Therefore, I didn't dare to do any more needlework for him for a long time.

Or Cuinong reminded that day, you can make some small things that can be used in the summer, and it is okay to do without spices on the left and right.

So I took the purple silk and wanted to make a fan cover for him. The pattern is a small ding. It not only has the meaning of stability in the country, but also alludes to the joke with him that day, "happy to be agarwood incense, Nong to be Fu Mountain furnace". These days have a lot of idle time, and they are almost done.

Just as he was collecting the last side, Qiu He came in and said, "Lord Mo Di is here." It was Aunt Zhan Lu who came with her. ”

I put the fan cover aside and smiled, "Please come in." ”

After a few words, Qiu He led Mo Di and Zhan Lu in. After seeing each other, Zhan Lu smiled and said to me: "Your Highness wants the servant to accompany Master Mo over, saying that there are some things that Liangyuan is very concerned about, so I specially invited Lord Mo to go and talk to you in person." After speaking, he saluted Mo Di again and said, "The maid is waiting in the outer hall." ”

Cuinong served the teacup, and then took Qiuhe to stand at the gate of the palace. As early as when I heard Zhan Lu say that Sheng Yao wanted Mo Di to come over and tell me something, I was already anxious to know if it was for the Gu family to enter Beijing. Therefore, he was not polite, when he looked at Mo Di with an inquiring gaze.

Mo Di raised his eyes to meet me, but quickly avoided it, and said: "There is news that the Gu family returned to Beijing and were captured by the rebels on the way. ”

I was stunned for a moment, then suddenly stood up, walked up to him and asked, "Is it true? Could it be fake news? Why did I meet the rebel ......?"

As I spoke, I paused - on the way back to Beijing, it was true that some of the prefectures and counties were in the hands of the rebels. If left unnoticed, the rebels would have paid little attention to ordinary passers-by. But if you have the heart to intercept someone, then it is as simple as probing for something.

couldn't help but plead with Mo Di anxiously: "Childe, is there a way to save the Hui clan?"

Mo Di said in a deep voice: "When it comes to saving people, I will take someone to go in person." It's just-" He glanced at me and said, "I'm afraid that the Xie family won't let your family go easily." ”

I was speechless: if it weren't for that, it wouldn't have attracted the attention of the rebels, so I had to stop the Gu family.

The elder brother is still trapped in the army of the five princes of Shangyong, and now he can only entrust it to Mo Di. Then he gave a deep salute and said, "Mingyan has thanked me in advance." ”

Mo Di reached out to hold me up.

His lips twitched as if he had something to say, but his gaze stopped on the fan cover I had made for Shengyao on the side. After hesitating for a moment, he silently put down the hand that helped me up, turned his head and left.

I was terrified, and I was really worried about what the rebels would do next when they took my parents and relatives. It is said that the Gu family has been silent in Beijing for many years, and most of the old friends of relatives and friends are scattered, even if they are called back to Beijing, it will not attract attention. Unless it is, Changruo, who knows my true identity, can deduce that Gu's return to Beijing this time will be reused. and hijacked it in order to follow suit.

Changruo, since you have already let me go, why do you have to embarrass my relatives?

I sat by the desk in front of the window in a daze, holding my cheeks and thinking carefully: Changruo and I, Xie and Gu, why did we come to this point?

"Liangyuan, Mrs. Chunchun of Shicui Pavilion is here. Qiuhe came in and said, interrupting my chaotic thoughts for a moment. Before I could answer, Ying Chunchun's sweet voice had already sounded: "Sister, I heard that you are doing needlework? ”

She comes to talk to me every day, and now she is very familiar with the Huiyin Palace. As soon as he finished speaking, the man had already entered the inner sanctum.

I smiled and said, "My sister sits." Then he turned his head sideways and ordered: "Harvest year, serve tea." ”

Coldly, Ying Chunchun had already reached out and picked up the fan cover from my lap, looked at it a few times, and then praised: "Sister is good at needlework." This embroidery method is like Gu embroidery. ”

I was shocked, but I immediately calmed down and asked, "Really, I don't think so." Has my sister seen Gu Xiu?"

Ying Chunchun's beautiful eyes were slightly raised, and he raised his eyes and smiled: "When my sister went to the county guard mansion with her mother as a guest, I was fortunate to see a Gu embroidery screen. Mrs. Gunjo's baby or something. Sister's needlework is delicate and interesting, and it is indeed very similar. ”

I also smiled and said, "Then thank my sister for praising me with Gu Xiu." Then he changed the subject, "My sister is going to pass through the garden when she comes, right?

Who knew that she only cared about turning over and over the fan cover in her hand, and muttered in her mouth: "Huan is agarwood incense, and Nong is Fushan furnace." They didn't hear me for a while.

It was still the personal palace man standing beside her who reminded with a smile: "Mrs. Chun, Liangyuan is talking to you!"

Ying Chunchun suddenly came back to his senses, and when he saw me looking at her with a faint smile, he put the fan cover back in my hand, and joked with a smile: "This fan cover is made for His Highness, right? Sister and His Highness, it's really enviable." ”

Seeing that I only smiled and didn't say anything, he said: "Sister just talked about the peonies in the garden, ouch, that's a lively bloom! Sister, let's go to the garden together!"

Because of the previous turmoil in Ci'an Palace, in order to avoid disaster in a low-key manner, I have not been out of the Huiyin Hall for many days. These days, I watched the spring coming and the end of spring behind the hall in front of the window, and I often thought of the peony in the back garden of Duofuxuan when I was still in Xiao Wangfu's mansion. I really wanted to go to the garden in my heart, so I smiled and agreed.

Chunchun was very happy, and urged the palace people to change my clothes and comb my hair.

I laughed and said, "That's weird, it's just a garden, why do you need to dress up again?"

Remembering that Su Ri didn't like hairpin rings in the inner hall, it was indeed too plain, so he turned around and went to the dressing table, and randomly took a crested bead hairpin and inserted it in the bun.

He looked back and smiled, "Is this good?"

Chunchun came over and grabbed my sleeve and said, "Okay, okay." Sister, this is also for the sake of my sister - how many snobbish eyes in the palace! If it's too plain, won't it make people think that my sister has fallen out of favor?" looked at my makeup box with a smile, picked out a pair of eight-treasure gold bracelets with filigree and fine gold, and put them on my right wrist for me.

I had been wearing the same jade bracelet as Shuangcheng, Qingzhuo, and An Ruo on my left wrist, and when I saw Chunchun like this, I couldn't help but laugh and said, "This is too cumbersome." ”

Chunchun smiled like the most beautiful poppy under the sun, and took me with her to the Agarwood Pavilion in the Imperial Garden, where the peonies have always been the best and most blooming in the palace.

The weather was very good, and the two walked slowly all the way.

Coincidentally, as soon as I crossed the Qunyu Creek, I saw Ruan Liangdi, with Qingrou and a few palace people, standing with their backs to us under a weeping begonia tree. The begonia was almost at the end of its bloom, and many petals were falling. Unbeknownst to her, there were already a lot of petals in her bun and on her shoulders.

I don't know what caused her to do this.

I couldn't help but glance at Cuinong.
