「這初春的風可真冷啊。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnXkgWlUdH
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdoXNClotw
我把衣袍拉得更緊些，但仍阻擋不住透心的寒意。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYq0EM9uWw
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YUfwOgx1i
不過我並未討厭寒冷——畢竟越冷，梅花才能開得越盛。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gT3YT9Mq5
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JRMQjABLl
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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZ2GID47nj
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqRpFpV25c
我漫步在林中，享受難得的悠閒。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9GyGJNBtU
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunN2F7qrG2
忽見前方人影閃動，我警覺的停下腳步，抬眼望去。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAa6SJLatNc
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjBIFqKy9z
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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vdSthwR9h
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HsIxSS4Kn
我心頭微震，轉身正要快步離開，卻為時已晚。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5sHsht3Sy
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1i5cFb1ExE
「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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrm6Miq6Vvk
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4yNICIEBh
我咬了咬嘴唇，只好回身，躬身行禮：「奴婢玲珂，見過太子殿下。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6Ly5ebdCm
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Mubei37rG
此人便是當今太子，慕容索。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTerYuC9XHp
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHvk8TeJkX
慕容索斜眼看著我。「妳是哪個宮的？」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwkZpgtUIj
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Zr6RCvzIt
「回殿下，奴婢服侍的是洛雲宮。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcDYQ0v2Xg
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEikg7raXx
「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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRmjQoy6h5
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYjSBMKE9I
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……」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9vq9eQCaQ
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6v1XjV7ty
「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？」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OBqEpHj71
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHu974kJY0
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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JpmZwstdI
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRif8by4GKj
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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoln2pmYKT
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2pbsRGzMZ
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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBEEEmFyWR
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8I0wLcYvbP
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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYS75F0w763
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQly14u3jnH
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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccCcJWaXu6
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBbcQafOZS
本以為事情已經過去，沒想到卻還有人記得我的身影。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgDtFQ0EoO
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRm4530j5YB
「正是奴婢。」在一位太子面前，我沒有打算隱瞞。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrNiYkDKSk
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppiA1WP23x
「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。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAe5iWFgJL
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6x8BIt3xrp
「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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqJll0Hw4p
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSg6N1D2DKk
他輕輕頷首，又問道：「妳一個婢女，怎麼會學過詩文？」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeh5VeYH45
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuP8f4ghBqB
​「奴婢自小受先父指導，所以略懂文墨之事。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCsGUyiD6d
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSPuutka4j
「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？」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvTedOWFWn
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6Rp5TkMmz
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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16fOKvLBOn
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiwFhOGgP4
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。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IMxCjeYkS
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmRqRRKeMA
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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGeGCoHWq1
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeDovVU9ZL
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：173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDzcrA4XcO
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uNo0TCGQt
​「春到梅無傲，173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5czBC25dQX
　東風吹料峭。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcJHWRrtng
　本應啼不絕，173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5wRDEN2aA
　薄寒靜枝鳥。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0jaMPSLBX
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAauIW2UNR4
慕容索睜開眼，銀灰色的眼眸凝視著我。「不錯，很有意境。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nMfRkv8Lc
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopUpuuM5Yn
我微一欠身。「多謝殿下抬愛。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uazXZR485
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26NL6NvCHh
「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。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDueZXudX8
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gdGAqWhz6
「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。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYepaLVEVd
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCIN1ak8S8
「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？」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5YSfEYTfT
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrCNrwejNL
我伸出手指，輕輕撫摸這熟悉的枝幹。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtYGeVvrCz
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCVONakfRs
「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？」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzh5iMqekVM
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDqiUtVp77
他沒回話，只是定定地看著我。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdQwPzfbsE
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWTi1yLmfH
「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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fwSl7EH1G
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0uXPmm5dl
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。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCwR86gk09
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOthygDhu6
慕容索聞言，眉頭蹙起，瞳孔微微一縮。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡch8WHyqNNH
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kbb1qNRl1
「那一年……是哪一年？」他低聲問。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuf0QQrnLU
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SO10j3KdQ
「嘉寧六年的冬月。」我脫口而出。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkRIKpkj1D
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEa4Mbbf7si
他沉默了片刻，似在腦中翻找早已遺忘的記憶。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcCiDyTeW3
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAzZcbD8fM
「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……」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1gGX1NF2V
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRjke1gstN
我低著頭，默然不語。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7koKXDVocj
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkO3Xx2qMo
「妳的父母……後來如何？」他問。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhJzjuTmqu
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhQFV2IgWZ
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。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BujYomik5
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxkJOErhMd
說到這裡，我突然有些後悔——或許我不該將這些話說出口。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HEkDb9qs5
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xmJDx0vNn
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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupqK9LptN4
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVu0VVWCCQ
​​​​​​​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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hDCnTCcfu
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqz4CuearQP
「所以，這梅林對妳而言，不只有喜愛，」他開口。「還有……仇恨。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsBPwRpemI
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJlio5EDVZ
我輕輕點頭。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuNs8oHBS3
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxd4nQ25son
他沉默良久，轉身背對著我，語氣低沉：「這件事……本宮會查清。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGyFFPE5ZD
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMVBuXlEuX
我愣了愣，不敢相信自己所聽見的話。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZznaSIAY1
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwBxRrPv1e
「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。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrVk3UtXAV
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7PwEU9tqL
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。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBfreh2c7i
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH94xg4jCnB
他點了點頭。「很好。那妳就記著，這是本宮與妳的約定。」173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMd6LIGhW7
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPYCeXNuOf
我再次行禮，將這句諾言深深銘記於心。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyTDi6Vwy6
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmn9jlY73WF
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。173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKjTRaAA1B
173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ad3Sooqwn
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 protection169ＰＥＮＡＮＡpA31QZeIox 維尼
