In the green season, the most lively place in Qinhuai is the water pavilion in the Qinhuai River.

Three-storey pavilion, stacked pavilions, flying from the water surface, a new water pavilion stands on the surface of the Qinhuai River.

Compared with the former Water Pavilion Getai, in addition to being more luxurious in scale, it is becoming more and more inclusive, and it is no longer only a place where nobles gather, from the kings and grandchildren to the common people.

It is like the confluence of great rivers, where the mud and sand surging in the rivers settle, the trickling streams in the mountains merge here, and the koi fish swimming in the beautiful pond in private mansions are mixed into the schools of fish and shrimp.

Of course, once you enter the attic, you will still find a difference.

The interior structure of the three-storey building is interconnected, mostly verandah structure, the first floor has a huge singing platform, which is extremely wide all around, equipped with ordinary private seats, with counters for snacks and sundries, and some fresh gadgets from all over the world, which is more like a conference venue.

The second floor is the observation building, which is transparent on all sides, surrounding the verandah on the second floor, you can see the song stage performance on the first floor, and the scenery of the Qinhuai River is also unobstructed, and it is also an important hub connecting the first floor and the third floor.

There are a total of 18 independent rooms on the third floor, which is called "the burrow" here, the environment is elegant and quiet, and there is also the style of drunken gold fans, under the exquisite layout and ingenious structure, the functions are complete, among which many literati and scholars are gathered, various activities are carried out, poetry meetings, chambers of commerce, sword banquets, tea parties, swordsmanship, etc. are continuous all year round; At the same time, there was a constant stream of kings and nobles who came here every day, and of course, many people of high status usually appeared here as literati and scholars.

Seeing everything in front of him, Bai Bait only felt that he had come to a completely unfamiliar place, where the shadow of the Water Pavilion had long been gone.

When she stepped on that ship, her heart was full of longing, and when the ship got closer and closer to here, her heart went up and down, until she actually stepped here, there was nothing but all kinds of noise ringing in her ears.

Standing in the crowded crowd, watching the people around her, her consciousness jumped out unconsciously, like a disoriented boat in the vast sea, drifting with the current.

At this moment, the mood is really a little depressed.

She didn't know why, maybe it was the last nervousness before jumping into that palace wall, maybe it was the unquenchable faith that burned her flesh and blood all the time, or maybe it was the wordless feeling for the passage of the past eighteen years.

She thought that this was the reason why she chose to climb this water pavilion before leaving.

She found a free table and sat down, and asked for a pot of wine that was not too strong.

Xiao Er brought the wine and gave her a small plate of peanuts, and at the same time warmly reminded her that the performance on the stage was about to start, and she waited patiently.

She glanced lightly at the song stage, and still remembered that she used to stand on it, danced in shock, and became a popular singer in Qinhuai overnight.

Singer, oh, what a familiar identity!

Her beautiful eyes closed slightly, and the wine raised in her hand slammed into her stomach.

"Brother Ziyou, you're late again, punish for drinking, you should be punished for drinking." Shu Huang, the green-robed man, looked at the late visitor, shook his head helplessly, and immediately, he filled a glass of wine without hesitation, and pushed it in front of Brother Ziyou.

The people at the same table were accustomed to it, and drank it to themselves.

Rao Ziyou sat down with his head down, took the wine glass and drank it all, the wine glass was a little heavy in his hand, and then fell on the wine table, gradually falling into a state of silence.

Soon, someone noticed the anomaly.

"Brother Ziyou is a little wrong today, usually Brother Ziyou sends posts to several of our houses in three days to meet in this water pavilion, and the post is not invited, so he sends a house slave to the door of the house all day long, what's wrong with today? Don't talk about it late, or this sullen look? ”

Shu Huang, the green-robed man, teased, "Brother Huainan's words are wrong, why is he not right today?" He's not quite right for more than half a year! ”

Huainan's puzzled eyes moved from Shu Huang to Rao Ziyou, only to see him carry the pot by himself again, pour wine into the cup vigorously, and his heart was even more puzzled, "Eh! What's going on? ”

"Brother Huainan has been traveling for most of the year, and it is understandable that I don't know!" It was Zhao Zhao, a red-robed man who spoke, and as he spoke, he glanced at the stage with a smile in his eyes.

The one who answered the call was Shu Huang, a man in a green robe, who folded a fan in his hand and said slowly: "I will not regret the gradual widening of the clothes belt, and I will make people haggard for Yixiao!" Half a year ago, the best dancing and singing girl here left! Our amorous genius is trapped by love! ”

"Singer!?" The red-robed man Zhao Zhao's eyes lit up, and he suddenly patted Rao Ziyou's shoulder and laughed, "This reason is also fresh and refined!" Brother Ziyou is rare to have an intentional match, not bad! ”

Rao Ziyou didn't raise his eyes, and suddenly poured the wine in the cup into his stomach, and in his ears, Zhao Zhao pulled Shu Huang to talk about this love history......

Speaking of this singer Shen Han, it's really amazing! I thought that since the singer Bai Bait, who became popular in Qinhuai overnight two years ago, there was no singer in the world until Shen Han appeared......"

After a few glasses of wine, Bai Bait drank so heavily that she suddenly heard her name, and she suddenly jumped out of her thoughts, and her eyes moved to the opposite side of her.

"The new emperor ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world, and those who sold themselves into slavery at the beginning could be freed, and at the same time, he greatly praised the singer! Overnight, the identity of the singer soared! A large number of artists have emerged, and some people have seized the momentum and spent a lot of money to build this new water pavilion! It took a year to complete the construction of this water pavilion. In anticipation, the new Water Pavilion was opened. It's just that the result is a big disappointment! There are hundreds of singers in the Water Pavilion, but their qualifications are mediocre, which is amazing! ”

"Finally half a year ago, a woman named Shen Han entered the Water Pavilion Platform, and a month later, this Water Pavilion Platform really came to life. Countless listeners came by boat, just to see Shen Hanfanghua! Someone just took one more look at her in the crowd, and from then on, she could never forget her face! ”

Like a poem, Shu Huang said proudly, and couldn't help humming a small tune in his mouth.

Hearing this, Huainan and Zhao Zhaoshi couldn't help but laugh shoulder to shoulder, but Rao Ziyou was the only one who drank the stuffy wine.

Zhao Zhao took a few breaths, his ears were red with laughter, and he tried to make a gesture to Shen Dantian, and his concerned tone sounded, "Brother Ziyou, since you like it, you will be brave enough to chase it!" Brother Zhao will always be your strong backing! ”

"Chasing? Chase you peach blossoms! Shu Huang couldn't help but sneer, "This singer has long been famous!" ”

Zhao Zhao was not convinced, and patted the table, "What if the famous flower has a master??" If you can't catch it, let's grab it! Once the raw rice is cooked and matured, she can't run away! ”

Hearing this, Huainan hurriedly grabbed Zhao Zhao and looked worried, "You dare to rob the monarch's woman?" You don't want to die? ”

"What?!" Zhao Zhao was stunned.

Shu Huang shook the folding fan and said seriously, "Although Shen Han's reputation is not as good as the original white bait, almost half of Qin Huai knows about this person, and over time, her name has spread into the palace and to the ears of the current monarch." I heard that half a year ago, during a private visit to the monarch's microservice, he met Shen Han here, and soon after, Shen Han was summoned to the palace and became the current concubine! ”

Hearing this, Zhao Zhao didn't dare to say anything anymore......

Whoever dares to rob a woman with the monarch will die......

At this time, Rao Ziyou suddenly left the table and didn't look back.

Several people couldn't stop shouting, and looked at each other, a little helpless.

Zhao Zhao realized his problem and punished himself, "My fault, my fault." ”

"Those who don't know are not guilty, Brother Zhao doesn't have to mind." Huainan patted Zhao Zhao's shoulder and smiled slightly. His eyes followed Rao Ziyou's back to the second floor, "He, he's been depressed for more than half a year, half-dead, we don't have any way at all, it's good to stimulate him so much, so as not to suffocate!" ”

Zhao Zhao couldn't help but sigh softly, followed by Shu Huang's soft sigh......

"But, it's a pity, it's a pity!" Shu Huang pursed the corners of his lips and shook his head.

"Brother Shu Huang, what is the pity?" Zhao Zhao asked.

"It's a pity that there are a pair of good mandarin ducks in the world!" Shu Huang said: "To say something evasive, our monarch has always had a cold temperament, he has been on the throne for nearly two years, and the harem has no heirs, and the news from the palace is that our monarch is almost buried in government affairs for hundreds of days a year, and the number of times he has set foot in the harem may not exceed ten times!" Thousands of concubines are selected from all over the country every year, and in the end it depends on the decision of the empress dowager. In the old days, due to the fierce battle in the harem, the monarch was angry and wanted to set up a concubine policy! If there is no concubine in the harem, can you still pay it back? If it weren't for the civil and military persuasion of the Manchu Dynasty, the harem would inevitably undergo a drastic change. ”

"Surprisingly, half a year ago, the monarch actually ordered the selection of a singer, in terms of appearance and talent, Shen Hanyan can be compared with today's queen? But he was taken by this monarch who has always been kind! Everyone thought that the royal family would be able to add heirs soon, but as a result, more than half a year passed, and there was no movement on Concubine Chen's side! ”

Shu Huang sighed again. "I'm afraid, our monarch only summoned Shen Han on a whim. Entering the palace, in fact, Shen Han may have never been pampered......"

At this time, Huainan lowered his voice and couldn't help but speak: "Hey, what queen, what Shen Han, it's all a disguise!" I've heard that our monarch is a ...... with broken sleeves."

"Brother Huainan, you ...... Where does the assertion come from? Zhao Zhao sneered, and subconsciously suppressed his voice.

"Someone in my cousin's family is a grandmother in the palace, and she knows all about the secrets in the palace!" Huainan replied solemnly, "It is said that our monarch, when he was in Mocang, had been in love with the second prince of Mocang since he was a child!" The two of them eat and sleep together! You've got me, I've got you! I have already inherited the joy of fish and water! Since the death of the second prince of Mocang, our monarch has been immersed in the thoughts of the old man day and night! ”

"No, it won't!" Zhao Zhao almost couldn't believe it, "If the current monarch breaks his sleeves, wouldn't we want to hate the country?"

Shu Huang frowned, "When you say that, it seems really possible...... There are three thousand beauties in the harem, which man doesn't love it? If it's close to men, this harem probably won't even look at it! ”

"Don't you know," Seeing Shu Huang's expression of approval, Huainan suddenly had enough confidence to speak, "This matter has already spread in Qin Huai, but everyone doesn't dare to chew the root of their tongue!" ”

……

Bai Bait's eyes wandered, and he suddenly became a little unsteady.

Looking at the wine in the glass, the wine suddenly became less fragrant.

I thought, if Mo Cang Wuxian is a broken sleeve, then does she still have a chance?
