Chapter 94 Cui Shu Yao
A pot of arrows was run out, and fine sweat beads oozed from Yuan Xiu's forehead. One picked blue and green picked a handful of water, and the other took a pa, carefully wiped it for her. Xue looked at the arrow target and found that each arrow could go deep into the target for three points. He nodded with satisfaction: "There is already some strength - from tomorrow, you can go out of the palace to practice."
"Madam, where shall we practice?" Yuan Xiu listened and ran to ask.
Xue stretched out his finger and flicked her forehead: "You, stand and ask Cai Lan to wipe your sweat for you, and carefully enter the cold!" Then he said, "First, go to Shenheyuan or Leyouyuan to play some hares, suede and so on to practice. The living things are not as good as arrow targets. They will only stay there waiting for you to do it. Now you have the right head, and there is still a lack of strength..."
As he spoke, a group of girls were coming outside the shooting range. Yuan Xiu looked up and saw that these people looked strange, so he said to Cai Lan, "Go and ask if the girl invited by the cherry banquet is lost?"
"A family, it's the Zheng girl!" Cai Lan agreed and only took a few steps, but recognized the leader and quickly turned around and whispered to Yuan Xiu. At this time, Yuan Xiu also saw it clearly. She turned her mind and smiled and said, "It's a little interesting. Let them come over."
Sure enough, Zheng Shu took several girls and made the girl walk in front of Yuan Xiu not far away. With a light and short body, he respectfully saluted: "I happened to meet your lord in the apricot blossom forest. I don't know your identity and mistook you for your daughter. If you are neglectful, please pardon me!"
"Those who don't know are not guilty, and I also walked at will at that time." Yuan Xiu motioned them to get up and looked at the girls behind her. These people were all bright and stared at her almost without blinking, and their eyes were full of interest.
Yuanxiu, as a golden branch and jade leaf, was born to live a gimmorious life. He was the least afraid to be noticed, but he didn't think so. Looking over it calmly, he saw a bright eyes and teeth inside, white in texture, plump, and far more beautiful than other people. Yuanxiu has always been very confident in appearance, and he didn't see her. Forbidden felt challenged. The girl wore a primrose yellow skirt with a single silk half arm, and a narrow sleeve short jacket embroidered with green bamboo leaves on a white background was exposed in the hole. She wore a lilac mixed red skirt, a three-inch wide black goose with a red gold hook around her waist, a string of red crystal wax beads on her neck, and a black hair comb made a double bun shape. On the bun, there is a pair of wild geese holding branches and falling beads, and the eyebrows are attached to the plum blossoms. The eyebrows are painted in a crescent red, with a silver vermilion smile, with a romantic attitude and a magnificent demeanor, like a half-open and half-containing compound peony, piled with fragrance and fragrance.
Seeing Yuanxiu staring at the girl, Zheng Shu quickly introduced, "Your lord, this is the third mother of the Cui family in Qinghe, whose name is Shu Yao."
"Is it Cui Fengwu's younger brother?" Yuan Xiu remembered Wei Huiduan's words, looked at her again and laughed, "It's really a little like his brother."
Cui Shuyan leaned generously: "Thank you for your praise!"
"How did you find the shooting range?" Yuan Xiu asked.
"When the noble master took Wei's Duanniang and Lu's Weiniang to the banquet, the minister happened to be in the banquet. She learned the identity of your master and recalled that the rudeness in the forest was very frightened. When the cherry banquet was about to end, the Queen's Royal Highness left everyone to have lunch in the palace and participated in the Cuju held in front of the Linde Hall in the afternoon. Everyone was in the Penglai Hall. At the banquet, the minister asked Her Royal Highness and learned that your lord was here, so she came to plead guilty. Zheng Shu said it reasonably. Yuan Xiu smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. Since you still have to play in the afternoon, why do you have to come so far?"
She looked at the palace people who did not guide the Penglai Hall in the crowd, but one of them seemed to have seen in the Bing Hall. Her eyes flashed and she looked meaningfully at Cui Shu Yao: "Shu Niang is too polite. I have to continue to practice and send several girls back to Penglai Hall on behalf of the palace. Go ahead."
"Yes!" Cai Lan answered, stopped Zheng Shu, who seemed to have something to say, and asked them to leave the shooting range.
Xue glanced at the girls and sneered, "This Zheng girl reacted very quickly!"
"There are only three sons under the fifth brother's knee, two of whom are from the Zhao family. Who doesn't know that the fifth sister-in-law is at peace with the Zhao family? She refuses to lift her son. Cao Cai's birth is not good. What's more, the vacancy for the third lady is that the fifth brother personally speaks to make people bear this time..." Yuan Xiu blinked her eyes and smiled. Hee said, "When the fifth brother is elegant, he is also the first person in Mengtang. It is also appropriate for the girls to make some fancy for him."
"Why did Jiu Niang send them away in a hurry?" Xue's strange way.
"They can only stay in the palace for such a day today, and the fifth brother will not come to the shooting range. There is no need to delay serious things here... They come here just to mention it when they report it, and there are other people." Yuan Xiu said naturally, "Since I have fulfilled my wish, I don't have time to accompany them slowly!"
She turned her eyes and suddenly said, "But how could Cui Shuyuo come here with Zheng Shu? She is Cui Fengwu's sister. If you have any idea, as long as Cui Fengwu mentions it a little, the seventh sister will definitely help her with all her strength. How can she come to appear in front of me? Madam, have you seen it, too? It is clear that they are the servants in the Seventh Sister's Hall!"
"Is that Princess Yuanxiu?" Zheng Shu and his party saw that Penglai Hall was in front of him, so they asked Cai Lan to turn back first. Seeing that they insisted on doing so, Zheng Shu and Cai Lan did not insist. They bowed their back to the shooting range. Seeing this, several people immediately began to discuss. A girl wearing a light green background embroidered under the moon under the moon, wearing six Xiangshui skirts her hands and smiled. He said, "Fortunately, you found a good excuse. Although we are not as lucky as Duan Niang and Wei Niang, at least we finally saw this Jin Zhiyuye and went to the palace in vain!"
"I just heard that Wei Bo's son entered Chang'an and fell infatuated with a girl I had only met once. At first, I thought she was a fair girl, but I didn't expect to hear that it was your master later!" Another girl also looked excited, "And Princess Yuanxiu, whom few people have seen in the palace!"
"Then He Lang has a little vision. I only think that the Yao Niang's brother and sister have occupied this Chang'an beauty. I didn't expect that there are such beauties among your lords - this nobleman hasn't come yet, right? I heard that she was born exactly like the Empress Dowager Wenhua of the previous dynasty. It's really beautiful!" A girl blinked, looked at Cui Shuyao and said with a smile, "Hey, Yao Niang, why don't you talk? Although your master is beautiful, you are not much inferior!"
Her words are quite sour, which is not surprising. Generally, she is the daughter of a famous family in Chang'an. The Cui family in Qinghe has a Cui Fengwu, which suppresses the limelight of many Langjun in Chang'an. Cui Shu Yao, the younger sister of his father and mother, is also a good appearance, which has fascinated the hearts of countless sons in Chang'an. Although these girls grew up with her since childhood, They are not bad friends with each other, but they have been gloomy when they stand beside her, and their hearts are a little smelly. At this moment, the girl seems to comfort each other, but in fact she has a sense of mockery.
Cui Shuyan glanced at her and said, "There are many beauties in three towns in Hebei. Then He Langjun is He's beloved son. What kind of beauty can't you get it as him? It's just that it's in Hebei, this is Chang'an, and what is your identity? He Langjun's heart promises to your lord, but you may not like him!"
The topic was so crooked. Zheng Shu took the lead in saying, "Not long ago, didn't you hear that someone saw He Lang and this nobleman ride out of the city to Leyouyuan for a tour? If your Lord has no intention of He Langjun, why do you go with him?
"This is not necessarily." Another person said, "Do you know - although this nobleman was raised by Empress Dowager Zhaoxian, after the death of Empress Dowager Zhaoxian, your master walked more with Princess Pingjin's mansion, which seemed to have the same hobbies as the former eldest princess... She bought a house in Judefang and raised a house that is said to look like a crown jade. The romantic little Langjun is said to be from a teaching workshop, and he is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting!"
One person sneered and said, "I have also heard about Judefang. It happens that one of my brothers has an acquaintance who also lives in Judefang. I once asked him about the situation of the house. I heard that it was only a two-entry house. In the past, a pair of Hu Shang and his son lived there. Later, the original owner of the house went to Quanzhou, and it happened that the lord took people to buy it. After that, it was listed under the name of Yu Wenrong's internal servant beside you. The person living there seemed to be Yu Wenrong's distant cousin - the forbidden man of the lord. He didn't live as much as my steward. How can there be such a thing? I think it's clear that the palace does not want your lord to descend to Hebei, and deliberately this plan has made He Langjun's mind!"
"No way? How can Yu Wenrong's cousin be qualified to ask your master to settle him in person? Besides, Langjun, who lives in that house, certainly lives in a simple life, but I heard that several of them are the guards around your master, and that Langjun is said to be elegant. He passes by outside the wall every day and can often hear the sound of the piano, which is unforgettable - besides, isn't he from a teaching workshop? This shows that he has not been in Chang'an for a day or two. Yu Wenrong has not taken care of this cousin for so long. He actually asked the Lord to take care of the residence for him in person. Your Lord arrived in July. Princess Changyang..." The speaker frowned when he saw Cui Shuyang and quickly stopped.
"Your lord is not a fool. What's more, it was rumored in the palace not long ago that he chose a son-in-law for the three noble lords of Dongping, Yuanxiu and Yunzhou. Chang'an Wangzu could not avoid it, which made the saints angry and severely punished Princess Pingjin for this. In this eye, how can you openly come forward to settle people in person? Or is it placed in such a simple place? Cui Shuyao thought for a moment and said leisurely, "As for the purpose of your move, it has nothing to do with us. This time we entered the palace obediently and just made an excuse to plead guilty, isn't it just to meet you up close? As for other things, why worry about that?"
"That's what I said..." The girls looked at each other and laughed, "There is still Cuju after lunch. Let's go back to Penglai Hall quickly!"
