「這初春的風可真冷啊。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkMkC7cely
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwPpaWR6ou
我把衣袍拉得更緊些，但仍阻擋不住透心的寒意。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FTQgPW2rB
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoXp0njriS
不過我並未討厭寒冷——畢竟越冷，梅花才能開得越盛。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jEjY0aWad
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NvoZPAtvn
這裡是皇宮外圍一處極為僻靜的梅林，尤其現在天寒地凍，更是杳無人跡。只有我常在閒暇之時，才會來這散步賞景——今日也是。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHYdth72TJ
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMn0Fnyv2G
我漫步在林中，享受難得的悠閒。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiHzCpmmTQ
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8moHqhtNt
忽見前方人影閃動，我警覺的停下腳步，抬眼望去。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7BnbtQLwe
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLyAKrjVwY
一位身穿黑色長袍的男子朝我的方向走來。他衣著雖然樸素，但仍可看出用的是上好布料；他的腰間掛著一塊玉珮，雕紋繁複，絕非常人能所擁有。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pSoXmnm5D
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKd5b1LH1y
我心頭微震，轉身正要快步離開，卻為時已晚。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6m3AcOsvw
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnnvyrm30B
「誰？」冷冷的聲音自背後響起，周圍的溫度似乎都隨之下降了不少。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL87WG8EKHW
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS969csyRdr
我咬了咬嘴唇，只好回身，躬身行禮：「奴婢玲珂，見過太子殿下。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmbATcCTYj
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRc0ovkJuUt
此人便是當今太子，慕容索。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYkkHM3nbV
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVAh0dRjQn
慕容索斜眼看著我。「妳是哪個宮的？」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRYHAoXwgp
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqphJ1btPJ
「回殿下，奴婢服侍的是洛雲宮。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33orEGOU0x
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyBX2ptdgB
「阿瑤？」他微微偏頭，用那銀灰色的眼眸盯著我，似乎在思考什麼。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnTPUDCGo4
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXirWUq8hP
機不可失，我打算趁這機會溜走。「若太子殿下無事吩咐，奴婢這就先退下……」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6s0qoMkxt
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0JRLCr6Ej
「慢著。」慕容索叫住我。「妳就是前幾天在宴席上，代替阿瑤賦詩的那個婢女？」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDCuDtl7Ki
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeV7CyLFus
幾天前，皇上心血來潮，在御花園舉辦了一場宴席，目的是為了考察皇子和公主們的才學。當時全洛雲宮上下都急得團團轉，因為洛雲宮的主人——三公主慕容瑤，是最受皇上寵愛的女兒，可她偏偏只愛到處玩耍，不愛詩詞文章。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rR5JTudsN
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv65UTKkgIu
宴席當天，三公主坐在案前，對著案上那張白紙發呆，身後皆是等著她鬧笑話的兄弟姊妹。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyNpk4Zv8j
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgIndAIxAU
若她出醜，不只自己顏面掃地，連帶整個洛雲宮的體面都要被踩進泥裡。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmskFWYuKQ
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFpHE80NWp
眼看情勢危急，我作為三公主的貼身侍女，靈機一動，當下隨口吟出一首詩。雖說不是什麼驚世之作，但也緩解了宴席尷尬的氣氛，皇上甚至還讚賞了三公主一番，說她教導婢女有方。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6O8P7sAJe
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipVGmHtaFp
宴席結束後，三公主高興地賞給我不少金銀首飾，感謝我替她解危。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApKsOzZikx
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF77CtT7bAh
本以為事情已經過去，沒想到卻還有人記得我的身影。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7QJa8O4bI
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHnZC8vnNq
「正是奴婢。」在一位太子面前，我沒有打算隱瞞。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe35sKGvbKY
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiWs1blqKK
「難怪。」慕容索挑了挑眉。「當時本宮很是懷疑，那個成天只知玩鬧的傻妹妹，怎麼可能寫出那種蘊含典故的詩。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjJgFpGfV8
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlL38EoxSe
「殿下過獎，奴婢只是隨口一吟罷了。」我謹慎的答道，故意忽略他對三公主的譏諷。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTF9you5s6
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UCpzxz550
他輕輕頷首，又問道：「妳一個婢女，怎麼會學過詩文？」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNw4kkLrQ2z
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGI7Gfvf3x
​「奴婢自小受先父指導，所以略懂文墨之事。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRZ6bA5s39
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2MEHPZuRb
「原來如此。」慕容索望著我，語氣饒有興致。「那妳能否以這片梅林為題，賦詩一首？」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jNCWxHwzR
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6v7piM9Eo
我微微一愣，正要推辭，卻察覺到他的眼中隱隱帶有挑釁的意味。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9vU4bxfcG
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8tWJUeBPB
被他這樣一看，我的好勝心瞬間被激起。「沒問題，只是要請殿下等些時刻。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDedKfaq3X
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfRDPtq2pm
他點點頭，嘴角浮現一絲滿意的微笑，然後退到旁邊，靠著一株梅樹閉眼休息，不打擾我思考。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVflQzy16MP
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRYzKS31kc
一陣冷風吹來，我拉緊衣袍，抬頭看向滿天雪白，詩句在心中悄然成形：206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCniL5Y5qR
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sRJYtQoR3
​「春到梅無傲，206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoddkBqAto
　東風吹料峭。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmvbB9WsQd
　本應啼不絕，206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDBS3SCVQn
　薄寒靜枝鳥。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfhjUNbujG
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBstVB3egvd
慕容索睜開眼，銀灰色的眼眸凝視著我。「不錯，很有意境。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZN92tCHynF
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJWihkvy0M
我微一欠身。「多謝殿下抬愛。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TdnTCA5zo
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MQgal3iiY
「本應啼不絕……」他喃喃自語，似在咀嚼詩中之意。「妳很重視這片梅林吧？連鳥兒的啼聲都會去注意到。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa96ACF7H3U
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQTQNwhLUH
「是，奴婢自小便喜梅。」我說。「有一年奴婢生辰，先父買下了這片梅林，作為奴婢的生辰禮物。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbSUawACJa
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtBSKpwssq
「這片梅林……原本是妳的？」慕容索眉睫一動，眼底閃過一絲寒芒。「那為何會落入皇家之手？」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNfcYUy68u
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7E0ybXwowj
我伸出手指，輕輕撫摸這熟悉的枝幹。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzq8VDhRnw
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKmEwCg1ju
「如果奴婢沒記錯……」我低聲說。「皇后娘娘，也就是殿下您的母親，素來喜歡梅花，對吧？」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYpQif9z25
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5YsnJAK6h
他沒回話，只是定定地看著我。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4Muv19Cip
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kYiYFTD8C
「曾經，奴婢生活在一個富裕的家庭。」我的語氣苦澀，將那段壓抑已久的記憶娓娓道來。「但有一天，一群禁衛軍闖入奴婢的家中，說那片梅林被皇上選中了，要賜給皇后娘娘。他們還硬是塞來錢財，非要奴婢的父母賣出那片梅林。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJqAcHZBhe
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUn0Dp2mby
那時奴婢年幼，在一旁哭鬧不已。奴婢的父母也不願意，結果那些禁衛軍……說奴婢的父母違抗聖旨，把他們都帶走了。而奴婢也被抓到這裡，從一個千金小姐，變成宮裡的下人。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fsCFmwnt4
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUC3OcvdUOh
慕容索聞言，眉頭蹙起，瞳孔微微一縮。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChWrdwEBaS
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vgxzzkL5u
「那一年……是哪一年？」他低聲問。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVS2RFSNOHy
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKlZon5CVs
「嘉寧六年的冬月。」我脫口而出。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGvMD2KnGD
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7t5qK0pZy
他沉默了片刻，似在腦中翻找早已遺忘的記憶。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkwRhYaWx3
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUqkqCrph3
「嘉寧六年……那時我八歲，而母后確實在那年冬天搬入了梅華宮。」他喃喃地說。「但我從沒想過……」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIqWDUTABU
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTUmAY3snG
我低著頭，默然不語。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkFfq2UsUO
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7b8Mixzba
「妳的父母……後來如何？」他問。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUtG88yIPk
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCt5P4YAY6
我搖搖頭。「奴婢不知。從那天起，奴婢便再沒見過他們。奴婢曾偷偷詢問過幾位老宮人，但沒人肯說。她們只是叫奴婢乖乖做事，別惹麻煩。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7Z3qBQfTM
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRU7LgSwvy
說到這裡，我突然有些後悔——或許我不該將這些話說出口。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNgQfKhbdT
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1t07oPlVW2
這裡畢竟是皇宮，話題若是牽扯到皇室，只要稍有不慎言語，便將是殺頭大罪。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtggEwEzW1n
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8i1cC4SZC
​​​​​​​我偷偷看向慕容索，卻發現他正注視著我的臉，眼裡絲毫沒有譴責的意思。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaJMm3qsl5
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7VdQpiyLK
「所以，這梅林對妳而言，不只有喜愛，」他開口。「還有……仇恨。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcuhjtSoBx
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXmpK1A45F
我輕輕點頭。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ruAq7duWi
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOQYzvTZt7
他沉默良久，轉身背對著我，語氣低沉：「這件事……本宮會查清。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYv1DHwxtC
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgzr23uvO5
我愣了愣，不敢相信自己所聽見的話。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9YPZFPkMu
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fAWkxiJWQ
「妳能說得如此清楚，代表當年的事是真有不妥。」他回眸看我，眼中那抹銀灰不再冷漠，而是閃著一種堅定。「如此荒謬之事，本宮絕不會坐視不理——若本宮日後登基，必還妳一個公道。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfQgG5A10z
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76pFCxObTe
我瞪大了眼，幾乎不能呼吸，趕緊低頭深深一拜：「奴婢……多謝殿下。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdF5Dp2Smg
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJfxupsJDp
他點了點頭。「很好。那妳就記著，這是本宮與妳的約定。」206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkoqK8Swxy
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtehuGEb9LU
我再次行禮，將這句諾言深深銘記於心。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoRBqpjALs
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVtu0nYbjU
我目送慕容索的背影在梅瓣中漸行漸遠。陽光不知何時突然出現，照得梅林裡一片光明——就像我現在的心。206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdhDMlpQ2z
206Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUPuJknpqJ
梅花不再受到春寒料峭的干擾，得以繼續綻放它的傲骨；林中的鳥兒不再受薄寒所制，終於得到了啼叫的機會。8964 copyright protection202ＰＥＮＡＮＡFr2lXWvse9 維尼
