Heiankyo love story

After two weeks like this, Jiang Xue also began to receive love letters with the characteristics of Ping An Jing.

The aristocratic man tied the letter paper on the flower branch and bribed the maid to pass it into the backyard. If Jiang Xue wanted to reply, he could ask the maid to take it out. After doing this a few times, the man could visit at night and go directly to the bedroom.

One more thing, this is a normal pursuit process, and what is abnormal is skipping the correspondence and directly climbing over the wall to enter the house.If a woman thinks it is acceptable, she may be honest with each other directly, and if she thinks it is not acceptable, she can also beat the man out.

However, in this weird place in Heianjing, the woman who beat the man out is likely to suffer bad reviews later.

Because aristocratic women usually do not see outsiders, and after the ceremony, they have to see male relatives at home through a curtain, so often only "talent names" are passed on to the outside world, and how they look like depends entirely on imagination.One of Heiankyo’s evaluation criteria for beautiful women is to have smooth and shiny long hair. The second criterion is to be able to dress well, because when a woman sits behind the curtain, only her long hair and the corners of her clothes may be exposed. At this time, Fengya (boring ) men can judge a woman's aesthetics by the color of her hair and clothes.

See it, what an abstract standard.

Therefore, there are also famous "beauties with both talent and color" who are not good in appearance. The man came to the door through the love letter to get enough favorability, met, lit a candle, and the whole person was surrounded, but he couldn't leave if he was surrounded, otherwise It will be badly reviewed, so I have to bite the bullet.

All in all, such ironic things happen in elegant Heian-kyo from time to time.

However, probably only Jiang Xue would find it funny, because other people’s words and deeds all show that they are used to it. One of the usual homework for noble girls is how to write waka and reply letters. If they don’t know how to reply waka, they will be ridiculed as "" people from the country".

Jiang Xue's impression is: No matter what you do, you should first come to a few waka from "Ancient and Modern Waka Collection", and those who don't agree with the waka will be laughed at.So what's so good about Waka that has no connotation and charm?How about Tang Poetry and Song Ci?In other games, she is the one who memorizes Tang Poetry, Song Ci, Four Books and Five Classics backwards in order to reflect her literary literacy. This is professionalism.It's a pity that Tang poetry is not complete in this era, let alone Song Ci.

In any case, Jiang Xue would never return such things as love letters. She just sent the maid to throw them away, and it was not too hidden. The letter is thrown away.

Of course, this will be criticized by the "elegant" Heianjing aristocratic men in their spare time, but because Jiang Xue, or "Fujiwara Yukihime" has double bonuses of "Great Noble" and "Star Clan" at this time, someone unexpectedly Jiang Xue's behavior was interpreted as "the princess of the Star Clan dedicated herself to her mission and has no intention of marriage for the time being", which immediately gave Jiang Xue another "noble" aura, but for some reason attracted a group of boring elegant people If you have nothing to do, send a letter in, as if you are competing for who can get the reply first.

The maids were very happy.

In this era, whether aristocratic women can receive love letters, how many love letters, and whether the man who wrote the letter is noble enough is still one of the criteria for everyone's evaluation. The noble and elegant charm of noble women and so on.

Fujihime was only ten years old, and he had been in close contact with Major General Tachibana Youya of the Zuo Jinwei Mansion before. He also has a high status, but he used to be in Datang, and now he is in Heianjing. People who are newcomers, have no roots, and have a lively mind start to move more, so this kind of love letter bombing is the first time in Fujihime. other courtyard.

Not to mention the maids, Fujihime herself finds it quite novel, and is very happy for her sister.

On this day, the maid took another thick stack of love letters to throw away. Fujihime found a letter in the middle that was very familiar in color and fragrance, and couldn't help saying: "Sister Xue, I see someone who writes letters every day. Did my sister read his letter?"

Jiang Xue replied with a smile: "I came all the way to Ping'an capital not to find a lover, but to accompany Fujihime."

Fujihime blushed slightly, and shook her head at the maid, who took the letter knowingly and threw it away.

After that, Fujihime never mentioned the topic of replying to the letter again.

Jiang Xue opened the panel and looked at Fujihime's favorability level, and it has successfully reached 55. Fujihime is used to having a "sister" by her side.The most direct expression is that in front of her, Fujihime showed more of her naive side, began to let go of her guard, and tried to rely on her.

Well, this favorability level is good, let’s maintain this level, and then you can use the names of the Fujiwara family and Hoshi no Clan to contact other people, such as creating a little chance encounter to meet Abe Masahiro, and when you get to know each other, you will have a reason to come and send greetings Go get to know Abe Seimei.

Speaking of invitations, it seems that there is another person who can visit.

The young and talented but not well-known onmyoji Asang Yewang.

Jiang Xue thought for a while, and instead of using the name "Fujiwara Xue Ji", she wrote a greeting card in the name of "Jiang Xue", with a pure flower tied on it to prove her identity, so that the onmyoji would not be the same Like her, she threw the letter without opening the envelope at all. The pure flower should be a unique thing in Ping'an capital. King Ma Cangye should know that it was sent by her when she saw it. The maid sent the letter to Ma Cang Ye Wang's house.

Unexpectedly, Ma Cang Yewang's reply speed did not conform to the slow rhythm of Heian Jing, and the reply letter was delivered the next day. The wording was very elegant and the content was very simple, which means welcome to visit.

Having said that, it would be bad if you don't go.

Jiang Xue thought for a while, took the reply letter and ran to find Fujihime, and said happily: "Fujihime, before I returned from Izumo to Heianjing, I was taken care of by Master Asakura on the way, I wanted to visit and thank you personally, but I was a little uncomfortable. If you dare to go out alone, can Fujiji come with me?"

Fujiki was taken aback for a moment, and quickly replied with a smile: "I am happy to accompany my sister."

"That would be really nice."

Jiang Xue bent down and gently hugged Fujihime for a few seconds, and then showed a bit distressed expression, as if talking to herself but deliberately kept the volume at the level that Fujihime deliberately heard.

"Well, according to Jing's rules, what clothes should I wear when I visit the house for the first time? Do I need to bring gifts? What should I say if I see his family members? I don't understand at all..."

Fujiji quickly put on a pretentious look, coughed lightly, and then said: "Sister Xue, leave all these to me!"

Jiang Xue was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then, I'll leave it all to Fujihime."

A warm current gently ironed through Fujihime's heart, and the lingering uneasiness quickly melted away. She straightened her back and said confidently, "No problem. Sister Xue, come and see the dress with me."

Jiang Xue stretched out her hand obediently, and let Fujiji lead her to the inner courtyard.

Although there are sacrifices between relatives who do not expect anything in return, there will also be natural requests for help.People who seek help from strangers will think about it, but blood relatives should trust each other.If you want to truly become a pair of sisters who trust and love each other, unilateral care is not enough.Especially for a girl like Fujihime who is already too precocious and intelligent, it is necessary to make her trust and depend on her, but also to let her realize that her existence is necessary for her.This embodiment of self-worth and the satisfaction of being trusted will further deepen the fetters of family affection.

Therefore, even if Jiang Xue knew the etiquette of Ping An Jing very well, "the elder sister who came across the sea from the Tang Dynasty" still had to seize the opportunity to ask the "sister" for help.

Fujihime lost her mother when she was young, and was not loved by her father. She can live independently, and she can also keenly discover ways to improve her reputation and status, which shows that she actually understands the ways of the world quite well. It is only because she is still young that people ignore her. In this regard, I always feel that "no matter how smart you are, you are still a child", so you subconsciously regard her sharpness as a child's cleverness.

Anyone who thinks like this is a real fool.

In this world, wise people know no age, but a fool will remain a fool when he grows old.

It is wisdom not to belittle someone because of their age, not to be prejudiced because of their gender, not to discriminate against someone because of their appearance, to judge a person's ability fairly and equally, and to assess his character and capacity.

Arrogance makes people stand still, prejudice makes people blind, and being able to overcome such disadvantages with reason is a great talent.

Fujihime has such a talent.

She deserves to be treated seriously. You can treat her like a child, but you can't treat her like a child.
