Another year of Shangsi Festival, the same waterside and ceremony.Feng Zihuan is naturally present, and Cui Xuanji is even more so where there is Feng Zihuan and where there is her; Feng Zizhang came from the palace early this morning, and when he arrived, he saw that Concubine Duan and Concubine Ning were here, and the two imperial daughters were also here : It really is spring outing.

"Hey, it's so lively." Xie Yan whispered behind her.Before going out, she thought about it for a while, and finally decided to take Xie Yan with her.Why not bring it?Do I care what other people think of me?It's a day to talk about love, maybe if you guys have a blatant sex, I can't hang out with the person I like?

"Coming?" Feng Zihuan said lazily, Feng Zizhang replied yes, he met the two imperial concubines again, and introduced the two imperial concubines to know Xie Yan behind him, Fang sat down beside him.The two princesses came up to greet them, and asked Feng Zihuan if they could go to the water to play. "No, what if I fall into the water?" Feng Zihuan pretended not to agree, with an angry face, Cui Xuanji smiled behind her, and gave Feng Xu a wink, Feng Xu immediately suggested that if mother was worried, she could call Cui Qing went with us, "That's right, with Cui Qing together, are you afraid of any mistakes? Cui Qing can protect mother, but are you afraid that she can't protect us?" Feng Xi continued to add, so that Feng Zihuan He laughed, turned his head and said to Cui Xuanji: "Did you hear that, people think you have a great responsibility."

"The minister has no shirkable responsibility."

"Okay, okay. Then you guys go. Xuan Ji, watch them, don't play too much."

Cui Xuanji said yes again and again, then followed the two queens and walked towards the water.Feng Zizhang looked around and saw that there were mostly children from the Jiankang family playing by the water, so it would be good if Cui Xuanji followed, Feng Xu would naturally not make any trouble, but he was afraid that Feng Xi would make too much trouble.But since there are these children, then...

Sure enough, children and a lot of family members were invited, so there were parents; although most of the patriarchs of the big clan who were hit hard in last year's rebellion were still working for the court for nothing and had lost all their vigor and did not attend, they still sent their own clan My son, have fun with the royal family——Feng Zihuan tried to show both kindness and power, but he didn't know if he could successfully scare these people into trembling and become obedient.

But the person who came to congratulate him is not among them.

"I see Your Majesty, Concubine Ning and Concubine Duan, and His Royal Highness King Nankang." Cui Yi came up and knelt while holding the cup.Feng Zihuan quickly waved his hand: "What is Cui Xiang doing? You don't need to kneel even if the civil and military courts of the whole dynasty kneel. What's more, today is just the royal family having fun with the family. There are not so many etiquettes. Sit down and talk."

Feng Zihuan was going to say some words of thanks to Cui Yi. If you hadn’t recommended Xuanji to me at this time last year, many things would not have gone so smoothly. Unexpectedly, Cui Yi sat down and stared directly at the person behind Feng Zizhang. Xie Yan looked.Seeing this, Xie Yan naturally saluted politely, "My niece has met my aunt." Cui Yi looked at her and just smiled, and from the corner of her eye, she saw Feng Zizhang blushing, and just as she was about to talk to Feng Zizhang, she slyly asked the emperor first. Pleading guilty, Feng Zihuan said: "It's a holiday today, so there's no need to stick to etiquette. Cui Xiang can say whatever he wants." Cui Yi immediately turned to ask Feng Zizhang Xieyan how he was doing as an internal historian at the residence.

Feng Zizhang has never set up an internal history, and there are not many chores in the palace, and most of them are left to Huiyu.Although it is possible to hand over the matter to Xie Yan now, Huiyu will not be exhausted to death, but speaking of it, she doesn't know how the internal history turned out to be. Is the evaluation good?I can't evaluate it.Don't brag, it seems to be contrary to emotion; brag, and I'm afraid that Cui Yi will find out the wrong thing on the spot, and I will be more embarrassing.

Fortunately, Cui Yi gave a step down on the spot, and asked specifically how the finances were handled, how the people in the house were disciplined, whether His Highness would seal off the country if he didn't let Neishi control Nankang's affairs... She really breathed a sigh of relief, one by one answer.While approving and praising, Cui Yi suggested that this is okay.

Sitting opposite Feng Zizhang and Cui Yi, Duan Qichen and Zhu Xianwan didn't even notice what they were talking about.The reason is simple. This year's weather is warmer, and there are so many flying insects by the water in March.Even though it was incense and fan blowing, the female officials had already rushed a lot for them, Duan Qichen still felt that there was too much and kept rushing. "What are you doing? Got bitten again?" Zhu Xianwan wanted to laugh seeing her flustered by mosquitoes. "Mosquito! Mosquito!" Duan Qichen whipped around with a handkerchief, whistling, but it didn't work, and asked Zhu Xianwan, "Have you been bitten?"

"No, I prepared it when I came out today, and I only brought four sachets! But—" Pa, she slapped her arm again, "Why do I still have it!"

Zhu Xianwan just smiled, Feng Zihuan said: "You are scaring yourself, you think there are no mosquitoes, don't be afraid, so naturally you don't feel it. The surrounding incense is like this, you see there is not one around me. "

Duan Qichen retorted: "That's His Majesty's own Son of Heaven!"

"It's a joke, Tianziqi can also prevent mosquitoes?"

Zhu Xianwan took the opportunity to chase after him and said: "I don't want to recruit either. I must be the weakest person here, so the mosquitoes are attracted because you eat too much cow and goat cheese on weekdays, and the taste is strong. I don't realize it. It’s sure to be doubly sweet!”

This remark made Duan Qichen so angry that he stopped slapping the mosquitoes with a handkerchief, and instead slapped Zhu Xianwan: "You're so stinky! Just talk nonsense!" The beating was not serious, but Zhu Xianwan became addicted, ouch, ouch, yelling endlessly .Duan Qichen became even angrier when he saw this, and cursed: "I'm using a handkerchief, not a whip, why are you arguing!" In fact, she was only attracted by Zhu Xianwan's laughter, and joined this play, causing Zhu Xianwan to scream coquettishly. Get up: "Oh, sister, please forgive me! Don't dare again! Please forgive me!"

After Duan Qichen had had enough trouble, he realized that he was distracted just now, and he didn't notice the mosquito bites. He felt annoyed and funny; when he was about to complain to Feng Zihuan, Zhu Xianwan suggested that they go for a walk by the river, "so that my sister won't be bitten like this." Xiang Khan, attracted the mosquitoes again, and went around, so that those mosquitoes didn't know where my sister was, so they couldn't find her." Duan Qichen wanted to beat him again, Feng Zihuan hurriedly said, go, hurry up, This plan is very clever.

After the two left, Cui Yi was still chatting earnestly with Feng Zizhang, while Feng Zihuan looked at the crowd by the water in the distance.I saw Cui Xuanji standing on the bank, and his two daughters playing in the shallow water, splashing water with everyone for fun.Cui Xuanji turned her back to her, and she looked at that figure, with a tall and straight back, a slender waist, wearing a gender-neutral but still unable to conceal her heroic and gentle official uniform, and the jade pendant that I bestowed on her a while ago was hanging on her belt On the table, tassels are flying in the wind; her left hand is placed on the handle of the knife, and her right hand is clenched into a fist on her lower back, as if she is pinching something.

Feng Zihuan thought of her fingers, pale and slender, although they had calluses from martial arts training, they still did not lose their beauty.Some people's hands are as white as light onion, which is lovely white; some people's hands are like gelatinous fat, as fragile as if they will melt when touched; some people's hands are dark and rough, which have been weathered for a long time, which makes people feel refreshed. Pity; Cui Xuanji's hands are very jade-like, not as soft as scallion, nor as fragile as gelatinous, they are both firm and soft, in line with her temperament: she is a good woman, but not a weak woman.

Feng Xi seemed to be giving her something, but Feng Zihuan couldn't see clearly from afar, only Cui Xuanji looked at it and handed it back to Feng Xi.

what is that?

Can you bring it back and show me?

It so happened that at this time she saw Cui Xuanji go aside, her sight was also blocked by the crowd, Feng Zizhang and Cui Yi who were talking.Only then did her attention return to reality, and she heard these three people discussing that Xie Yan should discipline and guide the guards in Feng Zizhang's palace. Feng Zizhang insisted that his guards should not be too powerful, Cui Yi advised her to Less but better.Feng Zihuan thought to himself, this kid is still too careful.

"I think what Cui Xiang said is reasonable, Zizhang, don't give in. Don't waste Xie Yan's ability, right? Xie Yan."

"The minister is here."

"I heard that both you and Xuan Ji's bow skills were taught by General Longxiang, Jiang Yuan?" She intentionally mentioned Jiang Yuan's title to please Cui Yi, but Cui Yi only smiled and did not express anything. , she also felt helpless.After the death of Jiang Yuan, the former emperor once asked Cui Yi if he wanted to find a child from the offshoot of the Cui family to adopt to her. The emperor could order this child to be Jiang Yuan's heir. Yuan would not agree with this approach. If you are worried about the waste of the title, it is better to reward the defenders with all the rules.The first emperor had no choice but to follow her wishes.

"Yes." Xie Yan replied. "Then," Feng Zihuan glanced at Cui Yi again, Cui Yi seemed to understand, and smiled accomplice, "I have seen Xuan Ji's ability, how are you better than her?"

"I'm not as good as her." Xie Yan replied immediately without any hesitation.Although Feng Zihuan really wanted to ask what was wrong, but he was the emperor after all, so it was not good, so he changed his mouth and said: "Oh? Why?"

"I grew up with Cui Xuanji since I was a child. She is quiet, and I am lively. She is persistent, and I am open. Therefore, in terms of archery, I am born by nature, and I can't compare with him."

Feng Zihuan nodded, "However, you can immediately admit your shortcomings, which is already better than many people. I also heard that when you were young, you were very naughty..."

Xie Yan didn't know that he was waiting for her here, but Feng Zihuan actually pulled Cui Yi together and started talking about her childhood.Cui Yi knew that she had too many glorious deeds. After chatting for a long time, even after changing a cup of tea, Cui Yi had already labeled her as the number one naughty and narrow-minded in Jiankang.Even Feng Zizhang couldn't help laughing, that's all, she sacrificed herself today to entertain everyone!

Cui Xuanji didn't hear the laughter, and didn't care about the pointing and pointing from some of the descendants of the aristocratic clan behind him, he just focused on looking for flowers by the water.Just now Feng Xi actually caught a small fish from the water and gave it to her. She smiled and asked so many people by the water, how could there be fish?Feng Xi said that it rushed into my hand suddenly, and Cui Xuanji said: "It's fate. The fish was surprised and fell into your hands. Good luck." Feng Xi took the fish and released it, and even took the initiative to release it far away.Cui Xuanji looked at her, but suddenly thought, why not pick flowers and weave a wreath?She can't weave anything else, but she can make garlands.

When she was a child, her mother still laughed at her, dancing with knives and guns was fine, but how could she be so stupid to weave a wreath?

Walking around by the water, picking one here and another there, there were not many flowers, so she didn't dare to pick them all, and she chose the color carefully.Make a wreath, small, not fancy or complicated, and then, then—she thought as she worked—

Then give it to Feng Zihuan.But how to give it to her?The fingers stopped suddenly.

Make it up first, and think about it later.

Or don't give it to her forever, and it's fine to keep it for yourself; if you keep it for yourself, it will never change, it won't get better or worse, it won't...

At this time, Feng Zihuan came to give blessings to everyone, so she had no choice but to kneel with them.Feng Zihuan was in a good mood and ordered everyone to get up.Water droplets fell on her body, and everyone exclaimed slightly, but she was the only one who was very quiet.In fact, it stands to reason that she can get in touch with Feng Zihuan almost every day, and the blessings she receives are far more than the blessings these people receive from the emperor at this moment; but when those few drops of water fell on her forehead and shoulders, she still felt Very happy, even a little bit like crying.

"Xuan Ji, what are you doing?" The crowd dispersed, Feng Zihuan walked towards her, and she realized it.

"It's nothing. It's just a momentary distraction."

"What are you holding in your hand, eh? I saw you folding something just now, let me have a look?"

She had no choice but to stretch out her hand and hand the wreath to Feng Zihuan.

"It's so beautiful, did you make it up?" She nodded, "I didn't expect it to be so ingenious."

she laughed. "I can only make up this, and my mother laughed at me when I was young."

"Oh, Mrs. Yuzhang is too strict, I don't know how to do it. So beautiful," Feng Zihuan held the wreath to the sunlight, making every petal more beautiful, "How about giving it to me?"

When Feng Zihuan asked this question, he was smiling, and there was no one else around, Cui Xuanji was still so nervous that his heart beat into his throat.In fact, what an ordinary thing, she obviously can say anything, but she is afraid of telling the truth.How much I hope that I will be sincerely exposed, but I am afraid that I will be truly exposed.Why don't you dare to give out even a small gift?

But if you don't try everything, you will probably never know what is behind that door.

"This is for His Majesty."

Feng Zihuan was stunned for a moment, Cui Xuanji almost felt that he had difficulty breathing, but in an instant, Feng Zihuan's smile did not diminish, but became even brighter.

"Really?"

"real."

"Then I won't be polite." Feng Zihuan held the wreath in his hand, almost couldn't put it down, and after playing with it for a long time, he turned his head and said to Cui Xuanji, "Thank you."

On the other side of the water's edge, looking at them from a distance are Zhu Xianwan and Duan Qichen.The two were walking side by side on the shore, and Zhu Xianwan taught Duan Qichen what flowers were on the shore while walking.Duan Qichen didn't know the southern vegetation at all, but he was quite interested. At first, he picked two flowers and smelled them, but Zhu Xianwan stopped her.

"What are you smelling?"

"I recently got a book, which talks about how to make incense. It's very interesting. I also want to try it myself. Wouldn't it be great if I could preserve the smell I like for a long time through some means? These flowers It can be used to make incense in the future."

Zhu Xianwan smiled and said, "Don't you think most flowers smell the same?"

"You also know that it's just 'almost', so it can be seen that there are subtle differences."

Zhu Xianwan looked at her serious expression, her flamboyant facial features became quiet at this moment, unexpectedly there was a kind of charm.

However, after watching for a while, Zhu Xianwan opened her mouth and said: "Dog nose."

"Why can't you say something nice?"

"No, I'm used to it, I can't hold back now."

"Well, you were like this before co-authoring..."

The two were laughing, and Zhu Xianwan saw Feng Zihuan's smiling face. "What are you looking at?" Duan Qichen asked, following his gaze, what he saw was the last glimpse of Feng Zihuan's smiling face, and Cui Xuanji's slightly hunched back. "Your Majesty is smiling very happily." She said, Zhu Xianwan nodded without changing her gaze, "Then you..."

"What are you trying to persuade me? Be careful?"

"Face each other day and night, it is inevitable that love will develop over time. Besides, as long as His Majesty thinks about it. Of course, the only question, I guess, is whether Your Majesty wants to."

"You put it this way—" Zhu Xianwan turned around and stopped looking at it, "Isn't it because I understand that the Zhu family's honor and disgrace are all related to my dead sister? It's useless to tell me. I Nothing can stop it."

Seeing Zhu Xianwan's sad expression, Duan Qichen couldn't bear it: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I shouldn't have said such a thing. Useless words, why say it, blame me, blame me, don't be sad,"

"I'm not sad, I don't blame you." Zhu Xianwan turned around and took her hands, and said to her seriously face to face: "Obviously it's because of you that I am happy."

She didn't expect Duan Qichen to be stunned after hearing this, and she was also a little surprised, but she still calmed down and dragged Duan Qichen to continue looking at the flowers.How wonderful it is to spend, but it's a pity that it happens once a year; fortunately, it happens once a year.
