At this time, if Bai Juyi was not sitting beside him, Murong Bai really wanted to recite a pipa line on the spot, not only to express his thoughts at the moment, but also to win the smile of the beauty.

When Li Xiang finished playing a piece, he clapped his hands and shouted, "Li Xiang, well played."

Bai Juyi on the other side also praised, "It flows like a clear spring, like rain hitting a plantain."

"In a few years, I'm afraid you won't be able to play more exquisitely than Master Rare Book?"

He praised Li Xiang, but suddenly turned his eyes to Murong Bai, and said with a strange smile, "Yun Qiao, you are really lucky, I heard that a few days ago..."

As long as he saw Bai Juyi's expression at this time, how could Murong Bai fail to guess what he wanted to say?

Murong Bai hastily stretched out a palm, put it upright in front of Bai Juyi, and shouted, "Huh? Stop it."

After the words fell, he turned his eyes to Lixiang again, and said with a smile, "You play very well, I like it very much."

He and Bai Juyi often come to this Hu Yulou. Some time ago, after a certain drunkenness, something happened with Lixiang, and it happened naturally.

At home, Chunqin hasn't had anything out after two years of marriage. She didn't know that it was Murong Bai who blocked the acupoints on her own initiative, but she thought it was something wrong with her. The matter of Murong Bai taking concubines.

And because of her poor family background and her innocence, Lixiang also politely declined Murong Bai's offer to redeem her body.

But in her heart, there must be some unwillingness and regret.

Especially, after she knew that Liu Shi, the eldest wife of the Chen family, had never rejected the matter of Murong Bai taking a concubine.

At this time, if Bai Juyi is really asked to say some teasing words, it will inevitably be embarrassing to Lixiang, but it is not beautiful.

Sure enough, after hearing Murong Bai's praise, Li Xiang's heart was sweet, but when she met Murong Bai's eyes as vast and misty as a galaxy, she still couldn't help feeling a little pain.

She suppressed the regret in her heart, handed the pipa to Taohong, and then quietly came to sit beside Murong Bai.

Covering his face with his hands, he said with a charming smile, "How can this talent of this slave compare to Master Duan?"

Gently picked up the jug on the table, refilled Murong Bai's cup with wine, and then said with a smile, "Back then, Master Rare Book and Mr. Kunlun were fighting for supremacy, I was so fascinated by it, I just wished I hadn't died sooner." For 20 years, I have witnessed the unparalleled grand scene with my own eyes.”

Hearing this, Murong Bai also remembered the incident that caused a commotion in Chang'an City 20 years ago, so he also smiled and said, "Who said it wasn't?"

He raised his hand and pointed at Bai Juyi, and said, "Le Tian is also a good singer. Last year, I heard that a famous Jiangnan artist would come to Chang'an for a tour, but I couldn't sleep for days and nights because of my excitement."

"How dare you say that?" Bai Juyi was about to pick up the grapes on the table to eat, when he heard Murong Bai's words, he immediately became anxious.

He pretended to be angry, and smiled at Murong Bai, "If you hadn't insisted on dragging me to drink the night before, how could I miss the time and miss that Master Pei?"

After finishing speaking, Que suddenly let out a long sigh, and said, "Think about it, but it still happened last summer."

He suddenly turned his head to look at Murong Bai, and asked aloud, "Brother Tui refused to listen to your persuasion and risked his life to write a letter, but it was also a matter of last year?"

Murong Bai nodded slightly at him, but did not speak.

Brother Tui refers to Han Yu.

Han Yu's Biaozi retreated, but he was only in his early thirties, and because he was the supervisory censor with Liu Zongyuan, so he had a very good relationship with Murong Bai and others.

There was a severe drought in Guanzhong last year, but because Emperor Dezong was poisoned by evil spirits, his body was in good and bad conditions, and it was difficult to go to court to listen to affairs. Jing Zhaoyin covered up the matter and whitewashed the illusion of peace in Guanzhong.

Han Yu couldn't see it, disregarding that Jing Zhaoyin was the emperor's favored minister, he rejected Murong Bai's suggestion of first contacting the important ministers in the court, and taking it easy, and directly sent up a paper of impeachment memorial.

As a result, he was falsely accused by Na Jing Zhaoyin and was relegated.

Murong Bai sighed, "Brother Tui was convicted because of his words, and was demoted to Lianzhou to serve as the Yangshan Commander. It is a pity that I couldn't drink with brother Tui at the poetry meeting a few days ago."

He shook his head and said sadly, "Lianzhou is far away, and we have already arrived at the seaside. Brother Tui will leave in the next year. Counting the time, I'm afraid he has just arrived in Yangshan County."

Bai Juyi suddenly smiled and suggested, "Why don't we offer him a toast?"

Murong Bai smiled and said, "It's exactly what I want!"

But who knew, when Bai Juyi stretched out his hand to lift the wine jug, he found that it was already empty.

It turned out that the last bit of wine in the jug had already been poured into Murong Bai's cup by Li Xiang.

With a sullen face, Bai Juyi shook the flagon in his hand at Lixiang, curled his lips and said, "Miss Lixiang, I'm out of wine."

Seeing his amusing movements, Li Xiang let out another coquettish smile.

"I'll get it now, slave."

She sat up and was about to take the jug from Bai Juyi's hand, but she didn't expect Tao Hong to rush to stand up.

She was sitting next to Bai Juyi and was in charge of accompanying Bai Juyi to drink. She was closer to the jug, so she naturally took the lead of Lixiang.

"Sister, let me go."

Tao Hong made a confession, then moved her lotus steps lightly, opened the door and walked out of the private room.

Murong Bai and the others chatted and laughed freely in the room, but before Murong Bai could talk for too long, the door of the room that had been closed was opened again.

Tao Hong, who looked the same as before, was holding a tray with a jug of wine in her hand, and walked into the room with a smile.

She is one of the beauties in Hu Yulou.

The wine is the best grape wine produced in Gaochang, Western Region.

When Tao Hong closed the door again, Bai Juyi was ready to take the jug from Tao Hong's hand.

But Murong Bai, whose brows had been locked in one place at some point, lightly grabbed his sleeve, and slowly shook his head at Bai Juyi's questioning eyes.

Both Bai Juyi and Lixiang are mortals with naked eyes, and it is difficult to overcome the hidden crisis at this time.
