Chapter 144: The Embarrassed Queen (I)
The spring light is just right, the new green continues, the fresh air has a faint fragrance of flowers, birds and insects from far and near, the scenery is pleasant, and it is refreshing.
The ladies are raised in the deep boudoir, and they naturally do not go out of the door on weekdays, even if everyone has a garden at home, the scenery that can be artificially chiseled is different from this kind of wild fun.
What's more, the more you go up the gentle slope, the more diverse the types of rare flowers and plants, coupled with the glory and pride of accompanying the queen to travel, even if the old lady has to sit in a sedan chair to visit a garden on weekdays, he will feel brisk and happy when he walks.
Hearing that the queen was coming, the attendants who were guarding the garden had already greeted her, and when they came closer, they saluted and wanted to guide the queen and her party.
"Queen Mother, please come here."
The queen lightly brushed Yun Sideburns with her hands, her red lips were slightly upturned, and she said lazily: "You don't need to serve here, don't disturb the interest of the palace." ”
The queen's fame is up and down, and where the chamberlains dare to have objections, they can only bow and retreat, apprehensively embellished behind the ladies and walk with the guards.
Walking slowly, enjoying the scenery all the way, the old lady and other ladies are clustered around the queen's side, panting again and again, and not forgetting to praise the scenery of this place in the sky and the earth, and praise the queen for pampering the world, and the queen will be proud of the spring, not stingy laughter.
Qin Yining helped the panting Sun to walk at the end of the line, and did not greet the queen, just admired the scenery, and whispered to Sun: "Mother, how are you?" Tired? ”
"Fortunately, in the end, it's your physical foundation, I've been really idle all these years." Sun gasped and waved his hand and smiled.
Qin Yining said: "Looking back, my mother followed me around the garden twice every morning, and her body was getting better and better. ”
Sun shook his head and laughed when he heard this, raised his eyes, and saw a dense peach forest not far away, and couldn't help but admire: "Look at the peach blossoms in that place, it's really beautiful!" ”
Qin Yining, like everyone else, looked ahead.
I saw a pale pink warm cloud stretching out, and a large piece of Luo Zhi with makeup and suitable shades.
Perhaps because there is an underground warm spring on the mountain, the peach blossoms at home have just budded, but the peach blossoms here have bloomed in clusters, half covering the blue sky.
A group of ladies walked all the way along the path in the peach forest, the breeze blowing, the hair and clothes were flying, and the petals were flying, dyeing everyone with a little fragrance. Hearing the sound of gurgling water on the side of the road, I lowered my eyes and looked at it, only to see the falling flowers into the water, and the clear waves went away with red.
After walking dozens of steps, I suddenly saw a cluster of new pink walls and black tiles in front of me, and the eaves and teeth carvings were faintly visible behind the wall, and the new exquisite buildings made people feel that they were in the fairy mountain.
"Oh, it's been a long time since I've seen such beautiful peach blossoms."
"Yes, if it weren't for the queen's love, the courtiers and others would really not have the opportunity to see such fairyland-like scenery."
"Only a country like the queen is worthy of having such a fairy palace."
……
The ladies were talking about it, and everyone was not loud, and no one deliberately accosted the queen, but the voices were just right for the queen to hear clearly.
The queen who walked in front smiled and walked forward proudly, and the ladies who walked in a roundabout way continued to follow behind in low admiration.
And the little attendant who was in charge of guiding the way behind was already pale.
After dozens of steps to the door, the ladies looked up at the plaque in admiration, but saw the word "Ning Yuan" on the black lacquer plaque.
The queen was stunned for a moment, and squinted at the palace people beside her: "When did the Changchun Garden of the palace change its name?" Why Hongu doesn't know. ”
Everyone was also wondering, and they turned their heads to each other.
The little chamberlain walked forward quickly with a sad face, knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Back to the queen mother, this is not a very spring garden, just now, just took a fork in the road." ”
The ladies were so surprised that they all stopped talking.
The queen frowned and said coldly: "What? After walking for a long time, this place is not Ivy Garden? Why doesn't this palace remember that there is such a place on Ivy Mountain! ”
The little chamberlain knelt on the ground and trembled, just now he was about to lead the way, but the queen didn't let him serve in front of him!
The queen was also slightly embarrassed.
She is the queen, and naturally she has to accompany the king every day, and she only has a rare opportunity to occasionally go out of the palace with the emperor, and it is not easy to save relatives or travel.
Although the Emperor of Changchun Garden gave it to her, she only came to the hot spring once last year, and a group of people followed at that time, so naturally she didn't need a queen to remember the way. Now that I went up the mountain, I only thought that there was only my own ivy garden on the mountain, and I didn't expect that the scenery I enjoyed along the way was actually someone else's home.
"Dog minion, how are you serving!" The housekeeper beside the queen kicked the waiter on the shoulder and rolled the person on the spot.
The attendant was bluffing and kowtowing again and again, "The queen spares her life, the queen spares her life!" ”
The queen pursed her red lips impatiently, thinking that there was still a group of people behind her, and she couldn't lose her identity as the mother of the country, so she could only suppress her anger and said lazily: "That's it, it's not a big deal, the left and right are also out to play, since you have taken the wrong road, then just walk back." ”
"What the queen said is that the air here is fresh and sunny, and you can walk happily all the way." Mrs. Guo said with a smile.
When everyone heard this, they immediately agreed, and the awkward atmosphere instantly eased.
The chamberlain hurriedly got up and led the way.
The queen was in a better mood, and surrounded by a group of noble ladies, returned along the road of the peach forest, and walked towards another slightly spacious bluestone road.
Only then did the queen discover that the road in the peach forest she had just walked was a newly opened dirt road on the ground, and the bluestone brick road here was the old road that originally led to the Ivy Garden.
It's just that the queen's good mood and the admiration of all the ladies faded as they moved along the way.
There is the fairy palace-like scenery in front of the jade, the road leading to the Ivy Garden here is lackluster, a few begonias on the side of the road are blooming well, but it is not as shocking as the fairy palace-like "Ning Yuan".
And the ladies praised and flattered all the way, and in the face of this dry scene, they could only pull out words such as "simple" and "elegant" with their conscience.
The queen's face became more and more ugly.
Until the gate of the Ivy Garden, the queen's face was as black as the bottom of the pot.
Fangcai's Ningyuan powder wall is new, Zhumen is gorgeous, and the buildings in the courtyard can be seen to be brand new.
The red wall of the Ivy Garden is half-old, the door is open, and the attendants kneel down to greet each other, which is magnificent, but the half-old courtyard and the lackluster garden seen through the open gate really make the queen deeply disgusted.
The queen wrinkled her eyebrows and reprimanded in a low voice: "How are you preparing to take over!" Where the hell did that garden come out of nowhere? ”
Although the queen's voice was low, the people behind her were not far away, and they could hear it clearly.
Seeing that the maid in the garden was specially taken care of by Cao Guozhang, seeing that the queen asked, he hurriedly stepped forward and whispered: "Back to the mother's words, the garden was ordered by the master to be repaired before, and the owner of the garden is very big, and the master said that please leave the mother alone." ”
The queen gritted her teeth, couldn't be angry when she was angry, and finally only squeezed out one sentence: "I'm not afraid of overstepping!" ”
As he spoke, he crossed the threshold first.
Seeing that the queen was displeased, the ladies all restrained their minds and followed, and they didn't dare to speak loudly, for fear of angering the embarrassed queen.
