People who think I'm ugly are so sweet

When Xu Xilu changed his clothes before going to bed, he realized that the seal Song Yanqing gave him had disappeared at some point.His heart skipped a beat, as if he had seen Song Yanqing's dragon roaring, he hurriedly ordered his servants to look for it in Xu's residence.He couldn't find it in Xu's residence, and he took a few people to the street to look for it in the middle of the night, but unfortunately they still found nothing.Xu Xilu's mood at the moment was as if her husband had lost his wedding ring not long after the wedding, and he was so guilty that he didn't dare to let his wife know.

Jiudong comforted him: "The little prince wants nothing, it's just a seal, he will definitely not be angry."

Xu Xilu covered his face, and said irritably, "You are still too naive." Although Song Yanqing was a prince, she had a ladylike temper, and sometimes she was even more difficult to coax than a woman.In the final analysis, this incident was Xu Xilu's mistake. The seal, engraved with Song Yanqing's name, was engraved by the same craftsman as the seal in Prince Duan's hand. It must be of great significance to him. Song Yanqing I gave the seal to myself, but I...

Xu Xilu was almost overwhelmed by guilt, he put down his hands, and said in a deep voice, "Keep looking. Wait until dawn, and then go ask people on the street."

After searching for several days, Xu Xilu still didn't even see the shadow of the seal.He didn't dare to post the missing item notice, if Song Yanqing saw it, he would just walk around with nothing to eat.After finding out, he had no choice but to give up, and was going to visit Song Yanqing to explain the matter in person when Song Yanqing was in a good mood.

On the other hand, Xu Xilu has a real job in the Ministry of War.The emperor will have a military parade at the end of the year, and the entire military department is busy with it, including Xu Xilu.In the past few days, he returned to the residence very late, and after finally waiting for Xiumu, he had to accompany Mrs. Xie to Qingcheng Mountain.

On this day, the Xie family received a letter from Xie Qingshen from Huaishui.The letter said that the situation in Huaishui had stabilized, and Xie Qingsu's injury gradually improved, and he could get out of bed and walk now.Mrs. Xie was very relieved to see it. It happened that Qingcheng Mountain had been repaired and reopened, so she wanted to go to the mountain to pray and fulfill her wish.

"Open the mountain again?" Xu Xilu paused, "Have those apricot flowers been loaded?"

Xie said: "I heard that the apricot flowers in Qingcheng Mountain are all transported from Bianzhou, which is rich in apricot flowers, all the way.

When the apricot blossoms are in full bloom, it is the time when he and Lu Xiangrong will meet again.Xu Xilu knew that he couldn't escape.

Seeing that his complexion was not right, Mrs. Xie thought that he had been busy with official duties for the past few days and was exhausted, so he said: "It's rare for you to take a rest, so you should rest at home to refresh your spirit and don't need to accompany me."

Xu Xilu forced a smile on his face, "How can I let my mother go alone, I just happen to have something to go to Qingcheng Mountain."

Mrs. Xie said no more after hearing the words, Zhao Hua came over with a letter and said, "Second Young Master, this is a letter from Fifth Young Master Xie."

Xu Xilu froze for a moment, took the letter, looked at the word "Xilu" on it, and remembered that night, when Xie Qingsu was pushed away by him, the aggrieved and helpless expression.

After returning to the Tidal Pavilion, he opened the letter, and there were only two sentences in the letter: "Linglong dice and red beans, you will know who you are when you are deeply in love." People are pleasing to the eye.Xu Xilu stared at the word "Lovesickness" for a long time, and felt as if he had knocked over a five-flavored bottle, feeling relieved and sad at the same time.Xianjun will take the initiative to hold people's hands and write love letters, but he has no luck.

Early the next morning, Xu Xilu accompanied Mrs. Xie to Mount Qingcheng.When the spring breeze hits, the petals are like rain, but the fluttering flowers are no longer peach blossoms.

Xie looked at the apricot blossoms blooming all over Qingcheng Mountain, and sighed: "The apricot blossoms are pink in white, making them more charming, and the fragrance of the flowers is much stronger than that of peach blossoms."

Zhaohua said with a smile: "Although the peach blossoms are good, you will get tired of looking at them for a long time. According to my maidservant, the apricot blossoms all over the mountain are much more beautiful than the peach blossoms before."

Xu Xilu looked at the fallen flowers piled up under the tree like fragrant snow, and felt that the pink and white petals were so beautiful that they were a bit coquettish and dazzling.Just as he was fascinated, he heard Xie say: "Xi Lu, I'm going to the front hall to burn a few sticks of incense, do you want to come with me?"

"No," Xu Xilu said with a smile, "Mom, let's go, I want to enjoy the flowers here."

Mrs. Xie nodded, and said: "Don't go too far, let's have a vegetarian meal here at noon."

Today is the first day after the renovation of Qingcheng Mountain, there is an endless stream of tourists. In addition to believers who come to burn incense and worship Buddha, there are also many literati who come to enjoy flowers.When Xu Xilu was walking towards the back garden, he heard several young gentlemen dressed as scholars discussing the reason why the peach blossoms in Qingcheng Mountain turned into apricot blossoms.

"Back then, in order to please the Empress Dowager Shen, the first emperor planted peach blossoms all over Qingcheng Mountain. Today, the emperor suddenly wants to plant apricot blossoms instead, and I don't know why."

"I heard that today I got the advice of an immortal in my dream. Only by planting apricot blossoms in Qingcheng Mountain can I be blessed with good weather in the coming year, and the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe."

A scholar chuckled lightly, and said: "Do you also believe this kind of thing? It's just an excuse to stop Youyou's mouth."

"Oh? According to Brother Zhao, why do you want to do this today?"

The young man surnamed Zhao waved a folding fan, and the old god said: "Since ancient times, heroes have been saddened by the beauty pass. In ancient times, King You of Zhou made a beacon fire to play with the princes, and only Bao Si smiled all over the city; The sweetheart puts on a smile and pulls it out, it's nothing to Jinshang."

Xu Xilu quickened his pace and walked past them.The backyard was full of pilgrims of the potential mind Buddha, and it was quite quiet. Xu Xilu breathed a sigh of relief, but heard an ethereal voice saying: "Xinghua has nowhere to escape the sorrow of spring, the benefactor is frowning, and he is full of worries. What's the trouble?"

Xu Xilu looked around and saw an old monk sweeping flowers with a broom, his eyes were slightly closed, and his face was indifferent and calm.Xu Xilu felt that the monk looked familiar, and asked, "Dare to ask the elder, where did we meet?"

The old monk bowed his head and said, "The year before last, the poor monk suffered a catastrophe and was forced to beg on the street. He once counted a death penalty for the benefactor, and the benefactor generously donated money to help the poor monk get through the hardship. The poor monk would like to thank the benefactor for his life-saving grace .”

Xu Xilu immediately remembered, "Are you the one who said I was destined to offend the three peach blossoms?"

"It's the poor monk." The old monk said, "I don't know if the benefactor's three peach blossoms are in full bloom or not?"

Xu Xilu, who once believed in science, was subverted again, and he couldn't help sighing: "You are really an eminent monk who knows things like a god!"

The old monk said lightly: "The benefactor is too praised."

Xu Xilu asked eagerly: "Eminent Monk, I don't know if there is a solution to my three peach blossoms?"

"It depends on you, the benefactor. Do you want to pick one of them, or give up all of them?"

"I—" Xu Xilu paused, he really hadn't thought about this question.It is impossible to pick all three flowers, if only one is picked, the other two will be turned upside down? "What if I want to leave it all?" he asked.

The old monk shook his head, "Benefactor, I met you on the street that day. The poor monk once told you that these three peach blossoms of yours are rare in the world. Only by making a decision as soon as possible can you avoid future troubles. Now, if the benefactor wants to get away, I am afraid it will be too late." That's too late."

It's too late... Xu Xilu froze in place, pondering what the old monk said, his heart was in a mess.How can he make a decision sooner?The development of the matter is simply out of his control!Back then, he had clearly decided to hold hands with Xie Qingsu, but the two had to separate due to various accidents.But now things are different, as the old monk said, he no longer has the right to make choices.

Xu Xilu regained his senses, and wanted to ask the old monk a few words, but the old monk disappeared at some point.Xu Xilu couldn't help sighing, it turns out that there really are legendary outsiders in this world.

"That elder, what did you just say to you?"

Xu Xilu was stunned for a moment, then turned his head slowly, and saw Lu Xiangrong standing under the apricot tree, looking at him with full eyes, like the jade tree facing the wind when he first met, as beautiful as jade.

Xu Xilu lowered his eyebrows, pushed aside the hem of his clothes, and knelt down straight to him and kowtowed, "My humble servant Xu Xilu, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

Song Yanche raised his eyebrows, not surprised, and asked with a smile, "Ah, I was discovered by you."

Xu Xilu lowered his head and lowered his eyes, "Several times before, my minister was too blind to recognize Mount Tai, so I beg your Majesty to commit the crime."

"Get up." Song Yanche said softly, "Since we are outside the palace, Aiqing doesn't need to be too polite. As usual, just call me 'Mr. Lu'."

"I obey the order." Xu Xilu stood up and looked at the gentle man in front of him. It was really impossible to connect him with the king of the country.I haven't seen him in January, the emperor seems to have lost some weight, and his complexion is not very good-looking. It is obviously the season of warm spring and flowers blooming, and he is still wearing a snow-white fox fur. "Master Lu, are you feeling unwell?"

Song Yanche nodded, and patiently explained to him: "A while ago I had a cold attack, and I just got better yesterday."

"Then why does Mr. Lu still..."

"Still coming to the appointment?" Song Yanche looked at Xu Xilu with mist in his beautiful eyes, "I let you know that I'm not in good health, and I still come to see you, so you will be moved."

Xu Xilu bowed his head and lowered his eyebrows, "I dare not."

Song Yanche stretched out his hand, picked off a small cluster of apricot blossoms, and asked, "Do you like the gift I gave you?"

Xu Xilu only hated himself for being mean-spirited back then, "I'm terrified."

Song Yanche walked to Xu Xilu's side, and said with a light smile, "I have fulfilled your wish, what do you want to fulfill your wish, Xilu?"
