On the sixth day of the eighth month, the day of the Birthday Festival. *With* Dream *Small* Say .lā

On this day, the emperor dropped out of the dynasty on the first day, the civil and military officials, the nobles of the clan and their families all entered the palace to congratulate, and the streets at the gate of the palace were even more congested than the morning court on weekdays.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, the carriage of Shangshu Mansion stopped at the gate of the palace.

The red sun dawned, and the sky was bright.

After everyone got out of the carriage, He and other female dependents were led to Fengluan Palace by the palace people.

In Fengluan Palace, the fat powder is fragrant, the clothes are fragrant, and there are already many women, all of whom are wearing big makeup according to their grades, and at a glance, the status is clear at a glance.

There are several ice basins in the main hall, the temperature is just right, and wisps of ambergris incense rise from the cloisonné enamel incense burner in the corner, spreading in the hall. The marble floor beneath his feet was like a mirror, reflecting a vague figure.

On the phoenix seat at the top, the queen is dressed in a gorgeous Zhai robe, with a jade leather belt around her waist, and a crown of nine dragons and four phoenixes on her head, which is jeweled and luxurious.

As soon as He and Duanmu Fei entered the main hall, these women all looked at the two of them, and the hall was quiet, and they talked to everyone again.

The grandfather and grandson stepped forward on the marble ground without hurry, and respectfully bowed to the queen: "See the queen's mother." ”

The queen glanced at He Shi lightly, casually said "no courtesy", greeted him lukewarmly, and sent the two away.

A palace maid led the He family to the side to take a seat, but the other palace maid curtsied at Duanmu Fei and said, "Fourth girl Duanmu, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, please come over and speak." ”

In front of everyone's eyes, the He family naturally did not feel embarrassed, and smiled kindly and let Duanmu Fei play by himself.

So, in the eyes of everyone's surprise, Duanmu came to Wuyang's side with a smile, and was beckoned by Wuyang to sit down beside her.

The two little girls paid no attention to the scrutinizing gazes of the others, and whispered to themselves.

"Fourth girl Duanmu," Wuyang deliberately said in a mocking tone, "I heard that your mansion is a bit 'lively' these days, and this palace still thinks that you will not be able to eat and sleep these days......"

Most of the things in the palace can't be hidden, the fourth princess Hanxing begged the concubine to let Duanmu Qi enter the palace on the day of the Wanshou Festival, many people have already heard about it, for Wuyang, while watching the excitement, she also made up her mind, if the Duanmu family really didn't let Duanmu come this time, she would invite people in her own name.

Duanmu scarlet for a moment, smiled understandingly, winked at Wuyang and said playfully: "Sister Princess, the people take food as the sky, why can't they treat themselves badly, right?" ”

Wuyang looked at Duanmu Fei's little face, the smile on his lips deepened, and said, "No wonder Bengong looks at you like ...... Rounded up. ”

As he spoke, Wuyang suddenly had some itchy hands, and he really wanted to pinch Duanmu's fair and lovely cheeks.

"Of course! When I was still growing! Duanmu Fei nodded as a matter of course.

In the past, the decoction was continuous, and I always had to avoid it, and I couldn't eat it or taste it...... Finally, now that she can eat everything, she won't be wronged by herself.

The two little girls were smiling and their eyebrows were dancing, and even if they couldn't hear what they were saying, they could feel that they were talking quite well.

The queen on the phoenix seat naturally took this scene into her eyes, first frowned slightly, and then relaxed her eyebrows again, her eyes were soft and loving.

It's been almost half a year since Chu Qing resigned, and her daughter hasn't paid attention to other girls, and she is often depressed alone, so she can talk a few words with this Duanmufei.

This is also a rare fate.

While thinking, the queen elegantly picked up the pastel teacup on the side, and only then put it to her mouth, she heard a slightly sharp laughter and noise from outside the hall, which caused everyone in the hall to follow the sound to look outside the hall.

I saw four or five three- and four-grade women and a few young girls surrounding a lady who came to the outside of the hall, talking and laughing.

In an instant, the atmosphere in the hall was a little strange, and many women were talking to each other, with a faint look of mockery between their eyebrows and eyes.

Duanmu Fei also looked over, and after a faint glance, he withdrew his gaze, but saw that Wuyang's face was sinking like water, and he looked at the girl wearing a water-green dress on the right hand side of Mrs. Nabo in a daze.

It was the Yang Wu girl from the Qingyuan Bo Mansion that they had seen in Luhua Pavilion a few days ago.

The fifteen-year-old girl is obviously carefully dressed today, her eyebrows are like distant daisies, her lips are like petals, the black and dense green silk is curled with a complicated peony bun, and she inserts a tendril, wing, three-tailed, emerald and single drop of tassel phoenix hairpin, which makes the palm-sized pure little face radiant.

Whoever sees it has to praise the beauty embryo.

"Shameless!" Wuyang muttered to himself in a voice as low as a mosquito.

Duanmu was stunned, and suddenly remembered what happened in Luhua Pavilion that day, and that day she vaguely felt that there seemed to be a turbulent dark tide between Wuyang and Yang Wufei, and they both had a strong hostility towards each other......

Could it be ......

Duanmu's scarlet eyes flashed, and he suddenly understood.

Today, he has always boasted of being a romantic and talented man, not only three thousand beauties in the harem, but also during the three trips to the south of the Yangtze River, those romantic anecdotes have not been interrupted, and there are even storytellers in the market who have made up a joke about the emperor's private interview.

Over the years, many people have sent beauties to the emperor as they like, and the Yang family can send a fallen Jieyu into the palace, and they can send another Yang Wu girl.

However, this kind of topic can't be said by a little girl, Duanmufei can only pretend not to know, twist up a piece of sesame soufflé roll and say: "Sister princess, this soufflé roll tastes so good, sweet and soft, just right." ”

Wuyang glanced at Duanmu Fei, and that look seemed to say, how do you know how to eat!

Her right hand had already subconsciously picked up a soufflé roll and put it in her lips, her eyes lit up.

These people had already walked up to the queen and saluted respectfully, although the queen looked down on the Yang family in her heart, she talked to them in all directions, and there was no trace of abnormality.

The more the queen was like this, the more upset Wuyang became, and even the original crispy soufflé rolls seemed to have become eclipsed, and turned to Duanmu Fei and said, "Let's go out for a walk." ”

Duanmu Fei was as good as a stream, and the two walked to the queen, and Wuyang said directly: "Queen Mother, Erchen wants to go to the imperial garden with the fourth girl of Duanmu." ”

The queen has always been responsive to her daughter's needs, and she responded with a smile, and asked other girls not to be restrained, they could go to the Imperial Garden for a walk, and then go to Changyin Pavilion to listen to the play after a while.

These young girls were also in a panic, and left Fengluan Palace with Wuyang and Duanmu Fei in twos and threes, and the main hall was a little empty.

It was not yet dawn when the sun was rising in the east, the air was fresh, and the chirping of sparrows came with the wind from time to time.

The girls talked and laughed and walked through the carved railings and verandahs, and soon came to the Imperial Garden.

At this time, I heard a voice as delicate as a nightingale sounding with a smile: "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, Her Royal Highness the second princess, it's rare that there are so many people today, why don't we play hide and seek together!" Between the words, Miss Yang took two steps forward and proposed to the two princesses.

The second princess is at the age of playfulness, and she is moved, but Wuyang doesn't bother to be with her at all, and said unceremoniously: "You guys are free, this palace wants to walk around." ”

She didn't care about the stiff atmosphere around her, so she walked directly towards the northwest of the garden with Duanmu Fei, leaving a series of staring eyes.

The Imperial Garden in August is like another world than the beginning of March, the air is filled with a rich cinnamon fragrance, cinnamon is like fire, silver cinnamon is like snow, gold cinnamon is like gold, flowers are full of branches, and the fragrance is overflowing.

When the breeze blows, the osmanthus flowers on the branches fall down one after another, as if a rain of flowers.

The two of them enjoyed the flowers, played with the grass, blew the wind, and walked in the garden for half a circle, and saw that not far away under a tall and dense silver laurel tree, seven or eight girls were playing hide and seek together, one of them walked around blindfolded, and the other girls were carefully hiding, and the girls laughed like silver bells one after another.

Wuyang didn't plan to join, so he went to a pavilion by the lake with Duanmu Fei to sit and feed the fish at will.

The fish food was sprinkled into the water, and at once a large number of red carp swam with their tails, like a huge red flower blooming underwater.

"Meow!"

Suddenly, a round orange shadow burst out from the hosta bush on the side, which frightened a girl and exclaimed in a low voice, and then the blindfolded girl in pink strode forward, grabbed the other party's arm, and said triumphantly: "I caught you!" ”

As she spoke, the girl in pink ripped off the blindfolded brocade on her face, and handed it to the other party with a smile, "Miss Yang Wu, it's your turn to be a 'ghost'." ”

Miss Yang smiled generously: "Miss Lu, then you have to hide, don't be caught by me." ”

The orange cat watched the two of them "meow" again, swished and ran away, and then saw a blue-clothed palace maid coming in a panic, and saluted: "Didn't scare the two girls?" ”

"Out of the way." Miss Yang Wu smiled at the palace maid, and the girl in pink also smiled, "I have heard that there are many raccoon slaves in the palace, it seems that the rumors are not false." ”

The so-called raccoon slaves are cats, and there are many cats in the palace, some of which are raised by concubines, and some are raised by the imperial dining room to prevent mice.

The blue-clothed palace maid bent her knees again and blessed, and chased after the orange cat.

After another little palace maid helped Yang Wu girl blindfold her eyes with a brocade pa, the game of hide began again.

The other girls quickly scattered in all directions, hiding behind the silver laurel trees, some holding their breath, and some deliberately making some noises to lure Yang Wu girl over.

The crisp laughter of the young girls spread like silver bells to every corner of the imperial garden, like the fragrance of flowers, which is fascinating.

Suddenly, I saw three or four men hugging a man in a bright yellow brocade robe and walking out from behind a few hosta flowers in front of him.

None other than the emperor.
