Chapter 38: Chung Yeung Festival 2
Because of Cheng Yiying's words, Leng Qing began to consciously and gradually reduce the number of times she went to Vermilion Garden, and by yesterday, Leng Qing basically never stepped out of the courtyard gate of Rongjia Garden, and nested in Rongjia Garden for a whole day.

Except for Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying, in this huge prince's mansion, Leng Qing has no acquaintances.
Leng Qing and Cheng Yiying's side are barely familiar with Qing He, but Qing He usually has to serve Cheng Yiying, and he has no free time at all. And Qinghe is a person who knows how to advance and retreat, every time he sees Leng Qing, he first salutes Leng Qing, and says "Leng girl" in a proper manner, and if there is any superfluity, Qinghe never says much.
Even Qing He didn't dare to chat with Leng Qing, and the rest of the palace maids in the prince's mansion didn't dare to chat with Leng Qing.
Therefore, in this prince's mansion, Leng Qing is really boring and lonely.
Because it was too leisurely, Leng Qing couldn't help but think, I don't know how Yan Ziming, Yan Qingqiu, Wang Quan, and Muwen are doing now?
I don't know how Yan Qingqiu is doing now, does she eat and rest on time every day? Is it that she is not staring at her, Yan Qingqiu stays in bed every day until three poles in the sun? And has the child in her belly grown up healthily? Has Yan Ziming treated their mother and son (daughter) well?
Today is the Double Ninth Festival, I don't know how Yan Ziming and Wang Quan spent the festival? But according to Wang Quan's tossing temperament of not playing the house and revealing tiles for three days, there must be no peace in the palace......
And Muwen, who is so big and so silent, is not good. Fortunately, there is a noisy Wang Quan, and from time to time something will come out, otherwise Mu Wen doesn't know what to do......
It's okay not to think about it, thinking about it like this, Leng Qing realized that unconsciously, she had already put Yan Ziming, Yan Qingqiu, Wang Quan, and Muwen into her heart......
Because she had them all in her heart, she wanted to know so much, and wondered if each of them was okay now, and wondered if they missed her as much as she missed them......
By the way, there is also Zhu Zimo, the huge Zhu Mansion, now there is only Zhu Zimo as the master, and I don't know how Zhu Zimo spent this year's Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival?
There is also Lin Xiaoyang, when he was in the Red Ice Country before, Yan Ziming came to the letter saying that Lin Xiaoyang was seriously injured, and later after he and Zhu Zimo found Lin Xiaoyang, they asked Lin Xiaoyang and Zhu Zimo to go back to Kyoto Creping in Daliang Country together, thinking that Lin Xiaoyang should live in Zhu's Mansion now, right?
With Lin Xiaoyang by his side, at least Zhu Zimo shouldn't be lonely this Double Ninth Festival......
Ahhh......!!h
"Miss Leng?" Just when Leng Qing couldn't help but feel that her life was really lonely now, and no one even accompanied her during the Double Ninth Festival, a clear and modest male voice suddenly came into Leng Qing's ears.
This side, sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, supporting his chin with his hands, looking up at the blue sky and white clouds above his head, looking back, he saw that under the bright sun, at the gate of the courtyard of Rongjia Garden, with high black hair, wearing a blue-gray long Confucian shirt, stepping on blue-gray soap boots, and holding a bamboo Xiao Liang Shengxiao stood behind her with a smile.
In other words, for Liang Shengxiao, Leng Qing is really powerless to complain.
Yan Ziming told Leng Qing about Liang Shengxiao's situation before, and Leng Qing relied on her strong memory to remember all the details firmly. Therefore, when Leng Qing saw Liang Shengxiao appear in the Prince's Mansion a few days ago, and learned that Liang Shengxiao also lived in the Prince's Mansion, Leng Qing was a little confused.
Leng Qing couldn't understand, according to the rules of the royal dynasties in Chinese history, shouldn't the prince who has no title, no fiefdom mansion, and no marriage yet live in the palace?
But why is it that in this different world called "Tiancheng Continent", Liang Shengxiao, a prince who has no title, no fiefdom mansion, and has not yet become married, can live in the prince's mansion in a grand manner? Could it be that all the courtiers of the Great Liang Kingdom are dead?
Of course, Liang Shengxiao wants to live in Liang Shengde's prince's mansion, and Leng Qing can't care about it, because this is the matter of Liang Shengde and Liang Shengxiao's brothers, and it is the matter of the royal family of the Great Liang Kingdom, and it has nothing to do with her, an outsider.
But as of today, Leng Qing has lived in the Rongjia Garden of the Prince's Mansion for five days, and this Liang Shengxiao has visited Leng Qing's Rongjia Garden three times, and Leng Qing is a little puzzled.
Plus this time today, Liang Shengxiao came to Rongjiayuan four times in total. The first three times Liang Shengxiao came to Rongjiayuan, it was not for anything important, but to talk to Leng Qing about music and ensemble music.
It is estimated that Liang Shengxiao heard from Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying that Leng Qing is a pianist and is good at playing the piano, and Liang Shengxiao is good at playing the flute.
Faced with the invitation of the prince of a country to play the music, Leng Qing felt that she was now living in the prince's mansion, and she was really embarrassed to refuse the invitation of Liang Shengde's younger brother, so she could only agree to Liang Shengxiao, and played the song of Qin Xiao and Ming with Liang Shengxiao.
The result may be that the effect of the first ensemble is too ideal, Liang Shengxiao is energetic, and he looks for Leng Qing three times in a row, regardless of the defense of men and women. It is estimated that Liang Shengxiao's visit to Rongjia Garden is too frequent, which provokes many palace maids and eunuchs in the prince's mansion to start discussing whether the relationship between Liang Shengxiao and Leng Qing is anything unpleasant.
Facing the conjectures of those palace maids and eunuchs, Leng Qing really had a headache, but she couldn't take the initiative to explain that she had nothing to do with Liang Shengxiao. Because sometimes there are some things that can't be said more, and if you talk too much, the more you describe them, the darker they become.
So today, seeing Liang Shengxiao coming to Rongjiayuan to look for her again, and smiling like a spring breeze, Leng Qing really didn't know what expression to put on to face Liang Shengxiao. Leng Qing wanted to look up to the sky and sigh: Can she drive Liang Shengxiao out of Rongjia Garden? ?
Then again,
Seeing that the person who came was Liang Shengxiao, no matter how much Leng Qing slandered in her heart, it was impossible to show it on her face.
Not to mention that Liang Shengxiao's identity is there, it is impossible for Leng Qing to offend the prince of a country. is just about the relationship between Liang Shengde and Liang Shengxiao, Leng Qing has no reason to offend Liang Shengxiao-
As Cheng Yiying told Leng Qing before, Liang Shengde and Liang Shengxiao are indeed brothers and sisters and have a great relationship, and Leng Qing is now under the fence, not only occupying Liang Shengde's yard for nothing, but also providing Liang Shengde's daily food, drink, and medicine, and Leng Qing will offend Liang Shengxiao when she is full.
So, seeing Leng Qing, who was sitting at the stone table, immediately stood up and saluted Liang Shengxiao, and said to Liang Shengxiao with a smile on his face: "Why are the Seven Princes here?" As she spoke, Leng Qing glanced at the bamboo Xiao that Liang Shengxiao was holding in her hand, and added with a smile: "You're here to find my ensemble again?" ā
Leng Qing said this, and as soon as her body turned, she wanted to go into the house to get the piano. However, Leng Qing only took a step at her feet, and was stopped by Liang Shengxiao's shout of "cold girl".
In response, Leng Qing turned around, looked at Liang Shengxiao standing at the gate of the courtyard through half of the lush courtyard, did not speak, and only looked at Liang Shengxiao with inquiring eyes.
On that side, in the face of Leng Qing's inquiring eyes, Liang Shengxiao, who was smiling, said to Leng Qing in such a gentle voice: "Miss Leng, today is the Double Ninth Festival, I wonder if Miss Leng can enjoy her face and travel with me?"
On this side, hearing Liang Shengxiao's question, Leng Qing hesitated for two seconds before asking, "Hmm...... Are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess going?" Leng Qing's plan was that if Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying didn't go, then she wouldn't go either.
On that side, it was Liang Shengxiao's clear and modest voice that answered Leng Qing's question: "The palace issued an order yesterday to let the eldest brother and the princess enter the palace today for the festival, so the eldest brother and the princess went to the palace early this morning." ā
After Liang Shengxiao finished speaking so unhurriedly, Leng Qing's first thought was to ask Liang Shengxiao, why did Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying both enter the palace for the festival, but he Liang Shengxiao did not enter the palace for the festival?
No matter how slanderous she was in her heart, Leng Qing still maintained a smile on her lips, and said humbly and politely to Liang Shengxiao who was standing at the gate of the courtyard across half of the courtyard: "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess go together, it will be nothing, but I have only been in Xuanping City for half a month, and I am not familiar with Xuanping City, so I may not be able to accompany the Seventh Prince." ā
Adhering to the idea that if Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying don't go, then she won't go either, Leng Qing politely declined Liang Shengxiao's invitation to travel.
On that side, in the face of Leng Qing's euphemistic refusal, Liang Shengxiao said with a gentle smile: "Miss Leng is really humble when she says this. Compared with Miss Leng, who has been studying art abroad for ten years, and has returned so far, she has long been unfamiliar with everything in Kyoto, and even which street in Kyoto is the most prosperous now, I don't know. ā
"In that case, then I can't accompany the Seven Princes on a trip. If I lose the Seventh Prince, I can't afford to take this responsibility. Back to Liang Shengxiao, Leng Qing was full of smiles, but full of words of rejection.
On that side, Liang Shengxiao, who was standing at the gate of the courtyard, heard this, smiled and raised her eyebrows, and asked softly: "What, Miss Leng is going to take her out and leave it alone?"
I didn't expect Liang Shengxiao to ask such a question, Leng Qing, who was standing at the stone table in the lush courtyard, was slightly stunned for a moment before laughing and said: "The Seventh Prince is joking, even if I borrow ten more guts, I don't dare to throw down the prince of a country! ā
On that side, seeing that Liang Shengxiao nodded slightly, he responded with a smile: "In this way, it is enough." In a blink of an eye, it was Liang Shengxiao, who was smiling on his lips, who said categorically: "Miss Leng, let's go, go out for a walk." ā
After saying this, Liang Shengxiao didn't wait for Leng Qing, and turned away from this Rong Jia Garden.
Here, Leng Qing, who was standing at the stone table in the lush courtyard, looked at Liang Shengxiao's back in a daze, and thought in a daze: When did she promise Liang Shengxiao to accompany her on a trip? She has been rejecting Liang Shengxiao, okay!! But Liang Shengxiao didn't seem to take her refusal to heart at all, and turned around and left so neatly! Sure enough, no matter how gentle and humble the face of the children of the royal family is, there is a common problem of domineering!
Although she was so slanderous in her heart, when Liang Shengxiao, who was far away, suddenly stopped and looked back at her, Leng Qing still raised her legs in the end, and walked towards Liang Shengxiao helplessly......
Out of Rongjia Garden, Leng Qing lowered her head all the way and walked silently behind Liang Shengxiao.
Liang Shengxiao, who was walking in front of Leng Qing, did not take the initiative to talk to Leng Qing, and let the atmosphere around him be silent and condensed.
Although Leng Qing lived in the Prince's Mansion for five days, Leng Qing was not familiar with the Prince's Mansion, at most she remembered how to walk the road from Rongjia Garden, where she lived, to Vermilion Bird Garden, Cheng Yiying, as for the road out of the mansion, Leng Qing didn't know it at all.
When Leng Qing noticed how the surrounding environment was becoming more and more secluded, and she couldn't even see a palace maid or eunuch or servant, Liang Shengxiao, who was walking in front of Leng Qing, suddenly stopped, and even Leng Qing could only stop in a hurry.
Without waiting for Leng Qing to raise his head, Leng Qing first heard Liang Shengxiao say this in his clear and humble voice: "Trouble Uncle Zhang to open the door." ā
At this side, as soon as Leng Qing raised her head, she saw that in front of an old wooden door that was only two meters high and one meter wide, an old man with gray hair was waving his hand to Liang Shengxiao who was standing in front of her with a panicked face and said: "Don't dare, don't dare! The villain has a humble identity, but he doesn't dare to recognize the 'Uncle Zhang' of the Seventh Prince." ā
With a wave of his hand, the old man neatly took out the key and opened the brass lock hanging from the wooden door behind him.
While opening the wooden door, the old man said to Liang Shengxiao in a respectful voice, "Seventh Prince, please." ā
At this time, Liang Shengxiao thanked the old man, then raised his feet and walked towards the open wooden door. Seeing this, Leng Qing, who was standing behind Liang Shengxiao, naturally followed suit.
Out of the wooden door, Leng Qing found that behind the door was a narrow alley paved with bluestone slabs.
The alley is only about one meter wide, and on one side is the wall of the Prince's Mansion, and on the other side is the wall where the wall is cold, in short, the walls on both sides are five or six meters high. The alley is very long, Leng Qing's right hand side is a high wall, which seals the alley, looking towards the left hand side, you can only see that the exit of the alley is far away, visually, about two hundred meters away.
It is estimated that the walls on both sides are too high, and the alley is narrow, and the sunlight outside cannot shine in, and the whole alley looks a little dim.
After looking at the surrounding environment clearly, Leng Qing had a little bit in his heart. So, I saw Leng Qing look at Liang Shengxiao, who was standing on her left, and asked him, "This is the back door of the Prince's Mansion?"
Bowing his head towards Leng Qing, Liang Shengxiao smiled slightly and said, "Exactly." ā
With that, Liang Shengxiao raised his foot, turned to the left-hand side, and walked towards the only exit of the alley......
