Chapter 13 Where to Float Zero Guest 3

Ji Linghuang still remembers that on an autumn afternoon, he and Situ Xi climbed to the top of Shuxiao Pavilion, overlooking the entire Xinwang Mansion by the railing. The east side of the palace stretches, the corridor waist is back, and the green glazed tiles on the top of the Huacan hall are like spring waves. To the west, there is a garden with lush trees and mountains and waters. On that day, the sky was extremely high and clear, and the sunlight flowed down on the body, warm as the water of a hot spring. When the breeze rises, there is a rush of pride in my chest that I want to express. In his ears, he heard Situ Xi chanting leisurely: "The image of things is far away, and Zhou Hui is looking forward to it." With smoke thousand well trees, and chime on the first floor of the wind. The moonlight is cold, and the sound of waves is in the sky at night. Ascend to infinite fun, hate not to be with you. ”

Ji Linghuang asked: "Lang Lang Qiankun, the weather is very good, why did His Highness make such sentimental words?" ”

"You don't know. This is a poem by the Tang Dynasty poet Zilan reminiscing about her old friend. Today, I climbed high and looked far away, and I couldn't help but think of Zeng and Qinglan...... Oh, it's my imperial brother-in-law, one night in this attic talking about the past and the present, so happy. Now the scenery is still there, but Qinglan has ......," Situ Xi said with a long sigh.

The scene of hanging the old man in Shu Xiao Pavilion was like yesterday, but Ji Linghuang didn't expect that within a year, Situ Xi listened to Jiang Jiu'er's words, painted the railings and stairs of Shu Xiao Pavilion into black paint, and covered all the luminous objects in the pavilion with a black cloth. At night, a few dim and dim lamps and candles were lit in the pavilion. Situ Xi and the three of them went up to the pavilion with wine, and summoned four young and beautiful maids to watch the wind and the moon in the pavilion, drink and have fun. No one can see anyone's face clearly in the dark, and jokes are even more unscrupulous. The maids also knew a lot about amorous feelings, so they laughed and had sex with them when the black light was blinding. Some of them stretched their singing voices even more, and made harmony with Zi'an and Tong Qiman. The delicate laughter and singing like wind chimes are constantly colliding, endless like wisps, half of them soaring into the night, and half of them are rippling in the palace of King Xin, hitting every corner, and the listeners are all imaginative......

*****

Ji Linghuang finished telling the story of the Xinwang Mansion, and Yingxian's heart also pinched, and he secretly thought: These two princes have obviously been bewitched by a few villains and are going astray. This person is so playful, no wonder the emperor doesn't like him very much. Seeing that Ji Linghuang had a faint worry between his eyebrows, he couldn't help but say, "Ji Gongzi doesn't have to worry too much. After you go back, you will persuade Your Highness. I'll tell the princess about it, too. Maybe...... She's an older sister, and what she says can still work. ”

Ji Linghuang stared at Yingxian, he wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a moment, he finally held back, said "There is labor", turned around and left. Ying Xian watched his back disappear into the distance, and his heart was empty, and he felt bored. Standing in the wind for a long time, he suddenly became clever, and hurriedly returned to the house to find Situ Su, and brought Ji Linghuang's words one by one. After hearing this, Situ Su frowned slightly, and said, "If you are so nonsense, sooner or later your father will know about it." It's time to see how he cleans up. It seems that I have to see who these three people really are. ”

Situ Su had made up his mind, so he sent Xiao Yinzi and Xiao Xuanzi to the palace to invite Situ Xi, Jiang Jiu'er and others to the princess's mansion as guests. On the eve of the Dragon Boat Festival, the four of them came together, and Yingxian saw a few people's dignity.

Jiang Jiu'er in front of him, his face is like a crown of jade, and his lips are like grease. There was a sly light in the narrow eyes, which made people uncomfortable when they touched it slightly. When he saw Situ Su, he respectfully bowed to the shrine, and said, "Jiang Jiu'er see Princess Wenhei." I have heard the name of Her Royal Highness the princess for a long time, and what I saw today was not a princess in the world, but it was like meeting with the fairy Yaochi. Situ Su nodded slightly and motioned for Jiang Jiu'er to flatten down. Jiang Jiu'er stood up, and when her eyes swept over the rest of the princess's mansion, her face was full of arrogance. Zi'an on the side is in his twenties, and his appearance is even more delicate. There is a pair of peach blossom eyes embedded in the pointed face, and his gaze is wandering, and his attitude is not like that of a man. The long hair full of luster is tied up with only a snow-white ribbon, which is scattered and scattered, and it has the meaning of painting. And that Tong Qi is about thirty-four or five years old, lean, slightly hunchbacked, and has a handful of goatee on his chin, which is unforgettable. The three of them came this time, all wearing jacquard robes made of brocade, and the belts were all trimmed with bright gold thread, which was extraordinarily gorgeous. Who would have thought that these three people who were in the rivers and lakes would now enjoy this glory and wealth, and they would have such a smug expression on their faces?

After everyone finished giving the ceremony, Xiao Xuanzi introduced it into the dining room. Lifting a curtain of multicolored beads, a small and elegant room came into view. The four walls are pasted with several delicate and vivid pictures of fruits and vegetables. In the west corner is a pot of pomegranate flowers, the bright green leaves of which are adorned with golden-red and sparkling flowers. A banquet and drinking silk painting screen passes along the southeast, and a golden silk nanmu eight immortal table is installed in the center of the house, and benches are placed around each side. Xiao Guizi and Lan Sheng were already waiting in the house. Xiao Guizi saw the guests and hurriedly invited everyone to take a seat, while Lan Sheng stood aside to serve wine. The people sat down, and some of them offered the food one by one. First, appetizers such as wisps of gold incense medicine and carved nectar fried, followed by six main courses. Each dish is served on exquisite and elegant tableware, and various postures are posed.

Xiao Guizi said with a smile on her face: "Everyone, the princess's mansion has always been vegetarian. But the princess considered that everyone was afraid of being difficult to adapt to for a while, so she specially asked Master Liu to prepare a few side dishes. Please see. Yingxian's eyes swept over, and he saw that the first dish was cold yellow flowers, the second was fried mushrooms, the third was fried fish and shrimp, and the fourth dish was not known what kind of meat it was. The fifth plate seemed to be crowded with a bunch of weird bugs. At the end, there is a large pot of noodles, sprinkled with peanuts and sesame seeds, and the aroma is overflowing. Yingxian thought to herself: These should be the meals specially prepared by the second princess. But it looks like the food is very ordinary, and I don't know what to do.

Everyone gathered and feasted. Tong Qi ate with relish, wiped his mouth, and praised: "The master is a good craft!" Dare to ask the princess, what are these dishes? I might be able to try to do it when I go back. ”

As soon as Situ Su gave his eyes, Xiao Guizi understood, and explained: "This first dish is called 'Charming Flowers'. Daylily is clear and moist and hot, and it is just right to eat in summer. The second dish is 'Mushroom Dance', which is fried with fresh mushrooms from the mountains. The third course is 'fish and dragon mixed fried', the fish is a small yellow croaker, and the dragon naturally refers to river shrimp. Eat it hot, and the texture will be crispy. I guess you've also tasted the fourth course, and it's chicken and dog meat, so it's called 'chicken dog ascending to heaven'. As for the fifth course, it is the precious cordyceps sinensis in the palace. Don't look at the current luxuriant appearance, it will turn into a bunch of small insects in winter. As for this noodle, Chef Liu said, it is called "Shiba Ren Zhi Noodles." ”

As soon as the names of these dishes were announced, Yingxian's heart blossomed. Turning his head, Zi'an's face twitched sharply, Tong Qi was still a little confused, but after he came to his senses, he immediately pulled down his face. The two of them were awkwardly clubbed there, pinching their chopsticks, and they didn't pick up the vegetables, and they didn't clip them. Taking a look at Jiang Jiu'er again, although his expression also changed, he immediately returned to normal and said, "It's hard for the princess to be so caring." The lowly people thank you here. After that, he picked up a mushroom and put it in his mouth, shaking his head while chewing: "It tastes great, it tastes great!" ”

When Situ Xi witnessed this scene, he couldn't know Situ Su's intentions. It's so boring. He took a sip of wine and said, "Master Liu's fame is really getting more and more. Wei Yi frowned: "What kind of wine is this?" There is such a strange fragrance. ”

At this time, Lan Sheng came over and said softly: "If you go back to Your Highness, this is the wine I brewed with agarwood." ”

"Agarwood soaking wine? What's the trick? ”

"Agarwood is elegant and is listed as the first of all incense. And it can be used in medicine since ancient times. Agarwood wine can ventilate and invigorate the blood, calm the nerves and calm the mind, and is also very good for the waist and kidneys. ”

Situ Xi looked at Lan Shang's pair of bright apricot eyes and said with a smile: "I see." ”

Yingxian interjected: "I remember that in the book "Baishi Zhaozhonglu", there was a story about Yue Fei dividing agarwood. ”

Situ Xi hurriedly asked: "Let's hear it, what is the story?" “

"It's about Yue Fei one day giving agarwood to his subordinate officials, and each person has a piece. But Huang Zong, who was in charge of the file, got the least. Yue Wang Ye thought that it was unevenly divided, so he re-distributed a package of agarwood to everyone. This Huang Zong still gets the least. Yue Fei felt that it was very unsatisfactory. Huang Zong said: 'I joined the army alone, even if I get agarwood, it is useless. Yue Fei said, "I used to like to burn incense, but I only burned ordinary cypress incense in a clay oven, and later this habit was abandoned." If a husband wants to make meritorious contributions to the country, how can he always think about his personal hobbies! ’”

As soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it in her heart: the meaning of the admonition was too obvious. Why should I bother with all this thought? Mess with the two princes? Peeking at it, Situ Xi didn't care. Haha smiled and said, "It is worthy of Lord Yue." ”

Lan Sheng cleared her throat and continued: "In fact, when it comes to soaking wine, in addition to agarwood, osmanthus, angelica, calamus, hyssop, pepper, long pepper, dogwood, coriander, cardamom and other aromatic plants can be used to make wine, and they also have their own wonderful uses. ”

Jiang Jiu'er suddenly asked: "Do you know that girl, spices can also kill?" ”

Lan Sheng rolled her eyes and nodded: "I've heard of this too." Each plant has its own characteristics, and if it is mixed, it may lead to mental confusion, and in severe cases, it may lead to death. Hearing this, Ying Xian asked with interest, "Are there any examples?" ”

"When I read an ancient book on making incense, I once read a legend. It is said that the wife of a courtier tricked the courtier into her perfume room because she couldn't bear her lover's debauchery. He undressed and laid him down on the floor. She started by dropping a few drops of iris and clove oil on his temples. Calendula essential oil is then applied to the base of the neck, yarrow and gentian oil are sprinkled under the armpits, and various spices are sprinkled all over the lover's body through massage techniques. ”

A wisp of evil laughter crept up Zi'an's snow-white face. His eyes flashed, and he said with a grin: "This man is very blessed." ”

Lan Sheng ignored him and continued her story: "It didn't take long for these essential oils to kick in. Mustard oil is melancholy, and mimosa is fearful. Holly made him jealous, heather made him fussed, and wild roses made him feel indifferent. After all kinds of emotional ups and downs, elm essential oil led him into delusion. Then the woman added a drop of wild apple flower essence to his left and right temples, and the man became disgusted to the extreme, and begged his wife to kill her. So, the woman put a drop of aconite oil on the tongue of the man who was powerless to resist, and the man died all over. ”

After the story was finished, everyone was speechless for a while. Although most of this is just a novelist's words, such a fragrant and terrifying atmosphere can't help but make people's hearts beat. Yingxian couldn't help but think: This orchid dress has always been very familiar with the role of spices and flower essences, and is very knowledgeable in terms of fragrance, and it is really worthy of being the first incense master in the princess's mansion. When I raised my eyes, I saw Lan Yi standing beside the table, wearing a pale yellow raccoon brocade skirt, and a pleasant smile on her sweet face, like the last rose in late summer.
