After a few days of sunshine, it rained lightly again. ≧ > Bayi Chinese ≦<≤.≤8<1

After a little rain, Xie Ning breathed a sigh of relief, it was really hot and uncomfortable a few days ago, but today I got up early in the morning, and I felt that my breath was smooth and my heart was calm.

As soon as Fang Shanggong was able to get up, he came to thank her, Xie Ning hurriedly asked Qingmei to help her, and after saying a few words, he quickly asked someone to help her back to the house to rest.

"I don't lack you here, thank you for your kindness, and I should take care of my body as soon as possible."

Looking at Fang Shanggong's complexion, Xie Ning was really not at ease.

After all, Fang Shanggong is not young, and if he is placed in an ordinary family outside, he is already a grandmother, and no matter how hard he tries, maybe his great-grandmother will have hope.

One winter and one summer, they are all obstacles.

Fang Shanggong shouldn't be so tired, she should be allowed to rest more.

Qinghe listened to Xie Ning say this, and said to Xie Ning: "Master, don't say that." Although Fang Shanggong's illness is due to hard work, Master Li also said that the weather has been bad recently, and there are many people who have fallen ill in the palace. People like Fang Shanggong and Zhou Gonggong have something to weigh on them, but the more they live, the more energetic they become. If there's nothing to do, it's going to collapse all at once. Did you know? Last year, during the Chinese New Year, there was a Liu Huanqi who said goodbye to the old people, Lord Liu? ”

"Yes." Xie Ning had seen this person once, although he was nearly seventy years old, his waist was straight, his voice was loud, and he was a spirited old minister. Last year, he went to the old man's fold, and the emperor kept him, and he went again, and if it was repeated, the emperor allowed it.

"You see Lord Liu's spirit at that time, right? But the day before yesterday, I heard someone from the Imperial Medical Department say that Lord Liu has been old for half a year, his eyes are dazzled, his waist can't be straightened, and he doesn't even know people very well. ”

"Really?" Shainin was really taken aback.

"The slave maid also listened to the people from the Imperial Doctor's Department, and the Liu family has invited the imperial doctor several times, saying that they are afraid that Boss Liu will not survive this year. There are many people, there are officials to do, there is something to do, then the dragon and the tiger are more nourishing than taking the tonic. If you have nothing to do and no official duties, you won't have a head in those days, and you won't have any spirit at all. Let's just talk about Fang Shanggong, when you didn't serve the master, what do you think she looks like? ”

Xie Ning thought forward, what was Fang Shanggong like when he first went to the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion to teach her needlework?

The impression is not very clear, in short, it seems to be two words.

Old.

But now Fang Shanggong does look younger and more energetic than it was then.

Xie Ning smiled: "Maybe you're right. ”

"So the master, don't say that you want Fang Shanggong to unload his errand and go to recuperate. Counting all the people up and down in Yong'an Palace, there are not many people who love the little masters so sincerely as Fang Shang Palace. If you want her to resign from her post and no longer serve the little masters, she must be very sad. ”

This is indeed true, Fang Shanggong really cares about the eldest prince, not the kind of slave who is loyal to the master, it is indeed true love.

"By the way, Ying Yan and Yuyao haven't come back yet?"

"The eldest prince just sent a word that he can't come back for dinner, and the princess is the same."

Xie Ning glanced at the rain curtain outside the window, nodded and said, "I forgot, it's really inconvenient to toss back and forth when it's raining." You ask someone to say to the dining room, add an eight-treasure pot to Ying Yan and Shuying, and add a stewed crispy pear and a white jade ball soup to Yuyao and Gan Girl. ”

Qinghe replied with a smile: "The slave and maid are going here, you just have to rest assured, no one dares to snub the eldest prince and princess, and the people in the dining room can be careful." ”

Because of the rain, Princess Yuyao stayed in the study of Yunguanglou for lunch. The palace people set the dining table, and the eunuch in the dining room said respectfully: "The concubine Niangniang will reward the princess with a piece of stewed crisp pears with rock sugar, and a piece of white jade balls soup." ”

Princess Yuyao got up and bowed, and said thank you to Concubine Niangniang.

The eunuch opened the lid of the cup, and the fragrant and sweet heat rose. Translucent pears are soaked in a shallow soup, the flesh of the pears is peeled and the cores are peeled and simmered, the color and shape are like amber, and the fragrance of pears has been drilled into the nostrils.

The white jade balls soup is actually tofu soup, the tofu is cut into round balls, and if you look closely, there are even thin patterns on the balls.

The carving on the tofu is a delicate job, and the snow-white balls float in the light blue soup, which makes people feel that the heat is completely gone, and the index finger is moved.

Gan Xiyun boasted: "The imperial kitchen's methods are really amazing. It's a pity that Sister Joe is not here, and she also specifies that she loves to eat this. ”

"What's so hard about that? When she comes, let the dining room do it again. ”

Qiao Shutang was unwell and didn't enter the palace for the past two days, and Li Zhang didn't come because of the rain, and there were only two of them in the study, which made it even more deserted.

The two had dinner, and after noon, they were supposed to learn the piano, but because of the rain, they changed to practicing characters. As soon as Mr. Yang went out, Princess Yuyao quickly let go of the pen and rubbed her wrist, and when she turned her head, she saw that Gan Xiyun was not writing, and was looking out the window with her cheeks in her hands.

Princess Yuyao thought that someone was coming outside, so she turned her head to look, but there was nothing.

Outside, there was only a continuous drizzle, and water droplets dripped down the eaves of the palace. In the large vat in the courtyard is planted with water lilies, and the lotus flowers have already bloomed twice, and the green leaves look particularly delicate like wax.

Although this summer rain scene is moving, Princess Yuyao feels that it is not worth watching.

Does Gan Xiyun have something on his mind?

Princess Yuyao wanted to know something, so naturally someone rushed to inquire for her.

Gan Xiyun received a letter from home yesterday, from Juanzhou. I received another one today, but it was from her father.

Princess Yuyao was addicted to writing letters, and she also paid special attention to the letters of others. Gan Xiyun received two letters in a row, and she was naturally very curious.

Every time she writes and receives letters, Princess Yuyao is very happy.

But Gan Xiyun didn't look so happy.

What is written in the letter?

She asked so straightforwardly, of course Gan Xiyun didn't hide it from her.

"My aunt brought me a letter asking me to study hard, asked me if I lacked anything, and brought me some money."

None of this is a bad thing, and it doesn't make people feel uncomfortable.

That's another letter, isn't it?

Gan Xiyun said softly: "My father's letter said that he has added a son and a daughter this year. Also, let me not cause trouble in the palace and accompany the princess well......"

It is a happy event for Tian Ding to be placed in other people's homes, and it is also a happy event for Gan Xiyun's father, but for her, this is not good news.

Anyway, she didn't count on her father for a long time, whoever he loves to hurt will go, even if there are ten or eight more ones, it has nothing to do with her.

The two children were born to concubines, and the stepmother is such an intolerable person, presumably there will be no peace in the backyard.

She had told herself not to think about those people, but when she saw the detached and unconcerned words on the letter, she was still a little sullen and uncomfortable.

Her father didn't ask her if she had any difficulties in the palace, but he implied that if she won the favor of nobles, she should not forget her roots and remember to bring her relatives.

She already knew that she didn't have a home, and there was no place for her in that home. Although the aunt is good, the uncle's home is not her home.

She didn't know where her home was.

Since there is no family, can that family member be regarded as her relatives?

Princess Yuyao looked at her with a depressed expression, but she didn't know how to persuade her.

has always been the only one who flatters her and makes her happy, and Princess Yuyao doesn't want to see Gan Xiyun so sullen.

She thought for a moment and asked, "Let's go to Nanyuan's study to have fun, shall we?" I heard from my brother that they had changed their riding and shooting this afternoon to chess. ”

Gan Xiyun was taken aback: "This, isn't it okay?" ”

Is there a place like Nanyuan's study that they can go to if they want to?

"It's okay, Taifu won't be here in the afternoon."

Princess Yuyao was jealous of the gray-bearded Taifu, and she met her last time, although the Taifu smiled, but Princess Yuyao just didn't dare to make a mistake in front of him.

As long as Taifu is not there, Princess Yuyao will not be afraid of anyone.

The others didn't have time to scold the princess, but they didn't dare to disobey her.

Gan Xiyun felt that something was wrong, but Princess Yuyao had already ordered someone to prepare, and she was about to go out.

The rain is not heavy, but it is blown by the wind, and the rain goes straight to the person.

Princess Yuyao wore a thin cotton silk cloak embroidered with orchids in snow blue, and the palace people held an umbrella all the way to cover her from the rain. In front of Huaisu Gate, they met another sedan chair.

The palace man whispered: "Princess, it seems to be Cao Shunrong." ”

Without waiting for Princess Yuyao to speak, Cao Shunrong's sedan chair had already avoided the side and let them go first.

Princess Yuyao didn't know how to be polite, she instructed the palace people: "Please pass first." ”

But Cao Shunrong insisted on refusing.

It's raining here, and the delay here is nothing more than everyone drenching together, and after a humble time, Princess Yuyao still left first.

When he arrived at Nanyuan, the eunuch guarding the door didn't dare to stop him at all, and he didn't dare to ask, so he hurriedly went to open the door.

Gan Xiyun returned to Nanyuan's study for the first time, even if she was not small, she didn't dare to gasp for breath at this time.

The palace houses here are more than Yunguang Tower, not one and a half rooms, because it is raining, and there is no one in the courtyard.

Princess Yuyao went to the chess room familiarly. When she looked at the door, she hadn't seen where the eldest prince was sitting, and the people in the house had seen her first.

The eldest prince sat cross-legged on the mat, holding a sunspot for a long time, someone next to him approached and whispered a word, the eldest prince raised his head in some surprise and looked at the door, Princess Yuyao showed a playful smile at him.

Princess Yuyao took Gan Xiyun's hand into the chess room and leaned over to the chessboard to take a look. She doesn't know how to play chess, but she can still see the number of pieces on the chessboard.

There are a lot of whites, and there are fewer sunspots.

"Brother Huang, are you going to lose?"

The eldest prince didn't care about the gains and losses, nodded with a smile, and asked her again, "Why are you here?" ”

"Sir, let us learn the characters by ourselves, I want to come and play with the royal brother."

The eldest prince looked at her, and then looked at Gan Xiyun who was following her: "Do you want to play chess?" I teach you. ”

On the side, Cheng Jinrong took a step closer and said with a smile: "Your Highness has not finished this game, it's not good to give up halfway, why don't I accompany the princess to play a game and give it a try?" ”
