Li Chenan and his party arrived at the foot of the Western Mountain when the sun was rising.
There is only one trail on the way up the mountain, so of course you can't ride horses or carriages.
But that little black donkey can.
Xiao Baozi has been getting along with Zhongli Ruoshui day and night these days, and he really likes this girl from the bottom of his heart——
As beautiful as the person walking out of the painting!
She is still the daughter of Zhongli Mansion!
But she doesn't have any of the pretentiousness of the eldest lady.
Zhongli Ruoshui's temperament is extremely approachable.
She clearly knew that she and Li Chenan rode on the same donkey all the way from Jiangnan, but she didn't show any displeasure.
She behaved extremely generously and even gave herself some heartfelt instructions.
This made Xiao Baozi, who never cared about other people's thoughts, feel a little guilty.
He felt as if he had stolen Zhongli Ruoshui's cattle.
What's more, after seeing Zhongli Ruoshui's business skills, Xiao Baozi admired Zhongli Ruoshui even more.
"Sister Ruoshui,"
"Um?"
"The mountain road is steep and difficult to navigate. Prime Minister, this mountain road is very stable. You can ride on it."
Zhongli Ruoshui smiled lightly, "Thank you sister, I'd better take a walk."
"The mountain road is very long. I'm afraid it will tire you."
"It doesn't matter. If you can still walk now, just walk first. If you really can't walk after a while, I won't be polite to you."
Xiao Baozi pursed his lips and said, "Okay, then walk slower, don't be in a hurry."
"Hurry up, hurry up, those flowers are blooming there."
Li Chenan supported Zhongli Ruoshui and walked slowly.
The peach blossoms on both sides of the mountain road are already in full bloom.
Looking around, there are flowers nearby, pine trees in the distance, and mountains like daisy in the distance.
Zhongli Ruoshui was very happy.
It's not that I saw these peach blossoms, but that I accompanied Li Chenan for a spring outing.
In this life, if nothing unexpected happens, I can spend two more springs with Li Chen.
She cherishes it very much, so even though the mountain road is rugged, she insists on accompanying Li Chenan.
"There are no peach trees in Xishan."
"I heard from my father that about twenty years ago, Zhongli Mansion entered Shuzhou. After eliminating some toasts and bandits and establishing a firm foothold, they built the Zhongli Garden in Chongqing Mansion."
"Then, many peach blossoms were planted on this Western Mountain."
Zhongli Ruoshui said slowly as he walked:
"My father's implication is that there is Peach Blossom Mountain and Peach Blossom Island in Guangling City. Planting peach trees on the west mountain of Chongqing Mansion will have the meaning of echoing from the north to the south."
"Actually, I think it's probably because of grandma."
"Grandma's name is Taohua."
"The peach blossoms on the Peach Blossom Mountain in Guangling City were planted by Grandpa Wu Xichen."
"The peach blossoms on Peach Blossom Island were planted by Shang Di Shang."
"Only the peach blossoms in the Western Mountains were planted by Zhongli Mansion himself."
I was a little tired from walking.
Li Chenan helped Zhong Li Ruoshui to a small pavilion on the roadside. She took a handkerchief from her sleeve pocket and wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said:
"But I found a problem."
"what is the problem?"
"My grandma herself has never planted a peach tree."
Li Chenan was startled, "She is the most beautiful peach blossom. If other people plant it because of her, she naturally doesn't need to plant it herself."
Zhongli Ruoshui pondered for a moment and nodded, "Maybe it's what you said."
"Let's continue climbing."
"Don't you want to take a break?"
"Rest while walking... The bones in my body are really useless!"
Li Chenan grasped Zhongli Ruoshui's hand tightly, "Don't talk nonsense, do you really think that every woman is as strong as Miss Xiao?"
As soon as Xiao Baozi heard this, he turned to look at Li Chenan and said, "Is it wrong to say something to Li Chenan that this girl is tough?"
After thinking about Zhongli Ruoshui's weakness, she finally just glared at Li Chenan.
She discovered a problem——
Weak girls are more likely to be protected by men!
If you're like me... Li Chen'an probably wants me to carry him!
Ning Chuchu followed Xiao Baozi. She listened silently, watched silently, and waited silently.
This is late April.
That damn bald donkey from Wu Xishan should be here in the next few days.
When Li Chenan no longer had the rumored identity of the emperor's eldest son...
Ning Chuchu was startled. How should she get closer to Li Chenan?
It's not that the distance between the two is close.
It's about spiritual proximity.
Just like Zhongli Ruoshui and Li Chenan, they have become one with each other.
Just like Sister Xiao and Li Chenan, they are so natural and casual, so close to each other.
She felt that there was an invisible barrier between herself and Li Chenan, and Li Chenan had never been as close to her as he was to them.
Even talking was minimal.
This... Ning Chuchu bit her lip, feeling suddenly frustrated.
Zhongli Ruohua, who was following Ning Chuchu, was very quiet today.
She only occasionally looked up at her sister, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
She also occasionally looked at Li Chen'an, and felt that if her sister was not sick, and if her brother-in-law was always by her side, and he was not a regent, he could often accompany her on sightseeing trips, and take herself with him, which would be the best thing. of.
Unfortunately there is no if.
It won't be long before they leave.
I will still stay in Shuzhou and grow up slowly.
ten years!
What will the situation be like in ten years?
The little girl has more thoughts and less childishness.
Even the butterflies flying among the wild flowers on the roadside did not attract her attention.
After walking and stopping along the way, it took almost two hours for Li Chenan and his party to reach the top of the mountain.
Zhongli Ruoshui did not ride a donkey.
She really just walked up.
His face was a little pale.
There were fine beads of sweat on his forehead.
But the smile on her face was very bright.
She saw this large peach blossom on the top of the mountain.
She turned to look at Li Chenan and smiled playfully:
"Can there be a poem here?"
Li Chenan pondered for three breaths and then recited:
"The beauty of April in this world is gone,
The peach blossoms in the mountain temple begin to bloom.
Ever regretful that there is no place to return in spring,
I don’t know where to turn into this. "
Zhongli Ruoshui's eyes lit up, this poem suited the situation and his own heart!
"The beauty of April in the world is gone, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple are beginning to bloom..."
The girl wandered among the peach trees. Through a large area of pink peach blossoms, she could see the Jishan Temple faintly in the distance.
Li Chenan followed Zhongli Ruoshui. He didn't look at the peach blossoms. He kept looking at Zhongli Ruoshui's back.
There is still a poem in his heart, but he cannot recite it——
In this door last year today,
The peach blossoms on the human face complement each other in red.
I don’t know where the human face is going,
Love and be loved!
This year, I can still accompany Zhongli Ruoshui to enjoy the peach blossoms.
But what about next year?
What about the year after tomorrow?
There are peach blossoms every year, can she still be there every year?
There is a large open space outside Jishan Temple.
There are several tables, chairs, and umbrellas in the open space.
But there was no sun today, but a light rain fell.
The light rain moistened the peach blossoms, making them even more delicate and beautiful.
The light rain also moistened Zhongli Ruoshui's hair, making her look even more delicate.
Li Chenan took Zhongli Ruoshui and sat at the table under the umbrella. Zhongli Ruoshui's maid Qin'er had already taken a cloak and put it on Zhongli Ruoshui.
at this time.
Xiao Baozi suddenly raised his head.
The sea turtle hovered in the air above her head and let out three high-pitched chirps.
