Chapter 357: Fireworks (Two Watches in One)

In the blink of an eye, it was time to move to a new house.

Early in the morning, the genius was numb and bright, and Qingyun was dug up from the bed by the maid.

washed and dressed, hurriedly had some breakfast, and didn't care about greeting the queen mother and queen, so he took a carriage out of the palace.

From the moment she left the dormitory, she carried a large golden pot in her hand, and only half a pot of water was filled in it.

In Feng Shui, there is a saying that "water is the main wealth", in order to ensure that after moving to a new house, the wealth will continue, so it is necessary to carry half a pot of water from the previous residence to the new home, and then add water from the well of the new home to boil water to make tea.

This is only the first step, when you arrive at the new mansion, you have to set off firecrackers and blow suona, and then you can move things into the mansion.

Of course, the moving items are all small pieces, which are commonly used by Qingyun and Chubei, not much, just two big boxes, symbolically, if everything is moved today...... Even at night, it is estimated that it will not be busy.

Wait for things to be carried into the house, and then worship the god of the new house, or worship at the gate, the direction of the god of the land, worship eight pieces of yellow paper, eight longevity gold, implying the direction of the gossip, in all directions......

The ancients were superstitious and disciplined, and the emperor named the housewarming banquet to be held, so it can't be saved.

In front of the gate, there is also a pair of lucky bamboos, and the bamboo is still hung with red silk.

The implication of putting a pair of bamboos is obvious, step by step.

As the saying goes, flowers bloom richly, bamboo reports peace, bamboo management is extensive, there are few pests and diseases, and it is easy to cultivate, symbolizing good luck.

After today, this pair of bamboos will be transplanted into the mansion, take care of it carefully, the more lush the bamboo forest, the more it represents the future of the palace.

In addition to these customs, the first guest who entered the palace after the door was opened, a little boy of six or eight years old.

The implication is obvious, I hope that the couple living in the palace will add a man as soon as possible and spread out.

Just for this custom. Ruoyao County Lord arrived in front of the palace early, and she didn't get close, she was very anxious, she hadn't waited so long in front of anyone's mansion.

Wait for the first guest to enter the house. Ruoyao County Lord has just taken a step.

At this time, a carriage came over there.

Before the carriage stopped, the curtain of the carriage was lifted by a pair of delicate pancreas, revealing a delicate and graceful face.

It is the county lord of Linlang in the East Palace.

When the carriage stopped, the maid stepped forward to help her out of the carriage.

The county lord of Linlang saw the county lord Ruoyao. She couldn't help but cover her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, "I said a while ago that it's better to come early than to come by chance, sure enough." ”

Qingyun had already seen Lord Ruoyao, she just nodded and smiled, and then stepped down the steps and said, "Why did you two come so early?" ”

There are many guests today, and he and Chu Bei can't greet him.

Qingyun asked the county lord Ruoyao and the county lord Linlang to help.

As for Chubei. There are too many people who help him, the king of Yijun, the king of Mingjun, the prince of Dongwang, and the young masters of the Chu family......

Ruoyao County Lord looked at Qingyun, walked to her side, took her arm and said, "Last night, I was so excited that I fell asleep in the middle of the night, thinking that we will live next to each other in the future, I am happy, even the mother envy me, she wanted to live next to the queen at the beginning." I didn't get my way, and I ended up cheapening me. ”

The county lord of Linlang was envious, and she couldn't see that the county lord Ruoyao was too happy, so she poured cold water. "It's naturally good to live next to each other, but you haven't lived in King Ning's Mansion all your life."

Besides, there is also a phoenix vision, and the eldest prince and the eldest princess of this mansion will not live for long.

Although today is the joy of housewarming, everyone knows that there is only one possibility for the prince who moved out of the palace and was crowned king to move back to the palace, and that is to be canonized as the crown prince.

This is more joyful than the joy of housewarming.

was teased by the lord of Linlang County. Ruoyao's face was as red as a glow, and with the king of Mingjun riding over again, Ruoyao's county lord blushed even more.

Although she and King Mingjun have not officially married, she understands the meaning of Princess Ning and County Lord Jinshu, and King Mingjun also understands.

The two of them looked at each other, and then they each looked into the distance, as if they were afraid that outsiders would see the clue.

Qingyun glanced at her, and then glanced at King Mingjun, and saw that the two of them deliberately avoided suspicion, but they had a feeling that there were no silver three hundred taels here.

Just as she was about to laugh, Lord Ruoyao had already pulled her up the steps and entered the mansion.

Stepping into the gate of the palace, then Lord Ruoyao couldn't help but shiver, "It's so cold." ”

Lord Linlang looked at the many ice furnaces on the ground, from the gate of the palace, all the way forward, she couldn't help but gasp, "There are so many ice furnaces, how many ice cubes do you need...... ”

You must know that in the scorching sun, ice cubes are extremely precious, and a large ice cube costs two taels of silver, and it may not be possible to buy it.

For her day's sake, it's just two big ice cubes, and King Chen's Mansion actually has so many ice cubes, which is too extravagant, right?

Qingyun was also a little cold, but it wasn't the kind she couldn't bear, she smiled, "The sun has only risen for a short time, and it won't be cold after a while." ”

Lord Ruoyao nodded, then pointed to the ice furnace on the ground, looked at Qingyun and said, "Ice cubes are expensive, I don't know how many ice cubes there are, holding a banquet, just ice cubes, I'm afraid it will cost thousands of taels of silver, so extravagant, I will be impeached by Yushitai, Sister Qingyun, I think you still remove a few ice furnaces, right?" ”

Lord Ruoyao is kind-hearted, Qingyun is very clear, she nodded and smiled, "Don't worry, it's not in the way." ”

Lord Linlang also thinks it's better to keep a low profile.

Qingying couldn't help but cover her mouth and smiled, "The two county lords don't worry, these ice cubes, the princess didn't even spend two taels of silver."

If Lord Yao doesn't believe it, how can it be, so many ice cubes, you can't buy them without a thousand taels of silver, is there a big ice cellar in King Chen's Mansion?

It's possible, but it's just that it's so hot and there are still plenty of places to use ice in the future, so there's really no need to be so extravagant.

It's just that Qingyun held a banquet, and the maids didn't feel extravagant, and if they mentioned luxury again, it would ruin the scenery.

Not only did the county lord Ruoyao and the county lord Linlang feel extravagant, almost everyone who came to the banquet was amazed in their hearts, how could there be such a banquet?

It is obviously a scorching sun, and the weather that can make people faint from the heat has entered the palace, but there is a feeling of spring melting, refreshing and comfortable.

After the Marquis of Zhennan came to the palace, he called Chu Bei aside and said, "It's just a banquet, how can you be so extravagant and wasteful?" ”

Chu Bei said helplessly, "Qingyun didn't plan to hold a banquet, but his father said that he wanted to hold a big one." It still needs to be done well, and it will be done like this, because the time is pressing, otherwise I don't know what it will be done. As for waste, it was too wasteful in using ice cubes, but when it came to money, there was none, and she made these ice cubes herself. ”

Zhennanhou was stunned when he heard it. "She made all these ice cubes?"

The tone was full of disbelief, how could this be?

Chu Bei nodded, "I saw it with my own eyes." ”

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, who wouldn't have believed it?

For this reason, he also lost a promise to Qingyun, and I don't know what she will ask for in the future.

Yesterday, Qingyun was busy in the palace pharmacy for a day, and when she rode back to the palace, she fell asleep directly in his arms.

He carried her all the way back to the dormitory and arrived at the dormitory. The maid's voice woke her up.

She hurried down, but in a hurry, a small medicine bag fell out of her clothes, and she quickly picked it up, as if she had lost some treasure.

He knew that the medicine bag contained things that Qingyun had been busy with all day, and there were a lot of them.

He frowned, "What is that, does it matter?" ”

Qingyun raised the medicine bag in her hand and said with a smile. "It depends on the situation, but it's more powerful than you think."

When she said this, Chu Bei was interested. Something was more powerful than he could have imagined, and he decided that Qingyun was an exaggeration.

Qingyun didn't argue with him either, and after returning to the house, she poured a cup of tea, handed it to Chu Bei, and said. "Can you ice this cup of tea?"

Chu Bei shook his head, although he could use internal force, it was too difficult to make it into ice.

Qingyun smiled, "I can." ”

Chu Bei looked at her, he knew that Qingyun would not lift ice cubes for no reason, he pointed to the small medicine bag in her hand and said, "You mean it can work?" ”

Qingyun played with the small medicine bag in her hand and said, "You don't believe it? ”

Chu Bei only smiled and didn't say anything, but obviously didn't believe it.

Qingyun knew that he didn't believe it, and she smiled, "If you don't believe it, how about we make a bet?" ”

Chu Bei poured himself tea and asked, "What bet?" ”

Qingyun smiled, "Bet on a promise, if I win, you promise me a request, if I lose, I also promise you a request." ”

Chu Bei looked at Qingyun, his eyes were full of interest and interest, "Listening like this, it seems that I have lost?" ”

"Do you dare to bet?" Qingyun excitedly said to him.

Chu Beifeng's eyes smiled, "Why don't you dare?" ”

Then, he saw that Qingyun took a large bowl, poured water, and then put the teacup in it, and then poured the powder in the small medicine bag into it.

After a few moments, she opened the lid of the teacup.

A full cup of tea condensed into ice, faster than he imagined.

In this way, he lost a promise to Qingyun.

He asked Qingyun what he wanted him to promise, and Qingyun said that he hadn't thought about it yet, and when he thought about it, he would find him to fulfill his promise, and as long as he could do it, he couldn't refuse.

Listening to Chu Bei say that a small medicine bag can make a cup of hot tea quickly condense into ice, Zhennan Hou didn't believe it, but Chu Bei never lied to him, and there was so much ice that he couldn't explain it.

Zhennanhou chose to believe it, but he asked for some of the powder, saying that he would take it back and test it himself.

The Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, and brought his family to congratulate.

Qingyun and Ruoyao County Lord, as well as Linlang County Lord, accompanied them to the garden to enjoy the flowers and appreciate the exquisiteness of the palace.

Although the sun is big, there are many ice stoves in the garden, and it is not hot, and everyone is in high spirits.

At this time, it is still early to use the banquet, and everyone has a lot of fun playing together, throwing pots, fluttering butterflies, guessing coins, chanting poems and stroking the qin.

It's been a long time since they've had a good time.

As for those noble ladies, they sat in the gazebo and watched the ladies play, chatting, and feeling bored, so they went to play mahjong, but no one needed to accompany them.

Although Qingyun is a princess, she really can't talk to those noble ladies, she prefers to watch those ladies play games.

Lord Ruoyao was playing crazy with them, and he didn't know what was wrong, so he was pushed over.

She walked up to Qingyun and said, "Sister Qingyun, they asked me to ask you, are there any new and interesting games?" ”

Qingyun's head grew in an instant, she knew that she was holding a banquet, and everyone would be curious if there were any new games to play, but where did she know so many interesting games?

Qingyun said with a smile, "The games I thought of, I took them out to play at the Hou Mansion banquet last time, and as for other games, there are them, but they are extremely testing people's courage, and they are not suitable to play today." ”

Lord Linlang listened. Then he became interested and asked, "What game is a test of people's courage?" ”

Qingyun stretched out her hand and pointed.

The crowd followed her hand and looked into the distance. I saw a few birds flying in the distance.

Lord Ruoyao shouted, "It won't be for us to catch birds, right?" ”

Qingyun chuckled and said, "It's not that difficult. The test of courage I am talking about is to cross the lake with two iron chains, one up and one down, so that everyone can cross the lake. ”

Qingyun said, everyone automatically made up two iron chains in their minds, and then crossed the lake with two thin iron chains, and shook their heads like waves when they thought about it.

It's so scary, what if you fall into the lake?

"This is too scary," Lord Ruoyao shook his head repeatedly.

Qingyun smiled, "Actually, this is not scary, between the two steep peaks, there is a chain bridge. Let everyone go, and look down, you will get dizzy, but no matter how dangerous it is, you will always be safe. ”

In this way, everyone still shook their heads again and again, saying that it was terrible.

But the lord of Linlang County said, "I think it's interesting, but you can give it a try." It's a practice of guts. ”

A group of ladies looked at the county lord of Linlang as if they were looking at a monster, but thinking that she was not even afraid of death, the eldest young master of the Xingguo Mansion did not agree to quit her family, and she even committed suicide by jumping into the lake, what else could scare her?

Seeing that everyone was frightened. Qingyun didn't continue the topic.

Qingying is very eye-catching, and asked the maid to bring tea.

Everyone played for a while, and they were all a little thirsty, especially there were a lot of things to drink, in addition to tea, there was also sour plum soup. Mung bean soup ......

Especially in the sour plum soup, there are ice cubes, and there are flower petals in the ice cubes.

The ice cubes in your mouth have a sweet and sour taste, just like eating candy.

After quenching their thirst, everyone started playing again.

Little by little, the time passed, and soon it was approaching noon.

The magpie came over and said, "Princess, the big kitchen has prepared the meal, and I ask if it's time for a feast?" ”

Qingyun raised her eyes and looked at the sky, it's all here, and she hasn't heard the male duck's voice shouting that the emperor is coming, and the emperor should not come.

She nodded and said, "Go and prepare, and start the banquet after half a cup of tea." ”

The magpie went down to prepare, and Qingyun looked for the county lord Ruoyao and the county lord Linlang.

She soon saw Lord Linlang in the crowd, but Lord Ruoyao didn't find it for a long time, so she asked, "Where is Lord Ruoyao?" ”

Lu'er said, "The princess forgot about it, before the lord of Ruoyao accidentally spilled the sour plum soup on her skirt, she went back to the house to change her clothes, saying that she would come back in a while......." ”

Before Lu'er finished speaking, Qingying interrupted her and said, "That was half an hour ago, and it was enough for Lord Ruoyao to go back to his house to change two clothes." ”

Lu'er stuck out her tongue lightly, "Slave go and find it." ”

Qingyun beckoned them to their seats.

Soon, everyone sat down, and Lu'er came over and said, "Princess, I didn't find the lord of Ruoyao, the slave maid went to ask, after the lord of Ruoyao left, she didn't come back, I'm afraid that there is something delaying in Ning Wangfu, do you want to go to Ning Wangfu to find her?" ”

It's too late to find her, it's not good to let so many people wait for her, Qingyun thought about what to do, and there was a male duck's voice outside, "The emperor has arrived!" ”

Qingyun, "......." ”

Hearing that the emperor arrived, the noble lady and everyone who had just sat down looked at Qingyun, and they didn't know what to do.

The food is all on the table, and it is still steaming, and I will go out to greet the emperor at this time, and the food will definitely be cold when I come back......

Qingyun couldn't cry or laugh, Your Majesty, you came here with a pinch, right?

Those noble ladies were going to greet the emperor, Qingyun hurriedly said, "You eat first, and I'll go to greet the emperor." ”

A group of noble ladies," ....... ”

Before everyone came to their senses, Qingyun had already asked the county lord of Linlang to help her greet the guests, and she walked out in a hurry.

In front of the palace, the emperor's Luan car slowly stopped.

In addition to the emperor, the queen and Yun Guifei are here.

When they stepped up the steps, the palace guards hurriedly knelt down and saluted, but they didn't see Chu Bei and Qingyun.

This is a bit rude, Yun Guifei seized the opportunity and said, "What about King Chen and Princess Chen, why don't you come to pick up the car?" ”

The gatekeeper shook his head, they didn't know.

Yun Guifei looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty, look at it, you worked hard to go out of the palace to participate in the housewarming banquet of the eldest prince and the eldest princess, but they didn't come out to greet them, and the civil and military officials were all watching inside, they were all relatives, this is too ignorant, right?" ”

Listening to Yun Guifei and Chu Bei are not sensible, the queen frowned slightly, a little displeased, today is the joy of Qingyun and Chen'er's housewarming, but she came to pick a thorn, and said that she didn't want her to follow, but wanted to follow, the queen was a little annoyed The emperor, she said, "I won't say it's okay, there are many guests in the palace today, and it is difficult for Chen'er and Qingyun to deal with them, and then they will take over the car, I'm afraid that I will be busy and dizzy." ”

Hearing that the queen relieved Chubei and Qingyun from the siege, the emperor smiled and said, "I know that they are busy, and I don't blame them, how can the queen blame me, let's go to the mansion." ”

With that, the emperor took the lead in entering the palace.

Although it is separated by a door, it is much cooler in the palace than outside the palace.

The emperor looked at those ice furnaces, and then Yun Guifei was dissatisfied again, accusing Qingyun and Chu Bei of being too extravagant and wasteful.

This time, the queen didn't know how to help them break the siege, which was indeed too extravagant.

All the way forward, everyone's attention is on those ice furnaces.

It was Gonggong Sun, who raised his hand and pointed to the distance and said, "Your Majesty, before the eldest princess got married, the banquet held by the Hou Mansion was ingenious, and you instructed her to hold a housewarming banquet with her heart, how dare she be sloppy, this ice cube is meticulous and thoughtful, and the emperor, you see, the fireworks that soar into the sky, at first glance, it is extraordinary, it took a lot of thought." ”

The emperor raised his eyes and looked at it, and also nodded, "Look at this posture, it's not bad." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a shout, "It's gone off!" ”

Your Majesty, "......." ”

Grandpa Sun, "....... (To be continued.) )
