The shopkeeper sent two pots of fine wine, and the shopkeeper personally brought some exquisite side dishes, and his words were full of apologies and helplessness. Wen Ye raised his head and saw Zhou Ping's embarrassment, put down the chopsticks in his hand and said with a smile.

"Zhou Gongzi, sit down, how can you live up to such food and wine?"

Zhou Ping was a little surprised, he has seen many dignitaries and literati over the years, but none of them dared to face the injustice of the world.

Wen Ye's words also touched Wang Wan'er's heart, and her heart suddenly felt much happier, and she really wanted to become friends with this sister immediately. She got up and pulled Zhou Ping to the table and pressed her chair, and then couldn't wait to raise her glass.

"Sister Wen is so right, Zhou Lang will play you a piano song another day, which is a thank you gift."

"My sister understands me, that's what she means."

The two smiled heartily, raised their glasses and drank freely, Zhou Ping no longer shirked, and the three of them were so happy to drink and laugh. In the blink of an eye, the sun is falling, and the number of diners in the store is increasing.

Wen Ye's alcohol was not good, and he was a little drunk after drinking three glasses, Wang Wan'er continued to persuade the wine, and Wen Ye also wanted to drink it, but he was afraid of getting drunk and making a mistake, so he finally shook his head.

Wang Wan'er didn't insist, let Wen Ye rest aside, and pushed the cup with Zhou Ping to change the lamp, and after ten cups, Zhou Ping was also defeated. Wang Wan'er's interest today was extremely high, she drank the remaining half of the pot of wine, looked at the two people in front of her, and said with disgust.

"You two can't drink too much, it's not as good as that kid Nuan Xin, it's too bad and too bad."

The nurse who served on the side looked embarrassed, it seemed that her young lady had drunk too much today, and she began to talk nonsense. The nurse hurriedly summoned the shopkeeper to go to Wang's house to deliver a message, and asked people to send a carriage to pick up the fourth lady back.

The woman was wearing a black gauze hat and a black cross-collared narrow-sleeved robe with red lotus patterns.

"Oops!"

The woman in black hurriedly stretched out the long sword in her hand, turned her wrist slightly, and straightened the nurse's body with a scabbard.

"I really shouldn't have gone out today, I'm going to be scared to death."

The nurse protected her heart with her hands and kept panting. She was already frightened by Wang Wan'er's anger, and she was almost knocked to the ground just now, how could a woman who was almost forty withstand such a toss.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, are you hurt?"

"No, be careful when you walk."

The nurse no longer cares about the etiquette when she sees her, after all, she has not been hurt. The woman in black bowed, turned around and flashed into the lobby of the restaurant, looked around and walked straight towards Wen Ye.

"The master is in a hurry, we have to leave the city immediately."

The woman in black lifted the black veil in front of her, and this person was an evening photo dressed as a ranger. Wen Ye woke up most of the time when she heard this, and the evening dress must have been an accident in the "Banshan Pavilion", and now she needs to go out of the city in person, which is a major event related to the court. Wen Ye didn't delay for half a minute anymore, and got up neatly and said goodbye to the two.

"Thank you sister for your hospitality today, he will listen to a piece of Zhou Gong's guqin one day, and we will meet again!"

"Sister let's go, we'll meet again another day!"

Wang Wan'er shook her body and slowly stood up, and the nurse stepped forward to help her steady, afraid that she would fall and hurt herself. Zhou Ping struggled to support her body with her arms, but she couldn't stand up after trying, so she had to say goodbye with all her might.

"Miss Wen go slowly, meet again."

Wen Ye nodded with the two of them, turned around and strode out of Qingfeng Building with Wanzhao. Two black-clad guards led their horses and waited for them at the door. Wen Ye took off the white gauze hat on the horse's back and put it on, took the reins handed by the evening photo, stepped on the pedals and turned over on the horse, and the two rode away one after the other.

The sunset is slanting and the twilight is late, and the restaurants and restaurants in the capital are still as lively as in the past, Wang Wan'er looked at Wen Ye's distant figure and praised again and again, and said self-deprecatingly.

"The decisiveness and sassiness in her bones are really enviable, and I, a self-proclaimed chic 'female gentleman', are not as free and casual as her."

The shopkeeper served a pot of sobering tea for the two of them, Zhou Ping drank half a bowl and felt better, and comforted her softly when she saw her depressed expression.

"Miss Wen is indeed resolute, but you are not bad, girl, just less experience."

Wang Wan'er showed her face, and Zhou Lang really knew her best and understood her. In this world, everyone's experience is different, and they are destined to have different opportunities, so why bother too much about taking your own path.

"Zhou Ping, you and your sister have left the matter of leaving the country to me, you and I are commensurate with friends, don't care what outsiders say."

"Absolutely not, you can't be involved in the matter of getting out of citizenship, a woman's reputation is important."

Zhou Ping's scolding alarmed Cheng Nuanxin on the second floor, and he and Mo Yan never left half a step in Qingfeng Building. Mo Yan was very calm from beginning to end, and Cheng Nuanxin was about to collapse now.

Right now, he saw that Wang Wan'er was going to do something stupid for a musician, and he really couldn't look past it, so he got up and was about to rush downstairs. Mo Yan, who had been resting on the recliner with his eyes closed, moved his body, and his thin lips lightly opened to stop him.

"Sit down, what can you do when you go down?"

"yes, what can I do? And in what position should I meddle in her affairs? ”

Cheng Nuanxin lowered her eyes and was silent, sitting on the chair decadently and depressed, looking at her childhood sweetheart who was close at hand and far away from the world, and her heart was filled with an indescribable sourness.

Wang Wan'er downstairs still had a wry smile on her face, so far there are still people who care about her reputation, she can't laugh or cry, and she can't help but start laughing at herself.

"Fame? I was dismissed from my marriage by the Cheng family last year, and my reputation is not necessarily good now. ”

Zhou Ping knew that she was very guilty, this matter had passed for a long time, and it seemed that it still had a great impact on her now. Although she didn't say it, she still cared a little in her heart.

"Miss Wang, I'm ......"

Zhou Ping didn't know what to say with her mouth half-open, and her face, which was already flushed with drunkenness, was even more red from shame at this time.

"Don't worry about me, even if he falls out with Uncle Cheng that day, I won't marry him."

Wang Wan'er waved her hand to signal that Zhou Lang didn't have to blame herself, her relationship with Cheng Nuanxin was set by the two mothers, and they were still in their mother's womb at that time, carefree and ignorant of the world. With the death of the two mothers and the fierce dispute in the court, this family affair is destined to be an unfulfilled promise.

In the eyes of outsiders, she is the fourth daughter of Prime Minister Wang, and her noble status is the stars everywhere she goes, but her father has been the governor of Liangzhou for many years, and the family has long been accustomed to the hot and cold world.

In the past few years since the king moved out, Lord Wang has successively punished the corrupt officials in Liangzhou, and the purge of officials has made the people live and work in peace and contentment, and because of this incident, he was able to return to Beijing and become the prime minister of the court again. In recent years, he has offended many dignitaries and nobles by using thunderous means, so after paying homage to the prime minister again, he has gained a reputation as a "traitor".

Prime Minister Wang never paid attention to this false reputation and the style of the scholars, and his loyalty was in his heart rather than his eyes, which was also the truth that Wang Wan'er knew since he was a child. And Master Cheng, the imperial historian, is a person who is pro-virtuous and far-reaching, and can't rub a little sand in his eyes, just ask him how he would marry his only son to the daughter of the "adulterous minister", this family affair is destined to be a joke.

Wang Wan'er patted her cheek vigorously, wanting to sober herself up, it must be today's greedy cup that reminded her of these old things.

"Don't mention it, I've come to this point, you must no longer use your status and status, what kind of happy untouchables to perfunctory me, those who belittle you are jealous of your talent!"

"The girl is serious."

Zhou Ping waved his hand, he didn't dare to say this. Wang Wan'er rolled her eyes at him, took a sip of tea and continued.

"At the great court meeting on the first day of the first month of this year, the Holy Lord accepted the congratulations of hundreds of officials, and you were rewarded by His Majesty for a song of elegant music. My wish has always been to protect the common people, if I can't even protect your best friend, how can I deal with myself? If you postpone it any longer, you won't want to see me again! ”

Zhou Ping's heart was warm, he went from a son of a family to a lowly musician, and his sister was the only relative, but he also left him a year ago. Today, he has tasted the warmth and coldness of people, and he has long been a person whose heart is like water, and now he is fortunate to meet Wang Wan'er and become a close friend.

"I don't thank you for my kindness, I will remember the girl's kindness!"

Zhou Ping looked up at the sky outside the window, only to feel that the sky was clear, the wind was smooth, and even the breathing was so fresh and smooth, it turned out that people can live in this world so freely and wantonly.

Cheng Nuanxin saw the two of them parting at the door from the window on the second floor, and Wang Wan'er got into the carriage sent by the Prime Minister's Mansion, and her hanging heart completely fell. Mo Yan slowly got up and returned to the circle chair in front of the table, re-brewed a cup of tea, and said casually while drinking.

"Brother Cheng! The past is like smoke, smiling and peaceful. ”

"Brother Mo is right, Fang is the one who is abrupt. What's the point of entangled with her now, hey, I've lost her in the end. ”

Cheng Nuanxin sighed and went downstairs, thought about it and walked in the direction of the back door, his dejected appearance, it was better not to let the sons of the Drunken Immortal Building see it, so as not to bother talking.

Mo Yan also followed out of the private room, the shopkeeper standing at the door bowed slightly, and the two of them got out of Qingfeng Building from the back door and got into the carriage of Mofu, all the way to the White Horse Academy in the west of the city.

Mo Yan knew best that Cheng Nuanxin's frowning like this must be something that he couldn't solve. At this time, no matter where he is, he will go to the White Horse Academy to chat with the banquet master, and the boredom in his heart will fade a lot, and Mo Yan will always accompany him if he meets him.

The White Horse Academy in the west of the city is not too far from Qingfeng Tower, and it is a quiet place in the middle of the noise, and the carriage of a pillar of incense stopped.

Cheng Nuanxin arrived at the gate of the academy and remembered that the academy was resting today, and the boredom in his heart deepened, and he began to feel sad and sad.

"Brother Mo, am I destined to miss it?"

"The human face does not know where to go, and the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze."

Mo Yan stood beside him, raised his head slightly, and looked at the peach blossoms in full bloom in the academy, as if he was emotional.

"Why did Brother Mo chant poetry? Have you ever met a beautiful woman here? ”

Cheng Nuanxin raised his eyebrows slightly, puzzled, and tilted his head as if he was willing to hear the details.

"Since you've missed it, why do you have to stay?"

Mo Yan sighed lightly, and persuaded him to let go at the moment, but he had never really let go.

"Who would want to miss ...... if they could"

Cheng Nuanxin understood what he was referring to, but he didn't want to admit it, if he really understood and recognized it, did it mean that he really missed it......

As the two were talking, a scholar stood in front of the academy at some point, bowed to the two, and said in person.

"Two sons, the banquet master invites you in."

Mo Yan was dressed properly, facing the future White Horse Academy for a long time, and his always casual expression was a little more awe-inspiring.
