The first encounter in the plum garden, the first budding friendship
For a few days, because Taizong was not there, there was no need to worry about the bedtime, and because Xiao and Yu moved into Anren Hall early, only the two of them were left in the residence. In addition, there is nothing in the palace, not as complicated as everything at home, and because of the grace of the childish slave, Huayan has repeatedly come to visit in the name of the concubine......
Mei Niang actually lived a few days like a fairy.
On this day, it is already the lunar month.
Early in the morning, Mei Niang went out and saw that the talented people were in front of her, and it was snow-white. I was overjoyed, so I went, and wanted to recruit Suqin to go to the plum garden to enjoy the plum blossoms.
But because of the letter early, his father and brother were ordered to be on duty in the previous dynasty because His Majesty left Beijing these days, and he missed it, so he went to the table and asked for the concubine Wei in the four concubines of Guishu Dexian, and the concubine Yang saw her father and brother.
Today, it just so happened that the second concubine heard that the Yuan family was asking for a woman, and the Dao Yuan family was a hero, although the Yuan family had just entered the palace, it was inevitable that she was young and thought of her relatives, and Yi Zhi was approved.
So, she went to the plum garden by herself, without any palace people.
When I arrived at the plum garden, I saw a snow-white world like silver silk, and occasionally dotted with red plums like fire, which was really beautiful. I was overjoyed. Thinking about the previous dynasty, there were palace people who took plum petals and pasted them on their cheeks in winter, so as to get the emperor's luck, they smiled and also picked a plum blossom with golden stamens, carefully smoothed it, and took the face fat from their arms, lightly tapped it between the eyebrows, and glued the plum blossoms tightly between the eyebrows.
My daughter loves beauty, and so does she. It's just that I don't like fat powder to be cheesy.
At that moment, she finished her makeup, and ran to the lake to take pictures triumphantly. Who knew that the lake in the plum garden was not like a pure pool, but it was already frozen.
Feeling a little bored, the sky began to fall with fine snow, so she had to wrap up the silver silk fur she had brought with her, quickly find a plum forest, and stand under the plum tree.
But he didn't notice that in the pavilion not far away, a young man who was also dressed in silver fur was accompanied by two young boys, sitting in the pavilion, drinking tea and playing for fun......
"Lord, it's snowing. Let's go back! ”
The young man is a childish slave, because the concubines did not meet the day before yesterday, and today they are piled up in the manna hall. He was upset, so he made an excuse and sneaked here to play two games of chess to relieve his boredom.
"Go back? When they first came out, those people had just arrived. If you go back at this moment, won't you be caught? Not going back. Moreover, appreciating plum blossoms in the snow has a special meaning. ”
Speaking of which, the young slave who wanted to pretend to be an adult picked up the teacup decently, just waiting to be a gentleman who used snow as a dish and plum as a drink, but when he raised his eyes to find his appetizer, a shadow of a shadow crashed into his eyes.
In a snow-white and red, a little golden red plum in the center of the eyebrows reflected Mei Niang's smiling face, and for a while, the young slave was stunned.
"Huh? Isn't this the martial artist? The one who saved the prince? ”
When Ryan saw this, he exclaimed.
The young slave was shocked when she heard this, and when she was about to stop her, she saw that Mei Niang was already startled by Ryan's voice, and she actually looked over to her side.
I had to sit awkwardly on the spot, watching Mei Niang run up with a plum blossom that had just been broken off in surprise and joy, and said with a smile: "Childish slave?!" Why are you in the palace again?! ”
"Bold! This is His Royal Highness the King of Jin today! How can you be so rude! De'an was furious when he heard this, but he forgot that the woman in front of him was the life-saving benefactor of the young slave, so he stepped forward and waved the dust and drank.
"King ...... Jin" Mei Niang was shocked when she heard this, and remembered the events of the past few days, and her heart was suddenly in her heart, and she hurriedly threw away the plum blossoms and wanted to salute. But he was stopped by the young slave and said: "My sister saved my life, and I am a talented person of my father, so naturally I don't have to be polite." De'an, what are you shouting about? Why don't you pick up the flowers with your sister and sit on a circle chair?! ”
After saying a few words, De'an suddenly woke up, knowing that he was rude, and he wanted to make amends at the moment, but was stopped by Mei Niang. I was grateful, so I hurriedly brought a circle chair and sat down with Mei Niang.
Mei Niang looked at the young slave and smiled, but when she wanted to speak, she didn't know what to call it. Seeing her worries, the young slave smiled and said, "Sister Wu, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid that there would be no more young slaves in this world." Therefore, this milk name is the presence of your father, and you also called it. ”
When Mei Niang heard this, she saw that he was kind and gentle, and she was very happy in her heart, and she didn't like to be rigid by nature, so she smiled slightly and said: "Since the young slave doesn't treat my sister as an outsider, then Sister Wu doesn't treat the young slave as an outsider." Child, those things a few days ago were actually sent by you, right? Sister Wu, thank you. ”
Seeing that she was not separated from herself, the young slave was even more happy, and said with a smile: "Sister Wu is too polite. If it weren't for the childish slave, Sister Wu wouldn't be so uncomfortable. By the way, I heard that Sister Wu also went to look for a child slave later? ”
"I just want to take my clothes and change them with you. But at that moment, it looked like someone had taken you away. That's it. ”
"How do you know that the slave has been taken away?" Childish slave Daqi: "You see? ”
"Not really. But there are two rows of footprints on the road you walk, but they go in the direction of the inner sanctum. And these two rows of footprints, one of which is the size of yours and has water trails, I guess it's you. ”
When the young slave heard this, she couldn't help but take a deep look at Mei Niang and secretly sighed at her intelligence.
After talking for a while, the topic gradually turned to this chess skill. Smelling that Mei Niang can also play chess, the young slave is happy, and the two have to compete in chess.
Dean Ryan rarely saw the little master so happy, and his heart was happy. Seeing that the snow is gradually increasing, he arranged for the surrounding servants to take the charcoal fire and the wind and snow curtain (a thin curtain made of cotton for the tire, and the Tang Palace is mostly a high hall, so this kind of wind and snow curtain is a sharp weapon for winter wind and snow...... ), privately Ming Concubine Niangniang's go to the Ganlu Palace......
Not long after, this small pavilion will enclose several wind and snow curtains, leaving only one covered with dense thick veil, and the red plum of the snow scene outside the pavilion can be faintly seen. In several corners of the pavilion, charcoal braziers were placed.
The warm tea warms people, and the young slave and Mei Niang have more fun. For a time, each has a win or a loser.
The young slave has loved chess since he was a child, and since he was a child, he has been taught chess by the eldest grandson queen, and he has been accustomed to all the national players, and he has been defeated.
The essence of its chess strength is only afraid that there are few opponents in the entire Tang Dynasty. It's just that he doesn't want to hurt the heart of the fourth brother who is famous for his chess kings, so he always leaves some spare strength when he plays chess with others.
Now as soon as Mei Niang made a move, he faintly felt that he seemed to be equal to his chess strength, and he was very happy at the moment and let go of the fight.
Sure enough, at the end of the first game, the young slave tried his best, but he only won the third son. The heart was even more happy, so he pestered Mei Niang to continue.
Mei Niang was as surprised as a childish slave. The reason is only that she is also like a childish slave, although she has been influenced by her father since she was a child and loves chess, and she has received guidance from many famous teachers, but the people in the family and around her, except for her father and several teachers, are all vassal and elegant people who don't know anything about it, and they can't refute people's face. Therefore, it is easy not to play chess with others. But whenever there is a last resort, half of the strength will be hidden to welcome it. Even so, it was a repeated victory. provoked her to always sigh in her heart, the luck of chess against her opponent, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find in this life.
Unexpectedly......
In this deep palace, you have to meet an opponent. How not to like it?
The more they fought, the more they fought, the more they fought, and they forgot the time. Seeing this, although it was time for lunch, he couldn't bear to call the little master, so he had to look at each other, not knowing what to do.
When he was worried, suddenly the wind and snow curtain was lifted, and a middle-aged man dressed in an ink fox fur and revealing his inner dragon robe walked in magnificently, and said with a smile: "Childish slave! You're still playing here! Don't eat anymore? ”
When the curtain was lifted in the snow, the young slave felt a cool breeze blowing in, and he knew that there were people, but he only thought that it was a little waiter who came to deliver something, and the fight was on the rise, so he refused to look up.
Now when he heard Taizong's voice, he got up in shock and saluted: "Father! Then I remembered the chess game on the chessboard, and my heart tightened.
Mei Niang was also shocked when she heard that Taizong was coming, but she saw that the childish slave's face was tight, as if she wanted to look at the chessboard, and knew that he didn't want to be known that she was superb in chess, so she took the opportunity to salute, waved her long sleeves, and swept the chess pieces all over the table, and it was difficult to see the shocking situation of Fang Cai.
Seeing this, the young slave knew that she was thinking about herself, and couldn't help but look at her gratefully from under her arm. saw Mei Niang smiling mischievously at herself, blinking, and looking pretty. In addition, the red plum in the center of the eyebrows is unbelievably beautiful.
My heart palpitated, and I remembered that the people of the former court took pleasure in the red plum, and I expected Mei Niang to be like this, but I was afraid that she also had the same thoughts. For some reason, I suddenly became unhappy.
Taizong didn't know that for a moment, there were so many thoughts and actions between the slave and Mei Niang, so he just smiled and hugged the slave in his arms, and calmed Mei Niang's courtesy.
When Mei Niang got up, Taizong also looked at her beautiful face and was stunned, and said with a smile: "I have heard the name of the Wu family's daughter, and it is not a false rumor when I see it today." ”
Mei Niang is the first time to see Taizong, usually I often hear my father mention Taizong, saying that it is a hero of Mingjun who is not often in the world, and is praised by this great hero like this, her heart is inevitably shy, her face is slightly red, and she lowered her head. It is even more beautiful.
Although Taizong loves his wife, but Mei Niang looks like this, how many men in the world are not amazed?
Moreover, Mei Niang was fourteen years old at the time, and she was the same age as Princess Chengyang, so she only smiled and groaned, looking at Mei Niang like a little daughter, but she had no other thoughts.
The young slave grew up with Taizong since he was a child, how could he not know his father's thoughts, seeing that Sister Wu, who had the grace of saving her life and the friendship of chess friends, seemed to be moved by her father, and she was very anxious. I don't know what to do. I had to stop my father by the neck and shout that he was hungry and wanted to eat.
When Taizong saw that his beloved son was hungry, he was not without pity, and he was upset, so he summoned Mei Niang to go to the Ganlu Hall for dinner.
When Mei Niang heard this, she knew that she was going to bed tonight, but she was afraid that it was coming. was happy, sad and contradictory for a while, so he had to slowly bless himself, said a word of obedience, and followed.
The young slave originally wanted to let her father leave Mei Niang, but who knew that it backfired, but let her go with the Ganlu Palace. In addition, he secretly looked at Mei Niang's expression, and there seemed to be a contradiction, so he knew that he was thinking about Mei Niang's wrong thoughts, secretly hating, and his little brain was just thinking about how to be good.
