Seeing Prince Ding personally greet him, a thought unexpectedly appeared in Leng Yiqing's heart, could it be that the emperor instigated behind his back, so that this fake prince would behave so diligently to himself? If this is the case, he must be careful, the emperor's purpose in doing this is nothing more than to try it, but I don't know what he wants to test from his body?

Although he was suspicious in his heart, he still had a gentle smile on his cold face, and bowed down and said: "I am tired of the prince to welcome him personally, and I dare not be ashamed." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Haoxing Mingrui smiled and waved his hand, "This is my private residence, and it is not a court, so Lord Leng doesn't have to be formal." Come, Lord Leng, I'll take you to visit this garden first, there are a few places that were rebuilt not long ago, and they are worth seeing. ”

Under the hospitality, Leng Yiqing had no choice but to follow the prince who obviously wanted to show off in front of him in the palace. Originally, he didn't have any expectations for the taste of this fake prince, but after this circle came down, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised, and really began to look at this prince differently.

"The garden of the prince looks simple and unpretentious, but it is unique, it can really be described as pavilions and pavilions, scattered, carved beams and paintings, and the shades are suitable. And the real finishing touch is the white stone boat in the center of the lake, which contrasts with the surrounding water pavilion spring pool, red bridge and green willows, like a vivid landscape map of the south of the Yangtze River, which is really an eye-opener for Leng!"

Hearing this compliment from the mouth of Lord Zuo Xiang, who has always boasted of his elegance, Haoxing Mingrui's face couldn't help but show a little triumph, and his tone became more cordial: "Lord Leng has a unique eye, and he actually sees the extraordinary features of that stone boat, admire! Admire! To tell you the truth, I want to build this stone boat by the person who designed this garden for me, and I am still troublesome, so I want him to change it into a pavilion, but he was severely ridiculed!" In desperation, I built this stone boat according to his idea, and it cost me a whole year's worth of silver!"

"Oh, if the prince is not embarrassed, can you tell me the name of the person who designed the garden for you? Leng also wants to ask him to come and spend some time on a new garden that I have bought. ”

That person is Hua Fengshan, the owner of Baicaotang, and he and I have been friends for many years, as long as I ask for help, he will not refuse. Haoxing Mingrui replied unconcernedly.

Hearing the name "Huafeng Mountain", Leng Yiqing couldn't help but be slightly stunned, "It turned out to be the flower doctor of Baicaotang! I didn't expect this flower doctor to be such a talent!" He then bowed his hand and said, "In this way, Lord Lao asked for this flower doctor for me, and Leng thanked the prince in advance!"

Haoxing Mingrui smiled: "If it were someone else, I would naturally not care about this idle matter." It's just because although Hua Fengshan has a good relationship with me, his temper is extremely bad, and he knows that if I take on such drudgery for him, he will definitely count me down. These are all trivial, and I'm just worried that if he treats Lord Leng as rudely as he treats me, won't he make me very embarrassed!"

Leng Yiqing smiled slightly, and said: "If you are a high-ranking talent, your temperament is inevitably different from ordinary people, not to mention that this flower doctor is still known as the 'Holy Hand of the Medical Country' given by the emperor." Leng should be respectful to him, and he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, so please rest assured that the prince would be relieved. ”

"That's fine. Don't worry, Lord Leng, this matter is on me!"

While talking, the two had come to a courtyard with a wide open door, Haoxing Mingrui stopped, raised his hand and signaled, "Lord Leng, please sit inside." ”

Leng Yiqing looked up at the plaque in front of the courtyard gate, which read the word "Willow Garden".

When I walked into the courtyard, I saw willow trees everywhere, as if I was in a green willow forest.

The dinner was set up in a pavilion facing the pond in this willow garden.

At this time, the sky is getting dark, and several delicate bamboo lanterns are hung around the pavilion, and the candle flame illuminates the light and thin cage wall bright and transparent, reflecting the hollow bluegrass pattern painted on it, which is particularly elegant and quiet.

Sitting in the pavilion, the breeze around is blowing, blowing the willow branches by the pool gently, and the undulating shadow is like the sleeves of the old man waving goodbye, gradually disappearing into the invisible distant secluded place, which faintly makes people have a faint sense of sadness.

Pouring a jar of willow leaves and snow that had just been opened for cold clothes, Haoxing Mingrui picked up his wine glass and said: "Today's choice to entertain distinguished guests here is really too simple and slow, but it is just for the sake of being quiet and comfortable, please don't be surprised by Lord Leng!"

Leng Yi hurriedly picked up his wine glass and said with a smile: "The prince is polite! Leng likes this elegant and chic place very much." ”

Haoxing Mingrui also smiled slightly, "I have treasured this altar of willow leaves and snow for many years, and today I took it out to drink with you, a Huizhou person, and it can be regarded as a worthy return." Leng-sama, please!"

Fang Yi drank the cup of fragrant willow leaf snow, and his cold heart suddenly became shocked, and his face couldn't help but change several times!

After a long time, he reluctantly suppressed his thoughts and sighed: "I haven't drunk this wine for more than ten years, and when I taste it today, it still tastes the same as in my memory!"

Haoxing Mingrui didn't seem to notice the slightest strangeness shown by the guest in front of him, but he still drank the wine in the cup by himself, and then sighed with embarrassment, and said: "Since the death of the old man who made this wine, I have not drunk such a fine wine, and it has been more than ten years!"

"What the prince said, but the old man from Huizhou who I mentioned a few days ago?" Leng Yiqing asked slowly, trying to make his voice seem calm and natural.

Haoxing Mingrui nodded and said: "In the past, she would give me three jars of self-brewed willow leaf snow every year, but unfortunately most of them were ruined by me like a whale swallowing a cow! Who would have expected her to pass away suddenly, and the only thing left was this jar of wine." Over the years, I have tasted the willow leaf snow made by other people, but I can't find the crisp and slightly bitter and fragrant aftertaste. It wasn't until then that I realized that I had failed her by drinking so casually!"

Leng Yi sat there quietly listening, but his eyes stayed on the willow leaves and snow. It was only after a long time that he reached out and picked up the jar of wine, and slowly refilled their respective glasses.

"Lord Wang, please!"

Before Haoxing Mingrui raised his glass, Leng Yiqing picked up his freshly filled wine glass and drank it all.

Here, Haoxing Mingrui still sighed there with a wine glass: "As the saying goes, 'clothes are not as good as new, people are not as good as the old', it seems that this king is indeed old, and now I often think of and talk about those old people, whether they are here or not!"

After saying that, he sighed again and drank the wine silently.

Leng Yiqing was just silent and silent. He had already vaguely guessed the true purpose of this feast at this moment, and although there were still many doubts and puzzles in his heart, he forced himself not to ask, because he did not want to step into a trap that was most likely set for him. He kept telling himself that as long as he didn't touch this trap, there was nothing the other party could do about him. Moreover, he could continue to sit here and watch how the other party sang this unattended one-man show.

Who knew that he had just made up his mind to watch coldly, but after putting down the wine glass, Haoxing Mingrui suddenly raised his eyes to look at him, and changed the topic very abruptly: "I don't know what Lord Leng thinks about my recommendation of Song Xingye?"

Leng Yiqing couldn't help but be slightly stunned under his defenselessness, and suddenly had a feeling that he had been tricked! It turned out that Fang Cai's nostalgia and sensationalism were not the point, but just a means to try to disturb his mind, and his real purpose was to test his true attitude towards the emperor's dispatch to the north this time, as he had expected.

If this is the case, then this fake prince's approach is too stupid and ridiculous! Thinking that he has been based in officialdom for nearly 20 years, and after some painstaking management, he has such a status that can be regarded as one person and above ten thousand people today, how can he be easily disturbed by an old thing that is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood?

It's just -- where did this person get this jar of willow leaf snow from? Is this wine really made by her? Is she-really gone?......
