The king of the West Mountain, Mei Jiuling Mei, is the primordial immortal of the flower fairy world who guarded the creatures of the flower fairy world together with the flower king Yao Huang when the heaven and earth first opened. It was listed as a first-class immortal of the ninth grade, and was later canonized by Kao as the prince of the West Mountain who guarded the foot of the West Mountain.

For millions of years, the foot of this West Mountain has been managed by the prince of Mei to make the fairy plum bloom, the four seasons are continuous, and the plum fragrance is thousands of miles. Today, the plum blossoms of this West Mountain have dozens of kinds of palace pink plum, red plum, Zhaoshui plum, green calyx plum, jade butterfly plum, sprinkled golden plum and so on from the flower type alone.

The five petals of plum blossoms were originally a symbol of five blessings. It contains the meaning of happiness, happiness, longevity, smoothness, peace and auspiciousness. Therefore, the top of this West Mountain is guarded by the old prince Mei to make people and animals safe and prosperous.

The plum garden, the residence of the prince of Xishan, is built on the east side of the foot of Xishan. It is composed of four parts: "Plum Path through the Quiet", "Mei Xue Xiangxuan", "Mei Ting Tablet Ridge" and "Mei Yuan Listening to the Wind", which are commonly known as the four courtyards of Plum Garden. It's just that people often talk in private, everyone has visited and browsed the first three courtyards of the Plum Garden, but only these four courtyards "Listening to the Wind in the Plum Garden" have never been entered, and it is very mysterious.

People who have been to Xishan Plum Garden say that the architectural style of Xishan Plum Garden, many of which make use of the natural ecological modeling in the park, carve out a kind of small bridge, flowing water, and people's artistic conception, and hide the white ancient buildings between the plum forest, pine forest, bamboo forest and cliff rock, the shape is simple and elegant, peculiar and novel, and the whole is beautiful and breathtaking.

On this western mountain, in addition to the plum blossom trees all over the mountain, citrus, peaches, plums, persimmons, ginkgo, pomegranates and other sparse trees are planted between them; occasionally, there are large areas of green grass, and small lakes and swamps are dotted among them. This beautiful scenery of Xishan is indeed confusing to all beings.

It's no wonder that Ula wants to visit this place.

Besides, the old prince of Xishan Mei has a total of six sons and two daughters, a total of eight children.

The eldest son, Mei Xiangyi, is now the Mei Shizi of the Mei family;

The second son, Mei Xiangge, has married Mei Bingbing, the only daughter of King Mei of Northern Xinjiang, to Qin and Jin Forever, and entered Northern Xinjiang as a son-in-law;

The eldest daughter, Mei Chuyan, is not married, and seems to have the intention of never marrying. But under his knees, he raised a daughter, Mechuva, whose origin is suspicious;

The third son, Mei Xiangwen, is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, dancing knives, guns, fists and feet, and a merry and talented son, who is nicknamed Mei Xiangqi or Xiangqi Feifei. It is one of the most prestigious "Three Friends of the Cold" on the rivers and lakes;

The fourth son, Mei Xiangfeng, the fifth son, Mei Xiangru, the sixth son, Mei Xiangshan, each full of economy, was in charge of the affairs of history, households, and the Ministry of Industry in the Mei family;

At the bottom is the second daughter, Mei Miaoyan, the little princess, who is also a peerless and intelligent beauty, and has not yet been married.

The six sons of this old prince Mei are all dignified and talented, and they are also outstanding in all aspects of literature and martial arts, and they are widely praised by the world and spread around.

Only this Mei Sangongzi Xiangwen is a little romantic, and he also leaves incense everywhere on the rivers and lakes, so he is ridiculed as: "Fragrant kiss Feifei".

The two county lords of the Mei family are two excellent beauties, and their appearance and character are among the best in the flower fairy world. It's just that such a perfect beauty has never been married so far, but it makes people in the world guess and discuss, and their rhetoric is different.

The Mei family, in fact, the prince of Mei Xiangyi is already in charge of the real power of the Mei family, and the old prince Mei is just still hanging a false name, responding to the situation in the court, and being at the helm in family affairs.

This fragrant cloth son has been married, married to Mei Tongtong, the daughter of the neighbor who is a childhood sweetheart, and has a son named Merlot.

This little grandson of Merlot is the same as the little king of the peony family of the royal family in the flower fairy world, Peony Yong, is a talented and world-famous genius boy. This little prince Merlot can speak since birth, and is also fluent in several languages, such as the world, the world, the three birds and six animals, the water, the soil, the wind and thunder, the flowers and trees, and so on, and what is even more wonderful is that when he was born, he wore a golden bracelet on his wrist.

It is said that with the growth of age and knowledge, the little prince Merlot has been able to use this heavenly golden bracelet as he wishes.

If you want to talk about the miracle of the Mei family, the other is the mystery of the birth of Mei Chuwa, the daughter of Mei Chuyan, the lord of Chang County.

There have been rumors in the world that this Mei Chuwa is the illegitimate daughter of the unmarried and pregnant daughter of the county lord of Chuyan, and this unmarried benevolent lord is the prince of the peony royal family in the flower fairy world. It's just that most of the people are just hearsay, and no one can prove it with real evidence. Therefore, it can only be spread privately.

And the Mei family declared to the outside world: Mei Chuwa is the county lord of Chuyan, and the plum soul child who was refined with the flower soul of nine strange plum blossoms. Because of its delicate and delicate, and because it is the result of the painstaking efforts of the county lord of Chuyan, it also has a poem: "The light rain passes through the plum end, and Chu Chu produces new blue." Therefore, it was named: Chuwa.

It is said that the strange plum blossoms of Huaxing Chuwa are varieties from foreign countries, and no one in the world has ever seen them with their own eyes. Therefore, it made this matter more mysterious, and the rumors became more and more intense, and even small people like Ula Quaqua heard about it and talked about it.

Now, it is about to enter the fourth month of the lunar calendar, and the old prince Mei is the birthday of the first day of the fourth lunar month. Although there are still a few days left before the main day, the children of the Mei family are showing their talents and preparing for their birthdays.

No, the third son, Mei Xiangwen, took the lead in posting a VIP post, and specially invited a few of his best friends to visit the Plum Garden Shilin that he single-handedly organized as a birthday gift. It is said that he searched all the famous literati and ink writers in the world to Yongmei Mobao, authentic works, and strange stone ancient monuments before he built the poetry forest of the plum garden. Therefore, these gods and goddesses from all over the world, heaven and earth, inside and outside the territory, who are fortunate enough to be invited, how can they not come to the gift.

But it was said that the two of them, Peony Yong and Wulagua, followed the two immortals of Song and Zhu to Mei's house to attend the meeting. Along the way, the first thing you have to enter is the first courtyard named after "Plum Path to the Quiet".

The four of them came to the path where a large number of palace pink plums bloomed on both sides, and Peony Yong and Ula Quack paid attention to see how Song Baweng and Zhu San Gongzi passed the curfew.

At this time, Songba Weng suddenly took out a bright red plum blossom invitation from his sleeve and handed it to Ula Qua, and he himself took the lead and calmly walked on the path.

Ula also walked in with the invitation, and Peony followed forward, but was bounced back.

Zhu San Gongzi also took out an invitation card from his sleeve, handed it to his apprentice, and said with a smile: "Brother Song is too clear." My apprentice has to do everything, I can't do anything?"

Matsuhachi-ong twisted his beard and laughed.

Peony Yong said: "Look at the Mei family's access control, there is no one to guard it, and it can stop the living, but the acquaintances are unobstructed, but it is not very safe." ”

Zhu San Gongzi said: "It's you who don't know." Eighth Brother Song and I have been friends with the Mei family for nearly a million years, and with our skills and familiarity, no matter how many changes he has in the Mei family, we can't stop us from entering. In this world, I'm afraid it's just three or two of us. ”

Peony Yong nodded and said, "Oh, that's because I'm too worried." ”

As he was talking, he suddenly heard a crisp sound of "pop", and saw a large round bubble with pink, in which stood a little girl in a pink dress, bursting out of thin air from a plum tree. I heard the little girl shout, "Do you need guidance?"

Song Hachion, who was walking in front, said casually: "No." Thank you!"

The little girl in the bubble immediately became depressed, and the bubble disappeared in an instant.

Seeing the curious appearance of Peony Yong and Ula Quack, Zhu San Gongzi explained: "This is the Mei family's unique hospitality, the originality of Mei Xiangwen's third son. This bubble girl is called "Phantom Plum Sparrow", for those who come to the Mei family for the first time, and those who don't understand the laws of change here, they will be of great help, and they will take a lot of unjust roads. But sometimes when the finches are in a bad mood, or they seem to be unruly and unpleasant, they will also be naughty and mischievous, and it also happens from time to time to walk the unlucky eggs. Instead, he left a lot of ridiculous information. Hehe. ”

After introducing this paragraph, Zhu San Gongzi laughed, and it seemed that he must have remembered some interesting story.

Seeing that the master and apprentice were chatting endlessly, Song Baweng shouted in front: "Why don't you hurry up? ”

Zhu San Gongzi smiled: "It's not all you, you must play chess and try it, it's a waste of time." I'm busy again!"

So, they quickened their pace and hurried along a winding path, and inadvertently found that the surrounding scenery was constantly changing, and some natural barriers set up in accordance with the mountain topography created a good feeling that the mountains and rivers were in doubt. No, as soon as I walked along the path, I seemed to be blocked by a dense weeping plum in front of me.

At this time, I heard a "pop" and a "phantom plum sparrow" popped out, this time it was a little girl with white bubbles and a white dress inside, and she also asked enthusiastically: "Do you need a guide for your guests?"

Peony Yong shouted first: "Yes! Thank you." ”

This time it was the turn of Zhu San Gongzi to laugh.

Peony Yong hurriedly bowed his hand to Master and Song Baweng, and said, "Please forgive Master! Senior Song, forgive me, I, I'm just curious." ”

Ula croaked her eyes and stared at the "Phantom Plum Sparrow", and also nodded and said, "Mmmmmmmm If there's a bunch of bubbles to guide us, then the scene is -- hah! It's fun, will it be messed up?"

Zhu San Gongzi said: "This is impossible. As long as you allow a "Phantom Plum Sparrow" to lead the way, the other finches will not appear again. ”

Listening to their lively discussions, Song Baweng couldn't help but feel childlike, and he said, "What's so difficult about this? ”

I saw that as soon as he waved the sleeves of his robe, he set up a fairy barrier around the "Phantom Plum Sparrow", so that they could see the finches, but the plum spinches could not see each other.

At this time, the "Phantom Plum Sparrow" danced with joy, and she cried out, "Your Excellency, please go this way." The bubbles fluttered behind them as she danced.

Peony Yong turned around and saw that there was a bend in a small bamboo forest behind the left that was tempting to go there, and Mei Qi'er was guiding them to go here.

Everyone walked through the bamboo forest with great interest, and saw three more paths in front of them.

The three paths live next to each other, and on both sides of the path are the palace pink plums that are blooming brilliantly, and their flowers are cascading with double petals, or dark or light red, exuding a rich fragrance.

If you are really a newcomer, without the guidance of Mei Queer, you will definitely think that the path on the far left near the mountain is the route up the mountain, then you must be taking the wrong way. In fact, the path at the bottom is the route on the top of the West Mountain, and it is also a shortcut to "Listening to the Wind in the Plum Garden". And the middle path is the route that leads to the "Meixue Xiangxuan" of the Third Courtyard, which is the first place they want to visit today.

Sure enough, at this time, with a bang, another "Phantom Plum Sparrow" in a red dress popped up, which was also the same question and the same enthusiasm.

Song Ba Weng hid it again. On the road behind, as soon as Mei Qi'er appeared, Peony Yong and Ula Quack rushed to agree, causing everyone to laugh constantly.

Zhu San Gongzi and Song Ba Weng are frequent visitors to the Mei family, naturally very familiar with the doorway here, they were invited to come today because of the delay in playing chess, naturally do not want to delay here, and Peony Yong and Wu La Quack two people, full of curiosity and unknown about everything here, I can't wait to spread my feet, walk all the winding paths here, and enjoy the scenery all over it.

The plum sparrows are all shouting: "Distinguished guests, please go this way!" and "Distinguished guests, please go over there!".

Because of Peony Yong and Ula Quack along the way, they have been trying to jump up and poke the bubbles of the plum sparrow, but they are all in vain. As soon as they jumped, the sparrows bounced away alertly, and they couldn't touch them, but they annoyed them. Therefore, the sound of the guide is different, the screams of the plum finches here and there, are really a bit chaotic.

The two Immortal Monarchs only looked at it and laughed happily. Perhaps, even the immortals who were born with heaven and earth had an unforgettable childlike interest when they were young, and the older they lived, the more innocent childlike innocence that gradually traveled far away could stir their hearts. This long-lost feeling, both familiar and unfamiliar, made them even more interested.

The two immortal monarchs ignored the cries of the plum birds, walked directly onto the path in the middle, walked a long way, and then stepped on a small bridge, crossed a quiet lake, and saw the gate of the plum garden towering high between the western mountains. I saw a couplet written in gilded characters on the doorposts on both sides of the gate.

The left link is: the old trees are full of branches, the ink plum dances, and there are dragons and snakes from Daze;

The right link is: Qifeng stands, the fragrant sea rises and falls, it is a good family in heaven and earth;

Horizontal batch: Mei Xue Xiangxuan.

At this time, a person suddenly flashed out of the gate. I saw that he was wearing a good white brocade robe, embroidered with elegant plum blossom piping, echoing the mutton fat jade hairpin on his head, with embroidered silk of the same color at his waist, and white deerskin boots, nearly seven feet tall, looking handsome and chic with a bee waist.

In the breeze, his robe and hair fluttered with the breeze, his skin seemed to flow faintly shiny, and his eyes flashed with a glazed light.

This person is Mei Xiangwen, the third son of Mei who is the most widely rumored on the rivers and lakes.
