Chapter 17: New Friends

If this lake stone smashes into Xin'er, she will be bedridden at the lightest, and she may have to worry about her life. But now Li Wei said lightly that he just wanted to vent his anger, but he couldn't care about much. She used her strength to try to lift the stone above her head and smash it out.

The lake stone is really too heavy, Wei Qingyan is a woman, and she is pampered every day, and her ten fingers don't touch the spring water, where can she hold it? Seeing that she was out of balance, she still refused to let go. Hu Shi took Wei Qingyan and folded down from the mountain corridor.

"Ahh Xin'er only heard a shout from behind, and when she turned her head suddenly, Wei Qingyan had already turned over and fallen off the porch, and the lake stone also fell.

Xin'er flashed and successfully avoided the lake rocks, but her head and face were inevitably stained by the splashing water. Xin'er wiped her face, only to see that Wei Qingyan had fallen into the depths of the water, and was fluttering up and down at the moment, unable to even shout a word.

Looking at it like that, Wei Qingyan must be a person who can't water. Xin'er looked up and saw that there was no one else on the mountain corridor, so she knew that this lake stone that she had temporarily placed on the mountain corridor must have been thrown down by Wei Qingyan.

Xin'er was annoyed by Wei Qingyan in her heart, she embarrassed Xin'er several times, although she misunderstood the relationship between Mu Hanqing and Xin'er, her youngest daughter had a heart attack, which was understandable. But this time I almost hurt Xin'er's life, and I really couldn't bear her.

Xin'er wanted to be ruthless and let Wei Qingyan dry in the pool, but seeing that Wei Qingyan's hands and feet were entangled in aquatic plants, the fluttering slowed down, and if she didn't save her, she was afraid that her life would be endangered. Xin'er was angry with herself and gave herself a backhand slap: "No matter what, people's lives are at stake." After talking to herself, Xin'er plunged into the water one by one, approached Wei Qingyan in twos and threes, grabbed her by the back collar, used the hoe in her hand to pick off the aquatic weeds, and dragged Wei Qingyan ashore with great difficulty.

When he got to the shore, Wei Qingyan came to his senses for a while. She looked at Hong Xin'er, who was dressed in wet clothes on the side, and wanted to say thanks, but she didn't say anything, and struggled to get up and leave.

Xin'er wanted to help Wei Qingyan, but the girl didn't appreciate it, and threw down a sentence: "Don't touch me." I won't thank you, but I don't owe each other. ”

"What does it mean to not owe each other? When do I owe you? Hong Xin'er just rescued people from the pool, and when she heard the rescued person coming, how could she not be angry? She couldn't get angry, so she shook off such a sentence.

"You..." Wei Qingyan had already stood up, shaking his hands and wanting to push Xin'er again. But the person on the other side has just become his savior, Wei said lightly, it is not easy to start, and his hand is stretched out halfway, not before, not after.

Xin'er wanted to fight back, but a little palace maid dressed up ran over, and she didn't forget to shout: "Miss Wei, the fifth princess has been waiting for you for a long time, hurry up and go to her palace with me, and change this wet Luo skirt, so as not to suffer the cold." ”

This mountain corridor is close to the entrance of the imperial garden, and since there are male craftsmen working in the garden for several days, the emperor has already ordered that the women of the palace are strictly forbidden to walk here. Wei Qingyan is the daughter of the Wei family, not among them, her father Lord Wei is like this, plus this girl is chasing the wood brother, she has long been unable to care about anything else, so she has repeatedly entered and exited here, and no one is embarrassed. But who is a princess now?

Hong Xin'er raised her eyes curiously and looked at the entrance of the Imperial Garden. Daxing garden pays attention to the gourd to see the world, even if it is the entrance of the imperial garden, it is only a door hole without much carving and two ordinary vermilion door leaves. The backyards of court officials and wealthy people have moon gates, wooden frames, and even wood doors. At this time, at the entrance of the garden, there was a girl with a noble appearance, about the same age as Xin'er, with a goose-yellow silk skirt, full of pearls, if it wasn't far enough, Xin'er was afraid that she would be shaken and couldn't open her eyes.

It should be the fifth princess. Xin'er thought so, but stood in place, deliberately turning her face away, pretending not to notice where the fifth princess was. The situation in the palace is complicated, and the master's affairs are broken again, this princess can be here under the ban, even if she does not enter the imperial garden, it shows that this person's identity is not comparable to that of ordinary princesses, whether she wants people to know that she moved here, Xin'er can't guess. More is better than less, and pretending to be confused is sometimes better than being too shrewd.

Wei Qingyan didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly followed the little maid away. Before leaving, he deliberately shook his body beside Xin'er again, and then splashed the droplets on Xin'er's face.

Wei Qingyan came to the door, and the fifth princess didn't say much, took her hand and went back to Wuqi Palace.

The two entered the fifth princess's bedroom, and the fifth princess ordered the maid to bring Wei Qingyan a set of freshly washed Luo skirts. Wei Qingyan took the clothes and thanked them, and the five princesses took out all the maids. Wei Qingyan changed into clean clothes after going to the screen, and he no longer trembled.

"Let's drink some ginger tea to warm up. Don't get caught in the cold. The fifth princess pulled Wei Qingyan to sit at the red sandalwood table, and handed Wei Qingyan a gold-trimmed porcelain bowl. The ginger tea in the bowl is freshly boiled, and as soon as the five princesses entered the Wuqi Palace, they instructed the palace maid to do it, and when the palace maid went to find Luo Skirt, the tea was served, and it was still a little hot at the moment, just in the entrance.

"Fifth Princess Xie." Wei Qingyan took the bowl and poured the ginger tea into it in a small sip.

"Between you and me, there is no need to say thank you." The fifth princess saw that Wei Qingyan finished drinking, and said with a smile: "Just now you fell into the pool, I just went to the gate of the imperial garden to look for you, the person who saved you, but the soil master you mentioned to me?" ”

Wei Qingyan didn't know if the fifth princess had seen her throw the lake stone, her heart was a little tight, and she unconsciously held the porcelain bowl again: "Princess, have you seen anything else?" ”

"See, didn't you use the lake stone to smash the earth? I saw it all. The fifth princess poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip, as if talking about an ordinary thing, and said: "I know that you are annoyed that your brother Namu is fond of the landlord, so you have to calculate it against her." But this is not a glorious thing in the end, fortunately it didn't hit her, otherwise a human life, let your family background be noble, and you will not be guilty, in the end, it is to increase your sin for yourself, but you can't do this anymore. ”

Wei Qingyan has been friends with the fifth princess for many years, and the fifth princess likes the difference between her and the women in the palace. Although the fifth princess is loved by her royal brother, her status is much higher than that of ordinary princesses, but in the end, she is in the palace, and she will inevitably have to watch some deceit, and the concubines are very tired of hiding knives in their smiles.

Although Wei Qingyan is willful, he is a big opener, and any good and bad things are always on his face, and when he was a child, Wei Qingyan also inadvertently stung the poisonous bee for the fifth princess, so although the two have different statuses, they get along like sisters in private. The fifth princess is three months older than Wei Qingyan, and she regards Qingyan as her sister, and she has been like this for many years. Rao is Wei lightly said that he did something perverse, and the five princesses can also tolerate one or two.

"I also know it's inappropriate to smash people, but I just want Brother Mu." Wei said softly, as if there was a sobbing sound, and his little face twitched. She shook the arms of the fifth princess, looking unwilling: "Sister princess, I just want him!" ”

Seeing her like this, the fifth princess hid her face and laughed twice, and joked: "How can a girl's family be so shameless?" Rao is my great rejuvenation of the people's culture, and you must also be reserved. ”

"That..."Wei Qingyan pursed his lips and continued to shake it: "Then I just like him, I can be happy all day long just by looking at him, but how can I be reserved?" Brother Kemu didn't even want to say anything to me, but he quarreled with the soil girl all day long, and they repaired the garden together, and both of them had to stick their hands together. That day, the earth girl also grabbed Brother Mu's arm, and Brother Mu's face turned red. The two of them must have a personal relationship, if I want to take that dirt girl away, where is my place next to Brother Mu? ”

After hearing this, the fifth princess laughed again, and it was rare to see that she was a little out of shape. In the end, she covered her stomach and said, "Speak lightly, I know that you are the most unconcealable character, but sometimes the affairs of men and women are not as good as what you see in person." And you know that the Mu family has no intention of you, so why bother to pursue him everywhere? ”

"Sister Princess, you laugh at me again!" Wei Qingyan took the teapot, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a big sip: "Do I have any intention for him?" I also know that I owe a life to the earth girl today, and she came to save me regardless of her previous suspicions, and she is already my benefactor. But across Brother Mu, I still don't like her. ”

The fifth princess shook her head: "Speaking lightly, I advise you to open your mind earlier." ”

"What's the trick?"

The fifth princess sighed: "You and my sisters get along, you are different from me, you don't have the burden of family and country to bear, marriage can be done according to your own will, Lord Wei is not a tyrannical person, I want to see you get a good marriage." There is nothing wrong with you liking the wood master, but you must know that if a man does not have you in his heart, no matter how you twist it, his heart is not in you. Even if we become husband and wife in the future, it is not easy to raise the case and raise my eyebrows, and it is even more difficult for me to be happy. You see my imperial brother's harem concubines, except for the few on the tip of his heart, the others are just coping, and in the end, these women are just old and dead in the palace. Listen to me, there are many good men in the world, and you are so beautiful, why don't you find someone who is dedicated to you? Let's make peace with the lord of the land, this woman is a rare and sincere person. It is rumored that she has the ability not to let her eyebrows, and after I get married in the future, you will have a sincere sister, otherwise you have this temperament, I will really worry for you. ”

"But I..." Wei Qingyan wanted to say more, but was interrupted by the fifth princess: "But what? I made sweet wine the day before yesterday, and I can invite her to drink it with me. If you agree, I will send someone to call the lord of the land later, and you two will make peace in my palace. ”

Wei Qingyan wanted to argue again, but after all, she had read some books, and she thought about what the fifth princess said, and every word was reasonable. Although she was not good at letting go of Mu Hanqing immediately, the fifth princess persuaded her more than once, and it was the fifth princess who took the initiative to let her make peace with the Tujia girl, so she had to agree: "But it depends on the arrangement of the princess's sister." ”

The fifth princess was very relieved, and called the palace maid to pass the word, let the soil master come to the palace for a gathering, and gave the palace maid the waist card of Wuqi Palace.

When the palace maid found Xin'er, Xin'er was still secretly twisting her freshly soaked clothes in the back hall. There is no way, she is the only woman in this garden, she doesn't know the people in the harem, she doesn't even have a familiar palace maid, there is nowhere to borrow clean clothes, and it is not easy to change the clothes worn by those men, so she has to wring out the water and pour a few bowls of hot water. As for whether she was dyed with the wind and cold, she didn't dare to think about it.

"The head of the soil, the fifth princess sent you to get together in the palace, you can go with me quickly, and you can drink ginger soup to warm your body." The palace maid saw Xin'er's embarrassed appearance and felt pity. She didn't expect that this Jiupin master would reach such an embarrassing situation, but it was not even as good as their group of high-class palace maids.

"Sister, the fifth princess passed me on?" Xin'er got up when she heard the sound and pointed to herself in confusion.

"Exactly! Come with me. ”

Xin'er has heard people talk about it, the five sisters who love him the most today, are these five princesses? It can't be the one who just stood outside the garden gate, right? Isn't she friendly with Wei Qingyan? Why will it be to pass me on?

"The landlord is the landlord, the landlord is the landlord."

The two shouts made Hong Xin'er come back to her senses, and she hurriedly smiled and said, "Sister Xie." But I'm like this, will it be a little disrespectful to see Her Royal Highness the Princess? ”

"You can rest assured that the fifth princess is a kind person in the palace, and she will only give you new clothes and ginger tea, and it will not be difficult for you. Come with me. ”

"Then please ask my sister to lead the way."
