Chapter 65: Stroll



Then she slowly turned her head, and looked at Jun Zechen with eyes as clear and lively as water, with infinite tenderness in her eyes.

“Although Amaryllis is bright and colorful, it smells delicate.”

"So I think this flower is similar to Yaoyao." Jun Zechen responded with a doting smile on his face.

After hearing this, Su Jingyao raised the corners of her mouth slightly and smiled.

Suddenly, there seemed to be a flash of light in her eyes, as if she had some new idea.

"Your Majesty, I have many embroidery patterns for my dresses, such as chrysanthemum, peony, plum blossom, crabapple, and azalea, but I have never had any amaryllis embroidery. For this birthday banquet for the Queen Mother, I would like to use the amaryllis embroidery pattern for my palace dress."

She tilted her head slightly as she spoke, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Yaoyao likes it, so she ordered someone to make it. Amaryllis is bright and festive, so it's very suitable."

Jun Zechen said with a smile that he actually didn't care much about what was embroidered on the woman's dress.

But she pays great attention to these things. Every time I see her, not only are the embroidery patterns on her dresses different, but even the styles are unique.

Each piece has some unique little thoughts, which always makes people's eyes light up and brings people a different kind of surprise.

Su Jingyao received his approval and thought that Amaryllis was very good. With a smile in her eyes, as if there was something meaningful in it, she continued to walk forward with Jun Zechen.

I wonder if Jun Zechen has ever heard of a poem, 'Amaryllis is gorgeous and delicate, standing tall and graceful with a quiet rhyme.'

The next sentence is 'Although it is gorgeous and charming, it contains a slight poison, so don't underestimate it.'

The sap of Amaryllis is poisonous.

Miss Chu was so ostentatious and arrogant, and today she winked at Jun Zechen in front of him.

What would be Jun Zechen's attitude when he summoned Lady Chu?

She was actually a little curious.

Su Jingyao and Jun Zechen walked towards the Peony Pavilion. They walked and stopped, sometimes stopping to admire the beautiful scenery, and sometimes chatting and laughing.

In this way, it took almost two quarters of an hour to reach the Peony Pavilion.

Su Jingyao also felt that she had almost digested the food.

Anshun has always been courteous and has made all the necessary arrangements for meals.

At this time, the Peony Pavilion was brightly lit, as if it were daytime. In order to repel mosquitoes, Anshun also thoughtfully prepared incense, and the fragrance permeated the air.

Jun Zechen held Su Jingyao's hand, and they sat together in the Peony Pavilion.

Su Jingyao had no interest in the meals prepared by Jun Zechen, and she had already had dinner, so she sat aside obediently and stretched out her jade hand to pick up food for Jun Zechen.

At this time, with his beauty by his side, the breeze blowing gently, and the bright moon hanging high in the sky, Jun Zechen felt extremely comfortable in his heart.

Not long after, the sound of a pipa could be heard from afar.

Jun Zechen's brows suddenly frowned, his face darkened instantly, and he spoke unhappily.

"Anshun, drive away the one playing the pipa."

An Shun was about to respond when Su Jingyao suddenly smiled and said.

"Your Majesty, I originally thought that the surroundings were too quiet, but the sound of the pipa came just right and was very appropriate for the occasion."

Hearing this, Jun Zechen turned around and looked at her, and asked softly, "Yaoyao likes it?"

Su Jingyao nodded slightly.

"In that case, Anshun, bring the person over to play for Concubine Chunshu." Jun Zechen ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Anshun responded quickly.

When Anshun brought the person over, Su Jingyao looked up.

The woman following behind Anshun, holding a pipa and with her head lowered, was wearing a light-colored dress and not wearing many jewelry on her head, but she gave off a faint fairy-like aura.

"Your concubine Yan Cairen pays respects to His Majesty and to Consort Chunshu."

Lady Yan held a pipa and bowed to pay her respects.

"Stand up." Jun Zechen said in a light tone.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Yan Cairen stood up, with a hint of joy in her voice that was hard to conceal.

Unexpectedly, this pipa really attracted His Majesty's attention.

"Ms. Yan's pipa music is beautiful, but why are there no palace maids serving her?"

Su Jingyao looked at her and asked softly, with a hint of curiosity on her face.

"Your Highness, I saw that the scenery of the Imperial Garden was very beautiful. After dinner, I wanted to play the pipa in the Imperial Garden to amuse myself. However, I accidentally lost my handkerchief on the way, so I asked my personal maid to look for it."

Yan Cairen explained slowly, her eyes moving slightly as she spoke, and her gaze occasionally fell on His Majesty who was lowering his head to eat.

Your Majesty is so handsome that Lady Yan couldn't stop smiling.

"Anshun, please take a seat. Since Concubine Chunshu likes your pipa music, you can continue to play it." Jun Zechen ordered in a light tone, his face as calm as water.

Yan Cairen's originally joyful smile suddenly froze.

It's not His Majesty who likes her pipa, but Concubine Chunshu?

Her eyes were somewhat complicated, and she quickly glanced at Concubine Chun Shu who was standing next to her with a gentle smile on her face.

Then she said softly, "Yes, it is my great honor to play for Concubine Chun Shu."

After saying that, Yan Cairen sat down, gently placed her hands on the pipa, and began to play.

As she played, a melodious sound emerged, which contrasted with the beautiful scenery around her, and was indeed beautiful.

Su Jingyao looked at this talented Yan. She did not leave any special impression on her during the palace selection, but tonight it seemed that she had quite a few little thoughts in mind.

She and Jun Zechen had been out for quite a while. Anyone who was well-informed in the harem knew that Jun Zechen was taking her for a walk in the Imperial Garden.

The other newcomers were smart enough not to disturb them, but Yan Cairen was quite courageous.
