317 Abandoned Temple
Han Ji glanced at him, but he bit his lower lip and smiled, picked the tip of the dagger on his finger, squeezed out a drop of blood on the blade, and then turned it upside down, watching the red blood roll straight down the blade. "It's a sharp weapon."
A bowl of medicine was pushed in front of him.
Han Ji turned to the other side, put the dagger into the sheath, and took out the book from the desk with his hand, looking at it with his back to Xin Yi.
"Young master!"
Xin Yi called in a long voice, but the person in the bed turned a deaf ear.
Xin Yi paused, suddenly straightened his waist, and rushed out of the door with his hands together: "Yo, why is Miss Yan here here?" ”
Han Ji slumped up from the bed and picked up the medicine.
But where is there a shadow of a person outside the door? He immediately glared at Xin Yi.
"I'm dazzled." Xin Yi's face does not change color and his heart does not beat.
Han Ji glared at him again and ignored him, but after concentrating for a moment, he still took the medicine and drank it. Then he exhaled and leaned on the pillow, was silent for a while, turned his head and said, "King Chu, what is the movement on their side?" ”
Xin Yi shook his head: "It's impossible to come tonight, the emperor has rheumatism and pain, so he called the imperial doctor, although this little problem is not enough to serve the disease, but the two of them made a mistake last night, how can they not please the emperor first?" Gu Shizi and the others went to the palace and came out, saying that the emperor would not go to the paddock for the past few days, and everyone could move freely. At the very least, I guess, wait until tomorrow. ”
Han Ji hummed, sat up cross-legged, and said, "Did you send it out?" ”
Xin Yi made a glass of white water for him, and handed over a small plate of candied fruit: "I'll ask Luo Shen to cover him out in the next day, and I'll send him to Jinling." I had taught him to avoid the key points in advance, and he was only slightly injured, so it didn't matter. At that time, everyone's attention was not on this, and no one thought that he was faking his death. ”
Han Ji turned the cup and said with his eyebrows: "Since you have gone to Jinling, you just don't let him come back, just let him take care of the grave secretly." I estimate that my father will return to Beijing at the latest in the spring, and now that I have provoked the conflict between the kings of Zheng and Chu in advance, I will definitely not be able to get out of the journey, and at that time let him sacrifice on time on my behalf. ”
At this level, Xin Yi's expression suddenly became solemn: "The young master will not say anything about the sacrifice, and the small one will make other arrangements." ”
Han Ji stared at the ground for a long time, suddenly leaned back on the bed, and said, "You go out, I'll rest for a while." ”
Xin Yi nodded and walked out with the door.
When I went to the porch and looked at the autumn rain, I didn't know if it was autumn sorrow or what, and there was some depression between my eyebrows.
The light rain poured down all night, although there was no strong wind, but early in the morning, it was also full of residual red leaves, hibiscus petals and ginkgo biloba, red maple leaves and camphor leaves or something spread all over the ground, the rain was stopped, but the autumn mood was thick. The palace people all put on thin jackets, and the cold-feared Hua also added a jacket, but Shen Yan was not afraid of the cold, and still teased Xue Jing and them under the corridor like a lark.
Aunt Li really spoke well, and sent the key to Mingxiang Pavilion before breakfast, and Xu had the nourishment of the old mountain ginseng, and the smile on her face was warmer and warmer than before.
"The maple tree is at least one or two hundred years old, and it was planted by the founding emperor of the previous dynasty, and it looks very good, and it rained last night, so the girl has to be careful not to slip." Aunt Li also sat down to eat a cup of tea while Shen Yan was dressing up.
Shen Yan smiled in the mirror and said, "Thank you aunt for mentioning it, let's wear clogs for a while." I don't stay long, I will come back if I go around. ”
Aunt Li was obviously waiting for this sentence, and when she heard this, she got up with a smile: "Thank you for the girl's hospitality, I won't delay the girl." ”
Shen Yan asked Rouge to send her out, and rewarded her with ingots of silver.
Qingdai smiled quietly: "This aunt is lucky to meet a bold person like our girl." If you want to meet others, I'm afraid there are few people who have such skills. ”
Rouge came back and pinched her face: "What about the money you won yesterday?" ”
Qing Dai smiled and dodged: "Didn't you win too?" Ask me! ”
was amused, outside the door, Han Yun Xue Jing rushed in like a ball of meat: "Okay, okay?" We brought breakfast too! ”
Sure enough, the maids behind him came in with a big food basket. The grandmother beside the Duchess of Huguo smiled and said: "Our wife let the second master and the eldest girl eat in the room, but they refused, and the wife couldn't resist them, so she had to let the slave and maid carry the rice over." bothered the girl, and asked the girl not to blame it. ”
"What's this?"
Shen Yan greeted him with a smile: "We like to stay together and eat." ”
When Mama heard her say this, she smiled and said goodbye again.
After eating breakfast and tea here, I went out of the palace to the imperial garden.
The emperor didn't go out today, and there were obviously more people coming and going in the palace. However, from the West Palace to the Imperial Garden to have its own road, along the way I don't know how many bends, through how many floors of the palace, only remember the countless buildings and pavilions along the way and strange flowers and plants, although not as magnificent as the Beijing Palace, but there is another graceful posture.
After entering the garden gate, the view becomes wider, but the corridor is still roundabout and graceful, and after getting off the corridor, I walked along the hot spring pool for most of the circle, only to find that the water chestnut in the lake is growing fat.
Water chestnuts were originally aquatic creatures in the south, but there were special people in the palace to cultivate and serve these flowers and trees, and they were unexpectedly surviving.
Of course, this kind of water chestnut is not comparable to the local in the south, and the taste is not as sweet as the south, but it is a great surprise for Shen Yan. When she was in Jinling, she loved to eat water chestnut very much, and she has not tasted it since returning to the north. So I got on the small wooden boat by the lake and picked a large handful of them a little farther away, and when the skillful Qingdai saw it, he also took wicker and made a small basket on the spot, so that a few of them could eat while walking.
After walking for a short while, I saw that there was a looming temple in the shade of the bamboo forest, and the palace people who led the way finally said that this was the Sanssouci Palace.
In fact, the autumn scenery after the rain is enough to make people forget to return, but since you have arrived here, and the surroundings are indeed quiet and wonderful, it is natural to take a good look.
In fact, there are still people in the temple, and they have to be responsible for daily sprinkling and cleaning.
It's just that there is no one in Mingxiangxuan on this side of the hall.
The palace people opened the lock, bowed down with a smile and said to them: "Second master and girls, please come in, the slaves and maids still have errands, after the girls come out, send someone to Aunt Li to tell them, and let the slaves and maids come and lock the door." Although it is quiet here, there are guards on duty outside the wall, and if there is anything to do, people can go to the official room of the palace on duty by the lake to inform them. ”
Shen Yan thanked and rewarded her, and then looked around again.
I saw that as Han Yun said, there was a low wall full of creepers in front of the hall, and there was a well under the patio on the left.
Step into the door, into the eye is divided on the left and right sides of the six trees that are enough to hold the size of three people of the ancient maple, even after last night's wind and rain, the bluestone ground is full of red leaves, but the tree is still fiery red, and then to the Zhulan jade brick blue wall and tile palace as the background, it is really indescribably pleasing to the eye.
"It's a good place to go!" Shen Yan couldn't help but praise.
Han Yun, who was eating water chestnut, raised his chin: "I'm not wrong, right?" ”
"Well, you'll be rewarded with a chicken leg!" Shen Yan touched his head and walked down the porch briskly.
There are naturally maple trees elsewhere in the palace, but they are all planted in the east and west, and they are not as big as here, Shen Yan circled around the four trees for half a circle, and when he saw that the palace door was open, he walked into it again. The hall is very neatly arranged, but the furniture is covered with cloth, and the floor and porch are still clean, and someone should clean it regularly.
And there is a terrace on the south side, with a beautiful couch, and the curtain is still tied with a jasper pendant, these obviously feminine furniture, people will have some imagination at a glance, guessing whether there has been any great beauty living here.
Thinking of the history that Fu Niang inquired about, if this worry-free hall was once lived by the clan relatives of the previous dynasty, and later because the current dynasty no longer resorted to the summer, there is no one living in such a remote place, then those who live in this Mingxiang Xuan must be the concubines or concubines of the clansmen.
Shen Yan thought of this and felt a dusty fragrant smell coming to his nose, so he looked at it and turned around and went back to the corridor.
However, after taking a few steps, her pace slowed down again, if it was the place where the concubines of the former dynasty clan lived, then how could Wei Guogong come here in a daze? Does he have a soft spot for maple trees, or does he have a nostalgia for its history? Could it be that the dignified Duke of Wei, the Duke of Wei who has been stationed in Huangsha for a long time, is actually a sentimental person?
After all, she still had some haunting memories of this incident, and even she couldn't tell why. In fact, what does this have to do with her? She is just familiar with the Han Ji brothers, and it can't be a reason for her to dig these up.
She suppressed this doubt again, and raised her feet to go to where Xue Jing and the others were.
Xue stopped and the others couldn't sit still, so they rode their horses and went to the paddock with other noble children after breakfast.
Han Ji stayed in the palace because he had the duty of escort.
The emperor was very satisfied with the results of Marseille yesterday, so he rewarded Gu Zhicheng and Dong Shizi Xue Shizi with some tea and precious fruits, and Han Ji was rewarded with a pair of jade chess pieces because he had a good table on the field. After breakfast, Gu Zhicheng invited him over for tea, Dong Shizi and they were all there, and it was inconvenient for the palace to gather people to say anything else, so they had a burst of sea in the north and south, and Gu Zhicheng asked people to roast two pieces of deer breast and wine.
Just as he was eating happily, Tao Xing came in and said, "Son, King Zheng is here." ”
The room was quiet, and several people looked at Han Ji.
King Zheng sat in the side hall of Yuqing Palace, and Xin Yi smiled and served this year's autumn tea.
"I have heard that your master likes autumn tea very much, and it seems that the rumors are true." King Zheng also smiled and saluted.
Xin Yi said: "If the prince is not used to drinking autumn tea, the small one will replace the prince with spring tea." ”
King Zheng waved his hand: "Spring water and autumn fragrance, autumn tea has a strong aroma and a long aftertaste, so that the Lord is a connoisseur." ”
Xin Yi smiled and withdrew. R1152
