Chapter 878: A casual spring fragrance

Zhu Gaoxu didn't do a few things all day, but he felt very tired at dusk.Perhaps in a restless mood, I had too many thoughts, which was uselessly to waste a lot of energy.

No news about the navy came.

It is normal. What happens thousands of miles apart cannot be transmitted back to the capital in a short time.

He left the court and returned to the harem. When he left Rouyi Hall, he did not forget to instruct the eunuch Wang Gui: No matter what time, as long as there is news from the navy, report to me immediately.

Wang Gui bowed and agreed with a whisk.

Today Zhu Gaoxu should go to see Yao Ji. He followed the order and ordered the eunuchs carrying the sedan chair to go to the Xianfei Palace.

The main building of Xianfei Palace is similar to other palaces in the East Six Palaces and the West Six Palaces.

However, some small pavilions, corridors, flowers, plants, mountains and rocks are different; each concubine will also make different arrangements according to her own preferences.

The imperial concubine is the owner of every palace, and on their own territory, they can roughly do whatever they want.

When Yao Ji welcomed him to the bedroom, Zhu Gaoxu was inadvertently attracted the attention of the scene in the palace.

Of course, it is not the first time Zhu Gaoxu has come here. He is quite familiar with the things here, but he usually doesn’t care much about the decorations and only cares about Yao Ji’s beauty.

Today I pay attention to those fine things.

A quiet and elegant atmosphere came to my face, and there was a familiar fragrance in the air.

Zhu Gaoxu saw that there were finely woven semi-transparent straw curtains hanging on the viewing window on the north wall. He remembered that there were also straw curtains in the East Warehouse, so he walked over.

Next to the window is a wooden table with quaint study objects on it, as well as an open book and a confiscated rice paper.

That book actually was "The Daily Records of the King of Han", and Yao Ji seemed to be still reading it today.

Zhu Gaoxu glanced over the books and looked back at her.

Yao Ji just looked at him with a smile.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at the words on the paper again, which was a poem copied by Yao Ji himself: After the new rain in the empty mountains, autumn comes late.

The bright moon shines among the pines, and the clear spring flows on the rocks.

The bamboo is noisy and the washing girl is returning, and the lotus moves down the fishing boat.

The spring flowers are at will, and the princes can stay.

He simply sat down and carefully looked at the handwriting, feeling that his impetuous mood seemed to have calmed down a lot.Yao Ji's handwriting looks very comfortable, graceful and neat. Just looking at the handwriting can make people think of beauty.

nice.Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but blurt out.

Yao Ji's voice said softly: It's far worse than the characters of the priest. The characters of the priest are of the style of famous masters and have a strong brushwork.My name cannot stand the meticulous taste, it is just to entertain yourself.

She made some sense. The teacher that Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang found for the emperor's grandsons back then were all great scholars who came from Jinshi, and they must not be the style of ordinary private school teachers. Yao Ji was very knowledgeable and had a very appropriate speech.

Zhu Gaoxu shook his head and said: I like it very much. Without a mood, I can't write such clean and beautiful words.

Really?Yao Ji's voice was slightly coquettish.

Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said yes, reached out to hold her smooth horns, and looked up at her.

After Yao Ji gave birth to the birthday boy, her breasts became more plump.

A soft silk long dress made her figure look more attractive. Inside the thin silk material of the outer coat, the fair and smooth skin has a wonderful color.

Her skin is naturally very good, and she is indeed not as good as others.

The beautiful and charming face, red lips and white teeth, and a smile made Zhu Gaoxu feel a little dazed for a moment.

In such an elegant and quaint palace, the hostess is so gorgeous. Zhu Gaoxu didn't feel abrupt at all, and it was also impossible to say why.

Perhaps it is natural to think of images like the valley orchid.

Zhu Gaoxu said casually: We have known each other for many years, and I think Xianfei is a worldly person.

What is joining the world?Yao Ji still asked him softly with a smile on her face.

Zhu Gaoxu pondered: Probably... he does not ignore utilitarianism, he cares about grievances, cares about other people's eyes, his emotions may fluctuate greatly, and he has some competitive spirit.

Yao Ji nodded slightly.

Zhu Gaoxu continued: But I think the Virtue is very sluggish, for example, he can copy poetry and essays quietly.

Yao Ji smiled as if she was seeking credit: I took care of the flowers and plants in the middle of the corridor behind me.

Zhu Gaoxu said: It's Ah. If you care about utilitarianism, ordinary people don't have this state of mind.

Yao Ji's smile gradually faded, and after a while, he murmured: I grew up in the countryside, and there were not as many people in the countryside as the capital, so I could only accompany flowers, plants, trees, chickens, ducks and poultry.But my adoptive father and mother are all ordinary people. For the sake of the children, Daoyan's money, and the women outside, they are full of grudges and plots.Perhaps this is the reason why I can be both born and entered the world?

Well... Zhu Gaoxu nodded and looked at her again and said, it makes sense.

Yao Ji whispered again: The first time I entered this palace was to be a palace maid. Doing some dirty and tiring chores every day is simply a waste of time and no expectations. Then he was sent to Jiming Temple to be a nun, which was worse than in the palace, but he hadn't been there all those years. Now that I have become a virtuous concubine, I am guarding a person like the emperor, what else can I panic?

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu laughed and said: It's very real.

Yao Ji observed Zhu Gaoxu carefully with bright eyes, and even put his finger on Zhu Gaoxu's cheek, gently stroked the skin under his eyes. She pointed to the book on the table and said: I believe that nothing can make things difficult for the Lord, and no one can defeat you, everything will be fine.

Seeing that her eyes were filled with confidence, Zhu Gaoxu was suddenly greatly encouraged.

He nodded vigorously and responded happily.

Then he reached out to wrap his arms around Yao Ji's flexible waist and let her get close to him.

Yao Ji seemed to feel his body change, and suddenly turned around gently and broke free from Zhu Gaoxu's arms. Her figure was very clever and smooth.

She turned around and said with a smile: I still have to have a meal later.

Zhu Gaoxu's emotions were slightly ups and downs due to her behavior.He felt as if there was an invisible string in the air, and he was touched by Yao Ji.

Yao Ji said: I will make a new cup of tea for the emperor.

Her figure shuttles through the quaint palace, busy with the trivial matters of making tea.

She talked some gossip from time to time, and heard from the eunuchs who sent her that this was a new tea tribute from the Sichuan Provincial Administration Commissioner. It was made of tender buds that were picked only this year. I have tried it very delicious.

Zhu Gaoxu didn't care much, so he walked at the door leading to the north corridor.At this time, the fragrance of flowers outside became stronger, and he casually said: It smells so good.

Yao Ji turned around and said: There are some jasmine flowers planted in the middle of the corridor.

Yes, it's the fragrance of jasmine flowers.Zhu Gaoxu suddenly said.

He felt that the fragrance was very familiar as soon as he came in, and he was a little confused and didn't expect it.

But why is the fragrance of jasmine so familiar?

He suddenly remembered something.

Zhu Gaoxu walked out and saw that the white flowers in the yard were blooming in full bloom, so he picked some flowers and put them in his left hand's heart.

He returned to the palace, took the jasmine flowers and said: The bud tea you mentioned should be green tea, try adding some jasmine petals.

Yao Ji said: I'll take a spring water to soak it.

Yao Ji made tea in the teapot and soaked the jasmine flowers in it.

After waiting for a while, she poured half a cup of tea into a blue and white tea bowl and handed it to Zhu Gaoxu.

Zhu Gaoxu took a sip, then kept nodding and said: It's this taste.

Flower tea has not yet been released, and Zhu Gaoxu has drunk the first sip of flower tea in the Ming Dynasty.

Green tea itself has a very obvious but relatively single fragrance, which is faintly crispy; coupled with the more obvious jasmine fragrance, the two flavors are very well matched, giving the elegant tea a rich style.

You can try it too.Zhu Gaoxu said.

Yao Ji also poured half a bowl herself, took a sip of red lips next to the small ceramic bowl, and smiled: It smells good.

Zhu Gaoxu said: Concubine Xian invented a new tea. I will give you a name, which is called "Piaoxue"?

The scene in the teapot is very similar to the name.I got it by chance.Yao Ji smiled and pointed to the corridor outside, whether it was tea or name.

At this moment, the rustling sound from outside, followed by the noise gradually increased, and there was a noise between the quiet palaces, and the sudden heavy rain became more and more fierce.

Zhu Gaoxu didn't think much about it, and walked out of the palace with a teacup.

He stood on the eaves and watched the jasmine flowers hitting the yard and other flowers and plants, and the branches and leaves were ravaged in the wind and rain, shaking violently.

The heavy rain became like a pouring pot, flying in the wind, floating under the eaves, wetting the hem of Zhu Gaoxu's robe.

Water accumulates between glazed tiles and falls to the ground like a spring along the eaves.

He raised his head and looked up at the already dim gray sky.

At this time, he felt a soft and warm touch on his back, and Yao Ji gently hugged him behind him.The two stood quietly on the eaves together, watching the rain.

It was very stuffy early this morning, and I predicted a heavy rain in the morning, but it didn't happen.Zhu Gaoxu said casually.

Yao Ji's voice snorted in his ear, as a response.

Zhu Gaoxu said: Even if it rains heavily in the capital, it cannot make people feel something terrible.

Yao Ji said softly: I think it’s scary, but fortunately the emperor is here tonight.

Zhu Gaoxu turned his head and looked at her and smiled in response.

Yao Ji's eyes turned upwards and said, "It's like a squeezed smile."

Zhu Gaoxu had no choice but to say: After the deposit, I rarely think about anything else.

Yao Ji said kindly: It doesn’t matter.

Zhu Gaoxu picked up the tea bowl in his hand and took another sip.

The tea bowl was put down for a distance and it seemed to be frozen in the air, but he kept staring at the rain curtain in the air.

Apart from the rain, the gray sky has nothing, and is gray and empty.
