Chapter 8 Chapter 7 The Scholarly Fragrance Comes Silently

Time passed quietly, and it was golden autumn in a blink of an eye. On this day, Qingling was reading in the study, and suddenly smelled a faint scent of cinnamon. She couldn't help but looked up, and saw Fang Jia coming in with a bottle of osmanthus. "If the princess is tired of reading, smelling the cinnamon will refresh her." Fang Jia placed the osmanthus vase on her desk. Qingling smelled the sweet-scented osmanthus and was really happy in her heart. She stretched out her hand and picked up the leaves, and said, "Where did Fang Lingyi find this sweet-scented osmanthus? There seems to be no sweet-scented osmanthus in the garden."

Fang Jia looked at the princess who seemed to be looking at the sweet-scented osmanthus with interest, his heart moved, and said: "In the morning, the slave girl came out of the garden to discuss with the madam, who knew she was not in the room, and only after asking did she find out that she had gone to the sweet-scented osmanthus garden , so the maidservant went to look for her in Guiyuan. When she got there, it was a big piece of Guilin, but it was really beautiful with emerald green leaves and thousands of yellow stars! The lady was leading people to pick osmanthus flowers to make wine. The maidservant smelled it. That osmanthus was reluctant to leave, and followed Madam and the others to pick osmanthus flowers for a long time, when she finally left, Madam remembered that there were no osmanthus flowers in the garden, so she asked the maidservant to bring a bottle back to the princess for a look."

"Oh?" Qingling's gaze shifted from the sweet-scented osmanthus to Fang Jia, "Where is the sweet-scented osmanthus garden?" Fang Jia was waiting for her words, and hurriedly said: "The Osmanthus Garden is just to the east of the Hou's Mansion. It's a big area, and no one passes by, so it's very quiet." Looking at Qingling's expression, he said: "Princess, can you leave me alone?" Do you want to see it? At this moment, the osmanthus is in full bloom, and after a while, the flowers will be gone." Qingling looked at Fang Jia for a moment, then smiled slightly, and said, "Forget it, let's go and have a look, otherwise it will not disappoint Fang Lingyi's heart."

Fang Jia was overjoyed when he heard the words, "Your maidservant, go get ready now." After saying that, she stepped out. "Fang Lingyi." Qingling called her from behind, got up and walked out at the same time, "Don't lead a large group of people, just you and Kong Zhao accompany me." "This..." Fang Jia hesitated. "If you want to bring a large group of people out of the garden, should you go to enjoy the flowers, or let someone come and admire us?" Qingling said lightly and went forward. "Then let's call him the Minister of the Imperial Palace." Fang Jia chased after him.

Qingling nodded. So, Fang Jia ordered someone to call Mu Yu and Kong Zhao, and the three of them came out of the garden accompanied by Qingling. This is Qingling's first time stepping out of Dexin Garden. Fang Jia doesn't want to disturb the people in the mansion. There will definitely be people watching and peeping along the way. If the princess is unhappy and she goes back to the garden, all the previous efforts will be in vain. , so I picked up the secluded road and walked peacefully all the way to Guiyuan. Qingling was really happy when she arrived in Guiyuan.This osmanthus garden is very vast, with tall osmanthus trees and flourishing osmanthus flowers. At first glance, the criss-crossing and criss-crossing is very messy, but at a glance, I feel that the flower branches are stretched very neatly. After watching for a while, Qingling can see some features, Can't help whispering: "The person who planted sweet-scented osmanthus is very thoughtful."

"Why are you so thoughtful?" Fang Jia couldn't help being surprised when she heard the words. She stayed here for an hour or two in the morning, but she didn't think there was anything special about the way the osmanthus tree was planted. It was just planted in the soil with the same long leaves. flowering. Qing Ling smiled, but did not answer. Kong Zhao looked at the many sweet-scented osmanthus and said, "Princess, these sweet-scented osmanthus are even better than those in Jixue Garden. I'll pick some back and make you sweet-scented osmanthus tea." Before she could answer, she had already wrapped up her skirt to pick the sweet-scented osmanthus went.

Qingling didn't call her, she walked slowly in Guilin, the autumn wind was rustling, the cinnamon fragrance was fragrant, the surrounding was quiet, only the rustling of flowers and leaves, she couldn't help but relax physically and mentally for a moment, feeling extraordinarily at ease Comfortable. Since entering the Marquis Mansion, it has been a long time since he has been in such a state of mind. Fang Jia and Mu Tai walked lightly and followed the princess from a distance, not to disturb her. Walking into the depths of Guilin, Qingling stopped suddenly, looked around, and found that there were four osmanthus trees scattered in the southeast, northwest, and four directions. She couldn't help but whispered to herself: "It's true."

Fang Jia and Mu Yu heard from behind, looked at each other blankly, and then Mu Yu asked, "Princess, is there anything special about this Guilin?" Qingling answered this time, "This Guilin was planted according to the 'Taiyitian style'." "What is that?" Fang and Mu were at a loss again. "I have seen this method in a book "Xiu Mu Ji", which talks about how to plant the flowers and trees so that the sunlight, earth air, and water dew can be evenly distributed, so as to help them grow into forests." Qingling explained briefly road.

"Oh." Fang Jia and Mu Ji suddenly realized, but they didn't expect that planting a tree would be a little bit particular. "If you want to use the 'Taiyi Tian Style', you have to turn Xuanji and Yuheng upside down. The gardener in the palace once wanted to plant plum trees in this way, but unfortunately he didn't know Xuanji and Yuheng, so it couldn't work. Unexpectedly, there is someone in the Hou's mansion who understands this. In this way, Guilin is so prosperous, and the 'Taiyi Tianshi' is of great use." Qingling said leisurely. Another gust of autumn wind blows, blowing the flowers and trees rustling, and suddenly thousands of stars and yellows fall down, like a drizzle, and there are people in the rain like jade, plain clothes bearing flowers, and delicate fragrance dyed their sleeves.

Looking at the princess standing quietly under the flower tree, Fang Jia and Mu Yu somehow remembered a line of poem: Wandering under the fragrant tree, half buried by falling flowers. Qingling raised her head slightly, stretched out her hand, and dropped a few sweet-scented osmanthus flowers on her palm. Fang Jia and Mu Tai quietly looked at the princess who looked more elegant under the falling flowers, and suddenly felt that a person like her should be independent from the world, and how could she get involved in the dust of the world. "I don't know who planted this Guilin." Qingling looked at the sweet-scented osmanthus in her palm and sighed softly as if talking to herself.

Fang Jia thought for a while, and said: "I remember that when the slaves saw the osmanthus garden in the morning, they also sighed that the flowers and trees were flourishing. After hearing this, the madam said that the Guilin was planted by the leader of the second son." "Oh?" Qingling held Luohua in her palm and looked back at her. "The madam also said that the second son likes to play with flowers and plants on weekdays. Almost all the flowers and trees in this mansion are in the hands of the second son. He also set up a medicine garden in the back garden and planted a lot of herbs. People in the mansion If you are sick, you don't need to go to the pharmacy to get medicine." Fang Jia said again. medicine garden... Qingling's hand trembled, and the flower in her palm fell from between her fingers, wilting in the dust.Turning around and continuing to walk through, the originally relaxed and peaceful state of mind added a trace of boredom for no reason. "It's a pity that I didn't bring the piano out." Can't help but sigh. "I'll go back and get it, slave girl." Mu Yu hurriedly said. "No need." Qingling shook her head, "I've already seen Guiyuan, go back, and bring your piano when you visit next time." Fang Jia and Mu Yu were overjoyed when they heard the words, they finally found a way to let the princess walk around the garden. So he called Kong Zhao, and the four of them walked out of the forest. When they were about to leave the forest, Fang Jia saw that the princess was in a good mood, so she said: "Princess, since you have come out, why don't you look at other scenery? There are some places in the Hou's mansion." It's all pretty unique." Qingling raised her eyes to look at Fang Jia and Mu Yu, seeing them looking at her expectantly, she couldn't help nodding, "That's fine." Fang Jia and Mu Yu were very happy when they heard the words, and immediately went forward to lead the way.Along the way, he introduced where this is the Hou Mansion, where this is, what is the purpose of this place, and what is the purpose of that place... Leading Qingling to walk around and have a look, more than half an hour passed like this.Although I occasionally met some servants of the Marquis Mansion, those people were stunned and unable to move when they saw the princess, and they couldn't regain their senses after they passed by.Fang Jia and Mu Yu didn't blame these people for being ignorant of etiquette. To be honest, they really hoped that these people would keep silent and move like a log, which was better than staring at the princess with strange and excited faces.If that's the case, I'm afraid the princess will never leave the garden again next time. The layout of the Hou's mansion is indeed very elegant, and the ingenuity can be seen everywhere, it does not seem to be from the hands of warriors like Weiyuanhou.Mu Jie explained that this mansion was originally the mansion of King Bai of the previous dynasty, and later the Marquis of Weiyuan granted the title of Marquis Ci's mansion to move in here, and it was only slightly repaired, and the layout remained unchanged. Later, I walked to a clear and sparkling pond with dead lotus and leaves on it. On the opposite side of the pond was a verdant bamboo forest. A loft stood upright amidst the green bamboo, which was particularly conspicuous.Qingling stopped and asked, "Where is this?" Mu Yu replied: "This is the study room of the Hou's mansion. According to the people in the mansion, idlers are not allowed to enter this study room. Only the two young masters often come to this study room. Lord Hou rarely uses it." "Oh?" Qing Ling heard that it was a study room, and her mind moved. Then she saw that the building was three floors high and had a wide layout, and there must be a lot of books in it. "Can I go and have a look?" "Princess, of course." Mu Yu hurriedly said. So I went around the pond, passed through the bamboo forest, and arrived in front of the building. Liubailou. The name of the building is elegant, but the three characters on the plaque in front of the building are imposing with iron pen and silver hook. "The name of this library was chosen by the second son, but this plaque was inscribed by the son-in-law." Mu Xi explained again. Pushing the door open and entering the building, there was a smell of books, looking up and looking around, the room was full of books, a faint smile could not help but float on Qingling's face. "A lot of books." "Are these three floors full of books? Aren't there more books than Jixueyuan?" Kong Zhao also looked curiously at the Nuoda library. "I don't know how many books are there in the Langhuan Pavilion in the palace?" Qingling asked while walking around the building. Fang Jia smiled when she heard the words, it seemed that the princess was still obsessed with the collection of books in the palace. "The maidservant once went to Langyu Pavilion with the fifth prince, and it was dozens of times bigger than this building." Mu Chen replied. "Oh?" Qingling glanced at him.When walking past a row of bookshelves in front of the window, he picked up a book at random, but it turned out to be "On the Hundred Wars of the Eastern Dynasty". The author of the book was Kun Wudan, the historian known as "Sword and Pen" of this dynasty.This collection of books is not available in Xueyuan, and Qingling has never read it before, so she opened the book right away. Seeing her movements, Kong Zhao hurriedly stepped forward to close the book and took it in his hand, saying: "Princess likes this book, so I'll take it back to Dexin Garden to read it, it's almost the time of application, so it's inconvenient to read it here. " Qingling didn't insist, and gave her the book, and looked downstairs, except for the desk and chair with the four treasures of the study in front of the left window, the rest of the building was neatly arranged in rows. There were bookshelves neatly stacked, and she went to the second and third floors to look around. The layout was the same as that on the first floor, which made her very happy.When she left the library, she said to Mu Ji: "Neidichen, go and tell Lord Hou that I want to borrow his book." "Yes." Mu Yu agreed. After leaving the study building, Kong Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, and Fang Jia couldn't help asking, "Why were you nervous just now?" Kong Zhao sighed and said, "Fang Lingyi, you don't know the habits of the princess. She has read all the books in Dexin Garden's study, so she reads them for a while, but the princess has never read the book just now. , if we let her watch it, then we don't have to leave this building today." "Oh?" Fang Jia was dubious.It's just that after returning to Dexin Garden, she really saw what it means to be a bookworm. On that day, after Qingling returned to Dexin Garden, she never left the book, and Kong Zhao fed her meals, but she didn't realize it herself, which made Fang Jia and Mu Yu lament the charm of this book.And when she was reading, her face was full of expressions. Sometimes her eyebrows stretched and her lips smiled, sometimes her eyebrows were condensed and her lips were tightly pursed, sometimes she looked very disapproving, and sometimes she was very angry... Fang Jia, While watching, Mu Yu thought to himself, if the princess is willing to show half of the expression of reading in front of others, the people in the Hou Mansion will not think that she is a cold jade beauty. In the middle of the night, it was Kong Zhao who took a little effort to pull the book out of Qingling's hand, turned off the light, and then drove her to bed. The second day was spent in the study again. It took Qingling three days to finish that book, which greatly exceeded the time she used to read a book, which made Kong Zhao very surprised. On the fourth day, Kong Zhao didn't see the princess in the room after breakfast, so he went to the study with a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus tea. When he arrived at the study room, he saw the princess sitting on the table reading a book, but it was still the same book, holding a pen in her hand, writing something on the book, which surprised Kong Zhao again.In the past, when reading a book, no matter how wonderful the article was, the princess would only admire it, but never left a pen and ink in the book. "Princess, what kind of book is this? It makes you so interested." She put the tea on the table. "This is Kun Wudan's article on the hundreds of famous battles in the previous dynasty, and he really deserves the title of 'Sword and Pen'." Qingling replied. "Then what are you writing?" Kong Zhao poured a cup of tea and put it in front of her. Qingling put the pen on the shelf, a faint smile floated on her lips. "Although Kun Wudan's article only represents his own point of view, the words are precise and avoid hitting the nail on the head. More than a hundred wars in his pen have clearly distinguished merits and demerits. One cannot help but suppress his arrogance." "Oh?" Kong Zhao was a little curious, "Who is talking so much?" Qing Ling just smiled and didn't answer, closed the book, picked up the teacup, smelled it, and said: "The cinnamon fragrance is very faint, it doesn't hide the fragrance of the tea." "Of course." Kong Zhao forgot the question just now when the princess praised the fragrance of the tea, "I washed the sweet-scented osmanthus, soaked it in water, and then used that water to make tea. The fragrance will naturally be lighter." After drinking tea, Qingling picked up the book and went out. Kong Zhao hurriedly followed, "Princess, where are you going?" "Go to the library." Qingling replied as she walked. "Then wait, I'll call Fang Lingyi." Kong Zhao chased after him. Qing Ling stopped and looked back at her, "There's no need to call them, you just follow me, it's only in this mansion, why do you want so many people to follow you?" "Is this... appropriate?" Kong Zhao hesitated.According to Fang Lingyi's teaching to her, the princess needs at least five or six people to accompany her when she travels. "I don't like so many people following. If you call people, I won't use anything you make from tomorrow on." Qingling left without saying a word. Miss Kong Zhao is not afraid of anyone, even King Anyu and Marquis Weiyuan, she can face people with majesty and dignity, but she is afraid that the princess will not like her and ignore her.So the sentence "I don't use anything you make anymore" made her dispel the idea of ​​calling people, and she never has it again. The two quietly left Dexin Garden and arrived at Liubai Building. Qingling found the place where she picked up the book last time and put the book back, then took out another one beside her, and put it in her hand when she saw that she hadn't read it, and then went to get another one. Recalling Fang Lingyi and Nei Dichen's instructions to "lead the princess out of the garden more often", she stepped forward and took the two books from the princess' hands, leaving the first one behind and putting the other back in its original place. "Princess, if you bring all the books back to Dexin Garden, then Master Hou will not be able to find them if he needs to use them in time. It's better to take one at a time." Qingling glanced at Kong Zhao, but didn't insist. She looked around the library and returned to Dexin Garden. When the three of them passed the garden, they met Qiu Yiyao. "Where is Second Young Master going?" Mu Yu greeted him with a smile.Before he entered the palace, his father had taught him to read and write. After he entered the palace, he was assigned to the Mingjing Hall, where the princes studied, so he also read some poems and essays. Although he was a servant, he also said that He was selected as the attendant of Princess Chenhua because of his literary and quality.It has been more than a month since the princess came to the Hou's mansion, and his daily contact made him very fond of this second son who is knowledgeable, knowledgeable and gentle. "Go to the study." Qiu Yiyao replied simply, and greeted the three of them one by one. Thinking about her husband's words last night, Gu Shi knew that it was important for him to go to the study, so she said, "Can you send lunch to the study?" "Qiu Jia will send it over at that time, mother, don't worry about it." Qiu Yiyao replied with her head slightly lowered.He doesn't like crowns. His long hair hangs behind him and is tied with a hair ring. The hair on the side of the ears between the hanging head is slightly tilted. His hair is black and his face is white, like dark clouds covering the moon. It makes people want to reach out and brush his hair for him. desire. "Well, you take care of yourself." Gu raised her hand lovingly and brushed his hair, "You must know that every time you get sick, mother will feel uncomfortable." "En." Qiu Yiyao looked at Gu Shi gently and smiled, then nodded slightly to Fang Jia and Mu Tai, then turned and left. After the three watched him leave, Fang Jia and Mu Yi returned to Dexin Garden, and Mrs. Gu returned to Deming Garden. In front of the book building with dense phoenix tails, Qiu Yi pushed the door away, and the room was quiet and full of the fragrance of books. He walked past the bookshelf, took out the books he needed, and when he passed the row of bookshelves in front of the window, he found that the book "On the Hundred Wars of the Eastern Dynasty" seemed to have been moved, so he couldn't help but reach out and take it, flipping through it casually, and saw the newly added book. He couldn't help being startled by the ink stains, and then looked carefully for a while. After a while, he turned over a few more times, and sure enough, he added some ink stains. Looking at the comments above, he couldn't help but smile.He closed the book, gently stroked the corner of the book with his fingertips, and then gently put it back to the original place. Seeing that there was a book missing next to him, he pondered for a while, then pulled out the book next to the empty place, raised his hand from the side A book was drawn from the bookshelf and placed on it. Moved to find all the books he needed, sat down at the desk, and read carefully. On that day, Qiu Jia delivered the lunch and dinner to the study building. He didn't turn off the lights of the study building until the mid-moon and night wind was freezing. Instead of going back to the room directly, he went to Deming Garden first. In the front hall of Deming Garden, Qiu Yuanshan was pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, with a suspicious and worried expression on his face.Seeing Qiu Yiyao's arrival, he couldn't help but brighten his eyes, and asked hopefully, "Yao'er, how is it?" "Yeah." Qiu Yiyao nodded to hide her tiredness, while taking out a white silk from her sleeve and handing it to her father, the white silk was neatly folded, faintly stained with ink. "I have found the origin of Yuan Rong's formation. It is exactly as my brother expected. It is to choose several odd formations to complement each other. I have written one of them, and I have also thought of some ways to defeat the enemy. Attached , can be used as a reference for my brother." "Oh?" Qiu Yuanshan took it and opened it, and immediately beamed with joy, "I've been thinking about it for my father for two days, but I can't come up with a solution! Yao'er, thank you for your hard work." Qiu Yiyao shook her head, comforted her father and said, "Don't worry too much, Daddy, brother will be fine." "Well, my father will send this letter with a spark order now!" Qiu Yuanshan patted his son on the shoulder, turned around and strode out. Looking at the back of his father walking away, Qiu Yiyao breathed a sigh of relief, then left and returned to his residence, Deyi Garden.The night wind in late autumn was extremely cold. After a day of exhaustion, I was extremely tired. When I was blown by the wind, I suddenly felt that the coldness was unbearable. It was a cough. Can't help but smile wryly, the most difficult winter for him is coming again. Although Fang Jia and Mu Yu changed their ways to let the princess go out of the garden more, Qingling did as they wished and no longer lived in Dexin Garden.It's just that she didn't go to many places, that is, the Liubai Building in the bamboo forest, the osmanthus garden in the east, and the stone paths and gardens she passed along the way.The servants in the mansion have met her many times, and they were always amazed on the spot, bragging about it with others after returning, so that every time Qingling came out of the garden, they encountered more and more servants along the way.I don't know if it's the awe of the princess or the admiration for the beauty, although there are many people, but they just watch quietly, which doesn't make Qing Ling feel bored, so she just let it go. Beautiful people are always easy to make people feel good.The servants in the Hou's mansion felt that although the princess looked a bit cold, she always went to the library and the osmanthus garden. She must be very knowledgeable, and her character must be as light and clean as the sweet-scented osmanthus.So, gradually, she developed a love for the princess again, but she didn't dare to approach her. Some people like it, and some people hate it. Nothing is perfect in this world. Miss Lu Yinan's dislike for the princess who was praised by the servants of the Hou's mansion was getting worse and worse. On this day, Kong Zhao accompanied the princess to the study building again, and met Miss Lu in the garden. Although they were walking along a road with a few feet of chrysanthemum bushes in between, Miss Lu ignored her.Qing Ling was fine, but Kong Zhao was very upset.Even if you don't salute the princess, you should at least have a smiling face or a nod.However, this girl Lu held her head high and her chest up, completely ignoring the princess!How rude!Kong Zhao was very angry, but seeing that the princess walking ahead didn't seem to notice, he didn't say anything, just followed lightly. When she arrived at the library, Qingling put the book back to its original place, then took the book next to it, opened it, there was another book with comments, and took the next one, it was not. really. She touched the edge of the book with her fingertips and smiled slightly. "Princess, what's the matter?" Kong Zhao couldn't help asking when she saw her laughing for no reason. Qingling looked down at the book with her head down, the smile on her lips still remained, which made Kong Zhao even more curious. "Princess, what are you laughing at?" Qingling raised her head to look at Kong Zhao, which surprised Kong Zhao very much.How many times have I seen the princess have such obvious cheerful eyes, and the eyes are as bright as the crystal lamps, which are breathtaking. "Kong Zhao, didn't you ask who left the comments on my book?" Qingling turned the pages of the book, "These were all written by Qiu Yiting." "Oh." Kong Zhao understood, "The princess is happy because she saw the concubine's comment." Qingling shook her head slightly. "Ah?" Kong Zhao was puzzled again, "Then why is the princess happy?" Qingling was silent again, walked slowly, and then walked to the desk, and looked at the almost burnt candles on the lamp stand in front of the desk.He... stays here until very late every day?Every book she read was picked out by him? "Kong Zhao, who else do you think will come to this library?" she asked suddenly. "Master Hou." Kong Zhao answered as a matter of course. Qingling shook her head again, "Master Hou is not a reader." "Then... madam?" Kong Zhao didn't have much confidence in his answer. Qingling shook her head again, "Ma'am is even worse." "Ah, I see!" Kong Zhao's eyes lit up, thinking of someone, "It must be the second son, the second son who brought the princess back!" Qing Ling didn't speak a word this time, and looked through the window at the green bamboos outside the building, standing upright with dense phoenix tails. "Except for the second book, all the books I've read these days have comments from Qiu Yiting. There can't be so many coincidences. Someone must have done it." "Ah?" Kong Zhao was taken aback, and then asked, "Who did this? Why did he do it? Could it be... this person is the Second Young Master?" Qingling withdrew her gaze, then sat down at the desk, opened the book in her hand, and her eyes fell on the comments on that side. "Why do you do this?" He smiled slightly, but unconsciously frowned slightly, "A person's words and deeds will reveal this person's personality, preferences, and behavior style... He did this just because he wanted me to learn from these books. Learn more about Qiu Yiting from the comments on the Internet." "Oh?" Kong Zhao blinked, "He wants the princess to learn about the son-in-law from books, but so what if he knows the son-in-law?" Qingling stared at the ink on the book, "I have read so many comments of Qiu Yiting these days, and I can almost see what kind of person he is." Uh?Kong Zhao was still a little confused. "What kind of person is the son-in-law? So what if the princess understands?" "Qiuyi Pavilion..." A smile appeared on Qingling's lips again, "He is a proud and arrogant person." She summed it up in a concise sentence. ah?Kong Zhao stared.So... bad?How can you be worthy of a princess! But Qingling went on to say: "But at the same time, he is also a very smart and talented person. I have read so many books with his comments, which shows that he has read a lot of books, but he is not pedantic but has his own insights." , Yu has extraordinary acumen in military matters, and I think he is indeed like the rumors that he is an "excellent gifted general", and from these comments, it can be seen that he has a resolute character and acts decisively." "Then..." Kong Zhao blinked, "Isn't this pretty good, the shortcomings in the front are nothing compared to the ones in the back." "One more thing, he is ambitious and ambitious." Qingling added in a low voice. "Ambition? What kind of ambition?" Kong Zhao's eyes widened, and then he couldn't help being shocked when he thought of something, "Could it be that he wants to be emperor?" Puchi!Qingling smiled and shook her head. "What's that?" Kong Zhao turned his head and thought for a while, then clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Ah, I see, he must be planning to become the general that day!" Qingling didn't answer or refute when she heard the words, she just kept silent for a moment before slowly saying: "Compared to that, it should be more magnificent." "Ah?" Kong Zhao was taken aback.General Tiance isn't big enough?That is the position of one person under one person and above tens of millions of people in the dynasty. For more than two hundred years, there are only two people in total!One is the current emperor's younger brother, King Anyu.One is Huang Yu, His Royal Highness Prince Yun at the beginning of the founding of the country. After the death of Emperor Zhaoxi, he assisted the young Lord Yanzhi and protected the country for decades. Position, above the kings, the head of a hundred officials, commanding the soldiers and horses of the world. "'General Tiance' can exist in every dynasty, but what he wants to do is—— Qiuyi Pavilion—— the only one in the past and present! After thousands of generations, he is still glorious in history! His ambition is one. How can 'General Tiance' be tolerated." There was a smile in Qingling's eyes, which seemed to be admiration or emotion. "Ah..." Kong Zhao began to exclaim, "The son-in-law's ambition is really not small!" In her opinion, it was something she couldn't imagine. "So..." Qingling looked at Kong Zhao, "How do you feel about such a person?" Kong Zhao blushed a little, and replied naively: "The maidservant thinks the son-in-law is very good, very likable." Qingling smiled, but withered in an instant.Yes, Qiu Yiting is so good, it's natural to make people happy... "Then the second son read these books to the princess in the hope that the princess will fall in love with the son-in-law?" Kong Zhao suddenly felt blessed. Hearing this, Qingling suddenly felt tired, and the room full of books couldn't make her feel joyful and lighthearted. "Princess?" Kong Zhao looked at her in bewilderment, wondering why the princess who was still smiling just now withdrew her smile and darkened her eyes. "He is also well-intentioned." Qingling sighed quietly, then put down the book, got up and left the library. Kong Zhao hurriedly took the books on the table and followed her, looking at the princess in front of her, feeling at a loss.She is young and simple-minded, sometimes she can't understand what the princess said, and she can't see what the princess is thinking, but she doesn't care, as long as she can stay by the princess's side, she can watch the princess live comfortably , then she will be satisfied.But at this moment, it was the first time she had seen such a princess, which made her a little worried. Princess is not happy.She knew, though she didn't know why. This time, Qingling was not in a hurry to return to Dexin Garden, but walked casually along the forest path. After walking for a long time, she didn't know where she went. Suddenly, she smelled a bitter scent of herbs in her nose. With a move in my heart, I walked over a few steps, and I saw a medicine garden.It turned out that I walked to the back garden unknowingly. "Princess, this is the medicine garden that the Second Young Master planted." Although Kong Zhao didn't know the herbs, he could tell they were medicines by smelling them. Qingling stopped by the edge of the medicine garden, staring at the empty medicine garden, dazed. In the early morning of that day, surrounded by white mist and cool in the morning breeze, she came here following the fragrance of bitter herbs, and then met him. The situation that day was like a dream. That was the first time she saw him, and the only time she saw him since entering the mansion. "Princess?" Kong Zhao couldn't help calling softly when he saw her standing there blankly. "Let's go back." Qingling turned and left, walking hurriedly. Kong Zhao hurriedly followed. After returning to Dexin Garden, the rare Qingling did not stay in the study to read as usual, but took the piano to the most secluded plum garden in Dexin Garden, and played the piano for a long time in front of the plum trees in the garden. The previous song was the majestic "Order of the General", and the latter song was the mellow and soft "Out of the Water Lotus". Only after playing the cold and low-key "Moonrise", it suddenly switched to the lingering and sad "Green Water Lamentation Song". Before finishing playing, another high-pitched and exciting song "Treading the Clouds" swept away the downturn... There are so many qin melodies and complicated tones, those who heard it in Dexin Garden were upset, and all of them hid away. "The princess is very depressed." Fang Jia grew up in the palace, and he can sing songs naturally. From these qin melodies, one can hear the heartbeat of the qin player.It's just that since she got along with the princess, she knew that she had an indifferent temperament, ignored world affairs, didn't care about all things, and never had any worries. "Kong Zhao, did something disturb the princess outside the garden today?" Kong Zhao shook his head. "Today is the same as in the past. I went to the library to pick up the books, then walked around and came back." "Oh?" Fang Jia also didn't understand.Why is the princess in such a state of mind today? At this moment, the sound of the piano suddenly turned again, and it was a song "Qi Ao". Zhan Bi Qi Ao, green bamboo Yi Yi. There are bandits and gentlemen, who are as sharp as cutting, and as sharp as grinding. Qin Xi 僩 Xi, He Xi Gu Xi. There are bandits and gentlemen, and they must not be despised. Although Kong Zhao is innocent, she knows "Qi Ao".The princess once taught her to read and write, and also taught her to sing poems and tunes. She knew what kind of piano music this "Qi Ao" was, and what kind of poem it was. It's just...why did the princess play this song? In today's library, the princess was obviously very happy when she mentioned the son-in-law at the beginning, but why did she become unhappy again in a blink of an eye? Zhan Bi Qi Ao, Green Bamboo Yi Yi...By the water...Green Bamboo... Kong Zhao seemed to understand but half understood, looking at the princess under the plum tree half-aware. On the second day, Qingling returned the book to the original place, instead of taking the book next to it, she just took a book from another shelf, naturally there was no comment from Qiu Yiting.When passing by the desk, she left a few words with a pen, and then returned to Dexin Garden with Kong Zhao. The setting sun melts gold, the evening wind blows slowly, and one day will pass again. Walking across the green pond, through the bamboo forest, with the fragrance of medicine all over her body, Qiu Yiyao pushed open the door of the study building.In recent days, he always came to the study for a while after dinner, and naturally, he would not meet anyone at this time. Walking past rows of bookshelves, and then stopped in front of the bookshelf in front of the window, his gaze stayed on the "On the Hundred Wars of the Eastern Dynasty" for a moment, then quietly moved away, and was slightly startled when it passed by.There was no vacancy there... This time it was not the same as before, she took the book he had prepared. He stretched out his hand to take the "Dongshu", flipped through it casually, and saw his brother's comment, after a while, he sighed softly and put it back. Moving forward, I arrived at the desk, only to find that there was a piece of jade silk paper spread out on the desk. On the paper was a line of small and medium regular script. The handwriting was elegant but casual. Too much work hurts the body, and too much thinking hurts the mind. Mo Ruo resignation, no sorrow, no worries. His eyes flicked over those two lines of words, and his mind was slightly startled. Mo Ruo resignation, no sorrow, no worries.As expected, she knew, and her heart was filled with relief, but also with bitterness.It seems "superfluous" for her own actions, she wants to follow the fate, and there is no need for him to "deliberately" show an autumn pavilion in front of her eyes. His eyes flicked over the pen holder, a Zihao stained with ink. Thinking of the scene of her sitting on the desk with a pen and ink, she couldn't help reaching out, but stopped at the moment when her fingertips were about to touch Zihao.His hand trembled, he made a fist, and retracted.Complex emotions flashed in his eyes for a moment.In the end, he just sighed softly, turned and left. The evening wind outside the building is colder, and the dusk is already thick. In the rustling bamboo forest, he walked alone.
