Yesterday lightning and thunder roared, black clouds overwhelmed the city, and the storm rained all night. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info In the early morning, the rain turned light, and the drizzle continued, and the entire Chang'an City was shrouded in a misty. In the afternoon, when the clouds dispersed, Li Minxin read a few poems describing the rain and the sunny sky, and was quite complacent, and came out leisurely to enjoy the scenery when the rain stopped today.

The rain-watered trees and flowers have changed from being sluggish under the scorching sun, the grass and trees are becoming thicker and thicker, and the flowers that have been damaged by the wind and rain have also grown new shoots, which will release more beautiful colors under the clear and gorgeous sky.

Li Min did not bring the attendants with him, but took a boat alone to cross the warm lake and go for a walk in the garden on the shore.

A few pieces of white as thick as cotton wool fell into the lake, and the water churned, and the slender orange beak poked out of the water, holding a red carp tightly like two huge colored chopsticks. The gulls and herons jumped up from the lake beating the water, flapping their wings and flying into the blue sky, the stirred water gently rocking the boat, and Li Min sat on the boat as if lying in a rocking chair. The water of the lake was splashed into the heart of the water lily, and the golden water lily was overwhelmed and slanted by the lake, as if it was a beautiful and unearthly self-appreciating lonely fragrance.

With the guidance of Lin Yueyuan's cheerful personality and the considerate care of her children, she was like a red rhododendron trapped in a potted plant, which was retransplanted on the field, and the free and wide land gave her new vitality.

Much of her appearance inherited her mother's Hu ancestry: white skin like lily of the valley, a straight nose, a slightly hooked nose, and a body that was wider than the average girl of her age. However, the flaw is due to the long-term malnutrition of her youth, which made her body that could have been plump as a mother become thin and shriveled, and the lack of sun and fresh air soothed her, making her slightly hunchbacked, but the tall and thin figure is undoubtedly the nemesis of the hunchback, which highlights this shortcoming even more obviously, and from a distance it looks like a rootless bean sprout fluttering in the wind.

She followed a secluded path into the bamboo forest, and the dense green bamboo covered the sky and the sun. At the end of the bamboo forest is a very magnificent rockery, and the mountain forest is hollow, revealing a bright light. She was like a light-seeking firefly, following the guidance of the light.

Passing through the bamboo forest and entering the rockery, she climbed around the rockery like a mountaineering adventure. There were many birds roosting in the cave, and they were all startled by her. It is as if countless fireworks are thrown into the sky, marking out a colorful color.

She climbed a flat stone block with her hands and feet, on which there was a stone bench for visitors to rest, and the stone table was carved with reliefs, which was both practical and aesthetic. The rainwater accumulated on the stone benches and stone tables had evaporated. She looked up and saw that the sun was high in the sky, and the dark clouds had already dispersed like lost dogs. She reached out and touched the stone bench, and the tentacles were dry and cold. Behind the stone bench is a tree with lush foliage like a car cover, and its shade wraps the tables and chairs in it, which is the perfect place to cool off in summer.

Li Min took out a handkerchief and brushed away the rain-beaten leaves on the stool, and sat on the stool and thought leisurely.

The sound of footsteps shattered her leisurely state of mind. A group of brightly dressed women rudely invaded the pure land of nature with a luxurious scent. The two leaders were gorgeously dressed and covered in pearls, and the excessive decoration had concealed their original appearances, red rouge, snow-white incense powder, and their faces were like rice balls wrapped in flour, embellished with three symmetrical and ridiculous scarlets.

They were followed by three or four aristocratic girls, all dressed in gorgeous and delicate clothes. On either side, there were six or seven palace maids who served with them.

Since Li Min didn't go out for a long time, he naturally didn't know that this balcony was the favorite place for Princess Jinbo, the fourth daughter of Concubine Wu De. Concubine Wu Defei was born in a scholarly family in Longxi, although her ancestors were not a gatekeeper, but she was quite famous in the local area because of her noble character. Except for the deceased Concubine Xu Xian, and Concubine Lin Shu, who was at the same level as her, her grade was second to that of the noble concubine.

Concubine De Niangniang is generous and benevolent, easy and peaceful to people and things, and extremely thrifty, not as arrogant and lascivious as the concubine, and likes luxury. Although she had no children under her knees and gave birth to five daughters for the emperor, she was respected by the emperor because she was not arrogant or jealous, and was wise and knowledgeable. It's a pity that no one is perfect, Concubine De has a gentle personality, and there is no thunderous means of the concubine. Therefore, he is arrogant and doting on his daughter, although the three adult princesses are married, they are all high-flying, and they are even more disrespectful to their husbands, and there have even been scandals of cheating.

This Princess Jinbo is the fourth princess who is about to become an adult, and her temperament is the same as her three sisters. Next to her, a palace fan in her hand, slightly inferior in dress and appearance is Princess Yuhe, Zhen Zhaoyi's daughter. Zhen Zhaoyi and Concubine De are on good terms, the two princesses are of the same age, they have been playing together since they were children, Princess Yuhe and Princess Jinbo have been together for a long time, and naturally they have also been infected with some profligate and extravagant habits.

When Li Min saw everyone coming, he immediately stood respectfully and respectfully like a palace maid.

Princess Jinbo smiled contemptuously, and her eyes skipped over her face, as if she had not seen her at all, and covered her mouth and smiled at the rest of the women, "Look, this is a rare thing, there is a turtle in the shade." ”

The girls immediately understood what she meant, and because of Princess Li Min's identity, they didn't dare to answer the question presumptuously, but just snickered lightly.

Princess Yuhe pretended not to know, and asked knowingly: "Where is it, where is there a turtle, why didn't I see it." Sister deceives. The turtle will take advantage of the cold, and it is difficult to become a cultivator. ”

She stretched out her fingers, her bright red nails scratching in front of her, and said, "No, you just look over there." ”

After speaking, her hand clicked on Li Min's body, and then she was surprised: "Yo, this is not Xiao Tongxia, it's rare to see you come out." ”

Yuhe stroked his palms in surprise and laughed: "Haha, I saw it and it was still a turtle with a shrunken head." ”

This kind of deliberate humiliation made Li Min ashamed, and her face was immediately red, she remembered Lin Yueyuan's teachings, and thirty-six plans were the best plan. When you encounter criticism, don't stand there stupidly and let others slander you.

Still fearful in her heart, she muttered two reasons in a low voice, and was in a hurry to leave.

Princess Jinbo was extremely annoyed by her perfunctory attitude, and scolded loudly with a calm face: "Stop, where are you going, are your eyes on your face blind?" I didn't see your two sisters standing here, still hiding. Not yet! ”

Li Min's body began to tremble uncontrollably, and she saluted tremblingly, almost being knocked down by herself.

Princess Jinbo fiercely snatched the palace fan from Princess Yuhe's hand, slapped her head hard and scolded: "I haven't seen her for a long time, why are you still so unstrong, you will only hide when you see someone." It's too embarrassing for the royal family, according to me, if you know that you can't see people, don't just come out, and you will be upset by someone. ”

Li Min sobbed suppressedly, and said in a chaotic breath: "Tongxia knows that she is wrong. ”

Relying on the arrogance of Princess Jinbo, Princess Yuhe also put on a stern posture of the eldest sister and said: "What Sister said is very true, Tongxia, you can remember, you are born to a concubine of Orchid, although you are a princess, you are the most inferior. ”

There is no intimate friendship between sisters in this cruel language, there is only a sense of superiority and oppression. Li Min, who was full of grievances, could only nod under the oppression of the two. Such a lowly and lowly person is not even as good as a maid, and her title of princess is also as low as grass in the eyes of other noblewomen, and they gradually show a look of disdain, and some even laugh out loud.

Far from being satisfied with such simple verbal torture, Princess Jinbo had more interesting methods of torture, and every time she broke her psychological defenses, she could not express a sense of pleasure when she looked at her shrunken and shivering on the ground: "I see that you are lazy and leisurely in the garden, and you have grown a lot compared to your recent homework." I know all the words, and I have memorized "Thousand Character Text" and "Urgent Chapter". ”

In fact, Li Min has long remembered these elementary enlightenment articles, but the perennial oppression and blows made her feel afraid and cowardly, and she had no courage to show herself in front of others, so she could only blush silently.

Princess Yuhe yawned impatiently, and said lazily: "Sister, Tongxia is notoriously stupid, she hasn't memorized all the "Urgent Chapters" for a whole year, and she is almost over, and she can't even write a decent limerick poem. But then speaking, this can be regarded as a woman's lack of talent is virtue. ”

Princess Jin Bo raised her eyebrows and said, "Sister, that's not right." As royal women, we are role models for women in the world. The daughters of the common people naturally want to be virtuous and take care of the family. We are different, once married to a woman, it represents the face of the heavenly family, if every princess does not learn and ignorant, vulgar and ignorant, where is the holy religion of the Son of Heaven, where is the royal ritual religion? ”

When Princess Yuhe heard this, she immediately pretended to be respectful and submissive, nodded and said: "Sister's words are extremely beneficial, even the royal princess has to learn etiquette, poetry and the teachings of the saints, and we have to work hard." ”

The two sang and harmonized, and humiliated Li Min again.

Princess Jinbo took a step back, let a person come forward, compared to the other women wearing gold and silver, although this woman is also covered with jade ornaments but looks a little elegant, this woman looks good, but the skin is dark, the bridge of the nose is slightly collapsed, but she does not squint, her hands are straight, her head does not move when she looks at people, her eyes move slightly, and she looks very high.

She politely introduced it to Li Min: "Did you hear that? Tongxia, this Miss Meng is a descendant of the sage Meng Fuzi, a family heirloom, family history, moral character, and a wonderful poem, you have to learn more from her. ”

Meng Lian stood still, but Li Min greeted her first: "Yes, please Miss Meng don't dislike Tongxia for being stupid, please don't hesitate to give advice." ”

If it were another woman, she would be sincerely afraid of the princess who was so humble, but she was graceful and said lightly: "Princess Tongxia is polite, Princess Jinbo is praised." The little girl is ashamed to be ashamed, she never dares to teach, and it is okay to learn from each other. ”

This was a bit rude to say, but Li Min was not annoyed, just nodded to her humbly like a student. She was not ashamed or humble, and arrogantly accepted the respect of the other party.

Her repeated humble concessions still did not arouse the slightest pity on the part of Princess Jinbo. Princess Jin Bo still didn't intend to let go of any of her chances to make a fool of herself: "Well, that Tongxia will recite a recent new article to Ah Lian to listen to." ”

Li Min felt like a thunderous thunder in her heart, constantly hitting her fragile heart, she looked around at the snickering faces of the noble girls behind the two princesses, like a drowning person who had been sunk to the bottom of the sea, and her mind was confused for a while. Although she really wanted to find a place to hide herself so that she felt safe, she was powerless to refuse her sister's malice: "This, I recently studied Han Gong's "Shi Shuo""

Princess Jin Bo nodded, in the tone of an old pedant: "This is a good article, and it is short, come back to us to listen to it, and let Miss Meng give you some pointers." ”

Li Min's nervous face turned crimson, and he didn't dare to look at the others, his hands pinched each other, his eyes kept rolling towards the sky, and he recited softly while thinking.

She stumbled to memorize the entire article, and it took three times as long as ordinary people. Princess Yuhe kept waving the palace fan, like a fly to drive away her sleepiness.

Meng Lian bowed her head lightly, and said with a straight face: "Since Princess Jinbo asked me to be the superintendent of Princess Tongxia, I must be fair and strict, the princess just made five mistakes." ”

She pointed out the mistakes of Li Min's recitation one by one, and if she hadn't memorized the text backwards, it would have been difficult to find this not obvious mistake or omission in the intermittent recitation.

Princess Yuhe really admired her patience and perseverance, she actually listened to her sentence by sentence in such a boring and boring recitation, and seriously corrected her mistakes.

Li Min was not convinced by the reasonableness of what she ordered, although there were some places where she even forgot to memorize it herself, but after listening to what the other party said, she also memorized it earnestly. But Meng Li's next sentence really shocked everyone: "Please stretch out your hand and serve the ruler." Her strong words were announcing her identity as a teacher to everyone.

How could everyone carry the ring ruler with them when they came out to play, Princess Yuhe broke off a branch from the tree next to her with a wicked smile, and when she broke off the branches and leaves, it was a small bare stick.

Meng Lian couldn't help but take it, turned over Li Min's right hand, and twitched it three times. The three whip marks on her right hand suddenly became red and swollen. A great sense of shame overshadowed the burning pain, her cheeks seemed to be burned, the heavy humiliation weighed on her shoulders, her head hung even lower, like a lonely seedling struck by the wind.

"Please stretch out your left hand." Meng Lian ordered, Li Min did not have a trace of resistance and anger, and obediently stretched out his left hand.

A sudden angry rebuke sounded under the rockery: "Stop! ”

Lin Yueyuan stepped on the stone and rose up, like a raging flame rising into the air, and instantly rushed onto the stone platform.

She protected Li Min behind her, and was about to reprimand Meng Min for her rude behavior, but when she saw Princess Jinbo raising her eyebrows and stepping forward, she pulled Li Min back a step, restrained herself from bowing and saluted, and asked, "Dare to ask why the two princesses are so decent why they want to beat people." ”

Princess Jinbo has always disliked Lin Yueyuan, who has a hard temper, and said angrily: "Ah Yuan's words are wrong, the two princesses Jin Bo and Yuhe are just teaching their younger sister homework, Princess Tongxia has made a mistake in reciting it, and the beating of the ruler is to inflict a small punishment, not to beat people." ”

Lin Yueyuan said stiffly: "I have never heard of this kind of teaching rules, and if you can't memorize it, you will be beaten." ”

Meng Lian said coldly: "Listening to this, presumably Miss Lin has not been taught by her master, so she doesn't know the rules. For those of us who have a strict family education, even women have to study with the men in the family, and no one has ever been disciplined by Mr. Jiajuku. In order to show that she was also a woman from a scholarly family, the women immediately agreed.

Of course, Lin Yueyuan listened to her sarcasm. Meng Lian regarded herself as a descendant of a sage, and she was blind, and even royal women were occasionally ridiculed by her. Lin Yueyuan didn't bother to argue with her family background, so she only sneered and said, "That's good, Ah Min, Miss Meng Lian has taught you so hard, you can recite the article just now and see what the results of this teacher's teaching are." ”

When Li Minmeng saw Lin Yueyuan, who loved her very much, she almost cried out in grievance, but unexpectedly, her sister Yueyuan asked her to recite it again, which means that she is going to make a fool of herself again, she wants to refuse, but she doesn't dare to resist. I can only cry and cry intermittently.

Both Princess Jinbo and Princess Yuhe frowned and interrupted her because they couldn't bear her unpleasant crying.

Lin Yueyuan snorted: "It seems that you don't teach very well, it's better for her to carry it to me in private." ”

Princess Jin Bo shouted forcefully: "Why is it worse and worse to memorize, it is not as good as the first time, I think it is a light beating, and she must be punished heavily to remember it for a long time." ”

"Can't fight!" Lin Yueyuan refused categorically.

After being ridiculed and wronged, Li Min quietly pulled her sleeve, and whispered unsteadily: "Sister Yueyuan, don't say it, it's because Amin is not angry, so he made mistakes again and again, and even memorized the wrong book, Amin is really useless, and the lesson of the sisters is that Amin has no complaints." ”

Lin Yueyuan pulled his sleeves angrily, glared at her, and turned his head to retort: "The two princesses also said that after the fight, it got worse, this can't be said that the students don't work, but the teacher teaches wrong!" ”

"Listening to Yueyuan's words, Princess Tongxia must have asked you for advice in private." Meng Lian sneered again.

Lin Yueyuan was neither humble nor arrogant: "I don't dare to ask for advice, I don't dare to call myself a teacher, the princess is a royal bloodline and she is smart and clever, but she is a little too shy and afraid of people, and she is also modest and deferential in front of the princesses, and she doesn't dare to show it too much, this is to hide it." ”

Princess Yuhe hugged her shoulders playfully, shook the palace fan and said, "So we all underestimate Tongxia." Tongxia is literary and romantic, and she is full of economic economy and just deliberately pretends to be stupid and ignorant, for fear of taking the face of our sisters. That's great, after January, at the East Palace Flower Viewing Party, I will definitely ask the crown princess to make up for this invitation, and Amin will have a good experience of your amazing talent at that time. ”

She winked at Princess Jinbo. Princess Jin Bo clapped her hands loudly and agreed: "Wonderful, wonderful." When Tongxia shows her style, it will definitely impress us. Let's go. ”

Princess Jin Bo took the treacherous Princess Yuhe away proudly, and the other daughters also left one after another, and the last to leave, Meng Lian, did not forget to leave a contemptuous look before leaving.
