Spring tour, peach blossoms are full of heads. Time in the world is like a shuttle, suddenly snow, suddenly flowers. After the first spring rains, people in the city went out with their families. Call three or five confidants and bring your family members in the inner courtyard. Gorgeous chariots with different decorations are lined up on the road leading to the suburbs, and passers-by are dazzled by the wildflowers before they are seen.

Since the destruction of the Chu State, the arrogance and luxury of Qi have become more and more prosperous, and many princes and nobles have become accustomed to living a stable and prosperous life, and they have the heart of fighting for wealth.

The secluded mountains of Suri became noisy because of this gust of spring breeze, and near the stream, there were a group of elegant nobles everywhere, busy chanting poems, busy admiring flowers, and drunkards who did not mean to drink, and were busy flirting with the beauties browsing among the flowers.

A group of literati sat beside the stream, sitting in order from the upstream, learning from the appearance of the people of Chu and chanting and chanting songs; outside the monk temple on the top of the mountain, there was a Yin and Yang Heavenly Master dressed as a Taoist priest, who was stopped by the female relatives of each family and cut off with an iron mouth. Most of them are talking about marriage, whether they can marry the son of a certain family.

Everyone knows that the four most famous sons of Qidu have reached the age of weak crowns, and they don't know how many people come to ask for marriage, and whether they can be selected depends on personal luck. There are also princes who have also arrived at the festival of choosing concubines, and the crown prince has just been canonized this winter, and the candidate for the crown princess is still to be determined.

The prince is handsome and has a gentle personality, I don't know how many noble women look at it and drool, beautiful people love pretty men, not to mention that he is still a powerful person, who doesn't want to fly on the branches to do fènghuáng.

Regarding the appointment of the crown prince this winter, it is still a topic of discussion after dinner.

The five princes of King Qi, the most promising to be crowned as the crown prince is the fourth highness, he was born to the queen, he is not only a descendant, but also extremely intelligent, handsome and uncast, and the position of the prince belongs to him. But just a few days before the crown prince was ordained, something suddenly happened. Someone found that the four princes and the concubines in the palace had a private meeting in the garden, and let King Qi arrest him.

King Qi was furious and imprisoned the four princes in the Tranquility Courtyard to be punished, and they have not been released yet. In the end, he became the third prince and was canonized as the crown prince. He was the son of King Qi's favorite concubine. was brought up by King Qi, and he has feelings that others can't match.

However, the tragic experience of the four princes did not affect the mood of others at all, looking at these women who were flocking to marry the crown prince, as well as the excited joy and happy expressions on the faces of the princes of the spring family, none of them felt sorry for him.

In a lively atmosphere in the mountains. The most interesting thing is that under the peach blossom tree in the west, skilled painters spread out paper and pencils, and are tracing portraits for tourists.

There were many people around her, many of whom muttered to her back, saying that it was a famous generation of grandmasters, who were very good at painting at a young age, and had even entered the palace to paint small portraits of the current queen. The painter is not only skilled, but the most amazing thing is that he is a beauty who chooses one out of ten thousand, and for a time the audience is like a cloud, and how many noble sons are crowded around. Just waiting for the beauty to look forward to it occasionally, the big clear and bright eyes can glance at them, and even the poor scholar who pretends to be high and high quietly tidied up his clothes, lowered his head and rubbed into the queue waiting for the portrait. Looking at this situation, even if he keeps painting until sunset, the artist will not be able to return home.

Look closely, the beauty is really a peerless beauty, with a slender figure and a plump and slender figure, wearing a white bottom-chested long skirt, covered with a silk white light gauze, and a white belt around her waist. Her jet-black hair was tied in a bun, with a few beaded flowers in the bun, and a white pearl hanging from her forehead, and her jade-like skin was crimson. The moon eyebrows and starry eyes are cold, which can really be described as the national color and fragrance.

Yan Xu sat under the shade of the tree and leisurely looked at the row of weeping willows on the opposite bank, and glanced at the beautiful woman surrounded by men.

The maid on the side opened the food box. Lay out the snacks and put them in front of him. Glutinous rice cake, coconut rolls, duck fat and rose pastry...... He casually took a piece of glutinous rice cake and put it in his mouth, and the sweet and glutinous rice cake was eaten by him extremely hard, and he bit it with all his strength.

Suddenly, a hand reached over and put all his desiccated coconut rolls and duck fat rose cakes into his mouth, chewing on them while chunching, and said with a smile: "I said old ghost, you are in confinement, and you are not good to be in the Tranquility Courtyard, and you actually ran out, not afraid of being seen, and sue you again in front of King Qi?"

Yan Xu glanced at him lightly, and the man's face was full of gloating smiles, and he looked very unpleasant.

With a flick of his fingers, a small snake flew out from between his fingers and landed on the man, and the man suddenly screamed, "There are snakes, there are snakes."

I don't know how many eyes looked at this way, and the man forced himself to compose, and the eyes cast at him were really resentful and hateful.

Yan Xu just didn't see it, the stinky fox, how many times he has been tricked and still can't learn to be obedient, he plays tricks all day long, and he deserves to be bitten by a snake.

Qi Hu scurried out a long way away, and only when he collected the little snake did he turn back again, making a grimace with crooked lips and slanted eyes, "Old ghost, you play yin." ”

"It's your cowardice. "A fox, what is not good to be afraid of, but to be afraid of snakes, it is really a shame on the face of the fox fairy in the world.

"Be quiet and watch here. ”

Today he was disguised, and it was not appropriate for people to see him, especially the woman, knowing that he was staring at her, I was afraid that he would grin proudly.

It has been six months since she came to Qidu, from a wild girl in a mountain village when she first came, to a famous painter in Qi now, but it took only three months. Too many things have happened these days, and so many of them have made him, the Fourth Highness of the Qi Kingdom, a little unbearable.

Whoever was made the crown prince and who he was framed by was second to him, and what he cared about was always the shadow in front of him.

As soon as this girl arrived in Qidu, she lived in the mansion of Li Yunhe, the Taichangqing who was in charge of music and rhythm in Taichang Temple, and I don't know where she got her luck, so she was recommended by Lord Li and entered the palace as a painter.

When he first saw her in the palace, he was very startled, thinking that she would care about his identity, the fourth prince of Qi State, the son of her enemy. The reason why I haven't told her before is that I don't want her to treat him as an enemy, her revenge is too strong, and it is easy for her to let go of her hatred.

Thinking back to that time, he looked at her cautiously, for fear that she would suddenly pounce and stab him, but she didn't move, just looked at him quietly, smiled at him, and then bowed down, "I've seen Your Highness." ”

At that moment, he felt creepy, and even thought that it would be better if she could beat him and scold him.

Now she is very different from the time when she was in the Land Temple, and the time when she was in the Tianqing Palace, what happened during this period?

He would rather she have hatred on her lips as she had done before, than the smiling, calm eyes she had now. What's behind that calm?

After midday, the sun is blazing. The pampered dignitaries either sat back in their luxurious chariots or hid in the shade of trees. Raise your hand and look up at the clear blue sky from between your fingers, today's sky is endless, quiet and vast, no wind and no rain. Originally, it was very pleasant to take a look at the willow color and the peach blossoms, but I met her again.

Yan Xu was eating dim sum, although he seemed leisurely, but the eyes he cast from time to time were very entangled.

Qi Huwei sat nearby, smiling with a little wine, and his bowels were knotted, and the only old ghost who could make the world difficult to mess with was the more ghostly girl.

He deliberately chuckled and said: "Chu Yun, this girl is really powerful, if a pen is helped, the characters drawn from her hands are lifelike, and the words are also beautifully written, but she is worthy of the title of a talented woman in Qidu." ”

Yan Xu snorted, "She is the personal disciple of Master Wu Qi, so it is nothing to this extent." ”

Back then, Master Wu Qi accepted three disciples, each of whom was a famous scholar in the world, and others had only seen the three apprentices of this old man, but they didn't know that he had a fourth disciple. Although Emperor Mingyue did not formally apprentice at that time, her first-hand painting and techniques were as true as Wu Qi's inheritance. It's no wonder that she has such a big reputation in a short period of time, and she does have real kung fu.

Qi Huwei looked at his tangled little eyes that he wanted to see but didn't dare to see, wanted to go but didn't dare to go, and narrowed his eyes with a smile, "If you want to go over, go over, what's the use of watching here for a long time?"

Yan Xu snorted lightly, if he could have passed it too soon, why bother here to watch her talk and laugh with those stinky men. It's just a picture, as for smiling so brightly, and everyone is so slimy?

It's not that you don't want to go, it's that you can't go. He is still a sinful body, and he can't leave the Tranquility Courtyard casually, and if he is seen, he is afraid that there will be another turmoil. He is not afraid, but he is always calculated, and he is really unhappy, or he should consider fighting back, if others think that he is a soft persimmon, and they want to pinch it, it is really a big mistake.

He would let them know what it was like to see a ghost in broad daylight......

Secretly ruthless, in a blink of an eye, there were more people around Chu Yun. There was also a young girl standing beside her, it was Chu Yun's newly acquired maid, who seemed to be called nephrite.

At this moment, her fair face, soft lines, faint eyebrows, and a pair of charming big eyes flickered, very smart and intelligent. She is responsible for registering these sons, wiping sweat and rubbing ink for Chu Yun, and the sun is big at the moment, and her little face is flushed.

After fanning for a while, he whispered: "Girl, you've been painting for so long, do you want to take a break?"

Chu Yun nodded slightly, she had been surrounded by these sons since the morning, and she had not stopped painting until now. It's a bit tiring indeed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you want to sit down and have a cup of tea, Yun personally cooked tea. ”

"Yes, yes. ”

"Thank you, girl. ”

Countless people responded, and they hugged her to a densely shaded place, spread a soft cloth, and sit on the ground.

Nephrite took out the food box, which contained a large pot of peach blossom tea and a few plates of fine snacks. To be continued.
