The Tale of Genji 紫式部 5071Words 2018-03-21
This chapter follows the last one, and it is also about the summer when Genji was seventeen years old. But he said that Mr. Genji was at Ji Yishou's house that night, unable to sleep after tossing and turning, he said: "I have never been so disgusted by others. I only know the pain in the world tonight. Thinking about it carefully, I am so ashamed! I don't want to live anymore!" Xiaojun was silent. Yan, just bursting into tears, curled up beside the young master.Mr. Genji thinks his appearance is very cute.He thought: "The small figure of Kongchan that I found secretly that night, and the hair that is not very long, looks exactly like this little gentleman. This may be a psychological effect, in short, she is very cute. I made unreasonable demands on her, followed and searched, It's too much; but her cruelty is also terrible!" Thinking about it until dawn.He also didn't order carefully like in the past, and left in a hurry before dawn, which made Xiaojun feel sad and bored.

Kong Chan also felt very sorry, but there was no news from the young master.She thought: "Did you suffer so much and became wary?" She also thought: "It's really sad that you decide to give up on this. However, it's also embarrassing to let it be entangled. In the final analysis, enough is enough." Even so Thinking, my heart is always uneasy, and I often fall into deep thought.As for Mr. Genji, he hated Kong Chan for being ruthless, but he couldn't stop thinking about it, and he was very anxious.He often said to Xiaojun: "I think this person is too heartless and hateful. I want to forget her, but I can't do what I want. It's really painful! Please try to find an opportunity for me to talk to her again. "Xiao Jun thinks it is very difficult, but he is very honored to be trusted by the young master and entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

Although Xiaojun is a child, he is quite capable of spying carefully, waiting for a good opportunity.It just so happened that Ji Yishou had taken office, and only his female relatives were left at home, living leisurely.One evening, when the sky was hazy and people on the road could not be discerned, Xiaojun drove his own car and asked Mr. Genji to get in the car and go.Mr. Genji thought that this person was a child after all, so he didn't know if it was reliable.However, he didn't have time to think about it carefully, so he changed into a set of micro-clothes and hurried to Ji Yishou's house before it closed.Xiaojun only picked a door with fewer people and drove in, and asked Mr. Genji to get off.The occupants and others saw that the driver was a child, and they didn't mind, so they didn't come to greet them, but they were happy.Xiaojun asked Mr. Genji to wait at the east side door, but he slammed open the lattice door of a room in the south corner and walked into the room.The maids said: "In this way, you can see it from the outside." Xiaojun said: "Why did you close the lattice door on such a hot day?" The maid replied: "Miss Xixiang has been here since daytime and is playing chess." Well." Genji thought, "I'd like to see them playing chess face to face." Then he quietly walked over from the side door, and got into the gap between the curtain and the lattice door.The lattice door that Xiaojun opened has not been closed, and there is a gap for peeping.Looking west, one end of the screen next to the latticed door is just folded.Because of the hot weather, the hanging cloths of the sunshade curtains were also hung up, so Mr. Genji could clearly see the scene inside.

The lady who lives in the west chamber, known as Xuan Duandi, is the daughter of Yi Yujie's ex-wife. A lamp was lit near the seat.Mr. Genji thought: "The one sitting horizontally against the central pillar of the main room and facing west is the person I like." Then he took a closer look.But I saw that this person was wearing a dark purple flowered silk shirt, the clothes on the top were not very visible, his head was slender, his figure was small, and his posture was very elegant.The face is often hidden and dodged, and even the person opposite cannot clearly see it.His hands are thin, and they are always hidden in the sleeves.The other person sat facing east, facing this side, so he could see everything clearly.This person was wearing a white tulle shirt, a purple dress was casually draped over it, a red skirt was tied around the waist, the chest above the skirt was completely exposed, and he looked unrestricted.The complexion is white and lovely, the body is round and fat, the figure is slender, the bun is neat, the forehead hair is distinct, the corners of the mouth and the tip of the eyes reveal infinite love, and the posture is very gorgeous.Her hair, though not very long, was very thick, and the part that fell down her shoulders was smooth and lovely.There is no major flaw to point out as a whole, but she is actually a very lovely beauty.Genji admired her with great interest, thinking: "I can't blame her father for treating her as a unparalleled treasure!" Then he thought: "It would be better to be a little more stable."

This woman does not seem to be without talent.After playing go, when filling in the empty eyes, she was very agile; she spoke articulately and ended the game.Kong Chan's attitude was very calm, and he said to her: "Please wait a moment! This is Shuanghuo. The robbery over there..." Xuan Duandi said: "Ah, I lost this game! Let me count one on this corner. Count it!" Then he counted with his fingers: "Ten, twenty, thirty, forty..." He was astute and quick, as if the Ganges sands were not afraid of endless counting.Just slightly worse character.Kongchan is different: she often covers her mouth with her sleeve, and refuses to let people see her face clearly.But if you look carefully, you can naturally see her silhouette.The eyes are slightly swollen, the bridge of the nose is not very straight, the appearance is not eye-catching, and there is no delicate color.If you evaluate the five senses one by one, this appearance is simply not beautiful.However, the overall posture is extremely dignified. Compared with the gorgeous Xuan Duandi, it has a profound appeal and indeed attracts attention.Xuan Duandi is bright and beautiful, a lovely person.She often laughs wildly, jokes and acts like a baby, so her gorgeous appearance is more eye-catching, and she is a pleasing girl.Mr. Genji thought: "This is a frivolous woman." However, in his sentimental heart, he felt that she couldn't just kill her.Most of the women Mr. Genji saw in the past were calm and serious, putting on a show, and they refused to take a good look at their appearance.He had never seen a woman revealing the truth without restraint.Xuan Duandi didn't pay attention today, and he felt sorry for her when he saw the truth.He wanted to watch until he was full, and refused to leave, but felt that Xiaojun seemed to be approaching, so he had to leave quietly.

,,: Fill in the blank eye, double live, and robbery are all names in Go. Mr. Genji went to the corridor by the side door and stood there.Xiaojun felt that it was aggrieved to ask the young master to wait here for a long time, so he came to him and said, "A rare person has come tonight, so it is inconvenient for me to go near my sister." Genji said: "So, tonight I had to go back empty-handed again. Isn’t this too embarrassing for people?” Xiaojun replied: “Where is it! After the guest returns, I will immediately find a way.” Genji thought: “In this way, he will teach this person to obey me Yes. Although Xiaojun is young, he is well-behaved, clever, understands the world, and is a stable and reliable child."

After the chess game was over, when I heard the rustling of clothes, it seemed that the game was over.A maid shouted: "Where is the young master? Let me close this lattice door." Then the sound of closing the door was heard.After a while, Mr. Genji said to Xiaojun, "They are all asleep. You can go to her and do it well for me!" Xiaojun thought in his heart: "Sister, this person's temper is indomitable. Yes, I can't convince her. It's better not to tell her, and bring the son into her room when there are few people." Genji said: "Is Ji Yishou's sister here too? Let me go and spy on it." " Xiaojun replied: "How can this work? The latticed door is covered with a curtain." Mr. Genji thought: "It's really good. But I have already seen it." Feeling amused in his heart, he thought: "I won't tell him .Told him, I'm sorry for that woman." Just repeated: "I'm very anxious when I wait until late at night!"

This time Xiaojun knocked on the side door, a little maid came and opened it, and he went in.But seeing that all the maids were asleep, he said, "I'll sleep here under the paper partition. It's cooler here because of the ventilation." He spread out the mat and lay down.All the maids slept in the east wing.The little maid who opened the door for him just now also went to sleep.Xiaojun pretended to be asleep, and after a while, he covered the light with a screen, and quietly guided the young master to the shadowy place.Mr. Genji thought: "I don't know what to do? Don't run into trouble again!" He was very timid.Finally, under the guidance of Xiaojun, he raised the hanging cloth on the curtain and got into the main room.At this time, it was even more quiet, and the rustling of his clothes could be clearly heard.

Kong Chan recently saw that Master Genji had forgotten her, she was certainly happy, but the strange dream-like memories of that night never left her heart, making her unable to sleep peacefully. in this way.The chess opponent said: "I'll sleep here tonight." After talking happily, he went to bed.The young man was thoughtless, and slept soundly as soon as he lay down.At this time, Kong Chan felt that someone was approaching and smelled a strong fragrance. Knowing that there was something strange, he raised his head to check.Although the light was dim, one could clearly see someone approaching through the gaps in the curtains where the clothes were hung.It happened unexpectedly, I was very surprised, and I didn't know what to do for a while.Finally he got up quickly, put on a raw silk shirt, and slipped out of the room quietly.

Mr. Genji walked into the room and saw that only one person was asleep, and he felt satisfied.The terrain in the next room is low, and two maids are asleep.Mr. Genji took off the clothes covering this person, and got close to him, he felt that this person was bigger, but he didn't mind, it's just that this person slept soundly, obviously different from that person, but it was strange.Only then did he realize that he had admitted to the wrong person, and he was surprised and annoyed.He thought: "It's too stupid to teach this woman that I have misunderstood someone, and she will find it strange. If I leave her and go out to find the person I like, since this person is so determined to escape, it will definitely be useless. , but was ridiculed by her." Then he thought: "If the person who sleeps here is the beauty I glimpsed under the light at dusk, then I have no choice but to let it go." This is really the bad heart of a frivolous young man!

Xuan Duandi finally woke up.She felt that something was unexpected, startled, and bewildered.Neither thought deeply nor expressed intimacy.This virgin who has just opened her heart and doesn't know the world has a romantic nature, and she has no shame or embarrassment.Mr. Genji didn't want to tell her his name, but after thinking about it, if this woman thinks about it afterwards and finds out the truth, it will be no big problem for him, but the ruthless lover must be afraid of rumors, sad and sad, but I feel sorry for her .So I fabricated the reason and told her in a flattering way: "I used to avoid evil as an excuse to stay here twice before, just to ask you for sex."But although Xuan Duandi is clever, he is still young and cannot judge the authenticity.Mr. Genji felt that there was nothing hateful about this woman, but she was not too human.He still yearns for that ruthless Kong Chan in his heart.He thought: "She must be hiding somewhere now, laughing at my stupidity. Such a stubborn person is really rare in the world." The more he thought about it, the more he missed Kong Chan.But now this Xuan Duandi has no qualms about her attitude, and she is in her youth, so she is also cute.He finally pretended to be passionate and made a private oath to her.He said: "There is a saying that 'although the bridal chamber is good, it is not as interesting as fornication'. Please believe this sentence. I have to worry about rumors outside, so I can't act casually. I'm afraid your father, brother and others will not allow you to do this." Behavior, then there will be much pain in the future. Please don't forget me and wait for the chance to meet again." He said clearly, as if something happened.Xuan Duandi never doubted the other party, and said bluntly: "It's embarrassing to teach people to know. I can't write to you." Mr. Genji said: "You can't teach ordinary people to know. But teach the servant boy here to deliver letters. It's okay. You just pretend to be nonchalant." After he finished speaking, he stood up and saw a single shirt, which was supposed to be empty, and slipped out of the room with it. Jun was sleeping nearby, and Master Genji urged him to get up.Because of something on his mind, he didn't fall asleep, so he woke up immediately.Get up and open the door, suddenly heard an old maid asked loudly: "Who is it?" Xiaojun hated her, replied: "It's me." The old maid said: "Where are you going in the middle of the night?" She expressed her concern and followed come out.Xiaojun hated her more and more, and replied: "If you don't go anywhere, just walk here." He quickly pushed Mr. Yuanshi out.It was almost dawn, and the dawn moon was still bright, shining everywhere.The old maid suddenly saw another figure, and asked, "Who is the other one?" Immediately she replied, "It's the girl from Minbu. She is so tall!" Minbu is a maid.The man was tall and was often made fun of.The old maid thought it was Minbu who accompanied Xiaojun out. "It didn't take long for the young master to grow so tall." She said, and went out by herself.Mr. Genji was very embarrassed, but he couldn't let the old maid in, so he stood still in the dark place at the entrance of the corridor.The old maid approached him and complained to him: "Are you on duty today? I had a severe stomachache the day before yesterday, so I went down to rest; but the superior said there were too few people; I was required to serve, but I came again yesterday. I still can’t take it anymore.” Without waiting for the other party to answer, he shouted again: “Ah, my stomach hurts! See you later.” Then he went back to the house.Mr. Genji finally escaped.He thought to himself: "This kind of behavior is, after all, rash and dangerous." He became more vigilant. Mr. Genji boarded the car, Xiaojun sat in the back and accompanied him, and returned to the Nijoyuan of the main residence.The two talked about what happened last night, the young master said: "You are a child after all, how can you do this!" He also reprimanded Kong Chan for being cruel, hating him endlessly, Xiaojun felt sorry for the young master, and kept silent.The young master said again: "She hates me so much, and I hate my body myself. Even if you keep away from me and refuse to meet me, it should be okay to write a kinder reply letter. I even contacted Yi Yujie That old man is no better!" He was very dissatisfied with her attitude.However, he still put the single shirt he brought under his clothes and went to bed.He asked Xiaojun to sleep next to him, told him all kinds of resentful things, and finally said with a straight face: "Although you are cute, you are the brother of that heartless person. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you forever!" Jun was naturally very sad when he heard this.The young master lay down for a while, and finally couldn't fall asleep, so he got up again, and taught Xiaojun to take a pen and inkstone, and write vigorously on a piece of paper, as if he intended to give it to someone: "Once dressed in cicada clothes, the lingering fragrance is still there, and it is pitiful to see things and cherish others." After writing it, stuff it into Xiaojun's arms and teach him to deliver it tomorrow.He thought of Xuan Duandi again, he didn't know how she felt, he felt very pitiful.However, after thinking about it for a while, I finally decided not to write to her.That single shirt, because it was dyed with the fragrance of that lovely person, he kept it by his side all the time and took it out to look at it from time to time. Fold the paper folded in two horizontally and four vertically into a stack, and keep it in your bosom for writing poems or wiping your nose.This kind of paper is called waiji. The next day, Jun came to Zhong Chuan's house.His sister had been waiting for a long time, and when she saw him, she scolded him severely: "You were so ridiculous last night! I escaped with great difficulty, but it is inevitable for outsiders to suspect it, it's really abominable! Ignorant boy like you, how could you Sent?" Xiaojun was dumbfounded.In his opinion, both the young master and the elder sister were in great pain, but at this time he had to take out the scribbled paper and present it.Although Kong Chan was still angry, she still accepted it, read it again, and thought: "What about the single shirt I took off?"It's worn out, it's ugly. ’ felt ashamed. She was restless and her thoughts were wandering. Xuan Duandi suffered from this accident last night, so he returned to his room shyly.No one knew about it, so I had nothing to tell, but to meditate alone.When she saw Xiaojun walking up and down, she felt excited, but she didn't send the letter for her.But she doesn't resent Mr. Genji's indecent behavior, she just loves flirting by nature, and after thinking about it, she is lonely and boring.As for that lover, although his heart is like water in an ancient well, he also knows that Genji's love for her is by no means comparable to a momentary erotic impulse.Because Nian was unmarried back then, so what?But now it's gone forever, and it's too late to regret.Heartbroken, he wrote a poem on the pregnant paper: "The cicada's clothes are heavy with dew, but the trees are dense and few people know. Like my clothes are always wet, who can I tell my worries?" It was customary at that time that after men and women slept together, the men must write letters and poems to condolence the next morning, and the women must write letters or poems.It is only polite that the man must spend the night with the woman the next night.
