Chapter 19 Chapter Nineteen Bead Embroidery in Pile (4)

Just when we were unable to do anything, General Zhaowei's Mansion suddenly issued an invitation card, Pearl, who had been reclusive all this time, invited me to enjoy the newly blooming lotus in the garden. …Now is not the season for viewing flowers, but Zhuzhu has always been calm and resourceful, and she is an old man in Ziyuan, and she has always remembered Huashan in Dali. I almost went to ask about it last time, maybe she has a way ! ? With the idea of ​​giving it a try, I came to the General's Mansion. Speaking of this mansion, it has a lot of background. It was the old mansion of Wang Niancan, the commander-in-chief of the Xi'an Defenders. It can be said that it was in Xi'an Ziqi Mountain Villa With the best geographical location, the most luxurious manor, towers and pavilions, every plant and tree, Wang Niancan built and managed it as much as possible according to the model of Ziqi Villa, but strictly controlled the etiquette and specifications. , so as not to fall into the tongue of Yuan’s one party, it is said in the history books that he was the first person loyal to Yuan’s family. It is a pity that since the You Palace was changed, half of it was destroyed in the flames of war. On the eve of the Swallow Army's return to the rivers and lakes, the Taizu had already secretly rebuilt the Wang's mansion, and expanded the Runhu in the garden, and set countless records. The famous lotus, named Zhongyan Mansion, was specially rewarded to Yu Feiyan's family after he ascended the throne, which showed the unprecedented favor of the royal family to Yu Feiyan, a commoner general. I thought to myself, maybe this also implies Taizu Eight years of appeasement for Feiyan.

After entering the house, Yu Feiyan went to the court to express her gratitude on the same day, and before the civil and military generals, she changed the name of the original Runhu Lake in the garden of the royal family to Enhechi, implying that future generations will always remember the original family's kindness.Taizu was very pleased, and immediately bestowed the honor of Pearl Yipin Haoming's wife, and the six children were granted longevity golden locks. Yuan Feibai smiled and said to me after returning to the court: "You know, my brother is very diligent in the matter of economics and career, and there must be some experts to give advice."

Then I said in unison with him: "Pearl!" After a while, we both smiled at each other at the same time. As soon as I entered the mansion, Zhuzhu had already brought a group of dark-skinned children with her, followed by a few stewards and wives to the main gate to welcome her, Zhuzhu was about to salute, I hurriedly stopped her, I glared at the children: "Hurry up Call Fourth Aunt!" Seeing their mother smiling and nodding, the children rolled a dozen pairs of small eyes and called me with a giggle, "Hello Fourth Aunt!" The little rabbit started to walk very fast, ran over and jumped into my arms, sweetly called Fourth Aunt, then stood on tiptoe and kissed me, which made me miss Xiyan even more and worry about the safety of the children in Dali.

A large group of children led the way, Pearl smiled and welcomed me in. Along the way, I saw that the halls and pavilions of Xinfan in the mansion were very majestic, the gardens, trees and rocks were lush and lush, and the servants were all dressed in simple and neat clothes. , advance and retreat with ritual, from entering the mansion to sitting, everything is in order. When I came to the Enhe Pond, the lotus flowers in the pool were in full bloom, the flowers and leaves on the blue waves were swaying in the wind, gulls and herons were flying, and it seemed that only the tangy fragrance of lotus flowers remained in the clear sky.

When we arrived at the Qinyu Pavilion in the middle of the lake, the surrounding waves beat against the shore, the heat disappeared completely, and the restless heart became much calmer. Zhu Zhen's children call me Xiaowuyi, but he still calls me Princess Jin. She still followed the old practice of the original mansion, and had people put refreshing jasmine and gardenias around, making the air fragrant. She said: "This year, the lotus in Enhe Pond blooms well. Although the lotus in this pavilion is fragrant, but There are no hundred-day red flowers, and I am always worried that some of them will emit some peculiar smell. In addition, I have been thinking about my husband these days, and I am a little anxious, so I put some gardenias, jasmines or something to calm my mind. Come."

My heart moved, what kind of character is Pearl, could it be that she knew that I was looking for those Jin Chan flowers and gave me a high fever?So she put some elegant flowers to calm my mind, she really has a heart. She smiled and chatted with me about the homework, and at the same time made people serve a few small dishes. I took a look, and all of them were my favorite Jiangnan small dishes, such as bad goose gizzards, crystal salted hoofs, flower stuffed crabs, and rose goose pancakes. Wait, there are Wu Ling in the glass cup, some fresh fruits of the four seasons (water chestnuts, pears, horseshoes), and a plate of cold cakes with fruit fillings on a green agate plate. They are all foods that clear fire and moisten dryness. It's a sigh, Yu Feiyan is really lucky.

I was thinking about how to open my mouth. She had already dismissed her family and children, leaving only one confidant girl, Zhui'er, who was also from Shengu. , it is very effective for clearing away heat and detoxifying.” My heart moved again, but she continued to say with a smile: "Because this thing grows underground, it is abundant in the south of the Yangtze River, so people call it Jiangnan ginseng." I nodded with a smile and said yes, in the past, it was all over the streets in Guazhou, and I ate with my family in Moyuan, but now in Chang'an City, it is also a luxury that is hard to buy.

Pearl asked Zhui'er to hand me a red sandalwood food box with sunflower patterns, and said with a smile: "Coincidentally, there are many growths on the bank of the Enhe pool where the emperor Enhao was. The princess said that this is not the emperor's blessing, but it is what." Ok!I'm 100% sure now: With you, Yu Feiyan really doesn't have to worry about getting promoted in this life. Zhui'er held the food box very seriously and handed it over, as if it was full of gold ingots. I suddenly realized that Yu Feiyan was injured in the front line. The Holy Majesty once rewarded countless rare medicinal herbs. I heard that there are a few in it. The unique Golden Chan flower must be lying in this food box.I was so grateful in my heart, I gently bowed my head to her, and said sincerely: "I don't want to thank you for your kindness, my sister-in-law has taken care of you."

Xiaoyu took the food box lightly and lifted the lid. Sure enough, she looked at me with surprise on her face, and she wanted to kneel down to Zhenzhu excitedly. Then let Zhui'er deliver it in person, don't be polite." She looked at me with beautiful eyes, and said softly: "Actually, when I was in Yuanfu, I heard that there is a large underground river under Xifengyuan. The soil there is moist. Maybe there are a few good things hidden underground?" Underground of Xifeng Court? !Isn’t it the Dark Palace? Does it mean that there are also golden flowers in the Dark Palace? Yes, I remember that when Pearl and I were imprisoned by Duan Yuerong, Pearl mentioned the Dark God in advance, which shows that she is very familiar with the Dark Palace!

Strange, even eight years ago, Pearl was nothing more than a powerful girl, but I remember that Lan Sheng and Fei Bai both told me that the dark palace is the secret of the Yuan family, why would a girl understand Yuan's secrets? His secret?Would she easily see through Jinxiu's personality, point out her first painting, and even be referred to by Yuan Qingjiang as Yu Feiyan's girl, who specializes in spying? Due to the inconvenience of everyone, it is inconvenient for me to ask, but I just came to a preliminary conclusion in my heart: my sister-in-law Pearl is a mystery!A big mystery no less than the original family secret.Now I made up my mind that I must find an opportunity to find out this mystery.

After returning to Xifengyuan, I asked Xiaoyu to think of a way to send out the two Jinchan flowers that Zhenzhu had given me first, and then I went to find Lansheng, but I couldn't find it anywhere, so I had to turn to the big tree opposite Xifenghua for help. Xiao Zhong who chased the hare under the shame tree. "Where's Lan Sheng?" I stroked Xiao Zhong's head and asked softly. Unexpectedly, no matter how I coax, lure, intimidate, threaten, how to lure me with a big meaty bone, Xiao Zhong's dog's head just twists and turns, and finally runs one meter away from me, looking at me so cautiously, I turn my head and agree Xiaoyu sighed and said, "It seems that Xiaozhong doesn't know either." With just this effort of turning his head, he knew that before he could say the word, Xiao Zhong had already fled without a trace with his big meaty bone in his mouth. I stood up resentfully, sighing in my heart, Lan Sheng was hiding from me on purpose, did he guess what I was going to ask him? Xiaoyu said sadly: "Uncle Lan Sheng must still remember the disaster of Nanzhao, and he is unwilling to help Dali tide over the difficulties." I patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. has a way to find him, and you can ask him yourself then." I took out Qingcheng from my sleeve and whispered to him, Qingcheng immediately ran around me, and then went straight to the Dasha tree. Sure enough, after a while, Xiaozhong was nervously holding a big meaty bone cup in his mouth. Running back from a distance, he looked nervously at the crown of the locust tree. In July, the branches and leaves of the shameful tree are in full bloom. Through the gaps in the dense leaves, the scorching sun is pouring down. Even under the cool shade of the tree, I feel a little scorching, so I heard Lan Sheng's cry, and they fell to the ground in response. A pile of locust tree leaves. Lan Sheng held the long tail of the big mouse in one hand, slipped his trouser belt in the other, and said dumbly: "Look, the beast of the Xuanyuan family was trained by you to develop this virtue." He threw the big mouse to me, turned his back, quickly tied up his pants, and said coldly, "I don't know anything, you can find it yourself." I hated in my heart, Lan Sheng really knew, why did I find out after such a long circle, it was too time-consuming, so he whispered softly: "Sixth brother really knows the difficulty of fourth sister, take me to the dark palace Find it." "Why don't you go directly to Master Dark God?" He crossed his arms and gleefully said, "Aren't you the big buyer of passionflower? What do you want from me?" I was choked for a minute, swallowed my anger and said: "Saving people is like putting out a fire, you can't delay even a moment, what do you want?" Lan Sheng sneered and turned to leave. Xiaoyu suddenly walked around in front of Lan Sheng, without saying anything, but with red eyes, she knelt down all of a sudden, knocking her head on his muddy feet, her shoulders trembling slightly. It seemed that something was scratching my heart, and the tears couldn't help but flow down. When I said that Lan Sheng was in a daze, I patted Xiaoyu's shoulders, then knelt down with her, looked up at him: "I know you hate me deeply." Foreign barbarians, but in Dali there are not only your deeply evil people, but also many innocent foreigners and Han people, including my daughter, my students, and many kind friends, not to mention the epidemic situation in Dali. If the disease is not eliminated immediately, it will move northward, and the consequences will be disastrous." I said sincerely: "Just think about it, you or the master of the dark palace, who do I trust more?" The sun shone on Lan Shengguang's forehead, his slender and strong figure stood upright like a jade mountain, his clear peach blossom eyes were deeply moved, he finally helped Xiaoyu and me up with a sigh, and whispered in my ear : "Waiting for me at noon tonight, just you alone is enough, Miss Xiaoyu stays in the Shangxin Pavilion as a cover."
