Xiao Yizheng led Qingxi out of the dense forest and also arrived on the other side of Shenxin Lake.

He took her hand and walked around the explanation.

Dozens of courtyards and pavilions, water pavilions, different shapes, exquisite design, none of them are the same.

If it is said that there is a scene in ten steps, it is not an exaggeration to say that a hundred steps will change the stars.

"If I hadn't reminded me, I would have thought we were in Jiangnan at the moment." Qingxi sighed softly.

The architecture here is graceful, smart and elegant.

The reason why the garden can be considered the first of the hundred gardens in the north is not only because of its beautiful architecture and scenery, and the world's mysterious curiosity about the rare love of an emperor contained in this royal private garden, but also because it is said that this garden treasures a large number of royal private collections in the former imperial palace.

Such as: the first line of books in the world; Draw the flying picture of Shengyan Rongkai; Ruyang cyan porcelain ...... Wait a minute.

For Qingxi, of course, she wants to see the latter.

However, Xiao Yizheng said: "This is a rumor, I have never seen these rare treasures. ”

Qingxi was surprised.

Is this world-known secret a big misunderstanding?

"I don't know when this statement was formed, and why did it spread so widely?" Xiao Yizheng looked helpless; "When these folk sayings enter the palace and enter the ears of the father and mother, they are no longer able to control it."

"Really?" Qingxi still doesn't want to believe it, it's all because she longs to see peerless works.

Xiao Yizheng nodded. The father didn't want to make a big deal to clarify because of such a rumor, and there was no way to talk about it, so he laughed it off. Left and right, this royal private garden, no one dares to break in. ”

Qingxi sighed heavily, extremely lost. "I wonder where those treasures are now? Does it still exist in the world? ”

Xiao Yizheng raised his hand and grabbed her collar and said with a smile: "We will meet by fate." ”

It takes half a day to walk around the whole garden.

But the two of them were not tired, one was free to tell the meaning of the past for him, and the other listened to his childhood gently, as if he also participated in that carefree life.

"Ah Heng, when you are studying and frolicking in the Chen family in Sujiang, I am here to catch fish and shrimp; When you enjoy the flowers and listen to the wind in the Magnolia Valley, I recite poems and write lyrics here. At that time, how could I have thought that more than ten years later, I would marry such a special good girl. Xiao Yizheng's eyes were clear, and his smile was warm.

Qingxi's face flushed slightly, and he took his arm and said, "Take me to your room to have a look." ”

"Good! We're going to sleep there tonight. Xiao Yizheng smiled heartily.

Xiao Yizheng's childhood residence was called Zhongxiu Pavilion.

Qingxi looked up and was stunned when he saw the plaque.

"Pretty similar, right?" Xiao Yizheng stared at the words on the plaque and said lightly: "This is my mother's handwriting." ”

Although Qingxi knew that Empress Xiaoyi's font was quite similar to herself, she was still surprised to see it with her own eyes. "It's really too similar, but my mother's pen is really chic and I am far from it."

There is nothing to say about the layout of Zhongxiu Pavilion, just as simple as the regular garden of the palace.

Qingxi thought that Xiao Yizheng's life was not very particular about since he was a child, but he was consistent.

"I'll take you to see Mother's Luofan Pavilion again." Xiao Yizheng took Qingxi's hand out of the small door of Zhongxiu Pavilion, walked a quiet path, turned a corner and entered another small door.

Qingxi raised his eyes and saw that everywhere he could see was a bamboo forest.

There is a small room in the bamboo forest.

Push the door in, the sandalwood fragrance is faint.

In the middle is a large desk with a large case of pear, on which there is Chengxintang paper, inkstone ink, walnut pen holder hangs large and small fine brushes, and a red plum is obliquely inserted in the blue and white porcelain vase on the corner of the table.

On the left side is a carved bed of rosewood, with a silk brocade quilt neatly placed on the bed, and a dark green double-sided embroidered gauze tent hanging around; Clusters of tassels hang from the outside; Next to the bed is a yellow rosewood dresser, where all kinds of fine jewelry are placed.

On the right side is a small table, where various tea sets are placed, and plum bottles are also placed.

The walls around the house are decorated with all kinds of ornaments, some of which are calligraphy and paintings, and some of which are small objects of embroidered purses.

The whole house was spotless and full of life.

"My father specially explained: Mother's house is tidied up every day, how she was when she left, and how she is now. However, since his mother left, he has not returned to the Garden of Attention. Xiao Yizheng said in a deep voice.

Qingxi took a deep breath: I wanted to come, but I didn't dare to come, this should be the emperor's mentality.

She wrapped Xiao Yizheng's hand, shook it with each other, and said softly: "Mother has good taste and loves life. ”

Xiao Yizheng bowed. "We will pass by Shengling on the way to Sujiang, and I will take you to worship your mother."

"Okay."

The two stayed in the Attentive Garden for seven days without hearing anything outside the window. Eat when you are hungry, sleep when you are tired, watch the stars at night when you are interested, and go to the leisurely mountain in the garden to sing poems; When the interest was not high, they hugged each other and sat in the Forget Worry Pavilion and looked at Shen Xinhu in a daze, silently saying to each other.

As long as the people serving in the garden see King Heng and his wife, they are all retreating, in case a person who does not have a long eye disturbs the love of other husband and wife, no one can stand the swishing in the eyes of King Heng.

On the tenth day of the first month, both of them reluctantly left the Garden of Attention and returned to the Hengwang Mansion.

They were going to get ready to leave Shandu.

They prepared to leave Beijing after the Shangyuan Festival.

Xiao Yizheng discussed with Qingxi, before that, he wanted to take Xiao Yiran out of the palace first, and let him adapt first.

Qingxi did not object, and also prepared some things for Xiao Yiran.

"You don't need to worry about it, the palace will prepare it for him." Xiao Yizheng reminded.

"That's different. This is the intention of you, the sixth brother, and me, the sixth sister-in-law. Qingxi retorted.

Xiao Yizheng touched her hair: "If you have a wife like this, what more can your husband ask for." ”

The two entered the palace together to discuss the matter with the emperor and empress, and they would not object.

Hearing that the emperor was discussing matters in the Palace of Raising the Heart, Xiao Yizheng frowned and asked Guo Rui, who came to report: "In this year's festival, before the dynasty opened, my father and emperor worked hard, is there anything important?" ”

Guo Rui said respectfully: "Not really, it's just that there are some political affairs, and Your Majesty wants to implement them as soon as possible, so he invited the prince and some ministers to come to discuss the matter." Why don't you go to the East Warm Pavilion to rest first? ”

"Let's go and say hello to the queen first, and then go to see the seventh brother. When the father is empty, please know that you will send someone to the seventh brother. ”

"That's nature."

It is very unfortunate that the queen is not in the palace, saying that she took the ladies of the palace to the back garden to enjoy the plum blossoms.

Helpless, the two had to go to see Xiao Yiran first.

Xiao Yiran was very happy to see the two coming, but the kid was even happy with a timid look, he didn't dare to say it out loud, he didn't dare to laugh wantonly, he just kept pushing all kinds of delicious food and drink in front of them.

The waiter who served on the side couldn't help but talk: "Fortunately, King Heng and the princess are here, otherwise our Seventh Highness would be bored, and we wouldn't go out all day, so we would nest in this palace." ”

Qingxi was distressed when she heard this, took Xiao Yiran's hand, and said gently: "Xiao Qi, in the future, the sixth sister-in-law will take you to play." It's a big world out there, and you're going to love it. ”

Xiao Yiran raised his eyes slightly, looked at her cautiously, and said in a low voice: "You...... Do you hate my mother? ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yizheng's face changed, and he said, "Xiao Qi, who taught you these words?" ”

Seeing him say this, a room of attendants hurriedly knelt on the ground.

Xiao Yiran also panicked, hurriedly got up, and said anxiously: "No...... Not them...... Sixth brother, don't blame them. I heard it myself, and I'm not an ignorant child, I can save it. ”

Xiao Yizheng's eyebrows relaxed, thinking about it, who can hide the matter of Concubine Nian in the palace. What's more, Xiao Qi is also eight years old.

"Get up, all of you." He commanded in a low voice.

The squire's expressions of escape were written on their faces.

Qingxi took Xiao Yiran's hand at this time, held him to his side, looked into his eyes, and said softly: "I don't hate your mother, and I won't think that our Xiaoqi has done anything wrong because of your mother's affairs." You just need to remember that I am your sixth sister-in-law, and I will love and take care of you as much as your sixth brother. Will you accept me? ”

Xiao Yiran kept blinking his eyes, and his little hands were clenched uneasily.

"I don't want to

Is it? Qingxi looked sad and lost.

"Nope." Xiao Yiran hurriedly spoke.

Qingxi immediately smiled: "It's so good." ”

Xiao Yizheng looked at them quietly, Qingxi's gentle smile, and Xiao Qi's well-behaved obedience in front of him made him feel that this picture was so wonderful and warm.

"You go and take the Seventh Highness to clean up, and this king will return to his father and take the seventh brother back to the Hengwang Mansion today." He commanded.

It takes time to clean up, and Qingxi suggested that they take Xiao Yiran to the imperial garden to greet the queen first, and also take the child out to breathe fresh air by the way.

Looking at the expectation in Xiao Yiran's eyes, Xiao Yizheng nodded.

On the way to the Imperial Garden, Guo Rui sent someone to invite Xiao Yizheng to go to the Palace of Nourishing Hearts. He thought about it, and didn't want to ruin Xiao Yiran's rare interest in visiting the garden, so he asked Qingxi to take Xiao Yiran to meet the queen mother first, and go to the Heart Cultivation Palace alone.

After Xiao Yizheng left, Xiao Yiran said weakly: "If the sixth sister-in-law doesn't want to accompany me, it doesn't matter, I will go to the Heart Cultivation Hall with the sixth sister-in-law." ”

Qingxi smiled and shook his head: "I also want to go to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the plum blossoms, we have to go quickly." ”

Xiao Yiran grinned and ran away.

This was out of Qingxi's expectations, seeing that there was a team of attendants behind her, and she, the princess, had to run away with him regardless of etiquette, so she had to speed up her pace to keep up.

With a footstep and an unsteady mind, she stepped on the air and landed on the grass by the side of the road, and happened to step on a wet dirt, and the mud splashed on the hem of her skirt.

She screamed badly.

If it's nothing on weekdays, but today it's to meet the queen, and the shoes are muddy and the dress is stained, which is a loss of honor.

She turned her head to look, and it happened that she hadn't brought Moon Shadow into the palace today. There were several people who were waiting for Xiao Yiran, and they didn't know if they could find clean clothes in a short time.

Seeing this, Xiao Yiran hurriedly ran back, and also understood what happened, in the end, he grew up in the palace, and he was unambiguous about the etiquette rules.

"Zhile, you go back and get a set of concubine's clothes." He commanded, and then as if he remembered something, he said to Qingxi: "My mother's clothes, are you willing to wear them?" ”

This was his kindness, Qingxi couldn't bear to refuse, so he nodded.

Xiao Yiran's face moved slightly, as if he was grateful, and said, "Isn't there a room in the Imperial Garden for people to rest?" The sixth sister-in-law doesn't have to go back and forth, just go there and wait for the change. ”

"Okay, listen to you." Qingxi smiled, thinking about it.

The palace maid received the order and went back to get the clothes.

When the two walked into the imperial garden, Xiao Yiran thought about it again and said softly: "Sixth sister-in-law, do you have to change your clothes to see your mother and say goodbye?" ”

Qingxi nodded.

"Then I'll take someone to stand guard for you first."

Qingxi smiled and said softly: "In this way, Xiao Qi will take someone to greet the queen first, don't mention me." I'll explain it to the queen. With so many people, it is eye-catching. ”

Xiao Yiran didn't think much about it, so he nodded and led people to the depths of the imperial garden.

Cheonggye walked to the hut with her skirt in hand.

As soon as she entered, she heard a voice coming from inside the house.

"You're so confused! I've been forbearance for so many years, why can't you understand it, you can't learn it! ”

Qingxi's heart was stunned, and he was alert.

It was the voice of the Queen's mother.
