Yuwen Zhengji was naturally happy when he heard that he had to eat, although Jiang Jiang handed over the copper hot pot to him, and also told the cook in the house how to prepare the hot pot base and dipping sauce.

What's more, eating mutton shabu with Jiang Jiang, boating on Diecui Lake, and listening to her tell a joke from time to time, that is really happy.

Yuwen Zhengji didn't care at all that he could betray his friends for a meal, he said with a smile: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, let's just see you tomorrow evening at Diecui Lake." ”

"So fast? Can you guarantee that the boy will have time to make the appointment? Jiang Jiang asked unexpectedly.

"Without complete certainty, how dare I boast of this Haikou?" Yuwen Zheng said proudly.

If it was before, he wouldn't dare to take on such a big package, but because he knew that he had been more idle recently when he met with the hanging pot boy two days ago, he dared to say this.

"Since that's great, I'll go back and prepare," Jiang Jiang said happily, "See you there." ”

"Don't worry, you can go to my house first, and let's take the car together," Yuwen Zhengji said, "If there is anything extra to prepare, just tell me." ”

The time has been agreed, Jiang Jiang left Yuwen Mansion and went back to Coolie Street to be busy.

This is the first time that Jiang Jiang has taken the initiative to ask a boy to meet, and it is impossible not to be nervous, but fortunately, she is thick-skinned enough to do business.

After Yuwen Zhengji agreed to Jiang Jiang, he immediately sent someone to send an invitation to the boy of the hanging pot, asking him to meet him at Diecui Lake tomorrow evening.

The servant who was sent returned to the mansion after a while, saying that the boy of the hanging pot had agreed to the request, and Yuwen Zhengji was naturally happy to hear it.

So there was nothing to say all night.

Prince Ruyi has been in Zhaojing Mansion for a month, and he has a lot of homework some time ago, and he is really useless.

In recent days, due to frequent snowfall and cold weather, the elderly ladies have caused old diseases, and five of the eight are recuperating at home, and the remaining three are also coughing and phlegm, and the situation is not very good.

Therefore, Prince Ruyi has been very leisurely these days, not only agreed to Yuwen's invitation, but even took the time to visit Prince Zhaojing. Therefore, today's Ruyi Prince's steps are obviously much blower than usual.

As soon as I entered the mansion, I ran into Sang Juechen, who was going out to run errands.

"Prince, my prince should study in Yuanchenzhai at this time," Sang Jiechen said to Prince Ruyi: "The last general still has something to go out, call a maid to come and take you to Yuanchenzhai." ”

Saying that, beckoning to the side, there was a maid coming over.

After entering the courtyard of Yuanchen Zhai, the maid retreated, and Prince Ruyi entered the study alone.

Although the weather outside is very cold, the interior is warm as spring.

Shen Tuwen never allowed to place a carbon basin in the study, which is easy to cause fire, there are many books in the study, and most of them are treasured and unique, and the prince is particularly cherished.

In addition, Yuanchen Zhai always supplies marriage branches, and the charcoal fire is dry and ashy, which is easy to smoke the flower branches, not to mention that the marriage branches have bloomed now.

Therefore, Yuanchen Zhai uses the earth fire dragon, every time the weather is cold, there are servants to burn the charcoal fire, fill in the tunnel from the outside, the heat of the charcoal fire will be evenly transmitted through the underground channel built in the study, so that the heat is even, and the fire hazard is avoided, and the indoor air is clean, one stone.

But what makes Prince Ruyi strange is that Shen Tuwen is not in the study at this time, and he is probably going to the back garden to enjoy the plum blossoms, right?

Prince Ruyi paced slowly in this study, first looked at the marriage branch that had been opened on the offering table, and then admired the ancient paintings hanging on the surrounding walls.

I accidentally glanced at the desk and saw half an unfinished painting.

"When did Brother Wang like to draw?" Prince Ruyi was very curious.

Although Shen Tuwen did not grow up in the palace, the emperor never took his cultivation lightly, and the most basic skills of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting were taught by famous teachers, so Prince Ruyi was not surprised that Shen Tuwen could paint, but he had the impression that Shen Tuwen did not like to paint, and he rarely saw him write.

But the painting on the bookcase is obviously carefully conceived and used with great care.

Although I haven't finished painting yet, I can still imagine how amazing this painting would be if it were completed.

Now there is only half a portrait of a woman.

The long hair hangs down from the shoulders, and the expression on her face is different from the tranquil and quiet beauty in ordinary ladies' paintings. On the contrary, his eyes were full of fear and his face was nervous.

Prince Ruyi frowned slightly at first, and then the corners of his mouth raised a small arc, it seems that it was indeed a smart decision for him to agree to Yuwen Zhengji's invitation.

At this moment, I heard a sound of footsteps from behind the screen. Prince Ruyi knew that it was Shen Tuwen who had returned, so he hurriedly left the bookcase and stood in front of the marriage branch, pretending to admire the blooming flower branch.

"When did the prince arrive?" Shen Tuwen walked into the study and saw Prince Ruyi.

"Brother Wang, how are you doing? I haven't seen you for a while, so I'll take advantage of my free time today to come to the house to have a look. Prince Ruyi smiled and said, Originally, he wanted to complain after seeing Shen Tuwen, because the two Taifu recommended to him by Shen Tuwen a few days ago made him miserable.

But now, it seems, is no longer needed.

"The emperor and empress have been doing well lately?" Shen Tuwen asked routinely, in fact, he only entered the palace a few days ago to pay a visit, but he didn't meet Prince Ruyi.

"Father, queen and queen are all right," Prince Ruyi said with a smile: "I heard that the marriage branch of the royal brother has been opened, and I will take a look today, the rumors are indeed true, can you tell the prospective princess who it is?" ”

"The time is not yet ripe," Shen Tuwen couldn't help but smile: "Then you will naturally know." ”

When Prince Ruyi heard him say this, he didn't ask any further.

The two brothers chatted for a while, because it was almost noon, and Shen Tuwen stayed with Prince Ruyi for lunch.

Although the interaction between the two people is not very lively, it also looks like a group of brothers, friends, and brothers, and a beautiful scene.

But in fact, the two brothers have their own plans for each other, but they don't say it explicitly now.

"Brother Wang, I'm going to go to the lake in the afternoon, I wonder if you can go with Yaxing?" Prince Ruyi asked with a smile on his face.

"You are rarely idle, so I won't go, lest you be restrained." Shen Tuwen was not interested.

"In that case, then I'll have to be on my own." There was a faint disappointment in Prince Ruyi's tone, but it was not sincere.

"The love of the landscape is selfless, and there is no need for many people." Shen Tuwen smiled faintly, he still wants to stay in the study to paint!
