Nangong Yue can also see that Xiao Luan's temperament is evacuated, and he will not think of letting Pian Pian attend the birthday banquet of King Zhennan for no reason. Therefore, the answer is self-evident, Xiao Luan's favor finally made this elegant heart bigger, and began to have some thoughts that should not be expected...

Nangong Yue narrowed her eyes slightly, remembering that King Zhennan came to her a few days ago and asked her to pay attention to girls of the right age, so that she could help Xiao Luan choose a marriage. Judging from Xiao Luan's current situation, it's really hard to choose the right girl. Since Xiao Luan is confused, he has to choose someone who knows the importance, otherwise, there will be chaos in his yard in the future!

Nangong Yue couldn't help but sighed, got up and went to the small study.

Nangong Yue sat down behind the red sandalwood desk and picked up a stack of rosters that were put aside. Queer cleverly began to grind ink on the side.

Nangong Yue looked at the roster in her hand, which contained the girls of the right age in the various mansions in the southern border. Que'er and Ying'er helped to sort them out, including ranking, age, temperament, and family style. Since ancient times, getting married has always been about the right family, but in the southern border, no matter how noble and honorable it is, the Zhennan Palace, the girls on this list are mostly girls from the residences of second- and third-rank generals. It took the two maids two days to make a list.

Nangong Yue took a look at it, focusing more on those mansions with stable family style.

Huh?

Nangong Yue's hand paused slightly, looked at one of the names, and asked, "The eldest girl from General Dingyuan's residence?"

General Dingyuan's mansion was surnamed Zhou, and the eldest girl of their mansion lived in seclusion. Nangongyue had been in the southern border for so long, but she had never heard of this eldest lady Zhou.

Que'er explained: "General Dingyuan shoulders two rooms, and Miss Zhou is the only daughter of the long room."

Shoulder pick two rooms?

Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows slightly. It was actually illegal to have two rooms on the shoulders. Few people with a little status would do this now. I didn't expect that the Dingyuan General's Mansion in Luo Yue City would actually have two rooms on the shoulders.

Nangong Yue asked, "Is General Dingyuan the first or second room?"

"It's the second house." Que'er had already gone to find out, "General Dingyuan's eldest brother died in battle 16 years ago. At that time, Mrs. Zhou was still alive, so he asked General Dingyuan to pick two houses and marry them separately. Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Wang is the daughter-in-law of the first house, and Mrs. Lu is the daughter-in-law of the second house. As far as the slaves know, Mrs. Lu and General Dingyuan are childhood sweethearts, and the two have a strong relationship. The second house now has two girls and two The sons are all from the Lu family, and the Wang family in the long room has only one daughter, Miss Zhou."

Nangong Yue nodded slightly and didn't say much. After all, it was someone else's house, and she couldn't control it.

She looked at the roster carefully, and every now and then Queer would come to explain a few words, and she would also make a few notes on it.

In a short while, the names of a few girls have been circled, and I plan to take a closer look at King Zhennan's birthday banquet.

And even if the man is satisfied, he has to look at the woman's meaning again. The people who get married are the best of the two surnames. Although Xiao Luan has a noble family background and status, generally speaking, in order to show respect for the woman, the son of the noble family is not allowed to take a concubine before marriage, but there is a serious concubine in Xiao Luan's house. . Many men don't think it's a problem to take a concubine, but women think differently... Xiao Luan's marriage still needs to be planned slowly.

At this moment, the sound of picking the curtains sounded, and Baihui walked in from outside, bowed her knees and said, "Prince Shizi, the old lady just sent someone over to say that he has acquired some excellent Longjing, please come over and have a cup of tea together."

Nangong Yue stood up, brushed her skirt, and said to Que'er, "I remember that I made some rose rice cakes in the kitchen today. The sweetness is moderate. You can get some, and I will give it to my grandfather."

Queer took the order and left, Baihui helped Nangongyue to straighten her temples a little, and pressed down her skirt, and said in a low voice: "Prince Concubine, the son is also listening to the rain pavilion."

Nangong Yue's eyes flashed, and she knew in her heart that it should be Guan Yubai who had something important to look for himself, so he would invite him in the name of Mrs. Fang.

Nangong Yue took Baihui to Tingyu Pavilion soon.

The little maid of Tingyu Pavilion led them to the octagonal pavilion in the backyard, and the breeze brought a faint scent of tea, which was fragrant and fragrant.

In the octagonal pavilion, Mrs. Fang and Guan Yubai in a wheelchair sat opposite each other across a stone table. On the stone table, in addition to the teapot and tea cup, there was also a torreya wood chessboard on which there were already some black and white chess pieces.

Guan Yu wore a moon-white straight robe, his black hair was tied up, and his slender fingers picked up a chess piece and dropped it, with a light-hearted leisure in his demeanor.

One old and one young are very leisurely, chatting and playing games.

Xiao Si was sitting on a big tree next to him, boredly sitting on a sturdy branch, and keenly noticed that someone was coming, immediately looked at Nangong Yue and the others, then immediately withdrew his gaze and looked up at the sky.

"Ayue!" When Mrs. Fang saw Nangongyue coming, she greeted with a smile, "Come here quickly. Marquis Anyi gave me some good Longjing tea, and it's Mingqian tea. Come over and comment on it."

There is a saying: "Before the rain is the top grade, before the Ming Dynasty is the treasure". Before the Ming Dynasty, Longjing tea has always been a rare commodity, and it is also said that it is as expensive as gold.

"Then I will be honored by my grandfather today." Nangong Yue said with a smile. She greeted Mrs. Fang and Guan Yubai, and then sat down beside Mrs. Fang.

Grandpa Fang knew that Guan Yubai had something important to discuss, so he had already sent away all the maids in Tingyu Pavilion, so Baihui took over to make tea for Nangong Yue.

The green tea leaves slowly stretch, swim, and change in the hot water, and finally sink slowly. The fine white porcelain teacup just sets off the green and bright tea soup, and the tea fragrance is overflowing.

Good weather and a good cup of tea are really a great thing in the world.

The three of them sipped tea and chatted about tea, until the tea cup was mostly empty, and then they got down to business.

"Little Four..."

Guan Yu screamed in vain, and Xiao Si immediately appeared in the octagonal pavilion like a ghost. He took out two cloth bags, one green and one gray, and unfolded them separately.

Among them, a few dried plants were placed on the cyan handkerchief, and on the other side were some dried mud on the gray handkerchief.

Nangong Yue's eyes naturally fell on the blue veil, she looked at it intently, and said, "Salthorn grass, silver snake root grass, poison hemlock, black brain grass..." Nangong Yue repeated several times. The name of the plant, her eyes half-squinted thoughtfully, "These are the plants next to the swamp, right?" She looked at the gray handkerchief, did she say...

Guan Yubai nodded and pointed at the mud on the gray veil: "Prince Concubine, you guessed right, these muds were taken from a swamp." After speaking, his slender fingers moved to the few places. A dry plant, "and these plants were picked from near that swamp."

In a previous life, Nangong Yue accompanied her grandfather Lin Jingchen to travel all over the country, but she didn't have much contact with the swamp, and only knew the dangers and horrors of the swamp from books. After pondering for a while, she said again: "Silver snake root grass, poison hemlock and black brain grass are all poisons... Could it be that the miasma in this swamp is highly poisonous?" Nangong Yue wondered while looking at the official with questioning eyes. Yubai and Xiaosi.

Part of the reason why she would guess so is also because she had seen from the "Southern Border Geography" that the swamps in the southern border were densely covered with miasma, so she sent a large amount of miasma medicine to the army. However, poisonous miasma and ordinary miasma are two different things.

Judging from the plants brought by Guan Yubai, the miasma in this swamp is probably very ferocious.

The corners of Guan Yu's white lips curled into a shallow smile, and he nodded slowly: "The miasma in this swamp is indeed extremely poisonous, but all things interact with each other, so I think maybe we can use the plants around the swamp to defuse the miasma. , do you think you can give it a try?"

Nangong Yue lowered her head and looked at the dry plants on the blue veil. The so-called miasma is the poisonous gas generated by the decay of animal and plant corpses in the swamp, and its origin is the animals and plants near the swamp. hope.

Nangong Yue frowned slightly and said, "Young Master Guan, I can go back and give it a try. It's just that if there are fresh swamp mud and plants, maybe I'll be more confident."

Guan Yubai nodded slightly and said, "Unfortunately, it's a bit far from Luoyue City. ... I'll let people try other methods and try to send some fresher ones back."

Although Nangong Yue knew that Guan Yubai would not do meaningless things, she couldn't help but ask, "Is this antidote in a hurry?"

Guan Yubai nodded slightly and said, "It has something to do with the next battle, it's best to do it as soon as possible." He paused and said, "If possible, it is better for the prince to visit Huiling City in person."

Go to Huiling City...Isn't it possible to see Yi?

Nangong Yue moved in her heart, but immediately dismissed her thoughts.

She glanced at Mrs. Fang without a trace. There was Mrs. Fang in the palace who needed her to take care of her. Before Ayi left, she entrusted her grandfather to her. How could she go out at will...

Grandpa Fang didn't notice the change in Nangong Yue's expression. He was very moved by Guan Yubai's proposal. The grandson Xiao Yi was out on the expedition, and several months passed in the blink of an eye. Even if the overall situation is fixed now, it may take another year and a half to expel Nan Liang completely. If this goes on, isn't his great-grandson far away? Indefinite? !

He once heard a saying from a foreign businessman from Nanyang: If the mountain does not come, I will go to the mountain.

Since the grandson can't come back, wouldn't it have the same effect when the grandson's daughter-in-law goes to the grandson? !

The more Mr. Fang thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was really good. He smiled and narrowed his eyes, secretly thinking about how to convince his grandson-in-law.

At this time, Thrush walked around the room and came over in a hurry.

After she came over and bowed to a few people, she lowered her voice and said in Nangong Yue's ear: "Prince Prince, Miss Qiao Biao came to be a guest today. I went to the small garden in front with the three girls just now..."

Small garden... Nangong Yue raised her brows. The duckweed in Yuanxin Lake had grown too dense recently. To avoid accidents, she ordered the small garden to be temporarily sealed to get rid of the duckweed. Speaking of which, this small garden is only separated from the front yard by a wall, and the female family members of the house seldom go there for a walk and enjoyment, so she has no worries about sealing it up.

Thrush continued: "The old woman who guards the gate in the small garden originally wanted to persuade the third girl and the first lady to go to the back garden, but the two girls insisted on going to the small garden to put paper kites. Come and tell the Empress Dowager."

Nangong Yue pondered for a moment, the palace is huge, even if the small garden in front is sealed, there are other gardens to go to, especially the back garden is more spacious and the scenery is more beautiful, a paper kite is always enough. What do they have to do in the small garden?

After thinking about it, she still instructed: "There are too many duckweeds on Yuanxin Lake, and they cover the lake. If the third girl and the first girl fall into the lake, it will not be beautiful. Baihui, Thrush, you go and see Look."

"Yes, Concubine Shizi."

The two maids led the order in unison, went to the entrance of the courtyard, and let the old woman who came to report lead the way.

The old woman breathed a sigh of relief secretly. Concubine Shizi always gave clear rewards and punishments. What she was most afraid of was that Concubine Shizi blamed her for not keeping the door well and took her job. Now it seems that she should have escaped this catastrophe.

Baihui and her party hurriedly went to the small garden...

At the same time, an eagle, a butterfly, and two colorful paper kites have been released into a blue sky and white clouds by the two maids.

One of the blue-clothed maids saw that the butterfly paper kite was flying steadily, and hurriedly handed the spool in her hand to the third girl Xiao Ni. Xiao Ni held the spool in one hand to release the line, and moved the paper kite line with the other hand from time to time, a crisp laughter overflowed from her cherry lips.

"Cousin Lan, look! My paper kite is flying so high!" Xiao Ni raised her head and stared at the butterfly paper kite in the air.

"Cousin Ni's paper kites fly much higher than mine. It turns out that my cousin is also a master at putting kites." Qiao Ruolan enthusiastically agreed, and took the spool handed by the maid.

Xiao Ni smiled shyly: "It's the wind direction and wind today that is just right for the paper kite."

Qiao Ruolan said with a smile: "Cousin Ni, don't be humble, I think your paper kite is well drawn and exquisitely done, but Cousin Chi made it for you?" The young master Xiao Ji is also Xiao Ni's older brother.

Xiao Ni said with a smile: "My previous paper kite was broken, and the third brother gave me another one."

"Cousin Chi, he must do his best in everything." Qiao Ruolan covered her mouth and chuckled, "Cousin Ni, I heard that cousin Chi has been praised by his husband for his recent homework, saying that even if he is a scholar. More than enough."

Although the Zhennan Palace is a family of military generals, the second and third rooms do not undertake the family business, and the children can only rely on themselves to make a success. The second wife has been a widow for many years. Naturally, Mrs. Qiu did not want her son to study martial arts and use his life to fight for the future, so he let his son concentrate on studying literature. The third son of Xiao, Xiao Ji, is also quite talented, so although he is young, he is quite good at learning.

"The third brother said that he intends to try next year..." Xiao Ni's face showed a hint of pride. Sooner or later, their second room will be separated from each other, and in the future, only by relying on the elder brother can they support.

Qiao Ruolan suggested unintentionally: "Cousin Ni, I heard from my mother that there is a noble person in the capital, who is very good at learning. You can also ask cousin Ji to ask for advice, don't miss the opportunity."

"Cousin Lan, you're talking about Marquis Anyi, right?" Xiao Ni smiled clearly, "The day before yesterday, my uncle came forward and asked Marquis Anyi to instruct the third brother on his homework. After the third brother came back, he praised me for a long time. Praise that Marquis Anyi like a god..."

Qiao Ruolan's eyes lit up, and there was a hint of blush on her face. She smiled and said, "I also heard that Marquis Anyi is a genius of the sky, and it seems that the rumors are true."

"Yeah." Xiao Ni nodded excitedly, "Fortunately, Hou Anyi lived in Qingyunwu during this period of time, and the third brother can often go to ask for teaching. I think his homework will definitely improve by leaps and bounds."

Qingyunwu... Qiao Ruolan's eyes flashed, and she didn't speak any more. She looked up at the eagle paper kite in the sky, and skillfully put up the spool.

The eagle paper kite immediately flew higher and higher, and unknowingly moved closer to Xiao Ni's butterfly paper kite.

Xiao Ni gave a low voice and said hurriedly: "Cousin Lan, be careful, our two paper kites are going to be entangled..."

Qiao Ruolan was also flustered, she hurriedly pulled the spool to hide, but for some reason, the two paper kites kept getting closer and closer.

After a while of confusion, Qiao Ruolan exclaimed, and saw that the paper kite's line broke, and the eagle paper kite escaped from control and flew into the blue sky like an eagle spreading its wings...

During the dodge just now, the two had already reached the edge of the garden, separated by a wall, the outer courtyard, and the paper kite naturally flew to the outer courtyard along the wind and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"My paper kite!" Qiao Ruolan whispered angrily and frowned, "This paper kite was given to me by my father, so I can't lose it."

Xiao Ni handed the spool to the blue-clothed maid, looked at Qiao Ruolan at a loss, and said, "Cousin Lan, don't worry. I'll find some old ladies to find it for you..."

"Cousin Ni, why is it so troublesome!" Qiao Ruolan interrupted Xiao Ni anxiously, "It's just outside the garden, I can just pick it up myself." She turned to the maid in Tsing Yi beside her and said, "Doukou, come with me. Go and pick up the paper kite."

One master and one servant hurriedly left, Xiao Ni frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong. Although the palace was heavily guarded, there should be no foreign men in the outer courtyard who collided with Qiao Ruolan, but there were also many guards and servants walking around, and Qiao Ruolan did not leave the cabinet. The girl who walks around in the outer courtyard is always reckless.

Xiao Ni hurriedly shouted, "Cousin Lan, stop here, or..."

Qiao Ruolan didn't seem to hear Xiao Ni's voice, but her footsteps were a little faster.

Xiao Ni was a little overwhelmed and was about to chase when Baihui and Thrush came over under the leadership of the old lady.

Seeing that Qiao Ruolan was not there, Thrush's heart froze for a while, but he respectfully bowed his knees and bowed to Xiao Ni, and then asked, "Miss San, I heard that Miss Qiao Biao also came here to put the paper kite, I don't know what she is now. Where did you go?"

Xiao Ni's maid hurriedly recounted what had happened. Baihui and Thrushi looked at each other, but they were nothing more than a paper kite. Even if the thread was broken and flew away, could the maid of the palace not help you find her and wanted her as a guest? Going on a rampage in the palace to find it?

No matter what, Baihui and Thrush hurriedly chased after them.

From the small garden to the front yard, there is a small gate, which is guarded by a woman on weekdays, but because the entire small garden has been sealed off for the past two days, the woman who guards the gate is also a little slack. When Baihui and Thrushi arrive at the small gate , Qiao Ruolan's master and servant have already left the inner courtyard, and the old woman pointed the direction nervously, saying that she was heading to the northeast of the palace...

An idea popped up in Baihui's mind, and before she could catch it, it disappeared in a flash.

She didn't think much, and continued to chase with Thrush.

After passing through several verandas, bypassing the cave door for several months, and walking through a bluestone path, Baihui suddenly slowed down and finally thought of it.

This direction seems to be heading towards—

Qingyunwu!

Turning around again, Baihui saw Qiao Ruolan's somewhat familiar back from a distance. Qiao Ruolan wore a purple-red robe and walked to the stone arch bridge on the lake in front of Qingyunwu.

"Sister Baihui," Thrush pointed at Qiao Ruolan and hurriedly said, "It's Biao Biao girl!"

Baihui raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking to herself: Qiao Ruolan should not be right to the son...

Thrush raised his brows thoughtfully, and had the same guess, and said, "Sister Baihui, is it possible that Miss Qiao Biao is thinking... thinking..."

At this time, a warm summer wind blew over, making the bamboo leaves on the other side of the lake rustled.

Baihui brushed her hair against the wind, and said with a half-smile, "The wind blows from the southeast today, but this kite has fallen to the northeast..."

Thrush blinked and sighed, "Perhaps I grew wings and flew here."

Anyway, Qiao Ruolan's destination has been determined, Baihui and Thrush are not in a hurry. Both of them knew better, but An Yihou was not in Qingyunwu at the moment. It was Qiao Ruolan's shameful thoughts, and he was afraid that he would return without success.

At this time, the two of them saw a cyan figure walking over from the other side of the stone arch bridge.

Thrush was a little unfamiliar, but Baihui recognized that it was Feng Xing.

The corners of Baihui's lips curved up slightly, with a popular temperament, Miss Qiao Biao would not have thought about a better thing today...
