Chapter 131: Floral Fragrance
Li Da returned to the palace and asked a passing servant: "Is the eldest brother back?" ”
The little guy smiled with a smile on his face and replied: "Back to the second son, the prince has just come back, and he went to say goodbye to the prince." ”
Li Da nodded, with a happy face: "It's just right, I'll go see the uncle too." ”
His steps were brisk, and after a while he reached the main courtyard, he heard bursts of laughter from inside.
Li Da was out of his mind for a while, and he happened to be seen by the maid, and called out loudly: "The second son is here!" ”
Li Wen immediately came out of the house, beckoned him over, and said with a smile: "The second brother came just in time, we are talking about you!" ”
Li Da was puzzled: "What are you talking about me?" Don't laugh at me again for buying bloodstone to make people cheat, right? ”
Li Wen laughed: "How long ago it was, we all forgot, but you are worried about it yourself." Rest assured, it's a good thing! ”
When the brothers enter the house, Li Da discovers that his mother is also there.
The second master of the Dongjiang Royal Mansion died early, and the second lady still has to rely on her brother and sister-in-law, and the relationship between the concubines has always been close.
Seeing her son, she smiled and said, "You came by coincidence, don't you know that you are talking about you?" ”
This time, Li Da was really at a loss and asked, "Mother, what did you tell your aunt about me?" You haven't caused any trouble lately, have you? ”
"It's all said to be a good thing, what are you afraid of?" Li Wen said, handing him a scroll, "The second aunt said, you are not too young, take advantage of the autumn banquet to decide the marriage!" ”
The two brothers are less than a year old, and they should have been engaged a long time ago, but the king of Dongjiang has not decided on Li Wen's family affairs considering the situation, and Li Da, as a younger brother, is naturally not good to cross the eldest brother, so he dragged it down.
Li Da took the scroll and stammered a little when he spoke: "I...... Big brother hasn't decided yet, why is it my turn? ”
Princess Dongjiang said with a smile: "You two brothers will do it together, won't it be delayed?" Quick, look at these portraits, do you have a favorite? ”
Li Da picked up a few ladies under their talk and laughter, and sent them in to show the king of Dongjiang, and probably set the preliminary candidates.
After the event, Li Da pulled his brother to the courtyard to talk.
"Big brother, the portraits of Miss Tong Er and Miss Wei Si are also listed, could it be that you really have already picked Miss Xu as they said?"
Li Wen smiled and didn't give him a positive answer, but said: "The autumn banquet hasn't been held yet, and then I'll see it with my own eyes before I can decide on the candidate." When the time comes, who do you like, just say it, don't think that you can only pick after the big brother picks. ”
Li Da's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "That's not the case, not only my status, but also my reputation and fame, I am far inferior to my eldest brother." Those young ladies are all going for the eldest brother, and if I insert it first, I will inevitably disappoint them. So ꓹ It's better to wait for the eldest brother to choose the princess, and then I'll look at it more appropriately. ”
Li Wending looked at him for a long time, which made him a little nervous and asked carefully: "Big brother ꓹ Where did I say something wrong?" ”
Li Wen shook his head with a smile and said, "No, I just think that you are too sensible, second brother, and you can't help but wronged yourself." Our brothers grew up together, and we have never separated from each other, and although I am the son of the world, I have never asked you to back down everywhere. What you like, what you want, you can say it bluntly ꓹ What the big brother can give you, it will definitely be given to you. ”
At this moment, Li Da almost thought that he had something to say, but when he looked at it, Li Wen still looked sincere, and it was no different from the past.
Are you thinking too much about yourself? Li Da flashed this thought and replied with a smile: "I know that my eldest brother is good to me, and I must choose it well when the time comes." ”
After that, he squeezed his eyes, leaned over and whispered, "Big brother, I've heard about it outside, you have to tell me the truth, do you really like Miss Xu?" Xu's Shuangshu, is it really that beautiful? ”
Li Wen flicked his head with a smile and said, "What have you heard?" Don't be cranky, just say it when the time comes. Miss Xu came from afar, if we didn't entertain them well and made them feel wronged, that Xu Tingshi was not easy to mess with. ”
Li Da pestered him: "Don't worry, big brother, I won't say it!" Let's talk about it privately, I am curious about the name of Xu's Shuangshu. ”
Li Wen had no choice but to say: "It's very beautiful, what kind of appearance do we have, we talk about other people's boudoirs in private, it's really offensive." The autumn banquet is only a few days away, and you will be able to see it with your own eyes when the time comes, so there is no need to worry. ”
Li Da nodded yes, and then grinned: "A person with a pure heart and few desires like the eldest brother says that it is beautiful, which can be seen that it is the truth." Brother is here to wish you all the best wishes, a hundred years of good together! ”
After that, he turned around and ran away, looking afraid of being beaten: "I went back with my mother, and my eldest brother doesn't need to send it." ”
Li Wen pointed at him, but with a smile on his face: "You kid, you are still talking nonsense!" ”
Watching Li Da's figure disappear, the smile on his face slowly put away.
"Shizi." The chief guard came over and asked for instructions.
Li Wen nodded: "Don't keep an eye on it, so as not to startle the snake." ”
"Yes."
……
Xu Yin woke up from sleep, and birds chirped outside the window.
She blinked, smelling the faintly familiar scent of osmanthus flowers, and it took her a while to come to her senses.
Dongjiang, by the way, she is in Dongjiang now.
Memories of the past flooded in, and she stared at the top of the tent for a long time.
For both her sister and her, Dongjiang is the saddest place. My sister was forced to commit herself, and she was framed again and again. In order to protect herself, she disfigured her appearance with her own hands. The innocence and innocence that was once under the protection of his father were shattered here and ceased to exist.
The Dongjiang Palace, the biggest nightmare of their sisters, every moment here, it is like being trapped in the hell of Shura, full of suffering.
As long as she thinks of those people and things, she can't wait to ......
"Second son Yan, what are you doing?" The sound of the summer solstice shattered her memories.
Yan Ling's brisk voice came from outside: "Pick osmanthus!" Ask the cook to make osmanthus cake to eat. ”
Xia Zhi was speechless for a moment, and said: "Second son Yan, we are here as guests, how can there be any reason to pick the osmanthus flowers of the master's family?" If you want to eat osmanthus cake, just tell Yicheng, is it possible that they can't get osmanthus cake? ”
Yan Ji helped the master explain: "Summer Solstice girl, we have asked Yicheng, these osmanthus flowers should fall in a few days, we are willing to pick them, and we save them effort." Besides, my son-in-law is idle and bored, so he should practice. ”
Xu Yin was full of depression and was stirred by them, and all of them dispersed, so she simply got up and dressed, pulled her hair in a bun, and pushed open the window.
The fragrance of osmanthus came to her nose, and she raised her head to see the young man in the skylight.
He turned his head when he heard the sound, smiled brightly at her, threw over a cinnamon branch, and his voice was flying: "Do you smell it, is it fragrant?" ”
Xu Yin picked up the cinnamon branch, the refreshing aroma filled his nose, and he couldn't help but say, "Fragrant." ”
Then he reacted and said, "Second Master Yan, don't you become a fruit that grows on a tree, why do you always see you climbing trees?" ”
