Chapter 37: Going to the Appointment, III

The scenery in front of him was very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, Wu Yan suddenly remembered, isn't this the scenery painted on the wooden box. The only place in the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info is different from the wooden box, one is the poem on the pavilion, which is engraved with "Who built a lonely pavilion to look at the Yao Crane, and has not seen a return so far?", and the other is that there is an additional painting boat in this pool.

The painting boat is painted with red lacquer, the bow and stern are the shape of a four-corner pavilion, the cornices are warped, and the cabins are connected, and the bamboo curtains hang down from the carved hollow windows, blocking the view from outside the ship. There are carved railings at the bow and stern, the bow is a palace man wearing a gray shirt holding an oar, and at the stern there is a young man in a blue shirt sitting against the railing behind him, his legs are very leisurely on the railing, the sun shines on him, a golden light flashes, he unintentionally goes to Wu Yan's side, his calm face because there is no smile, looking from afar, only to feel that his eyebrows across the pond are like a cage of sorrow, very melancholy.

Wu Yan and he glanced at each other from a distance, and without thinking about it, he withdrew his gaze, raised his feet and continued to walk forward. But the blue-shirted boy on the boat gathered his feet, stood up, and shouted to the shore, "How lazy are you to get up so late?" Or how stupid are you to get up early and walk for most of the day? ”

There is no one on the shore, I should have said it to myself. But Wu Yan didn't turn his head, so the owner of the voice called out Wu Yan's name.

Wu Yan's footsteps slowed down, and he turned his head to look at the painting boat, but saw that the palace man holding the oars was still on the bow of the boat, slowly rowing the boat to the shore, but the figure of the blue-shirted boy was no longer visible at the stern. Could it be that the person who gave himself a gift and asked him to come to Wanghe Pavilion was Xia Zihe? Maybe it could only be him, the people in the Dayong Palace in Jiankang City who knew him, and how many people could have such a valuable thing?

But at this moment, she heard that there seemed to be movement behind her, and when she looked back, a ball of orange red jumped into her sight first, and it was Jingxiu again, so narrow that the ghost was almost gone. Wu Yan and Jing Xiu looked at each other, but Jing Xiu opened her mouth first, she glanced at Wu Yan's body, and said, "Who are you talking to, I heard someone call your name from afar, it seems that you are still a man." ”

She didn't finish speaking, she couldn't help but roll her eyes slightly, Wu Yan saw it in her eyes, glanced at the painting boat that was getting closer and closer, but saw that the curtain on the painting boat was lifted, and the blue-shirted young man folded the fan in his hand to gently lift the boat curtain, revealing half of his body, and then walked out of the cabin and stood on the bow of the boat.

Wu Yan subconsciously looked back at Jingxiu, but saw that she was waiting for herself to speak, and did not notice the painting boat close to her side, thinking that she had a little misunderstanding of herself, if she saw herself and the young man in blue shirt together again at this moment, I don't know what to think about, and what will happen when the time comes. Wu Yan rolled her eyes, smiled, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Fortunately, you're here, I was just going to look for you, oh, someone is looking for you." ”

"Someone, who's going to look for me? You can't make it up. ”

Jing Xiu glanced at Wu Yan, a little disapproving, but more proud. She didn't seem to believe how powerful the person Wu Yan said about finding her could be, but when she turned her head to see the boy on the painting boat, she almost bit her tongue in surprise.

"Three...... Prince, Jingxiu has seen the three princes. ”

However, Xia Zihe didn't look at Jing Xiu, his eyes fell on Wu Yan, and he didn't seem to see Jing Xiu, or more likely, he directly treated Jing Xiu as air. Whether to pretend not to hear or not to hear is a difficult question to tell.

Jing Xiu didn't expect Xia Zihe to ignore herself so directly, her self-esteem was hurt, and she was sad or angry, her white and tender little face quickly turned red again, she glanced at Wu Yan angrily, and said, "You don't lie to me, he obviously called your name, are you stupid to me......?"

Wu Yan didn't bother to listen to her long string of words, and directly and unceremoniously gave Jingxiu's self-esteem another blow, "It's just that when you're stupid, can I lie to you in front of him?" Just now he was looking for you, so he called me, let me go to you." If you don't believe me, you go on the boat and ask him. ”

Xia Zihe saw that Wu Yan had been talking to others at this time, and he didn't pay attention to himself at all, he seemed to be a little impatient, and shouted again, "That ...... in a blue dress"

"Listen, tell me to urge you!" Wu Yan immediately added, Jing Xiu hesitated and didn't believe it, but who would deceive people in front of the prince, she thought about it, and seemed to believe it, Wu Yan saw her turn around and showed a natural smile to Xia Zihe on the painting boat. And she herself immediately took this opportunity to turn around and leave. After all, Xia Ziyan has already put it bluntly, he can't be good friends with him, so how far can this Xia Zihe be avoided.

The painting boat slowly stopped on the shore, Xia Zihe saw that Wu Yan avoided it, but Jing Xiu came over, and he was even more happy and ready to step on his painting boat, he frowned slightly, and said unhappily, "Presumptuous, did I let you come on the boat?"

Jingxiu stayed on the shore, her outstretched feet stopped in mid-air awkwardly, her little face was so red as if she had just been soaked in boiling water, she didn't dare to raise her head to look at Xia Zihe in front of her, she just turned around and stared at Wu Yan, who was about to walk away, and a pair of angry eyes seemed to be scolding, "liar". On the contrary, Xia Zihe, who was behind Jing Xiu, raised his chin and smiled at Wu Yan very clearly, and one or two strands of broken hair fell on his forehead, covering up the smugness that flashed in his eyes.

Wu Yan scolded in his heart, but he also forgot that he was also a troublemaker. Xia Zihe saw that Wu Yan was standing, and stretched out his index finger to Wu Yan and hooked it, Wu Yan glanced at Jing Xiu on the side, and nodded helplessly. The smile on Xia Zihe's face brightened a little at this time, and he suddenly let out an "oh", and said leisurely, "I seem to have just seen the second brother looking for you, so I kindly helped him see where you are." ”

Hearing this, Jing Xiu turned her head to look at Xia Zihe, and whispered, "But I saw him in the Imperial Garden just now, and he didn't look like he was looking for me." ”

Xia Zihe raised a smile, "You don't understand", and urged, "Go quickly, maybe it's late, it's really none of your business." ”

When Jing Xiu heard this, she hurriedly gave another salute, walked hurriedly, and turned around and left with the little maid, leaving Wu Yan and Xia Zihe facing each other, one full of desire to leave, and the other speaking calmly.

"Last time was my mother's birthday, I didn't have time to accompany you, I happened to get a whip a few days ago, I think it's the most suitable for you. The boy stood on the boat, leaning lazily against the railing, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you like it?"

When Wu Yan heard this, he quickly took off the whip on his waist and handed it over, "Return the whip to you, and I will return the wooden box to its original owner another day." ”

The golden sunlight fell on Xia Zihe's face, and he couldn't see any emotion calmly, he let out a faint "oh", nodded, naturally took the whip from Wu Yan's hand, and asked lightly, "Why, don't you come up and have a sip of tea?"
