The Seven Heroes and Five Righteousness of Crossing

Ever since Yuan Cuixiao made such a fuss in the Juzhang River, she has always been in people's minds.It is neither Ding Zhaohui nor Jin Mudan who cares about her, but Jin Mudan's close maid—Jiahui.

Jiahui was sold into the Jin Mansion by her family at the age of six, and she grew up with Mudan as a companion. They were named master and servant, but they were actually like sisters.For her own girl, besides being loyal, the little girl also has a few idiots.In his heart, he has long regarded Ding Er, who is a childhood sweetheart with Peony, as a son-in-law.It was originally a good relationship created by heaven and earth, but now there are side effects, wouldn't it be embarrassing.

She thought to herself: In terms of appearance, Yuan Cuixiao is as beautiful as a fairy; in terms of status, she is the righteous daughter of a prince;The most exasperating thing is that every time she meets Ding family officials, she seems to lose her soul.Look at the way she stared at the second official in the cabin a few days ago, tsk tsk, it's not like a greedy cat seeing fresh fish.well!The enemy is in front of me, but the little lady is still like a person with nothing to do, and she has always been at odds with her elder sister, and if she is allowed to stalk her like this, the son-in-law who got her will slip into someone else's bowl, what will happen? Is good?

Thinking of this part, girl Jiahui felt like she was sitting on pins and needles: she had to figure out a way to help her girl... After thinking about it, after thinking about it, she finally came up with an idea: that Yuan Cuixiao's eye-catching is all due to her out-of-the-box behavior and bold style .The little lady Peony suffers because of her temperament, she is too reserved.Hey, the girl treats me very dearly, if there is something she can't say or do, why don't I be the lead for her.Thinking of this, he quietly went back to the room, pretending to tidy up the embroidered pieces, and hid a brocade handkerchief embroidered by Peony himself, and while she was taking a nap at noon, secretly wrote two sentences on the handkerchief, "Guan Guan Sui." Dove, on the island of the river", folded a few stacks, stuffed into the bottom of the sleeve.Just wait until you meet Ding Cheng, who doesn't know a single word, and entrust him to pass it on to other officials, and the matter will be completed.

In the afternoon of this day, Chunliu, who had gone back to Han River to visit relatives before the festival, returned from vacation.They haven't seen each other for many days, and now they are together again, and everyone feels happy.Yuan Cuixiao was very lively, busy people went to the prefect's mansion, and invited Jin Mudan to come and gather.

At that time, Jiahui had just packed the handkerchief, and before delivering it, her little lady had already been invited to go to the county prince's mansion, she hurriedly helped her change clothes, freshen up, and get ready to go out, so she had to put aside her thoughts of being a matchmaker for the time being. up.

Yuan Cuixiao was waiting under the pomegranate tree in the atrium. As soon as she saw Jin Mudan stepping into the hanging flower gate, she called out "Sister Jin" in a loud voice, and walked forward with a smile on her face.After seeing each other, Jin Mudan held her affectionately and said, "Why is my sister so happy today? Why is she so anxious to invite me here?"

Yuan Cuixiao replied: "It's nothing. The autumn camellia in the back garden is blooming very well. When I went back to the prefect's mansion, I saw some vases in my sister's room. I guess my sister likes this flower, so I invite you to come with me." Come and enjoy it."

Jin Mudan hurriedly said: "My sister has a heart."

Yuan Cuixiao turned around and called Chunliu, "Come here, come and meet my new sewing master."

Chunliu stepped forward, Fu Yifu said, "Chunliu has met the young lady of the Jin family."

Jin Mudan said a little shyly: "Don't listen to your little lady's nonsense, I can only embroider a few patterns, so I can't be a master."

Everyone chatted and laughed in the courtyard again, took the scissors and cut flowers, and went to the back garden together.When we arrived near the lotus pond, it happened to be at the head of the big stall of Dianshanfang, and we were instructing several help cooks to go down to the pond to dig lotus roots.Chunliu saw that the stone path in the middle was quite muddy, so she asked the girls to take a detour through the east path.

After walking for a while, Yuan Cuixiao inadvertently glanced at the bamboo forest beside him, and suddenly felt a gray shadow flashing there, and a trace of fear appeared in his heart for no reason.So after walking a few steps, he looked back, but he didn't see anything.

Jin Mudan looked puzzled: "Sister Yuan, what are you doing in three steps and one turn around?"

Yuan Cuixiao turned her face and said, "I always feel like there are a pair of eyes behind me, staring at us all the time. Sister Jin, what do you think?"

Jin Mudan was timid, she was startled by what she said, she looked back, even though she didn't find any movement, she felt scared, stepped forward to hold her hand tightly and said: "Sister, let's go faster."

Yuan Cuixiao nodded in agreement.

In the concavity between the osmanthus forest and Meiling, a half garden of camellias is planted.It is golden autumn, and they are competing to open up, complementing each other with the surrounding tall ginkgo trees. High yellow and low red, rich and charming, endowed with picturesque scenery.

Yuan Cuixiao and Jin Mudan sat on the swing, gossiping and watching Xia Chan and the others pinch flowers.

Golden Peony gestured slenderly, pointed to a cluster of blooming black tea in front of it and said with a smile: "The color of the 'Yuedan' plants over there is really good, gorgeous but not vulgar, charming but not bewitching."

Yuan Cuixiao looked in the direction of her finger, and saw a field of red and emerald greens, which were in full bloom, but couldn't tell the species, so she asked, "I can only classify the camellias here as single petals or double petals. What is the 'Yue Dan' that sister Kim is talking about?"

"Here." Jin Mudan pouted towards Jiahui, who was concentrating on pinching flowers, "It's in the flower socket that Jiahui is holding."

Yuan Cuixiao moved her eyes, only to see that 'Yue Dan' with double petals, the shape of the flower is five or six points similar to peony, she stroked her palm and said: "It really looks good. This Jiahui is really caring. She likes what my sister likes. You know it like the palm of your hand."

"Have we been together for a long time?" Jin Mudan looked back at her and asked coldly, "Sister Yuan, do you know the second brother of the Ding family?"

Yuan Cuixiao's heart seemed to be pinched by someone, she was a little startled, and lied: "I suffered a head injury before, and I can't remember many things clearly. For Ding Erxia, I really feel familiar, and seem to be familiar with him." When I was cultivating Taoism in Luofu Mountain, one of the several Taoist brothers I met was somewhat similar."

Jin Mudan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Second Brother Ding has never been to Lingnan, I'm afraid my sister has misunderstood the person. But it seems that you two share the same fate. He also suffered from a serious illness not long ago, and he forgot Lots of things."

Yuan Cuixiao looked ahead and said nothing, thinking: But he still remembers you, but he has already forgotten me...

The sky was getting dark, and everyone was waiting to turn around, and saw Zhao Jue's two close female envoys, Qiushuang and Dongxue also holding flower vessels, coming towards the camellia bushes here.

When Yuan Cuixiao saw the two of them, she couldn't help but think of the death curse that she had copied until she broke her hand. When the two of them came up to meet the ceremony, she hurriedly pulled Jin Mudan away.

Dongxue looked at her hurried back, turned her head to Qiushuang and said, "Sister Qiushuang, why do I look at my little lady, I seem to be very impatient when I see us."

Qiu Shuang just buried her head in pinching the flowers, and responded lightly: "My lord ordered us to choose the camellias, you just concentrate on picking them, so there's no need for so many words."

Dong Xue knew she had made a slip of the tongue, stuck out her tongue, picked up the scissors and moved away.

Qiushuang chose a few "Yumingcha", straightened up, looked around and said, "Dongxue, the 'Yuedan' bush next to you is blooming really well, just choose a few."

"Yeah." Dongxue walked over in response, stepped on something soft, said "噫", bent down to pick it up, but it was a handkerchief woven with brocade and flowers, and there were inscriptions on it. She couldn't read much. , I didn’t recognize them all, so I quickly waved and called, “Sister Qiushuang, come here quickly, and take a look at what this is?”

After hearing the news, Qiushuang came, took the handkerchief, shook it away, two blushes appeared on her fair cheeks, folded it hastily, stuffed it into the sleeves and said: "This handkerchief is very good at embroidery."

Dongxue patted his forehead and said loudly, "Ah! I know!"

Qiushuang frowned, her expression slightly annoyed: "Shocked, what do you know?"

"This veil must have been dropped by one of the two young ladies when pinching flowers." Dong Xue suggested, "Why don't we take it to the garden and return it to them."

"No." Qiushuang stopped her and said, "You must not let them know about this."

Dongxue didn't know, so she went in: "Then...what should Sister Qiushuang mean?"

Qiu Shuang pondered for a while and said: "Don't say it again, I have my own way to deal with it."

But Jiahui, who lost her handkerchief, went back to the Jinfu with Peony, found a free time, went to see Ding Cheng, and did the work of threading needles.As soon as he pulled out his sleeves, he couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat, and went back to the wing in a daze, but he couldn't remember where he lost the brocade handkerchief.I kept praying to all gods and Buddhas from the bottom of my heart: don't be picked up by others, and cause trouble...

But things in the world are often "the house leaks and it rains all night, the boat is late and the wind blows", this handkerchief fell into the hands of King Xiangyang by coincidence.Before Zhao Jueduan sat in the case, after listening to Qiushuang's detailed description, he took off the sachet hanging from his waist and compared it with the brocade handkerchief. Looking at his embroidery work, the difference was more than 01:30, as expected. Not by one person.I couldn't help but smile in my heart: what a "Guanguan Suijiu, in the river continent".This king intends to be a matchmaker with you, but all of you just take Qiao, but in private, you do this ambiguous thing.Thinking about this so far, I called my attendant and said: "Tomorrow night, the king will hold a banquet in the back hall to entertain the inspector and the prefect. Grab the name card quickly and go to the government office to invite people. Remember to inform the supervisor. Prepare a few songs and dances to cheer up the fun." Zhao Jue took the order to leave, Zhao Jue flicked the handkerchief, and a smug look flashed across his face: "Old man Jin Hui, since your daughter has committed such scandalous things, I am curious." , how will you, a father, deal with it...
