Chapter 161: Sugar
On the third day of March, the royal gardens are opened.
From the moment she entered the imperial city, Ah Yao's eyes couldn't stop turning up and down, left and right, one set of eye exercises, and one set of head movements.
This era is about the great tide waves in parallel time and space, similar to the Tang and Song dynasties, the imperial city is magnificent and atmospheric, and it has a different spirit from the Forbidden City.
She was surprised to see everything.
"A-Yao, watch your step. ”
She was looking at the scenery, Pei Shuo was watching her, and from time to time reminded her to pay attention to the steps, pay attention to the drop, and pay attention to the flow of people.
"Good. After being reminded a few times not to look at the scenery when she walked, and not to walk when she saw the scenery, A-Yao was embarrassed to get up, stuck out her tongue to the side, and turned back to Pei Shuo's smile, "Ah ......" was seen, she turned her head away, looked down at the ground, and couldn't wait to cover her face as if nothing had happened.
Pei Shuo was puzzled, thinking that there were too many people Ah Yao was not adaptable, and explained: "What's the matter, is there too many people? Only on this day the Mingjin Pond is open, and the imperial city allows the people to enter, and many people will stay here, and there will not be too many people when they get to the Mingjin Pond after walking this way." ”
Straight man. Ah Yao sighed, but fortunately, he didn't find out about her embarrassment.
But Pei Shuo thought, A-Yao's tongue sticking out is really cute. Is it more embarrassing than climbing the dog hole in a certain nunnery that year?
Her attention followed Pei Shuo's hand, and they were now standing in the main hall square.
"Whenever there are envoys to pay tribute, the saint led the civil and military officials to inspect the envoy's tribute in front of the Majesty carved with the cloud dragon pattern, the most beautiful time the envoys of dozens of countries came to the court, a cart of tribute from both sides of the four doors of the road transported, and so all the envoys and tributes arrived, the whole square looked down the group of flowers, colorful flags swaggered in the wind, what a majesty. ”
Ah Yao's imagination of that scene is fascinating.
Now there are people in the square who are dragging their families and mouths to bow down to the main hall, and there are forbidden soldiers guarding the steps of the cloud dragon pattern, and the people are not allowed to pass.
As Pei Shuo went out of Qingyun Gate, the sound of crowds and drums from far and near, the number of people gradually increased, and there were forbidden soldiers on the road to guard the main roads in and out of the inner court, so as to prevent people with ill intentions from mixing into the palace, and at the same time play a role in guiding the people and maintaining order.
Ah Yao and Pei Shuo followed the flow of people and turned into a road, the flow of people diverted from here, the stone railing and the blue lake water crashed into their eyes, and the Mingjin Pond was close in front of them.
"Wow!" Yao exclaimed.
The sky is blue, and the blue lake reflects each other, and the weather is rare. On the farthest uninhabited island, there is a group of egrets walking in the shallows, diagonally opposite it, moored a five-story dragon boat decorated with lanterns and silk curtains, the dragon boat has a total of nine dragons entrenched, meaning the ninety-five supreme. Now the shore of the boat is full of people.
Pei Shuo said: "Let's go, let's go over there, there is a water swing performance, but you better catch my ...... Sleeves, beware of being pushed down, the place where the dragon boat is moored is the deepest in the entire Mingjin Lake. ”
Ah Yao looked down.
Pei Shuo is wearing a neat dark short brown today, with a half-arm of the same color that reaches the thigh, and the fabric is embellished with red curly grass patterns, which is the most commonly worn by the people, and it is also very suitable for working in the field.
It's better to grab half an arm than for her to tie down the plate. A-Yao glanced at him and pulled up her food box: "Hmph, I'll pay attention, and ask me to grab your clothes the next time you wear a big-sleeved shirt." ”
She walked straight forward, leaving Pei Shuo annoyed, caught up and grabbed A-Yao's hand, and interlocked her fingers: "Don't mess around, what should I do if there are too many people? ”
“……”
Ah Yao stared at the hands held by the two, Pei Shuo's hands were so warm, so warm that his face was hot.
Like her, there is Pei Shuo, whose neck and ears are thin red.
The dragon boat's water swing is a fancy swing diving. The swing is on the edge of the side of the boat, the diver listens to the drum play, the sound stops, the swing swings to the highest place and lets go, causing the onlookers to scream, the diver makes various gestures in the air, presses the water into the water, which is quite impressive.
"Where are we going to eat?"
Ah Yao watched a few dives, applauded until her hands were red, and when she arrived at the back, there was no too eye-catching action, she was also satisfied, there seemed to be no place to sit and eat nearby, and asked Pei Shuo.
Another diver swinged, the drums beat rapidly, and the cheering and shouting of the people next to him overshadowed Ah Yao's words, even if the two of them were only close to each other, it was difficult to hear the conversation.
"What did you say?" Pei Shuo pulled his throat, he only heard A-Yao's opening and closing, but he couldn't hear her voice clearly.
She felt that her throat was uncomfortable, so she simply hooked her fingers to let Pei Shuo get closer, Pei Shuo squatted down, and A-Yao leaned in his ear and said, "I said, do you want to eat?"
The performance is good-looking, and Ah Yao has not forgotten that today's protagonist is Pei Shuo.
The breath was in his ears, where could Pei Shuo hear her words, his mind was full of warm fragrant nephrite, and what resounded was his beating heartbeat: "That, that ......"
"Huh?"
Wow –
The diver throws himself into the water, a splash blooms, the lake is undulating, everything is calm, and the people nearby are reveling calmly, talking about the actions of the person who has just dived.
This sound also broke Pei Shuo's psychedelia, Ah Yao widened the distance between them, reached out and probed his forehead, worried: "Are you okay? ”
Pei Shuo blurted out: "Here you go." ”
“……”
"A-Yao, I saw it when you came, and you blushed. ”
......After a while, Ah Yao returned to the field, picked up the food box and said, "Do you see this food box? I won't give it to you if I eat it myself." ”
"Don't!"
Mingjin Pond is the only garden that does not leave people for picnics, after seeing the big dragon boat and the water swing fancy diving, Pei Shuo also asked her if she wanted to go to the Hongyuan or ride a horse to the Dongshan hunting ground on the outskirts of Beijing, A-Yao shook her head: "Listen to you today." ”
Pei Shuo: "Find a place to eat the contents of the food box, I want to eat the noodles you made." ”
"Okay. ”
A-Yao took Pei Shuo back to Sun Niang's foot shop, opened the shop and asked him to find a place to sit down, take out the five-color cakes, four-happiness dumplings, and spring cakes in the food box, and there was black tea poured in the morning in the bamboo tube, and she went to the kettle for hot water: "I have eaten five-color cakes, and I am rising step by step." ”
Pei Shuo ate very slowly, raised his eyes from time to time, and glanced at Ah Yao quickly to make sure that she was still eating.
"Look at what I'm doing, I'm not going to go anywhere else, don't talk about it, I'm going to cook noodles. Ah Yao laughed and propped up to go to the kitchen.
The little obedient got out of the cuff and swam around the pastry, obviously wanting to eat it, Pei Shuo stared at it wide-eyed, only to see the afterimage in three or two, the plate was empty, and Pei Shuo's cheeks were bulging like a hamster stealing food.
Little girl: "......"
There was a commotion outside, attracting the attention of both men and snakes.
