朱玹漸漸甦醒，從一團迷霧中看見了微光，他深吸了一口氣，濃厚的松針香氣混合了少女髮香，湖衣還枕在他臂上，他本不想吵醒她，但她察覺到他細微的動作，搧了搧眼睫，睜開惺忪睡目，接著縮回他懷裡，兩人依舊十指纏繞，不願放手。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7zbXUbRli
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQlpHdo7MB
直到浩漫的夜空邊緣亮起微微的魚肚白，最後一刻終於到來，短暫相聚，轉眼又要離別。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqD2RVaDjn
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9Sc9D0TQ6
兩人沉默地坐起身來，尋覓散亂在一旁的衣物，各自穿衣結髮。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKA59a3xYA
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpo03241Cxo
昨夜，他們逾越了世俗倫理，再無迴旋的餘地。 240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GWLPOg0IR
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhgIP3Miwj
今晨他們默然以對，近在咫尺卻無法擁有，無限愛意卻只能禁聲不語。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrcV8ld9yg
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIekLbQHyG
「我該回去了。」她垂下頭，不敢看他。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCJ2yktb8f
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJ5WZsB8dN
他扶她站起身來，兩人對視，目光膠著許久。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAOVV9a4Rb
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasJXGQL6FQ
「沿著狹路往前走，遇到小溪往東，不到半里就會看見五海子行宮。妳腳上有傷，記得慢著走，別太勉強……」他想再說些溫情的話語，卻有口難言，只能伸出手，勾起食指娑摩她的臉頰，久久不忍放。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYhreZTeFw
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjypfVxa8u6
她不發一語，不哭泣，不乞憐，就如兩人初次相遇時那般倔強，咬著牙紅著眼，不向未知的命運屈服，她越是倔強，他越是心疼。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cvsfSlzsi
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWV0tJC6L17
「夜裡風大，別著涼。」他堅持為她披上他的紫貂裘。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5dPXnjw2l
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCf9KQxyKr
道別太難，日復一日的相思終成枉然。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1tun8HpzW
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF12cZSod5v
最後，她先放開了手，用盡氣力轉過身去，緩步走上林間小徑。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtFzZDLsKD
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLiTNXEfj9
「等等！」朱玹喚住她。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Zah0IZySv

她停下腳步，站在離他有些距離的地方，回眸。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYeAaILcqL

「妳再堅持一會兒，我，」他頓了一下，「定不負妳。」240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7UjWCHhrs
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFJJvyJRWp
她輕輕微笑，點了點頭。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZKX05W3ad
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡietrKZWXkz
他凝望著她離去的背影，良久。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYCP3Mbp89

多年來他守著對先皇的承諾，輔佐皇帝，戍衛江山，卻只換來皇帝的疑心猜忌，早已心生倦意，如今違背皇權和禮教，戀慕後宮妃子，甚至失去自持，作下不可言說之事，他並不後悔。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hGE5Og4Zf

朱玹的曾祖和祖父多次隨成祖皇帝遠征，立下赫赫戰功，還曾在戰況危急時護衛天子左右，因而獲得成祖御賜丹書鐵卷。丹書鐵卷以鐵為契，以丹書之，以金為匱，以石為室。鐵卷可世代家傳，多用於護身防家，也可請求賜予官爵及邑地，但他――240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3M8MycVzBf
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XcPlv1UNi
要以此交換湖衣的自由之身。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXc96wHBh4
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLR1lui0kt
眼下她未受冊封，可如尋常宮女一般，屆齡放還。若她能夠遠離皇宮，不再捲入後宮爭鬥當中，人身安危亦不會再受威脅。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4viHiZZmP
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cMKq8uy7G
他只請求皇上放她安然離宮，至於其他，且戰且走便是，要求更多，不免又引來皇帝猜忌，反而會害了湖衣。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtl6QYSVBaN
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTfO4lpMsG
若皇上認為丹書鐵卷不足以作此請求，他亦可辭去輔政大臣及禁軍統領之職，遠離宮中權力中心，別讓皇帝侄兒一見著他，就坐立不安，如芒刺在背。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29OQjOMYn3
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7A8wNmRqVO
湖衣既以心相許，他必不相負。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv1aX04cCH

朱玹回過頭，是司衛劉熙。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwI5eOv3pXF

「護衛兵方才回報，那名『宮女』，現已安全回到行宮。」劉熙回報。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpvcPN3opp
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5IAiJkLL4
朱玹微微頷首。他原本放心不下，命人不露行跡地跟在湖衣身後，直到她安然抵達行宮。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡig9o4NGfbp
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwJqyDrtpJ
「還有一事，昨日傳聞，在離此不遠的林子裡，有人發現兩名驅獵夫的屍身，皆是遭到刺殺。」劉熙逕自續道，「再加上來宣旨的中官私下透露，黑熊皮後腿上留有幾道不明鞭痕，處理起來十分麻煩。」240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFEIT4rO6r
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaPfl4E1BW
「所以黑熊是被人趕過來的。」朱玹皺眉思忖，「那兩名驅獵夫可能是看見了甚麼，所以遭到滅口。」240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCnKnALJge

是誰欲與他和神機營為敵？240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfJiD79BwH

不，神機營火力強大，無論甚麼樣的猛獸都討不了好去。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxu0l1xJqrz

目標是湖衣。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2lhf9MB2O

有人要置她於死，偽造成獵場中遭受黑熊攻擊的假象。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡew4gQbqt0y
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0FXy44aDf
是貴妃。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoCsOz7BVB
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcJHPC4haV
多年來他時有耳聞，萬貴妃謀害後宮嬪妃，但他沒想到貴妃的勢力已從後宮延伸到宮外及朝堂。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUT4uvtNAET
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOcfJMMHpF
如今連掌管獵場的上林苑監都聽從貴妃授命，這其中必然有他未曾察覺的權力和利益收受。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaEV27V6hP
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGKumOUIkP
無論居中穿針引線者是誰，此人暗中勾結內外主事官員，手握權勢，心懷叵測，不僅是對湖衣，她身邊所有人――包括皇帝，都可能會有性命之危。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMEnSBWhTK

「為防有變，全營即刻整裝，前往行宮護駕。」朱玹下令。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCGqr27DqM

湖衣不記得自己是如何走回行宮的，只知腳步越來越沉重，像是被灌了鉛。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIdWOwNB51
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o34GpqV8f
昨夜，她給了心儀男人唯一能給的事物――她自己。選擇所愛，卻悖離禮法，背叛了皇上，負罪感一點一滴地侵蝕她的心口，最後，胸腔成了一個荒蕪的空洞。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7U2XFqnfw
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCYINxMAwJ
她自然明白此事世間難容，世俗倫理如銅牆鐵壁，一女不事二夫。別說在宮中是唯一死罪，就是在民間，女子與夫君的叔父相戀，為家族蒙羞，若是被人察覺，下場必然是死路一條，要不被逼自縊，要不被拖去遊街、浸豬籠，絕無他途。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnrsBI1kfB
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0O2qwUEbd
既走到這一步，後方已是萬丈懸崖，縱使遭到萬夫所指，最後粉身碎骨而亡，又何嘗不是自己所求的結果。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2uyQKCNAu
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzANcgsjcGS
湖衣沿著小徑向前走去，晨風微涼，微潤的溼氣像是隱藏在空氣中的無聲訊息。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeCxkZdZ3s

黑羽白喙的貓頭鷹被她的腳步聲驚起，振翅盤旋。原來前方不遠處就是五海子行宮，主殿盛光殿的琉璃牌坊和灰瓦捲棚頂已映入眼簾，再往後是皇帝寢殿，這裡伺候起居的宮人不多，規矩也較為鬆散，連站哨的侍衛都因酒醉而靠在宮門邊打盹。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHe4W8Athg
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmKSvpCKwe
她想回暫居的偏殿，躲進被褥，在沒人看到的地方獨自悲傷。不料，御道盡頭有個頭髮花白的嬤嬤，一瞥見湖衣便急急朝她跑過來。湖衣沒見過這個嬤嬤，猜想應是在行宮裡當差的。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZCiMOuO65
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhxLoGIV4R
「妳們這些裝死發懶的丫頭，不戳妳們幾下子，不知道幹活，」嬤嬤抓著湖衣的手腕，又戳了一下她的太陽穴，「天一黑全跑去吃酒玩樂，皇上寢宮要人值夜，妳們可全死絕了。」240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjM3wfJJS7k
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24QuyT98xI
湖衣被嬤嬤用力拖向皇帝寢宮，她受傷的右腳刺痛著。她想解釋，嬤嬤卻一路又拖又拉，根本不給她機會開口，一直到了宮門前，嬤嬤推她進門後，才放手離開。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IXbVzTVqy
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnNWeM2H4j
站在寢宮外值夜的太監是張敏。張敏認得湖衣，一看到她來，隨即從廊下走來見禮，神情緊繃著。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23kudSuqa4
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tGdYcJVAa
湖衣不禁心生好奇。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlDNFUyySc
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6x7jF5WQp3
皇帝只在有嬪妃侍寢時，才需要一名太監和一名宮女在寢殿外當值，否則，便只由兩個太監值夜。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjsb8mZj2B
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPD0BFEsyo
那麼，為皇上侍寢的是誰？240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdb8waCyAVn
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCv2Ir23iU
「娘娘，這……」張敏走到湖衣面前，試圖擋下她。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAY2x4gGEX
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQTxgPQkfH
湖衣以自認最凶狠的眼神瞪了他一眼，「你敢攔我。」240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxT3j2PWjVS
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHzczn5Agx
「老奴不敢。」張敏低頭作揖。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVmlz9Jzqh
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaNCoxABYP
湖衣不理會張敏，逕自走上階梯。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4AIEeGhk8
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACqqh7CBQN
張敏見攔阻不成，也不再多言，悶著頭退到殿門一側。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDc5vNIJFB
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHQe7hn0wg
湖衣將耳朵貼近殿門，聽著殿內傳來陣陣濃重的喘息聲和呻吟聲，現在她知道那是男女燕好的聲音。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQ4hs1YCpV
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKd4JWTZkd
「喔，慢點，對，就是這樣，喔，使勁……」女人毫不掩飾自己的呻吟聲。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkEX5DVQiu
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQPUpWzu4k
湖衣被好奇心驅使，轉過牆角，到了寢宮的另一端，蹲低身子，透過花窗向裡看。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVaUxf5ALD
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPSRa0UExv
房裡的男女扭成一團，兩人全身赤裸，男人背對著湖衣，不斷地向女人的胸口擠壓，女人的頭向後仰，看不到臉，隱約看的出來，她有對碩大的乳房。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhidDtxxkn
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuabrzJwR1
雖然只得見背影，但她猜到那男人是朱見深，他在女人的身軀上起伏擺動，發出規律而濡濕的聲音。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMZ4TAyWs7
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVf2MganHU
「來啊，真好……」女人握住一隻鼓脹的乳房，乳頭又黑又大。男人如飢餓的嬰兒般一把抓住那隻乳房，將頭埋進胸口，渴切地吸吮著，下身更加劇烈地晃動起來。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyCd1zuE3A
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzXlHOHOhp
湖衣這才看見女人的半邊臉，她的臉潮紅臃腫，緊閉的雙唇周圍有著明顯的皺紋，她依然認得出那是萬貴妃。她喊叫呻吟，腫脹的乳房上浮出一條條糾結的青筋，另一隻乳頭還不斷溢出稀薄的白色汁液，皇帝鬆開口中黝黑潮濕的乳頭，轉向另一邊吸吮。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnk89XoRRkC
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMj6edRIqyh
那是……240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqRRBxuAhh
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWXLQWjg9h
乳汁？皇上在吸吮萬貴妃的乳汁！240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuxsxQMRLu
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYc2ZhTple
湖衣驚呆了半晌，直到聽見高亢的吟叫，她才踉蹌地往後退。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjptuT35nr
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLww22k7Hi
「娘娘……」張敏必然是看見她驚恐萬狀的神情，走過來想攙扶她，臉上還帶著「早叫妳別看了」的無奈。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCYeloH8gR
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2pLxLupU8
湖衣如遭五雷轟頂，耳邊嗡嗡作響，她努力回想要如何返還她的偏殿，腦中卻一片空白。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8haNS3rsk
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbMhiOHClf
她轉身就走，心中直想和皇帝寢宮離得越遠越好，淚水迷濛，她看不見前面的路，什麼都看不到，她只能一直跑，一直跑。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkf5lNKhmm
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzb30bPQufb
下雨了，一開始是霏霏的細雨，不久後變成了滂沱大雨。她不敢停下腳步，只要她一回頭，她就會憶起剛才看到的那一幕，皇上和萬貴妃，他們是夫妻，也是母子。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRYXCo0cKP
240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBtlPZCmKS
她拚命奔跑，受傷的右腳承受不了她身體的重量，就這樣癱倒在泥濘裡，她胃裡翻攪，用盡剩餘的力氣乾嘔，直至喉嚨灼痛，再也發不出任何聲音來。240Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRxjtMijFA
