The moon is deep, and the North Champs is still cold and lonely.

Since the last time I met Shen Mushi at the foot of the cloister, we haven't seen him again.

Not only Shen Mushi, but even Concubine Xian, the queen, Xiaoshuang and all other idle people have never set foot in the North Champs, as if the people in this palace have forgotten her.

No one bothered him, the days passed calmly and indifferently, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

They seldom stay in the Champs, and it is too cold inside to be as warm as outside.

Therefore, when Shen Mushi stepped into the hall, he only smelled the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, and did not see a beautiful person.

He deliberately chose the time when she was not there.

Just as Yanxi played, the main hall of the North Champs was unusually cold, and the side hall and inner room could not shine on the sun, and there were several damp and moldy places.

Originally, this North Champs was used as a place to escape the heat in summer, and it was not suitable for people to live in winter, and she lived here for two months, and she never called a word of bitterness, but made him in a dilemma.

He didn't let Yan Xi prepare a warm niche, just to force her to move out of the North Champs, as long as she was willing to bow to him and admit her mistake, even if she was perfunctory and casually expressed her attitude, he immediately ordered someone to move her into the Liuyun Palace, and there was no other word.

But now that he is about to enter the wax moon, Lu Shuangshuang still has no intention of giving in to him.

The temperature in Chu Wei is low and cold in the middle of winter, and as soon as Shangjing arrives in the wax moon, goose feathers and heavy snow fly all over the sky, and the two are born in Shangjing and grow up in Shangjing, so they naturally know it.

Shen Mu was a little bored, and her temper was almost consumed by her, so she didn't let go.

He wanted to see how long she could last.

There are countless beauties sent to the East Palace in the past, which one is not gentle and delicate, sensible and intelligent.

Only Lu Shuangshuang, looking delicate, couldn't pull back the nine cows when his temper came up.

At a glance from a distance in the cloister that day, I found that she was much thinner, and her goose egg face, which was as plump as a baby, had been thinned into a pointed chin, and her palm-sized face was embedded with a pair of big eyes, which made her eyes even clearer.

She didn't speak, her eyes were full of disappointment and disappointment, like a complaint to complain, which made him feel distressed.

Before leaving, he couldn't hold back, turned around and glanced, he clearly saw that her eyes were dark, pretending to be a little lost, she never made a sound, not even a smile.

If she shouted, he wouldn't leave.

Why didn't she shout?

Shen Mushi's fingertips stroked the cold carved peony silver grate that was placed on the dresser, and his eyes were full of tenderness.

Gently pull out a green strand on top, it was her hair.

He clenched it tightly in his hand and was reluctant to let go.

As soon as Yan Xi came in, she saw this scene, the prince, who was usually dignified and solemn, was standing there pitifully like an abandoned child, revealing loneliness and fragility all over his body.........

is different from Shen Mushi's sad spring and autumn in the North Champs, both of them are busy in the women's room of the Sizhen Bureau.

She was embroidering a dark green purse.

First embroidered a bunch of chrysanthemums with gold thread, the wind moved the chrysanthemum petals with the branches, extremely elegant, and then began to play with light green silk threads. Red and yellow, the color is pleasing to the eye.

"Niangniang's embroidery skills are really good. Is this a birthday gift for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”

Jian Sizhen saw that the shape of the double-embroidered purse was not as fancy as the purse used by women, it was square, and the color was more like that used by men, so she asked more.

After getting along in the past few days, the female officials in the women's room know that the princess has an easy-going temperament, although she doesn't talk much on weekdays, she treats them as palace maids, but she is kind and angry.

"Birthday?"

Both were dumbfounded.

She didn't know what day Shen Mushi's birthday was.

This purse is actually embroidered as a small gift for my father.

"Yes, on the sixteenth day of the lunar month, the six rounds are all busy preparing."

Jian Sizhen saw that the crown princess was at a loss, and remembered the rumors that the crown prince and the crown princess were not on good terms, and secretly screamed in her heart, and hurriedly said some good things to resolve the embarrassment:

"I think His Royal Highness was afraid that he would be tired of Niangniang, so he didn't let you be busy."

Is it the sixteenth of the lunar month? Isn't that next month?

It turned out that the whole palace was preparing for his birthday, but she was the only one who was kept in the dark........

She is the crown princess, and such a big thing is actually hidden from her, and even Yanxi and Jing'er have not revealed half of the news.

Is he so disgusted with himself............

However, when you think about it, it is understandable.

Last time the weather turned cold, she asked Yanxi to go to the Internal Affairs Office to prepare some warm niches and quilts, and after going for most of the day, Yanxi finally came back empty-handed.

She asked Yan Xi, who was hesitant, only saying that there was no warm niche or smoker in the North Champs, and there was no duvet in the case......

She knew her situation at that time, and she had the title of crown princess, but she couldn't even get a quilt.

She is the emperor's decree to marry, and there is the Lu family behind her, no one in the East Palace dares to deduct her share like this, unless it is Shen Mushi's will, these minions dare to risk losing their heads to belittle her.

Therefore, she did fall out of favor completely, as everyone said.

Now that she has been beaten into the cold palace, what difference does it make to say it or not?

Shuangshuang sighed.

Jian Sizhen saw that her face was not good, and knew that she didn't keep her mouth shut, which made the princess unhappy. Hurriedly laughed and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, if you start preparing now, it's still too late." ”

Another female official also came over and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a good chrysanthemum, why don't you just use this purse as a birthday gift?" ”

"Huh? This purse is embroidered by Daddy. Shuangshuang shook his head and refused without thinking about it.

"Why don't you make a sachet? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes mint and often uses mint as incense. The sachet is close to the body, and the side of the king is long, and the sachet is like seeing the concubine. ”

A familiar voice came, and everyone quickly got up and dispersed.

Both looked up curiously, and saw Fei Shangyi and Hua Shangmei stepping into Si Zhen's room, and the person who had just spoken was Pei Shangyi.

"The slave maid participates in the crown princess, and the mother is blessed with Jin'an." Before they could get up, they all knelt down and saluted.

"Hua Shang Bed! Fei Shangyi! Hurry up, two of you! ”

Shuangshuang put down the purse in his hand in surprise, quickly stood up, hurriedly walked over with three steps and two steps to help the two of them from their salute, and then affectionately took the hands of the two and sat down and began to talk about the old days.

"I haven't seen you for some days, are you okay in the palace?"

"Back to Niangniang, a few days ago, the slave maid heard Zhou Shanggong talk about Niangniang, saying that you came to the Sizhen Bureau recently, and Pei Shangyi and I found an opportunity to come here to meet Niangniang."

Hua Shang's temperament is straightforward, when he was in the house, he often ridiculed Shuangshuang in front of his subordinates, and the days were not short, and in the three months of Lu Mansion, Hua Shangshu was the most courageous of all female officials, and the most distressed person, so when he saw Shuangshuang, he was particularly enthusiastic.

Compared with Hua Shangyu's happy smile, Fei Shangyi always did not smile, and raised both sides with a cold face as usual:

"If the mother is embroidering the birthday gift of His Royal Highness the Prince, as Hua Shangyu said, the sachet is the best."

Shuangshuang knows Pei Shangyi's personality, her face is cold and her heart is hot, although she doesn't talk much, she gets to the point every time. Therefore, she respects Pei Shangyi very much.

"It's not good......... Wouldn't it seem too intimate........." asked both hesitantly.

"The lotus packaging is all bits and pieces, which is not as good as the sachet to admit the feelings, and has the effect of warding off evil and driving away plague. Niangniang is the prince's wife, how can she be too intimate to share her worries and relieve labor for Her Royal Highness and repel mosquitoes? ”

Fei Shangyi was still expressionless, but everyone understood the meaning and smiled.

"I'll think about it again."

Others don't know, but Shuangshuang himself knows, bullshit's wife, which wife have you seen live in the cold palace? Both secretly slandered, and their faces were angry.

"This year, the frost attendant made a scarf and gave it to His Highness to ward off the cold."

Fei Shangyi saw Shuangshuang's reluctance, and gave her another dose of fierce medicine.

"Look at the slave, the sachet is just right. If the lady thinks that the etiquette is light, it is better to think about the word affection. In ancient times, Cao Zhi also wore sachets, and even made rosemary, is the sachet a cheap gift? Sachets have been used as an expression of affection since ancient times, and they are perfect as birthday gifts. ”

Fei Shangyi is well-informed and well-read. When it comes to speaking, it is a set of words, which makes people have to admire.

Before coming to the Sizhen Bureau, she had heard Li Shanggong say that after the Shanggong Bureau, the crown princess would choose the treasures first, and the emperor and queen didn't care about the East Palace, and the only person who moved the Sizhen Bureau was the prince.

At this time, it is the time to inquire about the true heart of the prince, and if the princess does not cooperate, she has no choice.

Shuangshuang is not stupid, so he naturally knows why Pei Shangyi gave her ideas.

When she was in the Lu Mansion, several female officials expressed their loyalty and were willing to support themselves to gain a firm foothold in the palace, but now that she has fallen to this, how can they not be anxious?

It's not that she doesn't want to give gifts, it's just that she feels sad when she thinks of Shen Mu now, where is she in the mood to embroider that affectionate Rausch sachet!

But seeing that everyone was looking at them blankly, Shuangshuang couldn't refute their kindness, so he had to nod and pretend to agree, in fact, he thought in his heart that he would prepare other congratulatory gifts to mix the sachets at that time.

On the way back, Shuangshuang's mind was full of preparing congratulatory gifts, and he didn't have a clue after thinking about it for a long time. Retreated from Yanxi and Jing'er, and walked alone in the direction of the waterfall.

The North Champs flowing spring waterfall, to the middle of winter wax moon is still inexhaustible.

Both of them often go to the small pavilion next to the waterfall, listening to the flowing water, and the mood is extraordinarily calm.

But today's waterfall sounds like orchestral music.

Both of them stopped and hid themselves behind the banana leaves, curiosity rising from her heart, as if a cat was scratching the tip of her heart, making her heart itch.

She is the only master in the North Champs, and the palace maids and eunuchs perform their duties and are busy, and no second person will hang out here except her.

Listen to the rhyme of the flute like the cry of the warbler in the empty valley, fly between the orchids, the dust is not sticky, sometimes melodious and tactful, like flowing water. The rhyme is high, and the sound is like a white crane breaking out of the sky, and the momentum is majestic.

The obsession of both hiding next to listen, the music lingers in the ears, although the bamboo orchestra is elegant and rich, but the rhythm of the music walks alone in this waterfall, and the elegance is even more elegant.

She had never heard such a mellow and soft, lingering villa blowing music, and she was surprised that the North Champs had such an attainment.

Shuangshuang was envious, she also learned music when she was a child, but because of her lack of talent, she only learned some skin.
