    Ouyang Zheng walked around the red sandalwood landscape embroidered screen and entered the inner hall.

    The inner hall is spacious, with a nine-leaf screen with red sandalwood seats inlaid with marble flowers and birds placed in the middle. In front of the screen is a three-screen couch made of Zhang Huanan's ancient broken pattern inlaid with jade. Four open-carved red sandalwood armchairs are placed at the bottom and on the left and right, and four armchairs are placed in the middle.  Coffee table with carved cloud head pattern.

    Princess Luoxi and Chengjun Prince Yin Chengzong sat opposite each other on the couch, with two round boxes placed on the couch in the middle.  In the inner hall, only Feng Ye, the princess's personal maid, stood by and waited on her.

    "The dignified prince of the county actually came to our house to fight against the autumn wind? If word spread, it would damage your reputation." Ouyang Zheng's voice was low and gentle, but there was no smile on his face. The joke was so serious that people couldn't help but laugh.  A chill.

    Yin Chengzong was holding a string of white fragrant beads in his hand and talking to the princess with a smile. Seeing Ouyang Zheng come in, he put the beads on his wrist, stood up and went to greet her, "Wenxuan, the princess and aunt didn't even say that she wouldn't give it to her, why are you here?"  You have become so stingy. This is not Luoxi Mansion. You should be careful to scare people with a calm face."

    Ouyang Zheng realized that he had been thinking about something along the way. His face was serious, and he was twitching at the corner of his mouth, but he was a little uncomfortable. He ignored Yin Chengzong, walked around him and sat opposite Princess Luoxi, and looked at the round box, "What is it?"

    The princess smiled and pushed the box in front of him and said: "The servants came to present the gift list for the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion. By chance, Zicheng came over and saw two perfumes inside. You know he is a lover of perfumes. Have you ever seen one before?  The incense can't walk, so I won't bring it over to show him, but I didn't expect it to be a rare thing."

    Ouyang Zheng's eyes also fell on the round porcelain box, which was compacted with fine white cotton. Twenty or so green lotus leaves no more than an inch wide were scattered on it. There were three or five leaves clustered together, and some scattered scattered.  Come, pink and white lotus flowers are blooming on the leaves, and there are three or two buds hidden among the white lotus leaves. Two grass-green dragonflies landed on the lotus, adding a bit of life to the lotus pond.

    The elegant fragrance of lotus comes out, like walking by the quiet lotus pond at night, the fresh air washes away the irritability and refreshes the heart.

    Ouyang Zheng was startled for a while, and then he heard the princess sighing at the side: "I don't know what the lotus fragrance is made of. It has a pure taste. It's just that it's made so beautifully. It looks like the real thing. I like it when I look at it. If I put it  I smoked it on the stove, I really couldn¡¯t bear it"

    Ouyang Zheng came back to his senses, didn't say anything but nodded slightly, and glanced at another rosewood box. It was divided into four compartments and displayed beads of four colors. Each bead was round and full, with a variant longevity pattern engraved on it.  The ends of the string ropes are all decorated with five bat colorful stripes.

    Ouyang Zheng¡¯s sight fell into Ouyang Zheng¡¯s sight on a piece of plain paper on the lid of the box. The handwriting was neat and delicate, with a hint of softness. He thought it was written by a woman.

    "Is this bead string incense? Or is it fragrant wood?" Ouyang Zheng has used bead strings made of fragrant wood, but the texture is not as delicate as this one. He couldn't tell whether it was wood or fragrant pills.

    "Puch", Yin Chengzong couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

    "What kind of fragrant wood? This string of beads can be used as incense or for daily wear. Even the shop I own can't make such high-quality products. Well, I smelled it, and there are at least twenty kinds of materials. This plain paper has  The dozen or so mentioned are just ingredients that are often incompatible with other medicinal materials, so they are mentioned separately. As for the real ingredients that is the secret recipe. Generally, fragrant beads are black and are also used for burning incense, but Jiaozhi has more.  Red fragrant beads made of cinnabar, yellow, white and bodhi are very rare. These fragrant beads are tight and are better than the finest sandalwood beads."

    Ouyang Zheng glanced at Yin Chengzong's wrist, raised his eyebrows and said: "Not only do you have poisonous eyes, but your nose is sharper than a dog! You beat me to it before I even got one. Since I got the birthday gift from my mother-in-law, I'll give it to you  Make up for it with a bigger portion, otherwise"

    Yin Chengzong hurriedly pulled up his sleeves to protect his wrists, looked at Ouyang Zheng with wide eyes, as if he was afraid of being snatched away by him, he nodded and assured, "This string was given to me by my aunt, the princess. I will just repay aunt with a big gift someday."  .Don¡¯t stare at me like that!¡±

    "Okay, what are you two brothers arguing about? It's rare that Zicheng has something that likes it, so just give it to him, what else do you need as a gift? Wenxuan, since it's a good thing, come and pick a bunch."

    The princess looked at Ouyang Zheng with a smile. Her son was usually stern and didn't pay much attention to these external things. Today, she took a fancy to Ouyang Zheng and asked a few questions, so she mentioned it casually to see if he liked it.  She didn't expect Ouyang Zheng to actually take it, but as soon as she mentioned it, Ouyang Zheng stared at the four-color beads and frowned, as if hesitating, not knowing which one to choose.

    The princess secretly claimed to be surprised when she saw Ouyang Zheng holding a string of bodhi-colored fragrant beads and looking at it again and again, and asked, "Hey, what's different about this string of fragrant beads?"

    Yin Chengzong also looked over, staring at the bead string in Ouyang Zheng's hand with great curiosity, and subconsciously touched himself.??Skills, just now the announcement came too fast, I didn't have time to take a closer look. The rare bodhi colored string is also different from the others. Is it made by a real expert?

    "There is no difference. I will choose this string. Thank you, concubine!" Ouyang Zheng quickly put the bead string on his hand.

    He knew in his heart that this bodhi-colored string of beads was indeed somewhat different.  The hole on the bottom fragrant bead has two more tiny bamboo leaf carvings than the others. You can't find it unless you look carefully.  For some reason, he decided to choose this one as soon as he saw the difference between this one and the others.

    "Speaking of which, what's going on with Mu's house? I heard that a girl from the Xiao family was pointed out to the King of Thailand. But I vaguely remember that Princess Yin's mother's family is related to Concubine Xian" The princess didn't finish her words, but it was interesting.  It is very clear that it is taboo for the Mu family to have two sides.

    Ouyang Zheng glanced at Maple Leaf, who immediately resigned, leaving the three of them talking in the inner hall.

    "Concubine Xian didn't do anything in this matter, otherwise the Mu family wouldn't have approached me." Ouyang Zheng turned the beads on his wrist, "I'm not in Beijing these days, what do you think about the Xiao family's affairs?  "

    "On the day of the Lotus Party, Princess Tai posted a message, but she happened to be unhappy and didn't get it. Later, the Xiao family was accused of getting married, and some people said that the recipe given by the Queen Mother was not found by the Xiao family. I didn't care at first, but today  Seeing these" The princess pointed to the box on the small table, "I guess the Mu family is afraid of suffering a loss and is trying to show their kindness."

    "Aunt Princess, the Xiao family's gift list also contains sandalwood, musk deer, rose water, etc., but it is far inferior to that of the Mu family. The Mu family is not only showing kindness, but has clearly suffered a hidden loss, fearing that the Queen Mother and the King of Thailand  Forgot about the benefits of his family." Yin Chengzong yawned and raised his eyelids, "It's a shame that Mu Da has the word 'loyalty' in his name. I think he is just a faggot."

    The princess frowned slightly, looked at Ouyang Zheng, and asked: "What do you mean, Wenxuan? Can you explain it to your father? Don't cause any taboos."

    Ouyang Zheng was silent for a moment and then said: "Don't worry, mother and concubine. I know this matter well. I will tell my father about it, and there is no need for me to come forward on this matter."

    The princess nodded and chatted a few words with Ouyang Zheng about the birthday banquet.  Ouyang Zheng saw that she was tired, so he pulled Yin Chengzong to bow and leave.

    As soon as he left the hospital, Yin Chengzong came up to him with a playful smile, "Wenxuan, show me your string of beads?"

    "Go, I got a bunch, and I want more. I'm going to find my father. If you want to go, you might as well come along." As he said that, Ouyang Zheng took Yin Chengzong's arm and wanted to drag him with him.

    When Yin Chengzong heard that he wanted to see King Luo Xi, he quickly broke away and waved his hand: "It's better not to watch, you are stingy! You have been accustomed to being told by Old Prince Ouyang since you were a child, and I don't want my ears to suffer. I'm going back first, Chu  Come back in five!¡±

    Yin Chengzong ran away in a trot. Ouyang Zheng did not forget to shout behind him: "Don't forget to return the gift, otherwise you won't be able to run away next time."

    Yin Chengzong just pretended not to hear and walked faster.  After he swaggered out of the palace, got into the carriage and lowered the curtain, the playful look on his face instantly faded, and he whispered to the outside of the carriage: "Go and find out where the incense recipe presented by the Xiao family came from, and the Mu family  Who made the incense sent to Prince Luo Xi¡¯s Mansion?¡±

    The rain outside the car was getting heavier, and the raindrops hit the roof of the car, making a crackling sound. With a whip on the handlebar, the carriage started slowly, but the other boy following the car had disappeared.
