The grape pulp rolled to the ground, and the wine glass held by Wei Heyan paused in mid-air. There was only a splash sound, and water was splashed by a heavy object.
The whole place was silent.
Xiang Xiao fluttered a few times, drank some water, and shouted to the boat: "Si Yiluo! Help, help! I, I can't swim..."
"Save, save..."
Si Yiluo had enough of watching him flopping around, so he plunged into the water and fished him out of the water.
"Are you awake?"
Xiang Xiao sprayed water from his mouth and held her shoulders tightly.
"No such thing! I also have good intentions..."
Before he could finish speaking, Si Yiluo pushed his head into the water again.
"I see you're not awake yet! Are you awake this time?"
"Okay, is it okay if I was wrong? Pull me up quickly!"
Xiang Xiao gave up when he drank the lake water and had a fishy taste of mud and grass in his mouth. Si Yiluo grabbed the ladder on the boat and pulled him up. The two of them lay soaked on the deck.
"I'm going to be beaten to death by you! How can there be a killer like you!"
Xiang Xiao complained confidently.
"You will die if you cannot learn to swim. Drink more water and you will learn."
"Why don't you stand down and wait to see my joke?" Xiang Xiao lost his temper at the beauties gathered in a circle above his head, and then said to Si Yiluo, "Okay, then you teach me."
Si Yiluo took off his shoes, poured out the water from his shoes, squeezed the water from his clothes, lifted the wine jar and handed it to him. The two of them sat on the deck and clinked glasses without changing their clothes, raising their heads and pouring the wine in a high-spirited manner.
It was a youthful and frivolous thing that Wei Heyan had never experienced before.
"Lord Governor, I will give you some wine."
The governor's eyes were so full of resentment as he stared at Master Si and Prince Xiang that Si Hai was afraid that he would not be able to think about it, so she raised the jug and filled it for him. The wine was spicy, the most common rough wine in the market, and it choked him and made him cough.
He looked at Si Yiluo's back and his cough worsened, but the girl didn't even look at him, as if she was completely unaware. She quickly drank a jar of wine and hugged another jar with Xiang Xiao.
They drink so much that no matter how good the wine is, it is just like eating peonies.
Wei Heyan felt tired and went back to the cabin to find a guest room to lie down.
The room on the ship was not big, and there was a window on the side. The night breeze was blowing, and the hearty laughter on the deck could be heard. He didn't pay attention deliberately, but the girl's voice always mixed in with the night breeze through the window.
his ears.
Hasn't she noticed that he's not on the deck yet?
Different from the quiet here, it seems more lively outside the window.
The weather was too hot and all the officials were impatient, so Emperor Yao simply skipped the morning court meeting. The officials only had to go to their respective yamen to discuss matters, list them and report them, and wait for the imperial pen's approval before issuing them for execution.
In this way, Si Yiluo didn't have to go to the palace to attend court in the morning, and everyone below could do their own thing. She occasionally skipped work for a whole day, and no one said anything.
Xiang Xiao is even less afraid. He saved up a month's vacation and was able to rest for four days.
"You won't come home until you get drunk tonight! Come on, drink!"
People who sleep too much during the day can't sleep at night. Wei Heyan's thoughts drifted back to three months ago, when the girl asked him in a daze: "Shu Yi, do you really want that position?"
He still remembers how fast his heart was beating at that time, and there was even a little joy mixed in with the panic.
For so many years, he kept this secret alone, fearing that others would find out, fearing that he would die without a burial place, and fearing that his plan would fail...
But every time I dream back in the middle of the night and think about those things in my childhood, and I can’t sleep or eat at night, the most unbearable thing is the loneliness when I wake up with no one to talk to...
She knew his cousin's name and was looking forward to her approach... However, he waited for a long time, but she seemed to have forgotten that day, treating him like a stranger, tit for tat overtly and covertly, like an enemy but like a friend...
For three months, she neither waited for Emperor Yao's execution nor the attack of her political enemies. She was aloof from him, half-enthusiastic and half-indifferent, scratching his heart like a frying pan.
He refused to admit what he was thinking, but he couldn't control his steps towards her.
"Strange, why aren't you drunk yet?"
There were empty wine jars lying all over the deck, and a double image appeared in front of Xiang Xiao's eyes. He remembered Si Yiluo's drinking capacity, Guancheng's most powerful Shao Daozi, and he collapsed after just three kilograms.
She hasn't drunk in so many years, and there are... one, two, three, four, eight, nine, dozens of empty jars on the ground. Why is she still not drunk?
"I, let me advise you..." He spoke loudly and broke off several sentences in one sentence, "Wealth and honor are charming, but sex is a knife on the head. Don't, don't make trouble for men. Your courtesan is probably
No good intentions..."
Either they are after your power or they are after money...
Xiang Xiao was completely drunk. The empty wine jar rolled around on the deck a few times and rolled to Si Yiluo's hand. She had never been so happy in a long time since she came to the capital.
He looked up at the moon, poured the last bottle of wine into his stomach, stood up and staggered to find the hut.
She still had a semblance of reason, knowing that her wine was not very good when she was drunk. There were so many actors and young ladies in the boat, and she was afraid that she would do something.
After vomiting and washing his face, Si Yiluo looked at the person in the mirror. The girl in the mirror had rosy cheeks and looked at her with bright eyes. She stretched out her hand and touched the girl's forehead. The girl in the mirror was looking at her.
A smile.
It's like being a kid again.
The night breeze was cool, but Wei Heyan still felt hot. Just as he was about to get up and go to the deck to cool down, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open. The strong smell of alcohol took over the original fragrance of pear blossoms in the room.
The girl's dried clothes were wrinkled and she walked to the bed and looked at him.
The two looked at each other.
Si Yiluo suddenly stretched out two claws to attack his face.
Wei Heyan easily grabbed her wrist. Not only did the girl not struggle, she took a step forward, raised her knees and put them on the bed, and stretched her other leg forward.
The whole body fell into his arms.
I could vaguely hear her contented tone.
"I can only hold you like this in my dreams..."
The girl's head was buried in his neck, her breath brushed against his skin, and the clear and unfamiliar touch made his heart skip a few beats.
Wei Heyan's limbs were stiff, and his hands still kept grabbing her, but her wrists were already wrapped around his waist.
"The Governor..."
Sihai came back from going to the toilet and saw that the door was not closed. When she entered the door and saw this scene, she was so frightened that she immediately left and closed the door tightly with her hand.
The unbearable sleepiness was instantly replaced by horror. When I opened my sleeves, my arms were covered with goosebumps.
"Mother, Master Si is throwing himself into your arms..."
Si Hai couldn't help but wonder why Si Yiluo fell in love with the governor of his family. Logically speaking, any normal woman would flirt with a eunuch if she had nothing to do! It would be useless to flirt with him, and eunuchs can't have children...
He was thinking about a bunch of plots outside the door, and Wei Heyan inside the room reacted and pulled Si Yiluo out of his arms.
"Master Si, please respect yourself."
The girl raised her eyes and looked at him innocently.
Wei Heyan's throat rolled and his voice was hoarse, "Si Yiluo, do you know who I am?"
Si Yiluo's eyes remained unblinking.
"You are Wei Heyan."
His mind changed and he asked tentatively: "Then... who is Shu Yi?"
The girl's eyes were burning, she tilted her head and thought for a long time, then shook her head.
"have no idea."
Wei Heyan was furious, he knew it clearly last time!
"Who are you?"
"Si Yiluo."
"What is the relationship between us?"
After Wei Heyan finished speaking, a hint of expectation rose in his heart.
