When the soft sedan chair she was sitting on was at the door of the peony platform, Shilan, who had been waiting at the door and was looking forward to it, ran to Erfu like a milk swallow returning to the nest, and greeted warmly: "Master, you can count it!"

She lay quietly for a while, and when Shilan went to see Zhao Dezhu and came back, she hurriedly ordered: "Let's get a cup of strong tea." ”

"Isn't it beautiful!" Erph really didn't pay much attention to the scenery of the peony platform just now, and when she heard Shilan say this, she was a little curious, and followed the direction of Shilan's finger, and looked back in the direction of her own child with a little carelessness.

Because she had heard the folk proverb about when it was more suitable to watch peony flowers as early as in modern times, "Gu Yu three dynasties look at peonies", although sometimes not particularly accurate, but it also indicates the blooming time of the national peony species, and now it is obviously past the best period for peony flowers to bloom, and because of this, she has long been ready to meet the remnants of flowers and willows.

But now...... Shilan turned out to be this dazzling virtue of Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, how could she not be curious.

As Erf slowly turned around, her eyes gradually drew attention to the unnoticed beauty behind her.

In front of the peony stage.

In a field of flowers that is not particularly large, but it is also spectacular, peony flowers of different colors of thick green and light green, like guards lined up in a neat phalanx, proudly spread all over every corner, lush, and even covered the soil to the slightest.

The lush flowers, although there is a lack of purple and red decorations, are not as gorgeous and dazzling as when they are in bloom, but they are extremely light and elegant, especially the faint fragrance of plants and trees in the air, which is just right to combine with the fragrance of the earth, so that Erfu who is not far away has a sense of tranquility and distancing, which is very much to reduce the heat and instantly soothe the boredom in Erfu's heart.

"It's really good, I was worried that this place has passed the flowering period, and there is no gardener to take care of it for a long time, but I didn't expect the gardener to be able to prune this withered peony bush so exquisitely, if it is not far away to set up a swing in the shade of a tree, it will be more in line with my preference!" Erf stood on the steps in front of the peony platform, smiling and recalling the beauty in his heart.

Born in the eighties, she didn't have many toys and video games to play with as a child, there were few ways for children to be entertained, and a few swings and slides in the park were the best of her childhood, even when she went to college and the rise of various new large playgrounds and wilder safari parks, she still misses the feeling of visiting the park as a child, and as she gets older, she misses the most innocent and innocent time.

That's what she thought, after all, she was already the mother of several children, and the swing or something was too far away.

Erph recalled those fond memories of her childhood, and thought that she would never have the opportunity to see her parents again, and the interest that had been brought up with great difficulty was instantly extinguished like a small flame that had been poured over several basins of cold water, and she sighed a little abruptly and walked towards the peony platform.

Peony Terrace, its most important main building is a viewing hall that was later changed by Emperor Qianlong into Ji Entang.

But now even the fourth master has not ascended the throne, the viewing hall in front of him is just a three-room bright hall, there is no luxurious golden glazed tiles, there is no plaque mentioned by the first person in the barrage, Emperor Qianlong, all the beams and pillars are not precious Nanmu.

The Ming Hall in front of you is just an ordinary Ming Hall.

If you have to pick out one feature, it is the green bamboo, purple bamboo, Xiangfei bamboo and other patches decorated everywhere.

Erfu walked into this Ming Hall, stepping on the bamboo floor, all eyes are exquisite bamboo carved furniture and furnishings, even the candlesticks for lighting are carved by Nanzhu in various styles, not to mention the common bamboo tables, bamboo chairs and bamboo couches, in addition, the light gauze curtains used for decoration are also selected in the elegant color of jade and emerald color, and there is really a feeling of returning to the basics.

However, this is the Ming Hall, and aside from its use for entertaining guests, it is just a place to enjoy the scenery.

Erfu's residence on the side of Peony Terrace is in the rear building complex that is separated from this Ming Hall with green pines.

Erfu, who would not have been vassal, just looked at it in the Ming Hall, and had already walked from the back door of the Ming Hall to the building on the back side, she was more concerned about her residence in the Old Summer Palace, after all, this place was different from the Changchun Immortal Pavilion where she had lived, every grass, tree, brick and tile was fresh, which also meant that she didn't know more, and she was really worried that there was not even a suitable place for her to live, although this possibility was very small.

Passing through several ancient pines that shaded the clouds and the sun, she finally saw the small courtyard behind the Peony Terrace Hall.

This is an unregulated small courtyard, there is a main room, there is a wing room, there is no back cover room, the wing rooms on both sides are also asymmetrical, and on the left side of the main room, there is a small room that I don't know what to do, which is lower than the main room, and the height of the wing room is almost the same, and it doesn't seem to be a small kitchen that can make a fire.

However, Erf casually glanced at the strange little room, and stepped into the main room.

As the hostess of the Fourth Master's Mansion, this is her residence.

The small three-room room is narrower than her residence in the fourth master's mansion, but the room is high and wide, with green pine shade in front and cypress in the back, which is more refreshing, and the furnishings in the room are more simple, which makes Erfu, who has been sweating from the front, like this place at once.

In the room, Qinglan was leading the palace maid to place the luggage brought from Kyori to the appropriate position one by one.

Erfu stood at the door of the room, looked at the inner room that had been hung with bead curtains, and ordered with a smile: "Put out some of the commonly used ones first, and the others, just wait for two days to be free and then slowly clean up. ”

With that, she went into the inner room to wash.

The heat is unbearable, that is, she is wearing a light and breathable Hangzhou silk, not moving an inch, and there is Bingjian beside her to cool down, but all the way from the city to the Old Summer Palace, she still tosses a thin sweat, not to mention these palace maids, I am afraid that even the underwear inside will be soaked, let them go back to clean up earlier, it will also save the discomfort, the things contained in these cages are not something to be used urgently, and when the weather is cooler, it will be slowly cleaned up.

With Erfu's command, these palace maids who were busy were all happy.

Qinglan led the palace maids to curtsy to Erfu, and placed the ornaments that had been moved out one by one, and then carried the other cages that had not yet been sorted out and left the main room.

And Erf had already moved quickly, as if she had pressed the accelerator button, and jumped into the bathtub to take a bath.

This time, she specially led the family members of the house to wait at the city gate before the city gate was opened, which still has some benefits.

Thinking about those years, it was all her eating ashes behind the emperor's car, she was so tired and dizzy, and before she had time to rest for a while, she had to go to Changchun Garden with a smile to serve Concubine De, otherwise an unfilial hat would be buckled, and it would be sad.

But this year is different.

When she was already washing and bathing in the room, the honor guard of the holy driver and the accompanying concubines were still on the way, she could have changed into dry clothes safely, ate a few snacks to pad her stomach, and then slowly and leisurely rushed to Changchun Garden, who let her come out early, for such a comfortable time in front of her, it is really not worth mentioning to get up early and wait for these little things.

Just when Erfu was happily taking a bath and sipping tea and snacks comfortably, the Wulanala clan and the others, who had already settled in the Old Summer Palace first, were the same.

After all, no one wants to sweat and be tired to run to Concubine De Niangniang to fulfill her filial piety and brush up on her sense of existence.

After a stick of incense, Erfu, who has not yet soaked in the fun, has already begun to be served by Shilan and others to change clothes and makeup, wearing an elegant flag outfit of azure embroidered orchids and plants, with two crystal clear jade hairpins, wearing a pair of yang green jade earrings carved into the shape of a gourd on the earlobe, no powder on the face, only some pearl powder paste to brighten the complexion, the nails are plain like jade, not dyed with Kodan, revealing that refreshing energy.

As soon as she was ready, Tong Jia's family, Wulanala clan, and Li Hezhu Li Fangfujin came to Peony Terrace together.

These three side Fujin Bilfu came to the Old Summer Palace first, and they didn't have the good mood of Erfu's sightseeing, so they returned to their respective residences to simply pack up a piece, and after some food, they hurried over to the Peony Terrace to get together.

Who let the saint drive to Changchun Garden, and need Erfu, the concubine, to lead them into Changchun Garden.

Besides, with the strength of the fourth master's eccentric eyes, he will definitely arrange for the eunuch to come to the Peony Terrace to report to Erfu first, and wait until the letter is passed to Erfu, maybe there will be the stewards of the Old Summer Palace who will spread the news everywhere, rather than hurrying slowly for fear of missing the time to say goodbye to Concubine De, it is better to come over early, so that there is no need to be too anxious on the road, and to avoid their carefully painted makeup being wet with sweat and smudged into a palette.

The minds of these three people are almost the same, the time they go out is about the same, and the residence is about far away from Erfu's residence, so naturally they met a piece on the road, and they came over to ask Erfu for peace.

Sitting in front of the dressing table, Erfu, who was still looking at her jade face, frowned unconsciously when she heard the letter.

In fact, she really doesn't like this feeling, as a concubine, it seems to be high, but there is always a feeling of being targeted by all rivals, or it should be said that she is not used to the appearance of a third party and a fourth person in the life of a husband and wife, anyway, I don't know what the other concubines think, but in her opinion, the relatives in the fourth master's mansion don't like themselves, fortunately, Erfu is a soft-faced little bun, otherwise I don't know how many things will be born......

Erfu took a deep breath, suppressed the complex emotions such as sourness and hidden worries in his heart, tried to show a smile, and walked towards the Guanjing Ming Hall located not far in front, that is, the Peony Tai Ming Hall with the inscription plaque of the fourth master hanging under the corridor.

At this moment, the doors and windows of the Ming Hall were wide open, like a relatively spacious pavilion.

Erfu looked at the three members of the Ulanala clan waiting in the Ming Hall through the window, slowed down, and greeted with a smile: "I didn't expect you to be ready so soon, but it's me, the one who does Fujin, who seems a little lazy!"

As her words fell, she also walked to the center of the Ming Hall.

Erfu slowly stood still, the three girls got up together to salute, she nodded with satisfaction, raised her hand to exempt the three daughters from the salute, and walked to the bamboo carved couch facing the main entrance of the Ming Hall and sat down, and said softly: "You can also sit." ”

"Xie Fujin. The Ulanala clan sat down first with a slightly gloomy face.

In fact, her face was not very good just now, because she had not been able to find the slightest trace of her here.

This peony platform used to be her exclusive residence in the Old Summer Palace.

In fact, it is not that she is unwilling to live in the clean and beautiful Taohuawu, nor that she likes the spacious atmosphere of the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, but she thinks that the peony is a symbol of the wife of the main house, so she will give up other more comfortable residences and choose this relatively narrow residence.

Because of this, the Ulanala clan once specially repaired the peony platform with private money.

In the past, the peony platform was full of delicacy and luxury, and the furnishings were also very exquisite, most of them were gilded materials, but now, this place in front of me is like a bamboo house-like viewing hall, look at the exquisite ornaments of bamboo carvings on the left and right, where can there be a trace of the flowers of the past......

At this moment, she had a thought in her heart.

That is, she wants to go back and replace the furniture inside and outside the Changchun Immortal Pavilion with a new set.

Her idea was very simple, since Erfu had destroyed her Peony Terrace, then she would destroy Erfu's Changchun Immortal Pavilion.

Erfu didn't know that she would sulk here for this little thing, and thought that the Ulanala clan was unwell, she asked with a little schadenfreude: "Is Wulanala Fujin not feeling well, I don't look good at you!"

"The concubine is fine, the concubine is a little sunbathed along the way, and it will be fine in a while. When the Ulanala clan heard this, the hatred in her heart was itching, but her face couldn't be more respectful, and she replied with her chin bowed, that humble and polite appearance was a little more gentle than any of the relatives in the house, if it weren't for the hands tightly clenched into fists in her sleeves that revealed her true feelings, it would have been perfect.

However, Erfu just asked casually, that is, the Wulanala clan is really sick, and she will not fail to ask for a doctor for the Wulanala clan, after all, it is the side Fujin in the house, and this big thing is always passable, and besides, she also has something to explain to the Wulanala clan to do, how can she watch the Wulanala clan get sick!
