Gu Shengge is wearing a pale pink tassel light gauze skirt today, the skirt is embroidered with delicate flowers, and the wide sleeves are covered with a layer of tulle, the woman's steps are light, and with every step, the tulle will fly gently with the movements.

Walking to the pavilion, I thought I would see Ying Wei sitting in the center making tea, but Gu Shengge found a woman in a cyan skirt standing not far away.

"Ahh

When Xun Yuan heard the voice, he slowly turned around, smiled and walked in the direction of Gu Shengge.

"Why are you here?" Gu Shengge took Xun Yuan's hand and found that it was a little cold, and then looked at the paleness on her face that was difficult to hide, and couldn't help but worry.

"The prince said that if he wants to see you, he will wait here."

Should it be punished? When he said this, Gu Shengge's eyes widened, his heart was happy, and he hurriedly asked, "What did the prince say today?" ”

"The prince talked with his father for a while, I waited outside the door, I don't know what he said," Xun Tao paused, and said: "However, depending on what my father meant, the prince doesn't seem to be embarrassed." ”

Gu Shengge breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but feel a trace of warmth in his heart, he didn't care about it after all.

"However, I am also lucky," Xun Yuan suddenly laughed softly, his face full of self-deprecation: "Fortunately, the prince has been busy with official business recently, and he hasn't had time to inform the emperor about the marriage, otherwise, I will really hurt people this time." ”

While speaking, the pain in Xun Yuan's eyes, Gu Shengge naturally saw it.

The white plain hand gently stroked Xun Yuan's shoulder, patted it gently, and his face was full of smiles: "It seems that our Ah Tao is blessed by the gods, and we will be able to turn evil into good fortune every time in the future." ”

Xun Yuan was finally amused by Gu Shengge, and burst out laughing.

"Then I'll borrow your good words."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!"

The back garden of the Yuanwang Mansion is very large, several paths connect the pavilions and water pavilions, Gu Shengge and Xun Yuan are talking and laughing in the pavilion, and through a deep path, it is a delicate pavilion.

The pavilion is surrounded by a stream of clear water, and under the water are reefs, and the spring water flows past it, gently lapping the stones, and from time to time there is a crisp sound.

And in the pavilion is placed on the stone table is a game of chess, the chessboard is made of fine agarwood, carved by skilled craftsmen. A person at the table held a black piece made of black jade and gently placed it on the chessboard. Then he grabbed a white seed made of snow-white mutton fat jade with no variegated body, and put it on in an orderly manner.

The chessboard is crisscrossed with white and black seeds, which are intricately intertwined. The black and white offense and defense were swapped, and soon a large area on the chessboard was covered in black and white, and every move was extremely clever, and the moves were fatal, and the dangers were repeated but there was room for improvement. In the end, it seems that each side is amazingly evenly matched, and no one has the upper hand.

"Lord, the princess has already seen Miss Xun," Shi Yuan walked over and saluted, and said respectfully.

"Hmm," Ying Wei replied lightly, and the sound of falling chess pieces sounded in his hand.

Shi Yuan looked at the game of chess played by Ying Wei, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Wang Ye has been talented since he was a child, and chess skills are only one of the things he is proficient in.

It's really not that Qi Yuan lacks people with superb chess skills, but the prince's ability to control the overall situation is something that few people can afford on the battlefield, let alone on the chessboard.

The hand holding the chess piece slowly stopped in mid-air, staring at the chessboard indifferently, "Tell Meng Shangshu to bring people over before the sun rises tomorrow." ”

"Yes," Shi Yuan nodded, knowing the importance of this matter, and then thought about it and said: "Lord Wang, the vigilance over there has been very high recently, and only two of the people sent over a few days ago have brought back the news. ”

"Someone from the Xun Mansion will come over to deliver things, and you will bring them to Meng Shangshu at that time."

Xunfu? Shi Yuan was stunned, could it be General Xun's summons? The prince actually borrowed all the summons of General Xun? !

"Tell him that if the king can't see anyone, he won't have to come back." The expression is extraordinarily light and light, Ying Wei's fingers fell, the sunspots fell into the chessboard, and the crisp collision sound of the good jade was accompanied by an understatement.

"Yes,"

It stands to reason that Ying Wei has always disliked the redundant people around him, and Shi Yuan should retire now.

But today is far from abnormal, half an hour has passed, and it is still here.

Ying Wei frowned slightly, raised his eyes, and his eyes were full of impatience: "Anything else?" ”

Shi Yuan's expression is a little subtle now, his eyebrows are twisted together, and he seems to be very entangled, and after thinking about it for a long time, he really doesn't know whether to say it or not.

When he met Ying Wei's eyes, his heart was groaning, his mind suddenly went blank, he struggled for a long time, stiffened his face, and pointed behind Ying Wei: "Lord Wang....."

"I.... I just saw it."

"The princess seems to have left the house with Miss Xun."

When Ying Wei heard this, he turned around and saw only the empty pavilion, and sure enough, the temperature around him dropped instantly.

Shi Yuan felt a hint of coolness coming to him, and couldn't help but take a step back.

Ying Wei said that Gu Shengge couldn't leave the house easily, but she thought about it carefully, Ying Wei and his old man had every opportunity, she secretly went out once or twice, and she shouldn't be discovered.

Thinking about it, he walked to the door of the restaurant.

The two glanced at each other and took a tacit step.

walked to the second floor with a familiar way, and Xiao Er came up with a smile.

smiled at Xun Yuan: "Miss Xun, you're here!" ”

After saying hello, he looked behind Xun Yuan again, which was amazing.

Xiao Er saw Gu Shengge, his eyes straightened for a moment, and the whole person was stunned in place, and it took a long time before he said stupidly: "The girl was born so good-looking, why have I never been...."

Before he finished speaking, a palm stretched out behind him, with full strength, "Stinky boy, I'm tired of being alive, isn't it, this is Princess Yuan, don't hurry up and salute." ”

The middle-aged man withdrew his hand, walked up to Gu Shengge with a smile, and said respectfully: "See the princess Niangniang, I don't know that the princess is coming, and the little one is far away." ”

When Xiao Er heard it, this beauty turned out to be the princess of King Yuan. Hiss, with a gasp, Xiao Er hurriedly bent down, and his head was almost on the ground: "Princess Niangniang forgive her sins." ”

"It's a small thing," Gu Shengge smiled and waved his hand, and looked at the boss again: "I don't have so many rules, just like you usually do." ”

The boss smiled and nodded hurriedly, his hand bent slightly, and said, "Princess Niangniang, please." ”

The owner of the restaurant is quite good at choosing, and chose a quiet and elegant private room for them.

After Xun Yuan sat down, he said to the boss: "It's the same." ”

The boss smiled and nodded, beckoned Xiao Er to serve a pot of tea, and after burning a faint incense, he withdrew.

The two of them drank tea quietly, not saying a word about yesterday's events.

Gu Shengge glanced at the tea in front of him, picked it up and smelled it, smiled, took a sip lightly, and nodded: "This tea seems to be different from last time." ”

"This is a tea like a leaf, it is a specialty of the west area, it is only produced once a year, except in the palace, and only this can be drunk." Xun Yuan explained, and then said with a smile: "You have a good mouth." ”

Gu Shengge smiled and keenly captured the point.

"Except here, only in the palace. You mean to say..."

"That's right, this restaurant is a royal supplier." Xun Yun took over and added a cup of tea, "And every year the palace will leave a part of the tea to reward the restaurant, but it is only a small part, and most of it is still in the palace." ”

Gu Shengge nodded, silently raised the teacup, didn't speak, but his brain was running quickly.

"Here comes your wine." Xiao Er put a few jars of autumn dew on the table, Gu Shengge took the opportunity to stop Xiao Er, and inadvertently smiled: "Your tea is good." ”

When Xiao Er heard this, he grinned and said a little proudly: "What the princess said is that this tea is a reward from the palace, although the amount is small, it is enough for those high-ranking officials and nobles to come here to drink for several days." ”

"Do officials often come here for tea?"

"That's right, people come every day," Xiao Er is a young man who is more active, and begins to gush: "Our restaurant is different from others, ordinary guests are arranged to eat on the first floor, while the second and third floors are prepared for those with status. ”

Seeing that Gu Shengge was interested, Xiao Er chatted with the customer with great interest.

"There are many official wives who come here every year to buy tea and entertain guests."

"But they all sent stewards to fetch them."

Gu Shengge listened carefully while drinking tea. At the end of the conversation, he took a certain amount of silver taels and handed it to Xiao Er. Xiao Er thanked him and accepted it with a smile.

Xun Yuan listened to the side without speaking, and after Xiao Er left, he said: "I used to come at this time often, if I remember correctly, in ten days, the right prime minister's wife will send someone to pick it up." ”

When Gu Shengge heard this, he raised his eyes to look at Xun Yuan, then smiled, and picked up a jar of autumn dew: "Ah Tao understands me." ”
