Volume 1: The Storm Chapter 14: The Apricot Blossoms Sparse Shadow

It's probably fate, Yinzhen liked her when she first saw Qing, maybe because of her bright and clear eyes, or maybe because she lowered her head and smiled, because she and Yinzhen saw different people. From Qing Shi's eyes, he saw the agility that no one around him had.

"Auntie, can you teach me how to play this again?" Yin Zhen held the flower rope in his hand and asked with a puzzled expression.

Flower rope is a folk game, is to use a rope knot into a rope sleeve, one person with a finger to weave the shape, the other person with the finger to take over, turn into another pattern, alternate with each other, until one can no longer weave down. This was originally taught by Jingjia in the Qing Dynasty to pass the time, but now it can also be used to coax children.

Qing Shi took the flower rope and demonstrated to him: "Look, it's a Tian character when turned over like this." ”

After Yinzhen tinkered a few times, he still couldn't understand, and became more and more annoyed, so he simply threw it out with the rope: "Don't learn, don't learn." ”

Qing Shi had to coax: "Yinzhen, when you learn, my aunt will take you to play." Yin Zhen suddenly became interested, got up and picked up the rope, and he studied it in a while.

With a slanted eye, I saw the open window, at the beginning of spring, the apricot blossoms were like snow, melting into one. Good birds are singing at the beginning of the year, occupying the spring color, and the general good scenery is a good time to go out. Yin Zhen tugged at Qing Shi's sleeves and said, "Auntie, shall we go to the Imperial Garden to fly a kite?" ”

Qing Shi poked Yinzhen's forehead and said, "You little clever ghost!" ”

Yin Zhen stared at Qing Shi with bulging eyes again, as if begging for mercy and coquettishly said: "Auntie......"

Qing Shi looked at Yinzhen in front of him and seemed to see himself many years ago, but as he grew older, he no longer dared to be as stubborn as before, so he could only walk on thin ice and be careful everywhere. As for Yinzhen, will she become like her in the future?

Just when Qing Shi was deep in thought, Yin Zhen obediently came over and pulled the side of the corner of his clothes and called, "Auntie, let's hurry up, okay?" ”

Seeing his cute appearance, Qing Shi led him by the sleeve and smiled: "Okay, aunt will take you there." He ordered the palace people to fetch kites, and turned around and told the palace people not to follow.

The spring of the imperial garden is strong, the courtyard is dotted with several mountain stones, apricot blossoms are planted here, pear blossoms are planted there, they are flying for a while, and they are extremely moving.

At this time, Yinzhen had already put up the thread wrap, holding the thread tightly in his hand, but the kite flying technique was very good. The kite didn't fly, and he angrily threw the kite on the ground.

"I've seen their kites fly far before, but they can't give birth to mine."

He's only four or five years old, so where will he put it? Qing Shi shook his head helplessly, angry and funny, picked up the kite and ran around it for a while, and then threw the kite up. Yinzhen also pulled the line back and forth at the right time, although the technique was rusty, it was always flying.

Yin Zhen happily clapped his hands and shouted, "Auntie, you are so powerful." Qing Shi nodded and said, "You have to remember that kites can only fly into the sky with the help of force." ”

"Help Aunt Help, but the wind?" The north wind blew and blew the pear and apricot petals in front of it, flying everywhere. Yin Zhen raised his head to look at the direction of the wind, and asked, "Auntie, did you say that the east wind or the west wind is blowing today?" ”

Qing Shi relieved himself a little, stretched out his soft wattle to feel the direction of the wind, but he couldn't feel it, perhaps, the kite could: "If I am told to say the direction of the wind out of thin air, I don't know." Why don't you try flying a kite? ”

I saw him take the kite from Qing Shi's hand, and galloped a few steps along the direction of the wind, and when he saw that the wind was almost as strong, he threw the kite up.

"Auntie, you see, the kite is flying. I guess it must be the east wind. Qing Shi ran with him, cheering and applauding, "Yinzhen is so powerful." ”

He smiled when he thought he was proud, and then looked into the distance, and suddenly remembered something, and ran over with a spool and pointed to the end of Yanhui Pavilion and said: Auntie, look there! ”

Qing Shigang nodded, and looked along the place he pointed, the apricot blossoms of a tree followed the Yanhui Pavilion to the small pond, and the first buds and the unbloomed reflected each other, outlining another scene after the Forbidden City was clear and snowy. Qing Shi looked back at him and said, "Let's go and rest for a while?" ”

"Yes, yes." After Yinzhen responded, he immediately retracted the spool, how did he know that when a gust of west wind blew, the kite swayed non-stop. This Yinzhen tightened again, and Qing Shi was about to let him slow down, but unexpectedly, the fierce wind crossed, and the kite string was broken and floated into the distance.

"My kite ......" Yinzhen looked at the kite that had been blown away by the wind and had become a shadow. The beggar with tears in his eyes looked at Qingshi. Qing Shi had to comfort him and said, "Zhen'er doesn't cry, my aunt will go and find it for you." After saying that, he saw that he had broken into tears and smiled, and looked at Qingshi expectantly.

On the west side of the Imperial Garden, although she doesn't come often, every road is quite familiar. The kite is blown to the Yanhui Pavilion, the Yanhui Pavilion takes the meaning of prolonging the sunset, and the opposite Duixiu Mountain forms a contrasting state, and the snow scene of the West Mountain can be seen in the distance on the pavilion every winter. This is also the place where the Eight Banners show girls are selected, and there are often no people coming.

Qing Shi walked to the front of Yanhui Pavilion and looked up at the kite hanging on the tree. The kite is more than four feet away from the Qing Dynasty, and now there is no trunk to branch, so I think about it in the Qing Dynasty, why not try to use the stone to startle the bird, causing the branches to tremble and see that the kite can not come down.

Qing Shi picked a big stone and hit it, but there was no response, and he picked up dozens of pieces one after another, only to hear a bird "chirping" flying away from the tree, shaking off the new leaves on the tree, and even floating down with the kite.

At the right time, Qingshi took a few steps back to catch the kite and sighed. Then he turned back to the way he came, and suddenly heard a slight footstep behind him, Qing Shi was startled, and then turned around and said timidly: "Who is there?" ”

But hearing no response, Qing Shi couldn't help but look up, and saw a man wearing a bright yellow dragon pattern coming down from Yanhui Pavilion, followed by an attendant holding a dust. It seems that he has been observing Qing Shi for a long time.

Qing Shi couldn't help but tremble, and the kite in his hand fell to the ground, and he didn't care about picking it up, so he hurriedly bent his knees and said: "The slave sees Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed with Jin'an." ”

Xuan Ye enthusiastically called Qingshi to get up and asked with a smile, "You... Is it the concubine's sister? ”

Qing Shi didn't know what to say for a while, just nodded.

Xuan Ye looked at Qing Shi and asked suspiciously, "What are you ......?"

Qing Shi looked down and saw a messy body, scratched his head and whispered: "Just now the kite was blown away by the wind, and the slave came to look for it and found it on the tree, so he hit the branch with a stone......"

Xuan Ye said with a smile: "This method is a bit stupid, but after all, I got the kite." ”

Qingshi couldn't help but brace his cheeks, lowered his head, and bit his lip.

Xuan Ye picked up the kite that fell on the ground again and put it back in Qing Shi's hand: "Take care of your sister." ”

The moment the two hands intersected, Qing Shi's face was flushed with shame, and she took the kite tremblingly, but she couldn't stop her hands that had been trembling.

Xuan Ye looked at her trembling hands and smiled: "I'm not a flood beast, can I still eat you?" ”

Where is there such a good-looking flood beast, Qing Shi muttered in his heart, watching his distant back bow his head and smile, until the figure was covered by the apricot blossoms in front of him.

It turns out that the heavenly family is like this, no wonder they all want to enter the palace.
