No matter what kind of calculation Xiao Xu's guide had in his heart, he introduced the young masters of the Xie family to the library of Youxian Mountain Pavilion, which was still very popular.

The three young masters of the Xie family, except for Xie Huizhi, couldn't wait to live directly in the Youxian Mountain Pavilion.

His Royal Highness King Yan, who built the garden, is a rare scribe among the Yan kings in the past dynasties, although he can spend too much money, but he really likes poetry and songs, wind and snow. In addition to spending money on banquets to entertain literati, build gardens, and subsidize scholars, he also likes to collect all kinds of books, both new and old. What was collected in the Youxian Mountain Pavilion was only part of his collection of books, and the rest were still in the Yanwang Mansion, and later the old lady moved in and added some idle books and Buddhist scriptures. But even so, the collection is impressive.

Xie Xianzhi, Xie Jinzhi and Xie Hanzhi knew that their family could not always have the opportunity to study in the garden, so they were unwilling to miss this good opportunity, and only persuaded their mother to take their third brother and sisters to continue to visit the garden with Xiao Xu, while they stayed in the mountain pavilion to read as many books as possible, and read as many as they could. Wen had no choice but to entrust the attendants stationed in the mountain pavilion to take care of the three bookworms, and he took the other children to go first.

It's just that after seeing a few brothers who have always been stable and cheating, Xie Mulin and them will lose their interest in traveling in the mountains and rivers next, and they can't help but snicker when they chat in private. The group hurriedly toured the remaining few prominent scenery, and when they saw that the sun was turning west, they all returned to their temporary residences.

Before the sun went down, the three brothers of the Xie family were escorted back by Xiao Xu with a smile.

Of course, they couldn't stay in the Youxianshan Pavilion until the night. That hillside has the densest residential buildings in the park, which is the residence of the Yan Wang family, the owner of Zizhu Courtyard, and now lives the princess and the county lord, as well as many female dependents, how can it be possible for the foreign man to stay after dark?

However, the dinner was hosted by Princess Yan, and the Xie family was invited to Ba Yixuan for a small banquet.

Bayixuan is not far from Chengbi Mountain House, take the Meiqiao to Zhongshan Island, and you will soon be able to walk to Bayixuan. It is a relatively spacious small pavilion, built on a low gentle slope, facing the spacious lake, with a wide view, ventilation on three sides, and it must be cool in the summer.

Of course, since Princess Yan wants to be the east, it is impossible for the guests to blow the wind and get cold in the Xuan, so the palace attendants are very careful to cover the Xuanzhong with a tall four-fold screen to block the cold breeze at night. The Xie family sat in the Xuan and sat at several tables, only feeling that the host was warm and thoughtful, the dishes were fresh and exquisite, and the overall atmosphere was very good, and they would never feel that this place was not suitable for banqueting guests on a spring evening.

Princess Yan seems to be in a very good mood today, she is very kind to the guest Wen, and asks about the latter's perception of today's visit to the garden. The Wen family was already having a lot of fun, so at this time, he naturally praised the beauty of Zizhuyuan. She thanked Princess Yan again and again for her invitation and said many words of gratitude. Princess Yan in turn thought that she had thanked her too much, but she seemed to be angry, and then enthusiastically introduced her to several fresh delicacies produced in the garden, such as spring bamboo shoots or something.

The characteristic of Zizhuyuan is a variety of bamboo, not counting the fish and shrimp produced in several lakes in the garden, bamboo shoots are definitely the first specialty of the garden!

Xie Mulin and the two sisters sat at one table with Zhu Pei, the lord of Yongping, and the Xie brothers and Xiao Rui sat at another table. The two sides were not far away, and they could almost be seen when they looked up, but unfortunately they couldn't speak alone. Xie Mulin secretly looked at Xiao Rui and found that he did not show any tiredness, so he speculated that his afternoon errand was not tired. In a distraction, Xiao Rui looked up and smiled brightly at her, she suddenly felt that the little muscle soreness caused by visiting the garden in the afternoon was gone......

Zhu Pei had already dealt with the two eldest girls of the Xie family, and Xie Mulin was her future sister-in-law, and after taking the initiative to talk, the estrangement between the two parties due to not seeing each other for a long time quickly disappeared. Even Xie Yingfen, the little sister of the Xie family who does not often appear in front of the county lord, has to say a few words from the county lord, and her attitude is very kind, and she does not look down on her at all. Xie Yingfen pretended to be calm on her face, but she was actually very happy in her heart, and even tasted a few more bites of the dishes she didn't like to eat.

Xie Yinghui whispered to Zhu Pei to ask when General Xiao Yuan would be able to return to Beiping - in fact, it was to test the return date of her fiancé Huang Yan, she suspected that General Xiao Yuan would also return with the eldest princess of Yongning and her party, otherwise it would be March, and there should have been a letter a long time ago.

Zhu Pei is still a little shy when she talks about her fiancé. However, she has always been a down-and-out and generous character, and she is not twisted: "He actually wanted to come back a long time ago, but the Queen Mother wanted to keep him for a few more days...... The Queen Mother likes him a lot, and His Royal Highness also said that it is good to have such a brother-in-law. My father and princess also guessed that he might follow the eldest princess's family back to Beiping, right? That would have to wait until April, most likely in mid-April. Fortunately, there is nothing major in the frontier, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't go back, otherwise this procrastination will really delay the business a bit! ”

When Xie Yinghui heard this, she knew it in her heart. When General Xiao Yuan returns to Beiping, it actually has nothing to do with her, but when Huang Yan returns to Beiping, if there are several famous generals in the army accompanying him, it will naturally be safer and safer......

Xie Mulin guessed the meaning of his eldest sister's words, pursed his lips and held back a smile, and said to Zhu Pei: "The Queen Mother and the Fourth Highness must have also thought that it was the fiancé of the county lord, and he would be a husband and wife with the county lord for life in the future, of course, he had to be carefully inspected in order to rest assured that the county lord would be allowed to go out, so he would keep more people for a while, and it would be good to look good!" ”

Zhu Pei's face was slightly red, but she still generously accepted it: "That's right, the Queen Mother is only my granddaughter, if you don't see people clearly, how can you be willing to marry me to Yuan Xie?!" ”

The girls at the table laughed.

On the chairman, Princess Yan chatted with the Wen family and also talked about her daughter's marriage: "It is a national funeral, and the wedding date that was originally scheduled is afraid that it will not be timely, the prince and I have already discussed with the Yuan family, and we want to postpone the day for some time." Although the queen is Yongping's uncle, she is already a cousin in terms of etiquette, and she only needs to take five months of small work. Count the days, as long as the wedding is in June or later, there's nothing to shy away from. It's Chonglin, after all, it's the elder brother, and he should have done the marriage before his sister, but there is a marriage between the eldest son and the eldest girl in the house, so it's not good to arrange the wedding between Chonglin and the second girl first, I'm afraid that the time will be too rushed. ”

Wen said politely: "Our lord doesn't think it's anything, everything depends on the arrangement of the palace." When the Huang family's aunt returns to Beiping, our family will definitely marry Sister Hui first. As for Xianzhi, I'm afraid it depends on the meaning of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess and the concubine. ”

Princess Yan knew in her heart that she was afraid that she would have to ask the Queen Mother what she thought about this marriage. But whether the Queen Mother will go north or not, the matter has not yet been officially decided, so she is not good to say more to her in-laws first, so she said: "I will go to Princess Nobunaga's Mansion again to see what kind of regulations my sister has." I'll let you know if there's any new news. ”
