The setting sun sinks to under the palatial city wall, after King Su's Mansion the dwelling, Xu Buling changed the clean clothes robe, stands in the corridor the peaceful waiting. 落日沉入巍峨城墙之下,肃王府后宅,许不令换上了干净的衣袍,站在廊道里安静等待。 Just now falls in the water, male others do not have so many art, nothing but trades the matter of set of clothes, but the woman obviously is more troublesome. 方才落了水,男人家没那么多讲究,无非换套衣裳的事儿,可妇人家显然要麻烦许多。 Madam Lu skirt wet most probably, hair worn in a bun moistened the makeup to allow also to spend, must trade inside and outside, weather cold reason, but must take a hot bath to avoid catching cold. 陆夫人裙子湿了大半,发髻打湿妆容也花了,里里外外都得换,天气冷的缘故,还得洗个热水澡避免着凉。 Maidservant Yue ran to bring the winter skirt, one group of child maidservants also with, the light bathed with the thing installed several trays. The cauldron that supports sent the use, heated cauldron hot water, the maidservant passed in and out in the west room, takes care of Madam Lu to bathe to change clothes, a makeup to comb the hair. 月奴跑回去取来了冬裙,一帮子丫鬟也跟了过来,光是沐浴用的物件都装了好几个托盘。支起的大锅派上了用处,重新烧了一大锅热水,丫鬟在西厢房里进进出出,服侍陆夫人沐浴更衣、点妆梳头。 The etiquette begins in the clothes, the female of aristocratic family large clan to the clothing appearance is tasteful, one set tosses about on the double-hour, in the winter the sun is short, the day also gradually gets dark. After Maidservant Yue inquired one, then after bringing two maidservants were going , the kitchen in dwelling, preparation evening's meals. 礼仪始于正衣冠,世家大族的女子对着装外貌最是讲究,一套折腾下来就个把时辰,冬天日头短,天也逐渐黑了下来。月奴询问一声后,便带着两个丫鬟去了后宅的厨房,准备晚上的膳食。 Before so long as Xu Buling in, Madam Lu, even if bathing time, talking over that can also keep spoke some innermost thoughts, today is to after actually fall in the water, then has not said a word again, when bathed continually did not have to bring many water splash sounds, softly, peaceful was a little strange. 以前只要许不令在跟前,陆夫人哪怕是沐浴的时候,也会不停的念叨说些心里话,今天却是落水之后,便没有再发一言,连沐浴时都没带起多少水花声,轻手轻脚,安静的有点诡异。 Xu Buling is not good to run up to the bath barrel to inquire, has obediently and honestly is waiting in the corridor, from time to time lifts the hand to stroke gently several, meaning is inexplicable. 许不令自是不好跑到浴桶边询问,只得老老实实的在廊道里等着,时而抬起手摩挲几下,意味莫名。 Crash-bang — 哗啦— The water splash sound resounds from the west building. 水花声自西厢响起。 Xu Buling looks askance to look, on window paper that the lights cast light upon, the female silhouette reflects above, just had/left the bath barrel, the maidservant with towel cleaning, the peaks and ridges certainly show appear and disappear from time to time, the red cherry stood with the summit, the shadow on window paper trembles two, the gravity as if lost the function. 许不令侧目看去,灯火照映的窗纸上,女子侧影映在上面,刚出浴桶,丫鬟用毛巾擦拭,峰峦绝秀时隐时现,红樱立与山巅,窗纸上的影子微颤了两下,重力似乎都失去了作用。 Xu Buling transferred the vision hastily, talked over two ‚discourteously not to regard secretly......’. 许不令连忙转开了目光,暗暗念叨了两句‘非礼勿视……’。 Slightly, the door opens in ‚’ sound. 稍许,房门在‘吱呀’声中打开。 Madam Lu wears the fine silks long skirt, on the shoulder brings the warm color shawl, just had/left the bath, the cheeks still brings several points of moisture, rich and smooth such as the warm jade, such as that fresh and beautiful is then moving. The long hair wet plate has not gotten up, hangs loose is conducting the back, the winter slightly cool night wind has swept, a pair sweeps the beautiful woman slightly to be pressed pale. 陆夫人身着绫罗长裙,肩上带着暖色披肩,刚刚出浴,脸颊尚带着几分水气,丰润如暖玉,便如那出水芙蓉般动人。长发湿漉漉的尚未盘起,披散在背上,冬日微凉夜风扫过,一双淡扫娥眉不禁微微蹙起。 Nearby the Xu Buling half step arrives, to select the body to block the night wind high, said with a smile lightly: 许不令快步走到跟前,以高挑身躯挡住夜风,轻笑道: „Aunt Lu, the outside weather is cold, be careful catches cold, enters the room.” “陆姨,外面天气冷,当心着凉,进屋吧。” „Um~” “嗯~” The Madam Lu expression was solemn, swept Xu Buling one, then tightened the shawl on shoulder, gradually the trend is burning the room of warming stove. 陆夫人表情端庄宁静,扫了许不令一眼,便紧了紧肩上的披肩,缓步走向烧着暖炉的房间。 After ‚iron saucepan cooks itself’ the interlude, Madam Lu calms down probably, the hidden bitterness between foreheads disappears, was equally mild like the past like the water, walked the supple sound said: 经过‘铁锅炖自己’的插曲,陆夫人好像消了气,眉宇间的幽怨不见了,如同往日一样温润如水,行走间柔声道: „Buling, I have not blamed your meaning. This time was unable to recover, is good because of being only two poetry, but also does not affect the general situation, in the future must be careful is......” “不令,我没有责怪你的意思。这次已经无法补救,好在只是两首诗词,还不至于影响大局,日后要当心才是……” „Aunt Lu felt relieved, I......” “陆姨放心,我……” „What heart do I put?” “我放个什么心？” Madam Lu heard this saying air/Qi, resembles cast aside Xu Buling one that resentful as was angry: „Yourself know that the discretion is good, acts unreasonably again, when which day even I could not protect you, you ran up to front of me to cry uselessly, we passed away in Chang'an City together.” 陆夫人听见这话就来气,似怨似嗔的撇了许不令一眼:“你自己知道分寸就好,再乱来,等哪天连我都护不住你了,你跑到我面前哭鼻子都没用,咱们就一起在长安城老死得了。” Xu Buling smiles embarrasedly: „So long as Aunt Lu in, does return the Suzhou city not to matter.” 许不令讪讪一笑:“只要陆姨在跟前,回不回肃州城都无所谓。” Happy does not think austere. 乐不思肃。 Madam Lu stared the pupil ill-humoredly, the expression was actually warm, no longer taught Xu Buling. 陆夫人没好气的瞪了瞪眸子,表情倒是暖了许多,不再教训许不令。 Two people enter the warm room, Madam Lu under the table is implicated, lifts the hand to pull one bunch of beautiful hair: „Buling, brings to me the comb.” 两人进入暖和的房间,陆夫人在桌旁坐下,抬手挽起一束秀发:“不令,把梳子给我取来。” Xu Buling brings the wooden comb from the room, sat in the Madam Lu back directly, since lifted the hand to comb the wet long hair. 许不令从屋里取来木制梳子,直接坐在了陆夫人的背后,抬手梳起了湿漉漉的长发。 „—......” “诶—……” Madam Lu body one stiff, the body several points had not very moved heedlessly, want to open the mouth to stop, but the red lip opens, finally stopped, straight sitting on stool. 陆夫人身体一僵,身子挺了几分没有乱动,本想开口制止,只是红唇微启,最后还是停下了,端端正正的坐在凳子上。 The long hair is quite mild-mannered, light dark greets the nostrils fragrant. 长发极为柔顺,淡淡暗香扑鼻。 Xu Buling is combing hair earnestly: „Rumor too big, I was recently honest in Imperial College am staying, waited for the wind sound/rumor to go out in the past again......” 许不令认真梳着头发:“最近风声太大,我就老实在国子监呆着,等风声过去再出门……” Madam Lu was light ‚un’, thinks, the sound took for several points to read broken: „Has Young Lady Song to accompany in Imperial College, I am feel relieved......” 陆夫人淡淡‘嗯’了一声,想了想,声音又带上了几分碎碎念:“在国子监有松姑娘陪着,我自是放心……” How to start! 怎么又开始啦！ A Xu Buling parade is big, actually does not dare the tone to be excessive, is only the shaking the head chuckle: „I and junction of Song Yufu nobleman, if there is idea to her, first brings to make Aunt Lu give advice, how to be hiding the truth from Aunt Lu......” 许不令一阵头大,却也不敢语气过重,只是摇头轻笑:“我和松玉芙君子之交,若是对她有想法,也先带过来让陆姨参谋参谋,岂会瞒着陆姨……” Madam Lu is doubtful, the vision has swept the table, looked to the above two wine pots: „This liquor is good, buys in Sun Family Store?” 陆夫人半信半疑,目光扫过桌案,又看向了上面的两个酒坛:“这酒不错,在孙家铺子买的？” Asked something already known, wrapped the silk of wine pot is Jiangnan presents tribute, only then the imperial family can use, how possibly to buy in Sun Family Store. 明知故问,包裹酒坛的丝绸是江南进贡的,只有皇家能使用,怎么可能是在孙家铺子买的。 Xu Buling had not naturally been swindled, reply of obediently and honestly: „Last night Empress Dowager invited me to enter the palace to eat meal, before Empress Dowager just before leaving, delivered.” 许不令自然没有上当,老老实实的回答:“昨夜太后邀我进宫吃饭,太后临行前送的。” Madam Lu ‚Oh~’: „Last night ate meal, several people?” 陆夫人‘哦~’了一声:“昨晚吃饭的时候,几个人啦？” Xu Buling thoughts racing, including saying with a smile: „On Empress Dowager and several palace maids, general that the vegetable/dish fries, but also does not have Aunt Lu to do delicious......” 许不令心思急转,含笑道:“就太后和几个宫女,菜炒的一般,还没陆姨做的好吃……” Madam Lu pursed the lips to smile, lifted the hand to bring to smell a wine pot, the sound was supple: 陆夫人抿嘴笑了下,抬手将一个酒坛拿过来闻了闻,声音柔婉: „Delivers such good liquor, Empress Dowager wants to come to chat with you are very happy?” “送这么好的酒,太后想来和你聊的很开心吧？” Xu Buling is pulling hair, helpless shakes the head: „Empress Dowager asked that I can compose a poem, have the confession of Aunt Lu before, I will not write, only eats meal does not speak......” 许不令挽着头发,无奈摇头:“太后问我会不会写诗,有陆姨的交代在前,我自是不会写,只吃饭不说话……” Madam Lu narrows the eye slightly: „In the past Empress Dowager entered the palace, altogether prepared three altar/jar nice wines, a altar/jar was taken away to spoil by Xiao Ting. The remaining two altar/jar liquor gave you, words that your anything has not spoken, but is really natural enough.” 陆夫人微微眯眼:“当年太后进宫,一共就备了三坛好酒,一坛被萧庭拿去糟蹋了。剩下的两坛酒都给了你,你什么都没说的话,可真够大方的。” Xu Buling frowns slightly: „Yes? I have really not known this, but my truly anything had not said last night, just before leaving first Empress Dowager must, me unable to shirk, then accepted. Oh...... reached an agreement will not write poetry, finally made this matter, these two altar/jar liquor must find a time also to go back......” 许不令微微蹙眉:“是嘛？我还真不知道这个,不过昨晚我确实什么都没说,临走前太后非要给,我推脱不掉,便收下了。唉……说好了不会作诗,结果闹出这事儿,这两坛酒得找个时间还回去……” „Why?” “凭什么？” Madam Lu hears this saying, immediately is not glad: „In the past I got married, has not seen her to deliver this, delivered delivered, the boldness did not have, but also worked as what elder.” 陆夫人听见这话,顿时不乐意了:“当年我成婚的时候,都没见她送这个,送都送了,一点魄力没有,还当什么长辈。” Xu Buling complexion one stiff: „I said that will not write the poetry, this liquor it is too much......” 许不令脸色一僵:“我说了不会写诗词,这酒受之有愧……” „Since it is too much, why does need to accept last night?” “既然受之有愧,昨晚为什么要收下？” „......” “……” Xu Buling had nothing to say in reply, the liquor insect caused trouble, he will truly not write the poetry to accept confidently, who knows that Song Yufu handed over sells him. 许不令无言以对,酒虫作祟,他确实不会写诗词才坦然收下,谁知道松玉芙转手就把他卖了。 Madam Lu sees Xu Buling unable to speak, light snort/hum: „Empress Dowager will not drink, hides is also wasting. You received received, went back you to deceive her again solid, furthermore deceived deceived, how she can also drop you......” 陆夫人见许不令说不出话来,淡淡哼了一声:“太后又不会喝酒,藏着也是浪费。你收都收了,再还回去岂不是坐实了你骗她,再者骗就骗了,她还能把你怎么滴……” A Xu Buling complexion pain: „If Empress Dowager looks for me......” 许不令脸色一苦:“要是太后找上我……” „The calamity that yourself rush, oneself try to find the solution, the liquor does not permit also to go back in any case, really without the means that hiding Empress Dowager is being, she has no way to send people to catch you to enter the palace...... and other years later you leave Beijing smoothly, she had no alternative.” “你自己闯的祸,自己想办法,反正酒不准还回去,实在没办法,躲着太后便是,她又没法派人抓你进宫……等两年后你顺利离京,她就无可奈何了。” „...... Two years......” “……两年……” „What's wrong? You also want to run toward the palace, what fun inadequate does inside have?” “怎么？你还想往宫里跑,里面有什么好玩的不成？” „No, one group of child boudoir embittered wives, with female wolf, go on the whole body not comfortably......” “没有,一帮子深闺怨妇,跟母狼似的,进去就浑身不自在……” „How can so say Empress Dowager was not...... and I chats was good, may probably say to the bystander not......” “怎么能这般说太后的不是……和我聊聊就行了,可莫要对外人说……” „...... ” “……嗯。” Frequents each other, idle talk daily family activity. 你来我往,闲话家常。 The Madam Lu complexion slowly restored the past appearance, after plate good hair, under the table is implicated. 陆夫人的脸色慢慢恢复了往日模样,盘好头发后,在桌子旁坐下。 After Maidservant Yue and maidservant carry the assorted food to enter the room places on the table, then goes out to close the windows and doors, avoids the cold air passing in the room. 月奴和丫鬟端着各色菜肴进屋放在桌上后,便出去关上了门窗,避免寒气透进屋里。 Xu Buling was a little truly hungry, took two wine glasses to place on the table, has not loved dearly Empress Dowager to hide ten years of good wine, direct open/unseal filled the wine glass to Madam Lu. 许不令确实有点饿了,取了两只酒杯放在桌上,也没心疼太后藏了十年的佳酿,直接开封给陆夫人斟满了酒杯。 Madam Lu usually does not drink, but the matter are too many today, unavoidably is somewhat disturbed, in addition the origin of this liquor is uncommon, then has not rejected. 陆夫人平日不怎么喝酒,不过今天发生的事儿太多,难免有些心绪不宁,加上这酒的来历不凡,便也没有拒绝。 Liquor fluid cool like spring, rich wine then such as graceful bearing beautiful woman, refreshing. 酒液清凉如泉,浓郁酒香便如风韵美人,沁人心脾。 Madam Lu carried the wine glass slightly to sip one, breaking the jade burnt the entrance to be very supple, after into abdomen, can feel that had/left that white liquor fierce vigor, passed all the limbs and bones. 陆夫人端起酒杯小抿了一口,断玉烧入口很柔,待入腹后才能感觉出那股烧刀子般的烈劲儿,直透四肢百骸。 „—” “呜—” Madam Lu swallows was somewhat anxious, the sleeve covered up the lip, the cheeks then caught blushing quickly. The beautiful women were tight, breathed two, obviously choked somewhat uncomfortable. 陆夫人咽的有些急了,袖子掩住嘴唇,脸颊很快便染上了红晕。娥眉紧蹙,呼吸了两口,显然呛的有些难受。 Xu Buling definitely does not dare to tease, was busy at clamping a chopsticks winter bamboo shoot, delivered to near the Madam Lu lip: „This liquor is fierce, I cannot shoulder, eats a vegetable/dish to press.” 许不令肯定不敢取笑,忙夹了一筷子冬笋,送到陆夫人唇边:“这酒烈,我都扛不住,吃口菜压一压。” The Madam Lu double pupil mist was misty, looked at front chopsticks, about looked at the eye, after four no one, the opens the mouth contained the winter bamboo shoot, chewed carefully. 陆夫人双眸水雾蒙蒙,看了看面前的筷子,左右瞄了眼,四下无人后,才张口含住了冬笋,细嚼慢咽。 Xu Buling filled the wine glass, then the selfish big mouth drinks to eat the vegetable/dish. 许不令重新斟满了酒杯,便自顾自的大口喝酒吃菜。 The aristocratic family juniors were taught since childhood ‚food did not say the bedroom not to speak’, each other clinked glasses to chat on the table is not possible. 世家子弟从小被教导‘食不言寝不语’,彼此在桌上碰杯拉家常是不可能的。 The Madam Lu table manners are very refined, the vision always places Xu Buling body, occasionally will also clamp two chopsticks vegetables/dishes to put in the Xu Buling bowl. 陆夫人吃相很斯文,目光始终放在许不令身上,偶尔也会夹两筷子菜放到许不令碗里。 The dim light of night is deep gradually, big table food gradually was eliminated cleanly by Xu Buling. 夜色渐深,一大桌子菜肴逐渐被许不令消灭干净。 Madam Lu extremely potency of alcohol, feared that a Xu Buling person drinks alone senselessly, drank several cups. 陆夫人不胜酒力,又怕许不令一个人独饮无趣,前后喝了好几杯。 Breaking the jade burns is not the common low rice wine, the latter vigor is enormous, when Madam Lu detects, could not have shouldered dizzy, not making a sound then lay on the table, the double cheek had one's face flushed with drink red, the breath fell asleep steadily. 断玉烧不是寻常低度米酒,后劲儿极大,等陆夫人察觉之时,已经晕晕乎乎扛不住了,不声不响的便趴在了桌上,双颊酡红,呼吸平稳的睡着了。 After Xu Buling eats to the full, puts down the tableware, the leaning head sizes up several, lifted the hand to shake the shoulder of Madam Lu: 许不令吃饱后放下碗筷,偏头打量几眼,抬手晃了晃陆夫人的肩膀: „Aunt Lu?......” “陆姨？……” „...... Un......” “……嗯……” Vague light nan, has not woken up, but tightened the body shawl. 若有若无的轻喃,没有醒来,只是紧了紧身上的披肩。 Xu Buling shook the head to smile , the bending down arm was curved across the leg of Madam Lu, holds the back, made an effort slightly, then held Madam Lu horizontally. skirt hem scatters, the embroidered shoes sway. 许不令摇头笑了下,俯身胳膊穿过陆夫人的腿弯,一首托着后背,微微用力,便将陆夫人横抱了起来。裙摆撒下,绣鞋晃晃荡荡。 „Wū - -” “呜——” Madam Lu by the Xu Buling arm, resembles to awake, partly narrowed the pupil to look at one, after seeing was Xu Buling, closed, hand grabbed Xu Buling the front piece, rested. 陆夫人靠在许不令胳膊上,似醒非醒,半眯着眸子瞄了一眼,见是许不令后,又闭上了,手儿抓着许不令了衣襟,又睡了过去。 The soft jade in the bosom, Xu Buling thought over subconsciously , the meat long cannot see fat in this/should long place, this hugs to feel that has a little component. 软玉在怀,许不令下意识掂量了下,肉都长在该长的地方看不出胖,这抱起来才能感觉出有点份量。 Before Xu Buling arriving curtain softly, is lying low putting down Madam Lu, partly squats is gripping to embroider the palace shoes of flower petal to take down gently, lagged behind the white cotton socks. 许不令轻手轻脚的走到幔帐之前,把陆夫人平躺着放下,半蹲着握住绣着花瓣的宫鞋轻柔取了下来,又拉下了白色布袜。 „Um~” “嗯~” Madam Lu has not regained consciousness, but exquisite pure white instep obvious bending, bows slightly, resembles wants to retract under skirt hem the foot. 陆夫人没有苏醒,不过细腻洁白的脚背明显的弓了下,稍稍屈膝,似是想把脚缩回裙摆下。 Xu Buling follows a set pattern, takes down another embroidered shoes, neat place ground. Set out to extend by binding belt of lined jacket skirt the hand, but responded immediately, hand in midair. 许不令如法炮制,把另一只绣鞋取了下来,整齐的放在地上。起身把手伸到了袄裙的系带旁,不过马上就反应过来,手顿在了半空。 „......” “……” Xu Buling blinks, looks down sleeping soundly unwatchful Aunt Lu, in the eye obviously flashes through one to intertwine. 许不令眨了眨眼睛,低头看着熟睡毫无戒备的陆姨,眼中明显闪过一丝纠结。 The slightly silent moment, the gate outside heard the knock: 稍微沉默片刻,门外便传来了敲门声: „Madame?” “夫人？” Xu Buling afraid receives to reach behind the back, patted on own face under: „Is insane insanely......” then opens the bedding, solid, the armpit good bedding that Madam Lu covers, to walk quickly...... 许不令心虚的收回手,在自己脸上轻拍了下:“失心疯啊……”然后拉开被褥,把陆夫人盖的严严实实,腋好被褥,快步走了出去…… Quiet at dead of night. 夜深人静。 Also has not known how long, the maidservant took away the tableware, in the room is thoroughly peaceful. 也不知过了多久,丫鬟收走了餐具,屋里彻底安静下来。 Among the curtains, Madam Lu wakes spookily, stands up from failure, leans to, taking advantage of the vague moonlight, spread out bosom fine writing paper, is sizing up the above handwriting, looked very lost...... 幔帐之间,陆夫人幽幽醒了过来,翻了个身,面向里侧,借着若有若无的月光,摊开了怀里的一张宣纸,打量着上面的字迹,看的十分出神……
