Chapter 349: Butterfly Dance Peach Killing 2
It rained for three days in a row in Kyoto, which really helped to kill the heat.
As the day cleared up, the butterflies trapped in the glass bottles were released in Changle Palace.
Xiao Jingheng valued Song Zhao, so the flowers he supplied to Song Zhao's palace were of the most diverse varieties.
The courtyard of Changle Palace has become the second imperial garden in the palace.
This is also one of the reasons why butterflies are reluctant to leave once they enter Changle Palace.
At this moment, Yunshan, Chunhua, Qiuyue and others were taking advantage of the good weather to dry washed clothes in a corner of the courtyard.
I was only halfway through the work at hand when Xiao Fuzi came running over stupidly and waved to Yunshan mysteriously.
"Puchi Puchi~ Yunshan~ come here for a while."
Yunshan glanced at him, ignored him, and continued to hang clothes.
"What are you doing? Just say what you want to say."
"Hey, come here!"
Xiao Fuzi started to make advances towards Yunshan as soon as they had a disagreement, and then pulled her arm and dragged her away.
He pulled Yunshan all the way back to the veranda and would not let her go until the door was closed.
Yunshan was a little annoyed. He moved his wrist and said unhappily, "Why are you being so secretive? How can others see us fighting?"
Xiao Fuzi smiled secretly, and suddenly took out a few flowers from his sleeves.
"What do you think this is?"
Yunshan looked at the lavender petals of the flower, the strange shape of the center of the flower, which looked like a pine cone, and the unique fragrance that was refreshing to the heart.
She was not surprised and asked, "Why did you pick all these Echinacea?"
"Hush! Keep your voice down!" Xiao Fuzi looked around slyly and said, "Now that Princess Ruoxin is being raised in our palace, she often misses Concubine Chen and goes to Yonghe Palace every day. Do you think our queen will be happy when she sees this? So I thought of a way to keep the princess here so that she won't miss Concubine Chen."
"What?" Yunshan joked, "Just because of these two flowers in your hand?"
Xiao Fuzi said, "Don't underestimate this Echinacea. Its nectar is the favorite of butterflies. Doesn't the princess like butterflies very much? But butterflies fly around everywhere and we can't control where they go. So I thought, if I soak the clothes with Echinacea nectar, wouldn't the butterflies smell the scent and flock here?"
Yunshan thought for a while after hearing this and said, "Your idea is not bad. But these things cannot get on the master's clothes."
"You are stupid!" Xiao Fuzi tapped Yunshan on the head with the bouquet of flowers. "Why does the master need to get infected with this stuff? We can get infected. Then the butterflies will fly around us and follow us in large groups. The young master will definitely be happy to see it! When he is having fun, he might even forget about going to Yonghe Palace."
Then he moved closer to Yunshan and said in a low voice, "When the time comes, if the queen is happy, she will definitely give us a reward."
Yunshan said, "That sounds feasible. Let's pick more Echinacea tomorrow and collect the nectar to soak our clothes~"
The next day.
After getting up in the morning and paying her respects to Ning Wanshuang, Song Zhao returned to the palace and had nothing to do, so she took the military book that Xiao Jingheng had left with her and started reading it.
I was watching intently when I suddenly heard Ruoxin's laughter coming from the courtyard.
"It's so beautiful! Sister Chunhua, please walk slower, I want butterflies to chase me too!"
Song Zhao looked out the window and saw a large group of dancing butterflies flying around Chunhua and Qiuyue, as if they were flowers.
Ruoxin was having fun following them, jumping and clapping her hands.
Song Zhao was curious for a moment, so he put down his book and went to the courtyard.
Seeing her coming, Ruoxin held her hand affectionately and said with a smile, "Look, mother, is it beautiful?"
Song Zhao smiled and stroked the child's hair. "It's beautiful. This is the first time I've seen it, too."
Then he asked Chunhua and Qiuyue, "What ingenious method have you come up with to make these butterflies fly around you?"
Chunhua said, "Your Highness, we servants thought that butterflies like the smell of Echinacea, so we picked a lot of Echinacea and soaked clothes with nectar. The smell will be all over our bodies, which will naturally attract butterflies."
Qiuyue moved closer to Song Zhao and whispered, "The princess has been going to Yonghe Palace these days, so I want to use this method to keep the princess in our palace and keep her away from Concubine Chen."
Song Zhao nodded repeatedly, seeming to be very satisfied with their method, and asked Ruoxin,
"Ruoxin likes butterflies. Did she have fun playing with Sister Chunhua and the others?"
"Happy!" Ruoxin nodded vigorously and smiled happily.
Song Zhao then told Yunshan, "Chunhua and Qiuyue's idea is good, and it also makes Ruoxin happy. Go to my room and get some golden melon seeds as a reward for them."
Upon hearing this, Chunhua Qiuyue hurriedly thanked him, but Yunshan pursed his lips and looked a little unhappy, muttering softly:
"But this idea was clearly first thought up by me and Xiao Fuzi. They must have overheard my conversation with Xiao Fuzi, and then..."
"Sister Yunshan, please don't frame me." Chunhua argued, "Everyone knows that butterflies like the fragrance of flowers and eat nectar. How can it be said that we are imitating you?"
Yunshan frowned and said unhappily, "You know whether you eavesdropped on our conversation or not. Humph, you are a cunning imitator!"
"you......"
"alright."
Seeing that several people were about to quarrel, Song Zhao immediately frowned and scolded: "I am still here, what are you quarreling about?"
As she spoke, she glanced at Yunshan and said in a more serious tone, "You too, you are the head maid, I just rewarded others with some things, why are you so unhappy?"
"I didn't..." Yunshan lowered her eyes in grievance.
But Song Zhao didn't indulge her. "If you don't have it, go and give the golden melon seeds to others as a reward. Don't be so stern here and give others a hard time."
"yes......"
Chunhua and Qiuyue saw Yunshan walking away with red eyes, and they looked at each other with pride in their eyes.
Song Zhao also said to them in a friendly manner:
"It's been hot lately, and everyone's tempers have gotten worse. Yunshan isn't a bad person by nature, so don't take her to heart about what she says."
As he spoke, seeing Ruoxin having fun with the group of butterflies, Song Zhao's face became even happier.
"Since the princess likes it, you can soak your clothes with nectar every day from now on. If you appease the princess well, I will reward you handsomely."
The two of them said happily, "Yes, we will live up to your expectations!"
