Everyone followed Rong Guifei up the mountain, fortunately it was only six o'clock in the morning, the sun had just come out, the weather was not very hot, and Chen Jieyu and others, who were tired like this, screamed bitterly and did not dare to complain.

Xiao Hangzhi followed Xie Weiyi closely, saying some nonsense to tease her, but Xie Wei ignored him.

After walking for three or four pillars of incense, everyone rested, and at this time they were not halfway up the mountain. Looking down the mountain, the eyes are full of cold green, and the carved eaves of the vermilion tile loom away.

After walking up for about a stick of incense, there is a bluestone paved bluestone path on the left side of the main road, which winds into the depths of the dense forest.

Concubine Rong instructed, "If you don't want to go with the palace, you can go up the mountain first." ”

When Xie Wei and the others heard this, they were like an amnesty. Chen Jieyu didn't want to follow, but she was curious about what kind of character this famous Concubine Xie was, so she forced herself to go with Concubine Rong. Fortunately, I didn't go far, it was a small path in the forest, cool and quiet, everyone talked and laughed and went forward, two tea kung fu, then saw several thatched houses, flowers and bamboos are covered, and the branches and vines on the fence are very elegant.

Su Yao heard the little girl say that Rong Guifei was leading everyone back and forth, and was waiting at the door.

Seeing Rong Guifei coming in, she hurriedly greeted her and said with a smile, "Niangniang is hard, why do you want to come here in person?" The road is so rough. ”

Concubine Rong smiled, "I just happened to stop by to see the concubine." ”

Xie Ruan Ning was leaning on the couch in the courtyard to read, and when he saw everyone coming in, he slowly got up. She is not as old as Rong Guifei, and she occupies the identity of a concubine of the former dynasty, and her rank is higher than that of Rong Guifei, so she does not plan to get up.

Rong Guifei smiled, "I haven't seen you for a few years, but the concubine is still so charming, and she is beautiful." ”

It's a genuine compliment.

As soon as she walked in and saw Xie Ruanning crooked on the couch, Rong Guifei was a little envious, ten years have passed, although she is not very hardworking, but there are faint traces of white hair on her sideburns, and the woman in front of her is beautiful, she is still the same as ten years ago, she looks like she is in her early twenties, she is not old, but her temperament is more clear.

Like a jar of wine, time will only make her more fragrant and intoxicating.

A few little girls had already moved rattan chairs and tables, and they served Rong Guifei and others in an orderly manner.

Xie Ruan Ning said lightly, "The lady is still beautiful. ”

Rong Guifei knows her temperament, and she is not angry, the two of them have no gossip, you come and go, and you are witty.

Chen Jieyu once saw a scroll of beauty hanging in His Majesty's bedroom, and the painting was quite expressive. At this time, I couldn't help but be surprised, the beauty in front of me was similar to the beauty in the painting, and the action of serving tea was the same as the action of holding flowers on the painting.

Unspeakably strange and surprised in her heart, she kept looking at Xie Ruanning, because her eyes were so hot that even Xie Ruanning, who was talking to Concubine Rong, felt it.

Seeing that someone was staring at him, Xie Ruan Ning glanced at Chen Jieyu lightly, looking at the clothes and battles, it was estimated that she was Xiao Yuena's concubine, and her rank was not low.

Well, it's just a long one.

Xiao Yue's taste is quite diverse now.

Chen Jieyu couldn't help but be a little annoyed when she saw this beauty looking at her, and tilted her head slightly and said, "Tongweier is smoky, and this palace doesn't like it." ”

Mingzhu on the side immediately took out a rose cake from his purse, opened the hand stove, and burned it carefully.

The rich and sweet smell of roses spread out, and Chen Jieyu was still uncomfortable.

Rong Guifei smiled slightly, "Jieyu can't smell it, it's better to go to the mountain and wait first, and the palace will arrive later." ”

Chen Jieyu was young but not stupid, knowing that this was the meaning of picking people, she got up and was blessed, and led people away with a frosty face.

Seeing people walking away, Xie Ruan Ning went straight to the point, "Niangniang came today, what to advise." ”

Concubine Rong saw that she went straight in single-handedly, and she didn't go around in circles, "The concubine has been cultivating in the mountains for many years, and everything is hard, so it is better to go down the mountain with the palace, and there is a good response." ”

Xie Ruan Ning glanced at her and asked nonchalantly, "Why." ”

Concubine Rong gritted her teeth, "Your Majesty...... A while ago, I pampered Minxing. ”

"The longer Min Xing gets, the more like you. Bengong thought, in the final analysis, that His Majesty still misses you. After a pause, Concubine Rong said again, "Minxing has promised the Northern Dynasty to Huaizhen's son, and the palace sees that the two are quite affectionate, and Huaizhen is very fond of Minxing. If His Majesty accepts Min Xing, how will Huaizhen swallow this breath? The two sides have been quiet for more than ten years, but they are afraid of fighting again. ”

Huaizhen once said, after the marriage, the north is not the first. For the country and the family, please be cautious. ”

Xie Ruan Ning took a sip of tea, the tip of her tongue was slightly bitter, her heart was turbulent, and she was distracted for a long time, she said, "Forgive me." ”

Rong Guifei had expected her to refuse, but she didn't expect her to refuse so simply.

Xie Ruan Ning said, "Minxing...... Well, I should be sixteen years old. Your Majesty pampered her, and was pleased with her appearance, character, and temperament, and it was to no avail for my mother to let me go back. ”

Xiao Yue is not that kind of person, who does he like because this person is like, what is the use of Rong Guifei letting her go back?

"If Your Majesty is concerned about me, he will not ignore me, and he will not see me once in ten years." After saying this, he chuckled and put down the white porcelain cup.

Rong Guifei saw that she had the intention of provoking people, and said hurriedly, "Wu Shuyuan's words back then could make His Majesty feel sorry for you, how could Min Xing be her opponent?"

Xie Ruanning's face changed slightly.

Rong Guifei took advantage of the situation and said, "Please also ask the concubine to think carefully." The main palace awaits the concubine. ”

After saying that, she got up, Su Yao sent Rong Guifei away, and when she came back, she couldn't help but sigh slightly when she saw that the second lady was still distracted.

Wu Shuyuan led everyone to climb the mountain and sat in the main hall and gossiped with everyone.

Lingbi pinched a butterfly in his hand for Xiao Hangzhi to see, Xiao Hangzhi has always been afraid of these fluttering moths, and even more afraid that the powder on the wings will fall off his body, thinking about it, his liver trembled three times, and he staggered three inches away from Lingbi, "Men and women are on guard, you stay away from me." ”

Lingbi wants to smile or not, "No." As he spoke, he stretched out his jade arm and shook the butterfly in front of Xiao Hangzhi's eyes.

Xie Weiyi was shaking the stick holder to play, shaking it around and dropping a few at a time, but he couldn't drop one, he was feeling uncomfortable, seeing Lingbi talking to Xiao Hangzhi, he snorted, dropped the stick holder and flicked his sleeves and walked out, Xiao Hangzhi hurriedly chased out. Lingbi said coldly, "Stupid." ”

Xie Wei hadn't stepped out of the door of the hall yet, when he heard Lingbi say, he was furious, and he was about to turn around to argue, when Xiao Hangzhi swept her out with a gust of wind.

Han Jin said, "Wei Yi is like a cannonball, why do you always provoke her." ”

Lingbi said, "It's fun." ”

Nanqing Mountain has always been less crowded, and today there are fewer people.

Xie Ruan Ning was depressed, "I'm going to catch a fish." Saying that, Su Yao was about to follow, Xie Ruan Ning waved his hand, "Let me be quiet." ”

There is a pond in the mountains, not far from where she lives, but the mountains are deep and densely forested, and the path is rugged and difficult to walk. When she first arrived on the mountain, she was very bored and wandered around, and accidentally found this pond, the grass was lush and the trees covered the sky, and it was even more rare that it was inaccessible, she came here alone when she wanted to be quiet, and later asked Su Yao to scatter lotus flowers and release a few fish.

From a distance, I saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy lying on a wicker chair she had placed by the pool, sleeping very peacefully.

Tsk, how did this person find him in such a remote place?

When I walked in, I found that this young man was sparse and light, restrained and calm, and seemed to be very tired, and he didn't hear the sound of her small footsteps.

After five seconds of struggle, she leaned down, "Little friend, let Jean, you occupy my fishing space." ”

The young man in brocade clothes woke up heavily, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a beautiful woman in front of him, his cherry lips were about to move, his eyes were about to flow, and his slender hand was holding an oil-paper umbrella, and the umbrella was obliquely painted with peach blossoms, and he was looking at himself indifferently.

Hearing her call him Xiaoyou, he felt very fresh and interesting, and when he realized that he was still lying down, he felt a little out of shape, he Shi Shiran got up and hummed coldly.

Xie Ruan Ning pointed to the rattan chair and said, "Little friend, this is a place where I specialize in fishing. ”

Only then did the young man react and bowed his hand apologetically, "Abrupt." ”

Xie Ruan Ning smiled, "It's okay. As he spoke, he put away his umbrella, took the hook and rod, threw it into the water at will, and sat down with a book to read as if no one was around.

The young man saw that she was reading a strange book, and his good-looking eyes were slightly surprised.

He also turned a few pages of such a book in his spare time, although it was nonsense, some of the stories were beautifully written, and it was quite interesting to read, and what she was holding in her hand was a miscellaneous book that she had read a while ago. There was a sentence in it that fit his current state of mind.

How does that sentence describe the beauty that suddenly appeared in the mountains?

It seems to be, the mood is romantic, and it makes people forget.

He was walking around, but he didn't expect to go farther and farther, and he walked more and more away, and accidentally came to this place, and he happened to see a resting place by the pool, and as soon as he lay down, he fell asleep without paying attention.

"You can't catch a fish like this." The young man spoke, expressionless.

Xie Ruanning's eyes moved on the page, and he didn't raise his head, "The one who wishes takes the bait." ”

The young man had no intention of leaving, and stood next to him for a while, looking at the quiet pool in a daze.

Xie Ruan Ning thought, I don't know who is a young man who has lost his way here.

Summer is changeable, and after a while, the wind and clouds surge, and it actually rains little by little.

Xie Ruan Ning put down the book and held up the umbrella, "Little friend, do you want to hide from the rain." ”

The boy looked at her, still expressionless, "Thank you." "I didn't mean to come.

The rain is fluttering, thin and thin, not big. Xie Ruan Ning thought that A-Yao would come to find him in a while, so he sat as steady as Mount Tai.

The boy's shirt was gradually wet from the rain, and he had to frown and cover his sleeves over his head.

Xie Ruanning got up, picked a lotus leaf by the pool, and walked over to hand it to him. The young man looked at it, took it, held it above his head, and said awkwardly, "Thank you." ”

Xie Ruan Ning walked a few steps away from him, quietly watching the rain hit the lotus leaves.

After a while, she chuckled, "The frog is standing on the edge of the pool, his eyes blank. ”

The boy reacted, only to realize that the woman, who looked not much older than him, was making fun of him.

After thinking about it for a while, he said in a deep voice, "There is a life that rushes in the rain, goes astray in the twilight, and is reckless in the mountains. You look around, and you can hear a roar behind the trees. There is a night fork, a halberd in the tooth, the eyes flashing double lights, and the claws split the deer and eat. Frightened, he was anxious to run down, but the Yaksha had seen it, and he was so frightened that his legs could not walk. Yaksha couldn't speak, and pulled a pampa leaf to rebirth, oh oh like a saying, 'Shelter from the rain?' ’”

Xie Ruan Ning sneered, but he didn't expect this young man to look old and calm, and he was talking nonsense in one set.

"Little friend, you terrible Yaksha?"

The young man said lightly, "Every family has a yaksha. ”

Xie Ruan Ning smiled, "You know a lot. What do you call it? ”

The young man thought for a moment and said, "Josu." From the high to the Qiao, the leisure of Southern Chu is called Su. ”

While the two were talking, Su Yao hurried over, saw her master, and hurriedly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, I brought an umbrella." The eldest son, the second son, and the young lady arrived. ”

Looking at Qiao Su, she asked with puzzled eyes, who is this?

Xie Ruan Ning smiled slightly, and handed the umbrella in his hand to Qiao Su, "Go back quickly." Beware of the Yaksha at dusk. ”

Qiao Su hesitated, took the umbrella, looked at it, and said, "How to pay you back?" ”

Xie Ruan Ning shook his head, "No need." He lifted his feet and left.

The boy insisted, "I don't owe anyone. ”

"When you walk along this road, you will find me when you see a hut."

The boy nodded, "Thank you." ”

On the way back, Su Yao said, "Wu Shuyuan is also here." ”

Xie Ruan Ning paused and rubbed his eyebrows, "Yaksha, I'm really afraid of her." ”
