100 peaches
There is a large peach forest in the back mountain of the Great Power Temple, and the peaches are ripe in July on weekdays, but there is a peach forest in the back mountain of the Great Power Temple because of the proximity to the hot springs, and the peaches are ripe every year to be a month in the morning.
Now it is not yet the Midyear Festival, and the peach forest is already full of fruits, most of which have not yet ripened, and they are all green fruits, but some of them have taken on a faint pink, covering the verdant green leaves, which are especially cute and lovely.
Yingluo and Qin Yan shuttled through the peach forest, and before they left, Lu Zhong greeted them, and greeted Yingluo first, and then saluted Qin Yan and said, "Uncle." ”
Qin Yan nodded, and Yingluo said, "Uncle Lu will lead the way." ”
Lu Zhong also bought Yingluo when he was in Suizhou earlier, he is old, skilled, and calm, Yingluo has set up several shops and granges outside, all of which are under Lu Zhong's control.
This time the matter involved the return of the abolished prince to Beijing, Yingluo originally wanted to hand it over to Qin Yan's people to do it, but Qin Yan said that it was okay, just let her rest assured to arrange it. Yingluo handed over the matter to Lu Zhong, Lu Zhong took Yingluo and the two of them to the depths of the peach forest for a while, then stopped, his eyes were a little burning, pointed to a peach tree in front of him, and said: "The old slave inquired, these peach trees in front of me ripen early every year, so he chose the peach on these trees, that is, the prince and the princess of the world, please." ”
Yingluo nodded, holding Qin Yan's hand and walked over, the two stopped under the tree and looked up, Qin Yan's eyes were poisonous, and at a glance he saw a few peaches that were obviously abnormal between the branches and leaves, and those peaches were obviously almost ripe, but what attracted people's attention was not this, but a few faint words could be seen on the peaches, Qin Yan squinted his eyes and looked closely, and the words on several peaches were connected together to be Dongfeng innocent, innocent and wronged.
And the word of the abolished prince is taken from the word Yunfeng, Dongfeng is innocent, and after a little thought, he knows that he is talking about the abolished prince of the East Palace, and the abolished prince was abolished and exiled because of the witch Gu case.
Qin Yan's heart jumped, and he went up to the peach tree with a move, carefully raised his hand to touch one of the peaches with the words, touched the handwriting on it with his hand, rubbed it a few times and saw that the words were intact, he couldn't help but be surprised, he didn't dare to touch it more, for fear of breaking the peach, jumped off the tree, and pulled Yingluo with a surprised face: "Sure enough, as you said, that word was born on the top, and it can't be erased!" It's like a real warning from heaven, how did it happen? It's amazing. ”
Yingluo glanced at Lu Zhong and said, "What's this, don't say it's these eight peaches, so that this mountain of peach forests is full of words, it's not a difficult thing." Earlier, I asked Uncle Lu to discuss with the Great Dao Temple, and bought this piece of peach forest, just thinking that the peaches here are ripe earlier than the next place, and then use my unique Xiao family calligraphy to make each peach grow auspicious characters, and the peaches will be sold at a sky-high price in the capital at that time. Now that this method of generating words has been used in this way, it can no longer be used to generate auspicious words and use it to earn silver. ”
Qin Yan saw Yingluo's look of pity and pain, he didn't feel funny, hugged Yingluo and said, "Little wealth fan, how much silver can be sold for a few baskets of peaches." ”
Yingluo felt that Qin Yan really didn't know how to do general affairs, like this kind of peach with words, she just had to do a good job of secrecy, so as not to let people know how the words were grown, and she didn't want to get a lot of peaches with new words a year, only twenty or thirty peaches, and took them to the city to bid.
There are so many rich and noble people in the capital, who doesn't want to occupy the word auspicious, just like twenty or thirty peaches a year, you can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver, sell them for a few years, it is also a lot of money, and you don't need to spend any manpower and material resources.
But now she can't, but thinking of the abolition of the prince returning to Beijing and becoming an emperor in the future, Yingluo can only endure the pain and cut her flesh.
"The method of writing words is actually very simple, just use thick paper to cut out the shape of the word, and then carefully glue it to the peach. The peach relies on the sunlight to complete the color change, so that the place where the sticker paper can't shine, the color of nature and the next place is different day by day, and the paper is torn up, and the word grows on it. I'm afraid that this word is too clear, but it shows traces of artificiality, so I asked Lu Zhong to remove the sticker a few days ago, and when the midyear festival is two days later, the peach will grow for a few more days, and the word can be more blurred, more like a natural growth. I only told Lu Zhong for this method, from before, this peach forest has already been guarded by the dead soldiers you sent, and the peaches are taken care of by Lu Zhong himself, so no one will know that the words are artificial, and in the middle of the year, just send the peaches to the saint. ”
Yingluo explained it to Qin Yan carefully, Qin Yan suddenly realized, hugged Yingluo and kissed her on the cheek, and said: "Master's Jiaojiao is really whimsical, although this method is simple, but if you don't hear it, you can't think of it even if you want to break your scalp." Ye has to be assisted by such a good wife, what are you worried about? Although this peach forest was bought, it is close to the Great Power Temple, let's leave quickly, so as not to be seen and cause trouble. ”
Yingluo felt that Qin Yan was clearly still thinking about the reward she had said before, and seized an opportunity to persuade her to go home, but they were really not suitable to stay here for a long time, so she couldn't help glaring at Qin Yan and followed him down the mountain.
The two entered the city, and it was already evening. Yingluo refused to go back to the house, so she asked Qin Yan to take her to the restaurant for dinner.
The two went directly to the medicinal dining building, sat down in the Accord on the second floor, and were waiting for the food to be served, but they heard someone outside mention the events of the Jingwang Mansion in the past two days.
"I heard that Princess Jing personally took the car to Qiyang Palace, to make amends early this morning, if the matter of worshipping ancestors is nothing to do with her, can she be so low?"
"What I said is that what Zhao Concubine did evil, it can disturb the ancestors, what good can it do to Zhao Concubine, even if the prince of King Jing has something bad, it is the two sons of King Jing's step-concubine who get cheap, and the son of Concubine Zhao also wants to get involved."
"Heh, this Princess Jing has such a low profile, I think Bacheng has been found out of something, just for the face of the palace, and she has never said it to the public."
……
Several ladies were invited to come out to eat medicinal food together, and it was next to the Accord where Yingluo and Qin Yan were, and the sound insulation effect of the Accord was average, and the sound came vaguely.
Yingluo listened to what a few people said about the heat, unconsciously raised her eyebrows, hooked her lips and smiled.
This is the same development she expected, and the reason why she forced Princess Jing to bow down and go to the Qiyang Palace was to make people guess Princess Jing.
is like what these ladies said, if Princess Ranjing didn't do anything, why did she bow down and be a little wronged herself, and why did she bow to her daughter-in-law as a mother-in-law?
Now even if Concubine Zhao is in trouble, I believe that many people suspect Princess Jing.
The city is full of wind and rain, and the good reputation that Princess Jing has built for many years is in jeopardy, and she deliberately provokes Princess Jing, so she doesn't believe that if Princess Jing is really a treacherous person, she can still calm down.
As long as she can't hold her breath, she will always show her feet.
Yingluo listened to the gossip and had dinner happily, and then quietly returned to the Qiyang Palace with Qin Yan.
The two went out for a day, naturally they went to the millennium courtyard to greet Tang, when the two arrived, King Qiyang and Xiao Chenglin were also there, and after a meeting and sat down, Tang said about Princess Jing's visit in the morning, and said: "Princess Jing said that she will come again tomorrow, and tomorrow is the official return day, so she will accompany her grandmother at home, and don't go out." ”
Yingluo also knew that if Princess Jing was too bad, it would be impossible to speak, and what was reasonable would become unreasonable, and she didn't plan to avoid Princess Jing tomorrow, so she nodded and said, "Yes, we all listen to grandmother." ”
Xiao Chenglin, who was sitting next to him, stood up and said, "Ming'er is my sister's return to the door, there is something that I originally planned to say to my sister on the day my sister returned to the door, but everyone happened to be there today, so I said it in advance." ”
Seeing Xiao Chenglin's solemn expression, Yingluo couldn't help but look at Xiao Chenglin directly, and said, "Sister, I have begged my grandfather, and I will leave the house in a few days to go to the northern military camp to experience, and my grandfather and grandmother have already agreed." Ming'er and I stayed with my sister for a day, and when I left in the future, I stopped saying hello to my sister. ”
Yingluo was stunned for a while, and she really didn't understand why her younger brother had the idea of leaving home just two days after she got married.
She blinked and looked at Tang, who was looking at Xiao Chenglin with a loving and helpless expression, and nodded at Yingluo when she saw Yingluo coming over.
She did agree, and she had to agree.
Even if she favors Xiao Chenglin again, she also knows that if he wants to support the future of Qiyang Palace, he must go to the battlefield to sharpen it, and Xiao Chenglin is twelve years old this year, which is indeed not small.
Xiao Chenglin's father, the prince of Qiyang, was thrown into the military camp by King Qiyang when he was seven or eight years old, and King Qiyang had this plan before, saying that Xiao Chenglin was studying with a martial arts master at home all day long, and wanted to send Xiao Chenglin to the barracks. Only how the Tang family is willing, how the previous two sons are not, the Tang family can't forget.
If Xiao Chenglin is unambitious and not aggressive, the Tang family can keep him by his side for selfishness.
But now that Xiao Chenglin has his own heart, and the child wants to be motivated by himself, how can the Tang family stop him? She saw that Xiao Chenglin had an idea on her own, and she had made up her mind.
Wang Lao Huai of Qiyang was relieved and even more happy to see it happen. At this time, Xiao Chenglin said this, but Yingluo was shocked, and always felt that Xiao Chenglin was still a child, and when he went to the barracks, he couldn't say anything, in case there was any war, he couldn't huddle in the barracks, but the battlefield was blind......
Her face changed slightly, she looked at Xiao Chenglin, and said, "Why did you suddenly have such thoughts?" Wouldn't it be good to wait for another two years, when you learn kung fu more solidly, and you go back to the barracks, my grandmother and I can rest assured. Or let my grandfather say hello and train for two years in a few military camps on the outskirts of Beijing......"
Before she finished speaking, Xiao Chenglin stepped forward and took Yingluo's hand, interrupting her and said: "Actually, I have had this idea for a long time, I just want to send my sister to marry and then put it into action, and now that my sister has my brother-in-law to take care of me, I can leave with peace of mind." Rest assured, sister, I will take care of myself. ”
Yingluo saw that the overall situation had been decided, and Xiao Chenglin's attitude was very resolute, so she didn't persuade her more, but only carefully instructed Xiao Chenglin on various trivial matters after leaving home.
It was day and night, Qin Yan thought of Yingluo's reward today, and after returning to Feixue Courtyard, he sat on the circle chair near the window and played with a jade handle, looking out of the window from time to time.
Seeing that the sky outside was getting darker a little, my heart was full of joy.
Yingluo sat cross-legged on the beauty couch next to her, wiping the water droplets on her body for the stupid gray rabbit she brought back today, Qin Yan suddenly got up, but she was startled, and looked blankly, and saw Qin Yan's eyes burning over and said, "The rabbits have taken a bath, daughter-in-law, should we also go and wash?" ”
Yingluo was stunned again when she heard this, looked out, and saw that the sky had just darkened, so she shook her head and said, "You go first, you sweat a lot today, but I'm fine, I'll let someone prepare water for you." ”
As he spoke, a maid outside answered and was busy.
Qin Yan looked at the rabbit who was wiped on Yingluo's lap with disgust, sat down next to him, and even picked up Yingluo with the rabbit, and made her sit on her lap, then rubbed Yingluo with the tip of his nose and said, "You accompany your master." ”
His breath came to his face, and his voice was still a little coquettish, Yingluo's face turned a little red, and said: "What do you think, in my mother's house, you don't restrain yourself, carefully grandfather plucked your skin!" Don't make a fuss, go! ”
Yingluo said and pushed down Qin Yan, but her expression was infinitely coquettish, Qin Yan hugged her unconsciously and said: "Grandfather can't take care of the sexual affairs of our husband and wife, besides, you will know what, our husband and wife have a good relationship, the plaice is deep, and the grandfather and grandmother are only happy." ”
Although he said this, he also knew that he was now a guest in the Qiyang Palace, and there were so many maids and women in the courtyard, and the husband and wife couldn't hide any movement from people at all, and the trouble was too great, and Yingluo inevitably looked bad.
Knowing that she wouldn't let it go by her own will, Qin Yan didn't force it anymore, and kissed Yingluo again, and when he heard that the clean room over there was ready, he let go of Yingluo and went in to bathe by himself.
He was worried about things in his heart, and hurriedly freshened up and went out of the clean room, but found that Yingluo was no longer in the house, and couldn't help but be stunned, and was about to find someone, when a grandmother's voice sounded outside, and said: "The princess wants to take advantage of the young master's absence to personally add two summer clothes to the young master, and this time the princess will personally go to the front yard to measure the size of the young master, and let the slave and maid say to the prince." ”
Qin Yan's face turned black when he heard this, and he barely suppressed the depression, and snorted.
The mother-in-law outside retreated, Qin Yanwu stood by himself for a moment, then sighed and picked up the book casually while lying on the side of the bed, flipping through the others, who knew that the pages of the book on his side were about to be turned over, but the courtyard was still quiet, there was no movement at all, Yingluo dared not come back!
Qin Yan suddenly lost the book, and his face turned completely dark.
Say a good reward!
Besides, she hasn't even measured or dressed his husband yet! Why did his woman run to give Xiao Chenglin's stinky boy a tailor?
The more Qin Yan thought about it, the more he felt that he was really wise and decisive, and he really should have pushed Xiao Chenglin's kid to leave early!
The more he thought about it, the more unpleasant it became, and he couldn't turn the book anymore, so he suddenly got up, threw the book and went to pull the coat hanging next to him, ready to go to the front yard to find someone.
But at this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, it was Yingluo who came back, Qin Yan's eyes lit up, he thought about it, turned over and got on the bed, first lay flat, and after thinking about it, he turned over again, and lay down with his back to the bed.
Soon the mother-in-law's voice of greeting was heard outside, and the sound of footsteps sounded, and Qin Yan heard Yingluo enter the house.
He lay down without moving, but pricked up his ears and did not let go of a sound, Yingluo didn't seem to expect him to fall asleep, his steps suddenly became lighter, and he turned around and shouted at the maid, and sent them all out.
Then Qin Yan listened to Yingluo's footsteps and leaned over, getting closer and closer to the bed step by step, Qin Yan hooked the corners of his lips, and his heart was cold, and he knew that he would coax him when he came back, which was not bad.
Who knew that Yingluo's footsteps had obviously arrived in front of the bed, but suddenly he didn't come to the bed, but went to the cabinet, and then he heard the sound of her selecting leather, and whispered to Miao Brother to move several pieces of cloth out, and said: "These are all rewarded by the grandmother before, and they were not put in the dowry, but I think that I will occasionally come back to live in the future, maybe I can use it, I look at this snow-green, purple, brown and green are good, you look at the pattern of this horse, made into a round-necked robe, and the younger brother is wearing a quasi-spiritual ......"
"The young master has white skin, these colors are very compatible, this bamboo green is refreshing, and it can be used as a set of obscene clothes and pants." Brother Miao's voice came in small pieces.
Then Yingluo said again: "Cheng, these horses will be moved to the outhouse first, let's discuss slowly, wake up the prince carefully, and go." ”
As he spoke, the sound of footsteps came, and soon the bead curtain in the inner room rang, and Yingluo actually took Brother Miao out!
Qin Yan's fists suddenly clenched, and he suddenly sat up from the bed, his face could no longer be described as dark.
