【Chapter 037】 Magpie

On this day, Shen Youqing got up very early.

Yuxi entered the door and opened the window, and a magpie flew in with its wings flapped.

"Yikes! Miss, the magpie is coming in, there must be a happy event today......" Yuxi was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly closed the window again.

Shen Youqing got out of bed and stared at the magpie thoughtfully, but the magpie that was flying around also stopped and landed on the pen stand of the bookcase, and the two black eyes turned slightly, as if they were looking at Shen Youqing.

Yuxi put down the duster in her hand and walked to Shen Youqing's side, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Miss, this magpie is looking at you, it's really strange......"

"Get it out!"

Shen Youqing frowned, holding back the urge to kick Yuxi in her heart.

Yuxi didn't understand what Shen Youqing meant, and looked at the smart and lively magpie with pity, and said reluctantly, "Miss, when the magpie enters the door, how can there be any reason to drive it away, or——"

"Either you kick it out, or I'll catch it and roast it, and you can do it yourself."

Shen Youqing coldly put down this sentence and went to wash, Yuxi looked at her back blankly, and finally pouted and opened the doors and windows.

The magpie flew around the house a few times, chirped a few more times, and flew out of the window with fluttering wings.

There was a faint fragrance in the house, Shen Youqing held her breath, covered her nose, and stopped Yuxi's action of closing the window, "Don't close it, just leave it open." ”

Yuxi was confused, but she did it.

The magpie entering the door is definitely not a good thing in Shen Youqing's opinion.

"Originally, it was a good idea to look up and see joy, but it was wrong to fly into our house, I heard a legend that a magpie would fly into the house and something bad would happen." Shen Youqing whispered softly, as if she was muttering, but every sentence fell into Yuxi's ears.

Yuxi looked at her in astonishment, and was a little moved, the eldest lady of her family finally explained to her.

"But why did this happen?"

Shen Youqing secretly raised her forehead: I knew that I shouldn't talk to her about this......

Seeing that Shen Youqing didn't answer, Yuxi didn't ask, and went over with a smile and brought Shen Youqing clothes.

After the aroma gradually dissipated, Shen Youqing relaxed.

The magpie entering the door will bring disaster, it is pure nonsense made up by Shen Youqing, but there is indeed something wrong with her, and when she wakes up from her sleep, her right eyelid has been jumping.

Why did that magpie fly here?

She could easily tell that the magpie had a special smell all over it, not incense, but she was sure what it was used for.

Wayfinding incense.

As the name suggests, it can be used to guide the direction of incense, which is used when training birds and beasts, and the best effect is on the body of the magpie, this incense is priceless, and it is extremely rare, even she has only smelled it once.

Such a rare and high-priced incense seed is mostly used for the pastime of princes and nobles, and it is not practical for ordinary people.

"Miss, the old lady has already risen, let's hurry over."

Yuxi's voice made a noise to Shen Youqing, and she realized that she had been staring at the lotus leaf for a long time......

A few days ago, Shen Youqing learned that the daughters of the Shen family would go to Huguo Temple to worship the Buddha on the first day of the sixth month, and the old lady would live in the temple for a while, as short as one month and as long as half a year.

Shen Youqing is not a person who is a Buddha, she only feels that reciting Buddhist scriptures is a painful thing, so she wants to avoid it, but Pei Shi seems to have seen through her thoughts, and tied her to her side early, and even let Yuxi follow her inch by the ......

The morning bell and dusk drums, the sound of Buddhist music, and the monks in the temple recite Sanskrit from time to time, making the surroundings more silent.

Shen Youqing and Yuxi walked on the road to Jialuota, there was a stream on each side of the path, about four or five feet wide, the bottom of the stream was built into a stepped shape, and the stream was gurgling from top to bottom, which was more interesting than the rockery and flowing water of the Shen family, and sometimes you could see three or two lotus flowers, standing in clusters.

Don't complain about the Buddhist scriptures that make your ears callous, and enjoy the long-lost scenery along the way.

"Miss, Madame won't let you wander around."

Yuxi nagged behind her.

Shen Youqing also knew why Pei's order was like this, Huguo Temple has always been exclusive to the royal family, and from time to time people from the royal family would come over, and she didn't know how to get along with etiquette, so Pei's was so strict.

She didn't want to meet them, so she chose the more remote Galotta.

"Miss, let's go back, it's too quiet here, slave maid......" Yuxi looked at the towering tree, only feeling a little gloomy.

Shen Youqing said solemnly: "Buddha Gate Holy Land, what nonsense are you talking about?" ”

Yuxi followed Shen Youqing closely, not daring to take a single step.

To be honest, Shen Youqing also felt that it was ridiculously quiet here, there was not even a bird, and as he got closer and closer to Garota, the chanting sound in his ears gradually weakened......

"It's all here, how can there be any reason to go back!" Shen Youqing glanced at her.

A burst of fragrance suddenly wafted in, Shen Youqing subconsciously held her breath, she didn't need to carefully distinguish it, she knew that it was pathfinding incense again!

"It's a magpie, Miss, and there's another magpie."

Yuxi pointed to the magpie above her head and shouted excitedly, the magpie flew into the house in the morning and said that it was a disaster, and this time it should be a good thing......

Shen Youqing fell into deep thought again, not caring about Yuxi's surprise at all.

It's not that there's another magpie, it's that the magpie jumping in the treetops at this time is the one in the morning.

In contrast, the taste of wayfinding incense has faded a lot......

"Leave it alone, let's go back." Shen Youqing turned around and left, not giving Yuxi a chance to ask.

It's just that she didn't expect that someone stopped her way before she took a few steps.

"It seems that this bird has taken the girl as its master."

Two people walked out of the path on the side, one of whom Shen Youqing still recognized, Huo Ying.

and the other person is dressed in brocade clothes and has a piece of mutton fat jade pendant hanging from his waist, which looks like an extraordinary identity, such a person is either rich or expensive; Originally, there was nothing special, but because of what he said just now, and he stared straight at Shen Youqing without squinting, which made her feel a little pressure.

Shen Youqing wasn't sure who he was, but he could guess his identity.

Under his long-term gaze, Shen Youqing finally bowed down and saluted: "I've seen Master Huo." Lord Huo is also here to worship the Buddha? Then don't bother the two. ”

Even if she could guess the identity of that person, how could she really say it, saying that she wouldn't have too much contact with the royal children.

"Yuxi, let's go." Shen Youqing bowed her head and bent over in fear, not daring to look directly, looking very weak.

"Miss Shen walks slowly." Huo Ying didn't care either, but felt that it was a little funny that she suddenly became submissive, although she thought that she might have something in mind, but she also hid that curiosity.

"Who is she?"

Suddenly hearing this inquiry, Huo Ying subconsciously didn't want to tell him, lowered his eyes slightly, and replied: "Back to the prince, I don't know, it's probably a certain young lady." ”

"This king is not a bird that is good to anyone......

Huo Ying's expression was dazed, and he replied, "I think I'm just tired of flying, so I stopped and rested." ”

Such an answer may not let him eliminate his suspicions, Wei Wang Xiao Sheng was already deep in thought, suspicious and easy to guess, even if it is true, he has to think about it for a long time, not to mention Huo Ying's reaction just now, which is different from the past......

Xiao Sheng was silent for a long time before laughing: "I haven't seen you for a few days, I didn't expect even Zhongyun to make a joke." ”

Huo Ying didn't say anything, let alone laugh, just walked forward with Xiao Sheng's footsteps.

……

"Miss, who did you say was that person we just met?"

Yuxi asked like this, even Shen Youqing was thinking, there are not many heirs of the Xiao royal family, and if you exclude them one by one, there will only be one left, Xiao Sheng, King of Wei!

Seeing that Shen Youqing didn't answer, Yuxi sighed again: "His eyes were so scary just now......

Not only did Yuxi feel like this, but she also felt that if she stayed a little longer, she would be in danger of losing her head.
