The county lord of Zhaohua glanced at Biyun, and said with a smile: "Your ears are upside down." ”

Seeing that the county lord of Zhaohua had already eaten his share of the crystal cake, Biyun handed her the portion that he hadn't touched and said, "Is that true?" ”

Zhaohua pointed at Biyun with the small silver spoon in his hand and smiled: "Are you bribing the county lord?" Then he whispered: "So many people have died this autumn, and it is time to pay a good sacrifice - the queen mother is nervous." In previous years, it was just a rehearsal for the maiko in the palace, and the people from the royal branch accompanied the sacrifice. This year, the queen mother meant to invite the courtiers to participate in the sacrifice. One is to show grandeur, and the other is to reflect the emperor's grace. Among them, there is an ice dance, which is fun and beautiful, and those who are willing to participate will report it and wait for the queen's decision...... The will will come down in a few days. ”

The number of dead people is not the reason for the great sacrifice, but the special identity of the dead is the reason for the sacrifice, right? When the emperor's two brothers were killed, how could he be at peace without sacrifices?

Weiwan just thought about it in her heart, of course she couldn't say it, she helped Qingyun cut the crystal cake into small pieces, and told Qingyun: "Eat slowly, beware of choking, although this thing is delicious, it is difficult to restrain it, don't eat too much for a while." Then he asked Biyun, "What is Ice Dance?" ”

As soon as Biyun was about to speak, the county lord of Zhaohua hurriedly said: "I just wore a special kind of skates, and then I wore a beautiful dance costume to slide and dance on the ice." Every year on the Laba Festival, we have to dance. The original intention was to worship the gods and ancestors and pray for the blessing of the country and the prosperity of the people, but the ice dance was beautiful and fun, but I forgot the original intention, and only used it as entertainment. Every year, during the Laba Festival, those maiko wear masks on their faces and wear skates to dance on the ice, and they dance as if they are floating in the clouds and mist, which is very beautiful. In previous years, it was just the royal children dancing on the ice after the sacrifice, which meant to get rid of the disease. This year, the courtiers and dependents other than the royal family were invited, which shows the grace of the saint. Sister Wan, you are graceful, you must try it too. ”

Wei Wan listened to it and felt that skating with Beiyan was an activity.

The climate in Beiyan is relatively cold, and there is ice and snow for half a year, and people regard skating and skiing as part of their daily activities. His elder brother Yan Yu is a master of ice skating, but Wan has learned from his brother.

can listen to the meaning of the county lord of Zhaohua, in the middle of the Zhou Dynasty, it seems that only nobles can learn this skill. If Wei Wan said that he would, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of the county lord of Zhaohua, in case he had doubts about her life experience, it would be bad, so he said: "If you say this, I will learn, but I am afraid that I will be clumsy and will not learn." ”

The county lord of Zhaohua patted his chest: "I won't teach you, if I can't, and your Biyun lady, she is a master." ”

Biyun didn't speak, there was a faint reserve on the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, but he really had the calm demeanor of a master.

A few people gossiped again, and Zizhi, the girl in Mrs. Li's house, came to her: "The princess said that it is late today, please go to the county lord's house, and come back to play tomorrow when she is free." ”

The county lord of Zhaohua took his leave.

After the county lord of Zhaohua left, Biyun also led Qingyun to leave. Weiwan asked Pan Zi to cut a large piece of dragon and phoenix crystal cake and let Qingyun take it, so she sent the two sisters out.

When Dongfang Yi came back in the evening, Weihuan told him about Princess Wanhua. Dongfang Yi was also very happy for Wanhua, and when he talked about the surprise of the county lord of Zhaohua that the khan was not an old man, Dongfang Yi laughed: "Zhaohua is really a little girl's idea!" Chaozhong has long known that Jielisa Khan is only twenty-eight years old, how can he be an old man! looks like Lao Jie, and he should also be a majestic beautiful man...... Don't say that he treats Wanhua well, it's just not good, Wanhua is so smart and beautiful, as long as she is willing, the khan will not be able to escape her grasp sooner or later. ”

Wei Wan smiled: "Still mastered? Are you men mallets......"

Suddenly felt that these words were easy to make people have charming and fragrant associations, and did not feel red-faced, secretly looked at Dongfang Yi, and saw that he was looking at himself with a bad smile, and said angrily: "Don't laugh!" ”

Dongfang Yi grabbed Wei Huan's little hand and led her to touch herself, and said with a smile: "...... Look at your little hand, you can hold me......"

Wei Wan was embarrassed and pushed him hard, but she didn't want her strength to be like an ant shaking a tree, she didn't push Dongfang Yi away, but her body was already held in his arms......

The next day, Zhu Changzai came to pass on the queen's message, asking the courtiers and ministers to report their names if they were willing to participate in the Laba Festival.

For a time, the courtiers liked to participate in the royal festival, which was the grace of the saint, how could there be no active participation?

Dongfang Yi knew that Weiwan could skate, so he asked people to use good deerskin skates. "Go and inquire about the aunts and aunts of Houfu and Sunfu, are you going? If you go, you will make shoes together. Otherwise, the good shoemakers will be booked and no one will be found. ”

Weiwan sent Pan Zi and Bihuan to Jinghou Mansion and Ruiying's husband's house to ask Lang Sun's house respectively.

Pan Zi, who went to Jinghou Mansion, came back and said: "The old lady said that Qi Niangzi is a person who doesn't like to move, Han Niang is still young, the old lady thinks about it herself, but when she thinks that a group of flowery girls have her half of the, others don't say it, and she will be ashamed to death, so she can't go." ”

Wei Wan smiled: "Where is my mother old?" He looks younger than some young women in their early twenties. ”

Thinking about this ice play, she should have a light body, flexible hands and feet, after all, Mrs. Zhuang is nearly forty years old, in case she falls and touches it, good things will become bad things, and it is good not to participate.

Bihuan came back, and as soon as they met, she congratulated Weihuan: "Congratulations, madam." Mrs. Sun diagnosed the happy pulse. ”

Weiwan was surprised and delighted, and personally brought gifts to congratulate in the car.

After returning home, he said to Dongfang Yi: "Rui Ying is actually here so soon." We were married at the same time......"

Dongfang Yi was lying on the bed reading a book, and when he heard this, he lost the book, and pulled Weihuan into his arms seriously: "We also work hard to have a ......."

Angry, she slammed on his broad shoulder.

In Dongfang Yi's view, it is beating, scolding, and love, which increases the mood, and is a little more enthusiastic than before.

Within a few days, the people who attended the royal sacrifice were booked, mostly young children and young women of courtiers' families.

On the ninth day of the first month of winter, the queen sent an edict to let the people who had been scheduled to participate in the sacrifice enter the palace three days later, and gather at the edge of the Taiye Pond at the beginning of the year.

On the twelfth day of the winter month, just after breakfast, Pan Zi packed up Weihuan's clothes, teapot, red clay stove and other things, plus a change of clothes, and put a big burden on people, and asked people to send them to the car, also called apricot powder: "Go and see if Biyun Lady is ready?" If you are ready, tell Biyun Lady that Mrs. will wait for her to enter the palace together. ”

Xing Fan picked the curtain and just went out, so she turned around and said happily: "Biyun Lady is here!" ”

Wei Wan greeted her out, and as soon as she arrived at the porch, she saw that among the snow and cypress, Biyun and her personal maid Cha Xiang were walking in from the moon gate.
