Fifty-two years old
Jumping all the way, although this alley is long, the pace is also refreshing, and it feels like it doesn't take much time.
Nian Yi'an raised his chin and motioned for me to go out of the alley.
Put away the appearance of a naΓ―ve child playing at the mouth of the alley, and become an adult who passes by carelessly without intention.
There was a T-junction in front of it, and it was only six or seven feet wide from a distance. To put it bluntly, this piece is mostly the mansion of a large family, and for various considerations, the back door or side door always seems quite hidden, which is understandable.
The deep mansion compound is large and sparsely populated, and is located on the same horizontal line as the Imperial Castle, located on the northern axis of the entire Kyoto.
If you want to go to Pingyang downtown, you can go south from the main gate of the palace at two intersections. And now, all the way north.
Turn right at the T-junction, only to feel that the field of vision suddenly opened, this is looking at it from a distance, thinking that it is a long road, but turning around is a big road.
And it's a somewhat familiar road.
There are two or three carriages on the street, and there are few people who go east and return to the west. I hesitated, kept looking, and asked suspiciously: "Third prince, why do I think this road is so similar to Qingfeng Street in front of the palace?" β
Nian Yi'an waved his arm lightly: "Look! β
I looked over and felt that the blood in my whole body began to flow backwards, and I almost didn't scare my mother......
Fifty steps ahead, there were four big characters written on the familiar blue-bottomed gold plaque - Lanqiang Palace.
I looked at Nian Yi'an in horror, and my heart was full of question marks: "What is going on?" Shouldn't the boxy mansion make three turns if it wants to go around the front door? How did you get there in one bend? β
He shrugged: "I didn't even know that this mansion is really regular when you look out from the inside, unless the alley outside the wall is a ring, maybe it can be like this." β
I pondered, "But after walking for so long, we only feel that the alley is quite straight, and although it is rarely inclined, it is not winding?" β
Nian Yi'an tapped the courtyard wall with his fingers to find out how thick it was, "It's really weird." β
"How did you find out?"
"It's your little red horse who leads the way!"
"Huh?? Didn't you cook him? β
He smiled: "It's cooking, brushing the hair, feeding enough concentrate, and then giving medicine to the eyes." In the past few days, I have been very lively and proud. β
I pouted, a hint of unhappiness in my heart.
He relieved: "Okay~ It's not that I deliberately played word games. Winter break told me that you bought this horse because it knows an address and you need it to show the way. That's why I kept it for you first, it's not good to take care of and guide, how can it explain it truthfully! β
My eyes gurgled: "So, it'......"
"So it took me back from the end of the alley to the end of the alley yesterday, and when I came to the bend of the road, I stopped. The point is, it also looked at me with a kind of 'do you understand' look! Haha, I'm also helpless, I can't understand the information that the horse wants to prompt. β
"Humph!"
My tone may be a little coquettish: "No, this guy still has goods hidden in his stomach!" β
Nian Yi'an has been smiling silently: "That's what I said, wait for me to let it confess slowly." No, it's working, but if it weren't for it, how would we know such a narrow alley wonder. β
I continued to pout, and said aggrievedly: "I'm scared of this mansion, I don't know how many mechanisms are still hidden." The master craftsman who was in charge of the construction was so talented, and the death of the first right minister's family can be regarded as proof of people's skills. β
Nian Yi'an laughed and clasped his hands together: "You mean the art of disgust to win!" I don't really believe in this, although Feng Shui has some truth, but it is more like the manifestation of the mind. β
"The tea fruit on the second day of February, this is also called the rich fruit in Beijing, I heard that there are many patterns and flavors today, why don't you find a restaurant to try it together?"
Because I saw that his lips were a little dry, and maybe he was not used to the dryness of Jingzhong, I suddenly thought of this sentence.
He was very quick to get used to my "coldness." β
Floating glimpses, sprinkled with joy, and then in the spring light.
The newly opened Qixian Building is the first to be lively, and even the butterfly pink bee yellow that is often in the deep boudoir has many people who come with their families today to have a happy gathering.
Qixian Tower is built on the Minghu Island in the city, built according to the water, surrounded by water on all sides, and the bridges and belts are staggered. Stepping on the wooden bridge, the feet are rattling, and the young new wood is like a young man's mind. The water is shining, the lake breeze is wrapped in the smell of lake water, the wine flag is charming, and the blowing shirt is not cool.
The road and bridge placket with the viewing bridge, looking over, has been extending to the center of the lake, three bends and nine curves, the best beauty is on the side. Before entering the door, I looked from the bottom to the top, and the viewing position was full of people.
At this time, sitting in a private room is boring, and it is best to find a place with an open view in the upstairs hall, and share the joy of all things with everyone.
Fortunately, the two of us caught up with a wonderful place to see the whole Spring Lake. Farther away, the cross market is still faintly visible, and it seems to take a corner of the "Qingming Riverside Map".
It's lunchtime, first have a few hot dishes with a pot of light wine, the two of us can't see each other, under the chopsticks casually, chewing things in the mouth can also talk and laugh.
Looking at the other tables, young and old, with drooping children, I asked, "When was the third prince born?" It seems that he has also reached the age of marriage. β
He slowly chewed a piece of snow baby, and when he said that this product only began to become popular in Kyoto at the beginning of this year, I couldn't help but smile and sigh, and its ingredient was the Baiyue toad that the old concubine loved to eat. Remove the skin and internal organs, the whole is wrapped in soybean flour and cooked, because it is white in pink, like a baby, hence the name.
It's like making people worse, if it's three months late, I don't know if that tragic incident will have a different ending.
Nian Yi'an finished eating this bite, and his mouth was free: "September of Gengyin's year." However, there is a friend of the bamboo horse, and each other's parents have been matching each other all year round, but I have no such intention for her. β
I tilted my head and counted the time: "You're ten months older than me." Then you always have a woman you like, right? β
He rolled his eyes lightly: "Yes, there is one, she is a princess of other tribes, but her father thinks I am the son of a concubine." When I got this letter, I asked my cousin to do a play, and there was no more to do with it. β
"Huh? It's so simple to disconnect. She didn't look for you again? Don't you all need each other's explanation? β
He smiled, there was no dark cloud on his face, as if he had digested it, and said lightly about other people's things: "I haven't looked for it again, and when the matter has come to this point, there is no need to explain." β
I put my chin on my arm: "If it were me, I would still want to talk to each other, even if it was to say goodbye." β
He bared his front teeth neatly: "There is a response to everything, right?" I know what you mean. In fact, this thing seems to be cut off by me, but in fact, it is she who floats and eventually goes away. β
I nodded, "I see." You choose, to fulfill her choice. β
I looked at him and smiled.
"Then tell me about you, has the little adult ever liked anyone?"
I scoffed: "There have been, but they are all misunderstandings, and after stripping away the overestimation of him because of fantasy, I just feel that I can't mention it, and there is no need to mention it." β
He looked at me and said, "Don't look at the fact that you sometimes shout and kill, but in the end there is little hatred in your heart. Therefore, the appearance made is cute. β
I bit my lower lip: "Really?" So is this impossible to suppress the bad guys, how can it be more ferocious? β
Then we both giggled together and trembled with laughter.
Removed the lunch plates, the wine grapes sent up the dice, and then played for a long time the "color selection grid" and "gourd ask", and when the sun was slightly setting, only let people appreciate its beautiful "look at the fruit" and carved nectar fried line on the table.
At the beginning of the afternoon tea, it began to bloom.
A set of "rich fruits" came down, did not count them in detail, layer upon layer, filled with the whole table, full of freshness, dozens of flavors, nearly 100 colors......
A little bit of each in the dish, only enough to taste one or two bites, and then with the freshly brewed "Shenquan Xiaodough", the entrance is sweet and fragrant, fragrant and full of cheeks, just right.
A satisfying day.
When we returned home, the two of us were on the left and right in the carriage, not close or far. Leaning on the car, we quietly watched the sunset together, the beam stretched all the shadows very long, we squinted our eyes, like children after crazy play, subconsciously wanted to sleep peacefully.
