Chapter 15: Lotus Appreciation in the Gazebo
Chapter 15 Gazebo Lotus Appreciation
After listening to the shopkeeper's words, Su Xiaosu's heart moved slightly.
Second watch?
Leng Yanxi returned to the inn so late?
He looked for her until he found the second watch to return to the inn? Is it because you're worried about her that your face is ugly?
However, he didn't know that she was in Wanyue Tower from the little girl, why did he appear in Wanyue Tower early in the morning?
The more I thought about it, the more upset I felt, so I stumbled upstairs, and when I returned to the room, Xiaoxue cried and hugged her, "Miss, you're finally back, I'm worried about the dead slave." β
Su Xiaosu comforted her a few words, and her emotions slowly stabilized.
After eating, Su Xiaosu and Xiaoxue went to Su Yirong's mother's grave to worship, and the thirteen princes also wanted to go with them, but Su Xiaosu refused.
Along the way, I heard Xiaoxue say something about Su Yirong's mother, and after a while, the carriage stopped. Xiaoxue jumped off the carriage, "Miss, this part of the road, we are going to walk." β
The two walked for about a pillar of incense before they saw the grave of Su Yirong's mother.
Su Xiaosu originally thought that the grave was only overgrown with weeds, but in front of him, under a thick camphor tree, the grave was neat. The tombstone is engraved with a line of gold characters, "The Tomb of Ye's Daughter Yingying". In the June weather, the grave was full of small flowers.
maybe
Su Xiaosu stepped forward and worshiped in front of the tomb with Xiaoxue, and after burning incense and kowtowing, Su Xiaosu asked Xiaoxue to retreat. Seeing Xiaoxue standing farther away, she estimated that she shouldn't be able to hear what she said, so she glanced at the tombstone, pondered for a while, and then said, "I've thought about it for so long, I don't know if it's appropriate to call you a mother." She smiled bitterly, "Mother, I am not your real daughter Su Yirong, I suddenly traveled from another time and space, and when I arrived at your daughter, I became the current Su Yirong." β
Su Xiaosu poured a glass of wine in front of the grave and said, "I don't want to occupy your daughter's body, it's just that I don't know how to leave, I don't know if I can leave in the future, and what will happen to her after leaving." Maybe you think it's ridiculous, I used to be the same, and I didn't believe that there would be a soul crossing, but the truth made me have to believe it. β
Su Xiaosu began to pull out a few small grasses by the grave again, and said, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of this body." From now on, I will no longer be Su Xiaosu, but just your daughter Su Yirong. β
Suddenly, a breeze struck, and the small flowers on the tomb danced in the wind.
She smiled lightly, "Then did you admit my daughter?" β
The small flowers on the tomb fluttered in the wind.
She got up, stared at the name on the tombstone, and called out loudly, "My name is Su Yirongβ"
Xiaoxue was shocked by this sound and turned around suddenly, and hurriedly ran over, "Miss, what's wrong?" β
"It's okay, let's go." She smiled softly.
Back at the inn, Leng Yanxi and the Thirteen Princes were already waiting for them.
Facing Leng Yanxi, Su Yirong had a complicated heart, and found a reason in a panic, saying, "I still want to stay here for a few more days." β
"Nope." He interrupted coldly,
"Why not? Here are memories of me and my mother, and I just wanted to stay longer. What's more, you can go back to Beijing first if you have something, anyway, with Xiaoxue with me, it won't be fine. She swore that she had just finished the last few words, and under the pressure of his eyes, her heart became weak, and she tilted her head slightly and added, "Yesterday was just an accident of accidents." β
"If the king says no, he just can't." Leng Yanxi's face sank.
"I'm not leaving." Saying that, Su Yirong was about to leave with Xiaoxue, but was hugged by Leng Yanxi and thrown into the carriage. The carriage set off all the way to the capital, and it was not until night that it arrived at the Rui Wang's Mansion.
Su Yirong jumped out of the carriage gloomily and walked towards Su Yixuan angrily. Xiaoxue followed her, trotting to catch up with her, shouting as she ran, "Miss, you go slower, Miss-"
Su Yirong was angry, and ran back to Su Yixuan angrily, lying on the bed sulking. Xiaoxue panted into the room, stroked her chest, and then walked to the side of the bed and said, "Miss, don't be angry with the prince." The prince is also worried about you, so he won't let you stay in Youzhou. β
Su Yirong sat up from the bed and stared at Xiao Xue's eyes, "Xiao Xue, even you have to help him speak, don't you?" β
"No, miss, the prince ......"
"He's a bully, a nasty ghost." Su Yirong scolded, and lay on the bed angrily. At this time, the stomach suddenly rumbled out of place. Hearing this, Xiao Xue smiled lightly, "Miss, Xiao Xue will go and bring you some snacks." β
A few days after returning to Beijing, Su Yirong naturally didn't give Leng Yanxi any good looks, and Leng Yanxi was as indifferent as usual.
One day, rainy day.
The capital is immersed in the dripping summer rain, and the rain in the sky is like a silk thread, fine and transparent. The rain fell on the stone slabs, corrugated, and trees, colliding into a cheerful tune.
The air was filled with the fresh smell of rain-soaked water.
Looking at the fine rain, Su Yirong excitedly kicked off the embroidered shoes, ran into the rain barefoot, kept spinning, screaming with joy, sometimes kicking the water, sometimes reaching out to hug the rain.
Xiaoxue hurriedly found an umbrella and ran into the rain, propped it on her head, and shouted loudly, "Miss, you will get sick like this." β
"How can it be so delicate." Su Yirong smiled and pushed the umbrella away.
Xiaoxue was worried, so she moved the umbrella over and propped it up above her head. Su Yirong pushed the umbrella away again, and begged: "Good Xiaoxue, if you let me play for a while, I will play for a while." β
"Miss-" Xiaoxue was still worried.
"In this case, you go and prepare hot water for me, and I'll go take a hot bath after playing for a while."
After thinking for a while, Xiaoxue went back to the room and went to prepare hot water. Su Yirong smiled and stepped on the water, for a long time, the mood had not been so relaxed.
The rain drenched her clothes and dark hair, and a few drops of rain hung on her long eyelashes, and in the blink of an eye, the raindrops slowly slid down her smooth skin.
"Aren't you afraid of getting sick?" A clear voice came from the rain with a hint of annoyance.
Su Yirong paused, and looked back in a daze, she saw a moon-white figure standing quietly next to the courtyard gate in the rain. He slowly approached her with an umbrella and moved it above her head, and his white shirt was immediately wet with the rain.
"Lord Wang, your clothes are wet." Su Yirong pushed the umbrella to his side.
"Now that it's wet, you don't have to hold an umbrella." Leng Yanxi threw the umbrella on the ground, "Do you like the rain very much?" β
Su Yirong nodded and smiled slyly, "Lord Wang, why did you come to Su Yixuan, the concubine?" It can't be that I want to be a concubine. β
When Leng Yanxi heard this, his body stiffened, and a trace of fluctuation flashed in his deep eyes. Suddenly, his face suddenly sank a little, and there was a trace of anger in his eyes, "Self-righteousness, this king is here to tell you that grandmother has been talking about you these days, and you will go into the palace tomorrow to see your grandmother." β
Su Yirong said with a smile: "It's hard for the prince to come and tell the concubine in person, maybe the prince already likes the concubine." β
"Shut up!" Leng Yanxi was furious, "Su Yirong, do you have any shame, you can say such frivolous words." β
"Frivolous?" Su Yirong smiled, "The concubine didn't say these things to other men, but said something intimate in front of her husband, which is not ashamed?" β
His face grew more and more gloomy, glared at her angrily, and he shook his sleeves and left.
The next day, Su Yirong got up early to freshen up.
Xiaoxue came over with a few pieces of jewelry, and when she saw Su Yirong lying in front of the bronze mirror, she hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" Is there something uncomfortable? β
"I'm fine."
"But, Miss, your face is so pale, you must have been sick in the rain yesterday, blame Xiaoxue, know that you will get sick in the rain, and let Miss go to the rain."
Su Yirong patted his face and said with a smile: "Look, is my face better?" β
Xiaoxue looked at her helplessly, "But? β
"It's just that my head is a little dizzy, it's not in the way, let's help me comb my hair, don't let my grandmother wait for me."
Su Yirong only combed a simple bun, pushed off those heavy jewelry, and only chose a hosta. Looking at his face in the mirror, his face was slightly pale, and he was busy applying a layer of rouge, and then he went out satisfied.
Su Yirong sat in the carriage, probably because the carriage was shaking, and his head was a little dizzy, so he slowly fell asleep unconsciously. When she arrived at the palace gate, the guards called many times outside the car before she woke up.
patted his head, Su Yirong went straight to the Queen Mother's Yongshou Palace. As soon as the Queen Mother saw her, she smiled and asked Su Yirong to sit beside her. Su Yirong was in good spirits and gave the fun gadgets he bought from Youzhou to the Queen Mother, although the handiwork was not as good as that in the palace, and it was a little rough, but the Queen Mother had never seen it, and she liked it very much.
After talking for a while, the Queen Mother took Su Yirong to Siyu Lake in the palace to enjoy the lotus. It is said that it rained yesterday, and many lotus flowers bloomed in the lake.
Su Yirong helped the old lady to Siyu Lake, and was immediately shocked by the scene in front of her.
The sun is thin and golden, and the dew flows in the morning.
The whole Siyu Lake is full of lotus. The lotus leaves are green and green, and at a glance, it looks like a green world. The lotus has just hit the flower bones, with buds waiting to be released, and there is no style.
Hexia also raised countless goldfish. If you look down, you can see schools of goldfish playing under the clear lake.
In the middle of the lake, a long pavilion was erected.
Standing in the pavilion, feeling the breeze and smelling the fragrance of summer lotus, there is a refreshing feeling.
However, Su Yirong had just arrived at the pavilion with the Queen Mother, and Concubine Liu also took the palace maid and eunuch to the pavilion.
The Queen Mother saw it from a distance, her face was cold, and she said to Su Yirong: "This Liu Guifei is really annoying, disturbing our tranquility. β
Su Yirong smiled slightly, thinking to herself, all the way over, the palace maids and eunuchs all saw the queen mother coming to Siyu Lake. She Liu Guifei wanted to come to Siyu Lake, so she would naturally hear from the palace maid and eunuch that the Queen Mother was here.
Ordinary concubines, knowing that the Queen Mother is in Siyu Lake, are afraid that they will turn back early. And this Liu Guifei clearly intends to come to Siyu Lake.
