At the beginning of the lanterns, the Hou Mansion in the north of the town lit up the lamp, illuminating the road at the entrance of the Hou Mansion. The carriage drove out, the carriage drove in, and it was lively for a while, and then it was calm again.

The carriage in which the prince was riding galloped in, and before the carriage could stop, the prince lifted the curtain, jumped out of the car, and went straight to the small courtyard of Feiyu.

The courtyard was quiet, and even the door was locked. As soon as the prince walked to the door, a little girl who was cleaning the courtyard door approached and asked, "Your Highness, are you looking for the county lord?" ”

"What about people?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, the county lord has gone out, and Miss Huang has set up a banquet in Yankelou......"

The prince turned around and rushed out the door, saw the coachman who was still unloading the car, and pulled him over, "Quick, send me to Yankelou." ”

The coachman was stunned for a moment, hurriedly put the car back again, and looked back to see that several guards with the prince did not follow behind, he hesitated a little, looked around, and caught a glimpse of Du Ruo passing by the porch of the side door from a distance, so he hurriedly waved his hand to lure Du Ruo over. If no one follows the prince, in case there is a bad one, he will not dare to shoulder this responsibility.

Du Ruo greeted the prince through the carriage, he naturally knew the severity, and hurriedly took Qin Yecheng out of the house with the carriage.

Why did he have to see Kang Yufei, and what did he have to say to her after seeing her, the prince didn't think about it. Now sitting in the bumpy carriage, galloping all the way, he suddenly felt that he was too simple and persistent, what if he saw it? He still has to go back to the palace, and there are still mountains and rivers between the two, and the temple is lofty.

"Stop, stop." The voice is so small that it is not heard by others.

The carriage sped in the predetermined direction, and suddenly, it stopped, catching the prince off guard and slamming his head on the window. He rubbed his forehead, and just as he wanted to ask the reason, he glanced at the person outside the carriage from the window of the car, it was Zhao Jie.

"It's Ding Gongzi in the car?"

The prince replied in a trance, "Well, what's the matter?" ”

"It's about the county lord, is Ding Gongzi interested?"

The prince lifted the curtain and walked out, "What's wrong with the county lord?" ”

Zhao Jie smiled lightly and saluted, "Ding Gongzi doesn't have to be nervous, but there are some things related to the county lord, presumably Gongzi should be interested in listening to it." ”

The prince got out of the carriage and stared straight at Zhao Jie with his eyes.

"It's not very convenient here, is it? Childe is willing to ......"

Suddenly, a figure in the distance attracted the prince's attention, his eyes burst out of surprise, and when the figure slowly approached this side, he quickly put away his gaze and became panicked.

Originally, she was bent on looking for Kang Yufei, but when she really appeared in front of her, the prince's mind was blank, and he only felt that his heart was pounding.

"County Lord?" Zhao Jie followed the prince's eyes and was slightly surprised, "It's really a coincidence." She smiled, she was very good-looking.

Kang Yufei walked towards them, but his steps were very slow, and the smile on his face was also very slow, as if he was reluctant, but he had to be polite. Soon, she found Du Ruo's figure behind the carriage, and suddenly became relaxed, "Brother Ruo." ”

Du Ruowo nestled behind the carriage, nodded, and looked in the direction of the prince.

Kang Yufei walked up to the prince, lowered his eyes, and saluted.

"It's really fate, if the county lord is free, let's go and sit together?" Zhao Jie happily held Kang Yufei's arm.

Kang Yufei's body involuntarily shrank back, but she didn't escape Zhao Jie's enthusiasm, and could only be pulled in the direction of Hanxiang Courtyard.

The three of them walked together, but they were each thinking about it, and they were silent all the way. I only heard the sound of kicking and trampling horses' hooves behind him and Du Ruo's gentle coughing.

Although it is night, today's Hanxiang Courtyard is a little deserted, and after the main gate, there are few people on the way to Zhao Jie's courtyard.

The prince is thoughtful, and he is lazy to arrange Du Ruo and Qin Yecheng. Kang Yufei glanced at it coldly, although he was a little unhappy in his heart, but it was not easy to make trouble, "Brother Ruo, your body is just right, don't wait at the gate of the courtyard, there are few people today, you go find a room to sit in, there is me, and nothing will happen to that distinguished guest." ”

Du Ruo wanted to refuse, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he coughed and couldn't speak, so he could only let Qin Yecheng pull him into the room next to him.

Although it is past the winter solstice, the coolness in winter is still shivering. The prince and Kang Yufei were led into a guest room by Zhao Jie.

The room has already been served with charcoal, and the whole room is as warm as a sunny spring day. The incense burned in the incense burner is a very unique fragrance, like the fragrance of bamboo, and the fruity fragrance of pears, but there is a cold breath, which does not match the atmosphere of this incense courtyard.

The people brought tea and snacks up, Kang Yufei opened the lid, but it was jasmine tea, which was also not common in this Hanxiang Courtyard, she was slightly stunned, and secretly sighed Zhao Jie's unique taste.

The prince didn't have much to pay attention to the smell of tea, he just looked at Kang Yufei on the side blankly, and when she looked up, she retracted her thoughts in a panic. He originally came here to listen to Zhao Jie say something related to her, but now the situation is embarrassing, and he doesn't know what to say for a while, so he has to find some words, "Today here is not as lively as before." ”

"Yes. Although it has passed the winter solstice, according to our weather, there will be a few snowfalls in a few days, and everyone is too lazy to go out to get frozen, and they are all warm in the bed. ”

"Is it going to snow again?" It doesn't look like it's like today. ”

"It's all snowing, and it's going to get warmer in the next few days." Zhao Jie raised her hand to call people in, "The sisters' singing and dancing practice has been lazy these days, so it's not good to come out and offer ugliness." But our newly brewed wine has been opened, can the county lord and Ding Gongzi taste it? ”

Kang Yufei shook his head, "I was frozen a few days ago, and my body was just right, so I won't drink it." ”

The prince was about to help Kang Yufei get rid of it, when he heard her open her mouth, he also said politely, "Your tea here is very good, so you don't have to bother preparing wine." ”

"Hey, they're all distinguished guests, and the tea and hospitality are too simple." Zhao Jie smiled brightly at the prince, Kang Yufei couldn't help but turn her face away and stop talking.

Soon the servant brought two jars of wine, and when the lid was lifted, the aroma of the wine overflowed, completely covering the fragrance in this room.

Zhao Jie poured a full glass of wine, brought it to the prince, and smiled charmingly, "Ding Gongzi's amount of wine, the slave family has seen it." ”

The prince unconsciously glanced back at Kang Yufei, and saw that her face was not good-looking, so he hurriedly pushed the wine bowl out, "Miss Zhao, forget it today, you see, the county lord can't drink either, let's ......" He didn't come here to drink, and now he is not in the mood. Thinking about it in my heart, the strength in my hand inevitably used up a little, and I pushed the wine in the wine bowl on the ground, "Ah, I'm sorry ......"

He stretched out his hand to straighten the wine bowl, but he hurriedly bumped into the wine bowl in Zhao Jie's other hand, and the wine was all sprinkled on him.

Zhao Jie was very anxious, pulled out the handkerchief in the cuffs, and hurriedly wiped it for him, "It's all the slave family, it's too careless." ”
