Chapter 22 Exquisite handiwork
The market in Chang'an City, eyes are focused on Zhu Liu, who has just been born, and the Qingkui who emerged last month must have been completely suppressed.
However, no matter how big the affairs of the rivers and lakes are, it is also a small matter for the princes and generals.
Night fell quietly, the peach blossom forest of Guozijian gradually withered, and the petals fell between the courtyards, and were blown by the gradually warm night breeze and piled up under the courtyard wall.
Song Yu sat alone in the teahouse, the original teapot was replaced by a wine jug, and he looked at the sky willingly, his expression was slightly gloomy.
Squeak –
The courtyard door was pushed open, and Liu Yunlin, who was dressed in disguise, entered the courtyard with a bamboo basket, put down two baskets of rice paper outside the teahouse, and stepped forward to salute respectfully:
"Lord Wang, things seem to have taken a turn for the better. Today, in the eyes of Furong Guan, I saw Xu Buling walking out of the back mountain of cultivation, although he was wearing a cane, his complexion and demeanor were relatively good, and his injuries should have recovered a lot......"
Song Yu put down the wine jug, shook his head and smiled lightly: "If you don't let the people who are already favored by the Heavenly Dao, how can you become a waste person so simply...... It's good to recover, and the layout finally doesn't have a bamboo basket to draw water. ”
Liu Yunlin frowned and thought for a moment: "According to the imperial doctor, the Lock Dragon Gu has been poisoned, and although it has not entered the heart and lungs, it is very difficult to stand up...... Xu Buling was able to resume walking in just over 20 days, and his physique was too strong......
Song Yu frowned and pondered for a moment: "The recovery of the light body is useless, I don't know how much the martial arts have recovered...... Find a way to test the depths. ”
"No!."
Liu Yunlin thought for a moment: "Even if the martial arts recover a little, it can't be as powerful as in front of the Taiji Palace, and the muscles and bones can't be recuperated in half a year, or continue to walk according to the prince's plan?" ”
Song Yu picked up the flask and took a sip, thinking for a while: "As the days go by, there will inevitably be branches...... Give him some time to recover, get ready, and start as soon as he's done. ”
Liu Yunlin nodded, said no more, and retreated silently......
------
Under the same full moon, under the Yufeng Mountain ten years away, the palace lanterns were lit in the summer resort, and the maids sent from Chang'an City walked around in the villa.
The silver moon was reflected in the lake, a few lotus flowers bloomed under the terrace, a little light was lit in the window near the lake, the window was half-opened, revealing the woman's delicate side face, and the golden hairpin shimmered a few points in the dim light and moonlight.
In the spacious bedroom near the lake, there are screens, soft couches, tea seas, chessboards, piano tables, etc., which still look simple and elegant.
The Queen Mother was wearing a red dress, and because she had just bathed, the placket was half open and not closed, revealing the red lotus Tibetan carp inside. His face was watery, his slender eyelashes fluttered with the blink, and he sometimes muttered to himself:
"This thing, it's weird......"
On the table against the wall, a piece of rice paper is pressed with a paperweight, and the planed 'egg'-shaped object is drawn with a brush, which is not much different from the architectural and equipment drawings of this world, but the shape is very strange, and there are gears, clockwork, etc., which looks a little complicated.
Next to the rice paper are files, gold wires, twists, etc., as well as pure gold eggshells and gear embryos poured by the jewelers of the palace. There is also a wooden carved figure standing next to the candlelight, and the sugar gourd in his hand has long been eaten, and now it has been replaced by the queen mother's earrings, bracelets and other objects, hanging on it, and the jewels are a little funny.
The Queen Mother took a small file and carefully polished the pure gold pinion in her hand, glanced at the drawings from time to time, and continued to work.
Huainan Xiao family since ancient times are famous for what they have learned, Confucianism, ink, Taoism, law, etc., have dabbled in, for the study of various exquisite objects is unique, the Central Plains region in the famous buildings, weirs, bridges, and even eight ox crossbows, siege vehicles, armor and so on, many are the handwriting of the ancestors of the Xiao family.
The queen mother is the daughter of the Xiao family, and she used to be in contact with these strange things at home, and when she got to the palace and had nothing to do all day, she put all her thoughts on these.
Xu Buling's drawings are only a rough idea, and the details are still the attention of the Queen Mother to the staff officer, which roughly means: there is a small clockwork in the hollow egg, connected to the cam, and the clockwork accumulates to drive the cam to rotate, and the center of gravity is unstable, the egg will beat, and the principle is similar to the vibration of modern mobile phones.
The night was long, and the Queen Mother may have pondered for too long and her eyes were a little tired, so she stretched her waist and turned her head to look at a little light on the mountain peak in the distance.
After counting the days, it seems that I can go to Furong tomorrow......
The Queen Mother's movement of stretching her waist stiffened slightly, and her legs involuntarily softened, and she was a little afraid.
It's not that I'm afraid of Xu Buling, but that Xu Buling is at night...... Like an ox plowing the ground......
The Queen Mother felt a little annoyed when she thought about it, although she was detoxifying Xu Buling, she committed suicide after detoxification, and the hurdles in her heart could barely be suppressed. But she is a woman after all, and she doesn't know martial arts, and her body is not as resistant to tossing as a woman who has practiced martial arts since she was a child. It was naturally a little unbearable to be allowed to make a mess that was not light or heavy, and every time she came back from Furong Guan, she had to lie down for a day to recover, and she was floating when she walked, which made Qiao'e think she was sick......
"This obstacle ......"
The Queen Mother's eyes showed a bit of anger and dissatisfaction, and she always felt that Xu Buling was not simply detoxifying, but was also using her kindness to vent some unspeakable things. But she is on the weak side in this kind of thing, and she can't kick Xu Buling down......
After sulking for a while, the Queen Mother took the mahogany sign from the villain on the table, and looked at the above: Zhengzheng, her face showed a little sadness.
It's only been thirteen times for so long, when will you get it a hundred times......
But the thirteen sins alone made her a little unbearable, and she couldn't urge her to hurry up......
Distraught, the Queen Mother sighed, walked back and forth in the house with her arms crossed, her face was as serious and upright as ever, taking this as a serious matter to save lives and help the wounded, but she always couldn't help but think about going up the mountain tomorrow in her mind.
When the time comes, I'm afraid I'll suffer again, that evil obstacle......
————
The moonlight shines in the middle of the villa.
Xu Buling silently climbed over the wall of the summer resort, did not alarm the guards lurking everywhere, and moved quickly towards the lake where the Queen Mother was sleeping.
At first, he approached the Queen Mother with the purpose of detoxification, but Xu Buling was not a ruthless person full of utilitarianism, and he was not so anxious after recovering two or three percent, mainly to cultivate a relationship with the Queen Mother.
Coming over tonight, I specially put on the black embroidered gold-rimmed robe that Aunt Lu had just sewn by herself, her hair was tied up and pinned with a hosta, she was dressed in a simple and clean manner, and she also bought a sugar gourd from the market under the mountain, which was quite well prepared.
Walk through the corridor by the lake and gradually come to the illuminated room.
Xu Buling listened attentively, now that his martial arts had recovered thirty percent, his hearing perception had naturally recovered synchronously, and after making sure that there was only one breathing sound in the room, he climbed in through the half-open window.
In the spring of March, the room was lukewarm, a lamp on the table was like a bean, but there was no one in front of the table.
Xu Buling walked softly through the outhouse, glanced at it, and the things on the table were not confiscated, it should have just been tossed halfway. Afraid of ruining the Queen Mother's hard work, Xu Buling didn't touch the golden eggshell on the table, but just looked at it and nodded with satisfaction. After that, he turned around and walked to the soft couch with the sound of breathing, looked at it, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
On the carved soft couch for people to lie on their sides next to the tea case, the queen mother's skirt was half-undone, revealing a somewhat tight lotus Tibetan carp that had been collapsed, and the two carps trembled slightly. The hand is stuffed under the lotus Tibetan carp, and the other hand is even more irregular, the feet are slightly arched and stirred together, and the whole person is rubbing around on the soft couch like a caterpillar.
"Woo~......"
The breath is like an orchid, and the voice is sweet and greasy.
There are beads of sweat on his slightly reddened cheeks, and because he naturally likes to sweat, his body is also slightly shiny, and he has a beautiful and delicious taste in the dim light......
