Many years later, Wanying sat in the crispy and intoxicating ten-mile spring breeze, and still said in her heart: "Yong'an nine years, that year's snow, it can't end." God seems to know that a catastrophe is coming, and he tells everyone in this way, but unfortunately no one understands, including himself."

Wanying returned to Rongshou Palace from the pear orchard, and on the way, Princess Beiping and Princess Dong'an grabbed Wanying and chattered vigorously. Even the Mid-Autumn Festival appointment more than half a year later forced Wanying to decide early.

"Miss Shi, has the wedding date been set?" Princess Beiping is a frequent visitor to the master's mansion, and Wanying also knew her before.

"Not yet, tentatively scheduled to go home on the fifth day of the first lunar month, and then wait for the arrangement of the Pavilion Department." Wanying said.

"It's still Miss Shi's fate, the sixth master is the prince, the only concubine of the queen mother, and Miss's blessing is still to come." Princess Dong'an said with envy.

"Isn't that what you say, the sixth master can put pen to paper to settle the world, and Wu can go to the horse to determine the world, how many girls and ladies are in their spring boudoir dreams!" Princess Beiping obviously lost her temper when she said this.

"Sister-in-law and princess, you won't also have a crush on our sixth master, right?" Princess Dong'an broke Princess Beiping's gaffe in front of Wanying with bad intentions.

"Brother and sister, you can make jokes casually, you can't talk nonsense like this, if you don't worry about it like this, this princess can't afford it. What's more, the new daughter-in-law is still here. Princess Dong'an was out of shape, and her face was very unbearable.

"Sister-in-law, my sister just said it casually, you really take it seriously."

"Is this something that can be said casually? We all have a fate, saying such things, you are at ease to curse me not to die, one day I see the third child, I have to sue you! "If Princess Beiping can say this, she should be angry.

"Okay, good, sister-in-law will have to come to our house one day, my sister will go to the best restaurant in the capital to book a table, call a few corners, and sing a few good plays, it can be regarded as my sister compensating my sister-in-law."

"It's pretty much the same, dare to talk nonsense in the future, be careful with your mouth."

"Good sister-in-law, my sister doesn't dare anymore."

"Two mothers, Wanying has some things, go first." Wan Ying saw that the two princesses had already begun to say something that she couldn't interject, so she hurriedly went to find Wan Yun, so she hurriedly said goodbye to the two princesses.

Before Wanying could go far, she heard the voice of Princess Dong'an behind her ears. "She's really interesting? Before she became the princess and concubine, she didn't take us seriously, and while we were talking to her, she left. ”

"Okay, brother and sister, don't say a word, be careful to be heard."

"Look at her flamboyance, the flowing shoulder shawl is the one when the Queen Mother was sealed, and she is wearing it swaggeringly on her body today. is really a concubine, and she has no cultivation at all. ”

Wanying heard the bruises and purple swells all over her body, watched Wanyun walk away, gritted her teeth, and ran towards Wanyun.

When I walked in, I saw that Wanyun was also surrounded by her, and from beginning to end, she didn't have a chance to say a word to Wanyun.

When Wanying sat in her room, she was already a regular card.

"After watching the play for an afternoon, how did you get depressed?" Qi Qiuli stared at Wanying's flowing shoulder shawl and asked.

Wanying untied her shoulder cloak and suddenly felt that her shoulders were much looser. Said cowardly: "After watching the play for an afternoon, I really held it tightly, and I didn't even drink a cup of tea."

Qi Qiuli took a cup of tea and handed it to Wanying, and put the heavy flowing shoulders in the brocade box.

Wan Ying took a few sips of tea and said abruptly: "Xue Guifei has been beaten into the cold palace." ”

"That Xue Guifei? Among the four noble concubines in the palace, there is no mother surnamed Xue? ”

"Tong Zhaoyi, who has been stripped of her title, will be a noble concubine."

Qi Qiuli first stared fiercely at the tea hanger on the stove in the house, and then gritted her teeth and said, "Slut, the eighteen layers of hell are all innocent of death. ”

Wanying ate sloppy breakfast, and didn't take a few bites of lunch, but when she arrived here, she suddenly felt empty in her stomach, and said to Qi Qiuli, "Have you eaten dinner?" ”

Qi Qiuli stared at the tea hanger and didn't speak, as if she hadn't heard Wanying's words. Wan Ying heard that the water in the tea hanger was already 'gurgling' boiling, and the rapid water splash was wrapped in the fiery steam, and the small lid on the tea hanger was 'da-da' loud. Wanying raised another tone and said, "Have you eaten dinner?" ”

Qi Qiuli was still staring at the 'suddenly' non-stop tea hanger, her eyes were rolling with an indescribable torrent, some excitement, some melancholy, some sadness, some despair, and finally it merged into a long hatred, and the waves flowed eastward.

"Qiuli?" Wanying called Qi Qiuli for the third time, but she still didn't hear it.

Wanying walked over, patted Qi Qiuli on the shoulder, and said softly, "Qiuli, beware of the water flower burning you." ”

When Qi Qiuli heard this, as if she had really been burned, she suddenly moved, and then with a panicked expression, she said, "This stove is really strong, and the tea will boil in just a while." ”

Wanying looked at Qi Qiuli suspiciously, her expression seemed to be trying to hide it after doing something wrong.

"What are we going to have for dinner?"

"Huh? Dinner? That one...... I...... You...... Are you hungry? Qi Qiuli was still immersed in a huge panic.

"Well, hungry. Have you eaten? ”

"I thought you were eating in the pear orchard, so I ate some of myself just now, I'll go and show you now, what else can I eat in the kitchen."

After Qi Qiuli finished speaking, she didn't even care about the tea on the stove, and hurriedly went out of the house.

Wan Ying looked at the angry tea hanger in front of her, not knowing how to take it off the fire. took a thick rag and tried to pick up the tea hanger, but before he could catch the tea hanger, his hand was burned and hurt, and the rag fell into the stove. Watching the rag burn, a puff of smoke coming out of the stove, Wanying was anxious and choked, and kept coughing dryly.

"Watch out for the burn!" The moment Prince Rong lifted the curtain, he saw Wanying holding a pair of fire chopsticks, trying to pick up the tea hanger.

Without saying a word, Prince Rong pulled out an iron hook from under the stove, hooked the handle of the tea hanger, and put it on the ground.

Wanying was a little shy and irritable, pouting and saying, "I'm really stupid, I can't even carry a tea hanger." ”

Prince Rong said dotingly: "This king likes you to be true and pure, and you are not pretentious. Although it is naïve, it is the same as the appetite of this king. ”

When she said this, Qi Qiuli happened to come in with a food box. For a while, the three of them were a little embarrassed. It was already dark, and Prince Rong couldn't stay longer, so after a few words, the two said goodbye.

Wanying took two vinegar-pickled side dishes and drank half a bowl of japonica rice porridge. He washed his face, leaned on the bed, and fell asleep. When I turned over in the middle of the night, I suddenly felt that the quilt next to me was cold, and when I opened my eyes, I saw that Qi Qiuli was nowhere to be seen, there was no heat in the quilt at all, and I didn't think much about it, I fell asleep again, and I don't know how long it was, Wanying was awakened by a crashing sound, and dimly knew that Qi Qiuli couldn't see anything on the ground, so she took the flint in a daze and lit the small oil lamp at the head of the bed.

"It's so late, where have you been?"

"I ...... I was in a bit of a hurry, so I went to Gongfang......"

"Why is it so long?"

"That...... I've been working on it lately, so it's a bit of a struggle. ”

Wanying slept all night, her mouth was a little dry, she took advantage of the light, wanted to get up and drink a cup of tea, sat on the edge of the bed and looked left and right, but couldn't find her shoes, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Qi Qiuli's feet, which were the embroidered shoes that her mother made for herself.

Qi Qiuli was also embarrassed, and quickly took it off in a panic, explaining: "Damn, damn it, I couldn't see it in the dark room just now, and I actually wore your shoes by mistake." ”

Wanying has cherished the things her mother gave her since she was a child, and these embroidered shoes have never been worn indoors, and she is reluctant to wear them out and get dirty. Now that Qi Qiuli has stepped on the mud and stained it, Wanying is obviously a little displeased. If it weren't for the fact that the shoes were hand-embroidered by her mother, she would never have worn them again, or simply thrown them away.

Seeing that Wanying was silent, Qi Qiuli hurriedly said, "Are you thirsty?" After speaking, he poured a cup of warm tea from the set pot and gave it to Wanying. Wanying drank the tea, lay on the bed, and turned her face to the side directly. There was no word all night until dawn.

At noon the next day, Xiao Linzi ran over and passed the words of the Queen Mother, asking Wanying to go to Cining Palace in the afternoon to talk. She was so happy that Wanying didn't even bother to eat lunch. Standing is not sitting, it is not easy to stay up until it is not right, change into a pink palace dress early, and prepare it unpretentiously. Sure enough, a quarter of an hour before Shen Shi, Xiao Linzi came over and led Wanying to Cining Palace together.

As soon as you enter Cining Palace, it is like entering a fairyland on earth. Outside the palace is the cold winter, but inside the palace is a gust of wind, a spring scene.

"Cining Palace is really on the feng shui, and the cold wind is here as if it has spared the way. It's not a bit of a slicing face. Wanying talked to Xiao Linzi.

Xiao Linzi ignored Wanying's love and pouted: "Feng Shui is naturally the upper feng shui in the palace, but you don't know it yet, under the entire palace of this Cining Palace, there is a earth dragon, and every year after October, the earth dragon is burned, so this Cining Palace is as warm as spring in winter." ”

Wanying's family is also a big family in the capital, and there is only one warm pavilion in each yard, and the rest of the rooms are heated by braziers. Unexpectedly, the Cining Palace, where the Queen Mother lived, was full of earth dragons under the entire palace. It is really extremely rich and glorious. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smack his tongue and said, "The entire palace is built with an earth dragon?" ”

Xiao Linzi was angry with Wanying for He You'an's matter, and when he heard Wanying questioning, he said angrily: "When did my Xiaolinzi deceive someone?" ”

A pun, Wan Ying knew that Xiao Linzi had something to say, but she didn't explain, she still surrounded the words of the earth dragon, and Xiao Linzi was close to it, and said: "No wonder, there can still be spring flowers here in winter, I thought it was because of the hot springs entering the palace." ”

Xiao Linzi saw that Wanying really looked like she had never seen the world, so she took Wanying's arm and said, "Come here, I'll take you to see and see even more strange." ”

Wan Ying saw that Xiao Linzi's complexion had eased a lot, and seeing that there was still a little time, she followed Xiao Linzi to the west flower pond. Turning around a row of holly tree walls, Wan Ying saw a budding peony, standing slimly behind the holly tree wall, and couldn't help but cry out in surprise: "Peony flowers? It's the flowering season in the middle of spring, and it's the middle of winter, which is wonderful. ”

Xiao Linzi said proudly: "This is our Queen Mother, who is blessed with Qitian, and this peony flower." ”

Xiao Linzi finally showed a smile, and Wanying also hurriedly flattered the little ghost and said, "Isn't it? It is really the Queen Mother's blessings, and this peony flower also came to the Queen Mother to say goodbye. ”

"That's it! At that time, the Empress of Heaven issued an edict to let the world's flowers bloom overnight, but the peony refused to cling to the powerful and proudly resisted. ”
