Originally, the birthday banquet was about to start, but because Xie Wuyi suddenly arrived, Luo Shuran hurriedly ordered the kitchen to add more dishes, so the time was slightly delayed.

At this time, Xie Wuyi was invited by Luo Shuran to the study to admire the paintings of famous artists.

And Xie Changye took Xiao Linzi to wander in the garden of Luofu.

The garden in Luofu is not big, but after all, it is summer, and all kinds of flowers are blooming just right, Xie Changye leaned on the edge of the rockery, while enjoying the garden view, while nibbling on the peaches in his hands.

"Master, looking at Prime Minister Duan's appearance just now, it is clear that he was not lightly thundered by your words." Xiao Linzi stood beside Xie Changye, remembering Duan Mufeng's expression just now, he couldn't help but speak.

"This king is just telling the truth, besides, the truth is still for the sake of him being a beautiful man."

Xiao Linzi felt that he was almost used to his prince's brain circuit, not only did not twitch the corners of his mouth, but nodded seriously.

"Indeed, the Prime Minister has always had the reputation of being a gentleman like jade, but if you really want to compare your appearance, you must not lose to Prime Minister Duan."

It's this temperament aspect...... Well, can't compare.

"That's it!" Xie Changye raised his eyebrows proudly, "Speaking of which, is there any competition for the most beautiful man in this imperial city?" ”

"The first beautiful man?" Xiao Linzi shook his head, "This is not true, but if you want to evaluate, you and the emperor will definitely be among the best." ”

"Xie Wuyi?" Xie Changye took another bite of the peach and thought about it, "Xie Wuyi's face is indeed very good, but he has a debt collection face every day, and he doesn't know who owes him dozens of taels of silver." ”

Xiao Linzi's heart tightened, and he hurriedly spoke: "Master, be cautious!" ”

"This king is just telling the truth, but this king is also his nominal seventh brother, and every time he sees me, it is like seeing an enemy. Alas, in contrast, it is still Duan Mufeng, a beautiful man who is as gentle as jade, to be pleasing! ”

Xie Changye opened his mouth with emotion, and as he spoke, he saw Xie Wuyi and Sui Feng coming from another road at a glance.

Damn, I really said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.

Seeing that Xie Wuyi hadn't looked in his direction yet, Xie Changye immediately threw away the half-gnawed peach in his hand, and dragged Xiao Linzi to hide behind the rockery.

"Master, this ......"

"Shh Xie Changye hurriedly made a silent movement.

It's just that he said a few bad things about Xie Wuyi, and he saw him immediately, so it was better to hide from him, and he was taught an inexplicable lesson again.

After a while, Xie Changye quietly poked his head out from behind the rockery, wanting to see if Xie Wuyi had walked away, but he didn't see a figure.

"Hey, are you going so fast, people?"

"I'm behind you."

A chill swished on his back, Xie Changye turned around stiffly and looked at Xie Wuyi and Sui Feng, and raised his hand to say hello.

"Hey, Brother Huang, what a coincidence!"

Is Xie Wuyi a Piao, why is there no sound when he walks!

Looking at Xie Changye's appearance, Xie Wuyi couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"When you see me, hide it, Xie Changye, what did you do wrong?"

"Of course not." Xie Changye smiled flatteringly, "The younger brother has always been upright, and he always takes the imperial brother as a model, how can he do something wrong." ”

Xie Wuyi looked at Xie Changye, who was smiling with crooked eyebrows, and for a while, he couldn't tell clearly, whether he was bored or speechless in his heart, and opened his mouth to say:

"Xie Changye, can you not always look like a dog."

Xie Changye: "......"

Sui Feng on the side: "......"

The emperor finally said what was in his heart!

Seeing that Xie Changye was stunned in place and didn't speak, Xie Wuyi frowned slightly, "Why, I'm your imperial brother anyway, and I can't talk about you." ”

Although this dog-legged appearance is not very annoying for some reason, of course...... He would never say that.

Xie Changye pursed his lips, and his face fell, "That's right." ”

"Then why don't you speak?"

Xie Changye glanced at Xie Wuyi, "Brother Chen's self-esteem has hurt." ”

A cat that stepped on its tail for a while, a dog with legs for a while, dare to be in Xie Wuyi's heart, he is not suitable to be a person.

If it weren't for the secret that she could lose her head all the time, would she be so aggrieved! Phew, Dog Emperor!

Xie Wuyi was just speechless for a moment just now, and then he said that, and now it seems that he is really sad to see Xie Changye like this, and suddenly there is something wrong in his heart.

"I ......"

Xie Wuyi was thinking about whether to say a few words to ease up, when Luo Shuran came over.

"Your Majesty, the banquet is ready, please move."

Xie Wuyi nodded, glanced at Xie Changye again, and coughed lightly.

"Seventh brother, let's go."

After speaking, as if he had completed the task of easing the atmosphere, he turned around and went in the direction of the banquet.

And Xie Changye rolled his eyes at Xie Wuyi's back, but in the end, he could only follow obediently.

Luo Shuran was born as a literati, and he attaches great importance to elegance on weekdays, so the banquet venue is set up in the bamboo forest of Luofu.

The summer breeze is gusting and the green shadow is deep, which not only reduces most of the heat, but also makes people feel a little relaxed.

Xie Wuyi had already taken a seat, and Luo Shuran had someone bring up a potted plant, which was also covered with a red cloth.

"Your Majesty, Weichen got a pot of dead wood in spring a few days ago, and today the minister wants to borrow flowers to offer Buddha and give it to the emperor."

Xie Wuyi slowly put down the teacup in his hand, "It's rare for dead wood to meet spring." However, today is Taifu's birthday, so naturally I should prepare a congratulatory gift for Taifu, so why should I receive the gift. ”

Xie Changye sat down with Xie Wuyi, and when she heard this, she glanced at Xie Wuyi, not knowing if it was her delusion, she felt that Xie Wuyi did not seem to be as close to Luo Shuran as rumored.

Luo Shuran immediately said: "It is already a great honor for the emperor to come to the minister's house today, this bonsai is just a little bit of the minister's heart, and I hope the emperor will accept it." ”

"Mrs. Luo really has a heart, Your Majesty, you can accept it."

"That's right, this dead wood is rare in spring, and today I can follow the emperor to open his eyes."

The ministers on the side spoke up.

Xie Wuyi nodded slightly, "Since that's the case, then open it and take a look." ”

"Yes." Luo Shuran replied.

Then he turned around and ordered the little servant next to him to lift the red cloth.

Xie Changye also looked over with interest.

The red cloth was slowly lifted, and the first thing that caught my eye was a valuable white jade flower pot, followed by a large piece of rotten wood that had dried up, with a strange shape and a bit of a rugged feeling.

Looking up again, Xie Changye almost didn't squirt out a sip of tea.

There was indeed a new branch growing on the top of the dry dead wood, but it had broken off at the waist, and most importantly, there was a very familiar half of a peach stuck between the branches of the dead wood......
