spring as old

There is nothing to do in the court recently, and the monarchs and ministers are all free.

After the early court was over, Puyang went back to the harem alone, and Wei Xiu was painting in the courtyard.

She has nothing to do all day long, and she always wants to find some fun to pass the time. It just so happens that a new painter in the palace is good at fine brushwork, very ingenious, with light and elegant colors and bright lines. Together with Weixiu's eyes.She followed the painter and learned to paint.

Only one or two years of study can be regarded as a slight improvement.

The spring is beautiful today, and it is ready to be painted, so she asks people to spread out the canvas, trying to describe the spring and color.

Pu Yang entered the door, quietly walked behind her, stopped to watch for a long time.

Wei Xiu wore a plain gown, and drew a brush on the silk carefully. The painting was a spring scene, and the spring scene was very beautiful, and Wei Xiu was more beautiful than the spring scene.Pu Yang admired paintings first, and then admired people, his eyes focused on Wei Xiu's face, and he couldn't bear to look away.

Wei Xiu concentrates on painting, outlines with lines, smudges with colors, the image of spring in the courtyard is transferred to the silk intact, vivid to the extreme.

Wei Xiu put down the brush, looked at it for a while, and asked casually, "What do you think?"

Pu Yang stared at the beauty wholeheartedly: "No one can match."

Wei Xiu turned her head helplessly and looked at her: "I'm talking about painting."

Pu Yang coughed lightly, and finally came back to his senses: "It's just about painting. The scenery in late spring is often painted by others. Axiu's works have a unique aura."

A dispute of words must be no match for Qiniang's.

Wei Xiu sighed, shook her head, beckoned Gong'e to come, put away the pen and ink, and went to the hall together with Pu Yang.

Pu Yang is still wearing court clothes, so he needs to change them first.The palace servants had already prepared their skirts, and after Puyang changed, he went to the dressing table to recomb his hair again.Wei Xiu sat under the window not far away, and glanced this way from time to time, most of the time, she was still paying attention to the endgame set up in front of her.

After combing it with the cloud bun, the palace people took Huasheng and Buyao from the state, and put them on for Puyang one by one.The hair bun was done, the palace people bowed and retreated, and another palace lady who had been waiting for a long time stepped forward to put on makeup for Puyang.

Pu Yang turned his head and saw Wei Xiu holding a sunspot on her fingertip, deep in thought.Pu Yang's eyes moved slightly, and he glanced at Gong'e beside him, Gong'e understood, and retreated respectfully to her original position.

"Axiu." Pu Yang called out.

Wei Xiu came over in response to the prestige, but Pu Yang didn't speak, just looked at her.Wei Xiu felt slightly puzzled, threw the sunspot back into the chess cage, pushed the wheelchair over, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?"

Pu Yang still didn't say anything, but just set his eyes on the eyebrow pencil.

Suddenly, Wei Xiu stepped forward again, and looked at Puyang with a smile: "I've been painting recently, and I happened to come up with some techniques for thrushing eyebrows, do you want to try it?"

A smile appeared in Pu Yang's eyes immediately: "Alright."

The palace people are all laughing.Wei Xiu took the eyebrow pencil, leaned in front of Pu Yang, and carefully traced on her eyebrows.Pu Yang didn't move at all, Wei Xiu and her were extremely close, so close that they could barely breathe together.The eyebrow pencil glides over the eyebrows, like a breeze blowing through a curtain made of silk, soft and soft.

Looking at Wei Xiu's delicate face, Pu Yang felt like a flower bloomed in his heart.

After the eyebrow makeup was completed, Wei Xiu stepped back a little, looked carefully, a smile appeared on her lips, took out the bronze mirror, and held it in front of Puyang.

The person in the mirror is very beautiful, and her carefully drawn eyebrows make her beauty even more impressive.

Pu Yang felt that Wei Xiu's paintings were better than any maid, and she was about to speak when she saw Qin Kun rushing from outside the door.

He came here at this time, there must be something.

There was still a smile on Pu Yang's face, he handed the bronze mirror to the palace man, and asked casually: "What's the big deal?"

Qin Kun bowed and bowed, glanced at Wei Xiu, with a look of embarrassment in his eyes, but said in his mouth: "Your Majesty, the prime minister will see you."

If only the prime minister would not have such an expression, Pu Yang suppressed his smile and looked at Qin Kun.Qin Kun didn't dare to keep silent, but his face was full of embarrassment: "The prime minister is here to invite His Majesty to welcome the servant into the palace."

There was a sudden silence in the hall.

Pu Yang hurriedly looked at Wei Xiu, his expression was very awkward, Wei Xiu was still holding the eyebrow pencil in his hand, upon hearing this, he smiled faintly, glanced at Pu Yang, and put the eyebrow pencil back on the dressing table: "It's important, Your Majesty, let's go."

Pu Yang originally wanted to explain that she had never mentioned Shijun to her ministers, she was lucky to have Wei Xiu, so how could she think about others.But just to welcome the servant into the palace, it seems that the candidate has been chosen, and he is only waiting to bring that person into the palace.

Who knows that before she opened her mouth, Wei Xiu let her go without even asking.

Pu Yang pursed his lower lip, nodded, and went out.

Wei Xiu went to solve her mess again.

This is not the first time that the matter of serving the emperor has been mentioned.Last time, because the emperor's husband returned to the palace, nothing happened. This time, the ministers were obviously in their minds and insisted on a result.

The prime minister is also worried about the emperor's heirs, so let's take a look first.

Your Majesty has been married to the imperial husband for seven years but has no children. Presumably the reason is not with your majesty, but with the imperial husband.Some ministers in the court have moved their minds and wanted to send their nephews to the palace.

How could Puyang let go, and perfunctory the prime minister with a few words.After all, the prime minister is a man, so how can he speak too clearly with Puyang, but he can't speak in a vague way, and Puyang loses interest again, after a few words, he can't continue.

His Majesty's resistance must be due to the emperor's husband.The prime minister sighed, had no choice but to blush, and spoke a little more clearly: "Your Majesty has no children, and His Royal Highness must understand the important affairs of the country. For a while, jealousy may arise, but after a long time, it will be fine. "

Pu Yang thought of Wei Xiu's indifferent appearance just now, and really wondered what it would be like for her to be jealous.

Pu Yang suddenly felt very depressed.

The prime minister saw the emperor's complexion loosened, as if he seemed to be agitated, his spirits were lifted immediately, and he was busy chasing after the victory. After a few more words of persuasion, his majesty shook his head and said, "There is no need to mention this matter again."

The prime minister left dejectedly.

Seeing him leaving the palace, Pu Yang also became dejected and went back to look for Wei Xiu sullenly.

She and Wei Xiu will never have a child, but the East Palace really cannot be without a master.She had hoped that the King of Han, the son of the King of Han, was also of the blood of Emperor Gao, so that the emperor's line would not be moved aside, but for many years, the King of Han had nothing to show for it.

Pu Yang was helpless, leaned on Wei Xiu's shoulder, and complained in a low voice: "The royal family has withered so far, and there is no sign of prosperity. The ministers have something to say."

Wei Xiu comforted in a soft voice: "There will be no way out."

Pu Yang quietly glanced at Wei Xiu, Wei Xiu was calm and composed, as if she didn't take this matter to heart.Pu Yang knew very well that with Axiu's wisdom and their deep affection, Axiu must know that she would definitely not agree to the invitation of the ministers, and the so-called minister will only exist in the mouths of the ministers.

Between them, there will be no third person to intervene in this life.

But, having said that, Axiu really doesn't care at all?

Pu Yang thought about it, if Axiu was the emperor, the ministers would try to add people to her over and over again... Pu Yang was very angry, not only angry, but also sour, as if pouring a whole jar of old vinegar.It's so sour that my heart will melt.

Just thinking about it makes her feel so uncomfortable, but Axiu is as unmoved as a mountain, and she is at ease.

Pu Yang became more and more sad.

In the next few days, it was Shangsi.

Every Shangsi, there will be a banquet in the palace, and all the ministers will be invited.

The banquet is held by the Taiye Pool, and there is a Liubei Pavilion beside the pool, where the monarchs and ministers can enjoy the elegant ceremony of Qushui Liubei.The Shangsi Festival is inherently elegant, except for the flowing water cups, there are also poems and essays, singing and dancing to add to the fun.Every year in Shangsi, there are banquets in the palace, and there are often talented people who write good sentences and stories, and spread the praises in Beijing.

No surprise this year.

Wei Xiu also attended such grand events.She is also a person with outstanding literary talent and a spring of ingenuity. She talks with people and speaks elegant sentences, and her deeds and words are quite fascinating.

At the beginning of the banquet, many talented people gathered beside Wei Xiu and asked her for advice.

Pu Yang was at the other end, joking with the ministers.From time to time, she kept an eye on Wei Xiu's side, and when she saw a smile on her face, she also bent her lips accordingly.

The banquet is held in the garden, where the green grass is stretching, the trees are towering, and the water in the pool is slightly rippling with the breeze, showing a beautiful color.Not far from the throne, a minister saw that the emperor was in a happy mood, so he picked up the wine bar and went forward with his son.

The minister was only forty years old, with a white face and a slight beard, and a dignified appearance. His son was also very beautiful, and he followed his father closely, dignified and dignified.

"Your Majesty." The minister saluted first.

Puyang looked over from Weixiu in a blink of an eye, seeing that it was Doctor Yushi, he smiled and said, "Liu Qing." Then he looked behind him, "Maybe this is Qing's beloved son?"

Doctor Yu Shi hurriedly said: "It's the dog, four at home." Then he turned sideways and asked the people behind him to come forward.

Liu Si took a small step forward, glanced at Puyang, with a look of admiration in his eyes, and hurriedly lowered his head, bowed down and bowed: "I pay homage to Your Majesty, I wish you a long and happy life."

"Excuse me." Pu Yang smiled, turned his head to order the servants behind him to come forward to offer wine, his eyes glanced at Wei Xiu's place, he had been talking to a man for a long time.Pu Yang recognized that person, he was the youngest son of the Princess of Anyi, surnamed Zhou, surnamed Chen, fond of poetry and prose, with a romantic nature, he took up the post of writer in the secretary supervisor, he was considered young and promising.

Zhou Chen had been in front of Wei Xiu since the banquet started, and by this time, the banquet was over, and he was still tired of being by Axiu's side.

Pu Yang frowned secretly, turned around and said calmly, "Give me wine."

Behind him, the servant came forward with a pot.

Doctor Yu Shi smiled again and again, Liu Si also showed a smile, and took another half step forward, toasting his birthday.

Pu Yang also made face to him and drank half a cup.

"Your Majesty, I heard that your majesty is good at painting and poetry, but I have clumsy works..." Liu Si drank his wine, relaxed a little, and began to talk.

Pu Yang couldn't bear to listen to his ramblings, his thoughts had already flown to Wei Xiu's place.

Zhou Chen beamed and kept his eyes on Wei Xiu. He held the cup in one hand and the jug in the other. After Wei Xiu said something, he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass. Wei Xiu smiled, and Zhou Chen immediately looked at her. The eyeballs are about to pop out.

Weixiu's cup is clear water, which was prepared by special order before the Puyang banquet.She is not good at drinking, and this is the case every time there is a banquet.

Zhou Chen was devastated, and eagerly wanted to fill up the wine cup for Wei Xiu, Pu Yang frowned, seeing what Wei Xiu said to him, he stopped pouring the pot, shook his head, and wanted to persuade him .

Do you bother?Axiu said no!Axiu only likes the clear water that I prepared with her!Pu Yang was very displeased.

Here Liu Si has finished reciting a poem, blushing, and said a little shyly: "What do you think of this poem, Your Majesty?"

Pu Yang had to come back to his senses, and said perfunctorily: "The poems and fus of this dynasty should be headed by Zhang Zi. Zhang Zi was invited by me to join the Chongwen Museum as a scholar. If you are interested, you may as well go and ask for advice."

Liu Si's ruddy face turned pale, and his expression immediately became forced: "The clumsy works of the minister will not come into the eyes of your majesty, and I will study hard when I go back."

Pu Yang smiled gratifiedly: "It's very good that Qing has the heart to compete for the top."

After she finished speaking, she looked over to Wei Xiu, only to see what Zhou Chen had said to convince Wei Xiu.Wei Xiu held the cup in front of her, allowing Zhou Chen to pour wine into her cup!
