When Ayu returned from the dining hall, she took some pears in her hand, and when she saw the snow at the door, she couldn't help but thank her, "Thank you Xue Yingwei, if you don't dislike these pears, take some" The pears were picked by her and Xiao Quanzi on the pear tree behind the temple, and they smelled sweet and delicious, and the mother could eat two when she woke up.

Xue looked down at the pear in front of her, "No, take it to Niangniang" After that, she disappeared at the door of the meditation room. "Snow Shadow Guard's martial arts are really good" Ah Yu suddenly thought if she could also use some martial arts to better protect her mother! Lezizi pushed open the door and walked into the meditation room

Chu Xiang in the inner room was still asleep, Ayu looked at the sky, it was almost the time to fall asleep, and if she went to sleep at night, she walked carefully to the couch but found that the corner of the gauze tent was open, could it be that the mother opened it herself when she was asleep?

"Mother, mother, are you going to wake up?" Ayu called softly, "Hmm... Ayu? Chu Xiang opened his eyes in a daze, looked at the unfamiliar tent above his head, and was shocked, and then remembered that he was not in the Mingluan Palace, took the soft pillow and put it behind him and slowly got up, "Niangniang is hungry? The slave and maid picked some pears for you."

Chu Xiang did have a dry mouth this night, "Then take one" "No" Ayu found a round and full pear, peeled it with a knife, cut it into small pieces, and put it in a crystal plate, and then took out the silver fork he was carrying, cleaned and put it aside, "Niangniang, do you know why Concubine Rong didn't wait for Niangniang?" Ayu forked out a piece and fed it to her

"Oh? Why? "When the slave maid went to dinner in the afternoon, she realized that Concubine Rong was dressed up, wearing a dress as transparent as the gauze curtain on the outside of our sleep, and sat in the middle of the dining hall, and she didn't eat the buns in her own bowl, but she had to eat the little monk's bowl, and the little monk even fell to the ground, and then the old abbot came to stop."

Chu Xiang is not a gossip person, listening to Ayu should relieve his boredom, a plate of pears after eating a small half of it was withdrawn, and the pears are cold until the evening is better to eat less

"Ayu, can you bring a big hood to the palace?" "Brought it, but the mother is going out for a walk?" Ayu actually wants to go out and see this temple in her heart, and it feels very comfortable, which is not the same as the feeling of the imperial city at all!

When Hongu came, he noticed that there should be an excellent place behind the wing, but all his attention was drawn to the lotus pond. If it's not dark today, it's a good time to wander around."

"No, the slave will bring the big cover to the mother."

Put on the purple gold hibiscus ribbon cover, put on a pair of light embroidered shoes, and walked out of the meditation room under the leadership of Ayu, did not take a good look at the residence during the day, now it seems that the location of her meditation room is good, facing the east and belonging to the yang, the abbot has a heart. After walking along the mahogany corridor, about two teas, she arrived at the wing room that she saw during the day, and the back of the wing room was indeed an extremely empty place as she said, and in the middle there was a linden tree that had lived for hundreds of years, and the evening wind rustled the leaves.

There were three people sitting on the stone bench under the tree, and there were several jugs of wine on the table, and it was not difficult to recognize the three people in their black power suits.

Feng picked up one of the wine jugs and poured a glass, raised his head and drank it all, "Hey, Commander Yan's trick is to fool the three of us, the third child has been replaced, we don't know, ashamed, ashamed!" Ye took the flask and took a big sip directly, "If it weren't for the fact that the third child's temperament is extremely difficult to imitate, we really can't see it, I'm not interested in Commander Yan replacing the third child here, I'm just worried about where the third child is now?"

Yan Hong wore a snow mask and looked at the table with cold eyes, "Snow is not dangerous, he just did something in the imperial city instead of Yan, and when he returns, Yan will go to thank you now!" I wanted to say something at night, and then I felt an aura behind me that was different from a few of them, it was a woman! Pick up the wine cup on the table and shoot it with a flying hand!

Chu Xiang was looking at them from a distance, she didn't hear a word of what they said, and suddenly a gust of wind blew in front of her, and she saw an object flying towards her! And she couldn't move! At the last moment, a figure picked her up and dodged the attack, and there was a strong smell of fragrant pancreas on that person's body?! The heart was pounding, and the wine cup finally hit the wall, shattering into several pieces

A pair of big hands hugged her tightly, there was a strong heartbeat in her ears, and the smell of fragrant pancreas was in her nose, and it took a long time to recover and struggled to withdraw from her arms and look up at the man

"If Bengong guessed correctly, you should be Xue Yingwei, just now you saved Bengong's life, Bengong should be grateful to you " Xue Bing's cold eyes stared at her tightly and didn't say anything, Ye Hefeng rushed over and saw that it was Chu Xiang and knelt down and saluted, "I don't know if it was Concubine Xiang who arrived, so I was offended, please forgive my mother!"

"Well, the sense of vigilance is good, but this palace has disturbed you drinking and having fun here" Feng explained, "How can it be, if the mother doesn't dislike it..."

Chu Xiang looked sideways at Xue, who had been standing next to him silently, and said, "It's so chic, this palace also wants to experience it" After speaking, he slowly walked to the stone table with his skirt, there were originally four stone benches around the stone table, and Lei was not there, so she just sat down.

Looking at the wine jug on the table, picked up one and smelled it, the wine was strong and sweet, it should be a good daughter red, although there was good wine in the palace, but Liang Qi said that she was not allowed to drink anything, even he himself was forced to drink a few cups at the palace banquet, thinking about it, he picked up a wine cup to taste it. Ayu stood aside and watched the anxious turn of the mother's drinking, and she didn't know what to do! What if the emperor knows!

"Ayu, don't worry, it's the palace itself that wants to drink and it has nothing to do with you" Chu Xiang had already poured a lamp, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it lightly, and then he was about to drink it all in one gulp "Niangniang, don't worry!" A familiar male voice sounded on the huge Bodhi tree, and then a slender figure jumped down from the canopy of the Bodhi tree and landed steadily on the stone table, flashing towards Chu Xiang's peach blossom eyes, "Niangniang, don't drink such inferior wine, I have a good pot here!"

Ray, when did he return? Got it done? Sitting at night and asking curiously, Lei took out a white jade bottle from his arms and said, "I've been watching you from the tree for a long time, but Xue's martial arts have grown a lot." The wind coughed and interrupted, "What's the wine you brought back?" So mysterious "

Ray pretended to lean against the tree, "Have you ever heard of Fang?" "According to legend, Yongfang is created by the Yongge Taoist people in Kunlun Mountain, and a sip can help increase the power of more than twice itself, but there is a price, and I really don't know what the specific price is" Lei said again, "The eldest brother is right, although the Fang can increase people's strength, it is based on the life grid as the force, if you drink too much, the consequences are unimaginable" After speaking, he sighed and shook his head

The wind understood him, got up and knocked him down, "You bastard, you are a fool! I think your wine is just the best tears! Lei covered his head in pain and ran to Chu Xiang's side, "I'll give Niangniang a cup, Niangniang will know after a sip!" Yan Hong couldn't see his original expression with a mask, he was a little worried now, this kid has a lot of ideas, in case there is any mystery in this wine...

Thinking about it, he snatched the wine handed to Chu Xiang, smelled the fragrance of the fine wine, and after taking a sip, his face turned red under the mask, this wine... It's really a hidden mystery. Lei saw that Xue's face was still like frost and breathed a sigh of relief, took the wine cup and poured another one, "Please smile" The peach blossom eyes flashed, like stars in the night sky

After Chu Xiang took the wine cup, he covered it with his sleeve and sniffed it gently, then took a sip carefully, and there was no trace of spicy feeling in the wine! On the contrary, it is cool and sweet, and if you taste it, you will find that there seems to be a faint floral fragrance inside? Before she knew it, she drank a cup, and Yan Hong's eyes were red at this time, and the wine cup was snatched by Lei after he used it... She didn't wipe it either... The hand under the strong suit clenched into a fist, and the breathing might as well be heavier

Feng sensed that something was wrong with him and anxiously asked Ray, "What's the mystery of your wine!" Don't tell me about it soon! Lei Haha smiled and squatted down and asked Chu Xiang, "Niangniang, do you feel uncomfortable?" "No" "Is the mother drunk?" "No" "Would you like to drink again?" That's what the other four people all looked at each other, what happened?

Chu Xiang saw their doubts, reached out and took the jade net bottle and poured half a cup "This wine is a red lotus" Lei said while applauding, "It is said that Xiang Guifei does not eat fireworks in the world, and if this is the case, this thing should only be tasted a few times in heaven and on earth!" Chu Xiang gave him a blank look, "Are you belittling this palace?" Haha, how! This is a compliment to the mother's discernment! ”

"Ahem, then you just said that the matter of Fang Fang can be related to this red lotus?" The night darkened his face and asked, "Huh? There is no "watching the two brothers get up and beat him before telling the reason" and so on! Although this wine has nothing to do with the fragrance, it has to do with the person who made the fragrance! Yongge Dao admired a woman when he was young, but the woman was more than 20 years older than him, so he specially made a kind of wine to use the top lotus flower in summer, this lotus is not the other lotus, the color should be red like blood, fragrant like a hundred flowers. In this way, after three years of drinking, you can maintain your appearance, and over time, you will rejuvenate and rejuvenate

Rejuvenation? How can there be such a miraculous thing in the world, the eternal song is already a rumor, Red Lotus? It's the first time I've heard of it" The wind interrupted Ray's rhetoric at an inopportune time

"Hey! Second brother, why don't you believe me! "Believe you? Didn't you lie to us less when you were young? You! …” Thunder chased the wind and beat wildly, and Xue, who had been silent, spoke, "This wine does not have the effect of rejuvenating as you say, but its internal medicinal properties are extremely good for women." See, no! It's still wise for the third brother! ”

Chu Xiang was inexplicably happy when he watched the cheerful fight between them, and he couldn't help laughing, and the two of them couldn't help but turn their heads to look, Yan Hong under the mask was also stunned, she he saw her on weekdays was cold and didn't talk and laugh, and when he saw her today, his heart fell even deeper

"What are you doing looking at this palace? Is there a flower on the face of this palace? The wind rarely blushed and thundered, returned to the stone bench and picked up the wine jug and drank three sips, and the night was worthy of being a big brother, and he was a lot more stable. Lei sat on the ground and took a sip of the wine jug, "How does Niangniang know about Red Lotus? As far as I know, in the Imperial City and not..."

Chu Xiang's eyes were a little confused, the leaves of the Bodhi tree fell, and he reached out to take a piece and gently stroked it. " When I was young in this palace, Ah Niang used to brew this wine, and the lotus flowers in the backyard were as red as blood and fragrant as a hundred flowers. Later, the lotus pond was filled in and turned into a bamboo forest..." The surroundings are quiet, only the slight cicada chirps sound from time to time, the moon climbs into the night sky at some point, and the Bodhi leaf in his hand is gently carried away by the wind and drifts away...

Xue watched her eyes appear faintly in the moonlight, and her heart ached for a while, "Miss Ayu, it's late at night, send Niangniang back" Ayu also felt that something was wrong, and tied the big cover for Chu Xiang and helped her get up "Tonight, the palace is very happy" After that, he slowly walked back to the meditation room with his skirt under the light of Ayu's night light

Under the Bodhi tree, Lei had no innocence on his face, looked at the jade bottle on the table and said solemnly, "I found out, there are no people outside the temple... It's just that in this courtyard.. It's hard to say" "Sure enough, the emperor's worries are right, then you just gave the mother the wine.." " Hide people's eyes and ears, the wine is indeed a red lotus, but it is mixed with no fruit, if someone does something in the meal, it will not succeed. ”

Yan Hong narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking about things in his heart, and didn't hear Lei's voice, "Third brother? Third brother? How stupid are you? The wind pulled down the thunder and poured him a big sip of wine, "Whatever! Something is wrong with your third brother! Drink! Poor Lei was poured several large pots by the wind, and his daughter was red, and finally blushed and lay on the table, holding the hand of the night and gnawing it, and the night was speechless and looked at the wind, "Pour him so much!" When you're drunk, you're out of shape! ”

Feng blushed and picked up a pot and took a sip "Big brother complains about me, Lei has been close to Xue since he was a child, and I'm afraid that something is wrong, and I have no choice but to do it."

Yan Hong looked at Lei very apologetically, "I was distracted by thinking about something, and I was paying attention... Yan has something unclear and dares to bother the two to inform one or two" " They are all brothers, how can they be troubled, and Yan asks the commander!"

"I just heard what you said, why hasn't Yan heard the emperor talk about it" Feng said in surprise, "Commander Yan came here, wasn't it arranged by the emperor?!" Yan Hong touched his nose in embarrassment, "It's Yan who came on his own..." Ye and Feng looked at each other, shook their heads and smiled, and relayed the truth of the matter, Yan Hong turned his head sideways and thought about it, "Concubine Rong? But the one who twisted his foot when he went up the mountain? Feng smiled "Exactly, the emperor also thinks that there must be a mystery in her invitation. I sent a few of us to protect the mother and investigate the matter at the same time."

"In this way, Yan will know." Yan Hong looked at the meditation room in the distance, and he was still not very relieved, "Yan has missed the company beforehand..." After saying goodbye to him at night and wind, he carried the thunder back to his residence.

Yan Hong stood on the opposite beam and watched everything gently, she hadn't slept yet, listening to Ayujiang's script on the side, occasionally hearing interesting places and smiling gently, she really became smiling, she looked so beautiful when she smiled, she was a proud peony that was not stained with dust and ash on weekdays, and she was much more approachable when she smiled.

He also knew that she came to Jing'an Temple the night before the trip, and after finding out that the emperor sent the Four Shadow Guards, he rushed to find Xue among the four brothers overnight, Xue's personality is a little similar to him, and after a conversation, Xue agreed to Yan Hong's request and exchanged identities with him, but he wanted Yan Hong's promise. He didn't say what the specific promise was, and Yan Hong was not in a hurry.

The candlelight on the opposite side dimmed, and she rested. Yan Hong sat down, with him here, he would definitely protect her safety.
