CHAPTER XXXI

"Why are you wearing light-colored clothes today?" Observing the people in the "Luo Courtyard", Xia Fenglan asked.

"What, doesn't Feng Lan like light-colored clothes?" Chu Yunxi looked Xia Fenglan up and down, "Indeed, plain clothes can't set off your brilliance, and when I turn around, I'll ask someone to make you a few gorgeous clothes." ”

"Feng Lan, that's not what I meant." Xia Fenglan's cheeks flushed, and she only felt that Chu Yunxi spoiled her too much, "It's just strange that today, everyone is plain." ”

"That's what the queen mother meant." Chu Yunxi smiled and said, "I said that I was afraid that the sisters would dress too brightly and cover up the color of the delicate flowers." ”

"This reason is a bit far-fetched." Xia Fenglan whispered.

"The queen mother's exquisite thoughts, who can guess it." Chu Yunxi smiled and said, "Feng Lan, didn't you want to say yesterday that you wanted to see the beauty Mei, let's go, I'll take you to have a look." Chu Yunxi took Xia Fenglan's hand and took her to the other side.

"Hmm." Xia Fenglan nodded and let Chu Yunxi lead her.

The beauty plum is gathered in a corner of the "Luo Yuan", the fiery red color is very good-looking.

"This beauty is unique." Xia Fenglan stroked the fiery red leaves of the beautiful plum, "It's actually a red leaf." ”

"Although the 'Luoyuan' is large, it can't collect flowers from all over the world after all." Chu Yunxi said, "I have heard that the royal family of the Qin State has flowers that change color every day. ”

"Is it really that amazing?" Xia Fenglan blinked and looked at Chu Yunxi.

Chu Yunxi nodded and said, "When everything settles down, I'll take you to Qin Country for a walk and see the rare varieties that 'Luoyuan' doesn't have." ”

"Then it's decided, you can't break your promise in the future." Xia Fenglan said.

"How have I ever broken my word to you?" A faint smile appeared in Chu Yunxi's eyes, "As long as you want it, I will do my best." ”

Xia Fenglan felt that her cheeks were a little hot, and she let out a soft "um".

"Concubine Li's arrival is here." Accompanied by the sharp business of the eunuch, a touch of bright color came into view. Concubine Li's brilliance was dazzling, and she compared everyone to it.

"I've seen Concubine Li." The crowd saluted.

"Get up." Concubine Li's voice was slightly lazy. glanced at everyone, and seeing that the queen had not yet arrived, Concubine Li said to the maid beside her, "Cailing, help the palace to sit in the pavilion at the back for a while." ”

"Yes." Cai Ling nodded and helped Concubine Li to the pavilion.

"Concubine Li's clothes are very gorgeous." Looking at Concubine Li's back, Xia Fenglan said.

"That's the streamer brocade of Luo Guo, when the year comes, my father also rewarded me with a few horses, if Feng Lan likes it, I will have someone cut you into clothes. When Feng Lan wears it, she must be a little more beautiful than Concubine Li. Chu Yunxi said.

"Still can't." Xia Fenglan shook her head and said, "Although it is good-looking, it is too eye-catching after all." ”

"It doesn't matter." Chu Yunxi chuckled, and said in Xia Fenglan's ear, "Just wear it in our own mansion and show it to me." I like to see Feng Lan shine brightly. ”

Xia Fenglan's cheeks were crimson, her eyes were lowered, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she whispered: "Hmm." "Silence.

"Don't bend again, you'll fall if you bend again." Chu Yunxi carefully supported Xia Fenglan's waist to prevent her from being careless and falling into the lake, "The lake water in winter is so cold, if you really fall down, you will definitely be sick for several days." ”

"I'm so careless." Xia Fenglan said.

"It's not that you're careless, I'm also worried about accidents." Chu Yunxi looked at Xia Fenglan, her eyes were full of pampering, "If you really want to see it, I'll let someone fold it for you." ”

Xia Fenglan hooked the back of Chu Yunxi's neck, stood up straight, and pointed not far away: "Okay, accompany me over there to see Jun Zilan." ”

Chu Yunxi nodded.

Jun Zilan was in front of the pavilion, and when she approached the pavilion, she inadvertently glanced at the surrounding trees, and Xia Fenglan's eyes were full of surprise: "Xi, look there!" ”

A lot of peach trees were planted around the pavilion where Concubine Li was, and the branches that were originally dry up somehow bloomed peach blossoms. In the eyes of everyone, one after another opened up.

There was silence all around, and everyone was shocked by the sight of peach blossoms in full bloom.

Concubine Li looked at the peach blossoms in full bloom, and her face suddenly became ugly, in the past, around this pavilion, there were no peach trees planted at all! The peach blossoms are in full bloom in winter, which is clearly a strange omen, she makes people calculate!

"CRBT, Fubengong Leave!" Concubine Li immediately got up, she knew that she would definitely not be able to stay here any longer.

"Your Majesty, the Queen has arrived!" With the thought of the eunuch's voice, a touch of bright yellow appeared in everyone's eyes.

The pavilion was at the end of the Luo Courtyard, and the emperor saw the peach blossoms in full bloom at a glance, as well as the extraordinarily dazzling Concubine Li in the center of the pavilion.

"It's ...... What's going on! Rao, a well-informed emperor, was also taken aback by the scene at this moment.

"The peach tree has the ability to ward off evil spirits." The queen frowned and said, "Now that the peach blossoms are in full bloom, it is really a strange omen." ”

"I heard that Mrs. Xia was changed by a mountain spirit." A young lady from a family opened her mouth, seemingly in a low voice, but it just happened to be able for the emperor to hear, "Concubine Li, isn't it Mrs. Xia's sister?" ”

"A few days ago, I went to Xia Mansion and found that Xia adults had lost a lot of weight, and they always looked tired."

"How is Mrs. Xia?"

"I look a lot younger."

The emperor's footsteps paused, remembering his state in recent days. Looking at Concubine Li's eyes, something changed. Indeed, compared with the people around her, Concubine Li's glamour is already beyond ordinary people.

When the queen saw it, there was a triumphant smile in her eyes.

Concubine Li suddenly understood what the queen meant, her sister was rumored to be a spirit, and there was a strange omen around her, didn't this lead the emperor to suspect that she was also a spirit!

"The queen mother is ruthless." Chu Yunxi raised her eyebrows and said in Xia Fenglan's ear.

"The peach blossoms are in full bloom, don't you feel weird?" Xia Fenglan asked. Even though he had already guessed that it was the queen's plan, he still felt a little chill in his heart when he saw such a scene.

"Knowing how to do it, there's nothing to be afraid of." Chu Yunxi smiled and said, "Feng Lan wants to know if you want to know, how did you do this?" ”

"Yes." Xia Fenglan nodded and said.

"Then you kiss me, and I'll sue you." Chu Yunxi pointed to the left side of his face.

"It's out there!" Xia Fenglan glared at Chu Yunxi, her whole face flushed.

"No one will notice here." Chu Yunxi smiled and said, "Besides, there are so many trees in the way." ”

Xia Fenglan looked around and found that everyone's eyes were focused on Concubine Li and the emperor. Standing on tiptoe, he quickly pecked Chu Yunxi's cheek, and then immediately lowered his head.

Chu Yunxi touched the left side of his face, and a smile appeared in his eyes. looked at the tips of Xia Fenglan's red ears and chuckled.

"Raise your head, and I'll sue you." Feng Lan didn't let her look at it every time she blushed, but she just liked to see Feng Lan's shy appearance.

Xia Fenglan hesitated for a long time, but still raised her head.

On the fair cheeks, two blush floated. There was a hint of accusation in his clear eyes.

Chu Yunxi couldn't help but caress Xia Fenglan's cheek.

Xia Fenglan slapped away her messy hand and glared at her.

Chu Yunxi coughed lightly, stopped teasing, and whispered: "In this, in fact, you just need to use catalytic powder." ”

"Catalytic powder, what is it?" Xia Fenglan asked.

"This is a special thing made by the Qin State, which can make any flower open instantly, but in the time of a cup of tea, it will wither and be short-lived." Chu Yunxi said.

As if to confirm Chu Yunxi's words, the peach blossoms that had bloomed bewitching before withered and withered in an instant.

Concubine Li was stunned for a moment, then put away the expression on her face. Snorted coldly, if the queen thought that she could be brought down with this, it would be naΓ―ve.

"Your Majesty, do you like the arrangement of the concubines?" Concubine Li smiled and slowly walked out of the pavilion, "The concubine specially asked people to find catalytic powder, so that the emperor can see the peach blossoms in winter." "Being able to sit firmly on the throne of the emperor's concubine for so many years, Concubine Li is naturally not a vegetarian. After a little thought, I understood the key to it. Although catalytic powder is rare, it doesn't mean she doesn't know!

Concubine Li said as she smiled triumphantly at the queen.

Hearing what Concubine Li said, the emperor also remembered that there was still catalytic powder in the Qin Kingdom, and his eyes when he looked at Concubine Li eased slightly. He has been sharing the same bed with Concubine Li for so many years, if Concubine Li is really a monster, how can he live until now.

"I like the pastries in your palace very much." Since he misunderstood Concubine Li, he naturally wanted to make amends, and the emperor said, "I wonder if I can still eat it today?" ”

"As long as the emperor likes it, he can do it anytime." Concubine Li smiled and took the emperor's arm.

The sun was setting, and the people enjoying the flowers dispersed one by one.

"Feng Lan hasn't seen enough?" Looking at Xia Fenglan's reluctant gaze, Chu Yunxi asked.

"It's a little." Xia Fenglan said regretfully.

"I called you a long time ago, don't stay in a place for too long." Chu Yunxi scratched Xia Fenglan's nose, her eyes were full of pampering, "You don't listen." ”

"There are too many good-looking, Feng Lan, I can't see it." Xia Fenglan said.

"It's rare to have something that Feng Lan likes so much, so let's stay for a while." Chu Yunxi said.

"The palace gate will soon be keyed." Xia Fenglan pushed Chu Yunxi and said, "If you don't leave, you won't be able to get out." ”

"Then I won't go out." Chu Yunxi chuckled, wrapped his arms around Xia Fenglan's waist, and said to Jin Ci, "You go and clean up the 'Xiyun Palace' first, and this king and princess will stay in the palace tonight." It's been a long time since I've been in the Xiyun Palace, and I've missed it a little. ”

"Xiyun Palace" is the palace where she has been living when she was still a princess.

"Now, you can enjoy the flowers with peace of mind." Looking at Xia Fenglan, a touch of tenderness appeared in Chu Yunxi's eyes.

"Hmm." Xia Fenglan nodded and leaned on Chu Yunxi's shoulder.

"Your Royal Highness, just now the palace people came to report, and the emperor fainted in Concubine Li's palace." Jin Ci said.

"Oh?" Chu Yunxi raised her eyebrows, "Did something happen?" ”

"It's not clear yet." Jin Ci shook his head and said, "But I've already alarmed a lot of imperial doctors." ”

"Sure enough, it's a good show." Chu Yunxi bowed his head and said to Xia Fenglan, "It seems that it is difficult to be peaceful in the palace tonight." Feng Lan, let's go back with me for dinner first, I will make trouble for a while, but I am afraid that I will not be able to eat. ”
