    "Your Majesty, please take a look at Princess Wenwan's recent letters. King Zhou, King Chun, Su Xiang, Hai Lao, Song Luoyang, have you noticed that Princess Wenwan still has a wide network of contacts?" Shen Jian said hesitantly.

    "What do you want to say?" King Zheng asked calmly.

    "I want to say that, in fact, Princess Wenwan can also help the prince. If these people can be brought over, they will definitely be able to help the prince." Shen Jian's eyes were bright.

    ¡®You have to be sincere to your grandpa, and he will like you.  Grandpa is very powerful, he knows everything he wants to do.  ¡¯ King Zheng unexpectedly thought of Wen Wan¡¯s words and shook his head firmly.  If he takes advantage of Wen Wan, his father will definitely know about it, and Wen Wan will be very sad when he finds out.

    "Your Majesty, there is news from the capital. I don't understand. Could the princess be as kind and kind as Princess Fuhui? Otherwise, why would she let the An family go and not punish her in such a good situation?" Shen Jian didn't understand.  Explain.

    Not only Shen Jian was puzzled, but even King Zheng was puzzled.  Xia Ying's secret letter also mentioned this.  King Zheng was puzzled.  But Wenwan's letter to his family was very brief, saying that she didn't want to make the matter a big deal.

    But after spending so much time with Wen Wan, she knew that Wen Wan was actually not a timid person.  Otherwise, she would not have dared to stab someone with scissors at the banquet that day.  What on earth was she thinking, and what exactly did she want to do.  Even he can't see through this child.

    Prince Zhao¡¯s Mansion

    "Mr. Xi, what do you think of this matter?" King Zhao hesitated after receiving the secret letter.

    "The princess is smart. Like the previous emperor, it is not easy to touch her rashly. Just let people pay close attention to see if there is any harm. Then make plans." A close aide suggested.  She couldn't see anything out of something like this.  Had to stop quietly.

    King Zhao nodded.  Wen Wan really can't move now. If anything happens to Wen Wan and he is found guilty, making the emperor think that he can't even tolerate a child, he will miss the throne forever.  He would never do such an uneconomical deal.

    Soon, it¡¯s almost the Dragon Boat Festival.  There are three festivals of the year where gifts are given.  Wen Wan is not worried, except that she made the husband's gift herself.  She left the rest to the nuns around her.

    When I come back, I am especially looking forward to the Dragon Boat Festival.

    Wen Wan is now very interested in ancient festivals.  It's very simple, but the process should be more complicated and more lively than modern times.  Just like the New Year.  Last year's Dragon Boat Festival at Hou Mansion.  It was a very lively time.  But because I was too timid to wander around, I missed it.  this time.  Take a good look.  It¡¯s hilarious to watch.

    When Wenwan woke up in the morning, she saw calamus and mugwort hanging around.  Look at them wearing Ai Ren and Ai Hu as gifts to each other.  On this day, herbs such as mugwort and calamus are bundled into five poisonous herbs and made into a medicinal soup for bathing.  Wenwan is full of curiosity.  Then I have to use these to bathe at night.

    After breakfast, we arrived at the main room.  I saw a child as young as Brother Xian from my sister-in-law's house wearing a tiger shirt, tiger pockets, and tiger shoes.  He is carrying a cloth tiger on his back, and the soles of his shoes are embroidered with "Five Poisons" under his feet. His face is smeared with realgar wine, and on his forehead there is the word "king" written by an adult dipped in realgar and cinnabar.  Looking at Wen Wan, she was very amused. When she asked, it turned out that she wanted to use the tiger's power to ward off evil spirits. She wore a "hundred-year-old rope" with red, yellow, green, white and black silk threads around her neck and small wrists.

    Wen Wan walked around and secretly smacked her tongue. Recalling the legend of the White Snake, it seemed that the White Snake appeared because she drank wine mixed with realgar during the Dragon Boat Festival.  The Dragon Boat Festival is quite interesting.

    When she returned to her courtyard, the nuns also tied a "hundred-year-old rope" around her neck and wrist.  It is said that you cannot pick it off until the first rain after the Dragon Boat Festival and throw it into the rain.  Put away all the bad and filthy.  Throw it into the rain and never come back.

    Xia Yu took a copper enamel flower basket inlaid with sapphire and took a few maids out.  Read out with excitement.  When I came back, the basket was full, and I picked fresh pomegranate flowers, hollyhocks, calamus, mugwort, and tung grass flowers. I called it the Dragon Boat Festival.

    All the old ladies, ladies, aunts, girls and maids in the house, all up and down, all wear flowers. The maids and women who serve as servants wear grass flowers and velvet flowers; the masters and the girls with respectable rank wear pomegranate flowers, or  Wearing hollyhocks.  Wen Wan remembered that she was wearing straw flowers in the Hou Mansion.  I want to bring pomegranate flowers at this meeting, and my status has risen.

    Wen Wan was impatient to wear this gaudy thing, so in the end she had no choice but to tie the flowers around her waist.  In addition to these, special sachets containing angelica dahurica, atractylodes, and cinnabar are also worn to ward off evil spirits.

    Of course, the most important thing is of course the rice dumplings: fresh meat, waxed meat, cloud legs, sausage, red beans, broad beans, mung beans, bean paste, salted eggs, and red dates.  Wen Wan received various gifts, but they all tasted very different.  It¡¯s still delicious when cooked at home.?

    This Dragon Boat Festival is really interesting.  It's not like in my previous life, where I could just live the same life, and at most I could just go out for a nice meal. How can I be so particular about it?

    There is also a dragon boat race held in the capital, and Wen Wan wants to go see it.  Xia Ying wouldn't let him go, and the old lady wouldn't let the Heng family go either.  It is said that it is not safe and may cause accidents.  Wen Wan feels very sad. She has no freedom in life, no freedom in life!

    Wen Wan quickly sent a letter to the teacher. Song Luoyang got the letter and immediately came over to ask him out in person.  In ancient times, teachers were like fathers. Song Luoyang came to pick him up personally, and even Ping's mother had nothing to say.  Not to mention Ping Xiangxi.

    Watch the dragon boat

    When we arrived at the venue, we found it was full.  There wasn't even a place to stand. Wen Wan saw her husband lowering his head and thinking about something, and she also looked around.  Looking at the top of the tower, I drew a few strokes on Xia Ying.  Xia Ying nodded.

    "Princess, Princess, please come over." Wen Wan threw the teacher aside in a very unloyal manner and went to the highest point by herself.  Song Luoyang looked at Wen Wan's proud and guilt-free look. Not only was he not angry, he even laughed.  He watched her go up the stairs before heading towards his friend.

    "If I knew you were coming to see the dragon boat, I should have picked you up earlier." Princess Chun said to Wen Wan with a smile.

    Next to the beautiful young lady, the child Yan Qixuan looked at Wen Wan and came over: "Mute, you saved me last time, but I haven't thanked you yet. This, just think of it as a thank you gift to you."

    Wen Wan watched him take the jade pendant from his neck and hand it over, not knowing what to do.  He had no choice but to raise his sleeve and look at the princess: "You silly child, how can you give Wen Wan something you wear close to your body? If it spreads, it will damage Wen Wan's reputation."

    "Then what do you want? As long as you tell me, I will get it for you." Yan Qixuan patted his chest and shouted boldly.

    ?????????????????????????????????? With a gentle smile, she nodded and made a few strokes: "The princess said that she hasn't thought about it yet, and she will tell you when she thinks about it."

    "Okay, then you think about it. Just let me know." After saying that, he went downstairs and went to play below.

    "Come on, Wen Wan, these are my two daughters. Siman and Si Qian are both a few years older than you. Si Man, Si Qian; this is Wen Wan. Come on, I have met your cousins."  A gentle attitude towards Wen Wan.  Wen Wan didn't think she was loved by everyone, but seeing their defensive attitude made her feel strange.  What heinous thing did he do?  Put fear in their eyes.

    "Wen Wan, your mother died young. There is no adult to teach you. I want to say a few words to you, but don't worry." Princess Chun hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell Wen Wan.

    Wen Wan wondered for a while and nodded.

    "Although your father is wrong about the copybook, you shouldn't beat your concubine. Now that it has been spread, even if it is an obstacle to the emperor, no one will say it publicly, but no one will talk about it secretly. If this continues, it will be detrimental to your reputation.  Not good. Don't act so recklessly now. It's too late to correct yourself. It will be difficult to find a good husband when you grow up." Princess Chun said earnestly.  If it weren't for the sake of Wen Wan saving her son.  She didn't want to meddle in this business either.

    It was only then that Wenwan suddenly realized where the fear in Siman and Siqian's eyes came from.  He shook his head with a smile and wrote a few strokes: "Thank you for your care, Princess. The princess said that if she dared to ask her to commit suicide in the future, she would have to fulfill her filial piety. She still did it. Her life is gone, what do I need to do with my reputation."

    "Huh?" When the princess heard Xia Ying's words, her eyes widened.  The two princesses next to him also looked at Wen Wan in disbelief.

    "What's going on?" Although the princess knew that there must be something going on, she didn't know that it would become so serious.

    With a few gentle strokes: "Princess, this is a family matter. As the saying goes, family scandals should not be publicized, I won't say more here. How they say it is their business, as long as they can have a clear conscience. As for the future  , We will talk about the future later, it is still early, who knows what will happen in the future! The princess said, she is very grateful to the princess for the reminder. "

    "You kid." Even though the princess looked so gentle, she still didn't say anything bad about Ping Xiangxi and Na An.  But from the words just revealed, we can see how dangerous it is.  He actually wanted this child to die as a filial piety.  It¡¯s a shame they can do it.  The child had suffered so much injustice and was unwilling to tell what happened at that time.  Hey, poor kid.  The pity in Princess Chun's eyes was even greater, but Wen Wan felt very uncomfortable when she saw it.  She doesn't need anyone else to pity her.

    "Mother and concubine, the game has begun." The group of people changed their target.

    Although Wen Wan couldn¡¯t speak, she rushed to the stands and faced the distance, jumping up and down and encouraging her desperately.  The princess and the two princesses sitting on the stage could not help but laugh.

     The princess could see that Wen Wan was really happy and was not affected by what happened just now. She sighed in her heart, "I didn't expect this child to be so broad-minded."

    Wen Wan saw the red team, the team she supported, winning, and applauded desperately, her face flushed with excitement.  Princess Chun looked at it, but her eyes were astringent for some reason.

    When they left, the teacher didn¡¯t come to pick them up.  There are too many people and it is difficult to move around.  Rang sent someone to tell the teacher, and then he followed Princess Chun and the others.

    "Good luck to the princess." On the way back, I met someone from the Zhennan Hou Mansion.  Mrs. Xu brought a tall, thin, and calm-looking child who was about ten years old.  The boy looked at Wen Wan with bright eyes.  Mrs. Xu came over and said a few polite words to the princess.

    "I didn't expect that the princess is also here." After saying a few polite words, they went home.

    Song Mansion

    "Today, I will tell you about Xin Qiji's "Moon on the West River, Walking on the Yellow Sand Road at Night." This poem was written by Xin Qiji when he was idle. Xin Qiji was a great poet in the Song Dynasty. He wrote many famous poems in his life, and many of them have been handed down today.  ¡£  Wanluan, cut red and carved green, is unique. However, this poem is not like other poems. He does not use uncommon allusions or gorgeous words. He writes it purely with concise writing style.  To experience it, is it like seeing a picture of the indifference of mist and rain? It looks like mist and rain, but there are thousands of mountains and valleys hidden in the mountains, with twists and turns, each with its own interest. After reading this poem, I feel that it is so refreshing.  It is harmonious and light, it is indeed a rare masterpiece. Just close your eyes and experience it." Song Luoyang chuckled.

    Song Luoyang lectures as he pleases, whatever comes to mind.  However, Wen Wan has a strong endurance and admires him as a teacher.  So whatever he said, he listened carefully and practiced it.

    Wen Wan closed her eyes and listened to the teacher's mellow voice.  It really feels like the breeze blows, and there are one or two intermittent chants, and the silence of the night.  In the summer, the harmonious atmosphere and joyful mood suddenly flood into my heart.

    When I opened my eyes, I saw my husband spreading out a painting.  It was clearly based on this poem.  Wen Wan was extremely happy.

    "This painting is given to you by the teacher. The teacher knows that it is difficult for you, but I hope you can always maintain this peaceful mood. As long as you can be clear about your heart, you don't have to pay attention to other people's gossip. Do you remember it?" Song Luoyang lovingly said  Said.

    Wen Wan felt warm in her heart and nodded with a smile.  Then he wrote doubtfully: "Teacher, do you have something to say to me?"

    Song Luoyang looked at Wen Wan and smiled and said, "I didn't expect you, a girl, to be so smart. I have been staying in the capital for more than half a year. I have taught you all the things that need to be taught. You are still just getting started now, and the rest  You only need to understand the skills. Just study chess, painting, and flute music. No matter what, you are my student, and you must be good at at least a few. It would be shameful for me to lose my dignity as a teacher.  Come on! Don't be lazy. When I come back, you will be randomly checked. If you fail, I won't want you as a student."

    Wenwan knew that the teacher had made an exception for her, and she also knew that the teacher liked to travel around the world.  I felt reluctant to part with him, but I didn't say anything to persuade him to stay.  I just asked when I would leave.

    "Now that we've decided, we'll leave tomorrow." Wen Wan wondered why it was so fast, with no time to prepare.

    Wenwan asked what needed to be prepared.  The teacher said, no need.  I already like wandering outside alone. When I get tired of walking outside, I will come back.  (To be continued)
