"We swear to serve His Majesty!"

☆, antique 

I stretched my muscles and bones, walked out of the imperial study, looked up at the sky, guessed that it was time for dinner, and followed the usual practice, and walked to the Sparrow Palace.

There is still some distance from the palace gate, and some fragrance is carried by the breeze. The fragrance that is overflowing in the air makes me feel a little nervous for a while. Take big steps.

Walking to the door, I saw Lan Xie sitting in front of a few desks with her back to me. I couldn't see what she was doing, but she seemed very serious.I winked at the maids and eunuchs, and they disappeared in a flash, watching Lan Xi still buried in the case.I approached her quietly.

Today she is wearing a goose-yellow double-breasted skirt, a willow-green shawl, and a palace sash around her waist, which makes people's eyes bright, as if she is in the early spring season. , Lin Qingjue is waiting for flowers. 'Scene.As usual, her hair was pulled into a very simple bun, but a gold inlaid jade stepper was inserted on the side. The head of the hairpin was intertwined with flowers and branches, dotted with half-moon cloud-patterned emerald jade, and drooping colorful jade beads. She turned her neck slightly from time to time. The pearl and jade then shook lightly, making a very pleasant sound, at the same time, the bright moon pendant also swayed gently under the ear.

I didn't go any further, but looked away a few steps behind her.She seemed to feel something, and turned her head slightly.I saw her slightly pale face with brows as distant as mountains, and in her bright eyes, blue waves surged, filled with a little moisture of water mist. Seeing that it was me, she curled her lips slightly, her smile was not deep, but it was me. Two shallow pear dimples appear.I was amazed that her dress today has reached the level of her smile, as if she had returned to the beginning, but I didn't ask anything, but walked to her calmly with my hands behind my back.

There was a jade pestle and some porcelain plates on the table, and various prepared powders were placed in the porcelain plate with the outline of the lotus root. She held on to a copper hairpin, picked up some of it with the head of the hairpin, and carefully transferred it to the medicinal powder. In the cup.I watched her move over and over again, and said with a smile: "Is she making incense?" She nodded, without saying a word, still buried in it, as if the light looking back and smiling were all my illusions.

I tapped the knuckles of my index finger on the table twice: "Let me guess, what kind of fragrance is it? Mmm..." I pretended to smell the powder, and slowly lowered my head .At this time, her slightly cool voice sounded in her ears as expected: "Your Majesty, it's just for fun. You have to smell everything. This is a fragrance powder. If you really inhale it, it will be enough for the emperor to suffer for a long time."

I stopped, looked at her and smiled: "I guessed it, the second plum blossom, right?"

This time it was finally her turn to show a look of surprise, she stopped her hands and focused on me.I was so happy that I stretched out my hand to point to the ground powder in turn: "From left to right, they are agarwood, plum blossom, arborvitae, bletilla striata, rosin, and styrax. Am I right?"

"Well... that's right." After a pause, she continued: "Since your majesty can point out these names, is your majesty also familiar with the method of making incense?" When she said this, her eyes widened His eyes were clear, but he hid a bit or two of cunning.

I deliberately joked: "If I guess it, what reward will I get?"

After thinking for a while, she said: "Then I will make this 'Second Plum Blossom' as a gift, how about it?"

"Firstly, grind the dry products of plum blossom and arborvitae into fine powder and mix them into agarwood powder; secondly, grind a small amount of rosin and styrax into powder, mix with a small amount of bletilla striata juice, make thin slices, and then dry them into powder; finally , mix the two powders, and then take an appropriate amount of bletilla striata juice and mix it..."

Before I could finish speaking, she interrupted me, "Okay, okay, I know, I will deliver it to His Majesty in person after the day is finished."

There was a hint of anger in her tone that maybe she didn't even notice, I pursed my lips and chuckled: "No, just put it in the Sparrow Palace, I want you to promise me, every day I come to you, you must Light the incense yourself. Come here," I ordered, and A Yuan heard my order, and rushed from outside the door: "Your Majesty?"

I waved my sleeves: "Send someone to bring the incense burner with lotus flower and cloud patterns in my bedroom." "Yes." A Yuan responded and backed out.

While holding the censer, Lanxi sat down again and used the hairpin to pick the powder into the medicine cup bit by bit. I saw that she was so tired of doing it all over again, so I couldn't help but say, "I'll make it next time, and I'll send whatever you want." Palace people go to the imperial hospital to ask for a steelyard, which saves you the trouble of going back and forth, and in the process of making incense, don't you know that the most taboo is dust mixed in?"

But she shook her head and said very seriously: "Your Majesty doesn't know, the hairpin in my hand is not used to tie hair. I soaked it in a specially prepared potion for some time, and when it comes into contact with these powders, it will be fine. There are only advantages and no disadvantages. Although it is a bit troublesome, the fragrance produced will be different. However, this method of making incense is generally liked by women. I think your Majesty also knows a little about this method of making incense. Where did you learn it?"

I am very sensitive to the word 'women', so I quickly waved my hands: "I don't know these things, Zuo just smelled this fragrance at your door, so I casually asked the palace people next to me, and they told me. "

She didn't care too much, and just said: "Your Majesty also has a good memory, and with just a few words, he can tell all the things on my case."

I laughed a couple of times, fortunately Ah Yuan had already returned by this time.I took the incense burner from A Yuan's hand, paced around the palace, and finally settled on a position that I thought was satisfactory, and put the incense burner down gently.

Lan Xie looked at it carefully for a while, and asked with some uncertainty: "Silver gilt lotus treasure incense burner?" After getting my affirmation, although she didn't smile, the smile that appeared on her lips for a moment was still Being discovered by me, I took her hand, she hesitated for a moment, then pulled it out of my hand as usual, and took a few steps back, her lips were tightly pursed, and her face seemed to be struggling.

However, I was already very happy, so I walked out of the hall and said as I walked, "Xi, I still have something to do, I will come see you tomorrow."

Feeling that the eyes behind me have been following my figure, I silently said in my heart: 樰, I believe that one day, you will finally understand and let go.

In the early morning of the second day, I did not mention the war, but only proposed to form a friendly country with Zhao.I personally ordered Fan Hao and Shen Yan as envoys to go to Zhao country to negotiate.

As soon as the court was over, A Yuan quickly followed up and said: "The young princes have all arrived, and now they are all waiting in the posthouse."

"I know, I ordered people to invite them into the palace immediately." I thought for a while, and then said: "Forget it, it's rare for the emperor's nephews to come, and I will pick them up in person. By the way, invite Mrs. Xi to Xuan Come to Dedian."

When Lan Yu came, I pouted at her, "Come on, put this on." She picked up the clothes, unfolded them and found that they were men's dark clothes, she only looked at me suspiciously, but didn't say much, and walked straight away to the inner room.After a while, she came out gracefully, wearing the man's blue dark clothes on her body, which was a different kind of style.He is handsome without losing his character, and his manners and looks are full of style.

"Come on, come with me," I stretched out my hand towards her, but she took two small steps back calmly and moved behind me: "How dare you walk side by side with Your Majesty?"

I grabbed her, "Xiao, others can't, but you can."

I took her out from a corner of the palace gate and got into the carriage. I still didn't let go of my hand when we got in the carriage, but she didn't show any intention of breaking free.The carriage drove slowly, and she and I kept silent.I think, if one day our hearts can communicate with each other, then I will definitely hold her hands tightly with an extremely pious heart until the end of time.

The noise outside was unaware, and the car stopped still.I asked loudly: "A Yuan, what happened?" "Master, there is an old woman kneeling in the middle of the road in front of you, crying and screaming, saying that she wants to sue." I was puzzled: "Go and ask her to stop her." Who? And who is it to sue?"
