Hung Yuen Villa

The autumn wind sends cold, the moonlight is bright, and the shadows of the trees are reflected on the ground, swaying slightly.

On the smooth and cold marble table in the courtyard, several exquisite blue and white porcelain plates hold delicate and attractive desserts, wafting aroma, the tea is hot, exuding bursts of fragrance, making people salivate, at this time the tea is exquisite, the moonlight is like water, which may attract the literati to appreciate the moonlight and chant a few lines of poetry.

But Li Shijie didn't seem to be in the mood to appreciate it, but he just inappropriately ordered his entourage Ming He to bring a wine jug and drink it by himself, and there was a faint smell of wine in the air. Minghe wanted to step forward to dissuade him, but he was glared back by Li Shijie's eyes several times, and at this time, a figure quietly approached, with a burst of jasmine fragrance on his body.

Minghe saw Su Kexin coming, like a savior, and hurriedly trotted over to meet him, "Miss is here, please go and persuade the eldest young master! ”

Su Kexin looked at Li Shijie with an inexplicable expression, and ordered, "You retreat first! ”

Minghe hesitated to leave, his eldest young master was in such a state, he really didn't feel at ease, he looked at Li Shijie, and then at Su Kexin, Su Kexin smiled slightly, "Okay! Go down!

Minghe sighed, shook his head helplessly, and left, Su Kexin walked over and sat opposite Li Shijie, unceremoniously pinched a piece of dessert and ate it, "Cousin, what's the trouble? Or, don't you like the taste of the dim sum I made?"

Li Shijie stopped the movement in his hand, raised his head and looked at Su Kexin in a daze, his eyes were already a little blurred, as if they were covered with a layer of fog, and then smiled faintly, "Kexin is here, are you also here to drink with me?"

As he spoke, every breath and inhale exuded the smell of wine, Su Kexin coughed lightly, poured himself a cup of hot tea and drank it, only to relieve the smell of wine rushing into his nose, and frowned, "Cousin, how much wine have you drunk here?" You can't drink it anymore, be careful to make your uncle angry when he sees it." Your relationship with your uncle has finally eased..."

Li Shijie smiled stupidly, and his speech seemed to be a little slurred, "At this time, the moonlight is just right, the refreshments are exquisite, and there are beauties to accompany you, so it doesn't hurt to drink some wine." Dad couldn't say anything. After that, Li Shijie's hand began to grasp Su Kexin's wrist restlessly, causing Su Kexin to frown and forcibly endure it.

But Li Shijie didn't let Su Kexin go, his hands were even harder, and he actually dragged Su Kexin to his side, Li Shijie squinted his eyes, picked up the wine glass in front of him and sent it to Su Kexin's mouth, "Come, have a drink with my cousin." ”

Su Kexin had a ball of qi in his chest, and finally couldn't control it, and flicked open the wine glass, and the wine glass fell to the ground with a crisp cracking sound, and the strong wine spread wantonly, and the smell of wine in the air seemed to be stronger.

Li Shijie was stunned, as if he was frightened, but he refused to stop there, and still dragged Su Kexin's wrist stubbornly, Su Kexin concentrated his internal force into the palm of his hand, flipped his palm, and hit Li Shijie's wrist, 'Uh!' Li Shijie was in pain, and let go of his hand embarrassedly, but he inadvertently saw Su Kexin accidentally revealing the pattern on his arm, which was the symbol of Lingye Palace! Li Shijie's pupils suddenly constricted, and he gasped.

Su Kexin's anger did not decrease, his brows became more and more frowned, his voice also raised a little, and he was still a little cool, "Cousin, you drank too much, the wine hurts your body, it's better to drink less!"

At this time, a rush of footsteps came from far and near, it turned out that Minghe was really worried about Li Shijie, and did not follow Su Kexin's order to go back to the room to rest, but went directly to the residence of Li Muyang's wife Ke Zhen'er, first, for fear that Li Shijie would be drunk and do something rude, and second, only his wife could persuade him to say a few words.

As soon as the two entered the courtyard, they saw that the two of them were in such a stalemate, Su Kexin seemed a little unhappy, and Li Shijie was already drunk and dazed, and he didn't react when he saw Ke Zhen'er coming.

"Auntie. Su Kexin ran into Ke Zhen'er's arms, a little tear oozed from the corners of her eyes, her voice was a little choked, and she couldn't hear the cold air just now, "Cousin, he drank too much, and he grabbed my wrist just now and talked nonsense, which scared people to death." After that, I couldn't help but sob.

Ke Zhen'er raised her eyebrows, holding back the anger in her heart, and comforted, "Okay, it's okay, you go back to rest first, I'll scold him." Then, he instructed the maid Cui Zhen who came with him to send Su Kexin back.

Ke Zhen'er frowned tightly, without saying a word, she stepped forward and slapped Li Shijie in the face, Li Shijie habitually slammed into the hard marble round table, and the pain through the skin and flesh went into the bones, and he seemed to be more awake.

Hurriedly stood up, not caring about rubbing his hot cheeks, "Mother." ”

Ke Zhen'er was angry, and raised her eyebrows, "Look at what you look like, people can look at you sadly and boring, and come to persuade you with good intentions, you are good, if you let your father know, it will be a good fight! You can't stand the harmony between father and son in the department, right?!"

Li Shijie seemed to have just come back to his senses, his eyes showing guilt, "I... I was drunk and confused. ”

Ke Zhen'er was furious, and sighed heavily, "It's late today, go back to the house and sleep well, and tomorrow morning, you go to Cuizhuyuan to apologize to your cousin." ”

"Oh. Li Shijie responded embarrassedly, Ke Zhen'er looked at Ming He who was standing stupidly on the side, and said angrily, "What are you doing standing stupidly?! Don't help the young master back to the room to rest!"

"It's... It's..."Minghe came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly helped Li Shijie, who was full of alcohol, to walk back to the room, and the green stone on the side cleaned up the mess on the stone table in the courtyard and on the ground.

"Young master, slow down. Minghe reluctantly helped Li Shijie to the bed, lit the candles on the candlestick, the firelight spread the circle of light, illuminating the dark room, Minghe twisted a hand towel to wipe Li Shijie's face.

Li Shijie opened his eyes, and the drunkenness in his eyes was gone, but a little deeper, Minghe had followed Li Shijie for many years, and he understood that his master was just pretending to be drunk and exploring something. So while wiping his face, he called tentatively, "Young Master, are you better?"

Li Shijie snatched the handkerchief in Minghe's hand and threw it into the basin on the side, the handkerchief fell into the water, splashing, rippling, just like Li Shijie's heart.

Although Li Shijie did something that satisfied Li Muyang, the relationship between their father and son eased. But after all, some things will involve Li Zifeng, and they may bring him a lot of trouble. Although I hope that he will take refuge in himself again, I also hope that he will be well. So, he struggled in the contradiction between forcing Li Zifeng to completely break with Ouyang Ze and take refuge in himself and hoping that Li Zifeng would be all right.

But for the sake of Hongyuan Villa, he still did what he hated the most before. After doing this, it will be extremely boring, so I will drink myself tonight and drink to relieve my sorrows. But to his surprise, Su Kexin would appear in his residence, even if it was a cousin, Su Kexin should not come as a girl, especially late at night.

Recalling Su Kexin's small movements in front of him during the day, and the strange feeling he felt every time he saw her in recent days, he felt that Su Kexin didn't seem to be as innocent as before. So he planned it, deliberately drunk and flirting, wanting to see her reaction, and sure enough, the few moves that couldn't help but expose herself, as well as the unique symbol of Lingye Palace on her arm!

He originally thought that Su Kexin was just a little suspicious, or for some benefit. But I didn't expect that. She has long been involved with the Lingye Palace, and with the pattern on her arm, it seems that her status in the Lingye Palace is not low.

Although Hongyuan Villa had already been secretly involved with Lingye Palace, knowing that Su Kexin was a person from Lingye Palace at this time still made him feel heartbroken!

"Big young master?" Ming He looked at Li Shijie in a daze, thinking that he was really drunk and unconscious, and lost his mind, and called out uneasily, "Big young master, are you okay?

"Not necessarily. Li Shijie came back to his senses and sighed heavily, feeling inexplicably heavy in his heart.

Ming He saw that his young master sighed and lost his soul, and said worriedly, "Young master, or ......."

Li Shijie was already upset, but now he heard Minghe's constant nagging, and his eyebrows were stained, "I said no, I don't need to! I'll just sleep, it's not early, you can go back and rest!"

"Oh... Then you should rest early. Minghe walked out of the room softly and closed the door.
