The sound of compliments around was endless, and when they were tired of coping, two people in scarlet robes and official uniforms walked into the crowd, it was Taishi Ling Zhang Hong and Hanlin Bachelor Dong Mingchang, as soon as these two people came, everyone was a little quieter, and they gave the two of them a salute.

Dong Mingchang returned the salute one by one, and then looked at Chen Siye and said, "It's just that I haven't seen him for a few days, and Chen Gongzi once again impressed me, it's really breathtaking." ”

"Chen Gongzi has already entered the office, and his progress is just around the corner, you should call Chen Zhizhao." Zhang Hong corrected with a smile on the side.

Dong Mingchang patted his head: "Oh yes, I'm confused, Chen Zhizhao Lord Chen, haha, but it's better to call Chen Gongzi more smooth." ”

Hearing that the two of them were a little ridiculous, Chen Siye smiled bitterly: "The two adults have tormented me, the two adults have the grace to support me, how to call me how to do it, today's matter is not worth mentioning, it is not worth mentioning." ”

"How can you call it not worth mentioning?" At this time, a slightly majestic voice suddenly came, and I saw the crowd make a way, and King Pingxi and Jin Hongtai, who were dressed in python robes, walked over, and everyone bowed down one after another, "Lord Wang, His Royal Highness." ”

The person who spoke was none other than the king of Pingxi. King Pingxi is about fifty years old, his eyes are like copper bells, his face is square, he has a beard, and he doesn't look angry and arrogant, which is not quite similar to Jin Hongtai and Jin Hongyi.

"In the eyes of this king, you are much stronger than many of the people present, heh, it is not worth mentioning that you are too modest."

King Pingxi spoke very directly, and everyone around him was a little embarrassed when he heard this.

Chen Siye was also a little embarrassed, why did King Pingxi and Emperor Ji both offend him?

After thinking for a moment, he said: "The prince has won the award, if it weren't for the support of all the adults, I am afraid that I would not dare to stand up, and His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, He Gongzi, Wang Dali, and all the adults cheered up, everyone has contributed, and it is difficult for me to support it alone." ”

One sentence immediately resolved the embarrassment, and everyone's favor for him also increased by a point, and King Pingxi looked at him approvingly and smiled: "Well said!" This king has heard Hong Tai Hongyi mention your name several times, and when I saw it today, I was really angry, a young hero. ”

After a pause, he said: "This king still has to stay in Beijing for a little more time, and you and young people like Hongtai Hongyi should be closer these days." ”

Chen Siye was flattered and said yes, and couldn't help but think in his heart: I am already quite close to Jin Hongtai, but how to get close to Jin Hongyi?

"This king is one step ahead, don't bother you, you can talk." King Pingxi obviously just said hello to Chen Siye, and turned around to leave.

Jin Hongtai also smiled at Chen Siye and followed King Pingxi away, and everyone hurriedly bowed down to see each other off.

Subsequently, Zhang Hong, Dong Mingchang and the rest of the people also gossiped with him and left one after another.

At this time, in addition to those palace people who cleaned up the mess, only Chen Siye was left.

Shaking his head, Chen Siye was also about to leave, but he had the intention to find the women but he didn't know where they were, and it was a little inappropriate, so he could only go back first.

As soon as he came out of Wangchun Palace, he saw a figure standing not far away, and when he looked closely, he found that this was He Shang.

At this time, He Shang seemed to hesitate, and when Chen Siye approached, He Shang seemed to have made up his mind to come over to talk.

"Chen Zhizhao, what a coincidence, haha."

Chen Siye is a little inexplicable, where is the coincidence? Everyone is gone, and they are obviously waiting for him.

"Definitely

It's a coincidence.... Why hasn't He Gongzi left yet? But what else? ”

Chen Siye's footsteps did not stop, and He Shang also followed, and the two walked side by side.

"Uh... It's nothing..."After a pause, He Shang continued: "Today, thanks to Chen Zhizhao, I am deeply admired. ”

Chen Siye looked at him strangely, and said in his heart that he had waited for me for so long to compliment me?

"He Gongzi's piano skills also opened my eyes, and I also admired him for having such attainments."

Hearing his words, He Shang's face was both ashamed and embarrassed, "I didn't win that Lu Chenyi, and I also feel deeply guilty, why should Chen Zhizhao be sarcastic to me?" ”

Knowing that He Shang misunderstood what he meant, Chen Siye explained: "He Gongzi misunderstood me, I am sincere, at the beginning, He Gongzi's piano sound was mellow and crisp, which made people intoxicated, which shows the depth of He Gongzi's attainments." ”

He Shang was obviously stunned, and then sighed: "Chen Zhizhao is ashamed of me, what kind of attainment, that 'Yangchun Baixue' is still confident that it will not lose to anyone in the next book, but I didn't expect that in the end, it would lose before even the song was played." ”

"Don't be discouraged Gongzi He, in fact, you may not be inferior to that Lu Chenyi, he is just a trick, if it is a serious competition, it is not known who wins and who loses."

In fact, it should be said that Lu Chenyi cheated, and his method is obviously not the right way.

"What do you mean?" He Shang looked confused, he still didn't know why he lost.

"I already saw the clues when the two of you competed," Seeing his puzzled look, Chen Siye patiently explained his doubts, "Then Lu Chenyi's technique is sometimes fast and sometimes slow, almost invisible, but it is also this subtle that disrupts your original rhythm, so it will make you feel more and more difficult to play." ”

Listening to his words, He Shang suddenly realized, and said angrily: "I said why did I always feel a little weird at that time, no matter how I played, it didn't feel right, and it became more and more difficult to continue later, it turned out that he was making trouble!" ”

"The main thing is that you are unsettled, which is why you are easily influenced by him."

Chen Siye's earnest teaching, the feeling of talking eloquently and having people cheering him on made him very enjoyable.

After being silent for a while, He Shang suddenly stood up and saluted him and said, "Thank you Chen Beizhao for your advice, I am grateful!" ”

Since he became this Hanlin edict, Chen Siye has always been called Chen Zhizhao, if the age difference is larger, then it is fine, but he is not much different from He Shang, but he also calls him like this, he is really not used to it, so he waved his hand and said: "You don't need to call me Chen Zhizhao, we are the same age, you can call me by my name or call me Brother Chen Ye Brother directly." ”

In fact, He Shang is already in his twenties, and Chen Siye took advantage of others when he said this.

"That's... Brother Ye! Haha, Brother Ye is really good-looking. ”

Chen Siye also smiled, but he suddenly thought, why didn't he wait for him to talk about this?

So he asked directly: "By the way, Brother Shang was waiting for me just now?" ”

He Shang smiled a little embarrassedly and said: "I was seen by Brother Ye, I can't hide it, but I am waiting for Brother Ye, in fact, I have something to tell you." ”

"Originally, I was still a little hesitant, but I must tell Brother Ye about this at this time."

Chen Siye was curious: "What's the matter?" ”

He Shang turned his head to look around, and then whispered mysteriously: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to be unfavorable to Brother Ye and Lord Pingle, Brother Ye should be more careful." ”

As soon as he heard this, Chen Siye suddenly frowned, he didn't expect that Li Runze had been grounded and still had a thief's heart, and he didn't know what he was planning.

But it's no wonder that He Shang has been hesitating just now, this is not something that can be said casually. But it can also be seen that He Shang is a good person, but he is willing to wait for him for so long to remind him.

So he said in a low voice: "Thank you Brother Shang for reminding me, I will be careful." ”

Then he asked, "But how did Brother Shang know about this?" ”

He Shang sighed and said: "I can't hide it, because my grandfather is the crown prince, I have known His Royal Highness since childhood, and I am relatively close. ”

"Originally, His Royal Highness was very kind to people, gentle and elegant, and had a very gentlemanly style, but in recent years, for some reason, his temperament has changed a lot, not only recklessly, but also become much more ruthless, beating and scolding his subordinates at every turn, and not listening to people's persuasion."

"Originally, His Highness had nothing to do with me, but now he is hiding everything from me. I went to visit him yesterday, and I only knew that he had leaked his mouth, and it seems that there are still Wu Guoren involved in this matter, and Brother Ye must be more careful. ”

Chen Siye couldn't help frowning, what is this Li Runze trying to do? Even colluded with the Wu Guoren? Don't you want to be a prince?

"Thank you, Brother Shang, for telling me about this, I think you must have taken a great risk, you have to be careful, if the matter of you walking with me reaches the ears of the prince, I am afraid that it will also be unfavorable to you."

He Shang shook his head and said, "It's okay, Your Highness won't do anything to me, and then I'll go and persuade Your Highness." And Brother Ye is the talent of my Da Ji, and I will contribute to Da Ji in the future, if I don't tell Brother Ye about this, my conscience will be uneasy. ”

Hearing this, Chen Siye couldn't help laughing, it would be strange if a paranoid like Li Runze could be persuaded, "What kind of pillar talent, when the crown prince ascends the throne, I'm afraid it will also be the time when I suffer." ”

He Shang sighed, and he didn't know what to say.

There was nothing to say all the way, and after leaving the palace, the two parted ways and went home.

When I returned to the county lord's mansion, all the women had not returned, it seemed that there was a dinner party in the palace in the evening, but this dinner was all royal family, but there was nothing to do with the ministers.

As soon as he returned to Tingzhuyuan, he was surrounded by Jingqing and Miaozhu Xiangling, and they surrounded him with great interest and asked him how the emperor's birthday banquet was today, Chen Siye was also happy to tell them, and after changing into official clothes, he sat down and told the three of them in detail about the luxury of this birthday banquet, as well as what they saw and heard on the birthday banquet.

Of course, how to pretend to be forced is the focus of his story, and he exaggerated a little, plus his eloquence is good, and the three of them yearn for it, but they hate not being able to see him pressing the Wu Guoren to the ground and rubbing it with their own eyes.

Talking until dark, he ended pretending to be forced, the women hadn't come back at this time, it seemed that they were going to stay in the palace tonight, Chen Siye was also happy that he didn't have to cook tonight, so several people ate the original chef's meal again tonight.

The girls did not come back, it was night, when Chen Siye was asleep, suddenly there was an alarm in his heart, and he was awakened suddenly, and when he saw a figure standing in front of the bed, he subconsciously rolled towards the bed, and at the same time touched the chopping wind hidden under the pillow.

Chopping the wind started, which immediately made him feel a lot more relieved, a carp sat up straight, held the chopping wind in front of him, looked at the figure and said coldly: "Who! ”

This person is dressed in black, and his face is also covered, although Chen Siye can see at night now, but after all, he can't see through, so he doesn't know who it is, but he always feels that this person's figure is somewhat familiar.
