Yusheng smoke

Chapter 29 About Flowers

The moonlight is like water, quiet and bright. Just like a girl's white and moving neck.

Yu Shengyan has admired the moon many times, and most of them have Ji Chang sitting beside him.The moonlight is too much like jade, bright and clear, and it seems to have something more than jade.Ji Chang told him that most of them were sorrow and longing.

Because the moon is the most likely to resonate with the wanderer, the wanderer knows the pain of leaving home the most, and is thousands of miles away from his parents, wife, children, and friends. Everything is strange, except for the silver wheel on the top of his head.

Hearing that he was from a foreign country, Ji Chang couldn't help feeling sorry for him, so he ran over to accompany him in the middle of the night.In fact, there is no need to be like this. He is a person without father, mother, and home. He is free and unfettered all his life, so there is no such thing as the pain of leaving home.

The servants arranged the flowers, wine and snacks, and Gu Mozhi was full.Although Mrs. Ji guessed his identity, she couldn't resist her instinctive love for children as a woman, so she forced food into his mouth with a group of wives. The girls were reserved and shy, and they sat beside their mothers to watch Ji Chang secretly, not daring to near.Yu Shengyan and Ji Chang were far away from themselves, and they were not disturbed.

The servants carried the last big basket and put some things in front of Ji Chang's table and left. Ji Chang passed by the girls without changing his face, and came back with a plate from Mrs. Ji's place. He tore off the cover and put it on the basket. After taking out the contents of the basket and filling the plate, he covered the basket with satin cloth and sent the basket to Mrs. Ji's table.Gu Mozhi was not polite, he lifted the satin cloth all at once, "Huh?"

Only then did Yu Shengyan look into the plate. The plate contained large chestnuts. Although the color was black, the edges were still light. They should be tender chestnuts that had been left for a while before they were cooked.

Mrs. Ji has already muttered, "I said, it's too early, you pick the chestnuts before they are ripe, and forget about picking them. Young chestnuts should be eaten raw, sweet and crisp, and old chestnuts should be boiled." If you have some patience and wait another ten days and half a month, Mother will stew the hen with chestnuts for you..." She was still peeling chestnuts for Gu Mozhi as she muttered. "Come here, try it, I don't know where he got the early-ripening chestnuts, it smells strange..."

Ji Changquan pretended not to hear, and peeled a chestnut for Yu Shengyan.Yu Shengyan took it and put it in his mouth. The chestnut meat had an indescribably sweet taste, and the taste was okay. He lowered his voice and asked, "The capital city is relatively flat and doesn't produce chestnuts. I don't know where brother Xian got them from." of"

Ji Chang smiled and said in a low voice, "Such a good thing is of course rewarded by the king."

"Oh"

"Do you know Huaishan County"

Yu Shengyan doesn't know.

"Huaishan County is located in the north of the west. There are many hills, the scenery is not bad, and it is easy to grow these things. It's just that there is a drought this year, and the harvest is slightly reduced. Although the new king will be exempted from taxes, we still need to prepare some congratulatory gifts. Their county magistrates are diligent and honest, so they asked the people to pick a few baskets of big chestnuts as congratulatory gifts."

"The county magistrate is too straightforward, and he is not afraid of offending Long Yan." Yu Shengyan shook his head.

"Didn't you hear that our emperor is still a child?" Ji Chang shook his head, "It's a pity, the weather is hot and the journey is still a bit far away, and the white and tender chestnuts are getting dark."

Yu Shengyan squeezed a chestnut in his hand. For some reason, the shell of the chestnut was slippery. He licked it, and there was a strong sweet taste on the tip of his tongue. He knew it and smiled, "And then?"

"Then I came up with an idea for them, boil the chestnuts with honey, and then spread a layer of oil, it will be bright and sweet, how wonderful, the oil and honey are all given by me..."

Yu Shengyan covered his mouth and wanted to laugh, "You treacherous minister, I'm afraid you didn't fall in love with the king's chestnuts from the very beginning. You clearly know that the king doesn't like sweets."

"That's why I brought it back for you to taste," Ji Chang said with narrowed eyes, "Who made me an important minister? When the chestnuts are really ripe, I will send some to His Highness. By the way, you will leave tomorrow morning." Remember to take some back when the time comes, His Royal Highness seems to like it very much..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Gu Mozhidian, who was finally fed up, came back with his stomach full. Seeing the freshly peeled chestnuts in Yu Shengyan's hands, he opened his mouth and waited to be fed.Yu Shengyan stuffed chestnut meat into his mouth, and pulled him into his arms, "Your Highness, eat less, chestnuts are easy to bloat, and it's easy to eat too much..." Saying this in front of gentle people is insulting to gentleness, Yu Sheng Yan changed the topic, "Your Highness, don't be lazy, it will bloom in a while, don't miss it."

At the end of the first half of the month, Qinghui diffused light smoke layer by layer, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet, with only the sound of cicadas in the distance.

The epiphyllum under the moonlight gradually unfolds its white and slender petals like a bright moon.Epiphyllum is undoubtedly beautiful, not as rich as peony, not as strong as chrysanthemum, more ethereal than magnolia, and more seductive than lotus.

The beauty under the moon, the lonely beauty under the moonlight.

It's just that the so-called drunken man's intention is not to drink, and today's appreciation is not just flowers.

"The young lady of the Wang family wants to invite the young master to have a drink together." The girl in peach clothes with the long sleeves turned up first came over with a glass of sake.

The main event finally came.

Yu Shengyan pushed Ji Chang, who was still teasing Gu Mozhi, "Stop making trouble, the girl is here to toast, take it."

"My daughter respects Mr. Yu."

Not only Yu Shengyan, but also Ji Chang's expression became strange, "Respect him?"

"I heard that Mr. Yu hasn't married yet..."

Ji Chang is not well.

Yu Shengyan actually understood him quite well. His mother’s blind date method is actually similar to the emperor’s selection of concubines. All the girls who are qualified to be concubines are here. Choose whichever you like, it’s best to choose all... ...It's just that my concubine suddenly fell in love with another man, even if she might not be chosen, I would feel sour after all...

Before Yu Shengyan could get rid of the relationship, Ji Chang, as a matchmaker's mother, came here to draw red lines without any regrets for his son.The girls and mothers also joined in the fun, "I heard from Chang'er that you are about the same age as him, but it's true."

Yu Shengyan was helpless, "Really, it's just..."

"That's good, you've already reached the age of marrying a wife!" No matter what Yu Shengyan said, Mrs. Ji said, "The daughter of the Wang family is named Yan'er. She comes from a wealthy family and has a good appearance... Proficient in everything..."

The girl looked at him with a smile.

Ji Chang pulled Yu Shengyan over and whispered, "My dear brother, this girl is not good. I saw her familiar just now. She is the daughter of the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment. I don't know if she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she must be good at knives, guns and sticks." Proficient... before the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment called me to drink for my brother, he said that his little girl was ruthless, and some prisoners who were stubborn would ask her to come out!"

Yu Shengyan was suspicious, "Is it too exaggerated?"

Ji Chang said, "Hey, why are you so disobedient? Isn't this girl ugly? Is she not disabled? The status of a dignified minister's daughter is not low, right? How come no one wants her?"

Yu Shengyan suddenly realized, no wonder Mrs. Ji was so active in being a matchmaker. It turned out that her idea was to marry off the most evil person in her son's harem, and the rest would basically be good wives and mothers.

He just wanted to thank Ji Chang, when he looked up, he saw the girl from the Wang family glaring at Ji Chang with a gloomy expression, while her mother was holding her hand worriedly.

Yu Shengyan smiled, and said in a soft voice, "Thank you for your kindness, girl, but I have made a calculation since I was a child, and my father ordered me not to marry a wife in this life."

"Liars talk nonsense, my son is a scholar, how can you believe such words?" Miss Wang didn't intend to give up on Yu Shengyan, she hesitated for a moment, and bet on her reserve as a girl, "Young master might as well marry a young girl for a try. …”

Yu Shengyan felt troubled in his heart, thinking that this girl is still very difficult!If I agree, I will have a sad life in the future, and what is even more frightening is that if she finds out that my body is a dead thing, I will smash myself and burn myself, and I will ask the Taoist priest to put me in the gourd...... That's how the strange tales I bought for Zhao San were written in this way.If she disagrees, other girls will talk about this kind of thing. Not only will she be embarrassed, but she will also be embarrassed!Her father is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, right?

He thought about it carefully, and his face was full of anger, "The person who is divining for me is my grandfather! The old man is a spirit in the sky, so don't eat it!"

Ji Chang nearly choked himself to death with a sip of water.

Miss Wang's face was a little uneasy, and she said, "Why don't you write down the horoscope of your birthday, my little girl, ask someone to help you test it again? If there is a marriage..."

"What is marriage?" Gu Mozhi pinched a large epiphyllum and ran back to give it to Yu Shengyan, "This is the biggest flower, shall I give it to you?"

Ji Chang sighed for pity, "What a beauty under the moon, I insisted on letting the palace... Mo Zhi you were torn as a dog's tail grass, alas, pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, Mo Zhi, otherwise..."

"He's still young, why are you telling him this?" Yu Shengyan interrupted Ji Chang, took the flowers, and explained to Gu Mozhi, "Marriage is fate, and it's mainly for getting married." Gu Mozhi continued to ask, " What is marriage?"
