Love in the Red Chamber, Drunken Water, Jade Dream

When Daiyu and Tanchun arrived at the Dongping Palace with Mrs. Wang and Tanchun, there were already many Mrs. Gaoming in the back hall, and the room was full of beautiful women.

After meeting each other, Mrs. Wang and Concubine Dongping exchanged a few words, then sat on the side, chatting with the rest of the family. Mu Yao came over for a while, and went to greet the rest of the people.

Concubine Nan and Jia's mansion on one side were already familiar, everyone was talking and laughing together, after lunch, Mu Yao came over with a smile, and said to Daiyu: "Miss Lin, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon, I didn't have time just now Accompany you, let me, the host, do my best to be a landlord this time."

Daiyu said softly: "Don't dare to bother the princess." Mu Yao smiled and said: "Miss Lin, you don't have to be so polite, to be honest, I still have to thank you very much."

Daiyu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Mu Yao with some doubts in her watery clear eyes. Mu Yao came to her senses and hurriedly smiled to cover up: "I'm talking about changing strings with the girl last time."

Daiyu said: "Daiyu should be the one to thank, the princess's string can be exchanged for a lot of ordinary bracelets like Daiyu." Mu Yao said with a smile: "Let's not talk about these, let me take you to the yard to have a look .”

However, Tanchun was dragged by Concubine Nan'an to talk, so he had to smile apologetically at Daiyu, Mu Yao and Concubine Nan'an joked a few words, dragged Daiyu and said, "Let's go."

This is the first time for Daiyu to come to Dongping Palace. Mu Yao in front is wearing a formal attire that looks like a concubine Yang.

The two talked and looked at the surrounding scenery, Zijuan and the others followed behind, thinking of the peony that they saw that time, Daiyu couldn't help sighing in her heart.

Naturally, Mu Yao didn't know this, and said to Daiyu with great interest: "Look at that ancient tree, I heard it's hundreds of years old, and it was planted by Grandpa Taizu at the beginning, and these leaves are said to be used as medicine."

Daiyu reached out to pick off a leaf, and the emerald jade bracelet flashed on her slender jade wrist. Mu Yao took a quiet look, and an undetectable expression crossed her face.

Lifting the handkerchief and wiping the corners of her mouth, Mu Yao deliberately said: "Miss Lin's bracelet is really special." Daiyu is also a smart person, so she naturally understood the meaning of Mu Yao's words, and said lightly: "The bracelet sent by the princess is It's a precious thing, Daiyu told them to put it away, besides, the skewer doesn't match today's clothes, so I changed it to something else."

Mu Yao said with a smile: "Miss Lin is overthinking, I don't mean that." Daiyu also laughed and said: "Daiyu doesn't mean that either." Looking at each other, Mu Yao said: "It's really fun talking to Miss Lin."

A servant girl ran over in a hurry and said to Mu Yao: "Princess, I brought the gift list from the Northern Palace." Mu Yao's face turned red slightly, and she reprimanded in a low voice: "What are you yelling about? What's the matter with me."

The servant girl took a look at Daiyu, and said in an embarrassing manner: "Servant..." Handing over a post, the servant girl said: "This is the gift list that the butler asked the servant to show the Princess."

Mu Yao took it lightly, her reddened face became thicker, Daiyu deliberately took a step back as if avoiding it, pretending to look at the leaves, only to hear Mu Yao's disappointed voice saying: "That's all."

The servant girl said: "I don't know, this is from the housekeeper." Without making a sound, Mu Yao handed the post to the servant girl and said, "Okay, you can go back."

Turning her head, Mu Yao said to Daiyu: "Let's go, let's go over there and have a look." Although Mu Yao concealed it well, the careful Daiyu still saw a trace of disappointment in her beautiful eyes.

Seeing that Mu Yao was a little absent-minded, Daiyu was not in high interest at all, and the two of them lazily and perfunctorily came to the depths of the backyard.

The garden of the East Mansion has a feeling of winding paths leading to secluded places. As Mu Yao walked slowly, he saw rockery and ancient trees, green pools and red pavilions. Although it is smaller than the Grand View Garden, it is a palace after all, and it has its own unique feeling. different atmosphere.

Pointing to the rockery covered with vines in front of her, Mu Yao said, "Miss Lin, look, this kind of vines are called Bauhinia, and they come in two seasons every spring and autumn..." Just as she was speaking, she saw a little maid running over and whispering to the maid behind Mu Yao. whispered a few words.

The servant girl thought for a while, and said to Mu Yao: "Princess, the old concubine asked Xi'er to invite the princess to come over, saying that the wife of Pingyuanhou's residence wants to see the princess."

Mu Yao's face was slightly sullen, and she said: "I'm accompanying a guest." The servant girl gave Mu Yao a wink, and said in a low voice, "That's what the concubine ordered."

Daiyu said softly at the side: "Princess, go and have a look." Mu Yao pretended to be apologetic, but she heard Daiyu smile lightly, and said: "But I have to trouble some sister to take us back, I'm afraid This yard is so big, I lost my way."

Mu Yao smiled and said: "Miss is so smart, how can she get lost, but the concubine called me, Miss Lin, I will go and have a look." Turning her head, Mu Yao said to the little maid: "Xi'er, Send Miss Lin back to the back hall for a rest."

Xi'er responded, and said to Daiyu and Zijuan: "Girl, please." Seeing Daiyu and the others walking away, Mu Yao's servant girl said in a low voice: "Princess, Xi'er said that the North Lord and the Prince will go together The old concubine went to pay her respects, and the princess didn't want to go and have a look."

Mu Yao shyly smiled, and said in a low voice: "You girl, how dare you spread rumors, see if I don't tear your mouth." The servant girl smiled and said: "The princess is still going, and I will tear up the servant girl after reading it." It's not too late."

The autumn afternoon wind blows lazily, gentle and refreshing. Xi'er is a lively little girl, chattering non-stop on the road, passing through a stone path, there are several rockeries in front of her, and a pool of green water behind her. Sparkling in the sun.

A woman was walking over with difficulty carrying a food box, saw Xi'er and said, "Xi'er, help me, just send it to the west hall, it won't take much time for you."

Looking at Daiyu in embarrassment, Xi'er said: "Mother Du, the princess asked me to send Miss Lin..." The old woman was probably really a little bit overwhelmed, so she smiled humbly at Daiyu and said, "Can you Please wait a moment, girl."

Although Daiyu was somewhat aloof, she was sympathetic to the servants, she smiled lightly and said: "Everyone says that the autumn water is clean, I'll take a look at the scene by the pool, you guys go quickly."

Xi'er was an enthusiastic person. Hearing what Daiyu said, she hurried forward to lift up the food box with her mother-in-law, and said to Zijuan, "Sister, wait a minute, I'll be over in a while."

Supporting Daiyu and walking a few steps forward, Zijuan said: "Girl, there is a corridor in front of us, let's sit there for a while." Nodding, Daiyu and the others just passed by, but heard chaos from the other side of the rockery. There were footsteps, followed by a suppressed voice: "What do you want to do, let me tell you, I am the dignified Marquis of Pingyuan. If I lose a hair, I believe no one will be able to explain it."

Hearing a faint sneer, Daiyu felt a little familiar, and then said in a calm voice: "Is that so, the dignified Marquis of Pingyuan secretly followed an opera official to someone's backyard to do something, spread the word Well, old Hou Ye, a person who cares about face, heard it, maybe he would be furious... This matter is not good for the face of the family, not to mention, who knows that Qi Guan is my king's man, and Hou Ye is carrying this king's face behind his back. Doing this matter, did you ever put this king in your eyes."

"Qiguan" Daiyu suddenly remembered that Baoyu's beating was related to a person named "Qiguan". Unexpectedly, what happened today was because of this "Qiguan".
