Chapter 223: Fifth Brother is Innocent
In September, the ginkgo biloba leaves are dyed yellow, and the autumn breeze is like a golden butterfly fluttering down.
Li Fei lightly stepped over the golden yellow all over the ground, and Princess Shouchun stood on the stone steps at the end of the fallen leaves to greet her.
After entering the inner hall and sitting as the guest of honor, Li Fei showed the small red lacquer box held by Ah Fang behind him, and said with a smile: "The prince picked up a piano score, saying that it was an engraved book during the Jianlong period of the previous dynasty. ”
Ah Fang put it up with both hands, the interval between the years of Jianlong in the previous dynasty is now three hundred years, and a piano sheet has been yellowed, the binding line is loose, and the cover is stained. Princess Shouchun carefully flipped through it, and after a while, she said: "Emperor Jianlong of the previous dynasty was rich in music, and he collected thousands of volumes of music scores during his reign, and later lost half of them, and this one is ......."
Princess Shouchun's mind was all on the score, and she turned a few more pages, her fingers beat intentionally or unintentionally, and said: "It's a song with grand implications, how many taels of silver did the seventh brother spend to get it?"
"One hundred and twenty taels. Li Fei said with a teacup.
Princess Shouchun still had doubts and said, "I'll let the horse take a second look." ”
Li Fei said with a smile: "The prince said that if it is genuine, this piano score will be given to the third sister, and the right will be used as a birthday gift for the third sister's birthday this year." "Princess Shouchun's birthday is the seventh day of September, and today is the fifth day of September.
Etiquette is still this kind of thing, they are the princes and princesses, they have their own people to undertake, what is rare is the heart, it is Zhao Yanheng's intention to find it back personally, how can the accounting be more true or false, Princess Shouchun sighed and said: "The little birthday of the sisters of the same generation, don't worry too much." The song was a good song, so I took it.
Li Fei went on the pole and said with a smile: "Then it is this year's birthday gift." ”
Princess Shouchun remembered it clearly, but she showed a trance and said, "Your birthday is also in September, it seems that there is no difference between you and me for a few days?"
Li Fei nodded and said, "It's September 9." ”
Princess Shouchun chuckled and said, "On the first birthday of entering the door, I have to think about it, what should I give you?"
Li Fei stood up and sat opposite Princess Shouchun, "My father's Lord of the Emperor's Halloween Festival began to pay attention to it in July, and now he has set a birthday gift, but he doesn't want to give weight to the princess's mansion." Why don't the princess's mansion let you go? This favor, this year's birthday of the prince, the third sister doesn't have to think about it. ”
Princess Shouchun froze her expression. It's not because Li Fei dared to open his mouth to let the princess's mansion want to, but that the Xiangwang Mansion knew that the birthday gift she prepared was a painting. According to the sixth chapter of the Book of Filial Piety, the filial piety of the common people depicts a scene in which the common people are frugal and support their fathers in the form of a series of long scrolls. That serial scroll painting was worked out by her and the horse for a long time, and a small part of the scroll was still unfinished, and the news of Xiangwangfu was really well-informed.
"I really wanted to go together. Princess Shouchun didn't answer, and asked rhetorically: "What kind of painting has the seventh brother prepared, if it is more interesting than the princess's mansion, I will find another birthday gift." "It's not impossible for both governments to send paintings, it's just that he sends that, I send this, and the brothers and sisters negotiate in private to stagger and send different kinds, which seems better.
Li Fei spread his hands and said: "I just found a lovely painter, and he received the palace, and he took his apprentice to paint behind closed doors, and I don't know what the painting looks like." I just watched that the prince also entered the house, in addition to entering the palace in the past few days, he has been nesting there, eating and drinking was sent in by Dong Rang, and he was resting in the studio. ”
"Oh, so attentive ......" Princess Shouchun pinched the lid of the tea and thought for a while, and said, "I still have time here, I'll inlay my painting into a screen." "Then the princess's mansion is not to send paintings, but to send screen furniture.
Li Fei smiled and said, "It's hard to be the third sister." ”
"It's nothing!" Princess Shouchun said casually, and said with a deep meaning: "The family is flesh and blood, and things should be discussed." ”
Li Fei smiled and nodded: "Sister is very right. ”
Eating refreshments, the two of them talked about other topics, the autumn is high and cool, it is a good time to stop and sit in the love wood maple forest at night. Princess Shouchun has a big village in Xishan, and it is best to see the red maple. Since her descent, every autumn, she and the horses have invited the grandmothers, girls, and middle-aged children in the capital to go to Bezhuang to enjoy the autumn.
No matter how good-looking the red maple is, it is not as good-looking as the young girl in the boudoir, nor is it as good-looking as the handsome children from noble families. Therefore, such gatherings have always been not to enjoy the scenery, but to enjoy the people.
"If you have time, go and have a good time, and stay for three or five days. Princess Shouchun invited Li Fei.
Xiangwangfu has no worries about marriage, but Li Fei's half-siblings, the eldest sister has to take care of one or two. Li Fei has a relatively high rank among her parents' relatives, and she can also show the children of her relatives. For the princess and princess, it is a way to show appeal, Li Fei said: "I must go......"
"His Royal Highness King Wei has arrived!"
King Wei can freely enter and exit Princess Shouchun's mansion, and wherever others go, let them know in advance.
Immediately King Wei entered, he wore a blue lotus-colored robe, his figure was tall and slender, his face was handsome and pure, he also held a bouquet of flowers in his hand, his steps were brisk, and his expression was happy.
Li Fei stood up, nodded to King Wei, and said, "Fifth brother is fine." ”
King Wei looked at Li Fei, he rarely spoke, just smiled shyly in return, and according to his original gaze, a bouquet of two double-petaled hibiscus flowers, a purple pink peony flower and some orange-red roses in his hand raised to Princess Shouchun, and then happily pulled out a double-petaled hibiscus flower to save on the princess's bun.
Princess Shouchun wore a full head on her hair bun, shining with golden light, and at this time, while touching the hairpin that covered her sideburns, she said to Li Fei: "It's the flower planted by the fifth brother, and it's the flower that blooms." ”
King Wei stopped his movements, turned his head and nodded heavily at Li Fei, emphasizing that these flowers were all planted by him. In fact, the flower branches are transplanted by the gardener, and the most bitter and dirty work of planting flowers and burying fertilizer has been done, and there are also people who have encountered insect pests or something in the process of growing flower branches.
Because King Wei would go to see those flowers every day, those flowers became what he planted.
Looking at the flowers he planted, King Wei was as happy as a child, and he sent such a beautiful flower to his sister to wear.
Two double-petaled hibiscus flowers were worn on the head of Princess Shouchun, King Wei pinched a purple pink peony flower in his right hand to see if his sister was beautiful enough, and then saw Li Fei, Li Fei is used to being plain and clean, and the hairpin pendant on the bun only plays the role of fixing the bun is enough, and the hair ornament is small and few, compared with the luxurious decoration of Princess Shouchun, it is simple.
King Wei naturally walked over, and as soon as he raised his hand, it was the action of saving flowers for Li Fei.
Li Fei stood a little embarrassed, and looked at Princess Shouchun inquiringly. The fun of a man to save flowers for a woman is like the joy of drawing eyebrows, can she let King Wei save flowers?
Princess Shouchun smiled helplessly, she was obviously her younger sister, she had lived next to King Wei for many years, and she had raised a trace of mother-son affection, and said dotingly: "It's okay, the fifth brother is innocent!"
Li Fei squatted down slightly and expressed his respect. Princess Shouchun had already walked to the side with the attendant who followed King Wei, and spoke in a low voice: "Did the fifth brother send flowers to the fifth sister-in-law?"
The chamberlain bent over and pressed his head, and spoke so lightly that Li Fei couldn't hear it at all: "The flowers picked by the prince himself were sent to the princess first." However, the princess fell asleep while looking at the book, so the princess did not bother, and took the flowers to the princess's mansion. ”
Princess Shouchun looked at the sky, it was three o'clock now, and the morning would be too fast to noon, at this time Sun Yuyan would also be sleepy when she read? However, Sun Yuyan was almost seven months pregnant, and Princess Shouchun had never conceived a child, so she didn't know how hard it was for a pregnant woman, so she hid the unhappiness that floated in her heart.
King Wei sent the peony flower out, and he still held a handful of orange-red dogle flowers in his left hand, with stems and leaves, and his eyes were very casually on Ah Fang, who was standing behind Li Fei.
Ah Fang was wearing an emerald green Luo shirt, ginger armor, combing a double bun, a honey-like complexion, round almond eyes, a somewhat flat nose, and a small mouth.
King Wei grew taller, bent down slightly, tilted his head to look at people, and saw Ah Fang's appearance clearly, as if he had seen it somewhere, as if it was a little familiar, King Wei's brain was still chaotic, and the person had already walked towards Ah Fang, and a handful of dill flowers in his hand wrapped around Ah Fang's bun.
Without a little too much emotion, just decorate this simple bun with green leaves and flowers, King Wei's demeanor is calm and innocent.
The precious spices, the kind of soaked and soaked, a faint water agarwood emanated from King Wei's body, Ah Fang felt King Wei fiddling on top of her head, and felt the eyes of the princess and princess to look over, and she finally raised her head with sincere fear.
That glance relatively.
After Wei Wang smiled innocently, the chaos in his mind split, and he changed his face at the same time, took a step back, took a closer look at Ah Fang, and ran away. Facing the door, he opened his long legs as if someone was chasing him, and King Wei fled quickly.
"What's wrong? Fifth brother!"
Princess Shouchun hurriedly asked too late, King Wei had already run out of the door, Princess Shouchun didn't have time to say hello to Li Fei with her skirt, and called the fifth brother to chase him out.
Li Fei and Ah Fang couldn't find the north in the house at all, and Li Fei saw that Ah Fang didn't overstep, so he still asked, "What's wrong?"
A handful of roses had not yet been wound and hung on Ah Fang's face, Ah Fang glanced at the small orange-red flowers on the green branches, and said, "The slave doesn't know." ”
Li Fei sat down calmly and waited quietly for Princess Shouchun to come back. I continued to talk about the maple leaf in Xishan just now, but I still said goodbye and left, and I will talk about it when Princess Shouchun comes back.
After waiting for more than half an hour, Princess Shouchun sent the maid to speak twice, the first time to let Li Fei sit for a while, and the second time to keep Li Fei for lunch. At noon, Princess Shouchun walked back with a smile on her hibiscus, glanced at Ah Fang deliberately, and said to Li Fei: "I've kept you waiting." ”
