Several elders dined at Lang Tingxuan, not simply to celebrate the rest of their lives after the catastrophe of the Eight Sound Country, but to talk about the latest event that was quite important to the Eight Sound Country.

According to the customs of previous years, every time Qinglong Emperor's birthday, the country of eight music played the national music, and within a month after that, many outsiders will order a large number of musical instruments in the country of eight sounds, of course, those are just ordinary goods, and the country of eight music also gives a lot of preferential prices for this period.

In the past, Ling Yi didn't care about these things, but now that she is also a member of the Eight Tone Kingdom, she has to care.

"Who was in charge of this in the past?" Ling Yi asked, sitting behind the screen. She knew that those things of selling could not be done by these elders, and they would at most check them.

"In the past, Zou was in charge of management, and he has done well in the past few years, and I am afraid he will have to do it this year." Mr. Guo said.

Ling Yi hummed lightly, didn't ask any more questions, and waited until everyone dispersed before she walked out from behind the screen.

Gong Xiru was unexpectedly waiting for her outside the house.

Ling Yi was a little surprised: "Young Master Gong has something to do with me?" ”

Gong Xiru himself didn't know why he was waiting here, but he definitely wouldn't show it on his face, so what should he say?

"Yes, Princess Haining, thanks to your help."

Ling Yi said with a smile as she walked, "Don't you blame me for ruining such a good marriage of yours?" Princess Haining is beautiful, her identity is also noble, she can be crowned the king of the county after she gets married, and there are 50,000 soldiers and horses to master——"

The more she said it, the more she felt that she was too bad, which was for Gong Xiru. But it's a good thing.

Gong Xiru frowned slightly, as if thinking about how to answer, but followed Ling Yi's footsteps downstairs.

Long. I heard him say: "I don't pay attention to these things." ”

"And what do you like?" Ling Yi was suddenly a little curious, and turned around and asked with a smile.

Gong Xiru was stunned again, and after thinking for a long time, he squeezed out three words: "I don't know." ”

Ling Yi sneered, "I'll just ask, don't care." ”

She thought that Gong Xiru felt that it was inconvenient to answer because she had touched her privacy.

Gong Xiru explained: "I didn't pay much attention to this. I've never thought about what kind of person I'm looking for—"

The person in front was slender, with long ink-like hair hanging down his back. The light tender yellow gauze is as soft as herself, beautiful!

Gong Xiru was a little stunned that she would have such an idea.

Gong Sheng said in a low voice: "Young Master-Big Young Master? Miss Ling is gone, what are you still watching? ”

Gong Xiru immediately came back to his senses. glared at Gong Sheng. Turn around and walk towards the palace.

Gong Sheng followed him in a hurry, as if asking, and as if muttering to himself, "Why can't this Miss Ling see the young master, Princess Haining's marriage was so good that she was so disturbed." ”

Gong Xiru paused suddenly, thought about it, and asked lightly, "You say." What exactly does she mean? ”

Gong Sheng smiled: "Where do you know the little one, they all say that women have needles in their hearts." She is spreading rumors again, and she is provoking the relationship between the two Zhang Palaces, which can be seen measuring-"

Seeing that Gong Xiru was already a little displeased, she immediately changed her words: "Measurement is not a problem, the question is why she is doing this, isn't she jealous?" ”

"Jealous?" Gong Xiru's heart skipped a beat, as if she had been pinched by something, and a strange emotion spread from the tip of her heart.

"Yes, it's not jealous, why are the little ones so smart." Gong Sheng laughed, as if he felt that he had done something terrible.

There was a faint smile in the corner of Gong Xiru's eyes, and her mind was full of that indifferent person, who seemed gentle and lovely, but in fact she was cold and difficult to approach, like that, would she really be jealous?

Wait, jealous? Why are you jealous, because you don't like to marry Princess Haining? So why not? Could it be—

"Young Master, where did you think of it, the little one just said that Miss Ling may be jealous of Princess Haining and can't see her well, where do you think of laughing like this." Gong Sheng looked at Gong Xiru suspiciously.

Gong Xiru's expression was cold, he glanced at him, flicked his sleeves and continued to walk.

After taking two steps, he turned back and said, "She's not that kind of person. ”

Gong Sheng was stunned, patted his head and pleaded guilty: "Little nonsense, young master, don't take it to heart." ”

But can you really not take it to heart?

Gong Xiru has never thought so seriously about someone's future and his own. Even if the friendship is like Bai Lang Zhu Mo, he never thought that he would definitely have these two people in the future, in this world, there is no banquet that will not be dispersed, after all, there is always a way to go.

But when Gong Sheng said that, although he knew that it was ridiculous, although he knew that he shouldn't think about it, it was like opening the door, and he couldn't close it again, and his thoughts would always think about it unconsciously.

As a party to the case, Ling Yi is a leisurely person who drinks tea and eats snacks in the house.

"Miss, this is the account of the Eight Sound Kingdom in previous years for the past two months, and it was sent by the young master of the palace." Ori Yu handed over a few account books.

Gong Xiru is an elder of the Eight Sound Kingdom, and it is not difficult to get the account book.

Ling Yi was eating tea while flipping through the books, the account books were detailed and regular, and he couldn't see any fame.

She pointed to a number and said: "In the past seven years, the income in June and July has increased regularly, and in the first three years there was a famine, and it is normal that the income is not much, but in the past few years, the people of Guotai and the people have been rich, and the number of growth is still similar to that of the early years, don't you think it's strange?" ”

Ori Yu didn't know anything about this, and proposed, "Why don't you take it and ask the old lady?" ”

"Grandmother probably doesn't know, these things were all handled by the Zou family in previous years, and grandmother only knows that every year is higher than the previous year, and my father doesn't care about these things."

Weaving Fan held the account book, looked left and right, the dense numbers made her dizzy, and finally simply dropped the account book and said: "Miss, the maid can't see what is greasy in this, but since he dares to show this account book to others, it should be easy for nothing to go wrong." ”

Ling Yi nodded: "Yes, I can't see anything in the ledger at all." So we have to watch it ourselves. ”

Ori Yu was surprised: "The eldest lady wants to stay in the Eight Sounds Country all this time?" ”

"The Eight Sounds Country has a place for the elders to stay, which is quite convenient."

"But the lord and the old lady are here, how to explain it?" Weaving fan worried.

Ling Yi looked at her with a smile. The eyebrows raised slightly, "Road guard, it's time for you to get out." ”

Lu Xiaotian appeared in the house with a smile, and a pair of eyes rolled straight away, "What does the eldest lady want me to do?" ”

Ling Yi snorted at Weaving Yu, "Transform her into my appearance, and weave a fan to serve." If my grandmother asked about Oyu, she would go back to the countryside to visit her relatives. ”

"What about me." Ori Yu muttered, "As far as my sister goes to visit relatives, I won't go." Isn't that unreasonable? ”

"What's so difficult about this, let's just say that the eldest lady can't do without someone to serve, you can't stay." Ori Ha pursed her lips and smiled.

The weaving fan sighed and nodded: "This is reasonable. ”

Ling Yi said to do it. On the second day, let Ori Yu pretend to be herself. Anyway, her health is "often not good", the weather is so hot, it is normal to have a heat stroke casually, Lan felt sorry for her, and said that she didn't have to go over to say hello sooner or later, and she would take care of her body first.

Gong Xiru originally heard that Ling Yi was sick, and was hesitant to go to greet him, but when he saw Tsuji Niang who was in and out of the Eight Sound Country. I understood it immediately, and I didn't know what to think. He even lived in the country of Eight Sounds.

Although the Zou family made a mistake, Zou Quan and Zou Jian were not affected, Bayinguo and Xiaorentang, the two of them still did very well, as if there was no embarrassing thing about the Zou family, only doing their own, and not caring about anything else.

However, it is precisely because of the lack of Zou that all the account books of the Bayin Kingdom have been audited by Zou Quan alone in the past few years.

Ling Yi wandered around the country every day, traveled east and west, and met many people.

However, several elders were still very curious about her staying in the Eight Sound Kingdom.

The explanation given by Ling Yi was that Luoxia Garden was being renovated and she couldn't live in it for a while, and in order to cope with herself, she deliberately asked Liangqi to find a craftsman to renovate Luoxia Garden.

On this day, she was reading a book in the house when there was a knock at the door outside.

Ling Yi raised his voice and asked, "Who is it", and Gong Xiru's voice came from outside the door.

She couldn't guess the purpose of Gong Xiru's stay in Bayin Kingdom, but since the latter came to the door, there was no reason not to see her.

Opening the door, Gong Xiru's refreshing face came into view, it was not yet noon, the weather was not so hot, and the latter was wearing a light-colored thin shirt.

Maybe it was the golden and gentle sunshine behind him, maybe it was the smile that was not deep or shallow at the corner of his mouth, in short, Ling Yi suddenly felt that he was a little less cold and a little more friendly.

Seeing Ling Yi showing a hint of confusion, Gong Xiru coughed lightly, "There is juggling in the market today, do you want to go?" ”

Ling Yi was not in a hurry to answer, and said with a smile: "I thought you only had all dark clothes, but I didn't expect that there were also light-colored clothes-"

Gong Xiru coughed dryly again, and said lightly: "It's not suitable." ”

"It's not that it's not suitable, maybe I'm not used to it - by the way, what did you just say?" Ling Yi asked.

Gong Xiru glanced at his clothes.

Gong Sheng, who was following behind, hurriedly said: "The young master wants to invite Elder Tsuji to the market to watch juggling, the street is lively today, Elder Tsuji is bored in the house, isn't it boring." ”

Ling Yi thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Then wait first, I'll go in and change into light clothes." With that, he closed the door.

Gong Xiru's face sank instantly, and she looked at Gong Sheng in a daze.

Gong Sheng sneered: "The little one really thinks this body is good, and he specially asked the tailor to make it, young master, your clothes are either black or gray, and none of them can be seen, this dress is so good, it melted your cold face a lot in an instant, you see Miss Ling was stunned just now——"

The more he spoke, the quieter he became, and finally his voice was like a gnat, and he said, "If the young master really doesn't like it, it's okay to go back and change it, but if you change it now, wouldn't it be even more heart-empty-"

Ling Yi reopened the door and saw that Gong Xiru was drenched in cold, and Gong Sheng shrugged his head like a frosted eggplant.

"What's wrong?" She asked.

The ice in Gong Xiru's eyes retracted, and he said lightly: "It's nothing, I asked people to prepare a carriage." ”

"Since it's a trip to see the excitement, it's so boring to take a carriage, so you don't need a carriage."

Ling Yi walked out, hung the veil on his ears, turned his head and smiled: "In this way, others can't see it, not to mention that as long as you go out of the Eight Sound Country, outside, it's not as happy as I am." ”

Tsuji Niang's identity only needs to be maintained in Bayin Country and Luoxia Garden, and after those two gates, she is still Ling Yi, the eldest lady of Ling Mansion.

Gong Xiru's depressed mood just now was swept away, and she strode to Ling Yi's side. (To be continued......)
