Ruoying flowers bloom

The fragrant breath lingered at the tip of her nose, Chu Yingxue looked at Qingxiang who was close to her, her eyes were calm: "You danced well."

"Sister, didn't you always want to learn dancing a few years ago? My sister carefully looked at the people in Yingshoufang, and Qingxiang was the most outstanding. Why don't you accept her as a court lady?" Hua Yixue looked at Chu Ying. Xue's eyes were clear, but Chu Yingxue thought of something else.

Subconsciously, she refused.

"Yixue, I appreciate your kindness, but I don't want to learn to dance now. Qingxiang is a dancer, and dancing is her soul. Being by my side will imprison her freedom." Is it Chunyu's again? Instigate?What else does she want to do?

"Sister, Haruka's appearance is the most beautiful among these dancers. Even if she doesn't learn to dance, she is very comfortable to watch by your side. The ladies around you are all over 25 years old, and they can't be with you. forever."

"Yixue, dancing in neon clothes and feather clothes has consumed too much of your mind. You haven't touched the pipa for a long time." Chu Yingxue stood up, took Hua Yixue's hand and said, "I want to hear you play the pipa, let's go." ..."

Hua Yixue didn't break free, she strode forward following Chu Yingxue's steps, without turning back, but the maids said loudly: "You stay here and guard, my princess wants to discuss the rhythm with my sister."

"Yes."

Walking into Miaoyin Pavilion, Chu Yingxue asked openly, "You know everything?"

She is not a fool to actually give her a beautiful dancer, since Yi Xue insisted on giving Qingxiang to her, it must be Chunyu that told Yi Xue something.

"I... sister, I don't know anything..." Hua Yixue pretended to be calm and said.

"Oh, if you don't know, you know. Between you and me, why do you have to be so secretive? What do you want to say, what do you want to do, just say it." The tone was a bit cold, and Chunyu Yan didn't mind, but Yi Xue was with her. The good sisters and best friends who grew up together, is she going to be cast aside by the whole world just because she likes a woman?

"Sister, although Qingxiang's appearance is not as good as Liuyun Qingruo's, she can dance and play the zither. If she is by your side, she will definitely be better than Liuyun Qingruo by your side." Xue was amused by what she said, so this idiot actually wanted Haruka to be her mistress?

"So, Qingxiang also knows that I like women?" Chu Yingxue's eyes flashed a moment of complexity. Her secret would not only ruin her reputation, but also put Qiong Ruo in danger.

"No, no, Haruka doesn't know. How could I tell her such a thing? Sister, after you got married, Haruka followed you. She is your maid. I believe she will only obey you and will not do anything against you. Something..." Hua Yixue's wishful thinking was well planned, she wholeheartedly wanted to make Chu Yingxue transfer her love to another person, so she found a candidate in just one day.

"Yixue, you are so stupid!" That's what she thought.

"Sister, mother concubine, she didn't do it on purpose. As a woman of Chunyu's family, she knows more than ordinary people, and naturally she has more burdens. I have been friends with you for nine years, and we share weal and woe. She is just trying to find a safe way out for herself. What she did was wrong, but she just wants to live! Sister, I have talked with the concubine mother, and the concubine mother did not intend to harm you, she just wants you to see clearly what you are doing now In such a situation, she did not hesitate to lose ten years of her life to divination for you with her own essence and blood, and finally calculated the eight-character mantra. Sister, Chunyu’s family’s hexagrams will not make mistakes, this is God’s will..." Chu Yingxue’s heart was shocked, Ten years off?

Why would anyone be willing to do such a crazy thing for her?

Is it because she pretended to be an angel?

"Yixue, why do you all bring me down that road? The last thing I want is power. My queen mother is greedy and cruel because she got the queen's throne, and she walked towards destruction step by step. I want What I want is a stable family, not a chess game where everyone is involved, I can't afford it, you know?"

"But sister, if Liu Yunqing is... sister, there are so many women in the world, she is not the only one. If sister needs it, sister is willing to find it for you..."

"I fell in love with a woman because of her, not because I like a woman. Perhaps, without her, I would be no different from you. Find a man who is pleasing to my eyes and spend my whole life. Yi Xue, you understand what I say Is it?" Chu Yingxue picked up the zither and played it slowly.

What is being played is the song in the palace played by the zither ensemble.

The original song is called Love in Troubled Times, and their song seems to be Love in Troubled Times as well.

It's just that everyone is obsessed with the illusion of the prosperous age, but they don't know the wind, frost, sword, conspiracy and tricks hidden under the prosperity of the prosperous age.

"Sister, sister knows, I won't stop you anymore. Neither the concubine nor I will hurt you or reveal your secrets. It's just that you really have to think about your own situation carefully. If you don’t do it, no one will let you go, can you really protect yourself and Qi Xue properly now?” The last words came in an extremely low voice.

She was talking about Qi Xue.

"I will." Now, her biggest threat is Hua frivolity.

But if she defeats him, she can never look back.

The intermittent sound of the pipa sounded, and Hua Yixue's hands were a little raw after she hadn't practiced for a long time. After listening to the tune played by Chu Yingxue a few times, she started to play it slowly.

The zither and the pipa sang together without stopping for a long time, and in the end Haruka did not go to Huaxiu Palace as Hua Yixue wished.

A day is fleeting, and it is the Qixi Festival in a blink of an eye.

The wounds on Chu Yingxue's face had all faded away, and Xue Yuexu in Cold Spring Palace was unusually quiet, without any dissatisfaction, as if she was really thinking behind closed doors.

This time the competition venue was not in the Qionghua Palace, Hua Qingwei ordered everyone to present gifts in public at the Tanabata dinner.

Sitting next to Hua Qingwei was Lan Pinxue Shimei, not Mu Wanluo who had just been promoted to imperial concubine.

It is said that Concubine Shu Gui has been ill in bed all this time, because the emperor once again took pity on her, so her condition has improved.

The huge wooden box was carried up by the eunuch, followed by a man who was exactly Shuiliuchuan.

"The first group No. [-] Water Flow River, kowtow to the Emperor Hua, Princess Yingxue.

"Shuiliuchuan in Tianwu City presents Princess Shuiyun Zheng. Shuiyun Zheng was made by Shuiyun Old Man. Shuiyun Old Man is obsessed with rhythm and likes musical instruments. Every musical instrument in this life must be perfect, and there is only one There is no second place." Eunuch Feng, who had always only read imperial decrees, became Chu Yingxue's gift speaker, and many people looked at Chu Yingxue with envious eyes.

In fact, Chu Yingxue would not rate the gifts on the spot at the banquet, it was just Hua Qingwei's leisure time for fun.

In this ingenious competition for choosing a son-in-law, men from all over the world came here to run around for Yingxue. Although the candidate had already been decided, Hua Qingwei felt that his face was infinitely honored.

His daughter is an envoy of God, how can princesses from other countries compare with Yingxue?

"Lu Yunjia, No. [-] of the third group, presents the princess with a hundred-flower dress. The hundred-flower dress is a spice extracted from a hundred kinds of fragrant flowers. It is dissolved in the cloth when weaving and does not disperse for a long time. This dress is worn on the body. Not afraid of mosquito bites."

"No. [-] of the sixth group is floating in the clouds and far away, offering..." Eunuch Feng hesitated for a moment and said, "Make a delicious cake by yourself."

Hua Qingwei asked curiously, "What is this cake?"

Sitting in the guest seats of the four countries, Liuyun Qingyuan got up, held the box and said with a smile: "The cake is a delicious food made of ingredients such as milk, sugar, eggs, jam, fruit, etc. Please take a look..."

After finishing speaking, Liu Yunqingyuan came out and gently untied the rope on the cake box, and then took off the wide cover above, a big colorful cake appeared in front of everyone.

"Food? Prince Qingyuan's idea is amazing, and this cake is something I have never heard of or seen before."

"Father, since this gift is food, it is better to share it and eat it. If it is delicious, my daughter can learn to cook for Father in the future." Hua Qingwei clapped his hands and said yes, and the eunuch on the side walked forward with a silver needle go.

The cake was made by Liuyun Qiongruo himself, except that Liuyun Qingyuan did not go through the hands of a second person, so there is nothing unusual about it.

Hua Qingkuang, who was silent at the side, suddenly said: "After all, this food didn't come from the imperial dining room, why don't the palace people try it first, just in case."

After Hua frivolously finished speaking, an eunuch behind him saluted Hua Qingwei.

Liuyun Qingyuan was not dissatisfied when he heard this, but said loudly: "You can try it, but this red heart represents the heart, it is for Yingxue... sister, others can't eat it."

In fact, he almost said sister-in-law Yingxue just now, but fortunately he didn't say it.

Although Qingruo is very confident to win, and he is also very confident in Qingruo, but Qingruo warned him not to say too many hateful things, so he can only calm down and give Ying for his brother. Snow 'sister' kept that heart.

Hua Qingwei was stunned, and then said to the eunuch, "Go and try a piece."

"Yes." The little eunuch walked to the cake, picked up a wooden knife, bent a piece gently, and began to eat.

Hua Qingkuang narrowed his eyes slightly, and there will be a good show soon.

However, he was disappointed.

The eunuch walked back to him, and there was no poison all the time.

This person is not a real eunuch, his name is Yi Wei, but a Jianghu man with superb medical skills he took in.

"Qingruo, cut a piece for His Majesty Huahuang and Sister Yingxue, I can't do it well." Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Liuyun Qingyuan entrusted Liuyun Qiongruo with the responsibility of cutting the cake.

The latter stood up, bowed to Hua Qingwei, and then took a wooden knife across the cake for a while.

The piece of cake that belonged to Hua Qingwei had several small flowers of different colors on it, while the piece that belonged to Chu Yingxue had a small beige-colored flower next to a red love heart.

"Please Huahuang and Princess Yingxue to taste." Liuyun Qiongruo smiled lightly as there was a vague smell in the air.

Bug carving tricks!

The rest of the cake was also distributed to everyone, and Hua Qingkuang, as the crown prince, naturally got a large piece, which was white and black, and he didn't eat it, but looked at Hua Qingwei anxiously from the corner of his eye.

Why, obviously Yi Wei was poisoned, but he didn't get poisoned?

Was poison sprinkled on this so-called cake?

Yi Wei has been by his side for a while, and he has always planned to use Yi Wei to deal with Yingxue.

This scene happened suddenly today, and he had a thought in his heart, if Yi Wei tasted it at the son-in-law banquet and got poisoned, then Yingxue would definitely be angered by her father.

However, he failed.

The maid waiter Hua Qingwei ate a small red flower, Hua Qingwei frowned, it was indeed delicious, but too sweet.

Yingxue and the other princesses, who glanced aside, ate a few mouthfuls. He didn't like the girl's taste.

Immediately, he didn't signal the maid to wait for him to eat again: "This thing is very wonderful, but the gentleman is far away from the cook, why did you come up with the idea of ​​making cakes as a gift, Prince Qingyuan?"

"Back to Huahuang, my distant cousin in Qingyuan loves sweets since she was a child. When she eats sweets, all her boudoir friends also eat with her. So I thought that Princess Yingxue must also like sweets, so I begged Look at my brother, let him teach me how to make cakes. Who stipulates that men can’t cook? My brother’s cooking skills are amazing, he can cook sweet, salty, spicy.” As we talked, the topic continued. It was attracted to Liuyun Qiongruo.

Hua Qingwei coughed uncomfortably, it seemed that Prince Qingyuan participated in the competition just to promote his younger brother.

Temperament, archery, arithmetic, cooking, what else does Liu Yunqingruo know?

It seems that he still needs to warn Yingxue not to have a good impression of Liu Yunqingruo.

Or, let Yingxue choose Prince Qingyuan in the end, and then have a brother-in-law fight...

Hua Qingwei's heart beat a side drum.
