Chapter Forty-Nine: The Fragrance of Cold Plums Under the Snow

The winter nights were chilly, and the north wind outside the house swept across the treetops, bringing a whining sound. Fastest update access: щщщ.79XS.сОΜ.

In the main house of Fairview Garden, it is warm.

In each of the four corners of the room, there were two small smoked baskets, in which were burned fine silver frost charcoals. Ling Miao had already put on a light gold 'colored' placket jacket embroidered with blue grass patterns, and the cuffs and neckline were each rolled with a circle of white 'color' rabbit 'hair'. She still had the moisture in her hair that had not dried, and she only wore it loose over her shoulders. She sat cross-legged on the large smoker cage in the middle of the inner room, and in front of her was a table with a red sandalwood carved 'flower' marble surface, on which was placed a purple sand tea set, and a pot of hot tea was steaming hot, steaming out a thick dampness.

Xiao Li sat on the chair against the wall, watching Ling Miao pour tea intently, her movements stretched and elegant, as if she was not facing an uninvited stranger on a winter night, but a friend who had known each other for many years.

"Miss Ling is really a 'girl' who is very different."

Ling Miao raised her eyes, handed a cup of tea to Xiao Li, and said with a smile: "I am praising me when I am the prince." ”

After taking the tea, Xiao Li bowed his head, "It is indeed a compliment." ”

In fact, Xiao Li has never looked down on the high-ranking 'doors' and noble 'women' in the capital. These 'girl' children are pampered from birth, although they are all 'fine' in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and their demeanor and appearance never make people find faults, but they are all the same. Moreover, in front of people, they are gentle, dignified, or innocent and coquettish, and it is another description to turn their backs on people. Such a 'woman' made him disgusted.

Ling Miao was different.

From the first time he was so sad on the cliff of Baihe Mountain that he wanted to lose his vitality, to the decisiveness and ruthlessness when he dealt with Song Rongrong later, and then to the calm and calm of the British Mansion, every time he saw him, he could always feel novel.

It stands to reason that Ling Miao's 'temperament' should be resolute, but why did she meet for the first time because she was so embarrassed that she committed suicide?

Xiao Li raised his eyebrows and shook the tea cup gently, the tea was clear and clear, and it was even more blue in the candlelight. After taking a sip, I felt that the entrance was clear, and in addition to the aroma of tea, it seemed to have another aroma.

"What kind of tea is this?" Putting down the teacup, Xiao Li asked.

Ling Miao also poured a cup for herself, put it under her nose and sniffed it, and said with a smile: "Tea is just ordinary tea, and the water that only makes tea is the snow water on the plum 'flower' collected after the heavy snowfall a year ago, with some spices. ”

"Oh? Can you add spices to tea? Xiao Li had been fighting for many years, but after all, he was only in his twenties, and when he heard Ling Miao say this, he couldn't help but be curious, "I've never heard of it." ”

Ling Miao's smile became brighter and brighter, "Drinking tea is just to quench your thirst, and it naturally changes with the taste of tea drinkers." It's like this incense......"

She pointed to a delicate white 'jade' small incense burner placed on the Eight Treasures Pavilion, and a faint fragrance was emerging from it, clear and elegant, like a cold plum under the snow.

"This incense is also my own fragrance, and it is just for my liking."

Xiao Li nodded, "Miss Ling is high-minded." People live a lifetime, and they should do what they want. ”

He clasped his palms together, and he actually felt that Ling Miao's words were very much in his mind.

However, the question in his heart was still not solved, so he leaned forward, got very close to Ling Miao, and chuckled: "I just wonder if Miss Ling can solve the 'puzzle' for this king, how can she guess my identity?" ”

His background is extremely complicated, and he has always walked in two identities in order to act, and he has never gone wrong. I didn't expect to be called through by Ling Miao, who had only seen a few faces.

Ling Miao looked at him with a smile on her face, "So is the prince also willing to solve the 'puzzle' for the little 'girl', why does the dignified prince pretend to be such a strong man?" ”

Xiao Li lowered his eyes, and when he raised it again, his previous smile was gone, and his eyes were full of coldness. Ling Miao only felt a 'flower' in front of her, but she didn't see what kind of action he was doing, and the person had been restrained by him.

His slender hand clasped around her neck, as if he could crush her white 'fine' neck with a slight force.

"So, does Miss Ling say yes or not?" Xiao Li's eyes contained a storm, and the whole aura was fully opened, and the overwhelming killing intention attacked Ling Miao!

Ling Miao's gaze met his, and he didn't dodge it at all, he looked at him for a long time, and smiled, "The prince won't kill me." ”

She doesn't know much about Xiao Li, but she has a very magical intuition, this Xiao Li is the same person as her.

The eyes of the two 'met', and the sparks 'sparked' everywhere, and no one refused to dodge first.

Suddenly, Xiao Li smiled, like the ice and snow melting, like the sky breaking through the stratus clouds.

Ling Miao also smiled, like a 'spring' and 'flower' blooming, like a pearl faint.

"I have a last resort. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will not hide a word from you. ”

Xiao Li looked at her 'flower' smile, and for some reason, the words rushed out of his mouth.

Ling Miao's eyes drooped, her long eyelashes trembled twice, and then she raised her eyebrows and raised her eyebrows: "Then, Ling Miao is looking forward to that day." ”

"So, Miss Ling, can you tell me where I 'exposed' my flaws?"

Ling Miao was silent, and stretched out her hand to point to the white 'jade' incense burner over there.

Xiao Li frowned, his extremely elegant facial features were full of doubts and confusion, obviously, he didn't understand what Ling Miao meant.

"Didn't the prince notice that he had a vague fragrance on his body?" Ling Miao shook her fingers, "Ordinary people may not be able to smell it, but I have liked perfume since I was a child, and I am particularly sensitive to fragrance. If you distinguish it carefully, what the prince has on him is this kind of cold plum fragrance. ”

"Hanmeixiang?" Xiao Li's face became ugly.

When he was young, he did have body fragrance on his body, and the more he practiced, the stronger the fragrance became.

It's just that his master found a ghost doctor from Jiangnan to remove it for him. Over the years, even after bathing, he hasn't smelled it again. Unexpectedly, after two or three contacts with Ling Miao, she was asked to smell it.

Since she can, will she also be exposed when she meets someone who is as good at perfume as she is in the future?

Xiao Li's eyebrows were gloomy.

"Lord Wang, don't worry." Ling Miao took out a small sachet out of nowhere, "The aroma is not obvious, and the body fragrance is mixed with a 'medicine' fragrance, I think someone has used a 'medicine' to get rid of it." It's just that this kind of body fragrance is innate, and no matter how good the 'medicine' is, it can only be covered, but not eradicated. The two scents are mixed together, which makes it even more unique. The last time the prince broke in, I had already paid attention. Today in the British government, it was confirmed. ”

"In this way, I actually sent my handle to Miss Ling in person." Xiao Li smiled, his eyes burning, staring at the sachet in Ling Miao's hand.

Ling Miao was not pretentious, and threw the sachet to Xiao Li, "This is what I made when I had nothing to do, a serious snow and cold plum fragrance." The prince is deserved, and if someone asks, he can also cover it up. ”

"Why help me?"

Ling Miao smiled slyly, "If I say I don't want anything in return, will the prince believe it or not?" ”

"In this case, this king has thanked Miss Ling." Xiao Li saw that her appearance was stunning, and she seemed to have a dazzling sense of 'force' beauty in the candlelight, and suddenly had the heart of teasing, stood up, covered her face with a mask, pushed open the window and flew out, and disappeared in an instant. Ling Miao never thought that he didn't play his cards according to the routine, and while he was dumbfounded, he only heard a thin voice in his ears, but he laughed.

Knowing that this is the kung fu of thousands of miles of sound transmission, it requires extremely deep internal force. She could hear the voice clearly, but the rest of the people in the Fairview Garden would not be awakened. My heart moved, this King of Yijun has such skills?

originally thought that this young prince would line up troops to fight, and he was good at kung fu on horseback, but he didn't expect his kung fu to be so good. And after several contacts, this Xiao Li is very different from himself. It seems that she, the backer, is the right one.

Whether it is Xiao Qian, Huo Fu, or the emperor who is the ultimate target of her revenge, it is not something that she can shake as a small 'daughter' of the Marquis of Wuding.

If you want to avenge the blood of the Wei family, you must find a strong backer to rely on.

Ling Miao knew that she had found it. She stood in the room, letting the window open wide, and the cold wind blew into the room, blowing through the thin cotton clothes on her body, but in a moment she was cold all over. She didn't react, just standing silently. Lowering his eyes and looking at the palm of his hand, there was a blood-red patch that had been pierced by long nails.

"Hove, just wait. The first one is you! ”

She muttered to herself, the corners of her mouth curled, and she closed her eyes.

At this time, Huo Fu didn't know that he had been remembered by Ling Miao. She was walking around in a 'fine' courtyard in the Seven Princes' Mansion, looking out from time to time.

"Hasn't His Highness come back yet?"

A pretty maid shook her head, "I told the second 'door' outside, if His Royal Highness comes back, someone will definitely come to tell the concubine." ”

Hove bit her lip and waved the maid out.

The maid looked respectful, but turned around and pouted. This Concubine Huo Shu also takes herself too seriously. It's just the status of a concubine, but there is a shelf bigger than the concubine. At this time, even His Highness's whereabouts have to be known everywhere, what a bad person really doesn't know!

Huo Fu didn't know that he was looked down upon by a maid, so he only walked back and forth a few times, and saw that outside the dark courtyard, there was no figure of Xiao Qian at all.

And in the room, a good table of wine has long since disappeared from the heat.

Today is her birthday!

Xiao Qian obviously promised that he would come back early to celebrate her birthday.

Why, that Li Wan is sick today!

is obviously just a cousin, but she wants to live in this prince's mansion, Li Wan and Li Guifei's intentions are simply known to passers-by!

Hove's eyes were hot, and tears fell.

She thought that Xiao Qian really loved herself. How sincere he was then!

Those affectionate words still echo in her ears now.

It's just that as soon as the General's Mansion fell, he took himself into the Prince's Mansion as promised before, but not as a concubine, not even a side concubine. Only one concubine, how embarrassing!

The prince's mansion, some decent old people can look down on her!
