Chapter 15: First Date
The summer is scorching, the scorching sun is baking the earth, and the cicadas and frogs are chirping and the birds chirping in the courtyard of the Lemon Fragrance Pavilion.
Li Luansong rarely got up early in the morning, and picked out a goose yellow with a white cardigan, which looked refreshing and elegant on her body.
After thinking about it, he deliberately put on a hat for himself, and then went out.
The carriage stopped at the door of the Drunken Immortal Building, and Li Luansong went upstairs alone into the private room, took off his hat and fanned the wind.
This drunken fairy building is the place he has carefully selected for repeated comparisons, not only the environment is good and the dishes taste good, but the private room is very decorated with great affection, which is very suitable for private relations to talk about things.
Well, yes, intimate relationships, I'm afraid there is no one in this world more intimate than the relationship between the two of them.
Thinking of this, Li Luansong actually felt a little hot. Quickly rubbed his ears and began to pour tea, hoping that the big lady would like it.
Today, there is a market on the street, and the street under the window is so busy with traffic, shouting, selling, and the sound of bargaining wafted into his ears, this down-to-earth feeling made him feel very relaxed.
After a while, the door of the private room was pushed open, and Li Luansong saw Shen Qu, he was wearing a moon-white straight dress, the whole person was straight and straight, with a gentle smile on his face, which was really familiar and unfamiliar.
Li Luansong didn't expect that he could look so elegant and elegant.
"Your Highness has been waiting for a long time." Shen did perform a female ceremony.
"Sit down, no outsiders, no formality." Li Luansong gestured and poured her another cup of tea.
Shen Qu also looked at Li Luansong, and said with a smile: "I was amazed by you at the palace banquet last time, I didn't expect Your Highness to dress up like this, your eyes are really good, and you look better than me." ”
"Really?" Li Luansong glanced down at his clothes and said, "You are the same, making me look more elegant, like a scholar." ”
Shen did cover his mouth and laughed.
After greeting each other and not talking again, the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became a little strange, except for the gurgling sound of boiling water in the red clay oven.
Li Luansong drank tea cup after cup, and didn't know what to say for a while, this atmosphere really made people feel prickly.
Shen Qu stroked the hanging hair, raised his eyes and glanced at Li Luansong, the other party was also looking at her, their eyes met, as if they were burned, they quickly dodged, and their ears were red.
"It should be easy to find here." Li Luansong was the first to speak, "This is the place I specially selected for you, it is very famous." To book in advance, the owner is very good at doing business, Xiao Er is smart and clever, the dishes are delicious, and the environment is also excellent, have you ever been here? ”
I really had nothing to say, Shen was just about to speak, the door was pushed open, Xiao Er came in with the menu, glanced at Li Luansong and was stunned for a moment, and before the two of them could open their mouths, they went out, and even took the menu.
Li Luansong was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, I will dismantle my platform just after this boast.
"Little Er......" He just wanted to call Xiao Er back, the door was pushed open again, and the shopkeeper came in with a smile on his face.
When he entered the door, he bowed over Li Luansong and said, "Boss, you are here." ”
Li Luansong: ......
Seeing Shen Cheng looking at him and smiling on the other side, what else didn't he understand, this is her shop.
Li Luansong cleared his throat and said, "I'll ask a friend to talk about something, if there is anything delicious, just go up." ”
The shopkeeper said well, turned his head and glanced at Shen Qu again, bowed lightly, and asked: "I don't know if this guest has any taboos, or what he likes to eat, let's prepare." ”
Li Luansong said: "No need, you just prepare it according to my taste." ”
The shopkeeper was stunned, how could anyone treat him like this.
Sure enough, Shen did smile and said, "Please ask the shopkeeper to pick up a few more special meat dishes, especially that plate of braised elbow." ”
Li Luansong blushed and stopped: "No, no." ”
Shen did say that he wanted it, he wanted it.
The two excused themselves like this, and stunned the shopkeeper: this is stingy in the treat, but the guest does not regard himself as an outsider.
In the end, according to Shen Qu's words, he ordered a few special dishes.
Li Luansong smiled a little embarrassedly, and continued to add tea to Shen Qu: "You don't have to take care of me, I am free and free now, and I can eat whenever I want." ”
Shen Qu smiled and said, "Since you eat together, you have to be happy for both of you." If Your Highness likes it, let them leave you a room and come every day. ”
Li Luansong smiled and said, "No, no, hey, I admire you very much." ”
He said from the bottom of his heart, and the woman in front of him almost subverted his perception of women for many years.
She is not a delicate girl who sheds tears at every turn in a wealthy family, nor is she a princess like Li Le who is unrestrained and does not know the taste of sorrow, nor is she a short-handed and domineering housewife in the family......
She knows poetry and songs, is good at writing articles, is diligent and intelligent, can make money and is very kind.
Li Luansong sighed silently in his heart again: Zhang Chengru, Zhang Chengru, you are the number one blind fool in the world.
"It used to be just a small shop, but my father started running it little by little, and then bought this shop."
Shen did see that he didn't speak, so he took the initiative to open the topic.
Li Luansong nodded and asked, "How many shops are yours on this street?" ”
Shen Qu said: "This Qinglong Street is mine, as well as Xuanwu Street and Baihu Street next door, except for the Vermilion Bird Street where His Royal Highness lives, half of which was requisitioned by the royal family, and the remaining half is also mine." “
After saying that, she made a silent gesture, "I never mention these things to anyone. ”
Oh, then just mention it to him, Li Luansong was inexplicably a little happy in his heart, and remembered what Zelan's girl said: This Daye looks like it is his Li family's dynasty, but whose family is it, it's really hard to say......
What is there to say, Li Luansong feels that it is obviously her Shen Zhen.
Shame! How did he have a feeling that Li Ghost saw Li Kui.
"Your Highness doesn't need to cover it with a hat when you go out in the future, it's generous and comfortable, anyway, the shopkeeper will recognize you."
Shen Qu looked at him with a smile, the sun hit her face, and her eyelashes were dyed with fine gold, so soft, it was simply radiant.
Li Luansong said, "The last time we met, we were in a hurry, and many things were not discussed clearly. ”
Shen Qu nodded and said yes, "How did you say the two of us became like this?" ”
"I don't know." Li Luansong shook his head, "You remember what you were doing before the exchange that day." ”
Shen did say that he went to sleep, "I felt uncomfortable with heat stroke, so I went to sleep, and when I woke up, it was like this." ”
Then he asked Li Luansong: "What was Your Highness doing that day?" ”
Li Luansong thought that he owed money at the time, and said "I want to be a little lady", but I couldn't say this, so I said vaguely: "I just finished practicing and slept too." ”
The two of you look at me, I look at you, and say in unison: "Sleep." ”
Shen Qu said: "It seems that you have to sleep." ”
Li Luansong shook his head: "No, how much sleep have you slept these days, hasn't nothing happened?" ”
It happened that the shopkeeper outside the door brought in a tray of dishes, and accidentally heard the last two sentences of dialogue, and an old face blushed to the base of his neck: The young man now is really Meng Lang......
The shopkeeper lowered his head and entered the door without speaking, which made Li Luansong and Shen Qu inexplicable.
Li Luansong: Did the shopkeeper drink?
Shen Qu: He doesn't drink alcohol, is he sick?
Shopkeeper: Can you two not openly discuss such an embarrassing topic......
Before they could speak, the shopkeeper fled.
Shen Qu said: "Your Highness, don't worry, everything is providential, let it be." Doesn't Your Highness like the food here, so he simply lives every day happily. ”
Li Luansong said, "Respectfully".
After a glass of wine, he glanced at her and said with a smile: "Actually, this is not very bad, you see how good you are to me, better than I have done myself." The key is that you still enjoy it, and I'll take this opportunity to help you repair the Zhang family, so that they don't dare to bully anymore, not only that, but I have to provide for you and beg you to ......"
Shen Qu smiled happily and said, "I believe that Your Highness has this ability, so I will thank Your Highness first." ”
Li Luansong said with some pride: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”
Have another drink.
"Xiaole is full of praise for the dim sum you make." Li Luansong said: "I like it too. ”
"Really?" Shen was obviously very happy, and he felt a sense of relief: "I heard my father-in-law say that His Royal Highness likes to eat heavy meat, and I am also worried that you don't like those sweet pastries. ”
Li Luansong said that he liked it all, "I didn't think it was delicious before, but the main thing was that you did it well." ”
Look, our Royal Highness King Jin can visibly speak.
The dishes were delicious, and the two of them drank some wine lightly, and Li Luansong's face was flushed.
Shen did eat very gently, slowly, she sat in the sun, and the whole person looked bright. Li Luansong was attracted by a jade carved dragon wrench on her thumb.
Isn't this my father's thing, how did it get into her hands?
Probably sensing Li Luansong's eyes, Shen Qu also glanced at the jade wrench, and immediately took it down and handed it to him:
"This is rewarded by His Majesty, because the article is well written."
With a proud and shy smile on her face, Li Luansong took the wrench and looked at it, yes, this is it, this is something that my father has never left.
Li Luansong: ...... Was his father so generous to him?
Shen did see that he was stunned and asked, "What's the matter, Your Highness, is there anything wrong?" ”
"No, it's just weird." Li Luansong returned the wrench to him, "This is given to my father by the emperor's grandfather, it is said to be an ancestral heirloom, you can get it, it means that your father really likes you." ”
Shen did smile and said, "I like Your Highness, why are you confused." ”
Li Luansong also smiled: "My father has so many sons, why do I never think he likes me?" ”
Shen did not say it was right, "Your Majesty just prefers His Royal Highness, and the Queen Mother thinks so too." Compared with the Second and Fifth Highnesses, and several other Highnesses, it is obvious that as long as you make a little achievement, Your Majesty will be very happy. ”
"But I'm often lazy." Li Luansong smiled heartily, "I often follow the second and fifth ways." ”
"I don't think His Royal Highness doesn't understand, but I'm just too lazy to care about them, just like I'm too lazy to pay attention to the Zhang family, I'd rather be scolded and bullied than take care of their trivialities, Your Highness said that I was right." Shen Qu tilted his head to look at him, with a playful expression.
Li Luansong nodded and said, "Yes, yes, that's it, it's annoying." ”
Shen Qu said: "Now that the imperial court is short of manpower, there will be a decree on the official system after the imperial examination, and the second prince and the fifth prince have begun to recruit talents, and I will pay attention to it." ”
Li Luansong nodded: "These literati seem to be weak, but in fact, the tone in their hearts is the most hard, and their thoughts are deep, and the things they recognize will be serious to the end, I admire them in my heart, and I feel that if they are just used for a while, they don't have to work blindly, it's not my style." ”
Shen said yes, and then lowered his head a little shyly and said, "I asked Zhang Chengru to be in charge of the imperial examination, in fact, I wanted him to be busy, so that His Highness could live more comfortably." ”
"I know, I understood it with a look from you that day." Li Luansong smiled, "We have a pretty tacit understanding." ”
How to put it, it's the feeling that all of a sudden there is someone in this world who believes in you and supports you as firmly as yourself, and that feeling is very grounded.
Li Luansong advised: "You can just watch and do these things yourself, just the same, don't be too tired, you must exercise when you have time." ”
Shen Qu nodded: "I will." By the way, the small painting drawn by His Highness last time was really good, and the action was vivid, but I didn't understand much about what the story was in the book. ”
Li Luansong was confused: "Talk book? My little paintings? ”
Shen said yes, "It's the martial arts, some villains are flying kites, some villains are walking wooden stakes, and there are two villains fighting against each other......"
Li Luansong covered his face and sighed: "That's a practice map drawn for you, not a book." ”
Shen Qu: ...... Is it so advanced, and the practice picture is like that? It seems that the princess is right, she really saw too much when she was a child.
"I'll draw it for you again, start with the simple, it's too complicated for you to understand." Li Luansong has a kind of helplessness about chickens and ducks.
"That's right, that's okay." Shen Cheng said embarrassedly, "I thought it was a book, I also helped you add flowers and plants and a house, and there are a lot of emotions...... Section ......"
Li Luansong covered his face: ...... Mom, help.
Shen Cheng said: "Look, how stupid I am, just as stupid as you look at the account book." ”
Li Luansong said no, "You practice kung fu much more stupidly than me reading the account book." ”
She covered her mouth and smiled with peach blossoms on her face, and Li Luansong also laughed helplessly, and the noon sun shone down through the diamond-shaped pane, forming a mottled shadow, and also illuminating a faint golden light around them.
When I walked out of the inn, it was already three moments.
The two said goodbye, got into their respective carriages, and went in different directions.
However, there were two groups of people behind him, one following Shen Qu and the other running with Li Luansong.
