Grandma Yuan heard Yuan Qingling's hint and refused Mr. Hongye's request on the grounds of being unwell. She also asked Man'er to tell Mr. Hongye that when her condition improved some other day, she would personally visit Mr. Hongye and thank him for saving his life.
kindness.
Man'er came out to report back, and Yuan Qingling said with great regret: "I'm really sorry. The old lady is ill and can't come out to see each other. Please don't blame me, sir."
Mr. Hongye asked with concern, "Is the old lady okay?
I know a little about the art of Qi Huang, why don't you go and take the old lady's pulse yourself?"
Yuan Qingling smiled and said: "Young Master has good intentions, but the old lady is a doctor herself, so there is no need to trouble the young master. It will not be too late to visit you again when the old lady recovers."
Mr. Hongye said: "This is the only way."
Mr. Hongye stood up, saluted and asked Yuan Qingling, "This is my first time to the Prince of Chu's Mansion. I heard that the Prince of Chu's Mansion has beautiful scenery. I wonder if I can be allowed to walk around?"
Yuan Qingling originally thought that he stood up to leave, but he actually asked to walk in the house. She was slightly startled and looked at him, wondering what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd, whether he was a guest who came to the door with a gift, and the two countries
So far, there has been no enmity. If she drives people out, she might be accused. After thinking about it for a while, she said: "Well, I will ask someone to take the young master around."
Little did he know that he looked at Yuan Qingling, "Can the Crown Princess accompany me?
Not only to fulfill my friendship as a landlord, but also to repay this favor for the old lady."
His voice was very soft. It would have been very comfortable to listen to such a voice, but Yuan Qingling felt very uncomfortable because his words were unobjectionable and forced, like kidnapping.
The landlord's friendship and favors cannot be refused.
Yuan Qing Ling didn't really want to accompany him, but since he forced himself to do this, it was even more inappropriate to hide. It was better to see what tricks he was playing.
"Okay, sir, please!"
Yuan Qingling stood up and said.
The two stepped out of the main hall, Man'er followed closely, staring at Mr. Hongye's back warily, with her hands on her waist, and a soft whip wrapped around her waist. She thought if she saw Mr. Hongye,
If you do something inappropriate, you must take action immediately.
The scenery of Prince Chu's Mansion is not actually very beautiful, but now in late autumn, the autumn wind has turned the entire courtyard yellow, and the servants sweeping the floor are just one person waving brooms, but there are always yellow leaves spread on the small stone paths and pavilions.
The scenery endowed by nature has a unique charm. Along the way, Mr. Hongye was full of praises. He even turned back to Yuan Qingling and said with a smile: "The vast area in Xianbei is barren. It is a pity that we cannot plant such good trees."
Yuan Qingling said calmly: "No matter how barren the land is, flowers can bloom. It only depends on whether the person who planted it has the intention. If you only care about others and despise yourself, you will naturally be barren. The same is true for people's hearts. Young Master said, isn't it?
?”
Young Master Hongye shook his head gently and glanced at Yuan Qingling thoughtfully, "I just sighed a few words casually, why would the Crown Princess criticize Sang and Huai like this?
I mean no harm."
"I don't mean any harm, I'm just trying to persuade the world."
Mr. Hongye smiled and said nothing.
The two of them continued to move forward, passing through the corridor and descending into the courtyard. When they got to the arch bridge, he stood still, holding his hands on the marble railings and looking down. Below was an artificial lake. The lotus flowers had withered. The clear water in the pond was full of fish, and he could see the fish in it.
The child swims around.
There is a rockery on the shore in the distance. The rockery diverts water from top to bottom, forming a small waterfall. This kind of scenery is actually artificial and deliberate. It is not exquisite. It can be done with a little money, but Mr. Hongye is very
I like it and keep looking at the water flowing down from the rockery.
His expression was solemn, and there seemed to be a hint of sadness on his handsome face. His red clothes rustled in the wind. He was not wearing a crown, and his black hair hung down his back and was tied with silk, which made him even more chic.
.
He looked at the rockery and suddenly smiled faintly at Yuan Qing Ling, "When I was a child, I always jumped off the rockery, dived into the lake, laughed and played with the fish, and never stopped enjoying it."
Yuan Qingling slowly walked over and looked at the rockery he was talking about. The water flowed into the lake, splashing white water foam. Because it was too far away to see whether the fish were playing there, she said calmly:
"Yeah?
Do Xianbei people also like to build rockeries and flowing water in their yards?"
"I grew up in Beitang."
Young Master Hongye turned around, with his back to the rockery, and faced Yuan Qingling. There seemed to be a piece of amber in his eyes, with a hint of blue in the maroon, "The first time I met the Crown Princess, it was at the palace banquet.
."
Yuan Qingling looked at him, "Yes, the first time we met was at the palace banquet."
It's really strange that he said these words. It doesn't seem to have any purpose, but it always makes people feel uncomfortable.
"Ever since that time, I always wanted to see the Crown Princess again, so I stayed in Beitang for a while and met the Crown Princess by chance. I'm afraid the Crown Princess won't remember it, right?"
Yuan Qingling frowned, "What do you want to say?"
Young Master Hongye stared at her with an unclear expression, "Don't be offended, Crown Princess. I don't have any bad thoughts towards the Crown Princess. It's just that the Crown Princess looks exactly like an old friend of mine, so I want to take a few more looks."
"If you want to see her, why don't you go directly to her?"
Yuan Qing Lingdao.
Mr. Hongye lowered his eyes and said softly: "This old friend of mine is no longer in this world. I will never see her again in this life."
Yuan Qing was startled and looked at him.
The sorrow and sadness flowing out of his eyes were so real, it didn't look like an act at all, especially the wetness in his eyes, as if tears were about to well up, and seeing his beautiful eyebrows dyed red, it really looked like
Looks like he's about to cry.
Yuan Qingling didn't know his intention in saying these words to her. This person seemed indifferent and elegant, but his eyes and actions could make people feel full of scheming. This was a particularly contradictory person. Yuan Qingling was sure that he would not do it.
It's a useless thing to do, let alone have time to chat with her here, there must be some intention.
Therefore, Yuan Qing Ling said: "I don't like to guess when talking. If you have anything, it's better to just say it directly."
"No really, I just really want to see you."
He still stared at Yuan Qingling, full of nostalgia.
"enough!"
Yuan Qing Ling was slightly stunned, "Master, please be careful. If you say this again, the Prince of Chu's Mansion will no longer welcome you."
"Don't be angry. If you don't like to hear it, I won't say it."
He was a little stunned, and slowly turned around, leaving behind his slender figure, "But you don't know, when I was in Beitang, I secretly visited you several times. I knew he was good to you, so I
Don't worry about going back. I thought at that time, if he treats you badly, whether you still remember me or not, I will take you away. I have sworn that I will never let you suffer the slightest grievance again in this life.
."
These words made Yuan Qingling's hair stand on end.
Do you remember him?
They had never known each other before, so how could they start talking about this?
