Vol 3 Chapter 67: 11 x Shiyi Second

"Xia Sanqi, the moon sinks into the hook, the curtain rolls the Weiyang Tower. The Yeliang River shuts off the sky and the palace locks Qingqiu."
In the humble palace, the little girl was holding books and reading poems, her voice was crisp and childish.
The mother took the dried bedding into the hall and spread it on the cave.
"Princess, cough-cough--" He choked his throat by the cough just as he wanted to say something.
The little girl put down the book quickly, "Mother, you have a cough again."
"The old slave is fine, fine."
Looking at the nine-year-old Princess Jiahe, the mother could only swallow the sorrow in her heart.
The mother and concubine of Princess Jiahe was originally a woman from ordinary people's home. Because of her outstanding appearance, she was favored by the emperor who visited in private. The emperor brought back the innocent and innocent woman, for a moment to dominate the harem.
Later, when Princess Jiahe was born, the emperor was overjoyed and promoted his mother and concubine to noble concubine.
But the tree attracts the wind, and the imperial concubine who has no mother's support has become a thorn in the eyes of everyone. Those people's step-by-step design made the young imperial concubine be ignored by the emperor and finally turned into disgust.
In this harem, the concubine who had no family support and lost her favor was bullied, and the tortured woman died soon afterwards, leaving only the little princess.
At first the emperor would pity the young girl, but where could the emperor lack children?
As princes and princesses were born one after another, and some people made troubles, slowly, the little princess was forgotten in this remote palace.
Although she lives by the name of the master, she can't even live as much as the harem's favorite concubine.
The people in the palace used to meet the windshield, and even the maids and eunuchs were transferred away, leaving only Princess Jiahe and the mother.
Originally, the mother wanted to ask the emperor to be the master of the little master. The emperor only gave a few words, and it didn't last long. On the contrary, it provokes those who are vicious.
The mother finally realized that the human nature was fragile, and she didn't dare to appear again, she just wanted to guard the little princess peacefully and protect her from growing up.
"Grandma, drink water." Fortunately, Princess Jiahe is sensible and not arrogant.
The mother was sick, but no one was healed.
An autumn banquet is being organized in the palace, Princess Jiahe didn't know it, because the mother fell ill.
Princess Jiahe only remembered that there was a doctor Li in the Taiyuan Hospital who was an enthusiastic person. She ran and invited the doctor Li to come.
Seeing the bleakness here, the doctor Li sighed again and again, thinking of the scenery of the concubine once.
With the help of Doctor Li, the mother's illness finally recovered.
It was very lively outside, and Doctor Li said, "It's an autumn banquet!"
Princess Jiahe yearned for her.
She also wanted to go to that lively place.
The little princess was boring alone, she always looked into the distance when she heard the lively sounds.
But she remembered that the mother said that she couldn't run around at will. The little princess had to guard outside the palace and squatted on the ground to play with stones.
"Yeah!" A person suddenly jumped on the big rock in front, and she was frightened to fall to the ground.
Shi Yi jumped from a height, but didn't notice that there was a little girl here.
Seeing that she was frightened by herself and sat down on the ground, Shi Yi stretched out his hand and easily pulled the person up. Males and females are seven years old and different seats, but he grew up on the border since he was a child, and he returned to the capital with his father not long ago.
"Are you a little palace lady?" He saw the little girl in plain clothes and no servants around him, so he guessed which palace lady it was.
Princess Jiahe blinked and did not immediately reveal her identity.
Instead, he asked him, "Who are you?"
The little boy raised his eyebrows, "My name is Shi Yi, what is your name?"
Princess Jiahe has never seen a person with such a bold temper, inexplicably feels cordial, she unconsciously raised a smile and told him her name, "Yu Zhiyi."
Yu is the surname of her mother and concubine.
"What are you doing here?"
"play."
"What's so fun about rocks?"
"I don't know." She just couldn't find any other fun things.
Shi Yi lives on the border, and after returning to the capital, he also comes into contact with adult elders or maidservants. After entering the palace, he sees those gorgeously dressed, colorful, and his eyes will be fascinating!
He ran out of the autumn banquet, and the first person he met was Yu Zhiyi. The simple clothes and the white face made people shine.
Shi Yi felt that she had never seen such a soft and waxy little girl, she was clumsy and very interesting!
Without a few words, his stomach groaned.
Once Yu Zhi heard clearly, he simply asked, "Are you hungry?"
Shi Yi touched his stomach, pretending to be an exaggeration, "Yes, no one feeds me, I am starving to death."
Yu Zhi believed it was true, thinking that he was also being bullied, and suddenly felt that he was more pitiful than himself, so he waved at him, "You come with me."
Shi Yi took this strange place as an expedition. He didn't expect this little palace lady to take him into an unmanned palace. She also took a plate of pastries from the table and generously pushed it to him, "I'll eat it for you."
Although Shi Yi didn't quite understand the rules of the palace, he also knew that things could not be taken randomly. Holding the plate of pastries, he asked doubtfully: "Whose thing is this?"
Yu Zhi hesitated, "Um... Princess Jiahe."
"Can you take anything from the princess?"
"Princess Jiahe rewarded me."
"Are you the little palace lady of Princess Jiahe?"
Yu Zhi cast aside his eyes, "Um...Is it."
But the little princess didn't know that the man's appetite was different from her, and Shi Yi was not full after eating a plate of pastries.
Yu Zhi opened his eyes and stared at the empty plate, waved his hand and shook his head, "What should I do, I have nothing left."
"I know a place has a lot of delicious food, I'll take you there!" Shi Yi volunteered and ran out while pulling her.
The pastries he had eaten just now were cold and hard, and they were not as sweet and delicious as the previous ones. Shi Yi plans to take her to the autumn banquet, and then quietly bring her some delicious food.
But I didn't want to, hearing the sound of silk and bamboo from a distance, Yu Zhi stood still.
"I can't go in."
Shi Yi thought she was afraid, and didn't force it. She had an idea, "I still know a place!"
The second place is the Imperial Dining Room.
There are no terrible empresses in this place, and the little princess does not reject it.
The imperial dining room went in and out, busy preparing for the autumn banquet, and the two of them saw the opportunity to sneak in and hide in the corner.
Yu Zhiyi has never experienced it, but now he finds it interesting.
The pastry disappeared for no reason, and the astute cook quietly waved his hands to surround the two little people.
The corner of the little girl's mouth touched the cake, and she was caught by someone before realizing it, and hid her hands helplessly behind her.
The chef recognized her, "Princess Jiahe."
Shi Yi was shocked, "Are you... a princess?"
Later, Shi Yi learned that the cultivation of his new acquaintance was not a little palace lady, but a princess.
But it is the least favored one.
Spring goes by and autumn comes, time flies by.
The low-key little princess grew up slowly in her little palace, and she looked good.
The willow waist is slender, slim, quiet and refined.
"It's a little sleepy, I want to rest. Mother, let's go out first." The voice was clear and sweet, and it made people feel comfortable.
After the mother left, Yu Zhiyi didn't fall asleep and went out secretly. Close the door carefully, she looked around but no one was seen.
When she turned around, a voice suddenly came from behind, "Looking for me?"
"You scared me again!" Yu Zhi Yiyuan opened his eyes, his eyes were inspiring.
Back then, Yi Wurong went to the Piandian to meet her, knowing that she was an unfavored princess, and instead of alienating him, he ran to her when she was in the palace.
No one comes here on weekdays, but freedom.
When Shi Yi grew up, he started bringing things in for her. They are not valuables, they are all foods with different tastes, so she can accept them with confidence.
But after she got used to this way of communication, Shi Yi began to give her some accessories for women. At first she refused to accept it, Shi Yi left the things here.
She let go, "If you are like this, I won't come out to see you next time!"
"Are you sure? No one will tell you folk tales, no one will bring you interesting scripts from outside the palace, nor will you be able to eat Haizhenlou's signature..."
Yu Zhiyi: "..."
Well, she is the weaker side.
When the little princess was depressed, Shi Yi directly took her hand and put the things in her hands, "Anyway, if you can't accept it, I will give it."
Shi Yi's words blocked her speechless.
Although she lives in the palace as a princess, she is not as good as some ordinary people, and she does not even have a silver pair next to her.
She made embroidery in the palace, and then asked Shiyi to take it out of the palace. Part of the money she earned was used to buy silk thread materials and part of it to supplement her life.
It is precisely because of the help of Sometimes Yi that she can live better.
Shi Yi was not making her joke, but acting stubbornly.
Yu Zhiyi tried to repay him, but the jewelry couldn't be given. The only one that could be used as a gift was the female red.
So, I made a pair of shoes for him in return.
After that, Shi Yi liked this gift-giving method and asked her to make shoes and socks, and even...clothing.
However, she never agreed to the latter request.
The man in the blue brocade hid his right hand behind his back and slowly moved forward.
As soon as Yu Zhi noticed his small movements, his head tilted, "What did you bring this time?"
Shi Yi reached out his hand against her forehead, not showing her, "Naturally it is a good thing, but it can't be given for nothing, what about you? What can you give me?"
The little princess lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes cast a shadow, "Where is anyone... asking for gifts from others."
Others may be tactful, but Shiyi has always been straightforward in front of her, "Isn't it me?"
This person is really! Not ashamed!
But the thing she was making, she didn't dare to take it out, she faltered, and finally told him, "There is no gift."
"One by one, I remember the last time I received a gift, it was a month ago." Shi Yi squeezed her face with a cocoon on her fingertips, and when she encountered the delicate and smooth face of the little princess, there were two different feel.
In an instant, the little princess blushed her cheeks, turned her head and avoided, panicking, "No, it can't be like this."
Shi Yi smiled, changed his hand, and handed the gift, "Rouge, for you."
The pattern on the rouge box is exquisite and beautiful, and Yu Zhi likes it at first glance.
"How much did this cost?" she asked.
"Forgot, I bought it easily." Shi Yi also behaved casually.
Yu Zhi was half suspicious, but there was no way to prove it, because she had been in the palace and had no idea about the prices outside the palace.
Later, I learned that the thing in her hand was the favorite rouge of women in the city.
"The things outside the palace are very interesting. If I can go out someday, I will just see it with my own eyes." The people trapped in the palace wall always yearn for the vast world outside.
Shi Yi hesitated for a moment, as if thinking, "I want to get out of the palace? I'll take you out."
Yu Zhi opened his eyes wide, unbelievable, "Can you?"
He nodded lightly and put the rouge box into her hand with a certain tone, "I will pick you up in three days."
At the beginning of the lanterns, singing and dancing, and the bustle of the street.
The carriage stopped by the side, a delicate white hand opened the curtain, and suddenly it was grabbed back by another tough big hand.
Yu Zhi couldn't wait to go down and take a look at this strange and novel environment, but was caught by Shi Yi back and said, "What's the hurry?"
Shi Yi took out a veil and placed it on the cheek of the woman next to her, revealing only a pair of beautiful eyes.
With a thought, Shi Yi leaned forward, all of her own in those clean eyes. He finally restrained, covering those eyes with his hands, "Don't look at me."
Shi Yi got out of the car and reached out to pick her up.
Women's hand bones are slender, and they look very petite in the palm of a man.
He clearly has landed steadily, but Shi Yi did not let go. Instead, he wrapped it up and said righteously: "There are so many people here. I'm afraid you are not used to it the first time you come out. I will hold you."
"Yeah!" Yu Zhiyi's thoughts have been attracted by this bustling light market, "The night outside the palace is so lively."
She was watching the scene, but the sight of the man beside her was lingering on her.
The little princess who was out of the palace for the first time was curious about everything outside, this one was also interesting, and that one was beautiful.
"This mask looks good." She pointed to the fox mask, loving it.
Shi Yi directly took out the silver, and the fox mask said to the boss: "I want this."
Yu Zhiyi quickly pressed his hand, "Brother, don't."
She doesn't want to waste money.
Shi Yi's focus is not here. Following her words, Shi Yi asked, "What do you call me?"
"Brother, brother..." Because the two of them held hands, the stall owner once recognized them as that kind of relationship, so she changed her mouth.
Shi Yi's heart burst into enthusiasm, and then took out the silver and handed it to the stall owner, "Boss, I want two!"
Yu Zhiyi: "???"
Not out of date, she did not dare to express her liking for a certain item at will. However, Shi Yi bought a lot of gadgets and almost returned home with a load.
She sneaked out of the palace and couldn't play for too long. Counting the time, Shi Yi reminded her to go back.
Yu Zhi looked at the lively street market with a bit of dismay, "Now, I'm leaving."
Shi Yi clearly felt that she was down, but couldn't keep her.
When sending her home, Shi Yi stuffed her with all the little things that could be carried on her body. Yu Zhi looked down at these little things and whispered softly, "If I am not a princess, it will be fine."
If you are not a princess, maybe you won't be trapped here.
Shi Yi said, "But one by one, you are also a good princess."
She wondered, "Why is it good?"
"If you were not Princess Jiahe, maybe I would never meet you."
If she were not the unfavored Princess Jiahe, then he would not have met her here in the first place.
All cause and effect are already doomed.
Because of the last words left by Shi Yi, the little princess felt for the first time that she was the "Princess Jiahe"!
Shi Yi digs and digs on his body, and finally takes out a golden bell, "This one is also for you."
The appearance of the bell, but there is no sound.
Yu Zhi was curious, "What is this?"
"Yes... it's a gadget, but I like it very much, you must keep it away!"
"Since you like it, what do you do to me?"
Shi Yi curled his mouth, "You know, I'm not used to wearing this kind of little thing, so you should keep it for me first. If I want it in the future, I will ask you to get it back."
This is not a "gift", and Yu Zhiyi readily accepts this entrustment.
However, the good times did not last long.
When the border invaded, the General Shi led the march.
The situation was critical, and even the mother got the news.
Yu Zhi, who was making embroidery, heard that when the general led the army, the needle pierced his finger and a drop of red blood appeared.
She remembered that Shi Yi once said that he was on the battlefield with his father. But she was in this palace now, and she couldn't even find him.
The four high walls trapped her.
And she missed that person in her heart. On the eve of the expedition, she took the risk and ran to her secretly.
A special cooing sound came from outside the hall. The man took off his dark gray hood and hid his figure in the dark, "Tomorrow I will leave."
"Wait for me!" Yu Zhi hurriedly ran back to the hall, took out the dark blue purse hidden in his sewing box, trot out, gasping in a hurry.
She stuffed her purse into Shi Yi's hands, "Send, give you."
Shi Yi was stunned, "You know, what does this mean?"
A woman gives a man's purse... its profound meaning.
"Already, it's done long ago, I'm timid, I dare not send it." Yu Zhi bit his lip and nodded, his eyes flushed instantly, "Shi Yi...you must return safely!"
No matter how hard to restrain, he moved with his heart, hugging her in his arms, "Don't cry."
"Last time you asked me what the bell is, I can tell you now..." He bent over and whispered in her ear, "That's my favorite thing."
The soft voice is like a spring breeze and snow, and thousands of thoughts grow and spread.
The young son Lang followed his father to join the army and repeatedly made outstanding achievements on the battlefield. The emperor specially named him a hussar general.
This war continued for October.
The strength of the two sides was equal, and other countries sent envoys to negotiate. The emperor did not like war killings and agreed to sign friendly relations agreements with other countries.
At this moment, the other party proposed that he would like to benefit the Qin and Jin Dynasties.
But where are the pampered princesses in the palace willing to marry away from home and country to a place where they don't know the future?
The emperor worried about this.
The "considerate" queen personally offered advice, "Your Majesty, there is a suitable candidate in the heart of the concubine."
"tell me the story."
"Princess Jiahe, the fifteenth year..."
Yu Zhiyi's life has undergone earth-shaking changes. First, a group of eunuchs and court ladies came, and then she received an imperial decree and gave her another magnificent bedroom.
Some suddenly seem like dreams, so unreal.
Even the father, who hadn't seen her for a long time, came to visit her personally, which made her flattered.
The people around me were thoughtful, but they didn't talk much, and they refused to say anything.
The queen personally sent her to study etiquette, but restrained her in the temple and could not communicate with other people.
Mother was very upset in her heart. It took a few days before she found the opportunity to inquire about her marriage. When she heard about the marriage, she suddenly became anxious, "Well, how can this be!"
The mother hurriedly returned to the palace, trying to tell Yu Zhiyi the news, but was told, "The Queen Empress invites Princess Jiahe to go over."
As soon as Yu Zhi arrived at the queen, he sent a lot of jewellery to him. Yu Zhiyi did not dare to accept it. "Manny, these things are too expensive, and Jiahe deserves it."
The queen smiled, "Hey, why do you say that. You are about to marry to Yan Kingdom and promote diplomatic relations between the two countries. These are all you deserve."
"Married? Yan Guo?"
Yu Zhi knew early in the morning that if something went wrong, there would be a demon, but he didn't expect to send her to a marriage! These people had made up their minds and didn't care about her thoughts at all.
Yu Zhi immediately knelt down and begged in horror, "Manny, please take me back and die!"
The queen was not moved at all, but showed a gentle and reasonable appearance, "Why does Princess Jiahe react like this? This is a good thing."
Yu Zhi shook his head, but no matter what she said, those people were indifferent.
The queen waved a big hand, "Come here, send Princess Jiahe back to the palace, without permission from the palace, you are not allowed to step out of the palace!"
Soon, the queen ordered someone to send a Chinese dress for marriage.
Yu Zhi refused and knocked over his clothes.
This word came to the Queen's ears, "This girl is kind of stubborn!"
The queen had a plan to make a living and beckoned to the maid beside her, "At that time..."
Yu Zhiyi woke up again, feeling his body bumped.
She opened her eyes in a daze, unable to see the foreground, and she only felt weak.
I don't know how long it has been, but it finally eased.
This is... and dear sedan chair!
She opened the curtain, and there was no way for her to escape.
She was trapped in a magnificent carriage with a maidservant guarding her day and night. "Princess, the maidservant advises you not to struggle and hurt yourself."
Yu Zhi was full of sorrow, thinking of going to another country to marry someone else, it is not too early to die, so as to avoid suffering in the future!
However, she promised that person, how could she be assured before he returned safely?
"Cuckoo-"
A weird sound came from a distance, and then dissipated.
Everyone didn't care, the little princess in the sedan chair grabbed the sharp hairpin tightly.
postscript
I heard that there was a valiant hussar general missing from the border, the reason is unknown, and various stories circulated in the end.
Sacrifice for the country, escape from battle, disappear mysteriously...
An embroidery workshop was built in a remote town far away from the imperial capital. The owner of the embroidery workshop was exquisite and never showed up in person.
"Boss Shi, my master liked the embroidery last time. I want to talk to this exquisite embroiderer. Can you introduce me?"
The man in the dark blue shirt called the "Boss of Time" slowly put down the tea cup in his hand and refused the request of others, saying: "My wife is suffering from illness and is inconvenient to go out to meet guests. Please forgive me."
The visitor sighed, and said, "My master still wants to customize a batch. Can you make it in half a month?"
Shi's boss said again: "My wife shouldn't work too much. The embroidery time is limited every day."
After the guests left, the boss pushed the door into the courtyard.
I saw the embroidered mother who "has a body inconvenience to meet guests" sitting under the lush trees in the courtyard, with red cheeks and autumn waves in her eyes.
As soon as he appeared, the beautiful embroiderer seemed to have a reaction, and looked up.
Seeing that it was him, Xiuniang immediately got up, and Jin Ling, who was tied around her waist, swayed.
When the boss was very excited, he waved to the woman, "One by one, come here."
The woman's voice was extremely clear, and she called out, "husband."
That brave young general...
He doesn't admire the dignitaries, he just wants to guard the one he loves and worry-free in this life.
The author has something to say: I originally wanted to write a bit miserable, but with the stroke of the pen, I couldn’t do anything about the life of the little princess or the relationship between the two. In the end, it became an easy and sweet article, a pair for life. people
