In the days that followed, I maintained the joy of the day I recognized Wen Zhao.

The previous dynasty seemed to be a little turbulent, and the time that Hou Ye spent in the mansion was very small, and the time to come to this small courtyard to gossip and joke with me became more and more rare. Exempt from the daily pastime for me, Xunyue thought that I would be depressed and uncomfortable, but seeing that I was full of energy every day and my smile did not fade, I was finally able to relax and recuperate carefully.

When the Hou Ye saw that I was safe, he gradually withdrew most of the soldiers guarding the courtyard. In addition to the daily supply of food, there is only the rare silk thread sent in by the embroidery room at the running price, for me to lie on the desk every day and fiddle with it.

On this day, my injuries were basically healed. He changed into a long jacket of sprinkling flowers and peach satin woven with a hundred branches and plums that Hou Ye appreciated, and went to Yiyunzhai where Hou Ye lived with the turbid moon with the stove. Because it was early in the morning, the road was refreshing and uninhabited, and when I arrived at the door of Yiyunzhai, I saw a mermaid coming out, each carrying an empty basin and empty basket in his hand.

"Ah, what's going on today, it's my rudeness!" Hou Ye saw me in the house from afar, and rubbed his hands together to greet me with a smile, "It's a coincidence that you came, it's good that today is the beginning of winter, and the courtyards in the house have provided charcoal fires, so it can be considered warmer." In the future, I don't have to go to your yard every day to avoid the cold, and you can go to my study to relax. ”

"Back girl, the charcoal fire in our courtyard was rewarded by Master Hou a month in advance according to the exception." Seeing that I was puzzled, Xunyue explained with a smile, "Our Hou Ye has always been simple, and the mansion is not in the beginning of winter, and the courtyards are cut off from charcoal fire. It's hard for him to be seventy years old, and he is so cold that he goes straight to our yard every day! ”

"You girl, you're not verbose!" Hou Ye was amused by the turbidity moon and laughed more and more, took the fur hat handed by the next person and put it on, "On weekdays, you just rap your master like this, and it will be annoying for me to change." No wonder you have to go out to look for me when it's so cold today, dare you hide from your long tongue! ”

"Master Hou said that he laughed, Turbidity Moon is just making me happy." I was full of gratitude, "If it weren't for the fact that I happened to see a charcoal pot in Yiyun Zhai today, I would not have known your good intentions." ”

"Where can it be called what kind of intention. Daxin is located in the north, and it is very cold in winter, and the climate is not more pleasant than that of the southern desert. Hou Ye put on court clothes and said, "Now you can recuperate with peace of mind, and you can see that you can heal before the winter, so you don't have to suffer too much." ”

"Isn't this also the result of your careful care......" I looked at the crane cloud pattern on Hou Ye's robe, and couldn't help frowning slightly, "What time is it, Hou Ye is going to go to court?" ”

"Yes, I wanted to send someone to tell you, but I was so happy to see you come and forgot about it," the Hou Ye said with a smile, "Today's winter, the emperor held a winter banquet in the palace, before this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will first make an east banquet to invite the ministers, everything is complicated, and I have to help the prince to take care of one or two." ”

"I see..."I was secretly a little disappointed, and then said with a smile, "The banquet outside is outside, and I also want to dedicate it to the Hou Ye." Dumplings are made in the courtyard tonight, and I ask Master Hou to come back early. ”

Hou Ye was wearing a crown in the mirror, and when he heard my words, he couldn't help but turn his head, his eyes widened and he said in surprise: "Making dumplings... You have such an interest, in this case, when I come back from the palace tonight, I will not go to the prince's mansion, let's eat dumplings together, and spend this winter quietly. ”

"Everything is arranged by the Hou Ye." I was blessed and said, "Since the Hou Ye is willing to appreciate his face, I will ask Xunyue to go to the dining room to decorate." ”

Hou Ye stroked his palm and smiled, which seemed to be very useful. After discussing for a while, I watched the Hou Ye leave the house and went back to the small courtyard with the turbid moon.

The servants got the news in advance, and removed the incense burner in the room early, and put together two long tables for us to use. Turbidity Moon came back from the dining room, and behind her was a slippery cook. We carry beef, mutton, pork hind legs, shrimp, crab, mackerel, cuttlefish, sea sausages, mushrooms, bell peppers, leeks, cabbage, eggplant, radish, zucchini, wild celery and other ingredients. The same is stacked on the case, and it is dazzling, and there is no way to start.

"It's just Baotun dumplings, is this to bring out the dinner of the entire Hou Mansion......

"Is the girl going to regret it?" Seeing that my jaw dropped when I was shocked, Xunyue couldn't straighten up with a smile, "The words were made by you, but the meaning of the Hou Ye is that you don't want to be simple, today, I have to taste all kinds of dumplings." You don't have to be afraid, these people will stay for you to lay down, if you are tired, the slave will move a couch for you, you can lie on the side, there is no shortage of manpower, you can rest assured to give us a flag command! ”

The cook under the corridor listened to Xunyue's joke, and gradually became less restrained. Everyone divided their labor, then rolled up their sleeves and got busy.

Only then did I find out that this dumpling banquet was initiated by me, but it was not my turn to interfere at all. It's rare for so many people in my small courtyard, and everyone is busy and happy. Although my injuries have healed, Turbidity Moon still refuses me to work, lest I accidentally have any accidents. But at noon, she urged me to go into the warm pavilion to rest, and I followed the chef with half a bowl of peeled shrimp, and tiptoed in.

"Okay, it turned out to be using me as a disguise," I swallowed my tea and pointed to the shrimp in Xunyue's hand, "It's just that you want to be idle-"

"-The girl was tired after standing for a long time," Xunyue couldn't help but say, stuffing two huge and fat shrimp into my mouth, raising her voice to cover my voice, "There are the best cooks in the Hou Mansion outside, so you can rest in peace for a while......"

I don't know how this shrimp is cooked, it is so tender and delicious. I couldn't help but feel angry for a while, so I could only puff out my cheeks, chew hard in my mouth and glared at Turbidity.

"Girl, in fact, the slave has been saying something to you these days." Xunyue put down the empty bowl and turned to stand behind me and beat my shoulder, "Since the last time we were assassinated in the garden, you seem to have been a little different these days, can you tell the slave what happened?" ”

I was slightly surprised, I didn't expect Xunyue to ask such a thing, and I didn't know how to answer for a while, so I had to rinse my tea, and said for a long time: "You ghost girl, what are you thinking in your head, but tell me, what's different about me?" ”

"The slave and maid can't say it well..."Xunyue hesitated, and the strength of her hand eased. I always feel that these days you are not as preoccupied as before, and you always seem to have made up your mind and waited for the opportunity to do something. As for what it is, the slave doesn't know... Also, recently, your attitude towards Hou Ye has become more and more intimate, although you were also enthusiastic and grateful before, but you are far from being as unrestrained as you are now...... Girl, you tell the slave maid, but the slave and maid are not serving well, are you ready to leave the Hou Mansion? ”

When I turned around, I saw that the eyes of the cloudy moon looking down at me were already filled with tears.

I was shocked and panicked, and quickly took her hand and sat down beside me, gently stroking her back and said, "Let you be more attentive on weekdays, is this your own guess, or where did you hear nonsense...?" You treat me sincerely, and my injuries are not healed, so why will I leave the house in three moments? ”

"Is it..."Turbidity's jaw trembled, and she couldn't hold back her tears any longer, and she sobbed and pulled out a tightly wrapped handkerchief from her bosom and put it in my hand, "Then you tell the slave maid, what is this?" ”

I was confused, and there was some mechanical unfolding of the veil in my hands. As far as the eye could see, the hairs on his body suddenly rose like an ice bucket: "Turbid Moon!" How are you-"

Xunyue sobbed, trembling and slowly unfolding the note under the golden dart in the handkerchief, and put the side with the words "Lifu is dangerous, leave quickly" on the table facing me.
