Chapter 10 The Sorrow of Passerby

Strange things happen every year, and there are a lot of them this year

----------------

Su Siman also has a good impression of Feng Liangdi, who is praised by Xiang'er. Deep Palace is bored and he is a little ashamed of her. With the encouragement of Bixi, Su Siman decided to go to Qingyixuan to hook up and walk around.

From her Chuxiang Pavilion to Qingyixuan, she has to take a cup of tea. Now it's the beginning of August. Walking in the corridor, you can often smell the fragrance of osmanthus coming from nowhere. Su Siman is very happy.

Before reaching the end of the corridor, many people came out from the other end. The leader was a man in a dark robe. When the man saw Su Siman and his party, he bowed and held his fist to salute. Su Siman felt that he looked a little familiar and nodded slightly: "No gift." The man straightened up, looked up slightly, and greeted faintly, "How is the princess?"

As soon as he looked up, she saw clearly that it was General Li Yuan, who went to greet her marriage a few months ago. Su Siman was quite surprised to recognize him and asked, "General Liyuan, why are you here?"

"The last general was originally the guard of the East Palace, and now he is conducting daily inspections." Li Yuan answered simply and neatly.

"Oh." Su Siman's face was full of surprise. It was really not easy. He could still see a familiar person in the East Palace.

Speaking of this general Li Yuan, thanks to him on the way to marriage, otherwise Su Siman didn't know where he would be at this time, or whether he would live in this world. After several assassinations, he rescued him, otherwise he would have died.

And that night, someone put down all the eunuchs in her palace and the bodyguards outside the palace. The two thieves wanted to destroy her chastity. The mysterious man who rescued her at the critical moment was Li Yuan. If he hadn't appeared in time, the consequences would be really unpredictable.

Su Siman thought that it was her emperor who had given her secret guard to save her that night, so she remembered the other party's mysterious robe, but she didn't remember any other characteristics. Later, Li Yuan rescued him several times on the way to make friends. His figure was very familiar. Only then did Su Siman think that he was the person who saved him that night. When he asked him for testimony, he didn't expect that the usually cold-faced man blushed a little shyly.

After saying goodbye to Li Yuan, Su Siman and his party continued to go in the direction of Qing Yixuan. Soon, I arrived at an elegant courtyard. There was a little eunuch standing outside. When I saw Xiang smiling when I was a child, I seemed to be very familiar with Xianger.

Xiang'er came forward and said to the little eunuch, "Kozumizi, go inside and tell him that the princess is visiting."

"Okay, Sister Xiang'er." The little eunuch swrenched and seemed to have not seen the princess at all. He turned his head and ran away without giving a gift.

Su Siman has to sigh that fools are not noticed.

With little effort, the little eunuch came out, bowed his waist and arched his hand, and made a gesture of invitation, "Please inside the princess."

Su Siman first stepped into the entrance, and the little eunuch led the front with a low waist. When he entered, there was a very exquisitely trimmed flower pool, surrounded by an artificial pond. The water in the pond was clear and transparent, and the red fish used as an ornamental was swimming freely with its tail. Although this Qingyixuan is not as gorgeous as her Chuxiang Pavilion, it also has its own elegance and fun, which is a very popular place.

Stepping on the cobblestone path and bypassing a small piece of Xiangfei bamboo, before reaching the main hall, I heard the noise of laughter.

"Have you taken shelter? I'm coming."

"No peek! Come on, Your Highness, come and catch me--"

"Then you can hide it. I'm coming."

"Come on! Come on!" Then there was a string of silver bell-like laughter.

Su Siman stopped, looked at the little eunuch with some puzzlement, and asked him: What are you doing?

"I'm playing hide-and-seek." The little eunuch replied with some embannoy.

Su Siman couldn't help but be a little curious and accelerated his pace. A man in a lavender brocade robe was playing games with a group of women scattered around in the open open space in front of the main hall. Feng Wanwan, dressed in an orange skirt, hid behind the flower bed. Su Siman saw her, but Feng Wanwan did not see her. Su Siman couldn't help but be shocked by the situation in front of him and stayed on the spot. Who was the blindfolded man? How could he appear in Qing Yixuan and play hide-and-seek with Feng Wanwan and Qing Yixuan's maids of honor! Su Siman scratched her head and stood awkwardly. Didn't the little eunuch tell Feng Liangdi about her visit? Why didn't anyone pay attention to her?

Just when Su Siman was stunned, a maid found her. The maid looked at her stupidly for a few seconds and quickly ran to Feng Wan Wan like a frightened bird and whispered to her. Feng Wan Wan quickly looked at Su Siman and got up to salute quickly. He was a little pale. He seemed to be shocked to see Su Siman, as if he didn't know that she would come today.

"See the crown princess!"

With this pleasant sound full of trembling, the man in purple pulled off the blindfolded Sijuan, looked at Su Siman, and strode towards them.

"Why are you here?" The man's slightly low voice seemed to be a little unhappy.

Su Siman noticed that the man in purple had come to her side. When she saw the man's appearance, she was stunned for a moment and forgot to answer the other party's question.

Who is this Prince Liang Shaojun?! Although she has met him twice, she remembers his appearance clearly. Obviously, he is a very righteous Mengzhengtai. Why hasn't he seen him for more than half a month and become a handsome bitch in puberty?! So strange! Dare the prince develop late? However, even if he develops late, he can't grow so fast. He can't catch up with the bamboo! The last time I went to say good to the queen with him, I clearly remembered that he had only reached her shoulder, but now he is almost as tall as her! It's only been more than half a month! It's growing so fast!

Seeing that Su Siman's chin was so surprised that his chin was about to fall off, Liang Shaojun's face flashed with a trace of disgust. He handed the silk in his hand to a maid next to him and casually said, "I still have something else to do. Let's go first." After saying that, he turned around and strode away.

"Your Highness, will you come over for dinner tonight?" Feng Wan took a step forward, pulled his sleeve and asked in a delicate voice.

"No, there are still some things. I'm afraid I can't get rid of it." Liang Shaojun lowered his head and took her hand away without stopping.

Su Siman stared at the lavender figure and disappeared quickly, and suspicion suddenly appeared. Is he a plague? Why did he run away as soon as he saw himself? Although you are a little shabby, you are not too ugly to be scary. As a prince, will you be scared away by women? Looking back at Feng Wan Wan, who looked like a flower branch, Su Siman sighed in his heart. Alas, the difference between women is so big! I just looked at the two live versions of my little appearance. It's really bad. How can it be that she, a woman who has only secretly fallen in love and hasn't tasted love yet?

"It was my concubine who was rude just now. I hope you don't blame me." Feng Wan said pitifully, restrained his affectionate veins just now, and his face was touching.

Su Siman laughed twice, suppressed the awkwardness in her heart, and smashed her mouth and said, "What are you talking about? I shouldn't bother when Liangdi is playing with His Royal Highness the Prince. If I knew that His Royal Highness is here, I would not have visited so recklessly. Oh, it disturbs your interest, sin, sin."

"My sister's words are heavy. Come into the hall and don't just stand and talk. Feng Wanwan enthusiastically took Su Siman's arm and went to the front hall, "I don't know what my sister is doing when she comes to my Qingyixuan today?"

Listening to Feng Wan Wan's sister, Su Siman's scalp was a little numb, so she had to laugh twice, "I just have nothing to do. Come and see Liangdi."

As they spoke, the two entered the front hall. After sitting down, Feng Wan Wan ordered the maid of honor to serve tea, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Su Siman in person. She seemed to say inadvertently, "This is the black tea paid tribute from my sister's hometown, Chu. I think my sister is used to drinking this tea."

"Hey," Su Siman smiled so dryly that his mouth was about to twitch. "Liangdi is so thoughtful." Why does it sound like she is ridiculing the depressed princess of the State of Chu? I don't know if she will be wrong.

The maid poured a cup of tea for Feng Wanwan. Her hands were as white and slender as young bamboo shoots, against the blue and white cover tea cup with a white background. Qiansu gently held the cup lid in her hand, and her middle finger slightly raised her little finger to pinch out an orchid, flirting the fragrance of curling tea, and covering her face with long sleeves. When drinking tea, she was quite elegant and pleasing to the eyes. Su Siman became more and more ashamed. When she drank tea, she seemed to be not so particular. She was very bold and poured it into her stomach like drinking beer. My crown princess, in terms of dignified and elegant feelings, appearance and behavior, is really not as good as Feng Liangdi in front of her.

"Sister, it will be the reunion festival in a few days. I heard from my mother that a lantern festival will be held in the palace this year. The princesses of each palace can make lights, send them to the empress dowager to choose, select the outstanding ones, hang them on the gates of each palace, and there will be a heavy reward! Did your sister do it?" Feng Wanwan's eyebrows were flying when he said this, full of expectation and longing.

Su Siman was stunned and a little ignorant, "What kind of lighting party?"

"Huh, doesn't the State of Chu have this custom? I heard that this was a folk custom to put candles in the night lamp, tie it to a bamboo pole with a rope, or build a small lamp into a glyph or other shape, hanging high on the tile eaves or terrace. In the past, the reunion festival was just a banquet, but this time it was different. Maybe it was also to celebrate my sister's marriage to the Daliang harem. Feng Wan's big eyes flashed, revealing mischievous and cunning. This playful look was very naive and cute, which made Su Siman very useful.

It was only used for a while. Su Siman remembered that she didn't know about it at all. If Feng Wan Wan hadn't mentioned it, she hadn't received the letter yet. Is there anything lively in this palace without her share? It turned out that she was just a forgotten passer-by. Although she was a crown princess, she seemed to be transparent in this big Liang palace. Thinking of this, Su Siman was a little disappointed, but his face did not show anything, but smiled stupidly.
