The snow was extremely strong, and the round beads fell on the glazed tile roof with a crackling sound.

Su Yijing entered the heart hall outside and felt the heating on his face, and a few small snow beads fell on his forehead after the heat rose and turned into water droplets and hung on the bun crystallinely, before he arrived at the warm pavilion, he heard a laugh from inside, and the hand holding the plate trembled slightly, since she had never seen a concubine enter the warm pavilion, why was there someone at this time?

I wondered for a while, then walked in gently, she hung her head, only vaguely saw two people standing in front of the palace, one was wearing a magenta twisted feather satin robe, the cuffs showed a little white fox fur, and the head was swaying with a string of beaded jade, it was a concubine, but she lowered her head and smiled, Su Yi did not see her face, the other was Hongli, he was wearing a robe with a purple and golden dragon pattern, and he was holding the concubine's hand on the case one by one, and the other injured hand was hanging behind him.

Su Yi couldn't help but feel frightened, she shouldn't have ventured into such a situation, but Wu Shulai didn't tell her anything before she came in, she lost her sense of proportion for a while, and gently put a bowl of plum blossom steamed dew on the side of the dragon case and wanted to withdraw, but she heard Hongli suddenly say: "Didn't you just say that you want to eat yogurt dew?" ”

Su Yi was stunned, and then stood there, only to hear a soft voice sound: "The concubine just said it casually, don't think that the concubine is greedy." ”

Hongli smiled faintly and ordered, "You go to the imperial tea room to pass a bowl of yogurt dew." ”

This was said to Su Yi.

Su Yi blessed his body and said, "Yes." ”

After saying that, he withdrew.

Hongli looked at her figure, slightly distracted, she should have been extremely shy, her pale face was drunk red, and there were some droplets of water faintly hanging on a few strands of broken hair on her forehead, and the faint fragrance came out of her clothes, but it was not as rich and choking as the person in front of her, it was extremely light and pleasant.

"Hooray?" The woman in front of her realized the emperor's loss of consciousness and called out.

Hongli came back to his senses for a while, sat on the chair, and hooked the woman into his arms with a slight movement of his hands, and said, "What is the smell on your body?" ”

The woman smiled charmingly, "It's some Western perfume in Xingong, as for what it smells like, the concubine doesn't know, and the concubine thinks it smells good and uses it." ”

Hongli whispered, heard the slight footsteps and leaned over to kiss the woman's cheek, squinted at the figure stunned a few steps away and slowly let go of the beauty in his arms, lazily looked at Su Yi and did not speak, Su Yi was already ashamed, her cheeks were hot, and when she saw the woman standing on the emperor's side with shame, she bit her lip and walked up, put the bowl on the table and withdrew.

The woman walked to the table and said with a smile: "Long live the lord spoils the concubine like this, the concubine is really afraid that one day she will be spoiled by the long live lord." ”

Hongli said lightly: "You eat it while it's hot." It's getting late, so let someone send you back! ”

The woman was startled, the slender jade hand holding the bowl trembled slightly, and looked back at Hongli, only to see Hongli sitting in front of the emperor and holding a fold in his hand as if he was looking, but the look was indifferent, so gentle and delicate, but for a moment she said such cold words, she thought that she could stay overnight tonight, but she didn't expect it to be such a scene after all......

Biting his lip, he put the bowl on the table, and said angrily: "The concubine suddenly didn't want to eat again, and the concubine retired." ”

After speaking, she wanted to turn around and leave, but the pace was extremely slow, she was waiting for Hongli to call her, but the hanging heart finally slowly sank, out of the heart hall only felt cold, the snow beads in the sky fell down, in front of the hall is an octagonal moon palace lamp made of good glass, bright and dazzling but not a trace of warmth.

A palace maid immediately stepped forward, handed over a hand warmer, and draped a brocade cloak of begonia on her, the brim of the hat was soft and white fox fur, and a group of palace people helped her through the verandah, but she saw a familiar figure, and hurriedly called: "Su Yi ......"

Su Yi was about to go to the imperial tea room, when she heard someone calling her, she hurriedly stopped, and when she turned around, she saw a delicate woman in a gorgeous dress, with a charming little face hidden in the white fox fur, which looked even more small and exquisite. Suddenly startled, he unconsciously showed a surprised smile: "Xuanzhu? ”

As soon as he spoke out, he felt that it was inappropriate, and when he saw Jin Xuanzhu wearing brocade clothes and makeup, he already knew that she was the concubine who was in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and immediately asked for peace, "The slave asks for peace for the Jiaguiren, and the Jiaguiren is auspicious." ”

Xuanzhu hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her, and said with a smile, "It's really you?" I just felt that the figure was familiar in the warm pavilion, I wanted to call you, but I couldn't open my mouth when the Lord was there, when did you enter the Heart Cultivation Palace? ”

Su Yi replied, "When the Lord of Long Live ascended the throne, I came to the Heart Cultivation Hall from the imperial dining room, and I have been serving in front of the emperor for a while. ”

Xuanzhu smiled: "It's a good thing to serve in the Heart Cultivation Palace, the imperial dining room is too crowded, it's better to be in front of the emperor." ”

Su Yi only smiled and didn't explain.

When Xuanzhu saw that Su Yi was emaciated, she knew that she had suffered a lot, and she couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and said, "You have suffered in the palace in the past few years. ”

"I didn't suffer anything, but I was trapped in the palace all day and couldn't be free." Su Yi heard that she was worried, and her heart warmed and said.

"You don't have to hide it from me, although we haven't met in the two years since you entered the palace, I also learned a lot of news about you from my cousin, you are so thin, if your cousin knows it, he may feel more distressed, even if it is for his cousin, he should take good care of his body." Xuanzhu's words touched Su Yi's heart, and when she thought of Gu Yanzhao, she couldn't help but blush on her cheeks.

Xuanzhu didn't see it, the palace maid next to her stepped forward to remind her of the time, she frowned, and scolded: "Mouthy! This palace just said a few words to his sister, and it didn't take much time. ”

Su Yi saw that her face was displeased, and the palace maid beside her was aggrieved, so she didn't dare to delay her anymore, and said: "The little master should go back, it has such a heavy snowfall, and the road is slippery after dark, so I should go back as soon as possible." ”

Xuanzhu looked at the heavy snow floating outside the porch, raised her eyebrows and smiled, and said, "Well, it's really late today, if it wasn't for the long live lord to keep me, I could have gone back earlier." Since you know that you are in the Heart Cultivation Palace, then we will definitely have the opportunity to meet in the future. You have to take care of yourself, don't worry my cousin. ”

Su Yi blessed her body, watched Xuanzhu pass by the road and got on her shoulder, and then slowly walked back.

After the fifth day of the first month, the palace began to gather around the Shangyuan Festival, the emperor and the queen mother's concubines also began to move the Old Summer Palace, preparing for the Shangyuan Festival, the personnel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who specialize in festival lights, as early as the Forbidden City Palace and the Old Summer Palace and other royal gardens in the hanging of all kinds of luxurious palace lamps: grass lanterns, jade lanterns, glass lamps, amber lamps, bead lamps, sheepskin lamps, Luo silk lamps, boneless lamps, etc., but because Yongzheng Ye just died last year, he did not use the round and huge East Pearl inlaid ten brocade lotus pattern jade lamps, but the palace and the Old Summer Palace have begun to perform various programs, There are dragon lantern dances, circus performances, and fireworks watching, but all the dramas that come here are avoided because of the death of the first emperor.

It's easy to get to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the sky is just slightly dark, the Old Summer Palace is lit everywhere with all kinds of palace lanterns, the jade lamps are dazzling, such as the ice clear jade pot, the sheepskin lamp is finely carved, such as dyeing and makeup, the boneless lamp splits the light and stacks the emerald, such as the natural, there are more crystal clear ice lamps, the colored lights of the warp gauze show colorful colors as soon as they shine, and they are extremely bright.

Zhengda Guangming Hall held a banquet of the Mongolian clan, accompanied by the princes and ministers, concubines, and the dinner was dispersed, which was to enjoy the lanterns. According to the customs of previous years, there are many kinds of colorful treasure lanterns hung in front of the palace, each lantern has riddles, all the princes and ministers, harem concubines and even Mongolian clans can guess the riddle, if you guess correctly, you can get the emperor's reward. The emperor announced the rules for guessing lantern riddles, and everyone was busy, and they all looked for a palace lantern to check.

Hongday wore a navy blue five-clawed golden dragon robe, wore a sable red velvet top warm hat, and was standing in front of a high-hanging eight-treasure glazed lantern to look at the puzzle of the above question: solve the three autumn leaves, can bloom February flowers, cross the river and thousands of waves, and enter the bamboo ten thousand poles. Then he smiled softly and shook his head, this question is too easy, isn't it the wind, because he thinks it is easy to guess it, he doesn't think it's interesting, so he just walks to another lantern.

This is a pale cyan Qiluo yarn palace lamp, boxy, angular, very warm, tulle pasted with a puzzle: born in a rich family, often in and out of the glory. Long live has also passed on the holy decree, and generations of children and grandchildren have been exploring flowers.

Hongtian thought about it for a while, and then he had the answer in his heart, isn't this the bee that works hard every day. Even guessing two questions is so easy, Hongtian felt bored, so he scattered casually, and inadvertently saw a high-hanging hexagonal jade fan carved lamp, so he looked up and looked at the puzzle above: good birds have no intention of falling in love with the old forest, eating insects and singing in the wind, eight thousand miles of road casually, partridges fly to the ten-mile pavilion. After thinking for a moment but still not guessing the answer to this question, he heard a warm voice sound: "Luan Feng and Ming." This question is wonderful. ”

Suddenly looked up, I saw a man dressed in a pine flower placket robe, with handsome eyebrows and outstanding demeanor, and praised in his heart: What a gentle and humble gentleman. The man obviously saw his gaze, and immediately leaned over slightly and saluted, "Lord Wang." ”
