In the garden of the Shenjiang Mansion that was very lively just now, there were the sounds of children chasing and playing, and there were the voices of old friends laughing and joking after a long absence. At this time, there is silence again, only the early autumn breeze blows the garden, and there are autumn insects chirping desperately, as if to keep this season. When it was almost noon, under the leadership of Yue Qianming, a few people went out of the Nai He Garden, and walked towards the banquet hall of the Shenjiang Mansion, when a few people came, there was already a middle-aged woman waiting in the banquet hall, although the woman's appearance was not very outstanding, but her eyes were bright and moving, her manners were generous, she was wearing a slightly simple red dress, and there was a slight heroic spirit between her eyebrows, like a kapok Tingting independent.

Yue Wujing, who was sweating profusely with Jiang Chen and Wei Chide, ran over happily, hugged the woman's waist and said coquettishly: "Mother, I'm hungry." Yue Qianming stepped forward and grabbed the woman's left hand and introduced it to Zhao Qin'er: "This is a clumsy placket, called Lu Xiangning." He also introduced to Lu Xiangning: "This is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, the sister of the king." ”

Lu Xiangning was about to step forward to salute, Zhao Qin'er hurriedly stepped forward to stop, took Lu Xiangning's hand, pointed at Yue Qianming with one hand and said with a smile: "What Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, I call him Brother Yue, I should call you sister-in-law, you can call me Lingqin, you can also call me Qin'er." ”

Lu Xiangning ran out of ideas for a while, looked back at Yue Qianming, Yue Qianming smiled helplessly and said: "Forget it, it's good to be natural in front of this girl, you are comfortable, and she also feels comfortable." ”

Lu Xiangning suddenly relaxed a lot, but carefully looked at Zhao Qin'er for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "When I first entered the imperial capital, I heard all kinds of market legends about you, and now I have to meet him, and it is really as rumored." I was also impatient with those rules, but I met a guy who took the rules very seriously. ”

Zhao Qin'er also smiled and followed her words and said, "Then you don't know when this guy was young...... When he was about to continue, Yue Qianming hurriedly coughed and stepped forward and said, "Let's go eat first! ”

Zhao Qin'er smiled and said to Yue Qianming: "Okay, let's not talk about it, save some face for you now, and I'll talk to my sister-in-law about your troubles in private another day." Yue Qianming glanced at Zhao Qin'er helplessly, led Zhao Qin'er into the room, and someone took Jiang Chen and the three of them and Xiangming to another room next door. A round table was placed in the middle of the room, and all kinds of fragrant delicacies were already placed on the table, Yue Qianming placed Zhao Qin'er on the main seat, and he and Lu Xiangning sat on both sides. At this time, someone from the palace came in and reported: "Commander Wei Chi has arrived. Yue Qianming got up to greet him.

Lu Xiangning explained to Zhao Qin'er: "I heard that you came suddenly, I didn't make much preparations, today happened to be Yu Chi Zhongming's commander Xiu Mu, Qianming invited him to accompany him, and he didn't let me tell Yu Chi who accompanied him, don't mind if there is any rudeness." This Qianming has never been like this, I don't know what's wrong today?"

Zhao Qin'er laughed regardless of her image: "You still don't understand, this is Yue Qianming's nature, when we used to play pranks, he came up with most of his ideas, and when he was bad, he always looked serious." Now I'm going to tease that big fat man again, but I don't know if the fat man is thin now. I told him that if he was as fat as he used to be when we said goodbye, I would cut off all the fat from him with a knife. Lu Xiangning was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "Then I have to prepare a knife for you now." ”

As the two were talking, they walked in with Yue Qianming A man wearing a black arrow sleeve suit and a cyan spirit jade belt around his waist, the biggest feature of this man's whole body is the huge belly, which is simply described as a large version of Wei Chide.

When Wei Chi Zhongming entered the door, he was asking Yue Qianming in a loud voice: "Old Yue, I see what kind of distinguished guests are coming to your house today, and you have to ask me to accompany you, have you prepared the Qianzhi fish I want to eat?"

Yue Qianming had a slight smile in his eyes, did not speak, and waved his head to Yu Chi Zhongming, signaling him to look at Zhao Qin'er sitting on the main seat, Yu Chi Zhongming followed Yue Qianming's look, first trembled, thought that he was dazzled and hurriedly rubbed his eyes to look carefully, after confirming that it was indeed Zhao Qin'er who was sitting in the position, and then looked at the posture of Wei Chi Zhongming at this time, as if he was ready to take the door at any time, although he was fat but dexterous.

Zhao Qin'er had a hint of banter in her eyes, but she said in a very majestic tone: "When Commander Yu Chi saw this palace, he didn't salute. Lu Xiangning on the side also watched with a smile as Zhao Qin'er played tricks on the commander of the forbidden army, and Wei Chi Zhongming also seemed to be afraid of Zhao Qin'er.

But he heard Yue Qianming say: "Don't scare him, you see how can he still have the prestige of a great commander like this." Zhao Qin'er really couldn't pretend to be able to do it anymore and chuckled: "Brother Yue, you just protect him, this fat man is a master who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger, I remember that when I left, I left a letter for each of you, asking you to supervise this dead fat man to lose weight, why is he fatter than before, and I don't know what the eldest brother thinks of handing over the palace forbidden army to him to manage, which is really detrimental to the royal prestige." ”

After Yue Qianming pulled Wei Chi Zhongming to sit down, he joked: "It's not that you don't know his temperament, and talking about Zen is 'live up to the food'." At the beginning, you forced him to lose weight, saying that it would damage the image of the team, and almost didn't spoil him. After you left, he went to Zhenyulou by himself to eat for three days and three nights before coming out, Kong Yu and I, as well as Zhao Pu and Qianyuan, were busy cleaning up the mess you left behind, how could I have time to care about him. The child born now has not only inherited his talent, but even that mantra, just the little fat man you just met. ”

Zhao Qin'er looked at Yu Chi Zhongming with a look of hatred and hatred, and said, "I have never seen such a greedy and fat spiritual cultivator as you. When Yu Chi Zhongming heard Zhao Qin'er say this, he smiled with him, and finally reduced a little of the shadow in his heart when he first saw Zhao Qin's childhood. Thinking of the three years when Zhao Qin'er forced herself to lose weight, she had to enter the illusion arranged by Zhao Qin'er every day to be baptized, she could only eat one meal a day, there was no meat, and the rest of the time could only be spent by meditation and cultivation, and every time Zhao Qin'er found out that she was secretly eating, she was beaten violently, and she couldn't beat her, and now she feels fear when she thinks of the three years when she doesn't know the taste of meat. When I heard the news of Zhao Qin'er's return, I remembered the letter that Zhao Qin'er left for herself, and the frightened Wei Chi Zhongming said that he was sick for two months in a row, and he didn't dare to go to the palace to be on duty, so he hid in the village outside the city, and only dared to eat green vegetables and tofu, but he was also frightened by the people in the house, thinking that his master was really sick. Later, I heard that Zhao Qin'er has not asked about the world since he came back, and the monarch Zhao Lingyun had something to arrange for him, so he came back from outside the city.

Next to Lu Xiangning listened to the interesting things between the three of them, he had already laughed back and forth, although it was only the first time he saw Zhao Qin'er, but he couldn't take care of it so much, she was originally a cheerful and lively person, although she has become a mother, her personality has not changed in the slightest. And Yue Qianming admired her character of daring to love and hate, so he fell in love with her, the two of them met on the battlefield and fell in love with each other in times of crisis. Yue Qianming was also helpless to see that he was still whispering to Zhao Qin'er to ask about the childhood fun between them, but he was also happy to see that she got along so well with her childhood best companion. Since Zhao Qin'er returned to Feng'an City, she has rarely moved, on the one hand, because of the death of her lover, on the other hand, because Jiang Chen has to seize the time to cultivate to deal with emergencies that come at any time, on the other hand, the years are getting older, and the old people in the past have all gone their separate ways, or they are in important positions, and it is not appropriate to move around more. All kinds of worries make people gradually become a little different, when I first met Yue Qianming, because I knew each other when I was young, I was naturally close, but after all, everyone is old, and Zhao Qin'er has already restrained a lot of childhood temperament. Now it's hard to meet a person with a similar temperament as himself, although it is the first acquaintance, but it seems to be a close friend who has known each other for many years, and there is no junior by his side, Zhao Qin'er's nature is also completely released.

While talking to Lu Xiangning about the interesting story of Yue Qianming and Wei Chi when the fat man was young, he made a few jokes about the current two of them, and the atmosphere at the dinner table gradually became lively, you said that I was a bad thing, I refuted you a few words, and then broke out a more embarrassing thing about you, and the laughter between several people continued to be interested, and between pushing the cup and changing the lamp, the four of them had already drunk a lot of spiritual brew.

Suddenly, a hearty voice outside the door shouted: "Lao Yue, don't call me when you drink, it's not interesting enough, but I smell the smell of a hundred years of osmanthus spiritual spring brewing outside your house." ”

Yue Qianming smiled when he heard the voice and said to Zhao Qin'er: "It's that kid from Kongyu who is here, he should be coming for you." ”

Then a man dressed in white, with a white face and beard, who could not tell his actual age, pushed straight through the door, although his face was full of smiles, but with a momentum of not being angry and arrogant, and a coldness that rejected people, it could be seen at a glance that this person was in a high position, but he was also a lonely and arrogant person. After Yue Qianming saw the man come in, he asked with a smile in his eyes: "Kong Yu, I sent someone to call you, and you yourself excused yourself and said that you have something to do." I don't think you came to me today for my wine, but for people, right?" Because Yue Qianming and Qin Kongyu have been friends for many years, but Qin Kongyu has not been married for many years, he often comes to the Shenjiang Mansion in the north of the town to eat and drink, and everyone in the mansion is also familiar with it, and he was originally going to report it, but he was stopped by Qin Kongyu, and after asking the place, he walked to the banquet hall of the Shenjiang Mansion.

Qin Kongyu didn't say anything, he smiled and glanced at Zhao Qin'er, who was drunk and crimson, and walked to an empty seat and sat down, but Zhao Qin'er didn't look at him, just snorted lightly. When Zhao Qin'er was leaving, the two had some awkward trouble, and Zhao Qin'er now sees that he still has some residual anger.

Yue Qianming glanced at the two of them, and shook his head funny, they are not young, they are still so childish, and they are speechless, but Lu Xiangning, who was sitting next to Zhao Qin'er, was full of gossip, there is a situation between these two people, but it is not easy to ask now. Yue Qianming gave Qin Kongyu a glass of wine and said, "Haven't you been busy with the redeployment of the southern border recently? ”

Qin Kongyu waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about official business today, headache, drink, drink." As he spoke, he took a glass of wine and praised it, "Good wine." ”

Zhao Qin'er put on a face and said to Qin Kongyu: "Big brother is anxious about the affairs of the southern border every day, and he can't sleep well, you still have this spare time to drink here." Although the two haven't seen each other for many years, Zhao Qin'er has never been polite to him.

Although Qin Kongyu did like Zhao Qin'er a little, the arrogant personality he had cultivated over the years couldn't help it, he lowered his head and said with a wine glass: "Haven't you already cultivated yourself and don't ask about the world?"

Zhao Qin'er said: "I don't want to get involved in your affairs now, it's been so many years, and I still haven't grown, so I'll solve it myself." ”

The table was suddenly a little dull, and Wei Chi Zhongming had been eating and drinking, not participating in the fight between the two of them, and he was used to pinching the two when they met. Yue Qianming quipped: "You two haven't seen each other for many years, and you're still like this, come, come, drink, and only talk about the old days today, not about business." As he spoke, he filled Qin Kongyu's wine glass with wine, picked up his own and said, "Come, make a toast to today's reunion." Everyone drank it all.

After everyone put down their wine glasses, they glanced at Qin Kongyu and said, "It's hard for me to leave the palace, since he is here, invite Zhao Pu and Qianyuan as well!"

Yue Qianming said: " Zhao Pu's kid put a good little county king inappropriately, and Jun asked for a remote and poor county to run to be a county order, Jun Shang called him back to the imperial capital several times to serve the old prince, that guy just didn't come back, but I heard that the political performance is good, the county has changed the style of the past, and all the people have sent it to the imperial capital to show off the political achievements for the kid, as for the abyss, you go the second year that the kid also left, saying that he will travel all over the Dihao continent in his lifetime, so far there is no news, you also know that the boy in the abyss is the most mysterious one among my people, in addition to getting along with a few of us, he treats others with a face that is not close to the living。 ”

While a few people were chatting, Qin Kongyu asked Zhao Qin'er about the past few years, Zhao Qin'er just briefly recounted, although the three old friends were curious, but Zhao Qin'er didn't elaborate, and everyone had to give up. Reminisced about some interesting things back then, as well as the wonderful things about fighting with Zhao Lingwu back then.

In the end, Zhao Lingyun actually went out of the palace and came to the Shenjiang Mansion, everyone was a little restrained, and even Zhao Qin'er blamed his eldest brother for coming to ruin the atmosphere. Zhao Lingyun had to tell everyone that today is only about the friendship of friends, regardless of monarchs and ministers. Then he poured himself three glasses of his belated penalty wine, and drank it all. Slowly, everyone got used to it. The party has also arrived, and the few people who had stirred up the upper echelons of Zhao Xin's country back then are now in high positions, but they are not prominent, drinking happily, the wine glass is empty and filled, and the wine jar is empty and summons people to move from the wine cellar. Jiang Chen and the others heard loud laughter from next door from time to time, and foul language burst out. For a trivial matter back then, several people fought with red faces, reprimanded each other for talking nonsense, and their voices went straight to the sky.
