「這初春的風可真冷啊。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdUNxewvmj
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9Ecrby7Cv
我把衣袍拉得更緊些，但仍阻擋不住透心的寒意。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoy2dWcEyhQ
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3v6B1Xyal
不過我並未討厭寒冷——畢竟越冷，梅花才能開得越盛。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnHdKvADDf
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5O0qlIyHG
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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTztOWmY6Q5
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJkCyarSZe
我漫步在林中，享受難得的悠閒。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DQYvdJN06
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTXD1EDhtI
忽見前方人影閃動，我警覺的停下腳步，抬眼望去。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpztmhPEhvh
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EA8cGVD10
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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dINU7ErB4
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMw5OioypY
我心頭微震，轉身正要快步離開，卻為時已晚。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qXftt4AMh
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5hI3HxAdw
「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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZn2ABD3lwJ
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYokyE3lNV
我咬了咬嘴唇，只好回身，躬身行禮：「奴婢玲珂，見過太子殿下。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJik5WUxsz
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduGGEQfbBf
此人便是當今太子，慕容索。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRV0xAIX0X
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2prQSiRDOD
慕容索斜眼看著我。「妳是哪個宮的？」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oUbl25uD2
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnM2pO7PZSp
「回殿下，奴婢服侍的是洛雲宮。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAfpfAJp8G
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzbG51aY7D
「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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWe1cxricbx
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IiRqDSqsZ
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……」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAWEYNDbEi
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HPstYIO64
「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？」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UUiy7cdD8
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AiqG8Qxua
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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0a1tMpKBw
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzZ7idL1Ze
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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxE3RCZMcH
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38pjAeV1Ac
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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbu7r9n9rLw
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPfyrTHvpf
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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMTU5c8QAp
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hIRb6N40G
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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKaN7o05oy
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQqMOcX3uk
本以為事情已經過去，沒想到卻還有人記得我的身影。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ar1uhIx22
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRw2k56S4vf
「正是奴婢。」在一位太子面前，我沒有打算隱瞞。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CUF0P7SEe
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAyFYBbeko
「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。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PnClkkxMP
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRLTHgPEu4
「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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefMsu7xUYV
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69wV2XudUh
他輕輕頷首，又問道：「妳一個婢女，怎麼會學過詩文？」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtquPZTJXfU
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtinfGdV2nr
「奴婢自小受先父指導，所以略懂文墨之事。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyBdkkOJ0c
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUVRmBQrV3
「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？」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlGFDSdJS2
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrfxOFoQAi
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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxIiAqBQFV
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFx4hQ1uccn
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。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2H4wQVlyF
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCxZDy632b
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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXIyydBabR
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBk0pQJt1L
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：39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXZI7CRPrd
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEv0a2PgDjo
「春到梅無傲，39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dlsuieau5
東風吹料峭。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ozDMgAswx
本應啼不絕，39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5q4RlFL0Sa
薄寒靜枝鳥。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9TV23imG6
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0qQckRoJI
慕容索睜開眼，銀灰色的眼眸凝視著我。「不錯，很有意境。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIxTVq18em
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91hOjvLSDU
我微一欠身。「多謝殿下抬愛。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2v03FmUYXk
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SY1rBC6x3
「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。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSuDrb6PbX
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxaMsdLgVc
「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。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZbx6e0O7t
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMNGgqlUWL
「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？」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcZH2jFztZ
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9GgEx0TYy
我伸出手指，輕輕撫摸這熟悉的枝幹。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lmw91pcrB
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYWnAXFplk
「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？」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaC2uHIf2ay
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmcw2qfAdR
他沒回話，只是定定地看著我。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasHVYPnCj2
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWBNs9OukE
「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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9jIndPnjG
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKK1gDI8zqY
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。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytjyc8eGhn
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykU0neW2P5
慕容索聞言，眉頭蹙起，瞳孔微微一縮。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUmRpstdko
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbasyRvLFij
「那一年……是哪一年？」他低聲問。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUshKnvR3YS
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6qAv1tY7i
「嘉寧六年的冬月。」我脫口而出。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiBVDajRRq
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZ6ya3u7TB
他沉默了片刻，似在腦中翻找早已遺忘的記憶。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsGxG0tW0I
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6tXsCcwV2
「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……」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrgUTH07D9
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJdlEvDDgK
我低著頭，默然不語。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIB0gLB257x
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsllXUnQ5k
「妳的父母……後來如何？」他問。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImHGgLLQ7w
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTr4zRMBAVM
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。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVXDbVNqhz
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZF97LuVwmZ
說到這裡，我突然有些後悔——或許我不該將這些話說出口。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerZVDih9rz
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMKjKguCcI
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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojIsbRfvlv
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASduFWHnWm
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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneOyOMLauy
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xtLW410Hl
「所以，這梅林對妳而言，不只有喜愛，」他開口。「還有……仇恨。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHYUCyoFZo
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Z8H7NTPg9
我輕輕點頭。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdLsj8CGpO
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXsRmJ4UY8
他沉默良久，轉身背對著我，語氣低沉：「這件事……本宮會查清。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPz2aw6OnqU
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeP9nkZuSjQ
我愣了愣，不敢相信自己所聽見的話。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPeXFT6ecP
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dDILEvlAg
「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。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqdPEmgCWu
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNNK99m0Cg
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。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfa4EX5stwh
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIF4hRrbazX
他點了點頭。「很好。那妳就記著，這是本宮與妳的約定。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK29TnUuegN
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHEJQU1xcD
我再次行禮，將這句諾言深深銘記於心。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvrQJHUkdn
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdQQQx22SU
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。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2XpkFtkJa
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJPAwe8Q88
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。
