Dongdu Pavilion Case Record

Pu Qiming always thinks that the East Palace in February is the most beautiful.

Probably because both he and the crown prince happened to be born around the time of Grain Rain, the perennially dry Kyoto rarely had a rainy season of more than a month, and the rain was so dense that the vermilion palace walls were covered with a layer of water mist.The branches that have been bald all winter have sprouted new leaves and thrived in this abundant rain.Pu Qiming's hometown is in the south, and he feels that the four seasons in Kyoto are the only ones that remind him of his hometown.

Pu Qiming, who has just passed the weak crown year, is tall and tall, with an air of aloofness and a faint sharpness in his eyes.People in the world say that the accumulated stones are like jade, and the pine trees are like emerald green.He was born with a love of cleanliness, and he always liked white clothes. The princes of aristocratic families often wear white clothes with a sense of elegance, but Pu Qiming's clothes are as cold as ice, and they are more repellent than official clothes.

Except when he was with Prince Li Huan.

Although named Prince Taifu, Pu Qiming and Li Huan are more like friends and confidants.Like today, he stepped into the East Palace with "Wen Xin Diao Long", the spring rain was crisp and moist, Pu Qiming was holding an umbrella, and there was a faint smile on his face before he entered the door.Li Huan personally picked him up at the door, Pu Qiming put away the umbrella, and habitually sprinkled the rain, but unexpectedly, it just hit the corner of Li Huan's clothes and got wet.Just as Pu Qiming wanted to apologize, Li Huan had already laughed and said, "It's okay, let's learn from the wind of the valley, and use the shade to make rain. Thanks to Mr.'s sprinkling, it makes Gu feel like the rain of the valley."

Pu Qiming relaxed his eyebrows and smiled, his eyebrows were straight and straight, and there was a sense of radiance when he showed his face and smiled, which was very different from his usual handsomeness.He saw that Li Huan was wearing a turquoise uniform with his hair half covered. If it wasn't for the fine Hetian jade pendant on his waist, he would have looked like an elegant son of an aristocratic family.

"If His Majesty sees this, the crown prince has lost his royal manner." Although Pu Qiming said so, his attitude was very soft.

"That's to say, sir, let's be presumptuous." Li Huan blinked, showing a rare mischievous moment.

Pu Qiming originally wanted to be stern and look like a prince, but when he saw Li Huan like this, he couldn't hold back and laughed first.On the contrary, Li Huan corrected his sitting posture and said respectfully, "What are you talking about today, sir?"

"Cao Zihuan." Pu Qiming cleared his throat.

Li Huan said: "Three members of the Cao family, Meng De is majestic and powerful, and Zijian is brilliant in writing, but I think Zihuan is good at thinking and thinking, and he is not inferior to the two of them."

Pu Qiming stroked his palms and sighed: "I see the same thing. "Wen Xin Diao Long Cai Lue Pian" said, "Zi Jian is quick in thinking but talented, poetic and elegant; Zi Huan is careful but slow, so he does not compete with the first." Ming'. People in the world often lament the beauty and elegance of Zijian's "White Horse Chapter" and "Luo Shen Fu", but they don't know that Zihuan's "Classical Essays" is the essence of the debate."

Li Huan took a sip of tea, and suddenly said with emotion: "Zi Huan has such an outstanding younger brother, he must be in a very complicated mood." He looked at the continuous drizzle outside the window, and he didn't know where his thoughts fell.

Pu Qiming understood that in the past two years Li Shu fought everywhere, showing his sharpness, and there were many voices of support in the court.Although Li Huan is the eldest son, he is known for his literary talents and acts benevolently. Even the emperor would occasionally comment on his lack of imperial spirit.He said sternly: "Prince, don't worry. Da Zhou has always followed Confucianism and Taoism. His Highness's way is benevolent government, so don't bother yourself."

Li Huan smiled, but there was still a faint worry in the corner of his eyes: "Sir, Gu is not a person who is greedy for power and position. If it is not limited by his status, Gu would rather be a hermit in the mountains, and sit and discuss the Tao with Mr., wouldn't it be beautiful?"

"Your Highness, don't underestimate yourself. There are many emperors in ancient and modern times who follow the way of kingship, but few follow the way of benevolence. As a king, love for the people comes first. If Pu takes His Highness as a confidant, he will definitely assist His Highness for the rest of his life, and accomplish His Highness's way." Pu Qiming finished speaking. Kneel down.

Li Huan hurriedly supported him and said, "Sir, don't do this." His big and round eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist at the moment, and he said softly, "In this life, you must be your confidant, just like Boya meeting your son. Ji Kang met Ruan Ji, and he died without regret."

When Ziqi died, Boya broke the strings of the qin; when Ji Kang died early, Ruan Ji wept in poverty...

Thinking of these, Pu Qiming felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart.

"Bang" "bang" there was a light knock on the window.Pu Qiming and Li Huan looked towards the window lattice, and saw a young girl standing outside the window, who had nowhere to shelter from the rain, and was knocking on the window lattice with her hands.

"Aduo Li, why are you here?" Li Huan was surprised when he recognized the Uighur princess and his future princess.

"I was picking flowers nearby, and it's raining, so there's no place to shelter from the rain." The girl's hair was soaked with rain, and most of her silver-red palace attire was wet.

"Come in, don't catch a cold if you stand outside." Li Huan said kindly.

The girl entered the East Palace. This was the first time Pu Qiming saw the Uighur princess who came to the capital as a hostage.She has the appearance of a barbarian, with white complexion, light-colored eyes, high brow and nasal bones, completely different from Central Plains women.She came to the East Palace to shelter from the rain with an innocent attitude, and she didn't think about the issue of male and female defense.Pu Qiming wanted to remind him aloud, but when he saw the young girl holding a bouquet of wild flowers with a charming face, as if there was no more natural and purer woman than her in the world, Pu Qiming secretly laughed at himself as pedantic, so he didn't make a sound.

The girl looked at Pu Qiming and asked curiously, "Who are you?"

Pu Qiming made a salute and said, "I am the crown prince and Taifu."

"Oh, you are the prince's teacher!" The girl smiled like a spring flower, "Then this flower is for you." The girl handed over a large bouquet of blue-purple flowers.

Li Huan smiled and said, "It's Eryue Lan." He looked at the flowers and pondered for a while and said, "Sir, I cast myself to study the world, and I repay him with spring flowers in April. Although these flowers are not very expensive, they are better than others." In the natural beauty. Mr. Pu is peerless and magnificent, so I condescend to accept this flower."

Pu Qiming accepted it with a smile.

The girl's Chinese is still not very proficient, although she doesn't fully understand the meaning of Li Huan's words, she is still very happy to see Mr. Pu accepting it, and her smile is more gorgeous than spring flowers.

Li Huan ordered the palace servants to help the princess change clothes, while he had a hand-to-hand conversation with Pu Qiming.After the first round, Li Huan narrowly beat the half son, the two of them were so concentrated that they didn't realize that the sky had already cleared up.There was a burst of silver bell-like laughter, and Adori changed into a primrose-colored Confucian skirt palace attire, and his whole person was as fresh and bright as a sprouting willow branch.

"It's sunny!" The girl saw the sunshine outside, her brows and eyes frowned, "Then I can go back."

Li Huan smiled and said, "Okay, Gu will take you outside."

Pu Qiming stood in front of the window, watching the backs of Li Huan and Aduoli walk out of the East Palace little by little.After the rain, the sky cleared, and a few colorful lovesick birds flew by, singing gracefully and melodiously, and the birds chirped, begging for their friends.Pu Qiming smiled unconsciously as the sun shone on the handful of February orchids on the desk. He didn't tell Li Huan that today was his birthday.Pu Qiming lost his father since he was a child, and this bouquet of Er Yue Lan was the first birthday gift he received in his life.
