Chapter 22 Plum Blossom Appreciation

Xu is because of this compassion, Liu Ill has rarely opened his mouth to stop Shangguan Youhao, before, Liu Ill has always attributed Shangguan Youhao to the Huo family, and Huo Guang's obstruction of their husband and wife has not only made Liu Yi dissatisfied, but also added a little fear, and Shangguan Youhao, who generally has blood and blood from the Huo family, has naturally become a person that Liu Yi has been wary of. However, after Xu Pingjun got along with Shangguan Youhao after entering the palace, Liu Ying was a lot more relieved, after all, she had not made a stumbling block for Xu Pingjun, even if Xu Pingjun was the queen, Shangguan Youhao did not say a word.

People's hearts are always long, and Liu Yi has been in the folk for 18 years, from a gangster to a ranger, and has seen a lot of difficult scriptures, and his sympathy for Shangguan is becoming more and more popular, and his wife laments for the young empress dowager from time to time, and she slowly cares about her.

Shangguan Youhao heard the sound of the empress dowager from the two of them, followed the sound, and saw the two people coming down from the shelter, "Your Majesty and the empress are also here, but it is a coincidence." Shangguan said lightly, but it couldn't be ignored, her faint sadness.

Liu Ai has frowned slightly, such a Shangguan is lonely after all, so he can only fall into the memories and thoughts of Emperor Zhao, if it is a folk woman, Liu Ai can still let her remarry her lover, but once she enters the palace, this life can only be like this.

"The Empress Dowager, I don't know if Chengjun has something to do these days?" Xu Pingjun suddenly changed his words and led the topic to Huo Chengjun.

Although Shangguan Youhao was puzzled, why Xu Pingjun suddenly asked Huo Chengjun, he also answered truthfully: "The county lord must not have any major events in the mansion, if the queen has something, I can send someone to the Huo Mansion to ask." "If you don't know the purpose, you should be calm.

It's just that Shangguan Yu said a kind word, Xu Pingjun seemed to take it seriously, "It's so annoying to the Queen Mother, Pingjun is very boring in the palace, I want to talk to Chengjun inside and outside the palace, so I think it's good to wait for her to be free, and to reminisce about the past." "Actually, Xu Pingjun and Huo Chengjun have nothing to talk about, but in the three or five days in Huo Mansion, if you really talk about it, the last time you met, it should be over, but it is also true that this palace is boring, and it is not as comfortable as the people.

Shangguan Youhao didn't dare to respond without permission, and raised his eyes to look at Liu Ai beside Xu Pingjun, Liu Ai already minded the name Huo Chengjun a little, if he responded rashly, he was afraid that he would make trouble for Huo Chengjun.

Although Liu Ying didn't want Huo Chengjun to run to the palace from time to time, how could he bear to refuse his beloved wife's intentions, and winked at Shangguan Youhao, indicating that he had agreed.

"In this case, tomorrow I will let the lord of Xuanjun enter the palace, if the queen has any discomfort in this palace, she can find me." Although Xu Pingjun greets Shangguan Yu Yu in Changle Palace every day, it is the etiquette between the elders and the younger generations after all, and after a long time, it is natural to talk more, but it is not close, it can only be said that it is not alienated.

"In this way, Pingjun thanked the Empress Dowager first." Xu Pingjun squatted down and saluted, Shangguan Youfu supported each other with both hands, "It's rare for the Queen Mother to come here, how about enjoying the plum together?" "If she had them by her side, maybe she wouldn't be so lonely.

Shangguan Youhao looked at the white plums blooming not far away, and a smile floated, "Do you know that there is a plum garden in this palace, and the red plums in that garden are forested, if they are all in full bloom, it is very beautiful, if you say that you can enjoy the plums, why not go over there?" "Actually, Shangguan Youhao was just bored for too long, thinking about coming out to relax, but who knew that he met the two people who appreciated the plum.

Liu Ill has nodded, the three of them under the guidance of Song Bang, to the plum garden, but the more this road goes, the more familiar Liu Ill feels, and when he got to the garden, he found that this was not the last time to hide in a quiet place, but because he met a girl, he left in a hurry, but he didn't expect that it was usually inconspicuous, but in this cold winter, this quiet garden was so beautiful.

The high and low red plums in the garden contrast with each other, in the winter of slaughter, add a lot of vitality, the red plum is like the sea but not glamorous, if there is a fragrance that seems to be nothing, it reveals the meaning of widowhood, "this red plum forest is really good, if it is a piece of white plum, it is also refreshing." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Xu Pingjun beside him, and both of them showed a deep smile.

At this point, Shangguan Youyu thought to himself, that white plum may be the love of these two people, and maybe it is what special meaning it has for them, but he didn't ask much, only said: "Plum blossoms like yin, those who have not set foot in remote places, there are also a few white plum trees, but there are not so many red plums." "A patch of white is not as joyful as a garden of red, so there is rarely a snow-white garden in this palace.

Standing quietly in the red plum, the thoughts flew back to the past, the red plum did not fade because of the past, still standing in front of the flowers, the people who admired the flowers looked up at the stamens dotted with smiles, stretched out their fingers to touch, "Another year of flowers, this flower will still be in the coming year." But the man never came back, but this was only the first year......

"Flowers are easy to wither and things are changeable", Huo Chengjun looked at the plum blossom that fell in the palm of his hand, and secretly muttered, with the death of Liu Fuling this year, many things have been spinning rapidly, and before she has time to react, too many have changed.

"Miss, the person sent by the Empress Dowager is waiting in the hall, and the lord asks the young lady to go to the flower hall." The maid trotted to sue and recall Huo Chengjun's thoughts in the flowers.

"I'll go over here", I heard that it was a person sent by Shangguan Youhao, Huo Chengjun was self-conscious, and his feelings were more from Shangguan Youhao, since Liu Fuling returned to heaven, and after Liu He made nonsense, and after Liu Yi had ascended to Keina, after a series of things, Shangguan Youhao became more and more silent.

The little eunuch went to Huo's mansion, naturally for Shangguan Youhao to promise Pingjun, and the Huo family agreed, but Huo Xian's heart became more and more uncomfortable, "It's really different to sit on the queen's throne, seeing Chengjun and alarming the people of Changle Palace, master, what is the purpose of this Queen Xu summoning Chengjun into the palace?" In addition to the dissatisfaction in her heart, she also has worries about her daughter, after all, Xu Pingjun's days in Huo Mansion, she didn't give her a good look, after she entered the palace, in the matter of the future, the Huo family is indeed the biggest obstacle, and the summons without warning is afraid that it will be a Hongmen banquet.

"Mother, the Queen Mother is in the palace, what is there to worry about, besides, the daughter is not the first time to see her, if you really want to be embarrassed, you don't have to wait until today, and the Queen Mother is not a narrow-minded person, the mother doesn't have to worry too much." In comparison, Huo Chengjun is much more relaxed, those conspiracies and tricks are not in her consideration at all, she just thinks of meeting a friend, but this friend's status is extraordinary.

On the second day, the sky was overcast and the clouds were pressed very low, Huo Chengjun hurriedly entered the palace, wearing a pink pleated embroidered skirt, the cuffs and skirts were embroidered with very delicate craftsmanship, the clothes were like an ink painting, but it also responded to this winter scene, wearing a silver fur collar cape, the lotus step moved lightly, and it looked like a person in the painting from a distance.

"It's a shame that you're cold, you got up early and came early, I thought you would come back after a lunch break." Shangguan Youhao hurriedly handed over the stove in his hand, and ordered the palace maid to take another one, Huo Chengjun loves to take a nap at noon, and this day is freezing, Shangguan Youhao really didn't expect that she would enter the palace after breakfast, no matter what, the weather is always colder in the morning and evening.

Huo Chengjun took the stove in Shangguan Youhao's hand, "I'm afraid that it will rain in the sky, so when the heavy rain is pouring down, I will come with an umbrella, it is better to come over earlier, and save those hands and feet." Huo Chengjun said and sat down with Shangguan Youhao, "The eunuch who listened to the decree said that it was the queen mother who wanted to see me, which one is this?" Huo Chengjun's starry eyes were full of doubt.

Shangguan Youhao said something about yesterday, but saw Huo Chengjun a little flashy, "What's wrong with you?" In the blink of an eye, Shangguan Youhao seemed to understand why she was distracted, and was silent.

"I'll sit down for a while and go to the Jiaofang Palace, can you go with me?" Huo Chengjun broke the strange silence.

"She will definitely come to greet her later, and you will discuss whether to catch up here or go to the Jiaofang Palace." Xu Pingjun's daily time is very regular, and Shangguan can calculate it.

At first, when Xu Pingjun came, the palace maid would first report to Shangguan Youhao, and after a long time, Shangguan Youhao was also exempted from her notification, so when Xu Pingjun was outside the door, Shangguan Youhao knew that the person had come.

Huo Chengjun hurriedly got up and blessed his body, "The courtiers meet the queen." "The rules cannot be abolished, and there are many people in the palace, Huo Chengjun doesn't want to leave people talking.

And Xu Pingjun, as usual, asked Shangguan Youhao to serve tea before taking a seat, "I told the Empress Dowager yesterday that I wanted you to enter the palace to accompany me, but I never thought that you would come today." And this early in the morning, not only Shangguan Youhao was surprised when he saw her, but also Xu Pingjun was very surprised.

"It's okay to be idle in the house, thanks to the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, I was able to enter the palace to play." Compared with the casual nature of Fang Cai and Shangguan, at this time, Xu Pingjun's respect seemed a little alienated.

Xu Pingjun can also feel this alienation, "Chengjun, you and I are as sisters as in the mansion, okay?" "Xu Pingjun has never had any frame in front of Huo Chengjun, and he doesn't care about any distinction between dignity and inferiority.

"Your Majesty has arrived!" Before Huo Chengjun could answer, as soon as he heard the eunuch's singing, Liu Yi had come out of the Xuan Room, so he went to the Jiaofang Palace, halfway through, thinking that she should be in Changle Palace at this time, so he was looking for a wife here.

For Liu Ai, a person who rarely goes to Changle Palace, he also took the initiative to come here for no more than two reasons, either he had something to discuss with Shangguan Youhao, basically he wanted to borrow the name of the empress dowager; Otherwise, for the sake of his beloved wife, Shangguan Youhao was convinced that he must have come for the latter today, and the court has been very calm recently, and there is no need for his own summons.

"The county lord is also here, no wonder Zitong just wants to stay in this Changle Palace." Although Liu Yi was already smiling, he also had infinite contradictions in his heart, and his eyes looked at Huo Chengjun when people were not paying attention.
