The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 55 On Dreams
"Huh? Me? I have... what am I not happy about? He... He? Hmph... I don't care about him, as long as he doesn't bother me, it's fine..." Yanhua drank a little now Too much, my head is dizzy, and my tongue is starting to be a little disobedient.

"Are you drunk? Hey, I was praising you for drinking a lot just now, but it's going to be too soon. Come, give me the wine." Shisan heard that her voice was a bit wrong, so she knew she had drunk too much, so she asked for it quickly. Taking back the wine jar in her hand, but without thinking, Yan Hua immediately protected the small jar of wine in her arms:
"This...is mine, you...don't grab it, drink your own!" Yanhua's mind was still clear, but she was dizzy and couldn't speak clearly. She shook her head, but she didn't shake her mind. Some, but more chaotic.

Since she was a child, although she has drank many times, she has never drank so much.

Shisan sighed lightly, and didn't take the wine again: "It's up to you, if you feel that you can't do it, you can't drink it anymore, you know? By the way, when will the sweet-scented osmanthus wine brewed by my sister-in-law be given to me? Try it?"

"I... naturally know... I'm not stupid." Yanhua pouted and glared at him dissatisfied, but she was so dizzy that she couldn't get any energy out of it, "You need to drink more wine. It's sweet, and next year you can open a jar to taste it."

"Hey, whatever, I'll just wait." Thirteen took a few more sips as he spoke, wiped off the wine stains from the corners of his mouth with a big hand, and then said quietly, "It's okay to drink with someone. It’s very exciting. The fourth brother is accompanying the prince. Hey, marry a princess, the prince insists on joining in the fun, and I can’t enjoy drinking, so I have to sneak out to drink... If you don’t taste good, why are you so big? Wandering around at night?"

"I... didn't study ink today, I... I'm not used to it... He kept saying that he wanted to check how my books were doing, but he kept... didn't check, do you think he forgot?"

"Fourth brother's memory is good. It's because you always said that you don't have time to read, so he didn't push you to read like that."

"I never... never expected him to think about me all the time." As if gradually getting used to the chaos in her mind, she spoke quickly again, holding the small jar in her hand and suddenly shedding a tear.The person who just kissed her a few days ago is already making out with Xin Gege in his arms?With Nuan Xiang in his arms, he had already thrown her out of the sky.

"Have you ever heard the story of Nankey Yimeng?" Thirteen stared at her quietly for a while, his voice suddenly revealed a trace of desolation.

"Yeah." She replied lightly.

"The flashy and prosperous world, in the end, is just a dream. Those things that you try hard to keep in the dream, after waking up, they are like flowers in the mirror, empty. So in life, being able to rejoice and love once is enough. Well, don’t force too much.”

Yanhua carefully savored Thirteen's sudden emotion, and sighed secretly.She understands the truth, but how can she control those thoughts in her heart?
After all, she is a thirteen-year-old woman, not yet an adult, and she is still ignorant about love, so it is indeed difficult for her to suddenly realize it.Shisan saw that she kept her head down and said nothing, knowing that she was thinking about what she said, so she didn't bother her, just grabbed the wine jar and took a few more sips of wine.

She pondered for a while, then pouted dissatisfiedly and retorted:

"Hmph! This life is only a few decades in a hurry, why can't I dream for a lifetime? Although the idiot dreamed of an ant nest under a locust tree, he really felt that kind of unusual experience... Experienced all the joys and sorrows... After a while, it seems like he has lived two lifetimes. He can fully understand in the dream, and when he wakes up from the dream, he will cherish the happiness he has even more..."
