In the large open space in front of the grass hut, a few sparse plum trees are planted. Mei Ziyan sat on the bluestone slab on the side and watched the dumb slave take the flower hoe and turn the ground to plant ink plums.

"Dumb slave, it's a pity that you can't see plum blossoms bloom during the New Year. We planted too late. ”

The mute slave looked back at her and smiled reassuringly, gesturing, "Don't we have next year?"

Next year? Mei Ziyan rubbed her cold and red nose, will she still be here this time next year? The dumb slave put down her hoe, took off her outer robe, folded it in two, and walked under the tree and said to Mei Ziyan:

"Get up. ”

Mei Ziyan was stunned for a moment, stood up, put his clothes on the slate where she had sit, and then pulled her to sit down again.

"I'm sweating hot. He said, then turned and went back to the plum tree.

There is still his residual warmth on his clothes, which is warm, isolating the coldness of the bluestone slab.

After planting the last tree and tying the bamboo branches to straighten the plum tree, a cup of steaming water was handed to him. He took it, Mei Ziyan reached out and straightened his shirt, and said with a smile:

"Dumb slave, you don't have to be so good to your aunt, I'm older than you, and I should be the one who takes care of you. ”

Obviously it was a very warm scene, the dumb slave only felt as depressed as swallowing a frog at this time, he looked like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, but ...... Just as he was holding the water cup and being infinitely entangled, Mei Ziyan said again:

"Our dumb slave is so gentle and careful, my aunt must find you a good wife in the future, so that other women will not bully you. ”

He looked at her for a moment, trying to see a playful or mischievous smile in her eyes, but no, all he saw was her earnest look.

Dengshi felt a little chill in his heart.

Mei Ziyan handed the robe to him, he took her hand, looked at her firmly, and gestured:

"I don't want others, I ......"

"As long as you" didn't have time to say the three words, her eyes caught a glimpse of Dongming who walked into the grass house, and she saluted Mei Ziyan under the tree, "Doctor Mei." ”

Mei Ziyan sat down with her in the grass hut, and said straight to the point: "Dongming, I know all about your entanglement with the Dongfang family. ”

Dongming's face changed slightly, but he was still calm, "So, the prince, they also know?"

"I asked Suzaku to intercept the information that Yiyin Hall sold to Tingfeng Lou, don't worry, they don't know for the time being. But I want to ask you a question. ”

"Doctor May, please. ”

"The matter of Xishan Grass Pavilion, have you ever thought about wanting Mu Cheng to die?"

Her long eyelashes trembled, and the finger bones that grabbed the teacup turned white, "There is a secret way in the grass pavilion, I know that Lord Suzaku told you, I never thought of wanting the son to die, but Dongfang Hengqing pressed too hard, if I don't say it, he will tell the prince my identity, I don't want to ......"

"Don't want to lose Mu Yu?"

She nodded, her eyes slightly red.

"If a conspiracy is revealed to the world, it will not be a conspiracy. Mei Ziyan looked at her, "I want to help you get out of the predicament, Dongming, are you willing to listen to my arrangement?"

————————————————————————————————

In front of the high platform of the silver willow of the hibiscus tent, there is only a sandalwood round table, two chairs, on the round table are placed with four-colored fruit points, tea is boiling on the exquisite small stove, and the tea smoke curls up.

When Dongfang Hengqing walked in, he saw a woman Yingying get up and turn around and smile at him, her voice was crisp and pleasant, like a mountain spring, and said:

"You're here, I thought Childe had forgotten about Ziyan. ”

She is very simple, she is wearing just an ordinary person's cotton dress, without any decoration, but she used a pen to draw a branch of ink plum on the skirt, which at first glance has the charm of ice and snow. The hair is loosely pulled up with hostas, revealing the skin on the neck, and the ink-colored hair makes the skin as fine as fat and pink.

The water is the eye waves, the mountains are the eyebrows, Dongfang Hengqing can't help but feel a flutter, Ren has seen countless beauties, but at this moment he only thought of one sentence:

No powder is applied and the color is like the morning glow reflecting the snow.

Only the hosta hairpin on his black hair that was as warm as green water and spring waves made him feel slightly dazzling.

He walked up to her and smiled warmly, "Dongfang Hengqing is fortunate to be remembered by Miss Mei, how dare not come?"

"Childe is so big, Zi Yan just wants to meet with Childe to catch up, why does Childe wrap up the entire Yinliu High Platform? She smiled sheepishly, a little shyly.

He sat down beside her, reached over the teacup to make tea for her, and gestured skillfully and gracefully. She couldn't help but think of watching Mu Cheng make tea every day when she was in Huzhou, her clear and handsome face, calm and elegant bearing, and the hand with white skin and slender bones that protruded slightly, which complemented the brown color, no matter how you look at it, it is an excellent scenery.

And Dongfang Hengqing's hand seems to have been deliberately repaired, the smooth nail surface is slightly pointed and round, and the white greasy is with fat powder.

She didn't like it.

Such a man, such a pair of hands.

At this time, Dongfang Hengqing smiled, he thought that her loss of consciousness was due to his demeanor and attainments in the tea ceremony.

"To drink phoenix single fir tea, you must smell the fragrance first. He handed her a small porcelain cup about a finger long, and she put it to her nose and sniffed it, and said with a smile:

"It's really fragrant, and there is a fresh smell of grass and trees. ”

In the Appreciation Pavilion on the second floor of the Furong Tent, Mu Yu said to Mu Cheng sullenly:

"Third brother, I repeat, this is the last time I come to the Pavilion to enjoy the pavilion, and I will ...... in the future"

"The one who is truly clean comes out of the mud without staining, not as you do with trying to avoid it. Didn't the fourth prince be famous in Tiandu as 'among the thousands of flowers, and not a single leaf touches his body'? You suddenly became well-behaved, and dismissed the concubines in the mansion because of that woman?" Mu Cheng asked coldly.

"Third brother, do you see that too?" he said with annoyance, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you for long." ”

Mu Cheng's face changed, he was originally haunted by the scene in Meiyuan a few days ago, and as soon as he was free, he thought of Mei Ziyan's slightly drunk appearance, and he began to reflect on whether he knew that his illness had alienated Shen Biyan in the past few years, and the two concubines in the mansion were also sent out of the house because of noise, and he began to be unbalanced both psychologically and physically. So he was irritated and pulled Mu Yu to the hibiscus tent, there are not many women who are more beautiful than her, but there are more women who are gentler than her and know how to meet men than her, maybe you can forget the scene of holding her in the carriage that day.

"She only saved you once, and you are in a hurry to make a promise?" he asked Mu Yu with the nameless fire in his heart.

"It's not because I'm sick this time. Mu Yu smiled embarrassedly and confessed to his cousin: "I've always liked her, but I just think she has someone in her heart and doesn't dare to say it." I was sick once, I saw some things clearly, and I also figured out some truths, third brother, don't worry, I am serious this time, and I will never give up. ”

Unexpectedly, Mu Cheng's face became even more ugly, his dark eyes were dark, and he said in a deep voice: "The matter of marriage can only be tried and not forced, I can see it very clearly, she will not have you in her heart, fourth brother, you might as well let go, so as not to hurt yourself......"

Mu Yuden was stunned, his eyes were incredibly surprised, sad, and angry.

"Third brother, are you ...... No, haven't you always liked Bi Li in your heart? If you like her, you should show it early, if you don't have any intention, you shouldn't not let go like now, dragging mud and water and misleading people for a lifetime!"

"Who said I liked her anymore?" I had never seen Mu Yu talk to him like this, Mu Cheng had a headache and stroked his forehead and denied.

Mu Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, the two little maids, Hongxue and Lucalyx, pushed the door and walked in, Hongxue smiled and said:

"The two of them have been waiting for a long time, Hongxue prepared good green tea for the prince and the fourth prince to taste, and the green calyx sister was very happy to hear that the prince was coming, and she was about to come to see the prince. Come, Sister Green Calyx quickly make tea for the prince. ”

The woman called "Green Calyx" has a graceful figure, sitting next to Mu Cheng, her eyes are like a pool of spring water, the green dress is only slightly thicker than the spring shirt, and the green bandeau wraps the delicate figure, revealing a large area of white skin.

As soon as Mu Cheng stretched out his hand to grab the green calyx, the soft feeling evoked a certain memory in him, he shook his head and didn't think about it, and drank the green tea in the cup with the teacup handed over by the green calyx.

"What does Shizi think of this tea?" Green Calyx smiled seductively, his fingers touching the placket of his shirt intentionally or unintentionally.

This tea has no taste.

His gaze glanced at the woman's fair and smooth breasts, but he remembered the beautiful arc of someone's black hair showing under his neck, and felt the green calyx's hand loosen his shirt, he didn't like the woman to approach so intimately, but ...... He sighed secretly in his heart, thinking about his motive for coming to the Hibiscus tent today, and let the green calyx tease. At this moment, he heard the two little maids waiting outside the door talking quietly:

"I heard that Prince Hengqing wrapped up the entire Yinliu High Platform today, I don't know which dignitary he wants to entertain?"

"Where! It's a woman, I've never seen the high-ranking Hengqing prince so careful and considerate to please any sister, carefully speaking, making tea for her, and teaching her to smell the fragrance......"

"I'm afraid it's a lady from some family, right?"

"It's not, the woman is dressed ordinarily, with only a hosta on her head, a plain dress on her body, and only a plum blossom painting, which sounds simple and simple, but if it doesn't sound shabby, several sisters are not very angry in their hearts!"

Mu Cheng's body stiffened, and he subconsciously pushed away Lu Cao's hand, glanced at Mu Yu coldly and said:

"You're still sitting so peacefully, and the person you want to be serious about is flirting with other men down there at the moment, why don't you go and have a good time?"

Mu Yu almost squirted out a cup of tea, "What, third brother, you say, Dongming is here?"

"Who said Dongming is here, you-"

The white light flashed, and the two brothers reacted at the same time, both of them looked at each other with their mouths open, Mu Yu was choked by the tea, coughed and said:

"Third brother, did you misunderstand something? What you said doesn't seem to be the same person as what I said......

Yes, it was indeed a misunderstanding.

As if the embarrassing scene just now had never happened, Mu Cheng continued to drink tea, but the tea, like the women around him, seemed to be lighter and weaker the more he drank, and the more he drank, the more tasteless he became. Mu Yu became interested and said with a smile: "I'll go and see who made our third brother so abnormal." ”

Mu Cheng simply pushed away the small few in front of him and stood up, with great heroism in breaking the cauldron and letting go, and said to Mu Yu:

"I don't need you to go, I'll go!"

Mei Ziyan, if you want to attract bees and butterflies, you can't find a place far away? What is it to float around in front of this world all day long?

Find a dark room to lock her up?

Throw her into the river like a dumpling to stuff the piranhas who want to eat Qu Yuan's body?

Or let Qing'er's uncles, brothers, aunts and sisters all appear together to scare this woman who is afraid of snakes to the top of the sulfur essence to death?

Our Persimmon Lord is now in a state of horror at the absurd idea that has jumped into his mind. He felt that he was abnormal, and when he touched his heart, either she re-poisoned her after curing his heart disease, or she secretly changed his heart to someone else, always beating uncontrollably when it was most unlikely, sometimes sour and suffocating, sometimes angry-

Like now.

Standing on the stairs of the Pavilion and looking down at the round table in front of the Silver Willow High Platform, he was furious.
