During the Lantern Festival, there is another Lantern Festival in Beijing this year, so there is nothing new about it.

In previous years, she couldn't go out at night, and only when there were programs on Chang'an Avenue during the Yuan Dynasty and Mid-Autumn Festival, Wen Tingchun would be extra merciful and let her two older brothers take her out.

Therefore, whether there is something new or not, Wen Ning will join in the fun.

But this year, maybe because of the better excitement in Jiangnan, Wen Ning suddenly felt quite boring.

When Linglan asked her if she wanted to go out for a stroll, she shook her head disinterestedly.

But not going out, and having nothing else interesting to do, Wen Ning went to bed early.

During the Shangyuan Festival, the imperial court had another three days of rest, and the capital city where officials walked everywhere was more lively than New Year's Eve.The pharmacy has already been taken care of, and it will only open after the Lantern Festival, so there is no need for her to go again.

But Wen Ning knew that Pei You didn't like excitement, so he decided to stay at home for these three days.

She didn't want to stay in the same yard with him so much, so she simply changed into men's clothes, slipped out to find Duan Rushuang, and the two went to the pharmacy together.

"The imperial court rests for three days, don't you need to accompany the prince?" Duan Rushuang was extremely puzzled by her "free time" at this time.

"Why should I be with him?"

It's funny, it's just a fake couple, she won't act like some people, just thinking they are real couples.

Duan Rushuang looked at her expression, understood something at once, rolled her eyes, and said: "But I asked your second brother to go to Ci'en Temple tomorrow, and I asked him to go to Wanggui Mountain together the next day."

Wen Ning looked at Duan Rushuang in surprise, okay, these two really got together?
She didn't even have time to ask Wen Qi if she knew the girl in her previous life.

Moreover, there was no intention of inviting her to go with these words, one doesn't want a friend, the other doesn't want a sister, right?

Humph.

Wen Ning had no choice but to return to the Duke's Mansion.

Originally, he wanted to change back to his normal attire and go find his eldest brother and sister-in-law.Unexpectedly, the boy who delivered the post would reply before the time for burning incense, saying that both Wen Lan and He Luan had gone out of Beijing with Wen Tingchun and would not be back until two days later.

In the end she was left alone.

Probably because Linglan was afraid that she would be bored, she found some colorful feathers somewhere, and made a beautiful shuttlecock with a few copper plates as the base.

Wen Ning hadn't played for many years, and Wen Ning had a great time playing. After playing for an afternoon, she remembered all the fancy kicks that she was good at in her mind.

It's just that people are at home, so it is inevitable to run into Pei You.

The first time she was trimming the flowers and plants in the yard.Before, she thought Qinghui Hall was too deserted, so she added a lot of flowers and plants.After the Shangyuan period, spring will begin. If you take care of it properly, there will be flowers blooming everywhere in the yard.

She was very busy and wanted to enter the room to take off a coat, but when she looked up, she saw Pei You standing by the window of the study.

That window used to be open too, but it was usually closed in winter when it was cold.

He was wearing a dark blue brocade robe, which made his complexion extraordinarily fair, and his eyebrows and eyes looked particularly pale.

The four eyes met, and there was no wave in his eyes, he just reached out and closed the window.

The second time was when she and Linglan went to deliver snacks to the eldest princess.It's not for fulfilling the duties of the "Mrs. Shizi", but for admiring what she has done in the past. During the Lantern Festival, I want her to feel a little bit more in my heart.

As soon as I arrived at the Fuqu Courtyard, I bumped into Pei You coming out of it.

The two glanced at each other, retracted their eyes, and passed by.

The third time was the last day of the imperial court's rest. She kicked the shuttlecock in the yard. She probably remembered those fancy kicking methods, but she was not yet proficient. She accidentally kicked the shuttlecock into the air.

It just hit Pei You who brought Gu Fei into the yard.

Linglan didn't dare go to pick it up, so she went there by herself, bent down to pick up the shuttlecock on the ground, and left.

No salute, no apology.

Why is she saluting?It was he who broke the agreement first.

And why do you have to apologize?He tore up the He Li book for her, and never apologized to her.

At first Wen Ning was still angry, thinking that he was inexplicable and unreasonable, but she had disliked her very much before, and then they got along peacefully for more than a month, as if the two had already sworn to each other.

Even if she really had a past with Mr. Yi, what does it have to do with him?

It's just that she took the title of wife of his eldest son, and his paranoid possessiveness is causing trouble.

He will be angry whenever he is angry, but she will not spend all her time trying to coax him like she did before.

She has figured it out these days.

He lived in his study again, and he didn't bother her for dinner, and the two of them didn't even need to say hello when they met.

He'd better ignore her all the time, she couldn't wish for it! -
As the Lantern Festival passed, the weather began to gradually warm up.

On Luoyang Road, a humble pharmacy opened quietly.The layout of the pharmacy is fresh, focusing on herbs from the south of the Yangtze River, and there is a young doctor who has the temperament of a scholar from the south of the Yangtze River sitting behind the curtain.

Because there was no publicity, and the shop was a little bit off, the front of the gate was deserted for several days, and many people who lived nearby didn't know that there was actually a medicine shop here.

The shop owner didn't seem to be in a hurry, and he didn't intend to try to drum up popularity like other shops. The two young masters, and the young doctor, opened the door at [-]:[-] and closed at [-]:[-] every day. Not like a businessman.

The third quarter of Shenshi is also the time when all the subordinates of the imperial court are on duty.

After the Lantern Festival, there are new shops opening almost every day on Chang'an Avenue, so the traffic is particularly congested these days.

Gu Fei impetuously pulled the carriage back and forth, seeing another shop in front of him beating gongs, drums, singing and dancing, he hugged his chest and cursed secretly.

During the day, the gongs and drums are noisy, but in the afternoon, there will be another visit, and a shop will come for three days. This first month is impossible to pass!
Speaking of which, their wife's pharmacy also opened a while ago.

Hey, the quarrels between husband and wife here are all at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed. Their sons are better than others in everything, even quarrels with their wives are counted in "months".

His wife's pharmacy opened, he didn't say anything, he didn't even ask a question.

Gu Fei looked at Wanfangzhai not far ahead, and his heart skipped a beat.

The masters quarreled, and it was they, the servants, who suffered.The son was in a happy mood a while ago, so it would be nice to mention the difference, but these days, even his colleagues from the Ministry of Industry came to him to complain, asking if the son of his family had a firecracker at home on the Lantern Festival.

After counting, this fight has been going on for almost half a month, so it should... calm down?

Gu Fei took a deep breath, if I don't go to hell, whoever goes to hell, let's fight it out!
"My lord, I don't think the front can be cleared for a while." Gu Fei opened the curtain of the car and leaned half of his body, "Wanfangzhai is not far away, why don't you... go and buy two packs of snacks?"

Pei You was holding a scroll in his hand, and when Gu Fei pulled the curtain and entered, he was also looking at the gold inlaid plaque in front of him.

Gu Fei knew there was something going on at the first sight. After so long, Shizi reckoned that he was also looking for a step down.

I didn't want Pei You to look at it for a while, lowered his eyelashes lightly, and asked him, "Where is Yingyao?"

Gu Fei scratched his head, not understanding why he suddenly asked Yingyao, he counted the time in his heart silently, and replied: "The road to Shu is dangerous and difficult, probably our people... haven't arrived yet."

He frowned, and didn't answer, only looking back at the scroll.

This...can you still buy pastries?

Gu Fei was about to speak again when suddenly someone called him from under the car: "Gu Guard, it's such a coincidence that we bumped into each other here!"

Gu Fei turned around and got out of the carriage, frowning when he saw someone coming.

It was the person of the Fourth Highness again.

A while ago, he came to the engineering department almost every day to block him, but after the Lantern Festival, he didn't see him for some days.

Seeing that he was turning around, his back was slightly bent, and he presented a picture scroll with both hands, he said politely: "Your Highness has worked so hard to find a treasure painting, and I ask Guard Gu to pass it on for you."
-
"Are you sure, he will come up to see the painting after seeing it?"

In the private room of Jufeng Pavilion, the wooden window facing the street was wide open. Chu Heng stood in front of it with his hands behind his back, staring at the carriage not far away, while asking the servants beside him.

People outside the palace, Fan Liu didn't take the whisk, but still bent over habitually, and said in a shrill voice: "Your Highness, the prince has been looking for her for so long, as long as he looks at the portrait, whether he believes it or not, he will come up to her." Just take a look and go."

Chu Heng turned around, his slightly sinister eyes fell on the face of the woman in coarse clothes and no makeup behind her.

It took a lot of effort in the past few months, but I only found this one who was [-]% similar.

Fortunately, Xiaoya's portrait was originally taken when she was eight or nine years old. After these years, her appearance should have changed somewhat.

Although her eyebrows and eyes are not so similar, she is thin and thin, with a plain face and wearing a commoner dress, she looks more like the person in the painting than the Wen's daughter.

Seeing Chu Heng's expression, Fan Liu stepped forward and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, all backgrounds have been wiped out, and there will be no mistakes."

Chu Heng was still sizing up the woman with her head down: "Pei You is shrewd, you may not have guessed that this is just a counterfeit for us to win him over, just in case..."

"So His Royal Highness, who is a real dragon, must be blessed by God." Fan Liu approached Chu Heng, and said with a smile, "The man in the duke's mansion is having a temper tantrum with the prince for some reason."

"Our people can't get in Qinghui Hall, but the situation outside can be clearly seen. That person is probably arrogant because of his favor. This has been going on for half a month. Seeing that the prince can't even be polite, The prince has been annoyed recently."

Chu Heng raised his eyebrows, and Fan Liu continued: "Even if the son sees that this is a counterfeit, isn't the man in the house... not also a counterfeit? But this one of us is gentle and caring, understanding, and will not give any harm. The son of the world added to the block."

As Fan Liu said, he said to the woman, "Yinyin, show your Highness a smile."

The woman named "Yinyin" immediately showed her face and showed her teeth, her eyebrows and eyes were curved, and she really became lively.

Only then did Chu Heng's face look a little better.

He is a man, and of course he knows men best.

How can a savage shrew who has already married and eaten at home compare to the gentle and careless Xie Yuhua outside?

"Look, Your Highness." Fan Liu glanced out of the window, bowed and smiled, "The prince is here."
