Chapter 28 Chapter Two Colorful

If you love someone, he is Saibei Feihua, and she is Jiangnan Misty Rain.If you love someone, you are willing to carry a pot and cook tea for him, and give everything; you are willing to ride horses and whips for her, and stand alone in the rivers and lakes.When you love someone, every plant and tree related to him has affection and righteousness; every dust and dust related to her has flesh and blood.If you love someone, the years of wandering are also stable, and the days of hardship are also sweet.However, love is limited in the end, and when everything is in the past, the original feeling will no longer be the same.Some people will even be annoyed by that period of possession, and some people will never regret what they have done in the past.

Rong Ruo and Shen Wan dared to fight the world to the end just for the love of each other, seeing death as home.They lived a simple but happy life in the small courtyard of Deshengmen.Because she did not live in Nalan Prime Minister's Mansion, Shen Wan never obtained the real status of concubine.After Kangxi learned about this, although he did not show a positive attitude, he did not blame Rongruo either.In fact, Kangxi's silence was the greatest support for Nalan, so that the court did not cause too much criticism.And Nalan Mingzhu also turned a blind eye, pretending not to ask about Rong Ruo's matter.They conquered the cold with warmth, and disintegrated firmness with softness.They remember that in a certain midnight dream, a withered crabapple bloomed on the branches of fleeting years.

There is no need for a wedding dress, Shen Wan pulls on a cloud dress, she is Nalan's most beautiful bride.The other courtyard in the Qing Dynasty is not as magnificent as the garden of the Ming Dynasty. There are no officials to congratulate and no parents to make decisions, but Nalan has received warm blessings from a group of confidantes.These Jiangnan celebrities have elegant temperaments, all of them are Nalan's close friends, and have received Nalan's selfless help.For Shen Wan, a famous prostitute in the south of the Yangtze River, they are also close relatives in the capital.Therefore, they are not lonely. Compared with those gorgeous banquets and noisy scenes, they are grateful for this tranquility and warmth.

The mandarin duck pillow and the large peonies on the new quilt were all embroidered by Shen Wan himself.In the house, there is her piano, and on the table, there are their collection of words, and the four treasures of the study.The dragon, phoenix and red candles on the candlesticks are shining with bright lights.With the half-closed casement, there is a clear full moon, and a few weeping willows dance lightly in the wind, like a dream in the south of the Yangtze River.Nalan held Shen Wan tightly in his arms, he didn't even dare to breathe hard, fearing that his breath would blow the beauty in his arms to pieces.This is the third woman in his life, even if he pretends or pretends, he deeply understands that Shen Wan is the love in his soul.This kind of love makes him unable to bear a little loss anymore, so he can't tolerate the slightest fault of his own. He promises to the red candle and the bright moon that he will take care of this woman with his life.

Nalan told Shen Wan about his relationship with his cousin Qingmei and his beloved wife Yimei, using his calmest mood to tell about the painful past.Maybe only in this way can he let his heart feel less guilty.It was really not because he failed, but because the years were ruthless and took them away from Nalan in a hurry.A life separation, a death farewell, fate arranged everything many years ago, for the love between Nalan and Shen Wan, those two women were just passers-by in his life after all.And Shen Wan was not sure that she would be Nalan's last woman.She doesn't care, even if it only blooms for him tonight, tomorrow she will lose her city and be exiled in the wilderness with no one.With such an ending, she would also be happy, as long as she left him her most beautiful years, she was willing to grow old overnight.

Dongfeng didn't let go of his worries, so he secretly showed off his Hunan skirt.Carrying a sarong alone in the night, shadowing the painting of a slender waist. Peach Blossom died ruthlessly in shame, and was grateful to Dongfeng.Blowing off the delicate red, flying into the window with chagrin. We always have too many complaints about fate, and we always like to attribute all unsatisfactory things to fate.It seems to shirk responsibility, we are the innocent people, the ones who keep their own place.In fact, its arrangements are bitter and joyful, sour and sweet. When we can't resist, we can only accept it calmly.For so many years, Nalan has silently accepted the joys and sorrows of honor and disgrace, not without complaints, but because any resistance is pointless.Buddhism put him down and taught him to be indifferent, but he failed to do it.Now that he has Shen Wan, he can be so satisfied. A Shen Wan has made up for his sufferings for so many years, so why bother to care about gains and losses with time.He suddenly understood that Shen Wan was his bodhi and his Buddha.

I don't know who said that what God has taken away from you will definitely return to you.Back then, Qingmei's cousin left, and Yimei came; Yimei left, but also left Nalan with a child.Now, Nalan traded several years of loneliness in exchange for Shen Wan's sincerity.Together they talk with their souls and love each other with their lives.Moreover, Shen Wan brought a great surprise to Nalan, she was pregnant with the little life they conceived together in her womb.This little life will continue their love and their talent.This surprise was also a kind of worry for Nalan, because Yimei's death in childbirth caused a great shadow in his heart, and he was afraid that his beloved woman would encounter such a tragic reincarnation.He attributed all these crimes to himself, because he was the one who made Yimei pregnant. He has been burdened with Yimei's death these years, and often in his dreams he was so painful that he couldn't breathe.

In any case, he should look forward to the arrival of the little life with a blessed heart.For this reason, he knelt down in front of the Buddha and begged the Buddha to bless him so that he would not take away the only one in his life.As fragile as he is, he can no longer bear any loss and resist any harm.The Buddha was speechless, but in fact, the Buddha was weeping secretly, because the Buddha knew that everything had a fixed destination.He can protect the sufferings of the common people, but he cannot change the number of days. He is a Buddha with boundless mana, but there are times when he is helpless.The Buddha knew that this year, Nalan was thirty-one years old.Thirty-one years old, at a time when everything has never come, the thirty-one-year-old Nalan is in his prime, full of glory.After experiencing it, I realized that fate hides a mystery of life and death.

Thirty-one years old was indeed an unusual year for Nalan, at least in the spring of this year, there were too many surprises.The flowers that never bloomed in the past are blooming one after another; the dead grass in the past has grown new green; the lonely and helpless people in the past have found vitality.Just like Nalan, he has his beloved Shen Wan, even though she can't be allowed to live in Mingfu Garden, and he can't give her a full title.He has a child with Shen Wan, even though it has not yet been born, he is willing to regard waiting as happiness.And the work in his court seems to have changed for the better.

In the twenty-fourth year of Kangxi, March 18th was Kangxi's birthday, and it was called Longevity Festival at that time.Kangxi specially wrote Jia Zhi's "Morning Dynasty" with his own pen and gave it to Rong Ruo.The poem says: A piece of "Early Dynasty" has aroused a lot of public opinion in the court. Since the emperor bestowed it with the poem "Early Dynasty", it means that Nalan, who is both civil and military, will leave the ranks of guards and become a courtier.Kangxi wants to pay Nalan political affairs and entrust him with important tasks.If in the past, Nalan knew such news, maybe a gleam of joy flashed in his heart, but he would still feel lonely afterwards.But now, Nalan has Shen Wan by his side, and she rekindled hope in Nalan's dying life.When he thought of finally having the opportunity to get rid of the position of "domestic servant" for so many years, the joy in his heart was needless to say.For this reason, he once said happily to his friend Jiang Chenying: "If I have the grace to transfer an official, I can work hard and be equal to the public for a day."

It can be seen that Rongruo also has ordinary people's yearning for official career, but fame and fortune are not the most important to him. Compared with emotion and freedom, he will abandon fame and fortune without hesitation and choose love and freedom.However, can you really see the moon when you clear the clouds and mists?Just as seeing the sun does not necessarily lead to happiness, being favored does not necessarily lead to happiness.The Buddha said that only after hundreds of years or even thousands of years of practice can one finally achieve the right result.After so many years of torment, has Nalan really achieved a positive result in his cultivation?Every tomorrow is unknown, even if you are sailing smoothly, you still have to throw stones to ask the way. These days, Nalan likes to read scriptures. He seems to understand that people who live in prosperity are lonely.Perhaps it was because too many surprises made Nalan, who had a twists and turns of fate, a little uncomfortable. Deep in his heart, he had a flustered premonition that something would happen.But this spring is colorful, singing and singing, every flower is smiling, every bird is dreaming, and everyone is bathing in the happiness of spring.
