Anyang, light snow.

In the Hangzhou Mansion, Yueyue was sitting in front of the dresser and looking at the jade pendant in his hand in a daze.

"Miss, it's time to go." Qing Dai walked in, and when she saw the appearance of the beginning of the month, she couldn't help frowning slightly. Since the return of Foanta on that day, the young lady has often stared at the jade pendant in a daze, sometimes for several hours. There was some worry in my heart, but the lady confessed again, and no one was allowed to ask about it.

At the beginning of the month, when he heard this, he replied lightly, put the jade pendant in his sleeve, and got up to go out.

A few days ago, Yunfu handed over an invitation, and today I want to hold a banquet in Nanshan Tower. This should be the first time I saw Xu Shiheng after that day, she was still a little flustered, and the carriage came all the way through the snow.

The wine banquet is set in a private room in Nanshan Building, Yunxiang is a wine tasting banquet, it is said that in order to make everyone happy, she has been looking around these days, and she has also picked up a lot of good wine. On a snowy day in winter, eating roasted roe deer meat with a variety of wines is indeed a great pleasure.

At this time, the moon was standing outside the door and did not go in. The people were almost there, and they could vaguely hear the frolicking of Yun Xiang and the others, and after a little hesitation, she took a deep breath and pushed the door in.

Looking around, the person is indeed almost there. Yun Xiang sat on the main seat, Mu Yan and Yun Miao sat on both sides, and Su Yunli and Xu Shiheng were down in order. Seeing that the moon had arrived, Yun Xiang greeted happily: "It's finally here, every time you're late," he said and asked people to sit down.

The beginning of the month smiled: "The snow is blocking the road, so it's late." As he spoke, he looked at Xu Shiheng as if he had no intention, and when he met him, his heart tightened at the beginning of the month, but he smiled on his face.

Xu Shiheng also smiled at her, and did not make any unnecessary moves.

The seat was placed under Xu Shiheng, which was somewhat similar to the last time, and when he sat down at the beginning of the month, he was talking to Yun Miao.

There was some apprehension in my heart, and it was the struggle to know how to speak to him. At this time, after he finished speaking, he turned back to the beginning of the month and said lightly: "Miss Hang." "Just a courtesy greeting.

At the beginning of the month, he was slightly stunned, and the words that came to his lips couldn't help but turn into a sentence: "Xu Gongzi"

At this time, Yun Miao on the side called softly again, Xu Shiheng turned around and continued to talk to her, and the two seemed to be talking about calligraphy and painting. At the beginning of the month, he did not listen carefully, nor did he interject. Compared with the last intimate act, this time at the beginning of the month and Xu Shiheng seemed to be separated by an invisible membrane, occasionally he would turn back to ask about some inconsequential things, and when he opened a few words at the beginning of the month, he would have a smile on his face.

It can't be said to be completely cold, but there is also no previous intimacy. Polite and distant. Xu Shiheng's expression made the beginning of the month confused.

At this time, the last person of the feast arrived. Seeing him again this time, he is still a slender figure, wearing a dark brocade robe and a fox fur cloak.

"I'm sorry, I'm late." As soon as he entered, he bowed and saluted.

"It's okay, I thought you wouldn't come this time." Yun Xiang saw it and shouted.

"Miss Yun personally invited her to a banquet, how can she not come?" Shang Young smiled. Then he apologized to the others present: "I made everyone wait for a long time......

"Brother Shang really asked everyone to wait, but he had to punish him with three glasses of wine." Yun Miao on the side followed up and joked softly.

"That's nature. He should be punished in the future. As he was saying hello to everyone, his eyes suddenly fell on the moon. Shang Ying was slightly stunned for a moment.

At the beginning of the month, she was a little panicked, although Shang Ying didn't know her name, she knew her surname Xu, and at the moment she didn't plan to let Xu Shiheng know about the marriage contract between the two of them. It was when he hesitated that Yun Xiang spoke: "This is Hang Yue, the priest of the Imperial Historical Observatory. ”

"Miss Hang, I have admired my name for a long time." Shang Ying heard this, bowed and saluted. It's as if the two had never known each other.

At the beginning of the month, he returned the salute, and inadvertently, he met his eyes that seemed to be smiling, and he was slightly stunned. The inky eyes exuded a hint of inquiry, but there was not much malice.

Yun Xiang beside him had already begun to beckon everyone to take their seats. After the official banquet. Not long after, a small servant suddenly came to report: "Childe, His Royal Highness King Qing has come down." Compared with the women who were stunned, Shang Ying's eyebrows were secretly raised but he smiled silently, Xu Shiheng was expressionless, and only Shen Muyan was the first to speak helplessly: "Let's take over." ”

After the words fell, everyone got up, and King Qing arrived.

He was in sturdy shape, wearing a luxurious brocade robe, and his hair was meticulously combed and tied with a golden crown. The facial features are thoughtful, the instrument is lofty, and the demeanor is full of confidence and arrogance.

He said to the people who knelt on the ground: "You don't have to be polite, I heard that there is a banquet in the Shen Mansion here, and it just so happens that this king is also holding a banquet in this Nanshan Building today, and they are all young and talented, so they are specially invited." Saying that, he looked around and saw that Shang Ying was also among them, and couldn't help laughing: "General Shang is also there, just right, this king doesn't need to let people go to his aunt to invite him." Let's take a seat too. Without waiting for everyone to say more, he asked people to move the desk and other things.

Shen Muyan looked at Shang Ying, and felt a little apologetic in his heart, Shang Ying rarely went to banquets, it was to avoid these, and this time he came to see it completely because of his personal relationships. I don't know how King Qing learned that Shang Ying would come here, and the time was just right, but he still thanked King Qing on his face.

Shang Ying smiled at him indifferently to reassure him.

When everyone arrived at the banquet hall, they found that the king of Qing was setting up a banquet with music, only to see that the desk was connected from end to end, and there were not only powerful people in the court, female officials and nobles, but also many literati and Qing guests, most of whom were quite talented and famous.

"This king came to Beijing this time, very leisure, just heard that the Beijing Yake often have banquets to exchange talents, just on weekdays also love to write poems and appreciate paintings, so let people set up a banquet here, it is a time to attach elegance, and please don't laugh." He explained.

"His Royal Highness King Qing is polite, His Royal Highness cherishes talents, and my generation also admires it." As soon as he finished speaking, someone complimented him at the right time.

When the beginning of the month and the others were clear in their hearts, it seemed that this vassal elegance was fake, and recruiting staff was real.

"But it's quite boring to talk about poetry and painting all the time. It just so happens that this king has picked up a lot of good wine from all over the world, and everyone is here this time, so why don't you appreciate one or two together? ”

As soon as these words came out, Yun Xiang was overjoyed, and he praised it at the moment, leading a group of people to find a seat and sit down, and soon there were maids and servants who presented the wine and delicacies one by one. I have to say that this King Qing is indeed very set.

Halfway through the feast, everyone no longer sat idle, but began to move around, looking for like-minded friends to have fun with. And King Qing also asked people to move the table around, presenting throwing pots, calligraphy and paintings and other things for people to play, and the atmosphere of the banquet suddenly rose.

After arriving at the banquet hall, the beginning of the month and Xu Shiheng have always been separated, on the one hand, he is famous and has been surrounded by people, and on the other hand, because his attitude in the private room made the beginning of the month difficult, and it was not easy to come forward to disturb him for a while.

It wasn't until the middle of the feast, when everyone was scattered here and there in search of fun, that he was able to have a little leisure. After pushing off a few waves of appointments, I saw him leave the banquet hall alone, and after a little hesitation at the beginning of the month, he also told the female guests around him and ran away.

Xu Shiheng walked all the way to the vicinity of the plum garden, and when he saw that there was no one around, he called him out of his voice.

"Xu Gongzi."
