The palace banquet is still lively, and a dazzling variety of dishes are placed in front of everyone. (Read the novel network):. There are many styles and tricks, and it seems that after taking a bite of each dish, before you can taste all the dishes, your stomach will be full. Bai Xixie did not sit for a long time at the palace banquet, and after presenting a congratulatory gift on behalf of Yu Mingguo, he and Li Qiao left the main hall, and the two found a quiet place alone to drink and talk.

Refreshingly drank the wine bottle in his hand in one gulp, touched the wine stains on his lips with his sleeve, Li Qiao roared loudly,

"Cool! It's been a long time since I've had such a good time drinking with Brother Xie! It's so refreshing! ”

Looking at Li Qiao with a happy face, Bai Xixie was also full of joy, but there was a faint sadness between his eyebrows. The moonlight shone through the dappled shadows of the trees on Bai Xixie's clear eyes, and there was nowhere to hide the sadness and loneliness.

"Are my father and mother alright?" Bai Xixie put down the wine jug in his hand and asked lightly.

"Why don't you go to Kirin Villa to see them? They've been thinking about you for more than three years. You didn't even sue them for the wedding, didn't you go too far? ”

"Big wedding? Hmph, that's just a façade! ”

"Disguise? Don't you love that empty whisper very much? This is something that everyone in the world knows. Since you Bai Xixie saw her for the first time at the age of twelve, your heart has long been occupied by that woman. Now that he has finally married her back, why do you still say that this big wedding is a cover? ”

Bai Xixie just shook his head, there were many things that he couldn't explain to Li Qiao at all. There is only silence.

Seeing that Bai Xixie was a little embarrassed, he didn't ask any more.

"You're going to continue to be your Great Pharmacist here? Do you care about the Kirin Villa? Bai Xixie asked suddenly. (Read the novel network)

"I originally planned to resign from the emperor after the crown prince was sealed, but now I have other ideas!" Li Qiao's eyes flashed with a strange light, and he did not hide it from Bai Xixie.

"Ahh Why are you hitting me? ”

With a hard slap on the back of Li Qiao's head, Bai Xixie showed a wicked smile, "Say, what kind of woman makes you so naïve!" ”

"Childish? Am I naïve? Li Qiao hurriedly brushed his hands on his face, touching here and poking there, looking very funny.

"So it's true? Which lady is the daughter? Let me see you too? ”

Li Qiao reopened a pot of wine, took a sip and said,

"She's not a daughter, she's just a guard!"

"Guards? Female guards? "This makes Bai Xixie a little new.

"Yes, not long after I arrived, it was the female guard in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Fengtian Kingdom! I fell in love with her at first sight, and I'm still her savior! But she is the prince's savior! The prince also likes her very much! Speaking of this, Li Qiao couldn't hide the loss in his heart.

"What kind of woman is she?"

Bai Xixie suddenly became curious, although the younger brother in front of him was not close to women, but his vision was very high, otherwise, he would not be alone until now.

"She's beautiful! Her beauty is untouchable, but she is also cold, cold like a snow lotus on a high mountain. Hearing Li Qiao's description, a pure shadow suddenly appeared in Bai Xixie's mind.

"Did you sue her? Do you like her? ”

Li Qiao shook his head,

"No, I don't think she'll accept me!"

"How do you know if you don't try? You're not her, she won't know if she accepts you if you don't try! It may have a small chance of trying, but if you run away, then you won't even have a chance! ”

Bai Xixie's words did not make Li Qiao feel comfortable, but became even heavier,

"You haven't seen her, and if you did, you'd see that there was no place in her eyes to look at me. There's a lot of apathy. I think she must have been hurt a lot before she became like this! I don't want to get her, I just want to be able to watch her by her side, even if I see her really happy and smile once, I think I'll be satisfied! Li Qiao imagined, and a reassuring smile appeared on his face.

"It's done!"

Bai Xixie suddenly touched the wine jug in his hand to the wine jug in Li Qiao's hand, and the two looked at each other and smiled, raising their glasses and drinking.

The wine entered his throat, spicy and strong, but Baekhe-sub felt more bitterness!

Seven or eight wine jugs have bottomed out, the two of them are sitting under the tree, and Bai Xixie opened his mouth to ask Li Qiao,

"You hate them?"

Li Qiao sighed deeply and said with a smile,

"Don't hate, that's fake! Because I'm not an immortal, I have a lot of seven emotions and six desires in the world! However, I will try not to hate them, and try to forget! Since I changed my name to Li Qiao, Bai Xiqi, the fifth prince of Yuming Kingdom, has already died! It doesn't matter if you die of illness or if you're framed and die. Because that person has long since disappeared from everyone's sight. Now I am just Li Qiao, Li Qiao, the owner of Qilin Villa, Li Qiao, the great pharmacist of Fengtian Kingdom, and Li Qiao, who is silently watching a woman! ”

Take a sip of wine,

"Cough, cough, cough......" Li Qiao was choked, and tears slipped down the corners of his eyes.

"You know what? I'm starting to envy you! Bai Xixie suddenly said with a smile.

"It turns out that I, Li Qiao, will be envied one day, or the famous cold prince Baixie, Yuming Kingdom, I Li Qiao has no regrets in my life, hahahaha!"

Looking at the former cousin in front of him, the fifth prince Bai Xiqi, who rescued him from the pond when he was five years old and secretly took him out of the palace, drank the wine in his hand so freely today, he was really envious.

Li Qiao suddenly put down the wine glass in his hand and asked with some decline,

"Is she okay?"

Baek Xi-sub replied,

"Okay, it's just lonely! Every year when the cherry blossoms fall, she will make a paper lantern and hang it in front of the door, and there should be twenty-one hanging in front of the palace at this time. ”

Li Qiao clenched the wine jug in his hand tightly, he knew that every year when the cherry blossoms fell, it was his birthday!

"Where's Xi Xi?" Li Qiao asked again,

"She didn't know that there was a brother like you, she was already old enough to get married, and the emperor might point her to a marriage next year! When the time comes, I'll do my best! ”

"Thank you!" Li Qiao lowered his head, tears dripping from his eyes, but this time he was no longer choked by wine!

Bai Xixie gently patted him on the back and didn't say a word.

"I'll go back and help you cover it up and take her out, after all, it wasn't her fault back then!" Bai Xixie said with a deep sigh.

"Yes!" Li Qiao nodded.

The east was already bright, the sun had dispelled the dark clouds, and the birds in the forest had begun to spread their wings and fly in the clear blue sky. Who knows if tomorrow will be such good weather.
