Chapter 45 Lagerstroemia? Osmanthus?

Su Xiyue was thinking along the way. Su Lian seemed to have expected the emperor's announcement of his entry into the palace this time! Seeing the calmness on her face and the smug look in her eyes later, she knew that

Entering the palace this time will probably be extremely dangerous.

Su Xiyue sighed softly and ordered: "Liangchen, can you rub my shoulders for me? I read a book for a long time last night, and my shoulders are a little sore."

"Yes, miss."

As Liangchen's hand began to squeeze her shoulders, Su Xiyue closed her eyes and slowly opened them when she reached the palace gate.

As soon as I opened my eyes, the coldness in my eyes was like a white plum blossom in winter, standing proudly and blooming in the snow! Leng Yufan, I am really curious, what agreement did you and Su Lian reach? It actually allowed you to

You are willing to take such a big risk to frame me!

After entering the palace, a few people accompanied the emperor and the queen to walk around the imperial garden, admiring the flowers for a while, and then they arrived at the Fengwu Palace.

"The weather is nice today, but it's already the end of summer, and the lotus flowers in this pond are already defeated! However, the crape myrtles in July are blooming well! What do you think?"

"Back to the emperor, crape myrtle is known as a hundred-day red flower. It blooms beautifully and has a long flowering period. It is actually praised by ordinary people and literati who wrote poems!" It was Leng Yumei who answered.

The emperor smiled and said: "Miss Leng is quite knowledgeable about flowers and plants! I once heard the queen say that you have a special liking for peonies!"

When he said this, he glanced at the queen with some confusion. The queen smiled faintly, just looked at Leng Yumei and did not speak.

Su Xiyue lowered her head. There was a hint of prying in the emperor's words! It depends on whether this Miss Leng is smart. If the answer is not satisfactory, it may directly affect her.

It’s marriage!

"Back to the emperor, I have always thought that peonies are the queen of flowers, and they are graceful and luxurious, and can be compared with ordinary flowers. Moreover, when peonies bloom, they are more beautiful than others. Isn't that the reason why literati all over the world love them?"

The emperor listened without comment and looked at Su Xiyue, "Yue Yatou, please tell me, how do the crape myrtle flowers look today?"

"Back to the emperor, I think it's very good!" Su Xiyue scolded the emperor no less than a hundred times in her heart! In front of so many people, calling Leng Yumei Miss Leng, calling herself

Little girl Liuyue, didn’t you put yourself on the fire all of a sudden?

Sure enough, when he lowered his head, he could feel several lines of sight directed at him.

The queen smiled lightly and said: "Miss Su's answer is too simple, isn't it? Miss Su likes crape myrtle flowers?"

"Back to the empress, I do have a slight preference for crape myrtle flowers!"

Su Xiyue didn't see that King Rui's eyes changed slightly, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes! The emperor seemed to have glanced lightly in the direction of King Rui. "Girl Yue, please tell me,

Why do you prefer this crape myrtle flower?"

"Back to the emperor, my daughter accidentally read a folk legend about the origin of the crape myrtle flower in a book when she was young. A long time ago, there was a ferocious beast named Nian. It hurt countless people and animals, so the Ziwei star descended to earth.

Lock it in the mountains and only allow it to come out once a year. In order to supervise the year, Ziweixing turns into a crape myrtle flower and stays in the world, bringing peace and beauty to the world. Legend has it that if your home is surrounded by crape myrtle flowers, the crape myrtle will bloom.

The fairy will take care of you and give you a lifetime of happiness. I am just a weak woman, and I don’t dare to have too many extravagant hopes. I only hope that everyone in the house will be safe and healthy, and my remaining wishes are enough."

The emperor was thoughtful after hearing this, while the queen's eyes were slightly disturbed.

Leng Yumei smiled and said: "Miss Su is indeed well-read, but this legend is just a legend after all. It cannot be taken as true!"

Su Xiyue smiled and said, "That's what Miss Leng said." After finishing her words, she lowered her head and said nothing.

But the emperor seemed not to let her go, and said: "Yue'er, this sweet-scented osmanthus has grown buds, do you like sweet-scented osmanthus?"

"Back to the emperor, the sweet-scented osmanthus is clear enough to catch the dust, and thick enough to spread far and wide. It is a masterpiece. Especially in the mid-autumn season, the osmanthus flowers are in full bloom. When the night is quiet and round, drinking osmanthus wine will make you feel refreshed and refreshed.

.How can the world not love such a beautiful flower?"

"Okay! Well said!" The emperor was overjoyed, and the people sitting quietly below also had smiles on their faces. Who doesn't know that the emperor loves osmanthus the most. Now that Su Xiyue said this, how can the emperor be unhappy?

"I never thought that Yue Yatou would be so talented and could speak so well!" The queen said with a smile, "How about Yue Yatou compose a poem with the theme of Osmanthus fragrans?"

"Go back to your Majesty, you think too highly of me! My daughter just likes to read some gossips. In terms of poetry, she is far behind Miss Leng."

After hearing this, Leng Yumei looked slightly proud, but her words were extremely humble, "Miss Su is too modest! Miss Su was able to paint a painting of "Songs and Cranes Extend the Year" that day. How could her talent be so bad?

"

Su Xiyue just smiled faintly and did not answer.

The emperor smiled and said: "Girl Yue, she is naturally very good! What do you think, Prince?"

"Back to my father, I really admire Miss Su's talents."

Su Xiyue was startled, but she didn't dare to raise her head. What did the prince mean by this? Isn't this tantamount to slapping Leng Yumei in the face? She is the appointed princess! At this moment, Su Xiyue suddenly felt like she could see the sun through the clouds.

!I understand exactly where I offended Leng Yufan!

King Rui's eyes darkened and he said coldly: "Father, I heard that Miss Leng is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting! This alone is something that Miss Su cannot match, right?"

When Su Xiyue heard this, she immediately understood, "Your Majesty, compared to Miss Leng, I'm afraid I'm not even one ten thousandth. Especially Qin! I know nothing about it! I feel really embarrassed to say it."

"Haha!" Unexpectedly, the emperor laughed several times, "This is Girl Yue! Okay! Girl Yue doesn't like Qin?"

"Back to the emperor, my daughter only likes to listen to the piano, not caress it."

The emperor seemed to give King Rui a meaningful look, and then asked the prince of Wenchang, "Zifeng, you have been studying abroad for many years, and now that you are back, you should serve the country as soon as possible. As a younger generation, what do you think?

You are the best! Seeing that the martial arts test is coming, are you interested in participating?"

"Back to the Emperor, I am a humble minister but I am willing to share the Emperor's worries!"

"Okay! I really saw you right! This time, if you win the first place, I will definitely reward you heavily!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Listening to the conversation between the monarch and his minister, the Crown Prince of Wuchang on the side became a little uneasy, "Your Majesty, I also want to participate in this year's martial arts competition!"

"Oh? Yufan also wants to participate?" His eyes looked at the queen.

The queen's eyes flashed with blame, "You kid, don't get involved! You are a civil servant now, what kind of martial arts test are you taking?"

Leng Yufan wanted to say something more, but the queen stopped him and said, "Yufan, my aunt knows that you have been enlisting in the army, but now?" After saying that, he looked at the emperor with some embarrassment.

The emperor smiled softly, "It doesn't matter! You can go if you want! But if you lose then, don't come to the palace to cry to the queen!"

After hearing this, the queen also chuckled and said: "I don't know who Yufan is following. Your Majesty, I will take these three ladies to relax outside first. They are all still young, how can they sit in this palace?"

Where to live?”

After the queen and her entourage left, the Fengwu Palace suddenly became deserted!

Su Xiyue, who was following the queen, blinked slightly. Is she finally coming?

[Author's digression]: Thank you all for your continued support to Youyi! Thank you very much! Well, I would like to ask you weakly, can I call myself Yiyi? Is there anyone who can help me?
