Chapter 083 Beauty Confusion 1
The next day, there are three poles in the day. It's time to make an appointment with Li Shimin. I went to Li Shimin Hall with joy. The door of the hall opened slightly. It seemed that someone had sent water to wash. I smiled and lifted the curtain, smelling a faint fragrance in my nose, and I was curious about when Li Shimin used incense here. When I entered the tent, I saw a man in a plain gauze robe sitting with his back to me. I couldn't help but pause, and then looked carefully. The skin was like curd gel, the blue silk lowered my waist, and I turned my face. A pair of charming eyes were like silk, and my pretty lips opened slightly, as if I were surprised by my arrival.
Who is this woman...?
Li Shimin was sitting in front of the woman at this time, holding a teacup and drinking slowly. He couldn't help but be surprised to see me. He seemed to be a little unhappy and said, "Why don't you say anything in advance when you come in."
Because of my delicate relationship with him, I avoided the time for his discussion and entered his hall without saying in advance. Why did I report it first today? I secretly looked at the woman in front of him and retreated and said, "It's unfortunate. Say goodbye!"
I turned around, and the person behind me rushed to pull my wrist. I was happy, but my face still pretended to be cold. I looked back at him. He seemed to think about it for a long time before saying, "I'll find you later."
My heart was suddenly dull. I nodded and left the hall. I laughed when I stepped out of the hall. Today's sunshine is shining. It's a good day to walk and talk, but it's a pity... without the people around me.
I walked alone on the half-cooked palace road, blank and absent-minded. I have always comforted myself that Li Shimin, who is victorious and unrestrained, will naturally not forget to appreciate the beautiful women in the prosperous eastern capital. What's more, that is the way and intention of the generals and heroes He Sheng. What's more, regardless of the sincere relationship between the emperor and ministers, the eldest grandson Wuji came forward to invite him, and he was also involuntarily. Thinking about it, I blamed myself for being stingy and suspicious. How could Li Shimin fall in love with me overnight?
I suddenly felt someone coming behind me, and I suddenly turned around, but my heart was suddenly lost. Qin Shubao saw the look in my eyes, smiled hoarsely, quietly walked to me and looked at the blooming moon with me this morning. This color is always so beautiful and dazzling.
The wind in the morning is very comfortable, but it can't take away the tightness in my chest. I wanted to know more, but it was difficult to ask again. Finally, I went back and forth in my mind many times and said in a frenze: "Your Highness brought that woman back yesterday, didn't you?"
Qin Shubao looked at me with an unknown emotion. He sighed, "You need to know sooner or later."
I was stunned. Is this woman going to follow Li Shimin back to Chang'an?
Her name is Wei Wei. She is the great-granddaughter of Wei Xiaokuan, a famous general of the Northern Dynasty, the granddaughter of Wei, the great general of Zhou Qiqi, and the daughter of Wei Yuancheng, the Duke of Sui Kaifu. Her husband is General Li Min. She was at least two years older than Li Shimin, and her marriage came to an end in the ninth year of Sui Daye (June 3). That year, Yang Xuan rebelled and Li Zixiong participated in it. Yang Xuan felt defeated, Li Zixiong and Li Min's father and son were both killed, and their families were gone. Because Wei Wei's mother's family background was extraordinary, she escaped the fate of not being an official maidservant, took her daughter back to Luoyang's mother's house and began her widowhood.
In this year, in the fourth year of Wude (June 31), the Tang army attacked Luoyang City. I don't know if it was an opportunity given by God. Li Shimin met Wei Hui on the day he was invited to the banquet by the soldiers, that is, last night. Bringing a woman back, everyone knows what Li Shimin wants to do. Take her back to Chang'an and enter Chengqian Hall. Since then, there has been another person in the Tang Palace.
I smiled faintly. I don't know whether it's irony or sadness, and my eyes are far away. I asked Qin Shubao to take me to see the place where they met last night. I want to see under what circumstances this woman immediately won the favor of Li Shimin. When I came to the garden where the soldiers gathered last night, the wine pots and plates had not been cleaned up, and the faint smell of wine and the faint smell of rouge could not dissipate in the air. You can imagine how the song and dances rose last night.
Looking up at the upper seat, it must be Li Shimin's seat. Did he see her so condescendingly? I slowly walked forward, with a line of dry black ink scattered on the seat, and a piece of black and white paper lay quietly under the seat. I picked it up and found that the handwriting was indeed Li Shimin's. Qin Shubao beside him saw this and looked eager. He looked at the paper full of words in the book and sighed. Are you complaining that I didn't put it away at the beginning and now I've seen it? If you are injured, why do you care about the depth?
The chic and powerful black handwriting pierced my eyes and slid down from my fingers. I don't know what to do to face it, but I just can't laugh. Without thinking, I stepped back and left in a hurry. I tried to escape, but the deeper I went, the more I got, the more injured I became. When I looked up again, I somehow returned to my temple. Maybe God wants to let me be alone. I locked the door, closed the window, and sat in the gray hall. I felt that the cold air around me came, which made me shiver a few times. Closing my eyes is full of the woman's soft back, and opening my eyes is full of this quiet and deep sadness.
"The nature is simple and dignified. Worrying and hard-working, solemn words and words. Spring peppers are praised, and the lotus of Wu Xiu is gorgeous; autumn is Tengwen, covering the brocade of the Shu River.
Wei Kui is indeed a beauty, and it is also a good thing that it is rare for Li Shimin to praise and love her like this. What a good thing...
At lunch, I felt dizzy with a headache. I gently closed my eyes on my couch and tried to turn everything in my mind into a blank so that I didn't have to be so complicated. The sultry afternoon always provoked some sleepiness. I listened to the occasional sound of cicadas outside and was in a trance. I actually felt a slight trembling on the couch, and someone hugged me tightly from behind. I still closed my eyes and ignored it, but I sighed in my heart how to have such a dream, until the warm breath fell on my ear and whispered, "Xiran?"
I suddenly woke up and looked back at Li Shimin's gentle eyes. I didn't feel angry. I pushed him hard but turned myself back and almost fell down. He reached out and picked me back, with his chin against my forehead: "Be careful, I'm the only one who loves you if you fall."
Listening to this, his eyes suddenly became wet, but he was fiercely suppressed by me. His fingers wrapped around his clothes and his face was silent. Li Shimin hugged me and breathed clearly in my ear. He finally said to me, "I... want to take her back to Chang'an."
Yester night, I'm afraid that the whole army knew what was going to happen. It would be really inappropriate for Li Shimin to abandon her. But Wei Wei once had a husband and a daughter. Did he care at all? I shouldn't have asked these words. Now that Li Shimin has decided, what can I do? It's just that I'm really bored. I want to hear what he plans to do, but I'm reluctant to ask.
There was a heavy heartbeat under the palm of my hand, and I touched it with sadness and joy. Li Shimin stroked my long hair and suddenly said, "Her cousin Weinizi will also go back to Chang'an with us!"
I was stunned. I pushed him away and turned my back to him and said, "Your Highness wants to accept the concubine, why inform me one by one!"
Li Shimin held my arm and leaned down to look at me: "I'm not afraid that you will sulk. It's better to relieve your sulking now."
Oh, sooner or later! I sat up and looked angrily, staring at the innocent face of the beautiful woman in front of me, as if she was so gentle, but it hurt me fiercely. At this time, I was used to saying that I was wrong. Sitting up, I stroked my long hair as if it had nothing to do with it, "After I go back, I will arrange the palace of the two new masters of Chengqian Hall and other things as soon as possible."
How could he not hear the twisted words, but he lay on his side and looked at me and laughed: "That's bothering you. Wei Wei followed me, and the only cousin in the family followed me.
It was especially taken for granted, but my heart was severely hurt by his words. I darkened my eyes and smiled and said, "I want to rest. You go out."
Li Shimin took my palm and put it on the palm of his hand and pressed it gently: "Are you driving me away like this? Will it be the same in the future, driving me to other women?" I withdrew my hand angrily and turned my head to look at him. He got up and hugged me: "I'm sorry to bother you for your troublesome words. Yanran, I'm really happy that you care so much! After returning to Chang'an, I will definitely leave me by my side and be the master of Chengqian Hall. You can't escape.
I pulled away his hand on my waist and said, "Is this how you tease my feelings for you? Is that what you want to see to make people angry and sad? Besides, when will I promise to marry you? Have you asked me if I want to, or not?"
He looked at me fixedly and smiled unnaturally. He nodded lightly: "Indeed, I didn't ask you. If you still don't want to, forget it!"
He turned over and went to bed, randomly trimmed his robe and pushed the door away. The door of the hall was not closed. There was some light from the outside, which hurt my eyes, and the hall fell into silence again, so that people would not be cold! A line of warmth flowed down the face, but when it fell on the knee, it became two drops of cold. I began to resent myself. Why is he so stubborn? Why should I embarrass him so much?
This night, I lay in the cold hall and couldn't dream. He tossed and turned and slept in a daze. When the night watchman outside the door passed by, he suddenly opened his eyes and woke up, and then sighed and mocked. Until the white fog came out in the sky, I put on my robe, went out of the hall alone, and stood on a rock to watch the sunrise in the east. It was not specially to see the newborn sun, but inadvertently it had reached the top of the sky, and the people in the palace began to gather everything back to Chang'an.
At this time, two women slowly walked on the palace road not far away. One is Wei Ji, and the other should be her 15-year-old cousin Weinizi. The two happened to look at me here. The three met and smiled and met a corner of the palace road.
Weinzi was dressed in blue, very beautiful and lovely, and still a little immature. She looked at me, and her beautiful willow leaves raised her eyebrows slightly. Wei Gui beside her is much more mature. She seems to like to wear plain clothes, which just makes her fair skin more transparent. Her original virtuous temperament is also more gentle and generous. She smiled and said, "You are Xiran, aren't you? Fever is easy these days. I heard yesterday that you have a headache and feel dizzy. Is it better today?
For the first time face to face, she actually cared and greeted me. Yesterday, I just said that because I was sulking myself, and I didn't want to be taken seriously by her. It seems that I was too stingy about her before. I smiled and said, "It's a lot better. I'm really worried."
Wei Wei smiled with relief and came forward to shake my hand: "This is also the right one. In the future, I will take care of you.
I was stunned and nodded with a smile.
