The night in the Forbidden City was originally solemn, but today it is unusual, the door is now full of cars, and the non-commissioned officers who were originally wearing armor are now wearing black suits, and it can be seen that these guys are wearing pistol holsters in the inner compartment of their suits, these are not ordinary non-commissioned officers.

Several hallmen at the door have also been carefully selected, and the long red carpet is a floor lamp every one meter, and one derives into the palace.

It is impossible for the car to come without a table, and you don't dare to drive in without a car of 500,000 yuan.

Of course, since I set up this flag, someone has to break it.

In a few moments, a taxi drove up onto the red carpet in front of the door.

Don't say it's a cousin, the dignitaries and dignitaries walking on the red carpet are also surprised.

Out of the back seat of the car came a dignified, young man in a suit and leather shoes, with a handsome face, but a little raw.

The man straightened the collar of his clothes, then turned back to the taxi driver and said, "Thank you, master." ”

Although it can't be said to be a strong local atmosphere, I always feel a little weird in it.

The man stepped forward, and the cousin hurriedly went up to stop him, "I'm sorry, my lord, what about your invitation?" ”

"Oh, oh." The man pulled the envelope out of his arms.

The cousin confirmed that although the invitation was genuine, he still hesitated to get out of the way because of the other party's unconventional behavior.

The man was also very considerate and patted the cousin's shoulder, "I'm sorry. . . It's good to get used to it, it's good to get used to it. ”

And just like that, the man strode up and down the red carpet.

Everyone around looked at this guy who seemed to be a bit grinning.

"Where did this guy come from?" Someone asked.

"I don't know, it should be the kind of second-rate person who is lucky enough to get the invitation, it's really the world."

Zhou Ruocheng naturally didn't think so.

He was just eating and drinking, and the emperor called himself here.

After walking the red carpet, I have arrived at the inner hall, and the foreign wooden gate that is somewhat out of place with the surrounding buildings, two well-dressed hallmen at the door have opened the door, and a relatively modern picture is presented in front of them.

If you really summarize this scene, then it is the so-called high society.

Various celebrities in suits and dresses talked eloquently, attendants in red vests and bows held goblets of champagne in their hands, and on the handmade tables without a trace of Dahua, a few old guys took small gambles with weights and a commercial smile on their faces.

Two long rows of tables with delicate dim sum, and the slender but hairy hands of white-skinned foreigners in white chef's hats are making something, and this delicate and shiny food highlights an atmosphere - forced!

Zhou Ruocheng naturally wouldn't have stepped forward to eat a tiger down the mountain when he saw these foods, but his mouth really didn't stop, nonsense, if you can eat good things, you won't eat them in vain.

All kinds of strange flavors exude all kinds of charm on his taste buds, Zhou Ruocheng picked up a glass of wine from the passing cousin's plate and drank it, hey, it was not much more energetic than Lao Baigan.

Leaning against the table and slowly savoring the taste of the wine, two young girls in dresses passed by looking at him.

Zhou Ruocheng waved his hand politely and smiled.

Although the girls looked at each other and laughed, they still retained the reserve that a Dahua girl should have, and walked away.

Zhou Ruocheng didn't feel embarrassed, drank the wine in his hand, leaned on the edge of the table, looked at the people in this big field, and sighed.

It's so boring, and no one knows it, and there's nothing fun to do, so it's better to drink and play dice with the young ladies of Fengle Building.

Thinking like this, a person suddenly walked in from the door, although no one coaxed, it would be a faux pas to sigh here, but the woman who came in really attracted everyone's attention.

Li Luoying, the princess of Dahua Kingdom, is now the chief secretary of the National Academy.

Whether it is temperament or appearance, she is impeccable, she has already explained before, except for Su Wan'er, a demon, Li Luoying is completely the woman at the front.

Li Luoying also came by herself, but her aura easily focused other people's attention on herself.

Several people with relatively high status also greeted Li Luoying when they saw her coming.

Li Luoying also smiled politely, and the gestures exuded a kind of royal arrogance and ease.

Naturally, there are a few sons and brothers who come forward to set a close approach, although Li Luoying did not resist, but it is easy to see that he has kept a certain distance.

Looking around at the few sons and brothers who came forward, he inadvertently saw Zhou Ruocheng who was leaning on the edge of the table and looking at him in the distance.

Li Luoying was also stunned, and looked at Zhou Ruocheng with a surprised expression, as if to say, "Why are you here." ”

When their eyes met, Zhou Ruocheng naturally did not resist, and greeted him with a smile.

Li Luoying smiled at the few sons on the side, then walked out of the other party's encirclement and walked towards Zhou Ruocheng.

"I didn't expect you to come too, Lord Zhou." Li Luoying asked with a smile.

"Hmmm... What should I call you? Are you the chief secretary or the princess? Zhou Ruocheng asked.

"This is naturally liked by Lord Zhou." Li Luoying smiled.

Zhou Ruocheng also smiled, his friendship with Li Luoying. How to say it, I always feel that the two of them can talk about it very well, and they quarrel with each other when they don't understand, but after understanding, they have a feeling of girlfriends. "Do you want to eat sushi?"

Li Luoying also leaned on the edge of the table like Zhou Ruocheng and took the sushi on the plate handed over by Zhou Ruocheng.

"I thought someone like the princess wouldn't be interested in this kind of party." Zhou Ruocheng asked.

"I really don't like it, but I still have to come as a royal family." Li Luoying replied in a low voice.

Zhou Ruocheng shrugged his shoulders, "Anyway, your brother called me here, this kind of atmosphere can't be played at all." ”

"This party is not for you to come to play crazy, all the dignitaries and nobles present are in Jingzhou and even the surrounding areas, and the royal brother called you here to see the world." Li Luoying picked up a glass of wine and sipped it.

"Then which guys are more powerful, and the princess will introduce them to me?" Zhou Ruocheng asked.

"You'll have to stammer with Lord Zhou yourself." Li Luoying smiled.

"Princess, you know my situation, it's really not easy for me to clean up that mess in Jiangzhou, you're..." Zhou Ruocheng also whispered.

"Lord Zhou, don't you pay attention to what you say? In the news I received, Lord Zhou made Jiangzhou very troubled, and besides, I helped the adults a lot when I talked about the previous Fengle Building, what else do you want me to do? Li Luoying interrupted Zhou Ruocheng's speech.

"Ahh Such.. Okay, okay, I'll compromise, I'll do it myself~" Zhou Ruocheng made a gesture of surrender.

The sons on the side were also a little surprised to see this guy who didn't know where he came from, and talked to Princess Li Luoying about such speculation, but as an upper-class person, he had to show his calm and elegant side at any time.

After a while, these boys and buddies came to the two of them again.

"Princess." A son stepped forward.

"Oh, let me introduce, this is Hao Gongzi, the second son of the chief officer of the Jingzhou Border Guards." Li Luoying introduced Zhou Ruocheng.

"Oh, Hao Gongzi, look up for a long time." Zhou Ruocheng smiled and stretched out his right hand.

Hao Gongzi glanced at Zhou Ruocheng's hand, and finally stepped forward to shake it, "May I ask who this son is?" ”

"Oh, next week." Zhou Ruocheng replied, when he shook hands with him, he obviously felt the other party's coping, and it seemed that he did have some opinions about himself.

"Zhou Ruocheng? Zhou Gongzi, which adult's son in Jingzhou are you? Hao Gongzi asked.

"Uh... Adults are not counted, my family is from a literary game. Zhou Ruocheng replied.

"Oh, I look like a merchant." The smile on Hao Gongzi's face became even brighter, as if he was laughing at himself.

Zhou Ruocheng glanced at Li Luoying and expressed a kind of "What does this guy mean?" ".

Li Luoying didn't explain, just shrugged his shoulders.

Hao Gongzi didn't face Zhou Ruocheng directly, turned to face Li Luoying, and left Zhou Ruocheng with a back.

“。。。。。” Zhou Ruocheng also saw the attitude of several people towards him, and he also smiled bitterly in his heart, do you want to be so snobbish?

But at this time, Li Luoying looked at Zhou Ruocheng, "Lord Zhou, if you are bored, you can walk around." ”

"Oh." Zhou Ruocheng naturally didn't have the intention of stepping forward to fight for this tone, and walked away with acquaintance.

"My lord? Did this Zhou Gongzi serve in the imperial court? Hao Gongzi asked.

"No, he's a local man." Li Luoying replied.

"Local? Magistrate? Hao Gongzi asked again.

"It's the ruling government." Li Luoying continued to smile and walked away again.

Hao Gongzi was also stunned, as if he remembered something, the ruling government, Zhou Ruocheng? Could it be the dark horse at the beginning of this year? The one that has caused a lot of wind and waves in Jiangzhou?

If it is really him, then his attitude just now is very unseemly, from the official position, Zhou Ruocheng's official position is even higher than his father, and Xiang Li Luoying, a person who is extremely focused on his etiquette, naturally expresses his opinion on his behavior.

Eh, I did a stupid thing. Hao Gongzi also had no intention of talking to Li Luoying again because of this.

Li Luoying spared a circle, and met Zhou Ruocheng again, as if they were out of place in this trend, and the mutual attraction of the two was incompatible.

"I'll excuse you." Zhou Ruocheng said.

"I also gave enough face to Lord Zhou." Li Luoying smiled.

Zhou Ruocheng made a disgusted expression: "By the way, you came alone?" ”

"Isn't Lord Zhou alone?" Li Luoying asked.

"I wanted to bring my family, but your brother didn't agree." Zhou Ruocheng said.

"Want to take your little wife?" Li Luoying asked.

"Oh, that's not it, Qingyuan didn't come." Zhou Ruocheng said.

"You won't bring your baby wife with you when you go back to Jingzhou?" Li Luoying asked.

"Uh... I thought I would go back after the annual meeting, but who knew that your brother would give me such a show? Zhou Ruocheng replied.

"Hmph, people can't get in here even if they break their heads, and Lord Zhou really regards fame and fortune like dung." Li Luoying said.

"I'll just think you're complimenting me, eh, show you something good." Zhou Ruocheng took out a small box in his arms and opened it, it was the customized watch.

"Oh, it's a limited edition handmade by that Swiss master." Li Luoying recognized it at a glance, "The price is not cheap, who are you going to give it to?" ”

"Naturally, it's my precious wife." Zhou Ruocheng said.

"Your wife is really happy, and someone is willing to spend money for her." Li Luoying smiled.

"She's too bad at spending money, okay?" Zhou Ruocheng shrugged, "I thought the princess wasn't this kind of person who was interested in luxury, I didn't think she would recognize my watch, I originally wanted to brag to you." ”

"That's not it, it's mainly because a friend of mine was talking to me about the table earlier." Li Luoying replied.

"Friends?" Zhou Ruocheng looked at her with a surprised face, "I didn't expect the princess to have friends?" ”

"That's a faux pas." Li Luoying was still smiling, but her face darkened significantly.

Just as the two were talking, a person came up from behind and patted Li Luoying on the shoulder, "Sister Princess." ”

Li Luoying looked back at her, "Ah, why did you come, I just mentioned you." ”

"What did you mention about me?" The girl turned her head and saw Zhou Ruocheng, and then she showed a look of surprise and asked, "It's you?" ”
