Return of the Swallow

The spring is just right, the new green stretches, the fresh air has a faint fragrance of flowers, the birds and insects are chirping near and far, and the scenery is pleasant and refreshing.

The female relatives are raised in the deep boudoir, and they naturally do not go outside the door on weekdays. Even if everyone has a garden in their home, the scenery created by artificial chiseling is naturally different from this kind of wildness.

What's more, the more you go up the gentle slope, the more kinds of rare flowers and plants, and the honor and pride to accompany the queen on a trip. Even an old lady like the old lady who usually visits a garden has to sit in a sedan chair. Feeling light and happy.

Hearing the arrival of the Queen, the inner servants who were guarding the garden had already greeted him, and when they got close, they saluted and wanted to lead the way for the Queen and her party.

"The Empress, please come here."

The queen put her hands lightly on her temples, her red lips slightly curled up, and said lazily, "You don't need to serve me here, don't disturb the interest of this palace."

The queen's reputation was well known, and the servants who dared to disagree, could only bow and step back, embarrassedly adorned behind the female relatives, and walked with the guards.

Walking slowly, admiring the scenery along the way, the old lady and other ladies were all surrounded by the queen, panting while walking, she never forgot to praise the scenery of this place, and praised the queen's favor one after another. There is only one in the world, and the queen's face is full of joy, and she does not hesitate to laugh.

Qin Yining helped the panting Sun to walk at the end of the line. Instead of flattering to the queen, she just admired the scenery and whispered to Sun, "Mother, how are you? Are you tired?"

"Fortunately, it's because of your good health that I've really been idle all these years." Sun shi panted and waved his hand with a smile.

Qin Yining smiled and said, "My mother followed me around the garden twice every morning, and my body will get better and better."

Hearing this, Mr. Sun shook his head and laughed. He raised his eyes and saw a dense peach forest not far away. He couldn't help but say in admiration, "Look at the peach blossoms in that place, it's really beautiful!"

Qin Yining, like everyone else, looked forward.

I saw a light pink warm cloud stretched out, and a large piece of radish branches with makeup and suitable shades.

Perhaps because there is an underground warm spring on the mountain, the peach blossoms at home have just bloomed, but the peach blossoms here are already in clusters, half-covering the blue sky.

A group of female family members moved forward along the path in the peach forest. The breeze was blowing, the hair and clothes were flying, and the petals were flying, dyeing everyone's body a little fragrance. I heard the gurgling sound of water on the side of the road, I looked down, I saw flowers falling into the water,

Qingbo is chasing the red.

After walking for dozens of steps, I suddenly saw a new cluster of pink walls and black tiles appearing in front of them. Behind the walls, there were vaguely carved eaves and ivory.

"Oh, I haven't seen such beautiful peach blossoms in a long time."

"Yeah, if it weren't for the empress's love, the courtiers and other officials would not have the chance to see such a fairyland-like scenery."

"Only the national beauty and beauty of the Queen is worthy of owning such a fairy palace."

...

The female family members were talking nonsense, and no one was loud, and no one deliberately talked to the Queen, but the voices were just right for the Queen to hear clearly.

The queen who was walking in the front smiled sweetly and walked forward proudly, and the female family members who were walking continued to whisper admiration and followed behind.

And the little maid, who was in charge of leading the way behind, was already pale.

After dozens of steps to the door, the female relatives looked up at the plaque in admiration, but saw the word "Ning Yuan" on the black lacquer plaque.

The queen was startled, and squinted at the palace servants beside her: "When did this palace's Changchun Garden change its name? Why doesn't this palace know about it?"

Everyone is also wondering, whispering.

The little maid stepped forward with a sad face and knelt down and kowtowed: "Go back to the Empress, this place is very spring garden, just now, I just took a fork in the road."

The female relatives were surprised and stopped talking.

The queen frowned and said coldly, "What? After walking for a long time, this place is not Changchun Garden? Why doesn't this palace remember that there is such a place on Changchun Mountain!"

The little maid knelt on the ground and shivered, just now he was about to lead the way, but the queen didn't let him wait in front of him!

The queen was also slightly embarrassed.

She is the queen, and she has to accompany the king every day. She has very few opportunities to accompany the emperor out of the palace occasionally. It is not easy to save relatives or travel.

Although Emperor Changchunyuan gave it to her, she only came to soak in the hot spring last year, and a group of people followed, so naturally she didn't need a queen to remember the way. Nowadays, it is only natural to think that there is only your own Changchun Garden on the mountain. Unexpectedly, the scenery you enjoy along the way is actually someone else's home.

"Dog slave, how did you serve!" The steward next to the queen kicked the inner servant's shoulder and rolled the person in a circle on the spot.

The inner servant kowtowed again and again, "The Queen spares your life, the Queen spares your life!"

The queen pursed her red lips impatiently, thinking about the fact that there are still a group of people behind her, she can't lose her identity as the mother of the country, she can only suppress her anger, and said lazily: "Forget it, it's not a big deal, it's also coming out left and right. If you are playing, since you are going the wrong way, just go back."

"What the Empress said is that the air here is fresh and the sun is shining brightly, and walking all the way talking, laughing and laughing is also enjoyable." Uncle Madam said with a smile.

When everyone heard the words, they immediately agreed, and the awkward atmosphere instantly eased.

The servant quickly got up and led the way.

The queen was in a better mood, and surrounded by a group of ladies, she returned along the Taolin road and walked to another slightly spacious bluestone road.

Only then did the queen discover that the road to Taolin that she had just walked was a newly opened dirt road on the ground, and the bluestone brick road here was the old road leading to Changchun Garden.

However, the good mood of the queen and the admiration of the ladies all faded as they moved forward.

With the fairy palace-like scenery and pearls in front, the road leading to Changchun Garden seems to be lackluster. The few begonias on the roadside are not bad, but it is not as impressive as the fairy palace-like "Ning Garden". .

And the ladies have just said all the praise and flattery. Facing this dry scene, they can only pull out words such as "quaint" and "elegant" out of conscience.

The queen's face became more and more ugly.

Until the gate of Changchun Garden, the queen's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Ningyuan's pink walls are brand new, the red doors are gorgeous, and the buildings in the courtyard can be seen to be brand new.

The red walls of Changchun Garden are half-old, the door is open, and the servants kneel to greet them. The style is there, but the half-old courtyard and the lackluster garden seen through the open door really made the queen deeply disgusted.

The queen frowned and reprimanded in a low voice, "How did you prepare to pick up the car! Where did that garden come from just now!"

Although the Queen's voice was low, the people behind her were not far away and could hear them clearly.

Seeing that the garden's house attendant was specially taken care of by Cao Guozhang, seeing the Queen's question, he hurried forward and whispered: "Back to the mother's words, the garden was previously ordered by the Guozhang. I said, please don't pay attention to that place."

The queen gritted her teeth, unable to express her anger, and finally only squeezed out a sentence: "I'm not afraid of overstepping!"

Saying so, he crossed the threshold first.

Seeing that the queen was displeased, the female family members all restrained their minds and followed, and did not dare to speak louder, for fear of angering the embarrassed queen.
