[Qing Chuan] Qing Chuan Wu Shi

The ancients said: One day in the mountains, thousands of years in the world.Now Wu Ning has such a feeling: the scenery in the Old Summer Palace is really beautiful. Compared with the carved beams and painted buildings of Prince Yong's Mansion, the Old Summer Palace is far away.Because it was a garden rewarded by Kangxi, it cannot be rebuilt by hand, and it is precisely because of this that it has maintained its original style.

On this day, Wu Ning was surrounded by nuns, sitting under the rocks in the garden, smiling and seeing He Tian running around in front of him with a few little maidservants, flying a kite - the kite was also made by the fourth elder brother Su Peisheng these days. He sent it to Wu Ning in a hurry, saying that he was afraid that she would be bored in the garden, so he took a kite to fly, which is interesting and can move his legs and feet.

The kites are extremely delicate, with flowers of various colors, and also in the shape of butterflies and dragonflies. One of the peony kites has dew on the petals. The butterfly is even more beautiful, with fine lines on the wings and even the tentacles. It is very delicate, as if it came to life, the brushwork is delicate and smooth, but it has a strong smell of paint, and you can tell that it was done in a hurry.

Qingming accompanied Wu Ning at the side, while the two were talking, they saw a group of people hugging a sedan chair passing by the flowers and trees, Qingming had good eyesight, and said: "That's Li Fangfujin." Wu Ning looked at it from a distance Going over, he said: "Master took the two of us together, so it's naturally her." As soon as the words fell, the sedan chair turned back and walked in front of Wu Ning, Li Shi was helped down, Wu Ning Ning stepped forward to salute and said: "I have seen the side Fujin." Li Shi took a step forward, supported her and said, "Sister Wu, don't want to be born." Then he raised his head and looked at the kite in the sky, covering his eyes, and said: "This kite is really beautiful and vivid! Was it sent by the prince?"

He Tianzheng took the kite and came over to salute to Fujin, after hearing this, he blurted out: "Go back to Fujin, that's right." Seeing that she was so unruly, Qingming gave her a warning look.

Mrs. Li smiled, took Wu Ning's hand, walked slowly to one side of the padded rock and sat down: "Sister's luck is really good, our lord always cares about my sister, a few days ago At my place, I just saw Ergege playing with a kite, so I urged Xiao Laizi to quickly take out the butterfly kite, and it turned out that it was sent to my sister."

Wu Ning heard her talking about Er Gege, and smiled and said: "It's just that I miss the old love, and the side Fujin is a good fortune. Er Gege is more and more beautiful when she comes out." After hearing this, Li's smile faded After a while, a layer of worry appeared in her eyes, and she said: "I would rather hope that she will always be so small and not grow up.".

Mrs. Wu knew that she was worried about Er Gege's marriage, and it was inconvenient to say more, so she patted the back of Li's hand lightly and said, "Ci Fujin, don't worry, Er Gege is also the daughter of the prince. If the prince loves her so much, he will always..." , Mrs. Li understood Wu Ning's meaning, felt a little comforted in her heart, stared at the mottled flower shadows under the tree, nodded and said: "You are right." Then raised her hand and thumped her knee and said: "I am old, this I don’t dare to sit on the cool stone, for fear that my bones will hurt again.”

Wu Ning stood up with her and jokingly said: "How old are you? You are joking." The two were talking, when a burst of laughter came, they turned their heads and saw two little maids holding the The peony kite was thrown into the sky, but it couldn't fly.He Tian stomped his feet and said, "Stupid! Stupid! How can anyone fly a kite like this!", as he spoke, he raised the plum blossom kite in his hand to demonstrate an example.The two little maidservants looked at each other, and they ran along holding the peony kite together, stepping on the petals flying all the way, and falling flowers colorfully.

Mrs. Li looked at it with a smile, and slowly said: "When we first served the prince, we were in the same grade." Then he lowered his eyes and said, "There are only two of us in this garden. My sister is free, come to me." We haven't moved around here for a long time." Wu Ning said with a smile: "I'm afraid that when the time comes, Fujin thinks that I go every day, which is annoying." Li Shi slightly slapped her on the back of the hand and said: "Where is it?", stretched out his hand to be supported by the maidservant, walked a few steps, then turned around and smiled at Wu Ning, the smile contained more melancholy than joy.

Qingming saw that Mrs. Li was surrounded by everyone, got into the sedan chair, walked a long way, came over and held up a paper umbrella on Wu Ning's head, and said softly: "Master, Ci Fujin has gone back, let's go back too, here on the ground It's hot, the heat is steaming, don't hurt your body." Wu Ning nodded and said, "I think it's a little too much." He stretched out his hand to Qingming to support him, but felt a pain in his wrist. Looking down, he saw that his foot was already swollen A red patch the size of an egg.

Qingming was taken aback, and said: "It was probably bitten by poisonous insects! Hurry up and apply the ointment!" Wu Ning talked to Mrs. Li at the beginning, but he didn't pay attention to it. Now when Qingming reminded her, she felt itchy and painful. Unable to resist scratching it gently with her fingernails, Qingming hurriedly said: "Master, you can't touch it!", it was already too late, and the redness and swelling suddenly became more serious.

Jin Hua accompanied Li's sedan chair, and the two walked slowly along the path in the Old Summer Palace to their residence. Seeing that they were approaching, Li raised his hand to signal, and Jin Hua said, "Stop the sedan chair!".

The little eunuchs who carried the sedan chair gently and steadily dropped the sedan chair to the ground without shaking at all.Jin Hua helped Mrs. Li get off the sedan chair, and Mrs. Li said to the nuns who wanted to surround her, "I'll just go by myself." The nuns knew that their master and servant had something to say. Said, then stayed far away, keeping a distance to follow.

Jin Hua whispered to Li Shi: "Ci Fujin, although Wu Gege is loved by the prince, but he has no sons and no daughters, the stillbirth hurt his body last time, so there is nothing to be afraid of in the future." Li Shi glanced at her , said: "What am I afraid of her? In another ten or twenty years, can the prince still treat her like he is now?" After a moment of silence, he said: "She has a good temper, she has no evil intentions, and doesn't cause trouble , not coming out, the situation these years has been stabilized thanks to her. If it is replaced by the one who plays the flute in the palace, there will only be a show in this mansion!".

Jin Hua was slightly taken aback, and realized that she was referring to Geng Gege, and quickly said: "What is the identity of Ce Fujin? How can that courtyard be compared with you?" Li Shi listened silently, and said after a while: "What am I? Status? It's just the mother of a few children, the prince's kindness to me is also for the sake of the children, even if he praised me back then, it was only for the sake of the children." Jin Hua dared not speak again.

As the two talked, they had already climbed the bluestone steps, and Li stretched out his hand to caress the stone blue pillars, thinking about the various moods of his [-] years old, when he was a charming daughter, and was slightly fascinated.

Wu Ning returned to her residence, Qingming hurriedly picked out cold ointment to wait for her to rub on, He Tian saw the redness, but stopped him and said: "No! There is poisonous juice in it, you have to squeeze it out." He took the embroidered silver Needle, lit the fire pocket, and repeatedly lit it with the flame, Qingming looked at it, couldn't help but said: "You don't want to mess around!", couldn't help but said to Wu Ning: "Master, if it doesn't work, we still Please come doctor!", Wu Ning has already stretched out his hand to He Tian, ​​and He Tian holds a silver needle in his hand, aiming at the red, swollen and shiny place and stabbing lightly, immediately a glistening transparent venom flowed out, and the red and swollen place immediately deflated Going down, Hetian put down the silver needle, took the ointment in Qingming's hand, carefully picked it out with a small spoon, put it on Wu Ning, and wrapped it with gauze layer by layer, Wu Ning only felt a sense of coolness pouring into it Skin, the painful and itchy feeling disappeared immediately.

Qingming glanced at He Tian, ​​clapped his hands and laughed and said: "It's terrible, Dr. Erzong will have an extra apprentice!" He Tian smiled and pulled off the veil to wipe off the ointment left on his hand, and said to Wu Ning: " When I was a child in my hometown, I was often bitten by this kind of insect in summer."Qingming pushed her lightly and said: "Open the dyeing workshop after giving the color! Hurry up and prepare the cold noodles that the master wants tonight." Wu Ning said: "No hurry, anyway, I sat outside for a while, just watching them put I don’t move the kite much, and I don’t have much appetite right now.” The two were talking, but Su Peisheng was notified outside.

Wu Ning got up and went out, Su Peisheng saluted Wu Ning in the courtyard, and said with a smile: "Master Wu, this slave is following the prince's wishes to pick up the master and go to the Weaving Pavilion." Wu Ning was stunned, and said: "Go there What?" Su Peisheng said: "The lord only ordered the slaves to come and pick them up, and he didn't tell the slaves anything else, and the slaves didn't dare to ask." Wu Ning thought for a while and said: "Please wait a moment, Mr. Su, I will clean up. Let’s go.” Su Peisheng hurriedly backed away, and said with a smile: “Naturally! Naturally!”.

Wu Ning went back to the back room, thinking that there were too many mosquitoes at night, so he changed into a small-sleeve flag dress, tightened the cuffs tightly, and put on some mosquito-proof plaster, not letting go of his neck and hands before taking the Qingming lotus field with him. out the door.

When Su Peisheng came, there was still a red sun like a duck's egg yolk hanging on the sunset sky. By the time Wu Ning packed up, the sky had already turned blue-gray, and the sunset glow had faded completely, leaving only a pale moonlight shining through the clouds. It slowly came out, and the evening breeze was mixed with the fragrance of flowers and trees. The Old Summer Palace is actually not far from Prince Yong's Mansion, but perhaps because of the scenery of the lake and mountains, when I looked up to the sky, I felt that the stars all over the sky were much clearer.

Wu Ning went out and got into the sedan chair, Qingming followed beside the sedan chair, and He Tian and the two supported her to sit firmly before ordering someone to get up the sedan chair. Su Peisheng deliberately chose the road with prosperous scenery and smooth road, and then slightly It was a bit detoured, and it took a long time to faintly see the Geng Zhi Xuan behind a large lake.

The lake is actually not shallow, but because of the clear water quality, you can almost count the pebbles at the bottom of the river one by one when you are on the shore. , the river gurgled and flowed from above, just listening to the sound made me feel cool, a dragonfly touched the water, and both of them flew low. When Wu Ning was looking down at the beautiful scenery, he heard the voice of the fourth elder brother laughing: "Let your father wait for a while." Finally came." Su Peisheng hurriedly apologized.
