36. Falling English is colorful

There is only one son today, named Wei Jichang, and this eldest prince refers to him.

The eldest princess of Shouchang is the aunt of several people, and the eldest princess has a birthday today, and it is natural for these people to come to celebrate her birthday.

It's just a birthday celebration, why are you still coming to Reva Garden?

What a disappointment. Lord Wanping pursed her lips dissatisfiedly, it must have been the idea of her other cousin, Wei Yuan, the prince of King Yu. The lord of Wanping Weng understands her eldest cousin, she is uninhibited, unrestrained, likes to play in the mountains and rivers, and is a little deviant, so he doesn't care if there are female dependents in Luhua Garden, as long as he wants to see peonies, he must come.

Lord Wanping Weng had no choice but to let everyone change to the Golden Lotus Courtyard on the side. There is a pond of water lilies planted in the Golden Lotus Courtyard, which has not yet bloomed, and there is an octagonal pavilion in the courtyard, which is quite elegantly arranged, but it is much inferior to the Luhua Garden.

A few girls heard that the prince of Jin and the prince of Yu were here, and they were lucky enough to meet the nobles in the palace, but they couldn't sit still at that time, their cheeks appeared a shy pink glow, and their eyes glanced outside the door of the moon cave from time to time.

The lord of Wanping Weng was already unhappy because he was disturbed, and when he saw this, he said mercilessly: "If you are reluctant, you can go back now, I can't play this drum and pass the flower order without a few of you." ”

The men immediately flushed their cheeks and lowered their heads.

Tang Wan whispered in Su Xi's ear: "This Princess Wanping really doesn't save face at all. ”

Su Xi listened, only raised her long eyelashes, smiled softly, and did not speak.

Seeing this scene, she remembered that Lord Wanping had teased her at that time. It was also here at that time, Wei Feng, the prince of Jin, Wei Yuan, the prince of Yu, and Wei Jichang, the eldest prince, were outside, and they were sitting next to the lord of Wanping, and accidentally knocked over a cup of tea on the table, and the tea dripped onto the skirt of the lord of Wanping, and the lord of Wanping suddenly became angry, stretched out his hands and pushed her to the ground, and picked up a plate of peas on the table and poured them all on her.

Lord Wanping Weng looked at her condescendingly, with a disdainful gaze: "Where are you, what else do you do besides eating?" Look at your body, it's so fat, it's unappetizing to look at. If you eat this plate of pea cake today, I will forgive you, how about it? ”

Then, Wei Feng and the others heard the movement here, and when they walked to the door, they saw this scene.

That was when Su Xi was most embarrassed, and she wished that there was a crack in the ground at that time. There were half-grown girls all around, and they were seen by a few young men, not to mention that Wei Feng was the object of everyone's longing, Su Xi was originally the age when her heart was budding, but as a result, one of her girlish hearts was crushed by Lord Wanping Weng, and she was so broken that she couldn't pick it up.

In the end, Su Xi naturally didn't eat the plate of pea cake, Su Zhi came to find her and took her away from everyone.

Later, Su Zhi didn't seem to have stepped into the princess's mansion.

Su Xi thought about it and lost her mind, and it wasn't until Tang Wan gently bumped her shoulder that she came back to her senses: "Sister Tang, what's wrong?" ”

Tang Wan said: "What else do you say, I called you a lot and you ignored it, the drumming and passing flowers are about to start, why are you still in a daze?" ”

Su Xi said embarrassedly: "I'm thinking about things." ”

Fortunately, Tang Wan didn't continue to ask her what she wanted, and the drumming and flower passing order began.

While listening to the drum sound next to her, Su Xi thought that now that she was not fat, Lord Wanping Weng never showed that kind of disdainful look again, on the contrary, he was a little kind to her. In this world, it is really the best way to judge people by their appearance.

In the first round of drumming and passing flowers, the peony flowers fell into Tang Wan's hands, and everyone asked her to improvise a poem.

Tang Wan made a poem praising the peony, so-so and passable, everyone barely counted her passing.

In the second round, it was Li Anyi's turn. Fu Yi gave Li Anyi a question.

Li Anyi begged: "Sister Yi, don't come up with too difficult questions." ”

Fu Yi smiled slightly. Last time on the Shangyuan Festival, Su Xi was out of the limelight, she and Yin Mengming couldn't compare to her, now Fu Yi wanted to pull back, although Li Anyi kept begging her to come up with a simpler one, but she still said: "That's good, let's not write poems, I'll make something interesting." Sister Yi, I'll give you a rope, only let you hold on to both ends of the rope, and you can't let go in the middle, how about you tie the rope in a knot? ”

The maid handed Li Anyi a rope. Li Anyi said: "This question is too simple, Sister Yi and wait." ”

As he spoke, he confidently pinched both ends of the rope and wrapped his hands around and around it. Several times Li Anyi thought that he had succeeded, but who knew that when he opened it, there was not a knot on the rope.

Li Anyi muttered: "What's the matter?" Why can't it? ”

The other girls in the room also tried with ropes, but no one succeeded.

Fu Yi smiled: "Sister Yi is willing to promise me to do one thing?" ”

Li Anyi gave up and said convincingly: "Sister Yi, let me do something, as long as it's not too difficult." ”

Fu Yi didn't embarrass her, only asked her to learn from the rabbit and jumped three times.

After Li Anyi finished jumping, he was about to ask Fu Yi how the rope was knotted, when Tang Wan was surprised-

"Youyou, how did you tie the knot?"

It attracted everyone's attention at once.

Su Xi raised his head, his eyes were clear, and he was a little surprised. She saw that everyone couldn't beat it, so she wanted to try it too, and after trying a few methods to no avail, she suddenly had an idea in her mind, wrapped her arms in front of her, held both ends of the rope respectively, and then opened her hands, and naturally tied a knot.

After Su Xi explained this method, everyone seemed to suddenly realize: "Yes, why didn't I think of it." ”

Fu Yi looked at Su Xi with a somewhat complicated expression, and then said with a smile: "Cousin Xi is so smart, she can answer such a strange question." ”

Su Xi smiled and didn't say anything.

Fu Yi is saying that she is "not doing her job", and she will only do some things that are sideways, if it weren't for Su Xi being humiliated by her, she really can't understand the meaning of this.

However, Li Anyi uncharacteristically praised Su Xi a few words, and there was a bit of a desire to be good friends with Su Xi in his words.

Su Xi looked at her strangely.

Next, it was Fu Yi, Wanping Weng Zhu and Song Keqing respectively, and the three of them answered the questions correctly and were punished. Seeing that the time was not early, it was time for lunch, so everyone said that they would play the last round, and coincidentally, when the last drum stopped, the peony flower fell into Su Xi's hands.

The last question is a tricky one. Lord Wanping Weng asked: "Miss Su Jiu, we came out of the flower hall just now, and we have walked through the cave door for a total of several months?" ”

Su Xi: "......"

The princess's mansion covers a vast area, and there are three or four courtyards in the backyard alone, not to mention how many moon cave doors there are. Su Xi didn't remember it at all, and naturally she couldn't answer it, so naturally she lost this question and wanted to promise Wanping Weng one thing.

Seeing Su Xi's depressed face, Wan Ping Weng couldn't help but be happy, and said, "Since that's the case, let's go back to the flower hall first." There is a peach courtyard in the backyard of the Golden Lotus Courtyard, and there are several jars of peach blossom brew buried under the tree, as for where it is buried, I will not tell you. Miss Su Jiu went to find out the jars of peach blossom brew, and we will drink that at noon today. ”

As he spoke, he called a maid to lead Su Xi to the Peachtree Courtyard at the back, while the rest of them went back to the flower hall.

*

As the name suggests, peach gardens are all peach trees.

At this time, the peach blossoms have not yet withered, and as soon as I enter the yard, I will see clusters of blooming peach blossoms, full of flowers.

Su Xi followed the maid of the princess's mansion into the courtyard, and roughly counted them, there were a total of one hundred and twenty peach trees, and there might be peach blossom brew buried under each tree. This Wanping Weng Lord is really deliberately embarrassing her, if she looks for it tree by tree, even if she finds the sun setting, she may not be able to find it all.

Su Xi asked the maid, "Do you know which tree the peach blossom brew is buried in?" ”

The maid shook her head.

Su Xi knew that even if she knew, she wouldn't sue herself.

Su Xi walked a few steps under the peach tree, and the flowers above her head were colorful, and the petals were scattered. As soon as she looked up, a petal landed on her eye, her eyelashes quivered, and the petal slid down her cheek. The scenery was beautiful, and if it weren't for the others waiting in the flower hall to drink peach blossom brew, she would have wanted to spend a little more time here.

Taking another step, Su Xi looked at the peach petals on the ground, suddenly had a mood, had an idea, and looked along the peach blossom tree one by one.

Su Xi is wearing a cherry-colored shirt today, and a tooth-white butterfly wearing a patterned skirt underneath, the butterflies on the skirt are lifelike, the embroidery is intricate and exquisite, flapping her wings, and with Su Xi's pace under the peach tree, those butterflies seem to fly out of her skirt.

I saw that Su Xi was surrounded by a group of flying butterflies, and because he had figured out how to solve the problem of Lord Wanping Weng, his pace was a little relaxed. She wore a pair of embroidered shoes with red satin and gold flowers on her feet, and the toe was decorated with two bright and moist pearls.

Taoyuan and Luhua Garden are next to each other, only separated by a wall.

Not far away, there is a pavilion built on a rockery, and there are three people sitting in the pavilion, which are Wei Feng, the prince of King Jin, Wei Yuan, the prince of Yu, and Wei Jichang, the prince of Yu, who came to Luhua Garden to watch peonies.

Wei Jichang looked at it again and again, and felt that this little girl was very familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, it turned out to be the little girl who flew a kite in the Long'an Mountain Courtyard in the western suburbs that day.

I didn't expect that after only two years of not seeing each other, I would be so beautiful. If it weren't for the fact that those eyes were still as clear and bright as before, Wei Jichang would never have recognized them.

Wei Ji often can't speak, and he can't hear people talking, but he can read lips, and when he saw Wei Yuan's eyes, he didn't blink, and said, "Which little girl is this?" ”

The peach trees are densely planted, one next to the other. As soon as Su Xi's sweet and beautiful little face was revealed, she walked under the next peach tree, and before she could see enough, she hid it, hooked people down, and couldn't wait to cut down all the peach trees in front of her, so as to have a good look at her delicate face.

Finally, she stopped, stood under the last peach tree, and had a jar of peach blossom brew dug out from under the tree.

Su Xi opened the mud seal on the altar, lowered her head and smelled it, the aroma of wine came to her nose, she squinted her eyes slightly, and her little face showed a little intoxication.

It's a pity that you can only see half of your face, but you can't see the whole picture.

Wei Yuan felt a little thirsty for no reason, and took a big sip of the teacup on the black lacquer inlaid luodian table, but still did not quench his thirst.

Wei Yuan was about to ask his subordinates to find out whose girl this was, but Wei Feng on the other side put down the teacup and said with a faint expression: "I forgot to tell my cousin about it, Your Majesty asked me to bring you a word, the victims of Qingshui Mountain have been settled, and the remaining matter of registering the household needs to be solved by my cousin within today." ”

Wei Yuanhuo stood up with a look of surprise: "Why did you only tell me now?" ”

Wei Feng smiled apologetically, got up and said, "I forgot for a while, cousin may be too late to go now." ”

It's been half a day today. Wei Yuan didn't care about the beauty or not at this time, so he hurriedly put on his cloak, led the attendant down the rockery, and rushed to Qingshui Mountain.

After the prince of Yu left, there were only two people left in the octagonal pavilion.

The eldest prince Wei Ji Chang looked at Wei Feng, curled his lips and smiled thoughtfully, dipped his index finger in the tea in the cup, and wrote on the table: "I didn't expect that Wei Shizi would still have a time to forget about it." ”

Wei Feng glanced at the words on the table, and his face did not change: "Occasionally." ”

I'm afraid it's not just occasional, but it has something to do with someone. Wei Jichang didn't pierce him, and wrote slowly: "It's still early, why don't you play a game of chess with me?" ”

"No, I still have something to do, let's go first." Wei Feng refused directly, his face was calm, and he did not feel the slightest guilt.

Before leaving, I glanced at the peach courtyard opposite, which was already empty.

*

Su Xi came out of the peach courtyard and handed the peach blossom brew to the maid behind him to hold, with a shallow smile on his little face.

Just now she saw the peach petals fall from the tree to the ground, with a thin layer of petals laid underneath, most of which were buried in the soil, and then rotted and melted together. If there were peach blossoms buried under the tree, the petals would not rot so quickly, and there should be more petals than under other trees.

Su Xi searched for it according to this method, and he really found it.

It was still early, but she was not in a hurry, she walked slowly. Bypassing a moon cave door, I saw a person walking towards him, wearing a crow-blue Sihe Ruyi cloud-patterned brocade robe, heroic and slender, like a pine and cypress, it was Wei Feng.

Su Xi stopped, and just wanted to call "Cousin Tingzhou", but remembered that he teased her last time that she was "too young", and the words that he blurted out were forced back into her stomach.

When Wei Feng walked up, his expression was calm, as if he didn't remember anything about it.

Su Xi finally said hello.

Wei Feng nodded, and said to the maid behind Su Xi: "Lord Wanping Weng is waiting for this pot of peach blossom brew, since he has found it, he will send it over as soon as possible." ”

The maid knew the temper of the lord of Wanping, and if she didn't go well, she would be beaten and punished, and now that she heard Wei Feng say this, she didn't dare to delay and went to the flower hall.

Only Wei Feng and Su Xi were left under the corridor, as well as Su Xi's maid Tingyan.

Wei Feng lowered his eyes and looked at Su Xi for a while, his eyes were dark, and then said, "Why did you go to Taoyuan to get wine?" ”

Su Xi wondered how he knew that he had gone to Taoyuan, and explained the fact that they were playing drums and passing flowers: "I didn't answer the question of Lord Wanping, so I had to promise her to do one thing." ”

Wei Feng didn't say anything more, just lowered his eyes and looked at her.

Su Xi was a little surprised by him, and curtched his knees and said, "Cousin Tingzhou, I'll go back to the flower hall first." After that, he had to walk past Wei Feng's side.

Wei Feng stopped her: "Wait. ”

Su Xi subconsciously stopped, looked at him, and said, "What else is there to do with Cousin Tingzhou...... The next moment, there was suddenly silence.

Wei Feng reached out and gently rubbed her forehead with his thumb. When Su Xi was looking for wine just now, many peach petals fell on her head, and the petals leaked out juice, and a small red mark was imprinted on the center of her eyebrows, which looked like a cinnabar mole from a distance.

Wei Feng wiped it with his thumb and wiped off the peach blossom mark, then withdrew his hand and said as usual: "Okay." ”

Su Xi looked up at him, blinked, and let out an "oh" sneeringly. Seeing that he was frank and open, presumably just helping her, Su Xi didn't think much about it, and after saying goodbye to him, he led Tingyan away.
