"Princess, I heard that the envoy of the Western Vulture is preparing to leave Yunqi today."

Back in Zhaoyun Palace, Fu Dong also went to pick a few branches, and said casually while inserting them into the white porcelain amphora water pattern bottle.

Zhaoyun was sitting on the soft collapse on the side, holding the needle and poking it at the embroidery. Hearing this, in a trance, the tip of the needle accidentally poked on the thin white fingertip.

As a tingling pain came, a bead of blood instantly emerged and dripped on the embroidered red brocade.

"Oh, how is this good?" Fu Dong hurriedly put down the mandarin duck in his hand, looked at the mandarin duck stained with blood, and said urgently with thin eyebrows.

Zhaoyun looked at the little bloodstain and didn't care much: "Don't worry, it doesn't look like a tear in the corner of a mandarin duck's eye?" Besides, this brocade itself is red, and you can't see it if you don't look closely. ”

"When I was a child, I heard my grandmother say that if Xipa was stained with blood, it would be unlucky. If it is dyed with the embroidered object, it is a great omen! Thinking of what Grandma said, a trace of nervousness came to Fu Dong's heart.

Isn't that a big murderer! Zhaoyun thought secretly, but there was a light cloud on his face.

"Princess, don't be careless, what the old man said can be true!" Fu Dong stepped forward to hold her fingers and said urgently.

"It's okay, I have a sense of proportion!" A smile appeared on the corner of Zhaoyun's mouth, since the last time she talked late at night, this girl has become more and more intimate.

"Princess! The prince of Xiwu has sent an envoy again! Mingcui came from outside, panting.

Zhaoyun unhurriedly put down the big red brocade in his hand, and walked out of the main gate with Ming Cui, who was wiping the sweat on his forehead.

It was the tall, burly, bearded envoy named Ruda who had come before.

Seeing her coming, Ruda hurriedly stepped forward, put one hand into a fist on his chest, knelt on one knee on the ground, and bowed his head to her.

Zhaoyun turned sideways slightly, staggering away from him.

For she knew that what he was doing was the highest etiquette in Xiwu, and it was generally only to the royal family. In this world, she can't afford this gift.

Ruda took out a carved lacquer box from his bosom, held it up to the top of his head, and respectfully offered it with both hands.

Zhaoyun hesitated for a moment, took it from his hand, and hurriedly helped him up.

"There's also a letter from the prince to the princess." After getting up, he took out a letterhead painted with fire paint from his wide sleeved robe and handed it to Zhaoyun.

After writing "Princess Zhaoyun personally enlightened" on his face, when he saw the familiar font, Zhaoyun's heart was like a heavy stone, and he was a little out of breath.

"Princess?"

It wasn't until Ming Cui on the side reminded him that Zhaoyun took the letterhead from his hand and hid it in his wide sleeves.

"I've delivered the things, so I'll take my leave! Princess, please stay! Ruda put another hand on his chest, bowed solemnly, and turned away.

Looking at the back of Luda striding away, Zhaoyun was still slightly stunned. It wasn't until she entered the back room that she came to her senses.

Gently open the carved lacquer box, and a unique hairpin comes into view.

Under a closer look, this hairpin is polished and carved from a piece of fine small leaf red sandalwood, and the wood grain is clear but fine and smooth. The hairpin is a phoenix flower carved from a white jade, and the stamen in the middle is even decorated with a small red bean.

Zhaoyun's gaze was glued to that bit of bright red and round, and Hao's teeth bit the corner of his lips.

"Xi Ci, if you want to travel far in the future, can you give me a red bean before you leave?"

"Why just this inconspicuous red bean?"

"Because this thing is the most lovesick!"

"I'm going to gather them up and thread them into bracelets with silver thread and carry them around my wrists."

The old dreams buried in the past vaguely floated in front of me with the voice of the pretty daughter echoing in my ears.

Red beans, this acacia red bean, why did he give it to her like this in this life?

Even human life is cheaper than grass mustard, not to mention the so-called lovesickness?

Holding on to this hairpin, Zhaoyun put this eye-catching red bean on it, picked it off with his fingernails, and threw it out of the window at will.

"Oops, what a hairpin! How beautiful this red bean is embedded in it, why did the princess pick it off! Ming Cui said hurriedly.

"It's an eyesore to watch, so don't do it!" Zhaoyun put the hairband back into the lacquer box, closed it with a click, and stuffed it into the drawer of the mirror table.

Mingcui had no choice but to shrug her shoulders, but she wondered why the princess was so angry.

Zhaoyun sat back down on the soft collapse, picked up the needle and pricked it into the embroidery bandage. Inadvertently caught a glimpse of the scarlet on the mandarin duck's eyes, and his heart was already like an ancient well, calm and waveless.

"Princess, Mama Wang is here!" Biluo approached to remind.

When Zhaoyun looked up, he saw Mama Wang, who was wearing a stone green crepe silk gown, a Jiang silk pleated skirt of the same color, and a red gold silk hairpin with Fushou flat lines obliquely inserted in her hair, and walked forward dignifiedly.

"The slave has saluted the princess!" After speaking, he leaned forward slightly and made a blessing.

"Mama, hurry up and lighten up!" Zhaoyun hurriedly got up and helped him, and instructed Bicui on the side, "Quickly move the stool and let Mama rest for a while." ”

"Thank you princess for your kindness, the slave maid is here for important business, so I won't sit down to drink tea." A hint of a smile appeared on Mama Wang's square face.

"What is the important reason for Mama to come?"

"The Queen Mother wants the princess to go to Changde after lunch?"

"This palace knows, thank you for this trip on a hot day!"

"Okay, the slave has already passed on the words of the queen mother, so she will retire first!" After speaking, he saluted Zhaoyun and turned to leave.

Seeing her back drifting away, Ming Cui on the side frowned and said worriedly: "The queen mother wants to trouble the princess again?" ”

"Not this time." Zhaoyun picked up the white porcelain ear cup that Mama Wang had never drunk before, and took a sip of the fragrant jasmine tea.

Because he knew that Changde would take a break for half an hour in the afternoon, after Zhaoyun finished lunch, he leaned on the beauty and looked at the Kyushu Atlas for a while, so he took Mingcui and Biluo to Changde Palace.

"Princess, the Queen Mother is still taking a nap, please wait in the main hall first." Mama Wang, who was waiting in the hall, saw the three of them coming, and stretched out her hand to stop them with a smile.

Seeing her like this, Zhaoyun secretly sneered in his heart.

Now that the time has passed, it is impossible for Changde not to wake up, but it may be a repeat of the old tricks. Think Liwei, she is very patient!

So he smiled at Mama Wang and said, "After walking like this, most of the lunch has been consumed, and I feel a little hungry and thirsty, so it is better for Mama to ask someone to bring some refreshments." ”

When Mama Wang heard this, the corners of her mouth on her square face twitched slightly uncontrollably, and she had to hurriedly send the palace maid to prepare refreshments.

After half a cup of tea, the refreshments were served by the palace maid.

Looking at the hibiscus cake in the crystal plate with golden color and shape and style like hibiscus flowers, Zhaoyun picked one up and put it in his mouth, and when he took a bite, he felt that it was soft and sweet, and the taste was very good.

"This pastry in Changde Palace is very good!" Zhaoyun finished eating a few more, and couldn't help but praise Mama Wang, who was waiting on the side.

"If the princess likes this hibiscus cake, why don't you bring a few more with the food box later?" Mama Wang said with a smirk, thinking that she would refuse for the sake of face.

Unexpectedly, Zhaoyun hurriedly smiled and answered: "This is the best, then there will be Mama Lao to order it!" ”

In the middle of his eyes, Zhaoyun squinted his phoenix eyes and said: "I heard that the osmanthus cake and chestnut cake in the Queen Mother's palace are also very good, why don't you ask Mama Wang to serve some more!" ”

Mama Wang secretly swallowed her saliva, so she had to nod her head and reluctantly order.

"Also, after eating this pastry, I feel a little thirsty, let's serve hot tea again!"

“……”

"Queen Mother, this Princess Zhaoyun is too unreasonable! One moment to eat pastries, the next to drink tea, the slave maid is unable to parry! In desperation, Mama Wang took the opportunity to leave the main hall and hurriedly went to ask the Empress Dowager Changde for instructions.

"It's been dry long enough, Wei is enough, forget it, help the mourning family out!" The Empress Dowager Changde, who was leaning on the dark red soft pillow, had no choice but to give in on her forehead.
