Jiaochu

The green bamboo leaves are stacked one on top of another, the rustling sound is like the sound of nature, and the bamboo leaves turn like dexterous dragonflies.

The ground is covered with bamboo leaves that have been twisted down. When you step on them, you can still hear a slight sound. The unique fragrance of bamboo seems to be there or not. If you are far or close, you can't smell the fragrance if you smell it carefully. Unintentionally A breeze blew by, and the fragrance came to the door by itself, as cool as water.

Ye Lingxi walked towards the depths of the bamboo forest while admiring the bamboo. Lingdang suddenly raised his hand and pointed: "Princess, look, there is a person there."

Dressed in white clothes hidden among the green bamboos, looking at his back alone, he looks like an expert with an immortal spirit.

"The princess is here."

Ye Lingxi was noticed by the people in front of her before she even got close, as if she had a pair of eyes on the back of her head.

"Sir, do you like bamboo?" she came over and asked.

Xi Mu said: "Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum are known as the Four Gentlemen, Mei Ao, Orchid You, Bamboo Jian, and Ju Dan. Everyone in the world loves these four because of their noble character, but I think that the world loves them more in comparison with them."

Ye Lingxi felt a little cynical when hearing this, but it was also true. Some people always like to be arty and use flowers and plants to show off themselves, but they cannot learn the integrity and character they should have... After withdrawing her thoughts, she asked He said, "Sir said before that elder brother should not be overworked, but what about the future?"

Xi Mu said: "In the future, if you meditate and take care of yourself, you will be safe for 20 years."

Ye Lingxi's heart skipped a beat, "What about those born in their twenties..."

"The princess is worried about what will happen 20 years from now. Isn't it a bit unfounded?" Xi Mu said in a gentle tone.

Ye Lingxi thought to herself that she was really worrying too much. There was a major event at the moment and she couldn't tolerate any negligence. Thinking of this, she frowned unconsciously and her expression became tense, as if she was waiting for a powerful enemy. .

"The princess asked me before if I could accept me as my master. I think it will be soon." Xi Mu said.

Ye Lingxi was a little confused, wondering if experts all like to say half and half.

Xi Mu looked up at Zhu, as if he didn't intend to speak anymore.

Ye Lingxi said goodbye, walked a few steps, then stopped, walked back and said, "Can you not tell big brother what you just said?"

Ximu nodded.

……

When returning to Weiyang Palace, Ye Lingxi saw Xiao Anzi waiting outside the palace when she entered. She knew that her father was coming. After she raised her hand to straighten her bangs, she walked over full of energy.Xiao Anzi came over and whispered a few words, saying that Concubine Yu had been late to greet the queen two days ago, and Concubine Xiao had deducted two months' salary.

Is this killing a chicken to scare the monkeys? Ye Ling Xixin said.

Ye Lanchen and Concubine Lan were sitting on the couch by the window looking at paintings. The mountains, rocks, vegetation and trees painted on the scroll were completely natural. It was obvious at a glance that they were painted by everyone.

"What are the father and mother concubine looking at? Lingxi should also look at it."

She ran over in a hurry, her slightly chubby cheeks on both sides bounced slightly, as if they had lively and cute special effects. She ran over and saw a landscape painting. She admired it seriously for a while, and then asked, "Is this painted by my father? It's so beautiful." Eunuch De replied diligently: "This is what Mr. Shen dedicated to the emperor."

Ye Lingxi heard that the other party often talked about beautiful women, and thought that if he wanted to present a painting, he would probably find a picture of a shocking beauty. However, he did not expect that there was a heart that loved landscapes hidden under that unrestrained appearance. It was really a human being. Don't judge by appearance...

"Besides being good-looking, did Lingxi see anything else?" Ye Lanchen asked with a smile.

She looked at it carefully again and said, "The person who painted this picture must have liked drinking."

"Why do you see it?" Ye Lanchen was a little curious about how the little girl came up with this idea in her little head. Concubine Lan was also a little curious, and both of them focused on Ye Lingxi.She raised her little face proudly, as if "I am the smartest person in the world." "This person has to paint at night, so he must drink to wake up."

Hearing this, Ye Lanchen laughed heartily, and Concubine Lan also smiled.Ye Lanchen told his little girl that this was a painting by the great calligrapher and painter Lou Zhi, who lived in seclusion in Qingzhou.

Rumor has it that he was addicted to alcohol and would drink when he was painting. One of his most famous things was that he climbed over a wall in the middle of the night to steal wine from someone else's house. He fell asleep drunk and was discovered by the servants in the mansion the next day. If someone is kidnapped, they will be sent to the police.

The owner of the house recognized Lou Zhi and immediately asked the servants to let him go. He entertained him with fine wine and food. He got a painting from this great calligrapher and painter, loved him like a treasure, and held a grand banquet for him. Relatives and friends watched the painting, drank happily at the banquet, and got carried away for a while. They revealed that the great calligrapher and painter had climbed over the wall to steal wine in the middle of the night. Within two days, everyone in Qingzhou City knew about it.

The owner of the house was filled with regret and was afraid that the other party would come to settle accounts. After a few days, he did come to his door, but not to settle accounts, but to beg for a drink. The two chatted happily and became friends. friend.Whenever there is good wine, Lou Zhi must come, and he must drink until he is not drunk. Although the owner of the house is not bad at drinking, it is nothing compared to the former. He really can't stand such drinking, so he later asked the housekeeper to drink. The servant sent the wine directly.

"This Mr. Lou also has a nickname, called the Wine Spirit in the Painting." Eunuch De said with a smile.

Ye Lingxi imagined an image of a drunken, unkempt, unruly uncle, and then suddenly said with big bright eyes: "Father, my mother, concubine, Lingxi has learned to play the flute."

Ye Lanchen said oh~ and said he wanted to listen.

Ye Lingxi raised her hand, pressed and lifted it lightly with her fingers, and blew an air flute with a gentle breath.After playing in a decent manner for a while, she opened her five fingers and said she could play five pieces of music.

Ye Lanchen asked Eunuch De to deliver the Lantian jade flute tomorrow, and then asked the smiling little girl to go to dinner first.

Just after eating two mouthfuls of food in his room, Ye Lingxi heard something moving outside. He slipped to the window and took a look. It turned out that it was Yu Guiren who was here.

After a while, Yu Guiren left again.

After dinner, Ye Lingxi asked Lingdang to find Zhuer.Zhuer said that Concubine Yu was here to pay her respects to Concubine Lan, and complained to the emperor about her grievances, saying that Concubine Xiao had withheld her monthly salary for two months.

"What did the father say?" Ye Lingxi picked up another piece of pastry after dinner, which seemed a bit like eating melon.

Zhu'er replied: "The emperor asked Mr. Yu to go back first, so Mr. Yu went back first."

Ye Lingxi laughed, thinking that this noble lady was so ignorant that she chose to come and disturb her father's pleasure when they were alone with her mother and concubine. Even she, a little cotton-padded jacket, was taken out. It’s time to eat~
However, if this noble man dared to tell a snitch about Concubine Xiao, was he determined to seek refuge with her mother or concubine, or was he making some other calculation?

When she was about to get another piece of pastry, Zhu'er advised: "Princess, don't eat too much. Be careful of accumulating food, which will make it uncomfortable to sleep at night." Ye Lingxi withdrew her hand, and Zhu'er asked He He and Ling Ding to help her wash up, and then left. Got off.
