Chapter 3: Hou House (on)


On the second day, at five and two o'clock, the entire city of Chang'an woke up with the sound of bells and drums.
Liu Qinghuan sat up from the bed and touched his face subconsciously.
Red peach and Qingying noticed the movement in the tent, and came forward to lift her up, waiting for her to dress and freshen up. After having breakfast, Liu Qinghuan looked at the sky, and it was time to greet Mrs. Xue.
Speaking of Xue Mu's mother Ning, Liu Qinghuan also heard many rumors about her. It is said that when she was young, she was a famous talent in Changan City. Not only did she look beautiful, she also wrote well. At that time, the king and grandson who admired her in Chang'an City were no less than the princess who admired Xue Mu today. It is a pity that such a beautiful woman does not love the genius who is easy-going, but prefers the general who is riding the field. It is said—yes, it is still said that in a dark afternoon with floral fragrance, Ning's love for the young general who came by horse at first sight.
That man was Xue Cheng, a famous general.
There are many sayings about the story of Ning's and General Xue Cheng's flowers, but the ending is surprisingly unified-the day was clear, the wind was cool, and 16-year-old Ning finally married the Xue family. .
At that time, Donggan and Luoguo violated our border. Ning's marriage with Xue Cheng was soon forced to separate. General Xue fought nearly every year. He and Ning became more and more separated. In the 29th day of Tianzheng, General Xue finally Having repelled Donggan Luo State, he also died unfortunately. At that time, Xue Mushang was very young, and Ning could not bear the blow, and he could not afford illness.
Liu Qinghuan thought that she could not help but sigh. She looked at the house near her, and her eyes were stunned.
There was a hint of medicinal scent in Ning's room. Liu Qinghuan went to her knees and hugged her hands slightly in front of her chest. He said, "Anyang, Qing Huan is here to greet you."
Liu Qinghuan was born beautiful and beautiful. Today she wore a fiery red pomegranate skirt with a pair of golden step shakes on her head, which made her more bright and colorful. Ning Shi looked at the figure of Yan Ting in front of her, but she had mixed feelings. She remembered when her son was six years old and said to her, "Mother, I like that little dumpling."
The Xue family and the Liu family have a deep friendship. The two have been in contact, and Xue Mu and Liu Qinghuan have known each other since childhood. At that time, when they saw that they were in a good relationship, they decided to give them a baby kiss. Later, Liu Qinghuan made good friends with Yongzi's son Tang Zibo, and gradually alienated Xue Mu. Since then, not to mention Xue Mu, even Ning has rarely seen Liu Qinghuan. She thought that the marriage between the two would also end, and did not expect that the last two were still married as scheduled.
Her family Muer finally married his small group into the house.
The big girl next to her called her softly, and then Ningshi remembered that Liu Qinghuan was still kneeling below.
Quickly ordered someone to help her up, Ning let Liu Qinghuan sit down on the side of the couch. After Liu Qinghuan sat down, looking at Ning's with a smile, Wen asked, "How is A-niang's health today?"
Ning ’s heart warmed a little. Qinghuan ’s child was so good-looking. This smile made it even more fascinating. It ’s no wonder that Muer was so fond of her:
You and Muer are married, I ’m happy, this My body is a lot fresher than before. "
Speaking of this, Ning's suddenly remembered that Xue Musu was at the side of the lotus flower last night, and the original sympathy suddenly turned into a negative sign.
She wanted to ask Liu Qinghuan, on the day of the wedding, the young couple didn't make good use of the house. What did it mean to sleep separately? But a few words came to my mouth and swallowed back when I touched the smile on Liu Qinghuan's face. Ning's helplessness, he had to go roundabout: "Qing Huan, Mu Er led his soldiers all year round. When it comes to marching and fighting, he is on the move, but when it comes to his daughter's family, he may not yet have the understanding of his cousin. You must be more considerate. He is. "
"Yes, Qing Huan remembers the teachings of A Niang." Liu Qing Huan replied with the same smile on his face.
Ning's hesitated for a while, and felt that this topic was a bit unworkable.
The two chatted a few more words, and Ningshi let Liu Qinghuan return to his room. After Liu Qinghuan resigned, he was relieved in his heart, and finally passed the old lady.
After lunch, Qing Ye reported: "Madam, Hou Ye has returned, and is now making tea on the lotus pavilion."
"Jiancha?" Liu Qinghuan gave her a surprise look. Qing Ye nodded and replied, "When Hou Ye is upset or has discussions, he will go to the lotus pavilion for tea.
Liu Qinghuan nodded thoughtfully, and asked, "Hou Ye, do you have any other preferences?"
Qing Ye thought for a while and thought, "Houye has a good drink, everyone in the army says Houye is not drunk with a thousand glasses."
Chitao heard the words and echoed the words: "In order to sacrifice Grandpa, many people in Chang'an City would send famous wines to Houfu like no money. Well, the wines they sent are not as good as the Emperor's reward. "
Liu Qinghuan blinked and looked at them and said, "The two of you served the Grandpa before?"
Chitao Qingsong was shocked when she heard her asking, and both kneeled down on the ground: "Mrs. Mingcha, although the servants are serving Hou Ye, they are just ordinary girls!"
Liu Qing asked with a smile: "It's not an ordinary girl, what is that girl?"
Akato: "..."
Qing Ye: "..."
There is always a feeling of being teased.
Liu Qinghuan got the two girls up and asked, "Well besides wine?"
Qingye said: "Houye still loves horses, and his wife must have heard of Houye's two foals Jedi and Zhaoye. They followed Houye on the battlefield and made a lot of contributions. In addition, Houye often followed the emperor to Xishan. Hunting, so Hou Fuli also raised tadpoles and cheetahs. By the way, there is a local leopard caught by Hou Ye in Houfu, which is less than a month and very cute. "
Liu Qinghuan was very satisfied with Qing Ye's inexhaustible cooperative attitude. She memorized the news one by one and stood up from the couch: "Let's go to the Lotus Pavilion."
There is a small pond in the garden of the Yongning Houfu House, called the Lotus Pond, which can be rafted in spring and enjoy flowers in summer. In April, although the lotus has not yet opened, many colorful buds can already be seen on the lotus pond. There are several shadowy figures in the pavilion in the center of the pond. Liu Qinghuan crossed the floating bridge on the surface of the pond and entered the lotus pavilion.
Xue Mu was sitting in the center of the pavilion, with two men and a woman standing beside him. The young man on the left had a high nose and deep eye sockets, dressed as a Hu Ren, while the young man next to him was wearing a round neck gown, black boots, and a long knife around his waist. Standing on the other side is a beautiful girl in a green dress, who looks seventeen or eighteen years old, with a round face, staring at herself silently.
Liu Qinghuan's eyes swept across the three without any trace, and he walked straight to Xue Mu. Xue Mugang sprinkled the tea powder into the boiling water center, and when Liu Qinghuan came over, he stopped his movements.
Liu Qinghuan was trying to greet him, and the Hu Ren teenager suddenly came out, looking at her with a surprised look: "This is Madam Hou ?! Really ... Urala!"
Liu Qing Huan chuckled and looked at him with some doubt: "Urala?"
Hu Renjun nodded in excitement, his eyes were particularly bright: "We call the most beautiful woman in our country."
Liu Qinghuan blinked and wondered, "What do you call the most handsome man?"
"Name it."
Liu Qinghuan: "..."
Maybe she should go and ask the girl.
"Hmm." Xue Mu pressed the flame on the charcoal and whispered. The Hu Renjun slipped his lips and returned to his original position. Liu Qinghuan looked at him with a smile on his face: "What's your name?"
"Yeah!" Said Hu Renqing proudly. "Is it the Chinese name I gave myself, isn't it brilliant?"
"Compared to your image, it is really brilliant."
He was particularly proud of being praised by Mrs. Hou.
Xue Mu asked Liu Qinghuan to sit opposite him, poured the freshly fried tea into the five celadon tea bowls in front of him, and handed a bowl to Liu Qinghuan: "May I have a taste of my fried tea?"
"Xie Houye." Liu Qinghuan took the tea bowl in his hand, and the foam on the face was thick and even. She sighed gently and took a small sip.
"how about it?"
Liu Qinghuan put down the tea bowl and replied, "Qing Huan doesn't know much about tea, but Hou Ye fried it well."
The girl in green dress snorted disdainfully, Liu Qinghuan looked up at her, and smiled slightly, "Do you think Hou Ye's tea is not good?"
"I think you're clever!" The girl frowned at her.
The smile on Liu Qinghuan's face deepened instead: "Exquisite words? So what you mean is that Hou Ye's fried tea is not good."
girl:"……"
She opened her mouth and wanted to say something. Xue Mu looked up at her, and she pursed her lips without saying a word. Xue Mu retracted her gaze and looked at Liu Qing with a smile: "Even if it is rhetorical, I like it."
Liu Qinghuan lowered her head shamefully, Xue Mu ticked her lips slightly and introduced her: "The three of them are under my command. I know you already. This is Nouyan, this is Tanguo."
Liu Qinghuan took another look at them, and asked, "Did I disturb Hou Ye's business?"
Xue Mu picked up a celadon tea bowl and shook her head: "Anyway."
Liu Qinghuan saw him bow his head to drink tea, and looked around, "But the other people stay in the room as much as possible, the better the secrecy. It's rare to see him like Hou Ye."
Xue Mu said: "The vision here is wide, and the surrounding environment is clear at a glance. It can be detected once someone approaches."
Liu Qing thought for a while and thought, "What if it lurks in the water?"
Xue Mu smiled: "Then he is very good at water."
Liu Qinghuan shut up. With Xue Mu's martial arts, if someone could potentially detect it in the water, then no matter how good your water is, he can also turn you into a corpse.
"By the way, is your attendant back?"
"not yet."
Xue Mu groaned and said, "I asked someone today, and Wuhou Jie, who was on duty last night, did not catch any suspicious people." 2k novel reading network
