Tang Dynasty, Kangyuan 6th year, Gyeongju. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Gyeongju Dingyuan Houfu is huge in scale, the layout is strictly organized, it was once the residence of a vassal king in the previous dynasty, it was damaged by the war, and it has been turned over to Dingyuan Hou's hands several times, and it has been repaired several times to have today's scale.

In the deep part of the courtyard, there is a long and narrow lake, the lake water is clear, some lotus is planted in the shallow water at the end of the lake, only dry leaves are left in late autumn, and a piece of osmanthus and a piece of plum are planted not far from both sides of the lake. A high platform was built on the west side, and a pavilion courtyard was built, called Xuan Pavilion, not far to the left of Xuan Pavilion, several spacious and elegant buildings connected to the lake were built - Wishing Pavilion.

Today, there are many people in the wishing pavilion, and a few hearty laughter are faintly heard from time to time.

"Liu Yu, are we really going to Xuanxie?" a sweet and glutinous voice asked in a whisper, her name was Lin Su Niang, seventeen or eighteen years old, her eyebrows were picturesque, and she was dressed in a goose yellow dress wrapped around her bumpy and delicate figure, no matter what angle she looked at, she was so charming and moving.

Next to her stood the maid named Liu Yu, twenty-eight years old, with beautiful eyebrows and apricot eyes, a pretty nose and cherry lips, and she was also very beautiful, in terms of appearance, the two were indistinguishable, but her lowered head and the appearance of carefully pulling the corners of Liu Yu's sleeves made it difficult to distinguish who was the master and who was the servant.

"Of course I'm going!Miss Lin, how can I let go of such a good opportunity!" Liu Yu stepped forward and grabbed her arm, half-pulling and half-supporting her to walk forward quickly. "Let's go to the kitchen to make a decanting soup first, and then send it to the prince. The prince will be very happy to see you so caring and considerate. ”

"But Ah Zhu said that there are guests at the Pavilion, and it is inconvenient for us to go now. Lin Suniang bit her rosy lip.

"Oh, she doesn't understand anything, and we're not going to the Wishing Pavilion. Liu Yu complained, and then whispered to Lin Su Niang: "As long as the prince holds a banquet in the Wishing Pavilion, then he will definitely return to Xuanxie while the guests are playing cards." As long as we avoid the guests and go to Xuanxie, we will just send the sobering soup to the prince. It's been half a month since the prince went home, but you haven't even seen his face, miss, don't tell me you don't want to see the prince sooner, it's been more than three years, and the border is very bitter, and I don't know if the prince has lost weight or tanned, but..."

Liu Yu said with a smile like an intoxication, "The prince must still be the most handsome and personable prince!"

Lin Suniang looked at Liu Yu's smiling face, as if she both agreed with and envied her direct infatuation with the prince like this, and couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips and lowered her head, and a shy blush appeared on her white jade-like face.

The master and servant soon reached the kitchen.

The kitchen was full of fireworks, pots and pans clanged, and people kept coming in and out.

Dong Niangzi, the kitchen manager who was in command, still saw them greet them at a glance, "Miss Lin, the kitchen is very busy today, what is the important thing for you to come here?"

The implication is that it's okay to get out of here!

Lin Suniang lowered her eyelids and didn't dare to speak.

"It's such Mother Dong. Liu Yu stepped forward, "The prince is entertaining friends today, you also know that the prince has been away from home for more than three years, and it is natural for old friends to have a lively meeting." Miss Lin was afraid that the prince would drink too much wine and hurt her body when she was happy, so she wanted to make sobering soup for the prince herself, and bothered Dong's mother Zhang Luo. ”

"I see. A hint of mockery and disdain flashed in Dong's mother's eyes, "It just so happens that the things on the stove are almost over, and there should be an empty stove on the other side of the third stove room, so I will have someone prepare it for Miss Lin." ”

Saying that, he called someone to bring Lin Suniang and Liu Yu over.

A mother-in-law on the stove walked over, "Sister Dong, just say that there is no time on the stove to take people away, why bother this god?"

"Didn't Mrs. say, Miss Lin wants whatever she wants in the waiting house, and she can do whatever she wants, we just have to serve it. Dong Niangzi turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

"But now that the prince has returned, and the lady has also given her the 'dowry', is it still up to her to go to the prince?" asked the mother-in-law on the stove in confusion.

"What are you afraid of? No matter how beautiful this toad is like a swan, it is also a toad, can it become a real swan?" Dong Niangzi glanced at the mother-in-law, and the two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

Over there, Lin Suniang and Liu Yu were already boiling the decanting soup smoothly, and Cui'er beside Aunt Liu came.

"Sister Cui'er, why are you here?" asked Liu Yu, who was fanning the stove.

Cui'er smiled mysteriously, leaned over and said in Liu Yu's ear: "The banquet on the prince's side has been dispersed, and the table is touching the cards." ”

"Really, thank you so much, Sister Cui'er!" Liu Yu threw the fan in his hand and jumped up, and said loudly, "Miss Lin, let's go over now!"

Lin Su Niang, who was bending down to check whether the soup was boiled, stood up straight with some excitement and nervousness.

Cui'er took the opportunity to take two steps forward to open the lid of the soup, stirred it with a spoon and looked at it carefully, and whispered to Miss Lin: "This soup is boiling just right, Miss Lin should send it to the prince quickly! I won't accompany you, my aunt is still waiting for me to serve you!"

Lin Suniang whispered thanks: "Miss Cui'er is tired!"

Cui'er gave Lin Suniang an encouraging smile and turned around and walked out of the kitchen.

She hadn't walked a few steps out of the kitchen when two people came up to her.

I saw that the woman in front of me was wearing a long skirt of the same color as a water-red cross-collared shirt, with light green half-arms, combing a short bun, and inserting a jeweled butterfly hairpin.

Behind him was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman wearing a royal blue dress, with delicate facial features, long black and shiny hair coiled at the back of her head, and a few hairpins inserted at random. With a golden bracelet on her hand, jade earrings hanging from her ears, and a pearl necklace around her neck, she looks like the most powerful and favored big girl with a head and face next to her master.

At this time, she was holding a tray with a jug of wine on it.

Cui'er hurriedly bent her knees and saluted: "Miss Cousin!"

This cousin's maiden name is Wanqing, her mother is the sister of Mrs. Houfu now, and she is also the cousin of Cheng Mingyu, the prince of the world, and she is very favored by Mrs. and the prince, and she will live in Houfu for a short period of time every year.

Feng Wanqing walked straight to the kitchen without squinting, and walked straight to the kitchen with a dignified look, the maid raised her chin like smoke and bowed slightly to Cui'er with a proud expression.

Cui'er looked at the movement in her heart and quietly turned back to the kitchen door.
