It wasn't until the second day that Chu Shuhuang appeared in front of Jiang Li again in good spirits, and Jiang Li was relieved. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info But as the New Year approached, Chu Shuhuang couldn't stay longer, so he accompanied Jiang Li for a few days, and when he saw that she was really fine, he left and returned to the palace.
Although the queen didn't want her to run around like this, she couldn't deny her contribution to the Chu State. Although she is only a princess, she has enjoyed the glory brought by her status and should do her best. taught her to pay more attention to safety as usual, and let her go back.
It's going to be a holiday, there are a lot of things in the palace, but Chu Shuhuang doesn't need to do anything, so she sent Mama Lin to visit the county lord of Chuxin, everything was fine, and she started to learn needlework again.
Chu Shuhuang doesn't dislike needlework, sometimes he is still very envious when he looks at those beautiful things sewn, but that requires complete calming and investing a lot of time. She is obviously not such a person, with her own intelligence, she also learns very well, but she can't talk about her skills.
Two days later, she received a special gift.
At noon on this day, Chu Shuhuang had just had lunch, and the little palace maid of Fengxiang Palace came to pass a message, saying that Wei Yan, the young lady in Prime Minister Wei's mansion, had sent her a New Year's gift, which was two pots of fragrant caryophyllus. Now the people are still waiting outside the palace gate, and the queen asks her to dispose of it herself.
Chu Shuhuang had no choice but to let Mama Lin go, and if there was nothing wrong, she would take it in.
Mama Lin went for half an hour before coming back, followed by a well-dressed mother-in-law, followed by four rough mothers-in-law, carrying two pots of red, bright, crisp, and delicate caryophyllus.
This fragrant carnation is actually a modern carnation, which originally grew in the Jiangnan area, and it bloomed in summer, I don't know how much Wei Yan put into it, but she actually saw it at this time.
Mama Lin asked her to place the fragrant caryophyllum on the side of the main hall first, and then took the mother-in-law into the flower hall next door to talk back to Chu Shuhuang.
"Say hello to Princess Shengping, Princess Chitose Chitose Chitose." The woman bowed and worshipped.
"Are you someone from Miss Wei's side?" Chu Shuhuang and Wei Yan are not familiar with each other, and Wei Yan only brought two maids when she entered the palace last time, so she didn't know this grandmother.
"Back to the princess, the slave maid is my girl's grandmother, and today I was ordered by my girl to send flowers to the princess, I hope the princess can like it."
Chu Shuhuang nodded, "Miss Wei's flowers are very good, I like this palace very much, Mama will go back to thank Miss Wei on behalf of this palace." ”
The grandmother was delighted when she heard this, and said, "The girl will be very happy to know that this flower can win the favor of Her Royal Highness the Princess." The girl said that the sword was given to the hero, and it was rare for this flower to bloom so beautifully, so it was naturally to give it to Her Royal Highness the princess to live up to it. The flowers must be folded, do not make the wrong flowering period, whether the princess is enjoying the flowers or wearing flowers. ”
Chu Shuhuang's eyes flashed, "The flowers bloom straight and must be folded, don't make the wrong flowering period, this is what Miss Wei said?" ”
"Yes, these words were said by the girl to the slave."
"Did Miss Wei say anything else?"
"Back to the princess, no."
Chu Shuhuang paused and said: "Miss Wei's flower palace has accepted it, you go back and tell your girl, and say that the palace will invite her to tea another day." ”
"Yes, the slave must have brought the princess's words."
Chu Shuhuang nodded at Mama Lin, and after the mother-in-law kowtowed and retreated, Mama Lin took out a red envelope and took her out.
The flowers can be folded straight, and the branches are broken without flowers. Even if Chu Shuhuang doesn't understand poetry, he knows that this is a sentence that was often used in his previous life to persuade people to cherish and cherish.
Is this what Wei Yan means too?
So which "flower" is she alluding to?
Fragrant caryophyllus, is it the purple bamboo garden of Huachang?
For Chu Shuhuang, a traverser, she thought of that possibility when Wei Yan reminded her last time. Now that it is found that Xu Shixuan has also crossed over, why is it impossible to speculate about Wei Yan?
It's time for her to meet Wei Yan.
After sorting out the messy thoughts, Chu Shuhuang had no intention of resting, and went to the study to practice the big characters for an hour, and it was already getting west.
Before she could catch her breath, the little palace maid of Fengxiang Palace came again, saying that the queen had invited her over. Chu Shuhuang straightened his clothes, drank two sips of tea, and took people over.
There was not only the queen in Fengxiang Palace, but also the eldest prince, and after seeing the ceremony, she sat on the other side of the queen.
"Is Huang'er okay?" In front of the queen, the eldest prince didn't dare to mention her injury, so he had to ask.
"Thank you Brother Huang for your concern, Huang'er is fine." Chu Shuhuang replied with a smile.
The eldest prince carefully looked at this more and more delicate sister, and saw that the queen had no meaning to speak, so he had to continue: "Someone asked the eldest brother to bring you a gift today, guess what?" ”
"Yo? That's interesting, and someone asked the eldest brother to bring me a gift, so it can't be a flower again, right? Chu Shuhuang teased indifferently.
The eldest prince's expression also became surprised, "Could it be that someone else also sent you flowers today?" ”
"Could it be that the eldest brother brought me a real flower?" Chu Shuhuang looked at the queen suspiciously, "Hurry up and let them find out what day it is, why are they all here to send flowers?" ”
The eldest prince also looked at the queen, and then asked, "Who gave you that flower?" ”
"Wei Yan in Prime Minister Wei's mansion said that she was a New Year's gift for me, and I have to invite her to tea when I go back." The latter sentence was said to the queen, and the province would not let her leave the palace at that time.
The eldest prince's eyes flashed, this little sister is not blessed, just pick it up, that person is not simple.
"Who gave the flowers that the eldest brother brought?" Chu Shuhuang asked.
The eldest prince has a lot of government affairs, so he didn't have time to play dumb riddles with her, and said bluntly: "It was Xu Shixuan who asked me to bring you two pots of flowers called Phalaenopsis, saying that I thank you for taking care of Jiang Li." As he spoke, he was brought in.
It was two pots of purple-red and purple-red phalaenopsis, held on top by lush leaves, like flocks of butterflies perched on slender flower branches, intense, elegant, charming and natural.
Chu Shuhuang was a little stunned, could it be that the pot of flowers that bloomed straight and had to be folded?
The queen was also attracted by these two pots of flowers, and couldn't help but take a closer look.
The flowers had already been brought, and the eldest prince stood up with a smile and said goodbye to the queen, then nodded at her and left.
Only the mother and daughter were left in the hall, and the two of them looked at each other carefully, and the queen asked, "Does Huang'er like this flower?" ”
"It's fine." Chu Shuhuang nodded and said.
"Then this person who sent flowers, does Huang'er like it?"
Chu Shuhuang didn't expect the queen to ask directly like this, and he was a little embarrassed for a while, "Queen Mother!" How can that be the same? ”
The queen sighed softly, took her hand and sat on the couch, "The male should marry, the female should marry, this is nothing to be ashamed of, Huang'er told the queen mother what kind of colt she wanted?" ”
