From the moment he walked into the back house of the General's Mansion, Liu He had always been accompanied by Chang Yilang by his side.

No matter whether Liu He is in the main hall or in Huo Guang's study, these Changyi Lang are always inseparable.

At this moment, Liu He, under the escort of these loyal Changyi Lang, returned to the main hall from Huo Guang's study.

The hall was empty, only Huo Xian, who was not messy with makeup and hair, was still pacing back and forth anxiously in the hall.

Liu He stood in the courtyard, frowning, and finally suppressed his disgust for Huo Xian, and reluctantly put on a smiling face.

Huo Guang may indeed be a loyal minister, but unfortunately he was defeated in the hands of Huo Xian and Huo Yu.

"Mother-in-law, where is Cheng Jun at the moment?" Liu He asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, Cheng Jun is already in the Flower Hall at the moment, is Your Majesty going now?"

"Well, then I have to bother my mother-in-law to lead the way in front."

"No!" Huo Xian agreed excitedly.

At this time on weekdays, the General's Mansion must have quieted down, and any slave or maid who dares to make a loud noise will be slapped at least fifty.

But today is a little different, even if it is already late in the morning, the back house is still brightly lit.

Under the hug of Huo Xian and a group of slaves and maids, Liu He walked towards the flower hall of the General's Mansion.

The corridor waist is back, the eaves teeth are pecked, I don't know how many turns under the lights, Liu He finally came to the garden of the back house.

The garden is not too big, and the flower hall is even smaller.

In this season of Chang'an, there are naturally no flowers in the garden, and only the scattered branches of those peaches, plums, apricots and pears remain.

Even the most hardy plum blossoms, at this moment, in the bright moonlight, can only see a few small buds.

The garden only has low walls, and Liu He looks through those sparse branches to see the scenery at a glance.

The lights are dimly yellow, and the window covered with paper in the flower hall reflects the delicate silhouette of a woman.

Looking at this shadow, Liu He's heart trembled.

Unexpectedly, those loyal Changyi Lang around him didn't understand elegance, and they were about to rush in immediately.

Fortunately, he was stopped by Liu He.

"This is the back house of the General's Mansion, there will be no assassins, you can just guard outside this courtyard."

"Yui!" Changyi Lang replied loudly.

"In addition, there is a mother-in-law who is also waiting here for a while."

"Your Majesty, don't you need me to go in with you?" Huo Xian asked with some flattery.

"This is not necessary, unless my mother-in-law is not at ease and is worried that I will do something to Meng Lang." The Son of Heaven smiled, but disgust swelled up in his heart again.

"Where does the concubine dare to think like this, it's just that Chengjun has been arrogant since she was a child, and the concubine is afraid that she will collide with Your Majesty and displease Your Majesty." Huo Xian hurriedly argued.

"It's okay, I think Chengjun has a good temperament, and I love him very much."

Hearing this, Huo Xian was pleasantly surprised, and the excitement on his face was beyond words.

Liu He didn't say anything more to Huo Xian, he left the group outside the courtyard, and turned around and walked towards the flower hall in the courtyard.

……

The garden is not big, and in just a few steps, Liu He came to the outside of the flower hall.

The door of the flower hall is hidden, and through the crack in the door, you can see Huo Chengjun's side face.

Maybe it's been a long time to wait, Huo Chengjun is holding his cheek in one hand, and he is holding a pair of delicate iron scissors in the other hand to cut the lamp grass.

There was some playfulness in the laziness, which made Liu He a little stunned.

Today, it is naturally one of his purposes to make Huo Chengjun devote himself to himself.

But I don't know why, from the moment Liu He took Huo Chengjun's hand outside the door, he was also a little nervous and strange.

This kind of strangeness was also experienced by Liu He a long time ago - like unripe mulberries, sweet and sour, but people can't help but linger.

Liu He raised his left hand and looked at it carefully through the light in the flower hall.

There was obviously nothing on it, but he felt that there were some delicate feelings flowing on it.

Thinking of Huo Chengjun's shyness at that moment, Liu He's nervousness became a little more.

Taking a deep breath, Liu He calmed his heart a little before gently pushing the door and walking in.

Huo Chengjun, who was in a daze, was startled by the arrival of the Son of Heaven, and the scissors in his hand fell on the case, making a "clang" sound. She didn't bother to cut it, so she quickly stood up and hurriedly prepared to salute.

"That's it, there are no outsiders here, so those false courtesies between you and me will be exempted." Liu He said with a slight stammer.

"No." Huo Chengjun bowed his head and answered, and did not speak again.

Liu He walked over and picked up the scissors on the case.

The craftsmanship of this scissors is very exquisite, and it is made into the shape of a crane's beak, which is just right for cutting lamp grass.

"Come, sit across from me." After Liu He finished speaking, he sat down first.

Huo Chengjun slowly sat opposite the Son of Heaven, perhaps too nervous, her hands tugging at her sleeves back and forth.

"You don't have to be nervous, or you'll make me nervous." Liu He said with a smile.

Liu He's words played a role, and Huo Chengjun finally raised his head.

Those beautiful eyes seemed to look at the Son of Heaven with some curiosity and some shyness.

She suddenly discovered that even when the Son of Heaven spoke to her now, he would replace "I" with "I", didn't he want to let herself be too restrained?

Huo Chengjun was not a twisted woman, thinking of this detail, the tension and uneasiness dissipated a lot, and the budding beauty became more dazzling.

"Overseas, to the east of the Han Dynasty, there is a Wa country, have you heard of it before?" Liu He asked.

"I haven't heard of it." Huo Chengjun asked with some curiosity.

"The life of this Japanese country is extremely short, and his behavior is worse than that of barbarians, and he is very introverted, and he does not know how to be polite ......"

Then, Liu He told Huo Chengjun about the Wa Kingdom, mentioning that there is a mountain named Fuji, a flower named Sakura, and a ceremonial name called Lapelbowel......

Liu He said these things that Huo Chengjun had never heard before, she was gradually attracted, and the more she listened, the more fascinated she became, and she involuntarily approached the Son of Heaven.

"But there is also a good thing, that is, in this Japanese country, the marriage of men and women does not need the words of matchmakers, and it is up to them to decide." Liu He made up half-truths and half-truths.

"In this way, isn't it too Meng Lang?" Huo Chengjun exclaimed.

"Although Meng Lang is Meng Lang, it is also a beautiful thing to be able to pick someone you like with each other."

"That's right, then."

Huo Chengjun nodded thoughtfully, completely unaware that the Son of Heaven was already "digging a pit" for her.

"Then do you know how men express their affection for women in this country?" Liu He asked with a smile.

"I haven't seen anyone from this country, how can I know?" Huo Chengjun said angrily.

"When the man of the Japanese kingdom fell in love with the woman he liked, he did not dare to say it directly, and he would say that the moonlight was very beautiful tonight...... The implication was to invite the woman to admire the moon together. ”

"In this way, this Japanese people still have a bit of taste, but ......" Huo Chengjun frowned at the two eyebrows, thought about it and said, "It's just that why do I seem to have heard this sentence somewhere?" ”

Liu He didn't say anything, just looked at Huo Chengjun with a smile, and his face was full of pride after the trick was successful.

Huo Chengjun looked at the Son of Heaven and suddenly remembered.

Didn't the Son of Heaven say this to her just now in that main hall?

Suddenly, Huo Chengjun's whole face turned red with a "swish", a little annoyed but a little shy.

The little daughter's angry appearance made Liu He laugh.

But the more Liu He laughed, the more annoyed Huo Chengjun became.

In the end, she simply closed her eyes and turned sideways, throwing only one of her side faces to the Son of Heaven.

However, her long, curled eyelashes kept quivering slightly, and it seemed that she would open her eyes in the next second.

This is clearly coquettish, where is there a little angry?

"It's me Meng Lang, who has made you unhappy." Liu He said solemnly.

Huo Chengjun was unmoved.

"How about I make amends for you?" Liu He tried to ask.

Huo Chengjun still didn't open his eyes, but his body had turned slightly towards the Son of Heaven.

"I have another anecdote, do you want to tell you about it, I should have made amends to you, what do you think?"

Huo Chengjun hadn't laughed yet, but he finally opened his eyes and couldn't hide his antidestination and looked at the Son of Heaven - his daily life was too boring, and the Son of Heaven was so interesting, how could Huo Chengjun say "no"?

"Your Majesty, will Meng Lang still be like just now?" Huo Chengjun pretended to be resentful and said, the slightly upturned corners of his lips made people can't help but want to touch it.

"How can you say me, where is it me Meng Lang, it's clearly the widow Meng Lang, let's talk ......" Liu He smiled slyly, "Besides, you are my wife, I said that......"

As soon as Huo Chengjun heard the word "madam", he was even more annoyed, and he was about to reach over the tea case in front of him to cover the mouth of the Son of Heaven.

But as soon as her hand was raised, she realized that this move was a bit "disrespectful", and quickly took it back.

Liu He looked at it, and the smile on his face was even worse.

"Alright, well, I'm not going to say that this abominable widow has come to annoy you."

Huo Chengjun just did this, his flowing eyebrows turned, and he pretended to ask the Son of Heaven calmly: "Tell me the interesting story that Your Majesty, and I will no longer pursue this matter." ”

Seeing Huo Chengjun make this request, Liu He was very happy.

This is a living person, the previous shyness is interesting, but the "presumptuousness" at the moment is even more exciting.

Liu He seemed to see that the barrier between him and Huo Chengjun, which had been built up by the Rites and Religions, was gradually melting.

And that's a good thing.

"Okay, I'll talk about it now." Liu He said solemnly, "You pour me a cup of tea first and moisten your throat." ”

"Hmph, I'm going to see what you can say!" Huo Chengjun glanced at the Son of Heaven, but still poured a cup of tea for the Son of Heaven and sent it over.

Liu He drank it all, only felt refreshed, put down the cup with some residual warmth, and began to talk.

"There is a Confucian surnamed Li in Hanoi County, who is a courtier's staff, and one day he will go to Shu with the shogunate to serve in Shu for some reason."

"Because of the long distance from Hanoi to Shudi, this Confucian scholar cannot bring his wife there, so he can only temporarily separate from his beloved wife."

"Shu is rainy and foggy, such weather is the most likely to breed melancholy, Confucian can only often write poems in private, to express his thoughts on his wife."

……

Liu He told the story, pouring out his deep memories little by little, he never thought that the books he had read before could still be used now.

On the other side, Huo Chengjun was already fascinated, with his hands under his cheeks, looking at Liu He with blazing eyes.

There will be a change later!
