Xiren first looked around and saw that there was no one around, and then replied: "I heard that the second master met Prince Lian in the Beijing Palace. I don't know what he said. He came to tell the master that he was beaten for this."
When Jia Mu heard this, she frowned, and asked with a cold face, "Where did you hear this? If there is a half-sentence of falsehood, I will only punish you."
Xiren hurriedly gambled and swore: "I served the old lady once, and I served the second master once. How dare I talk nonsense in the open sky? I dared to go back to the old lady after I asked the boys who followed the second master. There is no absolute degree of confidence in what you say.”
He bowed his head and hesitated for a while, then continued hesitantly: "Old lady, don't be angry. After all, Miss Lin and us are relatives in the same line. No matter how bad the second master is, no matter how bad he should be, he will never call someone to come—"
Halfway through the speech, Mother Jia snapped, "Shut up!"
The attacker knelt down in a panic, touched his head firmly to the ground, and tears rolled down like beads: "The little one is bold today, and said something offensive in front of the old lady: reasoning, the second master should be taught a lesson. This matter should have been strictly guarded against. But the last time Miss Lin returned to Ning, Lian Wang asked the master to change the name of the second master, saying that he had committed a taboo, and accompanied him to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion for two days; this time he was even more frightened. King Jing is doing well, so such a big incident happened this time. I thought, it must be the second master or his behavior and words are frivolous, but there is no reason why accidents happen every time we meet!"
When Jia Mu heard this, she was speechless for a while, and only took a heavy breath, but her complexion became darker.
Xiren observed her words and expressions, and saw Jia Mu's complexion changed, so he took the opportunity to say, "I'm afraid, I'm afraid, because I was annoyed by Miss Lin's marriage before, which made King Lian angry at the second master. For this reason, I really found someone The story put Erye to death, that's fine."
This sentence really touched Jia Mu's heart, so she lowered her face and said coldly, "Don't say a single thing you said here today. If the news gets out, you will be the first one to spare!"
When Jia's mother was in a rage, Xiren didn't dare to say any more at this moment. He quickly bowed his head and agreed, and slowly withdrew, thinking along the way: I don't know how much the old lady can listen to her words. If she really agrees, she will be exempted How much flesh and blood the second master suffered.
Seeing that the attacker was gone, Jia Mu stayed for a while, then Fang sighed, "Forget it, for nothing! If that's the case, I want to break up with us completely. I thought I could leave a way for Bao Yu'er, but Lin In the end, the girl only resembles Min'er three points, and the rest is followed by someone else, she is actually a heartless seed."
Because after reading this, I thought about it for a while, and thought: No matter how good the appearance of Lian Wang is, he will be useless in the end. It is better to ask someone to send a letter to Concubine Yuan, and it is serious to test the tone.
It is said that the Mid-Autumn Festival is here, the golden wind is refreshing, and the beauty is beautiful. From the rich and the wealthy to the ordinary people, they all go up to the building to enjoy the moon, sing and drink, and play all night long.
Recently, Daiyu is no different from the headed mistress in Beijing, they are both preparing for the Mid-Autumn festival.However, Prince Lian's mansion has very few contacts, and Shui Lan refuses to let the common affairs work for her, so he specially appointed four maids to help her, so her energy is limited, and she only prepares six-color large boxes with some high-quality fruit cakes, and then decorates them with jade-shaped and rich-style cakes. Flowers, distributed to each family to send.
After three or two days, gifts from various families came one after another. Perhaps Jia's mansion was venting their anger because of Baoyu's beating, and the ceremony was simpler than usual.Sister Feng sent Wang'er away and quietly gave another gift, saying that she was grateful for the concubine's words of consolation. Daiyu gave twice as much as her gift.
Most of the other people gave me mooncakes such as melon kernel oil with pine pulp and duck oil with double yellow lotus seed paste. The sweetness in the mouth was so bitter that it was really not to her liking, so she was a bit sleepy and refused to use it. The naked eye has lost weight again.
In the end, Shui Lan figured out a way, and asked someone to buy white hemp crisp cakes made of three-color jade rabbit pounded medicine, as well as crystal clear zongzi candies, golden and sweet pine nuts and southern jujube candies from Caizhizhai, a time-honored shop in Gusu County. A variety of Suzhou candied fruit, filled with several small pink porcelain jars, was delivered by water all the way.
Although Daiyu is not greedy for food and drink, she only loves Tuyi snacks in her hometown.Therefore, she was very happy now, and she would hold the porcelain jar in her arms, and take a piece of pine nut candy or candied golden dates in her mouth, happily brows, tasting the sweet and sour, refreshing taste, really The aftertaste is endless.
The two of them were having dinner that day, just as Dai Yu bit into a piece of rouge chicken breast, she suddenly raised her hand to caress her left cheek, and frowned deeply.
Shui Lan hurriedly put down the silver chopsticks, and asked with concern, "Madam, what's wrong?"
Just as Daiyu opened her mouth, the sudden severe pain forced her to tears, her black pupils were wet, and she shook her head lovingly.
When Shui Lan saw her like this, she became more and more concerned, and in the end, Qiu Wan beside her watched for a while, and reminded appropriately: "Madam, could it be that there are too many candied fruit and other food these days? These snacks are the most likely to get angry. If it accumulates, it will cause internal heat."
Before she could finish her sentence, Daiyu lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him. Shui Lan seemed to have some surprises, so Fang gave her a glance: "You are as greedy and naughty as a child. In the evening of autumn, quickly search out the snack cans of the princess, first Temporarily store it with you, and wait for her to drink chrysanthemum honey for a few days to lose her temper, and then pay it back to the princess."
Before Qiu Wan could respond, Daiyu was impatient, her head shook like a rattle, while enduring the pain, she grinned and said, "Don't, I won't obey!"
Hearing this, Shui Lan was really angry and funny, and deliberately put on a straight face, saying seriously: "If you don't comply, you have to. Qiuwan, go and take the jar away now."
Qiu Wan also smiled and agreed, and immediately hid the things, Daiyu watched eagerly, but her cheeks were so painful that she couldn't eat any more, so she had to lie on the kang reluctantly, her whole body wasted half.
Shui Lan was still rough and yellowish, so someone took a cactus and baked it to iron it, and applied it on her cheeks to clear away heat and relieve pain.It's just that Daiyu is afraid of the pain, and when she moves her hand a little, she can't help crying, and half of it is real pain and half is acting like a baby, Shui Lan stops her hand quickly every time, and does this three or four times before she finishes cooking.
After tossing and tossing for a while, Shui Lan helped Daiyu lean on the pillow, and the cool air slowly penetrated along the skin. Daiyu stared at his bright and handsome face for a while, and secretly smiled back: "Who would believe that?" Well, actually, with you here, I don't feel any pain."
Shui Lan smoothed her slightly messy temple hair for her, her movements were extremely gentle and careful, and she knew the severity better than Zicuckoo, and sighed lovingly: "You don't know how to feel sorry for others. Don't eat it for two days, and wait until everything is better." There are guests coming in the evening, and I will ask Chunxiao to bring you food to your room?"
When Daiyu asked who came, Shui Lan replied with a smile: "It's a coincidence. That day we went to see the No. When we arrived in Chuzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, Chu Chen ordered Hanlin to continue teaching editing and editing, so he will stay with the king to drive."
When Daiyu heard this, she wondered, "Why is the champion sent out to be an official, and Tanhua stays with His Majesty?"
When she was asked, Shui Lan explained to her in detail: "Ma'am, I don't know. In fact, there are advantages and disadvantages to both being sent out and staying in Beijing. Like Wenrenyu, if you do something with your heart, you can really do it. A few years of experience in going out will be beneficial to future promotion, and besides, His Majesty intends to use him, so the place to send him is the Jiangnan generation; for a person as talented and knowledgeable as Chu Chen, going out will not be able to show his strengths , or stay in the Hanlin Academy to serve, and he wrote a book every day, saying that anyone who can show his relatives and fame. Therefore, there is also a saying in "Huainanzi Binglue Training": If a person makes the best of his talents, he will use his strength."
Daiyufang realized it, and felt that he had benefited a lot, and heard him say: "Because I heard that people chose a day to leave, which coincided with the Mid-Autumn Festival, the two of them discussed going to the house to get together tonight. It's been a while."
It was night, and everyone in the palace knew that there was a visitor, so they cleaned the table and prepared the dishes, and arranged them.At one o'clock, the sky was as clear as a mirror, and the silver pot was shining brightly, making it even more beautiful and lovely than before.It happened that the two of them entered the mansion together, and because of inconvenience, the noise was too great, so the long attendant had to greet them from the corner gate.
The two first paid a visit to Shuilan, and said a few words to each other. Shuilan looked at the moon in the sky, and said with a smile: "If you want to enjoy the moon, the mountain is the best. It's a pity that there is no mountain here. Let's go upstairs to enjoy it. There are also two sweet-scented osmanthus trees, the scenery is better."
The two naturally agreed, and followed the winding path for more than a hundred steps to a dangerous building.Because the water light and the moon shadow overlapped on the bank of the Taiwan-built pool, they were shining brightly, so a plaque was written saying Qiongyu Tower, but there was no connection between the left and the right.
Upstairs, in the Zhuzhu Painting Building, a table of wine and banquets was set up by the window, with dishes, vegetables, fruits and other things displayed.Shui Lan was in the middle of the top, listening to people's words on the left, and Chu Chen on the right. They all asked him to sit down first, and then sat down one by one.
Shui Lan held the pot, poured a cup, and respected first: "I haven't seen one for a long time, and now I'm talking about some romantic and elegant things, and I have given away the common names like princes and ministers. The second is to practice for the people, and congratulate you two The joy of being named on the gold list, I respect you brother Yu first."
The two dared not even say it, and each had a drink with them.Hearing that people are good at eloquence, Cheng Huan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty discouraged me from waiting. Theoretically, it should be that I wait to respect my Majesty first, and I will finally have a chance to make a big splash."
He didn't finish the sentence, but Chu Chen next to him curled his lips, but he was handsome and refined, so he didn't look ugly like this, and laughed, "I said some nonsense, and I didn't want to insult the good wine and bright moon."
Wen Renyu knew him as a human being, so he didn't feel embarrassed when he gave a thin smile, but Shui Lan clapped his hands and laughed: "You two are still the same, you are a pair of black-eyed chickens, and you don't think it's uncomfortable to live a day without bickering. .”
When the two heard this, they looked at each other tacitly, and then both laughed again.
While the wine was in full swing, Shui Lan took a look at the beautiful scenery outside the window, pondered for a while, and suggested to the two of them: "Since that's the case, let's make a couplet right now, so it's better to write it in this building."
Hearing people's words, he knew that Chu Chen had the talent to compose poetry in seven steps. Although he was above all others, he thought that he was not good at chanting, and he had no intention of competing with Chu Chen, so he humbly showed his talent to the fullest.
Sure enough, the words still lingered in his ears, so Chu Chen immediately thought about something, and chanted casually: "Zhu Zangze is self-beautiful, and Yuyun Mountain is full of brilliance."
Both Shui Lan and Wenren applauded, especially Wenrenyu. He has always admired Chu Chen's talent, and said happily: "It's wonderful! If Chu Chen writes another poem, he will write How about changing the name of this building to Hanhui so as to live up to the people and scenery?"
While speaking, Chu Chen's heart was synthesized, and he wrote it on the paper, showing it to the two of them.
Shui Lan looked at it, nodded and said nothing.He ordered someone to copy it down, turned his back and whispered: "Send this poem to Madam, and then bring Madam's reply."
The attendant got the order and immediately ran out, Shui Lan smiled secretly, waiting for Daiyu's answer.
Let's say that Daiyu is leaning on the couch, Zijuan is doing needlework, and Chunxiao is talking about inquiring about Wang's and Baoyu's beatings.Chunxiao was like a storyteller with a tongue full of lotus blossoms, and she was beating and talking lively. Zijuan kept her head down and glanced at Daiyu from time to time.
Just seeing Qiu Wan walk in, Dai Yuyin asked, "Where did you come from? The prince and the guests are still eating?"
Qiu Wan shook her hand and said with a smile: "There is a reason, the prince sent someone to send a piece of paper, and I want to show it to the princess." After hearing this, Daiyu felt bored and thought to herself: Please treat him well. Customer, what kind of paper do you send with white eyebrows and red eyes?
After unfolding it, it turned out that it was a couplet and a quatrain, but I felt that the rhetoric was rich and elegant, and the literary debate was romantic, so I couldn't help but get up and call it wonderful.Asked who made it, Qiu Wan hurriedly replied: "It's Chu Tanhua from Jinke. The prince asked the young man to wait outside and wait for the princess to reply."
Daiyu thought about these words, and just touching her heart, she couldn't help being happy, thinking: He really understands people's minds, so he won't waste my thinking.
It turned out that Shui Lan had already expected that Daiyu would be a little bit eager to write poetry when she saw Chu Chen composing poems, and wanted to express her poetic quality, so she ordered her to wait.
Walking slowly to the window, looking at the Milky Way and the sea of stars in the sky, and the shadow of the moon in the pool, Daiyu lit the lamp, dipped the pen in the ink, and wrote three poems on the paper excitedly.
After finishing writing, the attendants flew to report to Hanhui Tower again.Shui Lan took it and put it on the table, with a smile on his lips: "Look at this, don't hesitate to comment."
Wen Renyu looked at it from the beginning, and saw that the first sentence reads: Muyun collects all the coldness, and the cold dew silently turns the jade plate.Under my heart, I realized that it was a woman's handwriting, but she pretended to be happy and asked: "It's very suitable for the occasion, and it's also novel. I don't know if it was made by that famous hand in the prince's house?"
Shui Lan remained silent, and glanced at Chu Chen.But seeing his eyebrows frowning, looking at it for a while, Fang said: "Of course it is unique, but it hurts its delicacy. For example, in this first sentence, it would be better to change two words, and a little embellishment for the rest will make it."
After hearing this, the two of them were all excited, and hurriedly urged to continue.Chu Chen didn't answer, and raised his head for a while to consider, and changed the word "Lenglu" to Yinhan, and deleted all the words below.
After a little deliberation, when I heard people's words and saw it, and was praising it repeatedly, Shui Lan couldn't help laughing at Yan Yan, and secretly asked someone to copy a copy and deliver it inside.
On the other side, Qiu Wan said all that Chu Chen had said, and Dai Yuyuan was a little annoyed, thinking to himself that he was making such a bold statement, but we should see his ability.
After seeing the polished manuscript, he was not only surprised, but also praised him endlessly: "I am really not as good as him. Although I only erased a few places, it is a hundred times more elegant. My manuscript will be burned soon."
Saying that, Qiuwan saw her eyebrows slightly relaxed again, and said with a smile: "Please bring a word to the prince: Tan Hualang is amazing and stunning, and Mr. Xiaoxiang thought it was impossible to add, so he stopped writing."
At that time, when it reached Shui Lan's ears, he laughed and told Wen Ren and Chu Chen to listen.Wen Ren was originally very clever, pursed his lips and said nothing; Chu Chen was biased in human affairs and common affairs, and Quan was regarded as Lian Wangyan's Qing guest, with a glow of approval in his eyes: "The literati have always looked down on each other, how noble and self-sufficient are you?" Xu, this gentleman is very talented, but he has the capacity to tolerate others, which is very valuable."
As Chu Chen said, he drank the wine in front of the door with his neck up, his cheeks turned rosy immediately, and he smiled without any distractions: "My lord, why don't you invite someone here, Chu Chen wants to meet this king and talk about poetry together Wouldn't it be interesting to write lyrics?"
Seeing that Shui Lan's smile faltered slightly, and hearing how smooth people's speech was, he quietly tugged at him and gave him a secret wink.
Chu Chen just came to his senses, and hurriedly covered his mouth without mentioning it, but Shui Lan said with a smile: "It's okay, but she has been in poor health for the past two days, and she is resting in bed, so I can't see each other. Next time there is a fate, I will meet again." meeting."
Chu Chen was about to speak again, but because he had guessed who he heard, he was afraid that he would inadvertently speak abruptly, so he hurriedly stopped Chu Chen, and said, "You poetry nerd has committed stupidity again. I met you two days ago. A famous inscription has opened your bag of words. Now I have to pull people together again, I can't bear the noise." Shui Lan and Wen Renyu couldn't help laughing. .
After rambling a few more words, it is inevitable that some court affairs will be discussed.Chu Chen didn't like the officialdom, so he just sat and listened silently, and occasionally interrupted while drinking; but he was good at this when hearing people's words, and gradually began to talk loudly: "I see your majesty's posture, on the surface, he is still filial to the emperor, but he still has a hand behind his back." If you want to push the Meng family to become a rising upstart, sooner or later they will fight against that group of old ministers, and the best show is yet to come."
Chu Chen held a green glaze cup in his hand, squinted his eyes and shook it, and continued lazily: "I heard a letter in a trance. For the previous lawsuit against the two kings, His Majesty drafted a decree with the Imperial Academy. , I am afraid that the emperor will not agree, and I will still wait for it."
With carelessness in her long eyes, Shui Lan took a sip of the wine before saying: "This is an inevitable failure. Your Majesty summoned me yesterday and asked me this question again. I just said Zheng Zhuanggong and his brother uncle Duan The allusions, the rest are too lazy to talk about."
Hearing people's words, he couldn't help but praise Shui Lan's words: "The prince is so good at killing people. It is said in "Customs of the Customs": the long official's horse is fat, the observer is quick, and the rider is happy with his words, so he drives endlessly until he dies .Follow the madness of the two kings with sincerity, the upper emperor indulges, and the lower officials help, sooner or later it will become a disaster, your majesty just wait."
Although Chu Chen didn't understand these things, but only listened to the allusions of the two of them, he also understood their meaning, and said coldly: "The king of Chengjun always thought that he was the son of the old East Palace, and his intentions were unquestionable. I don't believe that the emperor has never heard of it. Two, is it all on deaf ears? After all, His Majesty is the emperor's son, and his elbow really turned a corner."
Unknowingly frowned, Shui Lan nodded and sighed: "It's not that the emperor doesn't care about His Majesty, but there is no father and son in the Tian family, only the monarch and his ministers."
The two of them didn't want to talk more when they saw him, but they just laughed it off and struck up a conversation with him.
Recently, the Queen of Qianxiang Kingdom came to court for the yearly offering, which was considered a piece of news. Hearing people started a conversation and said: "Qianxiang Kingdom is far away in the ocean. That's right, Chu Chen and I also got rewarded red musk skewers."
Shui Lan squinted at him, with a mocking smile: "Your Majesty got a few strings of red musk beads and red sweat scarves, and distributed them to the princes and ministers below. You and Chu Chen got them, didn't they?" The filial piety of the King of Beijing?"
Before he could say a word, Wen Renyu's face was flushed, and he cupped his hands embarrassingly and said: "Your Highness is the most sensible person, King Beijing Jing is like Sima Zhao's heart, everyone has known it for a long time."
It was rare for Chu Chen to see him deflated, so he took advantage of the situation to make a laugh, and said tauntingly, "A Yu, who is usually like a loach, has met the prince, and is just a salty fish that can't turn over!"
"It doesn't matter." Shui Lan feared that people's words would be boring, so she stopped them with a smile: "Shui Rong is also called the King of Sour, and he intends to win over you, but it shows that you are talented. I sent a few words the day before yesterday, he should be more vigilant , at least don’t fool around with me.”
The three of them discussed for a while, and Shui Lan asked people to serve tea to hangover.Seeing that all the tea bowls brought were Yue Porcelain bowls with rhombic flower mouths, the color was as moist as fat, and the patterns were elegant and clean, so he laughed and said, "This tea bowl is good, very elegant and lovely."
Shui Lan listened, and although she smiled reservedly, she showed a complacent expression on her face: "Where did I get the fun? It's all the idea of the princess, she is very good at tidying up the utensils, and she arranges them elegantly."
Chu Chen kept nodding his head, Wen Renyu glanced at him, then lowered his head and pretended to be drinking tea.
At this moment, the night was getting darker, and the two saw the wind and desolation outside, so they left hand in hand.Shui Lan was afraid that the moss road would be slippery, so he ordered people to hold the horn lamps and send them to the front of the hall in person.
That Chu Chen was about to leave, when he saw people watching with a smile under the lamplight, he said with a smile: "I don't have any flowers growing on my face, and I'm still waiting for the prince to give you supper?"
Wen Renyu couldn't help but shook his head, and said with a smile: "You, just keep your mouth shut, and when it is really useful, you will become a fool."
After hearing this, Chu Chen knew there was an article, and hurriedly asked, "How do you say that?"
Wen Renyu pulled him into the car and said, "Let me ask you, do you really not know who wrote that poem, or are you just pretending not to?"
Chu Chen was confused when he heard that, and frowned, "What's the truth? I can't understand a word you said."
Seeing his ignorant face, Wen Renyu sighed: "Those three poems are clearly written by women. Apart from the concubine, there are no female relatives in the palace. You are still in a hurry to meet, what is your intention?"
Chu Chen's face flushed, and because he had been thinking for a long time, he clapped his hands and shouted: "That's it. The language of the strange way is beautiful, and the allusions are exquisite. I still think that the man with an exquisite heart is the princess. handwriting!"
"What a stupid thing, fortunately the prince is generous." Seeing his interesting appearance, Wen Renyu raised his eyebrows and jokingly said, "Now I'm going to Jiangnan, you are so unreasonable, what's the matter?"
Chu Chen didn't say anything, but was still thinking about the scene just now, and seemed to mutter to himself: "It's a pity that men and women are different, and there is a distinction between superiority and inferiority. Otherwise, we only talk about poetry and Ci, and we should be a bosom friend."
Looking up at the sky, the moon is clear and the wind is shining, and the scenery is shining brightly, and my eyes are fascinated for a while.
But Shui Lan sent the two of them back, walking on the road together, remembering that Daiyu was still recuperating in the room, so she didn't go to see her, but wanted to visit her.If she just passed by like this, she might be overwhelmed by the moisture on her body, so she would rather go around and change clothes before going.
After changing clothes, I went into Daiyu's room first. Seeing Chunxiao and Zijuan talking outside, I asked, "Ma'am, haven't you slept yet?"
The two got up and greeted Ann, ordered someone to make tea and bring it in, Chun Xiao pouted inwardly, and replied: "It's unfortunate that the prince came, the princess just took a rest, please wait until tomorrow."
Shui Lan looked in, and saw the Xiang curtain hanging down to the ground, dark and silent, so he could only say: "Then...the king will come back tomorrow."
Zijuan looked up and saw a little annoyance on Prince Lian's face, but she couldn't bear to disturb the girl, so she hurriedly said: "It's okay for the prince to just walk in gently, I'll go and light the lamp."
"Don't do it." Shui Lan tried her best to keep her voice extremely low, "Madam felt light, and finally fell asleep, no one is allowed to disturb her."
As soon as she finished speaking, Daiyu turned over and sat up, calling softly and laughingly in the room: "Who is sleeping? Please come in quickly."
Shui Lan just walked in, only to see Dai Yuxiang's cheeks were flushed, and her eye circles were red, while raising her hand to straighten her temple hair, she asked him with a smile: "Your Majesty, is the banquet over?"
"Blame me for waking up Madam." Shui Lan sat down on the edge of the Kang, shoulder to shoulder with Daiyu, nodded and smiled, "Thanks to Chu Chen and Madam's quick wit, I even drank tonight's wine to my heart's content."
Because of his happy face, Daiyu also helped to make fun of it, she raised her lips and smiled: "Tanhualang's poems are really good, why don't you write a plaque ready-made and stick it on the door?"
While talking, the man had already got off the bed, rolled up his sleeves before going to the desk, and while grinding the ink with an ink ingot, his eyebrows were charming and charming: "I will personally serve the prince's ink."
Seeing her like this, Shui Lan was delighted, took a pen and dipped a little ink, and wrote the words "Hanhuilou" on the paper like flowing water, every word was fluent and graceful.
Daiyu took a closer look, clapped her palms and praised: "My lord's cursive script is really beautiful and round. In my opinion, the Jiang Weiqian Yan Tie, which is now highly praised, pales in comparison with my lord's handwriting."
Shui Lan put down his pen, his handsome face was pale, and he replied: "But each has his own strengths. The genius Jiang Wei is good at painting flowers and birds. I learned this handwriting from Yan Bojun, a great calligrapher. During the eight years when I was demoted, I really had nothing to do. It's nothing to worry about, just hang a load on your wrist for an hour or two every day, no matter how severe the cold or the hot summer, you can get a glimpse of the doorway, and it's not worth mentioning."
When Daiyu heard this, she couldn't help thinking of some things that hurt her, and she also sighed: "In the past, I just blamed myself. I had no parents and no relatives to rely on. Looking back now, I also made a mistake. I trampled on my body and survived. sick all over."
Afraid that her heart would sink, Shui Lan hurriedly changed the topic, lowered her head and saw that the ink was black and moist, not dizzy on the paper, and exuded a strong musk fragrance, so she laughed: "This Hui ink is light to touch and smells sweet. Ma'am can't use it much."
Daiyu was naturally puzzled, forgot what she said just now, and asked, "Why can't I use it?"
Shui Lan couldn't help showing the color of the fish biting the hook, pretending to be serious and said: "This musk smell is so strong, it is extremely unfavorable to the child's breath, how can I take risks? Madam, I want to add a pair of Xiaoshizi and Xiaojun to this king. host!"
Daiyu blushed when she saw her being mentioned, so she spat at him lightly: "He used some old and unserious words to bully me."
Shui Lan smiled, looked at her with a bit of teasing, and said in a very friendly tone: "This is strange. Madam and Xiao Wang have been married for more than three months, and Xiao Wang has never crossed the line."
Suddenly, he took two steps closer, his eyes sparkling, like the stars all over the sky: "It's not that I don't have this intention. It's just that if I really want to say bullying, maybe there will be little 'xiangyu', and wait until now." .”
It was the first time that he spoke so bluntly and bluntly, even though Daiyu used to have a glib tongue, she choked up at this moment, her face flushed immediately, Yiyi lowered her head, she was really ashamed Red, delicate face is better than hibiscus.
It turned out that Shui Lan thought it was useless to be an upright gentleman, especially the little snail-like lady, who was delicate and sensitive by nature, and would shrink back into her shell at the touch of a touch. If this quarrel continued, she might not be able to steam a basket of buns in three years , I can't help being excited.
"It's late at night, and I'm tired. The bed in Jumozhai is uncomfortable, so it's better here." Thinking about it, Shui Lan simply leaned on the bed and patted the embroidered pillow on Daiyu. The long eyes are slightly gazing, and the corner of the mouth smiles: "Madam, why don't you come up together, let's tilt our heads, and talk quietly for a while."
Daiyu was still a girl, and besides, she was her husband-in-law, so she believed it was true, got up and took another pillow to cover it, and they lay down facing each other.
Facing this face as beautiful as a crown of jade, Daiyu was still a little embarrassed, looking up at the roof of the house pretending to be.After talking a few gossips, he suddenly remembered, because he asked, "Where did the lord and those two meet?"
Perhaps it was a memory from too long ago, Shui Lan thought for a while, and then said: "Speaking of which, I probably have the luck to pick someone up. I met Wenren seven or eight years ago, when he just came down the mountain How long ago, Qishan Wenren's ancestral precept was never to be an official in the court, and his father was a strict and strict man, but he gave birth to such a disobedient son, who was kicked out of the family at the age of sixteen or seventeen."
As he said that, Shui Lan seemed to think of something interesting: "Chu Chen is even more interesting. He became famous at a young age and was known as a child prodigy. Zhuangzi outside the imperial mausoleum is next to each other, and we know each other from time to time. Once when he came over, he saw a poem written in two lines on the table: The west wind passed through the garden last night, and the yellow flowers fell all over the ground. He thought: chrysanthemums are hardy, How can the west wind blow down? So I wrote: Autumn flowers don't fall like spring flowers, and I said to An Lan to sing carefully." [Note 1]
Daiyu was fascinated by what he heard, and hurriedly urged him to continue talking, and saw a leisurely smile on Junyan's face: "I didn't say anything, and it will be autumn in two months, so I invite him to go to Huangzhou to appreciate chrysanthemums together. At the moment when the westerly wind suddenly tightened, there were yellow flowers everywhere, and the ground was covered with gold, that was the only time I saw Chu Chen stunned, it was really interesting."
Before she could finish her sentence, Daiyu clapped her palms together, and then laughed and said: "It turns out that great talents have also been beaten! They have very different personalities, and they are very talented, so they must have looked down on each other? "
Unexpectedly, Shui Lan shook her head, and turned to smirk slightly: "Not only did I not look down upon, Wenren admired Chu Chen's literary talent very much, but when it comes to the six secrets and three strategies, Chu Chen is not as good as Wenren, on the contrary Sympathy."
This answer was indeed beyond Daiyu's expectation. Thinking of the appearance of the three of them, she couldn't help but tease: "With the good reputation of the prince outside, if someone has no eyesight, I don't know what to misunderstand the two masters." people?"
Looking back, Shui Lan was looking at her with her cheeks raised, and sighed with a smile: "Although Madam is good at teasing, she is also a fool. I said that she is lying down in a gentle manner, can she really be like this?"
Daiyu didn't understand the meaning, she was startled when she saw what she said, and she replied blankly, "What are you talking about?"
Shui Lan didn't make a sound, but turned over neatly, stretched out his hands to scratch Daiyu's psoas and diaphragm, and said with a smile, "I see, do you beg for mercy this time?"
Daiyu could not help being itchy by nature, seeing him snort twice with both hands, she was afraid and hid away.However, due to the disparity in strength, he laughed until his face turned red and flustered, and he begged again and again: "My lord, please forgive me, I won't dare to talk about 'a good man who is known in the streets of Lianwang' in the future." !"
How could Shui Lan be willing to stop, holding back a smile and reaching out to scratch her armpits, took the opportunity to play a rogue: "It's useless to call out the prince, like a folk woman, call a good husband to listen?"
Daiyu shyly turned around without answering, grabbed her hand desperately to struggle, and was teased by Shuilan several times, she couldn't breathe from laughing for a while, tears gradually overflowed from the corners of her eyes, and she yelled indiscriminately: "Good lord... ...Good lord...good husband...please forgive me, if you make trouble again, if you make trouble again... oops!"
Shui Lan was delighted when he heard it, and his hands kept getting more and more non-stop. The two of them were making a fuss and fell on the kang. The laughter could be heard for about ten miles and eight streets. Lock the door latch, and tell everyone in the yard to go out for their own convenience, and not to disturb Master Hemei.
Coincidentally, Shui Lan was pressing her arm, and suddenly heard a faint fragrance from the sleeve.Looking down again, I saw the beautiful woman in my arms frowning with autumn eyes, with a charming expression, I couldn't help the sudden heartbeat, as if there was a cluster of fire burning in my heart, I kissed her forehead naturally, as soft and tender as in the morning dream Sweet, soul-stirring, and irresistible.
Shui Lan's touch was very light, almost full of pity, and his breath was filled with a cool and light fragrance. When he approached, Daiyu held her breath and closed her eyes subconsciously.
At this moment, the pair of forearm-thick candles in the room suddenly exploded, the shadows of the candles quivered slightly red, and a pair of obsessed people were reflected on the wall, giving birth to a charming atmosphere that filled the room, just like springtime.
The author has something to say: [Note 1] It comes from the allusions of Su Dongpo and Wang Anshi, which the author finds very interesting.
When Jia Mu heard this, she frowned, and asked with a cold face, "Where did you hear this? If there is a half-sentence of falsehood, I will only punish you."
Xiren hurriedly gambled and swore: "I served the old lady once, and I served the second master once. How dare I talk nonsense in the open sky? I dared to go back to the old lady after I asked the boys who followed the second master. There is no absolute degree of confidence in what you say.”
He bowed his head and hesitated for a while, then continued hesitantly: "Old lady, don't be angry. After all, Miss Lin and us are relatives in the same line. No matter how bad the second master is, no matter how bad he should be, he will never call someone to come—"
Halfway through the speech, Mother Jia snapped, "Shut up!"
The attacker knelt down in a panic, touched his head firmly to the ground, and tears rolled down like beads: "The little one is bold today, and said something offensive in front of the old lady: reasoning, the second master should be taught a lesson. This matter should have been strictly guarded against. But the last time Miss Lin returned to Ning, Lian Wang asked the master to change the name of the second master, saying that he had committed a taboo, and accompanied him to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion for two days; this time he was even more frightened. King Jing is doing well, so such a big incident happened this time. I thought, it must be the second master or his behavior and words are frivolous, but there is no reason why accidents happen every time we meet!"
When Jia Mu heard this, she was speechless for a while, and only took a heavy breath, but her complexion became darker.
Xiren observed her words and expressions, and saw Jia Mu's complexion changed, so he took the opportunity to say, "I'm afraid, I'm afraid, because I was annoyed by Miss Lin's marriage before, which made King Lian angry at the second master. For this reason, I really found someone The story put Erye to death, that's fine."
This sentence really touched Jia Mu's heart, so she lowered her face and said coldly, "Don't say a single thing you said here today. If the news gets out, you will be the first one to spare!"
When Jia's mother was in a rage, Xiren didn't dare to say any more at this moment. He quickly bowed his head and agreed, and slowly withdrew, thinking along the way: I don't know how much the old lady can listen to her words. If she really agrees, she will be exempted How much flesh and blood the second master suffered.
Seeing that the attacker was gone, Jia Mu stayed for a while, then Fang sighed, "Forget it, for nothing! If that's the case, I want to break up with us completely. I thought I could leave a way for Bao Yu'er, but Lin In the end, the girl only resembles Min'er three points, and the rest is followed by someone else, she is actually a heartless seed."
Because after reading this, I thought about it for a while, and thought: No matter how good the appearance of Lian Wang is, he will be useless in the end. It is better to ask someone to send a letter to Concubine Yuan, and it is serious to test the tone.
It is said that the Mid-Autumn Festival is here, the golden wind is refreshing, and the beauty is beautiful. From the rich and the wealthy to the ordinary people, they all go up to the building to enjoy the moon, sing and drink, and play all night long.
Recently, Daiyu is no different from the headed mistress in Beijing, they are both preparing for the Mid-Autumn festival.However, Prince Lian's mansion has very few contacts, and Shui Lan refuses to let the common affairs work for her, so he specially appointed four maids to help her, so her energy is limited, and she only prepares six-color large boxes with some high-quality fruit cakes, and then decorates them with jade-shaped and rich-style cakes. Flowers, distributed to each family to send.
After three or two days, gifts from various families came one after another. Perhaps Jia's mansion was venting their anger because of Baoyu's beating, and the ceremony was simpler than usual.Sister Feng sent Wang'er away and quietly gave another gift, saying that she was grateful for the concubine's words of consolation. Daiyu gave twice as much as her gift.
Most of the other people gave me mooncakes such as melon kernel oil with pine pulp and duck oil with double yellow lotus seed paste. The sweetness in the mouth was so bitter that it was really not to her liking, so she was a bit sleepy and refused to use it. The naked eye has lost weight again.
In the end, Shui Lan figured out a way, and asked someone to buy white hemp crisp cakes made of three-color jade rabbit pounded medicine, as well as crystal clear zongzi candies, golden and sweet pine nuts and southern jujube candies from Caizhizhai, a time-honored shop in Gusu County. A variety of Suzhou candied fruit, filled with several small pink porcelain jars, was delivered by water all the way.
Although Daiyu is not greedy for food and drink, she only loves Tuyi snacks in her hometown.Therefore, she was very happy now, and she would hold the porcelain jar in her arms, and take a piece of pine nut candy or candied golden dates in her mouth, happily brows, tasting the sweet and sour, refreshing taste, really The aftertaste is endless.
The two of them were having dinner that day, just as Dai Yu bit into a piece of rouge chicken breast, she suddenly raised her hand to caress her left cheek, and frowned deeply.
Shui Lan hurriedly put down the silver chopsticks, and asked with concern, "Madam, what's wrong?"
Just as Daiyu opened her mouth, the sudden severe pain forced her to tears, her black pupils were wet, and she shook her head lovingly.
When Shui Lan saw her like this, she became more and more concerned, and in the end, Qiu Wan beside her watched for a while, and reminded appropriately: "Madam, could it be that there are too many candied fruit and other food these days? These snacks are the most likely to get angry. If it accumulates, it will cause internal heat."
Before she could finish her sentence, Daiyu lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him. Shui Lan seemed to have some surprises, so Fang gave her a glance: "You are as greedy and naughty as a child. In the evening of autumn, quickly search out the snack cans of the princess, first Temporarily store it with you, and wait for her to drink chrysanthemum honey for a few days to lose her temper, and then pay it back to the princess."
Before Qiu Wan could respond, Daiyu was impatient, her head shook like a rattle, while enduring the pain, she grinned and said, "Don't, I won't obey!"
Hearing this, Shui Lan was really angry and funny, and deliberately put on a straight face, saying seriously: "If you don't comply, you have to. Qiuwan, go and take the jar away now."
Qiu Wan also smiled and agreed, and immediately hid the things, Daiyu watched eagerly, but her cheeks were so painful that she couldn't eat any more, so she had to lie on the kang reluctantly, her whole body wasted half.
Shui Lan was still rough and yellowish, so someone took a cactus and baked it to iron it, and applied it on her cheeks to clear away heat and relieve pain.It's just that Daiyu is afraid of the pain, and when she moves her hand a little, she can't help crying, and half of it is real pain and half is acting like a baby, Shui Lan stops her hand quickly every time, and does this three or four times before she finishes cooking.
After tossing and tossing for a while, Shui Lan helped Daiyu lean on the pillow, and the cool air slowly penetrated along the skin. Daiyu stared at his bright and handsome face for a while, and secretly smiled back: "Who would believe that?" Well, actually, with you here, I don't feel any pain."
Shui Lan smoothed her slightly messy temple hair for her, her movements were extremely gentle and careful, and she knew the severity better than Zicuckoo, and sighed lovingly: "You don't know how to feel sorry for others. Don't eat it for two days, and wait until everything is better." There are guests coming in the evening, and I will ask Chunxiao to bring you food to your room?"
When Daiyu asked who came, Shui Lan replied with a smile: "It's a coincidence. That day we went to see the No. When we arrived in Chuzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, Chu Chen ordered Hanlin to continue teaching editing and editing, so he will stay with the king to drive."
When Daiyu heard this, she wondered, "Why is the champion sent out to be an official, and Tanhua stays with His Majesty?"
When she was asked, Shui Lan explained to her in detail: "Ma'am, I don't know. In fact, there are advantages and disadvantages to both being sent out and staying in Beijing. Like Wenrenyu, if you do something with your heart, you can really do it. A few years of experience in going out will be beneficial to future promotion, and besides, His Majesty intends to use him, so the place to send him is the Jiangnan generation; for a person as talented and knowledgeable as Chu Chen, going out will not be able to show his strengths , or stay in the Hanlin Academy to serve, and he wrote a book every day, saying that anyone who can show his relatives and fame. Therefore, there is also a saying in "Huainanzi Binglue Training": If a person makes the best of his talents, he will use his strength."
Daiyufang realized it, and felt that he had benefited a lot, and heard him say: "Because I heard that people chose a day to leave, which coincided with the Mid-Autumn Festival, the two of them discussed going to the house to get together tonight. It's been a while."
It was night, and everyone in the palace knew that there was a visitor, so they cleaned the table and prepared the dishes, and arranged them.At one o'clock, the sky was as clear as a mirror, and the silver pot was shining brightly, making it even more beautiful and lovely than before.It happened that the two of them entered the mansion together, and because of inconvenience, the noise was too great, so the long attendant had to greet them from the corner gate.
The two first paid a visit to Shuilan, and said a few words to each other. Shuilan looked at the moon in the sky, and said with a smile: "If you want to enjoy the moon, the mountain is the best. It's a pity that there is no mountain here. Let's go upstairs to enjoy it. There are also two sweet-scented osmanthus trees, the scenery is better."
The two naturally agreed, and followed the winding path for more than a hundred steps to a dangerous building.Because the water light and the moon shadow overlapped on the bank of the Taiwan-built pool, they were shining brightly, so a plaque was written saying Qiongyu Tower, but there was no connection between the left and the right.
Upstairs, in the Zhuzhu Painting Building, a table of wine and banquets was set up by the window, with dishes, vegetables, fruits and other things displayed.Shui Lan was in the middle of the top, listening to people's words on the left, and Chu Chen on the right. They all asked him to sit down first, and then sat down one by one.
Shui Lan held the pot, poured a cup, and respected first: "I haven't seen one for a long time, and now I'm talking about some romantic and elegant things, and I have given away the common names like princes and ministers. The second is to practice for the people, and congratulate you two The joy of being named on the gold list, I respect you brother Yu first."
The two dared not even say it, and each had a drink with them.Hearing that people are good at eloquence, Cheng Huan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty discouraged me from waiting. Theoretically, it should be that I wait to respect my Majesty first, and I will finally have a chance to make a big splash."
He didn't finish the sentence, but Chu Chen next to him curled his lips, but he was handsome and refined, so he didn't look ugly like this, and laughed, "I said some nonsense, and I didn't want to insult the good wine and bright moon."
Wen Renyu knew him as a human being, so he didn't feel embarrassed when he gave a thin smile, but Shui Lan clapped his hands and laughed: "You two are still the same, you are a pair of black-eyed chickens, and you don't think it's uncomfortable to live a day without bickering. .”
When the two heard this, they looked at each other tacitly, and then both laughed again.
While the wine was in full swing, Shui Lan took a look at the beautiful scenery outside the window, pondered for a while, and suggested to the two of them: "Since that's the case, let's make a couplet right now, so it's better to write it in this building."
Hearing people's words, he knew that Chu Chen had the talent to compose poetry in seven steps. Although he was above all others, he thought that he was not good at chanting, and he had no intention of competing with Chu Chen, so he humbly showed his talent to the fullest.
Sure enough, the words still lingered in his ears, so Chu Chen immediately thought about something, and chanted casually: "Zhu Zangze is self-beautiful, and Yuyun Mountain is full of brilliance."
Both Shui Lan and Wenren applauded, especially Wenrenyu. He has always admired Chu Chen's talent, and said happily: "It's wonderful! If Chu Chen writes another poem, he will write How about changing the name of this building to Hanhui so as to live up to the people and scenery?"
While speaking, Chu Chen's heart was synthesized, and he wrote it on the paper, showing it to the two of them.
Shui Lan looked at it, nodded and said nothing.He ordered someone to copy it down, turned his back and whispered: "Send this poem to Madam, and then bring Madam's reply."
The attendant got the order and immediately ran out, Shui Lan smiled secretly, waiting for Daiyu's answer.
Let's say that Daiyu is leaning on the couch, Zijuan is doing needlework, and Chunxiao is talking about inquiring about Wang's and Baoyu's beatings.Chunxiao was like a storyteller with a tongue full of lotus blossoms, and she was beating and talking lively. Zijuan kept her head down and glanced at Daiyu from time to time.
Just seeing Qiu Wan walk in, Dai Yuyin asked, "Where did you come from? The prince and the guests are still eating?"
Qiu Wan shook her hand and said with a smile: "There is a reason, the prince sent someone to send a piece of paper, and I want to show it to the princess." After hearing this, Daiyu felt bored and thought to herself: Please treat him well. Customer, what kind of paper do you send with white eyebrows and red eyes?
After unfolding it, it turned out that it was a couplet and a quatrain, but I felt that the rhetoric was rich and elegant, and the literary debate was romantic, so I couldn't help but get up and call it wonderful.Asked who made it, Qiu Wan hurriedly replied: "It's Chu Tanhua from Jinke. The prince asked the young man to wait outside and wait for the princess to reply."
Daiyu thought about these words, and just touching her heart, she couldn't help being happy, thinking: He really understands people's minds, so he won't waste my thinking.
It turned out that Shui Lan had already expected that Daiyu would be a little bit eager to write poetry when she saw Chu Chen composing poems, and wanted to express her poetic quality, so she ordered her to wait.
Walking slowly to the window, looking at the Milky Way and the sea of stars in the sky, and the shadow of the moon in the pool, Daiyu lit the lamp, dipped the pen in the ink, and wrote three poems on the paper excitedly.
After finishing writing, the attendants flew to report to Hanhui Tower again.Shui Lan took it and put it on the table, with a smile on his lips: "Look at this, don't hesitate to comment."
Wen Renyu looked at it from the beginning, and saw that the first sentence reads: Muyun collects all the coldness, and the cold dew silently turns the jade plate.Under my heart, I realized that it was a woman's handwriting, but she pretended to be happy and asked: "It's very suitable for the occasion, and it's also novel. I don't know if it was made by that famous hand in the prince's house?"
Shui Lan remained silent, and glanced at Chu Chen.But seeing his eyebrows frowning, looking at it for a while, Fang said: "Of course it is unique, but it hurts its delicacy. For example, in this first sentence, it would be better to change two words, and a little embellishment for the rest will make it."
After hearing this, the two of them were all excited, and hurriedly urged to continue.Chu Chen didn't answer, and raised his head for a while to consider, and changed the word "Lenglu" to Yinhan, and deleted all the words below.
After a little deliberation, when I heard people's words and saw it, and was praising it repeatedly, Shui Lan couldn't help laughing at Yan Yan, and secretly asked someone to copy a copy and deliver it inside.
On the other side, Qiu Wan said all that Chu Chen had said, and Dai Yuyuan was a little annoyed, thinking to himself that he was making such a bold statement, but we should see his ability.
After seeing the polished manuscript, he was not only surprised, but also praised him endlessly: "I am really not as good as him. Although I only erased a few places, it is a hundred times more elegant. My manuscript will be burned soon."
Saying that, Qiuwan saw her eyebrows slightly relaxed again, and said with a smile: "Please bring a word to the prince: Tan Hualang is amazing and stunning, and Mr. Xiaoxiang thought it was impossible to add, so he stopped writing."
At that time, when it reached Shui Lan's ears, he laughed and told Wen Ren and Chu Chen to listen.Wen Ren was originally very clever, pursed his lips and said nothing; Chu Chen was biased in human affairs and common affairs, and Quan was regarded as Lian Wangyan's Qing guest, with a glow of approval in his eyes: "The literati have always looked down on each other, how noble and self-sufficient are you?" Xu, this gentleman is very talented, but he has the capacity to tolerate others, which is very valuable."
As Chu Chen said, he drank the wine in front of the door with his neck up, his cheeks turned rosy immediately, and he smiled without any distractions: "My lord, why don't you invite someone here, Chu Chen wants to meet this king and talk about poetry together Wouldn't it be interesting to write lyrics?"
Seeing that Shui Lan's smile faltered slightly, and hearing how smooth people's speech was, he quietly tugged at him and gave him a secret wink.
Chu Chen just came to his senses, and hurriedly covered his mouth without mentioning it, but Shui Lan said with a smile: "It's okay, but she has been in poor health for the past two days, and she is resting in bed, so I can't see each other. Next time there is a fate, I will meet again." meeting."
Chu Chen was about to speak again, but because he had guessed who he heard, he was afraid that he would inadvertently speak abruptly, so he hurriedly stopped Chu Chen, and said, "You poetry nerd has committed stupidity again. I met you two days ago. A famous inscription has opened your bag of words. Now I have to pull people together again, I can't bear the noise." Shui Lan and Wen Renyu couldn't help laughing. .
After rambling a few more words, it is inevitable that some court affairs will be discussed.Chu Chen didn't like the officialdom, so he just sat and listened silently, and occasionally interrupted while drinking; but he was good at this when hearing people's words, and gradually began to talk loudly: "I see your majesty's posture, on the surface, he is still filial to the emperor, but he still has a hand behind his back." If you want to push the Meng family to become a rising upstart, sooner or later they will fight against that group of old ministers, and the best show is yet to come."
Chu Chen held a green glaze cup in his hand, squinted his eyes and shook it, and continued lazily: "I heard a letter in a trance. For the previous lawsuit against the two kings, His Majesty drafted a decree with the Imperial Academy. , I am afraid that the emperor will not agree, and I will still wait for it."
With carelessness in her long eyes, Shui Lan took a sip of the wine before saying: "This is an inevitable failure. Your Majesty summoned me yesterday and asked me this question again. I just said Zheng Zhuanggong and his brother uncle Duan The allusions, the rest are too lazy to talk about."
Hearing people's words, he couldn't help but praise Shui Lan's words: "The prince is so good at killing people. It is said in "Customs of the Customs": the long official's horse is fat, the observer is quick, and the rider is happy with his words, so he drives endlessly until he dies .Follow the madness of the two kings with sincerity, the upper emperor indulges, and the lower officials help, sooner or later it will become a disaster, your majesty just wait."
Although Chu Chen didn't understand these things, but only listened to the allusions of the two of them, he also understood their meaning, and said coldly: "The king of Chengjun always thought that he was the son of the old East Palace, and his intentions were unquestionable. I don't believe that the emperor has never heard of it. Two, is it all on deaf ears? After all, His Majesty is the emperor's son, and his elbow really turned a corner."
Unknowingly frowned, Shui Lan nodded and sighed: "It's not that the emperor doesn't care about His Majesty, but there is no father and son in the Tian family, only the monarch and his ministers."
The two of them didn't want to talk more when they saw him, but they just laughed it off and struck up a conversation with him.
Recently, the Queen of Qianxiang Kingdom came to court for the yearly offering, which was considered a piece of news. Hearing people started a conversation and said: "Qianxiang Kingdom is far away in the ocean. That's right, Chu Chen and I also got rewarded red musk skewers."
Shui Lan squinted at him, with a mocking smile: "Your Majesty got a few strings of red musk beads and red sweat scarves, and distributed them to the princes and ministers below. You and Chu Chen got them, didn't they?" The filial piety of the King of Beijing?"
Before he could say a word, Wen Renyu's face was flushed, and he cupped his hands embarrassingly and said: "Your Highness is the most sensible person, King Beijing Jing is like Sima Zhao's heart, everyone has known it for a long time."
It was rare for Chu Chen to see him deflated, so he took advantage of the situation to make a laugh, and said tauntingly, "A Yu, who is usually like a loach, has met the prince, and is just a salty fish that can't turn over!"
"It doesn't matter." Shui Lan feared that people's words would be boring, so she stopped them with a smile: "Shui Rong is also called the King of Sour, and he intends to win over you, but it shows that you are talented. I sent a few words the day before yesterday, he should be more vigilant , at least don’t fool around with me.”
The three of them discussed for a while, and Shui Lan asked people to serve tea to hangover.Seeing that all the tea bowls brought were Yue Porcelain bowls with rhombic flower mouths, the color was as moist as fat, and the patterns were elegant and clean, so he laughed and said, "This tea bowl is good, very elegant and lovely."
Shui Lan listened, and although she smiled reservedly, she showed a complacent expression on her face: "Where did I get the fun? It's all the idea of the princess, she is very good at tidying up the utensils, and she arranges them elegantly."
Chu Chen kept nodding his head, Wen Renyu glanced at him, then lowered his head and pretended to be drinking tea.
At this moment, the night was getting darker, and the two saw the wind and desolation outside, so they left hand in hand.Shui Lan was afraid that the moss road would be slippery, so he ordered people to hold the horn lamps and send them to the front of the hall in person.
That Chu Chen was about to leave, when he saw people watching with a smile under the lamplight, he said with a smile: "I don't have any flowers growing on my face, and I'm still waiting for the prince to give you supper?"
Wen Renyu couldn't help but shook his head, and said with a smile: "You, just keep your mouth shut, and when it is really useful, you will become a fool."
After hearing this, Chu Chen knew there was an article, and hurriedly asked, "How do you say that?"
Wen Renyu pulled him into the car and said, "Let me ask you, do you really not know who wrote that poem, or are you just pretending not to?"
Chu Chen was confused when he heard that, and frowned, "What's the truth? I can't understand a word you said."
Seeing his ignorant face, Wen Renyu sighed: "Those three poems are clearly written by women. Apart from the concubine, there are no female relatives in the palace. You are still in a hurry to meet, what is your intention?"
Chu Chen's face flushed, and because he had been thinking for a long time, he clapped his hands and shouted: "That's it. The language of the strange way is beautiful, and the allusions are exquisite. I still think that the man with an exquisite heart is the princess. handwriting!"
"What a stupid thing, fortunately the prince is generous." Seeing his interesting appearance, Wen Renyu raised his eyebrows and jokingly said, "Now I'm going to Jiangnan, you are so unreasonable, what's the matter?"
Chu Chen didn't say anything, but was still thinking about the scene just now, and seemed to mutter to himself: "It's a pity that men and women are different, and there is a distinction between superiority and inferiority. Otherwise, we only talk about poetry and Ci, and we should be a bosom friend."
Looking up at the sky, the moon is clear and the wind is shining, and the scenery is shining brightly, and my eyes are fascinated for a while.
But Shui Lan sent the two of them back, walking on the road together, remembering that Daiyu was still recuperating in the room, so she didn't go to see her, but wanted to visit her.If she just passed by like this, she might be overwhelmed by the moisture on her body, so she would rather go around and change clothes before going.
After changing clothes, I went into Daiyu's room first. Seeing Chunxiao and Zijuan talking outside, I asked, "Ma'am, haven't you slept yet?"
The two got up and greeted Ann, ordered someone to make tea and bring it in, Chun Xiao pouted inwardly, and replied: "It's unfortunate that the prince came, the princess just took a rest, please wait until tomorrow."
Shui Lan looked in, and saw the Xiang curtain hanging down to the ground, dark and silent, so he could only say: "Then...the king will come back tomorrow."
Zijuan looked up and saw a little annoyance on Prince Lian's face, but she couldn't bear to disturb the girl, so she hurriedly said: "It's okay for the prince to just walk in gently, I'll go and light the lamp."
"Don't do it." Shui Lan tried her best to keep her voice extremely low, "Madam felt light, and finally fell asleep, no one is allowed to disturb her."
As soon as she finished speaking, Daiyu turned over and sat up, calling softly and laughingly in the room: "Who is sleeping? Please come in quickly."
Shui Lan just walked in, only to see Dai Yuxiang's cheeks were flushed, and her eye circles were red, while raising her hand to straighten her temple hair, she asked him with a smile: "Your Majesty, is the banquet over?"
"Blame me for waking up Madam." Shui Lan sat down on the edge of the Kang, shoulder to shoulder with Daiyu, nodded and smiled, "Thanks to Chu Chen and Madam's quick wit, I even drank tonight's wine to my heart's content."
Because of his happy face, Daiyu also helped to make fun of it, she raised her lips and smiled: "Tanhualang's poems are really good, why don't you write a plaque ready-made and stick it on the door?"
While talking, the man had already got off the bed, rolled up his sleeves before going to the desk, and while grinding the ink with an ink ingot, his eyebrows were charming and charming: "I will personally serve the prince's ink."
Seeing her like this, Shui Lan was delighted, took a pen and dipped a little ink, and wrote the words "Hanhuilou" on the paper like flowing water, every word was fluent and graceful.
Daiyu took a closer look, clapped her palms and praised: "My lord's cursive script is really beautiful and round. In my opinion, the Jiang Weiqian Yan Tie, which is now highly praised, pales in comparison with my lord's handwriting."
Shui Lan put down his pen, his handsome face was pale, and he replied: "But each has his own strengths. The genius Jiang Wei is good at painting flowers and birds. I learned this handwriting from Yan Bojun, a great calligrapher. During the eight years when I was demoted, I really had nothing to do. It's nothing to worry about, just hang a load on your wrist for an hour or two every day, no matter how severe the cold or the hot summer, you can get a glimpse of the doorway, and it's not worth mentioning."
When Daiyu heard this, she couldn't help thinking of some things that hurt her, and she also sighed: "In the past, I just blamed myself. I had no parents and no relatives to rely on. Looking back now, I also made a mistake. I trampled on my body and survived. sick all over."
Afraid that her heart would sink, Shui Lan hurriedly changed the topic, lowered her head and saw that the ink was black and moist, not dizzy on the paper, and exuded a strong musk fragrance, so she laughed: "This Hui ink is light to touch and smells sweet. Ma'am can't use it much."
Daiyu was naturally puzzled, forgot what she said just now, and asked, "Why can't I use it?"
Shui Lan couldn't help showing the color of the fish biting the hook, pretending to be serious and said: "This musk smell is so strong, it is extremely unfavorable to the child's breath, how can I take risks? Madam, I want to add a pair of Xiaoshizi and Xiaojun to this king. host!"
Daiyu blushed when she saw her being mentioned, so she spat at him lightly: "He used some old and unserious words to bully me."
Shui Lan smiled, looked at her with a bit of teasing, and said in a very friendly tone: "This is strange. Madam and Xiao Wang have been married for more than three months, and Xiao Wang has never crossed the line."
Suddenly, he took two steps closer, his eyes sparkling, like the stars all over the sky: "It's not that I don't have this intention. It's just that if I really want to say bullying, maybe there will be little 'xiangyu', and wait until now." .”
It was the first time that he spoke so bluntly and bluntly, even though Daiyu used to have a glib tongue, she choked up at this moment, her face flushed immediately, Yiyi lowered her head, she was really ashamed Red, delicate face is better than hibiscus.
It turned out that Shui Lan thought it was useless to be an upright gentleman, especially the little snail-like lady, who was delicate and sensitive by nature, and would shrink back into her shell at the touch of a touch. If this quarrel continued, she might not be able to steam a basket of buns in three years , I can't help being excited.
"It's late at night, and I'm tired. The bed in Jumozhai is uncomfortable, so it's better here." Thinking about it, Shui Lan simply leaned on the bed and patted the embroidered pillow on Daiyu. The long eyes are slightly gazing, and the corner of the mouth smiles: "Madam, why don't you come up together, let's tilt our heads, and talk quietly for a while."
Daiyu was still a girl, and besides, she was her husband-in-law, so she believed it was true, got up and took another pillow to cover it, and they lay down facing each other.
Facing this face as beautiful as a crown of jade, Daiyu was still a little embarrassed, looking up at the roof of the house pretending to be.After talking a few gossips, he suddenly remembered, because he asked, "Where did the lord and those two meet?"
Perhaps it was a memory from too long ago, Shui Lan thought for a while, and then said: "Speaking of which, I probably have the luck to pick someone up. I met Wenren seven or eight years ago, when he just came down the mountain How long ago, Qishan Wenren's ancestral precept was never to be an official in the court, and his father was a strict and strict man, but he gave birth to such a disobedient son, who was kicked out of the family at the age of sixteen or seventeen."
As he said that, Shui Lan seemed to think of something interesting: "Chu Chen is even more interesting. He became famous at a young age and was known as a child prodigy. Zhuangzi outside the imperial mausoleum is next to each other, and we know each other from time to time. Once when he came over, he saw a poem written in two lines on the table: The west wind passed through the garden last night, and the yellow flowers fell all over the ground. He thought: chrysanthemums are hardy, How can the west wind blow down? So I wrote: Autumn flowers don't fall like spring flowers, and I said to An Lan to sing carefully." [Note 1]
Daiyu was fascinated by what he heard, and hurriedly urged him to continue talking, and saw a leisurely smile on Junyan's face: "I didn't say anything, and it will be autumn in two months, so I invite him to go to Huangzhou to appreciate chrysanthemums together. At the moment when the westerly wind suddenly tightened, there were yellow flowers everywhere, and the ground was covered with gold, that was the only time I saw Chu Chen stunned, it was really interesting."
Before she could finish her sentence, Daiyu clapped her palms together, and then laughed and said: "It turns out that great talents have also been beaten! They have very different personalities, and they are very talented, so they must have looked down on each other? "
Unexpectedly, Shui Lan shook her head, and turned to smirk slightly: "Not only did I not look down upon, Wenren admired Chu Chen's literary talent very much, but when it comes to the six secrets and three strategies, Chu Chen is not as good as Wenren, on the contrary Sympathy."
This answer was indeed beyond Daiyu's expectation. Thinking of the appearance of the three of them, she couldn't help but tease: "With the good reputation of the prince outside, if someone has no eyesight, I don't know what to misunderstand the two masters." people?"
Looking back, Shui Lan was looking at her with her cheeks raised, and sighed with a smile: "Although Madam is good at teasing, she is also a fool. I said that she is lying down in a gentle manner, can she really be like this?"
Daiyu didn't understand the meaning, she was startled when she saw what she said, and she replied blankly, "What are you talking about?"
Shui Lan didn't make a sound, but turned over neatly, stretched out his hands to scratch Daiyu's psoas and diaphragm, and said with a smile, "I see, do you beg for mercy this time?"
Daiyu could not help being itchy by nature, seeing him snort twice with both hands, she was afraid and hid away.However, due to the disparity in strength, he laughed until his face turned red and flustered, and he begged again and again: "My lord, please forgive me, I won't dare to talk about 'a good man who is known in the streets of Lianwang' in the future." !"
How could Shui Lan be willing to stop, holding back a smile and reaching out to scratch her armpits, took the opportunity to play a rogue: "It's useless to call out the prince, like a folk woman, call a good husband to listen?"
Daiyu shyly turned around without answering, grabbed her hand desperately to struggle, and was teased by Shuilan several times, she couldn't breathe from laughing for a while, tears gradually overflowed from the corners of her eyes, and she yelled indiscriminately: "Good lord... ...Good lord...good husband...please forgive me, if you make trouble again, if you make trouble again... oops!"
Shui Lan was delighted when he heard it, and his hands kept getting more and more non-stop. The two of them were making a fuss and fell on the kang. The laughter could be heard for about ten miles and eight streets. Lock the door latch, and tell everyone in the yard to go out for their own convenience, and not to disturb Master Hemei.
Coincidentally, Shui Lan was pressing her arm, and suddenly heard a faint fragrance from the sleeve.Looking down again, I saw the beautiful woman in my arms frowning with autumn eyes, with a charming expression, I couldn't help the sudden heartbeat, as if there was a cluster of fire burning in my heart, I kissed her forehead naturally, as soft and tender as in the morning dream Sweet, soul-stirring, and irresistible.
Shui Lan's touch was very light, almost full of pity, and his breath was filled with a cool and light fragrance. When he approached, Daiyu held her breath and closed her eyes subconsciously.
At this moment, the pair of forearm-thick candles in the room suddenly exploded, the shadows of the candles quivered slightly red, and a pair of obsessed people were reflected on the wall, giving birth to a charming atmosphere that filled the room, just like springtime.
The author has something to say: [Note 1] It comes from the allusions of Su Dongpo and Wang Anshi, which the author finds very interesting.
