Chongde Hall is one of the three major halls of Xiyuan and is located in the center of Xiyuan.

Jia Baoyu followed Ye Qiong and the others towards this vast and magnificent hall.

Before in Tinglan Water Pavilion, when Ye Qiong knew about the song "Bamboo and Stone" he made, he invited him to meet him.

After mentioning it, he liked Jia Baoyu very much, so he asked Jia Baoyu to follow him.

Of course, Ye Qiong is not the only junior by his side. He followed behind the second prince, and next to him were two women.

A girl, a girl, to be exact.

The girl looked to be twenty-eight years old, tall and tall, with long black hair tied up in a bun at the back of her head, and most of it still hung down on her shaved back, dancing slightly with her walking steps.

This is Ye Zhenzhen, who is known as the first talented woman in the capital.

Jia Baoyu was also a little curious about this talented girl of the Ye family because of the praise of Xue Pan and others before, so she always looked at it secretly, but she walked in front, and Jia Baoyu could only observe the side most of the time.

Only the occasional glimpse can give you a glimpse of the full picture.

I have to say that the beauty of his appearance is not under Qin Keqing, and even surpasses it. However, there is no trace of Qin Keqing's charm and charm on his body, but everywhere reveals the elegant and beautiful beauty of a scholarly lady.

From this point of view, it is similar to Baochai.

However, she is too tall, much taller than Baochai. Jia Baoyu looked more than a head taller than him now, and when he looked at her, he had to look up and stand beside her, Jia Baoyu felt a little pressure.

"Hehe, isn't Sister Ye good-looking?"

Jia Baoyu thought that his peeping was very hidden, but he suddenly heard a joking children's voice beside him, he hurriedly withdrew his gaze, took two steps seriously, and then turned his head to look at the little girl beside him.

The big eyes are full of banter and the pride of seeing through other people's minds.

Jia Baoyu only glanced at her and ignored her. In front of him is the second prince, and it is rumored that the person the second prince likes is Ye Zhenzhen, if he misunderstands that he has "other intentions" for Ye Zhenzhen, it will not be good.

But Jia Baoyu obviously underestimated the persistence of the girl next to her, she saw Jia Baoyu ignoring her, and immediately squeezed to Jia Baoyu's side: "Hey, what about what I asked you, can't you hear me?" ”

Jia Baoyu still ignored her.

"If you don't reply to me, I'll tell Brother Jing Hao, saying that you peeked at Sister Ye just now!"

Jia Baoyu's feet were weak, and he almost didn't stand firm. But he knew he couldn't ignore her anymore.

"I don't know what to call my little sister?"

Jia Baoyu lowered her voice, like coaxing a child, for fear that she would speak too loudly, and it would be bad for others to know when the time came.

The girl was here when he was called over by Ye Qiong, so he didn't know the girl's identity.

When the girl heard Jia Baoyu call her "little sister", she frowned and glared at Jia Baoyu, but still replied, "My name is Yunni." ”

Yunni? Jia Baoyu thought about it and gave up, he didn't know much about the famous and noble women in Beijing, and he couldn't match her identity.

However, judging from her title to the second prince, this Yunni should be a royal person, maybe she is a princess!

These royal ladies are all delicate and noble, and if they talk too much, they will lose, so Jia Baoyu just said "um" and ended the other party's active conversation.

It's a pity that he doesn't want to pay attention to the other party, but Yunni doesn't seem to want to walk quietly.

"You are Jia Baoyu?"

"Hmm."

"Did you really write that poem before? Hehe, you are so powerful, even Sister Ye praised you just now. ”

"Hmm."

"Are you just going to say 'um'?"

"Hmm."

Yunni was silent......

"Is Sister Ye good-looking?"

"Hmm...... Well? ”

Jia Baoyu turned her head suddenly, and saw that Yun Ni's eyes were already a little angry, and she suddenly pulled Ye Zhenzhen's sleeve in front of her: "Sister Ye......"

Ye Zhenzhen turned her head.

Jia Baoyu knew what to do as soon as she saw this posture, and she didn't care about feeling the beauty of Ye Zhenzhen's glance back, so she hurriedly pulled Yunni over and cast a flattering and admitting expression at her.

Yun Ni smiled proudly, pointed at Jia Baoyu and said to Ye Zhenzhen: "Sister Ye, he has something to say to you." ”

Jia Baoyu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, as long as it was not a complaint.

Facing Ye Zhenzhen's inquiring eyes, he said sharply: "I met with Ye Hao outside Xiyuan before, and I don't want that Wu Fan to cause trouble for no reason, so I want to ask Miss Ye below, what is the difference between Brother Ling and that Wu Fan?" ”

The second prince also turned around at this time, and said with a smile: "Brother Jia doesn't know, Ye Hao and Wu Fan have incompatible personalities, and there have been some contradictions, but they are not a big deal, and they are not worthy of Brother Jia's detailed study." ”

"I see."

Jia Baoyu nodded, he didn't care in the first place.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Ye Zhenzhen greeted her and turned back. The second prince continued to smile at Jia Baoyu and said, "Sister Yunni has a strange personality, I don't want to be so close to you just when I meet Brother Jia for the first time......"

Jia Baoyu suddenly realized that he was still holding Yunni's wrist, so he hurriedly let go.

"Your Highness, forgive me, it's rude."

I was afraid that Yunni's little girl would sue before, so I caught her in a hurry.

Yun Ni glared at the second prince: "You are eccentric, you are the weirdest!" ”

The second prince smiled and said to Jia Baoyu: "Brother Jia doesn't have to be too stubborn, my sister has stayed by the imperial grandmother's side since she was a child, and the imperial grandmother spoils her, so she is a little willful, if there is anything wrong with her, please take care of Brother Jia." ”

"Your Highness is serious."

"Huh." The second prince smiled.

Naturally, he would not feel that Jia Baoyu was rude. Yun Ni is only seven or eight years old, she is completely a child, Jia Baoyu doesn't seem to be very old, for him, they are just two children, and it is normal to talk closely.

Just chatting like this, soon everyone came to the Chongde Temple. As soon as I turned the Fenglou, I saw that on the spacious white stone ground in front of the entire Chongde Palace, nearly a thousand stools were neatly placed, and there were eunuchs and palace maids constantly shuttling between them.

From a condescending view, it is truly spectacular.

"County Lord, you can count it, the Queen Mother has been waiting for you for a long time, go over quickly, otherwise the slave and maid will be punished again."

A eunuch ran to Yunni and said with tears in his eyes.

Only then did Jia Baoyu know that this little girl was a county lord.

Lord Yunni pouted, but he didn't refuse, but just pulled Ye Zhenzhen and said, "Sister Ye, you can go with me." ”

Ye Zhenzhen looked at Ye Qiong, Ye Qiong nodded and said, "You go, just stay by the queen's side." ”

So Ye Zhenzhen and Yunni County Lord left together.

Another eunuch came to invite Jia Baoyu to sit in the designated area, and Ye Qiong said, "You can go in with me." ”

Jia Baoyu has no title and no official position, so he is naturally not qualified to enter the inner hall.

When Ye Qiong said this, she was deliberately elevating him. However, Jia Baoyu thought that every seat in the hall must be designated, and he followed Ye Qiong in, and it was glorious, but it was estimated that he could only stand behind Ye Qiong as a student all the time, who knows how long this banquet would last, and when the time came, it would be more sinful to watch them eat and drink, and stand by themselves.

It's true that I want to see the emperor, but there's no need to suffer this crime!

Therefore, he thanked him: "Thank you, Master Taishi, it's just that the students are lowly and have no official positions, so they still sit outside this hall." ”

Ye Qiong wiped her beard when she heard this, nodded and smiled: "Cunzhou really taught his son well, and he actually taught you such a smart and polite good child." In that case, you are outside the temple, and perhaps it is better for you young people to be in one place and exchange knowledge than to go in. ”

After speaking, a few adults behind him who also praised Jia Baoyu with a smile or two stepped into the hall.
