Minglan came back to his senses and asked, "What did you say?"

Gu Yinlan's face smacked, glared at Minglan fiercely, and turned his face away, not wanting to deal with her. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Minglan didn't care about her, until the carriage stopped in front of the Protector's Mansion, no one said a word.

In his previous life, Ming Lan had also come to the Protector's Mansion, and as in his memory, there were two bronze pigs in front of the Protector's Mansion, with angry eyes wide open, which was very shocking.

The pig is an ancient mythical beast, the big one is like a cow, the small one is like a sheep, similar to a unicorn, the eyes are bright and godly, and the forehead is pointed with horns, commonly known as a unicorn.

It is reported that these two big bronze hedgehogs are the things given by the emperor, because the hedgehog can distinguish between right and wrong, can know good and evil, loyal and treacherous, the emperor hopes that the protector can help the court to choose good talents, become a generation of virtuous ministers.

After getting out of the carriage, the maid from the Protector's Mansion greeted her, and said with a smile, "Second Miss Gu is here, and our four girls have asked a few times." ”

Minglan smiled, "Let the four girls wait for a long time." ”

"Please. ”

The maid leads the way.

Minglan and Gu Yinlan walked into the Protectorate Mansion side by side, followed by Bizhu and Luliu.

The maid led them directly into the inner courtyard and went straight to the garden.

Stepping through the moon-shaped arch, you can hear the laughter and laughter coming from the garden.

Although the weather in winter, it is not cold, and the garden does not have the cold and gloomy cold of the cold winter in the past.

Seeing Minglan from a distance, Li Peiyao, the fourth girl from the Protector's Mansion, walked over with a bright smile on her face, "You can count on it, and you are the only one." ”

Minglan sighed, "Why did I come so late?"

In the garden, in addition to a few girls from the Protector's Mansion, there are seven or eight girls, Jin Chan and Yuer, charming and charming, and more importantly, their identities are not bad.

It seems that except for her who is the Bofu, the others are either from the Hou Mansion, the Guogong Mansion, or the county lord.

Minglan was surprised, but Gu Yinlan was overjoyed, she tried her best to suppress her excitement, but her shining eyes still leaked everything.

She took the pine nut scales from the maid's hand, handed them to Li Peiyao and said, "I know that the fourth girl is a flower lover, and this pot of pine nut scales is my servant, I hope you can like it." ”

Li Peiyao looked at the pine nut scales, liked it very much, and said, "Although I like flowers, I don't know how to play with them, and the flowers you raise are really beautiful." ”

Gu Yinlan blushed from being praised, looked at Minglan and said, "Didn't you also bring a gift to the fourth girl, why didn't you take it out?"

Li Peiyao looked at Minglan, her daughter's family, they all like to receive gifts, Minglan smiled at her, then took a brocade box from Bizhu's hand, handed it to her, and said, "Time is in a hurry, the preparation is not thorough, and I hope the fourth girl will not dislike it." ”

Li Peiyao chuckled, "Call me the four girls to have more points, and call me Peiyao in the future, I was abrupt, I originally said that I would go to play with you, but I gave you a post temporarily, but you just came, I brought gifts, I'm embarrassed, I'll return the gift one by one another day." ”

As she spoke, she raised the brocade box in her hand and said, "I'll open it now?"

Minglan motioned for her to please.

Li Peiyao opened the brocade box and saw a rolled painting inside, her eyes blinked, and then it suddenly became clear what she meant by poor preparation, this painting was not framed.

"Why do you give away unframed paintings?" Gu Yinlan was surprised, and his voice rose a little higher.

For fear that no one would know about her not being able to give gifts, she deliberately screamed so loudly that a few girls over there heard it and moved their footsteps.

Li Peiyao took out the painting, handed the brocade box to the maid, and then slowly unfolded the painting.

When she saw the painting clearly, a flash of joy flashed in her eyes, "This painting is me?"

"Exactly. ”

"This dress and headdress is really beautiful," Li Peiyao liked it very much, looked at Minglan and said, "You designed it?"

Minglan shook his head and smiled, "How can I have that ability, yesterday you sent me a post, I thought that I couldn't come empty-handed, I couldn't think of a suitable gift, I actually fell asleep, and I dreamed of you, in the dream, you are dressed like this, floating like a fairy, captivating the country and the city, I just painted it casually, it was late at night, and I didn't have time to find someone to frame it, so I brought it directly." ”

Not only did Li Peiyao feel that her clothes were exquisite in the painting, but several girls who came over on the side were amazed, "What a beautiful dress, are these sleeves hollowed out, no one in Kyoto has ever worn them like this." ”

Li Peiyao looked at it again and again, and said, "I can't wait for the embroidery girl to make the clothes on this painting now." ”

She was also an anxious child, so she carefully rolled up the painting, handed it to the maid and said, "Send it to the embroidery workshop, let the embroidery girl make it as soon as possible, and don't let them stain the painting, go back and frame it for me." ”

Obviously, she was very satisfied with the gift that Minglan gave her.

Li Peiyi, the eldest girl of the Protector's Mansion, looked at Minglan and said with a smile, "I am inseparable from my fourth sister, you dream of her, but you don't dream of me?"

Generally, who sends the invitation, who prepares a gift for whom, this is a customary rule, after all, the family, a bunch of concubines, not everyone knows so clearly, in case it is embarrassing, fortunately who receives the post, it will be prepared for whom, and others do not, it is not rude.

Li Peiyi said this, obviously liking Fang Cai's painting and wanting it too, Minglan shook his head lightly and said, "I haven't seen Miss Li before, but now that I have seen it, when I dream of you when I look back, I will definitely draw you too." ”

In fact, Minglan has also seen her, but at that time she was already married, and she was dressed as a noble lady, and now she draws it, which is too inappropriate.

Li Peiyao took Minglan's hand, introduced her to the other girls, and said, "This is what I told you, the second girl of Jingningbo Mansion who boldly crossed the iron bridge behind the Great Chan Temple, she almost fell that day, if it were me, she would definitely cry in fear, but fortunately with her, otherwise it would be me who fell." ”

That day, she said cruel words, saying that she wanted to cross the iron bridge, but when she really got to the iron bridge, she hesitated.

Hesitating, between the dilemma Minglan came, and resolved the embarrassment for her, she still remembers.

Li Peiyao pulled Minglan affectionately, even if those girls gave Li Peiyao face, they also smiled a little at Minglan, and said, "Isn't your father the newly appointed squire of the military department?"

Minglan nodded and chuckled.

Several girls suddenly looked at Minglan's eyes and became a little gentler.

Li Peiyao pulled Minglan forward, and a voice came from behind her, "She is really good at sycophancy." ”

Since I came to enjoy the flowers, there will be no shortage of flowers in the garden, and at a cursory glance, there are seventy or eighty kinds, strange flowers and vines, and there are countless of them.

Everyone was wandering in the garden, Li Peiyi said with a smile, "This year is a warm winter, it's not cold at all, and I don't know when the plum blossoms will bloom. ”

Li Peiyao picked a peony and put it in her hand and played, "The plum blossoms will definitely bloom, but there is no snow, and there is always a little less charm in appreciating the plum blossoms, how can you read that poem?"
