Xiling and the imperial city are safe.
A banquet was held in the royal garden of the palace.
The Queen of Xiling wears a pearl and jade crown and a bright yellow dragon embroidered phoenix robe, sitting in the Qianqiu Pavilion.
Her dark eyebrows flew sideways, and her red lips were dotted with red.
A pair of extremely beautiful peach blossom eyes, but they don't make people feel frivolous. When they look at her, they are not angry but powerful.
She is over forty years old, but she does not have the tiredness of a woman of this age. Her every move and gesture shows the dignity and dignity accumulated by time, which is inviolable.
A sapphire tea set is placed on the stone table in the pavilion. The elegant aroma of the tea floats. Seasonal fresh fruits and palace snacks are prepared on a silver plate.
The Queen held the tea cup in her hand and sipped lightly, raised her eyes and looked out of the pavilion, "Every March and April, the Royal Garden is the most beautiful, with luxuriant flowers and hundreds of fragrant flowers. However, the prince has to travel thousands of miles to come here every year. He doesn't feel tired of it." ?”
King Mobei smiled and said, "Beixiang and Xiling are in different regions, and the scenery of the Imperial Garden is also very different. How can you get bored with the scenery that only happens once a year?"
Watching the woman put the tea cup down, there was half of the tea in the cup.
He picked up the sapphire teapot and added some tea for her, "But this year the situation is a little different. Rather than coming to enjoy the scenery, I am here to hide and relax. This year, the commotion in Dongpu has never stopped, and Beixiang It is also adjacent to Dongpu, and all the countries will come to me from time to time and ask me to seek justice. I really don’t want to get involved in those things. Among the countries in the mainland, Xiling is the only one that does not participate in the dispute. After thinking about it, you are the only one here The purest.”
The Queen looked back and smiled noncommittally, "If you, King Mobei, want to be clean, who dares to disturb you?"
"There are so many brave people. In the old days of Shu, if Mo Liren was really afraid of me, he would not have deliberately let Su Jiuni and others go twice."
"Oh? Is this the case?"
King Mobei looked at the indifferent woman in front of him, and after a moment he said, "Feng Lin, why do you want to help them?"
The woman rested her jade fingers lightly on the stone table, raised her eyes and looked at him intently, her eyes cooled down for a moment, and then she showed a sharp look, "Are you questioning this emperor?"
After another moment of silence, the man pushed her favorite snack in front of her, "The matter is over. If I want to pursue it, I won't wait until today to ask you, let alone let Mo Liren go at that time. It's just a gathering of old friends. , it’s just a casual question. If you don’t want to answer, just don’t answer. Don’t be angry. You like the hibiscus cake from the Imperial Kitchen in Beixiang. I brought it here specially. Try it?”
He took a step back, and the silent and stagnant atmosphere in the pavilion relaxed again.
The Queen really liked eating hibiscus cakes. She only ate one or two bites of other fruit snacks on the table, but only two whole pieces of hibiscus cakes.
"The King of Mobei is willing to allow you to stay in Xiling for two more days to hide yourself."
Wen Renjing laughed when he heard this, "In that case, I would like to thank you, Your Majesty."
After a pause, "Tomorrow I will go to the palace to play chess with you."
"The spring scenery around Du'an is beautiful. Your Majesty can go around and enjoy it without having to accommodate me."
"Okay, Your Majesty has many things to do, but you still need to take good care of yourself and don't work too hard. I'll say goodbye before I return."
After the small banquet was over, the Queen saw off the guests and got up to return to the Cloud Palace.
After returning to the palace, she dismissed the maids waiting on both sides. The queen took off her spring robe and threw it on the partition screen in the inner hall. She lay down on the imperial concubine's couch near the window and said, "My order secretly stared at Wen Renjing. If If there is any unusual movement in Xiling, please come and report it at any time."
Aunt Jin should have said, "Your Majesty, King Mobei is surrounded by masters. He himself is also highly skilled in martial arts. It is difficult to hide from his eyes and ears when someone is watching."
"It doesn't matter, he knows that the emperor will have someone to monitor him."
"Old slave, let's do it now."
"Wait a minute, is there any new news from Mo Liren?"
Aunt Jin, who was about to go out to do some business, stopped and said, "I haven't returned to the Emperor yet."
The Queen turned over and looked out the window, waved gently, and then Grandma Jin withdrew.
The palace was completely quiet, and the palace maids guarding outside carefully covered the palace.
The Queen lay down for a while and then got up. She walked to the desk on the other side where the daily office and memorials were written, and took out a small wooden box from the cupboard below.
Open the lid and the box is filled with portraits.
A thick stack.
The portraits are all painted on fine rice paper. The paper at the bottom has turned yellow in color, and the ones on top are the newest ones.
Unfolding the portraits one by one, the Queen focused her eyes on the people in the paintings, from infancy, to babbling, to the twilight years... In the last one, a young man with a beautiful face is sitting in an armchair, with a lazy and shapeless posture. .
The long eyebrows are flying sideways, and the beautiful peach blossom eyes are slightly narrowed, as if they are looking at the person who is looking at the painting, with sharp and leering eyes.
He was so arrogant and evil that he almost jumped out of the page.
The Queen looked at the man in the painting, her jade fingertips gently caressed the young man's face, and finally stopped at the pair of peach blossom eyes that seemed to disappear from hers, her red lips parted slightly and her voice was as soft as a whisper, "It's so big... "
…
Bai Yu opened his eyes suddenly, and there was a burst of laughter in his ears.
"Bai Yu, did you become a thief last night? Did you come to my house to sleep in such a wonderful time?"
A green grass leaf scratched the tip of his nose, and Su An's big face flashed above his sight, "Get up, it's time to plant the rice!"
Bai Yulai stayed on the bench in the Su family hall, "I like to sit on the edge of the field and watch you planting rice. Can you move me over with the bench?"
The corners of Su An's lips quirked up, "Brother can't cure you anymore? Tianbao——"
Bai Yu quickly covered the young man's mouth and jumped on his back like a monkey, "Tianbao, here I come! Why don't you just plant the rice seedlings? I will do all your work today, so you can rest!"
"Little bastard, come down! Don't you know how much you weigh?"
"Senior brother, what you said is wrong. I'm waiting for you to treat me. I'll wait on your back to save you from looking for me."
"I still want to pick rice seedlings!"
"Pick me up too."
Su An spanked the young man with his backhand as he walked, "Did you just have a nightmare?"
Bai Yu jumped to the ground and kicked his head in the butt to avenge the beating, "The young master has only had sweet dreams since he was a child, and all sweet dreams can come true!"
"De Xing." Su An had already walked to the door, casually took the pole on the thorn wall and threw it over, "Work!"
Others have already gone to the fields.
There were piles of bundled rice seedlings at the entrance of Su's courtyard. Bai Yu quickly picked up two baskets and carried them toward the entrance of the village. The pole was bent at both ends by the baskets, but he still walked briskly.
The sun was still shining brightly in the March afternoon, and the wind blew gently, carrying a faint scent of grass from a distance.
Bai Yu raised his head slightly and looked at the clear sky, his eyes dark.
The dream I had just now was not very nice. I dreamed of a pair of eyes that looked exactly like him, with tears in their eyes, and their eyes were reluctant and sad.
Tsk, what a nightmare.
Bai Yu shook his eyes out of his head and walked quickly to the entrance of the village. When he saw the girl bending down to plant rice in the field from a distance, he raised his voice and shouted, "Tianbao, I just had a nightmare, it scared me to death!"
Walking in front, Su An, who had just put aside his picks, turned back, "..."
How about he put all the seedlings on the head of the thief?
