14. Chapter 14
As night fell, Tang Yu rested early.
Not long after the Dragon Boat Festival, the sun was exposed to the sun during the day, and it was too lazy to move. It was dark now, and a trace of wind finally blew in through the window screen, with the water-like moonlight, the light green curtain swayed gently, and it was as thin as a layer of fog. Outside the fog was the quiet inner courtyard of the palace, and inside the fog was a little girl who was worried and sleepless.
Tang Yu couldn't sleep. Once he closed his eyes, he could not control himself and remembered the scene in the water. Song Qin hugged her and acted recklessly.
"Cousin, I am jealous. I am jealous of the fact that I guarded carefully, and he took the lead..."
Wei Zhao's words were still in his ears, Tang Yu closed his eyes and his eyebrows were filled with sorrow.
How could she be bullied and humiliated by Song Qin? Since Wei Zhao said she liked her, her future husband was Wei Zhao. In recent years, her appearance has become more and more beautiful. Every time the elders praised her, she would think of Wei Zhao and Wei Zhao's stunning appearance when she saw her. In Tang Yu's opinion, she was Wei Zhao's childhood sweetheart and his future wife. All her daughters' family proud of her appearance or figure are left for Wei Zhao to see and touch.
But he called a disciple...
She didn't tell anyone about this. Will Song Qin really let her go? Will he suddenly say it out loud one day? Wei Zhao minds at that time, what should she do? She didn't dare to tell Wei Zhao on his own initiative, not wanting the third person to know the scene she didn't want to recall the most. However, without saying it, her heart was completely hung on the edge of the cliff, trembling and uneasy all day long.
How good it would be if she was a man? In this way, the father would not have to marry Rong against his will, and she would not have to toss and turn because of her reputation. Why do women have so many requirements for women? Men touched them. Women are romantic and no one would chase and scold them for this. If they were touched, they would have to bear the accusations of men and gossip of women.
Sometimes I was dissatisfied with the harshness of the world on women, sometimes I missed my father who was far away from the frontier, and sometimes I was worried about the future. The little girl held the middle clothes with her right hand, turning around, and wondering when she would fall into a deep dream.
The boundless lake water suddenly surged. Tang Yu struggled upwards in horror, revealing the water surface. Before he could breathe, a wave hit him and she was swept into the water again. Tang Yu thrust hard and broke the water again. When he heard Wei Zhao's voice, he was like a life-saving straw. She waved to him ecstatically. At this moment, there was a sudden increase of an arm around his waist, and he turned her over strongly and rudely.
With the storm and rain, Tang Yu unexpectedly met a pale and cold face, with long and narrow eyes and eyes like wolves, staring at her faintly.
Tang Yu was afraid, so she shouted Wei Zhao's name loudly and asked Wei Zhao to save her, but there was no familiar figure on the shore, and she was dragged into the water by someone. Her long hair spread and her black hair floated. She struggled in despair, but she couldn't stop the man's domineering hand. She couldn't help but crashed into his arms, and he played with her heart over and over again.
After having enough fun, he raised her chin, his black eyes were unpredictable, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, contemptuous and sarcastic, as if he was mocking her for being overestimated before, as if he was telling her that she was his prey, and he could tear her clothes to pieces and swallow them into his stomach at any time as long as he wanted.
Tang Yu suddenly woke up when his hand was suddenly caught.
"Girl, have you had a nightmare?" The lights had been lit in the room. Molan bent down in her middle clothes and stood in front of the bed, looking at her girl worriedly. She was sleeping well just now, and she vaguely heard someone calling her cousin, rubbing her eyes and sitting up. There was indeed movement in the inner room. When she walked to the bed, she saw the girl lying on her back, covering her chest with her hands folded, her face pale and tears on her face.
Molan felt so distressed. He heard that when he was sleeping at night, he could easily have nightmares, so he wanted to pull the girl's hand away first.
"Girl, it's okay, don't be afraid, I'm here to guard you." Mo Lan sat tilted on the edge of the bed and helped the girl feel considerately.
Tang Yu looked at the familiar maid and gradually woke up. When she recalled the situation in her dream, she smiled bitterly, took Molan's veil, sat up and said, "I was shocked during the day, but I didn't expect it to be a nightmare. I'm really brave. Don't tell my aunt about this, and you are not allowed to tell Master Chou."
"Well, I listen to the girl." Mo Lan said in a soft voice. After looking at Tang Yu, she stood up, "I'll go get a basin of water, and the girl wipe her face."
Tang Yu nodded.
After washing her face and changing her clothes, Tang Yu couldn't sleep anymore. She was afraid of dreaming again, so she asked Mo Lan to go to bed first. She leaned against the bed and looked at a travel notes from Shu that she brought into the palace. She read half of the books in succession and felt sleepy. Tang Yu didn't force herself anymore. She put on the book and slept in the soft light.
I didn't dream anymore this time.
The next day, Tang Yu's throat was a little uncomfortable, his head was dizzy, and he was weak all over. Mo Lan was startled and rushed to report to the empress dowager. Tang Yu called her and shook his head, "It should be just a little cold. It's not a problem. The empress dowager also needs to take care of the emperor. Let's not cause trouble for her. Let's hold on first. If you haven't improved after going home, you'll ask the doctor to take a look."
Of course, Molan, a maid, listened to his master.
Tang Yu sat against the bed for a while, after washing up, his spirit finally improved. When combing his hair, he deliberately asked Molan to apply more rouge than usual. Then he looked at the person in the mirror. His skin was white and his lips were red, his eyes were bright, and he smiled deliberately, but he couldn't tell that he was sick.
Tang Yu was very satisfied and took Molan to pay tribute to the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager held her hand and asked her how she slept last night. She was gentle and friendly. Tang Yu smiled and said without any hindrance. She turned her head to care about the situation of the little emperor Song Jin. Song Jin had never had an airs of emperors, and his words and deeds were no different from those of ordinary nobles' children. He blamed Tang Yu for admitting his mistake: "It's all my fault that I was playing so that Sister Yu fell into the water. Fortunately, Sister Yu didn't have any trouble, otherwise I would be embarrassed to see you in the future, and I have a cousin."
Tang Yu was about to comfort him, but when he heard the four words behind him, his face suddenly turned red.
The empress dowager smiled and the three of them talked about family matters. Not long after, Wei Zhao of Tang came to the palace and came over to have fun together.
~
Tang Yu's trip was very grand.
A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although the empress dowager is not strong enough, the empress dowager is still very important in the hearts of the female family in various palaces. After all, he is the most noble woman in the world. Being praised by the empress dowager is also icing on the cake for the female family. Therefore, looking at Tang Yu, who was kneeling in the middle of the hall, the empress dowager personally brought her hairpin, the noble girls on both sides who were not yet in the hairpin showed envy in their eyes, hoping that they could also have this honor.
Tang Yu couldn't hold on anymore, and when he stood up, he was too heavy to the top, but fortunately his makeup concealed her fatigue.
After lunch, the empress dowager wanted to keep her in the palace for a few more days. Tang Yu politely declined and followed her aunt out of the palace. When she walked out of the palace gate, she was about to reach the carriage. Tang Yu's eyes turned dark and she fell straight forward. Tang was shocked. Fortunately, Molan kept paying attention to her master and helped him in time.
"Yu'er, what's wrong?" Tang helped Mo Lan hold her niece's other shoulder, and looked down at her niece's haggard appearance that could not be concealed by her makeup. She felt very distressed.
Tang Yu was just dizzy, and at this time he had already come back to his senses. He said weakly: "It's cold in the water. Aunt, please send me back to the house first. I don't want to disturb the Queen Mother."
The little girl was too worried. Tang sighed, first helped the person into the car, then hugged her weak niece and said, "Don't go home, go to my aunt's house for a few days, and go back when she recovered." The brothers were not at home, and there were only two mothers of Rong, the Marquis of Jingning. Everything would be fine if they didn't cause trouble for their niece. Tang could not count on Rong's niece to take care of her niece.
Tang Yu shook his head and leaned against the warm shoulder of his elders and said, "Let's go back."
She didn't want to see Wei Zhao now, and she felt guilty.
Knowing that his niece was a big deal, Tang had to instruct the coachman to go to the Marquis' Mansion of Jingning first.
The horse's four hooves were brisk and pulled the mother and the other two quickly. A quarter of an hour later, a little eunuch in red robe bent into Zhenghe Hall, lowered his head and reported to the man leaning on the couch to read, "Prince, I just got the letter. Miss Tang seemed to be sick. She almost fainted before leaving the palace. She was supported by her maid in time. Now the carriage is heading to the Jingning Marquis' Mansion."
Song Qinfeng stared at the booklet and nodded faintly.
The little eunuch waited for a while, but did not receive any other instructions. He just pretended that the regent did not take this matter to heart, and gave a tribute and left backwards.
When the person left, Song Qin frowned and put down the book.
Sick?
The three of them fell into the water and both children were fine. Why was she so cute?
I felt a little disgusted, but when I thought of her petite and pale face, Song Qin felt a little turbulent again, wanting to know if she was seriously ill.
When he returned home at dusk, Song Qin sent someone to inquire secretly.
Before dark, the secret guard came back and knelt in front of him and said, "Prince, the doctor said that Miss Tang just caught a cold and could be cured after taking medicine for three days. She also advised Miss Tang to rest assured and not to think too much, which would cost her energy."
The two walnuts in Song Qin's hand stopped rotating.
She has a heart disease?
Apart from thinking about her father’s concerns about getting married, what else can he have? He was worried that he fell ill?
The situation of diving to save her jumped into her mind again. Song Qin suddenly understood. She was afraid that the matter would spread, and she was afraid that he would continue to get involved.
Looking at the calm, calm and fearless, it turns out that he is as timid as a mouse.
"Go and invite the third princess."
~
Wei Zhao immediately rushed to visit after hearing the news, looking forward to her cousin, looking quite as if she was not wanting to leave. Tang Yu was sick, no matter how strong she was, she actually wanted someone to care. She felt much more comfortable when she was coaxed by him. Before going to bed, she had sweating at night. When she woke up in the morning, she was mostly cured.
For the time being, Wuxin and Rong's mother were both silly and silly. Tang Yu still used breakfast in Mei Pavilion and lay on the bed to read books after dinner. Only by doing something can she stop thinking about what happened in the palace the day before yesterday.
"Girl, the third princess is here!" Huilan hurried over, and before she could step into the outside, the voice came in first.
Tang Yu was shocked, "Three Princess?"
Huilan stopped at the door panting and nodded, "Yes, yes, I said that I couldn't celebrate the girl's birthday yesterday. The third princess was unhappy and got angry with the prince. The prince sent someone to see you."
Tang Yu was so amused that he was occupied by the lively and cute third princess, and forgot about those worries for a while.
The third princess was still young, and Tang Yu did not change his clothes, so he hurried to welcome the guests.
"Sister Yu!" The third princess wore a red dress and ran to Tang Yu happily. Her face was white and clean, and her pink and jade-like appearance was particularly rare. "Sister Yu, I wanted to enter the palace yesterday. The emperor said that I was weak and I would not let me go. I gave you this, this is my birthday gift!"
The little girl raised the box in her hand and handed it to Tang Yu.
"The third princess is so nice." Tang Yu took the box with one hand and walked towards Mei Pavilion with the other hand.
"Sister Yu, take a look first!" The third princess was anxious to know if Sister Yu liked her gift.
Tang Yu smiled, opened the box, and saw a particularly beautiful shuttlecock with bright and colorful feathers.
"This is a shuttlecock made of pheasant feathers!" The third princess explained excitedly, "Uncle Emperor said he called it himself, and made two, one I kept for myself to kick, and the other for Sister Yu. Uncle Emperor said that he would be healthy to kick shuttlecock every day and would not get sick." This is a gift that the emperor chose for her.
The smile on Tang Yu's face became a little stiffer. The shuttlecock he liked very much suddenly didn't want to touch it.
Yan coaxed the third princess insincerely, Tang Yu put the gift back into the box and led the third princess back to Mei Pavilion.
Molan went to prepare the pastry, and Huilan was serving him. The third princess's big eyes were rolling around. While Huilan was not paying attention, she quickly took out a small bamboo tube from her sleeve and stuffed it into Tang Yu's hand, and said quietly: "Sister Yu, Uncle Yu asked me to give it to you, don't tell others." The emperor asked her to help for the first time. Whatever she said and did, the third princess remembered it firmly.
After giving instructions, the third princess secretly looked at Huilan again, sure Huilan didn't see it. She smiled proudly and looked at Tang Yu.
Tang Yu frowned, clenched the bamboo tube in his hand, and wanted to stuff it to the third princess again and let her take it back intact and return it to Song Qin. However, when she saw the third princess's face excited because of sending a message for the emperor's uncle, she thought of the cold-faced punishment that the third princess might have suffered in the mission, she changed into a smile in time.
There is no need to involve children in the grudges of adults.
"Then don't tell others, do you know?" Tang Yu told the little girl quietly, "Even cousin Zhao and the emperor's brother are not allowed to say it."
The third princess nodded vigorously and agreed to the emperor's uncle last night.
Tang Yu touched the little girl's head and could only choose to believe it.
After seeing off the third princess, Tang Yu ordered someone to put the shuttlecock in her small warehouse. He never planned to take it out again in this life, so he kept it just to prevent the third princess from remembering it and looking for it. The shuttlecock was solved. Tang Yu sent Mo Lan and Huilan to guard the outside. She sat on the bed, took out the small note from the bamboo tube, hesitated for a moment, and unfolded it.
"Unless you think that, only heaven knows the earth knows, you know me.
