Chapter 181 Huashang's Reluctance

Hua Shang couldn't help but look at her a few more times. The story of Prime Minister Wu and Mrs. Wu spread throughout the streets and alleys. She had the honor to follow and meet Mrs. Wu once, five years ago. Mrs. Wu was so beautiful at that time. But time was like water, but the beautiful couples of flowers looked tired.

"What's wrong with Madam?" Hua Shang asked. Mrs. Wu lowered her head and rubbed her fists, looking very hesitant, but she didn't know what she thought of, and asked softly: "I don't know if Madam is free? I want to see Madam." Hua Shang hesitated for a while, looked at Yiwei, and the other party hurriedly shook her hand.

"This..." she said, "It's not that my maid is disturbing my wife, but my Princess Sui has been feeling unwell recently. The order from the Sui King just gave is not allowed to disturb anyone." As she said, she added, "If the maid has something important, please tell me that the maid is brave enough to spread it." Mrs. Wu's eyes drooped faintly and she sighed softly.

She smiled and said, "It's okay, wait until the Princess Sui is better, I'll do it again." How could such a proud person allow her to express her pain in front of everyone? It was her limit to be able to enter the palace to find the Gala watch. Mrs. Wu nodded and turned around and left.

Hua Shang looked at her figure who was leaving, picked up the silk squid and chased after him: "Madam." Mrs. Wu turned around. Hua Shang said, "You lost it." The maid behind her stepped forward to retrieve it. Mrs. Wu smiled at her: "Thank you, girl." She was still Liu Yun from ten years ago. Even if she was in a downturn, she would never lower her head easily.

Hua Shang looked at her figure disappearing into the corner, and then came back to his senses and sighed with a long loss. Yiwei asked, "Aunt, why are you sighing?" Hua Shang shook his head. Are all men in the world so heartless? "Aunt." Yiwei leaned forward and said, "There is a saying that I don't know whether to say or not."

Hua Shang frowned: "You just say anything." "That's right, why did the King of Sui specifically ask his wife to be careful of her pregnancy? And he did not allow any wife to come to the palace to visit?" He looked at her face carefully and smiled. Hua Shang had always disliked the person who left half a sentence: "Why?"

"Aunt, I think about it carefully. Mrs. Wu has only entered the palace to pay my respects during this period." She suddenly woke up like a thunderclap. She covered her mouth and glared at him in disbelief. The King of Sui didn't want his wife to see Mrs. Wu? Hua Shang returned and attracted Gala's attention. She put down the book: "What's the matter?"

Hua Shang closed the door and looked at a loss. She realized that she was back. She touched her forehead and bent her head to feel that there was a large area of ​​cold sweat on her back. "Slave, I..." Just when she didn't know how to answer, she happened to see the water cup on the desk. She walked up and squatted down and picked up the kettle, and smiled: "When you go out, remember to change the water for your wife. Will you eat red date tea later?"

Garo looked at her strangely, picked up the warm chrysanthemum tea and shook his head: "The autumn is dry, I have not had a lot of relief in the past few days, so I don't need to change the hot red dates." "Yes." Hua Shang put down the kettle, stood up and retreated, and pushed it to the door and was about to go out. When she was about to go out, she couldn't help but think of Mrs. Wu's face again. Is this or not?

She hesitated for a moment, put her hand on the door and slowly lowered it. She repeated this over and over again and again but didn't make up her mind until Gala called her behind her back that she turned back in shock. "Hua Shang, do you have something to tell me?" Gala asked in a stern voice.

Hua Shang bit her lips and hesitated, and then stopped again. Finally, she lowered her head and shook: "No, I'm leaving." She walked in a hurry, and the sound of her feet stepping on the floor was a little loud, obviously there was something wrong. Gala gradually felt a sense of worry in his heart, and he only summoned someone to ask: "What trouble did Hua Shang's relatives have encountered recently?"

The palace maid replied, "Madam, I have never heard of this." "Who has she met recently?" Garo continued to ask. The palace maids and several people shook their heads after thinking about it. One of the palace maids who were friends with Hua Shang smiled and said, "Hua Shang just went out just now, so you can ask Xiao Tang, who was guarding the palace gate, if something happened to him?"

Gala nodded: "Okay. Summon him in."                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       

"I wonder what the lady is asking?" Xiao Tang said respectfully. "Who did Hua Shang meet or something when he went out just now?" Xiao Tang turned his eyes and bowed more respectfully: "When Madam said, Aunt Hua Shang has never met anyone, and I have been guarding the palace gate."

Gala frowned and walked back and forth for a few times. He felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.                                                                                                               �

When the palace maid went to find him, Hua Shang was not in the house. Li Bing lowered his head and dared not say that Hua Shang was sending a gift bag to his brother. He just sneaked out of the back door while the palace was still in chaos to inform him. When he got up early, Aunt Hua Shang took him a sachet. He happened to be on duty in the palace these days and couldn't go home, so he begged Aunt Hua Shang to deliver it to the Meridian Gate for him, and someone would wait at the palace gate. Li Bing would wait there.

Hua Shang walked away from home and saw a long figure, wearing a gray-brown linen gown, holding her hair high to her forehead, which looked very free and easy. She looked very different from the people guarding the palace gate around her. Somehow, her back made her breathing faster.

Hua Shang hid in the palace wall gate to calm down his heart, and looked at the person outside from time to time. Two palace maids took their waist cards out, and the man stepped forward and bowed and asked, "Is it Miss Hua Shang?" The palace maid looked at him, ignored him and left. "Sorry." She looked like a fool.

Hua Shang thought this way, and then thought that there was nothing to be afraid of. She was not even afraid of the King of Sui and was just a documentary. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but plucked up her courage, and hummed and walked out with a sachet. Li Bing saw her like this. Hua Shang was a very beautiful girl. The breeze blew her sleeves and her long clothes fluttered. After years of palace rules, she had already developed a uniqueness in every move.

Li Bing stood tall, mixed with the scholarly spirit of a civil servant, which was very different. The two of them looked at each other and their faces turned red for a moment. "Hey!" The soldiers guarding the gate stopped them, and a sudden voice came. Hua Shang was shocked and looked at it. "Wait card." They had to go out.

Hua Shang was stunned and thought for a while. He didn't remember that there was any such thing as this. Where is the waist card now? So she lowered her head and looked around all over her body, and finally took off the palace card on her waist and asked, "I forgot to bring it in a hurry. Is this OK?"

Each palace has its own palace signs. Hua Shang is the second-rank female official in Guide Palace, and her palace signs are different. The goalkeeper saw it at a glance, and quickly bowed and waved his hands and said respectfully: "So it's my aunt." "Can I go out?" Hua Shang's eyes touched Li Bing and asked in a low voice.

The general clasped his fists: "Sorry, aunt, if you don't have a waist sign, you can't enter and exit the palace gate..." He paused and said again: "If my aunt only talks near this palace wall, the villain can be compatible." Hua Shang secretly glanced at Li Bing: "Yes." He guarded the gate and let him go, Hua Shang walked towards Li Bing. Although it was the first time we met, we couldn't help but feel close. "That..." She asked: "You are Li Bing's brother?"

"Is Li Bing?" Li Bing asked. "Li Bing?" The two people's names were not accurate. Hua Shang wondered if he had found the wrong person, but Li Bing lowered his head and smiled awkwardly: "Li Bing was originally named Li Bing, Hua Shang blushed and lowered his head, shy: "Sorry, I don't know."

"It's okay." Li Bing said. "By the way..." "By the way." The two of them looked up at the same time and spoke at the same time. "You say it first." "You say it." Hua Shang was already very shy in her heart, but she forced herself to resist this feeling: "I'll just talk first."

Li Bing nodded, and Hua Shang handed him the sachet: "I made this for you. If Li Bing said you like plum blossoms, I embroidered the plum blossoms. I don't know if you like it." The sachet was only the size of a palm, and the embroidery work was very delicate and dense. Li Bing took it with a smile and looked closely. He felt a faint fragrance floating on the tip of his nose. He untied it and indeed put the dried plum blossom petals inside.

I think it was the one I collected after the last year. A faint joy surged in his heart, and he couldn't help but look up at the woman in front of him. It was like the willows blowing in the breeze, with a thick ink and elegant beauty. "More girls." He bowed and said softly. Hua Shang turned sideways to avoid his etiquette: "It's okay, it's just not delaying your use."

Li Bing smiled and took the straw grasshopper from his sleeve: "I didn't know that it was a girl who sent it today, so I didn't prepare any gifts. This is something I bought for my younger brothers and sisters at home. I wonder if the girl likes it? If she doesn't like it..."                                                                                          

Li Bing raised her eyebrows and looked at her, and she was very surprised. Hua Shang lowered her head and took the grasshopper: "Thank you, Brother Kou." Finally, she added quietly: "I like it very much." Her joy was really reflected in her words. Li Bing then decided.

The two of them stood with their hands behind their backs, letting the breeze pass by blew their clothes, their long gowns, and their faces. But at first glance, they were reluctant to leave too early, and it seemed that it was great to stand opposite each other just like that.

"I..." Li Bing spoke to ask when she was free, and if she needed any new things outside? Next time he entered the palace, he brought them in for her to play. But he just spoke, and saw that his younger brother ran over in a hurry.

He closed his mouth and looked behind her seriously. Gala also looked back. Li Bing panted and grabbed Hua Shang's hand and ran into the palace. He didn't even notice that Li Bing was standing there.

"Oh." Hua Shang was dragged by him for about ten steps, and Li Bing was about to catch up, but the soldiers guarding the gate were already angrily with their spears. "Li Bing!" he shouted. "What are you doing!" Hua Shang wanted to spread his hand and turned around and looked at Li Bing. Just a high palace wall separated them, and the distance between them was only ten steps seemed to be extremely far.
