18. Juicy
The concubine over there was dressed in a light blue embroidered double butterfly brocade robe, with a light blue gold thread as the bottom, and a red gold hairpin on her head, so beautiful, I heard that her father had just won the battle at the border, and the emperor also favored her, Liang Guiren was also dressed in brocade, with an emerald green top and a pure white long skirt, and the embroidery process of the lily could be seen to be not a mortal hand.
Xia Li is in her own position, compared with these radiant concubines, she is a little brilliant, her indifference, which makes her whole person a lot more noble, although there is no other person's full of pearls, but it is also eye-catching.
The wine and delicacies on the table, the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, the palace maids in the palace danced beautifully, which was refreshing, Xia Li was chased and drank three glasses of spirits, and she was a little dizzy at this time, seeing that everyone was just right, Feng Moyu was also hooked by the two Zhaoyi, Xia Li turned around and shouted, and went out with her to breathe.
The air in the courtyard is a little cooler than in the palace, and there are strange flowers and plants, rockeries, flowers and trees are sparse, it is a little more prosperous than the imperial garden in the palace, it is cool and penetrating here, Xia Li only feels that his heart is transparent, and his body is much more comfortable.
After walking for a while, he sat on the edge of the pool, the koi pond was crystal clear, translucent and abnormal, the koi in the pool competed to play, so lively, Xia Li played for a while, took off his shoes, held the corner of his skirt, and walked along the edge of the pool.
The koi fish in the pond swam around, there was no one around, Xia Li forgot to play, went to pay no attention to the feet, suddenly an unstable, stepped on a rough stone, saw that it was about to slip, exclaimed, the next moment, Xia Li entered a warm embrace, only felt that there was a faint fragrance of magnolia flowers on the tip of the nose, mixed with a strange man's breath.
I was shocked, and I hurriedly turned my head to look, only to see Wei Wuxian staring at Xia Li in his arms with a flushed face, and said in a low voice, "Niangniang, be careful, the stones in this pool are very slippery." ”
Xia Li bit his lower lip lightly, supported by Luo'er, and went ashore, this is the first time he has approached other men except Feng Moyu, and he has saved his Wei Wuxian many times, he saved himself again this time, so that he will not fall into this pool in embarrassment, although the pool is not deep, but if he goes back to change his clothes at this hour, he is afraid that he will come out for too long, and it will be easy to arouse suspicion, Xia Li hurriedly thanked him.
As soon as he lowered his head, he saw that his snow-white feet were exposed to the air, and his snow-white feet were blooming like white lotus on the green grass.
"Niangniang, Lord Xia asked me to bring a message to Niangniang." Wei Wuxian lowered his head, forcing himself not to take one more look, and even held back the same throbbing in his heart, and said in a low tone.
Xia Li also hurriedly straightened his expression and said, "What did my father say?" ”
"After Lord Xia read Niangniang's letter, he only asked Weichen to tell Niangniang that everything is up to Niangniang, but remember that your own safety should be put first." After Wei Wuxian finished speaking, he glanced at the direction of the Frost Hall in the distance, and said in a deep voice, "Niangniang has been out for a while, and going back quickly and slowly will arouse suspicion." ”
After Wei Wuxian finished speaking, without waiting for Xia Li to ask Xia Yu what else he said, he flew away and disappeared into the garden, but with a flash of kung fu, Xia Li heard the little fan over there chasing after him, and said, "Niangniang is playing here, and the emperor is in a hurry." ”
"I'll go back to the palace." Xia Li put away her panicked thoughts, put on her shoes, and returned to the Frost Palace, and saw Feng Moyu's anxious gaze falling on her from afar.
"Your Majesty, the concubine just drank the strong wine and felt a little dizzy, so she went out for a walk." Xia Li leaned over and saluted, and said softly, the singing and dancing over there continued, and the faces of several concubines were also a little flushed.
Feng Moyu saw that her cheeks were crimson, it must be because of the wine, so she hurriedly asked Luo'er to help Xia Li go back to Tingyu Pavilion, that night, the emperor did not come to Xia Li, I heard that she went to Concubine Mei's garden, Xia Li was a little lucky, lying on the couch, the cool breeze outside the window, blowing her long black hair.
Thinking of being in the garden today, Wei Wuxian's actions blushed again, that chest was different from Feng Moyu, Wei Wuxian's chest was more solid and reliable, giving her a sense of reassurance, for a long time, she was still immersed in memories.
Unknowingly, in the early morning of the second day, Xia Li was woken up by a bird's call, and as soon as Luo'er was serving and freshening up, she saw Xiao Mingzi walk in, saying that the queen had invited all the ladies to her Fengyue Hall for a gathering.
The queen's Fengyue Palace, located in the southeast side of the palace, faces the sea on three sides, the scenery is excellent, the sea breeze blows, it is very cool, just enter the park and see the rockery everywhere, the flowers are splendid, the concubines are not envious.
When everyone arrived, the queen mother was embroidering the dragon and phoenix on the purple and black sandalwood shelf, and when she saw everyone, she put down the needle and thread in her hand, smiled, dignified and generous, and said, "The sisters come to the palace today, this Fengyue Palace, the palace has good things for you, Ruolan, go and ask them to bring it." ”
After a while, I saw a few palace people walking in with trays, it turned out to be a fresh fruit paid tribute by Fanbang, which was originally rare in the palace, and now it is a fresh object in this summer palace.
When the concubine over there saw it, her face was surprised, and she said, "The queen mother is really a rare treasure here, and the red lily paid tribute by this state is a good thing, don't say that the season is wrong, even if the season is right, there may not be a fruit of this size!" ”
"Listen to you, you're a glutton, this is the younger brother of the palace specially sent from outside the palace, knowing that you are all a lover of food, and now the palace can't be monopolized, so I enjoyed it with a few sisters."
The queen said, while taking Ruolan to peel off the red lily, the juice is sufficient, the flesh is white, put in the mouth is a sweet smell, see a few concubines also feel a little thirsty, there are also maids waiting to eat a few, can't help but feel comfortable.
"This fruit was specially placed in the ice cellar by the people of the main palace, and it is just refreshing at this time." Seeing that Xia Li over there had only taken a bite, the queen asked, "Concubine Shu doesn't like this fruit?" ”
Xia Li thought about the queen's apse along the way that was the place where her sister fell into the water, and her thoughts lingered in her heart, and when she heard the queen shouting to herself, she hurriedly said, "The concubine just thinks that this fruit tastes sweet and juicy, and she is afraid of eating too much. ”
Xia Li's playful words caused everyone to chuckle, the queen waved her hand, and Ruolan said in a low voice, "Don't worry, the queen has prepared a lot for all the mothers, and it will be sent to the palace in a while." ”
"Can you eat it now?" The queen smiled gently and generously.
