a pillow in autumn

When Xian Xun said this, her eyes sparkled, she was playful and cute, Mu Bai was delighted to see it, she cupped her hands and made a bow: "Xiaosheng would like to hear more about it."

Xian Xun smiled sweetly, took Mu Bai's hand and came to the Liuyun table, pointed at the body of the qin and said: "Your Highness, do you think this qin is different?"

This is an ancient cedar with seven strings. Many years ago, considering Mubai's preference, the queen also hired famous teachers to teach her the rhythm. There is a piece of "Nine Heavens Ring Pendant" in the Palace of Treasures, which is a fine Shanqin.But calligraphy, painting, piano and chess are all playthings, and she is afraid of empathy. If she gets older, she can only concentrate on government affairs.

Looking closely at the lyre today, the body of the lyre is smooth and slender, and when pressed and pressed, it seems to have the sound of gold and stone. At first glance, one can tell that it is the handicraft of a famous master, but if you want to talk about it in detail, you can't tell why.Mu Bai could only smile, and looked at Xian Xun apologetically.

Xian Xun called two maids, picked up the body of the qin, turned it over, and saw a few lines of small script engraved on the back of the qin, Xian Xun said: "This qin was given to me by my grandfather when I was ten years old. , because the person who made the piano once said that it is true for a hundred years. The body of the piano is engraved with the name, place and origin of the fir.” She plucked the strings casually, and the sound was melodious and melodious. Why don't His Highness use this method to clarify the military order!"

"You mean to engrave the burner's name on the city bricks?" Mu Bai knew it all at once, "Not only that, you can also engrave where it came from, who is in charge, and the date of submission! Every six months Ten bricks are one chop, each chop is engraved with a brick, no matter who replaces it, it can be seen at a glance! If there is another bad product, anyone can find the owner from the brick!" Her eyes were bright, Holding Xian Xun's hand, he happily said: "Good idea! Xun Er, you are really my good wife!"

Seeing that she was in high spirits, Xian Xun was going to discuss with a few staff members, and hurriedly asked the maids to pass on a message to the boys, but Mu Bai walked a few steps, then turned back to the garden, Xian Xun tilted his head to see her approaching, she With a smile on his face, he stepped forward to grab Xian Xun's hand, finally pecked her on the face, and left contentedly.

Siyuan and Shuyao watched from the side, they both smiled and lowered their heads to pretend not to see, Xianxun blushed, seeing the maids, they couldn't help laughing, and they didn't want to play the piano anymore, let alone let others follow, they were enjoying the spring in the garden went.

In a blink of an eye, the catkins are flying, and the green grass outside the city is sprouting new shoots.The issue of city bricks was settled, and Gu Xin took full control of all matters. Starting from the latest fired kiln bricks, it was clearly ordered that a brick name be engraved every sixty bricks, and the New Deal was coordinated. , prohibited by order.Zhou Mubai felt relieved, and all the staff in Prince Rui's residence also beamed with smiles.

It was already dusk, Shen Youtang and the others left, Mubai was alone in Dongnuange surveying the map, and the surrounding counties also needed to restore the city brick fortifications.She was watching intently, and Shuyao knocked on the door for a long time before she heard the voice of "come in" from the room.

Shuyao said, the Xinuang Pavilion has already served meals. The princess said that today, there are some southern dishes that His Highness likes.

Mu Bai frowned and said, "Southern cuisine? Is the princess cooking again?"

Shuyao smiled and said, "It was made by a newly recruited cook. The princess thought that His Highness loves southern dishes, so she asked the housekeeper to find it."

"It's obvious that you all love southern cuisine." Mu Bai also smiled.Put down your pen and go out with her.Seeing that she had a new pendant on her waist, she casually said, "Your hand is still so dexterous, and the tassels on this pendant are so beautifully tied."

When Shuyao saw this, she lowered her head and glanced, and said with a smile, "This is from Biyue. Before she came to Hezhou, she looked at my pendant and said that it would look good with a silver thread. We have been away from Beijing for such a long time, she made a network in Beijing and asked Xiaotuanzi to send it to me."

The two chatted and said they had reached the stone path in the courtyard, Mu Bai thought for a while and said, "Do you know why Xiaotuanzi returned to Beijing this time?"

Shu Yao nodded.

Mubai said again: "If I remember correctly, you are half a year older than Biyue. You have been by my side all these years, and I forgot to ask you, is there anyone you like? If you like who? , you just say, I will definitely make the decision for you."

Shuyao paused, looking at Mu Bai who was a few steps away, Mu Bai also stopped, and turned back to look at her.Shuyao shook her head and said: "The servant only wants to stay by His Highness and Wangfei's side and serve the two masters."

"Shuyao." Mubai stood still and said seriously: "I have never treated you as a slave. When I was young, I followed my father back to the palace, and you and Biyue accompanied me. At that time, you were sisters. After so many years, I've always considered you family."

There are a few lilacs planted in the yard. The spring came earlier this year, and a few small flowers swayed out of the flower buds in the north wind, lining the surroundings of Mubai, as if she came out of the flowers generally.Shuyao looked at her with a sincere face, her nose was sore for some reason, tears welled up in the corner of her eyes, she hurriedly lowered her head and let out a "huh".

Mubai waited for a while, seeing that she didn't answer anymore, he only said that she was shy, and then said softly: "Then sister Shuyao has a crush on someone? Or has the family ever engaged you in marriage?"

Shuyao's heart was sour, she suddenly knelt down and kowtowed, Mu Bai couldn't stop her, Shuyao bit her lip, tears were already overflowing, she choked up and said: "Shuyao was sent to the palace by her family since she was a child In this life, I can't find them anymore. In this life, I only hope to be by the side of the two masters and serve the masters, and I ask Your Highness to let Shuyao stay."

Mu Bai helped her up, seeing her eye circles were still red, she was a little puzzled, so she just sighed and said: "I'm afraid I'll delay you. If you stay with us, we will still be family members from now on, don't you Cry." She said with a mischievous wink: "If you have someone you like in the future, you still have to tell me. No matter what time it is, I will make the decision for you."

Shuyao could only nod her head in response, and the two went to Xinuang Pavilion again.

Outside the Bisha cupboard in Xinuange, a few little maids came up with a running water tray, and the aroma of the stir-fried beef made people's eyes shine.Shen Xianxun was thinking about arranging a few dishes with meat and vegetables, and saw Siyuan poking his head out of the window from time to time by mistake, so he walked up to her and patted her lightly.

Siyuan was taken aback, stomped his feet and said, "Miss, you scared me out of my soul."

Xian Xun laughed and said, "What are you looking at? You're so engrossed."

"Sister Shuyao has been going to Dongnuan Pavilion for a long time, why haven't you come back? It rained in the afternoon, and the road is wet, so she must not have fallen." As she spoke, she simply walked to the window pane and looked outside.

Xian Xun shook her head and looked at her amusedly: "I know, I said you were waiting for my sister, but I didn't know, I thought you were waiting for some young man."

"Miss~~~"

When Mubai and Shuyao walked in, Siyuan's face was burning red, Mubai looked at her and then at Xianxun, what's wrong today?Shuyao is weird, and Siyuan is also weird.Xian Xun took Mubai's soft-fur cloak and handed it to the little girl beside her. Seeing Siyuan bowed her head, she smiled and said, "Shuyao is back, you can go have dinner with her, you don't need to wait here."

Siyuan stomped his feet, but didn't dare to say anything, he obediently filled the rice and placed it on the inlaid jade table in a regular manner.Xian Xun glanced at her, she had a pleading look on her face, Xian Xun pursed her lips into a smile, and stopped teasing her, first served a bowl of soup with Mu Bai, and the young couple began to eat.

After dinner, all the things on the table were removed, and the maids brought up fruit snacks, Shen Xianxun told Siyuan and Shuyao to go back to rest, so they don't have to come over at night.Just when Shuyao was thinking hard, she bowed her body, thanked the concubine, turned around and went out.

Seeing that Shuyao didn't wait for her to have dinner together, Siyuan felt a little depressed, so he just used some cold broiler casually, and saw that the little girl brought Shuyao's regular dishes to her room, and after a while they left them intact I brought it back, feeling puzzled, and asked a few insincere words, but I couldn't get the point, so I left the little girl and ran to the kitchen to search. The woman in the kitchen saw that she had carried two eggs, and said dumbfoundedly: " If the girl is not full, the old slave will serve you a bowl of noodles?"

Siyuan blushed, smiled flatteringly and said, "Please trouble Mama Zhang, no need. Sister Shuyao has probably caught a cold and can't eat anything. I'll get two eggs and boil them for her." Said and ran to In the yard, I patted my chest to make up my mind, and then went to knock on Shuyao's door with eggs in my bag.

Shuyao sat in the room, only lighting a bean lamp, wondering what she was thinking.Hearing the knock on the door, he didn't really want to respond, but the more anxious he heard the knock on the door, "Sister Shuyao, sister Shuyao, open the door. Are you okay? Sister Shuyao." Siyuan's voice came through the carved door, Every sentence became more urgent, and then seemed to be crying.Shuyao felt warm in her heart when she heard it, she got up and opened the door, Siyuan was standing outside the door, behind her was the moon on the upper floor of Yunsui Yingchun, it was the west window, and it was cool at night.
