Chapter 458: Zize Garden
Princess Taiping chewed Yang Fan's words repeatedly, and gradually understood something, she raised her head, looked at Yang Fan, and asked, "Do you think we still have a chance?" ”
Yang Fan said: "You are concerned about chaos, haven't you noticed that although the emperor has chosen the martial family, he has not yet decided who it is." There are now two people in the martial family, and now one is in charge of the second sacrifice and the other is responsible for the final sacrifice, which shows that the position of the prince cannot be settled for a while. Accidents often happen when things are decided, let alone those that have not yet been decided. ”
Princess Taiping said: "However, no matter which of them the mother emperor chooses, the result will be the same for us." ”
Yang Fan said: "But everything is done, half by hard work, half by providence, before it happens, any accident can happen." Can you imagine a beggar who was poorly clothed and hungry ten years ago, but today he actually lives in a temple and becomes a criminal department? ”
Princess Taiping smiled, her heavy mood relaxed a little, and quipped: "You are just a Langzhong now, but you can't talk about living in a temple." ”
She thought for a while, and said: "What you said makes sense, what has not been realized in a day may not be accidental, if I give up now, then it will really come true." ”
Yang Fan said happily: "It's good if you understand." I'll go back. As for what you said you want to clear up for me......"
Yang Fan smiled bitterly and said, "I have good intentions, but forget about this kind of thing." For what people are happy to see and want to see, even if the person himself denies it, it is useless��1 Some things will become whiter and whiter, and some things will be darker and darker...... Go with the flow! ”
"Oh......"
Princess Taiping agreed, somehow there was a feeling of relief in her heart, seeing Yang Fan lift the curtain, Princess Taiping had a whim, and asked again: "Why can you never admit defeat?" If you persist until Zuihou and it is still a failure, what should you do? ”
Yang Fan stopped, thought for a while, and said, "That...... I'll just pat my ass and leave. The world is so big, where can't you go? Do I have to hang myself from this crooked-necked tree? ”
Princess Taiping was dumbfounded.
Yang Fan's horse was tied to the back of Princess Taiping's car, and as soon as he saw Yang Fan come out, Xu Houde stopped the car. Yang Fan went around to the back of the car, untied the reins and turned over on the horse, and was just about to ride the horse away, only to take two steps, and suddenly a pleasant voice came from behind him: "Tomorrow, I will ask her to visit Jingu Garden together!" ”
Yang Fan Huo Ran turned around. The curtain was gently closed, and a cardamom-coated wattle quietly retracted into the window. There was only a touch of surprise in Yang Fan's eyes.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
There was no court meeting the next day, and Guan Wan'er was picked up from the palace by a light car early in the morning.
Wu Zetian knew where Shangguan Wan'er went, and Wan'er had reported to her in advance, saying that Princess Taiping had invited her to visit Jingu Garden with her today.
Wu Zetian thought that after the ceremony, his daughter's mood would be low for a while, but he didn't expect that she would still be interested in inviting Shangguan Wan'er to travel. It seems that since her daughter married into the Wu family and became a Wu family wife, her mentality has changed, and she is no longer so resistant to the Wu family's inheritance. on this situation. Wu Zetian was naturally happy to see it, so he readily agreed.
The light car arrived at the Taiping Princess's Mansion, the corner gate opened, and the car drove directly into the back garden of the Princess's Mansion. There were only four guards ♂ on the left and right of the car, and they really went out of the city to play.
Princess Taiping's annex built in Jingu Garden is called "Zize Garden", and Princess Taiping once complained to Wu Zetian that her annex in Jingu Garden was smaller than Princess Qianjin's garden, and it was not as gorgeous as Princess Qianjin's garden. That's why she opened more than a dozen stores in Nanshi and handed them over to Yang Fan to help her take care of, in order to earn more expenses.
Princess Taiping said these words to help Yang Fan get rid of the crime, but it was not out of nowhere, her garden was indeed smaller than Princess Qianjin's garden, Princess Qianjin's garden covers an area of twenty acres, and her garden covers a maximum of eighteen acres.
Her garden is indeed not as magnificent as the princess's garden, because only a few palace pavilions have been built in her garden, which retains the original ecology of this place as much as possible, so it is full of wild interest.
As for the geographical location, Princess Taiping is even more sloppy, and her annex occupies the most beautiful part of the Golden Valley Garden. Compared with the location of the princess's annex, the same acre of land is at least five times more expensive.
The name Jinguyuan is taken from Shi Chong, a wealthy man in the Western Jin Dynasty, who built a more exquisite and elegant manor than the royal garden here, and the name was Jinguyuan.
The "Zize Garden" of Princess Taiping is said to be the location of the "Jingu Garden" built by Shi Chong in the past, and it is still a crop field outside the Jingu Garden during the Shichong period of the Western Jin Dynasty.
Shangguan Wan'er was in the palace, and it was not easy to meet Yang Fan, but the biggest obstacle to meeting Yang Fan came from the poisonous oath she had made before.
Yang Fan was actually very curious about what reason Princess Taiping had made, but he didn't ask Wan'er, it was a very subtle feeling, when he saw Wan'er, from Wan'er's slightly strange expression when she saw her, he could feel that he couldn't ask this reason.
Princess Taiping didn't come with them, she asked Wan'er to visit Jingu Garden with her to help Yang Fan create an opportunity, of course she wouldn't come along. Even if Yang Fan and Shangguan Wan'er didn't care that she was here, wouldn't she be uncomfortable when she saw Yang Fan and Wan'er?
Therefore, today's "Zize Yuan" has become the shijie of Yang Fan and Shangguan Wan'er.
There are not too many buildings in "Zize Garden", but some ingenious designs have been made for the rivers that flow through the park, with the height of the terrain, the platform is built and the pond is chiseled, the clear stream lingers, the water is murmuring, the birds are singing and the fish are jumping, the elegance is abnormal, so the scenery full of wild interest is more durable than those artificial landscapes.
Occasionally, you will see a few dilapidated stone walls in the depths of the vegetation, which are heavily concealed by vines and trees. If you look closer, you can see that there are delicate and beautiful patterns on the stone, so that the stone that has been passed by the vicissitudes of time maintains a sense of dignity ≮ Yes, the ruins and broken walls also have a simple beauty.
Wan'er had been here before, and she was well-read and memorized, and knew many stories that had been annihilated by the years in the pile of old papers, Wan'er snuggled in Yang Fan's arms, pointed to the stone wall in the depths of the grass and trees, and said leisurely: "This used to be Shi Chong's garden, at that time, there were pavilions here, high and low, and gorgeous.
It is said that Shi Chong used pearls, agate, rhino horns, ivory, etc. to decorate this place with gold and splendor, and even the convenient places were placed with patterned tent cushions, agarwood burning, and beautiful maids waiting for him, so that an official who came to the door thought that he had strayed into Shi Chong's inner room.
Do you see that wall, it is the remains of Shichong's Golden Valley Garden. I sometimes wonder if this place was the Green Pearl Building where the amorous Green Pearl Girl lived, and maybe the Green Pearl Girl jumped down from here and died in love. ”
Yang Fan sighed lightly: "Such an arrogant generation, where is he now, what is left is just this ruin." ”
He hugged Wan'er's slender waist, looked in the direction of Pi Mountain, and said, "Just like Liu Xiu, the Emperor of Han Guangwu buried on the river beach at the foot of Pi Mountain." What is left of this generation of emperors? ”
Shangguan Wan'er looked back and smiled: "People tell you that Luzhu is affectionate, why does Lang Jun feel this way?" ”
Yang Fan said: "You are a woman, of course you think of the affectionate nature of the green beads." I am a man, but what I think about is Shi Chong's glorious life, especially when I think of the dispute between Li Wu and Wu in this dynasty, I feel even more. ”
Shangguan Wan'er shook her head and said, "Lang Jun is really an outlier. The emperor's family affairs do not talk about it, let's just say that this dynasty is Chinese martial arts, one by one, gray hair, huge age, but also hard to climb up, knowing that the higher the place, the greater the risk, but unwilling to give up. Lang Jun was already ranked in the fifth rank at a young age, and he had a bright future, why did he become depressed? ”
Yang Fan smiled: "Emotion is emotion, I'm doing things." I just think that when a person is young, either for fame and fortune, or for ambition, he will certainly work hard, but when he is old, for the sake of his posthumous fame and grandchildren, he is afraid that he will be more enthusiastic about fame and fortune than when he was young. ”
Yang Fan kissed Wan'er lightly on the cheek and said softly: "We are still young, it is the time to have fun in time, and when we have children and daughters, it is not too late to work hard for the children!" ”
When Shangguan Wan'er heard this, her expression darkened, and when Yang Fan saw it, she couldn't help but regret her words.
Wan'er is now used by the female emperor and is not free. Her father and mother were persecuted because they had fought against the empress, although she was just a weak woman, but now her father and mother were a towering tree sheltered from the wind and rain on the heads of many relatives, and she couldn't leave behind these many concerns, so that the two of them even had a tryst like a cowherd and a weaver girl, and they asked Princess Taiping to build a magpie bridge for them.
For a woman, the most important thing in this life is to have a beloved man, and then give birth to children for this beloved man. The absence of one of the two is an irreparable regret for her life, and it is so difficult to even have a tryst now, let alone have children, doesn't it make her sad to talk about this?
Yang Fan hurriedly said: "Look, you and I are very happy to meet, why bother here to chase the past and think about the present, and climb for the ancients?" Let's talk about the most famous legend in this Golden Valley Garden, 'Green Bead Falling Tower'. The loyalty of green beads and the affection of Shi Chong have been praised through the ages, but I always feel that it is not the same thing. ”
