On the afternoon of the day before the Duanyang Festival, Xing'er took a small burden and waited early in the Bibo Pavilion in the Imperial Garden.

Bibo Pavilion is the pavilion representing summer in the Imperial City of Great Xia, built close to a lotus pond, surrounded by water on three sides, connected with the cloister on one side, every midsummer, this pavilion is a good place to enjoy the lotus.

Today, Xing'er took the initiative to make an appointment with Jing Jin, and wanted to give him a herbal sachet made by himself to drive away the five poisons, as well as ...... Tomorrow is the Duanyang Festival, which is Xing'er's birthday, so Xing'er still wants to celebrate with Jing Jin.

Xing'er checked the small burden in her hand, which contained the herbal sachet she had prepared a long time ago, as well as a few pieces of fragrant cakes made of osmanthus nectar, and a pot of chrysanthemum brew that she had saved on the fifteenth day of last year, and bought it in the backyard of Shuqing Palace for several months, and she specially dug it out today.

Xing'er put the little burden on the stone table, sat aside, and quietly watched sleep, Xinhe had already shown his head.

-------------------------------------

In Shuqing Palace, Empress Dowager Guo had already woken up from a nap and was changing clothes.

"The Empress Dowager, Miss Chen asked to see her, saying that she wanted to help the Empress Dowager dress and change clothes." Xiuxin returned.

"Let her come in and serve." The Queen Mother spoke.

"Yes."

After a while, Chen Yiqing walked in, but today there was an extra green veil on her face.

"The girl is here?" The Queen Mother was looking at the bronze mirror on the floor and was putting on a bundle of clothes.

"Yes! Queen Mother, the girl is here to serve you, give me all the heart. ”

Chen Yiqing smiled and took the coat and belt from Juanxin's hand, Juanxin saw that she had taken over, so she withdrew from the room, who to change, Gui Chun's mother also stepped aside and beat her hands.

Everyone in the palace knows that Chen Yiqing is a quasi-princess, and this moment of currying favor with the Queen Mother will not be without eyesight, so everyone retreats to the second.

Chen Yiqing first helped the Queen Mother tie her belt, and then put a thinner coat on the outside. Now that it's summer, everyone is wearing a lot thinner.

The Queen Mother looked at the busy Chen Yiqing from the bronze mirror, smiling, how to see how she liked it.

"Girl, what kind of new trick are you, why do you cover your face?" The Queen Mother asked with a smile.

Chen Yiqing touched her face and hesitated.

"How?"

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just a pimple, and some dry skin from pollen allergies." Chen Yiqing said calmly.

"I didn't do it well when I made the multicolored thread bracelet a few days ago." The Queen Mother looked back at her.

Chen Yiqing smiled, didn't speak, and continued to sort out the Queen Mother.

"Have you asked the Imperial Doctor to take a look?" The Queen Mother frowned.

"It's okay, Queen Mother, I've had it before, maybe it's to drive away the five poisons today, and after eating some spicy things, I got acne."

The Queen Mother nodded, thinking about it, the eldest girl of seventeen or eighteen, when she was officially full of blood, it was normal to tease her for a long time, so she didn't ask in detail.

"If it's not good, let someone call the imperial doctor to take a look."

"Yes! The Queen Mother is relieved. Chen Yiqing's light and blessed body looks well-behaved and lovely.

The Queen Mother's clothes and makeup were quickly retouched, and the Queen Mother looked at herself in the mirror, and her complexion was really much better.

"Queen Mother, look at it, the complexion on your face is getting better and better." The Queen Mother nodded, "Yesterday after passing through the Imperial Garden, Qing'er saw that the new lotus in the Bibo Pavilion was exposed, and the weather is not hot today, so let's go and take a look." ”

"Queen Mother, your body is just better...... Gui Chun wanted to stop, but Chen Yiqing answered again.

"Yes, it's just fine, it's time to breathe fresh air, the Queen Mother has been depressed for the past few months, and the girl looks distressed." Chen Yiqing smiled and looked at Gui Chun's mother, and said: "A few days ago, Imperial Doctor Du also said that the spring flowers are blooming, you can walk around, and seeing that the beginning of summer has passed, the Queen Mother is still bored in this Shuqing Palace......"

"Okay, okay, just listen to Miss Qing, let's go out for a walk." Saying that, the Queen Mother got up.

"Juanxinxiuxin, you can follow suit. Take two dough fans. Gui Chun's mother said.

"Yes!"

Juan Xinxiuxin hurriedly prepared a group fan, and Chen Yiqing also brought her own group fan with her, and helped the Queen Mother to drive the Bibo Pavilion.

-------------------------------------

In Bibo Garden, Xing'er took out the sachet she wanted to give to Jing Jin from her sleeve pocket, looked at it, and found that one of the stitches was not very good, and some of them were dragged, trying to be as smooth and beautiful as possible.

Just as Xing'er was smiling and arranging the sachet, someone knocked her on the left shoulder with a fan. Xing'er hurriedly stuffed the sachet back into her sleeve pocket, thinking that Jing Jin had seen it all. His face flushed slightly, and he lowered his head.

"You're here......" Xing'er said softly.

The man hummed and sat down on the stone bench, then was silent.

"You saw it all?"

Xing'er asked timidly, her heart pounding. She didn't know what was wrong with her today, she was a little nervous, and she usually asked Jing Jin out to play, and she didn't see herself so nervous.

The man hummed again, still silent. He opened the small baggage, took out the contents and laid them on the stone table. Xing'er turned his back and turned back embarrassedly. The man took it upon himself and took a piece of incense cake and put it in his mouth.

"You made this osmanthus cake? Very good. ”

The man spoke, but Xing'er helped each other, this was not Jing Jin's voice, and he hurriedly turned his head to look. But it turned out to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Xing'er got up hurriedly and was blessed.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Xing'er froze and asked, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you, why are you here?" ”

Prince Jingzhang sat at the stone table, looked at her with a smile, and found that it had only been more than a month, Xing'er seemed to have grown a lot taller, more and more graceful, and the girl's figure had been revealed.

"Didn't you send the little eunuch here to celebrate your birthday this afternoon?" The prince said firmly.

Xing'er was a little stunned, thinking to herself, this little eunuch is really unreliable, he is obviously the seventh prince, why did he sue the prince?! Now it's hard to ride a tiger, and it's not admitting it, and it's not admitting it.

Not far away, on the small mound corridor, the group turned up and stopped there.

"Ah...... Yes, yes! As she spoke, Xing'er stretched out her little hand to the prince.

Jing Zhang didn't know what it meant, so he grabbed Xing'er's hand, this grasp, Jing Zhang was like an electric shock, Xing'er's hand was so soft, smooth and delicate.

Xing'er hurriedly pulled back, but after a while, she didn't twitch, and then she tried hard to take it back. Jing Zhang let go of her hand, and there was a sense of loss.

"You reached out yourself, why did you take it back." Jing Zhang looked at her.

"I, I...... Didn't you say that you came to celebrate my birthday, I asked you for a gift. With that, Xing'er turned his back away.

Jingzhang stepped forward, held her shoulders, turned her over, lowered her body to look at her, Xing'er stared at him, but Jingzhang found that he seemed to like this girl more and more, and the kind of good feeling since childhood seemed to have some other things.

On the cloister of the mound in the distance, the hostess surrounded by everyone stared at the girl in the blue wave pavilion with a gloomy face.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, please pay attention to your ......" Xing'er didn't finish her sentence when she was interrupted by another voice.

"Big brother is also here!" Jing Jin shook her fan and paced from the corridor.

Xing'er hurriedly stood up as if she had seen a savior. A pair of eyes for help looked at Jing Jin, and he was blessed.

"Say hello to the Seventh Highness."

"Excuse me, why have you and I ever seen each other like this." Jing Jin said the facts, and then gave up his hand. "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Seventh brother, you're here too, sit."

Saying that, Jing Jin sat down, but Xing'er stood aside. When Jing Jin saw her standing, he got up and pulled her to the stone bench next to her.

is also holding hands, also holding his shoulders, but it seems that it is commonplace between his seventh brother and Xing'er, the prince looked a little angry, and poured himself a glass of wine.

Not far from the corridor of the small mound, the Queen Mother pulled off the rosary in her hand, and a string of beads fell to the ground.

"Gui Chun, let's go, go to Wanchun Pavilion and sit down." The Queen Mother's voice was heavy and low, but her tone was not very good.

How the prince overturned the vinegar jar and brushed his sleeves away, and how the two of them exchanged gifts and drank to celebrate their birthdays, not to mention.

Chen Yiqing helped the Queen Mother turn around and go to Wanchun Pavilion, and through the light veil, Chen Yiqing pulled the corners of her lips and smiled contemptuously.

Spring has passed, and the peach forest not far from the Wanchun Pavilion has long been green, and many treetops have already hung up small green fruits.

"Queen Mother, look at those little green peaches, how cute." Chen Yiqing read the handkerchief and pointed to a tree not far away. Now the group has sat in the Wanchun Pavilion.

"Gui Chun, you can also sit down, we are relatives."

"Yes." Mama Gui Chun sat next to the Queen Mother.

"Queen Mother, you and Mama Gui Chun will sit down for a while, and I'll pick a few little peaches." Saying that, Chen Yiqing ran out.

"Just look at it, then get it, the peach hair will itch for a long time!" The Queen Mother instructed the Chen family, who had already run out.

"I know the Queen Mother." Saying that, Chen Yiqing pulled Xiuxin and ran away.

The Queen Mother looked at Chen Yiqing with a smile, running around, very happy.

"Gui Chun, if we were ten or twenty years younger, we would be able to run and jump like her, and now we are all old." Saying that, the Queen Mother patted the back of Gui Chun's hand.

"Queen Mother, if you are twenty years younger, you have just entered the Middle Palace." Gui Chun's usually cold face showed a hint of harmony.

The Queen Mother was chatting with Gui Chun about homely cooking and eating tea, and Chen Yiqing ran back sweating profusely, holding a few verdant little peaches in her hand. When the Queen Mother saw it, she hurriedly ordered someone to fetch water.

"Tell you girl not to touch this peach, beware of the peach hair piercing into the flesh, you will be uncomfortable. Give it to them, and you wash your hands. ”

"It's okay Queen Mother, I used to pick up this kind of little peach that fell on the ground when I was at home, it's okay." Although Chen Yiqing said this, she quickly put the peaches into the tray, and then washed her hands.

"Juanxin, go and lose it."

"Don't, don't! Just put it away for me. Chen Yiqing stopped Juanxin, "The Queen Mother, Miss Qing wants to keep the candied fruit for the Queen Mother." ”

After speaking, Chen Yiqing put the handkerchief into the basin, sat back in her seat, took her own fan, and went to run out of the heat just now.

Chen Yiqing fanned for a while, drank tea for a while, and drank for a while. The Queen Mother looked at her and was happy, and she also ate some fruits.

"Girl, your fan looks good, but the wind coming out of the fan smells of raw earth. The mourning family is a little unaccustomed to smelling, what kind of incense are you burning? ”

"Qing Yatou usually uses the incense in the palace, and it is just to smoke the clothes, this fan was given to Xing'er a few days ago, and Zhen'er also gave a handful. The Queen Mother didn't like the smell, so Qing'er wouldn't fan. Chen Yiqing hurriedly put away the fan.

Hearing Xing'er's name, the Queen Mother's face was a little heavy, but she didn't show it, but the Queen Mother's micro-expression, how could she escape Chen Yiqing's eyes.

-------------------------------------

A few days later, in the Shuqing Palace, Chen Yiqing ran into the Shuqing Hall from the backyard crying, and knelt on the ground as soon as she entered the door.

"Ask the Queen Mother to ask for a doctor for Qing'er......"

Chen Yiqing cried as she took off the green yarn covering her face, and when she saw Chen's face clearly, she only listened to it! With a bang, the Queen Mother's teacup fell to the ground......
