萬紫千紅初綻放，滿園盛夏。彩蝶於叢中飛舞，繞著粉花盤旋，飛鳥低掠，慌忙棄花而去。飛鳥似覺著無趣，振翅高飛，隱於樹中。大樹忽顫，百鳥傾巢而出。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4oTmIz8Rx

我走到她的身畔，蹲下身來。她說來時帶著太子昨日給她的夜鳴蟲，途徑後苑，不慎摔了一跤，蟲子便乘機逃走了。說罷，她舉起空空如也的竹罐。我放下刀，趴在樹下為她找尋那對夜鳴蟲。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMDLfda2VV

我輕輕地撥開綠草，臉以近乎貼在泥地之距觀察著，瞧見了，那夜鳴蟲正躲在一株野花下。我屏息作勢，於心中暗數三個數，遂，撲向那朵野花。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGoy2CJBZy

「抓到了。」我捧著夜鳴蟲向她走去。她興高采烈地打開竹罐，待我將蟲子放入後，又小心翼翼地將竹罐蓋好。我拾起刀，欲引路，她卻望著我偷笑。她向我走來，踮起腳尖，輕抹我的臉頰，轉而向我展示她的蔥指。她說：「泥土。」307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2sEgRvYSc

昭熙長公主乃已故孝惠皇后之所生，早產兒，體格孱弱，服藥若湯。不僅如此，她還有一物不可食用，那便是蝦蟹。每享用些少，便紅疹驟起，御醫更叮囑食用過多或有性命之虞。約莫半年前，我在她的飲食中摻了些河蟹熬製的湯水，紅疹便立即爬滿她的臉。我又於她的衣物中倒了些師傅給的藥粉，使紅疹多日不退，愈發痕癢。宮中御醫診不出緣由，太子震怒，將負責長公主膳食的侍女責打二十大棍。我於此時登場，向殿下奉上解藥，獲得賞識，因而從常樂宮前庭調至東宮任職。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rbkxVExgn

307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9Jv2kXG2J
我於瓊琚殿外張望，瞧見坐於樹下乘涼的昭熙長公主將侍女遞來的湯藥推走，侍女卻一再放至她面前。顯然，公主不願吃藥。我摸了摸腰間的木匣子，壯膽走進瓊琚殿。長公主見我來，很是高興，要我同她說宮外的趣事。我端來藥向她表明，她若是將這藥飲下了，我便同她說趣事。她放開我的手，撅著嘴，不甘不願地將藥飲下。我掏出木匣子，待她放下碗，便塞了顆糖進她嘴裡。她似乎很訝異，愣愣地捂著嘴看我。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNG7GSr24H

後來的許久，昭熙長公主對我愈發信賴，太子殿下亦逐漸將東宮事務交由我處理。我獲太子提拔為羽林校尉，出入宮帷暢通無阻，並安排師傅以樂師身份入宮任職。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBBd8L3jra

我覺著昭熙長公主對我動了心。春季她會送我瓊琚殿第一朵盛放的桃花，夏日會命人為我備下祛暑的綠豆湯，秋季便邀我乘風登高，冬季則贈我暖耳。而我，或許也早已深墜親手為她設下的網罟中。她是如此美好，如此明亮，如此耀眼。如同她的名諱封號，聰慧光明。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTXQz8jWZu

夜半，無需當值的我翻牆進了東宮，冒著微雨來到瓊琚殿。昭熙懼黑，亦怕雷聲的嘈雜，我擔心她睡得不好。往日我亦偶然如此來到她的窗邊，只需望一眼那張熟睡的臉，疲憊盡消。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUh9l97bpBQ

我在她身旁坐下，陪她聽雨，她遞給我喝得只剩半罈的酒，我昂首飲盡。良久，她對著空無一物的酒罈說，她雖體弱，卻並非平日看起來那般無用，平日皆是裝的。言畢，她笑著高舉酒罈。她說雖自幼與太子一同長大，卻遭王皇后打壓，只能以此策自保。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZ28XspkcU

孝惠皇后陳氏嫁與陛下多年，一直無所出，大臣多次上書請求廢黜，幸得陛下維護。迫於形勢，陛下將王皇后，當年尚為夫人的王氏之子劉真，記於孝惠皇后名下，以此得嫡長子，並將其立為太子。三年後，孝惠皇后誕下嫡長女，封號昭熙，然五年後，其因感染惡疾而薨逝。陛下對王夫人有愧，又因其子已貴為太子，便迎之為后。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQwiMaTr6Q

307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaImN6m9Udt
雖則太子與昭熙一同長大，親若同父同母，可王皇后一直對陳皇后懷恨在心，便將不滿悉數發洩至昭熙身上。昭熙言，王皇后雖不曾苛待她，卻不時責難，更借著她的病耽誤婚嫁，美其名曰「長公主的駙馬須為大霽最好的男兒」。陛下因奪子之事對王皇后有愧，不敢多加插手後宮之事，任由王皇后欺壓長女。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzex6IQLAe
307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItnloZpczg
昭熙長公主二十又二卻仍無婚配，既因體弱難覓佳偶，又因王皇后多番阻擾，漸漸地，世人便以為是公主不願嫁人。307Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBwdSfRKAf
