Quiet garden, sleeping pavilion.
Fu Tiaoping retreated Ling'er and all the maids, and there were only two of them left in the big room. Man Tian turned his back and stood in front of the window, a little nervous. After a year, she still couldn't escape this test after all. As a wife, this is her duty, and there is nothing wrong with it, but she... Alas! She exhaled lightly, raised her eyes and looked into the distance, there was a crescent moon in the sky outside the window, and a little bit of silver light poured down, covering the dense night with a thin layer of quiet light, but she had no intention of admiring it.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Fu Tuo looked at the woman in white clothes dyed with moonlight by the window, like a fairy in the misty realm, even the moonlight became her embellishment and foil, making people want to touch her truth. The slender body seemed to be painted with soft and beautiful lines, exuding a quiet but thrilling beauty, attracting him to approach involuntarily. He couldn't help but imagine her expression at the moment, her lips were probably pursed, the corners of her mouth were slightly turned up, with a trace of indifference and coolness that had been through the vicissitudes of life; Sorrow is hidden; her eyes are as foggy as fog, but as clear as a spring, and she should be looking at the distant sky at this moment, with hesitation and struggle, "
All over the sky heard footsteps coming from behind, afraid of disturbing the quiet night, it was very light and slow. The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and her body tensed up. When a hand touched her shoulder, she trembled, and Chang Gui's cold smile at the corner of her mouth froze completely, unable to draw the slightest arc anymore.
Fu Tzu held her shoulders with both hands. Her body was thinner than he imagined, so thin that it made people feel sorry for her. He felt the stiffness of her body, paused his hand slightly, lowered his head and whispered softly in her ear: "Rong Le."
Before he finished speaking, Man Tian suddenly turned around, took two steps back, and bumped his body against the window lattice. Countless thoughts were spinning in his mind, but he couldn't find a suitable reason as an excuse...
"General, I... Before she could speak, his fingers quickly touched her lips. Bo Chou tilted his head, leaned over, smiled very softly, looked into her eyes tightly, and said softly: "Rong Le, Don't make excuses...let alone say you're inconvenient. It's been more than a year, how long do you have to wait before you are ready? "
Startled all over the sky, he saw her clearly. She bit her lower lip lightly, pushed away his hand, moved her body to the side, coughed lightly, and said, "I'm going to take a bath." She could only leave the room first.
Fu Zhao was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Didn't you take a bath after dinner?"
Man Tian's eyes flashed, but her face was extremely calm. She reluctantly pulled the corner of her lips, and said with a faint smile: "It's too hot, and I was sweating again when I was in Qingyou Garden just now. I... can't sleep if I sweat, General ... just rest first." After she finished speaking, without waiting for his reaction, she turned around and strode out the door.
Looking at the back of her eager to leave, the smile on his lips deepened, and he murmured softly: "Rong Le, you are always as calm as you, do you get nervous sometimes? Take a bath? Okay, I'll wait for you right here .” He seemed to be sitting at the table leisurely, but there was joy in his heart that even he didn’t understand. Called out: "Come here, make a pot of tea."
The girl in the outer garden made tea in response, poured a cup, handed it to him, and then stepped aside. Bo Chou picked up the cup and took a sip, the mouthfeel was full of fragrance, refreshing, it is the best West Lake Longjing! He frowned almost invisibly. If he remembered correctly, this should be that person's favorite tea. His eyes were gloomy, and he raised his head to take a glass, drinking while waiting for her quietly. But who would have thought that it would take an hour to wait, the pot in his hand had been emptied four times, but...he hadn't returned yet.
He lowered his head, frowned lightly, put down the purple sand teapot in his hand, and said to the girl who was waiting beside him: "Go to the bathroom and see why Madam hasn't come back for so long
"Yes, General." The girl responded, and wanted to go out, but was stopped by him again, and said: "Forget it, I will go there by myself."
In the misty bathroom, there is a scent lingering in the air. The blue water surface in a huge bathing pool in the center is covered with delicate petals, making the woman in the pool even more white as snow.
Frowning all over the sky, she leaned against the edge of the bath with her eyes closed. The water was getting cold again. She didn't remember how many times she had added water. She has always loved flower petal baths the most. Every time she takes a bath, she is in a good mood, but at this moment, she is extremely disturbed. She didn't know how to deal with Bochou. After all, she was his wife, and it was reasonable for him to ask for intercourse. Moreover, he didn't have a concubine. If things went on like this, there was no way out. She sighed, unable to express the depression in her heart. Since she politely rejected him once a year ago, he never felt sorry for her. I don't know why you suddenly want to stay today? Was it to prove to others that he didn't dislike her body? Or is there another reason? She picked up a handful of water and poured it on her face, covering her face with her hands, feeling very tired. Why are the people around her so complicated? Not one of them made her feel at ease because of the tiredness, she wanted to just sleep like this, wondering if she would fall into the pool and drown after falling asleep? She put down her hands, called the girl outside the screen, and said, "Bring me some more hot water."
No one answered behind him, only slight footsteps approaching, and then the sound of water pouring into the pool. She still closed her eyes sleepily, too lazy to open them.
The warm water entered the pool, washing away the petals in front of her, revealing a little delicate and smooth skin on her chest, with a full and seductive luster, which is faintly visible in the water, attracting infinite reverie. The long black satin-like hair was half-wet and scattered on the shoulders, making the thin fragrant shoulders exposed on the water even more white and jade-like, which is too beautiful to behold. The person behind her picked up the bath coin beside her, and wiped her slender and graceful neck with water, his movements were extremely gentle, like the feeling of a lover's hand touching. She couldn't help frowning and said: "I don't need anyone to wait on you, you can step back."
The person behind her didn't leave because of her words, Hai/Tian\Chinese First came closer instead, her breathing suddenly became heavier, and she even felt that the breath exhaled by the person behind her became scorching hot. The man put down the bath towel and stroked the line of her arm with his hand. She was startled, and the roughness of the other's palm on her arm made her wake up suddenly. When she opened her eyes, the drowsiness disappeared immediately, and she dodged aside. Surprised: "General... why are you here?"
Fu Tiao seemed to have expected her to react like this, and grabbed her arm so that she couldn't escape, and said with a smile: "I see that you haven't returned to your room for so long, and I'm afraid that something will happen to you, so I came here to have a look. What's the matter, do you feel that the weather is too hot and you are reluctant to get up after soaking in the water? If you sleep like this, you will catch a cold. "
Man Tian frowned and lowered his head, lowered his body a little bit, let the water cover his shoulders, and said just now: "The general will go to court tomorrow morning, so let's go back to the room and rest. I, I want to soak for a while before going back."
Bo Chou brushed the wet hair around her neck with his hands, and said softly, "It's okay. Since Rong Le likes to soak in the water, I'll come down to accompany you." As he spoke, he was about to get up and take off his clothes, his smiling eyes were bright, as if something was about to move inside.
Man Tian was stunned, and hurriedly stopped: "No need, General. Although I really want to soak for a while longer, but today's soaking time is long enough. I'll get up now, General, please... go and wait outside." Her voice As soon as it fell, a burst of deep laughter spread in her ears, and she immediately knew that she had been teased! Immediately annoyed, as soon as she turned her head, his scorching breath sprayed her ears, itching slightly, she couldn't help but panic, shrank her neck, and was about to turn her head, but he quickly lifted her lower body with one hand, The kiss swept over like a storm, with eager demands and a bit domineering, changing his usual gentleness.
The kiss came unexpectedly, her body trembled, and she froze there. Having been together for so long, Fu Tzu has never done anything excessive to her, at best, he held hands and embraced shoulders. She never expected him to kiss him so eagerly. He broke free from him, but he never thought that Fu Tzu's body was half leaning at this moment, and was pushed violently by her, and his center of gravity was unstable. He only heard a "plop", and the whole person fell into the pool, causing a large splash of water, watering She was all over her face. She froze, wiped the water off her face with her hands, opened her eyes and saw that there was no shadow of Fu Tiao on the surface of the pool, and the entire water surface was covered by maple petals, so she couldn't see where he was at all. And she was naked, he was underwater, didn't he see her thoroughly? I really don't know if he fell into the water on purpose, or was he accidentally pushed down by her? She was a little annoyed, the best way to avoid him at the moment was to leave the pool immediately! With one thought in mind, she quickly jumped out of the water. Just as she stepped onto the edge of the pool, a big hand grabbed her ankle and pulled it violently under the water. With a cry of surprise, her whole body fell to the ground. After going down, a large splash of water accompanied by bright petals hit the surface of the water.
Man Tian, who fell into the water, was almost embraced by Bochou, she inhaled in panic, and choked on a few sips of water.
Fu Zhao brought her out of the water, because she was coughing violently by the bath, as if she wanted to cough out her heart and lungs.
Fu Tzu gently followed her back with his hand, and his single layer of clothes fell into the water, and it stuck tightly to his skin, outlining a firm line. His face was covered with water marks, and his handsome face with well-defined features was flowing on the surface. After the gentle expression faded away, the frowning sword eyebrows became a bit colder, making him look even more heroic. But the way he looked at her right now was unusually gentle, filled with distressed expression.
She coughed for a while, and finally calmed down, her throat hurt like a fire. The heart is extremely stuffy, and the eyes are cold every inch.
Fu Tzu held her naked body half in his arms, and watched her wet long hair curled up and scattered behind her back or on her chest, which could barely block the spring in the water. Her delicate and moist lips were tightly pressed together. , there was a hint of anger at the corner of the mouth, stubborn persistence in the dark and clear eyes, a drop of water hung on the fan-like eyelashes, trembling slightly, wanting to fall, as if it was the tear that penetrated into the heart , making people feel distressed involuntarily. This kind of her is so breathtakingly beautiful, she stirs up the weakest line of defense in people's hearts everywhere, making people tremble from the bottom of their bones, wanting to give up everything in the world willingly for her.
Fu Zhao's heart was shocked, his eyes changed suddenly, and he immediately let go of her as if encountering a poisonous snake and beast, and jumped out of the bath, with his back to her, his chest heaving violently, breathing unevenly: " Soaking for a long time is not good for your health, I will wait for you at the door."
Man Tian also tried his best to calm down the turmoil in his heart. Although he was puzzled by his sudden departure, he was also grateful. She simply wiped her body, grabbed the clean clothes beside her and put them on slowly. How can I get through this tonight? If you escaped this time, what should you do next time
Outside the door, Fu Tiao looked at the endless dark sky with his hands behind his back. Both body and mind cannot be calm for a long time. The moonlight was bright, covering his body with a thin layer of silver light, revealing the deep silence and loneliness.
When Man Tian came out, he didn't look back, but only looked sideways slightly, and said softly: "Let's go." After saying that, he walked straight ahead, and Man Tian lowered his eyes and remained silent, always lagging a few steps behind him. During the short distance of hundreds of meters, their minds were already in a thousand turns.
Back in the dormitory, Bo Chou waved his hand to let the maids back down, and in front of her, he took off his wet clothes first, and put on clean underwear. His complexion returned to his usual gentle and elegant, and he waved and smiled at her: "Rong Le, come here."
Man Tian also returned to his usual calm and composure, raised his eyes to look at him, without moving a footstep, and just said lightly: "General, can we... can we talk?"
Bo Chou raised his eyebrows, seeming to be quite interested, he stepped forward and asked with a smile, "What does Rong Le want to talk about?"
Walking around casually for a few steps, Fang said: "Our marriage is based on politics. Although I have brought you an indelible shame, I have also brought you something you want."
Fu Tzu's eyes moved, his face remained unchanged, and he said, "For example?"
Man Tian turned her head back, said very affirmatively, and said: "More power." Although she was despised by many people, she was the princess of a country after all, and she was the most beloved princess by Emperor Qiyun, representing his love. There is a country behind it. This year, the border was quiet, and after the marriage with them, the Qiyun Kingdom stationed troops to contain the surrounding countries, which had a great relationship. Just imagine, if the two great powers join forces, who would dare to attack rashly? Hundreds of officials in the court are following the trend, and he used it to manage his own power during this year. Now, even Emperor Lintian fears him three points.
Fu Zhao's eyes were suddenly sharp, mixed with a trace of coldness. She smiled lightly: "You don't have to worry, I don't ask for anything, I just want to live in peace and stability like this all the time. Let's... just keep the way we get along this year, okay?" Her voice was calm, and her words The voice is indifferent and no emotion can be heard.
Fu Zhao looked at her and didn't speak for a while. After a while, he suddenly moved towards her, and said in a hoarse voice, "What if I say no? I'm more greedy, and I still want your person... your heart." After that, he had already grabbed her arms On that side, he always had lips with a thin smile, and he just wanted to kiss them hard.
Man Tian didn't struggle, knowing that his martial arts were much higher than hers, and she couldn't earn it, so she turned her head and said indifferently: "Doesn't the general mind that I am not innocent anymore?"
Fu Tiao was startled, and suddenly raised his head, his smile faded from the corner of his mouth bit by bit, his eyes dimmed instantly, and the strength in his hands increased, as if he wanted to take off both her arms. Dingding looked into her quiet and indifferent eyes, he frowned, and there was a little bit of anger hidden between his brows, and said: "Is that how you hate me? In order to reject me, you would rather expose your scars?"
Biting his lips all over the sky, his eyes fell on the light gray cold hard floor tiles, and he said softly: "It's not annoying. You are fine! It's just that only by being an emotionless chess piece, can you not be hurt too much when you are sacrificed." Heavy. And the person in charge of chess should not have feelings, otherwise... when sacrificing a chess piece, he will be in a dilemma and suffer terribly." This is her way of protecting herself. It's really not easy for her to accept her fate and be a pawn in someone else's hands. Since she can't control her own destiny, she can only control her heart. How cold the world makes her heart become.
Her clear and cold voice seemed to break through all the desolation in the world. Fu Zhao's heart trembled violently, and his vision changed immediately. He suddenly felt something stabbed his heart hard, leaving a wound that could not heal for a long time. He let go of his hand, took a few steps back, looked at her with complicated and unspeakable eyes, and his voice was no longer as gentle as before, with a slight sense of vicissitudes, and said: "Why are you so smart? If you are stupid, you will live a better life." You will be much happier, and the people around you will be less troubled.”
Her body trembled slightly, and she recalled in a trance that someone once said the same to her, if she was more stupid, maybe she would have less sad things. It's not that she doesn't want to, but because of many things, she can't help herself.
Fu Tzu stretched out his hand to hold her arm, turned around and walked towards the bed, sighed, and said, "It's late, go to sleep."
Red face, white hair, pain
