The concubine is enchanting: the favorite princess

Chapter 9
Ever since Mo Li left that day, Feng Yao has been thinking about the prosperous shop he mentioned.I always want to go and have a look, after all, it is where I will settle down in the future.

But he never found the right opportunity, and he couldn't just run out of the palace for no reason, and lose his status, so he could only think about it in the palace.Instead, he was busy with flavoring and making fat. From time to time, he also drew patterns of porcelain vases and fat boxes, and asked the imperial burning workshop in the palace to make them, and filled them with spices and rouge that he had mixed.

Seeing the Mid-Autumn Festival, colorful lanterns and red silk were hung everywhere in the palace, and many maids and nuns went out to buy new things according to the master's wishes, Fengyao found an opportunity to make things right this time A basket of bottles and cans was packed, and they changed into casual clothes and prepared to go out of the palace to have a look.

Since the founding of the Fengjue Kingdom, there have been two holy ancestor daughter emperors, so the folk customs are civilized, and women are not very cautious when going out.Only the princesses with golden branches and jade leaves, or the daughters of important ministers and wealthy families are more particular.

Feng Yao had his own waist card for going out of the palace, he exchanged a pair of cards at the palace gate, recorded the time and number of people going out of the palace, and left the side door in a light sedan chair.There were Ziying and Luluo on the left and right, and there were only a few guards in casual clothes, not too conspicuous.

After walking a short distance to West Street, Lu Luo went to the side of the sedan chair and raised a corner of the curtain, asking, "Princess, should I go to the Concubine's Mansion first, or the small courtyard where the Concubine lives now?"

Feng Yao thought for a while: "Maybe the son-in-law's mansion hasn't set up a shelf yet, so what's the point of going there?" Luluo understood, and ordered the sedan chair to go straight to the place where Mo Li lives now.

That house is not big, that is, three or four wing rooms.There is only a lintel on the front door, but no plaque.Looking at the back compartment, there is still a small courtyard, but I don't know what scenery is inside.

When Feng Yao's group arrived at the door, Zi Ying hurriedly ran to the door and knocked on the knocker.It took a while to hear footsteps, and it was Mo Li who came to open the door in person.

When Mo Li saw that it was Ziying, he immediately understood.He opened the door and hurried to the sedan chair.The four bearers glanced at the width of the door and had no choice but to drop the sedan chair.

"Master, the sedan chair is right here, I need to help you in." After Lu Luo finished speaking, she stepped forward to lift the sedan chair curtain.

Feng Yao habitually stretched out his hand, but when he lowered his head, he saw two arms across the front of the sedan chair.One is naturally a green radish.

The other white and slender white hand, the purple moiré cuff covers most of the back of the hand, revealing only the slender fingers holding it, which is actually strange.

Feng Yao pursed his lips, and put his jade hand on Moli's wrist lightly, he could feel his wrist protruding through the sleeve, obviously he was still too thin.

When getting out of the sedan chair and going up the steps, Moli stretched out his other hand and gently supported Feng Yao's elbow, letting her use her strength to let her go when she walked into the gate. Half a step behind.

Feng Yao turned his head warmly, and smiled faintly at Mo Li.

The corners of Mo Li's eyes curled up, the corners of his lips half curled up, and he smiled shallowly and flatteringly.Although the two of them didn't say a word, it seemed that the coolness of autumn had been diluted by the sweetness.

"Why did you answer the door yourself? Did you know it was me?" Feng Yao felt that the house was a little deserted when he entered the door, and he didn't see a servant.

"There's an old couple helping to tidy up, but they just went to deliver hot water to the foundation of the son-in-law's mansion." Mo Li said naturally, as if he was used to the coldness.

When Feng Yao heard this, he saw Mo Lijun's thin face again, and his heart felt slightly astringent: "Why don't you call more servants? How can two people take care of meals and clothes on weekdays?"

"One person cooks, one person cleans, and I tidy up my own clothes on weekdays, which is enough." Mo Li smiled, but seeing Feng Yao's worry, he quickly changed the subject: "Is Yao'er here to see me, or Did you come to see that shop?"

Feng Yao, who was called "Yao'er", lowered his head. He obviously wanted to ask something, but his mind went blank, and he forgot all of a sudden. He only replied in a low voice with a blushing face, "Naturally, I came to see you." .”

Mo Li's smile became stronger, and she led Feng Yao into the main hall. Although the hall is not big, it is elegantly decorated.In the corner of the room is a copper incense burner, burning agarwood.

Feng Yao was the best at mixing incense, and he could smell a faint plum fragrance in the spice, so he asked Moli, "What is added to the fragrance?"

"It's just ordinary agarwood. After burning it, it is showered with the morning dew on the plum blossoms in winter."

"You know fragrance too?" Feng Yao was surprised.Although the scent of agarwood is good, it is too heavy. If it is soaked with the cold plum fragrance, the aroma will be long-lasting and elegant.

Mo Lijun blushed slightly: "I didn't understand it at first. I just read some miscellaneous books recently, and it was written on it."

How clever Feng Yao is, if you listen to his words, you will know that he has a heart.It's just that nothing is known...

Feng Yao asked: "How did you get Lengmei Xianglu? There is nowhere to look for it now, it needs to snow."

Mo Li was suddenly embarrassed, the corners of his mouth curled up even more, and his smile became more charming, "If I say so, Yao'er won't be allowed to laugh."

"You said."

"After the winter solstice last year, there were several heavy snowfalls, so I went to pick them in the plum grove by the lake behind Yunqi Pavilion."

After the winter solstice, he went to the plum grove again... Feng Yao thought about it, and his pretty face flushed.

Lu Luo was a bit older, and with what Nanny Chen had mentioned earlier, seeing the two of them like this again, she hurried over and asked, "My son-in-law, what kind of tea do you have? Biluochun is the best."

"Yes. Look how stupid I was to neglect Yao'er." Mo Li hurriedly invited Feng Yao to take a seat, and he wanted to make tea himself.

Feng Yao lightly shook the hand still on his wrist, grabbed him and said, "I'm not thirsty, why don't we go to the back yard and see what the scenery is like."

Moli knew that Fengyao didn't want to see any scenery, the garden in the palace was the most beautiful and elegant in the Mahayana, she must have the intention to see if her life is good.Somewhat moved in his heart, he flipped his plain hand, and held Feng Yao's fingertips through his sleeve: "I often play the piano in the backyard, and the piano table is still set up, so it's good for Yao'er to come and listen to the piano."

"Naturally." Feng Yao smiled, very happy.Originally, he went to Merlin because of the beautiful sound of his piano.Now I finally have the opportunity to sit down and listen to him playing the piano, of course I am happy.

Mo Li simply held Feng Yao's hand behind his back through his sleeve, and the two walked towards the backyard together.

Luluo and Ziying looked at each other and hurriedly followed behind.Feng Yao turned his head and called the two of them: "Go make tea, and find some snacks and fruits over here."

Luluo and Ziying had no choice but to walk away tactfully, but they didn't dare to go far, they just waited by the corner gate leading to the backyard, and had to calculate the time to return to the palace, fearing that they would be late and not be able to enter the palace gate.

The backyard is not big, there are no waterside pavilions or pavilions, but a large area of ​​grass is full of greenery.There are some peonies and gardenias planted around the wall. The large white flowers have a rich aroma, which is more natural and casual than the gas incense.

In the middle of the grass is a rosewood piano table with a Guqin on it.There is no piano bench in front of the piano table, only a dark green blanket, presumably Mo Li is kneeling and playing the piano here.

Feng Yao walked onto the soft ankle-less grass to look at the Guqin, but was caught by the birdcage under a plane tree in the corner.
