Xiaoxiang Water Cloud in the Red Chamber

Yuehua made Chunxian look at the door with a wink, and said with a smile: "Then there is no dragon god in the mountain, but there are mice digging holes. Someone dug four holes from four directions from about two miles away near the Taimiao. The tunnel leads directly to the Ancestral Temple. The tunnel is filled with explosives. It seems that it will lead to the bottom of the Ancestral Temple in a few days. The young master led people to catch those people by surprise and brought them back to the branch hall of Yulin Villa for interrogation. Only then did he know that they were King Zhongshun’s subordinates are playing tricks this time to prevent people from finding out about them. It’s just that those people don’t know why King Zhongshun wanted to blow up the Taimiao. The young master has already sent someone to investigate.”

Daiyu thought for a long time and asked: "Could it be that he wants to prove that the Shui family is unpopular and incurs the punishment of heaven?" Then she shook her head and said: "The royal family has been benevolent for generations, so it seems that this is not enough to shake the reputation of the royal family, but will arouse the royal family to unite. heart of."

Yuehua said: "The young master also has the same idea, saying that this year coincides with the disaster in the Huai River, maybe King Zhongshun will have other actions."

Daiyu's heart tightened, she said in surprise: "Then he will try his best to stop Brother Rong's disaster relief, isn't Brother Rong very dangerous."

Hongyan hurriedly said: "Miss, what are you worried about? The prince's ability is not something that ordinary people can handle, and there are so many guards and secret guards, nothing will happen. Otherwise, he is not worthy to be the emperor's confidant minister."

Daiyu let out a long sigh, her expression still depressed, she pressed her lips together for a while before muttering: "Hmph, if brother Rong doesn't protect himself well, I will ignore him if he gets hurt a little bit." It has been ripped into a crumpled shape.

Yuehua also said: "Let them deal with these matters, we have done enough. The young master said that our guess may not be right, we need to see the real news to make a conclusion."

Daiyu nodded and forced a smile.Hong Yan said: "Let's go to the old lady's place, maybe they have rested too."

Daiyu pursed her lips and said, "What's the fun? I really don't like to go and make fun of people like cats and dogs. What's the point!"

Chunxian and others shook their heads, and helped Daiyu go to Zhujin Pavilion.Sure enough, Mother Jia took everyone to Changcui Nunnery again. Both Xichun and Daiyu sighed, but Miaoyu didn't like to be disturbed the most.At the door, Miaoyu hurriedly took him in.Seeing the flourishing flowers and trees in the courtyard, Jia Mu smiled and said, "After all, I am a practitioner. I often repair it when I have nothing to do. It is more beautiful than other places." As she spoke, she came to the East Zen Hall.Miaoyu moved in, and Jia's mother said, "We all ate wine and meat. You have a Bodhisattva here, and you have washed away your sins. Let's sit here and bring your good tea. Let's have a cup and go."

After hearing this, Miaoyu went to make tea.Baoyu has only seen Miaoyu once, and he admires her very much, so he pays attention to how she acts.I saw Miaoyu personally holding a small tea tray filled with begonia-style carved lacquer filled with Jin Yunlong's birthday, and inside it was a small bell with a five-color cover from a kiln, holding it with Jia Mu.Jia Mu took it and asked what kind of water it was. Miao Yu said it was the rainwater of the old year.Mother Jia ate half a cup, then smiled and handed it to Grandma Liu and said, "Try this tea." Grandma Liu ate it all in one gulp, and said with a smile, "It's good, it's just lighter, and it's better to make it thicker." It's gone." Everyone laughed at Mother Jia.Then everyone is the same color official kiln to fill the white bowl.

Miaoyu pulled the skirts of Daiyu and Xichun, and they went out with him. Baoyu followed quietly, and Baochai followed after seeing him.Miaoyu let the two of them stay in the side room, Xichun sat on the couch, and Daiyu sat on Miaoyu's futon.Miaoyu fanned the water on the stove and made another pot of tea.Taking two exquisite cups to soak two, Daiyu saw the words "Jin Wang Kaizhen playing" on the cups, and said with a smile: "My sister's things are so elegant, it's good that you gave me the dragon and phoenix bracelet last time. "

Miaoyu smiled lightly: "Can you eat this water? Otherwise, I won't eat it."

Daiyu took a sip and said with a smile, "It must be the snow water on the plum blossoms."

Miaoyu nodded and smiled.Xichun tilted her head and smiled, "Huh, I can't eat it, but I want to eat it." Miaoyu nodded Xichun's forehead and sighed: "You are just being stupid like me, so sorry to see you, I don't care about you." .”

There was a burst of laughter outside, and Baoyu and Baochai walked in. Baoyu laughed and said, "It turns out that the fourth sister also has times when she is skinny. You are eating Tiji tea."

Miaoyu looked cold, and said coldly: "There is no tea for you here, it's all vulgar things, I don't dare to come into your eyes."

Baoyu salivated and said with a smile: "Good master, good sister, the so-called equality of the world and the law, let us have a taste."

Baochai's expression turned cold, she didn't understand why Daiyu was overpowering her in everything, what was good about her, everyone turned to her, and felt dissatisfied, so she picked up a green jade bucket on the table and wanted to pour it herself, she was surprised , this green jade bucket looks quite simple, but it is priceless.Taking a peek at Xichun Daiyu's teacups are also antiques, secretly wondering, how can this Miaoyu, a monk, have so many good things, let alone three such objects in his own home, even if he doesn't have one.

Miaoyu was arguing with Baoyu when she caught a glimpse of Baochai picking up the green jade bucket she usually ate tea with, her face immediately sank, as if covered with a layer of frost, and said coldly: "Miss Bao, I don't know if you've heard of it, 'take it without telling me. It’s a thief, girl Bao has such a big face to take it without warning in front of so many people, Miao Yu admires it!”

Everyone in the room was startled, and all looked at Baochai.Baochai's face turned completely red, although she heard that Miaoyu was weird, she didn't expect to be so disrespectful to herself, seeing Miaoyu's eyes were like blades, and it seemed to be mixed with a trace of hatred, her heart skipped a beat twice, and she put down the embarrassment Dongxi forced a smile and said, "We are all sisters, Master Miao's words don't make sense anymore."

Miaoyu sneered and said: "I don't have the good fortune to be sisters with the eldest lady of the imperial merchant Xue's family. I don't welcome you and Second Master Bao here. Please leave."

Baoyu stared at Miaoyu in surprise and said, "Master Miao, why?"

Miaoyu said coldly: "I'm not happy, Second Lord Bao is willing to accept this reason."

Baoyu has never been treated with such cold words, and even Daiyu has never been so direct and mean to herself, her heart is like pouring cold water, without a word, she just went out in a daze.Baochai gritted her teeth tightly, glared at Miaoyu and Dai and Xi unwillingly and resentfully, and said with a sneer, "What are you proud of!" Then she hurried out.

With a flick of the sleeve of Miaoyu's robe, the green jade bucket was swept to the ground, and it was instantly smashed to pieces. The broken jade on the ground shone coldly, like thousands of indifferent eyes.

It was rare for Daiyu to see Miaoyu look so excited, she was dazed for a while before she asked uneasy: "What's the matter, sister?"

Miaoyu saw that Dai and Xi were anxious, she knew they were frightened, so she calmed down and said calmly, "It's nothing, I just hate that girl surnamed Xue."

Daiyu saw that she was reluctant, she knew there was something inside, so she couldn't ask, and she couldn't sit any longer. After tea, she asked Xichun to come out.

Seeing that everyone had left, Miaoyu hurriedly ordered her mother-in-law to throw out the cups used by Jiamu, Grandma Liu, etc., and wiped the floor with water, especially the place where Baochai had stood before she was satisfied.

At this time, Lin Yifei was gnashing his teeth at the news sent by the dark guard.Sure enough, he underestimated King Zhongshun, and he also knew that the Shui family was not so easy to plan, and he actually brought his idea to the prince dispute 20 years ago.Hehe, no wonder he tried everything to get Shuiqing. He thought he was looking at the remnants of Prince Yizhong, but now he realized that he wanted to find a puppet.The current emperor has been the emperor for more than [-] years, but now some people want to say that his name is not right, which is too ridiculous.Yifei sneered in his heart, King Zhongshun never thought that Shuiqing already knew the truth.It is estimated that this incident will also deal a big blow to King Zhongshun, and the most worrying thing at this time is that the water will dissolve.

The next day, Grandma Liu went back happily loaded with gifts from Jia's family.In addition, after Baochai had had breakfast, he went to ask Jia Mu for greetings. When he returned to the garden and reached the parting point, Baochai called Daiyu and said, "Sister Lin, come with me. I have a word to ask you." Sanchun Baoyu and others Curiosity followed, Baochai frowned lightly, and then a slight smile slid across the corner of her mouth.

All the people, together with Baochai, came to Hengwu garden.After entering the room, Baochai sat down and said with a smile, "Kneel down, I'm going to interrogate you." Puzzled, Daiyu smiled and said, "You see, Baochai is crazy! What are you interrogating me for?"

Baochai sneered and said, "What a daughter! What a girl who doesn't leave her boudoir! What are you talking about? You just tell the truth."

Daiyu was puzzled, and she couldn't help feeling puzzled in her heart. She just said, "Why did I say anything? You're just trying to pinpoint my fault. If you tell me, I'll listen."

Baochai laughed and said, "You are still pretending to be a fool. What did you say about the drinking order yesterday? I don't know where it came from."

Sisters, you don't understand what I mean when you look at me and I look at you.

Daiyu thought about it, and Fang remembered that she had lost her point yesterday. She said a few words about "The Peony Pavilion" and "The Story of the West Chamber". Her Lin family didn't have those sour and fake rules, so she also read these books when she was young. Dad also said with a sneer, "Such beautiful rhetoric, but the moving rhetoric is only considered obscene by those who are hypocritical. If they are determined and upright, how can they only see the inappropriate parts? , I really want to cover it up." I laughed so hard at the time, but I also knew that outsiders were not allowed to read this book. Now I heard Baochai's blunt question and asked it face to face, so I can imagine what I thought.She smiled coldly and said: "Sister Bao, it's best to remember, why don't you remember that the old lady sang these few lines when the old lady had a show at home, so I will remember what I said. It was just a folded play, and I also I don’t know what I’m talking about, but the old lady’s promise is not wrong. If Sister Bao said something wrong, she must have read the full text and understood it before she knew it was wrong, so why don’t you ask Sister Bao what’s wrong?”

Baochai should have pinched Daiyu's fault, instead of being caught by Daiyu, she was speechless.

When all the sisters thought of what Daiyu said that day, they also felt unfamiliar. Xiangyun said quickly, "Sister Bao, I don't know the source of those words. Does Sister Bao know?"

Baochai knew that Xiangyun was simple and straightforward, but it just made him feel embarrassed, so he forced a smile and said, "I don't know the source, I just ask a question."

But Daiyu didn't want to let her go. Since she entered the garden, she didn't want to ignore Baochai's little tricks, so she sneered, "Sister Bao didn't know where it came from, so she came to ask me like a thief. Although you are older, what identity do you have to question me." The atmosphere froze for a moment.

Baoyu patted his forehead with a sudden smile, and proudly said: "I see, it's from "The Story of the West Chamber". It’s such a good article, I don’t even want to eat after reading it. Only Mingyan told me that the master and they are not allowed to read it, and I don’t know why, it’s a pity that such a good article was left in vain, I didn’t expect Sister Bao to be my bosom friend.”

The sisters all knew that the West Chamber and the like were banned books, so they immediately turned their eyes to Baochai, Baochai's face turned purple, no matter how smart she was, she didn't know how to justify herself, seeing Daiyu's cold eyes piercing her body like needles, Really fidgeting, I could only smile and said: "Young lady Lin has a sharp mouth, I just think it's wrong in vain, where have I read any banned books?"

The sisters knew that what she said was not true, but Baochai was always generous and she was a guest, so it was not easy to care about it, so Daiyu sneered: "Who is Miss Bao's name, but I don't know who that Lin girl is. Names have surnames, Miss Bao doesn’t need to give people another name, she is not qualified to come here as Miss Bao and has a relationship with me. In addition, Miss Bao should think clearly next time she wants to pinch someone wrong, otherwise it will not be worth the loss if she spares herself Who doesn't know that Miss Bao is generous, if you ask me in private, I won't be annoyed, but you ask in front of everyone, but it is not in line with Miss Bao's usual kindness. Could it be that I offended you, or the previous appearances were all fake. "

He said with a cold smile and walked away.Baochai sat blankly, hating Daiyu and annoyed Baoyu Xiangyun, but she didn't like to lose her temper. She just laughed and said, "Look, sister Lin is not crazy today. How can you make such a story?"

Xichun said with a sneer: "There are causes and effects, why doesn't Sister Bao know that." She also left with a smile.

Tanchun hurriedly changed the conversation here, and said with a smile, "Why didn't I see Sister Feng today."

Baochai hurriedly said, "Sister Qiao is caught in the wind and has a cold. Sister Feng is watching at home."

Xiangyun said: "It was fine yesterday, I'm afraid I caught a cold when I went to the garden."

Baochai said: "Let's go and have a look, if you are idle, you are idle."

Daiyu went back to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion angrily, sat in front of the window of the moon hole with her hands on her cheeks, her little face was puffed up, Hongyan poured a cup of tea to Daiyu, and said with a smile: "Young lady, don't be angry, can it be I still don't know what kind of girl Bao is. Now that her family is in ruins, she is afraid that others will underestimate her if she finds out, and then pays close attention to Jia's house. What?"

Daiyu pouted and said, "I'm not made of mud, I just can't be angry, especially after my brother won the first prize, she opposed me openly and secretly. She climbed Jia's mansion to climb by herself. What does it have to do with me? Why did I snatch her away?" , She treats me like a thorn in my side every day, playing some ridiculous tricks, it's annoying to death."

Chunxian smiled and said: "She doesn't think so. The girl wants to be clean but the tree wants to be quiet but the wind keeps blowing, and she doesn't necessarily have to be just because of that ridiculous sense of crisis. I can see clearly that the girl and her are born with each other. No, she just can't see a girl better than her."

Xueyan smiled and said: "That's not true, hum, the more she can't understand it, the better we are than her, and she will be mad at her!"

Chunxian saw Zijuan standing behind him silently, and said with a smile, "What is sister Zijuan thinking?"

Zijuan was startled, and laughed quickly: "No, I just thought Miss Bao was like this. It's better to be honest with Master Bao. If you see it, you've seen it. It's not as secretive as her."

Chunxian sneered: "Second Master Bao is so naive that he doesn't understand the power of it. What is honesty? Sister Zijuan defends him."

Zicuckoo's face was dark, she lowered her head and twisted the corner of her clothes in silence.
