The Legend of Shushan Xuanjian

Chapter 105

Cut the ice cream, lightly stack it several times, and inject evenly with light rouge.

New style of beautiful makeup, gorgeous and fragrant, embarrassing to kill the maid of Ruizhu.

It is easy to wither, and more, ruthless wind and rain.

misery.Ask the courtyard is desolate, how many spring evenings.

With a lot of hatred for sending away, never did the two swallows know how to speak.

The sky is far away, the earth is far away, and there are thousands of rivers and mountains. I know where the Forbidden City is.

Why don't you think about it, except that you sometimes go there in your dreams.

No evidence.Hemengya and Xinlai don't do it.

——"Yanshan Pavilion Seeing Apricot Blossoms in the North" Zhao Ji

In the hall of the inner courtyard of the Yang Mansion, Yang Guozhong's official wife, Mrs. Li, brought several of Yang Guozhong's concubines, and the wives of other courtiers to a feast for the female disciples from Bashu.

These ladies and gentlemen have plump bodies, full moon faces, dimpled cheeks, bright temples, and slightly exposed white skin on their chests.Entering the inner hall, take off the white fox fur and ferret fur, and reveal a short skirt with intarsia silk gauze, a high-waisted skirt of brocade brocade, garnet red, grape purple, colorful and competing, and all kinds of golden and shining jewelry. Hairpin comb, endless wealth and luxury.

Mrs. Li was not as eloquent as Yang Guozhong, after a few greetings, everyone chatted casually.The female relatives don't have so many rules, but they are more relaxed.

The wives of the courtiers are not like their husbands, they don't have the intention to win over female disciples from Bashu.

Although Li Xuexuan's appearance amazed them, and Hu Shan'er and others' youthful aura made them envious, but these young and beautiful female disciples made them hate and repel them more.

The more youthful and invincible they are, the more they contrast with their aging.Although they wear plain clothes, no makeup, and no accessories, their young smiles are their best makeup. Whether they are elegant, glamorous, or rebellious, they are fashionable in whatever they wear, and they are amazing when they sit, stand and walk. Hong Pianpian...

Which famous lady is willing to serve as a foil?
After a few courtesies, these ladies and ladies put aside these female disciples, and surrounded Mrs. Li, talking about some trivial topics: which girl is waiting in the boudoir, which son is particularly outstanding, what the ladies are wearing recently...

In their eyes, the purpose of this banquet is to establish a good relationship with Mrs. Yang, so that they can say a few words for their husband in the future.

Li Xuexuan, Hu Shan'er and the others were so happy that they ate without talking to each other, especially the exotic fruits, which are rarely seen in normal times. They were sweet and sour, which made them laugh and laugh. They sipped and tasted, and the surprises continued. It was really helpless today A small pleasure in entertainment.

The peaches are bright red, one by one stacked in a crystal clear glass cup, and then served with steamed crispy cheese with sugar. The flesh is sweet and sour, and the milk is mellow, which makes the girls want to stop.

The "Queen's Peach" in Hualin, Luoyang, has a local saying: "The Queen's Peach can relieve labor by eating it."

There are also "Jiaqing Li" from Luoyang, "Handi Xing" from Jinan County, "Bai Nai" from Liangzhou, which is as big as a rabbit's head, "Green Forest Tree" from Guanzhong, grapes from Guanzhong, pomegranates from Hedong, and Bashu. Luju, Liangzhou's melons "Royal Cicada Fragrance" and "Waist-hugging Green."

"The old man of Tian's family has nothing to do, steaming pears in a steamer during the day is fragrant."

In the middle of the banquet, the ladies got up one after another, chatting freely in groups of three or five.

Li Xuexuan, Hu Shan'er and the others simply went off together, took the utensils from the maids, grilled the "Aijia pears" in the open oven, and tasted them while playing.

……

Yichan watched the scene in the hall, full of thoughts.

Walking from the gate to this backyard, I don't know how many times I went through the courtyard, I just felt that the courtyard was full of layers, like a maze.The red palace lanterns hang high on the eaves, illuminating the courtyard like daytime, with nanmu railings, pebble paving, carved beams and painted buildings, which is magnificent.The back garden is even more gigantic, full of flowers, clusters of flowers, and a landscape of lakes and mountains.Gazebos, small buildings, bluestone bridges.The bright moon is like a hook, the arch bridge is like a rainbow, beside the clear water lake, swans play in the water, and mandarin ducks form a pair.

Yichan thought to himself: If I can have such a big house, and live here in seclusion with my seniors, every day I spend my days drawing eyebrows in the boudoir, painting in the gazebo, playing the piano by the lake, cuddling with the bridge fence, life is beautiful, what more can I ask for?
Thinking of Bai Fu, Yichan couldn't help but sigh again.For this banquet, all the teenagers from Bashu were invited, except Bai Fu.

Even a relative of the emperor like Mr. Yang is unwilling to offend Li Xiang because of Bai Fu.It can be seen that the rumors are true, Bai Fu not only offended Li Xiang, but also angered the Holy One.

If he only offended Li Xiang, he might be able to make up for it, but if he offended His Majesty, his official career would come to an end.

"Brother Fu is arrogant, if he knew that today's banquet was attended by everyone without telling him, how uncomfortable would it be?
"On the Sword in Shushan", Brother Fu and Li Xuexuan are on par.But today she is the No. [-] Scholar in Wushu, the fifth-rank relative Xun Yiwei Habayashi Langjiang, and Captain Shangqi.Give Wu Jinshi Jidi, purple gold fish bag, and gold Mingguang armor.The light shines brightly, and the stars shine in Chang'an.I have to say that life is really fateful.

……

Among all the ladies, there is only one who doesn't socialize with others very much.She stared coldly with her phoenix eyes, her crimson lips were slightly closed, her gaze was like a falcon, and she carefully looked at each of the Bashu female disciples.This person is Yang Guozhong's third wife, Yin Shi.

When she saw Li Xuexuan, she was as amazed as everyone else on the spot, but her intuition immediately made her extra vigilant. This was an instinct, the intuition of a woman who was in the social circle of celebrities in Chang'an.

When her eyes glanced at Yichan's nameplate, she couldn't help being taken aback.

She looked Yichan carefully from head to toe, not letting go of every inch.The more I look at her, the more I feel like a person.

Taking the opportunity of toasting each other, Yin came to Yichan's side and said, "Girl, you are from Bashu, why does your accent sound like white mountains and black waters?"

When Yichan saw a noble lady approaching her, she hurriedly stood up and saluted.

Yichan was reserved, squatting slightly, and replied flatteringly: "Reporting to Madam, I am originally from Baishan Heishui. A few years ago, I went to Sichuan with my father and worshiped at the gate of Qingcheng..."

Yin's heart was startled. Seeing that there were so many people talking here, it was inconvenient to ask more questions, so after a few words of greeting, she left with a smile and went straight to Li Xuexuan.

……

After the banquet was over, Yang Guozhong was drunk and blurred, and when he was messing around with the maidservants with the strength of wine, Yin Shi came into the house.

Yang Guozhong was quite displeased when his interest was interrupted, but what Yin said later made him tremble with fear.

Yin asked the maidservants to step back, and said with blazing eyes, "My lord, we must let Emei Li Xuexuan leave Chang'an as soon as possible."

"Why, she is the champion of this martial arts?" Yang Guozhong was surprised.

"This girl is made of ice and jade, and she is extremely beautiful. I am worried that she will live in Chang'an for a long time, and the favor of the concubine will soon be transferred to her. Once this happens, my Yang family will definitely face disaster."

"No way, she's still young!" Although Yang Guozhong didn't want to believe it, he felt uneasy.

"It's small now, and it won't be small in two years. The imperial concubine is old and fading, and she just takes her place.

I suspect that the Holy Majesty personally presided over the palace examination this time, and the reason why she never fails is because of her! "

Yang Guozhong carefully recalled Xuanzong's expression when he watched the game, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.He hurriedly said, "Third Sister, what should I do?"

Yin leaned into Yang Guozhong's ear and whispered: "My lord, this is the end of the matter, you should be like this..."

After hearing this, Yang Guozhong frowned, and asked half-believingly, "Is this feasible?"

Yin Shi smiled and said, "How will you know if you don't try?"

……

After Yin Shi returned to the house, she pondered for a long time, until the wick burned out and the candle flickered, she finally recovered from her thoughts.

She asked the servant girl to call someone in, and said, "Check out this person's background for me..."
