Chapter Ninety-Nine: Danger (3)
In the morning, Yuqiao woke up, the screen window was dark green, and it was clear and clear, but the color was not heavy, but it was very fresh and green.
Last night, she tossed and turned, thinking that she was bold, but she forgot about etiquette, righteousness and shame, only to feel ashamed, and recalled Zhou Zhenwei's lingering meaning, and even blushed and hot, and then figured out that there would be trouble in the past two days, and suddenly felt frightened. After thinking about it like this, I didn't stay sleepy for long, the rooster was already crowing with its neck high, the flowers and trees and shrubs outside were from the inside, the warblers who were sleeping at night were chirping, and the wild pheasants were cooing in a low voice.
Yuqiao simply got up, Bixiu had prepared a warm cotton towel, and although her face was swollen and subsided, she still looked shocked.
"Now you're in the house, you don't have to go with me!" Yuqiao didn't need Bixiu to serve, she washed herself, and then took a closer look at the wounds on her face. shook his head and said: "You are so good to give birth to, I told Bian Xiaoman yesterday, and now with her, her maid Yunqing is a Li, let her take care of me, you don't have to worry too much!" ”
Bixiu listened, and then put her heart down.
The two talked for a while, and a mother-in-law knocked on the door outside, carrying a gold-filled magpie and a black lacquer food box, Bixiu hurriedly stepped forward to open the door and took the table. When the lid is lifted, there is a plate of boiled wild duck meat, a plate of tea-patterned pine eggs cut into small petals, and a small shallow bowl with sesame oil and vinegar dipping sauce. A bowl of fried lotus root slices with oil and salt, another plate of three or four pieces of white sugar glutinous rice cakes, and a large bowl of red and white lotus seed stem rice porridge, freshly burned, steaming hot.
"It's all grown in this lake, and it's lighter than what you eat in the house in the past, so it's better to eat this fresh taste." Yuqiao ate two pieces of duck meat, three small petals of pine eggs, a piece of cake, and half a bowl of lotus seed porridge.
Seeing that there was still a lot left, he asked Bixiu not to be formal, just eat it together.
Bixiu didn't move because of the injury on her cheek, she only put some soft porridge on it, and then she ate it slowly little by little.
At this time, the maid Yunqing came to knock on the door, and it was Bian Xiaoman who sent her to urge him to go to see Shui Wai together.
Out of the wild goose back to the building, the morning breeze is light, the air is fresh and cool, and the women find a good seat early in the pavilion on the shore of the lake. Yuqiao and Bian Xiaoman found a place to sit down, and a palace maid came to find her, saying that Princess Xinyang didn't think it was lively enough, so she asked the two to sit with the princess.
Princess Xinyang has the best view here, and there are many young and strong men who come to the emperor's relatives, all of whom have boarded the boat and gone to the water, leaving Emperor Hongjia to sit with Concubine Ming, and the prince of Yongle is lazily sitting on the side, with a strange face, but he is also careful to accompany the emperor to talk.
Yuqiao and Bian Xiaoman passed by, and couldn't bear to come forward to salute the emperor and concubine, and Concubine Ming was also spared, so Yuqiao stepped forward to speak, and asked some people in the family who were in the family, what they did on weekdays, but there were many people, and took a closer look, and smiled at the emperor: "Your Majesty, this Chu girl is like a person, remembering that it has been many years!" ”
Emperor Hongjia glanced at Yuqiao lightly, his expression was blurred, but he was not depressed. Concubine Ming is a sensible person, and when she knew what he was hurting, she didn't say anything more, and rewarded Yuqiao with some delicate things made in the palace.
Princess Xinyang was only a few steps away from Concubine Ming, and when Yuqiao sat behind her, she saw that Fang Yumu was also in the ranks, her face was covered with a thin veil, and there was a faint red on her cheeks. Coincidentally, she also looked back at Yuqiao, and the two collided with each other, and they were separated from each other without incident.
The algae lake is no longer the quiet and peaceful of yesterday. More than 100 people who participated in Shui Wai boarded the boat imposingly, paraded and climbed on the lake. Everyone paddled and pushed the oar, first static and then moving, first slow and then fast, even into a circle to catch up, all kinds of geese and waterfowl, all fat and strong, at this time did not know that the catastrophe was coming, stupid and stupid Lengleng towards the center of the swim, until it was crowded into a disaster, it was lively and cooing, covering the sky and covering the sun and flapping wings and circling.
Wait for a qiē chase, everyone then sounded the gong and drum, hundreds of torches were thrown towards the central arc, the fire splashed everywhere, the black smoke was billowing, the frightened birds were shaking their wings and feathers flying, the archers were already ready, only to see ten thousand arrows in unison, flying in the air and falling like raindrops, with the miserable cry of wild water birds, the sound of falling into the water, and the sound was endless!
I don't know how long it has been, the lake has gradually calmed down and peaceful, only the waterfowl are densely floating on the water, stretching for hundreds of miles, and there are hundreds of people rowing slowly, laughing and coaxing, and salvaging to their heart's content!
Yuqiao's neck was sore and her back stiff, although she had also been here in the previous life, but because of her slight illness, she rested in the Yangui Building for two days, and she had never seen such a thrilling scene. Now I have a full eye, but I can't bear to look at the corpses on the water.
She looked at the place where the civil and military officials were sitting, looking around, trying to find her father's figure, but the official robe was the same color, and the figure was very good, so she gave up!
At this time, the prince first took the guards and returned in good spirits, and after the salute with everyone, the prince of Yongle smiled and said: "The prince is getting better and better, and he has taken a closer look, he is brave and fearless, and he is really an example for other princes!" ”
The prince was a little surprised, in Su Ri, this Yongle prince looked down on him in every way, how could he praise him at this time? He was also silent, only thanking him.
The prince of Yongle looked at Emperor Hongjia again and said: "Today's Shuiwei is just a warm-up, and tomorrow it will be a big drama to shoot tigers and deer in the middle of the mountain." The younger brother has an idea, I don't know if I can talk about it? ”
Emperor Hongjia became interested and said with a smile: "It's okay for you to say it!" ”
"The emperor is vigorous, tomorrow, it is better to lead the inner guards and the royal forest army with the prince; King Ping, the courtiers and their children; King Wu led the generals and his children, divided into three teams, riding and hunting, to see which team had the most prey in the end, and the emperor would give a generous reward! ”
"That's a great idea!" Emperor Hongjia nodded in approval, pondered for a moment, looked at him and said, "Why did you leave yourself out?" Back then, you were deeply appreciated by the emperor! ”
The prince of Yongle laughed and said: "How can a good man mention the courage of the year? Now the other princes are sick, unable to bear the fatigue of this boat, for fear that the emperor will be disappointed, the courtiers are also desperate to come, and it is okay to help the fun, and they dare not be hunting on horseback! ”
Emperor Hongjia was not reluctant, and only let Gonggong Li pass on his instructions, so as to act, there must be no mistakes!
Princess Xinyang naturally listened to it, and Bian Xiaoman patted Zhao Rurui on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Sister Rurui, tomorrow the prince will have the emperor's help, and he will be the most heroic and martial artist, you just wait for the reward!" ”
Zhao Rurui brushed the place she had photographed with a handkerchief, and did not look at her, she was arrogant: "Even if the prince does not have the emperor's help, he will also be rewarded!" Don't underestimate him! ”
Princess Xinyang glanced at her, smiling rather than smiling.
Yuqiao was ashamed of Bian Xiaoman, who let her fart slap on the horse's leg!
Bian Xiaoman looked at Yuqiao teasing her, and immediately blushed, but she was not annoyed, she only took a few mouthfuls of her hands, reached into her armpits to scratch her, and said ruthlessly: "Let you still say!" ”
When Yuqiao pursed her lips and smiled and dodged, she unintentionally glanced at her, and the prince was looking at her directly, his eyes focused and deep! (To be continued.) )
