What explanation does he have to come to her for her to say? He even wanted to ask, if he hadn't become an official in the court today, he would never see her again, and then it would be impossible to hear any so-called explanations?

If this is an explanation that is forced by the situation, it is too weak, too reluctant, and too cheap. 【Latest chapter reading. 】

The more Ji Lingnan said a point, Xia Xiaoxiao's face turned pale under the illumination of these glass lamps, but Ji Lingnan just turned a deaf ear from beginning to end, and his tone became more and more indifferent, "But there is one thing I am still a little relieved, I thought that Niangniang planned to treat me as a stranger and pretend not to know it, but now Niangniang is still better away from Xiao, I am afraid that I will defile your identity." ”

He didn't even wait for Xia Xiaoxiao to react, and the person had already directly passed her and went to the pavilion.

"Then why did you want to become an official in the court?"

Xia Xiaoxiao's voice sounded behind him, she knew him too well.

Ji Lingnan's pace paused, and beside him was the glass lamp that had just been put up, which spread a layer of dark yellow on his face, and he chuckled as if he didn't care, "Serving the imperial court, there are many famous and profitable people, why not?" ”

When Xia Xiaoxiao looked back again, Ji Lingnan had already walked across the small bridge, General Ji came forward and seemed to say something in his ear, and in a hurry, many people appeared in front of him to congratulate him, with that light and breezy look on his face from beginning to end, not much enthusiasm, but also not much resistance.

She remembered that Ji Xiaoer hated this kind of cowardice in officialdom the most.

However, since he hates it, why did he still enter the palace, General Ji is not like an unreasonable person, if he really doesn't want to, how can he participate in the election?

He asked her why she hadn't looked for him for four years, in fact, it wasn't that far, he had been living there on West Street in the capital, and as long as she wanted to go to him, it would be easy to find him.

It's not that I don't want to, but I don't dare, I don't even dare to ask someone to ask, it's just too guilty.

Xia Xiaoxiao even remembered that in the dilapidated small house on West Street, they piled up a small vault, which was full of silver they had saved, and every time Ji Xiaoer stole it or won it from the gambling house, she would put it inside, and she deliberately counted it before entering the palace, hundreds of taels.

This year, there is one civil and military champion, because Beigong Yu specially issued an order, the martial champion and the literary champion are each seated below the chief, Ji Lingnan just found a place to sit down, and in a position next to him, it seems that there is also a person sitting down, and he doesn't care yet.

A palace maid took the heavy wine first, and slowly poured the mellow liquor into the turquoise wine bottle in front of her.

Ji Lingnan has never been a gentle and elegant son, and he doesn't bother to have any etiquette on this occasion, he just feels that these people around him are very noisy, he really doesn't know how Xia Xiaoxiao can stay in this palace for four years, he swallowed it all as soon as he raised his head in his hand, tilted his head slightly, and after looking over the small bridge outside the pavilion, Xia Xiaoxiao was still standing there in a trance.

At this time, he pretended to be affectionate and pretended to be quite similar, he knew too well what Xia Xiaoxiao was virtuous, but he ...... That girl made a dead man's appearance really made him get angrier and angrier the more he thought about it, why did it seem that everything was his fault now?

It was clear that she lied to him first and broke her promise at the beginning, and now she knows to explain, what did she do earlier?

The more Ji Lingnan thought about it, the more uncomfortable it became, he tilted his head slightly irritably, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Impartially, Lu Wuxian had just sat down, and just when he wanted to take a look at who was beside him, he met Ji Lingnan's eyes with a little teasing.

"It turned out to be General Ji Xiao of our red list today, and I am fortunate to meet him."

At this moment, Beigong Langyan, who came with Lu Wuxian, saw the person who came clearly, and chuckled decently.

He can also hear that this person and Xia Xiaoxiao once seemed to have a little unusual relationship, and now that he looks closer, he is a little surprised, a pair of eyebrows like ink paintings, sideburns like knife cuts, even the sedan Beigong Yu is not inferior, not to mention a good skill, he can't imagine how Xia Xiaoxiao will befriend the second son of the general's family in this season when he is outside the palace.

It's just that after a closer look, the undisguised ruffianism and disdain in his eyes are really ...... It's a little similar to his sister-in-law.

Beigong Langyan is the thirteenth prince in the palace, Beigong Yu's sibling brother, and he has always been reluctant and gentle, but after this kind greeting, Ji Lingnan's eyes only fell on Lu Wuxian from beginning to end, and even directly ignored Beigong Rongyan's words, and smiled faintly, "Who should I be who can smash three hundred taels of silver with one hand, it turns out that it is just a little imperial doctor in the palace." ”

The palace maid retreated, and Ji Lingnan picked up the wine jug and poured a glass by herself, "No wonder everyone wants to enter the court as an official, this Yulu is really eye-catching." ”

The words happened to fall in the ears of General Ji, who had just walked over to this side, and Tie Qing, whose old face could not be concealed under the dim yellow and slightly red glass lamp, hurriedly stepped forward two steps towards the North Palace to make amends, "Thirteen princes, Lord Lu, the dog really doesn't understand the rules of the palace, and he has raised a temperament outside the palace since he was a child, I hope the prince and Lord Lu will forgive me!" ”

As he spoke, he kicked Ji Lingnan hard in the leg where he was blocked, "What are you still sitting on, don't you make amends to Lord Wang!" ”

This kid has really been spoiled by his eldest brother since he was a child, and he almost offended the noble concubine in the morning, forget it, who are these people now? One is the emperor's brother, the other is the emperor's doctor, no matter which one he can afford to offend,

Although Ji Lingnan has never restrained these, he doesn't dare to disobey his father's words, he has basically nothing to fear except death since he was a child, but he is biased, and Xia Xiaoxiao has a virtue, he is afraid of his father, and when he is not happy, when he is about to speak, he can hear a sharp paging voice of a eunuch outside, "The emperor has arrived!" ”

Outside the pavilion, the figure slowly coming from the bridge appeared in the eyes of everyone, and the mighty group of palace people behind him, Xia Xiaoxiao followed beside him.

Everyone knelt down and saluted, Ji Lingnan just glanced at it, and then knelt down with everyone, looking humble and without a trace, "Welcome to the emperor, noble concubine!" ”

At the beginning of the palace banquet, a red carpet was laid out in the pavilion, and the splendid white lotus was spread out in the middle, welcoming the dancers who wore little in the summer, and danced in the center of the pavilion.

Many people flashed a trace of concern in the eyes of everyone under the high seat, although Xia Fu was only a prince and a prince, after Beigong Yu ascended the throne, he basically had no power in his hands, but he didn't expect that the two daughters under his knees entered the palace and were all favored by the emperor.

Ji Lingnan was only two glasses of wine, and when he raised his eyes again, he bumped into Xia Xiaoxiao's gaze again, sneered a little more in his heart, and left the banquet on the pretext of flattery, and went to a place in the imperial garden that was quite less crowded.

At this time, most people's attention in the imperial garden was focused on the gazebo, resulting in the light of the glass lamp in other places, but it was a lot dim, Ji Lingnan only found a rockery, and closed his eyes to rest.

In four years, from Xia Xiaoxiao's entry into the palace, to Xia Xiaoxiao's never being favored, nearly a year ago, there was a conspiracy between Xia Xiaoxiao and successive Yunxiao to kill the first emperor, these things have already been spread among the people, and naturally they did not fall into his ears, he knows too well what kind of person Xia Xiaoxiao is, although she is not stupid, but where can she deal with those conspiracies, not to mention in the face of people like Beigong Yu, he doesn't need to guess much to know that Xia Xiaoxiao was just in the trap of people at that time.

Half a year ago, Beigong Yu announced that Xia Xiaoxiao was seriously ill, but he knew the facts, his father happened to bump into Xia Xiaoxiao when he went to Yue to march to fight, he was taken to Yue by the owner of the Red Guest Building, he didn't know what happened during the period, but he could probably guess that Xia Xiaoxiao's original intention was not to stay in the palace at all, Xia Xiaoxiao only thought that he was angry that she abandoned him and married Beigong Yu, how could the girl who actually sprinkled flowers know, he was just angry that he left the imperial city, why did he come back, is it for her, the so-called love, Is it really more important than her rivers and lakes? Just a Beigong Yu can be more important than the freedom she is looking forward to?

He hasn't had that thing before, and he doesn't want to have it, and the rivers and lakes are also places he yearns for.

Ji Lingnan lowered his head, stared at his palm, and suddenly chuckled self-deprecatingly, but now he seemed to be heading towards a point of no return.

"Heh, I thought it was a lot of backbone, but it turned out that I came here to hide from alcohol."

A voice with contempt and sneer sounded from the side, he was a little drunk, and at first thought that Xia Xiaoxiao was looking for him again, but when his thoughts came back for two points, he realized that it was a man's unique voice.

Because he just wanted to come here to avoid some noisy and staggered sounds, he specially bypassed a small forest of trees and bamboos, and isolated the scene of sheng and singing, and then the man happened to come out of the bamboo forest, and most of his figures were blocked by the shadows under the bamboo forest, if he hadn't been here, he should have been able to detect the appearance of someone a long time ago.

"Hmph," Ji Lingnan looked at the figure who came specifically looking for him, and snorted lightly, "The person who called a little girl to smash the field, where can the backbone be hard?" ”

After speaking, he straightened up, straightened out the slightly messy clothes, the cyan corset was not like the long-sleeved wide robe like Murong Tinglian, but looked capable and uninhibited, and even the hair was extremely neat and tidy, all of which were tied to the top of the head with a cyan and white jade crown, and a green hosta like bamboo was inserted obliquely, clean and neat, but the partial tone and every move looked like a gangster in the market.
