Xie Shaoqing instructed Zhang Yi to put away the chessboard, Jiang Yingyue sat down next to Chu Li, and Xie Zhiling's eyes flowed from Jiang Yingyue intentionally or unintentionally.

Xie Shaoqing saw that no one spoke during the banquet, so he asked Zhang Yi to take a plum blossom hairpin over, and he said: "I will turn this hairpin, and whoever I turn to will sing a song and blow a tune, and it is really okay to drink a glass of wine." ”

Jiang Yingyue wanted to leave a little, but Chu Li, Xie Shaoqing looked very interested, and she couldn't bear to sweep away their interest.

Jiang Yingyue sat in the north, Shanyan sat in the west, Chu Liang and Xie Shaoqing sat in the east, and Xie Zhiling sat in the south.

The mountain smoke turned the plum blossom hairpin, and the hairpin was just facing Jiang Yingyue.

Jiang Yingyue straightened her clothes and said a little nervously: "I'll sing a song to everyone." ”

Jiang Yingyue sang:

"Sijia is a white apple,

Lingering.

If you want to go to the river water,

Nesting,

Sijia people are in difficulty. ”

The sound is like the sound of flowing water, pleasant to the ear, but I can't hear the slightest affection in it.

Chu Liang said with a smile: "Sister, this is the second time I've heard you sing this song, and it's still very good." ”

Xie Zhiling asked, "Miss Jiang, what is the name of your song and where did you hear it?" ”

Jiang Yingyue replied: "This song has no name, I heard it when I was in Zuiyue Tower. ”

Chu Liang smiled and said, "Sister, you sing again." ”

Jiang Yingyue sang again, Chu Liang held his head and looked at Jiang Yingyue, Xie Shaoqing coughed, Chu Liang turned to look at Xie Shaoqing, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

Shanyan picked up the hairpin and turned it around again, just turning to Xie Zhiling.

Xie Shaoqing looked at Xie Zhiling with anticipation, and Xie Zhiling said: "I'll blow "Picking Mulberry" for you, don't laugh if you don't blow it well." ”

Chu Liang ordered someone to take a flute and handed it to Xie Zhiling.

After Xie Zhiling finished blowing, Chu Liang said with a smile: "Today can be regarded as a blessing for ears, the third brother blows it really well, right, sister." ”

Jiang Yingyue was distracted, Chu Liang patted her on the shoulder, and she said, "It's okay." ”

Xie Zhiling stared at Jiang Yingyue with a little dissatisfaction, hoping to see what she was thinking from Jiang Yingyue's eyes.

Jiang Yingyue turned her face away and stopped looking at him.

Chu Liang looked at Xie Shaoqing, and Xie Shaoqing said to Shanyan: "Continue to turn the hairpin." ”

The mountain smoke turned the plum blossom hairpin for the third time, and this time it went to Jiang Yingyue again.

Jiang Yingyue muttered: "Why is it me again, forget it, I'll have a glass of wine." ”

Shanyan poured a glass of wine and handed it to Jiang Yingyue.

Jiang Yingyue drank it all, and Chu Liang said on the side: "I didn't think that sister, you have a good amount of alcohol." ”

Jiang Yingyue put down the cup, and Xie Shaoqing said: "It's not fun to have less people, let's play something else." ”

While talking, Ruyang and Chen Guan came.

Chen Guan saw that Jiang Yingyue was not as restrained as before, Jiang Yingyue greeted Ruyang and Chen Guan generously.

Xie Zhiling didn't know that Ruyang and Jiang Yingyue knew each other, so he asked Ruyang: "Lizhen, when did you and Jiang Niangzi meet?" ”

Ruyang said: "I met at the Seventh Brother Mansion a few days ago. ”

Chu Liang was very happy to see Ruyang, Xie Shaoqing said: "I said just now that there are few people, but so many people have come in a blink of an eye, we can continue to play." ”

Chu Liang told Ruyang the rules, Ruyang listened to it and was eager to try, and Chen Guan accompanied Ruyang.

Everyone played until noon, until Zhang Yi came over to remind him that it was time for lunch, and everyone stopped playing.

After Jiang Yingyue had lunch, she took her leave. Xie Zhiling saw that Jiang Yingyue was gone, and also got up to say goodbye.

Xie Zhiling walked next to Jiang Yingyue, Jiang Yingyue ignored him all the time, and when Jiang Yingyue walked home, Xie Zhiling stopped her and said, "Don't you invite me in to sit?" ”

Jiang Yingyue stopped and said, "Your Highness is a nobleman, I can't afford to invite you." ”

Xie Zhiling said: "You have a heart. ”

Jiang Yingyue said: "But I have no intention, this highness must have known about it a long time ago." ”

Jiang Yingyue went in after speaking, Xie Zhiling was a little helpless, and then left.

Jiang Yingyue sat down on the bed as soon as she entered the room, Chu Liang and Ruyang were very happy at noon, they drank a lot of wine, and persuaded Jiang Yingyue to drink some.

Jiang Yingyue woke up thirsty at sunset, she poured a cup of tea and drank it, the tea was cold, and she coughed a few times after drinking it.

Jiang Yingyue saw that Chu Liang and Ruyang were so happy, and she was indescribably envious in her heart.

She suddenly felt a little lonely, she felt too lively in the Chu Fence Mansion, and now she felt cold when she went home.

Zhao Zhong and his wife made dinner, and Jiang Yingyue barely ate a bowl and couldn't eat it.

Chu Liang and Xie Shaoqing read a book together at night, and Chu Liang recalled Xie Zhiling's reaction when he saw Jiang Yingyue, and only felt that something was wrong.

Chu Liang patted Xie Shaoqing's arm with the book and said, "Do you think that the third brother and Jiang Yingyue already know each other, but today the third brother also specially asked Jiang Yingyue's name." ”

Xie Shaoqing said: "The third brother asked me before if there were any outsiders at home, and Jiang Yingyue was still living in our house at that time. ”

Chu Liang asked, "Could it be that the third brother had something to do with Jiang Yingyue before?" ”

Xie Shaoqing said: "The third brother has had a wife before, and I haven't heard that the third brother has any romantic debts. ”

Chu Liang didn't deal much with the princes, so he knew too much about the princes.

Chu Liang asked, "Why did the third brother's wife pass away?" ”

Xie Shaoqing said: "She died of illness, the third brother's wife is very gentle, and the third brother likes to travel everywhere and make friends, so he is indifferent to her." ”

Xie Shaoqing said with some regret: "My father once told us that the third brother is the most literati prince among the princes. It's a pity that the third brother won't notice the third sister-in-law's thoughts, so that we all know that the third sister-in-law has complaints about him, but he doesn't know at all. ”

Chu Liang couldn't help but feel sorry for the third sister-in-law who had never seen her before: "It's a pity, why did that girl tell the third brother her thoughts." ”

Xie Shaoqing said: "I don't know about this, the third brother is very sad, he hasn't married anyone else until now." ”

Chu Liang sighed and said, "It's a pity that they are too bad, and the third brother is also ignorant." ”

Xie Shaoqing said: "Did you say before that the third brother would have had anything happen to Jiang Yingyue?" This is unlikely, the prince usually rarely goes to the land of wind and moon, let alone what happened with the singer and dancer. ”

Chu Liang didn't believe it: "When I first arrived in Linjiang City, I didn't often see you sitting in the Zuiyue Tower. ”

Xie Shaoqing pretended to be reserved and said: "I'm just going to listen to the tune, I'm not here to see you." ”

Chu Liang smiled: "I didn't expect it, you paid attention to me at that time." ”

Chu Liang thought of Jiang Yingyue again, and said, "I, Sister Jiang, I'm afraid I won't marry in the future." ”

Xie Shaoqing was puzzled and asked, "How do you say this, she is not too old." ”

Chu Liang sighed and said, "She said, because she used to be a Qin Ji, so few people will marry her." ”
