A few days ago, just because the emperor praised it: This year's peaches are good! Taoyuan welcomes the nobles of various palaces every day.

The old eunuch guarding the garden bent his waist so that his face was almost on the ground, and he cried and said, "Oh, Miss Qiulu, the old slave really didn't lie to you. The peaches in this garden are all here, and the six princes and the third princess are indeed picking the peaches from these trees! ”

Qiu Lu looked at the thin and green peaches in front of her, and her face turned blue with anger: "Then you will let me take these broken peaches to Niangniang?" Do you know that Concubine Hui is going to give the Queen Mother her old man! You don't want a dog's life, our mother still has to be faced! ”

The old eunuch rubbed his hands, drooped his head, and was so worried that he wanted to bare his hair: "Miss Qiulu doesn't know, it stands to reason that it will take another three or five days for the peaches to begin to ripen." Who knows that in the past few days, each palace has sent someone to pick a basket, and before it is ripe, the better ones have been taken away, and the rest is not these green things. It's not too late for you to come, in a few days, I'm afraid you won't even be able to see the shadow of the peach! ”

"Are you complaining that I'm late?" Qiu Lu couldn't believe it.

According to the solar terms of previous years, peaches do not begin to ripen until July, which is only the end of June, who will come so early?

Besides, every year when the peaches are ripe, someone sends them to each palace, and only occasionally a master will send someone in his palace to pick some and go back to taste it on a whim, but that won't stop the garden!

The old eunuch hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare, the old slave doesn't mean that." ”

But what it meant, he didn't know. Can you still complain about the emperor? Who made him say it so casually! Or complain about the six princes and the three princesses, God knows why they suddenly became big and sweet when they picked unripe peaches and went back?

In short, the old eunuch couldn't say anything about his grievances, so he could only stand there and listen to the scolding.

Qiu Lu scolded enough, but also found that it was useless, and left a sentence: "You just wait for the mother to fall!" Then he twisted himself and left.

The little eunuch in Taoyuan saw that people were far away, and he didn't know which corner he came out of, so he stuck to the old eunuch and asked, "Master, what can I do?" If Concubine Hui blames her, will you ......?"

The old eunuch straightened up and snorted softly: "Hmph! Could it be something? They have to have a reason to condemn me, right? Did I pick the peaches or did I eat them? I don't know anything. I just have to watch the peach orchard and don't let the beasts spoil it! The rest, that's the master's business, it's none of our business! ”

Huining Palace.

Concubine Hui looked at herself with exquisite makeup in this bronze mirror, and couldn't help but smile: "Mama, how old am I, isn't it a joke that you still wear such a fancy hairpin for me, so that people can see it?" ”

Mama smiled and said, "Niangniang is in the prime of her youth, so she will be old." It's good for the old slave to look like this, and the queen mother also likes bright ones. ”

Concubine Hui smiled and didn't speak again, turned her head and asked, "Why hasn't Qiu Lu come back yet?" Didn't you say to pick a few peaches and send them to the Queen Mother for a while? What time has it been, and why hasn't there been a figure yet? ”

As soon as the words fell, Qiu Lu came back angrily.

The smile on Concubine Hui's face faded, she lowered her head and fiddled with her armor, and asked, "What's the matter, didn't you say that you went to pick peaches, why did you come back empty-handed?" ”

Qiu Lu was so angry that she stomped her feet and ordered someone to bring up those green peaches: "Niangniang, look! ”

Concubine Hui saw it, and her face suddenly turned blue.

-

Changting Palace.

Yu Bao held his chin with two small hands and sat on the threshold in a daze. Helian Jiaran on the side was poking the ant nest in the corner with a stick, and when he turned his head, he saw his sister looking sad and puzzled, throwing away the wooden stick and running over: "Yubao, what's wrong with you, do you have something on your mind?" ”

Yubao turned his head to look at the carefree sixth brother, and the little man sighed, what should she say?

The peaches in Taoyuan have been almost picked by everyone, and it is too obvious for her to pick them back and secretly replace them. But if you don't do that, there will be no peaches to eat! What's more, the second father's blood still stinks!

Although Wang Jinzhong and the others carry themselves every time, Yubao's little nose is sensitive! She thought that the peaches soaked in Tianchi water could get rid of the smell in the blood of the second father, and the fact was that it did work, but who knew that the peaches were suddenly gone.

Ay! It's annoying!

Seeing that his sister was still worried, Helian Jiaran patted his chest and said, "Yubao, if there is anything, just tell the sixth brother, the sixth brother will definitely help you!" ”

"Hey!" Yubao sighed again.

Helian Jiaran was a little anxious: "Yubao, don't just sigh, you are talking!" ”

Yu Bao frowned and said, "Sixth brother, the peaches in Taoyuan are almost gone!" ”

Yes? Helian Jiaran opened his mouth in surprise. He thought that the third sister had encountered something terrible, but he was worried that there would be no peaches to eat. What a kid!

Sitting next to Yu Bao, he coaxed: "Don't be sad Yu Bao, there will be peaches next year!" Moreover, now that there are no peaches, we will have apples, pears, watermelons, and in a few days there will be grapes, and there will be so many delicious things in the palace! Even if there is no one in the palace, Zhuangzi will send it! ”

"Zhuangzi?!" Yu Bao's eyes lit up.

It would be great if you had a Zhuangzi, you can plant as many peaches as you want, and you can transplant the peach trees in the mountains! Right! Transplant a peach tree!

As for the second father, I will think of another way to see if the apples and pears work, but Yubao still likes to eat peaches the most!

Yubao looked at the sun, it was almost noon, and he thought that the second father should come back.

These days, Yu Bao has had dinner in Changting Palace, and early the next morning, he waited at the gate of Changting Palace before dawn, waiting for the eunuch to open the door.

After doing this twice, Ye Starling was a little distressed, and instructed the eunuch who was keeping vigil to invite the third princess in as soon as he saw him, and there was no need to report it.

Wang Jinzhong couldn't help laughing when he listened to it.

Ye Starling: "What are you laughing at?" ”

Wang Jinzhong: "The slave is happy." Since the third princess entered the palace, the master has more fireworks on you. ”

Ye Starling glared at him and said nothing.

Wang Jinzhong was really happy.

In the past, the master was like a tool without emotion and temperature, entering the palace every day before dawn to help the emperor deal with political affairs, and leaving the palace at night when the palace door was keyed, but never spending the night in Changting Palace.

These days, the master has not been out of the palace for a long time.

Yubao took the freshly squeezed peach juice and walked cautiously to the main hall, there are not many peaches left, so you must not spill them! Yu Bao kept telling himself in his heart to be careful, be careful!

Who knows, as soon as he stepped into the gate of the main hall, he was knocked over by a eunuch who came in a hurry! Not only was the peach juice spilled on the ground, but Yubao was also knocked to the ground, and the little hands and skirts were covered with peach juice mud.
