Volume 1: Spring in the Painting Hall Chapter 93: Moonlight with Flowers Gone
When the sun went down, the carriage stopped in front of a courtyard.
Xiao Yizheng got out of the carriage with Qingxi in his arms.
As soon as Qingxi's feet landed on the ground, he immediately raised his eyes and looked: the words "Tangdi Garden" came into view.
"This is?" She looked back at Xiao Yizheng.
Along the way, he refused to disclose the destination of his trip.
Xiao Yizheng held her hand and said softly: "This is the royal private garden."
"Huh? There is a royal private garden in Beisu?" Qingxi was confused.
Nowadays, people advocate frugality and never make great achievements. It is rare to build any private buildings outside Shangdu, let alone in the northernmost Beisu.
Xiao Yizheng explained with a smile: "My father has never been to Beisu. This garden was expanded and built on the basis of the original garden when my grandfather marched here when he was young."
"Emperor Sejong?"
Xiao Yizheng nodded.
Emperor Sejong was a man of great military prowess and expanded territory throughout his life. He was the first person who contributed most to the founding of the Dacheng Kingdom. His conquests were all over the world.
"You should know that in the last years of the previous dynasty, chaos broke out, and rebel armies from all walks of life continued to fight. Taizu first captured Shangdu and proclaimed himself emperor, while the old ministers of the previous dynasty protected Prince Jing'an who was in danger and retreated to Beisu, establishing a
The little imperial court, Taizu, asked the emperor's grandfather to come to Beisu to pursue the last remaining force."
Qingxi naturally knows this history.
Back then, Emperor Sejong led his troops to Beisu and wiped out the former small court almost effortlessly.
"This garden is what was left back then." Xiao Yizheng waved his hand and said: "This is Nangui Mountain to the south of Beisu City. From here you can overlook the magnificent mountains and rivers of Dacheng to the south." He paused slightly and stared at the clear sky.
Xi added: "The most important thing is: the Qingning Ganquan you have always wanted to taste is in this mountain. It's late today, I will take you there tomorrow."
Qingxi's eyes indeed lit up with joy.
He gently rubbed her catkins and continued: "There are also natural hot springs in the garden, which are good for your body."
Qingxi smiled and asked, "Have you planned this a long time ago?"
He smiled and said nothing. He had worked hard day and night these past few days just to arrange important matters quickly and steal the two days to bring her here.
It was also Xiao Yizheng’s first time to visit Tangdi Garden.
So, after the two entered the park, the first thing they did was stroll around slowly.
This garden occupies a small area but has a compact structure. All houses are spread out around the hot spring pool in the center of the garden. The architectural style combines the practicality of the north with the beauty of the south.
The most exquisite part of the whole yard is the hot spring pool. The natural hot spring pool is not big, it is a circular pool with a diameter of ten feet. It is surrounded by mist all year round and is surrounded by natural rocks. It is very beautiful.
It covers this private space well and creates an excellent view that can be enjoyed when bathing in the hot spring.
At this time, the rocks are still covered with white snow, which complements the red lanterns placed beside the hot spring. The pure white and warm red are the romance of this place.
"It's so beautiful." Qingxi couldn't help but sigh.
"Yueying said that you worked hard and slept all night in order to rush on the road. You have a lot of bruises on your body caused by riding horses. You will be exhausted after dinner and bathing in the hot springs later." Xiao Yizheng picked her up and gathered her outer cloak.
Take her to have a meal.
However, during the entire dinner, Qingxi felt inexplicably uneasy, but she couldn't figure out where the uneasiness came from.
After dinner, the maid took her to change clothes, and when she walked to the hot spring wrapped in a thick fur coat, she suddenly remembered and asked: "What is your highness doing?"
The maid smiled and said: "Your Highness is warming the wine."
"Warm wine?" Qingxi frowned and said, "He can't drink." After saying that, she was about to walk back.
"Princess, if you walk around like this, the cold will invade. You guys have done a great sin. Please hurry up and get into the pool!" The maid stopped her hastily, with tears in her eyes.
Qingxi immediately thought that she was indeed wearing only an inner layer of clothing, which was not appropriate. She ordered: "Go and spread the word. If His Highness drinks tonight, I will return to Shangdu tomorrow. Go quickly."
The maid hesitated: "But...but..."
"Don't worry about me. It's just a bath in the hot spring. Do I still need you to serve me? Go quickly!"
She was also anxious, and her tone was a bit hasty, which made the maid feel majestic, and she did not dare to disobey, so she hurriedly turned around and ran along the path.
Walk.
Qingxi couldn't help shivering as she stood by the pool. After all, the night was cold. Thinking that if she got sick, everyone would be more worried, so she raised her hand to take off her outer cloak and quickly entered the pool.
Being submerged in the warm water makes you feel instantly comfortable.
Qingxi's face gradually flushed, and she gently paddled in the water, found a comfortable sitting position, leaned her back against the smooth rock wall, and slowly closed her eyes.
The whole world is silent and undisturbed.
After a while, she heard footsteps behind her.
Needless to say, no one would dare to come here except the maid serving her at this time.
She asked without thinking: "What did Your Highness say?"
"It's best to return to Shangdu as soon as possible." Xiao Yizheng's mellow voice sounded.
Qingxi was startled and hurriedly looked back and saw him slowly walking towards him dragging a tray.
She panicked again and hurriedly retreated to the other side of the pond. She instinctively hid in the water again, wishing she could bury her head in the pond.
Xiao Yizheng looked at her with her eyes wide open, like a cute, frightened, frightened rabbit. His heart felt itchy and he swallowed uncontrollably. He quickly moved his eyes away and said with a leisurely smile: "I told you, I will serve you."
"You, you, you..." After saying you three times, Qingxi still did not say the next words.t.
Seeing him wearing Zhou Zheng, she secretly felt angry, and then shook her head, wondering what on earth she was thinking.
Xiao Yizheng placed the tray in his hand by the pool and sat on the ground. He didn't hear what she said next and couldn't help but look up.
Seeing her lowering her eyes slightly, her shoulders were slightly exposed, a strand of her hair was hanging down and fell on her collarbone. It was soaked in the spring water and stuck to her skin like snow. It happened that the floating mist made this beauty so beautiful.
There are layers of hazy and blurred beauty, sometimes near and sometimes far away.
He suddenly felt that blood was rising all over his body, and his heart was pounding with no where to go.
He secretly expressed that he was really stupid. Only such a stupid person would sit by the hot spring wearing three layers of clothing.
He coughed twice and said hoarsely, "Sit down, I'm just here to accompany you."
Qingxi bit her lip lightly, feeling that being shy was quite useless. She calmed down, gathered her strength, raised her head generously and said, "You are not allowed to be greedy for alcohol."
Xiao Yizheng chuckled, picked up the jug and poured two cups: "This is medicinal wine. The imperial doctor said, drink less, it will help activate blood circulation and unblock meridians." After saying that, he reached out and placed one of the cups as far as he could reach.
From a distance, "You should drink less."
Qingxi didn't dare to move, but still blinked her watery eyes, feeling that the temperature of the hot spring was too hot.
Xiao Yizheng drank the medicinal wine in his hand.
He straightened his right leg, half-bent his left leg, held his left hand behind his back, and held a small wine glass in his right hand and rested it casually on his right knee, looking cool and relaxed.
He saw Qingxi's nervousness and said with a smile: "Isn't this beautiful scenery on such a beautiful day what you yearn for the most?" Immediately, he raised his head and pointed at the moon: "When the bright moon comes out, the light shines thousands of meters high."
Hearing this, Qingxi also looked at the night sky.
At this sight, I was deeply attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of me.
The sky is full of stars twinkling, the jade plate is bright and clear, and the whole night sky is orchid-like, as if it is so close in front of you that you can reach out and touch it.
The thick mist of hot air floating above the hot spring slowly rises, as if melting into the night.
The white snow on the high and low rocks on both sides shone silvery in the moonlight, and the circle of red lanterns surrounding the hot spring surrounded by the rocks was even more eye-catching.
Looking up at the moon, the two of them blended in the beautiful scenery of heaven and earth, forgetting all the troubles around them, and only wished that the world could be as pure as this.
The two had a tacit understanding and no one broke such a beautiful atmosphere.
Until Qingxi smelled the faint aroma of wine and softly chanted: "The moonlight and the wine make this night long."
Her voice is crisp and sweet.
Xiao Yizheng looked sideways at her, and the smile between his eyebrows deepened. He elegantly said in agreement: "The moonlight and the light of the flowers make this night long."
Qingxi smiled shyly and immediately understood what he meant by "flower light".
Xiao Yizheng was in a high mood, although he was still accompanied by anxiety everywhere.
He filled himself another cup and drank it all in one gulp. His whole body became even hotter and he had to take off his coat.
"No more drinking." Qingxi said urgently.
He smiled brightly and met the moon in the mountains
The colors are evenly divided into bright colors, dazzling and charming.
Qingxi is also a little obsessed.
"I haven't had a drink with Ah Heng yet." Xiao Yizheng filled a glass again and raised it to her.
Qingxi thought that she might not be able to have a drink with him, so she reluctantly began to move her steps under the water, and slowly walked towards the wine glass placed by the pool.
Maybe it was because it was so comfortable to soak in the hot spring. As soon as I moved, my legs felt weak and weak. It happened that the natural rocks at the bottom of the pool were extremely smooth.
She accidentally slipped a step, her feet flew into the air, and she threw herself forward, and was instantly submerged into the spring.
"Ah Heng!" Xiao Yizheng exclaimed, and without thinking, he dove into the pool, causing water to splash everywhere.
He quickly grabbed her waist in the water and dragged her out of the water.
Qingxi took a few sips of water, put her hands tightly on Xiao Yizheng's shoulders, and coughed repeatedly after standing firm.
"How are you doing? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Did you bump into her?" Xiao Yizheng raised his hand to move the hair stuck to her face and asked anxiously.
Qingxi regained his composure, shook his head slowly, and regained his composure.
She didn't know how to swim, and she was indeed shocked by the slip just now.
But the spring was not deep, and she could actually stand up on her own.
After realizing this, she discovered the current situation.
Xiao Yizheng put his hands around her waist, and her hands were tightly holding his shoulders. The two of them stood close to each other in the spring, and she only wore a gauze lining, surrounded by mist, and above her head were the bright moon and stars.
The tip of the nose is full of masculinity.
Her whole body turned red, her head was pounding like a lightning strike, she couldn't think, she was at a loss, her breathing was rapid, and her legs were paralyzed.
And Xiao Yizheng was also stunned for a moment, and it suddenly seemed that there was nothing wrong.
He hugged her delicate and boneless body. Through a layer of gauze, he could feel that her skin was like cream, and everything he could see was as bright as snow. He thought that he might be losing his mind. He didn't want to let go.
