Chapter 37 Incense Burner as a guide

Yongliang is a curious country

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

Looking at the light back of the tourmaline disappearing by the door, Su Siman couldn't tell what it was like.

When his eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of the purple incense burner, Su Siman unconsciously smiled with a sweet smile on his lips. Maybe Liang Shaojun has really changed and no longer hates himself?!

Looking back on his expression at the moment he saw her appear at the door of Qin Yuelou, it was indeed a little strange. He had a bloodthirsty attack that day, and his performance at that time was obviously very concerned about her. She remembered that at the beginning, her marriage was designated by Liang Guo. Maybe Liang Shaojun had some relationship with the red apricot princess long before the time travel. Maybe Liang Shaojun would marry her by name?!

Su Siman blushed with his bold conjecture, and the happy fairy tale of the princess and the prince circled several times in her mind. Liang Shaojun's handsome and pale face came to her mind from time to time.

Although she doesn't deal with him much, she also knows that he has always been indifferent to people. He always looks indifferent and always seems to have some gestures of rejecting people thousands of miles away, and his mind is very deep. But after thinking about it, if the prince hadn't been interested in Princess Hongxing earlier, how would he marry her? However, there seems to be something wrong. If he was really interested in Princess Hongxing earlier, why didn't he attend on the day of marriage? And since I married her, I have been in a cold place. Don't you want to see her? And judging from Liang Shaojun's performance, he obviously likes Feng Wanxuan more. As for Princess Hongxing, he didn't look at it properly before! Su Siman thought about it and completely confused himself. It seems that it's not reasonable to think about it. Just stop thinking about it and let everything take its course.

It doesn't matter what happened in the past. The important thing is that in the future, as long as he is good to himself in the future, all kinds of cold treatment after marriage will be worth it.

Su Siman was thinking nonsense, and the tourmaline came back with spices.

"Princess, do you want to order now?" The tourmaline raised the exquisite gold-inlaid box in his hand, "This is a fine rosemary, which can refresh."

"Point it, I'll smell it."

The tourmaline quickly lifted the lid of the incense burner, poured some spices in and lit it. Soon, the fragrance filled the whole room. Bixi turned his head to look at his master and asked, "Princess, do you like this taste? If you don't like it, I'll change it another day.

Su Siman wrinkled his nose and smelled it vigorously: "The smell seems to be too strong... point... ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!" After two sneezes in a row, Su Siman's tears came out, obviously allergic to this fragrance. He awkwardly took the handkerchief handed by Bixi and couldn't help wiping his face.

"Well...the maidservant quickly poured out the incense." Bixi hurriedly held the incense burner and hurried out.

When the tourmaline emptied the incense burner and came back, he found that Su Siman was still sneezing in the room and the fragrance was still there, so he quickly put down the incense burner to open the window. The air flowed for a long time, and when the smell in the room finally dissipated, Su Siman finally stopped.

"Bixi, change a veil for me." Su Siman was powerless to order. As he said, he reached out and handed the silk in his hand to Bixi, with tears and runny nose.

"Okay." Tourmaline answered and quickly took another silk handkerchief and handed it to her.

"It's all slaves who are not good. Damn it!" Bixi knelt down reproachfully, with panic on his face.

"I don't blame you. Even I didn't expect to be allergic. Get up quickly." Su Siman wiped his eyes. I guess he sneezed too much and his voice was a little hoarse.

Finally recovered, Su Siman sat in a chair, stared at the exquisite small incense burner, and sighed, "Should I be unlucky, so I can only put it as a decoration?"

"How can it be! Let's go to change the gentle fragrance. The princess must smell it.

"Well, you can change the spices tomorrow. Let's not talk about this, Bixi. Let me ask you, where is Yongliang? Is it in the Western Regions?

"Well, it's very close to the Western Regions. It is close to the Turks in the north, the beam in the east, and the countries in the Western Regions in the west. Yongliang is a prosperous and rich city. It is the only way to pass between the Central Plains and the Western Regions. Merchants are like clouds, camels are like weaving, and people with people in the Central Plains, and everyone lives in harmony. It is a rare place among individuals. People love peace, businessmen and civilians are equal, and the scholars treat ordinary civilians generously, not as strict as the Central Plains. Bixi thought for a moment and answered seriously.

"So that's it." Su Siman nodded. No wonder the drawings and embedding techniques on the incense burner are very different from the Central Plains style.

I didn't expect that Yongliang was originally a city-state country, and I didn't expect Liang Guo to be so influential. Even Yongliang, who is located in the main transportation road between the Central Plains and the Western Regions, would pay tribute to it. However, if you think about it, it is normal for Yongliang to pay tribute to Liang. As a small city-state, it is not easy to maintain prosperity under such a geographical pattern. The geographical location is so important and so rich that who doesn't want to annex several surrounding countries? If Yongliang wants to gain a foothold, he must balance all kinds of interests. I'm afraid that he will not only pay tribute to Liang, but also the Western countries and Turks. Or, if it really doesn't work, you have to find a strong country as a backer.

"Yongliang's ruler must be a great and promising hero, Bixi, don't you think?" Su Siman turned his head and looked at the tourmaline with a trace of respect on his face.

Bixi was stunned, and a trace of embarrassment flashed on his face. "Maybe, I haven't been to Yongliang for many years, and now I don't know what it looks like. Is it's still the same as before."

"Listen to what you said, I'm very interested in you Yongliang. If there is a chance, I must go for a walk.

"Princess, don't joke. It's too early. It's time to go to bed."

"That's right, let's not talk about it--" Su Siman yawned, patted his lips gently, stood up, and said in a long voice, "I'm sleepy. By the way, Bixi, remember to change the spice tomorrow.

"I remember. The maidservant served the princess to change her clothes.

The tourmaline quickly got up and walked around the master to change her clothes, and quickly spread the quilt to serve her to rest. When I blew the lamp, I caught a glimpse of the incense burner and couldn't help but stay for a moment. She turned off the lights and quietly took the door. She sat on the cold ground in the corridor, leaned against the cool marble pillar, and quietly looked at the cold moon in the sky. Countless past vividly in my mind, my heart was surging for a while, and my face was full of tears, and I couldn't suppress myself.

On the second day, Su Siman didn't get up yet. Hearing the footsteps from far and near in the hazy, he couldn't help opening his eyes. At a glance, I found that it was a tourmaline, and my eyes were slightly red and swollen. It seemed that I didn't sleep well last night. A faint fatigue was written on my face, and I had no energy.

"What's wrong with the tourmaline?" Su Siman stood up, looked up and down curiously at her several times, and finally asked.

"I'm fine." Bixi lowered his head and rubbed the corners of his clothes and replied low.

"Is it okay? Why are your eyes as red as two little rabbits?

The tourmaline only lowered her head and rubbed the corners of her clothes and stopped answering.

Su Siman looked at her like this and knew that she didn't want to say much. He rolled his eyes and said, "I'm too lazy to care about you." He got out of bed and walked to the hanger. Before he picked up the clothes, the tourmaline had silently changed her clothes and served her to wash.

While busy, I heard Xiang'er quietly asking the maid at the door.

"Has the princess got up?"

"It's up."

"Go in and report it. Feng Liangdi is here to say good bye."

"Yes."

Then there was a rhythmic knock on the door. Su Siman heard it very well and didn't bother to let the maid in. He only asked Bixi to send a message to let Feng Wan Wan wait in the front hall first.

To be packed up, when he arrived at the front hall, after Feng Wanxuan's invitation, it was a daily greeting, and Su Siman dealt with it carelessly.

"Sister, I heard that Your Highness rewarded a Yongliang tribute incense burner yesterday. Can you let my sister see you?" Feng Wanquan pinched the plain silk and circled his fingers a few times. His face was full of smile, and his eyes seemed to be a little envious.

"My sister is well-informed." Su Siman blushed a little and took a sip of the tea on the table.

"Naturally, the East Palace is such a big place, and it's difficult to think about anything." Feng Wanwan covered his lips and smiled.

"It's okay to look at nature. Bixi, what are you still doing? Go and show the incense burner to Liangdi. Su Siman ordered casually.

Baoqin behind her came forward and said, "Princess, Sister Bixi just went out and said that she was taking spices."

"Well, then you can go to my room and bring the incense burner."

After a while, Baoqin carefully held the incense burner. Feng Wan turned forward and looked carefully and couldn't help admiring. Su Siman was quite proud, but he didn't show it on his face and was secretly happy.

After a long period of greeting, Feng Wanyuan left.

Su Siman saw that the weather outside was good, and the orange sunlight was lazily sprinkled everywhere. It was not too hot or too cold. He was warm and warm, so he went out for a walk. He walked to the pond in front of the storage pavilion. The small fish in the pool swam freely and happily, dragging their beautiful tails, which was very beautiful. Su Siman was in a good mood, so he ordered Baoqin to take some fish food, twisted it gently into the pool, and watched the little fish spit out small bubbles to eat food. After a while, the fish food in the small plate was fed. Su Siman handed the plate behind him and said, "Baoqin, go and fill it again."

No one answered behind him. Su Siman was slightly surprised. He turned around and saw that there was no shadow of Baoqin. Only Liang Shaojun, who was dressed in purple, stood three feet away from him, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly, as if there was a smile that had not yet unfolded. Standing in the orange sunlight, he seemed to be wrapped in charming light and shadow. His originally cold eyes were like the gentle morning light in the sky. At a glance, he was addicted to it. He seemed to suddenly fall from the sky, standing and looking at her from afar, his eyes were not really gentle in the magnificent morning glow.

Su Siman loosened his hand, and the plate fell to the ground with a bang and smashed it to pieces.
