Jiaochu

After coming out, Ye Lingxi heard the passing maid saying that the plum blossoms in the plum garden were in bloom, so she took Hehe in that direction, intending to break off two branches and go back to show her mother and concubine.

As soon as she arrived at the gate of Meiyuan, she saw a familiar pair of master and servant. Before she could turn around, she was stopped by someone.

"The princess is here too."

The eyes were so kind, Ye Ling said sincerely, "It's such a cold day, why did Brother Murong come out?" She walked a few steps over and stopped under another plum tree, still one or two meters away from him.

"Thank you for your concern, princess, but if you can see the princess, it doesn't hurt to come out in such a cold day." Murong Ze said playfully.

Hearing the seemingly provocative words behind her, Ye Lingxi felt a little goosebumps on her body, and walked a few steps away, thinking to herself that this person was casting a net to catch fish, and whoever she and her second sister caught in the net was who.

Murong Ze signaled, Jing Zhe pushed the wheelchair over, and Ye Lingxi walked away a few steps. He put his head on one hand and chuckled, "Is the princess afraid of me?"

"This princess is not even afraid of ghosts, so why should she be afraid of Brother Murong, a living person?" Ye Lingxi said casually, reaching out and gently pressing a branch with flower bones to look at it, then letting it go, her eyes falling on the branch above. There were five or six plum blossoms on the branches. After looking away, he took He He and walked forward.

Jingzhe pushed the wheelchair Murong Ze was sitting in and followed behind.

"I thought the princess was angry with me and didn't want to see me again."

"My princess is not blind. She can see it even if she doesn't want to see it. At worst, she can pretend not to see it."

She stopped under a plum tree, and her eyes fell on one of the branches with flowers. After looking at it for two seconds, she walked forward.

"If what I said last time offended the princess, the princess must also give me a chance to apologize." Murong Ze said.

Hearing the word "apology", Ye Lingxi thought a lot and said, "Then how does Brother Murong plan to apologize?"

Murong Ze said: "Why don't I pick some beautiful plum blossoms for the princess?"

You are so good at apologizing. Ye Lingxi's perfunctory thoughts were reflected in her eyes. Then she thought about it and wanted to explore the details of King Zhenbei in the future, so she said, "You choose, I will go over there and have a look." She took it with her. He He went to the other side and picked five or six plum blossoms there. When he came back, he saw two or three plum blossoms on Murong Ze's lap. He picked up one of them and said, "This branch has many flowers. The princess should Will like it.”

"Just one branch, where's the rest?"

Do you still want to pay attention to her second sister? The calculation is quite cost-effective, Ye Ling said heartily.

"If you like them both, then give them to the princess." Murong Ze picked up the other two plum blossoms and handed them to Jingzhe. Jingzhe handed them to Hehe and asked, "Princess, have you calmed down?"

"Let's see how you behave." Ye Lingxi hugged Mei Hua and left. After He He bowed to Murong Ze and left, he also hugged Mei Hua and left behind.

After walking out of the garden, Ye Lingxi took Hehe to the direction of Changle Palace.Not long after the master and servant left, Hongxing came over with a hand stove.

After giving the hand stove to Murong Ze, Hong Xingjiao smiled and said: "Master has great taste, please pick a plum blossom for me too." Murong Ze raised his finger and said, "Let's take that one." Hong Xing took the lead and stopped in front of Jingzhe. , walked over and broke off the plum branch, admired it for himself first, then walked back with the branch and said, "These plum blossoms are really beautiful, but they are not as good as those planted by the master himself."

"Let's go back."

After leaving the garden, Hong Xingjiao smiled and said, "Master, go over there and have a look." The direction indicated was completely opposite to the direction Ye Lingxi left.Murong Ze glanced in that direction and asked casually, "I heard that Mr. Yu lives in the cold palace?"

Hongxing replied, "We haven't entered the Leng Palace yet. It is in Xiyuan next to the Leng Palace, but it is almost the same as the Leng Palace. I think the emperor will not favor Yu Guiren anymore. The emperor really prefers Concubine Lan. If Concubine Lan If a prince is born in the future, she will probably have a higher status than Concubine Xiao." At this point, she paused and hesitated, "I think the third princess has a weird temperament and is not as docile and well-behaved as the second princess."

"It's weird, it's interesting to tame it." Murong Ze said.

Hongxing opened her lips but said nothing.

……

On the other side, Ye Qingran was sitting by the window reading a book, wearing a fluffy light gray cloak. She looked elegant and relaxed.

Xiao Quanzi walked in with two plum blossoms and said with a happy face: "Your Highness, this is what the princess just brought for you." When Xiao Quanzi went to find a bottle to put the plum blossoms in, Ye Qingran glanced out the window. .

"Your Highness, can you take a look at this bottle?" Xiao Quanzi brought a blue and white porcelain vase. Ye Qingran nodded. After Xiao Quanzi put the plum blossoms in the bottle, he came over happily and placed the bottle on Ye Qingran. However, on the table in front of her, "Princess has really good taste, and the plum blossoms she picked are also very beautiful. Your Highness, if you are tired of reading, just look at the flowers."

After Ye Qingran let Xiao Quanzi go down, she looked at the plum blossoms, stretched out her hand to slightly adjust the branches, and then returned her eyes to the book.

After leaving Changle Palace, Ye Lingxi met her third brother again.

Ye Xingye rubbed a snow dumpling in his hand, as if he was going to find someone to have a snowball fight with. Then he remembered something and said excitedly that he would take her somewhere.

On the way, Ye Xingye introduced his martial arts master to Ye Lingxi.

Qu Lianmei.

She had never heard of this name, but to be able to enter the palace and teach the prince, he must not be an ordinary person.

Ye Xingye has been interested in martial arts since he was a child. When he was 11 years old, Ye Lanchen asked Yan Jiang to find a martial arts master from outside the palace to teach him. This martial arts master was Qu Lianmei.

"Master asked me to punch him when he first met me. I punched him once without using all my strength. Master said that my fist was soft, like an embroidered pillow. Then I punched him with all my strength. Boxing, the master said that I have some talent, so he accepted me as his disciple." Speaking of this, Ye Xingye raised his chin proudly, and emphasized that the other party does not accept disciples easily, and being recognized is a very important step. What a glorious thing.

Ye Lingxi was thinking about why he was telling her this, so he took advantage of the situation and asked her how old she was and whether she was married. Ye Xingye couldn't tell her exact age, so the answer he gave was around forty, because he had never seen her before. I'm a master's wife, so she probably hasn't gotten married yet.

After arriving at the martial arts training ground, Ye Xingye led Ye Lingxi straight through the entire venue, then passed through the vermilion door at the back, passed through a corridor, passed through a hanging flower gate, and finally entered a courtyard.

As soon as he entered, Ye Lingxi saw a man bending down to water the flowers.

"That's Master." Ye Xingye introduced in a low voice.

The other person was wearing an elegant gown and looked more like an elegant teacher, which was far different from the image of a burly man that Ye Ling had imagined.
