Chapter 90

It was getting hotter and hotter in June, but it rained heavily today, which made the whole Chuang Tzu more fresh and pleasant.

Ye Lingjiao is standing in the room and looking out.

The garden was full of flowers and peonies, with thick branches and luxuriant leaves. The pollen at the wrist was bright and bright, with raindrops hanging on it. The moist wind was swaying and beautiful.

Ye Tangcai is standing among the flowers, with a plain white plum blossom jacket and a flowing Chinese skirt with water shadow red tightly woven Begonia flowers. The tips of her eyes are gorgeous and turn slightly. The surrounding peonies are eclipsed by her in an instant.

"Look at her, how can there be such a person in the world? It's killing the flowers! " Ye Lingjiao said to the autumn orange behind her with a smile, but stood up and came out“ Sister Tang, it's just raining. You're alive and kicking. Be careful to fall. "

"I think you are alive and restless!" Ye Tangcai's Lotus translucent round fan gently touched her head.

"Pain!" Ye Lingjiao glared at her: "you're all right. Let's go back quickly! June 25 is Grandma's birthday party. Let's go back soon. "

"I see you're just anxious about your cousin! If you go back and grind her again, she won't be happy with the birthday party. " Ye Tangcai looked at her helplessly, "if you really have a husband and forget your mother."

Ye Lingjiao smiled, embarrassed.

"Girl, it's time for us to go back. Today is June 20. We have to prepare birthday gifts when we go back. In addition, we have to be busy for a long time to thank the princess's house. " Autumn orange said.

Even though Zhuangzi has beautiful scenery, I'm tired of staying here for more than a month. And it's someone else's place. You should look at others' eyes before doing anything. Qiuju still likes the dome Mingxuan, his own place, and occasionally plays in the street.

Ye Tangcai nodded: "let's say goodbye to Chuang tou and his wife!"

They went to find the lady Chuang tou and thanked them for their care during this time. Chuang tou let them have lunch again before they packed up and left.

While ye Tangcai was recuperating here, Qing'er also came.

At that time, ye Lingjiao stayed, and the Marquis of Jing'an also left a comfortable carriage with a red wheel and a canopy for their occasional needs.

Ye Tangcai takes Qiuju and huiran, and ye Lingjiao takes ape into the carriage and Qing'er catches the bus. The villa leader was enthusiastic and said he would give them a ride.

So he set out to return to Beijing before 3:15 p.m.

After walking for more than half an hour, the carriage finally entered the city gate and went all the way to the north of the city. In about two quarters of an hour, it entered Changsheng street and turned a corner, which was the west corner gate of dingguobo house.

The carriage stopped outside the corner. Ye Tangcai and others got off the car, said goodbye to Ye Lingjiao and others, and walked into the mansion.

Back to the West Cross courtyard, I looked inside when I passed LAN Zhuju. I saw that the gate was closed and empty. Ye Tangcai expected Chu yunpan to go out to work again.

Several people walked into the dome Mingxuan. Ye Tangcai lay on the familiar arhat bed and stretched: "well, it's still comfortable here!"

Huiran came in with a teapot: "this is the throne for the girl to read the script. It doesn't smell like sitting elsewhere."

"Yes." Ye Tangcai smiled, looked at the white porcelain plum blossom teapot in her hand, and said, "there is tea?"

"Yes." Huiran nodded, and then leisurely began to pour water for her.

Ye Tangcai was surprised. They didn't live here. There was still tea in the house. Even if there was, it should have been more than a month ago. But huiran didn't know to make such a low-level mistake and poured such water to her.

With the infusion of tea, the small white porcelain cup was instantly full, and then a fragrance of jasmine came out.

"Girl." Huiran handed it to her.

Ye Tangcai leaned straight, took the cup, began to warm up, and looked at it for about two or three hours.

"It should be made by Xiang'er!" Huiran smiled and said, "that girl is good."

Ye Tangcai nodded, "turn back and give her a reward."

"Girl, sister green leaf is coming." Autumn oranges are barking outside.

Ye Tangcai straightened up. After a while, green ye came in and turned to the west room. She saw ye Tangcai leaning on the arhat couch and said, "the third grandma is finally back."

"Yes." Ye Tangcai nodded, "I change my clothes and go to greet my mother in a moment."

"No." Green leaf said, "my wife took two girls, three girls and others to Mingdao mountain to worship the old moon. Even the two aunts and the second master have gone. At least they won't be back until tomorrow afternoon. "

Ye Tangcai and huiran are speechless. It makes sense for the Qin family to take Chu Miaoshu and Chu Miaohua with them. What does Chu Congke do? He has a fiancee and is about to get married!

"Sister, sit down and have a cup of tea." Ye Tangcai smiled.

"Thank you, grandma. I have to buy silk thread outside later. More than a month ago, grandma three fell and hurt in the suburbs. Now grandma three is back. Let me have a look. " Said the green leaf.

"There are a lot of silk threads in my room. You see, it's not suitable. You don't have to run outside." Ye Tangcai smiled faintly. The two big servant girls of the Qin family, green branch and green leaf, are mean and more valued, while green leaf and soft, often do foot running work.

"Really?" Green leaves are happy.

Huiran has gone to the house and took out a large handful of silk thread. The green leaves chose some suitable ones. They thanked and thanked before they left.

"What time do you want to thank your highness, maiden?" Qiuju came in.

"Tomorrow morning! While it's still early, you can send worship stickers. " Come back and visit immediately, which shows your sincerity. Ye Tangcai said, "huiran, you go to the east wing and have a look. I seem to have a pair of pastel peony porcelain bottles and the dried peony flowers I dried in Zhuangzi. These two things are suitable for the occasion."

After thinking about it, he said, "when I leave the princess's house tomorrow, I should go back to my mother's house and say hello to my grandmother and mother. Let's also prepare gifts. "

Qiuju and huiran responded and went out of the house. After a while, huiran brought in a pair of porcelain bottles. Ye Tangcai was very satisfied.

When it was dark, autumn orange came back and brought some delicious food on the way. After eating, ye Tangcai washed and slept.

The next morning, ye Tangcai tidied up, got on the carriage at home and went towards the princess's house.

When he came to the corner gate of the princess's house, ye Tangcai handed over a prayer post and was led in by the little boy.

At the Chuihua gate, another beautiful servant girl wearing a red rattan Bijia and a plum blossom gold hairpin came forward: "grandma Chu, please come this way."

"OK, thank you, sister." Ye Tangcai smiled and nodded.

The servant girl glanced at Ye Tang quietly and sighed that grandma Chu was really beautiful.

Ye Tangcai followed the servant girl and crossed the flower gate.

Follow the cobblestone path. I saw the surrounding pavilions, lush flowers and trees, jagged rocks, winding corridors like dragons, and elegant and exquisite pavilions with carved lattice windows.

The servant girl led ye Tangcai to an elegant flower hall, served tea and snacks, and said, "the princess is receiving guests. Now go and report it." Then he backed out.

"The princess will not see us." Autumn orange whispered.

"Well, let's just get it." Ye Tangcai nodded. The subtext of the servant girl just now is very obvious. The princess can't be empty.

This is also the case with the Marquis of Jing'an. In the past, it was said that so and so relatives or friends came to visit. Many of them were low status and approached, but they had to be approached. Wen was lazy and didn't want to deal with it. He would say he was busy, and then asked mammy CAI to go out and say hello. Those people asked mammy CAI to say hello and would go back.

Now they come to thank the princess for her help. The princess is too lazy to see her. She will send a mammy or servant girl. They just want to express their gratitude to the mammy or servant girl and send gifts.

But the servant girl went out of the flower hall, went all the way along the pavilion, and finally entered a delicate yard.

Go through the courtyard to the main house.

In the East Second room, there was a long couch with red sandalwood broken branches and plum blossom carving. On it, there was a beautiful cushion with bird Title Ruihua. Across the drum leg red sandalwood small table, two ladies were sitting on it.

The lady on the left is about 30 years old, dressed in a plain crape myrtle cross collar coat, a honey powder silk Wanfu Su satin skirt, a flying fairy bun, an eight clawed Chaoyang five Phoenix and a pearl hairpin. Her face is slightly round, her apricot eyes are soft and noble, and her face is beautiful. She is the princess of Xinyang.

The woman on the right is twenty-five or six up and down, not as beautiful as Princess Xinyang. She looks medium and up and has correct eyebrows and eyes. The head is in a peony bun, and the loose bun is lit with broken mother of pearl inlaid with emeralds in red gold. Gourd double happiness is everywhere, which makes her whole person more noble than ordinary.

The servant girl came in and saluted the two people: "meet the princess and the crown princess. Grandma Chu, who handed the post yesterday, came."

"Oh." Princess Xinyang gave a dispensable answer.

"What, grandma Chu?" The woman on the right is the crown princess. She looks at Princess Xinyang curiously.

"More than a month ago, there were not human traffickers in our capital. They abducted several noble women." Princess Xinyang said with a slight sigh, "fortunately, Cheng Fuyin got the news in time and went to chase people back. The third grandmother Chu was among them, but she accidentally fell down the hillside and couldn't follow Cheng Fuyin back. Later, her husband went out to look for someone and finally found them, but he broke his ribs and was seriously injured. It was dark. It was good to move again. Zhuangzi of the palace was nearby. He took her to pat the door. The Chuang head of the palace saw them and quickly arranged them in the guest room. The next day, Chuang tou went back and forth to the palace. The palace listened and let her heal there. Come and thank me when you recover and return to Beijing. "

"Sister Sanhuang is really kind." The princess smiled.

"What's the matter? It's a human life. It's natural to help." Said Princess Xinyang“ They all said they fell on an outing, but they dared not hide it from the palace. Human traffickers are so hateful that we can't speak out, otherwise it will damage her reputation. We are all women, and fame is more important than life. "

"It's natural." The princess said.

"Yesterday, a villa leader sent her back to Beijing and came back to the palace. The old villa head is really not serious. He actually said that the third grandma Chu looks like an immortal. Old man is not ashamed. Turn around and throw him out! " Princess Xinyang snorted, obviously feeling that her villa head was too frivolous“ Yazhu, you say that the palace is busy and can't spare time. Let mother Qi go and see her. "

Yazhu was turning around, but the Crown Princess shouted, "wait." Then he turned back and smiled at Princess Xinyang: "we're not busy. She wants to thank you. Let's meet!"

Princess Xinyang frowned. Obviously, she didn't want to see her.

The crown princess knows what Princess Xinyang is thinking. I don't know how many royal nobles want to cling to them. If they can't see them, they will disappear. If they see them, they love to stick them up. It takes a lot of effort to swing them.

"Come on, Yazhu, you go and invite her." Princess Xinyang was too lazy to push and rubbed her temples. He smiled at the princess and said, "you are much more valuable than me. Even if you really want to paste it, it's also paste you!"

"Sister Sanhuang laughed at me again." The princess said, but her eyes brightened. Prince, who doesn't want to cling to, the most noble person except today! She is his crown princess and the most noble woman except the queen mother. Even if the princesses saw her, they all felt short.

Yazhu saluted and turned away.

In the flower hall, ye Tangcai is drinking tea. This is plum blossom tea dried in winter. It has a pleasant fragrance and is delicious with plum blossom red bean sweet cake.

At this time, Yazhu came in and said, "grandma Chu, please follow your maidservant this way."

Ye Tangcai and Qiuju huiran are stunned. According to the Convention, shouldn't they be sent away by mammy or close servant girl? Why do you really want to see me?

Now she can't allow her to think about it. Qiuju and huiran go out with ye Tangcai's footsteps with a bottle in their hands.

After a quarter of an hour or so, I finally came to the main house and courtyard where the princess lived.

Looking up, I saw a pink wall, inside which there were several Yingxiu houses, and the Hunan imperial concubine was full of green bamboos. When you look up, you can see two gorgeous hanging flower gatehouses. Up there are three large main rooms, cornices and corners, and glazed tiles.

"Grandma Chu, please." Yazhu had already stood in front of the main room and raised the embroidered splint curtain of the spirit beast.

Ye Tangcai and huiran walked forward and drilled in. When Yazhu came in, they followed Yazhu behind.

Yazhu stopped under the Pearl curtain in the east room, and ye Tangcai also stopped, afraid to take another step.

Then Yazhu went in and saluted the people inside: "the princess, the crown princess, the empress, and grandma Chu are here."

Princess Xinyang and the crown princess are holding the tea cup, listening to the meal, and then put down the tea cup one after another.

Princess Xinyang smiled, "please come in!"

"Grandma Chu, please come in."

The two people on the seat saw that the bead curtain was lifted, and a beautiful girl came slowly. For a moment, it seemed that the whole room was lit up.

With her step generation, the dark red twisted flower Shuihua skirt draws a beautiful radian, the Jasper step is forbidden at the waist, and the golden red tassel on her head swings gently, trapped in the dark head, looking particularly gorgeous and noble.

The girl has come forward, slightly blessing ceremony, soft and fragile voice: "my concubine, Ye Shi, meet your highness and the princess."

Princess Xinyang and the crown princess have been surprised by Ye Tangcai's temperament. The crown princess said, "get up!"

Ye Tangcai stood up straight and raised his head slightly.

Princess Xinyang and the Crown Princess both took a dare, and the whole person was surprised.

The girl in front of her slightly lowered her eyes, but it was difficult to hide the magnificent color. Her eyebrows and eyes were dizzy. She was as beautiful as peaches and plums pressing on the branches, and as beautiful as flowers reflecting the autumn water. All the good colors in the world were on her.

"It looks like an immortal." Princess Xinyang smiled helplessly, "no wonder she was praised."

The crown princess looked up and down at ye Tangcai. A complex light flashed in her eyes and said with a smile, "grandma Chu's husband's house. I don't know which Chu's house?"

"My husband's family is the Bo house of the fixed country." Ye Tangcai said.

The Crown Princess thought about it, and then she suddenly came back to her mind. Oh, it's the famous broken settlement! In those days, the scenery was boundless. Who didn't please, who didn't flatter. In those days, even the prince's highness welcomed him. As a result... Now he has become a broken settlement like a street mouse.

Thinking, her eyes fell on ye Tangcai again. She looked from head to foot. She was really good-looking. Even shangguanyun, known as the first beauty in the capital, was inferior to her.

"How are you doing in Zhuangzi? Does the peony there open well? " Seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, Princess Xinyang quickly brought up the topic.

Ye Tangcai quickly praised Chuang Tzu's scenery, and then talked about how beautiful the peony flowers in the courtyard are. Then they will send their own peony powder porcelain bottles and dried peony flowers.

The dried peony flower held by the crown princess in her hand smiled and said, "this flower is well dried, complete and dry. Almost all the aroma has been preserved. I don't know how to do it."

Ye Tangcai said, "go back to your mother, first pick the flowers, don't touch water, wipe them carefully with brocade cloth, steam them for a quarter of an hour, and then take them out to dry in three days. In fact, good sun exposure is a fluke. "

The Crown Princess sighed slightly: "I like dried flowers best. But none of the servant girls below is useful. What they buy outside can't always be satisfactory. With the secret of the third grandmother, we will be able to dry the desired flowers. "

Listening to this, ye Tangcai, a member of the royal family, is really official. The method of drying flowers is not a secret method, but a general method. Moreover, her flowers are a little better than ordinary dried flowers, but they are not particularly good. They are much better than her. If you go to the sea, mother Cai is better than her.

Thinking so, ye Tangcai hurriedly said, "my body is frightened. I learned from my mother's nanny to dry flowers. Compared with mother Cai, my body skill is less than half of her."

The crown princess smiled: "don't be modest."

"Thank you for your pastel bottle and dried peony today. I like it very much." Princess Xinyang smiled: "it's getting late. You'll recover. Go back and have a good rest. Yazhu, go to the pharmacy and get a ginseng. "

Yazhu promised, stepped back, and soon came back, holding a long jade box, the same box as the one given by Chuang Tzu last time, in front of Ye Tangcai.

"Thank you, princess. Thank you, princess. I'll leave first." Ye Tangcai took something and withdrew.

The master and servant followed Yazhu's back, went out of the door and got into the carriage, which was a great relief.

"I saw the princess and the princess!" Autumn orange twinkles with star eyes“ I thought it would be so powerful... I don't want to, but it's so gentle and noble. "

"What's the matter? It's not all people." Huiran said with a smile, "girls and wives are not distinguished in the eyes of those rural people, but we are just people, just better dressed."

Ye Tangcai always feels uncomfortable when he thinks of the crown princess. Maybe it's because she's the crown princess! But the third master is working with Liang Wang. He has a hostile relationship!

At this time, the carriage had already started, and ye Tangcai knocked on the wall of the carriage: "Qing'er, let's go back to our mother's house now! I have to tell my mother and grandmother that they are safe. "
