Princess Jinyang of the Tang Dynasty

Li Mingda is sitting next to Princess Chengyang, introducing a new dish 'Fengjianxiao' to Princess Chengyang, telling her that this dish originated from Mrs. Lu.After Chengyang Princess tasted it, she sighed that the taste was wonderful, and asked how to make it.

Li Mingda said with a smile: "The sixteenth sister should have a good life and ask Mrs. Lu for advice. Don't forget to return the thank you gift."

Mrs. Lu heard about it at this time, she hurriedly got up and came over to express that she didn't need it, and then she told Princess Chengyang what to do.

Princess Chengyang lamented Mrs. Lu's good craftsmanship, which is unmatched by ordinary people.All the women present also echoed and praised after hearing this.

However, although everyone praised her, they looked down on Lu Shi in their hearts. After all, she was called a "jealous jar" by the saint himself.After that incident, no matter what occasion they saw Lu Shi, everyone couldn't help thinking about it, and based on this, they believed that Lu Shi was a stupid woman who didn't know how to flatter her. Fortunately, I married a capable and very favored husband.So now many wives look down on Mrs. Lu in their hearts.

However, this did not hinder everyone's liking for her son. After all, under the teaching of the vinegar jar, her son should know how to cherish and value his wife better than other sons.Moreover, when the daughter married into their family, it was very good to have a mother-in-law like Lu Shi who protected the main wife.Besides, Fang Gong's status is so high, there is really nothing to choose from this family background, who would dare to dislike anything from the prime minister's family background.In the final analysis, it is good to have a "virtuous name", but in the end, life is still lived by oneself. Everyone hopes that their daughter can marry a husband who loves them wholeheartedly.Therefore, in the eyes of those wives who intend to get married, Mrs. Lu is still a person who is easy to curry favor with.The emotion of looking down on something can only be hidden in the heart, or secretly find a sister who thinks the same, bite each other's ears, and whisper it quietly.

Li Mingda stared at these women, although he said sweet words, but his expression and subtle movements betrayed them completely, it was not from the heart at all.

Li Mingda smiled and said to Lu Shi: "Aye also said that your skill is rare, what's even more rare is that you have such a status and have not forgotten your roots. It is really rare that you are willing to cook soup for your husband and children yourself."

As soon as this remark came out, all the women present were in an uproar.Unexpectedly, the sage would even open his mouth to praise Lu after scolding her for being jealous.Those who didn't believe it, someone who knew the news earlier told everyone that Mrs. Lu did receive an oral order from the sage to praise her a few days ago.

Seeing this, the women present also changed their attitude towards Mr. Lu.Only then did he realize that the reason Lu's being able to become the "jealous jar" endured by Fang Gong is also due to his own quality and talent, not just luck.

Women in the circle of noble ladies are sometimes so powerful, they will completely change their view of a person just by the first sentence, and become more aware of the many advantages of this person, so they start to want to make friends with him from the bottom of their hearts .

Feeling everyone's sudden enthusiasm, Lu was taken aback, knowing that it was all thanks to the princess' help.In fact, she has been in the noble circle for so long, she already knew the hypocrisy of those women.She is straightforward and has a big heart, so she doesn't really mind what those people say about her behind her back.But people's hearts are fleshy, and they say they don't care much, but when they really hear people talking about it, they feel uncomfortable.Who doesn't like to be praised?Now that the princess said, it really helped her a lot, Lu Shi was very grateful, and thanked Li Mingda.

After Lu retired, she took her daughter Baozhu and told her in a low voice that when she got married in the future, she should know people with discerning eyes, "Remember, don't take an unintentional compliment from someone on the social occasion as the truth. Life is your own life." To live well is not to listen to others, understand?"

Fang Baozhu nodded, then took a few glances at Princess Jinyang, grabbed Lu Shi's hand excitedly, and said, "Aniang, Princess Jinyang looks really good today. I mean she used to look good too, but today she looks especially good-looking." .She is very beautiful in this pink dress, as if she flew down from the sky, but it's a pity that my brother is not here."

Fang Baozhu pouted slightly, and when she mentioned Fang Yizhi's absence, she felt a little regretful, feeling that his eldest brother had missed a particularly beautiful event.

Lu Shi pulled off the sleeve of Xiafang Baozhu, telling her to be more dignified, at least in front of so many noble ladies, it's good to pretend, don't pout casually.

"Your mother was scolded by everyone as jealous. If you show any shortcomings on this occasion, you really won't be able to get married."

"If you can't get married, you can't get married. I'll be with you forever." Fang Baozhu hugged her mother's arm tightly.

Lu Shi immediately slapped her hand away in disgust, "It's not rare, besides, you and I will get old sooner or later, what will you do then."

"Then I'll take care of my elder brother and sister-in-law, and rely on them." Fang Baozhu said.

"Your elder brother won't dislike you, but it depends on what your sister-in-law is like. If you meet someone who is aggressive, you will be kicked out sooner or later, a slob. At that time, I will definitely applaud you in the world and call you what you deserve." Lu Shi half joked.

"My mother is so cruel, I feel like I was not born by my mother." Fang Baozhu said sadly.

Lu Shi snorted and didn't explain.

Fang Baozhu was lonely for a while, seeing that her mother didn't like her, she stopped pretending to be pitiful, and glanced at Li Mingda again, "But if my sister-in-law is Princess Jinyang, then I will be lucky. It's a person with roughness in his chest and generosity in his belly, gentle and pleasant. He is a thousand times better than me in understanding, and she will definitely not care about me relying on her and elder brother."

"Hush! You dare to say that in front of so many people. Shut up." After giving Fang Baozhu a warning, Mrs. Lu turned her head and saw her eldest daughter Fang Fengzhu approaching.

When Fang Fengzhu saw Lu Shi, she winked slightly, Lu Shi nodded, and did not go forward directly, but together with all the women, saluted Fang Fengzhu.

Before talking about relatives, one must first talk about status.Fang Fengzhu is the wife of Li Yuanjia, King of Han. Not to mention the serious princess, she is still the younger brother and sister of the saint in terms of seniority, so the princes and princesses all respectfully call her "aunt" when they see her.

Concubine Wei invited Fang Fengzhu to come to her side, Li Mingda and Princess Chengyang Li Jingrong also got up to greet her.

Fang Fengzhu hurriedly asked everyone to sit down.

"I'm late, and I have to apologize to you. I was delayed on the road. Who would have thought of taking a bus from Bieyuan back to Chang'an, and would encounter a group of people blocking the way."

"What's going on? You're pregnant, so be careful." Wei Guifei hurriedly asked.

"A group of sheep. No matter how people shout, they can't understand. They can only wait." Fang Fengzhu half-jokingly said, and then she rubbed her stomach, "It's nothing serious, and the imperial concubine is worried."

"It's fine."

"Sheep originate from 'auspiciousness'. It is a good omen to meet auspiciousness when you go out." Li Mingda interjected when he saw that Fang Fengzhu was still a little surprised.

When Fang Fengzhu heard this, he smiled and said yes.Ever since she was pregnant, for some reason, she has been a little sensitive in temper and mind.Today, she was going out for a banquet, but it was her first time going out since she was pregnant. She was still thinking about why it was going so badly, and whether it was a bad omen.Now, after listening to Li Mingda's words, she felt that auspiciousness was a good thing, so she felt at ease and breathed a sigh of relief.

Concubine Wei Gui glanced at Fang Fengzhu's belly, sighed that her belly was sharp, and couldn't help guessing: "It's probably a son."

"Your Majesty said that both men and women are good, so I don't care about these things. If you are born smoothly and grow up strong, you will be most content." Fang Fengzhu said.

At this time, the scene became lively again, and several painted boats were sent from the West Sea. Concubine Wei invited all the noble ladies to board the boat to enjoy the scenery, and also told the children of the aristocratic families on that side not to be polite, and the boats they took were all ready up.Let me tell you that there are not only singing and dancing on board, but also fresh carp and delicious wine for people to enjoy.

Many women agreed to go up, and Li Jingrong also wanted to go, so she dragged Li Mingda along.Li Mingda waved his hand, raised his forehead and said: "I didn't sleep well yesterday, I was dizzy and I couldn't get on the boat. Turning around, I really felt nauseous. Let me see if you still have the heart to eat cut carp."

"Then don't go, you'll spoil my appetite, I'd rather play on the shore." Li Jingrong was half joking, and told Li Mingda to rest if he was tired, and it would not be too late to come back later.When she got up, she patted her on the head by the way, and treated Li Mingda as a child.Afterwards, she held hands with Princess Changshan Li Yumin and Princess Hengshan Li Hui'an.

At this time Fang Fengzhu ran to talk to his mother, Mrs. Lu, and younger sister Fang Baozhu.

Li Mingda looked at Fang Fengzhu, who was already pregnant, walking like flying. When he saw his mother, he was very happy, and even jumped slightly when no one was paying attention. I really doubted that the pregnant woman who was sensitive because of a trivial matter just now was not her. .

"Elder Sister is getting fat again." After Fang Baozhu greeted her, she opened her mouth impolitely.

"Thank you for the compliment. I used to want to be fat but couldn't get fat. Now I think it's just right." Fang Fengzhu raised her plump and round arms, put them on the shoulders of the second sister, and then asked the other brothers in the family how they were.

"The eldest brother has become Shaoqing, and he is investigating the case with the princess. The second brother is just like that, you know. The third brother is really carefree, and he continued to be fat. Two days ago, the eldest brother handled a case and gave it to him." I'm sick, I haven't eaten meat for several days, and I've lost some weight. I don't know where to go now, and I'm probably hanging out with Yuchi Erlang again." Fang Baozhu concluded.

Fang Fengzhu smiled, "After listening for a while, I realized that I was just doing business. By the way, what happened to the cat he raised? I remember it was called a black cow."

"Heh, it's living a better life than me now. I don't know why it has a golden bell around its neck. It's something in the palace. The bell is very delicate. I don't know how it came from." Fang Baozhu said, Glancing at Princess Jinyang over there, he quietly said to Fang Fengzhu, "I guess it might be a reward from Princess Jinyang."

Fang Fengzhu heard some clues, and they were investigating the case together, and they were also delivering things. It is possible that the two of them might not be sure.It's just that her younger brother had uttered nonsense in front of the saint back then, and his stubborn temper was very similar to her mother Lu's.

Since he said that he didn't want to marry the princess, he definitely wouldn't.Besides, even if he is willing, how can the saint be a joke, let him say no, no, just say yes?

"Let's stop delusional about such things, and don't talk nonsense." Fang Fengzhu suddenly became serious and warned Fang Baozhu.Fang Baozhu shut up unhappy.

Lu pulled Fang Fengzhu along the waterside pavilion, and whispered to her, "But it's not just our wishful thinking, Yi Zhi himself also has this intention."

Fang Fengzhu was surprised, "He turned back on what he said?"

"It's rare for him to go back on his word, but it's worth it." Lu Shi said.

Fang Fengzhu immediately understood the meaning of her mother's words, and looked at her in surprise: "From what you said, you seem to like who he likes."

"Very very, very very, I like it." Lu smiled, and said frankly to Fang Fengzhu, "If you have a chance, you can also help out, so that King Han can whisper a few good things about your brother in the saint's ear when he has time. It may not be possible, the day is still far away, plan it early, once it is completed, we can easily solve the troubles in the future."

"Okay, I'll talk to him later." After Fang Fengzhu finished speaking, she turned her head and looked at Li Mingda from a distance. She was talking to Concubine Yang with a smile.

Fang Fengzhu sighed happily, "Actually, I like her too, but her status is too high, I'm afraid our family can't ask for it. Even if it is possible for this family to have a second head, it should be followed by the eldest grandson's family. Besides, he He let go of the words early and blocked his own way forward."

"If it's blocked, we'll unblock it. It's up to people. Yugong can move mountains, but such a small matter can stump us." Lu Shi said without any discouragement.Immediately, she saw a few aristocratic women coming over there, wanting to greet them, she hurriedly whispered to Fang Fengzhu, "It's not easy to go into details in the palace, we will talk about it later when we go home."

Fang Fengzhu agreed.She immediately raised her head, showing an elegant smile, and faced the ladies who came to salute.

Fang Baozhu was not very interested in the content of the chats of these ladies, so she happened to be called by a little sister, so she went.The little sisters introduced her a new friend named Cheng Lanru, who had just arrived in Beijing.Fang Baozhu chatted with her for a few words, and found that her temperament was quite to his liking, so the two of them just sat together, talking nonsense, forgetting themselves in the chat.

Li Mingda felt more and more that Concubine Yang's lip color was not very good, it was worse than the sick look she had when she had a miscarriage before, logically she had been raising her body for nearly two months, so it shouldn't be like this.

Li Mingda then chatted with Concubine Yang for a few words and asked about her daily diet, but did not hear anything special.

Li Mingda asked Concubine Yang why she didn't take the boat.

"I've always felt tired these days, and I don't have much energy." Concubine Yang wiped the sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief, then sighed, "To tell you the truth, the princess, because today is a big banquet, I thought I should join in the fun Yes, so I came with a strong spirit.”

Li Mingda got up, went to Concubine Yang's side, then helped her up, and listened to her heartbeat by the way.Li Mingda frowned, "Can I ask the imperial doctor to see it?"

"A few days ago, I had a miscarriage, and I have bothered them to come to check the pulse every day. These days, I have recovered quickly, so I didn't call them. I guess it's because of an injury, and I need to take care of it for a few more months." Concubine Yang Wen smiled and said to Li Mingda.

"But I see that your complexion is not as good as when you just slipped the tire. It's important to take a closer look, don't delay anything else." After Li Mingda finished speaking, he ordered someone to invite Gao imperial doctor, and then said to Concubine Yang He said, "Go back and have a rest. You don't have to come here to meet the occasion. There are so many people here, and the excitement is tight. I really don't want you to come and join in the fun."

Concubine Yang loves to be brave, listening to Li Mingda's words really touched her heart, she nodded movedly.I thanked the princess for her concern and went.

Tian Hanshu looked at Concubine Yang who was leaving, and sighed, "It's not easy. With the grace, there will be so many misunderstandings and false accusations. She is also afraid of being picked on."

"What is she? She is just a princess from the previous dynasty. She was treated differently by the saint because of special exceptions."

Before Li Mingda could respond to Tian Hanshan's words, he heard two little concubines not far from the west pay attention to the scene where Concubine Yang was helped to leave by the princess's sympathy, and began to chatter.

"What kind of noble princess do you think she is, as noble as Princess Chengyang and Princess Jinyang? Concubine Yang was in the Dasui Palace back then, but she was actually just a daughter of a concubine. She was not favored and unknown in the palace earlier. I am afraid that when the former emperor was alive, he might not remember that he had such a daughter. The reason why the saint kept her in the harem was because she was beautiful, and it was another thing to treat her like this when he was old and frail. It's justified, and it's just a consolation to the former court. To put it bluntly, she is just a pawn used by the saint."

"Your analysis is true, but I don't see it as thoroughly as you do."

"So Concubine Yang, whoever offends her is stupid. Even if the saint has no feelings for her, for the sake of the overall situation of the government, he will keep her to take good care of her and give her enough face. You, listen to my advice, these concubines, You can be jealous of anyone, but you can't be jealous of her, and you can't touch her. Although she is a concubine, her position is even more difficult to shake than Concubine Wei."

"Understood, you are still the best. Good sister, you will follow me in the future and give me advice, okay? All my good things are for you to use."

"You don't need to be so polite, but my adoptive father came into the palace a few days ago, saying that he has no hope of promotion this time, so I don't feel sorry for him. He is so old and misses me in the palace. Desperate."

"It's simple. I'll talk to my second uncle later and see if he can help. He may not be able to help with other things, but he can still say a few words about this matter. My second uncle was just arrested yesterday. The sage named him and concurrently served as Minister of the Ministry of Officials."

"Then thank you Xiao Cairen." Wu Cairen hurriedly saluted and thanked her. After she finished speaking, she turned her head and looked around, only to see Princess Jinyang coming this way.

Wu Cairen hastily touched Xiao Cairen's hand.Xiao Cairen also saw it.Both of them were very nervous and rushed to salute Li Mingda.

"How did you two live here?" Logically speaking, only concubines and concubines above the rank of concubine can attend the banquet in Xihai today.

While Li Mingda raised doubts, he went to look at the martial artist by the way. He is very delicate and beautiful, his eyes are also very watery, charming and charming, he must be well-educated, and his manners are somewhat elegant.He is not very old, and it seems that his age is only three or two years older than himself.

The reason why Li Mingda paid so much attention to Wu Cairen was because on Wei Wanshu's birthday last time, Wei Wanshu mentioned that her piano skills were taught by Wu Cairen.Now looking at the age of Wu Cairen, she should be even younger before entering the palace. It is not easy to teach Wei Wanshu to play such a majestic piano sound.Furthermore, listening to what she said about Concubine Yang, although there was a bit of contempt in her words, the analysis was true.Apart from some old feelings towards Concubine Yang, her father really cared more about Concubine Yang's status as the princess of the previous dynasty, so she has been taking good care of her all these years.

"Returning to your lord, my concubine and Xiao Cairen were ordered by Concubine De to accompany you. Concubine De just followed Wei Guifei on board, so she asked us to wait here." Xiao Cairen replied.

"Which Xiao family are you from?" Li Mingda looked at Xiao Cairen.

Xiao Cairen was a little depressed when he heard this, pursed the corners of his mouth, and saluted: "The concubine is the niece of Song Guogong Xiao Yu."

It turned out that Xiao Cairen's second uncle was Xiao Yu.

Li Mingda smiled, "Okay, you guys have nothing to do, you all go back. When Concubine De goes ashore, I will tell her."

Xiao Cairen and Wu Cairen glanced at each other, saluted Li Mingda respectfully, and then hurriedly left.When the two walked a little farther, Xiao Cairen couldn't help complaining that they were unlucky and were blocked by the princess. She wanted to see her cousin Xiao Kai, but now she couldn't.

Wu Cairen turned his head sideways, glanced in the direction of the princess, and saw that the princess had already turned to chat with others, he still felt something was wrong.She told Xiao Cairen to complain less, the occasion is not suitable at this moment, so be cautious, if someone accidentally listens to her, both of them will be in bad luck.

Xiao Cairen agreed, and then he shut up, and left in a hurry hand in hand with Wu Cairen.

Li Mingda told Zuo Qingmei, "There are so many people today, there are many things I can't take care of. But I don't know if Wei Wanshu and Zhou Xiaohe are here. If they are, you send someone to watch them closely."

Just now Li Mingda only asked about the voice, because his vision was blocked and he didn't see anyone, so he was a little uncertain.

Zuo Qingmei's face turned serious, she knew that since the princess gave her orders, there must be something wrong with her.So he hurriedly agreed, and immediately called a few old maids in the palace who were good at monitoring, and personally took them to monitor.

Most of the noble ladies and family wives got on the boat, and only a few who couldn't take the boat stayed on the shore.At this time, there were fewer people on the shore, and it was much quieter.Li Mingda liked this scene, so he walked a little further away and sat in an octagonal pavilion built on the lake.Just as the boat was heading this way, Li Hui'an and Li Yumin, who were playing at the bow, saw Sister Nineteen and waved to her.

The two children were at the naughty age, they were a little excited when they saw Li Mingda, and shouted quite loudly, regardless of the princess' manners.

Li Mingda smiled and waved to them.

Li Hui'an jumped up happily, grabbed the cloak on his body and waved at Li Mingda.

Seeing this, Li Jingrong, the Princess of Chengyang, hurriedly took the two noisy children and asked them to take care of their manners.The two were considered honest, when they followed Li Jingrong into the cabin, they still turned their heads and made a funny face at Li Mingda.

"I've seen your lord!" Yuchi Baoqi, Wei Shuyu, and Fang Yi were taking a walk when Xiao Kai called them back to play in a boat.When the four of them came back, they found that there were already five boats on the West Sea. Many aristocratic families were reciting poems and composing poems on the boats, watching the excitement, but they missed it.Xiao Kai was about to complain when he happened to see Li Mingda over there, so he came over to salute.

Wei Shuyu looked deeply at the graceful princess, and slowly slowed down, walking at the end.He has been reflecting on these days, and he feels a little guilty and embarrassed about his previous random speculation and stupid thoughts.

Li Mingda was the first to look at him, "Who did you come with today?"

Wei Shuyu hurriedly said that he came with his mother, younger sister and cousin.

Li Mingda raised his eyebrows, further confirming that he heard Wei Wanshu's voice correctly.

At this moment, Tian Hanshan remembered the matter of the orphan, and said with a smile, "It just so happens that Wei Shizi is here today—"

Li Mingda reached out and knocked the tea bowl away.

Tian Hanshu shut up and hurriedly sent someone to clean it up, but when he received the wink from the princess, he quickly shut up.

But Wei Shuyu asked Tian Hanshan what he meant in a puzzled way.

"It just so happens that you are all idle and everyone is here. How about writing poems for the occasion? I happen to have a few unique rare books in my hand. I can earn what I want." Li Mingda clapped his hands after speaking, and asked someone to present the rare books .

At this time, Fang Fengzhu and Mrs. Lu saw that this place was lively, and Fang Yi was also here, and both of them were worried that Fang Yi would be careless, so they came over to have a look.Seeing that her son Wei Shuyu was there, Mrs. Pei followed.The girls who were with the two ladies also followed.

Li Mingda smiled and invited Fang Fengzhu, Lu Shi, Pei Shi, Fang Baozhu, Wei Wanshu and others to sit down.

Yuchi Baoqi, Xiao Kai, Wei Shuyu and Fang Yize were thinking of making up a random poem just to cheer up the princess, they had no intention of comparing.But when I changed hands and saw the solitary copy on the tray carried by Eunuch Tian, ​​I realized what a "peerless solitary copy" is, and there is actually a handwritten copy of the "Three Sages" among the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove in the Western Jin Dynasty.

Xiao Kai still didn't believe it, so he took a copy and read it carefully.

Wei Shuyu glanced at it, and immediately said: "It is indeed a rattan corner paper that only existed in the Western Jin Dynasty."

"That's so rare, I won't give in." Xiao Kai said immediately.

Wei Shuyu smiled confidently, indicating that he would not either.

Yuchi Baoqi pursed her lips and thought for a while, "I like this thing too, but I'm sure I don't like it more than Brother Yi Zhi, so we might as well fight for it, and if I'm lucky enough to get it, I can give it to Brother Yi Zhi as a gift, and I have the right to thank him for his kindness. Take care of me for a while."

"My elder brother will definitely be happy when he hears this." Fang Yi sighed.

"I see that you all have the intention of competing, and suddenly remembered the saying that 'there is no first in literature'. If poetry and fu are on the same level, it is not good to judge. How about this, poetry or fu and painting together, the hatchback corresponds to each other. Come and be victorious."

Li Mingda's proposal was immediately agreed by everyone.After all, poetry has different artistic conceptions, and it is very likely that the level is the same, and it is hard to distinguish between them.But the painting is different, you can know the depth of your skill just by writing.

Princess Jinyang is really thoughtful.

Li Mingda immediately ordered someone to prepare a desk case, pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

"Harvest and farming, let's take this as the topic. When the saint comes later, I will ask him to be your judge." Li Mingda said.

When Yuchi Baoqi and others heard that the princess wanted to ask the king to make a judgment, it was a big deal, and they were all very nervous, so they immediately started to think about it seriously.

The topic the princess said sounded simple at first glance, but they were pretty good at composing poems. After all, everyone had made preparations for poems and prose for the celebration feast earlier.But it is a bit difficult to draw a picture corresponding to the poems they wrote.One is that most of them have no deep understanding of farming and other matters, such as what the crops look like in the field before harvesting, they are actually not very clear.What's more, most of the poems are praises of meritorious deeds, praising the sage's ability to govern the country. This kind of words can be said but not easy to describe.

Li Mingda saw that Yuchi Baoqi and the others were hesitant, so he told them not to rush and take his time, and then said to Lu Shi and Pei Shi: "We are joking here, I am afraid it will disturb them, let them stay here This good student studies poetry and painting, how about we go to Lin Dong to enjoy the flowers?"

Li Mingda's proposal was immediately approved by Fang Fengzhu and the two wives, and everyone chatted and laughed together.

Seeing the women leaving, Yuchi Baoqi put down the pen, and sighed, "Brother Yi Zhi, brother Yi Zhi, it's not that I don't want to work hard and I'll help you earn money, it's really hard to write."

Zhuangjia Wei Chi Baoqi has also seen it. He usually rides a horse on the side of the road in patches, but he has not observed it carefully. He only paints the fur, but not the bone. It is better not to draw.

Xiao Kai didn't care about these things, he drew a picture with a wave of his brush, and then pondered a poem that was not very atmospheric and wrote it on it.

"If you all can't do it, I might win." Xiao Kai put down his pen, took a look at the painting, and turned his head to look at Wei Shuyu, who was actually tracing the ears of wheat very carefully, even the fluff on the ears of wheat. To draw realistically.Xiao Kai looked at his own again and felt ashamed, so he quickly rubbed the painting into a ball and started again.

Yuchi Baoqi sat down, looked at the lake with his chin in his hands, fell into deep thought, and carefully recalled the scene when he, the princess, Fang Yizhi and others left Anzhou City and rode horses on the road.At that time, there was a large wheat field on both sides of the road, which stretched as far as the eye could see. Because of the hot weather, everyone hurried on the road at dawn, just in time to see the sun rise in the east.At the end of the wheat field, a round of red sun is rising, casting golden light on the green wheat field.

That scene was beautiful, and Yuchi Baoqi remembered it even more clearly. The princess on the horse, bathed in the morning sun, had a bright smile, like the morning glow in the sky.

Yuchi Baoqi then swiped the brush and drew the scene that he saw at that time, and then wrote a poem: "The summer wind is warm in July, and the red sun shines on the green fields..."

The Li family has many clansmen, and Han Wang Li Yuanjia is the kind who does his duty in front of Li Shimin, but does not fight for it.It can't be regarded as being favored, nor can it be regarded as being out of favor.But he walks around the court for all things, and in his spare time, he doesn't have much time to go to and from Taiji Palace as a relative.It will only appear during the New Year's feast.Li Mingda didn't know Li Yuanjia well, and naturally he didn't know Fang Fengzhu too well.But today they formed a bond and found that they got along very well.

At present, Li Mingda and Fang Fengzhu have the highest status, and she is naturally at the forefront, and the conversation becomes more and more speculative.

Mrs. Pei and Mrs. Lu led their girls to enjoy the scenery. The chrysanthemums were beautiful and the garden was exquisite, so they were very interested.

"I don't know if my aunt has heard of Fengyuelou before." Li Mingda and Pingfang Fengzhu got acquainted with each other, so they asked by the way.

"Fengyue Tower?" Fang Fengzhu raised his eyebrows, calmed down and recalled, then shook his head in doubt, "I don't know, it's a restaurant in the capital?"

"It's not a restaurant, it's a brothel. It committed a crime and was confiscated by the government. But before the confiscation, I heard an interesting saying, which was said by a certain family member."

"What do you say?" Fang Fengzhu asked.

"It is said that this Fengyue building is actually the property of King Han." Li Mingda said bluntly.

Fang Fengzhu was stunned for a moment and shook his head, "I don't know here, but it's hard to keep King Han from me. I will definitely ask carefully later. If there is such a thing, I will never hide it from the princess. I will bring him to tell the princess personally. Chen Ming is clear."

"I like how straightforward my aunt is." Li Mingda thanked Fang Fengzhu.

Everyone then chatted for a while, and felt that it was almost time, so they went back to see Yuchi Baoqi and the others' achievements.

Tian Hanshan immediately collected all the poems and paintings and sent them up.Fang Fengzhu and Li Mingda glanced at each other and laughed.

"I think Baoqi is slightly better." Fang Fengzhu said.

Li Mingda also nodded in agreement, "Indeed."

Wei Shuyu, Xiao Kai and others were also convinced.

"It's not as good as his mood if you are willing to bow down." Xiao Kai said.

"You don't need to bother the sage to make a judgment on such matters, we are all convinced that he is the winner." Wei Shuyu said hastily.

"Indeed." Li Mingda asked Yuchi Baoqi to take the copy.

At this time, the five ships in the West Sea began to play music, singing and dancing.Another boat docked, and Yuchi Baoqi and others were invited to go aboard.

After Li Mingda sent them away, he was exhausted and said goodbye to Lu Shi and others.

Not long after she left, she heard Zhou Xiaohe and Wei Shuyu whispering again.Wei Wanshu felt that Zhou Xiaohe seemed tired, but she was not as beautiful as when she refreshed herself in the morning.

Zhou Xiaohe was very nervous and hurriedly arranged her appearance, and then she couldn't help feeling that the celebration feast was really tiring from day to night, so she regained her spirits.

"The Xanfeng Hall over there is a place for rest, I'll take you there."

"Okay, it's just that we have a careful discussion to ensure that everything is safe. After all, this is in the palace." Zhou Xiaohe said nervously.

"What are you afraid of? It's not something shameful for us. It's not shameful even if people see it. It's still a good talk if you don't keep it together. Your cousin and I will make you do something that destroys your future and reputation. Then It's the worst strategy, the lowest method." Wei Wanshu said.

Zhou Xiaohe nodded, then smiled and took Wei Wanshu's arm, "So it's my cousin who treats me best."

Wei Wanshu smiled, and then took Zhou Xiaohe to explain the situation to the palace servants, who immediately took them to rest in the wing of Xunfeng Palace.

Not long after, Zhou Xiaohe fell asleep heartlessly.

Wei Wanshu looked at Zhou Xiaohe's sleeping face for a while, then went out, looked at the sun, guessed that it was almost time, she went out, walked around to a small road behind the Xunfeng Hall, walked quickly through the dense forest, turned left, It's a hut.Wei Wanshu looked around and went into the hut.

Wu Cairen waited for a long time, when he saw her coming, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "If you don't come, I will leave."

Wei Wanshu looked around, it was still clean.

Wu Cairen saw through her disgust at a glance, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this place is remote, and people don't come here often, and it's not dirty. If you meet here, even if you are seen by others, there is reason to say, and you won't be singled out. .”

"It's still as thoughtful as you think."
