Rongyuan's territory is really not small.

After entering the gatehouse and passing through the shadow wall, there is a huge courtyard inside.

There is a high platform in the middle of the courtyard, and a red carpet is laid on the ground of the high platform, and there is no shelter on all sides, except for a pillar not far from the stage, on which are hung with drums and scoreboards, which are used to judge winners and losers.

The first floor is a loose seat, and the second and third floors are all private rooms.

The four of them were dressed extraordinarily, and although they didn't bring an entourage, they knew at a glance that they were either rich or noble.

When the four princes threw over a silver ingot, the steward's face was already smiling, and he hurriedly led him to the most luxurious and best box on the second floor to watch the game, and kept boasting about how stinging, exciting, and popular the women's sumo wrestling in Rongyuan was.

The prince was impatient to hear this, frowned and asked, "When will it start?" ”

The steward's busy smile replied: "A few sons sit down for a while, drink some tea to moisten their throats first, our Rongyuan's tea is also worth tasting." ”

"When did you start? Don't talk about what you don't have. The fourth prince shouted with a smile.

The steward didn't dare to be crooked, and replied respectfully: "The game still has half an hour to start, if the sons are bored, you might as well go downstairs to the back garden, there is a lotus pond, the lotus flowers in it are blooming very well, and there is a branch and a lotus, but it is rare." ”

When Shen Wenjiang heard this, he became interested and immediately said that he wanted to take a look.

The crown prince and the fourth prince were a little excited.

Ji Nancheng was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Then I'll accompany Miss Shen to go together." ”

Seeing this, the prince wanted to change his mind again, but he was pestered by the four princes to play with shooting, and he was punished for drinking.

The two took the opportunity to go downstairs and walked to the back garden.

The steward did not lie.

There is indeed a lotus pond in the back garden, which is not very big, and it is full of lotus flowers.

This is the season when lotus flowers are in full bloom.

I saw the turquoise of the pond, and the bushes showed pink.

The pink-colored lotus flowers are very beautiful against the backdrop of the large green discs, and the view is intoxicating.

A fresh breeze came, and the lotus fragrance hit the tip of the nose.

It's fragrant and unforgettable.

And the steward's word of Beatileine was right in front of them at this moment.

The flowers have their own pedicles, but they are joined together on the stems.

The two branches are also slim, like a shy girl, with pink beads, crimson in color, full of dripping, and smiling slightly.

The two sat side by side on a large bluestone slab, silently enjoying this rare peace and leisure.

In his lifetime, he can still watch and Dilian with the prince, Shen Wenjiang sighed again in his heart.

Ji Nancheng didn't hold back after all, and quietly stretched out his arm.

Shen Wenjiang leaned over and rested his head on his shoulder.

Shizi's slender arm wrapped around her and rested lightly on her shoulder.

Shen Wenjiang was in a very happy mood, and couldn't help humming a ballad softly.

Originally, it was just a little song she hummed at random.

Ji Nancheng was shocked when he heard this, and turned his head to look at her in surprise.

When he was a child, his mother used to lull him to sleep with this little song.

Mother said that this is a folk song from her hometown.

Miss Shen is from Lingnan, how can she sing this little song?

Shen Wenjiang didn't notice it, she still sang devotedly, and the memories that she had deliberately forgotten in the depths of her heart suddenly came flooding in her mind like a tide.

Her mother, of course, is also from the southwest, and is the personal maid of Mrs. Hou Li in Zhennan, and her boudoir name is called "Baizhu".

Back then, it was also under the mediation of Mrs. Li that the deputy general of Zhennanhou married the maidservant girl next to Mrs. Li.

After marriage, the two also had a short happy life, but unfortunately Bai Zhu injured her body when giving birth to a child, and she never recovered after that, and Shen Wu often fought with the Hou Ye, so Mrs. Li took the initiative to help take care of their daughter.

Mrs. Li took care of her very carefully, and often sang the folk songs of her hometown to her.

In the last life, the reason why she wanted to revive the Ji family so desperately, in addition to the son, was that she had long regarded the Ji family as her own home, and she also regarded herself as a member of the Ji family.

And the maternal love she has received since she was a child, Mrs. Li has given the most.

And all this, for her now, can't be shared with others, not even the son.

At some point, she burst into tears.

Although Ji Nancheng didn't know why she was so sad, he couldn't help but tighten his arms and hugged her even tighter.

Shen Wenjiang raised his head, quietly wiped away the wetness in his eyes, and said with a forced smile: "It's okay, I just remembered some things, and I was a little sad." ”

"Is it about your mother?" Ji Nancheng asked.

Shen Wenjiang nodded, "My mother died when I was very young. ”

"I know, so, that song just now, was sung to you by your mother?"

Shen Wenjiang nodded again, and suddenly realized the intention of the prince's words, and there was a moment of struggle in his heart, and only after a while did he sigh and said: "My mother, her home is in the southwest, so I am also selfish when I say that the prince will go to the southwest this time." ”

"It's no wonder." Ji Nancheng said in a low voice, and then laughed, "This proposal is very good, I also want to meet them." ”

"Who will be?"

"The person who hurt my father last year threatened to destroy the thief who was my big job."

It was also the group that injured Shen Wu with poisoned arrows.

Shen Wenjiang silently added in his heart.

It seems that for both public and private reasons, this trip must be made.

The lotus leaves in front of them are dotted with light red and dark red, which is simply beautiful, but the mood of the two of them is no longer as charming as just now.

However, in Shen Wenjiang's heart, she will always remember.

Once in a very beautiful season and a beautiful place, the prince accompanied her to see the light blue crimson of Mantang, and saw the "happy and happy hundred years of harmony".

One after another, people walked this way, and the footsteps and laughter continued.

The two of them had to get up and hurried to the second floor of the courtyard.

The sumo wrestling tournament on the stage has begun, but it is for men.

The fourth prince is losing his temper, and what he wants to see is whether the women's sumo is good or not.

The steward was explaining to him, "Don't be impatient, little boy, this one is over, and the next one is." ”

"That's pretty much it." The fourth prince pouted, and then sat back.

The prince relied on his identity and did not speak on the side, and at this time the person in charge had already walked away, and when only the two of them were left, he couldn't help but count him down and said: "I said can you have a little self-cultivation, what is it like to shout here, and die of shame." ”

"What's the shame of that?" The fourth prince said indifferently, "Master, I spent money, naturally I have to see what I want to see, since this Rongyuan has played a gimmick of a women's sumo match, then it has to be cashed in, otherwise it is a deception." ”

"What did you deceive?"

"Trick my eyes."

The prince was speechless with anger.

This is outside, so you can't be a little more restrained, in case someone finds out your identity and then spreads it to the capital, it won't be good.

Just as Ji Nancheng and the others came back, the prince immediately found a savior, "Tingrui, tell him quickly, this kid is too hateful." ”

"Where am I hateful? In that case, it's very common. "The fourth prince has an expression that you don't understand anything.

Prince:

How could he have such a noisy brother?
