But it is said that the Summer Palace outside Beijing's Xizhimen is a monument left by the Xun Qing Dynasty.According to legend, the construction fee of the garden was originally paid by the Navy.Using the money from the navy to build a garden naturally looks great.In the former Qing Dynasty, it was only for the emperor and empress dowager to have fun there.Up to now, it is just Liu Shi's Forbidden City, the so-called subjugated Yinghua.Not only can everyone go to play, but also those who go to visit, the sunset grass, must have some tributes.The spring in the north is late, the leaves of elms and poplars are late, and the flowers just bloom at the end of March and the beginning of April.At that time, Longevity Mountain was full of green peaks, Kunming Lake was full of spring water and green waves, and the Summer Palace and the adjacent Xishan Mountain all entered the golden age.Beijingers have always paid attention to the old three things, so-called eat a little, drink a little, and have a little fun. How can you not visit a place like this?So in March and April, when the weather is sunny and sunny, outside Xizhimen, the two main roads leading to Xiangshan and Badachu are really full of traffic, and there are endless scenes of clothes and temples.In the last ten days of March of this year, the weather was fine and there were many tourists who went out of Xizhimen every day.Cars, carriages, rickshaws and donkeys come and go, which is extremely lively.But for some rich men, of course they don't like to ride in horse-drawn carriages and rickshaws.The car is tired again.As for the donkey, I think it is thin and small.First of all, there is one thing I don't want to accept, that is, the whip sent by the donkey driver is too dirty, so people dare not take it.There is a class boy who feeds a few good horses at home, and occasionally he is happy to go out of the city to run on the horses.How happy it is to see horses neighing and fragrant grass in such a beautiful spring time, with a light shirt and side hat, whipping flowers and willows under the willows!Among this group of sons and gentlemen, there is a young master surnamed Jin who is extremely prominent.His single name is a Chinese character, and his name is Yanxi. He is only eighteen years old now.Brothers rank, he is the fourth, and if sisters and brothers talk together, he ranks seventh, so his servants all call him Seventh Lord.His father is the current prime minister and the managing director of a bank.The money in the family flows in and out like flowing water every day.So apart from reading, he has nothing wrong with it.Because of the fine weather that day, he got up early and got up after nine o'clock.After eating some snacks at home, he called four servants, Li Fu, Zhang Shun, Jin Rong, and Jingui, prepared five horses, and five masters and servants. They left Xizhimen in a crowd and came to the Summer Palace.Yanxi took off the mandarin jacket piled with flowers and blue satin, and threw it to the footman. She was wearing only a royal blue fine silk camel hair gown, and the sleeves of the shirt were slightly rolled up, revealing the pea green spring silk short jacket underneath. .The right hand is holding the reins of the horse, and the left hand is holding a snow whip made of silk from Xiangzhu Lake.Two patent leather shoes stepped on the stirrups, clamped the horse's belly, and raised the whip. The jade dragon white horse that got off, spread its four hooves on the road, and galloped westward like flying.Jin Rong, who was behind, rode up to catch up, and shouted: "My young master, don't run away. This fall is not for fun." When he said that, the three horses behind also jumped up. caught up.The dust on the road was kicked up by the horseshoe and rolled over the head.Yanxi's run covered five miles.I felt that it was a little difficult, so I reined in the horse.The four horses had already copied the horse's head, turned around, and blocked the way.Yanxi pulled out a snowflake handkerchief from under the camel's hair robe, wiped the sweat off her face, and said with a smile, "What are you doing?" Jin Rong said, "There are so many people on the road today, I really can't run. It's not good if you fall. It’s not good for others, don’t you think so?” Yanxi smiled and said, “You are all good people? The day before yesterday you learned to drive a car and almost ran over the policeman.” Jin Rong laughed and said, “No way! You The ability to ride a horse is about the same as my ability to drive a car, just be careful. If you come out to play happily, if you get into trouble, you won't be afraid, but you will be very disappointed." Yanxi said: "That's like a saying. Li Fu said: "Then, let's go ahead." Then, the four of them turned around and walked ahead.Yanxi loosened the horse's reins and followed slowly.

Here is a two or three zhang wide avenue, with willow trees on both sides hanging long strips, covering people's bodies and horses' backs.Yanxi's horse race was getting a bit hot, when a gust or two of east wind blew from under the willow tree, bringing some fragrance to his face, he couldn't help feeling refreshed all over.Their horses were walking in the downwind, and among the fragrances, they felt that when they were in the wind, there was a scent of orchid musk.Yanxi saw the spring scenery on the street on horseback, and couldn't help feeling the fragrance.Yanxi felt very strange, thinking, this is not like going to the wild, but like entering someone's hairdressing room.While riding the horse slowly, at the same time, he was in a trance on the horse.That burst of fragrance became more and more intense.When I turned around by chance, I saw Limelight, a row of four rubber cars, with four seventeen or eighteen-year-old female students sitting on them, chasing after them.Yanxi suddenly realized that the strong fragrance of the makeup powder came from them.At this moment, three of the four rubber carts had already passed the horse's head.The last one was walking side by side with Yanxi's horse.Yanxi's gaze unconsciously turned to that side.I saw that woman was wearing a wishful bun, and inside her bun was a goose-yellow velvet rope, which looked more and more radiant.She was wearing a blue dress, with thin white braids rolling all over her body.A veil the color of the West Lake is wrapped around his neck, which is blown lightly by the wind.Yanxi grows among the golden powder bushes, although she is used to leaning on the red and nestling in the emerald green, but such plain decorations are rare.He didn't look at You Ke, and after seeing it, he didn't feel like he was looking at it again.I saw that the snow-white face was slightly red, and a sparse black streak was draped to the tip of the eyebrows. With a pair of flexible eyes, it was clear at a glance that she was a smart girl.Yanxi looked and looked, fearing that others would perceive it, and urged the horse to go a few steps faster and then slower, back and forth, so as not to let the cart get too far away.The car walked quickly, and the horse walked slowly, so that Yanxi forgot where he was.The car in front stopped suddenly because it let the car pass by, and the cars behind also stopped.When Yanxi saw his car stop, his horse also stopped unconsciously.The beautiful woman tilted her head and was looking at the scenery here.She suddenly lowered her head and smiled, and before she could take out her handkerchief, she covered her mouth with the veil fluttering in the wind.When she smiled, her lightning-like eyes looked this way again.Yanxi went all the way, chasing after him, but he didn't realize it.At this time, when people looked at him, he felt a little embarrassed.Suddenly looked down, and then woke up.It turned out that the horsewhip I was holding in my hand had dropped out of my hand at some point, and it had already fallen to the ground.Probably the reason why people laugh is because of this.I'm a little embarrassed to go down and pick up the whip.Why don't you pick it up, that horsewhip is my favorite thing, I really don't want to lose it.I can't help but hesitate immediately.Jin Rong and his party of four horses were in front of him, how could he know, just walk.When Jin Rong turned his head, Yanxi was nowhere to be seen. He was startled, reined in his horse, stepped on the stirrup, and looked up, only to see him reining in the horse and stopping under the shade of a willow tree.Jin Rong added a whip and hurriedly urged the horse to run back.Then he asked, "Qiye, what are you doing?" Yanxi smiled and said, "It's good that you're here, my horse whip fell on the ground, you can pick it up for me." Jin Rong really jumped off the horse Go, pick up the whip and give it to Yanxi.As soon as he took the whip, he seemed to remember something, and ran away before Jin Rong got on the horse.Jin Rong chased after him and shouted, "My Seventh Lord, what are you doing? Are you crazy?" Yanxi's horse stopped after running for about half a mile, and then slowly walk up.

Jin Rong followed behind, stretching out his hand to scratch his hair.I thought to myself: This is a bit strange, I don't know what's wrong with him?I didn't dare to ask Yanxi what happened, so I had to follow in a daze.After walking for a while, I saw a few rickshaws chasing after me, but there were a few women who looked like water onions in the car.Jin Rong suddenly realized, and thought: My lord, I am playing foolishly again!No wonder the back and forth, always inseparable from these cars.Let me look at him and see who I am paying attention to.When thinking this way, his eyes turned to those cars.He couldn't stop staring at the woman in Tsing Yi when he looked at Yanxi, so he knew it.But there are five horses in my own group, and they are always staring at the cars of others like flies seeing blood. This kind of expression is unsightly.So he deliberately caught up with a whip, walked side by side with Yanxi's horse, and lost a wink with Yanxi.In just this moment, the horse has already stepped forward.Yanxi understood and chased after him.Jin Rong hit the horse and ran forward, but Yanxi shouted from behind: "Jin Rong, do you want me to scold you? All right, what's the trick?" Jin Rong looked back and saw that he was far away from the rickshaw.Then he laughed and said, "Qiye, do you still call me a cunning?" Jin Yanxi laughed and said, "Why can't I call you a cunning?" She really doesn't look like that." Fu laughed again: "If you really want to see her, you can see her every day for three hundred and sixty days, why bother chasing her on this road?" Yanxi laughed and said, "I think Who? You are talking nonsense, if you are careful, I will whip you!" Jin Rong said: "I mean it kindly. If Qi Ye said that, I will not say it." Seeing that there was something in his words, Yanxi patted the horse forward, and the two horses tightened side by side tightly.He smiled and said, "What do you mean by good intentions?" Jin Rong said, "Qi Ye is going to whip me, what else can I say, do you want to be beaten if you have nothing to do?" When Jingui and the three heard this, everyone immediately laughed.Yanxi said: "You wronged me, I didn't know?" Jin Rong said: "How dare I wrong you? I go to the street every day, and I always meet that person. I know where she lives." Yanxi He smiled and said: "This shows that you are talking nonsense. You don't know her, and she doesn't know you. How can you pay attention to other people's actions?" , Isn’t there nothing happening out of thin air, and something happening out of thin air? Everyone loves to see such a beautiful person. Such a flower-like lady is walking on the street, and the dogs will wag their tails when they see it, let alone me. Yanxi laughed and said, "Stop chewing maggots, do you know?" Jin Rong said, "Don't be busy, sir, listen to me, didn't Qiye come up with a trick this morning, and want to eat yellow crab shell cakes?" I'm always afraid that what others buy won't suit you, so I always buy it myself. Every morning, a trip to the single archway is a good job for you to pick on Jin Rong." Yanxi said: "Come on, stop talking nonsense." Jin Rong said: "When I go to buy biscuits every day, I always meet her coming back from school. Almost every time. One day she came back early, I was in a place, and I saw her go into a house, I guess that It's her home." Yanxi said: "She went in, so it's not necessarily her home, maybe it's her relatives and friends' home?" Jin Rong said: "I said the same thing, but I ran into it twice later. " Yanxi said: "Where is it?" Jin Rong smiled and said: "It's not far from our home anyway." Yanxi said: "In Beijing, it's not far from our home, your words are too unreliable. " Jin Rong said: "I will never dare to wrong you. When I go back, I will take you to the door of her house, and I will make you happy. Tell me first, but it will be boring." , then if you don’t take me there, I’ll settle the score with you!” Jin Rong said with a smile: “I also have a condition, I can’t stare at people on the road, if I keep staring at them, I dare not say anything " Seeing what he said was honest and honest, Yanxi smiled and agreed.

The master and servant talked all the way, and they didn't realize that they had already passed Haidian.Zhang Shundao: "Master Qi, we went to the Summer Palace the day before yesterday, are we going again today?" Yanxi hesitated on the horse, but didn't say anything yet.Li Fu said with a smile: "You don't know how to speak, you have to go in for a stroll today." Zhang Shun said with a smile: "Then, we will all wait outside and leave Qiye inside alone. Take your time." Yanxi laughed and scolded: "You bastards, make fun of me." Jingui said: "Qiye, don't scold the whole group, I dare not say anything." People, talking and laughing happily, arrived at the Summer Palace, tied the horse under the tree, and the five bought tickets to enter.Yanxi thought to herself, those female students must have come to visit the Summer Palace.So come in ahead and wait here.Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, there was no sign at all. I am afraid that he has been going to Xiangshan.Listless, he went home with four servants.

As soon as he arrived at the gate, he saw a car parked just now. His elder sister-in-law Wu Peifang, third sister-in-law Wang Yufen and third aunt, Aunt Cui, all got out of the car.As soon as Aunt Cui saw Yanxi get off the horse, she smiled and said, "It's all right, did you go out for a horse race again? Look, what's the point of getting your face so red from the sun? Turn around and let your white sister see you." , I have to complain for a long time." Yanxi handed the whip to Jin Rong, and went in with them.She asked, "Where did you guys come from?" Peifang laughed and said, "Aunt Cui won money playing poker last night, we want her to be my host." Yanxi said, "Eat restaurants?" Peifang said: "No! I booked two rooms on the Chunming Stage and listened to two plays." Yanxi said: "There are only three people in total, but we booked two rooms." Aunt Cui said: "This is them. I used the money I won as tiles. I said I could pack a room, but they said: There are a lot of people going. Later, after the box was packed, no one was looking for it, and no one was looking for it.” Yanxi stomped his feet and was about to speak when Wang Yufen, who was in front of him, groaned.Turning around, she blushed and wanted to blame him, then she couldn't help laughing again, and said, "Old Qi, look, the serge cloak I'm wearing is newly worn today, you've been trampled dirty." Looking at the front of her rose-purple cloak, she turned her head to look only at her heels.Yanxi saw that there was no footprint on the place where the rhinestones and blue silk braids fringed.Yanxi looked at it, and the boss didn't like it.Quickly squatted down to beat his third sister-in-law.Wang Yufen turned around, stepped forward, and said with a smile: "I dare not be that!" Everyone laughed and walked into the upper room.The old women in each room have already come forward to take the cloaks and bags for them.

Yanxi was about to go back to her study, when Aunt Cui grabbed her and said, "I have something to discuss with you." Yanxi said, "What's the matter?" You have already got a ticket, let me sell it? Can it work?" Yanxi said: "I don't know what is the most important thing, just for this? I can give it away." Aunt Cui said: "You put it in Where you are, I will take it myself, if it changes hands, I will lose my share again." Yanxi agreed and went out by herself.Once back in the study, Jin Rong was cleaning the desk for him.Jin Rong saw that there was no one in the room, and said with a smile: "Qi Ye, you don't need to read the book, you just throw it all over the place, if someone comes here and sees it, it's not good for everyone." What's the matter? What's on display outside are just a few irrelevant novels. Have those tabloids been delivered? I haven't read them for two days." Jin Rong said: "Why haven't they been delivered? I'm keeping them. Turn around When you want to sleep at night, take it out and have a look." Yanxi smiled and said, "You said you knew the girl's house, you can tell me now." Jin Rong said: "I dare not say." Yanxi said "Why don't you dare to say it?" Jin Rong said with a smile: "In the future, Miss Bai will find out, but I can't afford it." Yanxi said: "How can we let them know what we do? Just say it, and it will be fine." " Jin Rong smiled, hesitated and said: "I can't help you. Those things I said on the road are all nonsense." Saying this, he greeted Yanxi.Yanxi was very upset, and said with a straight face: "Why did you wrong me?" Jin Rong said: "You don't know, when you look at his car on the road, he is already angry. I'm afraid that if I continue to follow, there will be trouble. " Yanxi said: "I don't care, you have to find her home. If you can't find it, don't see me." After finishing speaking, she took out a magazine on the table and read it for herself, ignoring Jin Rong.Seeing that Yanxi was really angry, Jin Rong didn't dare to say anything, and quit after finishing his work.He discussed with a few servants and said, "Isn't this a difficult task? Beijing is such a big place. Where can I find this person?" Everyone said, "Who told you to lie so well, like It's really the same." Jin Rong also felt that he couldn't explain the errand, and was too scared to see Yanxi's face for two or three days.Fortunately, Yanxi had a lot of places to play, so after two or three days, this matter faded away.When Jin Rong saw that he had forgotten about it, a stone fell from his heart.

It was a coincidence that Jin Rong went to buy flowers at the flower factory of Huguo Temple on this day, and met the female student who bought several pots of flowers, hired a car on the street, and the place to talk was the west end of Luohua Hutong.Jin Rong's performance was even happier than a student who did a few difficult questions.Let her car go, and he hired a car to follow.When they got there, the female student's car stopped and knocked on a small black door.Jin Rong's car had been pulled past the west entrance, and he paid the fare to get out. He pretended to be looking for someone, and counted all the way by the house number.Counting to the small black door, the house number is No. 12, and there is a white wooden board on the door, with the words Leng Yu written on it.The door happened to be half-closed, looking outside the door, it turned out that there was a small courtyard inside.It's just that behind the yard, there are dense trees in the area, which seems to be a garden for others.I was looking around here, and saw the female student flashing in the yard, so it can be concluded that she is living here.

Jin Rong saw it, went back home, looked for Yanxi in the upper room, and lost a wink with him.Yanxi understood and went with him to the study.Jin Rong smiled and said, "Qi Ye, I found the person you were looking for." Yanxi said, "Who am I looking for?" Jin Rong smiled and said, "Qi Ye is very concerned about someone." Yanxi Said: "Who am I worried about? I don't understand what you said more and more." Jin Rong said: "Did Qi Ye forget all about it? What about the person I saw in Haidian that day." Yanxi smiled and said: "Oh! I Said who you were talking about, it turned out to be her, where did you find it? Are you talking nonsense again?" Jin Rong said: "Unless you have eaten the guts of a leopard, do you still dare to lie?" The female student said it again.He laughed again: "Not only can I find out where she is, but I also know her surname is Leng." What Jin Rong said touched Yanxi's mind.Thinking of that day under the shade of the willow tree, the girl in the car with no make-up looked like a fairy, just in front of me, and I couldn't help smiling.Then he said to Jin Rong: "I still can't believe what you said is true or not, let me investigate and confirm it." Jin Rong laughed and said, "If the investigation is true, is there a reward?" Jin Yanxi said: "There is a reward, a reward You are a ham." Although Jin Yanxi said this, she was happy in her heart.He couldn't wait for the next day, so he immediately changed into a suit, paired it with a bright red bow tie, and picked out a pair of shiny black leather shoes to wear.Holding a soft rattan cane in his hand, he was about to go out when he suddenly remembered that he was not wearing a hat.He was wearing a set of dark green clothes, and he should also be wearing a dark green hat.I remember this hat, I left it in the upper room when I came back from watching the horse race with them two days ago, I don't know which sister-in-law's room it was in, so I went to Wu Peifang first.Just when he was about to go to the Moon Gate, he saw his sister-in-law's girl, Xiao Lian, brought a few pots of orchids, basking in the sun on the stone steps outside the promenade, took a wet towel, and was wiping the porcelain pots.When she raised her head, she couldn't help laughing when she saw Yanxi protruding half of her body, stretching and shrinking.Yanxi nodded to her, beckoned her to come over.Xiao Lian threw away the towel, ran over, and turned her hand to touch the end of the braid.He smiled and said, "Let's talk about it, what are you doing with this look?" Jin Yanxi saw that she was wearing a gray cloth dress, and a small waistcoat of 60% old green satin was tightly put on outside, and she was combed thickly with a layer of black. The bangs made her face look more and more fair.Then he smiled and said: "This vest is very beautiful." Xiao Lian said: "What is it beautiful? It was given to me by Miss Six. It was fashionable two or three years ago, but now it has become an antique." Jin Yanxi Said: "But you are well dressed." Xiao Lian said: "Is that what you said when you asked me to come?" Jin Yanxi laughed and said: "The eldest young mistress said that she asked you to serve me, did you hear that?" Xiao Lian spat at him slightly, turned around and ran away.Yanxi knocked on the moon door with her cane, and smiled.Wu Peifang shouted through the glass window: "Isn't that Lao Qi?" Yanxi walked into the moon gate and said, "Sister-in-law, it's me." Peifang said: "What's the matter with you, you are sneaky?" At that time, Peifang had already walked out.Xiao Lian lowered her head and wiped the flowerpot there, her ears were all red.Peifang was on the corridor, Yanxi was standing under the corridor, Peifang covered her mouth and smiled, Yanxi forced a smile too.Then he said: "The dark green woolen hat I was wearing for the first time, should I leave it here?" Peifang laughed and said, "Don't say that before it's too early. Young friends, what kind of green hat are you wearing?" Jin Yanxi said: " Are there many people wearing cuckolds now?" Peifang knew that he was stunned by what he said, so she deliberately vomited at him and said, "Because there are many people wearing cuckolds, do you have to wear one on your head?" Yanxi laughed and said, "You are I'm wearing glasses and curium bowls, so I'm looking for trouble." Peifang smiled and said, "Listen, I made a mistake and said I was looking for trouble." Yanxi said: "Come on, tell me Well, is the hat here or not? I'm waiting to go out." Peifang said, "You always throw things around, don't ask if you throw them away for ten and a half months, and grab them randomly when it's time to use them. It will be fine if I have a little daughter-in-law to take care of this problem." Speaking of which, he smiled and said, "I think you treat Xiao Lian very well, or I will tell my mother to take care of her first. You, tidy up your clothes, shoes and socks, shall we?" Xiao Lian let go and said, "Young Mistress, too!" As she spoke, she ran away as soon as she dropped her braid.Yanxi said: "He is also a child of sixteen or seventeen years old. You can joke face to face like this, and you won't be afraid of being ashamed." Peifang laughed and said, "Why be ashamed? Isn't she willing?" Yanxi Said: "Is the hat here or not?" Peifang said: "I don't have the hat, but I have a mandarin jacket thrown here, you can look elsewhere." Yanxi thought, the second sister-in-law didn't have it.It's not with Aunt Cui, or it's with Third Sister-in-law, so I went down the corridor to the back room.

As soon as he turned the corner, Xiao Lian took a small stick and picked the spider web on the dwarf cypress tree.The cypress trees are lined up in rows and planted like fences.Jin Yanxi is here, Xiao Lian is there.Seeing Jin Yanxi coming, Xiao Lian asked, "What hat are you looking for?" Jin Yanxi said, "Didn't you hear me just now? Do you want me to say that you are looking for a green hat?" Xiao Lian said with a smile: "I'm not taking advantage of you." When he said that, he pointed a stick at Jin Yanxi's clothes and asked, "Is it the same color as this one?" Jin Yanxi said, "Yes. Have you seen it?" Xiao Lian said: "Your memory is too bad. Didn't Miss Bai let you play poker and put away your hat that day when you put on your clothes and left?" Jin Yanxi said: "Oh! Not bad, it's Bai Miss took it. Do you know where she put it?" Xiao Lian said: "Where did she put it? Just threw it on the chair. I know you bought it, and I heard it cost more than 20 yuan. , I was afraid of losing it, so I picked it up and sent it to your room." Yanxi said: "Is it true?" Xiao Lian said: "Why not? Behind your room, the first place in the shower room Go and have a look." Jin Yanxi smiled and said, "Excuse me!" Xiao Lian poked Yanxi with the stick in her hand, and said with a smile, "Your mouth , the worst, messy, like to talk nonsense." Yanxi smiled and said, "What am I talking about you?" As she said that, Yanxi took a step forward, trying to grab her hand and grab her stick.Xiao Lian shrinks back, Yanxi has no way to catch her across a row of small cypress trees.Xiao Lian stamped her feet, raised her eyebrows, pouted her lips and said, "Don't make trouble! I saw the joke." Seeing that she couldn't be caught, Yanxi ran along the small cypress fence and was about to go through the small gate to twist Xiao Lian.Seeing this, Xiao Lian turned around and ran away. When Yanxi ran to the side of the cypress tree, Xiao Lian had already run across the corridor, nodded and smiled at Jin Yanxi from afar, "Come here!" Jin Yanxi said with a smile , and ran forward.Behind Xiao Lian was an entrance door. Holding the door with her hands, she shrank back and closed the door.
