warm garden
Chapter 16 is considered to be an official meeting after adulthood, which is quite late, slow writin
Have a breeze.
The Duke of Wu's mansion was bustling and bustling as usual, and it had been like this since the early morning.
After the whole family washed up and had breakfast, Ming Ruiran and Ming Jue father and son dressed neatly and went out to court together.In the morning, Bai Heyun would occasionally send some affairs to Zhuzhai, and Ming Xiaoyang would take advantage of this time to sneak back into the bed for a sneaky sleep, and it would not be long before Bai Heyun would find out that he would grab his ears and groan They dragged it out screaming and threw it into the courtyard to practice.Huo Yuan taught Ming Le martial arts in the courtyard.Butler Zhu and the female envoys cleaned up and prepared for the affairs of the mansion in the morning. The entire Wu State Mansion was not in a hurry, but it was full of vitality, and it was never clear that it was cold in the morning.
On this day, Ming Xiaoyang was reluctantly dragged out of the bed, and was driven to the courtyard by Bai Heyun like a sheep.
Ming Xiaoyang saw that there were six more big stones in the courtyard, and the three big ones were as tall as a person, and the inner diameter was more than one meter thick.The three small ones are about half of the big rock.
Asked in surprise: "Mother, what is this, it looks so ugly in the courtyard!"
Bai Heyun said: "Today I will teach you 'Bone Crushing', 'Tendon Melting' and 'Ten Thorns'!"
Ming Xiaoyang regained his energy when he heard it. Although he likes to stay in bed, he still likes to practice martial arts. Now that he has mastered nine secret skills, he can finally learn all of them today.
She suddenly became as well-behaved as she was when she was a child. She blinked her big eyes and looked at her mother, saying, "En!"
Bai Heyun walked up to a small boulder, slapped it down, and it shattered into small stones all over the ground, saying: "This is 'broken bone'".
Ming Xiaoyang was shocked!I went up and squeezed my mother's hand, not only was it not hurt, but it was still soft!
Bai Heyun walked to another stone and slapped it down again. The stone didn't move at all, and said, "This is 'resolving tendons'."
Ming Xiaoyang raised his eyebrows and lowered his eyebrows, questioning: "Ah???"
Bai Heyun smiled, and said, "I'll hit the bone again, and you can see the difference from the previous one."
As he spoke, he patched the second stone with his palm, and the outside of the stone was shattered, but the stone inside turned into powder and scattered all over the ground.
Ming Xiaoyang: "..."
Bai Heyun walked to the third stone, stretched out a little finger, and stabbed at the stone, the little finger went straight into the stone!When he withdrew his hand, a hole the size of a little finger was left on the stone!Bai Heyun stretched out his hands again, and grabbed the stone like a tiger's claw, leaving ten holes in the stone, saying: "This is the 'ten thorns'. It takes a year to practice all of them! The remaining three The big stone is for you to practice."
Ming Xiaoyang was so frightened that his soul smoked out, and he murmured softly: "Yes..."
After Bai Heyun taught each item in detail for a while, he went back to Zhuzhai.Ming Xiaoyang stood in the courtyard and looked at the broken stones on the ground, thinking: "It's bad luck to be a stone, move to my house, meet my mother, and end up dead..."
He looked down at his fingers again, and whispered suspiciously: "You guys can fight a little bit, and don't break them before you finish your practice."
At noon approaching, Ming Ruiran and Ming Jue went back to the mansion. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Ming Xiaoyang exerting strength against the stone, Ming Jue said with a smile: "Yang Yang worked hard today, usually he would have already run to the dinner table at this time. waited before."
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Brother Jue said that I'm like an idiot!"
Ming Jue laughed loudly and went back to his room to change clothes.
Ming Ruiran came over to watch his son practice.Ming Xiaoyang turned his head and asked: "Father, you are not afraid that mother will have a nightmare one night, and she will attack you with a trick of 'breaking bones', 'melting tendons' and 'ten thorns'?"
Ming Ruiran smiled triumphantly: "Your mother always sleeps in my arms, how can you have nightmares?" She stabbed back at the stone, and five holes appeared in the large boulder in an instant!Ming Ruiran also smiled and went back to change clothes.
Ming Xiaoyang stood there blankly, thinking: "Who is this family?"
In a blink of an eye, it is already deep winter, and Shangyuan is approaching.
We all know that on the same street, a mansion is being built less than a hundred meters away from Duke Wu's mansion, but they don't know that this is the mansion of King Ning who has not yet been crowned king.Seeing that it is about to be completed, it is very grand, and often attracts others to stop and watch, and whisper to guess who the owner is.
Ming Xiaoyang is also curious, always asking her mother who this new neighbor is.Bai Heyun smiled without saying a word, and ordered the maid to tidy up two rooms, one bedroom and one study.At the beginning, I chose a room near Ming Le, but Bai Heyun didn't allow it, so I chose the room next to Ming Xiaoyang's bedroom.When the brothers and sisters asked about it, Bai Heyun said that there would be guests, and had nothing else to say.
On the day of the Shangyuan Festival, Zhao Anchen was granted the title of King Ning by an imperial decree.Zhao Anchen had dinner with his father and mother concubine, and he couldn't wait to leave the palace.
On the way to Wangfu, I passed by the lively Shangyuan Lantern Festival, and I remembered the beautiful scenery of the lotus pond that night.After dismounting and watching for a while, he asked the guards beside him to take the horse back to Prince Ning's mansion, saying that he was going to visit the Lantern Festival and go back on foot.
The Shangyuan Lantern Festival in Beijing is well-deserved of its reputation. The streets are very lively, the night is as bright as the day, and the lanterns are colorful, with various postures and radiant lights, which make people dizzying.Children are running around in groups.
"Ming Le! Don't run around, be careful not to bump into someone!" A clear and cheerful young voice came.
Zhao Anchen thought: "Mingle?" Hearing the sound and looking around, he saw an eleven or twelve-year-old girl wearing a plain fox-fur cape curiously moving around in the crowd, followed by a blue-haired girl in a white background. A handsome young man in a patterned robe and dark blue fox fur.
Zhao Anchen was taken aback for a moment, and stared blankly at the young man, with a slight smile on his lips.
Zhao Anchen stood out handsomely, standing on the street, standing still, inevitably attracting sneaky glances from the surrounding women.
Ming Le had a lot of fun visiting the Lantern Festival, how could he care about people, he turned his head and ran around, not paying attention to the fact that the person in front of him was not moving, nor did he know that this person was not hiding.He bumped his head against Zhao Anchen, covered his head and looked at the person in front of him, and asked in puzzlement, "Why are you in a daze?"
Ming Xiaoyang ran over, grabbed Ming Le, lowered his head and said, "Just say you don't run so fast, you hit someone?" He raised his head and said, "I'm sorry, my lord, the child ran into you by running around. ,Are you OK?"
Seeing that no one answered, Ming Xiaoyang just looked at himself blankly with no expression on his face, and thought: "Blind people?...Blind people still come to the Lantern Festival?" He raised his hand and waved in front of Zhao Anchen: "Are you really okay? ?”
"Nothing." Zhao Anchen replied coldly, slightly disappointed.
Ming Xiaoyang smiled brightly at Zhao Anchen: "That's good, let's go first!"
"Uh, wait a minute!"
Ming Xiaoyang blinked, wondering: "?"
Zhao Anchen asked softly, "You...don't know me?"
Ming Xiaoyang thought: "Do you want to touch porcelain or get close? You look handsome and handsome, and you look like a talented person. You should be a wealthy nobleman in your clothes, so you don't want to touch porcelain, right? That's close to you? I really can't think of this person Who is it..." He asked back: "Brother, should I know you?"
Zhao Anchen's heart was really like a broken leaf drifting by, the wind was cold and the snow was cold, and he was wronged for a while.
In the end, he was defeated by Ming Xiaoyang, and said with a cold expression, "I'm Zhao Yi, Zhao Anchen."
Ming Xiaoyang: "?" He thought, "Who? Who is Zhao Yi? Who is Zhao Anchen?"
When Ming Xiaoyang was a child, he only heard the adults call him the sixth prince, Chen'er, and he only called him Brother Chen. The last time he met him was six years old, so he really didn't know who this Zhao Yi, Zhao Anchen was.
Ming Xiaoyang stared at the young man in front of him, seeing that he was so handsome and handsome that he was in a daze for a moment.Returning to his senses, he said, "Ah, my name is Ming Huan, Ming Xiaoyang!"
Zhao Anchen replied coldly: "I know!"
Seeing Ming Le running away again, Ming Xiaoyang hurriedly chased after her, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, my sister ran away, see you later!" After finishing speaking, he chased Ming Le and ran into the crowd.
Ming Xiaoyang thought in his heart: "Monster, how can a man be so good-looking?", and because he was stunned by the beauty of a man for a moment, he was quite annoyed.
Looking at Ming Xiaoyang's back, Zhao Anchen felt very uncomfortable, shook his head and sighed: "Oh..."
Back at the palace, lying on the bed, unable to sleep.He was happy to meet Ming Xiaoyang just after he left the palace, and angry because he was watched for a long time but was not recognized. He clearly recognized Ming Xiaoyang in the crowd at a glance. have.I thought that I would go to live in Wu Guogong's mansion tomorrow, but now I am at odds with myself, and I am very depressed.In fact, I knew in my heart that it was normal not to recognize him since I hadn't seen him in nine years, but I still couldn't help but feel very disappointed.
It was already very late, Ming Xiaoyang dragged the excited Ming Le back to Duke Wu's mansion.Take a shower and go to bed.I also can't sleep a bit, for no reason, but inexplicably flustered.He got up and went to the kitchen to sneak a few sips of wine before going back to his room to sleep.
At dawn, Ming Xiaoyang, a bed-ridden professional, miraculously woke up early. There was winter cold outside the bed, and he lay in the bed with his eyes open and stared at the roof!Very suspicious of life.Last night, I dreamed of a man, that evildoer I met at the Lantern Festival. I dreamed that the two were sitting face to face and drinking with a warm atmosphere? ? ?Unbelievable...
Zhao Anchen was originally a quiet person. The government built a mansion for him with great fanfare, but he moved in quietly, without beating gongs or drums, without telling anyone, and without inviting anyone.I got up early in the morning and had breakfast, sat in the room in a daze, not knowing what to do.Originally planned to go to Wu Guogong's mansion today, but now his legs are still filled with lead, and he is too awkward to go.
Bai Heyun looked at the door again and again early in the morning, thinking: "Why hasn't Chen'er come yet?"
Ming Ruiran was about to go to court, and asked, "What's wrong with Yun'er?"
Bai Heyun: "Where's Chen'er?"
Ming Ruiran smiled and said, "Hahaha, the total is less than [-] meters, don't you know if you go and have a look?"
Bai Heyun walked to the gate of Prince Ning's Mansion, saw that the gate was closed tightly, and knocked on the door.The butler came out to open the door and said, "Who are you?"
Bai Heyun said: "I belong to King Ning...uh...I am the wife of Duke Wu, where is King Ning?"
The housekeeper said, "Oh, wait for me to go in and report."
Bai Heyun said: "What are you reporting?" He stepped in by himself.The butler had no choice but to follow behind.
"Chen'er? Where are you? Chen'er?" Bai Heyun called twice.His Highness King Ning came out like a wronged little white dog with his head downcast.
Bai Heyun asked: "I can't wait to come out to set up the mansion, why is this expression? Why don't you go to Wu Guogong's mansion? The room is ready for you."
Zhao Anchen and Bai Heyun entered the tea room and sat down together.Zhao Anchen recounted what happened last night.
Bai Heyun laughed loudly, and said: "You are extremely intelligent, you look like a handsome young man, but you are still a child!"
Zhao Anchen: "..."
Bai Heyun asked: "Then when are you going?"
Zhao Anchen replied indifferently: "As soon as you recognize me, I will go." Without expression, but very persistent.
Bai Heyun said: "When will my idiot recognize you?"
Bai Heyun was very amused looking at this fair and stubborn little face, and said: "Okay, okay, up to you! Xiaoyang practices in the morning and goes out in the afternoon, you can always run into him. I'm going back. "
"Okay." Zhao Anchen sent Bai Heyun out of the mansion.
After Ming Xiaoyang practiced, he remembered the incident of stealing a drink in the kitchen last night. Under the age of 16, the Duke of Wu is not allowed to drink alcohol, but the wine is really delicious. Counting with his fingers, his birthday is March 16th, and today is the first lunar month sixteen.It's less than two months away.He thought to himself: "I'm going to be [-] soon, so it's okay to drink some? It's better not to make troubles, I'll go out and drink secretly!"
Before I had lunch, I ran out of the mansion to play. I went out of the mansion gate to look around, and went straight to Jufulou.Before dinner time, there were not many people in Jufu Building, so Ming Xiaoyang went upstairs and chose a seat by the window to sit down, ordered a jug of wine and two dishes of food.
At this time, Zhao Anchen felt that instead of staying in the mansion and being depressed, it would be better to go around the streets, stay in the palace for so long, and also see the prosperity of the capital outside.Furthermore, Bai Heyun explained that Xiaoyang would go out in the afternoon. Although the night was as bright as day last night, it was not daytime after all. If he met Ming Xiaoyang during the day, would he be able to recognize himself?
Zhao Anchen dressed neatly and left Prince Ning's Mansion.Walking around on the street, I saw that the Jufu Building is just in the middle of the main street, and it is also the only way to get in and out of the neighborhood. If you sit upstairs and look down, you may see the person you want to see.Thinking of this, I looked up and saw Ming Xiaoyang drinking in front of the window!
Zhao Anchen walked up to Jufu Building, came to Ming Xiaoyang's table, and said, "Young master, you look familiar, can we have a drink together?"
Ming Xiaoyang raised his head, felt palpitations, and thought: "My God! Isn't this the evildoer at the lantern festival yesterday? It looks better in the daytime! I dreamed of drinking with him last night, how did it really come true?"
Ming Xiaoyang smiled awkwardly, dodged his eyes, and said stammeringly: "Ah... oh, it's Zhao Yi, please sit down!", and casually called the waiter to serve another pot of wine.
Zhao Anchen sat down opposite Ming Xiaoyang, and the waiter brought a set of bowls and chopsticks and a wine cup.
Seeing Ming Xiaoyang's eyes flickering, Zhao Anchen guessed that he was thinking about the Lantern Festival last night, and said, "Brother Ming, did you sleep well last night?"
Ming Xiaoyang took a sip of his wine, coughed for a while, then took a furtive glance at Zhao Anchen, and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Why are you so free to drink today?"
Zhao Anchen said: "I just have nothing to do, I just moved here yesterday, I'm not familiar with the place, so I'm going out for a walk."
When Ming Xiaoyang heard this, he smiled and said: "I know this place well! My family lives in Duke Wu's mansion, and I have been everywhere. If you have nothing to do, you can come to me, and I will take you to play!"
Zhao Anchen replied lightly: "Okay. Then have you been to Manchun Courtyard?"
Ming Xiaoyang almost choked again, thinking to himself: "Looking at the person who looks pure and clean, how can he say that he is Manchunyuan to someone I don't know very well? You really can't be fooled by appearances!"
Ming Xiaoyang replied: "I have never been there, if I did, I would be beaten to death by my mother!"
Zhao Anchen said in his heart: "I clearly remember that Aunt Yun and Mother also went there." He asked, "Why were you beaten to death?"
Ming Xiaoyang looked at the person in front of him and asked solemnly, and said with a smile: "Why didn't I get beaten to death when I went to the Fengyue Festival?"
"Oh, that's right." Zhao Anchen lowered his eyes, pretending to be calm, but felt cramped for a moment.
Seeing his expression, Ming Xiaoyang asked back, "Have you been there?"
Zhao Anchen: "No, I just heard someone mention it."
Ming Xiaoyang smiled charmingly: "Oh? I thought you..."
Zhao Anchen looked up at Ming Xiaoyang, and asked coldly, "What do you think?"
"Uh, no, then...do you want to go?" Ming Xiaoyang asked.
Zhao Anchen's expression froze, and he said, "I don't want to."
Ming Xiaoyang said: "I really want to go!"
Zhao Anchen stared at Ming Xiaoyang with wide eyes, and whispered angrily, "What?"
Ming Xiaoyang picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and said, "Huh? Why are you so angry? I heard that the Baixiangzui in Manchunyuan is brewed by itself. The fine nectar and jade liquid that come out, I really want to taste it."
Zhao Anchen breathed a sigh of relief, raised his wine glass, took a sip, and said softly, "I see."
Ming Xiaoyang poked his head slightly, and smelled Zhao Anchen: "The quiet sandalwood on your body smells very good, it has a familiar feeling, very reassuring, but I can't remember where I smelled it."
Zhao Anchen smiled slightly and remained silent.
Seeing this smile, Ming Xiaoyang suddenly felt like he was in a trance, and once he regained his senses, he hurriedly lowered his head and took another sip of wine, thinking: "Don't dream about him again tonight, I'm not normal... ...If anyone becomes Zhao Yi's wife in the future, will he still need to drink? He will live ten years longer than others!"
Ming Xiaoyang asked: "Where does your family live? Is it far away?"
Zhao Anchen: "It's not too far away, I have a chance to take you there."
Ming Xiaoyang smiled warmly: "Okay." He said in his heart: "This person is pretty good, his face is as cold as ice, but he is not so repulsive."
Ming Xiaoyang asked again: "You are so beautiful, who are your parents? Oh, my father is Wu Guogong, and my mother is Mrs. Yun."
Zhao Anchen said softly, "You... think I'm pretty?"
Ming Xiaoyang smiled embarrassedly, lowered his head slightly, turned the wine cup on the table lightly, and whispered: "Ah... um! It's pretty pretty."
Zhao Anchen said: "My father's surname is Zhao, who has no name, and my mother's surname is Mu. Few people know her."
"Ah? No name?" Ming Xiaoyang was a little surprised, and thought: "Is there really anything? There are people without a name?" I thought maybe I didn't want to say it, and it's not easy to ask deeply.Then he asked again: "How did you know me?"
Zhao Anchen said: "Is there anyone who doesn't know you?"
Ming Xiaoyang smiled proudly: "That's right, from childhood to adulthood, it's hard not to recognize me, hahaha!"
Zhao Anchen responded calmly: "En."
The two drank wine, you and I chatted slowly, very interestingly for a long time.
Ming Xiaoyang was very happy, there was really no one who could sit down and chat with him slowly, thinking about how he used to jump up and down all over the place, and never sat down and had a good chat with others.
After drinking a pot and wanted another pot, Zhao Anchen said, "Don't drink it, you are still young, so it is not suitable for you to drink so much wine."
Ming Xiaoyang thought: "That's fine, if I drink too much when I'm happy, and go back with a smell of alcohol, my parents will find out, and I'm going to die again!" He laughed and said, "How am I so young? I'm as tall as you , how small is it?"
Zhao Anchen said: "Well, I have grown up."
Ming Xiaoyang: "?"
Zhao Anchen chuckled lightly and said, "It's nothing."
Seeing this fleeting chuckle, Ming Xiaoyang stopped talking again.I don't know what I'm thinking.
Zhao Anchen said: "It's getting dark, let's go back."
Ming Xiaoyang: "Well, that's fine, you must come and play with me!"
Zhao Anchen said: "Okay."
The two went downstairs and left the Jufu Building. Zhao Anchen looked at Ming Xiaoyang who hadn't walked a few steps from behind, feeling mixed feelings of sadness and joy in his heart. The joy was that he had chatted with Ming Xiaoyang for a long time, but the sad thing was that he still hadn't talked with Ming Xiaoyang after so long. recognized...
Ming Xiaoyang suddenly turned his head to look at Zhao Anchen, Zhao Anchen was taken aback.
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Don't forget to come and find me!"
Zhao Anchen sighed, and said: "Understood, I will go, let's go!"
Ming Xiaoyang waved his hand and left.
Zhao Anchen returned to Prince Ning's Mansion, sat in front of the case, and drank tea slowly.After a while, I called the housekeeper and asked, "Where in Bianjing City is there a quiet and spacious house with a good view?"
The butler replied: "I heard that there is a house in the northern suburbs called Qingyuan, which is very elegant and spacious. The inner waterside garden is exquisite and elegant, and the layout is elegant. Because it is not in the bustling area of the capital, it is quiet and pleasant. It is said that it was originally Zhang Hanlin's house. Hanlin retired last year and went back to his hometown in Suzhou, so he entrusted the house to a commercial company to sell it, because the price is so high, it seems that there is no owner yet, the prince wants to see it?"
Zhao Anchen said: "Well, I'll take a look when I'm free. By the way, remove the palace mark from the carriage of Prince Ning's Palace, don't make it too public."
The steward said: "Yes, my lord."
☆、Second first meeting [-]
Two days later, Zhao Anchen went to the northern suburbs to see the Qing Garden, just as the housekeeper said, it was elegant, spacious, quiet and pleasant.
The northern suburb is secluded here, surrounded by mountains and rivers, seemingly inaccessible and far away from the hustle and bustle, but it is less than half an hour away from the bustling center of the capital by horseback.The scenery outside the garden is beautiful, and the inside of the garden is as quiet and beautiful as ink painting.
Zhao Anchen told the housekeeper to make a reservation here.The plaque hanging over the gate of this garden was written with the word "Qingyuan". Zhao Anchen stared at it for a moment, then told the housekeeper, "Let's call it 'Nuanyuan'."
Butler: "Yes."
The entrance to the garden is spacious, and the waterside pavilions and flowers are ingenious. Walking slowly into the garden, the tea room is simple, the study is elegant, and the courtyard is tidy.In the deepest part of the garden is a spacious and transparent sleeping residence, surrounded by famous flowers and plants, which are exquisitely maintained, and it is called Qingxiangju.
Zhao Anchen thoughtfully, smiled slightly, and said, "Changed to Chaomuju."
Butler: "Yes."
Zhao Anchen turned around with his hands behind his back, and took another look at the tea room and study room: "The tea room is called 'Fate Room', and the study room is called 'Sansheng Pavilion'."
Steward: "Yes. The old slave has written it down."
Zhao Anchen ordered the steward, saying: "I will go back to live in the palace for three days, after three days you have to tidy up the place, I come to live here, if anyone goes to Ningwang's mansion to look for the king, you will say that you don't know where the king has gone , send someone here to report to me.”
Butler: "Yes, my lord."
Ming Xiaoyang has not been out of the Duke of Wu's mansion since he and Zhao Anchen left for a few days.
Ming Jue asked Bai Heyun: "Mother, Yang Yang is sick? I've been stuck at home for a few days, isn't it right?"
Bai Heyun glanced at Ming Xiaoyang who was practicing in the yard, and said, "This idiot has never worked so hard before, it's a bit strange."
Ming Ruiran said optimistically, "Maybe it's because he's grown up and calmed down."
Ming Juedao was slightly surprised, and asked, "Grow up all of a sudden?"
The three of them looked at Ming Xiaoyang, who was struggling against the rock all day long and forgot to go out in the field every day, and felt quite suspicious.
While beating the stone, Ming Xiaoyang muttered in his heart: "Zhao Yi said he came to look for me. It's been so many days. I've been waiting at home, but I haven't seen him come to me. What a disgusting, dishonest guy! My lord It's not just you as a friend, I'm going out to play right now, don't wait!" Thinking of this, he suddenly stopped fighting, put on his robe, and left the mansion.
Bai Heyun chuckled: "Oh, I'm not sick."
Ming Xiaoyang was going to visit Kang Wang to play, but he didn't go far, and saw that the mansion under construction next to Wu Guogong's mansion was completed, and the lintel read "Ning Wang's Mansion".He thought to himself: "Which prince is King Ning? The fourth prince? It should not be Brother Chen. If Brother Chen leaves the palace, he will definitely come to me."
As I was walking, I heard a passer-by say: "There is a new music workshop called Qingyunfang in Guangqing Street. The music of the qin and the singing and dancing are superb. If you have time, you must go and enjoy it!" "Yes."
Ming Xiaoyang was depressed, so he happened to go to watch singing and dancing, listen to the piano, just to relax.
This Qingyunfang looks like an antique pavilion, and there are many guests, most of whom are literati.Ming Xiaoyang walked in, and before he could find a seat to sit down, he saw King Kang and King Qing were also watching the song and dance, and thought: "I was just looking for you to play, so I met you."
The two leisurely princes were very happy to see Ming Xiaoyang, and stretched out their hands to say hello: "Brother Ming! Here!"
Ming Xiaoyang sat down and looked down at the singing and dancing.Kang Wang said with a smile: "Brother Ming came late, there was a beautiful Persian dance just now, it was very exciting!"
King Qing asked Ming Xiaoyang: "I haven't seen you for several days, what did you play?"
Ming Xiaoyang said sadly: "It took a few days of work. By the way, let me ask you, who is King Ning?"
King Qing said with a smile: "I just heard that that is my sixth brother. He finally came out. We thought he couldn't come out. Haha, it just so happens that we plan to go and play with him later, do you want to go together?"
Kang Wangdao: "I guess the two of them won't get along well, my sixth brother is chilly, how about it? Come with us to Ning Wang's Mansion to refresh yourself later?"
Ming Xiaoyang was startled: "Who? The sixth prince?"
King Qing smiled and said, "Yes, who else is there if it's not him? Do you think the queen can release my fourth brother? He is even more hopeless than the sixth brother. He probably won't be able to get out in this lifetime."
Ming Xiaoyang got up and went downstairs without saying a word, and left Qingyunfang.
Kang Wang asked strangely: "What did he come for? He left so soon?"
King Qing was also very surprised: "Ming Xiaoyang is not quite right today, he was smiling all day long, when he just came here, his face was covered with dark clouds, and he hurried away with a face full of ashes?"
Kang Wang agreed: "Well, I found it too." Then he turned his head to look at the song and dance: "Come on, keep watching, ouch, beauty~"
King Qing said disdainfully: "Listening to the piano and watching the dance, cultivating sentiment, what beauty? Third brother, you are still in a mess."
Kang Wang said that the way is different and does not conspire with each other: "You are the same as the father, you don't know how to appreciate! After reading it today, I can draw two more pictures of beauties when I go back!" After speaking, he was contemptuously glanced at by King Qing.
Ming Xiaoyang rode a horse and ran to Prince Ning's mansion and knocked on the door.The butler came out and opened the door and asked, "Are you..."
Ming Xiaoyang pushed open the door and rushed in, and replied: "I am Ming Xiaoyang from Duke Wu's mansion." After entering the courtyard, he shouted inside: "Brother Chen! Brother Chen?"
When the butler heard that it belonged to Duke Wu's mansion, he didn't stop him, and of course he couldn't stop him, allowing him to break in.Answer: "The prince is not here."
Ming Xiaoyang turned around and asked, "Why aren't you here? Where did you go?"
The housekeeper said: "I don't know, my master, what's the matter? I'll tell you when the prince comes back."
Ming Xiaoyang asked again: "When did he leave the palace?"
Steward: "It's been five days."
Ming Xiaoyang: "Not here all this time?"
Butler: "Yes"
Ming Xiaoyang asked: "When will you come back?"
The housekeeper said: "This old slave doesn't know."
Ming Xiaoyang said helplessly: "When he comes back, you can tell someone to tell me at Duke Wu's mansion, I will come again!"
The butler nodded and said, "Yes, my lord."
Ming Xiaoyang left Prince Ning's mansion in displeasure, and returned to Duke Wu's mansion, not in the mood to play anymore.
He went straight to Ning Zhai and asked, "Mother, Brother Chen is King Ning? Our neighbor?"
Bai Heyun was startled, and thought: "What's the situation? Did you recognize it or didn't you recognize it?" He replied casually, "Ah, yes, I just heard about it."
Ming Xiaoyang asked very dissatisfied: "Then why didn't he come to me?"
Bai Heyun looked to the side, feeling a little guilty: "Maybe I'm busy." He thought: "It seems that I didn't recognize it. Why are these two kids running on me?"
Ming Xiaoyang muttered unhappily: "Oh", and went back to his room resentfully.
When King Kang and King Qing arrived at King Ning's mansion, they didn't see the sixth brother either.
King Kang asked King Qing: "Where can the sixth brother go? I heard from the steward that he will not live in Prince Ning's Mansion after leaving the palace. Could it be that he was suffocated in the palace and disappeared as soon as he came out?"
King Qing also felt strange: "Sixth brother is a bit weird sometimes, and sometimes he is a bit stubborn. Let him go. It's a good thing that sixth brother is out. We have another playmate, and we will look for him when he comes back!"
Kang Wang agreed, it was getting late, and the two went back to their homes.
North of Bianjing, Canglong Mountain.
Starting early in the morning, Ming Xiaoyang rode with King Kang and King Qing for an hour and a half, and arrived at Canglong Mountain.The scenery here is beautiful, the mountains are full of flowers, plants and trees, lush and green, and the crisp birdsong lingers in the mountains and forests.Canglong Mountain is the largest mountain near Bianjing, with a clear ridge, standing on a flat place below the mountain and looking at the mountains, it stretches endlessly.Climbing to the top of the mountain, you can see the beautiful scenery of the mountains and peaks, and there is a small river not far from the mountain, which is clear and trickling.
The three dismounted and went to the river to rest for a while, and one of them stopped to drink water.
Sitting by the river, King Qing asked, "What a wonderful place, have you ever been here?"
The two answered in unison: "No."
King Qing said with emotion: "I have only been here once. I just left the palace at that time, determined to travel all over the mountains and rivers of the Song Dynasty, and swim to my heart's content, so as to make up for my 16 years of depression. Unfortunately, my physical strength is not good enough. I haven’t swam anywhere so far. This Canglong Mountain is one of the few mountains and waters I’ve visited that left a deep impression on me, so I invite you to come and play.”
King Kang asked, "Are there any fairies in the mountains?"
Ming Xiaoyang laughed: "Hahaha, you are still a fairy, except for us three elders who don't even have personal cigarettes, birds don't shit, there are few people, mountains, forests, and wilderness are uninhabited!" Then he asked King Xiang Qing: "Zhao Qing, What's the fun here?"
King Qing replied: "It is true that there is no one around Canglong Mountain. The birds don't poop. The birds all over the mountain are very beautiful."
Ming Xiaoyang nodded and smiled, "Well, the mountain is full of bird droppings, what else?"
King Qing said: "There are also many rare and rare animals that we have never seen before. The most amazing thing here is that there is a small lake formed by clear springs in the hinterland of the mountain. There are ups and downs, and when the wind blows, there will be the sound of dragons singing, so it is named Canglong Mountain. I heard the day before yesterday that someone saw a unicorn here a long time ago. Wild game, let’s revisit the old place by the way, I guess you two have never been here before.”
Kang Wang opened his eyes: "Kirin? Is it real or not?"
King Qing: "I heard it is."
Ming Xiaoyang also urged with great interest: "I want to see the unicorn too, let's go into the mountain!" Then he took the horse and walked towards the foot of the mountain, carrying the bow and arrow on his back, putting the dagger and fire pocket on his waist, and put the horse on his back. They were tied to a tree at the foot of the mountain.
The three of them talked and laughed all the way up the mountain, and when they entered the forest, it really was a rich mountain, with a lot of pheasants, hares and small animals, and they hunted some after a while.
At noon, the unicorn hadn't been seen yet, but the small lake in the middle of the mountain was indeed seen. Ming Xiaoyang gave a ignorant wow, admiring that the trip was worthwhile, and said in his heart: "It's a good place, I will definitely take it with me in the future. Zhao Yilai..." Thinking of this, he felt unhappy: "I haven't come to see me for almost half a month, why do you miss him, and I don't know him well, and he has nothing but good looks."
At this time, a hungry voice suddenly came from Kang Wang's belly clearly. These two princes were really incompetent, and they didn't catch anything. They stared straight at Ming Xiaoyang's pile of spoils, Ming Xiaoyang Yang smiled and said, "Oh! Asking me to come and play has another meaning, haha, that's how it is."
The two princes went to collect some firewood and took out the fire folder, Ming Xiaoyang packed up the prey, and lit a fire for barbecue in a slightly flat place halfway up the mountain, very happy.The game was about to be cooked, and King Kang took out a few small bottles from his pocket, and said, "This is, salt, seasoning spices... come here, let me sprinkle it on, I can't live up to Brother Ming's good martial arts!" !"
"I can't tell, Zhao Che, besides being lustful, you are also quite delicate? Well, I'm sorry, let's try Lord Kang's handicraft!" Ming Xiaoyang was very happy.
"Am I lustful?" Kang Wang expressed doubts.
Ming Xiaoyang and Qing Wang were very surprised when they heard this question, Ming Xiaoyang teased Kang Wang: "Aren't you conscious?"
"I am a pure and good young man, please don't wrong me and ruin my reputation, brother Ming!" Kang Wang argued.
The venison was roasted by the fire, and the fragrance was overflowing. King Qing was drooling when he saw the barbecue, and hurriedly urged: "If you are humble, the meat will be burnt. Hurry up. Now leave the royal father's house." Eyelids are under my eyes, facing the countless pictures of spring palaces in your palace study, you still say that you are pure and pure? What are you talking about, you are a big girl? Hurry up, hurry up..."
Kang Wang carefully sprinkled it on the barbecue with a small bottle, and said, "Which one of you hasn't seen my masterpiece? Pretend to be innocent!"
Ming Xiaoyang blinked his eyes and asked: "You, a pure and clean girl, start pretending to be pure, okay?... Uh, it's ready to eat after baking!" Ming Xiaoyang picked up the dagger and sharpened branches, and cut them one by one. Insert it on the branch and hand it to the two crippled princes who can't even wield a knife.We had a great time chatting while eating.
"Let me tell you, the pictures of beauties I draw all have storylines, which are fascinating and hearty. They are not the same as other people's blatant and vulgar ones. I think I showed them to my sixth brother, but I still haven't returned them to me. Say I draw well! Don't look at the coldness of the sixth brother, and he is a person who knows elegance! Fifth brother, you are too hypocritical. After reading so many pictures of my beauties, you still keep mocking me for being lustful!" Kang Wang very proud.
King Qing replied: "Am I hypocritical? I'm tired of seeing it. You haven't gotten tired of drawing it, but you just find it incredible! Third brother, don't brag, how could sixth brother be interested in that!"
Kang Wang was very sure: "Of course, I like it very much. If you don't believe me, you can ask him! He is also a man, so he is naturally interested!"
Ming Xiaoyang's eyes lit up: "Have you seen King Ning?"
The two said in unison: "No."
King Qing said: "He has been holding back for 18 years, worse than the two of us. I don't know where he went to release him! The housekeeper of his palace said he hasn't returned yet!"
"Oh." Ming Xiaoyang responded softly.
King Qing asked Kang Wang curiously: "Third brother likes beautiful women so much, why has he been out of the palace for so long? Not only are there no princesses and side concubines in your mansion, but there is not even a girl who is sleeping in bed? Or is it hidden somewhere else?"
Kang Wang was asked this question, thought for a moment, and replied calmly: "I don't have any favorites. This king is delicate and expensive, so I can't just let it go!"
"Hahahahaha! I laughed so hard! You... ouch! Hahaha..." Ming Xiaoyang laughed loudly, holding up the barbecue and laughing forward and backward.
"What are you laughing at, I'm still a boy, what's so ridiculous?" King Kang looked at the two of them aggrievedly.
King Qing couldn't stop laughing, he sat on the ground and laughed continuously: "You? Hahaha! You are a boy?...Hahaha, my God, hahaha! Brother Ming is almost the same, are you?...Hahahaha! You You won't say that your first kiss is still there?"
"Is it strange?" Kang Wang was very innocent in his heart.
When I heard about Yingyingyan, my mind was full
The Duke of Wu's mansion was bustling and bustling as usual, and it had been like this since the early morning.
After the whole family washed up and had breakfast, Ming Ruiran and Ming Jue father and son dressed neatly and went out to court together.In the morning, Bai Heyun would occasionally send some affairs to Zhuzhai, and Ming Xiaoyang would take advantage of this time to sneak back into the bed for a sneaky sleep, and it would not be long before Bai Heyun would find out that he would grab his ears and groan They dragged it out screaming and threw it into the courtyard to practice.Huo Yuan taught Ming Le martial arts in the courtyard.Butler Zhu and the female envoys cleaned up and prepared for the affairs of the mansion in the morning. The entire Wu State Mansion was not in a hurry, but it was full of vitality, and it was never clear that it was cold in the morning.
On this day, Ming Xiaoyang was reluctantly dragged out of the bed, and was driven to the courtyard by Bai Heyun like a sheep.
Ming Xiaoyang saw that there were six more big stones in the courtyard, and the three big ones were as tall as a person, and the inner diameter was more than one meter thick.The three small ones are about half of the big rock.
Asked in surprise: "Mother, what is this, it looks so ugly in the courtyard!"
Bai Heyun said: "Today I will teach you 'Bone Crushing', 'Tendon Melting' and 'Ten Thorns'!"
Ming Xiaoyang regained his energy when he heard it. Although he likes to stay in bed, he still likes to practice martial arts. Now that he has mastered nine secret skills, he can finally learn all of them today.
She suddenly became as well-behaved as she was when she was a child. She blinked her big eyes and looked at her mother, saying, "En!"
Bai Heyun walked up to a small boulder, slapped it down, and it shattered into small stones all over the ground, saying: "This is 'broken bone'".
Ming Xiaoyang was shocked!I went up and squeezed my mother's hand, not only was it not hurt, but it was still soft!
Bai Heyun walked to another stone and slapped it down again. The stone didn't move at all, and said, "This is 'resolving tendons'."
Ming Xiaoyang raised his eyebrows and lowered his eyebrows, questioning: "Ah???"
Bai Heyun smiled, and said, "I'll hit the bone again, and you can see the difference from the previous one."
As he spoke, he patched the second stone with his palm, and the outside of the stone was shattered, but the stone inside turned into powder and scattered all over the ground.
Ming Xiaoyang: "..."
Bai Heyun walked to the third stone, stretched out a little finger, and stabbed at the stone, the little finger went straight into the stone!When he withdrew his hand, a hole the size of a little finger was left on the stone!Bai Heyun stretched out his hands again, and grabbed the stone like a tiger's claw, leaving ten holes in the stone, saying: "This is the 'ten thorns'. It takes a year to practice all of them! The remaining three The big stone is for you to practice."
Ming Xiaoyang was so frightened that his soul smoked out, and he murmured softly: "Yes..."
After Bai Heyun taught each item in detail for a while, he went back to Zhuzhai.Ming Xiaoyang stood in the courtyard and looked at the broken stones on the ground, thinking: "It's bad luck to be a stone, move to my house, meet my mother, and end up dead..."
He looked down at his fingers again, and whispered suspiciously: "You guys can fight a little bit, and don't break them before you finish your practice."
At noon approaching, Ming Ruiran and Ming Jue went back to the mansion. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Ming Xiaoyang exerting strength against the stone, Ming Jue said with a smile: "Yang Yang worked hard today, usually he would have already run to the dinner table at this time. waited before."
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Brother Jue said that I'm like an idiot!"
Ming Jue laughed loudly and went back to his room to change clothes.
Ming Ruiran came over to watch his son practice.Ming Xiaoyang turned his head and asked: "Father, you are not afraid that mother will have a nightmare one night, and she will attack you with a trick of 'breaking bones', 'melting tendons' and 'ten thorns'?"
Ming Ruiran smiled triumphantly: "Your mother always sleeps in my arms, how can you have nightmares?" She stabbed back at the stone, and five holes appeared in the large boulder in an instant!Ming Ruiran also smiled and went back to change clothes.
Ming Xiaoyang stood there blankly, thinking: "Who is this family?"
In a blink of an eye, it is already deep winter, and Shangyuan is approaching.
We all know that on the same street, a mansion is being built less than a hundred meters away from Duke Wu's mansion, but they don't know that this is the mansion of King Ning who has not yet been crowned king.Seeing that it is about to be completed, it is very grand, and often attracts others to stop and watch, and whisper to guess who the owner is.
Ming Xiaoyang is also curious, always asking her mother who this new neighbor is.Bai Heyun smiled without saying a word, and ordered the maid to tidy up two rooms, one bedroom and one study.At the beginning, I chose a room near Ming Le, but Bai Heyun didn't allow it, so I chose the room next to Ming Xiaoyang's bedroom.When the brothers and sisters asked about it, Bai Heyun said that there would be guests, and had nothing else to say.
On the day of the Shangyuan Festival, Zhao Anchen was granted the title of King Ning by an imperial decree.Zhao Anchen had dinner with his father and mother concubine, and he couldn't wait to leave the palace.
On the way to Wangfu, I passed by the lively Shangyuan Lantern Festival, and I remembered the beautiful scenery of the lotus pond that night.After dismounting and watching for a while, he asked the guards beside him to take the horse back to Prince Ning's mansion, saying that he was going to visit the Lantern Festival and go back on foot.
The Shangyuan Lantern Festival in Beijing is well-deserved of its reputation. The streets are very lively, the night is as bright as the day, and the lanterns are colorful, with various postures and radiant lights, which make people dizzying.Children are running around in groups.
"Ming Le! Don't run around, be careful not to bump into someone!" A clear and cheerful young voice came.
Zhao Anchen thought: "Mingle?" Hearing the sound and looking around, he saw an eleven or twelve-year-old girl wearing a plain fox-fur cape curiously moving around in the crowd, followed by a blue-haired girl in a white background. A handsome young man in a patterned robe and dark blue fox fur.
Zhao Anchen was taken aback for a moment, and stared blankly at the young man, with a slight smile on his lips.
Zhao Anchen stood out handsomely, standing on the street, standing still, inevitably attracting sneaky glances from the surrounding women.
Ming Le had a lot of fun visiting the Lantern Festival, how could he care about people, he turned his head and ran around, not paying attention to the fact that the person in front of him was not moving, nor did he know that this person was not hiding.He bumped his head against Zhao Anchen, covered his head and looked at the person in front of him, and asked in puzzlement, "Why are you in a daze?"
Ming Xiaoyang ran over, grabbed Ming Le, lowered his head and said, "Just say you don't run so fast, you hit someone?" He raised his head and said, "I'm sorry, my lord, the child ran into you by running around. ,Are you OK?"
Seeing that no one answered, Ming Xiaoyang just looked at himself blankly with no expression on his face, and thought: "Blind people?...Blind people still come to the Lantern Festival?" He raised his hand and waved in front of Zhao Anchen: "Are you really okay? ?”
"Nothing." Zhao Anchen replied coldly, slightly disappointed.
Ming Xiaoyang smiled brightly at Zhao Anchen: "That's good, let's go first!"
"Uh, wait a minute!"
Ming Xiaoyang blinked, wondering: "?"
Zhao Anchen asked softly, "You...don't know me?"
Ming Xiaoyang thought: "Do you want to touch porcelain or get close? You look handsome and handsome, and you look like a talented person. You should be a wealthy nobleman in your clothes, so you don't want to touch porcelain, right? That's close to you? I really can't think of this person Who is it..." He asked back: "Brother, should I know you?"
Zhao Anchen's heart was really like a broken leaf drifting by, the wind was cold and the snow was cold, and he was wronged for a while.
In the end, he was defeated by Ming Xiaoyang, and said with a cold expression, "I'm Zhao Yi, Zhao Anchen."
Ming Xiaoyang: "?" He thought, "Who? Who is Zhao Yi? Who is Zhao Anchen?"
When Ming Xiaoyang was a child, he only heard the adults call him the sixth prince, Chen'er, and he only called him Brother Chen. The last time he met him was six years old, so he really didn't know who this Zhao Yi, Zhao Anchen was.
Ming Xiaoyang stared at the young man in front of him, seeing that he was so handsome and handsome that he was in a daze for a moment.Returning to his senses, he said, "Ah, my name is Ming Huan, Ming Xiaoyang!"
Zhao Anchen replied coldly: "I know!"
Seeing Ming Le running away again, Ming Xiaoyang hurriedly chased after her, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, my sister ran away, see you later!" After finishing speaking, he chased Ming Le and ran into the crowd.
Ming Xiaoyang thought in his heart: "Monster, how can a man be so good-looking?", and because he was stunned by the beauty of a man for a moment, he was quite annoyed.
Looking at Ming Xiaoyang's back, Zhao Anchen felt very uncomfortable, shook his head and sighed: "Oh..."
Back at the palace, lying on the bed, unable to sleep.He was happy to meet Ming Xiaoyang just after he left the palace, and angry because he was watched for a long time but was not recognized. He clearly recognized Ming Xiaoyang in the crowd at a glance. have.I thought that I would go to live in Wu Guogong's mansion tomorrow, but now I am at odds with myself, and I am very depressed.In fact, I knew in my heart that it was normal not to recognize him since I hadn't seen him in nine years, but I still couldn't help but feel very disappointed.
It was already very late, Ming Xiaoyang dragged the excited Ming Le back to Duke Wu's mansion.Take a shower and go to bed.I also can't sleep a bit, for no reason, but inexplicably flustered.He got up and went to the kitchen to sneak a few sips of wine before going back to his room to sleep.
At dawn, Ming Xiaoyang, a bed-ridden professional, miraculously woke up early. There was winter cold outside the bed, and he lay in the bed with his eyes open and stared at the roof!Very suspicious of life.Last night, I dreamed of a man, that evildoer I met at the Lantern Festival. I dreamed that the two were sitting face to face and drinking with a warm atmosphere? ? ?Unbelievable...
Zhao Anchen was originally a quiet person. The government built a mansion for him with great fanfare, but he moved in quietly, without beating gongs or drums, without telling anyone, and without inviting anyone.I got up early in the morning and had breakfast, sat in the room in a daze, not knowing what to do.Originally planned to go to Wu Guogong's mansion today, but now his legs are still filled with lead, and he is too awkward to go.
Bai Heyun looked at the door again and again early in the morning, thinking: "Why hasn't Chen'er come yet?"
Ming Ruiran was about to go to court, and asked, "What's wrong with Yun'er?"
Bai Heyun: "Where's Chen'er?"
Ming Ruiran smiled and said, "Hahaha, the total is less than [-] meters, don't you know if you go and have a look?"
Bai Heyun walked to the gate of Prince Ning's Mansion, saw that the gate was closed tightly, and knocked on the door.The butler came out to open the door and said, "Who are you?"
Bai Heyun said: "I belong to King Ning...uh...I am the wife of Duke Wu, where is King Ning?"
The housekeeper said, "Oh, wait for me to go in and report."
Bai Heyun said: "What are you reporting?" He stepped in by himself.The butler had no choice but to follow behind.
"Chen'er? Where are you? Chen'er?" Bai Heyun called twice.His Highness King Ning came out like a wronged little white dog with his head downcast.
Bai Heyun asked: "I can't wait to come out to set up the mansion, why is this expression? Why don't you go to Wu Guogong's mansion? The room is ready for you."
Zhao Anchen and Bai Heyun entered the tea room and sat down together.Zhao Anchen recounted what happened last night.
Bai Heyun laughed loudly, and said: "You are extremely intelligent, you look like a handsome young man, but you are still a child!"
Zhao Anchen: "..."
Bai Heyun asked: "Then when are you going?"
Zhao Anchen replied indifferently: "As soon as you recognize me, I will go." Without expression, but very persistent.
Bai Heyun said: "When will my idiot recognize you?"
Bai Heyun was very amused looking at this fair and stubborn little face, and said: "Okay, okay, up to you! Xiaoyang practices in the morning and goes out in the afternoon, you can always run into him. I'm going back. "
"Okay." Zhao Anchen sent Bai Heyun out of the mansion.
After Ming Xiaoyang practiced, he remembered the incident of stealing a drink in the kitchen last night. Under the age of 16, the Duke of Wu is not allowed to drink alcohol, but the wine is really delicious. Counting with his fingers, his birthday is March 16th, and today is the first lunar month sixteen.It's less than two months away.He thought to himself: "I'm going to be [-] soon, so it's okay to drink some? It's better not to make troubles, I'll go out and drink secretly!"
Before I had lunch, I ran out of the mansion to play. I went out of the mansion gate to look around, and went straight to Jufulou.Before dinner time, there were not many people in Jufu Building, so Ming Xiaoyang went upstairs and chose a seat by the window to sit down, ordered a jug of wine and two dishes of food.
At this time, Zhao Anchen felt that instead of staying in the mansion and being depressed, it would be better to go around the streets, stay in the palace for so long, and also see the prosperity of the capital outside.Furthermore, Bai Heyun explained that Xiaoyang would go out in the afternoon. Although the night was as bright as day last night, it was not daytime after all. If he met Ming Xiaoyang during the day, would he be able to recognize himself?
Zhao Anchen dressed neatly and left Prince Ning's Mansion.Walking around on the street, I saw that the Jufu Building is just in the middle of the main street, and it is also the only way to get in and out of the neighborhood. If you sit upstairs and look down, you may see the person you want to see.Thinking of this, I looked up and saw Ming Xiaoyang drinking in front of the window!
Zhao Anchen walked up to Jufu Building, came to Ming Xiaoyang's table, and said, "Young master, you look familiar, can we have a drink together?"
Ming Xiaoyang raised his head, felt palpitations, and thought: "My God! Isn't this the evildoer at the lantern festival yesterday? It looks better in the daytime! I dreamed of drinking with him last night, how did it really come true?"
Ming Xiaoyang smiled awkwardly, dodged his eyes, and said stammeringly: "Ah... oh, it's Zhao Yi, please sit down!", and casually called the waiter to serve another pot of wine.
Zhao Anchen sat down opposite Ming Xiaoyang, and the waiter brought a set of bowls and chopsticks and a wine cup.
Seeing Ming Xiaoyang's eyes flickering, Zhao Anchen guessed that he was thinking about the Lantern Festival last night, and said, "Brother Ming, did you sleep well last night?"
Ming Xiaoyang took a sip of his wine, coughed for a while, then took a furtive glance at Zhao Anchen, and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Why are you so free to drink today?"
Zhao Anchen said: "I just have nothing to do, I just moved here yesterday, I'm not familiar with the place, so I'm going out for a walk."
When Ming Xiaoyang heard this, he smiled and said: "I know this place well! My family lives in Duke Wu's mansion, and I have been everywhere. If you have nothing to do, you can come to me, and I will take you to play!"
Zhao Anchen replied lightly: "Okay. Then have you been to Manchun Courtyard?"
Ming Xiaoyang almost choked again, thinking to himself: "Looking at the person who looks pure and clean, how can he say that he is Manchunyuan to someone I don't know very well? You really can't be fooled by appearances!"
Ming Xiaoyang replied: "I have never been there, if I did, I would be beaten to death by my mother!"
Zhao Anchen said in his heart: "I clearly remember that Aunt Yun and Mother also went there." He asked, "Why were you beaten to death?"
Ming Xiaoyang looked at the person in front of him and asked solemnly, and said with a smile: "Why didn't I get beaten to death when I went to the Fengyue Festival?"
"Oh, that's right." Zhao Anchen lowered his eyes, pretending to be calm, but felt cramped for a moment.
Seeing his expression, Ming Xiaoyang asked back, "Have you been there?"
Zhao Anchen: "No, I just heard someone mention it."
Ming Xiaoyang smiled charmingly: "Oh? I thought you..."
Zhao Anchen looked up at Ming Xiaoyang, and asked coldly, "What do you think?"
"Uh, no, then...do you want to go?" Ming Xiaoyang asked.
Zhao Anchen's expression froze, and he said, "I don't want to."
Ming Xiaoyang said: "I really want to go!"
Zhao Anchen stared at Ming Xiaoyang with wide eyes, and whispered angrily, "What?"
Ming Xiaoyang picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and said, "Huh? Why are you so angry? I heard that the Baixiangzui in Manchunyuan is brewed by itself. The fine nectar and jade liquid that come out, I really want to taste it."
Zhao Anchen breathed a sigh of relief, raised his wine glass, took a sip, and said softly, "I see."
Ming Xiaoyang poked his head slightly, and smelled Zhao Anchen: "The quiet sandalwood on your body smells very good, it has a familiar feeling, very reassuring, but I can't remember where I smelled it."
Zhao Anchen smiled slightly and remained silent.
Seeing this smile, Ming Xiaoyang suddenly felt like he was in a trance, and once he regained his senses, he hurriedly lowered his head and took another sip of wine, thinking: "Don't dream about him again tonight, I'm not normal... ...If anyone becomes Zhao Yi's wife in the future, will he still need to drink? He will live ten years longer than others!"
Ming Xiaoyang asked: "Where does your family live? Is it far away?"
Zhao Anchen: "It's not too far away, I have a chance to take you there."
Ming Xiaoyang smiled warmly: "Okay." He said in his heart: "This person is pretty good, his face is as cold as ice, but he is not so repulsive."
Ming Xiaoyang asked again: "You are so beautiful, who are your parents? Oh, my father is Wu Guogong, and my mother is Mrs. Yun."
Zhao Anchen said softly, "You... think I'm pretty?"
Ming Xiaoyang smiled embarrassedly, lowered his head slightly, turned the wine cup on the table lightly, and whispered: "Ah... um! It's pretty pretty."
Zhao Anchen said: "My father's surname is Zhao, who has no name, and my mother's surname is Mu. Few people know her."
"Ah? No name?" Ming Xiaoyang was a little surprised, and thought: "Is there really anything? There are people without a name?" I thought maybe I didn't want to say it, and it's not easy to ask deeply.Then he asked again: "How did you know me?"
Zhao Anchen said: "Is there anyone who doesn't know you?"
Ming Xiaoyang smiled proudly: "That's right, from childhood to adulthood, it's hard not to recognize me, hahaha!"
Zhao Anchen responded calmly: "En."
The two drank wine, you and I chatted slowly, very interestingly for a long time.
Ming Xiaoyang was very happy, there was really no one who could sit down and chat with him slowly, thinking about how he used to jump up and down all over the place, and never sat down and had a good chat with others.
After drinking a pot and wanted another pot, Zhao Anchen said, "Don't drink it, you are still young, so it is not suitable for you to drink so much wine."
Ming Xiaoyang thought: "That's fine, if I drink too much when I'm happy, and go back with a smell of alcohol, my parents will find out, and I'm going to die again!" He laughed and said, "How am I so young? I'm as tall as you , how small is it?"
Zhao Anchen said: "Well, I have grown up."
Ming Xiaoyang: "?"
Zhao Anchen chuckled lightly and said, "It's nothing."
Seeing this fleeting chuckle, Ming Xiaoyang stopped talking again.I don't know what I'm thinking.
Zhao Anchen said: "It's getting dark, let's go back."
Ming Xiaoyang: "Well, that's fine, you must come and play with me!"
Zhao Anchen said: "Okay."
The two went downstairs and left the Jufu Building. Zhao Anchen looked at Ming Xiaoyang who hadn't walked a few steps from behind, feeling mixed feelings of sadness and joy in his heart. The joy was that he had chatted with Ming Xiaoyang for a long time, but the sad thing was that he still hadn't talked with Ming Xiaoyang after so long. recognized...
Ming Xiaoyang suddenly turned his head to look at Zhao Anchen, Zhao Anchen was taken aback.
Ming Xiaoyang said: "Don't forget to come and find me!"
Zhao Anchen sighed, and said: "Understood, I will go, let's go!"
Ming Xiaoyang waved his hand and left.
Zhao Anchen returned to Prince Ning's Mansion, sat in front of the case, and drank tea slowly.After a while, I called the housekeeper and asked, "Where in Bianjing City is there a quiet and spacious house with a good view?"
The butler replied: "I heard that there is a house in the northern suburbs called Qingyuan, which is very elegant and spacious. The inner waterside garden is exquisite and elegant, and the layout is elegant. Because it is not in the bustling area of the capital, it is quiet and pleasant. It is said that it was originally Zhang Hanlin's house. Hanlin retired last year and went back to his hometown in Suzhou, so he entrusted the house to a commercial company to sell it, because the price is so high, it seems that there is no owner yet, the prince wants to see it?"
Zhao Anchen said: "Well, I'll take a look when I'm free. By the way, remove the palace mark from the carriage of Prince Ning's Palace, don't make it too public."
The steward said: "Yes, my lord."
☆、Second first meeting [-]
Two days later, Zhao Anchen went to the northern suburbs to see the Qing Garden, just as the housekeeper said, it was elegant, spacious, quiet and pleasant.
The northern suburb is secluded here, surrounded by mountains and rivers, seemingly inaccessible and far away from the hustle and bustle, but it is less than half an hour away from the bustling center of the capital by horseback.The scenery outside the garden is beautiful, and the inside of the garden is as quiet and beautiful as ink painting.
Zhao Anchen told the housekeeper to make a reservation here.The plaque hanging over the gate of this garden was written with the word "Qingyuan". Zhao Anchen stared at it for a moment, then told the housekeeper, "Let's call it 'Nuanyuan'."
Butler: "Yes."
The entrance to the garden is spacious, and the waterside pavilions and flowers are ingenious. Walking slowly into the garden, the tea room is simple, the study is elegant, and the courtyard is tidy.In the deepest part of the garden is a spacious and transparent sleeping residence, surrounded by famous flowers and plants, which are exquisitely maintained, and it is called Qingxiangju.
Zhao Anchen thoughtfully, smiled slightly, and said, "Changed to Chaomuju."
Butler: "Yes."
Zhao Anchen turned around with his hands behind his back, and took another look at the tea room and study room: "The tea room is called 'Fate Room', and the study room is called 'Sansheng Pavilion'."
Steward: "Yes. The old slave has written it down."
Zhao Anchen ordered the steward, saying: "I will go back to live in the palace for three days, after three days you have to tidy up the place, I come to live here, if anyone goes to Ningwang's mansion to look for the king, you will say that you don't know where the king has gone , send someone here to report to me.”
Butler: "Yes, my lord."
Ming Xiaoyang has not been out of the Duke of Wu's mansion since he and Zhao Anchen left for a few days.
Ming Jue asked Bai Heyun: "Mother, Yang Yang is sick? I've been stuck at home for a few days, isn't it right?"
Bai Heyun glanced at Ming Xiaoyang who was practicing in the yard, and said, "This idiot has never worked so hard before, it's a bit strange."
Ming Ruiran said optimistically, "Maybe it's because he's grown up and calmed down."
Ming Juedao was slightly surprised, and asked, "Grow up all of a sudden?"
The three of them looked at Ming Xiaoyang, who was struggling against the rock all day long and forgot to go out in the field every day, and felt quite suspicious.
While beating the stone, Ming Xiaoyang muttered in his heart: "Zhao Yi said he came to look for me. It's been so many days. I've been waiting at home, but I haven't seen him come to me. What a disgusting, dishonest guy! My lord It's not just you as a friend, I'm going out to play right now, don't wait!" Thinking of this, he suddenly stopped fighting, put on his robe, and left the mansion.
Bai Heyun chuckled: "Oh, I'm not sick."
Ming Xiaoyang was going to visit Kang Wang to play, but he didn't go far, and saw that the mansion under construction next to Wu Guogong's mansion was completed, and the lintel read "Ning Wang's Mansion".He thought to himself: "Which prince is King Ning? The fourth prince? It should not be Brother Chen. If Brother Chen leaves the palace, he will definitely come to me."
As I was walking, I heard a passer-by say: "There is a new music workshop called Qingyunfang in Guangqing Street. The music of the qin and the singing and dancing are superb. If you have time, you must go and enjoy it!" "Yes."
Ming Xiaoyang was depressed, so he happened to go to watch singing and dancing, listen to the piano, just to relax.
This Qingyunfang looks like an antique pavilion, and there are many guests, most of whom are literati.Ming Xiaoyang walked in, and before he could find a seat to sit down, he saw King Kang and King Qing were also watching the song and dance, and thought: "I was just looking for you to play, so I met you."
The two leisurely princes were very happy to see Ming Xiaoyang, and stretched out their hands to say hello: "Brother Ming! Here!"
Ming Xiaoyang sat down and looked down at the singing and dancing.Kang Wang said with a smile: "Brother Ming came late, there was a beautiful Persian dance just now, it was very exciting!"
King Qing asked Ming Xiaoyang: "I haven't seen you for several days, what did you play?"
Ming Xiaoyang said sadly: "It took a few days of work. By the way, let me ask you, who is King Ning?"
King Qing said with a smile: "I just heard that that is my sixth brother. He finally came out. We thought he couldn't come out. Haha, it just so happens that we plan to go and play with him later, do you want to go together?"
Kang Wangdao: "I guess the two of them won't get along well, my sixth brother is chilly, how about it? Come with us to Ning Wang's Mansion to refresh yourself later?"
Ming Xiaoyang was startled: "Who? The sixth prince?"
King Qing smiled and said, "Yes, who else is there if it's not him? Do you think the queen can release my fourth brother? He is even more hopeless than the sixth brother. He probably won't be able to get out in this lifetime."
Ming Xiaoyang got up and went downstairs without saying a word, and left Qingyunfang.
Kang Wang asked strangely: "What did he come for? He left so soon?"
King Qing was also very surprised: "Ming Xiaoyang is not quite right today, he was smiling all day long, when he just came here, his face was covered with dark clouds, and he hurried away with a face full of ashes?"
Kang Wang agreed: "Well, I found it too." Then he turned his head to look at the song and dance: "Come on, keep watching, ouch, beauty~"
King Qing said disdainfully: "Listening to the piano and watching the dance, cultivating sentiment, what beauty? Third brother, you are still in a mess."
Kang Wang said that the way is different and does not conspire with each other: "You are the same as the father, you don't know how to appreciate! After reading it today, I can draw two more pictures of beauties when I go back!" After speaking, he was contemptuously glanced at by King Qing.
Ming Xiaoyang rode a horse and ran to Prince Ning's mansion and knocked on the door.The butler came out and opened the door and asked, "Are you..."
Ming Xiaoyang pushed open the door and rushed in, and replied: "I am Ming Xiaoyang from Duke Wu's mansion." After entering the courtyard, he shouted inside: "Brother Chen! Brother Chen?"
When the butler heard that it belonged to Duke Wu's mansion, he didn't stop him, and of course he couldn't stop him, allowing him to break in.Answer: "The prince is not here."
Ming Xiaoyang turned around and asked, "Why aren't you here? Where did you go?"
The housekeeper said: "I don't know, my master, what's the matter? I'll tell you when the prince comes back."
Ming Xiaoyang asked again: "When did he leave the palace?"
Steward: "It's been five days."
Ming Xiaoyang: "Not here all this time?"
Butler: "Yes"
Ming Xiaoyang asked: "When will you come back?"
The housekeeper said: "This old slave doesn't know."
Ming Xiaoyang said helplessly: "When he comes back, you can tell someone to tell me at Duke Wu's mansion, I will come again!"
The butler nodded and said, "Yes, my lord."
Ming Xiaoyang left Prince Ning's mansion in displeasure, and returned to Duke Wu's mansion, not in the mood to play anymore.
He went straight to Ning Zhai and asked, "Mother, Brother Chen is King Ning? Our neighbor?"
Bai Heyun was startled, and thought: "What's the situation? Did you recognize it or didn't you recognize it?" He replied casually, "Ah, yes, I just heard about it."
Ming Xiaoyang asked very dissatisfied: "Then why didn't he come to me?"
Bai Heyun looked to the side, feeling a little guilty: "Maybe I'm busy." He thought: "It seems that I didn't recognize it. Why are these two kids running on me?"
Ming Xiaoyang muttered unhappily: "Oh", and went back to his room resentfully.
When King Kang and King Qing arrived at King Ning's mansion, they didn't see the sixth brother either.
King Kang asked King Qing: "Where can the sixth brother go? I heard from the steward that he will not live in Prince Ning's Mansion after leaving the palace. Could it be that he was suffocated in the palace and disappeared as soon as he came out?"
King Qing also felt strange: "Sixth brother is a bit weird sometimes, and sometimes he is a bit stubborn. Let him go. It's a good thing that sixth brother is out. We have another playmate, and we will look for him when he comes back!"
Kang Wang agreed, it was getting late, and the two went back to their homes.
North of Bianjing, Canglong Mountain.
Starting early in the morning, Ming Xiaoyang rode with King Kang and King Qing for an hour and a half, and arrived at Canglong Mountain.The scenery here is beautiful, the mountains are full of flowers, plants and trees, lush and green, and the crisp birdsong lingers in the mountains and forests.Canglong Mountain is the largest mountain near Bianjing, with a clear ridge, standing on a flat place below the mountain and looking at the mountains, it stretches endlessly.Climbing to the top of the mountain, you can see the beautiful scenery of the mountains and peaks, and there is a small river not far from the mountain, which is clear and trickling.
The three dismounted and went to the river to rest for a while, and one of them stopped to drink water.
Sitting by the river, King Qing asked, "What a wonderful place, have you ever been here?"
The two answered in unison: "No."
King Qing said with emotion: "I have only been here once. I just left the palace at that time, determined to travel all over the mountains and rivers of the Song Dynasty, and swim to my heart's content, so as to make up for my 16 years of depression. Unfortunately, my physical strength is not good enough. I haven’t swam anywhere so far. This Canglong Mountain is one of the few mountains and waters I’ve visited that left a deep impression on me, so I invite you to come and play.”
King Kang asked, "Are there any fairies in the mountains?"
Ming Xiaoyang laughed: "Hahaha, you are still a fairy, except for us three elders who don't even have personal cigarettes, birds don't shit, there are few people, mountains, forests, and wilderness are uninhabited!" Then he asked King Xiang Qing: "Zhao Qing, What's the fun here?"
King Qing replied: "It is true that there is no one around Canglong Mountain. The birds don't poop. The birds all over the mountain are very beautiful."
Ming Xiaoyang nodded and smiled, "Well, the mountain is full of bird droppings, what else?"
King Qing said: "There are also many rare and rare animals that we have never seen before. The most amazing thing here is that there is a small lake formed by clear springs in the hinterland of the mountain. There are ups and downs, and when the wind blows, there will be the sound of dragons singing, so it is named Canglong Mountain. I heard the day before yesterday that someone saw a unicorn here a long time ago. Wild game, let’s revisit the old place by the way, I guess you two have never been here before.”
Kang Wang opened his eyes: "Kirin? Is it real or not?"
King Qing: "I heard it is."
Ming Xiaoyang also urged with great interest: "I want to see the unicorn too, let's go into the mountain!" Then he took the horse and walked towards the foot of the mountain, carrying the bow and arrow on his back, putting the dagger and fire pocket on his waist, and put the horse on his back. They were tied to a tree at the foot of the mountain.
The three of them talked and laughed all the way up the mountain, and when they entered the forest, it really was a rich mountain, with a lot of pheasants, hares and small animals, and they hunted some after a while.
At noon, the unicorn hadn't been seen yet, but the small lake in the middle of the mountain was indeed seen. Ming Xiaoyang gave a ignorant wow, admiring that the trip was worthwhile, and said in his heart: "It's a good place, I will definitely take it with me in the future. Zhao Yilai..." Thinking of this, he felt unhappy: "I haven't come to see me for almost half a month, why do you miss him, and I don't know him well, and he has nothing but good looks."
At this time, a hungry voice suddenly came from Kang Wang's belly clearly. These two princes were really incompetent, and they didn't catch anything. They stared straight at Ming Xiaoyang's pile of spoils, Ming Xiaoyang Yang smiled and said, "Oh! Asking me to come and play has another meaning, haha, that's how it is."
The two princes went to collect some firewood and took out the fire folder, Ming Xiaoyang packed up the prey, and lit a fire for barbecue in a slightly flat place halfway up the mountain, very happy.The game was about to be cooked, and King Kang took out a few small bottles from his pocket, and said, "This is, salt, seasoning spices... come here, let me sprinkle it on, I can't live up to Brother Ming's good martial arts!" !"
"I can't tell, Zhao Che, besides being lustful, you are also quite delicate? Well, I'm sorry, let's try Lord Kang's handicraft!" Ming Xiaoyang was very happy.
"Am I lustful?" Kang Wang expressed doubts.
Ming Xiaoyang and Qing Wang were very surprised when they heard this question, Ming Xiaoyang teased Kang Wang: "Aren't you conscious?"
"I am a pure and good young man, please don't wrong me and ruin my reputation, brother Ming!" Kang Wang argued.
The venison was roasted by the fire, and the fragrance was overflowing. King Qing was drooling when he saw the barbecue, and hurriedly urged: "If you are humble, the meat will be burnt. Hurry up. Now leave the royal father's house." Eyelids are under my eyes, facing the countless pictures of spring palaces in your palace study, you still say that you are pure and pure? What are you talking about, you are a big girl? Hurry up, hurry up..."
Kang Wang carefully sprinkled it on the barbecue with a small bottle, and said, "Which one of you hasn't seen my masterpiece? Pretend to be innocent!"
Ming Xiaoyang blinked his eyes and asked: "You, a pure and clean girl, start pretending to be pure, okay?... Uh, it's ready to eat after baking!" Ming Xiaoyang picked up the dagger and sharpened branches, and cut them one by one. Insert it on the branch and hand it to the two crippled princes who can't even wield a knife.We had a great time chatting while eating.
"Let me tell you, the pictures of beauties I draw all have storylines, which are fascinating and hearty. They are not the same as other people's blatant and vulgar ones. I think I showed them to my sixth brother, but I still haven't returned them to me. Say I draw well! Don't look at the coldness of the sixth brother, and he is a person who knows elegance! Fifth brother, you are too hypocritical. After reading so many pictures of my beauties, you still keep mocking me for being lustful!" Kang Wang very proud.
King Qing replied: "Am I hypocritical? I'm tired of seeing it. You haven't gotten tired of drawing it, but you just find it incredible! Third brother, don't brag, how could sixth brother be interested in that!"
Kang Wang was very sure: "Of course, I like it very much. If you don't believe me, you can ask him! He is also a man, so he is naturally interested!"
Ming Xiaoyang's eyes lit up: "Have you seen King Ning?"
The two said in unison: "No."
King Qing said: "He has been holding back for 18 years, worse than the two of us. I don't know where he went to release him! The housekeeper of his palace said he hasn't returned yet!"
"Oh." Ming Xiaoyang responded softly.
King Qing asked Kang Wang curiously: "Third brother likes beautiful women so much, why has he been out of the palace for so long? Not only are there no princesses and side concubines in your mansion, but there is not even a girl who is sleeping in bed? Or is it hidden somewhere else?"
Kang Wang was asked this question, thought for a moment, and replied calmly: "I don't have any favorites. This king is delicate and expensive, so I can't just let it go!"
"Hahahahaha! I laughed so hard! You... ouch! Hahaha..." Ming Xiaoyang laughed loudly, holding up the barbecue and laughing forward and backward.
"What are you laughing at, I'm still a boy, what's so ridiculous?" King Kang looked at the two of them aggrievedly.
King Qing couldn't stop laughing, he sat on the ground and laughed continuously: "You? Hahaha! You are a boy?...Hahaha, my God, hahaha! Brother Ming is almost the same, are you?...Hahahaha! You You won't say that your first kiss is still there?"
"Is it strange?" Kang Wang was very innocent in his heart.
