Glory all the way

Chapter 222 Coincidence
Entering the gazebo along the stone steps, Princess Qingcheng stretched out her hands to caress the carved pillars, looking back at the river surface wrinkled by the wind, the resentment in her eyes made people feel pity.

"Do you know why this place is called Broken Intestine Pavilion?"

Princess Qingcheng asked softly.

Bai Yingluo's eyes turned from the stone steps close to the water, she shook her head, "I've never heard of it from anyone."

Princess Qingcheng showed her face and smiled, and for a moment, Bai Yingluo felt that her face seemed to be a little brighter. Her smile was dazzlingly gorgeous.

One moment ago, there was still a lot of resentment, but the next moment, she could show such a beautiful smile. In this world, there is only Princess Qingcheng, right?

Bai Yingluo was secretly thinking about it, while Princess Qingcheng sat down on a chair, pointed to the other side and said to Bai Yingluo, "You are pregnant, sit down too."

"Thank you Princess for giving me your seat."

After walking for so long, Bai Yingluo was indeed tired, so she no longer refused, she took a few steps forward and sat at a place far away from Princess Qingcheng.

It was in the afternoon, and the sun was shining obliquely from the west, and the surface of the water seemed to be covered with a layer of broken gold, which was indescribably dazzling. From time to time, there were swimming fish swaying and sliding past, giving the silent little The lake adds a bit of interest.

On the other side of the stone steps, several little maids brought by Liusu, and the servants who followed Princess Qingcheng all stood quietly on the bank. The upside-down figure on the water looked like a deep-colored ink painting. .

Princess Qingcheng looked back at the sparkling water, and after a long time, she opened her mouth to speak, but she chatted in a normal way, "In summer, it's very comfortable to sit here, the cool wind is blowing, and the water vapor is blowing. There are little fish scrambling to chase after the fish food, and the whole pavilion seems to move accordingly, which is very interesting. Don’t you come here often?”

Bai Yingluo came here only once, and that was when she and Du Xuan went to see the entire Zhuangyuan Mansion together after they got married.

Not liking that depressing name, Bai Yingluo seldom came here. Apart from going for a walk in the backyard with Du Xuan every day, she spent most of her time by the swing next to the grape trellis, or by the swing that she and Du Xuan reclaimed. In a small field.

Shaking her head, Bai Yingluo said with a smile: "This place is too far away from Yixin Garden, and there are not many people in my family. I am the only one at home on weekdays, so I seldom travel so far to come here."

Nodding clearly, Princess Qingcheng asked again: "Is there a lot of rain this summer?"

The capital is no different than the south. Except for a few heavy rainstorms in summer, there is usually no rain at all, and this year is even worse. The number of rains in the whole summer can be counted on the fingers.

Bai Yingluo replied with a smile: "It didn't rain a few times, but it rained a few times after autumn, but it just wet the road."

"That's no wonder..."

Said softly, Princess Qingcheng sighed inaudibly, "Whenever it rains heavily, you will know why this place is called Broken Heart Pavilion."

After finishing speaking, Princess Qingcheng got up straight without saying hello, and walked back along the stone steps.

Bai Yingluo froze for a moment, got up and chased after her, dumbfounded.

This kind of Princess Qingcheng doesn't look like an adult woman at all, but like a casual girl who can do whatever comes to her mind without caring about the people around her.

On the way back, Princess Qingcheng walked forward along the stone path from the right.

On the side of the road is a line of willow trees that have long since dried up. In summer, the willows stretch out and hang down on the side of the road, which must be very pleasing to the eye.

Princess Qingcheng stopped from time to time, and even when she was walking, she walked very slowly, looking everywhere, sometimes as if she was recalling, and sometimes, as if she wanted to remember everything in front of her in her heart. Behind her, seeing that she seemed to be no stranger to every place, the weird feeling in her heart surfaced again.

There was an inexplicable sense of apprehension in her heart, but Bai Yingluo didn't know what she was worried about.

When she was approaching Yixin Garden, seeing Princess Qingcheng suddenly stopped in her tracks and turned her gaze to the swing frame which was slightly shaking by the wind, Bai Yingluo cried out inwardly that something was wrong.

Sure enough, Princess Qingcheng's tone turned a little cold for an instant, "The grape trellis and the swing stand, were you the ones who built them?"

"Yes, I'm lazy, and I don't want to go so far. I came out of the main house and walked through the corner door to get here, so I asked the gardener to build a grape trellis and a swing frame here."

Bai Yingluo replied while cautiously watching Princess Qingcheng's face.

"What a reckless waste. A good garden was destroyed by this grape trellis and swing frame."

With a bit of resentment on her face, Princess Qingcheng said sharply: "Immediately dismantle it for me, what it was like before, and how it will be restored to this palace..."

Halfway through speaking, a layer of sadness suddenly appeared in Princess Qingcheng's eyes.

She waved her hands in frustration, and she apologized with a wry smile, "I'm sorry, but this is now the Zhuangyuan's mansion, not the princess' mansion of my palace, but my palace's abruptness."

"They're all concubines, aren't they?"

Seeing that she didn't mention the matter of tearing down the grape trellis, Bai Yingluo also sued her.

The group continued to walk forward.

After passing through the corner gate, Princess Qingcheng frowned involuntarily when she saw the small open space that had been reclaimed. In the end, she still didn't say anything.

Back in the yard of Yixinyuan, Princess Qingcheng walked to the stone table under the tree and sat down, then picked up the handkerchief and wiped off her sweat. Bai Yingluo hurriedly ordered Liusu and Liuying to bring over the prepared tea and cakes placed on the table.

Except for this courtyard, the two of them had nothing to say. For a while, the courtyard became quiet. Bai Yingluo felt very embarrassed, and broke the silence by saying, "The princess is from the palace? The Crown Princess and Lin Fangfei How are you?"

The Crown Princess and Lin Zhimei are pregnant, and now they are the most important people in the palace besides Emperor Jiayuan, the Empress Dowager and the Empress, and Emperor Jiayuan and the Empress Dowager are something Bai Yingluo dare not ask about.

Princess Qingcheng replied calmly: "They did go to visit me, but I didn't see them. As for whether it's okay..."

After a pause, Princess Qingcheng said rather pitifully: "Women in the palace are always intriguing, not for the favor of men, but for the heirs next to them, okay, aren't they all like that?"

Bai Yingluo was complaining in her heart, but she couldn't answer anything for a while, so she had to greet her for a snack.

Princess Qingcheng ate a few mouthfuls to save face, took the handkerchief handed over by the maid, cleaned her hands, stood up and said: "I'm bothering you today."

He was planning to leave.

Feeling relieved, Bai Yingluo let out a long sigh of relief in her heart, but on the surface, she had to put on a look of persuasion. Princess Qingcheng felt compassionate at this moment, "You have a body, and I let you take me in the garden After walking around, let’s go back and rest.”

Saying that, Princess Qingcheng walked out, Bai Yingluo hurriedly followed, and politely sent her out.

As soon as he reached the gate, he heard a rush of horseshoes in the alley.

Bai Yingluo's heart beat uncontrollably.

In the next moment, Du Xuan's figure appeared at the gate.

Bai Yingluo clenched her hands and turned her head to look. Sure enough, Princess Qingcheng's complexion changed slightly, but she returned to normal after only a moment.

"Luo Niang, are there any guests at home?"

Showing her face and smiling, Du Xuan has not yet recognized that the woman in normal attire in front of her is Princess Qingcheng. Du Xuan only paid attention to her beautiful face, his eyes passed by, and he nodded politely and smiled.

On the side, the servant girl who was already beside Princess Qingcheng shouted sharply: "Bold, why don't you meet Princess Qingcheng?"

"pour……"

After murmuring a word, Du Xuan knelt down on the ground and kowtowed his head in amazement, "I have seen the princess, the princess is a thousand years old."

"Master Du, let's get down."

He cried out, and turned his eyes around him again. A faint smile appeared on Princess Qingcheng's lips. Although the smile was shallow, Bai Yingluo had been by her side for several hours, and she kept watching. They all had a cold face, even a light smile at this moment was enough to make her extremely nervous.

As for Du Xuan, after getting up, he walked over and stood beside Bai Yingluo, with his head lowered from beginning to end.

"Let's go..."

Looking back at the maid following behind her, Princess Qingcheng raised her feet and walked out. Du Xuan and Bai Yingluo sent them to the door, knelt down on the ground and said: "I'm an official/concubine to send the princess off."

The carriage gradually went away, Du Xuan got up, helped Bai Yingluo up, and asked with concern: "Luo Niang, are you okay?"

The panic in his eyes seemed to be afraid that Princess Qingcheng was here to find fault with Bai Yingluo.

Bai Yingluo shook her head with a smile, "Why did you come back so early? Are your godfather and godmother okay? Where's your elder sister and brother-in-law? The old patriarch of the Bai family, have you visited?"

The smile on his face grew a little bit, Du Xuan helped Bai Yingluo into the door, and said as he walked: "They are all well, and they complained that I shouldn't leave you alone at home. In the house of godfather and godmother After lunch, they sent me to say hello to the neighbors, and when I came out of the old patriarch's house, the godmother urged me to set off and come back."

As he said that, Du Xuan said happily: "Luo Niang, the godmother raised a lot of chickens in her yard, and she said that when you gave birth next year, she would send them to the mansion to make soup for you. I'm sure Baobi's mansion will start with the chickens." It’s good to buy it from Nong. No, she brought you a lot of things before I left.”

The things they brought were naturally produced in their own land. Although they were not worth much, they were valuable because of their affection. Bai Yingluo listened to him with a smile, and became happy from the inside out.

After returning to the house and lying on the warm Kang, Bai Yingluo suddenly felt sore and weak all over.

Du Xuan complained with some distress: "The princess is really unreasonable, knowing that you are pregnant, and let you take her to visit the garden."

As soon as the garden was mentioned, Bai Yingluo thought of the Heartbroken Pavilion and the grape trellis, and told Du Xuan as if it were a funny story, but he showed a thoughtful expression.

"what happened?"

Bai Yingluo grabbed his hand and asked.

"Didn't Princess Qingcheng mention the rain? The lake next to the pavilion is very deep, but the stone steps are close to the water surface. If it rains heavily in summer and the water level rises, wouldn't the stone steps be submerged?" In the water?"

Du Xuan imagined the scene after the rain.

Without the stone steps, the pavilion was left alone on the other side of the lake, looking at each other like a Cowherd and Weaver Girl, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is heartbroken.

"The Heartbroken Pavilion..."

While muttering, Bai Yingluo seemed to understand something in her heart.

　Week is here, my dears, be happy~~~
