Chapter 680 Picking up someone on the road

Thank you, it doesn’t matter whether the goods are good or not, I’ve accepted this intention.”

Murong Hui took the hand stove cover and looked carefully. She found that the stitches were fine and tight. It seemed that it took a lot of effort, which made her feel warm.

"Three years after my mother passed away, my father had already reunited. If I hadn't entered the palace as a companion, my brother and I would have been even more sad at home, so everything would be blessed by His Highness."

Xu Qing looked grateful. She was in an awkward situation in Duke Xu's Mansion, and her mother died early. Her father still had several concubines. She later continued to do so. No wonder she developed such a cautious and cautious temperament.

"If you have any trouble in the future, just tell me and Xiaoyue that if we can help, we will do our best to help."

Murong Hui smiled, then pointed out the window and said, "Look, we are about to collapse."

Xu Qing responded quickly and looked out the window. She saw endless silvery white under the blue sky outside the window. From a distance, she looked like a painting.

"The exquisiteness here is indeed not comparable to that in the capital, it is really eye-opening."

Perhaps as if it was affected by this vast sky, Murong Hui felt that her mood had become much more open.

Madam Huang originally wanted to remind Murong Hui and the others not to lift the curtain. This behavior was too unlucky.

However, after a glance around, she found that there was no one around except for their group, so she simply stopped disturbing their interest.

The few of them were tired of watching, so they lay on a couch to chat. After a while, Murong Hui was a little drowsy and the carriage slowly stopped.

"What happened?"

After rubbing his eyes, Murong Hui got up and asked in a low voice.

"It's not a big deal to have someone fainted on the road blocking his way."

Madam Huang went to take a look and said respectfully to Murong Hui.

"I'm afraid it's the people living nearby, let's see how he fainted?"

Murong Hui rubbed her shoulders and felt that her bones were lying down were so she simply got out of the carriage and walked outside.

Xu Qing and Gao Ziyue also followed curiously. The three of them walked to the fainting person and looked at him curiously.

"This man is still carrying a sword. Is he a knight?"

Gao Ziyue heard from the people in their caravan that the caravan would meet some people from the world on weekdays. These people have their own rules and do not take the imperial court seriously.

"You are afraid you have read too much. Your Highness, please don't worry about this person."

Xu Qing was afraid that Murong Hui would get into trouble, so she hurriedly said in a low voice.

"Why don't you care? This man might be a hero. When he is injured, let him dance a piece of sword for us before letting him go!"

Gao Ziyue jumped and giggled. As soon as she was halfway through laughter, she saw Madam Huang looking at her with a verge of face, her eyes almost spitting out of fire. She was so scared that she quickly closed her mouth.

"You're afraid you're crazy."

Xu Qing reached out and pointed her forehead, and said in shock.

"This man has multiple knife wounds on his body and has lost too much blood. I'm afraid he will be out of help."

The female doctor accompanied her to check it out and then reported respectfully to Murong Hui.

"Hold him to his life with a ginseng. At least he is still alive. It's not good to throw him here. When you arrive at the village, you will treat him carefully. If it doesn't work, you can find a place to bury him for life."

After Murong Hui finished speaking, she didn't even look at him, then turned around and returned to the sedan chair. Soon after, the carriage continued to move forward and soon arrived at the village.

The village head had been waiting at the door for a long time, and his face was a little blue when he was cold.

"After you settle that person, you can go back. You don't have to follow him anymore, just go back."

Murong Hui got off the carriage, gave him some rewards, and sent them all to leave.

"I heard that the blanket that Your Highness, the father, asked me to bring is from the Gentiles, and it is just right to make the bed with it."

Gao Ziyue ordered people to bring in three thick vermilion blankets and said with a smile.

Murong Hui reached out and touched her and found that the blanket looked like wool. It looked pretty good, so she asked someone to spread it on her.

"This room hasn't been inhabited for a long time, and it's not cold yet, it's pretty good."

Xu Qing was the oldest among the three, so she deliberately inspected the entire house before she came back with confidence.

"Yesterday, the Empress ordered someone to burn this place. I think it was because it was burned all day yesterday, so it was so warm today."

"The Queen treats you as a biological mother, which is really enviable."

Xu Qing lost her mother for many years, and it is hard to say how much of her stepmother's work was done in the obviously unsatisfactory marriage before, so she became more and more envious of Murong Hui and Gao Ziyue.

"Yes, I'm afraid no one in this world is better than the Queen and the Emperor."

Murong Hui smiled, and the one I remembered in her mind was indeed the one who taught her to trim her flower branches step by step.

The person who really brought her without reservation has completely disappeared from the dust of history. In a few years, I am afraid that no one will remember him except her.

"What is your Highness thinking? It's time to have lunch."

Madam Huang came over at this time and interrupted Murong Hui's thoughts. Murong Hui hurriedly came to her senses, got up and walked towards the small living room with everyone.

This house was obviously decorated specially. There were white vases on the table, and a few red plums were inserted in the vase, which looked quite unique.

"There is no plum blossom forest in this farm, where does the plum branch come from?"

Gao Ziyue tricked with the plum branch curiously, and confirmed that it was true, so she asked curiously.

"The imperial village next to it belongs to the Ling Palace. I heard that King Ling planted a ten-mile plum forest in the imperial village for the sake of Princess Ling. Every year when the plum blossoms bloom, the mountain is full of red and looks very beautiful."

When Madam Huang said this, her tone was not fluctuating, as if she was telling a fictional story.

"Mrs. Xu also came to attend the Red Plum Banquet back then. After returning, he praised him and said that Princess Ling and Prince Ling were really in love with each other."

Xu Qing also nodded, as if she suddenly remembered it, and then she suddenly laughed after saying that.

She rarely couldn't stop her expression, her eyes full of mocking.

If she had been to others, she might not have shown such a look. But not long ago, Princess Wanyi had someone to use her mother's relics to humiliate her. This incident will never be forgiven for her in this life.

Therefore, after knowing Princess Ling’s current fate, she was not sympathetic at all, and even wanted to mock her a few words.

"Then Merlin is not far from here, so why don't we go and watch it too."

Gao Ziyue was not in the mood to pay attention to those love stories. What she was even more curious about was the grand scene of the plum blossom forest.

"Yes, Shili Meilin is not even in the palace, so it's rare to come and have a look."

Murong Hui nodded and said in agreement.

Madam Huang was originally a little opposed, after all, the area of ​​this imperial village is very large, and even if it is inside the village, it will take an hour to take a carriage.

But since Your Highness wants to see, such a scenery is indeed rare, so she had to nod and said, "Your Highness is exhausted today. It is better to wait until we go there tomorrow morning. The red plums in the morning, coupled with the white snow on the ground and the green pines in the distance, even in Jiangnan, it is difficult to have a beautiful scenery that matches it."

Madam Huang had heard of this place for a long time, but she had never been there. Seeing Murong Hui and others so interested, she had to say patiently.

After hearing this, everyone nodded quickly, thinking about what clothes to wear tomorrow, and soon they pulled the topic away.

"Your Highness, bring more hand stoves, it's a bit cold outside."

Qingyue was also somewhat expectant and said quickly.

"That's right. Why not take a few to explore the way? Maybe we can still sit in the plum tree and cook some tea, which is also a kind of enjoyment."

Murong Hui couldn't help but feel that it was a very wise choice to live here.

Several palace ladies responded quickly, but they didn't dare to continue talking. Otherwise, when Murong Hui had any more ideas, they would probably have to do a lot of work.

The few people took the bus all morning and were a little tired, so they went back to their room to rest early.

The next morning, a few people used breakfast and drove towards Meilin.

The plum forest happened to be at the junction of the two imperial villages. Even if you don’t have to go to the village next to the Lingwang Mansion, you can still enjoy a large area of ​​plum blossoms.

The three of them got off the carriage and saw the plum trees all over the mountains. Xu Qing, who was the quietest on weekdays, couldn't help but widen her eyes.

"Your Highness waited for a moment, and I wanted to paint the beautiful scenery and take it back to enjoy it."

As she said that, she asked someone to prepare painting tools and carefully painted at Mei Lin. In terms of the three of them's talent in painting, Xu Qing was the strongest.

Moreover, Xu Qing is very patient, with meticulous paintings and a bit of distant artistic conception. Even the Master who went to the study room praised her several times.

But she acts low-key and doesn't like to steal the limelight from others. Therefore, except for a few who are close, no one else knows that her painting level is so good.

"Then let's make tea first, how about we taste tea together later?"

Gao Ziyue shoveled the snow on the ground and said with a smile.

"Go and lay a few pieces of cloth under the plum tree and bring some petals back later. I also promised the Queen that she would make some plum blossoms and bring them back to her."

Murong Hui nodded, then smiled and became busy. Soon, with the help of the palace servants, the two of them cooked the tea.

Xu Qing was very focused on painting. When the two of them walked up to her, she still didn't notice it and was still painting seriously.

Little pieces of Luoying were depicted in her writing, and soon they were done.

"You're simply putting Merlin into the painting. She's so beautiful. No, you have to draw a pair for me, I want something different."

Gao Ziyue was a little stunned when she saw it, and pulled Xu Qing's arm excitedly, shouting like a coquettish voice.

Xu Qing always treated her as a sister, but seeing that she wanted this painting so much, she naturally responded.

"I have a suggestion. Why don't we draw ourselves into the painting type?"

Murong Hui raised her head and said with a sudden whim.
