to himself, "We have to ask Zhui Er to get some medicine when we go back. Huh? How did it turn? "

Your son looked up at the sky. It was getting dark? Sunny was wondering when a burst of dizziness came and darkness flooded. Sunny only felt that the world was spinning, and the street selling sound in her ear became weaker and weaker, so she lost consciousness and fainted to the ground.

After two months in Fan, Chen Duan Obsidian decided to explain today and leave for home early tomorrow morning.

At noon, he and Jia Yuan returned to Yuefu Inn and had lunch in their room.

Suddenly, Chen Duan Obsidian saw a familiar figure, and his eyes followed him unconsciously.

Eating and eating, Jia Yuan found that the host had stopped chopsticks at some unknown time, with a smile on his mouth and staring out of the window.

What can make a master like this? Deeply curious, I followed my eyes.

Unexpectedly, Chen Duan Obsidian suddenly got up and rushed downstairs.

"Master?" I was not sure, so I followed him downstairs.

When Chen Duan Obsidian rushed downstairs, there were many people around your son.

"Get out of the way! Excuse me! " Duan squeezed into the crowd eagerly. "Your son, your son!"

Your son's face is very red. Chen Duan Obsidian tried the temperature of his hand. It's very hot! The feeling be nasty under, I directly picked up Qing Er fainted to the ground and ran to the room upstairs in the inn.

"Master ... Master?" Leaving Jia far away in the same place, messy.

Later, Yuefu Inn.

After the doctor's treatment, Duan greeted him and asked nervously, "Doctor, how is she?"

"Childe don't have to worry too much, the girl just caught a cold, plus too tired in recent days, which led to fatigue and fainting. I'll prescribe some medicine for reducing the fever first, and then prescribe a nourishing prescription, and I'll be fully recovered in a few days. But tonight will be a little harder. The girl has a high fever and needs someone to serve her. She often changes handkerchiefs in front of her forehead and gives medicine. Girls may feel thirsty at night and need less water to feed. "

Chen Duan obsidian hanging heart finally put down, ordered: "ok, I see. You can see a doctor. "

After a while, Jia Yuan sent the doctor away, went back to his room and said to Duan, "Master, the medicine was fried by Xiao Er downstairs. You are tired these days, go to rest first, and I will look after this girl here. "

"No, go back to your room and rest." Chen Duan obsidian light way.

"Master ..." Jia Yuan wanted to say something more. As you can see, Chen Duan Obsidian has picked up the handkerchief in the hot water basin and carefully wiped the sweat off her cheeks for the sleeping girl. Jia Yuan had to quietly quit.

Who is protecting her? Take care of it like that. Mom? No, your son feels the unique breath of men. Second brother? No, it's not right. Second brother went out to run horses on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Ting Anne? No, he doesn't have the anger flashing around Ting Anne. This man is very warm and gentle to her, Assasi! who is it? In a daze, your son gradually fell into a coma.

Chen Duan obsidian quietly looked at his son. He never thought that one day he could care so much about a woman.

For the first time, on the night of the Xiangfu party, he deeply remembered her because she coincided with his thoughts. So, the second time we met, he could recognize her at a glance.

Surprise words at first sight, bright smile at goodbye, love at third sight.

The first time he met a woman who made him want to be with him, he occupied his world a little. However, he never appeared in her world. He wants to take her away quietly, but maybe she has her attachment. Rushed into her life and broke the existing peace. He was afraid that she would hate it.

Chen Duan kept your son all night, struggled all night, and finally made a decision.

"Master, it's time to start. Are we going to take this girl? " Jia Yuanyao tried Chen Duan's mind.

"No, you escort her to comfort yourself. They will take care of her."

"yes." Jia Yuan got up and went out to prepare.

"Tell Shu Xin, don't tell who saved her." Deeply puzzled, Jia Yuanyao glanced at Chen Duan and turned to leave the room to prepare the carriage.

Duan sat quietly for a long time, stepped down from her wrist and put it in her son's hand. She whispered, "If you are destined, if you have the heart, you will definitely come to me."

Your son moved a little, moved to a more comfortable position and slept soundly.

The green water is leisurely and the face is wrinkled by the wind.

Castle peak is not old, it is a snow-white head.

The only way is that the jade people pity the roots of Saussurea involucrata and treat his heart a little better.

To be continued.
