The fenced courtyard is bathed in the morning light, with an old man and a young man sitting in it.

After listening to Eunuch Jia’s statement, Cui Xiaowan was silent, slightly unhappy, and leaned on the recliner:

"It's boring not to mention the emperor. Are there any poems in Chang'an City recently? You should know a lot of them in the imperial study every day, so read it to me."

Eunuch Jia knew Cui Xiaowan's temperament, and he didn't continue to nag for the past few years, and thought about it and said with a smile:

"There are a few songs, well... the wind lingers and the dust is gone..."

Cui Xiaowan sat up and smiled: "I have heard of this, it was written by Li Qingzhao."

Li Qingzhao...

Eunuch Jia was stunned for a moment, looked at the snowman next to him with dim eyes, and after a long time, he nodded:

"It seems that it was written by Li Qingzhao. That kid didn't lie..."

Cui Xiaowan looked at the neatly dressed snowman: "He did not lie to me. But he couldn't tell where Li Qingzhao was, and there were Su Shi, Tang Bohu, and Xin Qiji. He couldn't tell clearly, and the explanation he found was very far-fetched. Do you know him?"

"I know a little baby in the northwest. He even called you aunt..."

Cui Xiaowan was a little unhappy when she heard this: "I'm dead, I feel he's older than me. How can I call my aunt? He calls me a girl."

"He didn't say his name, nor did he ask your name?"

"I asked, I didn't tell him."

Cui Xiaowan raised her hand and pointed to the kitchen window: "He is very good at catching fish. He caught them all. I think he is interesting and wants him to stay for a few more days. But he knew that he just pretended not to understand, but he left... just like the people outside..."

Eunuch Jia chuckled: "Everyone can't help but you are, and so is he. I am the old slave. I will live my life in my life. You can go wherever you want, and stop whenever you want."

"snort……"

Cui Xiaowan leaned on the recliner, shaking, and was silent for a while: "Will the emperor arrest me back to the palace?"

Eunuch Jia thought for a while: "No, for emperors, you always want to cut off. You are dead, and it is difficult to explain why you were asked to pretend to die back then. According to the style of the emperor, the matter of reducing the vassal states is over. No matter whether you succeed or fail, you should die, avoid being used as 'evidence' and exposing the use of your younger brother. But after all, you are the daughter of the Cui family. The situation is unclear at this time, and the emperor can no longer have conflicts with the Cui family, so he has not taken any action. The old slave came over here, and it is also for this matter. He had to do something for him when he had a fight with Jia Yi and his son."

Cui Xiaowan showed some dissatisfaction on her cheek: "Why didn't the emperor kill me directly back then?"

"Oh, the method was made by Mr. Cui. If the tiger poison does not eat it, how could Mr. Cui let you die? Besides, you have to leave a way out of your way to do things, just like finding the antidote to the Dragon Lock Gu first to prevent things from getting out of control. If Song Yu really usurped the throne successfully, he would definitely destroy the Cui family. You are alive and are the only life-saving talisman of Cui, and it is impossible for you to die. But now, you are really useless."

"I'm not using me yet, what a dad..."

Cui Xiaowan's eyes were a little sad, and she stared at the sapling forest where hundreds of peach trees planted:

"When I was a child, my father was fine. He said that I could live in the peach blossom forest all my life. If I don't want to go out, I never have to go out. As a result, I put a painter in, made me look ugly, and then advised me to enter the palace... At that time, the lady of the Tang family had been selected as the queen. I asked him what happened. My father was vague. I knew that my father had changed and would definitely kill the lady of the Tang family, so I asked Jia Yi to inform the lady of the Tang family to run away quickly. In the end, it was indeed like that... There was also that Song Yu, who said in the letter that the palace would not choose me as the queen. The emperor, my father would listen to him. I am quite grateful to him. As a result, nothing was true. Afterwards, he came to apologize and said that he was powerless. Why did he talk big? There was also a few days ago that guy, who obviously wanted to stay for a few more days, ran away..."

The voice is soft, and all emotions are reflected on the surface. They are never concealed, but there is no hatred or complaint. They just like or dislike it simply, just like saying that this tree has grown crooked and that tree has grown shorter.

It is probably only Eunuch Jia who can communicate with Cui Xiaowan and understand her ideas in the world.

Eunuch Jia is nearly eighty years old and has seen all the rise and fall of an empire. From emperors, generals, ministers, concubines in the harem, civil and military officials in the court to civil and civil servants in the market, they basically see through life and death. They have long seen through the world and have also taken lightly. Cui Xiaowan has been in the world since she was born and has always looked at all living beings from an outsider's perspective. Although their experiences are completely different, their perspectives on things are the same.

Eunuch Jia held the water bowl and listened quietly. After dealing with the princes and generals for a long time, he still felt that the child was interested in speaking. He didn't have to worry about the meaning of the bends and turns behind him. He was especially considering the old man who was lying on the verge of his life.

The old and the young just sat in the yard and talked for a long time.

Cui Xiaowan met someone she wanted to talk to, and she was still very talkative. She talked aside all the people she had met in the past, and finally stopped on the man a few days ago:

"That guy also said that there is a big sea of ​​flowers at home, and he planted hundreds of flowers. There are some flowers in the world. The scenery is different all year round. Now it is wintersweet, camellia, and Clivia that can't be seen at first sight. I don't think he is a lie. Is there such a place in the world?"

Eunuch Jia smiled and nodded: "There is one I have heard of, but I have never been there either."

Cui Xiaowan thought for a while: "Then where I live in the future, otherwise the emperor would figure it out one day and send someone to kill me. It would definitely be useless for me to hide in the cellar."

When Eunuch Jia heard this, he hesitated a little: "That place is private, so it's not good for you to go..."

"That guy is pretty good. The sea of ​​flowers he planted must be messy. I borrow a small place to live in and help him grow flowers. If he doesn't appreciate it, we will come back."

"hehe……"

Eunuch Jia leaned his head and sighed, and stood up with his knees:

"That place is a bit far away, are you sure?"

"You'll be there when you walk slowly. I'm fine, you're fine, right?"

Eunuch Jia nodded. This is what the outsider is.

Cui Xiaowan stood up, took wooden bowls and chopsticks from the cupboard, then went to the house to get clothes and books, then closed the door, tied them to the black dog's neck with a small hemp rope, led them out of the fence, walked a few steps, and turned back:

"Is there anything else?"

Eunuch Jia looked around with his hands behind his back, shook his head and chuckled, and said, "I originally wanted to bury it in this beautiful place with beautiful mountains and rivers. Oh, I'm so busy..." He followed slowly.

Cui Xiaowan was carrying a package and holding a little black dog, walking briskly on the forest path:

"The vast sorrow of separation is slanting in the sun, and the whip is east and the end of the world.

Falling red is not a heartless thing, it turns into spring mud to protect flowers.

Wherever you go, you will be like mud wherever you go, and wherever you are buried, it will become mud, the same."

"I probably can't raise a few flowers like this old bone..."

"Get fatter."

"Wang-Wang-Wang-"

"well……"

The sound is getting farther and farther away.

The canyon hidden outside the world was completely quiet, and only a snowman in a white robe sat at the table, looking at the hundreds of peach trees outside the fence until the spring breeze was dawn, and the first tender bud was drawn...
