After Xie Yinhua left, the table seemed to be much quieter.

Maybe he also drank a lot of wine, Chu Nanyue felt that his face was hot, and he couldn't eat anything.

Because she couldn't rest assured that Xie Yinhua was not relieved, the queen had already left the table early. As soon as the host left, everyone was more relaxed.

Chu Nanyue noticed that there was darkness in front of her, and when she raised her eyes, she found that it was Dongling Yan who came over and stood in front of her.

At the banquet, Dongling Yan never took the initiative to talk to anyone, but looked at everyone in the dark, and his eyes couldn't help but be vigilant.

She secretly speculated about Donglinyan's intentions, waiting for Donglinyan to take the initiative to speak.

"General Chu, at the palace banquet a few days ago, my father mentioned your matter. I wanted to see the general, but unfortunately you didn't come, which made me regret it for several days. Dongling Yan picked up the wine in the cup and praised Chu Nanyue.

"Seventh Highness's praise! The last general concealed his identity earlier, which was the benevolence of His Majesty, and he did not care about the last general. The military merits are even more trusted by His Majesty, so that there is a place for our soldiers to be used. "Chu Nanyue is neither humble nor arrogant.

Seeing that she did not shy away from the previous matter of women pretending to be men, Dongling Yan took the initiative to mention it extraordinarily frankly, and her eyes couldn't help but light up slightly.

Seeing that she didn't forget to mention the emperor in every word, it was really different from those heroes who were proud of their achievements and could not be beaten.

"General Chu's military uniform is heroic, and today's cyan dress is more feminine, which is lamentable!" Dongling Yan glanced Chu Nanyue up and down.

Hearing such a compliment, Chu Nanyue was not only not happy, but felt a little uncomfortable, and couldn't help but leave the table with an excuse: "Your Highness the Seventh, there is still something in the General's Mansion, and the last general will leave and go back first." ”

Dongling Yan didn't expect Chu Nanyue to react like this, his face turned dark, and he was extremely embarrassed.

Chu Nanyue didn't pay attention to it anymore, but turned around and left the table.

Seeing Chu Nanyue talking to Dongling Yan, Dongling Shuo's face became even worse, and it was not until Chu Nanyue didn't give Dongling Yan face and excused himself to leave the table that he softened his face.

Tanglin Shuo saw that Chu Nanyue was about to leave the hall, and hurriedly followed and walked beside Chu Nanyue.

"General Chu is slow." Tanglin Shuo said, "The road in the palace is complicated, and you rarely enter the palace, so it is better for you and me to go together." ”

"This ......" Chu Nanyue hesitated.

Seeing that the sky was already dark, she and Qingshuang really didn't know the road very well, and if they went to the wrong place again, they were afraid that it would be rude.

Before he could answer, Tanglin Shuo smiled again: "Could it be that General Chu looks down on me, the leader who took the initiative to ask for help?" ”

"Where." Because of officialdom, the two gradually got acquainted, and Chu Nanyue couldn't bear to refuse his kindness, so he said, "Then Your Highness will work hard." ”

The two walked side by side, Donglin Shuo personally turned on the palace lantern, while Qingshuang and Rongsheng followed not far behind, with a distance of a few steps in between.

However, neither of them spoke, and in this silent palace, more and more embarrassment occurred.

Tanglin Shuo found the topic, thinking of the unhappiness at today's banquet, he said apologetically: "Xie Yinhua is my cousin, and he is actually not a bad person, but he is spoiled by my mother, and he doesn't care about the feelings of others when he speaks and acts. If General Chu still feels unhappy, I will persuade her to apologize to you another day. ”

Chu Nanyue heard him mention Xie Yinhua again, thinking that he chased him out for Xie Yinhua, and he was inexplicably irritable.

"If you talk about this matter, even if the Sixth Highness doesn't mention it, the last general won't care, and the last general will understand." Chu Nanyue said politely.

This mouthful of a "last general" has made the relationship that was finally close return to the beginning.

Dongling Shuo didn't understand why Chu Nanyue was so angry for a while, he was silent for a long time, and when he remembered Chu Nanyue's words at the celebration banquet, he suddenly realized.

"General Chu, the last time you saw Yinhua, what did you say about drinking wine, but in fact, we ......" Tanglin Shuo couldn't help but explain.

Chu Nanyue became embarrassed: "Last time, I just said politely, if His Highness doesn't want to invite me, I won't hate Your Highness because of this." ”

Hearing this, Tanglin Shuo couldn't help but have a headache. He didn't know how long Chu Nanyue had misunderstood this matter, and he didn't know why Chu Nanyue had misunderstood.

Tanglin Shuo couldn't help but open his mouth seriously and explained: "General Chu has misunderstood, and there has never been any happy wine. Xie Yinhua and I only have a brother-sister relationship, and there is no transgression. ”

Is that all there is to it? Chu Nanyue was surprised in her heart.

But she quickly narrowed her eyes and said indifferently: "Actually, no matter what your relationship is, it has nothing to do with me, and the Sixth Highness doesn't have to explain it to me." ”

"Others are naturally irrelevant, but you are different." Tanglin Shuo's eyes were filled with warm affection, his speed slowed down, and the sincerity in his tone deepened, "I can ignore anyone's misunderstanding, but I don't want to be misunderstood by General Chu." ”

Chu Nanyue was slightly shaken by that burning gaze, and when she noticed the obviously affectionate words, her cheeks became even hotter.

She is also a woman, and she is a woman who was injured all over her body in her previous life.

The heartfelt concern and concern made her heart warm.

Tanglin Shuo looked at the woman's face, and the delicate plum blossom makeup was in the crimson rising on her cheeks, which became more and more beautiful and charming. Chu Nanyue's eyes were radiant, and he couldn't take his eyes off it anymore.

"General Chu has any time on the Yuan Festival?" Tanglin Shuo finally mustered up the courage and invited her.

He had been planning for a long time, and he wanted to post an invitation to the General's Mansion, but he was afraid that he would be returned directly. Fortunately, now because of this palace banquet, he has the opportunity to say it in person.

"Didn't there be a palace banquet that day, Your Highness Six?" Chu Nanyue did not answer the rhetorical question.

If you talk about whether there is time on that day, Chu Nanyue is now living alone in the General's Mansion, and there is naturally no other arrangement during the Shangyuan Festival. But whether to agree or not, she still needs to think deeply.

Tanglin Shuo smiled: "There is no palace banquet on the Shangyuan Festival, everything is casual." ”

Seeing that Chu Nanyue was silent and didn't speak, he said again: "Has General Chu ever gone to see the lights of the Shangyuan Festival?" You can't see Chinese New Year's Eve in Beijing, but the Shangyuan Festival is a must-have and should not be missed. If you see it, then you know what a fire tree silver flower is. ”

"Royal children, don't celebrate the festival in the palace, but have time to go to the people to hang out." Chu Nanyue heard that Donglin Shuo must have not missed the Shangyuan Festival, and couldn't help but ridicule.

Dongling Shuo's tone softened more and more: "General Chu, if you are free that day, can you spend this Shangyuan Festival with me?" ”

His eyes were like water, so sincere that people couldn't bear to refuse. Chu Nanyue felt that maybe he was drunk today, so he returned to Tanglin Shuo irrationally after all, and said, "Okay, I promise you." ”

She saw Tanglin Shuo's surprised appearance, and couldn't help but add carefully: "This is just for now, if there is something that day, I still won't go." ”

"It's nature." Tanglin Shuo smiled and nodded, his tone was firm, as if he was promising something: "But whether you come or not, I will wait for you." ”

Vaguely aware of Donglin Shuo's affection, Chu Nanyue wanted to refuse again, but it was too late.
