Chapter 222 So Close
The day after the frost, Lin Huazhi got up in the morning and found that it was foggy outside. The dry and cold air mixed with the coolness of the night rushed into the room from outside the window. It was so cold that she couldn't help shrinking her neck and wrapped her tight clothes. Lin Huazhi shouted, "Xing'er."
After a while, I saw Xing'er enter the room with hot water.
Lin Huazhi changed into thick clothes and put her hand in hot water before taking a comfortable breath: "Has Lin Yuyang got up?" Today is the release day. In fact, since yesterday, Lin Yuyang has been a little restless. Even if he often says he doesn't care, he is still a little uneasy.
Xing'er picked up the wet handkerchief in the basin, unscrewed it and handed it to her, and smiled, "Lin Yuyang, I got up before dawn and walked around the room. When I just came over, I heard him reading poetry in the room."
Lin Huazhi laughed, wiped his face a few times, pulled his hair casually, and said, "Let's go and see him."
But Xing'er grabbed her, pointed to her dress, and said dissatisfiedly, "Are you going to dress like this today?"
Lin Huazhi is strange: "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?" She looked up and down. There was nothing wrong with this autumn skirt. It was made a few days ago. Today is the first time to wear it. However, when she looked up and saw Xing'er's look, Lin Huazhi understood it. She said, "This skirt is a little plain, but I'm not a famous lady. I'm too gorgeous at the tea party, but I lost my manners. I went to see it today, and I don't plan to climb dragons and phoenixes. This dress is quite good."
Xing'er stared at her and said dissatisfiedly, "How can this be? The eldest princess's tea party promotes several pairs of talented women every year. How can you show a little beauty in such a plain dress now? You know, it doesn't matter if you lose face, but you can't lose the face of this champion. After saying that, she ignored Lin Huazhi and went to the wardrobe to find a dress that was more suitable for her.
Lin Huazhi couldn't help laughing. She was not a beautiful woman and didn't want to find a talent, so her face was just an outsider. Besides, what does it mean that "it doesn't matter to lose your face, but you can't lose the face of this champion"? Is she not as good as Lin Yuyang now? This list has not been released yet. Who knows if Lin Yuyang will go to high school?
Lin Huazhi took care of Xinger lazily and did not dress up. When she went out, she went to Lin Yuyang's study.
When I walked to the courtyard, I saw the green lock open the courtyard door, and a strong wind came in.
"Yo, why are you here?" Lin Huazhi greeted him and said jokingly, "Qingling hasn't got up yet?" You came early."
Chunbai took a bite, looked at her around, frowned and said, "What are you dressed in?"
Lin Huazhi said, how can the tone of Chunbai be the same as that of Xing'er? Helplessly spread out his hands, Lin Huazhi said, "I know what you want to say. I'll dress up like this today. You don't have to say anything. I won't change it."
Chunbai snorted and scolded, " morality, it's not because of the young master's words that day, so you mind."
With no idea, Lin Huazhi immediately blushed. That day, Zhang Ziqing talked nonsense and said that she was not allowed to find a man at the eldest princess's tea party. Originally, she only thought that Zhang Ziqing was upset and didn't care about it. But when she didn't want to come out of Zhang's house, everyone knew it. Chunbai also joked that Zhang Ziqing was jealous.
Seeing Chunbai squeezing her again, Lin Huazhi also hummed and returned to the room before learning from Chunbai.
As soon as she entered the door, Xing'er waved to her proudly and said, "Sister Huazhi, I think this skirt is good."
Lin Huazhi turned his head and looked at it. The hanger was a water-red thousand-water skirt, and a large area of peony flowers were embroidered with embroidery thread on the skirt, which was really gorgeous and beautiful.
Lin Huazhi was stunned: "This... this is too gorgeous. No, really can't."
Chun Baiwei came in with her. As soon as she saw the dress, she clapped her hands and smiled, "This skirt is so beautiful, flower branches, you usually wear it too plainly. How beautiful this color is."
The three people have been quarreling in the room for a long time. No matter what Chunbai and Xing'er say, Lin Huazhi is stubborn and won't wear it.
In the end, Chunbai sighed helplessly: "Well, it's really stubborn. Just don't wear it. Xing'er, help her dress up well. If she doesn't wear a beautiful skirt, she can't even wear powder. After saying that, Chun Bai pressed the forest flower branch to the front of the dressing table.
After another half an hour, Lin Huazhi escaped from the clutches of Chunbai and Xing'er. Looking at her, Chunbai couldn't help nodding: "This dress is a bit like a lady's demeanor. It's really like a peach blossom, a willow, a willow, a better skin like snow, and a gel... It's a pity to wear it."
Lin Huazhi directly gave Chunbai a white eye as an answer.
At three o'clock, Chunbai dressed as a maid and accompanied Lin Huazhi in a carriage to Xuanhuaguan outside the city.
On the carriage, Chunbai handed a fur coat to Lin Huazhi: "Here, this is what the young master specially ordered. I'm afraid you will get sick."
Lin Huazhi saw that the hair was familiar. It was obviously the one in Zhang Ziqing's room when she went to Zhang's house last time. Touching the long snow-white hair covered with hair, Lin Huazhi's heart was warm.
Chunbai was close to her and whispered to her, "I told you, if you see Cui Yuan at the tea party, don't be impulsive."
Lin Huazhi was stunned. Is Cui Yuan also going to the tea party? She looked back at Chunbai with a puzzled face: "Does Cui Yuan also want to go? On such an occasion, even if I hate him, it is impossible to quarrel with him in front of the eldest princess.
Chunbai nodded quickly and agreed: "Yes, I know you are not such an impulsive person, but I still have to say that anyway, don't be impulsive later."
Lin Huazhi hummed and opened her mouth. She wanted to ask Chunbai if this was ordered by the old master, but after thinking about it, she still didn't ask.
When they arrived at Xuanhuaguan, Lin Huazhi handed over the famous post, and soon a Taoist boy came out to lead them in. First, I went to the Sanqing main hall to get incense and donate incense money. After cleaning my hands on the Qingxintai, I went to the apse. This is Lin Huazhi's second visit to Xuanhuaguan. The difference from the last time is that she came in openly this time, and this mood is naturally not the same.
Chunbai followed her, looked around without a trace, and praised, "It's really a royal Taoist temple. Look at this stone bridge. This rockery is different from other places. In terms of specifications, let alone ordinary Taoism, even those famous families may not be so rich.
Lin Huazhi laughed in a low voice: "If you become a Taoist nun, you will naturally see such wealth every day."
Chunbai stared at her: "I want to come in and be a Taoist nun, but what is my identity? Xuanhuaguan can't accept me.
Lin Huazhi couldn't help but be dumb. Chunbai and Jinhou also suffered a gray life when they were young. In order to live, Chunbai had to go to the workshop to be a musician. Even if he has now restored the civilian household registration, it is impossible to forget the bitter days in the workshop.
Lin Huazhi didn't want to make Chunbai sad, so she immediately opened the topic: "by the way, I know that there is a good place in Xuanhuaguan. There is a yard full of green bamboo. At this time, you can also pick bamboo dew and go back to make tea."
While talking, the boy led them to a side hall. The boy said, "Female Tanyue, please rest here. This Chaolu Hall has a sleeping couch, soft chairs, a dressing table, and a place to change clothes on the side, which is very convenient. If there is any order, just call the little ones.
Lin Huazhi returned the salute. When the boy was far away, she took Chunbai into the Chaolu Hall.
This Chaolu Hall is very large. There are not only many wing rooms behind the side hall, but also the inner hall specially set up by the eldest princess for the ladies and women. Lin Huazhi was not an important figure. No one was singing when she entered the hall, and naturally she did not attract the attention of others. When I entered it, several ladies had arrived, standing together and talking in twos and threes. Lin Huazhi didn't know her. She consciously stood aside. On the contrary, Chunbai was quite familiar with the ladies in Beijing. Standing behind her, she whispered to her, saying who was the young lady, who was good friends with whom, and who was famous for being careful.
Gradually, with nearly noon, there were more girls entering the Chaolu Hall. Lin Huazhi didn't know anyone, and no one knew her. She sat quietly in an inconspicuous corner and talked to Chunbai.
At this time, several Taoist aunts came in. The first person was Du Yinglian. These days, Du Yinglian is also very popular in Beijing. On the one hand, she has something to do with Li Cunyuan, and on the other hand, she has preached several scriptures in front of your majesty, which is deeply loved by your majesty.
Seeing Du Yinglian enter the Chaolu Hall, several ladies standing at the door hurriedly greeted her and said, "Jingyang Jushi is polite, but what does the eldest princess have?"
Du Yinglian held the dust in her hand, raised it gently, and raised her hand to salute: "Ruchen Taoist priest is still in the palace at this time, and he has important things to do, but he should look back soon. Everyone, Tan Yue is at your own.
Lin Huazhi looked at it from afar and couldn't help laughing when she saw that Du Yinglian, a Taoist nun, looked good-like.
After talking to those ladies for a while, Du Yinglian looked around. When she saw Lin Huazhi, her eyes couldn't help but light up and walked over quickly.
"Ah, why didn't you inform me when you came?" As soon as they met, Du Yinglian immediately broke her achievements. At this time, how could she be a little tall?
Lin Huazhi couldn't help laughing and didn't forget to salute: "Jingyang Jushi is polite."
Du Yinglian stared at her: "What? I haven't seen anyone for a few days. Have you changed your nature? Have you become knowledgeable and reasonable?"
"I'm so knowledgeable that I dare not say anything. I just feel that I'm not deep in the face of you." Lin Huazhi said more and more funny. If it hadn't been for someone on the side, she would have laughed happily.
Du Yinglian was originally with a straight face. Hearing what she said, she couldn't help laughing: "Lin Huazhi, you can't spit ivory out in your mouth. If I had known that you were so strong, I didn't have to worry about your neglect. Baba rushed to save the scene."
After listening to Du Yinglian's words, Lin Huazhi was a little moved. She wanted to guess that Du Yinglian would be uncomfortable on such an occasion.
Lin Huazhi said, "Although I don't know any of the young ladies here, don't worry, no one bullies me. I'm here, don't mention how quiet it is."
Du Yinglian pulled her to sit aside and asked, "by the way, how about Lin Yuyang on the list today?"
Lin Huazhi shook his head: "I went out early in the morning and didn't hear anything. I guess I won't know the release until after noon. Lin Yuyang is quite good, but since last night, he has been a little restless.
Du Yinglian said, "This is natural, and the champion is also under pressure."
Lin Huazhi seemed to imply something in Du Yinglian's words and couldn't help asking, "Listen to your words, do you know that Lin Yuyang must be in high school?"
Du Yinglian squeezed her lips and was about to open her mouth when a voice suddenly came in: "Excuse me, are you Miss Lin? Lin Yuyang, Mr. Lin's sister?"
Lin Huazhi looked up and didn't know when there was a young lady in front of her. She was about 15 years old. She was dressed in gorgeous clothes and charming. Before she asked, Du Yinglian had already worshipped: "I have seen Princess Ruolian, the princess is thousands of years old."
Ah, princess?
It is the first time that Lin Huazhi is so close to a princess.
