Xiangshui River is located ten miles away from the East City Gate, which is a good place with beautiful mountains and rivers.

All year round, people come to Xiangshui River to play and enjoy the different scenery of Xiangshui River in each season.

In spring, the peach, plum and apricot blossoms on both sides of the bank bloom, and the spring breeze blows across the river, which is comfortable and pleasant; In summer, there are lotus leaves floating in the river, and when the lotus flowers are in full bloom, the lakes and mountains on both sides of the river are the most refreshing and pleasant; In autumn, the lake water and the blue sky are one color, and the maple and willow yellow on both sides of the bank are unique; In winter, the river is frozen and snow-capped, and although the trees on both sides are withered, the winter plum blossoms on the mountain are just as pleasant and admirable.

Therefore, such a good place is like the Banbi Mountain Qingshui Temple thirty miles away from the north city. However, unlike the continuous incense in Banbi Mountain, it is more of a good place for literati, students, scholars, and ink writers to drink wine and enjoy the scenery and poetry, and talk about literature and politics.

On both sides of the mountain and on the waterside on both sides, there are many pavilions and terraces.

After a heavy rain, there are obviously still a lot of people who are worried about the beauty here.

After Hua Yan and the others arrived, they saw that there were already many painting boats in the Xiangshui River swimming in the lake, and there were also many brightly dressed men, women and children who were sitting or standing in the pavilions on both sides of the lake and enjoying the scenery.

Hua Yan swept around and said with a smile, "It is worthy of being a very famous Xiangshui River, which is indeed beautiful and beautiful. ”

The fifth prince smiled slightly, "Does the fourth sister-in-law get on the boat to swim in the lake first, or do you want to take a turn along the waterfront?" ”

Hua Yan felt uncomfortable when she heard his name, and corrected, "Fifth prince, I don't mind calling my sister-in-law a little earlier, and calling me anything else." ”

The fifth prince shook his head with a smile, "The fourth brother has already decided on a sister-in-law, and there is no difference between morning and evening, the fourth sister-in-law is not used to it at the beginning, and it will be good to get used to it in the future." ”

Huayan rubbed her eyebrows, it seemed that before she ruined the marriage contract, she couldn't get rid of it, whether it was the title of the crown princess or the title of being called a sister-in-law. She took a deep breath and said, "Let's swim in the lake, and you can see the scenery on both sides of the river." ”

The fifth prince smiled and nodded, and gave an order to the guards who followed behind him, and the guards hurriedly went to call the boat.

Not long after, a gorgeous painting boat came, and the five princes invited Huayan to board the boat.

Hua Yan was not polite, and stepped into the painting boat first, Mama Fang and Qiu Yue followed her all the time, and naturally followed her to the painting boat. The five princes, the eleventh princes, Su Yuzhu, and An Ziyan each brought a guard.

The boat was very spacious, very delicate and luxurious, in addition to the six boatmen, there were also seven or eight beautiful women holding silk and bamboo orchestral instruments, and after the group came up, they all greeted each other.

Hua Yan sat on a couch on the side, and there were already melons and fruits and refreshments on the several cases in front of her.

Hua Yan looked at seven or eight beauties, with slender waists and graceful lotus steps, thinking that it was worthy of the prince and grandson swimming in the lake, and the arrangements were so comfortable and thoughtful.

Seeing Hua Yan staring at these women, the fifth prince couldn't guess her thoughts, and hurriedly said, "This is the singer and dancer who arranged singing and dancing earlier, if the fourth sister-in-law doesn't like it, let them go down." ”

Hua Yan hurriedly waved her hand, "I like it tightly, I don't have to go down." ”

The fifth prince was stunned when he heard this, and nodded.

The eleventh prince sat opposite Hua Yan and glanced at the women, "Huh? "Why don't you see Elaine, the best girl in song and dance?" ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, one of the leaders of the women hurriedly replied, "Master Hui, Miss Elaine's venue today was set out three days ago. You ordered it last night, and it's already late. ”

"Oh? Who decided it? So early? The Eleventh Prince asked with interest.

The woman hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Mrs. Wuwei Houji." ”

"Huh?" The eleventh prince was stunned, "She is a woman, why did she come here to rob women with her husband?" ”

As soon as he opened his mouth like this, Hua Yan was suddenly happy, and looked at the eleventh prince with a teasing smile and said, "Gentlemen? You are only twelve or thirteen years old, do you know how to enjoy the good of women? ”

The eleventh prince didn't expect to be teased by Hua Yan so bluntly, his face was red, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, and he was speechless for a while.

Hua Yan saw that his ears were red, and his delicate face was like a boiled egg, which was really cute. She admired it for a moment, smiled and said, "Shy of what?" At your age, it's really not small, and you can be called a master. ”

The eleventh prince stretched out his hand to cover his face, buried his head on the desk at once, and said angrily, "Fourth sister-in-law, you...... You make fun of me. ”

Hua Yan looked at his appearance and was overjoyed.

The five princes couldn't help but laugh, and Su Yuzhu and An Ziyan also dispelled a little restraint and laughed at the same time.

Because of this small episode, there was no longer a silent and dull atmosphere in the painting boat, and it became relaxed for a while.

Hua Yan smiled and asked the woman, "Did Mrs. Wuwei Hou come to swim in the lake by herself, or did she invite someone to swim in the lake together?" ”

The woman replied, "It is said that the two sons of Liufu were invited. ”

The eleventh prince was laughed at by everyone, and his face became thicker, so he simply said openly, "It turned out to be Liu Da and Liu San of Liufu, two lustful ghosts, no wonder they decided on Miss Elaine three days in advance." What did this Liu Fuxiang ask her two brothers for? Otherwise, how could they be willing to spend a lot of money to order Elaine to them? ”

The woman was silent.

Seeing Hua Yan's thoughtfulness, the fifth prince took over with a smile, "Eleventh brother, our purpose today is to come on a cruise, not to listen to music. Without Miss Elaine's quyi, it's nothing, why are you unhappy? ”

The eleventh prince nodded again and again, "Fifth brother is right, I'll just talk about it." Just ask who made the person? I didn't expect it to be Liu Fuxiang. When the words fell, he suddenly remembered something, looked at Hua Yan and said, "Fourth sister-in-law, I heard that she spoke ill of you in the Zhao Mansion that day, and you pushed her into the lake?" ”

Hua Yan thought that it was estimated that this matter had been spread to everyone, and she bowed her head, "There is such a thing." ”

The eleventh prince said, "Since you have already pushed her into the water, why did you go into the water to save her yourself?" Why didn't you let her drown directly in the water, even if you drowned her, the fourth brother would protect you. ”

Hua Yan was surprised and looked at the eleventh prince, "She offended you?" Why did you mention that she was so bitter and hateful? ”

The eleventh prince coughed and shook his head, "She didn't offend me, but she is the kind of woman who abandons her brother from the beginning, and I am most disgusted, I think it's better for her to die, so as not to feel uncomfortable every time Brother Zi Chop sees her." ”

Hua Yan thought that Su Ziqi would be uncomfortable when she saw Liu Fuxiang? She really didn't see it on his face in the Zhao Mansion that day, she smiled and stopped talking.

As soon as the five princes waved their hands, the singers and dancers in the painting boat moved, and after a while, the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras sounded.

The song and dance tunes in the capital all carry a sense of luxury, delicate, gentle, delicate, and turning, which looks and sounds beautiful.

Hua Yan enjoyed the song and dance while sipping tea, and thought that Liu Fuxiang was rarely afraid of the water because of the sunset, and she even came to the lake today.

I don't know if I can meet it, but if I can, it would be great.

Although Yun had a warning sooner or later, if something happened to her, only the eleventh prince would ask, but what if she didn't look for something, and the matter took the initiative to find her? Then that's another story, right?

Thinking like this, she couldn't help but smile slightly as she looked at the scenery of the lake and mountains on both sides of the lake.

Qiu Yue saw Hua Yan's smile, she was extremely familiar, and her heart suddenly chuckled, and she couldn't help but lean into her ear and whispered, "Miss, you won't have anything to plan today, right?" Don't forget that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that the matter was asked by the Eleventh Prince. ”

Hua Yan stretched out her hand and patted Qiu Yue's cheek gently, "Well, I remember, I won't let the eleventh prince take the blame." ”

When Qiu Yue heard this, she really had the intention of looking for trouble, so she stopped speechlessly.

The boat slowly rowed to the center of the lake, where there was already an equally beautiful boat parked, and there was a tune floating out of the boat, and the tune of the song was so beautiful that it made people's bones crisp when they heard it.

When the eleventh prince heard the sound, he immediately looked out of the boat, and after a moment, his eyes widened, and he said in surprise, "It's Miss Elaine's voice, which is also too fragrant, I have never heard her sing such songs." Today, he must have been persecuted by Liu Da and Liu San. ”

The fifth prince also heard it, looked out, and said, "No matter how high Miss Elaine's music skills are, no matter how high she is, she is just a person who can't help herself when the rain hits duckweed." Not to mention that Mrs. Wuwei Hou asked for it, even if the two sons of Liufu asked her to sing such a tune, she didn't dare not sing it. You usually can't hear it, because in our Southern Chu Capital, the sons of famous families are rarely difficult for strong people, but excluding the two Mrs. Wuwei Hou and Liufu, they are an exception. ”

Hua Yan also glanced out, the painting boat she was sitting on was still some distance away from the painting boat, and she couldn't see the situation inside very clearly, faintly with fragrant sideburns.

She thought about it in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, and said with a smile, "Whether it's elegant or fragrant, it's just a tune, I think it's a good song, let's draw closer, and by their light, we can also feast our ears." ”
