Fourteen: Fate is staggered
In the courtyard, the official ladies looked at Du Yujiao one after another.
Du Yujiao is the same age as them, twelve or thirteen years old, but her aura is much higher than them. She was wearing a plum-red floor-length dress, the fan in her jade hand was shaking lazily, her eyebrows and eyes looked around proudly, and her delicate and bright face had the potential to crown the crowd.
In Yao Mengyuan's eyes, she was so angry that she was covered in blood and retrograde!
Du Xuemo, who was behind Du Yujiao, looked at the arrogant golden peacock blankly.
Her delicate and indifferent face is not conspicuous in the crowd, and she is wearing a light blue elegant and simple dress, which hides her from everyone.
In order to avoid the disaster of the fish pond, she quietly ran out of the flower garden. There are three flower beds in the backyard of Yao's mansion, and Du Xuemo walked the path, bypassing the green bushes, and wanted to go to another flower garden, but he didn't know that it was close to Mrs. Yao's courtyard.
There were already a few graceful women in the flower garden, and when they saw someone coming, they turned their eyes over. Du Xuemo's footsteps immediately stopped, and subconsciously moved to the side, but unexpectedly, he stepped on the foot of a person behind him, and the woman was in pain.
Du Xuemo turned around in surprise and apologized without raising her head: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, miss, I didn't notice you behind me, so ......"
The woman interrupted coldly: "It's okay, you don't have to be so alarmed. ”
Du Xuemo was stunned, and when she looked up, she was actually a girl about ten years old, with white skin like snow, as if it could be broken by blowing, and under her eyebrows was a pair of clear and indifferent eyes, with a faint indifference and coldness in her eyes.
Du Xuemo took a look again, Su Qianli was wearing a tender yellow chrysanthemum skirt, which was clearly the color of a lively girl, and coupled with Su Qianli's love and ignorance look.
It's kind of cute......
Du Xuemo coughed twice and asked her, "My name is Du Xuemo, and I am from the Marquis of Ningyuan's Mansion...... What about you? Are you here alone? "It's only so big, and I've been invited to the meeting, Mrs. Yao is really ...... Even the children are not spared.
Su Qianli nodded, "Su Qianli, from the Hengguo Mansion." ”
“……”
She had heard of Su Shangfeng and Su Yasheng of the Protector's Mansion, but she had never heard of this Su Qianli. Du Xuemo suddenly looked at her with some sympathy, it seems that she is the same as herself, she is a concubine.
The backyard of Yao's mansion is spacious and elegant, green plants and flowers are convenient, I heard that Mrs. Yao loves flowers and plants, and the backyard has collected a variety of precious and rare varieties, but I don't know if there are any herbs that can be used for medicine.
Su Qianli seemed to wander inadvertently to enjoy the flowers, but her eyes and nose kept looking for medicinal herbs.
Since returning to Beijing from Liyin Temple, she has never been in contact with medicinal herbs, and she doesn't know if her sense of smell has regressed.
In other words, when Du Xuemo guessed that Su Qianli was also a concubine, she couldn't help but want to be close to her and stick to her all the time.
Su Qianli was also speechless about this, and continued her journey to find medicine.
"Qianli, you ......", Du Xuemo's eyes suddenly widened, and he hurriedly shouted at her.
At this time, Su Qianli suddenly smelled a familiar smell, became interested, and said disappretently to Du Xuemo: "I'm here...... Yes! ”
There are steps behind you......
When she turned around, she stepped into the air, Su Qianli leaned back uncontrollably, and just when she thought she was going to be in close contact with the earth, a pair of gentle hands held her up.
Su Qianli looked up in an exclamation and saw the most peaceful woman in the world.
Jun Qingsu smiled and asked in a pure and quiet soft voice, "Little girl, are you okay?" ”
Su Qianli came back to her senses, straightened her sleeves a little embarrassed, "It's okay...... Thanks a lot. Glancing at the phoenix hairpin in her hair and the purple jade hook on her clothes, her eyebrows frowned, and the people of the royal family ...... Princess?
Mrs. Yao, who had just come out of the back room, raised her eyebrows and looked at Su Qianli, and asked with interest, "Is the little girl okay?" ”
Su Qianli raised her eyes to look at this noble lady with extraordinary bearing, dressed gracefully and luxuriously, with a pair of phoenix eyes slightly narrowed and shining. Su Qianli raised her eyebrows, met her gaze without fear, and thought to herself, Yao Feixue's appearance was probably inherited from his mother.
"Thank you for your care, the courtiers are fine."
"Although the flowers are beautiful, but people are more delicate than flowers, we still have to be careful about the road under our feet." Mrs. Yao looked Su Qianli up and down again. I couldn't help but secretly praise in my heart, I deserved to be the child of the eldest princess and Su Erlang, and I looked like a good one.
Su Qianli is thin, but her body is taller than ordinary women of the same age, and her height is shoulder to shoulder with Jun Qing, and now the momentum of the princess is not weaker than her. But what attracted Mrs. Yao the most was the faint cold arrogance between her eyebrows.
Xu is a sympathetic relationship with the same military general's family, and Mrs. Yao can't help but feel a little more favor for this little girl.
Several official ladies who had never seen Su Qianli looked at her curiously,
"Who is this?"
"I don't know, I've never seen a weekday party."
"Well, if you have seen such a look, you will not be so faced."
"Whose concubine is it...... Didn't the lord of Hehuan bring a sister-in-law? ”
After the girl said that, several people covered their mouths and laughed lowly, their eyes looking at Su Qianli intentionally or unintentionally.
Jun Qingsu didn't know that Su Qianli was the daughter of the eldest princess, and when she saw that she was alone and there were no maids around, her first reaction was just like those official women. It's just that she didn't know that a concubine would have such a temperament, surprise flashed in her eyes, and she was also a little interested in Su Qianli: "I don't know if the girl is ......"
Su Qianli saluted her: "Su Qianli of the Hengguo Mansion has seen Her Royal Highness the Princess. ”
Jun Qingsu was stunned for a moment and sighed secretly: What a smart girl. Then he asked, "What are you smelling?" ”
Su Qianli thought that her movements were subtle enough, but she didn't expect to be seen by her all of a sudden, and her face couldn't help but be a little unnatural, "It's nothing, it's just the fragrance of flowers, I just smell it."
Mrs. Yao on the side asked slowly: "Miss Su San also likes flowers and plants?" ”
She actually called herself 'Miss Su San', Su Qianli did not move on her face, but her heart was turbulent, it seems that no noble lady is simple. She replied: "The flowers and plants are so bright and delicate, and looking at them can also cultivate the heart, Qianli likes it, but she is also a little curious about the types of flowers and plants." ”
Jun Qingsu felt fresh when he heard it, he had heard of people who loved flowers and plants, but he had never heard of people who were curious about this. "You're just that, could it be that you can distinguish the type of flower by smelling and seeming?!"
This girl is really smart. Looking at her glowing beautiful eyes, Su Qianli had no choice but to nod under pressure.
Jun Qing was overjoyed, "Then you might smell what kind of flower is behind me?" ”
Su Qianli sniffed twice and confirmed that it was Fang Cai's familiar smell before nodding and saying, "The flower behind you is bellflower." ”
The snow-white bellflowers seem to be inlaid in a thick green, and the wind comes and swings softly, but it is not the bellflowers.
Jun Qingsu smiled and said, "You have a great skill, can you pass it on?" ”
Su Qianli also smiled: "Qianli is not a gardener, her foundation is shallow, and she is afraid that she will be entrusted by the princess." ”
Relying on the sense of smell to identify flowers and plants is not something that can be done overnight, the type, appearance, and smell of flowers and plants must rely on the accumulation of little by little.
Jun Qing's eyebrows were soft, and he was not angry, as if he expected her to refuse, "It's okay." After a pause, he took Su Qianli's hand and asked: "I don't have a playmate in the palace to relieve my boredom, and I fell in love with you today, I don't know if you would like to come into the palace often to accompany me?" ”
Mrs. Yao's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes when she looked at Jun Qingsu.
This princess doesn't have a trace of shelf, can the palace raise such a soft and gentle person? Su Qianli thought silently in her heart, so she nodded: "It's Qianli's honor to be able to accompany the princess." ”
"I've never seen you so attentive to anyone before, Ziyu likes this little girl Su very much?" Mrs. Yao asked suddenly.
The smile on Jun Qingsu's face stiffened slightly, let go of Su Qianli's hand, and smiled softly at Mrs. Yao: "Qianli is young, but she is beautiful and intelligent, I like it very much." ”
Mrs. Yao's eyes darkened and she stopped talking.
The two walked in the flower shop, unable to figure out the princess's attitude, and the official ladies on the side did not dare to come forward to talk to them, so they went to Mrs. Yao. Su Qianli looked sideways at the soft-spoken princess beside her, and didn't know whether to cry or laugh for a while.
Where did she get the eyes of this princess, and was inexplicably close to her, Su Qianli was helpless or helpless.
Su Qianli glanced at the bellflower in Jun Qingsu's hand, "The princess likes bellflowers?" ”
Hearing this, Jun Qingsu's face stiffened slightly, and then smiled: "Hmm...... I like it. He turned the bellflower in his hand, looked at it for a while, and said, "I didn't find out how beautiful this flower was, but after you introduced it, I felt different." ”
Before, I haven't seen my aunt like any woman, although my aunt has never shown it, but she is undoubtedly the most advantageous person, after all, she grew up with A Ze since she was a child, and the friendship between childhood sweethearts is deep. Now, she sees a kind of affection and appreciation in her aunt's eyes.
It is the love and appreciation of a girl who is only ten years old.
Jun Qingsu glanced sideways at Su Qianli's delicate and fair face. is good-looking, but there is always a faint sense of cold alienation, almost subconsciously comparing her appearance with her.
When she grows up, she ...... Probably not as good as her.
"Princess, watch out for the steps." The maid behind him reminded him, Jun Qingsu came back to his senses in an instant, looked sideways at Su Qianli beside him, and found that she was concentrating on studying flowers and plants again, ignoring her as a princess.
Seeing her so focused, Jun Qingsu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled mockingly, feeling that his thoughts were so ridiculous, this is just a girl about ten years old, maybe the other party doesn't care at all, whether today's flower will be Mrs. Yao is looking for a wife for her son, only she is worrying.
Su Qianli really didn't care, because she didn't think about it at all, but was dazzled by the flowers in front of her.
This is nasturtium, this is crape myrtle, this is autumn ying, and ...... Lycoris!
Su Qianli's heart was slightly turbulent, delicate flowers are expensive, so many flowers, so many precious varieties, this Mrs. Yao actually has three flower beds. In a few budding grass shops, she also saw several exotic flower species.
Su Qianli stood at the bud shop and pondered quietly. Jun Qingsu bent down and looked: "The sprouts haven't grown yet, what's there to see?" ”
"It's all valuable varieties, and I want to see more."
Even seedlings? Jun Qingsu was stunned for a moment and smiled: "If you really like it, I can give you some." ”
Su Qianli's beautiful eyes instantly lit up.
"The vassal kingdom will pay tribute to some precious and exotic flowers and plants every year, there are many in the palace, most of those concubines and concubines don't care, next time I will help you pay attention."
"Thank you, princess." Su Qianli no longer racked her brain, and secretly wrote down Jun Qingsu's promise in her heart.
Looking at Su Qianli's pure eyes, Jun Qingsu once again sighed with his worries.
Su Qianli formed a relationship with Jun Qingsu in a daze. Many years later, she asked herself, if she hadn't met her at the beginning, would the fate of herself and Yao Feixue have changed.
Probably not, she thought. She always has to meet her, not in the morning and evening, she is so quiet and kind, and she doesn't have the courage to hurt such a kind woman.
Ring Ding Dong purple jade Rong, step shake treasure bun Yayin.
A heartfelt whisper, like listening to the clock at night in the West Chamber.
Wind chimes, soft love and kindness.
The dispute between Du Yujiao and Yao Mengyuan has entered a white-hot stage.
Du Yujiao's long, narrow and delicate eyebrows glared at Yao Mengyuan, and she snorted coldly between her noses. Lazily said: "What, this is your Miss Yao's hospitality?" ”
"Huh, guest?! Du Yujiao, you can't help but think too highly of yourself", Yao Mengyuan was taller than her, looked down at her, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a touch of arrogance: "Now this is not Anguo Temple, you have to weigh it carefully when you speak." ”
After that, a strange smile appeared on Yao Mengyuan's originally delicate appearance.
Du Yujiao's face changed slightly, and an ominous premonition suddenly rose in her heart, her beautiful eyes widened, and she said angrily: "What do you want to do?!" Don't forget, I'm the county lord of Ningyuan's Marquis Mansion! ”
Yao Mengyuan sneered: "It's just a county lord of the opposite sex, really treat it as yourself...... Is it a phoenix? ”
The ladies of the official family in the courtyard had already gone back to their homes, and the people in the courtyard were also sent down by Yao Mengyuan.
At this moment, in the courtyard, only Du Yujiao and her maidservant, Yao Mengyuan and her Qingqin are left.
Du Yujiao's eyes turned around, and she found that there was really no one under her. Come to think of it, Yao Mengyuan must have been calculated a long time ago, and he wanted to avenge her for the revenge of Anguo Temple that day.
Du Yu squeamishly laughed: "I thought that the young lady of the Zhenguo General's Mansion was so powerful, but now it seems that it is no more than that." ”
She suddenly leaned into Yao Mengyuan's ear and said, "That day in Anguo Temple, you couldn't rob me, and in the future, you won't be able to rob me!" The voice fell, took a step back, she shook her fan lightly, and looked at Yao Mengyuan lazily. Like a proud phoenix, overlooking the pheasants in the mire.
Still don't understand? Me and you are the difference between cloud and mud!
What if you are the daughter of the Yao family? Even if she is a county lord of the opposite sex, she is the county lord of a country after all, and she is the one who is given the title by the Queen Mother.
"If you dare to touch me today, the news will reach the palace tomorrow, you say, if the Queen Mother knows that something happened to me in the Yao Mansion, what will happen?"
Yao Mengyuan's eyes sank instantly, his hands clenched into fists, gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "Do you really think that I don't dare to touch you?!" ”
That day Anguo Temple, she wanted to go to Mrs. Yao to ask for a peace charm, when she saw the peach blossoms in the mountain temple one after another, somehow gave birth to a trace of sadness in the late spring, she was a boudoir girl, like all girls, full of expectations for her marriage, so she went to ask for a sign for herself.
Unfortunately, she met Du Yujiao, the arrogant and famous county lord of Hehuan like her.
Du Yujiao also came to ask for a signature for herself. Originally, they were two people who didn't know each other and had nothing to do with each other, but after Du Yujiao begged for her first sign, she threw the bamboo stick heavily in the hall, and her beautiful eyes glared at it, it was a sign.
She knelt not far away and glanced at the bamboo stick: Lonely
She retracted her gaze, laughed secretly in her heart, did not talk, but drew her own lot, the bamboo tube was upside down in her hand, click! A bamboo stick fell to the ground, especially abrupt in the silent temple.
She and Du Yujiao looked over at the same time, and when they saw the words on the bamboo stick, their faces were shocked!
Signed: Phoenix
Speaking of which, Du Yujiao also grew up in a honey pot since she was a child, covered by the Queen Mother when she went out, and was spoiled and spoiled by Ning Yuan Houye at home. looked at her own signing, and then looked at Yao Mengyuan's signing on the side, and it was such a vague sign, how could she get by in her heart!
When Yao Mengyuan was ecstatic and wanted to pick up the bamboo stick, Du Yujiao picked up the bamboo stick one step ahead of her. and arrogantly asked Yao Mengyuan to give up the bamboo stick.
How could Yao Mengyuan agree, that is-Feng!
The two arrogant and domineering people pinched each other. Unfortunately, Du Yujiao brought the guards of the Houfu on that day, and Yao Mengyuan only brought a maid from Qingqin.
Under the disparity in strength, Du Yujiao took her bamboo stick and walked away. The beam of the two was thus concluded.
