A big hand reached over to help her straighten the lace in front of the cloak, the man's eyes were calm and focused, his movements were gentle and patient, and the slightly cool palm touched her chin from time to time, cold and slightly numb.

Ni Chuhe raised his eyes and looked up at his tight chin, his handsome face without a trace of expression, slightly distracted.

This man is quite good-looking when he is focused, even if he doesn't have any gentle expressions, he is not as young as other men, and he is full of the charm of a mature man, and he has more flavor than a young man.

The man fastened the strap, helped her gather her cloak again, and then took her hand and walked forward.

From beginning to end, the man was expressionless, did not put his superfluous gaze on her face, and his every move showed his carefulness and thoughtfulness all the time.

Somehow, Nichuhe suddenly wanted to laugh.

If it were a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, in the face of a man's behavior, I am afraid that she would have fallen a long time ago.

Even those elderly women in the house may not be able to resist such a gentle gesture from the other party.

It's a pity that she is not a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, nor is she one of those women in the house who revolve around him, although there is a moment of trance, it is only a moment.

She admits that she is also a little tempted by such a man, which is human nature, but can she still keep her sanity at this time and think about something else, is it not funny?

She couldn't imagine that the other party was deliberate, it was difficult to do such a thing with the stereotypical and boring nature of the fourth master, but she still couldn't help but think about it, and then laughed when she thought about it.

The fourth master held her hand slightly, tilted his head to look at her, his eyes narrowed slightly, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Ni Chuhe looked at him with a smile, his eyes were bright, and he calmly said his thoughts, "I was thinking, the fourth master was very suspicious of deliberately seducing me just now. ”

The fourth master's face froze for a moment, and then anger welled up in his eyes, and he snorted coldly, "Guerjia, you are not small!" ”

But he didn't say anything else.

Ni Chuhe asked curiously, "Then the fourth master said, is there any?" You didn't deny it, does that mean I guessed right? Was the fourth master really seducing me just now? ”

Since waking up, Ni Chuhe has not called himself a concubine anymore, he has always called himself me, and the fourth master has never corrected it.

Before resuming the relationship she once had, Nichuhe was reluctant to call herself a concubine, because that would mean that she had acknowledged the relationship between the two and had fallen behind.

Now that she calls herself me, she is just Nichuhe, not the side Fujin Guerjia clan of Prince Yong in the palace.

The fourth master had a cold breath on his face, and his eyes were also cold, he avoided answering her questions, only clenched her hand, his voice was very cold, with a warning, "Even if you keep talking, I don't mind teaching you a good lesson tonight, so that you know what to say and what not to say." ”

Ni Chuhe smiled, "Then I won't ask more, the fourth master will spare my mouth and say nothing." ”

Although she admitted her mistake, the fourth master's face was still not good, and it was obvious that she didn't really admit her mistake, so she was angry for a while, ignored her, and walked straight inside.

Nichuhe followed behind, sensing the other party's awkward mood, exactly the same as before, which suddenly made her feel less strange and worried, but she didn't speak again to anger him, only smiled slightly.

As soon as she got off the carriage before, she saw the three words inscribed on the plaque in front of the gate, and naturally knew what place this was.

It is said that the Old Summer Palace is located in the northwest suburbs of the Forbidden City, and it was a garden given to the fourth son Prince Yong during the reign of Kangxi, and it was very famous in later generations.

At this time, the Old Summer Palace was only when it was first built, and the scale was not large, and it was a small piece of garden carved out from the north of Changchun Garden, which was given to Prince Yong alone.

The surrounding trees are shady, the scenery is very good, and there are many other gardens, some of which were given by Kangxi to other sons.

At this time, he was still very excited to see the future of the Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens, even if it was just an ordinary garden where the prince lived now, it didn't make any sense.

Of course, when the fourth master ascends the throne, the scale will be even larger, and she will also live here, and she will be happy when she thinks about it.

However, what did the fourth master do when he brought her here at this time?

There were eunuchs left behind in the garden, and the chief eunuch Li Ping led a large number of eunuchs to greet him, and saluted, "The slave greets the prince." ”

Prince Yong waved his hand, said lightly, "No courtesy", took Ni Chuhe's hand and walked inside, saying as he walked, "Every summer in the future, people in the house will come to live in the garden, you have been in the courtyard all these years, everyone else has already chosen a courtyard, the master asked people to leave you a few better places to live, you choose the one you like, the master let people clean up, and you can move in this summer." ”

Hey? Where for her to pick and choose? This is good.

Since she still wants to return to this place in the future, she is not welcome, and naturally wants to find one she likes.

Behind, Li Ping quietly glanced at the woman walking side by side with the prince in front of him, full of curiosity, and asked Su Peisheng beside him, "Who is this?" Why are you bothering the prince to bring it over personally? But which new master has entered the mansion? Brother Su pointed and pointed at the brothers. ”

Su Peisheng was very impressed by this Brother Su, and smiled, "You are not in the mansion, I don't know, this is the person who our prince put on the tip of his heart, do you remember the few courtyards that you left before?" Well, it's for this one. ”

Li Ping suddenly realized, and smiled flatteringly, "It turns out that this is the one, so you can't slack off." ”

In addition to the courtyard when I first came in, it was used as the fourth master's study office, and when I went inside, it was where the ladies of the back house lived.

There are many lakes in it, and yards are scattered around the lakes and on small islands.

Those who have already lived in it don't think about it, and Ni Chuhe will choose from the places specially left by the fourth master.

The fourth master left her three places, all of which are many houses, the yard is relatively spacious, more than a little larger than the courtyard in the house before, and the surrounding scenery is also very good.

There are two courtyards in the west of the garden, one of the courtyards is planted with green bamboo, and planted with pine and willow trees, the environment is quiet, and the plaque outside the courtyard carries the three words "Shao Jingxuan".

The second courtyard is also in the west, called the goldfish pond, surrounded by water, the yard is big enough, the house is not more than one, but the inside is very spacious, the summer is cool, you can get a big flower garden in the yard, plant many flowers and plants.

There is a water pavilion in the pond on the north side of the courtyard, where you can watch the fish and enjoy the scenery in summer, and there is an arch bridge next to it, which is also a good place.

The last one is in the northeast of the Old Summer Palace, the place is not small, surrounded by mountains, the forest is luxuriant, two sycamores are planted in the yard, there are grape trellises at the courtyard wall, quiet and elegant, but far away from the front yard.

These places are good, but Ni Chuhe prefers the second one, the one surrounded by water, the yard is big enough, she can plant some flowers and trees she likes in the yard at will, and Xiao Chen can also play freely in it.
