After Yin Zhen and Thirteen were called by Kang Xi, I chatted with Consort De. After chatting for a while, I felt a little bored, so I came out for a walk. Consort De agreed. As soon as I walked out of the door, I saw Fourteen. He was a little stunned when he saw me, but he immediately recovered and smiled to accompany me.
"Fourth sister-in-law, fourth sister-in-law," Fourteenth called me, and I came back to my senses. What's wrong?"
"Hehe, you're really the same. You can walk out of your mind.”No. 14 smiled and looked at me. I glared at him." Aren't you looking for your mother? Why are you taking a walk with me?"”
"I want to ask you something." Fourteen laughed. He looked more like a child than Thirteen.
"Yes, what is it?" I asked him. He looked at me and then stopped. He stood in the pavilion of the imperial garden. I walked over.
"Fourth sister-in-law, do you like Fourth Brother?" Fourteenth's question shocked me. I was stunned for a moment before I smiled." Fourteenth Brother is really good at joking. If I didn't like your Fourth Brother, why would he marry him?”
I didn't understand why he asked that. I looked at him with a smile. He turned his head away from me as if he was thinking about something. I didn't understand what he wanted to say, or perhaps he was really just asking.
"En, that's true. I was rude.”He looked ahead and didn't look at me. I stared at him for a while and suddenly saw a few palace maids walking over. I smiled and looked at them. They knelt down to pay their respects to Shisi and left, but I clearly heard them muttering about Shisi and me.
I looked at the back of the palace maids as they left. I turned to look at No. 14." Is there anything else?”After saying that, she stared at him. If there's nothing else, I want to leave first. There are too many people in the palace, and it's not good to have gossip.
"What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry to find Fourth Brother?" Fourteen suddenly said coldly. I was frightened by his smiling expression because his words were clearly vicious, but he was smiling, making me panic.
"Don't you think it's not good for others to see us standing here now?”I looked at him, and he stared back at me. This time, I didn't choose to turn my head. I looked straight at him.
"You're my fourth sister-in-law. What's wrong with us standing together and chatting?”When I saw Fourteenth calmly say these words, I realized that I was also very calm and no longer afraid. I looked at him and smiled." You're right, but don't you think others won't think so?”
There are so many schemes and plots in the palace. Who would think well of it? Everyone would think very complicated. Moreover, I am Yinzhen's wife. When the time comes, I will definitely say something even worse. I can only say these words in my heart. If I tell him, he will probably just laugh. He is a prince and definitely won't understand these things.
"What are you trying to say? What will others think?" No. 14 asked me back. I didn't know what to say. I could only remain silent. Did he understand? Could it be that in his eyes, he could do whatever he wanted?
I stood there quietly. No. 14 asked," Why didn't you say anything?"”I didn't answer and just looked ahead. At this moment, he actually walked up to me and said," Can't you talk nicely? You don't have to put aside your relationship with Fourth Brother if you want to marry him.”
"What did you say?" I was confused by what he said. What did he mean by putting aside his concern and not talking properly? I just didn't say anything. It's not that I can't talk to him when I marry Yinzhen, but I just don't want to be alone in the palace. I'm afraid of rumors in the palace.
" Didn't you say that you wouldn't marry someone from the royal family?" Why did she marry Ling now? Don't tell me you can't be trusted?"
I stared blankly at his words. Yes, when I first came here and met them, I said that I wouldn't marry anyone from the royal family, let alone have anything to do with them. But now, I'm even marrying Yinzhen. What am I doing? Am I still myself?
"Fourteenth brother, I did say that, but as Ling Zhu's daughter, as an ancient woman, do you think I have the right to choose? At least it's better than entering the palace now." I said calmly. I didn't know why he was so agitated, nor did I know why he was saying all this. It was just that I had no other choice now.
"Hehe, that's right. You don't have the right to choose, so this is what you want?”No. 14 asked. I looked at his serious expression and nodded." Yes, it's good now.”At least I can stay by Yinzhen's side. I only said this in my heart.
No. 14 let go of my hand. We were silent. I suddenly turned my head and felt that there was a figure behind the bushes. As soon as I turned my head, it was already gone. I didn't know who it was.
"What are you looking at?" No. 14 noticed my actions. I looked at him and said," I'm not looking at anything. I think I should go back to Consort De's place."”
"En, you can go back!" I didn't say anything else after 14 finished speaking. After watching for a while, I turned around and left. Maybe he was looking at my back, maybe he was looking at the sky, or maybe somewhere else. I didn't understand what was wrong with him today.
The journey back was very long. I didn't understand when I had become so cautious and when I had become so fond of reading people's minds. Could it be that I had been changed by the ancient times? No, this wasn't a place where I could live. Everyone was difficult to see through and had their own thoughts. It was very difficult to understand. I had to find a way back to the modern world.
Although I can't bear to part with Yinzhen, she doesn't belong to me after all. She only has a good impression of me and is entrusted by the Thirteenth Prince, but I don't like him very much. Maybe I don't want to put my heart into him anymore. I don't want to be hurt. I don't want to think about him when I go back. Maybe this is my fate. This is the omen that God wants me to stop indulging in the Qing Dynasty.
As I walked, I realized that I was getting more and more unfamiliar. I knew that I was lost. If I had known earlier, I would have asked Shisi to send me back. Now, I don't even know how to go back. I don't know if Yinzhen has gone to Consort De's place. What should I do now? I should find a maid or eunuch to ask. I won't walk alone in the palace again. I will definitely get lost in such a big palace.
"Hello, how are you? May I ask how to get to Consort De's place?”I called out to a palace maid in front of me. The palace maid turned around and bowed to me. She replied," Go straight from here, turn left when you see the flower garden, then turn right when you see the corridor..." After saying that, the palace maid left.
I thought about what she said. I didn't know how much I remembered, so I could only walk according to my memory.
When I finally reached the second corner, I saw someone walking over. When I got closer, I realized it was Yinzhen. I walked over to look at him and lowered my head in embarrassment.
"Where did you go?" Yinzhen's cold words came from above my head. I said embarrassedly,"I..." She got lost and only found out after asking the palace maid.”
As I said that, I looked up at him. He didn't say anything and just turned around to walk. I followed.
"Master, you're not angry, right? I'm just lost." I asked.
"Mhm, let's go back." He said as he walked. I looked at his back and didn't know what to say. I just followed him.
The distance between him and me has always been like this. There will always be a distance. I can only look at his back and can't stand side by side with him.
