Hou Mansion has a daughter to marry

Chapter 241 Idle Days
An inconspicuous and secluded courtyard in the capital.

Four or five people were sitting around the table, they couldn't see their expressions clearly, they could only vaguely hear, "Xiao Yu and his party are going to the Zhuangzi, I think it's better to ambush them on the way back."

One of them shook his head and said: "Because Xiao Yu encountered bandits on that road before, I think we have taken precautions this time. If we go, we will just fall into a trap."

A dejected man stammered: "Then what should we do...there are only a few of us left, if we miss one blow, we can only feel ashamed of my elder brother..."

The man who just shook his head suddenly had dark eyes, flashing a bloodthirsty cold light, "Naturally, they will be hit with one blow, and they will be powerless... Don't worry, no one knows where we are, and we are lurking for a while, waiting They're all off guard..."

The moon here is not like Zhuangzi's moon. It is cold and red, with shadows and shadows, which always makes people feel uneasy and foreboding. Even in the sluggish summer, I feel a bit cold.

Silent all night.

The Concubine Zhongqin and the Concubine Zhongqin were older, they were not greedy for sleep, and Ping Zhaoxue woke up early because they had nothing to do, so they walked around with Mrs. Ping and the Concubine Zhongqin. They are not gossiping women who like to gossip, and everything they think about is their children's business.

Seeing Ping Zhaoxue who was Wen Wan walking beside Mrs. Ping, the loyal princess became more and more satisfied the more she watched, but she had no other intentions. She was also happy to see Kou Lianyi. Zhaoxue hit it off, and couldn't help but praise: "Mrs. Xie is blessed. When Miss Ping enters the door in the future, she will be able to take off the burden from her shoulders."

Politeness is the daily life of official wives, but Mrs. Ping can hear that the loyal princess is from the bottom of her heart, she smiled and looked at the shy Ping Zhaoxue, and said modestly: "The princess is too proud, my girl is mediocre, I can thank Mrs. His Excellency Xie favors the good deeds of his ancestors, but there are still many deficiencies at present, in the future he must live well and listen to Mrs. Xie's teachings."

Because the marriage agreement of the two families was established, Mrs. Ping no longer kept it hidden, and only treated it with a normal heart.

Concubine Zhongqin smiled, "Madam Ping, don't be too modest, Miss Ping is very good-looking and temperamental, I can't see any shortcomings, but Madam Xie is also easy to get along with, and she will always be there in the future." Blessed man."

Excessive modesty is hypocrisy. People from a scholarly family always have a good grasp of their psychology. Mrs. Ping smiled gently and changed the subject: "Then Xiao Shizi and Princess Yuying are also envious of others. When they enter the mansion in the future, I think it will be more lively .”

Concubine Zhongqin deeply felt the same about this, and said with emotion: "Lianyi is a rambunctious one, but his temper is also very good, and I feel a lot of joy when I look at it all day long, as long as the two of them are in the same heart."

Hearing the two of you coming and going, the princess of Yan County who seemed to be left out couldn't help interjecting: "The Princess Yuying looked like a pungent person, I don't want to see that although she was happy yesterday, she behaved well. The rumors are misleading.”

Mrs. Ping seemed to agree with her, and Princess Zhongqin felt the same way. In the past, the Anjun Prince's Mansion and Prince Zhong's Mansion were surrounded by indiscriminate gossip and rumors. It was really annoying. She immediately nodded and said: "Rumours are more than just harmful , powerful, it can also kill people.”

Unknowingly, a few people walked to the rustling bamboo grove, where the end of the slim and tall bamboos could not be seen, the eyes were green and green, and the tip of the nose was full of bamboo fragrance. After the breeze passed, the whole body felt refreshed, as if no matter how warm the golden crows outside were, as long as You can also feel at ease in this bamboo forest.

Several people were wandering in the bamboo sea, and the loyal princess suddenly regretted: "This situation needs to be icing on the cake with the music of silk and bamboo orchestra."

Originally said something subconsciously, but she didn't want to but got a response. Ping Zhaoxue took off the moon-white flute that blended with her clothes from her waist, and said with a gentle smile: "Princess, if you don't dislike it, Zhaoxue will make a fool of herself."

Seeing Ping Zhaoxue "come prepared", Princess Zhongqin was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "It's too late for me to be happy, so why don't I dislike anything."

The melodious sound of the flute rises with the wind passing through the bamboo grove, it is not the lingering lingering in the boudoir, it is crisp and melodious, like the song of a yellow warbler, like a girl's words, indescribably vivid and lively, suddenly and ethereal, floating in the river, endlessly , like a fairy in Qionglou Yuyu who is contented, only to see, but not to meet.

This room was listening to the sound of the flute like a dream, but the other room was noisy.

When it comes to making noise, no one can beat Kou Lianyi. He was originally a showy person, but when he came to Zhuangzi, he became a farmer's urchin. He completely liberated his nature. The eagle in the sky, only you can't think of it, no Kou Lianyi can't do it.

Because Xie Changan wanted to make Xiao Ruochen relax this time, so that he wouldn't become a little old man at a young age, as long as he was safe and sound, he would let him go.

No matter how old Xiao Ruochen is, he is still a half-grown naive, and he can't resist the temptation of new things, not to mention Kou Lianyi's strong encouragement. Lianyi went there, and Xiao Yuan made an appointment with Xiao Yuan today to "hunt in the mountains".

Because Li Ruoyu had something to do today, he was afraid that something would be wrong on the mountain, so he asked Xie Bin to go instead.Xie Bin could not help but listen to it, and immediately agreed, and the few people set off in a "major and mighty" manner after eating breakfast.

Xie Chang'an and the others who stayed at home organized the "Word Competition Conference" in an arty way.

The few people didn't pay much attention, they just ordered the housekeeper to set up a few simple desks under the shade of the tree, and added the Four Treasures of the Study, and the rest of them played their own roles.

Regardless of whether it is due to the uneven attainments of several people, Yan Qinglan needless to say, is a master of all kinds, no matter what, Xie Changan, who used to practice piano, chess, calligraphy and painting for 3 minutes, can only be far behind. It's not bad to get it. In this way, they can play with their own will, each get their own place, and compete for beauty.

"Okay, now that everything is ready, let's start, it's only a quarter of an hour."

The four of them looked at each other and smiled, and the pens were drawn up immediately, whether they were elegant, or graceful, or the pens wandered around, each had its own merits, which made the maids who were waiting on the side also gain knowledge. pleasing to the eye.

When the faithful prince and concubine came back from leisure, the four of them just stopped and put their pens down and smiled, but they didn't care about the outcome, they just went to the side to marry, where Liu Guanshi ordered someone to make tea, the tea was fragrant and quiet, which complemented the present.

Ping Zhaoxue looked around, but she didn't see Xie Bin. There seemed to be disappointment in her brows and eyes, but she didn't show it. She just followed Mrs. Ping's side step by step, and they also went to the tea table.

Seeing the servant girl put the ink-dried rice paper together for comparison, Princess Zhongqin looked at it carefully, then smiled and looked at the four people with lazy expressions, and joked: "Why don't you meet friends with poetry in the capital? Hui has become elegant, and this reputation can't be spread to the capital."

No wonder Princess Zhongqin said so, there is no such thing as poetry and song in the capital, and the noble ladies or sons attending the meeting did not take it as an elegant thing to make friends with, but it was just a good opportunity to gain fame , or for official career, or to choose a good marriage for it.And there are very few people like the Ping family who don't call Ping Zhaoxue's reputation indiscriminately.

Yan Qinglan is a truly elegant person, with orchids and jade trees inside and outside, and said with a smile: "It's just a momentary pastime... The concubine came just in time. Right now we still lack someone to judge, not only whether the concubine can..."

Hearing Yan Qinglan's words, without waiting for Yan Qinglan's words to come to an end, Princess Zhongqin hurriedly waved her hands and said, "I'm just a woman, so I don't know anything about elegance. If I do it indiscriminately, it won't make others laugh. Is Yan Shizi still another person?" Please be smart! Hey, Mrs. Ping thinks she is very insightful, why not invite Mrs. Ping to judge for you guys."

"My concubine's words are wrong. It doesn't matter whether you have opinions or not. You just need to look at the joy." Mrs. Ping's eyes lingered on the words of several people, and she thought for a while: "If not, we don't have to. Judging what is superior, the four of us look at which character we are happy with, that is the character we married, and it doesn’t matter if we repeat it, the left and right are excellent characters.”

Xiao Yu smiled, and deliberately belittled himself and said: "With my superficial writing skills, I think there is no hope." His aggrieved eyes fell on Xie Changan's face, like a child begging for sugar, "If I turn pale in a while, you can Be nice to coax me."

Xie Chang'an was helpless, glanced at Xiao Yu and then paid no attention to it. Others laughed it off, but he was envious in his heart, being able to get along with each other freely was something everyone dreamed of.

Du Dao's writing is just like the person, but it is true. Yan Qinglan's writing is like a spring breeze blowing on the face and blooming flowers, but it does not lose its muscles and bones, and it is like a plum standing proudly in the cold winter.The meaning of Xiao Yu's word is unrestrained and unrestrained, like the clouds rolling and relaxing in the sky, swimming leisurely with the breeze, with a turbulent posture, how can there be a wonderful word in it.

Xie Changning is the gentle and soft hairpin lowercase script, with round but not cumbersome strokes, like a graceful beauty, not charming, but gentle and subtle, showing the tenderness of a girl.Xie Chang'an is quite different from it. His pen moves like a dragon, majestic, but somewhat sharp and ethereal, as if hiding between mountains and rivers, and as if flying in the nine heavens, invisible but ubiquitous.

The mother and daughter of the Ping family have never seen the characters written by a few people, but when they look at them now, they are secretly amazed, each has its own merits, but it is difficult to choose, especially the characters written by Xie Changan, both mother and daughter are very curious, and their eyes are scrutinized. There are a few people, but they can't see why, and they don't know who wrote it.

The Princess of Yan County glanced at it, but she went straight to the word Xie Chang'an, which was related to her temperament, and Princess Zhongqin chose the word Xie Changning as expected. What she thinks, but also what she likes.

Just as the mother and daughter of the Ping family were about to make a decision, the sound of messy and hasty footsteps sounded, and the eager "Doctor Li" fell heavily on everyone's hearts. They didn't care what words to choose for a moment, and they all quickly got up and followed the sound. .
