Chapter 1055 Private Territory
Prince Jun lived in Taoyun Pavilion behind Youqing Temple, which was a small courtyard with four side rooms and a small square courtyard. It was connected to Youqing Temple by a short covered bridge of only a few dozen steps.
In the past, when Prince Jun lived here, the door of the covered bridge would naturally be guarded by someone, and no one would easily go in and disturb his rest.
It can be said that Xiao Lanyuan's more than ten years at Youqing Peak were truly peaceful and quiet.
Ordinary people are not allowed to pass Taoyun Pavilion.
Madam Cheng should know this, but now she sees that Qing Yi is obviously going to take Fu Zhaoning to Taoyun Pavilion, and she feels a little uncomfortable.
I always feel that by allowing Fu Zhaoning to live in Taoyun Pavilion as an exception, it means that Youqing Peak has also acknowledged her relationship with Xiao Lanyuan.
So she couldn't help but speak up, "Let the princess go over and take a look. On Youqing Peak, besides Wujing Pavilion where the abbot lives, Taoyun Pavilion is the warmest. The princess has come all the way here, so we should show some hospitality, don't you think, Yuan?"
Before Xiao Lanyuan could say anything, she continued, "Besides, there is no good tea in other places. I'm afraid the princess won't be used to the teas served to outsiders. You have Snow Peak Maofeng tea, so it's most appropriate to serve the princess with that."
Madam Cheng smiled and said, "I haven't been to Taoyun Pavilion for many years. Can Ayuan greet me? Let me have a cup of Xueding Maofeng tea?"
The tea was planted by Xiao Lanyuan himself on Youqing Peak when he was a child. Moreover, it was a branch of an ancient tea tree that was dug from somewhere, but he actually managed to grow it alive.
Seven or eight years ago, the tea tree started to yield tea leaves, but not many at a time. After the tea leaves were processed, only two kilograms were produced each year, which was very precious.
Mrs. Cheng has only drunk it three times in all these years.
When Princess Fuyun heard her say this, she smiled with joy and anticipation, "Then I really have to try it. The tea that Aunt Cheng is obsessed with must be excellent."
Mrs. Cheng told her the origin of the tea.
Fu Zhaoning glanced at Xiao Lanyuan.
She had heard a lot about Youqing Peak from other people. If Madam Cheng hadn't told her, she wouldn't have known that he had planted a tea tree, and she had never tasted the Snow Peak tea.
"I have to thank Madam Cheng this time?"
Fu Zhaoning sighed softly and said with a hint of sadness, "If she hadn't told me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have had the pleasure of enjoying this tea in my life. I don't even know what kind of tea Snow Top Maofeng is and what it tastes like."
Xiao Lanyuan regretted it even more at this time.
He really didn't talk to her enough.
Usually I always feel that if there is no real use or useful information, there is no need to say more, but now I find that many small things in life, if said out loud, can make the relationship between them closer.
Look, now that these things have been spoken by Mrs. Cheng, it seems that there is some estrangement between him and Fu Zhaoning.
She had heard so many things about him from other people.
In addition to being annoyed, Xiao Lanyuan was somewhat angry at Madam Cheng.
Is Madam Cheng trying to steal the show? He hasn't even told her about his affairs yet, why is he telling her everything?
Is this to show that she has a very good relationship with him and knows a lot of things? How can Zhao Ning be happy with this?
He suddenly realized Fu Zhaoning's previous evaluation of Madam Cheng.
I feel a little uncomfortable.
"Taoyun Pavilion never allows outsiders to enter. Aunt Cheng should know this."
Xiao Lanyuan directly objected, "Thirteen, send Aunt Cheng and the Princess to Weixiang Garden."
Weixiang Garden is just a very small garden, but it is quiet. Female guests always like to sit there for a while. There are many roses and crabapples planted there, as well as some plum blossoms. The small garden is almost drowned in flowers and is extremely beautiful.
However, Xiao Lanyuan seldom went there because he did not like such romantic scenery. Moreover, there was a period of time when he could not even accept the fragrance and pollen of flowers and would always cough.
Mrs. Cheng actually knew this.
She looked at Xiao Lanyuan, and for a moment she didn't know if she was overthinking.
Xiao Lanyuan said that he wanted Princess Fuyun to go to Weixiang Garden. Could it be that he deliberately picked a place he rarely goes to?
Moreover, she had already asked for tea, but Xiao Lanyuan didn't give her any face at all, which made her feel somewhat embarrassed.
"I know Weixiang Garden. I'll take Ah Fu there first. There's no need for Thirteen." Madam Cheng simply said so. She looked around and said, "Maybe the abbot knew you were coming today, so he didn't let outsiders go up the mountain today. That's why it's so quiet now."
She turned to Princess Fuyun and said, "Afu, come on, I'll show you around."
Princess Fuyun bit her lower lip, endured the embarrassment, and went with Madam Cheng.
"Princess, this way." Qing Yi coughed.
As expected, the prince had to speak, otherwise they wouldn't know how to refuse.
"Let's go." Fu Zhaoning walked past Xiao Lanyuan and followed Qing Yi.
Xiao Lanyuan sighed softly and could only follow obediently.
After crossing the covered bridge, we entered Taoyun Pavilion. There were two floors in the attic, four side rooms below, and the upper floor was like a pavilion, empty.
"The prince used to practice martial arts on it." Qing Yi said to Fu Zhaoning.
Fu Zhaoning nodded and did not comment. However, after she entered Taoyun Pavilion, she did find it warmer.
"This is the most sheltered place in the entire Youqing Peak."
Xiao Lanyuan walked up to her side and said, "In the morning, you can occasionally see the mountains covered with mist and clouds. It should be a beautiful view, but maybe I have lived here for more than ten years and I am a little numb to it. I am used to it, so I never thought of telling you before."
Is this an explanation?
Apart from the suspended platform halfway up the mountain, this was the only scene Xiao Lanyuan remembered to share with her.
However, Xiao Lanyuan was a little annoyed. If he had known earlier, he would not have gone to the hanging platform and would have gone directly to Youqing Peak. This way, Fu Zhaoning would have avoided meeting Tang Wujuan.
Perhaps if Tang Wujuan had not met Fu Zhaoning there, he might not have reached the top of the mountain.
unwise.
It would be great if he could calculate as well as the master.
"Oh." Fu Zhaoning just replied.
"Let's go inside first. Qingyi, take Xiaoyue to the tea room and teach her how to brew Xueding Maofeng."
"yes."
Qingyi quickly stopped Xiaoyue who was about to follow Fu Zhaoning.
"Xiaoyue, come this way."
The prince and princess are clearly feeling a little awkward right now, so give them some space to talk.
Xiaoyue pursed her lips and followed him anyway.
Xiao Lanyuan pushed open the door of the main room and said, "Wait a moment, let me see if there is any dust."
Fu Zhaoning really stood outside the door and didn't go in.
She leaned inside and saw that Xiao Lanyuan had pushed open all the windows.
