The faint sunlight shines on the rows of bamboo slips and thread-bound books through the Begonia window, and the earth dragon is caged in the hall, creating a warm feeling. While eating strawberries, Xiao Jing flipped through a torn volume of "Five Lake Chronicles".

Guan Yi brought two cups of hot milk tea, and placed one beside Xiao Luo who was practicing calligraphy seriously, "Second Prince, drink a cup of milk tea to warm up your body."

"Okay." Xiao Luo replied without raising her head and continued to dip her ink into the post.

Xiao Jing took a sip of the milk tea, and did not move his eyes from the bamboo slips, the two brothers were surprisingly alike.

"His Royal Highness, have you ever seen a strawberry tree?"

He closed the bamboo slips, looked sideways at her and nodded with a smile: "There are in the palace."

Guan Yi's eyes lit up when he heard the words, "Really? Can you tell where it is? I want to go and see."

"cannot!"

"why?"

Xiao Jing held on to the letter with one hand and fiddled with the black tea flowers in the cracked sky blue plum vase with the other: "Why does this king tell people who don't believe what they say?"

"The portrait...it's really difficult." She asked persistently, "Does the strawberry tree look good?"

"It's okay." Xiao Jing suppressed a smile and looked away. In a good mood, she turned the black tea flower in her hand and stuffed a strawberry into her mouth, saying, "It's delicious."

Xiao Luo waved her hand quietly, and Guan Yi hurried over, "Second Prince, have you run out of ink?"

He shook his head, put his little hand to his mouth and whispered to her: "Aunt Guan Yi, brother is lying to you, there is no strawberry tree in this world, he has never seen it before."

After speaking, he took a pen and wrote down the two characters neatly on the rice paper, and said solemnly: "Look, the initials of grass, strawberry, and grass have nothing to do with trees."

What?No strawberry trees!In her heart, what her father-in-law said was always right, Xiao Luo's words undoubtedly subverted her cognition, she was dazedly immersed in whether the strawberries were grown on the tree or grew in the grass, and she couldn't help herself, thinking a little bit in a trance.

The black tea shot out from Xiao Jing's hand, and it stuck into her temples impartially, she recovered her senses and touched it.

"If you are ugly, you should read more books."

Back in the yard at night, she has been brooding over the strawberry incident all day, she also has a temper, okay, she shouldn't take the initiative to talk to him tonight.

Sitting at the desk and copying the Buddhist scriptures calmly, I don’t know when I can see the word strawberry everywhere.

Li Chengchen pushed the door open, and Chuxue squeezed in through the crack of the door. She consciously went to the soft couch to grab the dried fish. The moment she saw him, the tension in her heart snapped. What would she do? Angry?

Holding a bag of things wrapped in lotus leaves in his hand, he walked slowly to the desk, and she pulled out the rice paper full of words on the table bit by bit with guilt, rolled it into a ball and kept rubbing it in her hands Pinching, "I...I'm copying Buddhist scriptures..."

As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I quickly stopped, I really wanted to slap myself, what about my memory?Don't talk to him just now to show that you are very angry.

How are you behaving?He raised his chin belatedly, rolled his eyes and snorted and turned his head away.

Li Chengchen put the lotus leaf on the table and took care of undressing and washing, then...then she couldn't hold back her curiosity and opened the lotus leaf, and then...then she couldn't hide her joy and jumped up happily, Then...then she very spinelessly forgot about being angry.

"Wow! Strawberries!" She couldn't wait to pick up one and took a bite. It was sour and sweet, as delicious as she imagined, "Elder-in-law, why did you lie to me that strawberries grow on trees?"

"I never said that."

She frowned and thought for a while, but she was speechless to refute. He had never said it himself, but he clearly hinted to her that the strawberries were grown on the tree!

Dare to be angry and dare not say anything while eating strawberries and reciting an anthology of poems, "At that time, I was young and thin, riding a horse leaning on a leaning bridge, and the building was full of red-sleeve tricks. Ah! So this is where the red-sleeve tricks came from? I used to do it in brothels. When I was working as a handyman, I was still wondering why the beautiful flower building had something to do with the sleeves."

Li Chengchen opened a secret letter and quickly read it by candlelight. Some of the notes were placed in a mahogany box, some were directly lit and thrown into the brazier to be turned into ashes, and some of the notes needed to be re-transcribed.

She reached out to touch the strawberry and only found a dry lotus leaf. Why did she finish eating it so quickly?The Bodhisattva Manfang asked after silently recited it again: "Eunuch, do you often visit privately with the emperor's micro-service?"

"Occasionally."

"Then have you been to Minzhou?"

"Ah."

Guan Yi became excited all of a sudden, leaned forward and said, "Am I familiar with Min Zhou's Qinlou Chu Pavilion? Hongxiuzhao, Liuse Pavilion, Taohuawu..."

She wrung her fingers aside like a treasure, Li Chengchen suddenly put the pen on the inkstone, looked at her with a gloomy expression, "Is it finished?"

"Say... that's it." Guan Yi's mind lit up, her father-in-law probably wouldn't go to those places, but she actually said something about brothels and willow houses in front of him, "Actually, I'm not familiar with those places, I'm not familiar with them , I just heard what other people said, and I’m not familiar with it.”

His expression softened slightly, and he continued to write, "Don't say this to others in the future, it will damage your reputation."

"Oh." She nodded obediently, and suddenly remembered something and said with a smile: "Eunuch, will private visits in micro-services punish the evil and promote the good, chop off the heads of those corrupt officials, and take out a gold medal at the critical moment, and everyone kneels down." , Long live Shanhu, rows of imperial guards and dark guards behind him all appear, as majestic as they want."

Speaking of the origin, she didn't know what she touched, but it was something to eat, she chewed it in her mouth, was it delicious?

"That's Xue'er's dried fish."

She stuck out her tongue, and threw it in front of Chuxue embarrassingly, "I used to listen to operas, and the scriptures I read recently were all written like this."

"You're overthinking." He accurately pulled out a book of words from an ancient book and threw it in front of her, "Who gave you the book?"

"This...that...it's getting late, I have a headache and go to bed first! Eunuch, you should also go to bed earlier."

You must not confess Xiaosongzi, she obviously hid it very well, how could she be found out, she took a sneak peek, but luckily she didn't burn the "Legend of the Fox Girl", thinking of certain words and sentences in the book, what Luo Chang half understood, Furong tent was warm, and once in the spring night, we went to Wushan together... I seem to understand but vaguely understand what it means, my cheeks are hot, father-in-law, you should burn it!

In the early morning of the next day, just as the room was tidied up, the door was opened with a creak, and two small heads poked out. It was Xiao Jing and Xiao Luo. come here?"

"I heard that there are still red plums in full bloom here, so I am here to fold a few branches for my mother and concubine to put in a bottle." Xiao Jing took a look at the layout of the room, and then took a meaningful look at the soft couch in front of the window, "It didn't Mandarin ducks and ducks together!"

Guan Yi simply ignored it in the mist, brewed a pot of hot tea, and covered the charcoal fire in the cage stove, "Today, the servants have to go to the Chenyuan Hall to help His Royal Highness pack his luggage, so it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time."

"Not urgent."

Xiao Jing picked up a plain porcelain plum vase and looked at it. She looked at his casual movements in horror and reminded: "His Royal Highness, be careful, this plum vase is worth 3000 taels of silver."

"Oh?"

"Chuxue smashed one a while ago, and another one, the servants can't bear it."

He knocked on the porcelain wall to make a crisp sound, touched his nose and said, "More than that, at least 6000 taels."

Guan Yi suddenly raised his head, 6000 taels!a bottle!I'm afraid I'm not crazy!Before she recovered from the shock, she only heard a crash when the plum vase fell to the ground and the tiles splashed everywhere. Xiao Jing was slightly startled, "Sorry, my hand slipped."

"6000 taels..." She was trembling and did not dare to look at the broken porcelain pieces, wanting to cry but no tears.

Xiao Luo picked up a piece of broken porcelain and looked it over, looked at her and tilted her head and smiled: "Aunt Guan Yi, it's fine, it's just an ordinary vase."

She was a little confused by this sudden surprise, Xiao Jing laughed loudly: "About a dozen taels of silver, Mr. Li likes simplicity, but his taste is extraordinary, the plum vase in Chenyuan Hall is worth 3000 taels. Let's go, This king will show you a little bit."

Before leaving, Xiao Jing hugged Xiao Luo and picked a few red plum blossoms that were left, while Guan Yi seriously thought about the cause and effect of the matter, so she was fooled for so long like this?So what was she staring at those bottles nervously every day for?In fact, if you think about it carefully, a dozen taels of silver is a lot!

On the way back to Chenyuan Hall, I happened to meet Li Chengchen, "His Royal Highness, follow me to Tenglong Pavilion first!"

"it is good."

Guan Yi moved over quietly, and asked hesitantly: "His Royal Highness said that plum vase is only worth a dozen taels of silver."

"Ah."

"You clearly told me it was 3000 taels of silver!"

Li Chengchen said lightly: "What you like is priceless."

Seeing his serious expression, she felt that 3000 taels was not enough, Mu Mu nodded, there was nothing wrong, but why did she feel that something was not right?
