When the new courtyard was completed, Zhao Yuanwei and Xia Lin did not plan to buy it with great fanfare, but they just made an appointment with a few people who had close contacts with each other, plus a few that had good friends with Xia Mansion, prepared a simple banquet, and only did a small gathering.

The Xia family was born as an official, and it stands to reason that the emperor married a daughter and gave a few ministers, but this marriage was originally acquiesced by Empress Yide when she was alive, Zhao Guangyi did not betray the will of his deceased wife, and he couldn't stand Zhao Yuanwei's pleading, so he had to let go.

The maids led the way, and Zhao Yuanwei took Chai Xiyun's arm and asked with a smile, "Look at my courtyard, how is it compared to your West Flower Pavilion?" ”

"Lord Xia personally supervised the work, and the person who was the supervisor (the official office in charge of the construction) was busy for more than half a year, which is naturally not comparable to my Xihua Pavilion." Chai Xiyun pulled out a handkerchief and covered her face lightly, Zhao Yuanwei only raised her hand and tapped her forehead, grabbed Zhao Fuping with her backhand and said, "Look at this person, it seems that I have taken a lot of advantage, my yard is bigger, but it is not as particular as yours." ”

Although Zhao Fuping was used to the two of them laughing and noisy, he couldn't help but stop him every time, and said, "According to me!" The courtyard of the Horse Mansion is graceful and luxurious, and the West Flower Pavilion is elegant and refined, each with its own merits, why compare. ”

Chai Xiyun and the others smiled when they heard this, and quipped, "Look, this girl has said all the good things, but it seems that you and I are stingy." ”

After saying this, the three of them couldn't help but hide their faces and chuckle, and Zhao Fuping asked again, "Now that everything is ready, do we need to prepare anything?" ”

"My father entrusted the queen to prepare, she is perfect, she is indispensable, my future mother-in-law is a person who can run a family, and I am idle with Ruo'an." Zhao Yuanwei responded, "It's just that guarding this courtyard alone, it's always boring, just the two of you can come and accompany me from time to time." ”

Chai Xiyun smiled, "It's nice to say now, boring wants us to accompany you, and when you become a courtesy, I'm afraid that you don't want us to disturb your husband and wife again." ”

"You! No shame. Zhao Yuanwei said angrily, Chai Xiyun also smiled, Zhao Yuanwei looked at her proudly, and couldn't help but joke, "I heard that the son of the Xu family is handsome, I just hope that the prince of Xu will enter Beijing as soon as possible, and see what reason His Royal Highness the county lord uses to prevaricate the good intentions of our uncle." ”

"Naturally, it is a master" Zhao Fuping sent a meaningful look, which caused Chai Xiyun's face to turn red, Zhao Yuanwei was just about to open his lips to ask Zhao Fuping's meaning, but was interrupted by the oncoming Xia Lin, Xia Lin stood a meter away, and greeted Chai Xiyun and Zhao Fuping.

"Hey! How did you get here? Who accompanies the outsiders? Zhao Yuanwei stepped forward and asked.

"The second brother is with you!" Xia Lin stood up straight, responded softly, and then said, "Baochen is here." ”

"Cousin? Didn't you say that if there was something going on in the court today, you wouldn't come? Zhao Yuanwei looked at Chai Xiyun and asked.

"I don't know, let's go and see! Plus, there's one who travels with you! Xia Lin said, subconsciously glanced at Chai Xiyun, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously pulled a smile.

Chai Xiyun hurriedly avoided his gaze, and then followed Zhao Yuanwei to the flower hall, Gao Qiong did have something to do today, but he took Liulang's letter, wishing for the beauty of adults, so he put aside the things in his hand and accompanied him.

"Brother, it's a coincidence, the tea fruit in the flower hall has just been prepared, and you have arrived." Before entering the pavilion, Zhao Yuanwei made a joke.

When Gao Qiong and the others saw them, they were so busy that they each saluted, and responded, "The court took a lot of time to ask Sister Changqing for a cup of tea, not to mention that the design of the new house in the Horse Mansion is so exquisite, wouldn't it be a pity not to come and have a sneak peek." ”

"When my brother comes, let's take a good look." Zhao Yuanwei chuckled between her eyebrows, and then took a closer look at the man behind Gao Qiong, dressed in plain clothes and jade crown, with a handsome face, she felt familiar, and couldn't help but be stunned, and asked, "This is not... The six sons of the Yang family! ”

Zhao Yuanwei blurted out, Yang Yanzhao saluted again, and said respectfully, "Liulang took the liberty to come and disturb him." ”

Zhao Fuping looked sideways at Chai Xiyun and deliberately quipped, "Today, I have a lot of fate with the sixth son." ”

Yang Yanzhao was speechless for a while, slightly stunned for a moment, seeing that he was slightly embarrassed, Zhao Fu kept silent, she was a measured person, if there were only a few of their sisters today, it would not hurt to say a few more words, Xia Lin and Gao Qiong were here, and there was a small girl ring under the corridor, it was really inappropriate to continue talking, Zhao Fuping thought, and then covered his lips and said nothing.

I only heard Xia Lin say, "The sixth prince is also a rare guest, I have always had dealings with the eldest son of the Yang family, and the invitation was handed to the Yang family, looking forward to a son coming to the banquet, and when I didn't see anyone at such a time, I thought that you had thinned my face, but I didn't expect to wait with the elder brother of the Gao family." ”

"How dare Liulang thin Lord Xia's face." Yang Yanzhao explained, Gao Qiong said, "I originally pulled it here, thinking that he likes to watch these corridors and pavilions, and invited him to take a look, but it happens that Sister Yong'an is also there, but there are like-minded people." ”

Gao Qiong's words, everyone turned their attention to Chai Xiyun, she was down-and-out and generous, and she couldn't see half a bit of shame, so she moved to the table with a step, and opened her lips and said, "Since you are here to visit the garden, everyone drinks some tea, so they go around, just bored here, what's the fun!" ”

"The county lord is right, what's the fun of just boring here, it's not an outsider, everyone leads the little guy around at will, half an hour later I set up a banquet in the flower hall, and I also tasted the craftsmanship of the new chef in my house, there are outsiders in the front yard, I will miss a step first." Xia Lin arranged, made a half-salute, and left.

Gao Qiong continued, "I just rode a horse without paying attention, and I tore off the left placket, ask the county lord for the Lingyu girl, and help me mend it." ”

Lingyu was slightly stunned when she heard this, and hurriedly raised her eyes to look at Chai Xiyun, Chai Xiyun complained, "How old is my brother, and he is still so careless, Lingyu, you don't have to make him beautiful, lie on his body like a big centipede, and lose his face." ”

"Miss Lingyu's craftsmanship is not coincidental, but she lost the face of the county lord." Gao Qiong smiled and invited Lingyu to go along, and Lingyu got the permission of her master and hurriedly followed.

Zhao Fuping realized Gao Qiong's intentions with Xia Lin at this time, and hurriedly pulled Zhao Yuanwei's sleeve and said, "Didn't you say that you copied a sticker that day, and you didn't think it was satisfactory!" It's fine, I'll show you. ”

"Now!" Zhao Yuanwei was a little puzzled, but she had been pulled out a few steps by Zhao Fuping......

Chai Xiyun is a smart and clever person, how can he not see that a few people are acting strangely, and he has been holding back his laughter, until he saw Zhao Fuping and Zhao Yuanwei pulling away from the ground before chuckling, she laughed, Yang Yanzhao also laughed on the side, and then asked, "What is the county lord laughing at?" ”

Chai Xiyun's eyes flashed slightly, and he asked rhetorically, "What are you laughing at?" ”

The two looked at each other for a moment, and the smile on the corner of their mouths became more and more intense, and a warm spring mood rose around them......

Gao Qiong walked to the corner of the courtyard and stopped, Lingyu couldn't stop, almost pounced on him, and hurriedly asked, "Why didn't the little marquis leave?" ”

"Where are you going?"

"Didn't Master Hou tear off his clothes?"

Gao Qiong laughed in a low voice, "Miss Lingyu, everyone says that you are smart and clever, why did you make a mistake today, how old is Benhou, how can you be so careless and tear your clothes!" ”

Gao Qiong said, then hid sideways to the side, Lingyu asked, "Since the placket of the Hou Ye is not broken, then this is..." ”

"Yo! Listening to the girl's meaning, I also saw the affection between the two of them. ”

"The slave has been serving the county lord since childhood, well versed in the county lord's preferences, our county lord is cold and arrogant, in addition to the official family and a few princes, who dares to talk more when she reviews the painting, this Yang Liugongzi dares, the county lord is not unhappy, this is already an exception, a few days ago the sixth prince sent a "Ten Thousand Pine Wind Map", the county lord does not say, we can also see that she is happy, so many sons in the court, send more good things, the county lord which is not a glance at the reward of us, can be so favored by the county lord, full of up and down, It's just this one person......" Lingyu gushed endlessly, a smile bloomed on her face from time to time, Gao Qiong also smiled with her, looked at the pair of people not far away, and muttered, "If this is the case, it is also a match made in heaven." ”

Gao Qiong was full of joy here, but Zhao Yuanwei was worried after knowing everyone's intentions, and said repeatedly, "It's not proper, I said that you all seem to have other ideas, it turned out that you had this idea, but you have ever been afraid of the current situation." ”

"What is the situation today? The sixth son is not married, and the county lord is not hired, how is it inappropriate? Xia Lin poured a cup of tea with a pleasant face and said slowly.

"Let's just say that you are confused, my uncle recommended the son of the Xu family to enter the court, you and I know why we came, my father has acquiesced, and my aunt is not displeased, there is a chance that this matter will be nine times out of ten, let's settle down at this juncture to match her and Yang Yanzhao's affairs, isn't this a clear rebellion against the holy order?" Zhao Yuanwei sped up the speed of her speech, her words were full of worry, Xia Lin only smiled, "The princess is smart, can't you really see their affection, the so-called marriage is determined by heaven, we are just pushing the boat with the water, then again, even if the son of the Xu family is better than Liulang in his true appearance and talent, it can only be said that he is not coincidental, and it is too late." ”

Zhao Yuanwei's expression was sluggish, and Zhao Fuping said, "It's our master who can see it thoroughly, and you grew up with Xiyun in vain, so I really can't guess her thoughts." ”

Zhao Yuanwei bit her lower lip and sat down next to Xia Lin, "I don't think it's strange, it's just that Xiyun has always been willful, I'm afraid that she will lose her uncle's face for the sake of a Yang Yanzhao." ”

"The girl who grew up in the deep palace, of course, knows how to handle the size, when did Xiyun worry us." Zhao Fuping sat down and looked down at Xia Lin helping her refill the empty teacup, and the heat rising from the teacup gradually blurred her vision, like the confused road ahead, which was not yet known and difficult to explore.
