Chapter 564: Thoughts of Summer Flowers(1/2)
"Sister, sister!"
Zhongli Ruoshui put down his pen and looked up, and saw his sister Zhongli Ruoshui running in with two bunches of candied haws in her hand.
She arched her eyebrows, took a bunch of candied haws from Zhongli Ruohua's hand, and took a small lick.
A little sweet, a little cool.
"What's wrong?"
"Tonight, the Confucian Temple in Lizhou City will hold a Lantern Festival Festival. Do we want to go and watch the excitement?"
Zhongli Ruoshui was slightly startled.
Literary meeting?
Yes, every year during festivals such as the Mid-Autumn Festival and Lantern Festival, cultural gatherings are held in many places in Ningguo.
In the past, I liked to visit it very much, because many good poems were always born there inadvertently.
But now...
After Li Chenan's poems appeared, she suddenly found that she had no interest in this kind of literature.
It’s not that I look down upon the world’s literati.
But Li Chenan's poems are indeed like a majestic mountain, which makes students all over the world look forward to it and sigh.
At least no one can surpass him yet.
After reading his poems and essays, it is difficult to appreciate other poems and essays.
It's like being used to eating delicacies from mountains and seas, but having a hard time swallowing simple meals.
"Sister won't go."
Zhong Liruohua licked the candied haws, tilted his head and thought, "Then I won't go either."
"Don't you like that kind of excitement?"
Zhong Liruo's little mouth pouted: "Without my brother-in-law on stage to recite poems and compose poems, the excitement would be very boring."
"Right,"
Zhongli Ruohua approached her sister and asked in great anticipation: "Do you know where your brother-in-law is?"
"Do you know when he can come to Lizhou?"
Zhongli Ruoshui rubbed his sister's head and took a bite of the candied haws, "I don't know yet."
She turned her head and looked out the window at the white snow.
"He...it depends on when the Jiangnan matter will be resolved."
"But when he arrives in Lizhou, it will be the season of spring and flowers blooming."
Zhong Li was painting thoughtfully, then he raised his little hand and counted, "Spring is warm and flowers are blooming... Peach blossoms bloom in March and April... It's only the fifteenth day of the first lunar month... Wouldn't it take two or three months for him to arrive?
?”
"Absolutely. Why do you always care about him so much?"
Zhong Liruohua tilted his little head and thought carefully, "I want to compare with him how tall I am."
"...Is it different from me?"
"no the same!"
"Why?"
"Didn't my mother say it in her letter? If I could reach his shoulders, I would almost be able to marry him."
"..." Zhongli Ruoshui was speechless. She glared at her sister, "You are still young, go and practice martial arts. Don't think about whether you have it or not."
"Well, I'm going to practice martial arts right now."
Zhongli Ruoshui didn't expect that his sister would be so obedient today, so when he saw Zhongli Ruoshui taking it seriously, he turned around and walked out.
He also left a sentence——
"Grandpa Yuan said that all the masters from Shuzhou have gone to the south of the Yangtze River."
"I suspect they are not good for my brother-in-law!"
"I want to practice martial arts well and protect you and my brother-in-law in the future!"
When Zhongli Ruohua finished speaking, he had already arrived at the door.
She suddenly stopped and turned around, "Sister, I think instead of waiting here for my brother-in-law... we should wait until the end of February to go to Jiangnan. Maybe we can meet him on the road."
"how?"
"Not at all!"
"Why? Wouldn't you be able to meet your lover earlier this way?"
"He came to Shuzhou for one more thing."
"What's the matter?"
"Bring back the eldest son of the emperor!"
Zhong Liruohua pouted his lips and shrugged his shoulders, looking quite like a young adult:
"If you ask me, he would have become the emperor directly!"
"Make you the queen and me the concubine... There won't be any conflicts between us sisters in the harem, right?"
"I won't get jealous with you. The worst I can do is let him stay in your palace for two more nights..."
"Didn't you say everything will be happy with your family?"
"Let's give him a big family and a big empire!"
"Grandma is in the spirit of heaven, she will be happy, I guess the peach blossoms on the Peach Blossom Mountain will bloom more beautifully!"
Zhongli Ruoshui was slightly startled and glared at his sister:
"What have you been reading lately? Don't think about it!"
"What kind of nonsense is this? During Taizu's time, didn't he marry a third sister?"
"Don't bully me for not understanding!"
"As a sister, you can't be so selfish!"
"They say good things don't go to outsiders... My brother-in-law is so powerful, do you still want to have him all to yourself?"
Zhongli Ruohua glared at Zhongli Ruoshui without showing any signs of weakness, "Then Miss Xiao is not necessarily a fuel-efficient lamp!"
"What a fire, Miss Xiao may come from behind!"
"you……!"
Zhong Liruohua made a face and ran away.
Zhongli Ruoshui sighed slightly and sat in front of the window again.
Looking at the snow outside the window and biting the candied haws, I suddenly felt a little sour.
For a moment, she smiled slightly.
There was a hint of sadness in that smile.
Lifting the pen and putting it down on the paper——
There is dust in the eyes and the world is narrow,
There is nothing in my heart and my bed is wide!
It would be good if that Miss Xiao could accompany Chen An for the rest of her life.
…
…
Li Chenan, who was missed by Zhongli Ruoshui, is still in Zhouyuan at this moment.
Still in the courtyard of the main courtyard.
The snow is still there.
It's just that there was a bonfire lit in the patio.
There is a huge pot hanging on the bonfire.
Hot smoke was coming out of the pot, and the aroma of dog meat was wafting in the wind.
The lid of the coffin has not been lifted yet.
The cocoon on Yan Jidao's body became more brilliant and shrunk a lot.
For a moment, there seemed to be a crisp sound of "pop", and the dazzling cocoon suddenly burst.
But it didn't dissipate.
To be continued...
