Chapter 40:

Unexpectedly, Huiming would suddenly touch her. Su Jin's body was suddenly stiff. It was clear that Huiming was holding her arm, but it seemed as if a hot wave of heat rushed into her head, although her ears Zhong heard her clearly and couldn't even realize what she said for a while.
Until Huiming sensed Su Gonggong's silence and realized his impoliteness, he quickly let go and took a step back. After a pause, he still called out, "Su Gonggong."
The tightly grasped arm suddenly loosened, Su Jin came back to her senses and turned her back in a bit of sorrow. She pressed the place Huiming had grasped tightly on her body, and lowered her head carefully to look close at hand. The person who answered in a low voice: "Yeah."
The reaction of Su Gonggong who didn't say a word before made Huiming only feel that he was too rude. It was only then that he was relieved to see that he had agreed. He just thought of the fate of Su Gonggong's untimely death in his previous life. , His expression still became more solemn, and he said, "There is nothing more important than living well. Only when the father-in-law lives well in the future, everything will have hope, right?"
Huiming had never spoken to him so solemnly. Su Jin listened quietly. She wanted to agree, but after opening her mouth, her voice was so hard that she could hardly make a sound.
Only if he is gone, is there really nothing left. Does anyone have any hope when they are alive?
Su Jin lowered her eyes, but what is the use of him alive? The dignified and hereditary Zhen Guo Gong Mansion, now he is the only eunuch, and he has exhausted his mind to get the "dignity" of being a slave to the enemy in front of the enemy all day long, losing the face of his ancestors. Is this also called alive? Also called expect?
Su Jin raised the corner of his mouth bitterly. He waited for the prince to "died out of illness." He decisively used his majesty's guilt to climb to the front of the imperial court, and never thought of his own life, royal, seized the throne for thousands of years. , How many family dignitaries have been swallowed clean in such a whirlpool, not to mention he is now a servant? As early as when he stepped into this muddy water, he knew that no matter what the outcome was, he himself was destined to not end well.
If he fights for his life, he can repay his Su Family’s 163 people’s hatred of destroying the door, it is naturally a fluke. If he fights for his life, he can’t, his life is just as bad as bad. The grass and mustard, scattered silently, should also be burned to ashes like ordinary palace people, and poured into the dry well, it is his fate.
It’s just that, at this moment, looking at Huiming’s thorough gaze that seems to be able to see to the bottom, Su Jin realized that she could not really speak the words of rejection. His heart was as if he fell into a bottomless abyss, but his face was only exposed. A gentle smile came: "What you said is."
Grandpa Su’s attitude was as gentle as a spring breeze across his cheeks, and Huiming couldn’t help but slowly relax, and suddenly felt that he had said this without beginning and ending, even It was a bit unreasonable to still hold Su Gong's arm, and he lowered his head embarrassedly: "I'm rude, father-in-law."
"Why?" Su Jin's expression softened. Seeing that Huiming had nothing to say, she was very empathetic and took a step back: "It's not early, I will ask someone to send you some hot water. , You rest earlier."
"Yes, Grandpa Su also cleaned up earlier."
When she left the door, Su Jin stood at the door and stopped, her left hand couldn't help holding the forearm that had just been grasped, and her fingertips lightly rubbed, as if there was some warmth she had touched just now, burning him. It's tingling, it seems a little itchy, but it makes people reluctant to let go.
If he continues like this, he is afraid that he will really reluctant to die, Su Jin tightly clutches the warmth, as if he will be blown clean by the cold wind just a little bit.
Staying with Huiming like this, what revenge and redress, what the reputation of the town’s government office is innocent, he is afraid to put it all behind him, as long as he can stay with Huiming like this and watch it all the time. Watching her, listening to her, I am afraid that he will really desperate, just like this, and live by her for a lifetime...
However, if you really live like that, I'm afraid Huiming should feel troubled, right?
Leaving Huiming's side, Su Jin's shaky emotions gradually calmed down, and in the end, it was only as hard as an ice stone.
He has always been very self-aware and understands that his affection for Huiming is almost paranoid. If he does not know that he will not end well, if he lives like this in the future, I am afraid that one day, one day he will be unable to control it. I was dissatisfied with watching from a distance on one side, until I couldn't help but stretched out my hand to entangle her until it ruined her.
That’s not going to happen. Su Jin’s eyes darker, why bother, Huiming’s clean girl’s house, home with parents, relatives and friends, and a person like him who has fallen into the quagmire. Did Huiming launch it together?
Only Huiming was his only clean piece of land. He hoped that his liking was to make Huiming live well and make her happy, rather than wishful thinking, and she was exhausted and tired.
Su Jin stepped down the steps, as if leaving the warmth behind him, step by step towards the dark and cold outside the house.
—
Seeing Su Gonggong going out, Hui Ming suppressed his worries on the way, and only turned to the east bedroom.
The bedroom is transparent from the north to the south, and on the east end is a nanmu canopy bed with two small stools underneath, and a long table on the other side. On the table is some inkstone pen grids and water-weight paperweights. The solid-color jade is the main one, looking refreshing, not complicated, there is no seat, only a long couch for the concubine Xiang is placed under the window.
Although the furnishings are simple, the details are extraordinarily delicate. The small window strips are decorated with the Ru Kiln Qinglian Shallow Mouth Altar. Inside the altar are several thumb-sized bright red koi carps, and the crane nine-turn bronze flower on the bedside There are two plum blossoms in Zun Yingying, the corner of the wall is a smoker with tangled branches and hollow green leaves, and a set of nine-nine cold-eliminating pictures is hung upright on the wall, which has been painted for more than ten days. , And there is even an embroidery shed that she has made half of it.
Compared with the wealth of the main hall, this dormitory looks casual and warm, unlike the appearance of people who live today. The upside-down Buddha is the owner who has lived for a long time. Today is just a return from a long absence.
Huiming pursed her lips, and gently touched the folded cuiyun brocade tent that was hung up to her liking under her hand. She spent almost two lifetimes in the palace, although she never lost food, clothing and shelter, and even later became After the imperial head of the female officer, she also monopolized a small courtyard in the western office.
But Huiming always knew clearly that it was just a temporary residence. It was just a place to rest for the service. It did not belong to her. She lived in those places, and it was never like this small one. The dormitory belongs to her, and it is arranged according to her heart. All this only gave her an unspeakable taste, as if... it seemed to have her own home?
Huiming shook his head, concealing his inexplicable delusion, only rolled up his sleeves and neatly cleaned up the bedding.
Grandpa Su and her are both palace members, so naturally it is not easy to blatantly transfer from the palace to the palace to serve. The first few yen treasures told her that Grandpa Su had taken in this house for some time. If you don't go down, there are no relatives or friends outside the palace to take in old people who can rely on. On weekdays, you can slowly do some housekeeping and sweeping work. There should be a place to stay.
For this reason, I don't have to go to the rough work of water and fire. Huiming washed properly, blew out the candles, and lay on the bed thinking of Grandpa Su. After tossing and turning for a while, he slowly fell asleep.
It was Su Gonggong who arranged everything in this dormitory carefully and properly. Although it was the first night, Huiming slept very securely. Waiting for her to wake up at the same time in the past, she packed up and thought about going with When Grandpa Su said hello, it was only Yuanbao who learned that Grandpa Su had gone for about a quarter of an hour, and ordered her to prepare breakfast before leaving.
When Huiming heard the words, he bowed his head and settled, and he immediately remembered that this was the day of the Great Dynasty Meeting. As the royal governor, Su Gonggong did have to enter the palace earlier today, and it was her fault that he was only a dozen days away from the royal court. , I forgot to clean it!
Huiming regretted a little bit, so he only secretly recorded the time when Su Gong-gong got up, determined to get up and eat together with Su Gong-gong in the palace in the future, and also thought that if he could return earlier today, he would definitely do it earlier. Grandpa Su prepared dinner and used it together, so he could talk.
But it was too late today, and Hui Ming had to spend half a bowl of congee on his own, and hurriedly entered the palace.
Huiming entered the palace early in the morning when the Concubine Kang got up. Although the concubine only regarded her as an idler, Huiming had not acted frivolously in this palace for decades, and she was really idle without others. With a messy temperament, the master thought that she couldn't interfere, but since next year she was given her personal errand lady, even if she didn't give an errand, she still waited on time, never neglecting it.
Waiting for Concubine Kang to stop eating, Huiming went back to Jingfangzhai again when he was free. Just when he reached the door, he saw Mother Wang greet her anxiously, pulling her in a hurry. Said: "Oh, it's coming. Go and persuade you. Your Highness hasn't seen you. This morning, I just refused to get up. I didn't want to take a sip of water and didn't move a bit!"
Hearing Mother Wang's words, Hui Ming was stunned for a moment, and he immediately understood the reason.
Although his temperament is different from ordinary people, he is most accustomed to respecting time and order. As long as there are no obstacles, his daily food, clothing, shelter, transportation, daily life will be carried out according to a fixed hour, and the people around him are also served. In general, it’s best to show up regularly according to the habit of the little majesty. If there is something to do or take a break, don’t let the little majesty never pay attention to others. She also needs to report to the little majesty in advance. If not, the next day will be In the details of his actions, he could see that His Highness was displeased, and because he didn't say anything, he just held it in his heart, which was actually even more uncomfortable.
And because Huiming, Su Gonggong sent a chess board and a chess book to Jingfangzhai the day before yesterday, the little majesty has been in this black and white circle for several days, plus Huiming yesterday because of Yugan’s words , I only remembered Grandpa Su, and when he left the palace yesterday, he did not deliberately leave the palace to say goodbye, explaining clearly why he was absent for most of the day.
Huiming shook his heart secretly, and then he agreed, and then moved to the side. When he entered the door, he was still thinking about how to make the little majesty happy. He really looked up and saw the little majesty on the bed. At that time, it was actually taken aback.
Her original fox fur, although the mother Wang was seriously ill, first used it to keep her warm, but with her temperament, how could she be willing to use something like this? He only waited for his body to get better, then cleaned it up, and laid it on the bed of the little majesty.
The charcoal fire in Jingfangzhai has never been missing since Su Gonggong’s care, the room is not too cold, and the bedding is warm, now the little majesty is a thin plain shirt, a little wronged, sitting on his knees On the white and snowy fox fur, his hair was not combed. Fortunately, the little majesty's sleeping face was always honest and not messy. He only hung smoothly on the fox fur, and the black hair and white fur set off each other.
The small one looked up in the morning, only red lips and white teeth, black hair like a waterfall, because it looked so beautiful, it was just like the white fox fur beneath it.
