Volume 2 Blue Pupil Joy Chapter 57 The Concubine's Academy
Soon after Zhao Yun returned to the Fushui Academy with the steps of Xiao Jianci, it rained heavily. It was getting dark. Zhao Yun paced around boredly, walked to the verandah for a while, and looked at the large tank of watercolor fish he raised in the yard from a distance. After a while, I walked into the boy's west wing and saw what the boy was doing. After a while, he walked back to the main hall and put the piano case back on, intending to stroke the song he stroked in the desert again today. But where can I still think of that song? Moreover, Zhao Yun's own mood has also changed, which is completely different from his mood when he was in the desert. It's so chaotic, and in a blink of an eye, it's the end of the unitary time.
Zhao Yun had a full and tumultuous day. The happiness when I got up in the morning suddenly turned into despair and resentment, and then I met the king of Yushui County in the desert of Yulin Garden, and miraculously became better through the sound of Xiao Jian's flute. This is really the most tumultuous day Zhao Yun has had since he became sensible. Zhao Yun couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. But he loves this strange feeling now.
Zhao Yun lay in front of the window, looking at the pouring rain in the Fushui Academy, and was stunned.
It rained heavily. Everything in the yard was a blur. Strings of rainwater flowed from the eaves, like a beaded curtain of pearls hanging from the roof. Zhao Yun's head was spinning rapidly, one moment it was Hua Yun, and the other time it was Xiao Jian.
Zhao Yun recalled his encounter and conversation with Xiao Jian. He enjoyed his conversation with Jane. Xiao Jian is right, the two of them are rare bosom friends. Although the two have just met, through the piano and the flute, the two have achieved a heart-to-heart connection. This somewhat alleviated his resentment towards Hua Yun.
But Zhao Yun understands his heart. He likes Hua Yun. Zhao Yun's boy had already reported it, saying that Hua Yun had come to the Fushui Academy several times today, but the boy didn't dare to tell Hua Yun that Zhao Yun was in the Yulin Garden. The boy said that he didn't know if Hua Yun would come at night.
Zhao Yun was very entangled in his heart. He didn't want to see Hua Yun. But when he heard that Hua Yun had come several times, he was a little happy in his heart. He didn't want to face Hua Yun face to face now, but he warmly hoped that Hua Yun could come from the bottom of his heart. Because, he hadn't seen Hua Yun all day. It's strange to have the feeling of wanting to see and not wanting to see at the same time.
A flash of lightning flashed, followed by a loud thunderclap.
There was a knock at the door of the Fushui Academy. It was the knocking of the knocker.
"Hua Yun, it must be Hua Yun who is here!" Zhao Yun thought. He was a little excited. He wanted to lose his temper at Hua Yun. He wanted to see what Hua Yun would say. "Maybe he'll change his mind. After all, I'm Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun thought to himself. Zhao Yun hid in the bedroom, he wanted to act like he didn't want to see Hua Yun and didn't forgive Hua Yun.
The boy went to open the door.
Zhao Yun heard that Hua Yun had already come in. Hua Yun walked unhurriedly. "He's a bastard, but he is leisurely, he left me dry all day, and made me angry, but he is not in a hurry, and he walks so unhurriedly." Zhao Yun lay on the pillow, his ears closely tracking Hua Yun's footsteps and sounds.
"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? Is it raining? It wasn't Hua Yun's voice.
Zhao Yun raised his head. It's Jane!
Zhao Yun jumped down from the couch and said with a panicked expression: "Your Highness, I'm sorry, I missed the distance." I didn't know it was you, Your Highness. ”
"Didn't you say it, don't call me Your Highness, call me Jane."
"Okay, Jane. I'm sorry. Why didn't the boy report it?! ”
"I told him not to report it. There's no need to stir up a crowd, isn't it, allow? Jane said with a smile.
Zhao Yun cleaned up his hair and clothes, nodded, and said, "Why are you here?" ”
Xiao Jian raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile, "You don't welcome me, do you?" ”
"No, no, no. You misunderstood me. I mean, now that it's raining so hard, why did you come here in the rain? Zhao Yun actually blushed.
Xiao Jian took out a long silk scroll from his bosom and said, "I'm here to bring you this." ”
"What is this?"
"Can't you just open it and see it?" Xiao Jian said.
Zhao Yun took the silk scroll and slowly opened it, stunned.
This is the score of the piece I composed today.
"How do you remember? I just wanted to stroke it again, but I can't remember it all. Zhao Yun asked in surprise.
"Your music is so well written, how can I forget it?"
"Thank you, Your Highness, oh no, Jane ......," Zhao Yun said.
Zhao Yun put away the silk scroll, carefully put it in a brocade box, then turned around and took Xiao Jian to the main hall, invited Xiao Jian to sit down, and instructed the boy outside the door to serve tea.
The boy already knew that this visitor was the king of Fushui County, and he served with great care.
"Your Highness, this is our son's favorite concubine Jin Xuan, a special product of the Fei Liu Mountain, please taste it." The boy said.
"Concubine Jin Xuan, what an interesting name. How come I haven't heard of this kind of tea? Xiao Jian looked at the pale golden tea soup in the delicate tea cup and asked.
The boy took a plate of tea on the ground and said, "Your Highness, this is roasted from the leaves of an ancient tea tree on the Fuliu Mountain." Our son-in-law baked it himself, so it can't be bought in the world. ”
"A lot of mouths. You go down first. Zhao Yun looked at the boy and said. The boy grimaced, put down the teapot, bowed to Xiao Jian and Zhao Yun, and retreated.
"Mujing? Is that the name you gave the boy? ”
"Hmm."
"The names you have chosen for the boys are so chic. Mujing? How do you write these two words? Xiao Jian looked at Zhao Yun and asked.
"The case of the well, the well of the well. The wild name of the mountain villager, His Royal Highness smiled. I took it all randomly, and there was no order. Zhao Yun said.
"Mujing. Really chic. Just like you Jin Xuan tea. I'll try it first. Xiao Jian brought the tea cup to his mouth, took a sip lightly, and tasted it carefully.
"Good fragrant tea. Why doesn't your Jin Xuan tea have a hint of leaf green flavor? How is it cooked? Xiao Jian asked, nodding his head.
"Do you know about tea?" Zhao Yun stared at Xiao Jian and asked.
"I love tea. I like the tea from all over the world. But your tea tastes very unique, not like ordinary tea. ”
"This is my homemade tea. The method of making tea is also my own creation. Zhao Yun said with some pride. Hua Yun had also drunk his Jin Xuan before, but he didn't show such a surprise as Jian. Hua Yun only likes to drink. Zhao Yun couldn't help but think of Hua Yun again.
"How? Can you tell me? ”
"Absolutely. This is the leaf produced on an ancient tea tree that is hundreds of years old in Fuliu Mountain. Tea in other places, when picking, pay attention to the tea before the Ming Dynasty, but this ancient tea tree is very unique, it germinates very late, until the beginning of summer will not sprout, and every year is very punctual, regardless of the weather is cold or warm, it only sprouts on the day of the beginning of summer, and it grows up in one day. ”
"This is unheard of, and there are tea trees that sprout at regular intervals and grow in an instant."
"The strangest thing is not its germination."
"What's that, Yun?"
"It's its flowering."
"What's the odd law?"
"It blooms on time only on the day of frost every year, and when it blooms, the trees are golden and dazzling."
"No wonder this tea is so fragrant."
"Not really. Although it is magical, its leaves cannot make tea. ”
"Why?"
"If the leaves of this tea tree are boiled according to the ordinary tea boiling method, it will be extremely bitter, and the local tea master has tried a lot of cooking methods, but no matter how you cook it, you can't brew the aroma of the tea, only the mouth is full of bitterness, just like the bitter ordinary leaves." When Zhao Yun said this, he stopped talking, and his face showed an extremely proud look.
Xiao Jian looked at Zhao Yun's appearance and said with a smile: "But you can make it into tea, right?" ”
Zhao Yun nodded and said, "That's exactly the case." Guess how I did it, Jane? Xiao Jian noticed that this was the first time Zhao Yun couldn't help but call himself "Jane".
"How do you do that?" ”
"I made a roast oven with red clay below, with a thick layer of red clay in between, and a semicircular mud pot on top, and then took off the buds at noon on the day of the beginning of summer, put them directly into the mud pot, and lit the dead branches of the cypress, cinnamon and camphor wood of the Yanliu Mountain in the fire, and dried these tea leaves with a simmer. You can't see the smoke or the fire, you can only see a little bit of fire. It will be baked for nine days and nine nights. The fire can't be too big, and the leaves will be scorched if it's too big. The fire can't be too small, too small, and the leaves can't get rid of the astringency. ”
"It's a complicated way to make tea."
"Is this complicated? This is just the first step. ”
"Huh? Do you still want to bake? ”
"You can't roast it, and if you roast it again, the tea leaves will break." Zhao Yun said, "The next step is the most critical. The flowers of this tea tree will not be extinguished until a whole month of blooming. If you want to use a flower that has been removed, it must be a flower that has been removed, not a flower that is in full bloom. Use the flowers that have been removed, together with the dried tea leaves, and put them on the large cage drawer to steam and melt all the flowers. Then the steamed tea leaves are naturally dried. In this way, Jin Xuan was done. Zhao Yun's eyes were wide open, like a cute deer.
"Why don't you use flowers, but flowers that have been lost?"
"Flowers don't work. When the flowers of this tea tree are in bloom, the aroma is very strange, rich but unpleasant. Only after being removed from the tree does it have an elegant light fragrance, but the flowers that are removed have a very short aroma and do not last more than an hour. After more than an hour, the flowers that have fallen away will have no taste. These flowers, which are less than an hour old, are steamed and melted into the tea leaves to have the special fragrance of this golden Xuan. ”
"I didn't expect you to be a master of tea making. At such a young age, you were able to develop such a complex and advanced method of making tea. I don't think those old craftsmen who make tea are as skilled as you, right? Xiao Jian said.
"Actually," Zhao Yun scratched his ears with his hand and replied shyly, "Actually, it wasn't created by me, it was invented by the Songyan Dao people of Fuliu Mountain." I just watched and learned with him. ”
"Songyan Daoren, that's an immortal. Do you know the people of Songyan Dao? ”
"Hmm. When I was young, he happened to come to the house to look for me. Songyan Taoist said, I was born with a very strong demonic nature, and I need to practice with him for more than ten years to get rid of the demonic nature. Therefore, since I was a child, I went to the fairy cultivation in the mountain with the Songyan Dao people, and I could only go back to the house for one day a month. ”
"Demonic? What is demonic nature? ”
"Hehe, I don't know. Maybe it's too naughty. ”
"It seems that you are the fairy child of Songyan Dao?"
"I'm just his apprentice, he has his own fairy."
"No wonder you are different from others, you have a fairy aura on your body, it turns out that you are a high disciple of Songyan Dao."
"Don't dare. Jane, you've won the prize. You really have a fairy aura in you. ”
"I envy you, Yun. I've never been anywhere, I've been in the Holy Capital all the time. ”
"It's also very good in the Holy Capital. You get to meet so many top musicians. ”
"That's right."
"How old are you?" Zhao Yun asked.
"I'm fifteen years old."
"You're only fifteen, but why do you look so much older than me? I thought you were a big brother. It turned out to be a little brother. Zhao Yun exclaimed.
"Haha. Little brother. This title is very interesting, and it means a lot. ”
"Then will you be able to go to Fushui County next year?"
"Yes. I'll go when I'm married. ”
"When the time comes, I'll take you to play in the Yanliu Mountain. Let's go find the Songyan Dao people together. ”
"Okay. Thank you, yes. ”
"Thank you, Jane."
"Thank me for what?"
"Thank you for braving such a heavy rain today to bring me the score."
"I'm here today, but there's something else to do, yes."
"What's the matter?"
"I'm going to live in Fushui Academy, too."
"Huh? You're coming to live with me? ”
"Are you welcome to me, yes?"
"Well, of course you're welcome. I don't have a companion in the holy capital. Of course you are welcome. It's just that this Fushui Academy is too small. However, when the time comes, I will be able to stay in the West Wing, where there is still a guest room. Zhao Yun said happily. Xiao Jian could see that Zhao Yun really liked to let him come over to live.
"Thank you, Yun. However, you don't have to go to the West Wing to stay. ”
"No, I can't let you live in a wing. You are His Royal Highness the King of the County. ”
"I don't have to live in a wing."
"Do you want to live with me?" Zhao Yunhu said with a fan of his eyes.
"Not at all. We moved to another Fushui College to live. My father and mother have given permission to change the large side hall in the northeast corner of Taixue into a new Fushui Academy, and we both live there. ”
"Oh. All right. Listen to you. When to move? ”
"I'll move in three days."
"So fast. My stuff hasn't been packed yet. ”
"You don't have to clean it up. I'll ask the chamberlain of the Changqiu Palace to help you clean up. ”
"When I get there, can I still take the well with me? He grew up with me, and although he was a little more naughty, he was still very sensible and capable. Zhao Yun said seriously, looking afraid that Jian Jian would not agree.
"Hahaha. Of course, you can, and the other two servants can also bring it. ”
"That's good. Thank you, Jane. Zhao Yun was very happy. However, Zhao Yun was a little disappointed, what if Hua Yun came to look for him tomorrow and couldn't find it. He has now completely forgiven Hua Yun.
"I have to go, Yun. The Changqiu Palace is about to give the key. I'm going to accompany my brother in Prince Jiarong's mansion these days, and I can't come to see you. When we move to the new Fushui Academy in three days, you can tell me about the Fushui County, okay? Xiao Jian asked with a smile.
"Okay." Zhao Yun said with a smile.
Xiao Jian stood up, and Zhao Yun found that Xiao Jian was originally wearing clogs. It was a pair of incomparably delicate clogs, and they looked exactly like their own, and even those clogs were exactly like their own.
The rain was even heavier.
Xiao Jian left in a sedan chair.
Zhao Yun looked at Xiao Jian's back and the heavy rain that was leaning down, and he was distracted for a long time.
What a strange experience. I just met Xiao Jian, and I was about to live with him in a new Feishui Academy.
Zhao Yun was still lying on the side of the bed, listening to the sound of rain, thinking about the waterfalls and streams of Fuliu Mountain, thinking about the delicious mushroom soup cooked by the boy of Songyan Dao, the crane used by Songyan Dao people for travel, thinking about what Xiao Jian said, and fell asleep.
A thunderclap woke Zhao Yun up. He didn't know when he had a big square scarf draped over his body. He lifted his arm, which was a little numb, shook it a few times, looked at the rain outside, and got out of the table in front of the windowsill listlessly, and turned to go back to the bedroom to sleep.
When I turned around, I saw a person.
A soaking wet and embarrassed man.
Hua Yun!
Zhao Yun's qi and blood all surged to his face in an instant. But Zhao Yun's heart was a little happy. He thought that Hua Yun would not come, and he sulked for a while. But happily, Hua Yun finally came. He was all drenched, all over his body. He wanted to wipe the rain off Hua Yun's body.
Zhao Yun turned his head over, tears streaming down his face.
"Still angry?" Hua Yun asked softly.
"Don't ask me." Zhao Yun said angrily.
"Alright. Allow. I can see it all. You're not mad at me anymore, are you? You see, the corners of your mouth are laughing. Hua Yun's words were like a prodigal son, but his tone was like a pleading. Zhao Yun really has no choice, he really has no way to take Hua Yun.
"Fuck off. I never want to see you again. Zhao Yun threw the large square scarf on the ground. Striding to the door of the main hall, he pointed to the door and said, "Get out!" Never let me see you. ”
Hua Yun ignored Zhao Yun, bent down to pick up the big square scarf on the ground, and said, "Look at you." Why don't you go to bed when you sleep? The atmosphere of the Holy Capital is very cold, unlike our Fushui and Liuchuan, be careful of catching a cold. When the time comes, I don't care about you. ”
Zhao Yun was very happy in his heart, he just wanted Hua Yun to talk to him like this. Hua Yun ignored himself and did not follow his own chagrined emotions, which made him feel happier and happier than Hua Yun taking his words and following his own chagrined emotions.
Zhao Yun looked at Hua Yun and stopped talking. He wanted to hear what Hua Yun had to say to him.
Hua Yun walked up, lowered his head, like a child who had made a mistake, and said, "Yes." Do you think I'm a hooligan? Hua Yun's eyes are very cunning, but they are also very cute.
Zhao Yun tilted his head and said, "What do you say? ”
"I am, I am, I am. I'm a hooligan. Hua Yun said busily. The speed of speech is extremely fast.
Zhao Yun sneered. But he immediately put away his smile.
Hua Yun took Zhao Yun into his arms, and Zhao Yun struggled to push Hua Yun away. But Hua Yun clung to it, but he didn't let go. Zhao Yun stopped struggling, hugged Hua Yun and cried.
Hua Yun didn't comfort Zhao Yun and didn't say anything.
Zhao Yun stopped crying, stared at Hua Yun and said, "You know now, I am different from you. Are you looking down on me? ”
Hua Yun grimaced and said, "You are already my person, how can I look down on you?" ”
Zhao Yun was amused again, he wiped a handful of snot with his hand, deliberately wiped it on Hua Yun's body, and said, "You don't want me, and I can't marry a daughter-in-law." I'm so pathetic. ”
"Who said I don't want you anymore. I'll raise you for the rest of your life. Hua Yun said.
"Fuck off. Who wants you to support me for the rest of my life? Zhao Yun sat down and said, "I'm angry now." ”
"I was wrong, Yun."
"It's okay, I've forgiven you. That's good, too. ”
Hua Yun didn't know what Zhao Yun thought, so he changed the topic and said, "I see who are you talking to on the desert, and you have such a good conversation?" ”
"How do you know I'm in the desert?"
"I can't find you anywhere, I'm going crazy. Seeing that I was pitiful, Mujing told me. ”
"This mouthy well."
"If I can't find you, I'll die."
"Come on, you."
"Really, yes."
"Oh. All right. ”
"What do you mean by 'oh, okay'?"
"I just don't want to pay attention to you. Hey. ”
"You haven't told me yet, who is talking to you in the desert?"
"It's His Royal Highness the King of Fushui County."
"Is it His Royal Highness the King of Fushui County? How did you come to know him? ”
"I don't know him. It was on that desert that I met. ”
"Oh."
"I'm going to live with him tomorrow."
"Huh? What's with what? I'm not ......, but you don't want that, right? ”
"What?! Can you think of something else in your head? He is the king of Fushui County, and he will live in Fushui Academy from tomorrow. But it's not here, it's His Majesty and the Queen Mother who have opened up a side hall to make a new concubine water academy. Naturally, I'm going to go and live with them. ”
"Oh. Scared the hell out of me. That's a good thing. The king of Fushui County will go to Fushui County next year. You are with him, and there is good. ”
"He's very interesting, he understands music, and he understands tea. More interesting than you. ”
"Impossible! Sling the bull! How could it be more interesting than me? How can there be anyone in this world who is more interesting than me? Hua Yun regained his former brilliance.
Zhao Yun looked at him and smiled.
It's a kind of ease after letting go. Zhao Yun knew that Hua Yun was different from him. Zhao Yun originally hated Hua Yun deeply, but after a day of going around, Zhao Yun had completely figured it out: this is something that cannot be forced. With today's confrontation, Zhao Yun also understood Hua Yun's intentions. Although he was disappointed, he was even more reluctant to lose Hua Yun.
"You'll be my brother in the future, right?" Zhao Yun said with tears in his eyes.
"I was originally your brother Yun."
"Nope. It's not Brother Yun, it's an elder brother. It's the kind of brother who is like a brother, you know? ”
"Hmm. I know. You won't be upset, yes. ”
"What do you say?!"
"If you have to be like me, I can. As long as you don't ignore me, I'm willing to do anything. ”
Zhao Yun cried, he hugged Hua Yun and said, "Okay." It's good to have your words. I'm not going to ask you and me what happened. What do you think of me? You're my brother, starting today. ”
"Why wouldn't I want to be your brother? It feels like I'm rusty! Hua Yun stroked Zhao Yun's head and said.
"Don't tease me. Be careful that I'm going to be like you. ”
"So you're a little whore." Hua Yun said with a smile.
"You're the whore." Zhao Yun pushed Hua Yun away, pointed at Hua Yun with his finger and said, "Although you are my brother, I still want to call you Brother Yun." ”
"You can tell me anything. It's okay to just call me a whore. ”
"I don't call you a whore. I'm going to call you a whore, as if to declare to the whole world that I've been killed by you. ”
"That's what you said."
"Flim Flam."
"I won't be called Hua Yun in the future, just Flam."
"Hehehehehehe." Zhao Yun let out his characteristic smirk.
"You will find someone who loves you and loves you, who loves you as much as I do, but at the same time is the same as you and different from me." Hua Yun's eyes were also filled with tears. He felt a little sorry for Zhao Yun. When he saw Zhao Yunfei running out this morning, he regretted it very much. As long as Zhao Yun likes it, even if he and him are like that, what can they do? He regretted that he shouldn't have hurt Zhao Yun. He decided never to hurt Zhao Yun again.
"I think I'll find it too."
"When the time comes, you have to tell me, and I will help you see if he is reliable."
"Hmm."
"Have you forgiven me?"
"Nope."
"Did you really not forgive me?"
"Really."
"Good. Then I'm relieved. ”
"Hehehehe." It's Zhao Yun's characteristic giggle again. The laughter is free, without a trace of entanglement. The laughter is also pure, without a hint of impurities. It was a kind of psychic laughter, which made people feel distressed, and it also made people forget everything, forget men and women, forget everything, only transparency and joy. This is a smirk that only Zhao Yun can make.
In Zhao Yun's smirk, Hua Yun suddenly felt that Zhao Yun seemed to have grown up all of a sudden.
