In less than half a month, Ruan Tingge memorized all the footwork by heart, and then followed Jiang Bai to learn light kung footwork.

And Ruan Qiguang didn't have the slightest way to do this, so he could only order Jiang Bai to spend half a day teaching Ruan Qingge every day, and return to his side to protect him for the other half a day, while Jiang Qing still followed Ruan Qiguang all day.

Time flies, and another month has passed.

At this time, the palace was also lively, and they were busy organizing a state banquet to welcome the arrival of the envoys of Nanning.

The various powerful families in Jinling City also held various banquets, such as chrysanthemum banquets, poetry meetings and so on. The ladies of the family and the ladies of the official family were very enthusiastic in shuttling through the various banquets, passing on the news of the state banquet to each other, and asking each other to guess what the identity of the envoy of Nanning was this time.

Naturally, the Fenyang Royal Mansion received countless invitations, all of which came to invite the ladies of the Royal Mansion, especially Ruan Tingge, the lord of Yun'an County, to the banquet.

King Fenyang has a total of five daughters, except for Ruan Tingge, who is a concubine, the other four are concubines, namely the second miss Ruan Jingjia, the third miss Ruan Jingyi, the fourth miss Ruan Jingxian and the fifth miss Ruan Jingjiao.

Ruan Jingxian and Ruan Jingjiao are still young and have not reached the age of going out to socialize, and they are still living in the same courtyard with their biological mothers at this time. And Ruan Jingjia is the oldest, she is already twenty-eight years old at this time, and she began to care about her marriage.

She had copied the female commandments ten times a month ago, and was ungrounded by her grandmother, Mrs. Yide. Now after receiving the invitation, he is like a butterfly entering the flowers, going out to the banquet every day, leaving early and returning late, and his feet are so busy that his feet do not touch the ground.

The third lady, Ruan Jingyi, has a gentle and introverted personality, likes to be quiet, does not like to go out, and loves to stay in her Donghe courtyard all year round. Her biological mother An is also the same temperament, introverted and afraid of things, and does not like publicity, plus Ruan Jingyi is two years younger than Ruan Tingge, and she is not at the age of thinking about marriage at this time, so she has not gone out to participate in the banquet once.

Ruan Tingge was busy practicing light skills every day this month, and in his spare time, he stayed in the study to read all kinds of wild history and miscellaneous records, and his life was very rich. Although I received many invitations, I found reasons to refuse them one by one.

On this day, Lingyu brought many invitations, and looked at Ruan Qinge with some eyes.

Ruan Qinge came back from the martial arts training ground in the morning, sweating profusely, and just finished bathing at this time, lying lazily on the soft couch, holding a book of miscellaneous books of rivers and lakes to read, she turned her eyes and saw Lingyu's sad face, and couldn't help but say, "What is it that makes our sister Lingyu so embarrassed?" ”

Lingyu put the invitation on the desk, sighed and said to Ruan Tingge, "County Lord, don't make fun of slaves." It's not about these banquet posts, the slave maid has thought of all the excuses every day, and she really can't make up any new tricks. ”

Ruan Tingge said disapprovingly, "Then use the previous excuse to refuse." ”

Seeing that Lingyu was still bitter, she said again, "If you don't go to the banquet, your reply is no matter how fanciful it is, everyone actually knows what is going on." ”

Lingyu still looked worried, "If you want to talk about the posts of other official eunuch families, forget it, anyway, I don't dare to have any opinions on the county lord, but this Jinling Meng family has already given the county lord no less than five posts." Lingyu took out a gorgeous and delicate invitation card from the pile of invitations, "The slave maid has found all the excuses for the county lord, and I really don't know how to refuse." ”

Ruan Tingge's smile retracted, and he took the invitation card from Lingyu's hand, and his fingers swiped the paper slightly, landing on the signature at the end of the page.

"Second Miss of the Meng Family..."

Ruan Qian pointed at the singer, and an unknown light flashed in his eyes.

When she thought of Meng Yanwan, the pores of her whole body couldn't help but shrink slightly, not because she was afraid of Meng Yanwan, but because it reminded her of the scene of her tragic death in the cold palace in her previous life.

Although the Jinling Meng family and the Chenliu County Ruan family are both one of the three major families in Dongyun, due to their different concepts and positions, they have little contact with each other, and there are not many in-laws.

At this time, Meng Yanwan shouldn't know herself, why would she be so persistent in posting to the Fenyang Palace?

Ruan Tingge felt a hint of something unusual from this, and frowned slightly.

I saw that the date in the invitation was the second day of October, which is the tenth day later. She was really a little curious about Meng Yanwan's idea, and she also wanted to meet this enemy in her previous life.

Thinking that she was about to complete her light skills, she said to Lingyu, "You took this post for me, and I will go to Mengfu for a banquet in ten days." ”

Lingyu was a little puzzled, but he was glad that he didn't have to rack his brains anymore to think of excuses, so he complied.

Five days later, the martial arts training ground.

The martial arts training ground was very empty, and the guards who usually hummed and played with swords there were nowhere to be seen, only two figures stood on the field.

A figure dressed in black, slightly slender and shorter than the other, but delicate. The other figure was dressed in white, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, and a tall posture, holding a wooden stick in his forehand.

The two of them kept walking back and forth quickly, changing their pace.

The man in white held a wooden stick and poked at the shoulder of the girl in black, but she stepped back and nimbly avoided it.

Seeing this, the man in white sped up the speed of swinging the wooden stick, and quickly pointed, poked, and swept towards the girl, but the girl dodged one by one, and after more than a dozen moves, he didn't touch her clothes once.

The two of them went back and forth several times, and the two figures danced lightly like falling flowers, and they were as light and agile as butterflies, which was very good-looking.

Finally, the man in white stopped, hung down the wooden stick and stood beside him, and a clear and pleasant male voice sounded, "Congratulations to the county lord, the county lord's moon-stepping step has been practiced." ”

The girl in black was Ruan Qinge, her cheeks were slightly red at this time, she was a little panting, and she laughed when she heard Jiang Bai's words, "Sure enough, the hard work pays off." ”

She smiled with her eyebrows, very happy, and hugged her fist at Jiang Bai a little mischievously, "But there is also the credit of Jiang Guard's careful teaching." ”

Seeing Ruan Tingge's eyes shining like water and her face like peach blossoms, Jiang Bai's fair face showed a hint of redness, and he said a little uncomfortably, "It's the county lord's talent, and he can practice light skills in just about a month, which is really rare." ”

Hearing this, Ruan Tingge was a little stunned in his heart, and said with a grin, "Guard Jiang, don't praise me." ”

She rolled her eyes, took out a purse from her arms, and handed it to Jiang Bai, "This is a little care on my part, to repay the Jiang guard's half-master affection, and ask the Jiang guard to accept it." ”

Jiang Bai was slightly startled, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The county lord can't, this is the county lord's thing, and his subordinates can't accept it." ”

Ruan Qingge saw Jiang Bai's cautious appearance, and said with some disapproval, "Since I followed Jiang Guards to learn martial arts, even if I am half a person in the rivers and lakes, we should not follow the rules of the palace too much and be confined to the way of male and female defense." ”

Seeing Jiang Bai's still refusal look, Ruan Tingge was a little unhappy, "I have already sent the reward to Guard Jiang to his residence, and I specially prepared this thing in order to repay Professor Jiang Guard's efforts, is Guard Jiang really unwilling to accept it?" ”

Her expression was very serious, "Guard Jiang has always refused to accept it, is it because he is very disgusted with me, and he never wants to continue teaching me other martial arts in the future?" ”

"It's not!" Jiang Bai immediately denied it, then paused, and reached out to take Ruan Tingge's purse.

Ruan Tingge saw Jiang Bai accept it and smiled with satisfaction.

The purse is made of fine silk, and it feels extremely silky and soft, Jiang Bai holds the purse in his hand, and when he sees Ruan Tingge's smiling eyes, there is a soft touch in his heart.

"Although the county lord has already practiced light skills, he still has to practice more on weekdays, so as not to become rusty in the future." Jiang Bai put away the purse, thought about it and reminded.
