Dai Meng of the Red Chamber

The other courtyard is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery and beautiful trees. Walking out of the yard slowly, Shui Rong said with a smile: "Come on, let's go to the pond at the back and have a look. Don't you like Li Yishan's poem, 'Autumn shadows never leave' The frost flies late, leaving the lotus to listen to the rain', the tenants in the pond planted a lot of lotus, and the lotus root used for lunch was just fished out of the pond."

Daiyu said: "Really, Guai Dao tastes refreshing and delicious." Shui Rong smiled indulgently, and said: "I told you earlier that maybe you ate too much, didn't you?"

Daiyu smiled coquettishly, and while they were talking, they saw a large expanse of clear water rushing in front of them, the lotus had long been ruined, and there were only green leaves floating on it. On the east bank of the pool, a small wooden boat Moored there quietly, beside the boat, a man in coarse cloth was sitting there fishing leisurely, surrounded by a sense of leisure.

"One coir, one hat and one lonely boat, one fisherman and one hook." Daiyu chanted softly, "One clap, one chant and one smile, one old man fished one river autumn alone." Shui Rong continued with a smile, and said, "Hair , when the court is free in the future, we will come to live here, and I am also fishing by the pond, so you stay with me."

Daiyu said fascinatedly: "At that time, the setting sun was shining warmly, the water in the pool was clear and there was no trace, and a burst of fragrance wafted towards my face. It turned out that the lotus not far away was blooming." Then she said with a smile: "Then we will not become fishermen and fishermen Mother."

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Daiyu was stunned for a moment, feeling that the words were familiar, and then remembered that she had made fun of Baoyu wearing the coir raincoat, and unexpectedly married the king of Beijing who gave him the coir raincoat a few years later. It turns out that the original fisherman meant something else.

Seeing Daiyu's erratic expression, Shui Rong said softly: "Xiao'er, what are you thinking about?" Looking up at Shui Rong with slanted eyebrows in front of her temples and phoenix eyes full of affection, Daiyu said in a low voice: "I think of the past for a while. Yiqing, there are some things that seem to be preordained long ago, but we can't think of them."

Shui Rong smiled slightly, and said: "Unexpectedly, my words would elicit so many emotions from Mao'er, but if Mao'er really becomes a fisherman, can the fish still take the bait?"

Daiyu looked at Shui Rong with some puzzlement, only to hear Shui Rong teasingly say with a smile: "They have already sunk to the bottom of the water." Turning her clear eyes, Daiyu suddenly understood, and said coquettishly: "As long as you can think Come out, with my ugly appearance, it is not a sinking fish but a frightening fish."

Shui Rong said confidently: "If you dare to say that my frown is ugly, even the person who really sinks the fish is not as good as the frown." Daiyu said in a low voice: "Okay, be careful to let others hear it, you don't I blush even when I blush."

Putting away his playful expression, Shui Rong said: "Xiaoer, let's go, let's go over there and have a look."

The two were about to go forward, but they saw the chief manager of the other courtyard rushing over. After seeing the ceremony, he said to Shui Rong: "My lord, the general guard of Gyeonggi said that his family's eyes didn't know Mount Tai on the way, and they bumped into the lord, so they came here in person." Pleading guilty to the prince, waiting outside the gate of the courtyard."

Shui Rong and Daiyu looked at each other, and then said calmly: "Go and tell him, this king is not free today, let him go back."

The manager: "This..." Shui Rong Qingjun's complexion couldn't help but darken, and he said sharply: "Don't you understand what this king said?"

The manager was about to leave, only to hear Shui Rong say again: "From now on, you should restrain me a little while here, I have heard a lot about you, if this continues, then don't blame me for not remembering the old love .”

The manager responded in panic, and trotted away.

Turning around, Shui Rong laughed at himself and said to Daiyu: "He is still a smart man, he must have been terrified when he heard that he had offended the cold-faced King of Beijing Jing, he was afraid that I would settle accounts with him in the future, so he hurried to come here in person Take the thorn and plead guilty, Yaner, I am right."

Daiyu smiled slightly and said: "It's a pity that he doesn't know, this is exactly the situation that that cold-faced King of Beijing deliberately set up, isn't it, Yiqing." .”

Looking up at Shui Rong's calm and breezy appearance, Daiyu said: "I just don't understand why you didn't see me again." Shui Rong said: "Silly boy, he will definitely come."

The two walked slowly along the pond, the slight wind blew by, the clear water rippled on the lotus pond, and the water melted and said jokingly: "'The face is greasy and fragrant, it seems to be affectionate, what is lighter in the world? Look, there is a crystal in the jasper plate', Maoer, didn't you have the name of Concubine Xiaoxiang before, how about you go and get a crystal."

Daiyu blushed, and then she pretended to be angry and said, "I didn't expect you to learn to make fun of me." After speaking, she turned around and walked back. After walking a few steps, she was pulled back by Shui Rong, and said, "Okay Come on, stop making trouble, there is no one coming over there."

Looking up, he saw that not far away, the manager who had reported back and forth just now was walking towards this side accompanied by a burly man.

Gently retreated behind Shui Rong, only to hear the man's rough voice: "The last general Du Shouzhong pays his respects to the prince and concubine."

Putting away the relaxed expression just now, Su Rong's handsome face returned to his usual calm and breezy face, his slender phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and Su Rong said indifferently: "General Du chased me to Bieyuan to see this king, but there is a soldier in the country. event."

Du Shouzhong sneered and said: "The general accused the prince of disturbing the prince and the princess." He continued: "The general knew that Jia Xiao had offended the prince and the princess just now on the road, and the general was deeply disturbed, so he came here to plead guilty. I also ask the lord and princess to look at the face of the little ones who don't know Mount Tai, and forgive me."

Seeing the expressionless expression on Shui Rongqingjun's face, Du Shouzhong said again: "The general specially prepared a small gift to express his apology."

He snorted softly, covered his water-soluble face with frost, and said sharply: "General Du, the emperor severely punishes the officials for bribery. Today you blatantly gave gifts to this king. Aren't you afraid that this king will punish you for a crime you knowingly committed?"

Du Shouzhong hurriedly said in a low voice: "My lord, please forgive me. This is just a little apology from the general for what happened just now. It definitely doesn't mean what my lord said. Please learn from me."

Smiling coldly, Shui Rong said: "If it wasn't for your devotion to your duties, this king would definitely hand you over to the Ministry of Punishment today. Well, this king is in a good mood today, and I don't want to pursue it. You can go. "

Du Shouzhong wanted to say more, but Shui Rong waved his hand lightly, and said solemnly: "General Du, on the fifth day of March this year, you privately transferred a few guards and got the benefit of 200 taels of silver. In the name of holding a birthday party, I received nearly 500 taels of gift money from my subordinates, and..."

Shui Rong said slowly, the sweat on Du Shouzhong's face was getting more and more, and he didn't dare to wipe it off blatantly. Not lightly, touching his forehead from time to time.

Daiyu quietly looked at Shui Rong's dignified and serious handsome face from behind, put away the tenderness and pampering she had just had with herself, and at this time Shui Rong's face had an awe-inspiring majesty and arrogance, and the slightly raised His handsome eyebrows, and his glances from time to time, made people unconsciously feel a kind of timidity.

Suddenly, Shui Rong changed the subject and said: "However, in general, General Du is still a responsible person. The last time the hungry people caused trouble, it was thanks to you that you were calm in the face of danger and commanded well. There is also a garrison change, if you can withstand the unreasonable demands of Lord Zhongshun, and insist on changing defenses regularly, you are still doing your duty."

After a pause, Shui Rong said: "The purpose of this king's words is to make General Du understand that if people don't know, unless they do nothing, whether it is good or bad, this king and the emperor will know it, as long as you act fairly and abide by the law , have a clear conscience, don’t worry about anything else, the guarding of the capital is my job, I don’t want to see any mistakes, whether it’s people or things, does General Du know?”

It was the first time to see Shui Rong dealing with business in front of her, with her natural domineering, confident look, attitude of kindness and power, and loud tone of voice, Daiyu couldn't help feeling an indescribable pride in her heart, she looked at Shui Rong His eyes gradually softened.

Waving his hand, Shui Rong said, "Go back, and take away your gift list. If you continue to entangle, don't blame me for turning your face." The expression made Du Shouzhong feel a chill in his heart.

After walking a few steps, a water-soluble voice came from behind: "I don't care about today's affairs, General Du, please relax."

Somewhat pleasantly surprised, Du Shouzhong then turned around and said in a convincing manner: "The last general thanked you, my lord."

Looking back, Shui Rong saw that Daiyu was staring at him without blinking, Qingling's face had a different kind of brilliance, she smiled slightly, and Shui Rong said, "What are you looking at?"

Withdrawing her eyes, Daiyu said with a smile: "I'm looking at Yiqing." Raising her plain hand, Daiyu gently stroked her water-melting jade face in disbelief, and said in a low voice: "Yiqing, you It really surprised me, how easy it is to convince him with both kindness and power, I really didn't expect it."

Shui Rong came to his senses, held Daiyu's raised hand, and said with a smile: "Fool, this little thing surprises you, your husband has been able to support the Beifu and rule the court for many years, don't you believe in my ability?"

With a low smile, Daiyu said: "It's just a boast, and you are self-righteous again." Shui Rong pulled Daiyu up and smiled, "Go, don't let what happened just now disturb our mood, let's sink the fish."

After thinking for a while, Daiyu understood the meaning of Shui Rong's words, and smiled back: "It's better to go to Luoyan."

After having dinner in the other courtyard, Shui Rong said with a smile: "Xiao'er, come on, let's play chess again, it's the same as last time, if I lose, I have to ask you a word, I can't say anything insincere."

Daiyu smiled lightly and said: "You are so sure, I don't know who will win and who will lose." Shui Rong smiled and said: "I let you last time." There is a feeling of suddenly dreaming.

The light was soft and warm, and when she glanced at the water on the opposite side, Daiyu couldn't help thinking of what happened last year. Under the same light, she was also giving Baoyu as a gift, but at that time her heart was confused, feeling that the world was big and the future was boundless. Here, Baoyu is still the gift, but there is no more confusion in my heart. No matter what happens in the future, the person opposite will definitely accompany me.

Seeing that Daiyu was in a trance, Shui Rong said in a low voice: "Xiao'er, what are you thinking about? After I noticed it, you often look in a trance."

After waking up, Daiyu said softly: "Things are people and people are not yesterday, and my thoughts are different. Yiqing, I was thinking, but I never thought that you would accompany me twice when I sent Baoyu on a long journey."

Shui Rong, who wiped away the haze from his heart, smiled lowly, and said: "There are some things you can't believe, I'm destined to be the one who is by your side, now and in the future."

Daiyu said coquettishly: "I'm self-righteous again." Shui Rong said: "Wrong, this is not self-righteous, this must be the truth." With a smile, Shui Rong looked at the chessboard and said: "Xiaoer, you lost."

Daiyu suddenly said coquettishly: "This game is not counted. I was only talking about it just now. Who knows your way. Try again." Shui Rong looked at Daiyu dotingly, and said: "If you play again, you will lose. I let you in the past, you really thought you could beat me."

Daiyu said: "I don't care, let's play another game." Shui Rong smiled slyly and said: "Okay, I promise you, but if you lose again, it's not a matter of answering me."

After another battle, Shui Rong was merciless and pressing every step of the way. Slowly, Daiyu couldn't handle it. Seeing Daiyu's impatient expression, Shui Rong smiled leisurely: "Don't worry, Xiaoer, don't worry. Think slowly, the sky is still long."

Putting down a chess piece, Daiyu suddenly said in a soft voice: "Yiqing, if I lose, what do you want to ask me?" Shui Rong smiled and said nothing, and Daiyu couldn't help but said coquettishly: "Then I won't play anymore, anyway, I'm still here now." If you didn’t lose, it’s not like you won.”

Shui Rong said: "You have already lost a game, don't play tricks, maybe you can't afford to lose." Daiyu smiled and said: "I can't afford to lose, so what can you do, if you don't tell me, then I will really lose." I can't afford to lose."

Seeing that his agitation didn't work, Shui Rong smiled slightly and said: "Well, you are not only tricky, but now you are a rascal. It seems that you have really grown up in the past few days when I was injured."

Daiyu said: "Not yet..." Suddenly there was a soft noise outside, followed by Ziyang's sharp voice: "Who?" Zijuan ran in in a panic, and saw Daiyu and Shui Rong looking at him calmly and calmly. There was no trace of panic on the chessboard.

Putting down a sunspot, Shui Rong said softly: "Xiao'er, are you afraid?" Picking up the white coin, Daiyu said as if no one was there: "Yiqing, with you by my side, I have nothing to be afraid of."

Smiling softly, Shui Rong said: "Treat it calmly, not afraid in the face of danger, my frown is more and more impressive to me." Looking at Shui Rong, Dai Yu said softly: "Don't be surprised by favor or humiliation, there is a limit to advancing and retreating, and Yiqing is getting more and more mature." The more I admire it."

Seeing Shui Rong and Daiyu's unhurried questioning and answering, Zijuan suddenly felt at ease, and quietly withdrew, the room was still quiet.
