A few days later, Gufangyuan suddenly became lively.

In addition to the queen, Cui Cairen, Wen Meiren, and Xiao Liangdi, even Concubine Zhang often appears in Gufangyuan.

The most peculiar thing is that they all come on foot like queens, the difference is that they always carry an empty sedan chair into the garden.

The guards guarding the gate looked at each other.

"Boss, the harem ladies come in and out so frequently, do you want to inform the emperor!"

"It's a lot of things, the emperor has ordered, we just have to guard the door, and don't let the princess go out." The boss stood up straight and said.

"The boss is right, they are all harem girls, and we can't afford to offend them!"

"The emperor's will must be remembered, only at the door, not a single step into the garden, understand?" The boss told his subordinates uneasily.

And for most of the past half a month, the chief manager has been busy, and the palace maids of the ladies always come to him to repair the garden and so on.

After thinking about it for a while, the chief manager felt very strange, and thought that it was necessary to report this matter to the emperor.

The chief steward stood at the foot of the steps, and saw that Emperor Xuanyuan finally had free time, so he hurriedly stepped forward two steps and said: "Your Majesty, there is something that should not bother you, but it is really strange, so I dare not hide it." ”

"Say."

"First of all, Cui Cairen sent someone to say that the granite floor in the garden was broken and asked the lower officials to send someone to repair and fill it."

Emperor Xuanyuan lifted his eyelids and glanced at the chief manager, and the current meaning was: Such trivial matters are annoying, you can handle it yourself.

Seeing the emperor's displeased eyes, the chief manager hurriedly replied: "This is a small matter, and the lower official has already ordered someone to repair it, but it was only later ......."

The chief manager paused for a moment, and saw that Emperor Xuanyuan did not react, and waited for a while, but there was still no response, and then he continued to reply:

"It's just that later, Wen Meiren, Qingcairen, Xiao Liangdi, and even Concubine Zhang Shufei's palace all had the same problem, and they all asked the lower officials for a lot of various materials, and the lower officials felt that this matter could be big or small, so they came back to the emperor."

"Got it!"

The chief manager understood that if he could reply to these three words, it meant that the emperor himself would send someone to deal with it, so he retreated.

Xuanyuan Xuanling put down his fold, his eyelids didn't move, remembering that after the last time he teased Dongfang Bairan, Dongfang was angry, and he hadn't entered the palace for a long time.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly: "Xuan Dongfang Qiongyu will enter the palace immediately." ”

Then, a few hours later, Dongfang's lazy figure reluctantly appeared at the door of the main hall.

Xuanyuan Xuanling walked up to him and threw him a piece of paper, it turned out that when he was waiting for Dongfang just now, he drew all the things about the chief manager's return on the paper.

Yes, it's drawn.

Draw a circle around the portraits of talents, beauties, and concubines, and then the arrow points straight to the lonely garden in the center.

And the arrows are also marked with all kinds of materials that the ladies ask the chief manager for.

Dongfang opened it casually, and his expression gradually changed subtly, and he returned to his previous interest.

"This is so interesting, but why didn't my brother-in-law call the secret agent to investigate, maybe it was to trick me again!"

"You go, I'm at ease!" Xuanyuan Xuanling actually patted Dongfang on the shoulder, he rarely called himself "I" in front of Dongfang.

Because he understands that once he is called so, over time, it means that he has lost this best friend who has nothing to talk about.

"Are you afraid that they will be clumsy and scare the beauties inside!" Dongfang saw through Xuanyuan Xuanling's careful thinking at a glance.

"Don't worry, I look at the one in the garden, I'm very frightened, I'm a little worried that I'll be intimidated by her."

Dongfang didn't know if he was worried about himself, or if he was comforting Xuanyuan Xuanling.

So, after dinner, Dongfang chose a very special time, he estimated that this time should be the time for Princess "Qinglian" to take a bath, which is safer and will not be noticed by her.

So, Dongfang seized this opportunity, avoided the guards, and quietly climbed over the wall into the back garden.

As soon as you enter the back garden, the scene in front of you surprises the well-informed Dongfang.

The winding gravel path, the bamboo bridge water pavilion, the cloister, lead to the emerald green bamboo pavilion at the end, all kinds of chairs made of bamboo in the pavilion, several cases, ornaments, particularly novel, elegant.

Under the shade of greenery, there is a small circular square.

The ground floor of the small square is paved with a sunflower pattern made of various granite stones.

The most amazing thing is that around the two vegetable fields, water is automatically sprayed out, watering the plants in the field.

Dongfang suppressed his curiosity and sneaked into the princess's bedroom.

The bedroom was naturally empty, and it seemed that the princess had really gone to take a bath.

Dongfang secretly rejoiced, so he vigilantly looked around.

Dongfang first saw that the desk was full of scrolls, and couldn't help but open the largest of them.

"Tut, tsk!" Dongfang looked at the design of the princess, and was secretly amazed, and admired the princess even more in his heart.

He quickly rolled up the paintings, picked up the other two casually, and after a few quick glances, he also rolled them together, and when he walked to the door, he cared about it again!

He crept to the princess's bed again, touched it with his hand under the pillow, picked up a small brocade box, put it in his arms, and like a thief, quickly slipped away like oil on the soles of his feet.

Dongfang threw a few scrolls in front of Xuanyuan Xuanling's eyes, and said proudly: "Brother-in-law opened it and took a look, and he knew why your beauties all asked to repair the garden." ”

Xuanyuan Xuanling slowly unfolded the large picture scroll: at the beginning, his face was expressionless; Halfway through, the brow is lightly raised; When fully opened, the corners of the mouth are also fully opened.

The smile that could no longer be concealed bloomed on his face.

"Cow! Grounded by you, no one, no materials, you can still make such a grand courtyard landscape, you can't accept it! Dongfang said convincingly.

Xuanyuan Xuanling opened another slightly smaller picture scroll, and there were many villains painted on the scroll, each of which was posing with different moves.

He was secretly wondering, thinking, Dongfang suddenly threw another object over, he raised his hand, and gently caught it in the air, and saw that it was a small brocade box.

"This is what I took under the princess's pillow, it is estimated that it is her personal belongings, and I will give it to you to relieve the pain of lovesickness."

Dongfang is triumphant, waiting for Xuanyuan Xuanling's praise!

"Sick."

Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Xuanling replied coldly.

Dongfang consciously worked hard all night, and brought additional surprises to Xuanyuan Xuanling, but he didn't expect that not only did he not praise him, but what he was waiting for was two words:

"Sick."

Dongfang was indignant, rushed to Xuanyuan Xuanling, and opened his hand to snatch the small box.

Xuanyuan Xuanling swiped his right hand in the air, and after easily dodging, he put his hand on his back out of reach.

"For you, I am a thief for the first time; For your sake, I stole something from my daughter's house for the first time; Moreover, when I first passed through the garden, the crotch of my trousers was cut open by a bamboo fence, and my reputation was ruined because of you, and you said that I was sick. ”

Dongfang angrily pointed to his torn crotch.

However, Xuanyuan Xuanling was still expressionless, and continued to carefully study the villain on the painting.

Seeing him like this, Dongfang was even more angry, rushed forward and rolled up the scroll, hugged it in his arms and said, "Since you don't appreciate it, then I'll return these paintings." ”

"Go quickly!"

Dongfang originally thought that Xuanyuan Xuanling was going to forcibly hold him, but he didn't expect to hear a "hurry up".

After he let out a long sigh of sorrow, he understood that he had fallen for the old fox of Xuanyuan again.

Xuanyuan Xuanling never thought about it from beginning to end, if he wanted to keep these paintings, he originally planned to return them to Dongfang after reading them.

And Dongfang himself still volunteered to return it, of course, there was only a "go quickly"!

Dongfang took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll go back immediately, maybe the princess hasn't finished bathing yet!" ”

Dongfang was about to leave after speaking, and Xuanyuan Xuanling immediately blocked in front of him.

Dongfang looked at Xuanyuan Xuanling, couldn't help but smile and said, "I just slipped in while the princess was taking a bath......

"Shameless."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Xuanyuan Xuanling's scolding.

"Then I'll go, I won't go." Dongfang lifted his foot slightly, gesturing to leave.

"Put it down." Xuanyuan Xuanling raised his hand and snatched the picture scroll in Dongfang's arms.

Dongfang breathed a long sigh of relief, and finally pulled back a game, lying comfortably on the chair, and soon fell asleep.

Xuanyuan Sword Xuanling picked up the scroll and came to Fanghua Palace.

When Empress Lanxi saw the little figure on the painting, she smiled and unfolded the scroll on her case, which was exactly the same as the one brought by Xuanyuan Xuanling, so she said to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, the picture drawn on this picture is called the yoga introductory asana diagram."

"What is yoga?"

"Princess Qinglian said that yoga is a kind of body cultivation technique, which can improve the body posture and enhance the vitality of the body by adjusting breathing and posture training, so as to delay the aging of the body."

The queen slowly recalled the princess's explanation of yoga.

"That's all!" Xuanyuan Xuanling pointed to the little man on the painting.

"Yes, the paintings on this are: prayer pose, arm outstretching pose, forward bend pose, horseback riding pose, mountain pose, eight-body throwing pose, as well as cobra pose, magic chair these eight poses, are the simplest yoga introductory asanas."

Xuanyuan Xuanling saw that the queen was talking eloquently like a few treasures, so he unconsciously glanced at the queen's increasingly slender waist a few more times.

"How long has the queen been practicing?"

"Ahh The concubine ...... "When the queen saw that the emperor suddenly asked such a question, and saw him staring at her waist, she suddenly stammered a little shyly.

"The princess said that the concubines lack exercise and often sit for a long time, so practicing yoga can relax the muscles and reduce muscle soreness and weakness."

"Does it work?"

"Well, it's amazing, I've only been practicing for less than a month, and I feel a lot lighter, and my muscle soreness has been reduced a lot!"

"Also, according to the princess's instructions, I will walk more if I have nothing to do, supplemented by a light diet, and the effect will be better."

As soon as the queen mentioned the yoga effect and the "Qinglian" princess, she was greatly admired.

"Well, Empress Lao will put these scrolls back in Gufang Garden, the sooner the better."

Xuanyuan Xuanling turned around and left after speaking, and the queen asked behind him, "Your Majesty, how did you get these paintings?" ”

Xuanyuan Xuanling didn't look back, and his footsteps never stopped, he only said leisurely: "Stolen from the East." ”
