Chapter 227
Chu Yi got off the horse and walked into the Bauhinia Forest with Yin Bing, intending to fold some flowers for Xiao Yan.
"Yinbing, you can also bring it back to Shangjing at a later date, and then give it to brother Sanhuang." Chu Yi teased.
Yin Bing: "Why send him? He's a man."
"Anyway, it is said that this thing is given to someone I like, what does it matter if a woman gives it to a man or a man gives it to a woman?" Chu Yi said.
"You're right." Yin Bing nodded thoughtfully, and with lightness kung fu, he quickly broke off a few flower branches, and even lowered his head to sniff.
Chu Yi raised the corners of her lips, and asked back: "Is Yin Bing admitting that he loves Brother Three?"
Yinbing's face turned red, she took a deep breath, held it back for a long time, and only said six words: "It's for medicinal use, that's all!"
She didn't give it to Chu Yun to show her love, she just thought that the bauhinia flower seemed to be used as medicine, and it was relatively rare in Yan country, so it could just cure Chu Yun's brain.
Suddenly, the sound of arguing came from within the forest.
"Xiao Yan, why are you everywhere?"
"Buy and leave, I will pay first, mine, mine!"
Chu Yi frowned, and heard that one of the voices was Xiao Yan, and the other... seemed to be her brother.
She followed the sound and saw Xiao Yan and Chu Ye standing in front of an old man with white hair, they were arguing fiercely without knowing what to say.
Chu Ye arrived in Yedu a few days earlier than they did. Judging by his clothes, he had changed from a military uniform to an ordinary nobleman's attire.
"What are you two arguing about?" Chu Yi stepped forward.
"little six?"
"Princess."
Xiao Yan and Chu Ye glanced at each other, both looking worried.
After seeing Yi's face clearly, the old man opened his eyes wide in amazement, and stammered, "W-Where did this fairy come from..."
Chu Ye said proudly: "What kind of fairy can be compared with Ben Gong's younger sister."
Xiao Yan: "This is me... This is my king's concubine."
Chu Yi coughed: "Who is your princess now?"
The old man was too old, he didn't seem to understand the meaning of the words "Ben Gong" and "Ben Wang", and still regarded them as ordinary people.
Chu Yi then said: "Old man, dare to ask what happened?"
The old man seemed to have seen the savior, and quickly explained: "Little old man, I am the owner of the redbud forest, and I am also the son of the man who planted the redbud forest for his wife. Usually, I come to the redbud forest in spring and summer. Enjoy the scenery with flowers, and the rewards for those who pick them make a living.”
"It turned out to be Master Lin, sorry for your disrespect." Chu Yi said politely, looking at her brother and Xiao Yan, she understood what the two were arguing about just now.
The old man twirled his beard and looked at Chu Yi: "The bauhinia forest is a symbol of the relationship between the parents of the little old man, but these two young masters suddenly appeared and insisted on paying 500 taels to buy my forest. What do you think is this?" Ah, how can I possibly sell it?"
Chu Ye helplessly explained to his sister: "I intend to buy this forest and give it to Tingyu to show my sincerity."
Xiao Yan helplessly explained to Chu Yi: "This king intends to buy this forest and give it to...you."
As he spoke, Xiao Yan lowered his eyes and his ears turned crimson.
It was the first time His Royal Highness Prince Yu did such a thing, and the princess found out, so he was very shy.
Chu Yi was stunned for a moment, her apricot eyes flickered with a strange light.
She thought he didn't remember this forest, but she didn't expect that he wanted to buy the whole mountain for herself.
Xiao Yan adjusted his mood, and in front of Chu Yi, asked leisurely: "May I ask His Royal Highness, if the princess and Miss Tingyu fell into the water at the same time, who would you save?"
"Bengong—don't provoke the relationship between Bengong and my sister!"
"His Royal Highness hesitated," Xiao Yan said sharply, never proud of himself before, "Unlike this king, even if Geng Tingyu is right in front of this king, this king will not even look at her. I only have the princess in my heart." one person!"
When Chu Yi heard his unabashed words, her face became a little hot.
When Chu Ye heard Xiao Yan's angry words, he almost wanted to punch him.
Seeing the two quarreling again, the old man couldn't help but said: "What do you tell the little old man to say before you believe it? I won't sell it, absolutely not. This is a symbol of my parents' affection. I am so old. Not for sale."
"One thousand five hundred taels," Xiao Yan said expressionlessly, shaking the banknote in his hand, "It's enough for your whole family to go to the most prosperous part of Yedu to buy a different courtyard, and your children and grandchildren will be rich and honored for a lifetime."
The old man swallowed his saliva, subconsciously looked at Chu Ye, his eyes flickered: "This is left to me by my parents, and the rich and powerful in Beijing wanted to buy it before, but I refused..."
"2000 taels!" His Royal Highness said with a cold snort, "I won't give away Tingyu, I bought it for Xiao Liu, but I won't let you give it away, hum."
Xiao Yan: "..." His Royal Highness may really be his lifelong enemy. He warned himself to stay away from the princess before, but now he still prevents him from giving the princess something.
And there are five more brothers like this, the princess.
Chu Yi's eyes flickered, and she saw that the old man seemed to be taking the two of them for a fool, but it could not be ruled out that the old man was really reluctant to sell, so she persuaded: "Forget it, why buy it if they don't want to sell it? It’s useless except to enjoy the flowers.”
The old man hurriedly said: "My redbud forest is warm in winter and cool in summer. The scenery is beautiful. There are many young people visiting in summer. Whoever folds the flowers can leave me some money? Why is it useless?"
Xiao Yan approached Chu Yi, and said helplessly in her ear: "Princess, he sold it for 1000 taels in the previous life, but in this life there is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so he wants to raise the price."
"Past life? In the previous life, you bought this forest?" Chu Yi smelled the faint smell of peach on his body, and her heart missed half a beat.
Xiao Yan raised the corners of his lips and nodded lightly: "It's enough for a Bomei person to smile."
Not only did he buy Lin Zi, but he also used Chu Yi's name, so it was equivalent to Chu Yi accepting the flowers he sent, which meant mutual liking in Yedu.
Chu Yi recalled that they looked at the scenery here in the previous life, when they were arguing and arguing, but now that they revisited the old place, they were in a different mood.
What remains unchanged is Xiao Yan's hand that has never let go.
Chu Yi thought for a moment, and then directly winked at Chu Ye.
"What's so interesting about this forest? After my elder brother marries Miss Tingyu and ascends the throne, hundreds of flowers will bloom in the imperial garden, colorful and colorful. Isn't that enough to satisfy her?"
Chu Ye said again and again: "You are right, if I want to go back, I will ascend the throne."
"I support you, and I will persuade my father to abdicate when I go back." Chu Yi said with a smile, "And this redbud flower is not very interesting to me. I am tired of seeing it in Weiyang Palace."
Xiao Yan held her hand cooperatively: "In that case, let's go."
The three of them turned around and were about to leave when the old man saw the 2000 taels flying from his mouth, and hurriedly shouted behind them: "500 taels, you can sell it for 500 taels!"
The three of them kept walking.
"1000 taels, 1000 taels!"
The three of them didn't look back.
"800 taels, 800 taels!"
Chu Yi then turned around and walked back, saying, "Old man, it turns out that the symbol of your parents' affection is worth 800 taels."
The old man: "..."
