II

After the first day of the new year, Su Ying was very empty for a few days, although there was a very grand banquet on the fifth day of the first month, but she was used to such banquets, but she sat down to eat and drink, and talked to the princesses of Guining, those princesses were all older than her, and there was nothing to talk about except for the scene, she just pretended to listen very seriously next to her, and then praised someone in a timely manner, rewarded something, and then mixed it up.

Today's liquor is said to be the most famous liquor in Xiangdong, brewed from the water of the lake, the entrance is clear and mellow, and the aftertaste is endless.

Su Ying didn't like this kind of liquor very much, so Princess Shouyang had no choice but to sit at the main table with her, and the other people at the table had to come forward to toast one by one, she just took a sip every time, but there were too many people toasting, and she drank three or four glasses unconsciously. However, although Princess Shouyang is old, the amount of alcohol is much better than her, and the more she drinks, the more energetic she becomes.

Finally dispersed the feast, she only felt dizzy, Duan Niang and Yun Luo helped her out of the palace gate left and right, it was snowing outside, Duan Niang was about to order someone to prepare a warm sedan chair, but Su Ying had already pulled A Man Xingchong and ran out.

The snowflakes came with a soft coolness, like countless tiny fluffs, and she immediately eliminated most of the wine. It was about the last snow of the year in Tenkyo, and although it was small, it was also piled up in a thin layer on the ground.

With this kind of snow, you can't build a big snowman. Su Ying pinched a snowball casually, looked at Aman's small body, and couldn't bear to smash it, so he had to roll on his round face: "Does Aman like snow?" ”

Aman said crisply: "Of course I like it, the Queen Mother must not have seen our Xiliang snow, it rains so much and a lot, it creaks when you step on it, I don't know how many times more fun it is than the snow in Tianjing!" ”

When she heard this, she immediately became interested: "Really? I know that it is very cold in the west, and there is a lot more snow there than in Tianjing. ”

"Of course!" Ah Man's chubby little hands were like two white steamed buns, and he grabbed her fingers tightly: "Xiliang not only has beautiful snow, but also has a lot of fun!" Queen Mother, why don't you go back to Xiliang with Aman in a few days, and Aman will take you to ride a horse! ”

Speaking of horseback riding, she couldn't help but think of Pei Zhao again. In fact, no matter what she says, she will think of Pei Zhao, which is really a torturous thing.

"I'm not going to Xiliang!" She deliberately teased Aman: "I think Tianjing is also very good, Aman, have you ever seen a tree flower?" It's the prettiest thing in the world! ”

Su Ying thought that she was about to finish, because she seemed to be tightly strangled by a rope at this time, and the word "Pei Zhao" was written on the rope, which followed her like a shadow and taught her to breathe.

Fortunately, at this time, Aman secretly threw a big snowball at her neck, and the biting coldness finally made her sober up, of course she would not lose to such a short little doll, and immediately grabbed a large ball of snow and wanted to stuff it into Aman's robe, but he didn't expect that although he had short legs, he ran down quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he ran to Princess Shouyang, who was trembling and walking over, and asked with a smile:

"Queen Mother, what else is there to do in Tianjing?"

Tianjing's interesting things, the whole Da Cao estimated that few people knew better than her, and she crossed her fingers and counted them to Aman with great interest:

The merchant who carried the burden really seemed to have a treasure chest, those finely made mud whistles, rattles, moros, drinking birds...... Everything is exquisite; The hemp balls, glutinous rice balls, white sugar cakes, and rock sugar gourds that can be bought with a few copper plates in the roadside stalls are very delicious; Not to mention the wonderful sumo wrestling, keju and hundred operas in the Goolan tile shop......

Sitting in the Qingyun Hall of Princess Shouyang, she swallowed melon seeds, and the more she talked, the happier she became, and Aman was also fascinated when she heard it. She wanted to talk about the beauties who could sing and dance in the Tianjing Wine Workshop, but Aman was so young, and Princess Shouyang and Duanniang were also beside her, so she was afraid that she couldn't talk about it, so she had to swallow it back into her stomach.

Unexpectedly, Aman took the lead in asking: "There are so many interesting things in Tianjing, so is there a beautiful girl?" ”

She reached out and poked Ah Man's bulging cheek: "You little guy, why are you so ......" She really couldn't think of a suitable word, so she had to knock on his head and say duplicitously: "What is there to see about a beautiful girl!" ”

Aman was very unconvinced: "But my grandmother always told me that there is a place called Jiufang in Tianjing, and the girls in it are very beautiful, and they sing better than our larks in Xiliang!" ”

Yes?

Su Ying looked at the very kind and dignified Princess Shouyang in a daze: "Your old man is really well-informed. ”

Princess Shouyang smiled and said: "I am not as well-behaved as you when I was your age, at that time there was a small gate near Danfeng Gate that was in disrepair all year round, and I specially taught the palace people to sprinkle grass seeds there, and grow grass to cover the door, so that even if you sneak out, you will not be discovered." ”

Su Ying was dumbfounded when she heard it: "It turns out that the door is your ......"

Princess Shouyang's face wrinkled together with a smile: "Why, do you know that door?" Isn't it ......" with the innocence and cunning of a girl in her eyes: "You also slipped out from there?" ”

"yes." Su Ying was a little regretful: "It's a pity that I only went out once and was discovered by Duanniang, and that door had already been sealed by the people of the Shanggong Bureau." ”

Princess Shouyang said: "That's okay, haven't you been a queen, you can also go out of the palace with your phoenix seal and dress up as a little palace e." ”

Duan Niang was about to stand up and plead guilty, but when she heard Princess Shouyang's words, her lips trembled slightly: "The Queen Mother and the princess are really ...... Temperament is like-minded. ”

In the past, Su Ying thought that the people in this palace were all well-behaved and serious, only she was an outlier, well, maybe Pei Zhao, who was taken by her, was also half an outlier? Today she realized that Princess Shouyang was just as playful as her, even more than her. The two of them felt a sense of pity for each other, and unconsciously chatted all afternoon.

Since he knew that Princess Shouyang could talk to him very well, Su Ying said excitedly: "When it is time for the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, let's go out to see the lanterns together!" The lamp in the palace is boring, Aman, do you say it's okay? ”

Of course, Aman applauded, maybe because of Princess Shouyang, Duanniang didn't say anything. She happily had dinner in Qingyun Palace, and then returned to Changle Palace satisfied.

From a distance, I saw Pei Zhao's Luan driving in front of Changle Palace, a column of palace people holding handstoves and other colored utensils standing quietly, Tong He was slightly scorched in place, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her:

"The old slave greets the Queen Mother, Your Majesty is waiting to greet you inside, please let the Queen Mother go in quickly."

Pei Zhao is here?

Su Ying's heart was very complicated, she was a little annoyed that she didn't return to the palace early and taught Pei Zhaobai to wait so long; and some rejoiced to see him; And this joy is accompanied by some melancholy and sadness.

She has been very hypocritical recently, and she doesn't even like this appearance, let alone Pei Zhao?

Su Ying slowly walked into the hall, it was very quiet, there was no palace people, Pei Zhao was wearing a dark robe, and he was sitting quietly by the window.

Duan Niang and Yun Luo were very interested, and they stopped walking in front of the hall with Su Jin. There were only two of them left in the huge hall, Pei Zhao had a faint smile on his face, and Su Ying lowered his head to avoid his gaze: "How long have you been waiting?" Why don't you send someone to call me? ”

Pei Zhao said: "You didn't wait long, are you having fun in Qingyun Palace?" ”

That's nature! She smiled and talked to Pei Zhao about how tacit Princess Shouyang had with her, how young and old Aman was, and how young and old she was, and she wanted to go to the wine shop to see the girl at a young age, Pei Zhao kept listening with a smile, as if what she said was so important.

At the end, Su Ying told him: "I have already told them, I will take them out of the palace to see the lanterns on the night of the first year, do you have any favorite gadgets?" I'll buy it for you. ”

When she said this, the corners of her lips were extremely bright, and her eyes were staring at him brightly, as if she was coaxing a child, Pei Zhao had never thought of him like this in the past twenty-five years, and couldn't help but smile slightly: "You don't need to buy it, I'll go with you." ”

Su Ying couldn't help but let out an "ah", when Pei Zhao talked to her about leaving the palace on the night of Shangyuan, she only thought that Pei Zhao was trying to make her happy. I want to know, how can he get out of the palace? If he leaves the palace, how will the people waiting under Xuande still pay homage to Long Yan?

Pei Zhao probably saw her thoughts, and said lightly: "You don't have to worry about the side, just take care of your spirits and wait to see the lanterns." ”

Pei Zhao has always been a person who says nothing, and Su Ying knew that this matter was settled, so he had to nod and say, "I know you won't lie to me." ”

Pei Zhao smiled and took out the basket from his arms: "You're right, now I'll play the tune you like, okay?" ”

He played the tune that Su Ying could hear that day, and he played it very well. When the beauty of the day danced, this piece was played with seven or eight kinds of musical instruments such as the huqin and pipa.

Pei Zhao is really smart, he learned to play this tune in just a few days. She thought a little gloomily, or perhaps, it was Rong Meiren who taught her well, and he was willing to learn, so he learned so quickly.

In the melodious music, she looked at Pei Zhao's gentle eyebrows, and her thoughts drifted far away. She originally wanted to take Aman out for a Shangyuan Lantern Festival without Pei Zhao, even if Pei Zhao was not by her side, the festival would still be very happy.

But now she realized that the self-righteous joy in the past was fake, and the moment Pei Zhao said that he was going with him, she was really happy.

In the final analysis, she was still reluctant to let go of Pei Zhao.
