The alcohol is ready, so the rest is simple, just wait for the petals to dry and then make perfume.

Modern perfumes are made of a variety of essential oils, and there are also top notes, middle notes, and back notes, but now there is naturally no such condition, and essential oils are not easy to make, so Chen Siye's goal is very low, as long as there is a fragrance.

Perfume is easy to do as long as there are flowers, but the formula of flower water makes him a little difficult, it is certain to use mint as the main ingredient, but you can't just use mint, you have to add something to reconcile.

Just thinking about it, Xiangling knocked on the door and entered his room, holding a letterhead in his hand, "Childe, the porter sent a letter from the Pingxi Palace, which seems to have been written by the prince of Pingxi to the prince." ”

"Oh? Take it for me to see. ”

After taking the letterhead, Chen Siye opened it and couldn't help laughing, it turned out that Jin Hongtai wanted to invite him to Pingxi Wangfu to paint a portrait of Jin Hongyi. The letter said that Jin Hongyi sent someone to invite Chen Siye yesterday, but he didn't expect that the person who came to invite him didn't even enter the door of the county lord's mansion, and was turned away twice in a row.

Because Chen Siye showed his might at the birthday banquet, the number of people who came to ask for words and paintings these days is countless, and the porter came to report them one by one at the beginning, but Chen Siye was disturbed by it, so he told the porter that no matter who it was in the future, he would refuse.

But I didn't expect the county lord of Xuanyang to send someone to come, for the exotic beauty of the county lord of Xuanyang, Chen Siye has always kept it in mind, although he is surrounded by beauties, but Chen Siye can't help but feel itchy in his heart, if it is an ordinary woman, then forget it, but the lord of Xuanyang is not ordinary, not to mention that the lord of Xuanyang seems to have some interest in him.

So Chen Siye said to Xiangling: "The person who sent the letter hasn't left yet, right?" You tell him to go back and tell the prince that I will go in the afternoon. ”

Xiangling answered and was about to go out, but suddenly a voice came: "Where are you going?" ”

Before the person arrived, the voice had already come first, but it was Ming Yuesu and Qiu Ju who came together, and the person who spoke was Ming Yuesu.

Chen Siye hurriedly put his hands behind his back, crumpled the letterhead, and said in his heart that he didn't dare to be seen by the two, and said with a smile on his face: "Senior sister, Qiu Ju, why are you here?" ”

Xiangling said a blessing to the second daughter and left first, and Qiu Ju said, "What were you doing just now?" The smell of wine wafted to our Wei Ruixuan, and Xiaochan was almost drunk from the smell of wine. ”

Ming Yuesu also asked, "What is the stove in your courtyard for?" It's strange, but use this stove to cook wine? ”

Seeing that they didn't continue to ask him where he was going, Chen Siye couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he thought that Jing Qing was drunk enough to lick it, but he didn't expect Xiaochan to get drunk just by smelling the smell, but it really surprised him, and he almost choked on saliva.

"Ahem, how is Xiaochan? You okay? ”

"Xiaochan is fine, but she is a little dizzy."

Chen Siye breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The one I built is not a stove, it's called a still, and it's for you to make some good things." ”

"What's good?" Mingyue Su said with great interest.

"Keep it secret, and you'll know it then."

Mingyue Su sighed, and said, "Don't say it." Hey, by the way, where did you just tell Xiangling to go? ”

Chen Siye's heart tightened, isn't this topic in the past? Why did you ask again?

"Uh... Nothing, just going out and doing something. Chen Siye said with a little weakness.

Ming Yuesu rolled her eyes and asked again, "What's the matter?" I've heard you say something like that

, are you going to which palace? ”

As soon as he heard this, Qiu Ju's eyes on the side immediately sharpened, and Chen Siye, who was looking at it, was apprehensive.

"Yes.. It's to go to Pingxi Palace, and it's not.. It's nothing, it's just that the prince of Pingxi asked me to meet, and he didn't know what to do with me. ”

However, Ming Yuesu seemed to have seen through his thoughts, and said with a chuckle: "I heard that King Pingxi has a daughter of a county lord who looks like a flower and jade, and I also asked if you are married, shouldn't you go to her?" ”

Chen Siye saw sweat on his forehead, and said in his heart Qiu Ju why he even told Ming Yuesu about this, glanced at Qiu Ju and said: "What did Senior Sister say, I don't know what the county lord is at all, I have only met once, I have long forgotten what she looks like, what to do with her, Senior Sister should not be joking." ”

Mingyuesu snorted and said, "It's not the best, it's like that kind of barbarian, it's really blind if you can look at it." ”

Although Chen Siye disagreed with Ming Yuesu's prejudiced words in his heart, how dare he say half a word, and only agreed with it.

"Since that's the case, then you don't need to go to this Pingxi Palace, if you are free, just wait for the afternoon to teach me the trick of mixing Yuan sword qi, and then talk to our sisters."

Chen Siye said in his heart that I don't know any tricks, so he said with a bitter face: "Senior sister, just now I also asked Xiangling to talk back, if I don't regret it, how can I behave as a person?" Besides, I'm going to find the prince, not the county lord, how can I lie to my sister. ”

But Mingyuesu still didn't worry about him, and snorted and said to Qiu Ju: "Qiu Ju, you come with him in the afternoon, watch him, and he will hook up with the county lord." ”

As soon as he heard this, Chen Siye secretly said cool, and Qiu Ju followed, but he had to keep a distance from Jin Hongyi.

I only heard Qiu Ju say: "Sister Ming, don't worry, I will follow him and see how he dares." "This difference makes Qiu Ju like it tightly.

Mingyue nodded with satisfaction and looked at Chen Siye and said, "Don't think too much, let Qiu Ju follow you, so as not to encounter anything again, and you also have a helper." ”

Chen Siye secretly slandered to himself, are you deaf to me? But he didn't dare to resist, so he had to say listlessly: "Thank you Senior Sister Qiu Ju for your understanding." ”

The two daughters looked at each other and smiled, and left arrogantly.

Chen Siye sighed, thinking that he would not forget it, but at this time, he had already asked Xiangling to reply to others, and they had invited him several times, so he couldn't refuse at all.

But he woke up to the fact that he and Jin Hongyi had no personal relationship, so why should he be so afraid? Qiu Ju will go if she wants to go, anyway, it's a portrait, and she doesn't want to do anything unseemly.

Thinking about it like this, Chen Siye suddenly had confidence.

In the afternoon, Chen Siye and Qiu Ju took a carriage to Pingxi Palace.

Although the king of Pingxi is not in the capital all the year round, when he reaches this status, he will have a house in the capital no matter where he is.

However, Jin Hongtai and Jin Hongyi do not have this kind of treatment, and naturally they also live in the Pingxi Palace.

The prince Jin Hongtai is the successor of King Pingxi, so naturally he doesn't need to buy another mansion, these will be his sooner or later.

And the mansion of the county lord is generally in the fiefdom, and although the county lord of Xuanyang now has a title, he has not been married, so even in Xizhou, he lives in the Pingxi Palace.

As for Le Xuan, she is an exception, she is the only county lord who has been given a mansion in Beijing.

In just a few minutes, the carriage stopped and arrived at the Pingxi Palace.

Chen Siye couldn't help but be surprised, he didn't expect the Pingxi Royal Mansion to be so close to the County Lord's Mansion

After getting out of the carriage, before the two of them could report their names, a servant greeted them with a warm face: "But Chen Zhizhao? ”

Chen Siye nodded and said, "It's me." ”

"Chen Gongzi, please, my son-in-law is waiting for you." He didn't ask Qiu Ju's identity.

Following this servant, Chen Siye and Qiu Ju entered the Pingxi Mansion together.

This Pingxi palace is also very chic, but Chen Siye is well-informed now, and he has been to the palace several times, so naturally he will not look around like Grandma Liu before.

However, entering this Pingxi Palace, it is like entering a foreign land, where Caucasians can be seen everywhere, and the color of their hair and pupils is also different.

To say that Caucasian people do have some advantages in height, I saw many maids along the way who looked like 170+.

In fact, Jin Hongtai Jin Hongyi and the brothers and sisters are not low, and now Chen Siye should have a look of 178cm, but he is still half a head shorter than Jin Hongtai, and Jin Hongyi is only one line shorter than him.

I followed the servants to a garden, and from a distance, I saw Jin Hongtai standing in the pavilion with his hands in his hands.

The servant stepped forward quickly and said, "Childe, Gongzi Chen has arrived." ”

Jin Hongtai turned around at this time, "Brother Chen! Oh? There is also Miss Qiu Ju. ”

"I haven't seen you for a long time, Miss Qiu Ju is getting more and more beautiful."

Qiu Ju's crescent eyes bent up, and she smiled: "His Royal Highness Xie Shizi praises you." ”

Jin Hongtai just said hello to Qiu Ju, and then turned to Chen Siye and said, "Brother Chen, you are really difficult to invite, sister..."

As soon as he heard that he was going to mention Jin Hongyi, Chen Siye secretly said that it was not good, and quickly coughed to interrupt him: "Ahem, cough, cough!" As soon as I saw Brother Jin's letter, I immediately rushed over. ”

Then he said, "I don't know what Brother Jin called me this time?" ”

Saying that, he glared at Jin Hongtai, but he couldn't reveal that he came to paint a portrait of Jin Hongyi.

But it's a pity that Jin Hongtai didn't understand his eyes, and when he saw that he kept squeezing his eyes, he thought his eyes were in the sand or something.

I only heard Jin Hongtai say strangely: "Didn't you already say it in the letter?" Please Brother Chen to give..."

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!" Chen Siye coughed again, interrupting him.

After he finished coughing, Jin Hongtai said with some worry: "Brother Chen, but his throat is uncomfortable?" ”

Chen Siye couldn't help but choke speechlessly, and heard Jin Hongtai say to the maid outside the pavilion: "Go and brew a cup of pear tea with the pear paste made by my little sister and serve it to Brother Chen's throat!" ”

Chen Siye held his forehead, Brother Secret Dao is really a good assist, he can already feel Qiu Ju's cold eyes on the side.

He didn't give up, and continued to give Jin Hongtai a look, plus quietly gesticulating, hoping that he could understand what he meant.

This time, Jin Hongtai finally understood what he meant, and couldn't help but be a little forgiving.

"Cough, I invited Brother Chen to come today because I wanted to ask Brother Chen to paint a portrait of my mother, but after dinner, the queen mother suddenly went out for something, so let Brother Chen run for nothing, and ask Brother Chen to forgive me."

Seeing that Jin Hongtai finally woke up, Chen Siye was very relieved: "Brother Jin, it just so happens that I haven't seen Brother Jin for several days, and it's also excellent to talk to Brother Jin." ”

"But I want to see Brother Chen's painting skills... By the way, why don't Brother Chen paint a portrait of her sister? It also opened my eyes. Jin Hongtai's acting skills are online, which naturally leads the topic to the portrait of Jin Hongyi.
