After Zhan Xiaoning finished dancing, everyone began to play alone, or began to compose poems one by one, because for them, plum blossom appreciation is possible at any time, but when appreciating plum blossoms, they can also do some other things together, so that they will not waste time, and they will not feel that only plum blossoms will seem monotonous.

"Okay, this family portrait has also been painted, that is, all the looks you just showed outside the pavilion have been drawn, and then put together a family photo when you enjoy the plum blossoms, do you come to take a look, do you feel satisfied?" After painting the flute in Yan Qihao's hand, Zhan Xiaoyan said to everyone. But since she is painting, of course there will be no her in this family portrait, but she is also willing to draw her family one by one.

"Xiaoyan, your painting skills still haven't regressed, this family portrait is very good, and the appearance of all of us is very realistic, even if it's just painting, it's very real. But smile, you've always been painting us, and now you can do something you like, let me or Yan boy, draw your appearance, and add it to this family photo, how can our family photo be without you? Guan Lao said after looking at the family photo.

"Good! That Red Shadow, you go to the carriage and bring the chessboard, I want to play a good game of chess with Grandpa. Because I think you've all done so much, it's time to calm down and rest, so I can play chess with grandpa. And at this time, the wind was already stronger, but the sun was hiding in the clouds, so it was a little cool, and we tried not to get frozen. ”

Zhan smiled and agreed, and suddenly thought of what he was going to do. Because since the piano, flute, flute and dancing have all been performed, she chose to play chess, and she didn't want to move around too much at this time, so she sat in the pavilion all the time and played a game of chess quietly with her grandfather, which was also very good!

Red Shadow quickly brought the chessboard over, and Zhan Xiaoyan and Guan Lao started to play chess, Zhan Xiaoyan was white, and Guan Lao was black. The grandfather and grandson have also played many games of chess before, but winning or losing is not certain, and when they played chess before, Zhan Xiaoyu and the three of them, or Yan Qihao, have all seen it before, so everyone will also pay attention to the win or loss this time, and want to see if the grandfather wins, or the granddaughter of Zhan Xiaoyan will win once.

A game of chess has to be played for at least half an hour, which is still calculated at the fastest speed, if it is longer, two hours, or most of the day is possible. And the reason why it takes so long to play a game of chess is because the further you go, the longer the person who plays the game will think. Because in the back, in order not to let themselves lose, or not to lose so quickly, they will be very serious about every move they fall, which is why from a game of chess, you can see what a person's character is.

"Girl, I admit defeat." Guan Lao took the sunspot and thought for a quarter of an hour, and finally determined that he had no way back, so he happily admitted defeat. Because the white pieces on the chessboard already occupy most of the chessboard, and there are a lot of black pieces surrounded, although Zhan Xiaoyan did not pick up the chess pieces, the book of this game of chess should have been divided five moves ago. However, because Guan Lao did not take the initiative to admit defeat, Zhan Xiaoyan did not say it, and now that he has admitted defeat, this game of chess is over. Yan Qihao and Zhan Xiaoyu began to pack up the chess pieces, and it was already less than three minutes at this time, and it was almost time for them to go back.

"Okay, the hour is almost up, we have enjoyed the plum blossoms, we have played all the musical instruments, we have played chess, and we have eaten all the snacks, so now we will almost go back! I've already drawn five of them, and everyone's stomachs are hungry now, so it's time to go back to lunch. When Yan Qihao put away all the chess pieces, he said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go back, find a restaurant and have lunch, and then go home." When we went out, we also told my grandmother that we wouldn't go back to eat at noon, so we went to [Wanghu Tower] to have lunch, where the vegetarian dishes were good, so even if you can't eat greasy with a smile, vegetarian dishes can be eaten. Yan Qihao said, put away the paintings painted by Zhan Xiaoyan, and the others put away the teapots and everything one by one, and finally put on their cloaks, and everyone went out of the pavilion one by one, out of the entrance of the plum garden, and left here by carriage.

"Master, they're gone!" However, just after Zhan Xiaoyan and his party left the plum garden, a subordinate walked to Nan Haocheng's side and said. Although Yan Qihao had no intention of intersecting with them, but because of the appearance of such a group of people, Nan Haocheng could not help but pay attention, and he had already painted the portraits of Yan Qihao and his party at this time, and planned to ask his father when he entered the palace at night.

"Okay, you go and find out where they live now, remember, just find out, don't let them find you, don't bother them, and come back when you find out." Nan Haocheng commanded. Because if they are just ordinary people, then there is no need to bother them, but if it is someone who even the father is surprised, then it is definitely not a simple person, and it is necessary to pay attention to it at this time. But now it is obvious that they will not be ordinary people, so the development of things should develop as he expected, and now everything is just arranged.

Zhan Xiaoyan and the others here naturally didn't know that they had been noticed, even if they knew, since the other party had no malicious intentions, at least they would be a little troublesome, and it wasn't too much trouble. At this time, they had already arrived at the [Wanghu Tower], and after Xiao Er led them to the box, the person who ordered the food was Yan Qihao. Although he ordered the dishes alone, he just ordered one plate of everyone's favorite dishes, and ordered three other plates of vegetarian dishes for Zhan Xiaoyan. The other dishes weren't necessarily all greasy, but with these three vegetarian dishes, she was able to eat more.

"Sister, why is this place called [Wanghu Tower]? When we came in, I didn't see the lake or the bridge, so why is this restaurant named? Zhan Xiaoyu waited until Xiao Er went down, thinking of the doubts he had just after hearing what Yan Qihao said, ordinary restaurants would not have such a name.

"Xiaoyu, ten years ago, there was still a lake next to here, but it was filled in later, and this [Wanghu Tower] has been open for more than 50 years and has been passed down for two generations. Ten years ago, people who came to eat here would enjoy the cruise ship while eating delicious food. Now, even though the lake is gone, the owner of the restaurant has not changed its name. Yan Qihao said the origin of the name of this [Wanghu Tower], and the changes in this place of Nanlong Kingdom in the past ten years.

"I see! But I think even if there is no lake, the food at this restaurant must be good, which is why so many customers come. Zhan Xiaoyu understood when he heard him tell him the ins and outs.

"Here, guest, it's time to serve! The guest ordered braised fish, soup and vegetables, steamed pigeon eggs...... "Soon, Xiao Er brought the ten dishes ordered by Yan Qihao, and the dishes he ordered were not dishes that needed to be burned for too long, so he could serve all the dishes at once."

"Alright, all the dishes are served, let's get started! But don't gobble it up at first, because we're already eating after more than an hour after noon, so let's have a bowl of soup before eating. Zhan smiled and said, and made soup for everyone one by one, although there is rice next to it, but it is better to drink a bowl of soup to warm the stomach first.

Half an hour later, everyone was full, and the dishes on the plates were empty. However, I have to say that the dishes on this table are not cheap, and they even exceeded the money they spent when they went to the plum garden before, spending thirteen taels of silver, but the taste is really very good.

"Okay, I've already eaten lunch, let's go back, I see that you have already started yawning with a smile, go back and go to sleep directly!" Yan Qihao wiped his mouth and said to everyone. Because he had already noticed that Zhan Xiaoyan was already a little sleepy when he was halfway through the meal, and now that he had finished eating, of course he had to go back.

"Yan boy, it's good for you to go back with the girl, I'm going to take Xiaoyu and the three of them to take a walk around here, buy some things they like, and Red Shadow will follow us." Guan Lao said. Because he had long noticed that Zhan Xiaotian and they wanted to go out for a walk, since they had already gone to the plum garden today, it would be good to go out for a walk in the afternoon and buy some things. And he also wants to buy some medicinal herbs and make a medicated bath to soak Zhan Xiaoyan, which is the kind that will not stimulate her, but is good for her body, so that she can give birth more smoothly, and this month is the most suitable for soaking!

"Okay, grandpa, as well as Xiaoyu, Xiaotian and Xiaoning, you can go shopping, just come back before dinner, Red Shadow, you follow them well, you must protect them, but don't be separated from them!" Yan Qihao said, got up and went downstairs with them, and when they got here, they separated, and got into the carriage with a smile, and he came to catch the car. Zhan Xiaoyan lay down directly after getting into the carriage, and fell asleep after a while, she was really sleepy.

In the evening, in the palace of Nanlong Kingdom, Nan Haocheng and other princes and princesses were accompanying their father to dinner, because although several of their princes were already living outside the palace, their father also stipulated that they would enter the palace every five days to have dinner with him, and they all obeyed it.

"Haocheng, you said you have something for me to see, what is it?" After the meal, the princes all followed the emperor into the study, because Nan Haocheng had already written a letter to send people into the palace before, explaining the appearance of a person with an extraordinary temperament in Nanlong Kingdom and his father, so Nan Batian knew that his eldest son had something, so he asked him now.

"Father, this is a painting I painted, I don't know if the person on it knows my father?" Nan Haocheng said, took out the painting, opened it and handed it to Nan Batian, asking him to take a good look at the person on the painting.

"Haocheng, this is the regent of the Northern Yan Kingdom, I didn't expect you to meet him, or I should say that I didn't expect him to come to the Southern Dragon Kingdom. I heard that he got married half a year ago, and I thought that this woman dressed as a woman was his wife. So Haocheng, do you know where they are now? After Nan Batian looked at the painting, he immediately recognized Yan Qihao, because of course he had already seen Yan Qihao during the previous four-nation exchange meeting, and now even if he saw his portrait, he recognized him at a glance.

"Well, Father, I have asked people to pay attention to them, knowing that they live in Lane 2 of Ebony Street, because when the retainers saw them, they felt that they were not ordinary people, so I let people pay attention to their residences. So what are you going to do now, father? Because when I came into contact with them today, they didn't want us to disturb them, so I think if you let them come to the palace to see you, they wouldn't necessarily come. Nan Haocheng asked.

I didn't expect him to be the regent of the Northern Yan Kingdom, I had heard of him before, and knew that he was about the same age as himself, but he was the most trusted person by Yan Qijin, the emperor of the Northern Yan Kingdom, and he didn't have any intention of wanting the throne. Now that he's here, apparently for the sake of his new wife, and, as he says, for fun.

"In that case, then I will definitely not send people there, but if they are still there during the Chinese New Year, then invite them to the palace banquet, and now I will write a letter to Lord Yan, and tell him that I know that he and Princess Yan are in the Southern Dragon Kingdom, and I will not disturb them in the country." Hearing his son say this, Nan Batian guessed Yan Qihao's thoughts, and for him, he only needs to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, since the other party doesn't want to be disturbed, even more so.

"Okay, then after you write a letter, I will send it to them. Because even if they don't like to be disturbed, but because of the identity of the regent of Yan Qihao, you can't just send someone over, and since the sons have already been in contact with them, it is most appropriate for me to send this letter. Hearing what his father said, Nan Haocheng thought about it and suggested like this.

First, this is more appropriate, and secondly, he also wants to have a good chat with Yan Qihao, even if it is just once, because he has long admired Yan Qihao, the regent, and now that he has come to the Southern Dragon Kingdom, of course he wants to meet him! (To be continued.) )
