Nangong Nianxi carefully looked at the two grandparents and grandchildren in front of him. The old general Sima Nan, the god of war in Haoyue, has three sons, all of whom are capable of literature and martial arts, and have followed Sima Nan since he was a child, and his military achievements are impressive.

The entire continent is divided into three large countries. At that time, the neighboring countries launched a war on the Haoyue border, and the three sons of the old general were killed one by one, and the two younger sons died on the battlefield before they could get married, and only the eldest son left a son and a daughter.

The grandson Sima Zhongming is also the son who inherits his father's business and guards the frontier. There is only the youngest granddaughter Sima Qingqing left in the family, and the old general loves her very much.

The emperor remembered the loyalty of his Sima family and allowed Sima Nan to resign as a general and enjoy his family at home.

Nangong Nianxi sighed in his heart, and suddenly remembered a poem "Liangzhou Ci" by the Tang Dynasty poet Wang Han

"Grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass, if you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately.

Drunk and lying on the battlefield, how many people came back to fight in ancient times? ”

Looking at Sima Nan, his temples are white and his skin is dark, which is the result of perennial exposure to the sun. With two sword eyebrows, bright eyes, and a loud voice, he looks like an upright and loyal person.

Nangong Nianxi looked at Sima Qingqing carefully, and saw that she was wearing a pink dress today, with white plum blossoms embroidered on the skirt. A white brocade belt was tied around his waist, covered with a milky cotton shoulder, and embroidered with fox fur on the side.

There was only a plum hairpin under the jet-black hair. A string of beads adorned with tassels under the hairpin. Willow leaves bent eyebrows cherry mouth, on the whole, is a kind of woman who shows off her wisdom on the outside, soft on the outside and strong on the inside. It gives a warm, intimate feeling.

Nangong Nianxi saw that Sima Qingqing was also looking at him, so he immediately withdrew his gaze, Sima Qingqing smiled generously and said: "Nine Princes, lend me your sister and go out for a walk with me, okay, you talk to grandpa, and I will return Sister Nianxi to you later?" ”

Ming Haoxuan turned around and looked at Nangong Nianxi, and when he saw that Nangong Nianxi had no opinion, he said, "That, that's okay!" Sister Qingqing should send her sister back quickly! ”

Sima Qingqing smiled and said, "I know! You can rest assured! ”

After speaking, he enthusiastically pulled Nangong Nianxi and slowly walked out of the hall.

The area of the general's mansion is very large and wide, come out of the front hall to the back, walk through the corridor is a small pavilion, behind is a large garden, the people brought soft cushions, the two sat in the pavilion and watched the warm sun sprinkle in, very warm.

Sima Qingqing was the first to speak: "Sister Nianxi, I have inquired about you, you are fourteen years this year, and I am one year older than you, so please allow me to call you that?" ”

Nangong Nian didn't know what she wanted to say to herself, so she couldn't speak, and when she heard her so polite, she replied: "Sister Qingqing! Just ask me to remember the past, and you're welcome. ”

"Alright! Remembering the past! You must wonder why I brought you here, to be honest, grandpa held a plum blossom banquet in my name this time, all for me. ”

Nangong Nianxi raised his eyebrows, raised his eyes and looked at Sima Qingqing, feeling puzzled.

Sima Qingqing continued: "Grandpa is almost sixty years old this year, and his physical condition is not very good, all of which are the problems left by the previous march and war, and he is afraid that he has three longs and two shorts, and no one will take care of me, so he wants to use this plum blossom banquet to let me meet a few more friends." If there is anything in the future, we can take care of each other. ”

Nangong Nianxi understood that she was sending a kind invitation and intended to make friends with her. Nangong Nianxi said: "Why did you invite so many people to come, but you came to find yourself." ”

Sima Qingqing saw Nangong Nianxi bowing his head and was silent, and explained: "Actually, I have heard some things about you these days, and I admire your courage very much, smart and witty. But my grandfather protected me too well and didn't let me go into battle to kill the enemy like my brother. So I can only learn some piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, something that only girls can do. That's why I like your personality so much that I really want to make friends with you. ”

Nangong Nianxi said: "She seems to be an easy-going person, unlike Liu Qianqian, who loves to play tricks, looking at the old general's open-mindedness, she can't teach her only granddaughter!" ”

Thinking of this, he nodded slightly and said, "Sister Qingqing!" It's really nice to meet you!. ”

"Yo! Who is this, who is thinking about climbing high branches all day long, living in the Ninth Brother's Mansion, not to mention, still fighting the idea of the General's Mansion. ”

Nangong Nianxi frowned when he heard this, this voice will not be forgotten wherever he goes, bitter and mean, Sima Qingqing took the lead in getting up, and Nangong Nianxi also followed Shi Li and said: "I've seen Princess Ziling!" ”

Ziling glanced at Nangong Nianxi with contemptuous eyes, and then changed another smile to Sima Qingqing and said, "Qingqing! Today you are the protagonist of the banquet, and private banquets do not need so many etiquette. I just want some people to know what etiquette is, and never forget who you are. ”

Nangong Nianxin said: "This princess is aimed at herself everywhere, and she must be more or less bewitched by others, otherwise why can't she get along with herself?" ”

As soon as Sima Qingqing heard that the two of them had a very strong taste, he said, "Princess! You haven't met your grandfather yet, have you? I'll take you to see grandpa! ”

Ming Ziling listened and nodded: "En! The atmosphere was ruined by someone just now, and Qingqing stayed away from her in the future. Then he glanced back at Nangong Nianxi with disdain.

"No matter how good-looking you are, a pheasant is a pheasant, and you will never become a phoenix! Hum~! After saying that, he walked away with a high spirit.

Sima Qingqing comforted Nangong Nianxi with an apologetic look, and Nangong Nianxi also knew that she was relieving herself, so she gave her a calm look slightly. Sima Qingqing and the princess disappeared from their field of vision.

Xiaoyu and Shi Yu followed Su Xiang to the next room to rest, Ming Haoxuan also chatted with the old general in the front hall, but he didn't expect a fool to fall into the eyes of the old general, the two were like friends who hadn't seen each other for many years, talking and laughing, I don't know what to talk about with a fool.

Nangong was bored, so he got up and walked slowly towards the garden along the gazebo!

In the winter season, except in the Royal Gardens, it is estimated that there are few fresh flowers to see. But a burst of fragrance hit, and Nangong Nianxi followed the fragrance and looked at a large field of camellias, competing to bloom.

Nangong Nianxi walked a few steps closely, looked around, and just saw a few young ladies talking and laughing here, why did they disappear after a while? What a waste of camellia in this garden.

Nangong Nianxi walked to the camellia and saw it, looking at the red, pink, and white camellias, he felt that the air was suddenly fresh.

Nangong Nianxi squatted down, put his nose next to a white camellia, closed his eyes and sniffed hard! It smells so good!

From a distance, a person and a camellia are like elves, white camellias, beauties dressed in white fox fur, the world seems to be suddenly still, the picture is so gentle and sweet.

"I like this flower so much, it's better to pick it off and wear it on your head!" A flirtatious male voice came from behind Nangong Nianxi.

Nangong Nianxi frowned when he heard this: "Who is this, so bad for the scenery, and so uncaring for flowers and plants." "I just wanted to stop it, but unfortunately I was a step too late, and I saw that the man had already plucked the camellia with his hand."

Nangong Nianxi glared at him angrily and said, "Who are you?" What a pity to pick such a beautiful flower! ”

I saw the man with oily hair and a pink face, and said with a hippie smile: "Flowers with beauty, what's the pity." ”

Nangong Nianxi looked at his frivolous demeanor, it must be a playboy of which family, he didn't want to entangle with him, and said: "Boring~!" "Turn around and go.

"Don't go! Miss Nangong! Let's talk about the loss-making young master! After speaking, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Nangong Nianxi's white fox Qiu.

Nangong Nianxi held the silver needle he was carrying in his hand, and just as he wanted to be angry, he heard a sonorous shout: "Whoever dares to be presumptuous in the General's Mansion, I will let him crawl and roll out of the General's Mansion." ”
