The plum blossoms here are deeper red and have a stronger aroma, just like the plum blossom wine here, which is also stronger than the one in Dongchen. As the saying goes, the soil and water nourish the people. People in different places have different habits, and so do the things.
When her thoughts were wandering, Xiao Lanxin came over and said in a very light tone: "Sixth Princess, do you think the plum blossoms in Dongchen are more beautiful, or the plum blossoms in the Western Kingdom are more beautiful?"
Ye Fuxun turned his head and glanced at her, chuckled, and said, "They all have their own characteristics, but they are just plum blossoms. There is no comparison."
"Really? Let me ask a simple question," Xiao Lanxin looked at Ye Fulun with a half-smile, "If you choose one of the two, would you choose Xiguo or Dongchen?"
Of course it is Dongchen, there is no doubt about it! But Ye Fuxun cannot say that, because her soul is from Dongchen, but her body is that of the princess of the Western Kingdom.
Moreover, Xiao Lanxin should have some deep meaning when asking this question, and she could not answer it casually.
So she didn't answer and asked instead: "What about you? As the former princess of Dongchen Kingdom and now the concubine of the prince of Xi Kingdom, what would you choose?"
Xiao Lanxin smiled disdainfully and said, "I am no longer the princess of Dongchen Kingdom. I am now from the Western Kingdom." She answered simply.
Ye Fuxun nodded, but still did not answer Xiao Lanxin's question.
She didn't want to stand with Xiao Lanxin and felt uncomfortable if she stayed for a moment longer, so she was going to go somewhere else. At this time, there was a pond not far from them. She wanted to go around the pond and go to the stone table on the other side.
Sit aside.
Unexpectedly, when she reached the edge of the pond, she heard footsteps coming from behind. Her instinctive reaction taught her to turn around immediately, only to see Xiao Lanxin rushing towards her and pushing her towards her.
Xiao Lanxin wants to push her into the water!
All this happened so fast that Ye Fuxun had no time to react, so she could only try to hide to the other side as much as possible. Because she evaded quickly, she barely managed to escape.
Xiao Lanxin was surprised, and she jumped to nothing. When she didn't know how to take the next step, Ye Fuxun had already reacted and pushed Xiao Lanxin, causing her to fall into the water.
"Concubine Chu, come up quickly. It's very cold today. You have to change clothes quickly."
It just snowed two days ago, and there is still snow left, which shows that the weather is very cold.
In order to keep herself from looking bloated, Xiao Lanxin originally wore very little clothes. Now she rolled into the water and her whole body was soaked. It was no different from wearing nothing.
As soon as the cold wind blew over, she shivered all over, her face suddenly turned blue, and her teeth were trembling.
After landing, someone kindly handed her a crane cloak to put on her. She could barely stand, and then looked at Ye Fuxun angrily.
Ye Fuxun had been standing nearby, watching with a smile as if watching a play. Seeing Xiao Lanxin in such a mess, he felt even more happy and almost couldn't help laughing.
"Concubine Chu, are you okay? Fortunately, the water in this pond is not deep, otherwise you would have drowned even if you didn't freeze to death."
Although her words sounded like schadenfreude, they were quite reasonable, so she didn't think there was anything wrong.
Xiao Lanxin said angrily: "You were the one who pushed me down, and you are still here crying like a cat, pretending to be compassionate!"
Everyone cast shocked looks at Ye Fuxun in surprise, and they all thought secretly in their hearts. Many of them knew that the Sixth Princess after coming back was very different from before, and she was a person who was not easy to mess with.
If she would push Concubine Chu into the water, it would not be impossible.
"It's obvious that you accidentally fell it, and yet you accuse me of it with your bare teeth? It's really ridiculous!"
"I didn't frame you, you pushed me down! It was you!" Although she was wrapped in a crane cloak, Xiao Lanxin still shuddered from time to time, and her voice was trembling when she spoke.
"You said it was me who pushed you down. Did anyone see it? Who can prove that you are not falsely accusing me?"
Everyone was just chatting, so no one noticed the two of them? Moreover, even if someone really saw that scene, they wouldn't say anything about it.
One is the noble Sixth Princess, and the other is just a little concubine. Who would offend the Sixth Princess for an insignificant person? Isn’t that because she is full?
Xiao Lanxin also knew that no one would be willing to stand up and was immediately speechless.
Ye Fuxun then smiled and said, "Why, Concubine Chu has nothing to say?"
"You..." Xiao Lanxin gritted her teeth and stared at Ye Fulun, as if her eyes were about to burst into flames, "Do you think you can ridicule me at will because no one dares to stand up and testify against you? Is it you who pushed me away?
If you kill me, God is watching!"
"Why did God need to see it? I saw the scene when you fell into the water just now." A cheerful voice came from the crowd, and Mu Yunfang slowly walked out and stood next to Ye Fuxun.
"I could see it clearly at the time. It was clearly you who wanted to push the Sixth Princess into the water. As a result, the Sixth Princess dodged and you jumped in the air. Then your feet slipped and you fell into the water.
I didn’t expect that when I came ashore, I would bite you back, tsk tsk, I didn’t expect Master Chu to be an upright and upright official, and to teach a daughter like you, it’s really a shame!”
After Mu Yunfang finished speaking, she did not forget to give Xiao Lanxin a look of disdain.
"Oh, so that's it..."
"I didn't expect Concubine Chu to be such a person..."
Everyone present started talking, and like Mu Yunfang, they cast disgusted looks at her.
Xiao Lanxin couldn't stand immediately, panicked, and hurriedly pushed away the crowd and ran away.
After the crowd dispersed, Ye Fuxun asked Mu Yunfang with a smile: "Did the second sister-in-law really see the scene of Concubine Chu falling into the water just now?"
"No, I rushed over after hearing the noise. I was so happy when I saw that bitch fall into the water." Mu Yunfang said with beaming eyebrows.
"When I saw her staring at you with hatred on her face, I knew you must have pushed her down, so of course I had to speak for you, so I made up what I just said."
For the first time, Ye Fuxun felt that Mu Yunfang was actually a little cute, and he smiled and said, "Thank you, second sister-in-law, for speaking up for me, otherwise those people wouldn't know why they wanted me."
Mu Yunfang waved her hand and said, "Thank you for what? Didn't you give me some advice? I can take it as repaying you by doing this."
The long plum blossom appreciation banquet finally ended near midnight. Bai Yuxian came to find Ye Fulun and asked with some worry: "I just heard that you and Xiao Lanxin had an affair. Are you okay?"
Ye Fuxun was slightly stunned. Rumors would indeed be exaggerated as soon as they spread. She and Xiao Lanxin only had a few quarrels at most, so why did they turn into "fighting"?
"No, how could something happen to me? The person who was in trouble was Xiao Lanxin, and I pushed her into the pond."
