"Miss, if all the flowers and trees are gone, what should I plant again?" There are many flowers and trees in the yard, and it takes a long time to deal with them all. In addition to the planting time, I am afraid that it will be half a month's work.

"Just plant some flowers of the four seasons, and you can watch the arrangement." After pulling out the flowers and plants, the yard was very ugly, and Chu Jiangli went out after he was instructed.

After going out, Chu Jiangli walked straight to a small courtyard to the south of Wangfeng Hall. The small courtyard is not large, and it is not much different from ordinary houses. When you look inside, you realize that this is a rare and good place. The arrangement is skillful, the furnishings are fine, the flowers and plants are expensive, and the trees are in full bloom.

There are stone tables and chairs in the courtyard, and a pot of hot tea and a teacup are placed on the stone table. "Hypocrite, how did you know I was coming? I also made a pot of tea, which is really clever. ”

Chu Jiangli grabbed the teapot and poured a cup of tea and drank it all, "This is Xueding Hancui, you will enjoy it." "As if I was jealous that Nan Jiyue had good tea, I drank it cup after cup.

When Nan Jiyue, who came to hear the sound, saw her movements, her expression was a little strange. His gaze paused on the teacup, then moved upwards to meet her tea-stained lips. This woman, this woman is really ......

"What's wrong?" Chu Jiangli saw that he didn't speak, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, "Could it be that the emperor's poison poisoned his brain?" It's really gratifying, it's great, this kind of thing should be celebrated by the whole world. Chu Jiangli clapped his hands and applauded, planning to find a few fireworks to celebrate.

"After severing relations with the Chu family, he fell out with the Prime Minister's Mansion again, and there is nowhere to go?" Nan Jiyue sat down on the stone bench, her fingers rubbing the rim of the teacup.

"Naw. A hypocrite is worthy of being a hypocrite, and nothing can be hidden from your eyes. Then you, let me stay with you. Chu Jiang approached Nan Jiyue, his long eyelashes flickering.

Nan Jiyue pushed her away, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate for a lonely man and a widow to live in one place." Li'er, for the sake of your reputation, I still won't take you in. ”

"So, you can't bear to let me go to the inn?" Chu Jiangli bit his lip, wanted to speak, and winked at Nan Jiyue. This trick was learned from her senior sister, and whenever Feng Jieyu made such a move, those men all nodded and agreed to her request.

Nan Jiyue frowned in disgust, "Li'er, even if I didn't agree to your request, you don't need to scare me like this." ”

"You bad-mouthed hypocrite!" Chu Jiangli slapped his palm on the stone table, and the teapot flew up in an instant, and was caught by Nan Jiyue.

Chu Jiangli looked indignant, his eyes rolled, and he caught a glimpse of Xuanbai approaching. She said to him pitifully: "Xuanbai, I was kicked out of the house, and now I have nowhere to go. Can you go and help me clean up a room for me to live in? ”

"Oh, okay, Miss Li." When Xuanbai heard this, he immediately agreed. Chu Jiangli raised his eyebrows proudly towards Nan Jiyue, you see, it is really your mouth.

Nan Jiyue's expression turned cold, "Xuanbai, have you forgotten who your master is?" ”

Xuanbai is a little aggrieved, don't you always acquiesce when you leave the girl. What's going on today, isn't it quite happy to hear the voice of the girl? Bow your head, "The subordinates know their mistakes." ”

Chu Jiangli played Laipi, "Anyway, you and I are secretly worried about our lives now, so it's better to make do with it and solve it together." Seeing that he still didn't speak, Chu Jiangli had no choice but to be ruthless, gritted his teeth and said, "Liuchuan, I'll be the head of Liuchuan for you."

Nan Jiyue nodded at Xuanbai and opened Chrysostom, "Go clean up." ”

"It's really unprofitable, never a loss-making deal, hypocrite! If I hadn't been deceived by your skin at the beginning, how could I have been entangled with you for ten years, it's really unlucky. Alas~" Chu Jiangli snatched the teacup in his hand and drank tea as wine.

Nan Jiyue saw that her face was gloomy, as if she was worried, she raised her hand to touch her slightly frowning brow, and couldn't help but say, "Li'er, who made you unhappy?"

Chu Jiangli sighed again, "Do you remember Yan Chaiyun?" ”

Nan Jiyue's eyes flashed, "Li'er said that he wanted to take you in Bicang City that day......" He paused, as if he was considering the words, "The one who eloped?" ”

Elope? Chu Jiang looked at him angrily.

Nan Jiyue looked back indifferently, isn't it? The matter of marriage, the order of the parents, and the words of the matchmaker. As soon as he opened his mouth, he said that he wanted to take the girl away, but didn't he elope.

That's when he thought I didn't have other relatives to say this, Chu Jiangli told him with his eyes.

"He came to Yangxing City, and he was brought to me by the prince of Zhongting."

"Li'er, in fact, the focus of your unhappiness is on the son of Zhongting, right?" Nan Jiyue stared at her, "The prince of Zhongting is the only person you respect, and before in Nanyue, you also traveled with him for a while. His friendship with Yan Chaiyun means that he will stand on the side of Gaudi. And you, after all, have to fight for Liyang. So, you're sad. ”

"Sad? I don't get sad about opposing each other's positions. Perhaps, when the time comes to the real enemy, it will. But at least, not now. Chu Jiangli's words seemed to have a deep meaning.

"And, as far as I know him, he will never get involved in disputes between countries. He only wishes that in this life, he will be free from the mountains and rivers. ”

"Then you ......, you can't ......" Nan Jiyue had a guess in his heart, and this guess surprised him so much that he didn't know what to do. Holding the edge of the stone table with his hand, he snapped the corner of the stone table with a strong click. He was still a little stunned, wasn't it obvious why a woman would be upset that a man would take her to meet another man who loved her?

"Hypocrite, what have you been stimulated by? You need to be masochistic like this. Chu Jiangli broke his hand, the gravel in the palm of his hand had turned into powder, and there were deep nail marks on the palm of his hand. She took a closer look and didn't see any wounds, so she put down Nan Jiyue's hand.

Nan Jiyue didn't say a word, and after looking at her for a long time, she turned around and left. Chu Jiangli looked inexplicable, and he didn't want to think about it anymore, so he went back to his room to sleep.

That night, Nan Jiyue kept her eyes open until the time of the child. He looked up at a crescent moon in the sky, and the cold light sprinkled down, climbing up his unparalleled handsomeness. Still dressed in white, with a jade flute hanging around her waist, the tassel of the jade flute is adorned with a blood-red agate bead that shines with rippling brilliance.

The figure swept up a few times, and came to a lively courtyard. Then a few more swept up and came to the quiet courtyard behind.

Xi Zhongting was standing in the courtyard, looking up at the crescent moon in the night. A few bright stars dotted around, twinkling and twinkling, just like someone's bright eyes. On the night of early autumn, the moonlight is sultry, and the hazy and hazy people in the courtyard are covered with a layer of silver glow. A simple robe without any ornaments, but it was just right for him. He is a son who came out of ancient poetry, and he has a poetic and scholarly atmosphere.

Xi Zhongting raised his head slightly, looking at the tall figure standing on the roof, "Prince Jiyue, since you are here, why have you stood on the roof for a long time?" ”

Nan Jiyue had already stood on the roof with a cup of tea, and this world-famous gentleman stood on the roof and looked at him for a long time, he was really a little puzzled.

"It's just that I feel a little strange that the prince of Zhongting lives in the backyard of the red sleeves." Nan Jiyue flew down and landed in the courtyard in the blink of an eye, without making a sound. The body is elegant, swift, sensitive, light as a feather, and as fast as electricity.

"Jiyue Gongzi is so handsome!" Xi Zhongting couldn't help but praise. He is famous for his flowers without a trace, and he has a deep study of light skills. He has traveled all the way, and he has not yet encountered anyone who is on par with him in light functions. Light work, one in light, two in fast. There are some people who are light and agile but not fast enough, and there are others who are fast but not light enough. It is rare in the world that can take both of the two into account and cultivate to the extreme. I have never heard of Nan Jiyue's medical and martial arts, and I never thought that light skills are so powerful.

He was a hidden man, but why did he expose himself in front of him today? He didn't think that people like Nan Jiyue would deliberately show off their skills, why was that?

While Xi Zhongting was thinking, Nan Jiyue looked at him quietly. Xi Zhongting is famous for his talent, and it was after attending the banquet held by Emperor Nanyue a few years ago. Xi Zhongting won the first place at the laurel banquet, which was quite appreciated by the Nanyue Emperor, and he wanted to be allowed to hold a high position. However, Xi Zhongting had no intention of pursuing a career and politely declined.

has the light power of flowers without a trace, the internal force must be profound, and the force should be good. If he had this heart, his reputation in the rivers and lakes would not be weaker than the three of them. Is he really, just a man who has no desires and no desires, and is only dedicated to poetry and books?

Looking at Shangnan Jiyue's gaze, Xi Zhongting smiled slightly, summoned the child, and whispered a few words in the child's ear. Then he smiled at Nan Jiyue: "The residence of the old man, he has something to leave for a while, so he lives here temporarily." Prince Jiyue, please be seated. ”

Nan Jiyue nodded and sat down on the stone bench, which happened to be the same position as Chu Jiang left sitting yesterday. "Speaking of old people, there was an old man who insisted on living in my yard yesterday. And the old man, Zhongting Gongzi also knows. After speaking, he carefully observed Xi Zhongting's reaction.

Xi Zhongting just smiled slightly, and there was no change in his expression. "What did the princess of Jiyue say? Jiyue Gongzi and Miss Li have known each other for many years, and the tacit understanding is very accessible. ”

"Oh? What do you mean by that? Nan Jiyue watched Xiao Tong put a pot of tea and a set of tea sets on the table, and Xi Zhongting began to make tea in an orderly manner. The cup is warmed, then the tea is washed, then the hot water is poured into the cup a second time, and it is left for a moment before the tea is poured into the cup.

Xi Zhongting invited Nan Jiyue to taste tea, and said, "Yesterday, the girl came here, and she sat in this position."

From this position, you can not only see the courtyard gate, but also notice the movement in the inner courtyard and bring the entire courtyard under your control. If something happens, you can respond as soon as possible.

Nan Jiyue couldn't help but move slightly when she heard this, and her words were tentative, "The look of the person who left the courtyard yesterday was a little unusual, and I was very curious about why?" Did someone do something that made her sad? You know, she's a woman, and few people can really put her in their hearts. ”

Xi Zhongting's hand holding the teapot trembled slightly, and a drop of tea gradually came out of the teacup and dripped on his hand, with a momentary piercing pain. Nan Jiyue took everything in her eyes, her eyes deepened, and the hand holding the teacup tightened unconsciously.

"Is it Brother Yan that Gongzi Jiyue is asking? The matter between the two of them is not very clear. However, I made an appointment with the girl to meet Brother Yan at Yanyi Lake today. Xi Zhongting continued: "Brother Yan found Yangxing all the way from Gao Di, which is rare."

Rare? What's the use of being rare?! An inexplicable anger rushed to his chest, and he was firmly contained. With his understanding of Chu Jiangli, she would not choose him. But he didn't understand what he was angry about, knowing her choice. Why did you come here in the middle of the night, is it really just to have tea and chat with Xi Zhongting?

Xi Zhongting can see clearly, so he has always been able to control the emotions that should not be.

"Zhongting Gongzi just thinks it's rare? I wonder if yesterday's Mengding nectar is as sweet as today? Nan Jiyue put down the teacup, and suddenly an invisible momentum pressed towards Xi Zhongting, as if the air had turned into a boulder, pressing him so hard that he couldn't move. Xi Zhongting lifted his breath, luck, and pushed back the pressure that weighed as much as a thousand catties. The tone is waveless, "The taste of tea will not change." If someone feels bitter, it means that the mood of the tea drinker has changed. ”

Nan Jiyue said with added force, and the invisible pressure was glued on the stone table, "Yes, if the prince of Zhongting feels bitter, it is really bitter." ”

"Ji Yue Gongzi, his heart moves at will, but he moves at will." Before it starts, you know the end, so why bother persevering. He often can't see himself clearly in the game, but he can see clearly.

When the words fell, the two of them stopped together, and a green leaf fell in front of their eyes. Nan Jiyue's expression was complicated, and there was a slight trace of sadness on Xi Zhongting's face, very faint, and disappeared with the green leaves falling in front of him. He was still the man with a strong bookish scent as light as water, like a cup of tea in front of him. "Jiyue Gongzi got the answer, don't you want to leave?"

Nan Jiyue smiled, no longer the gentle smile of the past, but a real smile from the heart. At this moment, he is more sultry than the moonlight. It is the white plant that slowly blooms in the night, dyed with the darkness of the night and the coolness of the moon. But it is as white as snow, as light as frost, and amazingly beautiful. Even if there is extreme darkness behind him, you can't control your steps towards him. As long as you can touch that whiteness, you are willing to die immediately.

Xi Zhongting seemed to let out a very light sigh, not knowing whether it was for himself, or for him, or for her.

"Son Zhongting, goodbye."
