Chapter 18: Who's Your Little Wine?

According to her memory, she recounted in a whisper: "In Daze, the right of Alu, the mountain produces peppers, and the peppers are as big as projectiles, and the incense of burning is several miles. Every time the pepper is burned, there are birds fluttering down from the clouds, the five colors shine, the name is ochre bird, and the phoenix species is also ......"

Xiao Tingchen straightened up, with a shallow smile on the corner of his lips, "In the past, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty broke the Xiongnu and once got such a pepper tree, he asked Dongfang Shuo what this tree was, and Dongfang Shuo replied, 'This Tianxian pepper is also.'" There are thousands of miles outside the plug, which can lead to phoenixes. So Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty transplanted the pepper tree in the Taiye Pool, and during the Yuan Emperor period, the pepper was born, and sure enough, the phoenix birds gathered......"

"Since it can attract a phoenix, it can be seen that this thing is valuable. The little brother planted it in this kind of open old clay pot, isn't it a tyrannical thing? ”

Xiao Tingchen stepped into the threshold, and when he passed by Su Jiu's side, he rubbed the little girl's head, "A tile basin is a basin, and a gold basin is also a basin." For young flowering trees, clay pots are actually more suitable for growth than impermeable gold pots. ”

With that, a meaningful smile tugged at the corner of his lips, and he went to change his clothes behind the screen.

Su Jiu bit his lip and his eyes fell on the fiery Tianxian pepper.

Just when Xiao Tingchen was changing his clothes, Qiu Wen came over in person, bowed to him, and said with a smile: "Fifth son, Madame heard that you are in good health, please go to Rong'an Courtyard to talk......

Her smiling gaze fell on Su Jiu again, "Madame heard that there is a clever girl next to the fifth son, let this little girl also go over to have a good time, and tell Madame about the interesting things outside Jinling City." ”

Su Jiu's heart turned.

Since this sister asked her to talk about things outside Jinling City, the lady who wanted to come to the second room already knew her origin.

A noble lady who wants to kill her concubine, she doesn't think that the other party is interested in listening to her talk about the affairs of the village.

She pressed the light under her eyes, and her appearance was quite restrained and coquettish, and she only looked at Xiao Tingchen timidly.

The little brother tied his hair with an ebony hairpin today, wore a azure straight shirt, put his hands in his sleeves, and stepped on a pair of black cloth shoes with white soles under his socks.

The delicate and gentle face always had a gentle smile, as clean as a pine and bamboo, and it looked quite bookish and gentlemanly.

He spoke, and even his voice was clear and gentle, "Sister Qiuwen came by coincidence, I was about to go to say hello to my mother." Since the mother wants to see Ah Jiu, Ah Jiu will go together. ”

Qiu Wen pursed her lips and smiled, a touch of contempt flashed in her eyes, and she quickly led people towards Rong'an Courtyard.

After passing through the verandahs and several carved stone moon gates, Su Jiu finally saw Rong'an Temple.

In the courtyard, the servants and maids come and go endlessly, the flowers and trees are trimmed neatly, and there is an orderly solemnity in the bustle.

Qiu Wen led the two into the main hall.

Su Jiu looked quietly, only to see that the hall was furnished with a piece of cherry wood carved furniture, and there was a huge picture of a peony in the middle hall, which was very elegantly colored.

On the Taishi chair under the middle hall, a woman wearing a magnolia-colored Hunan embroidered Luo skirt was sitting.

She looked no more than thirty-five or sixteen, with a fan-shaped golden hairpin in her hair, a pair of apricot eyes that were not angry and self-imposing, two excellent red jade bracelets on her wrists, and her slender jade hands painted with bright red dankou were well-maintained, and she was dressed very splendidly.

She held a cup of tea, held the snow cover blue tea lid, and slowly brushed the tea surface.

Qiu Wen Yingying stepped forward, "Madam, the fifth prince has arrived." ”

Xiao Tingchen arched his hand, "The child has just recovered from a serious illness, and I am here to say hello to my mother." ”
