Chapter 15 The Breeze Breezes at Revuanong

The breeze blows, the branches and leaves rub, the cicadas and birds chirping, and even Xu Hui's breathing is clear; the sun is warm but not strong, and the fragrance of flowers and plants makes people feel cool and comfortable.

After a while, His Majesty Li Er opened his eyes and saw Xu Hui standing beside him gently. He couldn't help but smile happily, patted Xu Hui's little hand gently, and stroked it pamperedly.

Xu Hui smiled and said to Yingsheng: "Xiao Lang also gave His Highness Jinyang a wooden horse. His Highness liked it very much and moved to Jinyang Palace to play."

His Majesty Li Er chuckled, knowing that he was late and had not seen his beloved daughter Xiao Yizi, he asked casually: "Trojan? Like this chair, can it shake back and forth?"

"Yes!" Xu Hui nodded and said, "I asked the palace servants of Jinyang Palace to take care of themselves, so that your highness can shake too hard."

"The beloved concubine is intent." His Majesty Li Er was very pleased and grateful, but he said helplessly: "This rocking chair is good. I felt soothing and calm after sitting for a while. But, it's better to put it in the beloved concubine's palace!"

Xu Hui knew it clearly and secretly was happy, thanking me for giving him more opportunities to get close to His Majesty and be favored.

This rocking chair is comfortable, and it is also quite interesting to entertain yourself with the concubines in the harem.

But if it is placed in the court, even if it is the Tai Chi Palace in the office, it is not solemn enough, and there will inevitably be a censor to give advice. Especially Mr. Wei, the Mirror of the Eternal Man, must have said it again.

Therefore, His Majesty Li Er was afraid of nagging, so he had to endure the pain and put the rocking chair in Bingxia Palace. Of course, it was also true that Xu Hui was favored.

After noon, the temperature rose. Xu Hui took the round fan and gave His Majesty Li Er a wind to talk about poetry and painting.

Fans originated in China and first appeared in the Yin Dynasty. They were made of colorful pheasants feathers and were called "block fan". Therefore, the character "feather" is in the character "fan".

At that time, fans were not used to fan the wind to get cool, but were used as a way for emperors to hide from the sun, wind and sand when they went out for patrol. It was not until after the Western Han Dynasty that fans began to be used to get cool.

The feather fan was slowly and soft, and did not enter the pores. Later, most of the feather fans were changed to fabrics such as silk, silk, silk, and silk to embroider the paintings.

A fan with a bright moon shape is called "silk fan" or "roof fan", also called "hehuan fan". The fan surface of the fan is often embroidered with landscapes and flowers, or written poems and paintings, and the styles compete for beauty.

The ladies in the boudoir hand-cranked round fans, and the breeze came gently, which not only added the owner's elegant and quiet demeanor, but also reflected the innocent and lively personality of women.

His Majesty Li Er opened his eyes slightly, looked at the green leaves on his head, listened to the cicadas, and was very intoxicated and comfortable in the swaying and the slowly coming fragrant wind.

"Your Majesty, look at this fan." Xu Hui suddenly remembered something and said with a smile.

His Majesty Li Er didn't notice it just now. There was a painting on the round fan. He thought it was an ordinary lady's picture. When Xu Hui asked this, he reached out to take it and looked at it carefully.

It's okay to say it's a picture of a lady. There is a young girl wearing a high bun on her palace dress, graceful and graceful, holding a flower in her hand, and chuckling into her temples. Next to the character are clusters of flowers.

However, when His Majesty Li Er looked carefully, he found that this painting was different from the traditional ladies' pictures, while this girl in the palace dress looked very much like Xu Hui.

The early development stage of ladies' paintings was in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and the women depicted were mainly ancient wise women and fairies in myths and legends.

Because they are all women who are far away from real life and have idealistic colors, the painter is most concerned about how to express their inner spiritual temperament through the expression of women's external shapes. From this, they can also show the typical Wei and Jin beauties with thin bones and clear elephants and ancient temperament.

To put it bluntly, the style of painting like Xu Qilin, which strives to be similar and has a bit of anime characters, was extremely innovative in the Tang Dynasty.

"This, is this my beloved concubine?" His Majesty Li Er looked at the eyebrows and figure of the beauty in the painting and commented: "These eyes are too big. However, the painting is still very similar."

Xu Hui covered her mouth and smiled, saying, "I also think my eyes are bigger. I don't know why my little son paints like this. However, I still like it."

His Majesty Li Er laughed and said, "I guess it's because Xiaolang loves you, so he paints so brightly and kindly." After pausing, he exclaimed again: "If you practice hard, I think it's not worse than a court painter."

Xu Hui was happy to hear His Majesty’s praise and said, “Your Majesty still remembers the poem Xiao Lang wrote a few days ago?”

His Majesty Li Er nodded and said, "It's the saying "The clouds think of clothes and flowers think of appearance". It's indeed a rare good poem. Why, he put a few more words into it?"

"Your Majesty—" Xu Hui said coquettishly: "Why are you choreographing me like this?"

His Majesty Li Er smiled happily and waved his hand and said, "I'm a little mean, so don't care if my beloved concubine."

Xu Hui smiled twice and took out a piece of paper. There were two lines of poetry on it, but the first word of the second sentence was empty, and there were also text descriptions under the poem.

His Majesty Li Er opened his eyes and read these four poems first, chanting: "The clouds think of clothes and flowers think of appearance, and the wind blows through the threshold and the dew is thick."

Thoughtful and savored, His Majesty Li Er smiled and said with a slight look on his face, "Good poems and good sentences. Reading these two sentences, the beauty of his beloved concubine will be vivid, beautiful but not vulgar. It is not only his close relatives and beloved, it is difficult to write such a good sentence."

Xu Hui smiled warmly and moved, Yingsheng said, "It's just that Xiao Lang has been pondering for a long time, but he can't decide a word. Your Majesty will know where he is difficult?"

His Majesty Li Er looked at ten lines at a glance. After reading it, as a poet, he couldn't help but think about it, "In summer, it's not easy to put together a warm word. But it doesn't seem very appropriate. The fragrant wind seems to be too lazy; the fragrant wind is a bit vulgar."

After pondering for a long time, His Majesty Li Er's eyes lit up and he said, "It is better to use the breeze. There are clouds, flowers, and dew in front of him, and the breeze does not reveal any traces."

"Come on!" Xu Hui agreed with the palm of his hand and said with a smile: "Little Lang is hesitant and has not decided, and I have been puzzled for a long time. Your Majesty's word "Qing" can be said to be a pearl, and there is no other word to replace it."

His Majesty Li Er stroked his beard and smiled, feeling proud, but he was still pretending to be reserved, "I guess there must be something more appropriate, how dare you say it is irreplaceable?"

After Xu Hui finished complimenting, she stopped talking and asked the palace servant to get the pen and ink, and asked His Majesty Li Er to write it on the round fan with a smile.

His Majesty Li Er agreed to this small request. He picked up the pen and dipped ink, but saw that the area of ​​the round fan was small, and after a moment of pondering, he picked up the pen and wrote.

Xu Hui was overjoyed and gently brushed her sleeves to make the ink traces dry quickly. When he examined the flying white cursive script, he sincerely praised: "Your Majesty flew white body and walked alone in the world. It was like a meteor passing through the sky, or a cliff and waterfall flying, which was amazing."
