Bedtime Short Story: The Rabbit in the Palace of Clear Summer in Guanghan Palace

A long time ago, heaven and earth were connected by a tree.

In order to draw a clear line between them, a boundary was drawn ten miles away from the tree, and people from all walks of life kept away from the tree, at most looking at it from afar and making some "overrate themselves" comments.

This also gave the two rabbits a chance to take advantage of the situation.

Not long ago, the heaven and earth, each repair a magnificent palace. The heavenly one is called "Guanghan Palace", to Chang'e cool; the earthly one is called "Qing summer palace", to the royal family cool.

Chang'e in the sky and the earth's little prince each raised a small rabbit, the earth rabbit three-petal mouth, the sky rabbit two-petal mouth.

The two rabbits have a strong sense of belonging, and by chance they hear their master recite a line from the Shengliu Qimeng:

"Three-foot sword, six-jun bow. The north of the ridge against the east of the river. The clear summer palace on earth, the wide cold palace in heaven."

Oooh!

What's so great about the Clear Summer Palace? What's so great about the Summer Palace? It's a laborious thing, and the 100-foot beam is ugly as hell. The rabbit in the sky thought to himself.

What's so great about the Guanghan Palace? Cold and lonely, but also all day to be called to pound medicine. The human rabbit muttered.

So what qualifies the palace across the street to be paired with mine? The more the two rabbits thought about it, the more they vowed to relegate the opposite side to the dust.

The boundary guards against people but not rabbits. While their own pooper scooper was not paying attention, the two rabbits sneaked into the boundary and stood at the two ends of the Heaven and Earth Tree.

The heavenly rabbit looked down, through the layers of branches and leaves, there is a pair of transparent black eyes are staring at their own, legs flopping, three-petal mouth is surprisingly also strange good-looking.

The human rabbit looked upwards, and could vaguely see a pair of misty red eyes, which complemented the soft and shiny white fur, and the two-petal mouth was a bit charming.

"Are you the rabbit of the Earthly Palace of Summer Cleansing?" The heavenly rabbit's delicate voice heard the earthly rabbit's heart tremble.

"Exactly, you are the rabbit of the Heavenly Guanghan Palace, right?" The low and powerful voice of the earthly rabbit seemed to penetrate the soul of the heavenly rabbit, causing her to subconsciously nod her head.

For a while the two rabbits didn't know what to say, leaving only the branches and leaves of the Heaven and Earth tree rustling.

"I heard that the palace on earth is isolated from the sky," the heavenly rabbit spoke first somewhat sheepishly, "There are many beautiful young ladies in the palace, and the emperor is not afraid to beacons them in order to make them happy."

"Not as good as Chang'e's sister in Guanghan Palace, the moon is round when she is happy, and the moon is missing a corner when she is unhappy."

"I also heard that the lanterns on earth are so exquisite that they can cover ten miles of Qinhuai, and the stars darken the moonlight."

"Also can not be compared with the Milky Way in the sky, the stars jumping, heaven and earth are losing color, and the cowherd and weaving maiden separated by two banks of such a poignant story."

The two rabbits complimented each other one by one, completely forgetting their previous displeasure.

"Or the earth is good, the seasons change, flowers bloom, colorful scenes, unlike the sky, thousands of years are the same, boring tight."

The heavenly rabbit raised its two-petaled mouth, and its lovely appearance made the earthly rabbit just want to embrace her into his arms.

"That's true, the sky is foggy all day long, and there are still many rules, why don't you come down, and I'll take you around this Hundred Changes Earth." The earthly rabbit moved a little, the long ears that turned uneasily exposed his restless heartbeat.

"Is that okay? If I come down will you meet me down here?" The sky rabbit peeked out and looked around, a little heartbroken.

"That's natural." The human rabbit kept his cool at all times.

The heavenly rabbit carefully stepped onto the Heaven and Earth tree, but was stung by the hideous bark and sucked in a breath of cold air. She stayed by Chang'e's side, was raised white and tender, which had suffered this.

The heavenly rabbit moved another step, or could not help but scream out in pain.

The human rabbit saw it all, and this grunt made him even more worried, but he is a cold rabbit, worry is not on the surface: "I know you heavenly rabbits are delicate, wait for me to come up to pick you up."

After saying that, the earthly rabbit stretched out his claws hidden under his fur, climbed on the hard bark, and carefully climbed upwards.

Only he forgot that he is also a delicate master, a treasure that the little prince holds in his hand. The claws that have not experienced trials and tribulations can not stand the coarse bark, not a few steps will fall into the blood.

The sky rabbit look, and is touched and anxious, but also can not care about many, open mouth began to bite the bark, click click click, hard to gnaw out a gully for walking.

The human rabbit also followed this method, making every effort, he did not want to let the sky rabbit too tired, they have to come up with a male rabbit's momentum.

The two rabbits were so bored to chew the bark of the tree, until their heads collided together, only to realize that the heaven and earth tree, which is respected by both the heaven and the earth, has been chewed out of a gap.

The human rabbit stared blankly at the heavenly rabbit, the light of the Guanghan Palace hit her thinly, the original snow-white fur at this time can not help but fall some dust, even the two-petal lips also because of the constant gnawing into the three-petal lips.

The heavenly rabbit also found its own changes, and hastily dropped two ears to block its own lips, gem-like red eyes staring at the human rabbit, very aggrieved: "Is not ugly?"

The human rabbit moved her ears away, gently dusted off the fallen dust on her body, and then embraced her in his arms.

"No, you don't know how good-looking you are."

It is said that since the two rabbits gnawed out that gully, the boundary somehow did not work, the fairies have nothing to do have come down to look for love, the two worlds see the form of uncontrollable, simply directly to the heaven and earth tree to be cut down, leaving the fairies on earth in vain.

"You see what a great contribution we have made to the males on earth."

"That's not true."
