Qin Mo picked up the wine glass and glanced at him, took a few sips of wine quietly, searched for Song Zhaozhao's shadow underneath, and saw that she followed Lu Zhiyan to buy other fireworks, and put them under the colorful sky, he drank all the wine in the cup, dropped the cup, pestle his chin, and said with interest, "Who can I confess to, I'm not interested in women." ”

Si San was stunned, "Huh? The second master is confessing to the man? ”

Qin Mo glared, picked up the empty wine glass and smashed it at him.

Si San hurriedly dodged, smiling while dodging.

Mo Zhide, Wei Yan, Chu Mu and others came up one after another, and when they saw this situation, they were all puzzled, but they stood aside with their arms crossed and watched the excitement with a tacit understanding, and stood by and watched.

Si San caught the cup, straddled his legs, sat on the blue brick stack opposite Qin Mo, took advantage of the cool breeze, and said cool words, "In this world, except for women, there are men, and the second master is not interested in women, so don't I understand that you are interesting to men?" Well, don't stare at me, I'll just say, since you're not, there's no need to be angry, if you're angry, you have to think about it. ”

He coughed, stretched his head over, and asked in a low voice, "Is it Lu Zhiyan or Song Zhaozhao?" ”

Qin Mo glanced at him, "Why didn't I find you so gossipy?" ”

Si Sandao, "It's a lifelong event related to the second master, can I not gossip?" And whether it's a man or a woman, this future will be the second grandmother of our thirteen flying horses, it's normal for me to care. ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand, and Mo Zhide and the others, who were originally observing, came over.

Mo Zhide asked, "What are you talking about the second grandmother?" ”

Si San smiled, "Second Master's wife." ”

Mo Zhide was stunned.

Chu Mu smashed his tongue and said, "Ah, the fireworks just set off are for the second grandmother?" ”

Si San snickered, "Yes! ”

Wei Yan raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and said, "Song Zhaozhao? ”

Si San's eyes lit up, "Clever!" ”

Qin Mo stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead, he really didn't know that once these people left the Cloud Gate, they were actually so virtuous, and they were born with the coldness and majesty of the troops?

Qin Mo was in no mood to discuss with these people the non-existent "second grandmother" in their mouths, so he simply dusted off his cloak and left.

This time, Si San and Mo Zhide didn't catch up.

Qin Mo got off the observation deck alone, and after he came down, Lu Zhiyan and Song Zhaozhao went up again.

The observation deck was very large, and the two of them didn't go to the place where Si San stayed and they didn't meet.

Although the scenery of the Chinese New Year's Eve is very beautiful, Lu Zhiyan wants to stay with Song Zhaozhao all night, but he can't stay outside all night, in the middle of winter and December, it is already extremely cold after two more sounds, although Song Zhaozhao wears thick, but Lu Zhiyan is still worried that she will be cold.

The two of them spent half an hour at the observation deck, and after taking in the entire scenery of Kyoto, they went down.

After that, the two of them traveled together for a while, and then walked back in the gradually cold night, along the way Chunjing and Chunxiang both carried the stove, and let Song Zhaozhao hold it from time to time to keep warm, so when they walked back to the Song Mansion, Song Zhaozhao was hot, and his face looked very ruddy.

Lu Zhiyan looked at her, with the light of the red lantern on his head, looking at her rouge face, his throat rolled, he wanted to kiss her, but he didn't dare, this is different from Baishuzhai, he can do whatever he wants, and now, he is no longer the Lu Zhiyan who can't bear her future life, and she is no longer the soft-hearted Song Zhaozhao who is attached to him, they are not the same as before, and they can't treat this love in the same way as before.

Lu Zhiyan used to just want a love, but now, what he wants is the rest of Song Zhaozhao's life.

Lu Zhiyan stretched out his hand and touched Song Zhaozhao's head, glanced at the gate of the Song Mansion, and said to her, "Go in, I'll come to see you tomorrow when I pay New Year's greetings." ”

Song Zhaozhao asked, "Aren't you going to Wanqing Temple tomorrow?" ”

Lu Zhiyan paused for a moment, and said with a smile, "Well, I almost forgot, then I'll come to see you when I go down the mountain." ”

Song Zhaozhao nodded, said "Happy New Year" to him, and turned around and entered the door.

Lu Zhiyan kept watching her walk in, the door of the Song Mansion was closed before leaving, the next day he went to Wanqing Temple, went to see Lu Zilun, and stayed on the mountain with Lu Runing for two days, on the third day, Lu Runing went down the mountain with him, and returned to the Lu Mansion in old Kyoto.

After doing all this, Lu Zhiyan said to Lu Runing, "Do you still want to stay in Wanqing Temple?" Big brother has been moved back by us, you don't need to stay there anymore, come home with me. ”

Lu Runing glanced at him, didn't reply, retreated out, closed the big wooden door of the ancestral hall, and walked into the courtyard, where she stood and looked at the cold wind and white clouds floating in the sky.

Lu Zhiyan stood behind her, clasped his hands, and looked at the sky.

After the sister and brother looked at the sky quietly for a while, Lu Runing said loudly, "In the past few years in Wanqing Temple, I feel that life is very peaceful, there are no mundane things under the mountain that can make me nostalgic, you shoulder the wish of the eldest brother and find the direction of life, I am very happy and grateful, now that the peace is in peace, with the emperor here, you will not have anything to do with you, I will not accompany you." ”

There was a faint pain between Lu Zhiyan's eyebrows, he raised his eyes weakly, glanced at Lu Runing's side face, and said in a low voice, "You still love Duan Xiao, don't you?" ”

Lu Runing was stunned, and in an instant, her face slid through the turbulent waves like a tide, but she was soon drowned in her self-contained calmness, she sighed lightly, and said coldly, "I don't love him anymore." ”

Lu Zhi didn't believe it, but he didn't force her.

If you really don't love it, how can you hide in the temple.

If she lets go of her obsession with Duan Xiao, she will be willing to accept other men, and there will be more things worthy of her affection.

Lu Zhiyan stretched out his hand, put it on Lu Runing's shoulder, pulled her to her side, and hugged her.

Lu Runing leaned on his arms and said in a tone that could reassure him as much as possible, "Don't worry about me, I'm your sister, I'm more assertive than you, I always know what I should do and what I shouldn't do, I know what I want to give up, I make this decision, I won't regret it." ”

Lu Zhiyan frowned.

Lu Runing patted him on the shoulder and pushed him away, she tightened the long coat and hat on her body, glanced back at him, and said with a smile, "I'll go first, tomorrow Qingzhang will read me the big Buddha scriptures, and I can't miss the time." ”

Lu Zhiyan's forehead twitched, thinking, you have been brainwashed by Qingzhang!

He snorted in frustration and hurried to follow.

Out of the old Kyoto, Lu Zhiyan returned to Yuncheng, and Lu Runing went to Wanshou Mountain.

Back to Yuncheng, it has been overnight, it is the next day, this time the New Year has not passed, it is only the fifth day of the new year, and each family is still walking through the alleys, visiting relatives, and worshipping the New Year.

The streets are very lively, and people are in a hurry.

Lu Zhiyan was riding a horse, wearing a green eagle suit with a thickened black coat, which made his whole person look a little cold, which was very different from his previous appearance of Yushu Linfeng Baijing Sven.

He walked all the way through the second main street with a huge flow of people, returned to the Chang Shi Mansion, handed the horse to the butler, he stepped into the mansion gate, and before he could rest, he asked the butler to prepare a gift, he was going to the Song Mansion to celebrate the New Year.

The housekeeper's surname is Jin, and he was allocated from the palace.

Including the maids and housekeepers in the Chang Servant's Mansion, they were also selected from the palace.

And these people were all picked by Qin Duxue.

Of course, picking the people in the palace to serve Lu Zhiyan was not to spy on him, but just a manifestation of Yunsu's attention.

In Yunsu's heart, in addition to the blood family, Qin Duxue, Du Wansi, Lin Xinzhu, and Lu Zilun are also very important people in his heart, not family, but more like family.

Lu Zilun is dead, so Lu Zhiyan has this position.

When the golden steward heard Lu Zhiyan's order, he immediately called the family and asked him to lead the horse down to feed the grass, and he went to the treasury to prepare a gift.

Ready to give a gift, he went to the main courtyard to reply.

Lu Zhiyan washed his face, combed his hair again, changed into a round-necked robe with a large spike of jade inlaid with a clean and tidy appearance, and put on a snow-white thick mink coat and went out.

He called out to the two family members, carried the congratulatory gifts, and went to the Song Mansion.

Before lunch, the Song Mansion was still lively.

Song Yang, Fang Yiyao and Huo Hai left for Cuixue Villa after the first day of the Lunar New Year, and Feng Ying followed.

Feng Ying went, and Liu Baomi and Liu Dadao followed.

Yuxi Mountain was not selected as an imperial businessman, not because he was incapable, nor because Bu Yutian Pavilion's strength was not enough, but because Yuxiang had already said hello, saying that Bu Yu Tiange was not in the ranks of imperial merchants.

Yunsu didn't force it.

Although he did not join the ranks of the imperial merchants, the friendship is still there, Song Shixian is in Kyoto, Furong Yue is also in Kyoto, and since Yuxi Mountain is here, of course he will come to the door to pay New Year's greetings.

At this moment, Yuxi Mountain is in the Song Mansion.

During the Chinese New Year, the two of them stopped talking about those boring accounts and business, just chatting, drinking, playing chess, and occasionally listening to the sound of the ladies playing the piano on the other side of the yard.

After Lu Zhiyan came, Chang An immediately came to report to Song Shixian.

Song Shixian asked him to bring people in directly and bring the gifts into the warehouse.

Chang An sighed and went down to bring Lu Zhiyan over.

After coming in, the three men sat together and drank, and ate at noon in the house, Yuxi Mountain did not leave, Lu Zhiyan did not leave, and in the evening, Lu Zhiyan went to Furong Mansion at the invitation of Yuxi Mountain and Song Shixian to pay New Year's greetings to Furong Yue.

It stands to reason that Lu Zhiyan has nothing to do with Furong Yue, and this trip is inexplicable.

But Song Shixian pulled him not to lose it, Lu Zhiyan was not a stupid person, he probably guessed that Song Shixian had something to say to him, and he didn't want to say it in the house, so he pulled him outside.

Lu Zhiyan responded to the trend.

For the Chinese New Year, even if Lu Zhiyan has no family relationship with Furong Mansion, Furong Yue is one of the eight imperial merchants, and he is an official in the same dynasty, so it doesn't hurt to sit in the mansion.

In the evening, he had dinner in Furong Mansion, and after eating, Yuxi Mountain returned to Tianzi Shaofu, where he lived temporarily.

Song Shixian and Lu Zhiyan walked back slowly, in fact, they took different paths.

The Song Mansion and the Chang Shi Mansion were not on the same street, but neither of them said this, so they walked along the Fourth Avenue.

The two family members brought by Chang An and Lu Zhiyan followed far behind.

The street lights are still red, stretching the figures of the two for a long time, but there are not many people anymore, and this is Fourth Street, not the main street, which is also a little secluded.

Lu Zhiyan glanced at Song Shixian beside him, and said with a smile, "Just say what you want to say to me, there are few people on this street, and it won't be noisy." ”

Song Shixian put his hands behind his back, lowered his head slightly, and looked at the shadows that flickered under the bright light one after another as he walked forward, and after a while, he said, "I called you out alone to talk about my fifth sister." ”

Lu Zhiyan was stunned for a moment, stopped walking, and didn't leave.

Song Shixian turned around, stopped more than three feet from him, and looked at him.

Lu Zhiyan asked uncertainly, "You want to tell me about Song Zhaozhao?" ”

Song Shixian said, "Hmm! ”

Lu Zhiyan was a little nervous, "What do you want to say?" ”

Song Shixian pointed to the extremely quiet teahouse behind him, "Go inside and have a cup of tea, and talk while drinking." ”

Of course, Lu Zhiyan would not refute, nodded and said, "Okay." ”

The two entered the teahouse.

Chang An and the two family members also followed.

From the outside, the teahouse is quiet, but as soon as you enter, the voices of people spread.

After the name of Yuncheng was changed to Kyoto, the population gradually became dense, and the shops gradually became numerous, originally there were only six main streets, and then it was developed to eight main streets, and perhaps in the future, there will be ten major streets, and there may be a third city gate.

So, there will be no less people.

There is no place for the elegant seat in the teahouse, so Song Shixian asked for a luxury box.

After entering the box, ordering tea, Xiao Er went down, the door closed, Song Shixian didn't care about it, Chang An and Jia Ding stayed outside, and didn't come in, Song Shixian said bluntly, "I want you to marry Song Zhaozhao." ”

Lu Zhiyan was stunned.

Song Shixian raised his eyebrows, "You don't want to?" ”

Lu Zhiyan hurriedly said, "Of course I want to!" After that, he suddenly realized that he had spoken too quickly and too quickly, and his face turned red.

Song Shixian was happy, he said, "You don't have to be shy, I will know about you and my sixth sister in Hengzhou." As he spoke, his smile froze, a hidden pain came out of his eyes, he paused, and said slowly, "Since you have stayed in Hengzhou, you know that I once fell into the disdain of my fifth sister because of Liu Xianxian, and I almost ......."

Song Shixian's fingers clenched on the tea table, very sad and ashamed, "I have a responsibility to her, stop, this is not only because she is my sister, but also because I hurt her before, so I think she can be happy." ”

Lu Zhiyan immediately said, "I know about it, but I never mind." ”

Song Shixian's sad expression eased, looked up at him, and said, "Did you hate me at that time?" ”

Lu Zhiyan shook his head, "No." ”

Song Shixian said, "But I've always hated myself." ”

Lu Zhiyan said, "It's been so long, and now that you're married and have children, don't think about it anymore." ”

Song Shixian said, "I didn't think about the previous things for a long time, I just want to tell you that except for you, I don't worry about handing over the fifth sister to anyone, Qin Mo, no." ”

At the mention of Qin Mo, Lu Zhiyan's expression changed slightly.

Song Shixian said, "You also know Qin Mo's idea of beating my fifth sister?" ”

Lu Zhiyan smiled bitterly and said, "Zhao Zhao is a lovely girl, she saved Qin Mo, Qin Mo saved her, the fate of the two of them is really strange, it is normal for Qin Mo to like her, but what I care about is not Qin Mo, but Zhao Zhao, she probably has a good impression of Qin Mo nine times out of ten." ”

Song Shixian sighed, "I can also see it, that's why I came to talk to you about this." ”

Lu Zhiyan silently played with the drinking cup in his hand and remained silent.

Song Shixian said, "Everyone in our Song Mansion will not accept Qin Mo, and I know very well what kind of character my fifth sister is, so before she really falls in love with Qin Mo, you marry her first." ”

Lu Zhiyan frowned, "I don't want to force her." ”

Song Shixian said, "Then you will do everything you can to make her nod, she is now walking at the fork in the road of feelings, wandering and hesitating not knowing which way to go, someone has to pull her, and the person who pulls her can't be Qin Mo, it can only be you, you have to start quickly, otherwise, with my fifth sister's temperament, once Qin Mo is chosen, even if everyone in our Song Mansion opposes it, she will go on desperately." ”

Lu Zhiyan was very hesitant and expressed his apprehension, "Zhao Zhao doesn't seem to like me very much." ”

Song Shixian said, "You used to be able to make her like you, but now you can't?" ”

Lu Zhiyan choked.

It just so happened that the tea they ordered came up at this time, and the two stopped talking, Xiao Er knocked on the door, put the teapot, tea set, and tea bowl one by one, and said "Slow use of the guest officer" and withdrew.

Song Shixian poured tea from a pot and stopped talking about this topic.

After tasting tea, the two left.

Song Shixian said to Lu Zhiyan that Ye Zhiqiu, Song Mingyan and Ye Yihan would return to Ye Zhiqiu Pavilion after the fifteenth day, and he would let Song Zhaozhao follow and let him watch it himself.

That's the signal.

After Lu Zhiyan returned home, he sat alone in the chair in the large living room and pondered for a while, and then entered the palace and told Yunsu that he was going to leave Beijing for a while.

Yunsu asked him what he was doing, but Lu Zhiyan didn't hide it, he said, "Chase your daughter-in-law." ”

Yun Su was stunned, his expression was stunned, as if he had been struck by lightning, and he didn't move for a long time, but Yun Sisong stretched out his hand and pushed him, he reacted, and suddenly laughed, he put down the wolf's hair, raised his eyebrows with interest and asked, "Chasing daughter-in-law?" ”

Lu Zhiyan said, "Hmm! ”

Yun Su smiled, "Oh, this reason is not okay. He asked leisurely, "How long are you leaving?" ”

Lu Zhiyan said, "I don't know. ”

Yun Su sighed and said, "Go ahead, marrying a daughter-in-law is a big deal." ”

Lu Zhiyan stood still, as if he had something to say and stopped, and he wanted to say something but was a little considerate.

Yun Su probably saw it, so he asked directly, "There is still something to tell me?" ”

Lu Zhiyan lowered his head, "I'm going to chase my daughter-in-law about this, I hope the emperor won't tell General Qin." ”

Yunsu picked the corners of his forehead, a little confused, and thought, what does it have to do with Qin Mo when you chase your daughter-in-law? However, before this idea flashed out of his mind, he suddenly understood that the two of them liked the same girl?

Yun Su smiled, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't say it." ”

Lu Zhiyan breathed a sigh of relief and retreated.

When he left, Yun Sisong held his chin and asked, "Father, didn't you warn your sons and ministers, the monarch is the main country, and the ministers are mainly the king, and they should all take the country's affairs first, and the sons and daughters should be the deputies, and know their own responsibilities?" Why did you let Lu Changzhi leave his post without permission and do the business of his children's love? ”

Yun Su never treated Yun Sisong as a child when he taught him, Yun Sisong's intelligence was also very different from ordinary children, he knew that Yun Sisong was very smart, but when he heard this, Yun Su couldn't help but sigh.

He had only said this to him once.

But he thought that this was too profound, Yun Sisong listened to it, but he shouldn't have understood it, but who knows, he understands it thoroughly.

Yun Su looked at his son, who was sitting on the side of the dragon chair with two arms propped up on the dragon table, and explained, "The way of survival and the way of governing the country are not static, and occasionally when you encounter special things, you need to be flexible. ”

Yun Sisong sighed, very teachable.

Yun Su stretched out his hand and rubbed his head, pulled him up, and said, "That's all for today's recital, my father will take you out to play." ”

Yun Sisong was very happy when he heard that he was going out to play, but he didn't show it on his face at all, at a young age, his emotions were no longer obvious on his face, he sorted out the things at hand little by little, straightened his pants again, glanced at Xu Qianhuai, and followed Yun Su out of the imperial study.

Xu Qianhuai naturally followed.

After the fifteenth solar term, Ye Zhiqiu and Song Mingyan took Ye Yihan back to Yiye Zhiqiu Pavilion, and Song Zhaozhao went with him because he had not been to Yiye Zhiqiu Pavilion, so he went with Song Shixian and Song Mingyan.

Lu Zhiyan also went with them the day after they departed.

Before this, Song Yang and Fang Yiyao, as well as Huo Hai, Feng Ying, Liu Dadao, Liu Baomi and their entourage rushed to Cuixue Villa on the 14th.

Rong Heng, Qiu Shi, Rong Chu, and Rong Xin were all met at the door.

Song Yang and Fang Yiyao are no one else, they are Song Fanhua's second uncle and second aunt, Song Fanhua's father and mother are gone, these two are Song Fanhua's elders, Rong Heng and Qiu are Duan Xiao's master and mother, and they are also half a father and mother, when they heard that the elders on their son's daughter-in-law were coming, how could they not dress up to receive them?

Song Fanhua knew that Song Yang was coming, and she also greeted her at the door.

Duan Xiao is also there.

The carriage stopped in front of the Cuixue Villa, Rong Heng immediately stepped over the steps and walked down, Rong Chu followed, Duan Xiao also followed, Qiu, Rong Xin, Song Fanhua and some maidservants followed.

Song Yang turned over and dismounted, Fang Yiyao was helped out of the carriage by Feng Ying, and Liu Dadao, Liu Baomi, and Huo Hai also turned over and dismounted.

Rong Heng and Duan Zongming are good friends, and he often went in and out of Hengzhou in his early years, at that time he often saw Song Tian and his wife, but he didn't know Song Yang very well, plus more than ten years have passed, as soon as they meet, they are strangers, but after all, they are also people who have gone through strong winds and waves, and they soon greeted them with a smile.

The elders of the two parties talked to each other, and then they hit it off at first sight, and entered the village with a smile.

Song Fanhua followed behind Fang Yiyao and Qiu's family, walking with Feng Ying, Rong Xin, Liu Dadao, and Liu Baomi, Feng Ying took Duan Yue in Song Fanhua's arms, kissed and kissed, teased and teased, Duan Yue couldn't stop laughing, Feng Ying also laughed, looked sideways at Song Fanhua, and said, "Look, Xiao Yueyue likes me a lot." ”

Song Fanhua pouted, "You're not crazy to see if she likes you or not." ”

Feng Sakura said, "What crazy is crazy, my little Yueyue is the most obedient." As she spoke, she gently rubbed Duan Yue's white and fat little face with her fingers, and said with a smile, "Is what Aunt Sixth said right?" ”

Duan Yue chuckled and said softly, "Aunt Sixth is right, Yueyue likes Aunt Six the most." ”

Feng Ying laughed, grabbed Song Fanhua's sleeve, and said proudly, "Look, I will say that Xiao Yueyue is the most obedient, and she is still a little beauty embryo who can talk very well, which is too likable." ”

Song Fanhua rolled her eyes and thought, no, she has taken all the adults and children, masters and subordinates in Cuixue Villa, even she, a mother, feels ashamed.
