175. Chapter 173 Bloody Pear Blossom


Chapter 173 Blood Pear Blossom

Years ago, Wen Mingqian went up the mountain to deliver incense to the eldest princess for the last time.

Because the eldest princess likes to play chess with her, Wen Mingqian comes in person every time.

This is also the coldest time of the year, so Sang Er prepared the hand stove early and brought several plum blossom charcoal cakes with him.

Halfway through, snow began to fall from the sky, and the coldness became even stronger.

"Ms. Wen is here. Let's sit down and drink a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up." Aunt Cuichen's thin body was wrapped in a fat cotton robe, making her look even more lonely.

She is similar in age to the eldest princess, but she looks much older, and the hair on her temples is already white.

"Thank you Auntie," Wen Mingqian quickly took the tea with both hands, "How are you, Your Highness?"

"His Highness was thinking of you yesterday," Cuichen said, barely smiling, but with a very gentle temperament. "He said that this year, because of your fragrance, the days passed faster than usual."

The days on the mountain are long and monotonous, and everyone has to find something to occupy themselves.

After Wen Mingqian finished a cup of tea, the jade pot came out and said: "Ms. Wen, Your Highness invites you in."

Wen Mingqian stood up, but Cui Zhen gently stopped her: "Your Highness has had some wine, you should speak more carefully."

Wen Mingqian nodded gratefully and smelled a faint aroma of wine when she walked in. She was not good at tasting wine and didn't know what it was called, but she only felt that the wine had a subtle sweet aroma.

"Do you know how to drink wine?" The eldest princess's cheeks were slightly flushed, but her eyes were a little brighter than usual, making her look younger.

"A commoner woman is too drunk to drink, and she dare not make a mistake in front of His Highness." Wen Mingqian said as he knelt down and saluted the eldest princess.

"It's good not to drink. They say that drinking can relieve sorrow, but how can anyone really use wine to relieve sorrow for thousands of years?" The eldest princess smiled, "It's just a matter of deceiving oneself and deceiving others."


"Ever since women can remember, what they have heard the most is that life is short and life will be hard. Come to think of it, there are always too many unsatisfactory things in this life. It is no wonder that everyone wants to find a moment of peace in drunkenness." Wen Mingqian explain.

"Then have you ever drank to drown your sorrows?" The eldest princess looked at her and asked.

"I have." Wen Mingqian said truthfully, "more than once."

"Here, take this glass of wine." The eldest princess did not ask her why she was worried, she just said, "How do you like the taste of this wine?"

Wen Mingqian thanked him, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

"The aroma of this wine is fragrant and refreshing, but when it enters the throat, it is so spicy and bitter." Wen Mingqian said with difficulty, "A civilian woman really can't take a second sip."

"This is blood pear blossom brewed with the first snow in the desert and the blood of war horses," the eldest princess said with a smile. "It is the wine used by soldiers on the battlefield to pay homage to the dead. It cannot be brewed easily, nor can it be drunk easily..."

"No wonder, this wine is the most loyal, sincere, affectionate and sexual wine in the world. It's just that this wine is too heavy," Wen Mingqian said with tears in his eyes unconsciously, "The humble body of a common woman is really unbearable..."< br>


"Do you really think so?" the eldest princess asked.

"This is just the humble opinion of a civilian woman," Wen Mingqian said, "it makes His Highness laugh."

"Ultimate loyalty, sincerity, affection and sex..." The eldest princess muttered eight words, unconsciously lost in thought.

Wen Mingqian noticed that the eldest princess was particularly depressed today, so she couldn't ask any more questions. She just greeted her as usual: "The new year is approaching, and the woman specially prepared some spices to give to His Highness. It's not a small thing to show respect."


"Is it the rosin from the snow cliff again?" the eldest princess asked with hazy drunken eyes.

"There are this and some others." Wen Mingqian said, "If Your Highness likes it, you can use it for yourself. If you are not satisfied, you can also give it to others."

"This incense is too cold," the eldest princess suddenly shivered. "It's so cold that you can never get close to it. It's so misty and has no trace, which makes you feel miserable."

This was originally her favorite fragrance, but after getting drunk, she rejected it. .

Wen Mingqian lowered his head and remained silent. She knew that the eldest princess was in a bad mood now. If she couldn't speak to the other person's heart at this time, she might as well remain silent. "Can you play the piano?" the eldest princess suddenly asked.

"I learned some when I was young, but I haven't played for many years and I am already unfamiliar with it." Wen Mingqian said.

"It doesn't matter, just play me a song." The eldest princess sighed, "The weather is too cold, so cold that I can't stretch out my hand."

The eldest princess loves to play the piano, but now she just wants to listen to others play.

Wen Mingqian didn't refuse anymore. She cleaned her hands and burned a pot of incense. This was the warm incense she carried with her. It had the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind.

In the past, the eldest princess never used warm incense, but looking at the situation at this time, Wen Mingqian felt that warm incense was the most suitable.

The sound of the piano flows slowly, like the snowflakes falling outside the window, whispering softly, like weeping.

The eldest princess slowly closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep amidst the dense fragrance and the soft sound of the piano.

She had a beautiful dream, so beautiful that she forgot all her worries and worries.

In the dream, she was as light as a kite, and the only tie was in that person's hand.

"Brother Qingshen, when will you take me outside the Great Wall?"

"You are from a daughter's family and you are a princess. How did you get to that desolate and remote place?"

"Why can't I? If you can go, I can go too."

"It's necessary, it's too painful and dangerous there."

"As long as you stay with me, I'm not afraid."

"Then wait until I drive the Huru to Mobei. If there are no more border troubles, how about I accompany you on horseback to the Yinshan Mountains?"

"You promised me, don't break your promise!"

"I will never break my promise to you!"

"I'm waiting for you, waiting for you forever."

"I will definitely come back and fulfill your promise."

……

Wen Mingqian played three pieces of music in succession until Aunt Cuichen walked in gently and signaled her to stop.

Wen Mingqian stood up quietly, trying not to make any noise.

Aunt Cuichen carefully covered the eldest princess with a quilt, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief, and then motioned for Wen Mingqian to go out with her.

When they arrived outside, Wen Mingqian breathed a long sigh of relief: "Aunt, it's getting late, I should go down the mountain. If Your Highness needs anything else, please send someone down the mountain to tell me at any time."

"Don't go down the mountain if it's snowing so hard. Besides, what if His Highness wakes up and looks for you?" Cuichen thought for a while and said, "There are plenty of houses here, so you can stay here for one night!"


Wen Mingqian thought for a while and said, "Then just follow my aunt's arrangements."

That night, Wen Mingqian and Sang Er lived in a spacious house on the mountain. Fortunately, there was enough charcoal fire.

"Auntie, why do you think the eldest princess lives here? When you hear the noise, it's like a wild beast howling." Sang Er was puzzled, "Spring and summer are fine, but winter is so difficult!"


"I don't know. I think Your Highness has his reasons." Wen Mingqian said, "Bring the quilt over and bake it on the charcoal fire. Let's go to bed early!"
