Chapter 32 Chasing the Clouds in the Middle Pavilion

"The first time I met her, it wasn't actually in Nanyue." A faint smile appeared on Xi Zhongting's face, very real warmth. "You should know that a steamed sea bass in the Qingyu Building in Lujiang City is worth a hundred taels of silver, right?"

Yan Chaiyun nodded, when he was chasing the wicked, he went south and north, he naturally knew this. I heard that this is worth a hundred taels because of the praise of the prince of Zhongting.

"She and I met in Qingyulou, and at that time, she made my identity clear at a glance. She told me that she needed me to write a poem for her dish worth a hundred taels. At the moment, I wondered how the chef in Qingyulou was just an ordinary cook, not the imperial chef in the palace, how could he make dishes worth a hundred taels. ”

Xi Zhongting's smile deepened, and even his eyes were full of smiles. So she went to the kitchen and teased a plate of steamed sea bass. Steaming sea bass is the easiest way to make it, and it is no different from what ordinary people do. But when I tasted it, I felt that it was worth a hundred taels or less. ”

The taste is very delicious, the fish soup is milky white, the aroma is rich, the meat is tender, and it enters the mouth as soon as it slips, and then it enters the stomach. So I gladly wrote a poem and admitted that it was worth a hundred taels. Qingyulou has been famous since then, and it has been making money every day. ”

Xi Zhongting is a person who is very indifferent on weekdays, as quiet as a book, Yan Chaiyun has never seen him smile so brightly. Carefully pondering Xi Zhongting's expression, this is appreciation, pleasure, and even a little luck.

"I found out later that she made it herself." What a privilege to be able to eat the dishes she made herself.

"Later?" Yan Chaiyun asked. Since I didn't know it when I was in Qingyulou, why did I know it later. Qingyulou has never been rumored that Yili had cooked there. So, she told him later. Yan Chaiyun felt that the wound in his heart was more painful, painful and sour.

"yes, later." Xi Zhongting's mood fell, and he was slightly stunned. "Later, when I met Nanyue, she told me that she was not a person who liked to cook, and that I should repay her for eating the dishes she cooked. So she took me and took her to play in Nanyue. After that, they didn't meet again until they came to Yangxing City. ”

Yan Chaiyun can imagine how pure and beautiful those days were. Playing in the mountains and rivers, unrestrained, free, her laughter must be a flamboyant laughter, wanton, casual, as if she is a young man in fresh clothes and angry horses. Yan Chaiyun showed an envious look, "Brother Zhongting is brilliant, but it's a pity that I'm just a martial artist." Only know how to hunt down criminals, and nothing. ”

Xi Zhongting saw through something, "Brother Yan, she is not an ordinary beauty, she is not happy with talents. In her heart, she already has that irreplaceable person. When these words were spoken, there was already an astringency in my heart. So, it's never whether you're good or not, it's whether she's willing or not. If you know the end from the beginning, why bother with attachment and add trouble.

"There are some people who maybe shouldn't have met in the first place." Yan Chaiyun sighed, but he regretted it after speaking. "No, it's my luck to meet you."

"Bloodthirsty Shura, blood stained red, one is unhappy, and he kills all sides, this is the impression of people in the rivers and lakes of her. She is a little woman, and there are countless people in the rivers and lakes who want her life. She is a woman who bears the great malice of the rivers and lakes, but she does the kindest thing in the world. doesn't argue, doesn't argue, and even nods when others talk about her. When you are with her, laughing and scolding, she can always provoke your emotions, but she makes you helpless. Then unconsciously laugh with her and follow her as she pleases. She has left such a brilliant mark in your life, and then suddenly she is gone. You will be stunned, you will reminisce, you will be lost, and you will feel that life is a lot boring. Brother Yan, am I right? Xi Zhongting looked at Yan Chaiyun's eyes and asked.

A wry smile overflowed from the corner of Yan Chaiyun's mouth, "Brother Zhongting is extremely right, it is true. ”

In a quiet and quiet courtyard, under the turquoise flower and rattan trellises, Chu Jiangli leaned on the chair, his hands supporting his head, his eyes half-squinted, lazy and comfortable. Nan Jiyue sat on a stone bench in the courtyard, holding a page of letters in her hand. I don't know what news was written on it, which made him, who was used to having a gentle smile on his face, frown slightly. Xuan Bai stood behind Nan Jiyue and waited quietly.

"Hypocrite, it's a letter from home, you're going home?" Chu Jiangli guessed, with an undisguised bright smile on his face. It's better to go home early, so you don't have to worry about what he's doing in the dark.

Hearing this, the corners of Nan Jiyue's mouth raised, "It's really disappointing Li'er, I'm afraid I'll have to stay in Yangxing City for a while longer." The birthday banquet of Emperor Liyang is approaching, and if I miss it, it will not be good. ”

Chu Jiangli straightened up and exclaimed, "You want to attend the emperor's birthday banquet, with your current status?" Still, do you want to ......" Chu Jiangli suddenly thought of something, and his heart sank, "I heard that the envoy of Nanyue is a prince, and the specific prince is unknown." In my opinion, if you marry Princess Xi, Nanyue has a better chance of winning. Hypocrite, what do you say? ”

Nan Jiyue handed the letter in her hand to Xuanbai, who bowed and retreated. Then he spoke, "What do you say?" ”

"The emperor is quite jealous of Gaudi, and he can't bear to suffer the princess in the future, this is one of them. Princess Xi has never seen Gao Diyuan, let alone has a good impression of her, this is the second. If Nanyue wants to survive with peace of mind, she must rely on Gaudi or Liyang. If you choose Gaudí, you can only be Gaudí's subordinate forever. Liyang is different, with many variables. Nanyue is attached to Liyang, so she will naturally treat Princess Xi well and dare not slack off. Plus ......"

Chu Jiang changed his words, "As the prince of the first beauty in Nanyue, it will definitely be easier to win the heart of the first beauty in Liyang, don't you say?" ”

"How did Li'er know that Princess Xi would have a better impression of the prince of Nanyue, I have seen Gao Diyuan in Heiling City, which can be called the dragon and phoenix among people. You also have a relationship with Gao Diyuan, a person like him, born as a woman, it's hard not to be tempted. Since ancient times, beauties have been matched with heroes, and they have never heard of the truth that beauties are matched with beauties. There was a hint of temptation in Nan Jiyue's words.

Who knew that Chu Jiangli suddenly laughed, "Hypocrite, do you admit that Prince Nanyue is a beauty?" It's amazing that you can say such things. "As a man, I don't like to praise a man for being a beauty.

"His own skin is born, and some people have given him a good appearance from God, and it is natural to be praised by others." Nan Jiyue was obviously led astray by Chu Jiang again, and began to talk about people's appearances.

Chu Jiangli scoffed, "A hypocrite is hypocrisy, and he is extremely shameless. ”

"It's just, shameless—" Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a glance from Nan Jiyue. Feng Jieyu could only pretend to be aggrieved and moved to Chu Jiangli's side, leaning his whole body up. Chu Jiangli hurriedly pushed her away, a glimmer of danger flashed in his eyes, "Senior sister, how could you come?" ”

"Xiao Li'er, you don't believe in Senior Sister anymore." The wind interprets the words and wants to cry, like a pear blossom with rain. Chu Jiangli's face did not change, like a cold-hearted and hard-hearted negative man. Feng Jieyu had no choice but to collect his skills, and said seriously: "Don't worry, senior sister didn't bring the little meat mound out." Senior sister is not afraid that a certain wolf will take Xiao Li'er away, so she is not at ease. As she spoke, she didn't forget to glance at a wolf in her mouth.

Nan Jiyue poured a cup of tea indifferently, as if she said inadvertently, "There are arbors in summer, don't think about it." There is elm in the south, which can be a good branch. You are not a bird, the arbor of peace cannot rest, and good branches can bear to perch? ”

Chu Jiangli was a little puzzled why Nan Jiyue suddenly chanted poetry. But seeing Feng Jieyu's face turned pale for a moment, his body stiffened. Chu Jiangli's gaze lingered between the two, and an idea couldn't help but pop up in his heart. Good birds choose trees to perch, Nan Jiyue really persuaded her sister to give up good branches, so he is an arbor? She gritted her teeth secretly, and secretly said that Xiaotang was not bad, Nan Jiyue was a big white radish.

"Hypocrite, Senior Sister is the most important person I am besides my relatives, don't have any bad ideas. Otherwise, don't blame me for sabotaging your painstaking plans. ”

This kind of expression is the belief that it is bound to protect the important person. At this time, she was dazzlingly bright. Not to be ignored, not to be violated, and stunningly beautiful. Nan Jiyue was photographed by her brilliance and couldn't take her eyes off it for a long time. Feng Jieyu silently lowered his head and was silent.

"Li'er, sometimes I think that your brain is like the weather. On a sunny day, the sun is shining, and the brain is very good. If it rains, it will inevitably leak a few drops of water, and your mind will be a little unbright. Nan Jiyue's face was serious, as if she was talking about some national event, and there was a little sympathy in her eyes.

"Hypocrisy, Jun, Son!" word by word, as if to tear open his flesh and blood. The red shadow flashed, and the person had arrived in front of Nan Jiyue. First, a trace of sword light flashed in front of Nan Jiyue's eyes, and then the sword shadow was like a curtain, pressing towards Nan Jiyue layer by layer. Nan Jiyue pulled out the jade flute, and the shot was as fast as lightning, blocking every blow of Chu Jiangli, and the sound of tinkling and dinging was endless.

The red shadows and white shadows were intertwined, and Feng Jieyu opened her mouth several times, but her previous experience made her shut up and quietly waited for the two to finish. As is customary, it doesn't take more than an hour to get them to stop. Looking at the two figures entangled in the air, Feng Jieyu was both a sigh and an envy.

One can't see clearly, the other can't discern, but no one can get involved in it. Thinking of the charm of his junior sister, Feng Jieyu couldn't help but gloat a little.

An hour later, Chu Jiangli and Nan Jiyue really gave up. Except for some unsteady breathing, there was nothing unusual. Chu Jiangli was a little thirsty, picked up the teacup and poured a few sips of tea, and said to Nan Jiyue a little unwillingly: "Hypocrite, I didn't think about it, you are drunk in the beauty country every day, and your skills have not regressed."

"Li'er's skills surprise me, you can also be good at sleeping all day, there are a few tricks that I haven't seen you use before."

Hearing Nan Jiyue's words, Chu Jiangli was very proud, "That's thanks to the killers of Gao Di's faction, and they fight to the death every once in a while, and it's difficult to think of increasing their skills." Speaking of this, Chu Jiangli raised his eyebrows at Nan Jiyue and instigated: "Hypocrite, I think this method is very good as a cultivation. Do you want me to go to tomorrow's building today next year and help you out? ”

"It's not necessary," Nan Jiyue sat down leisurely, "Isn't there a ready-made you." "Chu Jiangli has learned their martial arts, and he only needs to fight Chu Jiangli for a few fights.

Chu Jiangli was about to open his mouth to fight back, and when he saw Feng Jieyu's rare silence, he couldn't help asking, "Senior sister, what's the trouble?" She had long noticed that since Feng Jieyu came to Yangxing City, she often looked sad and incomprehensible, watching her stop talking several times. Every time I ask each other, I talk about him left and right. On that day, she once found out that there was a person who made her helpless. This time, I should have thought of that person.

Chu Jiang didn't expect to tell the truth, but she still had this question. Sure enough, Feng Jieyu just smiled and said that it was okay, and then gaged with Chu Jiang.
