Looking at Jun Hanlin's leaving figure, Chu Ling smiled. His life was becoming more and more interesting, and he began to like this kind of life.
'We need to open the tavern as soon as possible.'
Thinking of Li Qian who had come to cause trouble, Chu Ling thought, 'If you refuse the will of the Duke of Sundong and fail to hand over the marriage certificate, you will eventually face oppression. If you compete with such a wealthy family for your wealth and wealth, you can say that you have no chance of winning. , if you want to gain an advantage, you must find another way.'
Now that he has decided to do something, Chu Ling will not change his mind, at least not now. He really wants to learn how strong the Shunguo Duke's government can be.
Why do I have to do what you tell me to do?
Chu Ling didn't like that condescending attitude.
Chu Ling stood up and walked out of the room. A wisp of cool breeze blew over her, making her feel relaxed and happy.
Spring and summer change as the weather changes.
The sky, which was originally reflecting the golden light, suddenly became filled with a few dark clouds. The sky gradually became dark, and the rain fell down like a torrent.
crackle~
Chu Ling stood with his hands behind his hands, looking at the rain curtain in front of him, feeling very good. It had been a long time since he watched the rain with such calmness.
Life only lasts a few decades, why should we live in the eyes of others?
The rain is getting heavier and heavier.
There are no traces of pedestrians on the streets of the monastery. Outside the pavements along the street, there are many people taking shelter from the rain. Some are anxious, some are irritable, some are relieved, and some are peaceful, outlining the real human world.
"Second brother! Where are you from?!"
In the car driving under the rain curtain, Li Qian glared at Li Kun irritably, frowned and asked: "Why did you take me away? If it weren't for you, I would have demolished that guy's tavern today."
"Tear it down in front of Brother Liu?"
Li Kun picked up a piece of pastry, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it carefully, "Brother, haven't you ever thought about why Brother Liu appeared in the tavern opened by Chu Ling?"
"How would I know."
Li Qian rolled his eyes and snorted coldly.
"Sister, what I said is true."
Li Kun smiled and shook his head.
"Stop talking about sister!"
Li Qian raised his fist and shouted: "If you fart, just let it go. You're so literate, you look like a poor scholar!"
After saying that, Li Qian grabbed a few pieces of pastry angrily, stuffed them all into his mouth and chewed them, making Li Kun's mouth twitch.
"Since the Wangyou Lake Poetry Club was held, Brother Liu has been appointed by Jiang Zhongzi to be responsible for the preliminary selection of Zhaoyan Academy. Only by falling in Brother Liu's eyes can he accept Jiang Zhongzi's comments."
Li Kun clapped his hands, looked at Li Qian and said, "What do you think is the reason that allowed Brother Liu to leave Wangyou Lake and come to the practice workshop?"
"You mean that guy participated in the Wangyou Lake Poetry Club?"
Li Qian frowned.
"I'm afraid that's the case."
Li Kun nodded and said: "And the third princess's personal maid, Lian Xin, also came with brother Liu. It is said that brother Liu was busy with the primary election and did not know what happened in the past few days, but do you think the third princess would not know? ?And I discovered that Brother Liu didn’t know that Chu Ling and Sister A were engaged.”
"What does this have to do with me tearing down that guy's tavern?"
Li Qian was confused and looked at Li Qiandao with a frown.
Li Kun looked speechless.
"Of course it's relevant."
Li Kun sighed softly: "Brother Liu A, finding out by yourself, and finding out from us are completely two different results. After all, the third princess is involved.
No one in Xanadu knows that Sister A has a very good relationship with the third princess, and they talk about everything. Brother Liu even said he wanted to marry Sister before he was crowned.
Now that my sister is not in Xanadu, but something like this happens, should we think about her?
Did you know that after Chu Ling left that day, my mother sent people to visit every family in our house and asked them not to spread this matter? "
"Is there such a thing? Why didn't I know about it?"
Li Qian said in surprise: "Why did mother go to such trouble and just send someone to arrest Chu Ling..."
"I call you stupid, but you are really stupid."
Li Kun laughed angrily, "When is it now? The seven academies jointly held a poetry meeting. Your Majesty attaches great importance to this matter. If you dare to cause such a thing, do you think the six doors are just decoration?"
Li Qian: "..."
"Mother must think more than us."
Li Kun lifted up his robe sleeves, narrowed his eyes and said: "Using force is definitely not possible. After all, there are many scholars gathered in Shangdu who dare to do something outrageous. If it makes a big fuss, Liumen will never dare to sit idly by and watch. But if others Yes, Liumen will still take care of my Duke Shun."
"Then let's play with literature?"
Li Qian said uncertainly.
"Wait a minute."
Li Kun smiled and said: "With the temperament of the third princess, if you make such a fuss today, she will definitely know that she will definitely come to Chu Ling then. Let's wait and see first."
Hearing Li Kun talk about this, Li Qian frowned. He was even more confused now. It was obviously a very simple thing, why did it have to be so complicated.
Where can Xanadu be so simple?
Seeing what Li Qian was thinking, Li Kun shook his head with a smile, stretched out his hand to lift the curtain, and looked at the rain curtain outside the car. The rain was getting heavier and heavier.
…
Wangyou Lake, a pavilion somewhere.
Huangfu Jingyu sat on the stone bench, looking at Wangyou Lake with phoenix eyes. Under the dark rain curtain, dozens of painted boats were cruising in it, and the looming lights set off a different kind of charm.
Xiao Zhiyi and Lian Xin stood aside, seeing their princess silent and showing different expressions.
From Huangfu Jingyu's knowledge of what happened today, especially when Lian Xin brought back the envelope and reported the matter truthfully, Huangfu Jingyu stayed here.
A dark shadow appeared in the rain curtain outside the pavilion.
Xiao Zhiyi and Lian Xin looked at him warily. When they saw who it was, they both saluted and said, "Greetings to the young master."
"Princess, do you have anything to say to me?"
Liu Chengfeng held an umbrella, walked into the pavilion, and looked at the silent Huangfu Jingyu.
"Yes, but I need to clarify some things first."
Huangfu Jingyu narrowed his eyes and said, "Some things are different from what I originally thought. Since you are here, let's take a look at this poem."
After saying this, Huangfu Jingyu raised the envelope he was holding.
"Did Chu Ling do it?"
Liu Chengfeng glanced at Lian Xin, walked towards Huangfu Jingyu, put down the oil-paper umbrella, lifted his robe and sat on the stone bench aside.
"He doesn't know my identity, but he guessed your identity."
Huangfu Jingyu said in a calm tone: "Now I am more and more curious about where this Chu Ling comes from and what he wants to do when he comes here."
"For the princess to say this, it seems that Chu Ling has quite a lot of secrets."
Liu Chengfeng took the envelope with a smile and took out the piece of letter paper, "I am also very curious about Chu Ling now."
After saying that, Liu Chengfeng spread out the letter paper and opened his eyes slightly when he saw the content on it.
"This poem!!"
Liu Chengfeng looked at Huangfu Jingyu in shock.
"One day the great roc rises with the wind and soars ninety thousand miles."
Huangfu Jingyu looked sad and stood up, "What you said is absolutely right. Chu Ling has too many secrets. I need to find out clearly before I can tell you what I know. Li Qian and the others went to find Chu Ling." Ling, it has something to do with you too."
Um?
When Liu Chengfeng heard this, he frowned and stood up, wanting to ask. However, thinking of Huangfu Jingyu's temper, he knew that nothing would be gained by asking now.
"This poem..."
"I've given it to you. You can give it to Mr. Jiang, keep it for yourself, or burn it."
Huangfu Jingyu was not in a good mood and turned around and walked out of the pavilion. Seeing this, Lian Xin hurriedly opened the oil paper umbrella and chased after him. Xiao Zhiyi followed closely, leaving Liuchengfeng alone in the pavilion.
