Fanwai 1 Qingchu first met
The spring of the sixteenth year of Guardian arrived very early, just out of the first month, and it was already warm. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info standing in a wine shop in Jinling City, looking into the distance, a piece of peach and willow green, disturbing people's eyes.
The sky is clear, the blue of the Yangtze River and the sky are connected, and it is really a good feeling. The sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded on the boulevard in the suburbs, and one person rode to a stop at the door of the wine shop. Immediately afterwards, the attendant-like person walked quickly to the second floor of the wine shop near the river, and through the layers of Confucian scholars drinking and tasting poetry, he finally searched for the tall and familiar figure.
"Third Highness, the time has passed, you should go back to the post house to change your clothes, there is also Emperor Jiade's birthday banquet tonight, Lord Liang is looking for you urgently."
The man known as the "Third Highness" slowly turned around, and finally saw his face clearly, about the age of the weak crown, although he had a handsome face, but at the moment his expression was a little indescribable lonely and melancholy.
"Why am I going?" The man replied coldly, and his voice became a little magnetic due to the wind and cold.
The attendant was a little anxious, "Your Highness, although I have already presented a congratulatory gift to Emperor Jiade a few days ago, today is the most important thing!" If you don't go, I'm afraid you'll have a bad day. β
The man glanced nostalgically at the vast Yangtze River, flicked his robe, and walked towards the outside of the wine store.
The birthday of Emperor Jiade of Southern Chu is the second day of the second month of February, and it is said that in the eyes of the people of Chu who believe in witchcraft, it is extremely ominous to be born in February, but Emperor Jiade was born on the day when the dragon raised its head, so many rumors were naturally avoided.
On the land of China, Southern Chu and Great Xia were ruled by the river, although they had been in war for many years, they could not hold each other. In the recent Battle of Yizhou, the Xia Dynasty was defeated by Zhang Jianfeng, a famous general of Southern Chu, and the Great Xia Emperor had to put down his dignity and send envoys to Jinling, nominally to celebrate the birthday of the Southern Chu Emperor, but in fact it was a border agreement. In order to show his sincerity, the Great Xia Emperor also specially sent the concubine of the Middle Palace, the third son of the emperor, Yu Wenche.
The Chu people pay the most attention to etiquette, and the emperor of Southern Chu is a person who loves poetry and etiquette, and treats Yu Wenche, a foreign prince, very politely, with good wine and meat. However, it seems that this Third Highness is born not to smile, and he has been keeping a strained face, which makes people involuntarily stay away.
Seeing this, Liang Su was afraid that the Emperor of Southern Chu would have a dislike for Yuwen Che, so he hurriedly found a reason and sent him out.
It was still early for the banquet to end, and Yu Wenche wandered aimlessly around the Chu Palace. For some reason, when the palace maids in the Chu Palace saw him, they would cover their slightly reddened cheeks and smile. He touched his face, shook his head helplessly, and continued to walk forward.
The scenery of Chu Palace is good, beautiful and elegant, and it is lined with the lingering and sympathetic wind in the south of the Yangtze River, which is completely different from the majestic palace prohibition of Great Xia. In fact, when he received the edict to go to Nanchu to give a birthday gift, Yu Wenche was still extremely reluctant, and there was always a feeling of not being taken seriously. But when he actually arrived in Jinling with the envoy team, he was shocked by Jiangnan and couldn't take a step.
It's just that this great river and mountain is separated outside of Great Xia, if the Chinese territory can be unified, and the people will not suffer from war, what a prosperous scene!
Just thinking like this, he suddenly heard the crying of children, followed the sound, and finally saw a little girl of three or four years old crying at her mother-in-law in a garden.
The little girl sat on the stone by the flowers, whining and weeping, and rubbing her eyes with her dirty hands. The corners of the pale yellow cardigan were torn and drooped to the side, and the cloth shoes embroidered with pear blossoms were rubbed with heavy soil.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, don't embarrass the old slave, if you let the queen see your appearance, you will punish the old slave again. Shall we go back to the attic and change into new clothes and come out to play again? The mother-in-law called the little girl a princess, which really surprised Yu Wenche. Emperor Jiade is not confused when he is too old, there is such a young princess, and the Chu people have always been personable, and the people in front of him... Is this really a princess?
"Don't! When I go back, you won't let me come out, I don't... I don't want it! The little girl sat against the stone wall, her little face covered with dust.
"How... How dare the old slave deceive Her Royal Highness? The princess is obedient, don't be naughty..."
"Don't!"
Seeing that the mother-in-law was really anxious, Yuwen Che couldn't help but be kind, and walked over to the little girl and said, "The princess still listens to the nurse, and the girl should be well-behaved." β
Who knows, the girl snorted coldly and rolled her eyelids, "Who are you!" β
Yu Wenche is a person who has been in the military camp for a long time, and he is used to being strong and cold in the past, and it is rare not to be impatient at this time, "The third son of the emperor in the Xia Dynasty, he is known as Che." β
The little girl didn't understand, but the nurse standing on the side heard it clearly, and saluted him again and again.
He didn't care, but when he saw that the little girl's brows were furrowed, she seemed to be thinking about something. However, Yu Wenche examined her carefully, and sure enough, she was a beauty embryo at a young age, her round little face was delicate and cute, if the layer of mud on her face was removed, it was estimated that she would be a lot whiter.
The girl began to cry mischievously again, interrupting his thoughts. Anyway, in order to avoid the stalemate between the girl and the nurse, he should be a good person, "What does the princess want to play?" β
The little girl stopped her tears instantly, and said in a milky voice with big black eyes, "I'm going to catch earthworms inside." β
The direction she pointed to was obviously a wide flower bed, which made Yu Wenche smile bitterly, how could this girl be so naughty. He thought for a moment and said, "Catching earthworms is outdated, and in our Great Summer, the girls play the most fashionable game. β
She puffed out her cheeks and said, "What kind of fashionable games do you all play in Daxia?" β
He looked at the wisteria flowers growing unbridled next to the palace wall, and an idea came to his heart, "The brothers will hold it, and the sisters will pick the flowers. β
The little girl's eyes lit up, but the game itself was so lame and naΓ―ve. Finally, the guy stopped crying, ran to him, raised his little face and opened his arms and said, "Brother hug." β
Yu Wenche hugged her, only to suddenly realize that the little girl in her arms was like a glutinous rice dumpling, round and soft, which made people feel pity. She was like a porcelain doll, making him extremely cautious, for fear of hurting her.
The little girl went to pick the wisteria flowers in the high place strangely, played with interest for a while, and inserted all the wisteria flowers in his sideburns, Yu Wenche couldn't believe how funny he looked at this time.
was playing happily, but a soft shout came from the distance, "Qing'er, you are naughty again!" Don't hurry down yet! β
Yuwen Che heard the prestige, and the person who came to him was only weak and old, wearing a moon white embroidered four-clawed golden dragon pattern court dress, a golden crown of the dragon on his head, and bright yellow soap boots, which looked really magnificent.
The little girl scurried down and ran over lively, "Brother Prince!" β
