Chapter 005: Buckle the hairpin
Huai Sleeve heard that he was joking with Rong Ruo, so he moved his face to the side, his eyes swept over Rong Ruo's expression, and he seemed to be used to it.
But Rong Ruo smiled and replied: "Don't be cheap and sell well, who grabbed the chess game with me just now?" "
Huai Sleeve knew in his heart: it turned out that they were playing chess with their brother-in-law.
"Let's go!" Rong Ruo restrained her smile and prepared to leave with the man. Just took a step. But he turned back to his sleeve and said, "You still owe me, don't forget!" "
Huai Sleeve nodded, plucked the hairpin from his sideburns, tapped it lightly on the strings three times, and then looked at Rong Ruo slyly.
Rong Ruo saw her knock on the hairpin three times, and nodded with a smile. The man in the green shirt looked at the two of them and asked puzzledly, "What does this mean?" "
Rong Ruo stretched out his hand and grabbed the man's sleeve, and said with a smile: "Let's hurry up and enter the palace, long live the lord is still waiting!" With that, the two of them walked around the pillars and walked to the front yard.
With a smile on his sleeves, he watched Rong Ruo and the man disappear by the hanging flower door, and slowly inserted the hairpin back into his sideburns.
Seeing that Rong Ruo was gone, Su'er and Xueyan couldn't wait to run over, one on one side, and at the same time stared at the face of Huai Sleeve with eager eyes full of anticipation, and laughed stupidly while watching.
Huai Sleeve was uncomfortable to be seen by the two of them, stood up, lowered his face slightly, and pretended to be angry: "Why are you stupid looking at me?" Don't hurry up and put the piano away! After saying that, he hurriedly turned around and left.
Su Er and Xue Yan were far away, and they felt itchy in their hearts, where could they be sent away so easily.
The two girls smiled slyly at each other, and Xue Yan spoke first: "Gege, what did Rong Ruogongzi tell you just now?" We look, your face is red and white. "
Hearing this, Huai Sleeve grabbed Xue Yan's hand and said nervously, "Was my blushing just now obvious?" "
"Hmm!" The two girls nodded in unison. His pretty face collapsed, and he said in his heart: It's over, it's too big. The embarrassment was all looked down upon.
"However, Gege's blush is very cute, since I was a child, it's the first time I've seen Gege blush so many times in one day, hehe!" Su'er couldn't help but laugh. She wanted to comfort Huai Sleeve, but she didn't comfort it, after she said this, Huai Sleeve's expression became more and more gloomy, and she said in her heart: Blushing more than once, and so many times! Hey~ I can't wait to jump into the lotus pond immediately!
Today, in the eyes of Nalan Rongruo, what image does she have? Unconsciously, Huai Sleeve quietly paid attention to these subtle thoughts. And she herself does not know.
"Gege, you had a good chat with Lord Rong just now, that man in a green robe came to stir up something, why did he suddenly call Lord Rong away, I don't understand the accident!" Su'er snorted.
When Su Er mentioned this, Huai Sleeve suddenly remembered a key word: entering the palace. Entering the palace? So he must have seen the emperor. The next time I see him, I may be able to inquire about the situation in the palace by the way, and I don't know if the Kangxi Emperor is fierce or not, and he is a ......
Huai Sleeve was pondering these things, and he heard the whispers of two girls behind him. Huai Sleeve deliberately made a solemn face, and said in a deep voice: "What are you two muttering?" Sneaky! "
Xue Yan smiled: "We saw that Gege and Lord Narong were chatting very speculatively, but it wasn't fun enough, can we meet again if we have an appointment?" "
Huai Sleeve first turned his head and glared at the two of them, then smiled without saying a word, turned around and went straight to his embroidery building. Seeing this, the two girls glanced at each other, but they were at a loss. It's just that I've already seen that the mood of the sleeve seems to be exceptionally good.
Coming out of the Forbidden City, the sun had set in the west, and the sky was covered with rose-colored clouds. Rong Ruo, Gu Zhenguan, a cabinet scholar, and Chang Ning, Prince Heshuo Gong, walked out of the noon gate chatting casually, their respective servants led the horses, and the three of them parted hands.
Rong Ruo took the reins from Xiao Anzi's hand and turned over on the horse.
Whip up and go straight to the Ming Mansion in Houhai. When I returned to the house, it was already the time to hold the lamp, because when I was discussing politics with the emperor in the palace, it happened that Su Malagu made a few new snacks, and I didn't feel hungry at this time after eating a few pieces of dim sum.
When returning to the study and passing by Qixia Pavilion, Rong Ruo picked a few budding lotus flowers from the pond on the side, walked into Qixia Pavilion, raised his eyes and looked, there was a painting of ink and ink on the front wall, painting a young woman, folding a red plum in her hand and standing beside the Taihu Lake stone by the water, her eyebrows were soft, only in those eyes, there was hidden sorrow and hatred.
Rong Ruo gently inserted the lotus flower in his hand into the porcelain vase in front of the hanging statue, stared at the woman in the painting affectionately for a long time, and then turned around and walked towards the study alone.
After entering the study, the maid added new tea and quietly exited the door as usual, leaving only Rong Ruo alone in the room. Walking to the bookcase, Rong Ruo suddenly remembered the song played in the Shangshu Mansion in the afternoon, and couldn't help but smile.
This girl is quite interesting, she grew up in the Houmen Mansion, and she dared to play such a ** tune to declare her love, this calm state of mind shows a bit of frankness and cuteness. Thinking of her outfit today, Rong Ruo has guessed that it should be the identity of the master. But when there was a big trouble in Zifeng Tower that day, she was so enthusiastic that she couldn't see that she was the daughter of your mansion.
In the past, the fists and feet, today's rhythm, one movement and one stillness. It was a thing that was unrelated, but she actually got together with a person, such a woman had to attract people's attention, and Rong Ruo couldn't help but smile on her lips.
Thinking of her actions when she parted today, she lifted the pen and dipped it in ink, and wrote on the paper: "When we meet, we are silent, and a hibiscus is in the autumn rain." The small halo is red and the tide is slanted, and the heart of the diagonal slit is only phoenixy. Waiting to be called low, straight for the condensation of fear of people to see. I want to talk about ......"
Writing to the last sentence, Rong Ruo pondered for a moment, remembered that when he was leaving, he took off the hosta between the sideburns with his sleeve, tapped the strings three times, and wrote down: "Turn back to Lan and knock on the jade hairpin." "
Rong Ruo finished writing this poem, waited for the ink to dry, folded it and took down the yuan song from the bookshelf, turned to the page of Ma Zhiyuan's "Falling Plum Wind" that he sang with his sleeve, sandwiched the handwritten manuscript into it, and put the book back in its place.
The next day, because there was no dynasty, Kangxi only discussed politics in the south study, and Rong Ruo left the palace early. Xiao Anzi, who was waiting at the gate at noon as usual, saw Rong Ruo's hurried steps today, and asked, "Master, does he have something important today?" "
Rong Ruo pulled the saddle and got on the horse and said, "Go back to the house first to change into court clothes, I made an appointment at Zifeng Tower today." "
When Xiao Anzi heard this, he guessed that the master was in such a hurry, he must have made an appointment with an important person, and he didn't dare to slack off at all.
When he returned home, he called the attendants to quickly change their clothes, and Rong Ruo turned around and asked Xiao Anzi: "What time is it?" "
Xiao Anzi ran to look at the big bell in the atrium, and replied: "Back to the master, it's a moment." Rong Ruo thought for a while and said, "Prepare the horse and go to Zifeng Tower!" "
"Huh!" Xiao Anzi responded and ran out.
In early summer, before the sun is at its strongest, life on Chang'an West Street is boiling, and those who came out early in the morning to set up food stalls have not been withdrawn, and the cars of other trading houses have also been out of the stalls. The peddlers all want to take advantage of the only cool time of the day to make a few small profits.
Rong Ruoxin walked to the door of Zifeng Tower, got off the horse, and the guys who greeted the guests at the door of the store knew his identity, and hurried over to lead the horse to fall and kick, greeting and serving.
Walking into the hall, the big guy who ran the hall ran over and greeted warmly: "Young Master Rong, where do you want to sit today?" I'll prepare you to go. "
Rong Ruo didn't speak, just glanced at the tables downstairs and went upstairs. The big guy cautiously followed behind Rong Ruo, ready to be sent by Hou.
