Chapter 029 Falling Flowers 3
I took the words and withdrew from the study. Li Shimin didn't know what to do without instructions. He walked alone to the corridor behind the palace to see the water. Few people come to this place, and the people who do things are generally busy in the front hall. I took out the subword from my sleeve and unfolded it, and a faint ink fragrance came from the paper, hiding his fragrance. Thinking of him teaching me how to write behind me just now, my face couldn't help but get hot. At this inadvertent time, the words in my hand were suddenly taken away. I panicked and turned around. Li Jiancheng was looking at the subword carefully and gradually pulled down his face to stiffen.
"See you, Your Highness." I am blessed.
Li Jiancheng looked at me and held the subword with his two fingers: "The gentleness of the woman is strong in his boldness, and he follows the strange trembling decisively. Is this what the second brother taught you to write?
Although I saw that he didn't look good, I only said yes. Li Jiancheng suddenly blackened his face and stared at the word for a long time. I was afraid that he would tear it up, and it was not smooth to rob, and my heart was very entangled. Fortunately, he still returned the words to me. I quickly put them away and asked him, "The prince is here to find His Royal Highness the King of Qin. He is in the study..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Jiancheng waved his hand: "No, I'm not here to find my second brother. You don't need to report it. I'm here to see you."
"See me?" I whispered, "What can the prince do for you?"
Li Jiancheng grasped my hand and asked, "What's the matter?" Don't you know yet?" He looked at my eyes suddenly tightening behind me. Looking back, Li Shimin also stood at the end of the porch with a solemn face. Seeing us looking at him, he stepped in with a smile.
"Big brother seldom comes to my hall. Why did you come here today? Xiran, you can make another pot of tea and send it to the hall!" Li Shimin raised his tone and laughed a few times. Li Jiancheng also smiled at him and said to him with a smile, "Second brother, thank you for your hard work. Let me see what you deserve." The two clapped their hands and went to the hall together. I stared at them, and my heart was even more puzzled, so I had to go to the teahouse to make tea for them first.
When I went in to serve tea, the two were sitting in high seats talking happily. When Li Shimin saw me coming, he said happily to Li Jiancheng, "Brother, I just sent someone to write Mengding Tea. How about you try it?" OK!" Li Jiancheng said cheerfully. I made a cup for him, and put my hands on it. He looked at me at a low speed, took the teacup and looked at it for a while, and drank it softly.
Li Jiancheng closed his eyes and savored it carefully, and then raised his glass to watch the water in the cup: "Transparent green, smooth but not greasy, the tea fragrance is light, and the aftertaste is endless."
Li Shimin said: "Because Mengdinggong tea is only limited to seven plants, the number of tea is very small. At first, 600 leaves were collected, followed by 300 leaves and 350 leaves. Finally, 360 leaves were collected every year based on 360 days of the lunar calendar, which were roasted by refined tea among the temple monks. When frying tea, the temple monk recited the scriptures, made it, then storage it in two silver bottles, then put it in a wooden box, and sealed it with yellow elixir.
Li Jiancheng smiled and said, "Ha ha, it's so precious. No wonder the second brother hides himself as a treasure."
Li Shimin laughed and said, "Big brother was wrong. I have sent a group of people to send this tea to my father's palace, and others are going to your East Palace! However, this tea is well made, thanks to the person who makes the tea. After saying that, Li Shimin looked at me with a smile.
I nodded with a smile and explained softly: "To make tea, choose the source of water, the water is alive, the taste of the water should be sweet, the water quality should be clear, and the water should be light. And the utensils for making tea can't be careless.
Li Jiancheng nodded and smiled, "Who taught you?"
I said, "Sometimes I can't sleep at night, and I often borrow some unimportant books to read. Please don't punish the prince and His Royal Highness Qin."
"Why not a banned book!" Li Jiancheng smiled, turned his head to drink tea, and then said, "It turns out that this tea is not natural and beautiful. If the second brother sends the tea maker together, this tea is the best." Li Shimin flashed his eyes and still smiled: "It's the same for the eldest brother to come to Chengqian Hall to sit down."
"Definite, definitely." Li Jiancheng got up, glanced at me secretly, and said to Li Shimin, "I have something else to do. Let's go first." Li Shimin smiled brightly and said goodbye to him. After Li Jiancheng left, Li Shimin sat back to the hall: "Let's have tea." I came forward to make a cup for him, and he tasted it, "It's a little bitter than the previous pot." The maidservant went to soak again. I said." No need." Li Shimin stopped me, "Anyway, he has tasted it."
"Yes." I answered and stood aside. Li Shimin looked at me and stopped talking. He hurriedly poured a few cups of tea and suddenly asked me, "In my absence, do you often be with the prince?"
I thought about it: "Occasionally."
Li Shimin smiled inexplicably and said, "What do you care about? A woman as big as you always hides a heartfelt. Seven emotions and six desires, what people have, are not ruthless in the palace. If you are willing to say frankly, I may be able to help you.
I was panicked by what he said and said, "No. I'm a maidservant...no."
"No? Don't you like the prince?" Li Shimin saw me more deeply. Inexplicably nervous, his back was so hot that he couldn't speak for a long time. The figure in front flashed, and I smelled a faint musk approaching. I have been pressed on my shoulder by Li Shimin. I looked at him in a franing and couldn't speak. After a few months, I often think of the time with him, whether it was good or bad, short or... I almost forgot that I had not been alone with him for a long time. At this moment, my heart is full of frightening expectations, which is a curse, a dreamy curse. Because of some things, knowing that it is impossible, they are still full of infinite desire.
Li Shimin stroked my cheek, and his fingers were enough to mess up my mind. I had to lower my head to escape. Li Shimin grabbed my arm, and every word seemed to be a drop of water, disturbing my calm heart lake.
He almost smiled evilly and couldn't figure out the meaning he wanted to know: "My feeling is sharp. That person is not the prince, but His Royal Highness the King of Qin who lives in this Chengqian Hall."
My mind exploded, as if the secret that had been sealed for a long time was suddenly exposed to the bright sun. I was very nervous, and the beating of my chest accelerated so quickly that I couldn't breathe. I hurried back a few steps, but Li Shimin still looked firm: "What? Is it possible that His Royal Highness the King of Qin is not worthy of your heart?
Hearing the words, I bowed to him and said, "No, His Royal Highness the King of Qin is a talented, wise and martial arts, and more importantly, he has made great contributions to protect the country and annihilate thieves. This is... This is a great hero."
Li Shimin approached, put his palm on the pillar behind me, and trapped me in his arms. Do you like it so much?"
I looked sideways, but I was turned back by his two fingers, and my deep eyes touched me. Say it." Li Shimin ordered. No..." I shook my lips and couldn't say the following words. Li Shimin's eyes gradually deepened, and his face was like a layer of frost. He let go of his hand and distanced himself from me, as if he were helpless as if he were in pain. You like it, but the king of Qin won't like a maid like you!" He said slowly.
My heart seemed to be empty, and I sighed in a low voice: "My status is low, and I can't match His Royal Highness the King of Qin. Slaves have self-knowledge, and they won't have any extravagant hopes, but they don't understand one thing. Li Shimin turned his head and looked at me: "What do I want to do? I never need to tell anyone why. If you think I tease you, then I tell you that the woman I want never teases you.
My heart is empty, and my chest hurts. I tried to recover and nodded. When he looked up again, Li Shimin was no longer in the hall, leaving me alone. Originally, I had understood that the secret in my heart would be extremely uncomfortable to be exposed under his brightness, but I didn't expect that the pain of being rejected by my own mouth was so suffocating. With nowhere to vent, I had to run desperately and leave Chengqian Hall. It is said that it is false that you never like it, and that it is false that you do not expect it. I clearly understand why I have often been fascinated by that piece of jade since he left.
This day, I didn't go back to Chengqian Hall. The room that the court gave me is just right at this moment.
The bright moon drunk me, and the maple red drunk autumn.
The moon is light and silent. The hazy dream also suddenly turned red. I lay quietly on **, tossing and turning, waking up sleepless. When I opened my eyes, the silver light outside the window, the moon was full and the wind was light; when I climbed up, I was bored, and I was a little melancholy to hide my chest; when I walked out of the door, the breeze brushed my face, half drunk and half awake, and my heart rolled up waves.
In the quiet night, the black curtain opened, and the indifferent moon sprinkled with gentle brilliance. I wandered alone on the shore of the corridor, and the faint fragrance locked tonight's indifference. In such a warm situation, I lost myself. A breeze blew, and the moonlight was also slightly cold, full of confusion, and my heart seemed to have already flown far away. Long cry, shocking the vegetation.
The next day, I went to Chengqian Hall as usual. A maid of honor saw me and bowed her head to me. It seemed that the maid of honor in Chengqian Hall was not as deliberately difficult as yesterday. The maid of honor said to me respectfully, "Your Highness, sister, you are still serving Princess Qin from today."
Returning to Princess Qin's side to serve is always like the comfort of serving Princess Qin by delivering tea and water beside Li Shimin. I signaled to go to Princess Qin when I knew it. When I went in, Princess Qin had already got up, and the maid of honor was waiting for her to wear a robe. I went forward to salute: "Princess Qin Wanfu, I don't know where my mother is going?"
Princes Qin was not surprised to see me. She smiled shyly and said, "When I got up this morning, I found that the red leaves fell on the ground outside, which was very beautiful on the ground." I moved to support her: "I will help you."
I helped Princess Qin walk slowly on the middle road of the palace. After the wind blew yesterday night, the red leaves fell all over the ground. Looking around, the road was red. When I came, I didn't pay attention to it. After enjoying it so quietly with Princess Qin, I found how heartbreaking and beautiful it was. On the red leaves, the veins of life were clearly left, as if they had fallen to the ground, who gave birth to a withered heart.
