Outside the door came a young man's voice, which was clear and beautiful: "Princess, are you okay with your rest?" ”

Ye Yufu was full of doubts about who this person was, so he hurriedly asked, "I don't know who Your Excellency is?" ”

The man chuckled: "It's reckless, I'm the owner of this house, named Wenxi." ”

Wenxi? Ye Yufu felt a little familiar when she heard this name, and finally remembered it after thinking about it in her mind. Isn't this the waiter of the Ministry of Rites who has recently been highly used by the emperor?

This person won the first place in last year's imperial examination, and I heard that he was just a little-known person from the countryside, but he overwhelmed the literati in the capital who had already become famous at that time. For a time, the scenery is unlimited. It was deeply reused by the emperor, and in just one year, he changed from a waiter in the Hanlin Academy of the fifth grade to a waiter of the rite department of the second grade.

Wen Xi is actually not only famous among the people, but also among the concubines in the deep palace.

It is said that he painted a peerless painting, and the best thing he did was to draw a picture of that beauty. The beauty in the picture of the beauty he painted couldn't see any illusion between her smile and smile. It's like a real person trapped in a painting.

And his beauty pictures are even more difficult to find, and only a few paintings that have been circulated have been speculated to sky-high prices. And one of them was in the palace, Ye Yufu once again unintentionally saw it, and her heart was even more shocked.

The painting is a young woman, dressed in a white gauze dress, her hair is black and smooth as satin, with a goose egg face, willow leaves, curved eyebrows, almond round eyes, cherry mouth, and the most vivid thing is a few tears under those beautiful eyes.

A picture of a beautiful teary-eyed beauty looks like a painting, and the woman in the painting looks sad and her eyes are full of great grief, which makes Ye Yufu, who is also a woman, feel distressed when she sees it.

Therefore, many concubines in the palace took great pains to ask Wen Xi to paint a picture for themselves, but in the end, no one asked for it.

Ye Yufu looked around and looked at the decoration in the house again, and it was really magnificent, and it was from a person with a very high aesthetic style.

"Look up for a long time, it turns out to be Lord Wen, it's inconvenient to stand outside and talk, please come in." Ye Yufu got up from the bed as she spoke, then stroked her wrinkled skirt and went to open the door.

When the door opened, he saw a very young and handsome man, but the man was actually more like a teenager.

Wen Xi is not tall, about the same height as Ye Yufu. The complexion is a healthy wheat color, and the eyes are big, round and bright, which makes people feel good when they look at it. This is like the "ghost squire" in the mouth of the people in the palace, but it is more accurate to say that it is a "child squire".

Wen Xi watched Ye Yufu open the door and stared at his face vigorously, and he knew it in his heart, and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness Princess, aren't you also a person who judges people by their appearance?" Look down on me as a child? ”

Ye Yufu realized her gaffe at this time, and hurriedly explained with a burst of shame: "Lord Wen misunderstood, I just see that you are still young, and it is not the same as what I heard before. ”

Wen Xi wasn't really angry, after all, his milky appearance had not dried, and no one could contact the famous Wen Shilang in the capital.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, are those old men in the palace saying that I am insidious and cunning, and I will only confuse the emperor with clever words if I don't learn anything on weekdays. behaves vulgarly and looks ugly, so he never dares to show his face in the court. Wen Xi spoke very quickly, and his face was calm and accustomed to these infamy.

Ye Yufu couldn't stop laughing in her heart, this little Wen is really a rare straightforward character, there are people in this world who will scold themselves so hard.

"How could it be, I think there are a few people in the court who dare to provoke Master Wen's temper. Don't stand in the doorway, come in and sit. ”

When Wen Xi heard this, he really sat down without being polite at all. As soon as I sat down, I picked up a piece of pastry on the table and ate it in three or two bites.

After a while, he said to Ye Yufu: "Your Royal Highness the princess, don't mind, I am used to being free on weekdays, and I see the emperor like this." ”

Ye Yufu smiled brightly, didn't care about Wen Xi's rudeness, and said gently: "This is in the adult's mansion, of course, you can do whatever you want." You don't need to apologize to me at all. ”

Wen Xi kept staring at Ye Yufu with big eyes staring straight at her face while she was talking.

Ye Yufu was a little uncomfortable stared at, so she asked, "Is there something on my face?" ”

Wen Xi listened but didn't answer, just said "En", and then pretended to be deep and nodded up and down with his hands on his shoulders: "The name is worthy of it, the name is worthy of it." ”

Ye Yufu was now completely confused by this young young waiter, so she could only follow his words and ask, "What's wrong?" ”

"Actually, I've always wanted to meet your Royal Highness, Princess. After all, my pleasure is to see all the beauties in the world, and the princess you are one of the two beauties in Beijing, so I have already seen Tian Ningshuang in one of the beautiful inniss, but I never enter the palace when you stay in the palace all day, so it is difficult to see. Seeing it today really shocked me! ”

"This ......" is such a young boy, and he is ashamed to say that he likes to look at beauties, which really makes Ye Yufu laugh.

Wen Xi didn't seem to see Ye Yufu's speechless expression at this time, and then said to himself: "It's good now, you actually came to Jiangnan." God help me. Your Royal Highness Princess, can I paint a portrait of you! ”

Ye Yufu originally wanted to think about it before making a decision, but in the face of Wen Xi's aggressive momentum, she had to nod helplessly: "Yes...... So when do you start drawing, I'll prepare. ”

Wen Xi shook his hand firmly and stood up: "No! I've got you in mind! Go draw now! ”

When he said this, he ran away as soon as he slipped away, leaving Ye Yufu with a helpless face.

At this time, Ziye Yufu was also completely sleepy, and originally wanted to ask Wen Xi about the situation in Jiangnan, but it turned out that people ran as fast as cats.

This Wenfu is located by the river, and after crossing the bridge is the most prosperous street in the south of the Yangtze River, you can see the beautiful scenery completely different from that of Beijing as soon as you go out.

Ye Yufu has long heard of the beauty of Jiangnan, and now that she finally came to this trip, she was even more itchy in her heart.

Yan'er, this girl didn't know where to run, she didn't find it after looking for a long time. On the contrary, I saw Ruan Tian when I was walking along the promenade of Wenfu.

Ruan Tian was sitting on a stone bench by the long pavilion, holding his chin in his hands silently. Seeing Ye Yufu, she hurriedly got up respectfully.

Ye Yufu smiled at Ruan Day: "How does it feel to return to this place this time." ”

Ruan Tian's eyes were stained with a trace of sadness, and his voice was clear and long: "The current Jiangnan is similar to the previous appearance, and it is still beautiful. It's beautiful and intoxicating. ”

Ye Yufu knew that Ruan Day's heart was full of sadness now. So he said, "Yes, no one will want to leave such a good place, so go out for a walk with me." I've never been to this place. ”

Ruan Tian looked slightly stunned for a few seconds, and then returned to a calm appearance.

The streets of Jiangnan are somewhat similar to those in the capital, but they are not quite the same. The most in the capital is one luxury store after another, and there are very few roadside vendors, but Jiangnan is full of hawkers buying all kinds of bizarre gadgets, which makes people dazzled.

This Jiangnan woman is different from the open and free in Beijing, most of them bow their heads when they go out, and some are shy and cover half of their faces with veils.

At this point, it is also more convenient for Ye Yufu to go out on the street.

Although Ruan Tian is not as lively and alert as Yan'er, he is familiar with this place in Jiangnan and has taken Ye Yufu to see a lot of things.

Towards dusk, many vendors who sell their goods during the day have withdrawn their stalls, but many new stalls have appeared to buy beautiful river lanterns.

"Tonight is the River Lantern Festival, do you want to go see it?"

"Of course you have to go, I heard that the lanterns put out at the River Lantern Festival every year, if you make a wish on it, it will come true."

Ye Yufu was tired of walking, sitting on the stone bench under the tree, and the sound of a girl passing by was discussing in her ears.

Ruan Tian saw the curious look on Ye Yufu's face, and smiled: "Does the princess want to put the river lantern?" ”

Ye Yufu's eyes had already been firmly locked by the beautiful and delicate river lamps on the ground. nodded heavily at Ruan Tian. Then he picked up the river lantern with an excited face.

As night fell, the streets were twice as crowded as the day, each of them holding river lanterns of different shapes and colors with a smile on their faces.

Ye Yufu bought a river lantern with a pink lotus, and the petals on it looked lifelike, which made her love it.

Releasing river lanterns is a tribute to the loss of loved ones, and it is also a blessing to the living relatives. On the one hand, Ye Yufu is to mourn his deceased grandfather Song Mingqing, and on the other hand, to pray for Ye Duanli, who is getting worse and worse.

The little river lanterns are the deepest feelings in people's hearts.

Ruan Tian held a simple square river lantern in his hand and said to Ye Yufu, who was holding his head slightly high: "Princess, you can let go of the river lantern after the parade on the street." ”

Ye Yufu looked at the procession on the street, and her heart was unprecedentedly quiet, as if only at this time could she leave behind all the troubles and pains in the daytime.

The parade lasted about half an hour, and then with a loud bang, fireworks burst into the air.

The colorful fireworks were like flames, rising into the air at high speed and then exploding like flames. An obsession that everyone on the street can't help but look at.

Ruan Tian silently wiped her tears, remembering that her favorite thing when she was a child was this river lantern festival, and every time at this time, her mother would hold her to watch fireworks and release river lanterns.

But now things are no longer ......

She was gradually blinded by tears, and the colorful fireworks made her sadder even more.

"Princess, the slave is a little uncomfortable, can you go and rest for a while?" Ruan Riqiang resisted the urge to cry, and tried his best to speak to Ye Yufu in a quiet whisper.

Ye Yufu saw that her face was not good, and let her rest after a few warm words.

The fireworks in the sky bloomed in waves and waves, and finally disappeared. But as it disappeared, the river lantern in everyone's hands was gradually lit.

Ye Yufu picked a small riverside, tidied up her skirt, and then squatted down, looked at the jumping firelight with soft eyes, and said in her mouth: "I hope that after returning to the palace, everything can return to normal." I hope my father's body can get better, and I hope my mother can be happy. ”

After saying this, she was silent for a long time, then closed her eyes and continued, "Hope...... I hope that I and Yugui can be the same as before. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, before he could put on the lights, Ye Yufu's cold voice came from behind Ye Yufu: "What if I say no." ”
