Cheng Yang looked along.
The man was wearing a narrow-sleeved azurite round-neck robe. His face was white and beardless, and his outline was feminine. He was smiling slightly and talking to the person next to him.
Lu Ting said: "I found out that although Jiang Yizhou was studying in the Zuo County Duke's Mansion, Mrs. Cheng ignored him, but it was this man. He was just a slave in the County Prince's Mansion at that time, but he became a man. Madam often took the initiative to talk to him, and once she almost ran away with him."
Cheng Yang looked indifferent, "So what."
Lu Ting smiled and said: "You don't have to pretend in front of me. You have to be careful. This person is younger than you and was born a slave. But now he can receive invitations from the minister's order and chat with officials." The discussion, future and ambition are all evident.”
He patted Cheng Yang on the shoulder, "Be careful. I endured it again and again for you, so I suppressed the impulse. They are not me, and they won't tolerate it. You know, your wife is real Very charming.”

Water pavilion.
When the host comes to see the guests, he bows to them one by one.
Jiang Zhao turned his eyes and found that his son was staring at Qing Lingyi intently.
He sneered in his heart, what a coquettish person to be so dishonest even after getting married, seducing his son several times!
It also caused his son to do so many stupid things during this period!
It should be noted that Qing Lingyi, with such a humble and unclear background, would definitely not be able to enter the door of his Jiang family!
That's why he tried every means to organize a feast of flowers and butterflies. There are many women of noble birth in Suidu. Which one is not better than this one named Qing?
"Yizhou," Jiang Zhao reminded without leaving any trace, "Didn't we agree that you should spend more time with your mother today?"
"...Yes, father." Jiang Yizhou lowered his eyelids.
Jiang Zhao took one last look at Qing Lingyi, turned around and left.
Jiang Yizhou is adjacent to Qing Lingyi.
Mrs. Fang was still there, Jiang Yizhou did not dare to look at Qing Lingyi, and talked softly with his mother.
After a while, Mrs. Fang stood up and said, "I'm going to change."
In the waterside pavilion, only Jiang Yizhou was left.
Qing Lingyi was leaning forward, talking and joking with Cheng Anle.
Probably because he was tired, Cheng Anle stopped to eat some fruit.
Taking advantage of this gap, Jiang Yizhou said softly: "I'm very happy that you can come today."
Qing Lingyi smiled politely and said: "Your Majesty has handed over the invitation. General Cheng and your Majesty are officials in the same court. It is difficult to refuse such a warm invitation."
Jiang Yizhou felt depressed when he heard the alienation in her tone.
He picked up the wine glass, drank more than half of it in one gulp, and suddenly said, "Did you know, Yanshan is also here today."
Qing Lingyi turned around instantly, "Seriously?"
There was finally a different kind of liveliness in her eyes. Jiang Yizhou looked deeply at her, naturally happy, but when he thought that this was not for him, he inevitably felt a little sad.
He nodded and raised his chin downward, "That's his sister Chao Lu, don't you recognize her?"
Qing Lingyi raised his eyes and saw the girl with double buns along where he pointed.
He looked about thirteen years old and was eating the fruit plate on the table very attentively.
The thin eyebrows and long eyes are exactly the same as Xu Yanshan. The difference is that the cheeks are rounder and fuller, making them look cute and cute.
"It's really the morning dew," she said with emotion. "They've grown so big that you can't even recognize them if you don't look carefully."
"I specifically asked my parents to invite their brothers and sisters here! You don't know that Xu Yanshan is so great now. He is the servant Shaoqing, and he was personally canonized by His Majesty."
Qing Lingyi smiled lightly.
Unlike Jiang Yizhou, who was born into a noble family, Xu Yanshan was a Man slave, and his father and grandfather were also Man slaves.
Xu Yanshan said that how to raise and train horses is engraved in his bones, and he must become the best horse raiser in Daliang to change his destiny.
It's got to be tough.
When Xu Yanshan and his sister left Zuoxian County's mansion, Qing Lingyi secretly stuffed a lot of dried meat and silver into their bags.
Now it seems that Xu Yanshan has realized his long-cherished wish.
He once said that when he comes back, he can fulfill his promise to her.
Qing Lingyi glanced at Jiang Yizhou, hoping not to be like him, who did nothing but came to lie to her.
"Would you like to ask Chao Lu to come over? You two haven't spoken to each other for a long time." Jiang Yizhou suggested eagerly.
Qing Lingyi shook his head, "No need."
"Why?"
"You should know what the purpose of today's feast is."
Jiang Yizhou frowned. Of course he knew how to choose a wife for him.
"If you have a crush on Chao Lu and want to marry her as your wife, just ask her to come over. If not, don't do it." Qing Lingyi tried his best to maintain a decent and considerate smile.
Many women present admired Jiang Yizhou. If he really called her Chaolu, it would be tantamount to arousing jealousy and hatred for her.
The servant Shaoqing is not a high official, and many people will not be afraid of him.
Chao Lu will be bullied and Xu Yanshan will be suppressed.
"Mother." Jiang Yizhou wanted to speak, but Cheng Anle spoke first.
Qing Lingyi turned around and said, "What's wrong?"
"So sleepy." Cheng Anle rubbed his eyes.
"Do you still feel sleepy as soon as you're full?" Qing Lingyi smiled.
Cheng Anle nodded his head, his body was a little unsteady and he was swaying around.
"Little girl, you are at the age where you can eat well and sleep well." Mrs. Fang came back.
She turned around and told the maid: "Xi Yun, take Mrs. Cheng to Xiangxue Pavilion to rest."
"yes."
Jiang Yizhou turned his head and watched the mother and daughter go away.
Mrs. Fang took the sapphire pot and poured the wine herself. She said, neither salty nor cool, "I was deeply relieved that you didn't fall in love at any time, regardless of gender, like your father. But I didn't expect that you would be worse and covet other people's wives."
Jiang Yizhou was startled.
"You should know very well that she is Cheng Yang's wife now. Even your father has to give Cheng Yang some face, do you think you can take someone away from him?" Mrs. Fang poured a full glass of wine and put down the sapphire handle. pot.
Jiang Yizhou gritted his teeth: "...I met her first."
"so what?"
Mrs. Fang took a sip of her drink and said sarcastically: "I heard that you and your father met General Cheng when you came out of the palace a few days ago. He scolded you so bloody in two or three words that everyone walked out for three miles. Oh, you two didn’t even hold in your farts."
Jiang Yizhou said in a low voice, "It's because of his vulgar language."
"Okay, let's not care about Cheng Yang. This Mrs. Cheng obviously doesn't like you. If she didn't worry about the face of our family, she wouldn't say a word to you. She is sane and not as naive as those girls below. Still full of expectations for love, I dressed up today just to let you take another look at them."
She gestured, "Especially the one wearing a shirt with a lotus pattern. She is the daughter of Lin Xu, the Minister of Civil Affairs. Her maiden name is Ruzhi. She is twenty-eight years old. Everyone in Suidu knows that she admires you wholeheartedly. If she is I am lucky to know that someone likes you equally - that person does not die. So, my son."
Mrs. Fang held her chin with one hand, "If I asked you to choose a girl to sit with you, which one would you choose?"
Jiang Yizhou didn't take her words seriously. Qing Lingyi's words still echoed in his mind.
Driven by some unspeakable malice, he said: "Morning Dew."
"Um?"
"I want Xu Chaolu."
