Chapter 23 Annex
In the afternoon, the breeze was gentle, and a small sedan chair quietly arrived in front of the quiet Anle Mansion. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The plainly dressed sedan chair driver handed over Huang Cancan's waist card and whispered a few words.
The doorman immediately looked respectful and bent down to salute. And led the palanquin man to the courtyard, the courtyard is deep, and the vertical and horizontal paths shade the sun, which is very good to hide the summer flames. Turn around several courtyards, pass through the moon cave door hidden under the big locust tree, look at it, the deep flower red, the shallow layer of leaf green, the flower fragrance is pleasant, and the heart is relaxed. Deep in the flowers is Zhang Yuxia's small courtyard Biwu Garden.
The courtyard door was hidden, and there was silence inside.
The doorman knocked lightly, Kwai Lan came out, Ying Ying smiled lightly, "It turned out to be the little fifth brother, what are you doing here?" ”
When he turned his eyes, he saw a strange man standing next to him, and saw that although he was dressed plainly, he was handsome, with a high nose and wide lips, and he had a heroic spirit that stood up to the sky.
While thinking about it, Xiao Wu spoke, "This eldest brother was sent by the emperor to pick up the eldest lady to the palace. ”
It turned out to be someone from the palace, no wonder this person's temperament is so unusual. Kwai Lan couldn't help but take another look at the man, but the man was also looking up at her. The eyes of the two met, Kwai Lan only felt that the ground in front of her was bright, and she was embarrassed at the moment, as if she had done something bad and was caught, so she hurriedly staggered her eyes to look elsewhere. Kwai Lan's shyness fell in the man's eyes, his face tightened, but there was a smile in his eyes.
Kwai Lan's face was red, and before she could reply, she turned around and ran back to the house.
Zhang Yuxia was at the desk, quietly tracing. Seeing Kwai Lan's uncertain appearance, she said angrily, "Kwai Lan, in broad daylight, what are you panicking about?" ”
Kwai Lan secretly sighed a few times, stabilized her expression and said, "Congratulations, Miss, the emperor's palanquin is waiting outside the mansion, and it is here to pick up Miss into the palace." ”
"......" Zhang Yuxia was stunned, her mind was blank, her posture froze there, and her right arm holding the quills was frozen in the middle and could not be retracted.
"Miss, what are you doing in a daze? Dress up quickly. Don't let the emperor wait long. Kwai Zhi was cautious, and hurriedly stepped forward to take down the brush in Zhang Yuxia's hand, and pulled her to sit in front of the dresser.
Kwai Lan and a few little girls rummaged through the cabinets, busy looking for bright dresses.
"No need to change it. Aoi Zhi can help me comb a simple double screw bun. Zhang Yuxia frowned slightly and said lightly.
"Moon white? Too plain, right? Miss, seeing that the emperor has to be more solemn. Kwai Lan looked at the simple dress on Zhang Yuxia's body, shaking her head and frowning, her face full of inappropriateness.
"Let's take a closer look at Miss, it's pretty good to wear this. The ladies in the palace are full of flowers, and they are not as beautiful as our young lady. As people say, 'clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving'. Aoi Zhi combed her hair in a bun and praised it.
"Sister, when did you also learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting with Miss? I can recite poems and lyrics. Kwai Lan said happily.
"you, you don't know how to grow, and you just want to play all day long." Aoizhi's face turned red and scolded.
Kwai Zhi is ingenious, only a moment of effort, the bright and clean hair will be combed out of a unique beauty, embellished with a few fulcrums of emerald, the side of the insertion of a golden step, the whole person radiant, charming and moving.
Kwai Zhi took out the rouge and lightly blurred, so that the cheeks were polished like a newly opened Qionghua, white and red. The long black eyebrows seem to be painted rather than painted. A pair of eyes are full of longing and light, rippling with noble charm.
"Miss is really beautiful, the slave and maid are envious when they see it, let alone a lustful and lustful man." Kwai Lan said shamelessly.
Zhang Yuxia was angry and pretended to hit her, but Kwai Lan cleverly hid to the side. Aoi Zhi and the others laughed and were silent.
*************************
Through the gap in the sedan curtain, Zhang Yuxia watched the willow trees on the side of the road fall backwards one by one, the afternoon sun is still a little poisonous, so there are not many pedestrians on the road, and one or two pass by the side of the sedan car from time to time.
After watching it for a while, it's really boring. Thinking that she would be able to see the emperor in a while, Zhang Yuxia's little heart couldn't help but be excited, and she was faintly a little impatient. Turning his mind around, his face was suddenly full of red glow, his lips were pursed, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he picked out a very beautiful arc.
The sedan chair slowly stopped, "Miss Zhang, it's here." The voice was deep and deep, and Zhang Yuxia could tell that it was the voice of the young sedan chair man Li De.
Kwai Zhi opened the sedan curtain with one hand, and supported Zhang Yuxia to get off the sedan chair with the other.
"Where is this?" Zhang Yuxia looked around, and the capital not far away was in full view. Is this the outskirts of the city? I saw the grass under my feet, and on the side, the jubilant sound of water in the moat penetrated into my ears. Hidden in the leafy bamboo forest on the shore is a large courtyard that is not a little deep.
Li Dezuo shook his head and said, "Please Miss Zhang, please move, the emperor is already waiting in the courtyard." ”
Zhang Yuxia bowed slightly, and the lotus step moved slightly. There was a little more joy in her heart, she didn't expect that the emperor, who had a lot of opportunities, would have the ingenuity to have such a courtyard away from the noise, which seemed to have a slight sense of luxury.
She was originally a quiet character, but when she saw the unique seclusion here, and thought that the emperor was in it at the moment, her little heart was restless again.
Entering the gate, the eyelids are greeted by a very wide wall, and on the left side is the dexterous and delicate moon cave door, just like the format of ordinary people's homes, with a little more market atmosphere, and the plain place flows warmly.
Turning through the moon cave gate, I suddenly saw that the emperor was in front of me.
The Emperor smiled narrowly, and looked at her for a moment.
She paused and stood there stunned. She didn't expect the emperor to be in the courtyard, such a hot day.
When I looked closely, I saw that the emperor was already another handsome son, dressed in an ice blue satin robe, and the inside of the robe revealed was a silver trim embroidered with elegant bamboo leaf patterns. He wears a jade belt around his waist and holds an ivory folding fan. The chin is slightly raised, and the noble and extraordinary temperament is natural. The narrow eyes shimmered, shining like a galaxy of stars.
The emperor looked at her, and saw that she was wearing a moon-white pleated skirt, but the elegance was a little more dusty, and the wide skirt was behind her, which set off her coquettishness. A simple bun with a hairpin is lightly embellished to add clarity. The beautiful eyes are full of color, the red lips are full, and there is a gentle smile.
"There are beautiful women in the north, peerless and independent." The emperor's red lips opened lightly and nodded in praise.
Zhang Yuxia came back to her senses from greed and hurriedly knelt down to say goodbye.
The emperor stretched out his big hand, shook her slender jade hand, and gently took her away.
The hot breath in the emperor's hand burned down her fingertips into her heart, and her heart stopped beating for a moment, and then beat irregularly, as if after the baptism of the summer wind and rain, her mind was cloudy and clear. There is no deliberate memory, there is no need to think about anything, and there is no mood at all.
The whole person is frightened but sweet.
