「這初春的風可真冷啊。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkSLnnaz0O
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pyUPBnCcd
我把衣袍拉得更緊些，但仍阻擋不住透心的寒意。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5k4bNgm1lc
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VPU6eNHne
不過我並未討厭寒冷——畢竟越冷，梅花才能開得越盛。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUNQECu4BR
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJgW1AjieM
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYOCzJoZjn
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwifD0eWPiv
我漫步在林中，享受難得的悠閒。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztQ1kWlSWC
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4eUTj62Ex
忽見前方人影閃動，我警覺的停下腳步，抬眼望去。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9drDBtYXR1
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6ggDIWpwy
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UxEqsz64X
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo967TeUQC6
我心頭微震，轉身正要快步離開，卻為時已晚。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡep9IPoRy3c
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHvlxCMDfq
「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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lFJHXK7z3
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ceUhWmfON
我咬了咬嘴唇，只好回身，躬身行禮：「奴婢玲珂，見過太子殿下。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HdgDACjIE
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7sfeZi2wu
此人便是當今太子，慕容索。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHps0zGew4
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNP4BjRXzW2
慕容索斜眼看著我。「妳是哪個宮的？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBPJ94GklY
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWmMsofzwv
「回殿下，奴婢服侍的是洛雲宮。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WkkxiEEO5
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2cSMR1pDH
「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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNac4dq4xn
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyc3KVDJ4j
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……」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPfA2EaMAd
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcSUPxZ20x
「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？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxb5SpvGSI
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnF5kdMU3Ol
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSBC1r0zdk
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmjbzy3yOb
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkz5fjGpWS
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIwRT20rn0
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZswKTxvDG
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4iHhccXKa
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0osLxHR0Ju
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ywsj54vYQ
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpRvubentG
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo7CBO117L
本以為事情已經過去，沒想到卻還有人記得我的身影。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgfOaUnjCT
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLuoYaClCI
「正是奴婢。」在一位太子面前，我沒有打算隱瞞。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDPEWEbbJV
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA24cxgSWtP
「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。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqPedWszIC
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEULYJAZJI
「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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVxJxkFXe1
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeF5aWOo5DT
他輕輕頷首，又問道：「妳一個婢女，怎麼會學過詩文？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08gmmoA8NQ
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBG8E53UtQ
「奴婢自小受先父指導，所以略懂文墨之事。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpyUusByOj
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYTDYoFwl8
「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？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrjbybuUt5
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnewWhviuR5
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEYPZ4XMsR
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTSoXwseyS
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。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWa3ciE0TP
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcES225ectg
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNUoSsPRRP
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjFPftaDiG
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：35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5gcwfY3Xj
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zwEd67NYz
「春到梅無傲，35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8g9iS4LNFt
東風吹料峭。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTDeDOResp
本應啼不絕，35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLfaKGxPn6
薄寒靜枝鳥。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5ax8a6h8o
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4kezCRus1
慕容索睜開眼，銀灰色的眼眸凝視著我。「不錯，很有意境。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHGmDtm4Xk
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJxRHhhiXI
我微一欠身。「多謝殿下抬愛。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCH20VZzGC0
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNMbDLp1tf
「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。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkj1QXZo4h
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgFYw5hutJ
「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。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2Ndg2T6n4
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENprOrC3Si
「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？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZkHcsrm6K
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyPq8EZqdL
我伸出手指，輕輕撫摸這熟悉的枝幹。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKZAul3ej2
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMni7yJe3n
「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？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqQB9tnqS9
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQr7cXugU9
他沒回話，只是定定地看著我。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy51h0HWyJX
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5S8xWZTFJk
「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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjpfnsUsi5
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aBOP4qT2J
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。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDREOGz6S9
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqBkGJi5GA
慕容索聞言，眉頭蹙起，瞳孔微微一縮。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWzWVCSiyU
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJQhAGid08
「那一年……是哪一年？」他低聲問。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWm8Mz7kz1d
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMp2GpPz1GI
「嘉寧六年的冬月。」我脫口而出。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2RDgKamVW
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIT248waoq
他沉默了片刻，似在腦中翻找早已遺忘的記憶。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBn6WfeJHOr
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61OmmJzTR7
「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……」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYJJHxZL7O
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFh88mne32
我低著頭，默然不語。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrkpiAOR1q
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0M2NyN5qV
「妳的父母……後來如何？」他問。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeD0ccboOZ5
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBvnZsJwz0
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。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8eLVBkPfL
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXj5R1nEhT
說到這裡，我突然有些後悔——或許我不該將這些話說出口。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZmRvRxAn3
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwixUSTJ5rG
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmEfnxECnF
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBW9Xmpckup
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj8FowNeXO
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvK5QwX2K2x
「所以，這梅林對妳而言，不只有喜愛，」他開口。「還有……仇恨。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDYaqfLvjL
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJmElnEdwf
我輕輕點頭。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6AbyYatAI
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreHUbwxIzJ
他沉默良久，轉身背對著我，語氣低沉：「這件事……本宮會查清。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckurk5g57M
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39hG1IKC3T
我愣了愣，不敢相信自己所聽見的話。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyR1LTrSpq
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76n8QiQhOI
「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。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQdgvFtzsn
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQnmaxi4Ip
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。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz30rDtj1KF
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVA80wvzxQ
他點了點頭。「很好。那妳就記著，這是本宮與妳的約定。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfo4kBBR5Sz
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAliAAxIcN
我再次行禮，將這句諾言深深銘記於心。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTZWE96zE4
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9IpRSNugj
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。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYOfxqjy0j
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkEnt2yeIe
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。
