Wang Yu looked up and saw the sunlight shining in the garden, and put the bowl down. said: "The lady lives in the official family, and she knows some things about the palace. ”

Liu Shuangying said: "Since the concubine's parents have never told me about this palace matter, only my father will be ordered to enter the palace to discuss politics. Except for the time when the four dragons entered the Moon Dragon Pavilion, my mother had not been able to enter the palace for a long time. Whenever the elders talked about the affairs of the palace, we were not there. Only the elder brother entered the court as an official in the family, but the elder brother was a local state official and rarely entered the palace. ”

Wang Yu nodded and said with a smile: "It's good that my father-in-law and mother-in-law don't let my mother hear about the things in the palace, so it's good to stay away from the things in the palace." ”

"Is the prince just disturbing the affairs of the palace?" asked Liu Shuangying.

Wang Yu said: "That's true, they are determined to find out, I still have thirteen days to return to the palace, I hope everything has settled by then......"

Liu Shuangying said: "What the prince is afraid of, I think it is worse than the flood beast." ”

Wang Yu got up and looked at Liu Shuangying, who was wiping the corners of her mouth, put away the dinner plate, and said, "Do you want to go to the theater today?"

"I only heard a few plays a few days ago, and although I don't want to listen to the play today, I want to go out for a walk. Liu Shuangying said.

Wang Yu got up and put away the plate, and said, "Lady, please wait a while, I will send the plate, let the stables prepare the carriage and horses, and go to the south of the city to take a look." I heard that a new manor has opened there, and there are many fresh things in the manor, so I took my wife to see it. ”

Liu Shuangying smiled and nodded, she looked at the back of Wang Yu leaving, lowered her head and secretly smiled After confiding her heart last night, she loved the person she married more and more. She has changed from that indescribable affection to clear admiration for Wang Yu, and the words Wang Yu said were what she had been thinking about and what she loved, not Wang Yu's thoughts, but Wang Yu's attempt and respect for her, as well as Wang Yu's temperament that was different from that of the children of the official family in Beijing, and that temperament attracted her.

At noon, Wang Yu and his wife bid farewell to their eldest brother Wang De, and then went out and got into the carriage, and as soon as the carriage left, they walked to the manor in the south of the city.

The sun is shining, the climate has completely changed, and the word cold is no longer available, at least after these days, the cold will return to the earth.

The carriage passed through the downtown south of the city, and then turned from a main street into an alley, at the end of which was an open gate, newly lacquered, with a plaque reading "Grandview Manor". There is a couplet on both sides of the gate, the upper couplet is "guests from all over the world", and the lower couplet is "the end of the world travelers return".

After a bit of neighing, the carriage stopped. Wang Yu got out of the car and held hands to greet Liu Shuangying, and then the gate of the manor opened, and a few small servants stepped forward to pay their respects and said: "Official, it is not an honor for Mrs. Manor to accept the two of you today." Two carriages and horses can go west and stop at the racecourse. ”

When Wang Yu heard this, he asked the groom to park the carriage and let him come back after dinner. Then the servants led the two into the gate.

In the gate is a courtyard, both sides of the courtyard are flower stands, the flower stands are all strange and fragrant flowers, many Kao Yu don't seem to know, Liu Shuangying looks left and right, and doesn't know those flowers. As they walked, they passed a curtain, and inside the curtain was a large avenue, beside which were climbing morning glories and some flowers and vines, and the road was not a floor tile, but a path paved for the lawn.

Everyone entered the flower curtain before and after, and outside the flower curtain were full of some frolicking children, and some small servants were accompanied. Wang Yu asked: "Dare to ask the little brother, why can the morning glory climbed by this flower curtain bloom so prosperously?"

The little servant said: "The officials don't know, this morning glory is not the flower of the Central Plains, they are the flower seeds picked in the southwest near the country of Piao, this kind of flower seed is soaked in the flower liquid picked by my owner for a month, and then planted, the flower can bloom all day." ”

"This flower curtain and flower arrangement are so beautiful, the whole yard is fragrant, but the fragrance is not dense, such a fragrance is faintly soaking, if someone comes here, it must be lingering. Liu Shuangying said.

Madame spoke in the jargon. As he spoke, everyone walked through the flower path, and the last flower curtain came out, and the little maids led the two into a moon gate, and as soon as the flower curtain came out, everyone saw that there were many more moon gates like a maze, and those moon gates were seven or eight places, all of which were very closely spaced.

Passing through a moon gate, it is a surrounding waterway, like a small stream, and there seems to be some fragrant smell under the water at the bottom, Liu Shuangying smelled and smelled a circle of fragrance when she crossed the small offering bridge. The servants let the two of them sit in the gazebo in the center of the waterway. In the pavilion, there was already a small servant who placed the refreshments, and the little servant who led the way said: "Official, lady, please sit"

The two sat at the mahogany table in the gazebo, and the little servants on both sides poured their tea. Wang Yu took a sip of tea and asked, "By the way, little brother." I don't know what the little brother means by this? Is there a mystery in this garden?"

The little guy stood aside and said, "The officials don't know that this manor is a place built by a sea of flowers." My master opened this manor, and there are a total of ninety-nine moon gates, each of which has a different flower scene. But some people can't stand the fragrance of flowers, because the pollen is scattered, and some people are susceptible to pollen, so all the fragrance of my manor is concocted. ”

"What's the method?" asked Wang Yu.

The little guy was a little confused, Wang Yu knew what he meant, so he didn't ask again. Afterwards, Wang Yu asked, "I don't know where your master came from, and how could such a manor be opened with such a magical power?"

"My master is from the Valley of Hundred Flowers. The little guy said.

Wang Yu put down the teacup and said, "The Valley of Hundred Flowers west of Fanjing Mountain?"

Xiao Wu said: "Exactly, we were originally in Baihua Valley, and we came to Beijing to do business. Although Hundred Flowers Valley sells strange flowers, many sellers have no way

Those who can feed these exotic flowers and plants. Either he didn't want to cook, or he couldn't cook it legally, so the valley owner wanted to do some business on his own, so he asked a friend in Beijing for this piece of land and started to build it, and now it has just opened for less than ten days. ”

Wang Yu said: "The Valley of Hundred Flowers has always been indisputable with the world, and the valley master will actually step into the world. ”

"If you don't have a fight with the world, you also need money to maintain the livelihood of these disciples. A voice came, and a person walked in front of him, only to see that the person was dressed in a light green brocade robe, with a white jade belt tied around his waist, and a pair of dark red jade pendants on the jade belt, and a trace of silver hair drooping under his left eye, full of black hair, but all of them were coiled, but only this strand of silver hair was hanging in front of his left ear.

The man stepped forward, put the wisp of silver behind his left ear, sat down, and said, "I heard that a distinguished guest has come up from the village, so I will come and take a look." ”

The little guys immediately stepped forward to pay a visit and said, "Participate in the master"

The man motioned for the little servants to stand down, and said, "These two are the first newlyweds to come to the manor today, so they have come to visit the newlyweds in the next place. ”

"How would the owner of the village know that I and Uchiko have just been newly married?" asked Wang Yu.

The man smiled and said, "When the two of you came, the people from the village came to report to me that a couple had come to the garden today. My manor has only been open for a short time, and all the businessmen who have come from my friends have come to cheer on the market, big and small, old and young, all of them have come, and they have come all day. Most of the people who came after came were families, and although there were young couples, most of them came with children. Only the official family is a husband and wife, if Mrs. Zun is pregnant, I can't visit this manor, and if it is a big family, the young grandmother is pregnant, how can the family let her go out?"

After Wang Yu heard this, he stroked his palms and laughed, and said, "Okay, good...... He is worthy of being the lord of the Valley of Flowers. I don't know the name of the valley lord?"

The man said: "Under the surname Feng, the single name is a Ling character." ”

Wang Yu and his wife visited Feng Ling one after another, and Feng Ling said, "Haven't consulted the two yet?"

Wang Yu said: "Under the surname Wang Mingyu, the righteous son of General Huben Wang, this is the inner son of Liu." ”

"I was the righteous son of General Huben, but I didn't expect that the nobles of the court could come to my village, and it was rude," Feng Ling saluted.

Wang Yu picked Feng Ling up and talked to him a few more words.

While talking, a group of maids came to serve seven or eight dishes and a pot of wine. Wang Yu was a little surprised and asked, "Is this ......?"

Feng Ling said: "Wang Gongzi came to my village to enjoy the fun, it was noon at this time, and the two of them didn't have lunch before." There is a kitchen in the village, so how about serving some small dishes and a pot of flower brew for the two of them, so that the two of them can have lunch first, and then take the two of them to enjoy the manor together?"

While speaking, Feng Ling poured wine for the two of them, Liu Shuangying was a little uncomfortable, and said, "Master Feng, the slave family can't drink." ”

Feng Ling said: "Hahaha, don't be surprised, madam, this wine is blended, not real wine." And it's made of flowers, and some flower juice is added, and the taste is very light, Madame, take a bite, if you feel unwell, how about I let them exchange it again?"

Liu Shuangying took a sip, and really thought it was delicious, so she didn't refuse. The three of them ate at the banquet table, the noon sun was a little hot, and the luncheon was over.

The maids removed the leftovers on the dinner table, and after everyone sat for a while, Feng Ling got up and said, "Two of you, please here."

Wang Yu and his wife were immediately led out of a moon gate by Feng Ling and a group of people, and first came to a grassland, and the grassland emitted a burst of fragrance, and directly opposite the grassland was a stage. Feng Ling said: "This is the stage, if a large family comes here and wants to play at night, I will invite the troupe to sing a few excerpts." ”

Wang Yu asked, "Why does this grass also have a strange fragrance?"

Feng Ling said: "This grass is called strange herbs, which are found in my Hundred Flowers Valley and the Fanjing Mountain in the east, and this grass is also found in western Yunnan, but my Hundred Flowers Valley is the most prosperous, and every night, the strange herbs here will be like fluorescent, as if there are thousands of fireflies in this grass, it is very beautiful."

After that, Feng Ling took him through a moon gate, where there were several houses, Feng Ling said: "This is a flower house, two of you should be careful."

After that, he opened a door, Wang Yu helped Liu Shuangying into the room, and sure enough, he saw some vines under his feet, in addition to his feet, his head was also hanging, and the walls were still climbing...... There are a number of buckets in the corners of this room, and I don't know what they contain. Feng Ling said: "The flowers here do not like the sun, these flowers and vines can be used to make root carvings, these days have been visited by many people, just want to buy these flowers and vines." ”

Just look at these flowers and vines are spreading around, but they seem to have built themselves into various shapes, and they are all very wonderful like graceful beauties, like horses stepping on swallows, like tigers descending mountains......

Liu Shuangying looked at the flowers and vines that could be seen everywhere in front of her, and asked, "Dare to ask Master Feng, these flowers and vines are so soft and elastic, how can they be carved roots?"

Feng Ling said with a smile while leading everyone away: "Mrs. Wang doesn't know, although the carving of this tree pays attention to the hardness of the rhizome, but this flower vine is soft and elastic, and it can only be slightly modified with a carving knife, and the large shape can only be fixed with iron wire, so that the craftsmen can save a lot of effort to do it." ”

Liu Shuangying said: "Thank you Feng Zhuang for solving your doubts, the slave family is shallow......"

Feng Ling smiled, complimented him casually, and then took him out of the house, where there were still a few rooms, but Feng Ling did not lead the two of them forward.

When everyone arrived in the courtyard, Wang Yu asked curiously, "Master Feng, why are the rest of the flower rooms closed?"

Feng Ling said with a smile: "There are nine flower rooms in total, the summer solstice has passed, we need to replace them with another batch of flowers and plants, only this flower room is taken care of." The flowers in the flower room here do not like the sun, so they need to plant seeds when the sun is a little strong after the summer solstice, and they can bloom when autumn comes. This flower vine likes to be cold, so I also asked someone to go and find some ice, but this capital

There is indeed little ice, only the official family has an ice cellar, I heard that the palace has ordered about eighty percent, and the rest is sold at a high price to the merchants, which is a high price, and I am afraid that it will also make us merchants fight for their heads. It took a lot of money to gather the ice buckets in this room. ”

It turned out that the barrels in the room were full of ice. Feng Ling continued: "The flowers in the rest of the flower houses are being sown these days, and there is some soil and fertilizer at this time, and the gardeners are still taking care of them there, and the sowing of these flowers needs to be carefully cared for. Originally, many merchants in the rivers and lakes came to buy my seeds, but in the end, all these strange flowers were defeated by them, and even worse, they died in the soil before the flowers bloomed. That's why my business is difficult to do, and I have asked the gardener to go out and teach a few times, but the gardeners under some rich businessmen are still stupid and not proficient. Some people want to poach the gardeners under me because they see that they are very good, and I will not do business with those who want to dig me."

A group of people walked out of a moon gate, and then came into view of a pavilion, and the plaque reads "Peony Pavilion".

"Peony, although this peony is gorgeous, how can it be regarded as a strange flower?" asked Wang Yu.

Feng Ling said with a smile: "This peony pavilion was originally the attic that I sold to my old friend here, but when I was downstream through the rivers and lakes, I saw several strange peonies in the land of Baiyue, and after collecting their pollen, they were planted in my Baihua Valley. ”

Wang Yu was a little puzzled, but he still asked with some surprise: "What is a strange peony?"

Feng Ling said: "These strange colored peonies are the combination of the original eight colored peonies, and the peonies can give birth to two or three colors, and the petals are layered, a few petals are one color, and the other petals are one color. And the rarest, is the colorful peony, which is on the peony pavilion. At a young age, the gardener removed these peonies. ”

While talking, some gardeners in the attic really moved the flowers down, and they were really peonies of several colors. Liu Shuangying was a little surprised, as the daughter of the squire of the military department, after so many years, she has seen a lot of precious objects, but she has never seen such a peony at all.

Feng Ling said: "After lunch, I will ask the gardener to put them in the water room at the pavilion to water them. This pavilion was originally used to enjoy the flowers, and when the peonies were brought up, I asked the two of them to go upstairs to watch and see. ”

Wang Yu said: "Such a miraculous thing, I naturally want to meet Neiko." ”

The gardeners moved the flowers to the back of the yard one by one and were moving the pots. The last two eight-colored peonies went downstairs, and the craftsman who carried the flowers went downstairs and wiped his sweat, Wang Yu looked at it at a glance and felt that the two people in front of him were a little familiar, but he didn't think about it for a while, but the appearance of these two people made him doubt in his heart.

The two gardeners exerted their strength, and moved the flowers to the place designated by the other gardeners. Then the gardeners said goodbye to the crowd. The little guys went up to the pavilion first, Feng Ling then led Wang Yu and his wife up to the pavilion, and when they arrived in the center of the pavilion, they looked down and saw the peonies that had been placed, and the eight colors were all the way, and they were directly spliced into a colorful butterfly.

Wang Yu exclaimed: "Master Feng Zhuang is so capable, this kind of placement design is really breathtaking. ”

Liu Shuangying also echoed: "This strange peony itself is beautiful, and when spliced like this, it is even more colorful." ”

Feng Ling said: "Walked in two places, the two of you will use some melon juice here first" After that, the two little guys came to the front of the two glass cups, and the orange juice was in the cup, and the bottom of the quilt was red.

Wang Yu said: "This juice is squeezed from yellow oranges, but the redness at the bottom of this cup is unknown for some reason, can the owner of Feng Zhuang tell me?"

Feng Ling said: "The red at the bottom of this cup is the flower juice of this peony, this kind of strange peony, as soon as the flower juice is paired with melons and fruits, the more you drink it, the sweeter it feels." ”

After hearing these words, Wang Yu and his wife slowly tasted it, and the more they drank, the sweeter the juice became. After drinking all the juice in the cup, Feng Ling said, "Do you want to drink another cup?"

After Wang Yu and his wife excused themselves, Feng Ling and the others led the two of them down from another place in the attic to another moon gate, and as soon as they passed through the moon gate, there was a small courtyard, which had pavilions and water pavilions, and it was full of strange flowers and fruits. Stopping and doing so, the crowd walked through many parts of the manor. Liu Shuangying silently counted the number of moon gates they passed through, although they only counted forty-nine, less than ninety-nine, but the wonders they saw in these forty-nine places were enough for anyone to feast their eyes.

There were wonders all over the manor, and the scenery was breathtaking, and everyone returned to the pavilion of Fangcai. Dinner has been set, Feng Ling said: "Two, this is the 'Hundred Flowers Banquet' set up for the two of you, the dishes here are all strange flowers in it, and the taste has a unique flavor, and the tea and wine are also prepared, and the two of you can enjoy it slowly."

Wang Yu said: "Doesn't Master Feng stay and enjoy the food?"

Feng Ling said with a smile: "I can't accompany the two of you at the dinner, the lord of the Lu family is holding a family banquet in the village today, and I still need to accompany him, this is what I said to Master Lu." Therefore, we need to rush over at this moment. ”

Wang Yu only understood a little after hearing this, and said: "No wonder there are some children frolicking in the courtyard when I come, I think that the fifty small scenes of the other garden have been covered by this Master Lu, right?"

"Hahaha...... Wang Gongzi was right, Master Lu was going to take over my entire manor, but I said that it would be difficult to do business on this day, so I refused. Feng Ling said with a smile.

Wang Yu said: "In this way, Master Feng Zhuang, please go quickly, don't delay the hour." ”

Feng Ling said goodbye to the two and withdrew from the courtyard. Wang Yu asked the servants to wait outside the moon gate, and if he had any orders, they would come in again.

"It's no wonder that when I walked around a few small courtyards, I heard music outside the courtyard, but none of those Yuemen Feng Zhuang owners took me and others there. Liu Shuangying said.

Wang Yu didn't reply, he kept thinking that the two florists were Chen Renhai's letters, and the two people mentioned in the letter had them.

You are a genius, remember in a second: Red Sweet Spring:
