“那是自然,”
孟筱笑得皮里阳秋,“这媳妇,王后做得总比别人上心……妹妹快随我去罢,再晚,容夫人母女就该歇息了。”
王后既不在宫中,对孟筱的邀请婉妤便没了推辞的理由,只得随她去容夫人的居处看新生的公主。容夫人的宫室不大,院中枯木衰草不少,室中物事相当简朴,可见亦不是个得宠的。见孟筱与婉妤进来,那临盆未久的纤弱妇人硬撑着想起身施礼,孟筱将她止住,让她仍旧躺下休息,她连连道谢,双睫一低,目中尽是谦卑之意。婉妤听说过,容夫人原是掌王宫缝线之事的缝人,平日为大王缝制衣物。一日子暾偶经她服役之所,见她正坐于院中脉脉低首缝一件素色禅衣,那婉约神情令子暾心有所动,遂命她侍寝,可惜未过许久便把她抛之脑后。因她出身卑贱,宫人也不把她放在眼里,常有怠慢之处。幸而身怀有孕,得王后加以照料,处境才微有改善。孟筱略作问候,容夫人小心翼翼地回答,状甚恭谨。孟筱又问起小公主,容夫人便让内人将公主抱来给她与婉妤看。孟筱先起身接过公主抱着,连声赞其可爱。婉妤亦过去,低首看小公主。那是个柔弱瘦小的女婴,周身红通通地,裹于襁褓中,哇哇地哭着,像只饥饿的猫儿。她脑袋仅有成人的拳头大,皮肤上有清晰可见的血丝,这一哭,眼睛鼻子全皱在一起,本来小巧的嘴彼时大张,红肿的小舌在咽部惊惶地颤动。婉妤不觉她可爱,只感心酸,依稀从这小公主与容夫人的身上看到了自己与母亲的影子,目中渐渐浮起一层微光。她把一直紧握的篪搁在一侧几上,伸手向小公主:“我抱抱。”
孟筱把小公主移交到婉妤臂中,婉妤抱着,轻拍襁褓,低哄小公主,那女婴竟也逐渐安静下来,在婉妤怀抱中沉沉睡去。孟筱啧啧称奇:“刚才我怎么哄小公主都不理,只是哭,而妹妹一抱她便安静了。”
容夫人微笑道:“小妤夫人温和良善,孩子一定都会喜欢的,将来也必会是位好母亲。”
孟筱立即附和:“我这妹妹面相极好,是有福之人,日后定能为大王添几位公子。”
婉妤面红过耳,孟筱见状又肆无忌惮地与随行宫人一起大笑,继续调侃她。婉妤更是如坐针毡,遂起身告辞。逃也似地出了容夫人宫院,身后菽禾忽问:“夫人,你从菡泽带来的篪呢?”
婉妤一怔,当即返回宫室,举目一看——几上空空如也。“筱姐姐,我的篪呢?”
她焦虑而哀求地看着孟筱问。孟筱作诧异状:“篪?妹妹不是一直亲手拿着,片刻不离么?”
婉妤盯了她良久,孟筱仍神色不变。婉妤再看容夫人,容夫人则一脸茫然,似全然不知发生何事。婉妤呆立半晌,终于转身出门,心知她已无找回篪的可能。淇葭次日黄昏才回宫。刚进到中宫院中,便见婉妤着素衣跪于殿前,脱笄谢罪,满面泪痕:“姐姐,对不起……”
淇葭颇感意外,立即去扶婉妤:“妹妹平身,这却从何说起?”
婉妤执意跪下,抽泣着,断断续续低声道出原委。淇葭听后神色一肃,须臾,叹道:“他自号‘菡泽有情人’,是暗指我说他有志、有欲、有嗔、有喜一事,原非男女私情之‘有情’,但他人不知,又见他题《子衿》诗,必然会借此发挥……一场风波怕是免不了了。”
婉妤更觉惶恐,伏首泣道:“婉妤一时不慎,闯下大祸,连累姐姐。但求一死,以还姐姐清白。”
淇葭苦笑道:“真是孩子话。她既存心生事,又岂是见你一死即可作罢的?何况你一死,人必以为是你畏罪自尽或我杀人灭口,倒坐实了她所指之罪。妹妹快起来,跪在这里哭泣,越发引人猜疑,原本无事也会有事了。”
听了这话,婉妤才在淇葭相扶下徐徐站起。淇葭牵她步入宫室,命侍女给婉妤更衣梳妆,待一一停当,再对婉妤道:“妹妹先回去歇息,暂勿多想,只当此事没发生过。”
婉妤不安道:“姐姐不追究么?若筱夫人声张出去……”
淇葭摆首道:“我如何追究?若就此质问筱夫人,反见心虚。且如今她必不会承认篪在她手中……我们只能静观其变,待她亮出此篪,再另寻对策。”
而由此引起的风波来得比预计的更为迅速。三日后清晨,一名浥川君府的侍女入宫求见王后。淇葭见她来得匆忙,额上衣上都是汗,神色慌张,便知事有不妙,遂带她入内室,问她:“是浥川君让你来的?”
侍女称是,取出一卷简书双手奉上,道:“浥川君原本随大王去幽篁山祭祀莘阳君,今日凌晨忽乘千里驹赶回,匆匆写下简书,命我入宫面呈王后。”
淇葭打开简书,阅后即问侍女:“浥川君现在何处?”
侍女答说:“他将简书交给奴婢后便策马赶往菡泽。”
淇葭当即唤来内小臣,吩咐:“备好舟车,去菡泽。”
淇葭出中宫门时恰逢婉妤进来问安。见淇葭欲出行,婉妤便问:“姐姐这是要往何处去?”
淇葭低声道:“浥川君命人送信给我,说一位容夫人的侍女至幽篁山,向大王呈交沈太子赠我之篪,指我与太子频频来往,私相授受。大王怒极,听完后即挥剑斩那宫人,并取消后几日行程,很快便会回国都。浥川君请我多加防备,想好应对之策,说他另有办法救太子。此刻他已赶往菡泽,只怕是要私放太子归国。如此一来,他会犯下欺君大罪,我岂能坐视不理。”
婉妤一听眼泪便掉了下来:“这却如何是好?姐姐是要去菡泽阻止他么?请带我同去。”
淇葭也不多言,带着婉妤出宫,直朝菡泽去。一至菡泽,离舟上岸,便觉气氛有异。院落与厅中门大开,禁卫如常列于两侧,神情却比往日更显严肃,其中一首领模样的军官负手于后来回踱步,面带犹疑之色。另有一列浥川君府的家奴守于码头,旁边泊着一艘可快行的木艇。
